Cara? Sorry to keep you waiting.
Hi.
Merry Christmas.
Thank you for seeing me on such short notice.
Are you kidding me?
For you.
What's this?
Oh, it's just a little something.
Oh, a little somethin'? I like that.
Come on, let's chat into my office.
Yes.
How you been?
Good.
Yeah?
Busy. What about you?
Oh, hustle and bustle, the big city, Christmas-time?
Oh, you know my wife loves the raspberry vanilla jam.
I remember, that's why I brought two.
Oh.
I also brought you a sneak peek of our new flavour.
It's peanut butter maple.
Well, thank you Cara.
It'll be nice to have a little bit of home at Christmas-time.
Yeah.
I was really sorry to hear about your Mom.
She was a remarkable lady and an astute businesswoman.
You've got big shoes to fill.
That's actually why I'm here. Um...
We've had some unexpected costs,
so, we'll make it all back next year,
but we do need a loan to help us get through this
so we don't have to lay off workers during the slow season.
Stonebridge Preserves has been around for generations,
and we want them to be around for many more.
But in order for that to happen,
you're going to need to institute some changes.
I know you pride yourself on being handcrafted,
but perhaps it's time to consider trimming the workforce
by adding more a jam making machine.
I mean, the people back home depend on the jobs
that we provide them.
I mean, you yourself worked there in high school.
I know.
But I do have an idea for a new revenue source.
Okay.
So, this would be a new product that we could develop
during our slow season.
Candy bars.
They would be all-natural, no additives,
and they'd be made with the... the fruits,
and the nuts, and everything directly from our distributors.
So, I've done a lot of research into the materials,
the production...
Cara, this is all really important.
It is.
It's just, uh, it's difficult to launch a new product,
especially in this busy marketplace.
So you need to tell me.
What makes this one so special?
The Stonebridge name.
Three generations of craft.
I'm afraid that's just not distinctive enough.
I'm sorry, Cara. My... my hands are tied.
I really am sorry.

Now over to Madison Square Gardens,
country star Heath Sawyer wowed fans last night
with the usual spirited rendition of his favourites.
But the lack of new material left some of us wondering
if he'll ever have another hit.
Merry Christmas!
Um, Heath?
Heath?
I'm sorry, it's just that I have a flight to catch in a few hours
and I just wanna make sure that you're all caught up.
So, your recording session is the day after Christmas...
11:00 AM, I know.
I'll be workin' all weekend.
Oh, and tour's selling out.
Lou has added dates to Frankfurt, Berlin and Shanghai.
Sounds good.
And... your mom called earlier.
Yeah. All right. I'll call her back.
I sent in your dinner order.
Room service should be here in 20 minutes.
And, friendly reminder, I won't be back till after Christmas.
Which means, I won't be reachable.
So you will be on your own, all weekend.
Ah, Gail will be around.
Well, actually, Gail will be spending her Christmas
in Jackson Hole.
Oh. Well, you know what, I could use the weekend alone.
I'll finish writin' my song.
I'll be fine, I promise.
Okay.
Oh, Liz?
A bonus.
I couldn't get by without you.
Please send my love to your family.
Thank you so much.
I really appreciate it.
Oh, I will see you in the studio Tuesday morning.
Bright and early.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas.
Yeah.
Hello, Momma.
Hey, Merry Christmas, sweetheart.
How was the concert?
Oh yeah, they applauded at all the right places.
Well, that's a good thing.
You cooking your famous brisket and pink applesauce right now?
Uh-huh.
Mmm.
I can almost taste it from here.
Well, you better get yourself on down here and have some.
You looked too thin on the TV.
I need to feed ya.
Oh. Momma, I want to.
Especially this Christmas.
I know how important it is.
I'm really trying to make it work.
Trying isn't doing, son.
It's just...
Look, I got a lot on my plate.
What's the matter, Lee?
You're... you're usually so full of energy after a concert.
I'm fine, momma. Really.
It's time for you to come home, son.
I know.
This summer for sure.
No.
Summer isn't Christmas.
Now, I want you to think about that.
All right?
I will.
I love you, Momma.
I'll talk to you soon.
I love you too.
Bye.
Oh, don't start.
Summer? Really?
I'm so sorry, dress rehearsal ran late.
Oh my gosh, I'm so happy to see you.
I can't believe you're here.
Of course I'm not going to miss my best friend
as the Sugarplum Fairy, you kidding?
Well, understudy.
It's a big deal, Soph.
Yeah, it kinda is, isn't it?
Yeah.
How did it go with Lionel this afternoon?
It's uh, it's a long story.
I'll get the hot chocolate.
Extra marshmallows.
That bad?
You need to be here.
You think I don't wanna come home?
I don't know, maybe you do, maybe you don't.
You haven't been home since Dad's funeral.
Well, look. I've been performing.
Is that the only reason?
I gotta be in the studio next week.
Look, I have to finish writin' this Christmas song.
Well, finish it here, Lee.
Look, we both know dealing with feelings
isn't exactly your strong suit.
Only this year, opting out isn't an option.
Mom won't say it, but...
She's counting on you.
You know, nobody talks to me the way you do.
Yeah, well, how many older sisters you got?
Just one, thankfully.
Text me your flight info, okay?
I'll pick you up at the airport.
All right.
He said he'll only approve the loan
if we add more jam-making machines.
and then we have to lay off half the workers.
So, I don't know,
we have to make a decision by the first of January.
What are you gonna do?
I don't know.
I hate going home with bad news to my Dad, and...
I guess I'm just hoping for a Christmas miracle.
Well, what about your candy bar idea?
Well, Lionel didn't go for that.
How can anyone eat one of your candy bars and say no?
He didn't even let me get that far,
he cut me off before my slideshow.
So... you have some left over?
So many. They're all yours.
Thank you.
What does your dad think?
Uh, I haven't told him yet.
Why not?
I was just kinda hoping that I was just gonna sell Lionel
on the idea before I told him.
Yeah.
Well, catch me up at home.
Did you meet anyone at that holiday party you went to?
Nobody interesting.
You didn't go?
Well, you're in New York, you want me to go alone?
How are you gonna meet Mr. Right
when you don't put yourself out there?
I dunno, I'm so bad at this.
And that's why I have just the thing.
Merry Christmas, open it.
I'm scared.
Okay, let's see.
Okay.
And this is supposed to help me... how?
It's a conversation starter.
Oh, I kinda feel like it's more of a conversation ender,
to be honest.
Trust me.
This is in honour of your first ever performance
in the Big Apple.
Oh my gosh, this is beautiful.
Cara, these are supposed to be gag gifts.
I know, but this is a big deal,
and I'm really, really proud of you.
Aww...
Well, now I feel like I need to exchange this.
No, I love it.
Thank you.
You're so welcome, thank you.
Thank you, Merry Christmas.
You lost the remote?
Funny.
I can change my flight if you need anything.
I... It's not a problem, I can stay.
No, no.
You know what?
Have an amazing Christmas, Liz.
You deserve it.
Thank you.
It's an airline ticket, how hard can it be?
...As you know we've been tracking this storm,
and it is looking like a massive storm front
is heading straight into the heartland of America.
This is going to be a big storm and a long trip home.
Excuse me.
Sorry to bother you.
Oh, no problem at all.
What are you...
Okay.
Merry Christmas.
Okay... Thank you, Hector.
Um... but you're... you're actually in my seat.
Sorry, I just went to buy this magazine
and this man was watching my stuff, so.
Oh.
I uh, didn't even notice.
It's okay.
I'll move.
Thanks.
Oh, here.
Yeah.
Ohh!
Oh, uh.
I'm so, so sorry.
... you forgot your coffee.
Uh...
I'll... I'll buy you a new shirt.
It's fine.
Dry cleaning, I...
Nope. It's okay, it's all right, uh... accidents happen.
No worries.
Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please.
Many flights are cancelled due to the weather.
Please check your time for an update.
Hi, can you tell me what's happening with the flight?
The storm's headed into the Tulsa area.
The flight's been cancelled.
Cancelled?
What's your name?
Um, it's Cara Hill.
I can rebook you onto a Chicago-bound flight.
They're still flying to Tulsa from there.
Departures at 1:00.
There's a restaurant next to gate 6 upstairs
so just make sure you listen for the announcements.
And don't worry, Ms. Hill.
We're going to get you to where you need to be.
Saved you a seat.
It's the least I could do since I stole yours.
Thank you.
Well, I had to change into something.
Now, I feel really guilty.
No, it's pretty comfortable, actually.
Okay.
And it makes fun noises.
It does.
One check or two?
Two.
One.
Please, let me get this.
Thank you.
Um, may I please have the peppermint latte
with the gingerbread plate, please.
Coffee. Black.
That's it.
Thank you.
Thanks.
What?
I just feel like I... I've met you before.
I know you or something.
Do we know each other?
I don't think so.
Are you in a band?
Uh, yeah, yeah, sorta.
What kind of music?
Is it rock music? Or...
Country.
Oh.
What?
You don't like country?
I mean, it's not my favourite...
Okay.
What's your favourite music?
Uh, I guess I'm kind of like a show tunes girl.
Show tunes.
Yes.
Ahh. Okay.
You uh, you headed home for Christmas?
Yeah, yeah. Oklahoma.
Well, me too.
No way.
Yeah, born and raised.
Did you ever ride the dry gulch train at Christmas?
Only every Christmas since I was five.
Really?
Yeah, I grew up in Coweta.
I'm from Rocky Point.
What?
Yeah, did you go to Wagon Ridge?
Ah, Broken Eagle.
Ohh. We competed in choir.
Yeah, you guys were great.
State champions. That must be it.
Must be what?
How I know you.
Yeah. Yeah, maybe.
Thank you.
Mmm. Want one?
Probably shouldn't.
Sorry, I've gotta take this.
Yeah, yeah, no problem.
Thanks.
You should live dangerously.
Hey, Dad.
There you are.
I been trying to reach ya.
Have you boarded yet?
No, I've been re-routed,
but I'll be there in time for the party, I just, um...
I'm sorry that I can't help.
It's fine, sweetheart.
Alan and Jim are comin'.
Hang on a second.
I'll ask them to help me set up.
I'll give them their bonuses now,
and everybody else at the party.
Well, maybe we should wait on that.
It's Christmas.
Our teams worked hard for it.
Not their fault we've had a tough year.
What are you up to now?
I am makin' peach jelly from some peaches
I pulled out of the cold storage.
Try nutmeg.
Well, my thought exactly.
Just a pinch, though.
Well, I'm sure everyone will love it.
Say, listen, uh....
How did it go with Lionel?
Uh, well he didn't... turn us down.
Great, great.
I guess he knows as good as anybody
what Stonebridge means around here.
Good for you, Sweetheart.
I knew you could get through to him.
But dad, there... there was one stipulation.
Oh, hold on.
That's, uh, Alan and Jim just getting here now.
You can tell me the details later.
Just get home.
And great job, sweetheart.
You made your Mom proud.
Love ya.
Come on in!
Dad?
Everything okay?
Yeah, it's just a work thing.
But I think I'm... I'm, I think I'm actually gonna
go down to the gate and find somewhere to plug my phone in.
I need power.
Thank you for this.
What about your cookies?
Oh, it's all yours.
Merry Christmas.
Is that your guitar?
Yeah.
Do you know any Christmas songs?
I do.
Hmm.
"Jingle Bells"?
Yep.
"Santa's Comin to Town"?
Yep.
"Here Comes Santa Claus"?
Yep.
"Silent Night".
I know a lot of Christmas songs.
Cool.
Well, you know what?
You should probably go find your mom.
We don't want her to worry about you.
I'm here alone, but Cerise is showing me when to board.
She had to go help another person, so...
um, she told me not to go far.
Cool.
Ahh.
My grandma makes the best hot cider and spiced cookies.
And, she says there's so much to do in Chicago.
We're gonna go sledding, and ice skating,
and we're even gonna go see the big Christmas tree.
Wow.
Wanna play?
Uh, well here's the thing...
...Alex.
Alex.
I, uh, I got a lot of work to do,
so I don't really have time to, uh...
Is she your friend?
Uh, well...
Hi.
Come on, come over here.
Hello.
Hey.
We meet again.
Yeah.
Sorry, I didn't want you to think I was running away
from you earlier.
I'm Cara by the way.
I'm, uh, Heath... uh, Leland.
You don't seem very sure about that.
People call me Lee.
I'm Alex.
Hi Alex.
I like your sweater.
Oh, yes. Thank you.
Wanna sit?
We were just about to play cards.
Sure.
You guys travelling together?
Oh, uh, no.
We... we just met.
Oh, you're just making friends everywhere, huh?
Yeah.
Who's this?
That's Dasher.
He's coming with me to my grandma's.
Are you going to your grandma's for Christmas?
Mm-hmm.
I was supposed to fly with my dad, but...
he couldn't get leave.
Oh.
Is your dad a soldier?
I tell you what.
What's your game?
Omaha?
Or Texas Hold'em?
Go fish.
All right.
Okay.
Do you have any sevens?
I don't know how,
but I think I'm gettin' beat by the reindeer.
Flight 37 to Chicago, first class
and folks travelling with small children may now board Gate 2.
Alex, come on. That's you.
All right. That's us, buddy.
Are you coming?
Uh, no, I have to wait a little bit longer.
Oh, well, see you on the plane.
Bye.
Hey.
Welcome aboard, Alex.
See you on the plane, Lee.
Okay.
It's not your time yet, sir.
Oh, you called first class.
And you're coach.
Coach?
Oh.
Well, I can pay the difference.
The flight's full.
Think you could do me a favour?
I'm sorry, there's really nothing I can do.
Ooh, ah, before you go.
No... yeah?
Could I get an autograph?
Just make it out to Cerise.
Cerise.
Thank you.
Back again?
Oh, it was a little miscommunication.
Hmm.
Here.
Ah, what's this?
Candy bars.
Oh.
I will dig right into that.
Those are good.
Did you make these?
Mm-hmm.
Can I have some more?
Un-huh.
All right.
Hey, do you know what?
My dad was in the army too,
and he used to have to be away at Christmas sometimes.
He was a helicopter pilot, and he gave me...
He gave me these.
Wanna hold onto it for me?
Really?
Yeah.
I think he'd like you to have it.
There you go.
Look who got his wings.
Um, is there any update on the connection to Tulsa?
I just heard.
The storm took a turn due north.
No one's getting out of Chicago tonight.
Come on, Alex.
Let's go find your Grandma.
She's going to be so excited to see you.
Well, I guess this is... goodbye.
Again.
Goodbye again.
Yeah.
Alright.
Yep, trying to find a private jet.
For today?
Uh-huh.
From where?
O'Hare.
I'm sorry, all flights are grounded.
Hello? Hello?
Hey, Lee.
Oh.
Hey Lex.
Grandma, this is the man I was telling you about.
His dad was in the army too.
You must be grandma.
It's so nice of you and your girlfriend to take care of him.
Oh, well, we're not together.
Oh, I... I... I just assumed.
Sorry to hear about your flight.
Do you have a place to stay?
Not yet.
Well, that won't do.
My husband used to own a historic hotel.
I can call if you like.
Yeah.
Yeah, that'd be great.
Woah.
Oh.
Okay, now I officially know that you're following me.
No, you are the one that's following me.
How could I be following you when I got here first?
I gotta take this.
You coming down for dinner?
Um, I hadn't decided yet.
Well, can I talk you into it?
Maybe.
Gail. Hi.
How's skiing?
Yeah. Nah, no, I didn't end up staying in New York after all.
I'm going home.
Yeah.
Well, you can't put this one on me, sis.
The airport is closed.
Likely story.
Oh, I couldn't sleep last night.
I was thinking about dad.
Missing him.
Yeah, it's not gonna be the same without him.
How's mom handling things?
Oh, she's keeping busy.
Making us all something special.
She won't say what it is.
Yeah.
Hey, buddy. Are you okay?
Yeah. Yeah.
I should get back to work, though.
Look, I'm gonna make it home, all right?
Even if I have to charter a sleigh.
All right, sis.
Charter a sleigh...
How did the peach jelly go over?
Oh, it's a hit.
And so are those bonuses.
Dad, I wish you'd waited to give those out.
Is something wrong?
No, I just...
I wish I'd been there to watch everyone's reactions
when they opened them, that's all.
Enjoy the party, Dad.
Um, I'll see you for Christmas Eve dinner.
I'm gonna bake you the ham, Mom's recipe.
I love you, sweetie.
I love you too, Dad.
Mr. Sawyer, well... it's a real pleasure.
What'll it be?
A hot buttered rum?
It's a Christmas specialty.
Better make it two.
I just couldn't bring myself to tell him, you know?
Not in the middle of the party.
Maybe you were right to hold off.
I mean, there's plenty of other bankers
that will finance your idea, right?
You don't know, Lionel's been our banker forever,
so if he doesn't do it, I don't know who would.
You just have to be willing to take a risk.
Hey Soph, um, can I call you back?
I kind of have plans.
With who?
You're stranded in a strange city.
I dunno, just this guy I met on the plane.
You met a guy?
On a plane? And you talked to him?
And you agreed to drinks?
Yeah, I'm taking risks.
It was the sweater, wasn't it?
Can't wait for the new album.
Yeah.
Makes both of us.
Thanks.
I'm hanging up now.
Uh, sorry to interrupt.
Oh no, do... you weren't.
She is just busy getting ready for Christmas.
Yeah. My family too.
So much to do I feel like right before.
Yeah.
Well, I figured hot buttered rum is a good substitute
for hot cocoa,
especially on a stormy night two days before Christmas.
I will take some. Thank you.
Yeah.
I have not had a moment to relax like this in a long time.
Me either.
I am so excited!
Okay, we need to go over there right now.
That uh, that call today at the airport.
Yeah, that was some disappointing news
I had to give to someone.
They didn't take it well?
I haven't done it yet.
Yeah.
Um, I'll figure something out.
I'm sure you will.
How can you be so sure?
You know, just call it a hunch.
So, were those really your father's wings?
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know, somehow I just...
I feel like my dad would've wanted Lex to have 'em.
He would've wanted?
He passed last year.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
My mom actually passed recently.
I'm sorry.
Christmas just doesn't feel like Christmas with him gone.
Is it?...
It is.
Do you know them?
Uh...
Heath, we didn't know you were in town.
Are you here for a concert?
Nope, nope.
Just, uh, just passin' through.
Can we get autographs?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Yeah.
I can't believe I'm getting Heath Sawyer's autograph.
I saw all your concerts, I have all your albums...
There you go.
Will you sing us just one song?
Uh, um...
Come on, it's... it's Christmas.
Don't you want to hear something, too?
Sure.
Absolutely.
Why not?
I am so excited.

They met on a layover in a blizzard...
What time is it?
Earlier there than it is here?
I couldn't sleep a wink last night.
Katarina came down with a stomach flu,
and they asked me to perform her solo.
You're gonna do great, Soph.
Well, what about you?
How'd it go?
Well, he's unavailable.
He's married.
Uh, no, worse. He's Heath Sawyer.
The country singer?
Are you sure?
Pretty sure.
He performed a song at the bar last night to, like,
a ton of adoring fans.
Okay, the whole time I'm in New York,
I don't meet one single famous person.
You fly out to our hometown
and you meet the hottest guy on the planet?
Do you like him?
Is he nice?
Does it matter?
It could.
He's Heath Sawyer.
No, are you kidding me?
What now?
Looks like the airport's still shut down today.
What am I gonna do, Soph?
How am I gonna get home?

to see the Joffrey perform Swan Lake in Chicago,
and we had to travel all the way up?

Uh, you seen her come down yet?
She checked out about 20 minutes ago.
Everything okay?
It's not even 7:00 AM.
Does that mean the airport's open?
Shut down till tomorrow.
You've got to be kiddin' me.
So, you'll be staying on?
Not if I can help it.
Liz, hey.
Uh, check your messages.
I'm stuck in Chicago and the airport is closed.
You have got to find me a way to get to Tulsa.
Sorry, did I overhear you say Tulsa?
All aboard.
There we go.
Cara?
What are you doing here?
I know what it looks like, but I swear I'm not following ya.
Sure, you're not.
No, I mean, I just...
You're Heath Sawyer.
They said there was an 8:00 AM bus leaving to Tulsa,
at the hotel.
Can, can I sit down?
Please?
Sure.
All right.

Yeah. I was a wrangler and she was a schoolteacher.
Oh, neither of us knew how to play a lick,

Yeah, pretty soon we took the act on the road and

It's a great little town.
Uh, people come from all over the country
just to celebrate Christmas here.
Uh, we're going to go check the setup.
Okay.
So, can we start over?
Hi.
I'm Heath Sawyer.
You can call me Lee.
Cara.
It's very nice to meet you.
Better?
Much, yeah, you didn't spill coffee on me this time, so...
Ah, forgot how much I missed this.
What?
Just bein' out, doin' something normal.
You know, no pictures, no autographs, just...
it's almost like the closer we get to home,
the more like myself I feel.
We're ready.
Uh, let's see.
Wagon Ridge school choir?
Oh, no, no. I'm not a professional.
Well, that's exactly what I told Henry.
Singing is free.
It's true, Cara.
And each voice has its own uniqueness.
Okay.
Come along! Come along!
Ha, ha!
It's gonna be fun!
And now, one more song to close us out.
Thank you, thank you.
Take it away, Heath.

Yes, thank you, thank you, thank you all, thanks.
A special thanks to our special guests Heath and Cara.
We'll be back a little bit later, us two,
you'll have to put up with that, okay?
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
We'll be back later this afternoon.
I wanna thank you guys so much.
It's been a... it's been a real treat.
Yeah.
Well, I guess you'd better get on the bus.
You've got a long journey ahead of ya.
Uh, unless...
Unless what?
Our organizer, Fiona.
Oh, Fiona, yeah.
Yeah.
She's got the car rental agency.
That's right.
She could shave, oh, what, a couple hours off your trip.
Oh, really?
Well... let, let me go hunt her down.
Perfect.
Why don't you go grab a bite to eat while you wait.
Good idea.
I'll grab the hot chocolate.
I can't thank you enough!
I mean, I never thought I'd be on stage with...
anyway, thank you.
Bye.
So you know, Rocky Point is pretty close to Coweta.
I could always use a co-pilot.
Oh thanks.
Um, I think I'm just gonna stick with the bus.
You sure?
Yeah.
I should get going, but, um...
Thank you.
Yeah.
That was fun.
It was.
Well, won't it be great to get home again for Christmas?
All right. Bye.
Ah, yes.
Oh.
Ah... where's your friend?
Oh, I'm... I'm travelling solo.
Oh, that's a shame.
You two made such a lovely duo.
There you go.
Merry Christmas.
Are you here for the annual snowflake party?
Uh, well, that...
that's a new one on me.
Well, it's kind of a Christmas Eve tradition around here.
It's the last chance to do it, now that it's Christmas Eve.
See, folks, they make a snowflake and put a wish on.
Then we hang 'em on all the windows.
It's quite a sight.
Well...
We'll do it.
Guess a, uh, car would be faster.
Yeah folks, let's get you a table here.
Come on right over here.
Now we got paper, and markers, and scissors.
And if you need a hand with anything,
Miss Maple over here, she's our resident specialist.
Um, are y'all serving food?
Well, it wouldn't be Christmas Eve without my roast duck.
Famous in five counties.
Well then, we'll have two servings,
all the fixings please.
Done deal.
Do you need to get that?
No.
You're one of those super annoying people
that's just good at everything, aren't ya?
My mom and I used to do a lot of crafts together.
That's kind of how we passed the winter months, so...
I just don't really have anyone to do it with recently.
Oh. I'll fill in.
Just show me what to do.
Okay.
It's pretty easy.
So you fold it six times.
Six times, okay.
One...
And just make sure the edges are lined up.
Two?
Here, let me, let me.
Let me just...
Start cutting.
Yeah...
Don't look at mine.
What are you doing over there?
I'm cuttin'.
Do you not know how to use scissors?
Of course I've used scissors before.
Let's see what you got.
Don't laugh.
No?
No, it's nice.
It's a snowflake.
It's a good try.
All right.
I... I'm sure yours is much better than mine.
Wow.
It's all right.
All right.
You first.
Don't look!
Why not?
Because then it won't come true.
I'm pretty sure that's not how it works.
That's exactly how wishes work.
They hang 'em up on the wall, so...
"A Christmas Miracle."
So I don't have to lay off half of my employees.
Your disappointing news.
It would be the first ever layoff in Stonebridge Jams' history.
Stonebridge Jams? That's you?
Pfft.
You're famous!
You should talk.
No, no, I'm serious.
That is my mother's favourite.
Uh, y'all have been around forever.
Yeah, my great-grandmother
started it during the depression.
Yeah, now we're the biggest employer in the area.
Wow.
But, you know how it goes.
Somebody is always going to come along
and try and make things cheaper.
Which is why you want to make the candy.
I tried to sell the bank on the idea, but...
they didn't buy it.
Petty.
No. Don't... don't ever take no for an answer.
If you believe in something so much,
you gotta make others believe in it too.
You make your Christmas miracle.
Okay, your turn.
What's your wish?
A song.
Yeah, yeah, I used to write one a week.
But, uh, lately, I've been in kind of a slump.
You don't sound like somebody who's lacking inspiration.
Yeah, I haven't written a song since my dad passed.
What kind of song are you trying to write?
A Christmas song.
Hmm.
Yeah. Yeah.
One that turns strangers into friends and friends into family.
Doesn't get much better than that.
What do you say we put our snowflakes up?
All right.
Yeah, it's a one of a kind.
Huh?
Hey.
Ooh.
Look at that.
That looks amazing.
Oh, well.
You really are Heath Sawyer.
Well, I got your car all ready.
Fiona, you have been such a huge help.
Thank you.
Well, it's my pleasure.
Ooh, I have a little gift for you both.
It can get chilly out there.
Thank you.
I've been your biggest fan from the start,
so you just keep making good music.
That's how you can thank me.
Fiona, for you, I will do just that.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you.
I think green is a great colour for you.
Well, today's not the day that we are gonna find out.
It's really comin' down, huh?
I don't know how much longer we should be on these roads.
You know, we just need to find a motel.
Doesn't look like there's much of that around here.
Keep your eyes peeled.
I'm sorry, Cara.
This is all my fault.
We are going to make it home for Christmas.
How?
With a little bit of luck.
Luck?
Our planes were grounded.
We were stuck on a bus.
Now we're out in the middle of nowhere on a stretch
in a blizzard.
We have not had that great of luck.
I know it seems like everything has gone wrong, but...
I kind of feel like some things have gone right.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
♪ ... we wish you a Merry Christmas ♪
♪ And a happy new year. ♪
♪ Good tidings we bring for you and your kin. ♪
Is this you?
No, no, no, I wanna hear. I wanna listen.
You don't even like country music.
Well, I like you.
I mean, I... I really like your voice, so...
Joplin.
Have you been here?
My friend lives here. Nathan Johnson.
I... I haven't thought about that guy in years.
He was the best bass player I knew growing up.
Yeah, he met a girl in Joplin,
and she gave him an ultimatum, music or her.
He chose her and he never looked back.
I wonder if he'd help us out with a place to stay tonight.
Let's see here...
Hi, this is Nate. Leave a message.
Nate.
Hey, buddy, it's your old pal, Lee.
Listen, man I'm in your neck of the woods
and actually cruising through with a friend.
Was wondering if you had a place for us to crash for the night.
I hope you're well, buddy.
Call me when you get this.
This blizzard's getting real bad.
We should find someplace to pull over.
Is that a church?
Should we go inside and check it out?
Why not?

Hey, Momma.
Aha-ha, there you are.
What are you doing now?
Making mulled wine.
You guys open up your secret Santa gifts yet?
Oh, of course not.
We're waiting for you.
This storm's getting pretty bad, Momma.
I might miss Christmas.
Oh.
Oh, well.. well, let me know, okay?
All right.
Bye, Momma.
Oh, don't worry about it.
If you're not home tomorrow, we'll just celebrate Christmas
on the 26th.
I know, but it's not the same.
We'll try and save you some of this ham.
Hey.
What's that I'm hearing?
Sounds like angels.
It's a choir.
I'm in a church and they're practicing.
That song was your mom's favourite.
I'll bet she's listening in heaven.
Yeah, I hope so.
Travel safe, sweetheart.
All right. Love you, Dad.
Bye.

Your star?
It was always my dad's job to put on the star,
'cause he was the tallest.
Huh.
But, uh, my mom asked me to do it this year.
So, she saved it for me.
I thought you only decided to go home yesterday.
Well, my mom always says you gotta have faith.
I guess she has a lot of faith in me.
Hmm.
When my dad got sick, I was in Japan.
By the time I realized about it,
it was too late.
I... I never got to say goodbye, or, uh...
or tell him that I loved him.
Well, yesterday I saw you give something very precious away
to somebody who needed it more than you.
I think your father knew where your heart was.
I've been running from it for a long time.
Never made it hurt any less.
My family would never say it, but...
I know I let 'em down when they needed me the most.
My mom would have loved this...
I know she wanted me to take care of my dad and...
the business, and...
all she ever said was "I trust you."
She was right to.
I know you talked about needing faith, but...
sometimes it's so hard to have faith
when it just feels like all there is, is emptiness.
Well, I guess that's when you need it the most.
How does your family usually spend Christmas Eve?
My mom and I would stay up all night baking pies.
We would always wait up and open our first gift
right at the stroke of midnight.
We did that too.
Really?
Yeah.
Well, I guess we're gonna miss out on that one this year.
I have an idea.
Thank you.
Merry Christmas.
Hope Nate calls back soon.
It's really starting to come down out there.
I'm just gonna go and say it right now.
You are in for one epic surprise.
You okay?
No, I'm just tired.
Heath?
Yeah?
What were your, um, your plans
before you decided to go home for Christmas?
Just stick close to the city, work on my music.
Why?
Oh.
Our Christmas prayers are answered.
Hey, Nate.
Yeah, it's old Heath.
Hey.
I know it's early yet, but uh,
Donna's asleep so we should be quiet.
I gotta say, Lee.
I figured a big star like you would be travelling
with more of an entourage.
Yeah, yeah, uh, well, it's kind of a long story.
I hope we're not imposing on Christmas Eve.
Oh, Donna will probably think I'm Santa
for bringing home Lee.
...She hasn't been feeling so good lately.
Well, tonight, you're a lifesaver, so thank you.
Christmas, it's the time for giving, right?
Uh, Cara, you'll be staying in the guest room.
It's the top of the stairs, first door on the right.
Bed's all made up, bathroom's at the end of the hall.
Lee, living room couch, if that's okay.
Hey. Just like old times.
All right.
Oh, hey.
This is Donna, by the way.
And my girls, Nell and Mandy.
So cute.
Yeah, come on, I'll show you around.
All right. After you.
Thank you.
Here you go.
Well, here it is.
Uh-oh.
For Santa.
Take one.
All right.
Daddy!
Hey, monkey.
I thought I told you to get to bed.
This here's Lee, Daddy's old friend.
You must be Nell.
How come you were going to eat eating Santa's cookies?
Uh, well. I'm helping out Santa tonight.
Kind of like an elf.
Elves are little, with pointy ears.
Well, I am more of a... well, an elf helper.
See?
Where's your bag of gifts?
Santa's gonna bring those later.
But he asked me to deliver the extra ones
to the super special kids.
What would you like?
For my mom to get better.
You know what I like to do when I wanna feel better?
Sing a song.
You could sing her a song.
That could be nice.
But, I have an idea, if it's okay with your dad.
How about I teach you a song,
and we sing it to your mother together?
Really?
Sounds good to me.
Awesome.
I'm going to get Mandy.
She can sing too.
Okay.
It's hard for them to get to sleep on Christmas Eve.
They're too excited.
Well, looks like I won't be getting back out there tonight.
Well, we could watch 'em.
Uh, you sure?
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.
Oh, thanks, Lee.
I mean, this blizzard, it's a problem for most people.
But for my family, it's a triple-time godsend.
Thanks.
Okay.
Kids?
♪ The stars in the sky looked down where he lay ♪
♪ The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay. ♪
Are you one of Santa's helpers too?
She sure is.
And that is why she is gonna sing with us.
Isn't it a little late for singing?
We're learning a song for our Mom,
for Christmas.
It was Lee's idea.
Oh, it was Lee's idea?
Well, then I guess I have no choice, right?
All right. So.
Aren't you guys ready?
♪ Away in a manger... ♪
♪ No crib for a bed ♪
♪ The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head ♪
Yay!
That was so good.
All right.
All right, so you guys know all your parts?
Yes.
Okay, now it's bedtime, right?
But what did this elf bring?
Uh, what does your Momma like?
Dessert.
Oh, dessert.
Well, let's go to the kitchen and see what we can find.
Okay, you ready?
Here we go...
I'll take this.
Okay, who's gonna... You're gonna roll it out?
That's perfect.
Okay, so what we have to do is,
we have to make it in a perfect circle so it's the crust, right?
Okay, ready.
Here I will take this.
Nice.
So what can I do to help?
Um, I think we got it.
Oh.
Okay, now we're gonna put it on here.
Who wants to lift it up?
Me.
Good job.
We'll do it together.
One, two, three!
Ahh!
Oh, nice work.
Now push it all the way down.
Yeah. Good job.
Get it nice and flat like that.
Yes.
That is perfect.
Okay, all right.
Now what are we going to put in the pie?
Ha!
Ready for that?
Mmm.
This is Cara's Stonebridge jam.
Ready?
Oh, woah, that's so cool.
Look at that.
You know what, I think we need some more.
All right, number two, goin' in.
Here we go.
You wanna spread it now? Your turn, okay.
That's perfect.
What about the topping?
Uh... Oh, you know what, I think I have something.
Okay, take one of these...
-You got it? You ready? -Yummy.
Break it up into little pieces.
Just like that, yeah.
These look so good.
You wanna try a little bite?
Yeah.
That's a good idea.
Mom's going to love this.
Okay, it's perfect.
Thank you.
And... Ta-da.
In it goes.
Perfect.
Now you know how to make a pie, you can do it anytime you want.
Okay. It's bedtime.
Aww.
Now Cara's right.
You don't want to be too tired to sing for your mom.
Un-huh.
Will you put out a piece of candy for Santa?
And Rudolph too?
Can you?
-I'll do it. -Okay.
You got it.
Off to bed.
Goodnight, girls.
Goodnight.
Night.
Is everything all right?
Huh?
Just seems like something's bothering you.
Oh, just anxious about getting home, I guess.
Well, look, I wanted to thank you.
For what?
For all of this.
The advice, the pie.
The company.
Couldn't have done it without ya.
Oh, I think you would've been just fine on your own.
Maybe.
But I'm sure glad I didn't have to be.
What about your fiancée?
Fiancée?
Gail Fairweather?
It's not funny.
I thought we were...
Thought we were what?
Thought we were being honest with each other.
Gail is just a friend.
But the magazine said...
Was wrong.
So, you guys never dated?
She was there for me when my dad passed away.
Yeah.
People make assumptions,
but she's like a little sister to me.
Yeah.
To be honest, she's not really my type.
Oh.
You have a type?
All right.
Let's just say she would never sing with a bunch of strangers
in a small town in the middle of nowhere.
She would never cut paper snowflakes,
and I know one thing for sure.
What?
She would never ever, ever be caught dead
wearing that reindeer sweater.
I like that reindeer sweater.
I agree.
Oh, presents.
Huh?
It's... it's officially Christmas.
We have to exchange one present.
It's tradition.
Yeah.
Come on.
All right.
This is a country act you might actually like.
Merry Christmas.
Okay...
Oh!
The Roamers!
I cannot believe you found this.
I told you they were famous.
Um, that's for you.
Merry Christmas.
Oh.
My dad has one that he loves and he always brings it out
at Christmas, so... I don't even know if you play, but...
Okay, so you definitely play.
I had one of these growing up.
Thank you.
It's perfect.
Ooh.
The pies.
Oh.
That looks good.
Not bad for an improvised topping, huh?
Who knows?
Maybe you started a new Christmas tradition.
That's not a bad idea.
Where are you going?
It's Christmas.
I'm gonna go start my own miracle.
Hello.
Hey, Soph.
Um, I'm sorry I'm calling you so late.
Do you have any of those candy bars left?
Some, why?
Can you do me a huge favour?
Time to get up, Mom! It's Christmas!
Christmas!
Merry Christmas.
Okay, you go ahead.
Come on.
What's all this?
I got a special gift for you this Christmas.
Come on.
Lee?
Hey, Donna.
Hi.
I... I don't understand.
Well, Nate really took care of us last night.
Oh, this is my friend, Cara Hill.
Hi Mrs. Johnson, so nice to meet you.
You have such a wonderful family.
Well, that I know, but...
um, please, we don't do it formal here.
You can just call me Donna.
Mom, sit down.
Mom, Mom, sit down.
Okay.
We have a gift for you.
Okay.
All right.
Now, you guys ready?
Did you know about this?
Mmmm, yeah.

I already cut a slice for everyone.
Wow.
You did this?
What did you do?
I put the jam in.
I made the crust.
Wow!
It looks wonderful,
and it smells so good I can almost taste the air.
Oh, this is fantastic.
Mm, the topping!
Mmm.
Whatever it is, is absolutely divine.
Well that is Cara's candy.
Well, I need to know where to get it next year.
For next year's pie.
Will you come visit us again?
Next year.
Promise, please?
We will try.
We will.
Yaaay!
Storm cleared.
Oh.
Should be a safer ride.
Yeah.
Hey, I gotta say thank you, guys.
I haven't seen her that happy in a long time.
Aw.
Well, it was such a special Christmas for us, too.
Yeah, yeah. We'll do it again real soon.
Ah, you know where to find me.
Cara...
Thank you.
Great to meet you.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas, Nate.
All right.
Well, have a safe trip.
Thank you.

Well, thank you for the ride.
You're welcome.
Yeah.
Guess, um, you should probably be heading back,
you probably have family expecting you.
Yeah, yeah... I guess... guess I should.
Well, good luck with your business.
Remember what I said, don't take no for an answer.
Oh, yeah.
And, um, I hope you find your song.
I think I will.
It's funny how coming home
brings you back where you belong.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Uh, I should probably...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Uh, Lee, um.
Do you want to come in for a cup of cider?
It's my mom's famous recipe.
Uh... maybe warm up before you head back out?
Yeah, yeah I'd like that.
Cool.
Wow.
It feels like home.
Yeah.
Well, I'll go warm up the cider,
and you can just hang out here by the fire.
Sure.
Dad, hi.
Hi, oh, Merry Christmas.
You made it.
Of course.
Yeah.
Um, I wanted to introduce you to someone.
Heath Sawyer.
Does everybody know who you are?
Please.
Call me Lee.
I've seen you on TV.
Sweetheart, you didn't tell me you know Heath Sawyer.
Oh, we go way back.
Oh yeah. Two whole days.
Well, I was hoping to get caught up on your trip,
but, uh, we could save that for later.
Um...
Yeah, Dad.
So, I wanted to talk to you about that,
um, so we did get the loan in New York.
But there are some strings attached,
um, that I tried to tell you about.
I just didn't... want to ruin Christmas.
What strings?
Well, Lionel said we had to add more machines
and that would replace half of our workers.
That's never gonna happen.
I know, that's how I feel, but that's the...
that's the only offer.
I'll call him.
Dad, you can't.
This... Don't call him.
I have an idea though, um,
for a new product that I think could be really amazing.
Candy bars.
We could make them out of the dried fruits,
and the nuts, and the honey, just like Mom used to make.
Candy bars?
Yeah.
I really think that it could be something special.
We're barely squeaking by now.
We can't afford the risk of something new.
I know, but Dad, we can't afford not to.
Maybe I could help.
Uh, I got plenty of money.
I wouldn't mind backing Cara's business if the bank won't.
Well, thanks, but, uh, we're doing just fine.
We've always gotten along.
We don't run up debt that we may not be able to pay back.
I don't care about the money.
Besides, I don't think you'll have to.
I mean, it'll take off.
Heath, no.
I got faith.
It's too bad we couldn't have met
under better circumstances, Lee.
If you'll both, um, excuse me.
Dad.
I'm sorry, Cara.
I thought he would agree.
Heath, you said I could do this on my own,
and then you offer to give me money?
It looks like you're just expecting this to fail.
I didn't mean it that way.
Well, that's what he heard.
I thought you believed in me.
I do.
You know what, I think that you should just go.
I know that you mean well, but it was stupid to think
that any of this was ever going to work.
Cara.
Please Heath, just go.
Dad?
Your candies.
I sent a copy to Lionel.
I wish you would have talked to me first.
Well, maybe I should have,
but I just did what I thought was right.
This business means the world to me, Dad.
I would do anything to save it.
I think this is what Mom would have wanted.
Snowball fight!
Hey guys.
Uncle Lee! Uncle Lee!
Oh!
Hey!
Oh, you guys got big.
Woah.
I missed y'all.
Where's Grandma?
She's inside.
Okay.
Oh, son.
Momma.
Finally. Oh...
I've missed you, Momma.
I've missed you too.
Lee! You made it!
Look at you!
Oh, my goodness!
Come on in, get your coat off.
Sit by the fire.
Your clothes are all snowy and wet.
Thank you so much.
You gonna eat those onions?
I'll eat them.
Excuse me, did you do this?
Hey...
Why is this on my plate?
Penny for your thoughts?
I cannot believe I almost missed this.
I know.
I know it's been tough...
losing your dad.
But it just means
that we all have to pull each other a little closer.
Yeah.
I have something for you.
In fact, I have something for all of you, but...
but I wanted to do it when we're all together.
First, to my family.
Merry Christmas.
Mom.
Merry Christmas.
Cheers.
These are the presents Mom's been working on all year.
Ooh, look at that.
And, this is for Gwen.
And Lee.
Ah, thank you.
This is lovely.
Mom...
Thank you, Momma.
Hey, hey, where are you going?
There's something I have to do.
I'll be back though real soon.
But...
Her name's Cara.
We travelled the country together.
Ahh.
So, you like her?
More than like her.
But I think I might have screwed this one up.
You know, Dad once told me that it's what you do
after you lose everything that defines who you are.
Just say how you feel.
Don't be shy.
Speak from your heart.
You always understand me, Momma.
Yeah.
Your mother was the one that had us branch out into nut butters.
It was a risk back then, too,
but we got another 30 good years out of the business.
You take after her, you know.
I'm sorry for being so stubborn.
If you think the candy bars will help, then...
let's try it.
Really?
Really.
I'd bet on you any day.
It's Lionel.
Hello?
Guess what I'm eating?
I believe this one's called "Rudolph's Raspberry Ripple."
You got my proposal?
I sure did.
Your friend Sophie just dropped it off.
Little chatty, to say the least.
But I gotta be honest with you, Cara.
These are the best things I've ever tasted.
The holiday themes?
Brilliant.
That's the marketing hook it needs.
That's my mom's recipe.
That's what she used to feed me when I was a kid.
See, that's gonna be the best part of the story.
Everyone loves a little piece of home, right?
Well, listen.
I can't promise you anything,
but I'm gonna kick this upstairs.
Really?
You have my word.
Merry Christmas, Cara.
Thank you.
He's gonna show it to his bosses!
Oh my goodness.
Oh, good for you, sweetheart.
This is crazy.
Yeah.
I'll be right back.
Hey.
Can I come in?
It'll only take a minute.
So, I know that I overstepped my boundaries.
I just, I wanted to help you the way that you helped me.
I do believe in you, Cara.
It's impossible not to.
You're unlike anybody I've ever met.
You've brought me home, in more ways than one.
You certainly have a way with words.
Does that mean you forgive me?
Mmm, it's a start.
So, it's still Christmas.
Mm-hmm.
You got any plans?
No.
Do you like pecan pie?
I love pecan pie.
So, this is the place.
Oh, Momma.
This is Cara.
Hi.
Oh, welcome.
Oh, thank you.
Yeah.
My son is very taken with you.
And he has excellent taste.
He gets it from me.
Momma.
I have to agree.
She's my girl, after all.
Oh.
This is my dad, Bob.
Oh, what a pleasure.
Lee said these were your favourites.
Thank you.
This is Stacey.
You can tell she's my older sister,
because she is so much smarter than me.
That's right, yeah.
You must be Cara.
Yeah.
Well, let's get you and your dad fed.
Is there anything you don't eat?
No, we... no, we like it all.
Oh, good, good.
She's lovely.
Yeah.
Oh.
Oh. I better take this.
Yeah.
Okay everyone, dessert!
I hope you're still hungry.
Hey, Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas?
I figured it's the least Merry Christmas.
I just got all your messages.
It sounds like an actual nightmare.
No, no, everything's fine.
I made it home, guided by a Christmas angel.
There you go.
Do you want me to reschedule a return flight?
I mean, you're due back in the studio tomorrow at 1:00.
You know what?
Cancel that, and everything else till after New Year's.
I'm gonna stay home for a little while.
Really?
Huh.
Well, what about the new song?
When are you gonna write it?
I think I already have.
