* DreadedKidsTable: Bernard wants a place in the grown-ups table as he's long since outgrown the kids' table (emotionally and ''especially'' physically), and at first it looks like this year he has his chance, until his older cousin Vanessa drops in unexpectedly and takes the extra seat. By the end, Bernard gets his seat at the big table, but now appreciates the times spent at the kids table with Craig.
