Archie Bunker's Place : Thanksgiving Reunion parts 1 & 2 (1979)

Made for CBS, airing November 17th & November 18th in the US.
Season 1. Episodes 10 & 11.
The story: This year Archie is planning a nice, quiet dinner with just Edith and Stephanie.
He has no idea that Gloria, Michael, and little Joey are coming for dinner.
Or that Michael has lost his job due to picketing naked and getting arrested for it.
Very excited to see them when they all arrive, it's quite a pleasant surprise for Archie.
Archie assumes Michael is doing great at work in California.
Right as dinner is just about to begin, Archie says something that triggers the idea of Michael losing his job.
Now the truth comes out.
Archie wants to know the real whole truth but no one will tell him.
He won't let anyone eat until they tell him the full truth.
Archie is quite shocked when Michael finally explains everything.
This has topped them all in Archie's book.
