Jimmy Kimmel Cracks Up Over Audience Member Vacationing With His Mother-In-Law

Jimmy Kimmel turned a mother-in-law and son-in-law vacation into a comedic movie pitch involving a love triangle, with guest Tyler Perry joining the humor on the live show.

  • During the show's Thursday taping on February 12, Kimmel asked if anyone was on vacation and pointed to a mother-in-law and son-in-law who said they traveled from San Diego, prompting laughter.
  • Because the daughter was home with the kids, the pair said the cross‑country vacation was her idea since they 'haven't had a real vacation in a while.'
  • Using a gag, Jimmy Kimmel asked Guillermo Rodriguez whether he would vacation with his mother-in-law for $150,000, comparing the idea to a Tyler Perry movie and saying he'd pitch it to Perry.
  • Ending the bit, Kimmel asked, `How about we go with that?`, leaving the stars in lots of laughs during the show.
  • Referencing film history, he named `The Graduate, Too` and said to the filmmaker `Things took an interesting turn here tonight`, Kimmel proposed comic finales at Legoland or SeaWorld.
