Maggie: It is an exciting
night tonight

here at the 2018 American
Sports Awards.

From the basketball court
to the ice rink,

from the ski slopes
to the gridiron.

All of your favorite athletes

are walking the red carpet
with us tonight.

And here we have champion
downhill skier, Justin O'Neill,

fresh off his 2nd place showing
on the hit show,

"Celebrity Fox Trot."

- Justin.
- Hi Maggie.

- How are you doing?
- I'm great.

Justin, your first nomination

for Favorite Male Athlete,
since your big win in Japan.

Yeah. Well, I know it's
a bit of a cliché, Maggie,

but it really is an honor
just to be nominated.

Maggie: Be honest, you wouldn't
mind having that award

on your bookshelf with all
the other medals and trophies.

Winning isn't everything,
Maggie.

Except on the mountain.

- Good luck tonight, Justin.
- Thank you, Maggie.

Anna.

Give me some good news.

Anna: I wish I could, Justin.

Niels is out.

Can't believe Neils quit.

We'll find you a new coach.

I don't want a new coach,
I want my old coach.

Did you tell him I'm done
with physical therapy?

I'm cleared to start
training again?

He doesn't think that he can
get you back into shape

in time for the Winter Classic,
but do not be discouraged.

I can't start racing without
a coach. I've been out a year.

I have irons in the fire.

Irons in the fire.

But why aren't you packed?
We're leaving in the morning.

You know, maybe I should
wait. Find a new coach,

train for a few months
and then I'll be ready.

You grew up on
Winter Mountain, Justin.

It's the perfect place
for your comeback.

People back home...

they expect a lot from me.

And you'll deliver when you
take first in the Classic.

Plus, all those endorsement deals

are gonna come rushing back.
Trust me,

this is not my first rodeo.

Now, eat, finish packing,

while I go work the phones.

Create some buzz.

I'm picking you up at 9:00.

Back to Winter Mountain.

Anna: And it's gonna be great.

The hometown hero
has arrived.

I can see the headline already.

You ready to take
your first run?

Yeah. Yeah.

But I need to go say hi
to my parents first.

See you in a bit.
- Alright.

...were a great idea.

We can get one more display
over by the fireplace.

So is this where
you go to lodge a complaint

about the lodge?
- Oh.

Ohhhh...

Well, look who's finally home.

Hi Mom. Dad.

Good to see you, Justin.
How's the knee?

- Fully recovered.
- Range of motion?

- 100%.
- You run a black diamond yet?

- Today.
- You look good.

We haven't seen you
since Austria.

We don't talk about Austria, Mom.

In my mind, Austria doesn't
even exist anymore.

I've completely blocked it out.

Hey. Everyone takes a spill.

You should've seen your father
after the Swiss Downhill in '84

I know. I know.

And I still took first
in that championship.

You just get back on the horse,
like I did, all will be well.

- That's my plan.
- Good.

How about some cocoa?

Your dad bought this fancy
new machine

for the lobby's happy hour.
- Absolutely.

Extra marshmallows.

Plying me with my favorite
things?

Oh, I'll bake you
a key lime pie, too,

if it'll get you home
more often.

It could work.

There you are.

I got you a 2:00 p.m.
radio interview.

Oh, great.
You remember Anna, my manager?

- Of course. Sit down.
- Hi.

- I'll get you some cocoa.
- Oh thanks, but I'm off sugar.

So what's the status
of the new coach?

That's the important
thing here, huh?

A coach before interviews.
I can make a few calls--

Now, we have a few irons
in the fire, right?

- That's right, lots of irons.
- So who are you thinking of?

How's the auction coming
along, Mom?

She runs a fundraiser
during the Carnival.

I'm looking forward to it.

In fact, Kayla has helped us
get some great auction items.

Have you... seen her yet?

Uh... no. Not yet.

You should drop by the ski
school and say hi.

I will. At some point.

Old... family friend.

Kayla Green.
Best ski instructor we've got

if you're interested in some
lessons while you're here.

- Oh, Martin Green's daughter.
- Yeah. Yeah.

He was my coach.

Justin mentioned that.

You've got quite
the legacy here.

Skiing is in our blood.

Speaking of,

I am gonna go get that run in,
before the interview.

- Whoa!
- Look out!

Little rug-rat.

Hey, I'm so sorry about them.
Are you okay?

Justin.

Hi, Kay.

Why do you look like
you've just seen a ghost?

Well, I wasn't expecting
to see you yet.

The Winter Classic isn't
for another week.

Are you a ghost?

Not that I know of.

Why do you ask?

Well, you just kind of
disappeared like Poof!

You know?
- Oh. Right.

Yep. All me.
Flesh and blood.

So where is-where's Niels?

Oh...

I'm-I'm not training
with Niels right now.

Oh.

So, how-how you been Kay?

I mean, evidently
not as good as you.

You know, magazine covers, profiles,

the Arctic Skin Thermals
commercial last year.

That was something.
But can you tell me the uh...

yeah, the arm flex?
Was that your idea or...?

That wasn't mine...

completely.

Lot of comments on social
media about it.

Are you cyber-stalking me?

Huh. I'm flattered.

I just hope it's still
about the skiing for you

and not the notoriety.

It's always about the skiing, Kay.

Well, you better get back
to skiing,

because you just got smoked
by a bunch of 12 year-olds.

- Bye.
- Yeah. See ya.

Huh... that went well.

Okay, on Thursday we're gonna
hit an intermediate,

so I want you to get lots
of sleep, okay?

Okay. Good job today.

What took you so long?

You didn't fall again,
did you?

No. I just ah,

ran into an old friend.

So that's the infamous
Kayla Green.

I mean, I don't know
about infamous.

I mean, legendary, maybe,
but I don't wanna overshoot it.

Kayla, this is my manager, Anna.

Hey. Nice to meet you.

You've done a good job
with him.

Thank you.

I mean, not many skiers
become a household name.

- It's true.
- Yeah. Sure they do.

And now, you're on track to
be the youngest winner ever.

Not ever.

Because of that guy.

Yeah. He still holds
the record.

Winning the Classic
at only 19 years-old.

I'm already 20.

Here. One sec, eh?

Justin O'Neill.

Dude, I'm not worthy.

I... I'm sorry, Hunter Davies.

Big fan.

I've... I've seen you ski.

Looks like you're gonna
give us all a run

for our money up there.

I just can't believe I'm
gonna be racing against you.

I used to have this guy's
poster on my wall as a kid!

You were the best there is.

I remember, when I first saw
you on TV,

Years, and years,
and god, years ago...

and my dad let me stay up
until 2:00 a.m.

just to watch you ski,
live, in Japan.

That was...
that was a great race.

It was good meeting you.

I guess, I'll see you up
on the hill.

Yeah. Cool.

Hey, I'd buy you a beer,
But I'm not old enough.

So anyways,
catch you later, man.

Catch you later.

I'll get to you this week,
too, Justin. Big comeback?

We're all excited to see
how it goes.

Absolutely.
Any time.

You've got Anna's number.

You know that that's
just noise, right?

Remember what my dad used
to say about the press,

"Let them say what
they're gonna say...

and keep on skiing."

I forgot all about that.

Here is your schedule
for tomorrow.

You've got the Ainsley twins again.

I'm sorry. I'm just--
I'm gonna buy you lunch.

- Ooh, you are a slippery one.
- I'm slippery?

When were you gonna tell me
about your little run-in

with Justin O'Neill?

How do you know about that?

I can see it
all over your face.

Gossip travels at the speed
of light around here.

- Yeah.
- And it wasn't a run-in,

it was an encounter
and it was fine.

Oh no, okay, hold on.

Why are you not furious
with him?

I'm still mad at Jason Gregory

for ditching me
at the 5th grade dance

and what Justin did
was way worse.

He didn't do anything.
Except for maybe radio silence

for the past few years.
- Oh, come on.

You were going out on
the circuit together,

like Dad and Tom.

He had the chance to be
coached by Niels Rediger.

I wasn't about to hold him
back from that.

And I-I what... I didn't have
a professional track record.

Dad taught us everything
we know.

That's your track record.

And he loved watching
you coach Justin,

seeing you follow
in his footsteps.

Yeah, and if he were here
with me right now,

he would love watching me
run the school with you

and carrying on his
and Mom's legacy.

in that way I'm happy.
Justin's happy.

We're... we're just happy people.

Four years since
I had Nora's pot roast

and it's exactly the same.

That's why you get it.

You know, I do follow
a strict training diet.

Most of the time.

- Ah-ha. I didn't say a word.
- Mm-hmm.

Justin O'Neill,
can I get a selfie?

Yeah. It'll cost you.

- Good to see you, man...
- You too.

not on my TV.
We miss you out here, J.

Well, you've got me
for the next week.

Hey, how is your knee doing?

Did they do deep tissue
regeneration? Ultrasound?

Yeah. All of the above,
Dr. Murphy.

Ah... not Dr. Murphy just yet.

Not for another five months.
Not a moment too soon.

Working for these two, by day,
and studying hard at night.

Hey, got time for a drink?

- Ah...
- Go ahead.

We'll see you later.
- Not too late, okay?

I'm gonna close off the back
run until 7:00 a.m.,

so you can have it
for yourself.

- I'll be there at 6.
- Okay. Good.

- Alright. Good night, guys.
- Good night.

About that beer...

I'm in training,
let's make it a coffee.

Yeah. I've always wanted
to be Irish.

Come on, big guy.
- Yeah.

So what's going on, man?

You haven't been home
in like five years?

Four. It's a busy life,
traveling around

all the time,
from race to race--

Come on, J. It's me, man.
you haven't raced in a year.

- Agh...
- Why didn't you come home

to the PT Institute to rehab?

Best sports medicine clinic
in the world

is on the Upper East Side.

My surgeon is right
around the corner.

You don't pass that kind
of thing up.

That's how was back in racing
shape in record time.

I'm gonna be way better
than those guys, okay?

And I'm gonna give you a stack
of business cards

for your racing buddies
for when they wipe out.

Great ambulance
chaser of Winter Mountain

to the rescue!

Don't you cheapen me
like that... come on.

- That's what's he's at.
- Two or three.

Justin: Are you still carrying
a torch for Kayla's sister?

You ever gonna do anything
about it?

When the time is right.

Oh, when the time is right.
Mm-hmm.

Yeah. You still carrying
a torch for her?

Oh, come on,
what are you talking about?

We were best friends.
It was never like that

between Kay and I.
- Ah-ha.

Sure, Bud. Yep.
- Mm-hmm. Ah-ha.

- Ah-ha.
- Right.

He's favoring the left knee.

Is he still having pain
in the right?

- Not for a few months.
- No, he's playing it safe.

His knee is healed,
it's time to use it.

Ah.

That knee is healed,
it's time to use it.

You're not finishing
your turns.

Your weight is too far back.
This is so not my place.

I-I cannot turn this off.
I'm gonna leave you to it.

No. Don't turn it off.

Because I think we just
found Justin's new coach.

- Excuse me?!
- Kayla?

For the week.
To see how it goes.

No I'm like so swamped this
week. I've got like the ski
school--

And she's not even a coach, coach.

'Scuse me, I did coach you
to your first

Winter Classic victory. FYI.
Anna: Yes!

Think of the optics, Justin.

Plus, her father led your father

to victory after victory.

And history has a tendency
to repeat itself.

Is that always such a good
thing, Anna? And...

what happened to the irons
in the fire?

The fire's out. Squelched.

Justin needs someone
who tells it like it is,

no sugar coating.
No playing to his ego.

All of that can be a big
distraction for him.

Justin, I can hear you,
you know.

Let me finish.

Who better than his
best friend from childhood?

Someone who knew him when.

Who isn't gonna be distracted
by the glitz and glamour

that comes with Justin O'Neill.
- Again... hearing everything.

It all comes from
a place of love.

You know, I... I just this
there has to be other option.

Like what about his dad?

No-no-no!
Not an option.

Or my sister, Jenny.

She works at the ski school
with me and she's amazing.

Has Jenny ever coached
downhill?

I think that you're making
my case for me.

He needs this.
He needs you.

Do it for old time's sake.

Over here.
Is he gonna listen to me?

- Are you gonna listen to her?
- I don't know.

I-I don't know even know her
coaching technique anymore.

Okay, goodbye.

Bye bye.
Anna: Justin!

Come on.

Fine.

I'll do whatever you say.

Within reason.

Oh, I don't teach anything
that's without reason.

It's settled then.
We start tomorrow.

Yay.

You guys are amazing.
Okay, good job.

But remember, if you feel
the slightest little skid,

I want you to keep
your hips up,

But whatever you do,
you don't get stuck

in the "zombie position," okay?

I've got my eyes on you.

Alright. Get back up.

Good morning.
- Hey.

I thought we were training
at 9:00.

We are.

So you gonna have someone
take over your class for you?

No.

So what are we doing here?

You're gonna up that magic
carpet with my kids.

- The bunny hill.
- Mm-hmm.

You gotta learn to crawl
before you can walk.

Is this within reason?

Because I-I don't see how
skiing with a bunch of kids

on a bunny hill is gonna help
me win the Classic.

Well, maybe you could give me
the benefit of the doubt.

It's just a thought.

Kayla: When I was your age,
my favorite thing

was skiing on fresh,
fallen powder.

There's no feeling like it.
You remember that, Justin?

- This is hardly powder.
- Work with me.

Dude! So cool!

Yeah.
Just a little lesson here.

Gotta give back to the kids,
you know?

Heh. Stay humble.

Namaste.

Alright,

nobody tells the truth,

and there is ice-cream in it
for you.

All: Yay!

Alright, I want you to
show me those pizza slices

and snow plow...
3, 2, 1!

GO! Plow!

Okay. Bend your knees.
Keep your weight forward.

Beautiful!
You're doing so great.

Come on, those pizza slices.

I believe in you!

- You alright?
- Yeah.

Can't ski well.
- That's okay.

Anna: She's new on the scene,

but as good as her father.
Maybe better.

Of course he's wearing
the Mountain Ridge Boots.

Oh, he doesn't care if the
commercials aren't running anymore,

they are always on his feet.

Yeah, it'll be televised.

The 29th.

Okay, thanks Ruth.

We are this close to getting
Mountain Ridge Boots

back on board.
How was your time today?

- We didn't run the course.
- Why not?

Because my "coach" wouldn't
let me off the bunny hill.

- Are-are you serious?
- Mm-hmm.

We have 7 days.

Yeah. This was your
brilliant idea, Anna.

I am sure she has a plan.

Jenny: Okay. Okay. Please tell
me you took photographs.

No, I didn't want
to humiliate the man.

But it was really funny
seeing him standing there

with a bunch of little kids.
- What are you doing?

Are you trying to mess
with his head?

What? I wouldn't do that.
I just want him to stop

trying to be Justin O'Neill,
the superstar,

and just be... just be
Justin O'Neill, the skier.

Well, if anyone can bring him
back, it's you.

I don't know.
He's a bit more challenging

than he used to be.
- Hmm.

What's going on? What...
Why are you dressed like that?

There's a locker room, inside.

You can get changed in there.

What are we doing?
It's day two

and I have yet to be
on the training course.

You know, once upon a time
you used to trust me.

You could try that now.
- Do you have a plan here?

What do you think?

I think answering questions
with questions

is a standard deflection technique.

Yeah. It certainly can be.

I wanna know the plan.
We're partners, here.

The plan is...

you need to comeback down to
earth and get centered again.

Ah, you are very cryptic.

I don't like that.
- Oh, well, just know this...

there is a method
to my madness.

I'm--

Still... no idea
what your plan is.

I understand none of this.
And it's really hot in here.

It's Bikram.
It's sweaty yoga.

Yeah. That seems pretty unsanitary.

No, it's great.
You get a deeper stretch,

it improves your circulation.

Plus, your skin glows.
- And that helps me how?

Switch legs. Put all your
weight on the bad knee.

Can we just ask her
to open a window?

Just a tiny sliver.
- Shhh. Shhh.

Fine.

Put your weight
on the bad knee.

Let's keep it down, please.

Keep our zen intact
for our neighbors.

Balance. Right.

Hey. Don't help me.

I will conquer this, alright?

I will conquer this.

I will... conquer this.

I did not conquer that.

I don't think my body
bends that way.

Sweaty yoga is unnecessary torture.

Well, you get used to it
after, you know, a while.

- Am I going to need to?
- We'll see.

Oh, look at that,

they've still got all
my favorite midway games.

You know, that's the last time
I was here.

The Classic. Four years ago.
- Yep.

Still couldn't win
that ring toss.

You know, I think it's fixed.
- That's not fixed.

- Oh please.
- I speak from experience.

And maybe I'll win you
something nice this week.

Nope, this time around,

I will succeed
at the ring toss.

It's my time. I am due.

If only the Classic
was every year,

you'd have more of a chance.
But, I mean, if this is

what it takes
to get you home.

I can't change
the racing schedule.

The season is five months
of the year.

Yeah, but appearances
and endorsements

during the seven other months,
pay for those five.

Plus, training. You know,
I've got to follow the snow.

Your parents missed you.

It's not like I haven't seen
them. They were at every race.

Yeah. I know. Jenny and I run
the lodge when they're gone.

My mom said that the ski
school is thriving.

You've developed quite
the reputation.

I'm just doing everything
my Dad would've done.

Not everything.

When I left I never thought
you would've quit coaching.

Oh, 'cause I didn't.
I coach the ski team.

Yeah, but you wanted to be
a racing coach.

- It's a racing team.
- Of 12 year-olds.

That's where champions
are born.

No one knows that
more than you.

You could've been so great.

Oh. That did not come out right.

No. I would imagine not.

- You loved coaching.
- I'm actually still coaching!

I'm coaching you right now.

Would you like me to wear
a name tag so you don't forget.

That's not what I meant,
okay?

You know, I feel like I can
ever say anything right

with you, Kay.
- Justin...

we had a plan and it didn't
work out. It happens.

- You still seem pretty angry.
- I'm not upset about it.

I was the one that told you
to go train with Niels.

Did you want me to not go?

Justin,
it's not that you left,

you left, and you-you
barely looked back.

You went away and took our
friendship with you.

And the fact that you don't
even realize that is...

Kayla: ...you know, ground zero.
Like... bunny hill,

I means, he's gotta start--
- Justin on the bunny bill?

- Yes.
- Are there pictures?

- No. Get outta here.
- And then what...?

- Hey, you two.
- Oh...

- You know what, Justin.
- Huh.

This lady knows a thing
or two.

- Hm.
- I know.

And you'd be wise
to listen to her.

Ah, well, I always listen
to my coach.

That's so debatable.

This was a good call -
you two working together again.

The O'Neills and the Greens

have always been a recipe
for success.

I like it.

- Justin?
- S-sorry.

That almost sounded like
positive feedback,

I don't know what
to make of it.

Yeah. Because he's really
proud of you.

He's really proud--

Oh, you're serious.
- Yes.

Everything I do is wrong.

Nothing I do
is the way he'd do it.

That's not why you're here.

No. I came to get see
your father.

About me?

No, contrary to what you may believe,

not everything is always
about you.

It isn't? Well...

this is disappointing news.
- Alright, come on.

Let's get back out there.
- Right now?

But it's opening ceremonies
in the village tonight.

Yeah. I know.
Jenny and I are going.

This is not gonna take
too long.

You know, I'm going
with Wyatt.

Maybe we can meet you there.

- Yeah. If you want.
- I do.

- Okay.
- I-I... oh.

I really am sorry...

for everything.

Justin, you can win this race.

But it's not your knee
that's the problem.

Your head is.
We can fix that.

I know what you're doing.

We used to come out here
at night and plan our path

for world domination
on the race circuit.

You're about to see,
I'm not so cryptic, after all.

You cracked my code.

So what is it that you
want now, Justin O'Neill?

- I wanna win.
- Why?

Because it beats losing?

And?

I feel like that's a good
enough reason.

But what is it, really?

I mean, you've got
countless medals.

A world record that no one
has been able to top.

Why do you wanna win now?

Because racing is all I have.

It's not all you have.

It's all you chose.

- So what about you?
- What?

You don't get off that easy.

We come out here to plot world
domination for the both of us.

So... what do you want,
Kayla Green?

Nothing.
I'm perfectly content.

You were never complacent.

You always had goals. Dreams.

Guys falling at your feet.

Well, I mean, I do teach
people to glide on ice,

So I guess falling
is inevitable.

What about dating?

Ah, you know, like,
a few guys here and there,

but nothing really took.
Not since Vince.

Vince?

Your parents didn't tell you
about him?

We don't... talk about... stuff.

He was an instructor here -
two years ago.

We almost got married.

But your dad talked me
out of it.

Well, he does love telling
people what to do, doesn't he?

He wasn't telling me what
to do, he was protecting me.

My dad? Tom O'Neill?

Yeah. Do you have another dad
that I'm not aware of?

You are lucky to have him.

And your mom, too.

It's really hard losing
both parents and...

yours have both filled that
void for both, me and Jenny.

I know. I know,

it's... complicated
between me and my dad.

I guess, all my relationships
are pretty complicated,

aren't they?

We should go.

Opening ceremony
is at 8 o'clock

and you need a shower.

Race you back?

Huh, hardly sounds fair,
I mean, I am a professional.

Race you?

Oh!

Ha ha!

Last one to the lodge,
buys the first round tonight!

Anna: Justin!

Anna yells: Justin!

- Oh hey Anna!
- I've been calling you!

My phone is on silent.

I'm heading to the carnival
kick off, you want to come?

Raincheck on that.

The president of Snow Voltz Ski
Wear is in the bar

and he wants to meet you.
You need to get in there!

I'm supposed to meet
some friends.

Text them.

You'll be 20 minutes late, tops.

Get in here. Now!

Okay. Okay-okay.
I-I'm coming.

Burt: So I took my inheritance,
retired from snowboarding

and started Snow
Voltz Ski Wear.

Five years in, we're now
one of the top brands.

It's very inspiring
what you've accomplished

at your age.

And we know there's a lots
of competition out there,

but there is no one better
to endorse

Snow Voltz Ski Wear
than Justin.

He's a world champion

and his products sell.

I like you, Justin.

I wanted to bring you into
the fold year one,

but you were tied up

with Mountain Ridge Boots
at the time.

I think you're relatable,
you could bring a nice

"maturity" to our brand.
Expand our reach.

Maturity. Right.

But that was a pretty big
spill you took in Austria,

to be honest, I have yet
to see a skier come back

from an injury like that.

I have to wonder if maybe
our time has passed.

I get the hesitation, okay?
You wanna make sure

that the old Justin is back
before you commit.

But if I didn't think
that I could pull out a win,

I wouldn't put myself on this
international stage.

You'll see after the race,

your worries about me
are completely unfounded.

Alright.

Let's wait and see
what happens on Sunday.

Alright.

Jenny: I'm serious.

- Oh hey, you made it.
- Hi.

Hi.

How are you?

We had to get away from
organizing auctions items,

my head was starting to spin.

You know this family.

When we set our minds
to something...

My son giving you any trouble?
- Of course he is.

But I know how to handle him.
Hey, have you seen him?

He texted that he'd be here
half an hour ago.

Well, yeah, you know Justin.

Phone calls and interviews.
I'm sure they're on their way.

Oh hi! Hi! Welcome!

Welcome to the Winter Classic.

A weeklong celebration
of food, and drink,

and games, and an auction,

and some good old-fashioned
line dancing, you know?

That's right. It's happening
right here in the village,

leading up to the big race
on Sunday.

That's right!
- Woo-hooo!

And all the game proceeds go
to Skiing for Scholarships,

so like from the auction.

We have so many great items
this year.

We have diamond earrings.
Spa services.

Oh, and-and staycations.

So get your checkbooks ready,
okay?

Alright. We'll be back
in a second.

How about some cocoa?
Your treat.

- Okay. I'd love some.
- Oh, get me one too, please.

I know, I know--
I made it as quickly--

Both: Oh finally.

Someone sounds anxious
to see Justin.

I'm not anxious. I just
don't like waiting on people.

You say you're gonna be there
at a certain time,

then you arrive at that time.
- Alright, okay.

Go ahead, lady, if you wanna
"doth protest too much."

I am so sorry,
my manager set up a meeting

and I just couldn't say no-
- It's okay.

They're about to announce
the start list.

Hang on, don't let him off
the hook that easy.

I gave this guy the silent
treatment the whole way here.

Hi. Jenny.
And how are you?

I-I'm good, Wyatt.
How are you?

I'm... yeah.

That was so smooth.

Emcee: And now, to introduce
the Winter Classic racers

is someone who needs
no introduction at all.

Is the current World Slalom
Champion, Nancy Sieber.

Woo!

Wait... ah, is she racing?

I don't see her
on the start list.

Yeah. She's here, training
for the Zurich Invitational,

with Hunter Davies' coach.

Wow. Thank you so much
for that warm welcome,

considering I'm not even
racing this week.

But the line-up is top notch,

and it sure to be quite a race;

with racers like Hunter Davies.

Lars Edmund.
Anthony Norman.

And Winter Mountain's very own,
Justin O'Neill.

Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!

Thank you so much, guys.
We'll see you on Sunday!

Alright. So...

shall we get a drink?
- Oh, you two go.

You gotta get home
and get some rest.

What?

You should've been here earlier.

- Fine, coach.
- Good.

Because tomorrow we're
running the course.

What? No!
Yes? Yes!

Finally, we train.

What was that?

Because that was definitely
not the Justin O'Neill

who took first place
in Zermatt.

Tough love angle, huh?

Oh.

Alright. So maybe
I'm-I'm a little rusty.

And those pillows
at the lodge...

I really gotta talk to my dad
about that.

Those things are so lumpy.
- Pillows?!

- They are awful.
- Okay, excuses and 30 bucks

is gonna get you a ticket
to the race you are not in.

I know. I know. I don't
know what's wrong with me.

I'm all over the place.
- Okay. Alright.

Let's just take a break.

Do you remember when we
were on the junior team?

Some of the best times
of my life.

We had the whole world
ahead of us.

I mean, the whole world
is still ahead of you.

you just have to get back
in that headspace

when nothing mattered
but the wind in your face.

The sound of snow
under my skies.

The rush of it all.

Yeah.

You know, my knee... healed,

what if I never get back
to what I used to be?

My dad used to say,

"Never let success
get to your head

and failure get to your heart."

So once your head is back
in the game,

then your knee is gonna follow.

Thanks, Coach.

- Let's go again.
- Alright.

How is he looking?

Well, he's not favoring
his good knee anymore,

and his turns are solid.

How's the time?

It's improved since
this morning,

but it still not close
to course record.

What else does he need?

He needs positive reinforcement.

Not criticism,

'cause I think his confidence
is a little low.

Confidence has never
been his problem.

Yeah. I know. That's how
you know it's serious.

Looking... looking good
out there, Justin.

Thanks.

So, your mom's auction
is this evening,

I think she was hoping
that you would drop by?

- I was planning on it.
- Okay. Okay, then.

So you're looking good.

- Can I show you something?
- Yeah.

Oh, Justin,
you look very handsome.

I'm not gonna dress like
a slouch on your big night.

Oh. It's really nice
to have you home.

It's nice to be home.

Now, eat. Drink. Be merry.

And bid on some auction items,
would you?

- Deal.
- Okay.

Cheapskate.

Excuse me, but I think
I'm being pretty generous.

Whatever, man.
Next time we host this thing

I'm gonna be a doctor and make
millions for this place.

- I can't wait.
- Alright.

Ski lessons?
Wyatt: Yeah-yeah-yeah.

We got diamond earrings?
Wow.

- Fancy.
- Wow.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Hey.
- Jenny... you look uh...

You look really great,
too, Wyatt.

Thanks.

Dinner with Hunter Davies
is at $500?

Why didn't my mother ask me
to donate anything this year?

Maybe your mom didn't know
that'd be in town this long?

I mean, Hunter offered.

I still don't understand
why she didn't ask.

I mean, I-I've always donated something.

Well, maybe...
you could've offered, too?

Well, I'm offering now.

Let's find something of mine
we can put out on the table.

Okay. Okay.
I will take care of it.

You go sit down.
Live auction is about to start.

And sold! To paddle 107
for $600.

Thank you very much, Sir.

Okay. Um...

Okay. I've just been told that
there had been

a last minute donation
to the live auction

as well as a special
guest auctioneer,

the head of our ski school,

here at Winter Mountain,
Miss Kayla Green.

OW!

Hi how are you?

Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.

I helped secure some of
the items

that we will be auctioning off
this evening,

which benefits Skiing
for Scholarships,

in its 20th year

of sending underprivileged
kids to college,

courtesy of that beautify angel
over there, Gretchen O'Neill.

Man: Great work!

Who wants to know about
this exciting new item

up for bid, huh?

One of you lucky folks is gonna
get to spend the entire day

with World Cup Champion,

multiple medalist,

hawker of everyone's favorite
hiking boots...

Justin O'Neill!

Come on up here, Justin!

Let's send some kids
to college together.

Come on!

A day with this legend,
right here.

Let's start the bidding,
shall we?

$150.
Emcee: $200!

- Do I hear $200!
- $200! $200! $200 over here!

Do I hear $300?
We've got $300?

She's $300 right there!

$500! Look who just upped
the ante.

Justin, look at that!

Do you wanna know something?

I think we can do a little bit
better than that, don't you?

This is the spokesman of the
Arctic Skin Thermals, okay?

You all remember that silly
commercial?

I bet you got paid
a lot of money?

But listen, show us the flex?
Come on, they wanna see it?

They wanna see the flex!

Do I hear $1000?

Look at this guy!
Come on, he's a legend!

2018's Athlete of the Year!
Come on!

He beat them all!
He's a champion!

- Three thousand dollars!
- Whoa!

Okay?

Uh, do I hear... $3500?

$3500!

Ma'am, you-you just outbid yourself.

It's for the kids.

$3500, going once.

Going twice.

Sold. To that beautiful lady

holing paddle number 41
for $3500.

I think that-that's a record
for a single item

at an auction, at this auction,
right Gretchen?

That's correct.
Thank you, Justin.

No uh...

thank you all for your generosity.

Wow.

- I like this.
- What?

My old friend is back.

Remember when we used
to sneak out as kids

and come up here?
- Watch the night skiers?

Yeah. Throw snowballs
at them.

Run and hide? Yes.
Jenny: Huh, memories.

I'm glad that
we're making new ones.

I thought I had it
all figured out.

Go pro and take on the world.

Ah, Justin,
that's exactly what you did.

So...

You-- okay?

You're living the good life, man.

Premieres, parties,
beautiful actresses.

I mean, not that I'm into
that kind of thing -

I am really not.
- Okay.

You know, none of that
stuff is real.

You-you're always wondering
if people like you

for who you are or
what you can do for them.

Well, you know,
our dad always said,

"You gotta focus on the people
who loved you

when you were invisible
to everyone else."

No one knows you like
those you came up with.

Yeah, you know,
being back with you, guys,

the auction,
the night skiers out there...

this is real.

Hey, you got to where
you wanted to go, man.

Not everyone can say that.

I mean, I wanted to be
a Backstreet Boy,

when I was younger

Look at me now.
Consider yourself lucky, pal.

I know. I don't mean
to sound ungrateful.

Oh,
you're so good at it.

Ha ha!

Justin, what are you
doing here this morning?

Oh, just thinking.

This room seemed ginormous
when I was a kid.

Well, you were
much shorter then.

Ah. Good point.

Hey Mom,

what was it like being
married to Dad,

when he was on the circuit.

Exciting.

And challenging.

But we made it work.

What about when he retired?

Were you disappointed?
- Oh, not a t all.

We finally got the chance
to build something, together.

Or besides you that is.

Honey, if I've learned anything

from living with your father,

is, that sometimes it's best to
step back from all the noise,

and think about what it is that
would make you truly happy.

Hm. The simple question.

Right now, you're just a guy,

sitting in a room,
tying to figure it all out.

What does that guy see
when he looks to his future?

And keep it vague. Don't give
specific times or techniques.

Just be very positive
and upbeat.

- Okay.
- Smiling.

Smiling the whole time.
This is a big deal.

Justin is a comeback story.

And everybody loves
a great comeback.

He knows the drill,
but are you doing okay?

Kayla?
- Yes.

I left my body for a minute.
I'm good.

You can do this.
Forget about the cameras.

You're just having
a conversation

with your very good friend
and this nice lady.

Right. Got it.

Okay.

Maggie: Ah, Justin, let's
get you here on the right,

and Kayla here on the left. Alright.

- Alright. Ooh!
- Careful there.

You okay?

Yeah. Great.

Oh.

Hi, how are you?
- Hi.

If you get nervous,
just look in my eyes.

Connect with me, okay?

I got you.
- Okay.

In fact,

The Winter Classic was the
first race you ever won?

And then, you went on to win
it again, two other years.

So what's different
about this year?

Well, I wasn't recovering
from an knee injury,

so there's that.

But, no, I-I'm coming along.
I'm healing...

in every sense of the word.

And I owe a lot of that

to this exceptional woman
right here.

She's not only my coach,
but a really good friend.

I'm looking at this Winter
Classic as a way to get back

so many things that I've lost.

Like that medal he should've
won in Austria.

He was on track for it,
like he is for this race.

So Kayla,

after Justin joined
the professional circuit,

you didn't coach again.

Not a professional racer,
Maggie, no.

I mean, how do you top,
working with this guy?

Even if was a long time ago.

But I am happy to say that
our Winter Mountain Lodge

junior racers, have taken
the state alpine championship,

three years running.
- Wonderful.

Well, I think I speak
for everyone when I say,

we are four days away

and we can't wait
to see how you two do,

together, on that mountain, again.

Take a run with me.

Ah... no, I need to watch
from down here.

Come on, one run.

Please.

Come on, warm me up
like old times.

Pretty-pretty-pretty-pretty
please.

I'll go get my stuff.

♪ This is it

♪ It's the moment
and the magic ♪

♪ We can hold
and never forget ♪

♪ This is it

♪ It's the start
of a lifetime of meaning ♪

♪ From reliving all
the dreaming we did ♪

♪ This is it!

That was very graceful.

And there wasn't even a team
of 12 year-olds

to take me out
like some people I know.

Careful,

it's...

slippery.

- Hi.
- Hi.

You look kinga lonely
down here.

- You okay?
- Yeah.

How is your knee?

Feels good.

This feels good.
- Does it?

I think I have snow
up my back a little bit.

I meant this - us.

You know, back together, again.

Yes, it's nice.
It's nice.

You know, I think you're
sufficiently warmed up

and I think we gotta
get back to work.

Right.

You okay?

Yeah.

That happens from time to time.

Remember, it's not my knee,
it's my head.

Yeah, believe it not your
head is actually improving,

I-I'm a little bit nervous
about this knee.

It's fine. Look, I have
so much metal in there.

I'm practically bionic.

If it's sore
we should treat it.

And not exacerbate
any inflammation.

I'm fine.

What did I tell you
about fighting with me?

I don't really remember
anything in particular

about fighting,
but there was listening,

obeying... tree pose.

The correct answer is; Kayla,
I will do whatever you say.

And I will not ever argue
with you...

and you're perfect.

- That is a mouthful.
- Just try it.

I will do whatever you say, Kayla,

I will not argue with you...

You're per--

perfect.

Justin, where is this all
coming from?

Let's go ice your knee.

What are you waiting for?
You need me to carry you?

Nope. I'm good.

Just tightening my boot buckles.

Be right down.

Wyatt: So I mean,
if you're not doing anything,

there is, there is a party
for my graduating class.

You should come.
- Yeah, no, I mean, I...

I'd love to. Just, you know,
send me the details.

Okay.

- You can like rest on me...
- I'm alright. I'm alright.

because I can like handle it.
I'm like pretty strong.

What? What did you do
to yourself?

It's-it's nothing.
I'm just a little sore.

I mean, that's not uncommon
for that type of injury,

but what are you doing to
maintain your physical therapy,

while you're training.

Not much,
haven't really needed it.

Well, today's your
lucky day, J,

we're gonna start on a full
PT regimen.

So the deep heat will help
circulation in the ligament

and help with pain
and inflammation.

We're gonna have to do this
at least once a day

before the race,
and ice it at least twice.

It's very impressive, Wyatt.

Thanks.

You should probably call it a
day on the training for now.

Start fresh tomorrow.
- A night off.

Well, I guess a can get
a little rest.

Ah, not do fast mister.

There are some not-fixed
carnival games

with our names written
all over them.

Alright, the knee
may be questionable,

but my ring toss arm is sharp.

Plus there's line dancing
in the square.

Normally on Tuesday we go
do that at the saloon but...

I love line dancing.

You hate line dancing.

Okay. You haven't been here
in a long time.

No, no,
he's really good at it.

You're gonna love it, trust me.

Everyone goes,
we wear cute boots...

Great, then it's a date.

I mean, not a date. Date.

Unless, unless you want it
to be a date. Is it a date?

Should it be a date?
- It's a date. Just--

It's a date.

Hey son...

Are you okay?

Ah, just a little sore.

Totally normal for an injury
like mine.

Justin, sit down
for a minute.

I had an ultrasound
treatment today,

and I'll have another tomorrow.

What did Kayla say
about your turns?

She mentioned they
were inconsistent.

Dad, you don't need
to micro manage me.

I know what I'm doing.
- I never said you didn't.

Then why don't we ever talk
about something else?

Like Fantasy Football,
or the weather.

Oh... yeah.

You know, this is what
my father did to me.

He rode me so hard
and I hated it.

But I was a winner...

Mm-hmm. You were the best.

Justin, you're better
than I ever was.

It's not even close.

Really?

I knew you were a champion
from the get-go.

Because you're a true natural.

Ah...

you know, I don't know if I can
get back there.

I'm healed but it just doesn't
feel the same.

So you have to work
ten times harder.

And I'm saying this not out
of judgment,

just... it's from experience.

What if I don't win
the Classic? What if--

What if I'm done?

I just, I just wanna
make you proud.

Of course I'm proud of you.

Oh! Yes! Yes-yes-yes!

Oh!

- Oh! Aghh!
- Go!

- Alright! Woo!
- Yeah!

- Oh come on!
- Yes!

That's alright.
I wasn't even trying anyway.

Um, I want you to keep this.

So that you remember that
the game is not fixed

and that just I beat you.

Hm. That's so sweet.

I will cherish this forever.

- Hm.
- Mm-hmm.

Heh.

Can't believe he finally did it
after all these years.

Maybe the bear won her heart.

Hm. Well, then this
wins a toe.

A big toe.

Ah, I'll have a beer and--

What? I can have one beer.

I will have his beer,
you can get him a club soda.

Oh, what's that?

The fish says you're bossy.

Well, you tell the fish,
that's what you pay me for.

- Oh, thank you.
- Thank you.

She is dedicated.

Yeah. Well, she's the only
one who stuck by me

after the injury.

They called it
a "career ender,"

but she never doubted
my comeback.

Well, it's nice to
have someone like that

in your corner.

You know, you were always
in my corner.

I'm sorry I walked out
of yours.

How is your confidence
tonight?

Oh, on a scale of panic
to arrogance,

I'd give myself,
a mildly assured.

- Hm.
- But, you know,

there is no pain right now
so that's good.

I'm not talking
about your knee.

I-I'm talking
about your dance moves?

Oh, Wyatt said I should, you
know, probably rest my knee,

so I'd better pass.
- Ah, please,

line dancing is like
walking with music.

You're cleared for
the dance floor, partner.

Oh, great.

Great.

♪ You can lead the way

This isn't so hard.

Wait you guys do this too?!

Every week.

Kayla and Jenny
introduced us.

It's great exercise.

What is going on?
My parents are line dancing.

Yeah. You should hang out
with us more often.

We're fun.

No-no-no. Kick.

You be good to her.

Yes, Sir.

I told you
he was a good man.

And so is his son.

The old Justin is back.

Yeah, feels good to be back.

You know, I spent my life
trying to be this

great champion, like my dad.

Well, you succeeded.

But I was chasing more
than just the win.

I wasn't sure what it was,
but something was missing.

Oh, did you figure it out?

I think I did tonight.

You know, I wanted an gold
medal, and I got it.

I wanted to be a world
champion. Done.

There was one thing I think
I always wanted

that I could never have.

What is that?

You.

Justin O'Neill...

you never asked.

Yeah.

Get some sleep.

Because we're changing
your training

to the Winter Classic run tomorrow.

Goodnight, Sir.

Goodnight, Kayla.

So we did all that crazy
line dancing,

and then I walked her home.

And?

A gentleman does not
kiss and tell.

Well, it did take you
15 years,

so I guess good things come
to those who wait, right?

Yeah. Yeah, I guess.

So, how about you and Kayla?

You seemed a bit friendly
last night.

You know me and Kay.
We've always been close.

Ah-ha.

Any pain?

A little.

But I've got three days.
We'll keep working on it.

Yeah. Maybe I should quit
while I'm a head.

Join you on the road.
I can be your team doctor.

I can be your... your entourage.

Your personal umbrella carrier.

Yeah... I mean,
if everything goes well,

I should be back out on the
circuit in a few weeks.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Just me and you on the road,
huh?!

- Yeah.
- Hey. No.

Dude, me and Jenny,
we're finally dating.

I can't leave home now.

You're on your own, buddy.
You're on your own.

Hm...

Kayla: You seem to be
getting over that.

I am. He's sweet.

You know, it's about time
you came around, too.

It's been what?
Two years since Vince.

Well, I date.

It's just hard meeting
people in a town

when everyone is always coming
and going, once the snow melts.

I mean, I can think of one
person who might interest you.

Really good-looking,
ski champ who just happens

to be in town for the Winter
Classic this Sunday.

Oh yes. Hunter Davies...

oh god, no,
he's too young for me.

Kay, you've been in love
with Justin O'Neill

since we were kids,
don't try and deny it.

You guys always had a thing.
- I am his coach, Jenny.

There has to be...

you know, boundaries.

But you like coaching
at this level again.

Yes, I love it.

Okay. So go on the road
with him.

Like the two of you planned to, before.

This is your chance at giving
your dream a real shot, Kay.

Do not let it slip away again.

Kayla: Woo!
That-that was better.

- How much better?
- Well, let's just focus

on strength and relaxation
for the next few runs.

Because I can see you're-
you're tense.

It's in your jaw.
- Yeah.

Your form looked good
up there.

- Oh, Nancy. Big fan.
- Ditto.

You know, I had an ACL tear
a couple years ago.

Looks like you're doing
everything right.

Both of you.

Oh. Well, thank you
for saying that.

- Good luck on Sunday.
- Thank you.

Alright. Let's do it.

Relaxed, focused,

like when you skied Cortina.
Let's go.

Alright.

Alright.

Alright.

Relax.

Relax.

Are you okay?!

Justin! Justin! Ju--

What was my time?

1:11:44.

Two tenths off the course
record! Yes!

What about your knee?

Knee is good, head is good.

I'm gonna take one more run.

Then, I'm taking you to dinner.
Ha ha!

Let's go!

I am so sorry, I'm late.

Our favorite instructor
he almost quit today,

because we have these twins,
these Ainsleys,

and they come up every season

and they're a little bit
unruly? So we had to try

and talk him out of it.
- It's okay. It's okay.

It's not the first time I've
been left waiting on a date.

This is a date?

- What did you think it was?
- Like a dinner.

It is a dinner date.

Oh. Didn't we already
try that once?

We were 18. And you had
a crush on Matt Fitzsimmons

and talked about him
the whole time.

I dodged a bullet
with that one

because he is now in jail.
- Whoa! What? No?

I'm just kidding.
He runs the pharmacy.

But he knows all our secrets

so we have to stay
in his good graces.

Yeah. Everyone...
knows everything

about everyone around here.
- Yeah, it's part of our charm.

I know.

Oh, table is ready.
- Okay.

Kayla: Kris Davenport
come to town...

Justin: Hm.
Like the Kris Davenport?

Yeah, and he wanted to
impress his new girlfriend

so he signed up for a lesson
at the Lodge.

I mean, this guy
is like James Bond,

he hangs out of helicopters
in his movies,

but you put him in a pair
of skis,

he can't even stand upright.

That's incredible.

Sorry. Can I get your
autograph?

Yeah. Yeah.

Hold that thought?
- That-this is important.

Thanks. What's your name, bud?
- Brady

Brady.

- Hey, are you a big fan?
- Yeah.

Yeah? Me, too.
Between you and me,

I think he's going to win
that race on Sunday,

so I would save that autograph.

It's nice to meet you.

Thanks.

You know what? I'll catch
you all on my way out,

okay? Promise.

Thank you.

Sorry. Ah, so you were saying,
Kris Davenport...

So he hired one of our ski instructors

to wear his ski clothes,
and go down the run

while his new girlfriend watched

from the balcony up above.

- He hired a stunt double?
- Hired a stunt double.

This is not for a movie.
This was in real life.

Celebrities can be crazy.

I mean, not like...
not all of them.

Hm.

Do you wanna address the
elephant in the room now?

I don't think they
allow elephants

in this establishment.
- You kissed me.

- You kissed ME.
- You liked it.

- I didn't actually say that.
- You didn't like it?

I didn't say that either.

Ah-ha.
So what does this mean?

I don't know, you tell me.

You're the one that's leaving
after the Classic.

What if I didn't?

You're thinking of retiring?

I don't know. Competing never
felt like a job,

but the thought of leaving

and going out on the circuit
again just...

doesn't really excite me
anymore. I don't know.

Suddenly, I can see my future
and it looks a lot different.

How?

I feel like it's here.

With my family at the lodge...

with you.

What do you think about that?

You really think he's serious
about staying?

I don't know. Maybe.

Or maybe he's looking
for a contingency plan,

in case he doesn't win and he's
forced into early retirement.

Okay. It's only one race.

He's still got some years left
in him, if he wants it.

Did you mention going with him?

There really wasn't
any point.

Okay. So... coaching?

Just because he's done
doesn't mean you have to be.

No, the time for me
to have really gone for this

was 14 years ago,
right after Justin left.

You're not gonna know
until you try.

Kay, this was your dream!

Maybe dreams can change.

I don't know.

There he is.
Are you ready for Sunday?

I will be. I have one more
day of training.

Good.

I'm not nervous.
Is that weird?

Oh, the absence of nerves,
it was always welcome for me.

But I mean, they're come back
when you hit the starting gate.

When did you know it was time
for you to hang up your hat?

I guess, I felt like
I had done everything

that I wanted to do, and it was
time to set down some roots.

Hm.

And yeah, I missed being
on the circuit, but...

nah, I never regretted it.

You know what...

I have something for you.

Hang on.

- Your lucky pin.
- Yeah.

Wore it in every race
after I won my first medal.

Except one,
I forgot it at home.

- The Swiss Downhill in '84?
- Yeah.

- Huh.
- Yeah.

This brought me a lot of luck.

I put it in a drawer
the day we bought this place,

and now it's yours.

Go on.

I should've given it to you
years ago.

I guess...
I was trying to hold on.

Thanks, Dad.

I will say this though, Justin.

When the time does come
for you to call it a day...

it'll be very clear.

Nancy: Kayla. Hi.
- Oh hey.

- We sort of met the other day.
- No, of course. I remember.

I'm actually glad
I ran into you.

Can we go somewhere and talk?
- Sure. I-I know a place.

- Oh amazing.
- How are you doing?

Fine.

And you've got some great
training courses here

so I'm doing a bit of a trial
with Al Fielding.

He trains Hunter Davies,

and we wanted to see
if he'd be a good fit.

- He's one of the very best.
- He is. Yes.

And I'm just not feeling him
at all.

You know, he--

Well, Hunter requires
a lot of attention.

He's a star.
- Yeah, but so are you.

Maybe so, but that's not
what it's about for me.

Yeah. It's a delicate balance.

I know that can be very hard.
- Yeah.

What's even harder is just
trying to find the right coach.

- Mm-hmm.
- It's like a marriage, you know?

If only there was an app
to help you find your mate.

Well, my dad said,

a key to a good pairing
is just when you each bring

something to the table that
the other can benefit from.

And what do you bring
to the table?

Sorry?

I've been doing some
poking around.

Asked a few questions about you
and I like what I'm hearing.

From who?

Well, Tom O'Neill,
for starters.

He thinks the world of you.

And I've always thought
the world of him.

I used to watch him when he
trained with your father.

Yeah. They were quite a team.

Yes, oh, they were.

He also mentioned that you're
something of a temporary coach

for Justin O'Neill.

This is true.
We've known each other forever

and I used to coach him
back in the day.

What about after the Classic?

Are you going to continue
with him?

I... don't know.

I-I mean, I run the ski school
and I coach the junior racers--

I've been watching you
this week,

and I think you're a real talent.

Thank you.

Look, I leave early Sunday
morning for the Zurich

Invitational next week.
Then onto Courchevel to train.

I've got a place out there

and I would love for you
to come on board as my coach.

Oh, Nancy, I am so flattered, I...

but I-I can't leave Justin
right before the race.

I know. It's a lot to ask.

But you did your job
and you did it well.

I watched him out there today,

he's ready.

So the thing to consider is...

what's the next step for you?

Why don't you think about it
and we can talk later?

Do you have a few minutes
to talk? Can I come over?

Yeah. I'm on the patio
in front of the Lodge.

Hey. Hey.

Hey.

You know, I was just thinking
about something

my dad said to me.
- What's that?

He said, "you'll know
when it's time."

Time for what?

The next chapter.

And I'm ready. I ready.

There is no roots for me
in New York.

I want a life,
I want a family.

I want to ski all day
and sit out here at night.

Everything I care
about is right here.

Nothing has ever been
more clear.

I need to tell you something.

Nancy Sieber asked me
to be her coach.

Wow.

That's... not what I was
expecting you to say.

Um...

you have to do it, Kay.

It's your turn.

That's what I came
to tell you.

I mean, I just need to see
or else...

I'll always regret it.

You are gonna be so great.

There's more.

She's leaving Sunday morning
before the race.

Oh...

She, she just needs
a few days in Zurich

to acclimate and prep
for the Invitational.

Then onto her place
to train in France.

That's really short notice.

I feel so terrible
leaving you like this.

Don't. Don't.

I'm ready, Kay,
because of you.

You-you got me back.

Well, you know, I want you
to run the course tomorrow,

but don't over do it.

And I am available by phone
in the morning

before we get on that plane
by 9:00.

It's okay, believe me.

There is nothing my dad
would love more

than to take over my last
day of training.

You know, I can come back
in the off-season.

It doesn't have to be the end.

I don't wanna hold you back.

This-this life can take over,

and I want you to experience
everything it has to offer.

I love you.

I've always loved you,
Justin O'Neill.

Me too.

Just wish we could have
figured it out sooner.

Gretchen: We're gonna miss you
around here.

I talked to the parents
of the Mountain Junior Racers,

they're so thrilled
that Jenny is taking over.

Tom: Good.

Well, they might change
their minds

after the first couple
of lessons.

Gretchen: Stop it.
- You're gonna be great.

And I'm always here to help.

It's going to be so quiet
without her.

I'm even going to miss
her snoring.

- Oh stop.
- Okay. She's not gonna have

time to miss me
because she has a Wyatt now.

Now listen, you
call us anytime, Kayla.

For anything.
- We mean that.

I cannot thank you enough
for all that you've do for us.

Tom: Thank you for all
you've done for Justin.

Can you go easy on him?

Hey, easy doesn't win races.

What? I'm kidding.
Come on.

Gretchen: You got him
where he needs to be,

and Tom will gently guide him
over the finish line.

But quickly...

I love you.

Take good care.

Kayla: Alright,
I'm going home to pack,

You ready?
- Yeah.

How was it?

Justin that was good.
A minute, fourteen.

Looked a little icy up there.

Not my best time.

I'm gonna take one more run.
- No.

Don't overdo it. You wanna be
fresh for tomorrow.

Dad, I gotta shave
some time off.

What you're gonna do, is
you gonna trust yourself, huh?

You're a champion.

You're gonna shave off
more time when it counts.

You've got this.

Son... you do.

You've got this.

You all packed?

All packed and ready with
a shiny, new passport.

Oh, remind me to renew mine.

Because I am gonna come
and visit you in Europe.

Oh, any time.

Are you excited?!
- Yeah.

- You paused.
- I was-I was breathing.

Hmm. It was a pause
slash breath.

Are you sure this is
really what you want?

Yeah.

It was just hard saying
goodbye to Justin last night.

Aw. But it's not goodbye forever.

You know,
it's just goodbye for now.

Announcer: The day we have
all been waiting for

is finally here,
as we are now just hours away

from the 55th Annual Winter
Classic Men's Downhill.

The pancakes give me
a little bit extra weight.

I ate too much.

Ah, conditions are perfect.

- No kidding.
- Mm-hmm.

They're good.

Yeah, conditions look good
out there,

and I'll definitely be able
to handled it

now that I'm part
of the Snow Voltz Team.

Maggie: Wow, congratulation.

Oh thank you. Thank you.
I'm very proud.

They told me
he hadn't decided.

- He clearly has now.
- Don't let it throw you.

They aren't the only game
in town.

There are other sponsors here.

I'm fine. It's okay.

Everything that doesn't serve
you up there is just noise.

Block it out.
- Consider it blocked.

How are you feeling, Justin?

I got a good night's sleep.
Knee is strong.

I'm ready to go.
- I'm loving the confidence.

So what do have to you say
to all those people

who have chosen Hunter Davies
as the favorite to win today?

I'd say...

the final race of a man's
career should be

one for the books.

So stay tuned.

Justin are you announcing
your retirement?

- 'Scuse me.
- Thank you very much.

Reporters: Justin,
are you retiring?

Justin, one more comment?
- You're sure?

- Yep.
- We had a good run.

We had a great run.

Okay.
Let's go get you ready.

Let's do this.

So you ready to start
this adventure?

- Yes, I am.
- This is a bit of a whirlwind,

but I want you to know that I
have a good feeling about this.

Thank you so much
for believing in me.

Yeah. So I wanna go over
the rankings in the car

and develop a strategy.

You'll see there's not
a lot of air

between first and third place
- Right.

and I intend to crack that.

I know, it's hard
to leave home.

I feel that way every time.

No, I'm fine.
We're gonna get you on top.

- Are you sure you're okay?
- Yes.

Okay. So, Renata Verini
had a great run in Finland,

but hasn't been able to
crack the top three since.

Announcer: It's a beautiful day
here on Winter Mountain

and the 55th annual
Winter Classic!

Today the question on
everybody's mind is,

Can three time Classic Gold
Medal Winner, Justin O'Neill,

pull an upset over the current
odds-on favorite,

newcomer Hunter Davies.

Our first racer on the day,
Lars Edmund,

Has the most career firsts
place wins

of anyone in this years
Winter Classic.

And he's off!

Anthony Norman another
first-timer for this Classic,

has yet to place
in the top three

since joining the professional
circuit in 2019.

Justin, mo matter
what happens here,

you've had a career
to be proud of.

I learned from the best.

Okay.

Remember you stay high in
that turn on the forth knoll.

- Great.
- Hey...

go get 'em.
- Alright.

Man: Hunter Davies
to the start gate.

Hunter Davies
to the start gate.

Hey. Good luck.

May the best man win.

Announcer: It's been
an exciting Classic

with only six tenths
of a second

separating fourth place
from first,

with only two racers to go.

Hunter Davies determined
to make a good showing

in his first Classic is
favorite to win today's race

based on his current rankings.

Wow! Hunter Davies the youngest
member of the US Ski Team,

takes the lead!

That was an amazing run!

Man: Justin O'Neill
to the start gate.

Justin O'Neill
to the start gate.

Woman: Yeah. That's right!

Oh boy.

Announcer: And our last racer
of the day,

three time Winter Classic
Champion, Justin O'Neill.

Who just today announced his
retirement from the circuit.

Can he bring home
win number four.

One last time.

HA!

- Good start. Good start.
- Good start.

Announcer: This is the
Justin O'Neill we all remember

before taking that spill
in Austria.

Come on, Justin.
Come on.

Announcer: Justin O'Neil
is looking

better than ever, folks!

And if he's able to maintain
this pace

rounding that final turn
we could have an upset here.

- Come on, Justin!
- He's on fire!

Atta boy, J!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Announcer: In an incredible
upset,

Justin O'Neill, who just today
announced his retirement,

has overtaken Hunter Davies

and set a new course record

to win the Winter Classic!

Yeah!

Woo-hoo-hoo!

You did it!

Oh...

You did good.

You did it!

What a race!

It was good luck.

No. You didn't need the luck.

- You were amazing.
- Oh. Thank you, Mom?

I'll be back.

What are you doing here?

What... what about Nancy
and Zurich and--

She went on to Zurich
without me,

but she'll be back
after the race.

'Cause she's gonna train here
with me.

- Really?
- Yes!

'Cause I'm gonna be
a professional coach.

And I'm gonna do it here
from Winter Mountain.

I mean, after all we do have the
best training courses around.

That, we do.

Wow, so, it really is true...

you can have roots
and your dreams.

That's my plan.

This is where I belong.

This is where we belong.
