Sample Dialogue:
Harp 1: So I never had mistletoe at my house but I have always seen it in TV. Can you describe to me what it is?
Maura: Sure, it is a small plant and it has green leaves and little white berries and yeah I had one at my house when I was a kid, it was fake, it was not real. We used the same one every year but yeah we had mistletoe.
Harp: Ok so basically with mistletoe you hang it from the ceiling and when there is two people under it they have to kiss.
Maura: Exactly, you need two people, you can’t kiss yourself. So when two people suddenly find themselves underneath 2 the mistletoe they are supposed to kiss.
Harp: Exactly, so it is a fun, I would say harmless, tradition.
