Ridge arrives with wine and flowers, surprising them all. He wanted to spend Thanksgiving with his family.

Odd Couples
At Il Giardino, Daphne is singing for an audience of three… Deacon, Sheila and Carter. It turns out it’s a sound check for the following week’s performance. They all gush about her voice and she thanks the proprietors for the opportunity.

Sheila announces that the turkey is in the oven as Deacon shows Carter what he’s been up to on his laptop. Carter offers free legal advice if he needs it. They agree to leave their differences in the past, and Deacon invites Carter and Daphne to join them for Thanksgiving dinner.

Carter made plans for them for dinner, so they take off, wishing Sheila and Deacon a Happy Thanksgiving. Sheila tells Deacon how impressed she is by the new, improved Deacon Sharpe. She shows off the new and improved pink polish on her eight toes, before telling him she’s so thankful for him… and also Taylor. Deacon nods, “Yeah, me too.” He cryptically adds that Taylor made an impact him “in more ways than one.” Sheila asks what they talked about and he says she got him to open up and honor the growth he’s made. Sheila believes this is a new beginning for the both of them. Taylor brought him back to her.
Checking In
Over at the cliff house, Taylor takes a pie out of the oven and Ridge makes dad jokes, such as, “I yam what I yam.” After pouring wine, Taylor tells Ridge they’re happy to have him there. He explains that he had lunch with his dad and the Logans. Tay says Steffy’s thrilled he’s there. He asks if Taylor’s happy. She assures him she can breathe now that she’s out of that unhealthy cycle.

As the food comes out of the oven, Ridge and Finn argue that they can take it from there. Steffy and Taylor give them their aprons and retire to the sofa to drink wine. Taylor thinks Ridge is worried about her, but she assured him she’s good. Steffy thinks her mom is incredible.
The Final Scenes
Deacon speaks Italian to Sheila over Thanksgiving dinner, and she thanks him for doing all of this for her. She asks about his morning with the kids, and he says it was great. Sheila admits she’s been thinking of Finn and Hayes but not obsessing over it. Deacon toasts to having everything. Sheila pulls out the wishbone and Deacon gets the wish. She asks what it was, but he can’t tell her, or it won’t come true. She gushes that hers already has come true.

At the cliff house, they all sit down to Thanksgiving dinner and Kelly says she’s thankful they’re all together as a family. Hayes is thankful for pumpkin pie! Finn is grateful for his beautiful family. Ridge remarks that he’s so lucky; his daughter’s happy and Finn always chooses his family. “I love you.”

Taylor seconds that, and feels fortunate to be there with them all. Steffy, trying not to get emotional, admits that their smiling faces make her feel thankful… they’re stronger and safe. Safer than they’ve ever been. Having her parents there together… she couldn’t ask for a better Thanksgiving. Ridge asks them all to hold hands and they all wish each other a Happy Thanksgiving. The kids yell, “Let’s eat!”
