Storyline
| Plot Summary |
While ordinary people look forward to enjoy Thanksgiving and later Christmas, the Formans suffer, even in anticipation, worse then usual, especially when Red's mother, hence Kitty's -in-law, from hell announces a 'festive' family visit, yet a cancellation can be bad too... For Eric it's sister Laurie's hot friend Kate, a seductress whose siren-tongue goes deep enough to feel guilty towards Donna, whom he tells despite the hornily sympathizing basement boys' warning: dumped and a lecture from Red... Midge makes Bob offer part-time (un)employed Red a job in the hardware store, but the feeling of a charity motive makes him refuse, reconsidered at the feast. Written by KGF Vissers |

| Quotes |
Red:
Eric, Donna just came through here looking very upset. Would you have any idea what that's about? Eric: I have no idea. She seemed fine when we... You already know, don't you? Red: Of course I know. Donna is such a sweet kid. How could you do this to her? Eric: I don't know. You know, it seems like bad things are always happening to me, like I have bad luck or something. Red: Son, you don't have bad luck. The reason that bad things happen to you is because you're a dumbass. Now fix it. See more » |
