The Group C finale also revealed the true identity of Sherlock Hound.

There was a lot to be thankful for on this week’s Masked Singer episode — not only was it the Group C finale complete with epic performances and a Battle Royale, but the entire Peanuts gang hung around for all of the Thanksgiving festivities as well.

After all, nothing says “Thanksgiving” like A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, which has served up over 50 years of family fun, traditions, and memories. To kick off the episode, the Peanuts characters joined panelists Rita Ora and Robin Thicke on stage as they celebrated turkey day with their falsetto-filled rendition of Daryl Hall and John Oates’ “You Make My Dreams Come True.”

In one of the season’s sweetest moments, the panelists’ families — including Jenny McCarthy-Wahlberg’s husband Donnie, Ora’s husband Taika Waititi, Ken Jeong’s wife Ho and dog Mocha, Thicke’s kids, and some of host Nick Cannon’s brood (after all, we didn’t have all day) — sent in heartwarming and hilarious videos celebrating the holiday and their respective Masked cast member.

The rest of the episode featured the Group C finale, and the celebrities fittingly gave Thanksgiving-themed clues and belted out hits like, “I Hope You Dance” (Strawberry Shortcake), “Holiday” (Royal Knight) and “Ho Hey” (Sherlock Hound).

Since the Ding Dong Keep It On Bell was already used, two people had to go home to make way for one final quarterfinalist, and Royal Knight was the first contestant to get sent home. Guesses for her were a little all over the place — Ora picked Anna Faris, Jeong chose Kelly Ripa, and Thicke guessed Busy Philipps. In the end, McCarthy-Wahlberg earned herself a second Thanksgiving helping, because she correctly pegged that Royal Knight was singer, bestselling author, and One Tree Hill star Jana Kramer (see our interview with her below).

This sent Sherlock Hound and Strawberry Shortcake to the season’s final Battle Royale to each perform their version of “Shivers” by Ed Sheeran. In the end, Sherlock Hound got sent to the pound, and some panelists had even more to be thankful for when it came to their guesses. Although McCarthy-Wahlberg and Ora were incorrect with their guesses of Scott Stapp and Hozier respectively, both Jeong and Thicke correctly picked former professional baseball pitcher and musician Bronson Arroyo.

Thus concluded the Group C finale, which means Strawberry Shortcake is the final quarterfinalist joining Goo, Buffalo, and Wasp in next week’s “Quarterfinals” episode. Ahead of that, Entertainment Weekly caught up with Kramer to digest her Masked Singer experience, dish on how it compared to Dancing With the Stars, and what the latest update is on the One Tree Hill reboot.
