'A T' (gnus-summary-refer-thread) should do the trick.

'C-h f gnus-summary-refer-thread RET' for more info.

However, on an IMAP server it only works when the server uses the
agent (I just tried).

Also it didn't work on a message that didn't have a proper References
header (sent by Lookout using an MSExchange server).  Nothing
happened, presumably because dovecot didn't recognize the message as
belonging to a thread...?
