Rafe wanted to talk to him too, but they were interrupted when Gabi and Philip arrived at the house. The Hernandez family went through with their family traditions for Thanksgiving. Everyone talked about what they were thankful for. Gabi became uncomfortable when Philip talked about what he went through during the year. After they finished dinner, Leo and Rafe decided to talk. Rafe asked Leo about his investigation into EJ’s clinic. Leo didn’t have much information to give him. He changed the subject to talk to him about his relationship with Javi.

The Hortons had their Thanksgiving celebration. While Jennifer was setting the place cards for dinner, Thomas wondered where his father was sitting. He didn’t want his father to be near him. Jennifer knew it was hard for Thomas, but she was glad that he was willing to invite him to dinner. He snapped at her that he agreed for Charlotte’s sake. During the Hortons’ dinner, Thomas and Charlotte talked about pulling the wishbone. Charlotte wished their father would come home. Thomas hoped he never did. Jack checked on Julie. She talked to him about how she expected Doug to come down the stairs. It’s hard for her to believe that it’s been a year since he passed away. She admitted that days drag for her and that there hasn’t been much fun in the house for a long time. Jack knew things were rough with Chad. Julie felt like taking Chad’s children was more than rough. He hoped the lawsuit would knock some sense into Chad. Jack let her know that he and Jennifer didn’t want to hurt Chad. JJ arrived home and wondered if Chad was there yet. Chad didn’t show up at the house. He wanted to help Jack carve the turkey. The Hortons waited for Chad, but he didn’t show up.

Tony and Kristen wondered what Rachel and their brothers were doing. They thought Chad was with the Hortons, EJ was alone, and Rachel thought her mother abandoned her. Tony thought about Anna. They realized that they had to get out of the crypt. Kristen continued to dig her way out, but she cut her hand. The siblings try to figure out who was responsible for them being there. Tony thought the person didn’t want them to starve since they have enough food to last for years. He wondered how long the person planned to keep them in the crypt. They started arguing while they were in the crypt. While they were arguing, they heard the door open. The Hernandez family waited to hear Javi’s answer to Leo’s proposal. Javi said he would marry him. Jennifer was upset that Chad didn’t show up for Thanksgiving dinner. She wondered if Chad was with Cat. Jack knew what it felt like to be the pariah and thought the dinner was too much for Chad. He hoped that Chad was okay. Julie’s phone pinged and Jack checked it out. It was from Chad. He said that he just saw the message and wanted them to tell the kids that he loved them. Julie sat alone and looked at Doug’s picture. She asked him to do something to bring peace to the family. Julie broke down and cried. A body was dumped into the crypt. The man’s hands were tied behind his back. He had a hood on his head.
