00:00You seem cheerful lately.
00:02And it's Christmas!
00:04If we can get the post office recognized as a National Historic Site,
00:08no one will be able to turn it into some eyesore of an office building.
00:11It's not an eyesore.
00:12Noah Harrington.
00:13Darla, he is the enemy.
00:15Can I get a black coffee to go, please?
00:17We're out.
00:18More coffee?
00:19I need the people of this town to listen to my proposal.
00:22How can you entertain the idea of tearing the post office down?
00:25So compromise.
00:26Work with him.
00:27I think that's a great suggestion.
00:29No, I don't. I don't.
00:30No.
00:33I found this old mailbox at the post office.
00:36With letters to Santa from 1992.
00:38You want to play Santa?
00:39Make some wishes come true?
00:41I'll be a few decades late.
00:42I don't even remember what I asked for.
00:44Wow.
00:45He was really committed to winning over this town, huh?
00:48This is going to be a lot of deliveries.
00:49Merry Christmas.
00:50Or maybe he's just committed to winning you over.
00:53You're falling for him.
00:54No, I'm not.
00:55She doesn't even like me.
00:56Right.
00:58Why is the post office so important to you?
01:00I promised my grandfather that I would preserve the post office at all costs.
01:05The more I learn about the history of this town, the more I feel a little apprehensive.
01:08Enough to put the building plans on hold permanently.
01:11We have to move forward.
01:13We're done here, Mr. Harrington.
01:15I just complicated things.
01:17By falling for the enemy.
01:21I wish there was a way that we could both get what we want.
01:24I really wish there was.
01:25Unfortunately, no.
01:28I've seen the way that he looks at you.
01:30And the way that you light up when you're around him.
01:32That's special.
01:35Just that whatever happens, I really enjoyed my time with you.
01:39Me too.
01:40We should get back to the letters.
01:41Yeah.
