Your Honor.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...

as the evidence shows,

my client is not only wrongly accused,

but is a victim of corruption

at the highest level.

[lawyer] Objection.

Your Honor, there is no evidence

that any other entities

were involved in this case.

The defense

is purposely attempting to mislead the court.

You're on thin ice, Counselor.

My apologies, Your Honor.

Opposing counsel is correct.

We couldn't find any proof

that my client was framed.

Until we searched his office.

[door opens]

Your Honor, my client is innocent.

This case is dismissed,

and all charges are dropped.

My name is cleared

and I'll be home in time for Christmas.

Thank you, Clint.

You're welcome.

And, Counselor...

...you're out of order.

[audience applauding]

We want to thank you all

for your hard work

on the season finale of Handsome Justice.

We had a great season

and we cannot wait to get back to work in the new year.

Now, please, everyone,

ask Santa Claus

to pick us up for another season.

[audience chuckles]

Uh, Mike, did you want to say a few words?

And turn down a captive audience?

Never.

[audience chuckles]

To me, this is a dream job,

and it's a privilege to work with all of you.

When I moved out here from New York,

I didn't know what to expect,

but, together, we've built something really special

that will hopefully continue for many years to come.

The network isn't sure about another season.

Haven't they seen our ratings?

We almost beat that pet detective show.

Yeah, new corporate leadership,

and you know how that goes.

Is there anything we can do?

Pray for a Christmas miracle.

And keep this news to yourself.

There's no point in worrying everyone

over the holiday break, hmm?

[♪♪]

[phone ringing]

Hey, Mom and Dad.

Hey!

How's our favorite TV lawyer?

Good, good.

All wrapped up for the season,

and everything is...

super...

super good!

Great. Hopefully, now you get some time off.

Maybe more than I'd like.

What was that?

Hmm?

I was just saying, yeah, I'll have--

I'll have some time off.

Oh, well, that's perfect

because I have a--

well, we-- we have a project

that we need your help with.

What kind of project?

Oh, one that's going to bring back

all kinds of happy memories.

And one that you cannot say no to

because it is for your beloved parents.

No way.

You're not...

Bringing back the Christmas House?

Yes, we are!

I know it's been a long time.

Decades, actually.

Yeah, and it's a lot of work.

So much work.

But we really want to do it one more time.

I'm finally retired now,

and I've got a lot of time

to be able to spend with your guys,

and this is something we can do together.

That's right.

But Christmas Eve is in two weeks.

You guys do remember

it used to take us an entire month

to move out all the furniture,

hang the decorations inside, outside the house,

set up the animatronics.

You can't do it all in two weeks.

Yes, we can.

We've already called your brother,

and he's got the bakery in for a remodel,

and Jake can work from anywhere,

so they are coming tomorrow to help.

They are?

Oh, yeah. Flying in tomorrow afternoon.

So, this is really happening.

After 20 years,

the Christmas House is coming back.

But it's not just that.

Christmas...

it's about traditions.

This was ours.

And I miss it.

Look, we know you're busy, honey,

but this would really mean a lot to your mother.

And to me.

Sure.

Yeah, I will pack tonight and change my flight.

Thank you, honey.

Love you.

Yeah. Love you, too.

[♪♪]

No updates yet.

Has anyone ever actually died from suspense?

You sure you don't want to tell your family yet?

I mean, we're about to be in close quarters with them

for the next couple weeks.

It might to be hard

to keep this a secret.

Look, adoptions fall through

all the time.

It's hard enough for us during this process.

I don't want to get their hopes up

until we're at the finish line.

[Mike] You're out of order!

Handsome Justice?

No?

Nothing? Oh...

Sir, all I can do for you right now

is put an alert in the system.

When your bag is located,

we'll deliver it to you.

Great.

[Brandon] Oh, my gosh!

It's Clint Handsome!

Can we get a selfie with you?

We are your biggest fans.

Yeah.

[click]

You guys do know I actually have fans.

Besides our parents?

[service representative] Excuse me.

Can you move to the side, please?

Yeah.

So, Jake, you think you're ready for this?

The legendary Mitchell Family Christmas House?

No surface inside or out is left untouched.

The electric bill alone--

record-breaking.

Construction, painting, hanging snowflakes.

Glitter everywhere.

And don't forget the trees.

And tons of indoor fake snow.

But you really think

it's gonna take all of us two weeks

to put this together?

He has no idea.

No.

-It's probably for the best. -Yeah.

-We need to grab the rental car. -I'll drive.

I can do it.

Jake, can you hold this for a second?

[♪♪]

Yep, that was him!

Clint Handsome.

Whoo!

No, I'm not going to do that.

[♪♪]

They're here!

Hey! Welcome home!

Oh!

Hey, buddy.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[Mom] The dynamic duo.

I've come a long way since Majestic Mike.

Thank goodness.

She's back, you know?

She... she moved home after the divorce.

Oh?

Maybe you guys could bring back the old act.

Oh, I think magic was just a phase for us.

They don't really hand out

cool points to magicians in high school.

Well, I was proud.

It took guts to get up on that stage,

do those tricks.

And you guys were great.

Hey, why is Dad's watch in here?

He is always leaving this thing around.

Honey...

I'm so glad that you are here.

I thank you for coming home early.

[whistle blowing]

Family meeting! Pronto!

Men...

we've got a heck of a task ahead of us,

and it's going to take a strong will

and a mighty heart

to get it all done.

She's been like this all week.

This is the Christmas House punch list and schedule,

divided by category and chores for each person.

Wow.

Can I just say

that after hearing about

the famous Mitchell Christmas House

for years,

I am so honored

and thrilled to be a part of this operation.

Thank you, Jake.

Have I told you lately you're my favorite son-in-law?

You might be her favorite son, period,

if you're going to be this peppy.

All right, guys, I need you to focus, come on.

Bill?

Who taught Dad PowerPoint?

I took a class at the library.

In the beginning,

it was nothing but a dream--

a dream inspired

by the Hudson Valley holiday-house tours,

and a desire for dazzling decorations

that would outdo them all--

but no dream--

no dream--

can become a reality without someone to lead the way,

and so, family,

without further ado,

I give you Mom.

[Mom] Step one--clean-out.

Now, Mike, you and your dad

are going to pick up the truck,

so that we can load it up and get the decorations in here.

You guys still have those decorations?

Some of those have got to be, what, 40 years old.

So's your sense of style,

but you don't hear us saying anything about it.

Hey, it's part of the charm of it--

bringing back the old favorites.

Step two--

set up the animatronics

and start hanging the ceiling ornaments.

Step three, the trains.

-Trains? -They have their own room.

Step four--

hang the garlands and trim the trees.

Now, Mike, I'm putting you in charge of those.

We need a firm needle,

and six to seven feet tall,

and a gently-sloping triangle shape.

Can you remember what I taught you

is the most important thing about choosing a tree?

A sturdy limb is perfect to trim.

You know, in my opinion, 1997 was our best year.

It was just great attention to detail.

And, Mike,

you really delivered on the garland fluffing.

It just--quality fluffing.

Thank you.

Brandon, I need you to step up this year.

-Make me proud, buddy. -Sir, yes, sir.

What's with the--

-Oh, yeah. -[laughing]

I fell asleep on the couch,

and Brandon thought it would be a fun idea to maim me.

[Jake] No.

[Brandon] It's called manscaping.

-No. It's not. -[Mom] All right.

All right, step five--

snow--lay the snow, garnish the rooms.

Step six--

outdoor lighting,

and figurines,

and the staging--

and I'm so excited about this

because you know what they have now

that we didn't have when you all were young?

Inflatable yard decor.

Oh, boy.

Step seven--

that's cookies and the candy canes.

That's my favorite part.

Well, good.

Because you're gonna need to make 12 dozen of everything

this year.

Question.

Yes, Brandon?

Will Majestic Mike be performing?

Oh... Majestic Mike.

He was a neighborhood favorite.

No, thank you. I hung up my cape.

Well, we still have time to change your mind.

So...

you guys got your marching orders.

We start tomorrow, bright and early. Any questions?

I, for one, am honored to participate.

Yeah.

It'll be fine.

Fun! It'll be fun.

Christmas waits for no man.

Let's do this.

[whistle blowing]

[repeated whistle tweets]

Aw, Mom! Aw!

[♪♪]

[Mom] Most of this is already scheduled, and...

[yawns] Tell me there's coffee.

[Mom] Mike.

Mike, honey.

Do you guys have oat milk,

or any dairy alternatives?

Mike Mitchell.

You've gone totally Hollywood.

[Mom laughs]

Andi Cruz.

Hi, Mike.

Nice outfit.

Yeah. Yeah.

The airline--

the airline lost my luggage.

What are you doing here?

Mike.

I'm sorry.

I... I just didn't expect

to find Andi Cruz in our kitchen...

this morning.

We're staying at my Mom's for now.

Ah, you're next door?

Just like old times.

[Mom] Andi's son, Noah, is at my school.

Can you believe the timing?

If I had stayed just one more year,

we could have been there together.

[Andi] Oh, well,

if you were still working,

who would oversee the Christmas House?

Ah... roped in like the rest of us.

Are you kidding?

You couldn't keep me away.

This is the best part of Christmas.

Okay, Andi, this has been fun.

Really good to see you again.

Um, but I've got to run,

put on something--

literally, anything else.

[Andi] That's a great idea.

Okay. Andi Cruz.

[laughing]

[♪♪]

[whistle blowing]

Your father's downstairs,

ready to get the truck.

Was that really necessary?

[tweets repeatedly]

[Mike] They're still doing the same show.

[Dad] Every year.

Hey, you remember when you were the head elf?

You wouldn't stop taking curtain calls.

Elena had to literally carry you off the stage.

Should have known back then you'd become an actor.

Is Andi's mom still running the place?

Oh, yeah.

And she's very proud

that one of her performers now has his own TV show.

Hey, I get the sense

that this whole Christmas House thing

is more Mom than you.

No, no. We both wanted to do it.

Hmm.

It just seemed like a sudden decision,

when, normally, you guys are such planners.

Well, it's not just your mother and me.

It's for everybody.

But it would be nice

if your brother and you

would maybe try to make this

a special Christmas for your mom.

There have been a lot of changes this year,

and I think...

it's hard to adjust.

I thought she'd be happy to be retired.

-You were. -I was.

I still am,

but your mom and I are very different.

We are so happy to have you boys home.

I'm happy to be home.

Hey...

I saw Andi this morning.

Does she come by a lot, or?

Is that you asking or Majestic Mike?

I was just surprised, that's all.

I haven't talked to her in a long time.

I'm surprised you two haven't stayed in touch.

You share a lot of history.

Yeah.

Careful, guys, that's my favorite.

It's also incredibly heavy.

Because it's real oak.

I can't remember this weighing so much.

Because I bought it last year.

I don't remember this being so hard.

Me either.

All you used to care about

is who could get the most boxes in the truck

in the least amount of time.

[neck cracks]

Winner gets 20 bucks.

Bring it.

Oh, I hope you both have sons one day.

Hello?

-Hello! -Hey.

Hi.

I come bearing coffee.

How neighborly of you.

I'm sorry it's not a fermented chia-seed smoothie

or whatever celebrities drink.

Don't knock it till you've tried it.

I'm kidding.

Fermented chia-seed smoothies-- so last year.

I must say,

I'm a bit disappointed

not to see what other high-school clothes

might be lurking in your closet.

And I am sorry to rob you

of the chance of seeing me in a sweet mock turtleneck,

but my luggage arrived.

Who are those guys?

I'd like to point out

that we're the ones doing the heavy lifting

while Mike appears to be on a coffee break.

And I'd like to point out

that we're way too old to be tattling.

Andi! Hi!

Hi! Surprise!

As much as I enjoy moving,

I thought that this would make the day easier

on all of us,

so put down the boxes,

take a coffee.

I guess I should have brought champagne, but--

Just show the movers what needs to go where.

Oh, we'll show them.

By the way, bro, our deal is off,

however, I win.

Mm.

[Brandon] Come on, babe. Boys, follow me!

Well, this was very thoughtful of you, Andi.

You didn't have to do this.

Oh, it's the least I could do for my favorite new clients.

I'm so grateful for the listing,

and I'm committed to finding you the right buyer.

You guys are selling the house?

When were you going to tell us you're selling the house?

We were going to bring it up last night,

but it was...

well, it was so lovely just being together,

and we decided to wait,

and then we've been so busy today.

I'm so sorry...

I'm so sorry.

I assumed that everybody knew.

It's fine.

I'm actually relieved that the cat's out of the bag.

And I'll make sure

that whoever moves into the house next

loves it as-- as much as you do.

I'm still processing.

Where will you guys go?

Are you leaving town? What's the time table on this?

Well...

We're still working that out.

This is why you wanted

to do the Christmas House this year, isn't it?

Because this is the last time we'll all be here together.

It was a hard decision, but it's the right one.

And we can talk about this later, okay?

I'm sorry.

Yeah.

But don't be too hard on them.

It's Christmas.

Thank you for the coffee.

-And the movers. -Of course.

You mind if we stop at the store?

I told Mom I'd cook.

Earth to Mike.

Something doesn't seem right.

What does that mean?

Why are they selling the house?

Downsizing is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

That's a lot of house for two people.

The real question is, why are you so upset about it?

It's my childhood home.

It's mine, too.

And you don't feel

anything about the fact it's our last Christmas there?

Sure, I do.

But as much as I love that house,

it's part of my past.

I had my time there,

so did you,

and now it'll belong to the next family.

You think you're so wise.

It's about time you recognized it.

I am brimming with wisdom.

I am up to my eyeballs in wisdom.

Do you want to hear some more?

No, I think I'm good, thank you.

-Sometimes, you look-- -All good.

Just saying.

Oh, look at "Muscles."

[click]

You're on TV. I've seen your show.

Yeah?

It's always nice to meet a fan.

Well, I said I've seen the show--

not that I like it.

Oh.

Mike, this is my son, Noah.

Hey, Noah.

He's playing it cool, he absolutely loves your show.

My mom always says

she knew there was something special about you.

Your mom said that?

I doubt I said that.

No, you did.

You said it when we watched the show last week.

You were all like,

"Ah, I always knew there was

something special about that guy."

He has you confused with someone else.

It must be the other guy from our high school

with the TV show.

No, no, no, no.

I don't-- She was-- She was talking about you.

I told him that we were professional colleagues.

You know, Majestic Mike and Awesome Andi.

That was the extent of my stage career.

So, do you still do magic?

No, not since my stage partner quit on me.

Retired.

Okay, bud.

It's time for homework and dinner.

[sighs]

Okay.

Well, it was nice meeting you.

Likewise.

See you tomorrow?

You will?

Tree day.

Right.

-Bye! -See ya, Noah.

[sifter sifting]

[Mom, in memory] Okay, Brandon,

we just pull this,

and this is powdered sugar,

and you just pull that handle, okay?

-Yeah. -Just pull it.

[Young Mike] Mom!

Pull it hard. Pull it easy.

[Young Mike] Brandon!

Come back a little more on this--

Oh! Oh, ho!

Oh...

Well...

we'll figure it out.

Did you do a double-knot this time?

Yeah, smart.

[Mom laughing]

Some things never change.

Well, people love my rosettes.

I'm one of them.

They're on the menu at the bakery.

A tribute to you.

Aw!

Wow.

Who would have thought,

after all this time in here with me at the holidays,

would turn you into a bonafide professional?

Certainly not me.

Remember the first time I made spice bars?

You could have broken a window with those things.

Yeah.

Maybe I can come and visit you in Denver after the holidays.

Sure.

We'd love having you and Dad--

especially during ski season.

I meant, just me.

Solo girls' trip?

Got the time now. Why not?

Hey...

You are welcome any time.

[laughing]

[whistle blows]

I sent Mike and Andi to the tree lot.

Hey, Jake, what do you call

a Christmas tree that knows kung-fu?

-What? -Spruce Lee.

It's a Dad joke.

Brandon and Jake,

I need you to get started on the outside.

Bill, I'm putting you on party invitations.

That should be easy for you

since you're always out and about anyway.

That's generally what one does when one is retired,

and you know I like to keep busy.

Yes, you do.

I'm going to organize the inside decorations,

and tonight...

we'll hang the ornaments.

Now, get out there and make Christmas happen!

[whistles]

On it.

Guys, come on!

How about this one?

No, this one.

Whoa. This one for sure.

Yeah, that's a winner.

That's perfect.

Now we just need four more like it.

On it!

You know, being on tree duty with you guys

got me out of untangling twinkly lights,

so thank you for that.

I thought Noah would enjoy it.

I did when I was a kid.

You know, it really surprised me

how you reacted to your parents selling the house.

It's...

it's been a long time since you lived here.

This place has always been home base.

I've moved a lot, but...

it was just nice

knowing it was always here if I needed it.

That's how I feel, too.

After the divorce,

I couldn't imagine going anywhere else.

So...

tell me about L.A.

Tell me about

all the glamorous parties that you go to every night.

More like in bed by 9:00 p.m. every night

because of early call times

and even earlier workouts

with a trainer

that does not care if I want a social life.

That has pretty much been my life the last three years.

Stars--they're just like us.

Except, instead of

early-morning workouts with a trainer,

I have a 10-year-old,

so soccer practice, homework, bedtime.

While other people go out, or, I don't know, sleep,

I usually catch up on work.

You ever wonder what all the hustle is for?

Hey, guys! I think I found another one!

It's for him.

When Noah's father moved overseas,

it felt so nice to be in a place that was familiar,

you know?

Like, people know you and care about you,

vice versa.

And he gets to experience

everything I loved about this place,

and I get to experience it with him all again.

That sounds pretty great.

Wow! Look at this one!

What do you think?

Ooh, looks good.

Before we decide,

choose a branch and give it a little tug.

If any of the needles come off in your hand,

then you know it's too dry.

Okay.

Did you get any needles?

Nope. They all stayed on.

Then we got a winner.

-[phone ringing] -[Noah] Great.

Nice.

-I got to grab this. -Yeah.

I hope you're calling with good news.

I wish I was,

but I'm sorry to say, Handsome Justice is canceled.

I'm going to keep hammering them.

Do you really think you can change their minds?

It's Christmas.

Anything can happen.

Sorry about that.

[Noah] Guys, what do you think about this one?

Ooh.

[♪♪]

[Bill, in memory] Looks pretty good.

It's perfect.

Yeah!

Yeah.

It's beautiful.

So are you.

[kids] Yuck!

Okay, all right, okay.

You think I should send

a letter to Santa about those two?

I think that there is still time

to get them on the naughty list.

[Bill] Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. Uh-huh.

We're nice.

[laughing]

We're nice.

-Right here. -Perfect.

Oh...

[door opens]

[Mike] Watch your head, Mom.

I remember that one. From Dad.

-Yeah. -This is good.

Hey, it's not Christmas

until the first ornament is on the tree.

Go for it.

But you always hang the first one.

Eh.

All right. No pressure.

[Mom] So that one will be the family tree this year.

That one will be the snowflake,

and that one will be the toy tree.

Toy tree?

Oh, each tree has a theme,

so now we've got to find the ornaments

so we can get to decorating.

All right, let's go.

Okay.

That garland's not going to fluff itself.

At least she didn't blow the whistle.

Yeah.

[whistle blows]

We've got to take that thing away from her.

Hey, so after doing this for 10,000 hours,

I discovered a little trick.

As you work your way down the garland,

move each branch--

left, right, up, and down.

That's how you get uniform fluffage.

Fluffage?

It's a technical term.

[text alert chimes]

Oh, I swear it's like clockwork.

The only time a client need me

is when I'm busy doing something else.

I'm so sorry,

I'm going to have to go show a house to someone.

Is this an elaborate scheme to get out of fluffing garland?

You're not nearly as pompous as I expected you to be now.

Thanks.

Lucky for you, I find it charming.

Oh, Noah.

What?

Well, I'll have to take him with me.

My mother's volunteering at the library today.

Just leave him here.

We'll put him to work.

Like our very own little elf.

I mean, what self-respecting Christmas House

doesn't have its own elf?

That's a good point. Are you sure?

-Yeah. -Okay.

[Andi] Noah?

Please tell me you need help with that.

"Majestic Mike's Traveling Caravan."

Whoa.

That's when Mike used to be a big-time magician.

I dabbled.

[Bill] Hey, hey, don't sell yourself short.

Majestic Mike could really pack in a crowd.

Your mom was part of the act, too.

Her stage name was Awesome Andi.

They were quite a pair.

They would play birthday parties,

and then every Christmas Eve,

they would come here to the Christmas House

and put on this great, big, fantastic magic show.

People came from miles around to see it.

Well, people came for the house.

We just happened to be performing in the yard.

Do you guys think maybe I could learn?

Well, now, that depends.

Learning magic is a lot of hard work.

I can work hard.

It also takes a lot of practice.

I'll practice.

I don't know.

Mike, you think he's got the calling?

Only a true magician can know for sure.

They feel it in their bones.

Yeah, yeah!

I feel it. Definitely.

In that case,

I'll bet you, if you asked him,

Majestic Mike might just dust off his old tricks for you.

Absolutely.

Oh, and a cape.

He's definitely going to need a cape.

Yeah, yeah, the cape. Definitely.

Are your parents

actually going to put on more Christmas lights than this?

Yes.

I mean...

I love twinkly lights,

but is there such a thing as too many?

Don't let my parents hear you say that.

This time next year,

we're gonna be decorating as a family of three.

I hope so.

I can't wait.

Did you hear from the agency today?

If I had, don't you think I would have said something?

It was just a question.

Dinner's ready.

Great.

I could use some carbs.

I'm sorry.

All I've been thinking about

is whether the adoption will go through,

and on top of that,

I'm not there to oversee the bakery renovation.

It's nice being here, but the timing isn't great.

Hey.

It's so good that we're here.

We need some time together,

away from work stress,

and adoption stress,

and...

this is just going to give us so many great memories,

and...

inspiration for when we celebrate Christmas...

with our kids.

Do you think we'll decorate like this

when we have kids?

Absolutely not.

Hey, honey,

remember when we got this

in that little shop in the Berkshires?

Tiny place.

You were pregnant with Brandon.

That was the little reindeer figurine.

We got this teapot when I was pregnant with Mike,

and it was in Annendale on the Hudson.

That was our last Christmas, it was just the two of us.

I remember it because I know how I felt.

I was so proud and excited--

and nervous about the birth of our first child...

and so grateful

for the happiness that I was feeling.

See, this is not just a teapot--

this is a part of our family's history.

Maybe I'm the only one who thinks it matters,

but I do, so.

Ultimately, the memory of a thing

is really all you have.

All right,

let's eat while it's still warm.

Hi.

Hi. This is a surprise.

I come bearing gifts.

Well, no, a gift.

And it's actually for Noah.

I recognize that.

Yeah...

I figured it was time

to pass on to someone who'll actually use it.

Or you could have just dropped it off at the house.

And miss the look on your face

when you saw the old case of tricks?

No way.

Noah asked me about stage partners.

Apparently, there's a girl in his school

that he wants to invite to perform with him.

Go, Noah.

I was actually thinking

that I could take him by the magic shop.

You know, introduce him to the basics.

The art of performance.

I saw her billboard today.

Your competition?

More like domination.

She's been the only game in town for a long time, and...

it's tough to compete.

You know,

I could post something on my social media?

About me?

You think that could work?

Well, I have 1.2 million followers, so...

could make a splash.

Thanks, but I'm...

I'm focusing on building more of a local presence.

[phone ringing]

Sorry.

I got to take this.

Hello?

Okay...

Sure.

Right now?

Yeah. Yeah, that's fine.

Okay. Thanks.

Sorry. That was my agent.

Oh, you don't have to say that just to impress me.

No, it actually was.

There's this work thing.

It's a commercial,

and they want me

to try out some taglines for it as soon as possible.

Taglines for what?

When your odor is out of order,

reach for Grift Body Spray.

Now in a new scent--

Justice.

You can do way better than that.

You're out of order--

but Justice never smelled so good.

Grift Body Spray.

Get yours today.

That felt weird. Did it sound weird?

Sounds pretty weird.

Ooh.

What's my secret weapon in court?

Grift Body Spray.

Justice never smelled so good.

What do you think?

I think your job is very strange,

but I have to admit, it was quite entertaining.

Then my work here is done.

See ya.

Thank you.

Et voilà.

Honey, this looks wonderful.

Show-off.

We can't all be magicians or TV lawyers, Mike.

Mike gave Noah his old magic kit.

Oh!

Wow, there was a time

I thought that you would never get rid of that thing.

It's very nice that you're passing it on.

I told Andi I'd give him a few lessons,

help him get his bearings.

When we were in high school, Andi broke Mike's heart.

No, she didn't.

We were friends.

So you're helping her kid to learn magic

because as a friend.

Yeah, yeah.

See?

He's not just a nice guy on TV-- he's one in real life, too.

Thank you, Jake.

Actually, I wanted to tell you guys.

The network canceled Handsome Justice.

What? Oh...

No, it's fine.

This is the gig, you know?

When I get back to L.A., I will look for the next job,

but for now,

I am just grateful

that we can enjoy

the holiday together as a family.

-Sorry, honey. -Thanks.

[♪♪]

Come on!

Whoa! This place is so awesome.

Greetings, magicians,

and welcome to Marvelous Jim's Magic Shop.

And how can I help you

on your journey through the illusionary arts?

We are looking for some beginner's tricks.

Ah!

[clattering]

Ah, just one second.

I know I have something.

There we are!

[hums]

There we are.

[pocket watch clinking]

-Whoa! -Whoa!

Can I learn how to do that?

Of course you can.

But first...

What?

You'll have to find

your own very special pocket watch.

Now...

what do you call yourself?

Noah.

Noah! Ah!

Noah, Noah, Noah...

Numinous.

Noetic. Nifty.

Ah! I've got it!

Noah the Nimble.

Yes, that's it.

Now, if you'll kindly walk this way, young mage.

I know just the thing for you.

[message notification beeps]

[notifications beeping]

If you're looking

to buy or sell a home this Christmas season,

give yourself the gift

of a realtor who will make your dreams come true.

Andi Cruz Homes.

Come home for the holidays.

Hey! Those are for Santa!

You're out of order!

Sustained.

-Mm! -[Andi laughs]

[doorbell rings]

What a wonderful hat.

Oh!

Why, thank you.

I'm here to audition.

Come right on in.

Silver dollar.

Ordinary glass.

[Bill, in memory] Whoa!

How the heck did you do that?

A magician never reveals his tricks.

Oh, I see.

You know, Mike,

a lot of magicians

have, like, a helper, or a partner,

to do tricks with them.

-They do? -Oh, yeah.

So if you know somebody,

or you find somebody

that, you know, might be a good partner,

you could ask them to join your act.

Because magic is

really something to be shared.

You know, it's a lot like Christmas.

So what do you say?

Can I perform at the party?

Absolutely.

Yes!

So...

You haven't mentioned the video.

The video? What video?

Come on, the one I posted?

How have you not seen it?

It has, like, over a hundred thousand views.

Oh, yeah, that video.

Yeah. It was cute.

It would be nice

if the face of my business was actually my own.

Okay. I hear that.

This was just to get everyone's attention.

The next one...

The next one?

...we do together.

I have an idea.

Lay it on me. I'm all about collaboration.

How about I have my people call your people

if I want your help.

-Okay? -Okay.

[Mike] Have you and Mom started looking for new places yet?

Can't really think about that until the new year.

It's hard to imagine you guys in a different house.

Yeah, it is.

Hey, do you really want to sell?

I want your mother to be happy.

Is everything okay?

It will be.

Do you think Mom and Dad are acting weird?

Weird how?

Selling the house, not telling us about it,

not having a plan for when they move.

That doesn't seem like them.

Typical Mike.

What does that mean?

Sometimes, you look for problems

where there aren't any.

Could it be that what you're really feeling

is your own unfinished business with a certain girl next door?

Would you quit with that?

No.

This is supposed to be

the Mitchell Family Christmas to end all Christmases,

and...

I just feel like things are off.

So you don't think this has

at all to do with the fact

that, suddenly, you're around Andi again,

like old times.

You're available, she's available.

I mean, you've got her kid doing magic tricks,

for crying out loud.

This has got "second chance" written all over it.

Yeah.

Well, how can there be a second chance

when there was never a first one?

Well...

maybe this is your second chance at a first chance.

No.

With everything going on right now,

I can't even think about that.

Hey, this is our last Christmas here.

I know you got a lot on your mind,

but try to be in the moment, okay?

-Okay? -Ow!

Okay?

Okay.

-I played softball. -Mom!

[♪♪]

That's really good.

I know, but I don't know where to put it.

There's no place to put it.

Looks like a little present.

Look at these trees that I made.

[conversation continues]

Your baking skills.

Why don't we use your baking skills, right, Dad?

-Yeah. -Am I right?

Hey...

the Christmas Mouse.

Yeah.

Do you remember

how we used to hide her all over the house

for you kids to find.

Mm-hmm.

Except for the year

when you hid her and forgot where.

Oh, right,

and then we had to start writing it down after that.

You know, I had another one at school.

When I was principal,

I used to hide her

in a different classroom every day,

and the kids would have to find her.

It's so strange to drive by there

and know that somebody else is watching over it.

You worked hard for a long time.

It must be nice to have a break.

I'm not on a break.

It's done.

Your dad made it look so easy to retire.

You know, when you're raising kids...

and you're both working...

you're focused on the same things.

Is that why you guys are selling the house?

To get a fresh start?

Well, we need some perspective,

so, um...

we are going to move

into separate places after the holidays.

Now, I really...

I don't want you to say anything about this.

Please.

Because we want everyone to enjoy this holiday together.

Right?

It's not one last Christmas House.

It's one last Christmas.

I'm sorry, Mom.

[buzzing and popping]

[screaming]

[screaming]

[Mom] Oh, no!

Gives a whole new meaning to the term "Silent Night," huh?

Look,

all I'm saying is postpone it.

Bring back the Christmas House next year.

They're selling the house.

They won't be here next year.

We can postpone that, too.

Should we cancel?

Dad will be so disappointed.

He's so excited to show his friends.

Yeah, but we can't host anybody if we don't have electricity.

We'll figure something out.

We can't cancel The Christmas House.

It means too much.

[Bill] There we go, there we go!

Yeah, there we go! That's the ticket.

My hero.

That's your hero!

Well done, well done.

Not sure how long that's gonna last,

but if we keep the animatronics off,

it should hold.

We lost a lot of bulbs, though.

I know a guy who can patch it.

We can always use the generator as the back-up.

Okay. We can make it work.

We have to. At least, we have to try.

Dad, make a list

of all the people

we can ask for decorations and supplies.

Handsome 1, Handsome 2, you're on clean-up duty.

And I'll get started with the repairs.

Don't worry. We got this.

[♪♪]

Don't you dare.

[whistle blowing]

Here you go, babe.

Put something underneath it.

Oh! Some handiwork.

Yeah.

Well, I hope you guys are working up an appetite

because my mom's been cooking all day

to get ready for tonight.

Ooh! Tamale night.

Now, that is a family tradition I can get behind.

You know, every year,

I ask your mother for the recipe,

and every year, she turns me down.

Family secret, sorry.

I've actually been working on this idea

for a masa scone.

Nothing?

Okay, masa croissant?

Ooh, I know! A masa donut, huh?

Does anyone ever tell you that you do too much?

All the time.

Hey, honey.

I've written up a list

of people I want to call for decorations.

Stores too.

Is there anybody you'd like to add?

What about the Kendricks?

They moved to Florida three months ago.

They did?

I didn't tell you?

I guess not.

It's not like...

It wasn't on purpose, honey. I just forgot.

We used to tell each other everything.

It's not like I'm trying to keep things from you.

You were busy with your work,

and so I found things to do--

things I like doing.

And I think you should find things you like to do,

you know, now that you're free.

We used to be in sync.

We're not anymore.

I don't know what that means.

Neither do I.

The Christmas House is coming along.

The boys are here.

And aside from some electrical damage,

it's shaping up to be a perfect Christmas.

Can't we both just enjoy it?

Yes.

But a perfect Christmas is not gonna solve our problems.

[♪♪]

Oh! Mom, they're here!

Just in time!

[speaks in Spanish]

Bienvenida.

Hi.

You look beautiful.

It smells so good in here!

Thank you!

Okay, you ready? Look at this.

Look.

Aw, thank you.

Even though the are big,

they still feel like kids to me.

It has been a long time since I've done this.

And when Mike and I were your age,

Mama never let us spread the masa.

Because you were too messy.

Too busy making each other laugh.

Oh, and tamales are serious business.

Oh, yes. They are.

Okay, so what do I do here?

[Noah] All right, you need a spoonful of fat,

and then spread it on there.

[Bill] Okay, spread it on there?

Well, you know what they say, Noah...

What?

"Here today, gone tamale."

It's a Dad joke-- "here today, gone tamale."

Today, tamale.

[Andi] It's okay, Noah, I don't get it either.

[laughs]

You know what I always say--

dessert is the best part of every meal.

Homemade buñuelos

and Abuela's spicy hot chocolate.

I will never forget the first time I had this.

You sneezed for an hour because of the chili powder.

You were so upset because you thought...

...you were going to sneeze forever.

Elena, thank you for all the delicious food.

Anything for my favorite TV star.

She's also a big fan of cat videos,

so don't let the adoration go to your head.

Cat video lovers are a key demographic for me.

I'm so happy the Christmas House is back.

I can't wait to see it.

We're excited, too.

We only have a few days left.

Then we'll have

our first official Christmas House visitors.

That is when it really starts to get real.

[conversations, indistinct]

He's really taken to the magic.

Yeah.

Did he ask Rose to perform with him yet?

Not yet.

He just has to work up the nerve.

Yeah.

Remember when we performed on the Christmas stage

for the first time?

The disappearing watch trick?

When I lost Mr. Nicholson's watch?

You know, I spent three months

actually believing I had magical powers...

until the snow melted and we found it in the yard.

I believed it, too.

I hoped the magic was real.

I'm just glad that you decided to stick around

even after you realized

it was just a vanishing trick gone wrong.

Me too.

[message alert sounds]

Sorry.

It's an email from Gail Sterling.

She saw the video. What do I do?

Write her back.

Oh, she wants to know

how I know the guy from Handsome Justice.

[♪♪]

♪ Christmas... ♪

♪ The snow's comin' down ♪

It's called "the phantom necklace."

[boys laughing]

[boys laughing]

[♪♪]

Really?

Today, antlers are mandatory.

[Andi] Oh!

I have some news.

I know your house is not on the market yet,

but...

I have been mentioning it, word's gotten around,

and we got an email from a potential buyer.

Oh! Already?

He's local,

he absolutely loves the Christmas House,

so I can bring him by for a walk-through,

or... or you can wait.

Yeah. If you're not ready, you can say no.

You're so lucky to get to live here.

Yeah.

-You okay, bro? -[bicycle bell dings]

You seem stressed.

You know what?

I am stressed.

I lost the best job I ever had,

Mom and Dad aren't happy,

there's something going on with you and Jake,

with all the whispering,

and being around Andi's got me thinking,

I don't even want to go back to L.A.

I knew it!

You caught feelings.

It's almost Christmas.

Where's the magic, huh?

The deck the halls,

all is calm, all is bright holiday joy?

Where is it?

How are you so calm?

Things are literally on fire.

I'm calm

because I'm the guy

that's come this close to being a father three times,

only to have the adoption fall through.

Jake and I are waiting to hear on another one,

but we don't want to tell you guys

until we know for sure.

You guys are adopting?

We're trying.

But I've had to learn to let things fall apart,

and then pick up and keep going.

And what you realize is...

it may hurt,

but you will get through it.

Maybe it's time to dust off the old journal.

Write some poetry about the magical girl next door.

You read my journal?

You expected me not to?

Uh-huh.

You're gonna make a great dad.

Come here.

Thanks.

You're gonna make a decent uncle.

Thank you.

[both laughing]

A buyer's coming over now?

It's--it's just a walk-through.

Yeah, but what if he makes an offer?

Then we'll discuss it.

Look, we agreed that it's time for a change.

Well, I know,

but it's...

it's all happening so fast.

It seems fast to you

because you're not the one making all the arrangements

since you're so busy

with your new friends and your clubs, and--

Are you upset with me because I'm seeing friends...

taking yoga and hiking?

No.

But the changes

that you have made in your life...

well, I want those as well,

and...

this is the first step.

[doorbell rings]

Welcome.

Oh, the famed Christmas House.

What an honor.

-Marvelous Jim? -Indeed.

Ah!

We meet again.

I've admired this house for some time.

How fortuitous to learn that it's come on the market.

Shall we start?

Enchanting.

Why don't I join you?

We had a big leak in here.

Old pipes.

The plumbing is solid.

An inspector can verify that.

Mold.

You can smell it if you really get in there.

[Andi] There's no mold.

You believe in ghosts, Jim?

Have I got a story for you.

Alright.

Why don't you wait here?

What? I'm just trying to be helpful.

For some reason, I really doubt that.

Thank you so much.

That was absolute Christmas catharsis.

Thank you.

Ghosts?

Seemed only fair to tell him.

Tell him what?

That when you were 11,

you thought you heard a noise in the middle of the night?

Everyone was asleep. You explain it.

There are like 50 other things that it could be before ghosts.

Is he gonna buy it?

Your parents haven't even put it on the market yet.

I think we all need to slow down.

Mike...

I am not going to steer your parents into a bad deal,

or rush things with them.

Do you want me to call him, tell him I made up the mold?

Just...

just wave your wand and tell him it disappeared.

On that note,

I'm going to have

a glass of wine as big as my head.

You want some company?

My treat.

That would be nice.

[Andi gasps]

I thought you didn't do magic.

I don't. That was nothing.

You decided you weren't going to be a headliner in Vegas?

A real loss for show business, I know.

I did wonder, though.

You know, I thought we were in it together,

and then, poof, you were done.

Well, you were moving on, and I figured I should, too.

Moving on?

With Troy Parker.

Troy Parker?

I had a gift for you...

a necklace...

and I was just about to do this trick

to surprise you with it,

but it got jammed in the box.

And by the time I got it unjammed...

you were across the room, with Troy.

And he became your boyfriend...

and that was that.

I also have a confession.

I have watched every episode...

of Handsome Justice.

Really?

[Andi laughs] Yes.

My favorite one is

where you defend the dog accused of murder.

I saw it twice.

I am flattered.

You should be.

And even if you're not performing with me,

I am glad that you didn't quit altogether.

Besides...

I always wondered about you.

Me too.

Oh.

The good news is he's-- he's interested,

but he does want to put an expiration date on his offer.

In his words,

"the ticking clock can be a friend to us all."

Let's list the house now.

Today.

Well, everyone's already coming over for Christmas Eve,

so it's practically an open house.

Are you sure you're ready?

Yes.

-Yes. -Okay.

Then the Christmas House is officially for sale.

Thank you.

[phone ringing]

Hey! How are things in sunny California?

Well, I think they're fine,

but surprise-- I'm actually in New York.

What? Why?

I have a meeting with the network--

and I think you should come.

-When? -The day after tomorrow.

-Christmas Eve? -I know.

And I know it's last minute,

but I begged to get in

before they close for the holidays.

I think they thought giving me that time slot

would deter me.

Kathleen--

Help me make a case to them to keep the show.

You being there can make a difference.

Mike...

Okay.

Great. I'll see you then.

You have to work on Christmas Eve?

The timing's terrible. I know.

But I've got to go and fight for the show.

Look, I'll be back on the 5:00 train.

You won't even know I'm gone.

A stage, huh?

For the live music, the magicians.

Just when you thought

the Christmas House couldn't get any Christmas House-ier...

Wait, did you just say "magicians" plural?

I did.

Awesome Andi and Majestic Mike, for one night only.

Assisting Noah the Nimble, of course.

What do you think?

That's inspired.

Do you need costumes and props?

I got a guy.

I'll make a call.

You in?

Absolutely.

We'll just stay here and,

you know, get all the real work done.

These are from Elena.

They're props from the theater.

Oh.

I've got more outside.

Hey...

you surprised me today.

When you told Andi that you want to list the house.

Well, it's what you want, isn't it?

Yes.

Well, then, that's what matters most to me.

I'm trying, Phyl.

I'm really trying. I just...

want us to be...

us.

Yeah, me too.

Well...

better get back and work on the outside lights.

Don't forget your--

-Gloves. -Gloves.

[Mike] Stop.

[Noah] Put it in there.

Now watch this.

Open it.

Well done!

Excellent utility prop work.

Thank you. I'm a little nervous.

Oh, me too.

But that's okay.

I always get nervous before performances.

-You do? -Sure.

But I tell myself

that nervous and excited are almost the same thing,

so be excited instead.

Okay.

Hey, dinner's almost ready.

Why don't you conjure yourself some homework?

-See you, buddy. -Bye, Mike.

He's gonna knock 'em dead.

Yeah.

He's been happier in the last two weeks

than he has since we moved here.

It's the magic.

And...

that's because of you.

Well, I like hanging out with him.

With you, too.

You really are a born entertainer.

I used to think it was

just because you loved being the center of attention,

and maybe that's part of it,

but...

you do bring a lot of joy.

I may not always go about it the right way,

but that is the goal.

You know...

I'm not sure

that I ever thanked you for posting that video.

I should've asked your permission.

Next time.

Not bad.

Want some help?

Hey.

Just like the old days.

You coming back from dinner at the Cruzs',

me working out in the yard.

Yeah.

There's a bunch of lights in that box right there.

I could use the help.

Noah really likes the magic.

[laughs]

That sounds familiar.

You know, it never occurred to me until now,

teaching Noah these tricks,

that you must have spent hours learning them yourself

so you could teach me.

Are you kidding? I loved it.

I'm gonna miss this place.

[♪♪]

Hey, Mom told me...

about you guys taking some time apart.

Oh, she did, huh?

Huh...

I didn't know that.

I'm sorry, Dad.

Oh, well, you know,

over the course of a life, people change.

It's natural.

They should change.

I got so caught up with the new things in my life

that I...

lost sight of what's important.

But now I remember.

Remember what?

I don't need this house,

or the routine.

I just need us.

Our family.

My wife.

And I guess I've done...

a pretty lousy job of showing her that.

You gonna be okay?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

You gonna stand there all night

or are you gonna help me with the lights?

There you go. Yeah?

Thank you.

Yeah.

Picture the audience with big, red Rudolph noses.

Wow!

That's really amazing.

[text alert sounds]

What's wrong?

My meeting tomorrow.

I had hoped it would be in the morning,

but it's set for the afternoon.

[Noah] Don't worry, Mom.

Mike said he wouldn't miss my show for anything,

so he won't.

Right, Mike?

Right. Yeah.

It's just a quick trip.

Come on.

Later, buddy.

[sighs]

I think you guys are gonna get

a whole slew of offers on the house tomorrow.

Yeah, a Christmas Eve open-house party

is actually a great idea.

Well, we sure went out with a bang.

[laughing]

Yeah, you sure did.

[phone ringing]

Guys, I talked to Andi yesterday--

about a property.

It's a house.

It's on the Hudson.

In Annendale.

And it's a fixer-upper.

And I've asked my favorite contractor

if he would help me with it.

Well, I want her to be happy and I want to be happy,

so we've decided to be happy together.

It's a project that we can share.

That's great.

Yeah.

Really?

Really.

We're having a baby!

Our adoption finalized today.

We've been close before, but...

-Our little boy is coming home. -Yeah.

We're grandparents!

We'll have to baby-proof the new house!

Now who's your favorite son, huh?

The one who's leaving you on Christmas

or the one who's giving you a grandchild?

You!

-It's me, huh? -[laughing]

Mom, can I at least wear my cape?

No.

Capes are not for sleeping.

Besides...

you don't want it to get all wrinkled for tomorrow.

Mm-hmm.

Come on, off to bed.

I'm so proud of you, you know?

Yeah, I know.

Do you know why?

Why?

Because you're the bravest person I know.

I am?

Absolutely.

A month ago, you were just a regular kid,

and now you're a magician,

with a cape and everything.

Mike told me my job tomorrow

is to have so much fun on stage,

that everyone watching will have fun along with me.

He said that's why he liked performing with you.

Because you were the most fun.

He said that?

-Mom. -Hmm?

I'm all tucked in.

Can you please turn off the lights?

Yes. Great. Yes. Sorry.

[smooch]

-Love you. -I love you, buddy.

We've been waiting an hour.

I've got a train to catch.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

-Come on in. -Thank you.

I'm sorry we're starting late.

Things always get crazy

the last business day before the break.

I'll get right to it.

You're not canceled--

yet.

The guy who wanted to cancel the show--

he's gone.

We want to keep the show,

but only if we can find a way to freshen it up.

That's great.

We're very happy to get a second chance.

[♪♪]

My flight doesn't leave until 8:00,

so why don't we start now?

We've got some great ideas.

Great. Let's hear them.

Okay...

a fresh new look.

I'm thinking we show a more relatable side of him.

[♪♪]

We think we could utilize the international locations

to draw a larger audience.

We've seen that before, though.

Let's circle back to this doctor/lawyer thing.

I mean, has that been done before?

Sort of like a Jekyll and Hyde story?

Yes, Jekyll and Hyde!

I am so sorry,

but I have to go.

Mike, we are so close.

I know.

I know, and I'm sorry,

but, you see,

my family does this thing on Christmas Eve,

and it's happening right now.

This show meant everything to me,

and I'm so grateful to you, Kathleen,

and to everyone at the network,

but this isn't where I'm supposed to be tonight.

I'm supposed to be with the people I love.

I really hope you give the show a second chance...

but my second chance is waiting for me upstate.

Merry Christmas.

[♪♪]

-It's Christmas! -Here you go, guys.

Keep 'em coming.

I want to get this done.

Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas to you!

I'm so proud of you!

Welcome to the Christmas House!

What if Mike doesn't come?

Don't worry, buddy. He'll be here.

-You sure? -Yeah.

-Go on, have fun. -Okay, I will.

Quite the night, my dear, quite the night.

I'm so glad that you're enjoying yourself.

Well, the clock has last ticked its last tock,

which means I'm ready.

I'm sorry?

I'm ready to buy.

An all-cash offer.

Right now.

[♪♪]

An all-cash offer?

-Really? -Wow.

It's an option on the table.

There might be a few more by the time the night is over.

Who knows?

Has anyone heard from Mike?

Not yet.

Taxi!

It feels like yesterday when that was you and Mike.

If you would have told me

I was going to be moving back here

and doing magic at the Christmas House,

I would have never believed you.

Life is full of surprises, isn't it?

And we just have to keep moving forward

to find out what it's all going to be.

Oh, yeah.

[Mike clears throat]

Mike!

You ready?

Yes.

[sighs happily]

Ladies and gentleman, gather round.

-Bring it on in! -There he is.

-The show is about to begin. -Let's see.

I am Majestic Mike,

and I would like you to help me welcome to the stage

the astonishing,

the spectacular,

the neighbor with all the tricks...

Noah the Nimble!

[applause]

The theme of tonight's show

is a little something we like to call

Christmas Magic.

[♪♪]

[applause]

[♪♪]

[applause]

Oh!

[♪♪]

[crowd gasping]

And for our next trick, we need a little help.

Care to join me?

I would love to.

[♪♪]

-Hi. -Hi.

I'm glad you could make it.

[Bill] Shh.

Keep it down.

I'm getting into character.

Okay, you ready?

Yeah.

Ho, ho, ho!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!

[♪♪]

Ho, ho, ho!

I actually have one last trick.

You do?

Ooh!

Should I say some magic words?

It couldn't hurt.

I don't want you to move back to L.A.

I'm not.

[Andi gasps]

May I?

You may.

I have waited a long time to give that to you.

When you said you weren't going back to L.A.,

what did you mean?

What happened in the meeting?

I don't know.

I left as soon as I realized the life I want is here.

Ooh!

Oh! Hi! Good morning!

-Merry Christmas! -Merry Christmas!

Have a seat.

So I have an update.

I'm sorry to say

that though there was a lot of interest,

we didn't get any offers.

What?

What about Marvelous Jim?

He had a change of heart.

I guess his offer magically disappeared.

-Oh. -But-- but--

um...

there was a new offer this morning,

and, um...

I think you'll be pleased.

Wow.

On Christmas Day?

You are good.

You?

You want to buy the house?

I do.

[Phylis] But what about your work?

Kathleen's sold a Handsome Justice spin-off

that's gonna shoot in New York,

so I can commute.

The life that I want to come home to

at the end of the day

is right here.

And besides,

someone has to keep all this going, don't they?

Oh!

Wow..

Well, offer accepted!

Okay, well, then I'll get to the paperwork.

Congratulations.

-Merry Christmas. -Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

[Brandon] We're gonna be able to decorate this house forever!

-Merry Christmas. -Merry Christmas.
