Thank you.

Back with another video.

Okay, we're going to try again.

Hey all, it's Leia.

What was that? Okay.

Hey all, it's Leia.

Back with another video.

Today, I wanted to talk to you guys
about Christmas. It's coming soon, so

chat traditions and stuff.

As Gen Z, it's up to us to either
continue or bring an end to traditions

previous generations.

So, here's a list of Christmas
traditions.

that millennials have set up for us.

Vegan avocado chips for Santa, or maybe
some beard oil.

Oh, okay.

Genderless gingerbread persons. Okay, I
personally think we should keep this.

Swipe right under the mistletoe. I mean,
I guess it's romantic.

Let me know in the comments if you think
we should keep any of these, or if you

have any traditions of your own.

Please remember to share this video with
your friends, and subscribe to my

YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching.

Bye!

You found the tree.

I waited for you to put the ornaments up
with me.

Then I'm going to decorate the front
window.

Your dad gave me this ornament on our
first Christmas together in the city.

Don't unpack too much, okay? We don't
have to unpack at all in a few weeks.

I just wanted some Christmas stuff out.

Look, Leia.

Who should be hearing any day now about
that new job in the city. So, probably

be moving after New Year's.

You already have a job.

Yeah, but I want to be a real cop. In a
real city.

I mean, come on. I can't spend the rest
of my life being deputy of Mayberry.

Whatberry? It's this town from an old
show.

Whatever. On to the next home. Look, the
next home will be our forever home. We

had a forever home.

Well, that was... different.

Okay?

But the next one will be our last, I
promise.

Did you get the orange juice I put on
the list?

Oh, come on, Leah. We talked about this.
That stuff has more sugar than a kid's

morning 60 sticks in Willy Wonka's
chocolate factory.

Here. Kale and spinach.

Super healthy. Keeps you regular.

Regular? Yeah.

You know.

Keeps your bathroom time on schedule.

You have a schedule?

I feel like we're getting off track
here.

That's gross, Mom.

It's healthy.

And why I can't drop you off at the
school.

Because we're in a police truck.

And you're afraid your friends will
think you spent the night in jail?

No. Because I don't have any friends.

The kids are all butts and stuff.

Hey, come on. Don't say that.

Don't say and stuff. Just say the kids
are your butts.

But I'm sure they're not. I mean, come
on, Leia. Just give them a chance.

Why? We're just going to move in a month
anyways.

Have a great day at school, sweetheart.

Don't be like your mother.

Be nice instead.

See you next week for some of those
candy canes.

Unloading inventory again?

Maybe. I'm confused. Are you a stock boy
or a sheriff?

They need help. It was a 5 a .m.
delivery.

In a fire zone.

So? The quicker we unload, the better.

Okay. Well, then it's a good thing I
brought you this. Light peppermint

right? Yes, ma 'am.

Gotta get in that holiday spirit.

Ugh. I don't know how you drink that
stuff.

What?

You don't like mocha? No.

I drink it black like my soul.

So you enjoy your mocha, and I'll enjoy
my daily anti -murdery juice.

Deputy who jokes about murder.

So glad I gave you this job.

So who was in the shop this morning? Was
it Mario or Leroy?

Couldn't tell you.

You'll get their names down eventually.

Takes time.

No need. If I need anything, I can just
say, hey, you there, guy with a face.

Okay, big city.

Big city. I like it.

Around here, it's good to know everyone.

It helps squash a lot of the problems if
you already know the people involved.

What problems?

Too many cakes at the bake sale?

Sometimes.

You know, I don't think I remember a
single crime ever being committed here.

even when we were kids. Why do you think
that is?

Take Doug here.

Morning, Doug.

How are you?

Morning, Sheriff. Deputy.

Annie. Do you remember Doug?

Can't say I do.

Apologies. It's all right.

I don't know that I'm that memorable.

Doug Richardson.

Pleasure. Deputy Willows. Not everybody
calls me Annie. Except my dentist who

calls me Bonnie, but it's been way too
long to correct her.

How's the shop doing, Doug?

Doing fine, Sheriff.

Ready for the Christmas rush.

That's great.

How are the boys?

Well, Danny's finishing up his first
semester at State, and hopefully Davey

join him next year, if all goes
according to plan.

Those boys have a bright future.

We'll see you all at Holiday Park.

Wouldn't miss it, Sheriff.

Good, good.

Doug of Doug's Hardware.

Aren't you glad you now know his name? I
know plenty of people.

Like who?

Name one person.

Leia's teacher, Skylar something.

That's because Skylar Posey went to high
school with us.

You really don't remember anyone else?
Look, I know faces. I'm bad with names.

But come on, eventually I'll get it.

Admit it.

You missed this place.

Missed is a strong word.

Take a deep breath.

What do you smell in this crisp, clean
air? Ah, pine soul.

It's actual pine, Annie.

Okay, come on, listen. It's a great
place to grow up, but I left for a

Uh, ouch.

I don't mean it like that, okay? I just
wanted to see the world, and so did

Sean. You sure did.

But I'm glad you're here now.

Yeah. Yeah, I am.

You know, there's a lot I don't miss
about the city, okay? I mean, I once saw

mom with her dog in the stroller and her
kid on the leash, so... Who's that one?

He got a name?

Herman Elliott.

The Hermit, is what the kids call him.

Herman the Harmless, is what I say.

Morning, Herman!

Oh, have you met Father Justin?

No.

But I should make an appointment for a
confession.

Got a lot to discuss. Tell them to clear
the schedule.

Hey, there's somebody I know.

Mayor... Lady Mayor.

Good morning, Mayor Ruth Mulligan.

It was close.

How does it look?

B -E -A -U -N -I -F -U -L.

It's like Christmas threw up all over
the building.

I think it looks great.

Got to get in the holiday spirit.

Okay, that's the second time you said
that today.

What are you, the Grinch? You know, did
you ever stop to think about maybe the

Grinch would be nicer if every five
minutes some dude wasn't singing songs

what a jerk he is?

Sheriff, hey.

All right, all right. I hear you.

My finest deputy's on her way.

Where am I going?

Miss Crenshaw's farm.

Again?

I mean, come on. That woman calls us at
least twice a week to complain about too

many clouds in the sky.

Hey, you remember who she is.

Progress.

I googled you.

Oh, uh... You've been here half the
school year and haven't talked to anyone

else but teachers.

I had to make sure you weren't a spy for
the witch.

The witch? The witch who lives outside
town.

You and I would have serious problems if
you were working for her.

Don't worry. Turns out you're legit.

Thanks. I found your YouTube videos.

Oh, those are just for me. I liked a few
and subscribed.

Really?

Oh, I'm Zora.

This is Sebastian.

See ya.

Sorry about your dad.

Okay, bye.

She's been kidnapped.

Slow down, Mrs. Crenshaw. You have to
find her. Tabitha's been missing for

days now.

Okay, how old is she?

She's four. She was born right there in
that barn. I delivered her myself.

Physical appearance?

Black and gray.

Matching her mama.

Gray. I'm so worried her fur is going to
get matted if she's not... Wait, is

Tabitha just a cat?

She's not just a cat, Deputy.

She is family. She's my child.

You need to take this serious right now.
It's down.

I think I've got enough here.

Listen, are you sure she's missing?

I see at least two cats in the house.

If I say Tabitha was stolen, she was
stolen.

And it's your duty to get her back.

Any signs of break -in? Doors locked?
Windows been tampered with?

Not a thing.

But they could be too cunning for the
likes of you.

Mm -hmm.

Okay, I'll look for your cat around
town, post some flyers. Do you have a

of the animal?

You look like the only animal that's
here.

Don't you touch a thing.

I know what you're thinking, that I'm
just some crazy witch.

What? Someone in that wretched town is
trying to hurt me.

I just know it.

They took my baby.

Mrs. Crenshaw, listen, I used to have a
cat.

I even bought it a present once, and
then I hid that present in the basement

with the rest of my family gifts.

In case you're wondering how weird I am.

Yeah.

And I want a receipt.

So much stuff. Why did you pull all that
out?

I'm busy.

That looks really beautiful.

Really. It's worth it.

Thanks.

I just don't want to go overboard, okay?

I was driving around today and I saw a
car that was dressed up

like Rudolph and I thought, this is
exactly why aliens don't visit us.

We never get to have fun at Christmas
anymore.

Last year we did nothing.

This year you're just going to ruin it
again.

Dad, you still... Dad isn't here.

What?

Maybe we could play a game later.

I think I saw Rudolph Monopoly in a box
earlier.

Actually I've got homework.

Morning, hey?

Wait, are you serious?

Uh -huh.

Leah, come on. We gotta go.

Can I come?

Do not leave my side. Do not say
anything. Got it? Got it.

Can you believe this?

It's an actual emergency. I think this
morning was the first time I turned on

the siren in years.

Hey, Tom. Hey, Princess Leia.

What's she doing there? Didn't have time
to drop her off at school. I'll do it

after. What do we got?

Someone stole our decorations.

It's awful. Simply awful. They even took
the nativity scene. What kind of a

monster steals Jesus?

Decorations. That's the emergency.

I don't think you quite comprehend the
ramifications of this, Deputy. This

holiday keeps our town alive.

How so?

Tourists, honey.

Tourists passing through, buying gifts.

feeling the small town charm.

The town needs that influx of cash.

And sales are down this month across the
board. So we are really counting on the

Holiday Park Treatacular.

Treatacular? It's our biggest weekend.

People from all over come into town to
see the lights at Holiday Park and the

tree decorating ceremony.

You remember?

Everyone brings a special ornament to
contribute to the town tree.

Yeah. It's a great night.

Our most important night.

And it all culminates right here at Town
Hall. And it hasn't even snowed. We're

on the case, Ruth.

We understand how serious this is.

Let's get a closer look. Shall we?

Yep.

Who would want to spike Christmas from
town hall?

Lights were ripped down.

Someone got a hold of an end in Yank.
How do you know that, Mom?

The way the staples are pulled away from
the wood.

Who's this little one? A junior deputy?

I'm Leia.

Security cameras?

No, ma 'am. We never needed them.

What kind of lights were they?

Standard outdoor lights from Doug's
hardware, maybe 50 strands altogether,

multicolored.

Hey, I've got something.

Okay.

How big was the nativity scene?

Oh, it was the entire holy moment.
Jesus, Mary, the three wise men.

With all that at the scene, this must
have been a truck of some kind, a

large enough to fit all that in. Let's
call the DMV, check records for any

trucks in town.

Right.

What's that door lead to?

To our basement, where we keep all the
landscaping tools.

Is it usually left open?

No, we lock it up at night.

Please could have used this to get a
hold of the light.

Hey, what are you doing?

You'll destroy the fingerprints.

Fingerprints?

Annie, we don't have print powder here.

How is that possible?

You said it yourself. We don't have
crime.

What if there's a murderer or something?

We'd get help from the state.

This is just about the most exciting
thing we've ever seen.

Sheriff, hey, I'm going to need you to
go to the hardware store and get me a

candle, lighter, and some clear tape.

Mayor Mulligan, go to the party store
and get a balloon.

Just one?

Just one. Fill it halfway with water.

And I need a makeup brush.

How's this?

That's my girl.

What are you waiting on?

Go.

Okay.

Hey, y 'all. It's Leia. I am at the
scene of a crime.

Someone stole the town hall lights and
decorations.

Even sweet baby Jesus.

This is my mom. Lead detective on the
case.

I'm not a detective.

Oh, good. Everyone's back.

Hey, want to see something cool and
science -y? Heck yes.

All right, Mayor, balloon me. I hope
this is right.

That's perfect. Hey, light the candle.

Okay.

There we go.

All right, bring it over here, and I'll
swirl it around a little bit. Okay.

Perfect. The balloon won't burst because
of the water inside, and the smoke from

the candle collects on the balloon's
surface to create soot.

Pretty good.

Okay, Leia, makeup brush. Right here.

I'll use the makeup brush to collect
some of the soot from the balloon's

surface.

And hold this, please. Thank you.

Now, I go over to the ladder, and I put
this where I think someone's fingerprint

might have been.

Okay. Tape. There you go.

Perfect.

Like that.

We have a print.

Wow. Wicked.

Pretty lit, huh?

Do kids still say lit these days? Yeah.

No.

Okay, so, like, let me know in the
comments whose fingerprint you think

was. What? No, Leia. Please remember to
share this video with your friends and

subscribe to my YouTube channel.

Bye.

Okay, you are not posting that.

Why not?

It's just a fingerprint trick.

Because you're not.

Come on, Mom.

It's cool.

You look awesome and stuff.

Don't say and stuff. Just say I look
awesome.

Okay, fine.

But nothing else about this case, do you
understand?

Got it.

What now?

This is your scene, it seems.

Well, I'm going to stay here and keep
dusting this ladder, see if I can find

more fingerprints.

Hey, would you mind dropping off Leah at
school and then come back here, start

knocking on doors, see if the neighbors
saw anything.

Sure, boss.

OMG, I can't believe you're at the crime
scene. I sent everyone your video.

You're like famous.

We're taking questions one at a time.
One at a time, people.

Do you have any information on the
missing town hall decoration?

I don't like to gossip. That's beneath
me.

But I heard it was an inside job.

I didn't see nothing.

We can't have Christmas without those
decorations.

We can't. We just can't. Who knows what
they'll take next?

The mall Santa's beard?

Rudolph!

Yule predates the Christmas holiday by
thousands of years. In the Norse

Yule refers to the god Odin.

If you ask me, I think it was Hermon the
Hermon. I ain't paranoid or nothing.

Why?

What have you heard?

Yule celebrations included ritual
sacrifices, though the god Odin would

him with fertility and good battles.

Maybe it would bother Justin.

But don't tell him I said that.

What if he smites me?

Okay, let's recap.

No one saw anything. No one knows
anything.

Everyone is accusing everyone.

Hey, at least we got the word out that
we're looking.

Maybe someone will come forward.

You do have that one print off the
ladder. My friend's running it for the

town. We get no hit, she'll go whiter.

I don't think it'll come to that.

Come on, Hay. You know this whole town.
Who do you think did it?

I honestly don't believe anyone in this
town could do something like this.

And why?

I can't imagine.

What do you know about the mailman?

Think he could be going postal on
Christmas, you know? Taking it out on

decor? Charlie loves Christmas.

Maybe. Think about it. All those
deliveries on Christmas could be pretty

overwhelming. He volunteers at Holiday
Park every year.

Come on, hey, you've got to give me
something.

I couldn't begin to say.

I can.

ID came back on the print with a
positive match. Who is it?

Of course those are my fingerprints on
that ladder. I used it. Used it for

Who do you think hung those slides?

Ask the mayor.

You can ask the mayor anything.

Mr. Richardson here says he's the one
who put up the Christmas lights. Sure

He does it every year.

You didn't think to mention that before?

I didn't think it was relevant.

I must have forgotten to lock the
storage when I left.

I'm really sorry about that, Mayor
Mulligan. I've had a lot on my mind

No worries at all. I'm actually here to
get the replacement.

You buy the decorations from Doug?

Everyone in town does.

Not this year.

I'm sorry?

Yesterday you said business was doing
just fine.

Normally around this time we're
bustling.

People grabbing up holiday lights and
decor.

But not this year.

Truth is, we're struggling.

Yesterday, you mentioned that one of
your sons is in college. The other son's

going to join him.

College tuition is pretty expensive.

You think I took those flights to drum
up business?

Well, the mayor is here right now to
drop city money in your store.

If people find out there's a thief in
town, he'd drive them away.

Why would I do that?

No one is accusing anyone of anything.

Besides, Doug is right. Who would want
to come shop here if they're afraid

something will be stolen?

Are we done?

If it's all the same, I'd like to be
finished with this interrogation.

Yes. Thank you for your time, Mr.
Richardson.

Doug didn't do this.

How do you know? I just know.

Okay, in our line of work, I just know
doesn't cut it. He has two sons.

He needs the business.

Otherwise, he'd have to tell his
youngest that he can't go to college

big brother.

Still doesn't make the young lights,
right?

If he did it, which I'm not convinced he
did.

Herman the Hermit. What's his story?

He's not a real hermit. He lives outside
of town, but he comes into town for

groceries, errands, you know. How do you
feel about Christmas?

I don't know that I've ever seen him at
Holiday Park, but he's harmless. I know,

like you've mentioned.

Hey, thing has a camera. You see that?

Yeah, but it doesn't aim over the
street, only the sidewalk.

So, let's wear the shot. We could pull
the footage. You know, maybe we'll catch

somebody going toward the crime scene.

Yeah, I like that.

Great.

Someone had a good day.

I guess so.

And I've been thinking, maybe it's okay
if you start to drop me off at school

sometime.

I can do that.

Cool.

Do you want to help me with something?

Is it related to the case?

It's related to a case.

Yes, yes, yes.

Okay, then put your seatbelt on. I can
still arrest you.

Don't think I won't.

Uh -oh.

Someone lose a cat?

Oh, she's not mine. I'm just here
helping my mom.

Ah, Father Justin Holbrook.

Nice to formally meet you, Deputy.

Mr. Crenshaw's cat ran away. Not that I
blame the cat.

Ah, I know her very well.

The cat?

Oh, no, Mr. Crenshaw.

Lovely woman. And a genius.

I'm sorry, are we talking about the same
person? Was it the edge of town, cat

lady, wild hair?

She's been a bit reclusive since her
husband passed.

She used to work at NASA.

Like as an astronaut?

Well, not exactly.

In astrophysics, I believe.

Her husband always dreamed of owning a
farm, and she worked remotely until,

well, together they made each other's
dreams possible.

I'll keep an eye out for Tabitha.

Wait, maybe the same person who stole
the decorations took the cat.

That is too bad about those decorations.

You suppose somebody wants a literal war
on Christmas?

You know, I had a friend fighting the
front lines of Christmas 2012 to 2014.

She was stationed at Starbucks, Pumpkin
Sprites Infantry.

Mom.

Sheriff Hay says you've really taken
charge of this case.

We're lucky to have you.

You went out to talk to Herman, I
believe.

Wait, what? Hay did?

Yes, ma 'am.

We have to go.

But I want to hang more fires. That's
not the priority right now, Leia. What

about Tabitha? Look, I can't leave you
here by yourself.

Mom, I'm 13.

Father, would you mind?

No, say no more.

I'd be happy to help until your mother
gets back.

That'd be awesome.

Okay. Thank you.

Sure, sure.

Bye, Mom.

Bye, Mom. Let's go. Let's go.

Why didn't you tell me that you were
coming here?

Annie, I appreciate that you have more
experience working cases like this. I

don't think anyone's worked a case like
this. But the way you interrogate

people, it isn't right.

Okay, look, I know how you feel about
these people.

I'm sure suspecting them is beyond
difficult, but I'm just trying to find

who did it so it doesn't happen again.
Well, that may be, but... What I'm

to say is... I'm sorry.

Okay, I could have been more delicate,
and I will try harder next time.

Okay. Okay.

So, when did we disrespect Herman?

I thought about what you said, and you
were right.

So, someone in my town stole the
decorations, and I decided to start

rounds. You suspect him?

I worry about him.

I worry that he might be jealous of all
the town folk with all their money when

Herman has so little.

Yeah, and the whole town calls him
Herman the Hermit. Which wouldn't

make him feel very welcome.

Hey, Herman.

Who is it?

Sheriff Hay.

I didn't do nothing. Oh, no one said you
did.

What's this all about then?

It's a nice truck you got there.

You looking to buy, are you?

You looking to sell?

I might be if the price is right.

It don't run, though.

It ain't run in years.

Sure about that?

If it ran, I wouldn't be walking into
town to work every day, now would I?

now. Got something here, hey?

These new?

No, I had them forever.

They're just antiques, practically.

I just ain't exactly had time to put
them up yet.

That's my fault.

Oh, honey. Millie.

Harvey spends so much time taking care
of me, he barely has time for much else.

Oh, go on back inside, honey, please.

Oh, no, I want to sit out front.

I want to feel the sun.

Setting up Christmas decorations can be
a real pain.

I used to tell my husband that Christmas
lights should come with coupons for

couples counseling.

I thought things would get better when
our daughter came along, but...

Turns out kids go with holiday
decorations like puppies in hurricanes.

I like this one.

She's funny.

You okay?

Yeah.

You two have a nice day.

Yeah.

Bye, y 'all.

Honey.

You excited for Christmas?

I guess.

That doesn't sound very convincing.

My mom will probably mess it up again.

What do you mean?

My dad loved Christmas.

We used to do all sorts of fun
traditions together.

You don't anymore?

He died.

Oh.

I'm so sorry.

The first year with Adam, Mom was too
sad to do anything, so we didn't really

have a Christmas.

Then she said she wanted to have a fresh
start somewhere new.

So that's why you moved here?

Yeah.

But she wants to move back to the city
as soon as possible.

Sheriff Tom only gave her this job until
she finds something else.

And you're afraid that this Christmas
will be like the last one?

I thought... Being here would let Mom
have fun again.

But, like, she still doesn't want to do
any Christmas stuff.

Well, um... What do you like to do when
you can't do Christmas stuff?

I have a YouTube channel.

My last video got tons of views.

Really? Well, then, um... Maybe you
could help me with something.

Like what?

Some of the people in our town...

have forgotten the reason for the
season, the true meaning of Christmas.

I can tell you know it.

I do?

Yeah, sure you do. I don't think you
just miss the traditions and things you

used to do.

You miss doing them with your father,
with your mother, that loving family

That's what Christmas is all about.

And sometimes people just need a
reminder, you know?

So, I was wondering...

Maybe you could put together a video for
me.

What kind of video?

All right.

Talk to as many people as you can and
ask them two questions.

What does Christmas mean to them?

And what is their favorite Christmas
memory?

That's it?

That's it.

I think it could help people a lot.

Really? Really.

Love is always a gift worth giving.

Okay. I'll do it. All right.

Let's say we hang some more of those
flyers.

Okay. Let's go find Tabitha. All right.

Hey, Mom.

Can I interview you?

What, for a class assignment?

No, actually.

It's for Father Justin.

He wants me to ask everyone questions
about Christmas.

Sure. Cool.

Christmas means chaos.

I mean, just try to go shopping in
December and you'll know exactly what I

People are just as likely to elbow you
in the face over a Barbie dream house as

they would wish you Merry Christmas.

Wow, Mom.

You asked.

Okay. Well, what is your favorite
Christmas memory?

Oh, my favorite Christmas memory.

He said they were antiques. We figured
maybe he was going to sell them on eBay

for extra cash.

Nope. Those are not our lights. Are you
sure?

100%. Don't worry.

We'll find them.

It's not about recovering the lights,
Sheriff. It's about catching whoever

them. Word has already gotten out about
the thief.

People are canceling hotel reservations.

At this rate, the Treatacular is going
to be a... Disaster? Yes!

You are coming, aren't you, Deputy? You
simply must.

Well, if I simply must.

Hey, do you mind if I bring my weird
roommate?

You mean your daughter?

Yeah, don't worry. She'll be cool. Yes,
of course.

Do you have any other friends you could
bring?

Uh... Hey, you know what? It's the bank.
They got the security footage ready.

Tom? We'll let you know if there's any
update on the case.

Thank you. Mm -hmm.

Did you find Tabitha yet?

Not yet, Mrs. Crenshaw.

What is taking so long? Sorry, we're
busy working on more important things.

Actual crimes.

How dare you insinuate... Miss Crenshaw,
I assure you we are doing everything we

can to find Tabitha. We put the word
out. We posted flyers all over the town.

Why don't you come to the treatacular
this weekend? We can put the word out

about Tabitha together.

Humbug.

Anna was right.

And you should only visit people once a
year.

What does Christmas mean to you?

Uh, sadly, I think that Christmas has
become all about lights, decorations,

presents, all the shiny things, without
the true feelings behind it.

Uh, but I pray that will change.

And I think you helped make that happen.

What is your favorite Christmas memory?

Got the footage queued up?

I'm viewing it now.

Is that my dry cleaning? Yeah, I passed
it on the way here. Figured I'd send you

a trip.

Anything?

Uh, no.

It's all quiet on the western front.

Would you mind taking over while I
change? I spilled some mocha on myself

earlier. Thought you smelled a little
pepperminty.

Think you've bought yourself a new
holiday cologne.

I wish.

It's been nice having a deputy around.

Miss working so close with someone else.

Not used to having a teammate?

No, not since swim team.

And even then we all still swim solo.

After dad took off, mom, she was always
working, so I got used to being alone.

Anyway, I guess I'm trying to say I'm
glad you're here.

Look, Tom, I...

You going to finish that

sentence? Yeah, yeah.

I thought of something Christmassy that
I actually enjoyed.

Is that right?

Yeah, Christmas sugar cookies. You know,
right there in the name. Sugar.

Love a sugar rush.

What about Coco?

Coco.

Who's that?

Doesn't it seem a little late for her to
be wandering around town?

I think I know who she is.

Uh, presents. I was shopping for
presents.

At midnight.

On a school night?

For my dad. I didn't want him to see
what I was getting him for Christmas.

You can open that late.

A mini -mart?

You went to a mini -mart to buy
presents?

Probably bought candy or something.

Still.

You shouldn't be sneaking out late at
night. Your parents would be worried

It's just my dad, and he works late
anyway.

No more late -night shopping sprees,
okay?

You can go back to class.

She's hiding something.

I know.

And I got news for you. Even Santa uses
Amazon Prime.

Only that kid doesn't shop online.

No way she took the decorations.

I mean, how would she have held it all
away?

I'm going to go pick up Leia.

Hey, say, Annie.

Mm -hmm?

What are you doing tonight?

Nothing much.

Why?

There's this cookies and cocoa event at
the space between tonight.

Kids decorate cookies, parents watch.

I don't know.

Might be fun.

For you and Leia.

You gonna be there?

I sure am.

Meet you there?

Yeah. Yeah, sounds great.

On the first day of Christmas, my true
love gave to me a portrait

and a pear tree.

Evening, ladies.

Oh, hey, Tom.

Can I go now? Sure.

Were you waiting for me?

Take your cocoa.

On the 13th day of Christmas, my true
love said to me, I think I might be a

hoarder. I mean, you've got a point.

There's no way you're still accepting
gifts from someone after four days of

birds.

There's that laugh.

What's wrong with my laugh?

It's a good thing. It takes me back.

To? You and Sean and your non -stop
shenanigans.

I could never keep up. You held your
own.

Barely. For you, it was effortless. And
for me, I had to, like, bring my A -game

every time we hung out.

But if I could make Miss Annie Willow
laugh, that was a gold star night.

So, yeah.

It's a good thing.

Because it always feels like a win.

Sorry, I just haven't had a lot to laugh
about lately.

I know.

I miss him.

Me too.

I guess that's why I've been such a
scrooge lately.

I hadn't noticed.

Ouch!

Sean always dove headfirst into
Christmas.

We were practically drowning in it, and
then when Leia was born, it just got

worse.

I mean, butter.

I mean, nothing but songs and trees and
cookies and elf

on the shelf and upchuck duck and...
Upchuck duck?

Yeah.

He put this Santa hat on this really
weird duck puppet and instead of an

advent calendar, it would throw up on
Leia every morning, like a little toy or

piece of candy or a...

Objections for a two -hour scavenger
hunt.

I just wish I had told him how grateful
I was. For Am.

For everything.

For everything.

Annie.

I knew.

Hi.

This is nice.

Watching a grown woman pout into her
cocoa.

No.

I mean, being off duty, just talking.

Yeah.

Yeah, it is nice.

You know,

something happens to you every time you
look at that little girl of yours.

It's like the walls come down and I see
a spark of something.

The real you.

Leia's getting all Christmassy, too.

Father Justin has her doing this video
project.

You don't think Father Justin could have
done it, do you?

Somebody else is obsessed, too.

What happened to off -duty? I can't help
it, okay? This is the way my mind

works.

Father Justin is a priest.

So, what if he's upset about how
commercial the holiday's become? Wants

everybody to stop and appreciate it and
teach us a lesson?

Feels like a reach, but I guess we
shouldn't rule anyone out.

And I want to keep Doug Richardson on
that list.

That was his fingerprint on the ladder.

And he has motivation.

That's fair.

Hey, y 'all.

Tonight, I wanted to update you on the
Christmas crime the moment you've all

been waiting for. Whose fingerprint was
on the ladder?

Doug Richardson, owner of the hardware
store.

What was he doing with the ladder?

Was he at Town Hall that night? I don't
know.

What I do know is he is suspect number
one.

Good morning.

Homework due today. Yes, ma 'am. Hey.
Hello. Have a seat.

Hey. Hey, Skylar. Checking out the old
haunt? Yeah, it's a real blast from the

past.

Well, I thought I escaped, but here I
am.

Right back where I started.

Get me out.

Kennedy, you know I love being your
teacher.

Shouldn't you be in class? Get in there.

Bye, Mom. Bye.

Still smells the same.

Like worn books and memories?

Boys wearing too much of their dad's
cologne.

We wanted to put up Christmas
decorations, but some of the parents

celebrate the holidays, so the school
board wouldn't let us.

Big surprise.

Much parents complained, if you don't
mind me asking.

You didn't hear it from me, but it was
Mr. Anderson.

You know his daughter, Zora.

They don't celebrate Christmas?

Nope. So there'd be no reason for her to
be buying gifts at a mini -mart at

midnight. Is there any reason why
anybody should be buying gifts at a mini

at midnight?

See you later.

All right, class.

Let's get started.

What does Christmas mean to you?

Christmas to me means a nice two -week
break.

I mean, you know, it's not that I don't
want to see you kids. It's just that

midterms and parent -teacher
conferences, and it just gets so busy

What's your favorite Christmas memory?

Olivia Karnick, Channel 6.

Why did you steal the decorations?

Were you taking a stand against
Christmas?

Who do you hate more, Santa or Jesus?
Hey, hey, hey. What's going on here?

Why have you not made an arrest yet if
you already know that Mr. Richardson is

the thief? I'm not a thief. Mr.

Richardson is not a suspect at this
time.

There's no story here.

Then why were his fingerprints on the
ladder?

I saw the video.

The fingerprints are dug from when he
put up the lights.

Wait a second.

What video?

What were you thinking?

Do you have any idea what you've done to
this man's life?

You said it was his fingerprint. But we
didn't release that to the media, Leah,

and this is exactly why, okay? You
gather the evidence before you jump to

conclusions. And the evidence says that
Doug is most likely innocent.

You didn't do it?

His son told Sheriff Hay that he was up
working with his dad late the night

before, and then Doug had to be into
work early the next morning, and he

probably just didn't have sufficient
time to steal those decorations.

But that's not the point, okay? The
point is you can't just publish that

stuff. I never should have taken you to
that crime scene.

But it was so cool getting to see you
work. You did awesome.

And my videos are finally getting views
and likes and attention.

Sweetheart, listen.

You can't just post that kind of stuff
without thinking about it first.

Okay? Once you post it, it's out there
and you can't take it back and it has

real life consequences.

I have to take your phone.

What? No, Leah. Please. I'm sorry. I
didn't mean to hurt anyone.

I just... People are finally starting to
watch my videos.

And the kids at school.

They want to be my friend.

See?

I won't post anything else about this
case. I promise. Just please don't take

phone.

You made all these videos?

Everyone wants to talk to me now.

But no holiday park until you find a way
to make this up to Mr. Richardson.

I will.

I promise.

I took the video down right away after
Mom told me what happened.

And I want to make it up to you.

What'd you have in mind?

Well, I'm pretty good at Christmas
decorations.

So, I wanted to make a window display
for you.

We think it will help draw customers to
your store.

All right.

You can use anything in the store for
the window.

Just ask me before you open anything.

Come on, then. It ain't going to
decorate itself.

What's this?

Turkey club, no mayo.

Packed myself lunch this morning.
Figured I'd pack some extra for you.

Don't make it a thing.

I didn't say anything.

Did you lose your appetite?

I, um... After Leia's video on
Richardson, I started looking at her

page.

I watched a few.

They're cute.

Cute?

They're heartbreaking.

And really, she was using it as therapy.
I mean, I... I feel like I failed her

as a mom, you know?

No, I mean, she lost her father. That's
not your fault.

Yeah, in a way, she lost her mom, too.

You know, and... She hasn't had a real
Christmas since, um...

It was resilient of her to make those
videos.

She took all those feelings and she did
something productive with them.

Oh, sorry.

I think she's a very creative girl.

Yeah, she is.

Thanks.

What does Christmas mean to you?

Christmas means our busiest time of the
year. We've got to bring in as many

customers as possible.

The money from the holidays is what
sustains us for most of the year.

it, I don't know if we'd make it.

My word, would you look at that.

Y 'all did this.

You brought customers back into my
store.

Thank you.

Love is always a gift worth giving.

Come on.

A home delivery service?

Yes, I'm Mrs. Hermit. Is that her last
name, Mrs. Zora?

Oh, sorry.

Anyone who brings me groceries does not
have to apologize or something like

that. Kids, this is my wife, Millie.

Millie, this is Leah and Zora.

Oh, I can't thank you kids enough.

No, no. What do you want?

What my husband needs is, how can we
repay you?

Oh, you don't need to pay us. We just
wanted to help.

Well, you have to let me give you
something, and I will not take no for an

answer.

I like apple cider.

Hey, yeah, yeah.

How about two apple ciders at the
Treatacular tonight?

Oh, kids, I'm sorry. I just don't think
Millie is quite up to something like

that. Now, Herman, we owe these kids,
and I intend to make good.

Two apple ciders tonight at the Holiday
Park?

Awesome. See you there.

Goodbye, girls.

We'll be right back.

It's okay if you like him.

What? Who?

Sheriff Tom.

I mean, it's okay with me if you want
to, like, date him.

What are you talking about?

It's okay to miss Dad.

Still be happy.

You can do both.

We're not, like, starting a new book
here.

We're starting a new chapter.

And new chapters mean new characters.

That's a very mature way of wording it,
Leia.

I'm just saying it's okay if you love
Tom.

What? Who said anything about love?

Come on, I'm 13.

Okay, here he comes. Just act natural,
okay? Okay.

And then I said rubber baby buggy
bumpers.

Wise decision, Mom.

Oh, hey, Tom. We didn't see you there.

Oh, good evening.

Hey. You're both looking lovely.

Thank you.

I'm going to go get some cider so you
two can talk.

So you two can talk?

I don't know when my daughter turned 40.

I thought I'd be the one to bring you
something this time.

Mold wine.

You're officially my favorite. I'm
leaving you everything in my will.

There's usually more people here on a
night like this.

Hey, listen, don't worry. We'll find the
guy.

By then it might be too late.

Question.

Answer.

Have you thought about what you want for
Christmas?

Yeah, come on, that's easy. Someone to
pay off my debilitating student loans.

But, you know, you can never have enough
money.

What about you?

Honestly, Annie? Mm -hmm.

I want you.

No.

And Leia.

Today.

Here. Become deputy full -time.

Look how you've handled this case
already.

We need you.

I need you.

Here.

As my deputy.

I don't know, Tom.

I mean, this case, I feel like it's just
spinning out and we haven't made much

progress. Just think about it, all
right?

Think about Leia growing up here.

It could be great.

I mean, we turned out okay.

The last thing I want is my daughter to
turn out like me.

I can't think of anything better.

Really?

I mean, at... Father Juckman.

He gets it.

Father Juckman, tell Deputy Willow how
much this town has done for her

More like how much your daughter has
done for our town.

I mean, have you seen the way she
transformed Doug's hardware?

That window display is really bringing
people in. I have never seen it so busy.

Well, she owed him after she posted that
video.

Okay, well, just look over there.

I mean, I have never seen Herman at
Holiday Park ever.

And I don't remember the last time
Millie made the journey into town. It's

months, maybe a year.

But your daughter and her friend Zora
convinced them to come here tonight

helping them deliver their groceries.

Are you sure you have the right kids?

Leah is making miracles happen in this
town, Deputy.

Wait,

did you see? Did you see Zora here
tonight?

Yeah, I think that I did.

What do you know about her dad?

Skyler said he's anti -Christmas.

Sort of keeps to himself.

Well, if he doesn't celebrate the
holiday.

And what was Zora really buying at that
mini -mart?

Folks?

Folks! May I have your attention,
please?

I want to thank you all for coming out
tonight to the Holiday Park Treatacular!

I know.

It may not be the turnout we were all
hoping for, but we can still make it a

night to remember.

Now is the time we take our annual
pilgrimage down to Town Hall to decorate

town tree.

Does everyone have their ornaments?

Yeah! Then away we go!

Oh my, the town tree is missing.

What are we going to do? That tree means
everything.

What? Who steals a tree?

There wasn't a camera outside the mini
-mart, but there was one inside. So, I

got the footage from the night Zora was
shopping for presents.

Is she stealing cat food?

She has Mrs. Crenshaw's cat.

Bingo. I wouldn't put cat food at the
top of the list for your average

shoplifter.

Plus, this is a good way for me to get
into the Anderson house and talk to her

dad, you know? See if he's involved in
any of this.

I am most certainly not involved in any
of this.

Just because we do not celebrate
Christmas, it doesn't mean that I would

from anyone.

I have nothing against the holidays.

It just doesn't align with my beliefs.
That's all.

Well, the school mentioned that you
complained about their Christmas

decorations. I did not complain.

The school overreacted when I picked up
Zora one day, and I happened to mention

that we do not decorate.

Oh, so the school board flipped out
over... Over nothing.

That sounds about right.

Sorry for my assumption there.

Do you mind if I talk to Zora for a
second?

Zora?

Zora?

Can I speak with Deputy Willis?

Zora, sweetie, I've got a quick
question, and I just... I need you to

honest answer.

She's in my closet.

Okay?

In my closet.

Who is in your closet?

Please, don't be mad. I found her.

Honest.

I'm sorry, Daddy.

I thought she was lost, so I just played
with her for a little bit. That's all.

But I was too scared to take her back
because she belongs to the witch.

Why didn't you tell me, honey?

I could have helped you.

I'm sorry about this.

My job comes with a long commute back
and forth, so I'm gone most of the day.

I should have paid more attention to
Zora.

No, listen, no apologies. I'm a single
parent, too. I get it.

Do the best we can.

And from what I can tell, Zora has a
very lovely home.

Thank you.

Now we have to make this right.

Zora, you're going to return the cat to
Mrs. Crenshaw.

Let her decide what the consequences
should be.

We can all go.

Together.

I'm not buying nothing, you sell it!

My baby!

You've come home!

Where was she?

Did you take her?

I saw her after school one day, and she
followed me home.

I fed her and bathed her.

She likes baths, and she likes to chase
strings.

When I saw the flyers, I should have
brought her to you, but I'm really

Tabitha is very clean and well fed.

She might even be heavier now.

You did an excellent job taking care of
Tabitha while she was on this little,

let's call it vacation.

I told Zora that her punishment is up to
you.

Oh, I see.

Well, you can come by every day after
school and help take care of Tabitha.

Maybe even some of the other kitties.

That is, if it's okay with your father.

Can I, Dad?

Of course, Zora.

Thank you, Mrs. Grishaw.

I'm sorry.

It's okay. She didn't mean... No, I
mean, I'm sorry.

Me. I apologized for my attitude when I
first got here.

You were right.

Someone had taken your cat.

I should have taken you more seriously.

Thank you for that.

Perhaps I was a bit hard on you as well.

When you've been alone so long like me,
sometimes you forget how to treat

people. You know, Father Justin says you
used to work for NASA.

No way. Really?

Can you come to my school and teach us
some, like, science stuff?

Oh, I don't think they'd want to hear
from me.

No, I'm sure the science club would love
to hear about your adventures.

I would love that.

I can talk to the science teacher and
I'll set something up.

Thank you so much. You have a good one.

Tabitha, say goodbye to your friends.

Class, please give a warm and friendly
Science Club welcome to our special

guest, Ms. Crenshaw.

Thank you, Ms. Posey. Some of you may
know me as the witch who lives outside

town. Well, you're right. I am a witch.

And I'll show you some magic.

Now, what you call magic, I call
physics.

Now let's see if we can make it snow
inside.

And I'm waiting for your call.

Great! You found a cat.

Was it stuck up a tree?

Is this all you're good for?

We need more time, Mayor Mulligan.

I can buy you until tonight, but then we
need some kind of information.

All right.

All right. Settle down.

Before our midnight mass tonight for
Christmas Eve, we will hold a town

at the Missouri Theater.

I promise you, our beloved law
enforcement will have your answers by

Thank you.

What do you expect us to do? Pull the
answers out of Santa's magic bag?

I don't know.

The mayor's just pushing us for an
answer.

The only time I ever saw a copy of the
corkboard like this is when they had no

leads and no idea what they were doing.

And now I'm one of them.

All right.

Let's focus, Annie.

What if Mayor Mulligan is behind it?

That's why she's pressing us to jump to
a conclusion, so she isn't considered a

suspect? Annie.

Oh, think about it. Give her a good
excuse to access the town budget, dig

the tax funds.

That doesn't make sense.

This is hurting tourism.

That is the opposite of what she wants.
Okay, well, then who is it, Tom?

Because you haven't suspected anyone so
far in this entire town.

That's because you've suspected everyone
for me. What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing. I don't want to get into it.
No, you know what? If I seem harsh, it's

because I had to be.

Because you're too close to these
people, Tom.

And you're too nice to see that someone
in your town is a thief.

You don't think I'm a real cop?

What? Come on. Tom, of course I do.

You took over this case the moment we
walked onto the scene. You didn't even

give me a chance. Because I knew you
couldn't handle it.

Tom, I'm just saying there's a
difference between crime in a small town

big city. It must be nice to always be
the smartest person in the room.

No, it's awful.

That's the burden I must bear.

This isn't funny, Annie.

The bottom line is you don't trust
anyone in this town. There's not much I

do about that.

But I thought at least you'd trust me.

I'm the one who has your back.

You should have mine.

Tom, I do. No, you don't. You just want
to move back to the city so you won't

have to let anyone get close to you.

So you never get hurt.

So you never lose anyone ever again.

But that is no way for a person to live.

And it's no way for your daughter to
live.

A solitary life like that, it changes a
person, Annie. Yeah, well, you know

what? It's not your problem anymore
because I got a job offer. So I consider

this my two -week notice.

What? I got a job offer.

I start in the new year, so you don't
have to worry about me ruining your

perfect little town anymore.

You know what?

I'll take your two weeks, and you can
work every minute of it.

Wait, what's that supposed to mean?

You can handle the meeting tonight on
your own.

It's how you like it.

Tom, come on. Where are you going?

If we were a team, I'd tell you.

My video is almost done.

I talked to Mayor Ruth. She said that I
could play it after the meeting tonight

before we all head to Mass.

She said it might lighten the mood.

Whatever that means.

Great, kiddo. Yeah.

Listen, Leah, I have some news.

What news?

I got that call.

The job in the city.

So we could start looking for houses
tomorrow.

And that could be our Christmas present
to each other. You know, shopping for

our forever home.

Why can't this be our forever home?

Come on, Leah. You know that was always
the plan. Your plan.

Not mine.

You never even asked me what I wanted. I
finally have friends here.

Real friends.

And not just kids at school, but all
over town.

Sweetheart, you can make new friends.

Come on, Leah. A week ago you were
saying the kids in school are butts and

stuff.

I like it here.

I don't want to start over somewhere
else.

I'm sorry, sweetheart.

It's a no.

We can discuss this tomorrow, okay? We
just... I've got to get to the town hall

meeting.

Okay,

we are still actively working on this
case, but these things take time.

It's not like we can throw darts at a
board of names and pick a perpetrator.

have had days to work on this.

Leo, what are you doing?

Don't judge them by tonight, Mom.
They're scared.

Yeah, I know, but can I say something?

Oh, my God. Oh,

so you're putting her in charge now?

No,

I got this.

Don't worry.

My name is Leah Willows.

When I first moved here, I didn't know
any of you.

And it was hard to judge...

But I've learned something since then.

Something that I think a lot of you have
forgotten about.

Christmas isn't about the lights, or the
tree, or any of that stuff.

And someone stealing them doesn't stop
Christmas.

Tomorrow morning, Christmas will still
be here.

So who cares about what we don't have?

Look at what we do have.

Right in front of us, all of the people
that we love.

My dad used to tell me that we all hold
the spirit of Christmas in our hearts

all year round.

It's just at Christmas time that we get
to let it all out.

Which is why I wanted to show you all
this.

Mayor?

What does Christmas mean to you?

Uh, Christmas means chaos.

The money from the holidays is what
sustains us for most of the year.

it, I don't know if we'd make it.

What's your favorite Christmas memory?

Last Christmas, my family got stuck in a
snowstorm, so they couldn't fly back,

which meant I was home alone.

Well, my students found out. They
stopped by throughout the day, and they

brought cards and candy and gifts.

They didn't want me to be alone on
Christmas.

The other night at Holiday Park, seeing
all the people enjoying the festivities

together under the night sky and
everything.

Oh, and your mother, she was watching
you with this spark in her eye.

I miss that spark.

One Christmas morning with my boys, they
were maybe five and seven, I think.

I got them each their first tool kit,
and they said, Look, Dad, we're like

Now they're going off to college.

Where's the time, Bill?

Christmas morning, a few years back, I
went to the local hospital to visit the

kids who were too sick to come home for
the holiday.

And as I'm walking down the hall, I
notice that every single room is filled

family. There was not a single kid left
alone.

When our girls were young, And my
husband Mike dressed up like Santa

Oh, the look on their faces.

Oh, the joy it brought them.

The last Christmas with your dad, he had
his diagnosis.

He knew it was on borrowed time, but he
insisted on doing everything the same.

All our usual traditions.

I just remember sitting with him at the
fireplace, watching him watch you open

your Christmas presents on Christmas
morning, and he had this.

Bark in his eye.

I thought, can I just make my first
answer what Christmas means to me?

Christmas is about family.

I had to sum up.

I'd say Christmas is all about family.

Family. Family.

Family.

Wonderful.

Thank you, Leah Willows. The entire town
is so very happy to have you and your

mother here.

Well, why don't we gather ourselves and
head down the road to church, shall we?

We have midnight mass beginning shortly.

That was marvelous. Just marvelous.

Take an air. Thank you.

That was so beautiful.

I'm so proud of you.

I know why you wanted to leave town,
Mom.

You like Tom, and you're worried about
what will happen if we stay here.

But moving forward doesn't mean we're
forgetting about Dad, you know?

Oh, my Leah.

You had to grow up so fast, and now
you're wiser than your mama.

I know you're sad.

I've been sad too.

But that's okay.

Because I know what that sadness is.

It's love.

Our love for Dad.

But just because you meet someone new
doesn't mean you're giving that love to

someone else.

You're sharing more of your love because
we all have so much to give.

And love is always a gift worth giving.

Thank you. I love you so much. I love
you too.

Let's head out. People are leaving and
stuff.

I can change and stuff. Yes, please.

It's back.

Everything came back. Yeah, but who did
it?

All of the missing items from town hall
have been returned to the church during

a confession.

Now, as you all know, everything spoken
during confession is privileged and

private. So you can't say a word. I
cannot.

But the person responsible wanted me to
express their sorrow for what they had

done and deeply apologize for causing
everyone such anxiety.

They promise it will never happen again,
and they beg you all for forgiveness.

Now, now, if you must blame someone, you
may blame me.

Had I been more present and reached out
to this person, none of this would have

happened. So I am responsible.

No. As mayor, I should have made sure
that everyone felt welcome in our

community. So you may as well say I did
it. Well, if you did it, mayor, I guess

that means that...

I did it, too.

No, I did it. I did it!

I did it. I did it! I did it!

Well, perhaps we all had a part in
making this happen.

But let's not allow that to ruin
Christmas. Everyone, run home and get

ornaments, and let's decorate this tree.

I'll be right back.

I think it's a real Christmas miracle.

Comment down below if you think so too.

Did you do it?

Is that why you had Leia make that
video?

Show everyone that they cared more about
their decorations than what really

mattered? Are you going to arrest me,
Deputy?

He didn't do it.

I did it.

I took the lights, the nativity scene,
the tree, everything.

I understand how you could yank down the
lights and pack up the nativity scene,

but the town tree?

There's no way. Did Father Justin help
you with it? Easy now, Annie.

My husband was the pillar of this
community.

And when he died, I felt abandoned by
this town.

I heard the rumors that people said
about me.

For years, I locked myself away because
I thought the people of this town were

cruel.

And when I thought somebody took my
Tabitha from me, it broke me.

I wanted to teach the people of this
town a lesson.

It's like this town barely seemed to
notice.

So she came back for the tree.

But how? We checked the DMV records. You
don't own a truck.

She does.

It's registered in her husband's name.

Okay, fine.

But the town tree?

By yourself?

How?

Physics, my dear.

You figured this all out?

After our, uh, conversation, I went to
Crenshaw's place and checked the barn.

Barn?

I just peeked inside.

You'd have found my secret.

The years of isolation took its toll on
me, Deputy Willows.

It made me bitter and angry at the
world.

But I was doing it to myself.

I locked myself in a prison of my own
making.

I didn't realize it until that sweet
child... brought my Tabitha back to me,

in your kind words, and going to the
school.

It made me see the error in my ways.

I confessed everything to Father Justin,
and he helped me bring everything here.

I hope seeing everything returned would
remind people to be forgiving.

Unfortunately, Father, that's not how
the law works.

Maybe it can.

The tree and the decorations are very
clean.

Clearly, they were well cared for.

Now, I'd say Mrs. Crenshaw did a fine
job of taking care of them while they

on this little, let's call it a
vacation.

This is the season, right?

Really that shocking that I can be nice?

Yeah, a little.

Ouch.

Sorry.

You sure this is how you want to handle
this?

Your case.

You cracked it.

All right.

Well, you heard her, folks.

Let's keep it between the people in this
room.

Okay?

Thank you so much.

My daughter recently told me that love
is always a gift worth giving.

I'm pretty sure she heard that from
someone in this room.

Where did all of these people come from?

I think it's Leah Willow's video.

Over 28 ,000 views in under an hour.

Well, what are we all waiting for? We've
got a tree to decorate. Come on down.

Evening, ladies.

Hey.

You asked me what I wanted for
Christmas, and I said you.

And I meant it.

Annie, we make a great team.

Yeah, we do.

All three of us.

Wait, what are you saying, Mom?

I'm saying this is the closest we're
getting to the city.

We made a lot of great memories there,
but we've got a lot of great memories on

the way here, too, starting this
Christmas.

Well, what are we waiting for? Go put it
on the tree.

There

it

is again.

That spark in your eye.

Yeah? Think I know what it is.

What? An eyelash? Some dirt, maybe?

Stop it.

Ouch. It's love.

Love?

Yeah.

Love.

Seems like a lifetime since I've been
gone, but I got some good

news.

I'm coming home, leaving on Thursday.

And if what they say is true, I'll be
spending Christmas Eve

with you.

Who needs sunshine?

Just let it snow.

We leave our footprint.

Every place we go, we can go skating

like a pair of Christmas fools.

When I spend my Christmas Eve, maybe I
won't ever leave after

spending Christmas Eve with you.

Christmas isn't just another holiday.

It's the time when all our dreams come
true Christmas Eve

is always just a day away When I close
my eyes and think of

holding you The fire is burning The
lights are

low They're playing white Christmas
Every place we go

Dancing to Crosby.

It's the thing we like to do when I
spend my Christmas Eve.

Maybe I won't ever leave after spending
Christmas Eve with you.

Christmas isn't just another holiday
It's the time when all

our dreams come true Christmas Eve is
always just

a day away When I close my eyes and
think of home and you

The fire is burning The lights are low

They're playing white Christmas On the
radio Holding

you tightly And I'm never letting go

When I spend my Christmas Eve Maybe I
won't ever leave

After spending Christmas Eve with you

Christmas

Eve with you

Christmas Eve with you.

Christmas Eve with you.

Oh, yeah.

Christmas Eve with you.
