Cid: (opens it) Hey! A lighter, thanks Beth!
Beth: (sipping cocoa) No problem....
Cid: (Flicks his bic and flames fry his face)

(Cloud returns)
Tifa: Here.... uh.... why don't we let Barret open his gift? (Hands Barret a present)
Barret: Uh...... ammo! Thanks......
Cid: Damn.... give Yuffie a present, she is having a fit....
Yuffie: (staring intently at a large present that says "To Yuffie")
Tifa; Open that one Yuffie!!!
Yuffie: (rips into it) Ohhhhhhhhhhh.... what is it?
Beth: (sighs and looks at the group) Who gave her that?
Cid and Vincent exchange silent looks;
Yuffie: (reading the name on the box) Make.... your own...... dildo set? (Looks at Beth) What's a dildo?
Beth: (blushing, glares at Cid and Vincent) I....er... ask Tifa!
Tifa: (grumbles) Don't act so dumb you whore!
Yuffie: This says it only makes em up to eight inches, I want a twenty inch one!
Tifa: then make three and glue them together, just get that damn thing out of here.
Soon all the presents were handed out and everyone was well fed and happy.
