1
00:00:19,561 --> 00:00:20,854
I'm Adam Kade,
2
00:00:20,895 --> 00:00:23,440
and coming up tonight on KCYD,
3
00:00:23,481 --> 00:00:25,358
with the holiday season
in full swing,
4
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,610
we'll take you
inside local toy stores
5
00:00:27,652 --> 00:00:29,988
struggling
to keep shelves stocked
6
00:00:30,030 --> 00:00:33,324
as supply chain issues
continue to disrupt.
7
00:00:33,366 --> 00:00:36,953
As supply chain issues
continue to disrupt.
8
00:00:36,995 --> 00:00:40,290
Mom, what are
supply chain issues?
9
00:00:40,331 --> 00:00:42,208
It's when kids
are late for school.
10
00:00:43,460 --> 00:00:45,420
Mm.
11
00:00:45,462 --> 00:00:47,088
Okay, come on! Let's go!
12
00:00:52,427 --> 00:00:53,595
Maybe tomorrow
13
00:00:53,636 --> 00:00:55,346
you can wear
the sweater Grandma made you?
14
00:00:55,388 --> 00:00:58,683
News anchors wear suits
and do interviews!
15
00:00:58,725 --> 00:01:00,310
How does it feel
16
00:01:00,351 --> 00:01:02,771
to be made of millions
of unique snowflakes?
17
00:01:03,813 --> 00:01:05,607
With that nose,
18
00:01:05,648 --> 00:01:07,400
does everything
smell like carrots?
19
00:01:07,442 --> 00:01:09,652
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
20
00:01:09,694 --> 00:01:12,155
You heard it here
first, folks!
21
00:01:12,197 --> 00:01:14,657
Robbie Sullivan reporting
from the front yard.
22
00:01:14,699 --> 00:01:17,327
Robbie Sullivan needs
to be reporting to school!
23
00:01:17,368 --> 00:01:20,163
Come on.
Get a move on, mister.
24
00:01:20,205 --> 00:01:24,209
♪ I'm going home for Christmas ♪
25
00:01:24,250 --> 00:01:27,962
♪ That's where
I'm supposed to be ♪
26
00:01:28,004 --> 00:01:31,758
♪ No way I'd ever miss it ♪
27
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,636
♪ Wrapped up in family ♪
28
00:01:34,677 --> 00:01:36,304
♪ Making memories
Sharing moments ♪
29
00:01:36,346 --> 00:01:37,764
And as
Minneapolis rolls out plans
30
00:01:37,806 --> 00:01:39,307
for additional bike lanes,
31
00:01:39,349 --> 00:01:41,851
some residents are asking
Santa for a different gift,
32
00:01:41,893 --> 00:01:44,270
maintenance on
the existing paths.
33
00:01:44,312 --> 00:01:45,688
And tonight,
34
00:01:45,730 --> 00:01:47,565
we will investigate
a danger
35
00:01:47,607 --> 00:01:49,526
lurking in
a common Christmas decoration.
36
00:01:49,567 --> 00:01:50,819
Do you know
37
00:01:50,860 --> 00:01:52,403
what's hiding in your holly?
38
00:01:52,445 --> 00:01:53,905
Find out with me, Adam Ka--
39
00:01:55,281 --> 00:01:57,700
Ahh! That's better.
40
00:02:00,453 --> 00:02:02,705
Who wants to watch the news,
anyway?
41
00:02:02,747 --> 00:02:04,833
I know. Tell me about it.
42
00:02:04,874 --> 00:02:06,251
All that negativity, right?
43
00:02:06,292 --> 00:02:08,837
Like we don't have enough
to worry about in the world.
44
00:02:08,878 --> 00:02:11,005
Well, I have a front-row seat
to that Adam Kade at home
45
00:02:11,047 --> 00:02:14,300
because Robbie
wants to be a news reporter
46
00:02:14,342 --> 00:02:15,260
when he grows up.
47
00:02:15,301 --> 00:02:17,470
I mean, that is so cute!
48
00:02:17,512 --> 00:02:20,598
Well, what he's hearing him
talk about isn't,
49
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:23,726
and I don't want him to start
seeing the world that way.
50
00:02:23,768 --> 00:02:25,228
Okay, then why let him
listen to it at all, then?
51
00:02:25,270 --> 00:02:26,771
I...
52
00:02:26,813 --> 00:02:30,984
I want him to follow
what excites him, but...
53
00:02:31,025 --> 00:02:32,318
You know, maybe--
54
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,988
maybe he'll grow out
of this whole news anchor thing.
55
00:02:35,029 --> 00:02:37,031
I don't know.
56
00:02:37,073 --> 00:02:41,786
His class has a field trip
at the KCYD newsroom today...
57
00:02:41,828 --> 00:02:43,913
- Mm-hmm.
- ...and he's the one
58
00:02:43,955 --> 00:02:45,039
who suggested it
to the teacher!
59
00:02:45,081 --> 00:02:46,791
That boy.
60
00:02:48,293 --> 00:02:50,795
Okay, what are we doing?
61
00:02:58,052 --> 00:02:59,345
I'm taking a poll.
62
00:02:59,387 --> 00:03:01,514
What kind of milk
do you leave out for Santa?
63
00:03:01,556 --> 00:03:03,892
Whole, skim, or almond?
64
00:03:06,394 --> 00:03:07,478
Ms. Somerville,
65
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,439
inquiring minds want to know,
66
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,065
what are your plans
for Christmas break?
67
00:03:11,107 --> 00:03:13,109
Sleeping in!
68
00:03:13,151 --> 00:03:14,444
You heard it here first.
69
00:03:14,485 --> 00:03:16,446
Now, I know
you're excited, Robbie,
70
00:03:16,487 --> 00:03:18,198
but we don't want
to be late, do we?
71
00:03:18,239 --> 00:03:19,199
Let's go, kids!
72
00:03:24,412 --> 00:03:26,456
- All right...
- Hmm.
73
00:03:26,497 --> 00:03:28,041
Smooth as
a crystal Christmas ornament.
74
00:03:28,082 --> 00:03:29,959
You are an artist, Mindy.
75
00:03:30,001 --> 00:03:31,753
Oh, only as good
as my canvas.
76
00:03:31,794 --> 00:03:34,005
Stop!
77
00:03:34,047 --> 00:03:36,549
Oh, there he is!
78
00:03:36,591 --> 00:03:38,343
How many cups is that
for you today, Todd?
79
00:03:38,384 --> 00:03:39,761
Three.
80
00:03:39,802 --> 00:03:41,262
- Three?
- Yeah, one for every point
81
00:03:41,304 --> 00:03:42,555
we dropped
in last night's ratings.
82
00:03:42,597 --> 00:03:44,098
Hey, we'll bounce back.
83
00:03:44,140 --> 00:03:46,476
We just need bigger stories
that grab people's attention.
84
00:03:46,517 --> 00:03:47,852
Yeah, figure that's it.
85
00:03:47,894 --> 00:03:49,812
The fifth grade class
from Elk River Elementary
86
00:03:49,854 --> 00:03:50,939
are here.
87
00:03:50,980 --> 00:03:52,815
- Ah.
- Oh.
88
00:03:52,857 --> 00:03:53,650
Say, Adam--
89
00:03:53,691 --> 00:03:54,817
Yes?
90
00:03:54,859 --> 00:03:56,778
Why don't you talk to the class
with me?
91
00:03:56,819 --> 00:03:59,113
You know, help educate
the next generation?
92
00:03:59,155 --> 00:04:01,574
I educate from behind the desk.
93
00:04:01,616 --> 00:04:04,202
Aw, just interview 'em
with some softball questions,
94
00:04:04,243 --> 00:04:05,161
like who's Santa's
best reindeer?
95
00:04:05,203 --> 00:04:07,372
Dasher, obviously.
96
00:04:07,413 --> 00:04:08,873
Who picks Dasher over Rudolph?
97
00:04:08,915 --> 00:04:10,083
He's the leader of the pack...
98
00:04:10,124 --> 00:04:12,168
alert, calm, confident...
come on.
99
00:04:12,210 --> 00:04:14,253
Adam has a promo recording
in five, so...
100
00:04:14,295 --> 00:04:15,338
Yeah. See?
101
00:04:15,380 --> 00:04:17,048
Thank you, Jaclyn.
102
00:04:17,090 --> 00:04:18,967
Can't talk to the kids anyway.
103
00:04:19,008 --> 00:04:19,884
Fine, you Grinch.
104
00:04:19,926 --> 00:04:21,469
Mm. Love you too.
105
00:04:21,511 --> 00:04:25,264
Break out the hand sanitizer,
the kids are here!
106
00:04:31,604 --> 00:04:34,524
Welcome to KCYD!
107
00:04:34,565 --> 00:04:37,110
We're so happy
you're visiting us here today.
108
00:04:37,151 --> 00:04:38,695
- What do we say, class?
- Thanks.
109
00:04:38,736 --> 00:04:40,113
Thank you very much!
110
00:04:40,154 --> 00:04:41,322
Yeah.
111
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:43,700
Uh, so, our station
began broadcasting
112
00:04:43,741 --> 00:04:46,661
all the way back in 1949,
113
00:04:46,703 --> 00:04:48,079
and every day is different.
114
00:04:48,121 --> 00:04:49,580
Hey, that's what makes it fun!
115
00:04:49,622 --> 00:04:51,541
It's Adam Kade!
116
00:04:51,582 --> 00:04:53,293
- What?
- Who's Adam Kade?
117
00:04:53,334 --> 00:04:55,628
The news anchor.
118
00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:56,963
That's right, yeah,
119
00:04:57,005 --> 00:04:59,090
Adam's been with the station
for seven years now.
120
00:04:59,132 --> 00:05:00,883
You know, lots of people think
121
00:05:00,925 --> 00:05:04,470
that anchors just read words
off a teleprompter,
122
00:05:04,512 --> 00:05:06,764
but that couldn't be further
from the truth.
123
00:05:06,806 --> 00:05:08,057
In fact, can anyone here
124
00:05:08,099 --> 00:05:10,184
tell me what else
they have to be good at?
125
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:14,397
Yeah?
126
00:05:14,439 --> 00:05:17,317
They have to read fast,
know current events,
127
00:05:17,358 --> 00:05:20,028
and be good at improvising
during live broadcasts.
128
00:05:20,069 --> 00:05:21,988
Wow. Someone's been studying!
129
00:05:22,030 --> 00:05:24,073
And you're all in luck,
130
00:05:24,115 --> 00:05:26,826
because Adam's about to record
a promo for a tonight's show.
131
00:05:28,369 --> 00:05:30,204
Mm.
132
00:05:30,246 --> 00:05:31,873
Ahem.
133
00:05:31,914 --> 00:05:33,708
You know, why don't we go watch
from the control room?
134
00:05:33,750 --> 00:05:35,877
You know, who knows,
maybe one day,
135
00:05:35,918 --> 00:05:39,047
one of you'll be, uh,
sitting in the anchor's chair.
136
00:05:39,088 --> 00:05:40,256
Tonight,
137
00:05:40,298 --> 00:05:42,383
we'll look into
how one neighborhood
138
00:05:42,425 --> 00:05:43,593
is using technology
139
00:05:43,634 --> 00:05:46,137
to stave off
Christmas porch pirates.
140
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:47,597
And speaking of technology,
141
00:05:47,638 --> 00:05:51,434
a city comptroller
finds himself in hot water
142
00:05:51,476 --> 00:05:53,811
after a series of holiday
social media posts
143
00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:56,064
have--
144
00:05:57,815 --> 00:06:00,151
Do you always wear
so much makeup?
145
00:06:00,193 --> 00:06:03,863
It's for the bright lights
and HD cameras.
146
00:06:03,905 --> 00:06:05,948
I'm sorry. Who are you?
147
00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:06,866
I'm Robbie Sullivan.
148
00:06:06,908 --> 00:06:08,409
Robbie Sullivan.
149
00:06:08,451 --> 00:06:11,871
I think you might have gotten
lost from your field trip.
150
00:06:11,913 --> 00:06:15,124
These chairs aren't very comfy.
151
00:06:15,166 --> 00:06:16,459
Is that why you never smile?
152
00:06:19,295 --> 00:06:21,255
- Where is his teacher?
153
00:06:21,297 --> 00:06:23,633
I'm so sorry.
I-I'll go get Robbie.
154
00:06:23,674 --> 00:06:26,511
No, no, no, no, no.
Let him, uh... let him stay.
155
00:06:26,552 --> 00:06:27,845
Okay, listen, kid--
156
00:06:27,887 --> 00:06:28,763
Robbie Sullivan.
157
00:06:28,805 --> 00:06:30,181
"Robbie Sullivan."
158
00:06:30,223 --> 00:06:32,767
It is not an anchor's job
to smile.
159
00:06:32,809 --> 00:06:35,186
It's to deliver facts
to keep the viewers informed.
160
00:06:35,228 --> 00:06:36,437
Is it also your job
161
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:38,439
to make people
feel bad about the world?
162
00:06:38,481 --> 00:06:40,358
What?
163
00:06:40,399 --> 00:06:41,776
That's what my mom says,
164
00:06:41,818 --> 00:06:44,028
that watching you makes her
feel bad about the world.
165
00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:45,029
- I...
- She turns off the TV
166
00:06:45,071 --> 00:06:46,823
whenever you come on.
167
00:06:46,864 --> 00:06:49,700
Even at her salon,
they change the channel.
168
00:06:49,742 --> 00:06:51,327
Really? Um...
169
00:06:51,369 --> 00:06:53,663
Why don't you report
on happier things?
170
00:06:53,704 --> 00:06:55,248
Ooh, ooh!
171
00:06:55,289 --> 00:06:58,084
Now, can you ask me a question?
Like you're interviewing me?
172
00:06:58,126 --> 00:07:01,671
Yeah, um...
173
00:07:01,712 --> 00:07:04,298
who's Santa's best reindeer?
174
00:07:07,427 --> 00:07:08,427
Hey, Skylar.
175
00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:10,805
First moment of down time
all day.
176
00:07:10,847 --> 00:07:12,682
Well, everyone wants
to turn heads
177
00:07:12,723 --> 00:07:13,599
during the holiday parties.
178
00:07:13,641 --> 00:07:15,017
Any lunch plans?
179
00:07:15,059 --> 00:07:16,853
Jack's taking me to lunch.
Third date.
180
00:07:16,894 --> 00:07:18,980
Ooh! Sounds promising.
181
00:07:19,021 --> 00:07:20,356
You should try it sometime.
182
00:07:20,398 --> 00:07:22,400
What, dates?
183
00:07:22,442 --> 00:07:23,985
Tried that
after Cal and I got divorced.
184
00:07:24,026 --> 00:07:24,944
No, thanks.
185
00:07:24,986 --> 00:07:26,779
Okay, the chair.
186
00:07:26,821 --> 00:07:28,489
You can't be serious.
187
00:07:28,531 --> 00:07:29,824
It gets clients to open up.
188
00:07:29,866 --> 00:07:31,117
Let it work its magic for you.
189
00:07:31,159 --> 00:07:32,535
Come on.
190
00:07:35,163 --> 00:07:38,791
What is so wrong with
going on a date here and there?
191
00:07:38,833 --> 00:07:41,377
I don't have the time.
192
00:07:41,419 --> 00:07:43,629
My days are a treadmill.
I can't step off.
193
00:07:43,671 --> 00:07:46,424
My work, running errands,
194
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:48,468
making dinner...
195
00:07:48,509 --> 00:07:51,721
If I get a moment to myself
before midnight, I...
196
00:07:51,762 --> 00:07:53,055
I mean, it's a miracle.
197
00:07:53,097 --> 00:07:54,432
And on top of that,
198
00:07:54,473 --> 00:07:57,894
I have to make sure
Christmas is magical for Robbie.
199
00:07:57,935 --> 00:07:59,896
You're like Supermom.
200
00:07:59,937 --> 00:08:01,647
How can I make room
for someone else
201
00:08:01,689 --> 00:08:04,150
when I don't even have
enough energy for myself
202
00:08:04,192 --> 00:08:06,194
at the end of the day.
203
00:08:06,235 --> 00:08:09,530
By trusting someone enough
to help you with all that.
204
00:08:10,865 --> 00:08:14,410
I trusted Cal
when he promised me the moon,
205
00:08:14,452 --> 00:08:16,746
and at the end of the day,
he didn't deliver.
206
00:08:18,581 --> 00:08:20,917
You're telling me
you wouldn't change your tune
207
00:08:20,958 --> 00:08:22,251
if someone new showed up,
208
00:08:22,293 --> 00:08:24,962
maybe someone right?
209
00:08:25,004 --> 00:08:27,548
No time for love-life advice.
210
00:08:27,590 --> 00:08:30,509
I am off to pick up supplies
211
00:08:30,551 --> 00:08:32,428
to make popcorn garlands
with Robbie later.
212
00:08:32,470 --> 00:08:34,263
I can pick up
the garland supplies for you.
213
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:35,598
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I will--
214
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,099
- I will make it work.
- You sure?
215
00:08:37,141 --> 00:08:38,851
Yes, yes. I got it.
216
00:08:38,893 --> 00:08:40,978
Okay.
217
00:08:55,534 --> 00:08:57,203
Rough interview today?
218
00:08:57,245 --> 00:08:59,872
Uh... no.
219
00:08:59,914 --> 00:09:01,874
Um...
220
00:09:01,916 --> 00:09:03,668
some smart-aleck kid told me
221
00:09:03,709 --> 00:09:05,503
I make his mom
feel badly about the world.
222
00:09:05,544 --> 00:09:07,296
His mom,
223
00:09:07,338 --> 00:09:08,756
and apparently everyone
at her work,
224
00:09:08,798 --> 00:09:10,883
turns off the news
when I come on.
225
00:09:10,925 --> 00:09:13,678
Facts are cold and hard, Adam.
That is not new.
226
00:09:13,719 --> 00:09:15,638
So what's got you so rattled?
227
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:18,641
I'm not really sure.
228
00:09:18,683 --> 00:09:21,269
How did you deal
with people tuning you out
229
00:09:21,310 --> 00:09:22,770
when you were on the desk?
230
00:09:22,812 --> 00:09:25,106
Well, that was
a different time, then.
231
00:09:25,147 --> 00:09:27,400
I mean, viewers weren't
as distracted,
232
00:09:27,441 --> 00:09:29,527
and by the time
things did start to change,
233
00:09:29,568 --> 00:09:31,654
I'd already moved into teaching.
234
00:09:31,696 --> 00:09:33,739
But don't people
want to be informed?
235
00:09:33,781 --> 00:09:34,949
Huh.
236
00:09:34,991 --> 00:09:37,368
I feel like
I'm your professor again,
237
00:09:37,410 --> 00:09:39,328
fielding your questions
in a lecture hall,
238
00:09:39,370 --> 00:09:40,705
but listen,
239
00:09:40,746 --> 00:09:42,957
I did not bring you here
to reminisce about the past.
240
00:09:42,999 --> 00:09:44,166
I want to talk
about your future.
241
00:09:44,208 --> 00:09:46,586
So, word on the street...
242
00:09:46,627 --> 00:09:49,547
is Paul Rada is retiring.
243
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:50,756
From WQM Chicago?
244
00:09:50,798 --> 00:09:52,633
He's a legend!
245
00:09:52,675 --> 00:09:54,010
A legend who's about to create
246
00:09:54,051 --> 00:09:55,553
a job opening
in a top-10 market.
247
00:09:55,595 --> 00:09:57,596
Top three!
248
00:09:57,638 --> 00:09:58,889
I think you have it in you.
249
00:10:00,641 --> 00:10:04,645
National stories,
in-depth reporting...
250
00:10:04,687 --> 00:10:06,564
this is the brass ring
I've always dreamed about.
251
00:10:06,605 --> 00:10:08,149
- Mm-hmm.
- You know,
252
00:10:08,190 --> 00:10:10,443
I met the head of the station
at an event last year.
253
00:10:10,484 --> 00:10:11,944
- Nathan Selig.
- Yes.
254
00:10:11,986 --> 00:10:13,571
I'm gonna do my best
to try and reconnect you.
255
00:10:13,613 --> 00:10:16,115
Now, they're gonna be looking
256
00:10:16,157 --> 00:10:19,201
for someone who is not
just a strong anchor.
257
00:10:19,243 --> 00:10:20,369
They also want somebody
258
00:10:20,411 --> 00:10:21,704
who is going to reflect well
on the city.
259
00:10:24,665 --> 00:10:27,543
Well, I can't think of anyone
with a better reflection.
260
00:10:27,585 --> 00:10:30,171
Oh... please.
Easy there, Ted Baxter.
261
00:10:30,212 --> 00:10:31,756
Honestly.
262
00:10:31,797 --> 00:10:33,591
I'm just saying.
263
00:10:38,512 --> 00:10:39,889
It was so cool!
264
00:10:39,930 --> 00:10:41,724
We got to see the set,
265
00:10:41,766 --> 00:10:43,768
and I even sat
in the anchor chair
266
00:10:43,809 --> 00:10:45,644
and talked to Adam Kade.
267
00:10:45,686 --> 00:10:47,772
What did you tell him?
268
00:10:47,813 --> 00:10:50,316
That you turn off the news
when he's on.
269
00:10:52,193 --> 00:10:55,279
Well, if he saw the world
the way you do,
270
00:10:55,321 --> 00:10:57,073
I'd keep it on.
271
00:10:57,114 --> 00:10:59,617
You'd be
the best news anchor in TV.
272
00:11:00,701 --> 00:11:02,036
You think so?
273
00:11:02,078 --> 00:11:04,622
I could really be a news anchor
one day?
274
00:11:04,663 --> 00:11:06,457
I do.
275
00:11:06,499 --> 00:11:09,752
You can teach
Adam Kade a thing or two.
276
00:11:09,794 --> 00:11:11,837
Sometimes...
277
00:11:11,879 --> 00:11:14,090
you just have to believe
278
00:11:14,131 --> 00:11:16,384
it'll all come through
in the end,
279
00:11:16,425 --> 00:11:18,761
even if we don't know
exactly how.
280
00:11:18,803 --> 00:11:21,972
It's called "having faith."
281
00:11:23,849 --> 00:11:25,184
Yes. All right.
282
00:11:25,226 --> 00:11:27,019
How about we finish up
these garlands?
283
00:11:27,061 --> 00:11:28,312
Okay.
284
00:11:30,523 --> 00:11:31,774
Oh!
285
00:11:57,925 --> 00:11:59,385
New hobby?
286
00:11:59,427 --> 00:12:01,137
Um... no.
287
00:12:01,178 --> 00:12:02,888
That-that kid
from the field trip
288
00:12:02,930 --> 00:12:04,390
must have left it behind.
289
00:12:04,432 --> 00:12:06,600
"If found, please return
to Robbie Sullivan,
290
00:12:06,642 --> 00:12:07,893
10 Joslin Street.
291
00:12:07,935 --> 00:12:09,019
Reward offered."
292
00:12:09,061 --> 00:12:11,856
The kid with a suit.
293
00:12:11,897 --> 00:12:13,441
Look, why don't you take him
under your wing?
294
00:12:13,482 --> 00:12:15,860
You know,
like as a holiday intern?
295
00:12:15,901 --> 00:12:17,528
What? Why?
296
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:20,197
Because that's
how I got started.
297
00:12:20,239 --> 00:12:22,158
Then why don't you take him on
as your intern?
298
00:12:22,199 --> 00:12:23,743
Nah, you see,
he wants to be an anchor.
299
00:12:23,784 --> 00:12:25,870
Come on, you can make
his dreams come true.
300
00:12:25,911 --> 00:12:26,871
Where's your Christmas heart?
301
00:12:26,912 --> 00:12:28,122
Have I ever told you
302
00:12:28,164 --> 00:12:30,040
that Christmas is my
least favorite holiday?
303
00:12:30,082 --> 00:12:31,375
Uh, yeah, every time
you offer to work
304
00:12:31,417 --> 00:12:32,460
- during said holiday.
- Yeah.
305
00:12:32,501 --> 00:12:34,044
And don't forget, you owe me.
306
00:12:34,086 --> 00:12:36,005
I scored you
tickets to the Eras Tour.
307
00:12:36,046 --> 00:12:37,923
Firstly,
that was a major news event,
308
00:12:37,965 --> 00:12:40,217
so it was in
my professional interest to go,
309
00:12:40,259 --> 00:12:42,011
and secondly,
I took your twins.
310
00:12:42,052 --> 00:12:44,346
I could barely hear Taylor
over their screaming.
311
00:12:44,388 --> 00:12:45,431
Yeah, well,
count yourself lucky.
312
00:12:45,473 --> 00:12:46,474
Why?
313
00:12:46,515 --> 00:12:47,600
They just started
violin lessons.
314
00:12:47,641 --> 00:12:49,769
Ooh.
315
00:12:49,810 --> 00:12:50,895
Hey, look, just-just...
316
00:12:50,936 --> 00:12:53,439
you know, like,
show Robbie the ropes
317
00:12:53,481 --> 00:12:55,524
for a few hours after school
this week...
318
00:12:55,566 --> 00:12:57,109
a little more mensch,
less Grinch.
319
00:12:57,151 --> 00:12:58,986
- Fine.
- Great.
320
00:12:59,028 --> 00:13:00,696
You can deliver the news
in person.
321
00:13:00,738 --> 00:13:02,156
In person?
322
00:13:02,198 --> 00:13:04,450
I'm guessing you don't have
a prior social engagement,
323
00:13:04,492 --> 00:13:06,285
unless you've decided to change
your entire personality.
324
00:13:06,327 --> 00:13:07,703
Mm.
325
00:13:07,745 --> 00:13:08,829
'Tis the season, Adam!
326
00:13:08,871 --> 00:13:11,081
And, hey, I mean,
there's a reward.
327
00:13:11,832 --> 00:13:13,292
- Come on.
- Good man.
328
00:13:35,523 --> 00:13:36,982
- Oh, hi!
- Hi.
329
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:39,318
Adam Kade?
330
00:13:40,528 --> 00:13:41,529
Why are you...
331
00:13:41,570 --> 00:13:43,489
I'm here to collect the reward.
332
00:13:43,531 --> 00:13:45,282
You must be Robbie's mom.
333
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:47,910
Is your very enthusiastic son
home?
334
00:13:47,952 --> 00:13:49,995
I think he might be
looking for this.
335
00:13:50,037 --> 00:13:51,580
Adam Kade is at my house?
336
00:13:51,622 --> 00:13:53,541
Adam Kade
is at my house!
337
00:13:53,582 --> 00:13:56,669
Your very, very
enthusiastic son.
338
00:13:56,710 --> 00:13:58,587
Yes, he is,
339
00:13:58,629 --> 00:14:02,800
and, uh, yes, I am Lucy,
Robbie's mom.
340
00:14:02,841 --> 00:14:05,427
Very nice to meet you,
Lucy, Robbie's mom.
341
00:14:05,469 --> 00:14:07,346
Um, thank you so much for this.
342
00:14:07,388 --> 00:14:10,432
I'm actually also here
to see if Robbie...
343
00:14:10,474 --> 00:14:12,643
wants to follow me around
at work for a week.
344
00:14:12,685 --> 00:14:13,727
What?!
345
00:14:13,769 --> 00:14:15,187
What?
346
00:14:15,229 --> 00:14:16,647
The station wants
to offer Robbie a chance
347
00:14:16,689 --> 00:14:18,190
to see how the newsroom works,
348
00:14:18,232 --> 00:14:20,317
just a few hours after school--
349
00:14:20,359 --> 00:14:22,194
for a week.
350
00:14:22,236 --> 00:14:24,196
Oh, that's-that's
very generous...
351
00:14:25,322 --> 00:14:27,408
...but, um,
I need to think about it.
352
00:14:27,449 --> 00:14:29,785
Your son wants
to be a news anchor.
353
00:14:29,827 --> 00:14:31,996
We're offering him
a peek behind the curtain.
354
00:14:32,037 --> 00:14:33,747
Why the hesitation?
355
00:14:33,789 --> 00:14:36,166
Can you excuse me for a second?
356
00:14:39,420 --> 00:14:42,548
Uh... if you must know,
357
00:14:42,590 --> 00:14:43,716
it is a curtain
358
00:14:43,757 --> 00:14:47,511
that I am unsure
I want him looking behind.
359
00:14:47,553 --> 00:14:49,805
Is this because
watching my reports
360
00:14:49,847 --> 00:14:51,390
make you feel bad
about the world?
361
00:14:51,432 --> 00:14:52,766
He told you that?
362
00:14:54,268 --> 00:14:55,686
Oh! I'm sorry.
363
00:14:55,728 --> 00:14:58,272
The holidays are a time crunch,
364
00:14:58,314 --> 00:15:00,316
and, you know,
I have a lot on my plate.
365
00:15:00,357 --> 00:15:04,320
You're right. This probably
wouldn't have worked out anyway.
366
00:15:04,361 --> 00:15:06,405
All right, well,
it was nice to meet you, Lucy.
367
00:15:06,447 --> 00:15:07,907
You have a nice Christmas.
368
00:15:07,948 --> 00:15:09,325
- You too.
- All right. Thank you.
369
00:15:09,366 --> 00:15:11,744
Wait! Mom, I want to do it!
370
00:15:11,785 --> 00:15:13,871
Robbie,
371
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:16,332
I already have so many holiday
activities planned for us.
372
00:15:16,373 --> 00:15:19,418
Yeah, buddy.
Maybe it's for the best.
373
00:15:19,460 --> 00:15:22,922
You asked me
what I wanted for Christmas.
374
00:15:25,090 --> 00:15:27,051
Okay.
375
00:15:27,092 --> 00:15:28,636
It's beginning
to look a lot
376
00:15:28,677 --> 00:15:30,346
like Christmas with Adam Kade!
377
00:15:30,387 --> 00:15:32,306
Uh, this won't be
all fun and games.
378
00:15:32,348 --> 00:15:33,557
You're there to learn.
379
00:15:33,599 --> 00:15:34,892
So are you.
380
00:15:34,933 --> 00:15:36,644
Excuse me?
381
00:15:36,685 --> 00:15:37,978
My mom said I could
382
00:15:38,020 --> 00:15:40,189
teach you a thing or two
about being a news anchor.
383
00:15:40,230 --> 00:15:41,941
- Robbie!
- Oh, she did, did she?
384
00:15:41,982 --> 00:15:43,525
She might have...
385
00:15:45,527 --> 00:15:47,655
...but we-we don't have
to tell Adam everything I say.
386
00:15:47,696 --> 00:15:49,657
Why? What else did she say?
387
00:15:49,698 --> 00:15:51,450
- She also thinks that--
- Okay!
388
00:15:52,951 --> 00:15:54,620
Say "thank you" to Adam!
389
00:15:54,662 --> 00:15:55,996
It's time to go.
390
00:15:56,038 --> 00:15:58,499
But what else did she say?
391
00:15:58,540 --> 00:16:00,709
She said,
"Merry Christmas, Mr. Kade."
392
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:07,633
Hello!
393
00:16:07,675 --> 00:16:08,884
Hi.
394
00:16:08,926 --> 00:16:11,553
I'm Robbie Sullivan,
anchor in training.
395
00:16:11,595 --> 00:16:13,013
Cool Christmas sweater.
396
00:16:13,055 --> 00:16:14,765
Are you always so chipper?
397
00:16:14,807 --> 00:16:15,891
I learned in school
398
00:16:15,933 --> 00:16:17,810
that a smile
is the universal greeting.
399
00:16:17,851 --> 00:16:19,395
Try it.
400
00:16:19,436 --> 00:16:22,022
You told me
that I never smile, so--
401
00:16:22,064 --> 00:16:25,150
so... now I have
a reputation to uphold.
402
00:16:26,568 --> 00:16:27,778
What's in your ear?
403
00:16:27,820 --> 00:16:29,279
That's my earpiece.
404
00:16:29,321 --> 00:16:32,866
That's how the control room
talks to me when I'm on air.
405
00:16:32,908 --> 00:16:35,703
Do they let you know
when you talk for too long?
406
00:16:35,744 --> 00:16:37,329
I never talk for too long,
407
00:16:37,371 --> 00:16:40,916
but if I did, which I don't,
408
00:16:40,958 --> 00:16:43,127
they would tell me
in my earpiece.
409
00:16:43,168 --> 00:16:45,462
- Can I try?
- No.
410
00:16:45,504 --> 00:16:47,256
So, this microphone here,
411
00:16:47,297 --> 00:16:49,133
that connects
to a talkback system
412
00:16:49,174 --> 00:16:50,551
that goes to the I.F.B.,
413
00:16:50,592 --> 00:16:52,845
which is the earpiece
in Adam's ear.
414
00:16:52,886 --> 00:16:55,014
Say something.
415
00:16:55,055 --> 00:16:56,890
How about...
416
00:16:56,932 --> 00:16:59,768
locals are concerned
after reports
417
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:01,395
of a highly unusual boy
418
00:17:01,437 --> 00:17:03,731
roaming
a professional newsroom?
419
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,191
Try it with a smile.
420
00:17:06,233 --> 00:17:08,027
Remember--
universal greeting.
421
00:17:08,068 --> 00:17:09,737
Thank you.
422
00:17:09,778 --> 00:17:11,321
He's right, you know.
423
00:17:11,363 --> 00:17:13,115
Remind me what time
your mom's picking you up?
424
00:17:13,157 --> 00:17:15,409
She's here now.
425
00:17:15,451 --> 00:17:17,161
- Mom...
- Hi.
426
00:17:17,202 --> 00:17:19,788
it's too early to pick me up.
427
00:17:19,830 --> 00:17:21,123
I'm just here to watch
part of your first day.
428
00:17:22,833 --> 00:17:25,169
Say, Adam... how do you feel
429
00:17:25,210 --> 00:17:28,338
about giving up the chair
for a minute?
430
00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:32,843
No.
431
00:17:34,261 --> 00:17:35,971
No way!
432
00:17:36,013 --> 00:17:38,557
Okay, boss man,
focus up.
433
00:17:38,599 --> 00:17:40,434
In three...
434
00:17:40,476 --> 00:17:42,019
two...
435
00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:43,562
one...
436
00:17:43,604 --> 00:17:44,813
action.
437
00:17:50,736 --> 00:17:52,613
I...
438
00:17:54,323 --> 00:17:55,699
I don't know what to say.
439
00:17:55,741 --> 00:17:57,951
"In weather."
In weather.
440
00:17:59,453 --> 00:18:01,413
In weather...
441
00:18:01,455 --> 00:18:03,707
it will be cold.
442
00:18:03,749 --> 00:18:04,917
Yeah, very cold!
443
00:18:04,958 --> 00:18:06,543
Okay.
444
00:18:06,585 --> 00:18:07,795
Uh, nice one.
445
00:18:07,836 --> 00:18:09,880
Now, "in government."
446
00:18:09,922 --> 00:18:13,008
In government,
things are really boring.
447
00:18:15,135 --> 00:18:16,386
You're a natural.
448
00:18:16,428 --> 00:18:17,846
Give us the business report.
449
00:18:17,888 --> 00:18:19,640
In business,
450
00:18:19,681 --> 00:18:21,975
Christmas tree sales
are up this year,
451
00:18:22,017 --> 00:18:23,435
which is a clear sign
452
00:18:23,477 --> 00:18:24,853
a lot of people
453
00:18:24,895 --> 00:18:26,522
are buying Christmas trees
for Christmas.
454
00:18:26,563 --> 00:18:28,774
Great job. Now take us home.
455
00:18:28,816 --> 00:18:31,401
And that's the news
from KCYD Studios.
456
00:18:31,443 --> 00:18:34,279
This has been
Robbie Sullivan reporting.
457
00:18:34,321 --> 00:18:37,157
Have a Merry Christmas
and good night.
458
00:18:37,199 --> 00:18:38,617
And... we are out!
459
00:18:38,659 --> 00:18:40,577
Whoo!
460
00:18:44,748 --> 00:18:46,041
Now where do we go next?
461
00:18:46,083 --> 00:18:48,418
Oh, boy.
462
00:18:48,460 --> 00:18:49,962
Another cookie, or...?
463
00:18:50,003 --> 00:18:50,796
Nah, I'm okay.
464
00:18:50,838 --> 00:18:52,131
You drink coffee?
465
00:18:52,172 --> 00:18:53,257
Not yet.
466
00:18:53,298 --> 00:18:54,591
"Not yet." Right, got it. Um...
467
00:18:54,633 --> 00:18:55,801
Hey!
468
00:18:55,843 --> 00:18:58,720
Oh, did you enjoy
your first day, sweetie?
469
00:18:58,762 --> 00:19:00,848
It was amazing!
470
00:19:00,889 --> 00:19:02,808
And how was your first day?
471
00:19:02,850 --> 00:19:05,477
Um... it was...
472
00:19:05,519 --> 00:19:06,895
eventful.
473
00:19:06,937 --> 00:19:09,231
Oh? I'll venture to guess
you don't have kids?
474
00:19:09,273 --> 00:19:11,066
Nope. But I'm starting to see
475
00:19:11,108 --> 00:19:12,609
why people say
it takes a village.
476
00:19:12,651 --> 00:19:14,820
You're looking at the village.
477
00:19:14,862 --> 00:19:15,821
- Ah.
- Come on.
478
00:19:15,863 --> 00:19:17,155
- All right!
- See you tomorrow.
479
00:19:17,197 --> 00:19:18,657
- See you tomorrow.
- See you tomorrow, Adam...
480
00:19:18,699 --> 00:19:20,033
and the day after that,
481
00:19:20,075 --> 00:19:22,286
and the day after that,
and the day after that.
482
00:19:22,327 --> 00:19:23,579
Great!
483
00:19:23,620 --> 00:19:26,498
Great.
484
00:19:26,540 --> 00:19:28,417

This has been Adam Kade
and Robbie Sullivan reporting.
500
00:20:23,889 --> 00:20:26,725
Have a Merry Christmas
and good night!
501
00:20:29,144 --> 00:20:31,146
Great job, Robbie.
502
00:20:31,188 --> 00:20:33,231
- You really are a natural.
- Thanks.
503
00:20:33,273 --> 00:20:35,525
- Can I?
- Yeah, yeah.
504
00:20:42,616 --> 00:20:43,909
How's my favorite student?
505
00:20:43,951 --> 00:20:45,953
Hoping you have
some good news for me.
506
00:20:45,994 --> 00:20:47,204
Oh, you're in luck.
507
00:20:47,246 --> 00:20:49,164
I just spoke with Nathan Selig,
508
00:20:49,206 --> 00:20:50,374
the GM in Chicago,
509
00:20:50,415 --> 00:20:52,584
and he's expecting your call.
510
00:20:52,626 --> 00:20:53,835
Thanks for this.
511
00:20:53,877 --> 00:20:57,005
All my years of
dreaming of a job like this
512
00:20:57,047 --> 00:20:58,590
might finally come true.
513
00:20:58,632 --> 00:20:59,967
I'm ready for it.
514
00:21:00,008 --> 00:21:01,551
You sound less rattled.
515
00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:04,054
That means the kid must have
gotten out of your head?
516
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:07,933
Actually,
uh, he's my intern now.
517
00:21:07,975 --> 00:21:09,434
Long story,
518
00:21:09,476 --> 00:21:13,313
but all he wants is to report
on sunshine and rainbows.
519
00:21:13,355 --> 00:21:15,232
All right, well, you know,
520
00:21:15,273 --> 00:21:17,526
we could all use
a little levity these days.
521
00:21:17,567 --> 00:21:18,902
How long is he at the station?
522
00:21:18,944 --> 00:21:20,195
Tomorrow's his last day.
523
00:21:20,237 --> 00:21:22,239
Ooh, you must be relieved.
524
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,324
Uh...
525
00:21:24,366 --> 00:21:25,909
he was just starting
to grow on me.
526
00:21:25,951 --> 00:21:28,287
Who are you,
and where is Adam Kade?
527
00:21:28,328 --> 00:21:29,496
Right.
528
00:21:29,538 --> 00:21:30,914
I just texted you
Nathan's contact...
529
00:21:30,956 --> 00:21:32,249
Great.
530
00:21:32,290 --> 00:21:33,834
...but I want you
to call him as soon as you can,
531
00:21:33,875 --> 00:21:36,169
because everybody in America
is going to want this job
532
00:21:36,211 --> 00:21:37,170
as soon as the word gets out.
533
00:21:37,212 --> 00:21:38,797
Thanks for this, Jill.
534
00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:41,925
Aw. You earned it.
Good luck.
535
00:21:41,967 --> 00:21:43,635
Bye.
536
00:21:53,228 --> 00:21:54,813
This is Nathan.
Leave a message.
537
00:21:55,772 --> 00:21:56,857
Nathan, hi.
538
00:21:56,898 --> 00:22:00,110
This is Adam Kade
with KCYD Minneapolis.
539
00:22:00,152 --> 00:22:03,488
A turtle dove told me
you have a job opening.
540
00:22:03,530 --> 00:22:05,240
I would love
to throw my hat in the ring.
541
00:22:05,282 --> 00:22:06,908
Give me a call
when you get a chance.
542
00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:09,494
I'd love to hear
your thoughts.
543
00:22:09,536 --> 00:22:10,787
Thanks.
544
00:22:14,416 --> 00:22:16,793
Hey, Adam!
What are we doing today?
545
00:22:16,835 --> 00:22:20,088
My mom said I have to be done
by 5:00 p.m. sharp.
546
00:22:20,130 --> 00:22:22,340
Okay, well...
547
00:22:22,382 --> 00:22:25,552
today, I'll show you
the assignment desk,
548
00:22:25,594 --> 00:22:27,846
and then we've got a meeting
to discuss the rundown,
549
00:22:27,888 --> 00:22:29,848
where we pick the stories
for that night's broadcast.
550
00:22:29,890 --> 00:22:31,099
Sweet!
551
00:22:31,141 --> 00:22:32,142
Speaking of sweet...
552
00:22:33,310 --> 00:22:35,228
Since it's your last day...
553
00:22:35,270 --> 00:22:36,355
let's make it a sweet one.
554
00:22:36,396 --> 00:22:39,149
This is amazing!
555
00:22:45,822 --> 00:22:48,575
So, that was your
first editorial meeting.
556
00:22:48,617 --> 00:22:50,327
What'd you think
about the rundown?
557
00:22:50,368 --> 00:22:52,412
None of those stories
were very happy.
558
00:22:52,454 --> 00:22:54,206
Happy?
559
00:22:54,247 --> 00:22:56,541
Unemployment, bad roads...
560
00:22:56,583 --> 00:22:58,376
budget problems
at City Hall?
561
00:22:58,418 --> 00:22:59,795
Those are important stories,
562
00:22:59,836 --> 00:23:02,047
and important stories
aren't always happy ones.
563
00:23:02,089 --> 00:23:04,299
But can't happy stories
be important too?
564
00:23:04,341 --> 00:23:05,884
Well...
565
00:23:05,926 --> 00:23:08,261
Like the charity my mom and I
are volunteering at tomorrow.
566
00:23:08,303 --> 00:23:09,513
It's called Angel Gifts.
567
00:23:09,554 --> 00:23:11,640
They buy presents
for kids in need.
568
00:23:11,681 --> 00:23:13,767
Okay, well,
that sounds very nice,
569
00:23:13,809 --> 00:23:15,977
but I reported
on the story last week.
570
00:23:16,019 --> 00:23:17,979
But you didn't even mention
571
00:23:18,021 --> 00:23:21,233
the people who started it
were the volunteers.
572
00:23:21,274 --> 00:23:23,026
That's called
a human-interest story,
573
00:23:23,068 --> 00:23:24,069
and those are small.
574
00:23:24,111 --> 00:23:25,237
What's wrong with small?
575
00:23:26,488 --> 00:23:28,198
Um...
576
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,200
Hey! There you are.
577
00:23:30,242 --> 00:23:31,785
We've gotta go.
Where's your backpack?
578
00:23:31,827 --> 00:23:32,953
I'll go get it.
579
00:23:34,454 --> 00:23:36,581
Um...
580
00:23:36,623 --> 00:23:39,000
didn't he tell you
he had to be done by 5:00?
581
00:23:41,795 --> 00:23:42,712
Earth to Adam?
582
00:23:42,754 --> 00:23:44,172
Oh, I'm sorry.
583
00:23:44,214 --> 00:23:47,008
Um, a staff meeting ran long.
584
00:23:47,050 --> 00:23:52,431
I needed that time to get home,
make dinner, get him to bed.
585
00:23:52,472 --> 00:23:54,266
Right. Sorry.
586
00:23:55,725 --> 00:23:58,436
Okay, Robbie,
time to say goodbye.
587
00:23:58,478 --> 00:24:02,023
It doesn't have to be "goodbye"
for real, does it?
588
00:24:03,567 --> 00:24:06,194
Um, why don't you
stay for a taping?
589
00:24:06,236 --> 00:24:07,696
Robbie can do his homework
in my office
590
00:24:07,737 --> 00:24:09,364
until the show starts,
591
00:24:09,406 --> 00:24:11,324
and we could all have dinner
592
00:24:11,366 --> 00:24:13,243
to celebrate
what a week it's been.
593
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:14,703
Can we, Mom? Please?
594
00:24:14,744 --> 00:24:17,581
It was my fault
that the meeting ran late,
595
00:24:17,622 --> 00:24:20,333
and this way, you don't have
to scramble to make dinner.
596
00:24:20,375 --> 00:24:23,044
I will take you
to the best place in town.
597
00:24:23,086 --> 00:24:24,713
Beautiful views of the city,
598
00:24:24,754 --> 00:24:28,425
and I promise,
Robbie will love it.
599
00:24:28,467 --> 00:24:32,804
Besides, you have never
actually seen a taping yet.
600
00:24:32,846 --> 00:24:35,056
I think you might like it.
601
00:24:35,098 --> 00:24:37,434
Yeah, Mom,
you might even like it.
602
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:40,812
Yeah, Mom!
You might even like it.
603
00:24:42,689 --> 00:24:44,399
As temperatures drop,
604
00:24:44,441 --> 00:24:46,443
city officials
grow more concerned
605
00:24:46,484 --> 00:24:49,488
about providing warm clothing
and food security
606
00:24:49,529 --> 00:24:51,490
for the city's underprivileged.
607
00:24:51,531 --> 00:24:54,242
Mayor Timothy Finnegan
has appealed to city leaders
608
00:24:54,284 --> 00:24:57,537
to secure
additional funding.
609
00:24:57,579 --> 00:25:00,874
Mom, wasn't
the taping awesome?
610
00:25:00,916 --> 00:25:03,877
It is amazing
how many people it takes
611
00:25:03,919 --> 00:25:05,378
to bring the news to life.
612
00:25:05,420 --> 00:25:06,922
So does that mean
613
00:25:06,963 --> 00:25:10,217
you'll be watching my face
on a TV screen every night?
614
00:25:10,258 --> 00:25:11,509
I don't know about that.
615
00:25:11,551 --> 00:25:12,928
Ouch!
616
00:25:14,346 --> 00:25:15,764
But seriously,
617
00:25:15,805 --> 00:25:19,100
I mean, after a whole week
of seeing behind the scenes,
618
00:25:19,142 --> 00:25:21,186
what would it take
to get you to watch the news?
619
00:25:21,228 --> 00:25:23,563
Well, for starters...
620
00:25:23,605 --> 00:25:25,732
maybe wear something
more exciting,
621
00:25:25,774 --> 00:25:27,275
like adding more color
to your wardrobe?
622
00:25:27,317 --> 00:25:29,361
Change my signature look?
623
00:25:29,402 --> 00:25:30,654
Never.
624
00:25:31,696 --> 00:25:33,990
- Well, in all honesty...
- Okay?
625
00:25:34,032 --> 00:25:35,242
At the end of the day,
626
00:25:35,283 --> 00:25:38,411
there's just not much time
to watch the news,
627
00:25:38,453 --> 00:25:39,871
and if there is...
628
00:25:39,913 --> 00:25:41,790
why would I want to be reminded
629
00:25:41,831 --> 00:25:44,125
of everything wrong
in the world?
630
00:25:44,167 --> 00:25:45,544
That's not all the news is.
631
00:25:45,585 --> 00:25:47,546
Mm, sure feels like it.
632
00:25:49,256 --> 00:25:51,174
Mom, I left my backpack
in the control room.
633
00:25:51,216 --> 00:25:53,385
Can I go get it?
634
00:25:53,426 --> 00:25:55,095
Yes, but be careful
around that equipment, okay?
635
00:25:55,136 --> 00:25:57,180
Mom... I'm a professional.
636
00:25:58,265 --> 00:26:00,392
He is intrepid,
I give him that.
637
00:26:03,436 --> 00:26:07,232
You know you're the only anchor
he watches, right?
638
00:26:07,274 --> 00:26:08,525
Really?
639
00:26:09,943 --> 00:26:11,569
Guess there's
a lot of things you don't know
640
00:26:11,611 --> 00:26:12,404
until you ask.
641
00:26:13,571 --> 00:26:16,950
People are more than
just what they do,
642
00:26:16,992 --> 00:26:19,452
what is "newsworthy."
643
00:26:19,494 --> 00:26:21,037
Sometimes
people just want facts.
644
00:26:21,079 --> 00:26:24,708
Yeah, but...
facts without heart?
645
00:26:24,749 --> 00:26:26,835
That's not gonna get me
to tune in.
646
00:26:26,876 --> 00:26:31,256
What would...
get you to tune in?
647
00:26:34,301 --> 00:26:36,469
Okay.
648
00:26:37,762 --> 00:26:40,473
Stories where...
649
00:26:40,515 --> 00:26:44,603
I don't just...
learn what happened.
650
00:26:44,644 --> 00:26:47,230
I feel why it matters.
651
00:26:48,606 --> 00:26:50,442
Elaborate.
652
00:26:50,483 --> 00:26:56,156
Well, when I talk
to the people at the salon,
653
00:26:56,197 --> 00:26:58,825
I feel their...
654
00:26:58,867 --> 00:27:01,286
their joys, their hopes...
655
00:27:01,328 --> 00:27:03,663
and struggles,
656
00:27:03,705 --> 00:27:06,458
and that makes me
feel connected.
657
00:27:09,127 --> 00:27:10,086
That.
658
00:27:11,379 --> 00:27:13,715
That's what I want
from the news.
659
00:27:15,216 --> 00:27:17,927
And you know you can do that.
660
00:27:17,969 --> 00:27:21,097
You-you-you have the ability
to find people's stories
661
00:27:21,139 --> 00:27:24,684
and share them with the world.
662
00:27:27,812 --> 00:27:30,106
Okay. We'll see.
663
00:27:38,948 --> 00:27:40,325
All right, all right.
664
00:27:44,579 --> 00:27:45,497
Todd?
665
00:27:45,538 --> 00:27:46,790
Yeah, I'll call you back.
666
00:27:46,831 --> 00:27:47,791
Yeah?
667
00:27:48,917 --> 00:27:50,502
What do you think
about my suits?
668
00:27:50,543 --> 00:27:53,254
I mean, do you think
they lack personality?
669
00:27:53,296 --> 00:27:55,965
- Personality?
- Mm-hmm.
670
00:27:56,007 --> 00:27:58,551
Gray is the color of facts,
you know?
671
00:27:58,593 --> 00:28:00,095
Your suits suit you just fine.
672
00:28:00,136 --> 00:28:02,847
Just focus on
delivering the news, okay?
673
00:28:02,889 --> 00:28:03,973
Yeah. Oh!
674
00:28:04,015 --> 00:28:05,558
Sorry.
675
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,936
Do you think
I should smile more?
676
00:28:07,977 --> 00:28:09,354
You smile enough
for the both of us.
677
00:28:09,396 --> 00:28:10,605
I do, don't I?
678
00:28:10,647 --> 00:28:12,148
Yeah, you do!
And don't forget
679
00:28:12,190 --> 00:28:13,775
that this is a serious business.
680
00:28:13,817 --> 00:28:15,235
It's a serious job.
681
00:28:15,276 --> 00:28:17,070
You're doing
everything right.
682
00:28:17,112 --> 00:28:19,614
But what if
there's more to the job
683
00:28:19,656 --> 00:28:22,200
than doing everything right?
684
00:28:22,242 --> 00:28:23,451
There's not.
685
00:28:25,286 --> 00:28:26,287
- You're perfect.
- I am.
686
00:28:26,329 --> 00:28:27,330
- Yeah. Okay.
- Yeah.
687
00:28:27,372 --> 00:28:29,207
Yeah. Perfect.
688
00:28:33,336 --> 00:28:35,547
I think we got it all.
689
00:28:35,588 --> 00:28:38,425
Baseball glove for Danny,
690
00:28:38,466 --> 00:28:39,926
ballet slippers for Rachel,
691
00:28:39,968 --> 00:28:42,887
art supplies for Lina.
692
00:28:42,929 --> 00:28:44,931
They're gonna be so happy
693
00:28:44,973 --> 00:28:48,059
when they open their presents
on Christmas morning!
694
00:28:48,101 --> 00:28:52,397
Can I get a new Adam Kade suit
for Christmas?
695
00:28:53,481 --> 00:28:55,150
Can you just want a football,
696
00:28:55,191 --> 00:28:56,985
or a video game,
or all the video games?
697
00:28:57,026 --> 00:28:59,487
Mom, I'm pretty much
a news anchor,
698
00:28:59,529 --> 00:29:01,072
and I need the right outfit.
699
00:29:01,114 --> 00:29:02,323
Clothes make the man!
700
00:29:05,577 --> 00:29:09,205
Do you really need
another gray suit?
701
00:29:09,247 --> 00:29:11,416
Because if we're buying clothes,
702
00:29:11,458 --> 00:29:13,334
we should be getting you
an outfit
703
00:29:13,376 --> 00:29:16,588
for the Christmas concert
that's coming up fast.
704
00:29:16,629 --> 00:29:19,591
Oh! And what's the-the song
your class is singing?
705
00:29:19,632 --> 00:29:23,470
Ugh.
I don't want to do a song.
706
00:29:23,511 --> 00:29:26,306
Maybe I could be a news anchor
and even get help from...
707
00:29:26,347 --> 00:29:27,432
Adam Kade!
708
00:29:30,685 --> 00:29:32,520
Robbie Sullivan here,
reporting live
709
00:29:32,562 --> 00:29:34,772
with the impressively dressed
Adam Kade.
710
00:29:34,814 --> 00:29:36,649
What are you doing here?
711
00:29:36,691 --> 00:29:38,860
Reporting live!
I just said that.
712
00:29:38,902 --> 00:29:42,113
Mr. Kade, sources say
you're the perfect guy
713
00:29:42,155 --> 00:29:43,448
to help a kid
714
00:29:43,490 --> 00:29:45,867
be a news anchor for
his school Christmas concert.
715
00:29:45,909 --> 00:29:47,577
Do you care to comment, sir?
716
00:29:47,619 --> 00:29:50,205
Um... I don't know.
717
00:29:50,246 --> 00:29:53,208
It's a pretty busy time
right now.
718
00:29:53,249 --> 00:29:54,375
Please?
719
00:29:54,417 --> 00:29:56,044
I've been practicing
my sign-offs,
720
00:29:56,085 --> 00:29:57,629
just like you taught me.
721
00:29:57,670 --> 00:30:00,465
And it looks like
you might even have the outfit.
722
00:30:01,674 --> 00:30:03,468
I'd be happy to.
723
00:30:03,510 --> 00:30:05,804
We'll make you
practically professional.
724
00:30:05,845 --> 00:30:06,888
Ooh!
725
00:30:06,930 --> 00:30:07,722
What are you doing tonight?
726
00:30:07,764 --> 00:30:09,224
Want to come to Angel Gifts?
727
00:30:09,265 --> 00:30:11,100
We're going to help
a ton of people.
728
00:30:11,142 --> 00:30:12,185
Thank you,
729
00:30:12,227 --> 00:30:13,728
but I have
some work-related things
730
00:30:13,770 --> 00:30:15,355
I have to think about.
731
00:30:15,396 --> 00:30:20,193
Well, if you change your mind,
it really is a wonderful event.
732
00:30:20,235 --> 00:30:22,320
It's the perfect place
to see the good in the world.
733
00:30:22,362 --> 00:30:24,364
You might even like it.
734
00:30:24,405 --> 00:30:26,658
Yeah, Adam!
You might even like it!
735
00:30:27,742 --> 00:30:29,494
When you put it that way...
736
00:30:31,371 --> 00:30:33,122
I gotta watch you two.
737
00:30:35,500 --> 00:30:37,961
♪ Dashing through the snow ♪
738
00:30:38,002 --> 00:30:39,796
♪ In a one-horse
open sleigh... ♪
739
00:30:39,837 --> 00:30:42,632
Okay, here we go.
740
00:30:44,384 --> 00:30:46,469
♪ Laughing all the way ♪
741
00:30:46,511 --> 00:30:50,056
My mom always
has to give things 110%.
742
00:30:50,098 --> 00:30:51,933
Well, since she
had to work late,
743
00:30:51,975 --> 00:30:54,227
it's up to you
to keep me in line.
744
00:30:54,269 --> 00:30:56,187
Just pretend you're an elf
at Santa's workshop.
745
00:30:56,229 --> 00:30:57,564
It's been a long time
746
00:30:57,605 --> 00:30:58,982
since I wrapped
a Christmas present.
747
00:30:59,023 --> 00:31:01,067
You don't wrap your presents?
748
00:31:01,109 --> 00:31:02,527
No need to wrap a gift card.
749
00:31:02,569 --> 00:31:03,945
- Gift card?
- Mm-hmm.
750
00:31:03,987 --> 00:31:06,114
Don't you want to make
your presents special?
751
00:31:06,155 --> 00:31:07,657
What's more special
752
00:31:07,699 --> 00:31:10,034
than letting the recipient
pick the present they want
753
00:31:10,076 --> 00:31:11,035
with a gift card?
754
00:31:18,209 --> 00:31:19,335
The parents are here!
755
00:31:26,175 --> 00:31:27,552
Ah, thank you.
756
00:31:27,594 --> 00:31:31,347
Okay. Here we go.
757
00:31:31,389 --> 00:31:32,181
Hi.
758
00:31:32,223 --> 00:31:33,474
Hi.
759
00:31:33,516 --> 00:31:35,852
I'm picking up for my daughter,
Rachel Smith.
760
00:31:35,894 --> 00:31:37,562
Rachel Smith.
761
00:31:37,604 --> 00:31:38,896
Okay, Ra... Rachel Smith.
762
00:31:43,401 --> 00:31:45,653
Ah. Okay-- Rachel Smith.
763
00:31:45,695 --> 00:31:48,656
Um, ballet slippers, right?
764
00:31:48,698 --> 00:31:52,160
My mom used to tell her stories
of dancing ballet
765
00:31:52,201 --> 00:31:54,037
when she was a little girl.
766
00:31:54,078 --> 00:31:56,539
Rachel's been dreaming
of learning ballet ever since.
767
00:31:56,581 --> 00:31:58,124
Here you are.
768
00:31:58,166 --> 00:32:00,084
You don't know
how much this means.
769
00:32:00,126 --> 00:32:03,004
It's a...
770
00:32:03,046 --> 00:32:04,964
a wonderful thing
you're doing here.
771
00:32:06,507 --> 00:32:08,426
I just wrapped a few presents.
772
00:32:08,468 --> 00:32:09,677
No, no.
773
00:32:09,719 --> 00:32:12,013
You've done more than you know.
774
00:32:13,056 --> 00:32:15,099
Thank you.
775
00:32:15,141 --> 00:32:16,809
Merry Christmas!
776
00:32:20,313 --> 00:32:22,440
So much better
than a gift card.
777
00:32:27,987 --> 00:32:28,946
Hey!
778
00:32:28,988 --> 00:32:29,906
Hey, Mom!
779
00:32:29,948 --> 00:32:31,115
Hey. Oh...
780
00:32:31,157 --> 00:32:32,283
Did you have a good time?
781
00:32:32,325 --> 00:32:33,785
I'm so sad I missed it.
782
00:32:33,826 --> 00:32:35,411
It was the best.
783
00:32:35,453 --> 00:32:37,747
Thank you both
for inviting me.
784
00:32:37,789 --> 00:32:39,582
I'm really happy I came.
785
00:32:39,624 --> 00:32:43,586
Hey, who started Angel Gifts?
786
00:32:46,589 --> 00:32:47,799
You should meet...
787
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,884
Excuse me. You're Susie, right?
788
00:32:49,926 --> 00:32:51,761
I'm Adam.
789
00:32:51,803 --> 00:32:53,596
I hear you founded
Angel Gifts.
790
00:32:53,638 --> 00:32:56,933
Yes. But I had
a little guidance
791
00:32:56,974 --> 00:32:58,685
and encouragement
along the way.
792
00:32:58,726 --> 00:33:00,561
After I got the idea,
I went to Thrivent,
793
00:33:00,603 --> 00:33:02,230
and they helped me
figure out my finances
794
00:33:02,271 --> 00:33:03,856
so that I could
make it a reality,
795
00:33:03,898 --> 00:33:05,525
and now it's thanks
to volunteers like you
796
00:33:05,566 --> 00:33:06,901
that it continues.
797
00:33:06,943 --> 00:33:08,611
About that,
798
00:33:08,653 --> 00:33:11,364
I'm with KCYD News,
and I was wondering,
799
00:33:11,406 --> 00:33:12,824
would you be willing
to let me profile you
800
00:33:12,865 --> 00:33:13,950
and your story?
801
00:33:13,991 --> 00:33:16,160
Oh, I'd be happy to.
802
00:33:19,956 --> 00:33:21,791
It's really the volunteers
803
00:33:21,833 --> 00:33:22,875
who give our community hope
804
00:33:22,917 --> 00:33:24,460
and the spirit of generosity
805
00:33:24,502 --> 00:33:26,170
when it matters most.
806
00:33:26,212 --> 00:33:28,214
I can't thank you enough
807
00:33:28,256 --> 00:33:30,299
for allowing me
the chance to see
808
00:33:30,341 --> 00:33:34,053
what Angel Gifts
is really all about.
809
00:33:34,095 --> 00:33:35,680
Yeah, yeah,
it's a sweet story,
810
00:33:35,722 --> 00:33:36,889
but it's soft,
811
00:33:36,931 --> 00:33:39,225
and soft doesn't
keep people engaged.
812
00:33:39,267 --> 00:33:41,269
But maybe a story like this
could draw in new viewers.
813
00:33:41,310 --> 00:33:43,688
Or lose us the ones we have.
814
00:33:43,730 --> 00:33:47,483
Please. Just stick
to the script, okay?
815
00:33:47,525 --> 00:33:51,070
Maybe your wardrobe update
can carry it...
816
00:33:51,112 --> 00:33:52,655
but you need a better tie.
817
00:33:52,697 --> 00:33:54,323
A better tie?
818
00:33:54,365 --> 00:33:55,950
I just got this tie!
819
00:33:57,577 --> 00:33:58,828
What's wrong with my tie?

Oh, great timing.
828
00:34:25,146 --> 00:34:26,522
I was just about to call you.
829
00:34:26,564 --> 00:34:27,940
You go first.
830
00:34:27,982 --> 00:34:30,943
Listen, did you ever push back
on a producer's wishes
831
00:34:30,985 --> 00:34:32,487
to include a story?
832
00:34:32,528 --> 00:34:33,613
If I cared deeply
about it, yes.
833
00:34:33,654 --> 00:34:34,781
- Okay.
- I did.
834
00:34:34,822 --> 00:34:36,365
And how did it go?
835
00:34:36,407 --> 00:34:38,201
Well, sometimes they'd run it,
836
00:34:38,242 --> 00:34:39,368
most of the time,
they didn't,
837
00:34:39,410 --> 00:34:41,370
but hey, you win some,
you lose some.
838
00:34:41,412 --> 00:34:43,414
Well, in this case,
I think I might be losing.
839
00:34:43,456 --> 00:34:44,999
If you're gonna fight
for a story,
840
00:34:45,041 --> 00:34:46,959
and really fight for it,
841
00:34:47,001 --> 00:34:48,586
then you have to know
why it matters,
842
00:34:48,628 --> 00:34:51,255
and not just to your audience,
but to you as well.
843
00:34:51,297 --> 00:34:53,466
So tell me,
why is this one worth it?
844
00:34:53,508 --> 00:34:55,343
I don't know exactly.
845
00:34:55,384 --> 00:34:57,386
I just have a feeling
that it is.
846
00:34:57,428 --> 00:34:59,555
I, uh, I spoke with Nathan.
847
00:34:59,597 --> 00:35:02,350
You've been shortlisted
for the Chicago desk.
848
00:35:02,391 --> 00:35:04,268
This is a big moment.
849
00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:07,021
I mean, you-you are so good
at what you do,
850
00:35:07,063 --> 00:35:08,689
and Chicago has taken notice.
851
00:35:08,731 --> 00:35:10,858
Yeah...
852
00:35:10,900 --> 00:35:14,654
but how do I become great
at what I do?
853
00:35:14,695 --> 00:35:17,824
Well, you have to have focus,
which you have, and you...
854
00:35:17,865 --> 00:35:20,451
you have to work hard,
which you do,
855
00:35:20,493 --> 00:35:22,119
and a whole lot of faith.
856
00:35:22,161 --> 00:35:23,663
Right.
857
00:35:23,704 --> 00:35:26,123
Okay, thanks. Talk soon.
858
00:35:33,756 --> 00:35:35,633
Oh...
859
00:35:35,675 --> 00:35:37,760
feels like just yesterday,
you were that big.
860
00:35:37,802 --> 00:35:40,263
It's a good thing
I've grown up since then.
861
00:35:40,304 --> 00:35:42,849
Too fast, if you ask me.
862
00:35:42,890 --> 00:35:45,560
I'm 10.
I'm pretty much an adult.
863
00:35:45,601 --> 00:35:47,478
Can I go do
the gingerbread houses
864
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:48,855
with the elves after?
865
00:35:50,356 --> 00:35:53,526
Building houses
is a very adult thing to do.
866
00:35:53,568 --> 00:35:55,444
Yes, you can,
and you know what?
867
00:35:55,486 --> 00:35:58,114
I'm gonna get
some shopping done quickly,
868
00:35:58,155 --> 00:36:00,575
but the most important
question is--
869
00:36:00,616 --> 00:36:02,535
do you remember
your Christmas wish?
870
00:36:02,577 --> 00:36:03,536
Definitely!
871
00:36:03,578 --> 00:36:05,454
Adam?
872
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:07,999
Mom, that wasn't even my wish!
873
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,292
Hey, you two.
874
00:36:09,333 --> 00:36:13,379
Well... this is
a merry coincidence.
875
00:36:13,421 --> 00:36:14,505
Maybe the holiday spirit
876
00:36:14,547 --> 00:36:16,215
just pointed me
in the right direction.
877
00:36:16,257 --> 00:36:19,343
It has a way
of working its magic.
878
00:36:21,012 --> 00:36:23,097
What are you doing here?
879
00:36:23,139 --> 00:36:24,891
Well... someone pretty smart
880
00:36:24,932 --> 00:36:28,102
told me
I need to up my style game.
881
00:36:28,144 --> 00:36:30,146
Is Angel Gifts
gonna be on the show tonight?
882
00:36:31,439 --> 00:36:33,524
Unfortunately, no.
883
00:36:33,566 --> 00:36:35,484
Todd nixed it.
884
00:36:36,569 --> 00:36:37,528
Oh.
885
00:36:38,738 --> 00:36:40,281
Are you ready
886
00:36:40,323 --> 00:36:41,657
to meet Santa Claus
and tell him your wish?
887
00:36:41,699 --> 00:36:42,867
Okay.
888
00:36:42,909 --> 00:36:44,619
All right.
I'll see you in 15.
889
00:36:50,958 --> 00:36:52,835
I just wanted
to say thank you
890
00:36:52,877 --> 00:36:54,545
for what you've done
for Robbie.
891
00:36:54,587 --> 00:36:56,631
He's a great kid,
892
00:36:56,672 --> 00:36:59,175
even if he's got
a million questions a minute.
893
00:37:00,843 --> 00:37:02,762
And you take the time to listen
and answer them.
894
00:37:02,803 --> 00:37:04,222
Not everyone does.
895
00:37:04,263 --> 00:37:05,681
That means a lot.
896
00:37:05,723 --> 00:37:08,392
Must be
my journalism background.
897
00:37:08,434 --> 00:37:09,685
You going up?
898
00:37:09,727 --> 00:37:11,354
Yeah.
899
00:37:11,395 --> 00:37:13,189
After you.
900
00:37:13,231 --> 00:37:14,815
It was so wonderful
901
00:37:14,857 --> 00:37:16,609
watching you
interview Susie yesterday.
902
00:37:16,651 --> 00:37:20,321
You weren't treating it
like it was just a headline.
903
00:37:20,363 --> 00:37:21,656
Thanks.
904
00:37:21,697 --> 00:37:25,326
It's just a shame the world
won't get to see it.
905
00:37:28,162 --> 00:37:30,122
Well, maybe they can
still see you.
906
00:37:31,332 --> 00:37:32,667
There's more
to the man behind the desk
907
00:37:32,708 --> 00:37:33,960
than meets the eye.
908
00:37:34,001 --> 00:37:35,461
I'm not sure
909
00:37:35,503 --> 00:37:37,463
I'm ready to make
that kind of leap.
910
00:37:37,505 --> 00:37:39,840
Well, every leap
starts with a little faith.
911
00:37:39,882 --> 00:37:42,426
Just show them more
of what I see.
912
00:37:48,975 --> 00:37:52,645
Next up, the rolling blackouts
on Delaney Street.
913
00:37:52,687 --> 00:37:55,481
15 seconds till we're back.
914
00:37:55,523 --> 00:37:57,024
The lights too hot?
You're sweating.
915
00:37:57,066 --> 00:37:58,567
I'm fine.
916
00:37:58,609 --> 00:37:59,777
Thank you.
917
00:38:00,945 --> 00:38:02,363
And we're back in five...
918
00:38:02,405 --> 00:38:03,447
four...
919
00:38:03,489 --> 00:38:05,074
three... two...
920
00:38:05,116 --> 00:38:06,284
one.
921
00:38:06,325 --> 00:38:08,160
Welcome back.
922
00:38:08,202 --> 00:38:09,370
The rolling blackouts
on Delaney Street
923
00:38:09,412 --> 00:38:10,454
put a damper
924
00:38:10,496 --> 00:38:14,000
on what's usually
a bright spot.
925
00:38:22,967 --> 00:38:25,553
Did we lose...
926
00:38:25,594 --> 00:38:26,929
Keep reading, Adam.
927
00:38:30,558 --> 00:38:32,226
But...
928
00:38:32,268 --> 00:38:34,645
there is one bright spot,
929
00:38:34,687 --> 00:38:36,313
Angel Gifts,
930
00:38:36,355 --> 00:38:37,690
a charity that's making
931
00:38:37,732 --> 00:38:42,361
some local families'
Christmas wishes come true.
932
00:38:42,403 --> 00:38:44,613
Stick
to the script, Adam.
933
00:38:44,655 --> 00:38:47,783
I've covered holiday charities
before, but tonight...
934
00:38:47,825 --> 00:38:49,076
Adam...
935
00:38:49,118 --> 00:38:50,703
...I want to introduce you
to some volunteers
936
00:38:50,745 --> 00:38:54,498
that are making a difference
in our very own community.
937
00:38:55,374 --> 00:38:57,293
Okay, what is he doing?
938
00:38:57,335 --> 00:38:58,961
Hey! What are you doing?
939
00:38:59,003 --> 00:39:00,129
Susie...
940
00:39:00,171 --> 00:39:02,673
along with
the sponsors at Thrivent,
941
00:39:02,715 --> 00:39:04,258
you have helped
thousands of families
942
00:39:04,300 --> 00:39:05,509
through Angel Gifts.
943
00:39:05,551 --> 00:39:07,261
How did it all start?
944
00:39:07,303 --> 00:39:08,804
With one child.
945
00:39:08,846 --> 00:39:11,015
Mom! My wish to Santa
came true!
946
00:39:11,057 --> 00:39:11,932
A couple of Christmases ago,
947
00:39:11,974 --> 00:39:13,976
I was at the post office,
948
00:39:14,018 --> 00:39:17,480
and I saw a little girl
mailing a letter to Santa.
949
00:39:17,521 --> 00:39:18,647
She wasn't asking for toys.
950
00:39:18,689 --> 00:39:21,358
She was asking for a backpack
951
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,027
because her old one
had ripped apart,
952
00:39:23,069 --> 00:39:25,613
and her parents
couldn't afford a new one,
953
00:39:25,654 --> 00:39:27,198
but I couldn't
get it out of my mind.
954
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:28,866
The next day,
I went to the post office
955
00:39:28,908 --> 00:39:31,285
and asked if there were
more letters like hers.
956
00:39:31,327 --> 00:39:32,578
There were hundreds.
957
00:39:32,620 --> 00:39:35,331
And what did
it make you realize?
958
00:39:35,373 --> 00:39:38,376
That I could be somebody
who does something,
959
00:39:38,417 --> 00:39:39,668
who puts good into the world.
960
00:39:39,710 --> 00:39:41,212
It's easy to think
961
00:39:41,253 --> 00:39:43,714
kindness is someone else's
responsibility.
962
00:39:43,756 --> 00:39:46,008
Until you realize
you're that somebody.
963
00:39:46,050 --> 00:39:47,385
It seems to me
964
00:39:47,426 --> 00:39:50,096
that the real gift
you're giving for Christmas
965
00:39:50,137 --> 00:39:51,430
is hope, Susie.
966
00:39:51,472 --> 00:39:53,557
It's really the volunteers
967
00:39:53,599 --> 00:39:56,060
who give our community hope
and the spirit of generosity
968
00:39:56,102 --> 00:39:57,561
when it matters most.
969
00:39:57,603 --> 00:39:59,105
I can't thank you enough
970
00:39:59,146 --> 00:40:01,190
for allowing me
the chance to see
971
00:40:01,232 --> 00:40:03,567
what Angel Gifts
is really all about.
972
00:40:03,609 --> 00:40:05,986
Hope is something
we could all use right now,
973
00:40:06,028 --> 00:40:08,447
but it's not just a word.
974
00:40:08,489 --> 00:40:10,449
Thanks to Susie
and her volunteers,
975
00:40:10,491 --> 00:40:13,744
hope is something
you can hold in your hands
976
00:40:13,786 --> 00:40:15,121
on Christmas morning.
977
00:40:15,162 --> 00:40:17,081
I'm Adam Kade with KCYD News,
978
00:40:17,123 --> 00:40:18,749
and tonight,
979
00:40:18,791 --> 00:40:23,546
thank you for letting me tell
a different kind of story.
980
00:40:23,587 --> 00:40:25,297
And... we're out.
981
00:40:25,339 --> 00:40:27,383
What just happened?
982
00:40:33,848 --> 00:40:34,890
Huh?
983
00:40:34,932 --> 00:40:36,976
Hey. Hey, hey, hey, hey.
984
00:40:37,017 --> 00:40:38,978
I thought we agreed
not to do the charity story.
985
00:40:39,019 --> 00:40:40,521
It was one segment
out of the hour.
986
00:40:40,563 --> 00:40:41,939
You don't understand.
987
00:40:41,981 --> 00:40:44,233
I'm trying to keep
this whole place afloat.
988
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:45,359
Well, sure,
you're the producer, so--
989
00:40:45,401 --> 00:40:46,485
No, Adam!
990
00:40:47,778 --> 00:40:50,447
Our parent company
wants to make cuts...
991
00:40:50,489 --> 00:40:51,574
across the board.
992
00:40:51,615 --> 00:40:53,242
They do?
993
00:40:53,284 --> 00:40:54,535
Yeah, and I've been
desperately trying
994
00:40:54,577 --> 00:40:55,953
not to give them reasons to,
995
00:40:55,995 --> 00:40:57,621
especially
around the holidays.
996
00:40:57,663 --> 00:40:58,914
That's why I've been so worried
that a change in direction
997
00:40:58,956 --> 00:40:59,999
could hurt us.
998
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,292
Okay, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait.
999
00:41:01,333 --> 00:41:03,002
You're saying and thinking
1000
00:41:03,043 --> 00:41:05,671
that a story like this
can make the people tune out?
1001
00:41:05,713 --> 00:41:07,840
We can't take that chance.
1002
00:41:11,177 --> 00:41:12,678
You know...
1003
00:41:12,720 --> 00:41:14,638
I can't remember the last time
you called in vacation days.
1004
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:15,931
Vacation?
1005
00:41:15,973 --> 00:41:18,142
Yeah, you know, now seems
like the perfect time.
1006
00:41:18,184 --> 00:41:20,227
- Todd--
- We can have Kim sub in.
1007
00:41:20,269 --> 00:41:21,270
But listen--
1008
00:41:21,312 --> 00:41:22,646
I'm-I'm sorry,
1009
00:41:22,688 --> 00:41:24,899
but why don't you take
some holiday R&R?
1010
00:41:24,940 --> 00:41:26,859
It'll be good for you.
1011
00:41:29,028 --> 00:41:29,862
Yeah.
1012
00:41:30,696 --> 00:41:31,947
Todd...
1013
00:41:31,989 --> 00:41:33,365
Todd!
1014
00:41:48,172 --> 00:41:50,299
Cookies for breakfast?
1015
00:41:51,550 --> 00:41:52,718
Nice try.
1016
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:54,345
Cookies for later.
1017
00:41:54,386 --> 00:41:56,055
I was feeling inspired.
1018
00:41:56,096 --> 00:41:57,848
By what?
1019
00:41:57,890 --> 00:42:00,100
Adam's news story?
1020
00:42:00,142 --> 00:42:03,229
Can we bring cookies to Adam
to thank him for his story?
1021
00:42:03,270 --> 00:42:05,439
I am sure he's busy.
1022
00:42:05,481 --> 00:42:06,941
Let's call him!
1023
00:42:06,982 --> 00:42:09,401
Robbie! Robbie, wait! Wait!
1024
00:42:09,443 --> 00:42:11,570
Ahem.
1025
00:42:19,078 --> 00:42:20,412
Well, hello.
1026
00:42:20,454 --> 00:42:22,873
Adam! It's me,
Robbie Sullivan.
1027
00:42:22,915 --> 00:42:25,251
Hello, Robbie Sullivan.
1028
00:42:25,292 --> 00:42:26,877
Are you too busy
for gingerbread men?
1029
00:42:26,919 --> 00:42:29,588
You don't appear
to be at school.
1030
00:42:29,630 --> 00:42:31,173
I'm on vacation,
1031
00:42:31,215 --> 00:42:33,175
and we want to bring you
gingerbread men.
1032
00:42:33,217 --> 00:42:35,177
Are you... at work?
1033
00:42:35,219 --> 00:42:38,138
Actually...
I'm on vacation too.
1034
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,183
Is that your house?
1035
00:42:41,225 --> 00:42:44,019
Where are
your Christmas decorations?
1036
00:42:44,061 --> 00:42:45,271
I...
1037
00:42:45,312 --> 00:42:49,108
am not in a Christmas mood,
actually, so...
1038
00:42:49,149 --> 00:42:51,527
Mom, this is an emergency!
1039
00:42:51,568 --> 00:42:53,696
A man has lost
his Christmas spirit!
1040
00:42:53,737 --> 00:42:55,572
Oh...
1041
00:42:55,614 --> 00:42:57,700
Robbie...
you might be right.
1042
00:42:57,741 --> 00:43:00,369
Everything about
what you got going on there
1043
00:43:00,411 --> 00:43:01,537
needs a little
Christmas spirit.
1044
00:43:01,579 --> 00:43:03,414
Maybe.
1045
00:43:03,455 --> 00:43:06,250
Ooh! Adam, if you're not
decorating your house today,
1046
00:43:06,292 --> 00:43:07,876
we need your help decorating!
1047
00:43:07,918 --> 00:43:09,378
Mom will text you
the address.
1048
00:43:09,420 --> 00:43:10,379
Uh... okay.
1049
00:43:10,421 --> 00:43:12,715
See you there.
1050
00:43:15,968 --> 00:43:18,554
Mom, Adam's going to help.
1051
00:43:23,058 --> 00:43:25,311
You know I'll always
be here for you, right?
1052
00:43:25,352 --> 00:43:26,812
You're my number one.
1053
00:43:26,854 --> 00:43:29,315
You know I'll always be here
for you too, right?
1054
00:43:29,356 --> 00:43:31,066
You're my number one.
1055
00:43:31,108 --> 00:43:33,986
Oh...
1056
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,783
Where do the magical
Christmas clouds go?
1057
00:43:39,825 --> 00:43:41,619
Um...
1058
00:43:43,037 --> 00:43:44,455
Excuse me.
1059
00:43:44,496 --> 00:43:45,831
Hey.
1060
00:43:45,873 --> 00:43:46,749
- Hey.
- All right, here you go.
1061
00:43:46,790 --> 00:43:47,875
Thank you.
1062
00:43:47,916 --> 00:43:50,377
Oh, pardon me, uh, Mr. Kade?
1063
00:43:50,419 --> 00:43:52,921
Please, just Adam.
1064
00:43:52,963 --> 00:43:54,423
- Adam.
- Yes?
1065
00:43:54,465 --> 00:43:56,508
That piece you did
on Angel Gifts
1066
00:43:56,550 --> 00:43:58,218
was just wonderful.
1067
00:43:58,260 --> 00:44:00,596
It-- it didn't even
feel like the news.
1068
00:44:00,637 --> 00:44:03,015
Thank you for sharing it
1069
00:44:03,057 --> 00:44:05,934
and reminding everybody
that there's good in the world,
1070
00:44:05,976 --> 00:44:07,811
especially this time of year.
1071
00:44:09,104 --> 00:44:10,356
Thank you.
1072
00:44:10,397 --> 00:44:13,442
That...
means more than you know.
1073
00:44:17,321 --> 00:44:19,073
Hey.
1074
00:44:19,114 --> 00:44:21,992
No one's ever come up to me
like that before,
1075
00:44:22,034 --> 00:44:23,952
or at least not
to say something so kind.
1076
00:44:23,994 --> 00:44:25,204
She's right.
1077
00:44:25,245 --> 00:44:27,581
You've made
quite the impression,
1078
00:44:27,623 --> 00:44:29,666
and not just on her.
1079
00:44:31,794 --> 00:44:34,880
Uh... I mean, on Robbie.
1080
00:44:34,922 --> 00:44:36,006
- Right, Robbie.
- You've made
1081
00:44:36,048 --> 00:44:37,257
quite the impression on him,
1082
00:44:37,299 --> 00:44:40,719
and I have to admit,
usually I'm really good
1083
00:44:40,761 --> 00:44:42,429
at reading people
in my line of work,
1084
00:44:42,471 --> 00:44:44,807
but you impressed me.
1085
00:44:46,850 --> 00:44:48,185
Oh, thank you.
1086
00:44:48,227 --> 00:44:49,520
Ms. Somerville,
1087
00:44:49,561 --> 00:44:51,814
instead of singing carols
at the Christmas concert,
1088
00:44:51,855 --> 00:44:54,525
can I be a news anchor
and tell a Christmas story?
1089
00:44:54,566 --> 00:44:56,485
Oh, well,
the show's coming up.
1090
00:44:56,527 --> 00:44:58,278
It's not a lot of time
to change things.
1091
00:44:58,320 --> 00:44:59,822
Yeah, but guess who's
helping me?
1092
00:44:59,863 --> 00:45:00,948
I don't know, Robbie.
1093
00:45:00,989 --> 00:45:01,990
Santa Claus?
1094
00:45:02,032 --> 00:45:03,242
No! Adam Kade.
1095
00:45:04,993 --> 00:45:07,204
Oh, a close second to Santa!
1096
00:45:07,246 --> 00:45:08,997
Adam... tell her!
1097
00:45:09,039 --> 00:45:11,417
Um, I'd be happy
to participate,
1098
00:45:11,458 --> 00:45:12,751
if it doesn't get in the way.
1099
00:45:12,793 --> 00:45:14,628
It won't get in the way.
1100
00:45:14,670 --> 00:45:16,380
The world must be informed.
1101
00:45:18,507 --> 00:45:21,009
Well, I suppose you two
better do it, then.
1102
00:45:22,636 --> 00:45:25,848
You know, I forgot how much fun
it was to decorate.
1103
00:45:25,889 --> 00:45:27,266
I mean, I haven't
decorated like this
1104
00:45:27,307 --> 00:45:29,017
since I was a kid.
1105
00:45:31,437 --> 00:45:33,105
What?
1106
00:45:33,147 --> 00:45:35,023
...what?
1107
00:45:36,483 --> 00:45:38,652
What?

Thank you.
1120
00:46:26,950 --> 00:46:28,452
Ooh.
1121
00:46:28,494 --> 00:46:30,162
You know,
1122
00:46:30,204 --> 00:46:31,955
I haven't done
Christmas like this
1123
00:46:31,997 --> 00:46:33,665
for a long time.
1124
00:46:33,707 --> 00:46:36,376
I didn't know
how much I missed it.
1125
00:46:36,418 --> 00:46:38,378
Does your family live nearby?
1126
00:46:38,420 --> 00:46:40,464
My parents are a couple hours
from here.
1127
00:46:40,506 --> 00:46:41,882
Oh. That's great.
1128
00:46:42,966 --> 00:46:44,343
Mine are in Florida.
1129
00:46:44,384 --> 00:46:46,512
Traded snow for sand.
1130
00:46:46,553 --> 00:46:49,556
It must be nice
to have family close.
1131
00:46:49,598 --> 00:46:52,643
Honestly...
I don't see them that much.
1132
00:46:53,602 --> 00:46:56,313
When I started
at the station,
1133
00:46:56,355 --> 00:46:58,524
I took every shift
that was thrown at me.
1134
00:46:58,565 --> 00:47:01,026
You know, breaking news
didn't wait for family dinners.
1135
00:47:01,068 --> 00:47:02,861
Even at Christmas?
1136
00:47:02,903 --> 00:47:04,363
I worked the Christmas shift.
1137
00:47:04,404 --> 00:47:07,241
Believe it or not...
1138
00:47:07,282 --> 00:47:09,868
this was my favorite holiday
growing up.
1139
00:47:09,910 --> 00:47:12,037
We always had a big party.
1140
00:47:12,079 --> 00:47:15,332
All my family would
pack into the house--
1141
00:47:15,374 --> 00:47:18,252
too many suitcases,
not enough beds...
1142
00:47:18,293 --> 00:47:20,587
but it just felt like
1143
00:47:20,629 --> 00:47:22,840
where everyone
was supposed to be.
1144
00:47:24,007 --> 00:47:25,801
It's never too late
1145
00:47:25,842 --> 00:47:28,679
to find your way back
to the things that matter.
1146
00:47:29,847 --> 00:47:32,641
Maybe I'm already
finding my way.
1147
00:47:33,725 --> 00:47:35,310
Oh!
1148
00:47:36,937 --> 00:47:38,897
Not just a lump of coal
in there.
1149
00:47:38,939 --> 00:47:40,274
Don't tell anyone.
1150
00:47:40,315 --> 00:47:41,358
Your secret's safe with me.
1151
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,235
Oh...
1152
00:47:43,277 --> 00:47:45,028
Okay!
1153
00:47:49,449 --> 00:47:50,993
Thank you for today.
1154
00:47:51,034 --> 00:47:52,578
For...
1155
00:47:52,619 --> 00:47:54,955
for everything.
1156
00:47:54,997 --> 00:47:57,374
Oh... it was nothing.
1157
00:47:59,167 --> 00:48:02,004
It was something to me.
1158
00:48:08,427 --> 00:48:09,887
Oh!
1159
00:48:09,928 --> 00:48:11,013
We missed one!
1160
00:48:11,054 --> 00:48:13,724
Did we? Okay.
1161
00:48:13,765 --> 00:48:15,017
Come on.
1162
00:48:15,058 --> 00:48:18,270
Okay, I'm coming,
I'm coming, I'm coming.
1163
00:48:18,312 --> 00:48:19,771
There.
1164
00:48:19,813 --> 00:48:21,315
Okay... all right.
1165
00:48:21,356 --> 00:48:23,900
And now...
1166
00:48:23,942 --> 00:48:26,069
the best part.
1167
00:48:32,451 --> 00:48:34,578
Now it feels like Christmas.
1168
00:48:34,620 --> 00:48:36,455
Mm...
1169
00:48:47,966 --> 00:48:49,760
Ahem.
1170
00:48:49,801 --> 00:48:51,553
Um...
1171
00:48:51,595 --> 00:48:53,221
I should probably go.
1172
00:48:53,263 --> 00:48:55,182
I understand.
1173
00:48:56,391 --> 00:48:58,727

1174
00:49:01,438 --> 00:49:04,191

Most anchors
don't answer work calls
1177
00:49:12,491 --> 00:49:13,617
when they're on vacation.
1178
00:49:13,659 --> 00:49:14,660
Yeah, well...
1179
00:49:14,701 --> 00:49:15,827
most anchors don't deliver
1180
00:49:15,869 --> 00:49:17,829
the most-viewed segment
of the year.
1181
00:49:18,872 --> 00:49:20,666
What?
1182
00:49:20,707 --> 00:49:22,584
We've had more call-ins
than we do in a whole month.
1183
00:49:22,626 --> 00:49:24,127
People are feeling inspired--
1184
00:49:24,169 --> 00:49:25,295
Wow!
1185
00:49:25,337 --> 00:49:26,797
Okay, okay!
1186
00:49:26,838 --> 00:49:28,924
Yeah, and, uh...
1187
00:49:28,965 --> 00:49:31,677
you were following your gut.
I should've listened.
1188
00:49:31,718 --> 00:49:32,761
I'm sorry.
1189
00:49:34,096 --> 00:49:36,723
You had every reason
to be concerned.
1190
00:49:36,765 --> 00:49:38,517
Yeah, well, anyway, look,
1191
00:49:38,558 --> 00:49:39,518
here's what I'm thinking--
1192
00:49:39,559 --> 00:49:41,937
I think we mix up our slate...
1193
00:49:41,978 --> 00:49:43,855
a deeper, more uplifting side
1194
00:49:43,897 --> 00:49:45,899
to our typical
holiday coverage.
1195
00:49:45,941 --> 00:49:48,819
Well, I'm still on vacation,
so...
1196
00:49:48,860 --> 00:49:51,279
Hmph! Vacation's over.
1197
00:49:55,534 --> 00:49:56,868
Wow.
1198
00:50:01,581 --> 00:50:02,624
Adam!
1199
00:50:02,666 --> 00:50:03,917
- Mm-hmm.
- That's exciting news.
1200
00:50:03,959 --> 00:50:06,003
I wanted you to be the first
to hear it.
1201
00:50:10,340 --> 00:50:11,508
What is it?
1202
00:50:11,550 --> 00:50:12,801
It's nothing.
1203
00:50:12,843 --> 00:50:14,886
Just someone saying
they liked my report.
1204
00:50:14,928 --> 00:50:16,930
So what's your next story
gonna be?
1205
00:50:16,972 --> 00:50:20,600
Um, I haven't
quite figured it out yet.
1206
00:50:23,311 --> 00:50:25,564
But, um, there's
this opportunity, I think,
1207
00:50:25,605 --> 00:50:27,107
- that--
- Can I get you sugar plums
1208
00:50:27,149 --> 00:50:28,275
anything?
1209
00:50:28,316 --> 00:50:29,776
The recipe
for these peppermint scones.
1210
00:50:29,818 --> 00:50:31,278
They're delicious.
1211
00:50:31,319 --> 00:50:32,195
Oh, bless your heart!
1212
00:50:32,237 --> 00:50:34,322
It's my husband's recipe.
1213
00:50:34,364 --> 00:50:36,450
He's in the back,
whipping up a fresh batch.
1214
00:50:36,491 --> 00:50:39,119
We box up bakery care packages
1215
00:50:39,161 --> 00:50:42,039
and deliver them to folks
who could use a little warmth.
1216
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:43,623
That's so lovely.
1217
00:50:43,665 --> 00:50:46,877
Well, it's our way of saying,
"You're not forgotten."
1218
00:50:46,918 --> 00:50:48,962
I think a lot of people
1219
00:50:49,004 --> 00:50:51,339
would love to hear that
at Christmas.
1220
00:50:53,967 --> 00:50:54,968
If you've got a warm oven,
1221
00:50:55,010 --> 00:50:56,970
then you've got
something to give.
1222
00:50:58,138 --> 00:50:59,347
Each time we bake,
1223
00:50:59,389 --> 00:51:01,016
we always make
a little bit extra
1224
00:51:01,057 --> 00:51:02,726
so we can give it to those
who don't have as much.
1225
00:51:02,768 --> 00:51:04,102
How can I help?
1226
00:51:04,144 --> 00:51:05,854
You can start packing up
this box of cookies.
1227
00:51:08,231 --> 00:51:09,775
And that's what helped a couple
1228
00:51:09,816 --> 00:51:11,443
go from an idea
1229
00:51:11,485 --> 00:51:13,070
to a community icon.
1230
00:51:13,111 --> 00:51:16,615
There's more good in the world
than people think.
1231
00:51:16,656 --> 00:51:20,577
Sometimes you just have
to open your door to see it.
1232
00:51:20,619 --> 00:51:22,370
You used to turn that off.
1233
00:51:22,412 --> 00:51:24,081
Now look at you.
1234
00:51:25,957 --> 00:51:28,210
I'm Adam Kade,
and tonight,
1235
00:51:28,251 --> 00:51:31,129
I hope you find
your door to open.
1236
00:51:37,969 --> 00:51:39,429
Oh, no.
1237
00:51:39,471 --> 00:51:42,641
My client Cheryl asked
to push later today...
1238
00:51:42,682 --> 00:51:45,060
but I gotta pick Robbie up!
1239
00:51:45,101 --> 00:51:46,520
Maybe you could ask
1240
00:51:46,561 --> 00:51:47,604
a certain news anchor
you couldn't take your eyes off
1241
00:51:47,646 --> 00:51:48,772
to help you out.
1242
00:51:48,814 --> 00:51:51,149
Adam? I can't!
1243
00:51:51,191 --> 00:51:52,275
Why not?
1244
00:51:52,317 --> 00:51:54,236
Be-- because!
1245
00:51:54,277 --> 00:51:56,613
If I ask for help this one time,
1246
00:51:56,655 --> 00:51:58,532
before I know it,
I'll be relying on someone.
1247
00:51:58,573 --> 00:52:00,242
And what's so wrong
with that?
1248
00:52:00,283 --> 00:52:02,202
You know what happened
the last time I did that!
1249
00:52:02,244 --> 00:52:03,495
When it comes to my kid,
1250
00:52:03,537 --> 00:52:06,039
I want to be able to stand
on my own two feet.
1251
00:52:06,081 --> 00:52:07,123
And make sure
he's taken care of,
1252
00:52:07,165 --> 00:52:08,708
I get it,
1253
00:52:08,750 --> 00:52:10,460
but you don't
have to be an island
1254
00:52:10,502 --> 00:52:11,795
and do everything yourself.
1255
00:52:11,837 --> 00:52:14,172
Find your door to open.
1256
00:52:15,632 --> 00:52:17,259
You--
1257
00:52:17,300 --> 00:52:18,969
I'm sure Robbie would love
an afternoon with Adam.
1258
00:52:25,517 --> 00:52:27,602
Hmm.
1259
00:52:32,899 --> 00:52:34,442
Hello?
1260
00:52:34,484 --> 00:52:36,236
Hi. Hi, Adam.
1261
00:52:36,278 --> 00:52:39,155
So, I was wondering if...
1262
00:52:39,197 --> 00:52:40,866
Yes?
1263
00:52:40,907 --> 00:52:44,202
Um, you would be able to...
1264
00:52:44,244 --> 00:52:46,538
pick up Robbie this afternoon?
1265
00:52:46,580 --> 00:52:48,081
You mean help?
1266
00:52:49,207 --> 00:52:51,877
Yes. Those are the words.
1267
00:52:53,086 --> 00:52:55,589
I wonder what it sounds like
when you say it.
1268
00:52:56,673 --> 00:52:58,842
Are you really
making me do this?
1269
00:52:58,884 --> 00:53:00,677
Definitely!
1270
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:02,888
Okay, fine.
1271
00:53:04,973 --> 00:53:08,977
Can you please... help me
1272
00:53:09,019 --> 00:53:09,978
this afternoon?
1273
00:53:10,020 --> 00:53:11,688
Never thought I'd see the day.
1274
00:53:12,981 --> 00:53:15,609
I'd be more than happy
to entertain
1275
00:53:15,650 --> 00:53:16,860
the great Robbie Sullivan.
1276
00:53:16,902 --> 00:53:17,903
We can work on his idea
1277
00:53:17,944 --> 00:53:19,237
for the Christmas concert.
1278
00:53:19,279 --> 00:53:21,573
Thank you. Thank you.
I'll text you the details.
1279
00:53:21,615 --> 00:53:23,658
Okay, sounds good.
1280
00:53:28,705 --> 00:53:30,916
I'm proud of you.
1281
00:53:30,957 --> 00:53:32,709
Desperate times. That's all.
1282
00:53:32,751 --> 00:53:34,502
- You're making excuses, girl.
- No, I'm not.
1283
00:53:36,838 --> 00:53:38,924
This place is amazing!
1284
00:53:38,965 --> 00:53:40,842
I was tipped off
to a story,
1285
00:53:40,884 --> 00:53:42,719
and I thought
we should check it out.
1286
00:53:42,761 --> 00:53:44,304
Partridge in a pear tree!
1287
00:53:44,346 --> 00:53:46,473
Just like the 12 days
of Christmas.
1288
00:53:46,514 --> 00:53:47,682
Mm-hmm.
1289
00:53:47,724 --> 00:53:50,602
Good eye, young sir.
1290
00:53:50,644 --> 00:53:52,729
Every December,
for 12 days straight,
1291
00:53:52,771 --> 00:53:55,649
the park grants me permission
to fill this place with wonder.
1292
00:53:55,690 --> 00:53:58,360
A partridge in a pear tree,
two turtle doves,
1293
00:53:58,401 --> 00:53:59,986
and onward we go.
1294
00:54:00,028 --> 00:54:02,072
All the way
to 12 drummers drumming?
1295
00:54:02,113 --> 00:54:03,740
The whole parade.
1296
00:54:03,782 --> 00:54:05,951
I'm told
you decorate all these
1297
00:54:05,992 --> 00:54:07,035
for someone special.
1298
00:54:07,077 --> 00:54:08,662
I sure do.
1299
00:54:08,703 --> 00:54:10,080
For Rona.
1300
00:54:10,121 --> 00:54:13,375
For Rona? And who is Rona?
1301
00:54:14,501 --> 00:54:16,253
The one who got away.
1302
00:54:16,294 --> 00:54:18,880
Hmm.
1303
00:54:18,922 --> 00:54:20,548
I'm Adam Kade.
1304
00:54:20,590 --> 00:54:21,967
This is Robbie.
1305
00:54:22,008 --> 00:54:24,803
It's a pleasure
to meet you both.
1306
00:54:24,844 --> 00:54:26,471
This is truly beautiful.
1307
00:54:26,513 --> 00:54:28,932
Thank you.
1308
00:54:28,974 --> 00:54:31,518
Rona and I met
in this very spot
1309
00:54:31,559 --> 00:54:33,478
40 years ago, over Christmas.
1310
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:35,981
I was an art school dreamer,
1311
00:54:36,022 --> 00:54:38,066
and she was a busker
in a red peacoat.
1312
00:54:39,150 --> 00:54:40,318
It was love at first sight.
1313
00:54:42,779 --> 00:54:44,906
How did you know
it was love?
1314
00:54:46,074 --> 00:54:47,325
Because I was
the best version of myself
1315
00:54:47,367 --> 00:54:48,827
when I was with her.
1316
00:54:48,868 --> 00:54:50,537
I didn't want
to leave her side.
1317
00:54:51,705 --> 00:54:53,081
That's a special feeling
1318
00:54:53,123 --> 00:54:54,874
when you find someone
that makes you feel that.
1319
00:54:54,916 --> 00:54:57,919
Rona was visiting town
for 12 days.
1320
00:54:57,961 --> 00:54:59,796
We joked that
it was just like the song,
1321
00:54:59,838 --> 00:55:01,506
the 12 Days of Christmas.
1322
00:55:02,549 --> 00:55:04,217
And you were each other's gift.
1323
00:55:04,259 --> 00:55:06,428
Couldn't have said it better,
1324
00:55:06,469 --> 00:55:08,346
but then there was
an emergency back home
1325
00:55:08,388 --> 00:55:09,973
before the 12th day,
1326
00:55:10,015 --> 00:55:11,016
and she had to leave...
1327
00:55:11,057 --> 00:55:13,810
on Christmas Eve, no less.
1328
00:55:13,852 --> 00:55:15,770
And then we lost touch.
1329
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:20,191
But you never forgot her.
1330
00:55:20,233 --> 00:55:22,110
Never.
1331
00:55:22,152 --> 00:55:23,236
So every winter,
1332
00:55:23,278 --> 00:55:25,655
I decorate
these trees in her honor,
1333
00:55:25,697 --> 00:55:27,907
to finish
the 12 days of Christmas
1334
00:55:27,949 --> 00:55:29,743
that we never
got to have together.
1335
00:55:33,413 --> 00:55:35,040
And...
1336
00:55:35,081 --> 00:55:38,001
you're spreading a little love
and light to others as well.
1337
00:55:40,378 --> 00:55:43,006
What do you hope
people take away from it?
1338
00:55:43,048 --> 00:55:46,634
You just said it. Hope.
1339
00:55:46,676 --> 00:55:48,011
I want to give others
the hope
1340
00:55:48,053 --> 00:55:50,388
that they can experience
what Rona and I had...
1341
00:55:50,430 --> 00:55:52,849
no matter how brief it was.
1342
00:55:56,311 --> 00:55:58,438
And isn't that
what we're all after?
1343
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,316
A little hope over the holidays?
1344
00:56:01,358 --> 00:56:02,984
I'm Adam Kade.
1345
00:56:03,026 --> 00:56:05,904
Thanks for watching.
1346
00:56:05,945 --> 00:56:07,364
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
1347
00:56:10,492 --> 00:56:13,495
So...
you think we got a story?
1348
00:56:13,536 --> 00:56:15,789
Definitely.
1349
00:56:15,830 --> 00:56:17,207
After you, my man.
1350
00:56:17,248 --> 00:56:18,833
Mom!
1351
00:56:18,875 --> 00:56:20,502
The park was lit up,
1352
00:56:20,543 --> 00:56:22,962
and Adam let me
watch an interview!
1353
00:56:24,422 --> 00:56:26,341
I'm gonna go work on ideas
for the Christmas concert.
1354
00:56:26,382 --> 00:56:27,801
- Okay!
- I'm Skylar.
1355
00:56:27,842 --> 00:56:29,427
I know who you are.
I love the show.
1356
00:56:29,469 --> 00:56:30,387
Thank you.
1357
00:56:32,514 --> 00:56:34,265
Thank you so much
for helping me out today.
1358
00:56:34,307 --> 00:56:38,061
I mean, it sounds like
you had a magical time.
1359
00:56:38,103 --> 00:56:39,938
Any other time
you need a hand.
1360
00:56:39,979 --> 00:56:42,107
I really hope
you take me up on it.
1361
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,402
I just might.
1362
00:56:46,444 --> 00:56:48,988
Um... listen.
1363
00:56:49,030 --> 00:56:52,367
We, um, we saw something
really special today,
1364
00:56:52,409 --> 00:56:54,160
and...
1365
00:56:54,202 --> 00:56:56,287
I would like
to show it to you.
1366
00:56:57,330 --> 00:56:59,791
Maybe after tonight's broadcast?
1367
00:56:59,833 --> 00:57:03,128
Um, R-Robbie is headed
to a friend's
1368
00:57:03,169 --> 00:57:04,796
for dinner tonight--
1369
00:57:04,838 --> 00:57:06,881
- Right, right.
- ...but I-I guess...
1370
00:57:06,923 --> 00:57:08,007
I could rearrange
some errands...
1371
00:57:08,049 --> 00:57:09,884
She's free tonight.
1372
00:57:11,386 --> 00:57:12,804
She says you're free.
1373
00:57:13,930 --> 00:57:14,764
Mm-hmm.
1374
00:57:14,806 --> 00:57:15,682
Uh-huh?
1375
00:57:15,723 --> 00:57:17,392
Okay! Great.
1376
00:57:20,979 --> 00:57:22,814
He does all this for her?
1377
00:57:22,856 --> 00:57:25,066
- Yeah.
- Oh...
1378
00:57:25,108 --> 00:57:26,401
So romantic.
1379
00:57:27,652 --> 00:57:29,362
Now that I think about it,
1380
00:57:29,404 --> 00:57:33,158
I guess you could've watched
my show tonight and seen it.
1381
00:57:33,199 --> 00:57:35,952
Then I wouldn't
be here with you.
1382
00:57:39,622 --> 00:57:43,960
My favorite park
at my favorite time of year.
1383
00:57:44,002 --> 00:57:45,253
Oh.
1384
00:57:45,295 --> 00:57:48,756
My client had to cancel today.
1385
00:57:48,798 --> 00:57:51,050
She said money was too tight,
1386
00:57:51,092 --> 00:57:53,970
and a haircut
felt like a luxury.
1387
00:57:54,012 --> 00:57:55,388
Mm.
1388
00:57:55,430 --> 00:57:58,474
The stories
you've been reporting on
1389
00:57:58,516 --> 00:57:59,934
gave me an idea.
1390
00:57:59,976 --> 00:58:02,270
I could...
1391
00:58:02,312 --> 00:58:05,940
give free haircuts
once a month
1392
00:58:05,982 --> 00:58:08,485
to anyone who needs one.
1393
00:58:10,153 --> 00:58:12,238
That's really wonderful.
1394
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,617
In between
everything that you do,
1395
00:58:15,658 --> 00:58:17,660
you still find
a way to help others.
1396
00:58:19,037 --> 00:58:21,623
Well, helping my community
matters to me.
1397
00:58:22,916 --> 00:58:25,668
It seems I'm not the only one.
1398
00:58:27,629 --> 00:58:30,381
Your stories
are helping people...
1399
00:58:30,423 --> 00:58:34,594
shining a light
on all the good around us.
1400
00:58:34,636 --> 00:58:36,387
Any anchor
would have done the same.
1401
00:58:37,639 --> 00:58:39,849
But would the old Adam
have done it?
1402
00:58:42,518 --> 00:58:44,562
You were right...
1403
00:58:44,604 --> 00:58:49,150
about me needing to find
the soul of a story,
1404
00:58:49,192 --> 00:58:51,361
and why it matters.
1405
00:58:51,402 --> 00:58:54,906
I didn't know
if you would take it to heart.
1406
00:58:54,948 --> 00:58:56,991
I didn't know
how much I needed to.
1407
00:58:58,910 --> 00:59:01,204
It's only the beginning.
1408
00:59:02,205 --> 00:59:03,665
How do you do that?
1409
00:59:03,706 --> 00:59:04,791
Do what?
1410
00:59:04,832 --> 00:59:06,417
You just...
1411
00:59:06,459 --> 00:59:09,128
make everything seem so...
1412
00:59:09,170 --> 00:59:10,630
possible,
1413
00:59:10,672 --> 00:59:12,715
even when I can't see it yet.
1414
00:59:15,385 --> 00:59:16,678
Sometimes,
1415
00:59:16,719 --> 00:59:18,972
you just have to believe
there's a way...

I got you. Here.

There we go.
1423
00:59:36,656 --> 00:59:38,116
Cold doesn't stand a chance.

Of course.
1431

So, um...
1432
01:00:09,564 --> 01:00:12,734
Todd asked me
to find more stories,
1433
01:00:12,775 --> 01:00:14,485
and I remember
you once said
1434
01:00:14,527 --> 01:00:17,697
that your clients kept you
connected to the community.
1435
01:00:17,739 --> 01:00:20,074
So you thought,
"What better place to look?"
1436
01:00:20,116 --> 01:00:23,161
Exactly.
1437
01:00:23,202 --> 01:00:25,496
It's been
right in front of me...
1438
01:00:25,538 --> 01:00:26,831
all along.
1439
01:00:29,417 --> 01:00:32,211
Well, allow me
to introduce you to...
1440
01:00:34,172 --> 01:00:39,344
♪ We're bringing joy
to your world ♪
1441
01:00:39,385 --> 01:00:41,471
♪ And a merry Christmas ♪
1442
01:00:41,512 --> 01:00:44,057
♪ Joy to your world ♪
1443
01:00:44,098 --> 01:00:45,933
More. Okay.
1444
01:00:45,975 --> 01:00:47,560
You could interview
Lynn's husband.
1445
01:00:47,602 --> 01:00:50,021
His woodworking shop
does cribs for Christmas.
1446
01:00:50,063 --> 01:00:51,606
Cribs? Awesome! Okay.
1447
01:00:51,648 --> 01:00:53,983
A-And my daughter Mykah's
piano teacher, Edith,
1448
01:00:54,025 --> 01:00:56,277
gives free concerts
of classic holiday songs.
1449
01:00:56,319 --> 01:00:57,987
Okay.
1450
01:00:58,029 --> 01:00:58,988
Yeah, M-Y-K-A...
1451
01:00:59,030 --> 01:01:00,448
- Okay, "M-Y-K-A--"
- Yeah.
1452
01:01:00,490 --> 01:01:02,784
Okay, I love that. I love that.
Okay, awesome, awesome.
1453
01:01:02,825 --> 01:01:05,119
Okay, Mykah, okay--
1454
01:01:05,161 --> 01:01:06,829
Okay!
1455
01:01:07,955 --> 01:01:10,458
All right, yes. Okay, okay.
1456
01:01:10,500 --> 01:01:11,376
Tell us more.
1457
01:01:11,417 --> 01:01:13,628
It's called scarf-bombing.
1458
01:01:13,670 --> 01:01:17,298
We take the excess scraps,
and we turn them into scarves,
1459
01:01:17,340 --> 01:01:19,675
and we tie them
onto lampposts, fences,
1460
01:01:19,717 --> 01:01:23,221
and gates all around town
to help those in need.
1461
01:01:23,262 --> 01:01:24,722
If you see a scarf
out in the wild,
1462
01:01:24,764 --> 01:01:27,392
you know someone cared enough
1463
01:01:27,433 --> 01:01:30,186
to leave
a little warmth behind.
1464
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:37,527
Just be sure
to save me a scone or two.
1465
01:01:38,736 --> 01:01:40,863
Merry Christmas
and happy holidays...
1466
01:01:40,905 --> 01:01:43,157
and at Christmas,
1467
01:01:43,199 --> 01:01:45,118
we must remember
to take care of those
1468
01:01:45,159 --> 01:01:47,036
who take care of others.
1469
01:01:47,078 --> 01:01:49,372
Muriel Bernhardt found
a passion for reading
1470
01:01:49,414 --> 01:01:50,665
early on,
1471
01:01:50,706 --> 01:01:52,667
and could not wait
to find a way to share it
1472
01:01:52,708 --> 01:01:54,001
with others,
1473
01:01:54,043 --> 01:01:56,879
and that's how Muriel Bernhardt
of Muriel's Books
1474
01:01:56,921 --> 01:01:59,757
turned her love of reading
into a holiday offer.
1475
01:01:59,799 --> 01:02:02,135
For every book purchased
in December,
1476
01:02:02,176 --> 01:02:06,681
Muriel donates three books
to local schools.
1477
01:02:08,015 --> 01:02:10,768
You look good
sitting at my old desk.
1478
01:02:10,810 --> 01:02:12,728
Do you miss it?
1479
01:02:12,770 --> 01:02:15,314
Ah, I think teaching
was the right thing for me.
1480
01:02:15,356 --> 01:02:19,026
The, uh, holiday shopping
go a little overboard?
1481
01:02:19,068 --> 01:02:20,653
Those are donations
from the viewers.
1482
01:02:20,695 --> 01:02:22,238
They've been flooding
the studio.
1483
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:23,489
People want to support
1484
01:02:23,531 --> 01:02:25,283
the charities
we've been covering.
1485
01:02:25,324 --> 01:02:27,702
Perhaps Chicago
will feel the same.
1486
01:02:27,744 --> 01:02:29,370
I haven't heard from them yet,
1487
01:02:29,412 --> 01:02:31,289
and to tell you the truth,
the Chicago job's
1488
01:02:31,330 --> 01:02:33,082
been the farthest thing
from my mind.
1489
01:02:33,124 --> 01:02:34,000
Adam!
1490
01:02:34,041 --> 01:02:35,376
There's a call for you.
1491
01:02:35,418 --> 01:02:36,586
You're gonna want to take it.
1492
01:02:36,627 --> 01:02:38,337
Thank you.
1493
01:02:38,379 --> 01:02:39,922
Uh, this is Adam Kade.
1494
01:02:39,964 --> 01:02:40,757
Hello?
1495
01:02:40,798 --> 01:02:42,300
Hi.
1496
01:02:42,341 --> 01:02:45,136
I'm calling about the story
of the man in the park
1497
01:02:45,178 --> 01:02:47,305
who once met a woman
in a red peacoat?
1498
01:02:47,346 --> 01:02:48,639
Okay. Yes.
1499
01:02:48,681 --> 01:02:50,141
Well, you see...
1500
01:02:50,183 --> 01:02:52,768
the woman in the red peacoat
is me!
1501
01:02:55,271 --> 01:02:58,608
Um, could you
hold one second, please?
1502
01:02:58,649 --> 01:03:00,276
There!
1503
01:03:00,318 --> 01:03:03,112
That's how it feels
when taking a risk works.
1504
01:03:04,447 --> 01:03:05,823
Well done, Adam.
1505
01:03:05,865 --> 01:03:08,034
I am so proud of you.
1506
01:03:08,075 --> 01:03:10,244
Now you go and finish the story.
1507
01:03:10,286 --> 01:03:12,205
Okay.
1508
01:03:15,833 --> 01:03:17,835
Hi.
1509
01:03:17,877 --> 01:03:20,213
I am so glad you called.
1510
01:03:22,757 --> 01:03:26,177
Your story
really connected with people,
1511
01:03:26,219 --> 01:03:28,137
but today's the last tree.
1512
01:03:28,179 --> 01:03:30,723
"12 drummers drumming."
1513
01:03:31,807 --> 01:03:33,017
And I'll start again
next Christmas.
1514
01:03:34,143 --> 01:03:36,437
Haven't enough Christmases
gone by?
1515
01:03:39,065 --> 01:03:40,775
Rona?
1516
01:03:40,817 --> 01:03:42,485
- Hi, Marty!
- Oh!
1517
01:03:42,527 --> 01:03:44,278
Oh!
1518
01:03:51,244 --> 01:03:52,662
Turning now
1519
01:03:52,703 --> 01:03:55,831
to a new chapter of a story
you may already know,
1520
01:03:55,873 --> 01:03:57,250
a few nights ago,
1521
01:03:57,291 --> 01:03:59,502
we introduced you to Marty,
1522
01:03:59,544 --> 01:04:01,128
a retired art teacher
1523
01:04:01,170 --> 01:04:03,548
who decorates trees
each December
1524
01:04:03,589 --> 01:04:06,133
in honor of a long-ago love,
1525
01:04:06,175 --> 01:04:09,804
and the hope that one day,
she might find her way back.
1526
01:04:09,846 --> 01:04:14,141
I'm happy to report
that tonight, she did.
1527
01:04:14,183 --> 01:04:15,643
Rona walked into that park,
1528
01:04:15,685 --> 01:04:19,188
and just like that,
what once was a memory
1529
01:04:19,230 --> 01:04:21,482
became a second chance.
1530
01:04:21,524 --> 01:04:24,944
There's a line Marty said
during our first interview
1531
01:04:24,986 --> 01:04:27,154
that I have not
been able to shake.
1532
01:04:27,196 --> 01:04:28,239
He said,
1533
01:04:28,281 --> 01:04:31,033
"I was the best version
of myself
1534
01:04:31,075 --> 01:04:32,910
when I was with her."
1535
01:04:32,952 --> 01:04:34,704
That stuck with me.
1536
01:04:34,745 --> 01:04:36,455
Maybe because it's rare
1537
01:04:36,497 --> 01:04:39,542
to meet someone
who doesn't just see you,
1538
01:04:39,584 --> 01:04:42,044
but sees the best in you
1539
01:04:42,086 --> 01:04:44,005
and helps you
to see it for yourself.
1540
01:04:44,046 --> 01:04:47,758
So, tonight, Marty and Rona...
1541
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,136
thank you for reminding us
1542
01:04:50,177 --> 01:04:54,515
that if we are lucky,
love finds a way.
1543
01:04:56,267 --> 01:04:59,020
That was
such a beautiful story.
1544
01:04:59,061 --> 01:05:00,605
I'm really glad you found it.
1545
01:05:00,646 --> 01:05:01,689
Thank you. Me too.
1546
01:05:03,274 --> 01:05:05,359
Listen, um...
1547
01:05:05,401 --> 01:05:07,320
I got you something.
1548
01:05:07,361 --> 01:05:08,863
Really?
1549
01:05:08,905 --> 01:05:10,865
Yes, sir.
1550
01:05:10,907 --> 01:05:12,158
Okay.
1551
01:05:12,199 --> 01:05:13,659
So, for as long
as I've known you,
1552
01:05:13,701 --> 01:05:15,077
you've gotten everyone
gift cards,
1553
01:05:15,119 --> 01:05:16,704
so what is this?
1554
01:05:16,746 --> 01:05:18,956
You mentioned
that the twins started...
1555
01:05:18,998 --> 01:05:20,499
...violin lessons.
1556
01:05:20,541 --> 01:05:23,586
Yes, and so I thought
those might come in handy.
1557
01:05:23,628 --> 01:05:25,588
That's very thoughtful.
1558
01:05:25,630 --> 01:05:28,549
Yeah, you should hear 'em
practicing "Silent Night."
1559
01:05:28,591 --> 01:05:29,675
Oh...
1560
01:05:29,717 --> 01:05:30,968
It's anything but.
1561
01:05:32,345 --> 01:05:34,013
Merry Christmas, Todd.
1562
01:05:34,055 --> 01:05:35,765
Merry Christmas, Adam.
1563
01:05:41,270 --> 01:05:43,773
Oh, thank you so much
for getting those groceries.
1564
01:05:43,814 --> 01:05:45,024
I've hardly had any time,
1565
01:05:45,066 --> 01:05:46,943
and I didn't want to order in
again tonight.
1566
01:05:46,984 --> 01:05:48,778
I'm just happy you asked.
1567
01:05:53,783 --> 01:05:54,951
Hello?
1568
01:05:54,992 --> 01:05:56,118
Hi.
1569
01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:58,120
Um...
1570
01:05:58,162 --> 01:06:01,791
so, I did something
kind of out of character.
1571
01:06:03,376 --> 01:06:06,128
I called in a vacation day
for tomorrow...
1572
01:06:06,170 --> 01:06:07,755
a real one this time.
1573
01:06:07,797 --> 01:06:09,757
Oh, good for you.
1574
01:06:09,799 --> 01:06:11,801
What are you gonna do with it?
1575
01:06:11,842 --> 01:06:13,469
Well, my parents throw
1576
01:06:13,511 --> 01:06:14,804
this holiday party
every year,
1577
01:06:14,845 --> 01:06:16,806
and I was thinking
1578
01:06:16,847 --> 01:06:19,100
that maybe you and Robbie
1579
01:06:19,141 --> 01:06:21,060
would like to come?
1580
01:06:21,102 --> 01:06:23,771
Oh, I'm sure
Robbie would love to,
1581
01:06:23,813 --> 01:06:26,315
but, um...
1582
01:06:26,357 --> 01:06:27,692
he'll be at his dad's.
1583
01:06:27,733 --> 01:06:29,151
Ah, okay.
1584
01:06:29,193 --> 01:06:32,113
Um, well,
if you're still free,
1585
01:06:32,154 --> 01:06:34,448
maybe you...
1586
01:06:34,490 --> 01:06:35,783
would like to come
1587
01:06:35,825 --> 01:06:38,119
as my, uh...
1588
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,746
uh, as my, um...
1589
01:06:40,788 --> 01:06:42,665
As your...
1590
01:06:44,709 --> 01:06:45,793
Date?
1591
01:06:47,044 --> 01:06:49,130
Can you hold on
for a second?
1592
01:06:49,171 --> 01:06:50,798
Sure.
1593
01:06:55,511 --> 01:06:58,764
Skylar, he's asking me
out on a date.
1594
01:06:58,806 --> 01:07:00,558
Why'd you go on mute?
Say yes!
1595
01:07:00,599 --> 01:07:02,101
I don't know if I'm ready.
1596
01:07:02,143 --> 01:07:05,396
He's making room for you
in his life.
1597
01:07:05,438 --> 01:07:06,814
Now is your chance
to do the same.
1598
01:07:06,856 --> 01:07:08,524
What could go wrong?
1599
01:07:08,566 --> 01:07:10,943
I don't know. Everything?
1600
01:07:10,985 --> 01:07:13,904
Maybe instead, ask yourself
what could go right.
1601
01:07:18,701 --> 01:07:19,910
Back.
1602
01:07:19,952 --> 01:07:21,203
So, um...
1603
01:07:21,245 --> 01:07:22,705
yes.
1604
01:07:22,747 --> 01:07:23,873
That'd be great.
1605
01:07:23,914 --> 01:07:25,416
- Great! Great!
- Yes.
1606
01:07:25,458 --> 01:07:27,793
I mean...
I was hoping you'd say that.
1607
01:07:27,835 --> 01:07:29,170
So, um...
1608
01:07:29,211 --> 01:07:31,047
pick you up at 6:00?
1609
01:07:31,088 --> 01:07:32,757
See you tomorrow.
1610
01:07:32,798 --> 01:07:34,341
See you
tomorrow.
1611
01:07:34,383 --> 01:07:36,302
- Good night.
- Good night.
1612
01:07:40,431 --> 01:07:42,600
Okay.
1613
01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:46,020
Was that Adam?
1614
01:07:46,061 --> 01:07:48,147
Yes.
1615
01:07:49,648 --> 01:07:51,484
Are you going on a date?
1616
01:07:52,777 --> 01:07:55,321
Um...
1617
01:07:55,362 --> 01:07:57,072
well...
1618
01:07:57,114 --> 01:07:58,574
It's okay, Mom.
1619
01:07:58,616 --> 01:07:59,992
I want you to be happy.
1620
01:08:04,288 --> 01:08:05,956
You're what makes me happy.
1621
01:08:05,998 --> 01:08:08,751
You can have
more than one happy.
1622
01:08:09,835 --> 01:08:12,088
When did you get so smart?
1623
01:08:12,129 --> 01:08:13,798
I've always been smart!
1624
01:08:24,100 --> 01:08:26,852
Welcome, welcome.
1625
01:08:26,894 --> 01:08:29,730
So your family doesn't
even know you're coming?
1626
01:08:29,772 --> 01:08:31,440
Well, I thought
it'd be fun to surprise them.
1627
01:08:31,482 --> 01:08:33,651
Adam?
1628
01:08:33,692 --> 01:08:35,069
Merry Christmas, Mom!
1629
01:08:35,110 --> 01:08:38,072
Oh!
1630
01:08:38,113 --> 01:08:39,698
I thought
you were working tonight.
1631
01:08:39,740 --> 01:08:41,534
Being here is more important.
1632
01:08:41,575 --> 01:08:43,744
Oh... Jack, look who's here!
1633
01:08:43,786 --> 01:08:46,288
Adam?
1634
01:08:46,330 --> 01:08:49,125
As seen on TV!
Bring it in, son.
1635
01:08:49,166 --> 01:08:50,292
Here you are.
1636
01:08:50,334 --> 01:08:53,796
Mom, Dad, this is Lucy.
1637
01:08:53,838 --> 01:08:56,966
Lucy, these are my parents,
Norma and Jack.
1638
01:08:57,007 --> 01:08:58,509
Nice to meet you.
1639
01:08:58,551 --> 01:08:59,760
Well, you get
one of these, too!
1640
01:08:59,802 --> 01:09:00,636
Oh!
1641
01:09:00,678 --> 01:09:02,054
Oh.
1642
01:09:02,096 --> 01:09:04,265
That was the year
I knit matching sweaters
1643
01:09:04,306 --> 01:09:05,266
for the whole family.
1644
01:09:05,307 --> 01:09:06,433
Of course,
1645
01:09:06,475 --> 01:09:07,852
Adam got a growth spurt
the week before,
1646
01:09:07,893 --> 01:09:08,811
and barely fit.
1647
01:09:08,853 --> 01:09:09,770
Oh!
1648
01:09:09,812 --> 01:09:10,938
She knitted me
1649
01:09:10,980 --> 01:09:12,857
this absurdly long one
the next year,
1650
01:09:12,898 --> 01:09:14,275
just in case I kept growing.
1651
01:09:15,943 --> 01:09:17,778
It had Dasher
right on the front.
1652
01:09:17,820 --> 01:09:19,071
It was my favorite.
1653
01:09:19,113 --> 01:09:21,532
I wore it so much
that the edges began to fray.
1654
01:09:21,574 --> 01:09:23,826
It is so wonderful
having you here.
1655
01:09:23,868 --> 01:09:25,911
I feel the same way, Mom.
1656
01:09:28,956 --> 01:09:32,293
Wait, you put out
a stocking for me?
1657
01:09:32,334 --> 01:09:33,919
But you didn't even know
I was coming home.
1658
01:09:33,961 --> 01:09:36,005
We put out a stocking
every year.
1659
01:09:36,046 --> 01:09:38,382
Makes us feel like
you're not so far away.
1660
01:09:38,424 --> 01:09:41,594
And... it's tradition.
1661
01:09:43,304 --> 01:09:44,805
Tradition is important.
1662
01:09:48,851 --> 01:09:51,020
Thank you.
1663
01:09:51,061 --> 01:09:52,438
For what, son?
1664
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,357
For being supportive of me,
1665
01:09:55,399 --> 01:09:58,485
even when I've had to let
too many Christmases go by.
1666
01:09:58,527 --> 01:10:00,571
I know it wasn't easy,
1667
01:10:00,613 --> 01:10:02,781
and I promise
I won't let it happen again.
1668
01:10:02,823 --> 01:10:04,950
This is your home, Adam.
1669
01:10:04,992 --> 01:10:07,995
Always has been,
always will be.
1670
01:10:10,915 --> 01:10:11,790
Cheers.
1671
01:10:21,508 --> 01:10:25,262
I never used to notice
nights like this.
1672
01:10:25,304 --> 01:10:27,222
They're beautiful,
1673
01:10:27,264 --> 01:10:30,601
when you take the moment
to look around.
1674
01:10:30,643 --> 01:10:32,394
I was always
too busy for that.
1675
01:10:32,436 --> 01:10:34,855
Always working.
1676
01:10:34,897 --> 01:10:39,652
I thought being busy
made me important...
1677
01:10:40,694 --> 01:10:43,405
...but then
I met you and Robbie...
1678
01:10:44,782 --> 01:10:46,992
...and it's like
1679
01:10:47,034 --> 01:10:49,036
my whole world slowed down...
1680
01:10:49,078 --> 01:10:50,996
in the best way.
1681
01:10:54,333 --> 01:10:55,668
For the longest time,
1682
01:10:55,709 --> 01:10:58,671
I thought it was my job
to stay outside the story.
1683
01:10:58,712 --> 01:11:01,507
Not get emotional, not get...
1684
01:11:02,758 --> 01:11:04,468
Close?
1685
01:11:04,510 --> 01:11:06,887
Exactly.
1686
01:11:06,929 --> 01:11:10,349
I didn't realize
how closed off I had become.
1687
01:11:14,436 --> 01:11:15,604
You know what's funny?
1688
01:11:15,646 --> 01:11:17,690
What?
1689
01:11:17,731 --> 01:11:20,985
I thought I was fine
on my own too.
1690
01:11:21,026 --> 01:11:24,738
I'd built this little island,
1691
01:11:24,780 --> 01:11:27,491
me and Robbie.
1692
01:11:31,328 --> 01:11:34,456
Now I look up...
1693
01:11:34,498 --> 01:11:36,000
and you're there.
1694
01:11:37,835 --> 01:11:39,920
You keep showing up...
1695
01:11:39,962 --> 01:11:41,797
for the both of us.
1696
01:11:44,091 --> 01:11:47,803
I didn't expect
any of this to happen.
1697
01:11:49,513 --> 01:11:51,557
Me neither...
1698
01:11:53,350 --> 01:11:54,977
...but I'm happy it is.
1699
01:11:56,311 --> 01:11:57,646
Me too.
1700
01:12:07,990 --> 01:12:10,034
Oh...
1701
01:12:11,535 --> 01:12:13,120
- Uh--
- That's okay.
1702
01:12:13,162 --> 01:12:15,664
Take the call.
1703
01:12:18,292 --> 01:12:21,462
Sorry, just, um, just give me
one second, okay?
1704
01:12:24,214 --> 01:12:25,799
Nathan, hi.
1705
01:12:25,841 --> 01:12:27,634
Adam! Good news--
1706
01:12:27,676 --> 01:12:30,137
you're making major waves,
especially with that, uh...
1707
01:12:30,179 --> 01:12:32,181
long-lost love piece.
1708
01:12:32,222 --> 01:12:34,433
They want you in the studio
for an interview.
1709
01:12:34,475 --> 01:12:37,811
That's fantastic. Well, when?
1710
01:12:37,853 --> 01:12:39,438
Tomorrow.
I know it's tight,
1711
01:12:39,480 --> 01:12:41,148
but this thing is moving fast.
1712
01:12:41,190 --> 01:12:43,817
I didn't realize
you'd be meeting with people
1713
01:12:43,859 --> 01:12:45,235
before the holidays.
1714
01:12:45,277 --> 01:12:46,695
Well, we want
the new anchor
1715
01:12:46,737 --> 01:12:49,323
to hit the ground running
top of the year.
1716
01:12:49,364 --> 01:12:51,200
So, can I tell everyone you'll
be on that morning flight?
1717
01:12:51,241 --> 01:12:54,119
Yes, absolutely.
1718
01:12:54,161 --> 01:12:56,955
See you in Chicago tomorrow.
1719
01:12:56,997 --> 01:12:58,707
This is a huge opportunity,
1720
01:12:58,749 --> 01:13:02,086
and I appreciate
the chance at it.
1721
01:13:02,127 --> 01:13:03,045
Thanks, Adam.
1722
01:13:03,087 --> 01:13:04,546
Okay, thank you.
1723
01:13:08,467 --> 01:13:10,177
Chicago?
1724
01:13:11,553 --> 01:13:13,389
Um...
1725
01:13:13,430 --> 01:13:18,394
yeah, there's an opening
for a lead anchor position.
1726
01:13:19,853 --> 01:13:22,564
So you're...
1727
01:13:22,606 --> 01:13:23,899
you're leaving?
1728
01:13:23,941 --> 01:13:25,150
It's just an interview.
1729
01:13:26,276 --> 01:13:27,778
Um...
1730
01:13:30,155 --> 01:13:33,242
Is that what everything's
been about?
1731
01:13:33,283 --> 01:13:34,868
What do you mean?
1732
01:13:36,286 --> 01:13:39,832
Oh. The new Adam.
1733
01:13:40,999 --> 01:13:43,794
Opening up on air...
1734
01:13:43,836 --> 01:13:48,382
the connections
you've made with people, um...
1735
01:13:48,423 --> 01:13:50,509
was it all just to get noticed
for a bigger job?
1736
01:13:50,551 --> 01:13:51,760
No. No.
1737
01:13:51,802 --> 01:13:53,345
No, that was all real.
1738
01:13:53,387 --> 01:13:55,139
You can trust me on that.
1739
01:13:56,473 --> 01:13:58,183
Then...
1740
01:13:58,225 --> 01:14:00,060
then why did
you keep this from me?
1741
01:14:01,728 --> 01:14:04,064
There was never the right time
to bring it up,
1742
01:14:04,106 --> 01:14:05,691
and-and-and maybe...
1743
01:14:05,732 --> 01:14:07,359
maybe I was afraid
of what it would mean.
1744
01:14:08,944 --> 01:14:11,363
So...
1745
01:14:11,405 --> 01:14:15,909
you let me believe
that this could be something.
1746
01:14:15,951 --> 01:14:17,703
You...
1747
01:14:17,744 --> 01:14:20,664
let Robbie believe.
1748
01:14:21,748 --> 01:14:23,167
This is something.
1749
01:14:23,208 --> 01:14:25,002
I promise you, it is.
1750
01:14:25,043 --> 01:14:27,087
Yeah, but...
1751
01:14:27,129 --> 01:14:29,089
if your interview goes well...
1752
01:14:30,591 --> 01:14:32,259
- ...you would leave.
- I don't know.
1753
01:14:33,302 --> 01:14:34,678
I don't know!
1754
01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:36,346
I knew this was a mistake.
1755
01:14:36,388 --> 01:14:37,556
No, wait, wait.
Lucy, Lucy! I--
1756
01:14:37,598 --> 01:14:39,766
I-It's not even me
I'm worried about.
1757
01:14:39,808 --> 01:14:41,560
I've been here before,
but...
1758
01:14:41,602 --> 01:14:42,978
but Robbie?
1759
01:14:44,438 --> 01:14:47,149
You made promises to him.
1760
01:14:47,191 --> 01:14:50,569
I meant them,
and I still do.
1761
01:14:52,070 --> 01:14:54,156
Can you keep them?
1762
01:14:57,075 --> 01:14:59,494
At least let me
explain it to him.
1763
01:15:02,706 --> 01:15:04,791
I am so sorry,
1764
01:15:04,833 --> 01:15:07,044
but I-I don't think
this is a good idea.
1765
01:15:08,045 --> 01:15:10,130
Good luck in Chicago.
1766
01:15:10,172 --> 01:15:12,799
Really. Uh...
1767
01:15:12,841 --> 01:15:16,803
I really hope it is
everything you're looking for.
1768
01:15:17,930 --> 01:15:19,139
Wait, Lucy.
1769
01:15:19,181 --> 01:15:21,141
Lucy, I...
1770
01:15:21,183 --> 01:15:22,518
Lucy!
1771
01:16:01,431 --> 01:16:03,392
Why can't Adam be here?
1772
01:16:03,433 --> 01:16:04,851
He was supposed to help me
1773
01:16:04,893 --> 01:16:07,521
with my video
for the Christmas concert.
1774
01:16:07,563 --> 01:16:09,273
I know, sweetheart.
1775
01:16:10,816 --> 01:16:13,777
I wish
things were different too.
1776
01:16:14,820 --> 01:16:16,822
But...
1777
01:16:16,863 --> 01:16:22,286
he has a big opportunity
in Chicago,
1778
01:16:22,327 --> 01:16:25,330
something he has been
looking towards for a long time,
1779
01:16:25,372 --> 01:16:27,916
and we both decided that...
1780
01:16:27,958 --> 01:16:29,918
it'd be better
1781
01:16:29,960 --> 01:16:32,129
if we give him space
to figure that out.
1782
01:16:33,422 --> 01:16:35,132
But why?
1783
01:16:35,173 --> 01:16:36,883
I don't want him to leave.
1784
01:16:47,144 --> 01:16:49,104
You know how, every year,
1785
01:16:49,146 --> 01:16:51,857
we pick out
the perfect Christmas tree?
1786
01:16:53,984 --> 01:16:58,780
And we bring it home,
and we decorate it,
1787
01:16:58,822 --> 01:17:01,491
and it stays
until the holidays are over?
1788
01:17:04,244 --> 01:17:07,205
Well, Adam was like our tree.
1789
01:17:09,916 --> 01:17:12,627
He came into our lives
to shine...
1790
01:17:12,669 --> 01:17:15,130
just at the right time,
1791
01:17:15,172 --> 01:17:18,133
and he brought us joy...
1792
01:17:18,175 --> 01:17:19,468
and memories...
1793
01:17:19,509 --> 01:17:23,138
but, like our tree,
he can't stay forever.
1794
01:17:24,890 --> 01:17:28,185
But I want him to.
1795
01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:32,397
Oh, honey...
1796
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:36,360
sometimes grown-up stuff
is complicated...
1797
01:17:37,903 --> 01:17:41,365
...but that doesn't
change the fact
1798
01:17:41,406 --> 01:17:43,492
that he cares about you,
1799
01:17:43,533 --> 01:17:49,081
and it definitely doesn't change
how proud I am of you.
1800
01:17:52,667 --> 01:17:55,796
Okay.
1801
01:17:59,383 --> 01:18:01,134
Oh!
1802
01:18:05,389 --> 01:18:07,682

1803
01:18:07,724 --> 01:18:09,476

1807
01:18:25,701 --> 01:18:27,452
Thank you
to my fifth-grade class
1808
01:18:27,494 --> 01:18:29,454
for the wonderful performance!
1809
01:18:29,496 --> 01:18:32,457
And that concludes
our annual Christmas concert.
1810
01:18:32,499 --> 01:18:33,750
I hope you all--
1811
01:18:33,792 --> 01:18:36,336
Wait, wait, wait!
Wait, wait, wait!
1812
01:18:36,378 --> 01:18:38,296
Wait, I'm sorry.
1813
01:18:38,338 --> 01:18:39,840
There's still
one more performance.
1814
01:18:39,881 --> 01:18:41,508
Adam!
1815
01:18:41,550 --> 01:18:42,467
Sorry.
1816
01:18:42,509 --> 01:18:44,553
Hey! Ready to get out there
1817
01:18:44,594 --> 01:18:45,679
and show 'em what you got?
1818
01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,014
But we never filmed a segment.
1819
01:18:48,056 --> 01:18:49,516
We don't need it.
1820
01:18:49,558 --> 01:18:51,101
What's a skill
1821
01:18:51,143 --> 01:18:53,186
that a news anchor
has to be good at?
1822
01:18:53,228 --> 01:18:55,313
Improvising
during live broadcasts.
1823
01:18:55,355 --> 01:18:56,398
Mm-hmm.
1824
01:18:56,440 --> 01:18:57,357
I have an idea!
1825
01:18:57,399 --> 01:18:58,692
Okay.
1826
01:18:58,734 --> 01:19:00,777
But... I'm nervous.
1827
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:04,239
You believed in me,
1828
01:19:04,281 --> 01:19:08,452
that I was capable of something
I didn't even see in myself.
1829
01:19:08,493 --> 01:19:13,373
Now, I'm here because
I believe in you, okay?
1830
01:19:13,415 --> 01:19:14,499
We can do this.
1831
01:19:14,541 --> 01:19:15,584
- Yeah!
- Come on.
1832
01:19:15,625 --> 01:19:16,752
Uh, we'll be right back.
1833
01:19:24,426 --> 01:19:25,594
- Adam Kade.
- Yes.
1834
01:19:25,635 --> 01:19:28,013
You're used to asking
the tough questions,
1835
01:19:28,054 --> 01:19:29,848
but tonight,
you're the one in the hot seat.
1836
01:19:29,890 --> 01:19:32,684
Uh-oh. Is it too late
to back out?
1837
01:19:32,726 --> 01:19:35,395
Not unless you could outrun
a fifth grader.
1838
01:19:36,980 --> 01:19:38,482
First question.
1839
01:19:38,523 --> 01:19:41,401
Your reporting used to be
all facts, no frosting.
1840
01:19:41,443 --> 01:19:42,861
What made you shake things up?
1841
01:19:42,903 --> 01:19:45,197
I met a certain 10-year-old
1842
01:19:45,238 --> 01:19:48,408
who asked me why I didn't report
on happier things.
1843
01:19:48,450 --> 01:19:50,827
That kid sounds like a genius!
1844
01:19:52,704 --> 01:19:54,122
He sure is,
1845
01:19:54,164 --> 01:19:55,665
and he helped me realize
1846
01:19:55,707 --> 01:19:57,876
that what I put out in the world
matters.
1847
01:19:57,918 --> 01:20:00,045
That's what made
all the difference.
1848
01:20:01,963 --> 01:20:04,424
Somewhere along the way,
1849
01:20:04,466 --> 01:20:07,344
I stopped just
reporting on this community.
1850
01:20:07,385 --> 01:20:09,679
I became a part of it.
1851
01:20:09,721 --> 01:20:13,433
The truth is, sometimes
you don't need facts--
1852
01:20:13,475 --> 01:20:15,268
you need connection.
1853
01:20:16,645 --> 01:20:18,814
Christmas
is right around the corner.
1854
01:20:18,855 --> 01:20:20,106
What's your wish this year?
1855
01:20:20,148 --> 01:20:23,026
And bonus question--
1856
01:20:23,068 --> 01:20:26,780
which of Santa's reindeer
would make the best news anchor?
1857
01:20:28,156 --> 01:20:31,451
Dasher, obviously.
He's got hustle.
1858
01:20:31,493 --> 01:20:34,621
And for your first question...
1859
01:20:34,663 --> 01:20:39,584
my wish is that other people
can learn what I did,
1860
01:20:39,626 --> 01:20:42,963
that Christmas isn't something
that just happens.
1861
01:20:43,004 --> 01:20:46,132
It's made
by choosing to see the good,
1862
01:20:46,174 --> 01:20:49,302
even if it's hard to find
at first.
1863
01:20:49,344 --> 01:20:51,054
And where
did you learn that from?
1864
01:20:51,096 --> 01:20:52,681
I learned that from you.
1865
01:20:54,307 --> 01:20:55,559
One final question,
1866
01:20:55,600 --> 01:20:57,477
and I think
it's gonna be a big scoop.
1867
01:20:57,519 --> 01:20:59,187
Ooh!
1868
01:20:59,229 --> 01:21:01,273
Any plans about your future
you want to share with everyone?
1869
01:21:08,405 --> 01:21:10,198
No scoop here.
1870
01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:12,158
Minneapolis is my home,
1871
01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:15,620
and I feel like
I am just getting started.
1872
01:21:15,662 --> 01:21:17,038
Sometimes...
1873
01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:19,249
the bigger story
isn't out there,
1874
01:21:19,291 --> 01:21:22,085
it's right in front of you,
1875
01:21:22,127 --> 01:21:25,547
and, um...
I don't want to miss it.
1876
01:21:28,675 --> 01:21:31,011
How will you know
when you see it?
1877
01:21:32,429 --> 01:21:35,849
It'll make you want to be
the best version of yourself.
1878
01:21:39,769 --> 01:21:41,146
Well, folks...
1879
01:21:41,187 --> 01:21:43,356
this seems like
a great place to wrap it up.
1880
01:21:43,398 --> 01:21:45,358
I'm Robbie Sullivan
from Elk River Elementary,
1881
01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:48,028
wishing everyone
a very Merry Christmas!
1882
01:21:51,489 --> 01:21:53,908
Whoo!
1883
01:21:53,950 --> 01:21:55,535
Good job.
1884
01:22:01,499 --> 01:22:03,710
Oh, honey!
1885
01:22:03,752 --> 01:22:05,295
I am so proud of you.
1886
01:22:05,337 --> 01:22:07,547
Thanks, Mom.
1887
01:22:07,589 --> 01:22:08,673
Oh...
1888
01:22:10,091 --> 01:22:11,343
Great job.
1889
01:22:11,384 --> 01:22:13,303
Now, go get your things.
1890
01:22:18,266 --> 01:22:21,895
Lucy, I am so, so sorry.
1891
01:22:23,188 --> 01:22:25,899
I never meant to hurt you.
1892
01:22:25,940 --> 01:22:27,067
Or Robbie.
1893
01:22:27,108 --> 01:22:30,695
I know. I'm sorry too.
1894
01:22:32,238 --> 01:22:34,074
But I don't
want to be the reason
1895
01:22:34,115 --> 01:22:35,742
you walk away from your dream.
1896
01:22:37,452 --> 01:22:41,373
I'm not walking away from it.
1897
01:22:42,499 --> 01:22:45,460
I am finally realizing...
1898
01:22:45,502 --> 01:22:47,712
just what it is.
1899
01:23:12,278 --> 01:23:14,072
What are you doing?
