Very fun holiday episode I loved seeing Amy's dad and the binder-ception when he had his own binder Them solving the case was fun too.

The live turkey subplot made me I'm glad I don't know the conclusion to that lol.

Also Holt and Pimento convincing everyone at the bar to watch the dog show = gold.

"that's right, we're feminists" Amy sticking up for herself and her choice to date whomever she likes was the best part. I had a feeling Mr. Santiago wouldn't like Jake but I'm so happy they solved the case together so at least now they have mutual respect.

Great thanksgiving episode!

This episode was really fun! It felt like it went by faster than normal for me though, especially the Jake/Mr.Santiago plot.

I loved the callbacks to things like Jake's obsession with Taylor Swift, Amy's love of Will Shortz, and Jake not pronouncing Nikolaj right.

Amy's dad being a step ahead of Jake was great and I loved how Amy's speech led to them solving the case and realizing that her opinion was the only one that mattered in regards to who she chooses to date.

Not going to lie though, I'm hoping that the next time we met one of Amy's family members it will be in a B plot that revolves around her, where Jake briefly pops into the storyline to meet them and then pops out .

This was such a fun ep! Definitely going onto my rewatch list when I'm in the mood for some B99. All the plots were great.

Def! I'm glad she had some interaction with him though, it was cute.

/\ Agreed (with both).

It was still pretty well balanced, tho. I really liked the episode, very funny.

Agreed. I understand that Jake is the main on the show but I would love to see Amy take over the A-plot. It's an ensemble show afterall.

Nonetheless, great Thanksgiving episode. Had the right festive feel.

^ Yes, I love Jake but I still maintain that the show would be even stronger if other characters were able to have the main plot every once in awhile.

Yeah, their first scene together was really cute. I loved hearing that all the Santiagos have a favorite font. I wonder how many fights they've gotten into about which font is best .
