Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,066 --> 00:00:03,066
This program is rated G
2
00:00:04,233 --> 00:00:07,300
and is suitable for
general audiences.
3
00:00:35,967 --> 00:00:37,033
Oh yes. Great.
4
00:00:37,166 --> 00:00:39,000
Those will go in the
dining room. Thank you.
5
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,800
Hm.
6
00:00:52,734 --> 00:00:54,967
At Upstage we need to
accentuate the selling points
7
00:00:55,100 --> 00:00:57,700
of the home to entice the
widest array of buyers.
8
00:00:57,834 --> 00:01:00,734
We're the last stage you'll
have before selling your home.
9
00:01:00,867 --> 00:01:02,767
This is Grace Ryan,
my partner in design
10
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:04,800
and the other half of Upstaged.
11
00:01:04,934 --> 00:01:06,467
Nice to meet you.
12
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,433
I hope you're okay we moved
the Paola Buffa side table.
13
00:01:09,567 --> 00:01:11,609
It was hidden in that guest
room and we really thought it
14
00:01:11,633 --> 00:01:14,500
would bring the dining
room that wow-factor.
15
00:01:14,633 --> 00:01:16,333
The buffa what?
16
00:01:16,467 --> 00:01:20,000
The walnut side table
handmade by one of the premier
17
00:01:20,133 --> 00:01:22,767
European furniture makers
of the 20th century.
18
00:01:26,333 --> 00:01:27,509
The brown table with
the ridged drawers
19
00:01:27,533 --> 00:01:28,900
and the brass handles.
20
00:01:29,033 --> 00:01:31,633
Oh that. I mostly keep my
workout clothes on it anyway.
21
00:01:31,767 --> 00:01:34,633
Oh, you keep your workout
clothes on a Paola Buffa.
22
00:01:34,767 --> 00:01:36,076
Well the treadmills
in there, ha,
23
00:01:36,100 --> 00:01:38,300
never liked the look
of it, to be honest.
24
00:01:38,433 --> 00:01:40,266
Can you excuse us
for just a moment?
25
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,242
Take a look around and let
me know how you like the rest
26
00:01:42,266 --> 00:01:43,266
of the house.
27
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,233
Putting the Buffa on the
dining room was a bold choice.
28
00:01:49,367 --> 00:01:53,266
Now that is see it, it's
a little loud, isn't it?
29
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,133
I thought it gave the
room a pop of style.
30
00:01:56,266 --> 00:01:58,467
Perhaps it's more
like an explosion.
31
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,467
Right.
32
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:00,743
We want people
talking about the room,
33
00:02:00,767 --> 00:02:01,834
not the table, right?
34
00:02:01,967 --> 00:02:03,576
Yes. I will get them
over to switch it out.
35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,734
And while they're at it,
36
00:02:04,867 --> 00:02:06,767
let's ask them to switch
the artwork in the den.
37
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:07,900
Oh, really?
38
00:02:08,033 --> 00:02:10,567
I was really digging
those old French adverts
39
00:02:10,700 --> 00:02:11,867
that fit in there.
40
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,920
You don't think it looks
a little too nineties?
41
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,467
I almost forgot, the
producers called.
42
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,300
Really? What,
what did they say?
43
00:02:20,433 --> 00:02:22,142
They want to sit with
us after the holidays,
44
00:02:22,166 --> 00:02:25,000
talking through our vision
for a home staging show.
45
00:02:25,133 --> 00:02:26,433
That's amazing.
46
00:02:26,567 --> 00:02:28,467
Said we make a dynamic duo.
47
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,467
This could be huge for
us, for our company.
48
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,066
Our own TV show,
Grace. Think about it.
49
00:02:35,300 --> 00:02:36,734
Listen, I'll finish up here.
50
00:02:36,867 --> 00:02:38,776
I'm sure your family's
eager to have you at home.
51
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:39,800
Are you sure?
52
00:02:39,867 --> 00:02:42,467
Definitely. Go, I got this.
53
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,734
Actually, before you go,
54
00:02:46,867 --> 00:02:49,500
think we can move that
back to where it was?
55
00:02:49,633 --> 00:02:51,700
Yes. Of course. I'm on it.
56
00:03:07,233 --> 00:03:08,667
Looks like someone
needs some help.
57
00:03:15,967 --> 00:03:18,467
Oh.
58
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,300
Yep, I think you're stuck.
59
00:03:22,433 --> 00:03:23,500
Tony Scotto.
60
00:03:23,633 --> 00:03:25,400
Grace Ryan.
61
00:03:25,533 --> 00:03:27,533
Wow. It has been-
62
00:03:27,667 --> 00:03:28,834
- It's been a while.
- Yeah.
63
00:03:28,967 --> 00:03:31,200
Yeah. What happened here?
64
00:03:31,333 --> 00:03:33,700
Oh, this is deer darted
out and I did what I could
65
00:03:33,834 --> 00:03:35,600
to avoid it, but here we are.
66
00:03:35,734 --> 00:03:37,976
Well they probably thought
they saw their cousin back here
67
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,333
and got excited.
68
00:03:39,467 --> 00:03:41,300
Good one.
69
00:03:41,433 --> 00:03:42,433
Very good.
70
00:03:42,533 --> 00:03:44,000
Couldn't help myself.
71
00:03:44,133 --> 00:03:46,200
Actually, do you have
some rubber mats in there?
72
00:03:46,333 --> 00:03:48,033
Yeah. Why?
73
00:03:48,166 --> 00:03:49,900
- Hand them over?
I'll show you a trick.
74
00:03:52,734 --> 00:03:55,500
Aha. Perfect.
75
00:03:55,633 --> 00:03:56,734
Ready?
76
00:03:56,867 --> 00:03:58,600
Hop in. Get ready
to give it some gas.
77
00:03:58,734 --> 00:04:00,166
- Okay.
- There we go.
78
00:04:00,300 --> 00:04:02,140
That should give you some
traction. Try it now.
79
00:04:11,367 --> 00:04:12,767
- All right.
- Hey.
80
00:04:12,900 --> 00:04:14,800
That's a pretty great trick.
81
00:04:14,934 --> 00:04:16,600
Thanks for coming to my rescue.
82
00:04:16,734 --> 00:04:17,976
Eh. It's the Girl Scout in me.
83
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,000
I can't help myself.
Now it's all yours.
84
00:04:20,133 --> 00:04:22,333
You can unstick
yourself anytime.
85
00:04:22,467 --> 00:04:24,233
Any advice if I get a flat?
86
00:04:24,367 --> 00:04:26,133
Yeah. Call AAA.
87
00:04:28,567 --> 00:04:30,433
Oh.
88
00:04:30,567 --> 00:04:32,266
Um, I'm sorry. I
should take this.
89
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,767
No, that's okay.
90
00:04:33,900 --> 00:04:35,820
I should get going too,
but thanks for your help.
91
00:04:35,934 --> 00:04:39,200
And it was a nice
to see you again.
92
00:04:39,333 --> 00:04:40,333
Nice to see you.
93
00:04:41,367 --> 00:04:43,200
- Happy holidays.
- You too.
94
00:04:43,333 --> 00:04:46,033
- Oh, don't forget your map.
- Oh, right.
95
00:04:46,166 --> 00:04:47,266
Hey Sarah. What's up?
96
00:04:48,834 --> 00:04:50,200
Oh, okay.
97
00:04:50,333 --> 00:04:52,700
So you're not feeling the look
of the living room anymore.
98
00:04:54,033 --> 00:04:57,233
Got it. Yeah. Okay. I'll
be there in a minute.
99
00:05:03,734 --> 00:05:07,266
Pop. Come on. Still
with the icicles?
100
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,700
Hey, it's a Christmas classic.
101
00:05:09,834 --> 00:05:11,200
They take time.
102
00:05:11,333 --> 00:05:13,300
You got to give the
people what they want.
103
00:05:13,433 --> 00:05:14,734
You know what the people want?
104
00:05:14,867 --> 00:05:16,810
The people want their Christmas
decorations by Christmas,
105
00:05:16,834 --> 00:05:17,834
not Valentine's day.
106
00:05:17,867 --> 00:05:19,233
That's what the people want.
107
00:05:19,367 --> 00:05:22,166
Your father will be up all
night if it's not perfect.
108
00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:24,767
And if he's up all
night, I'm up all night.
109
00:05:24,900 --> 00:05:27,800
Just let him do what he
needs to do for my sake.
110
00:05:27,934 --> 00:05:29,300
Where do you want these, Dad?
111
00:05:29,433 --> 00:05:32,000
Oh, well the lights on the
trees are going to pull focus.
112
00:05:32,133 --> 00:05:35,400
So we need to balance out
the lawn, frame the house.
113
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,333
Put them right there.
114
00:05:38,467 --> 00:05:39,800
- Here?
- Yes. Perfect.
115
00:05:41,567 --> 00:05:43,233
- Thank you.
- You got it.
116
00:05:45,867 --> 00:05:47,200
Hey,
117
00:05:47,333 --> 00:05:49,242
whatever happened to that
marketing job you applied for?
118
00:05:49,266 --> 00:05:51,700
Same thing that
always happens.
119
00:05:51,834 --> 00:05:52,994
It was a pleasure to meet me,
120
00:05:53,066 --> 00:05:55,200
but they decided to
go with somebody else.
121
00:05:55,333 --> 00:05:56,567
Something will workout.
122
00:05:59,633 --> 00:06:00,667
Oh. Oh.
123
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:01,910
Oh! Are you
okay? Are you okay?
124
00:06:01,934 --> 00:06:02,934
Ah. Yeah. Yeah.
125
00:06:02,967 --> 00:06:04,142
- I'm good. I'm good.
- Okay. Just watch it.
126
00:06:04,166 --> 00:06:06,066
Slow, slow.
127
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,600
You know,
128
00:06:07,734 --> 00:06:09,894
we should start charging by
the day instead of the job.
129
00:06:09,967 --> 00:06:12,900
How many houses have
we done this year, six?
130
00:06:13,033 --> 00:06:15,000
Yep. And we did
eight last year.
131
00:06:15,133 --> 00:06:18,066
We used to do 20
houses a year at least.
132
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,240
His numbers have really
taken a nose-dive ever since
133
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:22,433
he stopped competing in
the Bright Nights contest.
134
00:06:22,567 --> 00:06:26,100
Talk to him. See if he's
ready to compete again.
135
00:06:26,233 --> 00:06:28,600
The deadline to
submit is tonight.
136
00:06:28,734 --> 00:06:30,700
All we have to do is
drop the application off
137
00:06:30,834 --> 00:06:32,200
at the Christmas Fest.
138
00:06:32,333 --> 00:06:34,242
- Why do I have to do it?
Couldn't we do it together?
139
00:06:34,266 --> 00:06:36,667
No. You're the oldest.
140
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,133
I gotta pick Dante up at hockey.
141
00:06:39,266 --> 00:06:41,200
- You got this.
- Mm.
142
00:06:41,333 --> 00:06:43,000
I'm heading out.
143
00:06:43,133 --> 00:06:44,266
Oh, I want to go with you.
144
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:45,867
I got a few things to pick up.
145
00:06:47,033 --> 00:06:48,667
All right. Well we're
far enough along.
146
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,166
You two can finish by yourself.
147
00:06:50,300 --> 00:06:51,367
Sure we can.
148
00:06:51,500 --> 00:06:52,934
We'll be back in an hour.
149
00:06:53,066 --> 00:06:54,433
- Bye.
- Bye.
150
00:06:55,967 --> 00:06:57,500
Well, guess we'd
better get a move on
151
00:06:57,633 --> 00:07:01,433
so we can finish before
the family gets back.
152
00:07:08,266 --> 00:07:09,400
Thank you. Thank you.
153
00:07:09,533 --> 00:07:11,333
Means a lot.
154
00:07:11,467 --> 00:07:16,000
From my family to
yours, Merry Christmas.
155
00:07:20,934 --> 00:07:22,433
Looks amazing, Pop.
156
00:07:22,567 --> 00:07:25,200
I should have brought
two more reindeer.
157
00:07:25,333 --> 00:07:28,233
- Let it go, Dad.
Just let it go.
158
00:07:28,367 --> 00:07:29,834
Okay.
159
00:07:32,333 --> 00:07:34,333
I sanded the whole thing down,
160
00:07:34,467 --> 00:07:36,767
patched up all the dings and
nicks and stained it back
161
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:38,333
to its original color.
162
00:07:38,467 --> 00:07:41,133
My wife used to nurse
her son in this chair.
163
00:07:41,266 --> 00:07:44,000
Now he just had his first and
we wanted to pass it down.
164
00:07:44,133 --> 00:07:46,567
Well, it should hold up for
a couple more generations.
165
00:07:46,700 --> 00:07:48,233
It's beautiful, Bill.
166
00:07:48,367 --> 00:07:50,266
Was glad to see your
lights still on.
167
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,300
Heard rumor you might be
closing the stores down.
168
00:07:53,433 --> 00:07:55,033
That's a long...
169
00:07:55,166 --> 00:07:56,500
No plans to yet anyway.
170
00:07:56,633 --> 00:07:59,166
I see you're still
in the decorating business.
171
00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:01,166
Noticed your yard signs around.
172
00:08:01,300 --> 00:08:02,667
Yeah, that's right.
173
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,609
Geared up for the Bright
Nights contest again, too.
174
00:08:04,633 --> 00:08:07,400
You know, going up against all
those professional decorators
175
00:08:07,533 --> 00:08:10,300
in town, mm, keeps on your toes.
176
00:08:10,433 --> 00:08:11,667
Good luck.
177
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,166
Well, thank you very much.
178
00:08:13,300 --> 00:08:14,743
Now, Larry upfront will
ring you out and help you
179
00:08:14,767 --> 00:08:16,533
to the car with it, okay?
180
00:08:16,667 --> 00:08:17,533
There you go.
181
00:08:17,667 --> 00:08:19,133
Hi, Dad.
182
00:08:19,266 --> 00:08:20,633
Hey, kiddo!
183
00:08:20,767 --> 00:08:21,867
Aww.
184
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,200
So nice to have
you home this year.
185
00:08:24,333 --> 00:08:25,543
You know, you've
been gone so long
186
00:08:25,567 --> 00:08:28,133
and your nephew Evan's
got his license now.
187
00:08:28,266 --> 00:08:29,810
Okay, first of
all, you need to let it go
188
00:08:29,834 --> 00:08:32,900
that I went on holiday vacation
some place warm for once.
189
00:08:33,033 --> 00:08:34,834
You should try it some time.
190
00:08:34,967 --> 00:08:37,200
And second, I know how to count.
191
00:08:37,333 --> 00:08:38,934
Evan is only nine.
192
00:08:39,066 --> 00:08:40,367
Ten.
193
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:42,734
Oh right. November
9th, of course.
194
00:08:42,867 --> 00:08:44,233
Come on.
195
00:08:44,367 --> 00:08:45,800
Your mom and Evan
are in the back.
196
00:08:45,934 --> 00:08:48,300
Oh, I saw a Paolo
Buffa side table today.
197
00:08:48,433 --> 00:08:49,667
It was a thing of beauty.
198
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,333
Really? Tell me all about it.
199
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,600
Hey! There's my girl.
200
00:08:54,734 --> 00:08:56,000
Aunt Grace!
201
00:08:56,133 --> 00:08:59,600
- Evan! What's new, kid?
Grandpa says you're driving now.
202
00:08:59,734 --> 00:09:01,367
- No, not yet.
- Not yet.
203
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:03,900
With your sister and her
husband working so much overtime
204
00:09:04,033 --> 00:09:05,333
right now,
205
00:09:05,467 --> 00:09:07,142
Evan has offered to help
with Bright Nights this year.
206
00:09:07,166 --> 00:09:10,834
Good man. Speaking
of which, here you go.
207
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,600
Yeah.
208
00:09:13,734 --> 00:09:14,834
What do we got here?
209
00:09:14,967 --> 00:09:17,200
Photos of the house
we decorated this year.
210
00:09:17,333 --> 00:09:18,800
What do you think?
211
00:09:18,934 --> 00:09:20,934
Just narrowing
down my submission.
212
00:09:21,066 --> 00:09:22,934
Right.
213
00:09:23,066 --> 00:09:24,866
Some of these sort of
remind me of the designs
214
00:09:24,934 --> 00:09:26,400
from a few years ago,
215
00:09:26,533 --> 00:09:28,934
except you subbed the
snowflakes for the candy canes.
216
00:09:29,066 --> 00:09:30,767
What?
217
00:09:30,900 --> 00:09:32,400
- We're getting stale.
- No.
218
00:09:32,533 --> 00:09:34,333
Yep, like January gingerbread.
219
00:09:34,467 --> 00:09:36,667
Now I wouldn't
say that, it just...
220
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,533
It never hurts to push
the creative edges, right?
221
00:09:39,667 --> 00:09:41,333
Well, what we may
lack in variety,
222
00:09:41,467 --> 00:09:43,667
we make up for in volume.
223
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,266
I mean, how many houses
did we do this season, 30?
224
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,467
30, right?
225
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,667
Something like that.
226
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,133
Oh.
227
00:09:50,266 --> 00:09:52,667
Oh, here you go. These
should be your submissions.
228
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,600
- I wanna see.
- Okay.
229
00:09:54,734 --> 00:09:56,700
- Ooh.
- What do you think?
230
00:09:56,834 --> 00:09:58,266
Yeah?
231
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,967
Okay. Let's get this
application into the committee.
232
00:10:02,100 --> 00:10:04,200
You know, we really
need your spark, dear.
233
00:10:04,333 --> 00:10:06,767
It's what all of our
designs are missing.
234
00:10:06,900 --> 00:10:08,033
Oh.
235
00:10:08,166 --> 00:10:10,300
I mean, you could
be our saving grace.
236
00:10:10,433 --> 00:10:11,433
Oh.
237
00:10:11,467 --> 00:10:12,467
Oh, Bill.
238
00:10:12,533 --> 00:10:14,633
- What?
- Talk about stale.
239
00:10:16,100 --> 00:10:17,333
Come on, kiddo.
240
00:10:19,333 --> 00:10:21,266
I wanted to talk to
you about Good Tidings.
241
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:22,767
What about it?
242
00:10:22,900 --> 00:10:24,676
Well, I know how you like
to take a lot of time off
243
00:10:24,700 --> 00:10:27,500
from contracting during the
holidays to focus on decorating,
244
00:10:27,633 --> 00:10:29,900
but with the number of clients
being what they'd been the
245
00:10:30,033 --> 00:10:31,100
last couple of years,
246
00:10:31,233 --> 00:10:32,242
you're losing a lot
more than you're making.
247
00:10:32,266 --> 00:10:33,867
- No, stop. Stop here.
- What?
248
00:10:34,934 --> 00:10:37,567
What is this?
249
00:10:37,700 --> 00:10:39,300
Is that the Inglid's house?
250
00:10:39,433 --> 00:10:40,834
It is.
251
00:10:40,967 --> 00:10:42,567
They've been a
customer of yours for...
252
00:10:42,667 --> 00:10:44,800
10 years.
253
00:10:44,934 --> 00:10:48,233
Guess they decided to go a
different direction this year.
254
00:10:48,367 --> 00:10:49,834
I guess they did.
255
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,667
What the heck is GlowScapes?
256
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,767
I think we're looking at it.
257
00:10:55,900 --> 00:10:57,400
Popular, by the looks of it.
258
00:10:58,633 --> 00:11:00,100
Looks like it's
easy to set up too.
259
00:11:00,233 --> 00:11:02,567
I bet you could do a few of
those in one day, no problem.
260
00:11:02,700 --> 00:11:04,433
Anybody can string
up a bunch of lights
261
00:11:04,567 --> 00:11:07,033
and enter a computer code.
262
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:08,367
Where's the soul in that?
263
00:11:09,467 --> 00:11:10,467
The heart?
264
00:11:10,567 --> 00:11:11,800
Do you see the people's faces
265
00:11:11,934 --> 00:11:14,100
when I flip the light switch on,
266
00:11:14,233 --> 00:11:16,600
that spark of joy in their eyes?
267
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:22,166
All because of
something we've created.
268
00:11:22,300 --> 00:11:23,166
I mean, it's-
269
00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:24,300
- Magical.
- It is.
270
00:11:24,433 --> 00:11:25,300
I know.
271
00:11:25,433 --> 00:11:26,934
And I love how it lights you up.
272
00:11:28,500 --> 00:11:30,700
But without the bump
from Bright Nights,
273
00:11:30,834 --> 00:11:33,567
Good Tidings is becoming more
of a hobby than a business.
274
00:11:33,700 --> 00:11:35,033
It's not always
about the money.
275
00:11:35,166 --> 00:11:37,700
I know, but why don't
you show the people
276
00:11:37,834 --> 00:11:39,700
of this town what
you're capable of?
277
00:11:41,133 --> 00:11:44,800
There's a reason you won the
first five Bright Nights contests.
278
00:11:44,934 --> 00:11:46,000
I don't think so.
279
00:11:46,133 --> 00:11:48,834
Dad, come on.
280
00:11:48,967 --> 00:11:51,533
I haven't competed
in eight years.
281
00:11:51,667 --> 00:11:54,100
And you remember what
happened last time?
282
00:11:54,233 --> 00:11:55,367
Yeah, sure.
283
00:11:55,500 --> 00:11:57,166
You ran out of time.
You got disqualified.
284
00:11:59,567 --> 00:12:04,600
But so what, that's not
going to happen this time.
285
00:12:04,734 --> 00:12:06,934
I'm going to be there and
Mom's going to be there
286
00:12:07,066 --> 00:12:08,306
and Maria is going to be there.
287
00:12:08,433 --> 00:12:09,800
Really?
288
00:12:09,934 --> 00:12:12,233
Yes. Maria said she'd help
fill out the application.
289
00:12:12,367 --> 00:12:15,233
We can get it to the committee
before registration closes.
290
00:12:16,467 --> 00:12:19,100
You're the best in town, Pop.
291
00:12:19,233 --> 00:12:21,166
I mean, it says it right
there on your signs.
292
00:12:27,734 --> 00:12:29,000
Okay.
293
00:12:29,133 --> 00:12:30,800
- Yeah?
- Let's do it.
294
00:12:30,934 --> 00:12:32,734
- Okay.
- Okay.
295
00:12:55,033 --> 00:12:57,834
So we staged the
home of this producer
296
00:12:57,967 --> 00:13:00,834
and they got a kick out of us,
297
00:13:00,967 --> 00:13:04,600
thought that we made a charming
team, their words, not mine.
298
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,834
Anyway, they said that
we'd make a fun host
299
00:13:08,967 --> 00:13:10,667
for a home staging show.
300
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,200
- Oh.
- I know.
301
00:13:12,333 --> 00:13:14,209
Anyway, we're going to talk to
them in the new year about it
302
00:13:14,233 --> 00:13:15,567
and we'll see what happens.
303
00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:17,233
That is incredible, Grace.
304
00:13:17,367 --> 00:13:19,133
Yeah. Yeah. It is just...
305
00:13:20,734 --> 00:13:22,100
What?
306
00:13:22,233 --> 00:13:23,943
Sarah and I have been
on different pages lately,
307
00:13:23,967 --> 00:13:26,500
just completely out of sync.
308
00:13:26,633 --> 00:13:29,433
Being friends and
business partners
309
00:13:29,567 --> 00:13:31,967
takes a delicate touch.
310
00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:33,400
Ask your father.
311
00:13:33,533 --> 00:13:35,443
He still avoids every
street with a house designed
312
00:13:35,467 --> 00:13:37,200
by the Scottos.
313
00:13:37,333 --> 00:13:39,409
Yeah, well you'd think 20
years would be enough time
314
00:13:39,433 --> 00:13:40,800
for bygones to be bygones.
315
00:13:40,934 --> 00:13:43,033
Ha ha. Not a chance.
316
00:13:44,633 --> 00:13:45,976
Did you ask Santa
for what you wanted?
317
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,400
A Secrets of the Great
Magicians magic set.
318
00:13:49,533 --> 00:13:52,867
Oh, so you're into magic
these days. That's pretty cool.
319
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,066
Lean down, Aunt Grace.
320
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,400
Okay.
321
00:13:56,533 --> 00:13:57,734
What've we got here?
322
00:13:57,867 --> 00:14:01,033
Okay. Oh boy. Starting out good.
323
00:14:05,100 --> 00:14:08,900
Whoa! That is
incredible. Nicely done.
324
00:14:09,033 --> 00:14:11,300
Okay, now can you do that
with a chicken sandwich
325
00:14:11,433 --> 00:14:12,433
because I am starving.
326
00:14:12,567 --> 00:14:13,567
I can't, Aunt Grace.
327
00:14:13,633 --> 00:14:15,300
You let me down, kid.
328
00:14:15,433 --> 00:14:16,500
All right.
329
00:14:16,633 --> 00:14:18,109
Well, I'm going to
grab something to eat,
330
00:14:18,133 --> 00:14:20,093
but I'll meet you guys at
the Bright Nights booth?
331
00:14:20,166 --> 00:14:22,400
Yep. Okay, come
on you. Good work.
332
00:14:22,533 --> 00:14:25,033
How did you get Dad
to change his mind
333
00:14:25,166 --> 00:14:26,266
about Bright Nights?
334
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,767
How do you think? I
appealed to his ego.
335
00:14:28,900 --> 00:14:31,300
He saw a bunch of people lining
up to see a house decorated
336
00:14:31,433 --> 00:14:33,266
by that new company, GlowScapes.
337
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,734
I think that really
lit a fire under him.
338
00:14:35,867 --> 00:14:36,900
Nono can bring it.
339
00:14:37,033 --> 00:14:38,400
Yes.
340
00:14:38,533 --> 00:14:40,076
Let's hope that attention
to detail that makes him such
341
00:14:40,100 --> 00:14:42,076
a great contractor doesn't
freeze him up this year.
342
00:14:42,100 --> 00:14:44,367
If we get into
Bright Night finals,
343
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:46,767
I'm telling you we can win it.
344
00:14:46,900 --> 00:14:49,767
If, ifs and buts
were candy and nuts,
345
00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:52,033
what a merry
Christmas it would be.
346
00:14:57,066 --> 00:14:58,900
Two pizzelles, please.
347
00:14:59,033 --> 00:15:01,233
What he said. Thank you.
348
00:15:04,066 --> 00:15:07,433
And a half dozen
assorted, please.
349
00:15:07,567 --> 00:15:10,734
That's a lot, Uncle
Tony. Not good for you.
350
00:15:10,867 --> 00:15:12,934
Well, they're not for me.
351
00:15:13,066 --> 00:15:15,033
Thank you.
352
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,600
Excuse me.
353
00:15:19,734 --> 00:15:22,033
I know it's usually the Girl
Scouts giving the cookies,
354
00:15:22,166 --> 00:15:23,676
but I wanted to thank
you for the other day.
355
00:15:23,700 --> 00:15:25,900
It wasn't anything really.
356
00:15:27,066 --> 00:15:28,867
If you were your
dad and I was my dad,
357
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,633
you would have just kept
driving, so it's not nothing.
358
00:15:31,767 --> 00:15:35,300
Well, fortunately, we're
not our fathers.
359
00:15:35,433 --> 00:15:38,166
And who is this young
man? Is this your son?
360
00:15:38,300 --> 00:15:40,767
No, no, no, no. This
is my nephew, Dante.
361
00:15:40,900 --> 00:15:42,220
What are you
talking about, Dad?
362
00:15:42,333 --> 00:15:43,800
Oh.
363
00:15:43,934 --> 00:15:45,166
Quit playing, Dante.
364
00:15:45,300 --> 00:15:47,400
He's my sister Maria's kid.
365
00:15:47,533 --> 00:15:49,033
Who's Maria, Dad?
366
00:15:49,166 --> 00:15:50,934
All right. Cut it out.
367
00:15:51,066 --> 00:15:52,333
He thinks he's funny.
368
00:15:52,467 --> 00:15:53,600
Well I'm entertained.
369
00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:56,200
You want these?
370
00:15:56,333 --> 00:15:58,433
Yes, Uncle Tony.
371
00:15:59,667 --> 00:16:00,967
Get.
372
00:16:01,100 --> 00:16:02,500
I think I see Maria over there.
373
00:16:04,533 --> 00:16:05,900
Are you here with your parents?
374
00:16:06,033 --> 00:16:08,533
Yeah. And my nephew.
375
00:16:08,667 --> 00:16:10,333
So where do you call home?
376
00:16:10,467 --> 00:16:11,834
Richmond, actually.
377
00:16:13,066 --> 00:16:19,300
I just came back about
a year ago from Boston.
378
00:16:19,433 --> 00:16:22,433
Grace will find out about
the stores eventually, dear.
379
00:16:22,567 --> 00:16:25,100
I just don't want to
worry her unnecessarily.
380
00:16:25,233 --> 00:16:27,333
I got us into this
mess, I can get us out.
381
00:16:27,467 --> 00:16:28,533
Mm hm.
382
00:16:30,533 --> 00:16:33,367
Hello.
383
00:16:33,500 --> 00:16:35,433
Your Wade...
384
00:16:35,567 --> 00:16:37,834
of GlowScapes by Wade?
385
00:16:37,967 --> 00:16:39,367
Wade Edwards,
pleased to meet you.
386
00:16:39,433 --> 00:16:42,734
I'm Wendy Ryerson
head of the committee.
387
00:16:42,867 --> 00:16:45,266
My husband and I can't
pass by one of your houses
388
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:46,700
without stopping.
389
00:16:46,834 --> 00:16:49,367
It's like 4th of
July in December.
390
00:16:50,734 --> 00:16:53,934
I'm so glad it brings you joy.
391
00:16:54,066 --> 00:16:56,109
- We'll be reviewing the
applications and the committee will
392
00:16:56,133 --> 00:16:58,834
reach out to the four
prelim qualifiers sometime
393
00:16:58,967 --> 00:17:00,767
in a day or so.
394
00:17:00,900 --> 00:17:04,066
Be sure to keep your ringer on.
395
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,400
Hi!
396
00:17:07,433 --> 00:17:09,100
- Hey.
- Hi.
397
00:17:09,233 --> 00:17:11,400
Can't wait to see what
you Ryans have for us
398
00:17:11,533 --> 00:17:13,467
under your Santa caps this year.
399
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,200
It's going to be pretty
stiff competition
400
00:17:15,333 --> 00:17:18,367
with GlowScapes in the mix.
401
00:17:18,500 --> 00:17:21,166
You're going to show
our work as always Wendy.
402
00:17:21,300 --> 00:17:23,100
I don't know if you've
heard, but this year,
403
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,700
in addition to the municipal
contract to decorate every
404
00:17:25,834 --> 00:17:29,100
public building at Ashland
Falls next holiday season,
405
00:17:29,233 --> 00:17:32,266
Cardinal Group Energy is
sponsoring a cash prize.
406
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:33,433
How much?
407
00:17:33,567 --> 00:17:35,367
$50,000!
408
00:17:35,500 --> 00:17:36,967
- Whoa!
- You're kidding me?
409
00:17:37,100 --> 00:17:40,367
Not a bad stocking
stuffer. Right?
410
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:41,367
Well, good luck!
411
00:17:41,500 --> 00:17:43,300
Well, thank you.
412
00:17:43,433 --> 00:17:46,700
You're going to need all
the luck you can get, Bill,
413
00:17:46,834 --> 00:17:49,800
because those tired
designs you're used to,
414
00:17:49,934 --> 00:17:51,500
aren't going to
cut it this year.
415
00:17:51,633 --> 00:17:54,066
Well I didn't see many of
your lawn signs out there
416
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:55,700
this season, Frank.
417
00:17:55,834 --> 00:17:58,300
Seems to me that
it's your designs
418
00:17:58,433 --> 00:18:00,700
that people are no longer
interested in these days.
419
00:18:00,834 --> 00:18:02,333
Okay, Bill. That's enough.
420
00:18:02,467 --> 00:18:03,834
Don't start, Frank.
421
00:18:03,967 --> 00:18:05,400
There's nothing
to worry about.
422
00:18:05,533 --> 00:18:08,166
Probably won't even
finish his design,
423
00:18:08,300 --> 00:18:09,900
if he's chosen to compete.
424
00:18:10,033 --> 00:18:12,333
Excuse me, I don't
remember you winning anything
425
00:18:12,467 --> 00:18:13,667
these last couple of years.
426
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,633
Remind me when the
last time you won was.
427
00:18:15,767 --> 00:18:16,633
Can you remember?
428
00:18:16,767 --> 00:18:18,100
Gentlemen, please!
429
00:18:18,233 --> 00:18:20,076
Well, I don't need an award
to feel good about myself,
430
00:18:20,100 --> 00:18:21,433
like some people I know.
431
00:18:21,567 --> 00:18:23,767
Oh, oh, you want to settle
this old fashioned way?
432
00:18:23,900 --> 00:18:24,940
Sure, I would like that.
433
00:18:24,967 --> 00:18:26,142
Huh, you want that? Come on.
434
00:18:26,166 --> 00:18:27,376
No. You heard what
he said to me.
435
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,400
- Dad?
- Pop?
436
00:18:32,266 --> 00:18:33,133
Come on! Cut it out!
437
00:18:33,266 --> 00:18:34,633
What's going on?
What's going on?
438
00:18:34,767 --> 00:18:37,600
Oh, just your father and
Bill Ryan going at it again.
439
00:18:37,734 --> 00:18:39,133
If you two don't knock it off,
440
00:18:39,266 --> 00:18:42,033
the committee will disqualify
both of you from the contest.
441
00:18:43,233 --> 00:18:45,166
But this is
Christmas, gentlemen.
442
00:18:45,300 --> 00:18:47,333
This is the season of forgiving.
443
00:18:47,467 --> 00:18:49,900
Bill, come on, come on.
444
00:18:54,500 --> 00:18:55,967
What if Dante sees you?
445
00:18:56,100 --> 00:18:59,000
Do you want him to see his
Nono making a fool of himself
446
00:18:59,133 --> 00:19:01,000
in front of everyone
in the town?
447
00:19:14,533 --> 00:19:17,233
No-no, who was that man
you were arguing with?
448
00:19:17,367 --> 00:19:18,233
Nobody.
449
00:19:18,367 --> 00:19:19,834
Mm. They used to be friends.
450
00:19:19,967 --> 00:19:21,767
Good friends,
once upon a time.
451
00:19:21,900 --> 00:19:25,033
Started a holiday decorating
company in college together.
452
00:19:25,166 --> 00:19:27,367
Yeah and kept it going
after they graduated.
453
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:29,467
They called it Making
Spirits Bright,
454
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,066
was a nice little business
for them during the holidays.
455
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,166
We even used to spend
Christmases together.
456
00:19:34,300 --> 00:19:35,934
What happened then?
457
00:19:36,066 --> 00:19:37,166
Well...
458
00:19:37,300 --> 00:19:39,967
He kept pestering me
to decorate faster
459
00:19:40,100 --> 00:19:41,900
so we could get more clients.
460
00:19:43,367 --> 00:19:47,233
And all I really cared about
was doing the quality of work.
461
00:19:47,367 --> 00:19:49,000
He cared about the money.
462
00:19:49,133 --> 00:19:51,700
So we got into an
argument and he kicked me
463
00:19:51,834 --> 00:19:52,834
out of the company.
464
00:19:52,934 --> 00:19:55,133
Yes. I broke up the company.
465
00:19:55,266 --> 00:19:57,667
Because Frank told
me that I was greedy,
466
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,133
that I put quantity
over quality.
467
00:20:01,266 --> 00:20:03,186
Just because I wanted to
make a few extra dollars
468
00:20:03,233 --> 00:20:04,567
doing something we both loved,
469
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:07,266
doesn't make my reasons for
doing it any less noble.
470
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,500
They were a great partnership.
471
00:20:09,633 --> 00:20:11,700
We brought out the
best of each other...
472
00:20:13,233 --> 00:20:14,467
for a time.
473
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,009
You know, he would
draw up the designs
474
00:20:16,033 --> 00:20:18,800
and I'd put a plan
together and execute them.
475
00:20:18,934 --> 00:20:21,200
But when he insulted
me, that was it.
476
00:20:21,333 --> 00:20:22,633
That was the end of our business
477
00:20:22,767 --> 00:20:24,800
and the end of our friendship.
478
00:20:24,934 --> 00:20:27,633
And that's when grandpa
opened up the furniture store
479
00:20:27,767 --> 00:20:30,333
and turned Making Spirits
Bright into Deck the Halls.
480
00:20:30,467 --> 00:20:32,467
Can't you just
apologize and make up?
481
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,033
You two were so close.
482
00:20:34,166 --> 00:20:36,767
Apologize to him
after what he said?
483
00:20:36,900 --> 00:20:38,400
He should be apologizing to me.
484
00:20:38,533 --> 00:20:40,667
It's a shame what
happened between you two
485
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,200
is all I'm saying.
486
00:20:42,333 --> 00:20:43,876
No, the only shame here is
that Frank was never admit
487
00:20:43,900 --> 00:20:46,300
he was wrong.
Now come on.
488
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,834
Dad, I am going to
take Dante to school.
489
00:20:54,967 --> 00:20:56,567
- Give him a kiss for me.
- I will.
490
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:02,700
- Have a good day.
- You too.
491
00:21:02,834 --> 00:21:04,266
Hey Dad.
492
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,800
I'm not going to
be able to help out
493
00:21:05,834 --> 00:21:08,233
with Good Tidings tonight
'cause I got a shift at the bar.
494
00:21:08,367 --> 00:21:09,667
Well that's all right.
495
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,500
We don't have any
customers anyway.
496
00:21:13,900 --> 00:21:17,533
Listen, I know it's
not your dream job,
497
00:21:17,667 --> 00:21:19,710
but if you ever want to learn
the contracting business
498
00:21:19,734 --> 00:21:22,867
from your old man, my
door is always open.
499
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,000
I will think about it.
500
00:21:28,133 --> 00:21:29,367
Thanks Pop..
501
00:21:37,033 --> 00:21:39,033
Remember making this?
502
00:21:39,166 --> 00:21:40,367
No way.
503
00:21:41,567 --> 00:21:44,533
You made it at
the Ryan's house.
504
00:21:44,667 --> 00:21:47,867
Such good memories
of those times.
505
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,667
You saw Arlene Ryan's
grandson, right?
506
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:50,667
Yeah.
507
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,734
- He's the same age as Dante.
- Really?
508
00:21:53,967 --> 00:21:56,533
It's a shame they
don't know each other.
509
00:21:56,667 --> 00:21:59,800
Oh, remember who made this one?
510
00:21:59,934 --> 00:22:01,033
Maria?
511
00:22:01,166 --> 00:22:02,200
Grace.
512
00:22:03,667 --> 00:22:05,242
That'll be nice to have one
from the others on our trees.
513
00:22:05,266 --> 00:22:08,233
They have an ornament that Maria
made, found it in this box.
514
00:22:08,367 --> 00:22:09,967
It's been mislabeled.
515
00:22:11,433 --> 00:22:14,100
I think I will sneak this
around the back of the tree,
516
00:22:14,233 --> 00:22:16,033
so your father
doesn't make a stink.
517
00:22:16,166 --> 00:22:17,900
Good idea.
518
00:22:18,033 --> 00:22:19,300
Que bella, huh?
519
00:22:19,433 --> 00:22:20,433
Yes. Nice.
520
00:22:20,533 --> 00:22:21,800
I meant Grace.
521
00:22:21,934 --> 00:22:22,967
Mom.
522
00:22:23,100 --> 00:22:25,200
Oh, she's turned
into a beautiful woman.
523
00:22:25,333 --> 00:22:27,734
- Ma.
- Okay. Okay. Okay.
524
00:22:27,867 --> 00:22:29,700
- I'll stop.
- All right. I gotta go.
525
00:22:29,834 --> 00:22:31,800
I'll see you later.
I love you, okay?
526
00:22:31,934 --> 00:22:33,200
- Ciao, Mom.
- Ciao.
527
00:22:39,133 --> 00:22:40,867
Your father works fast.
528
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,200
I know. He's a machine.
529
00:22:42,333 --> 00:22:43,333
Okay.
530
00:22:43,467 --> 00:22:45,500
Red or green?
531
00:22:45,633 --> 00:22:46,834
They're both nice.
532
00:22:46,967 --> 00:22:48,800
What color will be
good in the windows?
533
00:22:48,934 --> 00:22:51,200
Either. They're
just wreaths, honey.
534
00:22:51,333 --> 00:22:52,967
There's no wrong choice.
535
00:22:53,100 --> 00:22:55,066
Been having trouble
parsing good taste from bad
536
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,867
these days.
537
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,133
You guys gabbing or working?
538
00:23:00,266 --> 00:23:02,400
Remind me how much
you're paying us again.
539
00:23:02,533 --> 00:23:04,266
You want to be paid? Huh.
540
00:23:05,633 --> 00:23:06,934
The nerve.
541
00:23:07,066 --> 00:23:08,986
My love and affection
should be more than enough.
542
00:23:19,133 --> 00:23:20,300
Good crowd tonight.
543
00:23:20,433 --> 00:23:21,876
Yeah, nothing gets
people out to the bar
544
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:23,834
like extended time
with their families.
545
00:23:25,433 --> 00:23:27,333
Ya know, there might
even be some single women
546
00:23:27,467 --> 00:23:29,867
out here tonight that's
looking to meet a nice guy.
547
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,033
Keep your eyes peeled.
548
00:23:31,166 --> 00:23:33,133
Sure, sure.
549
00:23:33,266 --> 00:23:35,467
Hey, what about Lisa?
550
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,133
I heard her say you
weren't unattractive.
551
00:23:38,266 --> 00:23:40,186
Nothing says interested
like a double negative.
552
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:45,834
This seat taken?
553
00:23:45,967 --> 00:23:48,333
Well, it's not, not taken.
554
00:23:49,367 --> 00:23:50,734
So someone is sitting here?
555
00:23:50,867 --> 00:23:52,800
No, it's all yours, Grace.
556
00:23:52,934 --> 00:23:54,533
Oh, you two know each other?
557
00:23:54,667 --> 00:23:57,767
Yeah, childhood
friends and what now...
558
00:23:57,900 --> 00:24:00,567
decades old family feud.
559
00:24:00,700 --> 00:24:03,500
Well, in that case,
drinks on the house.
560
00:24:03,633 --> 00:24:05,033
Keep the peace between you two.
561
00:24:05,166 --> 00:24:06,900
Manhattan up. Thanks.
562
00:24:07,934 --> 00:24:10,266
So what brings you in tonight?
563
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,800
Oh, I had to get
out of the house.
564
00:24:11,834 --> 00:24:14,133
I mean, it's pacing
a hole in the floor
565
00:24:14,266 --> 00:24:15,633
waiting to hear
about Bright Night.
566
00:24:15,767 --> 00:24:18,333
Yeah, mine's probably wearing
out the carpet right now
567
00:24:18,467 --> 00:24:21,233
as we speak.
568
00:24:21,367 --> 00:24:22,734
Thank you.
569
00:24:22,867 --> 00:24:23,867
Oh.
570
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,166
Mm.
571
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:29,166
Well that's not, not delicious.
572
00:24:29,300 --> 00:24:31,333
See, that's how you do it.
573
00:24:31,467 --> 00:24:34,033
- Whatever. You take your 10.
I'll let you two catch up.
574
00:24:34,166 --> 00:24:36,233
And you let me
know anything else.
575
00:24:40,367 --> 00:24:42,834
Been working here long?
576
00:24:42,967 --> 00:24:44,776
No, he just throws me
shifts every once in a while,
577
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,400
when it's really busy.
578
00:24:46,533 --> 00:24:49,033
Truth be told anything
more than a vodka soda
579
00:24:49,166 --> 00:24:51,433
and I am way out of my depth.
580
00:24:51,567 --> 00:24:53,167
Well, I'm glad
he's making my drink then.
581
00:24:53,233 --> 00:24:54,433
Yeah.
582
00:24:54,567 --> 00:24:56,133
Seems like a good friend.
583
00:24:56,266 --> 00:24:58,533
Yes. Yeah, he's a good guy.
584
00:24:58,667 --> 00:25:00,934
We played hockey together
at Bishop O'Connell.
585
00:25:01,066 --> 00:25:04,633
And you got a hockey
scholarship to that fancy school
586
00:25:04,767 --> 00:25:06,367
in Arlington, right?
587
00:25:06,500 --> 00:25:09,166
Yeah, probably why we
never ran into each other.
588
00:25:09,300 --> 00:25:11,433
Are you keeping tabs on me?
589
00:25:11,567 --> 00:25:13,233
One hears things.
590
00:25:13,367 --> 00:25:14,233
Okay.
591
00:25:14,367 --> 00:25:15,934
Well you heard right.
592
00:25:16,066 --> 00:25:19,300
After Arlington, I played
hockey at Boston University,
593
00:25:20,767 --> 00:25:23,166
but I blew out my
knee sophomore year
594
00:25:23,300 --> 00:25:26,367
and that was kind of the
end of my hockey career.
595
00:25:26,500 --> 00:25:28,600
- That must've been hard.
- Yeah, it was.
596
00:25:28,734 --> 00:25:30,934
But it was also kind of
a blessing in disguise
597
00:25:31,066 --> 00:25:35,033
because it made me focus on
school, for like the first time.
598
00:25:35,166 --> 00:25:36,233
I got my MBA.
599
00:25:36,367 --> 00:25:38,066
And what brought
you back home?
600
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,033
I was working for
this marketing company.
601
00:25:41,166 --> 00:25:44,100
I took a big swing
on this campaign,
602
00:25:44,233 --> 00:25:47,633
missed completely,
landed flat on my face,
603
00:25:47,767 --> 00:25:49,667
got canned and then I
moved back here last year
604
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,934
with my tail between my legs.
605
00:25:52,066 --> 00:25:54,133
Well, there's something
to be said about going
606
00:25:54,266 --> 00:25:55,333
with your instincts,
607
00:25:55,467 --> 00:25:57,233
you know, just putting
it all out there.
608
00:25:57,367 --> 00:25:58,367
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
609
00:25:58,500 --> 00:25:59,500
Don't.
610
00:26:02,300 --> 00:26:04,633
So what about you? What
have you been up to?
611
00:26:04,767 --> 00:26:06,400
My college roommate
and I started
612
00:26:06,533 --> 00:26:08,800
a home staging business.
613
00:26:08,934 --> 00:26:11,600
"At Upstaged, we're the
last stage you will need
614
00:26:11,734 --> 00:26:15,400
before selling your
home."
615
00:26:15,533 --> 00:26:16,400
Catchy.
616
00:26:16,533 --> 00:26:18,066
Did you like that?
617
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,567
It was actually Sarah,
my business partner,
618
00:26:20,700 --> 00:26:21,767
who came up with it.
619
00:26:21,900 --> 00:26:24,934
She's the show-woman,
charmed for days.
620
00:26:25,066 --> 00:26:26,367
And what, what's your role?
621
00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:29,166
Are you the creative
genius behind the curtain?
622
00:26:29,300 --> 00:26:30,633
Oh, boy.
623
00:26:30,767 --> 00:26:35,233
Truth be told, I'm feeling
about as confident these days
624
00:26:35,367 --> 00:26:38,367
as you making a slow-gin fizz.
625
00:26:38,500 --> 00:26:39,780
I don't even
know what that is.
626
00:26:39,834 --> 00:26:41,034
You don't know what that is?
627
00:26:41,100 --> 00:26:42,509
No. Does it mean you
make it really slowly?
628
00:26:42,533 --> 00:26:45,033
Hey you two, a table
just opened up in the back.
629
00:26:45,166 --> 00:26:46,667
It's a little quieter.
630
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,266
Don't you need
me to work though?
631
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,600
Well, I haven't had to
remake any drinks tonight,
632
00:26:50,734 --> 00:26:52,900
so the two of you chatting
is actually saving me money.
633
00:26:53,033 --> 00:26:54,934
Wow.
634
00:26:55,066 --> 00:26:56,066
Thanks.
635
00:27:02,734 --> 00:27:04,934
You like that?
636
00:27:05,066 --> 00:27:07,533
That's my mom.
637
00:27:07,667 --> 00:27:09,667
We officially made it
into Bright Nights.
638
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,000
Congratulations.
639
00:27:16,367 --> 00:27:18,433
So did we.
640
00:27:18,567 --> 00:27:22,333
Well, guess this feud isn't
going away anytime soon,
641
00:27:22,467 --> 00:27:23,533
is it?
642
00:27:23,667 --> 00:27:25,600
I guess not.
643
00:27:25,734 --> 00:27:27,000
Game on.
644
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,333
Congratulations to
each of our four teams,
645
00:27:38,467 --> 00:27:41,500
Deck the Halls, Good
Tidings, GlowScapes,
646
00:27:41,633 --> 00:27:45,200
and our last year's
winner, Mistletoe Design.
647
00:27:45,333 --> 00:27:47,133
Each of you will be
randomly assigned
648
00:27:47,266 --> 00:27:49,266
one of these lovely
homes around us.
649
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,900
And you'll have three days
to transform your deck house
650
00:27:53,033 --> 00:27:56,367
as thoroughly as your
imagination allows.
651
00:27:56,500 --> 00:27:59,467
And any house that is
not completed by 6:00 PM
652
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,600
on the 21st will be disqualified
from the competition.
653
00:28:03,734 --> 00:28:07,166
Though I've been assured that
won't be an issue this year.
654
00:28:07,300 --> 00:28:09,967
Our three person committee
will judge each deck house
655
00:28:10,100 --> 00:28:13,133
on creativity,
technical achievement,
656
00:28:13,266 --> 00:28:15,100
and most importantly,
657
00:28:15,233 --> 00:28:19,066
the ooh and the ah factor.
658
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,934
Who will then select two
finalists to go head to head
659
00:28:22,066 --> 00:28:23,467
for the grand prize.
660
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,834
A contract from the town of
Ashland Falls worth $25,000
661
00:28:30,266 --> 00:28:33,834
to decorate every municipal
building next holiday season.
662
00:28:33,967 --> 00:28:36,834
And this year Cardinal
Group Energy is sponsoring
663
00:28:36,967 --> 00:28:40,000
an additional $50,000
prize to the winner!
664
00:28:46,834 --> 00:28:50,467
Hi, just wanted to
come introduce myself.
665
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:51,633
Wade Edwards.
666
00:28:51,767 --> 00:28:52,767
- Bill Ryan.
- Hi.
667
00:28:52,900 --> 00:28:54,476
- Nice to meet you.
This is my daughter, Grace.
668
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:55,500
- Oh, hi.
- Hi.
669
00:28:55,567 --> 00:28:57,600
- And my wife, Arlene.
- Oh, hi.
670
00:28:57,734 --> 00:28:59,834
So I've seen
your work, it's...
671
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,266
colorful,
672
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:03,734
different.
673
00:29:03,867 --> 00:29:04,910
Yeah, I think that's
why people are responding
674
00:29:04,934 --> 00:29:06,033
the way they are.
675
00:29:06,166 --> 00:29:08,100
Hired two new crews to
keep up with demand.
676
00:29:09,300 --> 00:29:10,643
I'm sure you knew what that
was like back when you were
677
00:29:10,667 --> 00:29:12,900
at the top of your game.
678
00:29:13,033 --> 00:29:15,900
I like to think I'm still
at the top of my game, Wade.
679
00:29:16,033 --> 00:29:19,266
Right, yeah, been five
years since you last one?
680
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,233
Six, but who's counting?
681
00:29:21,367 --> 00:29:24,533
Well every year's a chance
turn it all around. Right?
682
00:29:24,667 --> 00:29:25,767
Anyway.
683
00:29:25,900 --> 00:29:27,200
Good luck.
684
00:29:27,333 --> 00:29:28,633
To you too.
685
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,200
Your deck house will be
that one right over there.
686
00:29:34,333 --> 00:29:35,467
Oh great.
687
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:36,467
We can work with that.
688
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,567
- All right.
- Yeah, good.
689
00:29:38,700 --> 00:29:40,620
And yours will be next
to Deck the Halls, okay?
690
00:29:41,867 --> 00:29:44,467
Okay.
691
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:45,667
Right.
692
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:46,843
So we'll take a
bunch of photographs
693
00:29:46,867 --> 00:29:48,142
and then I'll go
back to the shop
694
00:29:48,166 --> 00:29:49,366
and start plotting the design.
695
00:29:49,467 --> 00:29:50,600
Right.
696
00:29:50,734 --> 00:29:51,943
A lot riding on
things this year,
697
00:29:51,967 --> 00:29:53,287
so we can't waste
a single moment.
698
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:54,266
Yeah.
699
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,700
What was that dad?
700
00:29:55,834 --> 00:29:57,142
Oh, I was just telling
your mother that second place
701
00:29:57,166 --> 00:29:58,533
won't cut it this year.
702
00:29:58,667 --> 00:30:01,000
Ah, right, because second
place is just the first loser.
703
00:30:01,133 --> 00:30:02,367
- Yeah.
- Exactly right.
704
00:30:02,500 --> 00:30:03,600
Anyway. Come on.
705
00:30:03,734 --> 00:30:05,374
You always give the
best pep talks, Dad.
706
00:30:06,066 --> 00:30:08,033
- Come on.
- Yep.
707
00:30:18,467 --> 00:30:19,707
What about this color scheme?
708
00:30:19,834 --> 00:30:21,400
You think that would work again?
709
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,133
Just Dad's really
in the zone, huh?
710
00:30:26,266 --> 00:30:28,009
And he wants to make a
strong showing after being
711
00:30:28,033 --> 00:30:30,033
out of the competition
for so long.
712
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,533
You want some hot chocolate?
713
00:30:34,667 --> 00:30:36,400
Yes, sure. Fuel for the fire.
714
00:30:36,533 --> 00:30:37,767
Yes, please.
715
00:30:45,867 --> 00:30:47,400
Do you want something?
716
00:30:47,533 --> 00:30:49,567
Oh yes. I'll take a
hot chocolate please.
717
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:51,009
It's been an hour
since I had some,
718
00:30:51,033 --> 00:30:52,600
my body's going
through withdrawal.
719
00:30:54,100 --> 00:30:55,233
Thank you.
720
00:30:55,367 --> 00:30:58,300
And here, let me get
that for you. Thank you.
721
00:30:58,433 --> 00:31:00,600
And two more, please.
Keep the change.
722
00:31:00,734 --> 00:31:02,133
You don't have-
723
00:31:02,266 --> 00:31:03,576
- After the pizzelles and
the free drinks last night,
724
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,200
it's the least I can do.
725
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,333
- Ah, thank you.
I appreciate that.
726
00:31:08,467 --> 00:31:10,266
I'm glad we ran into each other.
727
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,900
I wanted to tell you what a
nice time I had last night.
728
00:31:13,033 --> 00:31:14,433
Me too.
729
00:31:14,567 --> 00:31:17,900
I can't remember the last time
I stayed out until last call.
730
00:31:18,033 --> 00:31:19,843
Well, I definitely prefer
doing it on that side
731
00:31:19,867 --> 00:31:21,233
of the bar, that's for sure.
732
00:31:22,367 --> 00:31:24,000
Are you sure Pat wasn't upset?
733
00:31:24,133 --> 00:31:25,667
Oh yeah, he's fine.
734
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,467
I think he's just happy to
see me having a good time.
735
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:31,734
Is that so rare?
736
00:31:31,867 --> 00:31:35,333
Not as frequent as
I'd like it to be,
737
00:31:35,467 --> 00:31:39,467
but bumping into you around
town definitely helps.
738
00:31:40,934 --> 00:31:42,867
Are you just out
enjoying the calm
739
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,280
before the Bright Night's storm.
740
00:31:44,367 --> 00:31:45,734
Ah, yeah.
741
00:31:45,867 --> 00:31:47,376
My mom and I are taking
out my nephew just before
742
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,467
we start helping Dad.
743
00:31:50,066 --> 00:31:54,200
And your dad, is he working on
his sketches for the contest?
744
00:31:54,333 --> 00:31:56,467
Oh, yeah. He's deep in it.
745
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,200
You know, your father
better watch out,
746
00:31:58,333 --> 00:32:00,767
substituting candy
canes for snowflakes
747
00:32:00,900 --> 00:32:02,266
ain't going to cut it this year.
748
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,734
Yeah. Well, I think he's
got a few tricks in his bag.
749
00:32:05,867 --> 00:32:07,900
- Sure.
But I mean, you have to admit,
750
00:32:08,033 --> 00:32:09,743
his designs are kind of looking
the same the last couple
751
00:32:09,767 --> 00:32:11,100
of years, so.
752
00:32:11,233 --> 00:32:13,042
Oh, maybe your dad should
spend less time dreaming
753
00:32:13,066 --> 00:32:15,367
up his designs and more
time executing them.
754
00:32:17,300 --> 00:32:20,967
Yeah. Maybe.
755
00:32:21,100 --> 00:32:25,734
Well, thank you for
the hot chocolate.
756
00:32:25,867 --> 00:32:27,767
I guess this makes
us square now.
757
00:32:27,900 --> 00:32:29,600
Yeah, I guess it does.
758
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:35,934
I'll see you later.
759
00:32:36,066 --> 00:32:37,266
Oh, thank you, honey.
760
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,400
Thank you.
761
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,900
Don't you think that's
a little ambitious?
762
00:32:47,033 --> 00:32:51,033
Maybe we should save
that for the finals,
763
00:32:51,166 --> 00:32:54,467
go with something a little
simpler for the prelims?
764
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,033
Well, we have to
make it to the finals.
765
00:33:03,367 --> 00:33:05,033
Something's
missing, isn't there?
766
00:33:05,166 --> 00:33:06,567
The only thing
that's not in there
767
00:33:06,700 --> 00:33:09,200
is a complete re-creation
of Santa's workshop.
768
00:33:09,333 --> 00:33:11,967
Keep in mind, we don't want
the deck house to collapse.
769
00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:13,834
It's got to sing, Grace.
770
00:33:13,967 --> 00:33:15,810
I mean the committee has to
have its collective breath
771
00:33:15,834 --> 00:33:16,934
taken away.
772
00:33:17,066 --> 00:33:18,543
Yes, I know. And
you will get there.
773
00:33:18,567 --> 00:33:20,807
I just think that you're
possibly overstuffing the designs
774
00:33:20,834 --> 00:33:22,433
in hopes that bigger
equals better.
775
00:33:22,567 --> 00:33:25,367
Yeah, but you've always
been able to spin my ideas
776
00:33:25,500 --> 00:33:28,033
into gold, so come
on, spin away.
777
00:33:28,166 --> 00:33:29,533
I think once
you start editing,
778
00:33:29,667 --> 00:33:31,367
you'll find the story
you want to tell.
779
00:33:31,500 --> 00:33:32,367
Yeah, right,
780
00:33:32,500 --> 00:33:33,600
- Bill.
- Hm?
781
00:33:33,734 --> 00:33:35,367
It's Alonzo, said
it was important.
782
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,266
- Okay.
I'll be right back.
783
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,333
Yep.
784
00:33:41,467 --> 00:33:44,233
Is it me or does he seem
more stressed this year?
785
00:33:44,367 --> 00:33:45,834
Oh.
786
00:33:45,967 --> 00:33:47,934
I think Frank Scotto
being in the contest again
787
00:33:48,066 --> 00:33:48,934
is making him anxious.
788
00:33:49,066 --> 00:33:50,066
Right.
789
00:33:50,166 --> 00:33:52,166
You did not hear that from me.
790
00:33:52,300 --> 00:33:54,967
- Oh, it's Sarah.
I should take this.
791
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:57,667
Sorry.
792
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:58,900
Hey.
793
00:33:59,033 --> 00:34:00,266
How goes it go it, lady?
794
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:01,600
Uh, fine.
795
00:34:02,867 --> 00:34:05,967
Try to contain
your excitement.
796
00:34:06,100 --> 00:34:08,934
Yeah. I'm helping Dad
with the competition again.
797
00:34:09,066 --> 00:34:10,400
Pulled you in again, huh?
798
00:34:10,533 --> 00:34:11,533
Neck deep.
799
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:13,967
The reason I called was,
800
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:16,220
the producers invited us to
their annual holiday party
801
00:34:16,300 --> 00:34:18,767
at the Whisper in Carytown.
802
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:21,133
Uh, sorry. Sorry, what day?
803
00:34:21,266 --> 00:34:22,300
21st.
804
00:34:22,433 --> 00:34:25,367
Yeah, sure. I'll be there.
805
00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:27,609
Do you think that they'll want
us to talk about our ideas
806
00:34:27,633 --> 00:34:28,633
for the show?
807
00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:29,834
Should we prepare something?
808
00:34:29,967 --> 00:34:31,266
It's a party.
809
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,200
Can't imagine they'd
want to discuss business.
810
00:34:33,300 --> 00:34:34,166
Right?
811
00:34:34,300 --> 00:34:35,300
See you there.
812
00:34:35,367 --> 00:34:38,533
- All right?
- See you there.
813
00:34:38,667 --> 00:34:40,133
Everything okay, Dad?
814
00:34:40,266 --> 00:34:41,667
Yeah, it's all good.
815
00:34:42,700 --> 00:34:44,567
Let's just get back to it, okay?
816
00:34:44,700 --> 00:34:45,700
Yeah.
817
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,367
Hey, Ma. When's that
lasagne going to be ready?
818
00:34:56,500 --> 00:34:58,166
Don't rush the artista.
819
00:35:03,867 --> 00:35:06,900
How do they get the puck
into the air like that?
820
00:35:07,033 --> 00:35:11,000
They practice and then
they practice some more,
821
00:35:11,133 --> 00:35:12,693
but there are some
tricks you can learn.
822
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,367
Juggling is a good
place to start.
823
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:16,734
Juggling? No way, Uncle T.
824
00:35:16,867 --> 00:35:19,667
It's good for the
hand-eye coordination.
825
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,967
Your uncle used to
practice every night.
826
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:25,633
He always pushed himself
to try to be the best.
827
00:35:26,834 --> 00:35:28,967
Even when things
seemed impossible,
828
00:35:29,100 --> 00:35:31,133
he always pushed through.
829
00:35:32,233 --> 00:35:35,967
There was no quit in him.
830
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:39,900
I should get going. Pat needs
me down at the bar tonight.
831
00:35:40,033 --> 00:35:41,066
Juggle.
832
00:35:43,934 --> 00:35:45,700
I think I'm going to
learn how to juggle.
833
00:35:45,834 --> 00:35:46,834
Me, too.
834
00:36:02,900 --> 00:36:05,533
At Ashland
Falls as the 15th Annual
835
00:36:05,667 --> 00:36:06,707
Bright Nights competition.
836
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:07,800
- Hey.
- Hey.
837
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,300
Where's your mother?
838
00:36:10,433 --> 00:36:12,242
She took Evan sledding. She'll
meet us at the deck house.
839
00:36:12,266 --> 00:36:13,433
Oh, okay.
840
00:36:13,567 --> 00:36:14,633
GlowScapes.
841
00:36:14,767 --> 00:36:16,443
The holiday displays
that have been the talk
842
00:36:16,467 --> 00:36:20,100
of Ashland Falls this season
are the work of Wade Edwards.
843
00:36:20,233 --> 00:36:21,367
Tell us more Wade.
844
00:36:21,500 --> 00:36:23,100
Families have been
stringing up lights,
845
00:36:23,233 --> 00:36:25,309
putting a snowman on a lawn
and lining their walkways
846
00:36:25,333 --> 00:36:28,266
with candy canes
since, well, forever.
847
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,300
With GlowScapes, I wanted to
show there was another way,
848
00:36:31,433 --> 00:36:33,967
a better way to decorate
your home for the holidays.
849
00:36:34,100 --> 00:36:37,767
An Alexandria native, Wade
first saw the LED technology
850
00:36:37,900 --> 00:36:41,867
he adopted online and
knew it was the future.
851
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,266
How does he swing
publicity like this?
852
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,467
Maybe GlowScapes
is just that popular.
853
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,033
I mean, people are lining
up just to catch a glimpse.
854
00:36:49,166 --> 00:36:51,433
Wade Edwards and
GlowScapes aim to do
855
00:36:51,567 --> 00:36:53,266
to the holiday decorating space,
856
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,967
what streaming did
for the video store.
857
00:36:56,100 --> 00:36:59,467
With the crowds flocking to
get a gander at his creations,
858
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,900
the future of GlowScapes
looks bright indeed.
859
00:37:03,500 --> 00:37:05,066
All right, well,
let's get to work.
860
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,200
We got a lot to do.
861
00:37:08,433 --> 00:37:09,876
I still don't get how he
gets publicity like that.
862
00:37:09,900 --> 00:37:14,467
And remember you have three
days to complete your deck
863
00:37:15,934 --> 00:37:18,467
house and to give
everyone equal time,
864
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,900
each team begins
work at 9:00 AM,
865
00:37:22,033 --> 00:37:25,633
but it's staple guns
down at exactly 6:00 PM.
866
00:37:25,767 --> 00:37:28,066
You may test your design
once it gets dark,
867
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,633
but no work can be
completed after six.
868
00:37:31,767 --> 00:37:35,233
And you may start
your sleighs...
869
00:37:35,367 --> 00:37:36,934
Now!
870
00:37:37,066 --> 00:37:38,400
Okay.
871
00:37:38,533 --> 00:37:40,333
I think I've come up
with a simpler design,
872
00:37:40,467 --> 00:37:42,867
something a little
bit more practical.
873
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,333
I need two cross beams,
one light going this way,
874
00:37:45,467 --> 00:37:47,667
one light going this way
and it's doing a dance,
875
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,000
it's doing a dance.
876
00:37:49,133 --> 00:37:50,200
I've got it right here!
877
00:37:50,333 --> 00:37:51,576
Get the landscape
out of the way.
878
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:52,676
This bush has to go.
That Bush has to go.
879
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:54,133
These bushes have to go.
880
00:37:54,266 --> 00:37:56,667
- Don't forget to have fun.
- Yeah. No problem.
881
00:38:00,433 --> 00:38:03,433
By the way. Who's Alonzo?
882
00:38:03,567 --> 00:38:04,967
What?
883
00:38:05,100 --> 00:38:07,100
Whoever Dad was talking
to on the call yesterday,
884
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,934
it seemed serious, his
whole demeanor changed.
885
00:38:10,066 --> 00:38:13,200
He's the manager at
our store in Midlothian.
886
00:38:13,333 --> 00:38:14,433
Is everything, okay?
887
00:38:14,567 --> 00:38:16,533
Things are a little
slower than usual.
888
00:38:17,767 --> 00:38:19,376
I overheard a customer
tell dad that he thought
889
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:20,567
the store was closing.
890
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:29,000
Mom, if there's something
up I want to try and help.
891
00:38:29,133 --> 00:38:31,100
The expansion last year
hasn't gone as well as
892
00:38:31,233 --> 00:38:32,367
we would have hoped.
893
00:38:32,500 --> 00:38:35,700
Ah. Well, how not
well are we talking?
894
00:38:35,834 --> 00:38:38,800
Your father's sales
projections were a little off.
895
00:38:38,934 --> 00:38:40,967
With the lease on
the new building
896
00:38:41,100 --> 00:38:43,667
and inventory costs doubling,
897
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,600
the stores are operating
at a loss right now.
898
00:38:46,734 --> 00:38:47,900
You know your father,
899
00:38:48,033 --> 00:38:50,767
he's always pushing
for bigger, better.
900
00:38:50,900 --> 00:38:53,266
And this time he may
have gone too big.
901
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:54,840
Why didn't you
tell me any of this?
902
00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:56,533
He thought we
could work it out
903
00:38:57,934 --> 00:39:00,533
and you would have dropped
everything to help.
904
00:39:00,667 --> 00:39:03,533
Yeah, but that decision should
have been up to me to make.
905
00:39:03,667 --> 00:39:04,967
Well now you know.
906
00:39:06,433 --> 00:39:09,700
So if he seems more amped about
the competition this year,
907
00:39:09,834 --> 00:39:12,633
it's because that extra
50,000 would go a long way.
908
00:39:14,100 --> 00:39:18,800
Yeah.
909
00:39:18,934 --> 00:39:20,974
Maria, why don't you start
with putting the lights
910
00:39:21,066 --> 00:39:22,567
on the Christmas trees?
911
00:39:22,700 --> 00:39:24,667
Anthony and I, we will
start on the roof.
912
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:25,834
- Okay.
- Okay.
913
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,834
Tony, stop eyeballing
the competition.
914
00:39:32,967 --> 00:39:34,533
No matter how attractive she is.
915
00:39:36,367 --> 00:39:43,133
- Whatever.
- Come on.
916
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,400
Three, two, one.
917
00:39:55,533 --> 00:39:57,400
Everybody's stop for the day!
918
00:39:57,533 --> 00:39:58,700
Hands up! Up, up!
919
00:39:58,834 --> 00:40:00,233
Okay? Over there?
920
00:40:12,700 --> 00:40:14,266
You okay?
921
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:15,767
Yeah.
922
00:40:15,900 --> 00:40:18,033
I'm looking at these box
of ornaments that I found
923
00:40:18,166 --> 00:40:19,433
behind the couch.
924
00:40:20,900 --> 00:40:22,676
The ones the Ryans made
that mom tried to hide?
925
00:40:22,700 --> 00:40:25,700
She thinks she's
sly, but I'm onto her.
926
00:40:28,066 --> 00:40:30,333
You know, it's okay to admit
that you miss those times
927
00:40:30,467 --> 00:40:32,600
with them.
928
00:40:32,734 --> 00:40:37,000
That well of nostalgia
dried up a long time ago.
929
00:40:37,133 --> 00:40:41,367
Bill Ryan made sure of that.
930
00:40:41,500 --> 00:40:44,200
Okay.
931
00:40:44,333 --> 00:40:46,300
Have you seen Mom?
932
00:40:46,433 --> 00:40:48,567
She went to meet a
friend for dessert.
933
00:40:48,700 --> 00:40:52,233
All right. Well, I'm going
to go see Pat down at the pub.
934
00:40:52,367 --> 00:40:53,567
I'll see you later?
935
00:41:04,700 --> 00:41:05,767
Hey.
936
00:41:05,900 --> 00:41:08,300
Hey.
937
00:41:08,433 --> 00:41:10,734
Your deck house is
really coming along.
938
00:41:10,867 --> 00:41:11,867
Oh, thanks.
939
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:13,834
Yeah, yours too.
940
00:41:13,967 --> 00:41:17,066
Hey look, about what
I said at the market.
941
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:21,433
You know, I think a couple of
decades of listening to my dad
942
00:41:21,567 --> 00:41:23,676
complain about your father's
work, it kinda creeped in.
943
00:41:23,700 --> 00:41:25,166
So,
944
00:41:25,300 --> 00:41:27,867
I'm sorry.
945
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,967
I think your dad's really upped
his game lately, actually.
946
00:41:31,100 --> 00:41:32,333
Thanks.
947
00:41:32,467 --> 00:41:34,133
And I'm sorry too.
948
00:41:36,333 --> 00:41:37,767
Oh!
949
00:41:37,900 --> 00:41:41,133
Oh, no! What's
happening?
950
00:41:41,266 --> 00:41:43,533
I guess we're in the
middle of a snowball fight.
951
00:41:45,767 --> 00:41:47,166
Watch out! Watch out!
952
00:41:47,300 --> 00:41:48,300
Ah!
953
00:41:49,367 --> 00:41:51,500
Oh, goodness. Are you okay?
954
00:41:51,633 --> 00:41:55,166
I don't think
anything's broken.
955
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:57,567
Oh, you've got a little...
956
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,166
Check it out.
957
00:42:09,300 --> 00:42:10,367
The grandkids together.
958
00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:11,500
Oh, yeah.
959
00:42:11,533 --> 00:42:13,066
It would be so good for them.
960
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:26,533
- Mm.
- Mm hm.
961
00:42:26,667 --> 00:42:29,533
Just because your fathers
have held this ridiculous grudge
962
00:42:29,667 --> 00:42:31,633
never meant we had to
stop being friends.
963
00:42:31,767 --> 00:42:34,467
We still take a girls trip
to Virginia Beach every summer.
964
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:35,633
Mm hm.
965
00:42:35,767 --> 00:42:37,633
And Dad and
Frank have no idea?
966
00:42:37,767 --> 00:42:40,333
They're just too
stubborn to acknowledge it.
967
00:42:40,467 --> 00:42:43,166
They're both right about
each other in a lot of ways.
968
00:42:43,300 --> 00:42:45,180
I think deep down they
know we're still close.
969
00:42:45,300 --> 00:42:47,033
Yeah, I saw Dad looking
at those ornaments
970
00:42:47,166 --> 00:42:48,734
you tried to hide
behind the tree.
971
00:42:48,867 --> 00:42:49,867
He didn't seem to mind.
972
00:42:49,900 --> 00:42:51,867
Oh, it's just pigheadedness.
973
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,500
It's like Bill and the store.
974
00:42:53,633 --> 00:42:55,200
He put money before good sense.
975
00:42:55,333 --> 00:42:58,367
We never should've opened
the other location.
976
00:42:58,500 --> 00:42:59,533
Carla knows.
977
00:42:59,667 --> 00:43:01,100
Oh, wow.
978
00:43:01,233 --> 00:43:04,100
I guess everyone's up to speed
on all the family secrets.
979
00:43:04,233 --> 00:43:05,667
Yeah, with one exception.
980
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,066
What are you two
doing out altogether?
981
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,166
- Aah.
- Are you a date?
982
00:43:11,300 --> 00:43:13,333
- What? No.
- No, no.
983
00:43:13,467 --> 00:43:17,567
We, we just bumped into each
other and then we saw...
984
00:43:17,700 --> 00:43:18,700
Not a date.
985
00:43:18,767 --> 00:43:19,767
Yeah, no.
986
00:43:19,867 --> 00:43:21,200
But we should get out of here.
987
00:43:21,333 --> 00:43:23,233
Yes. Let's leave you to it.
988
00:43:23,367 --> 00:43:24,467
Let you finish your...
989
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,400
And don't worry, your
secret's safe with us.
990
00:43:30,266 --> 00:43:33,934
They came in together and
now they're leaving together.
991
00:43:34,066 --> 00:43:35,367
Seems like a date to me.
992
00:43:35,500 --> 00:43:36,633
Oh yes it does.
993
00:43:38,900 --> 00:43:40,333
I can't believe it.
994
00:43:40,467 --> 00:43:42,667
They kept their friendship
a secret for all these years
995
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,700
without anybody knowing it.
996
00:43:44,834 --> 00:43:45,934
Yeah.
997
00:43:46,066 --> 00:43:47,209
I didn't think my
mother had it in her.
998
00:43:47,233 --> 00:43:48,367
Yeah.
999
00:43:51,333 --> 00:43:52,943
What, you're thinking about
your dad and the stores,
1000
00:43:52,967 --> 00:43:55,233
aren't you?
1001
00:43:55,367 --> 00:43:56,667
You know, maybe I can help.
1002
00:43:58,133 --> 00:43:59,834
Put that MBA to use.
1003
00:43:59,967 --> 00:44:02,233
Sometimes it's good to have
an outside pair of eyes
1004
00:44:02,367 --> 00:44:03,700
to take a look.
1005
00:44:03,834 --> 00:44:06,200
That is a very,
very nice offer,
1006
00:44:06,333 --> 00:44:08,900
but my dad's head would
explode if he knew a Scotto
1007
00:44:09,033 --> 00:44:10,667
was looking at
the company books.
1008
00:44:12,300 --> 00:44:14,300
Well...
1009
00:44:14,433 --> 00:44:17,166
maybe we don't tell them.
1010
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,734
If our mothers can pull
off a little subterfuge,
1011
00:44:20,867 --> 00:44:22,300
why can't you and I?
1012
00:44:23,934 --> 00:44:25,934
Meet me at the
store in the morning?
1013
00:44:26,066 --> 00:44:28,400
It's a da...
1014
00:44:28,533 --> 00:44:32,100
An appointment, an appointment.
1015
00:44:32,233 --> 00:44:33,233
An appointment?
1016
00:44:33,300 --> 00:44:34,300
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
1017
00:44:41,767 --> 00:44:43,300
Is this all of it?
1018
00:44:43,433 --> 00:44:45,033
What, you want
there to be more?
1019
00:44:46,467 --> 00:44:48,734
I'll give it to my father,
he is well organized.
1020
00:44:48,867 --> 00:44:50,867
Well, let's get through
as much of it as we can
1021
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,066
before we have to get
back to the contest.
1022
00:44:59,233 --> 00:45:02,266
Come on, grab the
spreadsheet, dig in.
1023
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,233
Right.
1024
00:45:17,867 --> 00:45:20,133
What's wrong?
1025
00:45:20,266 --> 00:45:22,967
I think I figured out how to
make those icicles look like
1026
00:45:23,100 --> 00:45:24,633
they're melting.
1027
00:45:24,767 --> 00:45:26,967
But...
1028
00:45:27,100 --> 00:45:28,300
But what?
1029
00:45:28,433 --> 00:45:29,743
Means, we're going to
have to take them down
1030
00:45:29,767 --> 00:45:31,133
and redo them.
1031
00:45:31,266 --> 00:45:33,266
No. Pop, we don't
have time for that.
1032
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:34,500
No, we can do it.
1033
00:45:34,633 --> 00:45:36,000
It'll only takes
a couple of hours.
1034
00:45:36,133 --> 00:45:39,233
This needs to be perfect.
It needs to be my best work.
1035
00:45:39,367 --> 00:45:42,567
It's what the people expect.
It's what I expect of myself.
1036
00:45:42,700 --> 00:45:44,533
Nothing less.
1037
00:45:53,433 --> 00:45:55,233
Don't be too hard
on yourself, Dad.
1038
00:45:55,367 --> 00:45:57,033
Still got one more
day to make it sing.
1039
00:45:57,166 --> 00:45:58,743
Plus we only have to be good
enough to get in the finals,
1040
00:45:58,767 --> 00:45:59,934
right?
1041
00:46:00,133 --> 00:46:01,266
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
1042
00:46:10,900 --> 00:46:12,934
Well that doesn't
look like much.
1043
00:46:13,066 --> 00:46:15,700
Oh!
1044
00:46:15,834 --> 00:46:18,166
Well, that's because they
haven't turned it on yet.
1045
00:46:20,100 --> 00:46:22,367
And that's it for
today, everyone!
1046
00:46:22,500 --> 00:46:25,633
We'll be picking the two
finalists tomorrow evening.
1047
00:46:25,767 --> 00:46:28,367
So make your last day count.
1048
00:46:28,500 --> 00:46:29,934
See y'all in the morning!
1049
00:46:31,700 --> 00:46:32,700
Woo!
1050
00:46:32,734 --> 00:46:35,767
Haha! Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah.
1051
00:46:35,900 --> 00:46:36,900
Yes!
1052
00:46:37,934 --> 00:46:39,867
Ha! Woo!
1053
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,100
Okay.
1054
00:46:41,233 --> 00:46:42,676
What'd I tell you
about the cross beams?
1055
00:46:42,700 --> 00:46:44,376
You didn't want to have
them, but I was right again.
1056
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,200
Wade wins again!
1057
00:46:47,333 --> 00:46:51,867
Still think it
doesn't look like much?
1058
00:46:59,667 --> 00:47:00,667
You're up early.
1059
00:47:00,734 --> 00:47:02,133
Yeah.
1060
00:47:02,266 --> 00:47:04,209
A friend just asked me to
go through their company's
1061
00:47:04,233 --> 00:47:07,233
financials to see if I
could diagnose any problems,
1062
00:47:07,367 --> 00:47:09,233
coming up with a few ideas.
1063
00:47:09,367 --> 00:47:10,967
It's been kind of fun actually.
1064
00:47:12,233 --> 00:47:14,500
You know, I feel like
I can genuinely help.
1065
00:47:14,633 --> 00:47:15,633
It feels good.
1066
00:47:15,667 --> 00:47:17,100
Anthony, that's great.
1067
00:47:17,233 --> 00:47:18,500
Yeah.
1068
00:47:18,633 --> 00:47:20,343
Good to see that
glimmer in your eye again.
1069
00:47:20,367 --> 00:47:21,700
Thank you.
1070
00:47:21,834 --> 00:47:24,194
- This last year, I've seen how
hard you've been on yourself.
1071
00:47:25,166 --> 00:47:26,710
I was starting to worry
that maybe you were taking
1072
00:47:26,734 --> 00:47:28,100
after your old man.
1073
00:47:28,233 --> 00:47:30,400
What do you mean by that?
1074
00:47:30,533 --> 00:47:33,200
Nothing. Never mind.
1075
00:47:33,333 --> 00:47:34,433
No. Hey Pop, come on.
1076
00:47:34,567 --> 00:47:36,133
You can't just come...
1077
00:47:36,266 --> 00:47:38,600
I mean, take a seat. Talk
to me. What do you mean?
1078
00:47:44,066 --> 00:47:47,166
Those first Bright
Nights contests,
1079
00:47:47,300 --> 00:47:49,400
Every time I won, first
thought I had was,
1080
00:47:49,533 --> 00:47:51,967
"How am I going to
top myself again?"
1081
00:47:52,100 --> 00:47:53,934
I got so in my head about it,
1082
00:47:54,066 --> 00:47:55,900
it's why I couldn't
finish that year.
1083
00:47:57,333 --> 00:48:01,834
I stopped competing completely
because I was embarrassed.
1084
00:48:01,967 --> 00:48:04,100
I thought this year was
going to be different,
1085
00:48:04,233 --> 00:48:07,066
but we are one day away and
I can't make heads or tails
1086
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,467
of what I want to do or
what I'm trying to do.
1087
00:48:10,934 --> 00:48:13,967
I'm worried we're not
going to finish again.
1088
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:16,233
Pop.
1089
00:48:16,367 --> 00:48:20,100
Come on. We're going
to finish, okay?
1090
00:48:20,233 --> 00:48:25,000
I promise, whatever it
takes we're going to finish.
1091
00:48:25,133 --> 00:48:29,834
Okay?
1092
00:48:40,100 --> 00:48:41,633
Morning, Dad.
1093
00:48:41,767 --> 00:48:43,367
Oh, hey kiddo.
1094
00:48:46,066 --> 00:48:47,867
Everything all right?
1095
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,066
Yeah.
1096
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:50,543
Sarah and I are supposed
to go to this party.
1097
00:48:50,567 --> 00:48:52,176
It's something that
should be good for us,
1098
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,900
for our business, but...
1099
00:48:54,033 --> 00:48:55,500
You'd rather not.
1100
00:48:56,934 --> 00:48:59,233
The last few weeks we
haven't felt like partners.
1101
00:48:59,367 --> 00:49:01,300
It's been the Sarah show.
1102
00:49:01,433 --> 00:49:04,233
I can't tell if it's
because she's right
1103
00:49:04,367 --> 00:49:05,967
and my design sense is way off,
1104
00:49:06,100 --> 00:49:08,333
or if she just decided
that her opinion matters
1105
00:49:08,467 --> 00:49:10,934
more than mine.
1106
00:49:11,066 --> 00:49:14,633
Well, now I understand
why you're so hesitant to
1107
00:49:14,767 --> 00:49:16,734
give up your creative input.
1108
00:49:16,867 --> 00:49:18,476
I know how much this
contest means to you.
1109
00:49:18,500 --> 00:49:19,867
I didn't want to
lead you astray.
1110
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,033
That's the last
thing I'd ever worry about,
1111
00:49:23,166 --> 00:49:24,433
Grace.
1112
00:49:24,567 --> 00:49:27,266
I guess I'm just
nervous to talk with Sarah
1113
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:28,700
about all of this,
1114
00:49:28,834 --> 00:49:30,910
because I know there's a chance
that this could be the end
1115
00:49:30,934 --> 00:49:33,900
of everything we built together,
even worse, our friendship.
1116
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:37,100
All right.
1117
00:49:37,233 --> 00:49:40,934
It's your voice, your
creativity.
1118
00:49:41,066 --> 00:49:43,300
That's what makes
you so special.
1119
00:49:43,433 --> 00:49:46,100
You can't let anyone tap
it down or drown it out.
1120
00:49:46,233 --> 00:49:48,867
A real partner will value
all of your opinions,
1121
00:49:50,367 --> 00:49:52,734
even if sometimes
it may be wrong.
1122
00:49:52,867 --> 00:49:54,133
You know?
1123
00:49:54,266 --> 00:49:55,734
Speaking of which,
1124
00:49:55,867 --> 00:50:00,300
if you have any miracle
fixes for this deck house,
1125
00:50:00,433 --> 00:50:01,800
now's the time.
1126
00:50:01,934 --> 00:50:03,300
It looks good, Dad.
1127
00:50:03,433 --> 00:50:05,967
Good's not going to cut
it where Wade is concerned.
1128
00:50:07,333 --> 00:50:09,166
Don't lose hope.
1129
00:50:09,300 --> 00:50:10,600
I'm not.
1130
00:50:10,734 --> 00:50:13,033
I'm just looking at the
reality of the things.
1131
00:50:15,667 --> 00:50:20,166
Anyway, I should get ready,
it's going to be a long day.
1132
00:50:20,300 --> 00:50:21,567
Chin up.
1133
00:50:21,700 --> 00:50:23,266
Thanks.
1134
00:50:50,266 --> 00:50:53,266
All right, load it out.
1135
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,367
Easy does it.
1136
00:51:04,633 --> 00:51:07,734
Everyone's acting like
we already lost.
1137
00:51:07,867 --> 00:51:09,400
Well, yeah, but I mean...
1138
00:51:12,166 --> 00:51:17,400
Step into my office.
1139
00:51:19,133 --> 00:51:22,166
Look, based on where both
of our houses are at,
1140
00:51:22,300 --> 00:51:24,800
neither one of them is going
to take us into the finals.
1141
00:51:26,300 --> 00:51:28,443
Yeah, but we just need one
of us to get to the finals,
1142
00:51:28,467 --> 00:51:29,867
and then we've got a shot.
1143
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,400
True.
1144
00:51:31,533 --> 00:51:34,100
I have an idea of how
we could do this, but...
1145
00:51:34,233 --> 00:51:36,200
What?
1146
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:41,400
Wow, that...
1147
00:51:41,500 --> 00:51:43,400
That's beautiful. You drew that?
1148
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,633
But that's way more
than a day's work.
1149
00:51:46,767 --> 00:51:48,400
Yeah, for three people it is,
1150
00:51:48,533 --> 00:51:51,033
but with seven, we
could pull it off.
1151
00:51:52,567 --> 00:51:56,767
Where you going to get
these extra four people?
1152
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:02,000
No.
1153
00:52:02,066 --> 00:52:03,467
My family?
1154
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:04,776
Well, you just said that
neither one of our houses
1155
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,533
are good enough to
make it to the finals.
1156
00:52:06,667 --> 00:52:08,834
But if our families
work together,
1157
00:52:08,967 --> 00:52:11,333
maybe we could bring out
the best in each other.
1158
00:52:13,100 --> 00:52:15,500
Or if the last 20 years
have been any indication,
1159
00:52:15,633 --> 00:52:17,266
maybe we'll bring out the worst.
1160
00:52:18,500 --> 00:52:20,834
Did you bump your head
on the ice or something?
1161
00:52:20,967 --> 00:52:23,567
I would rather hang
up the lights for good
1162
00:52:23,700 --> 00:52:25,266
than work with Bill Ryan again.
1163
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:26,800
You know what?
1164
00:52:26,934 --> 00:52:28,810
If partnering up with him
is a more painful thought
1165
00:52:28,834 --> 00:52:31,200
than letting Wade and
his carnival light show
1166
00:52:31,333 --> 00:52:34,433
walk away with the
title, then fine, don't.
1167
00:52:35,900 --> 00:52:37,820
But if decorating means
as much as I know it does
1168
00:52:37,934 --> 00:52:41,233
to you, then temporarily
putting aside your pride,
1169
00:52:42,266 --> 00:52:45,700
it's a small price to pay.
1170
00:52:45,834 --> 00:52:49,333
Look, I said we'd do
whatever it takes to finish,
1171
00:52:49,467 --> 00:52:52,133
whatever it takes.
1172
00:52:52,266 --> 00:52:55,567
This is what it takes.
1173
00:52:55,700 --> 00:52:57,767
Well, what does Bill say?
1174
00:52:57,900 --> 00:52:59,233
Bill?
1175
00:52:59,367 --> 00:53:00,367
He's...
1176
00:53:00,433 --> 00:53:02,333
Open to it.
1177
00:53:02,467 --> 00:53:03,533
Really?
1178
00:53:03,667 --> 00:53:05,266
Well he didn't say no.
1179
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,233
Hm.
1180
00:53:07,367 --> 00:53:08,667
The kids are right.
1181
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:10,276
There's no way our two
houses are going to make it
1182
00:53:10,300 --> 00:53:12,066
to the finals.
1183
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:13,300
Okay.
1184
00:53:13,433 --> 00:53:15,900
So we work together,
temporarily,
1185
00:53:16,033 --> 00:53:17,734
just so we have a better chance.
1186
00:53:17,867 --> 00:53:18,734
All right.
1187
00:53:18,867 --> 00:53:20,767
But if that happens and we win,
1188
00:53:20,900 --> 00:53:23,767
we split the contract and
the money, 50/50, okay?
1189
00:53:29,500 --> 00:53:30,734
Let's go to work.
1190
00:53:30,867 --> 00:53:32,200
Let's.
1191
00:53:32,333 --> 00:53:35,233
You and the Scottos want
to partner up. Really?
1192
00:53:35,367 --> 00:53:36,700
Yeah, exactly.
1193
00:53:36,834 --> 00:53:40,066
We want to join forces and work
on just this house together.
1194
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,109
Well, there's nothing in the
competition agreement saying
1195
00:53:42,133 --> 00:53:44,300
that you can't decorate
one house together,
1196
00:53:44,433 --> 00:53:46,500
but I do want to run
it by the other teams.
1197
00:53:46,633 --> 00:53:47,900
Oh, we asked.
1198
00:53:48,033 --> 00:53:49,176
Mistletoe Designs
already signed off on it.
1199
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:50,200
What about Wade?
1200
00:53:50,233 --> 00:53:51,867
They have my full support.
1201
00:53:53,266 --> 00:53:54,576
Can't wait to see
what rabbit hole
1202
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:56,567
their collective
imaginations take them down.
1203
00:53:56,700 --> 00:53:58,800
Since their team now
consists of seven people,
1204
00:53:58,934 --> 00:54:01,934
I think it only fair that
Mistletoe Designs and GlowScapes
1205
00:54:02,066 --> 00:54:03,133
add to theirs.
1206
00:54:03,266 --> 00:54:04,946
Mm. I feel good about
our current number.
1207
00:54:05,033 --> 00:54:07,500
More people would
feel unnecessary.
1208
00:54:09,667 --> 00:54:12,266
I'll let Mistletoe Designs
know where things stand.
1209
00:54:14,867 --> 00:54:17,200
You have less than half a day.
1210
00:54:17,333 --> 00:54:20,767
If your house isn't
finished by 6:00 PM tonight,
1211
00:54:20,900 --> 00:54:22,500
you're both disqualified.
1212
00:54:22,633 --> 00:54:24,600
Yep. Understood.
1213
00:54:26,633 --> 00:54:27,500
So?
1214
00:54:27,633 --> 00:54:28,633
We got the sign-off.
1215
00:54:28,667 --> 00:54:30,600
Okay. Let's see those designs.
1216
00:54:30,734 --> 00:54:32,000
She's really good, Frank.
1217
00:54:32,133 --> 00:54:35,467
My designs have been uninspired
for a long time, but...
1218
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:37,567
Well, she's got a good eye.
1219
00:54:39,033 --> 00:54:40,867
These are all really great.
1220
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,633
Okay. Well where
do you want us?
1221
00:54:45,100 --> 00:54:47,233
I want two people on the
roof, two on the ground.
1222
00:54:47,367 --> 00:54:48,633
Knock this out real quick.
1223
00:54:48,767 --> 00:54:49,867
- Yeah, okay.
- Okay.
1224
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:51,433
- I'll hit the roof.
- Come on.
1225
00:54:59,467 --> 00:55:03,500
- Where do you want this one?
- Right over there.
1226
00:55:06,767 --> 00:55:07,943
I think we're pulling it off.
1227
00:55:07,967 --> 00:55:10,700
I had no worries whatsoever.
1228
00:55:10,834 --> 00:55:13,233
Okay, fine. It was
a Christmas miracle.
1229
00:55:13,367 --> 00:55:15,734
Hopefully it's enough
to get us in the finals.
1230
00:55:21,767 --> 00:55:24,000
Let's give another
big round of applause
1231
00:55:24,133 --> 00:55:26,000
to our four teams!
1232
00:55:26,133 --> 00:55:28,233
They all did such incredible
work, didn't they?
1233
00:55:28,367 --> 00:55:29,433
Woo!
1234
00:55:31,066 --> 00:55:34,100
But we all know that only
two teams will be moving on
1235
00:55:34,233 --> 00:55:36,266
to compete in the finals.
1236
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:39,967
Our first Bright
Nights finalist is...
1237
00:55:40,100 --> 00:55:41,100
GlowScapes!
1238
00:55:41,133 --> 00:55:42,266
Yes!
1239
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,133
Come on! Yeah! Cross
beams! Cross beams!
1240
00:55:45,266 --> 00:55:47,300
And competing against GlowScapes
1241
00:55:47,433 --> 00:55:51,000
in our 15th annual Bright
Nights finals is...
1242
00:55:52,467 --> 00:55:55,500
the combined team of Good
Tidings and Deck the Halls!
1243
00:55:59,467 --> 00:56:03,600
Hope to see you all back for
the finals in two nights time.
1244
00:56:03,734 --> 00:56:05,967
Good night, everyone! Woo!
1245
00:56:06,100 --> 00:56:07,100
All right.
1246
00:56:07,133 --> 00:56:08,233
Congratulations!
1247
00:56:08,367 --> 00:56:09,543
We just have to
do it one more time.
1248
00:56:09,567 --> 00:56:10,633
We got this.
1249
00:56:10,767 --> 00:56:12,166
Another step
closer to $50,000.
1250
00:56:12,300 --> 00:56:14,600
See, he's always
talking about the money.
1251
00:56:14,734 --> 00:56:16,367
Hey, hey, come on, Dad.
1252
00:56:16,500 --> 00:56:18,900
At least I'm not so
self-centered that I have to be
1253
00:56:19,033 --> 00:56:20,800
perfect at everything I do.
1254
00:56:20,934 --> 00:56:22,834
- Dad.
- No, no, no.
1255
00:56:22,967 --> 00:56:24,109
Rather confront the
fact that you can't stay
1256
00:56:24,133 --> 00:56:25,533
out of your own way.
1257
00:56:25,667 --> 00:56:28,667
He blew up our partnership,
our friendship.
1258
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,700
The work has always
come first for me, Bill.
1259
00:56:30,834 --> 00:56:32,800
It always has and
it always will.
1260
00:56:32,934 --> 00:56:34,800
You never understood that.
1261
00:56:34,934 --> 00:56:38,233
What I understood
all too well back then
1262
00:56:38,367 --> 00:56:41,500
was that your perfectionism
was never about the jobs,
1263
00:56:41,633 --> 00:56:44,233
it was all about
satisfying your own ego.
1264
00:56:44,367 --> 00:56:45,776
Decorating was never
about other people,
1265
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,500
it was always about you,
making yourself happy.
1266
00:56:48,633 --> 00:56:49,843
Okay, come on. Let's cool it.
1267
00:56:49,867 --> 00:56:51,200
Yeah. It's been a long day.
1268
00:56:51,333 --> 00:56:53,266
Let's just all go home
before you say something
1269
00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:54,834
you can't take back, okay?
1270
00:56:56,767 --> 00:57:00,400
A little late for that.
1271
00:57:00,533 --> 00:57:02,200
Dad, come on.
1272
00:57:13,567 --> 00:57:15,500
At least they didn't wrestle.
1273
00:57:15,633 --> 00:57:17,600
Well, tomorrow's another day.
1274
00:57:17,734 --> 00:57:20,000
Do we need to re-explain
the concept
1275
00:57:20,133 --> 00:57:22,000
of naughty nice to them?
1276
00:57:22,133 --> 00:57:23,433
Couldn't hurt.
1277
00:57:23,567 --> 00:57:25,667
So do you have any
plans for this evening?
1278
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:27,233
Yeah, I'm heading to Richmond.
1279
00:57:27,367 --> 00:57:30,433
My business partner and I got
invited to this holiday party
1280
00:57:30,567 --> 00:57:32,200
these producers are throwing.
1281
00:57:32,333 --> 00:57:34,667
And what do these
producers produce?
1282
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:35,900
Reality TV.
1283
00:57:37,367 --> 00:57:40,633
They approached us about
doing a home staging show
1284
00:57:40,767 --> 00:57:42,467
and Sarah and I
would be the hosts.
1285
00:57:44,100 --> 00:57:49,266
How am I just hearing
about this? That's amazing.
1286
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,367
Well, hopefully we can keep
them on their best behavior
1287
00:57:52,500 --> 00:57:53,500
tomorrow.
1288
00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:54,900
Yeah, good luck.
1289
00:57:56,467 --> 00:57:57,967
Uh...
1290
00:57:58,100 --> 00:57:59,133
Night
Night, yep
1291
00:58:07,066 --> 00:58:08,066
What's wrong?
1292
00:58:08,166 --> 00:58:09,734
My mom has my car keys.
1293
00:58:11,300 --> 00:58:12,700
Really?
1294
00:58:12,834 --> 00:58:14,042
Yeah, she borrowed them to
get an extra pair of gloves
1295
00:58:14,066 --> 00:58:15,834
and I forgot to
get the keys back.
1296
00:58:15,967 --> 00:58:18,767
Jeez. That's too bad.
1297
00:58:18,900 --> 00:58:19,900
Yeah.
1298
00:58:22,867 --> 00:58:25,233
Well. Have a great night.
1299
00:58:25,367 --> 00:58:26,633
Oh, Tony!
1300
00:58:26,767 --> 00:58:28,967
What?
1301
00:58:29,100 --> 00:58:31,633
I'm just kidding.
1302
00:58:31,767 --> 00:58:33,200
Come on, I'll give you a ride,
1303
00:58:33,333 --> 00:58:36,100
but this really
does make a square.
1304
00:58:36,233 --> 00:58:39,333
Totally.
1305
00:58:47,100 --> 00:58:49,033
It's a good thing
you had that extra key.
1306
00:58:49,166 --> 00:58:51,133
A Girl Scout always
has a backup plan.
1307
00:58:52,767 --> 00:58:55,300
You sure you want me
to come to this party?
1308
00:58:55,433 --> 00:58:57,266
I'm not exactly dressed for it.
1309
00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:58,467
You drove all this way,
1310
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:00,000
let me at least buy
you a free drink
1311
00:59:00,066 --> 00:59:02,467
and fill you up on
canapes for the trouble.
1312
00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:04,400
You've got a nice place.
1313
00:59:04,533 --> 00:59:07,567
It's almost like you
stage homes for a living.
1314
00:59:07,700 --> 00:59:08,834
Like it?
1315
00:59:08,967 --> 00:59:10,200
Yeah, it's...
1316
00:59:13,900 --> 00:59:15,367
It's beautiful.
1317
00:59:18,166 --> 00:59:20,834
I didn't bring any party
clothes to my parent's house,
1318
00:59:20,967 --> 00:59:22,266
so thanks for the pit stop.
1319
00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:25,367
Shall we?
1320
00:59:25,500 --> 00:59:26,633
Let's do it.
1321
00:59:32,633 --> 00:59:35,433
I just love Richmond
during the Christmas time.
1322
00:59:35,567 --> 00:59:36,767
Yeah.
1323
00:59:36,900 --> 00:59:37,900
It's pretty special.
1324
00:59:39,367 --> 00:59:40,743
Actually, the bar's
not too far from here.
1325
00:59:40,767 --> 00:59:42,266
Do you want to just walk?
1326
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,300
I'd love to.
1327
00:59:44,433 --> 00:59:45,533
- Ooh! Ooh!
- Aah!
1328
00:59:46,700 --> 00:59:47,867
Are you okay?
1329
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:49,300
Yeah.
1330
00:59:49,433 --> 00:59:50,767
Wow, for a hockey player,
1331
00:59:50,900 --> 00:59:52,767
you aren't so
graceful on the ice.
1332
00:59:57,066 --> 00:59:58,700
There she is.
1333
00:59:58,834 --> 01:00:00,767
Hi.
1334
01:00:00,900 --> 01:00:02,000
Don't worry about me.
1335
01:00:02,133 --> 01:00:04,133
You do your thing
and I'll go mingle.
1336
01:00:04,266 --> 01:00:06,066
Okay.
1337
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:09,967
Hey Henry, how are you guys?
1338
01:00:10,100 --> 01:00:12,009
Our lustrous producer was
just asking us what the show
1339
01:00:12,033 --> 01:00:13,433
might be like.
1340
01:00:13,567 --> 01:00:16,633
Well, we haven't had time
to discuss the direction yet,
1341
01:00:16,767 --> 01:00:18,066
but we're-
1342
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:19,476
- But the show should follow
us meeting our clients
1343
01:00:19,500 --> 01:00:21,180
and seeing their houses
for the first time,
1344
01:00:21,266 --> 01:00:23,433
how we come up with the
design and the layouts,
1345
01:00:23,567 --> 01:00:25,343
and you can give them
all those little details
1346
01:00:25,367 --> 01:00:27,400
about the furniture
you love to talk about.
1347
01:00:27,533 --> 01:00:31,000
And we can end each episode
with the houses being sold
1348
01:00:31,133 --> 01:00:32,934
for over asking, of course.
1349
01:00:34,100 --> 01:00:35,667
Yeah, exactly.
1350
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:37,767
See, whole idea sells itself.
1351
01:00:37,900 --> 01:00:39,540
It's got a perfectly
built-in structure.
1352
01:00:39,667 --> 01:00:41,467
It's really smart.
1353
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:42,776
Can you excuse me for a minute?
1354
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:44,166
Don't go. I'll be right back.
1355
01:00:47,433 --> 01:00:50,233
- Did you hear that?
He loved our idea.
1356
01:00:50,367 --> 01:00:53,367
The dynamic duo strikes again.
1357
01:00:53,500 --> 01:00:54,867
Okay, about that,
1358
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,734
I feel like we haven't
been much of a duo lately.
1359
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,300
It feels more like
I'm your plus one.
1360
01:01:01,433 --> 01:01:03,166
What? How do you mean?
1361
01:01:03,300 --> 01:01:05,500
Oh, you just been...
1362
01:01:06,967 --> 01:01:10,033
really dismissive of my
ideas the past few months,
1363
01:01:10,166 --> 01:01:12,834
like my opinion doesn't seem
to matter to you anymore.
1364
01:01:12,967 --> 01:01:15,834
Grace, your
opinion matters to me
1365
01:01:15,967 --> 01:01:17,834
when you stand behind it.
1366
01:01:17,967 --> 01:01:19,066
What?
1367
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:20,767
If you really
believed in an idea,
1368
01:01:20,900 --> 01:01:23,033
then you need to push back.
1369
01:01:23,166 --> 01:01:24,443
But when you don't say anything,
1370
01:01:24,467 --> 01:01:26,834
I have to assume
we're in agreement.
1371
01:01:26,967 --> 01:01:28,233
I can't read your mind.
1372
01:01:28,367 --> 01:01:30,667
Yeah, but you just
dismissed what I had to say
1373
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:32,100
in front of Henry a second ago.
1374
01:01:32,233 --> 01:01:34,333
I'm not even sure you
know you're doing it.
1375
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,100
Maybe this isn't the best
place for us to be having
1376
01:01:38,233 --> 01:01:39,233
this conversation.
1377
01:01:40,266 --> 01:01:42,133
Yeah, you're right.
1378
01:01:42,266 --> 01:01:43,734
I should go.
1379
01:01:50,567 --> 01:01:54,166
Excuse me. Sorry.
1380
01:01:54,300 --> 01:01:55,333
Hey.
1381
01:01:55,467 --> 01:01:56,767
Can we go?
1382
01:01:56,900 --> 01:01:59,233
- Yeah, of course.
- Okay, thanks.
1383
01:02:05,100 --> 01:02:07,467
Well, I think it's good
that you said something,
1384
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,100
got it off your mind before
your business relationship
1385
01:02:10,233 --> 01:02:11,467
poisoned your friendship.
1386
01:02:14,633 --> 01:02:15,500
There you go.
1387
01:02:15,633 --> 01:02:16,633
Thank you so much. Yah!
1388
01:02:16,700 --> 01:02:18,000
I don't know how they do that.
1389
01:02:18,133 --> 01:02:20,033
You could not pay me
enough money to sing
1390
01:02:20,166 --> 01:02:21,567
in front of people.
1391
01:02:21,700 --> 01:02:24,200
Well, you played hockey in
front of thousands of people
1392
01:02:24,333 --> 01:02:26,400
but you think singing is scary.
1393
01:02:26,533 --> 01:02:29,166
You obviously have
not heard me sing.
1394
01:02:29,300 --> 01:02:30,633
You're
right. You're right.
1395
01:02:30,767 --> 01:02:31,767
But...
1396
01:02:31,867 --> 01:02:33,333
Come on. It can't be that bad.
1397
01:02:34,367 --> 01:02:35,400
Ooh.
1398
01:02:35,533 --> 01:02:37,467
When was the last
time you tried?
1399
01:02:38,734 --> 01:02:41,033
Um.
1400
01:02:41,166 --> 01:02:44,400
Well, it wasn't the
last time, but...
1401
01:02:44,533 --> 01:02:47,133
this one Christmas,
1402
01:02:47,266 --> 01:02:49,734
my parents took Maria
and I to Tuscany.
1403
01:02:49,867 --> 01:02:52,533
Actually it was right after
the falling out with your dad.
1404
01:02:52,667 --> 01:02:55,734
And my cousins, they have
this tradition where they
1405
01:02:55,867 --> 01:02:57,700
go through the
neighborhood door to door,
1406
01:02:57,834 --> 01:03:01,900
just belting out Italian
Christmas carols, right?
1407
01:03:02,033 --> 01:03:04,800
And then the neighbors come
out and they give you candy
1408
01:03:04,934 --> 01:03:06,867
and sweets for your trouble.
1409
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:08,467
That sounds like fun.
1410
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:10,500
Yeah, it is.
1411
01:03:11,700 --> 01:03:13,700
But I think there's
something about singing
1412
01:03:13,834 --> 01:03:15,233
in a foreign language,
1413
01:03:15,367 --> 01:03:17,066
just makes you feel
less self-conscious,
1414
01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,066
because we barely
knew any Italian,
1415
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:21,567
and my cousins didn't
know any English,
1416
01:03:21,700 --> 01:03:24,667
but somehow it just, it
brought us closer together.
1417
01:03:26,133 --> 01:03:29,000
I think mutual embarrassment
kind of tears down walls,
1418
01:03:29,133 --> 01:03:30,133
if that makes sense.
1419
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,166
Right. Yes.
1420
01:03:32,300 --> 01:03:34,900
Ya know what? I have an idea.
1421
01:03:35,033 --> 01:03:36,367
Come on.
1422
01:03:36,500 --> 01:03:37,600
Okay.
1423
01:04:06,233 --> 01:04:08,033
What is that?
1424
01:04:08,166 --> 01:04:11,900
♪ Round yon virgin
mother and child ♪
1425
01:04:30,767 --> 01:04:31,633
Aww.
1426
01:04:31,767 --> 01:04:32,843
Tone, what are you doing?
1427
01:04:32,867 --> 01:04:35,333
I'm embarrassing myself, Pop.
1428
01:04:36,500 --> 01:04:37,800
Let's come inside.
1429
01:04:37,934 --> 01:04:40,000
We have plenty of vino
brulee, mom made struffoli.
1430
01:04:40,133 --> 01:04:41,367
Let's get out of the cold.
1431
01:04:41,500 --> 01:04:43,276
No, no, no. Actually, we were
hoping that you would join us
1432
01:04:43,300 --> 01:04:45,266
for another stop.
1433
01:05:02,100 --> 01:05:07,567
♪ Round yon virgin
mother and child ♪
1434
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:16,667
♪ So tender and mild... ♪
1435
01:05:20,967 --> 01:05:24,667
♪ ...in peace ♪
1436
01:05:26,066 --> 01:05:30,633
♪ ...in peace ♪
1437
01:05:30,767 --> 01:05:31,767
Oh!
1438
01:05:31,900 --> 01:05:34,066
That was beautiful!
1439
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:35,600
Come in. Come in.
1440
01:05:45,667 --> 01:05:47,033
Frank?
1441
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,400
You were right, Frank.
1442
01:05:56,533 --> 01:06:01,633
I put profit ahead of all the
work that we did together.
1443
01:06:01,767 --> 01:06:03,133
Instead of asking
you how you felt,
1444
01:06:03,266 --> 01:06:05,900
I pushed you into a place that
made you feel uncomfortable.
1445
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:13,000
Well, despite all that,
1446
01:06:13,133 --> 01:06:14,743
I know that you just
wanted to get the most
1447
01:06:14,767 --> 01:06:15,934
out of working together.
1448
01:06:17,433 --> 01:06:22,633
My stubbornness and my ego
kept me from seeing that.
1449
01:06:22,767 --> 01:06:24,700
Yeah.
1450
01:06:24,834 --> 01:06:28,467
Remember joking about our
kids being together someday?
1451
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,567
Well, if we weren't so
wrapped up in holding grudges,
1452
01:06:31,700 --> 01:06:33,467
maybe it would have
happened sooner.
1453
01:06:40,066 --> 01:06:43,834
I'm sorry, Bill.
1454
01:06:43,967 --> 01:06:46,600
Me too, Frank. Me too.
1455
01:07:03,700 --> 01:07:06,000
Same rules apply as before.
1456
01:07:06,133 --> 01:07:09,700
All we're asking for is
your most ambitious displays
1457
01:07:09,834 --> 01:07:11,500
of your lives!
1458
01:07:11,633 --> 01:07:13,967
You may start your sleighs...
1459
01:07:14,100 --> 01:07:15,233
Now!
1460
01:07:17,133 --> 01:07:18,600
Okay.
1461
01:07:18,734 --> 01:07:21,367
Okay. So what's the plan?
1462
01:07:21,500 --> 01:07:23,767
Well, actually your story
about Italy got me thinking
1463
01:07:23,900 --> 01:07:25,900
about other Italian
Christmas traditions.
1464
01:07:26,033 --> 01:07:29,066
So I did some research and
I found something I think
1465
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:32,333
to be pretty interesting
and completely unexpected.
1466
01:07:33,934 --> 01:07:35,333
A ceppo.
1467
01:07:35,467 --> 01:07:38,300
My grandparents always had a
tree of light at Christmas.
1468
01:07:38,433 --> 01:07:40,367
And it can also
mean yule log, right?
1469
01:07:40,500 --> 01:07:41,867
Yes.
1470
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:43,476
The tradition is that you
cut a trunk of the tree
1471
01:07:43,500 --> 01:07:46,367
and you burn the log in the
fireplace on Christmas night.
1472
01:07:46,500 --> 01:07:48,533
And then the kids of the family,
1473
01:07:48,667 --> 01:07:51,667
they hit the burning embers
till the sparks fly up
1474
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,200
into the air,
1475
01:07:53,333 --> 01:07:55,533
symbolizing the hopes of the
family for the coming year.
1476
01:07:57,166 --> 01:07:58,467
Can we do it in two days?
1477
01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:00,934
Well, give it a
detailed design,
1478
01:08:01,066 --> 01:08:04,033
no one second guessing
each other, complete focus
1479
01:08:04,166 --> 01:08:07,300
and every available family
member lending a hand.
1480
01:08:08,834 --> 01:08:09,834
Maybe.
1481
01:08:11,567 --> 01:08:12,567
Okay.
1482
01:08:12,667 --> 01:08:14,700
Where do you want me to start?
1483
01:08:14,834 --> 01:08:16,967
The lights Tony and
Grace are laying in,
1484
01:08:17,100 --> 01:08:19,633
are going to lead to the
second tier of the ceppo.
1485
01:08:19,767 --> 01:08:21,600
Uh huh. It's
going to look great.
1486
01:08:21,734 --> 01:08:22,934
- I think so.
- Yep.
1487
01:08:24,934 --> 01:08:27,367
- Hey Grace.
- Hey.
1488
01:08:27,500 --> 01:08:29,533
I just want to thank you.
1489
01:08:29,667 --> 01:08:30,667
For what?
1490
01:08:32,066 --> 01:08:33,934
For helping me to
realize why I got
1491
01:08:34,066 --> 01:08:37,033
into the decorating
business in the first place.
1492
01:08:37,166 --> 01:08:38,967
Doing this with the
people you love,
1493
01:08:40,133 --> 01:08:43,633
trying to bring a little
joy into the world.
1494
01:08:43,767 --> 01:08:48,467
That should have always been
more than enough, you know?
1495
01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:52,934
Three, two, one,
everybody stop!
1496
01:08:53,066 --> 01:08:54,734
Tomorrow's the big day.
1497
01:08:54,867 --> 01:08:57,567
You'll have a few extra
hours to get every light,
1498
01:08:57,700 --> 01:08:59,734
bow and bow in its place.
1499
01:09:01,500 --> 01:09:03,767
Let's see how this
looks, shall we?
1500
01:09:22,166 --> 01:09:24,567
Boom.
1501
01:09:24,700 --> 01:09:25,867
Yeah.
1502
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:27,333
Whoa.
1503
01:09:27,467 --> 01:09:29,300
That was...
1504
01:09:29,433 --> 01:09:30,567
Stunning.
1505
01:09:30,700 --> 01:09:32,509
Yeah, if their goal is
to give people headache
1506
01:09:32,533 --> 01:09:34,500
and blurred vision, then
mission accomplished,
1507
01:09:34,633 --> 01:09:36,000
otherwise I'm not impressed.
1508
01:09:38,967 --> 01:09:41,767
All right. Come on.
1509
01:09:43,934 --> 01:09:45,800
I think... I think we're
coming along.
1510
01:09:45,934 --> 01:09:48,200
Yeah, we might even finish.
1511
01:09:48,333 --> 01:09:49,700
We'd better.
1512
01:09:49,834 --> 01:09:51,943
I haven't been this exhausted
since two-a-days in college.
1513
01:09:51,967 --> 01:09:55,767
Look, if you want to rest up
for tomorrow, I totally get.
1514
01:09:55,900 --> 01:09:57,876
No, it's better to go over
things with your dad sooner
1515
01:09:57,900 --> 01:09:58,900
rather than later.
1516
01:09:58,934 --> 01:10:00,066
I'll see you at the house?
1517
01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:01,433
- Yeah.
- Okay.
1518
01:10:02,967 --> 01:10:04,667
I don't know what
Grace told you exactly,
1519
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:06,834
but any financial issues
we have with the store,
1520
01:10:06,967 --> 01:10:07,967
I can handle.
1521
01:10:08,033 --> 01:10:09,934
I'm not so sure that's true.
1522
01:10:10,066 --> 01:10:11,500
After looking into your records,
1523
01:10:11,633 --> 01:10:13,934
it seems like you guys
are a little bit behind-
1524
01:10:14,066 --> 01:10:16,533
- Whoa, whoa, whoa. You
let him look at my records?
1525
01:10:16,667 --> 01:10:19,633
Dad, just listen.
1526
01:10:19,767 --> 01:10:20,900
Look.
1527
01:10:21,033 --> 01:10:23,300
The quickest way to ease
your monthly cash losses
1528
01:10:23,433 --> 01:10:25,193
would be to purchase
the building that houses
1529
01:10:25,266 --> 01:10:26,266
your Midlothian store.
1530
01:10:26,367 --> 01:10:29,734
Ha! That's your big idea?
1531
01:10:29,867 --> 01:10:31,233
You want me to spend more money?
1532
01:10:31,367 --> 01:10:32,500
Actually, yes.
1533
01:10:32,633 --> 01:10:34,800
I looked into it and the
lease holding companies
1534
01:10:34,934 --> 01:10:37,300
are already unloaded a few
of their buildings this year
1535
01:10:37,433 --> 01:10:38,700
below cost.
1536
01:10:38,834 --> 01:10:40,509
They might welcome the
opportunity to get another one
1537
01:10:40,533 --> 01:10:41,834
off the books.
1538
01:10:41,967 --> 01:10:44,500
You'd use your inventory, which
you already own obviously,
1539
01:10:44,633 --> 01:10:46,066
as collateral for the loan.
1540
01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:47,743
Mr. Ryan, you do this,
you're going to save
1541
01:10:47,767 --> 01:10:49,800
about $2,000 a month.
1542
01:10:49,934 --> 01:10:51,867
Which brings us
closer to even.
1543
01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:53,066
Exactly.
1544
01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:54,743
And you're putting
your money into equity,
1545
01:10:54,767 --> 01:10:56,266
which gives you
some flexibility,
1546
01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:58,400
if business doesn't
pick up right away.
1547
01:10:58,533 --> 01:11:00,233
Now your marketing,
1548
01:11:00,367 --> 01:11:03,700
which at the moment
is inventory focused.
1549
01:11:03,834 --> 01:11:06,000
It should really be about
letting customers know
1550
01:11:06,133 --> 01:11:07,834
what separates
you from the pack,
1551
01:11:07,967 --> 01:11:10,033
your expertise in refurbishing.
1552
01:11:10,166 --> 01:11:12,433
Yeah, the part of the
business that you love, Dad.
1553
01:11:12,567 --> 01:11:14,800
Your competition in the
area either doesn't offer
1554
01:11:14,934 --> 01:11:17,134
that service or they don't
have anywhere near the amount
1555
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:19,066
of years of expertise
that you do.
1556
01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:22,100
It's low overhead.
It's high return.
1557
01:11:22,233 --> 01:11:23,767
You're a craftsman
1558
01:11:23,900 --> 01:11:25,734
and your customers
need to know that.
1559
01:11:25,867 --> 01:11:26,943
That's why people
came to your business
1560
01:11:26,967 --> 01:11:28,800
in the first place.
1561
01:11:28,934 --> 01:11:31,834
You're skilled to be able
to take a piece of furniture
1562
01:11:31,967 --> 01:11:34,100
and breathe new life into it.
1563
01:11:34,233 --> 01:11:35,567
You see that?
1564
01:11:35,700 --> 01:11:38,667
Ryan's Furniture, where what's
old can we made new again?
1565
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:39,800
I like that.
1566
01:11:39,867 --> 01:11:41,400
Catchy.
1567
01:11:41,533 --> 01:11:43,633
Now I know this
is a lot to chew on,
1568
01:11:43,767 --> 01:11:46,100
but I think these strategies
could really help put you
1569
01:11:46,233 --> 01:11:47,900
in a position of success.
1570
01:11:48,033 --> 01:11:50,700
Well, if these numbers
are what they appear to be,
1571
01:11:50,834 --> 01:11:53,433
then what you're saying is...
1572
01:11:54,633 --> 01:11:55,967
Interesting.
1573
01:11:56,100 --> 01:11:57,266
I can send you the files.
1574
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:59,333
You can check the
numbers yourself.
1575
01:11:59,467 --> 01:12:01,066
Mr. Ryan...
1576
01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:02,200
I just wanted to help.
1577
01:12:17,133 --> 01:12:19,333
This should be enough
I think, don't you?
1578
01:12:25,066 --> 01:12:27,233
Hey, Pop. Be careful, will ya?
1579
01:12:27,367 --> 01:12:28,567
Yes, I will.
1580
01:12:30,433 --> 01:12:31,600
How's it look?
1581
01:12:31,734 --> 01:12:32,800
Great.
1582
01:12:32,934 --> 01:12:35,100
Hey, there's somebody
here to see you.
1583
01:12:35,233 --> 01:12:37,266
Oh, yeah? Who?
1584
01:12:40,266 --> 01:12:42,000
Hey.
1585
01:12:42,133 --> 01:12:44,266
The decorations look amazing.
1586
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:45,400
Thanks.
1587
01:12:45,433 --> 01:12:46,900
We still have a long way to go.
1588
01:12:48,100 --> 01:12:49,743
You didn't have to come
all the way out here,
1589
01:12:49,767 --> 01:12:51,433
you could have just called.
1590
01:12:51,567 --> 01:12:53,600
Somehow a phone call
didn't seem right.
1591
01:12:55,033 --> 01:12:57,800
Remember how hideous our
Mount Kellogg dorm room was?
1592
01:12:57,934 --> 01:13:00,367
Yeah, who could forget
those baby blue walls.
1593
01:13:01,667 --> 01:13:03,033
But we made it work,
1594
01:13:03,166 --> 01:13:05,109
turned it into a spot they
would take applicants by
1595
01:13:05,133 --> 01:13:06,166
on the tour.
1596
01:13:06,300 --> 01:13:08,400
Show them how comfy
dorm life was.
1597
01:13:08,533 --> 01:13:10,300
Our first home staging.
1598
01:13:10,433 --> 01:13:13,300
Where our friendship
and our partnership began.
1599
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,367
I'm really sorry, Grace.
1600
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:18,800
Oh, Sarah, you don't-
1601
01:13:18,934 --> 01:13:20,176
- As soon as the possibility
of a show came around,
1602
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:21,567
I just...
1603
01:13:21,700 --> 01:13:22,967
took over.
1604
01:13:23,100 --> 01:13:24,900
I got so excited.
1605
01:13:25,033 --> 01:13:26,667
And the more excited I got,
1606
01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:29,000
the more I wanted to
control everything.
1607
01:13:29,133 --> 01:13:30,533
It was not cool.
1608
01:13:31,900 --> 01:13:33,710
And I completely understand
if you want to start
1609
01:13:33,734 --> 01:13:35,767
your own thing.
1610
01:13:35,900 --> 01:13:38,033
Whether or not the
show becomes a reality,
1611
01:13:38,166 --> 01:13:41,533
there is no one else I'd
rather be doing this with.
1612
01:13:41,667 --> 01:13:44,400
I'd be 50% less
dynamic without you.
1613
01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:49,834
Friendship first,
business partner second.
1614
01:13:49,967 --> 01:13:51,834
You got it.
1615
01:13:51,967 --> 01:13:57,533
Aww.
1616
01:13:57,667 --> 01:14:00,300
I'd stay and help,
but I got to get back.
1617
01:14:00,433 --> 01:14:02,333
Promised my folks I'd
meet them for dinner.
1618
01:14:02,467 --> 01:14:06,700
I'll send them my
love. Happy holidays.
1619
01:14:06,834 --> 01:14:08,900
- Bye.
- Bye.
1620
01:14:12,467 --> 01:14:14,767
I guess that went well.
1621
01:14:14,900 --> 01:14:16,367
It did actually.
1622
01:14:18,033 --> 01:14:19,800
Dad! Dad.
1623
01:14:21,066 --> 01:14:22,467
Don't move him. Don't move him.
1624
01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:24,266
Okay. Okay. Are you all right?
1625
01:14:25,667 --> 01:14:26,787
- 911.
What's your emergency?
1626
01:14:26,867 --> 01:14:28,567
Yeah, we need an
ambulance right away.
1627
01:14:32,266 --> 01:14:34,400
Okay. Okay.
1628
01:14:34,533 --> 01:14:36,433
Yeah. I'll let them know. Okay.
1629
01:14:38,834 --> 01:14:41,166
That was Mom. Dad's
going to be fine.
1630
01:14:41,300 --> 01:14:43,433
He fractured his clavicle
and had the wind knocked
1631
01:14:43,567 --> 01:14:45,166
out of him, but no broken ribs.
1632
01:14:46,533 --> 01:14:48,009
The Bright Nights committee
said that the deadline
1633
01:14:48,033 --> 01:14:50,166
still stands.
1634
01:14:50,300 --> 01:14:52,300
We've lost a lot of time.
1635
01:14:52,433 --> 01:14:54,009
Look, we all know what
we need to accomplish
1636
01:14:54,033 --> 01:14:56,333
and we can only get it
done if we work in harmony
1637
01:14:56,467 --> 01:14:58,567
as one unit,
1638
01:14:58,700 --> 01:14:59,900
as family.
1639
01:15:00,100 --> 01:15:02,467
Yep.
1640
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:06,500
We have to finish
this for Frank.
1641
01:15:06,633 --> 01:15:10,500
Two minutes everyone,
two minutes to show time!
1642
01:15:10,633 --> 01:15:11,934
Are we good?
1643
01:15:12,066 --> 01:15:13,200
I think so. I think so.
1644
01:15:13,333 --> 01:15:14,876
Maybe we should just
check the connections,
1645
01:15:14,900 --> 01:15:15,767
just to be sure.
1646
01:15:15,900 --> 01:15:17,042
- Good idea.
- One last time, right?
1647
01:15:17,066 --> 01:15:19,033
- Yeah.
- Why not?
1648
01:15:20,567 --> 01:15:21,867
What's going on?
1649
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:23,242
Come on. It's not
working. It's not working!
1650
01:15:23,266 --> 01:15:25,133
- We tested everything.
It should be fine.
1651
01:15:25,266 --> 01:15:27,567
30 seconds to show time!
1652
01:15:27,700 --> 01:15:29,333
I'll check. I'll check.
1653
01:15:34,934 --> 01:15:36,133
Come on.
1654
01:15:36,266 --> 01:15:39,233
Oh my gosh. This
can't be happening.
1655
01:15:41,734 --> 01:15:43,667
- Okay. Okay. Try it.
It should be good.
1656
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:45,033
All right.
1657
01:15:45,166 --> 01:15:46,242
I'll test it one
more time while we have time.
1658
01:15:46,266 --> 01:15:48,600
- Yeah, test it.
- That's it everybody!
1659
01:15:48,734 --> 01:15:51,967
No more tinkering,
testing, or touch ups.
1660
01:15:52,100 --> 01:15:53,467
Oh great.
1661
01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:55,276
I guess we won't know if it
works until it's our turn.
1662
01:15:55,300 --> 01:15:58,967
Welcome everyone to
our Bright Nights finals!
1663
01:16:02,233 --> 01:16:04,500
Let's give a big,
warm round of applause
1664
01:16:04,633 --> 01:16:06,533
to our first finalist...
1665
01:16:06,667 --> 01:16:08,567
GlowScapes!
1666
01:16:33,767 --> 01:16:35,734
Yeah!
1667
01:16:49,300 --> 01:16:50,800
Yeah!
1668
01:17:06,667 --> 01:17:10,066
That was incredible, wasn't it?
1669
01:17:11,433 --> 01:17:14,567
And now get ready for
our other finalist,
1670
01:17:14,700 --> 01:17:15,876
what name are they going with?
1671
01:17:15,900 --> 01:17:18,633
Making Spirits Bright.
1672
01:17:18,767 --> 01:17:21,867
Making Spirits Bright! Woo!
1673
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:23,300
Nice of you to join us, Frank.
1674
01:17:23,433 --> 01:17:24,834
Well, better late than never.
1675
01:17:26,433 --> 01:17:28,734
Do the honors?
1676
01:17:28,867 --> 01:17:34,533
Let's do it together, like
it always should have been.
1677
01:17:34,667 --> 01:17:37,433
Ready?
1678
01:17:37,567 --> 01:17:42,000
One, two, three.
1679
01:17:42,133 --> 01:17:47,300
Guys, hit the thing.
1680
01:17:49,266 --> 01:17:51,233
Good job.
1681
01:18:19,667 --> 01:18:22,433
Whoa!
1682
01:19:26,133 --> 01:19:31,100
Just about perfect, isn't it?
1683
01:19:45,467 --> 01:19:47,934
On behalf of
Cardinal Group Energy
1684
01:19:48,066 --> 01:19:49,934
and the Bright Nights Committee,
1685
01:19:50,066 --> 01:19:52,100
I am pleased to
announce the winner
1686
01:19:52,233 --> 01:19:55,667
of the 15th Annual
Bright Nights contest...
1687
01:19:59,934 --> 01:20:02,300
Making Spirits Bright!
1688
01:20:21,467 --> 01:20:23,433
You know, I just realized something.
-
1689
01:20:23,567 --> 01:20:24,633
- Oh, what's that?
1690
01:20:24,767 --> 01:20:26,700
Well, remember when
I gave you a ride
1691
01:20:26,834 --> 01:20:28,800
and I said we were square?
1692
01:20:28,934 --> 01:20:30,033
We weren't.
1693
01:20:30,166 --> 01:20:31,433
Oh?
1694
01:20:31,567 --> 01:20:34,367
No, 'cause I took that
snowball in the back for you.
1695
01:20:34,500 --> 01:20:36,467
That's right.
1696
01:20:45,166 --> 01:20:47,800
What about now? Are we square?
1697
01:20:47,934 --> 01:20:49,900
Um.
1698
01:20:53,533 --> 01:20:54,800
We're getting there.
1699
01:21:00,133 --> 01:21:01,667
Frank, will you get a move on?
1700
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:03,567
You move like a snail.
1701
01:21:03,700 --> 01:21:05,860
Bill, you don't want me to
fall off the ladder again,
1702
01:21:05,934 --> 01:21:07,266
do you?
1703
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:08,609
No, I just don't want us
to miss the show, that's all.
1704
01:21:08,633 --> 01:21:10,233
We won't.
1705
01:21:10,367 --> 01:21:13,400
I'll get the car.
1706
01:21:13,533 --> 01:21:15,900
Hey, we should
have our own show.
1707
01:21:16,033 --> 01:21:17,433
Hey Pat.
1708
01:21:17,567 --> 01:21:19,934
Yeah, look man, I just wanted
to thank you for hooking me up
1709
01:21:20,066 --> 01:21:22,567
with that restaurant
group in Bonaire.
1710
01:21:22,700 --> 01:21:24,076
No, I think I'm going to be
able to turn things around
1711
01:21:24,100 --> 01:21:26,166
for them.
1712
01:21:26,300 --> 01:21:30,033
Hey, can I call you back?
My sister's calling.
1713
01:21:30,166 --> 01:21:31,033
Hey Maria.
1714
01:21:31,166 --> 01:21:33,500
Yeah, I'm gonna be home in 10.
1715
01:21:33,633 --> 01:21:34,734
Tell Grace not to worry,
1716
01:21:34,867 --> 01:21:36,476
I'm going to be there
before the show starts.
1717
01:21:36,500 --> 01:21:38,467
Okay, bye.
1718
01:21:42,867 --> 01:21:44,600
Cheese, cheese. I got
cheese just for you.
1719
01:21:44,734 --> 01:21:46,400
Oh, yum.
1720
01:21:46,533 --> 01:21:47,800
Have we started yet?
1721
01:21:47,934 --> 01:21:49,533
No, no. Everybody
find a seat though.
1722
01:21:49,667 --> 01:21:51,166
Hey, where's Tony?
1723
01:21:51,300 --> 01:21:53,834
- Here I am!
- Oh, here he is.
1724
01:21:53,967 --> 01:21:55,843
Oh, you inherited your
father's flair for the dramatic.
1725
01:21:55,867 --> 01:21:57,009
I thought you might
miss the start.
1726
01:21:57,033 --> 01:21:58,133
Not for the world.
1727
01:21:58,266 --> 01:21:59,767
Aww.
1728
01:21:59,900 --> 01:22:01,734
I made your favorite.
1729
01:22:01,867 --> 01:22:02,734
Oh, thank you.
1730
01:22:02,867 --> 01:22:05,467
Okay, okay. Sit, sit, sit.
1731
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:07,467
- You guys ready?
- Yeah!
1732
01:22:09,967 --> 01:22:12,033
Okay, here we go.
1733
01:22:12,166 --> 01:22:13,033
I'm Sarah Wolf.
1734
01:22:13,166 --> 01:22:14,500
And I'm Grace Ryan.
1735
01:22:14,633 --> 01:22:17,500
Welcome to a very special
holiday edition of...
1736
01:22:17,633 --> 01:22:18,633
Upstate.
