When Eddie calls his sister, Julie, she says: 'No way are they getting divorced, I will go over and see them for Thanksgiving.' Julie phones her father and tells him 'You must NOT get divorced. Promise you won't do anything until I get over there. I'm calling Eddie, and we'll both be there with you tomorrow. Until then, don't take any action, please listen to me'. She then hangs up. The father puts down the phone and turns to his wife. 'Good news' he says, 'Eddie and Julie are coming for Thanksgiving and they are both paying their own way.'
