We're gonna end up in a ditch.

I've got it. Here we go.

Remind me to check my email for RSVP's

to the Christmas Eve open house.

Oh, and did you tell Caleb

I need him to get all of the outside lights

out of the shed.

He already did, and he put them up.

Without me?

Great. Cowboy decorating.

Can't wait to see that!

So who's coming to this open house thing?

Some of Amy's clients

and a whole bunch of potential new customers.

There's gonna be sleigh rides,

hot apple cider in the barn.

Ice skating.

You are so transparent.

Excuse me? Oh, come on.

Christmas is less than a week away,

Peter's in to Estevan with his sick dad,

and you, you're keeping crazy busy

trying to escape reality.

End of story.

That is not it at all, okay?

I made the open house plans

before the whole Peter situation.

Mallory, can you... Be careful?!

You're carrying precious cargo. Whatever!

When do your parents get back

from Halifax again?

The day before Christmas Eve,

right after my dad's last concert.

But hopefully they can get a flight in earlier.

Yeah, hopefully.

Nice.

So, that's the thanks I get

for being your indentured servant.

Cry me a river, Mallory.

You've been a pampered house guest all week.

Peter's in to Estevan with his sick dad,

and you, you're keeping crazy busy

So?

So, what did you get me for Christmas?

Like I'd tell you.

Come on. Just give me a hint.

No way. What'd you get me?

Maybe I didn't get you anything.

Well, maybe I didn't get you anything either.

You are so...

I can't tell you.

It's a secret.

Please, Ty, I just dragged a tree with you.

Do you think you coulda got something

a little smaller?

Something that would maybe fit

through the front door?

What're you talking about? She's perfect.

Still...

You took your sweet time getting it.

Phone's been ringing.

Well, Scott's forwarded his vet calls to me.

He's away on holidays.

Yeah, well, I let 'em go to message.

All right, well I better check it out.

I could use your help here.

Come on, grandpa.

You can do it!

You see this one?

It was my great grandmother's.

And every year they go on the tree

in the exact same order,

in the exact same place.

Same place? Same order?

It's a Bartlett tradition.

Sounds fun.

Come on, Amy, lift your end.

Don't let it drag.

Looks a little small, don't you think?

It's gotta touch the ceiling.

As long as it's gonna touch the ceiling.

I personally guarantee it'll touch the ceiling.

If we can get it through the door.

I can't get it through the door!

Stop!

No, you have to pull it in the other way.

Let me try.

- Okay. - Oh! Ungh!

Ashley!

You all right?

Yeah.

Okay. Other way.

Okay, a little to the left...

Yeah... Mmm... No, no.

Back into the corner,

back into the corner, I think.

There you go.

Um... Can you spin it around?

I wouldn't mind seeing what the other side is like.

Maybe it's... Maybe it's fuller?

On the other side? No?

Hello?

Peter! Hey!

Just one sec.

Hey, how are things?

Lou... Well, how's your dad?

Really? When are you coming home?

- Lou? - I miss you.

Lou?!

Awww! It's so nice!

Our first tree together.

Our first Christmas.

So...

Do you know what you're getting me?

Something special to remember this Christmas

would be nice.

Ash, I really don't want anything.

We both know we don't have a lot of money.

I mean, heck, we don't have any money.

Well, I've got a way to buy a few little things.

No.

You're not using your mom's credit card.

It's just not happening.

Why not? She won't even notice.

And she's in Florida.

Yeah, well, that's not the point.

It's just not right.

So...

Let's make a pact.

Since neither of us can afford to get each other something,

let's do without gifts this year.

I guess.

Okay.

You're all I want for Christmas.

Whoa! Whoa!

To delete this message press...

I'm calling from Pike river.

There's this mountain pass

that got cut off by a snow slide

and some horses got trapped by it.

You would not believe Lou and this tree.

They're starving to death.

Someone's gotta get them outta there

before it's too late.

They're north of Pike river,

in Claw Valley, just below the falls.

I thought someone like a vet should know.

I hope you get this message.

I'm gonna call Scott.

No!

You can't go anywhere right now.

Look, me and you were gonna build

grandma Lindy's gingerbread house...

I already baked the pieces

and Ty promised to clear the pond

for the skating rink.

Which reminds me. Grandpa...

I will decorate the barn

and the cabins at the dude ranch.

I... I know, I know.

Thank you.

Do you really think I can pull off an open house

all on my own?

Well, you thought it up all on your own.

We all agreed

we were gonna do a traditional family Christmas this year.

Okay, and we still can.

I'll help you build the gingerbread house

when I get back.

Mallory, you can't just throw them on, okay?

That's not where that one goes.

Please...

Lou, I don't know how you can be thinking

about decorations and open houses

when there's horses out there starving to death.

I need you to help me here.

Grandpa...

Look, Pike River is way off the beaten track

and you might have trouble with the roads.

Okay, there's no room for discussion here.

I just talked to Scott

and he needs me to check it out,

so I'm going.

I checked the avalanche reports.

There's no warnings right now,

so conditions are stable in that area.

Good. Thanks.

Make sure that you come back in daylight.

Don't go driving those icy back roads in the dark.

Jack, I'll try.

You will do more than try.

And watch out for deer.

Grandpa.

Don't worry, okay?

We'll be fine.

See ya.

See ya, Lou.

We'll be back, okay? I promise.

See ya.

Well, that's Claw valley over there.

This is as far as we can go in the truck.

All right. Let's do it.

All right.

Think this is the place?

Let's check it out.

Oh my God.

Go, Amy!

You okay?

Fine. I'm fine.

Amy! It's not safe!

Amy, stop!

Amy, would you just...

Hey...

Hey.

Good girl.

Whoa...

Whoa...

Hey, you're okay.

You're okay.

Good girl.

This mare's pregnant.

Ty, these aren't wild horses.

These are just quarter horses.

Well, what're they doing here?

Who knows?

Good girl.

Hey, girl.

They all have frostbite.

Where're you going?

To get hay and blankets.

Okay, that's good, Mallory.

Just slice the nuts a little bit finer, 'kay?

Did you get them?

Yes, I got them.

Have you heard anything from Amy and Ty yet?

Amy called when they were on the road

and she said they would call back

when they got into cell range.

You know, I still can't believe

you let them go.

I needed all hands on deck,

and now I'm totally stressing

and I think I'm breaking out!

Peter called. It's not looking good

for a happy Christmas homecoming.

Hence the mood.

You should just get on a plane

and go to Estevan.

Cancel the stupid open house.

I can't. How unprofessional would that be?

Lou, why do you set yourself up like this?

Do you have to be "on" all the time?

You need a dimmer switch,

just like the ones you sent me into town for;

just like the ones

I went to seven different hardware stores to find...

Grandpa, Hudson doesn't have seven different hardware stores.

Packed with crazy Christmas shoppers.

Okay! They're important!

They make the lights look pretty.

Hmph. Dimmers switches...

You gotta love the Christmas spirit

just oozing out of everyone's pores.

Ready?

One, two...

Three!

Well, maybe there's another way outta her.

Let me take a look around.

Okay.

Baby...

So, it's not good.

Nothing but dead ends...

waterfall,

cliff.

There's gotta be some way out.

Come on...

Come on.

Come on, boy.

Come on! There you go.

Come on!

Come on.

Whoa, Amy!

Hey. You all right?

You all right?

Yeah.

Whoa. Easy, boy.

Amy, this isn't gonna work.

The snow's too deep;

they're gonna break their legs.

It's all right, buddy.

We'll find a way to get you outta here, okay.

Amy, look,

they're trapped.

This is an impossible situation.

We gotta try.

Okay, well...

They have enough food for tonight.

We'll come back tomorrow

and we'll figure it out from there.

Okay.

We should get going.

Yeah.

Good boy.

Are you hungry?

Starving.

Here, let me get that for you.

What can I get for you?

Some menus please.

Thanks.

Thank you.

All right, you call him.

I'm not calling. It was your idea.

You call. Wuss.

Great. There's no reception.

There's a pay phone over there.

It's not working.

Oh...

Do you have a phone I could use?

Long distance?

Yeah.

Then pay me ahead. 10 dollars.

Here you go.

Ten dollars?!

Listen, I tried to get a hold of Amy.

Does anybody know where is she?

Don't ask.

Could be Lisa.

Hello?

Amy.

Where are you?

Grandpa, would you just listen?

I told Ty to head back early!

We found the horses, okay?

We probably could've got them out too, but...

There was another avalanche.

Another avalanche?!

What? Where are they?

Pike river.

Amy, you tell Ty

that he can go back tomorrow if he has to,

but I want you home and I want you home now!

No, we're not coming home tonight.

Okay? It's too late.

We'll just stay here

and tomorrow we'll go back and feed the horses

and try and figure out a plan.

They're in really bad shape, grandpa.

Okay?

Maybe we can get some of the towns people

to help us out.

Great. Horsey people!

Where do you plan on staying for the night?

What, staying? Together?

No, give me the phone, Jack.

Just let me handle this.

Like you've done such a good job so far.

Give me the phone. Put Ty on the phone.

For you.

Yes, sir.

Absolutely.

Okay.

Well, your dad's in a good mood.

Uh... excuse me?

Is there any place in town we can stay?

No.

Uh, there was hotel that we passed on the way in.

It's closed for the season.

You sure there's not somewhere?

We just really don't wanna spend the night in our truck.

Sam, where've you been all day?

I could've used your help here.

What about the house?

They could stay there.

They can't stay in their truck.

Sorry, I didn't get your name.

Joanna Hawke.

I'm Amy Fleming.

I'm Ty Borden.

That'll get you a fire started. There's more wood outside.

I'd like the rent in advance.

Make it $50 a night.

Fifteen?

Fifty.

Fifty.

And about those horses out in Claw valley?

Just stay away from there;

that'd be my advice.

It's dangerous.

The snow conditions out that way are terrible.

No, they aren't.

I checked the reports.

Oh, on what? Your old ham radio?

Why don't you try the Internet, Jack.

They got new snow up there the day before yesterday.

It's gorgeous.

Best tree ever.

No-no-no.

It's perfect... Just the way it is.

Of course it is.

Finally.

Hi, dad! Where are you guys?

Can't you catch a flight home earlier?

For crying out loud, will you give it a rest?!

No! No, because I still don't get it.

Why would you even let them go?

They got snow out there day before yesterday.

Fresh snow. On top of packed snow.

Deadly combination.

Those two could get buried in another avalanche.

The weather's gonna be fine tomorrow.

I'll drive out there and get 'em packing.

Good idea.

Great, I'm going.

No you're not.

The hell I'm not.

I'm not gonna be cooped up in a truck with you

for three hours.

Look, I don't care who goes,

but I am disowning all of you

if you are not back asap.

There's, um, a massive snowstorm in Halifax, so...

My mom and dad won't be home for like days.

So much for the supply of wood that Joanna said was outside.

I just chopped up an entire tree.

Come look at this.

That kid, Sam, is Joanna's son.

They must have lived here. This grade four...

Probably what, five years ago?

You cold?

I'll make you some tea. It'll warm you up.

Or not.

Ah, forget it.

I got a better idea.

Oh!

- Yeah! - Oh gross!

Oh, thank you.

You're welcome.

All right.

Comfy?

Mm-hmm.

What was that?

It's the damper! Urgh!

Oh man!

Oh God! Ugh!

Whoa!

It's like your dad rigged the place.

What're you looking at?

Nothing.

Is it me or is it really cold in here?

Yeah, now that you mention it.

I'll check the heater.

It's uh... It's stone cold.

Mallory?

Mallory, you okay?

Are you okay?

I don't mean to be such a baby,

I've just never been alone on Christmas before.

Well, you're not exactly alone.

You're a pretty important part of this family,

don't you think?

You're not alone, Mallory.

Is there anything we can do to help?

There's nothing anyone can do.

Well...

There is one thing.

If I had some of my own Christmas stuff,

it'd make me feel a little better.

Sure.

No problem.

Thanks.

Okay.

What are you doing here?

I'm going with you.

Oh no you are not.

I told you last night.

Just get a move on. Okay?

I've got the truck warming up for your old bones.

Well, we're not taking your truck.

Well, we're not taking that heap of yours.

Ty.

Wolves?

Yeah, looks like.

There's nine left.

And your friend over there, she's definitely pregnant.

She can't foal here.

Not with wolves and coyotes and...

Should tell her that.

Hey, Ty,

we could...

We could start digging and like make a trench.

A trench?

Yeah. It doesn't have to be huge,

just wide enough to get the horses through.

That would take us forever.

We could get help.

Hey!

What're you doing here?!

Just get the hell outta here!

Those horses are gonna die.

We're just trying to get them out.

Well don't!

Just get outta here! This is private property!

Are you deaf?

I said... now!

Okay!

Lou! What?

You promised to drive me to my house

to pick up my stuff.

I will. I will. Okay?

Just let me get a couple more things done

on my "to do" list.

I've been asking you all morning!

Hello! Sorry to just drop in.

Yeah.

Heater's busted in the trailer.

So is it okay if we stay here 'til the guy comes to fix it?

Uh, well, I kind of- He said he's gonna do it today.

Okay.

Ooh, are you making fruitcake?

Hey.

Caleb, I need a favour.

Can you drive me to my house to pick up my stuff?

I've been asking Lou and she says she will

but she never does.

Sure. No worries.

What kind of stuff?

Hey!

I saw you down with the horses.

I got a call about them.

That was me.

I was out there right after the slide

and... I knew they needed help

and no one would listen to me.

Then I remembered this vet guy from Hudson.

Scott cardinal?

Yeah, I work for him.

So... What about the horses?

Can you help them?

We'd like to.

Except for some old guy just aimed his rifle at us,

told us to get off the property, so...

Oh...

That'd be my grandfather.

Your grandfather?

He owns the land.

So, can't you just talk to him,

tell him what we're trying to do?

Just make him understand.

I can't.

Why?

My mom and me... We don't talk to him.

Haven't for years.

No one talks to Will Vernon.

Sorry.

I don't know why you didn't turn off back there.

Because there's a better road just west of here.

And I'm telling ya, I'm looking at the map...

Is there any more coffee?

No. I only made enough for me

and you had the best of that.

Well why don't you start by holding the map

the right way around. Okay?

It is the right way!

'Cause that's gonna help.

Watch-watch watch-watch watch!

Ah geez!

Ah... gee... what the...?

What the hell was he doing

driving down the middle of the road?!

Hey!

Hey!

Will Vernon?!

It's been years. Jack Bartlett.

- Okay? - No! No!

- Yes or no? - Crank it on up, Tim.

Do you want me to do this?

Okay, you know what? Just put the thing on there.

All right, you're good to go.

Okay, I know what I'm doing.

- Go! - Easy on that bumper.

There you go. Stay on it.

Good, Will. Good, Will.

Shoulda done it myself.

Yeah, well lucky we had my truck.

Guy's lucky we're helping him at all.

Just keep your shirt on.

He's an old friend of mine.

We used to rodeo together.

Yeah, who drives down the middle of the road

on a curve.

You're good to go, Will.

Hey, it's good to see you. What, live around here?

Nice friend.

Shut up.

He took my tow hook.

You're welcome!

♪ Frosty, Frosty make us smile ♪

What the...?

♪ It's only winter for a while ♪

Uh...

Hey.

What is that?

A mini beer mug.

My dad got it at this Octoberfest thing

he was singing at.

But this is my mom's favourite.

You just squeeze it like this...

So gross!

That's awesome!

Thanks, Lou. I feel so much better

now that my stuff is here.

Uh, Lou, is it okay if we stay here tonight?

Yeah, the, uh, heater guy had to send for a part.

Can't get it 'til tomorrow.

I guess that's a yes.

That's great.

Hi there.

I'm Jack Bartlett.

Hi, Tim Fleming.

Joanna.

Nice to meet you, Joanna.

Maybe you can help us. We're...

Yeah, were I'm looking for my daughter,

Amy Fleming.

And she's got a friend, Ty.

Do you know where we can find them?

Dad?

What the heck is going on here?

What were you thinking?

Excuse me? What're you doing here?

We're bringing you home.

No, grandpa.

The horses are still trapped.

Then he can stay and deal with it.

Jack, hold on a second. We're doing this together.

Amy's helping me out there.

Can we at least show you what we're dealing with?

So what we thought we'd do is we'd dig a trench

right through it.

Right through it?

A trench?

Well, you got a month or two of free time?

Doesn't really matter.

We don't need to talk about it 'cause it's not doable.

Trench, huh?

Crazy.

It might be the only way to get these guys outta here.

Jack, you'd need a whole crew,

and I'm talking about a big crew.

Then we need to get the town on our side.

The only problem is, the guy who owns this land

basically pointed a rifle at us.

Pointed a rifle?

Who pointed a rifle at you?

Sam's grandfather.

Who's Sam?

Sam Hawke.

His mom owns the bar and grill in town.

Guy have a name?

I'd like to have a word with him.

Uh, Will... Vernon.

Will Vernon.

Hold it.

If you come looking for money for that tow,

you can forget it.

I ain't got no money for you.

The tow was free, Will.

Can you put that thing down?

Okay, what do you want?

Well, you gotta admit it's...

It's a small world, huh?

I remember that rodeo. I was there.

You beat me by a point.

Heh.

It was a pretty wild time on that circuit.

You remember that pick-up band we started?

Graham Tuttle and I couldn't strum a guitar worth a damn

but you played a pretty mean fiddle.

What do you want?

Well, I gotta admit, Will,

I'm not too happy with you pointing that rifle of yours

at my granddaughter and her friend.

That's your granddaughter?

That's Amy.

She's just trying to help those horses.

Well, she's trespassing.

Well, just give 'er a break.

I figure you owe me;

we coulda left you stuck out there in that ditch.

They're my horses;

I'll do with my horses what I please.

Your horses?

That's right.

So just get back in your pickup truck

and go back where you come from.

And don't go rattling on about any old days.

Old days are dead and gone!

Yeah, well, I could care less whose horses they are.

They're in trouble

and I'm gonna do something about it!

What do you mean you've got a job to do out there?

Lou...

So what, I'm on my own with this open house?

Just simmer down.

Okay, well then, what about Christmas?

Are we still gonna have

a family Christmas together or...?

Of course we'll have our family Christmas.

Well, I hope so.

Fine.

Yeah, okay.

Goodbye.

They're not coming back.

Not today.

Maybe not even tomorrow.

Well, that's it.

I'll just cancel my open house.

I'll just send out a mass email

and that'll be that.

I have no choice.

It's just as well, Lou.

You know, you're right, Mallory.

It probably is just as well

because look at this place.

That is the ugliest Christmas tree

I have ever seen, bar none!

The tree is ugly because of my decorations?

Oh, is that it?

I'm sorry, Lou, I ruined your perfect tree.

I'm sorry your ordered little world was rocked!

How do you think I feel being stuck in this house with you

and everyone else being gone?!

Thank God for Caleb and Ashley.

At least they have a sense of humour.

You're just the most horrible non-Christmas person

I've ever known!

Okay, that is not true!

I love Christmas!

No you don't.

All Christmas means to you is being a control freak

and having everything perfect!

Oh, I'm sorry, Lou.

I didn't know that great aunt Ruby's hummingbird,

made with real authentic parrot feathers,

is supposed to go next to

grandma Lindy's silver freakin' star!

I don't have to listen to this!

♪ It's the time of love and joy ♪

Ugh!

♪ Children playing in the snow ♪

♪ with Santa laughing ho, ho, ho, ho ♪

♪ Frosty, Frosty make us smile... ♪

You killed Frosty?!

Joanna, can we talk?

I talked to Will Vernon.

That's your dad, right?

He says those horses that are trapped out there

are his.

How would I know?

Small place - I bet you have some idea.

He's a guide.

Not so much anymore I guess,

but I know he took a bunch of hunters out there

in the fall.

Those horses have probably been out there ever since.

He obviously decided

to let them fend for themselves

and save on the cost of feed.

Typical.

I want you to know that I knew your dad.

A lot of years ago, we...

We rodeoed together.

We were pretty good friends.

Let me tell you about the Will Vernon

that I remember.

He was a great guy.

A generous guy.

He had biggest, craziest sense of humour

of anyone I ever met.

I'm sorry, I got customers.

Hey, Joanna.

Thanks for the use of the phone.

I remember the guy you remember.

I do.

But he died five years ago.

You could knock.

What are you doing?

I'm moving back to my own house.

I will not live under the same roof

as a Frosty murderer.

Okay, Mallory, you know what?

Whether you or I like it or not,

you are in my care

until your parents get back.

You gonna kill him too?

You're staying. End of story.

Fine. Then just don't talk to me.

Fine!

I never thought I'd live to see the day

where I didn't have to listen to you blather on!

Okay. Talk later.

Uh, Lou?

We couldn't get our heater fixed.

Guy couldn't get the part, it being Christmas and all.

Thanks for letting us stay the night.

Hey, Sam.

Hey.

You wanna help?

Sure.

You can help me take these bales down.

Ugh... God.

Ungh!

Thank you.

Hey, guys. What do we got for ya, huh?

Can you grab the other bale?

Um... sure.

What's going on here?

I told you to get outta here!

Will, what do you think you're doing?

I'm just gonna shoot these horses

and put 'em out of their misery.

No you are not.

Get outta my way!

Grampa, no!

Sam!

Guys, watch out!

Get off to the side!

Sam!

Sam!

Grab on tight!

Aahhhh!

Sam!

Sam!

Sam!

Sam! Sam! Hold on! Wait! Sam!

Sam!

Sam!

Sam!

Here! Here!

- Sam! - Sam!

Sam!

Come on, guys, get him out!

Hold on, hold on.

Easy, easy.

Thank God.

Get a blanket!

Let me see.

You all right? Grampa.

Okay.

You're okay, son.

You're all right.

How dare you involve Sam?

You shouldn't have been out there in the first place.

There's been two slides in two days!

What're you thinking?

The horses, they needed to be...

The horses, they needed to be...

The horses, they needed to be...

The horses, they needed to be...

The horses, they needed to be...

The... the horses?!

You put my son at risk for some senseless mission?

It's not senseless.

Look, Joanna.

It was probably your father's gunshot

that triggered the damn avalanche.

Gun shot?!

He was bent on shooting those horses.

I told you not to go out there

and you're never going out there again,

do you hear me?

I already lost your father to that damn valley;

I am not gonna lose you too.

What did your mom mean about losing your dad?

I was nine.

It was Christmas Eve.

My dad and three of his buddies

went out snowmobiling together...

out along the river bed out to Claw valley...

and there was an avalanche.

They were all killed.

My dad and me,

we were supposed to go get a Christmas tree

out of the bush...

He said he'd be right back.

I'm so sorry.

I never would've asked for your help

if I had've known.

I wanna help.

I'm gonna help.

I'm glad you came.

Even if there's nothing we can do.

Answer the door!

You hear me?!

How dare you have a gun anywhere near my son.

Haven't you hurt him enough?

Say something!

I don't want you to go anywhere near him again

ever!

Do you hear what I'm saying to you?

Come on...

What're we doing?

This is crazy!

We're not crazy.

Yeah?

We're gonna do this.

Really? Well, we're gonna need some help

because otherwise,

we're gonna be here 'til the spring.

We should go home.

This is crazy.

We should just forget about it.

Come on, Amy,

this doesn't sound like you.

It's two days 'til Christmas.

Lou is at home alone and...

It just isn't fair.

I think we need to try.

Tim's right.

We gotta get some help.

Okay, we've got something to say.

I hope you'll hear us out.

As you know, there's some horses

stuck up there in Claw valley.

And they're in really rough shape.

So, we have a plan.

We're gonna dig a trench right through the slide

and we're gonna get them out.

A trench? You're kdding, right?

We're not kidding.

We need help.

We need people to dig.

I understand there's a lot of bad memories up there,

but maybe this is a way to do something positive.

Jesus h. Murphy,

you people are beyond stupid.

Hey, you got a problem?

Yeah, I have a problem.

Do you know how dangerous it is up there?

You start disturbing snow and you're asking for trouble.

Four men died in Claw valley, five years ago.

Friends.

Neighbours.

We don't want any more tragedies.

I understand what you're concern is

and I know it's dangerous,

but there was 12 horses there and now there's nine.

One was killed by wolves just the other night.

Yeah. Well...

Those are Will Vernon's horses.

So?

What does it matter whose horses they are?

There's a pregnant mare out there

and she'll probably gonna lose her foal

if we don't do something.

All we're asking for is... Is your help.

Wow.

You have a change of heart, you know where we'll be.

Yes!

He's worse...

Peter's dad.

So we're speaking?

Yes.

Just get on a plane and go.

I can't, Mallory. You know I can't.

Well, Caleb and I can stay here with Mallory.

Really?

Are you sure?

Go.

Why should all of us be miserable?

Hey! It's Christmas.

Hi. Anybody around?

Joanna.

What can I get for you?

Oh... some coffees for the troops.

Maybe muffins.

Look, I can understand you being mad at us

for maybe using your place as a bit of a soap box,

but don't turn away our business,

come on.

How many coffees?

Four... And a hot chocolate.

It's pretty quiet in here.

Well, you guys have a way of clearing people out.

It's just we don't know when to quit.

It's a family problem.

One of many.

What colour are your eyes?

You've got beautiful eyes.

They're sort of green, or...

Sort of blue?

How many coffees was it?

Uh, two more.

And a hot chocolate.

So, you haven't talked to your father

for five years since the accident?

Uh... Sam told us.

I got you beat.

My father-in-law, Jack...

my ex-father-in-law...

we didn't talk for ten years.

Took us a long time to work things out.

Sounds like one big happy family.

Yeah...

I wouldn't go that far.

We try.

Yeah, well, I tried too.

With my dad, I did.

In the beginning, I did.

But he closed the door on me

and he never opened it again.

And I never blamed him.

What could he have done?

The men, my husband?

They were gone, so...

Why would I blame him?

Blame him for what?

You can just pay me later.

Took you long enough.

Aw, you try walking up the side of an avalanche

with four hot coffees, muffins,

and a hot chocolate. Here you go, buddy.

Thanks.

Dad, look how much we've done.

Yeah, I hate to say,

your trench looks like a gopher hole

in the back forty, honey.

Ah, Tim!

Aw, come on! You know it does, Jack.

They got shovels.

We need to build ramps;

the horses'll never make it up without it.

Can we get some wood cut in town?

Absolutely.

Okay. Some plywood. Maybe cut to six feet.

Two by fours for cleats.

Okay, sure. Sounds good.

Thanks.

Amy!

He's barely breathing.

It's okay. Shhh...

It's okay.

It's okay. Shhh...

Hey, Jack.

Are you happy now?!

Maybe they'll all die!

Is that what you want?

Oh. Hey, Sam.

Uh, it's for you.

That is the cutest little tree

I've ever seen.

Thank you! Where should we put it?

Uh, how about there?

Sure.

I'm sorry I ran off.

It's okay.

I was embarrassed...

In front of all those people.

They all hate my grandfather.

For what? Why?

I miss this place.

Since my dad died,

my mom, she hates Christmas.

We don't even have a tree.

We used to.

It always stood right there.

Sam...

I understand what you're going through.

I do.

You may not think so, but...

Some time I'll tell you my story, okay?

- Hi. - Hey!

Excuse me.

Joanna!

Come on, I know you're not closed.

It's cold out here. I'm hungry.

Hi.

What do you need?

Well, actually, I just wanted to talk to you.

You said that you were hungry.

Here, let me help you.

No it's fine. Let me help you.

I'll take it. I got- Ohhh!

Agh. I'm sor..

I'm sorry. Be careful...

No. It's fine.

No...

Be careful, there's glass.

I'm fine! I've got it.

Well, you're cut.

I'm an idiot.

No, you're just...

You're just bleeding.

No, I got it, it's fine.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

I wish that choir would just quit it.

It's Christmas Eve tomorrow

and I just wanna go to sleep

and wake up to find that it's all over.

Yeah, that's understandable.

I mean, poor Sam, he's the one who suffers.

No family, no Christmas.

Well, you can change that.

I told you, I tried. I did.

Do you think I like this situation?

It's a mess.

It's a total mess.

Joanna...

I mean, you've got your whole life ahead

and... you just...

Have to decide o o move forward.

That's easy to say.

Remember that ten years I told you about?

Well, that was ten years

that I did not spend with my daughters;

that I was not a part of their life.

That was ten years that I will never get back.

So I can tell you that there is a big price to pay

for isolating yourself.

So I'd really like you to come out.

We could use all the help we can get.

I can't.

I can't. I haven't been out there since...

Maybe it'll help.

I should go.

No, it's fine. Leave it.

Really, it's fine.

Just...

Just come.

We've hauled out rocks

now we got a tree trunk...

People are getting tired. Now we got a problem here.

Well, cheer up, buddy.

I think your problem's solved.

Well, look who's here.

Hey, mom.

Hey...

You okay?

Yeah.

I'm fine.

Look, I'm sorry.

I know you said not to, but...

I knew you were here all along.

Who else was the hot chocolate for?

Hi. Hey there.

Um... I know it's Christmas Eve,

but is there any chance that you guys are still open?

Yeah. That's great.

'Cause I'd like to buy charm... The star.

It's the one from your newspaper ad.

And how much is that?

It's that much, huh?

Okay, well here's the deal,

do you guys do buy and sell?

Yeah? That's great.

Thank you very much. I'm gonna be right over.

Thank you. Bye.

You got it? Yeah.

This is amazing.

Yeah. It is.

You're crazy.

You know, speaking of crazy...

Lou's at home and it's Christmas Eve...

And we're not even there.

Won't you let an old friend in, Will?

I saw you up there today.

Good for you.

Well, it's my land.

Why wouldn't I be up there?

Huh? You know, I should have thrown all you idiots off of there!

I mean, who do you think you are

coming in there, making a mess of everything

with your machines and...

For cryin' out... You know what?

I am wasting my time here.

Did I ask you over here?

No.

And make sure you pull that outside door shut

when you leave.

What the hell is wrong with you, huh?!

Wasting your life away, holed up like a hermit!

What happened?!

I remember you!

You were the guy that always got people together.

It wasn't a party 'til Will Vernon showed up.

That's right.

The party never started till ol' Will showed up.

And look where that got me?

In the end, you know "what goes around comes around,"

you've heard that?

Well, it sure came and bit me pretty good in the end,

didn't it?

I know all about your son-in-law.

The accident - I know all about it.

You don't know anything.

You don't know me!

You come in here... You don't know me!

We rodeoed together, we partied together,

we was half in the bag. That's another life.

'Nother life. It's over.

You're right.

I don't know you.

Goodbye.

Ah, for Christ's sake! Goddammit Christmas!

It was me that took 'em up there.

It was me that asked them to go up there!

It was Christmas Eve!

Christmas Eve, for God's sakes.

All these young guys...

They're all supposed to be helping their wives out,

you know, getting the trees in,

putting them up in the house...

all the usual Christmas crap...

and I promised them a good time.

Let's go grab ourselves a couple cases of beer,

let's get the machines and let's head up there

to the valley, there's new snow.

It was beautiful, so fine it was like pearl dust.

And they all came along.

They all came along because I asked 'em to.

Well, we was having a very good time,

it was good, I gotta tell ya.

We was drinking and laughing and joking one minute

and then the next...

Jack, it was like...

White.

It was like a tidal wave.

I was so lucky there was a tree right there.

I grabbed and I managed to just like stay above the snow, eh?

And then by the time it started to clear

I looked back...

And all them guys was gone.

They're just gone...

And I heard there was another slide coming.

I was terrified.

And you know what I did?

I ran. I just run for my life.

What else could you do?

No, no, no, no, no. You know what that feels like?

All these young guys,

they had their whole lives laid out in front of them,

everything to live for,

and they're all gone.

They're just completely disappeared.

And the only one left alive at the end of the day is me...

the old man. I'm alive.

Well...

No, maybe not. Maybe...

Maybe I'm dead too.

Yeah. Yes I am, I'm dead.

I wish I was.

Well...

Might as well be.

The way you've cut yourself off here.

I didn't cut myself off.

They all left me.

My wife left me.

My daughter doesn't even talk to me no more.

She won't even let me see my own grandson.

Godsake!

That's bs!

You couldn't get past your own guilt

to be there for her.

Look, Will,

I gonna say this

and you can throw me out again...

You have to take the first step

to make this right.

Too late in the game.

It's too late, Jack.

You take it from me.

It's never too late.

Merry Christmas, Will.

Excuse me.

Could I have everybody's attention,

just for one second, up here.

I'm the one responsible for these horses here.

And I just wanted to thank you for helping them.

It's a wonderful thing you've done here.

That's about it. Thank you.

All of you.

Well, then pick up a damn shovel, old man!

All right. I'm on it.

- Hi, Tim. - Hey.

Well, it was my turn to get you a coffee.

Cheers.

Hey, hey, watch out.

Here they come! Here they come!

Hey, Jack.

I just wanna thank you, all of you,

for what you did out there.

Especially for sticking to it the way you did.

Thank you.

Young lady,

I promise I will look out for those horses

from here on.

Jack.

Right, give the horses back to the guy

who abandoned them in the first place.

Great idea.

He'll look after 'em this time.

He needs 'em.

Jo?

Can I talk to you...

the both of youse?

I got something I wanna say.

Just...

It's just wrong...

How I've let things get this way.

I've been a...

I've just been an old fool.

And I want to fix it.

Is there any way that you'd be willing

to give me... Give me a chance to do so?

How about you, Sam?

Is it all right with you?

Mmm!

So I managed to book a flight out

first thing in the morning.

Are you guys sure you're okay with this?

Absolutely. Totally.

I'd kind of hoped that grandpa and the rest of them

would make it home by now,

but... I guess not.

Christmas is officially cancelled.

I guess it is.

My parents just phoned and they can't get out.

Oh, Mallory. I'm so sorry.

So, since Christmas is cancelled,

I'll be in my room.

Early flight.

Well...

My Christmas isn't cancelled,

is yours?

Not at all.

I know we said we wouldn't get each other anything,

but... Ash...

Look, I found a way to get you something

I know that you'll love.

'Kay, I actually did the same.

Really? You're kidding me.

No, not at all.

Merry Christmas.

Thanks, babe.

Oh my God.

Caleb...

It's exactly what I wanted.

Ash, this is amazing. It's...

It's just that...

But I sold my bracelet to buy you the belt.

I sold my "all around cowboy" buckle

to buy you that star.

Oh my God!

This is an O. Henry moment!

"O" who?

He wrote this story called "The Gift of the Magi."

And it's basically about this woman

who sells her hair to buy her husband...

Come here.

Ah!

Hey, what's going on?!

Come on!

- Aww... - Wow!

Foal's yours if you want it.

Well, looks like the power's out everywhere.

It's pitch black out there.

Hey, did we turn the water off in the trailer?

No. I thought the heater guy would get it.

What if he didn't?

The pipes might burst.

We gotta go.

No, you guys promised you'd stay and watch Mallory.

We'll be back in the morning before you leave.

Yeah, we'll see you tomorrow, all right?

Bye!

Well, I think there's some candle holders

in the china cabinet.

Any particular style or colour?

Don't push it.

Mallory, look...

I'm sorry I was so...

Christmas spirit challenged?

I didn't mean to be.

I just...

I really wanted this Christmas to be perfect,

like it used to be.

You have to admit,

this Christmas kinda sucks.

Yeah.

Kinda does.

Well, at least you get to see Peter tomorrow.

No, I...

I'm not going to Estevan tomorrow.

Yes you are.

No, I'm not.

I wanna spend Christmas with you.

Peter will understand.

Well you must be happy about one thing.

Oh really? What's that?

You can't see the horrible deed

I did to your tree.

It actually does kinda look better in the dark.

Yeah.

I miss my mom and dad.

I miss Peter.

So, you have to go?

- See ya later. - Yeah.

I wanna make it home for Christmas.

Thanks, you know, for everything.

I'm really psyched about the foal. Yeah.

Grandpa says it's my Christmas present.

I'll miss you.

I'll come back and visit.

If you ever get sick of him,

there's always me.

See ya.

Well, it's good to bump into you.

Yeah, literally.

Drive on the right side of the road from now on,

you crazy old fool.

I'll try.

Thanks.

Hey, take care of your family.

I will.

Thanks.

Let's get this show on the road.

Where's Tim?

So...

Stay in touch.

Well, I have to;

I'll miss your coffee.

I gotta come back.

Well, you would be more than welcome.

Really?

You mean that?

Yes.

Bye! See you later! Thank you!

Okay, so, just load it up.

Just like that. Mm-hm.

Mmm! It's pretty good!

Yeah. Me and my parents never really got around

to making the actual gingerbread house.

So we made it a family tradition

that every Christmas morning

we would make our gingerbread house sandwiches.

Good idea.

- Merry Christmas! - Anybody home?

You're back! Finally!

Guy, you're back!

Uh... Lou? What are you wearing?

How are you guys doing?

It's a Wells family tradition.

They're awesome.

Ah... looks great.

Did you guys get the horses out okay?

We did! And one of them foaled.

We're home.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

- Dad, hi. - Hi ya, honey.

This place is freezing.

Yeah, it's chilly.

And where are the lights?

Well, the power went off and...

Never mind.

What happened to your tree?

It's a Mallory tree!

And it's perfect.

Okay...

Mmmm!

Do you wanna do the honours, grandpa?

Yes, I would love to!

Grandpa!

- Look at this! - Oh! Turkey!

Hey.

Peter! What...

What are you doing here? I can't believe this!

What about your dad? How is he?

He's okay. He's getting better.

My brother showed up to take over, so...

I'm so happy you're here.

Mmm...

I couldn't miss our first Christmas together.

Merry Christmas!

Look who I found at the airport?

Mallory!

Oh my God! You're here!

Finally! You have no idea.

Merry Christmas, sweetheart.

Well hello, folks!

Hey!

Hi Jess!
