Thea struggles with Thanksgiving and pretends not to hear the gossip about her and Gavin. Her least favorite WAG, Rachel Tamborn, makes several barbed comments, and Thea uncharacteristically responds in kind. At dinner, Del announces Nessa’s pregnancy.
Later, Thea congratulates Nessa, who apologizes for not sharing the news earlier, as she did not want to overshadow Thea’s struggles. Thea feels guilty. Rachel then subtly jabs Thea about her unfinished college degree and implies her pregnancy was a ploy to marry Gavin—Thea counters by pointing out Rachel’s pre-law degree led nowhere. Soledad, Yan’s wife, tries to defuse the tension by asking Thea to design a charity logo. Thea agrees but argues that the term “WAGs” is limiting and non-inclusive, sparking another argument.
Thea leaves to check on the girls, and Gavin follows, asking about Rachel’s behavior. When Thea confirms Rachel has always treated her poorly, Gavin asks why she did not tell him. Thea asks why he never noticed. As they leave, Nessa advises Thea to give Gavin a chance.
Ava feels sick and vomits on her sister as soon as they get home. Amelia then also gets sick. Thea and Gavin briefly argue when he cannot find clean towels, but Gavin helps clean up and put the girls to bed.
