Original subtitles

No, this is not right.

How? It's like a lobster at a restaurant.

Lobster at a restaurant? This is not like a restaurant.

Lobsters don't run, okay?

Okay, I want a good turkey this year. I want it fresh, not frozen, with all that

chemical and junk on the inside.

Chemical? You don't know that. This is like a crack house for birds. It should

be perfect this year, okay?

You know, I wasn't really there those other years.

And even when I was there, it was like I wasn't really there.

No, I get it. I understand.

You hate yourself, so you're working it out at a turkey slaughterhouse.

I get it, man. I get it. I get it.

Shouldn't we be on a plane to Baton Rouge somewhere, man?

No, I pushed my flight back.

Took another shift.

Ah, Cece, I couldn't. Those turkeys, they were looking at me.

I looked back at them. I don't understand why you're making such a big

deal out of this.

I'll just...

Pick up a free-range turkey from the market.

I know, but I just want the day to be perfect. Cameron, all I need is you

here. All right.

Love you. Bye.

Turducken.

What?

You want to impress her, get some culture in your life, and make her a

turducken?

D-bone turkey, you stuff it with a D-bone chicken, and then you stuff that

with a D-bone duck.

That's how we do it on the bayou.

That's what we do. Sound like chicken incest, man.

What do you mean? That's Cajun, man.

Well, well, well.

You guys look bright, breezy, and thankful this morning.

Oh, they broke into the 25-year-old scotch and talked medicine all night.

I am heartbroken that I missed that.

Morning, sweetie.

Morning, Daddy.

And when can we expect you?

My shift is over at 3, so I guess I will come down right after. Will you be

bringing anyone?

No, not this year, Marcy.

You're really going to come visit?

¿Cuántos años ha pasado?

¿Cuatro años?

Oh, girl, we are going to tear it up.

No, no puedo. Tengo que trabajar.

Pero te llamo después.

Oh, yeah, he's here.

Como... Yeah, conejo, pero como seis pies.

Oh, yeah.

I'm sure he's into that stuff, for sure. Okay.

That was my cousin Vivian. She is awesome.

Man, I haven't had a family Thanksgiving in three years.

Yeah? You would like her.

She would like you. Yeah? Mm-hmm.

Well, I know what Conejo means, and I'm 6'1", by the way.

Rabbit, come to dinner tonight.

Seriously, it's like nothing you've ever seen before.

You want to be thankful, this is the place.

Yeah, sounds cool, but I got my own traditions.

You sure?

This is Vivienne.

Wow. Mm-hmm.

But I got plans. Sorry.

Really? Someone I don't know about?

You don't know about any of them.

How's it going out there?

Just about.

It's looking good in here.

Turkey fries, good to go.

Ow! Oh, God, be careful. I will, I will.

Did you hear about this? I've been on the Internet, going over every turkey

recipe on every website, and I'm telling you, this year is going to be the

perfect bird. All right.

It's a deep-fried turkey. It's supposed to be out of this world. Okay, just

please be careful. I will, I will.

Is he gonna be okay? Ma'am, ma'am, I know it looks bad, but your husband's

gonna be okay.

Ma'am, I'm sorry. This is not the Thanksgiving you planned.

All right, just breathe normally, okay?

Did you see what happened back there? Did you notice that?

What? We rocked that call.

Oh, yeah, I did, man.

Hey, man, I can't take you to the airport.

food back at the station and everything, so I gotta make this year right, man.

Shift's over at 3 o'clock. You cutting and counting close.

You're not even gonna make it for dinner.

Eh, well.

I know you're right, man. I would say you're trying not to go home.

What's that all about?

No, it's just... This happens to be the year I promised myself I would tell my

parents.

Tell them what?

Oh, dude, I'm sorry.

Mom, Dad, I'm gay.

Please pass the carrot.

Please pass the carrot. That's gonna make for an interesting Thanksgiving.

All right, fourth degree burns, both full fitness and partial, two large-bore

IVs, an NAS, NPA, pulse 95, BP 130 over 70, and a trauma score of six. Let me

get a turkey fryer.

Yeah, you got it. Third one today.

Hey, his wife's on her way. Yeah, I'll keep an eye out for her. Hey, thanks.

Whoa. What?

Ain't been working with that one anymore.

She's busy.

Yeah, keep telling yourself that.

Why don't you get that?

Hey, Ma.

Hi.

He's gonna be okay.

They're treating his burns now.

He will have to stay here for a few days.

A way to spend Thanksgiving.

Yeah, I know.

I'll come and get you as soon as you can go up and see him.

Thank you so much.

Hey, thanks for doing that.

So, where are you spending your turkey day?

Same place as your friar dude.

Right here.

Intern. Remember?

Can't forget it.

So the whole night?

Is that an offer?

Might be.

Yeah, I will be here all night, and heads up, I'm really not in the mood for

banter today.

Well, fair enough.

You okay?

Yeah, I just, I'm tired, and I miss my family, and I'd rather be with them than

here, and flirting with you is just, um... Yeah, look, Rabbit, you live

alone, you're gonna die alone, and I just, I'm not in the mood to be the

entertainment in between today.

Hmm.

Too heavy?

Not exactly cherry.

Yeah, look, like I said, I'm tired. Sorry.

Happy Thanksgiving Day.

Now you're just, like, desperate.

Let's go.

Thanks. Okay, who wants to give him a bath?

I got one for you, Gina. What's his DVI?

I'd say about seven.

That's being generous.

Maybe. Here you go, guys.

Thank you, Nancy. Hey, what's DVI? Dirtbag index.

The number of tattoos divided by the number of missing teeth added to the

estimated number of days without a bath.

Wow, that's gross.

Yeah, you gotta love the nurses, hey?

Hey, do not put that in your report. You'll get written up.

Come on. Glenn?

What's up, Rabbit?

Hey.

You okay?

Just peachy.

Gobble, gobble.

Why? So, what are you doing?

Thanksgiving. I'm at my dad's. Woo-hoo!

Football game, Linda and Troy and Peter drinking too much and discussing the New

England Journal of Medicine.

That happened last night, so I hear.

But Peter isn't even coming home this year. But I bet you still got that video

of your granddad's gallbladder.

Please, no.

Not this year.

You remember a lot, huh? I try to forget.

Sounds like you know the drill.

What about you?

You know me. I've always got options.

But you're going to blow them all off.

And go and have shots at Lefty O'Doul's and some turkey buffet.

If I don't see you, happy turkey day.

You too.

Perfect. Middle seat, three hours for now. Okay, all right. Oakland airport.

Hey. Uh-huh.

Okay, I got it. I got it. Okay, hour before it ticks off. All right, happy T

-day.

What? Dude, if you don't want to go home, you don't have to go home. But

eventually, you're gonna have to tell them. No, I'm not.

I don't have to.

Trust me, I'm protecting them, okay?

This is the humanitarian way to go about this. Okay, so you're gonna live a lie?

Trust me, that ain't the way to go.

Eventually, he's gonna catch up to you. Your family's gonna figure it out. It's

gonna eat you up on the inside.

It's gonna be like a lose-lose situation.

Lose-lose. Those are my choices? I guess I'll lose, then. Because, trust me, it

is better than sending my parents into cardiac arrest.

So how you gonna tell him?

Just think about texting him.

Facebook, maybe.

No? Okay, you know what?

Maybe it'd be a little something like this, huh?

Tell me what you think.

Mom?

Dad?

I need to tell you guys that I like guys.

Like Elton John.

Full frontal like.

Dude, that's terrible.

It's whack.

Don't talk to me like that. Whack? I can come out of the closet better than that.

You can come out of the closet better than me. All right, let's see what you

got, Mr. On the Down Low. Let's hear it. All right.

Mom and Dad, have a seat.

Let's get to it.

I love you.

And I know you love me.

I'm your son.

I'll always be your son.

I have something I want to tell you.

I'm gay.

Wow.

That's good.

Can I use that? Yeah, you can have it, man.

I mean, that's...

That's really good. I'm not going to use it.

You're not going to use it? Are you sure? Because that was a little too

good. It's kind of convincing. Are you sure you're not... Put your

fingers over here.

I'll put my hands in my pocket.

Like that, sissy.

Let's go.

First down.

You're lucky, little bro.

You just got a little older, big bro. Come on.

Come on, I didn't even hit you that hard.

You're ten years younger than me.

I've seen this one before.

No, you haven't.

Not with me. I'm not talking about the job.

You haven't met my brothers.

Oh, really?

Hey, guys. What's up, guys?

What's up? Oh, it's his leg.

Yeah, I look sorry to call you guys. He's being a wuss.

His leg here, right?

All right.

Actually, I would say he has dissipated his kneecap. Looks like he might have

torn his ACL.

Part of the MCL in this case, too.

I'm going to grab a board. All right, and some ice. Yep.

Brotherly love, huh?

I have two of them. One older, one younger. How about you?

Yeah, three.

All older.

How can you even sit up straight and take solid foods?

They weren't that bad.

Yeah, they were.

But I don't know, you get older and all that rivalry and testosterone just kind

of mellows into... Mild emotional abuse?

Yeah, I guess.

Right now they're sitting on the couch with their hands down their steelers

sweatpants watching the game.

Drinking beer.

That is hot.

Did you speak to them this morning?

No, but I know they're there.

Okay, so this is how it goes, right?

When you're a probie, all you want to do is get home for the holidays.

When you've worked this job for a few years... You sign up to work them.

Exactly.

Look, if I had to be with my family all day, I swear they'd have to send a rig

out for me.

Or... or for them.

Yeah? Yeah.

That bad?

I'm not joking.

Drill, this is Angel Rescue 2. We are one minute out. Requesting LZ. Over.

This is unit 283. Landing zone at Portsmouth Square.

It's going to be tight, Marissa.

What do we got? Love and a heart attack, Rabbit.

Love and a heart attack.

Love and a heart attack.

Does it sound like a song?

Sounds like a song.

Hey,

what do we got?

Premature ventricular contractions. Propped too much green tea.

BP dropped.

We administered O2 and he's stable for transport.

I don't know.

He's not.

Checking six PBCs in succession.

That's ventricular tachycardia. Drop one meg of lidocaine and give us a large IV.

What is he saying?

He says he feels his heart stop.

Okay, guys, he won't want to hurry this up.

Path of City to Staten Island Rescue 2. We are five minutes out. I got two souls

on board, a VTAC with deteriorating BP.

It's going to be okay.

Oh, yeah?

Yes.

Hongxian.

What's that?

Chinese legend.

Can't say I'm too familiar.

When each child is born, the gods tie an invisible red string around their ankle.

On the other end of the string is the person they're destined to marry, their

soulmate.

We have not married yet, so I know he's going to be okay.

Oh, hang on there, cowboy.

All right, uh, be stable.

The thread may stretch or tangle, but it'll never break.

You sure you want to spend Thanksgiving alone?

Excuse me. Could you put your seat up a little bit? Oh, sure. Thank you.

Are you excited?

What? Mother's cooking?

We're currently at our cruising altitude of 34,000 feet.

We'll be arriving in the Los Angeles area on time at 4 p.m. Pacific Standard

Okay, le pregunto. My cousin wants me to ask you one more time to please come to

dinner. And she just sent you another photo.

Is that whipped cream?

It looks like it.

Okay, sure.

Okay, sure?

Yeah. Really?

Yeah, why not?

Wow. Yeah, el dijo que sí.

No sé, creo que le hizo algo al whipped cream.

Yeah.

Okay, ciao.

Wow.

What? I'm proud of you.

For taking advantage of your relatives?

No, for getting out of your own way.

Yeah, you're welcome.

And it's up in the air who's taking advantage of who.

Whipped cream?

I don't know. No, what I'm asking is, do you have any red eyes left?

No, sweetheart, just give me a second, okay? Let me talk.

Do you have any red eyes left?

Yeah, no, I figured if I go home after Thanksgiving... Hey, what are you doing?

I'm taking you to the airport on the way home. Come on, man. Help me out.

You would like that, wouldn't you?

Just break my mom's heart, right? Make her cry grandchildless tears. You a

mother-hater, you know that? I'm trying to get out of here, okay?

Look, I thought about it. I can't do it. You are coming out of the closet this

Thanksgiving, whether you like it or not.

Can't make me.

I can put you on that plane.

What? What are you coming around here for? Let me tell you something, bro.

I am not going to be late for dinner because you can't be honest with

yourself and your family.

Okay.

Ladies and gentlemen, we're experiencing what's called

clear air turbulence.

Fasten seatbelts.

on the seatbelt side. Please return to your seats.

We're getting shaken pretty bad up here, causing some system trouble.

Request alternate landing.

Copy that, Flight 65.

Divert to Oakland International.

Sorry, everyone, but we've been diverted to land at Oakland.

Connecting flights will be available.

Maybe we should have stayed home for the holiday.

It will be an adventure.

Stay in San Francisco.

Okay.

Ladies

and

gentlemen, the oxygen masks have been lowered for your safety.

Fire on engine one. Need to shut down and land now. Will not make Oakland.

Repeat, will not make Oakland. Flight 65, we copy. Divert to Alameda Runway.

Emergency crews are being alerted. Copy that, Control.

Captain, the landing gear hydraulics have failed.

We're not going to have time to lower it manually.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking.

Due to severe turbulence, we have a drop of the landing gear and we'll be forced

to take emergency flight.

Flight crew will now begin reviewing the safety procedures.

Everybody wait!

We got a problem!

Turkey dinners are gonna have to wait!

We got a passenger jet with only one engine and no landing gear making a

belly landing at Alameda! Get dressed, get the rigs ready, let's get moving!

This is Medic 78 en route to Alameda Naval Station.

Five minutes out.

Man, take it easy.

I am.

I guess you got your wish.

What? You don't have to go home.

Cachille, this is Angel Rescue 2 en route to Alameda Naval Air Station for

immediate medevac and transport.

Copy, AR-2.

Hell of a way to start a holiday.

over to the green tarp, all right?

If you can walk to the green, you can walk to the green.

Ma'am?

Okay. Okay? I'm going to get you to safety, all right? Okay.

Okay, you let me know if we're going too fast.

No, no, I'm okay. I'll get you to a safe place.

Yeah. I'll get you out of here. Ma'am?

Are you okay?

You're okay? You're okay?

Yes. My husband, they took him over there. Who took him?

Paramedics. You did. They took him over to that tarp, that black tarp. Okay, ma

There's kind of a tunnel vision and ringing in my ears. Okay, she's Brady.

Take her down. No, no, no, no, no. What are you doing?

My husband.

Calm down. There we go. There we go. Okay, put her on O2.

Daisy, what happened? She had a vasovagal episode.

Nerve overstimulation.

Stress is overwhelming her system. I can put her on diazepam when she becomes

conscious. That should calm her down.

Well, you still have to tell her she lost her husband.

There we go.

I want to just start with some questions. Now, what's your name?

Margaret Denard.

Margaret Denard.

All right. Do you know what year it is?

2009. 2009?

Yes. Okay. Do you know what's happening? What's going on? Come on. I'm not an

Alzheimer's patient or something.

No, not at all, ma'am. These are the questions that we ask everyone to

determine if they're alert and oriented.

Okay. I'm alert. I'm oriented.

Just get on with it.

Okay. Here we go.

Fractured ribs. About three of them on the left. Okay.

Yeah, recurring basic vagal episodes.

She'll be fine.

She lost her husband in there.

You all right?

Yeah, I have to be.

Tenshi, does anybody know whose baby this is?

No.

No parents yet? Captain, not yet.

According to the flight manifest, we're short one.

Someone's still on the plane. Is Asim here?

Yes, sir.

There's a lot of smoke.

It's hard to see in there. All right, we're going to go in. I'm going to need

two medics. Here.

Me not going to live?

That's not necessarily all right.

Worse than crash landing an airplane in a fiery explosion?

Just going to see my daughter.

I talked to her in six years, and I was heading to L.A. to mend a fence.

Oh, hey, you still can.

Oh, yeah.

Don't lose my nerve.

Six years, losing out on my grandkids.

Yeah.

Thank you for your help.

Always.

Here you go.

What

happened?

A plane crashed.

Boy, you haven't been paying attention.

Oh, I didn't approve of the guy she was going with, and then they went and got

married.

And now they're having an anniversary, and it turns out he is a good man. And

what got me all wound up was just some stupid little thing.

It usually is some stupid little thing.

Yeah.

It is.

Don't get all mushy on me.

Heart rate is ready to clean 4550 BPM.

I've administered high flow O2 and NS. Here's the EKG from the past 40 minutes.

So basically she's fainted. Yeah, pretty much.

Got it. Hey, Diana. Look, Rabbit, I'm really sorry about what I said earlier.

Help me grab some of these groceries.

Yeah? Yeah.

Really? Yeah, really, man. You're family.

Man, stop looking at me like that.

So I'm a family, huh?

Gay white sheep.

My cousin saw you on the news and she thinks you're super hot. Yeah. And

Mexican. Not Mexican.

I'll see you in a little bit, okay? All right, ciao.

Why aren't you going?

It's not my thing.

What, did you find another hookup or something?

That's not cool, man.

Maybe I'm just going to be super pissed.

It's not that. I just, uh, I don't know. I don't feel like being in a crowd

tonight. No, my family's not a crowd.

You know what I mean.

Not really.

But enjoy whatever you got going on.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I'm very thankful for you guys.

Happy Thanksgiving, Rabbit.

Captain.

Let's do it. Where are you spending Thanksgiving?

Happy Thanksgiving, folks.

Happy Thanksgiving, Captain.

My parents are on their way up from LA.

Flights were all booked, so they had to drive.

That's good.

I, um, thought you might want this.

Thank you.

You ever lose someone?

I still haven't found someone.

I don't know if that's better or worse.

I'm sorry.

Will you stay with me for a while?

God, thank you for my beautiful family and my guests.

Thank you for the hands that prepared this meal.

Amen. Amen.

Amen. Amen.

Oh, Tyler, we're just so glad that you're here.

Really. Yeah? Yeah.

You know, that means a lot to me, and to be here sharing this with you guys.

And, you know, Boone family, I love you, and I know that you guys love me.

And I'm part of the family.

And I'll always be a part of the family.

And I just wanted you to know that... I am gay.

A lot easier than I thought.

Did you get those potatoes over there?

It's good.

Well, it was quite an adventure today.

I just can't stop thinking about all those people who couldn't make it home.

Marcy, I feel exactly the same way.

It's very hard.

I have this video of Shorim Resak's arthroscopic knee surgeries.

It's pretty doggone fascinating.

Sounds cool.

I did my first knee this past week.

And why didn't you tell me? What was it, a meniscus?

Actually, it was an ACL.

You did an ACL?

Yes, sir.

How'd it go?

It was hard. You know, like Billy Dugan says, the hard is what makes it great.

I would put blood on my face. You totally got it. I'm so glad you're home,

Mita. Me too, Ma.

I made those tamales just for you. The green chili and chicken? Mm-hmm. Aw.

Good job.

These are so...

Figured we gotta work all night. It's kind of slow.

Yeah.

Turkey sandwiches. You want one?

Yeah. Yeah?

That would be amazing.

Come on.

Thanks.

Much money?

Yeah.

Hey.

What?

Dad is gonna kick your ass when he sees you.

Who do you think I stole it from?

What?

You're so smug.

Jeez, when you think you know someone.

Yeah.

Are you gonna stick around?

I'll probably stay the weekend.

You gonna stay tonight?

Nah.

It's weird, Peter, not being here.

Yeah.

Guess he's starting off his own tradition.

What? This is a tradition?

Yeah, I don't know if I remember this right or if I made it up, but Mom's

stuffing way better, right? Way better!

What?

Radishes?

You think Dad and Marcy are happy?

I don't know.

I mean, they're not miserable.

You remember how he was?

Sure, but... I don't know, it just seems like something's missing.

The older I get, the more it seems that way.

I don't know how you feel.

You nuts?

What?

Hey.

So, uh... So, Lefty's was closed, huh?

No.

No, it wasn't closed.

I, um...

I just... I don't know.

Nowhere seemed to feel like the right place.

So you came here?

Yeah, I did.

Didn't I?

Here I am.

You want to come inside? I'll make you some food. No, no, no. I feel weird.

Well, it's kind of standard around here.

Come on, the turkey's actually pretty good.

Come on.

What was it?

What was it? What was your favorite show?

Webster. He had to fuck me. He had no

idea.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks for doing this. That's not Thanksgiving.

So, here it is.

The stuffing is not great, but the turkey beats the hell out of lefties.

Thanks.

Happy Thanksgiving, Rabbit.
