Synopsis
Lisa makes a decorative centerpiece for the family's Thanksgiving table. Bart argues with her about where it should be placed. During their struggle, the centerpiece flies into the fireplace and burns up. Sobbing, Lisa runs to her room. Homer and Marge send Bart to his room.
Bart feels his punishment is unfair and runs away from home. Out on the streets, he finds a homeless shelter that is serving Thanksgiving dinner. As it happens, a TV crew is there covering the event, and Bart gets put on the local news.
After seeing Bart on TV, Marge and Homer tell the police that Bart has run away. In the meantime, Bart comes home, but climbs up to the roof to decide whether or not he wants to stay. While he's on the roof, he hears Lisa crying because she misses him. He calls her up to the roof and apologizes. The family reunites and enjoys their Thanksgiving dinner.
