(ALARM BEEPING)

Okay, Kylie, nice work.

We've run out of time.

See you Monday.

Thank your friend here

for, uh, no homework.

All right, watch the master now.

You watchin'?

This is why I get paid

the big bucks.

Ooh!

That's your "S".

One more for "HORSE."

We're playing

"HORSERADISH."

That's, like,

seven more letters.

Yeah, sure.

Okay.

If I make this one,

we get to go to

San Antonio for Christmas.

How 'bout if you

make this shot,

you get to pick where we

go for lunch, all right?

Come on, Dad.

Grandpa said that he'd

put up so many lights,

you could see it

from outer space.

(SIGHS)

I don't doubt that.

But we're going there

for Thanksgiving

and I think that's

enough, all right?

Go ahead, your shot.

David.

Okay.

Wait.

So, if I make this shot,

we get to go to

Grandpa's for Christmas?

I mean even if you don't.

(EXHALES)

Hey, look. Grandpa put up

Burp, Snort and Poot.

Yeah, he probably should just

leave 'em up all year round.

- CLAIRE:
Whoo!

- LILY:
Hey!

Y'all made it!

- THEO:
Hey, hey!

- Look at that beauty, I love it!

- THEO:
Hey, Suze.

- Hey.

Howdy y'all!

Yoo-hoo!

Travis! Oh, honey!

So happy you're

coming for Christmas.

Yes. It's great.

Good to see you!

You look beautiful.

- Happy Thanksgiving. Thanks for coming.

- Thank you.

Come on in.

Hey, brother. Hey, sis.

So I hear you're here for

Thanksgiving and Christmas this year!

- Grandpa!

- MA:
What did you do to your hair?

David. God, you're

getting so big!

Hey, Pop.

Michael.

Wanna help me get

the food inside?

- See you in there.

- See you in there.

Here's my fruitcake!

Da-dah! Oh, wow!

Is that jalapenos?

Close, there's jalapenos

and poblanos and habaneros.

So, do you want

to try it? Come on.

- It's really...

- Um...

I call it my

"three peppers fruitcake."

- I'm gonna have a little taste...

- Just a little?

...'cause I don't wanna,

I don't wanna fill up.

- Well, you're gonna want more, because it's really amazing.

- Mmm-hmm.

Despite all these chilies,

you can still taste the pickles

and the pineapples and (IN

SING-SONG) the prunes!

Try this, it's so good!

You gotta try

Claire's fruitcake!

It's kind of like an explosion

of flavor in your mouth!

I worked so hard on it.

I made 12. I made a dozen.

One for everybody in the family.

We all get one?

Oh, Claire!

Hey! MAGGIE:
Hey! Aunt Jocelyn!

You made it!

Of course we made it!

Everyone, you remember Bob?

He, uh... That's your

second husband, right?

Oh, God, no!

Totally different Bob!

(GIGGLING)

All in.

(SIGHS)

You are so bluffing.

When you dance,

you go, cha, cha, cha

And when you sing, you go

La, la, la

And when you laugh, you go...
