影片对白：
Messer: You're selling the house? When were you gonna tell me about this?
Holly: After our meeting with CPS. It's just too big, Messer. The upkeep's a fortune. You know that.
Messer: I'm paying my half.
Holly: I appreciate that, but it's still not enough.
Messer: You should've asked me, Holly.
Holly: Oh, like you asked me about moving to Phoenix?
Messer: You're not selling the house.
Holly: Yes.
Messer: They wanted her to grow up here.
Holly: What they wanted was for you and I to raise her together, but you walked away from that obligation.
Messer: You sure didn't waste any time finding somebody else to hold her diaper back, did you?
Holly: Oh, Well. Are you gonna try to make me feel bad because you walked away?
Messer: You wanted to do it all on your own, but you never could've done it without me. That's why ten seconds after I was gone, you found yourself with Replacement Messer.
Holly: He is not Replacement Messer.
Woman: Sound really travels in here, don't you think?
Holly: You know what? He is nothing like you. Sam is nothing like you. He is warm and kind, and he doesn't run away at the first sign of something real.
Messer: Yeah, I ran. My best friend died, and overnight I had a house and a baby. I'm sorry if--
Holly: If what?
Messer: I was scared.
Holly: You don't think I was scared?
Messer: It was easier for you, Holly. You wanted this. You wanted the life that they had.
Holly: But not the way I got it. Jesus, not the way I got it. And certainly not with somebody who didn't love me back.
Messer: But I did. Holly, I still do.
Holly: No, you're right. We were just...We were just pretending to be them. Because we needed each other to get through everything. And now that's done, and we don't need to pretend anymore, Messer, okay? I don't wanna fight with you, please.
Messer: I'm gonna go back to Phoenix. You can handle Janine on your own. Looks like you got things covered here without me.
Holly: Oh, damn it.
Messer: Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. It was great to see you all. If you're ever in Phoenix, don't be afraid to look me up. [Sophie crying] Shh, shh, shh.
Holly: Okay, dinner is served. You guys all should try the stuffing. Really, it's amazing. There's an andouille-sausage thing going on, so you'll love it. Go ahead and dig in. Come on, everybody, just....Eat, now.
*******************************
Holly: Thanks for coming. Yeah, okay, that was bad.
Sam: Yeah, maybe we did go too fast. You clearly have unresolved feelings for him.
Holly: Messer and I barely got along under the best circumstances...and there weren't very many of those either.
Sam: If my wife and I fought like that...well, we'd still be married.
Holly: You know, before anything happened to Peter and Alison, you were exactly the guy I wanted to be with. I would lose time thinking about you, and I didn't even know your name yet.
Sam: I'll miss you guys.
Holly: "Leonardo was a terrible monster. He couldn't scare anyone. He didn't have 1642--"
Sophie: Mama.
Holly: No, Holly. No, I'm Holly.
Sophie: Mama.
Holly: Yeah, baby girl. I'm your mama.
*************************************
Holly: The truth is, you know, sometimes it works better...with one person doing everything, you know? No charts, no arguments. I know it's not ideal. But since when do parents get the ideal, right? Right? Right, pretty girl? Huh? I know, I know. I'm sorry. I can't do this. This isn't right.
Janine: Is there a problem?
Holly: Yeah, I'm an idiot. I gotta reschedule. I'm sorry. I need to get to the airport.[page]

感恩节传统食物
感恩节的食品极富传统色彩。每逢感恩节，美国人必有肥嫩的火鸡可吃。火鸡是感恩节的传统主菜。它原是栖息于北美洲的野禽，后经人们大批饲养，成为美味家禽，每只可重达四五十磅。现在仍有些地方设有猎场，专供人们在感恩节前射猎，有兴趣的人到猎场花些钱，就能亲自打上几只野火鸡回家。使节日更富有情趣。
按照食谱，一只20磅左右的火鸡要烤上4个小时，直到火鸡完全熟烂了。它需要整只烤出，鸡皮烤成深棕色，肚子里还要塞上许多拌好的食物，如碎面包等。烧火鸡的汁，会被用来制成黏稠的肉酱，伴上甜甜的红莓果酱，作为火鸡的调料。
火鸡的吃法也有一定讲究。它需要整只烤出，鸡皮烤成深棕色，肚子里还要塞上许多拌好的食物，如碎面包等。端上桌后，由男主人用刀切成薄片分给大家。然后由各人自己浇上卤汁，洒上盐，味道十分鲜美。感恩节的食物除火鸡外，还有红莓苔子果酱、甜山芋、玉蜀黍、 南瓜饼、自己烘烤的面包及各种蔬菜和水果等。这些东西都是感恩节的传统食品。
感恩节餐桌的布置也很有特色。主妇们不是照往常一样摆放鲜花，而是摆放水果和蔬菜。中间还常常放上一个大南瓜，周围堆放些苹果、玉米和干果。有时人们还把苹果或南瓜掏空，中间放满去壳的干果或者点燃蜡烛。平时，女主人可以在饭后把客人让到客厅里，但在感恩节却不这样做。感恩节的聚餐是甜美的，每个人都愿意在饭桌旁多呆一会儿，他们一边吃一边愉快地回忆往事，直到最后一根蜡烛燃尽，他们才离开那可爱的餐桌。
美国人吃火鸡时多数是焖烤。通常是把火鸡肚子里塞上各种调料和拌好的食品，然后用烧烤袋包好，整只烤出。
传统的感恩节大餐包括了烤火鸡，有些家庭是以烤鹅来替代火鸡；还有塞在火鸡内部的填充佐料（Stuffing），是用撕成碎片的玉米面包（CornBread）、白面包和芹菜等等做成的；除此之外还有用火鸡内脏煮成的浓稠淋汁（Gravy）。另外还有一样特别的酱汁——小红莓调味酱汁（Cranberry Sauce），用的就是每年九月和十月时盛产的小红莓。
其它的配菜还包括烤洋芋泥、烤红薯泥、青豆和比司吉等等。最后的甜点当然有应景的南瓜派，也可以准备核桃派或苹果派。
