This one is called “Nihal & Natasha’s 6-Day Cruise to Cabo San Lucas.”
It follows Nihal, a Sri Lankan husband, and his Russian wife Natasha as they set sail from Long Beach for what is supposed to be a relaxing and romantic six-day cruise to Cabo. Unfortunately for Natasha, Nihal discovers the all-you-can-eat buffet! From seasickness and tequila in Cabo to formal night, the casino, and the frightening final cruise bill, their romantic vacation quickly turns into complete comedy.
By the end of the cruise, Natasha has a beautiful tan, Nihal has gained 11 pounds, the casino has his money, the bar has made record profits, and the buffet manager is requesting a transfer to another ship!
The moral of the story:
A Sri Lankan husband and a Russian wife can survive six days together on a cruise ship… but the buffet may never recover!
