1
00:01:02,949 --> 00:01:05,049
There you go.

2
00:01:05,084 --> 00:01:06,584
You do realize,

3
00:01:06,619 --> 00:01:08,953
we've past half a dozen
coffee places to get here?

4
00:01:09,022 --> 00:01:10,388
And some of them

5
00:01:10,423 --> 00:01:12,590
you can actually sit inside
where it's warm.

6
00:01:12,625 --> 00:01:13,905
This is the best coffee in town.

7
00:01:13,929 --> 00:01:15,593
Sure.

8
00:01:15,628 --> 00:01:17,795
What's a little frost bite
for the sake of good coffee?

9
00:01:17,864 --> 00:01:19,430
I just love this time of year.

10
00:01:19,465 --> 00:01:22,099
Everyone getting ready
for the Christmas Festival.

11
00:01:22,135 --> 00:01:24,769
Setting up decorations.

12
00:01:24,804 --> 00:01:27,004
You may have mentioned that
once or twice over the years

13
00:01:27,028 --> 00:01:27,994
since we were kids?

14
00:01:28,029 --> 00:01:30,074
Didn't want you to forget.

15
00:01:30,109 --> 00:01:31,842
Hey,

16
00:01:31,878 --> 00:01:34,679
shouldn't they be setting up for
that ice sculpture competition?

17
00:01:34,714 --> 00:01:37,848
There's still a couple weeks
before the festivals starts.

18
00:01:37,884 --> 00:01:39,350
That's not a lot of time.

19
00:01:39,385 --> 00:01:41,425
I mean, they still have to
register the contestants,

20
00:01:41,449 --> 00:01:42,720
approve their designs.

21
00:01:42,755 --> 00:01:45,275
And you wouldn't believe all the
ice that has to get trucked in.

22
00:01:45,299 --> 00:01:46,891
I see law school

23
00:01:46,918 --> 00:01:49,038
hasn't put a damper on your
passion for ice sculpting.

24
00:01:49,062 --> 00:01:50,595
I've missed working with my Dad.

25
00:01:50,630 --> 00:01:53,397
We haven't got to sculpt
together in three years.

26
00:01:53,433 --> 00:01:55,833
Oh.

27
00:01:55,868 --> 00:01:59,003
Yep. I got to go.

28
00:01:59,038 --> 00:02:00,104
Let's do dinner tonight.

29
00:02:00,173 --> 00:02:01,505
I can't tonight.

30
00:02:01,541 --> 00:02:03,007
I promised the folks.

31
00:02:03,042 --> 00:02:04,942
But I'll text you
and we'll set up a day.

32
00:02:05,011 --> 00:02:07,078
Say hi to your mom for me. I will.

33
00:02:10,450 --> 00:02:12,183
Uh-huh.

34
00:02:12,218 --> 00:02:13,517
Well, I will speak to the Judge

35
00:02:13,553 --> 00:02:15,353
and see if we can move your hearing.

36
00:02:15,388 --> 00:02:17,255
But we only have a couple weeks
'til Christmas,

37
00:02:17,290 --> 00:02:20,057
I'm afraid it might already
be too late.

38
00:02:20,093 --> 00:02:22,326
Sorry. I met Sarah for coffee.

39
00:02:22,362 --> 00:02:25,930
Ms. Kincaid, can you just
hold for just a moment please?

40
00:02:25,999 --> 00:02:28,280
Who handles Judge Pettis'
schedule over at the courthouse?

41
00:02:28,304 --> 00:02:30,304
Ms. Kincaid needs to
push her hearing back and I...

42
00:02:30,328 --> 00:02:31,669
June Whalen. June.

43
00:02:31,704 --> 00:02:33,571
Let me talk to her. Oh, okay.

44
00:02:33,606 --> 00:02:34,572
Ms. Kincaid?

45
00:02:34,607 --> 00:02:36,173
Hi, it's Emma.

46
00:02:36,209 --> 00:02:38,609
Let me see what I can do
and I'll get right back to you.

47
00:02:38,678 --> 00:02:41,245
Thanks. Merry Christmas. Bye.

48
00:02:41,281 --> 00:02:43,381
Give me 10 minutes.

49
00:02:46,719 --> 00:02:48,052
Take a look at these,

50
00:02:48,087 --> 00:02:49,854
I red-lined the changes
for your approval,

51
00:02:49,889 --> 00:02:51,000
I can have a final draft ready
for signatures in the morning.

52
00:02:51,024 --> 00:02:53,357
Great. And Ms. Kincaid?

53
00:02:53,393 --> 00:02:55,893
The Judge had an opening
two weeks after the holidays.

54
00:02:55,928 --> 00:02:56,894
We're all set.

55
00:02:56,929 --> 00:02:58,729
Thank you, Emma.

56
00:02:58,765 --> 00:03:00,031
We make a great team.

57
00:03:00,066 --> 00:03:01,332
Yes, we do.

58
00:03:01,367 --> 00:03:02,700
And it's going to get even better

59
00:03:02,735 --> 00:03:04,502
once we get the results
of your bar exam.

60
00:03:04,537 --> 00:03:06,070
Assuming I pass.

61
00:03:06,105 --> 00:03:08,239
Half the people fail
the first time they take it.

62
00:03:08,274 --> 00:03:10,174
Those people are not Emma Parkers.

63
00:03:10,209 --> 00:03:12,510
And with that resounding
vote of confidence,

64
00:03:12,545 --> 00:03:13,878
I'll get back to work.

65
00:03:13,913 --> 00:03:15,553
Oh, dinner tonight at seven.
Is that okay?

66
00:03:15,577 --> 00:03:17,315
I'll be there.

67
00:03:17,350 --> 00:03:21,085
Oh, hey... what's going on with
the Ice Sculpting Competition?

68
00:03:21,154 --> 00:03:23,054
I don't know. What do you mean?

69
00:03:23,089 --> 00:03:24,322
I was at the park with Sarah,

70
00:03:24,357 --> 00:03:26,023
they haven't started setting up yet.

71
00:03:26,059 --> 00:03:30,094
They put Harvey Norris in charge
of the Festival this year.

72
00:03:30,163 --> 00:03:32,096
And it is his first term
on Town Council.

73
00:03:32,165 --> 00:03:35,232
So, he's probably just in
a little over his head.

74
00:03:35,268 --> 00:03:38,202
You're probably right.

75
00:03:38,237 --> 00:03:40,371
There's a lot to do
with the the Festival.

76
00:04:04,831 --> 00:04:05,771
Can I help you?

77
00:04:05,832 --> 00:04:07,365
Oh, hey. Hi.

78
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,735
No, I'm just, you know, browsing.

79
00:04:10,770 --> 00:04:12,570
Uh, what do you think?

80
00:04:12,605 --> 00:04:14,405
It's beautiful.

81
00:04:14,474 --> 00:04:16,374
Yeah? Good choice.

82
00:04:16,409 --> 00:04:18,409
Well, thank you.

83
00:04:29,822 --> 00:04:31,722
See anything you like?

84
00:04:31,758 --> 00:04:35,259
Actually, I do.

85
00:04:35,328 --> 00:04:37,495
This is... beautiful.

86
00:04:37,530 --> 00:04:38,496
Who did this?

87
00:04:38,531 --> 00:04:41,565
Uh, my brother.

88
00:04:41,601 --> 00:04:42,733
You should put it out front,

89
00:04:42,802 --> 00:04:45,469
it'll really help draw in a crowd.

90
00:04:45,505 --> 00:04:47,872
Yeah, you know, he's not really
into showing them off.

91
00:04:49,475 --> 00:04:51,976
Oh. Well, I've been ice
sculpting since I was little

92
00:04:52,011 --> 00:04:53,711
and this is really good.

93
00:04:53,746 --> 00:04:56,080
I'll tell him you said so.

94
00:04:57,850 --> 00:05:00,151
There used to be a Claiborne
Tree Farms outside of town.

95
00:05:00,186 --> 00:05:01,919
Mmm-hmm.

96
00:05:01,988 --> 00:05:05,489
This nice couple ran it and they
always gave me this candy cane

97
00:05:05,525 --> 00:05:07,691
every time we did our Christmas tree.

98
00:05:07,727 --> 00:05:08,893
Those were my folks.

99
00:05:08,928 --> 00:05:10,060
No kidding.

100
00:05:10,129 --> 00:05:11,862
Yeah, one and the same.

101
00:05:11,898 --> 00:05:14,698
They, uh, they retired last year
and I took over the business.

102
00:05:14,734 --> 00:05:16,167
I'm Nick Claiborne.

103
00:05:16,202 --> 00:05:18,402
Hi. Emma Parkers.

104
00:05:18,471 --> 00:05:20,671
It's nice to meet you.

105
00:05:20,706 --> 00:05:22,807
And the candy cane thing,
that was my idea.

106
00:05:22,842 --> 00:05:27,011
Clearly you had a head for
business even at a young age.

107
00:05:27,046 --> 00:05:29,580
I just really like candy canes.

108
00:05:32,985 --> 00:05:36,187
Listen, about before...

109
00:05:36,222 --> 00:05:39,657
I don't know, there's just
something about these trees

110
00:05:39,692 --> 00:05:42,359
that Christmas smell, I can't resist.

111
00:05:43,729 --> 00:05:45,369
That's not the first time
I've heard that.

112
00:05:47,066 --> 00:05:49,700
Browse to your heart's content.

113
00:05:49,735 --> 00:05:52,236
Thanks.

114
00:05:53,506 --> 00:05:54,472
I got to go.

115
00:05:54,507 --> 00:05:56,474
You got to go.

116
00:05:56,509 --> 00:05:57,475
See you around. Yeah.

117
00:05:57,510 --> 00:05:59,410
Oh.

118
00:05:59,479 --> 00:06:02,012
Hey.

119
00:06:02,048 --> 00:06:04,081
Merry Christmas.

120
00:06:06,686 --> 00:06:08,953
Merry Christmas.

121
00:06:43,656 --> 00:06:47,558
I can't believe they cancelled
the ice sculpting competition.

122
00:06:47,627 --> 00:06:50,294
They don't call it Christmas
Festival of Ice for nothing.

123
00:06:50,329 --> 00:06:52,830
I mean, people in Westford
have been sculpting ice here

124
00:06:52,865 --> 00:06:53,905
since practically forever.

125
00:06:53,929 --> 00:06:57,568
It's the reason the whole festival
got started in the first place.

126
00:06:57,637 --> 00:06:59,036
You've been gone.

127
00:06:59,071 --> 00:07:01,238
Okay, but I come home
every year for Christmas

128
00:07:01,307 --> 00:07:03,440
and there's always
ice sculptures in the park.

129
00:07:03,476 --> 00:07:05,009
Well, the last few years

130
00:07:05,044 --> 00:07:06,977
the festival hasn't drawn
as well as it used to.

131
00:07:07,013 --> 00:07:08,679
Yeah, and I don't know why

132
00:07:08,714 --> 00:07:10,954
people don't want to come
all this way to sit in the cold

133
00:07:10,978 --> 00:07:13,058
and watch your father chip away
at big chunks of ice.

134
00:07:13,082 --> 00:07:14,184
Hey.

135
00:07:14,220 --> 00:07:16,053
I love it.

136
00:07:16,122 --> 00:07:18,122
Okay, but those ice sculptures
are works of art.

137
00:07:18,157 --> 00:07:20,958
Oh, unfortunately they are
becoming a lost art.

138
00:07:20,993 --> 00:07:23,294
I just... I can't believe it.

139
00:07:23,329 --> 00:07:26,297
Oh, did you tell Emma your big news?

140
00:07:26,332 --> 00:07:31,869
The, um, county has officially chosen
my design for the new library branch.

141
00:07:31,938 --> 00:07:33,671
Dad! That's great!

142
00:07:33,706 --> 00:07:35,973
Isn't that wonderful?

143
00:07:36,008 --> 00:07:38,442
So once you get the results
of your bar exam

144
00:07:38,477 --> 00:07:44,815
we will all have something
special to celebrate this Christmas.

145
00:07:44,850 --> 00:07:45,883
To the Parkers.

146
00:07:45,952 --> 00:07:47,851
To a new design, to a new lawyer,

147
00:07:47,887 --> 00:07:50,054
and I get a new partner.

148
00:07:50,122 --> 00:07:51,689
Hear, hear.

149
00:07:59,632 --> 00:08:02,166
I almost finished
carving the new model.

150
00:08:02,201 --> 00:08:03,534
What do you think?

151
00:08:03,603 --> 00:08:06,870
Too bad we don't get to
see it full-size.

152
00:08:06,939 --> 00:08:09,139
I was looking forward to getting
the Parkers family team

153
00:08:09,163 --> 00:08:11,330
back together too.

154
00:08:16,515 --> 00:08:18,616
Why does this bother me so much?

155
00:08:18,651 --> 00:08:22,052
Well.

156
00:08:22,121 --> 00:08:23,487
It's been a part of your life

157
00:08:23,522 --> 00:08:25,522
for as long as you could remember.

158
00:08:26,910 --> 00:08:28,670
When other kids were learning
to skate on ice

159
00:08:28,694 --> 00:08:30,761
you were learning to carve it.

160
00:08:33,299 --> 00:08:36,767
Yeah, well...

161
00:08:36,802 --> 00:08:39,970
Mom's right, I should be focused
on my career right now.

162
00:08:40,006 --> 00:08:42,339
It's what you said you always wanted.

163
00:08:42,375 --> 00:08:43,540
Be a lawyer.

164
00:08:43,609 --> 00:08:45,309
I know.

165
00:08:45,344 --> 00:08:47,111
You worked very hard
to make it happen.

166
00:08:47,146 --> 00:08:48,712
Then how come all I can think about

167
00:08:48,778 --> 00:08:50,258
are some of the best times of my life

168
00:08:50,282 --> 00:08:52,950
were spent carving these sculptures?

169
00:08:52,985 --> 00:08:54,985
That is a good question.

170
00:08:55,021 --> 00:08:58,355
I feel some fatherly advice
coming on.

171
00:08:59,959 --> 00:09:03,093
You know me so well.

172
00:09:05,531 --> 00:09:08,265
Dug these out the other day.

173
00:09:08,300 --> 00:09:11,135
Thought you were going to need them.

174
00:09:13,105 --> 00:09:15,005
My tools.

175
00:09:15,041 --> 00:09:16,674
Why don't you take them out?

176
00:09:16,709 --> 00:09:19,009
See if you still got the chops.

177
00:09:21,547 --> 00:09:24,014
You don't mind?

178
00:09:24,083 --> 00:09:29,086
Like I said,
it'll give you time to think.

179
00:09:30,089 --> 00:09:31,188
Thanks, Dad.

180
00:10:14,333 --> 00:10:16,667
Hi, I'm here to see Harvey Norris.

181
00:10:16,702 --> 00:10:18,435
Oh, he's not in yet.

182
00:10:18,471 --> 00:10:21,338
Schedule's been pretty crazy, what,
with the Christmas Festival and all.

183
00:10:21,406 --> 00:10:24,185
Actually I wanted to talk to him
about the ice sculpture competition.

184
00:10:24,209 --> 00:10:25,409
Oh, that's been cancelled.

185
00:10:25,644 --> 00:10:27,745
I know.

186
00:10:27,780 --> 00:10:31,348
Could you just tell him that
Emma Parkers stopped by?

187
00:10:31,417 --> 00:10:33,194
Ask him to give me a call?
That's my number.

188
00:10:33,218 --> 00:10:35,252
I sure will. Merry Christmas.

189
00:10:35,787 --> 00:10:37,287
You too.

190
00:10:39,358 --> 00:10:42,993
And what I'd like to do is set
up some sort of small endowment

191
00:10:43,028 --> 00:10:45,529
or a scholarship at the college.

192
00:10:45,598 --> 00:10:47,364
Put it in Sam's name.

193
00:10:47,433 --> 00:10:50,300
Kind of a Christmas present
for my husband.

194
00:10:50,336 --> 00:10:53,137
Vera, that's a wonderful idea.

195
00:10:53,172 --> 00:10:56,140
- Well, he taught there for almost 30 years.
- Sure.

196
00:10:56,175 --> 00:10:58,152
I think he would've liked that.

197
00:10:58,776 --> 00:11:01,384
Emma? Why don't you
give the school a call?

198
00:11:01,412 --> 00:11:03,213
Find out who we should talk to
to set this up.

199
00:11:03,382 --> 00:11:04,714
I'll call right now.

200
00:11:05,550 --> 00:11:06,684
Great.

201
00:11:07,019 --> 00:11:09,853
Good idea, Vera.
That's a really lovely idea.

202
00:11:10,562 --> 00:11:11,995
Hi, this is Emma Parkers.

203
00:11:12,063 --> 00:11:14,664
I was in this morning
to see Harvey Norris.

204
00:11:14,733 --> 00:11:17,467
Oh, he's still not in?

205
00:11:17,536 --> 00:11:20,069
No, I understand that he's
very busy with the festival

206
00:11:20,105 --> 00:11:22,305
but I just...

207
00:11:22,374 --> 00:11:25,476
Could you let him know
that I called? Thanks.

208
00:11:25,544 --> 00:11:27,544
They'll call back.

209
00:11:32,551 --> 00:11:34,584
Emma?

210
00:11:34,619 --> 00:11:36,820
Sam and Vera were clients of mine

211
00:11:36,888 --> 00:11:39,589
from almost the very first day
I started this practice.

212
00:11:39,624 --> 00:11:40,790
I remember.

213
00:11:40,826 --> 00:11:45,595
And now that he's gone...

214
00:11:45,630 --> 00:11:47,964
this endowment means a lot to her.

215
00:11:48,033 --> 00:11:50,133
We're a small firm.

216
00:11:50,202 --> 00:11:53,269
We need to give every client 100%.

217
00:11:54,739 --> 00:11:57,106
I couldn't agree more.

218
00:11:57,142 --> 00:11:59,309
You're going to make a great lawyer.

219
00:12:25,737 --> 00:12:28,805
Oh, those are great. We'll take
10 for City Hall please.

220
00:12:28,874 --> 00:12:30,740
Excuse me, Councilman Norris?

221
00:12:30,775 --> 00:12:32,609
Sure, yeah. Call me Harvey.

222
00:12:32,644 --> 00:12:34,310
Hi, Harvey.

223
00:12:34,379 --> 00:12:36,546
Emma Parkers.
I'm Carol Parkers' daughter.

224
00:12:36,581 --> 00:12:37,780
Oh, sure. Hi, Emma.

225
00:12:37,816 --> 00:12:39,215
How's your mom? Great.

226
00:12:39,251 --> 00:12:41,251
I was hoping you have a minute.

227
00:12:41,286 --> 00:12:44,086
I don't think it's a good idea to
cancel the ice sculpting competition.

228
00:12:44,110 --> 00:12:45,455
I didn't want to.

229
00:12:45,524 --> 00:12:47,368
But we didn't have the budget
for it this year.

230
00:12:47,392 --> 00:12:50,693
It was either cancel the
competition or lose Santa's Workshop.

231
00:12:50,729 --> 00:12:53,196
And I don't want to get on
Santa's naughty list.

232
00:12:53,231 --> 00:12:54,464
No. But you grew up here,

233
00:12:54,533 --> 00:12:56,013
you know how important
the festival is

234
00:12:56,037 --> 00:12:57,467
to the people in Westford.

235
00:12:57,536 --> 00:12:59,702
I sure do. I'm a big fan myself.

236
00:12:59,738 --> 00:13:01,138
There must be something you can do.

237
00:13:01,162 --> 00:13:02,105
I'm sorry, Emma.

238
00:13:02,140 --> 00:13:05,141
I'm afraid my hands are tied.

239
00:13:05,210 --> 00:13:06,876
What if I could raise the money?

240
00:13:06,912 --> 00:13:08,311
Excuse me?

241
00:13:08,380 --> 00:13:10,140
To make up for the difference
in your budget.

242
00:13:10,164 --> 00:13:11,781
To pay for the competition.

243
00:13:11,850 --> 00:13:13,583
$20,000 in less than two weeks?

244
00:13:13,618 --> 00:13:14,884
$20,000?

245
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,119
I'm afraid so.

246
00:13:16,187 --> 00:13:19,055
Oh. Wow. What if I could raise half?

247
00:13:19,090 --> 00:13:22,959
Well, we can't exactly have
half a sculpting competition.

248
00:13:23,028 --> 00:13:25,740
No, I mean, but maybe you could
come up with the money somewhere?

249
00:13:25,764 --> 00:13:27,096
Squeeze your budget a little?

250
00:13:27,132 --> 00:13:29,265
You're serious about this?

251
00:13:29,301 --> 00:13:30,900
It's really important to me.

252
00:13:30,936 --> 00:13:32,635
And to the town.

253
00:13:32,704 --> 00:13:34,949
It's been a part of the
festival for so many years.

254
00:13:34,973 --> 00:13:37,907
If you could just give me a
chance, that's all I ask.

255
00:13:39,744 --> 00:13:41,811
I guess if I squeeze my nickels
a little bit.

256
00:13:42,180 --> 00:13:43,914
I could come up with maybe...

257
00:13:44,549 --> 00:13:46,049
$5,000.

258
00:13:46,185 --> 00:13:47,850
But you'd have to raise the rest.

259
00:13:47,886 --> 00:13:49,519
$15,000?

260
00:13:49,554 --> 00:13:51,521
That's the best I can do.

261
00:13:51,556 --> 00:13:52,556
It's a deal.

262
00:13:54,092 --> 00:13:55,391
Good luck, Emma.

263
00:13:55,427 --> 00:13:57,894
I hope you can pull this off.

264
00:13:58,229 --> 00:14:00,163
Me too.

265
00:14:17,215 --> 00:14:18,915
What a beautiful morning.

266
00:14:18,950 --> 00:14:20,783
Hey, what brings you out?

267
00:14:20,852 --> 00:14:22,785
Just going for a walk,
grabbing a coffee.

268
00:14:22,854 --> 00:14:25,555
Best coffee in town, worth the walk.

269
00:14:25,590 --> 00:14:26,556
Yeah.

270
00:14:26,591 --> 00:14:28,191
I was just thinking.

271
00:14:28,226 --> 00:14:30,146
My parents used to bring me
here every Christmas.

272
00:14:30,170 --> 00:14:31,861
You know, to watch the sculpting.

273
00:14:31,896 --> 00:14:32,862
Yeah? Yeah.

274
00:14:32,897 --> 00:14:34,230
When I was old enough

275
00:14:34,265 --> 00:14:37,033
my dad and I used to compete
every Christmas.

276
00:14:37,068 --> 00:14:38,034
You competed? Yeah.

277
00:14:38,069 --> 00:14:39,035
Yeah.

278
00:14:39,070 --> 00:14:40,670
It was a lot of fun.

279
00:14:40,705 --> 00:14:45,008
Wow. So, I probably
saw you competing.

280
00:14:45,043 --> 00:14:47,577
Maybe we saw each other.

281
00:14:47,612 --> 00:14:49,779
Maybe.

282
00:14:49,848 --> 00:14:53,683
But it's too bad that they have
to cancel it this year.

283
00:14:53,718 --> 00:14:55,451
I heard they didn't
have the money for it.

284
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,220
Yeah.

285
00:14:57,255 --> 00:14:59,389
Yeah, I heard that too.

286
00:14:59,424 --> 00:15:01,858
That's why I decided to
raise the money myself.

287
00:15:01,893 --> 00:15:04,594
Wait, what?

288
00:15:04,663 --> 00:15:06,396
Yeah. I'm going to...

289
00:15:06,431 --> 00:15:08,698
raise the money,
put the competition back on.

290
00:15:08,733 --> 00:15:12,702
And how much money are we talking?

291
00:15:12,737 --> 00:15:14,904
15,000.

292
00:15:14,939 --> 00:15:16,005
Dollars.

293
00:15:18,209 --> 00:15:20,276
You don't think it sounds crazy?

294
00:15:20,345 --> 00:15:21,844
You got to try.

295
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,179
Yeah.

296
00:15:23,214 --> 00:15:25,848
Morning, Nick.

297
00:15:25,884 --> 00:15:28,351
Why, yes, I'd love a cup of
coffee. How thoughtful.

298
00:15:30,021 --> 00:15:32,055
Oh. You brought company.

299
00:15:32,090 --> 00:15:35,391
Lonny, Emma. Emma, Lonny Barnes
my business partner.

300
00:15:35,427 --> 00:15:37,860
Nice to meet you. Hi.

301
00:15:37,896 --> 00:15:40,229
We try to keep an eye on him
but sometimes he wanders off

302
00:15:40,265 --> 00:15:42,098
I hope he hasn't been
too exasperating.

303
00:15:42,167 --> 00:15:43,107
Well.

304
00:15:43,168 --> 00:15:44,500
It's so funny, isn't it?

305
00:15:44,536 --> 00:15:46,235
See what I mean? Total Grinch.

306
00:15:48,106 --> 00:15:49,672
Customers.

307
00:15:49,708 --> 00:15:51,107
Oh, okay. I got to go.

308
00:15:51,176 --> 00:15:52,575
Okay. Come by anytime.

309
00:15:52,610 --> 00:15:54,377
Thank you.

310
00:15:54,412 --> 00:15:56,546
We've known each other
since we were kids.

311
00:15:56,581 --> 00:15:59,382
You know, he gets a little jolly
this time of year.

312
00:15:59,417 --> 00:16:01,217
I'm the same way.

313
00:16:01,252 --> 00:16:04,654
Hey, feel free to sniff around
while you're here.

314
00:16:04,689 --> 00:16:06,689
I should get to work.

315
00:16:06,725 --> 00:16:08,891
But thanks for listening.

316
00:16:09,627 --> 00:16:11,361
Hey, I hope it works out.

317
00:16:13,932 --> 00:16:16,365
You could introduce me
to your brother.

318
00:16:16,401 --> 00:16:19,435
My brother...

319
00:16:19,504 --> 00:16:21,037
Right. Why?

320
00:16:21,072 --> 00:16:24,574
Well, I was just thinking
maybe I could ask him

321
00:16:24,609 --> 00:16:26,476
to use some of his ice sculptures

322
00:16:26,511 --> 00:16:27,791
to help promote the competition.

323
00:16:27,815 --> 00:16:29,579
You know, get people excited again.

324
00:16:29,647 --> 00:16:31,314
Yeah. I don't know about that.

325
00:16:31,349 --> 00:16:33,816
Was he planning to enter
the competition?

326
00:16:34,752 --> 00:16:36,591
No. No, he'd never do that.

327
00:16:36,715 --> 00:16:38,488
No? Why?

328
00:16:39,223 --> 00:16:42,358
He's... he's very busy
at this time of year.

329
00:16:42,393 --> 00:16:44,861
And, um...

330
00:16:44,896 --> 00:16:47,230
he's, uh...

331
00:16:47,265 --> 00:16:48,831
he's not really great with people.

332
00:16:48,867 --> 00:16:51,734
Well, we're going to
need a lot of sculptors.

333
00:16:51,770 --> 00:16:56,372
So, I don't know, maybe I could
get in contact with him?

334
00:16:57,675 --> 00:16:59,976
Yeah.

335
00:17:00,011 --> 00:17:02,311
I'm sorry, Emma.

336
00:17:02,347 --> 00:17:04,881
I wish I could help.

337
00:17:04,916 --> 00:17:08,417
What about all the stuff you
said about hoping it works out?

338
00:17:08,486 --> 00:17:11,254
Hey, I do hope it works out.

339
00:17:11,322 --> 00:17:13,422
Right. No.

340
00:17:13,491 --> 00:17:15,925
Uh, yeah.

341
00:17:15,994 --> 00:17:18,261
I just, uh...

342
00:17:18,329 --> 00:17:20,329
Emma. You know what?

343
00:17:20,365 --> 00:17:23,499
I got some paperwork I got to
file down at the courthouse.

344
00:17:23,535 --> 00:17:28,504
So if I don't see you,
Merry Christmas.

345
00:17:30,341 --> 00:17:32,341
Yeah, Merry Christmas.

346
00:17:34,245 --> 00:17:38,514
That's right, we'll be taking the depositions
for the Simmons case right here in office.

347
00:17:38,550 --> 00:17:40,082
Yeah, it's a pretty big case

348
00:17:40,151 --> 00:17:42,685
so we'll probably need
the stenographer all day.

349
00:17:44,155 --> 00:17:47,390
Um, no, they're driving down
from Concord.

350
00:17:47,425 --> 00:17:50,359
I'll confirm the time
but we'll be starting early.

351
00:17:50,395 --> 00:17:52,295
Okay. Great. Thanks.

352
00:17:52,330 --> 00:17:54,330
Bye, you too.

353
00:18:11,316 --> 00:18:13,816
Of course.

354
00:18:19,123 --> 00:18:21,257
Nancy, did you know that
the ice sculpting competition

355
00:18:21,292 --> 00:18:25,461
has been a part of the Christmas
Festival for over 60 years?

356
00:18:25,496 --> 00:18:28,064
That's why it's so important to
help keep the tradition alive.

357
00:18:28,099 --> 00:18:30,800
How much do you need to raise?

358
00:18:33,404 --> 00:18:34,637
Um...

359
00:18:34,672 --> 00:18:36,973
Thank you.

360
00:18:48,887 --> 00:18:51,988
And Westford sponsored the first
competition over 60 years ago.

361
00:18:52,056 --> 00:18:54,223
Uh-huh. Could you hold this please?

362
00:18:54,259 --> 00:18:55,992
Which is why I'm asking
everyone in town

363
00:18:56,060 --> 00:18:57,460
just to give what they can.

364
00:18:57,495 --> 00:18:59,829
So you want a donation?

365
00:19:17,087 --> 00:19:18,453
$20,000?

366
00:19:18,522 --> 00:19:19,855
Okay, I know it's a lot

367
00:19:19,890 --> 00:19:21,570
but I get the five grand
from Town Council.

368
00:19:21,594 --> 00:19:24,726
Emma, new snow tires are a lot,
this is a fortune.

369
00:19:24,762 --> 00:19:26,602
But I think if I could
just get their attention

370
00:19:26,626 --> 00:19:28,130
the whole town will get on board.

371
00:19:28,198 --> 00:19:30,065
What do you have in mind?

372
00:19:30,100 --> 00:19:32,734
Didn't you set up
a JumpFunder for the school

373
00:19:32,770 --> 00:19:35,070
to raise money for
playground equipment?

374
00:19:35,105 --> 00:19:36,939
You want me to show you
how to do that

375
00:19:36,974 --> 00:19:38,334
for the ice sculpting competition?

376
00:19:38,375 --> 00:19:39,975
I'd be your best friend forever.

377
00:19:40,044 --> 00:19:42,277
That's all I needed to hear.

378
00:19:42,313 --> 00:19:44,346
The lunch rush is almost over.

379
00:19:44,381 --> 00:19:46,461
How about I talk you through it
tonight on the phone?

380
00:19:46,485 --> 00:19:47,883
You're the best. Thank you.

381
00:19:47,918 --> 00:19:50,185
You know, even if you
raise the money,

382
00:19:50,220 --> 00:19:53,021
the town already knows the
competition's been cancelled.

383
00:19:53,057 --> 00:19:54,737
How are you going to
get anyone to sign up?

384
00:19:54,761 --> 00:19:56,725
I have one idea.

385
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,760
You always do.

386
00:20:04,101 --> 00:20:05,221
So, how'd you and Emma meet?

387
00:20:08,472 --> 00:20:10,038
She likes to smell
our Christmas trees,

388
00:20:10,074 --> 00:20:12,207
she was hanging around the lot,
we started talking.

389
00:20:12,242 --> 00:20:14,409
She's big into Christmas,
I knew I liked her.

390
00:20:14,445 --> 00:20:16,125
Yeah, you like everybody
this time of year.

391
00:20:16,149 --> 00:20:19,414
Yeah, even my old pal Ebenezer.

392
00:20:19,450 --> 00:20:21,010
So, when are you going to
see her again?

393
00:20:21,034 --> 00:20:22,517
How can I see her again

394
00:20:22,553 --> 00:20:24,233
when I haven't seen her
for the first time?

395
00:20:24,257 --> 00:20:26,021
Okay. Okay. I'm sorry.

396
00:20:26,056 --> 00:20:28,390
When are you going to see her
for the first time?

397
00:20:28,425 --> 00:20:30,258
I'm not.

398
00:20:30,294 --> 00:20:32,260
What? Why not?

399
00:20:32,296 --> 00:20:36,064
Here's this very pleasant,
very attractive young woman

400
00:20:36,100 --> 00:20:37,566
who I personally think

401
00:20:37,601 --> 00:20:39,568
would be a good influence
on my best friend.

402
00:20:39,603 --> 00:20:42,070
Especially considering
the circumstances.

403
00:20:42,106 --> 00:20:44,039
There are no circumstances.

404
00:20:44,074 --> 00:20:45,907
Oh, come on, Nick!

405
00:20:45,943 --> 00:20:48,076
It's been almost a year
since you and Tara broke up.

406
00:20:48,112 --> 00:20:49,511
It's time to get back out there.

407
00:20:49,546 --> 00:20:52,381
Oh, yeah. What are you,
my social director now?

408
00:20:52,416 --> 00:20:55,450
I'm talking about Christmas. You
know, all is merry and bright?

409
00:20:55,519 --> 00:20:57,753
Look, I appreciate what you're
trying to do, Lonny.

410
00:20:57,788 --> 00:21:00,922
Okay? And, you know, you're right.

411
00:21:00,958 --> 00:21:02,758
Emma's great.

412
00:21:02,793 --> 00:21:04,693
You should hear the way
she talks about...

413
00:21:04,728 --> 00:21:06,128
saving the sculpting competition.

414
00:21:06,196 --> 00:21:08,530
Well, that's something
you guys have in common.

415
00:21:08,565 --> 00:21:10,098
I don't know.

416
00:21:10,167 --> 00:21:11,433
It's just...

417
00:21:11,502 --> 00:21:13,001
bad timing.

418
00:21:13,037 --> 00:21:15,203
It's been a year, buddy.

419
00:21:15,239 --> 00:21:17,239
You got to get back in the game.

420
00:21:34,692 --> 00:21:37,392
I know it's asking a lot, Dad,
but I could really use the help.

421
00:21:37,428 --> 00:21:39,161
If you wouldn't mind
getting the word out?

422
00:21:39,196 --> 00:21:41,263
Maybe asking
some of your old buddies,

423
00:21:41,331 --> 00:21:42,698
tell them what's going on.

424
00:21:42,733 --> 00:21:44,366
Absolutely, honey.

425
00:21:44,401 --> 00:21:45,667
Anything I can do.

426
00:21:45,703 --> 00:21:47,235
Thank you.

427
00:21:47,271 --> 00:21:49,771
Saving the competition
won't mean a thing

428
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,540
if I don't get anyone to sign up.

429
00:21:51,575 --> 00:21:53,909
I've known these sculpting folks
forever, believe me,

430
00:21:53,944 --> 00:21:57,045
they were just as disappointed
as we are that it was cancelled.

431
00:21:59,450 --> 00:22:01,683
The thing is though...

432
00:22:01,719 --> 00:22:05,087
The thing is can I really
raise that much money in time?

433
00:22:05,155 --> 00:22:07,222
First thing they're going to ask.

434
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,761
When you were teaching me to sculpt

435
00:22:12,830 --> 00:22:15,397
you used to tell me to keep
my mind on the big picture

436
00:22:15,432 --> 00:22:18,900
but my eyes on each little cut.

437
00:22:18,936 --> 00:22:21,236
That's what I'm trying to do now.

438
00:22:21,271 --> 00:22:23,271
That works for me.

439
00:22:24,608 --> 00:22:26,408
You got this.

440
00:22:26,443 --> 00:22:28,210
I believe in you.

441
00:22:28,245 --> 00:22:30,245
Thanks, Dad.

442
00:22:34,651 --> 00:22:36,651
Yeah, it went up on JumpFunder
this morning, Sarah,

443
00:22:36,675 --> 00:22:37,753
it looks great.

444
00:22:37,821 --> 00:22:40,155
Thank you for all your help
last night.

445
00:22:40,190 --> 00:22:41,323
No, not yet.

446
00:22:41,358 --> 00:22:42,824
But there's still time,

447
00:22:42,860 --> 00:22:45,427
I'm sure the contributions
start rolling in.

448
00:22:50,701 --> 00:22:52,100
Season's Greetings.

449
00:22:52,169 --> 00:22:53,535
Christmas cookie latte.

450
00:22:53,570 --> 00:22:55,170
Aw, Emma, thank you.

451
00:22:55,205 --> 00:22:56,505
It's the least I could do

452
00:22:56,540 --> 00:22:58,573
after being gone
for so long yesterday.

453
00:22:58,609 --> 00:23:00,242
Oh, all is forgiven.

454
00:23:00,277 --> 00:23:02,811
The thing is there's just
so much going on right now

455
00:23:02,846 --> 00:23:05,347
I feel like I'm being pulled
in 10 different directions.

456
00:23:05,382 --> 00:23:08,250
I know, I have barely started
my Christmas shopping.

457
00:23:08,318 --> 00:23:10,638
And with the Christmas Festival
coming up and everything...

458
00:23:10,662 --> 00:23:13,296
Well, we'll muddle through somehow.

459
00:23:14,591 --> 00:23:17,058
Speaking of muddling through,
you'll appreciate this.

460
00:23:17,094 --> 00:23:18,860
Oh, sorry.

461
00:23:18,896 --> 00:23:20,473
I almost forgot to tell you
while you were out yesterday.

462
00:23:20,497 --> 00:23:22,397
They called from Concord
about the Simmons case.

463
00:23:22,432 --> 00:23:24,065
Good, I need to
confirm the stenographer.

464
00:23:24,101 --> 00:23:26,301
What time are they going to be
here for the depositions?

465
00:23:26,325 --> 00:23:28,970
They can't. Opposing counsel
slipped on some ice

466
00:23:29,006 --> 00:23:32,340
and has twisted her ankle and,
I mean, she'll be fine,

467
00:23:32,376 --> 00:23:34,676
but she's requested
that we come there instead.

468
00:23:34,711 --> 00:23:36,978
And, you know,
I'd rather not delay this.

469
00:23:37,014 --> 00:23:39,915
So I said, "No problem."

470
00:23:39,983 --> 00:23:42,851
So you're going to drive
to the capital next week?

471
00:23:42,886 --> 00:23:45,554
We get to drive to the capital
together.

472
00:23:45,589 --> 00:23:46,689
What?!

473
00:23:46,724 --> 00:23:49,858
You've done all the heavy lifting
with this case, you know the issues,

474
00:23:50,394 --> 00:23:52,928
you should be the one
asking the questions.

475
00:23:52,996 --> 00:23:55,096
I, um...

476
00:23:55,165 --> 00:23:57,032
Wow. I know, right?

477
00:23:57,067 --> 00:23:58,867
It's a big step
but I think you're ready.

478
00:23:58,902 --> 00:24:00,735
So we'll be gone
for two days next week?

479
00:24:00,804 --> 00:24:01,804
Is that a problem?

480
00:24:01,839 --> 00:24:05,073
No. Um, no, no problem.

481
00:24:05,142 --> 00:24:07,209
I just thought maybe with
everything going on here

482
00:24:07,244 --> 00:24:09,578
I should stick around.

483
00:24:09,646 --> 00:24:12,126
Honey, I think Westford can get
along without you for two days.

484
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,207
It's not even making a dent.

485
00:24:33,276 --> 00:24:35,042
<i>Emma, these things take time.</i>

486
00:24:35,111 --> 00:24:37,979
Yeah, well I just found out I
have less time than I thought.

487
00:24:38,014 --> 00:24:39,480
What do you mean?

488
00:24:39,516 --> 00:24:41,282
<i>My mom wants me to
handle the depositions</i>

489
00:24:41,317 --> 00:24:42,817
on one of our cases,

490
00:24:42,852 --> 00:24:45,520
so I'll be in the capital
for two days next week.

491
00:24:45,555 --> 00:24:47,788
But that's when the festival starts.

492
00:24:47,824 --> 00:24:48,789
<i>I know.</i>

493
00:24:48,825 --> 00:24:50,391
So I need to make sure

494
00:24:50,460 --> 00:24:52,460
a lot more people know about
the campaign and fast.

495
00:24:52,484 --> 00:24:54,128
<i>How are you going to do that?</i>

496
00:24:54,163 --> 00:24:55,696
Go straight to the source.

497
00:24:55,765 --> 00:24:57,832
Sounds like a plan.

498
00:25:05,341 --> 00:25:07,141
Please tell me you're not here
for more money,

499
00:25:07,165 --> 00:25:09,332
I've squeezed every penny I can
from my budget.

500
00:25:09,367 --> 00:25:11,379
I just have one tiny favour.

501
00:25:11,447 --> 00:25:13,147
What's that?

502
00:25:13,182 --> 00:25:16,817
People all over the country look
at Westford's Christmas website.

503
00:25:16,853 --> 00:25:18,653
I think if you linked it
to my campaign page

504
00:25:18,688 --> 00:25:21,522
we might have a better chance
to raise the money in time.

505
00:25:21,558 --> 00:25:24,625
Emma, when I brought this up
with the rest of the council

506
00:25:24,661 --> 00:25:26,193
everybody talked about

507
00:25:26,260 --> 00:25:28,140
all of their fond memories
from the competition.

508
00:25:28,164 --> 00:25:29,830
Well, that's great.

509
00:25:29,866 --> 00:25:31,706
But the truth is,
they're a little worried too.

510
00:25:31,730 --> 00:25:33,367
What do you mean?

511
00:25:33,436 --> 00:25:35,959
They don't want to get
the town's hopes up that we

512
00:25:35,983 --> 00:25:38,506
can bring the competition
back and then have it...

513
00:25:38,541 --> 00:25:39,807
well, have it not work out.

514
00:25:39,842 --> 00:25:42,376
It's Christmas time.

515
00:25:42,445 --> 00:25:44,679
The last thing we want to do
is disappoint anybody.

516
00:25:45,982 --> 00:25:48,816
You're right, Harvey,
it is Christmas.

517
00:25:48,851 --> 00:25:51,419
The time when miracles
really do happen.

518
00:25:51,454 --> 00:25:54,989
And who knows, maybe we can make
our own little Christmas miracle

519
00:25:55,024 --> 00:25:57,158
happen right here in Westford.

520
00:25:58,492 --> 00:26:00,172
Well, you definitely
have a way with words.

521
00:26:00,196 --> 00:26:02,076
Maybe you can come and
work with us at the town.

522
00:26:02,100 --> 00:26:04,619
We've got some other miracles
that we could use some help with.

523
00:26:04,643 --> 00:26:06,810
Is that a yes?

524
00:26:09,105 --> 00:26:12,173
I never wanted to cancel the
competition in the first place.

525
00:26:12,208 --> 00:26:13,507
I'll get you the link.

526
00:26:13,543 --> 00:26:15,543
Thank you, Harvey.

527
00:26:50,745 --> 00:26:52,512
Hi. Emma.

528
00:26:52,581 --> 00:26:54,647
Ms. Baxter, hi.

529
00:26:54,683 --> 00:26:55,949
I didn't know you worked here.

530
00:26:55,984 --> 00:26:57,684
Oh, I volunteer
a couple of days a week.

531
00:26:57,752 --> 00:26:59,352
Gets me out of the house
since I retired.

532
00:26:59,376 --> 00:27:01,216
Oh, by the way, I have
a call in to the college

533
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,257
about setting up the endowment
in your husband's name.

534
00:27:04,292 --> 00:27:05,492
I'm sure that they'll love it.

535
00:27:05,527 --> 00:27:06,860
Oh, I hope so.

536
00:27:06,928 --> 00:27:08,528
But, tell me,
what brings you here today?

537
00:27:08,552 --> 00:27:10,864
Oh, I saw on the museum's website

538
00:27:10,932 --> 00:27:12,332
you have some old photographs

539
00:27:12,367 --> 00:27:14,300
from past ice sculpting competitions.

540
00:27:14,336 --> 00:27:15,276
Uh huh.

541
00:27:15,303 --> 00:27:16,383
Could I maybe look at them?

542
00:27:16,407 --> 00:27:18,974
Right this way. Oh, great.

543
00:27:20,675 --> 00:27:23,076
I've been watching them
carve ice since I was a girl.

544
00:27:23,111 --> 00:27:25,945
Oh, it never ceases to amaze me.

545
00:27:25,981 --> 00:27:27,480
Shame it all has to end.

546
00:27:27,515 --> 00:27:28,748
Actually, that's why I'm here.

547
00:27:28,783 --> 00:27:30,817
To try and keep that from happening.

548
00:27:30,852 --> 00:27:33,419
But I thought Harvey'd already
cancelled the competition.

549
00:27:33,455 --> 00:27:34,935
Well, if I can raise the money
in time

550
00:27:34,959 --> 00:27:36,356
he'll put it back in the festival.

551
00:27:36,424 --> 00:27:38,424
I thought maybe some of
these old photographs

552
00:27:38,460 --> 00:27:41,294
might help remind people of
what a great tradition it is.

553
00:27:42,631 --> 00:27:44,597
You're welcome to whatever you need.

554
00:27:48,937 --> 00:27:50,737
Our client, Miss Simmons,

555
00:27:50,772 --> 00:27:54,440
received notice that her car was
part of a manufacturer recall.

556
00:27:54,476 --> 00:27:56,356
But when she took it in
the dealership said that

557
00:27:56,380 --> 00:27:58,900
they were too busy and asked her
to bring it back the next week.

558
00:27:58,924 --> 00:27:59,946
Be sure when you ask that

559
00:27:59,981 --> 00:28:03,416
they specify in their answer
what day of the week.

560
00:28:03,451 --> 00:28:05,151
Because Monday was a holiday

561
00:28:05,186 --> 00:28:07,487
and Miss Simmons couldn't
come back until Tuesday.

562
00:28:07,522 --> 00:28:09,522
- Good.
- Great.

563
00:28:11,059 --> 00:28:12,792
I don't know,

564
00:28:12,827 --> 00:28:15,267
I guess I just feel guilty for
not telling her what I'm doing.

565
00:28:15,291 --> 00:28:16,562
Then tell her.

566
00:28:16,598 --> 00:28:19,332
Your mom knows how much you've
always loved ice sculpting.

567
00:28:19,385 --> 00:28:20,785
Yeah, well I can love it all I want

568
00:28:20,809 --> 00:28:23,303
as long as the law
always comes first.

569
00:28:23,338 --> 00:28:25,338
And that's why you went to
school for three years

570
00:28:25,407 --> 00:28:27,340
to become a lawyer, isn't it?

571
00:28:27,409 --> 00:28:29,509
That was the plan.

572
00:28:29,577 --> 00:28:31,644
You okay?

573
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,847
Yeah. No. I just, um...

574
00:28:34,916 --> 00:28:37,850
the whole thing with raising
money for the competition.

575
00:28:37,919 --> 00:28:40,153
Actually, I should check to see if...

576
00:28:40,221 --> 00:28:41,754
No, what you should do

577
00:28:41,790 --> 00:28:44,457
is stop checking contributions
every two minutes.

578
00:28:44,492 --> 00:28:46,793
I brought you along to help me with
my Christmas shopping, remember?

579
00:28:46,828 --> 00:28:49,228
You're right.

580
00:29:13,588 --> 00:29:15,955
Sarah, you said we were
going Christmas shopping.

581
00:29:15,991 --> 00:29:18,825
We are. We're shopping
for a Christmas tree.

582
00:29:18,893 --> 00:29:20,593
Who's Nick?

583
00:29:20,628 --> 00:29:23,997
Some guy I met in town, he has a
Christmas tree lot and I asked...

584
00:29:24,065 --> 00:29:25,598
You know what? Never mind.

585
00:29:25,633 --> 00:29:27,467
Can we just go somewhere else please?

586
00:29:27,502 --> 00:29:30,303
No way. Look at this place.

587
00:29:30,338 --> 00:29:33,573
I came here to get a tree and
that's what I intend to do.

588
00:29:49,290 --> 00:29:50,256
Good choice.

589
00:29:50,291 --> 00:29:51,958
Excuse me?

590
00:29:51,993 --> 00:29:54,274
The Fraser Fir is our most
popular tree this time of year.

591
00:29:56,164 --> 00:29:58,898
Do you, uh, have someone to
help you carry it to the car?

592
00:29:58,933 --> 00:30:02,502
I was just admiring it, it's
way too big for my apartment.

593
00:30:02,570 --> 00:30:04,537
Where I live alone.

594
00:30:24,225 --> 00:30:26,626
So this is where
your brother hides out.

595
00:30:32,734 --> 00:30:35,034
Gotcha.

596
00:30:37,272 --> 00:30:38,237
Excuse me.

597
00:30:39,641 --> 00:30:42,275
Hello? Nick's brother?

598
00:30:43,878 --> 00:30:45,878
Sorry, I don't know your name.

599
00:30:47,282 --> 00:30:49,282
Hello?

600
00:30:50,652 --> 00:30:53,152
Nick?

601
00:30:54,322 --> 00:30:56,489
Hi.

602
00:31:01,696 --> 00:31:03,529
Let me guess,
you don't have a brother.

603
00:31:03,565 --> 00:31:05,531
Uh...

604
00:31:05,567 --> 00:31:07,266
No.

605
00:31:07,302 --> 00:31:10,636
And the sculptures outside
and in town, those are yours?

606
00:31:10,705 --> 00:31:13,106
Uh huh.

607
00:31:13,141 --> 00:31:15,274
Unbelievable.

608
00:31:17,112 --> 00:31:19,278
Hey, Emma, wait.

609
00:31:20,715 --> 00:31:22,815
Emma, just... can you just
wait a second?

610
00:31:22,884 --> 00:31:25,785
I'm sorry I told you about
my fictitious brother.

611
00:31:25,820 --> 00:31:27,086
But it's a reflex.

612
00:31:27,122 --> 00:31:28,521
It's what I tell everybody.

613
00:31:28,556 --> 00:31:30,356
What? Why?

614
00:31:30,391 --> 00:31:33,192
It's a...

615
00:31:33,228 --> 00:31:35,261
it's a long and
very predictable story.

616
00:31:35,294 --> 00:31:36,574
And having an antisocial brother

617
00:31:36,598 --> 00:31:38,598
just saves everybody a lot of time.

618
00:31:41,035 --> 00:31:42,535
But your work is amazing.

619
00:31:42,570 --> 00:31:45,037
And people should know
that you're the artist.

620
00:31:45,073 --> 00:31:47,073
You think I'm an artist?

621
00:31:48,576 --> 00:31:50,576
Yes, of course.

622
00:31:50,612 --> 00:31:53,946
I mean, anybody could see that
if you would let them.

623
00:31:53,982 --> 00:31:56,349
But, I mean,

624
00:31:56,384 --> 00:31:58,384
that doesn't make it okay
that you wouldn't help me

625
00:31:58,419 --> 00:32:01,454
when I asked for you to
save the competition with me.

626
00:32:01,523 --> 00:32:03,189
I'm sorry about that too,

627
00:32:03,224 --> 00:32:05,344
but when I heard you talking
about the JumpFunder page

628
00:32:05,368 --> 00:32:07,960
I knew I had to do something to help.

629
00:32:08,029 --> 00:32:11,564
I didn't... I didn't
tell you about that.

630
00:32:11,599 --> 00:32:14,467
Well, actually, you were getting
coffee, that place in the park,

631
00:32:14,536 --> 00:32:16,269
I was in line just right behind you.

632
00:32:16,304 --> 00:32:18,037
Oh, you were eavesdropping?

633
00:32:18,072 --> 00:32:21,240
Yeah, now, see,
when you say it like that...

634
00:32:21,276 --> 00:32:22,942
Okay, you know what?

635
00:32:22,977 --> 00:32:25,137
Never mind. I've got way too
much on my plate right now

636
00:32:25,161 --> 00:32:26,127
to be doing this.

637
00:32:26,162 --> 00:32:26,946
So.

638
00:32:27,015 --> 00:32:27,955
So do I.

639
00:32:28,016 --> 00:32:28,956
Great. So we're done.

640
00:32:29,017 --> 00:32:29,957
We are so done.

641
00:32:30,018 --> 00:32:32,451
Except...

642
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,588
you might want this.

643
00:32:35,623 --> 00:32:37,190
Frank Duvall?

644
00:32:37,225 --> 00:32:39,091
He's a friend of mine,
he owns an ice company,

645
00:32:39,127 --> 00:32:41,294
he's a big fan of ice sculpting
from way back.

646
00:32:41,362 --> 00:32:42,922
I talked to him about
what you're doing.

647
00:32:42,946 --> 00:32:44,864
You did?

648
00:32:44,899 --> 00:32:47,400
I thought maybe he could help.

649
00:32:47,435 --> 00:32:49,235
Throw it away if you want.

650
00:32:49,270 --> 00:32:51,938
Thank you for this.

651
00:32:53,608 --> 00:32:56,042
I really do think
you're very talented.

652
00:32:57,245 --> 00:32:59,011
I don't know.

653
00:32:59,047 --> 00:33:01,047
Seriously. You shouldn't hide it.

654
00:33:02,884 --> 00:33:04,217
There you are.

655
00:33:04,252 --> 00:33:05,952
Hey.

656
00:33:06,020 --> 00:33:08,421
Check out the perfect little
tree Lonny cut down for me.

657
00:33:08,456 --> 00:33:11,123
Oh. I'll meet you at the car.

658
00:33:11,192 --> 00:33:12,291
Ready? Yeah.

659
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,560
You okay?

660
00:33:17,932 --> 00:33:19,632
I don't get it.

661
00:33:19,701 --> 00:33:22,735
If he likes ice sculpting so
much, why keep it a secret?

662
00:33:22,770 --> 00:33:24,437
I don't know.

663
00:33:24,505 --> 00:33:27,673
I get the feeling it's about
more than just sculpting.

664
00:33:27,709 --> 00:33:29,375
You two seemed to hit it off.

665
00:33:29,410 --> 00:33:31,577
Yeah, right.

666
00:33:31,613 --> 00:33:33,546
No, I saw the way he looked at you.

667
00:33:33,581 --> 00:33:36,349
And I definitely picked up on a vibe.

668
00:33:36,384 --> 00:33:37,783
What?

669
00:33:37,852 --> 00:33:39,719
Yeah, right. There was no vibe.

670
00:33:39,754 --> 00:33:41,087
Okay, keep telling yourself that.

671
00:33:41,122 --> 00:33:42,755
No vibe!

672
00:33:42,790 --> 00:33:44,423
There was a vibe.

673
00:33:44,459 --> 00:33:47,093
You know what?

674
00:33:47,128 --> 00:33:48,561
Good luck with that.

675
00:33:48,596 --> 00:33:50,363
Emma! See ya.

676
00:33:50,398 --> 00:33:51,697
Get back here and help me!

677
00:33:51,733 --> 00:33:53,833
Emma!

678
00:34:18,765 --> 00:34:20,265
Nick told me you were coming by

679
00:34:20,334 --> 00:34:22,214
and that I should listen
to what you have to say

680
00:34:22,238 --> 00:34:24,869
because saving this
competition's important to you.

681
00:34:24,905 --> 00:34:26,571
He said all that?

682
00:34:26,606 --> 00:34:30,375
But what he didn't say is why.

683
00:34:33,714 --> 00:34:37,615
My dad started teaching me how
to sculpt when I was a little girl.

684
00:34:39,419 --> 00:34:42,220
He and I were in the competition
for as long as I can remember.

685
00:34:44,091 --> 00:34:47,692
The truth is, as important as
the tradition is to the town

686
00:34:47,728 --> 00:34:51,329
I think it's just as important
to my family.

687
00:34:53,066 --> 00:34:54,766
Let me think about it.

688
00:34:54,835 --> 00:34:56,334
Great.

689
00:34:56,370 --> 00:34:59,604
Thank you.
I really appreciate it, Frank.

690
00:34:59,673 --> 00:35:00,839
And Merry Christmas.

691
00:35:00,874 --> 00:35:03,241
Merry Christmas.

692
00:35:10,183 --> 00:35:12,384
Dad, I didn't know you
were coming by today.

693
00:35:12,419 --> 00:35:13,819
I thought I'd surprise your mother.

694
00:35:13,843 --> 00:35:15,153
Take her out to lunch.

695
00:35:15,188 --> 00:35:17,655
Well, she's in the office
on a phone call,

696
00:35:17,691 --> 00:35:19,091
I'm sure she'll be out in a minute.

697
00:35:19,115 --> 00:35:21,893
In that case I shall share
some good news.

698
00:35:21,928 --> 00:35:23,661
I reached out to some old friends,

699
00:35:23,697 --> 00:35:25,430
we got six teams standing by,

700
00:35:25,499 --> 00:35:27,565
just say the word,
they'll be here to compete.

701
00:35:27,601 --> 00:35:28,733
You're amazing, Dad.

702
00:35:28,769 --> 00:35:31,002
Thanks.

703
00:35:31,037 --> 00:35:32,404
What's up?

704
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,206
Nothing.

705
00:35:35,242 --> 00:35:37,642
The festival's tomorrow and I
still haven't raised the money.

706
00:35:37,666 --> 00:35:39,244
Keep the faith.

707
00:35:39,279 --> 00:35:41,079
You never know.

708
00:35:41,114 --> 00:35:42,814
You never know what?

709
00:35:42,849 --> 00:35:47,552
I never know where I'm going to
take my beautiful wife to lunch.

710
00:35:48,555 --> 00:35:50,054
Hm.

711
00:35:50,090 --> 00:35:52,090
I'll get my coat.

712
00:35:54,628 --> 00:35:56,694
It ain't over 'til it's over.

713
00:36:12,379 --> 00:36:14,219
You know I had coffee
with Emma's friend Sarah,

714
00:36:14,243 --> 00:36:16,643
remember she was out at the farm
the other day.

715
00:36:18,251 --> 00:36:20,151
Coffee, huh? That sounds promising.

716
00:36:20,187 --> 00:36:21,152
Yeah.

717
00:36:21,188 --> 00:36:23,988
Kind of hit it off.

718
00:36:24,024 --> 00:36:27,492
I mean, with the trees and all.

719
00:36:27,527 --> 00:36:30,094
Way to go, Lonny!

720
00:36:30,163 --> 00:36:31,729
Anyway, she was telling me about

721
00:36:31,765 --> 00:36:35,266
how Emma works just
a couple of blocks from here.

722
00:36:35,335 --> 00:36:37,175
At her mom's law office
over there on Riverton.

723
00:36:37,199 --> 00:36:38,236
Oh, yeah?

724
00:36:38,305 --> 00:36:40,338
Yeah.

725
00:36:40,373 --> 00:36:42,240
She seems real nice.

726
00:36:42,309 --> 00:36:45,210
Maybe you should, uh, stop by,
say hi.

727
00:36:45,245 --> 00:36:47,345
Yeah, I don't think so.

728
00:36:47,380 --> 00:36:49,180
Well, what are you going to do

729
00:36:49,216 --> 00:36:51,576
just give up on Christmas for
good because of what Tara did?

730
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,734
Let's not go there, all right?

731
00:36:57,041 --> 00:36:58,401
Whatever happened to the old Nick?

732
00:36:58,425 --> 00:37:00,225
The guy who used to like to have fun?

733
00:37:00,260 --> 00:37:04,662
And spent every night in his
barn carving little ice statues

734
00:37:04,698 --> 00:37:07,565
instead of getting on with his life.

735
00:37:11,204 --> 00:37:13,538
Look, I'm sorry, I just...

736
00:37:13,573 --> 00:37:15,707
I miss my friend.

737
00:37:17,511 --> 00:37:19,577
You're missing Christmas.

738
00:37:23,149 --> 00:37:25,183
I don't know.

739
00:37:31,091 --> 00:37:33,525
See? This is a nice change...

740
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,661
from our frostbit toes
on our way to get coffee.

741
00:37:36,696 --> 00:37:39,531
Thought I'd give you a break for
Christmas on your first day off.

742
00:37:39,566 --> 00:37:41,666
Speaking of.
You don't look very festive.

743
00:37:43,503 --> 00:37:45,803
I don't feel very festive.

744
00:37:45,839 --> 00:37:47,559
I didn't raise the money
for the competition

745
00:37:47,583 --> 00:37:49,316
and today's the first day
of the festival,

746
00:37:49,351 --> 00:37:51,075
so we're out of time.

747
00:37:51,144 --> 00:37:53,211
Oh, no. How close did you get?

748
00:37:53,246 --> 00:37:54,766
It doesn't matter,
it's all or nothing.

749
00:37:54,790 --> 00:37:56,047
I mean, you know,

750
00:37:56,082 --> 00:37:58,650
you don't raise your goal then
you don't get any of the money.

751
00:37:58,685 --> 00:38:00,385
What are you doing?

752
00:38:00,420 --> 00:38:02,086
I'd still like to know.

753
00:38:02,155 --> 00:38:03,354
Sarah, come on.

754
00:38:03,390 --> 00:38:04,790
When was the last time you checked?

755
00:38:04,814 --> 00:38:05,754
Does it matter?

756
00:38:05,787 --> 00:38:06,558
Emma.

757
00:38:06,626 --> 00:38:07,692
Yes?

758
00:38:07,727 --> 00:38:10,628
Look.

759
00:38:12,399 --> 00:38:14,232
An anonymous donor?

760
00:38:14,301 --> 00:38:16,000
For almost $10,000!

761
00:38:16,036 --> 00:38:17,402
He did it.

762
00:38:17,470 --> 00:38:18,736
Frank Duvall did it!

763
00:38:18,805 --> 00:38:19,805
You did it!

764
00:38:19,839 --> 00:38:22,540
We did it!

765
00:38:24,878 --> 00:38:26,878
Little more volume please.

766
00:38:26,913 --> 00:38:30,214
Um, Merry Christmas and
God bless us, everyone.

767
00:38:30,250 --> 00:38:32,951
Testing, one, two, testing.

768
00:38:32,986 --> 00:38:34,619
One, two.

769
00:38:34,654 --> 00:38:36,187
Harvey! Harvey, we got the money!

770
00:38:36,222 --> 00:38:37,188
We did it!

771
00:38:37,223 --> 00:38:38,656
15?!

772
00:38:38,692 --> 00:38:39,857
$15,000?

773
00:38:39,893 --> 00:38:41,459
I know, it's unbelievable!

774
00:38:41,494 --> 00:38:43,361
It sounds like you got your miracle!

775
00:38:43,396 --> 00:38:45,356
We have to get ready,
tell everybody to set it up.

776
00:38:45,380 --> 00:38:46,364
Absolutely.

777
00:38:46,399 --> 00:38:48,599
But where are we going to find
teams at the last minute?

778
00:38:48,623 --> 00:38:50,969
Don't worry, my dad's got
six teams standing by,

779
00:38:51,004 --> 00:38:53,304
seven including us.

780
00:38:53,340 --> 00:38:54,872
You did it, Emma.

781
00:38:54,908 --> 00:38:57,041
You did it.

782
00:38:57,077 --> 00:38:58,409
Yes.

783
00:38:58,478 --> 00:39:00,812
The ice sculpting competition
is back!

784
00:39:00,847 --> 00:39:02,180
Merry Christmas.

785
00:39:02,215 --> 00:39:04,816
Merry Christmas.

786
00:39:04,851 --> 00:39:06,951
Wow.

787
00:39:10,190 --> 00:39:11,155
Nick!

788
00:39:11,191 --> 00:39:12,790
We did it.

789
00:39:12,826 --> 00:39:14,786
We raised the money and the
competition's back on.

790
00:39:14,810 --> 00:39:16,227
Oh.

791
00:39:16,296 --> 00:39:17,328
Sorry.

792
00:39:17,364 --> 00:39:19,964
Wow. That's... that's amazing.

793
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:20,965
Yeah.

794
00:39:21,001 --> 00:39:22,233
Yeah. Way to go, Emma.

795
00:39:22,302 --> 00:39:23,782
Congratulations.
I owe it all to Nick.

796
00:39:23,806 --> 00:39:25,069
What?

797
00:39:25,138 --> 00:39:26,778
Yeah. I mean,
you sent me to Frank Duvall,

798
00:39:26,802 --> 00:39:28,272
I told him what we needed

799
00:39:28,308 --> 00:39:30,228
and he made a donation
for the rest of the money.

800
00:39:30,276 --> 00:39:31,776
Wow. Yeah.

801
00:39:31,811 --> 00:39:33,651
Whoa. I always knew Frank
was a good guy but...

802
00:39:33,675 --> 00:39:35,179
No, you are the great guy.

803
00:39:35,215 --> 00:39:38,349
None of this would've happened
without your help.

804
00:39:38,385 --> 00:39:41,185
Honestly, thank you.

805
00:39:41,221 --> 00:39:43,287
I'm glad it worked out.

806
00:39:43,323 --> 00:39:45,690
Well, um...

807
00:39:45,725 --> 00:39:49,560
you know, there are
seven teams lined up.

808
00:39:49,629 --> 00:39:53,498
Which means there's still room
for one more.

809
00:39:53,533 --> 00:39:57,502
Yeah, no, Emma, it gets
really busy around here

810
00:39:57,537 --> 00:39:59,470
around Christmas. You know?

811
00:39:59,506 --> 00:40:02,106
What I do I know
about big sculptures?

812
00:40:04,511 --> 00:40:06,644
Anyway, you have fun.

813
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,680
And, uh, congratulations.

814
00:40:09,683 --> 00:40:11,015
Thanks. Excuse me.

815
00:40:11,051 --> 00:40:13,317
Hey. I'll see you later.

816
00:40:13,353 --> 00:40:15,286
Yeah.

817
00:40:16,956 --> 00:40:19,724
Look, Nick should be talking
to you about this, not me,

818
00:40:19,793 --> 00:40:21,726
but I know him.

819
00:40:21,755 --> 00:40:23,235
And I can tell how much he likes you.

820
00:40:23,259 --> 00:40:26,597
Hm. He's got a funny way
of showing it.

821
00:40:26,633 --> 00:40:28,466
Yeah, well that's what people do

822
00:40:28,501 --> 00:40:31,202
when they get their heart ripped
out by someone they care about,

823
00:40:31,271 --> 00:40:33,638
especially when it happens
at Christmas.

824
00:40:35,175 --> 00:40:36,507
What?

825
00:40:36,543 --> 00:40:39,477
Just, uh...

826
00:40:39,512 --> 00:40:41,879
Hang in there.

827
00:41:08,842 --> 00:41:10,174
Hi, it's Emma Parkers.

828
00:41:10,210 --> 00:41:12,543
Is Frank in?

829
00:41:12,612 --> 00:41:14,846
Oh, no. Could I leave a message?

830
00:41:14,881 --> 00:41:16,514
Yeah. Could you just let him know

831
00:41:16,549 --> 00:41:18,950
I called to thank him
for his generous contribution?

832
00:41:20,854 --> 00:41:22,754
No, he'll know what I mean.

833
00:41:22,789 --> 00:41:24,122
Thanks. You too.

834
00:41:24,157 --> 00:41:26,457
Merry Christmas.

835
00:41:57,895 --> 00:41:59,095
Hello.

836
00:41:59,730 --> 00:42:01,364
Hello.

837
00:42:01,399 --> 00:42:02,898
Thought I might find you here.

838
00:42:02,934 --> 00:42:05,101
You know, it helps me think.

839
00:42:06,904 --> 00:42:08,938
Same here.

840
00:42:10,586 --> 00:42:12,586
I thought about what you said
about the competition

841
00:42:12,610 --> 00:42:14,910
and how it's different
because of the size.

842
00:42:14,946 --> 00:42:15,911
Yeah.

843
00:42:15,947 --> 00:42:17,279
But it's not.

844
00:42:17,348 --> 00:42:19,081
You shouldn't let it
stop you from competing

845
00:42:19,117 --> 00:42:20,677
if it's something
you really want to do.

846
00:42:20,701 --> 00:42:22,518
Emma, look, it's not...

847
00:42:22,553 --> 00:42:25,421
I mean, you shouldn't
let anything stop you,

848
00:42:25,456 --> 00:42:28,724
really, from anything you care about.

849
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:32,895
When you find something that you
can really put your heart into,

850
00:42:32,930 --> 00:42:35,464
something that you really love,

851
00:42:35,533 --> 00:42:39,602
you should hang on to it
as tight as you can.

852
00:42:41,439 --> 00:42:43,272
Sometimes you got to know
when to let go.

853
00:42:43,307 --> 00:42:44,874
What do you mean?

854
00:42:44,909 --> 00:42:47,710
Okay. Um...

855
00:42:47,745 --> 00:42:49,111
it's kind of like you.

856
00:42:49,180 --> 00:42:51,847
I started doing this
when I was pretty young.

857
00:42:51,883 --> 00:42:54,950
And it was like, uh...

858
00:42:55,019 --> 00:42:57,753
I could do it. You know?

859
00:42:57,789 --> 00:42:59,522
The tools just fit in my hand.

860
00:42:59,557 --> 00:43:03,592
I started entering some
smaller competitions

861
00:43:03,628 --> 00:43:04,927
and...

862
00:43:04,962 --> 00:43:07,096
it's never about winning, you know.

863
00:43:07,131 --> 00:43:09,765
It's just because...
just because it was fun.

864
00:43:11,536 --> 00:43:14,670
Anyway, after a while you start
running into the same people

865
00:43:14,706 --> 00:43:17,206
and kind of get to know 'em.

866
00:43:17,241 --> 00:43:19,709
I met this girl.

867
00:43:19,744 --> 00:43:21,577
She was really nice.

868
00:43:21,612 --> 00:43:25,247
And, uh, she could work with ice too.

869
00:43:25,283 --> 00:43:27,450
You two started sculpting together?

870
00:43:27,518 --> 00:43:30,686
She's more competitive than I was.

871
00:43:30,722 --> 00:43:34,957
And started entering us
in these bigger competitions.

872
00:43:35,026 --> 00:43:37,626
We even talked about
doing this one in Westford.

873
00:43:37,695 --> 00:43:39,895
You know,
tackling the big sculptures.

874
00:43:39,931 --> 00:43:41,931
Why didn't you?

875
00:43:43,835 --> 00:43:45,534
Tara and I had been
dating three years

876
00:43:45,570 --> 00:43:47,570
and all of a sudden...

877
00:43:47,605 --> 00:43:50,339
right before Christmas

878
00:43:50,374 --> 00:43:54,043
she decided it's not working for her.

879
00:43:54,078 --> 00:43:56,278
She already had a plane ticket
to Los Angeles.

880
00:43:58,015 --> 00:44:00,616
Never saw it coming.

881
00:44:00,685 --> 00:44:02,251
Sorry.

882
00:44:02,286 --> 00:44:06,055
I haven't had much interest
in competing ever since.

883
00:44:06,090 --> 00:44:08,190
My heart's just not into it.

884
00:44:10,228 --> 00:44:14,163
Maybe you just need to find
somebody to make it fun again.

885
00:44:18,269 --> 00:44:20,269
Maybe.

886
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,776
I got a "V" chisel if you want to
take a shot at that corner.

887
00:44:26,844 --> 00:44:30,513
I think a scoop chisel
might be the way to go.

888
00:44:30,548 --> 00:44:32,948
Huh.

889
00:44:33,017 --> 00:44:35,217
Well, I got one of those too.

890
00:44:43,861 --> 00:44:45,394
Hi. Hey there.

891
00:44:45,429 --> 00:44:47,429
Almost finished.

892
00:44:47,498 --> 00:44:48,831
How was your day?

893
00:44:48,866 --> 00:44:50,506
Oh, just trying to
get everything together

894
00:44:50,530 --> 00:44:52,568
for this deposition.

895
00:44:52,603 --> 00:44:54,270
Have... have you heard from Emma?

896
00:44:54,338 --> 00:44:56,238
No. Why?

897
00:44:56,274 --> 00:44:58,354
Oh, it's just she wasn't
in the office this afternoon

898
00:44:58,378 --> 00:45:03,348
and I left a few messages,
I just haven't heard back.

899
00:45:04,081 --> 00:45:05,548
This is an important case.

900
00:45:05,583 --> 00:45:07,183
I'm sure she's on top of it.

901
00:45:07,218 --> 00:45:09,185
I don't know.

902
00:45:09,220 --> 00:45:12,221
Her head seems to be
somewhere else half the time.

903
00:45:12,256 --> 00:45:14,190
We barely seem to talk anymore.

904
00:45:14,225 --> 00:45:16,058
Well...

905
00:45:16,093 --> 00:45:18,160
two of you have a lot
on your plate right now.

906
00:45:19,864 --> 00:45:23,499
My advice is for the both of you
to throttle back a little.

907
00:45:26,704 --> 00:45:28,103
Yeah. Maybe you're right.

908
00:45:28,172 --> 00:45:31,607
Christmas Festival starts tonight.

909
00:45:31,676 --> 00:45:35,377
We'll meet Emma there,
enjoy the festivities...

910
00:45:35,413 --> 00:45:36,879
together.

911
00:45:36,914 --> 00:45:40,149
And everything will be fine.

912
00:45:40,184 --> 00:45:41,851
Oh.

913
00:45:43,754 --> 00:45:45,855
Yeah.

914
00:45:55,366 --> 00:45:57,233
We make a pretty good team.

915
00:45:58,402 --> 00:46:00,536
Oh.

916
00:46:03,007 --> 00:46:04,306
Oh no.

917
00:46:04,342 --> 00:46:05,307
I got to go.

918
00:46:05,343 --> 00:46:06,542
What's wrong?

919
00:46:06,577 --> 00:46:08,177
No, nothing, I just...

920
00:46:08,212 --> 00:46:10,679
I should be at work, we've got
this big case coming up

921
00:46:10,715 --> 00:46:12,514
and I haven't even finished.

922
00:46:12,550 --> 00:46:14,850
And my parents want me

923
00:46:14,886 --> 00:46:17,920
to meet them at the
Christmas Festival tonight.

924
00:46:17,989 --> 00:46:19,154
Maybe I'll see you there.

925
00:46:19,190 --> 00:46:20,556
Not if I don't get my work done.

926
00:46:20,591 --> 00:46:23,092
Well then, get out of here,
get to work.

927
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,661
All right. Thanks for...

928
00:46:25,696 --> 00:46:27,496
thanks for letting me chip.

929
00:46:27,531 --> 00:46:29,665
It's my pleasure.

930
00:46:29,700 --> 00:46:31,834
All right. I'm out.

931
00:46:43,647 --> 00:46:46,381
Beautiful!

932
00:46:46,417 --> 00:46:49,251
Oh, my gosh. This is gorgeous.

933
00:46:49,286 --> 00:46:51,286
Oh, look at these.

934
00:46:51,322 --> 00:46:53,789
Very nice.

935
00:46:53,824 --> 00:46:55,791
I'm going to get
one of these for you.

936
00:46:55,826 --> 00:46:57,259
Yes, you are.

937
00:46:57,294 --> 00:46:59,194
Can you see her? No.

938
00:46:59,229 --> 00:47:00,729
Good evening, everyone!

939
00:47:00,764 --> 00:47:02,230
Welcome to the first night

940
00:47:02,266 --> 00:47:05,033
of Westford's annual
Christmas Festival!

941
00:47:08,238 --> 00:47:11,073
I'm going to give her a call.
Sounds good, yeah.

942
00:47:16,413 --> 00:47:17,713
Hi, Mom.

943
00:47:17,748 --> 00:47:20,716
Hey. What...

944
00:47:20,751 --> 00:47:22,784
Oh, Emma,
you don't have to be working

945
00:47:22,820 --> 00:47:25,887
<i>on the first night of
the Christmas Festival.</i>

946
00:47:25,923 --> 00:47:27,923
I...

947
00:47:27,958 --> 00:47:30,759
Okay. Five minutes. We'll be here.

948
00:47:30,794 --> 00:47:32,761
She's at the office.

949
00:47:32,796 --> 00:47:34,441
I'm especially excited
to remind everyone

950
00:47:34,465 --> 00:47:37,966
that because of
the donations from you

951
00:47:38,035 --> 00:47:41,470
the ice sculpting competition
is part of our festival again.

952
00:47:41,538 --> 00:47:43,071
All right!

953
00:47:44,541 --> 00:47:46,208
That's great!

954
00:47:46,243 --> 00:47:48,043
It certainly is.

955
00:47:48,078 --> 00:47:50,245
Do you know what? If I know Emma,

956
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:52,481
that five minutes
is going to take an hour.

957
00:47:52,549 --> 00:47:54,549
So I'm just... I'm just
going to go get here and...

958
00:47:54,573 --> 00:47:55,733
Well, don't... You wait here.

959
00:47:55,757 --> 00:47:57,018
I'm going to go get her.

960
00:47:57,054 --> 00:47:58,353
Okay. Carol!

961
00:48:03,727 --> 00:48:05,727
Hey, I was just headed over.

962
00:48:05,763 --> 00:48:07,229
I'm sorry. Nick!

963
00:48:07,264 --> 00:48:08,430
Hi.

964
00:48:08,465 --> 00:48:11,633
Hi. Welcome.

965
00:48:11,702 --> 00:48:13,702
Yeah, Lonny told me
you worked on Riverton Street,

966
00:48:13,737 --> 00:48:16,805
your mom's law office, and I
figured, "What are the odds?"

967
00:48:16,874 --> 00:48:19,808
Right? More than one lawyer
named Parkers on the street.

968
00:48:19,877 --> 00:48:21,743
You found me.

969
00:48:21,779 --> 00:48:23,419
Yeah. Look, if you're busy
I'll come back.

970
00:48:23,443 --> 00:48:25,543
No, no, no. Come in, come in.

971
00:48:31,422 --> 00:48:34,589
It's very lawyerish.

972
00:48:39,363 --> 00:48:42,397
Uh, this seemed like a good idea
a little while ago.

973
00:48:42,433 --> 00:48:44,132
What did?

974
00:48:44,201 --> 00:48:45,534
All right.

975
00:48:45,569 --> 00:48:47,269
The thing is...

976
00:48:47,304 --> 00:48:48,824
I've been thinking about
what you said.

977
00:48:48,848 --> 00:48:50,605
And maybe you're right.

978
00:48:50,674 --> 00:48:54,543
Maybe it would be good for me to
take another shot at competing.

979
00:48:54,578 --> 00:48:58,780
And not to win, 'cause, you know,
that was never the the point of it all.

980
00:49:00,451 --> 00:49:04,686
I just want to feel
the way it used to feel

981
00:49:04,721 --> 00:49:06,755
before things got all jumbled up.

982
00:49:06,790 --> 00:49:08,557
When it was fun.

983
00:49:08,592 --> 00:49:10,592
I think that's a great idea.

984
00:49:12,196 --> 00:49:15,430
So, like you said,

985
00:49:15,466 --> 00:49:17,432
I just need to find
the right partner.

986
00:49:17,468 --> 00:49:21,102
Someone who knows big sculptures.

987
00:49:21,171 --> 00:49:23,238
Someone...

988
00:49:24,508 --> 00:49:25,508
Like you.

989
00:49:25,542 --> 00:49:27,576
I...

990
00:49:27,611 --> 00:49:29,678
You already have a partner.

991
00:49:29,713 --> 00:49:33,014
My dad and I have been sculpting
together since I was a kid.

992
00:49:35,018 --> 00:49:36,785
Sort of a tradition.

993
00:49:36,854 --> 00:49:39,087
I'm sorry.

994
00:49:39,122 --> 00:49:40,355
Hey, don't be sorry.

995
00:49:40,390 --> 00:49:42,891
I, uh, I'll be there to cheer you on.

996
00:49:42,926 --> 00:49:44,459
100%.

997
00:49:44,528 --> 00:49:46,061
Go, Emma!

998
00:49:48,365 --> 00:49:50,432
So, I should go.

999
00:49:50,501 --> 00:49:52,701
I'll walk you out.

1000
00:50:01,879 --> 00:50:03,245
I'll see you then.

1001
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,514
Okay.

1002
00:50:21,097 --> 00:50:22,530
Emma.

1003
00:50:22,599 --> 00:50:24,632
What are you doing out here so early?

1004
00:50:24,668 --> 00:50:27,602
Well, if the Parkers family team
wants to win this year

1005
00:50:27,637 --> 00:50:29,203
we better busy.

1006
00:50:29,272 --> 00:50:31,873
Yeah, I've been, uh...

1007
00:50:31,942 --> 00:50:33,841
I've been thinking about that.

1008
00:50:33,877 --> 00:50:35,510
Good. We don't have much time.

1009
00:50:35,545 --> 00:50:40,548
As much as I have loved
doing this with you, kiddo.

1010
00:50:42,385 --> 00:50:44,819
I am... snowed under with work.

1011
00:50:44,854 --> 00:50:47,855
I think you're going to have to
find a new partner this year.

1012
00:50:47,924 --> 00:50:49,791
Really?

1013
00:50:49,826 --> 00:50:51,960
But, um...

1014
00:50:51,995 --> 00:50:53,494
this is our tradition.

1015
00:50:53,530 --> 00:50:56,531
And I have... I've loved
every minute of it.

1016
00:50:56,599 --> 00:51:00,268
And I want you to carry on that
tradition with someone else,

1017
00:51:00,303 --> 00:51:02,470
someone who loves this
as much as we do.

1018
00:51:06,209 --> 00:51:08,676
But I've never done it without you.

1019
00:51:08,712 --> 00:51:12,080
Well, that's why...

1020
00:51:12,115 --> 00:51:16,017
this time around you can
make it your own.

1021
00:51:20,991 --> 00:51:22,991
That's my girl.

1022
00:51:39,709 --> 00:51:41,676
Hey, Nick!

1023
00:51:44,247 --> 00:51:46,014
Hey! Hey.

1024
00:51:46,082 --> 00:51:47,749
Isn't this crazy?

1025
00:51:47,784 --> 00:51:49,283
When I was a kid I used to think

1026
00:51:49,319 --> 00:51:52,587
this must be what
Santa's toy shop was like.

1027
00:51:52,622 --> 00:51:55,523
So much to do before Christmas.

1028
00:51:55,592 --> 00:51:57,158
So, you and your dad all set?

1029
00:51:57,193 --> 00:52:00,495
Mm, he can't do it this year.

1030
00:52:00,530 --> 00:52:01,496
Work.

1031
00:52:01,531 --> 00:52:03,331
So. Oh.

1032
00:52:03,366 --> 00:52:04,665
I'm sorry.

1033
00:52:04,701 --> 00:52:07,201
Yeah, me too.

1034
00:52:07,270 --> 00:52:08,836
So you don't have a partner?

1035
00:52:08,905 --> 00:52:11,339
Did you?

1036
00:52:11,408 --> 00:52:13,074
Did you find someone?

1037
00:52:13,109 --> 00:52:14,776
That's a lot of work. Yeah.

1038
00:52:14,811 --> 00:52:17,311
Not much time to prepare.

1039
00:52:17,347 --> 00:52:18,679
On the other hand...

1040
00:52:18,748 --> 00:52:19,781
It could be fun.

1041
00:52:19,816 --> 00:52:21,616
It could be fun.

1042
00:52:21,651 --> 00:52:23,418
Partners?

1043
00:52:23,453 --> 00:52:25,286
Partners.

1044
00:52:30,627 --> 00:52:31,904
All right, we don't have much
time so I'm going to give you

1045
00:52:31,928 --> 00:52:33,628
the CliffsNotes version of the rules.

1046
00:52:33,663 --> 00:52:36,431
Each team has two members,
we're given six blocks of ice.

1047
00:52:36,466 --> 00:52:38,332
Sculptures have to be
at least five feet tall

1048
00:52:38,401 --> 00:52:39,767
but no more than 10 feet.

1049
00:52:39,803 --> 00:52:42,236
And we can only use
the ice we're given.

1050
00:52:42,272 --> 00:52:43,905
How do you remember all that?

1051
00:52:43,940 --> 00:52:45,339
Cute.

1052
00:52:45,408 --> 00:52:48,342
Competition lasts three days,
72 hours,

1053
00:52:48,411 --> 00:52:51,579
during that time each
team member is only permitted

1054
00:52:51,614 --> 00:52:54,282
a total carving time
of up to 36 hours.

1055
00:52:54,317 --> 00:52:56,651
That's to make sure
nobody gets too tired.

1056
00:52:56,686 --> 00:52:58,252
And that's it.

1057
00:52:58,288 --> 00:52:59,654
Got it. Got it.

1058
00:52:59,689 --> 00:53:01,189
Got it.

1059
00:53:02,826 --> 00:53:05,493
Wow. That's some serious hardware.

1060
00:53:05,562 --> 00:53:06,761
Thank you.

1061
00:53:10,500 --> 00:53:12,100
So, where are your power tools?

1062
00:53:12,135 --> 00:53:14,235
I don't use 'em.

1063
00:53:14,270 --> 00:53:17,672
Okay. Well, uh,
then we'll work on that first.

1064
00:53:17,740 --> 00:53:19,006
Why?

1065
00:53:19,075 --> 00:53:21,075
Nick, these aren't little sculptures

1066
00:53:21,111 --> 00:53:23,778
you put on a table at a wedding.

1067
00:53:23,813 --> 00:53:25,513
These are huge.

1068
00:53:25,582 --> 00:53:27,949
If we just use hand tools
we'll never finish in time.

1069
00:53:27,984 --> 00:53:30,351
You're smiling.

1070
00:53:30,380 --> 00:53:31,540
Why are you smiling? I'm not.

1071
00:53:31,564 --> 00:53:32,753
You are smiling. I'm not.

1072
00:53:32,789 --> 00:53:35,456
Seriously, we don't have time
for this.

1073
00:53:35,492 --> 00:53:38,726
It's just, okay, look,
all of a sudden I...

1074
00:53:38,761 --> 00:53:41,295
I could see this gangly little girl

1075
00:53:41,331 --> 00:53:43,064
all serious about this stuff

1076
00:53:43,099 --> 00:53:47,268
who had no idea that she'd grow
up to be someone so amazing.

1077
00:53:50,673 --> 00:53:52,840
Come on, we have work to do.

1078
00:54:02,986 --> 00:54:04,552
See?

1079
00:54:04,585 --> 00:54:06,465
You can't get a cut like that
with a power tool.

1080
00:54:06,489 --> 00:54:07,455
Yeah.

1081
00:54:07,490 --> 00:54:09,223
It's nice.

1082
00:54:09,259 --> 00:54:11,459
And who knows? Maybe we could
finish by next Christmas.

1083
00:54:11,494 --> 00:54:13,561
Is that sarcasm?

1084
00:54:22,672 --> 00:54:24,739
What? Whoa.

1085
00:54:26,676 --> 00:54:30,111
Okay. Now, just remember
nice and easy.

1086
00:54:33,550 --> 00:54:35,316
Oh, boy.

1087
00:54:35,385 --> 00:54:36,984
Wow.

1088
00:54:37,053 --> 00:54:38,653
All right.

1089
00:54:38,721 --> 00:54:40,955
I guess we'll start again.

1090
00:54:40,990 --> 00:54:43,391
Sorry.

1091
00:54:48,431 --> 00:54:49,764
Now, that's eight feet.

1092
00:54:49,799 --> 00:54:51,479
So that's how tall
our sculpture should be.

1093
00:54:51,503 --> 00:54:54,135
Wow, that's big.

1094
00:54:54,170 --> 00:54:56,504
We still have to come up
with a design.

1095
00:54:59,142 --> 00:55:01,275
Look, we can't just
settle on one thing.

1096
00:55:01,311 --> 00:55:03,311
Right? We have to...

1097
00:55:03,379 --> 00:55:07,648
I don't know, think of something
that tells a story

1098
00:55:07,717 --> 00:55:10,484
with one image.

1099
00:55:10,553 --> 00:55:12,420
Okay. What do you suggest?

1100
00:55:12,455 --> 00:55:14,255
That's the thing, I don't know.

1101
00:55:14,290 --> 00:55:17,124
What we need right now
is some serious inspiration.

1102
00:55:18,494 --> 00:55:20,161
Well, we'd better get inspired soon

1103
00:55:20,230 --> 00:55:22,470
or we're going to have the only
sculpture in town history

1104
00:55:22,494 --> 00:55:24,894
called the block of ice.

1105
00:55:27,570 --> 00:55:28,850
All right. It's been a long day.

1106
00:55:28,874 --> 00:55:30,240
Why don't we just call it a night

1107
00:55:30,309 --> 00:55:32,607
and we'll come up
with something tomorrow?

1108
00:55:32,642 --> 00:55:33,975
Sure.

1109
00:55:34,043 --> 00:55:36,444
Great.

1110
00:55:37,447 --> 00:55:38,412
This was good.

1111
00:55:38,448 --> 00:55:39,480
Yeah.

1112
00:55:39,549 --> 00:55:41,616
Yeah? Yeah.

1113
00:55:41,651 --> 00:55:43,918
Okay, then.

1114
00:56:09,579 --> 00:56:11,412
Nick, it's Emma.

1115
00:56:11,447 --> 00:56:14,215
Remember what you said
about town history?

1116
00:56:17,553 --> 00:56:19,420
Trust me.

1117
00:56:19,455 --> 00:56:22,089
Emma, welcome back.

1118
00:56:22,125 --> 00:56:23,924
Hi, Vera, this is Nick Claiborne.

1119
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,727
He and I are partnering up for
the ice sculpting competition.

1120
00:56:26,763 --> 00:56:28,129
Nice to meet you.

1121
00:56:28,197 --> 00:56:30,117
But shouldn't you two be
sharpening your chisels?

1122
00:56:30,141 --> 00:56:31,901
Well, we have to decide
what to sculpt first.

1123
00:56:31,925 --> 00:56:33,868
Do you mind if we look at
those pictures again?

1124
00:56:33,903 --> 00:56:37,204
I'll go get them. Oh, take a
look at the new display.

1125
00:56:43,613 --> 00:56:46,614
I can't believe they made
all these with just hand tools.

1126
00:56:46,649 --> 00:56:47,982
Pretty amazing, right?

1127
00:56:48,051 --> 00:56:49,950
No kidding. But...

1128
00:56:50,019 --> 00:56:52,620
I'm still not sure how this
is going to help us.

1129
00:56:52,689 --> 00:56:54,522
Well.

1130
00:56:54,557 --> 00:56:57,124
All these sculptures
are special in some way

1131
00:56:57,193 --> 00:57:00,561
and just want whatever we do
to mean something too.

1132
00:57:02,602 --> 00:57:03,842
It's not about the town, is it?

1133
00:57:03,866 --> 00:57:05,266
It's about you.

1134
00:57:07,403 --> 00:57:10,271
My mother doesn't even know
I'm doing this.

1135
00:57:11,808 --> 00:57:14,442
I, uh, I didn't tell her
because she would just say

1136
00:57:14,477 --> 00:57:16,877
it's a distraction
from my legal career.

1137
00:57:16,913 --> 00:57:19,046
I thought you said
you weren't a lawyer.

1138
00:57:19,082 --> 00:57:20,948
Oh, I said not yet.

1139
00:57:21,017 --> 00:57:23,250
I took the bar exam,
I'm waiting for the results.

1140
00:57:23,286 --> 00:57:25,086
And when you do?

1141
00:57:25,121 --> 00:57:29,223
When I do I hang out my shingle
and go to work with my mother.

1142
00:57:29,258 --> 00:57:31,592
In the meantime, I'm supposed to
be soaking everything in

1143
00:57:31,627 --> 00:57:33,627
so I can hit the ground running.

1144
00:57:35,698 --> 00:57:37,531
You don't sound very happy about it.

1145
00:57:39,569 --> 00:57:42,970
This isn't helping us
decide what to sculpt.

1146
00:57:47,076 --> 00:57:49,176
Hi, Frank?

1147
00:57:49,212 --> 00:57:50,845
Yeah, thanks for calling me back.

1148
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:54,115
I just wanted to thank you
for helping us with the...

1149
00:57:55,551 --> 00:57:58,252
Oh, uh.

1150
00:57:58,287 --> 00:58:00,121
Okay. Uh...

1151
00:58:02,392 --> 00:58:04,258
Yeah. Yeah. No. Okay.

1152
00:58:04,293 --> 00:58:05,860
Thanks for telling me.

1153
00:58:05,895 --> 00:58:08,262
Merry Christmas.

1154
00:58:08,297 --> 00:58:09,630
Huh.

1155
00:58:09,699 --> 00:58:10,639
What was that about?

1156
00:58:10,700 --> 00:58:12,099
That was Frank Duvall,

1157
00:58:12,135 --> 00:58:14,502
he said he got my call
about the donation.

1158
00:58:16,339 --> 00:58:18,172
He said it wasn't him.

1159
00:58:18,207 --> 00:58:20,608
He didn't donate the money.

1160
00:58:20,676 --> 00:58:22,943
Who did?

1161
00:58:32,974 --> 00:58:34,507
Why would someone give all that money

1162
00:58:34,542 --> 00:58:35,942
and want to keep it a secret?

1163
00:58:35,977 --> 00:58:38,477
Maybe because that's the
definition of anonymous.

1164
00:58:38,513 --> 00:58:41,347
Okay. Well, I'd like to
at least thank them.

1165
00:58:43,985 --> 00:58:45,518
It's Nick.

1166
00:58:45,586 --> 00:58:47,687
Says he has an idea
for our sculpture.

1167
00:58:47,755 --> 00:58:49,622
And how's that going?

1168
00:58:49,657 --> 00:58:50,990
Good.

1169
00:58:51,025 --> 00:58:53,025
If we could just
come up with a design.

1170
00:58:53,094 --> 00:58:54,860
That's not what I meant.

1171
00:58:54,929 --> 00:58:56,629
Nick is a great guy.

1172
00:58:56,664 --> 00:58:58,431
Sounds like it.

1173
00:58:58,466 --> 00:59:01,334
But I just have so much going on
right now with the competition

1174
00:59:01,369 --> 00:59:03,002
and work and...

1175
00:59:03,037 --> 00:59:05,638
I just really need to stay focused.

1176
00:59:05,673 --> 00:59:07,540
Focused is good.

1177
00:59:07,608 --> 00:59:09,108
Don't give me that.

1178
00:59:09,143 --> 00:59:11,677
Don't even.

1179
00:59:11,746 --> 00:59:14,447
Okay. I admit I had my doubts
about the museum

1180
00:59:14,482 --> 00:59:16,449
and getting inspired
and all that stuff.

1181
00:59:16,484 --> 00:59:20,686
But when you left it was like,
boom, there it was.

1182
00:59:22,423 --> 00:59:24,657
Keep in mind I can't draw for beans.

1183
00:59:24,692 --> 00:59:26,759
Nick, just show me.

1184
00:59:26,794 --> 00:59:28,694
So.

1185
00:59:28,763 --> 00:59:30,997
What do you think?

1186
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:34,700
I love it.

1187
00:59:35,837 --> 00:59:36,802
Then let's get to work.

1188
01:00:00,161 --> 01:00:01,794
Come on, put your back into it.

1189
01:00:08,236 --> 01:00:10,903
Wow, it's late.

1190
01:00:10,938 --> 01:00:12,938
Yeah, we've been at this a while.

1191
01:00:15,176 --> 01:00:17,777
Thank you.

1192
01:00:17,812 --> 01:00:20,913
None of this would've happened
without you.

1193
01:00:20,948 --> 01:00:23,949
No, you made this happen, Emma.

1194
01:00:23,985 --> 01:00:25,584
I'm just...

1195
01:00:25,620 --> 01:00:27,653
just lucky to be here when you did.

1196
01:00:29,824 --> 01:00:31,190
<i>Hi, Mom?</i>

1197
01:00:31,259 --> 01:00:32,825
Hey, honey, I just wanted
to remind you

1198
01:00:32,860 --> 01:00:34,780
that we need to get
an early start in the morning

1199
01:00:34,804 --> 01:00:36,924
if we're going to make it on
time for the depositions.

1200
01:00:36,948 --> 01:00:39,131
The depositions.

1201
01:00:39,167 --> 01:00:40,966
You didn't forget, did you?

1202
01:00:41,002 --> 01:00:42,802
No, no, of course not.

1203
01:00:42,837 --> 01:00:44,837
I'm just, I'm a little tired.

1204
01:00:44,906 --> 01:00:47,506
Oh, well get some rest.
I'll meet you at the office.

1205
01:00:47,575 --> 01:00:49,275
<i>Big day tomorrow.</i>

1206
01:00:49,310 --> 01:00:51,410
Yeah. Got it. Thanks, Mom.

1207
01:00:55,316 --> 01:00:57,183
Everything okay?

1208
01:00:57,251 --> 01:00:59,318
I should go.

1209
01:01:00,421 --> 01:01:01,821
Okay.

1210
01:01:01,856 --> 01:01:04,123
Go. Get some rest.
We got a bid day tomorrow.

1211
01:01:04,158 --> 01:01:05,991
Yeah.

1212
01:01:06,060 --> 01:01:08,160
Yeah, big day.

1213
01:01:09,564 --> 01:01:11,664
Big day.

1214
01:01:52,279 --> 01:01:54,713
Mom?

1215
01:01:54,748 --> 01:01:56,615
All set.

1216
01:01:56,650 --> 01:01:57,616
Oh.

1217
01:01:57,651 --> 01:01:59,151
I meant to ask you

1218
01:01:59,219 --> 01:02:01,139
to pick up some of that
great coffee on your way.

1219
01:02:01,163 --> 01:02:02,854
But never mind, we'll stop.

1220
01:02:02,890 --> 01:02:04,256
I need to talk to you.

1221
01:02:04,291 --> 01:02:05,590
Can we talk in the car?

1222
01:02:05,626 --> 01:02:07,692
Mom.

1223
01:02:07,728 --> 01:02:09,528
Oh. All right. What is it?

1224
01:02:09,563 --> 01:02:11,630
I know how important
this case it to you,

1225
01:02:11,698 --> 01:02:13,058
and I know how much you want me...

1226
01:02:18,605 --> 01:02:20,806
Parkers Law Office.

1227
01:02:20,874 --> 01:02:22,474
Speaking.

1228
01:02:22,543 --> 01:02:24,810
Yes, yes, I did.

1229
01:02:24,878 --> 01:02:26,278
Oh, really?

1230
01:02:26,313 --> 01:02:27,412
Well, that's great.

1231
01:02:27,447 --> 01:02:29,414
I hope so too. Merry Christmas.

1232
01:02:31,718 --> 01:02:34,753
That was the endowment office
at the college.

1233
01:02:34,788 --> 01:02:37,600
They want to talk about the scholarship
Vera wants to set up in her husband's name.

1234
01:02:37,624 --> 01:02:39,457
That's wonderful.

1235
01:02:39,526 --> 01:02:41,793
But today's the last day
before the holiday

1236
01:02:41,862 --> 01:02:43,962
and they need to meet this morning.

1237
01:02:44,031 --> 01:02:45,397
So.

1238
01:02:45,432 --> 01:02:47,799
And one of us has to be there,
of course.

1239
01:02:47,868 --> 01:02:51,136
Mom, you don't need me there
for these depositions.

1240
01:02:51,195 --> 01:02:52,715
Yeah, but you've
worked so hard on this

1241
01:02:52,739 --> 01:02:54,773
and it seems like such a shame
to not have...

1242
01:02:56,543 --> 01:02:59,444
And to tell you the truth, I was
looking forward to the drive.

1243
01:02:59,513 --> 01:03:02,047
Just me and you.

1244
01:03:02,082 --> 01:03:04,616
I miss spending time with you.

1245
01:03:04,685 --> 01:03:06,685
I know, Mom, me too.

1246
01:03:09,723 --> 01:03:12,257
All right, well, keep me posted.

1247
01:03:12,292 --> 01:03:13,592
I'll be back tomorrow.

1248
01:03:13,627 --> 01:03:15,861
All right.

1249
01:03:25,439 --> 01:03:26,738
Hey. Hey, where you been?

1250
01:03:26,773 --> 01:03:28,440
We got to get ready.
We're starting soon.

1251
01:03:28,508 --> 01:03:30,019
Yeah, I know. I'm sorry, I just
had to stop by the office.

1252
01:03:30,043 --> 01:03:31,803
But I just have one other thing
I need to do.

1253
01:03:31,827 --> 01:03:33,111
Wait! No, no. What?

1254
01:03:33,180 --> 01:03:34,412
Don't worry! Emma!

1255
01:03:34,448 --> 01:03:36,548
I'll be back in time!

1256
01:03:45,192 --> 01:03:46,892
All right, Vera.

1257
01:03:46,927 --> 01:03:50,595
The Samuel R. Baxter Scholarship
will be awarded every September.

1258
01:03:52,032 --> 01:03:53,665
Great. That's exactly what I wanted.

1259
01:04:09,182 --> 01:04:10,548
Hey, how's it going?

1260
01:04:10,584 --> 01:04:12,083
Sarah.

1261
01:04:12,119 --> 01:04:15,120
You must be Nick.

1262
01:04:15,188 --> 01:04:16,128
Yeah?

1263
01:04:16,189 --> 01:04:18,390
I'm, uh, Dan Parkers.

1264
01:04:18,425 --> 01:04:20,125
Oh, nice to meet you. Emma's dad.

1265
01:04:20,193 --> 01:04:21,593
Uh, where is she?

1266
01:04:21,662 --> 01:04:23,261
Don't worry, she'll be here.

1267
01:04:23,330 --> 01:04:25,597
Oh, yeah, that's what everyone
keeps telling me.

1268
01:04:25,666 --> 01:04:28,199
Good morning, everyone.

1269
01:04:28,235 --> 01:04:31,002
Welcome to the
Westford Christmas Festival

1270
01:04:31,038 --> 01:04:33,204
ice sculpting competition!

1271
01:04:36,109 --> 01:04:38,510
I'm here, I'm here.

1272
01:04:38,545 --> 01:04:40,712
Talk about timing. Sorry I'm late.

1273
01:04:40,747 --> 01:04:42,614
Good luck, you two.

1274
01:04:42,683 --> 01:04:44,516
Thanks, Dad.

1275
01:04:44,551 --> 01:04:46,751
Each team member is permitted
a total carving time of...

1276
01:04:46,775 --> 01:04:48,553
You okay?

1277
01:04:48,588 --> 01:04:50,055
Yeah. Yeah. We're doing this.

1278
01:04:50,090 --> 01:04:51,890
Ice blocks that are in their area.

1279
01:04:51,925 --> 01:04:56,661
Sculptures must be five feet
tall but no more than 10 feet.

1280
01:04:56,697 --> 01:05:00,231
And then on Christmas Eve day,
the judges will pick a winner.

1281
01:05:02,102 --> 01:05:03,068
Is everybody ready?

1282
01:05:04,905 --> 01:05:06,065
I said, "Is everybody ready?"

1283
01:05:07,007 --> 01:05:08,373
On your marks.

1284
01:05:08,408 --> 01:05:10,008
Get set.

1285
01:05:10,043 --> 01:05:11,409
Go!

1286
01:05:15,949 --> 01:05:18,216
Let's do this.

1287
01:05:21,822 --> 01:05:23,221
We just need to make sure

1288
01:05:23,256 --> 01:05:25,156
we have enough clearance
for the lights. Right?

1289
01:05:25,192 --> 01:05:27,926
Let's get started.
Just like that, huh?

1290
01:05:32,192 --> 01:05:33,592
Do you know what they're sculpting?

1291
01:05:33,616 --> 01:05:35,100
I have no idea.

1292
01:05:35,168 --> 01:05:37,268
They said it was a surprise.

1293
01:05:37,337 --> 01:05:38,703
Come on, Emma!

1294
01:05:38,739 --> 01:05:41,940
Yeah, then we'll just
stack it on top.

1295
01:05:44,878 --> 01:05:46,711
Double the check
the measurements, right?

1296
01:05:46,747 --> 01:05:49,080
We're good to drop?

1297
01:05:49,149 --> 01:05:50,348
Okay, perfect. Got it.

1298
01:05:50,384 --> 01:05:53,151
Thanks. We got it!

1299
01:06:29,629 --> 01:06:34,398
You have no idea how enchanting
you look with a saw in your hand.

1300
01:06:34,467 --> 01:06:35,499
Wow.

1301
01:06:35,535 --> 01:06:37,068
Is... is that what I think it is?

1302
01:06:37,136 --> 01:06:38,402
I caught her before she closed.

1303
01:06:38,471 --> 01:06:41,772
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you.

1304
01:06:41,808 --> 01:06:44,442
I forgot how cold it gets.

1305
01:06:44,477 --> 01:06:46,877
Yeah. So, have you had a chance
to check out the competition?

1306
01:06:46,901 --> 01:06:47,545
Unh-unh.

1307
01:06:47,613 --> 01:06:49,547
You know?

1308
01:06:49,615 --> 01:06:50,815
I think we're holding our own.

1309
01:06:50,839 --> 01:06:52,516
Yeah? Yeah.

1310
01:06:52,552 --> 01:06:55,386
So, you know, if you want to,
um, get warm, go home,

1311
01:06:55,455 --> 01:06:56,821
rest up for a couple hours.

1312
01:06:56,856 --> 01:06:58,856
I'm okay.

1313
01:07:00,126 --> 01:07:02,026
You really love this.

1314
01:07:03,196 --> 01:07:04,528
This.

1315
01:07:04,564 --> 01:07:07,331
This always meant Christmas to me.

1316
01:07:07,366 --> 01:07:11,102
I love all the rest,
the trees and the...

1317
01:07:11,137 --> 01:07:13,938
lights, and the music.

1318
01:07:13,973 --> 01:07:18,809
But this... this is
what made it special.

1319
01:07:18,845 --> 01:07:21,445
Ice sculpting has always been
a part of who I am.

1320
01:07:23,049 --> 01:07:27,718
And now I needed it to help me
decide who I want to be.

1321
01:07:29,489 --> 01:07:31,489
I like who you are right now.

1322
01:07:33,459 --> 01:07:35,826
Yeah. But there's always
been this plan.

1323
01:07:35,862 --> 01:07:38,963
And I'm just... I'm not sure
about that anymore.

1324
01:07:38,998 --> 01:07:41,132
So we'll make a new plan.

1325
01:07:42,368 --> 01:07:44,635
Oh.

1326
01:07:47,707 --> 01:07:49,774
Oh.

1327
01:07:49,809 --> 01:07:51,375
They sent the results.

1328
01:07:51,444 --> 01:07:53,310
The results?

1329
01:07:53,346 --> 01:07:55,479
For the bar exam.

1330
01:07:56,549 --> 01:07:58,215
I passed.

1331
01:07:58,284 --> 01:08:01,185
You passed the bar exam!

1332
01:08:01,220 --> 01:08:02,340
Oh, my gosh! That's amazing!

1333
01:08:02,364 --> 01:08:03,454
Congratulations.

1334
01:08:03,489 --> 01:08:05,489
Yeah. No, than... thank you.

1335
01:08:05,525 --> 01:08:08,692
Yeah. Okay. I'm not an expert.

1336
01:08:08,761 --> 01:08:10,681
But, uh, it's supposed to be
a good thing, right?

1337
01:08:10,705 --> 01:08:12,830
Yeah, no. I'm... I'm really excited.

1338
01:08:12,865 --> 01:08:14,331
Okay, well you don't seem like it.

1339
01:08:14,367 --> 01:08:15,599
Don't you want to be a lawyer?

1340
01:08:15,635 --> 01:08:16,967
I do.

1341
01:08:17,003 --> 01:08:19,770
Of course. I mean,
why else would I...

1342
01:08:19,806 --> 01:08:21,766
go to school and knock myself
off for three years.

1343
01:08:21,790 --> 01:08:22,840
I don't know.

1344
01:08:22,875 --> 01:08:25,142
Maybe it's because
a part of that big plan,

1345
01:08:25,178 --> 01:08:27,011
the one you worked
your whole life for.

1346
01:08:27,046 --> 01:08:29,146
It is a great plan.

1347
01:08:34,253 --> 01:08:35,753
It makes a lot of sense.

1348
01:08:35,788 --> 01:08:38,355
I mean, my mom and I are
going to be partners now.

1349
01:08:38,424 --> 01:08:41,492
So, what, you don't want
your name on the door?

1350
01:08:42,628 --> 01:08:45,029
You know what? I...

1351
01:08:45,097 --> 01:08:46,130
I should take a break.

1352
01:08:46,165 --> 01:08:47,698
Emma.

1353
01:08:47,767 --> 01:08:50,668
Remember what you told me
about being an artist?

1354
01:08:50,703 --> 01:08:53,037
I don't hold a candle to you.

1355
01:08:56,475 --> 01:08:58,709
Thanks.

1356
01:08:59,946 --> 01:09:02,112
Thanks for the coffee.

1357
01:09:23,836 --> 01:09:26,270
That looks like a big block of ice.

1358
01:09:39,918 --> 01:09:41,051
Hi, Mom.

1359
01:09:41,086 --> 01:09:43,553
Hi, honey. I'm just checking in.

1360
01:09:43,589 --> 01:09:45,522
How did everything go
at the school with Vera?

1361
01:09:45,557 --> 01:09:47,858
Yeah. Um... great.

1362
01:09:47,893 --> 01:09:50,594
Great. They're all ready to go.

1363
01:09:50,663 --> 01:09:51,663
And she's really excited.

1364
01:09:51,687 --> 01:09:52,896
<i>Wonderful.</i>

1365
01:09:52,931 --> 01:09:54,564
Thank you for taking care of that.

1366
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:56,733
Of course. Um...

1367
01:09:56,769 --> 01:09:59,169
How did the depositions go?

1368
01:09:59,204 --> 01:10:01,004
It went really well.

1369
01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,307
In fact, we finished early
and I'm leaving now.

1370
01:10:03,342 --> 01:10:05,842
<i>I'll tell you all about it
when I get home.</i>

1371
01:10:05,878 --> 01:10:07,544
Sounds good.

1372
01:10:07,579 --> 01:10:09,746
You know, I just... I just
wanted to ask you something.

1373
01:10:09,815 --> 01:10:11,214
<i>Sure.</i>

1374
01:10:11,250 --> 01:10:13,650
I was thinking about what we said

1375
01:10:13,686 --> 01:10:16,320
about not spending
enough time together.

1376
01:10:16,355 --> 01:10:18,355
<i>And I was really hoping</i>

1377
01:10:18,390 --> 01:10:20,857
<i>we might have dinner at home
tonight just the three of us.</i>

1378
01:10:22,695 --> 01:10:24,806
<i>I mean, I don't know, maybe
turn on the tree lights.</i>

1379
01:10:24,830 --> 01:10:27,030
And put on the music.

1380
01:10:27,066 --> 01:10:30,867
And maybe watch an old Christmas
movie like we used to.

1381
01:10:30,903 --> 01:10:31,868
How does that sound?

1382
01:10:31,904 --> 01:10:34,404
Uh, tonight?

1383
01:10:34,473 --> 01:10:36,807
Oh, unless of course
you have other plans.

1384
01:10:38,344 --> 01:10:40,010
No, you know what?

1385
01:10:40,045 --> 01:10:41,311
Mom, tonight sounds great.

1386
01:10:41,347 --> 01:10:42,512
<i>Okay, good.</i>

1387
01:10:43,549 --> 01:10:45,148
I'll call your dad

1388
01:10:45,184 --> 01:10:47,264
and I'll tell him there'll be
three of us for dinner.

1389
01:10:47,288 --> 01:10:49,152
Great. I'll see you then.

1390
01:10:49,188 --> 01:10:51,188
<i>Okay. Bye, sweetheart.</i>

1391
01:11:00,366 --> 01:11:01,798
Sorry, I fell asleep.

1392
01:11:01,834 --> 01:11:03,500
That's okay.
I thought that was the point.

1393
01:11:03,535 --> 01:11:05,836
That's...

1394
01:11:05,871 --> 01:11:07,304
Yeah. Did you get some rest?

1395
01:11:07,339 --> 01:11:09,873
Yeah, I got a couple hours.
I'm good to go.

1396
01:11:09,908 --> 01:11:11,875
Great.

1397
01:11:11,910 --> 01:11:13,810
You tell your parents the good news?

1398
01:11:13,846 --> 01:11:15,846
Uh, not yet.

1399
01:11:15,881 --> 01:11:17,748
When are you going to tell 'em?

1400
01:11:17,816 --> 01:11:20,150
Tonight at dinner.

1401
01:11:20,185 --> 01:11:21,485
Tonight?

1402
01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:23,653
Yeah. No, don't worry.

1403
01:11:23,689 --> 01:11:27,457
I won't be gone long.
We'll finish in time still.

1404
01:11:27,493 --> 01:11:29,693
Yeah, right. I'm sure they're
going to be really excited

1405
01:11:29,717 --> 01:11:31,817
to hear the big news.

1406
01:11:45,077 --> 01:11:47,010
Emma.

1407
01:11:47,045 --> 01:11:49,146
Emma! Emma! Wait!

1408
01:11:50,215 --> 01:11:52,182
I was...

1409
01:11:52,217 --> 01:11:53,817
If you hadn't... It's okay.

1410
01:11:53,852 --> 01:11:55,285
We can fix it. Stopped me.

1411
01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:57,954
Look. Lonny and Sarah
brought some cider.

1412
01:11:57,990 --> 01:11:59,956
Let's take a break
and then we'll fix it.

1413
01:11:59,992 --> 01:12:01,232
I wasn't even paying attention.

1414
01:12:01,256 --> 01:12:02,325
If you hadn't stopped me

1415
01:12:02,361 --> 01:12:04,628
I could've ruined
the whole sculpture.

1416
01:12:04,663 --> 01:12:05,663
But you didn't.

1417
01:12:05,697 --> 01:12:06,863
It's all right.

1418
01:12:06,899 --> 01:12:07,964
It's not all right.

1419
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:09,566
Nothing's all right.

1420
01:12:09,635 --> 01:12:11,555
I keep trying to figure out
the right thing to do

1421
01:12:11,579 --> 01:12:15,038
but I just keep
doing everything wrong.

1422
01:12:15,073 --> 01:12:19,543
The sculpture, my parents, my career.

1423
01:12:20,546 --> 01:12:21,711
You.

1424
01:12:21,780 --> 01:12:25,015
Look around.

1425
01:12:25,050 --> 01:12:26,016
Here.

1426
01:12:26,051 --> 01:12:27,517
Look at all these people

1427
01:12:27,553 --> 01:12:29,653
doing something that
they thought they lost.

1428
01:12:29,688 --> 01:12:31,688
You did this.

1429
01:12:36,795 --> 01:12:39,035
You made Christmas a little more
special for all of them.

1430
01:12:41,733 --> 01:12:43,733
And a lot more special for me.

1431
01:12:46,004 --> 01:12:47,504
Really?

1432
01:12:47,539 --> 01:12:49,606
Yeah, I was...

1433
01:12:49,641 --> 01:12:51,975
I was ready to give up on all this.

1434
01:12:53,011 --> 01:12:55,011
But you changed my mind.

1435
01:12:56,815 --> 01:13:00,951
And... I'm not letting you give
up on what you really want.

1436
01:13:08,894 --> 01:13:11,695
What I want...

1437
01:13:11,730 --> 01:13:12,810
it's not part of that plan.

1438
01:13:12,834 --> 01:13:14,231
Oh, yeah?

1439
01:13:14,299 --> 01:13:16,633
Then it's time for a new plan.

1440
01:13:16,668 --> 01:13:18,301
Okay?

1441
01:13:18,337 --> 01:13:20,537
Look inside your heart, Emma.

1442
01:13:20,606 --> 01:13:23,106
Find the thing that you really love.

1443
01:13:25,310 --> 01:13:28,144
And that's how you know
you found the right choice.

1444
01:13:34,859 --> 01:13:37,293
Oh, Emma, that's wonderful news.

1445
01:13:37,328 --> 01:13:40,363
Congratulations, honey,
on passing the bar.

1446
01:13:40,431 --> 01:13:42,431
We are so proud of you.

1447
01:13:44,369 --> 01:13:46,502
Thanks, guys.

1448
01:13:46,571 --> 01:13:48,271
It's still kind of sinking in.

1449
01:13:48,306 --> 01:13:50,406
Well, I never had any doubt.

1450
01:13:50,441 --> 01:13:52,275
But this makes it official.

1451
01:13:52,310 --> 01:13:56,012
So, to Emma Parkers, attorney at law.

1452
01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:58,648
To Emma!

1453
01:13:58,683 --> 01:14:00,016
Oh, can I give it to her now?

1454
01:14:00,084 --> 01:14:01,484
It's supposed to be for Christmas.

1455
01:14:01,519 --> 01:14:03,019
Close enough.

1456
01:14:03,087 --> 01:14:04,654
Give me what?

1457
01:14:06,424 --> 01:14:08,424
Your mother.

1458
01:14:09,794 --> 01:14:10,826
What is it?

1459
01:14:10,862 --> 01:14:13,462
Open it and see.

1460
01:14:16,100 --> 01:14:17,767
Partners.

1461
01:14:17,802 --> 01:14:19,302
Just like we planned.

1462
01:14:19,337 --> 01:14:22,471
Just like we planned.

1463
01:14:23,942 --> 01:14:24,907
Emma?

1464
01:14:24,943 --> 01:14:26,943
What is it, honey? What's wrong?

1465
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,948
I need to show you something.

1466
01:14:46,391 --> 01:14:49,092
Do... do you know
what this is all about?

1467
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:51,594
Maybe we'll just let Emma explain it.

1468
01:14:59,204 --> 01:15:01,371
Mom. Nick Claiborne.

1469
01:15:01,406 --> 01:15:03,239
Nick, my mother.

1470
01:15:03,274 --> 01:15:04,994
It's nice to finally meet you,
Mrs. Parkers.

1471
01:15:05,018 --> 01:15:05,441
Hello. Hi.

1472
01:15:05,510 --> 01:15:07,543
Hey, Dan.

1473
01:15:07,579 --> 01:15:09,012
Hey, Nick. Looks great.

1474
01:15:09,047 --> 01:15:11,180
Yeah. It's coming along.

1475
01:15:11,216 --> 01:15:12,515
Um, excuse me, I'm sorry.

1476
01:15:12,550 --> 01:15:15,885
Maybe because I'm freezing, but, uh,

1477
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,654
I'd really like to know
exactly what's going on here.

1478
01:15:24,001 --> 01:15:28,068
I should told you before mom, but I decided
to enter the ice sculpting competition.

1479
01:15:28,104 --> 01:15:30,738
Nick and I are partners
and this is our sculpture.

1480
01:15:33,142 --> 01:15:35,175
Honey.

1481
01:15:35,244 --> 01:15:36,777
You didn't need to
keep that a secret,

1482
01:15:36,812 --> 01:15:38,452
I think it's good for you
to have hobbies.

1483
01:15:38,476 --> 01:15:39,646
And, I mean,

1484
01:15:39,715 --> 01:15:42,582
especially ones you can schedule
around a busy law practice.

1485
01:15:46,121 --> 01:15:48,555
That's the thing,
I'm not sure I want to do that.

1486
01:15:50,793 --> 01:15:52,793
Wait? What do you mean?

1487
01:15:55,564 --> 01:15:58,331
Look, Mom.

1488
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:00,734
I don't think I want to be a lawyer.

1489
01:16:00,769 --> 01:16:04,237
I'm not sure I ever really did.

1490
01:16:05,574 --> 01:16:08,208
But...

1491
01:16:08,243 --> 01:16:11,578
I mean, this has been our plan
since...

1492
01:16:11,613 --> 01:16:13,647
since you were a little girl.

1493
01:16:13,716 --> 01:16:15,782
It was your plan, Mom.

1494
01:16:15,818 --> 01:16:18,251
And it was a good one.

1495
01:16:18,287 --> 01:16:21,088
It was. It just...

1496
01:16:21,123 --> 01:16:22,089
Not the right one.

1497
01:16:22,124 --> 01:16:24,324
Not for me.

1498
01:16:29,665 --> 01:16:31,665
Are you sure you want to

1499
01:16:31,734 --> 01:16:34,768
walk away from everything
you've worked so hard for?

1500
01:16:34,803 --> 01:16:35,902
Dan.

1501
01:16:35,938 --> 01:16:37,571
Tell her. What...

1502
01:16:37,606 --> 01:16:39,940
Oh, honey.

1503
01:16:39,975 --> 01:16:43,577
We always said that the most
important thing we wanted

1504
01:16:43,612 --> 01:16:45,112
is for Emma to be happy.

1505
01:16:45,147 --> 01:16:47,414
And this is what I love.

1506
01:16:47,449 --> 01:16:51,585
But a career in law has a future.

1507
01:16:51,620 --> 01:16:52,586
And...

1508
01:16:52,621 --> 01:16:54,287
Mrs. Parkers.

1509
01:16:54,323 --> 01:16:57,424
It's not more than just a
future, it's about passion.

1510
01:16:57,459 --> 01:17:00,227
I mean, this whole
ice sculpting competition

1511
01:17:00,262 --> 01:17:01,862
would've been cancelled this year.

1512
01:17:01,897 --> 01:17:04,131
Yes. I know.

1513
01:17:04,199 --> 01:17:07,067
Well, if it wasn't for Emma
none of this would've happened.

1514
01:17:07,102 --> 01:17:09,136
She raised all the money.

1515
01:17:10,139 --> 01:17:11,538
Is that true?

1516
01:17:11,573 --> 01:17:13,974
Well, yeah. But I... I mean,
I had a lot of help

1517
01:17:14,042 --> 01:17:17,377
with Sarah and Nick and Dad
even made a few phone calls.

1518
01:17:17,412 --> 01:17:19,045
Oh, so...

1519
01:17:19,081 --> 01:17:20,881
Oh, you did know?

1520
01:17:20,916 --> 01:17:24,151
Well, I made a couple of calls.

1521
01:17:25,921 --> 01:17:30,423
Emma, sculpting ice
isn't exactly a career.

1522
01:17:34,029 --> 01:17:36,630
I know. But...

1523
01:17:38,700 --> 01:17:40,267
It felt right.

1524
01:17:40,302 --> 01:17:41,701
Working for a good cause,

1525
01:17:41,737 --> 01:17:43,617
bringing people together
to help make it happen.

1526
01:17:43,641 --> 01:17:46,742
Seeing how happy it made everyone.

1527
01:17:48,477 --> 01:17:49,788
I mean, I know I still have to
figure out the rest of my life

1528
01:17:49,812 --> 01:17:53,814
but I like the way this felt.

1529
01:17:55,250 --> 01:17:57,484
And I'm just...

1530
01:17:57,553 --> 01:18:00,954
I'm not sure I'm ready to make
up my mind about being a lawyer.

1531
01:18:02,858 --> 01:18:05,225
But whatever I choose...

1532
01:18:05,260 --> 01:18:07,727
right now?

1533
01:18:07,763 --> 01:18:10,130
This is what I want.

1534
01:18:11,900 --> 01:18:14,134
This is my Christmas.

1535
01:18:18,207 --> 01:18:20,407
Well.

1536
01:18:20,442 --> 01:18:22,542
Your father's right.

1537
01:18:24,780 --> 01:18:27,781
The most important thing
is your happiness.

1538
01:18:30,586 --> 01:18:35,222
But, oh, my dear, you could be
one powerful good lawyer.

1539
01:18:36,558 --> 01:18:38,458
So, you're not disappointed?

1540
01:18:38,527 --> 01:18:41,895
Honey, we would never be
disappointed in you.

1541
01:18:41,930 --> 01:18:44,531
And let's face it,
it's not exactly a surprise.

1542
01:18:45,767 --> 01:18:47,300
What?

1543
01:18:47,369 --> 01:18:49,269
Well, every Christmas
for all these years

1544
01:18:49,304 --> 01:18:52,038
you and your father
have been completely loopy

1545
01:18:52,074 --> 01:18:54,207
about this competition.

1546
01:18:54,243 --> 01:18:57,043
I mean, it wasn't like you were
just going to give it up.

1547
01:18:57,079 --> 01:18:59,546
So, you knew I had second
thoughts about being a lawyer?

1548
01:18:59,581 --> 01:19:03,350
Well, I mean, I had hope
that once you did the bar

1549
01:19:03,385 --> 01:19:05,585
you'd be ready to, you know,
give it a chance.

1550
01:19:05,621 --> 01:19:08,455
But then I thought
what you really needed

1551
01:19:08,523 --> 01:19:11,925
was the chance to finally
decide for yourself.

1552
01:19:13,629 --> 01:19:16,863
Am I missing something here?

1553
01:19:16,899 --> 01:19:18,465
You and me both.

1554
01:19:18,533 --> 01:19:21,134
How was she going to decide
what she really wanted

1555
01:19:21,203 --> 01:19:23,870
if the competition was cancelled?

1556
01:19:23,906 --> 01:19:25,906
Wait.

1557
01:19:25,941 --> 01:19:28,241
You donated the $10,000?

1558
01:19:32,180 --> 01:19:34,381
I...

1559
01:19:34,416 --> 01:19:37,851
I just wanted you
to have the choice...

1560
01:19:37,886 --> 01:19:40,053
to do the thing you love the most.

1561
01:19:43,959 --> 01:19:46,126
Mom.

1562
01:19:48,764 --> 01:19:50,730
Thank you.

1563
01:19:55,070 --> 01:19:58,338
And besides, you were right,
it was for a very good cause.

1564
01:19:58,373 --> 01:20:00,373
My daughter's Christmas.

1565
01:20:02,110 --> 01:20:03,154
Promise you guys will both
be here tomorrow

1566
01:20:03,178 --> 01:20:04,378
when they announce the winner?

1567
01:20:04,402 --> 01:20:06,613
Wouldn't miss it for the world.

1568
01:20:06,682 --> 01:20:08,381
Oh.

1569
01:20:08,417 --> 01:20:10,517
But now, you two better get busy

1570
01:20:10,552 --> 01:20:13,253
because you've a lot of work to do.

1571
01:20:13,288 --> 01:20:15,522
Yeah, we got a long night
ahead of us.

1572
01:20:15,557 --> 01:20:17,691
I'm going to enjoy
every minute of it.

1573
01:20:37,599 --> 01:20:39,532
How much time?

1574
01:20:39,567 --> 01:20:41,534
It's almost there.

1575
01:20:41,569 --> 01:20:43,080
All right, ladies and gentlemen,
let's hear it for the sculptors.

1576
01:20:43,104 --> 01:20:45,571
They've been working hard
for three days.

1577
01:20:48,009 --> 01:20:49,353
Send them some energy. Come on,
ladies and gentlemen!

1578
01:20:49,377 --> 01:20:50,910
Give it to them! Give it to them!

1579
01:20:50,979 --> 01:20:52,879
Send them some energy!

1580
01:20:54,215 --> 01:20:56,049
I don't know about you,

1581
01:20:56,084 --> 01:20:58,685
but I think this has been the
best ice sculpting competition

1582
01:20:58,720 --> 01:20:59,886
we've ever had.

1583
01:21:15,637 --> 01:21:17,837
Look at those beautiful sculptures!

1584
01:21:19,674 --> 01:21:21,641
How much time?

1585
01:21:21,676 --> 01:21:23,743
Oh, it's getting close.

1586
01:21:25,313 --> 01:21:27,880
Hey! Focus.

1587
01:21:27,916 --> 01:21:29,556
We're on the last few minutes
here, folks.

1588
01:21:29,580 --> 01:21:32,047
What do you think?
Aren't they beautiful?

1589
01:21:41,396 --> 01:21:43,363
We're getting down to the wire.

1590
01:21:44,399 --> 01:21:45,798
In five...

1591
01:21:45,834 --> 01:21:48,401
Four, three,

1592
01:21:48,470 --> 01:21:50,703
two, one!

1593
01:21:52,140 --> 01:21:53,806
And that's it, time's up, tools down!

1594
01:21:53,842 --> 01:21:55,041
Hands up.

1595
01:21:55,076 --> 01:21:58,144
Can I get the judges to the stage

1596
01:21:58,179 --> 01:22:00,179
with their score cards please?

1597
01:22:02,417 --> 01:22:05,518
I just want you to know
that no matter what happens

1598
01:22:05,553 --> 01:22:08,388
you made every Christmas wish
I had come true.

1599
01:22:08,423 --> 01:22:11,190
Emma, you are my Christmas wish.

1600
01:22:12,794 --> 01:22:14,754
Okay, folks, the judges have
made their decisions.

1601
01:22:14,778 --> 01:22:16,229
And...

1602
01:22:16,297 --> 01:22:17,897
it's unanimous.

1603
01:22:17,966 --> 01:22:19,198
Unanimous?

1604
01:22:19,234 --> 01:22:20,967
Folks, I'm pleased to announce

1605
01:22:21,002 --> 01:22:24,670
that the winner of the Westford
ice sculpting competition...

1606
01:22:26,141 --> 01:22:28,474
is Emma Parkers and Nick Claiborne!

1607
01:22:30,512 --> 01:22:33,045
For their sculpture called
"Memories of Westford".

1608
01:22:35,417 --> 01:22:36,382
We did it.

1609
01:22:36,418 --> 01:22:37,383
We did.

1610
01:22:42,657 --> 01:22:44,190
Oh, congratulations.

1611
01:22:44,225 --> 01:22:45,458
It's beautiful.

1612
01:22:45,493 --> 01:22:47,860
Well done, Nick.

1613
01:22:48,863 --> 01:22:50,897
We did it.

1614
01:22:50,965 --> 01:22:52,498
I knew you could do it.

1615
01:22:52,534 --> 01:22:53,866
Way to go, Nick.

1616
01:22:53,902 --> 01:22:55,701
Oh, my gosh.

1617
01:22:55,737 --> 01:22:57,804
Congrats. Wow.

1618
01:22:57,839 --> 01:22:59,305
Congratulations.

1619
01:22:59,340 --> 01:23:01,674
And, listen, I meant what I said.

1620
01:23:01,709 --> 01:23:03,749
If you ever want to test
your talents outside of law

1621
01:23:03,773 --> 01:23:06,045
we can certainly use you at the town.

1622
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:07,413
Oh.

1623
01:23:07,482 --> 01:23:10,149
Well, I just might
take you up on that.

1624
01:23:16,024 --> 01:23:17,356
What are you doing?

1625
01:23:17,392 --> 01:23:18,691
Da da dun nah!

1626
01:23:24,232 --> 01:23:25,832
Merry Christmas.

1627
01:23:25,867 --> 01:23:28,801
Merry Christmas, Nick.
