The premise

Here’s the bit.

Mindy (Megan Rico) joins her boyfriend Kyle (Garet Allen) and his parents (Jason Gray and Tori Pence) for Thanksgiving dinner. When Kyle wins the wishbone pull, Mindy explains that her family's tradition keeps going: the loser earns a second-chance bone, failing to snap that leads to a dreambone, and an uneven break demands a punishment bone. Digging ever deeper into the turkey, she sings about curse, jail and death bones and a legendary immortality bone, appalling Kyle and his father while his mother is delighted. When the mythical bone turns out not to be there, Kyle hands over his unused wish, and Mindy spends it on getting him to her own family's Christmas, where ribs are always served.

Highly quotable.

Oh yeah, we live by the wishbone... and all the other bones.

Now I must take a punishment bone!
