I would have a call with you and your wife talking to her brother. I'd keep it friendly and then ask how he is going to cover the 2nd night. Cash works (penny a point, retail cost of room, somewhere in between), and if he is cash poor some sort of trade. let him work it off.
Let him know that you know what he did and that family helps family and you expect it to be reciprocal.

I've been agonizing about calling to complain because don't want Marriott to bill his CC for the extra night which will cause a family fight. The points aren't worth that, but it bothers me that they would draw the points from my account without my authorization.
Any suggestions?
