During the events of Johnson Family Christmas Dinner (2008) played by Darius Kennedy
James tells Theresa and Ms. Johnson about college and Michelle is the next family member to arrive. He calls Reggie and then smokes a joint in the bathroom. As he walks out, he is almost caught by Michelle, but lies in order for her to use another bathroom. Stephen and his family are about to start Christmas dinner when he suggests they stop to pray as it is tradition. Theresa tells everyone, Sam has something to tell everyone. Robert Jr. makes a sarcastic comment about being excited to hear the news. Candy tells everyone her and The eagle are moving in together. Theresa and Sam tell Candy she can't move in with The eagle and Ms. Johnson agrees with them as does Michelle. Everyone starts to argue and Stephen angrily tells them to stop their bickering and asks Ms. Johnson to lead them in prayer. Ms. Johnson leads the prayer and makes a prayer to celebrate Jesus. James asks for forgiveness, Candy asks that her family understand her relationship with The eagle, Robert Jr. prays for a life similar to Sam and Alex's. Michelle asks for the perfect person, Theresa asks for the children to be given sense, while Sam gives thanks for his success. Stephen closes out the prayer by asking God to show his family Christmas is about God's love and not earthly issues. They eat dinner and the family starts to argue again. Stephen tells everyone to go to bed and Michelle catches James rolling a joint in the bathroom. The next morning, James tells Michelle he promises to tell Theresa about his weed habit.
