My Girlfriend's Mom Read My Texts

On screen

A family lake house with a kitchen island and a bathroom down the hall hosts a long holiday weekend. Ethan is there as Mia's boyfriend. For months he has texted his friends about Mia's mother, Jessie, in glowing and very specific terms. He leaves his phone on the counter while Mia showers. Jessie, wearing a robe, picks it up and starts reading, scrolling back for weeks, and she does not put it down.

   Mia heads to the shower and tells Ethan to stay put. Jessie picks up his phone and asks whether he has been messaging his friends about her. He stammers; she offers him a chance to retract, and he declines. She reads out a line about doing anything she asks, and plans for later, when Mia goes down to the lake.

   Mia heads out, leaving her boyfriend in charge of entertaining her mother. Jessie sits him down and reads a text about cheating to be with her, then one about where he would start, and asks him to show her. Mia calls, saying her mom has been lonely and should have fun. Jessie asks how Mia will feel. Then Mia walks back in for her purse.

How bold it gets

Bold teasing and touching in a kitchen, with the girlfriend on the phone and then at the door. The sources suggest intimacy but show nothing explicit.
