When Alice brought her new boyfriend, Kevin, to meet her parents, she anticipated a warm family dinner. Instead, the evening spiraled into chaos when her father locked Kevin in the basement and called the police, shattering Alice’s world.

Kevin, a mechanic, had finally agreed to meet her family. At her parents’ cozy house, her dad’s reaction was unexpectedly severe. He stared at Kevin with narrowed eyes and tension filled the air. Despite initial pleasantries, her dad led Kevin to the basement and locked him in.

Panicked, Alice called 911. Her father revealed Kevin wasn’t who he claimed to be. Two years ago, a man named Ryan conned her dad’s business partner’s daughter. Her dad recognized Kevin as Ryan, a wedding con man.

Kevin broke a basement window and fled, but the police arrived swiftly. They tracked him using a GPS fitness bracelet Kevin dropped. Kevin was found hiding in an old warehouse and was arrested.

At the station, it was confirmed: Kevin was indeed Ryan. Alice felt a mix of betrayal and relief. Her dad had saved her from a con man. Back home, they ate cold lasagna, reflecting on the night’s events.

Alice realized her family’s love and protection were invaluable. She thanked her dad for his instincts and promised to be more careful in the future. Despite the shock, the ordeal brought them closer. Alice knew she could always trust her family to have her back.
