All the important characters are brought into a room together so they can drop exposition and summations into the mix. This is accomplished through the pretext of a party, frequently a birthday party. Contrast The Hilarious Table where the purpose is to show how well characters get along with another. |

This trope was used frequently in the manga of Boys over Flowers. Birthday and various other parties served as pretexts for four separate declarations of love, two disavowals of family, and the introduction of several major plot points. | |

Played with in The Fly (1986): It starts In Medias Res at a cocktail party (later explained to be a press event for a technology company) at an art museum as a scientist is trying to break the ice with a journalist by teasing an amazing invention he's working on, and deliberately not giving her more information because he doesn't want "half the scientific community of North America eavesdropping" — instead, he invites her to his lab to see it. | |

Rob's going-away party in Cloverfield was used to reveal considerable exposition, such as Rob's relationship with Beth and Hud's crush on Marlena. | |
