Mom Kirsten (Kelly Rowan) and son Seth (Adam Brody) both have much to answer for after their outrageous behavior during Thanksgiving. While still wondering if she should become involved with Kirsten's father, Caleb (Alan Dale), Julie (Melinda Clarke) has trouble dealing with the fact that Kirsten's husband, Sandy (Peter Gallagher), is dispensing advice to her own soon-to-be-ex-hubby, Jimmy (Tate Donovan). In other developments, perpetual rivals Ryan (Ben McKenzie) and Luke (Chris Carmack) temporarily bury the hatchet while teamed on a history project, and a prominent O.C.er makes a disturbing revelation.
