00:00:00You truly are a brilliant woman, but no one does it alone, Becca.
00:00:07True greatness comes from our ability to connect,
00:00:11to complement, and collaborate with with colleagues and compatriots to
00:00:17to create a career constructed with compassion.
00:00:21Now I know William isn't exactly your cup of cocoa.
00:00:24It's not that, it's just William is an idiot.
00:00:38Perhaps he just has a different way of doing things. What better time of year
00:00:45than the Christmas season to learn the value of working together
00:00:48and making dreams come true? I look forward to you and William's
00:00:53pitch.
00:01:07Oh, um, okay, so what do you think of when I say diamond ring?
00:01:15Proposal? Forever. True love? Or do you think of something
00:01:23a cut above the rest?
00:01:28How to describe elegance? Grace. Fire emoji.
00:01:36Her heels always click. Her legs never tweak.
00:01:41GSTP.
00:01:48You've already invested a lot of money in the project. You better fix this
00:01:52or move into our account. We will get this right. You have my word.
00:02:04Becca, William, you're up.
00:02:12Shh.
00:02:18What are those? Nothing. When I asked you to check the audio I didn't mean turn it
00:02:24up 10,000 notches. The ad needs to get the viewers attention,
00:02:28Becca. Oh, it did.
00:02:32Are we done?
00:02:37When I was a boy, we lived on a great big
00:02:40ranch, but we didn't have any livestock. Until one Christmas Eve, my father came
00:02:47home with not one, but two magnificent goats.
00:02:53You see, the fields have grown wild. No one maintained them in many decades,
00:02:57so my father thought the goats, if they worked together, could clear the
00:03:03fields, paving a path for my father to become a
00:03:06real rancher. Have you ever had the fresh spread of
00:03:12blueberry goat cheese on a bagel in the morning?
00:03:17No. I miss the fields.
00:03:23Coming into today, the two of you were the top
00:03:27two candidates for lead positions at the New York branch,
00:03:31but a leader takes responsibility. Now, I need to know what you think happened
00:03:37and how you plan on fixing it. The pitch was not Christmassy enough. It
00:03:41was definitely missing a certain holiday element. Are you sure that's what went
00:03:46wrong? Yes. I don't know.
00:03:50The Hamlin pitch is only a symptom of what went wrong. The real problem is
00:03:57is that the two of you aren't in touch with the spirit of Christmas.
00:04:03What does that mean? We can put more reindeer or buy more snow machines.
00:04:06I'd prefer not to do the carolers with their creepy little... It means
00:04:10that the two of you need to find out the true
00:04:14meaning of the season. Find out whatever it's all about, because
00:04:21despite all of your awards, your accolades, your accomplishments, the two
00:04:25of you are woefully lacking in what is the most
00:04:30important season in our industry. And it's a necessity, and certainly a
00:04:36necessity, if you plan on running my offices in
00:04:39New York. Hold on. I think we can all agree that Becca
00:04:42could use a little holiday cheer. I, on the other hand, am practically an
00:04:46elf. A troll, maybe. I am serious. Christmas is in my blood. Do
00:04:50you know who I am? Do you know where I come from?
00:04:52Michigan. Kringle Lake, Michigan, which just happens to be the most Christmasy
00:04:56place on earth, so I think I'm pretty much set. And how
00:05:00often have you visited since I've hired you here?
00:05:05You haven't visited your family in five years? And how long has it been for you,
00:05:09Becca, since you celebrated Christmas?
00:05:15So, I think we've established what's wrong.
00:05:20Two of you don't have it. Now, how do you plan to get it?
00:05:27Maybe we can spend Christmas in Kringle Lake. Wonderful!
00:05:30No. Oh, no, the two of you finding the holiday spirit at Kringle Lake?
00:05:35Ah, I like it. I don't think that's what she meant, sir. I really cannot.
00:05:38I'll check in on you here and there, see how you're doing, how you're
00:05:42getting along. Yeah, and when you return, then we'll
00:05:46talk about New York. I'll think about it.
00:06:00Oh, yes, I like it!
00:06:06He's always been eccentric and usually I find it endearing,
00:06:09but this is really out there even for him. I mean,
00:06:13Mr. Chris actually expects me to spend a few weeks,
00:06:16plural, in William Dyer's hometown. Yeah, I'll get right on that.
00:06:20Mia, come on! What? How am I supposed to find the Christmas spirit anyway?
00:06:25What does that even mean? I don't know.
00:06:31It's a feeling. You know what I mean. No, not in the slightest.
00:06:38All I know is I better figure it out before William does,
00:06:41even though he's from the place. Good thing he's still an idiot.
00:06:45Well, sounds like you've made up your mind about going anyway. I can't risk
00:06:48losing New York, especially not to that guy.
00:06:52Next time you see me, I will be a freaking Christmas fairy.
00:06:55Really? Yes.
00:07:56Merry Christmas! Wow, your tree is so,
00:08:04so nice! What yuletide we're having out there!
00:08:07What yuletide we're having out there! What yuletide we're having out...
00:08:12Wow, this house is festive. Wow, this house is festive.
00:08:42So,
00:09:01you're late. Good morning. Is it still even morning?
00:09:07No.
00:09:10You look very, very normal. I look very normal?
00:09:19Do I normally look abnormal to you? No, it's just I've
00:09:25never seen you in jeans. Thanks. And you look the same as you always
00:09:31do. Not that it's a bad thing, but you do
00:09:34know where we're going, right? Is this not suitable for Kringle Lake?
00:09:42Here.
00:09:48Now we're talking. It looks good. Thank you.
00:09:51Let me help you with this. Yeah.
00:09:59Coming.
00:10:07Here's the deal. I have no interest in winning this race to find the Christmas
00:10:11spirit without fair competition, so I've made an agenda on the most
00:10:14strategic way to find and implement the holiday spirit
00:10:17once we arrive in Kringle Lake. When did this become a race? It was implied.
00:10:21Okay. And how exactly can you make an agenda for a place you know
00:10:26nothing about? That's a great question. Have you ever heard of an itinerary?
00:10:31The most efficient vacations are meticulously planned.
00:10:35That's the approach I'm taking here. It's called the Metis method.
00:10:38Oh, the mighty method. You have a tree hunt on there. I'm sorry, what?
00:10:43Anyways, if you would like me to share this material with you so we're starting
00:10:46on a level playing field, I will. I am a team player.
00:10:51Appreciate that. Don't really need it. It's it yourself.
00:10:55And, uh, good luck. Don't need it. I already have the Christmas
00:11:01spirit. Is that so?
00:11:16It is the season to be jolly, fa la la la la la.
00:11:24Up. Don me now our gay apparel, fa la la la la la la.
00:11:31Oh my god! Never. How have you never listened to a podcast?
00:11:36I try to avoid the news. No, they have comedy ones and sports ones.
00:11:41Here, you'll like this one.
00:11:51After the war, John Morgan. He didn't even get to say goodbye.
00:11:55He made it. I know.
00:11:58Uh, snacks?
00:12:02And?
00:12:06How's that for Christmas spirit, huh?
00:12:12It was a great turn out the hammock. You're going in a traditional holiday
00:12:15campaign. Certainly didn't set the tone. No, 12 male art deco drama. An inability
00:12:19to work a simple projector. Well, okay. A simple.
00:12:23Seriously, I think you've had enough sugar for the day.
00:12:36So.
00:12:55Hello.
00:12:59What?
00:13:02I'm sorry. This must be a mistake.
00:13:06Can I please talk to your manager?
00:13:11Well, can you at least point me in the direction of where I can make my
00:13:14reservation? They can't all be booked. I. Okay, fine.
00:13:21Unbelievable. What am I supposed to do? What happened?
00:13:26The inn double booked me. You know, the one you recommended to me.
00:13:29Why don't we just look at your agenda? Surely it knows what to do.
00:13:32Well, can you not right now? Sorry.
00:13:41You know, I'm sure my mom would open up her guest room. Not if it were the last
00:13:44room in the entire state of Michigan. Look, I'm not crazy about this either.
00:13:48My mom would probably love it. Okay, I get what you're trying to do here, but I
00:13:52do not need your help, William. Okay, what are you going to do then?
00:13:58Research, plan, problem, solve. There's a solution here and I'm going to find it.
00:14:08I told you I would have been fine at the end.
00:14:11She was cute. A little mascot.
00:14:16Yes, yes. Well, it's so good to have you home.
00:14:22Little handsome, let me look at you.
00:14:27You're wearing my favorite shirt. It's good to see you too, Mom.
00:14:29And you must be Becca. Oh, we're so happy to have you.
00:14:32Had the guest room all set for you upstairs. Great, thank you for having me.
00:14:35I really appreciate it. I'm so sorry about the inconvenience.
00:14:38Oh, honey, don't worry about it. Come here.
00:14:41Oh. Come on, meet the rest of the family.
00:14:45Oh, this is my husband, Mark. Pleasure to meet you.
00:14:49Will. Our nephew, Delaware.
00:14:50Delaware. Hey.
00:14:52This is Will's younger brother, Alex. That's his husband, Oliver.
00:14:56Hey. Hi.
00:14:57And their daughter, Maggie. Great.
00:15:00Um, so it's just...
00:15:02Just... Princess Maggie.
00:15:06Oh, well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Princess Maggie. Thank you for the cookies.
00:15:13And all of you, thank you for having me in your home.
00:15:16Well, now that you're acquainted with everyone,
00:15:18you can take some time to get settled in. We'll have dinner in probably about an hour.
00:15:22Will, why don't you grab her bags and then you can lead the way?
00:15:25No, that's fine. I got it, Will. Are you sure?
00:15:27Yeah. Yeah, I should be great.
00:15:30Okay, well, it's the second bedroom on the left.
00:15:32Yeah, right up the stairs. Okay.
00:15:38She seems lovely. She's great.
00:15:41All right, let's go.
00:15:43Let's get back to it.
00:15:45Glad to have you back here, brother.
00:15:47Hey-o! Hey-o!
00:15:49Hey-o!
00:15:51You missed it again.
00:15:54Alex, you're up.
00:15:54Oh, it's my turn?
00:15:56Let's see what you got.
00:16:11If you roll a one, you're pretty much an epic fail.
00:16:13But if you roll a 20, that means you're going to be completely successful at whatever you do.
00:16:16Right. Head of the table.
00:16:18The idea that I'm developing, it's called the Catfish Tricker.
00:16:21Do-do-do, do you know like a serve, everybody?
00:16:23My strategy is that you get like a 15 on each, and then you—
00:16:26I brought a few things with me. I'm actually on a cleanse.
00:16:31I hope that's okay.
00:16:33That just means more food for me.
00:16:35Well, feel free to eat whatever you like and help yourself to anything in the fridge.
00:16:40A cleanse over a Christmas, huh?
00:16:42Bold move. You sound like Oliver.
00:16:44I'm not about cleanses.
00:16:46I'm about a lifestyle.
00:16:49Really?
00:16:51Here you go, sweetheart.
00:16:52Thanks, Daddy.
00:16:54Alex and Oliver have an amazing bakery in town.
00:16:56They make cakes, cookies, quiches, all kinds of great stuff.
00:16:59They use all natural, local ingredients.
00:17:01Oliver is really passionate about health and nutrition.
00:17:04We lead a very healthy lifestyle.
00:17:07Just not always around the holidays.
00:17:09So, were those cookies Maggie gave me from your bakery?
00:17:12Yeah, they are.
00:17:13I thought it might be a good welcome present for you.
00:17:15Although, I guess I should have got my vegan carrot cookies.
00:17:17That sounds amazing.
00:17:19Well, come by with Will this week. We'll get you a few.
00:17:21Yeah, why not?
00:17:22Hey, when you do go, can you bring back some of those scones?
00:17:24Will do, Dad.
00:17:46It's time.
00:17:50What?
00:17:51Face the wrath of Gorgadon!
00:17:53I got this.
00:17:55What he's trying to say, and we're all wondering, is
00:18:00why are you now finally coming home?
00:18:03And who's the girl?
00:18:05What do you mean?
00:18:07As I said in the group text,
00:18:11Becca works with me at Criss Cross.
00:18:13We bombed our big holiday pitch.
00:18:18And our boss sent us to Kringle Lake to find the Christmas spirit, whatever that means.
00:18:25After all these years, the prodigal son returns home
00:18:30to help us reclaim our rightful place atop the mountain.
00:18:35To help us conquer Old Man Barber once and for all.
00:18:40Yes!
00:18:42The tree.
00:18:43Yeah, it's about the tree.
00:18:44Son, glad to have you back.
00:18:48Training starts tomorrow.
00:18:50I'm going to use the restroom.
00:19:00Well, Kringle Lake is the perfect place to do it, Becca.
00:19:04Find the holiday spirit, I mean.
00:19:06Yeah, that's what we're counting on.
00:19:10And he was really looking forward to seeing you all.
00:19:14I could tell when he picked me up.
00:19:16He was excited about it.
00:19:21Floor roll.
00:19:24You know, we've got plenty of other rolls.
00:19:36What's this?
00:19:38I don't know.
00:19:40I don't know.
00:19:42What's this?
00:19:44I don't know.
00:19:46What's this?
00:19:48I don't know.
00:19:50What's this?
00:19:52I don't know.
00:19:54What's this?
00:19:56I don't know.
00:19:58What's this?
00:20:00I don't know.
00:20:02What's this?
00:20:04I don't know.
00:20:07What's this?
00:20:21Breaking and entering.
00:20:23I didn't take you for the type.
00:20:26No breaking, it's just entering if the door is already open.
00:20:36I'm scared to explain this.
00:20:38That is the coolest picture of me in the entire room, so thanks for that.
00:20:43You're very welcome.
00:20:45I used to be a gamer before it was a cool thing hipsters in Brooklyn did.
00:20:49RPG board games, you dress up and act out all the parts, it's a whole thing.
00:20:54Ah, so the wrath of Gorgodom suddenly makes sense.
00:20:57Gorgodom never stood a chance against me.
00:21:00Okay.
00:21:04Good night, Sir William.
00:21:11The bathroom is the other way, m'lady.
00:21:22Alright, I forgot how you take your eggs.
00:21:24Scramble.
00:21:26Just like you had them every day as a kid.
00:21:27I know, I know, but I remember the bacon, extra crispy, dad too.
00:21:30Extra crispy, that is correct.
00:21:32Wow, what's going on in here?
00:21:34William's cooking up a storm.
00:21:36You want to take a chance and try some?
00:21:38No thanks, I'm all set.
00:21:40William, meet me at the community center in an hour.
00:21:42You got it.
00:21:44We'll get to see what all the fuss is about.
00:21:46Gotta find the Christmas spirit somewhere.
00:21:48Have a nice day.
00:21:50Thanks, hon.
00:21:52Let the games begin.
00:21:57Let's do it.
00:22:15It's December again, and your winner of the Undisputed contest is...
00:22:19...Mabel.
00:22:20What ever happened to the rest of the year It went by so fast I barely could see
00:22:41Now I'm calling all angels high
00:22:54I'll be fine, I'll be fine
00:22:56I'll be fine, I'll be fine
00:23:01I want that Christmas spirit again
00:23:11I want that Christmas spirit again
00:23:19I want that Christmas spirit again
00:23:26I want that Christmas spirit again
00:23:40I find myself wandering downtown
00:23:45Window shopping, listening to the sound
00:23:50From some street crier caroling through the air
00:23:55And the smell of the big Christmas tree in the street
00:24:02Here comes the Christmas spirit again
00:24:12I'll be fine, I'll be fine
00:24:16I'll be fine, I'll be fine
00:24:20I'll be fine, I'll be fine
00:24:24I want that Christmas spirit again
00:24:31I want that Christmas spirit again
00:24:40The one place in my heart that will stay from the start
00:24:55You know I'm glad to tell you my friend
00:25:01I found that Christmas spirit, that Christmas spirit again
00:25:12I found that Christmas spirit, that Christmas spirit again
00:25:24I'm telling you Ruth should be named Ruthless
00:25:27She's too fast with those knitting needles, I don't trust her
00:25:29We're just intimidated by strong women
00:25:31With the needle skills of a hibachi chef, yes
00:25:33Hey you two
00:25:35We come seeking cookies and scones
00:25:39Oh my gosh you guys, this place is amazing, it's just so...
00:25:43I don't know
00:25:47Well thank you kindly
00:25:49That's yours right over there, great, thank you
00:25:55What's this?
00:25:57That is our town's big annual event
00:25:59We set up a bakery with some gaming tables and sell some sweet treats
00:26:03We're blessed
00:26:05Come in, we'll need our best gamer
00:26:07Why does it say last ever?
00:26:09Um...
00:26:11That question requires a drink
00:26:15Thank you
00:26:25This weekend
00:26:27Oh hi
00:26:29Thank you so much
00:26:31Merry Christmas
00:26:35We got a great deal
00:26:37Month to month leases for the place that we get the business going
00:26:41We knew it would take a while to start making a profit but
00:26:45Actually things went better than expected
00:26:49Then
00:26:51A couple months ago
00:26:53Mrs. Harley passed away and
00:26:57The building got left to her kids
00:26:59They don't live in town, they're selling
00:27:01So we either have to buy the building
00:27:05Or close up shop and we just don't have enough for the down payment
00:27:09How much are we talking about here?
00:27:11We need at least $15,000
00:27:15I can help you out
00:27:17How much would you need to get started?
00:27:19No
00:27:21I appreciate it but
00:27:23We know the risk in starting our own business
00:27:25This is how it goes
00:27:27You can't just give up, I can give you at least a couple thousand
00:27:29Will, stop
00:27:31We've already made the decision, alright?
00:27:33And what do you care anyway?
00:27:35I remember you flying into town when we opened the place up
00:27:37Sorry, it's just hard to see it ending
00:27:43This was a place we poured our hearts into
00:27:49And we're gonna give it a really fun and fitting furlough
00:27:53Speaking of farewells
00:27:55We have a small child to get to bed
00:27:57Yeah
00:27:59We'll see you soon
00:28:01Yeah, goodnight
00:28:03Thanks for drinks, thank you guys
00:28:05Have a safe
00:28:19Seriously
00:28:21You've dumped every holiday client
00:28:23Skipped off his holiday parties
00:28:25Didn't you accidentally show up to work on Thanksgiving Day 2019?
00:28:29Anybody could have made that mistake
00:28:31How you guys doing?
00:28:33Get you anything else?
00:28:35Time for a drink?
00:28:37Dr. Joan, founder of Heart Healthy Holiday Cleanse would say
00:28:39There is never a good time for a drink
00:28:41I'm so sorry but I say now's a great time
00:28:43Do you have a pinot grigio?
00:28:45Should do
00:28:47I'll just take your winter spiciest Christmas ale on tap
00:28:49Will, we are looking for the Christmas spirit
00:28:51Not spirits
00:28:53I don't see a difference
00:28:55Good point, I'll take one too
00:28:57Thank you
00:28:59So
00:29:01Tell me the scoop
00:29:03Why does it seem like you never let yourself have any fun?
00:29:07Look, Will
00:29:09My family isn't like yours
00:29:11We never had game nights or fancy breakfast
00:29:17My dad died when I was 10
00:29:19And
00:29:21My mother, God bless her, she did the best she could
00:29:23But
00:29:25Holidays were a luxury we couldn't afford
00:29:27Thank you
00:29:33Before my dad died
00:29:35My grandmother would come home
00:29:37Every year for the whole season
00:29:39She would take me ice skating
00:29:41And tell me everything she knew
00:29:43Her and I would skate together every Christmas Eve
00:29:45Before my dad
00:29:47And my mom would come and join us
00:29:49You know
00:29:51Something about the ice and the lights
00:29:53And being with my family
00:29:55Being with my family
00:29:57All together in that moment
00:29:59It felt perfect
00:30:05Anyways
00:30:07As I got older
00:30:09Those things stopped
00:30:11And for a while the holidays were really hard for me
00:30:13So I just decided to
00:30:17I don't know, ignore it all
00:30:21I don't know what to say
00:30:23It's fine
00:30:29So what's your secret?
00:30:33What?
00:30:35I'm not the only one here on a mission to find the Christmas spirit
00:30:39Why haven't you been back to see this wonderful family in so long?
00:30:41Alright then
00:30:43I thought I would never leave this place
00:30:49There's always been a dire in Cringle Lake
00:30:51I figured
00:30:53After I graduated high school
00:30:55I'd get a decent job
00:30:57Marry
00:30:59Kids
00:31:01I'm sorry, you married with kids?
00:31:03Kids?
00:31:05Yeah, I had it all mapped out by the time I was 16
00:31:07Alright
00:31:09Even had a girl
00:31:11Oh I see, this is about a girl
00:31:13What can I say
00:31:15I was young and completely confused
00:31:17She broke my heart
00:31:19She broke my heart
00:31:21So you just ran away?
00:31:23Yeah
00:31:25I guess so
00:31:27But
00:31:29Being back here I can see how much I've missed
00:31:31I wish we could do something for them
00:31:33Who?
00:31:35Alex and Oliver
00:31:37Their bakery, it's not right what's happening to them
00:31:39Alex is never going to accept my help
00:31:41At least
00:31:43Not in time to save the bakery
00:31:45He's never going to accept our help
00:31:47What?
00:31:49Yeah
00:31:51Oh god
00:31:53What's your plan?
00:32:01I like that
00:32:03I like that
00:32:19Nope, too far
00:32:21Okay
00:32:27Way too far
00:32:33One last hurrah
00:32:35If it's going to be the last dance
00:32:37Might as well go for it
00:32:39Yes
00:32:41Faith
00:32:43What do you think?
00:32:47Where are you going to get a dunk tank?
00:32:49Actually we found it at a local
00:32:51On service too
00:32:53We'll be over to install it
00:32:55After the tree hunt
00:32:59This is going to be simple
00:33:01Delaware and I
00:33:03Developed a whole new system
00:33:05This time
00:33:07The barbers screw me
00:33:09Every year
00:33:11Not
00:33:13This year
00:33:15Do you think we could set up some time
00:33:17To work on the bakery thing after this?
00:33:19Track suits get reveribed
00:33:21We got a 44 alpha headlight
00:33:23On the blue spruce
00:33:25Everything's sitting pretty here
00:33:2710-4 Jango
00:33:29I think we've done a lot of good work
00:33:31It'll be fun to take the night off
00:33:33Besides
00:33:35It's a big night for my family
00:33:37And my dad
00:33:39Because the thing is
00:33:41The barbers always screw him
00:33:43Yeah, bet
00:33:45You hear that gentlemen?
00:33:47Everything is going according to plan
00:33:51Where's Del?
00:33:53He's on site
00:33:55On site, but not in sight
00:33:57Don't tell me he's wearing that ridiculous ghillie suit again
00:33:59What?
00:34:01Son, this ghillie's been in my family
00:34:03For four generations
00:34:05I could spend three weeks out here and the birds wouldn't notice
00:34:07Over
00:34:09Why don't you prove it?
00:34:11I heard that. Over
00:34:13As I was saying, old man barbers
00:34:15Never going to see us coming
00:34:17Will, Alex
00:34:19You need to take the high ground
00:34:21Right? We need your speed
00:34:23Delaware
00:34:25We've got a visual on the prize
00:34:27As we speak
00:34:29But we're going to need a distraction
00:34:31Over
00:34:33Becca
00:34:35This is where you come in
00:34:37Okay
00:34:39Don't you already have a Christmas tree?
00:34:41Yeah, that's the holding tree
00:34:43We put that up after Thanksgiving
00:34:45Until dad gets the real tree
00:34:47Just before Christmas
00:34:49I've never heard of a holding tree
00:34:51Well, welcome to Cringle Lake
00:34:53Now, I'm going to need 110%
00:34:55Tonight
00:34:57From everyone, right?
00:34:59This year is our year
00:35:03Introducing
00:35:05Princess Maggie
00:35:07The special little camel, Flourish
00:35:09Thank you for inviting me
00:35:11To this beautiful tree hunt
00:35:13Good luck to you
00:35:15And you and you and you
00:35:17And you
00:35:19I like your costume
00:35:21Thank you, princess
00:35:23Alright, my dear
00:35:25Good luck, guys. Time for bed, you
00:35:27Goodnight, Maggie
00:35:29Goodnight
00:35:31We roll out in 015
00:35:33Wear your mittens
00:35:35It's cold out
00:35:43You in position?
00:35:45Yeah, dad
00:35:47How much longer do you think this will be?
00:35:49Refer to me by my call name, please
00:35:51Roger that
00:35:53Viper
00:35:57Hi, hello
00:35:59Huh
00:36:01Send in the seagull, Viper
00:36:03Copy that, Jango
00:36:05Hello, ma'am
00:36:07What are you doing here this fine evening?
00:36:09I'm taking this tree
00:36:11Is that Becca?
00:36:13Maybe
00:36:15You know I like her
00:36:20You like like her?
00:36:22How will this woman from the city?
00:36:24It has no tree lot permit
00:36:26She is taking the mighty spruce
00:36:28No one can stop me
00:36:30I don't know
00:36:32I haven't really had feelings for anyone since
00:36:37You gonna see Trista while you're in town?
00:36:41You guys ever think about if these trees have feelings?
00:36:45I don't see why I would
00:36:47Well, for what it's worth, I
00:36:49Think you should go for it
00:36:51With Becca
00:36:59Nobody knows what that is, dad
00:37:01Let's go
00:37:03Oh, they got it
00:37:05Nice
00:37:07Sorry, mom
00:37:09Need help?
00:37:11Don't you worry, just stand right there
00:37:13Be careful of the cabinet
00:37:15Be careful of the cabinet
00:37:33Really is a great tree, isn't it?
00:37:45Award, award!
00:37:49Hi, yeah, let's get you to bed, honey, okay?
00:37:53You guys can handle this, right?
00:37:55We'll finish it, mom
00:37:57Thank you
00:37:59Congratulations, baby
00:38:01Goodnight, you two
00:38:03Goodnight, Margaret
00:38:07Well, can I ask you something?
00:38:09Sure
00:38:11It's a secret
00:38:13Can I sneak some of that
00:38:15Cherimisu?
00:38:17What? So much for the happy holiday clans
00:38:19What would Dr. Joan say?
00:38:21Dr. Joan may or may not have been named a
00:38:23Suspect in a high-profile fraudulent scheme
00:38:25Turns out she's
00:38:27Just Joan
00:38:29Never trust a
00:38:31Joan
00:38:33Last one
00:38:35Here, take it
00:38:41Let's sign it up, shall we?
00:38:43Yeah
00:38:49Ow!
00:38:51No!
00:39:05Well, this is
00:39:07Uncomfortable
00:39:19I think I've proven my point
00:39:21Don't question the ghillie
00:39:23Smoke bombs!
00:39:25Ba-da-da-da-da-ba-da-da-da
00:39:27Smoke bombs!
00:39:29Ba-da-da-da-da-ba-da-da-da
00:39:35Cherimisu?
00:39:37Definitely
00:39:41Just one more
00:39:49This bad boy
00:39:51Is ready to go
00:39:53How about that, little brother?
00:39:55I turn around and I see it in action
00:39:57You guys need anything else?
00:39:59Looks like we're all set
00:40:05Come on, this is for you, man
00:40:07It's for you
00:40:09Come on
00:40:11Love this idea, Becca
00:40:13I'm so glad you can repay me by giving me your
00:40:15Vegan cookie dough recipe
00:40:17It's the only one I've had that's actually
00:40:19Edible?
00:40:21You know, that recipe, I'm afraid
00:40:23There you go, Digital. Too many hackers
00:40:25But, maybe
00:40:27I can mail it to you, though
00:40:29You're such a jerk, smile sometimes
00:40:31Ugh, please
00:40:33I really enjoyed having you here for the holidays
00:40:35Hope you've been having a good time
00:40:37I have. No one does Christmas quite like the Dyers
00:40:39Well, that's true
00:40:41Come on, honey
00:40:43Oh, don't touch the hair
00:40:49Is this normal?
00:40:51Guys, not in the store
00:40:53Oh, my God
00:40:59Come on, Margaret
00:41:13Come on, you're up
00:41:15Hey, Pete
00:41:19I don't know how many of you
00:41:21Give me your cookie
00:41:33Overtime, I am in overtime
00:41:35Mr. Chris
00:41:37I didn't expect to see you here
00:41:39Just checking out my list twice
00:41:41Well, I'm glad
00:41:43I'm glad you get the chance to see the world
00:41:45Please, enjoy yourself
00:41:47And don't forget to try the cookies over there
00:41:49They are incredible
00:41:57Come on, guys
00:42:01Ugh, come on
00:42:03This is my day job?
00:42:05Really?
00:42:07Oh, come on
00:42:09Oh, man
00:42:13Oh, you are not cut out for this
00:42:15You paid money for that sweater?
00:42:17How can you be so bad at something?
00:42:21Is your mom single?
00:42:25Did we leave the target too hard to hit?
00:42:27I don't know
00:42:29But somebody's got to put that Santa on his place
00:42:31I know a guy
00:42:33Ho, ho, ho
00:42:37What are you doing?
00:42:39You still got it?
00:42:43Hold this
00:42:47Oh, come on
00:42:49You got an arm? Oh, you're calling that an arm?
00:42:59Ho, ho, ho
00:43:03Ho, ho, ho
00:43:09Yeah
00:43:11Okay
00:43:13Okay
00:43:17All right
00:43:19Already
00:43:21You have to reach $20,000
00:43:23For the 24th of March
00:43:25I think we're about at 15
00:43:29Oh, big man, huh?
00:43:31You can throw it at Santa
00:43:33I thought we were friends
00:43:35Huh? Huh? No, no, no, no
00:43:37Ho, ho, ho
00:43:53Ha
00:43:59The man can throw a ball, huh?
00:44:01He was an Allstate pitcher for three years
00:44:03I figured he'd give that Santa intruder what he deserved
00:44:07I was hoping we could talk about my future.
00:44:21No.
00:44:22I have to get going.
00:44:23But I'd be more than happy to meet with you and hear everything you have to say when we
00:44:25get back to Chicago.
00:44:26Okay.
00:44:27I understand.
00:44:28Until then, rest well and enjoy the holidays.
00:44:32I will.
00:44:33Gentlemen, do you have any carrots by chance?
00:44:36Uh, no.
00:44:37Ah, big tarts.
00:44:38All right, bye.
00:44:39Hey.
00:44:40Hi.
00:44:41Hi.
00:44:42Um, what was that about with Chris?
00:44:43Nothing.
00:44:44Are you sure?
00:44:45It looked serious.
00:44:46You can tell me.
00:44:47He just said he wishes he could have seen me play baseball when I was younger.
00:44:48Okay.
00:44:49Ready?
00:44:50Mm-hmm.
00:44:51I'm fighting the urge to make it rain.
00:45:14Well, please do resist.
00:45:15enough sweeping to do as it is.
00:45:21What's this? The community supports you more than you know Alex.
00:45:30Is this for real? Oh my god. How did you do this? Back up, put together the
00:45:39campaign online and spread the word.
00:45:44There's enough there for the down payment. Bring it like it's spoken.
00:45:49They want this bakery here for a long time.
00:45:55Will. Becca, thank you.
00:46:02I don't know how can we repay you. You don't need to repay us Alex. It wasn't us.
00:46:08It was everyone. It's amazing what can happen when people come together for
00:46:12something they really love. Just embrace it now.
00:46:19Oliver.
00:46:24I think it's time to make it rain.
00:47:38I never imagined I would see you like this. So you come here to skate or you
00:48:00just here to talk to me? No, no, no. Skating was the one sport I did not
00:48:04excel at. There is no way you're getting me out there. So what you're saying is I
00:48:11win.
00:48:18Come on man. All right, all right, all right, you win. Come back.
00:48:26That's better. Hey. What's up? I know it's stupid and I already asked you, but did
00:48:37Mr. Chris say something to you about New York? It's what I told you. Baseball
00:48:42chatter and you said we'd talk when I got back. What did he say to you? He just said he'd
00:48:47talk to me when he got back. So what's the problem?
00:48:52No problem. What is up with these men? Actually, they're gloves. Why? You like
00:48:59them? You want them?
00:49:03We got to stop finding ourselves in these situations. Del, is that you? I volunteer for the neighborhood watch. Followed you two in. You aware of the curfew here?
00:49:33In Kringle Lake? No. Well, it's more of an unspoken rule. Either way, I called the
00:49:40cop before I knew it was you two, so you better skedaddle. Hey, can I get a ride?
00:49:50Yes, that's a yes. Thank you so much for your help. It turned out really well.
00:49:58The truck's almost here. Let me help you. While I'm springing it around.
00:50:08Here she is now.
00:50:11Well, I heard you were running around here. I didn't think I'd get to see you. I need a...
00:50:32Yeah. Hey, yeah, sorry I didn't call. How have you been? Well, I'm married. Crazy, right?
00:50:45Yeah, crazy. And his name is Isaac Thomas Warren. He's nine months. Wow, look at that.
00:51:02So what about you? How have you been? I figured you'd be all settled down by now.
00:51:06No, just living the bachelor life in the city, actually. It's funny how things change, huh?
00:51:12Yeah, it is. Well, I better go help Blake with the truck. It was really good to see you, Will.
00:51:20Hey, Trissa. I'm glad everything worked out. Thanks, Will. And Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas.
00:51:34Hey, I was thinking... Oh, okay.
00:51:53Hey, kiddo. Come on in. Grab a seat. You want some coffee? Yeah, sure. Thank you.
00:52:08Black, okay? Sure, that's great. Thanks. I'm still doctoring mine.
00:52:12So...
00:52:19Delaware told me about the little break-in at the ice arena last night.
00:52:24Delaware seems to be everywhere these days. Gotta watch out for that one.
00:52:33Mom, I need to tell you something. What's on your mind? You know that job I've been talking
00:52:39about the last few months in New York? Yeah, I recall reading an email.
00:52:47Mom, I got the job. Mr. Chris told me yesterday at the bakery. Oh, that's fantastic.
00:53:00The thing is...
00:53:04I don't want to move.
00:53:05Yeah, I know. That sounds crazy. I've wanted this job for months. It's the only thing I've
00:53:13put any amount of effort or care into recently. And I haven't even told her.
00:53:20I have to be responsible, right? I have to take the job.
00:53:24This isn't about a job. Nor even about a girl, really.
00:53:28It's about you, Liam.
00:53:32Growing up, you were a sweet boy.
00:53:37And you were an athletic one. But it's like you never learned how to balance that.
00:53:46You were the kid who would rather be home playing games all night with your family than going out
00:53:50to whatever party your friends were throwing.
00:53:52You were the kid who would rather be home playing games all night with
00:53:55your family than going out to whatever party your friends were throwing.
00:54:03Not coming home in five years?
00:54:08That's not you.
00:54:13The nightlife, the women. I'm not judging.
00:54:18That too-cool attitude? That wasn't my son.
00:54:32The last time I watched you give your heart to someone, you laughed like someone should.
00:54:40And you got heart.
00:54:43That's just how it goes sometimes.
00:54:48And when you ran away from that pain, you ran away from everyone and all of us.
00:54:56I don't know who you've been trying to be since then, but I do know
00:54:59that when I see you with that girl upstairs, I see my son again.
00:55:11I've really missed him.
00:55:18It's like you come running back home, Will.
00:55:29What's going on?
00:55:30Oh, the in-call. It's been 10 days since my room's ready. I figured I'd get out of your hair.
00:55:36Tell your parents I'm so grateful for their hospitality.
00:55:39Becca, what are you doing?
00:55:39I hope you have a Merry Christmas. See you in Chicago. Or New York.
00:55:44Hey, look, I was going to tell you-
00:55:46Tell me what? I'm just a fellow co-worker. You don't owe me anything.
00:55:50You should be happy, Will. You win, I lose.
00:55:53It's what I get for taking my eye off the prize.
00:55:55Come on, let's just go back inside.
00:55:56You lied to me.
00:55:58You played me, and it's my fault for thinking you were the same lazy,
00:56:00arrogant, two-timing jerk you were in Chicago.
00:58:16How do you fix a broken-
00:58:31How do you fix a-
00:58:32Fix a broken-
00:58:32Pizza.
00:58:34With tomato paste!
00:59:16I win again! I win again! I win again!
00:59:28I thought you said you were a gamer.
00:59:30Not that kind of gamer.
00:59:32You want anything?
00:59:34More cookies, please.
00:59:36No more cookies, please, young lady.
00:59:40Girls gotta try.
00:59:41Hey, Will, do you want another game?
00:59:46Mm-mm. I'm good.
00:59:48All right.
01:00:06You're welcome.
01:00:11No, I get what you're saying.
01:00:21I just think this campaign could use a little-
01:00:24I know it's a quick turnaround,
01:00:26but I think we can boost the CTR with a better graphic.
01:00:32Well, if this designer's not going to be Johnny on the spot,
01:00:34then he's going to be Johnny in the unemployment line.
01:00:37We need a 12-hour turnaround.
01:00:40Perfect.
01:00:41I'll be in touch.
01:01:11So...
01:01:32Come in.
01:01:38Hey, you're back!
01:01:40Earlier than I expected, but I'm glad we have a chance to talk.
01:01:43Look, there's something I want to tell you about the New York position.
01:01:46Sir, if I could.
01:01:52In my time here at Crisscross, I'd like to think I've become
01:01:54somewhat of an expert on client and campaign management.
01:01:57Scratch that. I know I've become an expert.
01:02:10But the truth is, Mr. Criss,
01:02:17this New York job is new and exciting and overwhelming.
01:02:22You need someone who will put their whole heart into it.
01:02:25You need someone who is competitive and kind
01:02:27and sees the best in every person and every opportunity.
01:02:33I believe that William Dyer is that person.
01:02:40I just want you to know that I look forward to continuing my work here
01:02:43and contributing to this team with everything I've got.
01:02:48Well then, wonderful pitch, Becca, as always.
01:02:54But as I was saying, there's something I need to tell you about the position in New York.
01:02:59There are always two positions, one for William and one for you.
01:03:40Oh.
01:04:05Um, hi.
01:04:07Did those invoices come back?
01:04:11Oh, I told those guys 6 p.m. Eastern time.
01:04:14I should have followed up with an email.
01:04:15What was I thinking?
01:04:16Jeez.
01:04:17Mia, Mia, chill.
01:04:19I was wondering if you'd like to go shopping with me tonight?
01:04:25Like for work?
01:04:26No.
01:04:29As friends.
01:04:33Um, yeah, that sounds fun.
01:04:38What are you wearing?
01:04:39What are you wearing?
01:04:40I don't know what to wear.
01:04:42Okay, I'll meet you there then.
01:04:45Okay, I like fun, that's great.
01:04:46I'm coming now.
01:04:48♪♪♪
01:04:51♪♪♪
01:04:56♪♪♪
01:05:01♪♪♪
01:05:06There you go, I think that's the last of it.
01:05:08Thanks, hon.
01:05:10♪♪♪
01:05:15You gonna get off the couch today?
01:05:17Got any plans?
01:05:19Nope.
01:05:20Alex and Oliver are coming over with Maggie in a little bit,
01:05:22so why don't you get changed and clean up?
01:05:24It's Christmas Eve, Mom.
01:05:26I'm wearing the pajamas.
01:05:29Cheer up, Will.
01:05:31Just think about how fun and exciting New York's gonna be.
01:05:34He's not happy, and he's not gonna be happy
01:05:36until he talks to what's-her-name.
01:05:38Becca.
01:05:39I know her name.
01:05:44I don't think she wants to talk to me.
01:05:47Especially now.
01:05:49No.
01:05:50She wants you to talk to her.
01:05:54Express your feelings.
01:05:57Is this blue spruce sitting in this living room
01:05:59because I waited for it to come to me?
01:06:02Really, Dad?
01:06:03I'm just saying, son.
01:06:06You could sit here and hope that things magically work out.
01:06:11You could run away from it all to New York,
01:06:14but we all know how that works out.
01:06:17Or you can go tell her what became obvious
01:06:23to the rest of us.
01:06:26That you love her.
01:06:30So what's it gonna be?
01:06:42It's a great tree, Dad.
01:06:45Merry Christmas, Mom.
01:06:47I love you. I have to go.
01:06:49I love you. Go get her.
01:06:54Nicely done, Dad.
01:06:56I'm proud of you.
01:07:02It is a great tree, isn't it?
01:07:04It sure is.
01:07:15Becca, it's me. Please call me back.
01:07:18I'm sorry. Please, just call me back.
01:07:21Please.
01:07:22I'm coming back to Chicago.
01:07:24Please just pick up the phone. Please.
01:07:26All right? I hope that I see you soon.
01:07:28Call me back. Bye.
01:07:33Come on!
01:07:34Come on!
01:07:35Come on!
01:07:36Come on!
01:07:37Come on!
01:07:38Come on!
01:07:39Come on!
01:07:40Come on!
01:07:41Come on!
01:07:43Come on!
01:07:49You are enough.
01:07:55I will get that promotion.
01:08:01Mia?
01:08:12Uh...
01:08:17You know, I really hate saying this,
01:08:20but you got a lot of nerve calling me William Dyer.
01:08:23I'm looking for Becca.
01:08:24I don't know where she's at.
01:08:26It's Christmas Eve, dude.
01:08:27I'm about to head to my sister's place.
01:08:29I just need to talk to her.
01:08:31About?
01:08:38Becca!
01:08:43Becca, I really need to talk to you!
01:08:52Becca!
01:09:13Becca!
01:09:28I'm sorry.
01:09:38I'm sorry.
01:09:43I can't believe you weren't going to tell me.
01:09:48I can't do this right now, Will.
01:09:51Congratulations.
01:09:54On New York.
01:10:02Come on, Becca.
01:10:03We're both going to be moving to New York.
01:10:05We can have the same relationship we did in Chicago.
01:10:08No, we can't.
01:10:10Can you just come over here so I can tell you how I feel?
01:10:14That one's got her bad.
01:10:17How do I know you're telling the truth?
01:10:19You just relax for a little bit and just get over this.
01:10:25You would love that, wouldn't you?
01:10:27Relax, what does it matter anyway?
01:10:30I should have known you didn't really care about me
01:10:32because you don't care about anyone or anything.
01:10:35That's not true.
01:10:37Just let me enjoy my Christmas Eve, please.
01:10:40I will see you in New York.
01:10:42Just tell her how you feel, man!
01:10:44Here, son.
01:10:46You're going to need these.
01:10:59Go figure.
01:11:08What are you doing here, Will?
01:11:11I'm doing what I should have done
01:11:12the last time I saw you on the ice.
01:11:16What's that?
01:11:18I should have said that I'm sorry I lied.
01:11:23I shouldn't have.
01:11:26And I won't do it again.
01:11:28Okay.
01:11:29And I love you, Becca.
01:11:31Then what about me?
01:11:34And I love you, Becca.
01:11:36Then what if I don't love you?
01:11:39What if I can't even trust you?
01:11:43What if you're just the next person to leave me?
01:11:46I'm not.
01:11:49I'm here.
01:11:52And you know it.
01:11:56And you love me anyways, it doesn't even matter.
01:12:00And how do you know that?
01:12:05Because you're wearing my scarf.
01:12:15Yeah.
01:12:18You've got me tired, and you better not let me go.
01:12:24It looks better on you anyway.
01:12:26I know.
01:12:32I feel it, don't you?
01:12:35The Christmas spirit?
01:12:37No, cold front coming in.
01:12:39You better get inside, kids.
01:12:42What are you doing, Mr. Chris?
01:12:45You want to come out and celebrate with us?
01:12:46Yeah, come on.
01:12:48Oh, no.
01:12:49You two go on.
01:12:50I've got to get a move on.
01:12:51It's the business side of the year.
