Marvin was still chatting with Shego and Flo as the camera panned the stage. All the players were back in their places.

"We're back," said Marvin as he stepped back to center stage. He then walked up to the smaller podium at center downstage, "So let's start the Family Feud!"

"Let's get the ladies up here," said Marvin as the matriarch of each team walked up to him and stood before the buzzers at each side of the podium.

"All right. Hands in place, please." He pulled a card from an envelope, "We took an internet poll. The top answers are on the board."

He paused to breathe before he asked, "Name a use for a laser."

Both women hit their buzzers. The lights on the Possible side of the podium lit up.

Marvin said, "Ann?"

Dr. Possible thought a moment, "Cauterization."

This prompted applause from her family as well as calls of "Good answer."

"That's when you burn something to stop the bleeding, right?" said Marvin.

Dr. Possible nodded.

"Definitely a doctor's answer," commented Marvin. "Is 'cauterization' up there?"

A buzzing noise came over the sound system. The audience gave a collective sigh. Several of the Possible family expressed surprise.

"No 'cauterization'." said Marvin in a sad tone. He faced the older woman. "Mrs. Lipsky, You can take control if you can match an answer on the board. Name a use for a laser."

Mama asked, "Don't they use lasers when they work on your eye?"

"Eye work?" asked Marvin in response.

"For cataracts," said Mama.

Flo clapped. Ed and Drew joined her giving applause to the answer.

"Let's see," said Marvin. He then faced the board and yelled, "Show me cataracts!"

The board changed to show that, of the five answers, the third down was 'Eye Surgery'. A bell sounded.

Marvin said, "Number three." He then asked Mama, "Would you like to play to finish the board, or pass it to the Possibles?"

The audience and several of the Lipsky team shouted suggestions as Mama turned to her family.

Mama then said into the podium microphone, "We'll play."

Mama and Dr Possible took their places back at the other podiums as Marvin walked up to Drew Lipsky.

"All right, Drew..." Marvin squinted a moment. "or do you prefer Dr. Drakken?"

"Yes, please."

"Okay, Doctor," said Marvin, "A use for a Laser."

Dr. Drakken smiled, "Death Ray."

His family erupted with applause.

Even Shego said, "Good answer."

Marvin turned to the board, "Can we see 'Death ray'?"

The top one of the 'X'ed out entries on the board changed to reveal 'Weapon'. The Lipskys all cheered, except for Ed who played a loud air guitar.

"Number one answer," said Marvin.

Marvin walked over to Ed. "Ed, there are three more answers to match." He paused dramatically, "A use for a Laser."

Ed said, "To remove a tattoo."

Marvin nodded.

Ed's team applauded, each in varying degrees of enthusiasm.

"Tattoo removal," Marvin called to the board.

A bell sounded. 'Tattoo removal' appeared on the board.

Team Possible groaned, realizing they probably won't have a chance to match this survey.

Marvin moved down to the pale, green-complexioned woman. "Shego, you know all about lasers don't you? With those hands, I mean."

"That's plasma," she corrected.

"Is that right?" the host said with interest. "Well, how would you use a Laser?"

"Light," she said after a moment. "Lasers are lights."

"True," said Marvin. He turned to the board, "Show me the light!"

A bell sounded. 'Light show' appeared on the board. Only the bottom entry remained blocked out.

Shego's team politely applauded her achievement.

Marvin addressed Flo. "Final answer. A use for a Laser."

Flo thought for a few moments. "A pointer. Like for a presentation."

This brought polite applause from her team.

Marvin asked the board, "Is there a point to this?"

The bottom answer was revealed, 'Pointer'. Bells rang and the entire right side of the stage lit up. The Lipskys all congratulated each other on winning the round.
