(The scene opens with 4 people sitting on a couch drinking coffee and eating snacks.)
Roger: Well Steve my wife Geneva and I can't thank you enough for inviting us to your house for this Christmas party, it's just been great.
Steven: Oh, it's no problem at all just promise me you wont use my wife Mary's fruitcake as a door stop at your house.
Mary: Oh my, Steven is quite the joker!
Geneva: So does anybody else have any plans for the night?
Steven: Well I just got this early Christmas present from my brother Tom called Catch Phrase.
Roger: All right sounds fun, how do you play?
Steven: Well the four of us separate into two teams and each one of us will give the other team member clues as to what the catch phrase is.
Geneva: Okay let's get going.
(Steven takes the game out from under the table. It's a circular electronic game that has the catch phrases on it.
Steven: Alright since you're visitors in our house we will let you go first. Just hit the little clock on the thing their to start.
Roger: Okay Steven.
(Roger hits the clock and begins playing the game.)

(The game buzzes ending the round for Steven and Mary.)
Steven: Oh honey the catch phrase was "Oriental".
Mary: Oh silly me. I guess its Roger and Geneva's turn again.
(Mary hands Geneva and Roger the game as they are kind of dumbstruck at what Steven and Mary have done.)
Roger: Um yeah okay, I guess it's my turn to guess you start is honey.
(Geneva starts the game.)
Geneva: Okay, you use me when your eating ice cream.
Roger: Uh it's sprinkles, no chocolate syrup.
Geneva: No it's what you use to eat the ice cream.
Roger: Oh, oh it's a spoon.
Geneva: You got it honey.
(Geneva and Roger hug as Mary and Steven laugh along with them.)
Steven: Well I guess we just aren't smart enough for this game.
Geneva: Oh it's okay Steven I am sure you'll get the hang of it.
Mary: Okay honey it's our turn again.

Steven: Oh you're Irish.
Mary: Yeah and I have my own cereal.
Steven: Oh it's Lucky Charms!
Mary: Oh you got it honey.

(Geneva and Roger stare at Steven and Mary almost in complete disbelief.)
Steven: It looks like Mary and I are coming back Rog.
Roger: Uh yeah sure.
Steven: Well it's your turn Roger
Roger: Okay.
(Steven hands Roger back the game. Roger and Geneva begin playing the game less enthusiastically then they had before.)
Roger: Okay honey here we go, I am a side dish in a meal.

Steven: Well not technically but uh I wouldn't take what the white man threw at me in the 60's
Mary: Ooh Ahh-
Steven: My last name is royalty.
Mary: Oh King, Martin Luther King Jr.!
Steven: You got it!
(Roger stands up, furious at what Steven and Mary are doing.)
Roger: How dare you talk about black people like that, my grandmother was black you bastard!
Steven: Whoa, whoa relax there, Roger, we're just making up these clues right on the spot here. I am just thinking of the first thing that comes to mind, its all improv up here Roger, can't you understand that.
Roger: (giving in) Well-
Steven: Hey if the catch phrase would have been "Conan O'Brien" I would have said "I suck". If the catch phrase had been "Gwyneth Paltrow" I would have said "I named my child after a frickin fruit."
Mary: And if the catch phrase would have been "Meet the Fockers" I would have said "Needless sequel".
Steven: Hey you better watch it Mary.
Roger: Oh you're right Steven, hey how about we go to Toys for Tots and give them all the toys our children wouldn't play with.
Steven: You got it Roger.
