Where's the head? It's on the left.
So that's it,huh? You're throwin' tommy to the sharks? Freddie's gonna take care of vicki.
I know you like tommy, but I gotta do what's best for vicki.
I don't understand.
Where did grandma go? Well,that doesn't matter.
I mean,uh,the point- the important thing is that,uh,she's gone and that we're all gonna have to chip in and help mary-kate prepare thanksgiving dinner.
Me? I don't know how to cook a turkey.
Come on,it's not rocket science.
Just stick it in the oven.
I saw you help ma a thousand times.
what I can help you with the vegetables and gravy.
There you go.
And kath'll be here later,she can help.
She knows how to -stuff things.
-stuff things.
when I was a wee lad in belfast,I saw this picture in a magazine of an american family gathered 'round the table sharing this beautiful thanksgiving meal.
Man,it was a vision,sweet and full of hope.
I'd never seen anything like it: The happy family,the giant turkey.
And now,here I am,my first proper american thanksgiving.
Anyway,this is my contribution.
There's peas,stringed beans,corn.
Nice.
You went shopping? Actually,I found it.
Found it? Aye,over on broad street.
You know outside that place with the big door.
On the corner of grant? It's a homeless shelter,you moron.
You stole food from a homeless shelter? Take it back.
Take it back! Before they notice it's gone.
Come on.
Jesus! Whoa!I just realized.
I didn't get any cranberry sauce.
I'll get it!Connelly's is open until noon.
Decco,you see anything? No,nothing yet,freddie.
They'll be here.
If this turns out to be bullshit,I'm not tellin' franklin a fuckin' word.
Try and get this through your head,okay? Franklin's far too ambitious to pass up what you two are gonna give him.
You'll get what you want,okay? see?Here they are.
How do I look? like a fuckin' pitbull.
Fuck you! No,you look fine.
-You sure? -Ye.
oh,babe! hey,where's the kitchen? Oh,it's back here.
"loosely fill the body cavity with stuffing.
" Body cavity? You know,the -asshole.
-yeah.
Jesus.
Ouch.
this is really gross.
I'm a vegetarian for god's sake.
You'll be all right.
How'd it go,sweetie? They only had three cans of cranberry sauce.
That's not gonna be enough.
it'll have to do.
Whoa,mary-rose? Are you okay? Yeah,great.
Thanks.
Hey,where do they keep all the balloons? Some warehouse in new jersey,I think.
Really? Who's that? Noni: Bullwinkle.
-That's not bullwinkle.
-It's bullwinkle.
You ate an entire fuckin' pie already? Hey!Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey! Oh,shit.
Sorr-you know something? Don't use that word 'cause it's not,it's not smart.
I feel stupid now.
What kind of person are you that you would eat a whole pie? It's a pie.
It's thanksgiving.
You eat pie on thanksgiving.
You got five pies.
That's disgusting,jimmy.
hey.
Where are you? eddie's late.
Well,fuck eddie.
Bring the kids here.
They'll have a great time.
They need to spend time with their father,michael.
I need to spend time with you,don't you think? Kath: I'm sure he'll be here soon.
I mean he called.
He's just,he's stuck up at his uncle crayton'S.
They like to play charades.
Look,it's my first thanksgiving in a long time,and I want you here with me,okay? It's a big deal in the caffee household.
and my mother's disappeared.
What?What do you mean disappeared? Yeah,she went awol.
I don't know.
And I think that kate really needs your help with the meal.
Tommy.
Does that look like bullwinkle to you? It's not bullwinkle,I'm tellin' ya.
I know.
Yeah what's up? Mary-rose is stoned.
how do you know? I can tell.
What did you say? Nothin'.
Will you please talk to her? Maybe she'll listen to you.
okay.
Okay.
I'll deal with this.
Okay,miss,you and I are gonna have a little talk.
Not right now.
Yes,right now! now look at me.
Are you stoned? Yeah.
What,you admit you're stoned? How else am I supposed to survive thanksgiving in this family? That is not funny! Where did you get it? What? The pot.
It's pot,isn't it?Where did you get it? From a friend.
And no,I won't tell you who.
Okay.
Have you got any more? No,and if I did,I wouldn't hide it in my drawers.
Well,if you wouldn't hide it in your drawers well,where would you hide it then? I don't have any more! okay,you're grounded until christmas.
That's completely unfair.
You're either in this house or you're at school or somewhere in between,miss.
And don't you look at me like that.
Now,I'm gonna ask you one more time.
Have you got any more? No.
Do you swear? I swear.
hey.
Hey.
So,I'm gonna go.
They're as happy as clams out there.
Sure you don't wanna stay? No.
Good eats.
Yeah,I'm gonna go,uh,see my dad.
I don't want him being alone on thanksgiving,you know? Yeah.
happy turkey day.
Yeah,you too.
You uh gonna go see cassie? No.
She's up in buffalo with her sister.
Sammy got into a fight.
Did he win? He got hauled before the principal.
They suspended him for a day.
That's bullshit.
What's the principal's name?I'll have a talk with him.
You can't,honey.
You're in prison,remember? how's pamela? She's started wetting her bed.
Wh-what do you mean wetting her bed? Why? The same reason sam gets into fights.
are you in pain? No.
I'm all right.
Marty you're gonna be okay.
I'll make sure of that.
Who's gonna take care of me,marty? You won't be here.
Freddie'll keep an eye on you.
The only person that can take care of me is you.
Colin.
Time to go.
Go?Where's he going? He's the only one who's helping me.
I have to finish mashing the potatoes.
They're still lumpy.
No,you got a real job to do.
Oh,and our thanksgiving dinner isn't real? That's not what I meant.
Is this thing even cooking? Still plenty of time.
What's the feckin' rush? Traffic could suck,a bridge could wash out, aliens could fuckin' invade.
I don't know.
You gotta plan ahead,plan for disaster.
Gimme that thing.
I'll do the potatoes.
That was my job.
I was enjoying doing that.
Well,I'm taking care of it.
I don't think this thing is actually cooking.
Is it on? Of course it's on.
Then it's probably cooking.
-Here,let me have a look - hey!Get on the road.
That's an order.
where the hell is ma? How could she just go off and abandon us like this? I don't know how to do this alone.
Where's eileen?I thought she was gonna help? well,the last time I saw her,she was going off to tell tommy that mary-rose is stoned.
Mary-rose is stoned? Yeah.
Zonked.
hey! The potatoes! Hey,mary-rose up there? -Why? -I gotta talk to her about something.
She broke an agreement with me.
We had an understanding.
Understanding about what? Something between her and me.
You knew she smoked pot and you never said anything to me? jesus christ,michael,I'm her fuckin' father! I'm her uncle and I got my own relationship with her.
What the same uncle that sells the drugs in the first place? Is it that uncle? Hey,I don't sell drugs to kids and you fuckin' know that- you're in no position to lecture my daughter about doing drugs.
Who the fuck do you think you are? You know the new rec room in the basement at st.
Joseph's? You know the new swings and basketball hoops in the park on hope? Or even the turkeys being eaten right now by old folks in two different nursing homes for the poor right here on the hill? Who paid for all that,huh? Me,that's who.
That's who the fuck I am,all right? You can shoot a bow and arrow like robin hood, and you can wear green like robin hood, you can have your maid fuckin' marion just like robin hood,but you will never be robin hood.
pass the gravy,please.
This use to be an elegant hotel.
You don't like this suite? Oh no,walter,I love the suite.
And what about the turkey? Well,it's a little dry but it's good.
This is cordon bleu compared to what I usually get at my son's house.
is that why you called me? To escape your daughter-in-law's turkey? Well,it was one reason.
walter? I brought some toys with me.
Would you like to see? Toys? my god,rose,what what is that? Well,they're fur-lined handcuffs.
Surely you've seen them.
actually,no,I haven'T.
Well,why don't you try 'em on? Come on now,they won't bite you.
look,I-I uh I'd rather not.
truth is,rose,uh the plumbing ain't what it used to be.
prostate issues.
Oh,now,walter,as I recall,you have the stamina of a mule.
conversation's about all I can offer you these days.
I'm sorry.
I hope you're not too disappointed.
Disappointed? I'm flabbergasted.
If you can't fuck,why'd you bring me here? I wanted to see you.
it's been a long time.
You wanted to escape your daughter-in-law's turkey.
well,that too.
Oh,I might as well go home.
Uh,d-don't go.
Look,we'll have a good time.
We'll have some more wine,we'll watch a movie on tv,we'll we'll catch up.
like old people.
That's what we are,rose.
Stay.
Please.
toast.
Freddie? Happy thanksgiving.
All: Happy thanksgiving.
Happy thanksgiving.
Eat.
That's nice.
Yeah? That's good.
Cooked the turkey in a bag.
-really? -Yeah.
Brown bag.
Fourth down,and they elect to play a good 30 yards.
Melvin snags him through the defense and he's hauled down by bodanski.
bodanski making his presence known since his return from A well,a rather debilitating injury.
Fuckin' burrheads.
Don't start,dad.
Burrheads run faster than the rest of us.
Simple fact.
Don't be scared of simple facts,son.
That's what makes a good cop.
You know,it's a sunny day,okay? They're just trying to enjoy a football game,could you please fuckin' let 'em? Playing clean today,and he's doing a fabulous job.
He's certainly ready to go.
First and ten.
in back,looks for an opening,finds dennis and it's incomplete.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to bite your head off,okay? Dad,have you ever had a case where you know that if you just let it run its natural course,that,uh,the bad guys would thrive? You got a case like that? So you're bending the rules dispensing some real justice? Yeah,I suppose so.
I mean,I I hope,you know? Keeps there,tucked down over the line.
Now,that's one thing about basketball "roast until a meat thermometer,inserted in the meaty part of the thigh,reads 180 degrees.
Then remove turkey from oven.
" Okay.
Okay.
fuck.
Fuck.
Fuck,fuck,fuck,fuck,fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck.
shit! Oh,fuck-fuck,fuck-fuck,fuck.
Okay ah,jesus.
jimmy martinson,get your ass over to the kitchen and help me cook or I want a divorce.
Jimmy.
Yeah,right.
Yeah.
wine,anyone? No thanks.
Tommy? Yeah.
Yeah,I'd love one.
I can honestly say that I've never hated anything more than I hate thanksgiving.
Every year is the same fucking hate-fest.
I think you're overreacting a bit.
Lotta good things about thanksgiving.
Oh yeah?Like what? Like the,the first thanksgiving after you and tommy got married.
Remember we went up to that beach house on block island? Yeah,that was nice.
Yeah.
oh god,now I feel guilty.
I suppose I have to go help mary-kate.
she's right,you know,we should have a drink.
You know I don't drink.
You drink when you want to.
Fine.
I almost never drink.
Better? Let's make this one of those times where,uh,you relax,share a little love, and have a drink with your brother.
I don't need to drink to relax with you.
Yes you do.
It's thanksgiving.
I don't want it.
No,you mean you don't want a drink with me.
Michael: That's right.
You can't let your guard down for five minutes and have a drink with your little brother? It's nothing to do with you.
I just don't like to drink.
-Fuck you.
-Hey-hey! No,you don't,okay? If you had any respect for me at all you would know that I don't drink because it's not good for me.
It's not about you,it's not always fuckin' about you,tommy,you know? What the fuck happened to you? Tommy: God,I'm starving.
And we're not? Eileen: Dinner will be served at midnight.
Mary-kate: You wanna help?Open the wine.
I think the turkey looks great.
I mean,better late and great than early and squirrelly.
Jimmy,shut up.
Where's michael? He left.
Where did he go? Tommy: How should I know? Did you hurt his feelings? He hasn't got any feelings.
you know,is it too much to ask that this family come together on thanksgiving and be kind and loving and supportive? Yes,clearly,it is too much to ask.
Every year I look forward to thanksgiving.
Not christmas,with the insane shopping and the horrible religious bullshit.
No,not new year's eve with that empty waiting-for-midnight feeling when you know the whole year has been a fucking waste! No,but thanksgiving,because all we have to do is eat too much turkey and watch some football and have a good time,right? Babe,you want a glass of wine? Wrong.
No,that's too simple.
We can't make that happen.
No,we have to ruin thanksgiving too.
We always ruin thanksgiving.
I mean,that's what we do.
You know,and somebody cries - usually you.
No we don't,no we don't,no we don'T.
We don't ruin thanksgiving.
We do not.
We have a nice thanksgiving.
We're happy,we laugh,we love each oth- okay.
Okay,you're right.
Thanksgiving sucks.
Move.
I'm gonna go watch the packers kick the lions' ass.
You cook the fuckin' dinner.
Kath? Yeah,I'm in here.
Come on,let's go.
Well,I'm still waiting for eddie.
No,no,you're comin' with me.
Get the kids.
What do you mean get the kids? The kids will do whatever the fuck they're told.
No,the kids need to spend time with their father.
Why is everything always about your fucking kids? What? you know,there's a lot of places I could go for comfort and care, yeah,and I come to see you,right? To see you.
Not to see your whiny fuckin' brats.
Fuck you,michael! Shit! Goddammit! Michael,are you okay? Are you all right?Do we need to go to the hospital? Michael? You crazy cunt our baby,michael.
Our baby.
happy thanksgiving.
To you too.
Can I ask you a question? Oh,sure.
In your opinion,what's the longest it could possibly take to drive from providence to narragansett? Uh,I guess about an hour.
Okay,so double it to take into account for an unlikely disaster, and we're talking about two hours.
If I was meant to be here at,say 3:00,and I left providence at,say 11:00, then I would be stuck here for a full two fucking hours to kill,wouldn't I? Would you like something to eat,sir? Well,I'm uh I'll eat later; proper meal with the family,but,uh since I have all this time on me hands,I might as well sneak in an early dessert,don't you think? Why not? Pumpkin pie with vanilla ice cream,please.
And a coffee,black.
I'm sorry,we're out of pumpkin pie.
You're out of pumpkin pie? Uh,we have apple and uh,one slice of blueberry.
Sally,is this a restaurant? Sure,yeah.
Is today thanksgiving? Well,that's the problem,I mean,look around you,they all ordered pumpkin pie.
Does not every professional restaurant know full well that everyone eats pumpkin pie on thanksgiving? Look,it's not my fault that we ran out of pie.
I don't mean to be personal,but did you graduate from high school? Yeah.
So you don't have to work in a really fuckin' awful restaurant.
You choose to work in a really fuckin' awful restaurant.
Have I got that right,sally? go fish.
More beer? Yeah,sure.
Marty: Yeah,why not,huh?It's thanksgiving.
Ralph: Ah,shit.
We're out.
What,are you shitting me? I wish.
All right,tell you what I'm gonna do.
I'll go get some more.
But you two gotta swear on the lives of your children that you'll be here when I get back.
Swear to god.
Marty: How we gonna go anywhere with these things? Besides,I don't have any children.
All right,I'll be right back.
Get something good,too,like a sam adams,or somethin'.
Ralph: You'll be lucky to get bud.
Whose turn? Whose turn? Ah,yours.
Your.
Bright sunny day,with the air fresh and clean.
you ordered pizza? Eileen: Thank you.
Okay,let's see.
Girls noni.
No pepperoni for you,mary-rose.
I'll go get some milk.
Mom Milk.
why'd you order pizza? I mean,everything's almost ready.
The girls' blood sugar was in their socks.
You gonna save the day? Why not? You're right.
Why not? Here's what I think: You,me,the girls this insignificant little house,we're a family.
I'm not sure my life has any meaning outside my family, so I've decided I want to fight for it.
Do you? Well,that's what I'm trying to do.
No.
I mean really fight for it.
The turkey's overcooked and it tastes like a doormat.
I'll be upstairs eating pizza with the girls.
turn the oven off and join us? ah,got a two.
Fuck you.
Um,got an eleven? you prick.
Ah,looks like I did it again.
Seven pairs.
You owe me 500 bucks.
You got us anything good? Got what they had.
We're in the sticks.
Who the fuck drinks miller? Miller's a good beer.
My father drank miller.
Ralph: So,uh,who's winning? Uh,freddie owes me uh,$3000 grand.
Want me deal you in? No,I gotta go take a dump.
Hey,uh,just make sure you open the window when you're done.
you notice anything strange about ralph? Strange? No.
Why?Do you? Yeah somethin'.
What? I don't know.
Shit! fuck! shit! Fuck! fuck! shit.
So where the fuck were you? I-I was in the can.
I heard shots,I came out blasting,but it-it was too late.
Oh,ralph,that's bullshit! I don't believe a word of it.
the door was open,freddie was gone,the shooter was gone.
Goddammit! So let me get this straight,ralph.
The shooter just happens to show up while you're takin' a shit.
Before you can wipe your ass and get out here,trio is dead, freddie and the shooter are gone and this place is a mess,is that it? Ralph: I was in the can,I heard the shots,I came out firing.
Franklin: You came out firing at what? Officials ordered a county-wide evacuation,which went into effect- female reporter: Police and fire officials suspect arson documentary narrator: After hours of patient stalking, the big cat attacks with lightning speed and- female reporter: Neighbours in the small colorado community had a rude awakening this morning when they saw- male reporter: With flash floods reported in over seven counties.
hello,sailor.
It moved.
it certainly did.
where's our thanksgiving dinner? It's not happening.
What do you mean,it's not happening? Of course it's happening.
I want my turkey.
I want my mashed potatoes.
Where's mary-kate? She's at rose'S.
where's dinner?What happened to dinner? The turkey?The mashed potatoes?The cranberry sauce? Everyone happy at the table? Yeah,it ain't gonna happen.
Come on,come on.
Get up.
You and me,we'll get it back on track.
What do you say? Colin and mary-kate save thanksgiving.
Colin,it's over.
It's done.
It-it's in the books - an official catastrophe,grade-A.
This was gonna be my first real thanksgiving.
I was really looking forward to it.
I know.
I'm sorry.
Hey! where's your pot? I don't have any more.
Liar.
Where is it? I just had that little bit.
I gave- look,I want a joint right now.
