Episode Synopsis:
It’s Thanksgiving, and Tim is dead set on not inviting his crude, slobbish, mooching friend Benny over to the house for dinner. After rebuffing Benny’s attempts to finagle an invite, Tim and Randy are shocked to see Benny in line at a charity soup kitchen for the homeless. After a guilt-induced claymation dream, Tim invites the seemingly destitute Benny over for Thanksgiving dinner - but the whole family is disgusted when they discover that Benny isn’t actually homeless but just goes to the shelter because he likes free soup.
