- I just want to help you. - It'’s too late.

Rhyme: Previously on "Chicken Girls"...

No more "I'’m sorrys." We need to nail this.

They'’re just trying to teach me how to be a B. They'’re not monsters.

You have way less real friends than I do.

Your Juliet has returned.

- This isn'’t working. - Wait, what just happened?

We broke up.

Why are you still with me?

You and Quinn have gotten really close recently, huh?

Both: "You have my blessing."

- I'’m not really into guys. - Oh.

- I'’m really not that bad. - Are you kidding me?

Oh, my God, Beatrice. You'’re iconic.

I know, it'’s gonna be so insane when I'’m done.

What are you talking about?

She won'’t listen.

Rhyme: We can try again together.

- Nothing else to lose. - Except Birdie.

You sure about this?

I'’ve never been more sure of anything.

[ music playing ]

Don'’t you think this is a little excessive?

You'’re only gone for, like, three days.

But it'’s for Hotel Du Loone.

You never know with this press junket.

I'’ll need a ball gown, and Oxford, and a SCUBA suit.

I like to be prepared for anything.

Well, your press junket sounds a lot more fun

than spending Thanksgiving at Quinn'’s and Rooney'’s.

I bet Mr. Forrester will be wearing a turkey hat.

Ha, bet you won'’t have that at your press junket.

Mathers: Attention, Attaway students.

This is your Principal Mathers here

wishing you a very happy Thanksgiving.

Here at Attaway, we have so much to be thankful for.

Especially that so many of your fellow classmates

have recovered from the mono outbreak.

Except, of course, Sheldon. [ laughs ]

- Ah, Thanksgiving is a time... - [ phone trilling ]

...to be with family and friends.

Please have a safe and restful holiday

and enjoy your half day today.

Oh, and if any of you have any information

about Spike Smith or Birdie Cane,

please let me know.

[ music playing ]

I can'’t believe my family'’s in L.A.

I mean, I'’m glad that "Hotel Du Loone" is successful, but, still.

Okay, I get it. My mom can'’t cook to save her life.

I was supposed to go to Flash'’s for Thanksgiving,

but that'’s not happening, and we have no clue where Birdie is.

This holiday is a mess.

Rhyme'’s having dinner with my family.

You should come, too.

Yeah, it'’ll be like a Chicken Girls Thanksgiving.

- Except for Ellie. - You mean Brooke?

Hey, stranger. I haven'’t seen you in a while.

Hey.

Yeah, I know. I'’m sorry.

I'’ve just been really busy.

With Birdie? Yeah.

I just feel so bad. Like, I'’m the reason she got suspended.

No, you tried everything you could.

Sometimes you just need to let people make their own mistakes.

I know, I know.

- Thanks. - Anytime.

Hey, so, my parents are having this, like, big Thanksgiving get together.

You should totally come.

I'’d love to.

But, um, actually, I'’m going to Mel'’s.

- Hey, babe. - Hi.

Um, actually, speak of,

Rooney, this is my girlfriend, Mel,

and, Mel, this is Rooney, my lab partner.

Hey.

I-- I can'’t believe you guys haven'’t met already.

I was just gonna tell Rooney about how your grandma makes a killer cranberry sauce.

Mm, the best. None of that canned stuff.

Cool.

Cool, well, maybe we'’ll come by for dessert.

See ya. Let'’s go.

But I better not see anyone lagging

because they had too much pie and couldn'’t bother to practice.

Gain two pounds and you'’ll be kicked off the team.

Britney: So, Beatrice, when are you gonna do it?

Beatrice: I'’m thinking Winter Formal

would be a nice public place to break his heart.

You know what? I was worried you'’d gotten soft on us.

For Tim Sharp? As if. Besides, a bet'’s a bet.

What are you guys planning on doing to Tim Sharp?

Nothing you need to concern yourself with, Brooke.

I don'’t know what you think you just heard,

but you better keep your mouth shut.

Nothing worse than a B sting.

Saints do not move, though grant for the cow'’s sake.

No, cattle call'’s sake, Angie.

[ groans ] Are you sure you'’re ready for this?

I mean, Rhyme has been doing so well,

and I don'’t want you to push yourself if you'’re not ready.

I'’m fine.

All right, then.

Please take it from the top.

Drake: You got this.

Remember that three-page monologue that you had last year?

No one could have memorized it, but you did.

Thanks, Drake.

Have not saints lips, and cowboys, too?

Aye, cowboy, lips they use to cattle call.

Endearest thee, that lips serve is the call to cattle.

Saints do not move, though grant the cattle call'’s sake.

Then move not.

Ellie?

[ sniffling ]

I know you'’re in there.

Oh.

Hey.

Do you want to talk about it?

Not really.

[ sniffles ] Just, how did everything get so messed up?

Well, you did become a B.

You probably think I deserve it

- because karma'’s a real-- - I don'’t think that.

I think that you'’ve changed, but we all have.

[ sniffles ]

You heard anything about Birdie?

No. I'’m so worried.

[ sniffles ] I'’m so worried, too.

Rhyme, I'’m sorry about everything.

Me, too.

[ sniffles ]

Ellie, we'’re having Thanksgiving at Quinn'’s and Rooney'’s house.

You and your mom should come.

It'’ll be like old times.

You can bring Robby.

Yeah, I'’d like that.

Okay, cool.

Rhyme?

Never call me Brooke again.

So, which one of these girls is your gal pal?

My what?

You know, your main squeeze,

or whatever you kids are calling it these days.

[ laughs ] Uh, it'’s-- it'’s pretty complicated.

[ chuckles ] Son, it is always complicated.

So, lay it on me.

Okay, so I'’m kind of dating this one girl,

but I like another girl.

Uh, you got yourself into a pickle.

Says the turkey.

- [ laughs ] Good point, good point. - Yeah.

So, does the girl you'’re dating

know that you have feelings for someone else?

No, and I feel really bad it.

You should feel really bad about it.

Honesty and communication are essential for a good relationship.

I know.

I just... [ sighs ]

I want to tell this other girl,

but I feel like, if I tell her,

then things are never gonna be the same between us.

I mean, it'’s-- it'’s already weird between us.

So maybe it'’s just all too late.

Well, what'’s life without a little risk?

As Babe Ruth said, "Never let the fear of striking out

keep you from playing the game."

A candy bar said that?

Oh, God, Robby. Good thing you'’re good-looking.

I am so glad we'’re all together again.

- Me, too. - This is, like, the perfect Thanksgiving

for the year we'’ve had.

Things have been crazy around here.

TK, now Birdie.

Quinn: Where do you think she went?

Rooney and I tried to talk to Birdie.

Her mom seemed really upset. Defeated, almost.

I don'’t blame her. Birdie'’s really been put through a ringer this year.

Oh, you made it. I'’m so glad. Come on in.

Thank you so much for having me.

Of course. No one should spend Thanksgiving by themselves.

You seem like you'’re doing great, all things considered.

So, uh, have you heard anything from Birdie?

I was hoping that she'’d gone to Texas,

but neither her father nor TK have heard from her.

She'’ll be all right. She'’s such a strong girl.

She'’ll be back before you know it.

It'’s gonna be okay.

Those potatoes look great.

Yeah, I can'’t wait for the food.

Yeah, when'’s the turkey gonna be ready?

You know what else turkey reminds me of, girls?

Chicken.

[ indistinct chatter ]

[ music playing ]

[ clinks ]

We have a tradition in this household

that, before we eat, we like to say something that we'’re thankful for.

I'’ll start.

I'’m thankful for all my friends and family

that are here to celebrate this day together.

I'’m thankful that I don'’t have to eat my mom'’s cooking this year.

I am so thankful that we got Mr. Forrester to wear that hat.

I guess the turkey'’s gone straight to my head.

Ha-ha.

I'’m thankful that, even though I can'’t be with them today,

I have two beautiful children.

I just wish they could be here to celebrate with us.

I miss '’em, too.

I'’ll be right back.

I, uh, made a pie. I'’ll go get it.

[ mouths ] Go.

I'’m gonna go help her out.

What do you want?

The pies look good.

Whatever.

Are you mad at me?

'’Cause it really feels like you'’re mad at me.

I just don'’t get it.

Is it the Bs? Is it me?

Is it the way I dress?

I'’ve gotten better about being messy.

I just don'’t see what the problem is, what I did wrong.

Ellie, I care about you.

I just don'’t understand why,

if you'’re gonna date one of the Bs, it'’s not me.

Hey, TK.

It'’s me.

Um, it'’s Thanksgiving, and we were naming the things that we'’re thankful for.

And, in spite of everything, I'’m thankful for you.

A lot has happened since you left.

I mean, I'’m in a musical at school next week.

And Birdie'’s not here,

and I'’m sure you'’re worried, too.

I wish you were here.
