00:08:26,941 --> 00:08:29,638
You'd think you could just put
up a tree and call it a day.
178
00:08:29,639 --> 00:08:31,031
Mm, I think most people want
179
00:08:31,032 --> 00:08:33,120
a little more Christmas
cheer than that.
180
00:08:33,121 --> 00:08:34,643
No, they want reassurance
181
00:08:34,644 --> 00:08:36,515
that pain doesn't exist
at Christmas.
182
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:39,301
Wow, who climbed up
your chimney?
183
00:08:39,388 --> 00:08:41,171
I'm just bein' honest.
184
00:08:41,172 --> 00:08:43,304
It's widely known that Christmas
is the most stressful time
185
00:08:43,305 --> 00:08:46,525
of the year for most people.
186
00:08:46,526 --> 00:08:48,483
Yeah, I was just really hoping
to be alone this Christmas.
187
00:08:48,484 --> 00:08:50,399
[soft music]
188
00:08:51,705 --> 00:08:52,967
Same.
189
00:08:59,626 --> 00:09:02,716
Mason! It's us!
190
00:09:02,803 --> 00:09:05,021
- Oh, hello again.
- Hi.
191
00:09:05,022 --> 00:09:07,503
- Are you visiting the Parkers?
- Oh, not visiting.
192
00:09:07,677 --> 00:09:09,678
They hired me to plan
their holiday.
193
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,637
I'm Andie.
We didn't officially meet.
194
00:09:11,638 --> 00:09:13,029
- Hi. Hi.
- Nice to meet you.
195
00:09:13,030 --> 00:09:15,902
Hi. Well, we heard
Mason was house-sitting,
196
00:09:15,903 --> 00:09:19,427
so we thought we'd stop by,
drop off a little extra pie.
197
00:09:19,428 --> 00:09:21,169
I knew I smelled
somethin' delicious.
198
00:09:21,256 --> 00:09:22,561
- [Sarah chuckles]
- You two are my favorite.
199
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:24,475
- Oh...
- Aw, that's really nice.
200
00:09:24,476 --> 00:09:26,477
Well, we know how hard
this time of year can be
201
00:09:26,478 --> 00:09:28,392
with everything that happened.
202
00:09:28,393 --> 00:09:30,264
Oh, how is that awning holding
up after last week's rain?
203
00:09:30,265 --> 00:09:33,267
Well, so far so good,
thanks to you.
204
00:09:33,268 --> 00:09:35,574
Mason, re-did our deck
last summer.
205
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:37,097
- Wonderful contractor.
- Yeah.
206
00:09:37,098 --> 00:09:39,404
Oh, so he's not just
a house manager?
207
00:09:40,841 --> 00:09:42,363
Um, a man of many talents.
208
00:09:42,364 --> 00:09:44,584
[chuckles]
Just not Christmas.
209
00:09:45,846 --> 00:09:47,717
Christmas isn't really a talent.
210
00:09:47,891 --> 00:09:50,024
[clicks tongue] Uh, wait till
you see what I can do with it.
211
00:09:50,111 --> 00:09:53,287
What exactly
does a Christmas planner do?
212
00:09:53,288 --> 00:09:56,421
Didn't know you could hire
someone to do it for you.
213
00:09:56,552 --> 00:09:58,380
Well, I usually decorate
for a few days
214
00:09:58,554 --> 00:10:02,426
and then I help the family plan
an itinerary for the holiday.
215
00:10:02,427 --> 00:10:04,559
Oh, well, we're with
the community club,
216
00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:07,389
so every year we put on
the Holly Hill Holiday Hop
217
00:10:07,476 --> 00:10:08,956
at our cafe downstairs.
218
00:10:09,043 --> 00:10:11,174
Say that five times fast.
219
00:10:11,175 --> 00:10:15,397
Holly Hill Holiday Hop,
Holly Hill Holiday Hop,
220
00:10:15,484 --> 00:10:17,354
Holly Hill Holiday Hop.
221
00:10:17,355 --> 00:10:19,530
[all laugh]
222
00:10:19,531 --> 00:10:21,445
It's a fun party.
223
00:10:21,446 --> 00:10:23,883
O-oh, you should add that
to the Parker's schedule.
224
00:10:23,884 --> 00:10:25,319
Absolutely.
225
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,277
So I'm sure that you two
have a lot to do,
226
00:10:27,278 --> 00:10:30,106
so we'll leave you to it.
Come on, Jerry.
227
00:10:30,107 --> 00:10:31,499
- Bye.
- Buh-bye.
228
00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:32,979
- [Sarah] Bye.
- Thanks for stopping by.
229
00:10:32,980 --> 00:10:34,241
And thank you again for the pie.
230
00:10:34,242 --> 00:10:36,243
[Sarah] You're welcome.
231
00:10:36,244 --> 00:10:38,724
It really does smell good.
232
00:10:38,725 --> 00:10:40,117
Yes, I'm really gonna enjoy it.
233
00:10:43,730 --> 00:10:44,731
[whispers]
Okay.
234
00:10:49,387 --> 00:10:51,651
[ladder clatters]
235
00:10:53,783 --> 00:10:55,262
What are you
doodlin' over there?
236
00:10:55,263 --> 00:10:56,829
Uh, I am not doodling.
237
00:10:56,830 --> 00:11:00,223
I like to visualize
a plan for each room.
238
00:11:00,224 --> 00:11:01,704
Does Christmas decoration
placement
239
00:11:01,791 --> 00:11:03,706
really need
to be that thought out?
240
00:11:03,837 --> 00:11:05,359
Mm, did you have a blueprint
241
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,057
when you built
Sarah and Jerry's deck?
242
00:11:07,144 --> 00:11:09,016
Well, sure,
but tha-that's different.
243
00:11:09,103 --> 00:11:10,930
No, you had a plan in your head
and you brought it to life.
244
00:11:10,931 --> 00:11:12,409
How is that any different?
245
00:11:12,410 --> 00:11:15,630
- [phone ringing]
- Ooh. Ah, it's my tree guy.
246
00:11:15,631 --> 00:11:19,025
Hi, Bill.
Are you on your way?
247
00:11:19,026 --> 00:11:21,855
What? It's 45 minutes,
an hour in traffic.
248
00:11:23,857 --> 00:11:25,772
Okay, but I ordered them
a while ago.
249
00:11:28,992 --> 00:11:31,777
Wow. Um... fine.
250
00:11:31,778 --> 00:11:35,737
I will get them somewhere else.
[clears throat]
251
00:11:35,738 --> 00:11:38,697
Oh, uh, most people
don't chomp them like that
252
00:11:38,698 --> 00:11:40,611
unless you want to chip a tooth.
253
00:11:40,612 --> 00:11:43,310
[clicks tongue] Are you having
a Christmas emergency?
254
00:11:43,311 --> 00:11:45,442
Haha, very funny, but yes.
255
00:11:45,443 --> 00:11:48,271
Actually, our tree vendor
won't deliver this far.
256
00:11:48,272 --> 00:11:50,100
Huh, if only there were lots
of places
257
00:11:50,187 --> 00:11:52,145
that sold Christmas trees
in December.
258
00:11:52,146 --> 00:11:53,929
You don't get it.
He is the best of the best.
259
00:11:53,930 --> 00:11:55,365
The freshest pines.
260
00:11:55,366 --> 00:11:56,890
So have your mom
call someone else.
261
00:11:57,891 --> 00:11:59,456
My mom?
262
00:11:59,457 --> 00:12:00,894
Yeah, didn't you say you
ran the company together
263
00:12:00,981 --> 00:12:02,417
and she's great
at finding vendors?
264
00:12:04,375 --> 00:12:07,727
Uh, yeah, she, sh-she can't.
265
00:12:07,814 --> 00:12:09,945
[chews softly] I mean, I haven't
been there in a while,
266
00:12:09,946 --> 00:12:12,208
but there's a great little
tree lot in Holly Hill.
267
00:12:12,209 --> 00:12:14,558
Okay, do they deliver? 'Cause
I can't fit them in my car.
268
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,083
We can take my truck.
269
00:12:16,170 --> 00:12:17,737
Whoa, Mr. I-Hate-Christmas?
270
00:12:18,868 --> 00:12:20,390
[candy cane snapping]
271
00:12:20,391 --> 00:12:23,394
[upbeat music]
272
00:12:24,221 --> 00:12:26,005
[jar clinking]
273
00:12:26,006 --> 00:12:27,223
Oh. Don't tell Jerry.
274
00:12:27,224 --> 00:12:29,269
[laughing]
275
00:12:29,270 --> 00:12:31,053
Okay, I think
I'm already addicted.
276
00:12:31,054 --> 00:12:33,317
Can I have two peppermint
lattes, please?
277
00:12:33,404 --> 00:12:36,319
Oh, one for you
and one for Mason?
278
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,714
Yeah, he's helping me
with the Christmas trees.
279
00:12:38,801 --> 00:12:40,671
Wow, Christmas trees.
280
00:12:40,672 --> 00:12:43,022
Yeah, it's gonna look
amazing in the house.
281
00:12:43,023 --> 00:12:45,981
Oh, no, I meant more like,
282
00:12:45,982 --> 00:12:48,419
"Wow, Mason's helping
with Christmas stuff."
283
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,771
He wouldn't do that
with just anyone.
284
00:12:53,424 --> 00:12:54,556
Good to know.
285
00:12:59,517 --> 00:13:00,954
I guess I didn't realize
286
00:13:01,128 --> 00:13:02,781
that you were gonna buy up
the entire lot.
287
00:13:02,782 --> 00:13:04,478
Yeah, you can never
have too many.
288
00:13:04,479 --> 00:13:07,351
Mason's truck filled
with Christmas trees.
289
00:13:07,438 --> 00:13:08,526
I didn't think
I was gonna see that
290
00:13:08,613 --> 00:13:10,527
- on my dance card this year.
- No.
291
00:13:10,528 --> 00:13:12,791
Uh, these trees are not for me.
Vacuuming up pine needles
292
00:13:12,792 --> 00:13:14,488
is not my idea of a good time.
293
00:13:14,489 --> 00:13:16,316
Well, the good ones don't shed.
294
00:13:16,317 --> 00:13:18,971
- Are you going to introduce us?
- Yes, this is Andie.
295
00:13:18,972 --> 00:13:20,102
She does this professionally.
296
00:13:20,103 --> 00:13:21,713
- Darren. Uh, uh, wait.
- Hi.
297
00:13:21,801 --> 00:13:24,934
I'm sorry, uh,
does what professionally?
298
00:13:25,021 --> 00:13:26,761
Uh, Christmas planner.
The Parkers hired me.
299
00:13:26,762 --> 00:13:28,590
- Ooh, okay, good, 'cause...
- Oh.
300
00:13:28,677 --> 00:13:30,547
[chuckling] I was like, has
it gotten that bad for you?
301
00:13:30,548 --> 00:13:32,245
[Wendy] It's funny.
302
00:13:32,246 --> 00:13:34,943
[laughing] Mason has
the greatest Christmas stories.
303
00:13:34,944 --> 00:13:36,510
[Darren] I'm sure--
[Mason] Okay, guys.
304
00:13:36,511 --> 00:13:38,991
- No, no.
- [Darren] Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
305
00:13:38,992 --> 00:13:41,515
You didn't tell her?
Okay, we're 12.
306
00:13:41,516 --> 00:13:43,778
He's playing Joseph
in the Nativity.
307
00:13:43,779 --> 00:13:46,041
And he's so nervous the night
before, cannot sleep a wink.
308
00:13:46,042 --> 00:13:47,521
[Wendy] Right, so he drinks
all those sodas?
309
00:13:47,522 --> 00:13:49,392
[Darren] All these sodas
to get his energy up.
310
00:13:49,393 --> 00:13:51,351
And that was...
So he's on stage.
311
00:13:51,352 --> 00:13:54,528
Now he has to go behind,
uh, the, uh, manger
312
00:13:54,529 --> 00:13:56,270
- because he's pissed himself.
- Pissed himself.
313
00:13:56,357 --> 00:13:57,836
[both laughing]
314
00:13:57,837 --> 00:13:59,403
[Darren] Ew!
[Wendy] Like the best.
315
00:13:59,577 --> 00:14:00,883
Yep, still funny.
316
00:14:00,970 --> 00:14:02,318
No, I hadn't told
her that story
317
00:14:02,319 --> 00:14:04,016
because nobody needs
to hear that story.
318
00:14:04,017 --> 00:14:05,408
- I think it's a good one.
- Yeah.
319
00:14:05,409 --> 00:14:07,193
So he didn't always
hate Christmas?
320
00:14:07,194 --> 00:14:10,500
Uh, no, no, no.
He, he loved Christmas.
321
00:14:10,501 --> 00:14:11,720
Really?
322
00:14:13,113 --> 00:14:14,157
Look, we really
gotta get goin'.
323
00:14:14,331 --> 00:14:15,766
- Oh, okay.
- Okay. Yes.
324
00:14:15,767 --> 00:14:17,681
Uh, I will let you two
go do your thing.
325
00:14:17,682 --> 00:14:19,249
- Yes, professionally.
- Yeah.
326
00:14:19,336 --> 00:14:20,337
[Wendy] Yes.
327
00:14:22,426 --> 00:14:24,079
- All right, bye.
- Oh, nice to meet you.
328
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,386
- Okay.
- Bye.
329
00:14:26,387 --> 00:14:29,041
- Thanks.
- They're a really cute couple.
330
00:14:29,042 --> 00:14:30,390
Yeah, I've known them
a long time.
331
00:14:30,391 --> 00:14:31,479
They're high school sweethearts.
332
00:14:31,566 --> 00:14:32,914
That's romantic.
333
00:14:32,915 --> 00:14:34,176
[instrumental music]
334
00:14:34,177 --> 00:14:35,309
Yeah.
335
00:14:35,396 --> 00:14:38,138
[birds chirping]
336
00:14:38,225 --> 00:14:39,182
Okay.
337
00:14:45,623 --> 00:14:47,886
[sighs]
Yeah, wow.
338
00:14:47,887 --> 00:14:49,888
- Twelve trees.
- [chuckles]
339
00:14:49,889 --> 00:14:52,239
- We did it.
- A tree in every room.
340
00:14:52,413 --> 00:14:54,502
- So what now?
- Uh, it's late.
341
00:14:54,589 --> 00:14:56,982
I'm just gonna head out.
Thank you for helping.
342
00:14:56,983 --> 00:14:59,201
Christmas tree crisis averted.
343
00:14:59,202 --> 00:15:00,681
Yeah, it's no problem.
344
00:15:00,682 --> 00:15:02,248
It's a lot to take on solo.
345
00:15:02,249 --> 00:15:04,512
Yeah, I don't really
have a choice.
346
00:15:04,599 --> 00:15:07,428
[somber music]

From the minute
that I was born,

she looked for ways
to celebrate each day.

they're cinnamon rolls.

- Yeah, of course.
521
00:23:19,528 --> 00:23:21,835
- Why wouldn't I?
- Okay. If you say so.
522
00:23:21,922 --> 00:23:25,707
I mean, the Parkers
are not even here yet, so...
523
00:23:25,708 --> 00:23:27,535
Well, there's a committee
that I'd have to run it by,
524
00:23:27,536 --> 00:23:29,668
but everything I've seen here,
525
00:23:29,669 --> 00:23:31,104
I know we'd be in good hands.
526
00:23:31,105 --> 00:23:32,584
Just let me know.
527
00:23:32,585 --> 00:23:34,151
I will. All right. Talk soon.
528
00:23:34,238 --> 00:23:35,196
Okay.
529
00:23:37,590 --> 00:23:40,243
This really does smell good.
I'm gonna take this home.
530
00:23:40,244 --> 00:23:42,332
- Oh, you're leavin'?
- Well, yeah.
531
00:23:42,333 --> 00:23:44,509
I mean, there's a lot to do
tomorrow especially now.
532
00:23:44,510 --> 00:23:46,380
Right, but it's, it's late.
With everything goin' on,
533
00:23:46,381 --> 00:23:47,730
you should just crash here.
534
00:23:49,993 --> 00:23:51,734
I'm just throwing it out there.
There's-there's plenty of room.
535
00:23:53,693 --> 00:23:56,304
Uh, Bruce did say
that I could stay any time.
536
00:23:59,176 --> 00:24:02,441
- That does smell good.
- Yeah, and I'm gonna enjoy it.
537
00:24:03,877 --> 00:24:06,095
[soft music]
538
00:24:06,096 --> 00:24:07,967
- [door closes]
- Touché.
539
00:24:07,968 --> 00:24:09,577
[Mimi's voicemail] Please leave
a message after the beep.
540
00:24:09,578 --> 00:24:12,101
- [beeping]
- Hey, Mom.
541
00:24:12,102 --> 00:24:14,801
The Christmas village
is all set up.
542
00:24:14,888 --> 00:24:20,109
I, um... told the house manager,
Mason, about Frederick.
543
00:24:20,110 --> 00:24:21,242
[chuckles]
544
00:24:24,941 --> 00:24:28,944
Oh, man, you would have loved
decorating this house.
545
00:24:28,945 --> 00:24:30,990
[inhales]
546
00:24:30,991 --> 00:24:34,733
[sighs] It's weird
because I...keep thinking
547
00:24:34,734 --> 00:24:36,125
you're gonna walk through
the front door, you know,
548
00:24:36,126 --> 00:24:39,478
with, like...
an extra big wreath or...
549
00:24:41,392 --> 00:24:42,829
[inhales] more ornaments.
550
00:24:45,396 --> 00:24:47,397
[knocking on door]
551
00:24:47,398 --> 00:24:51,227
[sighs] Okay, more later.
552
00:24:51,228 --> 00:24:53,492
[mellow music]
553
00:24:56,712 --> 00:24:58,279
Thought you might
need some towels.
554
00:24:58,366 --> 00:25:00,628
- Oh, thanks for that.
- Yeah.
555
00:25:00,629 --> 00:25:02,108
And the thermostat's
right down the hall
556
00:25:02,109 --> 00:25:03,979
in case it gets too cold.
557
00:25:03,980 --> 00:25:06,199
And the hot water in the shower
sometimes takes a minute.
558
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,157
I'm still workin'
on tryin' to fix it.
559
00:25:08,158 --> 00:25:10,508
[chuckles]
Thanks for the heads up.
560
00:25:10,509 --> 00:25:11,684
Yeah.
561
00:25:16,776 --> 00:25:18,428
Uh, anything else?
562
00:25:18,429 --> 00:25:20,388
[mellow music]
563
00:25:21,781 --> 00:25:23,217
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
564
00:25:35,490 --> 00:25:37,970
[Andie] So I read that
the first Holly Hills Hop
565
00:25:37,971 --> 00:25:40,102
happened in 1952.
566
00:25:40,103 --> 00:25:43,366
So I thought we could
do a vintage vibe.
567
00:25:43,367 --> 00:25:47,328
Uh, toy soldiers, retro signs,
large nutcrackers,
568
00:25:47,415 --> 00:25:49,243
and a big red vintage sleigh.
569
00:25:49,330 --> 00:25:51,157
The Hop is on December 23rd.
570
00:25:51,158 --> 00:25:52,898
That's six days from now.
571
00:25:52,899 --> 00:25:54,464
You sure you could pull
all that together by then?
572
00:25:54,465 --> 00:25:55,901
Oh, I'm more than sure.
573
00:25:55,902 --> 00:25:57,294
I learned from the best.
574
00:25:57,381 --> 00:25:59,992
Well, this sounds
like a no-brainer.
575
00:25:59,993 --> 00:26:02,342
All in favor of Andie taking
over the holiday planning,
576
00:26:02,343 --> 00:26:04,083
[chuckles] raise your hands.
577
00:26:04,084 --> 00:26:06,041
- [all chuckling]
- Well, it's settled then.
578
00:26:06,042 --> 00:26:09,131
Uh, meeting adjourned.
[chuckles]
579
00:26:09,132 --> 00:26:10,959
- Great.
- I know.
580
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,439
- I can't believe it.
- Sit, sit, sit, sit.
581
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,747
Ah, I'm so excited!
582
00:26:14,834 --> 00:26:17,575
So I saw you signing the Parkers
up for six dozen cookies
583
00:26:17,576 --> 00:26:19,446
for the cookie swap
this afternoon.
584
00:26:19,447 --> 00:26:21,404
- Are they back in town?
- I think...
585
00:26:21,405 --> 00:26:23,363
I did that before
they got delayed.
586
00:26:23,364 --> 00:26:24,320
I might be able
to move things around.
587
00:26:24,321 --> 00:26:25,931
Nope. You know what?
588
00:26:25,932 --> 00:26:27,062
I don't want them
to appear flaky,
589
00:26:27,063 --> 00:26:29,325
so I'll take care of it.
[chuckles]
590
00:26:29,326 --> 00:26:32,547
Are you sure? That's a lot
of cookies for one person.
591
00:26:32,634 --> 00:26:34,287
Well, maybe Mason could help.
592
00:26:34,288 --> 00:26:37,160
No, he seems very
anti-all-things-Christmas.
593
00:26:37,247 --> 00:26:39,380
Well, yeah. Can't blame
him after what happened.
594
00:26:39,467 --> 00:26:41,163
What happened?
595
00:26:41,164 --> 00:26:44,689
Well, he had kind of a rough go
of it last Christmas.
596
00:26:44,690 --> 00:26:46,605
Uh, rough might be
an understatement. If--
597
00:26:47,780 --> 00:26:49,085
What?
598
00:26:49,259 --> 00:26:50,999
Well, it's one of those things
599
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,480
that you really
should hear from him.
600
00:26:53,481 --> 00:26:55,395
Yeah, true.
601
00:26:55,396 --> 00:26:57,267
Knowing Mason, he wouldn't
want us talking about it.
602
00:27:00,793 --> 00:27:03,272
Okay. I'm gonna respect that.
603
00:27:03,273 --> 00:27:05,318
Um, I should get baking.
604
00:27:05,319 --> 00:27:06,798
[chuckles]
Yeah. Thanks again.
605
00:27:06,799 --> 00:27:09,149
Good luck.
606
00:27:09,236 --> 00:27:11,846
- Oh, she's so perfect for him.
- I know.
607
00:27:11,847 --> 00:27:13,631
I just wish he would get out
of his own way.
608
00:27:13,632 --> 00:27:15,110
I know.
609
00:27:15,111 --> 00:27:16,330
- [both sigh]
- [oven bell dinging]
610
00:27:16,504 --> 00:27:19,724
[festive music]
611
00:27:19,725 --> 00:27:21,595
You know, I think you might
be going a bit overboard
612
00:27:21,596 --> 00:27:24,946
on this whole getting-the-house
to-smell-like-baked-goods thing.
613
00:27:24,947 --> 00:27:26,427
You do remember
they're not coming back
614
00:27:26,514 --> 00:27:27,819
until Wednesday, right?
615
00:27:27,820 --> 00:27:29,734
Oh, I remember,
but I signed them up
616
00:27:29,735 --> 00:27:32,301
for the cookie swap today, and
I have to make six dozen cookies
617
00:27:32,302 --> 00:27:34,564
in three hours.
618
00:27:34,565 --> 00:27:36,828
So just go to the store
and buy some ready-made.
619
00:27:36,829 --> 00:27:39,353
That would be a crime against
Christmas, and I can handle it.
620
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,571
All of it.
621
00:27:41,572 --> 00:27:43,530
No problem.
622
00:27:43,531 --> 00:27:45,924
- I guess I need an apron.
- Oh...
623
00:27:45,925 --> 00:27:47,229
Thank you.
624
00:27:47,230 --> 00:27:49,972
[music continues]
625
00:27:52,453 --> 00:27:54,149
- [chuckles]
- What?
626
00:27:54,150 --> 00:27:55,108
It's one of the perks
of making cookies.
627
00:27:55,195 --> 00:27:56,630
Mm, it's dangerous.
628
00:27:56,631 --> 00:27:58,023
Why? Because of salmonella?
629
00:27:58,024 --> 00:28:00,982
No, because once you start,
you can't stop.
630
00:28:00,983 --> 00:28:03,028
[chuckles]
Where's the frosting?
631
00:28:03,029 --> 00:28:04,683
Here, I just started mixin' it
right there.
632
00:28:06,249 --> 00:28:07,294
You know, you're not
half bad at this.
633
00:28:07,381 --> 00:28:09,034
You've done this before?
634
00:28:09,035 --> 00:28:10,644
I used to bake Christmas cookies
with my grandma.
635
00:28:10,645 --> 00:28:12,037
- Once upon a time.
- Yes!
636
00:28:12,038 --> 00:28:13,995
There it is, a happy
Christmas memory
637
00:28:13,996 --> 00:28:15,431
underneath all that cynicism.
638
00:28:15,432 --> 00:28:16,519
For sure.
639
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:17,782
Back when I was a kid,
640
00:28:17,783 --> 00:28:19,218
Christmas felt...
641
00:28:19,219 --> 00:28:20,829
Magical?
642
00:28:21,003 --> 00:28:22,613
Something like that.
643
00:28:22,701 --> 00:28:24,224
And now it doesn't?
644
00:28:25,791 --> 00:28:27,052
Precisely.
645
00:28:27,053 --> 00:28:28,881
And that's because...?
646
00:28:34,887 --> 00:28:37,366
How many cups of sugar
in this next batch?
647
00:28:37,367 --> 00:28:39,891
Whoa. Did you sketch these?
648
00:28:39,892 --> 00:28:41,067
Yeah.
649
00:28:43,025 --> 00:28:45,636
They're really good.
650
00:28:45,724 --> 00:28:48,160
Some of these look better
than what you have up.
651
00:28:48,161 --> 00:28:49,683
I think that's a compliment?
652
00:28:49,684 --> 00:28:51,946
It is, I mean, here I thought
653
00:28:51,947 --> 00:28:54,253
you were just some
decorator planner person.
654
00:28:54,254 --> 00:28:55,994
Well, I like all of that stuff.
655
00:28:55,995 --> 00:28:57,778
But that was always more
my mom's forte.
656
00:28:57,779 --> 00:29:01,435
I'm more into creative
and designing.
657
00:29:01,522 --> 00:29:02,870
So why don't you
do more of that?
658
00:29:02,871 --> 00:29:05,656
Okay, I'm gonna
answer your question,
659
00:29:05,744 --> 00:29:07,048
but every time
that I ask you one,
660
00:29:07,049 --> 00:29:08,398
you avoid it like the plague.
661
00:29:10,183 --> 00:29:11,445
I was just admiring your work.
662
00:29:12,054 --> 00:29:14,273
Yeah...
663
00:29:14,274 --> 00:29:17,712
My dream for the Holiday Junkie
is to become a consumer brand,
664
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:20,148
make Holiday products.
665
00:29:20,149 --> 00:29:23,412
So you should go for it.
You're really talented.
666
00:29:23,413 --> 00:29:24,545
What about you?
667
00:29:25,851 --> 00:29:27,199
What's your dream?
668
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,202
[soft music]
669
00:29:30,203 --> 00:29:31,769
[oven dings]
670
00:29:31,770 --> 00:29:33,118
Not burning
this batch of cookies.
671
00:29:33,119 --> 00:29:35,294
Mmm.
672
00:29:35,295 --> 00:29:36,731
- Oh, yeah. Okay.
- Oven mitt.
673
00:29:36,818 --> 00:29:39,124
Yep. That's, yeah, okay.
674
00:29:39,125 --> 00:29:42,084
[upbeat music]
675
00:29:44,217 --> 00:29:46,087
I mean, I think that
the vanilla caramel ones
676
00:29:46,088 --> 00:29:47,654
are clearly the best.
677
00:29:47,655 --> 00:29:49,438
Oh, I don't know. Have you
had this snickerdoodle?
678
00:29:49,439 --> 00:29:51,310
- Which one is that? Oh.
- This one.
679
00:29:51,311 --> 00:29:53,792
[chuckles]
680
00:29:53,966 --> 00:29:57,273
Oh, my. Oh, yeah, you might be
right. That just took the lead.
681
00:29:58,709 --> 00:30:00,145
The snow is a nice touch.
682
00:30:00,146 --> 00:30:01,842
[Andie] Well, you know,
I called my snow guy
683
00:30:01,843 --> 00:30:03,801
'cause I wanted to
spread some magic.
684
00:30:03,802 --> 00:30:05,280
Of course you have a snow guy.
685
00:30:05,281 --> 00:30:07,065
[chuckles]
Stop...
686
00:30:07,066 --> 00:30:08,631
I can't believe I've never
been to this before.
687
00:30:08,632 --> 00:30:10,938
It's really
a wonderful concept.
688
00:30:10,939 --> 00:30:12,766
I give you cookies,
you give me cookies.
689
00:30:12,767 --> 00:30:14,899
I'm sorry. Did you just
like a Christmas activity?
690
00:30:14,900 --> 00:30:16,726
Guys, did you hear that?
He loves the Christmas.
691
00:30:16,727 --> 00:30:19,425
Okay, let's not get ahead
of ourselves. It's sugar.
692
00:30:19,426 --> 00:30:21,731
Sugar's pure dopamine.
693
00:30:21,732 --> 00:30:23,516
Could be any time of the year,
and I would enjoy it.
694
00:30:23,517 --> 00:30:25,258
Well, I'm having a great time.
695
00:30:25,345 --> 00:30:27,303
[both chuckle]
696
00:30:27,390 --> 00:30:30,176
[indistinct song]
697
00:30:32,439 --> 00:30:34,440
I used to wanna run
my own construction business.
698
00:30:34,441 --> 00:30:36,921
Wait, what?
Where did that come from?
699
00:30:36,922 --> 00:30:39,271
- [laughs]
- My dream.
700
00:30:39,272 --> 00:30:41,316
You asked me earlier
and I never answered you.
701
00:30:41,317 --> 00:30:43,450
Oh, so why used to?
702
00:30:45,626 --> 00:30:47,454
Just kinda lost the motivation.
703
00:30:47,541 --> 00:30:49,021
Mmm. That can happen.
704
00:30:50,849 --> 00:30:52,024
I feel like it's creeping back.
705
00:30:53,460 --> 00:30:56,592
[kids laughing]
706
00:30:56,593 --> 00:31:00,206
Ah, nothing better than
being a kid at Christmas.
707
00:31:05,124 --> 00:31:08,474
And that was my other dream.
Always wanted to have kids.
708
00:31:08,475 --> 00:31:10,519
Big family.
709
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,043
Oh, you know, if you have kids,
710
00:31:12,044 --> 00:31:14,045
you're gonna need to be
all in on Christmas.
711
00:31:14,046 --> 00:31:15,742
Oh, for them I would.
712
00:31:15,743 --> 00:31:17,875
I'd even put on one of those
Santa outfits.
713
00:31:17,876 --> 00:31:20,487
I cannot picture you
in a Santa suit.
714
00:31:20,661 --> 00:31:22,749
Why? Can't Santa be fit?
715
00:31:22,750 --> 00:31:24,752
[laughing]
716
00:31:26,188 --> 00:31:28,321
[sighs]
That is what it's all about.
717
00:31:29,626 --> 00:31:31,933
Christmas spirit.
718
00:31:32,020 --> 00:31:34,456
[Mason] Got to hand it to you,
the kids are loving that snow.
719
00:31:34,457 --> 00:31:37,546
[kids laughing]
720
00:31:37,547 --> 00:31:38,766
[Andie] God, I love it here.
721
00:31:40,899 --> 00:31:42,725
My mom would have
loved it here too.
722
00:31:42,726 --> 00:31:45,815
[song continues]
723
00:31:45,816 --> 00:31:47,035
What are you doing later?
724
00:31:49,559 --> 00:31:51,387
I know a place that
has real Christmas spirits.
725
00:31:53,476 --> 00:31:54,782
Okay.
726
00:32:00,222 --> 00:32:03,137
[festive music]
727
00:32:03,138 --> 00:32:05,793
[indistinct chatter]
728
00:32:07,403 --> 00:32:10,537
Hey, there they are.
Mr. I'm-always-busy.
729
00:32:10,624 --> 00:32:12,364
[laughs]
Sit, please.
730
00:32:12,365 --> 00:32:13,932
- Next round's on me.
- Yes.
731
00:32:16,064 --> 00:32:18,761
So, uh, you know, there's
a little chubby version of me,
732
00:32:18,762 --> 00:32:20,633
right, in, uh, feeding pajamas,
733
00:32:20,634 --> 00:32:22,809
running downstairs
Christmas morning
734
00:32:22,810 --> 00:32:24,854
and, and I still, I see
this in slow motion
735
00:32:24,855 --> 00:32:27,293
'cause it was
so hard to deal with.
736
00:32:27,380 --> 00:32:31,557
I look... nothing. Nothing.
737
00:32:31,558 --> 00:32:36,475
Trees barren, uh, no gifts.
Stockings are empty, zilch.
738
00:32:36,476 --> 00:32:39,521
And I'm like,
"Mom, Santa forgot us."
739
00:32:39,522 --> 00:32:43,744
And she goes,
"No, Darren, look, TV's gone.
740
00:32:44,963 --> 00:32:46,573
Stereo's gone."
741
00:32:46,660 --> 00:32:49,314
She goes, "Forget Santa,
we've got robbed."
742
00:32:49,315 --> 00:32:51,970
This is awful. Did they ever
catch the person that did it?
743
00:32:52,057 --> 00:32:54,015
No. Never found
anybody who did it.
744
00:32:54,102 --> 00:32:56,147
And I was crushed.
It was the worst.
745
00:32:56,148 --> 00:32:58,105
Babe, you know,
I easily have that beat.
746
00:32:58,106 --> 00:33:00,499
[Darren] Yes, that's true.
Oh, gee.
747
00:33:00,500 --> 00:33:03,329
The first Christmas after
I got my driver's license.
748
00:33:03,416 --> 00:33:05,157
- [Darren laughs]
- Oh, boy.
749
00:33:05,244 --> 00:33:11,640
I'm backing out of the garage
and I feel... a bump.
750
00:33:11,641 --> 00:33:13,339
- [Darren groans]
- Ugh.
751
00:33:13,426 --> 00:33:15,644
- What? Tell 'em. Just say it
- I can't.
752
00:33:15,645 --> 00:33:17,559
[Darren] You can't. Okay. Okay.
753
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,432
Um, my beautiful wife
and a certain reindeer
754
00:33:20,433 --> 00:33:22,477
have something in common.
755
00:33:22,478 --> 00:33:24,958
Uh, Wendy ran over
her grandmother.
756
00:33:24,959 --> 00:33:28,135
Yeah, I know it sounds terrible,
but it was a light tap,
757
00:33:28,136 --> 00:33:30,442
and she suffered
some minor bruising,
758
00:33:30,443 --> 00:33:34,316
and she fully healed after
a year of physical therapy.
759
00:33:34,403 --> 00:33:36,971
So bad. So bad.
760
00:33:37,058 --> 00:33:39,494
Okay, uh, there's
one mozzarella stick left.
761
00:33:39,495 --> 00:33:41,061
Let's do this.
762
00:33:41,062 --> 00:33:44,064
Whoever, um, has
the worst Christmas story
763
00:33:44,065 --> 00:33:46,198
- gets the mozzarella stick.
- Oh, come on.
764
00:33:46,372 --> 00:33:47,720
You guys really wanna
play that game with me?
765
00:33:47,721 --> 00:33:49,722
Yes.
766
00:33:49,723 --> 00:33:52,594
But yeah, I mean,
I-I don't know your story.
767
00:33:52,595 --> 00:33:55,554
Oh, forget it. These... these
two don't wanna hear it again.
768
00:33:55,555 --> 00:33:57,556
No. But we're
playing a game so...
769
00:33:57,557 --> 00:34:00,211
How about you? What do you got?
You in the running?
770
00:34:00,212 --> 00:34:02,344
I mean, I think I would
win in a landslide,
771
00:34:02,431 --> 00:34:03,518
but I don't know yours.
772
00:34:03,519 --> 00:34:05,391
Oh, yeah? Okay.
773
00:34:07,393 --> 00:34:09,047
- [Mason] Yeah. Let's hear it.
- Okay. Um...
774
00:34:11,179 --> 00:34:14,661
Well, last November, my mom
was diagnosed with cancer.
775
00:34:16,271 --> 00:34:18,316
Um, she didn't
wanna do treatment
776
00:34:18,317 --> 00:34:19,796
because it was Christmas time,
777
00:34:19,883 --> 00:34:21,580
and that was
her favorite time of year
778
00:34:21,581 --> 00:34:23,321
and we had a lot
of jobs lined up.
779
00:34:23,322 --> 00:34:25,975
[somber music]
780
00:34:25,976 --> 00:34:29,109
We didn't always see eye to eye
on the future of the company.
781
00:34:29,110 --> 00:34:32,373
Uh, so when I got
the chance to go to Philly
782
00:34:32,374 --> 00:34:36,073
and interview for
this product design position,
783
00:34:36,074 --> 00:34:38,728
it caused an argument.
784
00:34:38,815 --> 00:34:43,646
I went to Philly just a few days
before Christmas, and...
785
00:34:43,733 --> 00:34:46,039
as I was going
into the interview,
786
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,608
Riley called and said that
my mom had collapsed.
787
00:34:51,915 --> 00:34:54,266
By the time I got back,
she had passed.
788
00:34:57,573 --> 00:34:59,097
I never got to say goodbye.
789
00:35:03,057 --> 00:35:06,974
My best friend was gone and I...
I never got to say goodbye.
790
00:35:09,498 --> 00:35:12,805
- Andie, I'm so sorry.
- Oh, that must've been so hard.
791
00:35:12,806 --> 00:35:15,373
Yes. Here, take
the mozzarella stick.
792
00:35:15,374 --> 00:35:17,592
[Darren] Yes, winner
of the cheese right there.
793
00:35:17,593 --> 00:35:19,768
No, I-I don't...
794
00:35:19,769 --> 00:35:20,814
I still don't know your story.
795
00:35:20,988 --> 00:35:23,468
No, trust me. Trust me, you win.
796
00:35:23,469 --> 00:35:25,296
Please...
797
00:35:25,297 --> 00:35:28,430
I wanna know. Please.
798
00:35:28,517 --> 00:35:31,303
[music continues]
799
00:35:35,263 --> 00:35:41,225
Uh, last year I was engaged
to the love of my life.
800
00:35:41,226 --> 00:35:43,009
Or rather who I thought
was the love of my life.
801
00:35:43,010 --> 00:35:45,229
[scoffs]
802
00:35:45,230 --> 00:35:49,234
And, uh... I saw our future
together clear as day.
803
00:35:50,844 --> 00:35:53,541
She was, she was an art curator.
804
00:35:53,542 --> 00:35:55,022
She was gonna open
a gallery in town.
805
00:35:55,153 --> 00:35:56,675
I'd keep building houses
806
00:35:56,676 --> 00:35:58,198
working for her dad's
construction company
807
00:35:58,199 --> 00:36:00,027
and we were gonna live
happily ever after.
808
00:36:02,290 --> 00:36:05,074
Uh, she wanted
a Christmas time wedding...
809
00:36:05,075 --> 00:36:06,164
uh, and I loved the idea.
810
00:36:08,427 --> 00:36:10,168
But a few days before...
811
00:36:11,952 --> 00:36:14,171
she blindsided me
and just called it off.
812
00:36:14,172 --> 00:36:16,696
[somber music]
813
00:36:18,001 --> 00:36:19,525
She said she wanted to...
814
00:36:21,048 --> 00:36:22,918
live abroad
and travel the world,
815
00:36:22,919 --> 00:36:25,270
and she knew that
I wanted to stay here.
816
00:36:27,707 --> 00:36:31,276
Um, we weren't in love,
we were in comfort.
817
00:36:31,363 --> 00:36:32,364
[Darren] Mm.
818
00:36:34,061 --> 00:36:35,367
[Mason] That's how
she phrased it.
819
00:36:38,152 --> 00:36:40,720
And that was it. That was it.
820
00:36:42,809 --> 00:36:45,159
Just like that,
everything that I knew
821
00:36:45,246 --> 00:36:47,640
and everything I thought
my life was gonna be
822
00:36:47,727 --> 00:36:49,293
was... was gone.
823
00:36:49,294 --> 00:36:52,079
[music continues]
824
00:36:55,387 --> 00:36:57,214
No wonder you hate Christmas.
825
00:36:57,215 --> 00:37:00,435
Okay, as sad as Mason's
story is, and believe me,
826
00:37:00,522 --> 00:37:03,481
we were there, I think
Andie's the clear winner.
827
00:37:03,482 --> 00:37:05,004
I-I agree.
828
00:37:05,005 --> 00:37:07,963
Dead mom trump's fiancé with
cold feet.
829
00:37:07,964 --> 00:37:09,704
That's, the mozzarella stick
is yours.
830
00:37:09,705 --> 00:37:11,577
You know what?
831
00:37:11,664 --> 00:37:12,707
They're both broken hearts,
832
00:37:12,708 --> 00:37:14,580
just different kinds.
833
00:37:18,105 --> 00:37:21,673
- To horrible Christmases...
- Mmm.
834
00:37:21,674 --> 00:37:26,026
Okay? May they remind us to
really enjoy the good ones.
835
00:37:26,113 --> 00:37:27,767
- Hear, hear.
- Cheers. Cheers.
836
00:37:29,247 --> 00:37:30,422
- [glass clinks]
- Cheers.
837
00:37:35,427 --> 00:37:37,777
On the house.
838
00:37:37,864 --> 00:37:40,214
- My special recipe.
- Oh, thank you.
839
00:37:40,301 --> 00:37:41,433
This looks great.
840
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,217
And thank you for helping
841
00:37:43,304 --> 00:37:45,000
with the new order for the Hop.
842
00:37:45,001 --> 00:37:46,959
Hey, as long as you're
the Holiday Junkie...
843
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,049
- I will be your dealer.
- Aw!
844
00:37:49,136 --> 00:37:50,833
You seem in a good mood.
845
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:52,834
Yeah, the Parkers
are coming home,
846
00:37:52,835 --> 00:37:55,185
I have all these new ideas
I'm excited about.
847
00:37:55,316 --> 00:37:57,839
Letting your creative flag fly.
848
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,754
And maybe with some
of these new ideas,
849
00:37:59,755 --> 00:38:02,496
you can finally get the Holiday
Junkie up on the socials.
850
00:38:02,497 --> 00:38:04,586
I will figure out
the new direction
851
00:38:04,673 --> 00:38:06,632
and then look into it.
852
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,373
I'm just saying, after I started
one for Prop and Lock,
853
00:38:09,374 --> 00:38:11,027
we tripled our sales.
854
00:38:11,114 --> 00:38:12,854
Wasn't it that I was
gonna get on social media
855
00:38:12,855 --> 00:38:16,031
and you were gonna get on some
dating apps? How's that going?
856
00:38:16,032 --> 00:38:17,946
- Touché.
- Mm-hmm.
857
00:38:17,947 --> 00:38:22,037
Speaking of dating,
how's Mason?
858
00:38:22,038 --> 00:38:25,302
Um, I did go out with he
and his friends last night.
859
00:38:25,303 --> 00:38:27,653
[indistinct song over stereo]
860
00:38:30,003 --> 00:38:32,787
- What is that?
- That is you burying the lead.
861
00:38:32,788 --> 00:38:34,224
[chuckles]
862
00:38:34,312 --> 00:38:36,443
No wonder you're
in such a good mood.
863
00:38:36,444 --> 00:38:38,576
I can't even remember
the last time you went out.
864
00:38:38,577 --> 00:38:40,708

1209
00:55:29,021 --> 00:55:31,065
Well, when I was seven, I was
really into building
1210
00:55:31,066 --> 00:55:33,851
these model car kits,
and more than anything,
1211
00:55:33,852 --> 00:55:38,596
I wanted the 1978
Falcon Mach II sports car.
1212
00:55:38,683 --> 00:55:41,249
But it was super expensive
and really hard to find.
1213
00:55:41,250 --> 00:55:45,166
And so I did what
any kid would do.
1214
00:55:45,167 --> 00:55:47,343
- You saved your allowance?
- Nope.
1215
00:55:47,344 --> 00:55:50,782
I asked Santa and
he came through.
1216
00:55:50,869 --> 00:55:53,218
And I just remember spending
that entire Christmas break
1217
00:55:53,219 --> 00:55:56,657
building that thing with
my dad, and it was the best.
1218
00:55:57,615 --> 00:56:00,139
You still have it?
1219
00:56:00,226 --> 00:56:03,924
Sadly, no. We, uh, we moved
a few times and it got lost.

[soft music]

a part of a great memory.

1223
00:56:13,195 --> 00:56:14,806

He'll give you a hand.

00:56:43,008 --> 00:56:46,576
You know, that space is so big,
when he gets it all cleared out,
1229
00:56:46,577 --> 00:56:48,708
there'll be plenty of room in
case anybody wants to dance.
1230

Whoa, in case they wanna
dance? They better dance.

It's in the name.
And I made a Do-Wop playlist.

to be a consumer brand,

that make magic for people.

I get this tinge of guilt

changing the company
1249

Well, that's understandable.

But trust me when I say
that at the end of the day,
1252
00:57:46,027 --> 00:57:49,117
no matter what, moms just
want their kids to be happy.

- A son.

that maybe if Jerry and I

hadn't pushed him so hard
to take over the cafe
1259

Yes, I know.
I just got a few more things
1382
01:04:38,744 --> 01:04:40,353
I need to take care of
and then we can go.
1383
01:04:40,354 --> 01:04:41,486
Right.

No, uh, no.
No interruption at all.

- Riley. Darren.
- Yeah. Hi.
1393
01:05:03,377 --> 01:05:05,901
I-I wanted her to come and pick
up the Cupid Christmas trees
1394
01:05:05,902 --> 01:05:08,121
for the prop house in case
I ever get the chance
1395
01:05:08,208 --> 01:05:10,775
to use them again
someplace else.
1396
01:05:10,776 --> 01:05:13,387
Yeah, of course.
I-I can help you load them up.
1397

You know, it's a real shame
what happened to the cafe.

Andie, girl, look at this place.

- Yeah.
- No offense, Mason.
1411
01:05:44,027 --> 01:05:45,724
No, but it's a great space.
1412
01:05:45,811 --> 01:05:47,377
All we have to do is
clean it up a little
1413
01:05:47,378 --> 01:05:49,032
and, you know, add some magic.
1414

a hole back there.

But there-there's definitely
something living in the corner.
1418
01:05:59,216 --> 01:06:00,738
Okay, okay.
1419
01:06:00,739 --> 01:06:03,568
So we can cover the hole
with big velvet drapes,
1420
01:06:03,655 --> 01:06:06,657

And-and I promise
if we can just get going,

that the Hop is on.

where they're coming.

to this party barefoot.

gonna pull this off.

home and put his kids to bed?

Ah, seeing as how his kids
are 14 and 17,

just done

I would get on social media

she was married to a man.

gonna leave him.

But then she changed her mind,
went back into the closet...

of my being.

I think it's like you said.

So I have big news.
1749
01:22:54,665 --> 01:22:58,625
The Holiday Junkie is
becoming a consumer brand.

But don't worry. I will
always honor what you created.

What is all this?
1761
01:23:44,062 --> 01:23:46,672
I talked to Bruce
and he told me how together
1762
01:23:46,673 --> 01:23:48,631
you're gonna launch
Holiday Junkie 2.0.
1763
01:23:48,632 --> 01:23:51,895
And I thought there'd be nowhere
better for you to create,

products than right here.

Look at that sign.

01:23:58,946 --> 01:24:00,861
You could put
a fresh pine right there

the kind that doesn't shed.
1768
01:24:02,907 --> 01:24:05,561
And this table, you can put
your amazing greeting cards

and ornaments
that you've designed.
1770
01:24:08,173 --> 01:24:10,915
Over here, you could even sell
some baked goods.

01:24:11,046 --> 01:24:14,396
Or just offer a spray that
accomplishes the same smell.

- You're giving me the store?

Because as soon as you left,
1781

I realized that I completely
and totally love Christmas.

I love how it brought
new energy into my life.

that I didn't...

to start building again.

Because Christmas is magic
and I just love it, and...

You realize that by Christmas,
I mean you, right?

Yeah, it wasn't super subtle.
