and it sparked an idea.
1215

1216

1217
00:59:01,407 --> 00:59:05,106
- My ancestors
founded this town.
1218

It's what we want to celebrate.
1219

- Wait, what do you mean,
"celebrate"?
1220
00:59:10,677 --> 00:59:12,461
- Well, every year, you use
the Winter Wonderland theme
1221
00:59:12,505 --> 00:59:13,724
because it gives each of you
an opportunity
1222
00:59:13,811 --> 00:59:15,464
to spotlight your businesses.
1223
00:59:15,508 --> 00:59:17,379
- Yeah, but what if this year,
we could spotlight
1224
00:59:17,466 --> 00:59:19,643
all the businesses
in the same theme?
1225
00:59:19,730 --> 00:59:22,428
- No, no, it's my turn.
1226

- Wait, hear us out.
1227
00:59:24,473 --> 00:59:27,738
Let Castle Creek's history
tell a story.
1228
00:59:27,781 --> 00:59:30,479
Each of your businesses
represents a chapter.
1229
00:59:30,523 --> 00:59:32,525
Then we walk the judges
through the chapters,
1230
00:59:32,612 --> 00:59:34,919
celebrating Main Street's past.
1231
00:59:37,312 --> 00:59:39,271

working for us.
1234
00:59:43,014 --> 00:59:45,146
- So we're just gonna pretend
that this keeps
1235
00:59:45,233 --> 00:59:46,931
with our tradition, Billy?
1236
00:59:47,018 --> 00:59:49,150
- Maybe this year,
we buck tradition.
1237
00:59:49,237 --> 00:59:51,065
- Now, we know that you were
really looking forward
1238
00:59:51,152 --> 00:59:55,243
to your shop being
the focus of the competition,
1239
00:59:55,330 --> 00:59:59,465
and we think that
there's a way we can do that.
1240
00:59:59,508 --> 01:00:02,642
Your shop will be the first
1241
01:00:02,686 --> 01:00:05,297
and the last chapters.
1242

where it began.

- As a descendant
from the founding family
1244
01:00:12,739 --> 01:00:15,481
of Castle Creek,
we think it's only right,
1245
01:00:15,568 --> 01:00:18,876
not to mention we want you
to escort the judges.
1246
01:00:18,919 --> 01:00:23,881
- So the cameras would begin
and end at my shop?
1247
01:00:23,924 --> 01:00:26,971
And I would be with the judges
for the whole entire time?
1248
01:00:28,494 --> 01:00:31,453

1249
