Hey, Gracie.

I'm so glad we caught you
before you left.

Look at these samples.

Organic pacifiers.

Oh, fabulous.

I can see
Luna loves hers.

I stopped
at the bank yesterday

to put in my half
of the investment money.

Excellent. I will have my
dad transfer in my half.

I can't believe
we're doing this.

Uh, I can.

We've only been
talking about starting

our own business together
since we were, like, eight.

Yeah. But I want everything
to go smoothly.

Remember when we cut
our price on Kool-Aid

and put Amy Klein's lemonade
stand out of business?

This is us.
It's going to be flawless.

Yeah, but we only have one product.
Is that enough?

Baby steps.

Oh, my gosh,
"Baby Steps."

That's got to be the name
of our company.

You're right,
that's perfect.

Oh. Okay.

Which one
do you like better?

This?

Or...

Both.

Yeah?

I agree.

Hawaii, here I come.

Cold snow and ice,
here we come.

You know, you could
all stay for free

at the resort
with me and my dad.

I know.
But I promised Chris

that we'd spend the holidays
at his parents' house.

Plus, this tiny lady has a
first date with a snowman.

Oh, you are going to melt that
snowman's heart, aren't you?

Molly, town car's here.

Oh, I gotta go.

- Okay, bye.
- Talk to you soon.

Bye.

Coming.

Daddy,
where are your bags?

Uh, change in plans.

What's going on?

Look, I have
some bad news, baby.

Gallant Resorts
is going under.

Under where?

What are you talking about?

The recent drop
in hotel occupancy

has forced our corporation
into bankruptcy.

I'm the head of marketing.
How could I not know about this?

Well, I'm meeting with the
board of directors next week.

Wait a minute. Am...

Am I out of a job?

No, no, no.
I hope not.

Well, at least Gracie and
I have out investment money

and are ready to go.

Yeah, about that.

What?

What? What?

Isn't this
what you always wanted,

for me to go off and create my
own business, just like you did,

and use
my marketing skills?

Yes, of course.

Where's
my investment money?

Gracie is counting on me.
What am I supposed to do?

Look, it's not ideal,

but I think I know of a way
for you to get your money back.

How, sell my kidneys?

Not yet.

Remember the house that
your mother grew up in?

The one in Spearmint Valley?

Peppermint Hollow.

Who makes up
these names?

We went there a few times
when you were still little,

before your mother
passed away.

Yes, I remember. She used to
take me riding on chocolate chip.

Yes, exactly.

Your name
is on the deed, Molly.

So go. Sell it.

You can use the money
for your business.

My assistant
switched your flights.

She's told the tenants
you're coming,

and she made an appointment with
the real estate agent in town.

Now, if you leave now,
you can just make it.

What about Hawaii?

Ugh.

- Oh, hi.
- Oh.

What can I get for you?

Uh, anything warm
with caffeine.

Ooh. How about
a Peppermint Hollow mocha?

It's our specialty.

Do you have anything
without mint?

You don't like mint?

- Well...
- Are you allergic to mint?

No.

So, you just
don't like mint.

A latte with no foam.

You want that with mint?

- I'm just teasing you.
- Funny.

That'll be 3.99.

- Uh, keep the change.
- Oh, thank you, hon.

First time
in Peppermint Hollow?

Uh, no,
it's just been a while.

Well, Christmas is the best
time of year to be here.

I'll bet it is.

And so is Hawaii,
which is where I'll be for the holiday.

Oh, I hear
it's beautiful there.

You've never been?

I've never been out
of Peppermint Hollow.

- Never?
- Nope.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

And here's a mint brownie
bite on the house.

No, thanks.

Well, Merry Christmas.

It will be.

She'll be back.

Excuse you.

Excuse me? Excuse you.
I just saved your life.

By pushing me?

I just took a snowball
to the head for you.

What snowball?

Exactly.

You owe me an apology.

I think you owe me
an apology.

You were a half second away
from eating a faceful of coffee.

Because of you.

Let's just agree
to disagree.

I'm Noah.

- Molly.
- Nice to meet you.

- Let me buy you another coffee.
- Oh, no, I have to run.

You sure?

Yeah. Obviously the universe is
telling me to cut back on caffeine.

Or it's telling you
to switch to decaf.

Merry Christmas.

They're all
so cheery here.

Hi, Patrick.
Uh, this is Molly Gallant.

I had an appointment
at 11:00-ish.

Uh, I have a property
I'd like to sell right away,

so if you could just
give me a call back

and let me know
when we could meet.

Thanks.

Hi. Molly again.

Uh, your sign said,
"Be back soon."

"Soon" like a few minutes,
hours, days?

Just curious,
because as I mentioned before,

I'm in a bit of a rush.

Thank you.

Oh, my gosh. Wow.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Are your parents here
by any chance?

Oh, they died
when I was a baby.

Who is it, Dakota?

Oh.
Come to apologize?

Not quite.

Uncle Noah,
do you know her?

I, uh, saved her life
back in town.

No, he didn't.
Uh, what are you doing here?

I live here.
What are you doing here?

Uh, well,
I was just passing through,

and I thought,
"Why not take a tour?"

We don't give tours.

Not even for the owners?

The Gallants own
our property.

Molly Gallant,
property owner.

Oh, my gosh. Molly.

I haven't seen you since you
were knee-high to a grasshopper.

Your dad's office
called this morning,

said somebody
would be stopping by.

I had no idea
it was gonna be you.

Oh, you probably
don't even remember me.

- Oh.
- Mmm.

I'm Kim.
I'm an old friend of your mom's.

And my goodness,
look at you.

You're all grown up.
And you...

You are just
a spitting image of Sarah.

You knew my mom?

Oh, we grew up together.
I was...

I was just gutted
when I heard she passed.

Oh, my Lord,
you must be freezing.

You look like
you're dressed for Hawaii.

Oh, I'm headed there
after this.

Oh, you're serious?

How about that tour?

Let me get you
some boots.

Oh, no, thanks.
I'm good.

Suit yourself.

Be careful
on those steps.

I'll just grab my jacket,
and I'll show you the family business.

Oh.

Wow. You okay?

You knew
that was gonna happen.

I most certainly did not.

Let's agree to disagree.

I'm fine.

Here it is.

What is that?

- It's mint.
- Of course it is.

It's not what I imagined.

It looks like
a science lab in here,

but at least it's warm.

Well, greenhouses tend to
be about 30 degrees warmer

than the outside
temperature.

I wish I were
30 degrees warmer

than the
outside temperature.

You get used to the cold.

I could never get used
to the cold.

70 degrees and sunny
is more my style.

This mint smells so minty.

Well, when you smell mint,
your brain releases

mood-determining hormones
into the body.

It's a natural relaxer.

I don't need mint
to feel relaxed.

Clearly.

Listen, um, I actually...

Grandma's making dinner,
and she wants you to stay.

Thank you.

Uh, I'm just gonna
grab a bite in town.

Oh, no, you're gonna
want to stay.

She makes the best mashed
potatoes you'll ever eat.

Oh, I'm not big on carbs.

She made apple pie
for dessert.

I'm cutting down on sugar.

Oh, come on.
We'll round up kale and water.

It'll be great.

So... you said that you and
my mom grew up together.

- We sure did.
- Were you good friends?

Well, not right away.

We both liked
the same boy.

Oh, yeah?

But then it turned out

he was interested in
another girl all along.

His loss.

Turned out for the best,
really.

If it weren't for him,
I don't think Sarah and I

would have become
such good friends.

So, how did you
wind up living here?

When Sarah went off
to school in California,

she wanted somebody she knew
to take care of the place.

I don't think she ever really
wanted to sell.

So, when my
late husband and I

decided to expand
our mint business,

she convinced us
to move in here,

and it's been our home
ever since.

What exactly do you do
in Los Angeles?

Uh, well, I'm going
into a partnership

with my best friend,
Gracie.

We're developing a line
of organic baby products.

But my day job is Director of
Marketing for Gallant Resorts.

- Oh.
- Huh.

What does that mean?
What exactly do you do?

Uh, we sell
the experience.

So, I like to break it down
into four categories,

research, awareness,
promotion,

and my favorite,
relationships.

I get to meet people
from all over the world.

Any celebrities?

- A few.
- Who?

Well, I'm not supposed
to say,

but Leonardo DiCaprio

visited our Oahu property
last Christmas.

No way. Really?

Kissed me on the cheek.

You are so lucky.

So, what is there to do
in Spearmint...

Peppermint Hollow?

Well, we host our annual

Winters Mint Christmas
Eve party every year.

It's a potluck.
Come one, come all.

Fun.

And Gran makes
her famous Christmas cookies,

and we dance
and we sing.

All the fixings
for a magical winter's eve.

So, Molly, you said
something about Hawaii.

Uh, yes, my... my dad and I
spend Christmas there together.

It's our tradition.

Why did you come all the way
from Los Angeles for a tour?

It's not really
on the way.

Excellent question.

I, um...

I hadn't been here in a while,
so I thought, "Why not visit?

Get a tour.
Get back to my roots."

Uh, I mean, well,
my dad wanted me to check it out,

so here I am
checking it out.

And everything looks good,

so I will tell him that
when I see him in Hawaii.

Speaking of checking out,

uh, do you have
any hotel recommendations?

Oh, nonsense.
You're gonna stay here with us.

Oh, no.
I don't wanna impose.

Honey, look outside.

I don't think you could go
anywhere tonight.

I know it's not much,
but hopefully this will do.

No, it's perfect.
Thank you.

Oh, my pleasure.

Did you know this was your mom's
room, growing up?

- Really?
- Yeah.

I mean, I know
it's a little faded,

but I think
you can still see it.

Here. Take a look.

Wow.

Well, if you need anything,
anything at all,

- just let me know, all right?
- Yes, I will. Thank you.

- Sleep well. Nighty-night.
- Goodnight.

Do you really think she came
all this way just for a tour?

I don't know
what brought her here.

But she's dressed
for a luau,

and it gets
cold upstairs,

so why don't you go
bring her another blanket?

Fine.

But I think we both know
why she's here.

Well, it's freezing
and the town's tiny,

but the people who live here
are really nice,

and one of them
was friends with Mom.

Oh, Kim,
that's right.

How's the turndown service?
Did you get a mint on your pillow?

There's mint everywhere,
except my pillow.

This whole town
smells like mouthwash.

Well, you'll be
on a plane soon.

Just remember, you're there for
one purpose and one purpose only.

I know.

How was the meeting
with the real estate agent?

Well, I was there at
11:00-ish and he wasn't,

so I'm waiting
to hear back.

But I was thinking,
I could offer to sell it to them.

You know, this isn't just their
home, it's their livelihood.

That would be
the easiest route,

but I don't think
they can buy it.

Why not?

Honey, they're behind
on their rent.

I've been floating them
for months now.

I gave them till the end
of the year to pay it back,

but the fact is, I don't think they
can afford to live there anymore.

Way to raise
the stakes, Dad.

Uh, I gotta go.

I'll talk to you soon.
Love you.

Come in.

Oh.

Sorry to interrupt.
I just brought you up another blanket.

To keep you warm.

You know,
because it's cold outside

and inside.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

Well, have a great, um...

really nice, you know,
good dreams...

comfortable kind of sleep.

Yeah.
I hope you have a good,

uh, nice, good dreams

comfortable
kind of sleep, too.

Yeah. Goodnight.

Goodnight, Noah.

- Oh.
- Goodnight.

Oh.

Good morning!
Sun's up. Everybody up.

Up and at 'em.

Hey!

- Mmm. Bacon.
- Stop it!

Morning.

Since when
do you drink coffee?

Since today.
I just felt like it.

Uh-huh.
How many sugars?

Six-ish.

- Stop eating already.
- Okay.

It was quite a storm
last night.

I'm gonna go out
and check the greenhouse,

make sure
everything's secured.

I'll be right back.

Do you need help
with anything, Gran?

Oh, no, thanks, hon.
Why don't you go help your Uncle Noah?

Oh, grab me a handful
of mint, okay?

I'm gonna start on my next
batch of Winters Bliss.

You got it.

And don't be long, okay?
We are eating very shortly.

Uncle Noah, wait up!

Oh, hello, sunshine.

You get up early
around here.

Oh, this is
sleeping in for us.

It's 6:30.

We eat late
on Saturdays.

No kidding.

How did you sleep?

Really well.

Foghorn Leghorn
didn't wake you?

- Hmm?
- He's our rooster.

Never missed a sunrise.
He's our surefire alarm system.

Uh, yes, the bird.
Yeah, he, he woke me.

Well,
you get used to him.

Do you need any help?

Actually, could you keep
an eye on these pancakes?

I'm gonna go out
and get Dakota and Noah,

and then we are
just about ready to eat.

Oh, cooking's
not really my forte.

Oh, you'll be fine. Just flip them
over when they start to bubble.

No, really. I can't cook
to save my life.

You'll be fine.
I have faith in you.

Hmm.

Anyone else?

You had one job.

Well, I've...
...got to get going.

But thank you so much
for letting me stay.

Oh, our pleasure.

Your mother,
bless her soul,

would have done
the same thing for us.

Well, you have
a lovely family.

- Can I help you with your luggage?
- No, thanks. I'm good.

Um, be careful
on the steps out there.

Okay.

Where are my keys?

You okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.

Thank you so much.

Yeah. Thanks. Bye!

My keys!

No, no, no.

Keys, come on.

Aloha. How was Hawaii?

I can't find my keys.

Oh.

Is that funny to you?

It's a little funny.

Well, I need to get to town.
I'm late.

I have a very important errand
I need to run.

Like getting
a new car key?

I'll tell you what, I am, uh,
running into town to grab some supplies.

Why don't you come with?
And when we get back,

- I'll help you find your keys.
- Okay.

Let's, uh, get you out
of your Barbie shoes.

"Let's get you out
of your Barbie shoes."

Just one step at a time.
You got it.

There you go. All right.

Okay.

I have to sell.
I just have to tell him.

He's eventually
gonna find out.

But I should wait till I talk
to the real estate agent.

Yeah, that's good.
Right?

Okay, thanks so much
for your help, Gracie.

Call me back
when you can. Bye.

I think that's good.

- What?
- I think you got it.

What?

Never mind.

Oh.

Hey, uh...

thanks for not
evicting us yet.

I assume
that's why you're here.

- Oh.
- I... I promise I'm good for it.

All right?
I got it covered.

I know
I can figure it out.

Plus, it's Christmas,
right?

The season of miracles.

Yeah.

Yeah.

"Season of miracles."

Wow. You guys take Christmas
really seriously here.

Well, is there
any other way to take it?

In Hawaii.

Hey, Noah.

Oh, hey, Chloe.
How are you doing?

Can't complain. Please thank
your mom for the Winter Bliss.

Daddy and the baby
are so grateful.

What's Winter Bliss?

Well, every Christmas,
my mom makes this

mint-lavender blend to hand
out to her friends in town.

What does it do?

- It helps calm babies down.
- Oh.

I mean,
everybody swears by it.

Does it work
for adults?

No.

Who's this?

I'm Molly.

She's my landlord.
She owns the farm.

You don't look
like a farmer.

I'm Chloe.
Noah and I go way back.

We do.

High-school sweethearts.

It was
a really long time ago.

Aren't you freezing?

No, I am fine.

I'm just gonna go
run an errand.

I will meet you back at
the truck in 30 minutes.

- Okay.
- Nice meeting you.

Mmm.

She's charming.

Be nice.

I am. She seems sweet.

Obviously not
from around here.

And your point?

Didn't think someone like that
would be your type.

I didn't know
I had a type.

And there's the problem.

She's just my landlord.
She's leaving tomorrow.

Of course she is.

All right.
I'll see you, Chloe.

Yeah, bye.

- So, you want to sell?
- Yes.

I'm in a bit
of a rush, though.

I'm flying
out of town tomorrow,

and I'm just here
to start the process,

hire an agent,
get an appraisal.

Well, why don't you
tell me about the property?

Uh, apparently, I own
a mint farm up the road.

The Winters' property?

- Exactly.
- Mmm.

Yeah, they throw a hell of a
holiday party there every year.

I hear it's a hoot.

So, to be honest, they don't
know about this yet,

so I'd really appreciate it if we
could keep it that way for now.

Certainly.

Well, great. Why don't I get
started on the comps for you.

Great.

Do you know of a hotel
I could stay at tonight?

What's wrong? Winters' Bed and
Breakfast not good enough for you?

I don't wanna overstay
my welcome.

You can stay with us.
It's not a problem.

I appreciate
the hospitality.

What time do you wake up
on Sundays?

- Hello.
- Gracie.

I feel terrible, but I promise
I will get the money.

It's not your fault.

One way or another,
we're gonna get this business going.

At least you're in Hawaii.

- Not quite.
- What...

Gracie? Hello?

Gracie, can you hear me?

Gracie? I'm here.
Can you hear me?

I can hear you.

Oh.
Can you hear me now?

Are you hiking a volcano?

I'm in Peppermint Hollow.

Come again?

And I am freezing.

I'm at my mom's
childhood home

in the middle
of Timbuktu, Washington.

Apparently, she left it to me
when she passed away.

And if I can just sell it,
I can get my half

of the investment
money back.

That's amazing. Do that.

Yeah, I'm trying.

It's not so easy.

I... I met with the real estate
agent this morning, and...

Hello? Wait.
Sorry, I'm losing you.

Molly?

Oh, gosh.
She won't stop crying.

I can't hear you. Hello?

Hello?

Hello.

Okay.

Oh, food. Food.

You're hungry.
I'm a great mom.

Oh!

Gra...

There's no place like Hawaii,
there's no place like Hawaii.

There's no place
like Hawaii.

Worth a shot.

One more day.

What?

What?

No, no, no, no.

No, no, no.

No, no!

Oh, my gosh!

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.

My flight's canceled,
and I'm drowning in snow.

But, look what I found.

Are you warm enough?

Do you
want me to start the fire?

Judging by your shivers,
I'm gonna go with a "Yes."

How did you do that?

Oh, Uncle Noah connected the
fireplace to an app on my phone.

He went to MIT,
so he's pretty smart.

Well, let me know when he
figures how to fly a plane

through a blizzard, and then
I'll be impressed.

Got it. Uh... is there
anything else I can do for you?

Could you get me
a private jet to Hawaii?

I don't think my piggybank
has enough change for that.

Good luck.

How about some
peppermint cocoa to warm you up?

Can I get a Mai Tai
with an extra shot of rum?

- Oh, honey.
- I'm sorry.

Fix this.

- How you doin'?
- Never better.

That's the spirit.

Well, since you're stuck here,

you might as well learn about
mint farming.

I have always
wanted to learn about mint farming.

- Really?
- No.

Well, now's the time.

- Come on, let's go.
- Ugh!

Grab a stem.

I mean,
don't you have machines for that?

No. No machine
can beat the satisfaction

you get by doing
something by hand.

Says the MIT grad.

Huh. You know my secret.

I didn't know
it was one.

Why don't you try it?
It's nature's toothbrush.

I'm good.

Oh, are you...

- Are you okay?
- Sorry.

Ugh!

It's not poisonous.

You gotta chew it to get the flavor.
Just... pretend it's kale.

- Huh?
- Hmm.

- Not bad. Mmm-hmm.
- Told you.

Here.

- Why don't you give it a shot?
- No, I'm good.

Right.

Not the type
to get your hands dirty.

Ah, you don't know
what type I am.

Hand them over.

Cut the whole plant, just above
the first or second set of leaves.

Like that.

Oh, well, you don't actually
want me to do that, do you?

Ah, you'll be fine.

That's what your mom said
about the pancakes.

So, I mean, I cut...

I cut above the first leaf
or the second...

I'm not good
with manual labor!

Okay, okay. Here.
You hold the basket

- I'll get the mint.
- Oh, okay.

Mint can be used for
gums, oils, lotions, soaps.

Mint can pretty much
be used for anything.

So, how long
have you been growing mint?

When we were
in elementary school,

my dad gave my brother and me a
small greenhouse and some pots

- And the Winters Mint Company was born.
- Hmm.

Were you
and your brother close?

We were.

He and my sister-in-law
were in an accident.

Passed away shortly
after Dakota was born.

I'm so sorry.

Yeah. Life goes on.

I've been taking care
of Dakota ever since.

And your mom?

Mmm, I take care of her, too.

Uh, no, I mean
she helps out, too, right?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, we all need some help now and then.

Yeah.

Oh, this is a good one here.
Let's get this one here.

When was the last time
you were in Peppermint Hollow?

I think
I was five or six.

Why haven't you been back?

Uh, I don't know.

It was my mom's house, and...

when she passed,
we didn't have any more family here.

So, no reason to come back.
So, we didn't.

MIT, huh?

That's a long way
from Peppermint Hollow.

I went there to study
environmental engineering.

I wanted to see
what else was out there.

Beyond the peppermint capital
of the world?

My plan was to incorporate
the hydroponic procedures,

and, uh, implement
a new reusable water supply.

- And?
- It worked great at first.

So, we decided to invest a bit
more, which would allow us to...

- triple our output.
- Mmm.

But, by the time
the mint was ready to harvest,

our biggest buyer
went out of business.

Bad luck. Bad timing.

So, you spent
more than you had.

And you haven't been able to
sell off the extra mint since.

Exactly.

Don't worry.

You'll get your rent.

You don't need any help,
do you?

- Uh, no. I'm done.
- Perfect.

Gran says it's probably
gonna be a whole nother day

before the snowplows
can clear the pass.

Oh.

Looks like I'm stuck here
a bit longer.

I could really use
a mani-pedi.

But I am guessing that the Winters
Bed and Breakfast doesn't have a spa.

No.

I am behind
on my Christmas shopping.

Uncle Noah
was gonna take me into town.

- Would you wanna join?
- You had me at "shopping."

Great! Let's go!

Ah, nothing like
shopping at Christmas time.

Packed stores, line out
to the parking lot.

Kids excited to meet Santa.

While hungry, tired
and having a meltdown.

Buying cute little
Holiday gifts.

- And all the Christmas music.
- And all the Christmas music.

- Have you ever been married?
- Uh, no.

- You?
- No. But...

seriously, I mean, you're
gorgeous, and you seem mostly nice.

- "Mostly"? Thanks.
- Well, I...

You must have
a boyfriend back home.

- I don't.
- Really?

Someone as gorgeous
and mostly nice as you?

Yeah, how is it possible?

Uh, because, men are only interested
in women who are smart and successful.

And then they break up with you,
'cause you're smart and successful.

Have you tried girls?

On that note,

I'm gonna go
get some adult beverages.

- You girls have fun. Text me when you're done.
- Mmm-hmm.

Finally! I knew that
would get rid of him.

Now I just have to think about
what to get him.

- Hey, what about you?
- What about me?

Any boys in your world?

Uh, no...

Well, there's Parker.

But, I don't even think
he knows I exist.

Oh, I'll bet he does.
Is he going to your party?

- Well, he's invited. But...
- What're you gonna wear?

Oh, I haven't really
thought about it much.

Uh-huh.

Okay, I don't have a dress.

Like, I have dresses,
but I don't have the right dress.

Well, let's find you
the right dress.

- Are you serious?
- When it comes to shopping, I'm always serious.

Come on.

- Hi, Chloe.
- Hey, Dakota.

- Molly.
- Right.

You're still here.
Decided to take up farming?

Uh, not quite. Dakota and I are
just doing a little shopping.

So, what're you still doing
in Peppermint Hollow?

- Noah told me you were leaving.
- Change of plans.

Oh, yeah?
What happened?

My flight got canceled.

Bummer.

For you.

Uh, come on.
Let's go find you that dress.

Don't worry about Chloe.
She dated my Uncle all though high school,

and she still thinks they're gonna get
married. But, it's not gonna happen.

- How do you know?
- Trust me, she's not his type.

What is his type?

Someone like...

Dakota?

What?

Oh, my gosh!
This is perfect!

Try it.

- Dakota, it's stunning.
- You think?

I know. And I know fashion.
Trust me.

There's no way
Parker won't notice you.

And just remember,

it's the heart of the girl wearing
the dress that makes it so beautiful.

Thank you.

- Nice purse.
- Thanks.

- Is that...
- Gucci.

Yeah. Uh,
we're ready to check out.

Cash or credit?

Uh, oh... uh, this is way more
expensive than I realized.

- I don't have enough.
- Hey. My treat.

I can't let you do that.

You totally can.
Her purse costs more than my car.

But I'll stay out of it.

- I wanna buy it for you.
- Are you sure?

Yes.

You are the best.

Super sad about
your flight being canceled.

I just know it's the holidays, and I'm
sure you wanna be with your family.

Can you just swipe my card?

Let me try again.

It's still declined.

Uh, here. Try this one.

Declined.

If you ever wanna
sell that purse,

I could cut you a fetch deal.

No. Not for sale.

Hashtag sad.

Wait, I just remembered. Um...

I forgot I have a dress at home that
Gran has been begging me to wear.

She would throw a fit
if I bought something else.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah, definitely.

And I figured out what I
wanna get Gran and Uncle Noah.

- So, let's go.
- Okay.

You go on ahead.
I'm gonna make a phone call.

- I'll be right there.
- Okay.

What can I get for these?

Valentino?

The dress?

No, but the coat's on sale.

Daddy? Uh, what's going on?

My credit cards aren't
working. SOS!

Hi, honey.
Look, I can't talk right now.

Wait, Dad.
What am I supposed to do?

Don't panic.

All right? I'm taking care of things.
I'm still working on it.

Gee, okay.
Just tell me the truth.

Are we broke?

Slightly.

- "Slightly"?
- Look, honey. I can't talk right now.

- All right?
- Wait. Daddy.

I'm not gonna be
able to get to Hawaii.

- Next year for sure.
- Hello?

I love you.

There you are.
Thought you might like a cookie.

It's still warm.
Oh, watch out!

Whoa!

I'm okay.

It was either you
or the cookies.

It's mint chocolate chip.

These kids have terrible aim.

Hey, Patrick.
Uh, checking in on the appraisal.

I'd love to get
the property listed, ASAP.

Please give me a call.

- Oh, hi.
- I brought you some hot cocoa.

Thank you.

May I talk to you
for a minute?

Sure.
I actually wanna talk, too.

Um...

- This is tricky...
- I know.

I know.
We are late on our rent.

And up until
three months ago,

we had never been late
with a payment.

Noah has always seen to that.

Got it. Of course.
Uh, and I believe you.

We really appreciate your...
your trust and understanding.

And we're gonna make this
right, no matter what it takes.

I promise.

That's what you wanted to
talk to me about, right?

Actually, what I wanted to talk
to you about was...

You really are the spitting
image of your mother.

I'm sorry.
What were you gonna say?

I've had four of these today
and I know

it's not gonna be the last.

Oh! Okay.
Uh, well, I'll...

Let me know if there is something
that you wanna talk to me about.

I will do that.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Oh, what's right here?

Looks like you really put your
engineering degree to good use.

I was an environmental
engineer, not electrical.

Could have fooled me.

My brother
started this tradition.

He built a single archway, and when I
got home from college, I added to it.

We bring it out
every Christmas.

As you can see,
I went a little overboard.

Well, I don't hate it.

So, does it
snow much in Hawaii?

Oh, yeah. All the time.

No, um...

When my Mom passed,
my Dad and I started going every year.

And instead of a Christmas
tree in the living room,

we decorate a giant one
in the hotel lobby.

Luaus on the beach.

Christmas carols
on the ukulele.

We celebrate with
our coworkers and guests.

- Sounds amazing.
- Yeah.

Yeah, it's actually
really special.

And my Dad always goes out of
his way to make sure that it is.

- He sounds like a great guy.
- Mmm-hmmm.

The important thing is that you two
get to spend Christmas together.

Right.

Christmas.

That's all
that really matters.

Yeah.

Here. Let me
show you something.

Looking pretty good
over there.

Thanks. I learned
from the best.

Oh, and I sold a few more
lip balms this week,

so, pretty soon, I'll be able to
pitch in and help with the rent.

You don't have to worry about that.
We'll be fine.

Where did Noah and Molly go?

I think
they went for a walk.

I think he likes her.

I think you're right.

The mint.

You know,
it's growing on me.

I can feel it in my bones.

There's nothing like it.

I feel like
I've been in here before.

Ah, it used to be
the old horse barn.

Yeah, I remember that
my mom used to take me riding.

Her horse was new.

Chocolate Chip!

Yeah. We, uh, got it a few years
back when we were cleaning.

I figured it deserved
a place on the wall.

What is this place now?

Well, it's where
we dry and store our mint.

And because
you're a brilliant engineer

and you've tripled your
output, you've got a lot of it.

Yeah. But...
not enough buyers.

Hence, the tardiness
on the rent.

Well, what if
I could help you?

Uh...

You're the mint expert, but...

I am pretty good at convincing
people to buy things.

So modest.

- Have you ever sold mint?
- That's not the point.

Let me ask you something.

After you sell the mint,
what happens to it?

Well, we sell it wholesale,

then the people we sell it to
turn it into other products.

Like what your mom does
with the Winter Bliss?

Nah, that's different.

It's not a business. It's just
something she does to help people.

Well, why can't it be both?

What do you have in mind?

Well,

perhaps...

we could
work together closely

to...

Huh... I like
where this is going.

...to...

that...

that thing
that I do for a living.

- Marketing?
- Yeah.

Uh-huh.

Marketing.

Yeah, go on.

Well, I've done my research.

You have?

And I am

much more aware of the

ins and outs

of the mint process.

You are, huh?

And the next step
is permission.

When is the
part about the

relationships coming in?

Um...

maybe I should think that one
through a bit more.

So...

you think, we should...

Probably get back
to the house.

Right.

Yeah, the house.

Right.

After you.

Okay.

Okay.

You think we should?

I think "you" should.

- Okay, so, you're gonna ask her.
- Really?

- Ask her now.
- Hi.

- Hey.
- Ask her.

Ask me what?

I was...
We were wondering,

since you're, you know,
still kinda stuck here,

if you wanted to come with us
to pick out a Christmas Tree.

I've never picked out
a Christmas Tree before.

- You've never picked out a Christmas Tree?
- Nope.

- Are you Jewish?
- No.

Uh, no. They were just
always picked out for me.

And all about
three stories high

and centered in the lobby
of my Dad's hotels.

You're picking out the tree.

- I'm picking out the tree?
- Mmm-hmm.

She's picking out the tree.

I am picking out the tree.

Look, she is
really taking to her.

Yeah, I noticed that, too.

She's really
starting to adjust.

I'm talking about Dakota.

Yeah. Yeah... No, me too.
Dakota. Yeah.

You should
ask for her number.

- I have Dakota's number.
- Oh, that's funny.

Mom, she lives in California.
All right?

She is just here
to collect the rent.

- That's all.
- Really?

Then why is she out Christmas tree
shopping with you and your family,

instead of plotting
her escape?

I'm just asking.

Uh, this one?

- Hmm... no.
- Okay.

Or this one?

Hmm... no

Get it.
This one's a good one.

- This one.
- Perfect.

Oh!

- Great! Huh?
- Yeah, good!

- Oh, do you wanna come with me to go buy an ornament?
- Sure.

- Do you need some money, honey?
- Nope.

That's okay, Gran.
I got money from my lip balm business.

- You have a lip balm business?
- Yeah.

- Tell me more.
- How much is it?

It's super fun and my friends
can't get enough.

Try it.

This is quality stuff.

And very minty.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Oh, you know, you should
put your name on that.

And like a mint leaf
on top, maybe?

Who's the marketing expert now?

How about this?

All right. Which ornament gets to
make it home with us this year?

- What do you think?
- Oh, it's a classic.

- I like it.
- I approve.

- Let's get home and decorate the Christmas tree, huh?
- Wait, guys. Selfie.

I got this.

Say peppermint.

- Peppermint.
- Ah.

- All right.
- Oh, look at that. That's cute.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

What's this?

Oh. I thought
you were doing it.

I thought
you were doing it.

Okay, we're doing this.

Okay.

So good.

Okay. Um...

Uncle Noah.

I think it's time.

- Is it time?
- Oh, it's definitely time.

Time for what?

Take all the time you need.

Dakota! You wanna do

Um...

How about Molly this year.

Aw!

- Are you sure?
- Mmm-hmm.

Okay.

♪ And a partridge

All right,
Christmas reunion, guys!

That is our tree!

I don't know what to do.

Let's tell her.

- Not yet.
- Okay. Then I'm going to get a job.

- Mom.
- We are living off of our savings.

We can't do that
for much longer.

And I agree.

And you working would help.

But it's not gonna save us.

Even if I figured out
how to sell the mint,

- it's not gonna happen any time soon.
- So?

I need to tell her the truth.

We can't afford to live here
any more.

I have something
I wanna run by you.

I have something
I wanna run by you.

- You first.
- You first.

I'll leave you to it.

- Oh, okay.
- Excuse me.

Um...

We can't afford to live here.

I'm having trouble coming up
with the rent.

And I have
a possible solution.

Okay. What did you have
in mind?

I think there is a way to
generate cash for your mint.

You said you sell your mint
wholesale, right?

Yeah.

So other people can make a bunch
of products using your mint

and then turn around and sell
it and make a huge profit?

Yes, that's normally
how business works.

We make a profit
off the wholesale.

But you are not making
a profit right now.

I think you should cut out
the middleman.

- How?
- Rather than sell it off to other people

that can make a profit,
why don't you do it yourself?

There is literally an endless
amount of things that use mint.

You said it yourself.

"You can pretty
much use mint for anything."

Come on.
I don't sound like that.

Well, you... You kind of do.

You can make
and sell your mint here.

If your mom's Winter Bliss

and Dakota's lip balm
are any indication,

you can have
a real business with this.

You think?

This isn't just any mint.

It's the Winters' mint.

Made in Peppermint Hollow.
The freshest mint.

Locally grown
by a hardworking family.

Marketing.

Yeah, I do this for a living.

Let me help you.

Where are the sprinkles?

Here we go. Okay.

Dakota, honey.

Why don't you put those
cookies on the pan, all right?

Mmm-hmm... sure.

- Dakota!
- What?

Come on. I thought we were
cutting down on the screen time.

These cookies
aren't gonna bake themselves.

- Let's go. Let's go.
- Sorry.

Are you all right?

Hey.

Molly's got
an interesting idea.

We need startup money and got
to work out some of the details,

but take a look.

It will require
all-hands-on-deck,

but I think you can do it.

Wait. I don't... I don't know
what I'm looking at.

Marketing.

Marketing what?

Just a second.

Gracie, hi.

- Our stuff?
- Yes.

My dad is pressuring me
to sell the property,

and if I do, I get the money.

Perfect. You need money.

But the Winters are left
high and dry.

That's business, Molls.

I came up with this
business idea for them,

and if it works,
it could be really profitable.

They have these incredible
products using their mint.

What products?

Kim has this
Winter Bliss stuff

that everybody in town
swears by.

Dakota has a lip balm
that maybe better than Chanel.

And they're peppermint cocoa and mint
chocolate syrup on their pancakes

is the best I've ever had.

You're eating carbs?

You are totally missing
the point.

Ooh, a Peppermint Hollow mocha
with an extra shot of espresso.

Hey, focus, focus.
The point is

they don't know
how to market their products.

But even if you teach them,
don't you still have to sell the place?

Well, unless... wait.

Did you just order a Peppermint
Hollow mocha? Where are you?

Surprise.
I'm in Peppermint Hollow.

Turns out it's literally

on the way to Chris'
parents' house.

- The airports are clear?
- Since yesterday.

Oh.

I thought I'd come by
and say hi.

Is that okay?

Yes, of course.

So what's the address?

Uh, texting you now.

1111 Peppermint place?

Who makes up these names?

I know. It's ridiculous.

- I'll see you soon.
- Okay, bye.

Bye.

- Thanks.
- You going to the Winters'?

Yes.

It's okay.

Small town.

Well, when you get there,
ask Kim about her Winter Bliss.

I just heard about that stuff.

Oh, it will calm her
right down.

It saved me when my kids
were her age.

Okay. Well, thanks.

And tell them all
Bee says hi.

Sure thing.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you.

- Mint brownie pie. On the house.
- Oh.

Thank you.

Mmm.

I love this place.

No, I didn't say
it was a bad idea.

I... I just don't understand
how it works logistically.

Uh, so my friend Gracie
is in town

and wants to stop by to say hi
if that is all right.

Oh, sure. Of course.

I'll get it.

Glad you said it was
all right.

That was fast...

Hi.

What are you doing here?

I'm sorry. I left you
a couple of messages.

I know you're anxious
to sell,

so I thought
I'd bring by the comps...

Yeah. Uh, it's...
Now's not really a good time.

So if you just wanna leave those with
me, I'll get back to you.

Okay.

Yeah. Actually, um...

I'm... I'm not really
sure if...

I understand.

This is a very special place.

It's a big decision.

Take your time.

Thanks.

I will be in touch.

Bye.

Mmm. These are good.

Wow.

Where's your friend?

Uh... um, nobody was there.

Must have been the wind.

I'll get it.

Hi.

She won't stop crying,
and I'm about to lose it.

I don't know what to do
and I'm going crazy.

- You must be Gracie?
- Yes. Hi.

Hi, I'm Kim.

Kim of Winter Bliss.

What is Winter Bliss?

May I?

Oh, it's an
all-natural homegrown blend

of fresh mint oil, lavender,

and it's all organic.

That's right and, usually,

if you put it on the pacifier,
a couple of drops,

the baby will...

That's amazing.

And are you sure
there's no alcohol?

Oh, I'm positive.

And you make it yourself?

She does.

And do you make it for adults?

No. I already asked.

Oh, she's so cute.

Well,
when she's not wailing.

Oh, she's precious.

Oh.

- You must be Noah.
- It's nice to meet you.

Okay. Excuse us.

Guys, guys.

- We have a problem.
- No kidding.

That Noah is a tall
hunk of handsome.

And you were right,

that Winter Bliss stuff
is a miracle worker.

What mom wouldn't want it?

It's not ours.

It could be if you don't sell
the property

and we go into business
with the Winters.

She's broke
and she needs money, too.

- Oh.
- Look at this.

But even if I wanted to go
into business with the Winters,

I don't have the startup money
and neither do they and...

Why would she suggest
going into business together?

Where does she think
the money is coming from?

I can't do this.

I can't sell this place.

I'm not going to sell
this place.

You were gonna sell
this place?

No. I'm not selling it.

Then why do you have comps?

Because I did ask Patrick
for those but...

Were you even planning on
telling us?

Can you please...
You have to let me explain.

Why didn't you just tell us
the truth?

I don't know.

Uh... I didn't know. I...

I don't know.
I changed my mind.

It's complicated.

I'm sorry.

- Okay?
- No.

No, it's not okay.

What's that smell?

- The cookies.
- The cookies.

Noah, please. You...

You have to understand. Okay?

I... I had a plan,

and I... I was gonna help you
get the money

and... for marketing your products.
It was gonna be huge,

and we could even go
into business together.

Business together?

But you're broke.

Oh, right. We weren't supposed
to know that either, were we?

I understand now.

It's about the money.

It was always about the money.
Got it.

Please, just listen to me.

No, I'm done.

Go ahead. Sell it.

We don't need you
or your help.

Enjoy Hawaii.

Should have just been
honest with him from the beginning.

I could see
how you got distracted.

Adorable kid.

- Grandma with Christmas cookies.
- Yeah.

Now I realize why my mom
never sold this place.

It's not just a business.
It's a home.

A home with farmer
Noah McDreamy.

Gracie, I misled them.

And even though I changed my
mind about selling this place,

I should have been honest
with them.

Now it's too late.

It's never too late.

You saw.

I tried.

I completely messed up, and now
they're never gonna trust me again.

Don't worry.

You'll spend Christmas
with us

and we'll sort
all of this out.

- Okay?
- Okay.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

- Love you.
- Love you. Bye, pink lady.

I don't understand.

Maybe she came here to sell,
but then she changed her mind.

Maybe.

I think she was torn.

And then she was broke.

We let her into our family.

We let her into our home.

Well, technically,
it's her home.

You never even gave her
a chance to explain.

I saw the comps.

All right, all that talk about
her helping us find money

and going into business
together.

Even if she was ultimately
coming here to sell this place,

which by the way,

is completely within
her rights to do,

I think she was also

trying to come up
with other options.

I think she really wanted
to help us.

But if she was just
honest with us.

Oh, and maybe if you had
just been honest with her

from the beginning, instead of

pretending like you had it
all under control.

But I didn't.

And she's gone,
and she's not coming back.

So what are we going to do?

We're gonna get
ready for a party.

One last time.

We're gonna celebrate
Christmas like we always do.

And we're gonna be
grateful for what we have.

Come on, Uncle Noah.

You two are great together.

Now, what are we going to do
about getting Molly back?

I'd like to take you
up on that offer.

Is this enough for that dress?

It's enough
for anything you want.

We never get designer
anything in here.

This is incredible.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

I can give you store credit
for the balance.

I'll just take the dress.

You sure?

Yes. I'm sure.

Hey, I just want to apologize.

I know I wasn't exactly
the friendliest.

It's okay. I understand.

Noah's a great guy,

and there's obviously something
special between the two of you.

I hate to admit
I was a little jealous,

but I'm glad
you're still here.

Well,
I appreciate that.

I'm actually heading
out of town.

- Before the party?
- Mmm-hmm.

Yeah. Um, change of plans.

Things didn't quite, you know,
work out the way I hoped.

I'm really sorry to hear that.

Can you make sure that this
and the dress

gets to Dakota for me, please?

Happy to do that.

Merry Christmas, Chloe.

Merry Christmas.

Okay.

Two in each.

Did you try calling her again?

She's not picking up.

Well, try again.

I knew she'd come back!

Oh.

- Hey, Bee.
- Hi.

A little birdie named Dakota
told me

you could use
some extra desserts

for the party.

- This is gonna be a candy-coated Christmas.
- Oh!

Bee,

this is too much.

No, it's not.

You are a lifesaver.

Thank you.

It's my pleasure.

Oh, and I'm bringing a tray of
my chocolate brownie bites, too.

- Aw!
- Ooh!

We'll see you all tomorrow.
Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas to you, too,

and thank you so much.

Look at this. Aww.

That was so sweet of her,
wasn't it?

You okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

Really.

Oh, maybe she brought us something else.

I'll get it.

Forget something?

Hi.

Hi.

You wanna come in?

No. Uh, I only have a minute.

Uh, I was going to have this
dropped off for Dakota,

but I wanted to do it myself.

- Oh.
- In person.

That's why you're here.
I'll go get her.

Well, no, wait. I... I actually
wanted to say something to you, too.

I do, too.

I owe you an apology.

I wasn't honest about
our financial situation.

I wasn't either.

I was planning
on selling the property

and using the money
for my business with Gracie.

But, then I met
you ridiculously nice people

and I realized that
I couldn't go through with it.

When I found out
that I was broke,

I didn't think I had a choice.

Why didn't you just tell us?

Because I was embarrassed

and torn.

And spending time with you and
your family and making pancakes...

- Burning pancakes.
- ...baking cookies...

- Burning cookies.
- ...and shopping for a Christmas tree.

- I got nothing there. It is the perfect tree.
- Yeah, it's the perfect tree.

See?

I didn't want to take
that away from me,

and I couldn't take
all of this away from you.

So, that's why you came up
with the business plan.

I mean, I've got
the marketing skills,

and you've got
unique products.

And you were right.

We need money,
and neither of us have it.

And... and not to mention you probably
never want to work with me now.

In the last week,

my life has been turned
upside down, and...

...somehow, being with you almost made
me forget that anything was wrong.

You want to talk
about miracles?

That is a miracle.

Um...

anyway, uh, I have to go.

Molly.

Molly, wait.

I can't believe
you just did that.

It got your attention.

- This isn't funny.
- It's a little funny.

What if we can find
the seed money?

- How?
- I don't know.

But we should at least try,
don't you think?

Stay for Christmas.

I'll reach out
to all the people I know

and you reach out
to all the people you know.

- What if we can't find the money?
- But what if we can?

There's always risk
in business, you know that.

Even if
we can't work together,

can't we at least be together?

Just to be clear,

you...

want to be with me?

I mean...

kinda.

Come on, Molly.

Dakota says
we're great together.

She's a smart kid.

Under one condition.

Anything.

Close your eyes.

- You can't see anything?
- I can't see anything.

Hmm.

Now, that,

that is funny.

Uh-huh. All right.

- I spoke to Gracie and Patrick.
- I talked to Bee.

- You first.
- You first.

Patrick said I could easily take out a
home equity line against the property,

which means we could have
upfront cash.

And Gracie said she's all-in
to partner with us.

- Bee's willing to invest, too.
- What?

- This is so cool.
- Ooh! This is cool.

But now we really need to get
ready for the party. Okay?

That's okay.
I'll clean up this part.

Go ahead.

Hi, Daddy!
How did the meeting go?

- I'm still working on it.
- I am sure it will be okay.

Yes, it will, it will. Um...

How's the selling going?

Actually, I'm not selling.

Uh, I'm taking out a home
equity line against the house,

and with Gracie's investment
plus a few others',

we've decided to go into
business with the Winters.

I know it's a risk.

But, I really believe
it'll pay off.

Who are you?
What have you done with my daughter?

Molly, I'm proud of you.

Your mother would be
proud of you, too.

Thanks, Daddy.

I really wish you were here.

Me too. Next year.

Next year for sure.

I love you.

I love you, baby.

Okay.

Gracie!
Did you meet Chloe?

- Oh, yeah.
- Oh, good, good. Have fun. I'll see you guys later.

Excuse me, Bee.

I finally got the chance to try
your peppermint brownie bites,

and I loved them.

So, you do like mint.

I do. I really do.

- Oh, Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

So, would you like
to try my brownie bites?

I thought you'd never ask.

You'll love it.

- Amazing.
- Good, right?

Hi!

- Hey!
- There she is.

- Oh, hello, sunshine!
- Oh, look at them.

Is that Parker?

- Mmm-hmm,
- Yeah, that's Parker.

Not sure I'm ready for that.

Well, she is.

Ooh, how sweet.

- Young love.
- Yeah.

Come on.

- Oh.
- My God!

Oh!

Talk about young love.

Here you go.

All right, Dakota first.

Drumroll.

Huh! How'd I do?

- Just kidding! No, I love it. I love it.
- Come on!

Okay.
Let's see what this is.

- Love it!
- That's exactly what you wanted.

Look at this!

Oh, my goodness!
Look at this! What is this?

Look at that. Oh, Honey!

"World's Greatest Grandma"!

Oh, my goodness!
That's so sweet.

Okay.

Oh, my God!

"Some things are
'mint' to be"!

You guys.

Must be Santa.

Um, I'll get this.

Oh! Look what
the reindeer dragged in.

Hey, Kim!
It's good to see you.

Thanks for inviting me.

- Well, of course.
- Daddy?

- Surprise!
- Oh, here...

I can't believe you're here!

Yeah, well, it's Christmas, baby.
Of course, I'm here.

Guess what? The board agreed
to restructure our debt.

We may have to sell a few hotels,
But, we're back in business.

Ah, that's amazing.

Oh, wonderful news!
Come on, let's go eat.

Okay.

I love this house.

Oh, Daddy!
Merry Christmas!

- Wow!
- Those look so good.

Molly and pancakes?
I can't believe it.

Those are perfect.

Slide those right over.

Anybody want
non-burnt pancakes?

Oh! It's a Christmas miracle!

Oh! Molly and Fred,
we are so glad

that you are here with us.

Thank you.
It's been a long time

since we've had
a proper Christmas at home.

Thank you for including me and for
taking such good care of my Molly.

Aw!

Our pleasure.

Truly, this has been
a life-changing holiday,

and I have all of you
to thank.

I am grateful and honored to be
spending Christmas with you all.

- Here's to many more.
- Oh!

Merry Christmas!

Hawaii's got nothing on this.

I am so excited to be a
part of this holiday movie.

Let's go!

This is going to be
a candy-coated Christmas.

This is the first time I have
ever been on a real movie set,

so it's really fun
to be a part of it.

Just take in all the fun.

Action!

Hi! What can I get for you?

When I walked in to the bakery
for the first time,

I just was completely
enchanted.

We're open
and ready for customers.

I think it needed to feel like
it reflected me/Bee, somewhat.

And it completely exceeded
my expectations.

- Everything looks perfect!
- So beautiful!

You're making me look so good.

Thank you!

I have to say, there's a lot
of great food in this movie.

If these are supposed to be
mine, I should sample it.

I contributed some of my
own recipes to Bee's Bakery.

My peppermint brownie bites
make an appearance,

my peppermint meringues,
mint chocolate cookies.

The holidays just lend themselves
so well to peppermint anything.

That it's taking place in a
town called Peppermint Hollow

is just perfect.

You could film a Christmas
movie here if you wanted to.

Oh, absolutely.
What a great idea!

I was a fish out of water
on this movie set.

But after the first few scenes
that I shot,

I was so at ease, and I am like,
"I don't ever want to leave."

Cut!

I was half-communicating
with Ree Ree there.

- Oh, guys!
- You're just showing off now.

Do go on.

I might want to be
an actor the rest of my life.

But only in Christmas movies.

You'll love it.

- Amazing.
- I mean, who doesn't love a Christmas movie?

Merry Christmas.
