"I mean, when you put it like that, it's a pretty great Thanksgiving to have as your first memory, right?" she asks, looking around. It's true that she does't know everyone here, she's not sure she even knows all their names, but they're all important to Derek and that makes sense. It also makes her happy, seeing that he's got so many people around him who care, and she's totally going to use this as evidence of all the people who love him the next time he gets down on himself.
It's entirely possible she's not the most compassionate person, instead preferring to shake people until they admit they're loved.
"No one's fighting, no one's punching the food or throwing it at the walls. I don't think anyone is drunk enough to start puking everywhere," she says. "That's my experience with most family holidays, so you're really getting off light here. I feel like I should purposely cause some drama just to make it more American holiday appropriate for you."
