1
00:00:02,066 --> 00:00:03,066
This program is rated G

2
00:00:04,233 --> 00:00:07,300
and is suitable for
general audiences.

3
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,734
Olivia, where are you?

4
00:00:38,867 --> 00:00:40,600
We're late
for the Christmas Eve gala.

5
00:00:40,734 --> 00:00:42,333
You still need to get dressed.

6
00:00:42,467 --> 00:00:43,767
I am dressed, Mom.

7
00:00:43,900 --> 00:00:45,700
Get down here.

8
00:00:45,834 --> 00:00:47,100
Okay.

9
00:00:50,066 --> 00:00:51,266
Oh no.

10
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,667
I will be glad when you
grow out of this phase.

11
00:00:54,567 --> 00:00:55,567
Please.

12
00:00:58,500 --> 00:00:59,500
Go ahead.

13
00:01:22,934 --> 00:01:24,166
So?

14
00:01:24,300 --> 00:01:26,233
The treatment worked.
I told you.

15
00:01:26,367 --> 00:01:27,476
The trees are going
to be just fine.

16
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:28,700
I don't know how to thank you.

17
00:01:28,734 --> 00:01:31,400
No one else could figure out
what was going on.

18
00:01:31,533 --> 00:01:34,500
Guess that's why they call you
the Christmas Tree Whisperer.

19
00:01:34,633 --> 00:01:36,867
Uh, yeah,
I'm an evergreen specialist.

20
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,300
They don't become
Christmas trees

21
00:01:38,433 --> 00:01:39,476
until someone decorates them.

22
00:01:39,500 --> 00:01:41,100
To be honest,

23
00:01:41,233 --> 00:01:43,066
I don't think they need
to get all gussied up.

24
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,734
I think they're perfect
just the way they are.

25
00:02:04,633 --> 00:02:06,467
Thank you very much.

26
00:02:07,633 --> 00:02:08,713
Mr. Mozzicato, how are you?

27
00:02:08,834 --> 00:02:09,667
I'm great.

28
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,900
My tree, however...
not so much.

29
00:02:12,033 --> 00:02:12,834
I see that.

30
00:02:12,967 --> 00:02:14,567
Lost half of its needles
overnight.

31
00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:17,066
There's still three weeks
until Christmas, Jack.

32
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,033
The tree isn't supposed to look
like this for another month.

33
00:02:21,166 --> 00:02:22,233
I know.

34
00:02:22,367 --> 00:02:24,042
There's something wrong
with this year's entire crop,

35
00:02:24,066 --> 00:02:27,266
so I have been refunding
pretty much everybody.

36
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,166
There you go.

37
00:02:28,300 --> 00:02:30,333
I'm sorry to hear that.

38
00:02:30,467 --> 00:02:31,266
Any idea what's going on?

39
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,400
I can't figure it out,

40
00:02:33,533 --> 00:02:34,910
and no one around here
seems to know what it is.

41
00:02:34,934 --> 00:02:37,100
Listen, I completely understand

42
00:02:37,233 --> 00:02:38,776
if you want to buy a tree
from somewhere else.

43
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,433
You've always been
so generous to our family,

44
00:02:41,567 --> 00:02:44,200
even when we couldn't
afford a tree.

45
00:02:44,333 --> 00:02:46,200
We can wait a bit longer.

46
00:02:46,333 --> 00:02:48,834
I don't want you
to not have a Christmas tree.

47
00:02:48,967 --> 00:02:51,700
Well, if we still don't
have one on Christmas Eve,

48
00:02:51,834 --> 00:02:53,400
then we'll worry about it.

49
00:02:57,133 --> 00:02:57,900
Thank you, Calvin.

50
00:02:58,033 --> 00:02:59,033
Thank you.

51
00:03:04,567 --> 00:03:05,567
Hi.

52
00:03:30,100 --> 00:03:30,800
Hi, Mom.

53
00:03:30,934 --> 00:03:31,934
Oh, hi, honey.

54
00:03:31,967 --> 00:03:33,533
Hey, your dad and I want to know

55
00:03:33,667 --> 00:03:34,910
what time you'll be home
on Friday night.

56
00:03:34,934 --> 00:03:36,800
Our party starts at 6.

57
00:03:36,934 --> 00:03:38,967
Oh, and don't forget
to bring your dress

58
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:40,667
and that beautiful red coat

59
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,567
for the Christmas Eve gala
at the marina.

60
00:03:42,700 --> 00:03:43,910
No, no. I thought
that was canceled.

61
00:03:43,934 --> 00:03:45,467
It's only because
the committee knew

62
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,934
that everybody important
was going to be at your wedding,

63
00:03:48,066 --> 00:03:49,900
and so once you canceled...

64
00:03:50,033 --> 00:03:52,133
The Christmas Eve gala
was back on.

65
00:03:52,266 --> 00:03:53,533
Right.

66
00:03:53,667 --> 00:03:55,367
So we can't very well

67
00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:56,967
just sit around
Christmas Eve moping.

68
00:03:57,100 --> 00:03:58,333
I'm not moping.

69
00:03:58,467 --> 00:03:59,967
Oh. Well, good.

70
00:04:00,166 --> 00:04:00,900
So then you'll come.

71
00:04:01,033 --> 00:04:02,033
I really don't want to.

72
00:04:02,166 --> 00:04:04,834
Oh. Well, everyone
wants to see you.

73
00:04:04,967 --> 00:04:07,300
I don't want
to talk to everyone.

74
00:04:07,433 --> 00:04:09,700
Honey, I know you've always
been more comfortable

75
00:04:09,834 --> 00:04:11,433
around plants than people,

76
00:04:11,567 --> 00:04:13,200
but your dad and I want you
to come home.

77
00:04:13,333 --> 00:04:14,834
We want to make sure
you're okay.

78
00:04:14,967 --> 00:04:16,333
I'm fine.

79
00:04:16,467 --> 00:04:18,400
I'm happy I ended things.

80
00:04:18,533 --> 00:04:20,500
The life Justin wanted
was just too much like...

81
00:04:20,633 --> 00:04:21,633
Like...?

82
00:04:21,767 --> 00:04:23,333
Never mind.

83
00:04:23,467 --> 00:04:24,800
Doesn't matter now.

84
00:04:24,934 --> 00:04:25,943
Love you. See you at home.

85
00:04:25,967 --> 00:04:26,734
But when?

86
00:04:26,867 --> 00:04:28,133
Soon. Promise.

87
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,033
The gala.

88
00:04:33,166 --> 00:04:34,166
Oh...

89
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,343
You don't have to
make dinner for me, Mom.

90
00:04:54,367 --> 00:04:56,300
This has been my kitchen
for 40 years.

91
00:04:56,433 --> 00:04:57,633
I'll do what I want.

92
00:04:57,767 --> 00:04:59,876
You didn't have to move into
that active adult community.

93
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:00,900
You know that, right?

94
00:05:01,033 --> 00:05:03,100
Your father and I
made those arrangements

95
00:05:03,233 --> 00:05:04,100
when he got sick.

96
00:05:04,233 --> 00:05:06,066
He didn't want me
to spend my golden years

97
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,900
sitting around here
all by myself.

98
00:05:08,033 --> 00:05:09,100
I'm here.

99
00:05:09,233 --> 00:05:11,400
Yes, but you're terrible
at mah-jongg.

100
00:05:12,433 --> 00:05:15,734
Oh, honey, all my friends
are there.

101
00:05:15,867 --> 00:05:17,266
It's kind of like college,

102
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,200
only I don't have to study
or take a test...

103
00:05:20,333 --> 00:05:22,400
and I can sleep till noon.

104
00:05:22,533 --> 00:05:23,567
I love it.
Good.

105
00:05:23,700 --> 00:05:26,834
This is going to be
your house now,

106
00:05:26,967 --> 00:05:29,300
and you will raise
your family here.

107
00:05:29,433 --> 00:05:30,633
Here we go.

108
00:05:30,767 --> 00:05:33,533
Of course, first you actually
have to try to find someone.

109
00:05:33,667 --> 00:05:35,467
I'm, uh, too busy for that, Mom.

110
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,967
Life isn't just about work.

111
00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:38,133
It is when you're trying

112
00:05:38,266 --> 00:05:39,443
to keep your family's
hundred-year-old business

113
00:05:39,467 --> 00:05:40,467
in the black.

114
00:05:40,533 --> 00:05:42,600
Well, they all managed
to find some balance

115
00:05:42,734 --> 00:05:44,767
between work and family.

116
00:05:44,900 --> 00:05:46,343
Right now, I just want
to try to figure out

117
00:05:46,367 --> 00:05:47,409
what's wrong with my trees,

118
00:05:47,433 --> 00:05:49,100
and then I'll...

119
00:05:49,233 --> 00:05:50,793
and then I'll worry
about balance, okay?

120
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,200
Ooh...

121
00:05:53,333 --> 00:05:54,700
Kelly, Elliott.

122
00:05:54,834 --> 00:05:56,033
I was hoping you'd stop by.

123
00:05:56,166 --> 00:05:57,567
Hi, Mrs. Connor.

124
00:05:57,700 --> 00:05:59,433
Sit. I made turkey chili.

125
00:05:59,567 --> 00:06:01,433
- Oh, score!
- Yes!

126
00:06:01,567 --> 00:06:02,567
I knew it.

127
00:06:02,700 --> 00:06:04,400
You guys only like me
for my mom's cooking.

128
00:06:04,533 --> 00:06:07,500
I thought that had been
firmly established.

129
00:06:07,633 --> 00:06:08,767
For you.

130
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,767
Oh. You heard.

131
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:13,967
A few people at the tasting room

132
00:06:14,100 --> 00:06:14,834
talking about it.

133
00:06:14,967 --> 00:06:16,600
By "a few," you mean...

134
00:06:16,734 --> 00:06:17,800
Pretty much everyone.

135
00:06:20,266 --> 00:06:22,500
So, any luck figuring out
what's going on?

136
00:06:22,633 --> 00:06:25,734
No. My mom's never seen
anything like this in the past.

137
00:06:25,867 --> 00:06:27,476
I've gone through my dad
and grandpa's journal.

138
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:28,533
There's nothing,

139
00:06:28,667 --> 00:06:30,409
and even the local arborist
doesn't know what it is.

140
00:06:30,433 --> 00:06:31,200
What are you going to do?

141
00:06:31,333 --> 00:06:32,633
Reeve Sawyer said

142
00:06:32,767 --> 00:06:34,800
there's some kind of
Christmas tree expert

143
00:06:34,934 --> 00:06:35,934
over at UConn,

144
00:06:35,967 --> 00:06:37,607
so I'm going to call there
in the morning.

145
00:06:37,734 --> 00:06:39,266
Well, I'll be right here
with you.

146
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:40,443
- Thanks, man.
- Uh, Elliott,

147
00:06:40,467 --> 00:06:42,633
I won't be here
for breakfast in the morning.

148
00:06:42,767 --> 00:06:44,233
Oh.

149
00:06:44,367 --> 00:06:45,934
Then I'll be with you in spirit.

150
00:06:46,066 --> 00:06:47,100
Right.

151
00:06:57,900 --> 00:06:59,380
Olivia, what are you
still doing here?

152
00:06:59,433 --> 00:07:00,476
You're going to hit
standstill traffic

153
00:07:00,500 --> 00:07:02,000
going from here
down to Westport.

154
00:07:02,133 --> 00:07:03,367
That's the plan.

155
00:07:03,500 --> 00:07:04,710
Are you sure you're doing okay?

156
00:07:04,734 --> 00:07:07,433
I know this was supposed
to be your wedding weekend...

157
00:07:07,567 --> 00:07:08,433
I'm fine.

158
00:07:08,567 --> 00:07:09,976
Why does everyone
think I'm not fine?

159
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,280
Because you never talk about it.

160
00:07:11,367 --> 00:07:12,800
That doesn't mean I'm not fine.

161
00:07:12,934 --> 00:07:14,009
It just means
I don't want to talk...

162
00:07:14,033 --> 00:07:15,042
Don't want to talk about it.

163
00:07:15,066 --> 00:07:16,166
Got it, got it.

164
00:07:16,300 --> 00:07:17,300
Hmm.

165
00:07:18,133 --> 00:07:19,800
It's just, you know,

166
00:07:19,934 --> 00:07:22,967
you're barely even acknowledging
that it's Christmas.

167
00:07:24,533 --> 00:07:28,066
Truthfully, I'm just
Christmassed out.

168
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,266
All my parents care about

169
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,066
is people seeing
their perfect Christmas.

170
00:07:32,166 --> 00:07:33,767
It's a lot.

171
00:07:33,900 --> 00:07:35,876
If I could skip the whole thing
this year, I would.

172
00:07:35,900 --> 00:07:37,000
Oh, yes!

173
00:07:37,133 --> 00:07:38,309
There's a huge traffic jam
on the Merritt.

174
00:07:38,333 --> 00:07:40,533
Okay, well, you can't
sit around here

175
00:07:40,667 --> 00:07:41,367
the entire break.

176
00:07:41,500 --> 00:07:42,967
At least come out
with me and Adam

177
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:43,834
for Christmas Eve.

178
00:07:43,967 --> 00:07:45,867
Didn't you say you thought

179
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,266
Adam was going to propose to you
on Christmas Eve?

180
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,767
Well, yes, but that...

181
00:07:51,900 --> 00:07:54,533
But nothing. I'm fine.

182
00:07:54,667 --> 00:07:56,000
It's a few days
of my mom saying,

183
00:07:56,133 --> 00:07:59,033
"Is that what you're wearing?"

184
00:07:59,166 --> 00:08:00,266
I'm going to be fine.

185
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,400
Okay.

186
00:08:02,533 --> 00:08:03,967
- Olivia Arden.
- Yeah, hi.

187
00:08:04,100 --> 00:08:05,800
I'm hoping you can help me.

188
00:08:05,934 --> 00:08:07,576
A friend said that
there was someone over there

189
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,567
that's an expert
on Christmas trees.

190
00:08:09,700 --> 00:08:10,780
Oh, you're probably looking

191
00:08:10,867 --> 00:08:12,176
for the chief evergreen
horticulturist

192
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:13,476
at the UConn College
of Agriculture.

193
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:15,967
Yes, that sounds like
the person I'm looking for.

194
00:08:16,100 --> 00:08:18,166
That's me.
What can I help you with?

195
00:08:18,300 --> 00:08:19,576
Look, I know it's only
a week before Christmas,

196
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,076
so you're probably busy
or on vacation,

197
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:22,767
but my fir trees
are dropping needles

198
00:08:22,900 --> 00:08:24,433
almost immediately
after being cut.

199
00:08:24,567 --> 00:08:27,100
No one locally seems
to know what's going on.

200
00:08:27,233 --> 00:08:29,166
I'm the fourth-generation
owner of this farm.

201
00:08:29,300 --> 00:08:31,800
We've never seen anything
like this before, and I just...

202
00:08:31,934 --> 00:08:33,042
I'm getting pretty desperate,

203
00:08:33,066 --> 00:08:35,567
and I was wondering
if you happen to have time,

204
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:36,900
you could come to Avon, and...

205
00:08:36,934 --> 00:08:38,066
I have time, actually.

206
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,367
Yes, I do have time.

207
00:08:39,500 --> 00:08:40,500
How's this afternoon?

208
00:08:40,567 --> 00:08:42,433
I can get up to Avon
in less than an hour.

209
00:08:42,567 --> 00:08:43,834
Really?

210
00:08:43,967 --> 00:08:44,734
That's amazing.

211
00:08:44,867 --> 00:08:46,433
You're not too busy?

212
00:08:46,567 --> 00:08:48,266
I mean, I think
I can squeeze you in.

213
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,600
That's incredible news.

214
00:08:49,734 --> 00:08:53,300
It's Connor's Christmas Trees,
523 Rock Oak Lane.

215
00:08:53,433 --> 00:08:54,200
Okay.

216
00:08:54,333 --> 00:08:55,800
I will see you soon.

217
00:08:55,934 --> 00:08:56,934
See you soon.

218
00:08:58,333 --> 00:09:00,467
Looks like I'm up
for a little detour.

219
00:09:04,233 --> 00:09:06,400
Okay, see you in a little bit.

220
00:09:08,633 --> 00:09:09,367
I'll see you in a bit, Mom.

221
00:09:09,500 --> 00:09:10,900
Oh, wait.

222
00:09:11,033 --> 00:09:13,500
What time is the person
from UConn getting here?

223
00:09:13,633 --> 00:09:15,500
She's going to be here
within the hour.

224
00:09:15,633 --> 00:09:17,576
I'm just going to go do a quick
pickup for Miss Plankis.

225
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,433
Well, look on the bright side.

226
00:09:19,567 --> 00:09:20,367
From what I've heard,

227
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:23,367
our customers
are willing to wait

228
00:09:23,500 --> 00:09:25,266
until they can buy from us
again this year.

229
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,567
Now, that's loyalty.

230
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:28,900
And, uh, you earned it.

231
00:09:29,033 --> 00:09:32,433
Thank you, but that took
a decade to build,

232
00:09:32,567 --> 00:09:33,667
and I could lose it all

233
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,166
if our customers don't have
a tree by Christmas.

234
00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:37,533
Yeah.

235
00:09:37,667 --> 00:09:39,076
Anyway, look,
I'll see you in 20 minutes.

236
00:09:39,100 --> 00:09:40,100
Yeah.

237
00:09:51,767 --> 00:09:53,066
Enter roundabout.

238
00:09:55,333 --> 00:09:57,834
Enter roundabout.

239
00:09:58,934 --> 00:10:00,033
Oh!

240
00:10:00,166 --> 00:10:01,333
Exit right.

241
00:10:01,467 --> 00:10:03,000
Seriously?

242
00:10:03,133 --> 00:10:04,133
Oh, man.

243
00:10:06,266 --> 00:10:07,967
Recalculating route.

244
00:10:08,100 --> 00:10:09,100
Too late, lady.

245
00:10:10,967 --> 00:10:11,667
Are you okay?

246
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,533
I'm fine. You?

247
00:10:13,667 --> 00:10:14,400
Oh, I'm fine.

248
00:10:14,533 --> 00:10:16,333
It was just a love tap.

249
00:10:16,467 --> 00:10:17,476
Sorry, that's just
what people call it,

250
00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:18,967
which doesn't make any sense,

251
00:10:19,100 --> 00:10:21,333
considering it's almost always
a total stranger.

252
00:10:21,467 --> 00:10:24,467
It seems a little more
like a punch than a tap.

253
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,900
You did hit the brakes
pretty hard.

254
00:10:27,033 --> 00:10:28,867
Well, it was my exit,
so I slowed down.

255
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,276
Looks like you realized that
a smidge too late.

256
00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:31,133
If you weren't tailgating...

257
00:10:31,266 --> 00:10:32,000
I wasn't tailgating.

258
00:10:32,133 --> 00:10:33,533
Okay, you know what?

259
00:10:33,667 --> 00:10:35,066
Let's just exchange
insurance info.

260
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:35,967
Right.

261
00:10:36,100 --> 00:10:37,834
Yeah.

262
00:10:37,967 --> 00:10:40,333
This is just what I need today.

263
00:10:40,467 --> 00:10:43,367
Well, I'm sure
there isn't too much damage.

264
00:10:43,500 --> 00:10:44,633
No.

265
00:10:44,767 --> 00:10:46,734
That tree, on the other hand...

266
00:10:46,867 --> 00:10:49,400
looks totaled.

267
00:10:49,533 --> 00:10:50,300
You got that right.

268
00:10:50,433 --> 00:10:52,233
That's why I was in a rush.

269
00:10:52,367 --> 00:10:56,700
I'm meeting someone who
supposedly knows how to fix it.

270
00:10:56,834 --> 00:10:57,567
Here you go.

271
00:10:57,700 --> 00:11:00,066
Uh, yeah.

272
00:11:02,066 --> 00:11:04,834
Yeah. They call her
the Christmas Tree Whisperer...

273
00:11:06,367 --> 00:11:08,500
Which is a bit much,
if you ask me.

274
00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:12,033
Well, that's pretty cheesy,

275
00:11:12,166 --> 00:11:15,934
but maybe she doesn't
call herself that.

276
00:11:16,066 --> 00:11:17,600
And...

277
00:11:17,734 --> 00:11:20,000
maybe she really is that good.

278
00:11:20,133 --> 00:11:21,767
Maybe...

279
00:11:21,900 --> 00:11:23,667
but I'm trying
not to get my hopes up.

280
00:11:25,367 --> 00:11:26,767
Anyway, listen.

281
00:11:26,900 --> 00:11:29,600
Just get me the estimate,
and I'll take care of all this.

282
00:11:29,734 --> 00:11:31,100
Thank you.

283
00:11:31,233 --> 00:11:32,000
You're welcome.

284
00:11:32,133 --> 00:11:33,834
I'm going to need your info.

285
00:11:33,967 --> 00:11:35,166
Yes.

286
00:11:39,533 --> 00:11:40,300
Oh, shoot.

287
00:11:40,433 --> 00:11:41,233
I'm trying to find it.

288
00:11:41,367 --> 00:11:42,407
Oh, sorry. It's not you.

289
00:11:42,533 --> 00:11:44,042
It's just I'm going to be late.
I have this meeting.

290
00:11:44,066 --> 00:11:45,066
So do I.

291
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,400
Oh yeah? Where are you headed?

292
00:11:50,867 --> 00:11:52,433
Connor's Christmas Trees.

293
00:11:55,467 --> 00:11:57,033
Right.

294
00:11:57,166 --> 00:11:59,533
Yeah. See you there.

295
00:11:59,667 --> 00:12:00,667
Yeah.

296
00:12:10,567 --> 00:12:11,567
Oh no.

297
00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:14,000
Oh no.

298
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,233
I am really sorry.

299
00:12:20,367 --> 00:12:23,000
Clearly, you were heading
somewhere after our meeting.

300
00:12:23,133 --> 00:12:25,600
Oh, just to Westport for a week.

301
00:12:25,734 --> 00:12:26,774
Christmas with the family.

302
00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:28,209
You can't do that
without a tailpipe.

303
00:12:28,233 --> 00:12:29,300
Nope.

304
00:12:29,433 --> 00:12:30,676
Yeah, if you don't mind
the engine stalling

305
00:12:30,700 --> 00:12:32,500
every few minutes.

306
00:12:32,633 --> 00:12:33,500
And the noise. And the fumes.

307
00:12:33,633 --> 00:12:34,800
Yes, yes.

308
00:12:34,934 --> 00:12:36,633
I must stay
and wait for the repairs.

309
00:12:36,767 --> 00:12:37,767
For the planet.

310
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,509
It's fine if I get there
a little late tonight.

311
00:12:41,533 --> 00:12:43,600
Actually, I just got
a text from the shop.

312
00:12:43,734 --> 00:12:45,943
It looks like the replacement
won't be here until tomorrow.

313
00:12:45,967 --> 00:12:47,133
Darn the luck.

314
00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:51,033
I feel like you're not
really in a rush to get home.

315
00:12:51,166 --> 00:12:53,066
Listen, my cousin Lisa
runs the Old Avon Inn.

316
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,309
It's a few blocks from here.

317
00:12:54,333 --> 00:12:56,276
Why don't you stay overnight
till your car's ready,

318
00:12:56,300 --> 00:12:57,340
and we'll take care of it?

319
00:12:58,533 --> 00:12:59,600
You don't have to do that.

320
00:12:59,734 --> 00:13:00,976
You didn't have to come here,
and you did,

321
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,166
and I appreciate it.

322
00:13:03,934 --> 00:13:05,233
I mean, it would be better

323
00:13:05,367 --> 00:13:06,700
to take the soil samples
at dawn.

324
00:13:06,834 --> 00:13:08,314
That way, I'd get
the best temperature

325
00:13:08,433 --> 00:13:10,500
for measuring microbes
and moisture.

326
00:13:10,633 --> 00:13:11,867
There you go. Win-win.

327
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000
Unless, of course,
they're not fixable.

328
00:13:15,133 --> 00:13:15,967
Then it's win-lose.

329
00:13:16,100 --> 00:13:17,100
Who wins?

330
00:13:17,133 --> 00:13:18,633
Well, you. You still get paid.

331
00:13:18,767 --> 00:13:20,647
I'm not going to charge you
if I can't help you.

332
00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:22,233
I'm not going to let you
work for free.

333
00:13:22,367 --> 00:13:23,200
Wait. Does that mean

334
00:13:23,333 --> 00:13:24,200
you don't think
you can actually help me?

335
00:13:24,333 --> 00:13:25,467
I didn't say that.

336
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,233
Oh, you're hedging your bets.

337
00:13:29,700 --> 00:13:31,533
I'm all about evergreens.

338
00:13:32,967 --> 00:13:34,233
I don't do hedges.

339
00:13:34,367 --> 00:13:36,133
Hmm.

340
00:13:42,867 --> 00:13:44,233
Lisa, thank you
so much for this.

341
00:13:44,367 --> 00:13:45,533
This is Olivia.

342
00:13:45,667 --> 00:13:47,066
Hi.

343
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,276
Well, I just hope you can help.

344
00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:50,200
I'll do everything I can.

345
00:13:50,333 --> 00:13:51,676
Well, you came
on the perfect night.

346
00:13:51,700 --> 00:13:53,333
Tonight's our big Christmas
open house.

347
00:13:53,467 --> 00:13:55,467
Dinner, dessert,
my famous hot cocoa...

348
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:56,867
I know everyone always says

349
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,720
their famous whatever-they-make
is the best,

350
00:13:58,834 --> 00:13:59,834
but hers really is.

351
00:13:59,967 --> 00:14:01,433
Thank you for the invitation,

352
00:14:01,567 --> 00:14:03,100
but I'm really
just here to work.

353
00:14:03,233 --> 00:14:07,000
Okay. Well, um,
here is the code to your room,

354
00:14:07,133 --> 00:14:08,734
and just in case
you change your mind,

355
00:14:08,867 --> 00:14:09,734
here is a flyer

356
00:14:09,867 --> 00:14:11,309
to this week's community
Christmas events.

357
00:14:11,333 --> 00:14:12,567
You might change your mind.

358
00:14:12,700 --> 00:14:13,433
- Okay.
- It's...

359
00:14:13,567 --> 00:14:15,600
Okay.

360
00:14:15,734 --> 00:14:17,100
Uh... I...

361
00:14:17,233 --> 00:14:18,409
- Oh, you want a hand?
- No, I'm good, thanks.

362
00:14:18,433 --> 00:14:19,900
Okay.

363
00:14:20,033 --> 00:14:23,133
Let us know
if you need anything.

364
00:14:23,266 --> 00:14:24,734
Man...

365
00:14:24,867 --> 00:14:26,100
I hit her car.

366
00:14:26,233 --> 00:14:27,900
- What?
- Yeah. I hit her car.

367
00:14:28,033 --> 00:14:29,600
That's a great start, Jack.

368
00:14:29,734 --> 00:14:31,066
I know.

369
00:14:47,700 --> 00:14:50,600
Okay. All right.

370
00:14:54,734 --> 00:14:56,200
Hi, Mom.

371
00:14:56,333 --> 00:14:58,467
I ended up coming up to Avon
for a freelance job.

372
00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,967
It was supposed to be quick,

373
00:15:00,166 --> 00:15:02,367
and, uh, my car ended up
needing repairs.

374
00:15:02,500 --> 00:15:03,667
Oh.

375
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:04,910
Well, so when
are you getting here?

376
00:15:04,934 --> 00:15:06,300
Tomorrow.

377
00:15:06,433 --> 00:15:07,200
Sometime.

378
00:15:07,333 --> 00:15:08,333
Sorry about that.

379
00:15:10,066 --> 00:15:12,033
Do I hear Christmas music?

380
00:15:12,166 --> 00:15:13,500
Uh, yeah.

381
00:15:13,633 --> 00:15:16,100
There's some Christmas party
going on downstairs.

382
00:15:16,233 --> 00:15:18,033
You're going to a party?

383
00:15:18,166 --> 00:15:20,333
Oh... is that
what you're wearing?

384
00:15:20,467 --> 00:15:21,500
I'm working.

385
00:15:21,633 --> 00:15:23,500
Well, still, honey.

386
00:15:23,633 --> 00:15:25,467
Speaking of that,
I've got to go.

387
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:26,600
Love you. Bye.

388
00:15:38,100 --> 00:15:39,467
Hey, guys. How's it going?

389
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:42,700
Hey, Jack.

390
00:15:42,834 --> 00:15:44,074
Oh, Mayor McGuire. How are you?

391
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:45,543
Good, good.
I was hoping to run into you.

392
00:15:45,567 --> 00:15:47,500
I hear you're having
some tree troubles.

393
00:15:47,633 --> 00:15:48,793
Now, I don't need to tell you

394
00:15:48,867 --> 00:15:50,609
how important this year's
Christmas Eve tree lighting is.

395
00:15:50,633 --> 00:15:51,633
It's a hundred years.

396
00:15:51,767 --> 00:15:54,000
I know,
it's always been a Connor tree.

397
00:15:54,133 --> 00:15:55,700
You have nothing
to worry about, Sean.

398
00:15:55,834 --> 00:15:56,600
I guarantee it.

399
00:15:56,734 --> 00:15:57,734
Okay, thank you, Jack.

400
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:58,810
I just needed to hear it
from the farmer's mouth.

401
00:15:58,834 --> 00:15:59,567
Well, you got it.

402
00:15:59,700 --> 00:16:00,967
- Mayor?
- Oh, okay.

403
00:16:01,100 --> 00:16:02,100
I've got to go.

404
00:16:04,367 --> 00:16:06,500
Hey. Listen, we need
to talk about the tree.

405
00:16:06,633 --> 00:16:08,393
I know, and I know it's going
to be bad news.

406
00:16:08,500 --> 00:16:10,433
So first, we cocoa.

407
00:16:10,567 --> 00:16:11,567
We what?

408
00:16:11,700 --> 00:16:12,934
We cocoa. Come.

409
00:16:13,066 --> 00:16:14,333
Oh.

410
00:16:15,300 --> 00:16:16,333
All right.

411
00:16:16,467 --> 00:16:18,233
This is the best hot cocoa
you have ever had.

412
00:16:18,367 --> 00:16:21,266
What is this, a down payment?

413
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,843
I get the rest
after I finish the job?

414
00:16:22,867 --> 00:16:26,500
No, the rest is toppings,
and that's the best part.

415
00:16:26,633 --> 00:16:28,433
Oh, I actually prefer it
without toppings.

416
00:16:28,567 --> 00:16:29,867
Not even whipped cream?

417
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,200
Uh...

418
00:16:31,333 --> 00:16:32,567
It's just filler.

419
00:16:32,700 --> 00:16:33,876
It's the tinsel
of hot chocolate.

420
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:36,367
A purist, huh?

421
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:38,567
I guess I just prefer things
in their natural state.

422
00:16:38,700 --> 00:16:39,700
Oh.

423
00:16:39,734 --> 00:16:41,700
Take an evergreen.

424
00:16:41,834 --> 00:16:44,000
Did you know that originally

425
00:16:44,133 --> 00:16:46,309
people just brought these trees
into their homes in the winter

426
00:16:46,333 --> 00:16:48,233
for the beauty
of the greenery itself?

427
00:16:48,367 --> 00:16:49,467
Right.

428
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,200
But until the decorations
are on it,

429
00:16:51,333 --> 00:16:52,867
it's not really
a Christmas tree.

430
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,867
I mean, that's kind of
what makes it special.

431
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,100
Well, there's nothing wrong

432
00:16:56,233 --> 00:16:58,400
with letting things
just be what they are.

433
00:16:58,533 --> 00:16:59,800
Hmm.

434
00:17:01,734 --> 00:17:02,467
Mm.

435
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,033
Top notch.

436
00:17:04,166 --> 00:17:04,867
Right?

437
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,200
As is.

438
00:17:06,333 --> 00:17:07,867
Okay.

439
00:17:09,066 --> 00:17:10,400
All right,
I'm ready for the news.

440
00:17:10,533 --> 00:17:11,266
Hit me.

441
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,800
All right.

442
00:17:12,934 --> 00:17:16,300
Well, I only have a couple
of theories right now, but...

443
00:17:16,433 --> 00:17:17,767
Um...

444
00:17:19,467 --> 00:17:20,743
You have... you have a little
something on your face.

445
00:17:20,767 --> 00:17:21,934
I do?

446
00:17:22,066 --> 00:17:23,146
Where is it? Like, up here?

447
00:17:23,266 --> 00:17:23,967
That... no, um...

448
00:17:24,100 --> 00:17:25,109
Just down there? So I got it?

449
00:17:25,133 --> 00:17:25,834
Yeah. There's still more.

450
00:17:25,967 --> 00:17:27,633
A little bit more over here?

451
00:17:27,767 --> 00:17:29,100
Okay. There we go.

452
00:17:29,233 --> 00:17:31,667
Look, it's not fair
for me to guess

453
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:32,800
and ruin your night.

454
00:17:32,934 --> 00:17:35,300
Is that because your guess
is that I'm doomed?

455
00:17:35,433 --> 00:17:37,133
Look, enjoy the party,

456
00:17:37,266 --> 00:17:39,834
and we'll start from scratch
first thing in the morning.

457
00:17:41,066 --> 00:17:42,633
Thanks for the cocoa.

458
00:17:42,767 --> 00:17:44,500
You're welcome.

459
00:17:44,633 --> 00:17:46,000
Hey.

460
00:17:49,567 --> 00:17:51,800
Hey, are you sure
you don't want to stay?

461
00:17:51,934 --> 00:17:53,867
They're actually about
to start the caroling.

462
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,633
Oh, no.

463
00:17:55,767 --> 00:17:59,133
Me singing would definitely
ruin your night.

464
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:18,100
Hello?

465
00:18:18,233 --> 00:18:19,433
Hey. I'm here. Where are you?

466
00:18:19,567 --> 00:18:20,900
Hey. Uh, I'm in the barn.

467
00:18:21,033 --> 00:18:22,033
I'll be right there.

468
00:18:46,767 --> 00:18:47,500
Need a hand?

469
00:18:47,633 --> 00:18:48,633
Oh! Hey.

470
00:18:48,734 --> 00:18:51,433
No. I'm all done. Thank you.

471
00:18:51,567 --> 00:18:52,300
So you're having
a Christmas fair?

472
00:18:52,433 --> 00:18:53,467
Yeah.

473
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,400
We do a last-minute
shopping event every year.

474
00:18:55,467 --> 00:18:56,467
All the vendors come out.

475
00:18:56,567 --> 00:18:57,300
It's this weekend.

476
00:18:57,433 --> 00:18:58,500
Huh.

477
00:18:58,633 --> 00:19:00,533
Hopefully by then,
the lot will be back open.

478
00:19:00,667 --> 00:19:01,667
It should be.

479
00:19:01,700 --> 00:19:03,000
I haven't been stumped yet.

480
00:19:03,133 --> 00:19:04,367
Stumped.

481
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:05,600
I like that.

482
00:19:06,967 --> 00:19:08,633
Uh, don't say,
"I see what you did there,"

483
00:19:08,767 --> 00:19:09,500
because I didn't.

484
00:19:09,633 --> 00:19:10,734
It's okay.

485
00:19:10,867 --> 00:19:12,166
I be-leaf you.

486
00:19:12,300 --> 00:19:14,233
Do you do this a lot?

487
00:19:14,367 --> 00:19:15,734
All the time.
My friends hate it.

488
00:19:15,867 --> 00:19:17,500
It's because
I was born in the fall.

489
00:19:17,633 --> 00:19:18,633
The fall?

490
00:19:18,700 --> 00:19:20,300
Yeah. Sep-timber.

491
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:22,920
Come with me. It's this way.

492
00:19:25,467 --> 00:19:27,133
These all look perfect.

493
00:19:27,266 --> 00:19:28,333
Yeah, exactly.

494
00:19:28,467 --> 00:19:30,066
I mean, they're thriving...

495
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,300
until they're cut.

496
00:19:32,734 --> 00:19:34,133
Could I see a tree

497
00:19:34,266 --> 00:19:35,576
that's been cut
within the last two days?

498
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:36,600
Yeah.

499
00:19:36,667 --> 00:19:38,967
There's actually one next door
at the cidery.

500
00:19:41,033 --> 00:19:42,667
This is the tree.

501
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,033
This is after only two days?

502
00:19:45,166 --> 00:19:47,333
Yep, I'm afraid so.

503
00:19:47,467 --> 00:19:48,200
Now, what do you think?

504
00:19:48,333 --> 00:19:49,166
Do you think
this is needle cast?

505
00:19:49,300 --> 00:19:50,633
No.

506
00:19:50,767 --> 00:19:53,800
No, needle cast disease
doesn't work this quickly.

507
00:19:53,934 --> 00:19:56,133
This is something else.

508
00:19:57,033 --> 00:19:57,767
Hi.

509
00:19:57,900 --> 00:20:00,367
I'm Kelly. This is Elliott.

510
00:20:00,500 --> 00:20:01,834
- Morning, guys.
- Hi.

511
00:20:01,967 --> 00:20:03,367
Hello. I'm Olivia Arden.

512
00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:05,042
Thank you for letting me
take a cutting of your tree.

513
00:20:05,066 --> 00:20:06,266
Of course.

514
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:07,734
Anything for my brother here.

515
00:20:07,867 --> 00:20:09,834
Oh. You're brothers?

516
00:20:09,967 --> 00:20:11,066
Uh, he wishes,

517
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,333
'cause then maybe he'd be
a little bit taller.

518
00:20:13,467 --> 00:20:16,800
Yeah, and he could afford
a jacket with sleeves.

519
00:20:18,834 --> 00:20:20,133
Our families are best friends.

520
00:20:20,266 --> 00:20:22,009
We spent almost every
Christmas together growing up.

521
00:20:22,033 --> 00:20:24,367
That's actually what started
our PJ-all-day tradition.

522
00:20:24,500 --> 00:20:25,700
Huh.

523
00:20:25,834 --> 00:20:26,834
What?

524
00:20:26,934 --> 00:20:28,834
I had to get dressed
in my Christmas best

525
00:20:28,967 --> 00:20:30,476
before even coming down
to see if Santa came.

526
00:20:30,500 --> 00:20:31,367
Really?

527
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:32,667
It's fine.

528
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:33,800
You know what you need?

529
00:20:33,867 --> 00:20:36,000
Some fresh hard cider.

530
00:20:36,133 --> 00:20:37,133
Oh!

531
00:20:39,533 --> 00:20:40,300
It's00 in the morning.

532
00:20:40,433 --> 00:20:42,133
- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

533
00:20:46,533 --> 00:20:49,633
We're trying to crack
the Bloody Mary-mimosa market.

534
00:20:49,767 --> 00:20:51,567
Guys, Olivia's
got a lot of work to do.

535
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:54,200
Okay, well, then, at least
try the soft cider.

536
00:20:54,333 --> 00:20:55,133
Right out of the barrel.

537
00:20:55,266 --> 00:20:56,400
All right.

538
00:20:56,533 --> 00:20:57,900
Yeah?

539
00:20:58,033 --> 00:20:59,767
Thank you.

540
00:21:05,734 --> 00:21:07,400
That's really complex.

541
00:21:09,166 --> 00:21:13,467
I taste notes of, um,
peach, cinnamon,

542
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,166
and... vanilla?

543
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:18,467
You have
a well-developed palate.

544
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,066
I've always loved
how certain flavors

545
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,567
are connected to the minerals
in the soil,

546
00:21:22,700 --> 00:21:25,133
and how it changes
from acre to acre.

547
00:21:25,266 --> 00:21:28,033
You know, every farm
has its own unique taste.

548
00:21:28,166 --> 00:21:29,266
See? She gets it.

549
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,800
Yeah.

550
00:21:31,934 --> 00:21:33,567
The soil
in this part of Connecticut

551
00:21:33,700 --> 00:21:35,333
is great for apples and pears

552
00:21:35,467 --> 00:21:38,400
and berries and pumpkins.

553
00:21:40,233 --> 00:21:42,009
You know, you could grow
something for every season,

554
00:21:42,033 --> 00:21:43,066
not just Christmas.

555
00:21:44,700 --> 00:21:46,734
We just do Christmas trees.

556
00:21:46,867 --> 00:21:48,367
I know.

557
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:49,876
What I'm saying is
if you diversify,

558
00:21:49,900 --> 00:21:50,633
you wouldn't be so dependent
on one commodity.

559
00:21:50,767 --> 00:21:51,567
I'm going to stop you
right there.

560
00:21:51,700 --> 00:21:52,934
Here we go.

561
00:21:53,066 --> 00:21:56,066
My father and his grandfather
and his father had a motto,

562
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,433
which was "Do one thing,
and be the best."

563
00:21:58,567 --> 00:22:00,667
Christmas trees
are my one thing,

564
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,533
and they're my family's legacy,

565
00:22:02,667 --> 00:22:05,767
and it's my job
to keep it that way.

566
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,409
And that's what I'm here
to help you do.

567
00:22:08,433 --> 00:22:09,433
Right.

568
00:22:09,567 --> 00:22:11,867
So let's rush these samples
to the mobile lab.

569
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,200
Thank you so much for the cider,

570
00:22:14,333 --> 00:22:15,100
it was wonderful,

571
00:22:15,233 --> 00:22:16,600
and lovely to meet you.

572
00:22:16,734 --> 00:22:18,867
Yeah, you too.

573
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,633
- Thanks, guys.
- Hey!

574
00:22:20,767 --> 00:22:22,800
Hey, bring her back
for the cocktail thing.

575
00:22:22,934 --> 00:22:24,834
She's not on vacation, Kelly.

576
00:22:24,967 --> 00:22:28,166
Well, after dealing with you,
she'll probably need one.

577
00:22:39,266 --> 00:22:40,500
Good morning.

578
00:22:40,633 --> 00:22:41,367
Hi.

579
00:22:41,500 --> 00:22:42,300
I'm returning...

580
00:22:42,433 --> 00:22:44,233
the pencil I borrowed.

581
00:22:45,300 --> 00:22:46,133
Real smooth, Mom.

582
00:22:46,266 --> 00:22:47,476
I'm assuming
that Elliott told you?

583
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:49,333
Of course not.

584
00:22:49,467 --> 00:22:53,967
Thank you so much
for saving our farm.

585
00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:56,834
Olivia, this power hugger
is my mom, Peggy.

586
00:22:56,967 --> 00:22:58,133
Mom, this is Olivia.

587
00:22:58,266 --> 00:22:59,433
Uh, nice to meet you,

588
00:22:59,567 --> 00:23:02,300
but no need to thank me.

589
00:23:02,433 --> 00:23:04,367
I haven't done anything yet.

590
00:23:04,500 --> 00:23:05,934
But I'm sure you will, though.

591
00:23:06,066 --> 00:23:08,266
How long does
all this testing take?

592
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,567
Unfortunately, it's not
an instant result.

593
00:23:10,700 --> 00:23:13,567
This has to sit for
at least a few more hours.

594
00:23:13,700 --> 00:23:15,600
So you have some time to kill?

595
00:23:15,734 --> 00:23:17,066
I suppose so.

596
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,200
Hmm.

597
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:21,500
Oh. Michel said

598
00:23:21,633 --> 00:23:22,810
my car wouldn't be ready till 6.

599
00:23:22,834 --> 00:23:24,154
I don't want
to be your guys' way,

600
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,867
so if you want
to drop me off at the inn,

601
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,533
I can hang out there
and catch up on paperwork.

602
00:23:28,667 --> 00:23:29,667
Not a problem.

603
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,834
Paperwork? Nonsense.

604
00:23:30,967 --> 00:23:31,967
No.

605
00:23:32,033 --> 00:23:34,066
You're going to come with us
to the cider mill.

606
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,233
Oh, I've been there
already today.

607
00:23:36,367 --> 00:23:37,166
It's fine. You don't have to...

608
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:38,309
Well, didn't you tell her

609
00:23:38,333 --> 00:23:40,033
about the Christmas
cocktail competition?

610
00:23:40,166 --> 00:23:41,800
She's not interested in that,
Mom.

611
00:23:41,934 --> 00:23:46,467
Oh. Or maybe you're just scared
someone new might dethrone you?

612
00:23:48,333 --> 00:23:49,967
I'm not too worried about that.

613
00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:51,643
Probably because
you've never had to compete

614
00:23:51,667 --> 00:23:52,400
against a scientist.

615
00:23:52,533 --> 00:23:53,900
Hmm.

616
00:23:54,033 --> 00:23:55,400
Well, mixology is just

617
00:23:55,533 --> 00:23:57,867
chemistry equations in a glass.

618
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,400
It's all about balance.

619
00:23:59,533 --> 00:24:00,300
Really?

620
00:24:00,433 --> 00:24:01,133
Mm-hmm.

621
00:24:01,266 --> 00:24:03,400
I thought that it was all about

622
00:24:03,533 --> 00:24:06,133
Christmas, apple cider,
and instinct.

623
00:24:06,266 --> 00:24:07,066
Mm...

624
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:08,233
No?

625
00:24:08,367 --> 00:24:09,433
- No.
- Hmm.

626
00:24:10,633 --> 00:24:11,900
Yep. He's scared.

627
00:24:14,834 --> 00:24:15,667
Really?

628
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:16,934
Okay. Let's do this.

629
00:24:29,667 --> 00:24:30,500
Mom, what's going on
with you and Harry?

630
00:24:30,633 --> 00:24:32,734
- Harry?
- Yeah.

631
00:24:32,867 --> 00:24:34,800
Absolutely nothing.

632
00:24:34,934 --> 00:24:37,133
He's just excited
to get a free drink.

633
00:24:37,266 --> 00:24:39,500
Sure.

634
00:24:40,834 --> 00:24:42,867
I am ready.

635
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,834
Me too.

636
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:47,567
Ooh.

637
00:24:48,834 --> 00:24:49,567
Okay.

638
00:24:49,700 --> 00:24:50,867
Everyone ready?

639
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:51,734
- Yes.
- Yes.

640
00:24:51,867 --> 00:24:53,800
Remember, the only rule is

641
00:24:53,934 --> 00:24:55,233
you have to use
some of our cider

642
00:24:55,367 --> 00:24:56,567
in your cocktail.

643
00:24:56,700 --> 00:24:58,533
And... go.

644
00:24:58,667 --> 00:24:59,667
All right.

645
00:24:59,767 --> 00:25:02,066
Wow. It's... scientific.

646
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:03,266
How are the levels?

647
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:04,700
Not telling.

648
00:25:04,834 --> 00:25:07,433
Four generations of Christmas
tree farming, huh?

649
00:25:07,567 --> 00:25:08,433
Yep.

650
00:25:08,567 --> 00:25:10,433
Hey, are you going
to use that mint?

651
00:25:10,567 --> 00:25:11,567
No.

652
00:25:11,633 --> 00:25:13,467
Thank you.

653
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,400
And you never wanted
to do anything else?

654
00:25:15,533 --> 00:25:16,867
Never.

655
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:17,800
Actually, that's not true.

656
00:25:17,934 --> 00:25:18,934
When I was a little kid,

657
00:25:19,033 --> 00:25:21,600
I wanted to be
the next Indiana Jones, but...

658
00:25:21,734 --> 00:25:23,300
once I discovered

659
00:25:23,433 --> 00:25:26,600
that it was less about
really cool action sequences

660
00:25:26,734 --> 00:25:28,734
and more about
sitting alone in a hole

661
00:25:28,867 --> 00:25:31,266
dusting off rocks
with tiny little brushes,

662
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:32,400
I got over that.

663
00:25:35,767 --> 00:25:36,867
How about you?

664
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:37,867
Did you always know that this
would be your calling?

665
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:39,200
Bartending?

666
00:25:39,333 --> 00:25:41,100
Yeah.

667
00:25:41,233 --> 00:25:41,934
Um...

668
00:25:42,066 --> 00:25:43,200
Pull that for me?

669
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:45,767
- There you go.
- Thank you.

670
00:25:47,734 --> 00:25:48,533
I don't know,

671
00:25:48,667 --> 00:25:51,033
I've always felt happiest
in the woods.

672
00:25:51,166 --> 00:25:52,834
I totally get that.

673
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,066
Yeah. Um, yeah, I'm going to...

674
00:25:58,200 --> 00:25:59,367
lime.

675
00:25:59,500 --> 00:26:01,533
You don't like talking much
about yourself, do you?

676
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,266
I'm more of a listener, I guess.

677
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:08,333
Five more minutes.

678
00:26:08,467 --> 00:26:09,767
- Whoa. Okay.
- Okay.

679
00:26:09,900 --> 00:26:10,900
Thank you.

680
00:26:10,934 --> 00:26:12,014
Right. Okay, let's do this.

681
00:26:21,734 --> 00:26:23,400
Oh yeah.

682
00:26:26,100 --> 00:26:27,934
All right.

683
00:26:28,066 --> 00:26:29,333
How's that smell?
Perfect.

684
00:26:29,467 --> 00:26:31,834
Hmm? Hmm?

685
00:26:37,967 --> 00:26:40,100
Okay.
Everybody, gather 'round.

686
00:26:40,233 --> 00:26:41,533
Okay, moment of truth.

687
00:26:44,467 --> 00:26:45,800
Ah, so what's in yours again?

688
00:26:45,934 --> 00:26:49,200
Oh. Well, it's a perfect blend

689
00:26:49,333 --> 00:26:51,533
of cider, bourbon, cinnamon,

690
00:26:51,667 --> 00:26:53,667
lime, and herbs.

691
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,100
Oh.

692
00:26:55,233 --> 00:26:56,233
And...

693
00:26:56,300 --> 00:26:57,700
a few pine needles.

694
00:26:58,900 --> 00:26:59,667
Wait.

695
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:00,976
That wasn't
on the ingredients list.

696
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,567
Technically,
it was on the table,

697
00:27:02,700 --> 00:27:03,900
so I think it's fair game.

698
00:27:04,033 --> 00:27:05,900
Fine.

699
00:27:06,033 --> 00:27:06,867
What's in yours?

700
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,667
Oh, a little bit of this

701
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,367
and then just a bit of that,

702
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:11,543
and it doesn't really matter,

703
00:27:11,567 --> 00:27:13,042
because I just go
by what feels right.

704
00:27:13,066 --> 00:27:14,767
Oh. I just go
by what I know is right.

705
00:27:14,900 --> 00:27:15,900
So...

706
00:27:15,967 --> 00:27:17,767
We'll see how that
plays out for you.

707
00:27:17,900 --> 00:27:18,700
Pretty good strategy.

708
00:27:18,834 --> 00:27:20,200
Hmm, we'll see.

709
00:27:20,333 --> 00:27:21,500
Ahem.

710
00:27:21,633 --> 00:27:22,934
Hmm.

711
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:25,867
Oh, yeah. Wow.

712
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,233
Excuse me, excuse me.

713
00:27:27,367 --> 00:27:29,767
That is awful.

714
00:27:29,900 --> 00:27:31,333
Yeah.

715
00:27:31,467 --> 00:27:32,734
- Come on.
- Truly awful.

716
00:27:32,867 --> 00:27:34,734
Come on.

717
00:27:34,867 --> 00:27:35,900
Is this the cup

718
00:27:36,033 --> 00:27:38,767
everyone poured their
discarded drinks into, or...

719
00:27:38,900 --> 00:27:40,700
It's been a tough year for me.

720
00:27:42,533 --> 00:27:43,967
Listen, you can't
win 'em all, so...

721
00:27:49,066 --> 00:27:50,200
Actually, she can.

722
00:27:50,333 --> 00:27:51,166
We have a winner

723
00:27:51,300 --> 00:27:52,133
of the Christmas
cocktail competition.

724
00:27:52,266 --> 00:27:53,300
Olivia.
Olivia.

725
00:27:54,667 --> 00:27:55,667
- Really?
- Really?

726
00:27:57,367 --> 00:27:59,033
Science for the win!

727
00:28:02,867 --> 00:28:04,066
Thank you. I, uh...

728
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:04,967
I won't let it go to my head.

729
00:28:05,100 --> 00:28:06,100
Good.

730
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:09,834
Yeah.

731
00:28:09,967 --> 00:28:11,076
All right, I need
to try this drink.

732
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:12,100
Let me see here.

733
00:28:14,367 --> 00:28:15,166
Mm. Wow.

734
00:28:15,300 --> 00:28:16,033
That is incredible.

735
00:28:16,166 --> 00:28:17,166
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

736
00:28:17,266 --> 00:28:18,376
What are you going to call it?

737
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:19,934
How about the Evergreen?

738
00:28:21,233 --> 00:28:22,367
It's perfect.

739
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,233
To the Evergreen!

740
00:28:25,367 --> 00:28:27,066
Evergreen!

741
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:28,200
To the Evergreen.

742
00:28:28,333 --> 00:28:29,567
Clink.

743
00:28:30,700 --> 00:28:31,967
That was really impressive.

744
00:28:32,100 --> 00:28:34,633
I just think if you would have
seen the one I made last year,

745
00:28:34,767 --> 00:28:35,943
I think
it could have actually...

746
00:28:35,967 --> 00:28:36,667
Hey.

747
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:37,600
- Hi.
- Hi.

748
00:28:37,734 --> 00:28:40,967
Jack, I just want to thank you

749
00:28:41,100 --> 00:28:41,967
for the business

750
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:44,333
that you've given us
the past couple days.

751
00:28:44,467 --> 00:28:47,100
Well, don't get
used to it, Dwayne.

752
00:28:47,233 --> 00:28:49,066
Olivia, this is Dwayne.

753
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:50,910
He owns the other Christmas
tree lot in town.

754
00:28:50,934 --> 00:28:54,934
Maybe the only one
at the rate you're going, Jack.

755
00:28:55,066 --> 00:28:57,000
Connor's will be fine.

756
00:28:57,133 --> 00:28:57,867
I'll make sure of it.

757
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,700
And... who are you, exactly?

758
00:28:59,834 --> 00:29:01,900
I'm an evergreen expert.

759
00:29:03,633 --> 00:29:05,333
You don't need a tree lady

760
00:29:05,467 --> 00:29:07,800
to tell you
what we already know.

761
00:29:07,934 --> 00:29:09,233
You're done.

762
00:29:09,367 --> 00:29:12,734
Oh, and tell the mayor
I have a 30-foot Scotch pine

763
00:29:12,867 --> 00:29:14,400
if he needs it.

764
00:29:14,533 --> 00:29:16,533
All he has to do is call.

765
00:29:16,667 --> 00:29:17,400
He won't need to.

766
00:29:17,533 --> 00:29:19,500
Good day.

767
00:29:19,633 --> 00:29:20,633
Who is that guy?

768
00:29:20,767 --> 00:29:22,567
Dwayne Colson.

769
00:29:31,033 --> 00:29:32,800
You're hovering.

770
00:29:32,934 --> 00:29:34,166
No, no, I'm just, you know,

771
00:29:34,300 --> 00:29:36,166
decorating the house
for Christmas

772
00:29:36,300 --> 00:29:37,300
in your general vicinity.

773
00:29:37,367 --> 00:29:38,133
Right.

774
00:29:38,266 --> 00:29:39,367
Wow.

775
00:29:44,166 --> 00:29:45,166
Oh no.

776
00:29:45,834 --> 00:29:46,667
Is it broken?

777
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,266
I don't think so.

778
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,343
Well, until we can keep
these needles from falling,

779
00:29:50,367 --> 00:29:51,676
maybe we should
take the ornaments down.

780
00:29:51,700 --> 00:29:53,333
I know I should.

781
00:29:53,467 --> 00:29:54,910
It's just that we've been
putting these up

782
00:29:54,934 --> 00:29:55,734
since the very first year

783
00:29:55,867 --> 00:29:57,633
my family started selling
Christmas trees.

784
00:29:57,767 --> 00:29:59,200
There's one new ornament

785
00:29:59,333 --> 00:30:01,233
for every year
that we've been in business.

786
00:30:01,367 --> 00:30:02,500
It's a tradition.

787
00:30:02,633 --> 00:30:06,200
Every single one of these
has a... special meaning.

788
00:30:06,333 --> 00:30:10,033
This one
is from the year I was born.

789
00:30:10,166 --> 00:30:12,500
27 years ago.

790
00:30:12,633 --> 00:30:16,834
And this one, this is
from World War II.

791
00:30:16,967 --> 00:30:19,033
My grandfather was overseas,

792
00:30:19,166 --> 00:30:22,467
and he sent back some sand
from Normandy.

793
00:30:26,133 --> 00:30:27,934
My family doesn't do
anything like this.

794
00:30:31,166 --> 00:30:32,300
What does your family do?

795
00:30:32,433 --> 00:30:34,700
Every year, my mother
chooses a theme,

796
00:30:34,834 --> 00:30:39,200
and her decorator does the rest.

797
00:30:39,333 --> 00:30:41,367
All that matters
is how it looks,

798
00:30:41,500 --> 00:30:43,266
not what it means.

799
00:30:45,834 --> 00:30:46,914
What was this year's theme?

800
00:30:48,667 --> 00:30:50,600
It was supposed to be
a Christmas wedding.

801
00:30:53,033 --> 00:30:53,734
Uh...

802
00:30:53,867 --> 00:30:55,233
No, no, that's cool.

803
00:30:55,367 --> 00:30:57,200
I mean, whose wedding?

804
00:31:00,567 --> 00:31:01,567
Oh.

805
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,500
I canceled it.

806
00:31:03,633 --> 00:31:04,400
Over the summer.

807
00:31:04,533 --> 00:31:06,166
So...

808
00:31:06,300 --> 00:31:07,500
Right. I'm sorry.

809
00:31:07,633 --> 00:31:09,600
Don't be.

810
00:31:09,734 --> 00:31:12,767
No, you know, we wanted
different things. So...

811
00:31:12,900 --> 00:31:13,900
Right.

812
00:31:14,033 --> 00:31:16,934
Just took you six months
before your wedding

813
00:31:17,066 --> 00:31:18,200
to figure that out?

814
00:31:20,900 --> 00:31:22,133
I knew before then.

815
00:31:23,767 --> 00:31:25,367
Sometimes it takes me
a little bit longer

816
00:31:25,433 --> 00:31:27,100
to say things out loud.

817
00:31:27,233 --> 00:31:28,600
Ah.

818
00:31:28,734 --> 00:31:31,233
One of my quirks.

819
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:34,600
Bless you.

820
00:31:34,734 --> 00:31:36,600
Excuse me.

821
00:31:36,734 --> 00:31:37,567
I hope I'm not getting sick.

822
00:31:37,700 --> 00:31:39,233
That's the last thing I need
right now.

823
00:31:39,367 --> 00:31:41,734
Well, stress does make you
more susceptible to viruses.

824
00:31:41,867 --> 00:31:43,700
Oh, that's great.
I'm doomed.

825
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,367
Wait a minute.

826
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:49,967
Maybe that's
what's going on here.

827
00:31:50,100 --> 00:31:52,200
There could be
a disease in the trunk

828
00:31:52,333 --> 00:31:54,600
that's getting set off
from the stress of being cut.

829
00:31:54,734 --> 00:31:55,734
Like transplant shock?

830
00:31:55,767 --> 00:31:57,533
Kind of. Ugh.

831
00:31:57,667 --> 00:31:58,910
I wish I could see what
was going on in the trunks.

832
00:31:58,934 --> 00:32:01,533
You realize you're telling
the guy who sells cut trees

833
00:32:01,667 --> 00:32:03,800
that the solution might be
to not cut trees.

834
00:32:05,500 --> 00:32:07,033
I'm saying I don't know yet.

835
00:32:07,166 --> 00:32:08,433
I just...

836
00:32:08,567 --> 00:32:09,367
oh!

837
00:32:09,500 --> 00:32:10,500
You know what would help?

838
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,467
To dig up the root ball
with one of the trunks.

839
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:13,600
I could cut it

840
00:32:13,734 --> 00:32:15,376
and watch what happens
over the next few hours

841
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:16,166
in real time.

842
00:32:16,300 --> 00:32:17,033
Yeah, we could do that.

843
00:32:17,166 --> 00:32:18,166
We'll cut it out, and...

844
00:32:19,500 --> 00:32:20,500
It's almost00.

845
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,533
Your car is ready,
and my time is up.

846
00:32:22,667 --> 00:32:24,100
Oh.

847
00:32:24,233 --> 00:32:25,033
Well, I'll stay.

848
00:32:25,166 --> 00:32:26,734
- Really?
- Yeah.

849
00:32:26,867 --> 00:32:29,867
I can stay one more night
and get my car tomorrow.

850
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,800
Well, I appreciate that.

851
00:32:31,934 --> 00:32:32,667
Of course.

852
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:33,633
Even if you're staying

853
00:32:33,767 --> 00:32:35,633
just so you can
avoid your family.

854
00:32:37,900 --> 00:32:39,266
I care what happens to you.

855
00:32:40,934 --> 00:32:42,533
- And... and your farm.
- Right.

856
00:32:42,667 --> 00:32:47,100
And there's no way I'm letting
that Dwayne guy win.

857
00:32:48,734 --> 00:32:53,300
Okay, maybe the home thing,
too...

858
00:32:53,433 --> 00:32:54,166
a little.

859
00:32:54,300 --> 00:32:55,567
I knew it.

860
00:33:01,266 --> 00:33:02,667
All right.

861
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,009
We're lucky
it was warmer this week.

862
00:33:04,033 --> 00:33:05,667
The ground's not too hard.

863
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,433
Yeah.

864
00:33:07,567 --> 00:33:08,567
Oh.

865
00:33:10,233 --> 00:33:12,066
Looks like that's
about to change.

866
00:33:13,633 --> 00:33:17,567
Oh, nothing like a bit
of mood snow at Christmas.

867
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:25,567
Beautiful. Right?

868
00:33:26,967 --> 00:33:27,967
Olivia?

869
00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:30,066
Over here.

870
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,200
Come on.

871
00:33:35,867 --> 00:33:37,533
- Ah...
- What are you doing down here?

872
00:33:46,066 --> 00:33:49,834
This quiet...

873
00:33:49,967 --> 00:33:52,300
under the trees...

874
00:33:52,433 --> 00:33:57,500
it's my favorite thing
in the whole world.

875
00:33:57,633 --> 00:34:02,233
It's like I'm just living
in this exact moment

876
00:34:02,367 --> 00:34:08,300
where everything's perfect
just the way it is.

877
00:34:08,433 --> 00:34:11,133
It's amazing how something
as simple as a tree

878
00:34:11,266 --> 00:34:14,567
can bring people
so much happiness.

879
00:34:16,633 --> 00:34:20,033
That's why I love what I do.

880
00:34:20,166 --> 00:34:20,967
My life's purpose

881
00:34:21,100 --> 00:34:24,667
is to literally bring joy
to families

882
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,100
every Christmas.

883
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,000
If I can't do that anymore...

884
00:34:31,133 --> 00:34:33,166
You don't have to worry, Jack.

885
00:34:34,667 --> 00:34:36,934
I got this.

886
00:34:40,300 --> 00:34:41,133
Hey!

887
00:34:41,266 --> 00:34:42,266
Jack.

888
00:34:44,033 --> 00:34:45,033
Miles.

889
00:34:46,333 --> 00:34:47,333
What are you doing here?

890
00:34:47,433 --> 00:34:48,467
I saw a light

891
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:49,743
and thought someone was
stealing one of your trees

892
00:34:49,767 --> 00:34:50,500
while you're shut down.

893
00:34:50,633 --> 00:34:51,900
Oh. No.

894
00:34:52,033 --> 00:34:52,800
We're just...

895
00:34:52,934 --> 00:34:55,066
doing scientific research.

896
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:56,880
Is that what they're
calling it these days?

897
00:34:56,967 --> 00:34:58,967
No, no. It really was.

898
00:34:59,100 --> 00:35:00,633
Okay.

899
00:35:00,767 --> 00:35:01,776
You two have a good night.

900
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:03,200
Thanks, Miles.

901
00:35:05,367 --> 00:35:06,433
Can you call him tomorrow

902
00:35:06,567 --> 00:35:08,133
and tell him
it was actual science?

903
00:35:08,266 --> 00:35:09,467
Well...

904
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,066
Not all of it.

905
00:35:13,700 --> 00:35:15,667
No, not all of it.

906
00:35:18,533 --> 00:35:20,467
We should, uh...
let's get the...

907
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:21,367
dig up the tree.
Tree. Yeah.

908
00:35:21,500 --> 00:35:22,800
One, two, three.

909
00:35:22,934 --> 00:35:24,734
- Yep. Go.
- Push it. Yeah.

910
00:35:24,867 --> 00:35:25,867
Yeah.

911
00:35:25,900 --> 00:35:28,066
Here we go. One more.

912
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:29,300
Hey, nice.

913
00:35:31,900 --> 00:35:33,233
Grab that. There we go.

914
00:35:33,367 --> 00:35:35,600
Careful, it's a little bit
slippery out here.

915
00:35:35,734 --> 00:35:37,376
Please. I'm a third-generation
New Englander.

916
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:38,800
I'm... I'm good.

917
00:35:41,433 --> 00:35:43,533
Don't... say... a word.

918
00:35:43,667 --> 00:35:44,667
I would never.

919
00:35:44,734 --> 00:35:46,494
I'm a fourth-generation
Connecticutian, so...

920
00:35:47,433 --> 00:35:48,667
Oh!

921
00:35:50,367 --> 00:35:51,233
Don't you dare. Don't you...

922
00:35:51,367 --> 00:35:52,100
Just...

923
00:35:52,233 --> 00:35:52,934
Let's get this inside.

924
00:35:53,066 --> 00:35:54,066
This is humiliating.

925
00:35:55,300 --> 00:35:56,767
There you go.
Watch your step.

926
00:35:56,900 --> 00:35:57,700
How is it out there?

927
00:35:57,834 --> 00:35:59,867
I heard it's like
a skating rink.

928
00:36:00,066 --> 00:36:02,300
Um, didn't notice.

929
00:36:02,433 --> 00:36:03,433
No, not at all.

930
00:36:06,467 --> 00:36:07,533
Hey, I, uh...

931
00:36:07,667 --> 00:36:09,609
I could pick you up
in the morning after breakfast

932
00:36:09,633 --> 00:36:11,309
and we can go get your car
whenever you're ready.

933
00:36:11,333 --> 00:36:12,333
Maybe after 10?

934
00:36:12,433 --> 00:36:13,633
Yeah. That's perfect.

935
00:36:13,767 --> 00:36:15,166
Right. Uh, right here?

936
00:36:15,300 --> 00:36:16,300
Yeah.

937
00:36:17,066 --> 00:36:18,066
There we go.

938
00:36:18,967 --> 00:36:20,300
I'll let you... there you go.

939
00:36:21,767 --> 00:36:22,767
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

940
00:36:22,834 --> 00:36:24,133
Till then, it'll just be

941
00:36:24,266 --> 00:36:25,706
good old-fashioned
scientific method.

942
00:36:25,834 --> 00:36:27,300
Which is...

943
00:36:27,433 --> 00:36:29,509
Sitting next to the tree
and staring at it all night.

944
00:36:29,533 --> 00:36:30,266
Right.

945
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,166
Hope we get the answers.

946
00:36:32,300 --> 00:36:33,767
Hey, we're getting there.

947
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,233
Yeah.

948
00:36:39,834 --> 00:36:42,133
Oh... thanks.

949
00:36:43,767 --> 00:36:44,500
Night.

950
00:36:44,633 --> 00:36:46,233
Good night.

951
00:36:47,533 --> 00:36:50,500
Ho ho ho ho ho!

952
00:36:50,633 --> 00:36:53,000
Thank you for letting me
make my way through here.

953
00:36:53,133 --> 00:36:54,467
How's everybody feeling?

954
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:55,633
This is Lisa the Elf,

955
00:36:55,767 --> 00:36:57,800
and she's
going to be my helper today.

956
00:36:57,934 --> 00:37:00,100
Oh! This is beautiful.

957
00:37:00,233 --> 00:37:01,533
Who made this for you?

958
00:37:01,667 --> 00:37:02,400
My mom.

959
00:37:02,533 --> 00:37:04,600
Oh, it's absolutely wonderful.

960
00:37:04,734 --> 00:37:06,400
I could use her advice shopping.

961
00:37:06,533 --> 00:37:07,333
Good morning.

962
00:37:07,467 --> 00:37:08,467
Hey.

963
00:37:08,533 --> 00:37:09,676
Can I get you some breakfast?

964
00:37:09,700 --> 00:37:10,776
Uh, I'm actually
looking for Jack.

965
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,266
I, uh...
I overslept a little bit.

966
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,166
He's... here.

967
00:37:15,300 --> 00:37:17,066
Oh, it's a very special treat.

968
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,233
Oh, I see, you want a candy
cane.

969
00:37:20,367 --> 00:37:21,509
I'm sure I've got a candy cane.

970
00:37:21,533 --> 00:37:22,853
Someone will get you
a candy cane.

971
00:37:36,367 --> 00:37:37,533
Hi.

972
00:37:37,667 --> 00:37:40,934
So, this is one of the favors
you do for her, huh?

973
00:37:41,066 --> 00:37:42,600
I don't know what you're
talking about.

974
00:37:42,734 --> 00:37:44,000
Oh, I heard Santa was here.

975
00:37:44,133 --> 00:37:45,400
Santa was here?

976
00:37:45,533 --> 00:37:46,533
Yes. And if you hurry,

977
00:37:46,567 --> 00:37:48,009
maybe you can give him
your Christmas list.

978
00:37:48,033 --> 00:37:49,967
Oh, I think he already knows
my Christmas list.

979
00:37:51,433 --> 00:37:52,900
You don't need Santa for that.

980
00:37:53,033 --> 00:37:54,033
You've got me.

981
00:37:55,433 --> 00:37:56,233
Yeah.

982
00:37:56,367 --> 00:37:58,066
So, how was it looking
overnight?

983
00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:59,509
You know what to do?
I know what's next.

984
00:37:59,533 --> 00:38:01,166
I feel like
when you're vague like that

985
00:38:01,300 --> 00:38:02,980
it's because you're holding
something back.

986
00:38:03,033 --> 00:38:04,266
I'm not. There's just no point

987
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,066
in getting your hopes up,
or down,

988
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:07,200
until I know for sure.

989
00:38:07,233 --> 00:38:08,667
And when will that be?

990
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,200
After I pick up my car

991
00:38:10,333 --> 00:38:12,767
and bring the samples
back to the lab on campus.

992
00:38:12,900 --> 00:38:15,300
My equipment is good,
but the lab is the best.

993
00:38:15,433 --> 00:38:16,166
Right.

994
00:38:16,300 --> 00:38:17,066
Sorry.

995
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,734
You're too tired to drive.

996
00:38:18,867 --> 00:38:20,233
Why don't I take you?

997
00:38:20,367 --> 00:38:21,567
Are you sure you have time?

998
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:23,420
Yeah. I mean, until
we get this figured out,

999
00:38:23,533 --> 00:38:25,066
I've got nothing but time.

1000
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,100
Okay.

1001
00:38:37,233 --> 00:38:38,800
All the tests
are up and running.

1002
00:38:38,934 --> 00:38:42,667
Now I just need to make sure
I didn't forget anything.

1003
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,000
Don't touch that!

1004
00:38:44,133 --> 00:38:45,500
No, I'm not.

1005
00:38:45,633 --> 00:38:48,333
I just want to take a look
at my master checklist.

1006
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:55,934
Yes.

1007
00:38:56,066 --> 00:38:57,967
What is all this?

1008
00:39:01,533 --> 00:39:03,333
Oh no.

1009
00:39:03,467 --> 00:39:05,133
I thought we canceled the order.

1010
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,040
That's a lot of mistletoe.

1011
00:39:08,100 --> 00:39:10,734
They were my wedding favors.

1012
00:39:10,867 --> 00:39:12,500
That must have cost a fortune.

1013
00:39:12,633 --> 00:39:14,100
Oh yeah, they did.

1014
00:39:15,467 --> 00:39:16,333
I would've been happy

1015
00:39:16,467 --> 00:39:18,000
giving everyone
a bag of candy almonds.

1016
00:39:18,133 --> 00:39:18,967
Why didn't you say something?

1017
00:39:19,100 --> 00:39:21,533
Because this wasn't even

1018
00:39:21,667 --> 00:39:24,166
in the top 100 things
I needed to say to him.

1019
00:39:24,300 --> 00:39:27,300
So what are you
going to do with them now?

1020
00:39:32,667 --> 00:39:34,734
Why don't you sell them
at the craft fair?

1021
00:39:34,867 --> 00:39:36,467
We can donate
the proceeds to charity.

1022
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:37,333
Really?

1023
00:39:37,467 --> 00:39:38,567
Yeah.

1024
00:39:38,700 --> 00:39:40,367
I love that idea.

1025
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:42,533
Especially since I usually
donate Christmas trees

1026
00:39:42,667 --> 00:39:43,667
to families in need,

1027
00:39:43,700 --> 00:39:44,734
and this way,

1028
00:39:44,867 --> 00:39:46,867
we can help them buy a tree
from somewhere else.

1029
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,066
Are you sure
you're okay with that?

1030
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:50,800
Yeah. Of course.

1031
00:39:50,934 --> 00:39:53,266
I mean, my problem
shouldn't become theirs,

1032
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,367
and for them, it's not just
about the tree.

1033
00:39:55,500 --> 00:39:57,033
It's...

1034
00:39:57,166 --> 00:39:58,486
it's about
what happens around it.

1035
00:40:05,433 --> 00:40:06,166
Uh, okay.

1036
00:40:06,300 --> 00:40:08,066
So we're good here.

1037
00:40:09,700 --> 00:40:12,166
All we have to do now is wait.

1038
00:40:12,300 --> 00:40:14,200
Great. For how long?

1039
00:40:14,333 --> 00:40:16,133
Uh, about ten hours.

1040
00:40:16,266 --> 00:40:18,633
Ten hours?

1041
00:40:18,767 --> 00:40:20,300
Give or take.

1042
00:40:24,100 --> 00:40:25,176
I feel like this is going to be

1043
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:26,443
the longest ten hours
of my life.

1044
00:40:26,467 --> 00:40:27,943
Well, you know,
we don't have to stay that long.

1045
00:40:27,967 --> 00:40:28,967
Everything's automated,

1046
00:40:29,100 --> 00:40:30,533
so once it's done,

1047
00:40:30,667 --> 00:40:32,142
the results
will upload to the server,

1048
00:40:32,166 --> 00:40:33,700
and I can read them
from anywhere.

1049
00:40:33,834 --> 00:40:34,834
Yeah.

1050
00:40:34,934 --> 00:40:37,667
I just feel like I'm going
to go nuts waiting.

1051
00:40:40,533 --> 00:40:43,900
Some of these things look
like they could maybe be fun?

1052
00:40:44,033 --> 00:40:47,133
They are fun, and thank you.

1053
00:40:47,266 --> 00:40:48,867
Don't thank me yet.

1054
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,567
It's going to be fun.

1055
00:40:59,233 --> 00:41:00,934
Come on in.

1056
00:41:08,433 --> 00:41:10,934
Um, you know, why don't we
take this spot here?

1057
00:41:11,066 --> 00:41:12,066
So what we're going to...

1058
00:41:12,133 --> 00:41:15,533
Oh, uh, Lisa, do we have
any gingerbread trees?

1059
00:41:15,667 --> 00:41:17,700
Oh, I couldn't find
the cookie cutter for that,

1060
00:41:17,834 --> 00:41:20,667
but if you want trees
made out of Santa hats,

1061
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:21,633
I'm your gal.

1062
00:41:21,767 --> 00:41:22,500
How are you at baking?

1063
00:41:22,633 --> 00:41:24,166
Terrible.

1064
00:41:24,300 --> 00:41:25,767
Me too.

1065
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:26,700
Well, no trees for us, then.

1066
00:41:26,834 --> 00:41:29,133
I will not stand for such irony.

1067
00:41:29,266 --> 00:41:30,266
Come on.

1068
00:41:38,767 --> 00:41:40,100
That is brilliant.

1069
00:41:40,233 --> 00:41:41,667
- I mean, right?
- Brilliant.

1070
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:42,976
All right, I'm going to need...

1071
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,467
Uh, we had no choice.

1072
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,000
I feel like you did.

1073
00:41:51,333 --> 00:41:52,333
Yeah.

1074
00:41:56,133 --> 00:41:57,333
Oh no.

1075
00:41:57,467 --> 00:41:59,100
There aren't any more
gingerbread houses.

1076
00:41:59,233 --> 00:42:01,266
Oh. Hey, let's make
a gingerbread version

1077
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:02,166
of your Christmas tree lot.

1078
00:42:02,300 --> 00:42:03,767
- That's a great idea.
- Right?

1079
00:42:05,467 --> 00:42:06,700
This way...

1080
00:42:12,967 --> 00:42:15,767
Those results
can't come fast enough.

1081
00:42:15,900 --> 00:42:19,233
You know, Jack, this
might not be a quick fix.

1082
00:42:19,367 --> 00:42:22,667
If you can't open
your lot again this year...

1083
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,200
Then I'm going to have
to email all my loyal customers

1084
00:42:26,333 --> 00:42:27,776
and tell them to get a tree
from someplace else.

1085
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,734
Not Dwayne, though. Please?

1086
00:42:29,867 --> 00:42:31,476
Well, there's nothing
I can do about that.

1087
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:33,109
I just hope they come back
again next year.

1088
00:42:33,133 --> 00:42:35,500
If there's something
for them to come back for.

1089
00:42:35,633 --> 00:42:36,734
Yes, and that's my goal,

1090
00:42:36,867 --> 00:42:40,233
to be up and running next year
at the very latest,

1091
00:42:40,367 --> 00:42:43,400
but if that doesn't happen,
I just...

1092
00:42:43,533 --> 00:42:45,543
I just want to make sure that,
you know, you'll be okay.

1093
00:42:45,567 --> 00:42:48,333
I mean, we can cover
one bad year,

1094
00:42:48,467 --> 00:42:50,233
but if all of the trees
are diseased,

1095
00:42:50,367 --> 00:42:52,333
then I don't know
what I'm going to do.

1096
00:42:52,467 --> 00:42:54,734
Which is why I suggested

1097
00:42:54,867 --> 00:42:56,343
having different crops
to harvest year-round.

1098
00:42:56,367 --> 00:42:57,676
Olivia, I don't want
to talk about this.

1099
00:42:57,700 --> 00:42:58,980
Hey, it doesn't have
to be fruit.

1100
00:42:59,033 --> 00:43:01,009
The soil's great for ornamental
plants, for shrubs...

1101
00:43:01,033 --> 00:43:03,567
I mean, like, you know...

1102
00:43:03,700 --> 00:43:06,000
little... shrubs...

1103
00:43:06,133 --> 00:43:08,700
Yeah, okay, and what
kind of shrub is a pink shrub?

1104
00:43:08,834 --> 00:43:10,967
Azaleas, obviously.

1105
00:43:11,100 --> 00:43:12,100
Mm, mm-hmm.

1106
00:43:12,133 --> 00:43:13,773
No, I think I'm going
to stick with trees.

1107
00:43:16,066 --> 00:43:19,133
You know, azaleas
bring people joy, too.

1108
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,910
The point is that
diversifying would just mean

1109
00:43:22,934 --> 00:43:24,443
that you wouldn't be
so dependent on Christmas

1110
00:43:24,467 --> 00:43:25,734
to survive.

1111
00:43:25,867 --> 00:43:28,667
My dad would look at all
those farms that did it all,

1112
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:29,834
and he would say,

1113
00:43:29,967 --> 00:43:34,066
"Jack of all trades,
master of none."

1114
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:35,209
He would be
so disappointed in me

1115
00:43:35,233 --> 00:43:37,300
if I changed all that now.

1116
00:43:37,433 --> 00:43:40,567
I get it. Being named Jack
doesn't really help me here.

1117
00:43:40,700 --> 00:43:42,620
But at least you'd have
something to fall back on

1118
00:43:42,700 --> 00:43:43,860
when things like this happen.

1119
00:43:43,900 --> 00:43:45,967
Okay.

1120
00:43:46,100 --> 00:43:47,500
So you're an expert
on evergreens.

1121
00:43:47,633 --> 00:43:48,500
But what if I told you

1122
00:43:48,633 --> 00:43:51,300
you also had to be
an expert on roses

1123
00:43:51,433 --> 00:43:53,800
or... mangoes?

1124
00:43:53,934 --> 00:43:56,266
They don't grow mangoes
in Connecticut.

1125
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,934
You know what I mean.

1126
00:43:59,066 --> 00:44:01,767
Yeah, I... I get it.

1127
00:44:01,900 --> 00:44:04,200
Sorry I brought it up.

1128
00:44:04,333 --> 00:44:05,066
Forget I said anything.

1129
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:06,633
Oh.

1130
00:44:08,166 --> 00:44:09,433
Well, that's a sign.

1131
00:44:09,567 --> 00:44:10,767
It's... it's a cookie.

1132
00:44:10,900 --> 00:44:12,066
You know what?

1133
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,240
Maybe it's time for us
to move on to something else.

1134
00:44:21,300 --> 00:44:23,633
Wow, that is impressive.

1135
00:44:23,767 --> 00:44:24,467
Thank you.

1136
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,200
You really are a natural.

1137
00:44:27,333 --> 00:44:28,066
Who knew?

1138
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:29,934
I kind of had a feeling.

1139
00:44:31,300 --> 00:44:32,667
Oh, and...

1140
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:33,533
hmm?

1141
00:44:33,667 --> 00:44:35,000
Love it.

1142
00:44:37,900 --> 00:44:38,900
Right?

1143
00:44:44,033 --> 00:44:44,800
See?

1144
00:44:44,934 --> 00:44:45,967
Wasn't so bad, was it?

1145
00:44:46,100 --> 00:44:47,834
It was wonderful.

1146
00:44:47,967 --> 00:44:49,266
Yeah.

1147
00:44:52,834 --> 00:44:53,633
I'm not going to get you.

1148
00:44:53,767 --> 00:44:54,633
- Okay, okay.
- Hold it tight.

1149
00:44:54,767 --> 00:44:56,467
I should've learned my lesson
last time.

1150
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:57,633
And... whssht!

1151
00:44:57,767 --> 00:44:59,276
- See? I told you.
- See, I got you again.

1152
00:44:59,300 --> 00:45:00,976
And I don't get the thing
about the empty presents.

1153
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,042
It's like an empty promise.

1154
00:45:02,066 --> 00:45:02,867
I mean...

1155
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,934
Oh, man.

1156
00:45:05,066 --> 00:45:06,467
What is it?

1157
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:07,910
The mayor's
going to be here any minute,

1158
00:45:07,934 --> 00:45:09,533
and he's going to ask
for an update

1159
00:45:09,667 --> 00:45:11,767
on the Christmas Eve tree.

1160
00:45:11,900 --> 00:45:14,200
Can you check to see
if there are any results?

1161
00:45:14,333 --> 00:45:17,700
Because I could really use
some good news right now.

1162
00:45:17,834 --> 00:45:18,967
Sorry, nothing yet.

1163
00:45:20,166 --> 00:45:20,867
Great.

1164
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:21,734
I've been meaning to ask you,

1165
00:45:21,867 --> 00:45:22,867
why does the town wait

1166
00:45:22,900 --> 00:45:24,140
all the way until Christmas Eve

1167
00:45:24,166 --> 00:45:26,367
to light the tree?

1168
00:45:26,500 --> 00:45:28,800
The very first year
Connor's opened for business,

1169
00:45:28,934 --> 00:45:31,633
there was this huge storm
on Christmas Eve,

1170
00:45:31,767 --> 00:45:33,343
and all the power
went out all over town,

1171
00:45:33,367 --> 00:45:35,633
except for the square,

1172
00:45:35,767 --> 00:45:39,200
so my great-grandfather
got the biggest tree we had

1173
00:45:39,333 --> 00:45:40,333
and brought it down,

1174
00:45:40,467 --> 00:45:42,700
and people
from all over town came,

1175
00:45:42,834 --> 00:45:44,734
and they decorated it

1176
00:45:44,867 --> 00:45:49,066
with lights and ornaments,
and...

1177
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,533
that's when it stopped
being a Connor tree

1178
00:45:51,667 --> 00:45:54,133
and became everyone's tree.

1179
00:45:54,266 --> 00:45:56,033
And then from that day forward,

1180
00:45:56,166 --> 00:45:57,806
that just became
a Christmas Eve tradition

1181
00:45:57,900 --> 00:45:58,900
to light the tree.

1182
00:45:58,934 --> 00:46:01,700
No wonder it means
everything to you.

1183
00:46:01,834 --> 00:46:03,166
It does.

1184
00:46:03,300 --> 00:46:04,667
Hey, the barn looks great, Jack.

1185
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,000
Hey, thanks.

1186
00:46:06,133 --> 00:46:08,700
But I see that the tree lot's
still closed for business.

1187
00:46:08,834 --> 00:46:10,066
Yeah. Well, you know what?

1188
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,734
We're coming up
with a really good solution.

1189
00:46:12,867 --> 00:46:13,934
This is Olivia.

1190
00:46:14,066 --> 00:46:17,233
She is UConn's chief
evergreen horticulturalist.

1191
00:46:17,367 --> 00:46:18,133
Hello.

1192
00:46:18,266 --> 00:46:19,600
Nice to meet you.

1193
00:46:19,734 --> 00:46:21,476
The thing is, that tree
has to be in place by Tuesday

1194
00:46:21,500 --> 00:46:23,000
so we have time to decorate.

1195
00:46:23,133 --> 00:46:24,200
Okay, great.

1196
00:46:24,333 --> 00:46:25,543
Well, we've got three days,
and that should be fine.

1197
00:46:25,567 --> 00:46:29,400
I'm sorry, but because
we're getting extra press

1198
00:46:29,533 --> 00:46:30,643
for the hundredth
annual lighting,

1199
00:46:30,667 --> 00:46:32,767
we can't risk waiting
until the last minute.

1200
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:37,633
That's why I came down
in person.

1201
00:46:37,767 --> 00:46:40,200
I've decided to go with
Dwayne Colson's tree instead.

1202
00:46:44,734 --> 00:46:47,166
Listen, we started the tradition

1203
00:46:47,300 --> 00:46:48,967
of lighting the tree
on Christmas Eve,

1204
00:46:49,100 --> 00:46:51,400
and I have never asked
for anything in return.

1205
00:46:51,533 --> 00:46:52,533
Just this once,

1206
00:46:52,667 --> 00:46:54,800
I'm asking if you
can wait until Tuesday,

1207
00:46:54,934 --> 00:46:56,276
and if the tree's
not in good shape,

1208
00:46:56,300 --> 00:46:58,600
you can go with Dwayne Colson,
and I wouldn't blame you.

1209
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:01,867
All right.

1210
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,100
Three days, Jack.

1211
00:47:03,233 --> 00:47:04,700
Thank you.

1212
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:09,000
We can do that, right?

1213
00:47:09,133 --> 00:47:10,967
Three days is enough time?

1214
00:47:16,367 --> 00:47:18,467
Oh, it's just my mom.

1215
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:19,734
Hi, Mom.

1216
00:47:19,867 --> 00:47:20,734
Hi, Olivia.

1217
00:47:20,867 --> 00:47:21,633
I was going to call you.

1218
00:47:21,767 --> 00:47:22,767
This job in Avon's

1219
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:24,242
taking a little longer
than I thought.

1220
00:47:24,266 --> 00:47:26,734
It is really starting to seem
that you're avoiding us.

1221
00:47:26,867 --> 00:47:28,200
I've... just been busy.

1222
00:47:28,333 --> 00:47:30,567
Well, I made
a nail appointment for you

1223
00:47:30,700 --> 00:47:33,333
because I know how much
you just hate

1224
00:47:33,467 --> 00:47:34,900
all that dirt
under there from work.

1225
00:47:35,033 --> 00:47:37,867
I'm... fine with it.

1226
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,609
Uh, listen, Mom.
I've got to get back to work.

1227
00:47:39,633 --> 00:47:41,066
I'll be home as soon as I can.

1228
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:42,700
Okay? Love you. Bye.

1229
00:47:44,133 --> 00:47:45,900
Oh. This is it.

1230
00:47:46,033 --> 00:47:47,133
The lab results.

1231
00:47:47,266 --> 00:47:48,567
What does it say?

1232
00:47:51,767 --> 00:47:52,887
The tests haven't identified

1233
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,967
any common diseases
or pathogens,

1234
00:47:55,100 --> 00:47:58,533
and now we've ruled out
environmental contaminants.

1235
00:47:58,667 --> 00:48:00,233
Okay, so what does that mean?

1236
00:48:00,367 --> 00:48:01,233
There's nothing we can do?

1237
00:48:01,367 --> 00:48:02,367
We're going to have to do

1238
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:03,900
a full genetic sequencing
of the DNA

1239
00:48:04,033 --> 00:48:05,033
to get our answer.

1240
00:48:05,066 --> 00:48:05,900
We will get the answer,

1241
00:48:06,033 --> 00:48:08,400
but that's going
to take a few...

1242
00:48:08,533 --> 00:48:10,900
Days? That's okay.

1243
00:48:12,433 --> 00:48:13,200
Weeks.

1244
00:48:13,333 --> 00:48:15,133
Weeks?

1245
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:18,233
Jack, I'm so sorry.

1246
00:48:18,367 --> 00:48:19,100
I really wish
there was a faster way.

1247
00:48:19,233 --> 00:48:21,266
Okay, so what does that mean

1248
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,360
for my trees that are
in the ground for this year,

1249
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:24,640
and the big Christmas Eve tree?

1250
00:48:29,033 --> 00:48:30,343
See, this is where
you're supposed to say,

1251
00:48:30,367 --> 00:48:31,800
"Don't worry, Jack.

1252
00:48:31,934 --> 00:48:34,734
I know how to save
this year's trees."

1253
00:48:34,867 --> 00:48:35,700
Don't worry, Jack.

1254
00:48:35,834 --> 00:48:38,467
I know how to save
this year's trees.

1255
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:40,100
Olivia, I just really need you

1256
00:48:40,233 --> 00:48:43,767
to tell me
what you're really thinking.

1257
00:48:43,900 --> 00:48:45,166
Please.

1258
00:48:48,300 --> 00:48:50,900
I'm worried.

1259
00:48:51,033 --> 00:48:53,100
Because right now,

1260
00:48:53,233 --> 00:48:54,567
I don't know how to save them.

1261
00:48:54,700 --> 00:48:57,033
Hey.

1262
00:48:57,166 --> 00:49:00,633
If anyone can figure it out,
it's you,

1263
00:49:00,767 --> 00:49:02,934
and there's no one else
I'd rather have in my corner.

1264
00:49:06,066 --> 00:49:07,567
Thank you, Jack.

1265
00:49:09,633 --> 00:49:11,767
Okay, I'm going to go
do some more research.

1266
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:22,467
What's going on?

1267
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,800
Oh, uh... it doesn't look good.

1268
00:49:24,934 --> 00:49:28,433
I'd say it's looking
pretty great.

1269
00:49:28,567 --> 00:49:31,500
I'm talking about the trees.

1270
00:49:31,633 --> 00:49:32,943
For the first time
in a hundred years,

1271
00:49:32,967 --> 00:49:34,667
there might not be
a Connor family tree

1272
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:35,834
in the town square.

1273
00:49:35,967 --> 00:49:36,767
But for the first time

1274
00:49:36,900 --> 00:49:39,367
in what seems like
a thousand years,

1275
00:49:39,500 --> 00:49:42,867
you have a chance at love.

1276
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:45,667
It's not the right time, Lisa.

1277
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,633
It's never the right time
for you, Jack.

1278
00:49:48,767 --> 00:49:50,600
It's okay to care
about your trees

1279
00:49:50,734 --> 00:49:51,934
and your legacy and your farm,

1280
00:49:52,066 --> 00:49:55,433
but that can't be
the only thing you care about...

1281
00:49:55,567 --> 00:49:58,567
especially now that you've met
someone like Olivia.

1282
00:50:28,266 --> 00:50:29,800
Morning.

1283
00:50:29,934 --> 00:50:31,000
Hey. Good morning.

1284
00:50:31,133 --> 00:50:31,967
What have you got there?

1285
00:50:32,100 --> 00:50:35,166
Oh, I got my car,
drove to UConn,

1286
00:50:35,300 --> 00:50:36,767
raided the supply room
at the lab,

1287
00:50:36,900 --> 00:50:37,940
and got everything I need.

1288
00:50:37,967 --> 00:50:39,200
I think I found a way

1289
00:50:39,333 --> 00:50:41,433
to keep this year's trees alive

1290
00:50:41,567 --> 00:50:43,333
for a week or so
after getting cut.

1291
00:50:43,467 --> 00:50:44,533
Come on.

1292
00:50:44,667 --> 00:50:45,367
I knew you could do it.

1293
00:50:45,500 --> 00:50:47,266
It's a temporary fix,

1294
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,633
and I'm not done yet,

1295
00:50:49,767 --> 00:50:51,367
but if I'm right,

1296
00:50:51,500 --> 00:50:53,467
between this and the DNA work,

1297
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,967
by next year, it'll be like
none of this ever happened.

1298
00:50:57,100 --> 00:50:59,033
Well, except for the part
where I met you,

1299
00:50:59,166 --> 00:51:02,166
because I could
do that again in a heartbeat.

1300
00:51:02,300 --> 00:51:04,000
Me too.

1301
00:51:06,333 --> 00:51:07,333
Okay, so what's the plan?

1302
00:51:07,467 --> 00:51:08,934
Okay.

1303
00:51:09,066 --> 00:51:11,066
So whatever's going on

1304
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,533
is getting triggered
by the tree getting cut

1305
00:51:13,667 --> 00:51:16,333
and losing vital nutrients
from the soil, right?

1306
00:51:16,467 --> 00:51:19,567
So I created
a highly concentrated formula

1307
00:51:19,700 --> 00:51:22,200
to add to your trees' water
after they're cut.

1308
00:51:22,333 --> 00:51:24,734
You just give it to
your customers for the trees.

1309
00:51:24,867 --> 00:51:26,443
Kind of like the package
you put in vases

1310
00:51:26,467 --> 00:51:27,333
when you buy flowers.

1311
00:51:27,467 --> 00:51:29,533
Except this has to be calibrated

1312
00:51:29,667 --> 00:51:32,233
to dissolve evenly over time...

1313
00:51:32,367 --> 00:51:33,676
like an
extended-release medicine.

1314
00:51:33,700 --> 00:51:34,700
Huh.

1315
00:51:34,834 --> 00:51:36,433
Now I just have to figure out

1316
00:51:36,567 --> 00:51:38,400
how to create a solid base
for the formula.

1317
00:51:38,533 --> 00:51:40,266
Wow.

1318
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,567
Wouldn't that be easier
to do in your lab?

1319
00:51:42,700 --> 00:51:45,233
Yeah, but, you know,

1320
00:51:45,367 --> 00:51:47,767
it's convenient to be here
to test it on the trees.

1321
00:51:47,900 --> 00:51:49,533
- Right.
- And...

1322
00:51:51,533 --> 00:51:52,934
but, you know, you're right.

1323
00:51:53,066 --> 00:51:54,266
I'll go back to the lab.

1324
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:55,500
It's, um... it's...

1325
00:51:55,633 --> 00:51:57,033
- No, no, no.
- Probably better.

1326
00:51:57,166 --> 00:51:58,943
You can totally do it here.
You can do it in the house.

1327
00:51:58,967 --> 00:52:00,776
The truth is, most of this
is too messy to do in the house.

1328
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:01,800
What about the barn?

1329
00:52:03,533 --> 00:52:04,573
What about the craft fair?

1330
00:52:06,266 --> 00:52:08,386
The craft fair doesn't have
to take up the whole barn.

1331
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:11,967
Wait a minute.

1332
00:52:12,100 --> 00:52:14,433
Why not move part
of the craft fair outside?

1333
00:52:14,567 --> 00:52:16,327
You could have a whole,
like, outdoor section

1334
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:19,000
decorated with the lights
and wreaths.

1335
00:52:19,133 --> 00:52:20,533
Everyone would be
outside in nature,

1336
00:52:20,567 --> 00:52:21,967
really feeling
the Christmas spirit.

1337
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:24,900
Sort of like you are right now.

1338
00:52:26,467 --> 00:52:27,500
I guess I am.

1339
00:52:29,433 --> 00:52:32,100
But I don't know how you'd get
all that together so quickly.

1340
00:52:32,233 --> 00:52:33,233
Oh, easy-peasy.

1341
00:52:33,300 --> 00:52:34,300
I'll get my mom on it.

1342
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:35,166
It'll be done within the hour.

1343
00:52:35,300 --> 00:52:36,166
Really?

1344
00:52:36,300 --> 00:52:37,300
Yeah.

1345
00:52:37,433 --> 00:52:39,009
It's the best part about
living in a small community.

1346
00:52:39,033 --> 00:52:41,600
We're all here
to help one another.

1347
00:52:41,734 --> 00:52:43,900
I really think this is it, Jack.

1348
00:52:44,033 --> 00:52:45,734
I really think so too.

1349
00:53:01,033 --> 00:53:02,533
Guys, this is beautiful.

1350
00:53:02,667 --> 00:53:03,367
I love it.

1351
00:53:03,500 --> 00:53:04,500
Hey, how are you?

1352
00:53:06,266 --> 00:53:08,834
Oh, mm, smells so good.

1353
00:53:08,967 --> 00:53:09,734
Oh.

1354
00:53:09,867 --> 00:53:12,500
Mom, this is amazing.

1355
00:53:12,633 --> 00:53:15,567
Oh, thank you so much
for rallying the troops. Wow.

1356
00:53:15,700 --> 00:53:17,400
Are you kidding?

1357
00:53:17,533 --> 00:53:19,667
These people were lined up
waiting to help.

1358
00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:20,910
You should do this every year.

1359
00:53:20,934 --> 00:53:24,367
You know, this was actually
Olivia's idea.

1360
00:53:24,500 --> 00:53:25,367
We're lucky she's here.

1361
00:53:25,500 --> 00:53:26,940
Well, luck has nothing
to do with it.

1362
00:53:28,033 --> 00:53:29,367
It's fate.

1363
00:53:29,500 --> 00:53:31,800
I don't know about that.
She's here to do a job, Mom.

1364
00:53:31,934 --> 00:53:34,834
You think this is
really about her job?

1365
00:53:34,967 --> 00:53:37,066
Oh, no.

1366
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:38,967
It's all about you now, Jack.

1367
00:53:39,100 --> 00:53:39,834
- No.
- Yeah.

1368
00:53:39,967 --> 00:53:41,567
Harry!

1369
00:53:56,867 --> 00:53:58,066
I should really keep working.

1370
00:53:58,200 --> 00:53:59,967
Right. Well, I think

1371
00:54:00,166 --> 00:54:01,700
you should
give your brain a break.

1372
00:54:03,867 --> 00:54:05,333
Come.

1373
00:54:10,700 --> 00:54:13,266
Oh, my goodness.

1374
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:14,400
This looks incredible.

1375
00:54:14,500 --> 00:54:15,500
Right?

1376
00:54:15,533 --> 00:54:18,967
And this is all
thanks to your idea.

1377
00:54:23,133 --> 00:54:24,133
Come on.

1378
00:54:24,166 --> 00:54:26,266
Let's take a little stroll
together.

1379
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,433
Harry, you know
I adore you, right?

1380
00:54:29,567 --> 00:54:31,567
But ever since Stanley died,

1381
00:54:31,700 --> 00:54:37,100
I just never saw myself
strolling with anyone else.

1382
00:54:37,233 --> 00:54:39,633
Me neither, but, you know,

1383
00:54:39,767 --> 00:54:41,734
we can either choose
to embrace the future

1384
00:54:41,867 --> 00:54:43,233
or resist it,

1385
00:54:43,367 --> 00:54:46,200
and... I pick embrace.

1386
00:54:47,100 --> 00:54:48,100
Come on.

1387
00:54:50,100 --> 00:54:51,100
All right.

1388
00:54:57,300 --> 00:54:59,633
They are adorable.

1389
00:54:59,767 --> 00:55:00,767
Yeah.

1390
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,834
Hey, are you okay
with your mom...

1391
00:55:03,967 --> 00:55:05,109
Yeah. No, I mean,
you know what?

1392
00:55:05,133 --> 00:55:06,667
My dad's been gone a while,

1393
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:08,200
and she deserves to be happy.

1394
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:11,680
Your mom's pretty lucky
if she found that twice.

1395
00:55:13,767 --> 00:55:15,167
Some people don't even
find it once.

1396
00:55:20,133 --> 00:55:20,934
Hey.

1397
00:55:21,066 --> 00:55:23,233
Let's go for a walk.

1398
00:55:33,500 --> 00:55:35,033
Sorry. I've got sap on my hands.

1399
00:55:35,166 --> 00:55:36,166
Oh.

1400
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:38,000
Wait!

1401
00:55:38,133 --> 00:55:41,600
Jack, this is the answer
I've been looking for.

1402
00:55:41,734 --> 00:55:43,894
This is what we can use
to bond the nutrients together.

1403
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:45,910
Let's go!
I want to see if it works.

1404
00:55:45,934 --> 00:55:47,066
Okay.

1405
00:56:06,467 --> 00:56:08,400
Hey.

1406
00:56:08,533 --> 00:56:10,834
- This is it?
- I think so.

1407
00:56:10,967 --> 00:56:13,300
All we need now
is a tree to test it on.

1408
00:56:13,433 --> 00:56:15,734
Well, I've got plenty of those.

1409
00:56:15,867 --> 00:56:17,133
Let's go.

1410
00:56:18,734 --> 00:56:19,600
This is it.

1411
00:56:19,734 --> 00:56:22,100
Yeah.

1412
00:56:28,066 --> 00:56:29,567
Okay.

1413
00:56:30,467 --> 00:56:32,433
Well, I guess I'll drive you
back to the inn.

1414
00:56:32,567 --> 00:56:34,233
Are you kidding?

1415
00:56:34,367 --> 00:56:35,533
I'm not going anywhere.

1416
00:56:35,667 --> 00:56:38,233
Well, then, I guess...

1417
00:56:38,367 --> 00:56:40,266
you should get comfortable.

1418
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:42,400
Thank you.

1419
00:56:45,467 --> 00:56:46,734
You don't have to stay up.

1420
00:56:46,867 --> 00:56:48,800
Of course I do.

1421
00:56:48,934 --> 00:56:50,014
I want to see what happens.

1422
00:57:05,133 --> 00:57:05,867
- Morning.
- Morning.

1423
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:09,300
Uh, check on the tree.

1424
00:57:09,433 --> 00:57:11,000
Yeah.

1425
00:57:15,166 --> 00:57:16,734
Hey, not bad.

1426
00:57:18,367 --> 00:57:19,476
- Good morning.
- Good morning.

1427
00:57:19,500 --> 00:57:21,066
We brought some breakfast.

1428
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:22,633
Oh, thank you.

1429
00:57:24,767 --> 00:57:26,367
So, did it work?

1430
00:57:26,500 --> 00:57:27,333
We're not going to know for sure

1431
00:57:27,467 --> 00:57:28,333
until later tonight.

1432
00:57:28,467 --> 00:57:30,967
Oh, it seems like
a lot of waiting around.

1433
00:57:31,100 --> 00:57:33,166
Well, nature does not hurry,

1434
00:57:33,300 --> 00:57:35,367
but everything is accomplished.

1435
00:57:35,500 --> 00:57:37,367
That's beautiful.

1436
00:57:37,500 --> 00:57:38,500
Did you make that up?

1437
00:57:38,633 --> 00:57:40,900
Yeah.

1438
00:57:41,033 --> 00:57:42,367
Wow, that's incredible.

1439
00:57:42,500 --> 00:57:46,066
It's very similar to Lao Tzu

1440
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:47,500
from 5,000 years ago.

1441
00:57:47,633 --> 00:57:49,633
Yes. Do you study
Chinese philosophy?

1442
00:57:49,767 --> 00:57:51,834
A little, yeah. Yeah.

1443
00:57:51,967 --> 00:57:53,527
Also, it was on a poster
in your office.

1444
00:57:54,533 --> 00:57:55,533
Busted!

1445
00:57:58,934 --> 00:58:00,734
Good morning!

1446
00:58:00,867 --> 00:58:02,600
Squeeze in.

1447
00:58:02,734 --> 00:58:04,066
Did it work?

1448
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:05,867
They won't know until later.

1449
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,176
So we're just going
to sit here all day

1450
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:07,934
and stare at it?

1451
00:58:08,066 --> 00:58:09,700
That's the plan. Yeah.

1452
00:58:09,834 --> 00:58:12,300
I guess we can work around you
for the party?

1453
00:58:12,433 --> 00:58:13,533
Ohh...

1454
00:58:13,667 --> 00:58:14,367
You forgot.

1455
00:58:14,500 --> 00:58:15,967
Did not forget.

1456
00:58:16,100 --> 00:58:18,567
I just didn't remember on time.

1457
00:58:18,700 --> 00:58:20,020
What exactly
are we talking about?

1458
00:58:20,066 --> 00:58:22,567
I'm having my annual
gift exchange party

1459
00:58:22,700 --> 00:58:23,433
here tonight.

1460
00:58:23,567 --> 00:58:24,333
You're going to love it.

1461
00:58:24,467 --> 00:58:26,800
You can
keep your eye on the tree

1462
00:58:26,934 --> 00:58:28,900
and have fun
while you're doing it.

1463
00:58:29,033 --> 00:58:30,533
That sounds fun,

1464
00:58:30,667 --> 00:58:31,810
but I don't
have a gift to bring.

1465
00:58:31,834 --> 00:58:33,400
That's actually the easy part.

1466
00:58:33,533 --> 00:58:36,867
Do you guys mind continuing
with the tree watching?

1467
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:38,633
Come on.

1468
00:58:39,533 --> 00:58:40,533
Okay.

1469
00:58:51,433 --> 00:58:52,667
Okay. $20 max,

1470
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:53,600
and you shouldn't see

1471
00:58:53,734 --> 00:58:55,009
what the other person
is getting,

1472
00:58:55,033 --> 00:58:58,066
so you're going to have to be
pretty stealth about it.

1473
00:58:58,200 --> 00:58:58,900
Okay.

1474
00:58:59,033 --> 00:59:01,233
Hmm...

1475
00:59:01,367 --> 00:59:03,300
Oh, come on.

1476
00:59:03,433 --> 00:59:04,700
I mean...

1477
00:59:04,834 --> 00:59:07,333
Aw. I think that's my size.

1478
00:59:07,467 --> 00:59:09,200
This is nice.

1479
00:59:09,333 --> 00:59:11,000
Oh, very good.

1480
00:59:11,133 --> 00:59:12,133
It's a bit strong.

1481
00:59:13,767 --> 00:59:14,500
Hello?

1482
00:59:14,633 --> 00:59:15,834
Hello? Hello?

1483
00:59:33,300 --> 00:59:35,133
- Oh.
- Oh.

1484
00:59:35,266 --> 00:59:36,033
I'll wait over here.

1485
00:59:36,166 --> 00:59:37,967
- Okay.
- Okay.

1486
00:59:39,133 --> 00:59:39,834
Thank you.

1487
00:59:39,967 --> 00:59:40,967
Thank you.

1488
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:48,033
So, everyone draws a number,

1489
00:59:48,166 --> 00:59:52,000
and then the first person
picks a gift and opens it.

1490
00:59:53,133 --> 00:59:54,000
I knew it.

1491
00:59:54,133 --> 00:59:56,000
Then the second person
opens their gift,

1492
00:59:56,133 --> 00:59:57,000
and they can keep it...

1493
00:59:57,133 --> 00:59:58,834
Yes.

1494
00:59:58,967 --> 01:00:01,533
Somebody knows I love cheese.

1495
01:00:01,667 --> 01:00:04,500
Or they can trade it
with the first person.

1496
01:00:04,633 --> 01:00:06,667
Then the third person
opens their gift.

1497
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:07,533
Aw!

1498
01:00:07,667 --> 01:00:08,667
They can keep that one,

1499
01:00:08,734 --> 01:00:11,867
or they can steal
from the first two.

1500
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:13,934
And at the end,
whoever went first

1501
01:00:14,066 --> 01:00:15,767
gets one more chance to steal.

1502
01:00:15,900 --> 01:00:17,233
It gets pretty ugly.

1503
01:00:18,300 --> 01:00:20,033
"The History
of the Christmas Tree."

1504
01:00:20,166 --> 01:00:21,834
- Ooh.
- That's very nice.

1505
01:00:21,967 --> 01:00:24,100
History of baseball
would've been nicer,

1506
01:00:24,233 --> 01:00:26,100
but who am I to complain?

1507
01:00:27,433 --> 01:00:28,166
Oh, who am I kidding?

1508
01:00:28,300 --> 01:00:29,700
Give me the blanket.

1509
01:00:30,667 --> 01:00:32,000
There we go.

1510
01:00:32,133 --> 01:00:33,133
Okay, it's my turn.

1511
01:00:33,266 --> 01:00:35,767
I'm going for this one.
I saw it, I want it.

1512
01:00:37,166 --> 01:00:39,166
- Oh.
- Yeah.

1513
01:00:39,300 --> 01:00:41,166
Oh, this has never
happened before.

1514
01:00:41,300 --> 01:00:42,000
Wow.

1515
01:00:42,133 --> 01:00:43,700
Look at that.

1516
01:00:43,834 --> 01:00:45,800
I'm keeping it.

1517
01:00:46,734 --> 01:00:48,433
Oh, I guess I'm up.

1518
01:00:48,567 --> 01:00:49,934
- Yes.
- Go for it.

1519
01:00:50,066 --> 01:00:51,300
Which one should I pick?

1520
01:00:52,300 --> 01:00:56,200
Ooh, wow. Look at that.

1521
01:00:56,333 --> 01:00:57,467
Oh!

1522
01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,200
That's the best one
of the night.

1523
01:00:59,333 --> 01:01:00,767
I know you're going
to keep that.

1524
01:01:00,900 --> 01:01:01,900
Actually...

1525
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,100
I think I'll trade it
for the book.

1526
01:01:05,233 --> 01:01:06,700
Really?

1527
01:01:06,834 --> 01:01:07,934
Yeah.

1528
01:01:08,066 --> 01:01:11,600
Well, Jack said you favor trees
in their natural state.

1529
01:01:11,734 --> 01:01:13,333
Oh, did he?

1530
01:01:15,300 --> 01:01:19,166
Christmas trees...
are growing on me.

1531
01:01:19,300 --> 01:01:20,900
Oh!

1532
01:01:21,033 --> 01:01:22,433
That is good.

1533
01:01:22,567 --> 01:01:24,867
She's worse than Jack.

1534
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:26,867
Okay, on that note, Jack,

1535
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:28,800
you can either keep the book,

1536
01:01:28,934 --> 01:01:31,700
or you can trade it
for whatever you like the most.

1537
01:01:31,834 --> 01:01:36,500
Okay, well, I'm going to say
I did really like...

1538
01:01:38,533 --> 01:01:39,767
the book.

1539
01:01:42,533 --> 01:01:43,533
Great minds.

1540
01:01:46,533 --> 01:01:48,266
Wait a minute, what's going on?

1541
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:49,400
Shh.

1542
01:01:50,667 --> 01:01:51,800
Let's go read.

1543
01:01:53,567 --> 01:01:55,800
Okay, who is ready for yule log?

1544
01:01:55,934 --> 01:01:56,934
- Yes!
- Yes, yes.

1545
01:01:59,233 --> 01:02:00,934
Okay.

1546
01:02:01,066 --> 01:02:01,934
Olivia, you're first.

1547
01:02:02,066 --> 01:02:03,433
There is an ornament
baked inside,

1548
01:02:03,567 --> 01:02:04,800
and whoever finds it

1549
01:02:04,934 --> 01:02:07,533
gets to switch on the lights
at the tree ceremony.

1550
01:02:07,667 --> 01:02:09,133
But I'm not family.

1551
01:02:09,266 --> 01:02:12,166
Everything you have done
to help Jack and the farm,

1552
01:02:12,300 --> 01:02:14,667
you will always be family to us.

1553
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:16,934
Okay, but right now,
it's all a big maybe.

1554
01:02:17,066 --> 01:02:18,226
What if the fix doesn't work?

1555
01:02:18,300 --> 01:02:19,934
Well, then we shun you.

1556
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:24,800
Fair enough.

1557
01:02:24,934 --> 01:02:26,200
All right.

1558
01:02:27,967 --> 01:02:28,967
Oh!

1559
01:02:35,734 --> 01:02:38,433
Whoa. Look at that!

1560
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:42,734
That's great.

1561
01:02:42,867 --> 01:02:44,400
Okay, who wants cake?

1562
01:02:44,533 --> 01:02:45,533
Oh yeah.

1563
01:02:45,633 --> 01:02:47,467
I wish Christmas
felt like this at my house.

1564
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:49,000
Why can't it?

1565
01:02:49,133 --> 01:02:51,600
It's just not
what my parents do.

1566
01:02:51,734 --> 01:02:52,467
Oh.

1567
01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:53,934
Well, have you told them

1568
01:02:54,066 --> 01:02:55,506
what you wanted Christmas
to be like?

1569
01:02:58,734 --> 01:03:00,700
You know, you can't
expect your parents

1570
01:03:00,834 --> 01:03:02,200
to solve a problem

1571
01:03:02,333 --> 01:03:04,166
that they don't even
know they have.

1572
01:03:04,300 --> 01:03:06,233
Hmm?

1573
01:03:09,333 --> 01:03:10,166
How's the cake?

1574
01:03:10,300 --> 01:03:11,133
Beginner's luck?

1575
01:03:11,266 --> 01:03:12,626
I don't know.
That was pretty good.

1576
01:03:14,367 --> 01:03:17,767
Well, I guess we've got
a couple hours

1577
01:03:17,900 --> 01:03:19,667
until we can check on the tree.

1578
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:22,567
I'm almost afraid to look.

1579
01:03:22,700 --> 01:03:24,233
I'm not.

1580
01:03:24,367 --> 01:03:26,500
I trust you.

1581
01:03:30,433 --> 01:03:31,633
Uh...

1582
01:03:31,767 --> 01:03:32,500
- Oh.
- Cake?

1583
01:03:32,633 --> 01:03:34,967
Oh, thank you.

1584
01:03:35,100 --> 01:03:36,867
And one for you.

1585
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:38,300
Thank you.

1586
01:03:41,133 --> 01:03:43,200
Is it wrong
that part of me is hoping

1587
01:03:43,333 --> 01:03:45,300
it doesn't work quite yet?

1588
01:03:45,433 --> 01:03:48,033
So she doesn't leave Avon
so soon?

1589
01:03:48,166 --> 01:03:50,867
Yes, very wrong.

1590
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:52,567
And I was thinking
the exact same thing.

1591
01:04:00,533 --> 01:04:02,233
This looks good.
Let's check the others.

1592
01:04:04,433 --> 01:04:05,833
None of the needles
have fallen off.

1593
01:04:07,433 --> 01:04:08,433
It worked?

1594
01:04:08,500 --> 01:04:09,500
It worked.

1595
01:04:09,633 --> 01:04:10,734
- It worked!
- It worked!

1596
01:04:10,867 --> 01:04:12,767
It worked. It worked!

1597
01:04:16,767 --> 01:04:18,000
Hey.

1598
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:20,033
Yeah!

1599
01:04:24,433 --> 01:04:26,710
Okay, Mr. Mozzicato, you've got
the eight-foot tree, right?

1600
01:04:26,734 --> 01:04:27,734
Yes.

1601
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,166
That is this one here for you.
There you go.

1602
01:04:30,300 --> 01:04:31,776
Thank you, Jack,
and merry Christmas.

1603
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:33,533
Merry Christmas and thank you.

1604
01:04:33,667 --> 01:04:34,976
Are you sure we're going
to have enough of these

1605
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:35,767
for the town tree?

1606
01:04:35,900 --> 01:04:37,533
Oh, plenty.

1607
01:04:37,667 --> 01:04:39,033
Perfect. Hi.

1608
01:04:39,166 --> 01:04:40,600
You've got
the six-foot tree, right?

1609
01:04:40,734 --> 01:04:41,767
Yes, I knew it.

1610
01:04:41,900 --> 01:04:44,533
Right. Here you go.

1611
01:04:44,667 --> 01:04:46,000
Would you mind
covering from here?

1612
01:04:46,133 --> 01:04:47,567
Thank you.

1613
01:04:57,300 --> 01:04:59,600
Good luck, big guy.

1614
01:04:59,734 --> 01:05:00,734
Yeah.

1615
01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:03,800
Okay, fine.

1616
01:05:03,900 --> 01:05:07,266
Yes, I do talk to trees. Happy?

1617
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:08,400
You have no idea.

1618
01:05:11,066 --> 01:05:12,533
Come on. Hop in.

1619
01:05:12,667 --> 01:05:13,867
We've got to put up this tree.

1620
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:18,934
Up, up, up, up, up.

1621
01:05:19,066 --> 01:05:20,500
Keep going.

1622
01:05:20,633 --> 01:05:22,100
Right about there.

1623
01:05:22,233 --> 01:05:22,967
Perfect. That's it.

1624
01:05:23,100 --> 01:05:25,266
Nice.

1625
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:26,433
All right.

1626
01:05:26,567 --> 01:05:28,033
It looks beautiful. Ah.

1627
01:05:28,166 --> 01:05:30,667
Glad to see it turned out
okay, Jack.

1628
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:34,233
Yeah, it turned out
better than okay.

1629
01:05:34,367 --> 01:05:36,033
We'll get started decorating.

1630
01:05:36,166 --> 01:05:37,000
Look at you.

1631
01:05:37,133 --> 01:05:38,176
You saved Christmas, Olivia.

1632
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:39,433
I can't thank you enough.

1633
01:05:39,567 --> 01:05:41,734
I should be thanking you.

1634
01:05:41,867 --> 01:05:44,433
For the first time
in I don't know how long,

1635
01:05:44,567 --> 01:05:46,767
Christmas isn't something
to get through.

1636
01:05:46,900 --> 01:05:48,867
It's something to treasure.

1637
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:50,100
Yeah.

1638
01:05:50,233 --> 01:05:52,633
I just wish I could take
this feeling home with me.

1639
01:05:52,767 --> 01:05:55,233
Are you sure you can't stay?

1640
01:05:55,367 --> 01:05:57,066
You saved the tree.

1641
01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:58,943
You should probably be here
tomorrow when we light it up.

1642
01:05:58,967 --> 01:06:02,266
I want to, but...

1643
01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:04,967
I mean, my parents would never
forgive me, so...

1644
01:06:05,100 --> 01:06:08,200
Unless you tell them
why you want to stay.

1645
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,567
I mean... if you want to stay.

1646
01:06:13,900 --> 01:06:16,133
You know I do.

1647
01:06:16,266 --> 01:06:18,333
For the trees?

1648
01:06:22,433 --> 01:06:24,767
For more than just the trees.

1649
01:06:24,900 --> 01:06:26,734
Then say it.

1650
01:06:26,867 --> 01:06:28,834
It's not that easy for me, Jack.

1651
01:06:30,700 --> 01:06:33,900
We have come too far
not to see this through.

1652
01:06:37,066 --> 01:06:39,967
Clearly, I'm...
I'm talking about us.

1653
01:06:40,100 --> 01:06:41,467
I'm at UConn, an hour away.

1654
01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:43,600
What happens after Christmas?

1655
01:06:43,734 --> 01:06:46,133
I don't know.

1656
01:06:46,266 --> 01:06:50,000
I just know that for
the first time in a long time,

1657
01:06:50,133 --> 01:06:52,734
I'm thinking
about something else.

1658
01:06:55,266 --> 01:06:57,000
Will this even work?

1659
01:06:57,133 --> 01:06:59,233
We have solved
every other problem.

1660
01:07:01,367 --> 01:07:02,800
We'll figure this out too.

1661
01:07:14,266 --> 01:07:16,066
So...

1662
01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:17,000
meet you here in the morning?

1663
01:07:17,133 --> 01:07:18,533
It's a date.

1664
01:07:18,667 --> 01:07:19,834
Yeah, it is.

1665
01:07:39,500 --> 01:07:40,233
Hi, Mom.

1666
01:07:40,367 --> 01:07:43,367
Listen, about Christmas Eve.

1667
01:07:43,500 --> 01:07:45,033
I know you want me to come home,

1668
01:07:45,166 --> 01:07:47,533
but I think I'm going
to stay here in Avon.

1669
01:07:47,667 --> 01:07:49,800
We're hosting
the cocktail hour at the club.

1670
01:07:49,934 --> 01:07:50,667
We have to be there.

1671
01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:51,867
I know you do.

1672
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,567
Olivia, I have told you.

1673
01:07:54,700 --> 01:07:56,567
No one is going to ask you
about the wedding

1674
01:07:56,700 --> 01:07:58,900
or about Justin.

1675
01:07:59,033 --> 01:08:00,073
They just want to see you.

1676
01:08:00,100 --> 01:08:02,200
They don't even know me.

1677
01:08:02,333 --> 01:08:04,867
Mom, they only know
the version of me

1678
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:06,233
that you want them to see,

1679
01:08:06,367 --> 01:08:07,533
but I can't do that anymore.

1680
01:08:07,667 --> 01:08:10,200
I don't understand any of this.

1681
01:08:10,333 --> 01:08:12,200
I thought you loved Christmas.

1682
01:08:12,333 --> 01:08:14,400
I do, now.

1683
01:08:14,533 --> 01:08:15,543
Now that I know
what it could be.

1684
01:08:15,567 --> 01:08:16,887
Do you care to share
what that is?

1685
01:08:16,934 --> 01:08:20,400
Look, I'll be home
Christmas morning, and then...

1686
01:08:20,533 --> 01:08:21,266
I'm going to show you.

1687
01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,633
Will you really come home?

1688
01:08:23,767 --> 01:08:24,600
Or will you just call

1689
01:08:24,734 --> 01:08:25,567
with another reason
to stay away?

1690
01:08:25,700 --> 01:08:27,533
I'll really come. I promise.

1691
01:08:27,667 --> 01:08:29,166
We have a lot to talk about.

1692
01:08:30,367 --> 01:08:31,800
Good night, Mom. Love you.

1693
01:08:59,500 --> 01:09:01,266
What?

1694
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:05,533
I don't understand.
It was working.

1695
01:09:05,667 --> 01:09:07,567
And I called
some of the customers.

1696
01:09:07,700 --> 01:09:08,943
They said that
their trees were fine.

1697
01:09:08,967 --> 01:09:10,209
Did we put enough nutrients
in here?

1698
01:09:10,233 --> 01:09:13,867
It's the exact same ratio
to trunk size as the others.

1699
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:15,367
Wait.

1700
01:09:15,500 --> 01:09:17,209
These needles look different
from the other damaged trees.

1701
01:09:17,233 --> 01:09:19,300
They look worse.

1702
01:09:22,467 --> 01:09:24,300
Don't worry, Jack.

1703
01:09:24,433 --> 01:09:26,166
Today's your lucky day.

1704
01:09:26,300 --> 01:09:28,000
I have our tree ready to go.

1705
01:09:28,133 --> 01:09:29,276
It's not your decision, Dwayne.

1706
01:09:29,300 --> 01:09:30,033
It's up to Mayor McGuire.

1707
01:09:30,166 --> 01:09:32,100
Who do you think called me?

1708
01:09:32,233 --> 01:09:34,133
We're cutting down
the replacement.

1709
01:09:34,266 --> 01:09:36,467
It'll be here in three hours.

1710
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:39,200
I assume you'll
help us out here, right?

1711
01:09:39,333 --> 01:09:41,533
I mean, we're all
on the same team.

1712
01:09:41,667 --> 01:09:43,000
Are we?

1713
01:09:43,133 --> 01:09:46,166
Well, you're on the B team
now, but, uh, yeah.

1714
01:09:46,300 --> 01:09:51,033
Jack, tree lady, good day.

1715
01:09:53,166 --> 01:09:54,633
You can't let him win.

1716
01:09:54,767 --> 01:09:56,367
It's not about winning anymore.

1717
01:09:56,500 --> 01:09:57,800
It's about Christmas Eve,

1718
01:09:57,934 --> 01:10:00,333
and it's about
the entire community,

1719
01:10:00,467 --> 01:10:03,300
and I feel like I've ruined it
for everyone.

1720
01:10:03,433 --> 01:10:06,633
Jack...

1721
01:10:06,767 --> 01:10:08,100
I'm so sorry.

1722
01:10:08,233 --> 01:10:10,333
Hey, it's not your fault.

1723
01:10:10,467 --> 01:10:11,700
You did everything you could.

1724
01:10:11,834 --> 01:10:14,800
I'm not giving up on your trees.

1725
01:10:14,934 --> 01:10:17,209
Okay, we have the technology
to get to the bottom of this.

1726
01:10:17,233 --> 01:10:19,309
It's just going to take
a little longer than we thought.

1727
01:10:19,333 --> 01:10:20,500
In the meantime,

1728
01:10:20,633 --> 01:10:22,533
I can get
the entire horticulture team

1729
01:10:22,667 --> 01:10:24,433
to recommend alternative crops.

1730
01:10:24,567 --> 01:10:26,600
I told you I wasn't interested.

1731
01:10:26,734 --> 01:10:28,133
Why would you even
bring that up?

1732
01:10:28,266 --> 01:10:29,743
Because it's the best way
out of this.

1733
01:10:29,767 --> 01:10:31,600
It's not an option.

1734
01:10:31,734 --> 01:10:32,776
We do Christmas. That's it.

1735
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:33,800
That's all I care about.

1736
01:10:34,934 --> 01:10:37,033
I see.

1737
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:40,467
Olivia. Olivia, wait.

1738
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:42,800
You know what I mean.

1739
01:10:42,934 --> 01:10:44,934
I mean, I care
about a lot of things.

1740
01:10:45,066 --> 01:10:46,800
I care about you, too.

1741
01:10:46,934 --> 01:10:49,400
This just isn't going to work.

1742
01:10:50,900 --> 01:10:53,266
You told me to say
what I was feeling, Jack.

1743
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:55,800
And I did.

1744
01:10:55,934 --> 01:10:56,934
But the truth is,

1745
01:10:57,066 --> 01:10:59,667
you don't want me
to say how I feel...

1746
01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:02,433
just what you want to hear.

1747
01:11:02,567 --> 01:11:05,066
Just like everyone else.

1748
01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:06,767
This isn't about your family,

1749
01:11:06,900 --> 01:11:08,820
and this isn't about your fiancé
or anybody else.

1750
01:11:08,900 --> 01:11:10,066
This is about us.

1751
01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,400
It's time for me
to get back to my life,

1752
01:11:12,533 --> 01:11:15,300
and you to get back to yours.

1753
01:11:19,300 --> 01:11:20,300
So that's it?

1754
01:11:53,233 --> 01:11:54,676
Yeah, I guess we'll just
put them in there, Mom.

1755
01:11:54,700 --> 01:11:56,467
- Yeah, mix up the colors.
- Yes.

1756
01:11:58,633 --> 01:12:01,800
Mind if we use these
for the, uh, the good tree?

1757
01:12:01,934 --> 01:12:04,433
We're all on the same team
here, right?

1758
01:12:04,567 --> 01:12:06,834
No? Nothing?

1759
01:12:06,967 --> 01:12:08,000
Excuse me.

1760
01:12:08,133 --> 01:12:09,333
- That's it.
- Whoa.

1761
01:12:09,467 --> 01:12:12,433
Don't let him get to you.

1762
01:12:12,567 --> 01:12:15,333
Dwayne's right about one thing.

1763
01:12:15,467 --> 01:12:16,800
It's not about us now.

1764
01:12:16,934 --> 01:12:18,066
It's about Christmas.

1765
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:22,233
In the end, we have to remember
what we're celebrating.

1766
01:12:22,367 --> 01:12:24,333
It's about bringing people joy.

1767
01:12:24,467 --> 01:12:27,233
I know. Yeah.

1768
01:12:27,367 --> 01:12:28,767
Where's Olivia?

1769
01:12:28,900 --> 01:12:30,934
She left.

1770
01:12:31,066 --> 01:12:32,066
What?

1771
01:12:40,734 --> 01:12:43,266
Why?

1772
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:46,266
Because there's nothing else
for her to do here,

1773
01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:48,233
and there's no reason
for her to stay, Mom.

1774
01:12:48,367 --> 01:12:49,967
You're the reason, Jack.

1775
01:12:50,100 --> 01:12:51,660
Did you tell her
how you feel about her?

1776
01:12:51,767 --> 01:12:53,767
Yes, I did, and she told me,

1777
01:12:53,900 --> 01:12:56,266
and then the tree fell apart,
and so did everything else.

1778
01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:57,133
Why?

1779
01:12:57,266 --> 01:12:59,767
We just don't see eye to eye.

1780
01:12:59,900 --> 01:13:01,066
About what?

1781
01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:04,033
She suggested
planting more crops again,

1782
01:13:04,166 --> 01:13:05,233
and I just...

1783
01:13:07,133 --> 01:13:09,133
I didn't respond
very well to it.

1784
01:13:09,266 --> 01:13:11,900
I don't understand
why you won't consider it.

1785
01:13:12,033 --> 01:13:14,600
Because I promised Dad
that I wouldn't change a thing.

1786
01:13:16,967 --> 01:13:19,333
The Connor name is synonymous
with Christmas,

1787
01:13:19,467 --> 01:13:23,133
and I don't want to destroy
a hundred years of tradition.

1788
01:13:23,266 --> 01:13:26,233
Oh, honey,
yes, tradition is important,

1789
01:13:26,367 --> 01:13:27,500
and so is Christmas,

1790
01:13:27,633 --> 01:13:28,843
but you know what
the most important thing

1791
01:13:28,867 --> 01:13:30,367
was to your dad? Us.

1792
01:13:30,500 --> 01:13:35,667
You, our community,
our friends...

1793
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:37,800
our happiness.

1794
01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:41,333
That's the legacy
he wanted you to keep.

1795
01:13:43,967 --> 01:13:45,433
It's too late now, Mom.
She's gone.

1796
01:13:47,133 --> 01:13:49,066
It's never too late, Jack.

1797
01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:52,700
Sometimes you just have
to be willing

1798
01:13:52,834 --> 01:13:54,400
to be open to change.

1799
01:14:16,934 --> 01:14:18,467
- Roll the window down.
- Okay, I am.

1800
01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:22,609
Well, what are you guys
doing here?

1801
01:14:22,633 --> 01:14:24,767
Annoying people, apparently.

1802
01:14:24,900 --> 01:14:26,333
You can't stop in traffic.

1803
01:14:26,467 --> 01:14:27,767
I'll meet you
at the coffee shop.

1804
01:14:27,900 --> 01:14:29,380
- Coffee shop.
- Right in there, yeah.

1805
01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:33,810
You guys really didn't need
to come up here.

1806
01:14:33,834 --> 01:14:35,233
I was just heading home.

1807
01:14:35,367 --> 01:14:37,076
Do you really think you could
drop a bomb on us like that

1808
01:14:37,100 --> 01:14:39,767
and we'd just let it go?

1809
01:14:39,900 --> 01:14:41,533
You have a piece of tree
in your hair.

1810
01:14:44,834 --> 01:14:45,600
Yeah.

1811
01:14:45,734 --> 01:14:47,467
Yeah, I know.

1812
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:49,834
I always do.

1813
01:14:49,967 --> 01:14:51,934
Mom, this is who I am.

1814
01:14:52,066 --> 01:14:54,266
I'm a woman who has
pine needles in her hair

1815
01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:55,409
and dirt under her fingernails,

1816
01:14:55,433 --> 01:14:58,266
and absolutely zero desire

1817
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:00,600
to get all dressed up
for Christmas

1818
01:15:00,734 --> 01:15:02,400
just to stand around
and chat with people

1819
01:15:02,533 --> 01:15:04,100
who want me
to be somebody I'm not.

1820
01:15:04,233 --> 01:15:06,700
So you don't want to be like us.

1821
01:15:06,834 --> 01:15:07,567
Then what do you want?

1822
01:15:07,700 --> 01:15:09,900
I want to spend the entire day

1823
01:15:10,033 --> 01:15:11,066
in our pajamas.

1824
01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:13,333
I want to make a mess
with the wrapping paper.

1825
01:15:13,467 --> 01:15:15,934
I want to bake our own cookies,
even though I can't bake,

1826
01:15:16,066 --> 01:15:17,834
and I want to decorate our tree

1827
01:15:17,967 --> 01:15:21,266
with ornaments that
mean something to our family.

1828
01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:23,100
I don't want it to be

1829
01:15:23,233 --> 01:15:25,500
about other people's
perception of us.

1830
01:15:25,633 --> 01:15:27,700
I just want it to be...

1831
01:15:27,834 --> 01:15:28,834
about us.

1832
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:32,076
Maybe we should
cancel the party tonight.

1833
01:15:32,100 --> 01:15:33,340
Dad, you don't have to do that.

1834
01:15:33,367 --> 01:15:35,066
You guys love that party.

1835
01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:36,200
Yeah, see?

1836
01:15:36,233 --> 01:15:37,833
Mom doesn't want you
to cancel the party.

1837
01:15:37,900 --> 01:15:39,734
I'm sure you guys wish

1838
01:15:39,867 --> 01:15:41,543
that I didn't say anything
about any of this.

1839
01:15:41,567 --> 01:15:42,567
It's okay.

1840
01:15:42,700 --> 01:15:44,200
Don't worry about...

1841
01:15:44,333 --> 01:15:45,100
I'll see you at home.

1842
01:15:45,233 --> 01:15:46,233
No, wait.

1843
01:15:48,367 --> 01:15:49,576
Honey, I've never been very good

1844
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:51,667
about expressing myself.

1845
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,033
I know.

1846
01:15:53,166 --> 01:15:54,533
Runs in the family.

1847
01:15:56,033 --> 01:15:58,400
I'm just so, so sorry, Livvy,

1848
01:15:58,533 --> 01:16:00,667
that I've made you
feel anything less

1849
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:03,433
than the strong,
brilliant, beautiful woman

1850
01:16:03,567 --> 01:16:05,266
that you've become.

1851
01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:08,133
You don't need
to change anything.

1852
01:16:08,266 --> 01:16:09,266
I do.

1853
01:16:10,100 --> 01:16:12,433
But this Christmas...

1854
01:16:12,567 --> 01:16:14,800
if you still want to come home?

1855
01:16:14,934 --> 01:16:15,934
Of course I do.

1856
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:23,834
I wish I'd said all this
years ago.

1857
01:16:23,967 --> 01:16:26,433
Why now? What changed?

1858
01:16:27,967 --> 01:16:29,767
Is there something else
the matter?

1859
01:16:29,900 --> 01:16:31,233
Yeah.

1860
01:16:31,367 --> 01:16:33,100
Aw.

1861
01:16:36,467 --> 01:16:38,633
Are you sure you don't want
to just find him

1862
01:16:38,767 --> 01:16:40,967
and talk to him?

1863
01:16:41,100 --> 01:16:42,834
You guys, I love you so much

1864
01:16:42,967 --> 01:16:45,200
for coming here
and for listening,

1865
01:16:45,333 --> 01:16:48,333
but when it comes to Jack...

1866
01:16:50,266 --> 01:16:51,367
I blew it.

1867
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:56,500
So let's just go home and have
our best Christmas ever.

1868
01:16:56,633 --> 01:16:58,400
Okay?

1869
01:16:58,533 --> 01:16:59,853
I can't wait
to burn some cookies.

1870
01:17:02,867 --> 01:17:03,867
Love you guys.

1871
01:17:04,767 --> 01:17:05,900
See you in a couple hours.

1872
01:17:06,033 --> 01:17:06,767
Drive carefully.

1873
01:17:06,900 --> 01:17:07,900
Okay.

1874
01:17:17,333 --> 01:17:19,500
Dwayne Colson texted me.

1875
01:17:19,633 --> 01:17:21,176
He wants us to stay here
and put up the new tree.

1876
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:23,367
We already did our job, right?

1877
01:17:23,500 --> 01:17:25,233
Ignore that. Did you...

1878
01:17:25,367 --> 01:17:26,800
No. We should
probably do that.

1879
01:17:26,934 --> 01:17:28,294
Yeah, we should
probably do that.

1880
01:17:28,367 --> 01:17:32,200
Hey, you guys work with Dwayne?

1881
01:17:32,333 --> 01:17:34,967
Yeah.

1882
01:17:35,100 --> 01:17:35,834
You know him?

1883
01:17:35,967 --> 01:17:36,967
Yeah, we go way back.

1884
01:17:37,100 --> 01:17:40,233
Tell him congratulations
on the town tree.

1885
01:17:40,367 --> 01:17:41,867
I mean, I feel bad
for the Connors,

1886
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:44,066
but hey, nature's going to do

1887
01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:45,409
what nature's going to do,
right?

1888
01:17:45,433 --> 01:17:46,600
Yeah, nature.

1889
01:17:48,367 --> 01:17:49,667
Uh, selfie?

1890
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:50,633
Yeah.

1891
01:17:50,767 --> 01:17:51,943
- All right.
- Where do you want us?

1892
01:17:51,967 --> 01:17:53,367
Yeah, yeah, right there
is perfect.

1893
01:17:53,500 --> 01:17:54,233
Yeah, just a little bit...

1894
01:17:54,367 --> 01:17:56,266
Yeah. Say "Christmas tree."

1895
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:57,400
Christmas tree!

1896
01:18:00,500 --> 01:18:01,934
Hey, this is Jack.

1897
01:18:02,066 --> 01:18:03,100
Leave a message.

1898
01:18:03,233 --> 01:18:04,266
Jack, it's me.

1899
01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:06,834
Dwayne sabotaged the tree
with weed killer overnight.

1900
01:18:06,967 --> 01:18:08,209
Meet me at the tree
when you can.

1901
01:18:08,233 --> 01:18:10,100
Excuse me!

1902
01:18:10,233 --> 01:18:11,533
What's her problem?

1903
01:18:13,533 --> 01:18:14,934
Stop! Don't take it down.

1904
01:18:15,066 --> 01:18:16,567
This tree
is going to be just fine.

1905
01:18:16,700 --> 01:18:18,500
I know
you did your best, Olivia,

1906
01:18:18,633 --> 01:18:20,176
but the same thing
happening to this tree

1907
01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:21,600
as all the rest of them.

1908
01:18:21,734 --> 01:18:22,810
By tonight,
most of these needles

1909
01:18:22,834 --> 01:18:23,943
are going to be on the ground.

1910
01:18:23,967 --> 01:18:25,567
No, this is not
like the other trees.

1911
01:18:25,700 --> 01:18:27,734
I'm sorry, but I can't
take that chance.

1912
01:18:27,867 --> 01:18:28,934
Dwayne Colson...

1913
01:18:29,066 --> 01:18:31,133
Dwayne Colson sprayed
this tree with weed killer

1914
01:18:31,266 --> 01:18:33,600
so it would look
like it was dying.

1915
01:18:33,734 --> 01:18:36,467
Every branch it touched
looks like that.

1916
01:18:38,433 --> 01:18:39,433
Dwayne?

1917
01:18:39,567 --> 01:18:42,400
I don't know what tree lady's
talking about.

1918
01:18:42,533 --> 01:18:44,233
She's just embarrassed
because she failed.

1919
01:18:44,367 --> 01:18:46,867
Yeah, well, these guys
tell a different story.

1920
01:18:51,367 --> 01:18:53,000
She got you, Dwayne.

1921
01:18:53,133 --> 01:18:54,743
You just couldn't
help yourself, could you?

1922
01:18:54,767 --> 01:18:57,934
Your mother
always cheated at Hearts.

1923
01:18:58,066 --> 01:18:59,400
Oh...

1924
01:18:59,533 --> 01:19:02,967
I'm not surprised the acorn
didn't fall far from the tree.

1925
01:19:03,100 --> 01:19:04,100
Good job, Mom.

1926
01:19:04,166 --> 01:19:05,667
Think what you want,

1927
01:19:05,800 --> 01:19:07,033
but there's nothing you can do

1928
01:19:07,166 --> 01:19:09,633
about the needles
that have already dropped.

1929
01:19:09,767 --> 01:19:13,166
You know, is this
the type of tree you want

1930
01:19:13,300 --> 01:19:14,734
on the most important
Christmas Eve

1931
01:19:14,867 --> 01:19:16,467
Avon's ever had?

1932
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:18,967
This is what you want people
to remember us by?

1933
01:19:19,100 --> 01:19:21,433
I'd rather have no tree...

1934
01:19:22,667 --> 01:19:23,667
than one from you.

1935
01:19:25,834 --> 01:19:27,100
Miles.

1936
01:19:29,133 --> 01:19:29,867
Really?

1937
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:31,300
You called the cops?

1938
01:19:31,433 --> 01:19:32,967
Let's go down to the station

1939
01:19:33,100 --> 01:19:34,800
and talk about Avon's
vandalism law.

1940
01:19:34,934 --> 01:19:36,834
Good day, sir.

1941
01:19:36,967 --> 01:19:37,967
Tree lady...

1942
01:19:40,133 --> 01:19:41,133
Well played.

1943
01:19:43,233 --> 01:19:44,600
I hate to say it,

1944
01:19:44,734 --> 01:19:46,767
but Dwayne
is right about one thing.

1945
01:19:46,900 --> 01:19:48,533
This tree does not look great...

1946
01:19:48,667 --> 01:19:50,200
and that's being generous.

1947
01:19:50,333 --> 01:19:52,900
I mean, it might not
look perfect,

1948
01:19:53,033 --> 01:19:55,934
but, I mean,
the story behind it is great.

1949
01:19:56,066 --> 01:19:57,576
I think the media's
going to eat it up.

1950
01:19:57,600 --> 01:19:58,934
You think?

1951
01:19:59,066 --> 01:20:00,166
Are you kidding?

1952
01:20:00,300 --> 01:20:03,567
There's a hero and a villain
and a love story.

1953
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:08,133
Maybe it can be like
that story you told me,

1954
01:20:08,266 --> 01:20:10,667
about the very first year
of the tradition.

1955
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:14,333
Everyone from town
can bring something.

1956
01:20:14,467 --> 01:20:16,433
It can be
everyone's tree again...

1957
01:20:16,567 --> 01:20:18,367
just a hundred years later.

1958
01:20:18,500 --> 01:20:21,800
I think that's a great idea.

1959
01:20:21,934 --> 01:20:22,800
I guess they don't call you

1960
01:20:22,934 --> 01:20:24,076
the Christmas Tree Whisperer
for nothing.

1961
01:20:24,100 --> 01:20:27,100
Actually, she doesn't like
to be called that.

1962
01:20:27,233 --> 01:20:30,633
Um, it's... it's okay.

1963
01:20:30,767 --> 01:20:31,967
I kind of like it.

1964
01:20:34,867 --> 01:20:35,867
Oh.

1965
01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:37,700
Actually, she kind of
likes it now.

1966
01:20:41,433 --> 01:20:43,309
I feel like I have so many
things I want to say to you.

1967
01:20:43,333 --> 01:20:44,467
Me too.

1968
01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:46,133
Tree now.

1969
01:20:46,266 --> 01:20:47,367
Talk later.

1970
01:20:47,500 --> 01:20:50,100
You two have plenty of time.

1971
01:21:16,233 --> 01:21:18,300
Oh, I'm so glad you made it.

1972
01:21:18,433 --> 01:21:19,433
Yeah.

1973
01:21:20,667 --> 01:21:22,267
I'm sorry if it meant
missing that party.

1974
01:21:22,300 --> 01:21:23,667
Oh, that doesn't matter anymore.

1975
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,000
We just wanted
to see for ourselves

1976
01:21:26,133 --> 01:21:28,233
what you love about Christmas...

1977
01:21:28,367 --> 01:21:30,934
and you're wearing
the coat that I love.

1978
01:21:31,066 --> 01:21:32,266
I know.

1979
01:21:36,667 --> 01:21:38,600
Oh, um, hang on.

1980
01:21:38,734 --> 01:21:40,667
Okay.

1981
01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:43,066
Mom, Dad, this is Jack.

1982
01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:44,934
Mrs. Arden. Mr. Arden.

1983
01:21:45,066 --> 01:21:45,867
- Lovely to meet you.
- Lovely to meet you too.

1984
01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:46,800
It's such a pleasure.

1985
01:21:46,934 --> 01:21:48,767
You have an incredible daughter.

1986
01:21:48,900 --> 01:21:51,734
Oh, we know.

1987
01:21:51,867 --> 01:21:54,967
Pine needles in her hair,
exactly as it should be.

1988
01:21:55,100 --> 01:21:55,800
Yeah.

1989
01:21:55,934 --> 01:21:58,400
Is that a cider cart?

1990
01:21:58,533 --> 01:21:59,734
Yeah.

1991
01:21:59,867 --> 01:22:03,200
Oh. Oh, yes. Good idea.

1992
01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:06,667
Your parents seem really nice.

1993
01:22:06,800 --> 01:22:07,600
I don't know.

1994
01:22:07,734 --> 01:22:09,400
I was picturing
something flashier.

1995
01:22:09,533 --> 01:22:13,266
Yeah, actually, I was...
I was wrong about them.

1996
01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:15,000
I was wrong
about a lot of things,

1997
01:22:15,133 --> 01:22:16,166
including telling you

1998
01:22:16,300 --> 01:22:17,700
to change the way
you run your farm.

1999
01:22:17,834 --> 01:22:19,000
You were right about that.

2000
01:22:19,133 --> 01:22:20,433
I want to expand the crops.

2001
01:22:20,567 --> 01:22:22,300
But I thought

2002
01:22:22,433 --> 01:22:24,767
Christmas is the only thing
you care about.

2003
01:22:24,900 --> 01:22:26,500
It was, until I met you.

2004
01:22:26,633 --> 01:22:29,834
Look, you were just trying
to tell me how you felt,

2005
01:22:29,967 --> 01:22:33,300
and I wasn't listening,
and I am so sorry.

2006
01:22:33,433 --> 01:22:34,300
That's the thing.

2007
01:22:34,433 --> 01:22:36,900
I told you how I felt
about your crops...

2008
01:22:37,033 --> 01:22:40,300
not about you.

2009
01:22:40,433 --> 01:22:43,600
Well, now's your chance.

2010
01:22:45,734 --> 01:22:48,233
Well, in this
particular situation,

2011
01:22:48,367 --> 01:22:50,967
I think it might be better
if I just show you.

2012
01:22:51,100 --> 01:22:52,100
Okay.

2013
01:22:58,200 --> 01:22:59,200
That was well said.

2014
01:22:59,934 --> 01:23:02,033
Hey...

2015
01:23:02,166 --> 01:23:03,633
would you two like to...

2016
01:23:03,767 --> 01:23:05,700
You guys want
to push the button?

2017
01:23:05,834 --> 01:23:06,700
They're busy.

2018
01:23:06,834 --> 01:23:07,567
We got this.

2019
01:23:07,700 --> 01:23:12,133
In ten, nine, eight, seven,

2020
01:23:12,266 --> 01:23:15,400
six, five, four,

2021
01:23:15,533 --> 01:23:18,400
three, two, one!
