You're making a sandwich?
I'm a creature of habit.
(chuckles)
Hey, why don't we all go around the table
and say what we're thankful for?
Come on, really?
Yes, really.
I'll start.
I'm thankful to be surrounded by my loving family.
What about that guy?
That guy-- Dr. Sturgis--
is part of our extended family.
Mm, thank you.
And I'm also thankful for this warm and comfy home
that God has blessed us with and this great neighborhood
with my mom living
right across the street,
and of course our excellent
school system that provides our children
with a world-class education.
Missy?
I'm thankful that there's two different Ghostbuster cartoons.
That's it?
Unless you know about a third one.
Okay, my turn. (chuckles)
Um, I am so thankful to be able to watch
my grandchildren grow up.
And I can't even tell you
how much it means to me
that y'all live right across the street.
And if y'all weren't,
I would just be... heartbroken.
And not just heartbroken--
crestfallen and chagrined.
And, uh,
I'm also thankful for my health,
that that mole on my hip turned out to be nothing,
and, uh,
I'm very thankful for John here,
who has
brought so much happiness to me.
(chuckles)
That's it for me.
STURGIS: Oh, my. Aw, lovely, Mom.
Oh, my, I don't know where to begin.
Well, first of all, I'm thankful to you, Connie,
for how you make me laugh, make me feel cared for,
all the ways you're affectionate to me
that I can't discuss in-in front of children
because that would be inappropriate, right?
Right.
And I'm thankful to be here
with your wonderful family.
This is something I didn't experience growing up.
See, my father was away a great deal on business
and it was just me and my mother
and she was a cold and distant woman
who blamed the world for her club foot.
Sweetie. And I...
Wrap it up.
Sorry.
My gratitude knows no bounds.
Thank you. Georgie?
Um, I'm thankful for my job
at the auto shop.
Uh, let's see...
Oh, Alyssa Milano from Who's the Boss?
She's really hot. Mm... That's about it.
That's wonderful. Shelly?
I'm sorry, Mom, but if I answer that question,
I'd be violating my experimental protocol.
Okay, moving on. George?
Well... (clears throat)
I'm thankful to share Thanksgiving dinner
with my family, of course.
I'm also thankful for this fine country we live in
and all the opportunities it provides us.
Especially when those opportunities
come once in a lifetime and require taking a small risk
and believing in one another.
We're really gonna do this now?
Hey, you started it with all that school system crap.
I only did that because you've been
trying to twist the kids' heads around.
All right, who talked?
Who do you think? Missy.
Yup.
Well, it doesn't matter because you obviously
went to your mother and made her your stalking horse.
Of course she went to me.
Move to Oklahoma, what's wrong with you?
Wait, we're moving to Oklahoma?
I thought Texans don't like Oklahoma.
You're damn right we don't.
What's wrong with Oklahoma? I'll tell you later.
Okay, that's enough of this. Nobody's moving anywhere.
Let's just have a nice, quiet dinner.
That's it? Y-You're gonna make the decision for me?
I'm making a decision for us.
All right, then.
Where are you going?
George.
George!
ADULT SHELDON: As we sat in silence,
I had a horrible realization.
For the first time in my life,
I didn't look forward to doing my homework.
(sobbing)
(television announcer speaking indistinctly)
Just watch the TV.
(television volume increases)
ANNOUNCER: Second down, nine...
