00:01:55 >> Just flip the switch, sir.
00:01:57 >> Hey!
00:02:00 >> Hey, how about a toast to Christmas with my special eggnog?
00:02:03 No alcohol, just a little egg and a whole lot of nog.
00:02:08 >> Emily, you will love this.
00:02:10 He makes it every year.
00:02:12 >> You all have so many traditions.
00:02:14 >> One big happy family.
00:02:16 >> Merrill, your traditional toast?
00:02:18 >> Oh, of course, Adam.
00:02:19 To family and friends and the best holiday ever.
00:02:23 Christmas.
00:02:24 >> To Christmas!
00:02:27 [MUSIC]
00:02:33 >> Attention, please.
00:02:34 The Pacific Princess is now ready for boarding.
00:02:37 On behalf of our entire crew, welcome aboard.
00:02:40 Welcome to the Christmas cruise.
00:02:42 [MUSIC]
00:02:46 >> A small cabin on lower deck?
00:02:48 Oh, that's impossible.
00:02:50 Young man, there's obviously been a mistake.
00:02:53 Girls never travel less than first class.
00:02:55 >> Well, I'm sorry, Mrs. Duvall, but according to our records, you've reserved the...
00:02:59 >> Don't worry.
00:03:00 Your job is safe.
00:03:02 We promise not to kick up a fuss if you simply give us one of your available suites.
00:03:08 At the same price, of course.
00:03:11 >> At the same price?
00:03:12 >> Oh, Mother, they couldn't.
00:03:13 >> Possibly, that's too much to ask.
00:03:15 >> But you certainly don't expect us to pay for their mistake now, do you?
00:03:21 >> Well, Mother does have a point.
00:03:23 Surely there's something you can do for us.
00:03:25 After all, it is Christmas.
00:03:27 >> But it did happen.
00:03:29 As a result, we have an empty suite in which our lounge headliner should be staying for our Christmas cruise.
00:03:33 >> But there was a misunderstanding between her agents and my calendar.
00:03:37 She'll be here next week.
00:03:39 Well, look at it this way, sir.
00:03:42 We'll have two singers for the New Year's cruise.
00:03:45 >> Excuse me.
00:03:47 Did I understand you to say you're in the market for an entertainer?
00:03:50 >> Oh, no, no.
00:03:51 We just had a little, um...
00:03:52 >> I just happened to represent one of Europe's fastest rising young stars.
00:03:57 And, of course, she's my daughter, Heather Duval.
00:04:00 >> Well, thank you, but we're really...
00:04:02 >> You're lovely.
00:04:03 You're very lovely.
00:04:05 And she sings?
00:04:06 >> Well, I'm afraid my mother sometimes overestimates it.
00:04:09 >> She's a nightingale.
00:04:11 Oh, I can furnish you with a complete resume, the finest references.
00:04:16 Oh, she's thrilled millions.
00:04:18 >> Well, she's certainly thrilled me.
00:04:21 I don't want to tell you how to do your job, Miss McCoy, but if I were you, I'd sign her on the spot.
00:04:26 Merry Christmas.
00:04:29 >> And, of course, we'd be happy to accept whatever accommodations you had set aside for the no-show.
00:04:35 Assuming they're up to our standards, of course.
00:04:38 >> Oh.
00:04:40 >> Of course.
00:04:42 There you are.
00:04:43 >> Well, follow me and we'll sign the contract.
00:04:48 Uh, he'll tell you where these go.
00:04:52 >> Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:04:54 >> Well, watch where you're going.
00:04:56 >> This cello is so awkward.
00:04:58 >> Well, keep it on the leash.
00:05:01 This way, Mrs. Duval.
00:05:03 [ Music ]
00:05:15 >> The welcoming committee is all busy at the moment, but I'm Emily Steuben.
00:05:19 I'm the captain's wife.
00:05:21 >> [ Foreign Language Spoken ]
00:05:23 >> Very glad to meet you.
00:05:25 >> Oh, it's lovely to come aboard at night, but you can't find anything, huh?
00:05:29 >> Yes, I couldn't help but notice.
00:05:31 >> Is there anything I can do for you?
00:05:33 Show you your cabin or something?
00:05:35 >> I already found my cabin, but I can't find my friend.
00:05:40 >> Oh, I'm sorry.
00:05:41 I'm Carla Lucci.
00:05:42 It's just so nice to meet you.
00:05:44 >> You know, perhaps I can help you.
00:05:46 I have a lot of weight here, but what I have I can throw around with the best of them.
00:05:51 >> If he's a passenger, maybe he's checked in already.
00:05:54 >> I assume that it is a he that you're expecting.
00:05:57 >> Of course.
00:05:59 Well, not always, but sometimes I can tell.
00:06:03 >> We certainly were in the right place at the right time.
00:06:07 Don't you think my singing will throw just a little too much light on our operation, Mother?
00:06:10 >> No, it will make you the center of attention of every millionaire on this cruise.
00:06:14 You just find one who likes to play cards, and I'll go to work.
00:06:19 Here we are.
00:06:21 [ Music ]
00:06:25 >> Don't tell me about the cello.
00:06:27 [ Music ]
00:06:37 >> Oh, hello.
00:06:38 A fan of classical music.
00:06:40 >> Young man, my daughter and I have taken this trip in order to relax.
00:06:45 >> Is that your daughter?
00:06:47 She's beautiful.
00:06:48 >> That's because I have always surrounded her with beauty.
00:06:51 You and that cello could undo years of nurturing with a single flat C sharp.
00:06:56 >> Maybe if I played a --
00:06:57 >> Maybe if you didn't.
00:06:59 And I think I speak for the entire ship when I say thank you.
00:07:03 [ Music ]
00:07:08 >> So who's going to play Santa Claus this year?
00:07:10 Or does our new entertainer have to sing in a red suit and beard?
00:07:13 >> No, I hired a Santa through an agency, and I confirmed this morning.
00:07:16 Nothing can go wrong this time.
00:07:18 >> Mm-hmm.
00:07:19 And what are you asking the jolly old elf for this Christmas?
00:07:22 >> Peace on Earth and an end to world hunger.
00:07:25 And this gorgeous diamond watch I've had my eye on all year.
00:07:28 How about you?
00:07:30 >> Her.
00:07:32 May I pick this up for you?
00:07:34 Hi.
00:07:38 Excuse me.
00:07:39 >> Oh, may I help you?
00:07:40 >> Oh, I'm beyond help, trust me.
00:07:42 Last night the airline lost my luggage.
00:07:44 They say it's on its way to Morocco.
00:07:46 I'm just lucky I carried this aboard the plane myself.
00:07:49 It was a match set.
00:07:51 >> There are more of those?
00:07:52 >> No, this was a nice bag before the bus ran over it.
00:07:55 Unfortunately, I was holding on to it at the time.
00:07:58 >> Okay.
00:07:59 Are you one of our passengers?
00:08:01 >> I'm one of the crew.
00:08:02 >> No, you couldn't be.
00:08:03 I mean, I know the crew.
00:08:05 I'm Julie McCoy, the cruise director.
00:08:08 Maybe you have the wrong ship.
00:08:10 >> Pacific Princess, Christmas Cruise, Arthur Berkeley, you hired me yourself.
00:08:15 I'm your shipboard Santa.
00:08:17 Ho, ho, ho.
00:08:21 >> Will all visitors please sit in bars.
00:08:23 All visitors ashore, please.
00:08:25 >> Miss Lucci?
00:08:26 >> Oh, yes.
00:08:27 Where is he?
00:08:28 >> I'm sorry, but your friend hasn't come aboard.
00:08:30 >> Oh, no, but it's impossible.
00:08:32 I mean, he had a reservation.
00:08:35 >> I know that, but you see, we have him listed as a no-show.
00:08:39 Was he flying in from another city?
00:08:40 Maybe he missed his connecting flight.
00:08:42 >> No.
00:08:43 He lives here in Los Angeles.
00:08:45 I was the one who flew in from Rome for this very romantic vacation.
00:08:51 >> I'm sorry.
00:08:53 >> Yes, so am I.
00:08:55 [ Music ]
00:09:24 [ Music ]
00:09:30 >> Welcome aboard our annual Christmas Cruise.
00:09:33 We're off to the sunny Mexican resorts of Mazatlan and Acapulco.
00:09:36 If you brought your ski sweaters, snowshoes, and overcoats, you're over-packed.
00:09:40 Merry Christmas.
00:09:42 [ Music ]
00:10:05 >> Miss Duvall?
00:10:07 >> Yes.
00:10:08 >> You know, we hired you on your credentials, which seem impressive,
00:10:12 but I'm not personally familiar with your particular style.
00:10:17 >> The captain didn't seem to have any objections.
00:10:20 >> Yes, well, the captain's only the captain, and I'm the cruise director,
00:10:24 and it's my responsibility to make sure that, oh, the dance instructor can dance,
00:10:29 the shuffleboard instructor can shuffle.
00:10:31 >> And the singer can sing.
00:10:33 >> Hmm.
00:10:35 >> Why don't you say we go find a piano and try a few scales?
00:10:39 >> Well, I'd love to, Julie, but if I'm going to sing my best,
00:10:42 I really have to look my best in an hour in the sun.
00:10:45 You understand.
00:10:47 >> All right, I have to check on our Santa anyway.
00:10:49 One hour in the lounge.
00:10:51 >> Fine.
00:10:54 >> Mr. Burr Park?
00:10:55 Yes, who should I say is calling?
00:10:57 Wall Street.
00:10:58 Mr. Parks, your stockbroker.
00:11:01 >> Hello, yes.
00:11:02 >> Oh, Marshall, yes.
00:11:05 Buy 2 million shares.
00:11:07 That's right.
00:11:09 Thank you, Asa.
00:11:11 [ Music ]
00:11:37 >> I think there's another one over there.
00:11:52 >> Oh, I'm sorry.
00:11:53 I'm so sorry.
00:11:54 >> You're a public menace.
00:11:55 You know that.
00:11:56 >> It was the wind.
00:11:57 >> What happens next?
00:11:59 Does the hotel come flying at me over dinner?
00:12:02 >> What can I say?
00:12:03 What can I do for you?
00:12:05 >> Give me the chance to shout the man overboard.
00:12:08 [ Music ]
00:12:31 >> Mr. Berkeley, I see you found your cabin all right.
00:12:33 >> Yeah, yeah, it's fine.
00:12:35 It's fine.
00:12:36 But the window's blown open.
00:12:38 >> Oh, no, of course not.
00:12:40 They're welded shut.
00:12:41 That's a safety feature.
00:12:42 Someone might accidentally fall out.
00:12:46 Oh, here.
00:12:47 I brought your Santa suit for you.
00:12:49 It's the smallest one we have.
00:12:51 I'm afraid you're going to need a little extra padding.
00:12:54 Usually our Santas are larger.
00:12:57 >> Well, I've lost a lot of weight recently.
00:12:59 Prison food will do that to a person.
00:13:01 >> Prison food?
00:13:03 >> That's a long story.
00:13:05 >> I have the time.
00:13:07 >> Well, it all started with the bank robbery.
00:13:09 >> Bank robbery?
00:13:10 The agency didn't mention --
00:13:11 >> Well, it was all a terrible mix-up.
00:13:13 You see, the real crooks use a stolen car.
00:13:15 Mine.
00:13:16 And my fiance could explain this all to you if she were here.
00:13:19 She broke off the engagement right after my house was foreclosed.
00:13:23 >> Because of the prison sentence?
00:13:25 >> Because I was fired.
00:13:26 You get vacation, you get sick leave.
00:13:28 Everybody gets so funny when you ask for prison leave.
00:13:31 But they all realize it was a big mistake.
00:13:34 >> You've had a hard life.
00:13:36 >> I've had a hard year.
00:13:38 You know, you wouldn't know it to look at me now, but last year I was voted most valuable salesman.
00:13:43 I had a beautiful sports car, a home with a pool, a girl who loved me.
00:13:47 What have I got now?
00:13:49 A part-time job as a seagull in Santa and a window that won't open.
00:13:57 But I don't want to bore you with my sad story.
00:14:00 Thanks for the soup.
00:14:02 >> Your first appearance is at dinner tonight.
00:14:04 There's a schedule in the box.
00:14:07 >> Say, how deep is the ocean out here?
00:14:10 >> Several hundred feet when you get this far from shore.
00:14:16 >> That should be deep enough.
00:14:21 >> Well, I really don't know what to suggest, Emily.
00:14:24 You certainly know Merrill as well as I do.
00:14:26 >> I have looked all over Los Angeles and Beverly Hills.
00:14:29 Shirts, socks, ties, aftershave.
00:14:32 It just has to be so special.
00:14:34 Do you think that he would like to have a ship in a bottle?
00:14:38 His own little SS stooping?
00:14:40 >> Well, the crew usually gives him something nautical every year.
00:14:44 It's kind of a tradition.
00:14:47 >> Oh, that word again.
00:14:49 Everybody's got a tradition with Merrill but me.
00:14:52 >> I'm sure he'll love whatever you give him.
00:14:55 >> But what?
00:14:57 >> Well, I can book you on a small private plane from Mazatlan to Mexico City.
00:15:01 >> And from there?
00:15:02 >> From there you can fly just about anywhere you want.
00:15:05 >> I want to go back home to Italy.
00:15:08 >> Home? Carla, the cruise has just begun.
00:15:12 >> I didn't come here for the cruise.
00:15:15 I came here to be with David.
00:15:18 I feel miserable, angry, foolish.
00:15:23 Desperate.
00:15:25 >> This man you're waiting for, he must be very special.
00:15:29 >> Special? Yes, until now.
00:15:33 I met him three years ago in this very boat.
00:15:36 And that's why we were meeting here now.
00:15:39 >> You and Mr. Morgan?
00:15:41 >> Yes.
00:15:43 You see, I never was in love before.
00:15:46 I mean, really in love.
00:15:49 >> And he felt the same?
00:15:52 >> Of course he did, and I believed him.
00:15:54 I still do.
00:15:57 I guess we never learn.
00:16:02 >> But he was married.
00:16:04 His wife was an invalid, confined to bed so he couldn't leave her.
00:16:10 >> And now, after all these years?
00:16:12 >> Well, now he writes to Carla and says he absolutely has to see her.
00:16:16 So she's here, and he's not.
00:16:20 I just think that's so sad.
00:16:22 And on Christmas, I feel so sorry for her.
00:16:27 >> You know, I feel sorry for anybody that doesn't have someone as wonderful as you in their life.
00:16:33 You care about people, their feelings.
00:16:37 >> And I care about you, Meryl.
00:16:47 >> What would you like for Christmas?
00:16:51 >> To spend the rest of my life with you.
00:16:55 [ Music ]
00:17:04 >> Attention, passengers.
00:17:06 Dinner is now being served in the Coral Dining Room.
00:17:11 >> I was expecting a romantic dinner for two,
00:17:14 and instead I'm invited to join a happy party with a captain.
00:17:18 I hope I will not spoil it.
00:17:21 There's a place for you, and you're going to sit in it, and that's that, and not another word.
00:17:25 All right.
00:17:26 I won't argue with someone married to power.
00:17:29 >> You must be Signorina Lucci.
00:17:30 >> Oh, let's forget about Signorina, please.
00:17:33 Tonight, I only answer to Carla.
00:17:36 And this is my husband, Meryl.
00:17:38 >> Hello.
00:17:39 >> And you've met Vicki.
00:17:40 And this is Ace Evans, our chief purser.
00:17:44 Adam Bricker, the ship's doctor.
00:17:45 >> Pleasure.
00:17:46 >> I'm very pleased to meet all of you.
00:17:48 >> My wife tells me you're from Rome.
00:17:50 >> Oh, yes.
00:17:52 Does it show?
00:17:54 >> One of my ex-wives was from Italy, I think.
00:17:57 >> Oh, Pete, it was me.
00:18:00 I'm sure you would have remembered.
00:18:09 >> You know, it must be the ocean air.
00:18:11 I could eat a horse.
00:18:12 >> Have two, sweetheart.
00:18:13 Our food comes with the room.
00:18:15 >> You should be an agent.
00:18:17 >> Oh, no, no.
00:18:18 That works too honest.
00:18:21 Well, honest enough that it doesn't interest me.
00:18:30 Found anything worthwhile yet that's not on the menu?
00:18:37 >> All we need is one terrible card player with a lot of money.
00:18:44 >> I'll know him when I see him.
00:18:46 You know that.
00:18:47 >> Oh, yes.
00:18:48 You've got a sixth sense when it comes to money.
00:18:51 Even as a little girl, when you wandered off, it was always in the direction of the Bank of England.
00:19:03 >> There you are, sir.
00:19:09 >> Not bad as last meals go.
00:19:21 >> Julie, something wrong?
00:19:23 >> Well, the captain's expecting Santa to make an appearance at dinner tonight.
00:19:27 I can't find him.
00:19:28 He promised to be dressed and ready.
00:19:30 First the singer, now the Santa.
00:19:33 >> Can't you find someone to stand in for him tonight?
00:19:36 >> Like who?
00:19:37 Who's around?
00:19:38 Who isn't already at dinner?
00:19:40 Oh.
00:19:42 >> Julie!
00:19:43 No, no, no.
00:19:44 Come on.
00:19:45 Julie, Santa Claus?
00:19:49 It must feel strange not spending Christmas with your family.
00:19:52 >> Oh, it's such a big family.
00:19:55 Juliana, Maria, Fernanda, Maddalena, Teresa, and Carolina.
00:19:59 They won't even notice that I am away.
00:20:02 >> Well, you're welcome to share the holidays with us.
00:20:05 >> You're very kind.
00:20:06 You're all very kind, but I'm leaving the ship tomorrow and I'm flying home.
00:20:11 Perhaps it will be a little bit late for Christmas, but I'm sure there will be plenty of pasta left over for me.
00:20:18 >> Leaving with so much yet to see?
00:20:21 >> I saw it all many years ago with a friend.
00:20:27 I should have left it a memory.
00:20:35 I'm terribly sorry.
00:20:36 I have packing to do.
00:20:38 Excuse me, please.
00:20:40 I'm sorry.
00:20:42 >> Miss Lucci?
00:20:43 >> Carlo.
00:20:44 >> Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:20:46 Merry Christmas, everybody.
00:20:48 Merry Christmas.
00:20:49 >> Isaac?
00:20:50 >> Yes, yes, I just flew in from the North Pole.
00:20:53 Boy, am I reindeer tired.
00:20:55 Ho, ho, ho.
00:20:57 But seriously, folks, I've never seen a ship so full of happily married men.
00:21:02 >> Oh, you'll find our pigeon all right.
00:21:04 In all these years, I've never once seen you feel --
00:21:07 >> I won't let you down.
00:21:09 That is, if that nut with the cello leaves me alone long enough.
00:21:13 He added something really terrible to Beethoven in an early life.
00:21:21 >> Oh, what a mercy.
00:21:25 >> Why?
00:21:30 >> You plucked the G string of my heart.
00:21:34 It's from him.
00:21:37 >> These two, they're all from him.
00:21:40 He must have hopped his cello to afford all these.
00:21:47 >> I only wish.
00:22:00 >> Well, there it is.
00:22:02 Davy Jones' locker.
00:22:04 One jump and I'm asleep in the deep.
00:22:08 20,000 leagues under the sea.
00:22:11 Friend of Charlie the Tuna.
00:22:14 Adrift on the kelp bed of life.
00:22:17 Permanently waterlogged.
00:22:19 An ad for the wet look.
00:22:22 Shark bait.
00:22:24 >> So!
00:22:29 There you are.
00:22:30 >> Never sneak up on anyone like that.
00:22:33 You almost gave me heart failure.
00:22:35 >> This would have saved a lot of trouble.
00:22:37 >> You know that Julie has been looking all over for you?
00:22:39 You were supposed to be in the dining room tonight.
00:22:41 >> I'm sorry.
00:22:42 I've had a lot on my mind.
00:22:43 Did she find someone to fill in for me?
00:22:45 >> I don't always dress like this.
00:22:50 What are you doing out here anyway?
00:22:52 >> Just getting the feel of this ship.
00:22:55 Say, is the ocean always so far from the deck?
00:22:58 >> Well, it's a big ship.
00:23:00 >> Yeah, and a big drop.
00:23:02 >> That's why we have railings.
00:23:04 >> Good thinking.
00:23:05 Good thinking.
00:23:06 >> Yeah, listen, I have to go back to the bar.
00:23:09 Do us all a favor.
00:23:10 Check with Julie to see when she needs you next.
00:23:12 Okay?
00:23:13 >> Okay.
00:23:23 >> So afraid of heights.
00:23:46 >> Excuse me.
00:23:47 Would you like to dance?
00:23:48 >> Sorry, I'm waiting for somebody.
00:23:51 >> Something tells me you're not him.
00:23:59 >> Read them and weep.
00:24:02 Three sevens.
00:24:05 >> A full house.
00:24:08 Oh, my, this seems to be my lucky night.
00:24:11 >> You got to watch my mother, Isaac.
00:24:13 She'll take you for every goldfish you have if you're not careful.
00:24:16 >> Oh, well, lucky for me, I'm loaded with goldfish.
00:24:20 >> Oh, relax, darling.
00:24:21 We're only playing for a dime of fish.
00:24:24 >> We are?
00:24:25 >> Unless you'd rather it were a dollar.
00:24:27 >> No, no, no, no, no, no, but --
00:24:29 >> Fine, fine, fine.
00:24:31 Your deal.
00:24:33 >> Mr. Vaughn.
00:24:35 >> Look, I appreciate the flowers.
00:24:37 That was a nice thought.
00:24:39 But you must have spent your last dollar on those, and I'm truly not interested.
00:24:42 >> My last dollar?
00:24:43 Ah, no, no, there's more where that came from.
00:24:47 >> Well, you might at least have spent it on more appropriate clothing.
00:24:51 >> I wasn't sure what to wear.
00:24:53 I've never been on a ship before, one that wasn't my own, I mean.
00:24:57 >> You have your own ship?
00:24:59 >> Wellington Davis Rothmeier, the fourth.
00:25:02 >> I fold.
00:25:04 Of Rothmeier Publishing, six major newspapers, three monthly magazines,
00:25:09 the only publishing house ever to have had all ten of the top ten bestsellers.
00:25:15 >> You're that Rothmeier?
00:25:17 >> I'm afraid my father is that Rothmeier.
00:25:19 I guess I will be someday.
00:25:21 >> Wellington Davis Rothmeier, the fourth.
00:25:24 The flowers you sent me, you didn't sign your name.
00:25:26 >> Well, there's so much of it to get on one of those little cards they give you.
00:25:30 I really want to apologize for all the trouble I've caused you in such a short time.
00:25:34 Would you let me make it up to you over supper?
00:25:37 >> Sorry, I'm not hungry.
00:25:38 >> Then maybe cocktails?
00:25:40 >> Look, you don't seem like a bad sort, but I'm truly not interested, so let's leave it at that and try and be friends, okay?
00:25:47 I think I'll turn in now.
00:25:49 Night, Mother.
00:25:53 >> Was it something I said?
00:25:55 >> Trust me, you said all the right things.
00:25:59 [ Music ]
00:26:10 >> Oh, Merrill!
00:26:15 I hope I'm not interrupting.
00:26:17 >> Nonsense.
00:26:18 I always have time for you.
00:26:20 >> Well, I always think you might turn your head to talk to me for a second and we'll end up in China or somewhere.
00:26:25 >> Oh, no. I'm sure the navigator would discover the error long before China.
00:26:31 >> Oh, I thought you'd like to read this cable you just received.
00:26:35 >> Thank you.
00:26:36 >> It's from Mr. Morgan, Carl Alucci's friend.
00:26:39 He missed the ship in Los Angeles, but he's flown ahead and he'll be boarding in Mazatlan.
00:26:45 >> Anything else?
00:26:46 >> Well, I just signed it sincerely.
00:26:49 Should I tell her or should I let it be a surprise?
00:26:53 >> She'll be more surprised if she leaves the ship before he arrives.
00:26:57 >> Oh, well.
00:26:58 >> Yes, I'd tell her.
00:26:59 >> Well, you could, but why don't I do that?
00:27:01 You're so busy finding Mexico and all.
00:27:03 >> Good idea.
00:27:05 [ Music ]
00:27:12 >> How could you say no last night?
00:27:15 How could you turn down the king of the publishing world?
00:27:18 >> He's not the king, Mother.
00:27:20 >> Well, the heir to the throne.
00:27:22 >> He's our perfect patron.
00:27:24 >> Not perfect yet, but he will be when I get through with him.
00:27:31 So, you stick to what you do best.
00:27:37 I'll do what I do best.
00:27:39 Have a nice day.
00:27:43 My daughter, all right.
00:27:46 [ Music ]
00:27:51 >> Welcome to Sensational Mother Blonde.
00:27:54 Swim, sun, siesta, or shop.
00:27:56 Remember, only three more shopping days till Christmas.
00:28:00 [ Music ]
00:28:16 >> Oh, Carla.
00:28:18 Oh, Carla, you can't go.
00:28:20 >> I have to, Emily.
00:28:21 My mind is made up.
00:28:22 I want to go away.
00:28:24 The only thing I can do now is to go home.
00:28:26 >> It would be a terrible mistake.
00:28:28 >> I think it's best.
00:28:29 Goodbye, and thank you for everything.
00:28:32 >> Carla.
00:28:34 >> David.
00:28:36 Where have you been?
00:28:37 What happened?
00:28:39 I thought you were never coming.
00:28:41 >> It's all right.
00:28:42 It's all right.
00:28:43 I'm here now.
00:28:44 >> Oh, David.
00:28:45 I was sorry to hear about your wife.
00:28:48 Is there anything I can do for you?
00:28:50 >> Nothing.
00:28:51 Just seeing you now, that's all I need.
00:28:54 [ Music ]
00:29:01 >> Well, I'll have your bags taken back to your cabin for you.
00:29:05 [ Music ]
00:29:17 [ Music ]
00:29:25 >> Nothing looks like your father.
00:29:28 >> I don't know.
00:29:29 That ceramic bowl back there had his smile.
00:29:33 >> I could have my picture taken for him.
00:29:35 >> No, no, Emily.
00:29:37 Don't worry.
00:29:38 You're going to find just the right thing.
00:29:41 >> What are you getting him for Christmas?
00:29:43 >> Well, I always paint him a picture.
00:29:45 >> Oh, another tradition.
00:29:48 >> Last semester I took an art course, so I might even hang this one up.
00:29:52 He always says that my presents are the ones he most looks forward to each year.
00:29:57 >> Oh.
00:29:59 >> I -- no.
00:30:01 [ Music ]
00:30:27 >> Oh, hi.
00:30:28 >> Well, I hope to stumble into you today.
00:30:31 >> Oh, good morning, Welly.
00:30:33 >> Welly?
00:30:34 >> You don't mind if I call you that, do you?
00:30:36 Instead of Wellington Davis Rothenmeier the Fourth.
00:30:40 >> No, no, please.
00:30:42 Welly sounds like -- like you like me.
00:30:45 >> Oh, well, don't let the sound of it fool you.
00:30:48 I know your type, the slick, handsome playboy who thinks he can buy his way into my heart with a checkbook and a gold card.
00:30:56 >> I think I'm handsome.
00:30:59 >> So how did your father become king of the publishing world, anyway?
00:31:03 >> Well, it's kind of an interesting story.
00:31:05 >> Let me judge that for myself.
00:31:07 >> You see, he was a gambler.
00:31:09 >> Oh, I hate gambling.
00:31:11 >> Well, really it's a gentleman's sport, I suppose.
00:31:15 >> Yeah, I suppose.
00:31:18 You were saying, your father?
00:31:20 >> Oh, right.
00:31:23 My father was probably the worst gambler in Philadelphia.
00:31:27 But one night he dreamed of the number five.
00:31:29 Five ducks, five lakes, five boats, everything in fives.
00:31:33 >> And?
00:31:34 >> He was sure it was an omen.
00:31:36 So he went to the bank and he withdrew his life savings, $5,000, and he took the number five bus to the racetrack.
00:31:42 >> Let me guess, window five.
00:31:44 >> And he put the money on the number five horse in the fifth race, 55 to one, a horse named Nickelodeon.
00:31:50 Nickel five.
00:31:52 >> Got it.
00:31:53 And the horse won.
00:31:54 >> He finished fifth.
00:31:56 Father lost everything, but that was the day he met my mother, the princess of publishing.
00:32:02 They married, he joined the family business, and, well, the rest is history.
00:32:06 >> Fascinating.
00:32:08 Well, there are some better shops I'd like to look into in town, so it's been nice talking to you, Nancy.
00:32:13 >> Wait, could I -- may I walk with you?
00:32:19 >> Well, okay.
00:32:22 But don't even think of buying me anything, although we might look into a tuxedo for you.
00:32:28 I love a man in a tux.
00:32:30 [ Music ]
00:32:36 >> 14, carry the one.
00:32:41 You owe me $124 as it now stands.
00:32:46 Another hand.
00:32:48 >> I'm sorry, Mrs. Duvall, but we're really not allowed to play for money, especially with the passengers.
00:32:54 I didn't understand that's what we were doing last night, and I only played today to let you win back your 60 cents.
00:33:01 >> I understand, Isaac, I really do.
00:33:04 And I'm usually so unlucky.
00:33:06 This has just been an odd streak.
00:33:09 What do you say we cut the cards, double or nothing?
00:33:12 I'll lose and we'll be even.
00:33:15 >> And if you win?
00:33:16 >> Oh, I won't.
00:33:18 I'm terrible at this.
00:33:20 [ Music ]
00:33:29 >> Queen of diamonds.
00:33:30 >> What does that tell you?
00:33:34 Oh, king of clubs.
00:33:36 Oh, my.
00:33:38 Now you owe me $248.
00:33:43 Oh, let's do it again.
00:33:45 This streak of mine can't last forever.
00:33:48 Maybe if I go first this time.
00:33:52 >> Okay.
00:33:54 [ Music ]
00:34:07 >> Oh, what a wonderful day.
00:34:09 Don't you dare to miss the boat ever again, my love.
00:34:13 I never dreamed that little cafe with the green corn tamales would still be there.
00:34:17 >> Some things never change, and that's very nice.
00:34:21 Others do change.
00:34:25 And that's very nice, too.
00:34:29 >> You know, it's hard for me to believe I'm really seeing you again.
00:34:32 I got there just as the ship was leaving.
00:34:35 I tell you, it was such a helpless feeling knowing, hoping you were on that ship and not being able to get to you.
00:34:41 You are here now.
00:34:43 That's all that matters.
00:34:45 That's all that ever really mattered to me.
00:34:49 [ Music ]
00:34:57 >> I think they're calling us.
00:35:00 >> Pretty.
00:35:02 [ Music ]
00:35:07 >> We hope you enjoyed your day in Mazatlan.
00:35:09 We hope you enjoyed it.
00:35:11 Be sure to join us this evening at the International Lounge for the song signings of Miss Heather DuVal.
00:35:16 [ Music ]
00:35:19 >> When my baby, when my baby smiles at me, I go to Rio, nature narrow, and I am free at last.
00:35:28 What a blast.
00:35:30 [ Music ]
00:35:37 >> When my baby, when my baby smiles at me, I go to Rio, nature narrow, my, oh, me, oh.
00:35:46 I go wild and then I have to do the samba and the bamba.
00:35:52 Now she's not the kind of person with the passionate persuasion for dancing or romancing.
00:35:59 But I give in to the rhythm and my feet follow the beating of my heart.
00:36:06 [ Music ]
00:36:09 >> Where did Julie find her?
00:36:11 >> Well, she auditioned her this afternoon, but she said that dad really deserves all the credit.
00:36:15 According to her, he has quite a knack for talent.
00:36:17 [ Music ]
00:36:19 >> When my baby smiles at me, the sun lights up my life and I am free at last.
00:36:27 What a blast.
00:36:29 When my baby smiles at me, I go to Rio.
00:36:34 [ Applause ]
00:36:37 [ Music ]
00:36:47 >> It was great.
00:36:48 >> Thank you.
00:36:49 >> It was wonderful.
00:36:50 >> Oh, thanks.
00:36:51 See you later.
00:36:52 >> Why, Wally, you look nice.
00:36:54 >> It was wonderful.
00:36:55 When you sing, my heart stops.
00:36:56 >> Well, we'd better look into a pacemaker for you.
00:36:58 Wouldn't want to lose you over a chorus of jingle bells.
00:37:02 See you in a moment.
00:37:08 A midnight supper sounds great.
00:37:10 I reserved a special table for us.
00:37:26 >> This is for us?
00:37:29 >> I wanted to make it as special as I could.
00:37:45 I took the liberty of ordering for both of us.
00:37:48 >> It's too dark out here to read the menu anyway.
00:37:50 >> Not too dark to see how beautiful you are.
00:37:53 >> That sounds suspiciously like a line.
00:37:55 >> I'm sorry.
00:37:56 It wasn't.
00:37:57 I don't know any lines, really.
00:37:59 >> It's okay.
00:38:00 It's okay.
00:38:01 If it was a line, it was a nice line.
00:38:02 I liked it.
00:38:06 Wally, with all the girls on this ship, you could be having supper with tonight.
00:38:10 Why me?
00:38:12 >> You'd laugh if I told you.
00:38:14 >> Try me.
00:38:16 >> When I was seven, my sister had a picture book all about a princess who went around rescuing kings and knights and princes in distress.
00:38:25 >> She was liberated.
00:38:27 >> Well, you look just like her.
00:38:29 Just like the pictures in that book.
00:38:31 >> And are you a prince in need of rescuing, Wally?
00:38:34 >> I'm a very shy person.
00:38:37 I don't meet people easily.
00:38:39 When I saw you, you looked like someone I already knew.
00:38:43 Already liked very much.
00:38:45 >> Well, if you see any dragons, I'm your girl.
00:38:49 >> That's a promise.
00:38:52 [applause]
00:39:00 [music]
00:39:28 >> Ah, this is our first Christmas together.
00:39:30 The first of many.
00:39:33 >> How did I get through holidays without you?
00:39:36 All those turkeys I stuffed without you.
00:39:38 >> Turkey?
00:39:39 For Christmas?
00:39:40 No, turkey's for Thanksgiving.
00:39:42 >> Don't you like turkey for Christmas?
00:39:44 >> Well, it's not that I don't like it.
00:39:45 It's just that we usually have goose.
00:39:47 Vicki loves it.
00:39:50 Of course, if you want turkey --
00:39:52 >> Oh, no, no.
00:39:53 Traditions are so important.
00:39:55 They're so traditional, you know.
00:39:59 [music]
00:40:06 >> It's like no time has passed.
00:40:09 You remember this song?
00:40:10 >> I sure do.
00:40:12 Every time I've heard it since, I've thought of you.
00:40:15 >> And every time I thought of you, I heard this melody in my head.
00:40:21 >> I really regret all the time we've spent apart.
00:40:25 I wanted to make it up to you on this cruise, make up for all that lost time.
00:40:30 >> No time is lost.
00:40:33 If we can stay together now, hold me tight forever, David.
00:40:41 Forever, my love.
00:40:43 [music]
00:40:56 >> Are you sure you want a triple?
00:40:58 >> My last drink.
00:40:59 >> Ah, good.
00:41:00 Going on a wagon, huh?
00:41:01 >> Might sound giving up everything.
00:41:04 >> Good.
00:41:05 Excuse me.
00:41:12 >> You see?
00:41:13 >> Poor man.
00:41:15 I knew he was troubled, but I had no idea.
00:41:17 Well, shouldn't we have stopped him?
00:41:19 >> He came to me with every symptom in the book, everything from weak ankles to excess dandruff.
00:41:25 I knew something was strange, so I just gave him some sugar pills.
00:41:30 Maybe you and Sandra should have a little chat.
00:41:35 >> Thanks, Doc.
00:41:36 >> Excuse me.
00:41:42 Mr. Berkeley, haven't seen much of you these past few days.
00:41:47 >> I know I let you down, but I won't be a burden to you much longer.
00:41:50 >> Day after tomorrow is the big night, Christmas Eve.
00:41:54 A lot of people are counting on you.
00:41:56 >> A lot of people used to count on me.
00:41:58 Right now, I honestly don't think anybody would miss me if I weren't here.
00:42:02 >> Not Miss Santa or not Miss Arthur Berkeley.
00:42:08 >> So you know.
00:42:10 Well, it's too late.
00:42:11 Any minute now, I'll be an ex-elf.
00:42:13 There's nothing you can do for me.
00:42:15 >> Oh, I don't know.
00:42:16 A couple aspirin might help.
00:42:19 Sugar pills.
00:42:23 >> Dr. Bricker knew?
00:42:26 >> Doc cares.
00:42:28 I care.
00:42:29 >> Why?
00:42:30 >> I have no house, no money, no job, no car, no girl, no self-respect.
00:42:37 The only thing I have at the moment is a prison record.
00:42:41 >> Three days.
00:42:42 >> It hardens a man.
00:42:46 You really care?
00:42:48 >> You would too if you could see what I see.
00:42:50 A man, a charming man, with drive, ambition, and a great deal of potential.
00:42:58 >> Me?
00:42:59 You see that in me?
00:43:00 >> Mm-hmm.
00:43:03 >> Could I buy you a drink?
00:43:06 >> Well, if some serious conversation went along with it, I could go for a glass of guava juice.
00:43:11 >> You have exotic tastes.
00:43:12 My fiancé had exotic tastes.
00:43:14 >> Oh.
00:43:23 >> I thought your daughter didn't approve of gambling.
00:43:26 >> She doesn't.
00:43:28 >> Let's play anyway.
00:43:30 >> It's all right.
00:43:31 My mother's harmless.
00:43:32 She doesn't know a full house from a condominium.
00:43:35 >> I'm afraid I don't either, really.
00:43:37 >> What do you say a dime a game?
00:43:39 Just to make it interesting for the old girl.
00:43:42 >> I think I could handle at least that.
00:43:45 Perhaps a little bit more.
00:43:47 [music]
00:43:58 >> Fasten your seat belts.
00:44:00 [music]
00:44:11 >> It's silly to feel this way, because Meryl and Vicki and I have all had to make adjustments,
00:44:15 and who would have thought that Christmas would be a problem?
00:44:18 I mean, of all things, Christmas.
00:44:21 >> Well, every family has traditions.
00:44:24 I know our family used to take a drive every Christmas Eve and go look at the lights on the houses,
00:44:29 and then we'd come home and have a cup of hot cinnamon cider.
00:44:33 My Uncle Roger would go to the window every year, and he'd look out and say, "Oh, look!
00:44:39 Something just flew past the moon.
00:44:41 It looks like --" No, couldn't be.
00:44:44 My kids would beg him to tell what he saw.
00:44:47 >> We were sure it was Santa.
00:44:49 >> Ah, that sounds lovely.
00:44:51 >> It was.
00:44:53 The three of you will develop something special like that.
00:44:56 It just takes time, that's all.
00:44:58 >> Oh, I hope so.
00:44:59 Do you know they even have a tradition of gifts they give each other?
00:45:02 They're so far ahead of me.
00:45:04 >> Vicki's paintings.
00:45:06 Well, Emily, why don't you start a tradition of your own?
00:45:09 Why don't you make the captain something?
00:45:11 >> Make him something?
00:45:13 I used to knit.
00:45:15 >> That was such a long time ago.
00:45:17 >> That's perfect.
00:45:18 It'll come back to you.
00:45:19 >> But will it come back in time?
00:45:21 It has such a long way to travel.
00:45:25 >> I had a wonderful time tonight.
00:45:27 >> Sure you had a wonderful time.
00:45:28 You took my mother for over $3.
00:45:31 >> I feel so bad about that.
00:45:32 I didn't want to take it.
00:45:34 >> I know, but she has a sort of code of honor about financial debts.
00:45:37 >> She's a fine woman, your mother, a woman of principles.
00:45:40 >> I really am still that quality in you.
00:45:43 I find that very rare and very attractive.
00:45:48 >> Good night, Willie.
00:45:49 Thanks for everything.
00:45:54 >> My timing really is everything.
00:46:05 >> You know, you haven't changed a day, Amore.
00:46:09 >> I don't know about that.
00:46:10 The light in here just happens to be very good.
00:46:12 >> No, no, no.
00:46:13 You're just the same.
00:46:15 I remember everything about you.
00:46:17 I remember your hair.
00:46:19 >> It's gray here.
00:46:20 >> Your eyes.
00:46:24 And your smile.
00:46:27 >> Surely you've seen other smiles in all this time.
00:46:30 >> Yes, Italian smiles.
00:46:33 But they're not as naughty as yours.
00:46:36 >> Oh, really? Thank you very much.
00:46:39 >> I have something for you.
00:46:40 >> Really? What's that?
00:46:42 >> You'll see. Be patient.
00:46:49 >> What's this?
00:46:51 >> I've been holding your mail.
00:46:53 >> My mail?
00:46:54 >> Yes. Oh, please don't laugh.
00:46:56 You always said my English was not so good.
00:46:58 So I needed some exercises.
00:47:01 I wrote you a letter almost every month.
00:47:04 We promised each other not to write, and I never mailed them to you.
00:47:08 But it was just a way of keeping you in my life.
00:47:15 >> You wrote all these to me?
00:47:18 >> Oh, yes.
00:47:19 All in English.
00:47:23 This one was after my sister's wedding.
00:47:26 I caught the bouquet.
00:47:28 An almond, yes?
00:47:36 David, I understood your devotion to your wife, and I admired it.
00:47:42 But I always missed you so much.
00:47:49 >> You know, I never really loved Catherine.
00:47:52 But she needed me, and she loved me.
00:47:54 And I thought, well, that was enough.
00:47:59 That was before I met you.
00:48:01 >> You're free now.
00:48:03 No more sadness, please.
00:48:07 We can start our life together now.
00:48:13 >> It's going to be a good trip.
00:48:17 You make it sound like that's all.
00:48:25 >> Let's make a toast.
00:48:30 To the time we have together.
00:48:33 [Glass clinking]
00:48:36 [Music]
00:48:39 [Music]
00:49:07 >> I love ocean travel.
00:49:09 It's like we're a million miles away from everything.
00:49:12 >> Yes, so unhurried.
00:49:15 And so romantic.
00:49:19 I, uh, I bought you something.
00:49:21 I know you said not to, but I couldn't help myself.
00:49:25 And it's the season.
00:49:29 Merry Christmas.
00:49:31 >> Something tells me I'm going to be very mad at you.
00:49:34 >> This looks just about the size to hold that diamond and emerald bracelet we saw yesterday.
00:49:44 Or the gold watch.
00:49:48 Or...
00:49:52 An ugly little statue.
00:49:56 >> I knew you'd be furious with me if I spent a lot of money on you.
00:49:59 >> Livid.
00:50:00 One of the more obscure Aztec gods.
00:50:04 >> With a face like that, I think he was destined for obscurity.
00:50:09 >> He was said to be a god of companionship.
00:50:13 And of long life.
00:50:20 And... and love.
00:50:33 Are you okay?
00:50:34 >> Fine.
00:50:36 Fine, it's just, um, nobody's ever given me anything like this before.
00:50:42 Really.
00:50:43 >> Well, I'd give you thousands of these if you'd let me.
00:50:46 >> One is plenty, thank you.
00:50:49 >> Well, I didn't mean...
00:50:53 I can't always find the right words, but even not knowing you, I feel as if I know you better than anyone I ever knew.
00:50:58 And I... I wonder if...
00:51:02 I wonder... what I'm wondering is...
00:51:05 >> I think I'm getting the picture, and I think you shouldn't finish that sentence.
00:51:08 See, I like you, Willie.
00:51:10 I like you a lot.
00:51:12 >> But?
00:51:13 >> But take my advice and never try that question unless you're absolutely sure you're thinking straight.
00:51:20 It could land you in an awful lot of trouble.
00:51:37 >> Oh, you're a crook.
00:51:43 >> A sort of beautiful arrangement for one of the passengers?
00:51:47 >> One of the crew.
00:51:48 >> Who?
00:51:49 >> You.
00:51:50 >> For me?
00:51:51 >> Yeah.
00:51:52 >> Who would do that?
00:51:53 >> I don't know.
00:51:54 >> Merry Christmas, just because you were nice to Santa Claus.
00:52:00 >> Do you like them?
00:52:02 >> Mr. Berkeley, these are from you for me.
00:52:06 >> Well, who deserves them more?
00:52:08 I charged the flowers and this suit so you wouldn't be embarrassed when we paint the town red tonight.
00:52:13 >> The town?
00:52:14 We don't reach Acapulco till tomorrow.
00:52:16 >> Then we'll paint the ship red.
00:52:18 Ah, Captain might object.
00:52:21 >> Mr. Berkeley, what's come over you?
00:52:23 And why the sudden change?
00:52:25 >> You, my darling, you've given me a new lease on life.
00:52:28 Your love has made me a new man.
00:52:30 >> My what?
00:52:32 >> Your love.
00:52:33 >> Now, here, take your flowers and be prepared to answer the most important question of your life tonight because Santa has a surprise for you.
00:52:41 Hint, it's for the third finger of your left hand.
00:52:45 >> Mr. Berkeley.
00:52:46 >> I think it's time you call me Arthur.
00:52:48 Better yet, call me darling.
00:52:51 >> Oops.
00:52:54 Ace.
00:53:00 Santa Claus is in love with me.
00:53:03 >> Great.
00:53:04 Julie, I was hoping for a new sled this Christmas.
00:53:06 Do you think it would put in a good word?
00:53:08 >> Ace.
00:53:09 >> Bye.
00:53:15 >> Happy, darling?
00:53:16 >> Very.
00:53:18 >> Me, too.
00:53:19 You, Christmas, the cruise together.
00:53:22 >> Who really could ask for anything more?
00:53:24 >> I could.
00:53:27 >> We get to Acapulco for Christmas Eve tomorrow.
00:53:30 We are back in Los Angeles a couple of days after that.
00:53:33 And after that, what happens then, David?
00:53:39 >> I've learned what Catherine learned.
00:53:41 Take each day as it comes.
00:53:44 >> No plans for the future?
00:53:46 No looking forward to what trip we'll take next year or what dinner we'll have next week?
00:53:51 >> Please, Carla, this is so wonderful.
00:53:53 Let it be.
00:53:54 Enjoy it for what it is.
00:53:56 For now.
00:53:59 >> You're still married, aren't you?
00:54:03 Catherine is still alive.
00:54:06 >> I had to see you.
00:54:08 >> Oh, just for a few days.
00:54:11 I've lived every waking moment for the last three years for you.
00:54:16 I don't want to wait any more for the time we could be together again.
00:54:20 >> But we are together.
00:54:21 >> Oh, yes.
00:54:22 One week before you go back to your other life.
00:54:26 And I will be alone again.
00:54:29 How can you do this to me, David?
00:54:32 [ Music ]
00:54:53 [ Knock on door ]
00:55:04 >> Mr. Berkley.
00:55:05 >> Ho, ho, ho.
00:55:07 >> Mr. Berkley.
00:55:09 >> 'Tis the season.
00:55:10 >> No, 'tis definitely not the season.
00:55:12 We have to talk.
00:55:14 Please, sit down.
00:55:19 I really have to make something clear to you.
00:55:22 >> Oh, no, you don't.
00:55:23 I can see the love light in your eyes.
00:55:24 >> There is no love light.
00:55:25 You don't see anything in my eyes.
00:55:27 >> After all, we've meant to one another.
00:55:31 >> Mr. Berkley, you're a nice man, a sweet man, a charming man, a confused man.
00:55:40 But ours is a business relationship.
00:55:42 Me, cruise director, you, Santa Claus.
00:55:45 >> But I thought -- I mean, you said --
00:55:47 >> I said I care about you, and I do.
00:55:50 In a humanitarian way.
00:55:52 I mean, I care about you the way one person is supposed to care about another person.
00:55:57 >> I thought it was more than that.
00:56:02 >> I'm sorry, Arthur.
00:56:03 Really, I am.
00:56:05 You only fell for me because you don't have anything else in your life right now.
00:56:09 But all that's going to change, isn't it?
00:56:12 You know, things won't stay like this.
00:56:15 We are each the captain of our own ship, the master of our own destiny.
00:56:21 But your future's entirely in your own hands.
00:56:24 >> You're right, Miss McCoy.
00:56:25 Things are going to change.
00:56:26 >> That's the spirit.
00:56:28 Now, keep that positive attitude.
00:56:30 We'll see you in the purser's lobby tonight, 9 o'clock.
00:56:34 You look great.
00:56:41 >> Things are going to change, all right.
00:56:43 I'm going to change it.
00:56:45 >> Good.
00:57:04 >> I'm very pleased that you're enjoying the activities on board.
00:57:07 >> Oh, yes, everything is just wonderful.
00:57:09 Merry Christmas, Captain.
00:57:11 >> Why, thank you very much.
00:57:13 Yes, and Merry Christmas to you, too.
00:57:15 Come sail with us again sometime.
00:57:20 >> Well, Merrill, I thought you said you'd be gone for a couple of hours.
00:57:24 >> I forgot my vitamins.
00:57:26 So, how's your day going?
00:57:29 >> Why do you ask?
00:57:31 >> It was only a question.
00:57:34 Are you all right?
00:57:36 >> I've never been better.
00:57:38 >> Speaking of questions, you know, one of the passengers asked me what your favorite color is.
00:57:44 And I said I thought it was blue.
00:57:46 Is that right?
00:57:48 >> Strange question for one of the passengers to ask.
00:57:53 My favorite color?
00:57:58 I think it would be green.
00:57:59 >> Green?
00:58:00 I thought it was blue.
00:58:02 When we took that test, how well do you know your mate?
00:58:05 Didn't you tell me it was blue?
00:58:07 >> I think I told you green.
00:58:09 Emily, are you sure you're all right?
00:58:11 >> Oh, yeah, I'm just a little nervous.
00:58:13 That's all.
00:58:14 You know, Christmas and everything.
00:58:15 My stomach is all tied up in knits, knots.
00:58:18 Oh, well, I'm sorry you have to go back to work so soon.
00:58:21 You could just stay just for a cup of coffee.
00:58:23 Oh, I understand a captain's work is never done.
00:58:25 See you later, sweetheart.
00:58:28 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:58:30 Goose, not turkey.
00:58:32 Green, not blue.
00:58:34 I thought I knew the man.
00:58:38 >> Hey, Isaac.
00:58:39 >> Hey, Doc.
00:58:41 >> Did the bar turn into a blackjack table when I wasn't looking?
00:58:45 >> No, one of the passengers left this deck of cards at the bar last night, and I'm passing the time.
00:58:49 >> Well, you could pass it more successfully if you play the black seven on the red eight.
00:58:55 >> Come on, Doc, this is solitary.
00:58:57 It's for one person.
00:58:58 >> Yeah, but don't they call it something when two people play?
00:59:02 >> Wait a minute.
00:59:05 What black seven?
00:59:11 How did you know that was a black seven?
00:59:13 >> The same way I know this is a queen of clubs and this is a two of hearts.
00:59:22 >> Mark deck.
00:59:25 [ Music ]
00:59:32 [ Singing ]
00:59:56 >> You know, that's one of my favorite carols.
00:59:58 >> It isn't even in English.
01:00:00 >> My grandfather always sang it in German.
01:00:02 Of course, he did everything in German.
01:00:05 >> Bing, Jess.
01:00:06 [ Music ]
01:00:11 [ Applause ]
01:00:20 >> Aren't they adorable?
01:00:22 >> They have been adorable for seven carols, Miss McCoy.
01:00:25 Now, where is Santa Claus?
01:00:26 >> I honestly don't know, sir.
01:00:28 >> You call that an answer?
01:00:29 >> Well, I'm sorry.
01:00:30 It's the only one I have at the moment.
01:00:33 >> Ho, ho, ho.
01:00:35 Merry Christmas.
01:00:37 >> Merry Christmas, Santa.
01:00:39 >> I love it.
01:00:40 Merry Christmas.
01:00:41 Ho, ho, ho.
01:00:43 >> It's ace.
01:00:44 Can you believe it?
01:00:45 >> Merry Christmas.
01:00:46 Ho, ho, ho.
01:00:48 Merry Christmas.
01:00:50 >> Well, that is more like it.
01:00:52 >> I'll be the same.
01:00:54 >> Ho, ho, ho.
01:00:56 Merry Christmas.
01:00:57 Merry Christmas.
01:00:59 Merry Christmas.
01:01:01 >> Ace, thank you.
01:01:03 >> Don't mention it.
01:01:04 Please don't mention it.
01:01:06 >> Merry Christmas.
01:01:07 >> Ho, ho, ho.
01:01:08 Merry Christmas.
01:01:11 >> What a night.
01:01:13 The children, the music, the moon.
01:01:16 Isn't the moon beautiful, Mama?
01:01:18 >> I've seen it before.
01:01:20 And for that matter, so have you.
01:01:23 >> Yeah, but not like this.
01:01:25 Maybe it's -- I don't know.
01:01:27 Maybe it's because tomorrow is Christmas Eve.
01:01:30 It suddenly looks different somehow.
01:01:32 >> Honestly, Heather, you sound like a bad movie.
01:01:36 There's been a look in your eyes lately that I don't like one bit.
01:01:45 That Wellington is everything we could ask for.
01:01:48 And he's ripe for the picking.
01:01:51 One evening of cards with him could be a giant step towards security for us on set years.
01:02:00 But can't you see?
01:02:02 He's everything we've been waiting for.
01:02:04 >> Honey, that's exactly what I was just thinking.
01:02:16 >> You're afraid of heights.
01:02:18 So what difference does it make?
01:02:20 In a few seconds it will be all over and you'll never have to worry about heights again.
01:02:34 >> Did you lose your reindeer, Santa?
01:02:39 >> Who are you?
01:02:41 >> I'm a Christmas angel.
01:02:43 >> Do your parents know you're out here by yourself?
01:02:46 >> Do yours?
01:02:47 >> That's different.
01:02:48 I'm an adult.
01:02:49 >> You're not.
01:02:50 >> You're an adult.
01:02:51 >> I'm an adult.
01:02:52 >> You're an adult.

01:04:12 >> Do we have a future together?
01:04:15 >> No.
01:04:16 No, we don't.
01:04:18 >> Then goodbye, David.
01:04:19 [ Music ]
01:04:20 >> I could stay up all night in St. Carol's.
01:04:21 >> Well, until that Santa finally arrives.
01:04:22 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:23 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:24 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:25 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:26 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:27 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:28 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:29 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:30 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:31 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:32 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:33 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:34 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:41 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:42 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:43 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:44 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:45 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:46 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:47 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:48 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:49 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:50 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:51 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:52 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:53 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:54 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:55 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:56 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:57 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:58 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:04:59 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:00 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:01 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:02 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:03 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:04 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:05 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:06 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:07 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:08 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:09 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:10 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:11 >> I'm not going to stay up all night.
01:05:12 >> He's fine for the moment.
01:05:26 >> Fine?
01:05:27 But last night he --
01:05:28 >> It was a symptom of progressive spinal muscular atrophy, a variant of Lou Gehrig's disease.
01:05:29 >> What?
01:05:30 >> Have you told him?
01:05:31 >> Actually, he told me.
01:05:32 He was diagnosed almost two years ago.
01:05:33 >> Well, can't you give him something?
01:05:34 >> How long does he have?
01:05:35 >> Well, without a more extensive examination --
01:05:36 >> My doctors have given me two to three years.
01:05:37 >> And it's already been almost two.
01:05:40 Is Carla --
01:05:41 >> No, no, I can't tell her.
01:05:42 I don't want her to feel sorry for me, to feel that she has to care for me out of some
01:05:43 misguided sense of pity.
01:05:44 >> Well, that sounds like a decision she should make.
01:05:45 Carla is a strong lady.
01:05:46 She could handle it.
01:05:47 >> Well, read it however you'd like.
01:05:48 I simply won't put her in the position of feeling that she has to --
01:05:49 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:50 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:51 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:52 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:53 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:54 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:55 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:56 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:05:57 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:06:18 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:06:44 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:13 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:14 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:15 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:16 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:17 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:18 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:19 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:20 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:21 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:22 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:23 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:24 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:25 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:26 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:27 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:28 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:29 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:30 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:31 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:32 >> I'm not going to read it.
01:07:34 [ Music ]
01:07:52 >> Are you sure this is where Mr. Rothmeier wants us to meet him?
01:07:55 >> Si, senorita.
01:07:56 He specifically requested this table.
01:07:59 >> Why do I feel like we're being set up for something here?
01:08:03 [ Music ]
01:08:11 >> Good God, I hope they're not going to sing "Happy Birthday" in Spanish.
01:08:15 [ Music ]
01:08:21 >> It's him.
01:08:22 [ Music ]
01:08:25 >> The boy and his cello warms the heart.
01:08:28 [ Music ]
01:08:33 >> The words mean a boy and a girl meet on a big ship.
01:08:37 They fall in love.
01:08:39 The boy is certain of what he feels.
01:08:41 The girl is less sure, but ultimately falls completely under the spell of the Mexican moon.
01:08:46 >> He's making this up.
01:08:47 I distinctly heard them sing something about a burro.
01:08:51 >> Oh, mother.
01:08:52 >> Here comes the ending.
01:08:53 [ Music ]
01:08:56 >> He asks the girl to marry him.
01:08:59 >> To what?
01:09:00 >> To marry him.
01:09:03 >> I don't believe this.
01:09:04 Miss, can I have the menu, please?
01:09:06 >> And what does the girl say?
01:09:08 >> Say yes.
01:09:09 [ Cheering ]
01:09:12 >> What does the girl say?
01:09:14 >> I don't know.
01:09:15 I need more time.
01:09:16 >> Take all the time you need.
01:09:18 Just know I love you.
01:09:21 Merry Christmas.
01:09:23 [ Music ]
01:09:46 >> I've never been so embarrassed in my life.
01:09:50 >> Mother, we've got to call off the sting.
01:09:53 >> Oh, because of some silly proposal.
01:09:55 Oh, you must be joking.
01:09:57 >> No, I'm not.
01:09:58 There are other pigeons out there.
01:10:00 >> Ah, but one like this hasn't flown our way for some time.
01:10:05 Oh, Heather, you're not in love with him.
01:10:08 There's just something in this tropical air.
01:10:11 I knew we should have stuck to the North Atlantic.
01:10:14 >> Mother, what I'm trying to say --
01:10:16 >> You know how we operate.
01:10:18 Like that old Latin saying, we came, we saw, we took the sucker for everything he had.
01:10:24 No personal involvement.
01:10:26 Neat, quick, clean.
01:10:29 Oh, darling, you thank me for this when you come to your senses.
01:10:33 >> Mother, I've always done everything you've asked of me, and I've asked for very little in return.
01:10:38 Now I'm asking you for this one thing.
01:10:41 Please leave him alone.
01:10:43 >> It's my career.
01:10:46 >> Would you ask Jane Fonda to give up her workouts?
01:10:50 >> David is still married.
01:11:04 Did you know that?
01:11:05 >> Married?
01:11:07 Did he tell you that?
01:11:09 >> Oh, he didn't have to.
01:11:11 It's very clear.
01:11:12 We have no future together.
01:11:14 Only the past.
01:11:16 Only the few days we spend on this boat.
01:11:21 I suppose I would talk to him, give him a chance to explain.
01:11:26 Do you still love him?
01:11:30 >> Yes, God help me.
01:11:33 I still do.
01:11:35 >> I really appreciate your letting me talk to you like this.
01:11:43 Oh, it's the least a future mother-in-law can do for her future son-in-law.
01:11:48 I'm so glad you don't mind playing a hand or two while we talk.
01:11:52 We always play cards while we talk at the ladies' club.
01:11:57 >> What's this, more cards?
01:12:00 I thought he already taught you a lesson in gambling.
01:12:02 >> Oh, you know me, sweetheart.
01:12:04 I'm a sucker for higher education.
01:12:07 I raise you 3,000.
01:12:11 >> I'll see your 3 and raise you 1.
01:12:15 We're really just talking, Heather.
01:12:18 >> I can't let him take advantage of you with those bad hands you always get.
01:12:21 Let's see.
01:12:25 Just as I thought.
01:12:27 These are terrible.
01:12:31 [playing "Taps"]
01:12:35 >> Pretty good, huh?
01:12:44 >> Well, you've been holding out on me.
01:12:46 Are you sure you're not a card shark?
01:12:48 >> What?
01:12:50 Clumsy me.
01:12:58 >> I'll see your last raise and raise you 10 taco chips.
01:13:04 >> Ten? $10,000?
01:13:06 >> Don't let her bluff you, darling.
01:13:08 Who knows what you might draw.
01:13:10 >> Well, okay.
01:13:12 I'll take three.
01:13:16 >> I'll take four.
01:13:21 [playing "Taps"]
01:13:23 >> Isn't this fun?
01:13:34 I think I'm gonna be good luck for you.
01:13:36 >> Isaac, after what you told me last night,
01:13:43 I had the ship's office here in Acapulco compile this information on Heather and her mother.
01:13:48 They're professional gamblers.
01:13:50 They've been barred from every ship afloat.
01:13:52 Look at this list of complaints.
01:13:55 I guess I don't owe her two years' salary after all.
01:13:57 >> Yes, well, I don't want any incident aboard my ship to be added to that list.
01:14:01 >> Sir, they could take Mr. Rothmeyer for every cent he's got.
01:14:05 >> Not if someone told him what was happening.
01:14:08 I'll speak to him immediately.
01:14:09 >> Oh, uh, sir, this sort of thing takes diplomacy.
01:14:13 >> You don't think I have diplomacy?
01:14:15 >> Oh, no, sir, it's just that, uh, with news like this, I think the old saying applies.
01:14:21 >> Old saying?
01:14:23 >> Yeah, never send a captain to do a bartender's job.
01:14:26 [music]
01:14:28 >> Mary?
01:14:38 >> Oh, sorry, ma'am, no one's there.
01:14:39 I think he checked off the ship.
01:14:41 >> Off the ship?
01:14:42 >> I think so.
01:14:44 [music]
01:14:47 [music]
01:14:50 [music]
01:14:52 [music]
01:15:20 [music]
01:15:49 >> You know, we don't get many Santas in here.
01:15:51 >> I heard that joke before.
01:15:53 I think it was with a kangaroo.
01:15:55 >> Can I get something for you?
01:15:56 >> I'll have what he's having.
01:15:58 >> Cranberry juice on the racks coming up.
01:16:00 >> Even the drink orders aren't working for me.
01:16:03 >> You on the Christmas cruise?
01:16:06 >> Not anymore.
01:16:07 I always planned this as a one-way trip anyway.
01:16:10 >> I didn't plan it.
01:16:13 Just worked out that way.
01:16:15 >> Eh, life is full of little surprises.
01:16:17 >> Mmm.
01:16:18 >> Tell me about it.
01:16:20 >> Last year I was a happy man.
01:16:26 Happy, successful, well-liked.
01:16:29 You wouldn't have found me in here drowning my sorrows in a cranberry juice last year.
01:16:33 >> Well, things change.
01:16:36 At least for you, they'll be next year.
01:16:40 >> Not for you.
01:16:42 >> Who knows?
01:16:44 I've been given a deadline.
01:16:47 >> Yeah, it's just that no one can tell me when it is.
01:16:50 It could be tomorrow or next week or...
01:16:53 I don't know.
01:16:55 Maybe an hour from now.
01:16:56 >> Or a year or five years from now.
01:16:58 >> Please, please. I've been told by experts in their field.
01:17:01 They've all circled their calendars.
01:17:04 >> I had a great aunt once who was given six weeks to live by an expert in his field.
01:17:10 So she kept talking to experts until she found one who told her that she could live to be as old as she liked.
01:17:15 She stuck with him, lived to be 95.
01:17:18 >> It's a nice story.
01:17:22 >> Experts know about anatomy, but they don't know about people.
01:17:25 I was a salesman. People were my business.
01:17:28 Let me tell you, if there's some happiness to be had, grab it while you can.
01:17:32 Hey, listen to me.
01:17:34 I never thought I'd find myself this optimistic again.
01:17:37 >> Maybe something about that suit you're wearing.
01:17:40 >> Maybe. But if you don't live for today,
01:17:42 you might be here ten years from now saying, "What happened to all the time I've wasted?"
01:17:46 >> Wish I could believe that.
01:17:50 >> If you can't trust Santa.
01:17:52 >> Well, I admit it's hard to argue with a guy in white fur.
01:17:56 I don't know that I buy a word you're saying, but it's worth thinking about.
01:18:02 Santa's juice is on me.
01:18:04 Merry Christmas.
01:18:07 >> Thank you. Merry Christmas to you. And many more.
01:18:10 [♪♪♪]
01:18:12 >> Ladies and gentlemen, we hope your day in Acapulco was truly memorable.
01:18:25 Now relax and enjoy your Christmas Eve under tropical skies as we head back to Los Angeles.
01:18:30 >> Merry Christmas, Dad. I hope you like it.
01:18:38 >> Well, it's from you. How could I not like it?
01:18:40 Oh, honey.
01:18:50 This is the best painting you've ever done.
01:18:53 Oh, honey, it's wonderful.
01:18:55 >> Oh, thank you.
01:18:57 >> Yeah.
01:18:59 >> Are you opening presents before Christmas?
01:19:01 >> Well, we always exchange gifts on Christmas Eve, Emily. Don't you?
01:19:04 >> No. No, Merrill, I don't.
01:19:07 And I don't like geese.
01:19:09 And I don't like to sing Christmas carols in a foreign language.
01:19:12 And just for the record, I like to have a Christmas star on top of the tree and not an angel.
01:19:16 And I don't even like the sound of hot cinnamon cider.
01:19:20 >> What?
01:19:21 >> Oh, that was Julie. Oh, I'm sorry. I really am.
01:19:24 Look at me. I don't even know what I'm saying.
01:19:27 It's just that you have your traditions, and I don't even feel a part of them.
01:19:34 I just don't.
01:19:37 >> Emily.
01:19:38 I had no idea.
01:19:43 Look, don't you know that the only real tradition, the only one that's really important, is that we're together?
01:19:54 The three of us?
01:19:56 >> Emily, he's right. We are a family.
01:19:59 Yeah, but you're exchanging gifts tonight, and I don't even have your presents ready.
01:20:04 >> Emily, you are the best present anyone ever got.
01:20:08 You.
01:20:10 And this.
01:20:12 >> It's us.
01:20:18 And it's beautiful.
01:20:21 It's us.
01:20:22 >> A painting to be handed down from generation to generation.
01:20:26 The Steubing family tradition.
01:20:30 [laughter]
01:20:32 >> Evening, Wally.
01:20:45 >> Heather.
01:20:46 If the answer is no, don't tell me right away.
01:20:49 I don't think I can take it.
01:20:51 If the answer is yes, I might not be able to take that either.
01:20:54 If you haven't decided yet, I might just throw myself over this railing anyway, so...
01:20:58 If that was a no, I don't think I could survive a yes.
01:21:07 It was a yes.
01:21:09 You'll marry me?
01:21:12 But I have to tell you something.
01:21:15 All I needed to hear was yes.
01:21:17 I meant that yes with all my heart.
01:21:20 But there's something you have to know about me.
01:21:22 Mr. Rothmeier.
01:21:24 I hate to interrupt, but I've been looking for you all day.
01:21:26 Isaac, congratulate me.
01:21:27 Heather Duvall is going to become Mrs. Wellington Davis Rothmeier IV.
01:21:30 Could I congratulate you privately?
01:21:35 Oh, it's okay.
01:21:38 I'll see you after the show.
01:21:40 Champagne for the house.
01:21:47 For the ship!
01:21:48 Tonight we all celebrate.
01:21:50 Isn't this great news?
01:21:52 Yeah, it's really great news.
01:21:54 But maybe you should read this before you lock down a date for the wedding.
01:22:00 I really hate to be the one to bring this to you, but...
01:22:10 I feel I should have somehow known something was wrong before you got in so deep.
01:22:17 I'm sorry.
01:22:21 I'm sorry.
01:22:22 An old adage springs to mind.
01:22:33 Something about buying a car when you can get the milk for free.
01:22:36 Wellington is not livestock, mother.
01:22:39 He's a kind, sensitive man who loves me.
01:22:42 That's all very well, but where does that leave me?
01:22:47 I thought you'd be pleased.
01:22:50 Why aren't you?
01:22:51 This could give us all the money you'll ever need and all the love I'll ever need.
01:22:55 Why are you fighting this every step of the way?
01:22:58 It isn't the money.
01:23:00 Well, it isn't just the money.
01:23:03 What about excitement? Adventure?
01:23:07 It's always been me and my little girl traveling the world over, living by our wits.
01:23:14 It's in my blood. If I stop, I'll rust.
01:23:18 And if I don't stop, I'll lose the only person I've ever loved.
01:23:21 Thank you.
01:23:23 Aside from you, of course.
01:23:26 Merry Christmas, mother.
01:23:34 Oh, I don't know what to say.
01:23:40 I guess I was too busy with the cards. I don't have anything for you.
01:23:46 Who is it?
01:23:48 It's Wellington.
01:23:50 Just a moment.
01:23:52 Now, you be nice. Aren't I always?
01:23:55 I love you, mother.
01:23:57 Well, I love you too.
01:24:00 And if this is what you really want, that's all the gift I need.
01:24:05 Wellie.
01:24:14 I've been worried about you. I couldn't find you after the show.
01:24:18 You look so serious.
01:24:25 I can't do it. I can't go through with it.
01:24:28 Go through with what?
01:24:30 With the wedding. With the joke.
01:24:34 The joke? What joke?
01:24:36 I do this on every trip I take. I find some girl I can impress with my money and my cello.
01:24:43 And I lead her along. For kicks.
01:24:46 You see, when you're as rich as I am you, you need a pastime.
01:24:51 And I was your pastime on this trip. That's all.
01:24:54 You really believed all that stuff I handed you?
01:24:57 The con was on.
01:24:59 I really thought you were smarter than that.
01:25:05 I really thought you were smarter than that.
01:25:07 [Music]
01:25:09 [Music]
01:25:27 [Music]
01:25:48 I'm afraid it's my turn to feel foolish.
01:25:51 Oh. It's you.
01:25:55 Foolish and very selfish.
01:25:58 What are you talking about?
01:26:03 I wanted this trip to be perfect.
01:26:05 A storybook picture for both of us to remember the rest of our lives.
01:26:09 I didn't want reality to creep into that picture at any moment.
01:26:12 Unfortunately, even bright pictures have shadows.
01:26:17 Life isn't always a storybook.
01:26:20 If this is the way it has to be,
01:26:24 if Katrin is still alive...
01:26:26 No, she's not.
01:26:28 She's not?
01:26:31 I don't understand.
01:26:34 I've been trying to get up the courage to be honest with you.
01:26:37 And to be honest with myself.
01:26:39 I haven't much time to live, Carla.
01:26:43 What?
01:26:46 I can't believe it.
01:26:50 Oh, David.
01:26:53 Please hear me out. Dr. Bricker can give you the details.
01:26:55 But the last thing I want is your pity.
01:26:57 I've been feeling plenty of that for myself.
01:27:00 Now you see why I had to leave.
01:27:03 Why I can't ask you to...
01:27:05 I'm sorry, David.
01:27:13 I do feel pity.
01:27:15 But not for your illness.
01:27:17 But for your feeling that you couldn't share that knowledge with me.
01:27:22 We all need someone.
01:27:23 And some people are lucky enough to find one person in a lifetime
01:27:27 they can feel truly at ease with.
01:27:30 I found him three years ago.
01:27:39 I think he's still around somewhere.
01:27:42 I can't promise you next year.
01:27:46 I can't even promise you tomorrow.
01:27:51 But you can promise me now.
01:27:53 Oh, yes, Carla.
01:28:00 Oh, yes.
01:28:02 Yes, I can promise you now.
01:28:04 Oh, yes, I can definitely promise you now, Carla.
01:28:09 Carla.
01:28:10 Good morning, passengers.
01:28:27 Speaking for your entire Love Boat crew,
01:28:30 we wish you a Merry Christmas and the happiest of New Years.
01:28:35 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:28:37 Good morning.
01:28:47 Captain, Merry Christmas.
01:28:49 What a pleasant surprise.
01:28:51 Will you have a cup of coffee?
01:28:53 A glass of juice, maybe?
01:28:55 This isn't a friendly visit, Mrs. Duval.
01:28:58 We need to talk.
01:29:00 I want you to know that I...
01:29:03 Yes, you want us to know that you're on to our...
01:29:05 profession.
01:29:07 And that you'd appreciate it if we'd think twice
01:29:10 about sailing with you at any time in the future.
01:29:12 Yes. Yes, I guess that's about it.
01:29:15 How did you...
01:29:17 Oh, we've heard it many times before.
01:29:19 How long have you known Captain?
01:29:22 About two days.
01:29:24 And Mr. Rothmeyer, did he know?
01:29:26 I think Isaac told him last night.
01:29:28 Why?
01:29:30 Then he was lying to me.
01:29:33 He does love me.
01:29:34 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:29:40 Wellington, you've got to listen to me.
01:29:44 Sure. I could use a laugh.
01:29:46 But could you use a wife?
01:29:48 I know why you said what you did last night.
01:29:52 Now, you can believe this or not,
01:29:54 but I was going to tell you the truth.
01:29:56 When? On our 25th anniversary?
01:29:58 It's what I was trying to tell you last night.
01:30:01 You saw something in me that no one else ever saw.
01:30:03 And you made me see it, too.
01:30:05 Now you can go off and play your cello somewhere by yourself,
01:30:08 or you can take me with you.
01:30:10 Either way, my feelings about you won't change.
01:30:13 Because it all comes down to this.
01:30:16 I love you.
01:30:18 I love you, too, Heather.
01:30:20 I guess it's just in the cards for us.
01:30:23 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:30:26 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:30:46 We'll be docking in Los Angeles tomorrow morning,
01:30:49 but be sure to join us in the International Lounge tonight
01:30:52 and help us celebrate a love boat Christmas.
01:30:55 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:31:05 Ladies and gentlemen,
01:31:07 for our Christmas show, we have a very special treat for you.
01:31:10 A singer who has already stolen your hearts.
01:31:13 And God knows what else on this ship.
01:31:15 So here she is to entertain you,
01:31:17 the star on the top of our tree,
01:31:20 Miss Heather Duval.
01:31:23 [APPLAUSE]
01:31:25 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:31:45 Another no-show from St. Nick?
01:31:47 It sure looks like it.
01:31:49 Nobody's seen him, and this could mean my job.
01:31:53 Excuse me.
01:31:54 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:32:09 I've got to check on the plane.
01:32:11 Pressure in, Victoria.
01:32:14 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:32:43 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:32:57 Heather?
01:32:59 Vicki?
01:33:01 Julie?
01:33:03 I thought you could use me again.
01:33:05 Isaac, Doc, Vicki, Julie.
01:33:07 And Ace.
01:33:09 What is this, a convention?
01:33:12 I'm mistaken.
01:33:13 Emily, Emily.
01:33:15 How did you know there was a problem?
01:33:17 Well, you would have to be blind not to notice that something was wrong.
01:33:20 As Meryl told me.
01:33:22 The captain knows?
01:33:24 Of course the captain knows.
01:33:26 You didn't think you could pull the red suit over my eyes forever, did you?
01:33:29 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:33:47 [APPLAUSE]
01:34:04 Meryl, you look adorable.
01:34:07 Well, we all look adorable.
01:34:09 Hey, has anyone noticed that there are seven of us back here?
01:34:13 And no one out there.
01:34:16 Ho, ho, ho, ho.
01:34:17 Merry Christmas.
01:34:19 [APPLAUSE]
01:34:28 Watch this, impostors.
01:34:30 Open the curtain.
01:34:32 I see Santa's helpers are everywhere.
01:34:34 Ho, ho, ho.
01:34:36 You were supposed to be here an hour ago.
01:34:38 I know I was supposed to see you earlier, but Santa had a few things to work out for himself.
01:34:42 A lesson to learn.
01:34:45 He learned that life is too short as it is not to treasure each day we're given.
01:34:48 That lesson was Santa's gift to Santa this year.
01:34:51 And Santa's gift to all of you.
01:34:53 Ho, ho, ho.
01:34:55 [APPLAUSE]
01:35:00 Miss McCoy, will you please tell me what's going on here?
01:35:02 What can I say, sir?
01:35:04 Looks like Santa finally got in the Christmas spirit.
01:35:07 Ho, ho, ho.
01:35:18 Well?
01:35:20 Ho, ho, ho.
01:35:22 Merry Christmas.
01:35:25 [APPLAUSE]
01:35:32 [MUSIC]
01:35:45 This cruise has changed my life, Julie.
01:35:47 I'm a new man ready for whatever life has to throw in my face.
01:35:50 And when you're a salesman, that could be practically anything.
01:35:53 I still think you should marry me.
01:35:55 Well, it's certainly the nicest proposal I've received all week.
01:35:58 Don't you consider it?
01:36:01 Well, you can't blame Santa for trying, huh?
01:36:03 Have a good life.
01:36:05 You too.
01:36:07 Merry Christmas.
01:36:09 Captain.
01:36:11 Yes?
01:36:13 I just want to see Merry Christmas.
01:36:15 Well, thank you.
01:36:17 Happy New Year.
01:36:19 And a word of advice, give up the cards.
01:36:21 Oh, I'm afraid my lifestyle's changing anyway.
01:36:23 I tried to warn him.
01:36:25 And I tried to warn her.
01:36:27 Oh, what the heck.
01:36:30 I'm going to gamble anyway.
