Description

A deceptively cozy (and unsurprisingly belated) Thanksgiving episode. A history of traumatic repression lies just under the surface of a warm, kind facade you could only find in New England... hey, just like Thanksgiving itself! What truths will come to light? What relationships will change forever? And what is this family's last name? Nobody can seem to recall, least of all our intrepid hosts. This week, we're taking a peek into one of Julianne Moore's less well-known films, The Myth of Fingerprints. The title is about as good as the movie, so take that for what you will.

Things to be thankful for:

• The brief threat of an incestuous scene.
• Cezannes! He changed it!
• Chekov's (Impotent) Gun.
• There's a scene in which two characters inexplicably have an emotional conversation, while sitting on the middle of a frozen lake. Somehow, Mia and Nic failed to mention this, and failed to make a reference to that line from The Dead Zone that they love so much.
• Mustard, and its many ineffable qualities.

Thanks to Tom Lehrer for the use of our theme song, "Selling Out".
