Episode Descriptions:

"A Thanksgiving to Remember" November 28, 1996- Brenda bounces into the Jacks' living room, handing Jax a drink. "I am SO excited about the start of our first holiday season as a married couple!" They kiss. She asks if Australians celebrate Thanksgiving. Jax says his family never did till they mobed to Alaska, and then "we didn't eat dainty little birds. Lady Jane usually bagged a moose..."
Brenda doesn't want to hear about that.. she gets up close and personal as she tells him she's going to show him what Thanksgiving is about. He laughs, "How? You're going to point to a picture?" She says he shouldn't make fun of her culinary expertise. "You know I love you madly, Brenda, but you don't have any." She admits that while that may be true, she's a whiz at room service. There's a knock at the door. It's Miranda, accompanied by violin music. As the girls turn t and chorus "HI!" Jax is stunned as he listens to their personal and way too friendly conversation. Sonny appears with a platter of mooseburgers. Brenda and Miranda complain. Miranda: "Sonny, he won't pick one of us!" Sonny responds: "And you're surprised? The guy's a wimp!" He's brought duelling pistols. They start to count off and Brenda hugs and kisses Sonny, muttering "Come here, baby, I'm going to get rid of him once and for all." At "ten!" both Miranda and Brenda have their pistols leveled at Jax, who looks particularly young as he shouts "WAIT! I can explain!" He wakes up. He's on an airplane. Later, awake, he remembers Miranda and Brenda.

Kevin is watching football, sharing popcorn with Sigmund. "Yo, LUCE! I think I'm starting to get this now!" She comes in with some veggies and is amazed he's watching football. He belches. "Oh, boy. I'm startingto get this craving for salami. We have any?" No, but she has this lovely hors-d'ouevre tray. Kevin yells at the TV: "Are you BLIND? Stupid and blind? Oh my..." Lucy sits next to him asking for romantic music.. he's not listening, because he's standing up and cheering. The doorbell rings. It's Felicia, accompanied by the same violin music. Kevin: "Come on IN! Make yourself comfortable!" Lucy is surprised, but Felicia says, "Where ELSE would I be on Thanksgiving except with my bestest friends in the Whole Wide World?" Kevin is waving someone in: "Come on IN! Make yourself comfortable!" It's Tom. "You're looking extremely obsessive compulsive today, Lucy!" Lucy, confused, thanks him, and Kevin waves in someone: "Come on IN! Make yourself comfortable!" It's Mac. "Hi, Lucy, what's for dinner?" She starts to explain they weren't expecting everyone and Kevin yells: "Come on IN! Make yourself comfortable!" to Katherine, who to the accompaniment of spooky organ music says, "Mac! You walked away right in the middle of my sickness!" "Ewww!" from Lucy. "Kevin, please get away from the door NOW!" Behind her, Felicia is drawing stick figures at the easel. Kevin closes the door: "Say, can I get anyone a refreshing beverage, perhaps a delicious snack?" Lucy tries to say there are no snacks. Kevin looks at Felicia's drawings: "I'd call it minimalist." Katherine, stuffing her face, admires Lucy's outfit. Lucy looks down, and she's naked! Felicia goes off to get her something to wear, and Lucy snatches a tablecloth to wrap herself in. Kevin excuses himself to go -- check on Felicia. Lucy doesn't think that's a good idea but Mac stops her to hold her for questioning in the abduction of Sigmund Coe Collins. She says that's actually Collins Coe, and the duck came of his own free will... but Sigmund isn't there. Katherine is stuffing herself with duck. She belches. Mac pulls off his shoe, which is actually a phone. "10-4, Roger Wilco, Over and Under, Yeah, this is Police Commissioner Scorpio and I want an APB out on a missing duck. (to Lucy) Haven't we done this before?"

Felicia runs out of the bedroom and jumps on Lucy: "He's coming, he's coming, he's after me!" Tom saunters up behind, holds up a piece of celery, and asks: "care for a stalk?" Kevin: "Felicia! Answer the phone!" It rings, and she answers it, no one is there. Kevin laughs, Felicia runs, Kevin chases her, Katherine asks for plum sauce, Mac is still on the shoe, describing the duck with arm and hand gestures, and Tom is munching his celery. Tom: "If you didn't insist on separating Kevin from Ryan, Ryan wouldn't be out right now." Felicia and Kevin run around Lucy. Lucy asks "are you Ryan?" He answers no. Oh, good, then he's Kevin. No. He's Devin. Tom does a Sherlock Holmes impression: "Fascinating." Kevin, uh, Devin, says: "That guy and his secrets! I can't believe he didn't tell you about the rest of us -- there could be ten, maybe twelve." He counts on his fingers... Kevin, Devin, Evan, Ryan, Tryin, Cryin, Dyin, Lyin, and Bruce! Lucy is horrified and covers her ears. Devin excuses himself: "Gotta run." Felicia is sharing duck
with Katherine and does not like being called by Devin. "Oh, ALL right!" She starts to run, he chases her. Katherine tells Tom he must try the duck, so he does. Mac is still on the shoe. Tom says "Fat little sucker, isn't he?" and Lucy screams.

She's actually asleep on the couch and Kevin is sketching her. Lucy jerks awake. Kevin says "hi." Lucy wants to see what he's drawing. She doesn't believe she looks that peaceful to him considering the dream whe was having. He comments that she smells a little bit like apples, and she immediately panics over the stuffing. He pulls her back and checks. It's her. They kiss. There's a tapping at the door. Lucy worries, DID Kevin invite anyone? It's Sigmund who apparently forgot his key.

Later a delivery boy comes with a tray of salami and a sixpack of beer. Lucy is watching a football game with running commentary on the cheerleaders' outfits and the cute butts of the players, while Kevin tries to sort out WHY there's a tray of salami and a sixpack of beer. Lucy explains that she was worried that he was going to want these "manly man" kind of things. He denies he's that different and they hug and kiss, but Lucy sneaks another peek at the game.

Katherine is enthusiastic about how the meal is coming along. Mac asks if Miranda is in the kitchen. Katherine says she left. Mac is disappointed but "Oh, well, there's always a bright side. This way I get to devote all my attention to the GAME!" He clicks on the TV and asks Katherine to get him some popcorn. When she brings it, she tries to climb in his lap, but Mac is so engrossed in the game he doesn't notice, jumps up to cheer and dumps her onto the floor. She's hurt her elbow. Miranda, in football shirt, comes in with beers and sits next to Mac. They push Katherine's head down so they can see better. She goes off to get the doorbell. Suddenly she's dressed like June Cleaver, hair and all. Pink shirtwaist, pearls, the works. "I'll get the door, don't anybody move now." Miranda is in Mac's lap and they are enjoying the game. At the door, it's Brian kissing a scantily-clad Lucy. Katherine protests: "You are the Face of Deception! She is the competition!" "I know, I can't help it." Lucy sings: "He wants to marry me!" Katherine protests that she can't marry Brian, she's going to marry Kevin. Miranda comments that she could marry them both. Lucy invites Katherine to be her matron of honor. Suddenly Katherine is in a cop uniform. "Matron of honor?" Brian, meanwhile, is gazing at himself in a hand mirror. "Sullen, that's my bread and butter, don't-cha think?" They all chorus at Katherine: "What's for dinner?" Katherine thinks she started to cook something, and Lucy tells her that the cook's daughter has to sing for her supper. Katherine protests that she doesn't sing, and Lucy counters: "I know that, but you simply must." They all chorus: "SING!" Katherine is in Shirley Temple outfit and curls. She sings and dances to Moonlight Bay while Brian, Lucy, Mac and Miranda look on. (Interesting the differences in Lucy's and Katherine's nightmares. Lucy's is a lot more detailed, and has to do more with her fears for Kevin, while Katherine's is blunter, and about still being the Cook's Daughter. Both, however, feature the other as a villainess.) Mac comes in and kisses Katherine away. "Have I ever told you just how innocent you look when you're sleeping?" She tells him about her dream, though "Lucy was there which I reckon upgrades it to a nightmare!" Mac comments: "You know, I'll bet you two were married in another life!" "Ugh! Don't even say that word! There's far too much of that going around if you ask me!" They talk about Robin, who is at least with Jason. Miranda has made herself scarce, so they start to cuddle on the couch, which I would have thought was a mistake, since Miranda could turn up any time.

Ruby attempts to kick Sonny out of Kelly's which is closed for their annual feed-the-poor time. He's brought a message from Robin who is dishing up food at a homeless shelter. He's also brought a check, and he tells Ruby to go get some rest, he and his henchmen will continue to serve the meals today.

Edward is relaxing and Alan, Monica and Emily come in with some wood for the fireplace. It's nice and nippy and and crisp and wonderful. They stick the wood in the fireplace. Alan says: "I can't wait for it to start snowing. I just want to go sledding so badly!" They stand in front of the fireplace hugging and Edward says, snidely, "Let me guess. The Waltons! Very good. You keep this up all through dinner and you will make Lila very happy." Emily hopes they won't have pizza again. "Mercy, no!" Ma Walton, uh, Monica says. "Bite your tongue!" adds Alan. "It's going to be a traditional, old-fashioned Thanksgiving." "Not so fast!" interrrupts Reginald. "Sonny Corinthos." The violins play. Sonny says, "Tell me something, Reginald. What is it I do that makes you so nervous all the time?" "Uh, I don't know, breathe maybe?" "Nonsense," beams Alan, who has obviously been hitting the pain pills too hard, "Sonny's a PAL. An Invited Guest come to spend the holiday with us." Monica chirps up (also on the happy pills, apparently) "And we COULDn't be more pleased!" Sonny tells Reginald: "I've always been a believer in libe and
let live. I never saw any reason why we all just can't be friends." He puts his hand out for Reginald to kiss. Edward is huffing about Sonny and that jax character stealing his business and Sonny tells him not to take it personally, he'll have himself another heart attack. Emily goes to Sonny and hugs him. "How are you?" "So much better now!" she responds.

Justus bops on in. "Hey! (to Sonny) My Main MAN!" He has all the deep dark nasty secrets on Edward. Sonny is delighted to know that Edward whacked Damian Smith! "I did no such thing!" Sonny shows the file to the family. "Grandpa!" "Edward!" "Father!" Ned comes in wearing an Eastern monk's robe. "Oh, Ned!" exclaims Edward. "Thank God you're here! This whole room has gone mad! Although I shouldn't be surprised and I -- uh -- what the devil are you wearing, Ned?" (Mysterious Asian music plays) "Ah. Grandfather. That is precisely the point. The devil is no more. All is peace. Harmony. Oneness in the universe. Now that I've discovered my spiritual path." "Isn't that Wonderful?" beams Alan. "GOOD for Ned!" enthuses Monica. They applaud. Brenda and Jax come in, wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving. Jax and Sonny shake hands. "Yo, Sonny BOY!" "Yeah, what's the word?" "Thunderbird." "What's the price?" "Eddie twice." Edward is blustery and baffled. "ELQ has been taken over by cretins and imbeciles! Now, Ned, you have to do something!" "I intend to," Ned replies calmly. "Sonny, Jax, come to me, please. I propose we donate all existing ELQ assets to various Bensonhurst charities and start all over." They think this is a great idea. Brenda remarks: "Jax and I should rummage through all these old knickknacks and pick out some wedding gifts for ourselves, don't you think?" Ned agrees. Brenda smiles at Jax: "Come allong, my little blueberry muffin!" Jax: "Whatever you say, sweetums."

Alan says: "Perhaps now, Father, there'll be room for me in a kinder, gentler ELQ." Edward isn't going down without a fight: "That'll be a cold day in Hell." Ned says, "The CEO position is wide open. You and Justus can fight it out to your heart's content." Justus says "Oh, no, please, please, Alan you take it, I insist. I'm gonna work with Sonny on his end of things." Edward blusters "No no no, now this is unthinkable for you to betray me like this!" Justus says: "EDWARD! I'm struggling with my identity! Today -- I'm the Rebel in the family!" Reginald comes bouncing in: "They're here!" The family all assumes their positions. It's President and Mrs. A.J. Quartermaine. Keesha is in pillbox hat and Chanel suit, very Kennedy-esque. "Ruffles and Flourishes" plays. "My Fellow Americans: One thing that you can be certain of isthat A.J. Quartermaine likes his sweet potatoes -- with plenty of marshmallows." Edward shouts: "This is a NIGHTMARE!" and they chorus:"SHUT UP, EDWARD!" Lila wheels in. "Good news, everyone, good news! I just spoke to Tracy. She's coming home, and she's bringing Dylan with her!" Edward covers his eyes. Lila dimples at A.J: "Nice to see you, Mr. President." Jason drives his motorcycle into the room. Lila hopes he'll stay for dinner. "Oh, grandmother, I can't. I've only got enough time to rip off a few candlesticks and meet up with my buds at the tattoo parlor." At this, Emily lights up. "Oh, Alan, can I go, PLEEEEASE. I've been dying to get 'Quartermaines rule' tattooed on my thigh!" Alan beams: "Of course you can, my precious girl!" Edward asks: "Have you all gone stark staring mad?" He tells Emily that she's not setting one foot out of the house with that hoodlem. Emily sweet-talks him: "Ah, Edward, I would rethink that position. You see, Justus and Sonny have taught me to use surveillance equipment and I've taped all your private conversations. If I don't get my way, I'll turn them all over to Dara Jensen." Monica says, "I'm so proud of you, Emily!" Alan agrees: "A True Quartermaine at last!" Keesha informs them that the CIA has checked into Edward's background. It turns out he has another illegitimate son. That's enough for Lila: "That's IT! Dominican Republic, here I come!" Sonny grins at Edward: "Hey-ya Pops, how's it going?" "Oh, goodie," says Prince Charming. "I've always wanted another brother! jimmie Lee Holt never made it for me! Sonny! My bro!" They hug.

Monica was having so much fun she forgot to give Edward his medical results. It's Good News! He needs surgery right away! "What for?" "It doesn't matter." Alan's hand is all fixed and he's ready. Alan puts his claw up: "Gee, Monica, ya think?" He hopes he remembers how to do surgery. "It's like falling off a bike," Jason comments. Alan has a bright idea: "You (to Jason) used to be premed, would you like to assist? What do you think?" "I don't know. Sonny? What do I think?" Sonny thinks it'd be great, and Justus agrees that "having a henchman with surgical skills could prove invaluable." "Cool," Jason enthuses. They gather around Edward. He mumbles and mutters. He's asleep in the chair with Reginald and Lila watching him. Reginald asks: "You think we should wake him?" Lila thinks "might as well let him sleep while he can." Edward wakes up with Lila watching. Ned comes in: "Happy Thanksgiving." The family comes in. Ned asks Emily if she's happy about her parents' reconciliation. She changes the subject. Justus and Keesha come in, and AJ starts to talk business till Keesha stops him. Reginald announces that Cook has resigned. SOMEONE sullied her kitchen by making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. "I was HUNGRY, OK?" A.J. sputters. The turkey is still half-frozen. Alan says, "Well, I think we know what that means!" Ned says "Make mine pepperoni!" They start to sing while Reginald tries to place the order. Reginald finally says "You do this every year!"

November 27, 1997 It's the Thanksgiving GH Update!- Brenda goes to the door. Jax is there with dessert. He comments that she's all dressed, and the house isn't full of smoke. She's had a little trouble defrosting the already-stuffed but still-frozen turkey in the microwave, which is all his fault, of course. She'd made the "black cranberry sauce" because, tee-hee, she wasn't sure what "gelled" meant. Brenda keeps looking out the window, expecting the catered meal to arrive. This is logical, considering how often Jax has pulled her chestnuts out of the fire lately, but he actually believed her this time. There's no parachute. Brenda says "we'll just go out" but Jax the "I'll fly it in from Ireland" guy doesn't have the enormous resources of the Quartermaines, who know how to get a take-out meal on Thanksgiving. They have marshmallows and Brenda has the great idea to make s'mores with frozen graham-cracker crust and the chocolate torte he brought. "Brenda, DON'T BAKE!" he pleads. They end up eating the s'mores. Awww, so cute.

Liz is having a cigarette while purportedly looking for Gatsby. Sarah comes out and they almost talk pleasantly. Audrey is holding flowers and Nik comes by with a centerpiece. "Just like the Pilgrims," Liz remarks. "Bring gifts to the natives and kill them and take everything they own." No sign of Gatsby, maybe he's gone for good. Just then the doorbell rings. Audrey asks pleasantly: "Would you get that, Elizabeth? It's probably the juvenile authorities come to take you away." It's actually Lucky, holding Gatsby. Audrey, who is vaguely manic, claims that Gatsby once sent her a postcard from Chicago. There are many awkward pauses. Then Foster barks. Apparently Lucky took his Thanksgiving treat (Gatsby) away. We hear G. yowl. Lucky leaves. Gatsby gets back. Liz, outside, flirts with Lucky.At dinner Audrey asks Nik to say the grace, and they look at Steve's empty chair.

Luke lets Mac and Felicia and Maxie and Georgie in, shouting over his shoulder to Bobbie: "Your annoying neighbors are here." Foster is here. The bell rings. It's Tony and Carly. "Hello doc Bro ex-in-law" says Luke. "Carly." Carly hands Luke the flowers she's carrying but drops them just before he gets them. There's an awkward pause. (Lucas dashes in for his present and dashes out again.) Bobbie suggests they stay for dinner? Tony and Carly try to back out, with Luke saying in the background "they have reservations" which is a double meaning for sure. Luke certainly has reservations! Bobbie says they need to establish a precedent. They will be having holidays together, the children will play together, they need to practice. Tony and Carly give in. The bell rings, and it's Amy and Ruby. Luke tries to talk Bobbie out of having Tony and Carly. At dinner, Luke makes a toast. It's just all so family and nice that Carly can't stand it and leaves the table. Bobbie follows her. Carly tells her she's really good at the holiday stuff. They have a bonding moment.

Annabelle comes in, but Luke tells her Foster is "so over you, babe!" She has a soggy note from Edward, but all Luke can decipher is "Quartermaines thieves!" "Well, Annabelle, tell us something we don't already know." That favorite humorous couple, Mac and Felicia, are being quirky and perky again, over the dishwasher, which has bath toys in it.

Jason is at the Penthouse having a traditional Q Thanksgiving meal, pizza, when Emily comes in. He's having his mail forwarded from "that woman at Jake's" and he's gotten two sweepstakes offers and a thing for Princess Diana collector plates. Emily gets right to the point: "As long as you're eating pizza, why don't you have Thanksgiving with us?" Monica is asking Alan what's wrong with Mario's? Alan wants something a little more fancy for Thanksgiving, a gourmet pizza. Monica argues: "I want a traditional Thanksgiving pizza, I don't want one that's made out of spinach!" Lila comes in with Keesha and A.J. A.J. asks: "Disaster strike already?" Alan suggests they call all the pizza places NOW so the employees can go home. Monica tries to get A.J. and Alan out for a walk. Suddenly there's a scream from the kitchen and a dog barking, and Justus comments: "That's not our turkey barking!" Lila suggests, hopefully, "Maybe Cook's finally managed to murder your father..." but Edward disappoints her, running in after Annabelle and Raoul. They've had the garlic mashed potatoes and the gravy. Monica hands Alan the phone for Mario's. Edward says no, he's made plans for every contingency. "Nothing will stop us from celebrating a quiet pleasant uneventful family Thanksgiving." Ned and Alexis come in. Back at the Penthouse, Emily asks why Jason doesn't sleep in Sonny's room.

Ned says Reginald says Cook is upstairs packing. Edward starts to object to Alexis' prescence, and Lila shuts hims up. Edward: "Responsible or not, we still know under whose roof she sleeps every night." Alexis responds: "That would be yours, Edward." Ned tells them that Alexis and Stefan have had a parting of the ways. Lila asks if someone thought to take the turkey out of the oven, and A.J. is surprised: "A turkey actually MADE it to the oven?" Alan gets up to call Mario's, but Edward says it's his place to take care of everything, and he's ordered the pizza already. Justus, missing Mary Mae more every minute, asks: "You mean we're giving up on our turkey dinner without a fight?" Edward: "Indeed we are NOT." He plans to pile into the limo after dinner and take the pizza down to the homeless, "won't that be fun, mmmm?"

The bell rings. Reginald comes in with three "Pilgrims with pizza". Raoul barks. The family discusses the masks, then the Pilgrims pull guns. Edward argues, as the family empties their pockets. The haul is disgustingly small, only $64 and change. "Don't you people carry wallets?" "In my own home?" blusters Edward. Monica says it ruins the line of his pants. A.J. asks for his wallet back, and Justus gets his driver's license back, and Monica goes for her contacts, and Keesha is surprised she wears them. Ned rescues his cell phone, and Edward goes to retrieve his gold pens, "they're not really of much value." Lila has apparently been at the martinis again, because she erupts: "I **BEG** your pardon! That's solid gold!" They all discuss this.

Alexis says while she's not really familiar with the protocol, she suggests they take the armed robbery seriously. Robber #1 says "We can't go back with $64!" Alan agrees that the Quartermaines would be laughingstocks if that got out. Lila tells a robber that his mother should have taught him better than to manhandle an old lady in a wheelchair. The bad guys dither. Lila says it's all most upsetting. A.J. assures her that "they don't want to hurt anyone. DO you?" Lila says "No, these gentlemen don't seem to have any idea what they're supposed to do!" She points out the silver. She tells them to pack up the silver and leave. Then Alan suggests they take an ugly vase. The Quartermaines try to get rid of other stuff.

Meanwhile, Edward writes a note for Annabelle to take to Foster. Jason shows Emily the cooked turkey he plans to use for sandwiches. She says that's proof he's not a Quartermaine, "no Quartermaine has ever come that close to a fully cooked turkey on Thanksgiving." She leaves. The phone rings. Jason remembers Robin saying how sorry she feels for the Quartermaines and how he's supposed to take care of Jason Quartermaine's family. Ned hands over a mantel clock. Alan looks at a kaleidoscope, but Monica reminds him that Emily's fond of it, so the robbers can't have it. Emily comes in. She's really surprised that they're getting robbed by Pilgrims. They'll be in big trouble when her brother Jason hears about this. She mentions Sonny's name. The Quartermaines are interested to hear that Jason lives in the penthouse now, but the robbers are more concerned about the dreaded name "Jason Morgan." Jason comes in with Pete and the turkey. The robbers rush out, leaving everything and knocking the turkey to the ground. They leave a note from Tracy, who has planned this robbery. Raoul comes in with pizza all over his face. They order Chinese takeout and sing their song.

Nov, 1998 - no Thanksgiving episode aired, the show re-aired L&L's wedding

November 25, 1999 Thanksgiving episode- At the Quartermaines, Monica phoned from a seminar in London to speak with Alan and Emily. Carly bowed out of the festivities by pleading a headache. Edward felt he had thwarted the annual Thanksgiving bust by buying two new ovens. Emily surprised everyone with the information that she had invited Juan to dinner. Before dinner was ready, she asked to be excused for an hour or so to visit a friend named Michael. Alan asked who this person was and Emily said that he didn't know him very well. Alan asked that she be back in time to eat her turkey or pizza before it got cold. Edward admonished Alan for being so lax with Emily and he told his father that it was about a foreign concept to him: trust. Edward said that Monica and Alan were doomed to fail as parents (AJ tossed in, "Thanks a lot!") and Alan asked Edward where he, of all people, got off telling anyone how to raise children. Edward was aghast and said he had been an ideal parent. Alan asked him to then explain Tracy. Juan and Emily return to find the Quartermaines sitting down to a pizza dinner after a mishap with the new ovens. They sang several rounds of "We Gather Together To Ask the Lord's Blessings" as Carly looked on from the door.

Luke was at the club drinking when the phone rang. It was LuLu calling to with him a Happy Thanksgiving. He continued drinking, noticed the light blinking on his answering machine and listened to the fake message from Felicia…then listened to it again. He remembered his adventures with Felicia, interlaced with scenes of them swing dancing. He ended by thinking of their kiss in Mexico. Later, Laura arrived at the club with LuLu to tell Luke Happy Thanksgiving in person. Luke was not there, so they left a note for him. We then saw Luke on the docks, looking out toward Wyndemere, then putting on a pair of dark John Lennon glasses.

Laura called Mrs. Lansbury to tell her she'd be late. She remembered the bad times with Luke, from the time he found out about her affair with Stefan (at the trial) until the present. She remembered the good times with Stefan and smiled.

Hannah told Sonny how happy she was that they had invited Mike. Sonny reminded her that Mike had invited himself. Mike showed up and he and Sonny argued about everything from rotisserie turkey cooking vs oven turkey cooking to apple vs sausage dressing to yamsvs garlic potatoes. While they argued in the kitchen, Hannah remembered her happy times with Sonny since they met to the present, as well as her meetings with the FBI. Emily and Juan knocked at the door, interrupting her thoughts. (Sonny was the friend named Michael) Juan brought a loaf of bread to Sonny and wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving. Sonny thanked him. Hannah invited them to dinner, but they told her they had to get to the Quartermaines. After the left, Mike gave his usual eulogy glorifying Hannah.

Jax showed Ned how much cash he'd been able to come up with by liquefying his European assets. Ned boasted that he could make that in a day. Chloe and Alexis arrived and the four discussed the pros and cons of traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Jax preferred Moose and Ned was hooked on pizza by being a Quartermaine. Chloe told them "Tough," she had already ordered a dinner and all they had to do was go pick it up. Everyone but Jax left to get it and Jax remembered his times with Chloe from the day they met to the present. The song, "Head Over Heels" played. Later, the four had dinner together and Jax offered up a touching toast.

Carly played with Michael in his room and told him that they had a lot to be thankful for, but the money and the stuff wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that they had someone who loved them and they'd be going to stay with him soon. She remembered her life with Jason from the day they met until the present.

November 27, 2000 Thanksgiving Episode- Carly suffered the after affects of her attack and was too bruised and sore to even get out of bed. She wanted to go to Bobbie's for Thanksgiving dinner, but Sonny thought it would be a good idea to stay home with Michael. He cooked a meal for the three of them and the new family ate their first Thanksgiving meal in the bedroom. Bobbie and Roy prepared a Thanksgiving feast for their extended families and friends. Tony shared pleasant memories of past holidays with Bobbie and thanked her for being such a forgiving person. Gia cooked dinner for Nikolas and herself and was surprised when he told her that he had invited Liz, Lucky, Emily and Juan. Lucky teased Nikolas about his potential attraction to Gia while a sad Juan fretted when Emily didn't show up. They settled in for a nice meal, but Gia decided at the last minute to go to the Brownstone for dinner with her mother and Taggert. On her way to the cottage, Emily stopped by the prison to see Zander and lightened his mood by telling him stories about her family. Rather than continue on to Nikolas's, she went back home and celebrated with the Q's. Edward was determined that this would be the first real Thanksgiving the Quartermaines had had in years. He gave cook the day off and hired the chef from the PC Grill. Monica and Alan were prepared for disaster since cook never let anyone in her kitchen.

Their fears were realized when cook came home early, kicked the chef out and refused to cook. Everyone was relieved when A.J. came over with several pizzas and they sang their traditional holiday song.

Nov 22, 2001 Sonny catches Carly at Jax's penthouse, and Sonny offers to put up the money for Carly's new club in order to get her away from Jax. Sonny admits to signing the divorce papers, and Carly refuses to accept Sonny's offer.

A jealous Skye accuses Jax of hoping to seduce Carly in order to torture Sonny, and Jax suspects Carly of using him to manipulate Sonny. As a result, Jax backs away from Carly's business proposal, but stubborn Carly presses on, and Jax ends up taking her to an undisclosed location. Sonny shares a Thanksgiving dinner with Mike, and Mike begins to confess past sins until Sonny overrides him with his own admissions.

Luke makes it to Bobbie's home for the holiday, but Bobbie and Scott get detained for speeding. Laura asks Luke to fill in as host opposite her and Luke finally agrees. Later everyone is happy as they sit down to Thanksgiving dinner. Serena approches Laura and asks her if "its" true. Laura asks her what "it" is and Serena says that Lu Lu told her. After Laura tells her that its ok to say whatever she has to say Lu Lu announces that Laura is going to marry Scott (which Laura has not decided yet) and Lukes happy face goes to a shocked one.

Lucky speaks to Elizabeth over the phone, and he clearly remainsunsettled. Nikolas also appears troubled after Stefan speaks badly of Stavros, and Nikolas slips away, leaving Gia with the Cassadines, to visit Helena in prison. At the same time, Alan hopes for a real Thanksgiving dinner (which does not consist of pizza) at the Quartermaine mansion. He sends the cook away and hires a chef to make a real holiday feast. The Quartermaines almost have a normal Thanksgiving dinner until a food fight occurs between Monica and Skye which ruins dinner, (especially the turkey which goes flying onto the mantel). The Quatermaines are stuck with pizza once again.

November 28, 2002 Courtney's dream episode- Courtney experiences a series of strange dreams, which are all vaguely similar in the sense thatshe keeps reliving the same day over and over again with a few different twists. In each dream, Courtney anticipates kissing Jason but always ends up sharing a kiss with someone else. After growing weary of the repetition, Courtney goes on a preemptive strike to end the outcome of her day. Courtney finally gets to kiss Jason in her final dream. But as it turns out -- all the dreams were actually part of another dream- Jason's dream.
