00:00Tartina, hi!
00:03Just got word that we're pivoting on the European Christmas markers piece, so you're off the hook.
00:08Looks like I'm not going to Europe for Christmas after all.
00:11Where are you going then?
00:14Hi!
00:15Hi, love!
00:16How long has it been?
00:17Many years.
00:18There's no place quite like Maryville.
00:21Up and out girls, rise and shine!
00:23We have got things to do and people to see!
00:26I thought you still had a couple of days in the city.
00:28I am in the last place I thought I'd be for the holidays.
00:31Please tell me it's for an assignment.
00:33Tell me more about your man, Carter.
00:35Connor, it's called.
00:36We have people arriving here soon.
00:38Arriving for what?
00:39The annual Gardner Family Ugly Sweater Christmas Party.
00:42It's a family tradition.
00:43Well, if only I weren't buried in this merger, I'd be able to save you.
00:47I think I can manage a few days.
00:50In this house, we eat cookies and drink wassail.
00:54Nelly clicky-mocka!
00:57Will!
00:58Eliza!
00:59Hi.
01:00Hi.
01:01Oh my gosh, you're still in love with him.
01:04Okay!
01:05What is going on with you and Will?
01:07I am having a good time getting to know him again.
01:10And Colin, remember him?
01:13This is a small town.
01:15As long as you're happy, that's what matters.
01:18And whoever makes you happy, makes me happy.
01:21Oh, Dad.
01:23The more I'm here, the more I realize, I don't know, I do kind of miss it.
01:27Really, I think the small things are what anchor us to our past.
01:31Remind us of who we are, no matter where we've been.
