The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
written by B. Traven

Nicky's stash situation gets complicated. Alex and Crazy Eyes try a new drama class. Red assists Healy with a personal matter.

It wouldn't be Thanksgiving on the Upper East Side if there wasn't a serving or two of some major drama for the holiday. Blair suspects her mom has been keeping a big secret from her, but it turns out to be something else entirely. Vanessa is supposed to spend Thanksgiving with her parents, but has a fight with her mom and shows up on Dan's doorstep. Rufus learns that Lily has been lying to him about her mother, Cece. Chuck tells Nate that he has some potentially damaging information about one of their friends. Jenny learns that Eric was behind her very public embarrassment at Cotillion and can't pass up a chance to get even. Serena is put in a very awkward position when her mother invites Tripp and Maureen to join them for Thanksgiving dinner. Title comes from the 1927 novel The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre is John Huston's 1948 feature film adaptation of B. Traven's 1927 novel of the same name, in which two American down-and-outers in 1920s Mexico hook up with an old-timer to prospect for gold. The old-timer accurately predicts trouble, but is willing to go anyway.
