Wonderful Episode. GH really wins with the Spencermaines and the Davis/Jones/Scorpio combinations.

Lulu trying to get Dante to the Q's, not happening. CarJax family gone to NYC so Michael home with Lante.

Edward sighing over picture of Lila. Tracy and Maya primping in mirrors before their Spencer men arrive. Edward says they are wasting themselves on the Spencers. Maya asks if that's what Edward thinks then why the $1 mill. Edward thinks Ethan has a chance of redemption through Maya. Luke arrives and Alice immediately offers him the drink Edward has forbid her to poor for Luke. Luke tells Tracy she looks like a million bucks, to which Tracy retorts "That would be Maya, I look like a lot more". Luke breathes deeply of Tracy's wit.

Siobhan gets Lucky to agree to go to the Quartermaines for Thanksgiving.

Davis/Scorpio/Jones daughters working on getting Mac and Alexis together.

Luke offers to fix Tracy a plate of orderves and Tracy says she'll skip the arsenic. Luke and Ethan chuckle and Maya says she doesn't get it. Ethan says he will explain in her room but Maya begs off. Luke intervenes asking if Ethan knows nothing of romance - when the woman of your dreams is nearby, never miss the opportunity to tell her. Tracy sarcastically asks where's the cheese. Mayan laugh at that. Ethan tries to work his way into Maya's pants again (boy really is a broken record on this one). Edward wonders why they aren't eating dinner, and Tracy says they are waiting for their other guests - Lucky, Lulu and Dante. Edward doesn't want Lucky who always fleeces him at Poker (seriously, this is NOT GV's Lucky anymore) and Dante's paternal connections.

In one quick Lante conversation we learn that Liv is in Bensonherst with the Falconaries, and Sonny is with Mike and Bernie. Lulu is not happy with Dante wanting football over family. Dante says it's an opportunity for him to spend time with his brother and Lulu says he's pulling the brother card? Well she's got two brothers who are with Tracy, and that is her family!

Maya busts Ethan trying to steal a cigar from Edward and calls Ethan on being shallow - not planning on sticking around after sleeping with her if Edward hadn't offered them money.

Tracy still planning the wedding, saying corporate takeovers are easier. Luke tells her whatever she wants, which she translates into his not caring. Luke assures her he does care about her happiness, isn't that enough? Tracy says while they are on the subject, she wants him to keep the next 4 Mondays open for Tango lessons - the dance of love. Edward says if that's the one that ends in tragedy then it's perfect. Tracy says no, that's the Passa Dobley. Then she tells Luke he has three responsibilities. 1. to pick up the tab, 2. to sign the pre-nup, and 3…. she wiggles her left hand. Luke questions that she wants him to give her a manicure? lol. Edward interprets "Buy her a ring, you buffoon. Luke smirks while Tracy says it's so people can tell she's betrothed. Of course, Luke says, but he'll do it on his own time in his own way. Edward retorts that that means Luke hasn't stolen anything yet. Luke rolls his eyes and says "Oh please…" Lucky and Siobhan arrive and she does charm the socks off of Edward. Really sweet actually. Edward is such a horndog.

Ethan still trying to get in Maya's pants. Siobhan explains her connection to Lucky to Edward, and thanks him for hosting them. Edward warns her to keep her hand on her wallet and her eyes on Lucky - he's the smoothest of the lot. Luke tells her not to listen to Edward, that the Spencer Men are all enlightened and entrepreneurial. Ethan continues that Edward is jealous because they encourage women to reach their full potential. Tracy picks up on that saying that means the Spencer Men are entirely comfortable letting their women support them. Luke smiles at her while Ethan continues that they are the modern day Robin Hoods who steal from the rich and give to the poor. Maya adds her two cents and says by poor Ethan is referring to himself. Lucky steers Siobhan away from the family and says it's not too late for a nice Italian dinner in the city. Siobhan says no, she wouldn't miss this for the world. Lulu arrives alone and they are all glad to see her. Edward asks about her "no good boyfriend" and Lulu says he's not coming. Edward then says "thank God for small favours" which rubs Lulu the wrong way.

Dante/Michael cave and head over to the Q's.

Mac plans on spending Thanksgiving with Robin and when she questions about Alexis, Mac admits there's no spark there. (The writers obviously listen.) Robin eventually convinces him to join the Davis family dinner. Diane gives Alexis a similar talk about grabbing the good in what life offers and finding the magic once you have it.

Edward blusters when Alice serves Luke. Alice protests that he's got to eat, to which Edward replies "not a Spencer". Lulu asks if she should be offended and she says no, Lulu takes after her mother. Siobhan asks if Quartermaines hate Spencers so much, why are they lining up to marry them? Tracy answers that despite the heartache, being married to a Spencer is more interesting than all of her other marriages put together. All the Spencer Men smile in acknowledgement with Luke saying Tracy makes an excellent point. At that point Dante arrives and Edward is just about to give him the boot when he sees Michael. Edward says it's a wonderful surprise and Michael says it was Dante's idea, that he insisted upon it.

More Davises/DiLex counting their blessings. Major Spixie propping - Maxie disappointed that Mac stayed with Robin, says some people can't see love even when it's starring them right in the face. Enter Spinelli with firewood that he promptly drops when he sees Maxie. Maxie returns with a breathless smile, as Mama Diane looks on approvingly (seriously, SOMEONE make Diane Spinelli's mother STAT. CH is certainly playing it that way - and we know she wants it.)

Matt basically tells Robin to get her sh!t together about Patrick.

Lulu pulls Siobhan aside for a discussion about her intentions towards Lucky.

Mac arrives to join the Davis/Jones/Miller family to make is involving the Scorpios. Then Matt arrives (invited by Maxie) and bumps Spinelli out of his chair. Everyone else feels for Spinelli and in the end Maxie is sitting between Spinelli and Matt.

Back at the Q's Edward tells Michael it doesn't matter where the rest of the CarJax family are, he's a Q and is always welcome at the mansion. Edward tells Michael he looks wonderful after this past terrible year. Michael asks about Monica and Edward says she went to a Spa - this time of year is so hard on her since Alan's death. But she will be very sorry she missed him. (Sorry for your A&M fans, but that DOES make sense.) Edward then asks about school and Mikey says it's better than prison. Edward then blusters about a Q in Pentonville being an outrage. Michael says he'd still be there if Dante didn't get him out, so Edward turns to Dante and says as long as Michael says so then Dante's welcome. Dante thanks him but Edward continues that he's welcome as long as he doesn't "revert to type", ie. become like Sonny, or throw Lulu off for another woman because Alice will put him in a Double Chicken Wing and throw him out. Lulu just shakes her head with her mouth open unable to speak while Alice glares, lol. Ethan STILL trying to get into Maya's pants. Suddenly Maya realizes LuNacy is missing and wonders where they are.

In the den Luke is looking at the ring with the eyeglass. Tracy sneaks up behind him and snatches it out of his hand. Luke protests that it doesn't work that way, that he's supposed to be on bended knee. Tracy asks if it's Monica's ring or has he been in her mother's jewelry box. She thinks she recognizes it but can't quite place it. Luke assure her it's real, which of course she doesn't buy. Luke smiles that he got it in Amsterdam from a reputable Jeweller while he was away and some day when they are cozy and only have their memories, he'll tell her the whole story. Regardless he got it for her and it's real. Tracy again says it's glass but Luke again promises it's real, then he asks if she wants it or not. Cue theme music with lyrics, and Tracy says well, she'll try it on to see if it feels right. Tears are forming in her eyes as Luke smiles on. Luke points out it fits and Tracy says it's a lucky guess. Luke says luck had nothing to do with it. Tracy trying to contain her emotions says if it's real, she'd say he's doing pretty good. Luke says it is real and what does she say…. "will you take that leap into the unknown with me? Be my bride and let me love your forever." Tracy obviously moved grabs the Jewellers eyepiece from his hands to have a look herself. She comes to the conclusions that it's real and turns to him while Luke continues to look adoringly at him.

Spencermaines gather in the living room as Alice walks in with the pizza. Siobhan is confused and asks about the American turkey dinner, which gets the full story from Lucky and Edward re: Thanksgiving Pizza. Luke walks in holding Tracy's hand and says "That boys and girls is how a tradition is born." Tracy feigns coughing with her left hand to show off her ring. All the kids are impressed with the "rock". Alice says he can always change his mind while Edward tells "Daughter" to have the ring appraised. Michael wants them to tuck in but Edward stops them saying they have to sing first. Edward starts (no smirking this year) and Siobhan is the first to join in. Alice also sings and it looks like Dante tries. Everyone else smiles together happy in their pairings.

Montage continues with Edward/Siobhan singing then instrumental as we see Scrubs family together in the hospital, then Davises et all around the table, Sam/Krissy/Diane making sure Spin is seated by Maxie since Matt took his seat. Alexis gestures for Mac to carve the bird. Back at the Q's everyone finishes singing and wishing each other Happy Thanksgiving, and Trace is the first to grab pizza. (No talking to the audience this year.)

And that 's it - great episode.

Do any of you know if the Thanksgiving episode of The City is on Youtube or anywhere? That was one of my favorite Thanksgiving soap episodes ever; it was right after Tracy moved to Soho. She fit in so well. I think that was one of the most seamless soap transitions I've ever seen -- it's a shame that didn't get enough credit.

It was great -- this was not long after Tracy had come to Soho, but when the apartment building they all lived in lost power, she and young Dillon joined everyone else in the bar for a potluck type of dinner. They lit candles, and "Seasons of Love" from Rent played for a montage.

Aww that sounds great. It is almost impossible to find City stuff. I was kind of annoyed I tracked down someone with old City tapes and had a friend from here transfer it to dvd, I shared it and then that person put it all on youtube.

My fav of all of the City was when Tracy hired the fake Q family to her engagement party.

Somehow, someone must have those old clips! I'm going at finding things! LOL
