Cara? Sorry to keep you waiting.

Hi.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Thank you for seeing me
on such short notice.

Are you kidding me?

For you.

What's this?

Oh, it's just a little
something.

Oh, a little somethin'?
I like that.

Come on, let's chat
into my office.

Yes.

How you been?

Good.

Yeah?

Busy. What about you?

Oh, hustle and bustle,
the big city, Christmas-time?

Oh, you know my wife loves
the raspberry vanilla jam.

I remember, that's
why I brought two.

Oh.

I also brought you a sneak peek
of our new flavour.

It's peanut butter maple.

Well, thank you Cara.

It'll be nice to have a little
bit of home at Christmas-time.

Yeah.

I was really sorry to hear
about your Mom.

She was a remarkable lady
and an astute businesswoman.

You've got big shoes to fill.

That's actually why I'm here.
Um...

We've had some
unexpected costs,

so, we'll make it all
back next year,

but we do need a loan to help us
get through this

so we don't have to lay off
workers during the slow season.

Stonebridge Preserves has been
around for generations,

and we want them to be around
for many more.

But in order for that to happen,

you're going to need to
institute some changes.

I know you pride yourself
on being handcrafted,

but perhaps it's time to
consider trimming the workforce

by adding more a jam
making machine.

I mean, the people back home
depend on the jobs

that we provide them.

I mean, you yourself
worked there in high school.

I know.

But I do have an idea
for a new revenue source.

Okay.

So, this would be a new product
that we could develop

during our slow season.

Candy bars.

They would be all-natural,
no additives,

and they'd be made with the...
the fruits,

and the nuts, and everything
directly from our distributors.

So, I've done a lot of research
into the materials,

the production...

Cara, this is all
really important.

It is.

It's just, uh, it's difficult
to launch a new product,

especially in this busy
marketplace.

So you need to tell me.

What makes this one so special?

The Stonebridge name.

Three generations of craft.

I'm afraid that's just
not distinctive enough.

I'm sorry, Cara.
My... my hands are tied.

I really am sorry.

♪ Good tidings we bring
for you and your kin ♪

♪ Good tidings
for Christmas... ♪

Now over to Madison
Square Gardens,

country star Heath Sawyer
wowed fans last night

with the usual spirited
rendition of his favourites.

But the lack of new material
left some of us wondering

if he'll ever have another hit.

Merry Christmas!

Um, Heath?

Heath?

I'm sorry, it's just that I have
a flight to catch in a few hours

and I just wanna make sure
that you're all caught up.

So, your recording session
is the day after Christmas...

11:00 AM, I know.

I'll be workin' all weekend.

Oh, and tour's selling out.

Lou has added dates to
Frankfurt, Berlin and Shanghai.

Sounds good.

And... your mom called earlier.

Yeah. All right.
I'll call her back.

I sent in your dinner order.

Room service should be here
in 20 minutes.

And, friendly reminder, I won't
be back till after Christmas.

Which means, I won't
be reachable.

So you will be on your own,
all weekend.

Ah, Gail will be around.

Well, actually, Gail will be
spending her Christmas

in Jackson Hole.

Oh. Well, you know what, I could
use the weekend alone.

I'll finish writin' my song.

I'll be fine, I promise.

Okay.

Oh, Liz?

A bonus.

I couldn't get by without you.

Please send my love
to your family.

Thank you so much.

I really appreciate it.

Oh, I will see you in the studio
Tuesday morning.

Bright and early.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas.

Yeah.

Hello, Momma.

Hey, Merry Christmas,
sweetheart.

How was the concert?

Oh yeah, they applauded
at all the right places.

Well, that's a good thing.

You cooking your famous brisket
and pink applesauce right now?

Uh-huh.

Mmm.

I can almost taste it from here.

Well, you better get yourself
on down here and have some.

You looked too thin on the TV.

I need to feed ya.

Oh. Momma, I want to.

Especially this Christmas.

I know how important it is.

I'm really trying
to make it work.

Trying isn't doing, son.

It's just...

Look, I got a lot on my plate.

What's the matter, Lee?

You're... you're usually so full
of energy after a concert.

I'm fine, momma. Really.

It's time for you to come
home, son.

I know.

This summer for sure.

No.

Summer isn't Christmas.

Now, I want you to think
about that.

All right?

I will.

I love you, Momma.

I'll talk to you soon.

I love you too.

Bye.

Oh, don't start.

Summer? Really?

I'm so sorry, dress rehearsal
ran late.

Oh my gosh, I'm so happy
to see you.

I can't believe you're here.

Of course I'm not going
to miss my best friend

as the Sugarplum Fairy,
you kidding?

Well, understudy.

It's a big deal, Soph.

Yeah, it kinda is, isn't it?

Yeah.

How did it go with Lionel
this afternoon?

It's uh, it's a long story.

I'll get the hot chocolate.

Extra marshmallows.

That bad?

You need to be here.

You think I don't wanna
come home?

I don't know, maybe you do,
maybe you don't.

You haven't been home
since Dad's funeral.

Well, look. I've been
performing.

Is that the only reason?

I gotta be in the studio
next week.

Look, I have to finish writin'
this Christmas song.

Well, finish it here, Lee.

Look, we both know dealing
with feelings

isn't exactly your strong suit.

Only this year, opting out
isn't an option.

Mom won't say it, but...

She's counting on you.

You know, nobody talks to me
the way you do.

Yeah, well, how many
older sisters you got?

Just one, thankfully.

Text me your flight info, okay?

I'll pick you up at the airport.

All right.

He said he'll only approve
the loan

if we add more jam-making
machines.

and then we have to lay off
half the workers.

So, I don't know,

we have to make a decision
by the first of January.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know.

I hate going home with bad news
to my Dad, and...

I guess I'm just hoping
for a Christmas miracle.

Well, what about
your candy bar idea?

Well, Lionel didn't go for that.

How can anyone eat one of
your candy bars and say no?

He didn't even let me
get that far,

he cut me off
before my slideshow.

So... you have some left over?

So many. They're all yours.

Thank you.

What does your dad think?

Uh, I haven't told him yet.

Why not?

I was just kinda hoping that
I was just gonna sell Lionel

on the idea before I told him.

Yeah.

Well, catch me up at home.

Did you meet anyone at that
holiday party you went to?

Nobody interesting.

You didn't go?

Well, you're in New York,
you want me to go alone?

How are you gonna meet
Mr. Right

when you don't put yourself
out there?

I dunno, I'm so bad at this.

And that's why I have
just the thing.

Merry Christmas,
open it.

I'm scared.

Okay, let's see.

Okay.

And this is supposed
to help me... how?

It's a conversation starter.

Oh, I kinda feel like it's more
of a conversation ender,

to be honest.

Trust me.

This is in honour of your
first ever performance

in the Big Apple.

Oh my gosh, this is beautiful.

Cara, these are supposed
to be gag gifts.

I know, but this is a big deal,

and I'm really, really proud
of you.

Aww...

Well, now I feel like I need
to exchange this.

No, I love it.

Thank you.

You're so welcome,
thank you.

Thank you, Merry Christmas.

You lost the remote?

Funny.

I can change my flight
if you need anything.

I... It's not a problem,
I can stay.

No, no.

You know what?

Have an amazing Christmas, Liz.

You deserve it.

Thank you.

It's an airline ticket,
how hard can it be?

...As you know we've been
tracking this storm,

and it is looking like
a massive storm front

is heading straight into
the heartland of America.

This is going to be a big storm and a long trip home.

Excuse me.

Sorry to bother you.

Oh, no problem at all.

What are you...

Okay.

Merry Christmas.

Okay... Thank you, Hector.

Um... but you're...
you're actually in my seat.

Sorry, I just went to buy
this magazine

and this man was watching
my stuff, so.

Oh.

I uh, didn't even notice.

It's okay.

I'll move.

Thanks.

Oh, here.

Yeah.

Ohh!

Oh, uh.

I'm so, so sorry.

... you forgot your coffee.

Uh...

I'll... I'll buy you
a new shirt.

It's fine.

Dry cleaning, I...

Nope. It's okay, it's all right,
uh... accidents happen.

No worries.

Ladies and
gentlemen, may I have
your attention please.

Many flights are cancelled
due to the weather.

Please check your time
for an update.

Hi, can you tell me what's
happening with the flight?

The storm's headed
into the Tulsa area.

The flight's been cancelled.

Cancelled?

What's your name?

Um, it's Cara Hill.

I can rebook you onto
a Chicago-bound flight.

They're still flying to Tulsa
from there.

Departures at 1:00.

There's a restaurant
next to gate 6 upstairs

so just make sure you listen
for the announcements.

And don't worry, Ms. Hill.

We're going to get you
to where you need to be.

Saved you a seat.

It's the least I could do
since I stole yours.

Thank you.

Well, I had to change
into something.

Now, I feel really guilty.

No, it's pretty comfortable,
actually.

Okay.

And it makes fun noises.

It does.

One check or two?

Two.

One.

Please, let me get this.

Thank you.

Um, may I please have
the peppermint latte

with the gingerbread plate,
please.

Coffee. Black.

That's it.

Thank you.

Thanks.

What?

I just feel like I...
I've met you before.

I know you or something.

Do we know each other?

I don't think so.

Are you in a band?

Uh, yeah, yeah, sorta.

What kind of music?

Is it rock music? Or...

Country.

Oh.

What?

You don't like country?

I mean, it's not my favourite...

Okay.

What's your favourite music?

Uh, I guess I'm kind of like
a show tunes girl.

Show tunes.

Yes.

Ahh. Okay.

You uh, you headed home
for Christmas?

Yeah, yeah. Oklahoma.

Well, me too.

No way.

Yeah, born and raised.

Did you ever ride the dry gulch
train at Christmas?

Only every Christmas
since I was five.

Really?

Yeah, I grew up in Coweta.

I'm from Rocky Point.

What?

Yeah, did you go to Wagon Ridge?

Ah, Broken Eagle.

Ohh. We competed in choir.

Yeah, you guys were great.

State champions.
That must be it.

Must be what?

How I know you.

Yeah. Yeah, maybe.

Thank you.

Mmm. Want one?

Probably shouldn't.

Sorry, I've gotta take this.

Yeah, yeah, no problem.

Thanks.

You should live dangerously.

Hey, Dad.

There you are.

I been trying to reach ya.

Have you boarded yet?

No, I've been re-routed,

but I'll be there in time
for the party, I just, um...

I'm sorry that I can't help.

It's fine, sweetheart.

Alan and Jim are comin'.

Hang on a second.

I'll ask them to help me
set up.

I'll give them their
bonuses now,

and everybody else
at the party.

Well, maybe we should
wait on that.

It's Christmas.

Our teams worked hard for it.

Not their fault we've had
a tough year.

What are you up to now?

I am makin' peach jelly
from some peaches

I pulled out of
the cold storage.

Try nutmeg.

Well, my thought exactly.

Just a pinch, though.

Well, I'm sure everyone
will love it.

Say, listen, uh....

How did it go with Lionel?

Uh, well he didn't...
turn us down.

Great, great.

I guess he knows as good
as anybody

what Stonebridge means
around here.

Good for you, Sweetheart.

I knew you could get
through to him.

But dad, there... there was
one stipulation.

Oh, hold on.

That's, uh, Alan and Jim
just getting here now.

You can tell me
the details later.

Just get home.

And great job, sweetheart.

You made your Mom proud.

Love ya.

Come on in!

Dad?

Everything okay?

Yeah, it's just a work thing.

But I think I'm... I'm,
I think I'm actually gonna

go down to the gate and find
somewhere to plug my phone in.

I need power.

Thank you for this.

What about your cookies?

Oh, it's all yours.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Is that your guitar?

Yeah.

Do you know any
Christmas songs?

I do.

Hmm.

"Jingle Bells"?

Yep.

"Santa's Comin to Town"?

Yep.

"Here Comes Santa Claus"?

Yep.

"Silent Night".

I know a lot of Christmas songs.

Cool.

Well, you know what?

You should probably go find
your mom.

We don't want her to worry
about you.

I'm here alone, but Cerise
is showing me when to board.

She had to go help
another person, so...

um, she told me not to go far.

Cool.

Ahh.

My grandma makes the best
hot cider and spiced cookies.

And, she says there's so much
to do in Chicago.

We're gonna go sledding,
and ice skating,

and we're even gonna go see
the big Christmas tree.

Wow.

Wanna play?

Uh, well here's the thing...

...Alex.

Alex.

I, uh, I got a lot of
work to do,

so I don't really have time
to, uh...

Is she your friend?

Uh, well...

Hi.

Come on, come over here.

Hello.

Hey.

We meet again.

Yeah.

Sorry, I didn't want you
to think I was running away

from you earlier.

I'm Cara by the way.

I'm, uh, Heath... uh, Leland.

You don't seem very sure
about that.

People call me Lee.

I'm Alex.

Hi Alex.

I like your sweater.

Oh, yes. Thank you.

Wanna sit?

We were just about
to play cards.

Sure.

You guys travelling together?

Oh, uh, no.

We... we just met.

Oh, you're just making friends
everywhere, huh?

Yeah.

Who's this?

That's Dasher.

He's coming with me
to my grandma's.

Are you going to your
grandma's for Christmas?

Mm-hmm.

I was supposed to fly
with my dad, but...

he couldn't get leave.

Oh.

Is your dad a soldier?

I tell you what.

What's your game?

Omaha?

Or Texas Hold'em?

Go fish.

All right.

Okay.

Do you have any sevens?

I don't know how,

but I think I'm gettin' beat
by the reindeer.

Flight 37 to Chicago,
first class

and folks travelling with small
children may now board Gate 2.

Alex, come on. That's you.

All right. That's us, buddy.

Are you coming?

Uh, no, I have to wait
a little bit longer.

Oh, well, see you
on the plane.

Bye.

Bye.

Hey.

Welcome aboard, Alex.

See you on the plane, Lee.

Okay.

It's not your time yet, sir.

Oh, you called first class.

And you're coach.

Coach?

Oh.

Well, I can pay the difference.

The flight's full.

Think you could do me a favour?

I'm sorry, there's really
nothing I can do.

Ooh, ah, before you go.

No... yeah?

Could I get an autograph?

Just make it out to Cerise.

Cerise.

Thank you.

Back again?

Oh, it was a little
miscommunication.

Hmm.

Here.

Ah, what's this?

Candy bars.

Oh.

I will dig right into that.

Those are good.

Did you make these?

Mm-hmm.

Can I have some more?

Un-huh.

All right.

Hey, do you know what?

My dad was in the army too,

and he used to have to be away
at Christmas sometimes.

He was a helicopter pilot,
and he gave me...

He gave me these.

Wanna hold onto it for me?

Really?

Yeah.

I think he'd like you
to have it.

There you go.

Look who got his wings.

Um, is there any update
on the connection to Tulsa?

I just heard.

The storm took a turn due north.

No one's getting out
of Chicago tonight.

Come on, Alex.

Let's go find your Grandma.

She's going to be so excited
to see you.

Well, I guess this is...
goodbye.

Again.

Goodbye again.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Alright.

Yep, trying to find
a private jet.

For today?

Uh-huh.

From where?

O'Hare.

I'm sorry, all flights
are grounded.

Hello? Hello?

Hey, Lee.

Oh.

Hey Lex.

Grandma, this is the man
I was telling you about.

His dad was in the army too.

You must be grandma.

It's so nice of you and your
girlfriend to take care of him.

Oh, well, we're not together.

Oh, I... I...
I just assumed.

Sorry to hear about
your flight.

Do you have a place
to stay?

Not yet.

Well, that won't do.

My husband used to own
a historic hotel.

I can call if you like.

Yeah.

Yeah, that'd be great.

Woah.

Oh.

Okay, now I officially know
that you're following me.

No, you are the one
that's following me.

How could I be following you
when I got here first?

I gotta take this.

You coming down for dinner?

Um, I hadn't decided yet.

Well, can I talk you into it?

Maybe.

Gail. Hi.

How's skiing?

Yeah. Nah, no, I didn't end up
staying in New York after all.

I'm going home.

Yeah.

Well, you can't put this one
on me, sis.

The airport is closed.

Likely story.

Oh, I couldn't sleep last night.

I was thinking about dad.

Missing him.

Yeah, it's not gonna be the same
without him.

How's mom handling things?

Oh, she's keeping busy.

Making us all something special.

She won't say what it is.

Yeah.

Hey, buddy. Are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

I should get back to work,
though.

Look, I'm gonna make it home,
all right?

Even if I have to charter
a sleigh.

All right, sis.

Charter a sleigh...

How did the peach jelly
go over?

Oh, it's a hit.

And so are those bonuses.

Dad, I wish you'd waited
to give those out.

Is something wrong?

No, I just...

I wish I'd been there to watch
everyone's reactions

when they opened them,
that's all.

Enjoy the party, Dad.

Um, I'll see you for
Christmas Eve dinner.

I'm gonna bake you the ham,
Mom's recipe.

I love you, sweetie.

I love you too, Dad.

Mr. Sawyer, well...
it's a real pleasure.

What'll it be?

A hot buttered rum?

It's a Christmas specialty.

Better make it two.

I just couldn't bring myself
to tell him, you know?

Not in the middle of the party.

Maybe you were
right to hold off.

I mean, there's plenty
of other bankers

that will finance
your idea, right?

You don't know, Lionel's
been our banker forever,

so if he doesn't do it,
I don't know who would.

You just have to be willing
to take a risk.

Hey Soph, um, can
I call you back?

I kind of have plans.

With who?

You're stranded
in a strange city.

I dunno, just this guy
I met on the plane.

You met a guy?

On a plane? And you
talked to him?

And you agreed to drinks?

Yeah, I'm taking risks.

It was the sweater, wasn't it?

Can't wait for the new album.

Yeah.

Makes both of us.

Thanks.

I'm hanging up now.

Uh, sorry to interrupt.

Oh no, do... you weren't.

She is just busy getting ready
for Christmas.

Yeah. My family too.

So much to do I feel
like right before.

Yeah.

Well, I figured hot buttered
rum is a good substitute

for hot cocoa,

especially on a stormy night
two days before Christmas.

I will take some. Thank you.

Yeah.

I have not had a moment to relax
like this in a long time.

Me either.

I am so excited!

Okay, we need to go over
there right now.

That uh, that call today
at the airport.

Yeah, that was some
disappointing news

I had to give to someone.

They didn't take it well?

I haven't done it yet.

Yeah.

Um, I'll figure something out.

I'm sure you will.

How can you be so sure?

You know, just call it a hunch.

So, were those really
your father's wings?

Yeah.

Yeah, I don't know,
somehow I just...

I feel like my dad would've
wanted Lex to have 'em.

He would've wanted?

He passed last year.

I'm sorry.

Yeah.

My mom actually passed recently.

I'm sorry.

Christmas just doesn't feel
like Christmas with him gone.

Is it?...

It is.

Do you know them?

Uh...

Heath, we didn't know
you were in town.

Are you here for a concert?

Nope, nope.

Just, uh, just passin' through.

Can we get autographs?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Yeah.

I can't believe I'm getting
Heath Sawyer's autograph.

I saw all your concerts,
I have all your albums...

There you go.

Will you sing us just one song?

Uh, um...

Come on, it's...
it's Christmas.

Don't you want to hear
something, too?

Sure.

Absolutely.

Why not?

I am so excited.

Hello?

I can hear the first line
in the wedding toast now.

They met on a layover
in a blizzard...

What time is it?

Earlier there than it is here?

I couldn't sleep
a wink last night.

Katarina came down
with a stomach flu,

and they asked me to perform
her solo.

You're gonna do great, Soph.

Well, what about you?

How'd it go?

Well, he's unavailable.

He's married.

Uh, no, worse.
He's Heath Sawyer.

The country singer?

Are you sure?

Pretty sure.

He performed a song at the bar
last night to, like,

a ton of adoring fans.

Okay, the whole time
I'm in New York,

I don't meet one
single famous person.

You fly out to our hometown

and you meet the hottest guy
on the planet?

Do you like him?

Is he nice?

Does it matter?

It could.

He's Heath Sawyer.

No, are you kidding me?

What now?

Looks like the airport's
still shut down today.

What am I gonna do, Soph?

How am I gonna get home?

Remember the time in the 9th
grade when I really wanted

to see the Joffrey perform
Swan Lake in Chicago,

and we had to travel
all the way up?

...On the bus.

You're a genius, I love you.

last night, Cara.

Uh, you seen her come down yet?

She checked out
about 20 minutes ago.

Everything okay?

It's not even 7:00 AM.

Does that mean
the airport's open?

Shut down till tomorrow.

You've got to be kiddin' me.

So, you'll be staying on?

Not if I can help it.

Liz, hey.

Uh, check your messages.

I'm stuck in Chicago
and the airport is closed.

You have got to find me a way
to get to Tulsa.

Sorry, did I overhear
you say Tulsa?

All aboard.

There we go.

Cara?

What are you doing here?

I know what it looks like, but
I swear I'm not following ya.

Sure, you're not.

No, I mean, I just...

You're Heath Sawyer.

They said there was an 8:00 AM
bus leaving to Tulsa,

at the hotel.

Can, can I sit down?

Please?

Sure.

All right.

Good.

you were, uh...

Who says I'm upset?

I mean, you didn't
recognize me.

Big deal.

Not everybody knows who I am.

Excuse me, I just wanna say
what a big fan I am.

What are you bothering
this nice young couple for?

I always hated for folks
to interrupt

when Harriet and me was getting
into something.

No, no. We're not a couple.

Oh, sure argue like one.

Wait a minute.

Don't I know you?

Wait... You guys are
the Roamers.

Y'all were huge.

Well, we still are.

Yeah.

Only, nobody knows us anymore.

Except the old-timers.

Y'all were my dad's favourite.

I mean, Cara.

This is the Roamers!

Hi, it's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, Cara.

Oh, I'm Harriet.

And I'm Henry.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

We're going to do a show
at uh, Kringle's uh,

Christmas Land, yeah.

What, y'all are still touring?

50 years.

We met on a bus bound
for Amarillo.

Yeah. I was a wrangler
and she was a schoolteacher.

Oh, neither of us knew how
to play a lick,

but we both loved music, so we
just started singin' together.

Yeah, pretty soon we took
the act on the road and

never looked back.

That's great.

Yeah, we think so.

Oh, and every year, we sing
Kringle's Christmas Village.

Say. Would you like to join us?

No, no, no. Harriet, Harriet.

He's a... he's a
big personality.

He can't...

Well, there's a half-hour
rest stop.

Just one quick song.

He gets paid a lot of money
for his voice.

I'd love to.

Really?

Oh!

You... you would...

He said yes!

Oh!

Oh!

Thank you so much.

Heath Sawyer and the Roamers.

The Roamers.

Wow.

Golly. I can't believe it,
Heath Sawyer!

Welcome to Faith, Missouri.

It's a great little town.

Uh, people come from
all over the country

just to celebrate
Christmas here.

Uh, we're going to go
check the setup.

Okay.

So, can we start over?

Hi.

I'm Heath Sawyer.

You can call me Lee.

Cara.

Cara.

It's very nice to meet you.

Better?

Much, yeah, you didn't spill
coffee on me this time, so...

Ah, forgot how much I missed
this.

What?

Just bein' out,
doin' something normal.

You know, no pictures,
no autographs, just...

it's almost like the closer
we get to home,

the more like myself I feel.

We're ready.

Uh, let's see.

Wagon Ridge school choir?

Oh, no, no. I'm not
a professional.

Well, that's exactly
what I told Henry.

Singing is free.

It's true, Cara.

And each voice has
its own uniqueness.

Okay.

Come along! Come along!

Ha, ha!

It's gonna be fun!

And now, one more song
to close us out.

Thank you, thank you.

A special thanks to our
special guests Heath and Cara.

We'll be back a little bit
later, us two,

you'll have to put up
with that, okay?

Thank you, thank you,
thank you.

We'll be back later
this afternoon.

I wanna thank you guys so much.

It's been a... it's been
a real treat.

Yeah.

Well, I guess you'd better get
on the bus.

You've got a long journey
ahead of ya.

Uh, unless...

Unless what?

Our organizer, Fiona.

Oh, Fiona, yeah.

Yeah.

She's got the car rental agency.

That's right.

She could shave, oh, what,
a couple hours off your trip.

Oh, really?

Well... let, let me go hunt
her down.

Perfect.

Why don't you go grab a bite
to eat while you wait.

Good idea.

I'll grab the hot chocolate.

I can't thank you enough!

I mean, I never thought
I'd be on stage with...

anyway, thank you.

Bye.

So you know, Rocky Point
is pretty close to Coweta.

I could always use
a co-pilot.

Oh thanks.

Um, I think I'm just gonna stick
with the bus.

You sure?

Yeah.

I should get going, but, um...

Thank you.

Yeah.

That was fun.

It was.

Well, won't it be great to get
home again for Christmas?

All right. Bye.

Ah, yes.

Oh.

Ah... where's your friend?

Oh, I'm... I'm travelling solo.

Oh, that's a shame.

You two made such a lovely duo.

There you go.

Merry Christmas.

Are you here for the annual
snowflake party?

Uh, well, that...

that's a new one on me.

Well, it's kind of a Christmas
Eve tradition around here.

It's the last chance to do it,
now that it's Christmas Eve.

See, folks, they make a
snowflake and put a wish on.

Then we hang 'em
on all the windows.

It's quite a sight.

Well...

We'll do it.

Guess a, uh, car
would be faster.

Yeah folks, let's get you
a table here.

Come on right over here.

Now we got paper, and markers,
and scissors.

And if you need a hand
with anything,

Miss Maple over here,
she's our resident specialist.

Um, are y'all serving food?

Well, it wouldn't be Christmas
Eve without my roast duck.

Famous in five counties.

Well then, we'll have
two servings,

all the fixings please.

Done deal.

Do you need to get that?

No.

You're one of those
super annoying people

that's just good at everything,
aren't ya?

My mom and I used to do
a lot of crafts together.

That's kind of how we passed
the winter months, so...

I just don't really have anyone
to do it with recently.

Oh. I'll fill in.

Just show me what to do.

Okay.

It's pretty easy.

So you fold it six times.

Six times, okay.

One...

And just make sure
the edges are lined up.

Two?

Here, let me, let me.

Let me just...

Start cutting.

Yeah...

Don't look at mine.

What are you doing over there?

I'm cuttin'.

Do you not know
how to use scissors?

Of course I've
used scissors before.

Let's see what you got.

Don't laugh.

No?

No, it's nice.

It's a snowflake.

It's a good try.

All right.

I... I'm sure yours is much
better than mine.

Wow.

It's all right.

All right.

You first.

Don't look!

Why not?

Because then it won't come true.

I'm pretty sure
that's not how it works.

That's exactly
how wishes work.

They hang 'em up
on the wall, so...

"A Christmas Miracle."

So I don't have to lay off
half of my employees.

Your disappointing news.

It would be the first ever
layoff in Stonebridge
Jams' history.

Stonebridge Jams?
That's you?

Pfft.

You're famous!

You should talk.

No, no, I'm serious.

That is my mother's favourite.

Uh, y'all have
been around forever.

Yeah, my great-grandmother

started it during
the depression.

Yeah, now we're the biggest
employer in the area.

Wow.

But, you know how it goes.

Somebody is always going
to come along

and try and make things cheaper.

Which is why you want
to make the candy.

I tried to sell the bank
on the idea, but...

they didn't buy it.

Petty.

No. Don't... don't ever
take no for an answer.

If you believe in something
so much,

you gotta make others
believe in it too.

You make your
Christmas miracle.

Okay, your turn.

What's your wish?

A song.

Yeah, yeah, I used
to write one a week.

But, uh, lately, I've been
in kind of a slump.

You don't sound like somebody
who's lacking inspiration.

Yeah, I haven't written a song
since my dad passed.

What kind of song are
you trying to write?

A Christmas song.

Hmm.

Yeah. Yeah.

One that turns strangers into
friends and friends into family.

Doesn't get much better
than that.

What do you say we put our
snowflakes up?

All right.

Yeah, it's a one of a kind.

Huh?

Hey.

Ooh.

Look at that.

That looks amazing.

Oh, well.

You really are Heath Sawyer.

Well, I got your car all ready.

Fiona, you have been such
a huge help.

Thank you.

Well, it's my pleasure.

Ooh, I have a little gift
for you both.

It can get chilly out there.

Thank you.

I've been your biggest fan
from the start,

so you just keep
making good music.

That's how you can thank me.

Fiona, for you, I will do
just that.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you.

I think green is a great colour
for you.

Well, today's not the day
that we are gonna find out.

It's really comin' down, huh?

I don't know how much longer
we should be on these roads.

You know, we just need
to find a motel.

Doesn't look like there's much
of that around here.

Keep your eyes peeled.

I'm sorry, Cara.

This is all my fault.

We are going to make
it home for Christmas.

How?

With a little bit of luck.

Luck?

Our planes were grounded.

We were stuck on a bus.

Now we're out in the middle
of nowhere on a stretch

in a blizzard.

We have not had
that great of luck.

I know it seems like everything
has gone wrong, but...

I kind of feel like some things
have gone right.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

Is this you?

No, no, no, I wanna hear.
I wanna listen.

You don't even like
country music.

Well, I like you.

I mean, I... I really like
your voice, so...

Joplin.

Have you been here?

My friend lives here.
Nathan Johnson.

I... I haven't thought
about that guy in years.

He was the best bass player
I knew growing up.

Yeah, he met a girl in Joplin,

and she gave him an ultimatum,
music or her.

He chose her and he never
looked back.

I wonder if he'd help us out
with a place to stay tonight.

Let's see here...

Hi, this is Nate.
Leave a message.

Nate.

Hey, buddy, it's your old pal,
Lee.

Listen, man I'm in your neck
of the woods

and actually cruising through
with a friend.

Was wondering if you had a place
for us to crash for the night.

I hope you're well, buddy.

Call me when you get this.

This blizzard's getting
real bad.

We should find someplace
to pull over.

Is that a church?

Should we go inside
and check it out?

Why not?

Hey, Momma.

Aha-ha, there you are.

What are you doing now?

Making mulled wine.

You guys open up your secret
Santa gifts yet?

Oh, of course not.

We're waiting for you.

This storm's getting pretty bad,
Momma.

I might miss Christmas.

Oh.

Oh, well.. well, let me know,
okay?

All right.

Bye, Momma.

Oh, don't worry about it.

If you're not home tomorrow,
we'll just celebrate Christmas

on the 26th.

I know, but it's not the same.

We'll try and save you
some of this ham.

Hey.

What's that I'm hearing?

Sounds like angels.

It's a choir.

I'm in a church and
they're practicing.

That song was
your mom's favourite.

I'll bet she's listening
in heaven.

Yeah, I hope so.

Travel safe, sweetheart.

All right. Love you, Dad.

Bye.

Your star?

It was always my dad's job
to put on the star,

'cause he was the tallest.

Huh.

But, uh, my mom asked me
to do it this year.

So, she saved it for me.

I thought you only decided
to go home yesterday.

Well, my mom always says
you gotta have faith.

I guess she has a lot of faith
in me.

Hmm.

When my dad got sick,
I was in Japan.

By the time I realized
about it,

it was too late.

I... I never got to say goodbye,
or, uh...

or tell him that I loved him.

Well, yesterday I saw you give
something very precious away

to somebody who needed it
more than you.

I think your father knew
where your heart was.

I've been running
from it for a long time.

Never made it hurt any less.

My family would
never say it, but...

I know I let 'em down when
they needed me the most.

My mom would have
loved this...

I know she wanted me to take
care of my dad and...

the business, and...

all she ever said was
"I trust you."

She was right to.

I know you talked
about needing faith, but...

sometimes it's so hard
to have faith

when it just feels like
all there is, is emptiness.

Well, I guess that's when
you need it the most.

How does your family usually
spend Christmas Eve?

My mom and I would stay up
all night baking pies.

We would always wait up
and open our first gift

right at the stroke of midnight.

We did that too.

Really?

Yeah.

Well, I guess we're gonna
miss out on that one this year.

I have an idea.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas.

Hope Nate calls back soon.

It's really starting to come
down out there.

I'm just gonna go and say
it right now.

You are in for one
epic surprise.

You okay?

No, I'm just tired.

Heath?

Yeah?

What were your, um, your plans

before you decided to go home
for Christmas?

Just stick close to the city,
work on my music.

Why?

Oh.

Our Christmas prayers
are answered.

Hey, Nate.

Yeah, it's old Heath.

Hey.

I know it's early yet, but uh,

Donna's asleep so we should
be quiet.

I gotta say, Lee.

I figured a big star like you
would be travelling

with more of an entourage.

Yeah, yeah, uh, well,
it's kind of a long story.

I hope we're not imposing
on Christmas Eve.

Oh, Donna will probably
think I'm Santa

for bringing home Lee.

...She hasn't been feeling
so good lately.

Well, tonight, you're
a lifesaver, so thank you.

Christmas, it's the time
for giving, right?

Uh, Cara, you'll be staying
in the guest room.

It's the top of the stairs,
first door on the right.

Bed's all made up, bathroom's
at the end of the hall.

Lee, living room couch,
if that's okay.

Hey. Just like old times.

All right.

Oh, hey.

This is Donna,
by the way.

And my girls,
Nell and Mandy.

So cute.

Yeah, come on,
I'll show you around.

All right. After you.

Thank you.

Here you go.

Well, here it is.

Uh-oh.

For Santa.

Take one.

All right.

Daddy!

Hey, monkey.

I thought I told you
to get to bed.

This here's Lee, Daddy's
old friend.

You must be Nell.

How come you were going to
eat eating Santa's cookies?

Uh, well. I'm helping out
Santa tonight.

Kind of like an elf.

Elves are little,
with pointy ears.

Well, I am more of a...
well, an elf helper.

See?

Where's your bag of gifts?

Santa's gonna bring those later.

But he asked me to deliver
the extra ones

to the super special kids.

What would you like?

For my mom to get better.

You know what I like to do
when I wanna feel better?

Sing a song.

You could sing her a song.

That could be nice.

But, I have an idea, if
it's okay with your dad.

How about I teach you a song,

and we sing it to your
mother together?

Really?

Sounds good to me.

Awesome.

I'm going to get Mandy.

She can sing too.

Okay.

It's hard for them to get
to sleep on Christmas Eve.

They're too excited.

Well, looks like I won't be
getting back out there tonight.

Well, we could watch 'em.

Uh, you sure?

Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.

Oh, thanks, Lee.

I mean, this blizzard, it's
a problem for most people.

But for my family,
it's a triple-time godsend.

Thanks.

Okay.

Kids?

Isn't it a little late
for singing?

We're learning a song

for Christmas.

It was Lee's idea.

Oh, it was Lee's idea?

Well, then I guess
I have no choice, right?

But what did this elf bring?

Uh, what does your Momma like?

Dessert.

Oh, dessert.

Well, let's go to the kitchen
and see what we can find.

Okay, you ready?

Here we go...

I'll take this.

Okay, who's gonna...
You're gonna roll it out?

That's perfect.

Okay, so what
we have to do is,

we have to make it in a perfect
circle so it's the crust, right?

Okay, ready.

Here I will take this.

Nice.

So what can I do to help?

Um, I think we got it.

Oh.

Okay, now we're gonna put it
on here.

Who wants to lift it up?

Me.

Good job.

We'll do it together.

One, two, three!

Ahh!

Oh, nice work.

Now push it all the way down.

Yeah. Good job.

Get it nice and flat like that.

Yes.

That is perfect.

Okay, all right.

Now what are we going to put
in the pie?

Ha!

Ready for that?

Mmm.

This is Cara's Stonebridge jam.

Ready?

Oh, woah, that's so cool.

Look at that.

You know what, I think
we need some more.

All right, number two,
goin' in.

Here we go.

You wanna spread it now?
Your turn, okay.

That's perfect.

What about the topping?

Uh... Oh, you know what,
I think I have something.

Okay, take one of these...

-You got it? You ready?
-Yummy.

Break it up into little pieces.

Just like that, yeah.

These look so good.

You wanna try a little bite?

Yeah.

That's a good idea.

Mom's going to love this.

Okay, it's perfect.

Thank you.

And... Ta-da.

In it goes.

Perfect.

Now you know how to make a pie,
you can do it anytime you want.

Okay. It's bedtime.

Aww.

Now Cara's right.

You don't want to be too tired
to sing for your mom.

Un-huh.

Will you put out a piece of
candy for Santa?

And Rudolph too?

Can you?

-I'll do it.
-Okay.

You got it.

Off to bed.

Goodnight, girls.

Goodnight.

Night.

Is everything all right?

Huh?

Just seems like something's
bothering you.

Oh, just anxious about
getting home, I guess.

Well, look, I wanted
to thank you.

For what?

For all of this.

The advice, the pie.

The company.

Couldn't have done it
without ya.

Oh, I think you would've been
just fine on your own.

Maybe.

But I'm sure glad I didn't have
to be.

What about your fiancée?

Fiancée?

Gail Fairweather?

It's not funny.

I thought we were...

Thought we were what?

Thought we were being honest
with each other.

Gail is just a friend.

But the magazine said...

Was wrong.

So, you guys never dated?

She was there for me
when my dad passed away.

Yeah.

People make assumptions,

but she's like a little
sister to me.

Yeah.

To be honest, she's not
really my type.

Oh.

You have a type?

All right.

Let's just say she would never
sing with a bunch of strangers

in a small town in
the middle of nowhere.

She would never cut
paper snowflakes,

and I know one thing for sure.

What?

She would never ever,
ever be caught dead

wearing that reindeer sweater.

I like that reindeer sweater.

I agree.

Oh, presents.

Huh?

It's... it's officially
Christmas.

We have to exchange
one present.

It's tradition.

Yeah.

Come on.

All right.

This is a country act
you might actually like.

Merry Christmas.

Okay...

Oh!

The Roamers!

I cannot believe
you found this.

I told you they were famous.

Um, that's for you.

Merry Christmas.

Oh.

My dad has one that he loves
and he always brings it out

at Christmas, so... I don't
even know if you play, but...

Okay, so you definitely play.

I had one of these growing up.

Thank you.

It's perfect.

Ooh.

The pies.

Oh.

That looks good.

Not bad for an improvised
topping, huh?

Who knows?

Maybe you started a
new Christmas tradition.

That's not a bad idea.

Where are you going?

It's Christmas.

I'm gonna go start
my own miracle.

Hello.

Hey, Soph.

Um, I'm sorry I'm calling
you so late.

Do you have any of those
candy bars left?

Some, why?

Can you do me a huge favour?

Time to get up, Mom!
It's Christmas!

Christmas!

Merry Christmas.

Okay, you go ahead.

Come on.

What's all this?

I got a special gift for you
this Christmas.

Come on.

Lee?

Hey, Donna.

Hi.

I... I don't understand.

Well, Nate really took care
of us last night.

Oh, this is my friend,
Cara Hill.

Hi Mrs. Johnson,
so nice to meet you.

You have such a wonderful
family.

Well, that I know, but...

um, please, we don't do it
formal here.

You can just call me Donna.

Mom, sit down.

Mom, Mom, sit down.

Okay.

We have a gift for you.

Okay.

All right.

Now, you guys ready?

Did you know about this?

Mmmm, yeah.

What did you do?

I put the jam in.

I made the crust.

Mm, the topping!

Mmm.

Whatever it is, is
absolutely divine.

Well that is Cara's candy.

We will.

Should be a safer ride.

Oh, yeah.

And, um, I hope you find
your song.

I think I will.

It's funny how
coming home

brings you back
where you belong.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Uh, I should probably...

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Uh, Lee, um.

Do you want to come in
for a cup of cider?

It's my mom's famous recipe.

Uh... maybe warm up
before you head back out?

Yeah, yeah I'd like that.

Cool.

Wow.

It feels like home.

Yeah.

Well, I'll go warm up the cider,

and you can just hang out
here by the fire.

Sure.

Dad, hi.

Hi, oh, Merry Christmas.

You made it.

Of course.

Yeah.

Um, I wanted to introduce
you to someone.

Heath Sawyer.

Does everybody know
who you are?

Please.

Call me Lee.

I've seen you on TV.

Sweetheart, you didn't tell me
you know Heath Sawyer.

Oh, we go way back.

Oh yeah.
Two whole days.

Well, I was hoping to get
caught up on your trip,

but, uh, we could
save that for later.

Um...

Yeah, Dad.

So, I wanted to talk to you
about that,

um, so we did get the loan
in New York.

But there are some
strings attached,

um, that I tried
to tell you about.

I just didn't... want
to ruin Christmas.

What strings?

Well, Lionel said we had
to add more machines

and that would replace
half of our workers.

That's never gonna happen.

I know, that's how I feel,
but that's the...

that's the only offer.

I'll call him.

Dad, you can't.

This... Don't call him.

I have an idea though, um,

for a new product that I think
could be really amazing.

Candy bars.

We could make them out
of the dried fruits,

and the nuts, and the honey,
just like Mom used to make.

Candy bars?

Yeah.

I really think that it could be
something special.

We're barely squeaking by now.

We can't afford the risk
of something new.

I know, but Dad, we
can't afford not to.

Maybe I could help.

Uh, I got plenty of money.

I wouldn't mind backing Cara's
business if the bank won't.

Well, thanks, but, uh,
we're doing just fine.

We've always gotten along.

We don't run up debt that we
may not be able to pay back.

I don't care about the money.

Besides, I don't think
you'll have to.

I mean, it'll take off.

Heath, no.

I got faith.

It's too bad we couldn't
have met

under better circumstances,
Lee.

If you'll both, um,
excuse me.

Dad.

I'm sorry, Cara.

I thought he would agree.

Heath, you said I could do
this on my own,

and then you offer to give
me money?

It looks like you're
just expecting this to fail.

I didn't mean it that way.

Well, that's what he heard.

I thought you believed in me.

I do.

You know what, I think
that you should just go.

I know that you mean well,
but it was stupid to think

that any of this was ever
going to work.

Cara.

Please Heath, just go.

Dad?

Your candies.

I sent a copy to Lionel.

I wish you would have talked
to me first.

Well, maybe I should have,

but I just did what I thought
was right.

This business means
the world to me, Dad.

I would do anything to save it.

I think this is what Mom
would have wanted.

Snowball fight!

Hey guys.

Uncle Lee! Uncle Lee!

Oh!

Hey!

Oh, you guys got big.

Woah.

I missed y'all.

Where's Grandma?

She's inside.

Okay.

Oh, son.

Momma.

Finally. Oh...

I've missed you, Momma.

I've missed you too.

Lee! You made it!

Look at you!

Oh, my goodness!

Come on in,
get your coat off.

Sit by the fire.

Your clothes are all snowy
and wet.

Thank you so much.

You gonna eat those onions?

I'll eat them.

Excuse me, did you do this?

Hey...

Why is this on my plate?

Penny for your thoughts?

I cannot believe I almost
missed this.

I know.

I know it's been tough...

losing your dad.

But it just means

that we all have to pull each
other a little closer.

Yeah.

I have something for you.

In fact, I have something
for all of you, but...

but I wanted to do it
when we're all together.

First, to my family.

Merry Christmas.

Mom.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Cheers.

These are the presents
Mom's been working on all year.

Ooh, look at that.

And, this is for Gwen.

And Lee.

Ah, thank you.

This is lovely.

Mom...

Thank you, Momma.

Hey, hey, where
are you going?

There's something I have to do.

I'll be back though real soon.

But...

Her name's Cara.

We travelled the country
together.

Ahh.

So, you like her?

More than like her.

But I think I might have screwed
this one up.

You know, Dad once told me
that it's what you do

after you lose everything
that defines who you are.

Just say how you feel.

Don't be shy.

Speak from your heart.

You always understand me,
Momma.

Yeah.

Your mother was the one that had
us branch out into nut butters.

It was a risk back then, too,

but we got another 30 good years
out of the business.

You take after her,
you know.

I'm sorry for being so stubborn.

If you think the candy bars
will help, then...

let's try it.

Really?

Really.

I'd bet on you any day.

It's Lionel.

Hello?

Guess what I'm eating?

I believe this one's called
"Rudolph's Raspberry Ripple."

You got my proposal?

I sure did.

Your friend Sophie
just dropped it off.

Little chatty, to say the least.

But I gotta be honest with you, Cara.

These are the best things
I've ever tasted.

The holiday themes?

Brilliant.

That's the marketing hook
it needs.

That's my mom's recipe.

That's what she used to feed me
when I was a kid.

See, that's gonna be the best
part of the story.

Everyone loves a little piece
of home, right?

Well, listen.

I can't promise you anything,

but I'm gonna kick
this upstairs.

Really?

You have my word.

Merry Christmas, Cara.

Thank you.

He's gonna show
it to his bosses!

Oh my goodness.

Oh, good for you, sweetheart.

This is crazy.

Yeah.

I'll be right back.

Hey.

Can I come in?

It'll only take a minute.

So, I know that I overstepped
my boundaries.

I just, I wanted to help you
the way that you helped me.

I do believe in you, Cara.

It's impossible not to.

You're unlike anybody
I've ever met.

You've brought me home,
in more ways than one.

You certainly have a way
with words.

Does that mean
you forgive me?

Mmm, it's a start.

So, it's still Christmas.

Mm-hmm.

You got any plans?

No.

Do you like pecan pie?

I love pecan pie.

So, this is the place.

Oh, Momma.

This is Cara.

Hi.

Oh, welcome.

Oh, thank you.

Yeah.

My son is very taken
with you.

And he has excellent taste.

He gets it from me.

Momma.

I have to agree.

She's my girl, after all.

Oh.

This is my dad, Bob.

Oh, what a pleasure.

Lee said these were
your favourites.

Thank you.

This is Stacey.

You can tell she's
my older sister,

because she is so much
smarter than me.

That's right, yeah.

You must be Cara.

Yeah.

Well, let's get you
and your dad fed.

Is there anything
you don't eat?

No, we... no, we like it all.

Oh, good, good.

She's lovely.

Yeah.

Oh.

Oh. I better take this.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay everyone, dessert!

I hope you're still hungry.

Hey, Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas?

I figured it's the least
Merry Christmas.

I just got all your messages.

It sounds like an actual
nightmare.

No, no, everything's fine.

I made it home, guided by
a Christmas angel.

There you go.

Do you want me to reschedule
a return flight?

I mean, you're due back in
the studio tomorrow at 1:00.

You know what?

Cancel that, and everything else
till after New Year's.

I'm gonna stay home
for a little while.

Really?

Huh.

Well, what about the new song?

When are you gonna write it?

I think I already have.
