The Chances
1 Happy Thanksgiving.
Ooh.
Wow, you are really giving it to that turkey.
Pro tip, you have to season the turkey from the inside.
It's much better that way.
Okay.
What is that? I got you a present.
Open it.
My hands are, like, really buttery.
- Oh.
- Could you - Yeah.
Yeah.
- Yeah.
Is that A really fancy crystal turkey? Yeah, it is! Gobble, gobble, gobble.
You really didn't have to.
You don't like it? I mean, wow.
Well, like, Thanksgiving's not really a gift-giving holiday, so there's not really a lot of good Thanksgiving gifts to give.
It's beautiful, really.
Thank you.
Okay.
I'm going to the gym.
Can you please be back by 4:00? Because that's when Michael and his family are gonna be here.
Okay.
And also, the turkey is gonna be at its peak deliciousness at exactly 6:00.
Just chill out a little.
I will not chill.
It is Thanksgiving.
Okay.
Thanksgiving.
I'll be back at 4:00.
Thanksgiving.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Ah, come on! "Jungle Juice"? Hey, Danny.
Hey, Jacob.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Hey, hey.
I'm all sweaty.
The Okay.
Yeah.
No, I was just at the gym.
Come on, dumb-ass.
She was asking you how you are.
Oh.
Sorry.
I'm good.
I'm doing real good.
Nah, I was just doing, like, legs and arm I'm I gotta go shower.
Ecch.
Ooh.
It's too much.
So every year on Thanksgiving, I turn into, like, a Martha Stewart kind of Thanksgiving monster, but there's a reason.
I lost my father on Thanksgiving when I was young.
That's why I think it's important to tell the people you love that you're thankful for them.
Too often, we don't until it's too late.
In my family, especially, after my Dad, I always felt like everyone knew something that I didn't.
And here, with you all, I don't feel that way.
So And thank you for sharing your family.
Hey, can can you voice, please? No.
Yeah.
Okay, that was good.
That was awesome.
Yeah.
Uh I'm thankful for Kate, of course, because I mean, I-I know that you'll stand by me, like, no matter what.
What's What are they talking about? What are they saying? You know, Danny, I'm thinking that something you could have said you were thankful for is that, uh, your fiancée doesn't know that you don't have a job, but we all do.
That would have been something, huh? What the fuck did you just say to me? Are you not getting it? You don't deserve her, you fucking loser.
Danny, what the fuck? Just go back to sleep.
It's nothing.
Lay with me, honey For a while You don't have to stay But if you do, it'll be all right Let the weight of the world Fall softly on my pillow And rest 'til the morning light I'm not asking for much of your time I just want a piece of your mind But your mind Is on the rest of the world And how can I compare to that?
