The Bliss family are ultra-Bohemian. One Saturday, they all casually announce that they have invited guests for the weekend, and each Bliss is furious!
When the guests arrive, they suffer an uncomfortable tea and then, after dinner, have to play a word game which only the family understand.
The evening is capped by a histrionic display by the whole family which succeeds in sending their terrified guests scuttling away by the first train the following morning.
