At the tone, please leave your message.

[beeps]

Hey, William. It's Abby.

I'm not sure why
I thought you would pick up

this Thanksgiving, but...

Well, I just--

you know, if you're hungry,
or you want to talk...

I'm here. So...

Okay, bye.

[door closes]

LIAM:
It's just owl hooters and roost trees?

Yeah, they're critical
for a hunt, sure.

But we're behind
on schedule already.

WALKER:
Have faith, Liam. Have faith.

Well, I thought I'd be
walking into

the middle of
Turkey glaze prep.

Not whatever this is.

Well, you are not
too far off, Mama.

Just doing a little something
different this year.

- We are starting
a new tradition. - Yeah.

One that Cordi calls
"ranch to table turkey."

Yeah. Instead of farm to table,
you know...

- [turkey call]
- Farm to table...

Daddy-- So, anyways, Mama,

this year, it's gonna start
with a hunt.

You know, Stella Blue
always said

she wanted to mix things up
on Thanksgiving.

So, I'm gonna send some
progress pics to our group chat.

Cook up a little bit of FOMO,
and before sealing the deal

with a Baked Alaska.

So, a turkey hunt

on top of
Stella's favorite dessert.

- Yes, sir.
- I see what you're doing, son.

Yeah, that's a lot of
big gestures

to avoid some
uncomfortable conversations.

Or... just trying to guarantee
her attendance.

You know, it's been too many
weeks of radio silence

since her...

since her recent relocation.

I know. And I'm glad that
you're looking to mend things.

But maybe
a pumpkin pie would suffice?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

I think someone here
is trying to break tradition

and get involved
with the menu.

So, you're the only one allowed
to change things up around here?

Hey, no, no, no.
That tradition is important.

We love you, Mama.

But you're not lifting
a finger today.

Everything will be ready
by Circle of Thanks.

I promise. Hey,
what does Daddy always say?

"Ah, hell.
Full bellies and a full table."

"Yeah, that's what the day's
all about, you hear?"

My goodness, these are
knuckleheads, that's all.

Knuckleheads.

Hey, the table will be full, Mama.

All right.

a better marksman.

All right, well,

making all that noise, you
probably scared them off...

Okay, so-- so-- [sighs]

We can't come back
empty handed.

How much more hunting time
do we have budgeted?

Is someone having
buyer's remorse?

No, no, I just--
[sighs]

These gobblers are crafty.

Hey, I've been meaning
to talk to you

about Circle of Thanks

- actually--
- You prepped Ben?

LIAM:
I mean, all I told him was

to be here at noon
but that's not it.

Because there hasn't
really been an opening.

Why would that need
an opening?

I mean, you guys are pretty
solid, right?

Yeah, yes, I just really want

this Thanksgiving
to be special,

and I was thinking about
grand gestures,

and I know that there are

Circle of Thanks Rules
to adhere to...

Ah! You're seeking

a significant other exemption,
aren't you?

All right, all right, well,
you know what, little bro,

I've got your back.

Circle of Thanks exemption...

- granted.
- LIAM: Yes, thank you.

Well, it's a good thing
that you two are better

at scheming
than you are shooting

because we've got squadoosh.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So, what should we do?

I mean, it's not really
a turkey day without a turkey.

Please. I knew this whole
expedition was a pipe dream.

I bought one
at the market a week ago.

Oh, come on.

Look, I don't even know
what we're debating here.

Okay?

Not that.
I've heard that argument before.

Oh, you aren't seriously--

4:00 a.m. breakfast sandwich?

- Sure am.
- I was hungry

and the bacon
was applewood smoked.

Fine, it was a rookie mistake.

No one is saying that
I didn't blow a hole

through our shopping schedule
that year.

We got cocky.
We got preoccupied.

when that happens? - You pay full price.

We will be

We will be in line

You guys are gonna love
turkey day here.

Dad's already got the cranberry
old fashions flowing.

The Lions game is on earlier
and then it's the Cowboys.

Cordi says that dinner
is gonna be at 7:00

but let's be honest,
it's always, like, around 9:00.

And we do this thing,
between dinner and dessert,

called the Circle of Thanks.
It's really great.

Wow, babe, I didn't know
you had such a big day planned.

Did you say dinner at 9:00?

I thought this was more of
an eat upon arrival thing.

No. Dinner start time's kind of
been a debate over the years.

But...

it's a full day
of fun over here.

- Yeah, it is!

Glad I could help out.

Now we just need to survive

- Seriously,

why are people
so sloppy on Thanksgiving?

Have you decided
what you want to do

after we close up?

Maybe make
two more of these

for our first romantic
Thanksgiving together?

Well, I guess it's that
or giving into bribery.

I'm sorry, what?

My dad is trying to butter me up
on this group chat.

Like I can't see through that.
Baked Alaska and turkey hunts?

He thinks it's gonna force
my hand

to show up and apologize.

I mean, I have heard
Baked Alaska is delicious, so...

Whose side are you on here?

Whichever side
you tell me to be? Yeah?

That is the right answer.

- Okay.
- [both laugh]

I just can't believe

August still hasn't straightened
this out.

Oh, please. That party is
so far in his rearview.

Hell of a dodge.

Black Friday on Thanksgiving.

At the mall. In person.

That's our family tradition

this was more of an
early dinner than--

You gotta leave early?
That's fine.

How about this,

we'll do Circle of Thanks

and dinner
at the same time.

- Everyone wins. Awesome.
- Yeah.

You two are really cooking up
something special

we need to go back to the ranch.

No, I am not taking
the heat for this, too.

That's not what I'm pitching.

Someone needs to let your dad
know the bar got shut down.

And don't you think
that should be Augie?

[sighs]

He does think
he got away with it.

August epically threw you
under the bus with this party.

And from where I'm sitting,
your dad chose him over you.

If you really wanna handle
this situation,

I say we drop this grenade

on their Thanksgiving dinner

the mess for once.

He may not be the grotesque

He just got back

backpacking in Acadia.

TREY: And you think
that's kind of cool?

In a "hand holding" kind of way.

- No.
- Invite him over for dinner.

He can have my spot.

Cap has the rookies working
the holiday shifts at HQ.

So I'm T-minus two hours
from a TV dinner anyways.

- Do you want me to come with?
- I'm good.

Besides you have
somebody texting down your door.

Yeah, sure.
But inviting him here?

For this? As a first date?

That-- no, that feels crazy.

That is crazy,
but it's also very much you.

Oh, yeah, yeah.
You might want one of these.

- You want one of those?

Just saying. All right,
the more the merrier.

This already
feels like a mistake.

How did he nab the invite?

He nabbed the invite
because Cassie here

is focusing more
on her work-life balance.

Well, I am capable of
answering for myself, Walker.

- But yeah, what he said.
- JAMES: I'm late.

I know. I'm sorry.

Hopefully.

It just fell out, okay?

But it's not like

a lot more mixed up in it

I'm not one to get involved
in how you handle yours.

I leave that
up to your mother.

But since you've had
your crosshairs over Stella...

...you opened yourself up
to a blind spot.

August isn't the one moving out
without saying goodbye.

August isn't the one
skipping college

to throw ragers
at The Side Step.

August isn't the one
who lied to me all summer.

He did have a hand in
all those things, Cordell.

Sure. Following
in his big sister's footsteps.

But August is the steady one.

August is solid.
It's been that way forever.

Fresh-- I thought
we always used the canned.

- To be ironic.
- I like the canned.

- Nostalgic.
- Me, too. - JAMES: Amen to that.

Fair point, fair point.

LIAM:
Sure, we should have

homemade relish,
actually though--

That's my bad.
I thought, Cordi, you had it.

I was on gravy,
but then we lost it

- when the window blew out--
- We didn't lose the gravy.

That's the gravy right there, right?

New guy, what's that there
in the gravy boat?

- August, it's Kevin.
- No, it's fine.

I wouldn't presume
to label the dish per se.

May I? Thank you.

- Be careful.
- WALKER: Yep.

[Walker groans]

Yeah, I don't think
this is the-- the gravy.

I think
this is the chestnut soup.

There's a backup plan, right?

Hey, Augie, are you already
full? Seems like you barely ate.

I hope you weren't snacking before.

- Why don't you give it a rest?
- Mama, please.

Excuse me?

Please don't stress.

Today is a stress-free day
for Mama, right?

You know, our guests are here.

We have Kevin,
Ben is here, Colton,

Stella is here,
everybody's here, it's nice.

- Is it?
- Yeah.

Because your children seem to be

not so subtly bickering,
if you hadn't noticed.

I've noticed. Yes.
I-- I see that.

But I was going to deal
with that in my own way.

But thank you.

Then by all means.

You know, now that
I know that this is soup,

I really appreciate it.

Speaking of appreciation...

maybe we should do
the Circle of Thanks now.

We haven't even brought out dessert.

Yeah. What's the
over/under on dessert?

There's dessert, Cap!
There is dessert.

You know what?
Okay, how about this?

Stella Blue,
you have always said

you wanted to "mix things up"
on Thanksgiving.

So, let's do it.
Let's mix things up.

How about we start with dessert
right now?

I think it's time.

The Baked Alaska?
Dad, there's no way--

No, no, no, yes, there is a way.
The-- yes way.

We salvaged it.

Ice storm worked
in our favor, know what I mean.

I mean,
show a little faith, Stel.

Come on.
Dad did this all for you.

- Is this how
you show your appreciation? - Shut up, August.

All right,
I think you two need to

- nip it in the bud
right about now. - Don't bother, love, I tried.

And I told you
not to worry about it, Mama.

Okay. I got it.

I'll be right back.
[clears throat]

You know, maybe you should
listen for once, Dad.

- Especially today, for Mawline--
- Oh, don't make this about me.

Yeah, show some
sensitivity, Stel.

Okay. You need to cool it.

He's got a blow torch.

Just wanna make sure
everyone's aware

there's now
a blow torch in the room.

I got it.

[Walker laughing]

Okay. For God's sake, would
you just show him the paper?

That's a little high.

What paper?

The Side Step lost
its liquor license.

WALKER: I'm sorry?

Ha...

Okay.

Stella Blue.

Depending on
the circumstances,

I might actually be able
to help with that.

No. Absolutely not.

Thank you,
my daughter is an adult now,

and she needs to take
responsibility for her actions.

Okay, you know what?
Enough.

No. You do need to listen.

Because it was August.

It was August
who threw the party.

It was August who got
his sister thrown in jail.

And it was August
who lost your liquor license.

And I know you don't like
me getting involved,

Cordell, but I cannot,
and I refuse

to watch your son
skate by on privilege.

He got away with something

and he actually seems
proud of it.

And it makes me afraid of
what he might become.

You don't have to be
such a bitch about it, Mawline.

- August...
- What the hell did you just say?

Okay, hold on, Daddy,
I'll handle this--

I guess you better handle it,
Cordell, or by God, I will.

WALKER: Yes, sir,
I will handle it. August.

You listen to me.

Mama. Mama!

BONHAM:
Real nice.

[door closes]

You know, I never understood
the whole Black Friday thing

but after that...

I'm starting to see the appeal

of escaping into your phone.

Come on in,
the water's fine.

It's just--

You know, this whole...

Circle of Thanks thing,
it's a tradition.

And I just really wanted to...

...tell you
how thankful I am for you.

I don't know
why I was acting so weird

and I'm still acting weird,
I'm acting weird again.

No. No, no, no, no.

But I get it.

And I should have
just said it earlier,

but Cass
and I used to always make

such a big deal
about Black Friday.

We haven't done it for so long.

And I've been psyched

about us getting back
to a good place.

I just--

I didn't want to ditch her

just because I'm excited
about my new relationship.

- But I am.
- Me too.

That's why I was yammering on
about mashed potatoes earlier.

Did you just make a tuber pun?

It was unintentional.

It was adorable.

[Liam chuckles]

I'm glad I stayed tonight.

I mean, I didn't really have
a choice with the storm, but--

I'm glad that you stayed, too.

Also, Cass's date said
that the roads are open now.

Then let's get
the hell out of here.

If you're still
in the mood for tradition,

I think we could just about make
the store opening--

Okay. Let's go.
Yes, let's do it.

- BEN: Yeah?
- Yeah. Hey.

Huh?

♪ ♪

I am grateful for you.

Me too.

- [both chuckling]
- Let's go.

Well, you may very well be
the world's best house guest,

but I don't think anybody needs
any memory of that dinner.

Oh, you never know.

There's gotta be
some livestock around here

curious about the chestnut soup.

That's very generous.

I feel
like I owe you an apology.

I didn't know what I
was inviting you into.

Oh, no. Are you kidding?

It might sound kind of messed up
but I actually enjoyed it.

I don't come
from a big family.

So, I've always wondered
what it would be like

to have a loud
and chaotic table.

And it turns out
it was pretty entertaining.

I regret nothing.

I just hope
it wasn't our only chance

at a real date.

Look, I'm terrible at this.

- Dating.
- Mm. Yeah.

I just feel like...

everyone took a class
or something

in their 20s
and I just missed it.

And now I'm here
and I don't even know

how to have a conversation.
[chuckles]

I'd actually be
very suspicious of a person

who excelled at dating.

You know what I mean?

Well, my "connection"

at the mayor's office
just told me

- that the roads were open.
- Yes, they are.

But my brother
did just drive off in my car.

Well...

Are you sure you're as bad
at this as you say?

Oh, I promise.

Still wanna head back
to my place?

Yeah, we should've gone
hours ago.

Hey, Stella, Stella, hey.

Just hold on a second.

I just--

I should have listened to you.

What's happening with August,
I missed it.

He's been changing
and I've been stuck.

Kind of like I've been,
you know, watching home movies

of the kid I thought I had,
you know?

It doesn't matter,
my point is that you're right.

I gave him yards of slack,

and I didn't give you
an inch.

And I can see that now.

I see that very clearly.

Just, you know--

I hope I'm not too late.
[chuckles]

I don't know, Dad.

I hope it's not too late, too, but...

we're pretty far gone.

And right now I'm tired.

So...

have a good night.

Good night.

COLTON: Night, Mr. Walker.

Night, Colton.

Cap. Hey, uh...

- You headed out?
- About to, yeah.

Hell of a day, huh?

Yeah. Yeah.
[clears throat]

Look, now is not the time,

but when things settle down
for you a little bit,

there's something that you
and Perez and I need to discuss.

Yes, sir. You bet.

- Good night, Cap.
- JAMES: Yeah.

♪ ♪

[sighs]
I don't know where to begin.

Partially...

...because...

...I'm not sure
I even recognize you right now.

I'm sorry.
It just kind of came out.

And I got really mad,
and I don't know.

- It's not an excuse--
- No, it's not.

- It's not an excuse.
- I know, Dad, I keep messing up.

Take a breath.

I can't control it, okay?
I don't know.

I don't know
how to fix it, I--

Okay, then maybe
we can figure that out together.

I don't know how!

I don't either, Augie.

But I'm willing to learn.

You know...

Part of me has been so caught up
in saying goodbye to your sister

that I lost sight of the fact
that you're still here.

And that you still need me.

Tell me, Augie, um...
[clears throat]

...how did we get here?

I mean, I know
it's been going on for a while.

But whatever happened
to August the Noble?

That was never actually me.

I'm just a horrible person, Dad.

No, no, no, no.
Do not say that.

Okay, you literally said
you don't even recognize me.

And maybe that's my fault.

You know?

You know, maybe part
of me thought that

you would figure it all out
on your own.

You know, figure out
how to grow up.

You were doing such a great job.

Honestly, a time came
when I thought to myself...

hell, what do I
even have to offer?

But, son...

...it's my job
to help you understand

the difference
between right and wrong.

You know...

You don't have to be an adult
to act like a man.

The top of that list...

is how we speak about
and treat women.

But, first things first.

You need to find
your grandmother...

and you need to apologize
to her.
