David, eager to prove his progress and independence, enlists the help of a fellow participant, Anna, to prepare a Thanksgiving dinner, hoping to impress both Dr. Rachel and Dr. Luke. He plans the meal as a surprise, aiming to showcase his new skills and invite them to a formal dinner that evening. Dr. Rachel, stumbling upon David in the kitchen, is initially suspicious and stern about the unauthorized activity. However, upon seeing David’s genuine excitement and hard work, Rachel allows the dinner to proceed but subtly reminds David that his success reflects Rachel’s influence. The evening sets the stage for a deeper exploration of David’s need for approval and his relationships with both doctors.
Happy thanksgiving
