00:09:01,458 --> 00:09:03,166
Oh, sure. Yeah.
181
00:09:03,250 --> 00:09:05,291
- We'll be right back, honey.
- Okay, Mom.
182
00:09:08,291 --> 00:09:09,333
[sighs]
183
00:09:23,708 --> 00:09:24,750
Hmm.
184
00:09:46,291 --> 00:09:48,541
- Whoa! Oh! Hold on. Let me…
- [gasps]
185
00:09:48,625 --> 00:09:49,833
Whoa! Whoa!
186
00:09:49,916 --> 00:09:51,708
- Hold on. I got it.
- [Dad] Everything okay?
187
00:09:51,791 --> 00:09:53,375
Uh, I think you need a plumber.
188
00:09:53,458 --> 00:09:55,583
Oh, you know, it-- it does that.
189
00:09:55,666 --> 00:09:57,708
The one in the kitchen,
that's the real problem.
190
00:09:57,791 --> 00:09:59,750
- There's one in the kitchen?
- And the men's room.
191
00:10:00,250 --> 00:10:01,125
Okay.
192
00:10:04,458 --> 00:10:05,583
What are you waiting for?
193
00:10:06,208 --> 00:10:09,625
Uh, we've been
prioritizing our funds a bit.
194
00:10:09,708 --> 00:10:13,333
[chuckles] Look, the thing is,
Denise keeps raising the rent,
195
00:10:13,416 --> 00:10:15,791
so there's never
any extra money to fix the place up.
196
00:10:16,416 --> 00:10:19,083
So the acts aren't
bringing them in like they used to?
197
00:10:19,166 --> 00:10:21,625
- What acts?
- [chuckles] Oh.
198
00:10:21,708 --> 00:10:24,333
What he means to say is
times have changed.
199
00:10:24,416 --> 00:10:27,583
Most bands prefer the…
the bigger clubs these days.
200
00:10:27,666 --> 00:10:29,458
But there is a very nice young man
201
00:10:29,541 --> 00:10:32,875
who stops by to help us
with the repairs from time to time.
202
00:10:33,500 --> 00:10:35,583
[chuckles] Don't worry, huh?
203
00:10:35,666 --> 00:10:38,458
The Rhythm Room has always been
a place for people to come together,
204
00:10:38,541 --> 00:10:40,416
in good times and bad.
205
00:10:41,458 --> 00:10:45,166
I'd say that's way more important
than a leaky faucet, wouldn't you?
206
00:10:45,250 --> 00:10:46,083
I guess.
207
00:10:46,166 --> 00:10:47,250
[Dad laughs] Okay.
208
00:10:48,458 --> 00:10:49,666
Hey, everyone.
209
00:10:49,750 --> 00:10:50,583
[grunts]
210
00:10:50,666 --> 00:10:51,916
[gasps]
211
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,916
So that pipe's
still giving you a problem, huh?
212
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:56,833
[Dad] Mm.
213
00:10:58,041 --> 00:10:59,125
Let me guess.
214
00:10:59,208 --> 00:11:02,375
This is the nice young man
who helps with the repairs?
215
00:11:02,875 --> 00:11:04,708
Also known as Luke.
216
00:11:04,791 --> 00:11:06,958
Well, this is my youngest daughter Ashley.
217
00:11:07,041 --> 00:11:08,875
- Ashley.
- She's visiting from New York.
218
00:11:08,958 --> 00:11:11,583
Oh, New York.
219
00:11:11,666 --> 00:11:12,500
Yeah.
220
00:11:13,083 --> 00:11:14,000
That explains it.
221
00:11:14,083 --> 00:11:16,833
Okay, well, I would love
to stay and chat. I would.
222
00:11:16,916 --> 00:11:19,291
But I got a valve to find.
223
00:11:20,291 --> 00:11:22,041
Nice to meet you, city girl.
224
00:11:23,250 --> 00:11:24,791
- [Mom exclaims]
- [Ashley sighs]
225
00:11:24,875 --> 00:11:26,125
He's cute.
226
00:11:26,625 --> 00:11:27,625
He's annoying.
227
00:11:28,125 --> 00:11:29,583
He's available.
228
00:11:30,208 --> 00:11:31,208
Okay.
229
00:11:31,291 --> 00:11:33,916
Since you two children
clearly have things under control,
230
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,166
I think I'm gonna head
to the café and pay Marie a visit.
231
00:11:37,250 --> 00:11:39,208
Did I mention that he's handy?
232
00:11:39,291 --> 00:11:40,750
I'm not listening.
233
00:11:40,833 --> 00:11:42,958
♪ Fa-la-la, la-la-la-- ♪ Oh!
234
00:11:43,041 --> 00:11:44,750
- Oh, be careful.
- [Mom] Oh!
235
00:11:44,833 --> 00:11:46,333
The leak. Oh.
236
00:11:55,375 --> 00:11:56,208
[Ashley] Hmm.
237
00:11:59,833 --> 00:12:02,000
Is that my baby sister I see?
238
00:12:02,625 --> 00:12:03,458
Oh!
239
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,416
Aww.
240
00:12:05,500 --> 00:12:06,333
[Marie laughs]
241
00:12:06,416 --> 00:12:09,208
It feels so good to hug you
and squeeze you in person.
242
00:12:09,291 --> 00:12:12,208
I cannot believe
you bought the Little Spoon.
243
00:12:12,291 --> 00:12:15,166
Well, Beth was retiring,
and I just could not let this place
244
00:12:15,250 --> 00:12:18,166
turn into one of those coffee shops
that sell $8 lattes.
245
00:12:18,250 --> 00:12:19,291
[Ashley] Mm.
246
00:12:19,375 --> 00:12:22,291
And now I can, you know,
try out my cookie recipes,
247
00:12:22,375 --> 00:12:24,041
chat with the customers.
248
00:12:24,125 --> 00:12:25,791
Two of your favorite things, babe.
249
00:12:25,875 --> 00:12:28,083
- Rodger!
- Hey. [chuckles]
250
00:12:28,166 --> 00:12:29,250
You're working here?
251
00:12:29,333 --> 00:12:32,833
Yeah. Helping out when I can.
Lending a little celebrity cachet.
252
00:12:32,916 --> 00:12:36,500
Oh, remind me. What's the statute
of limitations on high school athletics?
253
00:12:36,583 --> 00:12:40,333
[laughs] Okay. Okay, I admit
the old tight end isn't so tight anymore.
254
00:12:40,416 --> 00:12:41,250
[chuckles]
255
00:12:41,333 --> 00:12:42,791
- Good to see you.
- You too.
256
00:12:43,916 --> 00:12:45,375
Mom told me about the Belles.
257
00:12:45,458 --> 00:12:46,291
Oh.
258
00:12:47,291 --> 00:12:48,833
- I am so sorry.
- Well…
259
00:12:48,916 --> 00:12:49,875
[Marie sighs]
260
00:12:51,250 --> 00:12:54,333
Well, my whole life just got demolished
261
00:12:54,416 --> 00:12:56,833
by a younger dancer with perkier boobs.
262
00:12:56,916 --> 00:12:59,875
Well, I, for one, am so glad you're back.
263
00:12:59,958 --> 00:13:02,166
And you're welcome to stay with us
as long as you need.
264
00:13:02,250 --> 00:13:05,000
No, no, no. Don't get too excited.
It's only temporary.
265
00:13:05,083 --> 00:13:06,750
What can I get you?
266
00:13:07,333 --> 00:13:10,333
The lady will have
a double cheeseburger with extra bacon.
267
00:13:10,416 --> 00:13:12,458
- Okay.
- Actually, the lady will have a salad.
268
00:13:12,541 --> 00:13:13,541
Okay.
269
00:13:13,625 --> 00:13:15,625
And an order
of my chocolate candy cane cookies.
270
00:13:18,166 --> 00:13:22,458
So, what's this about the Rhythm Room
having trouble booking acts?
271
00:13:22,541 --> 00:13:25,333
Look, a band can get more attention
with a 30-second TikTok
272
00:13:25,416 --> 00:13:27,000
than they can playing the Rhythm Room.
273
00:13:27,083 --> 00:13:27,916
Ugh.
274
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,875
It's gonna be fine.
Mom and Dad are gonna figure it out.
275
00:13:31,708 --> 00:13:32,541
Probably.
276
00:13:33,250 --> 00:13:34,125
[Ashley] Ah!
277
00:13:34,208 --> 00:13:36,833
- Okay, be honest.
- Okay.
278
00:13:36,916 --> 00:13:38,291
[door chimes]
279
00:13:38,375 --> 00:13:39,833
- [Luke] City girl!
- [gasps]
280
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:41,833
[muffled] Oh, my God.
281
00:13:43,458 --> 00:13:44,833
Uh, hey, Rog.
282
00:13:44,916 --> 00:13:47,041
- I'm, uh, here to get my order, and, uh…
- Yeah.
283
00:13:47,625 --> 00:13:49,041
I'll have what she's having.
284
00:13:49,125 --> 00:13:50,291
[chuckles]
285
00:13:51,333 --> 00:13:54,416
Uh, Luke, you live
pretty close to South Peak, yeah?
286
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:56,125
- No!
- Yeah.
287
00:13:56,208 --> 00:13:59,125
Would you mind
just giving my sister a ride home?
288
00:13:59,208 --> 00:14:00,875
- Rodger and I need to close.
- [Ashley] No.
289
00:14:01,666 --> 00:14:04,166
I can just use a, um, rideshare app.
290
00:14:04,250 --> 00:14:06,791
You do know this is Sycamore Creek, right?
291
00:14:07,666 --> 00:14:09,250
Okay, but I haven't even eaten yet.
292
00:14:12,250 --> 00:14:14,291
Okay. Here we go.
293
00:14:15,208 --> 00:14:17,375
Wow. Such good cookies. Okay.
294
00:14:17,458 --> 00:14:18,625
Thanks, buddy.
295
00:14:18,708 --> 00:14:20,500
Watch out for the guard dog.
296
00:14:20,583 --> 00:14:21,500
How could I forget?
297
00:14:21,583 --> 00:14:24,208
Come on, city girl. Your chariot awaits.
298
00:14:24,291 --> 00:14:25,875
You know, you got a little, uh…
299
00:14:28,750 --> 00:14:29,750
[door chimes]
300
00:14:29,833 --> 00:14:32,666
[country music playing on radio]
301
00:14:33,916 --> 00:14:36,083
[sighs] Thanks. So
302
00:14:37,333 --> 00:14:40,250
how long have you been, um, carpentering?
303
00:14:42,291 --> 00:14:44,416
Don't think I've ever
heard that term before.
304
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:45,541
No.
305
00:14:45,625 --> 00:14:46,500
I like it.
306
00:14:47,250 --> 00:14:49,791
My father was a general contractor,
307
00:14:49,875 --> 00:14:52,166
so I practically grew up in a toolbox.
308
00:14:52,250 --> 00:14:53,500
- Hmm.
- What about you?
309
00:14:53,583 --> 00:14:56,666
Oh, no, I'm more of
a call-the-building-super kind of gal.
310
00:14:57,833 --> 00:14:59,208
I mean, for work.
311
00:14:59,291 --> 00:15:01,958
Oh. Um, I'm a dancer.
312
00:15:03,791 --> 00:15:04,791
Oh.
313
00:15:05,666 --> 00:15:06,500
Okay.
314
00:15:06,583 --> 00:15:08,833
No, not that kind of dancer.
315
00:15:08,916 --> 00:15:10,875
Uh, Broadway. [chuckles]
316
00:15:10,958 --> 00:15:12,041
Oh.
317
00:15:12,125 --> 00:15:14,125
So you're a diva.
318
00:15:14,208 --> 00:15:16,125
What? No, I am a Jingle Belle.
319
00:15:16,208 --> 00:15:18,083
So you're an impressive diva.
320
00:15:18,166 --> 00:15:19,750
[scoffs, chuckles]
321
00:15:19,833 --> 00:15:24,416
To be honest,
I am currently on an indefinite hiatus.
322
00:15:25,541 --> 00:15:26,708
I'm sorry to hear that.
323
00:15:26,791 --> 00:15:27,708
Yeah.
324
00:15:28,208 --> 00:15:31,916
But enough about me.
What about you, Mr. Toolbox?
325
00:15:32,500 --> 00:15:35,375
I wanna know.
Why have you been helping my parents?
326
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,041
That's easy.
327
00:15:37,708 --> 00:15:40,166
When I first moved here,
I didn't know very many people.
328
00:15:40,250 --> 00:15:42,375
But I loved going to the Rhythm Room.
329
00:15:42,458 --> 00:15:43,666
So much fun.
330
00:15:44,166 --> 00:15:46,375
And your folks,
they always went out of their way
331
00:15:46,458 --> 00:15:47,833
to make me feel at home.
332
00:15:48,750 --> 00:15:50,541
Yeah. Sounds like them.
333
00:15:59,125 --> 00:16:00,583
All right, just-- oh.
334
00:16:00,666 --> 00:16:01,625
Hey.
335
00:16:02,208 --> 00:16:05,125
- All right, don't forget this.
- Yep. Thank you. I got it.
336
00:16:05,208 --> 00:16:06,250
[Luke] Okay.
337
00:16:06,833 --> 00:16:07,666
And this.
338
00:16:08,250 --> 00:16:09,083
[laughs]
339
00:16:10,541 --> 00:16:11,875
And your salad.
340
00:16:12,375 --> 00:16:13,375
All right. [exhales]
341
00:16:14,375 --> 00:16:16,333
Um, thanks for the ride.
342
00:16:16,916 --> 00:16:17,875
No problem.
343
00:16:18,541 --> 00:16:20,375
[sighs] Guess I'll see you around.
344
00:16:20,958 --> 00:16:22,083
For sure.
345
00:16:23,541 --> 00:16:24,375
Good night.
346
00:16:24,958 --> 00:16:25,791
Night.
347
00:16:29,291 --> 00:16:30,833
[whispers] What was that?
348
00:16:30,916 --> 00:16:32,083
[engine turns over]
349
00:16:32,750 --> 00:16:33,666
[chuckles]
350
00:16:39,583 --> 00:16:41,375
- [dog barks]
- Gizmo!
351
00:16:41,458 --> 00:16:43,125
My scary little guard dog.
352
00:16:43,208 --> 00:16:44,583
Oh, yes.
353
00:16:44,666 --> 00:16:46,750
- You are so fierce, aren't you?
- [Gizmo whimpers]
354
00:16:46,833 --> 00:16:49,458
Okay. Let's go find Auntie Ashley's room.
355
00:16:57,333 --> 00:16:58,500
You kept all these?
356
00:16:58,583 --> 00:17:00,208
Of course I did.
357
00:17:00,291 --> 00:17:01,541
You're my sister.
358
00:17:02,041 --> 00:17:03,208
I'm so proud of you.
359
00:17:04,958 --> 00:17:07,875
Sometimes I think
Mom and Dad would have preferred if I just
360
00:17:07,958 --> 00:17:09,416
performed at the Rhythm Room.
361
00:17:09,500 --> 00:17:10,333
[Gizmo whimpers]
362
00:17:10,416 --> 00:17:15,041
I think they would have preferred if
you came to visit every once in a while.
363
00:17:15,125 --> 00:17:16,666
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [chuckles]
364
00:17:16,750 --> 00:17:19,083
But you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
365
00:17:19,166 --> 00:17:20,541
- [Gizmo whimpers]
- Yeah.
366
00:17:20,625 --> 00:17:24,083
Speaking of, um… how's Luke?
367
00:17:24,958 --> 00:17:26,375
News flash.
368
00:17:26,458 --> 00:17:30,166
Women no longer need a male companion
to solidify their happiness.
369
00:17:30,250 --> 00:17:32,416
- We can also vote now.
- Oh, congrats.
370
00:17:32,500 --> 00:17:33,333
Mm-hmm.
371
00:17:33,416 --> 00:17:36,833
I'm so sorry that I just
want my baby sister to be happy.
372
00:17:36,916 --> 00:17:38,625
I was happy.
373
00:17:39,208 --> 00:17:41,166
You know, the show
was more than just a job.
374
00:17:41,250 --> 00:17:45,416
It was, you know,
strength training, flexibility training,
375
00:17:45,500 --> 00:17:48,416
blocking, choreography,
not to mention performing every night,
376
00:17:48,500 --> 00:17:49,375
twice on weekends.
377
00:17:49,458 --> 00:17:52,125
I… I didn't even have time
to think about dating.
378
00:17:52,208 --> 00:17:53,458
Well, now you do.
379
00:17:54,625 --> 00:17:57,541
Yes, yes. That was my first thought
when they canned me.
380
00:17:57,625 --> 00:18:01,083
[chuckles] Well, what about in the show?
381
00:18:01,583 --> 00:18:02,833
Are there any cute guys?
382
00:18:02,916 --> 00:18:05,250
No. No showbiz guys.
383
00:18:06,708 --> 00:18:09,083
I want, like, a professional, you know?
384
00:18:09,166 --> 00:18:12,041
Like, remember the surgeon
you dated before Rodger?
385
00:18:12,125 --> 00:18:13,791
[laughing]
386
00:18:13,875 --> 00:18:15,500
What's so funny?
387
00:18:15,583 --> 00:18:16,583
Okay.
388
00:18:19,875 --> 00:18:23,625
I'm gonna tell you something, but you
gotta promise to never tell anybody.
389
00:18:23,708 --> 00:18:25,000
Okay, what?
390
00:18:27,791 --> 00:18:31,500
Max wasn't exactly a real doctor.
391
00:18:32,208 --> 00:18:35,208
He just played one
at bachelorette parties.
392
00:18:37,958 --> 00:18:39,583
- [Ashley gasps]
- [snickers]
393
00:18:39,666 --> 00:18:42,791
Marie Rose Davis, did you date a stripper?
394
00:18:42,875 --> 00:18:44,250
Shh! Shh.
395
00:18:44,333 --> 00:18:45,541
You dated a stripper?
396
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:49,041
Well, not-- you know,
he was a doctor stripper.
397
00:18:49,125 --> 00:18:51,541
- It's different.
- Sure. Yeah, I mean…
398
00:18:51,625 --> 00:18:54,041
I know, it was
very, very off-brand for me.
399
00:18:54,125 --> 00:18:55,208
I am impressed.
400
00:18:55,291 --> 00:18:56,750
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
401
00:18:56,833 --> 00:18:59,291
Okay, but you gotta promise
this stays in the vault.
402
00:18:59,375 --> 00:19:00,791
Oh, yes. Vaulted for life.
403
00:19:00,875 --> 00:19:01,791
Okay.
404
00:19:01,875 --> 00:19:03,500
- What's vaulted for life?
- [Marie] Uh…
405
00:19:04,375 --> 00:19:05,958
Oh, um, I don't…
406
00:19:06,041 --> 00:19:08,250
I think… [splutters]
407
00:19:08,333 --> 00:19:10,000
Ash, what was-- what are we talking about?
408
00:19:10,083 --> 00:19:12,791
You know, I-- I-- I do know,
409
00:19:12,875 --> 00:19:16,208
and I can't tell you because it's--
it's medical, and that's confidential.
410
00:19:16,291 --> 00:19:17,541
Mm. Yeah. [chuckles]
411
00:19:17,625 --> 00:19:18,458
Um…
412
00:19:19,291 --> 00:19:20,125
Right.
413
00:19:20,208 --> 00:19:21,166
[chuckles]
414
00:19:21,958 --> 00:19:22,833
Okay.
415
00:19:29,916 --> 00:19:30,958
Mom?
416
00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:32,500
Dad?
417
00:19:35,625 --> 00:19:36,625
What's…
418
00:19:41,250 --> 00:19:42,875
Ugh. Mom?
419
00:19:42,958 --> 00:19:43,833
- Dad?
- [Luke] Ow!
420
00:19:43,916 --> 00:19:45,500
- Oh, my God. Luke?
- [metal clangs]
421
00:19:45,583 --> 00:19:48,000
What are you doing under there?
You scared me.
422
00:19:48,083 --> 00:19:49,125
I scared you?
423
00:19:49,208 --> 00:19:50,875
Oh, my God. You're naked.
424
00:19:50,958 --> 00:19:51,875
What?
425
00:19:52,791 --> 00:19:55,416
- Okay, first of all, I'm not naked.
- Oh, right.
426
00:19:55,500 --> 00:19:56,708
My shirt was drying.
427
00:19:57,208 --> 00:20:00,916
And second of all, I'm only down there
because someone broke the faucet.
428
00:20:01,625 --> 00:20:04,208
Allegedly. And it was broken already.
429
00:20:05,250 --> 00:20:06,250
Fair.
430
00:20:06,875 --> 00:20:08,125
You mind giving me a hand?
431
00:20:09,041 --> 00:20:10,291
Only if I can get it back.
432
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,041
Witty.
433
00:20:14,458 --> 00:20:18,041
All I need you to do is hold the faucet
steady while I tighten the connector.
434
00:20:18,125 --> 00:20:18,958
Got it?
435
00:20:19,041 --> 00:20:20,333
Easy-peasy.
436
00:20:20,916 --> 00:20:22,041
All right. Here, right here.
437
00:20:22,125 --> 00:20:24,041
Oh, okay. Yeah, got it.
438
00:20:24,791 --> 00:20:26,041
[grunts] You got it?
439
00:20:26,125 --> 00:20:27,875
Yeah. [sighs]
440
00:20:28,541 --> 00:20:30,000
[wrench clicking]
441
00:20:30,083 --> 00:20:32,916
[Luke grunts] Okay. All right.
442
00:20:33,708 --> 00:20:35,250
Here, oh, I--
443
00:20:35,333 --> 00:20:36,875
- Sorry. I was just gonna…
- Turn it.
444
00:20:39,791 --> 00:20:40,791
And voilà.
445
00:20:42,416 --> 00:20:44,458
Teamwork makes the dream work. Hmm.
446
00:20:45,208 --> 00:20:47,500
Wow, that's very impressive.
447
00:20:47,583 --> 00:20:48,750
[chuckles]
448
00:20:48,833 --> 00:20:50,000
Yoo-hoo!
449
00:20:50,083 --> 00:20:52,041
- Is anybody here?
- I, uh, um…
450
00:20:52,125 --> 00:20:53,666
Yep. I'll get that. [exhales]
451
00:20:54,666 --> 00:20:55,833
[Luke] I'll be in the back.
452
00:20:56,708 --> 00:20:59,458
- Denise. Hi.
- Hi. Are your parents around?
453
00:20:59,541 --> 00:21:01,291
Ah, no. Not yet.
454
00:21:01,375 --> 00:21:03,250
Is there something I can help you with?
455
00:21:03,333 --> 00:21:05,416
Well, I'd prefer
to speak with them privately.
456
00:21:05,500 --> 00:21:08,083
Oh, I'm sure anything
you have to say, I can handle it.
457
00:21:08,666 --> 00:21:11,041
I realize what a stressful time
it's been for your parents,
458
00:21:11,125 --> 00:21:14,625
and that's why I'm thrilled to let them
know that I have some good news.
459
00:21:14,708 --> 00:21:15,875
Oh, yeah? What is it?
460
00:21:16,458 --> 00:21:17,375
Squeeze Me.
461
00:21:17,875 --> 00:21:19,625
- No, thank you.
- [Denise chuckles]
462
00:21:19,708 --> 00:21:22,250
No, Squeeze Me, the juice bar.
463
00:21:22,833 --> 00:21:24,208
Oh, okay. What about it?
464
00:21:24,291 --> 00:21:26,250
I spoke to their
regional manager last night,
465
00:21:26,333 --> 00:21:29,666
and he's willing to take over
your parents' lease as of January 1st.
466
00:21:30,250 --> 00:21:33,083
Best of all,
he'll pay their entire backlog.
467
00:21:33,166 --> 00:21:34,583
[Ashley gasps]
468
00:21:34,666 --> 00:21:36,583
So your good news is that my parents
469
00:21:36,666 --> 00:21:40,083
are going to lose
the Rhythm Room to a-- a juice bar?
470
00:21:40,166 --> 00:21:43,500
- And be made whole in the process.
- Okay, how much could they owe?
471
00:21:44,958 --> 00:21:46,416
Six months' rent.
472
00:21:46,500 --> 00:21:49,500
- Plus maintenance, repairs.
- Uh…
473
00:21:49,583 --> 00:21:50,625
Interest.
474
00:21:51,375 --> 00:21:52,750
$30,000.
475
00:21:54,958 --> 00:21:56,125
[clears throat] Denise.
476
00:21:56,791 --> 00:21:59,166
The Rhythm Room,
it's-- it's a town staple.
477
00:21:59,250 --> 00:22:01,083
You cannot shut it down.
478
00:22:01,583 --> 00:22:06,000
Ashley, the Rhythm Room was a town staple.
479
00:22:06,625 --> 00:22:08,083
But now it's…
480
00:22:09,208 --> 00:22:11,125
It's just another… [sighs]
481
00:22:12,083 --> 00:22:15,041
…hole-in-the-wall
with too many holes in the walls
482
00:22:15,125 --> 00:22:16,875
and no customers.
483
00:22:18,125 --> 00:22:21,958
Well, then we will bring in some new acts.
484
00:22:22,041 --> 00:22:24,458
Oh, sweetie, you don't need new acts.
485
00:22:24,541 --> 00:22:27,916
You need a doctor,
because this place is on life support.
486
00:22:29,041 --> 00:22:32,166
[Marie] Max wasn't exactly a real doctor.
487
00:22:32,250 --> 00:22:33,208
Wait.
488
00:22:33,958 --> 00:22:35,000
That's it.
489
00:22:35,750 --> 00:22:36,625
A doctor?
490
00:22:37,208 --> 00:22:39,625
Yes. Uh, no, no. Um…
491
00:22:40,208 --> 00:22:43,083
A… A male dance revue.
492
00:22:43,625 --> 00:22:47,291
And it's, uh…
It's gonna be a Christmas spectacular
493
00:22:47,375 --> 00:22:49,500
full of hot up-and-coming…
494
00:22:49,583 --> 00:22:51,291
- [door opens]
- …men.
495
00:22:51,916 --> 00:22:52,750
[sighs]
496
00:22:52,833 --> 00:22:55,333
Oh. And here's one now. Luke.
497
00:22:57,250 --> 00:22:58,250
Here's who?
498
00:22:58,333 --> 00:23:00,958
It-- one of the men, yeah. [chuckles]
499
00:23:03,166 --> 00:23:04,958
Ashley was just telling me about
500
00:23:05,041 --> 00:23:08,291
the Christmas spectacular
that you're starring in?
501
00:23:08,375 --> 00:23:09,583
The what now?
502
00:23:09,666 --> 00:23:10,791
Remember?
503
00:23:10,875 --> 00:23:12,125
Oh. Oh!
504
00:23:12,208 --> 00:23:15,791
- [Ashley chuckles]
- That Christmas spectacular.
505
00:23:16,416 --> 00:23:18,791
Yeah. No, I'm really
looking forward to it.
506
00:23:18,875 --> 00:23:20,625
Yeah. Lots of singing.
507
00:23:20,708 --> 00:23:23,541
- Dancing.
- Dancing. Lots of dancing.
508
00:23:23,625 --> 00:23:27,791
- Yeah.
- Yeah, it's just gonna be so… spectacular.
509
00:23:27,875 --> 00:23:30,333
And actually, we would
love for you to be here
510
00:23:30,416 --> 00:23:32,125
for our grand premiere.
511
00:23:32,958 --> 00:23:35,291
- We would?
- That is if you're not too busy.
512
00:23:35,375 --> 00:23:36,916
Are you kidding me?
513
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,208
This I have to see.
514
00:23:38,291 --> 00:23:39,625
[all chuckle]
515
00:23:39,708 --> 00:23:40,708
Great.
516
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,250
This, uh, male dance revue of yours,
517
00:23:45,875 --> 00:23:47,125
does it have a name?
518
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,500
- Uh-huh. Yeah.
- Hmm?
519
00:23:49,583 --> 00:23:50,916
It's called the…
520
00:23:51,750 --> 00:23:54,041
Merry Gentlemen.
521
00:23:54,125 --> 00:23:55,541
- Cute.
- [Ashley] Yeah.
522
00:23:55,625 --> 00:23:56,833
[Denise] See you soon.
523
00:23:58,208 --> 00:24:00,000
- Oof!
- What was that about?
524
00:24:00,083 --> 00:24:03,250
Well, she was coming in here
and talking about evicting us,
525
00:24:03,333 --> 00:24:04,291
so I just panicked.
526
00:24:04,875 --> 00:24:06,083
Panicked or perjured?
527
00:24:06,166 --> 00:24:07,583
- Oh, very funny.
- [Luke] Mm.
528
00:24:07,666 --> 00:24:10,250
Let's think this through,
'cause I think this is a good idea.
529
00:24:10,333 --> 00:24:13,291
Think what through?
We're not actually gonna do it.
530
00:24:13,375 --> 00:24:15,208
No, no, no. Luke. Luke, please.
531
00:24:15,291 --> 00:24:17,708

00:32:17,791 --> 00:32:19,708
- Oh, God.
- No, no, no. Hey. Hey.
712
00:32:20,458 --> 00:32:21,583
You are gonna be great.
713
00:32:22,958 --> 00:32:24,125
I promise.
714
00:32:26,708 --> 00:32:28,625
All right, let's get ready.
715
00:32:28,708 --> 00:32:30,625
- [whoops]
- [exhales]
716
00:32:30,708 --> 00:32:32,708
[inhales, exhales]
717
00:32:39,625 --> 00:32:43,166
[upbeat Christmas music playing]
718
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,833
[audience cheering]
719
00:32:49,375 --> 00:32:51,083
[woman] Yeah, baby. Whoo!
720
00:32:51,166 --> 00:32:54,416
Whoo!
721
00:32:54,500 --> 00:32:56,250
[audience screams]
722
00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:04,625
[shouting]
723
00:33:08,250 --> 00:33:09,500
[cheering continues]
724
00:33:15,583 --> 00:33:17,583
[audience screams]
725
00:33:17,666 --> 00:33:19,541
Whoo! [shouts]
726
00:33:20,791 --> 00:33:22,083
Whoo!
727
00:33:23,166 --> 00:33:25,583
[audience cheering]
728
00:33:30,583 --> 00:33:32,458
[woman] Whoo-hoo!
729
00:33:32,541 --> 00:33:34,083
Shut your eyes.
730
00:33:34,166 --> 00:33:36,791
[audience screaming]
731
00:33:38,875 --> 00:33:40,291
[music continues]
732
00:33:46,125 --> 00:33:47,500
One, two, three.
733
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,958
[audience shouting]
734
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,458
[cheering]
735
00:34:03,041 --> 00:34:04,791
- Whoo!
- Whoo!
736
00:34:04,875 --> 00:34:07,041
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
737
00:34:10,541 --> 00:34:11,541
[man] Yeah!
738
00:34:11,625 --> 00:34:14,041
- [Rodger] I almost lost my belt.
- [Troy] Yeah, I pulled it off.
739
00:34:14,125 --> 00:34:15,500
- Great job, fellas.
- [Troy] Thanks.
740
00:34:15,583 --> 00:34:17,500
- Yeah, I just stopped--
- Ashley?
741
00:34:17,583 --> 00:34:18,916
Hmm? Oh, hi.
742
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,666
I must admit, when you
first mentioned your little "spectacular,"
743
00:34:22,750 --> 00:34:24,583
I thought it sounded a little…
744
00:34:24,666 --> 00:34:26,416
Mm… ridiculous?
745
00:34:26,958 --> 00:34:27,833
Optimistic.
746
00:34:27,916 --> 00:34:30,625
But I was wrong. It was great.
747
00:34:30,708 --> 00:34:32,416
Did you see
all those ladies that showed up?
748
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:34,833
- Oh, they were loving it.
- [Denise] And you!
749
00:34:34,916 --> 00:34:37,750
- I…
- Congratulations on a great show.
750
00:34:37,833 --> 00:34:38,833
Oh, thank you.
751
00:34:39,458 --> 00:34:40,375
My number.
752
00:34:42,500 --> 00:34:43,875
- Oh, hey.
- Here you go.
753
00:34:45,250 --> 00:34:48,583
Everyone was clapping
and cheering and dancing.
754
00:34:48,666 --> 00:34:50,458
- It was like the old days.
- [Ashley chuckles]
755
00:34:50,541 --> 00:34:51,500
Sort of.
756
00:34:51,583 --> 00:34:52,958
- [all chuckle]
- [Ashley] Yeah.
757
00:34:53,041 --> 00:34:56,375
We haven't made that much
in one night in years. [chuckles]
758
00:34:57,583 --> 00:34:59,666
I'm just glad everyone had a nice time.
759
00:35:00,791 --> 00:35:04,333
Uh, excuse me, everyone.
I'd-- I'd like to make a toast.
760
00:35:04,416 --> 00:35:06,416
To… Ashley.
761
00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:08,333
[Ashley gulps, exhales]
762
00:35:08,416 --> 00:35:12,416
For taking a chance on a guy
who… didn't even want one.
763
00:35:12,500 --> 00:35:13,750
- [Marie chuckles]
- [Danny] Ha.
764
00:35:13,833 --> 00:35:15,333
Look, but seriously, uh,
765
00:35:16,333 --> 00:35:19,708
the fact that you were able
to put this whole thing together
766
00:35:19,791 --> 00:35:23,208
in such a short amount of time
is absolutely incredible.
767
00:35:23,291 --> 00:35:24,541
Thank you.
768
00:35:24,625 --> 00:35:28,291
Not to mention teach
a couple of goofy guys this choreography.
769
00:35:28,375 --> 00:35:29,958
- Good on you.
- [Dad laughs]
770
00:35:30,041 --> 00:35:31,958
You know, I had a really good partner.
771
00:35:32,041 --> 00:35:33,125
[sniffs]
772
00:35:34,958 --> 00:35:35,916
To Ashley.
773
00:35:36,791 --> 00:35:37,708
Oh, stop.
774
00:35:37,791 --> 00:35:39,250
- To Ashley.
- Yep.
775
00:35:39,333 --> 00:35:40,708
I can't take all the credit.
776
00:35:40,791 --> 00:35:43,791
I think I gotta give a shout-out
to the Merry Gentlemen.
777
00:35:43,875 --> 00:35:46,833
- Yes.
- With tidings of comfort and joy!
778
00:35:46,916 --> 00:35:50,208
Well, speaking of comfort and joy,
let's get you home.
779
00:35:50,291 --> 00:35:51,125
- Ooh.
- [Ashley] Oh.
780
00:35:51,208 --> 00:35:52,791
- [Rodger] All right.
- We're right here.
781
00:35:53,583 --> 00:35:56,541
Well… you pulled it off.
782
00:35:56,625 --> 00:35:57,958
- Congrats.
- Thank you.
783
00:35:58,833 --> 00:36:00,041
[Danny] Looking good, Slick.
784
00:36:00,916 --> 00:36:02,750
You did look good, Slick.
785
00:36:03,458 --> 00:36:04,291
Funny.
786
00:36:04,375 --> 00:36:05,375
Oh, uh,
787
00:36:06,541 --> 00:36:07,583
I almost forgot.
788
00:36:08,541 --> 00:36:11,833
I got you a little something.
Just a little something to remember me by.
789
00:36:11,916 --> 00:36:13,083
- Mm.
- Luke.
790
00:36:13,166 --> 00:36:14,250
It's nothing, just…
791
00:36:15,416 --> 00:36:16,500
[Ashley] That's so sweet.
792
00:36:17,166 --> 00:36:18,041
Okay.
793
00:36:20,583 --> 00:36:23,333
I will forever be grateful to that wreath
794
00:36:23,416 --> 00:36:26,208
for pulling you into my life.
795
00:36:28,375 --> 00:36:29,375
This is…
796
00:36:30,916 --> 00:36:31,791
[sighs]
797
00:36:31,875 --> 00:36:33,333
- May I?
- Yeah. Uh…
798
00:36:37,708 --> 00:36:38,666
Yeah.
799
00:36:40,208 --> 00:36:41,291
[Luke] And…
800
00:36:42,833 --> 00:36:43,958
there we go.
801
00:36:45,958 --> 00:36:48,041
[inhales, sighs]
802
00:36:49,750 --> 00:36:50,833
Stunning.
803
00:36:51,541 --> 00:36:52,583
Thank you.
804
00:36:53,708 --> 00:36:55,958
You know, it's a nice night.
805
00:36:56,583 --> 00:36:57,833
May I walk you home?
806
00:36:59,375 --> 00:37:01,500
Only if we can get something to eat.
807
00:37:01,583 --> 00:37:02,416
I'm starving.
808
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:03,416
[chuckles]
809
00:37:07,750 --> 00:37:09,208
- You know…
- Hmm?
810
00:37:09,291 --> 00:37:10,541
I have to admit,
811
00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:15,916
that pizza was a close second
to a New York slice.
812
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:16,833
[chuckles]
813
00:37:17,458 --> 00:37:19,791
You know, they import
the water from the East Coast
814
00:37:19,875 --> 00:37:22,125
just to give it that authentic flavor.
815
00:37:22,208 --> 00:37:23,083
Is that true?
816
00:37:23,166 --> 00:37:24,791
I'm just kidding. I have no idea.
817
00:37:24,875 --> 00:37:25,958
[both laugh]
818
00:37:27,708 --> 00:37:29,750
So, tell me something about yourself.
819
00:37:29,833 --> 00:37:31,458
- Me?
- Yeah.
820
00:37:32,041 --> 00:37:33,875
You know, married, boyfriend?
821
00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:36,333
Uh…
822
00:37:36,416 --> 00:37:37,666
I don't mean to pry.
823
00:37:37,750 --> 00:37:39,291
I'm just making friendly conversation.
824
00:37:39,375 --> 00:37:41,041
No. None of the above.
825
00:37:42,166 --> 00:37:43,166
How about you?
826
00:37:44,250 --> 00:37:46,666
Uh, I was married.
827
00:37:46,750 --> 00:37:47,958
For a while.
828
00:37:48,041 --> 00:37:51,416
But that was a complete disaster.
829
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,166
Sorry.
830
00:37:54,250 --> 00:37:57,583
Oh, thank you. But you know,
one good thing came out of it.
831
00:37:57,666 --> 00:37:58,750
What is that?
832
00:37:58,833 --> 00:38:00,125
Sycamore Creek.
833
00:38:01,333 --> 00:38:03,833
It's funny. I moved here for her.
834
00:38:03,916 --> 00:38:06,250
Ironically, I'm the one
who ended up staying.
835
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:07,833
[Ashley] Hmm.
836
00:38:07,916 --> 00:38:09,000
I mean, this is…
837
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,416
I don't know. It's the best place
I could have asked for.
838
00:38:12,958 --> 00:38:15,000
I wish I knew what to ask for.
839
00:38:15,875 --> 00:38:17,250
Or who to ask.
840
00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:20,750
You know, hold that thought.
841
00:38:22,416 --> 00:38:23,833
You focus on the what.
842
00:38:25,125 --> 00:38:26,625
I think I know the who.
843
00:38:26,708 --> 00:38:27,708
Come on.
844
00:38:32,458 --> 00:38:34,458
Uh, excuse me, Santa.
845
00:38:34,541 --> 00:38:36,666
Hi. Time for one more?
846
00:38:36,750 --> 00:38:40,333
Well, that depends.
Have you been naughty or nice?
847
00:38:40,416 --> 00:38:43,333
Are you serious? I haven't
done this since elementary school.
848
00:38:43,416 --> 00:38:46,250
Oh, well, then you are long overdue.
849
00:38:46,333 --> 00:38:47,916
Merry Christmas, you two.
850
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,375
- Thank you.
- Merry Christmas, Santa.
851
00:38:49,458 --> 00:38:51,875
- [Santa chuckles]
- All right. Oh.
852
00:38:51,958 --> 00:38:54,166
- Sit. The whole experience.
- [Ashley clears throat]
853
00:38:54,250 --> 00:38:55,291
- [elf] There we go.
- Yes.
854
00:38:56,166 --> 00:38:57,125
Yep.
855
00:38:59,625 --> 00:39:01,458
- Hmm.
- Don't mind if I do.
856
00:39:01,541 --> 00:39:02,708
- [Ashley] Okay.
- [Luke] Oh.
857
00:39:04,041 --> 00:39:05,791
[Santa] All right, now.
On the count of three,
858
00:39:05,875 --> 00:39:08,791
I want you
to give me your best "ho, ho, ho!"
859
00:39:08,875 --> 00:39:09,916
- Ready?
- Yep.
860
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,708
One, two, three.
861
00:39:12,791 --> 00:39:14,875
[all] Ho, ho, ho!
862
00:39:15,375 --> 00:39:16,541
[camera shutter clicks]
863
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,166
What? What is it?
864
00:39:20,250 --> 00:39:21,291
Nothing.
865
00:39:21,375 --> 00:39:22,916
No, no. You don't get to do that.
866
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,666
I just took my shirt off
for half the town.
867
00:39:25,750 --> 00:39:27,375
- [chuckles]
- You owe me.
868
00:39:29,791 --> 00:39:31,333
I don't know. I was just…
869
00:39:31,958 --> 00:39:34,125
[clears throat] Well…
870
00:39:35,375 --> 00:39:36,750
I was just thinking…
871
00:39:38,833 --> 00:39:40,666
it's always been me on stage,
872
00:39:41,708 --> 00:39:43,750
and I was always in the spotlight.
873
00:39:44,583 --> 00:39:46,958
It's all I ever wanted to do, was perform.
874
00:39:47,791 --> 00:39:48,666
But?
875
00:39:49,750 --> 00:39:50,708
But
876
00:39:51,916 --> 00:39:53,500
watching you guys tonight
877
00:39:54,375 --> 00:39:56,666
and seeing how far you've come,
878
00:39:56,750 --> 00:39:59,791
I mean, it was unexpectedly…
879
00:40:02,375 --> 00:40:03,375
enjoyable.
880
00:40:06,750 --> 00:40:08,125
Do you miss performing?
881
00:40:08,833 --> 00:40:09,833
I did.
882
00:40:10,916 --> 00:40:11,833
[Luke] Hmm.
883
00:40:12,625 --> 00:40:13,833
You know what they say.
884
00:40:15,083 --> 00:40:17,250
When one door closes, another one opens.
885
00:40:18,791 --> 00:40:20,083
Okay. So then…
886
00:40:22,458 --> 00:40:23,916
what's behind this door?
887
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:29,333
Just a carpenter.
888
00:40:39,958 --> 00:40:41,166
[Ashley] All right.
889
00:40:47,583 --> 00:40:50,458
[exhales] I think we might
just pull this off.
890
00:40:51,833 --> 00:40:53,500
[ornaments jingling]
891
00:40:53,583 --> 00:40:54,833

00:58:43,500 --> 00:58:45,750
We have a 9-1-1 situation on our hands.
1240
00:58:45,833 --> 00:58:47,791
I need you to come back immediately.
1241
00:58:47,875 --> 00:58:48,708
What…
1242
00:58:49,791 --> 00:58:50,750
What about Shelby?
1243
00:58:50,833 --> 00:58:54,625
Burned out. Some people just
can't handle the pressure of showbiz.
1244
00:58:54,708 --> 00:58:57,375
[chuckles] And-- and-- and her understudy?
1245
00:58:57,875 --> 00:58:59,666
[Jodie] She's down with the flurona.
1246
00:59:01,208 --> 00:59:02,458
You're serious?
1247
00:59:02,541 --> 00:59:04,791
[Jodie] You're the only one
who knows the routine.
1248
00:59:06,166 --> 00:59:10,000
You're not afraid the audience
will be distracted by my gray hair?
1249
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:15,458
I've convinced the producers that
they made a big mistake in letting you go.
1250
00:59:15,541 --> 00:59:19,666
And to make it up to you,
they're prepared to offer you a 25% raise.
1251
00:59:20,791 --> 00:59:22,041
Twenty-five percent?
1252
00:59:22,666 --> 00:59:24,333
Along with a three-year contract.
1253
00:59:25,291 --> 00:59:28,083
Wow. That is a very tempting offer.
1254
00:59:29,541 --> 00:59:31,708
- Um…
- [exhales] What do you say?
1255
00:59:33,291 --> 00:59:34,166
Uh…
1256
00:59:34,833 --> 00:59:36,083
How could I say no?
1257
00:59:37,708 --> 00:59:41,541
Great. Uh, I'll have Marilyn
book you a first-class ticket,
1258
00:59:41,625 --> 00:59:45,250
and we'll arrange for a car service to
pick you up at the airport tomorrow night.
1259
00:59:45,333 --> 00:59:47,916
Wait, tomorrow night?
No, that's Christmas Eve.
1260
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,375
I need you back in time
for the big Christmas Day show.
1261
00:59:51,458 --> 00:59:52,958
That's not a problem, is it?
1262
00:59:54,041 --> 00:59:55,125
I…
1263
00:59:55,208 --> 00:59:57,166
I just didn't think it would be so soon.
1264
00:59:57,250 --> 00:59:59,750
I pulled a lot of strings for this,
1265
00:59:59,833 --> 01:00:02,416
so don't take too long to decide, okay?
1266
01:00:03,958 --> 01:00:04,791
I won't.
1267
01:00:05,791 --> 01:00:06,666
Thank you.
1268
01:00:20,541 --> 01:00:21,708
[Ashley] Hey, Dad.
1269
01:00:21,791 --> 01:00:23,541
Ah, I didn't realize you were here.
1270
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:26,875
- Yeah.
- You okay?
1271
01:00:27,958 --> 01:00:29,125
Oh, uh… [sighs]
1272
01:00:30,458 --> 01:00:32,875
The choreographer for
the Jingle Belles just called.
1273
01:00:33,458 --> 01:00:34,333
And?
1274
01:00:35,041 --> 01:00:36,625
She offered me my old job back.
1275
01:00:37,208 --> 01:00:39,208
So they finally came to their senses.
1276
01:00:39,291 --> 01:00:41,291
- [chuckles]
- Who came to their senses?
1277
01:00:41,375 --> 01:00:42,833
The Jingle Belles.
1278
01:00:42,916 --> 01:00:45,458
They're offering me a three-year contract.
1279
01:00:45,541 --> 01:00:47,083
Of course they are.
1280
01:00:47,583 --> 01:00:49,583
Now that you've got something
even better here,
1281
01:00:49,666 --> 01:00:51,083
they realize they made a mistake.
1282
01:00:51,166 --> 01:00:53,416
Well, obviously, they made a mistake.
1283
01:00:53,500 --> 01:00:55,583
You are a wonderful talent, honey.
1284
01:00:56,083 --> 01:00:57,875
And a raise.
1285
01:00:57,958 --> 01:01:00,125
I hope you told them
where they could stick it.
1286
01:01:00,833 --> 01:01:03,375
[hesitates] I told them I wasn't sure.
1287
01:01:06,416 --> 01:01:08,416
It's all I've ever wanted to do.
1288
01:01:09,291 --> 01:01:10,208
You know that.
1289
01:01:11,333 --> 01:01:15,416
It's like my whole life has been
building up to being in that show.
1290
01:01:15,500 --> 01:01:17,708
[Stan sighs]
1291
01:01:18,541 --> 01:01:20,000
When would you have to leave?
1292
01:01:21,875 --> 01:01:23,125
Tomorrow night.
1293
01:01:24,250 --> 01:01:25,125
Oh.
1294
01:01:26,208 --> 01:01:29,166
Well, you don't seem
that excited about it.
1295
01:01:29,250 --> 01:01:30,583
[chuckles]
1296
01:01:31,875 --> 01:01:35,458
I was… I was just really looking forward
to spending Christmas with you guys.
1297
01:01:36,333 --> 01:01:38,250
And we're so close to reaching our goal.
1298
01:01:38,333 --> 01:01:40,833
What is gonna happen
to this place if I go?
1299
01:01:40,916 --> 01:01:43,708
Thanks to you,
this place has some life again.
1300
01:01:43,791 --> 01:01:46,416
Who's to say your mother and I
can't keep the show alive?
1301
01:01:46,500 --> 01:01:47,333
Dad.
1302
01:01:47,416 --> 01:01:49,208
Ever since you were a little girl,
1303
01:01:49,291 --> 01:01:51,666
all you ever talked about
was being a Jingle Belle.
1304
01:01:51,750 --> 01:01:52,750
Yeah.
1305
01:01:53,458 --> 01:01:55,333
[Stan] Opportunities like this
1306
01:01:55,416 --> 01:01:58,416
don't often come along once in a lifetime,
1307
01:01:59,583 --> 01:02:00,708
let alone twice.
1308
01:02:01,541 --> 01:02:02,958
[Lily] And you should know
1309
01:02:03,041 --> 01:02:06,833
that the last thing we want is
for you to worry about this place.
1310
01:02:08,166 --> 01:02:10,333
- Your father and I will manage.
- [Stan exhales]
1311
01:02:11,125 --> 01:02:14,500
These are the most
important years of your life.
1312
01:02:15,750 --> 01:02:18,250
You have to live them for you.
1313
01:02:20,916 --> 01:02:21,916
Okay?
1314
01:02:23,375 --> 01:02:24,250
Yeah.
1315
01:02:24,333 --> 01:02:25,500
[Stan chuckles]
1316
01:02:25,583 --> 01:02:26,750
We love you.
1317
01:02:29,750 --> 01:02:32,416
[indistinct chatter]
1318
01:02:56,541 --> 01:02:57,958
[cell phone whooshes]
1319
01:02:59,125 --> 01:03:01,708
[crowd chattering]
1320
01:03:05,375 --> 01:03:07,125
- Packed out there, huh?
- [chuckles]
1321
01:03:09,125 --> 01:03:10,125
[Luke] Huh.
1322
01:03:11,750 --> 01:03:12,708
Luke.
1323
01:03:13,208 --> 01:03:14,125
Um…
1324
01:03:14,666 --> 01:03:15,833
Is something wrong?
1325
01:03:17,083 --> 01:03:18,291
We need to talk.
1326
01:03:18,375 --> 01:03:19,625
Okay.
1327
01:03:20,416 --> 01:03:21,583
I'm leaving.
1328
01:03:21,666 --> 01:03:23,541
Okay, I think that'll be okay.
1329
01:03:23,625 --> 01:03:26,500
I mean, we all know the show pretty well.
1330
01:03:26,583 --> 01:03:28,125
No, no, I'm-- I'm leaving,
1331
01:03:29,250 --> 01:03:30,291
uh, permanently.
1332
01:03:31,958 --> 01:03:32,916
[Luke sighs]
1333
01:03:34,500 --> 01:03:35,541
What are you talking about?
1334
01:03:36,833 --> 01:03:39,291
Well, the Jingle Belles
offered me my old job back,
1335
01:03:39,375 --> 01:03:41,833
and I said… yes.
1336
01:03:43,416 --> 01:03:45,041
Yeah, I'm confused. Uh…
1337
01:03:46,333 --> 01:03:47,958
I thought they hired someone else.
1338
01:03:48,041 --> 01:03:49,083
Yeah, well, they did.
1339
01:03:49,166 --> 01:03:51,166
But then something happened, and
1340
01:03:52,791 --> 01:03:53,916
they changed their mind.
1341
01:03:56,625 --> 01:03:57,541
Um…
1342
01:04:00,250 --> 01:04:01,291
What about…
1343
01:04:01,375 --> 01:04:02,208
[Ashley sighs]
1344
01:04:07,791 --> 01:04:09,125
What about what?
1345
01:04:13,666 --> 01:04:14,791
Ashley, uh,
1346
01:04:15,625 --> 01:04:16,666
she's leaving us.
1347
01:04:18,083 --> 01:04:19,208
Wait, what?
1348
01:04:19,833 --> 01:04:22,583
Yeah, I'm-- I'm going back
to the Jingle Belles.
1349
01:04:24,208 --> 01:04:25,291
Well, what about our show?
1350
01:04:25,875 --> 01:04:29,041
Look, you guys should be
so proud of yourselves.
1351
01:04:29,125 --> 01:04:32,958
I mean, you've worked
your butts off night after night.
1352
01:04:33,041 --> 01:04:34,875
What you've done is incredible.
1353
01:04:37,083 --> 01:04:38,791
And I have all the faith in the world
1354
01:04:38,875 --> 01:04:40,375
that the show will go on
1355
01:04:41,291 --> 01:04:44,666
with or… without me.
1356
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,458
But if I don't go now,
1357
01:04:49,541 --> 01:04:52,000
then I'm gonna lose
everything that I worked for.
1358
01:04:53,375 --> 01:04:55,166
What about everything we worked for?
1359
01:04:58,041 --> 01:04:58,958
Fine.
1360
01:05:00,458 --> 01:05:01,750
[scoffs]
1361
01:05:01,833 --> 01:05:03,333
City girls are all the same.
1362
01:05:03,416 --> 01:05:04,333
Luke.
1363
01:05:07,041 --> 01:05:08,291
[indistinct chatter]
1364
01:05:08,375 --> 01:05:11,333
Luke. Luke, wait. Let me explain, please.
1365
01:05:11,416 --> 01:05:15,041
You know, for the first time
since Amy left,
1366
01:05:15,125 --> 01:05:17,458
I thought I found
something worthwhile in my life.
1367
01:05:17,541 --> 01:05:20,541
I didn't even wanna be
in this ridiculous show.
1368
01:05:20,625 --> 01:05:21,458
But I did it.
1369
01:05:22,250 --> 01:05:23,666
I did. I did it for you.
1370
01:05:24,375 --> 01:05:25,375
And for your family.
1371
01:05:26,458 --> 01:05:30,666
Because you had a passion
and a drive that was so inspiring.
1372
01:05:31,375 --> 01:05:34,166
It was almost impossible
for me not to wanna help you out.
1373
01:05:34,250 --> 01:05:35,375
Yeah?
1374
01:05:35,958 --> 01:05:37,541
And now you're just gonna leave
1375
01:05:39,083 --> 01:05:41,083
without even giving me a heads-up.
1376
01:05:41,166 --> 01:05:42,958
Well… [sighs]
1377
01:05:43,041 --> 01:05:45,291
You're supposed to be
my friendly face, remember?
1378
01:05:45,375 --> 01:05:47,375
Yes. That-- that is what I want.
1379
01:05:47,458 --> 01:05:52,000
I just… I don't know. I got scared,
and then it all happened so fast.
1380
01:05:53,166 --> 01:05:54,791
I was starting to fall for you, Ashley.
1381
01:05:56,375 --> 01:05:57,250
What?
1382
01:05:57,750 --> 01:06:00,000
Thank you for showing me
who you really are before I did.
1383
01:06:01,500 --> 01:06:02,833
You've got me all wrong.
1384
01:06:02,916 --> 01:06:03,833
Congratulations.
1385
01:06:03,916 --> 01:06:06,625
This might have been
your best performance yet.
1386
01:06:07,250 --> 01:06:09,416
Now, one of us has a show to do, so…
1387
01:06:09,500 --> 01:06:11,500
[indistinct chatter]
1388
01:06:35,875 --> 01:06:37,875
- [line rings]
- [clicks]
1389
01:06:37,958 --> 01:06:39,291
[Luke] Hey, you've reached Luke.
1390
01:06:39,375 --> 01:06:41,208
I'm not able to get your call right now,
1391
01:06:41,291 --> 01:06:43,583
but please leave me
a message after the beep.
1392
01:06:43,666 --> 01:06:44,875
- [beeps]
- [gasps]
1393
01:06:46,916 --> 01:06:49,041
[exhales, gasps]
1394
01:06:50,750 --> 01:06:52,666
[shudders]
1395
01:07:01,250 --> 01:07:02,916
There's my shining star.
1396
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:03,875
[laughs]
1397
01:07:06,916 --> 01:07:08,708
I loved having you home, baby girl.
1398
01:07:08,791 --> 01:07:09,708
[Ashley chuckles]
1399
01:07:11,333 --> 01:07:13,250
Now you go back there
and show them how it's done.
1400
01:07:14,666 --> 01:07:15,625
Thanks, Dad.
1401
01:07:17,708 --> 01:07:19,041
- [Stan trills]
- [Ashley sighs]
1402
01:07:19,125 --> 01:07:21,416
Thank you for everything.
1403
01:07:22,041 --> 01:07:23,583
So lucky to have the best big sister.
1404
01:07:25,291 --> 01:07:27,583
Don't let them push you around out there.
1405
01:07:27,666 --> 01:07:29,208
- Promise me?
- Promise.
1406
01:07:30,583 --> 01:07:32,958
So, were you able to connect with Luke?
1407
01:07:34,291 --> 01:07:35,583
[sighs]
1408
01:07:35,666 --> 01:07:36,875
He won't talk to me.
1409
01:07:37,541 --> 01:07:39,125
I can't say that I blame him.
1410
01:07:39,750 --> 01:07:41,791
Well, have you tried reaching out to him?
1411
01:07:41,875 --> 01:07:45,041
Maybe he just, you know,
needed some time to process everything.
1412
01:07:45,125 --> 01:07:47,875

01:17:55,958 --> 01:17:59,708
Can I have everyone's attention, please?
1586
01:18:00,500 --> 01:18:03,500
Just days ago, someone called this place
1587
01:18:03,583 --> 01:18:06,666
"a hole-in-the-wall
with too many holes in the wall."
1588

- [Lily chuckles]
- It was on life support.
1589

But thanks to all of your hard work,
1590
01:18:11,458 --> 01:18:14,000
I am proud to announce…
1591

[Gizmo barks]
1593
01:18:18,083 --> 01:18:20,125
The Rhythm Room is gonna be around
1594
01:18:20,208 --> 01:18:24,125
for many Christmases to come!
1595
01:18:24,208 --> 01:18:26,208
- Yay! All right.
- [cheering]
1596
01:18:27,583 --> 01:18:29,500

- Spectacular.

You!
1600
01:18:33,791 --> 01:18:35,083

1601
01:18:35,166 --> 01:18:37,500

1603
01:18:38,625 --> 01:18:40,208
- [Stan] Well done, all.
- Yes.
1604
01:18:40,291 --> 01:18:41,500
All right.
1605
01:18:41,583 --> 01:18:43,375
[Marie] Sis, you forgot me.
1606
01:18:43,458 --> 01:18:45,333
[Ashley] Oh, sorry. It's a far reach.

[indistinct chatter]
1608

Hi. I was surprised to get your call.
1609
01:18:57,041 --> 01:18:58,750
Just as I promised.
1610
01:18:59,458 --> 01:19:00,458
Every penny.
1611
01:19:01,708 --> 01:19:02,541
Thank you.
1612
01:19:02,625 --> 01:19:03,458
[Ashley] Mm-hmm.
1613
01:19:04,458 --> 01:19:07,625
Ashley… I owe you an apology.
1614
01:19:09,083 --> 01:19:10,583
I underestimated you.
1615
01:19:11,291 --> 01:19:15,333
What you have done with this place
in such a short amount of time is just…
1616
01:19:15,416 --> 01:19:16,750
[Ashley chuckles]
1617
01:19:16,833 --> 01:19:18,333
[Denise] I'm very impressed.
1618
01:19:18,416 --> 01:19:19,416
Thank you.
1619
01:19:19,916 --> 01:19:21,250
I did it all for them.
1620
01:19:27,083 --> 01:19:30,166
But that is not
the only reason I invited you today.
1621
01:19:30,250 --> 01:19:32,083
- Oh.
- Yes.
1622
01:19:32,166 --> 01:19:35,750
Christmas dinner at the Rhythm Room
is a bit of a tradition around here.
1623
01:19:35,833 --> 01:19:37,041
Yes.
1624
01:19:37,125 --> 01:19:38,250
And thanks to you,
1625
01:19:38,333 --> 01:19:40,625
it's a tradition
that won't go away any time soon.
1626
01:19:40,708 --> 01:19:43,000
Yes. We would love for you to join us.
1627
01:19:46,916 --> 01:19:48,125
[hesitates] I'd--
1628
01:19:48,208 --> 01:19:49,708
I'd be honored to join. [chuckles]
1629
01:19:50,333 --> 01:19:52,125
Get in here. We'll put you at the head.
1630

[Denise gasps, chuckles]
1631
01:19:56,125 --> 01:19:57,000
[Luke] So
1632
01:19:58,541 --> 01:20:01,625
what's next for the famous Ashley Davis?
1633
01:20:02,666 --> 01:20:05,875
You know, for the first time
in my whole life, I have no idea.
1634

[chuckles]
1635

But whatever it is,
it will be right here in Sycamore Creek.
1636
01:20:15,208 --> 01:20:16,208
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
1637
01:20:18,416 --> 01:20:21,666
You know, my whole life,
all I ever wanted to do was be on stage.
1638
01:20:22,750 --> 01:20:24,541

by the people you love.

You know,
1641
01:20:29,625 --> 01:20:32,208
it's not performing that's important.
1642
01:20:33,833 --> 01:20:35,541
It's who you perform for.
1643
01:20:36,791 --> 01:20:40,791
Well, that's good advice.

What about you?
1653
01:21:15,583 --> 01:21:18,458
Do you have a favorite Christmas memory?
