Will's mom, Vy, comes to the Banks household for Thanksgiving. She gets angry that the kids leave all of the work to Geoffrey and criticizes her sister that she wanted Will to be in a safe environment, but not a pampered one.

However, when the kids make multiple errors, Vy laughs maybe that lesson was not ideal.
