After a pep talk from Linda, Zorn crashes Edie's Thanksgiving to prove to Edie's mom (Jenny O'Hara) how much he's matured. It goes well at first, until Edie's mom shares her views on Zephyria. Meanwhile, Alan butters up his grandmother, hoping she'll pay for his expensive summer music camp.

Zorn's old friend Headbutt Man is coming to town. Unfortunately for Zorn, Headbutt Man is now sober. Meanwhile, Alan is invited to a party where his crush, Nancy, will be. Unfortunately, he has to take Headbutt man's daughter with him.

Torn between Edie's Christmas and Zorn's Grafelnik - the Zephyrian holiday of revenge - Alan realizes he can play his parents off each other to get better presents.
