Britney was an obnoxious, inconsiderate brat. But Op was egging Britney's bad behavior on by doing the Good Daughter and Good little Wifie routine. The sugary way she spoke to Britney was gag inducing. I hope no one vomited right onto their plate or fell into sugar shock.
It was appropriate to be helpful but the "Oh, what a good husband" and "what a thoughtful wife" thing was too much. Op jumped the shark.
It's either that or curse at them back. OP chose to kill with kindness.

This. You shamed her. "I look at SIL and say gently, "Britney you should be proud your brother is being a good husband." "

What game is that? I wasn't playing any game. I just wanted to help FIL as I felt bad for it. Also I thought it would be efficient.
Oh PLEASE. You were outdoing yourself to be the Gallant to her Goofus. You were overplaying Good Daughter and she was acting up as Spoiled Brat. You were both making quite the spectacle of yourselves, and pulling the focus away from what it should be: a pleasant holiday.
