- Hey, gorgeous.
- Oh.
16
00:01:16,409 --> 00:01:19,870
Oh, did I do that?
Guess I'd better eat that one.
17
00:01:19,871 --> 00:01:21,163
If you keep thieving,
18
00:01:21,164 --> 00:01:24,083
I will be forced to take store-bought
to the Winter Festival,
19
00:01:24,084 --> 00:01:26,960
and untold generations of
Vreeland's cookies will be shamed.
20
00:01:26,961 --> 00:01:30,005
Besides, shouldn't you be outside
hanging lights in the trees?
21
00:01:30,006 --> 00:01:30,924
I'm done.
22
00:01:32,175 --> 00:01:33,342
Bless your heart.
23
00:01:33,343 --> 00:01:34,927
How am I so far behind?
24
00:01:34,928 --> 00:01:36,387
You're not behind.
25
00:01:37,055 --> 00:01:38,931
But you might be distracted.
26
00:01:38,932 --> 00:01:43,061
{\an8}By the million things that have to happen
in the week we have left before Christmas?
27
00:01:43,645 --> 00:01:45,146
{\an8}By that juicy job offer.
28
00:01:47,190 --> 00:01:48,108
Maddie.
29
00:01:49,442 --> 00:01:51,193
It's a great job.
30
00:01:51,194 --> 00:01:53,028
And you deserve it, and you'd be a star.
31
00:01:53,029 --> 00:01:54,364
It is perfect.
32
00:01:54,948 --> 00:01:57,699
Marketing and books combined.
33
00:01:57,700 --> 00:02:00,702
There are days where I think
that I like marketing Princess Katie
34
00:02:00,703 --> 00:02:02,579
more than I like writing it.
35
00:02:02,580 --> 00:02:06,292
And it would be so fun to help
other authors get their book noticed.
36
00:02:06,793 --> 00:02:08,127
And I'd be good at it.
37
00:02:08,128 --> 00:02:09,336
So what's the problem?
38
00:02:09,337 --> 00:02:12,506
I can't quite wrap my head around
moving to New York.
39
00:02:12,507 --> 00:02:14,258
I completely understand.
40
00:02:14,259 --> 00:02:16,844
New York would be a terrible place
for this family.
41
00:02:16,845 --> 00:02:20,597
I mean, your children are
a musician, an actor, and a dancer.
42
00:02:20,598 --> 00:02:21,640
Dancer/paleontologist.
43
00:02:21,641 --> 00:02:23,851
She needs to see
the American Museum of Natural History,
44
00:02:23,852 --> 00:02:25,352
even if she doesn't spend the night.
45
00:02:25,353 --> 00:02:26,646
- My mother.
- Yes.
46
00:02:27,522 --> 00:02:29,148
I understand your concern.
47
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:32,276
She's such a meek and sedentary woman,
48
00:02:32,277 --> 00:02:34,779
and her boyfriend
only travels to New York... What?
49
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,114
Once a month? Twice.
50
00:02:37,115 --> 00:02:39,450
I bet you Jimmy knows
every maître d' in the city.
51
00:02:39,951 --> 00:02:40,910
What about you?
52
00:02:41,578 --> 00:02:44,079
That's the real problem.
The Yankees didn't want me.
53
00:02:45,081 --> 00:02:47,499
And that hurt... for quite a while.
54
00:02:47,500 --> 00:02:48,584
But I'm over it now,
55
00:02:48,585 --> 00:02:51,003
and Erik and I can work out
an arrangement.
56
00:02:51,004 --> 00:02:52,713
I'll pop up periodically.
57
00:02:52,714 --> 00:02:55,675
Still, it would be such a big change.
58
00:02:56,176 --> 00:02:58,385
We haven't even had our honeymoon yet.
59
00:02:58,386 --> 00:03:00,221
It's just... It's not the right time.
60
00:03:00,847 --> 00:03:02,890
It's never just the right time.
61
00:03:02,891 --> 00:03:07,103
We make the best decisions we can...
and hope the timing works out.
62
00:03:07,687 --> 00:03:09,271
- I'll give it more thought.
- Hmm.
63
00:03:21,784 --> 00:03:24,411
That interview go any better
than the others?
64
00:03:24,412 --> 00:03:26,872
No candidate has met all our criteria,
65
00:03:26,873 --> 00:03:29,708
but we are confident
the right person is out there.
66
00:03:29,709 --> 00:03:31,211
- Mmm.
- Somewhere.
67
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:35,005
But we can't hire her
until she follows town protocol
68
00:03:35,006 --> 00:03:36,925
and submits her application.
69
00:03:37,550 --> 00:03:38,509
Henrietta.
70
00:03:40,428 --> 00:03:42,638
Are you asking me to apply?
71
00:03:42,639 --> 00:03:45,433
I'm pretty sure we're begging you.
72
00:03:46,017 --> 00:03:48,644
Through all this upheaval,
you have been steady
73
00:03:48,645 --> 00:03:52,106
and insightful and even innovative.
74
00:03:52,899 --> 00:03:56,693
You were... are key to our success.
75
00:03:56,694 --> 00:03:59,613
You'd be a great town manager.
76
00:03:59,614 --> 00:04:02,199
Never crossed my mind.
77
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,743
I've been in this chair so many years.
78
00:04:04,744 --> 00:04:07,371
We'll interview you the moment
you submit your paperwork.
79
00:04:07,372 --> 00:04:09,332
And then hire you ten minutes later.
80
00:04:10,083 --> 00:04:13,086
Well, who will be your assistant then?
81
00:04:14,587 --> 00:04:16,256
I don't know.
82
00:04:16,923 --> 00:04:19,841
Would you please interview
my sweet friend Zola in town planning?
83
00:04:19,842 --> 00:04:23,262
Zola's wonderful.
She'd be an excellent candidate.
84
00:04:23,263 --> 00:04:25,139
We'll post the job right away.
85
00:04:31,896 --> 00:04:32,980
Mom.
86
00:04:32,981 --> 00:04:35,483
Dana Sue, we will figure this out.
87
00:04:37,527 --> 00:04:40,320
I know this school's
more expensive than we were planning on,
88
00:04:40,321 --> 00:04:42,406
but I'll get a job, a scholarship.
89
00:04:42,407 --> 00:04:43,907
No. No, no, no, no.
90
00:04:43,908 --> 00:04:45,952
These are happy tears.
91
00:04:46,536 --> 00:04:49,705
I've been worried, and I've been anxious,
92
00:04:49,706 --> 00:04:54,418
and now that I know you're going,
I am so proud.
93
00:04:54,419 --> 00:04:56,004
And we'll find a way.
94
00:04:56,796 --> 00:04:58,463
Because we love each other,
95
00:04:58,464 --> 00:05:01,591
and we have faith in each other's dreams.
96
00:05:01,592 --> 00:05:02,885
Absolutely.
97
00:05:03,386 --> 00:05:07,597
And what matters more
than seeing you every night at dinner
98
00:05:07,598 --> 00:05:09,100
is seeing you happy.
99
00:05:10,476 --> 00:05:11,561
Thank you both.
100
00:05:12,061 --> 00:05:13,104
I love you.
101
00:05:14,564 --> 00:05:16,316
We love you too, Annie.
102
00:05:16,983 --> 00:05:17,816
Mmm.
103
00:05:20,778 --> 00:05:23,071
Slapping cranberries
and rosemary everywhere
104
00:05:23,072 --> 00:05:25,240
is not the way to make food Christmassy.
105
00:05:25,241 --> 00:05:28,076
Then peppermint and thyme.
106
00:05:29,579 --> 00:05:31,496
Our first customer of the day has arrived,
107
00:05:31,497 --> 00:05:34,000
and he has a complaint
about a takeout order.
108
00:05:34,709 --> 00:05:37,754
- No takeout orders have come in.
- You see why I'm puzzled.
109
00:05:46,596 --> 00:05:49,556
Yes, sir? Bailey said
you had a takeout problem.
110
00:05:49,557 --> 00:05:52,977
You haven't taken me out yet,
and that's a problem.
111
00:05:56,606 --> 00:05:58,440
If you had told me
you were coming back to town,
112
00:05:58,441 --> 00:06:00,817
I could have made plans
and solved that problem.
113
00:06:00,818 --> 00:06:03,111
I was trying to be spontaneous.
114
00:06:03,112 --> 00:06:05,030
It's a very new concept for me.
115
00:06:05,031 --> 00:06:08,283
To the point that I worked on this joke
for an hour and 45 minutes
116
00:06:08,284 --> 00:06:10,786
of the two hours it took me to drive here.
117
00:06:10,787 --> 00:06:12,914
It's a start. We can work on it.
118
00:06:13,623 --> 00:06:15,582
The date. Not the joke.
119
00:06:15,583 --> 00:06:17,125
The joke was pretty good.
120
00:06:23,132 --> 00:06:24,257
I won't fall.
121
00:06:24,258 --> 00:06:27,761
Yeah? Well, most people don't plan
to fall, but fall they do.
122
00:06:27,762 --> 00:06:30,430
Yeah, well,
I fall for you anew every morning.
123
00:06:30,431 --> 00:06:34,184
Mmm. Let's keep that up
for many mornings to come.
124
00:06:37,688 --> 00:06:38,606
The door.
125
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,275
I don't care if Santa Claus himself
is at the front door.
126
00:06:42,276 --> 00:06:44,694
We don't have to answer it.
He can squeeze down that chimney.
127
00:06:44,695 --> 00:06:46,447
Really? He'll crush the candles.
128
00:06:46,948 --> 00:06:49,867
And what if it's carolers or a package?
129
00:06:50,368 --> 00:06:52,870
A package. All right.
130
00:06:53,413 --> 00:06:54,287
An elf?
131
00:06:54,288 --> 00:06:55,288
I don't care.
132
00:06:55,289 --> 00:06:57,332
- A reindeer.
- They can leave a message.
133
00:06:57,333 --> 00:06:59,502
- A troll.
- Can move on.
134
00:07:00,294 --> 00:07:01,378
Might even be...
135
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,673
- Mama!
- Surprise!
136
00:07:07,844 --> 00:07:09,136
I told you she'd be surprised.
137
00:07:09,137 --> 00:07:11,346
I think shocked is the word.
138
00:07:11,347 --> 00:07:12,597
Erik!
139
00:07:12,598 --> 00:07:14,766
Did you two plan this together?
140
00:07:14,767 --> 00:07:18,479
Oh! Is... is this my something special
for Christmas?
141
00:07:19,522 --> 00:07:22,482
I can't quite believe it!
142
00:07:22,483 --> 00:07:26,446
It took a little bit of bargaining
with Zeke, but Erik persevered.
143
00:07:26,946 --> 00:07:28,989
You talked to my brother too.
144
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:32,576
Now we have to be in Tampa
for New Year's Eve, but it was worth it.
145
00:07:32,577 --> 00:07:36,329
You'd best keep an eye on this one.
He can be very persuasive.
146
00:07:36,330 --> 00:07:39,374
Oh, it's gonna be some kind of Christmas,
that's for sure.
147
00:07:42,295 --> 00:07:43,628
Sit there.
148
00:07:43,629 --> 00:07:45,464
Right in the middle.
149
00:07:45,465 --> 00:07:46,716
Okay.
150
00:07:47,717 --> 00:07:49,759
We have a presentation for you.
151
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,679
Kyle put it together, but we've added
some of our own thoughts.
152
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:53,889
Okay.
153
00:07:53,890 --> 00:07:58,393
This presentation is entitled
"Why Maddie Should Take The Job."
154
00:08:00,646 --> 00:08:02,981
Mom, you have always encouraged me,
155
00:08:02,982 --> 00:08:06,068
all of us, to seize opportunities
when they present themselves.
156
00:08:06,652 --> 00:08:08,945
It would be a shame
to let this massive one,
157
00:08:08,946 --> 00:08:11,115
which is so perfect for you, go by.
158
00:08:12,658 --> 00:08:14,785
I raised you to have faith.
159
00:08:15,536 --> 00:08:17,830
Know that we have faith in you.
160
00:08:18,706 --> 00:08:20,832
So you need to have faith in us
161
00:08:20,833 --> 00:08:24,085
and our ability
to take care of each other,
162
00:08:24,086 --> 00:08:26,005
whatever city people are in.
163
00:08:27,256 --> 00:08:30,675
You helped Beatriz realize
that hiding your talents is a waste.
164
00:08:30,676 --> 00:08:33,053
That talents are meant to be used,
165
00:08:33,054 --> 00:08:35,847
not just for yourself, but for others.
166
00:08:35,848 --> 00:08:39,769
And you've demonstrated that over and over
for family and friends.
167
00:08:40,603 --> 00:08:42,104
Why not do that for yourself now?
168
00:08:45,274 --> 00:08:47,275
You're my inspiration, Mommy.
169
00:08:47,276 --> 00:08:49,987
When I'm an adult,
I wanna have great adventures,
170
00:08:50,571 --> 00:08:52,822
whether I work in New York with publishers
171
00:08:52,823 --> 00:08:55,408
or go on paleontology digs in Argentina.
172
00:08:55,409 --> 00:08:58,119
And I know I'll be able to be brave.
173
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,996
'Cause you've always been brave.
174
00:08:59,997 --> 00:09:03,250
Like when Daddy left,
or you started the recall,
175
00:09:03,251 --> 00:09:04,543
or this new job.
176
00:09:04,544 --> 00:09:06,127
So what do you say?
177
00:09:06,128 --> 00:09:07,796
Well, I'm very worried.
178
00:09:07,797 --> 00:09:11,091
No, this was supposed
to make you feel better.
179
00:09:11,092 --> 00:09:14,553
But it was such
an effective marketing presentation.
180
00:09:14,554 --> 00:09:17,847
I'm thinking... you all should get the job.
181
00:09:17,848 --> 00:09:20,225
Oh!
182
00:09:20,226 --> 00:09:21,727
Had me going there, Mom.
183
00:09:22,353 --> 00:09:25,022
Thank you... so much
184
00:09:25,565 --> 00:09:28,693
for the thought and love
that you put into this.
185
00:09:35,157 --> 00:09:36,492
I guess I'll accept.
186
00:09:37,660 --> 00:09:38,953
Oh!
187
00:09:42,915 --> 00:09:44,916
♪ We wish you
A Merry Christmas ♪
188
00:09:44,917 --> 00:09:49,337
♪ We wish you a Merry Christmas ♪
189
00:09:49,338 --> 00:09:52,340
♪ And a Happy New Year ♪
190
00:09:53,342 --> 00:09:54,884
Merry Christmas, Annie!
191
00:09:54,885 --> 00:09:58,722
You have five minutes to hug him,
kiss him, and tell him how great he looks,
192
00:09:58,723 --> 00:10:01,767
and then I have to take him to his mother.
I will be in the truck.
193
00:10:02,351 --> 00:10:04,061
Thanks, Olivia.
194
00:10:04,687 --> 00:10:05,562
Welcome home.
195
00:10:05,563 --> 00:10:06,856
Thank you.
196
00:10:10,735 --> 00:10:12,569
Uh, you came here before you went home?
197
00:10:12,570 --> 00:10:13,820
That is such a compliment,
198
00:10:13,821 --> 00:10:15,989
but you aren't supposed to be here
until tomorrow.
199
00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:17,699
- I can leave.
- No.
200
00:10:17,700 --> 00:10:20,619
Liv and I decided it was worth driving
through the night to get home early
201
00:10:20,620 --> 00:10:21,995
and surprise everyone.
202
00:10:21,996 --> 00:10:26,291
Oh, I'm surprised and excited and happy
and can't wait to hear all about it.
203
00:10:26,292 --> 00:10:27,709
I've been texting.
204
00:10:27,710 --> 00:10:30,337
I still want to hear it all,
day by day, from you.
205
00:10:30,338 --> 00:10:34,090
And I have a bunch of stuff to tell you.
Big stuff, great stuff.
206
00:10:34,091 --> 00:10:35,342
Me too.
207
00:10:35,343 --> 00:10:36,885
But you've gotta go.
208
00:10:36,886 --> 00:10:39,262
- What? No. No, I just got here.
- Olivia's waiting.
209
00:10:39,263 --> 00:10:41,264
And you wanna get home
to surprise your mom
210
00:10:41,265 --> 00:10:43,516
before someone sees you and spoils it all.
211
00:10:43,517 --> 00:10:45,268
This is Serenity, after all.
212
00:10:45,269 --> 00:10:48,396
Besides, now that you're home,
we have nothing but time.
213
00:10:50,441 --> 00:10:51,317
I love you.
214
00:10:52,443 --> 00:10:53,486
I love you too.
215
00:11:10,711 --> 00:11:14,215
This is amazing.
The first steps to our mobile clinic.
216
00:11:15,091 --> 00:11:17,509
And thank you again
for believing in this project,
217
00:11:17,510 --> 00:11:20,804
as our friends, and as the Foundation.
218
00:11:20,805 --> 00:11:23,181
- You'll do the Foundation proud.
- Mm-hmm.
219
00:11:23,182 --> 00:11:25,643
I need to go one step further.
220
00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:29,646
Thanks to all four of you
for helping me become the woman
221
00:11:29,647 --> 00:11:32,399
I dreamed of being
when I first arrived in Serenity.
222
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,234
We are so happy for you, Noreen.
223
00:11:34,235 --> 00:11:35,694
And for you, Howie.
224
00:11:35,695 --> 00:11:38,279
Much appreciated.
225
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,825
And don't you worry, I will find someone
to fill the spa schedule,
226
00:11:41,826 --> 00:11:44,327
especially since Carla might be
going back to the library,
227
00:11:44,328 --> 00:11:47,497
since y'all are doing such a great job
getting that up and going.
228
00:11:47,498 --> 00:11:50,083
Yeah.
Well, we'd welcome your input.
229
00:11:50,084 --> 00:11:53,128
We're just happy that you're still
gonna be with us part-time.
230
00:11:54,088 --> 00:11:56,172
Thanks again. Talk to you soon.
231
00:11:56,173 --> 00:11:57,091
- Bye.
- Bye.
232
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,635
We have such a gift for recognizing
and nurturing talent.
233
00:12:00,636 --> 00:12:03,431
We're gonna wind up short-staffed.
234
00:12:04,181 --> 00:12:07,560
Especially because
I've been offered a job.
235
00:12:08,269 --> 00:12:09,102
What?
236
00:12:09,103 --> 00:12:10,979
At a publishing house.
237
00:12:10,980 --> 00:12:12,440
- What?
- What?
238
00:12:13,482 --> 00:12:14,775
In Manhattan.
239
00:12:18,779 --> 00:12:21,782
Manhattan, South Carolina?
240
00:12:24,285 --> 00:12:26,327
There's no Manhattan in South Carolina.
241
00:12:26,328 --> 00:12:28,164
I know. I was just hoping.
242
00:12:30,291 --> 00:12:34,044
How long
are you gonna be gone?
243
00:12:35,463 --> 00:12:36,630
It's hard to say.
244
00:12:38,591 --> 00:12:41,760
Will the whole family go
with you?
245
00:12:41,761 --> 00:12:43,846
Um, I don't know.
246
00:12:45,055 --> 00:12:48,850
The details of moving have been, um,
a little overwhelming,
247
00:12:48,851 --> 00:12:51,479
and I... I wanted to talk to both of you
248
00:12:52,271 --> 00:12:55,274
in person about the spa and everything.
249
00:12:57,067 --> 00:12:58,985
I probably shouldn't take it.
250
00:12:58,986 --> 00:13:01,488
It was just... It was nice to be asked.
251
00:13:01,489 --> 00:13:02,782
No. No, no, no.
252
00:13:03,574 --> 00:13:04,824
You should take it.
253
00:13:04,825 --> 00:13:07,077
Uh, what will you be doing for 'em?
254
00:13:07,661 --> 00:13:08,788
Marketing.
255
00:13:09,622 --> 00:13:10,914
Back to your degree?
256
00:13:10,915 --> 00:13:12,750
- Yeah.
- Perfect.
257
00:13:14,043 --> 00:13:14,877
Um,
258
00:13:16,128 --> 00:13:17,962
I'm no longer at town hall,
259
00:13:17,963 --> 00:13:21,424
so I... I can cover here
while we... we figure out a replacement.
260
00:13:21,425 --> 00:13:23,843
No, no. No, I'll... I'll cover.
261
00:13:23,844 --> 00:13:27,555
Ronnie and I have been talking about ways
to make everyone's dreams work.
262
00:13:27,556 --> 00:13:29,683
I'm not limiting that to just my family.
263
00:13:30,601 --> 00:13:32,519
The dreams of the people you love
should be
264
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,355
as important as your own dreams.
265
00:13:35,356 --> 00:13:39,109
But you be prepared to spend
half your day on the phone with your job
266
00:13:39,610 --> 00:13:41,444
and the other half on the phone with us.
267
00:13:42,446 --> 00:13:45,573
Because we're going to need to know
every tiny detail
268
00:13:45,574 --> 00:13:47,575
of every...
269
00:13:47,576 --> 00:13:49,203
...of every big thing that happens.
270
00:13:52,122 --> 00:13:53,998
We're gonna miss you
something fierce.
271
00:13:58,254 --> 00:14:00,005
God bless you both.
272
00:14:08,305 --> 00:14:09,598
Oh, hi, baby girl.
273
00:14:12,434 --> 00:14:13,852
Oh, no, no, no, no. Don't. Don't.
274
00:14:13,853 --> 00:14:16,855
If you sit across from me,
you block my view of the kitchen.
275
00:14:20,442 --> 00:14:24,612
And here I thought
that you wanted to see the new decor
276
00:14:24,613 --> 00:14:26,407
and sample the new menu.
277
00:14:28,909 --> 00:14:33,413
It is my responsibility as your mother
to get a sense of this man.
278
00:14:33,414 --> 00:14:38,878
Mama, I assure you that
I have checked Erik out pretty thoroughly.
279
00:14:42,798 --> 00:14:45,174
I don't care if you had him vetted
by the NSA.
280
00:14:46,093 --> 00:14:49,889
A mother must be vigilant when it comes to
the happiness of her child.
281
00:14:50,389 --> 00:14:53,766
And such vigilance
can only be construed as meddling
282
00:14:53,767 --> 00:14:56,352
if it turns out that that mother is wrong.
283
00:14:56,353 --> 00:14:58,856
- But when was the last time that happened?
- Mmm.
284
00:14:59,899 --> 00:15:02,568
I don't think town records
go back that far.
285
00:15:09,450 --> 00:15:13,494
Mmm! His scores just keep climbing.
286
00:15:13,495 --> 00:15:15,289
- Mmm, mmm, mmm.
- Mama!
287
00:15:20,044 --> 00:15:22,587
Iris, I am so sorry.
288
00:15:22,588 --> 00:15:24,923
I thought we had eggs in the fridge.
289
00:15:24,924 --> 00:15:26,842
I hope
that the cookie dough won't--
290
00:15:27,843 --> 00:15:28,843
Hi, Mom!
291
00:15:33,557 --> 00:15:35,351
Good thing we do have eggs.
292
00:15:35,893 --> 00:15:38,102
I don't suppose we can make
Ty clean this up?
293
00:15:38,103 --> 00:15:40,772
Oh! I am so glad you're home.
294
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:43,358
I am so happy to be back.
295
00:15:43,359 --> 00:15:45,401
Okay, now that that's done...
296
00:15:45,402 --> 00:15:47,695
Katie, give them a moment.
297
00:15:47,696 --> 00:15:50,741
We've been waiting for you to finish
the Christmas village.
298
00:15:51,825 --> 00:15:52,660
Hmm.
299
00:15:53,327 --> 00:15:55,495
- Where's a good place?
- Where it was last year.
300
00:15:55,496 --> 00:15:57,997
It's okay if Ty changes things, remember?
301
00:15:57,998 --> 00:16:01,209
It was in a good spot last year,
right in the heart of the village.
302
00:16:01,210 --> 00:16:03,629
Katie, your hot cocoa's ready.
303
00:16:07,216 --> 00:16:09,634
I am so proud of you.
304
00:16:09,635 --> 00:16:11,636
Your first tour.
305
00:16:11,637 --> 00:16:14,430
Bonus points
for coming home healthy and happy.
306
00:16:14,431 --> 00:16:16,182
You are happy, aren't you?
307
00:16:16,183 --> 00:16:19,268
Oh, so happy, and I have lots and lots
to tell you, all of you,
308
00:16:19,269 --> 00:16:22,397
but I don't wanna start off
on the wrong foot with Princess Katie
309
00:16:22,398 --> 00:16:23,899
and not get my house set up.
310
00:16:24,900 --> 00:16:28,236
She didn't leave as much room in
the heart of town as she thinks she did.
311
00:16:28,237 --> 00:16:29,612
Things change.
312
00:16:29,613 --> 00:16:31,155
Stories change.
313
00:16:31,156 --> 00:16:33,741
People have kept moving here too
while you were on the road.
314
00:16:33,742 --> 00:16:37,745
That's something you have to get used to
if... touring's what you wanna do.
315
00:16:37,746 --> 00:16:38,956
It is.
316
00:16:39,498 --> 00:16:40,915
- It really is.
- Yeah?
317
00:16:40,916 --> 00:16:44,961
And... this doesn't sound completely real,
318
00:16:44,962 --> 00:16:50,508
but... we got an awesome offer
from a band we played with in Nashville.
319
00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:53,469
They want us to tour with them.
Open for them.
320
00:16:53,470 --> 00:16:55,221
How thrilling!
321
00:16:55,222 --> 00:16:56,932
In Europe.
322
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:03,312
I was, uh, I was expecting
you were gonna say New York.
323
00:17:03,313 --> 00:17:04,564
Why?
324
00:17:04,565 --> 00:17:06,775
Because I might have a job there.
325
00:17:08,193 --> 00:17:11,571
- Go, Mom! Tell me!
- After dinner.
326
00:17:11,572 --> 00:17:13,406
But what I wanna tell you
right this second is
327
00:17:13,407 --> 00:17:15,658
it's fine that our stories are changing
328
00:17:15,659 --> 00:17:19,413
because all that matters is
the people that love us, support us.
329
00:17:19,913 --> 00:17:21,665
Everything else, details.
330
00:17:26,295 --> 00:17:29,088
Isn't peace on earth and goodwill to all
a little vague?
331
00:17:29,089 --> 00:17:31,258
I already made a link.
332
00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:35,011
That my mother, Miss Paula,
Miss Iris, and Miss Grace
333
00:17:35,012 --> 00:17:39,515
all being out on the town together
does not end with a call for bail money.
334
00:17:41,185 --> 00:17:42,018
- Ooh!
- Yes!
335
00:17:42,019 --> 00:17:43,062
Look at these.
336
00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:45,647
- Pour it out.
- Pour it out.
337
00:17:46,607 --> 00:17:48,399
Beautiful.
338
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,568
Cheers.
339
00:17:52,905 --> 00:17:55,198
And I made a link
340
00:17:55,199 --> 00:17:58,576
wishing your teaching kitchen
comes to a quick fruition,
341
00:17:58,577 --> 00:18:02,121
and one wishing Maddie
an excellent deal package
342
00:18:02,122 --> 00:18:03,998
from her new job in New York.
343
00:18:03,999 --> 00:18:06,375
Careful what you wish for others.
344
00:18:06,376 --> 00:18:08,836
They just sent the deal memo over
a couple hours ago.
345
00:18:08,837 --> 00:18:10,046
That's fantastic.
346
00:18:10,047 --> 00:18:11,506
I wouldn't go that far.
347
00:18:11,507 --> 00:18:15,052
It's not quite the dazzling offer
I'd allowed myself to imagine.
348
00:18:15,803 --> 00:18:18,763
So I'm not sure it's worth the upheaval.
349
00:18:18,764 --> 00:18:20,848
How have we been friends
all these years,
350
00:18:20,849 --> 00:18:24,978
and you are yet to learn
the power of a strong counteroffer? Hmm?
351
00:18:25,854 --> 00:18:29,774
Hmm. May I see that proposed deal memo?
Come on.
352
00:18:29,775 --> 00:18:32,276
No, I do not want business
to get in the way of
353
00:18:32,277 --> 00:18:34,278
our tree-decorating margarita night.
354
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:37,241
- Oh dear. Is the offer that bad?
- Give it to me.
355
00:18:41,453 --> 00:18:45,249
You need to know your worth, dear heart,
and make sure that these people do too.
356
00:18:45,749 --> 00:18:47,583
So begin however you'd begin.
357
00:18:51,004 --> 00:18:53,548
Not "thank you very much."
Just "thank you."
358
00:18:53,549 --> 00:18:54,674
You don't wanna sound happy
359
00:18:54,675 --> 00:18:56,968
when you tell them
they're not offering enough money.
360
00:18:56,969 --> 00:18:58,845
But they're a small publisher.
361
00:18:58,846 --> 00:19:01,556
They're offering you 20% less
than they can afford,
362
00:19:01,557 --> 00:19:03,349
knowing that we're gonna counter at 40,
363
00:19:03,350 --> 00:19:05,977
so when they give you the 20,
they can feel like they've won.
364
00:19:05,978 --> 00:19:07,812
Plus, New York's expensive.
365
00:19:07,813 --> 00:19:10,732
Yeah. Look, know your worth.
366
00:19:11,775 --> 00:19:15,486
We will also request
one long weekend per quarter
367
00:19:15,487 --> 00:19:19,949
to accommodate visiting best friends
for Manhattan margarita nights.
368
00:19:19,950 --> 00:19:21,242
Wouldn't that be great?
369
00:19:21,243 --> 00:19:22,410
Epic.
370
00:19:22,411 --> 00:19:24,913
Now, read what I actually wrote.
371
00:19:26,665 --> 00:19:29,959
It's such a delicious feeling,
claiming what you deserve.
372
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,211
Yeah, and you know why it's delicious?
373
00:19:32,212 --> 00:19:34,630
Because we don't do it often enough.
374
00:19:34,631 --> 00:19:36,383
This is wonderful, Helen.
375
00:19:37,551 --> 00:19:38,427
Hit send.
376
00:19:41,263 --> 00:19:44,098
So am I going about
the teaching kitchen the wrong way?
377
00:19:44,099 --> 00:19:47,810
I've been trying to find a corner
to tuck it into,
378
00:19:47,811 --> 00:19:49,562
tuck myself into.
379
00:19:49,563 --> 00:19:53,858
Maybe I should plant myself in town square
and make sure everyone understands
380
00:19:53,859 --> 00:19:57,403
the value that...
that this could bring to Serenity.
381
00:19:57,404 --> 00:19:58,321
Do it.
382
00:19:58,322 --> 00:20:01,574
We could even create
a Magnolia Community Foundation building
383
00:20:01,575 --> 00:20:03,910
with the teaching kitchen as part of it.
384
00:20:03,911 --> 00:20:05,495
Ronnie's talked to...
385
00:20:06,538 --> 00:20:11,375
Uh, Ronnie's talked to Alexander about
386
00:20:11,376 --> 00:20:15,047
coming back to town... to help.
387
00:20:17,216 --> 00:20:19,967
To... help. Just to help.
388
00:20:19,968 --> 00:20:21,053
Dana Sue.
389
00:20:21,762 --> 00:20:22,595
Helen.
390
00:20:22,596 --> 00:20:24,597
May I... May I say...
391
00:20:24,598 --> 00:20:25,514
Yeah.
392
00:20:25,515 --> 00:20:27,975
...how... how gracious it is...
393
00:20:27,976 --> 00:20:28,893
Mm-hmm.
394
00:20:28,894 --> 00:20:32,772
...that you are worried about saying
Alexander's name in front of me?
395
00:20:32,773 --> 00:20:36,025
Did you miss the full-page ad
396
00:20:36,026 --> 00:20:39,654
I took out in the Sentinel
proclaiming my love for Erik Whitley?
397
00:20:39,655 --> 00:20:42,031
Oh, that's a great idea.
398
00:20:42,032 --> 00:20:44,533
I still don't know
what I'm getting Cal for Christmas.
399
00:20:44,534 --> 00:20:45,661
I want all of us,
400
00:20:46,245 --> 00:20:48,037
and our darling men,
401
00:20:48,038 --> 00:20:51,415
to... promise to go into this Christmas
like children.
402
00:20:51,416 --> 00:20:53,918
Hearts and... and eyes wide open.
403
00:20:53,919 --> 00:20:56,379
- Believing that anything is possible.
- Mm-hmm.
404
00:20:56,380 --> 00:21:00,591
That we deserve
every good thing that we wish for.
405
00:21:00,592 --> 00:21:05,638
No more... no more leaning away
from towering expectations
406
00:21:05,639 --> 00:21:08,183
because we're afraid of heights.
407
00:21:09,559 --> 00:21:11,895
Here's to believing
great things are possible
408
00:21:12,479 --> 00:21:14,480
because we believe in each other.
409
00:21:14,481 --> 00:21:15,399
Yeah.
410
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:17,608
Cheers.
411
00:21:28,620 --> 00:21:29,621
You made this?
412
00:21:30,163 --> 00:21:32,165
With a little coaching from Dad.
413
00:21:34,835 --> 00:21:36,211
Annie, it's beautiful.
414
00:21:36,837 --> 00:21:39,213
Really beautiful. Thank you.
415
00:21:39,214 --> 00:21:41,799
You can use it for whatever you want,
but I was thinking lyrics.
416
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:42,717
Lyrics?
417
00:21:48,890 --> 00:21:49,725
Okay.
418
00:22:01,403 --> 00:22:02,404
Ty,
419
00:22:04,114 --> 00:22:05,448
it's beautiful.
420
00:22:05,449 --> 00:22:08,617
We were wandering around Knoxville
and I walked into this antique shop,
421
00:22:08,618 --> 00:22:11,203
and the guy there said
this was a really good camera for film
422
00:22:11,204 --> 00:22:12,706
because, you know, I don't--
423
00:22:16,710 --> 00:22:17,753
It's incredible.
424
00:22:18,879 --> 00:22:22,549
And what's even more incredible is
how much you support me and my art.
425
00:22:23,050 --> 00:22:25,593
Just like you do with me and my music.
426
00:22:25,594 --> 00:22:27,846
Which is why
427
00:22:28,472 --> 00:22:31,099
I... am so excited to tell you
428
00:22:32,851 --> 00:22:36,313
I got accepted into
Monterey Institute for the Arts.
429
00:22:36,813 --> 00:22:37,646
Oh.
430
00:22:37,647 --> 00:22:40,983
The huge art school I never thought
in a million years would accept me.
431
00:22:40,984 --> 00:22:45,196
And even though it's way more expensive
than anywhere else I looked at,
432
00:22:45,197 --> 00:22:47,156
my parents are helping me
figure out a way to go.
433
00:22:47,157 --> 00:22:49,117
So I won't be home as often,
434
00:22:49,618 --> 00:22:51,827
but maybe you can come to California.
435
00:22:51,828 --> 00:22:54,163
Maybe you and the band
can do gigs in California.
436
00:22:54,164 --> 00:22:55,749
Wouldn't that be awesome?
437
00:22:56,666 --> 00:22:58,751
I'm sorry. I know it's a lot,
438
00:22:58,752 --> 00:23:02,046
but I wanted to tell you face-to-face,
and it's been building up.
439
00:23:02,047 --> 00:23:03,881
We'll make it work. I know we will.
440
00:23:03,882 --> 00:23:05,592
I am so proud of you.
441
00:23:07,219 --> 00:23:08,303
And I love you
442
00:23:10,013 --> 00:23:11,223
so much.
443
00:23:13,100 --> 00:23:14,476
We will make it work.
444
00:23:15,185 --> 00:23:16,103
I love you too.

Christmas cookies,
hot chocolate, cherry bounce.
453

Looking good, Bailey.

00:23:49,678 --> 00:23:52,346

Christmas cookies.
457
00:23:58,186 --> 00:23:59,603
I can't decide.
458
00:23:59,604 --> 00:24:01,439
Well, good education lifts us all,
459
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,774
so why don't we just give it
to the school system?
460
00:24:03,775 --> 00:24:06,819
Whoa, whoa. As an avid hiker,
I'd like to speak on behalf of the river.
461
00:24:06,820 --> 00:24:07,736
Hey.
462
00:24:07,737 --> 00:24:10,448
You can fill that jar up to the brim
and still not find anyone
463
00:24:10,449 --> 00:24:12,366
to clean up the parks
for that kind of money.
464
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:14,785
Not the conversation
we need to be having right now, CJ.
465
00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:17,288
Uh, are you Clayton Camp's boy?
466
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:18,414
Yes, ma'am.
467
00:24:18,415 --> 00:24:21,292
Mmm. I thought I recognized
that cold curl of the lip.
468
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:22,376
Mama.
469
00:24:22,377 --> 00:24:24,753
- You all talking about the parks?
- In a way.
470
00:24:24,754 --> 00:24:28,967
Our group has been discussing
turning our avocation into a vocation.
471
00:24:29,468 --> 00:24:32,094
Let Mayor Peggy know we'll put in a bid
on the park cleanup
472
00:24:32,095 --> 00:24:33,345
for whatever is raised here.
473
00:24:33,346 --> 00:24:35,222
That is so generous of you, Ali.
474
00:24:35,223 --> 00:24:36,641
- Uh, here.
- Oh.
475
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:39,643
Oh!
476
00:24:39,644 --> 00:24:42,105
Thanks, Bev. Thank you.
477
00:24:43,690 --> 00:24:47,651
Now that is how you do business,
young man. From the heart.

All right? Almost there.
You're doing great.
481
00:25:02,792 --> 00:25:03,627
Right.
482
00:25:04,169 --> 00:25:05,711
Okay. Sit here.
483
00:25:05,712 --> 00:25:07,714
It's the bench right behind you.
484
00:25:08,507 --> 00:25:09,340
Trust me.
485
00:25:09,341 --> 00:25:10,257
I do.
486
00:25:10,258 --> 00:25:12,636
Or... I did.
487
00:25:13,970 --> 00:25:17,139
Until you started dragging me
around town all day on this sweet,
488
00:25:17,140 --> 00:25:19,808
but frankly
kind of demented scavenger hunt.
489
00:25:19,809 --> 00:25:23,729
And while I appreciate the chance
to remember the first place we kissed,
490
00:25:23,730 --> 00:25:27,024
and the first place
we stared at the moon together,
491
00:25:27,025 --> 00:25:29,903
and the first place
I threatened to vanquish you in D&D,
492
00:25:30,445 --> 00:25:34,533
all I want for Christmas is a day
where we can just focus on each other.
493
00:25:35,033 --> 00:25:38,078
Why are you being so extra?
What's going on? Just tell me.
494
00:25:40,789 --> 00:25:42,332
Sucks, I told you.
495
00:25:51,091 --> 00:25:53,093
Sorry for going over the top.
496
00:25:54,427 --> 00:25:58,098
I'm all for a drama, Kyle,
but... this feels like something else.
497
00:25:59,015 --> 00:25:59,849
Yeah.
498
00:26:00,433 --> 00:26:01,268
It is.
499
00:26:01,768 --> 00:26:02,810
It's nerves.
500
00:26:02,811 --> 00:26:04,020
What? Why?
501
00:26:04,938 --> 00:26:06,898
You mean so much to me.
502
00:26:07,482 --> 00:26:09,733
I wanna make
every moment we have together spectacular
503
00:26:09,734 --> 00:26:11,902
so you'll have a thousand great memories
504
00:26:11,903 --> 00:26:14,197
to sustain you
when you go away for college in the fall.
505
00:26:15,323 --> 00:26:17,867
Maybe we can just start with
a thousand kisses.
506
00:26:25,875 --> 00:26:29,378
"The dragon replied,
'I wanna be important to you too.'"
507
00:26:29,379 --> 00:26:31,088
"Princess Katie understood now."
508
00:26:31,089 --> 00:26:35,301
"Perhaps there is something that we could
offer you that would make us all happy."
509
00:26:35,302 --> 00:26:36,635
"The dragon replied,
510
00:26:36,636 --> 00:26:41,141
'What I want most in the world
is friends to share stories with.'"
511
00:26:43,226 --> 00:26:45,019
No, don't stop there.
512
00:26:45,020 --> 00:26:47,938
We have to, Abigail.
The book isn't finished yet.
513
00:26:47,939 --> 00:26:49,773
But you can pre-order it here,
514
00:26:49,774 --> 00:26:53,153
and all of the proceeds will go to
the library when the book comes out.
515
00:26:56,698 --> 00:26:57,907
Ah.
516
00:27:02,078 --> 00:27:03,495
Wait, did you make a wish?
517
00:27:03,496 --> 00:27:04,705
What?
518
00:27:04,706 --> 00:27:07,958
Other than I hope I don't humiliate myself
with this throw, no.
519
00:27:07,959 --> 00:27:11,420
Dad always told me
that ring toss is about wishing
520
00:27:11,421 --> 00:27:16,009
and making a good throw
and seeing if your wish comes true.
521
00:27:16,718 --> 00:27:18,637
Like birthday candles.
522
00:27:19,846 --> 00:27:21,014
Like life.
523
00:27:27,896 --> 00:27:30,732
So this is Serenity
at the holidays.
524
00:27:31,608 --> 00:27:32,734
It's wonderful.
525
00:27:33,234 --> 00:27:35,779
Genuine, heartfelt, and...
526
00:27:36,780 --> 00:27:37,989
so charming.
527
00:27:40,075 --> 00:27:42,118
So I've been meaning to ask you,
528
00:27:42,911 --> 00:27:44,370
do you cook at all?
529
00:27:44,371 --> 00:27:46,830
Coming from a chef,
this has to be a trick question.
530
00:27:46,831 --> 00:27:48,625
Not a trick.
531
00:27:49,167 --> 00:27:51,795
More a segue to a different conversation.
532
00:27:53,046 --> 00:27:57,424
Where are you
on a scale of "I can boil water"
533
00:27:57,425 --> 00:28:00,386
to "I can make baked Alaska from memory"?
534
00:28:00,387 --> 00:28:02,681
- That's the scale?
- For the moment.
535
00:28:03,306 --> 00:28:05,225
Um, oh, okay.
536
00:28:05,725 --> 00:28:06,559
Truth.
537
00:28:07,185 --> 00:28:10,562
I'm lucky to be at
the "I can boil water" level.
538
00:28:10,563 --> 00:28:12,607
That's fine. That's fine.
539
00:28:14,484 --> 00:28:15,944
But do you like it?
540
00:28:17,404 --> 00:28:19,739
Once the water finally starts boiling.
541
00:28:30,250 --> 00:28:31,084
Ooh.
542
00:28:31,876 --> 00:28:33,086
Um...
543
00:28:38,633 --> 00:28:39,551
It worked.

545
00:28:42,470 --> 00:28:44,889

What do you think, Erik?
558
00:29:32,270 --> 00:29:33,271
- Mmm.
- Hmm.
559
00:29:34,147 --> 00:29:35,523
What's wrong with them?
560
00:29:40,153 --> 00:29:41,278
They're wonderful. What's wrong?
561
00:29:41,279 --> 00:29:43,948
- They need to be a little--
- Sweeter. Mm-hmm.
562
00:29:44,949 --> 00:29:48,076
How did I agree to bake with experts?
They're plenty sweet.
563
00:29:48,077 --> 00:29:49,787
Just a... Just a touch, sweetheart.
564
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:51,623
Mmm. I have just the thing.
565
00:29:52,999 --> 00:29:56,293
- Oh, ice. Ice is exactly what they need.
- Ice?
566
00:29:56,294 --> 00:29:58,713
I'm gonna go to the dining room
and get the ice bucket.
567
00:29:59,631 --> 00:30:04,802
Wait, you... you don't put ice on cookies.
568
00:30:04,803 --> 00:30:05,970
No, you don't.
569
00:30:08,848 --> 00:30:10,433
You put it on the baker's hand.
570
00:30:17,357 --> 00:30:20,609
But only if she accepts the invitation
to spend the rest of our lives
571
00:30:20,610 --> 00:30:24,279
perfecting the recipe for love, joy,
572
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,324
and mutual respect.
573
00:30:27,659 --> 00:30:28,493
I know.
574
00:30:29,327 --> 00:30:30,203
It's fast.
575
00:30:31,746 --> 00:30:33,289
Maybe even a little crazy.
576
00:30:33,790 --> 00:30:36,291
But I cannot let another moment pass
without letting you know
577
00:30:36,292 --> 00:30:38,837
how much I yearn for you to be my wife.
578
00:30:40,380 --> 00:30:41,506
My partner.
579
00:30:42,048 --> 00:30:43,174
My soulmate.
580
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:46,761
Forever.
581
00:30:50,098 --> 00:30:51,432
My hands...
582
00:30:52,225 --> 00:30:55,019
My hands are shaking,
and I... I don't wanna drop it.
583
00:30:55,728 --> 00:30:57,397
And it's cold. I...
584
00:31:04,612 --> 00:31:06,155
Helen.
585
00:31:07,156 --> 00:31:08,241
- Will you--
- Yes.
586
00:31:10,743 --> 00:31:11,578
Yes.
587
00:31:12,328 --> 00:31:13,413
Yes.
588
00:31:14,497 --> 00:31:15,748
Yes.
589
00:31:17,959 --> 00:31:18,834
Yes.
590
00:31:20,795 --> 00:31:21,963
Yes.
591
00:31:22,881 --> 00:31:24,464
Call Maddie and Dana Sue.
592
00:31:24,465 --> 00:31:26,174
I can't. I can't.
593
00:31:26,175 --> 00:31:30,179
I'm afraid if I share all this joy,
I'll explode, and then I'll shatter and...
594
00:31:30,972 --> 00:31:33,099
Oh, um, oh! Hold on.
595
00:31:36,144 --> 00:31:39,272
I... I know when I'll tell them,
but... but right now, um...
596
00:31:41,274 --> 00:31:42,609
you need to open this.
597
00:31:50,325 --> 00:31:53,077
It's your vase that I so carelessly broke.
598
00:31:54,996 --> 00:31:59,249
Naomi Webster was telling me about
stomping on the glass
599
00:31:59,250 --> 00:32:01,628
at her wedding to Priya.
600
00:32:02,712 --> 00:32:03,713
They said,
601
00:32:04,923 --> 00:32:08,051
"May this be the last thing
that shatters between us."
602
00:32:12,555 --> 00:32:14,056
You mended it?
603
00:32:14,057 --> 00:32:15,516
It's called kintsugi.
604
00:32:16,476 --> 00:32:19,812
It's a Japanese process
the jeweler in Egret Falls does.
605
00:32:20,980 --> 00:32:24,525
- The gold... reminds us that
- Mmm.
606
00:32:25,318 --> 00:32:27,320
...things can be even more beautiful
607
00:32:28,154 --> 00:32:29,572
after they're broken.
608
00:32:32,909 --> 00:32:35,119
We've been through hard things...
609
00:32:35,870 --> 00:32:37,371
...together and separately.
610
00:32:37,372 --> 00:32:38,581
I have faith
611
00:32:39,999 --> 00:32:42,501
that we can make each other stronger.
612
00:32:42,502 --> 00:32:43,419
Hmm.
613
00:32:43,962 --> 00:32:45,797
For millennia.
614
00:32:47,465 --> 00:32:48,716
Because you let me.
615
00:32:55,390 --> 00:32:57,140
Am I too early?
616
00:32:57,141 --> 00:32:59,810
Oh, Mama. How long have you known?
617
00:33:00,728 --> 00:33:05,273
Ooh! Did you really think I came here
for an ordinary Christmas celebration?
618
00:33:05,274 --> 00:33:06,525
Aw.
619
00:33:06,526 --> 00:33:10,696
This beautiful man called me
and asked me if he could come to Tampa
620
00:33:10,697 --> 00:33:14,367
so that I could interview him...
to bless this.
621
00:33:14,867 --> 00:33:17,411
As though I still
don't have spies in Serenity
622
00:33:17,412 --> 00:33:20,622
who keep me... up on the goings-on.
623
00:33:20,623 --> 00:33:22,290
- What?
- What?
624
00:33:22,291 --> 00:33:24,960
But I told him that that call
was all I needed,
625
00:33:24,961 --> 00:33:27,087
but that I had to be there
when it happened.
626
00:33:27,088 --> 00:33:29,507
- Hmm.
- Mmm.
627
00:33:31,050 --> 00:33:33,886
Listen, I know how precious love is
628
00:33:34,387 --> 00:33:36,848
and how it can be taken away
from you too quickly,
629
00:33:37,432 --> 00:33:40,434
and I'm glad that you're trusting
your hearts and each other.
630
00:33:52,196 --> 00:33:53,740
This is so beautiful.
631
00:33:54,407 --> 00:33:55,241
My look?
632
00:33:56,451 --> 00:33:57,285
Life.
633
00:34:02,415 --> 00:34:04,167
What are you three up to?
634
00:34:24,020 --> 00:34:26,105
I know I just called last night.
635
00:34:27,190 --> 00:34:29,192
No, she hasn't changed her mind.
636
00:34:29,776 --> 00:34:33,029
I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas Eve
before we go to church.
637
00:34:33,613 --> 00:34:35,281
Yes, church.
638
00:34:37,075 --> 00:34:38,618
With Helen and her mother.
639
00:34:40,495 --> 00:34:41,788
We will, Mom, soon.
640
00:34:42,288 --> 00:34:43,164
We promise.
641
00:34:45,291 --> 00:34:46,125
Thanks, Dad.
642
00:34:46,709 --> 00:34:47,668
I love you both.
643
00:34:53,633 --> 00:34:54,509
What a gift.
644
00:34:58,262 --> 00:35:02,057
Hey, I am, uh, not wearing my ring
to service.
645
00:35:02,058 --> 00:35:04,684
I don't want to upstage June.
646
00:35:04,685 --> 00:35:06,436
And on Christmas Eve of all nights.
647
00:35:06,437 --> 00:35:08,439
Well, I'm sure she'll appreciate that.
648
00:35:09,190 --> 00:35:10,190
Are we ready to go?
649
00:35:10,191 --> 00:35:11,776
Yeah, just one more thing.
650
00:35:12,276 --> 00:35:14,152
♪ Joy to the world ♪
651
00:35:14,153 --> 00:35:16,489
Yes, we're ready. I'm ready.
652
00:35:19,659 --> 00:35:22,536
This is my favorite church service
of the year.
653
00:35:23,538 --> 00:35:26,124
My favorite night of the year.
654
00:35:26,958 --> 00:35:30,294
A night that symbolizes new beginnings.
655
00:35:31,379 --> 00:35:34,714
A night built on faith and hope.
656
00:35:34,715 --> 00:35:37,926
A night rooted... in love.
657
00:35:37,927 --> 00:35:39,219
Hmm.
658
00:35:39,220 --> 00:35:44,183
And... this is usually
my favorite sermon of the year.
659
00:35:44,934 --> 00:35:45,977
But tonight...
660
00:35:50,189 --> 00:35:52,316
...it's just not gonna happen.
661
00:35:52,900 --> 00:35:53,734
June?
662
00:35:54,652 --> 00:35:55,610
Are you all right?
663
00:35:55,611 --> 00:35:58,446
Honey, I thought I could get through
the whole service,
664
00:35:58,447 --> 00:36:00,365
but the contractions are now three-- Ooh!
665
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,160
I'll go help.
666
00:36:04,412 --> 00:36:06,372
Mmm. Mmm.
667
00:36:07,206 --> 00:36:08,207
Mm-mm.
668
00:36:09,250 --> 00:36:13,420
In Luke, the angels tell us,
"Do not be afraid."
669
00:36:13,421 --> 00:36:15,882
"For behold,
670
00:36:16,924 --> 00:36:20,468
I bring you good news of great joy,
671
00:36:20,469 --> 00:36:22,596
which will be to all the people."
672
00:36:23,848 --> 00:36:26,600
If I skip the sermon,
I could probably finish the service.
673
00:36:26,601 --> 00:36:30,812
June, the Lord rejoices in your devotion,
but he has stronger nerves than I do.
674
00:36:30,813 --> 00:36:32,898
Can we please go?
675
00:36:32,899 --> 00:36:34,650
But it's Christmas Eve.
676
00:36:35,651 --> 00:36:38,195
June, you've taught us well,
and we know what to do.
677
00:36:38,196 --> 00:36:40,113
Please, please go with David and Erik.
678
00:36:40,114 --> 00:36:41,949
But, Helen-- Ooh! Ooh!
679
00:36:42,783 --> 00:36:44,284
That's not three minutes.
680
00:36:44,285 --> 00:36:46,661
I might've lost count
while praying to make it through.
681
00:36:46,662 --> 00:36:48,622
I'm not asking. I'm telling.
682
00:36:48,623 --> 00:36:50,624
- We are going. Now.
- But...
683
00:36:50,625 --> 00:36:51,542

Here we go! This year's family portrait.
716
00:39:59,397 --> 00:40:01,481
You have to be in it, sweetheart.
717
00:40:01,482 --> 00:40:03,274
I'm setting the timer, Mom.
718
00:40:08,989 --> 00:40:12,200
"Merry Christmas" in three, two, one.
719
00:40:12,201 --> 00:40:13,868
Merry Christmas!
720
00:40:16,414 --> 00:40:19,499
I couldn't be more thrilled
that Jimmy and his friends
721
00:40:19,500 --> 00:40:22,670
are looking for investment opportunities
here in Serenity.
722
00:40:23,504 --> 00:40:26,047
Anything to keep him closer to home.
723
00:40:26,048 --> 00:40:26,965
Mm-hmm.
724
00:40:26,966 --> 00:40:30,135
First thing, I'm talking to Alexander
about an idea I have.
725
00:40:30,136 --> 00:40:34,055
So are we. I mean, early stages.
What are you planning, Jimmy?
726
00:40:34,056 --> 00:40:34,973
A B&B.
727
00:40:34,974 --> 00:40:36,558
- I love that.
- Yeah?
728
00:40:36,559 --> 00:40:38,685
My sister has to stay in Castlewood
when she visits.
729
00:40:38,686 --> 00:40:40,478
It'd be so nice to have her stay closer.
730
00:40:40,479 --> 00:40:42,856
Oh, I'm sorry Kathy's not here
for Christmas.
731
00:40:42,857 --> 00:40:45,651
She stayed with Bonnie and Tripp.
They needed her more.
732
00:40:46,610 --> 00:40:49,487
But I wanna circle back to you, Ronnie,
and your e-bike idea.
733
00:40:49,488 --> 00:40:52,324
One of my kids is really into ecotourism
734
00:40:52,825 --> 00:40:55,160
and could be the perfect investor
735
00:40:55,161 --> 00:40:57,496
to help you and Jeremy
get this off the ground.
736
00:40:58,497 --> 00:41:01,750
You okay if I set up a meeting
for right after the first of the year?
737
00:41:02,751 --> 00:41:04,294
Very open to that. Yes, sir.
738
00:41:06,005 --> 00:41:07,590
I am hungry.
739
00:41:08,090 --> 00:41:09,340
Anyone else?
740
00:41:09,341 --> 00:41:11,468
Well, take me to your meatballs.
741
00:41:11,469 --> 00:41:12,427
I will.
742
00:41:15,139 --> 00:41:18,433
Who knew Santa was a millionaire playboy
from Charleston?
743
00:41:18,434 --> 00:41:20,560
This could be amazing, Dana Sue.
744
00:41:20,561 --> 00:41:24,022
We may actually find a way
for everyone's dreams to come true.
745
00:41:26,817 --> 00:41:29,569
Let's go find some mistletoe
and kiss under it.
746
00:41:29,570 --> 00:41:33,114
Who needs
some weird little plant?
747
00:41:33,115 --> 00:41:37,203
I got all the love and luck I need
right here in front of me.
748
00:41:38,078 --> 00:41:39,413

756
00:42:07,525 --> 00:42:10,109
Olivia, Roxanne, and I got a new tour.
757
00:42:10,110 --> 00:42:11,569
Opening for a great band...
758
00:42:11,570 --> 00:42:12,612
Congratulations.
759
00:42:12,613 --> 00:42:13,531
...in Europe.
760
00:42:15,491 --> 00:42:17,409
This is a dream come true.
761
00:42:18,827 --> 00:42:22,456
And you know what would make
this dream... even better?
762
00:42:24,416 --> 00:42:25,667
A record deal?
763
00:42:25,668 --> 00:42:27,336
Sharing it with you.
764
00:42:28,921 --> 00:42:32,049
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
765
00:42:32,967 --> 00:42:35,511
And I want us to experience it together.
766
00:42:36,303 --> 00:42:38,805
You'll be able to take
incredible pictures.
767
00:42:38,806 --> 00:42:39,931
We'll have a blast.
768
00:42:39,932 --> 00:42:40,849
When?
769
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:43,769
This summer.
770
00:42:44,770 --> 00:42:45,896
And into the fall.
771
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:49,775
I'm going to school.
772
00:42:51,610 --> 00:42:52,444
Defer?
773
00:42:55,573 --> 00:42:56,657
Annie, please.
774
00:42:57,533 --> 00:42:59,493
I can't. Not a program like this.
775
00:42:59,994 --> 00:43:01,370
You're an artist.
776
00:43:02,246 --> 00:43:03,746
This tour will feed your art.
777
00:43:03,747 --> 00:43:05,373
It's so perfect.
778
00:43:05,374 --> 00:43:07,710
I want us to do this together.
779
00:43:08,460 --> 00:43:09,669
Ty, no.
780
00:43:09,670 --> 00:43:12,631
I'm not going to defer my dream
to chase yours.
781
00:43:13,382 --> 00:43:14,758
And I can't pass up this tour.
782
00:43:17,011 --> 00:43:18,761
Which means
we aren't gonna see each other--
783
00:43:18,762 --> 00:43:22,515
You took 17 years to tell me you loved me.
784
00:43:22,516 --> 00:43:25,102
If we can't last one more,
then maybe that's our answer.
785
00:43:32,526 --> 00:43:34,402
Right there. Which one's your favorite?
786
00:43:34,403 --> 00:43:36,404
If we're not interrupting,
787
00:43:36,405 --> 00:43:39,073
Katie has something
she'd like to give to Bex.
788
00:43:39,074 --> 00:43:40,408
How sweet.
789
00:43:40,409 --> 00:43:44,747
Miss Kathy brought this
when she came for Daddy's funeral.
790
00:43:45,289 --> 00:43:47,958
It's a Christmas present
he bought for Bex.
791
00:43:53,547 --> 00:43:54,631
I was hoping!
792
00:43:54,632 --> 00:43:55,548
Yeah!
793
00:43:55,549 --> 00:43:59,928
Now all the boys have pocket knives,
and us girls have charm bracelets.
794
00:44:00,971 --> 00:44:02,180
Thank you, Katie.
795
00:44:02,181 --> 00:44:03,140
Thank you.
796
00:44:03,724 --> 00:44:04,600
It was Bill.
797
00:44:05,809 --> 00:44:08,645
- May I take Bex to get a cookie?
- Oh!
798
00:44:08,646 --> 00:44:10,356
That'd be sweet of you, Katie.
799
00:44:11,023 --> 00:44:12,106
Cookie time.
800
00:44:12,107 --> 00:44:13,359
{\an8}There you go, Bex.
801
00:44:15,903 --> 00:44:17,196
What a beautiful family.
802
00:44:18,197 --> 00:44:19,156
Thanks.
803
00:44:20,157 --> 00:44:21,325
Speaking of...
804
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:30,959
"Wishing Noreen and Bex
will move in with me. In love."
805
00:44:33,379 --> 00:44:36,006
- Yeah, yes.
- Yeah?
806
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:38,424
Oh, there you go.
807
00:44:39,802 --> 00:44:41,177
Go outside.
808
00:44:41,178 --> 00:44:42,096
Ty.
809
00:44:50,979 --> 00:44:55,109
I don't think of Christmas
and champagne together... but I approve.
810
00:44:58,070 --> 00:45:00,239
It's not really about Christmas.
811
00:45:00,948 --> 00:45:03,199
I'm gonna tell you something,
as my friend.
812
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,743
My close, trusted friend.
813
00:45:05,744 --> 00:45:07,079
Don't react.
814
00:45:07,830 --> 00:45:09,456
Mm-mm. Even that much.
815
00:45:10,749 --> 00:45:12,334
Helen and I are engaged.
816
00:45:14,628 --> 00:45:16,921
She wants to tell Maddie
and Dana Sue first.
817
00:45:16,922 --> 00:45:18,966
Now we're just prepping
for the celebration.
818
00:45:19,466 --> 00:45:24,637
I owe you a hug and a shout
something along the lines of "hot damn."
819
00:45:25,556 --> 00:45:27,682
All right.
Everyone is being far too polite.
820
00:45:27,683 --> 00:45:28,599
Eat. Drink.
821
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:29,767
Ho, ho, ho.
822
00:45:29,768 --> 00:45:32,646
Let's go in the café.
Let's go, go, go.
823
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,606
Hey, sweet girl. Come on. Come on.
824
00:45:35,607 --> 00:45:37,859
Hey. Hey. Uh-uh, uh-uh.
825
00:45:37,860 --> 00:45:39,819
- Not you two. You wait right there.
- Oh.
826
00:45:39,820 --> 00:45:40,738
Oh.
827
00:45:42,322 --> 00:45:43,364
What?
828
00:45:47,411 --> 00:45:48,912
Is everything okay with Annie?
829
00:45:50,164 --> 00:45:53,624
Having all those "my last Christmas
before I leave home" emotions.
830
00:45:53,625 --> 00:45:54,751
She'll be fine.
831
00:45:54,752 --> 00:45:57,044
She just needs to focus
on what a great time
832
00:45:57,045 --> 00:45:58,171
she's gonna have at school.
833
00:45:58,172 --> 00:45:59,088
Mmm.
834
00:45:59,089 --> 00:46:03,302
Before our friends and neighbors
start arriving, a toast.
835
00:46:05,804 --> 00:46:07,889
- Oh!
- Sweet baby Jesus in his manger.
836
00:46:08,932 --> 00:46:13,019
Is that the star, or is it a diamond?
837
00:46:13,020 --> 00:46:16,106
Tell us every last little thing.
838
00:46:17,816 --> 00:46:18,900
I said, "Yes."
839
00:46:18,901 --> 00:46:21,027
And?
840
00:46:21,028 --> 00:46:22,487
Is there a date?
841
00:46:22,488 --> 00:46:23,906
Well, no, not yet.
842
00:46:24,948 --> 00:46:26,408
This happened fast.
843
00:46:27,242 --> 00:46:28,910
We'll take the rest of it slowly.
844
00:46:28,911 --> 00:46:32,955
And we'll make sure that you can
come down from New York, of course.
845
00:46:32,956 --> 00:46:34,957
They accepted the counter?
846
00:46:34,958 --> 00:46:38,920
Well, I got the email last night.
I was waiting. How did you know?
847
00:46:38,921 --> 00:46:40,880
They would be stupid not to.
848
00:46:40,881 --> 00:46:42,049
You gonna accept?
849
00:46:42,883 --> 00:46:44,926
I think I'd be stupid not to.
850
00:46:44,927 --> 00:46:47,554
Lord have mercy.
851
00:46:48,055 --> 00:46:50,807
Things are happening real fast.
I'm feeling dizzy.
852
00:46:51,809 --> 00:46:54,311
And I've only had
two sips of my margarita.
853
00:46:54,812 --> 00:46:55,813
Oh, well.
854
00:46:56,605 --> 00:46:57,523
You know,
855
00:46:58,690 --> 00:47:00,108
I made this earlier.
856
00:47:03,821 --> 00:47:06,865
Our names are on the three links
857
00:47:07,783 --> 00:47:11,786
to remind us that
whatever the new year may bring,
858
00:47:11,787 --> 00:47:14,748
no matter how far from each other
we may be,
859
00:47:15,833 --> 00:47:18,334
this... the three of us,
860
00:47:18,335 --> 00:47:20,170
will always be strength,
861
00:47:21,296 --> 00:47:22,506
will always be love,
862
00:47:24,758 --> 00:47:26,093
will always be home.
863
00:47:26,635 --> 00:47:29,262
I love you both so much.
864
00:47:29,263 --> 00:47:31,180
I love you two too.
865
00:47:31,181 --> 00:47:32,223
Me three.
866
00:47:32,224 --> 00:47:34,767
- What a glorious Christmas.
- Mmm.
867
00:47:34,768 --> 00:47:36,686
What will the new year bring?
868
00:47:36,687 --> 00:47:38,271
Mmm.
869
00:47:38,272 --> 00:47:42,525
And I never thought I'd say this,
but forget margaritas.
870
00:47:42,526 --> 00:47:43,776
We need champagne.
871
00:47:43,777 --> 00:47:45,278
- Oh!
- Oh!
872
00:47:45,279 --> 00:47:46,738
That can be arranged.
873
00:47:47,322 --> 00:47:48,448
Now, Erik!
874
00:47:49,074 --> 00:47:49,907
- What?
- What?
875
00:47:51,577 --> 00:47:52,535
Erik!
876
00:47:52,536 --> 00:47:53,619
Congratulations.
877
00:47:55,622 --> 00:47:57,039
Here you are.
878
00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:58,207
Oh, look at them.
879
00:47:58,208 --> 00:47:59,543
Joy, yeah.
880
00:48:03,005 --> 00:48:04,881
Merry Christmas.
881
00:48:04,882 --> 00:48:06,967
Merry Christmas.
