1
00:00:22,376 --> 00:00:25,585
Today is December 19th, Marcus.

2
00:00:25,668 --> 00:00:27,418
Go ahead.

3
00:00:29,002 --> 00:00:30,460
What is that?

4
00:00:30,543 --> 00:00:32,002
Let me see.

5
00:00:32,083 --> 00:00:34,002
That red sparkly paint
you wanted.

6
00:00:34,084 --> 00:00:36,334
I can't wait to see
what you do with this.

7
00:00:37,752 --> 00:00:39,168
So it's six days
before Christmas.

8
00:00:39,251 --> 00:00:40,293
You know what that means?

9
00:00:41,626 --> 00:00:43,376
I'll get the aprons,
you get the bowls.

10
00:00:43,460 --> 00:00:44,460
Come on.

11
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,960
Okay, Major Tom
is ready for lift-off.

12
00:00:50,793 --> 00:00:52,293
What do you think?

13
00:00:53,752 --> 00:00:54,668
Well, it's not how they look.

14
00:00:54,752 --> 00:00:56,209
It's how they taste.

15
00:00:56,293 --> 00:00:57,293
Mm!

16
00:00:57,376 --> 00:00:58,752
Hey, sweetie!
How was piano lessons?

17
00:00:58,835 --> 00:01:00,585
Good.

18
00:01:00,668 --> 00:01:01,543
Actually...

19
00:01:01,626 --> 00:01:02,918
Mr. Harrison asked

20
00:01:03,002 --> 00:01:04,376
if there was a chance
we'd be home before the 23rd.

21
00:01:04,460 --> 00:01:06,752
A slot opened up
in the Holiday Recital,

22
00:01:06,835 --> 00:01:08,626
and he wants to give it to me.

23
00:01:08,710 --> 00:01:10,209
Oh, I'm sorry, Maya.

24
00:01:10,293 --> 00:01:11,043
We're going to be
in Orchardsville

25
00:01:11,126 --> 00:01:12,334
through Christmas.

26
00:01:12,418 --> 00:01:15,960
But, hey, that is so cool
that he asked you.

27
00:01:16,043 --> 00:01:17,251
You must have
really impressed him.

28
00:01:17,334 --> 00:01:19,376
Well, I've been working on

29
00:01:19,460 --> 00:01:20,960
an arrangement

30
00:01:21,043 --> 00:01:22,543
of "It Came Upon
The Midnight Clear"

31
00:01:22,626 --> 00:01:23,960
It's an advanced piece,

32
00:01:24,043 --> 00:01:26,668
but Mr. Harrison said
I was ready.

33
00:01:26,752 --> 00:01:28,251
We should celebrate.

34
00:01:28,334 --> 00:01:30,043
Grab a piping bag!

35
00:01:30,126 --> 00:01:31,126
What are we making?

36
00:01:31,209 --> 00:01:32,918
Gingerbread mailboxes?

37
00:01:33,002 --> 00:01:35,209
Excuse me,
these are astronauts,

38
00:01:35,293 --> 00:01:36,084
thank you very much.

39
00:01:36,168 --> 00:01:37,084
That was my next guess.

40
00:01:37,168 --> 00:01:38,002
Uh-huh.

41
00:01:38,084 --> 00:01:40,043
We made them for Marcus.

42
00:01:40,126 --> 00:01:43,293
But we made these...

43
00:01:43,376 --> 00:01:45,209
for you.

44
00:01:49,002 --> 00:01:50,585
Thanks, Mom.

45
00:01:51,460 --> 00:01:52,918
Ah!

46
00:01:53,002 --> 00:01:53,835
Marcus, it's time
for your reading.

47
00:01:53,918 --> 00:01:55,334
We've gotta get you cleaned up.

48
00:01:55,418 --> 00:01:57,752
Let's go, sweetie, come on.

49
00:02:06,460 --> 00:02:09,460
Did you see
they have horse stables?

50
00:02:09,543 --> 00:02:11,293
Marcus doesn't ride horses.

51
00:02:12,710 --> 00:02:16,043
Well, maybe it's time
for him to try.

52
00:02:16,126 --> 00:02:17,668
He might enjoy it.

53
00:02:17,752 --> 00:02:19,543
You know, I sure am glad
you're coming.

54
00:02:19,626 --> 00:02:22,002
I don't think I could do this
on my own.

55
00:02:22,084 --> 00:02:23,626
I thought Rick
was meeting you there?

56
00:02:23,710 --> 00:02:25,543
Rick...

57
00:02:26,918 --> 00:02:29,293
Rick has a way of being
a million miles away

58
00:02:29,376 --> 00:02:30,877
even when he's standing
right next to you.

59
00:02:32,251 --> 00:02:34,002
Anyway, I don't even know
what I was thinking

60
00:02:34,084 --> 00:02:35,668
doing this so close
to Christmas...

61
00:02:36,793 --> 00:02:37,877
Why did you?

62
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,752
Because he was so insistent.

63
00:02:39,835 --> 00:02:40,877
You know how he does,

64
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,793
swoops in
when it's convenient for him.

65
00:02:44,209 --> 00:02:46,918
Mom, I'm just tired
of reliving the same argument,

66
00:02:47,002 --> 00:02:49,543
over and over.

67
00:02:51,334 --> 00:02:52,877
Marcus is 18.

68
00:02:54,084 --> 00:02:55,543
It's always hard

69
00:02:55,626 --> 00:02:58,918
to watch your little ones
fly away,

70
00:02:59,002 --> 00:03:03,877
but he's gonna need his parents
to give him that nudge.

71
00:03:05,626 --> 00:03:08,002
Mom, it's different
with Marcus.

72
00:03:08,084 --> 00:03:09,251
With his autism,

73
00:03:09,334 --> 00:03:12,668
he depends on structure
and consistency,

74
00:03:12,752 --> 00:03:16,668
waking up to familiar faces,
doing familiar things.

75
00:03:18,209 --> 00:03:20,418
Besides, we've tried
programs like this before,

76
00:03:20,501 --> 00:03:22,835
and they just haven't
worked out.

77
00:03:22,918 --> 00:03:25,460
I just don't think he's ready
for this type of change.

78
00:03:27,043 --> 00:03:30,168
He's not ready...

79
00:03:30,251 --> 00:03:31,835
or you're not ready?

80
00:03:39,752 --> 00:03:41,960
All right, big boy,

81
00:03:42,043 --> 00:03:43,002
time to turn in.

82
00:03:43,084 --> 00:03:44,293
We've got a big day tomorrow.

83
00:04:06,543 --> 00:04:08,334
Good night, sweetheart.

84
00:04:08,418 --> 00:04:11,293
I love you
to the moon and back.

85
00:04:19,543 --> 00:04:20,500
Okay.

86
00:04:39,460 --> 00:04:40,710
Shouldn't we be
getting on the road

87
00:04:40,793 --> 00:04:42,752
if we're planning on
getting there by 4:00?

88
00:04:42,835 --> 00:04:44,002
Well, I mean,

89
00:04:44,084 --> 00:04:45,084
Marcus was so excited

90
00:04:45,168 --> 00:04:46,960
to try out
his new colored pencils,

91
00:04:47,043 --> 00:04:48,500
and I'm sure it'll be fine

92
00:04:48,585 --> 00:04:50,418
if we get there
a little later than planned.

93
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:52,125
Besides, it'll give me a chance

94
00:04:52,209 --> 00:04:54,460
to do a few more
loads of laundry.

95
00:05:05,793 --> 00:05:08,918
I heard you were in charge
of the Christmas playlist

96
00:05:09,002 --> 00:05:09,835
for our trip.

97
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,418
I was hoping you might
indulge your grandma,

98
00:05:13,501 --> 00:05:15,084
and add a little Nat King Cole.

99
00:05:16,710 --> 00:05:17,500
Sure.

100
00:05:20,835 --> 00:05:23,250
I know you weren't expecting
to spend Christmas

101
00:05:23,334 --> 00:05:25,293
away from home, but...

102
00:05:25,375 --> 00:05:27,625
give it a chance.

103
00:05:27,710 --> 00:05:29,460
It could be fun.

104
00:05:32,835 --> 00:05:37,710
We couldn't have picked
a nicer day to travel.

105
00:05:38,877 --> 00:05:39,793
Your turn.

106
00:05:41,250 --> 00:05:43,835
I'm not really up
for the positivity game.

107
00:05:43,918 --> 00:05:46,835
Just one?

108
00:05:46,918 --> 00:05:49,375
For me?

109
00:05:50,668 --> 00:05:54,125
We get to spend Christmas
all together...

110
00:05:54,209 --> 00:05:57,125
That's good.

111
00:05:57,209 --> 00:05:59,084
That's really good.

112
00:06:01,043 --> 00:06:02,084
You win,

113
00:06:02,168 --> 00:06:04,543
this round
of the Positivity Game.

114
00:06:09,752 --> 00:06:11,877
We're going to be
leaving soon,

115
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,543
on a trip.

116
00:06:14,626 --> 00:06:17,960
It's going to take us
far away from home.

117
00:06:18,043 --> 00:06:21,585
Marcus, look at me.

118
00:06:21,668 --> 00:06:24,668
We're going on an adventure,

119
00:06:24,752 --> 00:06:27,084
just like the astronauts
in your book.

120
00:06:27,168 --> 00:06:29,752
There is nothing to worry about.

121
00:06:29,835 --> 00:06:32,084
I will be by your side
the whole time.

122
00:06:37,793 --> 00:06:39,625
Wow...

123
00:06:39,710 --> 00:06:42,375
That Christmas tree is amazing.

124
00:06:42,460 --> 00:06:45,418
I love what you're doing
with the sparkly red paint.

125
00:06:45,500 --> 00:06:47,960
It's beautiful.

126
00:06:56,125 --> 00:06:57,752
Mom...

127
00:06:57,835 --> 00:06:58,710
Hmm?

128
00:06:58,793 --> 00:06:59,543
Could you drive
a little faster?

129
00:06:59,625 --> 00:07:01,251
Cars are backed up behind us.

130
00:07:01,334 --> 00:07:02,835
I'm going the speed limit.

131
00:07:02,918 --> 00:07:04,918
You're driving ten miles
under the speed limit.

132
00:07:05,002 --> 00:07:06,293
I'm just being cautious.

133
00:07:08,710 --> 00:07:09,960
You're such
a road hazard, Mom.

134
00:07:14,835 --> 00:07:17,543
♪ Christmas Eve is coming soon ♪

135
00:07:17,625 --> 00:07:21,418

138
00:07:32,293 --> 00:07:34,084
Hey, guys,
there's a Christmas market

139
00:07:34,168 --> 00:07:35,334
in the middle of town.

140
00:07:35,418 --> 00:07:37,585
I thought it might be fun
to go down there.

141
00:07:37,668 --> 00:07:38,710
We can do some shopping.

142
00:07:38,793 --> 00:07:41,293
Won't you be busy
with Marcus's tour?

143
00:07:41,375 --> 00:07:43,293
Shouldn't take more
than an hour or two.

144
00:07:43,375 --> 00:07:45,543
We'll have the whole day
to explore.

145
00:07:45,625 --> 00:07:47,293
Why do you have two suitcases?

146
00:07:47,375 --> 00:07:48,877
This one is for clothes.

147
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,793
The other is for
a little Christmas cheer.

148
00:07:52,877 --> 00:07:53,918
Oh.

149
00:07:54,002 --> 00:07:55,043
Dad!

150
00:07:55,125 --> 00:07:57,125
Baby girl!

151
00:07:57,209 --> 00:07:59,793
Oh...

152
00:07:59,877 --> 00:08:01,126
Hey, buddy!

153
00:08:03,752 --> 00:08:04,710
Oh...

154
00:08:05,543 --> 00:08:07,376
Whoa, you need a shave.

155
00:08:07,460 --> 00:08:08,334
Look at that.

156
00:08:12,376 --> 00:08:14,376
Robin, Merry Christmas.

157
00:08:14,460 --> 00:08:15,877
Merry Christmas.

158
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,084
Hello, Lena.

159
00:08:17,168 --> 00:08:19,500
Hello.

160
00:08:21,084 --> 00:08:22,793
So what do you think?

161
00:08:22,877 --> 00:08:26,334
Pretty nice place
to ring in the holidays, huh?

162
00:08:26,418 --> 00:08:27,793
It's lovely.

163
00:08:27,877 --> 00:08:30,293
I made sure you got a room
with the best view, baby girl.

164
00:08:32,083 --> 00:08:34,208
Come on, Marcus.

165
00:08:39,668 --> 00:08:40,752
You're two hours late.

166
00:08:40,835 --> 00:08:42,918
You missed our appointment.

167
00:08:43,002 --> 00:08:45,002
You promised that you would
give this a chance.

168
00:08:45,083 --> 00:08:46,543
I'm here, Rick, aren't I?

169
00:08:46,626 --> 00:08:47,752
Lena, this is--

170
00:08:47,835 --> 00:08:49,710
Hope Hills
will still be open tomorrow.

171
00:08:49,793 --> 00:08:51,752
We can go decide then.

172
00:08:51,835 --> 00:08:53,877
It's not just our decision.

173
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,752
Hope Hills has to decide
if Marcus is a good candidate.

174
00:08:56,835 --> 00:08:59,418
Wait, they decide on Marcus?

175
00:08:59,501 --> 00:09:01,168
Yes.

176
00:09:01,251 --> 00:09:02,293
They've got to make sure

177
00:09:02,376 --> 00:09:03,710
that he's a good fit
for the program.

178
00:09:03,793 --> 00:09:06,585
This is their first opening
in two years.

179
00:09:09,251 --> 00:09:10,043
Here, I've got it--

180
00:09:10,126 --> 00:09:11,626
That's okay. I got it.

181
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:16,918
Yeah.

182
00:09:25,585 --> 00:09:27,209
Hello! Welcome!

183
00:09:27,293 --> 00:09:28,668
I'm Beth.

184
00:09:28,752 --> 00:09:30,209
Hi, Beth. I'm Lena,

185
00:09:30,293 --> 00:09:31,501
this is my mother, Robin,

186
00:09:31,585 --> 00:09:33,460
my daughter Maya,

187
00:09:33,543 --> 00:09:34,877
and this is my son, Marcus.

188
00:09:36,460 --> 00:09:38,083
And you've already met Rick.

189
00:09:39,626 --> 00:09:41,460
We are so happy
to have you all here.

190
00:09:41,543 --> 00:09:44,251
Did you get a chance
to see Hope Hills?

191
00:09:44,333 --> 00:09:46,918
Uh, tomorrow.

192
00:09:47,002 --> 00:09:48,333
We have two double rooms
for you.

193
00:09:48,418 --> 00:09:50,835
Rooms three and four,

194
00:09:50,918 --> 00:09:52,835
and we serve breakfast
between 8:00 and 9:00.

195
00:09:52,918 --> 00:09:54,251
Double-blooming Candy Canes?

196
00:09:54,333 --> 00:09:55,585
Yes.

197
00:09:55,668 --> 00:09:57,208
Nana owns a flower shop.

198
00:09:57,293 --> 00:09:59,002
Did.

199
00:09:59,083 --> 00:10:00,251
I'm retired,

200
00:10:00,334 --> 00:10:03,501
but amaryllis is my favorite
Christmas flower.

201
00:10:03,585 --> 00:10:05,251
I haven't done much

202
00:10:05,334 --> 00:10:09,418
in the way of
Christmas decorations this year.

203
00:10:09,501 --> 00:10:10,293
Time can get away from you.

204
00:10:11,668 --> 00:10:14,293
Well, this is all you need.

205
00:10:15,668 --> 00:10:17,918
Uh, I did just bake
some biscotti,

206
00:10:18,002 --> 00:10:19,376
in case you wanted a snack.

207
00:10:19,460 --> 00:10:20,501
You can find it in the kitchen.

208
00:10:20,585 --> 00:10:22,793
Please, just have
the run of the house,

209
00:10:22,877 --> 00:10:24,251
and let me help you
with your luggage?

210
00:10:24,334 --> 00:10:25,752
Oh, no, no, no.

211
00:10:25,835 --> 00:10:27,543
Thank you
for such a warm welcome.

212
00:10:27,626 --> 00:10:29,793
Yes, thank you so much.

213
00:10:29,877 --> 00:10:31,084
Thank you.

214
00:10:32,126 --> 00:10:34,460
You want to thank
Miss Beth, Marcus?

215
00:10:34,543 --> 00:10:35,877
You're so welcome.

216
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,626
Our house is your house, Marcus,

217
00:10:39,710 --> 00:10:41,376
and let us know if there's
anything you need, Maya.

218
00:10:41,460 --> 00:10:43,251
Thanks.

219
00:10:44,668 --> 00:10:47,083
All right,
let's get settled in.

220
00:10:58,543 --> 00:11:00,835
Special delivery
for a Mr. Marcus?

221
00:11:02,460 --> 00:11:03,918
They were selling them

222
00:11:04,002 --> 00:11:05,585
down at the Christmas market
downtown.

223
00:11:05,668 --> 00:11:07,126
That is really nice.

224
00:11:07,209 --> 00:11:08,043
Yeah.

225
00:11:08,126 --> 00:11:09,168
Yeah...

226
00:11:09,251 --> 00:11:11,501
Um, could use
some decorations, though.

227
00:11:11,585 --> 00:11:13,752
Say no more.

228
00:11:15,585 --> 00:11:18,460
A little Christmas cheer?

229
00:11:18,543 --> 00:11:20,376
I never travel
without my essentials.

230
00:11:21,626 --> 00:11:23,126
Catch!

231
00:11:23,209 --> 00:11:25,126
Ho ho! Okay!

232
00:11:26,710 --> 00:11:27,793
Come on, Marcus,

233
00:11:27,877 --> 00:11:28,960
let's see what we can do
with this tree.

234
00:11:29,043 --> 00:11:30,835
All right,

235
00:11:30,918 --> 00:11:34,043
I think we're going to need
some light there, uh, Grandma?

236
00:11:34,126 --> 00:11:36,043
You got lights?

237
00:11:36,126 --> 00:11:37,460
I guess not.

238
00:12:01,293 --> 00:12:03,251
Maya...

239
00:12:03,334 --> 00:12:04,334
What are you doing up?

240
00:12:04,418 --> 00:12:06,460
Nothing.

241
00:12:09,293 --> 00:12:11,293
Were you about to have cookies
at 11:00 at night?

242
00:12:11,376 --> 00:12:14,084
No.

243
00:12:14,168 --> 00:12:16,376
Well, I hope not.

244
00:12:16,460 --> 00:12:18,918
Not without milk.

245
00:12:26,501 --> 00:12:28,209
Oh, my gosh.

246
00:12:28,293 --> 00:12:31,209
What is that?

247
00:12:31,293 --> 00:12:32,418
That you're tasting?

248
00:12:32,501 --> 00:12:33,460
Mm-hmm.

249
00:12:33,543 --> 00:12:35,293
Anise...

250
00:12:35,376 --> 00:12:38,752
hazelnut...

251
00:12:38,835 --> 00:12:40,002
and orange.

252
00:12:40,083 --> 00:12:41,877
Mm.

253
00:12:42,710 --> 00:12:44,626
So good.

254
00:12:44,710 --> 00:12:46,168
Happiness.

255
00:12:47,501 --> 00:12:49,083
-These are crazy good.
-Mm...

256
00:12:52,168 --> 00:12:54,293
Maya...

257
00:12:54,376 --> 00:12:55,543
I know it was a lot to ask

258
00:12:55,626 --> 00:12:57,585
that you spend
your Christmas up here

259
00:12:57,668 --> 00:12:59,626
away from home,

260
00:12:59,710 --> 00:13:01,418
but...

261
00:13:01,501 --> 00:13:04,626
this is a once in a lifetime
opportunity for Marcus.

262
00:13:04,710 --> 00:13:07,084
I know.

263
00:13:07,168 --> 00:13:09,460
You are such a good sister.

264
00:13:14,668 --> 00:13:16,168
Oh.

265
00:13:16,251 --> 00:13:18,960
I was just coming down
to get a...

266
00:13:19,043 --> 00:13:20,293
glass of water.

267
00:13:21,251 --> 00:13:22,543
Mm-hmm.

268
00:13:23,793 --> 00:13:24,793
-Come on.
-Come here, Nana.

269
00:13:26,668 --> 00:13:28,334
They're so good.

270
00:13:28,418 --> 00:13:30,585
So good.

271
00:13:37,208 --> 00:13:39,251
All right, up.

272
00:13:39,333 --> 00:13:40,835
Good.

273
00:13:43,293 --> 00:13:44,376
There we go.

274
00:13:48,668 --> 00:13:49,501
Good.

275
00:13:50,543 --> 00:13:54,543
I know it's a little itchy,
but we're almost there.

276
00:13:59,251 --> 00:14:00,960
There.

277
00:14:01,043 --> 00:14:03,002
All right, rinse.

278
00:14:07,710 --> 00:14:10,543
Here's a hand towel.

279
00:14:13,710 --> 00:14:15,626
All right.

280
00:14:15,710 --> 00:14:17,251
Now for the grand finale.

281
00:14:18,793 --> 00:14:20,126
Let's do your aftershave,
my man.

282
00:14:22,168 --> 00:14:23,168
It's all right, it's all right.

283
00:14:23,251 --> 00:14:24,626
It'll cool down.

284
00:14:26,418 --> 00:14:27,501
There you go.

285
00:14:29,168 --> 00:14:31,626
You look like a million bucks,

286
00:14:31,710 --> 00:14:32,668
and you smell good.

287
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,543
I'm proud of you.

288
00:14:39,918 --> 00:14:41,543
All right.

289
00:14:56,626 --> 00:14:57,585
Looking sharp.

290
00:14:59,710 --> 00:15:01,002
Marcus.

291
00:15:01,084 --> 00:15:02,543
Marcus, hey.

292
00:15:02,626 --> 00:15:04,626
Remember what we do
when you meet people?

293
00:15:06,418 --> 00:15:07,334
Look me in the eye.

294
00:15:07,418 --> 00:15:09,501
Right here.

295
00:15:12,835 --> 00:15:14,209
Good job.

296
00:15:17,209 --> 00:15:18,752
I'm not sure about that tie.

297
00:15:18,835 --> 00:15:20,877
I think it suits him.

298
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:21,918
Found 'em.

299
00:15:22,002 --> 00:15:23,543
Bottom of his suitcase.

300
00:15:23,626 --> 00:15:25,543
Oh, thanks, Mom.

301
00:15:25,626 --> 00:15:26,626
Rick, I'm so glad you're here.

302
00:15:26,710 --> 00:15:28,418
How's everything?

303
00:15:28,501 --> 00:15:29,418
How's work?

304
00:15:29,501 --> 00:15:30,710
Work? It's good.

305
00:15:30,793 --> 00:15:31,877
Busy, but good.

306
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,585
Working on a new ad campaign.

307
00:15:33,668 --> 00:15:35,710
And how's Amanda?

308
00:15:37,251 --> 00:15:40,208
Uh, she's spending Christmas
with her sister up in Albany.

309
00:15:40,293 --> 00:15:41,960
Hmm.

310
00:15:42,918 --> 00:15:45,418
Oh, look, it's almost 10:00.

311
00:15:45,501 --> 00:15:46,333
Hey, Marcus,

312
00:15:46,418 --> 00:15:47,960
ready to knock their socks off?

313
00:15:52,793 --> 00:15:54,460
Good luck, baby.

314
00:15:57,418 --> 00:15:59,460
We're meeting Madelyn Quin,
the program director.

315
00:15:59,543 --> 00:16:01,043
She's very nice.

316
00:16:01,126 --> 00:16:01,918
You've spoken to her already?

317
00:16:02,002 --> 00:16:02,793
Just once, briefly.

318
00:16:02,877 --> 00:16:03,710
Oh.

319
00:16:05,334 --> 00:16:06,626
-It's okay.
-It's all right, buddy.

320
00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:08,293
It's all right.

321
00:16:11,043 --> 00:16:12,043
It's very nice
to meet you, Marcus.

322
00:16:12,126 --> 00:16:13,126
I'm Madelyn.

323
00:16:18,168 --> 00:16:20,626
Thanks again
for making time for us.

324
00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:21,585
Sorry about check-in.

325
00:16:21,668 --> 00:16:24,293
The day just got away from us.

326
00:16:24,376 --> 00:16:25,418
I understand.

327
00:16:25,501 --> 00:16:26,585
Things are always
a little unpredictable

328
00:16:26,668 --> 00:16:27,960
around the holidays.

329
00:16:28,043 --> 00:16:29,585
Shall we start the tour?

330
00:16:29,668 --> 00:16:30,501
Sounds good.

331
00:16:30,585 --> 00:16:31,501
Right this way.

332
00:17:12,709 --> 00:17:13,501
Sorry.

333
00:17:13,584 --> 00:17:15,293
Don't stop on my account.

334
00:17:15,376 --> 00:17:16,459
I'm Henry.

335
00:17:16,543 --> 00:17:18,208
Maya.

336
00:17:21,834 --> 00:17:23,752
You work here?

337
00:17:23,834 --> 00:17:25,208
Since I was 10, yeah.

338
00:17:25,293 --> 00:17:28,293
My mom runs the place.

339
00:17:28,376 --> 00:17:30,002
How long you been
playing piano for?

340
00:17:30,084 --> 00:17:32,002
Two years.

341
00:17:32,084 --> 00:17:33,418
My mom said

342
00:17:33,501 --> 00:17:35,960
everybody in the family's
got to have their own thing.

343
00:17:36,043 --> 00:17:37,626
I chose the piano.

344
00:17:39,043 --> 00:17:42,418
My brother, Marcus, has drawing

345
00:17:42,501 --> 00:17:43,877
and space travel.

346
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,168
Dad likes photography.

347
00:17:45,251 --> 00:17:47,418
What's your Mom's thing?

348
00:17:48,626 --> 00:17:50,460
Marcus.

349
00:17:53,626 --> 00:17:56,960
I've been home-schooling Marcus
for over 16 years.

350
00:17:57,043 --> 00:17:58,793
He's a really great reader.

351
00:17:58,877 --> 00:18:01,460
We haven't quite got
the verbalizing part down yet,

352
00:18:01,543 --> 00:18:03,877
but he invented
his own sign language.

353
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,793
It's called Marcush.

354
00:18:05,877 --> 00:18:08,501
We have built a database
of thousands of objects

355
00:18:08,585 --> 00:18:09,918
that he can access

356
00:18:10,002 --> 00:18:13,668
faster that I can say
"I want a gingerbread cookie."

357
00:18:14,835 --> 00:18:15,626
I love gingerbread, too.

358
00:18:17,126 --> 00:18:18,293
Here at Hope Hills,

359
00:18:18,376 --> 00:18:19,251
we make gingerbread houses
this time of year.

360
00:18:19,334 --> 00:18:22,668
Would you like to see?

361
00:18:26,002 --> 00:18:27,752
You can scroll through
if you like.

362
00:18:27,835 --> 00:18:30,168
That's a gingerbread forest.

363
00:18:42,710 --> 00:18:44,501
This is our art classroom.

364
00:18:44,585 --> 00:18:47,084
They're painting the backdrop
for our Christmas play.

365
00:18:47,168 --> 00:18:48,251
Wonderful.

366
00:18:48,334 --> 00:18:50,793
Maybe we make the bow
a little bigger,

367
00:18:50,877 --> 00:18:52,293
and add on some more colour.

368
00:18:52,376 --> 00:18:53,168
How about some orange?

369
00:18:53,251 --> 00:18:54,293
Yeah, okay.

370
00:18:54,376 --> 00:18:56,793
"Twas The Night
Before Christmas."

371
00:18:56,877 --> 00:18:58,585
How'd you know?

372
00:18:58,668 --> 00:19:01,668
Well, there's no fire
in the fireplace

373
00:19:01,752 --> 00:19:03,501
so Santa can
get down the chimney.

374
00:19:03,585 --> 00:19:06,877
Marcus has always loved
that story.

375
00:19:12,793 --> 00:19:14,752
Hey, buddy.

376
00:19:14,835 --> 00:19:16,293
Wow!

377
00:19:16,376 --> 00:19:17,877
Look at all these colors.

378
00:19:20,043 --> 00:19:22,251
Seems like Marcus
is ready to start.

379
00:19:36,460 --> 00:19:39,376
So, what do you think?

380
00:19:39,460 --> 00:19:41,960
Hmm, it clashes
with your outfit.

381
00:19:42,043 --> 00:19:44,376
Not for me,

382
00:19:44,460 --> 00:19:46,334
for our wishing wreaths.

383
00:19:46,418 --> 00:19:48,960
We're making wreaths?

384
00:19:49,043 --> 00:19:50,668
We make them every year.

385
00:19:50,752 --> 00:19:52,126
But we're away from home.

386
00:19:52,209 --> 00:19:54,209
The great thing
about traditions

387
00:19:54,293 --> 00:19:56,209
is you can bring them
wherever you go.

388
00:19:59,251 --> 00:20:01,209
I know Christmas is
different this year,

389
00:20:01,293 --> 00:20:05,168
but we can still
make it ours.

390
00:20:05,251 --> 00:20:06,710
What do you say?

391
00:20:09,376 --> 00:20:11,084
I like the red one.

392
00:20:11,168 --> 00:20:12,168
Excellent choice.

393
00:20:20,710 --> 00:20:22,793
Eye on the prize, come on,
you've got this.

394
00:20:24,835 --> 00:20:26,752
This is the dorm
where Marcus will be staying

395
00:20:26,835 --> 00:20:28,126
while he's with us.

396
00:20:28,209 --> 00:20:29,960
Oh, Marcus already
has a room at the guest center.

397
00:20:30,043 --> 00:20:32,209
During Marcus's
assessment period,

398
00:20:32,293 --> 00:20:34,002
we require
that he stay on site.

399
00:20:35,418 --> 00:20:38,043
Well, will we be able
to visit him?

400
00:20:38,126 --> 00:20:42,543
There's no contact with family
over the trial weekend.

401
00:20:42,626 --> 00:20:44,293
You mean, we're supposed
to leave Marcus here

402
00:20:44,376 --> 00:20:46,209
for the whole weekend?

403
00:20:46,293 --> 00:20:48,002
We find that
this is a necessary step

404
00:20:48,084 --> 00:20:49,752
in the evaluation process.

405
00:20:49,835 --> 00:20:50,877
We need to be sure

406
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,376
that Hope Hills
is a good fit for Marcus.

407
00:20:52,460 --> 00:20:54,460
Our students' well-being

408
00:20:54,543 --> 00:20:55,918
is our main priority.

409
00:20:58,168 --> 00:21:00,752
-Can you give us a moment?
-Mm-hmm.

410
00:21:05,043 --> 00:21:06,251
I did not agree to this.

411
00:21:06,334 --> 00:21:08,293
I know,

412
00:21:08,376 --> 00:21:10,251
but it's just down the road.

413
00:21:10,334 --> 00:21:11,752
It's in walking distance.

414
00:21:11,835 --> 00:21:12,710
It's Christmas, Rick.

415
00:21:12,793 --> 00:21:14,376
And this could be
the best gift

416
00:21:14,460 --> 00:21:16,334
we ever give Marcus.

417
00:21:30,752 --> 00:21:32,168
You ambushed me.

418
00:21:32,251 --> 00:21:33,251
No, no, no,

419
00:21:33,334 --> 00:21:34,334
I did not know anything

420
00:21:34,418 --> 00:21:36,126
about this parent-free
assessment time.

421
00:21:36,209 --> 00:21:37,418
I was just as surprised.

422
00:21:39,209 --> 00:21:40,585
But you've got to admit,

423
00:21:40,668 --> 00:21:43,084
this place is pretty impressive.

424
00:21:43,168 --> 00:21:44,418
All these students,

425
00:21:44,501 --> 00:21:46,084
they have to help in growing,
and harvesting,

426
00:21:46,168 --> 00:21:47,293
and preparing their own food.

427
00:21:47,376 --> 00:21:48,293
Madelyn told me
that they're preparing

428
00:21:48,376 --> 00:21:50,251
a whole Christmas dinner.

429
00:21:50,334 --> 00:21:52,168
Ham, sweet potatoes,
collard greens.

430
00:21:52,251 --> 00:21:53,501
Our son will starve there.

431
00:21:53,585 --> 00:21:55,002
Tell me, Rick,
when's the last time

432
00:21:55,084 --> 00:21:57,002
Marcus willingly
ate a vegetable?

433
00:21:57,084 --> 00:21:58,293
What's the harm in trying?

434
00:21:58,376 --> 00:22:00,168
You don't have to deal
with the meltdowns

435
00:22:00,251 --> 00:22:01,710
over dinner time.

436
00:22:01,793 --> 00:22:05,835
Why are you
so dead set against this?

437
00:22:07,334 --> 00:22:09,002
You never consider
my feelings.

438
00:22:09,084 --> 00:22:11,084
You're not the only one
that gets a vote here, Lena.

439
00:22:11,168 --> 00:22:12,293
Marcus is my son, too.

440
00:22:12,376 --> 00:22:13,710
I'm the one who's there.

441
00:22:13,793 --> 00:22:14,835
Every day.

442
00:22:14,918 --> 00:22:16,501
Look, that is so unfair.

443
00:22:16,585 --> 00:22:18,668
I work very hard to give Marcus
everything he needs.

444
00:22:18,752 --> 00:22:21,793
You have this pie in the sky
vision of who our son is,

445
00:22:21,877 --> 00:22:23,043
and what he can do,

446
00:22:23,126 --> 00:22:24,626
and I'm left to be the bad guy.

447
00:22:24,710 --> 00:22:27,710
Lena, you are not the bad guy.

448
00:22:27,793 --> 00:22:29,376
This is a chance for Marcus
to grow in ways

449
00:22:29,460 --> 00:22:30,418
that we can't even imagine.

450
00:22:30,501 --> 00:22:31,668
Ways that we can't give him.

451
00:22:31,752 --> 00:22:35,043
Are you saying
that I'm holding him back?

452
00:22:35,126 --> 00:22:37,710
No, no.

453
00:22:37,793 --> 00:22:41,293
No, I'm saying that right now
his world is...

454
00:22:41,376 --> 00:22:43,334
it's very small,

455
00:22:43,418 --> 00:22:44,418
and all I'm asking

456
00:22:44,501 --> 00:22:46,002
is that you give it
a chance to grow.

457
00:22:50,418 --> 00:22:51,585
One chance.

458
00:22:52,918 --> 00:22:54,501
Yeah.

459
00:22:54,585 --> 00:22:57,002
Can you gather up
his bedtime items, please?

460
00:22:57,084 --> 00:22:58,918
Yeah.

461
00:23:20,793 --> 00:23:23,334
I dropped off Marcus's
suitcase with Madelyn.

462
00:23:23,418 --> 00:23:25,084
So, what do we do now?

463
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,043
Are you hungry?

464
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,877
Yeah, let's get
something to eat.

465
00:23:38,334 --> 00:23:39,918
So, when do you
have to get back?

466
00:23:40,002 --> 00:23:41,209
I don't.

467
00:23:41,293 --> 00:23:43,626
I'm here for the week.

468
00:23:43,710 --> 00:23:46,585
You got a whole week off
from work?

469
00:23:46,668 --> 00:23:49,126
You're acting as if
I never take a vacation day.

470
00:23:53,376 --> 00:23:55,126
I'm working remotely.

471
00:23:59,418 --> 00:24:01,793
He really misses you
when you're not around.

472
00:24:05,501 --> 00:24:06,543
You know that
if it were up to me,

473
00:24:06,626 --> 00:24:08,334
I would always be around, Lena.

474
00:24:08,418 --> 00:24:10,585
But isn't it?

475
00:24:10,668 --> 00:24:12,960
Isn't that up to you?

476
00:24:13,043 --> 00:24:14,168
Hi, folks.

477
00:24:14,251 --> 00:24:15,418
I'm Kayla.

478
00:24:15,501 --> 00:24:17,084
Can I start you off
with some apple cider?

479
00:24:17,168 --> 00:24:18,251
It's our holiday special.

480
00:24:18,334 --> 00:24:19,251
Yeah, sure.

481
00:24:19,334 --> 00:24:20,501
Thanks, Kayla.

482
00:24:21,710 --> 00:24:23,626
Kayla, if you have it,

483
00:24:23,710 --> 00:24:27,209
she loves whipped cream
and cinnamon in her cider.

484
00:24:27,293 --> 00:24:28,334
Thanks.

485
00:24:28,418 --> 00:24:30,209
Sure.

486
00:24:33,209 --> 00:24:34,460
You remembered.

487
00:24:34,543 --> 00:24:36,293
I remember a lot of things.

488
00:24:37,918 --> 00:24:41,668

your favorite song.

489
00:24:41,752 --> 00:24:43,960

I understand.

516
00:25:49,251 --> 00:25:51,793

Well, you go ahead.

520
00:25:59,585 --> 00:26:02,084
I'm going to walk around,
do a little exploring.

You sure?

522
00:26:04,543 --> 00:26:06,334

Ms. Wilson?

527
00:26:40,501 --> 00:26:42,084
Is there something wrong?

528
00:26:44,251 --> 00:26:45,918
No, no, not wrong.

529
00:26:46,002 --> 00:26:48,710
It's just that everything
happened so quickly,

530
00:26:48,793 --> 00:26:51,877
and I just wanted to make sure
that Marcus had his lunch.

531
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,418
Marcus is at lunch right now.

532
00:26:54,501 --> 00:26:56,293
Our chef's an amazing cook.

533
00:26:56,376 --> 00:26:59,251
Well, do you think you could
maybe give this to him?

534
00:26:59,334 --> 00:27:01,710
He's a little particular
about what he eats.

535
00:27:01,793 --> 00:27:03,752
I know it's hard
being separated,

536
00:27:03,835 --> 00:27:06,084
but coming on campus
during assessment period

537
00:27:06,168 --> 00:27:07,084
is not allowed.

538
00:27:08,710 --> 00:27:11,835
How about I set up a Zoom call
for you and Marcus?

539
00:27:13,043 --> 00:27:14,835
Saturday morning. 9:00 a.m.?

540
00:27:16,168 --> 00:27:17,710
9:00 a.m..

541
00:27:17,793 --> 00:27:19,668
Enjoy your day, Ms. Wilson.

542
00:27:20,835 --> 00:27:22,501
See you Saturday...

543
00:27:22,585 --> 00:27:24,668
on Zoom.

544
00:27:30,793 --> 00:27:32,126
Thanks a lot.

545
00:28:03,877 --> 00:28:06,002
Need a lift?

546
00:28:06,084 --> 00:28:08,626
I thought you went
back to the guest house?

547
00:28:08,710 --> 00:28:10,002
I figured I'd wait for you

548
00:28:10,084 --> 00:28:11,918
to drop that sandwich off
at Hope Hills.

549
00:28:12,002 --> 00:28:13,460
You knew?

550
00:28:13,543 --> 00:28:16,126
We were married 15 years.

551
00:28:16,209 --> 00:28:17,918
You're an open book.

552
00:28:18,002 --> 00:28:19,251
Hop in.

553
00:28:19,334 --> 00:28:22,126
What makes you think
I'm not enjoying my stroll?

554
00:28:23,543 --> 00:28:24,877
Well, are you?

555
00:28:27,251 --> 00:28:30,501
Well, only because
I didn't wear my walking shoes.

556
00:28:52,293 --> 00:28:53,293
Are these orchids?

557
00:28:53,376 --> 00:28:54,251
Yes.

558
00:28:55,752 --> 00:28:57,543
My mother planted them
a few years ago.

559
00:28:57,626 --> 00:28:59,168
She thought they'd be
a nice way

560
00:28:59,251 --> 00:29:00,710
to greet the guests.

561
00:29:00,793 --> 00:29:02,918
They can be
very temperamental.

562
00:29:03,002 --> 00:29:06,543
She must have a green thumb.

563
00:29:06,626 --> 00:29:08,334
She did.

564
00:29:10,418 --> 00:29:12,168
Can I help you with anything?

565
00:29:12,251 --> 00:29:15,501
I was hoping you might have
some pruning shears.

566
00:29:15,585 --> 00:29:16,918
I should.

567
00:29:17,002 --> 00:29:19,418
My granddaughter and I
are making wreaths.

568
00:29:19,501 --> 00:29:21,585
Oh, how lovely.

569
00:29:21,668 --> 00:29:23,126
Would you like to join us?

570
00:29:23,209 --> 00:29:25,543
No, no, I wouldn't want
to impose.

571
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,918
The more the merrier.

572
00:29:31,376 --> 00:29:32,334
Okay.

573
00:29:36,251 --> 00:29:37,293
Now, Marcus, you don't
have to act in the play

574
00:29:37,376 --> 00:29:38,418
if you'd rather watch,

575
00:29:38,501 --> 00:29:40,918
but Blitzen went home
for the holidays,

576
00:29:41,002 --> 00:29:43,793
so if you want the job,

577
00:29:43,877 --> 00:29:45,835
the job is yours.

578
00:29:55,209 --> 00:29:56,376
Yes!

579
00:29:56,460 --> 00:29:57,626
Okay, you sit tight,

580
00:29:57,710 --> 00:29:58,543
and I'll introduce you
to the gang

581
00:29:58,626 --> 00:29:59,501
in a second, okay?

582
00:29:59,585 --> 00:30:01,835
You're gonna be great.

583
00:30:19,209 --> 00:30:21,334
Do you think Marcus
would like the red ribbon

584
00:30:21,418 --> 00:30:22,418
or the silver one?

585
00:30:22,501 --> 00:30:24,209
You're giving yours to Marcus?

586
00:30:24,293 --> 00:30:26,084
Mm-hmm.

587
00:30:26,168 --> 00:30:28,418
So these are actually
wishing wreaths.

588
00:30:28,501 --> 00:30:30,418
When I gift a wreath,

589
00:30:30,501 --> 00:30:34,084
I like to send a wish with it.

590
00:30:34,168 --> 00:30:37,668
I find something unique
to the recipient

591
00:30:37,752 --> 00:30:38,710
to finish it off.

592
00:30:38,793 --> 00:30:40,126
Something special.

593
00:30:40,209 --> 00:30:42,460
Like what?

594
00:30:42,543 --> 00:30:44,209
It can be anything.

595
00:30:44,293 --> 00:30:46,585
The magic of a wishing wreath

596
00:30:46,668 --> 00:30:48,168
is if your intention is clear,

597
00:30:48,251 --> 00:30:50,877
the inspiration
will come to you.

598
00:30:53,084 --> 00:30:55,877
What makes a gift precious
isn't the gift itself

599
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,209
but the meaning behind it.

600
00:30:59,877 --> 00:31:02,376
Do you have
any Christmas traditions?

601
00:31:03,835 --> 00:31:06,710
My mother and I
would make pomanders.

602
00:31:06,793 --> 00:31:08,793
What's a pomander?

603
00:31:08,877 --> 00:31:12,668
It's a decoration
made with oranges and cloves,

604
00:31:12,752 --> 00:31:14,918
and it fills the whole room

605
00:31:15,002 --> 00:31:16,668
with the most wonderful
fragrance.

606
00:31:16,752 --> 00:31:18,293
-Mm...
-Well, I'd love to learn,

607
00:31:18,376 --> 00:31:21,752
if you don't mind
indulging a pomander novice?

608
00:31:21,835 --> 00:31:24,126
Of course.

609
00:31:24,209 --> 00:31:26,877
I'll pick up some oranges
at the market.

610
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,543
Nana... help?

611
00:31:30,626 --> 00:31:32,585
Oh, baby...

612
00:31:41,626 --> 00:31:42,710
You guys ready?

613
00:31:42,793 --> 00:31:44,543
- Hey, Mom?
- Yeah?

614
00:31:44,626 --> 00:31:46,877
When we get there,
can we pick up some pizza?

615
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,835
We ain't starved you yet.

616
00:31:49,918 --> 00:31:52,543
You are a hungry child.

617
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,293
Let's try something new.

618
00:31:55,376 --> 00:31:58,084
Let's be adventurous.
Let's try something new.

619
00:31:58,168 --> 00:31:59,168
Hey...

620
00:31:59,251 --> 00:32:00,376
Where are you all off to?

621
00:32:00,460 --> 00:32:01,418
Dad...

622
00:32:01,501 --> 00:32:02,877
we're going
to the Christmas Market.

623
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,084
Do you want to come?

624
00:32:04,168 --> 00:32:05,126
Uh, you all go on.

625
00:32:05,209 --> 00:32:07,501
I got a lot of work
to finish up.

626
00:32:07,585 --> 00:32:08,585
It'll wait till morning.

627
00:32:08,668 --> 00:32:10,126
Please, Dad?

628
00:32:11,626 --> 00:32:14,376
There's gonna be funnel cake.

629
00:32:14,460 --> 00:32:16,084
Funnel cake?

630
00:32:17,835 --> 00:32:19,835
How can I say no
to funnel cake?

631
00:32:21,084 --> 00:32:23,460
All right, let's go.

632
00:32:25,501 --> 00:32:26,918
Whew!

633
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:31,126
Would you like some?

634
00:32:31,209 --> 00:32:33,293
Oh, no, that's okay, thanks.

635
00:32:34,501 --> 00:32:35,460
You sure?

636
00:32:35,543 --> 00:32:37,585
Well, I mean,
maybe just a little.

637
00:32:47,209 --> 00:32:48,460
We should take a picture.

638
00:32:50,543 --> 00:32:51,418
It's a good idea.

639
00:33:03,877 --> 00:33:04,960
These came out great.

640
00:33:05,043 --> 00:33:06,084
They did.

641
00:33:06,168 --> 00:33:07,501
Oh, my favorite is the last one.

642
00:33:09,710 --> 00:33:10,918
I did wear that Santa hat.

643
00:33:12,002 --> 00:33:13,585
I wore that Santa hat.

644
00:33:15,376 --> 00:33:16,168
Looks great.

645
00:33:16,251 --> 00:33:17,418
So, was Amanda okay

646
00:33:17,501 --> 00:33:20,626
with you guys
spending Christmas apart?

647
00:33:27,084 --> 00:33:29,918
Amanda and I, we're not
seeing each other anymore.

648
00:33:30,002 --> 00:33:31,793
Oh.

649
00:33:31,877 --> 00:33:32,918
I'm sorry.

650
00:33:33,002 --> 00:33:34,710
No, no, no, don't be.

651
00:33:34,793 --> 00:33:36,043
Um...

652
00:33:36,126 --> 00:33:38,293
there were no hard feelings.

653
00:33:38,376 --> 00:33:40,251
We both agreed
that it would be best

654
00:33:40,334 --> 00:33:42,626
if we went our separate ways
before things got too serious.

655
00:33:42,710 --> 00:33:44,002
Oh.

656
00:33:44,084 --> 00:33:45,460
You guys were together
over two years.

657
00:33:45,543 --> 00:33:46,752
I thought they were.

658
00:33:46,835 --> 00:33:48,835
Dad!

659
00:33:48,918 --> 00:33:50,376
Come try this.

660
00:34:01,126 --> 00:34:04,168
I see it.

661
00:34:04,251 --> 00:34:07,460
That's
a red-breasted nuthatch.

662
00:34:07,543 --> 00:34:10,251
It's a pretty one.

663
00:34:10,334 --> 00:34:11,876
Sometimes, he hangs upside down.

664
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,376
Nuthatch yoga?

665
00:34:17,585 --> 00:34:19,835
Teenagers.

666
00:34:21,334 --> 00:34:23,710
Hunched over her cell phone.

667
00:34:23,793 --> 00:34:26,376
She's scrolling.

668
00:34:26,460 --> 00:34:29,710
She's retreated to the safety
of her known world.

669
00:34:29,793 --> 00:34:31,460
Is she all right?

670
00:34:31,543 --> 00:34:33,793
I think it's just a little hard

671
00:34:33,876 --> 00:34:36,710
being away from home
at Christmas.

672
00:34:36,793 --> 00:34:39,376
She's having trouble
getting into the spirit.

673
00:34:39,460 --> 00:34:41,334
Hmm.

674
00:34:45,835 --> 00:34:47,209
Henry...

675
00:34:47,293 --> 00:34:48,876
Would you go to the tree farm

676
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,126
and get a Christmas tree for us?

677
00:34:50,209 --> 00:34:52,668
Mom, we don't have to have
a tree this year.

678
00:34:52,751 --> 00:34:54,710
I'd like to have one.

679
00:34:54,793 --> 00:34:55,835
For our guests.

680
00:34:55,918 --> 00:34:58,002
All right.

681
00:34:58,084 --> 00:35:00,043
One Douglas Fir,
coming right up.

682
00:35:02,626 --> 00:35:04,251
Oh, and, um, Henry,

683
00:35:04,334 --> 00:35:05,418
why don't you take Maya?

684
00:35:14,168 --> 00:35:16,877
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.

685
00:35:18,126 --> 00:35:19,668
So you have a sister?

686
00:35:19,752 --> 00:35:21,209
At Hope Hills Academy?

687
00:35:21,293 --> 00:35:22,084
Her name is Morgan.

688
00:35:22,168 --> 00:35:23,918
Does she like it?

689
00:35:24,002 --> 00:35:25,543
She likes everything.

690
00:35:26,668 --> 00:35:28,668
She's like
if sunshine was a person.

691
00:35:30,209 --> 00:35:33,126
So what kind of tree
are you looking for?

692
00:35:33,209 --> 00:35:34,877
The perfect one.

693
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:36,752
Of course.

694
00:35:36,835 --> 00:35:38,251
To be honest,

695
00:35:38,334 --> 00:35:40,334
I didn't think we were going
to put up a tree this year.

696
00:35:40,418 --> 00:35:41,877
Why not?

697
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:43,668
My grandma passed away
this May.

698
00:35:43,752 --> 00:35:46,710
It's my mom's
first Christmas without her.

699
00:35:46,793 --> 00:35:49,835
Christmas was always
her favorite time of year.

700
00:35:49,918 --> 00:35:51,376
She'd make it really special,

701
00:35:51,460 --> 00:35:53,126
so my mom wasn't really
feeling up to celebrating

702
00:35:53,209 --> 00:35:54,126
without her.

703
00:35:54,209 --> 00:35:56,585
What changed?

704
00:35:57,835 --> 00:35:59,418
I don't know,

705
00:35:59,501 --> 00:36:01,835
but we're going to find her
the best tree of the bunch.

706
00:36:03,084 --> 00:36:04,251
Hey, hey!

707
00:36:04,334 --> 00:36:05,918
-Hey!
-Hi, Henry!

708
00:36:06,002 --> 00:36:07,585
What are you guys doing here?

709
00:36:07,668 --> 00:36:09,710
Well, my grandma asked me
to get her a tree.

710
00:36:10,877 --> 00:36:11,960
Oh, this is Maya.

711
00:36:12,043 --> 00:36:14,168
-Maya, this is Emma and Misho.
-Hey!

712
00:36:14,251 --> 00:36:15,585
Maya's staying
at the guest house.

713
00:36:15,668 --> 00:36:18,543
Are you coming
to the tree lighting?

714
00:36:18,626 --> 00:36:19,585
I'm the Master of Ceremonies.

715
00:36:19,668 --> 00:36:20,543
I didn't realize

716
00:36:20,626 --> 00:36:21,835
there was
a Master of Ceremonies.

717
00:36:21,918 --> 00:36:22,835
There isn't.

718
00:36:22,918 --> 00:36:24,168
Mr. Walters just told him

719
00:36:24,251 --> 00:36:25,251
he gets to throw the switch
this year.

720
00:36:25,334 --> 00:36:26,251
It's the most important part.

721
00:36:26,334 --> 00:36:27,293
It deserves a title.

722
00:36:27,376 --> 00:36:29,293
Well, congrats, Man.

723
00:36:29,376 --> 00:36:30,626
Nice to see it hasn't
gone to your head.

724
00:36:32,084 --> 00:36:33,501
Oh, hey, you've gotta come.

725
00:36:33,585 --> 00:36:35,501
It starts at 10:00
in the square, after the dance.

726
00:36:35,585 --> 00:36:37,002
Uh, yeah,

727
00:36:37,084 --> 00:36:38,002
maybe.

728
00:36:38,084 --> 00:36:39,376
I'll check with my parents.

729
00:36:39,460 --> 00:36:40,501
Cool.

730
00:36:40,585 --> 00:36:41,334
Come on.

731
00:36:41,418 --> 00:36:42,668
-See you guys.
-See ya.

732
00:36:42,752 --> 00:36:43,668
See ya.

733
00:36:43,752 --> 00:36:44,668
You should.

734
00:36:47,752 --> 00:36:50,918
Hey, what about this one?

735
00:36:51,002 --> 00:36:52,918
-Yeah, that looks great.
-Yeah.

736
00:36:57,334 --> 00:36:59,084
Is it straight?

737
00:36:59,168 --> 00:37:00,168
A little to the left.

738
00:37:00,251 --> 00:37:02,084
Oh, it's beautiful!

739
00:37:02,168 --> 00:37:04,043
We're back,

740
00:37:04,126 --> 00:37:06,793
and I have just the thing
for that tree.

741
00:37:10,251 --> 00:37:11,543
Someone order candy canes?

742
00:37:11,626 --> 00:37:12,710
Mm-hmm.

743
00:37:14,251 --> 00:37:16,043
Let's decorate,
let's decorate, come on!

744
00:37:20,376 --> 00:37:22,710
Edible ornaments?

745
00:37:22,793 --> 00:37:24,710
Yeah, you make them
out of birdseed,

746
00:37:24,793 --> 00:37:26,877
so when Christmas is over,
you can hang them outside,

747
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:28,418
for the birds to enjoy.

748
00:37:28,501 --> 00:37:29,376
They're Morgan's favorite.

749
00:37:29,460 --> 00:37:31,460
We made them for years.

750
00:37:31,543 --> 00:37:34,126
I'll have to try that.

751
00:37:34,209 --> 00:37:36,460
Last one.

752
00:37:38,002 --> 00:37:38,960
Now for the scary part.

753
00:37:40,543 --> 00:37:42,002
One little bulb
refuses to play along,

754
00:37:42,084 --> 00:37:43,293
and it's a bust.

755
00:37:43,376 --> 00:37:45,251
I guess we should have
checked them out first

756
00:37:45,334 --> 00:37:47,501
before we put them on the tree.

757
00:37:47,585 --> 00:37:49,960
Yeah, that would have
been a plan.

758
00:37:51,668 --> 00:37:53,168
All right, come on,
let's light 'er up.

759
00:37:53,251 --> 00:37:54,084
Let's see what we got.

760
00:37:54,168 --> 00:37:55,835
Moment of truth.

761
00:37:56,793 --> 00:37:57,710
Three...

762
00:37:57,793 --> 00:37:58,585
two...

763
00:37:58,668 --> 00:37:59,752
one!

764
00:37:59,835 --> 00:38:00,585
Yeah!

765
00:38:03,084 --> 00:38:03,918
-Merry Christmas!
-It's great.

766
00:38:04,002 --> 00:38:06,084
Nice. Really nice.

767
00:38:06,168 --> 00:38:08,668
Now all we need
are some candy canes.

768
00:38:29,126 --> 00:38:31,668
You chose a beautiful tree.

769
00:38:35,877 --> 00:38:37,585
I found it in the attic.

770
00:38:40,752 --> 00:38:41,918
Your Nana's star.

771
00:38:42,002 --> 00:38:44,710
I thought you'd like
to put it on the tree.

772
00:38:48,626 --> 00:38:50,710
Look how carefully
she wrapped it.

773
00:38:52,084 --> 00:38:55,293
You know, this was passed down

774
00:38:55,376 --> 00:38:57,043
from her great grandmother,

775
00:38:57,126 --> 00:38:58,668
to her mother, to...

776
00:38:58,752 --> 00:39:01,460
To you.

777
00:39:08,251 --> 00:39:10,002
It's okay to miss her.

778
00:39:11,710 --> 00:39:13,877
I do, too.

779
00:39:20,835 --> 00:39:22,710
It was a lovely thought,
sweetheart.

780
00:39:23,835 --> 00:39:25,960
Maybe next year.

781
00:39:26,043 --> 00:39:28,126
Okay.

782
00:39:39,543 --> 00:39:41,418
You all right?

783
00:39:43,126 --> 00:39:44,668
Before we left,

784
00:39:44,752 --> 00:39:48,334
I promised him
I would not leave his side,

785
00:39:48,418 --> 00:39:51,168
the whole trip.

786
00:39:51,251 --> 00:39:52,501
I can't even imagine

787
00:39:52,585 --> 00:39:53,752
what must be going through
his head right now.

788
00:39:55,002 --> 00:39:56,877
It was time, Lena.

789
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:57,626
He's a young man.

790
00:39:57,710 --> 00:39:58,918
He needs independence.

791
00:40:00,251 --> 00:40:04,168
You don't see what I see.

792
00:40:04,251 --> 00:40:06,002
Every day,

793
00:40:06,084 --> 00:40:08,376
the looks.

794
00:40:09,835 --> 00:40:13,918
The whisperings
behind our backs.

795
00:40:14,002 --> 00:40:15,752
How am I supposed
to send him out into that?

796
00:40:18,293 --> 00:40:19,585
I'm just supposed to stand back

797
00:40:19,668 --> 00:40:23,960
and watch the world
to break his heart?

798
00:40:29,752 --> 00:40:31,835
I know it can be hard,

799
00:40:31,918 --> 00:40:33,168
putting your faith into people,

800
00:40:33,251 --> 00:40:34,918
when...

801
00:40:35,002 --> 00:40:37,626
whey they let you down.

802
00:40:40,668 --> 00:40:44,752
But if you give them a chance
to surprise you,

803
00:40:44,835 --> 00:40:45,918
they just might.

804
00:40:52,293 --> 00:40:53,793
Think about it, okay?

805
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,835
I think I'm getting
the hang of it.

806
00:41:14,334 --> 00:41:16,626
I know what you're doing,

807
00:41:16,710 --> 00:41:18,460
and it's very kind of you,

808
00:41:18,543 --> 00:41:20,918
but you're here
with your family.

809
00:41:21,002 --> 00:41:22,835
Don't you want to spend time
with them?

810
00:41:24,376 --> 00:41:26,293
At Christmas time,

811
00:41:26,376 --> 00:41:28,835
everyone's family.

812
00:41:36,835 --> 00:41:38,543
-Marcus, you're in a play?
-How about that.

813
00:41:38,626 --> 00:41:40,126
Marcus is our Blitzen.

814
00:41:40,209 --> 00:41:41,376
Will we get to see it?

815
00:41:41,460 --> 00:41:42,960
All families are invited
to the show

816
00:41:43,043 --> 00:41:46,543
on Christmas Eve.

817
00:41:51,501 --> 00:41:53,084
Sweetheart, are you okay?

818
00:41:58,835 --> 00:42:00,126
Looks like
you're making friends, buddy!

819
00:42:00,209 --> 00:42:01,585
Pretty dog.

820
00:42:01,668 --> 00:42:02,877
I'm afraid we have to go.

821
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:05,043
It's almost time
for his next class.

822
00:42:05,126 --> 00:42:07,168
Oh, okay, um...

823
00:42:07,251 --> 00:42:09,002
Well, we miss you, Marcus!

824
00:42:09,084 --> 00:42:10,460
-Bye!
-Bye, buddy.

825
00:42:10,543 --> 00:42:11,835
Can't wait to see you.

826
00:42:11,918 --> 00:42:12,668
Bye, dog!

827
00:42:12,752 --> 00:42:13,918
That's Lucy, Dad.

828
00:42:17,251 --> 00:42:18,418
He's in a play.

829
00:42:18,501 --> 00:42:19,835
Can you believe it?

830
00:42:19,918 --> 00:42:22,460
Well, he's got his leading man
good looks from me.

831
00:42:24,293 --> 00:42:25,251
He looked happy, though.

832
00:42:25,334 --> 00:42:26,209
Didn't he?

833
00:42:35,418 --> 00:42:36,710
Are these the pomanders?

834
00:42:36,793 --> 00:42:37,626
Yes!

835
00:42:37,710 --> 00:42:38,793
Would you like to make one?

836
00:42:41,543 --> 00:42:43,002
If you don't have any plans,

837
00:42:43,084 --> 00:42:45,668
I was hoping you could join us
for a family dinner tonight?

838
00:42:45,752 --> 00:42:47,002
Morgan will be here.

839
00:42:47,084 --> 00:42:48,835
Oh, well, we wouldn't
want to intrude.

840
00:42:48,918 --> 00:42:50,918
Oh, no, no,
it's no intrusion at all.

841
00:42:51,002 --> 00:42:52,043
We'd love for you
to meet Morgan,

842
00:42:52,126 --> 00:42:54,293
and she can tell you more
about Hope Hills.

843
00:42:55,668 --> 00:42:57,126
They let the students
meet with the parents

844
00:42:57,209 --> 00:42:58,251
any time?

845
00:42:58,334 --> 00:42:59,626
Morgan comes over once a week

846
00:42:59,710 --> 00:43:02,126
unless she has something
special going on.

847
00:43:02,209 --> 00:43:03,960
I think it's wonderful

848
00:43:04,043 --> 00:43:06,626
that the family gets to be
together on the weekends.

849
00:43:06,710 --> 00:43:08,835
The Guest House
was just in the planning stages

850
00:43:08,918 --> 00:43:10,710
when Morgan started
at Hope Hills.

851
00:43:10,793 --> 00:43:13,418
Mom and I jumped
at the chance to run it.

852
00:43:13,501 --> 00:43:14,626
It was the perfect solution

853
00:43:14,710 --> 00:43:16,835
to giving Morgan
the experiences she needs

854
00:43:16,918 --> 00:43:18,209
while keeping the family close.

855
00:43:19,460 --> 00:43:20,710
They just seem a little strict

856
00:43:20,793 --> 00:43:22,793
not letting us see Marcus
over the weekend.

857
00:43:23,835 --> 00:43:26,251
They do that with everybody.

858
00:43:26,334 --> 00:43:27,793
It's just the staff's way

859
00:43:27,877 --> 00:43:30,251
of making sure the candidate
is a good fit for the community.

860
00:43:31,835 --> 00:43:32,960
Well, we'd love to join you.

861
00:43:33,043 --> 00:43:34,084
Good,

862
00:43:34,168 --> 00:43:37,585
'cause I already said yes
for all of us.

863
00:43:43,710 --> 00:43:44,918
Check this out,

864
00:43:45,002 --> 00:43:47,418
we got a Christmas dance
going on tomorrow night.

865
00:43:47,501 --> 00:43:50,418
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.

866
00:43:50,501 --> 00:43:51,668
So, what do you say?

867
00:43:51,752 --> 00:43:53,251
You want to go to a dance?

868
00:43:53,334 --> 00:43:54,626
It might be fun.

869
00:43:54,710 --> 00:43:56,543
Step right up!

870
00:43:56,626 --> 00:43:57,668
Test your skill.

871
00:43:57,752 --> 00:43:59,293
Come on, man, what do you say?

872
00:43:59,376 --> 00:44:01,376
Three rings to win a prize.

873
00:44:01,460 --> 00:44:02,460
What do I say?

874
00:44:02,543 --> 00:44:03,376
I say let's toss 'em.

875
00:44:03,460 --> 00:44:04,293
Right on.

876
00:44:04,376 --> 00:44:05,168
Here you go.

877
00:44:05,251 --> 00:44:06,084
Thank you.

878
00:44:07,793 --> 00:44:08,585
I get three?

879
00:44:08,668 --> 00:44:09,460
Yes, sir, three.

880
00:44:09,543 --> 00:44:10,501
That's all I need.

881
00:44:10,585 --> 00:44:11,835
Okay.

882
00:44:11,918 --> 00:44:13,585
We'll see about that.

883
00:44:15,084 --> 00:44:16,043
All right.

884
00:44:18,543 --> 00:44:20,043
-Oh!
-Okay.

885
00:44:20,126 --> 00:44:20,835
Whoa-ho-ho!

886
00:44:20,918 --> 00:44:22,334
Okay.

887
00:44:22,418 --> 00:44:23,793
All right, let's see
what we got.

888
00:44:23,877 --> 00:44:26,877
Let's see what we got...

889
00:44:28,084 --> 00:44:29,126
All right.

890
00:44:29,209 --> 00:44:30,543
You are serious, huh?

891
00:44:30,626 --> 00:44:32,002
About Christmas ring toss?

892
00:44:32,084 --> 00:44:33,002
Yeah.

893
00:44:37,293 --> 00:44:38,877
Wow!

894
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:40,460
Awesome!

895
00:44:43,418 --> 00:44:44,501
Congratulations, guys.

896
00:44:44,585 --> 00:44:45,752
Pick your prize.

897
00:44:46,710 --> 00:44:48,002
I'll take this guy.

898
00:44:48,084 --> 00:44:50,168
Yeah, of course.

899
00:44:50,251 --> 00:44:52,002
Thanks.

900
00:44:53,293 --> 00:44:54,251
Thank you.

901
00:45:05,585 --> 00:45:07,460
Oh, Mom, feel how soft.

902
00:45:07,543 --> 00:45:10,334
Okay, so... I need...

903
00:45:10,418 --> 00:45:12,501
six medium and two large.

904
00:45:12,585 --> 00:45:14,793
Oh, Rick! I can't forget Rick.

905
00:45:14,877 --> 00:45:15,710
Um, make it three large.

906
00:45:15,793 --> 00:45:17,460
Thanks.

907
00:45:17,543 --> 00:45:19,376
There you go.

908
00:45:19,460 --> 00:45:20,877
-Thank you.
-Thanks.

909
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:21,960
You and Rick seem to be

910
00:45:22,043 --> 00:45:23,501
getting along together
quite well.

911
00:45:23,585 --> 00:45:25,752
Oh, it's been nice
having him around.

912
00:45:27,501 --> 00:45:28,877
It's not like that.

913
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:30,668
I didn't say anything.

914
00:45:30,752 --> 00:45:31,710
But you were thinking it.

915
00:45:34,084 --> 00:45:35,543
Aw, it's just seeing
you two together,

916
00:45:35,626 --> 00:45:37,835
it feels like old times.

917
00:45:40,043 --> 00:45:43,918
Rick is not seeing
Amanda anymore.

918
00:45:44,002 --> 00:45:45,668
How do you feel about that?

919
00:45:45,752 --> 00:45:46,710
I don't know.

920
00:45:46,793 --> 00:45:48,460
I mean, we got divorced

921
00:45:48,543 --> 00:45:51,626
because we couldn't figure out
how to work things out.

922
00:45:51,710 --> 00:45:53,418
We were always fighting.

923
00:45:53,501 --> 00:45:55,293
What's changed?

924
00:45:57,334 --> 00:45:59,877
It's been five years.

925
00:45:59,960 --> 00:46:01,002
Maybe the both of you

926
00:46:01,084 --> 00:46:02,418
have learned
a little something by now.

927
00:46:04,334 --> 00:46:06,084
It doesn't matter.

928
00:46:06,168 --> 00:46:08,793
I don't have time
to consider "what if"s.

929
00:46:08,877 --> 00:46:09,960
Too much stuff to do.

930
00:46:12,002 --> 00:46:13,960
You do so much
for others, Lena.

931
00:46:15,835 --> 00:46:17,835
It's okay to take
a little happiness for yourself

932
00:46:17,918 --> 00:46:18,960
every once in a while.

933
00:46:30,668 --> 00:46:31,710
For you.

934
00:46:31,793 --> 00:46:33,793
Thank you very much.

935
00:46:42,418 --> 00:46:45,168
Morgan, Mr. Wilson
is a photographer.

936
00:46:46,501 --> 00:46:48,084
Oh, it's just a hobby, really.

937
00:46:48,168 --> 00:46:50,460
Morgan is a very talented
photographer herself.

938
00:46:50,543 --> 00:46:51,334
Oh, is that right?

939
00:46:52,877 --> 00:46:53,877
Well, I'd love
to see your work sometime.

940
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:55,293
I'd be happy to show you.

941
00:46:55,376 --> 00:46:56,543
Great.

942
00:46:58,543 --> 00:46:59,752
Everybody have cider?

943
00:46:59,835 --> 00:47:00,793
Yes.

944
00:47:00,877 --> 00:47:01,793
What shall we toast to?

945
00:47:01,877 --> 00:47:03,501
To Christmas.

946
00:47:04,752 --> 00:47:05,585
To family.

947
00:47:05,668 --> 00:47:07,334
And faith.

948
00:47:07,418 --> 00:47:10,585
In yourself,
and in the people around you.

949
00:47:12,168 --> 00:47:15,460
It can be...
very easy to lose sometimes,

950
00:47:15,543 --> 00:47:18,293
and I'm just very grateful

951
00:47:18,376 --> 00:47:22,043
to have people in my life
who remind me.

952
00:47:24,585 --> 00:47:25,376
Hear, hear.

953
00:47:25,460 --> 00:47:26,418
-Cheers.
-Cheers.

954
00:47:26,501 --> 00:47:27,668
Cheers.

955
00:47:27,752 --> 00:47:29,084
-Cheers, Mom.
-Cheers.

956
00:47:32,418 --> 00:47:34,626
Morgan, our son, Marcus,

957
00:47:34,710 --> 00:47:36,626
is at Hope Hills Academy
this weekend.

958
00:47:36,710 --> 00:47:38,002
Here's a picture of him.

959
00:47:38,084 --> 00:47:39,501
Have you seen Marcus, honey?

960
00:47:39,585 --> 00:47:41,543
Yeah. He's my best friend.

961
00:47:44,251 --> 00:47:45,835
Sweetie, he just got there
two days ago.

962
00:47:45,918 --> 00:47:47,251
I know.

963
00:47:50,334 --> 00:47:51,460
Uh, Morgan,
we're all really excited

964
00:47:51,543 --> 00:47:52,460
for your play on Sunday.

965
00:47:52,543 --> 00:47:53,835
Who are you in the play?

966
00:47:53,918 --> 00:47:54,918
I'm the star.

967
00:47:57,585 --> 00:47:59,585
Of course you are.

968
00:47:59,668 --> 00:48:01,043
Oh, it's going to be
a busy house

969
00:48:01,126 --> 00:48:04,752
with everyone arriving
for the play and festivities.

970
00:48:04,835 --> 00:48:07,084
You'll meet lots more
Hope Hills families.

971
00:48:16,752 --> 00:48:18,501
Movie. Movie. Movie.

972
00:48:18,585 --> 00:48:19,960
All right.

973
00:48:20,043 --> 00:48:21,376
A tree.
Christmas tree!

974
00:48:22,626 --> 00:48:23,543
Ornaments. Um...

975
00:48:24,877 --> 00:48:26,293
-Something... um...
-Okay.

976
00:48:26,376 --> 00:48:28,376
Smile. Smiley guy.

977
00:48:28,460 --> 00:48:29,418
Eggnog.

978
00:48:29,501 --> 00:48:31,209
-Um... big... big...
-Christmas...

979
00:48:31,293 --> 00:48:32,209
Uh, man!

980
00:48:32,293 --> 00:48:33,376
Guy!

981
00:48:33,460 --> 00:48:34,835
Turkey?

982
00:48:34,918 --> 00:48:35,918
No, it's definitely a man.

983
00:48:36,002 --> 00:48:37,209
Santa hat.

984
00:48:37,293 --> 00:48:37,877
Smile...

985
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:38,710
Grinch! Grinch!

986
00:48:38,793 --> 00:48:40,084
The Grinch!

987
00:48:40,168 --> 00:48:41,418
How the Grinch
Stole Christmas!

988
00:48:41,501 --> 00:48:42,418
-Yes?
-Yes!

989
00:48:42,501 --> 00:48:44,168
-Oh!
-Yes! Yes! Yes!

990
00:48:45,334 --> 00:48:47,334
-Yes!
-Oh!

991
00:48:47,418 --> 00:48:49,626
That's a good Grinch.
That's a good Grinch.

992
00:48:50,710 --> 00:48:51,918
That was so good.

993
00:48:52,002 --> 00:48:53,334
-That was the Grinch.
-Impressive.

994
00:48:53,418 --> 00:48:56,960
Okay, we're all tied up.
We're all tied up!

995
00:48:57,043 --> 00:48:57,918
Dad, you're up.

996
00:48:58,002 --> 00:48:58,918
Oh, okay.

997
00:48:59,002 --> 00:49:00,251
If we get this, we win.

998
00:49:00,334 --> 00:49:01,084
No pressure.

999
00:49:03,084 --> 00:49:05,585
"No pressure," she says.
"No pressure," she says.

1000
00:49:05,668 --> 00:49:08,002
Ho, ho, ho, yeah.

1001
00:49:10,626 --> 00:49:12,168
Okay.

1002
00:49:12,251 --> 00:49:13,418
Morgan, whenever you're ready,

1003
00:49:13,501 --> 00:49:14,376
start the clock.

1004
00:49:14,460 --> 00:49:15,626
You're on the clock.

1005
00:49:18,793 --> 00:49:19,835
Uh, bells.

1006
00:49:19,918 --> 00:49:22,376
A song, a song, a song.

1007
00:49:24,501 --> 00:49:26,960
A triangle... hat...

1008
00:49:27,043 --> 00:49:29,084
Um, tree... "O Christmas Tree"?

1009
00:49:30,918 --> 00:49:32,460
Heart? A heart!

1010
00:49:32,543 --> 00:49:33,293
"My Heart Will Go On"!

1011
00:49:33,376 --> 00:49:34,460
That's not a Christmas song.

1012
00:49:34,543 --> 00:49:35,626
"Here Comes Santa Claus"!

1013
00:49:35,710 --> 00:49:36,418
Uh, I think you're
getting farther away.

1014
00:49:36,501 --> 00:49:37,126
Oh.

1015
00:49:37,209 --> 00:49:39,835
-Number, uh...
-Four.

1016
00:49:39,918 --> 00:49:41,918
Four. Four? Four!

1017
00:49:42,002 --> 00:49:43,293
20 seconds.

1018
00:49:43,376 --> 00:49:44,835
A bear.

1019
00:49:44,918 --> 00:49:46,002
A car?

1020
00:49:46,084 --> 00:49:48,168
Uh, a sheep!

1021
00:49:48,251 --> 00:49:49,752
Uh, Christmas sheep! Okay.

1022
00:49:49,835 --> 00:49:50,710
10 seconds.

1023
00:49:50,793 --> 00:49:52,251
Lamb, goat...

1024
00:49:53,585 --> 00:49:55,043
A ewe!

1025
00:49:55,126 --> 00:49:56,543
"All I Want for Christmas
is You"!

1026
00:49:56,626 --> 00:49:58,251
Yes!

1027
00:49:58,334 --> 00:49:59,918
-How'd she get that!
-Yes!

1028
00:50:00,002 --> 00:50:01,626
Whoo! Whoa!

1029
00:50:01,710 --> 00:50:03,668
What?

1030
00:50:05,376 --> 00:50:06,752
Yes!

1031
00:50:06,835 --> 00:50:08,960
All right, well,

1032
00:50:09,043 --> 00:50:10,626
it's time for Christmas socks.

1033
00:50:10,710 --> 00:50:12,043
-There you go!
-Thank you!

1034
00:50:12,126 --> 00:50:13,168
Yes, here you go.

1035
00:50:13,251 --> 00:50:15,126
-Oh, that's so sweet.
-Socks for you...

1036
00:50:15,209 --> 00:50:17,209
-Thank you.
-Socks for you...

1037
00:50:17,293 --> 00:50:19,002
-Socks for you...
-Oh, thank you!

1038
00:50:19,084 --> 00:50:21,626
Here you go, Mama.
It's okay.

1039
00:50:21,710 --> 00:50:22,543
You did a great job.

1040
00:50:24,209 --> 00:50:25,460
You know that didn't look
like no ewe.

1041
00:50:26,877 --> 00:50:29,043
So soft!

1042
00:50:29,126 --> 00:50:31,752
Feel that, Morgan.

1043
00:50:31,835 --> 00:50:32,835
Hey, mom?

1044
00:50:32,918 --> 00:50:34,043
Can I go meet
with Misho and Emma

1045
00:50:34,126 --> 00:50:35,418
at the Christmas market?

1046
00:50:35,501 --> 00:50:36,710
Misho's running the booth
until 10:00.

1047
00:50:36,793 --> 00:50:38,543
Of course.
I'll leave the light on.

1048
00:50:40,752 --> 00:50:41,877
Do you want to go?

1049
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:43,418
I... I don't...

1050
00:50:43,501 --> 00:50:47,543
Oh, well, yeah, of course,
you... you should go, honey.

1051
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:50,752
Have fun.

1052
00:50:50,835 --> 00:50:52,793
Okay.

1053
00:51:00,043 --> 00:51:01,543
Morgan's favorite thing

1054
00:51:01,626 --> 00:51:04,543
was taking pictures
of her shoes.

1055
00:51:04,626 --> 00:51:06,752
She's been photographing them
since she was five.

1056
00:51:08,334 --> 00:51:10,835
Every pair of shoes
has a story.

1057
00:51:10,918 --> 00:51:12,626
Are those bunny slippers?

1058
00:51:12,710 --> 00:51:13,960
Yes.

1059
00:51:14,043 --> 00:51:15,543
Morgan named them.

1060
00:51:15,626 --> 00:51:16,501
Bunny and Rabbit.

1061
00:51:18,752 --> 00:51:20,126
That is funny.

1062
00:51:20,209 --> 00:51:22,418
Oh, here's her first
pair of clogs.

1063
00:51:22,501 --> 00:51:24,501
Oh, wow.

1064
00:51:24,585 --> 00:51:25,877
They're very bright.

1065
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,626
Yes, and they went
with nothing,

1066
00:51:27,710 --> 00:51:29,835
but she loved them.

1067
00:51:29,918 --> 00:51:33,126
Wow, this...
this is fantastic.

1068
00:51:33,209 --> 00:51:34,376
Can I get a copy of these?

1069
00:51:34,460 --> 00:51:35,793
Of course.

1070
00:51:35,877 --> 00:51:36,960
I'll save them on a flash drive.

1071
00:51:37,043 --> 00:51:38,293
Great.

1072
00:51:40,376 --> 00:51:42,209
-Wow.
-Look at those.

1073
00:51:51,668 --> 00:51:52,877
Come on, Emma.

1074
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,126
A little to the left.

1075
00:51:54,209 --> 00:51:55,251
Any farther left,

1076
00:51:55,334 --> 00:51:56,918
and I'll hit
the inflatable Santa, so...

1077
00:51:57,002 --> 00:51:58,334
Okay.

1078
00:51:58,418 --> 00:51:59,793
You're really good with her.

1079
00:51:59,877 --> 00:52:00,835
Morgan.

1080
00:52:00,918 --> 00:52:02,752
Well, she's amazing.

1081
00:52:04,668 --> 00:52:05,543
Thanks.

1082
00:52:05,626 --> 00:52:08,251
Thank you.

1083
00:52:08,334 --> 00:52:09,710
Do you ever feel...

1084
00:52:09,793 --> 00:52:11,126
lonely?

1085
00:52:11,209 --> 00:52:14,084
Like no one else
really understands

1086
00:52:14,168 --> 00:52:16,002
what it's like to be...

1087
00:52:16,084 --> 00:52:17,543
Be what?

1088
00:52:18,710 --> 00:52:19,585
Second.

1089
00:52:21,084 --> 00:52:22,168
Is that how you feel?

1090
00:52:23,209 --> 00:52:24,877
I'm used to it.

1091
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:26,043
I love my brother.

1092
00:52:26,126 --> 00:52:28,793
I know that he has
to be the priority.

1093
00:52:28,877 --> 00:52:29,835
But it's hard.

1094
00:52:31,084 --> 00:52:32,460
Yeah.

1095
00:52:32,543 --> 00:52:36,460
Have you ever told anyone
you feel like that?

1096
00:52:36,543 --> 00:52:37,460
Your parents?

1097
00:52:37,543 --> 00:52:39,251
Are you kidding?

1098
00:52:39,334 --> 00:52:41,960
I feel guilty
for even thinking it.

1099
00:52:42,043 --> 00:52:44,334
They have more
to worry about.

1100
00:52:44,418 --> 00:52:48,376
The most important thing
is that Marcus...

1101
00:52:48,460 --> 00:52:50,376
is happy.

1102
00:52:50,460 --> 00:52:53,543
Would he be happy
knowing that you're not?

1103
00:52:55,877 --> 00:52:56,793
Hey, come on, Maya!

1104
00:52:56,877 --> 00:52:58,793
It's your turn!

1105
00:52:58,877 --> 00:53:00,543
Here, I can hold that for you.

1106
00:53:03,084 --> 00:53:04,293
Hope you can do
better than me.

1107
00:53:04,376 --> 00:53:05,793
-I'll try.
-Yeah, it won't be hard.

1108
00:53:07,043 --> 00:53:08,626
We'll see.

1109
00:53:09,752 --> 00:53:11,002
Okay, first try!

1110
00:53:11,084 --> 00:53:11,835
What?

1111
00:53:11,918 --> 00:53:13,002
How?

1112
00:53:13,084 --> 00:53:14,334
Good job. That was awesome.

1113
00:53:22,293 --> 00:53:24,835
Wow, these are nice.

1114
00:53:24,918 --> 00:53:25,877
I thought you'd like them.

1115
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,376
Are they cashmere or wool?

1116
00:53:36,002 --> 00:53:37,543
Guess you gotta get that, huh?

1117
00:53:37,626 --> 00:53:39,543
Nope.

1118
00:53:39,626 --> 00:53:40,501
It can wait.

1119
00:53:42,752 --> 00:53:44,835
Well, look where
you two you ended up.

1120
00:53:44,918 --> 00:53:46,668
Hmm?

1121
00:53:46,752 --> 00:53:47,960
Mistletoe.

1122
00:53:55,793 --> 00:53:56,918
It is tradition.

1123
00:54:13,251 --> 00:54:14,668
Well, I'd...
I'd better go to sleep.

1124
00:54:16,084 --> 00:54:17,293
Good night.
I'll see you tomorrow.

1125
00:54:18,668 --> 00:54:20,002
Good night.

1126
00:54:31,168 --> 00:54:32,960
I think
my ornament's lopsided.

1127
00:54:35,043 --> 00:54:36,752
The birds don't mind.

1128
00:54:38,501 --> 00:54:40,376
I had fun last night.

1129
00:54:40,460 --> 00:54:41,752
Thanks for inviting me.

1130
00:54:41,835 --> 00:54:43,710
Anytime.

1131
00:54:53,168 --> 00:54:54,334
Hey. Come on.

1132
00:54:54,418 --> 00:54:55,543
What are we doing?

1133
00:55:17,918 --> 00:55:18,877
What've you got there?

1134
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:20,835
Just what I was looking for.

1135
00:55:32,209 --> 00:55:33,376
I was upset.

1136
00:55:35,668 --> 00:55:37,168
That we had to come here
for Christmas.

1137
00:55:38,251 --> 00:55:42,626
I worked really hard
to be selected for that recital,

1138
00:55:42,710 --> 00:55:47,002
and it hurt that it wasn't even
a consideration.

1139
00:55:47,084 --> 00:55:48,418
-Maya...
-Please, Mom.

1140
00:55:48,501 --> 00:55:50,877
Just let me say this.

1141
00:55:53,668 --> 00:55:56,418
I know we all have
to sacrifice for Marcus.

1142
00:55:56,501 --> 00:55:58,793
I'm okay with that.

1143
00:55:58,877 --> 00:55:59,835
I love him.

1144
00:55:59,918 --> 00:56:01,460
I really do...

1145
00:56:03,501 --> 00:56:05,710
...but... but sometimes,
I feel like an afterthought.

1146
00:56:09,668 --> 00:56:11,668
How long have you
been feeling like this?

1147
00:56:17,126 --> 00:56:18,460
A while.

1148
00:56:21,585 --> 00:56:24,334
I'm so sorry, Maya.

1149
00:56:24,418 --> 00:56:25,877
I just... I never
want you to feel

1150
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:27,251
like you don't have
a voice in this family,

1151
00:56:27,334 --> 00:56:28,460
because you do.

1152
00:56:29,626 --> 00:56:31,376
But how can I ask
for your attention

1153
00:56:31,460 --> 00:56:32,710
when Marcus needs it more?

1154
00:56:33,835 --> 00:56:35,334
Oh...

1155
00:56:35,418 --> 00:56:36,209
sweetie...

1156
00:56:36,293 --> 00:56:38,543
listen to me.

1157
00:56:38,626 --> 00:56:41,543
I will always
have time for you,

1158
00:56:41,626 --> 00:56:44,418
and I probably
don't say this to you enough,

1159
00:56:44,501 --> 00:56:47,043
but I'm so proud of you.

1160
00:56:47,126 --> 00:56:49,543
I'm so very proud of you.

1161
00:56:49,626 --> 00:56:51,168
And I love you so much.

1162
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:55,418
Oh...

1163
00:56:57,084 --> 00:56:58,126
Hey.

1164
00:56:58,209 --> 00:57:00,334
-Hey.
-Where have you been?

1165
00:57:00,418 --> 00:57:01,168
I had to run a quick errand.

1166
00:57:02,710 --> 00:57:04,501
I, uh, hope
you two lovely ladies

1167
00:57:04,585 --> 00:57:06,460
are ready
for a Christmas dance.

1168
00:57:45,334 --> 00:57:49,334
It's really pretty.

1169
00:57:49,418 --> 00:57:50,877
Wow, that's a lovely necklace.

1170
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:55,543
Oh, thank you.
It was a gift from my husband.

1171
00:57:55,626 --> 00:57:58,251
He had good taste.

1172
00:57:58,334 --> 00:57:59,752
He married me, didn't he?

1173
00:58:04,668 --> 00:58:05,835
You look beautiful,
by the way.

1174
00:58:05,918 --> 00:58:08,668
You clean up
pretty nice yourself.

1175
00:58:34,251 --> 00:58:35,293
She isn't seeing anyone...

1176
00:58:35,376 --> 00:58:37,126
if you were curious.

1177
00:58:37,209 --> 00:58:38,334
Oh?

1178
00:58:38,418 --> 00:58:41,251
This hasn't been
an easy few years for Lena.

1179
00:58:41,334 --> 00:58:44,334
She's had the weight
of the world on her shoulders.

1180
00:58:44,418 --> 00:58:46,418
She likes it that way.

1181
00:58:46,501 --> 00:58:49,251
No... she doesn't.

1182
00:58:58,793 --> 00:59:02,002
Well, aren't you gonna
ask her to dance?

1183
00:59:11,084 --> 00:59:12,293
Say "Jingle Bells!"

1184
00:59:12,376 --> 00:59:13,376
Jingle bells!

1185
00:59:18,460 --> 00:59:19,752
Would you like to dance?

1186
00:59:21,418 --> 00:59:22,460
Go, Mom.

1187
00:59:22,543 --> 00:59:24,626
If you promise
not to step on my toes.

1188
00:59:24,710 --> 00:59:26,002
I can do that.

1189
00:59:38,501 --> 00:59:40,585
I owe you an apology.

1190
00:59:42,460 --> 00:59:43,251
For what?

1191
00:59:45,002 --> 00:59:46,084
For all the times

1192
00:59:46,168 --> 00:59:47,835
when I haven't
made this trip very easy.

1193
00:59:50,002 --> 00:59:52,960
I know you only want
the best for Marcus.

1194
00:59:54,376 --> 00:59:55,334
I do.

1195
00:59:55,418 --> 00:59:56,960
And you do, too.

1196
00:59:59,126 --> 01:00:01,752
You were right.
I haven't always been around,

1197
01:00:01,835 --> 01:00:03,543
but I did what
I knew how to do, Lena,

1198
01:00:03,626 --> 01:00:05,043
and that's make sure

1199
01:00:05,126 --> 01:00:09,668
that you and Marcus and Maya
would always have security.

1200
01:00:11,626 --> 01:00:13,209
We both sacrificed.

1201
01:00:13,293 --> 01:00:14,710
And I'd do it again.

1202
01:00:16,293 --> 01:00:18,126
You know, I think...

1203
01:00:18,209 --> 01:00:19,460
I think it's time

1204
01:00:19,543 --> 01:00:22,002
we stopped holding the past
against each other.

1205
01:00:28,168 --> 01:00:32,126
It's strange
to think of you as my past.

1206
01:00:32,209 --> 01:00:35,043
When I thought about my future,
you were always in it.

1207
01:00:45,835 --> 01:00:48,334
I think it's great
she made a new friend.

1208
01:00:49,918 --> 01:00:51,126
Yeah.

1209
01:00:51,209 --> 01:00:53,543
Does she have to sit
so close to him?

1210
01:00:55,418 --> 01:00:57,376
Easy there, papa bear.

1211
01:01:03,877 --> 01:01:06,376
You know what
all this reminds me of?

1212
01:01:06,460 --> 01:01:08,376
Our first Christmas together.

1213
01:01:12,293 --> 01:01:16,752
Picking you up for
the Merritsville Snow Ball.

1214
01:01:16,835 --> 01:01:18,168
I was so nervous that night.

1215
01:01:18,251 --> 01:01:20,002
You were?

1216
01:01:20,084 --> 01:01:22,752
But when you opened that door
and you smiled at me...

1217
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:27,334
all the nerves just...
just disappeared.

1218
01:01:27,418 --> 01:01:29,918
You had a red bow in your hair,

1219
01:01:30,002 --> 01:01:32,752
and your perfume
smelled like lilacs.

1220
01:01:32,835 --> 01:01:33,710
You remember all that?

1221
01:01:33,793 --> 01:01:34,835
Why wouldn't I?

1222
01:01:34,918 --> 01:01:38,043
Some of the happiest
moments of my life.

1223
01:01:41,835 --> 01:01:45,043
But I know we had some...

1224
01:01:45,126 --> 01:01:47,376
hard times between us, but...

1225
01:01:48,793 --> 01:01:50,710
I never stopped
loving you, Lena.

1226
01:02:34,710 --> 01:02:36,002
There he goes again.

1227
01:02:36,084 --> 01:02:39,084
This is the worst
possible time.

1228
01:02:39,168 --> 01:02:41,209
You'll be home
by Christmas Eve.

1229
01:02:41,293 --> 01:02:43,043
I need to be here now,
with the family,

1230
01:02:43,126 --> 01:02:44,293
while I work things out
for Marcus.

1231
01:02:44,376 --> 01:02:46,543
I thought the ex-wife
takes care of that.

1232
01:02:46,626 --> 01:02:48,293
Can you catch the 8:00 a.m.?

1233
01:02:49,501 --> 01:02:50,585
I'll have to leave here
at 4:00.

1234
01:02:50,668 --> 01:02:52,209
Carol can book it.

1235
01:02:58,793 --> 01:03:00,251
I never asked where you lived.

1236
01:03:00,334 --> 01:03:01,668
Burketsville.

1237
01:03:01,752 --> 01:03:03,376
That's not far from here.

1238
01:03:03,460 --> 01:03:05,251
Hmm...

1239
01:03:05,334 --> 01:03:06,877
Henry!

1240
01:03:08,460 --> 01:03:10,002
It's time!

1241
01:03:10,084 --> 01:03:11,209
Let's go.

1242
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:16,126
Maya, do you want
to do the honors?

1243
01:03:16,209 --> 01:03:17,960
Yeah, sure.

1244
01:03:21,752 --> 01:03:23,209
-Everything okay?
-Yeah.

1245
01:03:23,293 --> 01:03:24,835
Hey, can I get
everyone's attention, please?

1246
01:03:26,626 --> 01:03:28,710
It's time. You ready?

1247
01:03:28,793 --> 01:03:29,710
Five...

1248
01:03:29,793 --> 01:03:31,002
four...

1249
01:03:31,084 --> 01:03:32,002
three...

1250
01:03:32,084 --> 01:03:33,251
two...

1251
01:03:33,334 --> 01:03:34,585
one!

1252
01:03:41,376 --> 01:03:42,835
There we go.

1253
01:03:52,626 --> 01:03:54,168
We need to talk.

1254
01:04:02,918 --> 01:04:05,668
They want me in Chicago
by noon tomorrow.

1255
01:04:08,668 --> 01:04:09,501
Come on, Rick.

1256
01:04:09,585 --> 01:04:10,543
Look, I-I know.

1257
01:04:10,626 --> 01:04:11,626
I'm sorry.

1258
01:04:11,710 --> 01:04:12,543
I did everything
I could think of

1259
01:04:12,626 --> 01:04:13,543
to get out of it.

1260
01:04:13,626 --> 01:04:14,543
Did you?

1261
01:04:17,918 --> 01:04:19,168
I'll be back
for Christmas Eve.

1262
01:04:20,877 --> 01:04:22,376
Look, I'm really sorry.

1263
01:04:24,877 --> 01:04:26,334
I'd stay if I could.

1264
01:04:26,418 --> 01:04:27,251
You gotta believe me.

1265
01:04:28,752 --> 01:04:31,043
The problem is
I was starting to.

1266
01:04:57,752 --> 01:05:00,835
It's beautiful.

1267
01:05:00,918 --> 01:05:02,543
I'm glad you think so.

1268
01:05:04,043 --> 01:05:06,209
It's for you.

1269
01:05:07,626 --> 01:05:08,543
Me?

1270
01:05:10,293 --> 01:05:13,418
I know how hard it can be...

1271
01:05:13,501 --> 01:05:16,293
that first Christmas you lose
someone you love dearly.

1272
01:05:16,376 --> 01:05:20,793
We ran this place together
for years.

1273
01:05:20,877 --> 01:05:22,460
I'm just so used
to seeing her every day.

1274
01:05:23,793 --> 01:05:26,626
Those we love
never really leave us,

1275
01:05:26,710 --> 01:05:29,668
as long as
we keep them right here.

1276
01:05:34,626 --> 01:05:36,293
Thank you.

1277
01:05:41,668 --> 01:05:42,835
What's your ETA?

1278
01:05:42,918 --> 01:05:44,585
My flight lands in an hour.

1279
01:05:46,501 --> 01:05:48,585
I'll call you
as soon as I land.

1280
01:05:48,668 --> 01:05:49,585
Can you send the file?

1281
01:05:57,918 --> 01:05:58,752
Rick? Are you still there?

1282
01:05:58,835 --> 01:06:01,501
I'm here.

1283
01:06:01,585 --> 01:06:02,585
It should be in your inbox.

1284
01:06:02,668 --> 01:06:04,002
Great.

1285
01:06:04,084 --> 01:06:05,835
See you when you get here.

1286
01:06:05,918 --> 01:06:07,002
We'll send a car.

1287
01:06:12,251 --> 01:06:13,626
You know, I don't know

1288
01:06:13,710 --> 01:06:16,418
why I thought
it would be any different...

1289
01:06:16,501 --> 01:06:18,460
that for once, we would be
on the same page.

1290
01:06:18,543 --> 01:06:20,084
A team.

1291
01:06:20,168 --> 01:06:21,626
You can't
get upset at yourself

1292
01:06:21,710 --> 01:06:24,710
for putting your faith
in someone you love.

1293
01:06:24,793 --> 01:06:26,168
I think it's time to go home.

1294
01:06:26,251 --> 01:06:28,168
Don't.

1295
01:06:28,251 --> 01:06:30,002
Don't make this decision
based on Rick.

1296
01:06:30,084 --> 01:06:31,793
It's not about him.

1297
01:06:31,877 --> 01:06:33,293
This whole thing
was his idea, Mom.

1298
01:06:33,376 --> 01:06:34,793
If he can't even
see it through,

1299
01:06:34,877 --> 01:06:35,835
why should I?

1300
01:06:39,835 --> 01:06:41,585
Hello?

1301
01:06:43,626 --> 01:06:45,376
Where is he?
Okay, I'll be right there.

1302
01:06:45,460 --> 01:06:46,877
Sweetheart, what's the matter?

1303
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:48,084
It's Marcus.

1304
01:06:58,793 --> 01:07:00,043
Ms. Wilson!

1305
01:07:00,126 --> 01:07:01,043
Is Marcus okay?

1306
01:07:01,126 --> 01:07:02,460
Your son is fine.

1307
01:07:02,543 --> 01:07:03,835
It's just a scrape.

1308
01:07:03,918 --> 01:07:05,002
It's protocol
to call parents

1309
01:07:05,084 --> 01:07:08,835
even if a band-aid
can cover the situation.

1310
01:07:08,918 --> 01:07:09,793
I didn't mean to worry you.

1311
01:07:13,334 --> 01:07:14,626
This way.

1312
01:07:16,460 --> 01:07:18,043
You know,
Marcus loved the water.

1313
01:07:18,126 --> 01:07:23,710
I taught him how to swim
almost as soon as he could walk.

1314
01:07:23,793 --> 01:07:26,835
One day, when Marcus was seven,

1315
01:07:26,918 --> 01:07:28,002
Maya was four,

1316
01:07:28,084 --> 01:07:31,293
we went down
to the neighborhood pool.

1317
01:07:33,209 --> 01:07:35,460
Maya put her bathing suit
on backwards,

1318
01:07:35,543 --> 01:07:38,710
and I turned away
to deal with that,

1319
01:07:38,793 --> 01:07:42,668
and while I wasn't looking,

1320
01:07:42,752 --> 01:07:45,334
a group of boys,

1321
01:07:45,418 --> 01:07:50,626
boys Marcus thought
were his friends,

1322
01:07:50,710 --> 01:07:54,084
surrounded him
and held his head underwater.

1323
01:07:56,084 --> 01:07:57,501
Maya started screaming.

1324
01:07:57,585 --> 01:08:00,877
She saw it all happening
over my shoulder.

1325
01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,084
I...

1326
01:08:03,168 --> 01:08:08,293
I jumped in,
I pulled him to the surface...

1327
01:08:08,376 --> 01:08:11,626
I got to him just in time.

1328
01:08:14,002 --> 01:08:16,834
And that day,

1329
01:08:16,918 --> 01:08:22,584
I swore I would never leave him
out of my sight again...

1330
01:08:22,668 --> 01:08:27,626
not out of fear
of what he would do to himself,

1331
01:08:27,709 --> 01:08:30,626
but for fear of what
others would do to him.

1332
01:08:31,877 --> 01:08:37,543
We understand if you want
to take Marcus home...

1333
01:08:37,626 --> 01:08:40,626
but you should know
Marcus is doing beautifully.

1334
01:08:42,293 --> 01:08:45,918
He's kind, he's enthusiastic,

1335
01:08:46,002 --> 01:08:48,626
he... adapts quickly.

1336
01:08:50,376 --> 01:08:52,543
It's obvious you've raised
a remarkable young man,

1337
01:08:52,626 --> 01:08:53,959
and the staff here

1338
01:08:54,043 --> 01:08:56,543
unanimously agrees to welcome
Marcus to the program.

1339
01:08:58,376 --> 01:09:01,334
Marcus has a spot here,

1340
01:09:01,418 --> 01:09:03,459
if that's what you decide.

1341
01:09:03,543 --> 01:09:05,376
Oh...

1342
01:09:08,002 --> 01:09:09,543
First door on your right.

1343
01:09:15,126 --> 01:09:16,709
Marcus...

1344
01:09:16,793 --> 01:09:17,752
Oh.

1345
01:09:17,834 --> 01:09:19,251
Oh, my god.

1346
01:09:19,334 --> 01:09:20,584
What happened, sweetheart?

1347
01:09:20,668 --> 01:09:22,584
Well, we were
rehearsing for the play,

1348
01:09:22,668 --> 01:09:24,584
and he slipped
and skinned his knee.

1349
01:09:27,043 --> 01:09:28,626
Are you okay?

1350
01:09:28,709 --> 01:09:30,168
Just a little accident.

1351
01:09:31,168 --> 01:09:34,793
Yeah? Let's get this...

1352
01:09:52,251 --> 01:09:53,668
Well?

1353
01:09:53,752 --> 01:09:54,626
How does it look?

1354
01:09:58,752 --> 01:10:00,293
It's perfect.

1355
01:10:07,084 --> 01:10:08,752
What are you doing here?

1356
01:10:08,834 --> 01:10:09,668
I got the same call as you.

1357
01:10:09,752 --> 01:10:11,418
What happened to Chicago?

1358
01:10:11,501 --> 01:10:12,959
I told Chicago
they were going to have

1359
01:10:13,043 --> 01:10:14,293
to get along without me.

1360
01:10:14,376 --> 01:10:15,959
I was needed somewhere else.

1361
01:10:17,168 --> 01:10:19,084
That could have been
a disaster.

1362
01:10:19,168 --> 01:10:20,793
But... it wasn't.

1363
01:10:20,877 --> 01:10:22,043
But what if he hit his head,

1364
01:10:22,126 --> 01:10:23,584
or got confused,

1365
01:10:23,668 --> 01:10:25,043
or he was scared
in this new place...

1366
01:10:25,126 --> 01:10:28,418
Lena, none of that happened.

1367
01:10:28,501 --> 01:10:29,793
I gave them a chance.

1368
01:10:29,877 --> 01:10:31,376
It's too much, Rick.

1369
01:10:32,626 --> 01:10:37,043
Lena, why are you so determined
to see this fail?

1370
01:10:37,126 --> 01:10:38,376
I'm trying to protect him.

1371
01:10:38,459 --> 01:10:41,376
I'm his mother.

1372
01:10:41,459 --> 01:10:43,584
I'm not going to see him
get hurt.

1373
01:10:46,168 --> 01:10:48,293
I'm sorry, but once
Christmas is over,

1374
01:10:48,376 --> 01:10:50,293
I'm taking him home.

1375
01:11:04,626 --> 01:11:07,418
Lena, I don't want to keep
having the same fight.

1376
01:11:07,501 --> 01:11:09,251
Making the same mistakes.

1377
01:11:09,334 --> 01:11:10,752
Do you?

1378
01:11:10,834 --> 01:11:12,043
So what do we do?

1379
01:11:12,126 --> 01:11:14,043
Put on our Sunday best,

1380
01:11:14,126 --> 01:11:17,293
and go watch our son in a play.

1381
01:11:17,376 --> 01:11:18,918
I hear he steals the show.

1382
01:11:23,334 --> 01:11:25,459
I only want
what's best for him.

1383
01:11:25,543 --> 01:11:26,626
It's all I've ever wanted.

1384
01:11:28,626 --> 01:11:32,168
You are a wonderful,
devoted mother.

1385
01:11:32,251 --> 01:11:35,418
For 18 years,
you worked miracles.

1386
01:11:37,668 --> 01:11:40,126
Marcus's progress
is your victory, Lena.

1387
01:11:40,209 --> 01:11:41,293
You've done it.

1388
01:11:41,376 --> 01:11:44,168
Now let me help.

1389
01:11:44,251 --> 01:11:45,334
And you're not alone.

1390
01:11:55,209 --> 01:11:56,002
Uh, Beth!

1391
01:11:57,293 --> 01:11:58,834
Just the person
we've been looking for.

1392
01:12:01,002 --> 01:12:01,918
Morgan's photos,

1393
01:12:02,002 --> 01:12:03,501
they are way too special

1394
01:12:03,584 --> 01:12:05,668
to be living on
some flash drive.

1395
01:12:06,877 --> 01:12:08,376
They deserve to be seen.

1396
01:12:11,126 --> 01:12:12,626
A star for a star.

1397
01:12:12,709 --> 01:12:14,251
Oh!

1398
01:12:14,334 --> 01:12:16,293
That's amazing.

1399
01:12:16,376 --> 01:12:18,376
Morgan's going to be
over the moon.

1400
01:12:18,459 --> 01:12:19,543
Thank you!

1401
01:12:21,043 --> 01:12:21,834
Aw, Merry Christmas.

1402
01:12:21,918 --> 01:12:22,834
Merry Christmas.

1403
01:12:24,293 --> 01:12:25,376
Hey, there's Bunny and Rabbit!

1404
01:12:27,251 --> 01:12:28,251
They made it.

1405
01:12:28,334 --> 01:12:29,209
They made it in!

1406
01:12:29,293 --> 01:12:30,293
That's beautiful!

1407
01:12:30,376 --> 01:12:31,334
Thank you.

1408
01:12:31,418 --> 01:12:32,376
Hope she likes it.

1409
01:12:32,459 --> 01:12:33,209
Oh, she's going to love it.

1410
01:12:33,293 --> 01:12:34,126
Great.

1411
01:12:35,543 --> 01:12:36,501
She better like it.

1412
01:12:56,752 --> 01:12:58,543
Josiah, Justine.

1413
01:12:58,626 --> 01:13:00,709
This is Rick and Lena,

1414
01:13:00,793 --> 01:13:02,209
and they're here
for the weekend.

1415
01:13:02,293 --> 01:13:03,543
Josiah, nice to meet you.

1416
01:13:03,626 --> 01:13:05,334
Ava, I'd like
to introduce you to Maya.

1417
01:13:05,418 --> 01:13:06,543
Maya's brother is in the play.

1418
01:13:06,626 --> 01:13:08,626
Oh, really? Mine is, too.
Brian's my twin.

1419
01:13:08,709 --> 01:13:10,084
The first thing
he'll do tonight

1420
01:13:10,168 --> 01:13:13,043
is open my locket
to check if we're still there.

1421
01:13:13,126 --> 01:13:14,251
So sweet.

1422
01:13:14,334 --> 01:13:15,459
I'm sure Henry told you,

1423
01:13:15,543 --> 01:13:16,793
but the Hope Hills siblings
are pretty close.

1424
01:13:18,709 --> 01:13:19,877
I'm afraid
you're stuck with us now.

1425
01:13:21,002 --> 01:13:22,418
That doesn't sound so bad.

1426
01:13:23,418 --> 01:13:24,126
I'll add you
to the group chat.

1427
01:13:25,418 --> 01:13:27,209
Thank you.

1428
01:13:27,293 --> 01:13:28,084
Welcome.

1429
01:13:38,168 --> 01:13:39,334
Look.

1430
01:13:39,418 --> 01:13:41,251
They even got Marcus
on the cast list.

1431
01:13:41,334 --> 01:13:42,376
-Is that right?
-Yeah.

1432
01:13:42,459 --> 01:13:43,376
Sure are a lot of people.

1433
01:13:43,459 --> 01:13:44,877
Yeah, glad we got tickets.

1434
01:13:46,459 --> 01:13:47,501
I'm not sure
how Marcus is going to do

1435
01:13:47,584 --> 01:13:48,668
with all these eyes on him.

1436
01:13:49,834 --> 01:13:51,209
Oh, I think
he just might surprise you.

1437
01:13:53,084 --> 01:13:53,877
I'll be right back.

1438
01:13:53,959 --> 01:13:55,043
Where are you going?

1439
01:13:55,126 --> 01:13:57,251
I just need to see.

1440
01:13:57,334 --> 01:13:59,459
I gotta be sure.

1441
01:14:00,293 --> 01:14:01,043
Save me a seat?

1442
01:14:01,126 --> 01:14:03,002
All right.

1443
01:14:15,168 --> 01:14:16,834
Big ears.

1444
01:14:19,334 --> 01:14:21,002
Guys, antlers...

1445
01:14:25,877 --> 01:14:28,126
Everybody, just calm down
and get ready.

1446
01:14:28,209 --> 01:14:29,501
Here we go.

1447
01:14:33,501 --> 01:14:35,752
Hey.

1448
01:14:35,834 --> 01:14:37,084
Everything's going to be okay.

1449
01:14:37,168 --> 01:14:38,043
Okay?

1450
01:14:39,626 --> 01:14:41,459
I'm gonna be up there, too.

1451
01:14:41,543 --> 01:14:42,834
You're gonna do fine.
It's gonna be fun.

1452
01:14:55,084 --> 01:14:56,752
You're gonna do great.

1453
01:15:13,168 --> 01:15:14,501
Where's Mom?

1454
01:15:14,584 --> 01:15:15,459
She's going to miss
the opening.

1455
01:15:15,543 --> 01:15:17,126
Aw, she'll be here.

1456
01:15:29,918 --> 01:15:31,418
You made it.

1457
01:15:31,501 --> 01:15:33,168
Our little guy ready to go?

1458
01:15:35,793 --> 01:15:36,752
Everything alright?

1459
01:15:36,834 --> 01:15:39,126
Yes.

1460
01:15:39,209 --> 01:15:41,084
Yes, it is.

1461
01:15:43,584 --> 01:15:45,334
'Twas the night
before Christmas,

1462
01:15:45,418 --> 01:15:46,668
and all through the house,

1463
01:15:46,752 --> 01:15:48,543
not a creature
was stirring,

1464
01:15:48,626 --> 01:15:51,002
not even a mouse.

1465
01:15:52,334 --> 01:15:55,084
The children were nestled
all snug in their beds

1466
01:15:55,168 --> 01:15:58,334
as visions of sugar-plums
danced in their heads.

1467
01:15:58,418 --> 01:16:02,877
Ma in her 'kerchief
and Pa in his cap

1468
01:16:02,959 --> 01:16:06,543
had just settled down
for a long winter's nap,

1469
01:16:06,626 --> 01:16:09,877
when out on the lawn,
there arose such a clatter,

1470
01:16:09,959 --> 01:16:13,168
they sprang from their chairs
to see what was the matter...

1471
01:16:14,918 --> 01:16:18,877
...when what to their
wondering eyes did appear

1472
01:16:18,959 --> 01:16:22,501
but Santa's red sleigh
and six flying reindeer!

1473
01:16:22,584 --> 01:16:24,043
Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer!

1474
01:16:24,126 --> 01:16:26,251
Now, Prancer and Vixen!

1475
01:16:26,334 --> 01:16:27,543
On, Comet! On, Cupid!

1476
01:16:27,626 --> 01:16:29,501
On, Donner and Blitzen!

1477
01:16:46,543 --> 01:16:47,752
Whoo!

1478
01:17:07,251 --> 01:17:08,084
Hey!

1479
01:17:09,752 --> 01:17:12,626
Um, can I get your autograph?

1480
01:17:12,709 --> 01:17:14,459
You're fabulous.

1481
01:17:14,543 --> 01:17:15,376
I love you.

1482
01:17:15,459 --> 01:17:17,584
Oh, I'm so proud of you.

1483
01:17:17,668 --> 01:17:18,668
You were wonderful.

1484
01:17:18,752 --> 01:17:20,251
Did you have fun?

1485
01:17:21,752 --> 01:17:23,877
What would you think about...

1486
01:17:23,959 --> 01:17:26,002
sticking around here
a little longer?

1487
01:17:27,709 --> 01:17:31,168
I could make
space curtains for your room,

1488
01:17:31,251 --> 01:17:32,834
just like at home.

1489
01:17:34,918 --> 01:17:37,002
I love you
to the moon and back.

1490
01:17:42,168 --> 01:17:43,834
Hey, way to go, Bud!

1491
01:17:43,918 --> 01:17:45,834
Oh! You were amazing.

1492
01:17:45,918 --> 01:17:47,418
You brought
the house down, bro!

1493
01:17:47,501 --> 01:17:49,126
Yes, you did!

1494
01:17:49,209 --> 01:17:53,834
Just where did you learn
all that stage presence from?

1495
01:18:17,376 --> 01:18:18,877
I made this for you.

1496
01:18:31,752 --> 01:18:35,209
So, the feather symbolizes
that...

1497
01:18:35,293 --> 01:18:37,334
you'll fly high,

1498
01:18:37,418 --> 01:18:39,209
and be strong.

1499
01:18:54,668 --> 01:18:56,877
You want me to live here, too.

1500
01:19:01,752 --> 01:19:03,501
Come here.

1501
01:19:07,418 --> 01:19:11,126
It's going to be hard for them
to say goodbye to each other.

1502
01:19:11,209 --> 01:19:13,418
Yeah, well,
maybe they don't have to.

1503
01:19:16,501 --> 01:19:18,501
Hope Hills, they, uh...

1504
01:19:18,584 --> 01:19:19,709
they need
a director of marketing.

1505
01:19:19,793 --> 01:19:22,251
I talked to Madelyn.

1506
01:19:22,334 --> 01:19:24,709
If I took the job,
I could see Marcus every day,

1507
01:19:24,793 --> 01:19:27,959
or as often
as he'd want to see me.

1508
01:19:29,209 --> 01:19:31,752
So... you want to...
you want to move here?

1509
01:19:31,834 --> 01:19:33,793
No. No, no.

1510
01:19:33,877 --> 01:19:37,459
I want... us to move here.

1511
01:19:39,418 --> 01:19:43,418
We could be here together,
if you think it would work.

1512
01:19:47,793 --> 01:19:49,084
Look, um...

1513
01:19:49,168 --> 01:19:53,334
I have no idea what
the future will bring, Lena...

1514
01:19:53,418 --> 01:19:55,209
but I definitely know
I want you in it.

1515
01:20:13,752 --> 01:20:15,543
Whatcha see, Nana?

1516
01:20:25,626 --> 01:20:27,002
When did this happen?

1517
01:20:29,043 --> 01:20:30,584
Oh, they're looking at us.

1518
01:20:35,626 --> 01:20:36,584
Hey, Maya...

1519
01:20:36,668 --> 01:20:38,501
Why don't you play us a song?

1520
01:20:42,918 --> 01:20:44,459
Any requests?

1521
01:20:44,543 --> 01:20:48,376
Uh, how about "It Came
Upon the Midnight Clear"?

1522
01:20:57,752 --> 01:20:59,877
