Jason and Cynthia are third couple and they are having problems trying to conceive a child, while the fourth couple consists of Shane - a divorced man - who's dating a much younger female. Jason and Cynthia decide to go to a couples retreat for therapy in hopes of saving their marriage and can get a discount on the price if they can get three other couples to come along with them. So they encourage - more so mislead - the others to join them on the retreat, which experiences problems when it divides into two sections. Some laughs ensue as the couples try to save their relationships.
