Overview

After being evicted from their Manhattan apartment, a couple buy what looks like the home of their dreams-only to find themselves saddled with a bank-account-draining nightmare. Struggling to keep their relationship together as their rambling mansion falls to pieces around them, the two watch in hilarious horror as everything-including the kitchen sink-disappears into the Money Pit.
