* AlwaysSecondBest: Adam manages to split up Murray and Marvin by getting them to play a Knight Rider board game, in which only one player can play as Michael Knight when they both want to.

* RunningGag: Erica attempting to go vegan and being repeatedly ignored by Beverly, because she's too focused on her competition with Bill. She ends up not changing her diet because the family's had enough drama for one day, and admits in TheStinger that it was just an attempt to distract herself from losing Geoff.

* AnAesop: To quote Adam after watching Murray and Marvin reconcile, which motivates Beverly to make amends with Bill: "I guess that's what today's about; being thankful for the people that are here, even if they drive you crazy."



* FamilyOfChoice: Beverly ends up making amends with Bill, whose motivation was trying to hold onto a family tradition despite his family dwindling to himself and his daughter, by saying that they can all be part of one big family.
* HypocriticalHumor: Marvin tells Adam that he should be more kind and supportive to his father...when Adam's upset after Marvin and Murray ditched and mocked him, saying how he's so nerdy that they forgot ''Knight Rider'' was among Adam's many interests.
* MiseryPoker: Bill (who's been cooking Thanksgiving dinner since his wife died) and Beverly (who once cooked dinner while their grandmother was pinned under a trolley), trying to justify who deserves to cook the dinner more.



* SymbolicallyBrokenObject: The two plots cross when a deep-fried turkey ends up damaging the hood of the parade K.I.T.T. car that Marvin "borrows" from the mall he's currently working for to prove his superiority to Murray. Coincidentally, this moment represents the lowest point in the relationships of both Murray/Marvin and Beverly/Bill.

to:

* RememberedTooLate: Before leaving with Marvin to see the parade, Murray feels like he's forgetting something while looking at a picture of Adam...and then remembers to take the camera that was left next to the picture. It's only after returning and getting yelled at by Adam that he remembers Adam wanted to come.

* SymbolicallyBrokenObject: The two plots cross when a deep-fried turkey ends up being launched out of the fryer due to Beverly's sabotage, damaging the hood of the parade K.I.T.T. car that Marvin "borrows" from the mall he's currently working for to prove his superiority to Murray. Coincidentally, this moment represents the lowest point in the relationships of both Murray/Marvin and Beverly/Bill.Beverly/Bill.
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: Bill (performer) compares his "freestyle" cooking style to playing jazz music, while Beverly (technician) has a set routine that she's perfected. At the end of the episode, after reconciling, they combine their two styles to make a meal that even failed-vegan Erica comments is amazing.
