The Rules
Bridgette B is not your typical stepmother, some have called her eccentric, but that's an understatement. She has had a sexual relationship with her stepson, Tyler Nixon, and to keep his stepmother under control he has come up with a set of rules for the pair of them to follow. Bridgette is completely heartbroken since Tyler is now in a serious romantic relationship with Ivy Wolfe. Bridgette B shows up on their vacation and tries to foil his plan of proposing to his girlfriend, she doesn't want to play dirty, she would much rather the three of them got along well, very well if you catch my drift.
