Miss Rhodes, Miss Rhodes,
can you help me?

The front desk is giving me
the run-around.

20
00:00:55,066 --> 00:00:57,066
Of course, Ms. Jennings.
What can I do for you?

21
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,333
Well, I just want to use
my Star Resorts points

22
00:00:59,467 --> 00:01:01,767
for a ticket to the Christmas
Eve Variety Show.

23
00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:03,767
Now, is that so hard to do?

24
00:01:03,900 --> 00:01:06,166
Ah, well this isn't a Star
Rewards hotel and...

25
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:07,400
Oh...

26
00:01:07,533 --> 00:01:09,600
And I'm so sorry, but the show
is completely sold out.

27
00:01:09,734 --> 00:01:11,133
There's nothing I can do.

28
00:01:11,266 --> 00:01:13,667
Well... But I have over
100,000 points.

29
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,266
Right. Still the same issues.

30
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,133
Actually, why don't you check

31
00:01:18,266 --> 00:01:20,233
with our assistant manager,
Jackson?

32
00:01:20,367 --> 00:01:21,367
He's right over there.

33
00:01:24,300 --> 00:01:25,900
I'm sure he'd love
to help you.

34
00:01:26,033 --> 00:01:27,533
Hm? Jackson!

35
00:01:29,867 --> 00:01:31,500
You don't look like you have
any contraband.

00:01:33,367 --> 00:01:35,000
Yesterday somebody tried
to sneak a llama-

39
00:01:35,133 --> 00:01:36,000
No, they didn't.

40
00:01:36,133 --> 00:01:37,800
But if they did
that's a federal crime.

41
00:01:37,934 --> 00:01:39,600
Well, you almost caught me
red-handed, Otis.

42
00:01:39,734 --> 00:01:41,100
Can you do me a solid
just this once?

43
00:01:41,233 --> 00:01:43,266
Because it's you and
because it's Christmas.

44
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,300
Thank you. I owe you one.

45
00:01:45,433 --> 00:01:47,133

Good. Just down to

Of course, Dad.

-Our annual Christmas Gala?
-Booked and prepared a party.

64
00:02:25,700 --> 00:02:29,133
-Gingerbread decorating contest?
-Off to a sweet start.

65
00:02:29,266 --> 00:02:32,333
-Christmas Day snowmobile tour?
-Ready to ride.

66
00:02:32,467 --> 00:02:33,266
Sorry.

67
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,567
It's just you spent
a lot more time

68
00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:35,800
on the variety show
this year

69
00:02:35,934 --> 00:02:37,533
and I want to make sure
the rest of our core business

70
00:02:37,667 --> 00:02:38,734
is getting taken care of.

71
00:02:38,867 --> 00:02:41,700
I know, and it is.

72
00:02:41,834 --> 00:02:43,033
I don't know what I'd do
without you.

00:02:43,166 --> 00:02:44,967
Thanks, Dad.

-Back to work.

00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:50,800
Beautiful.

00:02:50,934 --> 00:02:52,500
Looks great, everyone.

Oh, this is going to be perfect.

Miss Jennings says hi.

82
00:03:05,734 --> 00:03:08,567
Sorry. She trapped me.
I panicked.

83
00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:10,767
It's okay.
I'll get you back.

84
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:11,900
Are we really out of comps.

00:03:12,033 --> 00:03:13,433
Yeah, crazy right?

86
00:03:13,567 --> 00:03:15,800
I mean, it's only the biggest
show we've ever had.

This is Claire.

Claire, hi.
Andre Hudson here.

00:03:24,867 --> 00:03:26,700
Emperor Resorts Entertainment.

93
00:03:26,834 --> 00:03:28,300
Hello. How are you?

94
00:03:28,433 --> 00:03:29,500
No complaints here.

95
00:03:29,633 --> 00:03:31,633
Listen Claire, I'm going to get
right to the point.

96
00:03:31,767 --> 00:03:33,700
My boss really enjoyed
meeting you.

97
00:03:33,834 --> 00:03:35,734
In fact, he thinks you might
be the perfect fit

98
00:03:35,867 --> 00:03:38,433
to run the variety show
at our new theatre.

99
00:03:38,567 --> 00:03:41,300
Truth is we're all very
impressed with you, Claire.

100
00:03:41,433 --> 00:03:43,934
And, how in the world
did you get Ashley Burns

101
00:03:44,066 --> 00:03:45,400
to play up there?

102
00:03:45,533 --> 00:03:46,900
She's literally one of
the hottest pop stars

103
00:03:47,033 --> 00:03:48,066
on the planet right now.

104
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,266
Oh simple, I just called her
manager twice a day...

105
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:51,734
for six months.

106
00:03:51,867 --> 00:03:52,767
[chuckles]

107
00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:54,467
Right. Right.

108
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,467
Well, good for you.

109
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,233
Now if you can achieve that
up in Tahoe

110
00:03:58,367 --> 00:04:01,700
there's no limit to what you
could achieve down here in Vegas

111
00:04:01,834 --> 00:04:05,133
with our full Emperor resources
at your disposal.

112
00:04:05,266 --> 00:04:06,867
I like where you're going,
Andre.

113
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,100
So, listen, I'd like to come up
next week and see the show.

114
00:04:10,233 --> 00:04:11,367
Watch you in action.

115
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:13,300
We can discuss the job
a little more

116
00:04:13,433 --> 00:04:16,900
and if all goes well,
make a formal offer.

117
00:04:17,300 --> 00:04:20,266
Okay, uh, that sounds great.

118
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,133
I'll book you a room
with a view of the lake.

119
00:04:22,266 --> 00:04:23,834
That sounds perfect.

120
00:04:23,967 --> 00:04:25,467
And I'm very much
looking forward to this.

121
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,033
Me too, thanks.

122
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,967
[giggling excitedly]

123
00:04:31,100 --> 00:04:32,467
I feel like I should be
filming that.

124
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,533
Oh, Jackson! Can you keep
a secret?

125
00:04:34,667 --> 00:04:36,700
My ex-wife says no.

126
00:04:37,900 --> 00:04:39,500
Close enough.

127
00:04:39,633 --> 00:04:42,834
I think I'm about to get a job
running the new variety show

128
00:04:42,967 --> 00:04:45,800
for The Emperor Resorts
in Las Vegas.

129
00:04:45,934 --> 00:04:47,367
Wow Claire, congratulations!

130
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:48,233
Thanks.

131
00:04:48,367 --> 00:04:50,300
They're coming to the show
next week

132
00:04:50,433 --> 00:04:53,533
and assuming the theatre
doesn't explode, I think I'm in.

133
00:04:53,667 --> 00:04:55,767
So, that's why you went all out
for the show this year.

134
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:58,333
They're the place for
live entertainment so I...

135
00:04:58,467 --> 00:04:59,533
[sighs]

136
00:04:59,667 --> 00:05:01,066
I had to show them
what I could do.

137
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,333
Hmm. Well, you deserve it.

138
00:05:03,467 --> 00:05:04,333
Thanks.

139
00:05:04,467 --> 00:05:05,867
Well, good luck.

140
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,734
Hey, you, you don't think
I should go?

141
00:05:08,867 --> 00:05:11,100
I mean, this is your
family's hotel.

142
00:05:11,233 --> 00:05:12,533
Wouldn't it be hard
to leave?

143
00:05:12,667 --> 00:05:14,333
Well, of course.
I spent my whole life here,

144
00:05:14,467 --> 00:05:18,033
but my dream was always
to work in entertainment.

145
00:05:18,166 --> 00:05:20,233
Which almost happened
when I was managing...

146
00:05:20,367 --> 00:05:22,166
The band who shall
not be named.

147
00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:24,567
Also, whose name is like
a bobcat.

148
00:05:24,700 --> 00:05:26,667
Okay, I need you to focus.

149
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:27,667
Sorry.

150
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,734
Now, all I do is weddings,
bar mitzvahs,

151
00:05:29,867 --> 00:05:31,200
tours, conferences...

152
00:05:31,333 --> 00:05:32,600
Dealing with Miss Jennings.

153
00:05:32,734 --> 00:05:33,967
Exactly.

154
00:05:34,100 --> 00:05:36,834
People don't come to the Inn on
the Lake for live entertainment.

155
00:05:36,967 --> 00:05:39,033
I mean, sure we can attract
the crowds at Christmas

156
00:05:39,166 --> 00:05:40,100
because let's be honest,

157
00:05:40,233 --> 00:05:42,100
there's no better place to be
for the holidays.

158
00:05:42,233 --> 00:05:43,166
Not even close.

159
00:05:43,300 --> 00:05:45,166
But we can't compete
with the bigger markets

160
00:05:45,300 --> 00:05:46,533
the rest of the year.

161
00:05:46,667 --> 00:05:48,567
So, if I'm going
to take my shot

162
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:50,166
I've got to go where
the action is.

163
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:51,600
I take it your dad
doesn't know.

164
00:05:51,734 --> 00:05:53,200
Uh, no.

165
00:05:53,333 --> 00:05:55,934
I don't want to tell him
until I get an official offer.

166
00:05:56,066 --> 00:05:58,867
I'd rather not bring it up
if I don't have to, so...

167
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,700
Until then, our secret?

168
00:06:02,300 --> 00:06:03,333
Thanks.

169
00:06:05,133 --> 00:06:07,100
Oh hey, do you want to come with
me to the Christmas markets?

170
00:06:07,233 --> 00:06:08,834
I'm going to pick up
some goodies

171
00:06:08,967 --> 00:06:09,967
for the performers'
gift baskets.

172
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:12,800
Can't, sorry.
I got a thing.

173
00:06:12,934 --> 00:06:14,133
"A thing."

174
00:06:14,266 --> 00:06:17,333
Is that what we call
dating now?

175
00:06:17,467 --> 00:06:19,567
Stop. There's no dating
happening.

176
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:21,900
Right, right, right.
You're not fooling anyone.

177
00:06:22,033 --> 00:06:23,033
Bye.

178
00:06:26,233 --> 00:06:26,900

00:19:19,433 --> 00:19:21,200
Don't know what's worse,
how you look right now

535
00:19:21,333 --> 00:19:23,934
or the fact that you're worried
about how you look right now.

536
00:19:24,066 --> 00:19:25,967
You mean, the guy who used
to use a bottle of hair gel

537
00:19:26,100 --> 00:19:27,300
before every single show?

538
00:19:27,433 --> 00:19:28,200
[laughs]

539
00:19:28,333 --> 00:19:29,166
Oh, my gosh, yes.

540
00:19:29,300 --> 00:19:30,567
How many times
before a gig did I hear

541
00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:31,700
"Claire, I forgot my hair gel."

542
00:19:31,834 --> 00:19:33,066
Okay, the slick look was in.

543
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,700
No. More than once I had to tell
a club owner to move the lights

544
00:19:35,834 --> 00:19:37,600
because we were worried
your hair was a fire hazard.

545
00:19:37,734 --> 00:19:38,900
[laughs]

546
00:19:39,033 --> 00:19:40,100
Okay, this is fun.

547
00:19:40,233 --> 00:19:41,266
Um...

548
00:19:42,166 --> 00:19:44,333
Claire, to what do we owe
the pleasure?

549
00:19:47,867 --> 00:19:49,533
Do you mind
if we take a walk?

550
00:19:49,667 --> 00:19:51,400
Oh uh, yeah sure.

551
00:19:51,533 --> 00:19:53,700
Just let me change and grab
one of these for the road.

552
00:19:53,834 --> 00:19:54,834
Hey!

553
00:19:58,333 --> 00:20:00,600
Wow, the Wishing Tree.

554
00:20:00,734 --> 00:20:04,300
Haven't been there in forever.
Last time was probably with you.

555
00:20:04,433 --> 00:20:06,100
Yeah. I think that was
when you wished

556
00:20:06,233 --> 00:20:07,467
that Wild Lynx would
make it big.

557
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,200
Jeez. Sounds so cringey now.

558
00:20:11,333 --> 00:20:12,900
What was your wish?

559
00:20:13,033 --> 00:20:16,500
That I'd be right there with you
as your manager.

560
00:20:19,033 --> 00:20:21,600
I'm on fire today.

561
00:20:21,734 --> 00:20:23,200
-I'm sorry.
-No, it's fine.

562
00:20:23,333 --> 00:20:27,100
Listen, I'm... I'm not here
to talk about all that.

563
00:20:27,233 --> 00:20:28,467
Okay.

564
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,734
So, rebooking the show has been
a bit tougher than I thought,

565
00:20:32,867 --> 00:20:38,400
and I what I wanted to ask you
is... this is hard.

566
00:20:38,533 --> 00:20:39,967
Okay...

567
00:20:40,834 --> 00:20:44,834
Do you think Wild Lynx
could headline for me?

568
00:20:47,266 --> 00:20:47,900
[sighs]

569
00:20:48,033 --> 00:20:50,533
We can't. I'm sorry.

570
00:20:50,667 --> 00:20:51,867
What?

571
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,533
I had to meditate before I came
here just to get Zen enough

572
00:20:53,667 --> 00:20:55,600
to ask you this favor
and now you're saying no?

573
00:20:55,734 --> 00:20:58,734
Well, look... If it was up to me
it'd be a yes in a second.

574
00:20:58,867 --> 00:21:03,100
But... the band isn't
getting along.

575
00:21:03,233 --> 00:21:05,800
Well, no, it's... it's just me
and Alistair.

576
00:21:05,934 --> 00:21:07,967
We're not speaking
at the moment.

577
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,867
Oh. Why?

578
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,667
It's complicated.

579
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,500
But that's the real reason we
came out here for the holidays.

580
00:21:14,633 --> 00:21:17,133
Give ourselves some space.

581
00:21:17,266 --> 00:21:20,033
Gosh. I'm sorry.

582
00:21:22,133 --> 00:21:24,000
If you don't mind my asking,

583
00:21:24,133 --> 00:21:25,467
why are you putting so much
pressure on yourself

584
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,333
for the show this year?

585
00:21:27,467 --> 00:21:29,667
It's usually much more low-key.
Couldn't you just do that?

586
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,667
No, I, I can't.

587
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:36,300
Um, I'm on my final interview
for my dream job

588
00:21:36,433 --> 00:21:39,166
at The Emperor Resorts
in Las Vegas.

589
00:21:39,300 --> 00:21:40,934
-Really?
-Yeah.

590
00:21:41,066 --> 00:21:42,500
They're sending a rep
to see the show

591
00:21:42,633 --> 00:21:45,033
so, it can't just be
run of the mill.

592
00:21:45,166 --> 00:21:47,700
Ugh, everything was on track
until Ashley Burns cancelled

593
00:21:47,834 --> 00:21:50,200
and it all imploded.

594
00:21:50,333 --> 00:21:55,500
Huh. Okay. So, Vegas.

595
00:21:55,633 --> 00:21:57,767
What? You knew I never intended
to stay at the inn.

596
00:21:57,900 --> 00:22:02,900
I mean, I've loved it,
of course, but after we...

597
00:22:03,033 --> 00:22:04,000
Broke up.

598
00:22:04,133 --> 00:22:07,934
Yes, that. But after we stopped
working together

599
00:22:08,066 --> 00:22:13,433
I realized that my real passion
was putting on live events.

600
00:22:13,567 --> 00:22:17,433
Seeing the joy it brings people.

601
00:22:17,567 --> 00:22:20,000
And at The Emperor I'd be able
to do that full-time,

602
00:22:20,133 --> 00:22:22,400
working with the best
in the business.

603
00:22:22,533 --> 00:22:25,734
So, if I don't make the move now
I might never get another shot.

604
00:22:25,867 --> 00:22:28,333
What does your dad think?

605
00:22:28,467 --> 00:22:31,333
He doesn't know. I knew it
would upset him.

606
00:22:31,467 --> 00:22:35,533
I didn't want to say anything
unless it was actually
going to happen,

607
00:22:35,667 --> 00:22:40,934
and now it appears
that it won't, so...

608
00:22:42,567 --> 00:22:45,367
Look. I know a ton of people
in the industry.

609
00:22:45,500 --> 00:22:47,367
Maybe I could
make some calls.

610
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:49,400
I don't know. See if
anybody's available.

611
00:22:49,533 --> 00:22:51,567
You don't have to do that.
I'll figure it out.

612
00:22:53,734 --> 00:22:57,400
What if we call it my Christmas
present to you?

613
00:22:57,533 --> 00:22:59,934
-Okay.
-Okay.

614
00:23:00,133 --> 00:23:03,900
Fine. Um, thank you.

615
00:23:04,033 --> 00:23:05,800
Of course.

616
00:23:05,934 --> 00:23:08,000
I mean, I was planning
on catching up on sleep

617
00:23:08,133 --> 00:23:10,734
for the first time in,
you know, six years.

618
00:23:10,867 --> 00:23:11,700
Stop it.

619
00:23:11,834 --> 00:23:13,533
Yeah, no your thing sounds
fun though.

620
00:23:18,533 --> 00:23:19,667
Wow.

621
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,834
I am totally flashing back
to that Christmas Eve concert

622
00:23:21,967 --> 00:23:23,967
we played in senior year
of college.

623
00:23:24,100 --> 00:23:26,600
That one where Chaos threw
his drumsticks into the crowd

624
00:23:26,734 --> 00:23:29,333
and basically knocked out
that old lady?

625
00:23:29,467 --> 00:23:32,433
Yeah. He uh, he stopped
doing that.

626
00:23:32,567 --> 00:23:34,633
Peppermint latte, right?

627
00:23:35,166 --> 00:23:38,900
Yes. That's right.
Um, thanks.

628
00:23:41,066 --> 00:23:44,734
So, um, what are you
doing here?

629
00:23:44,867 --> 00:23:46,100
I got some good news

630
00:23:46,233 --> 00:23:47,767
and I thought I'd come
tell you in person.

631
00:23:47,900 --> 00:23:49,400
Oh, you patched things up
with Alistair

632
00:23:49,533 --> 00:23:51,567
and Wild Lynx can play
the show?

633
00:23:51,700 --> 00:23:53,300
-No.
-Darn it.

634
00:23:53,433 --> 00:23:55,633
Do you know the group
Fleur Du Ciel?

635
00:23:55,767 --> 00:23:58,800
Yeah, the acrobat group
out of San Francisco?

636
00:23:58,934 --> 00:24:00,400
They're awesome. Huge.

637
00:24:00,533 --> 00:24:02,233
We have the same agent so
I called them this morning

638
00:24:02,367 --> 00:24:03,867
and they are not booked
for Christmas Eve

639
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,734
and no one is traveling
for the holidays.

640
00:24:06,867 --> 00:24:09,367
So, I gave them your number and
he's going to be reaching out.

641
00:24:09,500 --> 00:24:11,033
Wait, really?

642
00:24:11,166 --> 00:24:12,567
Wow. Thank you.

643
00:24:12,700 --> 00:24:13,667
[laughs]

644
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,400
Obviously, it's not a done deal

645
00:24:15,533 --> 00:24:18,233
but it's at least a solid lead,
right?

646
00:24:18,367 --> 00:24:19,133
Yeah.

647
00:24:19,266 --> 00:24:20,500
[laughs]

648
00:24:20,633 --> 00:24:23,233
Boy, that does wonders
for my Christmas spirit.

649
00:24:23,367 --> 00:24:24,567
And my Christmas anxiety.

650
00:24:24,700 --> 00:24:25,867
[chuckles]

651
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,100
I've spent the whole morning
basically stalking performers

652
00:24:27,233 --> 00:24:30,033
on social media to see if anyone
happens to be vacationing

653
00:24:30,166 --> 00:24:31,900
in Tahoe for the holidays.

654
00:24:32,033 --> 00:24:32,767
And?

655
00:24:32,900 --> 00:24:36,767
All I could find so far
was this.

656
00:24:37,667 --> 00:24:39,166
#TahoeBabes.

657
00:24:39,300 --> 00:24:42,133
#MomJokes.

658
00:24:42,266 --> 00:24:43,867
[laughs]

659
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,033
Here. Let me see what
I can find.

660
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,333
You know, um,
I was thinking.

661
00:24:51,467 --> 00:24:55,667
Would it be crazy if you did
a solo set?

662
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,800
No one wants to see just
the guitar player.

663
00:24:57,934 --> 00:25:00,100
The mob at the Christmas market
would disagree.

664
00:25:00,233 --> 00:25:02,367
Yeah. I think one of them got
a lock of my hair.

665
00:25:02,500 --> 00:25:04,500
Okay. How about this guy?

666
00:25:06,066 --> 00:25:07,567
Uh, no.

667
00:25:07,700 --> 00:25:09,100
[laughs]

668
00:25:09,233 --> 00:25:11,700
Anyway... I don't have any
of my own material

669
00:25:11,834 --> 00:25:14,800
and Alistair would flip if
I played the band's songs.

670
00:25:14,934 --> 00:25:17,300
Okay, but you don't have
any of your own material?

671
00:25:17,433 --> 00:25:21,700
You're an incredible songwriter.
I thought you loved that.

672
00:25:21,834 --> 00:25:24,633
It's actually this whole issue
with Alistair.

673
00:25:24,767 --> 00:25:29,233
Okay, what do you mean?

674
00:25:29,367 --> 00:25:32,934
Well, because I want
to be writing more.

675
00:25:33,066 --> 00:25:34,000
I have all these ideas,

676
00:25:34,133 --> 00:25:37,033
it's just too hard for me
to focus on the road.

677
00:25:37,166 --> 00:25:40,967
I know plenty of people
can do it but not me.

678
00:25:41,100 --> 00:25:43,300
It just, it feels like there's
always somewhere to be.

679
00:25:43,433 --> 00:25:45,467
Gigs, rehearsals,
airports, promotions.

680
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,767
It's... it's exhausting.

681
00:25:49,900 --> 00:25:53,367
Plus, I don't know, I think
it's starting to wear on me.

682
00:25:53,500 --> 00:25:57,233
So, I told Alistair
that I wanted to cut back
on tour dates.

683
00:25:57,367 --> 00:26:00,433
He accused me of sabotaging
the group,

684
00:26:00,567 --> 00:26:01,467
not being a team player.

685
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:02,700
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

686
00:26:02,834 --> 00:26:07,834
Jeez Alistair.
He's always all or nothing.

687
00:26:07,967 --> 00:26:10,200
How did the other guys feel?

688
00:26:10,333 --> 00:26:12,800
They're staying out of it.
Trying to keep the peace.

689
00:26:12,934 --> 00:26:14,767
Sounds like them.

690
00:26:16,133 --> 00:26:16,967
Yeah, so...

691
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:21,000
Now I just... I don't know
what to do.

692
00:26:24,967 --> 00:26:27,033
Remember when you sang
the first few lines

693
00:26:27,166 --> 00:26:30,800
of "Christmas Island" to me
at The Wishing Tree?

694
00:26:30,934 --> 00:26:33,700
Yeah. I was ready
to scrap it.

695
00:26:33,834 --> 00:26:35,867
You said it was going
to be a big hit.

696
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,967
And it was.

697
00:26:38,100 --> 00:26:40,033
And now it's a perennial
Christmas staple

698
00:26:40,166 --> 00:26:42,000
that literally haunts me
everywhere I go.

699
00:26:42,133 --> 00:26:43,800
[laughs]

700
00:26:43,934 --> 00:26:46,700
Anyway, all I know
is you're...

701
00:26:46,834 --> 00:26:49,200
you're too good not
to be writing.

702
00:26:52,066 --> 00:26:53,433
[gasps]

703
00:26:53,567 --> 00:26:55,200
Ricki Page is vacationing
in Tahoe.

704
00:26:55,333 --> 00:26:56,367
The comedian?

705
00:26:56,500 --> 00:26:58,700
Yeah, she'd be great. How are
you going to find where-

706
00:26:58,834 --> 00:27:00,567
The Ridgley.

707
00:27:00,700 --> 00:27:02,367
Okay what?
How did you?

708
00:27:02,500 --> 00:27:05,600
Complimentary ski pass. We give
them out all the time.

709
00:27:05,734 --> 00:27:06,400
[laughs]

710
00:27:06,533 --> 00:27:08,567
Okay. That is some A+ stalking.

711
00:27:08,700 --> 00:27:10,533
Remind me not to get
on your bad side.

712
00:27:10,667 --> 00:27:12,533
Uh... Your worse side.

713
00:27:12,667 --> 00:27:14,934
I'm calling her manager.

714
00:27:15,066 --> 00:27:16,000
Yes, hello.

715
00:27:16,133 --> 00:27:19,266
This is Claire Rhodes
from The Inn on the Lake.

716
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,567
Yes.

717
00:27:20,700 --> 00:27:22,667
Would Ricki Page happen
to be available

718
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,400
for our annual variety show
on Christmas Eve?

719
00:27:29,967 --> 00:27:30,967
Right.

720
00:27:32,667 --> 00:27:35,667
Sure, yeah.
I... I understand.

721
00:27:37,633 --> 00:27:38,667
Thank you.

722
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,233
Thank you so much and um,
Merry Christmas to you too.

723
00:27:44,033 --> 00:27:45,333
Surprise, surprise.

724
00:27:45,467 --> 00:27:48,200
She's all booked up and wouldn't
be interested.

725
00:27:48,333 --> 00:27:51,500
Well, at risk of kicking
a hornet's nest,

726
00:27:51,633 --> 00:27:54,433
we both know that bands don't
always listen to their managers.

727
00:27:54,567 --> 00:27:56,533
I assume it's the same
for comedians.

728
00:27:56,667 --> 00:27:58,433
How do I get to her?

729
00:27:58,567 --> 00:28:00,667
Does Jackson
still work here?

730
00:28:02,266 --> 00:28:04,500
...yeah, of course.

731
00:28:04,633 --> 00:28:06,100
Hey.

732
00:28:06,233 --> 00:28:08,600
Oh, hey Ryan.
Welcome back.

733
00:28:08,734 --> 00:28:12,433
Hey thanks, man.
Good to be here.

734
00:28:12,567 --> 00:28:15,333
So, Claire has a lead on a
replacement act for the show

735
00:28:15,467 --> 00:28:17,233
and she needs your help
with an RSI.

736
00:28:17,367 --> 00:28:18,133
What's an RSI?

737
00:28:18,266 --> 00:28:20,900
Ooh. An RSI?
That's some heavy stuff.

738
00:28:21,033 --> 00:28:21,567
Heavy?

739
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:22,834
What's heavy?

740
00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:24,934
What's The Inn on the Lake's
network like at the Ridgley?

741
00:28:25,066 --> 00:28:26,133
It's doable.

742
00:28:26,266 --> 00:28:29,300
I did a successful FTP
and a PCT there a while back.

743
00:28:29,433 --> 00:28:31,834
But I haven't completed
a RSI in a while.

744
00:28:31,967 --> 00:28:33,100
Let me check my contact.

745
00:28:33,233 --> 00:28:35,166
Great. It's for Ricki Page.

746
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:36,734
Oh, she'll be under

747
00:28:36,867 --> 00:28:37,967
-MIP.
-MIP.

748
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:39,266
One sec.

749
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,000
Okay. Will someone please tell
me what we're talking about?

750
00:28:42,133 --> 00:28:44,767
An RSI stands for
room service interloper.

751
00:28:44,900 --> 00:28:46,900
It's how fans get access
to a celebrity's hotel room

752
00:28:47,033 --> 00:28:48,734
via the concierge network.

753
00:28:48,867 --> 00:28:50,400
Why do I have a feeling
I'm about to pose

754
00:28:50,533 --> 00:28:51,667
as a room service attendant?

755
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,734
Because we're about to pose
as room service attendants.

756
00:28:53,867 --> 00:28:54,667
Sorry, we?

757
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,400
Oh, yeah. No way
am I going to miss this.

758
00:28:57,533 --> 00:28:58,734
It's all set up.

759
00:28:58,867 --> 00:29:02,166
My guy will meet you in the
service hallway by the kitchen.

760
00:29:02,300 --> 00:29:04,533
He'll have a complimentary
bottle of bubbly

761
00:29:04,667 --> 00:29:07,533
and a plate of French fries
to be delivered to Miss Page.

762
00:29:07,667 --> 00:29:08,567
Why fries?

763
00:29:08,700 --> 00:29:10,066
Who doesn't love fries?

764
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:12,400
Also, something called
faux fries

765
00:29:12,533 --> 00:29:14,400
that are made from seaweed.

766
00:29:14,533 --> 00:29:17,900
I'm just uh... I'm going to just
pretend this is normal

767
00:29:18,033 --> 00:29:18,934
and just go with it.

768
00:29:19,066 --> 00:29:21,500
Yeah. That's called an accessory
after the...

769
00:29:21,633 --> 00:29:22,400
I didn't hear anything.

770
00:29:22,533 --> 00:29:23,967
Go for Otis.

771
00:29:28,734 --> 00:29:29,667
.

772
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,834
Probably best if you talk fast
once we're in.

773
00:29:31,967 --> 00:29:33,166
You know what you're going
to say yet?

774
00:29:33,300 --> 00:29:34,567
Yeah, I was going to wing it.

775
00:29:34,700 --> 00:29:35,633
I'm kidding.

776
00:29:35,767 --> 00:29:37,000
No. Ricki's engaged so
I'm going to offer her

777
00:29:37,133 --> 00:29:39,767
two weeks at the honeymoon
suite, spa treatments,
the works.

778
00:29:39,900 --> 00:29:41,934
In addition to her fee. Treat
them like the royal couple.

779
00:29:42,066 --> 00:29:45,133
I like it.
Okay, this is it.

780
00:29:45,266 --> 00:29:46,667
[knocks]

781
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,467
Hey, what do you usually do

782
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:49,767
when someone room service
interlopes you?

783
00:29:49,900 --> 00:29:50,900
Oh, I call security.

784
00:29:51,033 --> 00:29:52,233
Wait, what?

785
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,333
I didn't order anything.

786
00:29:57,467 --> 00:29:59,667
Compliments of the hotel.

787
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,667
Oh. Yeah. Sure. Whatever.

788
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,567
You can set it up
over by the couch.

789
00:30:06,734 --> 00:30:07,734
[clears throat]

790
00:30:18,934 --> 00:30:21,000
[stammers]
So... Miss Page. I...

791
00:30:21,133 --> 00:30:24,300
Have you ever been dumped
at Christmas?

792
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,133
No?

793
00:30:26,266 --> 00:30:28,567
I mean, who does that?

794
00:30:28,700 --> 00:30:30,100
Everyone knows there's
an unwritten rule

795
00:30:30,233 --> 00:30:32,000
that after Thanksgiving you ride
the relationship out

796
00:30:32,133 --> 00:30:34,900
until January even if you're
both miserable.

797
00:30:35,033 --> 00:30:35,867
[sighs]

798
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,000
Look at all these Christmas
presents I bought him.

799
00:30:40,133 --> 00:30:41,567
What a waste.

800
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,800
I'm so sorry.

801
00:30:44,934 --> 00:30:45,934
French fries?

802
00:30:46,066 --> 00:30:47,133
No.

803
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:48,567
Yes.

804
00:30:56,367 --> 00:30:58,500
That bottle's not going
to open itself.

805
00:31:00,867 --> 00:31:03,200
Wait. We know each other?

806
00:31:03,333 --> 00:31:05,133
Nope.

807
00:31:05,266 --> 00:31:06,367
You know what, um...

808
00:31:06,500 --> 00:31:08,667
I don't know if this helps
but I do know what it's like

809
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,233
to have a relationship end
before a big event.

810
00:31:11,367 --> 00:31:13,533
It's the worst.

811
00:31:13,667 --> 00:31:16,333
Right? What happened to you?

812
00:31:16,467 --> 00:31:18,734
Well, I happened to be managing
a local band.

813
00:31:18,867 --> 00:31:20,567
-Dating the lead guitarist.
-Mmm.

814
00:31:20,700 --> 00:31:22,734
Things really started
to take off for them

815
00:31:22,867 --> 00:31:26,633
and then they just got...
difficult.

816
00:31:26,767 --> 00:31:27,633
Heads get bigger.

817
00:31:27,767 --> 00:31:29,233
Pfft. Rock stars.

818
00:31:29,367 --> 00:31:30,900
They're not all bad.

819
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,734
They thought they were
outgrowing me,

820
00:31:33,867 --> 00:31:36,133
started resisting my ideas.

821
00:31:36,266 --> 00:31:39,700
Next thing you know
they dropped me for
a big-time manager.

822
00:31:39,834 --> 00:31:42,967
And then they sign with a label
at a showcase that, get this,

823
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:44,367
I booked for them.

824
00:31:44,500 --> 00:31:46,133
-What?
-Mm-hmm.

825
00:31:47,967 --> 00:31:49,133
It's a rough business out there,
I get it.

826
00:31:49,266 --> 00:31:53,900
But I was at least expecting
some support from my boyfriend

827
00:31:54,033 --> 00:31:56,233
which didn't really happen.

828
00:31:56,367 --> 00:31:57,400
[cork pops loudly]

829
00:32:00,700 --> 00:32:03,433
Needless to say,
we broke up too.

830
00:32:03,567 --> 00:32:05,700
Oh, girl.

831
00:32:05,834 --> 00:32:06,800
Bring it in.

832
00:32:06,934 --> 00:32:08,900
Come on. Yeah. Yeah.
Hug it out.

833
00:32:09,033 --> 00:32:09,667
That's okay.

834
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,066
If I could just chime in here.

835
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,734
There are two sides
to every story.

836
00:32:12,867 --> 00:32:15,333
My side's all she needs
to hear.

837
00:32:15,834 --> 00:32:17,066
He's in training.

838
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,200
Ah.

839
00:32:19,867 --> 00:32:21,467
Thanks.

840
00:32:22,166 --> 00:32:24,233
You know what really got me
back on my feet?

841
00:32:24,367 --> 00:32:26,133
Throwing myself into my work.

842
00:32:26,266 --> 00:32:29,533
It helped me to figure out
what I really wanted

843
00:32:29,667 --> 00:32:33,633
and now I have no regrets.

844
00:32:33,767 --> 00:32:36,567
So, you're saying I should
just forget about him

845
00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:38,867
as quickly as possible.

846
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,900
Not exactly.

847
00:32:41,033 --> 00:32:46,600
Look, Ricki... your gift is
to make people laugh

848
00:32:46,734 --> 00:32:49,633
and help them feel better
about themselves.

849
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:57,734
So, I say why not turn this
relationship egg into eggnog

850
00:32:57,867 --> 00:33:01,300
and use it for material?

851
00:33:01,433 --> 00:33:04,934
-Wow. Room service therapy.
-Mm-hmm.

852
00:33:05,066 --> 00:33:09,200
This is a good hotel.
And you're a good server.

853
00:33:09,333 --> 00:33:11,800
About that.

854
00:33:11,934 --> 00:33:13,166
You're a room service
interloper.

855
00:33:13,300 --> 00:33:14,867
Okay, let me explain.

856
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,266
And now that I think
about it.

857
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,467
Aren't you a musician
or something?

858
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:23,367
Hold on. No way.
You're in Wild Lynx!

859
00:33:23,500 --> 00:33:24,433
Guilty.

860
00:33:24,567 --> 00:33:25,867
Woah.

861
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,333
I gotta hear this.

862
00:33:28,467 --> 00:33:31,600
All right. Christmas Eve
I'll give you 30 minutes.

863
00:33:31,734 --> 00:33:33,500
Now go fill out the rest of
the show with cool acts

864
00:33:33,633 --> 00:33:34,433
so I don't regret this.

865
00:33:34,567 --> 00:33:35,433
Thank you. We will.

866
00:33:35,567 --> 00:33:38,100
It's going to be an amazing
night, trust me.

867
00:33:38,233 --> 00:33:39,834
Are you sure I can
have this?

868
00:33:39,967 --> 00:33:42,133
Totally. It's just a stocking
stuffer.

869
00:33:42,266 --> 00:33:44,867
Okay great.
See you soon.

870
00:33:49,133 --> 00:33:53,166
Hey, for what it's worth,
you all make a good team.

871
00:33:53,300 --> 00:33:56,266
My guy would've never done
something like this for me.

872
00:33:58,567 --> 00:33:59,667
♪

873
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,066
So, one down
and how many to go?

874
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:03,867
Um, two at least.

875
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,433
Can't really call it a variety
show with anything less.

876
00:34:06,567 --> 00:34:09,600
All right. One down,
two to go.

877
00:34:11,867 --> 00:34:13,567
Thank you for coming with me.

878
00:34:13,700 --> 00:34:18,233
I never thought I'd say this,
but you were actually helpful.

879
00:34:18,367 --> 00:34:19,900
No, come on. That was
all you in there.

880
00:34:20,033 --> 00:34:22,900
I forgot how good you were
in a room.

881
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,934
Uh look, um...

882
00:34:27,066 --> 00:34:32,266
I wanted to say what you said
to Ricki in there was true

883
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:36,266
and I'm sorry...
for everything.

884
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,166
We really did think signing
with a more established manager

885
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:41,333
was a good move at the time.

886
00:34:41,467 --> 00:34:45,533
But did we have to?
I don't know.

887
00:34:45,667 --> 00:34:48,600
I think the real problem was
I thought we could separate

888
00:34:48,734 --> 00:34:50,433
our personal and business
relationship

889
00:34:50,567 --> 00:34:58,233
and that was naive and unfair,
and I'm sorry.

890
00:34:58,367 --> 00:34:59,400
Thanks.

891
00:35:02,233 --> 00:35:04,433
You know, honestly
what ended up happening

892
00:35:04,567 --> 00:35:06,600
was probably for the best.

893
00:35:06,734 --> 00:35:09,600
I mean, the last thing anyone
wanted was for it all to derail

894
00:35:09,734 --> 00:35:12,133
because of the lead guitarist's
girlfriend.

895
00:35:12,266 --> 00:35:14,266
You were so much more
than that.

896
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,266
I'm just saying.
You became a huge success

897
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,333
and got to share your music
with the world

898
00:35:19,467 --> 00:35:21,567
and it allowed me
to figure out

899
00:35:21,700 --> 00:35:24,500
that I'm good not
managing bands.

900
00:35:24,633 --> 00:35:25,800
Or your egos.

life on the road.

903

That makes two of us.

904
00:35:33,567 --> 00:35:36,467
To um, letting bygones
be bygones?

905
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,467
No better time than Christmas.

906
00:35:42,266 --> 00:35:44,300
So, are you going to open that?
See what Ricki Page got you?

907

Oh, no way.

908
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,100
I'm saving it for the white
elephant party.

909
00:35:47,233 --> 00:35:48,433
Saves me a trip to the store.

910
00:35:48,567 --> 00:35:50,467
Ah, man. I still have
to do that.

911

of yourself.

I could ever give.

00:41:36,467 --> 00:41:37,633
What is Botox?

1061
00:41:37,767 --> 00:41:38,900
-Oh, I'll take it!
-I'll take it!

1062
00:41:39,033 --> 00:41:39,900
I'll take it!

1063
00:41:40,033 --> 00:41:41,800
[laughing]

1064
00:41:42,467 --> 00:41:45,500
Who in the world
would get that?

1065
00:41:45,633 --> 00:41:47,667
[laughing]
Sorry, we got it
from Ricki Page.

1066
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,400
She said it was a stocking
stuffer.

1067
00:41:49,533 --> 00:41:51,133
If that's just a stocking
stuffer

1068
00:41:51,266 --> 00:41:53,233
I want to go to her
white elephant party.

1069
00:41:53,367 --> 00:41:56,066
She probably hands out
actual white elephants.

1070
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:57,100
You guys hold tight.

1071
00:41:57,233 --> 00:41:58,467
I'm going to go put
the finishing touches

1072
00:41:58,600 --> 00:41:59,367
on the yule log.

1073
00:41:59,500 --> 00:42:01,867
I assume you're ready
for dessert.

1074
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:02,767
[crowd]
Oh, yeah.

1075
00:42:02,900 --> 00:42:03,900
Born ready.

1076
00:42:04,033 --> 00:42:04,700
Let me help.

1077
00:42:04,834 --> 00:42:06,967
-Oh, thanks.
-You too, come.

1078
00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:14,066
Hey, I talked to your agent
about Fleur Du Ciel.

1079
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:15,633
-Oh yeah?
-Yeah.

1080
00:42:15,767 --> 00:42:17,033
They still need to confirm

1081
00:42:17,166 --> 00:42:20,266
but he said that it's basically
just a formality at this point.

1082
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:21,900
-That's amazing.
-I know, right?

1083
00:42:22,033 --> 00:42:25,233
You're a lifesaver for
connecting us, thank you.

1084
00:42:25,367 --> 00:42:26,767
Now I just need to find
one more act.

1085
00:42:26,900 --> 00:42:28,200
Fingers crossed.

1086
00:42:29,133 --> 00:42:32,633
Wait. Is this the one that got
broken from that house party

1087
00:42:32,767 --> 00:42:33,533
you threw in high school?

1088
00:42:33,667 --> 00:42:34,867
Hey, woah, woah. Shh.

1089
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,800
I did not spend hours
supergluing that thing

1090
00:42:36,934 --> 00:42:38,533
back together just to get
outed now.

1091
00:42:38,667 --> 00:42:40,033
Your mom still doesn't know?

1092
00:42:40,166 --> 00:42:41,033
No.

1093
00:42:41,166 --> 00:42:42,066
Well, do your parents know
you're the one

1094
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,934
that knocked their tree over
air-guitaring

1095
00:42:44,066 --> 00:42:45,867
or is the dog still to blame?

1096
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:46,900
Shh!

1097
00:42:47,033 --> 00:42:48,266
Okay, touché.

1098
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:49,433
[laughs]

1099
00:42:52,333 --> 00:42:54,567
Since we're talking about
old memories,

1100
00:42:54,700 --> 00:42:56,400
I saw Alistair today.

1101
00:42:56,533 --> 00:42:58,900
Oh jeez. Where?

1102
00:42:59,033 --> 00:43:01,200
Bumped into him at the Incline
rehearsal space.

1103
00:43:01,333 --> 00:43:05,033
Evidently, we booked it
for the same time. Go figure.

1104
00:43:05,166 --> 00:43:07,500
And how'd it go?

1105
00:43:07,633 --> 00:43:09,133
It was actually really nice.

1106
00:43:09,266 --> 00:43:09,800
Really?

1107
00:43:09,934 --> 00:43:12,100
-No.
-Oh.

1108
00:43:12,233 --> 00:43:13,867
We argued and he left.

1109
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:15,967
You guys will have to figure
it out sooner or later.

1110
00:43:16,100 --> 00:43:17,200
Yeah.

1111
00:43:17,333 --> 00:43:20,333
I think the problem is I don't
even know what that is.

1112
00:43:20,467 --> 00:43:22,367
My entire life I've dreamed
of being

1113
00:43:22,500 --> 00:43:24,867
in a successful rock band
and I did it.

1114
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,533
And now I'm worried

1115
00:43:26,667 --> 00:43:30,433
if I actually leave them
to focus on writing,

1116
00:43:30,567 --> 00:43:32,667
I'll realize it was a mistake.

1117
00:43:33,500 --> 00:43:35,533
And it might be.

1118
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:38,800
Gee. Thanks for the pep talk.

1119
00:43:38,934 --> 00:43:41,667
No, but you never know
if you don't try.

1120
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:47,600
If writing is what makes you
truly happy it's worth the risk.

1121
00:43:47,734 --> 00:43:52,567
Sometimes you gotta, you know,
shake it up.

1122
00:43:55,433 --> 00:43:57,100
Oh, I... I was just going to
um...

1123
00:43:57,233 --> 00:43:58,100
Who wants a slice?

1124
00:43:58,233 --> 00:44:01,767
-Slice this. Get it served.
-Got plates now.

1125
00:44:02,967 --> 00:44:05,033
Oh, honey, honey.
Hold on. Come here.

1126
00:44:05,166 --> 00:44:06,100
Yeah, here. What?

1127
00:44:06,233 --> 00:44:08,834
Just shh, shhh. Just stay still,
Just stay still.

1128
00:44:08,967 --> 00:44:10,533
Just stay still, just stay
still. Don't move.

1129
00:44:10,667 --> 00:44:11,667
What happening here?

1130
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:12,900
-Oh, oh, oh.
-What?

1131
00:44:13,033 --> 00:44:16,533
Two tickets for the Inphonous
concert tomorrow night.

1132
00:44:16,667 --> 00:44:17,767
What? How did...?

1133
00:44:17,900 --> 00:44:18,600
Really?

1134
00:44:18,734 --> 00:44:19,600
Merry Christmas, honey.

1135
00:44:19,734 --> 00:44:23,000
Ahhhhh! I love them!

1136
00:44:23,133 --> 00:44:23,800
Wow.

1137
00:44:23,934 --> 00:44:26,367
I love you too
but I love them!

1138
00:44:26,500 --> 00:44:28,166
Got some competition there,
Ryan.

1139
00:44:28,300 --> 00:44:30,600
Oh, I lost that contest
a long time ago.

1140
00:44:30,734 --> 00:44:31,533
Archie: Yeah.

1141
00:44:31,667 --> 00:44:33,367
Oh no, come on.
You guys are great.

-At Reno.
-Reno, yeah.

Well, it's a secret fan club

Would you mind if I
tagged along?

1150

-Sure.
-Not at all.

sends us a postcard

from every city they play in?

You're embarrassing him, Joyce.

Ryan had a girlfriend.

1172

Why didn't we drive separately?

Any new love interests

One of us runs interference
while the other sneaks in?

too once.

She was excellent.

They fired me.

1237

Christmas Eve variety show.

1255

I had Ashley Burns headlining.

round out the evening perfectly.

told you we fly home tomorrow.

to be with your families

1278

happy to fly out your families.

Christmas together.

I promise you, if you come
spend Christmas with our family,

1281

you'll end up loving it
just as much as I do.

You know what?
Let's do it.

1283

Yeah. Our parents don't get
to see us perform

1406
00:54:53,700 --> 00:54:54,567
About Wild Lynx.

1407
00:54:54,700 --> 00:54:57,433
And I just... I wish things
weren't so rocky

1408
00:54:57,567 --> 00:54:59,066
between the two of you
right now.

1409
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,033
Yeah well, I'm not sure what
he thought being in a band

1410
00:55:01,166 --> 00:55:04,233
was going to be like, but we
all made a commitment, so.

1411
00:55:04,367 --> 00:55:08,834

1413

As I found out myself,
what we want when we're younger

1414
00:55:14,033 --> 00:55:16,500
isn't always the same
when we get older.

1415
00:55:16,633 --> 00:55:19,467
Sure, but that doesn't mean
he can just bail, you know?

1416
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:20,700
He's our lead guitarist.

1417
00:55:20,834 --> 00:55:22,367
What he does affects
the rest of us.

I hear you, I totally do.

1419
00:55:24,633 --> 00:55:28,033
But Wild Lynx is more than
any individual member.

Even the lead singer.

1421
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,300

maybe try to be open

1422

Hey Otis. I'm fine, just having
a bit of a dilemma.

1758
01:11:41,967 --> 01:11:43,433
Anything I can do to help?

1759
01:11:43,567 --> 01:11:47,166
Have you ever had to choose
between two great options?

1760
01:11:47,300 --> 01:11:48,800
Only every day.

1761
01:11:48,934 --> 01:11:50,166

01:11:50,300 --> 01:11:52,133
"Otis, what side of the line
is your favorite?"

1763
01:11:52,266 --> 01:11:53,834
And I say both can be great

1764
01:11:53,967 --> 01:11:55,200

you're looking for.

the Spring Mountains in Nevada.

Neither one's better.

going to be there with you.

Can I talk to you for a second?

1932
01:19:51,467 --> 01:19:52,467
Excuse us.

1933
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:53,600
Yeah.

1934
01:19:54,934 --> 01:19:55,667
Dad I...

1935
01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:59,834
Sweetheart, I am so proud
of you.

1936
01:19:59,967 --> 01:20:01,100
Thank you.

1937
01:20:01,233 --> 01:20:04,633
I got to say, what you' managed
to do in this last week

1938
01:20:04,767 --> 01:20:08,500
made me realize that back in the
day I didn't have your touch.

1939
01:20:08,633 --> 01:20:10,333
And it got me wondering.

1940
01:20:10,467 --> 01:20:12,033
About what?

1941
01:20:12,166 --> 01:20:14,800
Look, trying to make
this place

1942
01:20:14,934 --> 01:20:18,767
into a regular live
entertainment operation
would be difficult.

1943
01:20:18,900 --> 01:20:23,433
And some people would say "if
it ain't broke, don't fix it."

1944
01:20:23,567 --> 01:20:26,700
But I can see now that if anyone
can do it, it's you.

1945
01:20:26,834 --> 01:20:29,767
So, if you'd want to stay

1946
01:20:29,900 --> 01:20:32,633
I'll help you with whatever
you need to make it happen.

1947
01:20:32,767 --> 01:20:36,867
Dad, I...

1948
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:38,667
Wow.

1949
01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:40,467
Incredible show, Claire.

1950
01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:41,367
Um...

1951
01:20:41,500 --> 01:20:43,500
You know, I knew how talented
you were

1952
01:20:43,633 --> 01:20:48,033
but I have to say this
absolutely blew me away.

1953
01:20:48,166 --> 01:20:49,033
I'll let you two catch up.

1954
01:20:49,166 --> 01:20:52,033
-Andre, nice to meet you.
-Good to meet you.

1955
01:20:52,166 --> 01:20:53,066
Thank you.

1956
01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:54,834
That... that means the world
coming from you.

1957
01:20:54,967 --> 01:20:58,266
Look Claire, the job
is obviously yours.

1958
01:20:58,400 --> 01:20:59,700
Now we would be
absolutely thrilled

1959
01:20:59,834 --> 01:21:02,000
to have you join us
in Vegas.

1960
01:21:02,133 --> 01:21:03,633
So, what do you say?

1961
01:21:07,567 --> 01:21:11,667
[strumming guitar softly]

1962
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:14,567
-Hey.
-Hey.

1963
01:21:14,700 --> 01:21:15,934
What are you playing?

1964
01:21:16,066 --> 01:21:18,767
Nothing. Just an idea.

1965
01:21:18,900 --> 01:21:20,333
Already writing another song.

1966
01:21:20,467 --> 01:21:22,467
When you're in the flow.

1967
01:21:23,867 --> 01:21:25,567
Congrats on the job.

1968
01:21:25,700 --> 01:21:27,367
You're going to be great.

1969
01:21:27,500 --> 01:21:29,333
Yeah, thanks.

1970
01:21:29,467 --> 01:21:35,600
I, um, I would've been great.

1971
01:21:35,734 --> 01:21:37,367
Sorry?

1972
01:21:37,500 --> 01:21:39,934
I turned it down.

1973
01:21:40,066 --> 01:21:41,834
Claire, are you crazy?

1974
01:21:41,967 --> 01:21:44,934
Maybe. Yeah, probably.
Yes.

1975
01:21:45,066 --> 01:21:46,533
I don't know.

1976
01:21:46,667 --> 01:21:49,700
The Emperor would have been
an incredible experience.

1977
01:21:49,834 --> 01:21:52,166
I would've immediately gotten
to do everything I dreamed of.

1978
01:21:52,300 --> 01:21:59,100
But this hotel is my family.

1979
01:21:59,233 --> 01:22:00,900
My home.

1980
01:22:01,033 --> 01:22:03,000
And Dad even said he'd be
willing to help make

1981
01:22:03,133 --> 01:22:04,600
live music happen
here again.

1982
01:22:04,734 --> 01:22:07,500
So, if there's a chance
I could turn this place

1983
01:22:07,633 --> 01:22:10,600
into a destination that big acts
want to come to year round.

1984
01:22:10,734 --> 01:22:15,967
I mean, I'd be crazier
not to try, right?

1985
01:22:16,100 --> 01:22:17,266
[laughs]

1986
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:23,600
And then who knows what this
place could be like in 10 years.

1987
01:22:23,734 --> 01:22:27,266
I'm excited to find out.

1988
01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:29,767
And I'd be lying if I said

1989
01:22:29,900 --> 01:22:32,633
that was the only thing
keeping me here.

1990
01:22:32,767 --> 01:22:34,500
Well, I'd be lying if I said

1991
01:22:34,633 --> 01:22:37,533
writing was the only thing
keeping me here.

1992
01:22:41,433 --> 01:22:42,767
I don't think those two kids

1993
01:22:42,900 --> 01:22:45,734
at The Wishing Tree
all those years ago

1994
01:22:45,867 --> 01:22:49,100
could've imagined that this is
where they would end up.

1995
01:22:49,233 --> 01:22:52,233
[laughs]

1996
01:22:53,100 --> 01:22:56,834
If I could make one
wish right now,

1997
01:22:56,967 --> 01:23:00,300
I'd wish to be here with you.

1998
01:23:00,433 --> 01:23:03,033
Couldn't have said it
better myself.

1999
01:23:03,166 --> 01:23:05,633
Merry Christmas, Ryan.

2000
01:23:05,767 --> 01:23:07,633
