OK, Leo, let's get ready.

00:00:28,028 --> 00:00:29,029
Come here.

00:00:29,942 --> 00:00:31,291
All right, Pixie
is all good to go.

7
00:00:31,292 --> 00:00:32,422
Great.

8
00:00:32,423 --> 00:00:33,729
Are the little gift
bags in the car?

9
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:35,164
Yeah, all packed away.

10
00:00:35,165 --> 00:00:36,166
Thanks, James.

How about down here?

14
00:00:51,181 --> 00:00:52,661
Yeah, I can feel that.

15
00:00:57,100 --> 00:00:58,144
Oh, hey, Caleb.

16
00:00:58,145 --> 00:00:59,275
Hi.

17
00:00:59,276 --> 00:01:00,669
I'm sorry I'm early.

18
00:01:00,930 --> 00:01:02,061
No, you're fine.
I'll take you back.

19
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:03,063
Come on.

20
00:01:03,324 --> 00:01:05,413
And bring it back.

21
00:01:06,849 --> 00:01:07,806
Great.

22
00:01:08,546 --> 00:01:11,723
So, how have the exercises
been going at home?

23
00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:13,160
Fine.

24
00:01:13,899 --> 00:01:15,378
How's the walking part going?

25
00:01:15,379 --> 00:01:16,424
OK.

26
00:01:16,685 --> 00:01:18,468
Do you have anyone
at home to help

27
00:01:18,469 --> 00:01:20,297
steady you, your mom or dad?

00:01:21,255 --> 00:01:22,256
They flew back to Kansas.

00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:23,561
Already?

30
00:01:24,301 --> 00:01:25,302
I needed some quiet.

31
00:01:25,911 --> 00:01:27,522
So, who's helping you?

32
00:01:28,349 --> 00:01:29,566
I can do it on my own.

33
00:01:29,567 --> 00:01:30,567

34
00:01:30,568 --> 00:01:31,568
Thanks for having us back.

00:01:33,223 --> 00:01:34,354
Oh, great.

00:01:34,355 --> 00:01:35,572
The dogs are here.

00:01:35,573 --> 00:01:37,053
They come by every
year at Christmas time.

39
00:01:37,836 --> 00:01:40,577
OK, so go ahead and
start on leg raises

40
00:01:40,578 --> 00:01:42,231
and I'll get some
resistance bands,

41
00:01:42,232 --> 00:01:43,668
and then I'll meet
you over there.

How long have you had her?

00:01:55,898 --> 00:01:57,595
I've had her for
about two years now.

49
00:01:57,943 --> 00:01:59,075
Such a good boy.

50
00:01:59,554 --> 00:02:00,511

Good boy.

70
00:02:45,295 --> 00:02:46,992
So, can I tell you about him?

71
00:02:47,558 --> 00:02:48,559
Yeah.

72
00:02:49,212 --> 00:02:51,605
Leo here was at
the shelter, and when

73
00:02:51,606 --> 00:02:54,434
I would tidy his kennel,
he'd sit by my side,

74
00:02:54,435 --> 00:02:55,827
just smiling and waiting.

75
00:02:56,176 --> 00:02:59,743
[LAUGHS] And then he would
lick my hand afterwards,

76
00:02:59,744 --> 00:03:01,093
kind of like he
was saying thanks.

77
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:04,835
And I would take him on walks
and he would then look up

78
00:03:04,836 --> 00:03:07,098
every few steps,
like checking to see

79
00:03:07,099 --> 00:03:08,666
if I was as happy as he was.

80
00:03:09,101 --> 00:03:11,887
And, I wanted him to
be happy all the time.

81
00:03:12,757 --> 00:03:16,370
So I adopted him and ended
up finding my best friend.

82
00:03:17,153 --> 00:03:18,763
Well, it sounds like
you're both pretty lucky.

83
00:03:19,068 --> 00:03:20,503
Yeah.

84
00:03:20,504 --> 00:03:23,071
Now, he loves coming on
visits, and he loves Christmas.

85
00:03:23,072 --> 00:03:24,116
How can you tell?

86
00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:27,554
His tail wags more,
and he loves to take

87
00:03:27,555 --> 00:03:28,773
naps by the Christmas tree.

88
00:03:29,078 --> 00:03:30,948
How do you know he's
not just finding a warmer

89
00:03:30,949 --> 00:03:32,428
spot in the wintertime?

90
00:03:32,429 --> 00:03:35,083
Because he'll nap by the
Christmas tree at my apartment

91
00:03:35,084 --> 00:03:36,128
and at the shelter.

92
00:03:36,912 --> 00:03:39,218
And I even moved the
trees around each year.

93
00:03:39,219 --> 00:03:40,872
And he always
goes back to them.

94
00:03:41,743 --> 00:03:42,744
Quirky dog.

95
00:03:43,310 --> 00:03:44,876

fun Christmas plans?

Not really.

99
00:03:54,495 --> 00:03:56,931
It's probably hard to
focus on anything when you're

100
00:03:56,932 --> 00:03:58,150
working so hard to get better.

101
00:03:59,064 --> 00:04:00,457
Yeah, it's hard to ignore.

102
00:04:02,633 --> 00:04:04,331

00:04:26,353 --> 00:04:27,397
And what are you doing?

113
00:04:28,442 --> 00:04:29,443
I am--

114
00:04:32,010 --> 00:04:33,011
I don't know.

115
00:04:34,012 --> 00:04:35,013
Come on.

116

There's no right
or wrong answer.

117
00:04:37,364 --> 00:04:38,321
Fine.

118
00:04:40,628 --> 00:04:43,326
I am outside.

119
00:04:46,590 --> 00:04:47,591
Is that it?

120
00:04:47,896 --> 00:04:49,113
I'm still thinking.

121
00:04:49,114 --> 00:04:50,159
OK sorry.

122
00:04:50,464 --> 00:04:51,421
Keep going.

123
00:04:51,987 --> 00:04:54,206
I'm on a mountain
with fresh snow.

124
00:04:55,599 --> 00:04:59,211
And the air is
cold, but I like it.

125
00:05:00,256 --> 00:05:02,040
And I'm at the top of
a slope looking down.

126
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:04,434
And I'm ready to ski.

127
00:05:05,957 --> 00:05:06,958
I like that.

128
00:05:10,179 --> 00:05:11,441
So you're a skier?

129
00:05:12,312 --> 00:05:14,356
I've been a few
times, but it's

130
00:05:14,357 --> 00:05:16,140
more so that I'd
be able to do it,

131
00:05:16,141 --> 00:05:19,101
and I wouldn't be worried about
my leg being weak or scarred.

132
00:05:20,624 --> 00:05:23,018
Maybe one day you won't
even think about it.

133
00:05:25,237 --> 00:05:26,717
There's more to you
than your hardest days.

134
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,721
Like what?

135
00:05:31,548 --> 00:05:36,118
Like your smile,
it's a great one.

136
00:05:37,424 --> 00:05:39,207
See, don't make me
get out my mirror.

137
00:05:39,208 --> 00:05:40,252
Please, don't.

138
00:05:40,514 --> 00:05:42,211
I will take your word for it.

139
00:05:42,603 --> 00:05:43,560
Good.

140
00:05:44,387 --> 00:05:46,346
And where would
you be at Christmas?

141
00:05:47,259 --> 00:05:52,700
I would be inside a cozy
cabin sitting by a warm fire.

142
00:05:53,614 --> 00:05:54,615
And I'd be painting.

143
00:05:55,616 --> 00:05:56,791
And what's the painting of?

144
00:05:59,837 --> 00:06:01,752
Leo napping by
a Christmas tree.

145
00:06:04,059 --> 00:06:05,060
Are you an artist.

146
00:06:05,539 --> 00:06:07,409
No, maybe if things
were different.

147
00:06:07,410 --> 00:06:09,804
But I'm doing what I
need to do right now.

148
00:06:10,587 --> 00:06:13,851
I do paint for fun every now
and then when I have time.

149
00:06:14,852 --> 00:06:17,419
Well, I'd like to
see that painting.

150
00:06:17,420 --> 00:06:18,465
Really?

151
00:06:20,336 --> 00:06:22,206
Well, if I do it, you'll
have to stop by the shelter

152
00:06:22,207 --> 00:06:23,252
to see it.

153
00:06:23,644 --> 00:06:24,600
You'd hang it up there?

154
00:06:24,601 --> 00:06:27,169
Sure, at least
at Christmas time.

155
00:06:28,257 --> 00:06:29,258
Hi, there.

156
00:06:29,650 --> 00:06:30,651
Hello.

157
00:06:31,173 --> 00:06:33,784
Well, I guess I should
stop disturbing you.

158
00:06:34,176 --> 00:06:37,787
Thank you, I mean,
for stopping by,

159
00:06:37,788 --> 00:06:38,876
not for disturbing me.

160
00:06:40,138 --> 00:06:41,139
I'm glad we got a chat.

161
00:06:41,836 --> 00:06:43,271
Anytime you want
to say hi to Leo

162
00:06:43,272 --> 00:06:46,492
or any of the other animals,
stop by the shelter.

163
00:06:46,493 --> 00:06:47,537
OK.

164
00:06:49,321 --> 00:06:50,322
Thank you.

165
00:06:51,323 --> 00:06:52,324
Merry Christmas, Caleb.

166
00:06:53,500 --> 00:06:54,631
Merry Christmas.

167
00:06:55,153 --> 00:06:56,154
Come on, Leo.

168
00:06:59,506 --> 00:07:02,159
NURSE 1: All right, the
red one or the purple one?

169
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,207
[MUSIC PLAYING]

170
00:07:14,129 --> 00:07:15,346
Thank you so much, Pastor.

171
00:07:15,347 --> 00:07:16,391
You take care.

172
00:07:16,392 --> 00:07:17,392
See you Sunday.

173
00:07:17,393 --> 00:07:18,438
OK, bye.

174
00:07:19,874 --> 00:07:22,354
Maybe some wood glue
would help secure it.

175
00:07:22,659 --> 00:07:24,094
I have a thicker
bolt in place.

176
00:07:24,095 --> 00:07:25,445
It should do the trick.

177
00:07:26,489 --> 00:07:27,577
Thank you for doing this.

178
00:07:27,882 --> 00:07:28,926
No thanks needed.

179
00:07:29,623 --> 00:07:31,101
You want to grab some lunch?

180
00:07:31,102 --> 00:07:32,147
Yeah, sure.

181
00:07:33,148 --> 00:07:35,193
By the way, how's
the job search going?

182
00:07:35,977 --> 00:07:36,978
On hold.

183
00:07:37,369 --> 00:07:38,500
Oh?

184
00:07:38,501 --> 00:07:40,242
What I've been doing
so far has been--

185
00:07:40,547 --> 00:07:41,765
Not your cup of tea?

186
00:07:42,157 --> 00:07:43,244
Yeah.

187
00:07:43,245 --> 00:07:45,072
I think I'm rushing
into the career,

188
00:07:45,073 --> 00:07:47,554
and It's not working out.

189
00:07:47,858 --> 00:07:49,511
That office
bound marketing job

190
00:07:49,512 --> 00:07:51,166
had you climbing up the walls.
- Mm-hmm.

191
00:07:51,427 --> 00:07:52,428
Yep.

192
00:07:52,689 --> 00:07:53,647
This is good.

193
00:07:53,951 --> 00:07:54,952
Take your time.

194
00:07:55,692 --> 00:07:57,519
I remember when
I left the army,

195
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,436
I had this idea that I had to
have everything figured out.

196
00:08:00,871 --> 00:08:02,482
But it's OK to take some time.

197
00:08:02,873 --> 00:08:05,006
It's only been a year
for you, you know?

198
00:08:05,441 --> 00:08:06,354
More than that.

199
00:08:06,355 --> 00:08:08,270
Well, since the
accident, sure.

200
00:08:08,575 --> 00:08:11,272
But then you had your surgery,
and your recovery took

201
00:08:11,273 --> 00:08:12,404
a long time to get through.

202
00:08:14,015 --> 00:08:15,581
Maybe keep an eye
out for something

203
00:08:15,582 --> 00:08:16,887
that's more fulfilling.

204
00:08:18,062 --> 00:08:19,541
Are you trying to get
me to become a pastor?

205
00:08:19,542 --> 00:08:21,761
[LAUGHS] If that's
what you want,

206
00:08:21,762 --> 00:08:24,546
but I think there are
better options for you

207
00:08:24,547 --> 00:08:26,070
that would be more meaningful.

208
00:08:26,418 --> 00:08:28,377
There's always the
veterans groups.

209
00:08:28,725 --> 00:08:31,205
There's somebody that would
need your experience, you know?

210
00:08:31,206 --> 00:08:33,948
You could always
volunteer temporarily.

211
00:08:34,339 --> 00:08:35,340
Maybe.

212
00:08:35,950 --> 00:08:36,951
All right.

213
00:08:37,604 --> 00:08:38,561
Burgers or tacos?

214
00:08:38,996 --> 00:08:40,650
Mm-hmm, burgers.

215
00:08:41,433 --> 00:08:43,392
There's a new place
on Everett Parkway.

216
00:08:43,914 --> 00:08:44,915
Pick me up a combo.

217
00:08:45,176 --> 00:08:46,350
Pick up?

218
00:08:46,351 --> 00:08:48,266
I asked you if you
wanted to grab lunch.

219
00:08:48,615 --> 00:08:50,399
Oh, I walked
right into that one.

220
00:08:50,878 --> 00:08:51,835
It's on me.

221
00:08:53,576 --> 00:08:55,534
Thanks.

222
00:08:55,535 --> 00:08:56,536
Hello.

223
00:08:56,797 --> 00:08:57,753
Hi.
How are you

224
00:08:57,754 --> 00:08:58,842
- Nice to see you.
- You too.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

226
00:09:04,021 --> 00:09:05,022
There.

227
00:09:06,981 --> 00:09:07,982
Is it straight?

228
00:09:09,636 --> 00:09:10,637
You are no help.

229
00:09:12,029 --> 00:09:12,986
Hey, James.

230
00:09:12,987 --> 00:09:14,031
Is this straight?

231
00:09:14,684 --> 00:09:15,685
Close enough.

232
00:09:17,557 --> 00:09:18,601
OK, good.

233
00:09:19,167 --> 00:09:22,257
OK, guys, let's get everyone
something to eat and drink.

234
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,650
[DOOR CREAKING]

235
00:09:24,651 --> 00:09:25,695
Hello.

236
00:09:26,087 --> 00:09:27,043
Hi, Ryan.

237
00:09:27,044 --> 00:09:28,132
I didn't know you were coming.

238
00:09:28,698 --> 00:09:31,874
The best kind of surprise,
especially when you have this.

239
00:09:31,875 --> 00:09:32,920
What's that?

240
00:09:33,268 --> 00:09:34,269
See for yourself.

241
00:09:35,923 --> 00:09:36,924
Oh, wow.

242
00:09:37,794 --> 00:09:39,752
Ryan, you already donated
to the shelter this year.

243
00:09:39,753 --> 00:09:42,189
Yeah, well, my accountant
says I could use the deduction.

244
00:09:42,190 --> 00:09:43,452
So, there you go.

245
00:09:43,974 --> 00:09:44,931
Thank you.

246
00:09:44,932 --> 00:09:45,976
This is so helpful.

247
00:09:46,368 --> 00:09:48,282
The cost of running this
place keeps going up,

248
00:09:48,283 --> 00:09:49,936
especially because
we're at capacity.

249
00:09:49,937 --> 00:09:50,981
Glad I could help.

250
00:09:51,373 --> 00:09:53,375
You put so much time
into this place.

251
00:09:54,115 --> 00:09:55,420
You could use a
break, I'm sure.

252
00:09:55,769 --> 00:09:58,206
Yeah, well, the animals
can always use another break.

253
00:09:58,554 --> 00:10:00,947
Any time I have, I like to
give them extra attention.

254
00:10:00,948 --> 00:10:03,124
But you can't overdo
it and burn yourself out.

255
00:10:03,733 --> 00:10:04,734
I won't.

256
00:10:05,387 --> 00:10:07,606
Well, put that
to good use then.

257
00:10:07,607 --> 00:10:09,695
And take it easy, OK?

258
00:10:09,696 --> 00:10:10,739
I'll try.

259
00:10:10,740 --> 00:10:12,175
And thank you again, really.

260
00:10:12,176 --> 00:10:13,221
Happy to.

261
00:10:14,048 --> 00:10:15,963
Well, I'll see you later.

262
00:10:16,572 --> 00:10:17,617
OK.
Have a great day.

263
00:10:20,228 --> 00:10:21,272
Wasn't that so nice?

264
00:10:21,664 --> 00:10:22,622
Yeah.

265
00:10:23,927 --> 00:10:24,928
I think he likes you.

266
00:10:25,233 --> 00:10:26,669
What?
No, he doesn't.

267
00:10:27,061 --> 00:10:28,540
He's a patient at my
dad's dental practice.

268
00:10:28,802 --> 00:10:31,239
He's just being supportive
of a good cause.

269
00:10:32,544 --> 00:10:33,545
Sure.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

271
00:11:02,357 --> 00:11:03,358
Wait a second.

00:11:25,772 --> 00:11:27,642
[DOOR CREAKING]
- Hi.

273
00:11:27,643 --> 00:11:28,688
How can I help you?

274
00:11:29,689 --> 00:11:31,733
Sorry, you probably
don't remember me.

275
00:11:31,734 --> 00:11:33,649
I was at the Veterans
Clinic this time last year.

276
00:11:33,954 --> 00:11:37,609
And I-- Leo, right?

277
00:11:38,306 --> 00:11:39,307
That's right.

278
00:11:42,963 --> 00:11:44,573
Wait, Caleb.

279
00:11:45,922 --> 00:11:47,576
Yeah, good memory.

280
00:11:48,359 --> 00:11:50,056
Your leg, you're
walking well.

281
00:11:50,057 --> 00:11:51,187
Oh, yeah, thanks.

282
00:11:51,188 --> 00:11:53,929
It took some time,
but it's fine now,

283
00:11:53,930 --> 00:11:54,975
as long as I'm not hiking.

284
00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:57,238
That's good, unless
you love hiking.

285
00:11:59,196 --> 00:12:02,155
So I came by because,
well, I saw the sign

286
00:12:02,156 --> 00:12:05,942
and thought maybe you could
use a hand, like a volunteer.

287
00:12:06,334 --> 00:12:08,423
Oh, yeah, that'd be great.

288
00:12:08,771 --> 00:12:10,120
Volunteers are awesome.

289
00:12:10,468 --> 00:12:12,469
We could sure use the help,
especially with the Christmas

290
00:12:12,470 --> 00:12:13,602
adoption drive coming up.

291
00:12:13,863 --> 00:12:16,038
But it is not glamorous.

292
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:17,387
Is it supposed to be?

293
00:12:17,388 --> 00:12:18,954
I'm just warning you.

294
00:12:18,955 --> 00:12:20,609
I have one person who works
here when he's not in class.

295
00:12:21,044 --> 00:12:23,089
I'm pretty much here all the
time, but an extra set of hands

296
00:12:23,090 --> 00:12:24,307
would be very welcome.

297
00:12:24,308 --> 00:12:25,569
Great.

298
00:12:25,570 --> 00:12:26,788
Well, thanks.

299
00:12:26,789 --> 00:12:29,138
Can I have your
number, you know,

300
00:12:29,139 --> 00:12:31,445
so that we can coordinate
schedules and such.

301
00:12:31,446 --> 00:12:32,752
[LAUGHS] Of course.

302
00:12:36,668 --> 00:12:37,669
OK.

303
00:12:37,931 --> 00:12:39,366
The shelter info
is on the front,

304
00:12:39,367 --> 00:12:40,411
and then my cell's on the back.

305
00:12:40,716 --> 00:12:41,672
Great.

306
00:12:41,673 --> 00:12:42,718
Thank you.

307
00:12:42,979 --> 00:12:44,372

00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:45,721
I'll see you soon.

00:12:57,341 --> 00:12:58,342
Mm-hmm.

00:13:00,214 --> 00:13:01,823
I stopped by an animal
shelter while I was out.

313
00:13:01,824 --> 00:13:03,433
Why?

314
00:13:03,434 --> 00:13:04,957
It was the one that brought
the dogs by the veterans clinic

315
00:13:04,958 --> 00:13:06,132
when I was doing my PT.

316
00:13:06,133 --> 00:13:07,177
That was a while ago.

317
00:13:07,482 --> 00:13:08,875
Yeah, it stuck with me.

318
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,701
I was thinking maybe
it's a good way

319
00:13:10,702 --> 00:13:11,964
for me to keep busy right now.

320
00:13:11,965 --> 00:13:13,140
As a job or?

Like you said, I don't
need to rush into work,

323
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:19,537
but this felt safe
enough for right now.

324
00:13:20,234 --> 00:13:21,712
I think that's
good, especially

00:13:21,713 --> 00:13:25,065
with Christmas, a good time
for friends and family.

00:13:26,370 --> 00:13:27,371
I'm just saying.

00:13:28,242 --> 00:13:29,591
I'm fine on my own.

Anyway, we wanted
to see if you wanted

to come out, if you're not
too busy, just no pressure.

love to have you.

it's this box, too?

stuff in here.

Yep.

Just dig a little.

348
00:14:44,709 --> 00:14:46,363
You could separate
the decorations.

I get lazy when I'm
putting them away.

Valentines and Halloween,

in to help still?

Yeah, he said he
was coaching tonight,

It's a nice thought, but
I'm not sure about that one.

368
00:15:31,539 --> 00:15:33,670
What about all those
statistics about how

369
00:15:33,671 --> 00:15:34,716
many animals need homes?

370
00:15:35,630 --> 00:15:37,718
Guilting people
into adopting,

371
00:15:37,719 --> 00:15:38,763
not the best strategy.

372
00:15:39,373 --> 00:15:40,591
I'm out of ideas, then.

00:15:41,027 --> 00:15:41,984
Hello.

00:15:42,593 --> 00:15:43,985

- Hey.

00:15:43,986 --> 00:15:44,987
OK.

00:15:45,292 --> 00:15:46,380
What do you need me to do?

377
00:15:47,207 --> 00:15:48,643
Too late for
the heavy lifting.

378
00:15:49,165 --> 00:15:51,166
That tree was a
beast to set up.

strong for your size.

I thought you could handle it.

00:15:54,431 --> 00:15:56,606
There should be a couple
more boxes in the back,

Oh, hi.

Hi.

You're early.

Well, actually, you said
you were coming today,

00:16:30,032 --> 00:16:31,641
but I don't think we
pinpointed a time.

00:16:31,642 --> 00:16:32,687
So--

Oh, sorry.

It's fine.

Welcome.

00:16:42,914 --> 00:16:44,437

animals out of their pens

00:16:55,231 --> 00:16:56,276
as much as we can.

408
00:16:56,972 --> 00:16:59,453
Are you comfortable handling
dogs, cats, rabbits?

409
00:16:59,844 --> 00:17:01,889
All the above, at least
I'm willing to try.

410
00:17:01,890 --> 00:17:02,934
Great.

411
00:17:03,413 --> 00:17:05,023
It is not all
playing with animals,

412
00:17:05,024 --> 00:17:06,286
though, so prepare yourself.

Sure, the less glamorous
stuff you warned me about.

414
00:17:09,071 --> 00:17:10,072
I'm ready.

It happens quicker
than I realize.

420
00:17:21,997 --> 00:17:23,693
This is a kind of
enrichment area

421
00:17:23,694 --> 00:17:26,349
so the animals can play, get
wiggles out, and so forth.

422
00:17:26,784 --> 00:17:28,220
Nice.

as well as some dog
treats and toys.

I can give you the normal
chores we ask for help with,

426
00:17:34,575 --> 00:17:37,142

thinking of doing specifically?

skills you have?

00:17:41,408 --> 00:17:42,495
Should I have
brought a resume?

00:17:42,496 --> 00:17:43,583
No.

a lot about you.

What do you like to do?

433
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:48,979
Or why do you
want to volunteer?

434
00:17:48,980 --> 00:17:52,809
Well, after I was
discharged from the army,

435
00:17:52,810 --> 00:17:54,116
I worked in marketing
at one company.

436
00:17:54,856 --> 00:17:56,944
We have been doing
handyman-type stuff, mostly

437
00:17:56,945 --> 00:17:59,251
just helping a friend, more so
than work, but stuff like that.

438
00:17:59,252 --> 00:18:00,253
Cool.

439
00:18:00,557 --> 00:18:04,169
And I wanted to
volunteer because, well,

440
00:18:04,170 --> 00:18:06,824
this stuck with me last year
when you and Leo came to visit.

441
00:18:07,173 --> 00:18:08,130
I'm glad it did.

442

Where's Leo by the way?

00:18:11,002 --> 00:18:12,002

to share the animals story.

home for each animal.

and pretty soon, she asked
me to work there for real.

732
00:29:11,837 --> 00:29:13,577
So you've been working
there since high school?

733
00:29:13,882 --> 00:29:16,101
No, I was away for a
few years for college,

734
00:29:16,102 --> 00:29:17,668
but I came back one summer.

735
00:29:17,973 --> 00:29:20,453
And by then, Cathy's
health wasn't so good,

736
00:29:20,454 --> 00:29:22,630
and the shelter needed
a lot of attention.

737
00:29:22,978 --> 00:29:24,240
She didn't want
to see it closed.

738
00:29:24,545 --> 00:29:26,894
And she always said
that she felt like it

739
00:29:26,895 --> 00:29:28,244
was what God wanted her to do.

740
00:29:28,592 --> 00:29:30,768
But since she
couldn't do it all,

741
00:29:30,769 --> 00:29:31,987
maybe I was meant to take over.

742
00:29:32,553 --> 00:29:33,815
She asked me to run it.

743
00:29:34,250 --> 00:29:35,251
It's a lot of pressure.

744
00:29:35,556 --> 00:29:37,776
Yeah, I felt like
that sometimes.

745
00:29:38,951 --> 00:29:40,821
She passed away a
couple of years ago

746
00:29:40,822 --> 00:29:42,476
and left it to me
to keep it going.

747
00:29:43,346 --> 00:29:44,347
And I haven't looked back.

748
00:29:44,695 --> 00:29:47,001
[LAUGHTER]

749
00:29:47,002 --> 00:29:49,352
So you never wanted
to do something else?

750
00:29:51,137 --> 00:29:52,225
I studied art for a bit.

751
00:29:52,529 --> 00:29:53,530
Oh, that's right.

752
00:29:54,140 --> 00:29:55,097
You like to paint.

753
00:29:55,881 --> 00:29:56,838
I told you that?

754
00:29:57,099 --> 00:29:58,144
Last year.

755
00:29:58,797 --> 00:30:02,451
You and your memory, but yes,
I do like painting and pottery

756
00:30:02,452 --> 00:30:03,497
and things like that.

757
00:30:04,193 --> 00:30:06,543
But I felt like this
was more important.

758
00:30:07,153 --> 00:30:09,241
It's not like I planned it
or thought it would become

759
00:30:09,242 --> 00:30:10,330
such a big part of my life.

760
00:30:10,634 --> 00:30:13,289
But then I started to
see what Cathy meant.

761
00:30:13,986 --> 00:30:16,161
Sometimes God leads you
to where you need to be,

762
00:30:16,162 --> 00:30:18,207
even if it's not what
you expected to end up.

763
00:30:18,817 --> 00:30:20,819
Well, I suppose you're lucky.

764
00:30:21,254 --> 00:30:22,821
It's not easy to know
what to do with your life.

765
00:30:23,691 --> 00:30:24,823
Is that why you
joined the army?

766
00:30:26,389 --> 00:30:27,390
At first, maybe.

767
00:30:27,869 --> 00:30:29,478
I wasn't so sure.

768
00:30:29,479 --> 00:30:31,960
It seemed like a good solution,
but then I really took to it.

769
00:30:32,482 --> 00:30:33,483
Can I ask what happened?

770
00:30:34,441 --> 00:30:35,442
Training accident.

771
00:30:37,009 --> 00:30:38,574
I got rolled in a vehicle
that turned too hard

772
00:30:38,575 --> 00:30:39,880
during a training exercise.

773
00:30:39,881 --> 00:30:41,186
Wow.

774
00:30:41,187 --> 00:30:42,796
Yeah.

775
00:30:42,797 --> 00:30:46,104
Of all things, nine years, and
that's what takes me out of it.

776
00:30:46,105 --> 00:30:47,149
I'm sorry.

777
00:30:48,324 --> 00:30:49,804
Like I said, it
was an accident.

778
00:30:50,500 --> 00:30:51,501
Back to square one.

779
00:30:52,198 --> 00:30:53,199
Starting over.

780
00:30:53,460 --> 00:30:54,461
It's a process.

781
00:30:55,157 --> 00:30:57,158
Well, I'm glad it
brought you to the shelter.

782
00:30:57,159 --> 00:30:58,204
Me, too.

783
00:30:58,465 --> 00:31:02,077
It's been nice,
sometimes loud, but nice.

784
00:31:03,122 --> 00:31:05,080
Yes, that is just
one of the stresses.

785
00:31:06,038 --> 00:31:07,039
What are the others?

786
00:31:07,909 --> 00:31:10,650
Worrying about the animals,
I can't find enough homes

787
00:31:10,651 --> 00:31:13,131
for them, having
enough resources

788
00:31:13,132 --> 00:31:16,483
to take in every animal and
keep them sheltered and happy.

789
00:31:18,093 --> 00:31:20,095
Some days I worry about not
having enough food for them.

790
00:31:22,054 --> 00:31:23,490
It's a lot on your shoulders.

791
00:31:24,491 --> 00:31:25,796
Some days are
easier than others.

792
00:31:28,408 --> 00:31:29,799
I don't think my
parents saw the shelter

793
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,019
as a career at first,
at least not the one

794
00:31:32,020 --> 00:31:33,152
that they imagined for me.

795
00:31:33,804 --> 00:31:36,284
But they see how much
I love the animals,

796
00:31:36,285 --> 00:31:38,505
and they understand
why I need to do it.

797
00:31:39,288 --> 00:31:40,507
They always support me now.

798
00:31:41,551 --> 00:31:43,249
It's nice having
their support.

799
00:31:44,250 --> 00:31:45,251
How about you?

800
00:31:45,512 --> 00:31:46,513
Tell me about your family.

00:31:48,732 --> 00:31:50,125

live in Kansas.

802
00:31:52,388 --> 00:31:53,389
Any siblings?

803
00:31:54,086 --> 00:31:55,087
No.

804
00:31:56,479 --> 00:31:57,959
Are you going there
for Christmas, then?

805
00:31:58,307 --> 00:31:59,569
No, I'll stay here.

00:32:01,484 --> 00:32:02,790

coming to visit you?

without my family around.

You get used to it.

Because of being in the army?

makes me want to see

help over the holidays,

I'll remember that.

823
00:32:41,481 --> 00:32:42,612
How was the shelter today?

824
00:32:42,830 --> 00:32:43,831
Good.

dogs there, you know.

that you're passionate about.

is necessarily a passion,

nice to keep me busy.

than keeping you busy.

00:42:30,591 --> 00:42:31,766
But it's good for them, too.

1094
00:42:36,205 --> 00:42:37,467
Can I ask you something?

1095
00:42:37,903 --> 00:42:38,860
Of course.

1096
00:42:39,382 --> 00:42:41,341
Was your military service
an issue with your family?

1097
00:42:42,951 --> 00:42:43,908
I'm sorry.

1098
00:42:43,909 --> 00:42:45,127
That is none of my business.

1099
00:42:45,475 --> 00:42:46,780
No, it's OK.

1100
00:42:46,781 --> 00:42:48,914
I just I'm not that great
at talking about it.

1101
00:42:49,741 --> 00:42:51,003
But no, they didn't mind.

1102
00:42:51,656 --> 00:42:52,657
They just worried.

1103
00:42:53,745 --> 00:42:55,007
Who wouldn't worry
in their shoes?

1104
00:42:55,398 --> 00:42:58,140
Yeah, but they
were supportive, so.

1105
00:42:58,445 --> 00:42:59,446
Oh.

1106
00:43:00,795 --> 00:43:01,927
You're wondering
what happened.

1107
00:43:02,797 --> 00:43:04,537
I'm sorry.
I'm being nosy.

1108
00:43:04,538 --> 00:43:05,583
No, it's OK.

1109
00:43:07,585 --> 00:43:10,370
[SIGHS] After the
accident, I was--

1110
00:43:11,589 --> 00:43:13,286
well, let's just say I wasn't
that easy to be around.

1111
00:43:15,375 --> 00:43:16,767
I was afraid I wasn't
going to recover,

1112
00:43:16,768 --> 00:43:19,379
and well, I didn't know
what I was going to do next.

1113
00:43:20,902 --> 00:43:23,338
My parents, they-- they kept
trying to make everything

1114
00:43:23,339 --> 00:43:28,039
better, like this relentless
optimism always saying things

1115
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,433
like, "It's all
part of God's plan.

1116
00:43:31,347 --> 00:43:32,348
There's better things ahead.

1117
00:43:33,785 --> 00:43:34,873
You just have to have faith."

1118
00:43:37,310 --> 00:43:40,268
I was raised to
believe in God, but it

1119
00:43:40,269 --> 00:43:42,053
got harder and harder
to keep hearing

1120
00:43:42,054 --> 00:43:43,272
them say it over and over.

1121
00:43:44,839 --> 00:43:47,625
How could something so terrible
be part of his plan, you know?

1122
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,066
Anyway, we had an
argument, a big one.

1123
00:43:55,720 --> 00:43:58,199
And I'll admit it was
more my fault than them,

1124
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:03,771
but [SIGHS] then I
pushed them away.

1125
00:44:05,643 --> 00:44:06,644
There you have it.

1126
00:44:08,254 --> 00:44:09,255
I'm sorry.

1127
00:44:10,517 --> 00:44:12,867
You know, I haven't told
anyone that except for Eli.

1128
00:44:14,477 --> 00:44:15,434
Pastor Eli?

1129
00:44:15,435 --> 00:44:16,523
Yeah.

1130
00:44:17,089 --> 00:44:20,134
We served together, not in
the same capacity, of course,

1131
00:44:20,135 --> 00:44:24,183
but he was the army chaplain,
and we stayed friends.

1132
00:44:26,228 --> 00:44:27,229
I didn't realize that.

1133
00:44:31,190 --> 00:44:33,148
Thank you for telling me.

1134
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:36,761
Yeah.

1135
00:44:38,284 --> 00:44:39,980
[WHOOSH]

1136
00:44:39,981 --> 00:44:41,503
Come in.

1137
00:44:41,504 --> 00:44:42,940
Hey.

1138
00:44:42,941 --> 00:44:44,463
Hi.

1139
00:44:44,464 --> 00:44:45,899
What's up?

1140
00:44:45,900 --> 00:44:47,467
I came as soon as I could.

1141
00:44:48,686 --> 00:44:49,730
Oh, those look yummy.

1142
00:44:50,122 --> 00:44:51,123
Help yourself.

1143
00:44:52,602 --> 00:44:54,561
I'm trying to figure out how
to cut costs at the shelter.

1144
00:44:55,736 --> 00:44:57,259
I thought you already
cut what you could.

1145
00:44:57,651 --> 00:44:59,044
Well, not enough.

1146
00:44:59,435 --> 00:45:01,176
It sounds like you need
to bring more money in.

1147
00:45:01,568 --> 00:45:03,701
Can you raise
prices to adopt?

1148
00:45:04,136 --> 00:45:06,051
No, because it has
the opposite effect.

1149
00:45:06,355 --> 00:45:08,749
Less people adopt, and then I
have more animals to care for.

1150
00:45:09,010 --> 00:45:10,402
Yeah, it makes sense.

1151
00:45:10,403 --> 00:45:13,492
I even got an unexpected
donation, but utilities, dog

1152
00:45:13,493 --> 00:45:15,277
food, rent, it's already gone.

1153
00:45:15,713 --> 00:45:17,236
I'm using my own money
to float the shelter.

1154
00:45:18,063 --> 00:45:19,064
I can't keep this up.

1155
00:45:20,718 --> 00:45:22,023
So, any ideas?

1156
00:45:23,416 --> 00:45:24,590
At your basketball
games, there are

1157
00:45:24,591 --> 00:45:25,897
always banners from sponsors.

1158
00:45:26,506 --> 00:45:27,507
How does that work?

1159
00:45:28,377 --> 00:45:30,683
They pay to have their
logo and information

1160
00:45:30,684 --> 00:45:34,339
shown as sponsors for
the event or school team.

1161
00:45:34,340 --> 00:45:37,169
But we usually have banks
and orthodontist sponsoring.

1162
00:45:37,517 --> 00:45:39,519
I'm not sure it'll
fit for the shelter.

1163
00:45:40,781 --> 00:45:41,782
I was thinking vets.

1164
00:45:42,827 --> 00:45:43,871
That's a good idea.

1165
00:45:44,437 --> 00:45:47,700
Every pet you find a home for
is a potential new patient

1166
00:45:47,701 --> 00:45:48,875
for a veterinarian.

1167
00:45:48,876 --> 00:45:50,138
Exactly what I was thinking.

1168
00:45:50,835 --> 00:45:51,792
What do I do?

1169
00:45:52,140 --> 00:45:53,793
Call up and say, hey,
can I print your name

1170
00:45:53,794 --> 00:45:54,882
in exchange for money?

1171
00:45:55,448 --> 00:45:57,450
I think you'll need to sell
it a little more than that.

1172
00:45:57,755 --> 00:45:59,931
Think about how you got other
donations for the shelter.

1173
00:46:00,670 --> 00:46:02,976
Most came from when Cathy
ran it, and a lot of those

1174
00:46:02,977 --> 00:46:04,457
have already tapered
off over time.

1175
00:46:05,153 --> 00:46:06,285
What about that Ryan guy?

1176
00:46:06,546 --> 00:46:08,722
He's the one who gave
a little extra recently.

1177
00:46:09,549 --> 00:46:10,637
I can't ask for more.

1178
00:46:11,159 --> 00:46:13,771
Well, I'll write some talking
points for a sponsor then.

1179
00:46:14,075 --> 00:46:16,599
And I'll start compiling a
list of our offices to call.

1180
00:46:17,165 --> 00:46:18,166

about how to pick it up.

weren't coming in today.

Yeah, I wasn't,
but I have some news.

1206
00:47:13,221 --> 00:47:15,266
So I reached out to an old
army buddy of mine who's

1207
00:47:15,267 --> 00:47:16,658
to train dogs in the military.

1208
00:47:16,659 --> 00:47:19,009
And long story short, I
told him about the shelter

1209
00:47:19,010 --> 00:47:20,532
and asked if he had
suggestions about getting

1210
00:47:20,533 --> 00:47:21,751
dog food at a better price.

1211
00:47:22,143 --> 00:47:23,100
You did all that?

1212
00:47:23,101 --> 00:47:24,189
Yeah.

1213
00:47:24,537 --> 00:47:26,016
Well, he called and
passed along what we need.

1214
00:47:26,017 --> 00:47:27,061
And well, guess what?

1215
00:47:27,409 --> 00:47:28,932
This one company is
willing to pledge

1216
00:47:28,933 --> 00:47:31,326
a year's donation of food
for all of our cats and dogs.

00:49:41,369 --> 00:49:42,631
Hey, what's going on?

1271
00:49:43,023 --> 00:49:43,981
The animal hospital.

1272
00:49:44,329 --> 00:49:45,330
Did they call?

1273
00:49:45,591 --> 00:49:46,547
Yes.

1274
00:49:46,548 --> 00:49:47,592
Oh, good.

1275
00:49:47,593 --> 00:49:49,028
I wasn't sure if
I was doubling up.

1276
00:49:49,029 --> 00:49:50,943
You might have called
already, but I was driving by

1277
00:49:50,944 --> 00:49:52,510
and thought, why not?

1278
00:49:52,511 --> 00:49:54,817
They signed on to sponsor
the Christmas adoption drive.

1279
00:49:55,035 --> 00:49:55,993
That's great.

1280
00:49:56,341 --> 00:49:57,429
You have no idea.

1281
00:49:58,343 --> 00:50:01,388
Look, are you doing
anything tonight

1282
00:50:01,389 --> 00:50:02,389
No.

1283
00:50:02,390 --> 00:50:03,478
Why?

1284
00:50:03,913 --> 00:50:06,045
My mom always has a Christmas
pie night in December.

1285
00:50:06,046 --> 00:50:07,568
I want you to come.

1286
00:50:07,569 --> 00:50:09,048
We'll make it a celebration.

1287
00:50:09,049 --> 00:50:10,571
OK.

1288
00:50:10,572 --> 00:50:12,095
Yeah, sure.

1289
00:50:12,096 --> 00:50:13,618
Sounds fun.

1290
00:50:13,619 --> 00:50:15,186
I hope this cross
turned out all right.

1291
00:50:15,490 --> 00:50:16,838
I can tell you
right now if it did.

1292
00:50:16,839 --> 00:50:17,839
Oh, no, you don't.

1293
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:18,840
Oh.

1294
00:50:18,841 --> 00:50:20,103
[LAUGHTER]

1295
00:50:20,104 --> 00:50:21,148
Hello.

1296
00:50:21,366 --> 00:50:22,454
Hi, everyone.

1297
00:50:22,715 --> 00:50:23,716
Oh, hi.

1298
00:50:24,108 --> 00:50:25,064
I'm Becca.

1299
00:50:25,065 --> 00:50:26,196
Evan.

1300
00:50:26,197 --> 00:50:27,371
Nice to meet you.

1301
00:50:27,372 --> 00:50:28,589
Hi, Heidi.

1302
00:50:28,590 --> 00:50:29,764
Good to see you again.

1303
00:50:29,765 --> 00:50:30,939
And this is Caleb.

1304
00:50:30,940 --> 00:50:32,245
Caleb, this is my
mom and my dad.

1305
00:50:32,246 --> 00:50:33,291
Pleasure.

1306
00:50:33,508 --> 00:50:35,641
Oh, I'm so glad that
you could join us.

1307
00:50:36,033 --> 00:50:37,424
Amber told us all
about those miracles

1308
00:50:37,425 --> 00:50:38,513
that you worked
for the shelter.

1309
00:50:38,861 --> 00:50:40,298
So you get the first slice.

1310
00:50:41,081 --> 00:50:42,821
Now on Christmas
pie night, we do

1311
00:50:42,822 --> 00:50:44,083
have a little bit
of everything,

1312
00:50:44,084 --> 00:50:45,824
but we like to start
with a proper dinner.

1313
00:50:45,825 --> 00:50:47,218
So we have
shepherd's pie first.

1314
00:50:48,088 --> 00:50:49,350
Sounds delicious.

1315
00:50:50,395 --> 00:50:52,439
OK, well, Margaret,
why don't you

1316
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:53,701
say the blessing on the food.

1317
00:50:53,702 --> 00:50:54,747
Happy to.

1318
00:50:55,530 --> 00:50:57,488
Our gracious
Father in Heaven,

1319
00:50:57,489 --> 00:51:01,448
we are grateful for this fine
meal and the traditions that

1320
00:51:01,449 --> 00:51:04,321
bring us together to
celebrate your son's birth

1321
00:51:04,322 --> 00:51:05,801
at this special time of year.

1322
00:51:06,150 --> 00:51:09,282
We are so pleased that
Caleb could join us.

1323
00:51:09,283 --> 00:51:11,546
Help him to feel at
home here with us.

1324
00:51:12,069 --> 00:51:15,767
Please bless this food as we
know that it is from your hand.

1325
00:51:15,768 --> 00:51:18,117
And we are thankful for all of
the blessings that you give us.

1326
00:51:18,118 --> 00:51:19,162
In Jesus's name.

1327
00:51:19,163 --> 00:51:20,293
Amen.
- Amen.

1328
00:51:20,294 --> 00:51:21,381
Amen

1329
00:51:21,382 --> 00:51:23,035
Well, dig in, everybody.

1330
00:51:23,036 --> 00:51:25,907
There's plenty more, but save
some room for the dessert pies.

1331
00:51:25,908 --> 00:51:27,301
- Thanks, mom.
- Mm-hmm.

1332
00:51:27,649 --> 00:51:30,260
So, Caleb, when you're
not single handedly

1333
00:51:30,261 --> 00:51:32,611
saving the day at the
shelter, what do you do?

1334
00:51:33,307 --> 00:51:34,961
I think Amber gives
me too much credit.

1335
00:51:35,657 --> 00:51:37,442
I help out an old army
buddy at the church.

1336
00:51:37,833 --> 00:51:39,531
Oh, how long
did you serve for?

1337
00:51:39,879 --> 00:51:40,792
Nine years, sir.

1338
00:51:40,793 --> 00:51:41,881
Call me David.

1339
00:51:42,142 --> 00:51:43,622
Amber mentioned that
you had been injured.

1340
00:51:43,883 --> 00:51:44,970
How are you feeling now?

1341
00:51:44,971 --> 00:51:46,015
Mom.

1342
00:51:46,277 --> 00:51:47,190
Pretty much good as new.

1343
00:51:47,191 --> 00:51:48,279
Good.

1344
00:51:48,714 --> 00:51:50,628
Your poor parents must have
been beside themselves.

1345
00:51:50,629 --> 00:51:51,673
This is good pie, mom.

1346
00:51:52,109 --> 00:51:53,065
Thanks, honey.

1347
00:51:53,066 --> 00:51:54,502
So tell us about yourself.

1348
00:51:54,807 --> 00:51:56,025
Amber only tells me so much.

1349
00:51:56,461 --> 00:51:58,853
Oh, we should do that
20-questions thing, you know,

1350
00:51:58,854 --> 00:52:00,768
like what you guys
do when I bring home

1351
00:52:00,769 --> 00:52:01,901
a date to meet the family.

1352
00:52:02,206 --> 00:52:03,163
Great idea.

1353
00:52:03,424 --> 00:52:04,425
What do you think?

1354
00:52:04,773 --> 00:52:06,035
Oh, sure, why not?

1355
00:52:06,253 --> 00:52:07,211
Brace yourself, Caleb.

1356
00:52:07,428 --> 00:52:08,646
He's our guest.
Maybe let's--

1357
00:52:08,647 --> 00:52:09,691
What's your favorite meal?

1358
00:52:10,823 --> 00:52:11,779
Steak, I guess.

1359
00:52:11,780 --> 00:52:12,825
First car?

1360
00:52:13,042 --> 00:52:13,999
An old Bronco.

1361
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:15,087
Do you have a girlfriend?

1362
00:52:15,088 --> 00:52:16,133
No.

1363
00:52:16,611 --> 00:52:17,569
What's your favorite pie?

1364
00:52:17,830 --> 00:52:18,786
Pecan.

1365
00:52:18,787 --> 00:52:19,874
Perfect.

1366
00:52:19,875 --> 00:52:20,963
Because I made some for later.

1367
00:52:21,312 --> 00:52:22,356
What kind of
books do you read?

1368
00:52:24,445 --> 00:52:25,794
Thanks for helping
me with these.

1369
00:52:26,230 --> 00:52:28,100
I want to start selling
them at the diner.

1370
00:52:28,101 --> 00:52:29,101
BECCA: I'd buy one.

1371
00:52:29,102 --> 00:52:30,147
These are so cute.

1372
00:52:30,495 --> 00:52:32,191
They make great
neighbor gifts, too.

1373
00:52:32,192 --> 00:52:33,237
Can I have one?

1374
00:52:33,846 --> 00:52:34,847
Of course.

1375
00:52:36,457 --> 00:52:37,850
Caleb, do you want
a hot chocolate pop?

1376
00:52:38,198 --> 00:52:39,242
Sounds great.
Thanks.

1377
00:52:39,243 --> 00:52:40,287
Come on over here.

1378
00:52:41,070 --> 00:52:42,811
There you are right there.

1379
00:52:43,334 --> 00:52:44,378
All right.
How does this work?

1380
00:52:44,770 --> 00:52:46,206
You never had a hot
chocolate pot before?

1381
00:52:46,511 --> 00:52:47,554
No.

1382
00:52:47,555 --> 00:52:48,903
Come on.
You'll love it.

1383
00:52:48,904 --> 00:52:49,949
Pick one.

1384
00:52:51,951 --> 00:52:52,907
Like that?

1385
00:52:52,908 --> 00:52:53,953
Yep.

1386
00:52:54,258 --> 00:52:56,129
And then we just add some milk.

1387
00:53:01,308 --> 00:53:02,657
Hey, that's pretty neat.

1388
00:53:03,267 --> 00:53:04,355
It tastes good, too.

1389
00:53:04,746 --> 00:53:06,007
Oh, thank you.

1390
00:53:06,008 --> 00:53:07,009
Mm-hmm.

1391
00:53:10,317 --> 00:53:12,232
[MUSIC PLAYING]

1392
00:53:13,015 --> 00:53:13,973
Oh, wow.

1393
00:53:14,495 --> 00:53:15,495
That's good.

1394
00:53:15,496 --> 00:53:16,541
I know, right?

1395
00:53:17,411 --> 00:53:19,631
Hey, what if you sold
these at the adoption drive?

1396
00:53:19,935 --> 00:53:21,588
What do these have to
do with pet adoptions?

1397
00:53:21,589 --> 00:53:24,287
Oh, it fits more under
Christmas, but I don't know.

1398
00:53:24,288 --> 00:53:26,072
It could be an impulse
buy, something festive.

1399
00:53:26,768 --> 00:53:28,508
I'm just thinking out loud.

1400
00:53:28,509 --> 00:53:29,683
You don't have to do it.

1401
00:53:29,684 --> 00:53:30,729
No, I like that idea.

1402
00:53:30,946 --> 00:53:31,947
Yeah, I'd buy them.

1403
00:53:33,210 --> 00:53:34,776
Can I pay you to make
some for me to sell?

1404
00:53:35,037 --> 00:53:36,038
Yeah, of course.

1405
00:53:38,389 --> 00:53:39,390
Something wrong?

1406
00:53:39,738 --> 00:53:41,695
No, I'm just thinking,

1407
00:53:41,696 --> 00:53:43,001
hot chocolate pops
work for Christmas,

1408
00:53:43,002 --> 00:53:45,570
but you could also sell
collars and leashes.

1409
00:53:45,961 --> 00:53:47,049
Oh, cute.

1410
00:53:47,485 --> 00:53:49,616
Or you could invite
in existing pet owners

1411
00:53:49,617 --> 00:53:52,446
to decorate a collar
for their dog or--

1412
00:53:52,838 --> 00:53:53,839
Decorate a leash.

1413
00:53:54,231 --> 00:53:55,928
Or even photos
with Santa Claus.

1414
00:53:56,233 --> 00:53:57,234
Santa Paws.

1415
00:53:58,060 --> 00:54:01,149
It's starting to sound less
like an adoption drive, though.

1416
00:54:01,150 --> 00:54:02,195
But that's good.

1417
00:54:03,283 --> 00:54:04,936
Instead of just
another adoption drive,

1418
00:54:04,937 --> 00:54:08,462
it could be like, like
a Christmas pet fair.

1419
00:54:08,767 --> 00:54:10,768
So I can tell my
neighbors about it

1420
00:54:10,769 --> 00:54:13,205
without them feeling like
I'm pressuring them to adopt?

1421
00:54:13,206 --> 00:54:14,294
Exactly.

1422
00:54:14,816 --> 00:54:16,600
But just people being there
will help spread the word

1423
00:54:16,601 --> 00:54:17,645
and get people thinking.

1424
00:54:18,820 --> 00:54:20,344
It sounds like we've
got a lot of work to do.

1425
00:54:22,476 --> 00:54:23,998
I need to update
all the flyers

1426
00:54:23,999 --> 00:54:26,088
and tell the reporter that
Ryan arranged what we're doing.

1427
00:54:27,438 --> 00:54:28,787
How did you get
to be so creative?

1428
00:54:29,570 --> 00:54:31,224
I don't think I've ever
been called creative.

1429
00:54:31,616 --> 00:54:32,573
Well, you are.

1430
00:54:32,921 --> 00:54:33,922
Thank you.

1431
00:54:34,401 --> 00:54:37,230
Seriously, you don't know
how huge all of this is.

1432
00:54:37,926 --> 00:54:39,667
A few days ago, the
shelter was broke.

1433
00:54:40,146 --> 00:54:41,842
I was trying to figure out
how to keep it all going

1434
00:54:41,843 --> 00:54:43,845
and not give more than
I could afford myself.

1435
00:54:45,020 --> 00:54:47,848
I didn't know what to do,
especially if I had to turn

1436
00:54:47,849 --> 00:54:48,981
away an animal in need.

1437
00:54:49,373 --> 00:54:50,591
I'm glad it
didn't come to that.

1438
00:54:50,896 --> 00:54:54,552
But then you went above
and beyond, like way beyond.

1439
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:57,641
And for the first
time, I am eager to get

1440
00:54:57,642 --> 00:54:59,296
to work without the
fear that I'll fail.

1441
00:55:00,732 --> 00:55:02,341
Knowing that I can
focus on the animals

1442
00:55:02,342 --> 00:55:04,343
with less pressure about
the money side is--

1443
00:55:04,344 --> 00:55:06,346
[SIGHS] thank you.

1444
00:55:06,694 --> 00:55:08,304
I could tell that you
are worried and sad,

1445
00:55:08,305 --> 00:55:09,393
and I didn't want that.

1446
00:55:09,915 --> 00:55:11,743
And thanks for bringing
me along tonight.

1447
00:55:13,484 --> 00:55:15,442
It's been a while since
I've been around a family.

1448
00:55:17,139 --> 00:55:18,315
They liked meeting you, too.

1449
00:55:19,141 --> 00:55:20,881
I'm sorry for their
non-stop questions.

1450
00:55:20,882 --> 00:55:23,363
[MUSIC PLAYING]

1451
00:55:45,167 --> 00:55:47,168
OK, we are going to
make this the best

1452
00:55:47,169 --> 00:55:48,300
Christmas adoption drive yet.

1453
00:55:48,301 --> 00:55:49,737
- We're holding it here?
- Yes.

1454
00:55:50,172 --> 00:55:51,651
And pray for good
weather, because we're

1455
00:55:51,652 --> 00:55:53,393
going to have to do
crafts and things outside.

1456
00:55:54,176 --> 00:55:55,352
But I think it'll work.

1457
00:55:56,135 --> 00:55:58,964
Now, Heidi is making
the hot chocolate pops.

1458
00:55:59,268 --> 00:56:03,534
I think we put her in charge
of selling that over here.

1459
00:56:04,665 --> 00:56:06,449
And then we'll have
somebody run decorating

1460
00:56:06,450 --> 00:56:07,755
the collars and leashes.

1461
00:56:08,234 --> 00:56:09,235
Do you want me on that?

1462
00:56:10,410 --> 00:56:11,932
I'll get my
family to help out.

1463
00:56:11,933 --> 00:56:14,196
I'd rather the three of us
handle the adoptions, though.

1464
00:56:14,414 --> 00:56:15,588
We can do that.

1465
00:56:15,589 --> 00:56:18,069
However, I do like
the Santa's photo idea,

1466
00:56:18,070 --> 00:56:20,377
especially for people
who just adopted a pet.

1467
00:56:20,768 --> 00:56:23,814
I'm thinking we put up a
backdrop for that about here.

1468
00:56:23,815 --> 00:56:25,555
Sound good?

1469
00:56:25,556 --> 00:56:29,036
Yeah.

1470
00:56:29,037 --> 00:56:30,516
Now, this is a lot to handle.

1471
00:56:30,517 --> 00:56:32,389
On top of everything
we do each day.

1472
00:56:32,824 --> 00:56:34,260
I can focus on
it if you want.

1473
00:56:35,304 --> 00:56:36,393
It's too much, man.

1474
00:56:36,697 --> 00:56:38,177
I think I can
figure most of it out.

1475
00:56:38,482 --> 00:56:40,004
You two were handling
all the normal things

1476
00:56:40,005 --> 00:56:41,005
before I came anyways.

1477
00:56:41,006 --> 00:56:42,094
OK.

1478
00:56:42,311 --> 00:56:44,051
I'll go ahead and
adjust the new flyers,

1479
00:56:44,052 --> 00:56:46,185
but do pass along
anything that's too big.

1480
00:56:46,794 --> 00:56:47,925
All right.

1481
00:56:47,926 --> 00:56:49,406
And is there a volume
discount at all?

1482
00:56:54,062 --> 00:56:55,063
OK.

1483
00:56:56,064 --> 00:56:57,326
And all that's in
stock right now?

1484
00:56:57,892 --> 00:56:58,893
Cool.

1485
00:57:00,939 --> 00:57:01,895
Yeah.

1486
00:57:01,896 --> 00:57:04,203
OK Well, thank you very much.

1487
00:57:05,204 --> 00:57:06,205
Yeah, goodbye.

1488
00:57:06,771 --> 00:57:07,772
Sorry.

1489
00:57:07,989 --> 00:57:08,990
It's fine.

1490
00:57:09,426 --> 00:57:10,514
How you doing there, Rexy?

1491
00:57:10,905 --> 00:57:11,862
Still eating all your kibble?

1492
00:57:11,863 --> 00:57:13,125
Yeah, he's doing all right.

1493
00:57:13,821 --> 00:57:15,910
Hey, what's the story?

1494
00:57:16,563 --> 00:57:18,042
You said every animal has one.

1495
00:57:18,043 --> 00:57:19,087
Yeah.

1496
00:57:20,785 --> 00:57:22,090
He's the one I don't
know much about.

1497
00:57:22,874 --> 00:57:24,614
When I first
brought him here, I

1498
00:57:24,615 --> 00:57:26,485
was expecting someone
might show up to claim him

1499
00:57:26,486 --> 00:57:28,487
because he's so sweet, and
he gets along with other

1500
00:57:28,488 --> 00:57:29,663
dogs well.

1501
00:57:30,664 --> 00:57:32,710
Now I just keep waiting
for someone to adopt him.

1502
00:57:33,798 --> 00:57:34,886
I'm not sure why no one has.

1503
00:57:36,017 --> 00:57:38,193
One day someone will
see him for who he is.

1504
00:57:39,238 --> 00:57:41,066
I wish everyone could
see animals the way you do.

1505
00:57:42,981 --> 00:57:43,982
What if they could?

1506
00:57:45,984 --> 00:57:48,465
I could type up all the animal
stories for the adoption drive.

1507
00:57:48,856 --> 00:57:50,727
And maybe display it
next to their kennels.

1508
00:57:50,728 --> 00:57:51,772
Yeah.

1509
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,034
That way, if I can't
tell them myself,

1510
00:57:54,035 --> 00:57:56,037
they can still learn about
the animal they're looking at.

1511
00:57:56,342 --> 00:57:58,213
Yeah, I like it.

1512
00:57:59,258 --> 00:58:01,521
It's nice
brainstorming with you.

1513
00:58:02,653 --> 00:58:04,698
I just hope it helps enough.

1514
00:58:05,351 --> 00:58:08,180
I want this to go
really well for you.

1515
00:58:08,485 --> 00:58:09,486
Thanks.

1516
00:58:10,835 --> 00:58:11,836
Hey.

1517
00:58:12,793 --> 00:58:16,056
Would you-- would you want
to do something tonight

1518
00:58:16,057 --> 00:58:17,189
after the shelter closes?

1519
00:58:17,929 --> 00:58:20,018
Yeah, I'd like that.

1520
00:58:23,674 --> 00:58:24,675
What's this?

1521
00:58:25,458 --> 00:58:26,807
You like painting
and pottery.

1522
00:58:27,199 --> 00:58:29,114
I thought this
combined both of those.

1523
00:58:29,941 --> 00:58:30,942
Are you serious?

1524
00:58:32,073 --> 00:58:33,770
I know the shelter
is so important to you,

1525
00:58:33,771 --> 00:58:36,729
but I thought you kind
of might need a break

1526
00:58:36,730 --> 00:58:38,123
and want to reminisce.

1527
00:58:38,819 --> 00:58:40,038
This is so great.

1528
00:58:41,213 --> 00:58:43,171
It's been a long time since
I've done anything artistic.

1529
00:58:43,955 --> 00:58:45,783
Well, then, shall
we get started?

1530
00:58:47,524 --> 00:58:49,307
Mm-hmm.
[MUSIC PLAYING]

1531
00:58:49,308 --> 00:58:51,570
If I paint my own
camouflage, will you judge me?

1532
00:58:51,571 --> 00:58:52,571
Not at all.

1533
00:58:52,572 --> 00:58:53,572
[CHUCKLES]

1534
00:58:53,573 --> 00:58:54,618
So, what are you painting?

1535
00:58:54,922 --> 00:58:57,271
I'm thinking a
dog in a Santa hat.

1536
00:58:57,272 --> 00:58:58,665
Napping by a Christmas tree.

1537
00:58:58,926 --> 00:59:00,361
I will save that for canvas.

1538
00:59:00,362 --> 00:59:01,754
[LAUGHTER]

1539
00:59:01,755 --> 00:59:02,886
Well, either way, I think,
you'll put me to shame.

1540
00:59:02,887 --> 00:59:03,887
OK.

1541
00:59:03,888 --> 00:59:05,324
Do not put me on
a pedestal yet.

1542
00:59:05,672 --> 00:59:07,326
Who knows how the
dog will turn out?

1543
00:59:08,414 --> 00:59:11,155
So, if you hadn't gotten
involved with the shelter,

1544
00:59:11,156 --> 00:59:12,331
would you have pursued art?

1545
00:59:13,462 --> 00:59:14,855
Oh, I don't know.

1546
00:59:15,726 --> 00:59:16,901
It's kind of hard
to imagine now.

1547
00:59:17,205 --> 00:59:19,730
But do you regret not
giving art more of a chance?

1548
00:59:20,339 --> 00:59:21,383
I don't think so.

1549
00:59:21,819 --> 00:59:23,690
I like the variety of
things I do at the shelter.

1550
00:59:24,473 --> 00:59:25,736
I'm fine with art
being my hobby.

1551
00:59:26,954 --> 00:59:27,955
What about you?

1552
00:59:28,521 --> 00:59:29,609
If I hadn't joined the army?

1553
00:59:29,957 --> 00:59:31,044
Yeah.

1554
00:59:31,045 --> 00:59:32,568
I don't know if
anything specifically,

1555
00:59:32,569 --> 00:59:35,441
but it's more so a feel
of what I like to do.

1556
00:59:35,789 --> 00:59:36,747
Which is?

1557
00:59:37,182 --> 00:59:38,749
Being useful.

1558
00:59:40,185 --> 00:59:41,707
I don't know.

1559
00:59:41,708 --> 00:59:43,144
I say that, but there's a lot
of ways you can be useful.

1560
00:59:44,232 --> 00:59:45,756
Maybe it's the
variety that helps.

1561
00:59:46,147 --> 00:59:47,321
Did you have
that in the army?

1562
00:59:47,322 --> 00:59:49,846
Yeah.

1563
00:59:49,847 --> 00:59:51,456
A lot more than you think.

1564
00:59:51,457 --> 00:59:53,111
Well, I guess you are trained
for whatever could go wrong.

1565
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,286
To a degree, yes.

1566
00:59:55,287 --> 00:59:57,462
But there's a lot of times that
you just have to improvise,

1567
00:59:57,463 --> 00:59:58,986
you know, find a solution.

1568
00:59:59,900 --> 01:00:01,293
I think I like that, too.

1569
01:00:03,121 --> 01:00:04,208
That's why you're so amazing.

1570
01:00:04,209 --> 01:00:05,209
[LAUGHS]

1571
01:00:05,210 --> 01:00:06,471
What?

1572
01:00:06,472 --> 01:00:08,213
All of your good ideas
and problem solving.

1573
01:00:08,909 --> 01:00:11,172
I'm willing to bet, though,
you've always had that talent.

1574
01:00:11,956 --> 01:00:12,912
Who knows?

1575
01:00:12,913 --> 01:00:14,653
[LAUGHTER]

1576
01:00:14,654 --> 01:00:17,743
Well, I am just lucky that
you stopped by the shelter

1577
01:00:17,744 --> 01:00:19,703
and have put up with
the noise and craziness.

1578
01:00:20,573 --> 01:00:23,620
It's been exactly what
I was missing, seriously.

1579
01:00:24,011 --> 01:00:27,884
And not just the work, it's the
little smiles on all the dog's

1580
01:00:27,885 --> 01:00:31,670
faces like Rex, the fun little
personalities of all the cats,

1581
01:00:31,671 --> 01:00:35,196
and James and especially--

1582
01:00:35,588 --> 01:00:36,589
-- you.

1583
01:00:38,983 --> 01:00:39,984
Is that OK?

1584
01:00:41,768 --> 01:00:42,769
Of course.

1585
01:00:43,988 --> 01:00:44,989
Good.

1586
01:00:48,862 --> 01:00:51,516
There's this focus he
has, like an intensity

1587
01:00:51,517 --> 01:00:53,040
that is so impressive.

1588
01:00:53,780 --> 01:00:56,913
Everything he
does, he does 110%

1589
01:00:56,914 --> 01:00:57,958
That's rare.

1590
01:00:58,393 --> 01:00:59,612
And it's sweet, too.

1591
01:01:00,004 --> 01:01:02,223
It makes me want him to
have some joy from all this.

1592
01:01:02,441 --> 01:01:03,616
What makes you
think he doesn't?

1593
01:01:04,399 --> 01:01:07,925
He seems happy, except
for well, he's alone.

1594
01:01:08,795 --> 01:01:09,970
Alone or lonely?

1595
01:01:10,231 --> 01:01:11,232
Both.

1596
01:01:12,059 --> 01:01:13,712
He's going to be a
lonely Christmas.

1597
01:01:13,713 --> 01:01:15,672
Well, you should invite
him to spend it with us.

1598
01:01:16,020 --> 01:01:16,976
That's what I was thinking.

1599
01:01:16,977 --> 01:01:18,065
But?

1600
01:01:18,457 --> 01:01:21,112
It'd help, but it wouldn't
fix what needs fixing.

1601
01:01:22,504 --> 01:01:24,767
He shared some things with
me the other day, and--

1602
01:01:24,768 --> 01:01:28,118
And you want to make it all
better, just like those dogs

1603
01:01:28,119 --> 01:01:29,163
and cats at the shelter.

1604
01:01:29,468 --> 01:01:31,731
Yeah, but it's
more than that.

1605
01:01:32,123 --> 01:01:35,474
He deserves to be happy, truly
happy with nothing held back.

1606
01:01:36,605 --> 01:01:38,128
But I know he can't get
there without making

1607
01:01:38,129 --> 01:01:39,608
some changes with his family.

1608
01:01:40,087 --> 01:01:42,699
Well, why does it
matter to you so much?

1609
01:01:43,134 --> 01:01:47,181
Because it hurts when I catch
glimpses of him when he's sad.

1610
01:01:47,965 --> 01:01:49,009
And you care for him.

1611
01:01:51,446 --> 01:01:53,535
He'll find his way
one day at a time.

1612
01:01:54,798 --> 01:01:55,842
Not if he does it alone.

1613
01:01:56,582 --> 01:01:58,671
Well, who said that we were
going to leave him alone?

1614
01:01:59,019 --> 01:01:59,976
Nah.

1615
01:01:59,977 --> 01:02:01,718
[LAUGHTER]

1616
01:02:03,676 --> 01:02:04,937
What is in these anyway?

1617
01:02:04,938 --> 01:02:06,504
Nothing.

1618
01:02:06,505 --> 01:02:07,940
They're just a decorate for
the adoption drive tomorrow.

1619
01:02:07,941 --> 01:02:08,986
What?

Thank you.

1628
01:02:50,201 --> 01:02:51,331
Hey, boy.

1629
01:02:51,332 --> 01:02:52,942
You want to come
home with me today?

1630
01:02:52,943 --> 01:02:55,032
I have to admit, I'm pretty
grumpy in the mornings, though.

1631
01:02:59,079 --> 01:03:00,864
That's the nice thing
about them, huh?

1632
01:03:01,473 --> 01:03:02,474
What's that?

1633
01:03:02,779 --> 01:03:05,737
Dogs, they'll
accept you as you are,

1634
01:03:05,738 --> 01:03:07,784
no holding your
flaws against you.

1635
01:03:08,219 --> 01:03:09,220
Yeah.

01:03:09,568 --> 01:03:11,004
Only we could all
be that way, huh?

1637
01:03:11,309 --> 01:03:12,310
Right.

1638
01:03:14,878 --> 01:03:16,270
But what about
that guy over there?

1639
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:18,837
Yeah, so that's actually Rex.

1640
01:03:18,838 --> 01:03:20,579
He has been at the
shelter the longest.

1641
01:03:21,014 --> 01:03:23,407
And we don't have a ton
of information on him,

1642
01:03:23,408 --> 01:03:25,149
but he is the sweetest dog.

1643
01:03:25,497 --> 01:03:26,498
He loves to play fetch.

1644
01:03:26,759 --> 01:03:27,977
He gets along with
other dogs great.

1645
01:03:27,978 --> 01:03:29,543
Yeah.

1646
01:03:29,544 --> 01:03:30,545

really like that for the cats.

No, we've all pitched in.

But Amber, she does so much.

1656

And I just hope we find
homes for a lot of animals.

Yeah.

1658
01:03:54,134 --> 01:03:56,657
[SIGHS] So, what are
you doing for Christmas?

1659
01:03:56,658 --> 01:03:59,573
I'm just keeping it quiet
this year, relaxing on my own.

1660
01:03:59,574 --> 01:04:01,837
Oh, well, we would love
for you to spend it with us.

1661
01:04:01,838 --> 01:04:02,838
Oh, thank you.

1662
01:04:02,839 --> 01:04:03,882
I don't want to intrude.

1663
01:04:03,883 --> 01:04:04,884
It's a day for family.

It's no intrusion at all.

Heidi is joining
us for the day.

01:04:08,148 --> 01:04:09,671
James is coming for
Christmas dinner.

01:04:09,976 --> 01:04:11,760
You could at least join
us for that, couldn't you?

1668
01:04:12,109 --> 01:04:13,023
Maybe.

1669
01:04:15,286 --> 01:04:16,983
Speaking of family,
where is yours?

1670
01:04:17,201 --> 01:04:18,331
Won't they miss you?

1671
01:04:18,332 --> 01:04:19,377
I don't think so.

They're back in Kansas.

1673
01:04:21,770 --> 01:04:24,207
Every parent wants to be
with their child at Christmas,

1674
01:04:24,208 --> 01:04:25,470
no matter how old or young.

1675
01:04:26,297 --> 01:04:27,385
It's not that simple.

Why ever not?

1677
01:04:31,302 --> 01:04:32,303
OK.

We're not that close anymore.

1681

And it's I just don't think
that they want to forgive me.

Caleb, trust me, if
there's anything to forgive,

1683
01:04:47,971 --> 01:04:49,189
they've already done it.

1684
01:04:50,669 --> 01:04:52,975
You know, certainly
Christmas is the perfect time

1685
01:04:52,976 --> 01:04:55,413
for healing and forgiveness.

01:04:56,153 --> 01:04:57,110
That's what it's all about.

Take whatever step you
can, even a small one.

you know, a way to bridge

This is Rex, who
you were asking about.

great with children

Yeah, you just want to head
over to James over there.

start the paperwork.

Of course.

thinking about adopting Rex.

over, I'm sure.

thinking about Ollie.

He's smaller than Rex.

1722

Yeah, I was thinking
the same thing.

1723
01:06:25,851 --> 01:06:29,072
But Rex is so friendly,
and he's been here so long.

1724
01:06:30,943 --> 01:06:31,944
How do we choose?

1725
01:06:33,946 --> 01:06:35,687
Would you want to adopt both?

1726
01:06:36,122 --> 01:06:38,168
They get along with
each and other dogs.

1727
01:06:38,603 --> 01:06:40,518
I don't know.

1728
01:06:41,649 --> 01:06:42,824
This would be our first dog.

1729
01:06:43,695 --> 01:06:45,218
I think we need to
stick with one for now.

1730
01:06:45,436 --> 01:06:46,437
No pressure.

1731
01:06:46,741 --> 01:06:47,742

going over there?

deciding, although--

isn't over yet.

do something you don't want to,

1749

Amber, we all care
about the animals here.

1750
01:07:39,925 --> 01:07:42,405
Caring for their well-being
isn't the same as worrying

1751
01:07:42,406 --> 01:07:43,450
that he's not with you.

1752
01:07:45,322 --> 01:07:46,323
Am I wrong?

01:07:50,153 --> 01:07:51,110
No.

feel if they choose Rex?

Rex for a second?

01:08:11,696 --> 01:08:12,740
Good.

1759
01:08:13,001 --> 01:08:14,002
All right.

1760
01:08:20,183 --> 01:08:21,184
What do you think, Rex?

1761
01:08:22,620 --> 01:08:24,491
I'm afraid I'm not a
perfect fit for you.

It's just me.

down, you know.

you, I'd really miss you.

a shot, you and me?

01:08:47,471 --> 01:08:48,775
Yeah, OK.

he's used to eating,

OK.

not because he wants
to see you suffer,

but because he knows you will
come out stronger and happier,

1908
01:14:09,749 --> 01:14:12,011
if you surrender
any suffering to him

In the first chapter of James,

1913

he taught that we can
see a trial as joy,

1914
01:14:21,848 --> 01:14:24,067
knowing that the
testing of our faith

1915
01:14:24,068 --> 01:14:25,590
produces patience.

1916
01:14:25,591 --> 01:14:30,161
And that, in turn, strengthens
us and perfects us.

wouldn't he come?
