High Tea/With His Excellency

Synopsis: A proper English Baron stranded in a small Texas town regularly takes "high tea" with the local country club ladies, only to have their reverie interrupted by a crude but colorful oil tycoon and his naive legal counsel. But this time - when "High Tea" trickles into the cocktail hour, and the "cocktail hour" develops into a drunken symposium - The Baron Raymond Van Peldt and the oil tycoon Ira "Candy" Cane challenge the Thursday afternoon "Tea Ladies" to a bout of Truth or Dare, and end up getting far more than they bargained for. Suitable for Adults.
