They have each invited a guest for the weekend without the knowledge of the others. The guests arrive for tea where conversation is stilted and eventually grinds to a halt. The scene ends in total and awkward silence. After dinner that night the family insists that everyone should join in a parlour game, charades. The guests flounder, the game breaks up, and everyone retreats to other areas of the house. Judith walks in on each of the couples kissing and theatrically plays out the evening in surprise. The next morning the guests come down to breakfast where the family members soon join them and get into an argumentative discussion over nothing. The guests sneak out, and the Blisses return to their "normal" family life.
