His Wife, His Rules

5 episodes · 2 free · checked October 26, 2026 · on Candy by October 6

On his fiancée's work retreat, Jake learns the host runs a decade-old game, and he has been picked to play.

Before episode 1

Dana is one strong week away from a vice president title, and the week is happening at the home of her boss, Marcus Voss. She brings her fiancé, Jake, with one instruction: stay out of the way. Marcus has other ideas. He and his wife, Vanessa, have a tradition with retreat guests that goes back ten years, and this year Vanessa chose Jake before he had even stepped from the car. Saying yes means lying to Dana. Saying no, Marcus claims, costs nothing but a tan.

The people in it

  • Jake: Dana's fiancé, told to stay invisible for a week, who becomes the most watched man at the pool.
  • Dana: Ambitious and fixed on the VP job, she has no idea what her boss is really offering.
  • Marcus Voss: Dana's boss and host, who values honesty about desire and sets the terms of every move.
  • Vanessa: Marcus's wife and the one who chooses, tired of being ignored and intent on Jake's attention.

The two free episodes

Episode 1Free, no account

Marcus sets things up in voiceover: Dana is after a promotion, she is bringing her fiancé, and he wonders how long the man will hold out. Dana's pep talk is brisk. One week, impress the boss, come home a VP, and meanwhile be invisible. An assistant parks Jake by the pool, where Marcus greets him as the fiancé and welcomes him, and Vanessa promises they will look after him very well. Marcus pulls Jake aside for a private talk, men only. He tells him to sit, observes that every man who visits ogles his wife and most pretend otherwise, and waves off Jake's stammered apology. He is not in trouble. There is one question, and Marcus wants it answered honestly: would Jake like to bed Vanessa?

Episode 2Free with a free account

Jake asks if this is a test. A game, Marcus corrects, played on every retreat for ten years. Vanessa watched him arrive and chose him on the spot. Why him? He can ask her tomorrow. The rules are announced as three and somehow arrive as four: only when Marcus offers, never in the main house, Jake gets the casita, and Dana never finds out. Dana, booked solid until four, sends Jake off to make friends. Vanessa needs sunscreen and calls it level one. She complains that the interns look right through her, and Jake fumbles a compliment. Sweet is dangerous here, she warns, then asks him to undo a tie before it leaves marks. Then someone calls for Jake.

Where the free run stops. Someone calling Jake's name is the last sound before the unlocked part runs out, with Vanessa's request to untie still hanging and level one only just begun. Who is calling, and will Jake keep playing a game he never formally agreed to?

What kind of show it is

Comic and controlled, with Marcus as a smooth game master and Jake as a man who keeps apologizing for things he has not done yet. Most of the pull is in the talk, rules and dares and bad timing, while the poolside scenes raise the heat in small steps. Vanessa is the quiet center of power.
