Caitlin is aghast to learn that her mom has also invited the Brewsters from next door, and Podge, the worst boy in the world is coming for Thanksgiving dinner.

But Rio is in danger. The wild turkeys warning comes true! Caitlin learns that the flock always repay their debts... even if it means taking on the most evil, criminal mastermind - MacDougal himself. ...
