We talked to a family of clams on Thanksgiving — and each one had something very important to share, especially the Grandma

00:00My name is Maurice. I'm a clam.

00:03You know, I don't really know if I have time for this.

00:05I'm very busy today getting ready to host Thanksgiving.

00:09You guys celebrate Thanksgiving?

00:11Of course. We're brainless, not heartless.

00:14I don't know why Maurice is making such a big deal about hosting.

00:17It's not like we can invite any guests over.

00:20We live in a closed ding.

00:23Everyone who will be here has always been here.

00:27Yeah, we're a very closed family.

00:30Physically, like all of us here in this one spot.

00:33Yeah, we're a bit of a rowdy bunch.

00:35It can get loud during the holidays.

00:40Sometimes I wish I was a rock.

00:42What a peaceful life that would be.

00:44It's not so bad in here.

00:46There's always something to look at.

00:48Most of the time it's just water.

00:50But one time I saw the hand.

00:54It was pretty wild.

00:56My mom swears she saw the hand once around the holidays last year.

01:01She has a flair for the dramatics.

01:04I did. I did see the hand.

01:06Who said I didn't see it?

01:08Was it Maurice? I swear I did.

01:10Oh, that? That's my poster of Ming.

01:13He's a legend. He lived to be 507 years old.

01:16Look him up.

01:17Oh, oh, there.

01:19Ah, ah. My snail.

01:21And he's got the zoomies.

01:23Oh, look at him go.

01:27Do you ever think about what's beyond the tank?

01:30Like, what's out there?

01:32Ah, okay. Slow down, Max.

01:34He's making me worry he might knock something down.

01:37You think other clams have their own clamsgiving?

01:40Max, you can slow down now. Please stop.

01:43Well, there we go. We should be safe here.

01:45Anyway, have you met Pee Wee?

01:47He's the life of the party. He's a total chatterbox.

01:52I'm so thankful to be here with you all today.

01:55You're a weird bunch, but you're my weird bunch.

01:58Oh, that's very sweet, Maurice.

02:00Ah, the hand!

02:02You don't see that every day.

02:03Oh, now you believe in the hand.

02:05It's the end of the world.

02:06It's a clamsgiving miracle.

02:10I wonder if Ming ever saw the hand.
