(The Kramdens, Alice's parents and Nortons arrive at Hard Rock Cafe. It is 9p.)
Alice's Mom: "Sonny boy, I have been hungry since 12p. Since you did a real good job BURNING the turkey, I am really starving. So is everyone else."
Ralph (yells): "ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT! I AM STARVING TOO. IT WASN'T MY FAULT THAT TURKEY BURNED. HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO PUT THE TURKEY IN THE STOVE FOR TWO HOURS."
Ed: "Ralph, thanks to you, my two thanksgiving dinners have been ruined. Tonight and yesterday when me and my sewer buddies were having a feast only for the tide to come in."
(Ralph rolls his eyes.)
Ralph: "Time to get a table."
Alice's Mom: "Ralph, I hope you won't eat all the food here. We are all starving."
Ralph: "Don't you worry. You dirty ole'..."
Alice: "Ralph!"
(They all sit down.)
Alice: "Ralph, the next time you cook, don't cook on Thanksgiving. You were only doing it to show superiority and not to help me."
Ralph: "Are you finished with all your lectures? Are you finished with the 'If- you-only-did-what-I-told-you-so''s? ARE YOU FINISHED WITH THOSE?"
Ed: "She's right there Ralph."
Trixie: "Yeah."
Ralph: "All right. I'm sorry. Let's all be thankful for the fact that this restaurant is open."
Ed: "Let's also be thankful for the fact that Toys R' Us is open and that I can buy toys at the end of the dinner."
(Ralph rolls his eyes.)
(Finally they all get the dinner.)
Ralph: "First, let's all give account of what we are thankful for tonight. The fact that we live in a free country."
All (yell): "HERE! HERE!"
Ralph: "I am thankful for having a wonderful wife in Alice who puts up with my crazy ideas every week."
(Alice laughs.)
Alice: "I am thankful for having a big caring husband like you Ralph."
Ed: "I am thankful for having my swere job but moreso for having a beautiful wife in Trixie. She is a sweet kid."
Trixie: "Thank you Ed. I am greatful for having a husband like you."
Alice's Dad: "I am thankful for having a wonderful daughter in Alice and a great, big son-in-law in Ralph."
Ed: "Emphasis on big."
(Ralph laughs.)
Alice's Mom: "Me too."
Ralph: "Also, I am thankful for having two great in-laws."
Alice: "I am also thankful for having wonderful, caring parents."
Ed: "We should also be thankful for having wonderful friends here."
All (yell): "HERE! HERE! HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!"
(Everyone raises their glasses and clings them.)
