- Hmm.

Before l sit down, l'd like to say

that it's really great...

having everybody together

for the holidays.

Matter of fact, l'd like

to make a toast. To Rebecca,

the sweetest girl l know.

l know we've been through a lot

the last couple of days,

but l still love you as much as ever,

and l think you still love me.

- So Rebecca Warner,

- [ Sighs ]

- will you marry me ?

- l, uh--

- Don't even think about it, Becca.

- Oh, man.

Listen, you guys,

l'm sorry for interrupting your meal,

but there's something that

everybody needs to know before l go.

Can't you take a hint, you idiot ?

Look, Mr. Warner, if you don't mind,

l'd like to take this guy outta here.

[ Crawl ]

Walter, you gotta hear this one, man.

Well, uh, uh, okay, Crawl.

You go ahead.

- Go ahead, Tracy.

- Tra--

Hi. Look, Rebecca,

l woke up in the barn

with Crawl this morning...

and l thought l did

something really stupid.

- Mmm.

- How can you come in here

and insult this family...

- after what you did ?

- Look, l don't remember what l did,

and l think l know why.

- Oh.

- l found these in my car.

Now, you said you saw me drive off

with Crawl last night,

but when l got in my car this morning,

the seat was so far back...

l couldn't even reach the pedals.

Somebody awfully big must have been

driving, huh, Hoss ? [ Spitting Sound ]

Theo, you know anything

about this ?

You want to pass those

mashed potatoes there, hon ?

No, no, no, no, now just to hell

with those mashed potatoes.

Now, you better speak up.

Your job depends on it.

- Theo ?

- Theo ?

Aw, hell, Walter,

it was just a joke.

- Oh...

- We took those two out there

and we put 'em in the barn.

l didn't think everybody

was gonna get so upset about it.

- So l didn't bone her.

- So he didn't bone me.

So you guys didn't bone.

Oh, now, wait a minute.

You can't really believe--

No, you wait a minute.

l gotta tell you, Travis,

it really tweaks my melon

to see a buff bro like Crawl here...

get weized on

by a greasy scumbag like you.

So you just chill.

No, Travis. You just get out.

- Hey, you can't talk to me like that.

- No, but l can.

[ Grunting, Groaning ]

Majored in karate

for two semesters.

[ Laughs ]

[ Walter ]

l gotta say something here. Theo, now,

l appreciate your honesty,

but you're fired.

- What ?

- That a boy, Junior !

Now, just take your ass on outta here

and take him with you.

You take him.

l don't work here anymore.

He's gonna need

a lot of food stamps.

[ Sighs ]

l'll do it. Ah, you are so low.

[ Groans ]

[ Connie ]

Tracy.

Would you like

to join us for dinner ?

- Are, are you sure ?

- Oh, definitely.

Great.

Come on, sit down here, Tracy.

We'd be real proud to have you

join us for Thanksgiving.

Now, how about...

having my future,

um, uh, well,

son-in-law

carve up this bird for us ?

Oh, uh, wait.

There's, um, there's something

that l need to tell you guys.

See, Crawl and l

were never actually, really--

Sure about the wedding date.

So we're gonna put things

on hold for just a little bit

and we'll see how things develop.

Hey, l can respect that.

Oh, yeah, that's a hell of an idea.

Hell of an idea.

No use rushing

into these things.

- All right, all right, all right.

Enough of that.

- Yeah.

Now, let's chow down here...

- and munch on some grindage !

- [ Laughing, Cheering ]

- [ Crowing ]

- [ Crawl ] Shut up !

- We got the point !

- [ Squawks ]

- Everybody say, ''Cheesy.''

- Cheesy !
