(More customer reviews)I absolutely loved this celebration of our nation's first official holiday! This episode embodies all that Thanksgiving is meant to be about. Fall is "in the air" (pumpkins & skeletons) as tomatoes go flying toward the Caucasian population on the streets. Dr. Joel Fleischman... a Jewish member of society, originally does not see history in relation to the upcoming Thanksgiving celebration through the eyes of his fellow native Indian citizen. However, thanks to the Alaskan gov't, Joel finds out that he is further "enslaved" to a fifth year of medical service to the state of Alaska. Upon realizing that this proposition is quite valid & legal, Joel resigns himself to the situation and begins to view things as hopeless. Alas, his "eyes" are now beginning to see things for the first time as a fellow native Indian. The feeling of hopelessness allows Joel to participate in the annual Fall Festival Parade typically reserved for only the native Indians (a culture of fellow victims of a sense of hopelessness, historically speaking). All is not lost, however. Joel, along with Maggie's current love interest (played by actor Anthony Edwards..E.R.), decide to lay all mental obstacles aside during the town's Thanksgiving feast...just long enough to enjoy it!!!!! You will leave this episode feeling warm & fuzzy each and every time you watch it!!!!!!
