Mrs. Comfort has everything arranged for the party. 32 people are coming, and she has eight tables with four chairs at each table. However, the day of the party, people want to keep sitting together, and pushing tables together! Mrs. Comfort tries to warn Mr. Comfort that it won't work, but instead they keep trying different combinations (and eating more garlic bread) as more and more people show up.
