(cellphone chimes)
6
00:00:57,813 --> 00:00:59,106
- Huh.
7
00:01:00,733 --> 00:01:03,360
Sis, this single is quite happy
not to mingle.
8
00:01:17,666 --> 00:01:19,335
Take 2 Heart.
9
00:01:20,419 --> 00:01:23,214
(■■)
10
00:01:34,016 --> 00:01:35,226
(cellphone vibrating)
11
00:01:35,684 --> 00:01:36,268
(cellphone chimes)
12
00:01:39,647 --> 00:01:41,232
It's not until 9:30.
13
00:01:42,066 --> 00:01:42,983
I'll be there with plenty of
time to spare.
14
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:44,235
(cellphone chimes)
15
00:01:45,736 --> 00:01:47,029
(sighs)
16
00:01:47,488 --> 00:01:48,614
I'll be there in five.
17
00:01:48,864 --> 00:01:50,950
(■■)
18
00:01:51,325 --> 00:01:52,409
(elevator chimes)
19
00:01:55,621 --> 00:01:57,957
Can you pass these out? The
names are on the tags.
20
00:02:02,211 --> 00:02:04,546
Ah. Hello, everyone.
21
00:02:05,047 --> 00:02:07,716
Ah, merry almost Christmas.
22
00:02:08,175 --> 00:02:10,010
I must've missed the 9:30
23
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:13,055
actually means 9:00 memo in the
chat group.
24
00:02:13,389 --> 00:02:15,266
- Uh, Nora,
25
00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:18,811
we felt this board meeting was
of particular importance
26
00:02:19,478 --> 00:02:21,272
given the current state of the
company.
27
00:02:22,106 --> 00:02:24,900
- Well, that is quite cryptic,
Christine.
28
00:02:25,567 --> 00:02:28,445
I mean, our readership has
dipped a bit.
29
00:02:28,988 --> 00:02:32,241
- Oh, not a dip, a major drop.
30
00:02:33,033 --> 00:02:36,203
- Well, usually Christmas is our
biggest reader season
31
00:02:36,829 --> 00:02:38,122
and our biggest advertising
season.
32
00:02:38,831 --> 00:02:40,082
- Well, that may have been true
in the past,
33
00:02:40,791 --> 00:02:42,626
uh, but it has been brought to
our attention
34
00:02:43,460 --> 00:02:46,171
that Level Eleven has taken a
bite out of our audience.
35
00:02:46,839 --> 00:02:48,257
We are missing out on a key
demographic
36
00:02:49,049 --> 00:02:50,342
that our advertisers are very
interested in reaching,
37
00:02:50,759 --> 00:02:52,886
people aged 18-39.
38
00:02:53,262 --> 00:02:56,390
- Ha! Oh. Um...
39
00:02:57,725 --> 00:03:00,311
- Max... - Nora...
40
00:03:01,228 --> 00:03:04,356
- I know that you feel you have
a certain stature on the board
41
00:03:05,107 --> 00:03:08,027
because of your recent move to
chairperson but--
42
00:03:08,485 --> 00:03:09,570
- My father handed over
43
00:03:10,237 --> 00:03:11,530
a multi-million dollar hedge
fund to me
44
00:03:12,323 --> 00:03:14,033
and I nearly doubled its value
in less than a year.
45
00:03:14,491 --> 00:03:15,617
It's that same hedge fund
46
00:03:16,285 --> 00:03:17,328
that allowed you to build this
company.
47
00:03:17,911 --> 00:03:20,331
People, the board, me.
48
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,375
I am thirsty for a Nora Winters
column.
49
00:03:24,084 --> 00:03:27,421
Now look, we have run all of the
online data
50
00:03:28,255 --> 00:03:30,799
and we have found a partner with
some stellar potential.
51
00:03:31,425 --> 00:03:32,843
One that's gonna help bring
readers
52
00:03:33,427 --> 00:03:34,928
into this new target
demographic.
53
00:03:35,554 --> 00:03:37,556
Have you ever heard of "Take 2
Heart"?
54
00:03:39,308 --> 00:03:41,518
Oh, Nora, get out from under
that rock.
55
00:03:42,144 --> 00:03:43,270
It's a revolutionary new dating
app
56
00:03:43,979 --> 00:03:44,897
that pushes people out of their
comfort zone
57
00:03:45,314 --> 00:03:46,315
and into situations
58
00:03:47,024 --> 00:03:48,025
they wouldn't normally find
themselves in,
59
00:03:48,650 --> 00:03:49,526
to meet people the old-fashioned
way,
60
00:03:49,860 --> 00:03:51,070
face to face.
61
00:03:53,113 --> 00:03:54,156
- What does this have to do with
Prism?
62
00:03:54,573 --> 00:03:55,783
- Oh well, you know,
63
00:03:56,533 --> 00:03:58,660
Christmas is the most romantic
time of the year.
64
00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:01,538
- Oh, it is. - What about
Valentine's Day?
65
00:04:02,206 --> 00:04:04,375
- It's too cliché. Christmas is
magical.
66
00:04:04,708 --> 00:04:06,752
It's cozy.
67
00:04:07,044 --> 00:04:09,129
- Hmm.
68
00:04:09,755 --> 00:04:11,423
- The program on Take 2 Heart's
app
69
00:04:12,091 --> 00:04:13,342
will be used to prove that
Christmas is
70
00:04:13,967 --> 00:04:15,219
the best time of year to fall in
love.
71
00:04:16,095 --> 00:04:17,721
And the person who is gonna test
out this theory will be...
72
00:04:18,347 --> 00:04:20,849
Drum roll, Christine. Nora
Winters!
73
00:04:21,183 --> 00:04:22,684
- Excuse me?
74
00:04:23,519 --> 00:04:26,980
- So, you are gonna follow Take
2 Heart's multi-step plan
75
00:04:27,439 --> 00:04:28,816
on how to fall in love.
76
00:04:29,691 --> 00:04:31,777
And while doing so, you're gonna
create a series of columns
77
00:04:32,319 --> 00:04:33,404
to be posted on the Prism site,
78
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,198
with some exclusive content
along the way.
79
00:04:36,824 --> 00:04:38,200
Romance and Christmas poll very
high
80
00:04:38,659 --> 00:04:39,618
with this new demographic
81
00:04:40,411 --> 00:04:41,995
and you poll very high with the
current demographic,
82
00:04:42,663 --> 00:04:44,331
so it's a win-win for everyone.
- Hmm.
83
00:04:45,999 --> 00:04:47,084
Except me.
84
00:04:47,501 --> 00:04:48,919
(laughs awkwardly)
85
00:04:49,169 --> 00:04:50,003
Oh!
86
00:04:50,504 --> 00:04:52,256
I'm not doing a dating app
87
00:04:52,881 --> 00:04:54,633
and I'm not writing a dating
column.
88
00:04:55,217 --> 00:04:57,928
- You don't really have a
choice.
89
00:04:58,345 --> 00:05:00,431
- It's my company.
90
00:05:01,056 --> 00:05:03,434
- No, it's a public company,
91
00:05:04,476 --> 00:05:06,145
of which my hedge fund owns the
majority of voting shares.
92
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,272
(clicks tongue)
93
00:05:09,022 --> 00:05:12,443
Okay, look, this-this is a fun
and engaging idea,
94
00:05:13,527 --> 00:05:17,156
however, if you really do wanna
go after this new demographic,
95
00:05:17,781 --> 00:05:18,657
I'm sure that there are other
ways.
96
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:20,909
- Nora, your way is costing us.
97
00:05:23,078 --> 00:05:25,247
- And if I don't do this?
98
00:05:25,998 --> 00:05:28,459
- Hypothetically, the board
could vote you out
99
00:05:29,209 --> 00:05:30,752
as CEO and put in someone else
who's willing
100
00:05:31,545 --> 00:05:33,088
to do what it takes to ensure
the future of Prism.
101
00:05:33,547 --> 00:05:34,756
- Are you serious, Max?
102
00:05:35,299 --> 00:05:36,800
- Your way is not working, Nora.
103
00:05:37,259 --> 00:05:39,470
- Let's put it to a vote.
104
00:05:40,137 --> 00:05:43,724
All those in favor of me doing
this silly,
105
00:05:44,224 --> 00:05:46,810
likely momentary dating app.
106
00:05:51,023 --> 00:05:52,357
- All opposed?
107
00:05:55,277 --> 00:05:56,737
I'm gonna send over everything
you need to get started.
108
00:05:57,529 --> 00:05:58,697
Take 2 Heart would like to start
publishing articles
109
00:05:59,031 --> 00:05:59,698
by Wednesday.
110
00:06:00,115 --> 00:06:01,450
- That's two days!
111
00:06:02,117 --> 00:06:02,868
- Well, Christmas is only two
weeks away!
112
00:06:03,660 --> 00:06:05,287
Time is of the essence. I, for
one, am looking forward
113
00:06:06,038 --> 00:06:07,623
to seeing what you create. Come
on, Christine.
114
00:06:14,296 --> 00:06:15,839
(sighs)
115
00:06:16,173 --> 00:06:17,508
(chuckles)
116
00:06:18,967 --> 00:06:21,053
(soft music)
117
00:06:22,804 --> 00:06:25,224
The Take 2 Heart steps for
success.
118
00:06:25,599 --> 00:06:29,061
(joyful music)
119
00:06:29,895 --> 00:06:31,522
- Okay, so you just stand like,
right like that. Good?
120
00:06:32,272 --> 00:06:33,106
- You do realize I can't sing,
right?
121
00:06:33,607 --> 00:06:34,149
- That's okay, that's okay.
122
00:06:34,733 --> 00:06:35,609
Sandy will balance out the
altos.
123
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,153
You're just here to sort of
balance out visually.
124
00:06:38,612 --> 00:06:40,113
- Okay, thanks. Ugh...
125
00:06:40,781 --> 00:06:42,908
This Take 2 Heart thing is just
so much!
126
00:06:43,659 --> 00:06:45,953
Adley, they want me to stage my
own meet cute.
127
00:06:46,328 --> 00:06:47,579
That's insane!
128
00:06:48,330 --> 00:06:49,540
- Well, how else are you
supposed to fall in love?
129
00:06:50,123 --> 00:06:51,208
- I'm gonna write a great
article
130
00:06:51,917 --> 00:06:53,126
and make everyone think I'm
falling in love.
131
00:06:53,835 --> 00:06:55,254
I'm just gonna write it.
Nobody's gonna know.
132
00:06:56,046 --> 00:06:57,422
- Or you could actually put
yourself out there again.
133
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:58,924
- No. - Just saying.
134
00:06:59,633 --> 00:07:00,884
- What I need to do is I need to
find someone
135
00:07:01,385 --> 00:07:02,719
to fake fall in love with.
136
00:07:03,470 --> 00:07:04,888
- You seen a romantic comedy.
All you have to do
137
00:07:05,597 --> 00:07:07,015
is spill your hot cocoa on
someone, and boom,
138
00:07:07,766 --> 00:07:09,476
you got a meet cute. - Or a
second-degree burn.
139
00:07:09,935 --> 00:07:11,853
- Ah, shoot. It's Clark.
140
00:07:12,563 --> 00:07:13,981
He's just running things down at
the bakery.
141
00:07:14,398 --> 00:07:17,192
Hi, honey! Yeah. Oh.
142
00:07:17,484 --> 00:07:19,069
(sighs)
143
00:07:23,156 --> 00:07:26,285
- Hey, Reader, so I know it's
been a while
144
00:07:26,827 --> 00:07:31,582
but I think this is all insane
145
00:07:32,165 --> 00:07:33,709
and what did I get myself into?
146
00:07:34,126 --> 00:07:36,753
Ah! What am I doing?
147
00:07:39,673 --> 00:07:41,258
(light music)
148
00:07:46,888 --> 00:07:48,765
Okay, it's not real. None of
it's real.
149
00:07:49,224 --> 00:07:52,144
Just do the meet cute.
150
00:07:53,937 --> 00:07:56,565
Make the board happy and keep
your job
151
00:07:57,190 --> 00:07:58,984
from a whiny little nepo baby.
Hmm.
152
00:08:01,153 --> 00:08:03,614
Oh! Oh, I can't...oh...(sighs)
153
00:08:04,072 --> 00:08:08,076
(hands clap slowly)
154
00:08:09,494 --> 00:08:12,623
- Wow, I mean uh, that's... you
nailed that.
155
00:08:12,956 --> 00:08:14,291
- Excuse me?
156
00:08:14,666 --> 00:08:16,460
- That meet cute
157
00:08:17,127 --> 00:08:18,086
that you just tried to stage for
yourself?
158
00:08:18,754 --> 00:08:20,422
- I don't know what you're
talking about.
159
00:08:21,048 --> 00:08:21,965
- Right, no, it's a, it's a
classic.
160
00:08:22,633 --> 00:08:23,634
I've only ever seen it in
movies, though.
161
00:08:24,468 --> 00:08:25,135
I've never actually seen it in
real life.
162
00:08:25,886 --> 00:08:28,472
- Again, I don't know what
you're talking about.
163
00:08:29,222 --> 00:08:30,390
- So you were just trying to
pour piping hot cocoa
164
00:08:31,016 --> 00:08:32,059
on some poor, unsuspecting
stranger?
165
00:08:32,893 --> 00:08:36,355
That's... that's almost worse! -
No! It was... for work.
166
00:08:36,855 --> 00:08:39,358
(laughs) - Why is that funny?
167
00:08:39,900 --> 00:08:42,986
- No, I just... Ah, that's good.
168
00:08:43,654 --> 00:08:44,821
- Well, it's too bad I didn't
choose you.
169
00:08:45,447 --> 00:08:48,283
- Hmm, yeah. Yeah. Huge, huge
bummer.
170
00:08:50,077 --> 00:08:51,536
Look, whatever it is you were
trying to do meet someone there,
171
00:08:52,037 --> 00:08:54,206
I hope it works out for ya.
172
00:08:54,956 --> 00:08:58,627
- Okay, I wasn't. I wasn't
trying... I'm not...
173
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,254
Oh, whatever.
174
00:09:03,423 --> 00:09:04,966
- Is everything okay? - Oh.
175
00:09:05,509 --> 00:09:06,426
- What happened to you? (gasps)
176
00:09:06,802 --> 00:09:08,011
Wait, did you?
177
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,472
- Yeah. Yeah, I did, and it was
a huge fail.
178
00:09:11,056 --> 00:09:11,973
- Oh, by the way, (clears
throat)
179
00:09:12,724 --> 00:09:14,142
Lola wanted to come straight to
you from college,
180
00:09:14,768 --> 00:09:15,686
so would it be okay if you
brought her
181
00:09:16,478 --> 00:09:17,104
to dinner tonight? - Oh! Of
course,
182
00:09:17,813 --> 00:09:20,273
I can't wait to see her. - Okay,
great. Okay!
183
00:09:20,732 --> 00:09:22,651
- Okay. - It's go time.
184
00:09:23,110 --> 00:09:24,569
There you go, first page.
185
00:09:25,195 --> 00:09:26,029
- Hmm, well you remember I'm
miming.
186
00:09:26,321 --> 00:09:27,114
- Yes.
187
00:09:27,531 --> 00:09:28,782
■ A merry Christmas ■
188
00:09:29,366 --> 00:09:31,410
■ We wish you a merry Christmas
■
189
00:09:31,993 --> 00:09:33,704
■ We wish you a merry Christmas
■
190
00:09:34,329 --> 00:09:36,540
■ And a happy new year ■■
191
00:09:36,957 --> 00:09:37,749
(Lola): Hey, Nora?
192
00:09:39,376 --> 00:09:40,711
Hello? (Nora): Lola!
193
00:09:41,336 --> 00:09:42,170
I didn't hear you come in! -
Hey!
194
00:09:42,546 --> 00:09:43,714
(Nora laughs) Oh!
195
00:09:44,339 --> 00:09:46,174
- Oh, oh! - Okay, wait, wait,
wait.
196
00:09:46,842 --> 00:09:48,385
- I hope nothing in there was
breakable.
197
00:09:49,094 --> 00:09:51,430
(screaming excitedly) I missed
you so much!
198
00:09:52,055 --> 00:09:53,807
- I missed you too, aunt Nora.
Wait.
199
00:09:54,516 --> 00:09:55,976
So this thing with Take 2 Heart
seems cool.
200
00:09:56,268 --> 00:09:57,728
- What?
201
00:09:58,395 --> 00:10:00,397
- You dating, using their
program...
202
00:10:00,897 --> 00:10:02,733
- Wait, how do you know that?
203
00:10:03,483 --> 00:10:06,111
- Oh, I mean, it's all over the
socials.
204
00:10:06,737 --> 00:10:08,864
I was just looking at it. Right
here.
205
00:10:10,824 --> 00:10:11,742
- Huh!
206
00:10:12,409 --> 00:10:13,785
"Nora Winter trust Take 2 Heart
207
00:10:14,369 --> 00:10:15,287
to fall in love before
Christmas."
208
00:10:15,537 --> 00:10:16,538
Wow.
209
00:10:17,038 --> 00:10:18,540
- There's something wrong?
210
00:10:18,957 --> 00:10:21,042
- Uh... No, nothing.
211
00:10:21,543 --> 00:10:23,086
Okay, we should go. - Yes.
212
00:10:23,962 --> 00:10:25,714
- Your mom will not be thrilled
if we are late for dinner.
213
00:10:26,381 --> 00:10:28,049
- No, especially giving your
track record
214
00:10:28,884 --> 00:10:30,677
of family dinners recently. -
Okay, don't bring that up.
215
00:10:31,303 --> 00:10:31,970
I'll help you carry these
presents.
216
00:10:32,387 --> 00:10:33,764
- Okay. Thank you.
217
00:10:34,389 --> 00:10:36,016
- Oh! You got it? - Yep!
218
00:10:36,391 --> 00:10:37,768
(laughing softly)
219
00:10:38,477 --> 00:10:39,144
(Clark): Wait, you're doing
what?
220
00:10:39,895 --> 00:10:41,396
- It's called "How to Fall in
Love by Christmas".
221
00:10:41,938 --> 00:10:43,231
- That sounds like so much fun.
222
00:10:43,899 --> 00:10:44,900
And you've been so focused on
your work.
223
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:46,359
- You haven't dated anyone
224
00:10:46,985 --> 00:10:47,861
for like, as long as I can
remember.
225
00:10:48,403 --> 00:10:49,571
- I have been a tiny bit busy.
226
00:10:50,197 --> 00:10:50,989
- This will be really good for
you.
227
00:10:51,740 --> 00:10:52,991
Get you out of your shell, into
new experiences.
228
00:10:53,700 --> 00:10:55,076
- Yeah, and if you really do
fall in love--
229
00:10:55,744 --> 00:10:57,204
- Okay, it's just the name of
the series.
230
00:10:57,829 --> 00:10:59,664
- But it wouldn't be the worst
thing.
231
00:11:00,457 --> 00:11:01,833
I mean, just have a little fun,
sis. It's Christmas.
232
00:11:02,459 --> 00:11:04,920
- I saw the invites to the
fundraiser
233
00:11:05,337 --> 00:11:06,379
and they look great.
234
00:11:06,838 --> 00:11:08,256
- Well, Lola designed it.
235
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,802
- Oh. How's the foundation
doing?
236
00:11:12,427 --> 00:11:15,013
- Well, uh, the invites
237
00:11:15,639 --> 00:11:16,890
for the charity event all went
out.
238
00:11:17,349 --> 00:11:19,810
- What was that? - What?
239
00:11:20,143 --> 00:11:21,770
- That look?
240
00:11:22,187 --> 00:11:23,939
- There was no look.
241
00:11:24,606 --> 00:11:26,316
- Okay, you always play with
your earring
242
00:11:26,942 --> 00:11:27,818
when you're not telling the
truth.
243
00:11:28,568 --> 00:11:29,986
- Just tell her, Mom. - Tell me
what?
244
00:11:30,403 --> 00:11:31,446
(chuckles nervously)
245
00:11:32,030 --> 00:11:32,823
Well, I don't know if you've
seen
246
00:11:33,573 --> 00:11:34,407
the foundation's financial
report.
247
00:11:34,908 --> 00:11:36,743
- I have been preoccupied.
248
00:11:37,452 --> 00:11:40,831
- We've been a little
overextended this year
249
00:11:41,373 --> 00:11:42,499
and uh, you know,
250
00:11:43,124 --> 00:11:44,125
with the after school baking
classes.
251
00:11:44,709 --> 00:11:45,919
- And the free seniors'
programs.
252
00:11:46,711 --> 00:11:49,881
- And other charity donations,
we might be in the red.
253
00:11:50,340 --> 00:11:51,842
- How much in the red?
254
00:11:54,261 --> 00:11:56,388
- From what I've gathered,
redder than a poinsettia.
255
00:11:57,097 --> 00:12:00,267
- But we always find a way to
bounce back.
256
00:12:00,809 --> 00:12:02,477
And the bakery is humming along
257
00:12:03,103 --> 00:12:04,229
and I'm not gonna let this stop
us
258
00:12:04,855 --> 00:12:06,147
from making as much money as
possible
259
00:12:06,857 --> 00:12:08,859
at the charity fundraiser. -
Which we will.
260
00:12:09,150 --> 00:12:10,318
- Okay.
261
00:12:11,820 --> 00:12:14,030
So, your mom tells me
262
00:12:14,739 --> 00:12:15,866
that you have been taking a
patisserie class.
263
00:12:16,324 --> 00:12:17,868
- Oh my gosh! Yes! Yes!
264
00:12:18,285 --> 00:12:20,370
(soft music)
265
00:12:24,916 --> 00:12:26,918
- Okay, so cool news. Did you
see the photos
266
00:12:27,586 --> 00:12:28,587
from that recent billionaire's
space trip?
267
00:12:28,962 --> 00:12:30,589
Amazing, right?
268
00:12:31,256 --> 00:12:32,674
The guy who shot it just moved
to town,
269
00:12:33,174 --> 00:12:34,342
like literally just got here,
270
00:12:35,051 --> 00:12:36,887
and we hired him to photograph
this series.
271
00:12:37,220 --> 00:12:38,305
- What? Why?
272
00:12:39,055 --> 00:12:40,348
- Because his fans are a totally
different demo
273
00:12:41,182 --> 00:12:42,517
than the readers of Prism and
the users of Take 2 Heart,
274
00:12:43,268 --> 00:12:45,395
so it's kind of like this
perfect Venn diagram
275
00:12:45,979 --> 00:12:47,355
of new potential readers. -
Okay,
276
00:12:47,939 --> 00:12:48,899
do we really need a
photographer?
277
00:12:49,733 --> 00:12:51,359
I mean, I think my writing
speaks for itself.
278
00:12:52,152 --> 00:12:54,738
- No, not in this day and age of
short attention spans
279
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,823
and visual media. We need pics.
280
00:12:57,449 --> 00:12:59,326
But like cool, edgy, shareable
pics,
281
00:13:00,035 --> 00:13:01,286
that are likely to get stellar
impressions.
282
00:13:01,912 --> 00:13:02,913
Plus, Take 2 Heart wants to make
sure
283
00:13:03,413 --> 00:13:04,080
you're actually going for it
284
00:13:04,789 --> 00:13:05,916
and really holding up your end
of the bargain.
285
00:13:06,666 --> 00:13:07,500
Hey, uh Jack, can you come in
here, please?
286
00:13:08,335 --> 00:13:09,169
This photographer's incredible.
You're gonna love him.
287
00:13:09,461 --> 00:13:10,545
- Uh...
288
00:13:11,838 --> 00:13:13,673
(light music)
289
00:13:13,965 --> 00:13:15,133
- You.
290
00:13:15,467 --> 00:13:16,927
- And you.
291
00:13:17,427 --> 00:13:18,762
- You two know each other?
292
00:13:19,262 --> 00:13:20,597
- Uh, no. No, we-- - We met.
293
00:13:20,931 --> 00:13:21,973
Yesterday.
294
00:13:22,682 --> 00:13:23,934
When she tried to stage her own
meet cute.
295
00:13:24,809 --> 00:13:27,979
- Okay, no uh, we kinda met. We
didn't really meet, meet.
296
00:13:28,396 --> 00:13:29,981
- We definitely met.
297
00:13:30,357 --> 00:13:31,608
- What's my name?
298
00:13:32,108 --> 00:13:33,818
(sighs) See, we didn't meet.
299
00:13:34,235 --> 00:13:35,779
- What is your name?
300
00:13:36,196 --> 00:13:38,740
- Nora. - Ah, cute.
301
00:13:39,491 --> 00:13:42,410
- What a weird thing to say.
Especially to a CEO.
302
00:13:42,953 --> 00:13:45,038
- This is kinda stellar, right?
303
00:13:45,705 --> 00:13:46,957
You guys already have natural
chemistry.
304
00:13:47,666 --> 00:13:48,959
- Oh, no, no, we don't. - No, I
try
305
00:13:49,668 --> 00:13:51,294
to have chemistry with everyone
I meet, so.
306
00:13:51,795 --> 00:13:54,339
- Right. Uh, okay, so, Jack,
307
00:13:55,090 --> 00:13:57,092
you are going to capture Nora's
journey to love
308
00:13:57,717 --> 00:13:58,969
by showing the magic of the
season.
309
00:13:59,678 --> 00:14:02,931
People love love and people love
Christmas.
310
00:14:03,390 --> 00:14:05,225
People love Nora Winters.
311
00:14:05,976 --> 00:14:09,479
- I think that we should keep my
dates anonymous.
312
00:14:10,105 --> 00:14:11,982
I mean, if we keep the guys
anonymous
313
00:14:12,649 --> 00:14:13,984
then I think there's a higher
probability
314
00:14:14,859 --> 00:14:16,152
that I will make a connection
with someone
315
00:14:16,820 --> 00:14:19,155
who isn't dating me for the
wrong reason.
316
00:14:19,990 --> 00:14:21,825
- Yes, that is why we pay you
the big bucks. I dig it.
317
00:14:22,617 --> 00:14:25,286
Okay, so Jack you are going to
capture Nora's face,
318
00:14:25,829 --> 00:14:26,830
in that stellar style of yours,
319
00:14:27,497 --> 00:14:28,999
and keep the guys obscured and
anonymous.
320
00:14:29,416 --> 00:14:30,250
All right!
321
00:14:31,001 --> 00:14:33,294
I am very excited to see what
you two cook up.
322
00:14:34,004 --> 00:14:35,880
- Hmm, I'm free now. You wanna
get started?
323
00:14:36,256 --> 00:14:38,133
- Uh, yeah. Yes.
324
00:14:38,591 --> 00:14:41,261
I just, I have to um...
325
00:14:41,636 --> 00:14:44,014
Find my wallet.
326
00:14:44,681 --> 00:14:47,600
Uh, so I will see you back here
soon.
327
00:14:50,270 --> 00:14:52,230
- I got a signed Sammy Sosa
rookie card.
328
00:14:52,605 --> 00:14:54,274
You wanna see it?
329
00:14:54,607 --> 00:14:56,109
- Uh, sure.
330
00:14:57,444 --> 00:14:58,194
- What do I do?
331
00:14:58,778 --> 00:15:00,905
He saw me stage my own meet
cute.
332
00:15:01,614 --> 00:15:03,408
- You're blowing this way out of
proportion.
333
00:15:03,867 --> 00:15:06,244
- Adley, he slow clapped.
334
00:15:06,745 --> 00:15:07,454
- All right, it's not ideal.
335
00:15:11,041 --> 00:15:12,125
Oh shoot, I gotta run.
336
00:15:12,834 --> 00:15:14,586
Baking for the fundraiser is in
full swing.
337
00:15:15,253 --> 00:15:16,546
I love you. I'll talk to you
later, okay?
338
00:15:16,921 --> 00:15:19,174
- Oh. Ugh. Oh!
339
00:15:19,549 --> 00:15:21,885
- You find it?
340
00:15:22,302 --> 00:15:24,345
- My wallet. Uh...
341
00:15:24,888 --> 00:15:27,724
No, it's probably in my purse.
342
00:15:28,641 --> 00:15:32,228
We uh, have a lot of work to do.
We should probably get started.
343
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:33,480
- Sure.
344
00:15:34,731 --> 00:15:36,399
(jazzy music)
345
00:15:37,108 --> 00:15:38,985
- So, the way I see it, I will
meet someone,
346
00:15:39,611 --> 00:15:40,278
we will go on a few festive
dates,
347
00:15:40,987 --> 00:15:42,530
get in the holiday spirit, and
then we can end
348
00:15:43,323 --> 00:15:45,033
with this fundraiser that my
family does every year
349
00:15:45,950 --> 00:15:48,078
that benefits my mother's bakery
and her charitable foundation.
350
00:15:48,995 --> 00:15:51,956
The fundraiser could serve as
the climax to our column.
351
00:15:52,665 --> 00:15:54,501
Wrapping up our magical love
story with a bow,
352
00:15:54,918 --> 00:15:56,336
and call it a day.
353
00:15:56,878 --> 00:15:59,089
- I think that sounds perfect.
354
00:15:59,631 --> 00:16:01,091
Unrealistic, but perfect.
355
00:16:01,633 --> 00:16:02,759
- Perfect's what I'm going for.
356
00:16:03,301 --> 00:16:06,096
- Okay. We'll come back to that.
357
00:16:06,763 --> 00:16:08,681
Um, my vision for this series is
high art.
358
00:16:09,099 --> 00:16:10,350
Raw, alter-realism.
359
00:16:10,892 --> 00:16:13,144
- We need it to feel romantic.
360
00:16:13,770 --> 00:16:16,272
We want the reader to really
believe
361
00:16:16,898 --> 00:16:18,775
that I am actually falling in
love.
362
00:16:19,526 --> 00:16:21,528
- Do you plan on not actually
falling in love?
363
00:16:22,278 --> 00:16:23,738
- No one has to know. We just
need them to feel
364
00:16:24,197 --> 00:16:25,323
like I'm falling in love.
365
00:16:25,824 --> 00:16:27,575
- It feels a bit deceptive.
366
00:16:28,284 --> 00:16:32,122
- Think of it like writing
beautiful fiction.
367
00:16:32,956 --> 00:16:34,999
And now, the way I see the style
is say,
368
00:16:35,667 --> 00:16:38,294
frame it like a classic romance
movie.
369
00:16:38,962 --> 00:16:41,131
Give the people something
aspirational.
370
00:16:41,965 --> 00:16:44,676
- Hmm. We need real, not fake
aspiration.
371
00:16:45,135 --> 00:16:46,553
- Well, it's not fake.
372
00:16:47,262 --> 00:16:48,429
- But you just said you don't
actually plan
373
00:16:49,097 --> 00:16:51,015
to fall in love, which, for the
record,
374
00:16:51,474 --> 00:16:53,643
I don't support. (sighs)
375
00:16:54,352 --> 00:16:57,147
- So, I say we go in the
opposite direction.
376
00:16:57,647 --> 00:16:59,149
We go for drama, high impact.
377
00:16:59,941 --> 00:17:02,902
You put yourself out there, you
get hurt. Real. Raw.
378
00:17:03,570 --> 00:17:05,947
- You actually think I could
fall in love?
379
00:17:06,698 --> 00:17:07,991
- I think you have a better
chance at doing so
380
00:17:08,616 --> 00:17:09,576
if you come at it with an open
mind.
381
00:17:10,451 --> 00:17:11,828
I mean, what are you afraid of?
- I'm not afraid of anything.
382
00:17:12,453 --> 00:17:14,289
Except sharks. Uh, and storm
drains.
383
00:17:14,664 --> 00:17:16,583
- Right. So...
384
00:17:17,250 --> 00:17:20,920
We follow the "Back to Square
One" plan
385
00:17:21,588 --> 00:17:22,630
from Take 2 Heart and we should
be set.
386
00:17:23,006 --> 00:17:24,132
- What is that?
387
00:17:24,924 --> 00:17:26,176
- It's for people who wanna put
themselves out there
388
00:17:26,718 --> 00:17:27,635
but haven't dated in a while.
389
00:17:29,053 --> 00:17:30,388
- What makes you think I haven't
dated in a while?
390
00:17:31,806 --> 00:17:33,141
Oh.
391
00:17:33,474 --> 00:17:34,684
(chuckles)
392
00:17:35,476 --> 00:17:38,062
- Anyway, I-I have an idea.
Should we get started?
393
00:17:38,897 --> 00:17:42,192
- We are on a tight deadline but
I uh, am sure that I...
394
00:17:43,026 --> 00:17:45,028
Yes, I have back-to-back
meetings today
395
00:17:45,570 --> 00:17:46,654
so, how about tomorrow morning?
396
00:17:47,030 --> 00:17:48,781
- Great. - Great.
397
00:17:49,157 --> 00:17:50,200
- Fine. - Fine.
398
00:17:51,326 --> 00:17:52,202
(sighs)
399
00:17:52,744 --> 00:17:54,204
(joyful music)
400
00:17:54,621 --> 00:17:55,580
(cellphone chimes)
401
00:17:56,915 --> 00:17:58,625
- Hey, Sara.
402
00:18:00,877 --> 00:18:03,213
This is huge for both you and
the agency.
403
00:18:03,671 --> 00:18:05,298
- Yeah. Yeah, we'll see.
404
00:18:05,924 --> 00:18:07,175
Not sure how real this is gonna
be.
405
00:18:10,011 --> 00:18:11,554
on the proposed exhibition at
the Smithton White Gallery?
406
00:18:14,015 --> 00:18:16,601
with this announcement, I do
have some news.
407
00:18:17,101 --> 00:18:19,437
Prism's rival, Level Eleven,
408
00:18:22,899 --> 00:18:24,317
- Why?
409
00:18:25,109 --> 00:18:26,819
- Because they're super
competitive with each other.
410
00:18:27,654 --> 00:18:29,614
And Level Eleven is looking to
bring on someone full time.
411
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,366
Ever since they saw the post
about you
412
00:18:31,866 --> 00:18:32,825
working with Nora Winters,
413
00:18:33,451 --> 00:18:34,702
they have been chomping at the
bit.
414
00:18:35,286 --> 00:18:36,371
You crush this and you could
have
415
00:18:37,038 --> 00:18:38,039
more offers than you know what
to do with.
416
00:18:38,873 --> 00:18:41,209
- Then maybe Smithton White will
give us a second look.
417
00:18:42,794 --> 00:18:44,087
I will follow up with them soon.
418
00:18:49,801 --> 00:18:53,054
(soft music)
419
00:18:55,390 --> 00:18:56,975
- "Dear Reader,
420
00:18:57,725 --> 00:19:02,313
Christmas is the most wonderful
time of the year.
421
00:19:02,772 --> 00:19:06,859
But what if it was also
422
00:19:07,485 --> 00:19:10,822
the most wonderful time of the
year
423
00:19:11,197 --> 00:19:13,408
to fall in love?"
424
00:19:13,700 --> 00:19:14,909
Blech.
425
00:19:16,369 --> 00:19:19,122
Stay tuned to see
426
00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:22,792
if the holiday meet cute
427
00:19:23,084 --> 00:19:24,711
is true
428
00:19:25,128 --> 00:19:29,173
or a work of fiction.
429
00:19:32,260 --> 00:19:34,012
(sighs)
430
00:19:34,345 --> 00:19:36,639
(soft music)
431
00:19:38,933 --> 00:19:40,310
(Nora sighs)
432
00:19:45,523 --> 00:19:46,899
Well, just --
433
00:19:47,275 --> 00:19:48,318
(elevator chimes)
434
00:19:51,654 --> 00:19:54,657
You're late. - Oh, time is just
a construct.
435
00:19:55,408 --> 00:19:57,744
- And infuriating. - One of my
better qualities.
436
00:19:58,244 --> 00:20:00,330
- Right. - Look, I'm sorry.
437
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:01,956
My nephew is staying with me for
the holidays.
438
00:20:02,373 --> 00:20:03,333
He lost his shoes.
439
00:20:03,875 --> 00:20:05,376
(scoffs) - Anyway, you're right.
440
00:20:06,044 --> 00:20:07,503
I should've let you know I was
running,
441
00:20:08,004 --> 00:20:09,297
literally, running behind.
442
00:20:09,589 --> 00:20:11,174
- Hmm.
443
00:20:11,841 --> 00:20:14,302
- Name's Kyle. He's my
half-sister's son.
444
00:20:14,719 --> 00:20:15,595
He loses everything.
445
00:20:16,220 --> 00:20:17,430
Do you wanna know where his shoe
was?
446
00:20:18,097 --> 00:20:20,099
On the ceiling fan. How does a
5th grader
447
00:20:20,850 --> 00:20:21,893
get his shoe on a ceiling fan in
the first place?
448
00:20:22,435 --> 00:20:24,771
- Okay, I believe you. Kind of.
449
00:20:25,229 --> 00:20:27,357
Let's go. - After you.
450
00:20:28,608 --> 00:20:30,735
(light music)
451
00:20:33,654 --> 00:20:36,240
- This is the surprise? I love
this place.
452
00:20:36,741 --> 00:20:37,742
- You've been here before?
453
00:20:38,368 --> 00:20:39,577
Well, then it doesn't fit the
brief.
454
00:20:40,203 --> 00:20:41,454
- Oh, I think it's perfect. -
Huh.
455
00:20:41,913 --> 00:20:43,664
Let the mingling begin.
456
00:20:43,998 --> 00:20:45,500
(jazzy music)
457
00:20:47,919 --> 00:20:51,381
- And you have how many cats?
458
00:20:51,839 --> 00:20:54,717
(camera shutter snaps)
459
00:20:55,426 --> 00:20:58,221
- Uh no, I-I don't think I could
see myself
460
00:20:58,846 --> 00:21:00,640
living in a bunker full time.
Hmm.
461
00:21:01,099 --> 00:21:02,392
(camera shutter snaps)
462
00:21:02,934 --> 00:21:05,395
And that's um...
463
00:21:05,853 --> 00:21:06,938
whose hair?
464
00:21:07,188 --> 00:21:10,608
(■■)
465
00:21:13,069 --> 00:21:15,363
This isn't working. - I don't
disagree with you.
466
00:21:15,863 --> 00:21:16,948
How many times have you been
467
00:21:17,615 --> 00:21:18,574
at this Christmas market over
the years?
468
00:21:19,033 --> 00:21:21,160
- Quite a few. - Exactly.
469
00:21:21,661 --> 00:21:22,495
The Take 2 Heart step says
470
00:21:23,162 --> 00:21:24,247
to meet someone outside your
comfort zone.
471
00:21:25,123 --> 00:21:27,208
This is, well, it seems to be
well within your comfort zone.
472
00:21:27,708 --> 00:21:29,001
- You think that's the reason
473
00:21:29,585 --> 00:21:30,878
that I'm not meeting anybody
here.
474
00:21:31,754 --> 00:21:34,257
- I think you're not following
the instructions on the app.
475
00:21:35,007 --> 00:21:36,342
Look, I know you said you're
gonna write fiction
476
00:21:37,093 --> 00:21:38,594
but isn't fiction better if it's
based in reality
477
00:21:39,011 --> 00:21:40,430
just a little bit?
478
00:21:41,013 --> 00:21:42,432
- What would you suggest?
479
00:21:42,849 --> 00:21:45,143
(soft rhythmic music)
480
00:21:49,397 --> 00:21:52,942
- Ha, I didn't know they had
skating in here.
481
00:21:53,568 --> 00:21:55,445
This is the same place that my
family
482
00:21:56,154 --> 00:21:57,780
holds their Christmas fundraiser
every year.
483
00:21:58,406 --> 00:22:00,533
- Okay. We need a new place. -
Oh, no.
484
00:22:00,992 --> 00:22:02,493
No, I can confidently say
485
00:22:03,202 --> 00:22:05,121
that skating is outside of my
comfort zone.
486
00:22:05,788 --> 00:22:07,081
- Perfect. And the light's great
in here.
487
00:22:07,790 --> 00:22:09,250
Well, go rent some skates and
get out there.
488
00:22:10,042 --> 00:22:11,335
You only have a few days left to
fall in love, right?
489
00:22:11,627 --> 00:22:12,837
- Uh-huh.
490
00:22:13,963 --> 00:22:16,466
(■■)
491
00:22:19,594 --> 00:22:22,054
- Are you gonna be okay?
492
00:22:22,847 --> 00:22:26,434
- Yeah. Yeah, just uh, ha, need
to get my sea legs.
493
00:22:26,726 --> 00:22:27,852
- Huh.
494
00:22:28,227 --> 00:22:30,688
(rhythmic music)
495
00:22:36,194 --> 00:22:38,571
(Nora): I got this. Ha. - You
sure?
496
00:22:38,988 --> 00:22:41,199
- Just get your shot.
497
00:22:41,449 --> 00:22:44,160
(■■)
498
00:22:44,702 --> 00:22:47,121
Huh, you've got great technique.
499
00:22:47,580 --> 00:22:48,039
(camera shutter snaps)
500
00:22:48,456 --> 00:22:49,540
(indistinct chatter)
501
00:22:51,083 --> 00:22:52,168
(sighs)
502
00:22:53,836 --> 00:22:56,005
(■■)
503
00:22:56,631 --> 00:22:59,717
Hey, those are some serious
skates.
504
00:23:00,134 --> 00:23:01,385
- I totally agree.
505
00:23:03,095 --> 00:23:05,264
- Are they custom? - Yes.
506
00:23:05,806 --> 00:23:07,975
- Oh, neat. Where'd you get 'em?
507
00:23:08,267 --> 00:23:09,519
- Uh-huh.
508
00:23:10,102 --> 00:23:11,020
I'll meet you guys later.
509
00:23:11,312 --> 00:23:12,939
(sighs)
510
00:23:15,775 --> 00:23:17,527
Oh! - Oh!
511
00:23:18,486 --> 00:23:21,531
- Oh, I'm... I'm so sorry. - No,
it's fine. Are you okay?
512
00:23:22,073 --> 00:23:23,908
- I am. - Great.
513
00:23:24,242 --> 00:23:26,911
(light music)
514
00:23:27,411 --> 00:23:30,706
Ooh! Sorry. - Ooh! I got you.
515
00:23:32,124 --> 00:23:33,543
(camera shutter snaps)
516
00:23:34,085 --> 00:23:35,086
(Nora): Oh, we're doing good.
517
00:23:36,504 --> 00:23:37,630
Thanks for skating with me.
518
00:23:38,339 --> 00:23:40,550
(Steve): It's not bad. (camera
shutter snaps)
519
00:23:42,802 --> 00:23:44,804
(laughs)
520
00:23:45,304 --> 00:23:47,098
- That was surprisingly fun.
521
00:23:47,682 --> 00:23:49,559
I'd love to do it again
sometime.
522
00:23:50,226 --> 00:23:51,811
- Well, I'm actually seeing
someone.
523
00:23:52,311 --> 00:23:54,564
So, have a merry Christmas.
524
00:23:57,358 --> 00:24:00,152
(Jack): Well, that could've gone
better.
525
00:24:00,570 --> 00:24:02,572
- Yeah, right? Ouch.
526
00:24:03,656 --> 00:24:06,158
- Yeah, he was never into you. -
Why did he skate with me then?
527
00:24:06,826 --> 00:24:07,994
- 'Cause he was just trying to
be nice.
528
00:24:08,452 --> 00:24:09,579
You were kinda desperate.
529
00:24:10,037 --> 00:24:11,247
- I am not desperate.
530
00:24:12,748 --> 00:24:14,250
I'm not that desperate.
531
00:24:14,750 --> 00:24:16,544
- But the photos look great.
532
00:24:17,253 --> 00:24:19,046
I'm gonna grab something from
the snack bar.
533
00:24:19,505 --> 00:24:20,673
You want anything? - No.
534
00:24:21,299 --> 00:24:22,508
I'm just gonna return these
skates.
535
00:24:22,967 --> 00:24:24,176
I'll meet you back here.
536
00:24:27,054 --> 00:24:30,725
(light music)
537
00:24:32,518 --> 00:24:34,312
- Is this seat taken?
538
00:24:34,937 --> 00:24:37,106
- Oh, no not taken in the
slightest.
539
00:24:40,735 --> 00:24:42,069
- Have you been here before?
540
00:24:42,695 --> 00:24:45,239
- Uh, first time. You? - First
time.
541
00:24:45,906 --> 00:24:47,783
- Yeah, not as brave as I was as
a kid.
542
00:24:48,367 --> 00:24:50,494
- Right? - Yeah. Fear of
falling.
543
00:24:50,953 --> 00:24:52,705
- None at all. - Oh, no.
544
00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:54,206
(both laugh)
545
00:24:55,541 --> 00:24:56,626
- Leo.
546
00:24:57,209 --> 00:24:59,920
- Oh, uh, Nora. Nice to meet
you.
547
00:25:05,384 --> 00:25:06,636
- This might sound a little
crazy,
548
00:25:07,136 --> 00:25:11,140
but it's the holidays, right?
549
00:25:11,807 --> 00:25:13,684
Would you like to get a drink
sometime?
550
00:25:16,103 --> 00:25:17,647
- That doesn't sound crazy at
all.
551
00:25:18,189 --> 00:25:19,815
Um, I would love that.
552
00:25:22,276 --> 00:25:23,819
My number's on the back.
553
00:25:24,528 --> 00:25:27,657
Um, just text me and we'll set
something up.
554
00:25:28,366 --> 00:25:30,660
- Cool. It was nice to meet you.
555
00:25:31,285 --> 00:25:32,662
- Nice to meet you too, Leo.
556
00:25:35,164 --> 00:25:36,832
Ah!
557
00:25:37,458 --> 00:25:39,418
- Now, that's what I'm talking
about.
558
00:25:40,044 --> 00:25:42,296
- Oh! What? - Is that him
already?
559
00:25:42,755 --> 00:25:43,673
Ah, that's a good sign.
560
00:25:44,382 --> 00:25:47,259
- Yeah, he asked me out for
tomorrow.
561
00:25:47,885 --> 00:25:49,929
- Great! Still think you need
backup.
562
00:25:50,388 --> 00:25:52,264
- What? Why? He just...
563
00:25:52,682 --> 00:25:53,683
He just asked me out.
564
00:25:54,433 --> 00:25:57,103
- You need insurance this series
will work, right?
565
00:25:57,436 --> 00:25:59,563
So, humor me.
566
00:26:00,064 --> 00:26:01,691
A former colleague of mine
567
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:03,275
is having a Christmas mixer
tonight.
568
00:26:03,734 --> 00:26:05,444
Come by, have a drink.
569
00:26:06,070 --> 00:26:07,697
Meet someone who could be your
backup
570
00:26:08,614 --> 00:26:11,409
in case option one here isn't
actually the one.
571
00:26:12,076 --> 00:26:15,037
- Okay, well, I don't believe in
the one.
572
00:26:15,830 --> 00:26:17,832
- Says the woman famous for
writing a dating column.
573
00:26:18,082 --> 00:26:19,834
Huh.
574
00:26:20,292 --> 00:26:22,002
I'll pick you up at 8:00.
575
00:26:22,378 --> 00:26:24,714
(gentle music)
576
00:26:31,971 --> 00:26:33,639
- Dear Reader,
577
00:26:34,098 --> 00:26:36,726
I am surprised to report
578
00:26:37,435 --> 00:26:41,731
that the holiday meet cute might
have worked.
579
00:26:43,315 --> 00:26:46,736
I met someone out of my comfort
zone.
580
00:26:48,487 --> 00:26:51,741
We'll call him Mr. L.
581
00:26:52,450 --> 00:26:56,495
Will he be the romantic
connection
582
00:26:57,246 --> 00:26:59,373
that this writer is seeking this
holiday season,
583
00:26:59,707 --> 00:27:02,460
or will he be
584
00:27:03,169 --> 00:27:06,380
the proverbial lump of coal in
my stocking?
585
00:27:06,714 --> 00:27:08,632
(chuckles)
586
00:27:12,136 --> 00:27:13,721
(Olivia):
587
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,058
- It's going fine. I mean,
you've signed the kid up
588
00:27:18,934 --> 00:27:20,770
for enough holiday activities to
fill his whole winter break.
589
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:22,688
- Well, that's the idea to keep
him entertained
590
00:27:23,022 --> 00:27:23,981
and you sane.
591
00:27:24,732 --> 00:27:26,108
I know how hard it can be moving
to a new city.
592
00:27:26,859 --> 00:27:28,694
- And how are things at the
hospital, Superwoman?
593
00:27:29,195 --> 00:27:31,447
- Chaotic and short-staffed.
594
00:27:32,072 --> 00:27:33,407
- Well, they're lucky to have
you.
595
00:27:34,033 --> 00:27:34,658
- Oh, I'm sorry. They're paging
me.
596
00:27:35,117 --> 00:27:35,951
I gotta run. But um...
597
00:27:36,577 --> 00:27:37,828
I'm gonna text you my Christmas
plans
598
00:27:38,537 --> 00:27:39,705
and I'll let you know if I can
make it, okay?
599
00:27:40,247 --> 00:27:41,624
- Sounds good. - I love ya, bye.
600
00:27:42,416 --> 00:27:44,210
(joyful music)
601
00:27:48,047 --> 00:27:50,216
(sighs)
602
00:27:52,426 --> 00:27:53,552
(Adley chuckles) - What?
603
00:27:54,220 --> 00:27:55,805
- Did you forget how to roll out
dough?
604
00:27:56,639 --> 00:27:58,766
- It's been a while since
rolling dough
605
00:27:59,391 --> 00:28:00,226
is part of my day-to-day
activities.
606
00:28:00,643 --> 00:28:02,061
- Uh-huh, I can tell.
607
00:28:02,645 --> 00:28:04,939
So, I went online and I saw
Jack,
608
00:28:05,314 --> 00:28:06,816
and he is cute!
609
00:28:07,149 --> 00:28:08,734
And single.
610
00:28:09,443 --> 00:28:11,487
- And mildly infuriating and
full of himself.
611
00:28:12,238 --> 00:28:14,824
- But I saw the post. You said
you met someone.
612
00:28:15,324 --> 00:28:17,827
- Yeah, in theory.
613
00:28:18,536 --> 00:28:19,870
As long as the board and Take 2
Heart
614
00:28:20,496 --> 00:28:21,831
believe I'm really falling in
love,
615
00:28:22,665 --> 00:28:23,874
who cares if I fluff it up a
little bit.
616
00:28:24,708 --> 00:28:26,585
They want a good story, I'm
gonna give 'em a good story.
617
00:28:27,086 --> 00:28:28,462
(cellphone vibrating) Ugh.
618
00:28:29,004 --> 00:28:31,131
Hey, Max, what can I do for you?
619
00:28:31,882 --> 00:28:33,592
- Take 2 Heart just sent notes
on your article.
620
00:28:34,301 --> 00:28:36,262
That roller rink bit, that was
cute, on brand,
621
00:28:36,971 --> 00:28:38,347
and they loved that fail with
the first guy.
622
00:28:40,391 --> 00:28:42,101
But they do have some tweaks.
623
00:28:42,476 --> 00:28:44,061
- Oh, do they?
624
00:28:47,147 --> 00:28:48,607
I know that you and I don't
always see eye to eye,
625
00:28:49,108 --> 00:28:50,526
but I am on your team here.
626
00:29:00,911 --> 00:29:01,871
and for the crossover of users
to happen,
627
00:29:02,496 --> 00:29:02,955
I need to know what you're
feeling.
628
00:29:03,455 --> 00:29:04,290
Not just what's happening.
629
00:29:08,085 --> 00:29:09,837
Give me the old Nora Winters.
630
00:29:10,254 --> 00:29:12,381
Okay? I gotta bounce.
631
00:29:12,631 --> 00:29:14,717
- Oh.
632
00:29:15,134 --> 00:29:16,218
- I agree with him.
633
00:29:17,052 --> 00:29:19,430
I think you really gotta open up
if this is gonna work.
634
00:29:20,055 --> 00:29:20,890
- How many of these snowmen
cookie
635
00:29:21,348 --> 00:29:21,849
do we have to make?
636
00:29:22,391 --> 00:29:23,142
- For the fundraiser, about 100.
637
00:29:23,434 --> 00:29:24,393
- Hmm.
638
00:29:25,019 --> 00:29:25,769
- What, are you getting soft on
me?
639
00:29:26,395 --> 00:29:28,564
- I admit, I am a bit out of
practice.
640
00:29:28,939 --> 00:29:31,817
(rhythmic music)
641
00:29:38,490 --> 00:29:39,575
(Jack): Hey, guys! - Hi!
642
00:29:39,867 --> 00:29:40,326
- Hey!
643
00:29:40,701 --> 00:29:42,578
(scoffs) - Uh.
644
00:29:42,828 --> 00:29:43,954
- Oh!
645
00:29:44,371 --> 00:29:46,415
- Hey, how you doing?
646
00:29:46,790 --> 00:29:48,375
(phone buzzes)
647
00:29:54,632 --> 00:29:55,716
(cellphone chimes)
648
00:29:56,091 --> 00:29:57,509
(clicks tongue)
649
00:29:59,261 --> 00:30:00,930
(exhales)
650
00:30:01,764 --> 00:30:03,223
Hey, uh, I just need to do a
quick lap.
651
00:30:03,807 --> 00:30:05,559
- Uh, sure, yeah. Yeah.
Whatever.
652
00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:07,937
Do you whatever you need to do.
- Are you sure?
653
00:30:08,979 --> 00:30:09,939
I just don't wanna bail on you
since you don't know anyone.
654
00:30:10,522 --> 00:30:11,941
- You're not bailing. Not at
all.
655
00:30:15,152 --> 00:30:17,196
- Why are you acting weird? -
I'm not acting weird.
656
00:30:17,696 --> 00:30:20,240
Not, not me, no. Not weird.
657
00:30:20,532 --> 00:30:21,784
- Okay.
658
00:30:22,201 --> 00:30:23,494
Meet back here in 20?
659
00:30:23,911 --> 00:30:25,454
- 10-4, good buddy.
660
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,957
(chuckles) - Yeah, that was
weird.
661
00:30:35,255 --> 00:30:36,966
(light music)
662
00:31:00,614 --> 00:31:03,993
- Oh! Oh, I'm so sorry.
663
00:31:04,660 --> 00:31:07,538
Um, I-I didn't know anybody was
in here.
664
00:31:07,913 --> 00:31:09,415
- I'm Geoffrey.
665
00:31:09,748 --> 00:31:11,166
(soft music)
666
00:31:11,458 --> 00:31:13,085
- Nora.
667
00:31:13,419 --> 00:31:15,045
(chuckles)
668
00:31:18,382 --> 00:31:20,050
- And I never played another
game
669
00:31:20,592 --> 00:31:21,802
of mini golf again in my life.
670
00:31:22,136 --> 00:31:23,345
(both laugh)
671
00:31:23,971 --> 00:31:25,014
It just flew right out of his
hands.
672
00:31:25,431 --> 00:31:26,098
It was incredible.
673
00:31:26,432 --> 00:31:27,933
(laughing)
674
00:31:28,308 --> 00:31:29,560
(gentle music)
675
00:31:29,893 --> 00:31:31,979
(chuckling)
676
00:31:32,479 --> 00:31:33,731
(cellphone chimes) Excuse me.
677
00:31:35,149 --> 00:31:38,027
Uh, I am so sorry.
678
00:31:38,527 --> 00:31:40,654
I'm gonna have to go. - Okay.
679
00:31:41,363 --> 00:31:43,032
- But I would love to take you
out sometime.
680
00:31:43,574 --> 00:31:45,409
You know, if you'd like.
681
00:31:45,826 --> 00:31:47,619
- I would love that.
682
00:31:48,370 --> 00:31:51,206
Have you ever been to Gregson's
Christmas Market?
683
00:31:51,707 --> 00:31:54,376
- No. But it sounds magical.
684
00:31:54,710 --> 00:31:56,503
- Oh, it is.
685
00:31:56,837 --> 00:31:58,088
(chuckles)
686
00:31:58,547 --> 00:31:59,673
(camera shutter snaps)
687
00:32:00,632 --> 00:32:02,051
(Nora laughs)
688
00:32:04,470 --> 00:32:06,972
(jazzy music) (indistinct
chatter)
689
00:32:07,681 --> 00:32:10,434
- It is so nice to meet you. -
Oh, you too.
690
00:32:10,768 --> 00:32:12,102
(chuckles)
691
00:32:14,021 --> 00:32:15,064
(sighs happily)
692
00:32:16,190 --> 00:32:17,983
Jack.
693
00:32:18,233 --> 00:32:19,485
Jack!
694
00:32:19,860 --> 00:32:21,528
- Oh, excuse me.
695
00:32:22,029 --> 00:32:23,405
So, it looks like you found
696
00:32:24,114 --> 00:32:26,075
a very photogenic insurance
policy, I see.
697
00:32:26,700 --> 00:32:28,744
(Nora): Oh, aren't you sneaky.
698
00:32:29,453 --> 00:32:31,330
That's fantastic. We can
definitely use that.
699
00:32:31,955 --> 00:32:33,415
Which leads me to, I should go
home.
700
00:32:34,166 --> 00:32:37,044
- I'll walk you. - I am all the
way across town.
701
00:32:37,503 --> 00:32:39,088
- Ah, I love the subway.
702
00:32:39,463 --> 00:32:40,464
- Okay.
703
00:32:41,757 --> 00:32:43,675
(soft music)
704
00:32:44,301 --> 00:32:46,095
(Jack): So, this fundraiser
thing.
705
00:32:46,762 --> 00:32:48,555
- Oh, well, my parents started
it, um,
706
00:32:49,264 --> 00:32:51,642
to raise money to give back to
the community.
707
00:32:52,309 --> 00:32:54,269
Uh, they offered all these free
programs,
708
00:32:54,937 --> 00:32:58,941
baking lessons for kids, senior
events.
709
00:32:59,399 --> 00:33:00,275
And so now, my sister,
710
00:33:00,901 --> 00:33:03,237
she still does the thing once a
year,
711
00:33:03,862 --> 00:33:05,656
and the funds that they raise,
well,
712
00:33:06,323 --> 00:33:08,283
it pretty much covers the whole
thing.
713
00:33:09,034 --> 00:33:11,662
I used to be really involved but
as Prism grew,
714
00:33:12,204 --> 00:33:13,997
I just couldn't juggle it all.
715
00:33:14,706 --> 00:33:16,959
- Sounds important. Look, I have
some ideas
716
00:33:17,543 --> 00:33:18,210
for dates that I wanna run by
you
717
00:33:18,961 --> 00:33:20,129
and I think they're fully Take 2
Heart approved.
718
00:33:22,131 --> 00:33:24,133
How about bowling?
719
00:33:24,424 --> 00:33:25,884
(laughs)
720
00:33:26,135 --> 00:33:27,136
- No.
721
00:33:28,011 --> 00:33:30,097
I do not think bowling is on
brand for Prism.
722
00:33:30,806 --> 00:33:33,809
How about... volunteering at a
soup kitchen?
723
00:33:34,226 --> 00:33:35,686
- Ugh, terrible idea.
724
00:33:36,270 --> 00:33:37,771
But I do fully support the
cause.
725
00:33:38,438 --> 00:33:40,190
- Hmm. - What about Christmas
karaoke?
726
00:33:40,566 --> 00:33:42,776
- Absolutely not.
727
00:33:43,068 --> 00:33:44,903
(sighs)
728
00:33:45,612 --> 00:33:47,573
We are gonna have to settle this
like adults.
729
00:33:47,906 --> 00:33:50,075
- All right.
730
00:33:50,367 --> 00:33:51,577
(laughs)
731
00:33:51,994 --> 00:33:52,911
- That's your version
732
00:33:53,537 --> 00:33:54,496
of settling something like an
adult?
733
00:33:55,122 --> 00:33:57,166
- Yeah. Isn't it yours? - On
three?
734
00:33:57,624 --> 00:33:58,458
- On three.
735
00:33:58,876 --> 00:34:00,460
- One, two, three.
736
00:34:00,836 --> 00:34:02,421
A-ha! (chuckles)
737
00:34:03,046 --> 00:34:04,673
Christmas market it is. It's
festive,
738
00:34:05,382 --> 00:34:07,301
it has amazing lighting, so
you'll like that.
739
00:34:08,051 --> 00:34:09,178
Plus, we already know our way
around the place.
740
00:34:09,761 --> 00:34:10,512
It'll be the perfect date.
741
00:34:11,930 --> 00:34:13,932
This is me.
742
00:34:14,266 --> 00:34:16,351
(soft music)
743
00:34:16,894 --> 00:34:19,188
Thank you for getting me home.
744
00:34:19,688 --> 00:34:21,565
- Happy to.
745
00:34:22,232 --> 00:34:24,359
- Meet me tomorrow morning at
the bakery?
746
00:34:24,776 --> 00:34:26,445
- Sounds like a plan.
747
00:34:31,491 --> 00:34:35,204
(■■)
748
00:34:37,664 --> 00:34:39,208
- Who is that?
749
00:34:39,833 --> 00:34:41,084
- That's a woman I'm working
with.
750
00:34:41,460 --> 00:34:42,044
- She's pretty.
751
00:34:42,336 --> 00:34:44,213
I like...
752
00:34:44,630 --> 00:34:46,256
That one.
753
00:34:46,757 --> 00:34:49,051
- Yeah, me too, little man.
754
00:34:49,551 --> 00:34:51,220
- Can I call Mom before bed?
755
00:34:52,012 --> 00:34:53,680
- Oof, she's probably still at
work
756
00:34:54,181 --> 00:34:55,098
but we can give her a try.
757
00:34:55,599 --> 00:34:57,017
- Adults are always at work.
758
00:34:59,228 --> 00:35:00,938
- How about this?
759
00:35:01,688 --> 00:35:03,190
I have to visit a Christmas tree
farm tomorrow.
760
00:35:03,941 --> 00:35:05,359
What do you say you play hooky
and come with me?
761
00:35:06,109 --> 00:35:07,319
We could even start the day with
all you can eat
762
00:35:07,778 --> 00:35:08,862
pancakes at the diner.
763
00:35:09,780 --> 00:35:11,448
All right.
764
00:35:13,575 --> 00:35:16,119
(soft music)
765
00:35:21,416 --> 00:35:23,961
(lips smacking) - Dear reader,
766
00:35:24,670 --> 00:35:28,590
this writer can confirm for you
that, yes,
767
00:35:29,299 --> 00:35:34,221
people are way more willing to
be open to you
768
00:35:34,930 --> 00:35:38,976
if you put yourself out of your
comfort zone.
769
00:35:39,559 --> 00:35:43,522
But is it the holiday season
or...
770
00:35:44,022 --> 00:35:47,234
is it just that I am finally
771
00:35:47,943 --> 00:35:49,486
putting myself out there for the
first time
772
00:35:49,903 --> 00:35:52,781
in a very long time?
773
00:35:54,533 --> 00:35:55,784
Hmm.
774
00:36:00,664 --> 00:36:01,999
(cellphone pings)
775
00:36:04,710 --> 00:36:05,627
(cellphone chimes)
776
00:36:09,339 --> 00:36:10,382
(sighs)
777
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:12,843
(bell on door jingles)
778
00:36:14,303 --> 00:36:17,014
- So, I have a plan. - Okay.
779
00:36:17,514 --> 00:36:19,308
- I might have told everyone
780
00:36:20,225 --> 00:36:21,393
that you were working with the
space photographer guy
781
00:36:22,060 --> 00:36:23,854
and that he's gonna be at the
fundraiser.
782
00:36:24,646 --> 00:36:26,690
And that Prism is gonna do a
write-up on the bakery.
783
00:36:27,482 --> 00:36:30,277
And that if people come to the
Christmas charity event
784
00:36:30,902 --> 00:36:32,821
that they could maybe get a
chance
785
00:36:33,363 --> 00:36:35,699
to be featured in your column.
786
00:36:36,241 --> 00:36:38,243
- Well, that is not a bad plan,
787
00:36:39,077 --> 00:36:41,204
I just wish you'd asked me
before you told the whole town.
788
00:36:41,705 --> 00:36:43,332
(Jack): Okay, yes, thank you.
789
00:36:44,207 --> 00:36:46,335
And if anything changes, please
just let us know.
790
00:36:46,835 --> 00:36:50,047
- Hey. Hi! You must be Kyle.
791
00:36:50,547 --> 00:36:51,965
I'm Nora. Nice to meet you.
792
00:36:52,674 --> 00:36:55,510
- Hi. And you must be Jack, the
famed Jack.
793
00:36:56,261 --> 00:36:57,429
- Uncle Jack and I went for
pancakes this morning
794
00:36:58,096 --> 00:36:59,348
before the apartment went under
water.
795
00:36:59,806 --> 00:37:01,266
- What?
796
00:37:02,017 --> 00:37:04,311
- It was a small leak turned
into a literal flood.
797
00:37:05,020 --> 00:37:06,188
Yeah, we don't know when we can
get back in.
798
00:37:07,022 --> 00:37:09,024
And I am currently on the hunt
for a hotel room for us,
799
00:37:09,566 --> 00:37:10,359
but as it's close to Christmas--
800
00:37:11,068 --> 00:37:12,277
- You can stay with us. - Adley.
801
00:37:12,944 --> 00:37:14,196
- What? I mean, we're just up
the road
802
00:37:14,988 --> 00:37:16,907
and we've got plenty of room at
the metaphorical inn.
803
00:37:17,616 --> 00:37:19,159
- Do you have a Christmas tree?
- A big one.
804
00:37:19,743 --> 00:37:22,371
- I'm sure they have other
offers.
805
00:37:22,913 --> 00:37:24,414
- Well, actually, we don't.
806
00:37:24,915 --> 00:37:26,958
- Uncle Jack, can we? Please?
807
00:37:27,459 --> 00:37:28,960
- From what I've read online,
808
00:37:29,628 --> 00:37:30,837
you're relatively new to the
city, so...
809
00:37:31,296 --> 00:37:32,464
- Are you a stalker now?
810
00:37:32,923 --> 00:37:34,091
- I am new to the city
811
00:37:34,716 --> 00:37:35,967
and my family's all out west,
so...
812
00:37:36,635 --> 00:37:37,427
- No one should be without their
family
813
00:37:37,844 --> 00:37:38,887
during the holidays.
814
00:37:39,262 --> 00:37:40,680
I insist. Okay?
815
00:37:41,473 --> 00:37:43,266
Plus, I could use some help
baking cookies for Santa.
816
00:37:43,975 --> 00:37:45,894
It was very nice to meet you,
Kyle and Jack.
817
00:37:46,686 --> 00:37:48,980
Nora will give you my address
and I'll see you soon.
818
00:37:51,108 --> 00:37:53,402
- Well, your sister is very
generous.
819
00:37:53,777 --> 00:37:55,987
- That she is.
820
00:37:56,321 --> 00:37:57,656
We should go.
821
00:38:02,744 --> 00:38:05,038
(light music)
822
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,044
(Jack): Well, that looks like
fun.
823
00:38:11,461 --> 00:38:12,421
You wanna join them?
824
00:38:12,796 --> 00:38:13,922
All right.
825
00:38:16,007 --> 00:38:19,469
So, where's your guy, Option A?
826
00:38:20,220 --> 00:38:24,516
- His name is Leo and he is no
longer an option.
827
00:38:25,225 --> 00:38:27,436
- So, I was right. You did need
insurance.
828
00:38:29,771 --> 00:38:31,064
Wait, does that mean no one is
coming?
829
00:38:31,523 --> 00:38:32,441
- Geoffrey was gonna come
830
00:38:33,191 --> 00:38:35,444
and he asked for a raincheck
too.
831
00:38:39,197 --> 00:38:42,033
- Can we at least look at the
trees, please?
832
00:38:42,534 --> 00:38:44,744
- I do still need content.
833
00:38:45,245 --> 00:38:46,538
- But your date's not here.
834
00:38:47,414 --> 00:38:49,708
- I don't have to actually go on
a date to write about a date.
835
00:38:50,125 --> 00:38:51,460
Fiction, remember?
836
00:38:52,294 --> 00:38:55,589
What do you say we try to find
the tallest Christmas tree?
837
00:38:55,964 --> 00:38:57,466
(Nora chuckles)
838
00:38:57,883 --> 00:39:00,844
(light music)
839
00:39:03,430 --> 00:39:06,808
- Flash cards? Oh, you did not!
- They help me stay organized.
840
00:39:07,350 --> 00:39:09,478
- For a date? - For the column.
841
00:39:10,020 --> 00:39:11,480
(sighs mockingly)
842
00:39:12,230 --> 00:39:14,316
- How is a woman like you
single?
843
00:39:14,941 --> 00:39:16,359
I mean, you are incredibly
successful,
844
00:39:17,027 --> 00:39:19,571
conventionally attractive. - Oh,
thanks.
845
00:39:20,238 --> 00:39:22,782
- I meant that as a compliment.
- Okay.
846
00:39:23,408 --> 00:39:24,618
Um, well, actually, I was
married.
847
00:39:25,076 --> 00:39:26,870
Briefly. Long time ago.
848
00:39:27,287 --> 00:39:29,164
To a fantastic guy.
849
00:39:29,956 --> 00:39:33,919
But it was right when Prism was
getting some traction
850
00:39:34,419 --> 00:39:36,213
and I wanted to grow that,
851
00:39:36,755 --> 00:39:38,340
and he wanted to move to a farm,
852
00:39:39,174 --> 00:39:43,345
and have a big family, and live
off the land and yeah,
853
00:39:44,221 --> 00:39:46,515
we really loved each other, but
we just weren't a good fit.
854
00:39:46,890 --> 00:39:49,935
So, after that,
855
00:39:50,477 --> 00:39:52,521
Prism started to take off and...
856
00:39:54,272 --> 00:39:56,441
And what about you? Have you
ever been married?
857
00:39:56,775 --> 00:39:58,860
- Uh, no. No.
858
00:39:59,319 --> 00:40:01,780
Engaged, twice. - Hmm.
859
00:40:02,656 --> 00:40:04,366
- Yeah, both times, I literally
put everything ahead of her
860
00:40:04,866 --> 00:40:05,867
and it cost me everything.
861
00:40:06,618 --> 00:40:08,370
It's part of the reason for the
career change.
862
00:40:09,746 --> 00:40:10,789
- I mean, life's too short.
863
00:40:11,623 --> 00:40:13,708
I uh, I want to experience as
much love and joy as I can
864
00:40:14,084 --> 00:40:16,086
while I'm here.
865
00:40:16,503 --> 00:40:17,921
Do you miss writing?
866
00:40:18,380 --> 00:40:20,924
- Uh, sometimes, I guess.
867
00:40:21,675 --> 00:40:24,386
But I don't miss bearing my soul
on the internet,
868
00:40:24,886 --> 00:40:26,137
only to be trolled for it.
869
00:40:26,805 --> 00:40:28,431
- Says the woman writing a
dating column.
870
00:40:28,932 --> 00:40:30,767
- No, that was not my choice.
871
00:40:31,434 --> 00:40:34,563
I just... I need the readers to
believe
872
00:40:35,146 --> 00:40:36,439
that I am falling in love,
873
00:40:37,148 --> 00:40:39,734
and then, the board won't vote
me out of CEO.
874
00:40:40,443 --> 00:40:44,197
- Whew, no pressure. - Ha, no,
none at all.
875
00:40:44,739 --> 00:40:47,409
- Isn't it perfect? We need it.
876
00:40:48,034 --> 00:40:50,579
- Kyle, why did you pick this
tree?
877
00:40:51,371 --> 00:40:52,872
- 'Cause it's tiny and funny
looking.
878
00:40:53,540 --> 00:40:54,583
And I was worried everybody
would want
879
00:40:55,083 --> 00:40:56,084
the big, fluffier trees.
880
00:40:56,751 --> 00:40:58,211
And I didn't want this one to be
lonely.
881
00:40:58,837 --> 00:41:00,589
So, I think we should take it
home.
882
00:41:01,506 --> 00:41:02,632
Do you think you sister would
like this Christmas tree?
883
00:41:03,216 --> 00:41:06,177
- Kyle, I think she would love
it.
884
00:41:06,469 --> 00:41:07,762
- Yes!
885
00:41:08,054 --> 00:41:08,930
(laughs)
886
00:41:11,016 --> 00:41:12,225
How long is he staying with you?
887
00:41:12,976 --> 00:41:15,604
- Uh, until the new year. My
half-sister, Olivia,
888
00:41:16,354 --> 00:41:18,106
she's a single mother ER doctor
back in Boston,
889
00:41:18,898 --> 00:41:21,109
and uh, well, she needed a
little help this season,
890
00:41:21,818 --> 00:41:23,028
so I offered to take Kyle for a
few weeks.
891
00:41:23,486 --> 00:41:24,738
- Oh, that's nice of you.
892
00:41:25,614 --> 00:41:27,198
- Well, it's the least I can do.
She's the one saving lives.
893
00:41:27,699 --> 00:41:29,242
- Well, if she comes to town,
894
00:41:29,951 --> 00:41:30,952
she is more than welcome to the
fundraiser.
895
00:41:31,578 --> 00:41:33,997
- I'll extend the invite. Thank
you.
896
00:41:34,331 --> 00:41:35,665
- Uncle Jack,
897
00:41:36,207 --> 00:41:37,667
can we get hot cocoa after this?
898
00:41:40,170 --> 00:41:42,339
- I would never turn down hot
cocoa.
899
00:41:42,631 --> 00:41:44,174
- Yes.
900
00:41:44,549 --> 00:41:46,676
(joyful music)
901
00:41:51,264 --> 00:41:52,849
- All right, I just finished my
last gift
902
00:41:53,350 --> 00:41:54,184
for the Michaelson family.
903
00:41:54,559 --> 00:41:55,852
Anyone need help?
904
00:41:56,519 --> 00:41:57,771
- I just started on the Smiths'
gifts.
905
00:41:58,188 --> 00:41:59,481
- Well, give me one.
906
00:42:00,106 --> 00:42:01,107
- So, do you guys do this every
year?
907
00:42:01,608 --> 00:42:02,651
Sponsor this many families?
908
00:42:03,485 --> 00:42:04,819
- Well, Nora actually started
the tradition.
909
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:06,696
- Oh, we started it together.
910
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,117
- So, Jack, why don't you tell
us about yourself?
911
00:42:11,993 --> 00:42:15,205
We know you're a photographer
and your photos are wonderful.
912
00:42:15,538 --> 00:42:16,498
- Thank you.
913
00:42:17,207 --> 00:42:19,542
Uh, it was actually quite a
career change.
914
00:42:20,335 --> 00:42:22,671
- Well, what did you do before?
- Corporate finance.
915
00:42:23,213 --> 00:42:24,673
- Hmm. - Yeah, I uh,
916
00:42:25,507 --> 00:42:26,675
worked for the same company for
three decades.
917
00:42:27,300 --> 00:42:28,176
But my grandfather, Franklin
Peterson,
918
00:42:28,635 --> 00:42:29,344
he was a photographer.
919
00:42:29,969 --> 00:42:31,846
- He did wildlife photography,
right?
920
00:42:32,389 --> 00:42:33,890
- Taught me everything I know.
921
00:42:34,599 --> 00:42:36,184
- But you went to corporate
finance anyway?
922
00:42:36,643 --> 00:42:38,478
- I took a safer route.
923
00:42:39,104 --> 00:42:40,146
But one day, it was like I woke
up
924
00:42:40,814 --> 00:42:41,815
and I realized that my life was
flying by
925
00:42:42,357 --> 00:42:43,149
and I hadn't done all the things
926
00:42:43,650 --> 00:42:45,110
that I really wanted to do.
927
00:42:45,568 --> 00:42:47,278
I was too afraid to do.
928
00:42:47,612 --> 00:42:50,031
So, I quit.
929
00:42:50,699 --> 00:42:52,575
I packed my bags, I bought a new
camera,
930
00:42:53,368 --> 00:42:54,619
and I travelled around the world
taking photographs
931
00:42:55,328 --> 00:42:56,579
of all those places I'd seen in
screensavers.
932
00:42:57,163 --> 00:42:59,082
- Hey, that's pretty
adventurous.
933
00:42:59,833 --> 00:43:01,960
- You wouldn't recognize me in
my finance days.
934
00:43:02,502 --> 00:43:05,088
- You like this version better?
935
00:43:05,588 --> 00:43:07,340
- Most of the time. - Hmm.
936
00:43:07,716 --> 00:43:08,675
- More so now.
937
00:43:10,385 --> 00:43:12,721
- And the column is going well?
938
00:43:13,054 --> 00:43:14,806
- It's uh...
939
00:43:15,265 --> 00:43:17,892
- Off to... - A start.
940
00:43:18,226 --> 00:43:20,770
(both laugh)
941
00:43:21,271 --> 00:43:22,856
It's a solid start. - Okay.
942
00:43:23,481 --> 00:43:25,442
- Um, I mean, I met a guy, and
it's...
943
00:43:26,025 --> 00:43:27,360
(cellphone pings) It's going
well.
944
00:43:27,694 --> 00:43:29,028
(chuckles)
945
00:43:30,947 --> 00:43:32,115
(cellphone chimes)
946
00:43:36,453 --> 00:43:37,537
(cellphone chimes)
947
00:43:41,291 --> 00:43:43,835
- Oh, Nora, don't forget to stop
by the train museum
948
00:43:44,502 --> 00:43:46,129
to drop off the deposit for our
space.
949
00:43:46,713 --> 00:43:47,630
We have to get it in by 4:00
p.m.
950
00:43:48,173 --> 00:43:48,840
or we lose the location. - Okay.
951
00:43:49,174 --> 00:43:51,009
- Thank you.
952
00:43:51,634 --> 00:43:53,762
(chuckling) (Lola): Night, Aunt
Nora.
953
00:43:54,179 --> 00:43:55,764
(soft music)
954
00:43:58,433 --> 00:44:01,519
- So, what's the plan? 'Cause
your guys keep bailing.
955
00:44:02,353 --> 00:44:05,482
- My guys don't keep bailing,
they keep rain-checking,
956
00:44:06,191 --> 00:44:08,234
which based on my column, nobody
would know.
957
00:44:08,651 --> 00:44:10,695
So, well, kind of.
958
00:44:11,196 --> 00:44:12,781
- What have you got to lose?
959
00:44:13,615 --> 00:44:14,741
I mean, if you really put
yourself out there?
960
00:44:15,450 --> 00:44:17,702
- Nothing other than being
mocked, ridiculed,
961
00:44:18,203 --> 00:44:19,454
never taken seriously again.
962
00:44:20,121 --> 00:44:22,791
- Well, I'm here to help. If you
need me.
963
00:44:23,541 --> 00:44:24,793
I mean, I know how much this
series means to you,
964
00:44:25,376 --> 00:44:27,796
so if I can help then I want to.
965
00:44:28,505 --> 00:44:31,341
- You're gonna help me lie to my
readers?
966
00:44:32,133 --> 00:44:33,802
- I read that piece you wrote on
Kyle and the tree.
967
00:44:34,260 --> 00:44:35,220
That wasn't a lie.
968
00:44:35,887 --> 00:44:37,806
And you encouraged us, dear
readers...
969
00:44:38,139 --> 00:44:39,557
(chuckles)
970
00:44:40,350 --> 00:44:41,810
...to do a small act of kindness
this holiday season.
971
00:44:42,268 --> 00:44:43,978
So, consider this mine.
972
00:44:44,771 --> 00:44:46,731
It is the most wonderful time of
the year after all.
973
00:44:47,232 --> 00:44:50,026
- Well, that is very kind.
974
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,028
Thank you.
975
00:44:52,737 --> 00:44:57,367
And have a good night at my
sister's house,
976
00:44:57,909 --> 00:44:59,828
which will never not be weird.
977
00:45:02,956 --> 00:45:06,209
(soft music)
978
00:45:07,460 --> 00:45:09,838
(soft music)
979
00:45:10,672 --> 00:45:12,841
(Nora): Dear Reader, Christmas
is a few days away
980
00:45:13,550 --> 00:45:16,803
and there is a new candidate,
Mr. G.,
981
00:45:17,262 --> 00:45:19,138
who after a bumpy start,
982
00:45:19,722 --> 00:45:21,516
I am finally going to get to
spend
983
00:45:22,016 --> 00:45:23,852
some one-on-one time with.
984
00:45:24,644 --> 00:45:25,854
Now, I'm not saying that this
writer
985
00:45:26,604 --> 00:45:28,773
is no longer a skeptic, because
I can assure you,
986
00:45:29,190 --> 00:45:31,150
I still am, but...
987
00:45:34,279 --> 00:45:35,446
(sighs)
988
00:45:35,822 --> 00:45:37,782
Be honest. Okay.
989
00:45:42,495 --> 00:45:46,457
Christmas can be a challenging
time.
990
00:45:48,835 --> 00:45:51,296
For me, it is.
991
00:45:53,089 --> 00:45:54,132
(sighs)
992
00:45:56,384 --> 00:46:00,138
This experiment has offered me
more bites of the apple,
993
00:46:00,471 --> 00:46:02,140
if you will,
994
00:46:02,682 --> 00:46:05,643
than I have had in a long time.
995
00:46:06,144 --> 00:46:09,814
Well, will that lead to love?
996
00:46:10,315 --> 00:46:12,108
That is yet to be determined.
997
00:46:13,568 --> 00:46:17,572
(soft music)
998
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:19,532
- Okay, everybody, listen up,
all right?
999
00:46:20,074 --> 00:46:22,076
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,
1000
00:46:22,869 --> 00:46:26,414
to the annual Winters Family
snowman building contest!
1001
00:46:27,123 --> 00:46:29,334
Unfortunately, Clark got stuck
at the bakery,
1002
00:46:29,751 --> 00:46:33,212
so Kyle, you and Lola
1003
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,840
are gonna be against Jack and
Aunt Nora,
1004
00:46:36,341 --> 00:46:37,467
and I am gonna be the ref.
1005
00:46:38,009 --> 00:46:41,095
Whoever builds the best snowman,
1006
00:46:41,638 --> 00:46:44,140
with full facial features, wins.
1007
00:46:44,766 --> 00:46:46,100
- And for the record, I never
lose.
1008
00:46:46,601 --> 00:46:47,977
- Ooh! I like that attitude.
1009
00:46:48,561 --> 00:46:52,565
- Okay, on your mark, get set,
go!
1010
00:46:52,941 --> 00:46:55,902
(all giggling)
1011
00:46:57,946 --> 00:46:58,947
(Adley): Perfect. (Kyle): All
right.
1012
00:46:59,238 --> 00:47:00,281
(grunts)
1013
00:47:01,824 --> 00:47:02,951
- Hmm, pretty good, pretty good.
- Let go. Right here.
1014
00:47:03,743 --> 00:47:05,620
- Perfect. On the top? (Kyle):
Uh, yeah.
1015
00:47:06,329 --> 00:47:07,038
- I think we have buttons in
here somewhere.
1016
00:47:08,206 --> 00:47:08,873
- Looking good, guys.
1017
00:47:09,374 --> 00:47:12,961
(overlapping excited chatter)
1018
00:47:13,294 --> 00:47:14,712
- Uh...
1019
00:47:15,463 --> 00:47:17,548
(Kyle): Okay, okay, look.
(Lola): Don't touch it.
1020
00:47:17,882 --> 00:47:19,968
(laughing)
1021
00:47:20,426 --> 00:47:21,761
- Nice try. - Nice try.
1022
00:47:22,178 --> 00:47:23,054
Gotta stable it, too.
1023
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,556
(Kyle): Yeah. - Aunt Nora's a
thief!
1024
00:47:26,182 --> 00:47:27,392
(Kyle): Uh-oh, oh, where's the
other--
1025
00:47:27,767 --> 00:47:28,977
Oh, there it is.
1026
00:47:29,686 --> 00:47:30,478
- Ah! (Adley): You lost your
hat!
1027
00:47:31,104 --> 00:47:33,147
- No! - Okay, I think I'm set,
okay.
1028
00:47:33,439 --> 00:47:34,649
- And...
1029
00:47:35,483 --> 00:47:36,234
Time's up.
1030
00:47:36,526 --> 00:47:37,902
- Yeah!
1031
00:47:39,237 --> 00:47:40,738
- Hmm.
1032
00:47:42,407 --> 00:47:44,617
The winner is...
1033
00:47:46,244 --> 00:47:47,829
...Kyle and Lola. - Yes! Yes!
1034
00:47:48,162 --> 00:47:48,997
- Good job!
1035
00:47:49,831 --> 00:47:50,748
- You two are the winners, you
get to open
1036
00:47:51,541 --> 00:47:52,291
the Christmas presents first on
Christmas morning!
1037
00:47:52,583 --> 00:47:53,793
- Yeah!
1038
00:47:54,460 --> 00:47:55,461
- You just picked it 'cause it's
a baker.
1039
00:47:55,962 --> 00:47:57,130
- No, no. - You know what?
1040
00:47:57,755 --> 00:47:59,007
You guys only won because we let
them.
1041
00:47:59,340 --> 00:48:00,925
- Yeah, okay.
1042
00:48:01,300 --> 00:48:02,927
(all laughing)
1043
00:48:03,386 --> 00:48:04,220
- Can we call it even?
1044
00:48:04,971 --> 00:48:07,682
(Nora): I got her this time. -
You totally got me!
1045
00:48:08,474 --> 00:48:09,767
- I'm going low. You go high. -
Okay, I'm going high.
1046
00:48:10,268 --> 00:48:11,936
(all cheering indistinctly)
1047
00:48:12,854 --> 00:48:14,272
(Nora): Right in the chest. Oh!
1048
00:48:14,814 --> 00:48:17,775
- Really well. See for yourself.
1049
00:48:18,443 --> 00:48:22,155
- High five! - Oh, she's done!
She's done!
1050
00:48:22,572 --> 00:48:25,158
- Oh, that looks fun.
1051
00:48:26,034 --> 00:48:28,453
Listen, I don't think I'm gonna
be making it down tonight.
1052
00:48:29,287 --> 00:48:31,706
- Come on, we still have a few
days left until Christmas.
1053
00:48:32,373 --> 00:48:33,916
- Yes, and I'm gonna try to make
it work
1054
00:48:34,584 --> 00:48:36,044
but we're gonna need a Christmas
miracle.
1055
00:48:36,586 --> 00:48:37,587
We're really short staffed.
1056
00:48:38,004 --> 00:48:39,297
- Well, don't worry.
1057
00:48:39,922 --> 00:48:41,841
Kyle's in good, very festive
hands.
1058
00:48:42,300 --> 00:48:43,885
- Switch. - Oh that's it.
1059
00:48:44,343 --> 00:48:45,136
- Can we call it even?
1060
00:48:45,511 --> 00:48:47,055
- You look happy.
1061
00:48:47,513 --> 00:48:49,265
- You know what? I am.
1062
00:48:50,016 --> 00:48:51,726
And I think I wanna make this a
family tradition.
1063
00:48:52,143 --> 00:48:53,561
- What, sleeping over
1064
00:48:54,187 --> 00:48:55,480
at your co-worker's sister's
house?
1065
00:48:55,772 --> 00:48:57,523
- Uh, no.
1066
00:48:58,107 --> 00:48:59,275
Us spending family time
together.
1067
00:48:59,901 --> 00:49:01,778
I feel like we're seriously
lagging
1068
00:49:02,403 --> 00:49:03,279
in the family traditions
department.
1069
00:49:03,988 --> 00:49:05,656
- Yeah, I would like that.
(cellphone pings)
1070
00:49:06,282 --> 00:49:08,284
Oh, listen, I gotta go. Love ya.
Bye!
1071
00:49:08,659 --> 00:49:10,620
- Come on, Sis.
1072
00:49:10,953 --> 00:49:13,331
Oh, nice one.
1073
00:49:13,831 --> 00:49:16,334
- Winning snowman! - Cheese!
1074
00:49:17,168 --> 00:49:18,920
Hey, Kyle, uh, do you wanna come
with me to the bakery?
1075
00:49:19,629 --> 00:49:20,421
We're meeting my dad to finish
up some baking
1076
00:49:20,963 --> 00:49:22,048
for our booth at the fundraiser.
1077
00:49:22,465 --> 00:49:23,925
(cellphone chimes)
1078
00:49:24,425 --> 00:49:26,594
- Uncle Jack, can we go too?
1079
00:49:26,886 --> 00:49:28,096
- Uh...
1080
00:49:28,846 --> 00:49:30,640
- Oh, um, I've got something
else I've gotta do.
1081
00:49:31,557 --> 00:49:33,101
- Nora, don't forget to drop off
the deposit at the train museum.
1082
00:49:33,851 --> 00:49:35,144
Larry is gonna meet you there at
4:00.
1083
00:49:35,853 --> 00:49:37,980
- Okay, I'll see you later. -
Come on, kiddo.
1084
00:49:38,272 --> 00:49:39,273
- Bye.
1085
00:49:40,983 --> 00:49:42,443
- She cares, Mom. - I know.
1086
00:49:43,194 --> 00:49:44,612
I just wish she'd be a bit more
present, is all.
1087
00:49:45,446 --> 00:49:47,240
You know, holidays are about
spending time with family.
1088
00:49:47,990 --> 00:49:50,118
Not trying to cram in as much as
work as possible.
1089
00:49:50,409 --> 00:49:51,536
- I know.
1090
00:49:52,537 --> 00:49:54,122
(soft music)
1091
00:49:54,664 --> 00:49:56,124
- Okay, Max, what is going on?
1092
00:49:56,791 --> 00:49:58,251
- You might wanna sit down for
this.
1093
00:49:58,501 --> 00:50:00,002
- Oh.
1094
00:50:06,342 --> 00:50:08,136
- I know this whole
1095
00:50:08,845 --> 00:50:10,555
how to fall in love by Christmas
thing
1096
00:50:11,222 --> 00:50:13,141
is kinda your worst nightmare. -
Uh-huh.
1097
00:50:13,808 --> 00:50:15,560
- But I think it's kinda great.
1098
00:50:16,394 --> 00:50:18,437
You and Jack, you're creating
something that's unique,
1099
00:50:18,980 --> 00:50:22,150
compelling, and kinda beautiful.
1100
00:50:22,650 --> 00:50:23,860
(light music)
1101
00:50:24,569 --> 00:50:26,737
- Why do you look like you're
gonna pass out?
1102
00:50:27,363 --> 00:50:29,073
- Because I don't think it's
enough.
1103
00:50:29,490 --> 00:50:31,534
It's the board, Nora.
1104
00:50:31,909 --> 00:50:34,662
CEO evaluation.
1105
00:50:35,454 --> 00:50:37,206
They're putting measures in
place to vote you out.
1106
00:50:37,915 --> 00:50:40,001
I guess the Take 2 Heart deal is
a bit shaky
1107
00:50:40,459 --> 00:50:42,336
after the low engagement.
1108
00:50:42,879 --> 00:50:44,505
- Why are you telling me this?
1109
00:50:45,173 --> 00:50:46,257
- Because I don't agree with the
direction
1110
00:50:46,716 --> 00:50:48,176
they wanna take Prism in.
1111
00:50:51,971 --> 00:50:55,266
- Yeah, of course. So, what do
you think?
1112
00:50:55,766 --> 00:50:58,186
- These are just phenomenal.
1113
00:50:58,895 --> 00:51:00,146
Some of your best work yet,
Jack.
1114
00:51:00,855 --> 00:51:02,190
- Well, I'm glad the
photography's authentic
1115
00:51:02,690 --> 00:51:04,192
because not everything is.
1116
00:51:04,609 --> 00:51:05,651
- What do you mean?
1117
00:51:06,277 --> 00:51:07,570
- This whole falling in love
thing.
1118
00:51:08,070 --> 00:51:09,280
I don't know how real it is.
1119
00:51:09,989 --> 00:51:12,783
- Well, with work like this,
there is no doubt
1120
00:51:13,618 --> 00:51:15,203
Prism is gonna be offering you
that photography contract.
1121
00:51:15,703 --> 00:51:16,829
Get you that home base.
1122
00:51:17,496 --> 00:51:19,290
- When I said that, I meant a
gallery,
1123
00:51:19,707 --> 00:51:20,958
not another website.
1124
00:51:21,667 --> 00:51:24,462
- Another website pays quite a
lot of money.
1125
00:51:25,129 --> 00:51:26,672
- I don't wanna give up on the
gallery.
1126
00:51:27,215 --> 00:51:28,341
- I'm gonna keep working on it.
1127
00:51:28,716 --> 00:51:30,218
In the meantime,
1128
00:51:31,093 --> 00:51:33,221
you keep killing it like this
and you are going to have
1129
00:51:37,141 --> 00:51:38,935
with Level Eleven right now.
Talk soon.
1130
00:51:43,981 --> 00:51:46,400
Hi. Yeah, this is Sara Miller.
1131
00:51:46,901 --> 00:51:48,152
Look, I have some information
1132
00:51:48,778 --> 00:51:50,238
I would just love to share with
you
1133
00:51:51,113 --> 00:51:53,241
about Jack's assignment with
Nora Winters over at Prism.
1134
00:51:53,991 --> 00:51:56,244
Apparently, there is some
fabrication going on.
1135
00:51:58,704 --> 00:52:00,915
- Hmm. So, what do we do?
1136
00:52:01,540 --> 00:52:02,625
- We find a way to prove to the
board
1137
00:52:03,292 --> 00:52:04,001
that their motion shouldn't go
forward.
1138
00:52:04,710 --> 00:52:06,212
- Haven't they already made up
their minds?
1139
00:52:06,796 --> 00:52:07,588
- They still need a majority
vote.
1140
00:52:08,130 --> 00:52:09,507
Christine, she's on the fence.
1141
00:52:09,966 --> 00:52:11,592
Nora, we can fix this.
1142
00:52:12,385 --> 00:52:13,970
And the way we're gonna do it is
through your column.
1143
00:52:15,221 --> 00:52:16,347
(sighs)
1144
00:52:16,681 --> 00:52:20,226
(soft music)
1145
00:52:21,894 --> 00:52:22,979
(sighs)
1146
00:52:25,523 --> 00:52:26,482
(cellphone pings)
1147
00:52:31,153 --> 00:52:32,280
- Hmm.
1148
00:52:48,754 --> 00:52:50,798
I need some advice.
1149
00:52:51,465 --> 00:52:52,425
Can you meet me at the Christmas
market?
1150
00:52:52,842 --> 00:52:53,968
Hot cocoa's on me.
1151
00:52:54,302 --> 00:52:56,554
(soft music)
1152
00:53:00,057 --> 00:53:03,311
So, Take 2 Heart
1153
00:53:04,270 --> 00:53:06,188
isn't thrilled with the content
and the Prism board
1154
00:53:06,856 --> 00:53:08,524
is actively talking about
replacing me.
1155
00:53:08,816 --> 00:53:10,318
- Okay.
1156
00:53:11,110 --> 00:53:13,529
Have you ever done a SWOT
analysis before?
1157
00:53:14,030 --> 00:53:17,158
- Uh, strength, weaknesses,
1158
00:53:17,616 --> 00:53:19,327
opportunities, threats.
1159
00:53:20,119 --> 00:53:21,620
Um, yeah, I've done one for my
business
1160
00:53:22,204 --> 00:53:23,748
but I've never done it for
myself.
1161
00:53:24,248 --> 00:53:27,043
- Okay. Strengths as a CEO.
1162
00:53:29,045 --> 00:53:30,338
- Uh...
1163
00:53:32,173 --> 00:53:34,633
I...
1164
00:53:35,301 --> 00:53:38,095
am hardworking, trustworthy,
independent.
1165
00:53:40,139 --> 00:53:43,351
I founded a company and grew it
to what it is today.
1166
00:53:44,894 --> 00:53:46,354
- And your weaknesses?
1167
00:53:48,272 --> 00:53:50,107
- Uh...
1168
00:53:50,441 --> 00:53:52,818
I can be...
1169
00:53:54,737 --> 00:53:56,072
...narrow-minded,
1170
00:53:56,405 --> 00:53:58,532
to a fault.
1171
00:53:58,824 --> 00:54:00,201
(sighs)
1172
00:54:00,493 --> 00:54:02,661
You know,
1173
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,498
we spend our whole lives
1174
00:54:05,956 --> 00:54:07,875
trying to be something,
1175
00:54:08,334 --> 00:54:09,377
trying to do something,
1176
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:11,629
trying to achieve something.
1177
00:54:13,255 --> 00:54:15,925
And I mean, in the end...
1178
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:20,388
...this is all that matters.
This...
1179
00:54:21,180 --> 00:54:24,350
This old-fashioned human
connection.
1180
00:54:25,059 --> 00:54:27,645
- Which, I would say, is your
opportunity.
1181
00:54:30,398 --> 00:54:32,358
- And my threat?
1182
00:54:32,608 --> 00:54:34,026
Hmm.
1183
00:54:34,443 --> 00:54:35,903
If I don't do this,
1184
00:54:36,570 --> 00:54:38,864
everything I built, my lifestyle
brand,
1185
00:54:39,532 --> 00:54:42,410
by women, for women, to empower
women,
1186
00:54:42,785 --> 00:54:44,787
is just gone.
1187
00:54:45,079 --> 00:54:46,414
You know?
1188
00:54:48,332 --> 00:54:51,001
I wouldn't even mind bringing in
the younger readers,
1189
00:54:51,669 --> 00:54:54,422
I just don't wanna lose the
connection
1190
00:54:55,214 --> 00:54:57,133
we have with the ones that are
already there.
1191
00:54:57,967 --> 00:55:00,219
- Well, I think we're looking at
another opportunity here.
1192
00:55:00,928 --> 00:55:03,347
I know it's scary to put
yourself out there
1193
00:55:04,056 --> 00:55:05,433
but think of all the women who
could relate
1194
00:55:06,308 --> 00:55:07,435
to your journey of opening up
your heart again.
1195
00:55:08,060 --> 00:55:09,728
Partnership with Take 2 Heart,
or not.
1196
00:55:11,772 --> 00:55:13,149
- Uh.
1197
00:55:13,816 --> 00:55:17,278
So, I dug a little deeper on
your work.
1198
00:55:17,653 --> 00:55:18,571
- Oh yeah? - Hmm.
1199
00:55:19,071 --> 00:55:21,532
- What'd you think? - Hmm.
1200
00:55:22,032 --> 00:55:24,118
You have a very unique eye.
1201
00:55:25,453 --> 00:55:26,620
- Was that a compliment?
1202
00:55:27,121 --> 00:55:28,456
- It was more of a statement.
1203
00:55:29,081 --> 00:55:30,541
(laughs) - Was that a laugh?
1204
00:55:31,250 --> 00:55:33,586
- Um, more of a positive
emotional reaction.
1205
00:55:33,919 --> 00:55:35,546
(both laugh)
1206
00:55:37,173 --> 00:55:38,340
Oh.
1207
00:55:41,135 --> 00:55:43,304
- Look, I... I know this isn't
easy
1208
00:55:43,929 --> 00:55:45,181
but you're embracing the
challenge.
1209
00:55:45,931 --> 00:55:47,183
And I think if you lean into the
Christmas spirit
1210
00:55:47,850 --> 00:55:49,477
just a little bit more, you
might find
1211
00:55:50,186 --> 00:55:51,645
exactly what you're looking for.
1212
00:55:53,022 --> 00:55:55,524
(soft music)
1213
00:55:56,066 --> 00:55:58,486
Hmm. Whoa, that's, that was...
1214
00:55:59,028 --> 00:56:00,154
- Oh. (laughs)
1215
00:56:00,529 --> 00:56:02,156
Oh, no. - Yeah.
1216
00:56:02,531 --> 00:56:04,283
- No way. - Nope.
1217
00:56:04,742 --> 00:56:05,701
- That's like, I mean,
1218
00:56:06,285 --> 00:56:08,370
I didn't wanna kiss you and
yeah,
1219
00:56:08,913 --> 00:56:09,914
I mean, you don't wanna kiss me.
1220
00:56:10,456 --> 00:56:11,415
- No, it -- - No, right. Gross.
1221
00:56:11,707 --> 00:56:12,500
- Gross.
1222
00:56:12,875 --> 00:56:14,502
(both chuckle)
1223
00:56:15,169 --> 00:56:16,629
What do you say, do you wanna,
1224
00:56:17,421 --> 00:56:18,631
do you wanna get outta here and
grab a bite to eat?
1225
00:56:19,048 --> 00:56:20,799
- Oh, I, I'd love to
1226
00:56:21,550 --> 00:56:25,262
but I am having dinner with
Geoffrey in an hour.
1227
00:56:25,679 --> 00:56:26,972
- A real date, huh?
1228
00:56:27,681 --> 00:56:29,225
Well, do you think I should
photograph it?
1229
00:56:29,934 --> 00:56:31,519
Get some actual photos with the
actual guy
1230
00:56:32,144 --> 00:56:33,229
for this new non-fiction
version?
1231
00:56:33,979 --> 00:56:35,648
- Actually, I think I should fly
solo on this one.
1232
00:56:36,190 --> 00:56:37,942
- You won't even know I'm there.
1233
00:56:38,776 --> 00:56:41,278
And this is kinda the reason for
the series, after all.
1234
00:56:41,570 --> 00:56:42,696
(sighs)
1235
00:56:44,323 --> 00:56:46,200
- Okay. Okay, fine.
1236
00:56:46,784 --> 00:56:49,453
We're gonna be at Zini's at
8:00.
1237
00:56:49,745 --> 00:56:51,372
And um...
1238
00:56:52,623 --> 00:56:54,875
I-I won't see you there.
1239
00:56:55,167 --> 00:56:56,085
(laughs)
1240
00:56:57,545 --> 00:56:58,546
(sighs)
1241
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:01,257
Oh, man.
1242
00:57:01,715 --> 00:57:02,967
(clears throat) Hey...
1243
00:57:04,468 --> 00:57:07,054
Thank you again for your help.
1244
00:57:07,388 --> 00:57:09,640
- Happy to.
1245
00:57:10,182 --> 00:57:13,060
- Hmm. All right. See ya soon.
1246
00:57:13,352 --> 00:57:14,562
- See ya.
1247
00:57:18,065 --> 00:57:19,233
(chuckles)
1248
00:57:19,567 --> 00:57:21,569
(soft music)
1249
00:57:29,535 --> 00:57:30,911
(sending a text)
1250
00:57:34,707 --> 00:57:36,041
(cellphone pings)
1251
00:57:41,672 --> 00:57:42,673
(sending a text)
1252
00:57:48,262 --> 00:57:50,598
(joyful music)
1253
00:57:52,433 --> 00:57:54,310
(Nora sighs)
1254
00:57:55,978 --> 00:57:57,271
(sighs)
1255
00:57:58,522 --> 00:58:00,065
(sighs)
1256
00:58:00,441 --> 00:58:02,276
- Dear Reader,
1257
00:58:03,068 --> 00:58:06,030
I wanna tell you a story about a
person in my life.
1258
00:58:06,488 --> 00:58:09,617
We will call him Space.
1259
00:58:11,619 --> 00:58:15,497
Now, Space has really stepped it
up for me
1260
00:58:15,914 --> 00:58:17,541
this holiday season
1261
00:58:18,042 --> 00:58:21,337
but he really helped me see
1262
00:58:21,962 --> 00:58:23,422
that the people that I always
thought
1263
00:58:24,214 --> 00:58:27,092
were so much happier than I was
during the holidays
1264
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:31,639
were just letting themselves be
happy.
1265
00:58:32,389 --> 00:58:36,435
They were leaning in to the
magic of the season.
1266
00:58:36,852 --> 00:58:39,396
Which, dear reader,
1267
00:58:40,022 --> 00:58:42,149
is something I am going to try
to do.
1268
00:58:42,566 --> 00:58:44,610
For real, this time.
1269
00:58:44,902 --> 00:58:45,986
(sighs)
1270
00:58:46,236 --> 00:58:47,112
Hmm.
1271
00:58:48,530 --> 00:58:49,823
Ahh.
1272
00:58:51,116 --> 00:58:54,828
(joyful music)
1273
00:59:02,211 --> 00:59:04,254
(Nora): Are you kidding me?
1274
00:59:05,005 --> 00:59:06,590
- I would never kid about
something as serious
1275
00:59:07,049 --> 00:59:07,925
as radio show contests.
1276
00:59:08,717 --> 00:59:11,679
- It's just so wild. You won
multiple prizes on air.
1277
00:59:12,388 --> 00:59:13,681
- Well, what can I say, I'm a
lucky guy.
1278
00:59:14,223 --> 00:59:15,974
- Oh. - In more ways than one.
1279
00:59:16,225 --> 00:59:17,643
- Aw.
1280
00:59:19,353 --> 00:59:21,146
It was fun tonight. (Geoffrey):
Yeah, I agree.
1281
00:59:21,772 --> 00:59:22,981
(camera shutter snaps) (Nora
chuckles)
1282
00:59:23,482 --> 00:59:24,775
- Listen, my sister is having
1283
00:59:25,442 --> 00:59:26,944
this dinner thing at her house
tomorrow
1284
00:59:27,778 --> 00:59:29,196
and I know we just started
seeing each other but I was --
1285
00:59:29,822 --> 00:59:31,115
- I would love to go. - You
would?
1286
00:59:31,490 --> 00:59:32,574
- Yes, I would.
1287
00:59:33,033 --> 00:59:34,410
(camera shutter snaps)
1288
00:59:39,873 --> 00:59:43,711
(soft music)
1289
00:59:53,303 --> 00:59:55,222
- Okay, so according to Adley's
list,
1290
00:59:55,764 --> 00:59:57,474
we need to make custom ornaments
1291
00:59:58,142 --> 00:59:59,727
for all of the silent auction
winners,
1292
01:00:00,769 --> 01:00:03,021
and she gave me a rough sketch
of what they should look like.
1293
01:00:03,731 --> 01:00:05,649
- Do you guys always do this
level of detail?
1294
01:00:05,983 --> 01:00:07,568
- We try to.
1295
01:00:08,068 --> 01:00:09,737
Actually, the last few years,
1296
01:00:10,529 --> 01:00:12,614
Adley really has had to shoulder
most of it.
1297
01:00:13,157 --> 01:00:15,576
But she has done a fantastic job
1298
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:17,745
keeping my mother's vision
alive.
1299
01:00:19,747 --> 01:00:21,749
(cellphone vibrates) Oh.
1300
01:00:22,458 --> 01:00:24,501
Shoot. Sorry. - No, no, go
ahead.
1301
01:00:24,793 --> 01:00:26,378
- Hello?
1302
01:00:27,004 --> 01:00:28,756
- Okay, so, good news and bad
news.
1303
01:00:29,214 --> 01:00:30,007
I feel like you and Jack
1304
01:00:30,674 --> 01:00:31,550
are really starting to find your
groove.
1305
01:00:32,259 --> 01:00:35,345
But Take 2 Heart wants to avoid
any potential
1306
01:00:36,180 --> 01:00:38,557
girl falls in love with a guy
right under her nose angle.
1307
01:00:39,850 --> 01:00:40,768
It's a little too convenient.
1308
01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:42,478
I'd stick with Mr. G., if I were
you.
1309
01:00:42,978 --> 01:00:44,313
Lean into that. - Yeah, okay.
1310
01:00:44,980 --> 01:00:47,149
Um, I'm... I don't have feelings
for Jack.
1311
01:00:47,608 --> 01:00:48,984
I mean, I mean, Space.
1312
01:00:49,651 --> 01:00:50,944
- Sorry, I can't really talk
right now.
1313
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:52,488
Chat soon. Bye.
1314
01:00:52,780 --> 01:00:54,490
- But...
1315
01:00:59,244 --> 01:01:00,788
Sorry about that.
1316
01:01:03,499 --> 01:01:04,917
- Should I uh, stick to
photography?
1317
01:01:05,209 --> 01:01:07,044
(laughs)
1318
01:01:07,711 --> 01:01:09,338
You might wanna not quit your
day job.
1319
01:01:09,963 --> 01:01:11,590
- Okay. I mean, it's -- - It's
cute.
1320
01:01:12,216 --> 01:01:13,592
- It's like a tr-- - Oh, now
it's a,
1321
01:01:14,176 --> 01:01:14,885
I see it's a tree. - There you
go,
1322
01:01:15,594 --> 01:01:16,762
there's the tree. - Yeah,
there's the tree.
1323
01:01:17,137 --> 01:01:18,806
(joyful music)
1324
01:01:20,808 --> 01:01:22,351
- We'll take care of it. We'll
take care of it.
1325
01:01:22,851 --> 01:01:24,102
- I got the fancy ornaments.
1326
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:26,688
(sighs) - You forgot.
1327
01:01:27,147 --> 01:01:28,774
- What? I... I forgot?
1328
01:01:29,191 --> 01:01:30,317
(gasps) Oh, the form!
1329
01:01:30,943 --> 01:01:32,569
Oh, Adley, I'm sorry. You know
what?
1330
01:01:33,278 --> 01:01:33,987
I'll go talk to him. I've got my
checkbook.
1331
01:01:34,488 --> 01:01:36,240
- No, no, no, I handled it.
1332
01:01:36,740 --> 01:01:40,244
- Oh. Okay, then we're good?
1333
01:01:40,786 --> 01:01:44,373
- No. No, we're not good, Nora.
1334
01:01:44,706 --> 01:01:45,833
(sighs) Look,
1335
01:01:46,458 --> 01:01:48,418
I know that Prism is important
to you,
1336
01:01:49,086 --> 01:01:51,964
but you and I, we made a promise
to Mom
1337
01:01:52,506 --> 01:01:54,800
to run this foundation together.
1338
01:01:55,509 --> 01:01:57,094
And sometimes it feels like I am
the only one
1339
01:01:57,678 --> 01:01:58,846
who takes that promise
seriously.
1340
01:01:59,721 --> 01:02:01,390
- Okay, Adley, you do this. You
do this every time.
1341
01:02:02,182 --> 01:02:05,811
It's every time this idea that I
abandoned the family,
1342
01:02:06,562 --> 01:02:08,605
or whatever, because didn't take
over the bakery.
1343
01:02:09,231 --> 01:02:10,440
- That's kinda exactly what you
did.
1344
01:02:10,983 --> 01:02:11,859
- You know what? You're right.
1345
01:02:12,651 --> 01:02:13,777
I did follow my passions and my
dreams,
1346
01:02:14,444 --> 01:02:15,362
and they didn't involve making
cookies.
1347
01:02:15,904 --> 01:02:17,281
But I am always there for you.
1348
01:02:17,948 --> 01:02:20,701
- Actions speak louder than
words, Nora,
1349
01:02:21,368 --> 01:02:22,953
and your actions speak loud and
clear.
1350
01:02:23,245 --> 01:02:24,454
(sighs)
1351
01:02:26,540 --> 01:02:29,293
- Everything okay? - Uh, no.
Apparently not.
1352
01:02:29,918 --> 01:02:30,878
- She's just stressed. - Yeah,
okay.
1353
01:02:31,336 --> 01:02:32,963
You should take those.
1354
01:02:33,463 --> 01:02:35,257
I should go. - No, hey, no.
1355
01:02:35,757 --> 01:02:38,343
I think quite the opposite.
1356
01:02:38,886 --> 01:02:40,679
I think you're very wanted here.
1357
01:02:41,805 --> 01:02:43,223
Come on.
1358
01:02:47,477 --> 01:02:49,897
(soft music)
1359
01:02:50,647 --> 01:02:51,481
- And I told him, "No, there's
no way
1360
01:02:52,316 --> 01:02:54,151
we're gonna take that deal. My
client deserves better."
1361
01:02:54,776 --> 01:02:55,819
Excuse me, pass the potatoes,
please.
1362
01:02:56,486 --> 01:02:57,487
- You know, that reminds me of
the time--
1363
01:02:58,196 --> 01:02:58,989
- And they did, they came up on
their offer,
1364
01:02:59,489 --> 01:03:00,282
which of course, I always do.
1365
01:03:00,949 --> 01:03:01,909
You know, I say the client comes
first.
1366
01:03:02,367 --> 01:03:03,911
That's my motto.
1367
01:03:04,703 --> 01:03:05,829
And then, of course, there was
another time,
1368
01:03:06,580 --> 01:03:07,414
ooh, hold on here for a second,
they got away,
1369
01:03:07,998 --> 01:03:09,207
and then, there was another
time,
1370
01:03:09,833 --> 01:03:11,001
a client comes in from out of
town...
1371
01:03:13,378 --> 01:03:14,713
...and you know, he says,
1372
01:03:15,380 --> 01:03:16,882
"Hey, I need you to do
something, right?"
1373
01:03:17,507 --> 01:03:17,925
He comes in completely
unannounced.
1374
01:03:18,425 --> 01:03:18,926
And you know. He says,
1375
01:03:19,509 --> 01:03:20,510
"I need you to take care of
XYZ."
1376
01:03:21,219 --> 01:03:22,596
And I can't tell you what XYZ
is, of course,
1377
01:03:23,388 --> 01:03:24,640
'cause that's completely
confidential, but he says,
1378
01:03:25,390 --> 01:03:27,684
"Need it to be done, ASAP." So,
and-and I did it.
1379
01:03:28,435 --> 01:03:29,728
You know, what can I say? I'm
good at what I do.
1380
01:03:30,395 --> 01:03:31,939
You know what I mean? Client
comes first.
1381
01:03:36,318 --> 01:03:37,903
(Nora): I'm glad you liked the
potatoes.
1382
01:03:38,445 --> 01:03:39,321
- Oh, everything was wonderful.
1383
01:03:39,821 --> 01:03:41,281
The roast was a little dry,
1384
01:03:41,907 --> 01:03:43,533
but a trick my mother used to
use,
1385
01:03:44,409 --> 01:03:45,953
she'd put just a little bit of
water in the base of the tin.
1386
01:03:46,578 --> 01:03:47,496
Keeps everything nice and moist.
1387
01:03:48,246 --> 01:03:49,456
- Oh, well, I'll make sure I
pass along the tip.
1388
01:03:49,790 --> 01:03:51,124
(chuckles)
1389
01:03:55,170 --> 01:03:56,088
Ooh.
1390
01:03:56,505 --> 01:03:58,215
(chuckles awkwardly)
1391
01:03:58,757 --> 01:04:00,801
- So, I will see you tomorrow.
1392
01:04:01,343 --> 01:04:02,427
I'm excited for the fundraiser.
1393
01:04:03,011 --> 01:04:05,305
- Oh, I'll see you there. -
Okay.
1394
01:04:05,681 --> 01:04:06,974
(door opening)
1395
01:04:10,519 --> 01:04:11,436
(sighs)
1396
01:04:14,398 --> 01:04:15,816
- Don't say anything.
1397
01:04:16,149 --> 01:04:17,818
- It's late.
1398
01:04:18,568 --> 01:04:19,444
You should probably just stay
here for the night.
1399
01:04:19,945 --> 01:04:20,862
Your room's already made up.
1400
01:04:21,238 --> 01:04:21,989
- You know what?
1401
01:04:22,698 --> 01:04:23,991
I should uh, I should put Kyle
to bed.
1402
01:04:26,743 --> 01:04:27,536
- I don't know, I think I
should--
1403
01:04:27,953 --> 01:04:29,121
- I just miss you.
1404
01:04:30,455 --> 01:04:32,416
I know that you have so much
going on.
1405
01:04:32,916 --> 01:04:35,711
It's honestly so impressive.
1406
01:04:36,128 --> 01:04:37,754
- Well, look at you.
1407
01:04:38,296 --> 01:04:39,881
You have this beautiful family,
1408
01:04:40,507 --> 01:04:42,551
and this business that people
love.
1409
01:04:43,176 --> 01:04:44,845
And every year, you throw this
event
1410
01:04:45,387 --> 01:04:46,013
that actually makes a difference
1411
01:04:46,513 --> 01:04:47,180
in people's lives.
1412
01:04:47,848 --> 01:04:49,933
I mean, you're the one that's
impressive.
1413
01:04:51,643 --> 01:04:53,687
And I'm sorry I don't tell you
that enough.
1414
01:04:55,689 --> 01:04:57,941
And I miss you, too.
1415
01:04:58,275 --> 01:05:00,277
I love you.
1416
01:05:00,569 --> 01:05:02,362
(sniffs)
1417
01:05:02,654 --> 01:05:04,281
(sniffs)
1418
01:05:04,698 --> 01:05:07,034
- Don't cry. (laughs)
1419
01:05:07,868 --> 01:05:09,244
I guess you should just uh, stay
the night, then?
1420
01:05:09,995 --> 01:05:13,123
- Can I borrow some pajamas? -
Yeah, I got lots.
1421
01:05:13,498 --> 01:05:15,709
So, Geoffrey...
1422
01:05:16,084 --> 01:05:18,003
He seems nice.
1423
01:05:18,462 --> 01:05:19,796
- Yeah, he is, I think.
1424
01:05:20,338 --> 01:05:21,506
I mean, we have a lot in common.
1425
01:05:22,007 --> 01:05:25,260
- Jack... he's a lovely guy.
1426
01:05:25,677 --> 01:05:26,762
- He's just a friend.
1427
01:05:27,471 --> 01:05:29,264
- I always thought that was a
funny saying.
1428
01:05:29,681 --> 01:05:30,974
- What do you mean?
1429
01:05:31,391 --> 01:05:33,727
- I think a soulmate
1430
01:05:34,102 --> 01:05:35,854
is just a friend
1431
01:05:36,521 --> 01:05:38,065
you happen to have deeper
chemistry with.
1432
01:05:38,899 --> 01:05:41,651
You know, the kind of friend
your soul just knows.
1433
01:05:42,069 --> 01:05:44,279
- That is so cheesy.
1434
01:05:45,030 --> 01:05:47,449
- I know, I know, but I'm just
saying, you know,
1435
01:05:48,241 --> 01:05:49,076
there's a lot of people out
there that you'll have
1436
01:05:49,910 --> 01:05:51,078
a deeper chemistry with in your
lifetime.
1437
01:05:53,371 --> 01:05:56,625
But not everyone will make you
feel like home.
1438
01:05:56,917 --> 01:05:58,251
- Hmm.
1439
01:05:58,585 --> 01:06:00,921
(soft music)
1440
01:06:03,882 --> 01:06:04,883
(sighs)
1441
01:06:05,967 --> 01:06:07,094
(cellphone chimes)
1442
01:06:08,678 --> 01:06:10,639
- Sara? -
1443
01:06:11,306 --> 01:06:13,100
Level Eleven is sending over a
job offer.
1444
01:06:16,728 --> 01:06:18,146
and they absolutely love it.
1445
01:06:18,522 --> 01:06:20,440
- Is that legal?
1446
01:06:21,233 --> 01:06:22,984
I mean, my work for Prism is
owned by Prism, right?
1447
01:06:23,652 --> 01:06:24,111
- It's not like they're
publishing it,
1448
01:06:24,778 --> 01:06:25,445
they're just using it to
evaluate you.
1449
01:06:26,154 --> 01:06:28,115
Anyhow, there should be an offer
coming soon.
1450
01:06:28,782 --> 01:06:30,117
Keep an eye on your email.
1451
01:06:30,617 --> 01:06:31,451
Gotta go. Bye.
1452
01:06:32,994 --> 01:06:35,288
(both sigh)
1453
01:06:38,208 --> 01:06:39,292
(sighs)
1454
01:06:42,420 --> 01:06:43,797
(groans)
1455
01:06:45,882 --> 01:06:48,093
(soft music)
1456
01:06:51,304 --> 01:06:54,141
(Nora): Ooh! What are you doing
up?
1457
01:06:54,641 --> 01:06:56,226
- What are you doing up?
1458
01:06:56,768 --> 01:06:59,396
- I asked you first. (giggles)
1459
01:06:59,980 --> 01:07:02,149
Oh, I was having trouble
sleeping.
1460
01:07:04,151 --> 01:07:05,861
Thought I'd get a midnight
snack.
1461
01:07:06,236 --> 01:07:09,030
- Hmm. Chestnut?
1462
01:07:09,447 --> 01:07:10,657
- Don't mind if I do.
1463
01:07:12,325 --> 01:07:14,703
(breathes deeply)
1464
01:07:15,370 --> 01:07:17,080
- I wanted to edit some of the
new photos.
1465
01:07:17,581 --> 01:07:19,332
This is one of my favorites.
1466
01:07:19,624 --> 01:07:21,293
- Hmm.
1467
01:07:21,918 --> 01:07:24,045
- I love how alive you look in
these.
1468
01:07:24,713 --> 01:07:26,882
- You always shoot in black and
white?
1469
01:07:27,382 --> 01:07:29,009
- It was my grandpa's style.
1470
01:07:29,676 --> 01:07:31,178
Said it got rid of anything
superfluous.
1471
01:07:32,596 --> 01:07:34,181
- I like that.
1472
01:07:35,140 --> 01:07:36,892
- And this gallery placement
that I'm trying to land,
1473
01:07:37,601 --> 01:07:39,186
it was the first gallery to
feature his work
1474
01:07:39,603 --> 01:07:40,979
all those years ago.
1475
01:07:41,479 --> 01:07:43,023
Yeah, he loved that place.
1476
01:07:43,815 --> 01:07:45,901
- Hmm. I think it's really brave
that you went for it.
1477
01:07:46,651 --> 01:07:48,361
- I just got tired of feeling
like I wasn't doing
1478
01:07:49,070 --> 01:07:52,324
everything I could to live the
life I loved.
1479
01:07:52,616 --> 01:07:54,201
- Hmm.
1480
01:07:55,952 --> 01:07:58,121
Life you love. Hmm.
1481
01:08:00,707 --> 01:08:02,500
I'm gonna take another chestnut.
1482
01:08:02,834 --> 01:08:04,794
(chuckles)
1483
01:08:05,295 --> 01:08:06,796
I'll see you in the morning?
1484
01:08:07,255 --> 01:08:08,548
- Night, Nora. - Night.
1485
01:08:08,882 --> 01:08:11,218
(soft music)
1486
01:08:13,637 --> 01:08:16,598
(■■)
1487
01:08:19,726 --> 01:08:24,064
So, Adley and Clark finished all
the baking last night.
1488
01:08:24,689 --> 01:08:27,192
And they are at the museum
setting up
1489
01:08:27,984 --> 01:08:31,613
and they want us to finish
stuffing these gift boxes.
1490
01:08:32,030 --> 01:08:33,823
- You got it, boss.
1491
01:08:34,407 --> 01:08:36,618
- We wanna put one Christmas
tree
1492
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:38,995
and one gingerbread in each box.
1493
01:08:39,454 --> 01:08:40,497
- Okay. - Here's a glove.
1494
01:08:40,789 --> 01:08:42,082
- Thanks.
1495
01:08:42,540 --> 01:08:44,251
(cellphone pings) - Oh!
1496
01:08:45,835 --> 01:08:47,254
I've been waiting for this.
1497
01:08:48,421 --> 01:08:49,547
Oh.
1498
01:08:51,633 --> 01:08:53,969
- What's up? - It's from Max.
1499
01:08:54,719 --> 01:08:57,847
The board has scheduled a call
for later today.
1500
01:08:58,473 --> 01:08:59,975
- That's not such a bad thing,
is it?
1501
01:09:00,725 --> 01:09:03,186
- No, but the fit of that
glove's a bad thing.
1502
01:09:04,062 --> 01:09:06,940
Um, why don't you take the boxes
and I will touch the cookies.
1503
01:09:07,649 --> 01:09:11,444
- Deal. So, are you, are you
really worried?
1504
01:09:12,195 --> 01:09:15,824
- I feel like this whole thing
is manufactured.
1505
01:09:16,241 --> 01:09:18,702
Love can't be rushed.
1506
01:09:19,202 --> 01:09:20,287
I mean, if you plant a seed,
1507
01:09:21,037 --> 01:09:23,540
you don't get a plant the next
day.
1508
01:09:24,082 --> 01:09:26,626
It has to grow. It takes time.
1509
01:09:28,503 --> 01:09:31,923
- Nora Winters, are you a
romantic?
1510
01:09:32,382 --> 01:09:35,593
- No. No, of course not.
1511
01:09:35,885 --> 01:09:37,304
I just...
1512
01:09:38,096 --> 01:09:38,972
I don't know why I thought I
could get away
1513
01:09:39,472 --> 01:09:41,057
with faking the whole thing.
1514
01:09:41,599 --> 01:09:43,101
No wonder the board's not happy.
1515
01:09:43,893 --> 01:09:46,271
I never used to write like this.
- And why is that?
1516
01:09:46,938 --> 01:09:48,690
- Well, I used to be a different
person.
1517
01:09:49,274 --> 01:09:51,276
You know, when I started
writing,
1518
01:09:51,943 --> 01:09:53,778
I didn't think about what was
gonna be
1519
01:09:54,529 --> 01:09:56,781
in the comments section, I just
wrote what I felt
1520
01:09:57,198 --> 01:09:58,199
and pushed publish,
1521
01:09:58,825 --> 01:10:00,243
and never gave it a second
thought.
1522
01:10:00,660 --> 01:10:01,786
We need more boxes.
1523
01:10:02,495 --> 01:10:05,081
- Well, that's what made you so
successful.
1524
01:10:05,582 --> 01:10:08,335
- Yeah. But at some point,
1525
01:10:09,002 --> 01:10:10,378
as the site grew and grew and
grew,
1526
01:10:10,795 --> 01:10:12,297
then you know what?
1527
01:10:12,964 --> 01:10:15,467
The scrutiny on me grew and grew
and grew.
1528
01:10:16,343 --> 01:10:19,512
- I think you're admitting that
you're afraid of something.
1529
01:10:20,055 --> 01:10:21,890
Before I took this assignment,
1530
01:10:22,599 --> 01:10:23,600
I went back and I read all your
old writing.
1531
01:10:24,225 --> 01:10:27,604
And you're right, you're not the
same.
1532
01:10:27,979 --> 01:10:29,356
You're better.
1533
01:10:30,982 --> 01:10:33,360
You, you're more thoughtful.
1534
01:10:34,110 --> 01:10:35,820
You come at things from a
stronger point of view.
1535
01:10:36,446 --> 01:10:38,365
And look, I understand your
concerns
1536
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:42,243
but I don't think you actually
have anything to be afraid of.
1537
01:10:43,411 --> 01:10:45,372
- I just don't wanna be a fraud.
1538
01:10:45,747 --> 01:10:47,123
- So, don't be.
1539
01:10:47,540 --> 01:10:49,376
If they want honest,
1540
01:10:49,751 --> 01:10:51,002
give them honest.
1541
01:10:52,670 --> 01:10:53,630
Look, tell the board and your
readers
1542
01:10:54,005 --> 01:10:55,673
that Mr. Haircut,
1543
01:10:56,383 --> 01:10:58,218
or whatever anonymous name you
gave Geoffrey,
1544
01:10:58,676 --> 01:10:59,719
is handsome and charming,
1545
01:11:00,345 --> 01:11:02,180
but you just don't feel it with
him.
1546
01:11:03,807 --> 01:11:04,849
I mean, who cares if you don't
actually
1547
01:11:05,392 --> 01:11:06,684
fall in love before Christmas?
1548
01:11:07,352 --> 01:11:09,396
- Well, that is the title of the
series.
1549
01:11:09,979 --> 01:11:12,107
It would literally ruin it.
1550
01:11:13,608 --> 01:11:14,901
- Not if you're real.
1551
01:11:16,361 --> 01:11:19,614
What are you really feeling,
Nora Winters?
1552
01:11:20,490 --> 01:11:22,409
(soft music)
1553
01:11:28,248 --> 01:11:30,667
- Because if, I mean, if you
write about that,
1554
01:11:31,334 --> 01:11:33,253
I think you'll get your stellar
content.
1555
01:11:33,586 --> 01:11:35,380
(chuckles)
1556
01:11:35,713 --> 01:11:37,424
Which I need.
1557
01:11:37,924 --> 01:11:39,509
- Cheers. (both laugh)
1558
01:11:40,802 --> 01:11:43,138
(soft music)
1559
01:11:43,555 --> 01:11:44,722
(cellphone chimes)
1560
01:11:46,683 --> 01:11:47,725
- Hey.
1561
01:11:48,601 --> 01:11:50,311
(Sara):
1562
01:11:52,605 --> 01:11:54,107
just offered you the full-time
position!
1563
01:11:54,441 --> 01:11:55,316
They want you
1564
01:11:55,942 --> 01:11:56,443
at their holiday company party
tonight
1565
01:11:57,068 --> 01:11:58,153
so they can introduce you to the
team.
1566
01:11:58,945 --> 01:12:00,363
- But I'm in the middle of the
assignment for Prism.
1567
01:12:01,030 --> 01:12:02,073
- Yeah, but you're finished that
tomorrow
1568
01:12:02,782 --> 01:12:04,284
so you can just sneak out a few
hours early.
1569
01:12:04,993 --> 01:12:06,494
- Well, who'd finish shooting
Nora's series?
1570
01:12:07,245 --> 01:12:09,956
- Jack, did you hear the words
that I'm saying?
1571
01:12:10,290 --> 01:12:12,417
Level Eleven.
1572
01:12:12,834 --> 01:12:14,502
Full-time position.
1573
01:12:14,794 --> 01:12:16,004
Big deal.
1574
01:12:21,176 --> 01:12:22,719
- Okay, well, where are we at
with the gallery?
1575
01:12:23,386 --> 01:12:25,763
- Jack, you are being offered
more money
1576
01:12:26,514 --> 01:12:28,475
than any client I've ever had in
my entire career.
1577
01:12:29,142 --> 01:12:30,477
Why are you still thinking so
small?
1578
01:12:31,269 --> 01:12:33,480
- You knew a gallery exhibition
was always the goal.
1579
01:12:33,980 --> 01:12:34,939
- And it will be.
1580
01:12:35,565 --> 01:12:37,484
While you're crushing it at
Level.
1581
01:12:38,151 --> 01:12:39,110
What time can I tell them you'll
be there?
1582
01:12:39,444 --> 01:12:41,154
(soft music)
1583
01:12:41,571 --> 01:12:44,115
- No, I'm not going.
1584
01:12:44,574 --> 01:12:45,492
- Jack, don't be silly.
1585
01:12:47,911 --> 01:12:49,120
you took a chance on me all
those years ago,
1586
01:12:49,829 --> 01:12:52,248
and I'll be forever grateful but
I think...
1587
01:12:53,041 --> 01:12:55,043
I think it's time for me to
focus on other things.
1588
01:12:55,376 --> 01:12:57,337
- Like what?
1589
01:12:58,046 --> 01:13:01,341
- A gallery exhibition. Time
with loved ones.
1590
01:13:01,883 --> 01:13:04,219
Look, I just, I need a change.
1591
01:13:05,011 --> 01:13:08,056
Thank you for everything but I'm
not bailing on Nora.
1592
01:13:08,389 --> 01:13:10,058
She need me.
1593
01:13:10,683 --> 01:13:12,769
This series means too much to
her.
1594
01:13:13,144 --> 01:13:14,479
I'm not going.
1595
01:13:14,771 --> 01:13:16,523
- Wow.
1596
01:13:17,982 --> 01:13:18,983
- Whew.
1597
01:13:19,984 --> 01:13:22,153
(sighs happily)
1598
01:13:23,404 --> 01:13:26,241
(soft music)
1599
01:13:31,996 --> 01:13:34,624
- Look at you. That looks
stunning.
1600
01:13:34,958 --> 01:13:36,125
- Thank you!
1601
01:13:36,834 --> 01:13:38,628
I actually just learned this new
makeup tip.
1602
01:13:39,254 --> 01:13:40,547
You put the white in your water
line
1603
01:13:41,339 --> 01:13:43,258
and then just like, a dash of
glitter in your corner,
1604
01:13:43,758 --> 01:13:44,634
and it makes your eyes pop.
1605
01:13:45,468 --> 01:13:48,555
And then, you use this primer to
smooth out your pores,
1606
01:13:49,264 --> 01:13:53,351
which you literally don't have,
but I do.
1607
01:13:53,768 --> 01:13:55,270
- I didn't realize
1608
01:13:55,895 --> 01:13:56,771
that you knew so much about
makeup.
1609
01:13:57,230 --> 01:13:58,982
- Hmm, trial and error.
1610
01:13:59,607 --> 01:14:00,567
- Listen, I know that you still
have
1611
01:14:01,150 --> 01:14:02,569
another semester at school
1612
01:14:03,403 --> 01:14:05,738
but would you have any interest
in writing for the site?
1613
01:14:06,364 --> 01:14:08,992
I mean, maybe doing a monthly
roundup
1614
01:14:09,659 --> 01:14:11,703
of makeup products, tips you've
learned,
1615
01:14:12,328 --> 01:14:13,413
that kinda thing? - Are you
serious?
1616
01:14:13,955 --> 01:14:15,915
I'd love to. Writing for Prism
1617
01:14:16,583 --> 01:14:18,251
has been my goal since I was
like, eight.
1618
01:14:18,876 --> 01:14:20,587
- Why didn't you ever say
anything?
1619
01:14:21,004 --> 01:14:22,797
- I... I mean...
1620
01:14:23,506 --> 01:14:26,384
I guess I didn't think I had
anything to say.
1621
01:14:27,010 --> 01:14:28,595
I mean, you're such a legend. -
Oh.
1622
01:14:29,304 --> 01:14:31,389
- And I know you took a break
from writing,
1623
01:14:31,931 --> 01:14:33,266
but this thing that you're doing
1624
01:14:33,808 --> 01:14:36,144
with Take 2 Heart, it's so cool.
1625
01:14:37,020 --> 01:14:39,439
And plus, you and Jack are like,
the ultimate creative duo.
1626
01:14:39,814 --> 01:14:41,816
- Oh. (chuckles)
1627
01:14:42,275 --> 01:14:44,944
Well, he is... Talented.
1628
01:14:45,653 --> 01:14:47,530
- Hmm, and he definitely has a
crush on you.
1629
01:14:47,905 --> 01:14:49,574
- Okay. - Mm-hmm.
1630
01:14:49,907 --> 01:14:50,825
(chuckling)
1631
01:14:51,159 --> 01:14:52,702
- So, tell me
1632
01:14:53,411 --> 01:14:54,954
whatever other magic makeup
tricks you have.
1633
01:14:55,288 --> 01:14:56,539
- Oh! Okay.
1634
01:14:57,957 --> 01:15:00,627
(joyful music)
1635
01:15:03,212 --> 01:15:04,756
(Adley): Oh no! - Whoa, whoa! I
got it!
1636
01:15:05,173 --> 01:15:07,216
- Oh no! Oh, gosh.
1637
01:15:07,634 --> 01:15:08,760
- Okay. - Oh, sorry.
1638
01:15:09,469 --> 01:15:11,721
I thought I was tall enough to
reach the top.
1639
01:15:12,347 --> 01:15:14,557
- Oh, well, allow me. - Thank
you.
1640
01:15:16,267 --> 01:15:17,352
- There you go.
1641
01:15:18,353 --> 01:15:19,646
- Look,
1642
01:15:20,396 --> 01:15:22,398
I know that Nora didn't
intentionally invite you
1643
01:15:22,857 --> 01:15:24,525
to our little fundraiser
1644
01:15:25,318 --> 01:15:27,278
but we are all so glad that you
and Kyle are here.
1645
01:15:27,945 --> 01:15:29,656
- Are you kidding? I'm honored
to be here.
1646
01:15:30,281 --> 01:15:32,033
And you have a really special
family.
1647
01:15:32,742 --> 01:15:34,661
And Nora, well, she's -- - She's
pretty great.
1648
01:15:35,161 --> 01:15:36,788
(soft music)
1649
01:15:38,581 --> 01:15:40,667
Look, I don't mean to overstep,
1650
01:15:41,084 --> 01:15:43,252
but in my experience,
1651
01:15:43,753 --> 01:15:45,880
telling someone how you feel,
1652
01:15:46,339 --> 01:15:47,757
it's always a good idea.
1653
01:15:49,175 --> 01:15:50,802
- Hmm.
1654
01:15:54,430 --> 01:15:56,683
(■■)
1655
01:16:00,353 --> 01:16:02,522
- Oh, hey. Looks good.
1656
01:16:05,566 --> 01:16:07,568
(sighs) (cellphone pings)
1657
01:16:09,112 --> 01:16:11,364
(soft music)
1658
01:16:14,867 --> 01:16:16,077
What?!
1659
01:16:18,204 --> 01:16:19,330
- Everything is set up. - Wow!
1660
01:16:19,997 --> 01:16:21,666
Great set-up! (Clark): Nice
work, Jack.
1661
01:16:22,834 --> 01:16:23,835
(Jack): Hi, guys.
1662
01:16:26,170 --> 01:16:27,714
- Yeah, looks good.
1663
01:16:28,589 --> 01:16:30,425
(Lola): Okay, Winters family,
let's get this party started!
1664
01:16:30,883 --> 01:16:32,677
- Yeah! - Bye, see ya.
1665
01:16:33,052 --> 01:16:33,720
- So exciting!
1666
01:16:34,137 --> 01:16:36,013
(orchestral music)
1667
01:16:43,271 --> 01:16:44,856
(camera shutter snaps) - Magic.
And you know what?
1668
01:16:45,648 --> 01:16:47,567
Here's a donation slip in case
you wanna contribute
1669
01:16:48,234 --> 01:16:49,402
to the bakery's free programs
that give--
1670
01:16:49,652 --> 01:16:50,695
Hey.
1671
01:16:53,156 --> 01:16:54,741
Uh, sorry, give back to the
community.
1672
01:16:55,658 --> 01:16:57,118
In addition, I'll be giving away
a free photography class
1673
01:16:57,577 --> 01:16:59,245
to all donors, thank you.
1674
01:17:01,038 --> 01:17:02,749
Hi, guys.
1675
01:17:03,416 --> 01:17:04,167
Yeah, if you can just... a
little closer.
1676
01:17:04,500 --> 01:17:05,877
There we go.
1677
01:17:06,377 --> 01:17:07,754
- Hi. Thank you for coming.
1678
01:17:08,379 --> 01:17:09,380
- Oh, my pleasure. - Good to see
you.
1679
01:17:09,797 --> 01:17:11,758
- Yeah, you too. Oh.
1680
01:17:12,133 --> 01:17:13,760
- Oh... yeah.
1681
01:17:14,385 --> 01:17:15,970
We're getting there, but you
know...
1682
01:17:16,471 --> 01:17:18,181
It could be better. - Mm-hmm.
1683
01:17:18,931 --> 01:17:20,725
- Uh, well, let me show you...
Oh, you remember.
1684
01:17:21,142 --> 01:17:22,018
(Geoffrey): Yeah, hi.
1685
01:17:22,769 --> 01:17:23,770
(Adley): Nice to see you.
(Nora): Let me show you
1686
01:17:24,437 --> 01:17:24,937
the rest of the-- (Geoffrey):
Certainly.
1687
01:17:27,648 --> 01:17:30,526
(surrounding chatter)
1688
01:17:33,529 --> 01:17:35,782
- Hey, Katy, it's Jack Paxton.
1689
01:17:36,365 --> 01:17:37,325
Yeah, it's been a while.
1690
01:17:38,075 --> 01:17:39,452
Hey, listen, is your company
still looking to make
1691
01:17:40,203 --> 01:17:41,954
some donations before the end of
the fiscal year?
1692
01:17:43,748 --> 01:17:45,792
Well, I think I might have the
perfect charity for you.
1693
01:17:47,251 --> 01:17:48,503
Yeah.
1694
01:17:49,045 --> 01:17:51,297
That's so generous, thank you.
1695
01:17:54,425 --> 01:17:57,011
- I am telling you, it is wild,
man.
1696
01:17:57,512 --> 01:17:59,472
Yeah. Well, that Nora Winters
1697
01:17:59,972 --> 01:18:01,849
is actually writing about me.
1698
01:18:02,391 --> 01:18:04,894
Well, yeah, because I'm Mr. G.
1699
01:18:07,104 --> 01:18:08,105
Well, yeah, of course, she's
nice,
1700
01:18:08,606 --> 01:18:09,732
she's great, but you know,
1701
01:18:10,399 --> 01:18:12,235
but her name next to mine, this
is huge.
1702
01:18:12,652 --> 01:18:13,736
Hey, tell you what,
1703
01:18:14,487 --> 01:18:15,822
see if you can get me an
interview with The Post
1704
01:18:16,614 --> 01:18:17,782
and I can do one of those kinda
you know,
1705
01:18:18,241 --> 01:18:19,826
tell-all kinda things.
1706
01:18:20,159 --> 01:18:21,702
Oh yeah.
1707
01:18:22,453 --> 01:18:23,663
Yeah, 'cause this'll be great
for my business.
1708
01:18:24,413 --> 01:18:25,832
And you know what? They will eat
this stuff up.
1709
01:18:26,457 --> 01:18:27,834
- Looks good, right? - Oh!
1710
01:18:28,668 --> 01:18:30,378
(cellphone pings) - Yeah, couple
more down here.
1711
01:18:31,003 --> 01:18:33,130
- Max, hi. -
1712
01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:34,841
to call you on Christmas Eve but
I wanted you
1713
01:18:35,341 --> 01:18:35,967
to hear it from me.
1714
01:18:36,634 --> 01:18:38,636
- Oh, is this about Jack and
Level Eleven?
1715
01:18:39,053 --> 01:18:39,846
- Yeah, no, I heard,
1716
01:18:40,555 --> 01:18:42,265
but this is about you and the
column.
1717
01:18:42,598 --> 01:18:44,600
I'm so sorry.
1718
01:18:45,101 --> 01:18:46,310
I just heard from the board.
1719
01:18:51,607 --> 01:18:52,733
thrilled with some recent
developments.
1720
01:18:53,192 --> 01:18:54,151
I just sent you an email.
1721
01:18:59,365 --> 01:19:01,033
- "Nora Winters'
1722
01:19:01,701 --> 01:19:03,327
How to Fall in Love by Christmas
series
1723
01:19:04,036 --> 01:19:06,998
was completely fake, an inside
source says."
1724
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:10,376
Wow.
1725
01:19:10,877 --> 01:19:12,253
- Any idea who the source is?
1726
01:19:12,962 --> 01:19:15,047
- Well, Jack, right? Who else
could it be?
1727
01:19:16,966 --> 01:19:19,260
- I'm sorry, Nora. Merry
Christmas.
1728
01:19:21,721 --> 01:19:23,890
- Hey, I was looking for you. -
Oh, you were?
1729
01:19:24,390 --> 01:19:25,641
Were you gonna tell me?
1730
01:19:25,975 --> 01:19:27,894
What is this?
1731
01:19:28,686 --> 01:19:31,022
- I don't know but listen,
Geoffrey, he's using you.
1732
01:19:31,480 --> 01:19:33,065
- Geoffrey's using me.
1733
01:19:33,774 --> 01:19:35,902
Ha, you would say that because
you used me.
1734
01:19:36,485 --> 01:19:38,154
- That's not true.
1735
01:19:38,821 --> 01:19:41,824
- Oh, so you didn't basically
rat me out
1736
01:19:42,491 --> 01:19:43,910
with the work that we did for my
column
1737
01:19:44,619 --> 01:19:46,579
by selling it to a rival site
for more money?
1738
01:19:46,996 --> 01:19:48,915
- That was my agent.
1739
01:19:49,707 --> 01:19:52,793
- And you didn't know that she
was doing that?
1740
01:19:55,296 --> 01:19:57,840
So, you're just basically
motivated by money
1741
01:19:58,299 --> 01:20:00,885
and this was all a lie.
1742
01:20:01,510 --> 01:20:02,637
- Says the woman totally
comfortable
1743
01:20:03,095 --> 01:20:04,388
faking falling in love.
1744
01:20:05,014 --> 01:20:08,017
- Well, at least I'm trying to
change.
1745
01:20:08,351 --> 01:20:09,936
Unlike you.
1746
01:20:10,478 --> 01:20:11,938
- You know what? Forget it.
1747
01:20:12,772 --> 01:20:15,066
This was a waste of time. -
Yeah, it was a waste of time.
1748
01:20:15,691 --> 01:20:17,360
Why don't you just go have a
great,
1749
01:20:18,027 --> 01:20:20,780
fun Christmas party at your new
company.
1750
01:20:21,113 --> 01:20:22,949
(soft music)
1751
01:20:26,077 --> 01:20:27,828
- Everything all right?
1752
01:20:28,162 --> 01:20:29,497
- Uh, yeah.
1753
01:20:32,917 --> 01:20:36,963
(soft music)
1754
01:20:44,095 --> 01:20:45,429
- How're we doing?
1755
01:20:46,097 --> 01:20:48,975
- Um... might have to cut back a
little.
1756
01:20:49,392 --> 01:20:51,394
- The foundation,
1757
01:20:52,019 --> 01:20:53,521
that's not what Mom would've
wanted.
1758
01:20:54,230 --> 01:20:55,898
- Sometimes you just have to
face the facts
1759
01:20:56,524 --> 01:20:57,984
that things don't always go your
way.
1760
01:20:58,401 --> 01:20:59,568
- What's with you?
1761
01:20:59,860 --> 01:21:01,445
(sighs)
1762
01:21:01,904 --> 01:21:02,989
This whole silly thing,
1763
01:21:03,698 --> 01:21:05,157
this partnership with Take 2
Heart,
1764
01:21:05,992 --> 01:21:08,160
I just... I shouldn't have let
myself get pushed into it.
1765
01:21:08,703 --> 01:21:10,997
- But you started writing and...
1766
01:21:11,706 --> 01:21:13,416
And you have real feelings for
someone, yeah?
1767
01:21:13,833 --> 01:21:15,751
- Hey, there you are.
1768
01:21:16,419 --> 01:21:19,005
I have been looking for you
everywhere.
1769
01:21:19,755 --> 01:21:21,048
Did you wanna go do the photo
booth?
1770
01:21:21,382 --> 01:21:24,593
- Um... I...
1771
01:21:26,345 --> 01:21:29,015
Are you... Are you recording
right now?
1772
01:21:29,515 --> 01:21:31,100
- Well, uh...
1773
01:21:31,767 --> 01:21:35,021
Well, yeah. I mean, but can you
blame me?
1774
01:21:35,730 --> 01:21:37,773
Well, because you're Nora
Winters
1775
01:21:38,441 --> 01:21:39,608
and I just thought it would be a
good idea
1776
01:21:40,026 --> 01:21:41,402
if I had some proof.
1777
01:21:41,694 --> 01:21:43,029
- Proof?
1778
01:21:43,446 --> 01:21:45,114
- That I'm Mr. G.
1779
01:21:45,614 --> 01:21:47,199
- Why would you need proof?
1780
01:21:47,908 --> 01:21:49,452
- Because I am getting so much
more investors
1781
01:21:49,910 --> 01:21:50,786
interested in my company
1782
01:21:51,412 --> 01:21:52,955
by mentioning you in the
interviews.
1783
01:21:53,372 --> 01:21:55,583
- Interviews? - Yeah.
1784
01:21:56,167 --> 01:21:57,460
And I've got another one
tomorrow.
1785
01:21:58,127 --> 01:21:59,754
I just wanna make sure I can,
you know,
1786
01:22:00,254 --> 01:22:01,255
quote everything factually.
1787
01:22:01,714 --> 01:22:05,468
- Okay, wow. Um, uh...
1788
01:22:06,218 --> 01:22:10,222
I don't... I don't think this is
gonna work out.
1789
01:22:10,681 --> 01:22:12,224
- What about your column?
1790
01:22:12,516 --> 01:22:13,976
- Uh...
1791
01:22:14,435 --> 01:22:16,103
- Nora, hold on. Wait!
1792
01:22:16,604 --> 01:22:18,647
- Geoffrey, um, I think...
1793
01:22:19,315 --> 01:22:20,399
I think it's time we excuse
ourselves.
1794
01:22:20,733 --> 01:22:21,817
I'll just...
1795
01:22:22,485 --> 01:22:23,069
Just, just come this way, okay?
- Ah...
1796
01:22:23,569 --> 01:22:24,445
- It's okay.
1797
01:22:26,739 --> 01:22:28,199
- Hey, buddy.
1798
01:22:29,075 --> 01:22:30,993
I think it's time to pack up our
things and head out, okay?
1799
01:22:31,243 --> 01:22:32,578
Here.
1800
01:22:36,957 --> 01:22:39,710
(indistinct chatter)
1801
01:22:40,377 --> 01:22:42,421
- I was totally wrong about
everything.
1802
01:22:42,963 --> 01:22:45,424
I mean, Geoffrey was so obvious.
1803
01:22:46,092 --> 01:22:47,009
I should've known what was going
on there,
1804
01:22:47,510 --> 01:22:49,095
right away. - Sure, but Jack?
1805
01:22:49,929 --> 01:22:51,097
I mean, I've seen the way you
two look at each other.
1806
01:22:51,889 --> 01:22:55,101
- Adley, he used me as a
bargaining tool.
1807
01:22:55,476 --> 01:22:57,019
- No, he didn't.
1808
01:22:57,561 --> 01:22:59,480
No, Nora, last time I saw him,
1809
01:23:00,189 --> 01:23:02,316
he was doing everything he could
to fundraise.
1810
01:23:02,650 --> 01:23:04,860
He did it.
1811
01:23:05,361 --> 01:23:06,487
Apparently, he knew people
1812
01:23:07,113 --> 01:23:08,656
who wanted to donate to that
cause.
1813
01:23:08,989 --> 01:23:10,407
We're good.
1814
01:23:10,783 --> 01:23:12,118
- He left to go
1815
01:23:12,952 --> 01:23:14,620
to Level Eleven's Christmas
party tonight.
1816
01:23:14,995 --> 01:23:15,788
- No, he didn't.
1817
01:23:17,123 --> 01:23:18,791
He fired his agent,
1818
01:23:19,458 --> 01:23:21,127
he turned down the job at Level
Eleven.
1819
01:23:21,919 --> 01:23:23,629
I heard him. I heard him do it
with my own two ears.
1820
01:23:23,921 --> 01:23:25,506
(exhales)
1821
01:23:25,798 --> 01:23:26,966
- Listen.
1822
01:23:28,425 --> 01:23:32,555
He lights you up in a way I
haven't seen in years.
1823
01:23:33,222 --> 01:23:36,142
You two have something really
special.
1824
01:23:37,017 --> 01:23:39,562
And I would think twice about
letting it go.
1825
01:23:39,895 --> 01:23:42,648
(soft music)
1826
01:23:47,570 --> 01:23:49,155
(sighs)
1827
01:23:51,490 --> 01:23:53,367
(paper crinkling)
1828
01:24:14,555 --> 01:24:19,185
(gentle music)
1829
01:24:32,990 --> 01:24:34,617
(sighs)
1830
01:24:42,583 --> 01:24:45,085
- Hey, Max, um...
1831
01:24:45,753 --> 01:24:47,630
I'm gonna go live with one more
piece.
1832
01:24:49,381 --> 01:24:50,299
- Yes, hi, I'd like
1833
01:24:50,925 --> 01:24:52,468
to book a hotel room for a few
nights.
1834
01:24:53,010 --> 01:24:55,179
- Hey, where are you two headed?
1835
01:24:55,804 --> 01:24:57,431
Santa's coming here in a few
hours.
1836
01:24:58,098 --> 01:24:59,225
This is the address I told him
to go to.
1837
01:24:59,767 --> 01:25:00,476
- Mom! - Sorry,
1838
01:25:01,018 --> 01:25:01,894
I'm gonna have to call you back.
1839
01:25:02,561 --> 01:25:06,190
- It's a Christmas miracle. -
But how?
1840
01:25:07,024 --> 01:25:09,944
- I had a little help from Nora
and a little bit of luck.
1841
01:25:10,819 --> 01:25:12,655
The hospital was fully staffed.
They didn't need me tonight.
1842
01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:14,698
(cellphone pings) - Sorry, one
sec.
1843
01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:12,298
- Nora Winters, I think you just
saved your job.
1844
01:26:25,060 --> 01:26:27,021
- What are you waiting for? Go!
1845
01:26:27,438 --> 01:26:28,772
- Yeah? - Yeah, go.
1846
01:26:29,064 --> 01:26:30,316
- Okay.
1847
01:26:33,235 --> 01:26:36,447
(hopeful music)
1848
01:26:36,822 --> 01:26:38,324
(cellphone pings)
1849
01:26:54,923 --> 01:26:56,383
- Did you read my post?
1850
01:26:58,302 --> 01:27:00,679
- I'm very impressed.
1851
01:27:01,263 --> 01:27:03,599
- Impressed enough to forgive
me?
1852
01:27:06,018 --> 01:27:07,770
(soft music)
1853
01:27:19,198 --> 01:27:20,366
- It's bad luck not to kiss
under the mistletoe.
1854
01:27:21,742 --> 01:27:22,409
- It's gross.
1855
01:27:22,701 --> 01:27:24,870
(laughs)
1856
01:27:26,580 --> 01:27:28,665
So, Jack Paxton,
1857
01:27:29,166 --> 01:27:30,918
in your professional opinion,
1858
01:27:31,710 --> 01:27:33,837
do you think that you can fall
in love by Christmas?
1859
01:27:34,171 --> 01:27:36,006
- Absolutely.
1860
01:27:36,298 --> 01:27:37,925
Do you?
1861
01:27:39,343 --> 01:27:41,220
- Absolutely.
1862
01:27:44,890 --> 01:27:47,601
(■■)
1863
01:27:47,893 --> 01:27:49,603
Oh, look!
1864
01:27:50,145 --> 01:27:52,106
(chuckling) (Adley): You guys!
1865
01:27:52,564 --> 01:27:54,525
Look how beautiful. Aw.
1866
01:27:55,067 --> 01:27:57,528
You look very handsome together.
1867
01:27:57,861 --> 01:28:00,572
(soft music)
1868
01:28:00,948 --> 01:28:58,922
(joyful music)
