All Is Merry & Bright

Phillips' residence. This is Elisha.

Yes, one moment.

Jess. Jessica.

Hello. This is Jessica.

Um...

Well, thank you very much for the opportunity.

Yes, I will work even harder.

Okay.

Thank you.

- I made it. I made it! -

I'm gonna beat you with this racket. You really made it?

- I made it. -

We've got to go to the Bennigan's with girls to celebrate.

Come on. I'm already late for practice.

You're not gonna lose your scholarship.

Better not. Not for the Ohio State University.

You're gonna make it. I'm gonna make it.

Together to the top, baby.

Come on.

I can't believe I made it this year.

The team is going for its third national title.

That's a record. This is so huge.

- Slow down, Earnhardt. - You're talking faster than I'm driving.

I hope Mrs. Elliott understands this girl will not be available.

Available for what?

Oh, come on. I'm gonna make this light. Hang on.

- -

You got this. I know it's hard.

Don't let this stop you.

Come on, push through.

Let me try this here for you.

And what we actually have here is a...

- - Got it. You did it.

- You just got straighten... -

I got it.

Okay.

Mm-mm. Pureed carrots. Oh, boy.

- Hmm. -

I like you. I like you. I like you.

But it's you... I don't like.

Honey, let's not overcomplicate it.

I'm sure you'll be perfect by Christmas.

And when you're done, I need your help peeling the potatoes.

Can't we just make boxed potatoes?

No, no, no. Your father loves my mashed potatoes,

and they will be on the table.

Okay.

Mm.

- Uh, Paul. Perfect timing. - Oh.

I need you to pull the turkey out of the oven so I can baste it.

Of course, mon amour.

Ah!

Wow!

Oh, that smells delicious.

Oh, is that Nick Tannen?

Oh, can I please get your autograph?

Sorry, you got to talk to my agent first.

Marco!

Watch out, Nick!

- Do you know how much these cost? - Hi, Melody.

You're gonna buy me a new one if you break it.

- Hi. - Hi, Marco.

- - Hey, Gabe. Gabe! Gabe!

- - Can you put that thing away

and practice some different music?

- Glasses look good. - Right.

Nick, what kind of chicken is this?

- This is turkey. - Sure.

Hey, those are my shades.

Leave the poor bird alone.

Can... can one of you guys open this jar?

Oh, too slow! Let the muscles do the work.

Put on a nicer shirt for dinner, please.

Just a nice...? This is nice.

Okay, nicer sleeves.

- But sleeves cover the guns. - Sleeves.

Gabe, can you help me put this turkey in the oven?

- Sure. - Thank you.

And Heavenly Father, thank you for our family,

for the love that's around this table,

and for my wife, who always goes above and beyond.

In your name, Amen.

Amen.

Okay, everyone. Go ahead, pass counterclockwise.

Marco, I thought you left.

Don't you wanna stay for dinner?

No, No. I'm... I'm okay.

Although you and I should eat together

sometime.

Yeah, we've got a lot going on at our house.

Big turkey party.

See you, guys.

- Is he here a lot? - Oh, yeah.

Hey, Gabe, Quick.

Can you take a photo, please?

No, of... of the centerpiece.

- - Gabe...

- -

I didn't know you were here.

Um...

I'm sorry there's not a lot... We're not doing much this year.

Well, we're not done talking.

- I'm done talking. -

Marco is here.

Alex, it's Thanksgiving.

Maybe we could...

What?

Yeah.

- So much to give thanks for right now. - Honey, um...

Are you kidding me right now?

My favorite. Save me more of that stuff.

- Mom, potatoes are great. -

I am thankful that I got all the brains in the family.

- - Okay.

And I'm thankful for your wonderful mother.

For Gabe's photography,

for Melody being dedicated to mastering 300 instruments.

- - Thank you.

And that Nick will be moving out soon

- and paying for his own food. - Whoo!

- Hey! - Don't worry about it.

I'll make you amazing meals forever, baby.

Thank you, Mommy.

Speaking of meals, this was a masterpiece.

Your mashed potatoes and gravy were exquisite.

- See? - Yeah.

Okay. For the grand finale, we have my world famous pumpkin cheesecake.

We've got the pumpkin pies. And I tried something different this year.

- A festive fall pie... - Mm-hmm.

It's, you know, good for you.

Full of polyphenols.

- Mmm. - Mmm.

Anti-inflammatory.

Mm. Yummy.

- I'll try a piece. -

Thank you.

Hello, Elisha.

Hey, everybody, say hi.

- Happy Thanksgiving. - Yo, yo, yo.

- Gobble, gobble. - Happy Thanksgiving.

I called you, like, three times today.

Are you enjoying your Norman Rockwell Thanksgiving?

Are you enjoying your dinner in front of the games?

What's the score, Walter?

Actually, it's been really chill here today.

We are trying our hand at Asian fusion this year.

Wow! That's an interesting choice.

- Hey there, Tannens. - Big news.

Walter got the job at NASA.

- One small step... - One giant leap.

You know, they got me an office on the moon,
