WHERE WOULD YOU PUT THEM

26
00:01:11,105 --> 00:01:12,706
IN YOUR NEW YORK CITY

BETH, STOP.

30
00:01:20,481 --> 00:01:21,382
YOU'RE NOT JUST SOMEONE
WHO SLEEPS ON MY COUCH,

31
00:01:21,415 --> 00:01:22,250
YOU ARE MY ROOMMATE--

32
00:01:22,283 --> 00:01:23,817

00:01:23,851 --> 00:01:26,086
NOW, GRAB SOME GARLAND

00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,657
MAKE THIS TREE BEAUTIFUL

35
00:01:29,690 --> 00:01:31,125
I KNOW IT'S TWO WEEKS
UNTIL CHRISTMAS,

36
00:01:31,159 --> 00:01:33,060
BUT I AM READY FOR
SOME CHRISTMAS CHEER.

37
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:35,796
YEAH. THIS IS JUST
WHAT I NEED RIGHT NOW.

38
00:01:35,829 --> 00:01:37,631
OH! HOW WAS CLOSING
NIGHT OF YOUR PLAY?

39
00:01:37,665 --> 00:01:40,568
SHOULDN'T YOU BE AT SOME
CAST PARTY OR SOMETHING?

40
00:01:40,601 --> 00:01:43,171
NO, I COULD NOT GO
TO ANOTHER CLOSING NIGHT PARTY

41
00:01:43,204 --> 00:01:45,173
OF A TERRIBLE PLAY
THAT NOBODY SAW.

42
00:01:45,206 --> 00:01:47,475
MY AGENT
COULDN'T EVEN BE BOTHERED

43
00:01:47,508 --> 00:01:48,909
TO GO TO THIS ONE,
OKAY.

44
00:01:48,942 --> 00:01:50,444
I WOULD MUCH RATHER
BE HERE WITH YOU

45
00:01:50,478 --> 00:01:53,147
TRIMMING OUR TREE,
DRINKING EGGNOG.

46
00:01:53,181 --> 00:01:55,183
PLEASE TELL ME
THAT WE HAVE EGGNOG.

47
00:01:55,216 --> 00:01:56,917
WHAT AM I? AN AMATEUR?

48
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:58,686
WE'LL FINISH THE TREE,

49
00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:00,688
AND THEN I'LL TAKE YOU
FOR CLOSING NIGHT DRINKS

50
00:02:00,721 --> 00:02:02,089
AT FRED'S PIANO BAR.

51
00:02:02,122 --> 00:02:04,625
[SIGHS] NO. FRED'S
IS FOR THE BROADWAY CROWD.

52
00:02:04,658 --> 00:02:06,294
YOU ARE WELCOME THERE,
I FEEL LIKE AN OUTSIDER.

53
00:02:06,327 --> 00:02:07,595
EVERY TIME I GO,
I FEEL LIKE

54
00:02:07,628 --> 00:02:09,530
I'M RIDING THE COATTAILS
OF YOUR CAREER.

55
00:02:09,563 --> 00:02:11,131
OKAY, YOU ARE ONE
GREAT AUDITION AWAY

56
00:02:11,165 --> 00:02:14,435
FROM MY CAREER
BEING YOUR CAREER.

57
00:02:14,468 --> 00:02:16,103
I WAS YOU
THREE YEARS AGO,

58
00:02:16,136 --> 00:02:20,174
PLUCKED FROM OBSCURITY
BY MY DAD'S PRODUCER FRIEND--

59
00:02:20,208 --> 00:02:22,142
BUT THAT IS
BESIDES THE POINT,

60
00:02:22,176 --> 00:02:24,178
AND NOW I'M ON
MY SECOND BROADWAY PLAY.

61
00:02:24,212 --> 00:02:25,646
THAT'LL BE YOU.

62
00:02:25,679 --> 00:02:28,549
ESPECIALLY IF YOU GET
THAT DAVID MAMET PLAY.

63
00:02:28,582 --> 00:02:30,117
MY AUDITION DID
GO REALLY WELL.

64
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:31,485
YOU'RE GOING TO GET IT.

65
00:02:31,519 --> 00:02:33,854
OHH... I'M GOING TO GET IT.

66
00:02:33,887 --> 00:02:35,723
I HAVE TO GET IT.

67
00:02:35,756 --> 00:02:37,991
BECAUSE SLEEPING
ON THE COUCH,

68
00:02:38,025 --> 00:02:39,860
DOING BAD THEATER,
WAITING TABLES,

69
00:02:39,893 --> 00:02:41,362
THIS IS NOT HOW
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE.

70
00:02:41,395 --> 00:02:43,997
LIFE IS NEVER "HOW
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE."

71
00:02:44,031 --> 00:02:46,400
YOU'VE GOT TO LEARN HOW
TO ROLL WITH IT, BETHY,

72
00:02:46,434 --> 00:02:48,236
BECAUSE MAYBE
IT'LL BE EVEN BETTER.

73
00:02:49,403 --> 00:02:52,039
[**]

74
00:02:55,343 --> 00:02:57,245
GOOD MORNING, SUNSHINE.

75
00:02:57,278 --> 00:02:58,646
I'M JUST MAKING
SOME FRENCH TOAST

76
00:02:58,679 --> 00:03:00,147
BEFORE I GO TO THE HAMPTONS,

77
00:03:00,180 --> 00:03:02,516
AND...

78
00:03:05,586 --> 00:03:07,087
MERRY EARLY CHRISTMAS.

79
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,022
WHAT IS THIS?

80
00:03:09,056 --> 00:03:10,324
OPEN IT!

81
00:03:10,358 --> 00:03:11,859
THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR
IN FOREVER

82
00:03:11,892 --> 00:03:13,160
THAT YOU HAVEN'T HAD REHEARSAL
OVER THE HOLIDAYS,

83
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:14,828
AND THEY CUT YOUR HOURS
AT THE DINER,

84
00:03:14,862 --> 00:03:17,030
SO NOW YOU GET TO
GO HOME FOR CHRISTMAS...

85
00:03:17,064 --> 00:03:18,065
ON ME.

86
00:03:18,098 --> 00:03:19,900
NICOLE...

87
00:03:19,933 --> 00:03:21,369
THIS IS TOO MUCH.

88
00:03:22,736 --> 00:03:24,405
I GOT YOU EARRINGS.

89
00:03:24,438 --> 00:03:26,274
THEY'RE NOT EXPENSIVE ONES.

90
00:03:26,307 --> 00:03:28,742
WOW! THANK YOU FOR
RUINING THE SURPRISE.

91
00:03:28,776 --> 00:03:29,843
[LAUGHS]

92
00:03:29,877 --> 00:03:30,711
NOW, I ALREADY
CHECKED YOU IN,

93
00:03:30,744 --> 00:03:31,712
AND I ARRANGED

94
00:03:31,745 --> 00:03:32,713
TO HAVE A LIMO
PICK YOU UP

95
00:03:32,746 --> 00:03:33,714
WHEN YOU LAND.

96
00:03:33,747 --> 00:03:35,349
WHY ARE YOU
DOING THIS?

97
00:03:35,383 --> 00:03:37,351
BECAUSE
YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND.

98
00:03:37,385 --> 00:03:39,753
AND NOBODY SHOULD
BE ALONE AT CHRISTMAS.

99
00:03:39,787 --> 00:03:41,422
I MEAN,
IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT.

100
00:03:41,455 --> 00:03:43,357
YOU CAN'T SIT AROUND WAITING
TO HEAR ABOUT THE MAMET PLAY.

101
00:03:43,391 --> 00:03:45,893
YOU DESERVE
A HOMETOWN HOLIDAY...

102
00:03:45,926 --> 00:03:47,495
SO GO TO KERN.

103
00:03:49,497 --> 00:03:53,066
THEY ALL EXPECTED
SO MUCH FOR ME, YOU KNOW?

104
00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:55,436
"DESTINED FOR GREATNESS..."

105
00:03:55,469 --> 00:03:57,871
SO THE YEARBOOK SAID.

106
00:03:57,905 --> 00:04:00,408
STUPID, LYING
YEARBOOK.

107
00:04:01,509 --> 00:04:04,211
[**]

108
00:04:04,244 --> 00:04:07,715
YEAH. YEAH...
NEW YORK IS GREAT.

109
00:04:07,748 --> 00:04:10,117
I'M UP FOR A PLAY, ACTUALLY.

110
00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:12,920
MAMET.

111
00:04:12,953 --> 00:04:15,623
YEAH, YEAH. DAVID MAMET.

112
00:04:15,656 --> 00:04:18,759
IT IS!
IT'S... VERY EXCITING.

113
00:04:43,150 --> 00:04:45,553
[**]

114
00:04:51,124 --> 00:04:52,660
THANK YOU.

115
00:04:54,495 --> 00:04:55,529
[GASPING]

116
00:04:55,563 --> 00:04:56,764
MERRY CHRISTMAS, MAMA.

117
00:04:56,797 --> 00:04:58,632
OH, MY GOODNESS.

118
00:04:58,666 --> 00:05:01,001
OH... OH!

119
00:05:02,069 --> 00:05:05,038
OH, YOU'RE HOME!

120
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,041
IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE.

121
00:05:08,075 --> 00:05:09,543
OH, COME ON,
COME ON, COME ON.

122
00:05:09,577 --> 00:05:10,711
GET INSIDE.

123
00:05:13,180 --> 00:05:15,383
YOU OUTDID YOURSELF
ON THE LAWN.

124
00:05:15,416 --> 00:05:18,352
I CAN'T HELP MYSELF.

125
00:05:19,353 --> 00:05:23,357
WELL, IT'S VERY FESTIVE.

126
00:05:23,391 --> 00:05:24,858
THANK YOU.

127
00:05:29,029 --> 00:05:30,230
SO...

128
00:05:30,263 --> 00:05:32,733
YOU WANT TO TELL ME
WHAT'S GOING ON?

129
00:05:32,766 --> 00:05:34,668
WHY DOES SOMETHING
HAVE TO BE GOING ON?

130
00:05:34,702 --> 00:05:36,837
IT'S CHRISTMAS,
I WANTED TO SEE YOU.

131
00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:39,807
BETH, FIRST YOU TELL ME
YOU CAN'T AFFORD A TICKET

132
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:41,208
AND THEN YOU SHOW UP
OUT OF THE BLUE

133
00:05:41,241 --> 00:05:43,176
WITHOUT SO MUCH
AS A PHONE CALL.

134
00:05:43,210 --> 00:05:44,945
SURPRISE?

135
00:05:46,113 --> 00:05:48,716
IT WAS MY CHRISTMAS PRESENT
FROM NICOLE.

136
00:05:48,749 --> 00:05:50,050
-HMM!
-YEAH.

137
00:05:50,083 --> 00:05:51,184
MY SHOW CLOSED,

138
00:05:51,218 --> 00:05:52,319
AND I JUST
WANTED TO HAVE

139
00:05:52,352 --> 00:05:55,656
A REAL HOMETOWN
FAMILY CHRISTMAS.

140
00:05:55,689 --> 00:05:57,391
LIKE WE USED TO
HAVE, YOU KNOW?

141
00:05:57,425 --> 00:05:59,226
DO I EVER!

142
00:05:59,259 --> 00:06:02,162
ALL THOSE CHRISTMASES
I SPENT WITH YOU IN NEW YORK,

143
00:06:02,195 --> 00:06:04,565
THEY WERE FINE--
WE WERE TOGETHER.

144
00:06:04,598 --> 00:06:06,066
BUT THIS? [GASPS]

145
00:06:06,099 --> 00:06:07,701
OH, WE HAVE SO MUCH TO DO.

146
00:06:07,735 --> 00:06:09,670
WE HAVE TO GET
A TREE AND... [GASPS]

147
00:06:09,703 --> 00:06:13,173
SANTA. WE HAVE
TO GO SEE SANTA!

148
00:06:13,206 --> 00:06:15,042
YOU HAVE SOME SORT OF
CHRISTMAS WISH, RIGHT?

149
00:06:15,075 --> 00:06:17,210
I HAVE, LIKE, A THOUSAND.

150
00:06:17,244 --> 00:06:19,012
I HOPE SANTA HAS TIME.

151
00:06:19,046 --> 00:06:21,348
THAT WAS MY FAVORITE PART
OF CHRISTMAS.

152
00:06:21,381 --> 00:06:23,283
I USED TO GET EVERYTHING
I WANTED.

153
00:06:23,316 --> 00:06:25,753
THEN LET'S
GET MOVING!

154
00:06:26,820 --> 00:06:29,890
CAN I UNPACK FIRST?
FINISH MY COFFEE? RELAX?

155
00:06:29,923 --> 00:06:32,460
OF COURSE. BECAUSE,
IF YOU'RE UNPACKING,

156
00:06:32,493 --> 00:06:34,394
IT MEANS YOU'RE STAYING PUT
FOR A WHILE.

157
00:06:34,428 --> 00:06:37,665
I KEPT YOUR ROOM
EXACTLY AS YOU LEFT IT.

158
00:06:38,666 --> 00:06:40,233
[BETH]: YOU TOOK OUT
ALL MY PAGEANT TROPHIES?

159
00:06:40,267 --> 00:06:41,869
HOW MANY WAS I IN?

160
00:06:41,902 --> 00:06:44,037
SOME OF THOSE
ARE MINE!

161
00:06:44,071 --> 00:06:45,906
I WON
THE ENTIRE STATE.

162
00:06:45,939 --> 00:06:48,208
YOU ONLY WON THE COUNTY.

163
00:06:48,241 --> 00:06:49,943
MINE SHOULD BE
DISPLAYED, TOO.

164
00:06:49,977 --> 00:06:52,112
IT'S LIKE STEPPING
THROUGH A TIME MACHINE.

165
00:06:52,145 --> 00:06:55,215
FOR BOTH OF US,
EVIDENTLY.

166
00:06:55,248 --> 00:06:58,251
[SOFT CHUCKLING]

167
00:06:58,285 --> 00:06:59,487
I SAW HIM TODAY.

168
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,290
[MOM]:
BARRY McCORMICK?

169
00:07:03,323 --> 00:07:05,258
HE WALKED INTO
THE PHARMACY.

170
00:07:05,292 --> 00:07:06,460
I DUCKED.

171
00:07:06,494 --> 00:07:08,962
I THINK EVERYTHING
IS GOING TO BE FINE

172
00:07:08,996 --> 00:07:11,164
BETWEEN THE TWO
OF YOU, BETHY.

173
00:07:11,198 --> 00:07:12,833
IT'S BEEN YEARS!

174
00:07:12,866 --> 00:07:15,235
I CAN'T IMAGINE HE HAS
ANY HARD FEELINGS TOWARD YOU.

175
00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:17,905
HE SHOULDN'T.
HE STAYED.

176
00:07:17,938 --> 00:07:20,608
AND YOU CHOSE
TO LEAVE, SO...

177
00:07:20,641 --> 00:07:22,676
THIS IS WHAT
WAS MEANT TO BE.

178
00:07:22,710 --> 00:07:26,446
HAVE TO ACCEPT THE CHOICES

REALLY BAD WITH MELINDA,

COME DOWN HERE AND...

CLARITY HERE.

RIGHT HERE ON THIS BENCH.

YOU NEVER LEFT KERN?

THE PROBLEM IS,

00:34:47,953 --> 00:34:51,490
YOU HAVE TO BE
INVITED TO ACT,

919
00:34:51,523 --> 00:34:53,592

JUST AREN'T COMING.

OH! HELLO THERE.

1235
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,762
AND TO WHAT DO I OWE
THIS PLEASURE?

1236
00:47:44,795 --> 00:47:45,997
AND THAT SMILE?

1237
00:47:46,031 --> 00:47:48,333
I CAME TO GIVE THIS
BACK TO YOU.

1238
00:47:48,366 --> 00:47:50,268
OH, NO,
YOU KEEP IT.

1239
00:47:50,301 --> 00:47:51,669
NO. I COULDN'T POSSIBLY.

1240
00:47:51,702 --> 00:47:52,870
IT'S TOO SPECIAL.

1241
00:47:52,904 --> 00:47:54,772
IT SHOWED ME A LOT,
AND I'M GOOD.

1242
00:47:54,805 --> 00:47:56,874
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT,
"SPECIAL?"

1243
00:47:56,908 --> 00:47:58,776
I FOUND IT
IN A THRIFT STORE.

1244
00:47:58,809 --> 00:48:00,545
I LIKED
WHAT IT REPRESENTED,

1245
00:48:00,578 --> 00:48:02,047
AND SO I GAVE IT TO YOU.

1246
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:03,514
SO, THIS DIDN'T...

1247
00:48:03,548 --> 00:48:05,650
YOU HAD ALL
THE ANSWERS, BETH.

1248
00:48:06,884 --> 00:48:08,019
AND IT'S CUTE, NO?

1249
00:48:08,053 --> 00:48:09,887
IT'S CUTE.

1250
00:48:09,921 --> 00:48:11,556
I THINK IT'LL LOOK
GOOD ON YOU.

1251
00:48:11,589 --> 00:48:13,691
THANK YOU.

TAKE A STEP, SNAP, STEP.

1254
00:48:22,233 --> 00:48:25,303
VERY GOOD! BUT WHERE
ARE THE REST OF MY ELVES?

1255
00:48:25,336 --> 00:48:26,304
UH, GRETA?

1256
00:48:26,337 --> 00:48:28,606
GRETA, COME ON.
LET'S GO.

1257
00:48:28,639 --> 00:48:30,708
ALL RIGHT, AND SO WE DANCE
AND WE DANCE AND WE DANCE,

1258
00:48:30,741 --> 00:48:33,911
AND THEN
MRS. CLAUS SINGS THE LINE.

1259
00:48:36,314 --> 00:48:38,916
MRS. CLAUS SINGS THE LINE...

1260
00:48:38,950 --> 00:48:41,519
DID YOU
FORGET YOUR LINE?

1261
00:48:42,620 --> 00:48:44,522
[GENTLY] OKAY. SORRY.

1262
00:48:46,091 --> 00:48:48,559
HEY, DEAN, WANT TO HELP ME
WITH THIS LADDER?

1263
00:48:48,593 --> 00:48:51,062
YEAH.

1264
00:48:51,096 --> 00:48:53,498
I ACTUALLY WANTED
TO TALK TO YOU ANYWAY.

1265
00:48:53,531 --> 00:48:57,635
[BETH]: STEP,
SNAP, STEP... GOOD.

1266
00:48:57,668 --> 00:48:59,604
[DEAN]: AND IT JUST
HAPPENED LAST NIGHT.

1267
00:48:59,637 --> 00:49:01,606
AT RINKORAMA,
OF ALL PLACES,

1268
00:49:01,639 --> 00:49:03,341
BUT I WANTED YOU
TO HEAR IT FROM ME.

1269
00:49:03,374 --> 00:49:04,475
YOU KNOW, BECAUSE
OF ALL THE HISTORY.

1270
00:49:04,509 --> 00:49:05,977
THAT'S ANCIENT HISTORY.

1271
00:49:06,011 --> 00:49:07,345
I KNOW,

1272
00:49:07,378 --> 00:49:08,779
BUT IF YOU'VE GOT
A PROBLEM WITH IT,

1273
00:49:08,813 --> 00:49:09,981
IT ENDS HERE.

1274
00:49:10,015 --> 00:49:11,349
NO, REALLY, DEAN,
I'M FINE WITH IT.

1275
00:49:11,382 --> 00:49:13,418
I'M HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS.

1276
00:49:13,451 --> 00:49:15,853
[SIGHS] I JUST...

1277
00:49:16,887 --> 00:49:18,156
WHAT'S UP?

1278
00:49:19,157 --> 00:49:20,191
HAS SHE MENTIONED
ANYTHING ABOUT

1279
00:49:20,225 --> 00:49:21,926
STAYING IN KERN
AFTER CHRISTMAS?

1280
00:49:21,959 --> 00:49:23,995
WELL, WE HAVEN'T REALLY
GOTTEN THAT FAR, YOU KNOW.

1281
00:49:24,029 --> 00:49:25,696
IT WAS ONLY ONE KISS.

1282
00:49:25,730 --> 00:49:27,698
RIGHT. BUT JUST
BE CAUTIOUS.

1283
00:49:27,732 --> 00:49:29,800
BETH HAS BIG DREAMS

1284
00:49:29,834 --> 00:49:31,369
AND A LIFE IN NEW YORK,

1285
00:49:31,402 --> 00:49:33,404
AND YOU LIVE HERE.

1286
00:49:36,241 --> 00:49:38,543
BUT HEY, I MEAN, YOU'RE
A PRETTY CHARMING DUDE,

1287
00:49:38,576 --> 00:49:40,378
NOT TERRIBLE-LOOKING,

A WORSE WRESTLER
THAN ME, BUT...

1289

WHO KNOWS?

1290
00:49:44,515 --> 00:49:47,152
MAYBE, UH... MAYBE SHE'LL
STICK AROUND THIS TIME.

1291
00:49:47,185 --> 00:49:49,120

OKAY, SO NOW THAT
WE HAVE OUR COSTUMES ON,

1295
00:49:58,996 --> 00:50:00,565
LET'S DO THIS FOR REAL.

1296
00:50:00,598 --> 00:50:02,867
YOU CAN DO THIS,
FRANCES.

1297
00:50:02,900 --> 00:50:05,870
YOU KNOW,
I WAS NERVOUS

1298
00:50:05,903 --> 00:50:07,338
WHEN I STARTED
PERFORMING.

1299
00:50:07,372 --> 00:50:08,506
YOU WERE?

1300
00:50:08,539 --> 00:50:10,308
[LAUGHS] TERRIFIED.

1301
00:50:10,341 --> 00:50:13,010
BUT I DID IT
AND IT WAS SO MUCH FUN.

1302
00:50:13,044 --> 00:50:15,846
AND I STILL GET NERVOUS
WHEN I GO ONSTAGE,

1303
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:18,383
BUT IT'S THE GOOD
KIND OF NERVOUS.

1304
00:50:18,416 --> 00:50:20,918
IT'S AN EXCITED NERVOUS.

1305
00:50:20,951 --> 00:50:23,588
OKAY, I'LL TRY TO BE
THE GOOD KIND OF NERVOUS.

1306

[CHUCKLES] YEAH!
THAT'S MY MRS. CLAUS.

1307
00:50:25,956 --> 00:50:29,260

TOGETHER? OKAY.

HERE COMES THE MAN--

THE MAN WITH THE PLAN!

1311

HERE COMES...

1312
00:50:38,803 --> 00:50:40,171
SANTA!

1313
00:50:40,205 --> 00:50:41,406
THAT'S YOUR CUE!

1314
00:50:43,941 --> 00:50:46,111
[BETH, CHUCKLING] WELL,
WE'RE GONNA NEED A SEAMSTRESS.

1315
00:50:46,144 --> 00:50:47,945
ALL RIGHT, GUYS.
I THINK WE'RE DONE FOR TODAY.

1316
00:50:47,978 --> 00:50:49,180

[KIDS ALL TALKING AT ONCE]

1318
00:50:52,250 --> 00:50:54,419
BYE.

1319
00:51:02,293 --> 00:51:03,461
I THOUGHT I'D DROP BY

1320
00:51:03,494 --> 00:51:04,829
JUST TO SEE HOW THINGS
WERE GOING.

1321
00:51:05,896 --> 00:51:07,765
YOU'RE WONDERFUL
WITH THEM.

1322
00:51:07,798 --> 00:51:09,300
YOU THINK SO?

1323
00:51:09,334 --> 00:51:10,735
NOT TO SOUND LIKE
A BROKEN RECORD,

1324
00:51:10,768 --> 00:51:12,103
BUT I STILL HAVEN'T

1325
00:51:12,137 --> 00:51:14,071
FILLED THAT PART-TIME
DRAMA TEACHER JOB.

1326
00:51:16,907 --> 00:51:18,743
JUST LET THAT SIMMER
FOR A LITTLE.

1327
00:51:18,776 --> 00:51:20,778
OKAY. THANK YOU.

1328
00:51:25,350 --> 00:51:27,318
YOU KNOW, THAT'S NOT
A TERRIBLE IDEA.

1329
00:51:27,352 --> 00:51:30,321
YEAH, WELL,
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY.

1330
00:51:30,355 --> 00:51:32,557
THOSE WHO CAN'T DO...
TEACH.

1331
00:51:32,590 --> 00:51:35,460
AND THOSE WHO CAN DO,
TEACH INCREDIBLY WELL.

1332
00:51:35,493 --> 00:51:37,094
[LAUGHS]

1333
00:51:37,128 --> 00:51:39,597

YOU'LL REALLY LIKE HIM.

1340
00:51:54,279 --> 00:51:56,581
I FEEL LIKE MYSELF AGAIN.

00:51:56,614 --> 00:51:59,317

I TALKED YOU INTO GOING HOME?

I'M GETTING INVOLVED.

WELL, I AM BACK
AT THE APARTMENT.

1348

MY DAD BROUGHT
HIS NEW GIRLFRIEND

00:52:14,031 --> 00:52:15,200
TO THE HAMPTONS,

1350
00:52:15,233 --> 00:52:17,502

1351
00:52:17,535 --> 00:52:20,971

00:52:28,379 --> 00:52:30,114
YOU COULD COME HERE
FOR CHRISTMAS.

1357
00:52:30,147 --> 00:52:31,882
SOUNDS LIKE
YOU'RE GOING TO BE PRETTY BUSY

1358
00:52:31,916 --> 00:52:33,651

1359

I CAN'T INTRUDE ON THAT.

1360
00:52:35,886 --> 00:52:36,954
BUT I'LL SEE YOU

1361
00:52:36,987 --> 00:52:38,389

[SHIRLEY]: I'M SURE
YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB!

1369
00:52:54,405 --> 00:52:56,173
THOSE KIDS ARE
DOING A GREAT JOB.

1370
00:52:56,207 --> 00:52:58,376
I'M JUST TEACHING THEM
THE BOX-STEP.

1371
00:52:58,409 --> 00:53:00,645

TO PULL IT OFF IN TIME.

1378
00:53:19,897 --> 00:53:21,866
DO YOU THINK
I'D MAKE A GOOD MOTHER?

1379
00:53:21,899 --> 00:53:24,669
WHERE DID THAT
COME FROM?

1380
00:53:24,702 --> 00:53:28,072
YOU WERE
AN EXCEPTIONAL MOTHER.

1381
00:53:29,307 --> 00:53:31,276
THANKS, HONEY.

1382
00:53:31,309 --> 00:53:33,043
IT WAS JUST YOU AND ME

FOR ALL THOSE YEARS
AFTER DADDY DIED...

1384

IT WASN'T ALWAYS EASY,

BUT I DID THE BEST
THAT I COULD.

1386

YOU WERE SO SELFLESS.

1387
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:45,423
YOU LIFTED ME UP,
YOU GAVE ME EVERYTHING.

1388
00:53:45,456 --> 00:53:47,191
THAT'S WHAT A MOTHER DOES.

1389

SHE NURTURES HER BABY

1390
00:53:48,326 --> 00:53:51,362
SO THAT SHE CAN FEEL FREE
TO FLY.

1391
00:53:51,396 --> 00:53:53,764
I JUST DON'T KNOW
IF I WOULD HAVE IT IN ME.

1392
00:53:53,798 --> 00:53:55,366
OH, OF COURSE
YOU DO.

1393

[MEN LAUGHING]

1751
01:12:25,909 --> 01:12:28,612
OH! OH... BETH.

1752
01:12:30,179 --> 01:12:32,015
THANK YOU FOR CUTTING
YOUR TRIP SHORT

1753
01:12:32,048 --> 01:12:33,650
AND COMING TO JOIN US HERE.

1754
01:12:33,683 --> 01:12:37,153
MM. YOU KNOW, WHEN JANE
BROKE HER ARM-- OR HER LEG...

1755
01:12:37,186 --> 01:12:39,188
WHAT DID JANE BREAK?

1756
01:12:39,222 --> 01:12:40,524
AH, WHAT
DOES IT MATTER?

1757
01:12:40,557 --> 01:12:42,025
ANYWAY, WE KNEW THAT
WE HAD TO GET YOU HERE

1758
01:12:42,058 --> 01:12:43,226
A.S.A.P.

1759
01:12:43,259 --> 01:12:46,329
NOW, YOU WERE
MY FIRST CHOICE,

1760
01:12:46,362 --> 01:12:47,597
BUT THE PRODUCER
WRITES THE CHECKS,

1761
01:12:47,631 --> 01:12:49,599
AND HE FOUGHT ME
FOR JANE.

1762
01:12:49,633 --> 01:12:51,334
BUT YOU'RE HERE NOW
AND WE'RE THRILLED.

1763
01:12:51,367 --> 01:12:52,536
THANK YOU.

1764
01:12:52,569 --> 01:12:54,170
I AM VERY EXCITED
TO BE HERE.

1765
01:12:54,203 --> 01:12:55,338
IT IS AN HONOR

1766
01:12:55,371 --> 01:12:57,441
TO BE UNDERSTUDYING
ALEXIS AVERY.

1767
01:12:57,474 --> 01:12:58,842
YOU WON'T BE SAYING THAT
IN A FEW MONTHS,

1768
01:12:58,875 --> 01:12:59,843
I CAN ASSURE YOU.

1769
01:12:59,876 --> 01:13:01,177
NINE BROADWAY SHOWS,

1770
01:13:01,210 --> 01:13:03,212
AND I'VE NEVER MISSED
ONE PERFORMANCE.

1771
01:13:03,246 --> 01:13:04,781
NOT ONCE.

1772
01:13:04,814 --> 01:13:07,083
SORRY, DOLL, BUT AT LEAST
YOU'RE GETTING PAID.

1773
01:13:07,116 --> 01:13:09,252
AND IT'S A BROADWAY CREDIT,
RIGHT? YEAH.

1774
01:13:09,285 --> 01:13:11,755
SO SHOULD I JUST
STAND OVER HERE, THEN--

1775
01:13:11,788 --> 01:13:12,789
OH, NO. NO, NO,
NO, NO, NO.

1776
01:13:12,822 --> 01:13:15,224
NO. YOU WILL SIT
RIGHT HERE,

1777
01:13:15,258 --> 01:13:16,593
IN THIS CHAIR,

1778
01:13:16,626 --> 01:13:18,795
AND YOU WILL WATCH
AND YOU WILL STUDY

1779
01:13:18,828 --> 01:13:20,363
EVERY MOVE
THAT ALEXIS MAKES

1780
01:13:20,396 --> 01:13:22,432
IN THE EVENT
THAT YOU EVER GO ON FOR HER.

1781
01:13:22,466 --> 01:13:24,100
THAT'S YOUR JOB.

1782
01:13:24,133 --> 01:13:25,201

1784
01:13:31,274 --> 01:13:33,777
ALL RIGHT, MY LOVELIES.
LET'S BEGIN WITH ACT THREE.

1785
01:13:33,810 --> 01:13:35,044
ALL RIGHT, JEROME,

1786
01:13:35,078 --> 01:13:36,145
CAN YOU COME IN
FROM UPSTAGE LEFT,

1787
01:13:36,179 --> 01:13:37,914
MAKE YOUR WAY DOWN
TO ALEXIS,

1788
01:13:37,947 --> 01:13:40,917
DAVID WILL FIND YOU
ON THE COUCH...

1789
01:13:40,950 --> 01:13:43,453
[CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY]

1790
01:13:43,487 --> 01:13:45,421
[**]

1791
01:13:45,455 --> 01:13:46,823
[BETH]: IT WAS LIKE

1792
01:13:46,856 --> 01:13:48,458
I WAS INVISIBLE.

1793
01:13:48,492 --> 01:13:50,226
I MEAN, THERE'S NO GUARANTEE
THAT I'LL EVER PERFORM.

1794
01:13:50,259 --> 01:13:51,828
IT FELT LIKE...

1795
01:13:51,861 --> 01:13:53,162
A STEPPING STONE?

1796
01:13:53,196 --> 01:13:54,430
A WASTE OF TIME.

1797
01:13:54,464 --> 01:13:55,665
HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT, BETH?

1798
01:13:55,699 --> 01:13:56,933
THIS IS WHAT
YOU'VE ALWAYS WANTED.

1799
01:13:56,966 --> 01:13:59,469
IT'S A GREAT
OPPORTUNITY.

1800
01:13:59,503 --> 01:14:01,505
MAYBE IT'S NOT ANYMORE.

1801
01:14:01,538 --> 01:14:03,072
WHAT?

1802
01:14:03,106 --> 01:14:05,475
I FEEL LIKE I'M HAVING
AN OUT-OF-BODY EXPERIENCE.

1803
01:14:05,509 --> 01:14:07,010
WHAT DID THAT TOWN
DO TO YOU?

1804
01:14:08,177 --> 01:14:10,079
IT FELT LIKE...

1805
01:14:10,113 --> 01:14:12,682
I WAS A PART OF SOMETHING
THAT MATTERED...

1806
01:14:12,716 --> 01:14:14,518
LIKE I BELONG THERE.

1807
01:14:16,620 --> 01:14:18,688
I BELONG THERE.

1808
01:14:18,722 --> 01:14:20,957
SO YOU'RE JUST GOING
TO GIVE UP?

1809
01:14:20,990 --> 01:14:23,693
YOU'RE COMMITTING
CAREER SUICIDE.

1810
01:14:25,461 --> 01:14:28,498
I THINK I WANTED MY CAREER
TO DEFINE ME

1811
01:14:28,532 --> 01:14:30,834
SO I COULD FEEL
WORTHY OF THIS PRAISE

1812
01:14:30,867 --> 01:14:32,936
THAT I'VE BEEN GIVEN
MY WHOLE LIFE.

1813
01:14:32,969 --> 01:14:34,538
BUT IT DOESN'T DEFINE ME.

1814
01:14:34,571 --> 01:14:37,340
YOU KNOW, WHAT I DID
WITH THOSE KIDS,

1815
01:14:37,373 --> 01:14:38,608
THAT DEFINES ME.

1816
01:14:38,642 --> 01:14:39,943
MY FAMILY DOES.
COMMUNITY DOES.

1817
01:14:39,976 --> 01:14:41,310
I DON'T FEEL
LIKE I'M GIVING ANYTHING UP.

1818
01:14:41,344 --> 01:14:43,713
I FEEL LIKE
I'M MOVING TOWARD SOMETHING.

1819
01:14:46,883 --> 01:14:49,418
I NEED TO GO HOME
FOR CHRISTMAS EVE.

1820
01:14:51,354 --> 01:14:53,957
WELL, LET'S GET YOU
A FLIGHT HOME, THEN.

1821
01:14:53,990 --> 01:14:56,760
[**]

1822
01:15:08,504 --> 01:15:10,674
BETH! YOU'RE BACK.

1823
01:15:10,707 --> 01:15:11,875
I'M BACK.

1824
01:15:11,908 --> 01:15:13,677
IT'S A LONG STORY,
BUT I AM HERE,

1825
01:15:13,710 --> 01:15:14,978
AND I AM AVAILABLE,

1826
01:15:15,011 --> 01:15:16,179
AND I WANT TO HELP
WITH THE FESTIVAL,

1827
01:15:16,212 --> 01:15:17,213
OR HOWEVER YOU NEED ME.

1828
01:15:17,246 --> 01:15:18,915
YOU HAVEN'T HEARD?

1829
01:15:18,948 --> 01:15:20,316
HEARD WHAT?

1830
01:15:20,349 --> 01:15:21,851
COME IN.

1831
01:15:23,286 --> 01:15:24,588
I'VE BEEN ON
A LOT OF PLANES

1832
01:15:24,621 --> 01:15:25,855
IN THE LAST 24 HOURS--

1833
01:15:25,889 --> 01:15:28,057
THE FESTIVAL
IS CANCELED.

1834
01:15:28,091 --> 01:15:29,325
WAIT. WHAT?

1835
01:15:29,358 --> 01:15:30,359
I HAVEN'T BEEN
GONE THAT LONG.

1836
01:15:30,393 --> 01:15:31,861
WHAT HAPPENED?

1837
01:15:31,895 --> 01:15:34,864
SOMEONE SET OFF THE SPRINKLERS
IN THE TOWN HALL.

1838
01:15:34,898 --> 01:15:36,365
EVERYTHING WAS RUINED.

1839
01:15:36,399 --> 01:15:37,533
EVERYTHING,

1840
01:15:37,567 --> 01:15:39,335
AND WE CAN'T EVEN
USE THE HALL

1841
01:15:39,368 --> 01:15:41,070
BECAUSE WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT
TO DRY OUT,

1842
01:15:41,104 --> 01:15:42,772
WHICH COULD TAKE A WEEK,
MORE?

1843
01:15:42,806 --> 01:15:43,773
I DON'T KNOW.

1844
01:15:43,807 --> 01:15:45,108
IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.

1845
01:15:45,141 --> 01:15:46,776

YOU WERE NOT HERE FOR IT.

1846

1847
01:15:48,544 --> 01:15:50,614
YEAH, THEY WERE
PRETTY DEVASTATED.

1848
01:15:50,647 --> 01:15:52,515
DEAN TOOK THEM
TO THE RINKORAMA TODAY, THOUGH,

1849
01:15:52,548 --> 01:15:53,683
TO CHEER THEM UP.

1850
01:15:53,717 --> 01:15:54,918
OF COURSE HE DID.

1851
01:15:54,951 --> 01:15:56,586
EVERYONE MUST BE SO UPSET.

1852
01:15:56,620 --> 01:15:58,387
THIS IS THE BIGGEST EVENT
OF THE YEAR IN KERN.

1853
01:15:58,421 --> 01:16:01,424
NO DECORATIONS,
NO BUDGET, NO LOCATION--

1854
01:16:01,457 --> 01:16:03,426
NO FESTIVAL TOMORROW.

1855
01:16:03,459 --> 01:16:06,896
OH. THERE HAS TO BE
SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO.

1856
01:16:07,964 --> 01:16:09,365
WAIT A MINUTE.

1857
01:16:09,398 --> 01:16:10,767
IT'S THE INSIDE OF THE HALL
THAT'S RUINED?

1858
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:12,401
NOT THE OUTSIDE?

1859
01:16:12,435 --> 01:16:14,537
THE OUTSIDE IS FINE,

1860
01:16:14,570 --> 01:16:15,772
BUT IT'S SUPPOSED
TO SNOW,

1861
01:16:15,805 --> 01:16:17,741
AND WE DON'T HAVE
ANY DECORATIONS,

1862
01:16:17,774 --> 01:16:19,142

01:16:34,658 --> 01:16:35,925
