With a family Thanksgiving planned in Ginnie and Bob's loft, Ginnie, Anne, Marjee and cook a traditional Sorelli dinner using all of their mother Francesca's (guest star Dana Delaney in flashback scenes) favorite recipes. The sisters also reminisce about memories of their mother. Meanwhile, Anne is frustrated over her feelings for Rose's classmate, Zach (guest star Andrew Keegan, “7th Heaven”); and Renee (guest star Christine Ebersole, Tony Award winner for “42nd Street”) is rushed to the hospital with a stress-induced asthma attack after Ginnie blows up at her.
