A movie based on the popular musical. Wednesday Addams has grown up and found love. She's been dating a medical student named Lucas Beinike, who wants to propose to her. But Wednesday wants to have her family's minds put at ease before announcing, so she invites Lucas and his parents over for dinner, and tells her father not to tell her mother about it until everything's arranged for "The Game." Gomez feels trapped because he never kept a secret from Morticia. Wednesday manages to let her family act "normal" at least until they know the Beinikes better. Lucas's parents are quite snobby, but realise they have a little in common with Gomez and Morticia. Meanwhile, Uncle Fester prevents the ancestors from going back to their crypt, because he wants their help to make love triumph for Wednesday.
