The Indians in Cicely celebrate Thanksgiving by throwing tomatoes at white people. Joel is Ed’s first victim and he is angered because in his words he is “definitely not white.” The town gets decorated with skulls and pumpkins as they also celebrate “The Day of the Dead.” Joel also gets bad news in a letter telling him that he must serve another year on his contract. Mike’s latest reactions to the environment are caused by something he can’t trace so he thinks about moving to Greenland. Chris waxes nostalgic and decides that the something missing from his life is “the joint” when he finds a can of beans that he remembers from Thanksgiving.
