Part 1. Special request: The Webbers have invited Grant Putnam over for dinner. Blackie starts stealing food so he can bring it to Lou later that night. He and Amy bicker as usual.
Edward has a nightmare at Thanksgiving...and it's one of the funniest nightmares. From the Godfather like music when Sonny appears to Lila declaring that she's going to the Dominican.
