    A few more…

    1. Trapped in his old hometown during a snowstorm, a con artist swindles a family into spending Christmas with him, whilst cops are on his tail.

    2. Not wanting to be alone over the holidays, a con artist seduces a sweet wholesome woman, but must first spend time with her family, whom he grows attached to.

    I can’t figure out whether his main goal/macro intention is to get out of there (and thus get to a locker filled with money) or to not be alone over Christmas.

    The Inciting Incident – he’s on his way to locker of money. His car breaks down. Mechanics say two days. Snow storm happens as well. (The cops on his tail was going to happen later.)

    Anyways – not wanting to be alone in a motel room, he seduces our heroine (the sweet wholesome woman).

    And in order to spend time with her, he must spend time with her weird dysfunctional family, whom he grows to love.

    He then spends a good chunk of time pretending to be something he’s not.

    And then the cops are on his tail…

    Okay…

    Unique hook/twist – he falls for the family!

    The worst thing to happen to him – spending time with this family/trapped in his old hometown.

    Odd couples – charming con artist and wholesome woman.

    Fish out of water.

    Interesting inciting event – trapped in old hometown! Snowstorm!

    The ultimate (blank) from hell – the dysfunctional family.

    Time limit/ticking clock? – (Christmas! Also, it won’t be snowing forever.)

    Dilemma – con artist finds the family he never had and is lying to them.

    When a charming con artist settles down with a sweet yet gullible woman, he must spend Christmas with her dysfunctional family – and unexpectedly experiences the concept of family for the first time.
