if she doesn't want to.

186
00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:09,717
Oh, she thinks

187
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,806
she's too grown-up
for Christmas,

188
00:06:11,849 --> 00:06:13,068
but she will regret

189
00:06:13,111 --> 00:06:14,330
not taking part
in family traditions...

190
00:06:16,332 --> 00:06:18,378
...especially with you
running off to Denver.

191
00:06:18,421 --> 00:06:19,422
Well, I haven't decided

192
00:06:19,466 --> 00:06:20,728
if I'm going
to take the job yet.

193
00:06:20,771 --> 00:06:22,947
That's why I haven't
told anyone but you.

194
00:06:24,471 --> 00:06:27,343
Gage, you've been
Sheriff here for... forever.

195
00:06:28,779 --> 00:06:30,564
I think maybe it's time
to try something else.

196
00:06:30,607 --> 00:06:32,914
Something
with more responsibility.

197
00:06:32,957 --> 00:06:34,742
A bigger department
means more opportunity.

198
00:06:34,785 --> 00:06:36,265
But if we get that ski resort,

199
00:06:36,308 --> 00:06:37,353
we'll have all of that
right here.

200
00:06:38,572 --> 00:06:40,617
Nell, I just think...

201
00:06:40,661 --> 00:06:42,184
I think
maybe we need a fresh start.

Yeah.

216
00:07:07,557 --> 00:07:08,689
So that must be
good news then, right?

217
00:07:08,732 --> 00:07:09,994
Yeah.

218
00:07:10,038 --> 00:07:11,474
They're sending someone
named Madison Lane,

and she's going to make
the recommendation,

220
00:07:12,823 --> 00:07:14,172
so we really
have to impress her.

221
00:07:14,216 --> 00:07:16,131
I'm going to call Rachel
right now

222
00:07:16,174 --> 00:07:17,654

a presentation.

Aren't we better off

when she gets here?

No.

We need refreshments
and decorations and...

228
00:07:25,445 --> 00:07:26,750
And maybe bring in
the high-school marching band?

229
00:07:26,794 --> 00:07:29,057
No, the town hall is too small.

230

too far out of your way.

or start to get dizzy,

00:12:17,345 --> 00:12:18,999
Great. Thank you.

365
00:12:23,743 --> 00:12:24,613
[whispering excitedly]

366
00:12:26,789 --> 00:12:28,573
You told me you were
the Carter County Sheriff.

367
00:12:28,617 --> 00:12:30,097
You didn't say
you were from Christmas.

368
00:12:30,140 --> 00:12:32,273
Christmas is pretty much
the only town in Carter County.

369
00:12:32,316 --> 00:12:33,143
How would I know that?

370
00:12:33,187 --> 00:12:34,797
A map?

371
00:12:34,841 --> 00:12:36,494
Listen,
about what I said earlier...

372
00:12:36,538 --> 00:12:38,105
The part
where you have already decided

373
00:12:38,148 --> 00:12:40,411
that Christmas shouldn't get
the ski resort?

374
00:12:40,455 --> 00:12:42,413
I don't think I used
those exact words, but...

375
00:12:42,457 --> 00:12:45,939
You might have a concussion
because that is what you said.

376
00:12:45,982 --> 00:12:47,462
It's not personal.

377
00:12:47,505 --> 00:12:50,073
Like I said, it's just business.

378
00:12:50,117 --> 00:12:52,684
Well, it's personal
to this town.

379
00:12:52,728 --> 00:12:54,164
Maybe your company
should send someone out

380
00:12:54,208 --> 00:12:55,775
who hasn't made up
their mind already.

381
00:13:00,997 --> 00:13:03,739
Look, I'm sure this is
a really lovely town,

382
00:13:03,783 --> 00:13:05,393
it's just not the right fit.

383
00:13:07,525 --> 00:13:08,875
I'll keep an open mind...

384
00:13:08,918 --> 00:13:10,180
at least until my car is fixed.

385
00:13:13,270 --> 00:13:14,445
Everyone, come here, come here.

386
00:13:14,489 --> 00:13:16,317
We've got a problem.

387
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,535
We need your help, Tom.

388
00:13:18,580 --> 00:13:19,537
Okay.

389
00:13:20,669 --> 00:13:21,844
...And with a name
like "Christmas,"

390
00:13:21,888 --> 00:13:22,889
it should make it clear

391
00:13:22,932 --> 00:13:25,195
why we're...

392
00:13:25,239 --> 00:13:28,546
"Santa's second-favorite town
after the North Pole."

393
00:13:28,590 --> 00:13:29,852
Mm. [chuckles]

394
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:32,855
You know...

395
00:13:32,899 --> 00:13:34,552
I think that slogan
could use some work.

396
00:13:34,596 --> 00:13:35,771
We could change it,

397
00:13:35,815 --> 00:13:38,295
or we could just bring in
the marching band

398
00:13:38,339 --> 00:13:39,688
if you thought that might help!

399
00:13:39,731 --> 00:13:41,472
Oh, no, no. Thank you.

400
00:13:41,516 --> 00:13:42,909
This was great.

401
00:13:42,952 --> 00:13:46,521
Thank you
for such a lovely presentation.

402
00:13:46,564 --> 00:13:48,697
I think you have a really pretty
little town here.

403
00:13:55,399 --> 00:13:57,532
Miss Lane,
you haven't seen much of it.

404
00:13:57,575 --> 00:13:58,359
We could take you on a tour?

405
00:13:58,402 --> 00:14:00,187
Oh! There!

406
00:14:02,972 --> 00:14:04,017
Oh...

407
00:14:04,060 --> 00:14:05,192
yeah.

408
00:14:05,235 --> 00:14:06,454
I mean...

409
00:14:06,497 --> 00:14:07,368
I might have time for that.

410
00:14:08,456 --> 00:14:10,110
Unless the...

411
00:14:10,153 --> 00:14:12,112
issue I had...

412
00:14:12,155 --> 00:14:13,243
has been resolved?

413
00:14:13,287 --> 00:14:14,679
Issue?

414
00:14:14,723 --> 00:14:16,768
[Gage]: Car trouble.

415
00:14:16,812 --> 00:14:18,031
[door opens]

416
00:14:18,074 --> 00:14:18,945
Oh, there's Tom right now.

417
00:14:18,988 --> 00:14:19,902
We can ask him.

418
00:14:19,946 --> 00:14:21,121
Oh.

419
00:14:21,164 --> 00:14:22,252
I'm Tom Hubbard.

420
00:14:22,296 --> 00:14:23,340
I took a look at your car,
Ms. Lane,

421
00:14:23,384 --> 00:14:25,212
and I hate to be the one
to tell you,

422
00:14:25,255 --> 00:14:26,996
but that thing ain't going
anywhere anytime soon.

423
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:28,519
- Oh...
- [Madison]: What?

424
00:14:28,563 --> 00:14:30,130
It didn't look that bad.

425
00:14:30,173 --> 00:14:31,871
Yeah, well, it never does.

426
00:14:31,914 --> 00:14:32,959
I mean, those fancy new cars...

427
00:14:33,002 --> 00:14:35,091
you just look at them wrong,

428
00:14:35,135 --> 00:14:37,093
and they're in the shop
for a couple of days.

429
00:14:37,137 --> 00:14:38,355
No, no.

430
00:14:38,399 --> 00:14:40,923
I can't stay here for...
days.

431
00:14:42,446 --> 00:14:44,927
I will rent a car
and I'll come back later.

432
00:14:44,971 --> 00:14:47,190
Denver is a four-hour drive.

433
00:14:47,234 --> 00:14:49,453
I'm sure by Monday,
everything will be settled,

434
00:14:49,497 --> 00:14:51,934
and then you will have made
a four-drive to home

435
00:14:51,978 --> 00:14:53,196
and all the way back again.

436
00:14:54,197 --> 00:14:56,504
And besides,

437
00:14:56,547 --> 00:14:59,072
we have a big event

438
00:14:59,115 --> 00:15:01,291
that we want you to see
tomorrow.

439
00:15:01,335 --> 00:15:02,945
Yes! The...

440
00:15:02,989 --> 00:15:04,164
Festival of Lights.

441
00:15:04,207 --> 00:15:05,469
The opening!

442
00:15:05,513 --> 00:15:07,515
We have a big ceremony
planned for tomorrow.

443
00:15:09,473 --> 00:15:11,388
Yes! It's a festival.

444
00:15:11,432 --> 00:15:13,129
With lights.

445
00:15:13,173 --> 00:15:14,348
So many lights.

446
00:15:14,391 --> 00:15:16,654
And you...

447
00:15:16,698 --> 00:15:17,829
you are going to be the one
to turn them on.

448
00:15:17,873 --> 00:15:18,743
She's what?

449
00:15:18,787 --> 00:15:20,180
I'm what?

450
00:15:20,223 --> 00:15:24,314
You are going to be the one
to push the big button

451
00:15:24,358 --> 00:15:25,881
at the Festival of Lights, yeah.

452
00:15:25,925 --> 00:15:27,535
Really?

453
00:15:27,578 --> 00:15:28,362
We just assumed that you were
going to stay for the weekend

454
00:15:28,405 --> 00:15:29,580
because we thought, you know,

455
00:15:29,624 --> 00:15:30,755
you want
to get to know us better,

456
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:32,670
so it was going to be
a surprise,

457
00:15:32,714 --> 00:15:33,976
right, Mr. Mayor?

458
00:15:36,413 --> 00:15:37,937
Surprise! Surprise.

459
00:15:37,980 --> 00:15:38,894
[laughing]

460
00:15:40,243 --> 00:15:42,332
That's quite a surprise,
isn't it Sheriff?

461
00:15:44,030 --> 00:15:45,335
Uh, it is. Yes.

462
00:15:45,379 --> 00:15:48,556
And since you'll be with us
for the weekend,

463
00:15:48,599 --> 00:15:49,818
because of your car,

464
00:15:49,861 --> 00:15:53,343
you'll have time to do
your due diligence.

465
00:15:53,387 --> 00:15:55,476
Isn't that how your boss put it?

466
00:15:57,043 --> 00:15:57,957
Hmm.

467
00:15:59,306 --> 00:16:00,437
Yes.

468
00:16:00,481 --> 00:16:05,660
I... am going to make
a few calls...

469
00:16:05,703 --> 00:16:06,574
not that I have a choice.

470
00:16:08,968 --> 00:16:11,622
Is there a hotel...

471
00:16:11,666 --> 00:16:13,407
Actually, I have
a bed and breakfast

472
00:16:13,450 --> 00:16:14,582
just down the street.

473
00:16:14,625 --> 00:16:15,844
I could set up
a little room for you.

474
00:16:15,887 --> 00:16:17,541
Okay.

475
00:16:17,585 --> 00:16:19,065
Perfect, right?

476
00:16:19,108 --> 00:16:21,023
Ethan, why don't you
take Madison to the back office

477
00:16:21,067 --> 00:16:23,765
so she can make those calls
and then we can go?

478
00:16:23,808 --> 00:16:24,722
[Ethan]: Sure.

479
00:16:29,162 --> 00:16:31,033
It's right this way.

480
00:16:31,077 --> 00:16:32,687
So, how was your drive in?

481
00:16:32,730 --> 00:16:33,993
Everything was okay?

482
00:16:34,036 --> 00:16:35,472
We haven't done
the Festival of Lights in years.

483
00:16:35,516 --> 00:16:37,300
How are we going
to pull this off?

484
00:16:37,344 --> 00:16:38,432
Okay. Call everyone in town.

485
00:16:39,476 --> 00:16:40,608
We need to get

486
00:16:40,651 --> 00:16:41,435
all the Christmas lights
and decorations

487
00:16:41,478 --> 00:16:42,784
we can get our hands on.

488
00:16:42,827 --> 00:16:44,133
Oh! And a big...

489
00:16:44,177 --> 00:16:45,526
a big button.

490
00:16:45,569 --> 00:16:47,006
Go, go, go!

491
00:16:49,443 --> 00:16:53,925
Well, we clearly haven't
impressed Madison Lane,

492
00:16:53,969 --> 00:16:55,405
so we're going
to have to wow her.

493
00:16:59,018 --> 00:17:01,063
Okay, we've got a team
getting the word out

494
00:17:01,107 --> 00:17:02,717
for folks to bring

495
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:04,849
whatever decorations and lights
they can spare to the park.

496
00:17:04,893 --> 00:17:07,243
There must be some sort of law
against what we're doing.

497
00:17:07,287 --> 00:17:08,549
Yeah, well, luckily,
I know the Sheriff.

498
00:17:10,942 --> 00:17:12,596
Oh.

499
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,076
Well...

500
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:15,077
you ready for that tour
of the town we promised you?

501
00:17:15,121 --> 00:17:16,122
Yeah.

502
00:17:16,165 --> 00:17:17,297
And then after, we can fix you

503
00:17:17,340 --> 00:17:18,124
a nice home-cooked meal
at our house.

504
00:17:18,167 --> 00:17:20,909
How does that sound?

505
00:17:20,952 --> 00:17:23,651
Yeah, that sounds great.

506
00:17:23,694 --> 00:17:24,913
Great... then shall we?

507
00:17:24,956 --> 00:17:25,870
Yeah.

508
00:17:27,829 --> 00:17:29,178
[Gage]: Please.

509
00:17:31,615 --> 00:17:32,660
And up until 1933,

510
00:17:32,703 --> 00:17:35,880
this town was called
Bryce Valley,

511
00:17:35,924 --> 00:17:37,230
and every year,

512
00:17:37,273 --> 00:17:39,754
they decorated the streets
and the buildings...

513
00:17:39,797 --> 00:17:41,364
turned it into
a real wonderland.

514
00:17:41,408 --> 00:17:42,583
And people loved it so much,

515
00:17:42,626 --> 00:17:43,714
they started calling it
"Christmas-Town."

516
00:17:43,758 --> 00:17:45,064
So one year,

517
00:17:45,107 --> 00:17:46,717
everyone got together
and voted to change it.

518
00:17:46,761 --> 00:17:49,068
That's how we became known

519
00:17:49,111 --> 00:17:51,722
as Santa's "second favorite town
after the North Pole."

520
00:17:51,766 --> 00:17:54,334
That slogan really does
need help.

521
00:17:54,377 --> 00:17:55,944
Madison, you can help with that.

522
00:17:55,987 --> 00:17:56,727
I will give it some thought.

523
00:17:58,381 --> 00:18:01,602
Uh, and the town hall
on the south side of town

524
00:18:01,645 --> 00:18:02,951
is where we have our big event...

525
00:18:02,994 --> 00:18:04,213
the annual Holiday Fair.

526
00:18:05,432 --> 00:18:06,824
And it is wonderful.

527
00:18:06,868 --> 00:18:08,522
We've got games,

528
00:18:08,565 --> 00:18:11,002
we've got recipes handed down
for generations,

529
00:18:11,046 --> 00:18:12,787
stockings, ornaments...

530
00:18:12,830 --> 00:18:14,310
all hand-made,
right here in Christmas...

531
00:18:14,354 --> 00:18:18,097
and a choir made up of families
from all across town

532
00:18:18,140 --> 00:18:19,489
who take turns singing carols.

533
00:18:19,533 --> 00:18:20,795
Oh, that sounds lovely.

534
00:18:20,838 --> 00:18:22,101
Oh, it is.

535
00:18:22,144 --> 00:18:23,232
You're going to have
so much fun.

536
00:18:24,451 --> 00:18:26,453
Except I'm not going to be here.

537
00:18:26,496 --> 00:18:27,889
My car will be ready by then.

538
00:18:27,932 --> 00:18:30,196
Oh, you're probably right.

539
00:18:34,591 --> 00:18:35,723
Probably?

540
00:18:42,817 --> 00:18:47,082
♪ ♪

541
00:18:47,126 --> 00:18:48,649
Pretty nice, huh?

542
00:18:50,259 --> 00:18:51,521
I think you missed a spot.

543
00:18:52,914 --> 00:18:54,089
Well, a lesson
you should learn quickly...

544
00:18:54,133 --> 00:18:55,351
with Nell,

545

1089

Can we put it on the tree?

It was lot of fun.

1159

My folks would have
our friends and neighbors over

1160

and everybody would eat, laugh,
sing Christmas carols.

1161

You always won.

Always.

00:43:00,186 --> 00:43:01,840

Christmas to be.

1166

when the final buzzer goes off.

a new town slogan for the sign...

1617
01:01:28,336 --> 01:01:30,382
once we get a new one, that is.

1618
01:01:31,775 --> 01:01:33,211
You never figured out
how the old one got damaged?

1619
01:01:33,254 --> 01:01:34,168
It's still a mystery.

1620
01:01:34,212 --> 01:01:35,735
Isn't it, Madison?

1621
01:01:35,779 --> 01:01:37,737
Someone should
call the town sheriff.

1622
01:01:40,044 --> 01:01:41,088
We'd better go.

1623
01:01:41,132 --> 01:01:42,220
If we're late
for choir practice,

1624
01:01:42,263 --> 01:01:42,960
we'll never hear
the end of it from Nell.

1625
01:01:44,091 --> 01:01:44,962
I will work on that slogan.

1626
01:01:45,005 --> 01:01:46,398
Okay.

1627
01:01:49,531 --> 01:01:50,707
Can I ask you something?

1628
01:01:52,534 --> 01:01:53,884
Why do you love it here so much?

1629
01:01:55,015 --> 01:01:56,451
Doing research
for the new slogan?

1630
01:01:56,495 --> 01:01:58,105
Sure.

1631
01:01:59,324 --> 01:02:00,629
You talked about

1632
01:02:00,673 --> 01:02:02,109
what Christmas was like
when you were a kid...

1633
01:02:02,153 --> 01:02:03,415
that feeling you had,

1634
01:02:03,458 --> 01:02:06,113
the community, the family.

1635
01:02:06,157 --> 01:02:07,941
Right?

1636
01:02:07,985 --> 01:02:09,290
Your home now...

1637
01:02:09,334 --> 01:02:11,379
is that where you dream
of spending Christmas?

1638
01:02:14,208 --> 01:02:17,603
I guess I don't have
a good answer to that.

1639
01:02:17,646 --> 01:02:19,431
Denver is a nice city.

1640
01:02:19,474 --> 01:02:20,693
But home isn't a city.

1641
01:02:20,737 --> 01:02:21,738
It's the people.

1642
01:02:21,781 --> 01:02:23,565
All these people here...

1643
01:02:23,609 --> 01:02:24,958
they're my family.

1644
01:02:25,002 --> 01:02:26,525
Does that mean you're not going
to take the new job?

1645
01:02:27,744 --> 01:02:28,440
I haven't decided yet.

1646
01:02:30,572 --> 01:02:32,705
Gage... about the job...

1647
01:02:32,749 --> 01:02:33,793
I might have...

1648
01:02:33,837 --> 01:02:36,056
[Aunt Nell]: Hey, you two!
Come on!

1649
01:02:36,100 --> 01:02:37,231
[Gage]: We're coming!

1650
01:02:38,798 --> 01:02:40,017
Now, that's family.

01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:49,069

1652
01:02:49,113 --> 01:02:51,158

1653
01:02:51,202 --> 01:02:53,944
You couldn't get Annie
to join the choir practice?

1654
01:02:53,987 --> 01:02:55,772
She says she's too old for this.

1655
01:02:57,121 --> 01:02:58,426
I don't know.

1656
01:02:58,470 --> 01:02:59,645
I get the feeling

1657
01:02:59,688 --> 01:03:01,255
this might be
a little bigger than that.

1658
01:03:01,299 --> 01:03:02,953
Yeah. She used to love
singing with her mom.

1659
01:03:04,171 --> 01:03:05,782
I've tried to talk to her
about it, but...

1660
01:03:07,740 --> 01:03:08,697
I think if you could
just get her up there,

1661
01:03:08,741 --> 01:03:11,483
she'd have fun.

1662
01:03:11,526 --> 01:03:12,832
Do you mind if I give it a shot?

1663
01:03:12,876 --> 01:03:14,442
Go ahead.

1664
01:03:16,183 --> 01:03:18,142
Hey.

1665
01:03:18,185 --> 01:03:19,317
Can I watch them practice
with you?

1666
01:03:20,884 --> 01:03:22,624
I thought you were going
to be in the choir.

1667
01:03:22,668 --> 01:03:24,017
Oh, yeah, I was,

1668
01:03:24,061 --> 01:03:25,671
but then I realized,
nobody wants to hear me sing.

1669
01:03:28,543 --> 01:03:30,197
I just hope
Lily isn't too disappointed.

1670
01:03:30,241 --> 01:03:31,808
I know how much she wanted
us all up there.

1671
01:03:31,851 --> 01:03:33,766
[Annie]: She did?

1672
01:03:33,810 --> 01:03:34,898
[Madison]: Yeah.

1673
01:03:36,943 --> 01:03:39,380
I think she was remembering
what it was like in the past...

1674
01:03:39,424 --> 01:03:41,252
but...

1675
01:03:41,295 --> 01:03:42,644
looking forward

1676
01:03:42,688 --> 01:03:43,515
to what it could be
in the future.

1677
01:03:48,433 --> 01:03:49,347
Well...

1678
01:03:50,565 --> 01:03:52,741
If Lily was really
looking forward to it.

1679
01:04:01,272 --> 01:04:02,229
[Gage]: Time for bed.

1680
01:04:02,273 --> 01:04:04,231
I'm almost finished.

1681
01:04:05,798 --> 01:04:07,060
I thought you already read that.

1682
01:04:07,104 --> 01:04:08,279
I'm reading it again.

1683
01:04:09,628 --> 01:04:11,630
You know, that was...

1684
01:04:11,673 --> 01:04:12,805
one of Mom's favorite books.

1685
01:04:12,849 --> 01:04:15,025
She used to read that
every Christmas.

1686
01:04:16,156 --> 01:04:17,375
I know.

1687
01:04:17,418 --> 01:04:19,029
I wanted to read it before,

1688
01:04:19,072 --> 01:04:21,248
but she wanted me to wait
until I was older.

1689
01:04:21,292 --> 01:04:22,902
She thought I would get scared
by the ghosts.

1690
01:04:22,946 --> 01:04:24,556
[chuckles]

1691
01:04:24,599 --> 01:04:25,774
She told me the same thing.

1692
01:04:27,515 --> 01:04:29,126
Maybe I should read it
after you're done.

1693
01:04:29,169 --> 01:04:30,127
You haven't read it?

1694
01:04:30,170 --> 01:04:31,911
I've seen the movies.

1695
01:04:31,955 --> 01:04:34,348
Dad! It's not the same.

1696
01:04:34,392 --> 01:04:35,436
The book is so much better.

1697
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:36,916
How so?

1698
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:38,352
Well, for starters,

1699
01:04:38,396 --> 01:04:40,528
you get a better idea
of what Scrooge is thinking,

1700
01:04:40,572 --> 01:04:41,834
so you really feel it

1701
01:04:41,878 --> 01:04:43,314
when he realizes
the true meaning of Christmas.

1702
01:04:45,011 --> 01:04:45,838
And what I love about it
is there's so much...

1703
01:04:56,066 --> 01:04:57,415
[Madison knocks gently]

1704
01:05:02,899 --> 01:05:04,248
Whoa.

1705
01:05:04,291 --> 01:05:06,424
You decided to take her
out of retirement, huh?

1706
01:05:06,467 --> 01:05:07,904
Yeah.

1707
01:05:07,947 --> 01:05:10,080
I.. I think it's time.

1708
01:05:10,123 --> 01:05:11,908
What brought this on?

1709
01:05:16,086 --> 01:05:18,436
I was considering leaving

1710
01:05:18,479 --> 01:05:20,568
because I thought
we needed a change.

1711
01:05:20,612 --> 01:05:22,135
A fresh start.

1712
01:05:22,179 --> 01:05:23,832
And now?

1713
01:05:23,876 --> 01:05:26,270
And now...

1714
01:05:26,313 --> 01:05:28,098
I think change doesn't mean

1715
01:05:28,141 --> 01:05:30,927
you have to give up everything
that means something to you.

1716
01:05:32,058 --> 01:05:33,277
I'm glad to hear it.

1717
01:05:35,105 --> 01:05:36,715
[cell phone ringing]

1718
01:05:38,891 --> 01:05:39,805
I'm sorry.

1719
01:05:42,155 --> 01:05:43,374
It's work.
I've got to take it.

1720
01:05:43,417 --> 01:05:44,505
Yeah.

1721
01:05:44,549 --> 01:05:45,463
Sorry.

1722
01:05:51,208 --> 01:05:52,165
Joe...

1723
01:05:52,209 --> 01:05:54,037
What's going on?

1724
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,126
Madison, I've been reviewing

1725
01:05:56,169 --> 01:05:58,432
the town's proposal,
the financial benefits,

1726
01:05:58,476 --> 01:05:59,607
and what you've said

1727
01:05:59,651 --> 01:06:01,435
about how charming the place is.

1728
01:06:01,479 --> 01:06:03,960
I've decided we're going
to put the resort in Christmas.

1729
01:06:05,962 --> 01:06:07,093
That's great news, Joe.

1730
01:06:07,137 --> 01:06:08,529
I'm so happy to hear it.

1731
01:06:08,573 --> 01:06:09,835
I'm glad you finally came around

1732
01:06:09,878 --> 01:06:11,315
to my way of thinking.

1733
01:06:11,358 --> 01:06:14,057
[Joe]: When should we announce
the decision?

1734
01:06:14,100 --> 01:06:15,232
Well, they have

1735
01:06:15,275 --> 01:06:17,147
a big holiday fair
starting tomorrow.

1736
01:06:17,190 --> 01:06:18,713
The whole town's coming out.

1737
01:06:18,757 --> 01:06:19,976
It could be really nice
to do it here on Christmas Eve.

1738
01:06:20,019 --> 01:06:21,325
That sounds good.

1739
01:06:21,368 --> 01:06:22,239
Will you arrange it
with the mayor?

1740
01:06:22,282 --> 01:06:23,631
I will.

1741
01:06:23,675 --> 01:06:25,807
I think everyone's
going to be really excited.

1742
01:06:25,851 --> 01:06:27,026
[Harrison]: They should be.

1743
01:06:27,070 --> 01:06:27,896
I mean, just think
of all the businesses

1744
01:06:27,940 --> 01:06:28,941
it'll bring to town...

1745
01:06:28,985 --> 01:06:30,595
malls, stores, restaurants.

1746
01:06:30,638 --> 01:06:32,118
They'll be as big
as Mountain Park

1747
01:06:32,162 --> 01:06:33,250
before you know it.

1748
01:06:34,729 --> 01:06:36,035
But...

1749
01:06:36,079 --> 01:06:39,082
I mean, Christmas
will still be Christmas.

1750
01:06:39,125 --> 01:06:40,692
[Joe]: Well, sure.

1751
01:06:40,735 --> 01:06:43,086
Just a bigger, better,
more modern version of it.

1752
01:06:43,129 --> 01:06:45,218
We'll see you
on Christmas Eve, Madison,

1753
01:06:45,262 --> 01:06:46,480
and then we'll get you
back to Denver.

1754
01:06:46,524 --> 01:06:48,178
I'm sure you'll be glad
to get home.

1755
01:06:48,221 --> 01:06:50,963
Yeah...

1756
01:06:51,007 --> 01:06:52,921
I will.

1757
01:06:52,965 --> 01:06:53,879
Bye.

1758
01:07:18,251 --> 01:07:19,165
[Dana]: Hey, Madison.

1759
01:07:19,209 --> 01:07:20,906
Dana, hi.

1760
01:07:20,949 --> 01:07:22,386
I need help with research

1761
01:07:22,429 --> 01:07:23,778
on some of the small towns
where we've built resorts.

1762
01:07:23,822 --> 01:07:26,085
Parkersburg, Shelter Lake,
Mill Valley.

1763
01:07:26,129 --> 01:07:27,739
I need to know

1764
01:07:27,782 --> 01:07:30,959
what happens to the towns
after we build.

1765
01:07:34,311 --> 01:07:37,140
♪ ♪

1766
01:07:37,183 --> 01:07:39,794
Dana, this is not good.

1767
01:07:39,838 --> 01:07:41,231
When we put resorts
near small towns,

1768
01:07:41,274 --> 01:07:42,362
they do fine on paper,

1769
01:07:42,406 --> 01:07:43,581
but it's usually at the expense

1770
01:07:43,624 --> 01:07:45,757
of the businesses
that already exist.

1771
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:47,150
Big chains come along

1772
01:07:47,193 --> 01:07:48,760
and force the closure
of the mom and pop stores.

1773
01:07:48,803 --> 01:07:50,718
Change can be good, right?

1774
01:07:50,762 --> 01:07:51,676
Sometimes...

1775
01:07:54,896 --> 01:07:56,942
You know, I pick the sites
and I open the resorts

1776
01:07:56,985 --> 01:07:58,639
and then I just leave.

1777
01:07:58,683 --> 01:08:01,077
I never see what happens
to the towns afterward.

1778
01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:02,208
That is not your fault.

1779
01:08:02,252 --> 01:08:04,123
It is when I know

1780
01:08:04,167 --> 01:08:06,038
that the ski resort
isn't going to save Christmas,

1781
01:08:06,082 --> 01:08:07,561
it's going to destroy everything
that makes it special.

1782
01:08:10,216 --> 01:08:11,217
I can't let this happen.

1783
01:08:11,261 --> 01:08:12,827
Well, what are you going to do?

1784
01:08:15,482 --> 01:08:16,701
I need to convince the town.

1785
01:08:19,660 --> 01:08:20,444
What about Mr. Hartwell?

1786
01:08:21,706 --> 01:08:23,011
I mean, he's pretty excited

1787
01:08:23,055 --> 01:08:24,274
about putting
the new resort there.

1788
01:08:24,317 --> 01:08:25,840
Then I need
to convince him first.

How are things in Christmas?

1802
01:09:15,412 --> 01:09:16,717
Hi, Joe.

1803
01:09:16,761 --> 01:09:18,502
That's actually why I'm calling.

1804
01:09:18,545 --> 01:09:19,459
I've been thinking about it,

1805
01:09:19,503 --> 01:09:20,982
and I don't think

1806
01:09:21,026 --> 01:09:22,332
we should put the resort
in Christmas after all.

1807
01:09:22,375 --> 01:09:24,203
What?

1808
01:09:24,247 --> 01:09:25,813
Why not?

1809
01:09:25,857 --> 01:09:28,033
I'm worried about the impact
it'll have on the town.

1810
01:09:28,076 --> 01:09:30,122
Our resorts
help places like Christmas.

1811
01:09:30,166 --> 01:09:31,950
In some ways,

1812
01:09:31,993 --> 01:09:33,081
but I've been researching

1813
01:09:33,125 --> 01:09:34,039
smaller towns
where we put resorts,

1814
01:09:34,082 --> 01:09:35,519
and local businesses

1815
01:09:35,562 --> 01:09:37,434
end up being replaced by
bigger chains and strip malls.

1816
01:09:37,477 --> 01:09:39,175
That's called progress, Madison.

1817
01:09:39,218 --> 01:09:40,219
Maybe for them,

1818
01:09:40,263 --> 01:09:42,874
but it wouldn't be
for Christmas.

1819
01:09:42,917 --> 01:09:44,615
I mean, this town's character

1820
01:09:44,658 --> 01:09:46,660
is what makes it so unique
to begin with.

1821
01:09:46,704 --> 01:09:48,140
It's everything
the holiday is about.

1822
01:09:49,750 --> 01:09:51,230
I don't understand.

1823
01:09:51,274 --> 01:09:53,058
The financial deal
that Christmas is offering

1824
01:09:53,101 --> 01:09:54,102
is very appealing.

1825
01:09:54,146 --> 01:09:55,452
It is worth it.

1826
01:09:55,495 --> 01:09:57,410
I would think that
you'd be on board with that.

1827
01:09:57,454 --> 01:10:00,892
I know, but the cost
to Christmas would be too great.

1828
01:10:00,935 --> 01:10:02,894
Then why does the town
want the resort?

1829
01:10:02,937 --> 01:10:04,461
Because they don't realize that.

1830
01:10:04,504 --> 01:10:07,246
So it's our job
to make that decision for them?

1831
01:10:07,290 --> 01:10:08,595
No, but we should be
upfront with them

1832
01:10:08,639 --> 01:10:10,510
about what exactly
the resort will bring.

1833
01:10:10,554 --> 01:10:12,904
And it is our job to consider
better alternatives,

1834
01:10:12,947 --> 01:10:15,167

and for Christmas.

with your heart here.

I mean,

It's about much more
