After learning how Zephyria is depicted in the media, Zorn attempts to teach Alan about his culture. Meanwhile, Edie wages war with her new neighbors over their talking garden gnome.

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.
