As people begin to arrive
Holly: Help yourselves to the spinach dip and other appetizers. We can eat in about thirty minutes. [goes back to kitchen]
Yi-jun: Can we put the rolls on now?
Holly: Sure can. And it's time to get Taylor to come carve the turkey for us.
Yi-jun: I'll finish whipping the mashed potatoes!
Holly: We can set the table, too. I just wish we had good china to serve on.
Yi-jun: Don't worry. No one came here for the fancy dishes!

当大家陆续抵达
荷莉：自行取用菠菜沾酱和其它开胃菜。我们三十分钟内开饭。（回到厨房）
怡君：我们现在可以上面包卷了吗？
荷莉：当然可以了。也到了叫泰勒来帮我们切火鸡的时候了。
怡君：我会把马铃薯泥搅拌好的！
荷莉：我们也可以摆饭桌了。真希望我们有好的瓷器可以端上去。
怡君：别担心。没人是为了精致的餐具而来的！
