Conrad, I'm disappointed too.

14
00:00:47,297 --> 00:00:49,466
But they're saying the storm
is just going to get worse.

15
00:00:49,466 --> 00:00:52,594
No. It's best if you and
Winnie stay in Seattle.

16
00:00:52,594 --> 00:00:54,846
And come tomorrow,
we'll have Christmas dinner.

17
00:00:56,931 --> 00:00:58,516
Conrad, look, I don't pull

18
00:00:58,516 --> 00:01:01,603
the because I'm your mother
and I say so card very often,

19
00:01:01,603 --> 00:01:02,979
but I'm pulling it now.

20
00:01:02,979 --> 00:01:06,024
I will be fine.
Merry Christmas.

21
00:01:06,357 --> 00:01:08,026
- Hi.
- Oh, hey.

22
00:01:08,026 --> 00:01:10,361
Ivy, Hector come in,
come in.

23
00:01:10,361 --> 00:01:12,739
Wha... What are you guys doing?

24
00:01:12,739 --> 00:01:14,991
Well, well, we're on
the way to the airport.

25
00:01:14,991 --> 00:01:16,242
We almost certainly
find out

26
00:01:16,242 --> 00:01:17,786
that our flight
has been cancelled.

27
00:01:17,786 --> 00:01:19,829
Hector, it hasn't been
canceled yet. Okay?

28
00:01:19,829 --> 00:01:22,123
Anyways, we just figured
that since it was on the way,

29
00:01:22,123 --> 00:01:23,583
we'd drop off
Christmas presents

30
00:01:23,583 --> 00:01:25,585
for you and
Conrad and Winnie and...

31
00:01:25,585 --> 00:01:27,921
And then maybe we could
take the gifts you wanted us

32
00:01:27,921 --> 00:01:29,506
to pick up for Mom and Dad.

33
00:01:29,506 --> 00:01:30,840
That's very sweet.

34
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,802
It's also a little crazy,
considering this storm.

35
00:01:33,802 --> 00:01:36,846
You know, I actually
told Winnie and Conrad

36
00:01:36,846 --> 00:01:39,015
not to risk driving in this.

37
00:01:39,015 --> 00:01:40,141
Where are they?

38
00:01:40,141 --> 00:01:42,519
Well, Winnie had a showcase
in Seattle

39
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:43,812
singing Christmas songs,

40
00:01:43,812 --> 00:01:46,439
and I really wanted
to be there.

41
00:01:46,439 --> 00:01:49,692
But unlike my kids,
I read the forecast,

42
00:01:49,692 --> 00:01:52,111
and I didn't want to get stuck
on Christmas Eve.

43
00:01:52,111 --> 00:01:53,404
Yeah.

44
00:01:53,404 --> 00:01:55,406
Oh my gosh.
I almost forgot.

45
00:01:55,406 --> 00:01:57,659
- Happy birthday.
- Thank you.

46
00:01:57,659 --> 00:01:59,244
Thank you.

47
00:01:59,911 --> 00:02:03,873
Wow. Twenty-five years ago.
Right here in this living room.

48
00:02:03,873 --> 00:02:04,833
Right there.

49
00:02:04,833 --> 00:02:06,000
All because of Uncle Greg?

50
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,126
Yeah.

51
00:02:12,006 --> 00:02:14,217
I forgot about that clock.

52
00:02:14,217 --> 00:02:15,760
I can't believe you
still have that.

53
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,846
And I really can't believe
you put it out in public.

54
00:02:17,846 --> 00:02:19,764
Hey, your parents
gave us that.

55
00:02:19,764 --> 00:02:21,850
And Greg really loved it.

56
00:02:24,561 --> 00:02:26,855
You guys have time for coffee?

57
00:02:26,855 --> 00:02:28,773
Oh. How are your folks?

58
00:02:28,773 --> 00:02:30,358
I haven't talked to them
in a few weeks.

59
00:02:30,358 --> 00:02:31,568
Oh. They're good.

60
00:02:31,568 --> 00:02:33,069
You know, dad's working
too much, as per usual.

61
00:02:33,069 --> 00:02:34,612
And he's tired all the time.

62
00:02:34,612 --> 00:02:37,407
Mom won't stop asking us when
we're giving them grandkids.

63
00:02:37,407 --> 00:02:40,034
It's going to happen.
Be patient.

64
00:02:40,034 --> 00:02:41,786
Remind me to tell
my mother that.

65
00:02:43,163 --> 00:02:45,498
Well, I should put some
of this stuff away.

66
00:02:45,498 --> 00:02:47,542
I'm really glad I didn't
put the turkey in the oven.

67
00:02:47,542 --> 00:02:49,711
You know, I really don't like
that you're going to be here

68
00:02:49,711 --> 00:02:51,337
all by yourself
on Christmas Eve.

69
00:02:51,337 --> 00:02:52,380
No. I'm fine.

70
00:02:52,380 --> 00:02:53,715
I'm gonna snuggle up
on the couch

71
00:02:53,715 --> 00:02:54,883
and watch
a Christmas movie.

72
00:02:54,883 --> 00:02:57,510
It could be nice to do
that with someone else.

73
00:02:57,510 --> 00:03:01,931
I'm perfectly content to watch
Christmas movies by myself.

74
00:03:01,931 --> 00:03:03,016
Regina...

75
00:03:04,350 --> 00:03:05,852
it's been almost 10 years
since Uncle Greg passed.

76
00:03:07,228 --> 00:03:11,065
I found that time doesn't work
the same with things like that.

77
00:03:11,065 --> 00:03:12,150
Right.

78
00:03:12,150 --> 00:03:14,193
Now, who wants a coffee?

79
00:03:14,736 --> 00:03:15,945
Okay.

80
00:03:19,949 --> 00:03:21,242
Oh my gosh.

81
00:03:21,242 --> 00:03:22,160
Whoa!

82
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,578
Oh! Oh my gosh!!

83
00:03:23,578 --> 00:03:24,829
Coming!

84
00:03:24,829 --> 00:03:25,663
Ahhhh!!!!

85
00:03:34,297 --> 00:03:36,966
In all of time since man
first recorded

86
00:03:36,966 --> 00:03:39,719
the history of humankind
using primitive drawings

87
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:41,346
on the walls of caves,

88
00:03:41,346 --> 00:03:44,307
there has never been mentioned
of a man as maddening

89
00:03:44,307 --> 00:03:47,477
as the one sitting
in our living room.

90
00:03:47,477 --> 00:03:49,187
What did he do now?

91
00:03:49,187 --> 00:03:50,730
It's not what he does,
Penny.

92
00:03:50,730 --> 00:03:52,482
It's who he is.

93
00:03:52,482 --> 00:03:54,692
Nothing is ever good enough.

94
00:03:55,276 --> 00:03:57,987
Not this house or my career.

95
00:03:57,987 --> 00:03:59,656
Or the Christmas tree
or the lights.

96
00:03:59,656 --> 00:04:02,200
Or the way I wrapped
the presents.

97
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:03,868
I wrapped the presents.

98
00:04:03,868 --> 00:04:05,536
What difference does it make?

99
00:04:06,329 --> 00:04:07,622
He gets along with me.

100
00:04:07,622 --> 00:04:09,874
This has been the longest month
of my life.

101
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:14,754
Eli, your father does not
like to depend on people.

102
00:04:14,754 --> 00:04:17,340
Breaking his hip and having
to recover here

103
00:04:17,340 --> 00:04:19,717
has been a humbling experience
for him.

104
00:04:19,717 --> 00:04:20,718
Humble?

105
00:04:20,718 --> 00:04:23,429
Penny, words are
my stock in trade.

106
00:04:23,429 --> 00:04:26,307
Of all the ones I would
use to describe my father...

107
00:04:26,891 --> 00:04:29,018
humble is not one of them.

108
00:04:29,018 --> 00:04:31,062
Sweetheart, I love you.

109
00:04:31,688 --> 00:04:33,314
I know this has been hard,

110
00:04:33,314 --> 00:04:35,400
and any other day
I'd let you use

111
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,027
as many colorful words
as you'd like.

112
00:04:38,027 --> 00:04:39,821
But it's Christmas Eve,

113
00:04:39,821 --> 00:04:43,366
and today you're gonna
smile and be merry.

114
00:04:43,366 --> 00:04:45,201
And we are all going
to share

115
00:04:45,201 --> 00:04:47,370
a wonderful holiday
meal as a family.

116
00:04:47,370 --> 00:04:50,498
And the only words
you're allowed to say are:

117
00:04:50,498 --> 00:04:52,667
Fa la la la la. Okay?

118
00:04:53,167 --> 00:04:54,919
- Okay.
- Mm.

119
00:04:55,503 --> 00:04:57,422
Thank you for putting up
with me.

120
00:04:57,422 --> 00:04:58,881
It was in the vows.

121
00:05:02,552 --> 00:05:03,636
Walter?!

122
00:05:04,053 --> 00:05:06,055
Walter, are you all right?

123
00:05:06,055 --> 00:05:07,515
I'm fine.

124
00:05:07,515 --> 00:05:10,393
I just can't navigate around
all this clutter in here.

125
00:05:10,393 --> 00:05:12,145
Dad, it's not clutter.

126
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:14,439
Penny needs all this
to do ladies' hair.

127
00:05:15,064 --> 00:05:16,691
You do need all of it,
don't you?

128
00:05:16,691 --> 00:05:19,485
Yes. Barbara Fleming is
coming over in a little while.

129
00:05:19,485 --> 00:05:20,486
Mmhmm.

130
00:05:20,486 --> 00:05:21,654
It's a lot of stuff
for a hobby.

131
00:05:21,654 --> 00:05:23,573
We wouldn't be able
to afford this house

132
00:05:23,573 --> 00:05:25,158
if it weren't for
Penny's salon.

133
00:05:25,158 --> 00:05:28,119
Saint Barber has been cutting
my hair for the last 40 years,

134
00:05:28,119 --> 00:05:29,287
and all he needs is

135
00:05:29,287 --> 00:05:30,288
a pair of scissors.

136
00:05:30,288 --> 00:05:31,497
We know dad.

137
00:05:31,497 --> 00:05:33,791
Yeah. Shirley only takes
30 seconds to do...

138
00:05:33,791 --> 00:05:36,127
Women's hair takes
a little more work, Walter.

139
00:05:36,127 --> 00:05:37,003
That's all.

140
00:05:38,004 --> 00:05:39,589
Your wife shouldn't
have to work

141
00:05:39,589 --> 00:05:41,674
in order to afford a house.

142
00:05:41,674 --> 00:05:44,469
Dad, I am the author
of a bestselling book.

143
00:05:44,469 --> 00:05:47,221
I think I'm doing just fine,
thank you.

144
00:05:47,221 --> 00:05:48,264
Zane Grey.

145
00:05:48,806 --> 00:05:50,558
He knew how to tell a story.

146
00:05:51,517 --> 00:05:53,978
Maybe you should write
a Western.

147
00:05:53,978 --> 00:05:55,104
Okay.

148
00:06:01,110 --> 00:06:05,031
So, Dad, you excited
for Christmas?

149
00:06:05,573 --> 00:06:07,075
What am I, nine?

150
00:06:07,658 --> 00:06:09,327
No offense, kiddo.

151
00:06:09,786 --> 00:06:11,079
I'm ten.

152
00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:12,246
- Can you believe--
- Dad...

153
00:06:12,246 --> 00:06:13,956
when are we gonna work
on the time capsule?

154
00:06:13,956 --> 00:06:15,333
It has to be done today.

155
00:06:15,333 --> 00:06:16,584
We'll get to it.

156
00:06:16,584 --> 00:06:18,294
Well, I better go see

157
00:06:18,294 --> 00:06:21,756
if we've got enough cookies
and milk for Santa tonight.

158
00:06:21,756 --> 00:06:24,801
I don't know about you,
but I'm gonna be up all night.

159
00:06:24,801 --> 00:06:25,843
Mm.

160
00:06:27,053 --> 00:06:27,929
Mmhmm.

161
00:06:28,763 --> 00:06:29,639
Eli...

162
00:06:30,181 --> 00:06:31,307
Hmm?

163
00:06:31,307 --> 00:06:34,477
♪ Fa, la, la, la, la, la,
la, la, la. ♪

164
00:06:34,477 --> 00:06:35,937
Heavens.

165
00:06:37,021 --> 00:06:38,356
Don't worry, darling,

166
00:06:38,356 --> 00:06:40,274
there's still a good chance
you might not grow up

167
00:06:40,274 --> 00:06:41,943
to be like either of them.

168
00:06:48,991 --> 00:06:51,702
Jessie, it's going
to snow later.

169
00:06:51,702 --> 00:06:52,870
Yeah, so I've heard.

170
00:06:53,788 --> 00:06:54,956
I'm getting married tonight.

171
00:06:54,956 --> 00:06:57,041
I know. I got the invitation.

172
00:06:57,708 --> 00:06:59,794
Jessie. What if--

173
00:06:59,794 --> 00:07:02,255
No, no. Beth, don't
start with the what-ifs.

174
00:07:02,255 --> 00:07:04,715
It'll start with what if they
don't plow the road

175
00:07:04,715 --> 00:07:06,384
and nobody can get
to the wedding?

176
00:07:06,384 --> 00:07:08,010
And before you know it,
it'll be:

177
00:07:08,010 --> 00:07:11,222
What if the Abominable Snowman
abducts the maid of honor?

178
00:07:11,806 --> 00:07:13,516
You're just mad because
I didn't ask you

179
00:07:13,516 --> 00:07:15,059
to be the maid of honor.

180
00:07:15,059 --> 00:07:17,562
Oh, no, no, no, I am perfectly
content being a bridesmaid.

181
00:07:17,562 --> 00:07:20,439
I just get to stand there
for a bit, have some cake,

182
00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:22,692
maybe dance a little
and then come home.

183
00:07:22,692 --> 00:07:24,026
But you're my older sister.

184
00:07:24,026 --> 00:07:26,112
Why do you always have
to throw in the older part?

185
00:07:26,112 --> 00:07:27,447
Because I know you hate it.

186
00:07:28,823 --> 00:07:31,242
Beth, you've been dreaming
of a Christmas Eve wedding

187
00:07:31,242 --> 00:07:32,618
since we were kids.

188
00:07:32,618 --> 00:07:35,288
You used to put a veil
on your stuffed reindeer

189
00:07:35,288 --> 00:07:37,206
and have her marry Frosty
the Snowman.

190
00:07:37,206 --> 00:07:40,418
And somehow, despite
all odds,

191
00:07:40,418 --> 00:07:44,505
you found a guy who loves
the holidays as much as you do.

192
00:07:44,505 --> 00:07:46,757
Now that's what I call
a Christmas miracle.

193
00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:49,010
It was meant to be.

194
00:07:49,010 --> 00:07:51,095
And the wedding
will be amazing.

195
00:07:52,430 --> 00:07:53,723
Thank you.

196
00:07:53,723 --> 00:07:54,640
Of course.

197
00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:57,894
Oh. It's Max.

198
00:07:58,561 --> 00:08:00,021
Hi, honey.
I'm here with Jessie.

199
00:08:00,021 --> 00:08:00,938
Are you at the venue?

200
00:08:00,938 --> 00:08:02,356
Yes, but it's closed.

201
00:08:02,356 --> 00:08:03,608
They said it open at 8:00.

202
00:08:03,608 --> 00:08:06,611
No, Beth closed as
in out of business.

203
00:08:06,611 --> 00:08:08,070
What?

204
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:09,864
Yeah. I went next door to
the little bistro Julian's.

205
00:08:09,864 --> 00:08:12,074
They said the IRS showed up
late last night

206
00:08:12,074 --> 00:08:13,284
and shut them down.

207
00:08:13,284 --> 00:08:15,578
Something about unpaid
taxes or something.

208
00:08:15,578 --> 00:08:17,413
We had everything
delivered yesterday.

209
00:08:17,413 --> 00:08:22,084
The cake, the decorations,
the tuxes, my wedding dress.

210
00:08:22,084 --> 00:08:24,378
I know. I'm sorry, Beth.

211
00:08:25,296 --> 00:08:26,672
I'll see you soon.

212
00:08:37,266 --> 00:08:40,311
Jessie...
What are we going to do?

213
00:08:41,312 --> 00:08:43,147
I... I don't know
what you can do.

214
00:08:43,147 --> 00:08:44,524
Even if you get
all your stuff,

215
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:46,234
you don't have any place
to put it.

216
00:08:47,068 --> 00:08:49,612
It's not like you can get
married in my backyard.

217
00:08:51,155 --> 00:08:52,615
Beth. No.

218
00:08:52,615 --> 00:08:53,824
We only have 30 guests.

219
00:08:53,824 --> 00:08:55,409
We could easily fit
everybody back there.

220
00:08:55,409 --> 00:08:57,036
No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no.

221
00:08:57,036 --> 00:09:00,206
We have no flowers,
no cake, no nothing.

222
00:09:00,206 --> 00:09:04,293
We can't put together an
entire wedding in my backyard

223
00:09:04,293 --> 00:09:06,712
in 12 hours on Christmas Eve.

224
00:09:06,712 --> 00:09:07,964
Jessie, please!

225
00:09:07,964 --> 00:09:09,924
You know how important
this is to me.

226
00:09:09,924 --> 00:09:11,175
To us.

227
00:09:11,175 --> 00:09:13,135
Max and I met on Christmas Eve.

228
00:09:13,135 --> 00:09:15,638
He proposed the following
Christmas Eve.

229
00:09:15,638 --> 00:09:16,806
You said it yourself

230
00:09:16,806 --> 00:09:18,641
meeting Max was a
Christmas miracle.

231
00:09:18,641 --> 00:09:21,310
Well, we could use another
one right about now.

232
00:09:23,980 --> 00:09:26,190
One Christmas miracle
coming up.

233
00:09:29,026 --> 00:09:30,194
Oh.

234
00:09:33,322 --> 00:09:35,491
If you get this message,
please call me back.

235
00:09:35,491 --> 00:09:36,701
Thank you.

236
00:09:38,119 --> 00:09:39,954
What's happening with
all the faucets now? Any luck?

237
00:09:39,954 --> 00:09:41,539
I've called every plumber
in the book

238
00:09:41,539 --> 00:09:42,915
and they are either
too busy

239
00:09:42,915 --> 00:09:44,208
or not working
on Christmas Eve,

240
00:09:44,208 --> 00:09:46,085
or not willing to come out
in the snow,

241
00:09:46,085 --> 00:09:47,920
or they're just not picking up
their phones.

242
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,088
Right.

243
00:09:49,088 --> 00:09:50,423
I finally found the main water
shut off.

244
00:09:50,423 --> 00:09:51,632
Oh.

245
00:09:51,632 --> 00:09:53,467
Yeah. Pipes in the basement.
Totally fine.

246
00:09:53,467 --> 00:09:57,346
It is either something in the
walls or something outside.

247
00:09:57,346 --> 00:09:58,389
Thank you, Hector.

248
00:09:58,389 --> 00:09:59,557
Yeah.

249
00:09:59,557 --> 00:10:00,850
You two should really
go to the airport.

250
00:10:00,850 --> 00:10:01,976
I can handle this on my own.

251
00:10:01,976 --> 00:10:03,602
No. Our flight
is going to get canceled.

252
00:10:03,602 --> 00:10:05,646
It hasn't been canceled yet.
Okay.

253
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,025
What a Christmas, this
is turning out to be. Huh?

254
00:10:10,443 --> 00:10:12,486
Well, we'll deal with this, okay?

255
00:10:12,486 --> 00:10:13,487
- Okay.
- Here you go.

256
00:10:13,487 --> 00:10:14,405
All right.

257
00:10:14,405 --> 00:10:15,406
If you get over there.

258
00:10:16,824 --> 00:10:17,742
Oh.

259
00:10:17,742 --> 00:10:19,660
Oh ho ho ho!
Merry Christmas.

260
00:10:19,660 --> 00:10:21,912
Uh, Santa told me you were
looking for a plumber.

261
00:10:21,912 --> 00:10:24,498
Oh, my gosh.
Come on in, yes.

262
00:10:26,542 --> 00:10:28,836
The reindeer better be wearing
their snowshoes tonight.

263
00:10:29,795 --> 00:10:30,963
Hey, I'm Nelson King.

264
00:10:30,963 --> 00:10:32,131
Regina Johnston.

265
00:10:32,131 --> 00:10:33,299
Nice to meet you.

266
00:10:33,299 --> 00:10:34,967
A plumber buddy of mine
got your message.

267
00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:37,053
And he knew I was on a site
a couple blocks over,

268
00:10:37,053 --> 00:10:39,055
so I figured I'd stop by
and see what I could do.

269
00:10:39,055 --> 00:10:40,639
Oh, wait, you're not
a plumber.

270
00:10:40,639 --> 00:10:43,309
A contractor,
but I know what I'm doing well.

271
00:10:43,309 --> 00:10:45,227
Well, the problem I'm having
is with my plumbing.

272
00:10:45,227 --> 00:10:47,521
So I really feel like
I need a plumber.

273
00:10:47,521 --> 00:10:49,482
Regina-- can I call
you Regina?

274
00:10:49,482 --> 00:10:50,858
Regina, you need a plumber.

275
00:10:50,858 --> 00:10:52,234
But all things considered,

276
00:10:52,234 --> 00:10:54,862
I would say that foggy
Christmas Eve rules apply.

277
00:10:54,862 --> 00:10:56,655
Foggy Christmas Eve rules?

278
00:10:56,655 --> 00:10:58,240
From Rudolph.

279
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,868
The other reindeer wouldn't let
him play their reindeer games

280
00:11:00,868 --> 00:11:02,745
until it got foggy
on Christmas Eve,

281
00:11:02,745 --> 00:11:04,747
and Santa needed him
to guide his sleigh.

282
00:11:05,164 --> 00:11:06,415
In this metaphor,
I'm Rudolph.

283
00:11:06,415 --> 00:11:07,541
Yeah, I got that.

284
00:11:07,541 --> 00:11:08,459
Okay.

285
00:11:09,418 --> 00:11:10,544
And I'm here to
guide your sleigh.

286
00:11:11,003 --> 00:11:12,296
Kitchen's this way.

287
00:11:18,010 --> 00:11:19,512
Tune in tonight

288
00:11:19,512 --> 00:11:21,764
for the Tommy Saunders Variety
Hour Christmas Eve special.

289
00:11:21,764 --> 00:11:24,767
Coming to you live from
a living room near you.

290
00:11:31,941 --> 00:11:33,484
Barbara. Come in.

291
00:11:33,484 --> 00:11:35,319
- Hello.
- Hello.

292
00:11:35,319 --> 00:11:38,280
Oh, it is so lovely
to see you.

293
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,408
Penny, thank you so much
for saving me.

294
00:11:40,408 --> 00:11:42,118
My hair is a mess.

295
00:11:42,118 --> 00:11:44,328
Oh, Barbara, stop.
It is my pleasure.

296
00:11:44,328 --> 00:11:45,746
We won't get you
all fixed up

297
00:11:45,746 --> 00:11:47,248
for your Christmas Eve
party tonight.

298
00:11:47,248 --> 00:11:50,126
Are you sure you can't come?
We have eggnog.

299
00:11:50,126 --> 00:11:52,169
No, it's a family night.

300
00:11:52,169 --> 00:11:54,422
You remember my father in law.

301
00:11:54,422 --> 00:11:57,466
Walter, this is Barbara
from down the block.

302
00:11:57,466 --> 00:12:00,094
Hi, Walter.
It's nice to see you again.

303
00:12:02,638 --> 00:12:04,724
Well, let's get you
all gussied up.

304
00:12:05,391 --> 00:12:06,350
Okay.

305
00:12:07,476 --> 00:12:09,979
How is that handsome
husband of yours?

306
00:12:09,979 --> 00:12:11,814
Busier than ever.

307
00:12:11,814 --> 00:12:14,108
I'm grateful the store
is finally doing well,

308
00:12:14,108 --> 00:12:15,526
but I never see him.

309
00:12:15,526 --> 00:12:18,154
And when he does come home
from work, he's so tired.

310
00:12:18,154 --> 00:12:20,156
He's just ready for sleep
right after dinner.

311
00:12:20,156 --> 00:12:21,657
Sometimes during it.

312
00:12:21,657 --> 00:12:23,033
Oh, dear.

313
00:12:23,033 --> 00:12:24,827
Eli is like that whenever
he's writing a new book,

314
00:12:24,827 --> 00:12:26,745
it's like there's nothing else
in the world.

315
00:12:26,745 --> 00:12:28,539
Well, how do
you get his attention?

316
00:12:30,541 --> 00:12:32,543
I tell him something's on fire.

317
00:12:33,085 --> 00:12:35,045
Falls for it every time.

318
00:12:37,089 --> 00:12:38,549
Maybe it's me.

319
00:12:39,216 --> 00:12:41,969
It's so easy to fall
into a routine.

320
00:12:41,969 --> 00:12:45,806
Roasted chicken every Monday.
Meatloaf on Wednesdays.

321
00:12:45,806 --> 00:12:49,310
We listen to Elvis' Christmas
album every Christmas Eve.

322
00:12:49,310 --> 00:12:52,188
Don't get me wrong,
we have a great life.

323
00:12:52,188 --> 00:12:54,565
But sometimes it feels,

324
00:12:55,733 --> 00:12:58,569
I don't know... boring.

325
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:00,821
Do you ever feel that way?

326
00:13:03,073 --> 00:13:08,287
Well, not at the moment, no,
but I do know what you mean.

327
00:13:08,287 --> 00:13:09,955
There is nothing better

328
00:13:09,955 --> 00:13:12,291
than settling into
a comfortable life.

329
00:13:12,666 --> 00:13:14,543
But when it becomes
a little too settled

330
00:13:14,543 --> 00:13:15,920
or a little too comfortable,

331
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,547
maybe it's time to try
something new.

332
00:13:18,547 --> 00:13:20,799
Well, maybe it couldn't
hurt to mix it up a little.

333
00:13:20,799 --> 00:13:22,343
What are you thinking?

334
00:13:23,928 --> 00:13:27,389
Something stylish
like Jackie Kennedy.

335
00:13:27,389 --> 00:13:30,935
Or maybe something
that makes me feel,

336
00:13:32,269 --> 00:13:33,479
I don't know.

337
00:13:34,396 --> 00:13:35,940
He won't know what hit him.

338
00:13:38,275 --> 00:13:40,236
We had roses
covering the altar.

339
00:13:40,236 --> 00:13:42,905
And then we had white lights,
white tulle, Christmas angels,

340
00:13:42,905 --> 00:13:45,324
Holly, poinsettias,
Christmas trees.

341
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:47,326
Trees? Plural.

342
00:13:48,452 --> 00:13:49,870
What do you think?

343
00:13:49,870 --> 00:13:51,872
Well, I think I've seen
Christmas shows

344
00:13:51,872 --> 00:13:54,792
at Radio City Music Hall
that weren't this extravagant.

345
00:13:54,792 --> 00:13:56,627
We might need to scale
back a little, huh?

346
00:13:56,627 --> 00:13:57,836
Well, if by scaled back,

347
00:13:57,836 --> 00:13:59,421
you mean change everything,
then yeah.

348
00:13:59,421 --> 00:14:01,006
But it's our dream wedding.

349
00:14:01,006 --> 00:14:04,593
No, sweetie, your dream wedding
was seized by federal agents.

350
00:14:05,094 --> 00:14:07,137
We can't do all this
by tonight.

351
00:14:07,137 --> 00:14:08,389
Maybe Jessie's right.

352
00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:09,890
We could do without
some of this.

353
00:14:09,890 --> 00:14:11,600
We don't really need
the angels--

354
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,103
Max! They signify our
eternal love for one another

355
00:14:14,103 --> 00:14:15,354
under the eyes of God.

356
00:14:15,354 --> 00:14:16,272
They're sacred.

357
00:14:16,272 --> 00:14:17,773
They're $10 plastic statues

358
00:14:17,773 --> 00:14:19,942
we got from the Christmas store
at Cherry Lane Mall.

359
00:14:19,942 --> 00:14:21,527
Which is open until 6 p.m...

360
00:14:21,527 --> 00:14:23,779
Beth, why don't we talk
about this when he gets here?

361
00:14:23,779 --> 00:14:25,739
Wait, wait, when who gets here?

362
00:14:25,739 --> 00:14:27,491
We've been doing some
pre-wedding counseling

363
00:14:27,491 --> 00:14:28,701
at the church.

364
00:14:28,701 --> 00:14:30,119
We figured today would be
a stressful day,

365
00:14:30,119 --> 00:14:32,746
so we asked Pastor Tim
to come early, just in case.

366
00:14:32,746 --> 00:14:36,625
Wait, Pastor Tim
as in Tim Whitman?

367
00:14:36,625 --> 00:14:39,962
Yes. Who else did you think
was going to do the ceremony?

368
00:14:39,962 --> 00:14:41,463
I don't know.

369
00:14:41,463 --> 00:14:44,341
You're getting married on
Christmas Eve... Santa Claus?

370
00:14:45,050 --> 00:14:46,677
Well, you would have
known if you'd gone

371
00:14:46,677 --> 00:14:47,720
to the rehearsal dinner.

372
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:48,596
I had to work.

373
00:14:48,596 --> 00:14:50,264
Why are you freaking out?

374
00:14:50,264 --> 00:14:52,308
Because it's Tim Whitman!

375
00:14:53,601 --> 00:14:57,021
The guy who...
who broke my heart.

376
00:14:57,813 --> 00:15:01,358
Jessie, it has been
over 15 years.

377
00:15:01,358 --> 00:15:03,986
Whatever he may have been
like in high school,

378
00:15:03,986 --> 00:15:05,738
he is a total sweetheart now.

379
00:15:05,738 --> 00:15:08,157
I'm sure if you just spent
five minutes with him,

380
00:15:08,157 --> 00:15:09,658
it'll be just like old times.

381
00:15:10,492 --> 00:15:11,785
Oh. Perfect timing.

382
00:15:11,785 --> 00:15:14,371
No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no.

383
00:15:15,372 --> 00:15:16,916
- Hey.
- Hi.

384
00:15:16,916 --> 00:15:17,917
How are you?

385
00:15:17,917 --> 00:15:19,460
Oh. I'm good.

386
00:15:23,505 --> 00:15:25,549
Wow. It's Tim Whitman.

387
00:15:25,549 --> 00:15:27,885
Hi, Jessie.
Merry Christmas.

388
00:15:27,885 --> 00:15:29,261
Merry Christmas.

389
00:15:29,845 --> 00:15:31,013
Hi, Max.

390
00:15:31,013 --> 00:15:32,556
- Good to see you.
- Good to see you, too.

391
00:15:39,271 --> 00:15:40,981
Do you think
it's big enough?

392
00:15:40,981 --> 00:15:43,859
Well, I guess it depends
on what's going inside.

393
00:15:44,818 --> 00:15:46,028
It's supposed to be things

394
00:15:46,028 --> 00:15:47,529
our family loves
most about Christmas.

395
00:15:47,529 --> 00:15:48,864
Mm.

396
00:15:48,864 --> 00:15:50,741
Well, I don't think
it's going to fit a turkey.

397
00:15:50,741 --> 00:15:52,076
Dad?

398
00:15:53,410 --> 00:15:54,495
What's this?

399
00:15:54,495 --> 00:15:56,121
It's for the time capsule.

400
00:15:56,121 --> 00:15:58,499
How long is this supposed
to stay buried?

401
00:15:58,499 --> 00:16:00,167
We dig it up Christmas Eve,

402
00:16:00,167 --> 00:16:02,294
our senior year
so seven years,

403
00:16:02,294 --> 00:16:03,587
Seven years?

404
00:16:04,129 --> 00:16:07,049
That's not going
to last seven years.

405
00:16:07,049 --> 00:16:07,966
It's wood.

406
00:16:07,966 --> 00:16:09,677
It's going to be a pile
of mush.

407
00:16:09,677 --> 00:16:11,178
- Dad, I think it's going to--
- Shh!

408
00:16:12,262 --> 00:16:17,351
Alex, listen to me.
I was an engineer for 42 years.

409
00:16:17,351 --> 00:16:20,312
I worked on trains.
I worked on airplanes.

410
00:16:20,312 --> 00:16:23,816
Now, if you want your time
capsule to still be there

411
00:16:23,816 --> 00:16:27,820
when you dig it up in seven
years, then I'm your man.

412
00:16:27,820 --> 00:16:31,156
Father, are you implying
that you would like to help?

413
00:16:31,156 --> 00:16:33,117
Well, if you're going
to do something,

414
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:35,619
then you take the time
to do it right.

415
00:16:36,787 --> 00:16:38,914
Let's go see what we can
find in the basement.

416
00:16:38,914 --> 00:16:41,000
Neato! Thanks, Grandpa.

417
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:52,803
Well, you might have
a cracked pipe

418
00:16:52,803 --> 00:16:54,722
that's making your water
pressure go crazy,

419
00:16:54,722 --> 00:16:56,932
but the only way to find
out is to dig up your yard.

420
00:16:56,932 --> 00:16:58,767
We can't do that in
the middle of a blizzard.

421
00:16:58,767 --> 00:17:00,060
No, I guess not.

422
00:17:00,060 --> 00:17:02,062
So maybe I'll come back
when the snow stops

423
00:17:02,062 --> 00:17:03,355
and see what I dig up.

424
00:17:04,148 --> 00:17:05,941
See what I did there?

425
00:17:05,941 --> 00:17:07,401
Saw from a mile away.

426
00:17:07,401 --> 00:17:09,486
Now my kids are coming for
Christmas dinner tomorrow.

427
00:17:09,486 --> 00:17:11,071
What am I supposed to do
with no water?

428
00:17:11,071 --> 00:17:14,032
I wish I could help, but maybe
see when the snow stops.

429
00:17:14,616 --> 00:17:17,286
- Um, it's nice to meet you.
- Yeah.

430
00:17:17,286 --> 00:17:18,579
And have a merry Christmas.

431
00:17:18,579 --> 00:17:19,705
Same.

432
00:17:20,706 --> 00:17:22,124
I'm so sorry, Regina.

433
00:17:22,124 --> 00:17:23,834
Do you want
to just use our house?

434
00:17:23,834 --> 00:17:26,295
It's just gonna be sitting
empty while we're in Michigan.

435
00:17:26,295 --> 00:17:27,379
Really? You don't mind?

436
00:17:27,379 --> 00:17:28,338
No, of course not.

437
00:17:28,338 --> 00:17:29,173
Oh.

438
00:17:30,299 --> 00:17:31,925
We are not going to
the airport just yet

439
00:17:31,925 --> 00:17:33,802
because our flight
has been delayed.

440
00:17:33,802 --> 00:17:35,637
But not canceled. Right?

441
00:17:36,346 --> 00:17:38,348
Should we just maybe
go home for now?

442
00:17:38,348 --> 00:17:40,517
You know, my house is a
lot closer to the airport.

443
00:17:40,517 --> 00:17:42,936
You could just keep me company
till you're ready to go.

444
00:17:42,936 --> 00:17:45,272
Unless you need anything
requiring water.

445
00:17:45,272 --> 00:17:47,024
Is there water in eggnog?

446
00:17:47,024 --> 00:17:48,692
No. Okay.

447
00:17:51,570 --> 00:17:54,364
Whew. Boy, it's cold
out there.

448
00:17:54,364 --> 00:17:55,908
I thought you were--

449
00:17:55,908 --> 00:17:58,494
Leaving? Uh, yeah,
my truck won't start.

450
00:17:58,494 --> 00:18:00,788
I may or may not
have remembered

451
00:18:00,788 --> 00:18:02,039
to put in antifreeze.

452
00:18:02,039 --> 00:18:04,416
Uh, isn't that sort of
like your car's plumbing?

453
00:18:04,416 --> 00:18:05,417
Ironic, right?

454
00:18:05,417 --> 00:18:06,794
Mm.

455
00:18:06,794 --> 00:18:08,504
I called Triple-A. They'll
be here in an hour or two.

456
00:18:08,504 --> 00:18:09,671
An hour or two.

457
00:18:09,671 --> 00:18:12,132
Oh. Oh, it's okay.
I can wait in the truck.

458
00:18:12,132 --> 00:18:13,967
I've got my coat and gloves.

459
00:18:13,967 --> 00:18:15,302
And if it gets too chilly,

460
00:18:15,302 --> 00:18:17,346
I can just burn
whatever's in the glove box.

461
00:18:17,346 --> 00:18:20,682
No, look, I may not have
water, but I've got heat, so.

462
00:18:20,682 --> 00:18:23,018
Oh, no, no, no.
I don't I don't want to.

463
00:18:23,602 --> 00:18:24,895
No. Come on in.

464
00:18:35,864 --> 00:18:37,282
What can I do to help?

465
00:18:37,282 --> 00:18:38,700
I'm pretty handy
in the kitchen.

466
00:18:38,700 --> 00:18:40,911
I make a mean instant
mashed potatoes.

467
00:18:40,911 --> 00:18:42,204
Well...

468
00:18:43,205 --> 00:18:45,082
That would require water.

469
00:18:45,082 --> 00:18:45,833
Fair point.

470
00:18:45,833 --> 00:18:47,042
Well, let me do something.

471
00:18:47,042 --> 00:18:48,627
One thing you'll learn
about me, Regina,

472
00:18:48,627 --> 00:18:49,837
is I sing for my supper.

473
00:18:49,837 --> 00:18:52,631
Well, not literally.
I'm a terrible singer.

474
00:18:52,631 --> 00:18:54,216
Unless you're talking
Christmas carols

475
00:18:54,216 --> 00:18:55,551
and I rock "Joy to The World".

476
00:18:55,551 --> 00:18:56,510
Good to know.

477
00:18:57,594 --> 00:18:59,096
So, um, how do you know
Ivy and Hector?

478
00:18:59,096 --> 00:19:00,138
They seem great.

479
00:19:00,138 --> 00:19:02,558
Yeah. Well, Ivy and I
work together.

480
00:19:02,558 --> 00:19:03,684
Yeah. Where?

481
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:05,185
Pinewood High School.
She's a teacher.

482
00:19:05,185 --> 00:19:06,645
And I'm the principal.

483
00:19:06,645 --> 00:19:08,105
- Really?
- Mmhmm.

484
00:19:08,105 --> 00:19:09,606
Wow.

485
00:19:09,606 --> 00:19:11,150
If my principal looked like
you, I wouldn't have minded

486
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:12,860
getting sent there
all the time as a kid.

487
00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:17,239
Well, um... anyway, Ivy
is more than a co-worker.

488
00:19:17,239 --> 00:19:21,326
My husband is her-
was her father's best friend.

489
00:19:21,326 --> 00:19:23,120
He passed away.

490
00:19:23,704 --> 00:19:25,706
I do that all the time too,

491
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,459
refer to my late wife
in the present tense,

492
00:19:31,128 --> 00:19:32,504
as I always will.

493
00:19:34,923 --> 00:19:37,926
Anyway, um, Ivy's family,

494
00:19:37,926 --> 00:19:41,555
you know, she actually was born
in this house on Christmas Eve.

495
00:19:41,555 --> 00:19:42,681
- Oh, really?
- Yeah.

496
00:19:42,681 --> 00:19:44,391
Wait. Today's her birthday?

497
00:19:44,391 --> 00:19:45,434
Yeah.

498
00:19:45,434 --> 00:19:47,227
Well, we have to do something.

499
00:19:48,395 --> 00:19:49,730
Do you have any candles?

500
00:19:51,648 --> 00:19:53,025
I don't know.

501
00:19:53,025 --> 00:19:55,277
- Happy birthday!
- Aww!

502
00:19:55,277 --> 00:19:56,445
Sorry for the donut.

503
00:19:56,445 --> 00:19:58,071
It was the best I could do
on short notice.

504
00:19:58,071 --> 00:19:59,156
It's perfect.
Thank you.

505
00:19:59,531 --> 00:20:00,782
Make a wish.

506
00:20:05,662 --> 00:20:07,789
What's it like having a
birthday on Christmas Eve?

507
00:20:07,789 --> 00:20:09,708
Did you have to fight
Santa Claus for attention?

508
00:20:09,708 --> 00:20:11,251
No, no, no, no.

509
00:20:11,251 --> 00:20:12,878
My parents were pretty good
about keeping things separate.

510
00:20:12,878 --> 00:20:14,338
So daytime was birthday.

511
00:20:14,338 --> 00:20:16,548
And when the sun went down,
it was Christmas Eve.

512
00:20:16,548 --> 00:20:17,883
Do you remember the time,

513
00:20:17,883 --> 00:20:19,718
it was probably a couple
of years

514
00:20:19,718 --> 00:20:21,803
before your mom
and dad moved to Michigan.

515
00:20:21,803 --> 00:20:24,097
So you and Conrad would have
been, like, six years old.

516
00:20:24,097 --> 00:20:27,142
And he came in and he said,
Merry Christmas

517
00:20:27,142 --> 00:20:28,393
before happy birthday.

518
00:20:28,393 --> 00:20:29,603
Do I remember?

519
00:20:29,603 --> 00:20:31,897
That temper tantrum
went down in history?

520
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:33,065
Conrad's your son?

521
00:20:33,065 --> 00:20:34,942
Yeah. They were born
a few months apart.

522
00:20:34,942 --> 00:20:37,402
So they were friends
before they could even walk.

523
00:20:37,402 --> 00:20:38,278
Mmhmm.

524
00:20:38,278 --> 00:20:39,446
Yeah.

525
00:20:40,906 --> 00:20:42,991
This is the first Christmas
Eve I've spent without them.

526
00:20:42,991 --> 00:20:44,368
Well, there's something about

527
00:20:44,368 --> 00:20:46,328
being with your kids at
Christmas that's important.

528
00:20:46,954 --> 00:20:48,163
Do you have kids?

529
00:20:48,163 --> 00:20:50,123
Uh. Just one. Melanie.
She's down in Florida

530
00:20:50,123 --> 00:20:51,667
and she's eight months
pregnant,

531
00:20:51,667 --> 00:20:53,168
so she couldn't make
the trip home.

532
00:20:53,168 --> 00:20:55,337
Oh, congratulations, you're
going to be a grandfather.

533
00:20:55,337 --> 00:20:57,714
Thank you, thank you. I'm
going to spoil that kid rotten.

534
00:20:58,048 --> 00:20:59,633
How about you?
You have any little ones?

535
00:21:00,384 --> 00:21:03,095
Um. Not yet.

536
00:21:03,095 --> 00:21:04,638
Well, I'm telling you,

537
00:21:04,638 --> 00:21:06,515
it's the greatest thing that
ever happened to me in my life.

538
00:21:06,515 --> 00:21:09,393
Uh, Nelson, would you help me
with something in the kitchen?

539
00:21:09,393 --> 00:21:11,144
Uh, sure.

540
00:21:16,149 --> 00:21:17,192
Hey.

541
00:21:18,443 --> 00:21:19,903
Why do I feel like
I'm getting called

542
00:21:19,903 --> 00:21:20,988
to the principal's office?

543
00:21:20,988 --> 00:21:23,115
It's about Ivy and Hector.

544
00:21:23,115 --> 00:21:24,324
Yeah.

545
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,493
It's the whole subject
of children.

546
00:21:26,493 --> 00:21:28,704
It's just kind of a
sore subject for them.

547
00:21:28,704 --> 00:21:30,539
Oh. I'm sorry.

548
00:21:30,539 --> 00:21:34,042
Sometimes my mouth just gets
going faster than my brain.

549
00:21:34,042 --> 00:21:35,794
I feel terrible.
I should go apologize.

550
00:21:35,794 --> 00:21:36,837
No, no, no, no.

551
00:21:36,837 --> 00:21:38,255
Look, while you're here,

552
00:21:38,255 --> 00:21:40,966
let's just agree to keep things
merry and bright, okay?

553
00:21:41,216 --> 00:21:42,676
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

554
00:21:46,263 --> 00:21:47,639
How are we feeling?

555
00:21:47,639 --> 00:21:48,515
- Good.
- Good.

556
00:21:48,515 --> 00:21:50,183
- Yeah.
- I'm excited.

557
00:21:50,183 --> 00:21:51,977
Oh. Do you need any
help with that, Jessie?

558
00:21:51,977 --> 00:21:53,270
No, I've got it.
Thank you.

559
00:21:53,270 --> 00:21:55,105
Well, I was just telling Beth
and Max here

560
00:21:55,105 --> 00:21:56,982
how lucky they are to have
someone like you

561
00:21:56,982 --> 00:21:58,650
willing to come
to their rescue.

562
00:21:59,109 --> 00:22:01,903
I've got the best older
sister in the entire world.

563
00:22:01,903 --> 00:22:03,405
I just came to help them

564
00:22:03,405 --> 00:22:05,157
navigate these
tricky waters today.

565
00:22:05,157 --> 00:22:07,242
There's a lot of emotion
going on today, I'm sure.

566
00:22:07,242 --> 00:22:08,702
You can say that again.

567
00:22:08,702 --> 00:22:10,078
I'm sorry.

568
00:22:10,078 --> 00:22:12,539
Oh, no, no, nothing.
Please go on. Sorry.

569
00:22:12,539 --> 00:22:14,583
Well, I know we have
a ton to do today,

570
00:22:14,583 --> 00:22:16,668
so I figured I'd roll
my sleeves up and help.

571
00:22:16,668 --> 00:22:19,129
Figured I could start
with the painting duties.

572
00:22:19,129 --> 00:22:22,549
Painting? Uh, what
are we painting?

573
00:22:22,549 --> 00:22:25,385
Oh, well, Max
and I were talking

574
00:22:25,385 --> 00:22:27,429
and we thought if we set
up all the Christmas trees

575
00:22:27,429 --> 00:22:28,764
by the house--

576
00:22:28,764 --> 00:22:31,975
Again with the plural trees,
how many are there?

577
00:22:31,975 --> 00:22:33,894
Well, we wanted to have six,
but I don't think

578
00:22:33,894 --> 00:22:35,979
we're gonna be able to fit
more than four back there.

579
00:22:35,979 --> 00:22:38,106
It'll still make a great
backdrop for wedding photos,

580
00:22:38,106 --> 00:22:40,358
but the color of your house
is going to clash

581
00:22:40,358 --> 00:22:41,610
with our palette.

582
00:22:41,610 --> 00:22:43,987
I'm sorry. You... you
want to paint my house?

583
00:22:43,987 --> 00:22:45,030
Not the whole house.

584
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:46,615
We're not painting anything!

585
00:22:46,615 --> 00:22:48,658
Hey, can I-- can I talk
to you for just one second?

586
00:22:49,576 --> 00:22:50,994
Yeah, sure.

587
00:22:52,662 --> 00:22:53,747
Be right back.

588
00:22:58,043 --> 00:22:59,461
No need to thank me.

589
00:22:59,461 --> 00:23:00,545
I wasn't going to.

590
00:23:00,545 --> 00:23:02,089
I brought up painting
the house

591
00:23:02,089 --> 00:23:03,799
because I know they're trying
to slip a few little things

592
00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:05,384
into the plan without
you noticing.

593
00:23:05,384 --> 00:23:06,426
Little things?

594
00:23:06,426 --> 00:23:07,969
They're having
a Christmas wedding.

595
00:23:07,969 --> 00:23:10,472
But the first Christmas, didn't
even have this much stuff.

596
00:23:10,472 --> 00:23:13,683
A few wise men and some myrrh
and a donkey.

597
00:23:14,142 --> 00:23:15,102
There's not going to be

598
00:23:15,102 --> 00:23:16,144
a donkey in my backyard,
is there?

599
00:23:16,144 --> 00:23:17,896
No, no, it's in
the dining room.

600
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,982
Look, they seem
to listen to you.

601
00:23:20,982 --> 00:23:23,276
Can you just talk
them out of this?

602
00:23:24,194 --> 00:23:25,654
It is a little over the top.

603
00:23:25,654 --> 00:23:28,532
You keep using the word
little completely wrong.

604
00:23:28,532 --> 00:23:30,242
This is important
to them, right?

605
00:23:30,242 --> 00:23:31,368
This is their wedding.

606
00:23:31,368 --> 00:23:33,370
We need to get them
to scale it back.

607
00:23:33,870 --> 00:23:34,955
Way back.

608
00:23:36,540 --> 00:23:37,833
Santa's reindeer elf.

609
00:23:37,833 --> 00:23:38,708
Huh?

610
00:23:39,459 --> 00:23:40,377
Oh! Come on.

611
00:23:41,378 --> 00:23:42,379
You remember Santa's
reindeer elf?

612
00:23:42,379 --> 00:23:43,547
When we were kids
we didn't know

613
00:23:43,547 --> 00:23:45,090
what movie we wanted
to watch.

614
00:23:45,090 --> 00:23:47,217
We played Santa's reindeer elf.
It's like rock, paper scissors.

615
00:23:47,217 --> 00:23:48,802
Santa's reindeer elf.

616
00:23:50,262 --> 00:23:52,848
Like Santa's beats the elves
because, well, he's their boss.

617
00:23:52,848 --> 00:23:55,642
And the elves are in charge
of the reindeer, so they win.

618
00:23:55,642 --> 00:23:56,977
And then the reindeer
beat Santa.

619
00:23:56,977 --> 00:23:59,062
Well, you know, he needs
them to pull the sleigh.

620
00:23:59,771 --> 00:24:00,647
I'd forgotten all about that.

621
00:24:00,647 --> 00:24:01,857
Yeah, because I always won.

622
00:24:01,857 --> 00:24:03,024
No. You cheated.

623
00:24:03,024 --> 00:24:04,317
How do you cheat in
Santa reindeer elf?

624
00:24:04,317 --> 00:24:06,736
I don't know, but you did.

625
00:24:06,736 --> 00:24:09,364
Anyway, we're not
kids anymore, okay?

626
00:24:09,364 --> 00:24:12,659
We don't need silly kids
games to make decisions.

627
00:24:12,659 --> 00:24:13,827
Okay?

628
00:24:14,578 --> 00:24:17,289
Okay, let's take it
to a vote.

629
00:24:18,039 --> 00:24:19,541
One, two.

630
00:24:19,541 --> 00:24:21,084
Yeah. Three to one.

631
00:24:21,084 --> 00:24:22,335
Let's plan a wedding,
shall we?

632
00:24:22,335 --> 00:24:23,753
- Wait.
- Come on.

633
00:24:23,753 --> 00:24:27,174
Reindeer Santa's elf,
whatever it was, it was great.

634
00:24:28,091 --> 00:24:31,511
Lovely. All right, let's
get you under the dryer.

635
00:24:32,304 --> 00:24:33,263
Here we are.

636
00:24:34,598 --> 00:24:36,641
Then we will have
the grand unveiling.

637
00:24:36,641 --> 00:24:38,393
I can't wait.

638
00:24:38,393 --> 00:24:40,562
Now I'm going to go
check on those boys.

639
00:24:40,562 --> 00:24:43,940
If you need anything,
you just yell.

640
00:24:45,984 --> 00:24:47,068
Thank you.

641
00:24:47,068 --> 00:24:48,361
You're welcome.

642
00:24:50,822 --> 00:24:53,950
Now, this is galvanized steel.

643
00:24:53,950 --> 00:24:56,828
Always remember, you can't go
wrong with galvanized steel.

644
00:24:56,828 --> 00:24:59,456
Don't we have that crocheted
on a pillow somewhere?

645
00:24:59,456 --> 00:25:02,500
Alex, sweetheart, what are
you going to put in it?

646
00:25:03,126 --> 00:25:04,753
Mm. I don't know.

647
00:25:04,753 --> 00:25:07,589
What's important to our family
for Christmas.

648
00:25:07,589 --> 00:25:08,965
Galvanized steel.

649
00:25:09,466 --> 00:25:11,092
I think the most
important thing

650
00:25:11,092 --> 00:25:13,428
is the time we spend
with each other.

651
00:25:13,428 --> 00:25:15,055
Maybe family photos.

652
00:25:15,055 --> 00:25:17,224
Yeah, that would be neat.

653
00:25:18,558 --> 00:25:21,728
Dad, do you have
a different opinion?

654
00:25:21,728 --> 00:25:23,313
This is a sturdy box here.

655
00:25:23,313 --> 00:25:25,273
You don't want to waste
it on pictures.

656
00:25:25,273 --> 00:25:27,150
That's why you have
photo albums.

657
00:25:30,445 --> 00:25:31,863
Okay, Dad.

658
00:25:31,863 --> 00:25:33,990
Well, what do you suggest
we put in the time capsule?

659
00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:36,576
Money.

660
00:25:37,285 --> 00:25:38,161
Money?

661
00:25:38,662 --> 00:25:39,829
Yeah, money.

662
00:25:39,829 --> 00:25:42,123
Good old-fashioned
American currency.

663
00:25:42,123 --> 00:25:45,210
That way, when you dig it
up, it'll be worth something.

664
00:25:46,670 --> 00:25:49,965
It's supposed to be about
the spirit of Christmas.

665
00:25:49,965 --> 00:25:53,134
Warmth and happiness and
family and good tidings

666
00:25:53,134 --> 00:25:54,844
towards your fellow man.

667
00:25:55,845 --> 00:25:58,431
You know what my
fellow man really wants?

668
00:25:59,307 --> 00:26:00,392
Money.

669
00:26:02,936 --> 00:26:05,897
Sweetheart, I just
wanted to talk to you

670
00:26:05,897 --> 00:26:07,399
about my yam casserole.

671
00:26:07,399 --> 00:26:10,485
Do you think that I need
to add-- what are you doing?

672
00:26:13,071 --> 00:26:13,989
Oh.

673
00:26:14,364 --> 00:26:15,949
- Oh!
- Those are for later.

674
00:26:15,949 --> 00:26:17,325
This is an emergency.

675
00:26:17,325 --> 00:26:18,368
You'll survive.

676
00:26:18,368 --> 00:26:20,704
He is impossible, Penny!

677
00:26:20,704 --> 00:26:23,707
He is who he is
and you are who you are.

678
00:26:23,707 --> 00:26:25,959
You need to find a way that
you can both be who you are

679
00:26:25,959 --> 00:26:27,961
in the same room
without killing each other.

680
00:26:27,961 --> 00:26:30,046
And if you can't, at least
do it in the backyard.

681
00:26:30,046 --> 00:26:32,048
Because I have to serve
Christmas Eve dinner

682
00:26:32,048 --> 00:26:33,174
in that room.

683
00:26:34,884 --> 00:26:38,930
The problem is that we
are just so different.

684
00:26:38,930 --> 00:26:43,351
No, the problem is
you are so much alike.

685
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:46,938
Get back in there!

686
00:26:58,533 --> 00:27:00,702
Yes. Okay.
Thank you so much.

687
00:27:00,702 --> 00:27:02,287
All right, bye.

688
00:27:02,287 --> 00:27:04,039
Okay, so one of our
choir members said

689
00:27:04,039 --> 00:27:05,707
we can use the heat lamps
from his backyard.

690
00:27:05,707 --> 00:27:06,541
That's great.

691
00:27:06,541 --> 00:27:08,877
Okay. Good news,
bad news.

692
00:27:08,877 --> 00:27:11,838
Our customer found tuxes
for Max and his best man.

693
00:27:11,838 --> 00:27:13,715
I run a theater
company downtown.

694
00:27:13,715 --> 00:27:15,050
I've seen your shows.

695
00:27:15,050 --> 00:27:16,176
You have?

696
00:27:18,928 --> 00:27:22,140
Anyway, but no luck
on the dress.

697
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:24,434
At least not one that's
appropriate for a wedding.

698
00:27:24,976 --> 00:27:26,227
I had the most perfect dress,

699
00:27:26,227 --> 00:27:28,772
but it's in the venue
and we can't get to it.

700
00:27:28,772 --> 00:27:30,857
Why did you have everything
deliver yesterday?

701
00:27:30,857 --> 00:27:33,193
I mean, that's not how
weddings usually work.

702
00:27:33,193 --> 00:27:35,653
We didn't want to have to worry
about doing stuff last minute.

703
00:27:35,653 --> 00:27:37,781
No, that would be terrible.

704
00:27:37,781 --> 00:27:39,741
Okay, so why are there
Christmas trees

705
00:27:39,741 --> 00:27:40,867
in my living room?

706
00:27:40,867 --> 00:27:41,993
Because it's cold outside

707
00:27:41,993 --> 00:27:43,995
and we didn't want them
to freeze.

708
00:27:43,995 --> 00:27:46,247
They're trees, they're
supposed to be outside.

709
00:27:46,247 --> 00:27:48,625
And why are there four?
I thought we agreed on two.

710
00:27:48,625 --> 00:27:51,753
Right. Two on each side
of the altar.

711
00:27:51,753 --> 00:27:53,213
There's a bakery by the mall

712
00:27:53,213 --> 00:27:54,506
that has a
Christmas-themed cake.

713
00:27:54,506 --> 00:27:56,174
It's like a little
snow-covered village,

714
00:27:56,174 --> 00:27:58,426
complete with a Christmas
tree in the town square.

715
00:27:58,426 --> 00:27:59,719
So five trees.

716
00:27:59,719 --> 00:28:01,429
Somebody was supposed
to pick it up today,

717
00:28:01,429 --> 00:28:02,889
but they cancelled.
We can have it.

718
00:28:02,889 --> 00:28:04,057
but we gotta go right now.

719
00:28:04,057 --> 00:28:05,225
Perfect. We'll get
the Christmas Angels

720
00:28:05,225 --> 00:28:06,768
and all the other decorations
at the mall

721
00:28:06,768 --> 00:28:08,061
and then swing by the theater.

722
00:28:08,061 --> 00:28:09,479
Great. Pastor Tim, Jessie,

723
00:28:09,479 --> 00:28:12,273
why don't you get started
on decorating the trees?

724
00:28:12,273 --> 00:28:13,817
Beth, let's go.

725
00:28:18,363 --> 00:28:19,614
Oh.

726
00:28:22,659 --> 00:28:24,327
Looks like it's just
the two of us.

727
00:28:27,664 --> 00:28:29,958
Almost finished here,
Barbara.

728
00:28:29,958 --> 00:28:32,585
Thank you for fitting me in
on Christmas Eve.

729
00:28:32,585 --> 00:28:35,171
I'm sure you'd prefer to be
with your family this morning.

730
00:28:35,171 --> 00:28:38,758
It's much more festive in here,
believe me.

731
00:28:38,758 --> 00:28:41,511
What is the story between
Eli and his father?

732
00:28:41,511 --> 00:28:43,138
Did they ever get along?

733
00:28:43,138 --> 00:28:45,140
Like oil and water those two.

734
00:28:45,140 --> 00:28:47,475
Except they are both
very stubborn.

735
00:28:47,475 --> 00:28:48,727
Walter is an engineer,

736
00:28:48,727 --> 00:28:50,937
and he understands things
that he can build,

737
00:28:50,937 --> 00:28:53,982
and Eli has always
been very creative.

738
00:28:53,982 --> 00:28:57,360
Sensitive like
his mother, Judy.

739
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,488
Now those two, oh,
they were thick as thieves,

740
00:29:00,488 --> 00:29:03,158
especially at the holidays.

741
00:29:03,158 --> 00:29:05,785
She would start singing carols
around Thanksgiving,

742
00:29:05,785 --> 00:29:09,414
and she wouldn't stop
until after New Year.

743
00:29:11,541 --> 00:29:15,044
She even had a clock that
played Christmas songs

744
00:29:15,044 --> 00:29:19,340
every hour on the hour,
24 hours a day.

745
00:29:19,340 --> 00:29:21,009
That's very merry.

746
00:29:21,009 --> 00:29:24,053
Eli's mother was the glue
that held that family together.

747
00:29:24,053 --> 00:29:26,598
And when she passed
a few years ago,

748
00:29:26,598 --> 00:29:28,516
Walter and Eli
just drifted further apart.

749
00:29:29,184 --> 00:29:31,436
It sounds like they need
someone new to be the glue.

750
00:29:31,978 --> 00:29:33,062
Yes.

751
00:29:34,272 --> 00:29:35,857
I think they do.

752
00:29:37,567 --> 00:29:42,071
Well, I am done.

753
00:29:43,948 --> 00:29:47,535
It looks so... different.

754
00:29:51,498 --> 00:29:52,874
Is that a good thing?

755
00:29:53,666 --> 00:29:55,376
It's a wonderful thing.

756
00:29:56,044 --> 00:29:58,421
So much for meatloaf
Wednesdays.

757
00:29:58,421 --> 00:30:01,591
Something other than Elvis'
Christmas album tonight.

758
00:30:01,591 --> 00:30:04,344
No way.
We're still listening to that.

759
00:30:04,344 --> 00:30:06,429
But this time
we'll dance together.

760
00:30:06,429 --> 00:30:09,349
And then we'll talk,
really talk.

761
00:30:09,349 --> 00:30:12,060
That's what every great
relationship needs.

762
00:30:12,060 --> 00:30:14,229
Communication, no matter what.

763
00:30:15,563 --> 00:30:16,731
Oh, Penny...

764
00:30:18,149 --> 00:30:22,403
you always make me look great
and feel even better.

765
00:30:22,403 --> 00:30:24,948
That's the best part
of my job.

766
00:30:24,948 --> 00:30:27,450
Now let's get you
to your party.

767
00:30:28,409 --> 00:30:30,078
There must be something
I can whip up

768
00:30:30,078 --> 00:30:31,329
that doesn't involve water.

769
00:30:31,329 --> 00:30:32,956
Regina, you really, really don't
need to feed us.

770
00:30:32,956 --> 00:30:34,582
We're just gonna
go to the airport.

771
00:30:34,582 --> 00:30:37,585
You know, the storm
seems to be... slowing down.

772
00:30:37,585 --> 00:30:40,088
Your optimism is the thing
I love most about you.

773
00:30:40,088 --> 00:30:42,048
Reminds me of your Uncle Greg.

774
00:30:43,633 --> 00:30:45,260
♪ Joy to the world. ♪

775
00:30:45,260 --> 00:30:47,220
♪ The Lord is come. ♪

776
00:30:47,220 --> 00:30:50,223
♪ Let earth receive
her King. ♪

777
00:30:50,223 --> 00:30:51,307
Yeah.

778
00:30:51,307 --> 00:30:52,767
Nelson, he's a character,
isn't he?

779
00:30:52,767 --> 00:30:54,060
That's one way of putting it.

780
00:30:55,103 --> 00:30:56,688
Well, I think he's charming.

781
00:30:56,688 --> 00:30:58,439
- ♪ And heaven and nature. ♪

782
00:30:58,439 --> 00:30:59,607

783
00:30:59,607 --> 00:31:01,943
I guess maybe a little.

784

- ♪ and nature sing ♪

785
00:31:06,406 --> 00:31:09,659
Hello. Yes, this is
Principal Johnston.

786
00:31:10,743 --> 00:31:11,911
Who?

787
00:31:13,371 --> 00:31:14,747
How did that happen?

788
00:31:15,665 --> 00:31:17,333
Uh, no. I think
the custodian's

789
00:31:17,333 --> 00:31:19,335
the only other one
that has the key.

790
00:31:19,335 --> 00:31:21,379
Okay. Yeah.
Keep me posted.

791
00:31:22,672 --> 00:31:25,091
Uh, that was the coach.

792
00:31:25,091 --> 00:31:27,093
He said that some of the
students broke into the school

793
00:31:27,093 --> 00:31:28,177
and got stuck in the gym.

794
00:31:28,177 --> 00:31:29,345
How?

795
00:31:29,345 --> 00:31:30,638
I don't know, but if
this snow keeps up,

796
00:31:30,638 --> 00:31:32,307
they might be stuck there
for a while.

797
00:31:32,307 --> 00:31:33,099
Mm.

798
00:31:34,100 --> 00:31:35,351
I have a Christmas
Eve brainstorm.

799
00:31:35,351 --> 00:31:36,561
- Come with me.
- What?

800
00:31:37,937 --> 00:31:38,855
Okay.

801
00:31:41,065 --> 00:31:43,526
So, do you know
what you're doing?

802
00:31:43,526 --> 00:31:45,528
I'll figure it out.
You know me.

803
00:31:45,528 --> 00:31:46,946
No, I don't.

804
00:31:48,406 --> 00:31:51,743
All right. Now might be a good
time for a Christmas wish.

805
00:31:51,743 --> 00:31:52,952
Hand me the--

806
00:31:53,620 --> 00:31:54,996
You may not know
what you're doing,

807
00:31:54,996 --> 00:31:57,332
but either way, you're
gonna need a wrench to do it.

808
00:31:58,750 --> 00:32:00,293
You surprise me, Regina.

809
00:32:00,293 --> 00:32:01,920
Because I know what
a wrench is.

810
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,796
No, because you're not afraid
to tell a plumber to use one.

811
00:32:03,796 --> 00:32:05,173
Well, you're not a plumber.

812
00:32:05,173 --> 00:32:06,382
Ah. Well, you strike me

813
00:32:06,382 --> 00:32:08,384
as somebody who can
take care of themselves.

814
00:32:08,384 --> 00:32:10,803
Somebody I wouldn't want
to mess with.

815
00:32:10,803 --> 00:32:12,388
I'm a high school principal.

816
00:32:12,388 --> 00:32:14,474
You can't show weakness or you
know they will eat you alive.

817
00:32:14,474 --> 00:32:16,601
That's true, but there's
more to it than that.

818
00:32:18,227 --> 00:32:20,188
I guess I got used
to taking care of myself.

819
00:32:20,772 --> 00:32:21,731
Mm.

820
00:32:21,731 --> 00:32:23,942
May I ask about your husband?

821
00:32:25,026 --> 00:32:26,235
Greg.

822
00:32:27,487 --> 00:32:29,989
He passed away 10 years ago.
Yeah.

823
00:32:29,989 --> 00:32:32,367
Conrad and Winnie
were still kids.

824
00:32:32,367 --> 00:32:35,161
So as hard as it was, I had
to take care of everybody.

825
00:32:35,912 --> 00:32:37,455
Who takes care of you?

826
00:32:38,373 --> 00:32:41,042
Um. I don't need anyone
to take care of me.

827
00:32:41,042 --> 00:32:43,586
Everybody needs
somebody sometimes.

828
00:32:44,253 --> 00:32:47,048
Oh, and, hey, I am sorry
for overstepping earlier.

829
00:32:47,048 --> 00:32:48,591
Hector gave me some context,

830
00:32:48,591 --> 00:32:50,593
and I realized why I should
have kept my big mouth shut.

831
00:32:50,593 --> 00:32:52,220
It's just not my strong suit.

832
00:32:52,220 --> 00:32:53,221
I got that.

833
00:32:53,763 --> 00:32:55,056
But I've been there,
you know,

834
00:32:55,056 --> 00:32:56,307
when my wife
and I found out

835
00:32:56,307 --> 00:32:57,934
that we couldn't have kids
of our own,

836
00:32:57,934 --> 00:33:00,061
you know, it took
a while to adjust.

837
00:33:00,061 --> 00:33:01,187
And then we were
at a party.

838
00:33:01,187 --> 00:33:02,355
And this loudmouth goes on

839
00:33:02,355 --> 00:33:03,940
about how we should
consider adopting.

840
00:33:03,940 --> 00:33:05,316
And that's how we ended up
with Melanie.

841
00:33:05,316 --> 00:33:06,401
That's wonderful.

842
00:33:06,401 --> 00:33:07,735
I just wish we'd gotten
there sooner.

843
00:33:07,735 --> 00:33:09,320
You know, had more kids

844
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,239
and more Christmas mornings
with them.

845
00:33:11,239 --> 00:33:13,282
or with my wife
before she--

846
00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:20,039
We always want more time,
don't we?

847
00:33:20,915 --> 00:33:21,958
Yeah.

848
00:33:21,958 --> 00:33:24,127
Anyway, when kids
come up now.

849
00:33:24,127 --> 00:33:26,003
I become the loudmouth
at the party.

850
00:33:26,003 --> 00:33:28,715
Oh, something tells me
that's not a rare occurrence.

851
00:33:28,715 --> 00:33:30,633
See you do know me.

852
00:33:34,429 --> 00:33:36,305
- Hey!
- Nice job, Nelson.

853
00:33:36,305 --> 00:33:37,598
Hey.

854
00:33:37,598 --> 00:33:38,474
Full disclosure, it's only
here in the kitchen,

855
00:33:38,474 --> 00:33:39,809
and I don't know for how long.

856
00:33:39,809 --> 00:33:41,936
Well, let's go get some pitchers
to fill up, then.

857
00:33:43,980 --> 00:33:45,314
I told you I knew
what I was doing.

858
00:33:45,314 --> 00:33:46,733
Still not a plumber.

859
00:33:59,162 --> 00:34:02,248
Dad, what are you doing?
Careful on those stairs.

860
00:34:02,248 --> 00:34:04,876
I'm fine.
I'm not made of glass.

861
00:34:04,876 --> 00:34:06,586
Says the man
with the broken hip.

862
00:34:07,170 --> 00:34:08,463
It didn't happen on the stairs.

863
00:34:08,463 --> 00:34:10,631
It happened on that icy
front porch of yours,

864
00:34:10,631 --> 00:34:13,301
and you really need to do
something about it.

865
00:34:13,301 --> 00:34:16,054
I will be sure to give it
a stern talking to.

866
00:34:16,054 --> 00:34:16,846
Huh.

867
00:34:17,722 --> 00:34:19,056
What are you doing down here?

868
00:34:19,056 --> 00:34:21,267
We're sitting up there
with an empty box.

869
00:34:21,267 --> 00:34:22,560
What's it made of again?

870
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,270
Oh. It's galvanized--

871
00:34:27,148 --> 00:34:29,859
You and your jokes
and your words and your--

872
00:34:29,859 --> 00:34:32,111
I'll never understand you.

873
00:34:32,111 --> 00:34:33,780
What's all this stuff?

874
00:34:33,780 --> 00:34:36,115
Ornaments and keepsakes.

875
00:34:36,699 --> 00:34:38,284
Thought I'd find
something interesting

876
00:34:38,284 --> 00:34:39,952
to put into Alex's
time capsule.

877
00:34:42,288 --> 00:34:44,290
A lot of this was
your mother's.

878
00:34:46,083 --> 00:34:48,044
She loved Christmas.

879
00:34:51,672 --> 00:34:53,257
Dad, do you remember this?

880
00:34:54,842 --> 00:34:56,969
Oh, I have nightmares
about that.

881
00:34:56,969 --> 00:34:58,846
Your mother knew
how much I hated it.

882
00:34:58,846 --> 00:35:00,723
So she would only
put it up

883
00:35:00,723 --> 00:35:02,683
when she was mad at me
about something.

884
00:35:03,559 --> 00:35:05,561
Well, it was up a lot.

885
00:35:08,231 --> 00:35:09,816
Oh, Dad.
Wow, look at this.

886
00:35:11,609 --> 00:35:13,903
Mom's singing Christmas clock.

887
00:35:16,864 --> 00:35:18,574
What are you doing with this?

888
00:35:20,117 --> 00:35:22,245
I've been looking
for this for years.

889
00:35:23,454 --> 00:35:25,123
I didn't even know it was here.

890
00:35:25,790 --> 00:35:27,166
You have no business

891
00:35:27,166 --> 00:35:29,919
taking things that don't
belong to you.

892
00:35:33,881 --> 00:35:34,966
Dad...

893
00:35:39,428 --> 00:35:41,597
Okay. And you're sure you don't
need to stay at our house?

894
00:35:41,597 --> 00:35:43,724
Yeah. The water's back on.
I'll be fine.

895
00:35:43,724 --> 00:35:45,977
Okay. And what about, um...

896
00:35:45,977 --> 00:35:47,436
Triple A's on the way?

897
00:35:47,436 --> 00:35:49,230
You two need to get going.
You're gonna miss your flight.

898
00:35:49,230 --> 00:35:50,439
If it doesn't get cancelled.

899
00:35:50,439 --> 00:35:51,566
It's not gonna get cancelled.

900
00:35:51,566 --> 00:35:52,733
All right, well, if
it gets cancelled,

901
00:35:52,733 --> 00:35:54,485
you've got the key
so come in anytime.

902
00:35:54,485 --> 00:35:55,653
- Okay.
- Okay.

903
00:35:55,653 --> 00:35:57,446
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas, honey.

904
00:35:58,823 --> 00:35:59,824
Bye.

905
00:36:00,283 --> 00:36:02,493
Um. Bye, Nelson.
Merry Christmas

906
00:36:02,493 --> 00:36:04,078
Yeah, you too.
Nice meeting you.

907
00:36:04,078 --> 00:36:05,454
Okay, here we go.

908
00:36:05,454 --> 00:36:06,581
Bye guys.

909
00:36:10,334 --> 00:36:13,254
You know, I'm sure the tow
truck will be here any minute.

910
00:36:13,254 --> 00:36:14,589
Why don't I just wait
on the truck?

911
00:36:14,589 --> 00:36:15,590
Oh, don't be silly.

912
00:36:15,590 --> 00:36:16,966
You've got the water
working again.

913
00:36:16,966 --> 00:36:18,050
I owe you.

914
00:36:18,050 --> 00:36:19,552
I'm still going to send
you a bill.

915
00:36:20,720 --> 00:36:21,637
Are you sure?

916
00:36:22,221 --> 00:36:23,347
Yeah.

917
00:36:24,432 --> 00:36:25,516
I'll make us some coffee.

918
00:36:25,516 --> 00:36:26,809
Okay.

919
00:36:29,270 --> 00:36:30,855
You know,
I just realized something.

920
00:36:30,855 --> 00:36:32,023
Hm.

921
00:36:32,023 --> 00:36:34,650
Today is the anniversary
of our first date.

922
00:36:35,651 --> 00:36:37,862
That was not a date.

923
00:36:37,862 --> 00:36:41,490
Christmas Eve,
17... 17 years ago.

924
00:36:41,490 --> 00:36:43,242
That was absolutely not a date.

925
00:36:43,242 --> 00:36:44,535
There was candlelight.
There was food.

926
00:36:44,535 --> 00:36:45,953
I call it a date.

927
00:36:46,871 --> 00:36:49,790
Okay. Can we just concentrate
on what we're doing?

928
00:36:50,625 --> 00:36:51,667
Yeah.

929
00:36:55,213 --> 00:36:57,006
Look, I was sorry
to hear about your divorce.

930
00:36:57,882 --> 00:36:59,175
How did you--

931
00:36:59,175 --> 00:37:01,093
Oh. Beth.

932
00:37:01,677 --> 00:37:03,221
No, no, she
didn't say anything.

933
00:37:03,221 --> 00:37:05,014
It's just, uh...

934
00:37:05,014 --> 00:37:08,142
it's not a big city and with,
you know, social media.

935
00:37:08,142 --> 00:37:10,102
It's hard to not
keep up with someone.

936
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:12,939
You kept up with me?

937
00:37:12,939 --> 00:37:14,482
Sure.

938
00:37:14,482 --> 00:37:15,983
Didn't you keep up with me?

939
00:37:15,983 --> 00:37:17,276
No.

940
00:37:17,276 --> 00:37:18,527
What I...

941
00:37:19,487 --> 00:37:20,529
No comment.

942
00:37:24,408 --> 00:37:25,743
How are you, though?

943
00:37:26,661 --> 00:37:29,121
You know, the end of a marriage
is never easy.

944
00:37:29,121 --> 00:37:33,167
No, it wasn't at first,
but, you know, we, uh.

945
00:37:33,709 --> 00:37:36,796
we figured it out,
and now we're just...

946
00:37:36,796 --> 00:37:38,297
Friends?

947
00:37:38,297 --> 00:37:42,843
Well, I don't invite him
over for coffee and pinnacle,

948
00:37:42,843 --> 00:37:45,179
but something like that.

949
00:37:45,179 --> 00:37:46,555
That's good.

950
00:37:47,390 --> 00:37:50,142
Yeah. I, uh, never got married.

951
00:37:50,142 --> 00:37:51,560
I know.

952
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:55,815
I mean, I... I don't know

953
00:37:55,815 --> 00:37:58,234
because I didn't keep up
with you.

954
00:38:00,736 --> 00:38:03,406
Yeah, I think we're
going to need more ornaments.

955
00:38:03,406 --> 00:38:04,865
There's some in the basement.

956
00:38:04,865 --> 00:38:06,659
- Okay, I'll give you a hand.
- Okay.

957
00:38:08,995 --> 00:38:10,746
Oh! Found some.

958
00:38:12,331 --> 00:38:13,457
These are nice.

959
00:38:13,457 --> 00:38:15,418
Why don't you have these
on your own tree?

960
00:38:16,002 --> 00:38:18,587
Those ornaments I got
when I was married.

961
00:38:19,171 --> 00:38:19,922
Oh.

962
00:38:19,922 --> 00:38:21,632
I just... I wanted my own.

963
00:38:22,717 --> 00:38:24,135
So for everything
there's a season.

964
00:38:24,135 --> 00:38:25,886
Time to seek,
time to lose.

965
00:38:25,886 --> 00:38:27,888
A time to keep and a time
to throw away.

966
00:38:27,888 --> 00:38:30,099
Did you just quote Footloose?

967
00:38:30,725 --> 00:38:33,644
Ecclesiastes. Same
chapter, different verse.

968
00:38:33,644 --> 00:38:34,478
Ah.

969
00:38:34,478 --> 00:38:35,313
Mm.

970
00:38:36,647 --> 00:38:39,025
Okay. I have to ask,

971
00:38:40,109 --> 00:38:42,361
what made you become a pastor?

972
00:38:42,361 --> 00:38:43,571
Hey, when we were kids,
you got--

973
00:38:43,571 --> 00:38:44,697
into a lot of trouble.

974
00:38:44,697 --> 00:38:46,073
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

975
00:38:46,073 --> 00:38:48,159
Are you trying to make
up for past transgressions?

976
00:38:48,159 --> 00:38:50,036
No.
No, it's nothing like that.

977
00:38:50,036 --> 00:38:52,329
And it wasn't some
higher calling.

978
00:38:52,329 --> 00:38:53,789
It was, uh...

979
00:38:55,249 --> 00:38:57,209
It was actually Christmas.

980
00:38:57,209 --> 00:38:59,253
Santa Claus told you to.

981
00:38:59,253 --> 00:39:00,880
You know, you're still funny.

982
00:39:01,756 --> 00:39:03,090
That was my freshman year.

983
00:39:03,090 --> 00:39:06,635
My roommate took me to
Christmas Eve service and--

984
00:39:09,263 --> 00:39:10,514
It moved me.

985
00:39:11,140 --> 00:39:12,224
You know, I felt something.

986
00:39:12,224 --> 00:39:13,768
And the more I thought
about it,

987
00:39:13,768 --> 00:39:15,269
the more I thought that
I wanted to help people

988
00:39:15,269 --> 00:39:16,187
feel that way.

989
00:39:16,187 --> 00:39:17,438
Hm.

990
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,442
You know, I'm glad
you're still doing theater.

991
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,945
You loved it when we were kids.

992
00:39:24,945 --> 00:39:26,155
Yeah. There's nothing better

993
00:39:26,155 --> 00:39:27,782
than being in a room full
of people,

994
00:39:27,782 --> 00:39:31,035
hearing them laugh
or applaud

995
00:39:31,035 --> 00:39:32,912
for something you had
your hand in creating.

996
00:39:33,662 --> 00:39:35,122
You should come to the church.

997
00:39:35,122 --> 00:39:37,375
You know, we do theater
from time to time.

998
00:39:37,375 --> 00:39:39,752
I'm guessing with fewer
sparkly costumes.

999
00:39:39,752 --> 00:39:41,921
Apparently, you've never
been to Pinewood Episcopal.

1000
00:39:42,421 --> 00:39:47,009
Uh, I'm not exactly what
you might call religious.

1001
00:39:47,009 --> 00:39:48,427
It's okay.

1002
00:39:48,427 --> 00:39:50,888
A lot of our congregation
comes from the community.

1003
00:39:50,888 --> 00:39:54,725
The fellowship with the food.
We have a great potluck.

1004
00:39:54,725 --> 00:39:55,893
- Really?
- Yeah.

1005
00:39:56,727 --> 00:39:58,062
Well, I'll keep that in mind.

1006
00:39:58,062 --> 00:39:59,522
You do that.

1007
00:40:07,363 --> 00:40:09,490
Jessie? Pastor Tim?

1008
00:40:09,490 --> 00:40:10,866
Hey, Beth.

1009
00:40:10,866 --> 00:40:12,284
Where'd you get all this?

1010
00:40:12,284 --> 00:40:13,619
The mall.

1011
00:40:13,619 --> 00:40:15,162
Because it's Christmas Eve
everything was on sale.

1012
00:40:15,162 --> 00:40:16,831
Wow. Is there anything left?

1013
00:40:16,831 --> 00:40:18,249
Yeah, the car's still full.

1014
00:40:18,249 --> 00:40:19,625
No, I meant at the mall.

1015
00:40:20,376 --> 00:40:21,919
Did you get
the cake and the tuxes?

1016
00:40:21,919 --> 00:40:24,171
Yes, but no dress.

1017
00:40:24,171 --> 00:40:26,465
I'm never gonna find one
as perfect as the one I had.

1018
00:40:26,465 --> 00:40:28,425
Well, maybe I'll go down there
and see if anyone's around.

1019
00:40:28,425 --> 00:40:29,844
Play the pastor card.

1020
00:40:29,844 --> 00:40:30,803
Does that work?

1021
00:40:30,803 --> 00:40:31,804
Well, you'd be amazed.

1022
00:40:31,804 --> 00:40:33,472
I hardly ever pay
for appetizers.

1023
00:40:33,472 --> 00:40:34,431
Really?

1024
00:40:34,431 --> 00:40:35,766
No.

1025
00:40:35,766 --> 00:40:38,644
Oh, that's too bad.
I love appetizers.

1026
00:40:38,644 --> 00:40:39,979
If I can't talk my way in,

1027
00:40:39,979 --> 00:40:42,106
I've got a few other tricks
up my sleeve.

1028
00:40:42,106 --> 00:40:43,732
Right, Jessie?

1029
00:40:45,401 --> 00:40:46,485
No.

1030
00:40:52,158 --> 00:40:53,617
...appreciate it.

1031
00:40:58,038 --> 00:40:59,206
Okay, so here's the deal.

1032
00:41:00,291 --> 00:41:02,168
Wait, you still drink
Shirley Temples?

1033
00:41:02,168 --> 00:41:03,419
I do.

1034
00:41:03,419 --> 00:41:05,504
When I have a last-minute
wedding extravaganza

1035
00:41:05,504 --> 00:41:08,549
to put together at my house
on Christmas Eve.

1036
00:41:08,549 --> 00:41:10,092
It's fair enough.

1037
00:41:10,092 --> 00:41:11,343
So I talked to Carl,
the owner.

1038
00:41:11,343 --> 00:41:13,012
Wait, isn't this Julian's?

1039
00:41:13,012 --> 00:41:14,054
Yeah.

1040
00:41:14,054 --> 00:41:15,598
But it's owned
by a guy named Carl.

1041
00:41:15,598 --> 00:41:16,724
Yes.

1042
00:41:16,724 --> 00:41:19,393
So why isn't it just Carl's?

1043
00:41:19,393 --> 00:41:20,936
I don't know,
what does it matter?

1044
00:41:21,604 --> 00:41:23,564
Because it's going to bug me.

1045
00:41:25,399 --> 00:41:27,818
Julian is the original
owner from the 1950s.

1046
00:41:27,818 --> 00:41:29,445
Carl is nice,
but a little cheap.

1047
00:41:29,445 --> 00:41:30,988
Didn't want to change the sign.

1048
00:41:30,988 --> 00:41:32,948
Oh. Thank you.

1049
00:41:32,948 --> 00:41:33,741
You're welcome.

1050
00:41:33,741 --> 00:41:34,992
Okay, so Carl said.

1051
00:41:34,992 --> 00:41:36,869
So Carl said that
he caters a lot of events

1052
00:41:36,869 --> 00:41:38,412
in the hall next door.

1053
00:41:38,412 --> 00:41:41,165
Sometimes he needs to get in
and the owners aren't around.

1054
00:41:42,750 --> 00:41:45,794
Oh, I don't like
where this is going.

1055
00:41:56,138 --> 00:41:57,556
- Hey, Grandpa.
- Hey.

1056
00:41:57,556 --> 00:41:59,767
what's best Christmas
present you ever got?

1057
00:41:59,767 --> 00:42:00,851
Why?

1058
00:42:00,851 --> 00:42:02,186
It's for the time capsule.

1059
00:42:02,186 --> 00:42:03,854
We have to answer all these
Christmas questions

1060
00:42:03,854 --> 00:42:05,022
and put it inside

1061
00:42:05,022 --> 00:42:06,732
so we can remember
them when we open it.

1062
00:42:06,732 --> 00:42:09,026
One of them is, what's
the best present you ever got?

1063
00:42:09,026 --> 00:42:11,237
How many times do
I have to answer this?

1064
00:42:11,237 --> 00:42:12,112
Money?

1065
00:42:12,112 --> 00:42:13,697
No. A real present.

1066
00:42:13,697 --> 00:42:17,243
Didn't you ever get a new toy?
Like a train or a pogo stick?

1067
00:42:17,243 --> 00:42:19,828
No. My father believed

1068
00:42:19,828 --> 00:42:22,248
that you should get things
you needed at Christmas.

1069
00:42:22,248 --> 00:42:24,458
Useful things like shoes.

1070
00:42:24,458 --> 00:42:26,126
You got shoes for Christmas?

1071
00:42:26,126 --> 00:42:27,294
If I was lucky.

1072
00:42:27,294 --> 00:42:29,505
You ever got anything
just for fun.

1073
00:42:31,173 --> 00:42:32,341
There was one year

1074
00:42:32,341 --> 00:42:34,718
when my mother took
some of her mad money.

1075
00:42:34,718 --> 00:42:38,138
And she bought me and
my sister a zoetrope.

1076
00:42:39,139 --> 00:42:39,932
What's that?

1077
00:42:39,932 --> 00:42:41,475
Ah...

1078
00:42:41,475 --> 00:42:45,020
A zoetrope, it's a thing.
It's shaped like a like a bowl.

1079
00:42:45,020 --> 00:42:47,106
And it's got pictures inside.

1080
00:42:47,106 --> 00:42:50,818
And when you spun it,
the pictures moved.

1081
00:42:50,818 --> 00:42:51,986
Like watching a movie.

1082
00:42:51,986 --> 00:42:53,070
Yeah. Sort of.

1083
00:42:54,238 --> 00:42:56,282
This one had the Santa
and his reindeer.

1084
00:42:56,282 --> 00:42:58,200
And when you got it going,

1085
00:42:59,076 --> 00:43:01,453
it just looked like
they were flying.

1086
00:43:01,453 --> 00:43:03,747
That does sound neato.

1087
00:43:03,747 --> 00:43:05,124
Oh. It was.

1088
00:43:06,500 --> 00:43:09,461
I didn't understand
how it worked at first,

1089
00:43:09,461 --> 00:43:11,922
but when I figured it out,

1090
00:43:11,922 --> 00:43:14,216
I put one together myself.

1091
00:43:15,884 --> 00:43:18,262
That might have been the
first thing I ever built.

1092
00:43:19,138 --> 00:43:22,224
So it was the best Christmas
present you ever got?

1093
00:43:22,850 --> 00:43:24,685
I'd say so.

1094
00:43:24,685 --> 00:43:26,061
No. What about you?

1095
00:43:26,061 --> 00:43:27,521
Mm. It's hard to pick,

1096
00:43:27,521 --> 00:43:29,648
but I do like getting
those cards

1097
00:43:29,648 --> 00:43:31,942
from you every year
with a $5 bill inside.

1098
00:43:33,319 --> 00:43:35,237
That's my boy.

1099
00:43:36,780 --> 00:43:38,240
Okay. He'll be there
in an hour.

1100
00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:39,575
Just stay warm

1101
00:43:39,575 --> 00:43:41,660
and we'll talk about it
after the Christmas break.

1102
00:43:41,660 --> 00:43:43,037
Okay. Merry Christmas.

1103
00:43:43,787 --> 00:43:45,414
So Triple A is on the way,

1104
00:43:45,414 --> 00:43:47,041
but there are a lot of cars
stuck in the snow,

1105
00:43:47,041 --> 00:43:48,667
so it could be another
couple of hours.

1106
00:43:48,667 --> 00:43:50,544
Well, that's all right.
That gives us a chance to eat.

1107
00:43:50,544 --> 00:43:52,421
Here. Stir that.

1108
00:43:53,005 --> 00:43:54,423
Yep.

1109
00:43:54,423 --> 00:43:56,216
Oh, Did you talk
to the kids at school?

1110
00:43:56,216 --> 00:43:59,094
I did, the power went out,
but they seem fine.

1111
00:43:59,094 --> 00:44:00,304
Why did they break in?

1112
00:44:00,304 --> 00:44:01,889
You know, I don't have
the whole story yet,

1113
00:44:01,889 --> 00:44:05,392
but something about a Christmas
present and a wooden reindeer.

1114
00:44:05,392 --> 00:44:07,227
Is the reindeer
the Christmas present,

1115
00:44:07,227 --> 00:44:08,687
or is that a different deal?

1116
00:44:08,687 --> 00:44:10,022
Unclear.

1117
00:44:10,022 --> 00:44:12,066
At least I'll have
a disastrous Christmas story

1118
00:44:12,066 --> 00:44:14,360
to tell their grandkids.
I know I do.

1119
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:15,944
Oh, can't wait to hear this.

1120
00:44:16,820 --> 00:44:18,113
So, do you remember

1121
00:44:18,113 --> 00:44:21,075
the Tommy Saunders Variety
Hour back in the '60s?

1122
00:44:21,075 --> 00:44:22,701
Sure. He was amazing.

1123
00:44:22,701 --> 00:44:25,079
Well, every year they were
broadcast live on Christmas Eve

1124
00:44:25,079 --> 00:44:26,372
from somebody's living room.

1125
00:44:26,372 --> 00:44:28,082
But it was a big secret
so they wouldn't have

1126
00:44:28,082 --> 00:44:29,583
a million people out
on the lawn, right?

1127
00:44:29,583 --> 00:44:30,584
Makes sense.

1128
00:44:30,584 --> 00:44:32,086
Well, I just started
dating my wife.

1129
00:44:32,086 --> 00:44:33,504
She loved the show,

1130
00:44:33,504 --> 00:44:35,381
so I thought I would
find out where they were

1131
00:44:35,381 --> 00:44:37,549
and then take her there as
a big Christmas surprise.

1132
00:44:37,549 --> 00:44:39,009
Smooth.

1133
00:44:39,009 --> 00:44:40,052
So I was doing apprentice work
at the electric company,

1134
00:44:40,052 --> 00:44:41,303
so I thought I could
figure it out

1135
00:44:41,303 --> 00:44:43,555
by just looking for unusually
high consumption

1136
00:44:43,555 --> 00:44:44,973
in a residential neighborhood.

1137
00:44:44,973 --> 00:44:46,433
Well, to make a long
story short,

1138
00:44:46,433 --> 00:44:48,268
I ended up blacking out
half the city.

1139
00:44:48,268 --> 00:44:50,938
No, you caused
the power outage?

1140
00:44:50,938 --> 00:44:52,981
My friend Daisy
told me about that.

1141
00:44:52,981 --> 00:44:55,150
Yep. Well, you remember
what it was like

1142
00:44:55,150 --> 00:44:56,819
to be young and in love?

1143
00:44:57,695 --> 00:44:58,946
I do.

1144
00:45:01,865 --> 00:45:03,492
Almost there.

1145
00:45:05,119 --> 00:45:06,370
Just like old times, huh?

1146
00:45:06,370 --> 00:45:07,579
We shouldn't be doing this.

1147
00:45:07,579 --> 00:45:08,706
Carl said it's fine.

1148
00:45:08,706 --> 00:45:10,958
Oh, well, if Carl said...

1149
00:45:10,958 --> 00:45:12,793
It's breaking and entering.

1150
00:45:12,793 --> 00:45:14,962
Oh, the window's open.
It's not breaking.

1151
00:45:14,962 --> 00:45:16,255
it's just entering.

1152
00:45:17,423 --> 00:45:18,549
You're a pastor.

1153
00:45:18,549 --> 00:45:20,467
Isn't there a commandment
about this?

1154
00:45:20,467 --> 00:45:22,469
Yeah, there's one about
stealing, which we're not.

1155
00:45:22,469 --> 00:45:23,804
We're retrieving
a wedding dress

1156
00:45:23,804 --> 00:45:25,639
that happens
to belong to your sister.

1157
00:45:25,639 --> 00:45:27,724
When did you become such
a stickler for the rules?

1158
00:45:27,724 --> 00:45:31,103
I am not a stickler.
I break rules all the time.

1159
00:45:31,103 --> 00:45:32,229
- Really?
- Yeah.

1160
00:45:32,229 --> 00:45:34,440
Really. Okay, um,
give me an example.

1161
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:36,066
Okay.

1162
00:45:36,066 --> 00:45:37,776
I, uh...

1163
00:45:37,776 --> 00:45:40,237
Well, last week, I was baking
Christmas cookies,

1164
00:45:40,237 --> 00:45:43,323
and the recipe called
for one teaspoon of vanilla,

1165
00:45:43,323 --> 00:45:45,409
but I put in two.

1166
00:45:45,409 --> 00:45:46,452
Wow.

1167
00:45:46,452 --> 00:45:49,455
Yeah. You're a...
you're a rebel.

1168
00:45:51,498 --> 00:45:53,125
Can we do this?
It's freezing out.

1169
00:45:53,125 --> 00:45:54,293
Okay, but wait, wait.

1170
00:45:54,293 --> 00:45:56,503
What if somebody sees us
and calls the cops?

1171
00:45:56,503 --> 00:45:59,047
I'd never do anything to
put you in jeopardy, Jessie.

1172
00:45:59,047 --> 00:46:00,257
Ever.

1173
00:46:01,675 --> 00:46:03,510
Fine. But if we get caught,

1174
00:46:03,510 --> 00:46:05,762
I'm gonna say it was all your
idea, and you made me do it.

1175
00:46:05,762 --> 00:46:08,056
- So, just like our first date.
- That wasn't a date.

1176
00:46:16,190 --> 00:46:17,274
Got it.

1177
00:46:17,274 --> 00:46:18,400
All right, it's freezing.

1178
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,068
Okay, so this must
be the place.

1179
00:46:20,068 --> 00:46:22,321
Why don't you check over there
and I'll check over here?

1180
00:46:22,321 --> 00:46:23,113
Okay.

1181
00:46:23,113 --> 00:46:24,573
Let's go check it out.

1182
00:46:31,705 --> 00:46:35,542
Hey, um, may I ask
you a question?

1183
00:46:35,542 --> 00:46:36,919
Yeah. Of course.

1184
00:46:38,629 --> 00:46:40,589
Why did you break up with me?

1185
00:46:41,590 --> 00:46:44,051
Uh, I didn't.

1186
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,012
Yeah. You did.

1187
00:46:47,012 --> 00:46:49,473
No. You broke up with me.

1188
00:46:50,182 --> 00:46:52,309
I absolutely did not.

1189
00:46:52,309 --> 00:46:54,061
I remember it like it
was yesterday.

1190
00:46:54,061 --> 00:46:56,104
It was our high school
graduation.

1191
00:46:56,104 --> 00:46:57,439
We were out in
the football field.

1192
00:46:57,439 --> 00:46:59,274
Lisa Turner was wearing
those glasses

1193
00:46:59,274 --> 00:47:00,984
that said class of 2000.

1194
00:47:00,984 --> 00:47:05,405
Which totally isn't important,
but it just popped in my head.

1195
00:47:05,405 --> 00:47:09,243
Anyway, you came up to me right
before we got our diplomas

1196
00:47:09,243 --> 00:47:12,371
and you said, Jessie,
we're through.

1197
00:47:12,371 --> 00:47:14,373
And then you just
you walked away

1198
00:47:14,373 --> 00:47:16,542
and you never spoke
to me again.

1199
00:47:16,959 --> 00:47:18,126
Yes. That all happened.

1200
00:47:18,126 --> 00:47:19,586
I mean, the whole Lisa Turner
glasses thing,

1201
00:47:19,586 --> 00:47:21,588
I don't remember, but
I'll take your word for it.

1202
00:47:21,588 --> 00:47:25,050
Okay, then. So, ergo, ipso
facto, you broke up with me.

1203
00:47:25,050 --> 00:47:27,511
No. You broke up
with me the day before.

1204
00:47:27,511 --> 00:47:29,263
What?
No, I didn't.

1205
00:47:29,263 --> 00:47:30,138
Yes, you did.

1206
00:47:30,138 --> 00:47:31,640
Jeremy Tate's graduation party.

1207
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,350
Him and David Chin
were throwing people

1208
00:47:33,350 --> 00:47:35,227
into his father's pool
and you were annoyed.

1209
00:47:35,227 --> 00:47:38,480
There was a sign right
there saying no horseplay.

1210
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,148
There's the stickler.

1211
00:47:40,482 --> 00:47:43,110
Anyway, you came up to me
and you said,

1212
00:47:43,110 --> 00:47:46,446
Tim, I've decided to take
the offer to do theater at NYU.

1213
00:47:46,446 --> 00:47:47,823
You know, we both agreed

1214
00:47:47,823 --> 00:47:49,741
that we were going to go
to Oregon State together.

1215
00:47:49,741 --> 00:47:52,869
And you took that to mean that
I was breaking up with you.

1216
00:47:52,869 --> 00:47:54,246
You were going to college
across the country

1217
00:47:54,246 --> 00:47:55,831
how am I supposed
to take that?

1218
00:47:56,164 --> 00:47:58,792
I was willing to try
the long distance.

1219
00:47:58,792 --> 00:47:59,918
I told you that.

1220
00:47:59,918 --> 00:48:01,461
And I told you that
it doesn't work.

1221
00:48:01,461 --> 00:48:03,672
Ergo, ipso facto,
you going to NYU

1222
00:48:03,672 --> 00:48:04,673
was breaking up with me.

1223
00:48:04,673 --> 00:48:06,049
No, I never said that.

1224
00:48:06,049 --> 00:48:08,385
I said that we should...
we should think about it,

1225
00:48:08,385 --> 00:48:10,095
and then we could
figure it out.

1226
00:48:10,095 --> 00:48:11,972
But then the next day
at graduation,

1227
00:48:11,972 --> 00:48:13,640
you said that we were through.

1228
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,017
Jessie, I was hurt,

1229
00:48:15,809 --> 00:48:18,186
and I was being a little petty.

1230
00:48:19,354 --> 00:48:20,981
But I thought once
you thought about it

1231
00:48:20,981 --> 00:48:23,150
that you would realize
that it wasn't going to work.

1232
00:48:23,150 --> 00:48:25,027
And I didn't want you to...

1233
00:48:25,986 --> 00:48:27,696
I didn't want you to say
it first.

1234
00:48:28,238 --> 00:48:30,449
Why didn't you just talk to me?

1235
00:48:31,658 --> 00:48:33,452
You broke my heart, Jessie.

1236
00:48:36,914 --> 00:48:38,790
You broke mine, too.

1237
00:48:44,922 --> 00:48:47,341
Oh, I found the dress.

1238
00:49:08,070 --> 00:49:10,113
Oh, that was delicious.

1239
00:49:10,113 --> 00:49:11,990
Well, it's not my usual
Christmas Eve spread,

1240
00:49:11,990 --> 00:49:13,533
but it turned out all right.

1241
00:49:13,533 --> 00:49:16,161
Compared to most holiday meals
I've had, this was a feast.

1242
00:49:16,161 --> 00:49:18,747
I remember one year Melanie
was on a ski trip

1243
00:49:18,747 --> 00:49:20,040
with some college friends,

1244
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:21,458
and it was just my wife
and me.

1245
00:49:21,458 --> 00:49:23,710
So we decided to go small.
You know, keep it simple.

1246
00:49:23,710 --> 00:49:25,545
Oh, that's never a good idea.

1247
00:49:25,545 --> 00:49:27,047
Well, I know that now.

1248
00:49:27,047 --> 00:49:28,799
We both thought the other
was going to go food shopping.

1249
00:49:28,799 --> 00:49:31,760
We got up Christmas morning
with absolutely nothing to eat.

1250
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:33,637
I mean, the cupboards
were bare.

1251
00:49:33,637 --> 00:49:35,013
Oh, what'd you do?

1252
00:49:35,013 --> 00:49:36,932
Well, you know, all the stores
were closed

1253
00:49:36,932 --> 00:49:39,434
and all the good restaurants
that were open were booked.

1254
00:49:39,434 --> 00:49:41,520
So we drove around
for about an hour

1255
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:44,272
and found a little diner
that had a Santa Claus cutout

1256
00:49:44,272 --> 00:49:46,066
in the window and
a lot of empty tables.

1257
00:49:46,066 --> 00:49:47,275
Let me guess,
there's a reason

1258
00:49:47,275 --> 00:49:48,735
there were so many
empty tables.

1259
00:49:48,735 --> 00:49:51,780
Worst meal I ever had
in my life.

1260
00:49:51,780 --> 00:49:54,074
But at least we got
a good story to tell.

1261
00:49:54,074 --> 00:49:55,325
I love a good story,

1262
00:49:55,325 --> 00:49:57,035
especially when it has
to do with Christmas.

1263
00:49:57,869 --> 00:49:59,287
Yeah, so do I.

1264
00:50:00,414 --> 00:50:02,541
I think this might
make another one.

1265
00:50:02,541 --> 00:50:04,918
Yeah. Yeah, I wish I had some
dessert to offer you,

1266
00:50:04,918 --> 00:50:07,713
but I was going to make a pie
for the kids tomorrow.

1267
00:50:07,713 --> 00:50:09,881
Well, I'm not taking
your kids Christmas pie.

1268
00:50:09,881 --> 00:50:11,174
I saw you had
some marshmallows.

1269
00:50:11,174 --> 00:50:12,718
You want to roast them?

1270
00:50:12,718 --> 00:50:15,554
Uh, sure.
Fireplace is right there.

1271
00:50:15,554 --> 00:50:17,431
You can't roast marshmallows
in a fireplace.

1272
00:50:17,431 --> 00:50:19,850
You got to be outside
with a big roaring fire.

1273
00:50:19,850 --> 00:50:22,102
Well, there is a fire
pit outside.

1274
00:50:22,102 --> 00:50:25,021
It's freezing and snowing, but.

1275
00:50:25,021 --> 00:50:26,857
That's what the fire's for.

1276
00:50:28,066 --> 00:50:29,901
Come on, don't you think
this Christmas story

1277
00:50:29,901 --> 00:50:31,361
needs one more chapter?

1278
00:50:32,988 --> 00:50:36,283
So you've now heard two of my
disastrous Christmas stories.

1279
00:50:36,283 --> 00:50:37,951
I think it's your turn.

1280
00:50:37,951 --> 00:50:40,287
Uh, I don't think I have one.

1281
00:50:40,287 --> 00:50:41,788
Oh, come on,
you have to have one.

1282
00:50:41,788 --> 00:50:43,832
Some Christmas gone
horribly wrong.

1283
00:50:43,832 --> 00:50:46,126
You've never even burnt
the Christmas cookies.

1284
00:50:46,126 --> 00:50:50,172
Oh. When Winnie was six,
she tried to make them

1285
00:50:50,172 --> 00:50:52,758
and she burnt them
beyond recognition.

1286
00:50:52,758 --> 00:50:54,301
What'd you do?

1287
00:50:54,301 --> 00:50:55,427
I ate them all.

1288
00:50:56,762 --> 00:50:58,013
And I told them that
I loved my cookies burnt.

1289
00:50:58,013 --> 00:50:59,598
Ever since then, she--

1290
00:50:59,598 --> 00:51:00,932
She's only made
you burn cookies.

1291
00:51:00,932 --> 00:51:01,725
Yeah.

1292
00:51:01,725 --> 00:51:03,143
To this day.

1293
00:51:03,602 --> 00:51:06,396
Well, disaster averted.
What about gifts?

1294
00:51:06,396 --> 00:51:08,523
Did you ever forget
to buy for somebody?

1295
00:51:09,065 --> 00:51:10,567
Uh... Oh.

1296
00:51:10,567 --> 00:51:13,612
When Conrad was nine,
all he wanted for Christmas

1297
00:51:13,612 --> 00:51:15,363
was a new baseball glove.

1298
00:51:15,363 --> 00:51:19,326
So Greg bought it for him,
and then he forgot it at work.

1299
00:51:19,326 --> 00:51:21,495
And we didn't figure it out
until Christmas morning

1300
00:51:21,495 --> 00:51:23,038
when we were
opening presents.

1301
00:51:23,038 --> 00:51:24,831
Conrad must have
been devastated.

1302
00:51:24,831 --> 00:51:27,459
Oh, that was definitely
a tantrum brewing.

1303
00:51:27,459 --> 00:51:29,711
So I came up with a wild
scavenger hunt

1304
00:51:29,711 --> 00:51:32,005
and told them that
there was one more gift.

1305
00:51:32,005 --> 00:51:33,423
He solved all of the clues,

1306
00:51:33,423 --> 00:51:35,884
and then him and his dad
drove to the station

1307
00:51:35,884 --> 00:51:37,094
and found the glove.

1308
00:51:37,094 --> 00:51:37,969
Ah.

1309
00:51:37,969 --> 00:51:39,971
Sorry, I don't really have

1310
00:51:39,971 --> 00:51:41,473
any disastrous
Christmas stories.

1311
00:51:41,473 --> 00:51:43,350
I guess I've just been lucky.

1312
00:51:44,559 --> 00:51:46,645
Sounds like it's your
family that's been lucky.

1313
00:51:47,813 --> 00:51:50,273
Thank you.
I hope so.

1314
00:51:50,273 --> 00:51:51,858
Christmas means the world
to them.

1315
00:51:52,567 --> 00:51:54,569
And your kids mean
the world to you?

1316
00:51:54,569 --> 00:51:55,904
Exactly.

1317
00:51:56,863 --> 00:51:58,198
I wish they were here.

1318
00:51:58,198 --> 00:52:01,201
It's not the same without burnt
Christmas cookies.

1319
00:52:01,201 --> 00:52:02,244
Oh.

1320
00:52:03,703 --> 00:52:05,831
I hope you like your
marshmallows burnt, too.

1321
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,878
Is that the wedding dress?

1322
00:52:11,878 --> 00:52:14,089
- Yeah.
- Oh!

1323
00:52:15,757 --> 00:52:17,217
Thank you so much.

1324
00:52:17,217 --> 00:52:18,552
Holly, Christmas.

1325
00:52:19,261 --> 00:52:20,428
Isn't it amazing?

1326
00:52:20,428 --> 00:52:22,722
Beth, where in the world
did you get a tent?

1327
00:52:22,722 --> 00:52:24,391
Harvey's Tent
Party supplies.

1328
00:52:24,391 --> 00:52:26,351
Why? Where'd you get yours?

1329
00:52:27,644 --> 00:52:32,399
I'm sorry.
Um, I think I need to, uh.

1330
00:52:32,399 --> 00:52:36,695
I need to go inside.
Um... excuse me.

1331
00:52:49,457 --> 00:52:51,042
Need any help?

1332
00:52:51,042 --> 00:52:54,170
He asked after all the
hard work is already done.

1333
00:52:54,170 --> 00:52:56,423
Well, you married me,
you knew what you were getting.

1334
00:52:57,257 --> 00:52:58,800
How is it going in there?

1335
00:53:00,093 --> 00:53:01,177
Quietly.

1336
00:53:02,679 --> 00:53:06,016
He hasn't said much since
the incident in the basement.

1337
00:53:06,016 --> 00:53:07,517
You have no idea

1338
00:53:07,517 --> 00:53:09,477
why he's so upset
about your mother's clock.

1339
00:53:09,477 --> 00:53:11,062
He hated that clock.

1340
00:53:11,062 --> 00:53:13,648
He used to try
to hide it every year.

1341
00:53:13,648 --> 00:53:16,902
But my father not talking
for an extended period of time

1342
00:53:16,902 --> 00:53:18,778
is something I'm choosing
to view

1343
00:53:18,778 --> 00:53:20,989
as a Christmas miracle.

1344
00:53:21,698 --> 00:53:24,910
Eli, you can't let this go on.

1345
00:53:24,910 --> 00:53:26,244
Sure I can.

1346
00:53:26,786 --> 00:53:30,332
Okay, then I can't
let this go on.

1347
00:53:30,332 --> 00:53:31,750
It's Christmas.

1348
00:53:31,750 --> 00:53:34,294
Don't you want to have a
nice time with your father?

1349
00:53:34,294 --> 00:53:35,462
Well, of course I do.

1350
00:53:35,462 --> 00:53:37,380
But I don't know
how to do that.

1351
00:53:37,380 --> 00:53:38,423
Do you?

1352
00:53:38,423 --> 00:53:41,718
Not yet, but I'm working
on it.

1353
00:53:42,302 --> 00:53:43,428
That's not your job.

1354
00:53:43,428 --> 00:53:45,263
It has to be someone's.

1355
00:53:45,263 --> 00:53:46,348
Dad, will you
take pictures

1356
00:53:46,348 --> 00:53:47,933
of what we're putting
in the capsule?

1357
00:53:47,933 --> 00:53:50,143
Yes. I'm coming right now.

1358
00:53:50,143 --> 00:53:52,729
Stay right there.
You're beautiful.

1359
00:53:55,523 --> 00:53:57,359
Here I come.
Okay, let's see what we got.

1360
00:53:59,235 --> 00:54:00,695
- Good job.
- Thanks, Grandpa.

1361
00:54:02,364 --> 00:54:06,534
Okay. Let's see what future
generations will learn

1362
00:54:06,534 --> 00:54:10,830
was important to the Kramer
family at Christmas, shall we?

1363
00:54:10,830 --> 00:54:12,540
Let's see what we have here.

1364
00:54:13,124 --> 00:54:14,584
Family photo.

1365
00:54:14,584 --> 00:54:15,585
Check.

1366
00:54:17,504 --> 00:54:18,880
In it goes.

1367
00:54:20,173 --> 00:54:23,218
It's the Christmas ornament
I made when I was a kid.

1368
00:54:23,218 --> 00:54:24,719
Do you remember this, Dad?

1369
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:25,845
I do.

1370
00:54:27,055 --> 00:54:29,516
Okay. What else do we have?

1371
00:54:29,516 --> 00:54:33,728
Oh, your mother's recipe for
her yummy gingerbread cookies.

1372
00:54:35,563 --> 00:54:37,148
Let's see what else
we have here.

1373
00:54:37,816 --> 00:54:40,110
The comic book you got
for Christmas last year.

1374
00:54:40,110 --> 00:54:42,278
Are you sure you want
to part with that, Alex?

1375
00:54:42,862 --> 00:54:44,406
It's important to me.

1376
00:54:45,740 --> 00:54:48,118
Okay. In it goes.

1377
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:54,666
And finally, we have
your grandfather's tie.

1378
00:54:55,291 --> 00:54:58,086
Not sure what that has
to do with Christmas but.

1379
00:54:58,712 --> 00:55:01,214
That was your mother's gift
to me one year.

1380
00:55:05,885 --> 00:55:07,846
That's very nice, Dad.
Thank you.

1381
00:55:11,599 --> 00:55:14,102
You know, we don't really have
anything of mom's in here.

1382
00:55:14,102 --> 00:55:15,478
Do you want to go see

1383
00:55:15,478 --> 00:55:17,772
if there's anything else of
hers in the basement?

1384
00:55:20,275 --> 00:55:23,653
Seal it up
and be done with it.

1385
00:55:24,988 --> 00:55:26,114
Okay.

1386
00:55:28,074 --> 00:55:29,909
Grandma would have liked this.

1387
00:55:29,909 --> 00:55:31,911
I wish she was here
to help us with it.

1388
00:55:33,455 --> 00:55:34,664
Me too, Alex.

1389
00:55:36,499 --> 00:55:38,043
All right.

1390
00:55:38,043 --> 00:55:40,170
Let's get a photo of this,
shall we?

1391
00:55:48,720 --> 00:55:51,097
Well, you've been saying
an hour or two all day.

1392
00:55:51,097 --> 00:55:53,266
Oh, no, I know it's snowing.

1393
00:55:53,266 --> 00:55:55,518
No, no, don't put me on hold.

1394
00:55:56,269 --> 00:55:58,355
They put you on hold anyway.

1395
00:55:58,355 --> 00:56:00,065
And disconnected.

1396
00:56:00,065 --> 00:56:01,399
Here's a question for you.

1397
00:56:01,399 --> 00:56:03,234
How would you feel
about my truck

1398
00:56:03,234 --> 00:56:05,278
being parked in your
driveway until spring?

1399
00:56:05,278 --> 00:56:07,614
You haven't seen
my son's car yet, have you?

1400
00:56:07,614 --> 00:56:09,616
Trust me, your truck
is an improvement.

1401
00:56:09,616 --> 00:56:11,868
Look, I don't want to
inconvenience you anymore.

1402
00:56:11,868 --> 00:56:14,120
Why don't I just call a cab
and I'll go home and come back

1403
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,789
when I know the tow
truck's on the way.

1404
00:56:15,789 --> 00:56:17,123
No, it's not an inconvenience.

1405
00:56:17,123 --> 00:56:19,209
I'm just about to put
on Miracle on 34th Street.

1406
00:56:19,209 --> 00:56:20,710
You're welcome to join.

1407
00:56:20,710 --> 00:56:21,586
Well...

1408
00:56:22,378 --> 00:56:23,880
Are you sure?

1409
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:25,131
Well, I've got to warn you,

1410
00:56:25,131 --> 00:56:26,424
it's my favorite
Christmas movie.

1411
00:56:26,424 --> 00:56:28,051
And I cry like a baby
every time.

1412
00:56:28,051 --> 00:56:30,136
Well, this is
a no-judgment zone.

1413
00:56:33,014 --> 00:56:35,558
Oh. Thanks.

1414
00:56:47,654 --> 00:56:49,614
Regina. We're back.

1415
00:56:52,117 --> 00:56:53,535
Hi.

1416
00:56:53,535 --> 00:56:55,203
Oh. Hi, Ivy.

1417
00:56:55,703 --> 00:56:56,996
Um. What happened?

1418
00:56:56,996 --> 00:56:59,332
Uh, well, our flight
was canceled.

1419
00:56:59,332 --> 00:57:00,166
Not a word from you.

1420
00:57:00,166 --> 00:57:01,167
I wasn't going to.

1421
00:57:01,167 --> 00:57:03,503
You told us to
just come on in.

1422
00:57:04,462 --> 00:57:07,465
We didn't want you to be
alone for Christmas.

1423
00:57:24,357 --> 00:57:25,942
Hey, Jessie. Sorry.

1424
00:57:25,942 --> 00:57:27,360
No, that's okay.
What's up, Max?

1425
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,028
I just got to go
down the street

1426
00:57:29,028 --> 00:57:30,280
and walk my grandma
over here.

1427
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:32,323
Oh, I love your grandma.

1428
00:57:32,323 --> 00:57:33,741
Is she excited
about the wedding?

1429
00:57:33,741 --> 00:57:37,537
Very. Except I'm worried
that there might not be one.

1430
00:57:37,537 --> 00:57:38,538
Why? Why not?

1431
00:57:38,538 --> 00:57:40,456
Beth is freaking out.

1432
00:57:40,456 --> 00:57:42,584
We couldn't figure out
a way to hang the angels

1433
00:57:42,584 --> 00:57:44,335
from the tent without
cutting holes in it.

1434
00:57:44,335 --> 00:57:46,296
She put up a tent in an hour.

1435
00:57:46,296 --> 00:57:47,881
And she's freaking out
about that?

1436
00:57:47,881 --> 00:57:49,340
Yeah, that's what she says.

1437
00:57:49,340 --> 00:57:53,845
But, um, I'm worried it
might be something more.

1438
00:57:53,845 --> 00:57:56,723
Will you talk to her,
maybe with Pastor Tim?

1439
00:57:56,723 --> 00:57:58,391
Yes. Of course.

1440
00:57:58,391 --> 00:58:00,727
- Thanks, Jessie.
- Yeah.

1441
00:58:12,780 --> 00:58:13,823
We need to talk.

1442
00:58:13,823 --> 00:58:15,074
Yeah, I agree.

1443
00:58:15,074 --> 00:58:16,868
Um. You and I--

1444
00:58:16,868 --> 00:58:19,204
No, no, no, we need
to talk to Beth.

1445
00:58:19,204 --> 00:58:21,289
I think she might be
getting cold feet.

1446
00:58:21,289 --> 00:58:23,041
Oh, yeah.

1447
00:58:27,462 --> 00:58:28,630
Beth, are you okay?

1448
00:58:28,630 --> 00:58:29,505
No.

1449
00:58:29,505 --> 00:58:30,924
Something's not right.

1450
00:58:30,924 --> 00:58:34,677
Beth, honey, we can find
a place for the angels.

1451
00:58:34,677 --> 00:58:36,054
It's not about the angels.

1452
00:58:36,054 --> 00:58:37,138
It's--

1453
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:40,975
I mean, have
you seen the backyard?

1454
00:58:40,975 --> 00:58:42,352
How could I not?

1455
00:58:42,352 --> 00:58:47,482
I know it's beautiful,
but do you think it's too much?

1456
00:58:48,316 --> 00:58:49,567
It's just once I saw it all,

1457
00:58:49,567 --> 00:58:52,153
it just got really real,
you know.

1458
00:58:52,153 --> 00:58:55,782
It's like suddenly
I realized I'm getting married.

1459
00:58:55,782 --> 00:58:57,951
Beth, you've
been planning this wedding

1460
00:58:57,951 --> 00:59:00,453
since you were six years old.

1461
00:59:00,453 --> 00:59:04,040
Now, back then, you wanted
Santa to perform the ceremony.

1462
00:59:05,041 --> 00:59:07,293
You're not wearing a Santa
suit, are you?

1463
00:59:07,293 --> 00:59:08,795
That's at the cleaners.

1464
00:59:09,504 --> 00:59:11,673
My point is,

1465
00:59:11,673 --> 00:59:14,008
the things that were important
to you when you were a kid

1466
00:59:14,008 --> 00:59:15,426
don't have to be
the same things

1467
00:59:15,426 --> 00:59:17,178
that are important to you now.

1468
00:59:17,178 --> 00:59:19,597
She's right.
You know, we are who we are

1469
00:59:19,597 --> 00:59:21,724
because of what we've
experienced in our past.

1470
00:59:21,724 --> 00:59:25,478
Love we had the life
we thought we wanted.

1471
00:59:25,478 --> 00:59:27,355
But sometimes you have
to let go of the past

1472
00:59:27,355 --> 00:59:28,690
and look to the future.

1473
00:59:28,690 --> 00:59:31,317
Yeah, what's done is done.

1474
00:59:31,317 --> 00:59:33,444
Does that mean you don't
appreciate where you've been?

1475
00:59:33,444 --> 00:59:36,239
It's just you need to look
forward to where you're going.

1476
00:59:36,239 --> 00:59:40,493
Even if it's without
the ones you once loved.

1477
00:59:42,787 --> 00:59:44,497
Are we still talking
about me?

1478
00:59:44,497 --> 00:59:45,832
- Yes. Of course.
- Yes.

1479
00:59:45,832 --> 00:59:47,000
Yes, yes.

1480
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:48,334
Look, I don't think
you're freaking out

1481
00:59:48,334 --> 00:59:49,836
about the wedding
being too much

1482
00:59:49,836 --> 00:59:51,504
or not what you
thought it would be.

1483
00:59:51,504 --> 00:59:53,381
Because none of that matters.

1484
00:59:53,381 --> 00:59:57,468
What matters is that at the
end, you'll be marrying Max.

1485
00:59:57,468 --> 00:59:59,345
And you love him,
and he loves you.

1486
00:59:59,345 --> 01:00:01,014
And that's what's important.

1487
01:00:03,808 --> 01:00:05,393
You're right.

1488
01:00:05,393 --> 01:00:08,980
Okay.
Let's get me married.

1489
01:00:08,980 --> 01:00:10,189
All right.

1490
01:00:10,189 --> 01:00:11,774
Yes.

1491
01:00:15,445 --> 01:00:18,239
Walter, we'll be eating soon.

1492
01:00:19,782 --> 01:00:21,200
I'm not really hungry.

1493
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:23,286
I've made your favorites,
scalloped potatoes,

1494
01:00:23,286 --> 01:00:25,079
the stuffing
with the chestnuts.

1495
01:00:25,079 --> 01:00:26,998
And the turkey.

1496
01:00:27,707 --> 01:00:30,710
Well, maybe I could take my
plate in the living room

1497
01:00:30,710 --> 01:00:34,756
so I can watch TV while I eat
and I fix the reception.

1498
01:00:34,756 --> 01:00:36,883
Well, thank you,
but it's Christmas Eve

1499
01:00:36,883 --> 01:00:39,093
and you should eat dinner
with your family.

1500
01:00:39,844 --> 01:00:43,514
Um... The three of you
are family.

1501
01:00:44,641 --> 01:00:48,603
I'm just some burden staying in
the guest room for a few weeks.

1502
01:00:48,603 --> 01:00:51,064
What would make you say that?

1503
01:00:51,064 --> 01:00:53,191
My son saying it first.

1504
01:00:54,359 --> 01:00:57,445
I know I'm not the father
he wishes he had.

1505
01:00:58,071 --> 01:01:01,824
Walter... do you think maybe
it's because he feels

1506
01:01:01,824 --> 01:01:04,577
like he's not the son
you wish you had?

1507
01:01:06,287 --> 01:01:11,125
You are not just a house guest,
and you will never be a burden.

1508
01:01:12,251 --> 01:01:15,880
It's Christmas, so you need
to march up those stairs

1509
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:20,635
and have dinner with your
family and talk, really talk.

1510
01:01:20,635 --> 01:01:23,554
That's what great
relationships are about.

1511
01:01:24,138 --> 01:01:26,891
You sound just like
Eli's mother.

1512
01:01:28,476 --> 01:01:32,188
That is the nicest thing
you have ever said to me.

1513
01:01:38,361 --> 01:01:40,655
Now, are you going
up those stairs?

1514
01:01:42,323 --> 01:01:44,701
Are you sure that's
what Eli wants?

1515
01:01:44,701 --> 01:01:46,285
It's what I want.

1516
01:01:47,870 --> 01:01:50,373
Coming up, find out
which lucky family is getting

1517
01:01:50,373 --> 01:01:53,292
a surprise visit from the
Tommy Saunders Variety Hour

1518
01:01:53,292 --> 01:01:55,503
Christmas Eve Special.

1519
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,256
Sweetheart, you need
to tell your father

1520
01:01:58,256 --> 01:02:00,133
to come up for dinner.

1521
01:02:00,633 --> 01:02:01,926
I thought you just did that.

1522
01:02:01,926 --> 01:02:03,678
He needs to hear it from you.

1523
01:02:04,178 --> 01:02:07,014
Well, I need to hear that
he wants to come up for dinner.

1524
01:02:07,849 --> 01:02:09,767
Eli, what is it going to take

1525
01:02:09,767 --> 01:02:12,353
to get the two of you
to bury the hatchet?

1526
01:02:13,229 --> 01:02:15,565
An act of God.

1527
01:02:21,779 --> 01:02:23,406
You were saying?

1528
01:02:34,751 --> 01:02:37,670
You look beautiful.

1529
01:02:38,546 --> 01:02:40,006
Well, you look pretty
good yourself.

1530
01:02:40,006 --> 01:02:41,299
Ah.

1531
01:02:42,425 --> 01:02:44,343
How's, uh... how's Beth doing?

1532
01:02:44,343 --> 01:02:47,221
Oh, I think our talk
with her helped.

1533
01:02:47,221 --> 01:02:48,389
- Good.
- Yeah.

1534
01:02:48,389 --> 01:02:51,100
I'm glad that was
an important message.

1535
01:02:51,100 --> 01:02:52,268
Letting go of the past.

1536
01:02:52,268 --> 01:02:54,061
Yeah.

1537
01:02:54,061 --> 01:02:57,231
It's tough, though,
when it meant so much...

1538
01:02:58,399 --> 01:02:59,650
to Beth, I mean.

1539
01:02:59,650 --> 01:03:00,985
- And Max.
- Yes.

1540
01:03:00,985 --> 01:03:03,404
To want the perfect
wedding as much as she did.

1541
01:03:03,404 --> 01:03:04,780
He did.

1542
01:03:05,364 --> 01:03:08,784
But they're not the same
people as they used to be.

1543
01:03:08,784 --> 01:03:10,703
Yeah. Time will do that
to you.

1544
01:03:10,703 --> 01:03:12,205
I just hope they're
both grateful

1545
01:03:12,205 --> 01:03:13,831
for the time they had
those dreams.

1546
01:03:15,541 --> 01:03:17,251
Yeah, I think they are.

1547
01:03:18,461 --> 01:03:19,504
Friends.

1548
01:03:20,213 --> 01:03:21,589
Friends?

1549
01:03:23,382 --> 01:03:24,967
Friends.

1550
01:03:33,518 --> 01:03:34,894
Grandpa?

1551
01:03:36,020 --> 01:03:37,355
Alex.

1552
01:03:37,355 --> 01:03:39,232
What are you doing
in mom's salon?

1553
01:03:39,232 --> 01:03:41,108
Oh, it's too dark
in the basement.

1554
01:03:41,108 --> 01:03:44,403
Dad said the power is out
all over the neighborhood.

1555
01:03:44,403 --> 01:03:45,947
What do you think caused it?

1556
01:03:45,947 --> 01:03:48,741
Somebody's doing something
they shouldn't have been doing.

1557
01:03:48,741 --> 01:03:50,243
Mm.

1558
01:03:50,243 --> 01:03:52,245
Do you think Santa will still
be able to find our house?

1559
01:03:52,245 --> 01:03:54,997
Oh, he's still got
Rudolph's nose, right?

1560
01:03:54,997 --> 01:03:56,749
I'm sure there's going to be
no problem.

1561
01:03:58,084 --> 01:04:00,628
The time capsule.
Did it get buried?

1562
01:04:00,628 --> 01:04:01,671
Not yet.

1563
01:04:01,671 --> 01:04:04,131
Oh, well, maybe
after dinner, then.

1564
01:04:04,131 --> 01:04:05,174
Hm.

1565
01:04:05,174 --> 01:04:06,592
You're going to help,
aren't you?

1566
01:04:06,592 --> 01:04:07,969
Sure. Of course I am.

1567
01:04:07,969 --> 01:04:09,512
Good.

1568
01:04:09,512 --> 01:04:13,766
I wonder what things will be
like when we dig it up in 1967.

1569
01:04:13,766 --> 01:04:17,395
Maybe there will be robots and
spaceships and stuff like that.

1570
01:04:18,354 --> 01:04:21,148
You read too many
comic books.

1571
01:04:21,691 --> 01:04:24,944
Seven years seems like
a really long time from now.

1572
01:04:24,944 --> 01:04:27,905
But it's not.
It goes by fast.

1573
01:04:28,781 --> 01:04:31,033
So everything will be
the same.

1574
01:04:31,033 --> 01:04:32,952
Do you think Christmas
will be the same?

1575
01:04:33,744 --> 01:04:36,372
Toys will probably
be different, I'm sure.

1576
01:04:36,372 --> 01:04:38,791
And you know the things
we wrap them up in.

1577
01:04:38,791 --> 01:04:39,917
Hm.

1578
01:04:39,917 --> 01:04:41,586
It doesn't really matter.

1579
01:04:41,586 --> 01:04:43,212
The teacher that gave us
the assignment

1580
01:04:43,212 --> 01:04:44,547
to do the time capsule

1581
01:04:44,547 --> 01:04:47,425
said we should think about
when we open the box.

1582
01:04:47,425 --> 01:04:49,719
What do we want the future
us to know about the now us?

1583
01:04:49,719 --> 01:04:51,596
What do we want to remember?

1584
01:04:52,305 --> 01:04:53,931
Yeah. Remembering
is a good thing.

1585
01:04:54,849 --> 01:04:56,225
I guess if you do,

1586
01:04:56,225 --> 01:04:58,603
then Christmas will always be
exactly like it is now.

1587
01:04:59,145 --> 01:05:01,814
Alex, honey, come get
washed up for dinner.

1588
01:05:01,814 --> 01:05:03,065
Okay, mom.

1589
01:05:03,065 --> 01:05:04,734
Thanks, Grandpa.

1590
01:05:04,734 --> 01:05:06,152
See ya.

1591
01:05:35,389 --> 01:05:36,849
You may be seated.

1592
01:05:39,060 --> 01:05:40,686
Love conquers all.

1593
01:05:40,686 --> 01:05:43,731
If you love someone,
set them free.

1594
01:05:43,731 --> 01:05:46,525
Stop in the name of love.

1595
01:05:47,943 --> 01:05:52,907
And lastly, it's better
to have loved and lost

1596
01:05:52,907 --> 01:05:55,159
than to have never
loved at all.

1597
01:05:57,078 --> 01:05:59,622
Now, why are there so
many sayings about love?

1598
01:05:59,622 --> 01:06:03,209
I believe because it's
so difficult to explain.

1599
01:06:03,209 --> 01:06:06,295
And we write songs and
movies and sonnets about it.

1600
01:06:06,295 --> 01:06:08,798
Even Paul writes in his first
letters to the Corinthians.

1601
01:06:08,798 --> 01:06:10,383
Love is patient.

1602
01:06:10,383 --> 01:06:12,301
Love is kind.

1603
01:06:12,301 --> 01:06:14,345
That love is
the greatest gift of all.

1604
01:06:14,345 --> 01:06:16,472
And when you receive it,

1605
01:06:16,472 --> 01:06:18,724
you treasure it for the rest
of your life,

1606
01:06:18,724 --> 01:06:20,768
because it is what connects us
all together.

1607
01:06:20,768 --> 01:06:23,396
It's what connects us
across generations.

1608
01:06:23,396 --> 01:06:27,274
Love makes everything possible.

1609
01:06:27,608 --> 01:06:30,403
Even a last-minute
outdoor wedding in the snow

1610
01:06:30,403 --> 01:06:31,570
on Christmas Eve.

1611
01:06:34,573 --> 01:06:39,537
Max, do you take Beth to be
your lawfully wedded wife

1612
01:06:39,537 --> 01:06:43,374
in sickness and health,
forsaking all others

1613
01:06:43,374 --> 01:06:45,209
for as long as you
both shall live?

1614
01:06:45,209 --> 01:06:46,460
I do.

1615
01:06:50,172 --> 01:06:51,590
Beth.

1616
01:06:51,590 --> 01:06:54,385
Do you take Max to be your
lawfully wedded husband

1617
01:06:54,385 --> 01:06:57,888
in sickness and health,
forsaking all others

1618
01:06:57,888 --> 01:06:59,724
for as long as you
both shall live?

1619
01:07:00,391 --> 01:07:01,726
I do.

1620
01:07:04,562 --> 01:07:07,106
Now, by the power vested
in me by the state,

1621
01:07:07,106 --> 01:07:10,276
the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit
of Christmas,

1622
01:07:11,569 --> 01:07:14,280
I now pronounce you
husband and wife.

1623
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:17,783
Max, you may kiss your bride.

1624
01:07:43,434 --> 01:07:44,351
- Hey!
- Hi.

1625
01:07:44,351 --> 01:07:46,520
Just getting the turkey ready.

1626
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:48,022
A little bit less
to do tomorrow

1627
01:07:48,022 --> 01:07:49,482
when I'm getting
Christmas dinner ready.

1628
01:07:49,482 --> 01:07:53,068
Yeah, I can see that.
Uh, are you okay?

1629
01:07:53,068 --> 01:07:55,654
What? Yes.
I'm fine.

1630
01:07:55,654 --> 01:07:56,864
Are you sure?

1631
01:07:56,864 --> 01:07:58,616
I feel like if you rub
that turkey any harder,

1632
01:07:58,616 --> 01:08:01,118
all we're gonna be left
with is the wishbone.

1633
01:08:01,118 --> 01:08:03,120
So you fell asleep
on the couch?

1634
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:04,747
Big deal.

1635
01:08:04,747 --> 01:08:07,166
I fell asleep next
to a man I barely know.

1636
01:08:07,166 --> 01:08:11,754
So what. It doesn't mean
anything, does it?

1637
01:08:11,754 --> 01:08:13,714
No, of course not.

1638
01:08:14,673 --> 01:08:15,800
Should I ask the turkey?

1639
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:17,635
I feel like I might have
a different opinion.

1640
01:08:20,721 --> 01:08:22,640
I used to fall asleep
next to Greg

1641
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:24,517
when we would
watch Christmas movies.

1642
01:08:24,517 --> 01:08:25,893
Oh, Regina.

1643
01:08:25,893 --> 01:08:27,436
This house.

1644
01:08:28,229 --> 01:08:31,148
I love it, I do, but it has
so many memories

1645
01:08:31,148 --> 01:08:33,776
and I don't know
how to give that up.

1646
01:08:35,694 --> 01:08:40,241
It's why I keep the clock
on the mantel.

1647
01:08:40,241 --> 01:08:41,867
Because when it goes off,

1648
01:08:41,867 --> 01:08:44,328
it's like he's saying
Merry Christmas.

1649
01:08:46,539 --> 01:08:49,500
Regina... memories
are just a way

1650
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:52,419
of keeping the things we
love close to us, you know?

1651
01:08:52,419 --> 01:08:55,172
It's a way to make sure
we never lose them.

1652
01:08:56,757 --> 01:08:58,968
There's a lot of love
in this house.

1653
01:08:58,968 --> 01:09:00,553
I know.

1654
01:09:00,553 --> 01:09:03,556
You know, my parents talk about
Cherry Lane all the time.

1655
01:09:03,556 --> 01:09:06,267
I do too.
And I remember it.

1656
01:09:07,351 --> 01:09:11,021
The thing is, you can't
get stuck in the past.

1657
01:09:12,106 --> 01:09:16,610
Creating new memories doesn't
mean forgetting the old ones.

1658
01:09:20,197 --> 01:09:22,366
But what if I'm still
not ready?

1659
01:09:34,253 --> 01:09:35,796
Mom says dinner is ready.

1660
01:09:35,796 --> 01:09:38,799
Great. Thank you.
I'll be in in a minute.

1661
01:09:38,799 --> 01:09:41,427
Just making sure
the ground's not too frozen.

1662
01:09:41,427 --> 01:09:43,554
Okay. Don't dig the hole yet.

1663
01:09:43,554 --> 01:09:45,556
Mom and grandpa have
to be here.

1664
01:09:45,556 --> 01:09:47,933
Oh, I don't think your
grandpa's going to want

1665
01:09:47,933 --> 01:09:49,268
to be outside for this.

1666
01:09:49,268 --> 01:09:50,811
He said he would.

1667
01:09:51,312 --> 01:09:55,190
Oh, okay. Good.

1668
01:09:55,190 --> 01:09:57,401
It's really important
that everybody's here, Dad.

1669
01:09:57,401 --> 01:10:00,696
It's the Kramer family
Christmas time capsule.

1670
01:10:00,696 --> 01:10:02,072
That means all of us.

1671
01:10:02,990 --> 01:10:04,992
It's all I want
for Christmas.

1672
01:10:06,327 --> 01:10:08,913
Did your mom tell you
to say that?

1673
01:10:08,913 --> 01:10:12,833
Yeah. Okay.
I'll be in in a minute.

1674
01:10:12,833 --> 01:10:13,834
Get in there.

1675
01:10:13,834 --> 01:10:15,169
Okay.

1676
01:10:19,131 --> 01:10:20,424
But Dad...

1677
01:10:20,424 --> 01:10:23,010
Just because mom told me
to say it

1678
01:10:23,010 --> 01:10:25,512
doesn't mean
I don't mean it.

1679
01:10:34,063 --> 01:10:36,315
Well, the kids made it
out of the school.

1680
01:10:36,315 --> 01:10:37,608
That's good to hear.

1681
01:10:37,608 --> 01:10:39,777
Any clarity on the wooden
reindeer situation?

1682
01:10:39,777 --> 01:10:41,278
Yeah. It turns out that
the reindeer

1683
01:10:41,278 --> 01:10:42,780
was the Christmas present.

1684
01:10:42,780 --> 01:10:44,907
So the Whitman boy carved it
for his father in woodshop

1685
01:10:44,907 --> 01:10:47,618
and left it in his locker
and went back to get it.

1686
01:10:48,911 --> 01:10:50,704
Well, it's hard
to blame somebody

1687
01:10:50,704 --> 01:10:52,790
when the excuse
is because Christmas.

1688
01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:58,629
Well, um, I should probably
head out.

1689
01:10:58,629 --> 01:11:00,673
Oh. You're leaving?

1690
01:11:00,673 --> 01:11:03,050
Yeah. The tow truck guy
got my car up and running

1691
01:11:03,050 --> 01:11:05,135
so I can get out of
your hair.

1692
01:11:05,135 --> 01:11:07,554
Great. That's great.

1693
01:11:07,554 --> 01:11:08,514
Um...

1694
01:11:08,514 --> 01:11:09,932
Um, Hector, can you help me

1695
01:11:09,932 --> 01:11:11,558
with something in
the kitchen, please?

1696
01:11:11,558 --> 01:11:13,394
- What?
- Let's go.

1697
01:11:16,563 --> 01:11:20,234
So, uh, how much
do I owe you?

1698
01:11:21,193 --> 01:11:22,861
You don't owe me anything.

1699
01:11:22,861 --> 01:11:26,198
You fed me.
So let's call it even.

1700
01:11:26,198 --> 01:11:28,784
I'll call my buddy
and have him come out the
day after Christmas.

1701
01:11:28,784 --> 01:11:31,662
And he can figure out what's
going on with your pipes.

1702
01:11:31,662 --> 01:11:33,580
You're not coming back?

1703
01:11:34,832 --> 01:11:38,544
Um, I don't think I should.

1704
01:11:38,544 --> 01:11:40,713
I'm not a plumber, remember?

1705
01:11:40,713 --> 01:11:42,589
Mhm. Right.

1706
01:11:43,841 --> 01:11:45,592
Well thank you.

1707
01:11:47,052 --> 01:11:52,141
Um... Thank you for
a new Christmas story.

1708
01:11:52,141 --> 01:11:53,976
You're welcome.

1709
01:11:58,022 --> 01:11:59,565
Merry Christmas Regina.

1710
01:11:59,565 --> 01:12:01,108
Merry Christmas Nelson.

1711
01:12:32,389 --> 01:12:33,682
Ready to go?

1712
01:12:33,682 --> 01:12:36,935
Yeah, I think so.
Just giving her one last look.

1713
01:12:36,935 --> 01:12:38,812
Well. That's good.
Good idea.

1714
01:12:39,688 --> 01:12:41,565
This is solid.

1715
01:12:41,565 --> 01:12:43,776
Can't go wrong
with galvanized steel.

1716
01:12:45,819 --> 01:12:47,654
You know, son,

1717
01:12:47,654 --> 01:12:51,325
this is not the way I would
have done things.

1718
01:12:52,284 --> 01:12:53,494
Yeah.

1719
01:12:53,494 --> 01:12:55,371
But you did good here.

1720
01:12:56,372 --> 01:12:57,915
Good job.

1721
01:12:58,499 --> 01:13:00,125
All of this.

1722
01:13:00,501 --> 01:13:02,628
You did good, Eli.

1723
01:13:03,587 --> 01:13:05,172
Thanks, Dad.

1724
01:13:06,673 --> 01:13:08,258
It, uh...

1725
01:13:08,842 --> 01:13:13,597
It helped that I had somebody
who knew what they were doing.

1726
01:13:18,477 --> 01:13:20,104
Let there be light.

1727
01:13:20,104 --> 01:13:21,605
What do you know?

1728
01:13:22,689 --> 01:13:24,650
Hey, uh...
let's seal this up

1729
01:13:24,650 --> 01:13:26,068
and get it in the ground,
shall we?

1730
01:13:26,068 --> 01:13:27,403
Yeah.

1731
01:13:28,946 --> 01:13:34,618
Yeah, although I think there's
room for-- for one more thing.

1732
01:13:48,507 --> 01:13:49,967
Dad...

1733
01:13:53,387 --> 01:13:55,222
That's mom's clock.

1734
01:14:08,193 --> 01:14:10,154
Let me get this stuff
out of here.

1735
01:14:10,154 --> 01:14:12,072
Put that down first.

1736
01:14:42,853 --> 01:14:44,646
Hey, you guys gonna be able
to get a flight

1737
01:14:44,646 --> 01:14:45,939
to Michigan tomorrow?

1738
01:14:45,939 --> 01:14:47,733
Yeah. Talk to the airline
and we are rebooked.

1739
01:14:47,733 --> 01:14:49,526
But if they can't get
the runways clear,

1740
01:14:49,526 --> 01:14:50,736
they might cancel again.

1741
01:14:50,736 --> 01:14:52,029
No, they're not gonna cancel.

1742
01:14:53,488 --> 01:14:54,865
Well, I guess
we should head home.

1743
01:14:54,865 --> 01:14:56,366
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

1744
01:14:56,366 --> 01:14:58,702
Give your parents
a big hug from me.

1745
01:14:58,702 --> 01:15:00,037
I will.

1746
01:15:00,037 --> 01:15:01,955
Hey, do you want to just stay
with us tonight?

1747
01:15:01,955 --> 01:15:04,082
We can open presents
in the morning in PJs tomorrow.

1748
01:15:04,082 --> 01:15:05,959
Thank you, but
I think I'll stay here.

1749
01:15:05,959 --> 01:15:08,295
I need to get up early anyway,
to prep Christmas dinner.

1750
01:15:08,295 --> 01:15:11,632
Regina! Regina!
Come out here!

1751
01:15:11,632 --> 01:15:13,467
Is that Nelson?

1752
01:15:14,301 --> 01:15:16,428
What is he doing
in the backyard?

1753
01:15:16,428 --> 01:15:18,138
Well, let's go see.

1754
01:15:22,559 --> 01:15:24,186
You came back.

1755
01:15:24,186 --> 01:15:25,646
I never left.

1756
01:15:25,646 --> 01:15:27,898
Well, that's great, but why
are you digging up my yard?

1757
01:15:27,898 --> 01:15:30,192
I figured out
where your pipe broke.

1758
01:15:30,192 --> 01:15:31,360
How?

1759
01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:33,695
With a metal detector
and a good shovel.

1760
01:15:33,695 --> 01:15:36,615
You carry a metal detector
in your truck?

1761
01:15:36,615 --> 01:15:38,075
Don't you?

1762
01:15:38,075 --> 01:15:40,035
You can't imagine how many
times that's come in handy.

1763
01:15:40,035 --> 01:15:41,328
Yeah. How many?

1764
01:15:41,328 --> 01:15:43,330
Including today? One.

1765
01:15:43,330 --> 01:15:45,290
But the point is,
I solved your problem.

1766
01:15:45,290 --> 01:15:47,501
I thought you were gonna
get a plumber to do that.

1767
01:15:47,501 --> 01:15:50,045
I changed my mind.
It was a tree root.

1768
01:15:50,045 --> 01:15:51,588
And the only reason
the root hit the pipe

1769
01:15:51,588 --> 01:15:53,507
was because it couldn't
go where it wanted to.

1770
01:15:53,507 --> 01:15:54,841
Wait, what stops
the tree root?

1771
01:15:54,841 --> 01:15:57,511
A galvanized steel box.

1772
01:16:00,055 --> 01:16:02,474
That was buried up
against a rock.

1773
01:16:08,230 --> 01:16:09,773
I think we're good.

1774
01:16:09,773 --> 01:16:11,358
Okay.

1775
01:16:42,347 --> 01:16:46,018
Kramer Family Time Capsule,
1960.

1776
01:16:47,436 --> 01:16:49,104
Huh?

1777
01:16:52,733 --> 01:16:54,526
Oh, look at them.

1778
01:16:56,570 --> 01:16:59,573
Ooh! A recipe for gingerbread.

1779
01:17:01,742 --> 01:17:04,036
And a comic book.

1780
01:17:07,497 --> 01:17:08,874
And...

1781
01:17:10,584 --> 01:17:12,419
Christmas ornament.

1782
01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:18,216
Hey, there's something else
wedged down in the bottom.

1783
01:17:18,216 --> 01:17:19,885
It's big too.

1784
01:17:22,721 --> 01:17:25,140
Regina, it's another
Christmas clock.

1785
01:17:49,289 --> 01:17:50,582
Hm.

1786
01:17:51,208 --> 01:17:53,668
Merry Christmas to you too, sweetheart.

1787
01:18:01,051 --> 01:18:02,761
- Jessie.
- Hey.

1788
01:18:02,761 --> 01:18:04,721
My grandma wanted to say good
night before I walk her home.

1789
01:18:04,721 --> 01:18:06,098
It was so good to see you,
Barbara.

1790
01:18:06,098 --> 01:18:08,934
Good to see you too, dear.
Beautiful wedding.

1791
01:18:08,934 --> 01:18:10,310
Wasn't it?

1792
01:18:10,310 --> 01:18:11,770
Oh, I meant to tell you.

1793
01:18:11,770 --> 01:18:13,480
I love the book
that you recommended.

1794
01:18:13,480 --> 01:18:14,272
Oh, good.

1795
01:18:14,272 --> 01:18:15,315
What book?

1796
01:18:15,315 --> 01:18:17,192
It's called "Christmas
with Walter".

1797
01:18:17,192 --> 01:18:20,028
It was written by a guy that
used to live in this house,
Eli Kramer.

1798
01:18:20,028 --> 01:18:21,613
It's about his relationship
with his father.

1799
01:18:21,613 --> 01:18:22,948
It's just beautiful.

1800
01:18:22,948 --> 01:18:25,826
My friend Penny used
to style my hair.

1801
01:18:25,826 --> 01:18:29,496
She was Eli's wife.
We would talk and talk.

1802
01:18:29,496 --> 01:18:31,998
Did they really bury a time
capsule in the backyard?

1803
01:18:31,998 --> 01:18:35,919
Sure thing.
That was in 1960.

1804
01:18:35,919 --> 01:18:38,171
Oh, they moved away
a few years later,

1805
01:18:38,171 --> 01:18:41,591
but they left it here so the
new family could discover it

1806
01:18:41,591 --> 01:18:43,844
and find out about
their family.

1807
01:18:43,844 --> 01:18:45,178
I wonder if it's
still out there.

1808
01:18:45,178 --> 01:18:46,471
Oh. Who knows?

1809
01:18:46,471 --> 01:18:49,850
Well, I suppose we
really must get going.

1810
01:18:50,517 --> 01:18:51,893
Merry Christmas, Jessie.

1811
01:18:51,893 --> 01:18:53,770
Merry Christmas Barbara.

1812
01:18:54,896 --> 01:18:56,523
Thanks.

1813
01:19:00,527 --> 01:19:02,779
Hi.

1814
01:19:03,572 --> 01:19:06,032
I was just going
to go get some fresh air

1815
01:19:06,032 --> 01:19:07,617
- if you want to--
- I would love.

1816
01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:09,911

I do, it was our first date.

1825
01:19:47,073 --> 01:19:50,368
It wasn't a date.
It was a crime.

1826
01:19:50,368 --> 01:19:52,037
No, we weren't charged.

1827
01:19:52,037 --> 01:19:55,665
Principal Johnson only cut us a
break because it was Christmas.

1828
01:19:55,665 --> 01:19:57,334
We still got suspended, though.

1829
01:19:57,334 --> 01:19:58,502
It was totally worth it.

1830
01:19:58,502 --> 01:20:00,253
It was a wooden reindeer.

1831
01:20:00,253 --> 01:20:02,047
I needed something
for my dad.

1832
01:20:02,047 --> 01:20:04,257
I cannot get my dad
a present.

1833
01:20:05,091 --> 01:20:06,593
Also, you didn't have to
come with me.

1834
01:20:06,593 --> 01:20:07,969
You barely knew me.

1835
01:20:07,969 --> 01:20:10,138
Well, you knew me well enough
to know that I knew

1836
01:20:10,138 --> 01:20:12,432
how to sneak into
the school's theater.

1837
01:20:12,432 --> 01:20:13,725
Well, I don't care
what you say.

1838
01:20:13,725 --> 01:20:15,560
There was food.
There was candlelight.

1839
01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:17,395
We danced while
we were locked down there.

1840
01:20:17,395 --> 01:20:19,272
So it was a date.

1841
01:20:20,524 --> 01:20:22,234
There was no kiss.

1842
01:20:22,234 --> 01:20:24,402
It can't be a date
if there's no kiss.

1843
01:20:24,402 --> 01:20:26,530
I'll take care of
that later.

1844
01:20:29,115 --> 01:20:32,285
I'm glad we talked through
what happened back then.

1845
01:20:33,161 --> 01:20:34,246
Yeah.

1846
01:20:35,288 --> 01:20:36,748
Yeah. Me too.

1847
01:20:36,748 --> 01:20:38,583
We just both needed closure.

1848
01:20:38,583 --> 01:20:41,253
Yeah. Yeah, closure is good.

1849
01:20:42,128 --> 01:20:43,547
Now we can...

1850
01:20:44,923 --> 01:20:47,968
forget about the past and
just move on with our lives.

1851
01:20:52,514 --> 01:20:54,266
Although...

1852
01:20:54,266 --> 01:20:56,142
I'm listening.

1853
01:20:56,142 --> 01:20:58,436
They say those
that forget about the past

1854
01:20:58,436 --> 01:21:00,605
are doomed to repeat it.

1855
01:21:00,605 --> 01:21:02,148
Well, that's very true.

1856
01:21:02,148 --> 01:21:06,820
So we should probably both
just say what needs to be said.

1857
01:21:07,404 --> 01:21:08,822
Tim...

1858
01:21:09,656 --> 01:21:11,741
I'm done talking.

1859
01:21:12,534 --> 01:21:14,452

friend of mine will be back

1863
01:21:28,967 --> 01:21:30,468
right after Christmas.

1864
01:21:30,468 --> 01:21:32,220
All right. You know, Nelson,
you've already done so much.

1865
01:21:32,220 --> 01:21:35,640
Why don't you just come
back and fix it yourself?

1866
01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:36,850
Are you sure?

1867
01:21:36,850 --> 01:21:38,184
I'm sure.

1868
01:21:39,477 --> 01:21:42,606
Okay, well, I'll see you
in a couple of days.

1869
01:21:43,356 --> 01:21:45,400
I'll be here.
Merry Christmas.

1870
01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:50,113
Merry Christmas, Regina.

1871
01:21:50,447 --> 01:21:51,865
Nelson...

1872
01:21:53,950 --> 01:21:58,163
I'm not quite ready for
this Christmas story to end.

1873
01:21:58,496 --> 01:22:00,874
Why don't you ask me out?

1874
01:22:04,502 --> 01:22:06,713
Regina, would you like
to go out on a date?

1875
01:22:06,713 --> 01:22:08,048
I would.

1876
01:22:08,757 --> 01:22:11,593
Mm. You know, just to clarify.

1877
01:22:11,593 --> 01:22:13,845
Me coming back in a few days
to deal with your pipes.

1878
01:22:13,845 --> 01:22:15,764
That doesn't count,
because that's work.

1879
01:22:15,764 --> 01:22:16,973
Correct.

1880
01:22:16,973 --> 01:22:20,352
And technically,
you didn't pay me for today,

1881
01:22:20,352 --> 01:22:23,730
so maybe we already had
our first date.

1882
01:22:23,730 --> 01:22:25,607
Maybe we did.

1883
01:22:26,816 --> 01:22:29,361
Well, then maybe I should
kiss you good night.

1884
01:22:29,361 --> 01:22:30,987
Maybe you should.

1885
01:22:38,745 --> 01:22:40,497
Merry Christmas.

1886
01:22:40,956 --> 01:22:44,417
It is thanks to you.

1887
01:23:16,491 --> 01:23:19,035
This is a pretty great house.

1888
01:23:19,494 --> 01:23:21,788
Welcome to Cherry Lane.
