Ep 11. Meet the Parents

In this episode, titled "Meet the Parents," Reba's daughter Kyra brings home her new boyfriend, Dwight, to meet the family. Reba is initially hesitant about Dwight, as he seems a bit odd and is constantly making strange, off-putting comments. However, Kyra is smitten with him and insists that he's really nice once you get to know him.

Despite her misgivings, Reba agrees to have Dwight over for dinner with the family. Things start off awkwardly, with Dwight bringing a surprise guest along - his parents. Reba is taken aback by this, as she had no idea that Kyra's boyfriend's parents were going to be there too.

The dinner quickly becomes tense as Reba and Dwight's parents clash over their differing viewpoints. Dwight's parents are extremely conservative and religious, while Reba and her family are more liberal and laid-back. This leads to a lot of bickering and passive-aggressive comments throughout the meal.

Meanwhile, Kyra and Dwight are completely oblivious to the tension and are lost in their own little world. They seem to be genuinely in love, and Kyra is especially happy to have found someone who accepts her for who she is.

As the night wears on, things come to a head when Dwight's father makes a derogatory comment about Kyra's music taste. Reba, who is fiercely protective of her children, immediately jumps to her daughter's defense and the argument between the parents reaches a boiling point. Eventually, the two sides agree to disagree and the meal ends on a somewhat sour note.

Despite the awkwardness of the evening, Kyra remains steadfast in her love for Dwight and the two continue to date. Reba, while still skeptical of Dwight, agrees to support her daughter's relationship as long as he treats her with respect.

Overall, "Meet the Parents" is a classic episode of Reba that highlights the struggles of mixing families and differing viewpoints. It showcases both the highs and lows of young love, and the lengths that parents will go to protect their children.
