The Middle season 3 episode 9, called "Thanksgiving III," follows the Heck family as they prepare for their annual holiday feast. With Axl home from college, the family is excited to have all their kids back together under one roof. However, as they begin to prepare for the big meal, things start to go awry.
Frankie is tasked with making the turkey, but finds out that it is still frozen solid on Thanksgiving Day. She frantically searches for ways to defrost it, struggling to find a solution. Meanwhile, Mike tries to fix the dishwasher with the help of Axl, but ends up getting covered in water and soap.
Sue, as usual, is overly excited about the day and wants to make sure that everything is perfect. She sets the table with her "fancy" decorations and is in charge of making the green bean casserole. However, she accidentally uses cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of celery, resulting in a disastrous dish.
Brick, on the other hand, is excited to watch his favorite TV show marathon all day. He tries to avoid helping with anything, but eventually gets roped into helping with the cooking.
As the day progresses, tensions rise as the family argues about everything from the temperature of the oven to the proper way to carve the turkey. But as they finally sit down to eat, they realize that despite the chaos and mishaps, they are still grateful to be together and celebrate their Thanksgiving traditions.
The episode is full of humor, as viewers watch the Heck family's Thanksgiving festivities come together in a hilarious and relatable way. With the perfect mix of chaos and heartwarming moments, "Thanksgiving III" is a must-watch for fans of The Middle.
