When Reagan causes Chris to miss his favorite holiday - the annual Thanksgiving with his family back in Maryland - she's determined to give him an even better Thanksgiving at home. Meanwhile, Ava and Walter go on a quest to do charity work on Thanksgiving, only to find they're needed in the most unlikely place. Elsewhere, Scott tries to put together a Thanksgiving dinner with his friend Paul and some other divorced dads.

While Reagan secretly hangs out with her ex-sister-in-law, Connie, Chris and Scott compete for jobs against Scott's ex-father-in law. Meanwhile, Ava takes a fan and her family on an unusual "Hollywood" tour.
