We have a cousin in a rural part of the country who's always talking about leaving her cowtown. She's a nurse and we have a large hospital system in our city. We figured a lie with elements of the truth would be best, so the lie is she's coming here to work and bringing her kids (hence why he has to leave our 4-bedroom apartment, to make room for the kids).
