I fly into Houston, dinner at someone's house, followed by a game of Taboo. The evening was capped off with some bowling.

Dennis, thinking about all the money our Taboo champion team is going to win
Somebody screwed up, and Sunil doesn't miss a beat
Shibu psyching out anybody he can

Sudha, Sheeba, Tessie on the way to some funky bowling
Our scores are so bad, you HAD to laugh
"We've run out of bowling balls, so we're going to use a large avocado."

You wouldn't believe how fast they saw the camera. They're pros.
Sheeba: "And our next embarrasing icebreaker is..."
Oh, Punctual Prateesh, you're so silly
