It's...

00:02:16,832 --> 00:02:18,486

00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:22,664
[Mitzy] You haven't even
been outside yet, have you?

Build a snowman?

53
00:02:30,454 --> 00:02:32,543
I just, I hate to think of you

54
00:02:32,630 --> 00:02:34,284
squirreling yourself
away like this.

55
00:02:34,371 --> 00:02:36,068
I'm not squirreling away, Mom.

56
00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:38,810
I've got deadlines.

57
00:02:38,897 --> 00:02:40,072
[Mitzy] Well you've
been working non-stop

58
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,162
for the past few years.

59
00:02:42,336 --> 00:02:45,426
And as much as I love bragging
about my son at the Club,

60
00:02:45,513 --> 00:02:47,776
the closest I've come
to seeing you lately

61
00:02:47,906 --> 00:02:51,519
is your name on the
Times' Best Seller list!

62
00:02:51,649 --> 00:02:54,826
Yeah, well, call it
the price of success.

63
00:02:54,957 --> 00:02:56,959
Reconsider coming back to
the city for Christmas.

64
00:02:57,089 --> 00:02:59,396
For a visit.

65
00:02:59,527 --> 00:03:01,964
No. I don't think...
I, ah...

66
00:03:02,051 --> 00:03:03,618
[Mitzy] How am supposed
to know you're okay?

67
00:03:05,228 --> 00:03:06,795
I'm fine.

68
00:03:06,925 --> 00:03:08,623
You don't have to
worry about me.

69
00:03:08,710 --> 00:03:10,842
I know this is a difficult
time of year for you

70
00:03:10,929 --> 00:03:15,238
without Sally Anne but she
would want you to be happy.

71
00:03:15,456 --> 00:03:16,631
The accident...

72
00:03:16,805 --> 00:03:19,329
Okay okay. All right.
I love you, Mom.

73
00:03:19,503 --> 00:03:21,984
And I love you too, darling.

74
00:03:22,114 --> 00:03:24,595
But I do wish you would
let people into your life.

75
00:03:24,726 --> 00:03:26,249
See you Christmas morning.

76
00:03:26,336 --> 00:03:27,337
No, you...

77
00:03:31,428 --> 00:03:32,908
[Eva]
I only have about a minute

78
00:03:33,038 --> 00:03:35,215
before I'm supposed to
pick up Peanut for Mitzy.

79
00:03:35,302 --> 00:03:37,565
Eva, we've finally gotten
big enough to hire people

80
00:03:37,695 --> 00:03:39,567
to help deliver wishes.

81
00:03:39,697 --> 00:03:41,786
Now we don't have to
do it all ourselves.

82
00:03:42,004 --> 00:03:44,049
I know but she was my
very first client,

83
00:03:44,224 --> 00:03:45,921
and she's become a friend.

84
00:03:46,008 --> 00:03:48,097
Well, more than a
friend actually.

85
00:03:48,228 --> 00:03:50,012
She's like a mentor to me.

86
00:03:50,186 --> 00:03:52,362
Besides, I like seeing the
look on someone's face

87
00:03:52,449 --> 00:03:54,016
when their wish
is fulfilled.

88
00:03:54,103 --> 00:03:55,887
Yeah, well, one of these
days you're going to have to

89
00:03:56,018 --> 00:03:58,368
slow down and fulfill
some of your own wishes.

90
00:03:58,499 --> 00:04:00,501
What? We're finally
getting some traction.

91
00:04:00,631 --> 00:04:01,893
Now is not the
time to slow down.

92
00:04:02,024 --> 00:04:04,418
I mean listening to
your own heart wishes.

93
00:04:04,505 --> 00:04:05,549
What happened with the Banker?

94
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,290
Augh!

95
00:04:07,377 --> 00:04:08,813
It's over.

96
00:04:08,944 --> 00:04:10,511
He never called.

97
00:04:10,598 --> 00:04:12,469
Or returned any of
my calls, actually.

98
00:04:12,643 --> 00:04:14,950
Man, you're the
sweetest person I know.

99
00:04:15,124 --> 00:04:16,081
I don't get it.

100
00:04:16,212 --> 00:04:17,518
He wasn't the one.

101
00:04:17,648 --> 00:04:19,520
And you know,
it's for the best.

102
00:04:19,607 --> 00:04:21,130
This holiday is going
to keep me busy enough.

103
00:04:21,217 --> 00:04:23,045
Eva...

104
00:04:23,219 --> 00:04:26,048
[Harriet] Eva, Peanut is
ready for the holidays!

105
00:04:26,135 --> 00:04:27,789
Oh thank you Harriet.

106
00:04:27,963 --> 00:04:31,271
Hello! Don't you
look so festive.

107
00:04:32,837 --> 00:04:33,795
It's okay.

108
00:04:33,882 --> 00:04:35,405
Christmas is our peak season.

109
00:04:35,536 --> 00:04:37,233
Yeah, well, that's the catch.

110
00:04:37,364 --> 00:04:39,801
We have a great business now
but can't take time off.

111
00:04:39,888 --> 00:04:42,107
Especially over the holidays.

112
00:04:42,282 --> 00:04:46,547
And whose idea was it to do all
of those Christmas promotions?

113
00:04:46,634 --> 00:04:48,984
If I could deliver
you a Christmas wish,

114
00:04:49,114 --> 00:04:51,203
it would be romance.

115
00:04:51,378 --> 00:04:54,163
Hey, maybe one of our clients
can introduce you to someone.

116
00:04:54,250 --> 00:04:55,773
Sure, Paige.

117
00:04:56,078 --> 00:04:58,036
Except none of our clients
have any time for matchmaking.

118
00:04:58,210 --> 00:04:59,734
That's why they hire us!

119
00:05:05,261 --> 00:05:06,741
[Eva] Merry Christmas!

120
00:05:06,915 --> 00:05:07,742
[Mitzy] Eva!

121
00:05:09,004 --> 00:05:10,310
How goes the Christmas rush?

122
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,094
Hi Mitzy!

123
00:05:12,268 --> 00:05:14,270
I have someone who is
very excited to see you.

124
00:05:14,444 --> 00:05:16,228
Oh, look at this little boy!

125
00:05:16,359 --> 00:05:18,013
Oh, come here.

126
00:05:18,143 --> 00:05:19,580
And...

127
00:05:19,667 --> 00:05:21,408
I got you an early
Christmas present.

128
00:05:22,670 --> 00:05:24,715
Oh! How thoughtful.

129
00:05:24,846 --> 00:05:26,848
You always go above and beyond!

130
00:05:26,978 --> 00:05:28,676
Oh it's easy.

131
00:05:28,806 --> 00:05:30,417
When you love your job.

132
00:05:32,375 --> 00:05:34,029
So tell me,

133
00:05:34,159 --> 00:05:38,163
did Santa have a nice looking
young elf helping you?

134
00:05:38,250 --> 00:05:41,036
No, Santa was working alone.

135
00:05:41,123 --> 00:05:42,167
Oh....

136
00:05:42,298 --> 00:05:44,822
Why? Are you interested?

137
00:05:44,953 --> 00:05:46,084
I can go get his
number for you.

138
00:05:46,171 --> 00:05:48,696
Oh! No no no!

139
00:05:50,045 --> 00:05:53,178
Listen, I know it's
close to the holidays

140
00:05:53,309 --> 00:05:55,746
and you're already very
busy, but I was wondering

141
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,793
if you had time for
another Genie request?

142
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,272
I could use your help.

143
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,927
For you? Of course.

144
00:06:03,014 --> 00:06:06,322
I was just on the
phone with my Lucas.

145
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:10,979
He's up in the foothills
of Vermont until Christmas.

146
00:06:11,153 --> 00:06:12,894
That sounds lovely.

147
00:06:13,068 --> 00:06:19,030
Yes, but he's had a bit of a
rough patch the last few years.

148
00:06:19,117 --> 00:06:21,816
I want to do something special
for him this Christmas.

149
00:06:21,903 --> 00:06:23,513
Well I would love to help.

150
00:06:23,687 --> 00:06:25,341
What do you have in mind?

151
00:06:27,996 --> 00:06:29,301
A penthouse?

152
00:06:29,693 --> 00:06:32,740
Not just any penthouse, a
penthouse on Fifth Avenue!

153
00:06:32,914 --> 00:06:35,395
I'm being paid to stay
on the Upper East Side.

154
00:06:35,482 --> 00:06:38,006
Well, Merry Christmas to you!

155
00:06:38,136 --> 00:06:41,183
It might make things a little
more hectic around here.

156
00:06:41,357 --> 00:06:44,012
Mitzy wants me to decorate
the apartment, house-sit

157
00:06:44,099 --> 00:06:46,754
and cook meals to freeze
for when he returns.

158
00:06:46,884 --> 00:06:49,104
Wait, what do you mean, 'he'?

159
00:06:49,234 --> 00:06:50,714
It's her son's home.

160
00:06:50,758 --> 00:06:53,848
-Umm... Lucas Blade.
-No!

161
00:06:53,891 --> 00:06:56,111
Yeah, he's out of
town until Christmas.

162
00:06:56,328 --> 00:06:58,548
Okay. How are you
so calm about this?

163
00:06:58,635 --> 00:07:01,943
Does the last name 'Blade'
not ring any bells for you?

164
00:07:02,030 --> 00:07:03,423
Lucas Blade!

165
00:07:03,553 --> 00:07:05,729
Oh cool.

166
00:07:05,860 --> 00:07:07,818
You still don't know, do you?

167
00:07:07,992 --> 00:07:09,298
Not a clue.

168
00:07:09,341 --> 00:07:11,343
The world-famous crime author!

169
00:07:11,518 --> 00:07:13,258
I don't read that stuff.

170
00:07:13,345 --> 00:07:14,564
I prefer to sleep at night.

171
00:07:14,782 --> 00:07:16,305
Yeah, well, you're the only one.

172
00:07:16,436 --> 00:07:18,089
On the planet.

173
00:07:18,176 --> 00:07:20,178
Hey, are you sure you're
okay with taking this on?

174
00:07:20,309 --> 00:07:22,529
I mean, we're already
running off our feet.

175
00:07:22,616 --> 00:07:24,182
I'll make it work.

176
00:07:24,356 --> 00:07:26,620
At least if I'm staying
on Fifth Avenue,

177
00:07:26,707 --> 00:07:28,360
it'll feel like
I'm on vacation.

178
00:07:28,448 --> 00:07:30,362
Wait. If you're not
staying at your apartment

179
00:07:30,450 --> 00:07:31,842
we should sublet it!

180
00:07:32,016 --> 00:07:33,322
I mean, we have a
wait list of requests

181
00:07:33,409 --> 00:07:34,715
looking for furnished rentals.

182
00:07:34,802 --> 00:07:36,064
Yeah, all right, sure,
if it helps someone out.

183
00:07:36,281 --> 00:07:38,022
Okay! Go home and pack.

184
00:07:38,196 --> 00:07:40,677
-Are you sure.
-Yes, I'm sure.

185
00:07:41,809 --> 00:07:43,463
My penthouse awaits!

186
00:08:05,746 --> 00:08:07,617
[Sales Clerk]
Could you step back?

187
00:08:07,791 --> 00:08:09,750
You're fogging up the glass.

188
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,491
Oh!

189
00:08:23,415 --> 00:08:32,163
[phone ringing]

190
00:08:40,432 --> 00:08:42,173
Jason!

191
00:08:42,304 --> 00:08:45,916
Hey! Lucas my man!

192
00:08:46,003 --> 00:08:47,788
I was starting to think you'd
been buried under a snowdrift.

193
00:08:47,875 --> 00:08:51,661
Ha! Nope. Not yet.

194
00:08:51,748 --> 00:08:54,621
Hey New York misses you, baaabe!
When are you back?

195
00:08:54,795 --> 00:08:57,058
Well, not until I
finish this book.

196
00:08:57,232 --> 00:08:59,190
Well that is what
I like to hear!

197
00:08:59,364 --> 00:09:01,236
Now listen, sales and marketing
have been hounding me

198
00:09:01,323 --> 00:09:02,977
for anything.

199
00:09:03,107 --> 00:09:04,500
Can you send me some pages?

200
00:09:04,674 --> 00:09:06,763
Any clues about the story?

201
00:09:06,894 --> 00:09:09,374
Yeah, I would love to
help you, but, ah,

202
00:09:09,505 --> 00:09:12,813
I don't think tossing
crumbs would be the way

203
00:09:12,987 --> 00:09:14,641
to go with this story.

204
00:09:14,771 --> 00:09:18,514
You know, I think this book
is really meant to be, um,

205
00:09:18,645 --> 00:09:20,864
enjoyed as a whole.

206
00:09:21,038 --> 00:09:23,388
Your fans are excited
about this one, Lucas.

207
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:25,695
[Lucas]
Yeah. I am too.

208
00:09:25,913 --> 00:09:27,871
All right buddy boy binda bing
binda bang, boom, back to work.

209
00:09:28,002 --> 00:09:29,394
No rest for the wicked.

210
00:09:29,612 --> 00:09:31,266
And send me those pages A-Sap.

211
00:09:31,483 --> 00:09:34,530
Yup. Soon as it's done.

212
00:09:34,704 --> 00:09:36,097
As soon as it's ready.

213
00:09:36,271 --> 00:09:38,578
[chanting]
Lu-Cas, Lu-Cas, Lu-Cas!

214
00:10:30,630 --> 00:10:33,154
-Welcome!
-Thank you!

215
00:10:33,328 --> 00:10:35,156
Good afternoon!

216
00:10:37,158 --> 00:10:39,160
I'll say!

217
00:10:42,293 --> 00:10:45,862
This lobby is bigger
than my whole apartment.

218
00:10:47,472 --> 00:10:49,126
May I help you, Miss?

219
00:10:49,213 --> 00:10:51,476
Oh, no need for 'Miss.'
I'm Eva.

220
00:10:51,651 --> 00:10:53,348
I'll be staying in
Mr Blade's penthouse.

221
00:10:53,435 --> 00:10:56,917
Ah, yes of course!
Mitzy told me.

222
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,571
-Welcome to New York!
-And you are?

223
00:10:59,702 --> 00:11:02,400
Ah... Charlie.

224
00:11:02,574 --> 00:11:03,793
Charlie McDean.

225
00:11:03,967 --> 00:11:05,882
It's great to meet you, Charlie.

226
00:11:06,056 --> 00:11:08,058
We'll be seeing a lot of each
other over the next little bit.

227
00:11:08,232 --> 00:11:10,539
And how long are
you in New York for?

228
00:11:10,626 --> 00:11:15,326
Well, I actually moved here
last year, well, to Brooklyn.

229
00:11:15,413 --> 00:11:17,589
Brooklyn is New York.

230
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,898
Yeah, but it sure feels
a world away from here.

231
00:11:21,985 --> 00:11:24,814
Ooh, you're going
to love it on Fifth.

232
00:11:28,513 --> 00:11:29,993
Let me know if there
is anything I can do

233
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,213
to improve your stay.

234
00:11:32,343 --> 00:11:35,042
Actually, I have a
Christmas tree arriving

235
00:11:35,172 --> 00:11:37,000
first thing in
the morning.

236
00:11:37,087 --> 00:11:38,741
Could you give me a
call when it gets here?

237
00:11:38,915 --> 00:11:40,221
Absolutely.

238
00:11:43,485 --> 00:11:45,226
Good. This way.

239
00:12:15,430 --> 00:12:17,780
Wow.

240
00:12:35,189 --> 00:12:37,104
No wonder your mother
thinks you need my help.

241
00:12:52,249 --> 00:12:54,774
Who's interested in this stuff?

242
00:12:56,732 --> 00:12:59,387
Oh. Maybe I'm interested.

243
00:13:00,910 --> 00:13:02,738
Hello Lucas Blade.

244
00:13:09,049 --> 00:13:11,442
[footsteps and a bang]

245
00:13:23,933 --> 00:13:24,804
[bang]
Oww!

246
00:13:24,891 --> 00:13:25,935
[scream]

247
00:13:28,546 --> 00:13:30,026
[Lucas]
I'm calling the police!

248
00:13:30,157 --> 00:13:31,375
[Eva]
I'm calling the police!

249
00:13:31,462 --> 00:13:33,029
[Lucas] You can't call the
police on someone

250
00:13:33,116 --> 00:13:34,814
for being in their own home.

251
00:13:37,947 --> 00:13:40,471
Really?
A candy cane?

252
00:13:40,689 --> 00:13:44,214
Someone with my skills can
turn anything into a weapon.

253
00:13:46,651 --> 00:13:48,479
Wait. You're Lucas Blade.

254
00:13:48,566 --> 00:13:49,829
Yeah. And you're going to jail.

255
00:13:49,959 --> 00:13:51,787
What? Do I look like a thief?

256
00:13:51,918 --> 00:13:53,833
I'm here to house-sit!

257
00:13:53,876 --> 00:13:56,313
Look, if I was a thief why would
I threaten to call the police?

258
00:13:56,487 --> 00:13:57,924
Because it's the perfect cover.

259
00:13:58,054 --> 00:13:59,403
Once you realize
someone was in here,

260
00:13:59,577 --> 00:14:00,883
it's the best way
to appear innocent.

261
00:14:01,057 --> 00:14:02,537
I am innocent!

262
00:14:02,624 --> 00:14:06,889
Look! Mitzy gave me keys.
Hmmm!

263
00:14:07,063 --> 00:14:09,631
Look, we can easily solve this.
Just call your mother.

264
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:11,502
She'll explain everything.

265
00:14:13,461 --> 00:14:14,810
Fine! I will!

266
00:14:14,984 --> 00:14:16,159
No no no no! No don't!

267
00:14:18,945 --> 00:14:21,121
[big sigh]

268
00:14:21,208 --> 00:14:23,514
Mitzy put you up to this?

269
00:14:23,645 --> 00:14:27,605
Yes. She's hired me to
decorate for Christmas.

270
00:14:27,779 --> 00:14:29,694
I'm from an events
concierge company.

271
00:14:29,825 --> 00:14:31,305
Okay.

272
00:14:31,522 --> 00:14:33,655
Well then just give me
your boss' name and number

273
00:14:33,785 --> 00:14:36,310
and I will call them and say
I don't need your services.

274
00:14:36,484 --> 00:14:38,399
I am the boss.

275
00:14:38,486 --> 00:14:39,661
Maybe you should call your
mother and explain to her

276
00:14:39,879 --> 00:14:42,229
why you're here in New York
City and not in Vermont.

277
00:14:43,012 --> 00:14:44,231
Okay. You know what?

278
00:14:44,448 --> 00:14:47,712
There's obviously been
a huge miscommunication.

279
00:14:47,799 --> 00:14:50,280
Just, please, leave.
Okay?

280
00:14:54,937 --> 00:14:57,679
Mitzy's paying me to cook and

281
00:14:57,897 --> 00:15:00,508
get this apartment dressed
in it's Christmas best.

282
00:15:00,682 --> 00:15:03,206
What are you? Some kind
of Christmas Elf?

283
00:15:04,077 --> 00:15:05,643
[Eva]
Christmas Concierge.

284
00:15:05,817 --> 00:15:07,123
Yeah, hired to decorate

285
00:15:07,254 --> 00:15:09,778
and attack unsuspecting
individuals?

286
00:15:09,821 --> 00:15:12,650
Well, actually a lot of people

287
00:15:12,737 --> 00:15:15,610
avail themselves of my
help this time of year.

288
00:15:15,697 --> 00:15:20,267
You know, between decorating
and shopping for presents...

289
00:15:21,790 --> 00:15:24,793
Well, I don't need my
place to be decorated.

290
00:15:25,707 --> 00:15:27,796
Look, I don't know why
you're not in Vermont,

291
00:15:27,970 --> 00:15:29,929
and that's none
of my business.

292
00:15:30,146 --> 00:15:33,367
My business is doing the job
your mother's hired me to do.

293
00:15:33,497 --> 00:15:35,630
I can't leave unless
she tells me to.

294
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,547
So I will decorate for
Christmas, fill your freezer,

295
00:15:39,634 --> 00:15:43,290
and then I'll go.

296
00:15:43,464 --> 00:15:44,769
I'm sure we can
reach a compromise

297
00:15:44,900 --> 00:15:47,294
we can both live with.

298
00:15:47,424 --> 00:15:49,209
[scoffs]
Now you're blackmailing me?

299
00:15:49,339 --> 00:15:50,993
What are you?
Some kind of super fan?

300
00:15:52,299 --> 00:15:54,301
No.

301
00:15:55,432 --> 00:15:57,695
I don't read books
with scary covers.

302
00:16:00,524 --> 00:16:02,526
Look, I don't have
anywhere to go.

303
00:16:02,613 --> 00:16:04,702
I've already rented
out my apartment.

304
00:16:04,876 --> 00:16:06,487
You don't have a
boyfriend or some family

305
00:16:06,661 --> 00:16:08,271
or someone else
you could bother?

306
00:16:08,358 --> 00:16:10,186
Well my family lives in
Wisconsin, and well,

307
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:11,971
Paige's in-laws are
in the city so...

308
00:16:12,058 --> 00:16:13,233
Let me just stop
you right there.

309
00:16:13,363 --> 00:16:14,190
I don't need to hear
about Paige's in-laws!

310
00:16:14,321 --> 00:16:15,670
Please let me stay.

311
00:16:15,887 --> 00:16:18,238
Look, I will barely be
here during the day,

312
00:16:18,325 --> 00:16:19,891
and when I am here,

313
00:16:20,066 --> 00:16:22,024
the worst thing I'll
do is offer you dinner.

314
00:16:27,682 --> 00:16:29,379
[big sigh]
Okay.

315
00:16:29,597 --> 00:16:32,165
The spare room, up the
stairs to the right.

316
00:16:32,382 --> 00:16:34,645
Do what you do.

317
00:16:34,776 --> 00:16:36,430
Just don't bother me.

318
00:16:56,102 --> 00:16:59,496
Whooo...
That is a lot of coffee.

319
00:17:17,775 --> 00:17:19,299
Probably shouldn't
recycle an invitation

320
00:17:19,473 --> 00:17:21,953
to the Snowflake Ball.

321
00:17:22,084 --> 00:17:24,217
You never know
who might find it.

322
00:18:06,694 --> 00:18:09,653
[phone rings]

323
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:12,613
[whispers]
Hi Dad!

324
00:18:12,700 --> 00:18:14,397
Hey Sweetie!

325
00:18:14,484 --> 00:18:16,834
[quietly]
You're decorating your tree.

326
00:18:17,052 --> 00:18:18,793
Did you get it from John
Thompson's farm again?

327
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,229
Of course.

328
00:18:20,708 --> 00:18:25,060
And we've got your little
sock to put right at the top.

329
00:18:25,234 --> 00:18:27,106
[Eva whispering] I wish I was
there with you guys.

330
00:18:27,236 --> 00:18:29,673
Why are you whispering?

331
00:18:29,847 --> 00:18:34,722
I'm house sitting for work, but
there's been a bit of a mix-up

332
00:18:34,852 --> 00:18:39,030
and the owner is here, and he's
not pleased about me staying.

333
00:18:39,161 --> 00:18:41,468
You're staying with someone
that you've never met before?

334
00:18:41,555 --> 00:18:43,252
I don't like the
sound of that, Eva.

335
00:18:43,426 --> 00:18:45,515
[Eva]
Mom, it's okay.

336
00:18:45,602 --> 00:18:48,301
He has zero interest
in me being here.

337
00:18:48,475 --> 00:18:52,696
I'm rooming with Scrooge.

338
00:18:52,783 --> 00:18:58,659
But, not mean Scrooge.
Just sad, alone Scrooge.

339
00:18:58,789 --> 00:19:00,748
Do you want me to talk to him?
I'll talk to him.

340
00:19:00,922 --> 00:19:04,055
[Eva] No Dad. I can
take care of myself.

341
00:19:04,143 --> 00:19:06,580
No, he's fine, I promise.

342
00:19:06,754 --> 00:19:08,277
He's the son of one of
my favorite clients.

343
00:19:08,408 --> 00:19:11,889
He just needs a
little cheering up.

344
00:19:11,976 --> 00:19:14,675
So, when are you guys coming?
Have you book your flights?

345
00:19:16,677 --> 00:19:19,723
Sweetheart, we're sorry.

346
00:19:19,854 --> 00:19:21,421
It breaks our hearts

347
00:19:21,595 --> 00:19:23,945
but we just can't afford
the trip this year.

348
00:19:24,075 --> 00:19:27,644
But we've got

349
00:19:27,818 --> 00:19:30,386
your presents all wrapped
and we're taking them

350
00:19:30,517 --> 00:19:32,562
to the post office today.

351
00:19:32,736 --> 00:19:35,174
I'll miss you.

about getting engaged

I'm staying with.

was out of town.

00:27:46,882 --> 00:27:48,667
Is he as smoking
hot in real life

525
00:27:48,797 --> 00:27:50,712
as he is on his
book covers?

526
00:27:50,799 --> 00:27:52,888
He's handsome...

527
00:27:53,019 --> 00:27:55,238
He's obviously a
brilliant writer,

528
00:27:55,369 --> 00:27:58,415
but his social skills
could really use an edit.

529
00:27:58,502 --> 00:28:00,374
You've been employed to
fix up his apartment,

530
00:28:00,504 --> 00:28:02,419
not fix his personality.

531
00:28:02,506 --> 00:28:06,902
No, I've heard of authors being
moody and socially awkward,

532
00:28:06,989 --> 00:28:10,253
but he's just, he
just so shut off.

533
00:28:10,427 --> 00:28:13,082
Didn't his wife pass
away around Christmas?

534
00:28:14,736 --> 00:28:16,999
She died?

535
00:28:19,959 --> 00:28:22,483
No wonder this is a difficult
time of year for him.

536
00:28:43,983 --> 00:28:45,724
[knock at door]

537
00:28:56,256 --> 00:28:58,693
I made chicken pot pie.

538
00:28:58,780 --> 00:29:01,130
I thought you might like
one before I freeze it.

539
00:29:01,261 --> 00:29:04,525
I haven't had pot pie
since I was twelve.

540
00:29:04,699 --> 00:29:07,049
Well, when you try this one,
you'll be wondering why.

541
00:29:07,180 --> 00:29:09,530
It's the ultimate comfort food.

542
00:29:09,617 --> 00:29:11,445
And that's tea.

543
00:29:11,619 --> 00:29:13,664
Not Christmas
spiced or anything,

544
00:29:13,752 --> 00:29:15,884
just straight, herbal tea.

545
00:29:16,102 --> 00:29:18,539
-Well I drink coffee.
-So I've seen.

546
00:29:18,669 --> 00:29:22,282
But tea is calming.
So, better for sleep.

547
00:29:22,369 --> 00:29:24,240
Thank you.
Sleep's overrated.

548
00:29:24,327 --> 00:29:26,025
You have to eat something.

549
00:29:26,112 --> 00:29:29,550
This might help with
those creative juices.

550
00:29:29,637 --> 00:29:34,250
And coffee is not in any of
the suggested food groups.

551
00:29:35,034 --> 00:29:36,383
Please let me
put this down.

552
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,907
It's getting heavy.

553
00:29:39,995 --> 00:29:42,041
[big sigh]

554
00:29:42,258 --> 00:29:43,651
Please.

555
00:29:44,739 --> 00:29:46,088
I was thinking of
going for a walk later.

556
00:29:46,262 --> 00:29:47,655
Maybe you'd like to join?

557
00:29:47,786 --> 00:29:49,657
I have work to do.

558
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:52,181
Okay. Well, maybe tomorrow.

559
00:29:53,704 --> 00:29:58,100
It must be difficult crafting
such dark and twisted stories.

560
00:29:58,318 --> 00:30:01,277
No. Actually, human nature
is dark and twisted.

561
00:30:01,451 --> 00:30:03,627
You should read a newspaper.

562
00:30:03,758 --> 00:30:07,283
Well, the news only shows
the dark side of life.

563
00:30:07,370 --> 00:30:10,156
You know, it doesn't talk
about the millions of

564
00:30:10,243 --> 00:30:12,898
unreported acts of kindness that
take place on a daily basis.

565
00:30:12,985 --> 00:30:14,638
Like Urban Genie.

566
00:30:14,813 --> 00:30:16,553
We'll do anything to help.

567
00:30:16,727 --> 00:30:18,642
For a price.

568
00:30:18,773 --> 00:30:20,819
I mean, you're not doing it out
of the kindness of your heart.

569
00:30:20,906 --> 00:30:22,995
Yes I do.

570
00:30:23,125 --> 00:30:24,648
Always out of the
kindness of my heart.

571
00:30:24,735 --> 00:30:26,302
Otherwise what's the point?

572
00:30:26,433 --> 00:30:29,566
You charge for your kindness.

573
00:30:29,653 --> 00:30:31,655
Well, I wish I could
afford not to,

574
00:30:31,742 --> 00:30:34,876
but I still have to feed myself
and scrape together rent.

575
00:30:35,007 --> 00:30:37,400
Right. So that's
ulterior motive.

576
00:30:37,574 --> 00:30:40,403
Life is not a crime
novel, Mr Blade!

577
00:30:40,577 --> 00:30:42,841
Well, if you're looking
for a happy ending,

578
00:30:42,928 --> 00:30:45,191
it's not going
to be here.

579
00:30:45,278 --> 00:30:47,541
Well, but maybe you could find
something if you ever actually

580
00:30:47,671 --> 00:30:49,369
left this apartment.

581
00:30:49,456 --> 00:30:50,979
You know, the Christmas lights
in the park look amazing

582
00:30:51,153 --> 00:30:53,329
this time of year.

583
00:30:54,287 --> 00:30:55,505
[scoffs]

584
00:30:55,723 --> 00:30:58,117
Did my mother put
you up to this?

585
00:30:58,247 --> 00:31:00,119
Come in here and cheerfully

586
00:31:00,249 --> 00:31:02,948
annoy me until I
stop being grouchy?

587
00:31:03,035 --> 00:31:05,124
Well, grouchy is
as grouchy does.

588
00:31:05,211 --> 00:31:07,300
Eva, I'm happy alone.
I don't need your help.

589
00:31:07,474 --> 00:31:10,303
Your mother is
worried about you,

590
00:31:10,433 --> 00:31:13,697
and after meeting you and
understanding you more, so am I.

591
00:31:13,784 --> 00:31:15,917
Right.

592
00:31:16,091 --> 00:31:21,488
Well writing is a solo venture
and carries huge expectations.

593
00:31:21,575 --> 00:31:24,404
It demands determination,
focus and commitment.

594
00:31:24,534 --> 00:31:25,840
But how can you write about life

595
00:31:26,014 --> 00:31:27,189
if you're not
actually living it?

596
00:31:27,276 --> 00:31:29,713
Do you hear yourself?

597
00:31:29,888 --> 00:31:31,977
Have you ever stop to think
that you have unrealistic

598
00:31:32,064 --> 00:31:34,501
and perky views on life?

599
00:31:39,462 --> 00:31:44,641
You know, you might
be a good writer,

600
00:31:44,728 --> 00:31:47,731
but you are a terrible
judge of character.

601
00:31:47,818 --> 00:31:48,863
Okay.

602
00:31:58,046 --> 00:32:00,048
Eva! Can I call you a cab?

603
00:32:00,222 --> 00:32:01,745
No thank you.
I'm going for a walk.

604
00:32:01,876 --> 00:32:04,661
I really can't recommend that.

605
00:32:04,705 --> 00:32:07,403
Going out without a hat and a
scarf on a night like this.

606
00:32:09,928 --> 00:32:12,365
This is never going to work!

607
00:32:14,541 --> 00:32:17,587
How is it possible
to feel so alone

608
00:32:17,805 --> 00:32:19,415
in a city with
millions of people?

609
00:32:19,546 --> 00:32:23,071
You're never alone in New York.

610
00:32:23,158 --> 00:32:26,074
Well I will be on Christmas Day.

611
00:32:28,555 --> 00:32:30,644
Why don't you come
and spend it with me?

612
00:32:30,774 --> 00:32:32,428
Here.

613
00:32:32,602 --> 00:32:34,778
You're working on Christmas Day?

614
00:32:34,953 --> 00:32:36,998
Yes.

615
00:32:37,172 --> 00:32:39,653
The other doormen
all have families.

616
00:32:39,696 --> 00:32:41,133
I take a little
time for myself,

617
00:32:41,307 --> 00:32:42,961
and then I come back here.

618
00:32:43,135 --> 00:32:49,141
I would usually have my dog
Luna to pass the morning with,

619
00:32:49,228 --> 00:32:51,186
but she passed
away this summer.

620
00:32:51,273 --> 00:32:53,101
Oh, I'm so sorry.

621
00:32:53,275 --> 00:32:54,842
You must miss her.

622
00:32:55,016 --> 00:32:57,845
I do.

623
00:32:58,019 --> 00:33:00,935
But I have a little reminder.

624
00:33:10,684 --> 00:33:13,295
[Charlie] It's not so bad
working here at Christmas.

625
00:33:13,469 --> 00:33:15,906
I mean, how lucky am I

626
00:33:16,037 --> 00:33:19,258
helping to make people's
day a little brighter.

627
00:33:21,782 --> 00:33:24,915
Would you like to have
breakfast together on Christmas?

628
00:33:25,046 --> 00:33:28,136
Oh, that would be wonderful!

629
00:33:28,223 --> 00:33:30,269
There must be other people too.

630
00:33:30,356 --> 00:33:32,967
I mean, I could organize
something, a brunch,

631
00:33:33,098 --> 00:33:35,100
for anyone who'd rather
not be alone on Christmas.

632
00:33:35,187 --> 00:33:37,189
That's a brilliant idea.

633
00:33:37,276 --> 00:33:40,757
You know what? I'll get to
work, write some ideas down.

634
00:33:40,844 --> 00:33:42,063
Thank you, Charlie.

635
00:34:03,258 --> 00:34:05,956
You're still up?

636
00:34:06,087 --> 00:34:08,655
I had an idea for work.

637
00:34:08,785 --> 00:34:12,659
So I just wanted to
get some notes down.

638
00:34:12,789 --> 00:34:14,400
Did you want to work out here?
I can...

639
00:34:14,443 --> 00:34:16,445
Oh, no, no no no.
You're fine.

640
00:34:16,619 --> 00:34:18,708
I just came back for
some more pot pie.

641
00:34:20,232 --> 00:34:23,061
Well, I'm glad you like it.

642
00:34:29,328 --> 00:34:32,679
I'm glad you're
using the fireplace.

643
00:34:32,809 --> 00:34:34,376
In all the time I've been
here, I've never used it once.

644
00:34:34,550 --> 00:34:37,684
So. It's good to know it works.

645
00:34:38,163 --> 00:34:39,686
Really?

646
00:34:41,818 --> 00:34:45,692
If I lived here, I'd
have it on every night.

647
00:34:45,822 --> 00:34:47,302
There's something
about a fireplace

648
00:34:47,476 --> 00:34:50,131
that makes a house
feel like a home.

649
00:34:53,874 --> 00:34:57,095
Listen, um...

650
00:34:57,182 --> 00:34:59,445
I know I've been short with you
for the past couple of days

651
00:34:59,575 --> 00:35:02,752
and you don't deserve any of it.

652
00:35:02,839 --> 00:35:05,842
I'm sure me being here isn't
what you expected either.

653
00:35:05,929 --> 00:35:08,149
So... I'm sorry.

654
00:35:09,194 --> 00:35:11,848
I get it.

655
00:35:11,892 --> 00:35:13,850
This is your home.

656
00:35:13,937 --> 00:35:15,722
And you weren't
expecting a visitor

657
00:35:15,852 --> 00:35:18,246
barging into your
personal space.

658
00:35:18,333 --> 00:35:20,814
And spreading her Christmas
cheer all about the place.

659
00:35:20,857 --> 00:35:22,598
Are you always
this understanding?

660
00:35:22,685 --> 00:35:24,644
Would you rather I be upset?

661
00:35:24,731 --> 00:35:27,342
Do you get upset about anything?

662
00:35:27,473 --> 00:35:31,085
Yes! Plenty of things upset me.

663
00:35:31,216 --> 00:35:34,219
Animal cruelty.

664
00:35:34,393 --> 00:35:37,787
And cabdrivers who
lean on their horns.

665
00:35:37,918 --> 00:35:41,182
And people who cough without
covering their mouths.

666
00:35:42,618 --> 00:35:44,142
Do you want me to go on?

667
00:35:44,272 --> 00:35:46,492
No. No.

668
00:35:46,579 --> 00:35:48,624
It's good to see
that you're human.

669
00:35:48,798 --> 00:35:50,800
Well, it's good to know
you can still laugh.

670
00:35:52,715 --> 00:35:54,587
Okay.

671
00:35:54,761 --> 00:35:57,155
You know, I'm not
some kind of a Scrooge.

672
00:35:58,895 --> 00:36:01,507
Look, I'm not going to
apologize for who I am

673
00:36:01,594 --> 00:36:04,031
and I don't expect
you to either.

674
00:36:04,249 --> 00:36:06,468
I love my job,

675
00:36:06,642 --> 00:36:08,905
and well, I have to assume
that you love writing,

676
00:36:09,079 --> 00:36:12,648
despite how torturous
your process is.

677
00:36:17,218 --> 00:36:21,091
The thing is...

678
00:36:21,179 --> 00:36:23,268
I don't know how to
conjure up the magic

679
00:36:23,355 --> 00:36:26,184
that shot me up the
bestseller lists.

680
00:36:26,358 --> 00:36:30,144
I wrote my manuscript before
Sally Anne died, and now...

681
00:36:30,275 --> 00:36:32,755
Now I have an agent
who wants pages.

682
00:36:32,842 --> 00:36:34,540
I have a publisher that
wants a bestseller.

683
00:36:34,714 --> 00:36:36,977
I have readers that want
twists they've never expected.

684
00:36:37,064 --> 00:36:39,458
And my mind is just...

685
00:36:39,588 --> 00:36:41,895
Blank.

686
00:36:42,025 --> 00:36:44,376
Why do you write?

687
00:36:44,593 --> 00:36:46,204
Because I have contracts, and
deadlines, and readers...

688
00:36:46,334 --> 00:36:49,511
No no no. Before that.

689
00:36:49,685 --> 00:36:53,515
What made you start
writing in the first place?

690
00:36:53,689 --> 00:36:57,345
I remember, reading bedtime
stories with my mom

691
00:36:57,476 --> 00:37:00,130
when I was a kid.

692
00:37:00,218 --> 00:37:02,742
I used to get so excited

693
00:37:02,916 --> 00:37:05,919
about coming up with new twists
and turns to surprise her.

694
00:37:06,006 --> 00:37:07,094
You know.

695
00:37:07,137 --> 00:37:09,749
I love that.

696
00:37:11,098 --> 00:37:14,623
Well, maybe pretend that you're
writing for your mother.

697
00:37:14,710 --> 00:37:17,017
For Mitzy.

698
00:37:17,104 --> 00:37:19,237
And try focusing on a
few words instead of

699
00:37:19,367 --> 00:37:21,935
thinking of the
whole book.

700
00:37:22,022 --> 00:37:26,592
Like, ah, making grilled cheese
instead of a gourmet meal.

701
00:37:28,594 --> 00:37:33,076
Grilled cheese?
[chuckles]

702
00:37:33,207 --> 00:37:37,211
You're a really positive
person, you know that?

703
00:37:37,298 --> 00:37:41,389
Well, I prefer to be the
sunshine, not the rain.

704
00:37:41,476 --> 00:37:43,957
And you're definitely
not a thief.

705
00:37:44,044 --> 00:37:45,741
Although...

706
00:37:45,872 --> 00:37:48,396
A perfect criminal is always
someone you least suspect.

707
00:37:52,444 --> 00:37:53,271
Anyway, I should probably...

708
00:37:53,401 --> 00:37:55,447
Yeah.

709
00:38:04,020 --> 00:38:06,284
Good night.

710
00:38:07,023 --> 00:38:08,416
Good night.

711
00:39:29,758 --> 00:39:31,412

712
00:39:50,126 --> 00:39:52,390
[Lucas starts humming
Christmas carol]

713
00:39:55,741 --> 00:39:58,178
It's to bring people together.

714
00:39:58,308 --> 00:40:00,354
Anyone who wants to come.

715
00:40:00,485 --> 00:40:03,183
Eva, Christmas is
only a week away.

716
00:40:03,270 --> 00:40:04,706
There are a lot of things
that need to fall into place

717
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,491
to make this work.

718
00:40:06,665 --> 00:40:08,231
Well then I'll make
it more simple.

719
00:40:08,318 --> 00:40:11,191
Um, coffee, pastries, and bacon,

720
00:40:11,321 --> 00:40:13,454
because you need to have
bacon at Christmas.

721
00:40:13,628 --> 00:40:16,936
Come on, it's not about the
food, it's about the people.

722
00:40:17,066 --> 00:40:19,417
And where are you getting
the money for this?

723
00:40:19,504 --> 00:40:22,028
I'll use the cash I'm getting
for renting my apartment.

724
00:40:22,245 --> 00:40:24,900
The keys to the cafe are
yours if you want them.

725
00:40:26,336 --> 00:40:27,729
What can we do to help?

726
00:40:27,816 --> 00:40:28,730
Yes!

728
00:40:48,271 --> 00:40:51,753
[Eva] So, you can put an
angel on top, a star,

729
00:40:51,797 --> 00:40:53,755
or even a lucky hat.

730
00:40:53,799 --> 00:40:55,757
Whatever makes you smile.

731
00:40:55,801 --> 00:40:57,890
Create your own traditions

732
00:40:57,977 --> 00:41:00,458
and it will keep you
feeling close to home.

733
00:41:00,545 --> 00:41:03,112
[Eva]
Even when you can't be.

734
00:41:03,330 --> 00:41:06,551
The first Christmas that I
spent with my forever parents,

735
00:41:06,681 --> 00:41:07,987
they let me choose
the tree topper.

736
00:41:08,161 --> 00:41:09,597
And I chose...

737
00:41:12,905 --> 00:41:15,385
My sock!

738
00:41:15,473 --> 00:41:19,433
Now, growing up in foster
care I didn't have a Christmas

739
00:41:19,564 --> 00:41:22,001
stocking so I didn't really
understand the tradition.

740
00:41:22,175 --> 00:41:23,829
So when they asked me what
should go up at the top of the

741
00:41:24,003 --> 00:41:26,571
tree, I decided it should this!

742
00:41:26,658 --> 00:41:28,311
And they agreed,

743
00:41:28,529 --> 00:41:31,837
and we've put a sock up on top
of the tree every year since.

744
00:41:31,924 --> 00:41:35,188
So, this one is for
you, mom and dad.

745
00:41:48,244 --> 00:41:51,552
So, that's all for now, Genies.

746
00:41:51,683 --> 00:41:53,075

and also information about
our Christmas Brunch.

750
00:42:13,879 --> 00:42:16,011
A Christmas sock?

751
00:42:16,751 --> 00:42:18,492
I can take that down.

752
00:42:18,666 --> 00:42:19,928
That was just for my blog.

753
00:42:20,102 --> 00:42:21,930
No. No no no.

754
00:42:22,104 --> 00:42:24,933
Leave it. I appreciate
the originality.

755
00:42:29,764 --> 00:42:32,245
Your adoptive
parents sound nice.

756
00:42:32,288 --> 00:42:34,508
They are.

757
00:42:34,552 --> 00:42:38,077
I had great foster parents
growing up but just,

758
00:42:38,164 --> 00:42:39,992
nowhere really
felt like home.

759
00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:42,385
I just didn't belong.

760
00:42:42,472 --> 00:42:44,692
And Ron and Dara gave me that.

761
00:42:44,779 --> 00:42:47,608
So, they are my true parents.

762
00:42:48,827 --> 00:42:51,569
You gave them
something special, too.

763
00:42:53,788 --> 00:42:56,051
Thank you?

764
00:42:56,835 --> 00:42:58,880
I actually owe you a thank you.

765
00:42:59,011 --> 00:43:00,882
I took your advice
about starting small

766
00:43:00,969 --> 00:43:03,058
and I wrote ten
thousand words.

767
00:43:03,145 --> 00:43:04,712
-Since last night?
-Uh huh.

768
00:43:04,799 --> 00:43:07,106
That's amazing.
Congratulations.

769
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:08,847
Thank you.

770
00:43:08,934 --> 00:43:10,500
And I was just thinking
I wanted to take a break

771
00:43:10,631 --> 00:43:12,372
and make some grilled cheese.

772
00:43:12,502 --> 00:43:13,982
You want to join?

773
00:43:14,635 --> 00:43:18,291
Ah, yes! Yes.

774
00:43:18,421 --> 00:43:21,033
If I ever say no to food,
please, call the paramedics.

775
00:43:21,163 --> 00:43:23,165
There's something
wrong with me.

776
00:43:23,296 --> 00:43:24,166
Right!

777
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,348
Do not touch the cheese!

778
00:43:32,479 --> 00:43:33,872
If you keep eating it,

779
00:43:33,959 --> 00:43:35,003
I will not have enough
for the sandwiches.

780
00:43:35,221 --> 00:43:36,918
I was just making sure
that it hasn't gone off.

781
00:43:37,049 --> 00:43:38,006
Yeah.

782
00:43:39,660 --> 00:43:42,489
You know, I knew you could cook.

783
00:43:42,663 --> 00:43:46,319
Well, the spices in your
cupboard were your give away.

784
00:43:47,450 --> 00:43:50,410
Yeah, I used to cook a lot.
I just...

785
00:43:50,497 --> 00:43:53,152
Lost interest, you know.

786
00:43:53,326 --> 00:43:56,285
So I noticed you
had an invitation

787
00:43:56,372 --> 00:43:57,547
to the Snowflake Ball.

788
00:43:57,635 --> 00:43:59,288
I mean, that's exciting!

789
00:44:01,073 --> 00:44:04,424
Yeah, I won't be going.

790
00:44:04,554 --> 00:44:07,035
But the proceeds all go
to the Children's Charity.

791
00:44:07,209 --> 00:44:10,604
I mean, it's a
wonderful organization.

792
00:44:10,822 --> 00:44:13,041
You know, now that you're
on a roll with the writing,

793
00:44:13,128 --> 00:44:15,348
it might be fun to
have a night out.

794
00:44:15,522 --> 00:44:17,785
Emmm, I'd rather stay in.

might think, I'm not going to be

life in this apartment.

I just, I just can't
keep pretending

801
00:44:40,590 --> 00:44:43,376
like everything is okay.
Like I'm okay.

802
00:44:43,463 --> 00:44:45,987
Well, you shouldn't
have to pretend.

803
00:44:46,161 --> 00:44:48,468
That's why I stay away.

804
00:44:48,642 --> 00:44:51,384
Even from Mitzy?

805
00:44:51,471 --> 00:44:54,256
You know, you're very lucky
to have your mother so close.

806
00:44:54,387 --> 00:44:57,782
I'd give anything for my
parents to be here at Christmas.

807
00:44:57,869 --> 00:45:01,089
Well, why aren't they?

808
00:45:01,263 --> 00:45:04,092
Well, my concierge
business is growing

809
00:45:04,179 --> 00:45:06,486
and I need to work
through the holidays.

810
00:45:06,573 --> 00:45:09,141
And they can't afford to
come to New York this year.

811
00:45:09,315 --> 00:45:11,621
So they'll come in
the summer, instead.

812
00:45:11,709 --> 00:45:13,145
It will be much better.

813
00:45:13,275 --> 00:45:16,017
We can go to Central
Park and picnic

814
00:45:16,191 --> 00:45:19,107
and go to Coney Island...

815
00:45:19,238 --> 00:45:21,806
Summer's still a long way off.

What I mean is, sure, she
does stuff, but you know,

876
00:49:50,422 --> 00:49:53,729
that's different
from companionship,

877
00:49:53,816 --> 00:49:56,819
someone to talk to at
the end of the day.

878
00:49:56,950 --> 00:49:58,647
You know?

879
00:49:59,735 --> 00:50:02,390
Yeah. I do.

880
00:50:04,827 --> 00:50:06,786
Okay, well, I'm off soon.

881
00:50:06,916 --> 00:50:08,875
Is there anything you
want me to pick up?

882
00:50:09,049 --> 00:50:11,051
Actually, yes.

883
00:50:11,225 --> 00:50:12,400
I was wondering if
you could help me

884
00:50:12,531 --> 00:50:15,664
with my mother's
Christmas gift.

885
00:50:15,795 --> 00:50:18,363
I want to get her
something really special.

886
00:50:18,493 --> 00:50:21,453
I mean, she did go above
and beyond for mine.

887
00:50:22,889 --> 00:50:25,892
Well...

888
00:50:25,979 --> 00:50:28,590
Come with me.

889
00:50:28,677 --> 00:50:31,376
I can take you to
some great stores.

890
00:50:31,506 --> 00:50:33,856
And you can choose
something for yourself.

891
00:50:33,987 --> 00:50:36,163
Oh, I don't know.

892
00:50:36,294 --> 00:50:37,382
There's going to
be too many people.

893
00:50:37,556 --> 00:50:39,906
And I hate being recognized.

894
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:41,429
Small steps.

895
00:50:52,962 --> 00:50:55,574
Step one - coffee.

896
00:50:56,618 --> 00:50:58,359
No one is going
to recognize you.

897
00:50:58,490 --> 00:50:59,621
And wearing your hat like that

898
00:50:59,752 --> 00:51:01,667
is going to draw
even more attention.

899
00:51:01,754 --> 00:51:03,234
You look ridiculous.

900
00:51:04,322 --> 00:51:05,671
Hi. Can I get two
mochas, please,

901
00:51:05,801 --> 00:51:07,020
with extra whipped
cream on mine.

902
00:51:08,108 --> 00:51:09,196
I'm good.

903
00:51:09,370 --> 00:51:10,632
-Of course.
-Thank you.

904
00:51:17,074 --> 00:51:20,729
I'm sorry to do this.
But, I'm a huge fan.

905
00:51:20,860 --> 00:51:23,384
I've watched all the
videos on your blog.

906
00:51:24,907 --> 00:51:28,868
Oh, that's so lovely.
I'm so glad that you like them.

907
00:51:28,998 --> 00:51:32,132
Can I make a request for
a gingerbread house demo?

908
00:51:32,306 --> 00:51:33,525
Absolutely!

909
00:51:33,655 --> 00:51:35,048
I'll have it up by
the end of the week.

910
00:51:35,135 --> 00:51:36,528
Amazing. Thank you so much.

911
00:51:40,358 --> 00:51:42,186
Maybe you want the hat.

912
00:51:55,024 --> 00:51:57,549
Ah! Look at that.

913
00:51:57,723 --> 00:51:59,377
It's gorgeous!

914
00:51:59,551 --> 00:52:00,856
Yeah. You would look...

915
00:52:00,900 --> 00:52:03,816
I mean, if you like
it, you should get it.

916
00:52:04,599 --> 00:52:06,340
Ah.

917
00:52:06,427 --> 00:52:08,560
Maybe next year.

918
00:52:09,648 --> 00:52:11,128
It's okay.

919
00:52:11,519 --> 00:52:14,218
I have something else I can
wear to the Snowflake Ball.

920
00:52:14,305 --> 00:52:15,784
You're going to
the Snowflake Ball?

921
00:52:15,958 --> 00:52:17,395
I am.

922
00:52:18,700 --> 00:52:22,400
I told the organizer
that you were going too.

923
00:52:22,530 --> 00:52:25,142
And why would you do that?

924
00:52:25,272 --> 00:52:26,665
Well, how can you stay inspired

925
00:52:26,882 --> 00:52:28,710
within the walls
of your penthouse?

926
00:52:28,884 --> 00:52:30,799
That's a big step
from grilled cheese.

927
00:52:30,930 --> 00:52:32,366
Come on! You're doing so well!
I mean...

928
00:52:32,584 --> 00:52:35,369
Aren't we having fun?

929
00:52:35,456 --> 00:52:37,241
Lucas, there is more
to life than work.

930
00:52:37,415 --> 00:52:39,025
It's one night!

931
00:52:39,199 --> 00:52:40,809
It will be fun.

932
00:52:40,983 --> 00:52:42,507
I'll be right beside you.

933
00:52:42,724 --> 00:52:46,163
Your, ah, your wingman to save
you from awkward encounters and

934
00:52:46,293 --> 00:52:49,644
keep the conversations light,
and festive and impersonal.

935
00:52:49,731 --> 00:52:52,299
You know, I'm very
good at small talk.

936
00:52:52,386 --> 00:52:54,040
Oh, I don't doubt that you are.

937
00:52:54,258 --> 00:52:56,651
Plus, I've never been
to a glamorous ball.

938
00:52:56,869 --> 00:52:57,913
Pleeease!

939
00:52:58,087 --> 00:52:59,437
-Fine.
-Oh yes!

940
00:53:05,356 --> 00:53:09,534
Any woman would love a gift
from Bella Mia Diamonds.

941
00:53:09,664 --> 00:53:11,100
Back for one of those
engagement rings?

942
00:53:11,231 --> 00:53:14,713
Ahh... No. No.

943
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,194
No, we are looking
for a brooch.

944
00:53:23,330 --> 00:53:25,680
What was that about?

945
00:53:25,854 --> 00:53:27,552
It's not a crime to admire
a ring through a window!

946
00:53:27,726 --> 00:53:29,075
That's what they're there for!

947
00:53:29,162 --> 00:53:30,859
Uh huh.

948
00:53:30,946 --> 00:53:34,385
So, I'm thinking she would
like something classic.

949
00:53:36,300 --> 00:53:37,692
Eva?

950
00:53:37,866 --> 00:53:41,435
Arthur!
Is today ring day?

951
00:53:41,479 --> 00:53:44,133
Oh! It's beautiful.
Perfect choice.

952
00:53:44,264 --> 00:53:46,527
Now I just need a hiding spot
where Laura won't find it.

953
00:53:46,658 --> 00:53:48,834
Don't put it in the recycling.

954
00:53:49,008 --> 00:53:51,576
Nothing's safe in there.

955
00:53:51,663 --> 00:53:54,274
Arthur, this is
my friend, Lucas.

956
00:53:54,405 --> 00:53:56,450
So very nice to meet you, Lucas.

957
00:53:56,581 --> 00:53:58,496
My girlfriend and I
are such big fans!

958
00:54:00,454 --> 00:54:02,456
Ah, thank you.

959
00:54:02,674 --> 00:54:04,676
We're actually just shopping for
a gift for Lucas' mother, so...

960
00:54:04,763 --> 00:54:07,069
Oh, then I won't keep you.

961
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:08,593
I can't wait for the next book.

962
00:54:08,723 --> 00:54:10,421
Shouldn't be too long now.

963
00:54:10,508 --> 00:54:12,074
And I'll have the final mood
boards and the schedule

964
00:54:12,205 --> 00:54:13,641
for the big day to you
first thing in the morning.

965
00:54:13,772 --> 00:54:15,687
Sounds good.
Nice meeting you.

966
00:54:23,390 --> 00:54:25,653
That wasn't so bad, was it?

967
00:54:25,784 --> 00:54:27,699
I'm telling you, I'm a
pretty stellar wingman.

968
00:54:27,916 --> 00:54:30,876
[chuckles]
Indeed you are.

969
00:54:32,181 --> 00:54:33,705
Which one you want to look at?

970
00:54:35,359 --> 00:54:36,969
-That one?
-Yeah.

971
00:54:44,411 --> 00:54:47,066
So why get engaged in the park?

972
00:54:47,196 --> 00:54:50,983
Well, Arthur and Laura
met in Central Park.

973
00:54:51,070 --> 00:54:54,682
She was building a
snowman, and he...

974
00:54:54,856 --> 00:54:56,423
Thank you.

975
00:54:56,597 --> 00:54:58,643
Offered his scarf to
complete the look.

976
00:54:58,773 --> 00:55:01,907
And the rest is history.

977
00:55:02,124 --> 00:55:06,738
And so he's hiring you to
come up with his proposal?

978
00:55:09,871 --> 00:55:14,049
Arthur just needs some help
focusing all of his love

979
00:55:14,223 --> 00:55:19,272
into one sweet,
non-wild bird gesture.

980
00:55:20,665 --> 00:55:22,623
It's a long story.

981
00:55:22,797 --> 00:55:25,234
I have some ideas,

982
00:55:25,365 --> 00:55:28,977
it's just nothing that I'm
completely in love with.

983
00:55:33,025 --> 00:55:38,987
Well, how about they go to
the park to build a snowman.

984
00:55:39,074 --> 00:55:43,427
And then he hands her different
things, like clothing,

985
00:55:43,601 --> 00:55:45,254
vegetables, branches.

986
00:55:45,342 --> 00:55:48,388
And then in the end,
hands her is the ring.

987
00:55:50,129 --> 00:55:51,565
Okay. That's perfect!

988
00:55:51,739 --> 00:55:53,088
[laughs]

989
00:55:53,959 --> 00:55:55,743
Well, who knew there
was a romantic

990
00:55:55,917 --> 00:55:59,530
buried in there,
deep down somewhere?

991
00:55:59,617 --> 00:56:03,969
No, I'm just a humble writer
with a knack for predicting

992
00:56:04,056 --> 00:56:07,102
human nature and
plotting inevitabilities.

993
00:56:07,189 --> 00:56:10,715
See, you plan for when they
can't live without each other.

994
00:56:10,802 --> 00:56:13,848
I write for when they can't
live with each other anymore.

995
00:56:14,936 --> 00:56:16,938
Oh, please!

996
00:56:17,112 --> 00:56:19,985
You know, I never
understood why people

997
00:56:20,115 --> 00:56:22,857
spend so much energy
on the proposal.

998
00:56:23,075 --> 00:56:25,425
When the most
important thing

999
00:56:25,512 --> 00:56:26,644
is every step of
the relationship.

1000
00:56:26,774 --> 00:56:28,907
Well, it's a grand gesture.

1001
00:56:29,037 --> 00:56:30,604
[scoffs] Oh okay.

1002
00:56:30,735 --> 00:56:32,476
How has your
optimism about love

1003
00:56:32,606 --> 00:56:34,608
remained unscathed
for so long?

1004
00:56:35,783 --> 00:56:39,700
Well, no. I am not unscathed.

1005
00:56:41,180 --> 00:56:45,793
No, I've dated some
serious losers.

1006
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,230
Okay. So...

1007
00:56:48,361 --> 00:56:53,410
That hasn't changed your
view on happily-ever-afters?

1008
00:56:53,497 --> 00:56:55,673
No.

1009
00:56:56,804 --> 00:56:58,893
I can still believe
in true love

1010
00:56:58,980 --> 00:57:02,810
without believing all
relationships are perfect.

1011
00:57:02,984 --> 00:57:05,944
The same way I still
believe in Santa.

1012
00:57:06,118 --> 00:57:07,859
[chuckles]

1013
00:57:07,989 --> 00:57:11,515
Okay, well, Santa aside...

1014
00:57:11,645 --> 00:57:16,128
Have you ever been in love?

1015
00:57:18,260 --> 00:57:19,610
No.

1016
00:57:22,090 --> 00:57:23,831
But it's on my bucket list.

1017
00:57:23,962 --> 00:57:24,876
Ah!

1018
00:57:27,139 --> 00:57:34,929
Well, the type of love you're
looking for, doesn't exist.

1019
00:57:36,453 --> 00:57:37,932
And I will prove you wrong.

1020
00:57:38,106 --> 00:57:40,239
Oh, well I hope that you do.

1021
00:57:44,591 --> 00:57:46,680
Arthur loves your proposal!

1022
00:57:46,811 --> 00:57:47,986
You're good to go for Friday.

1023
00:57:48,073 --> 00:57:49,596
Oh great!

1024
00:57:49,683 --> 00:57:52,033
Actually it was Lucas' idea.

1025
00:57:52,207 --> 00:57:55,472
You talked to Lucas
about Arthur's proposal?

1026
00:57:55,515 --> 00:57:58,953
Well, we bumped into Arthur
when we were Christmas shopping.

1027
00:57:59,084 --> 00:58:01,695
You two went Christmas
shopping together?

1028
00:58:01,869 --> 00:58:03,915
I thought he was a
bit of a scrooge.

1029
00:58:04,045 --> 00:58:06,439
You know, he's starting
to come around.

1030
00:58:06,570 --> 00:58:07,788
We went to Bella Mia Diamonds.

1031
00:58:07,875 --> 00:58:10,051
You went Christmas shopping

1032
00:58:10,095 --> 00:58:13,533
with Lucas Blade at
Bella Mia Diamonds?

1033
00:58:13,707 --> 00:58:15,274
It was nothing.

1034
00:58:15,492 --> 00:58:18,451
We both had things we had to
buy, so why not go together?

1035
00:58:18,625 --> 00:58:20,584
What is going on?

1036
00:58:20,671 --> 00:58:22,977
You like him!

1037
00:58:23,108 --> 00:58:25,980
It doesn't matter if I like him.

1038
00:58:26,111 --> 00:58:28,548
He's completely uninterested
in romance and,

1039
00:58:28,592 --> 00:58:31,943
I get it, he's
been through a lot.

1040
00:58:32,030 --> 00:58:33,858
So we are just friends.

1041
00:58:34,032 --> 00:58:36,687
Mmm hmm.
Just friends.

1042
00:58:40,995 --> 00:58:42,040
[sighs]

1043
00:58:51,223 --> 00:58:52,616
[knock at door]

1044
00:58:52,790 --> 00:58:54,835
[door opens }

1045
00:58:56,228 --> 00:58:57,664
Come in.

1046
00:59:01,799 --> 00:59:04,802
Merry Christmas.

1047
00:59:04,976 --> 00:59:07,761
But it's not Christmas.

1048
00:59:07,892 --> 00:59:09,807
You're supposed to say that

1049
00:59:09,894 --> 00:59:11,809
when you give someone
a Christmas gift.

1050
00:59:12,026 --> 00:59:13,288
