This Thanksgiving is a disaster. The family gathers again after a long time to celebrate Thanksgiving together. They doesn't live in America, but in the Czechia, but they are US patriots, they love America. Michael and Anna and Anna's parents Joseph and Sandra prepare everything. Their son Jacob and his wife just arrived. Just daughter Tereza is on way, who will arrive with a fiance whom they have never met. The problem is, this family loves USA, sports, they have guns in the house, and as Jacob says, he's a God-worshipping, family-loving, flag-waving, Elvis-singing, conservative patriot and gentleman, and so is the whole family, but Nicholas doesn't like America, guns or sport, he's more for Russian, he prefers European, especially Czech movies, prefers to read rather than watch sports, he reads mainly Russian or Czech books, and he doesn't believe in God. Jacob is told to be good and tolerate him because Teresa cares about him, but her fiance crosses the line several times. This day is a disaster. Nicholas despises a lot of the family does and believes in, like USA, God, and doesn't act like a gentleman, Jacob, Mike and Joe have had enough of him. As they began to eat, Lucy said that she thank God for such good food, Nicholas responded by mocking her and God. Jacob got angry and above all mocked him, yelled. They started fight. JImmy Knocked him out then took rifle, said him never to come back. Nicholas cried and told Tereza It's over. She yelled This Is America you Btch.
