The loving old Stones have moved from England to the United States for many years, and their children are in groups, but The Family Stone still maintains the rigorous and conservative atmosphere of the British family tradition. The eldest son Everett Stone is a steady and slightly funny guy, he fell in love with the beautiful girl Melon Dean Morton. Just before Christmas Thanksgiving, Everett had planned how to propose to Melon Dean. But before that, he had to go through the difficulty of "the ugly daughter-in-law sees his in-laws". When Stone's family learned that their stable eldest son and elder brother would bring an authentic New York girl to visit, the whole family suddenly became confused. For this upcoming new member, they looked forward to, doubted, rejected and even hostile. This constitutes the cause of the excitement of Stone's house

Sybil Stone: [Susannah goes upstairs to her mother's room, tiptoes inside and takes her shoes off, she then climbs on the bed and spoons with Sybil, who then awakens... she turns around and puts her hand on Susannah's cheek lovingly] Who else knows?
-
Sybil Stone: [Everett is in the kitchen having coffee, Sybil put the ring down next to him] Merry Christmas.
Sybil Stone: [Everett is silent] Don't be a jerk. I said Merry Christmas.
Everett Stone: Dad put you up to this.
Sybil Stone: I think you and I need to get something straight.
Everett Stone: [scoffs] Here we go.
Sybil Stone: [Kelly has just walked in] Not now, Kelly.
Kelly Stone: [hesitant] All right, OK.
Sybil Stone: Jesus, Kelly! Not now.
Kelly Stone: OK... all right. Hey Everett.
Sybil Stone: [Everett nods towards Kelly while Sybil takes a stool and talks to Everett] You've had a charmed life, kid.
[Everett scoffs]
Sybil Stone: I blame myself.
Everett Stone: Mom... you've never made anybody's life easier.
Sybil Stone: [laughing] What the hell do you know about it?
Everett Stone: Oh, I know a little.
Sybil Stone: [stops laughing] I'm sick, honey.
[Everett slowly shakes his head]
Sybil Stone: And you can't fix it. Not even by getting married.
Everett Stone: [Everett begins to cry, Sybil opens her arms to comfort him] Mom...
Sybil Stone: [chuckles] What?
[embraces him briefly, then they separate]
Sybil Stone: Hey, I know this is probably a tall order, but I need you to do me a favor, and try not to be so perfect.
[laughs]
Sybil Stone: All right?
Everett Stone: [mumbles, still crying] I'm far from perfect.
Sybil Stone: I hate to see you miss out on something... because you have this picture in your mind or you thought you can change something you can't. I'd hate to see you not find what you really want. Oh, but Everett... it's your ring... it's your decision.
