What did you like about this script? The writer offers a unique and quirky‚ character-driven script‚ which has the potential to be wildly unpredictable with a mild bit of slapstick humor that I enjoyed. Though Pamela seemed to take the front seat in the narrative‚ I found that her daughter Syd’s character seemed to be the most agreeable. Her character felt as if she were the physical embodiment of the audience being forced to spend Thanksgiving with their family as all of their foolery behavior
