you

Fantastic. Oh, good morning, Jess. I'll
take your thing.

Let the countdown to Christmas begin.

Drink? No, you know, I think I'm okay,
but I appreciate it.

Thank you.

Great sweater.

Oh. Oh, thanks. Is that alpaca?

Yeah, it is alpaca. Good eye.

It's kind of my thing.

Oh.

That's me.

Oh, that's you, huh?

Not the model, the sweater. I designed
it.

Oh.

Impressive. Looks cozy.

It's Sutton's first line of alpaca
Christmas sweaters.

Oh, okay.

Anyway, we sourced the wool from a
wonderful place upstate, Flannery Farm.

Flannery Farm.

You wouldn't have heard of them. They're
small time, but hopefully not for long.

Well, that's very admirable of you.

You know, putting a small time farm on
the map like that.

So you have a great look.

A little more rugged than a lot of the
guys we see.

I'm sorry, what?

You're a model, right? Here for the
casting?

A model?

No. No, no, no, no. I'm so sorry. I just
assumed because you're so... Mr.

Flannery. Yes.

I'm ready for you. Thank you.

Mr. Flannery.

Andrew Flannery.

Andrew Flannery of?

Flannery Farm.

Small time, but hopefully not for long.

This is very impressive.

Excuse me.

Nice one, Jen.

Fierce outfit, Christmas letter queen.

Thanks, Glenn.

I meant it. Excellent job on those
decorations.

Oh, thank you. Now all that's missing is
the snow.

No snow for me this year.

My Christmas will be Italian -style.
Piazza second night, panettone, pasta.

My whole family is going to Rome for
this Christmas reunion. I wouldn't miss

for the world.

Wow. I wish I had your life.

What are those?

I'm just the intern.

Taking flawed sweaters to the recycling.

What's the matter with them? These
aren't flawed.

Flawed.

Oh, no.

You can't see what's wrong with it? It's
a beautiful Christmas sweater.

And how does it feel, Jessica?

Like luxury alpaca wool.

It feels like joy.

Like being surrounded by your loved
ones, being full of eggnog and turkey

dinner. It feels like Christmas.

I know.

The yarn size is wrong. It's not the
same as the sample sweater from the mode

photo shoot.

Clearly, I looked into it, and the
mistake was on our end. We ordered the

thicker wool from Flannery Farm.

But it's still a beautiful sweater.

Why don't we just market it as a
different, more cozy Christmas sweater?

Jessica.

Is this from our menswear line or our
womenswear line?

Womenswear, Gwen.

Exactly.

A line that produces elegant...

Feminine clothing that the Sutton woman
may wear to her job as head curator at

that award -winning gallery on Mulberry.

Perhaps a date for Christmas with the
family.

Her sweaters, our sweaters, are made of
thinner yarn.

Maybe even lace weight. They're light.
They're draping.

Luxury. It may be a heavier yarn, but
it's still a high -end sweater.

It was a fun experiment, but we're going
back to cashmere.

What? I just told Mr. Flannery, and
obviously he was not happy. But his farm

simply cannot meet our demands.

I need a replacement immediately.

There are hundreds of these. That's a
terrible waste.

Welcome to the world of high fashion.

Donatella, I'll have to call you back.

Is the building on fire?

Christmas sweaters should be
sustainable.

When people wear my Christmas sweaters,
I want them to feel the spirit of

Christmas, including the love and care
that went into every detail.

I want to have a positive impact on the
world through what I create. That's why

I chose Flannery Farm to support local,
sustainable, and hardworking farmers.

Hardworking farmers that can't meet the
demands of a luxury brand.

The world is changing, Gwen, and I will
be on the right side of that change.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you need to keep up with the
times.

Keep up with the times?

There's a competition for emerging
designers. It's called Runway to

I know of it.

The winner gets a cash prize to create
their own line.

Their collection will be in every
Clemmingsons department store worldwide.

You are the top Christmas sweater
designer at the hottest label in New

City.

Are you willing to risk that?

This competition is mere weeks away.

When will you even find the time?

You're right.

I quit.

You quit your job?

Consulting your best friend first and
right before Christmas?

So, I guess you're coming in. For this
gossip? Uh, yes, I'm coming in.

Babe, what are you going to do for
money? This is New York. It doesn't pay

itself.

You can come work with me.

Oh, my gosh. Please come sell houses.

I'm not going to become a realtor, Dina.
I have a career that I'm very good at,

thank you very much. I just need a job
and opportunity.

And I may have found it.

It's called Burn Way to Christmas. It's
a fashion competition for new designers.

It'll put me in Clemington.

The Clemingtons?

Basically the sickest, most luxury
department store in all of Manhattan?

And Milan. And London. And Paris.

When do we start? How long do we have?

So, that is the thing.

I have to create and design a six -piece
collection.

And write a manifesto explaining why the
collection embodies the spirit of

Christmas, because the fashion show is
on December 24th. Of next year?

Of this year.

Jessica, that's been like less than six
weeks.

It'll be a challenge, yes, but nothing's
impossible, Dina. You know how I am

with a deadline.

But what about Christmas with your
family in Italy?

This isn't my dream, Dina. Ever since I
was a little girl, I've dreamed of

creating Jessica Hilliard Christmas the
label.

And you will.

If anyone can make this absolutely
impossible thing happen, it's my

talented, superstar best friend.

What can I do to help? Do you need a
design studio? I'll get you a design

studio. Actually, I need an alpaca
farmer.

Ooh, I don't rent those.

I happen to know one whose schedule just
freed up.

He owns Splannery Farm, that gorgeous
wool I sourced for that experimental

alpaca line that Gwenda's guy bought.

Mm -hmm.

If I want to meet this crazy deadline,
working with a farmer that does

everything on site is literally my only
option.

But, um, what's with the suitcase?

Uh, they're not answering my calls, but
Flannery Farm's only like two hours

away.

That's my girl.

Oh, Rath.

I gotta go. Sorry, babe. Um, the
property pals are launching their

wine tonight. Ooh!

If this is your dream, you do whatever
it takes to make it happen.

Hi, Andrew.

This is Jess Hilliard calling again.

You guys going to help me win the
competition?

I'll take that at the end.

Oh, that looks like a nice carrot. I'll
take

it. Thank you very much. No, carrots are
for reindeers. This reindeer likes

carrots. If you don't give it to me, I'm
going to throw snow instead.

Hi there.

Hi.

I'm Jess. What's your name? I'm Georgia.
Hey, Georgia, honey. Why don't you go

on and grab a snack? I'll be in in a
second, okay?

Just go in and get a snack. I'll be in
in a second.

I don't think I ever officially
introduced myself.

I'm Jess Hilliard.

I remember you.

I left you a few voicemails. I mentioned
a competition.

Yeah, it's a shame you came all the way
out here before I had a chance to call

you back.

I'm not interested.

Can I just have five minutes of your
time?

Look, I think it's great that you quit
Sutton, but I just don't think this

be a good partnership.

I'm sorry for what happened.

Really, it's why I quit.

They broke our entire contract because
we're not big enough to replace the

orders overnight.

We were counting on that business.

I had to lay off all my staff right
before Christmas.

I didn't know that.

Now you know.

What if I could help?

What's this?

A little gift.

You should really start decorating.
Christmas will be here before you know

Well, I love Christmas as much as the
next guy, but I was a little bit busy

supplying fleece for hundreds of
sweaters that are in the trash now.

I'm going to create a line of Christmas
sweaters that is sustainable and high

fashion and imbued with the spirit of
Christmas, and I'd like to use your

Fleece.

Wool comes from sheep.

Oh, in fashion we just call it wool.

Wouldn't be the first time fashion got
it wrong. Fine, fleece.

Jessica. Jeff.

Jeff, there have been many before you
who come here claiming to be different

than the others, and before I know it,
they are blending our fleece with

synthetic and slapping a big sustainable
sticker on the even bigger price tag.

Or breaking a contract, whenever it
suits them, with zero regard for what

might mean to small -time guys like us.

So I'm sorry.

I'm not going to compromise my family's
values. And honestly, I just don't trust

you. You can trust me. Let me prove it
to you.

This is cedar. The alpacas can't eat it.
It's toxic.

Oh, I... I didn't realize.

I wish you the best of luck, Jess.

Merry Christmas.

For you.

Gorgeous. Isn't it?

It really is.

I knit it myself.

You did?

Mm -hmm.

My family's been harvesting, spinning,
and dyeing the fleece since 1955.

Your family?

Christine Flannery.

Jess Hilliard, so... That would make
Andrew your... His little brother.

You know him?

I just came from the farm.

We were going to collaborate on
something, but it looks like that's not

happen.

Yeah, it's a real shame.

That farm's our family legacy, and it
just breaks my heart.

What do you mean?

He didn't tell you.

Andrew put the farm up for sale.

Oh, no. Yeah.

It means a lot to our community. We've
employed local craftsmen for over 60

years. But we're trying to look on the
bright side.

Change can be good.

Of course.

After our parents retired, Andrew took
it over with his wife, Emily.

But unfortunately, she passed away a
couple of years ago.

I'm so sorry.

He's handling it.

He was doing the best he could raising
his sweet Georgia.

Keeping the farm afloat.

I'll take it. Wonderful.

Nanaimo. Does that mean this yarn came
from this particular alpaca? That's

right.

Nanaimo's fleece makes the softest yarn.

That's so cute.

I'll take this, too.

Fabulous.

Christine, what if I told you there's a
chance I could help save Flannery Farm?

What do you mean?

I'm entering a competition that offers a
huge cash prize.

If you could help me convince Andrew to
take a chance on me, I promise I would

split the prize with him and I can
guarantee enough orders to keep the farm

going.

That's a pretty big promise.

The winner gets a contract with
Clemington's worldwide.

I'm in.

Keeping the farm and the family would
mean the world to me. What can I do to

help?

I work for a company that broke Andrew's
trust, and now that I'm on my own, I

really need to get it back.

Andrew's big on trust, and he can be
pretty set in his ways.

I don't think he believes I genuinely
want to help.

And he's not big on accepting help from
others.

I offered to stop by with Christmas
decorations just yesterday, and he shut

down. And he's out all day today.

I'd have a mind to drive over there and
put them up myself.

Yeah, I brought him this gorgeous
Christmas wreath, and he just gave it

me.

He does the best he can for Georgia, but
between you and me, I don't think

Christmas has felt the same at the farm
since Emily passed.

Did you say he's out all day?

Mm.

It's beautiful.

Jess, you came back.

I did.

You did?

Christine?

I believe the words you're looking for
are thank you.

Thank you?

But what is all this? It's Christmas.

And Christmas is about helping one
another out when they're in need.

Hey, Georgia, help your aunt out with
these decorations, will you? Okay.

Christine told me you have to sell the
farm.

Uh -huh, she did.

Yeah, I actually just got an offer on
it. A good one, too.

Before you accept that, can you please
just hear me out?

Okay. It's clear this place means a lot
to your community, to the legacy of your

family, to you.

I'm asking you to give it one last
chance.

If we win this competition, I promise I
will split the prize money with you, and

I can guarantee enough orders to keep
the farm running.

I can't make a decision.

And you'll get to spend this Christmas
and many more Christmases here on your

beloved farm.

You don't give up, do you?

I really, really don't.

Look, I can't even afford to hire my
farm hands back.

That's where I step in.

Excuse me. I know I don't exactly scream
old McDonald, but I work hard.

I will learn. We only need enough fleas
for me to create six pieces for the

competition. Jess, I don't think you
understand.

This is very grueling work to undertake.
I mean, there's things I don't even

have time to show you how to do. Great.

While you do those, I can focus on
bringing a little Christmas joy to

Farm. Christmas joy?

What do you say, Mr. Flannery?

Please, Dad?

What do you have to lose, baby brother?

Let me prove myself.

Just give me a tiny window to do that,
and I will bring my A -game.

Okay, look, I have until Friday to
accept the offer on the firm, so you

that long to show me that this could
actually work.

100 % sustainable.

Firm -raised, local fleece, no blends.

Can you promise me that?

No blends.

I promise.

Deal. You won't regret this. Okay.

Does anyone know of a hotel around here?

Why doesn't she stay in the guest house?

Oh, that's okay.

Nonsense.

Hey, Georgia, why don't you show Jess
around?

Okay.

Follow me, Jess.

Thanks for decorating our house. Of
course.

Are you just going to stand there or are
you going to help me with these

planters?

How did you get involved with this?

I always find a way.

Yeah, you always find a way.

You deserve a second chance. And I know
you don't want to leave the farm,

Andrew. I have a good feeling about
Jess. She's really determined.

You mean stubborn.

I take fun in that one.

Good morning.

Morning.

Wow.

Georgia, did you make these?

I did.

It's a beautiful Christmas tree.

Where are the rest of the decorations?

Sorry, Georgia, honey. I told you I'd
bring them from the attic.

I must have forgotten.

That's okay, Daddy.

We have lots of time for Christmas.

That's very true.

And in the meantime, some candy cane for
you.

Daddy, can I?

Honey. It's 7 a .m. Please, Dad.

It's Christmas.

One.

Okay, just one because it's Christmas.

Thank you, Daddy. Thank you, Jess. Yeah.

Thank you, Jess.

You want some porridge?

Oh, yes, please.

There you go.

Thank you.

Welcome.

Why aren't you with your mom and dad?

Uh, because I want to be here on the
farm helping you guys.

It's okay, though. There's always next
year.

You deserve a candy cane.

So, when does work start?

Two hours ago.

You're not going to work in that outfit,
are you?

You're good.

Ah, much, much better.

I'm not convinced.

Well, you will be once you wrestle an
alpaca.

Pardon me?

Now, the trick is you got to outsmart
the little fellas.

I know they look cute.

They can be feisty.

Sometimes they kick.

Sometimes they spit.

Spit? Yeah.

Fortunately for us, they like food.

Don't you, girls?

See that?

Hold that like that, okay?

There you go.

They can be really quite lovely.

Just got to gain their trust.

Come on.

You're good. You're good. You're good.
You're good. Come on. I got more. Come

on. Come on, girl. There you go.

Good girl. Good girl. Good girl.

Yeah, that's good. Yeah. Okay. Yeah,
just close it up. You're good. Come on.

You're good. All right.

Come on.

All right.

You want to give it a try?

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, okay, okay.

Something wrong with that one.

All right.

Maybe we should just go share buttons
first, huh?

You just hold that for one sec. I'm
going to lock up.

The best part of the fleece is called
the blanket, and it comes from the

the trunk of the animal. Come on, old
girl.

So, how many of these guys do we have to
shear?

Well, you want six sweaters?

Well, we already have some fleece, so
we'll start with Buttons here, because

she's got access to the heated barn.
Normally, the shearing takes place in

warmer months.

You're a good girl. Oh, here.

Thank you for your fleece, Buttons.

Now, very important, because this could
be dangerous for you and the alpaca.

You need to hold her steady. I don't
want to hurt her with the clippers,

So, here's what you do.

Take your hand. Here, right here. Right
where the lead is. Feel that? Then you

want to take your other hand, put it on
the back of her head.

Very, very gentle.

And just don't let her move.

Yeah, sure.

There you go, button.

Good girl.

What happened? Are you okay?

Spit at me.

Oh, it's gross.

Right.

Look, you know, Jess, I'm happy to do
this. I'm used to it.

And those guys out there really need
some water in their trough.

Done. You want water in the trough? I'll
show you water in the trough.

Where's the hose?

Well, the hose is out there.

Excellent. But the hose is frozen, so
you've got to go to the other side of

barn to get the water. Ten buckets will
do it, and I'll keep you busy for a

little while.

Ten?

Or, you know, I can do it. It just means
you're not going to get the fleece as

quickly as you want it. No, I can do it.
I came to help. I should have an

appreciation of what goes into my
products, shouldn't I?

Bucket number 10.

What are you doing?

You're dirtying all the water. You're
supposed to drink it in a big...

Get out of here.

Oh, you spilled the water.

I just fell over.

Nine

buckets

of water to go.

Bucket numbered.

Georgia?

Do you know if a ragu has eggs in it?

I'm pretty sure it doesn't.

Hey, how about you get down from there
and I'll help you.

I wanted to surprise my dad with dinner.

Where is your dad?

I found a hole in one of the fences.

He's still working?

It's late.

He used to have help for these sorts of
things, but now it's just us.

But it's okay. I can help too.

Even if you won't like let me do the
hard stuff.

I tell you what.

Why don't you help me make a shepherd's
pie? I make it every year for Christmas.

It's the most cozy, perfect dinner.

You know how to cook?

I love to cook, but there is no chef
without her sous chef.

That's me.

Okay.

First step, sous chef Georgia, is to
grab me as many potatoes as possible.

Okay.

Hey, Georgia.

What's the name of that little white
alpaca?

Oh, that's Florence.

Huh. Well, Florence doesn't like me very
much.

Then maybe you should try my super
secret trick.

You have a trick? I will try anything.

It's baby carrots.

Alpacas love carrots.

Hmm.

Well, what do we have here?

Welcome to Shea, Jess, and Georgia.

May I take your coat, sir?

Yes.

Thank you, maitre d'.

Sous -chef Georgia.

My apologies, Sous -chef Georgia.

Hands up.

Fancy.

Hey.

Morning.

Alpacas are fed, water bowls are full,
stalls are clean.

That's... Wow.

Thank you.

Of course. Now, let's get to work.
You're, um, three minutes late.

Okay, well, maybe we should get a start
on dyeing the fleece.

Perfect. Okay.

Carrots are our little secret. Right,
guys?

Okay.

Okay, at Flannery, we've always used a
very special dye. It's a mix of acid and

fiber reactive dyes, which is perfect
for alpaca because it doesn't fade even

when it's washed in extremely high heat.
Look.

I may not be an expert alpaca herder,
but this is my arena. This is where I

shine.

Right, but have you dyed fleece before?

No, not fleece exactly, but I've been
around many. A mixing of colors for my

Christmas sweaters at Sutton.

Okay. As a matter of fact, I dyed some
fleece this morning.

What time did you get up?

Early. Early. Yeah, I bet.

I wanted to make a bit of a mauveine.

You mean mauve.

No, uh, Mauveen, it's a bit of blue, a
splash of red, a splash of white. It

should be ready now.

Jess, these dyes can be very finicky,
and it takes some getting used to.

Andrew, dyes are dyes.

Okay, well... Well, if that's Mauveen,
Mauveen must be French for

pretty growth.

Look, why don't we just start from the
very beginning of this process?

Okay. Mm -hmm.

This way.

Now, there's a real art to this, you
know.

I learned it from my mom. She learned it
from my grandmother.

Here's what you need to know to start.
This is the treadle. Get your foot here.

This gets the wheel spinning. Watch.

See that?

Mm -hmm.

This is the bobbin. This is the mother
of all.

Mother of all. It's a funny name.

Right. So I've already got a starter
thread here for you So what you're gonna

is take some of the roving which is the
fleece with your left hand You'll pin it

right here and eventually you're gonna
feed it through with your right hand But

you're gonna want to fan it back here
kind of make a y -shape That's all about

the wheel and getting the rhythm Okay,
so I use the treadle to get the wheel

going right hand feed third roving left
hand draws back Got it. You wanna give

it a try? Yeah. Okay.

Here you go.

Yeah,

you just We'll just find the rhythm.
Okay.

Yeah, there you go.

Ooh. There you go. Foot is on the
treadle. You really want to find the

Yeah, no, I'm doing the pedal, beating
the roving. Uh -huh.

Nothing to it. Just not so fast, Jeff.

Okay. Watch out!

Oh, my gosh.

Please tell me this is an easy fix.

Yeah, these parts are not easy to
replace.

I'll see if I can fix this, okay?

I'm so sorry.

What are you getting up to?

Not much.

I thought you were working on your
snowman.

Snowwoman. All done.

Does that mean you're free?

I think I can make some room in my
schedule.

I need your help with something.

Let's go.

Nice shot.

Thanks.

What do you think?

It's the most beautiful Christmas tree
ever.

What's your dad cooking over there?

Mmm.

What?

Lasagna. It's the thank you dinner for
two of the hardest working ladies I

Include you, Jess.

I'm so sorry I broke your spinning
wheel, Andrew.

Don't even worry about it. I'll get that
tomorrow, okay?

So, what's all this for then?

For everything.

Mmm. This lasagna's delicious.

It looks.

Incredible.

Georgia, honey, don't you have your big
Christmas pageant coming up at school

soon?

I didn't see a flyer in your bag or
anything like that.

No.

You want me to call the school and find
out what's going on?

No!

Something's up.

She, uh... She hasn't been the same
since Emily passed.

I thought maybe it was just part of the
process and things would get easier for

her with time.

This past month, things have been
different.

Little explosions like that.

I just, um... I want to get better at
this, you know? I just...

I just want to be a good dad.

I don't know.

Would you let me speak with her?

I can tell Christmas means a lot to you.

It means a lot to me, too.

Can I tell you something?

I miss my family so, so much.

And I wish we could all be together for
it.

It's okay to miss your mom, Georgia.

Your dad misses her too very much, and I
know he's doing everything he can to

make this Christmas extra special for
you. He can't.

Why's that?

Every year, there's a special Christmas
pageant at school.

And every year, my mom would make me a
costume.

So fun.

But last year, my dad forgot, and I went
with no costume.

Georgia, that must have been really hard
for you.

Well, I'm an expert at all things
Christmas fashion.

What would you think about me making
your costume this year?

Like, a special costume?

The most special.

I think there's some dinner waiting for
you.

I'm not very hungry.

I'm kind of sleepy, actually.

It is nice.

I'd like my dad to read me a bedtime
story.

I'm sure he'd love that.

What you got going on here?

Oh, it's some cheap wool I bought from
Christine's shop.

I'm making Christmas blankets for the
alpacas in exchange for all the

fleece they're giving us. Well, I think
the alpacas will appreciate that so

much. Oh, I forgot to tell you.
Christine agreed to help me knit my

sweaters. She has a lifesaver.

Yeah, that Christine.

She's something else.

She's the best knitter in the lore, you
know, so you're in good hands.

Tomorrow morning, we'll spin enough yarn
to get you started on your sweaters.

Thanks, Andrew.

No problem.

Why do you want to keep the farm, aside
from it being in your family for a

decade?

I love what I do, you know?

I love working with my hands to create a
product that is such high quality.

You know, that it might bring
satisfaction or happiness to someone.

What about you?

What do you want?

In work?

Yeah.

I started making Christmas sweaters
because I love how the holidays make

feel. It's the most magical time of the
year.

But I now realize if I want my sweaters
to be authentic, they have to embrace

the same qualities of Christmas.

Celebrating community, spreading joy.

I have to build a business that gives
instead of takes away. I've been living

life with blinders on.

Come on. You're too hard on yourself.

I should be.

I'm terrified I'll miss out on this
opportunity and I'll never make a

in the world.

Well, I think you're already making a
difference with what you're doing.

Look at that.

The picture of holiday cheer.

I'll tell you something else, though.

Something that's really been keeping me
going the past few months.

I was thinking about this guy over
Flannery Farms on Christmas morning.

Oh, Jess, you've got to see it. It's
just the most beautiful blue.

Deep and endless and clear.

And it's the thing I'll miss the most
if, uh...

George and I have to leave here.

Sounds magical.

So you told me all about work, but what
do you want from life?

I want to fall in love.

Eventually,

I may want a family of my own.

It's hard to imagine that when
everything I have has to go into my

Do you hope to fall in love again?

Maybe.

Yeah, I do.

I should hit the hay.

Night, Jess.

Get back to your, uh... Thanks. I got
work to do.

I've been thinking about this all wrong.

Okay. What do you mean?

Well... This line is supposed to
encompass the joy of Christmas, right?

So, naturally, my mind went to the stark
white of a fresh snowfall, the joyful

red on Santa's coat, the deep green of a
Christmas tree.

But after hearing your story, I want you
to help me recreate Flannery Blue.

The color of the sky on Christmas
morning, it just sounds so perfect.

Okay, yeah, I'd love to.

Take a seat.

Okay.

Close your eyes. I'm not closing my
eyes. Just trust me.

It's Christmas morning.

You wake up cozy in your bed and you
feel the light on your skin.

The house is quiet.

Everyone else is asleep.

So you sneak downstairs.

You put on your winter boots, your coat
and your hat and you step outside.

The cold hits you. It's fresh and it
wakes you up.

Your heart is full of love and you're at
peace.

You look up at the big open sky above
you.

What do you see?

It's bright blue, but deep at the same
time.

It's like... It's like every shade of
blue exists within it.

And there's other colors, too.

Gold.

Pink.

I don't know. It's just beautiful.

I'm probably not doing a very good job
describing it.

Open your eyes.

Am I close?

Yeah, you nailed it.

And you know what?

It's all much better than the whole
thing.

Okay. All right.

Oh, hey.

Gingerbread cookies?

Did you make these?

Where did you find the time?

I needed a mental break and I had a
craving.

Who are these fellas?

Well, I was hoping you'd help me light
them up.

Yeah? Sure.

You just got to start by untangling
these.

Wow. Oh, I'm sorry. Is this too much
work for you? I'll just put them away.

the cookies.

Okay.

These are good. Do you want to trade?

No.

It's tangled there, too. Okay.

Still not enough light.

Well, you didn't get them all untangled.

Something I have to tell you.

I know I said I was going to wait till
Friday, but I made my decision.

You have?

Yeah.

I'm declining the offer on the firm.

You're a hard worker, Jess.

It's great having you here.

I believe in you.

Even though you broke my spinning wheel.

I believe in you, too.

Maybe we should go inside and I'll start
dinner.

Sure. Okay. Thank you.

What's this?

It's a mannequin thingy.

Christine let me take one from the shop.

I thought it would help when you're
putting your sweaters together.

It will.

Thank you.

I like that.

Oh, while I have you here, can I get
your opinion on some of my designs?

You want my opinion on your designs?

Of course I do. I only have two weeks to
get all this done. I could use all the

help I can get.

Okay.

The first one here is cute and simple.
It's giving the week before Christmas,

and the girls have snuck off for a
holiday weekend away.

We're talking apres -ski, winter
wonderland, cozy walk -five sweater.

Right.

What? It's just very specific.

Just wait.

Oh, I like it. Thank you.

This is the I'm off to see the tree
lighting at Rockefeller Center, and I

know my ex will be there with his new
girlfriend, so I have to look both cute

and effortless and like I'm absolutely
thriving, which I am.

Sweater. I have been there. So I'll save
you one on your side.

What else you got?

I love this one.

This is the It's My Office Christmas
Party, but after making enough small

I sneak off because my boyfriend got his
impossible dinner reservations at Chez

Bertrand, and I've been dying to try the
Rescargo sweater.

And it's, um...

A hypothetical boyfriend?

It is.

Oh.

Um, these are amazing, Jess. You're
really good at what you do.

What else you got?

Are you sure?

We could be here all day.

It's fine by me.

Snowflakes fall, an angel in the snow.

Your tide calls through the white winter
glow.

You don't know how happy I would be if
you would just spend Christmas

with me.

Together we could build a happy home.

Without you I feel all alone.

Everything would be happiness and glee
if you would just spend this

Christmas with me.

I just finished my fourth sweater.

Oh, no, babe. You only have, like, four
days left.

Thank you, Dina. I'm keeping track.
Believe me.

Four out of six is good. Like, really
good.

Especially now that Christine is helping
with all the knitting. That's

fantastic.

Of course. I couldn't have done it
without Andrew and little Georgia

on these past few weeks. I'm so happy
it's working out for you, babe.

I'm actually getting kind of sad I'm
going to be leaving soon.

I bet.

Sounds like you're getting pretty cozy
up there.

Dina? It's a professional relationship,
that's all. I'm just saying, stay open.

You never know where love will pop up.

Remember Zoltan?

I met him at a gas station and that
lasted several months.

There's nothing to stay open to. I leave
in a week.

Besides, falling for someone who lives
on a farm is not part of the plan.

So what is the plan exactly?

The plan is to become a world -renowned,
sustainable luxury fashion designer.

Work first, love when I can't.

How romantic.

I gotta go. Love you.

You're well water plants and I miss you.
Stay open.

Georgia!

I'm gonna get you.

Bring it on.

You're gonna regret that.

Got ya.

Can we look now?

Go for it.

Wow.

Jeff, these are beautiful.

What do you think, Mr.

Flannery?

Well, I think you have truly outdone
yourself, Ms. Hilliard.

Well, I couldn't have done it without
the best alpaca farmer in the country.

right.

And what do you think of the blue?

Just like Christmas morning?

Yeah, I'd say so.

So glad.

So... The only thing left to do for the
competition is to take photos of the

collection. I was thinking I could model
them, but I was hoping you could play

photographer for the day.

You trust an alpaca farmer to be a
photographer?

I do.

Well, I'd love to then.

And I just have one tiny other favor to
ask of you.

Okay.

What? Nothing. I told you you'd make a
good model.

I feel ridiculous.

You don't look it.

It's pretty comfortable.

Oh, really? You'll be shocked to learn
it's made with 100 % sustainable alpaca

fleece.

Alpaca, huh?

You know, I could have sworn it was
cashmere.

Alpaca is the new cashmere, and guess
what? It's local, too.

Some farmer has this incredible farm.
You've got to see it.

Thanks for doing this.

You owe me.

I do.

Let's win ourselves a competition.

Okay. I'll go first.

I will show you how it's done. Yeah,
good idea.

So we have a chance at winning.

Okay.

How does it look?

It's good, maybe.

A little forced.

Oh, he's a director now.

Just maybe, I don't know, look in the
distance like you see Santa.

Yeah, I'll try that. Okay. I'll try that
for sure.

Um, maybe Santa's not that far.

Maybe you're just really happy to see
Santa.

Yeah, it's good. Let me see.

Oh, Andrew, I actually really like that.

Uh -huh.

Now let's see if your modeling skills
are just as good.

Okay, we're going to need to loosen up.

Why are we even here? What do you mean?

You're too stiff. You have to shake like
this.

You want me to do that? Can you show me
one more time? Yeah, no problem. Can you

do it? No way I'm doing that. Why not?
Because it's silly. Is Rudolph the Red

-Nosed Reindeer afraid of being silly?

That's not fair, and you know it. That
was for George. It was different.

And this is for the farm.

Bigger, please.

Bigger.

Bigger. There you go.

That's all you're getting. Now you're
nice and loose.

Give me a smile.

Hubba hubba. Model alert. I'm leaving.

I'm serious.

Look at this.

I look good. All right. Don't let it get
to your head. We're just getting

started.

Okay.

What are we doing now exactly?

Just his and hers, the two of us
together. It's the look how cute you and

boyfriend can look on Christmas morning
shots.

Not the weird bit.

Yeah, I got it. Can I help?

You can. Have a seat, please.

Okay.

Perfect. And now I'll set the timer and
come join you.

Okay.

When does it start?

But I wasn't even ready.

It's okay. Just pose for the next one.

Pass me that present and pretend to give
it to me.

Okay.

What now?

Oh, maybe I could put my arm around your
shoulder like I'm keeping you warm next

to the fire. Great idea.

Put my head on your shoulder.

Okay.

Yeah, that worked.

That was not 10 seconds.

Just keep switching it up. Switch it up.
I am switching it up. What are you

doing? I'm switching it up. I'm
switching it up. You're not switching it

Here, you give me the presser.

I'm afraid of it. Look at me.

Let's see what this does. Thank you.

It's empty.

Very generous. Very photogenic.

Don't use any of these.

These are pretty good.

Well, it's because you have a
professional model here.

Okay, I told you exactly what to do.

Right. It took a lot of work, but, yeah,
you look good.

It wasn't that much. Okay, moving on.

That's my favorite.

Well, I look good in all of these.

Well?

Submission complete.

Andrew, we did it.

You did it, Seth.

Should we celebrate with some cake?

The only way I like to celebrate.

I can't believe I'm sending this off to
New York tomorrow.

I can't.

Mmm.

Mmm.

You know, I gotta say, and this is not
just because I made it.

This is really bad.

So bad.

I'm so sorry.

Very dry.

Do you have any of those gingerbread
cookies left?

I think so.

Hey, these new pictures have gotten the
labels. They're cute.

Oh, hey.

Hey, how did it go?

The package will be in New York City by
tomorrow afternoon.

Just in time for the deadline.

Yay!

Get in here, Dad.

Okay.

Way to go, Jess.

Really, you must be so proud.

Well, I couldn't have done it without my
two favorite helpers.

But does this mean I have to go home
now?

Well, sweetie, you know, Jess... I want
you to go.

Actually...

I still have one more job to do. The
most important, most special job. That's

why I wanted to meet you here.

What?

You don't think I forgot all about your
Christmas pageant, do you?

And so, if it's okay with your dad, I
thought I could hang back a little

while I make the costume.

Besides, I don't have anywhere else to
be until the jury makes their decision.

Daddy?

Um... I think we'd be very lucky to have
Jess stay a little longer.

Thank you, Jess. You're so welcome.

Hey, Georgia.

See those beautiful pieces of fabric
over there?

Mm -hmm.

Choose your favorite one. Okay.

Hey, Jess.

Christine. Hi.

Thank you so much for all your help. It
was my pleasure.

What brings you in here?

I'm going to be making Georgia her
Christmas pageant costume this year.

How sweet.

Jess, can you help me decide?

There's so many.

Of course I can.

You're in town if you took the firm off
the market.

Yeah, sorry, I meant to tell you. We've
just been really busy, you know?

I bet, yeah.

What about the green?

You two seem to work well together.

Christine.

I'm just saying.

You deserve to find love again, Andrew.

And any woman would be lucky to have my
baby brother.

More than all.

What's happening here?

Are you going soft on me?

Hmm.

Take it or leave it, but that woman?

Yeah.

He's one in a million.

Dad, come up with truth.

Okay, hon.

Are we a little impatient this morning,
Mr. Flannery?

We are excited and, yeah, maybe a little
bit late for school.

Can't rush fashion.

That's not what you said when you first
got here.

Touché.

Ladies and gentlemen.

What is happening? What are you talking
about? Just go with it.

Okay.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce
you to the one, the only, Georgia

Flannery.

Wow, amazing. I love it.

Honey, you look so good.

Thank you. I'm Santa's magical alpaca.

Yeah, you are. I love it.

It's amazing.

I do, too.

Thank you, Jess.

Thank you for letting me do it. I had so
much fun.

You truly are the most special girl.

We, uh, gotta get to school, kiddo.

Truck's warmed up for you. Go on out
there and I'll be there in a sec.

Jess, I don't know what to say.

I don't say anything.

It means more than you know.

I'm just not very good at expressing
myself.

You're better than you think.

She would be so proud of you, too.

Andrew, truly.

You really are the most incredible
father, and I know how hard this is

this all on your own, but you're doing
it.

You're giving her an incredible life,
and no matter what happens with the

competition, no matter where you end up,
you'll continue to surround

her with love.

That's all that matters.

Um, I gotta get her to school.

Um, maybe when I get back.

You'd like to go for a walk with me?

I'd love that.

Okay, good.

Go. I'll be here.

All right, I'll see you when I get back.

Sounds like a plan.

All right.

Hello, Jeff speaking.

Jessica Hilliard.

Yes? This is Beverly Clemington calling.
How are you?

I'm well, thank you. How are you?

Fabulous. I wanted to be the first to
congratulate you on being the winner of

this year's Runway to Christmas
competition.

Congratulations.

I won?

You want me to repeat that?

I won.

I really won.

Yes. You really won.

You're an incredible designer with a
very special vision.

Thank you.

Mr. Clemington, this, you, I mean, I'm
sorry I'm speechless.

Well, then, allow me to do the talking.

Your runway show is in just ten days, so
you get yourself ready.

to introduce your line to some of the
most influential people in New York

And we'll be sending you your cash prize
in the mail, so you can be expecting

that any day now.

Get ready, Miss Hilliard.

Your life is about to change.

Thank you.

Thank you. You have no idea how much
this means to me.

Oh, and one other thing, Jessica.

We have to make a small adjustment to
your line before we start carrying it at

Clamington's.

An adjustment?

All right, hon.

Have a great day at school, and I'll see
you this afternoon for your pageant.

See you.

See you.

Uh, Daddy? Yeah?

There's something really special about
Jess.

You think so, huh?

Yeah.

What do you find so special about her?

A lot of things.

How much she loves Christmas and how
nice she is.

Well, I would say I agree with all those
things.

But the thing I like most is how when
she's around, you're happier.

Georgia, honey, I'm sorry if I have
been... Things have just... That's okay.

It just makes me happy.

Like you used to be when I was smaller.

When you were happy because Mom's still
here.

I love you, Daddy.

I love you more.

I think you should tell Jess that she
makes you happy.

She's been so busy, she may not have
even noticed.

When did you become such a little adult?

I'm still a kid.

Just a smart one.

Yeah, you sure are.

All right, go on.

Thanks, see you later.

I'll tell you something.

We won.

What? We won. We did it. I just got off
the phone with Beverly Clemington

himself.

Andrew, we saved your farm.

Oh, my God.

I can't believe it. We really did it.

There's just, um... There's just one.

small thing what is it please don't be
mad just um just let me get it all out i

have a plan okay so in order for them to
carry my line in clemington

internationally because of the size of
the order and it's big like really big

like you can hire your staff back and
more even you can just just say it

they're gonna need to blend your fleece
with something else

cost -efficient, more readily available.

And they'll be dyeing and spinning the
fleece internationally at one of their

factories. You have got to be kidding
me.

This is way too big of an order. We
don't have the means of doing this

ourselves. We'll hire people.

We're talking big time here.

Andrew, thousands of sweaters.

So tell them to make an exclusive line,
less pieces, better quality, local,

sustainable alpaca fleece.

Jess, we had a deal.

So you lied.

I didn't lie, Andrew.

Yeah, you did. You lied.

This isn't ideal for me either. I think
I was naive. I thought I could change

the world of fashion overnight, but it
doesn't work like that.

Look, I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

I just need to get in.

Once I'm in, I can start making real
change from the inside. I will.

I promise you.

Yeah, you made me a promise before.

Look where we ended up.

It's just a thing as I thought you were
different.

I am.

No, you're not.

You're not.

Why are you so upset?

I'll be getting that check any day now.
You'll have plenty of money to hire

staff back and keep this farm alive.
I'll still need you.

I still only want to make this with
flannery fleece. Yeah, but you can't

you're going to blend it with who knows
what.

I don't want your money, Jess.

It was never about that.

It isn't about saving the farm?

About employing your community, allowing
Georgia to stay in the home she loves

so much?

I do what I do because it matters.

I want my work to matter.

Do you understand?

And I don't want my daughter to think
money can buy happiness.

So you just want me to give up on my
dreams, on this opportunity?

I don't want you to do anything you
don't want to do.

But I gotta sleep at night.

You can keep the money, Jeff.

I'm selling this place.

There you go. There you go.

I just don't.

Video is projected as soon as the music
starts.

Come in.

And then again at the end when I come
out to say a few words.

We'll chat soon. Okay.

Bye, Joseph.

Who's Joseph?

My lighting designer for the fashion
show. You know, the one in three days.

I'm just asking.

Joseph's a handsome name, that's all.

The fashion show is going to blow
everyone away.

It's not that.

Oh, is it the hat?

Why are you wearing that hat?

I lost a bet. Don't ask.

My clients actually like it. You know,
might keep it. Who knows? Could be my

thing.

Okay, come on.

Tell Santa what ails you.

Oh, you've got it bad, huh?

Well... It's only been a week, and if it
helps, all that country air makes it

look like you've had like a thousand
patients.

It just caught me by surprise.

I've always planned to work as hard as I
could now on my career, on my dreams,

thinking you'll have time for love, for
family later.

And you will.

What if it's messier than that?

What if love doesn't follow some perfect
life schedule?

How do you know when it's the kind of
love you walk away from because it's not

right? Or the once -in -a -lifetime love
you...

drop everything you're doing and run
towards because it could be more

spectacular than anything you've ever
planned for.

You'll love other men, Jess.

You weren't ready to let someone in
before, but now that you clearly are,

out, Manhattan.

Maybe this guy just wasn't the one.

He hates me.

He doesn't hate you. You just didn't see
eye to eye.

There are so many wonderful men out
there.

Ready to sweep a woman like you right
off your feet.

You just say the magic word and Zia Dina
will light your phone up with eligible

bachelors. With no kids.

That's the thing.

I really liked spending time with his
daughter.

It felt right. I really miss her, Dina.

Because you're not a troll.

You have feelings.

Think of that experience as a gift.

It showed you that you really do want to
be a mom.

You're right.

She was a gift, and Andrew was a gift. I
just wish it hadn't ended so badly. I

think I betrayed them both. And what
about my big, grandiose statement about

wanting to make a difference? Doesn't
accepting this prize money make me no

better than the Gwen Suttons of the
world?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You're
spiraling.

Macy!

not going to sit here and beat you up
when we have something so huge to

celebrate and something so exciting to
look forward to.

In three days, Jessica Hilliard is going
to premiere to the entire world. And

Jess Hilliard is going to change the
world from the inside out.

That's it. I've had enough.

Take this boring old outfit off and put
on something gorgeous. I'm taking you

out.

It's not boring.

Andrew, are you watching that French
toast?

Is

Georgia

not joining us?

No, she's still mad at me.

So am I, actually.

It's December 24th.

Isn't just this fashion show today?

Christine, I am not going to compromise
our family's legacy.

I won't do it.

I understand.

Okay. But this is bigger than the farm.

This is about love.

I keep thinking how she's all alone for
the holidays.

It's not right.

Mom and Dad always said that Christmas
was about giving and being with family.

And you and I are both old enough to
know that family is the most important

thing in the world.

Hey, it's worth fighting for.

What are you still doing here?

Georgia.

Georgia, honey.

Come on, get your coat. We can still
make it.

Woo -hoo!

Come on, hurry up, let's go.

Half an hour, everyone.

Rachel, I'll just fix your crown.

Ooh, Jess!

This is actually happening. I'm so
excited for you.

Oh, it's happening, all right.

Thank you so much, Dina.

Okay, everyone, we need to see those
accessories on staff.

Miss Jessica Hilliard.

Beverly Clemington, a pleasure to meet
you.

Mr. Clemington. Beverly,

please.

Pardon me. Thank you, Melinda. You're
ready for your accessory.

It's an honor to meet you, sir, and
thank you so much for selecting me.

You can't know just how much this means
to me.

Well, it was an easy decision.

Your sweaters are absolutely stunning.

The entire team was just blown away.

So was I. It was a magical experience.

So, my dear, how does it feel to know
your very own designs are about to be

in London, Paris, and Milan?

About that, would you mind if we talked
a little business?

Of course, darling.

Who are you?

Um, we're here to see Jeff.

Okay, and who are you?

We're a family, duh.

Andrew Flannery.

Uh, oh, right at the top.

Started yet? Um, I think you just made
it, yeah. Uh,

five dollars each?

I'll take them all.

Okay.

Baby, please come home.

I got the firewall.

Sitting here waiting now. I got
something just for you.

That book. That's a poem.

That's Mrs.

Santa Claus.

We're singing back the hall.

But it don't feel right. No, it's not
Christmas.

Thank you.

This collection was a true labor of
love.

Not only was it designed to embody
Christmas, a season of hope and joy, but

production forced me out of my comfort
zone and gave me the gift of being

fastened in a new light.

For several weeks, I had the privilege
of working on a family -run farm who

the product literally from head to tail.

I saw firsthand just how much time,
energy, and love goes into crafting a

garment. What a fitting experience for a
celebration of Christmas to see

something in a new light as if for the
first time.

Like a child on Christmas morning.

Like falling in love.

So, it is with immense pride and utter
joy that I make this announcement.

Clemingtons has just graciously agreed
to launch their first experimental small

run of 100 % sustainably sourced pure
alpaca fleece.

Making Jessica Hilliard the first of
what I hope is a continued Clemington

tradition of small -batch luxury
fashion.

Thank you.

Thank you so much, guys.

Excellent job, everyone. I truly could
not have done it without you.

Well done.

Quinn.

Jessica?

Fabulous.

Pardon me?

Exquisite work.

I may be the ice queen, but I do know
how to pick them. I knew you had it in

from the very start.

Thank you. That means a lot. You taught
me everything I know.

Well, not everything.

It was your instinct to go sustainable.

I clearly couldn't see it. Maybe I'm
aging out of the game.

No, of course not. You'll always have
your finger on the pulse.

That's why I'm committing Sutton to
being completely sustainable in one

time.

Fantastic, Gwen.

Well, I guess I'm... How did you say it?

Keeping up with the times.

I don't suppose I could tempt you back
into the fold.

Thank you, Gwen. But I love working for
myself, and a smaller brand makes it

easier to make decisions with my heart.
Worth a shot.

I'll see you around, Jessica Hilliard.

What did that woman say to you? Do you
want me to go after her? She said she

loved my collection.

She said that inspired her to go
sustainable.

That was Gwen Sutton, correct?

I know.

How amazing.

Well, if it's all so amazing, why do you
look so sad, sweetie?

I don't know.

I thought this was all I ever wanted.

But something is not right.

Something's missing.

Let's go out and celebrate.

I don't think I feel like going.

Oh, Jess, come on. It's Christmas Eve.
You love Christmas.

But this year's different, Dina.

I'm sorry. I'm just not in the mood to
celebrate.

Jess?

Georgia, you made it?

That was amazing.

Like, totally, totally amazing.

Wow, Jess, I'm so proud of you.

Thank you, Georgia.

Oh.

These are for you. Thank you.

Why don't you come with me and we'll try
on one of those big princess skirts

from the show. And the crowns too?

Yeah. Oh, yes, please.

Yeah, of course. Bye.

Do

you

want to follow me?

You don't have to take the contract if
you don't want.

But it's yours if you do.

And I really want you to.

Flannery Farm deserves a second chance.
The community deserves it.

You deserve it.

So I hope you can put aside whatever
feelings you have about me and just

be so darn stubborn and take the
contract, won't you?

I let you down.

No, I didn't.

Are you still mad at me?

I'm not mad at you.

I'm mad at myself.

For not letting you in sooner.

For not trusting you.

I was afraid to change.

It's a little bit afraid of you.

You are talented and intelligent and
driven.

And you are completely irresistible.

And I can't lie to myself anymore. Jeff,
I want to be with you.

And I know that being a partner with you
will mean trust and compromise.

And it means opening myself up again.

But I also know that I want to be by
your side through it all.

So will you come back?

Because it doesn't feel like home
without you there.

Home?

Yeah. It's become a home for you too,
hasn't it?

I don't know where my home is.

It's very clear in my mind.

Home for me is wherever you are.

Okay, Georgia, open this one first.

Whoa!

Your first sewing machine.

I had the same one when I was your age.

It's perfect.

I'm so glad you like it.

Maybe one day I'll be a famous designer
like you.

If that's what you want to be. Something
tells me you're going to do amazing

things, Georgia, whatever you put your
mind and heart to.

Okay, my turn.

What is it?

I'm going to build a new barn.

Double -decker.

So upstairs, we can have your office,
where you work and take your meetings.

And downstairs, we'll have a showroom.

Then when folks come and visit the farm,
they'll feel the love that we put into

what we do.

And then they'll leave with the Jessica
Hilliard original.

I know it's not a fancy shop on Fifth
Avenue.

Better.

All right, everyone.

Time for a family picture.

Get in here. Come on.

All right, we got ten seconds.

I was in ten seconds. I know. It was so
fast.

Thank you.
