Okay. There you go.
15
00:01:12,364 --> 00:01:14,444
There's a bench right over there
you can put them on.
16
00:01:14,533 --> 00:01:16,702
Please, let me know
if you need any help.
17
00:01:16,785 --> 00:01:18,078
Have fun.
18
00:01:21,540 --> 00:01:23,333
Yeah...
19
00:01:29,631 --> 00:01:31,049
Can you get up?
20
00:01:33,176 --> 00:01:34,052
Can you wait just one minute?
21
00:01:34,177 --> 00:01:35,470
I'll be right back.
22
00:01:43,687 --> 00:01:45,939
Oh, May I?
23
00:01:46,023 --> 00:01:48,650
It's okay. I used
to fall down a lot!
24
00:01:48,734 --> 00:01:49,860
Let me help you up.
25
00:01:49,985 --> 00:01:51,445
Ooh, got it.
26
00:01:51,528 --> 00:01:52,528
What's your name?
27
00:01:52,571 --> 00:01:53,905
Grace.
28
00:01:54,031 --> 00:01:55,824
Grace, I'm Courtney
it's nice to meet you.
29
00:01:55,949 --> 00:01:57,451
You're doing great.
30
00:01:57,534 --> 00:01:59,202
Have you ever skated before?
31
00:01:59,328 --> 00:02:02,039
A couple times.
32
00:02:02,122 --> 00:02:04,708
I learned to skate right
here on this rink
33
00:02:04,833 --> 00:02:06,293
(giggles)
34
00:02:07,419 --> 00:02:09,212
Hey, you're doing great.
35
00:02:09,338 --> 00:02:13,675
Now just push to
the side and glide.
36
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,511
That's it. That's it.
37
00:02:16,637 --> 00:02:17,804
Awesome.
38
00:02:17,929 --> 00:02:19,849
Now I'm going to let you
do it on your own, okay?
39
00:02:19,890 --> 00:02:23,644
Okay.
40
00:02:23,727 --> 00:02:26,897
You're doing it!
41
00:02:27,022 --> 00:02:28,273
My Ompa works in there.
42
00:02:28,357 --> 00:02:29,983
Oh, wow, he works for the city?
43
00:02:30,108 --> 00:02:31,401
Uh‐huh.
44
00:02:31,485 --> 00:02:32,527
Nice.
45
00:02:32,653 --> 00:02:35,197
‐Whoa! ‐Oh, whoops. I got you.
46
00:02:35,322 --> 00:02:37,866
Now you try.
47
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:40,661
‐Thank you. ‐Of course.
48
00:02:40,744 --> 00:02:43,163
We have class on Tuesday
and Thursday afternoon
49
00:02:43,288 --> 00:02:44,808
for kids her age
if she'd like to join.
50
00:02:44,873 --> 00:02:47,876
And we do a show at
the Christmas Carnival.
51
00:02:48,001 --> 00:02:50,128
‐Merry Christmas!
‐Merry Christmas!
52
00:03:08,855 --> 00:03:10,065
See you tomorrow, Trevor.
53
00:03:10,190 --> 00:03:11,817
You betcha. Have a great night.
54
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:12,984
You, too.
55
00:03:13,068 --> 00:03:14,653
(phone vibrates)
56
00:03:18,865 --> 00:03:21,827
Hello?
57
00:03:21,952 --> 00:03:24,162
Oh, hi, Mr. Greenwood.
58
00:03:24,246 --> 00:03:27,999
Sure, tomorrow at 9:00AM,
no problem.
59
00:03:28,125 --> 00:03:29,835
Okay, see you then. Bye.
60
00:03:34,923 --> 00:03:36,967
Hey, Trev.
61
00:03:37,092 --> 00:03:38,927
Can you cover for me
tomorrow morning?
62
00:03:39,010 --> 00:03:40,429
I have an early meeting.
63
00:03:43,348 --> 00:03:45,225
Only if you introduce me
to your roommate.
64
00:03:45,350 --> 00:03:46,518
Seriously?
65
00:03:46,601 --> 00:03:49,479
I wasn't scheduled
to come in until noon.
66
00:03:50,689 --> 00:03:52,107
Okay, fine.
67
00:03:52,190 --> 00:03:53,584
But I already told you.
You're not her type.
68
00:03:53,608 --> 00:03:56,111
How would she know
if she hasn't met me?
69
00:03:56,194 --> 00:03:57,487
You're impossible.
70
00:03:57,612 --> 00:04:00,282
Not impossible, just persistent.
71
00:04:07,998 --> 00:04:09,499
(whistling)
72
00:04:21,845 --> 00:04:23,221
Hey!
73
00:04:23,346 --> 00:04:26,391
‐Hey, it's Sheila Sugarplum.
‐In the flesh.
74
00:04:26,475 --> 00:04:28,143
That costume is so cute.
75
00:04:28,226 --> 00:04:30,896
Thanks. Whatcha making?
76
00:04:31,021 --> 00:04:32,689
Mmm, mm‐hmm.
77
00:04:32,773 --> 00:04:36,902
So, I got a weird call from
your boss just as I was leaving.
78
00:04:36,985 --> 00:04:38,028
Which one?
79
00:04:38,153 --> 00:04:39,488
Santa or the Mayor?
80
00:04:39,529 --> 00:04:41,281
I wish it was Santa.
81
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:43,325
Mmm. I was afraid of that.
82
00:04:43,408 --> 00:04:44,743
Do you know what it's about?
83
00:04:44,868 --> 00:04:47,454
I know he was in a
long budget meeting
84
00:04:47,537 --> 00:04:49,331
with the city council today.
85
00:04:49,414 --> 00:04:51,583
I only hear from him
when it's bad news,
86
00:04:51,708 --> 00:04:53,376
so I thought I'd make
him some cupcakes.
87
00:04:55,003 --> 00:04:58,131
Buttering up the mayor
is always a good idea.
88
00:04:58,215 --> 00:05:01,051
Sorry, though.
I wish I knew more.
89
00:05:01,134 --> 00:05:04,471
Okay, well, I shouldn't
be too late.
90
00:05:07,349 --> 00:05:09,810
Hey, don't worry.
91
00:05:09,893 --> 00:05:10,936
It's gonna be okay.
92
00:05:11,019 --> 00:05:12,187
Are you sure?
93
00:05:12,312 --> 00:05:16,608
Yeah, it's Christmas!
94
00:05:19,694 --> 00:05:21,613
Oh, by the way,
Trevor wants to meet you.
95
00:05:21,696 --> 00:05:22,781
Who?
96
00:05:22,864 --> 00:05:24,825
Trevor. The Zamboni
driver at the rink.
97
00:05:24,950 --> 00:05:26,159
Oh, why?
98
00:05:26,243 --> 00:05:27,494
Why not?
99
00:05:27,577 --> 00:05:30,038
Mmm‐mm. No. He's not my type.
100
00:05:30,121 --> 00:05:32,874
Well, how do you know
if you haven't met him yet?
101
00:05:32,958 --> 00:05:34,459
Oh, I know.
102
00:05:34,584 --> 00:05:37,337
Please? I owe him one.
103
00:05:41,007 --> 00:05:42,592
Fine.
104
00:05:42,676 --> 00:05:44,135
Good.
105
00:05:44,261 --> 00:05:45,741
I hope you don't have
too many criers.
106
00:05:45,846 --> 00:05:47,389
Yeah, me too.
107
00:05:47,514 --> 00:05:49,516
You know, you should
publish a book
108
00:05:49,641 --> 00:05:52,310
of crying babies with
Santa pictures.
109
00:05:52,435 --> 00:05:54,187
You might be on to something.
110
00:05:54,312 --> 00:05:56,147
That could really sell!
111
00:05:56,273 --> 00:05:57,816
All right, see you later.
112
00:05:57,899 --> 00:05:59,484
Bye.
113
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:01,820
(phone vibrates)
114
00:06:04,698 --> 00:06:06,366
Hey, Mom.
115
00:06:06,449 --> 00:06:08,159
Hello, sweetheart, how are you?
116
00:06:08,243 --> 00:06:09,619
I'm good. How's Santa Barbara?
117
00:06:09,703 --> 00:06:11,663
Oh, it's just lovely out here.
118
00:06:11,746 --> 00:06:13,456
Sunny and in the 70s today.
119
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:15,333
What I want to know is,
how do you get in
120
00:06:15,458 --> 00:06:16,918
the Christmas spirit
on the beach?
121
00:06:17,002 --> 00:06:19,546
You know how your father
and I hate the cold.
122
00:06:19,671 --> 00:06:21,298
Cold?
123
00:06:21,381 --> 00:06:22,924
Are you serious?
124
00:06:23,008 --> 00:06:24,902
How many days did you and Dad
spend with me at the rink
125
00:06:24,926 --> 00:06:26,344
when I was little?
126
00:06:26,469 --> 00:06:29,681
Oh, I know. We miss you, honey.
127
00:06:29,764 --> 00:06:31,158
Is there any chance
you could come out here
128
00:06:31,182 --> 00:06:33,310
for the holidays this year?
129
00:06:33,351 --> 00:06:36,730
It's my busiest time of year.
130
00:06:36,855 --> 00:06:38,773
I'll try to get out
there after New Years.
131
00:06:38,857 --> 00:06:40,650
Well, we love you, sweetheart.
132
00:06:40,775 --> 00:06:43,153
Whenever you can come,
we'd love to see you.
133
00:06:43,236 --> 00:06:44,362
I love you too, Mom.
134
00:06:44,487 --> 00:06:46,323
Okay, bye, sweetheart.
135
00:06:46,364 --> 00:06:47,574
Bye.
136
00:06:59,544 --> 00:07:01,338
[whispers] I don't have all day.
137
00:07:01,463 --> 00:07:02,797
Should just be a few minutes.
138
00:07:04,132 --> 00:07:05,717
Hey!
139
00:07:05,842 --> 00:07:06,927
Come here.
140
00:07:11,306 --> 00:07:12,390
You know who's in there?
141
00:07:12,515 --> 00:07:13,683
‐Who? ‐Noah Tremblay.
142
00:07:13,808 --> 00:07:15,310
Who?
143
00:07:15,393 --> 00:07:16,603
The hockey player.
144
00:07:16,686 --> 00:07:17,886
He played for the Maple Leafs.
145
00:07:17,979 --> 00:07:18,730
So?
146
00:07:18,855 --> 00:07:20,482
So he's kind of a big deal.
147
00:07:20,523 --> 00:07:22,567
I don't care if he's
Patrice Bergeron.
148
00:07:22,651 --> 00:07:24,653
I've got stuff to do.
149
00:07:24,778 --> 00:07:26,446
‐Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
‐Thank you.
150
00:07:26,529 --> 00:07:28,073
Oh... excuse me.
151
00:07:28,198 --> 00:07:29,407
I'm sorry.
152
00:07:29,532 --> 00:07:31,368
No, I'm sorry.
Here, let me help you.
153
00:07:31,493 --> 00:07:34,663
No, no, I got it. Here.
154
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:35,789
Thanks.
155
00:07:36,873 --> 00:07:38,333
Courtney.
156
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:40,293
I see you already
met Noah Tremblay.
157
00:07:40,418 --> 00:07:41,795
Ah... yes. Hello.
158
00:07:41,878 --> 00:07:43,630
Hi.
159
00:07:43,755 --> 00:07:46,091
Courtney runs the Skating Oval
in the park.
160
00:07:46,174 --> 00:07:48,551
Oh, yes, nice to meet you.
161
00:07:48,677 --> 00:07:49,886
You two have a lot in common.
162
00:07:50,011 --> 00:07:51,012
Really?
163
00:07:51,137 --> 00:07:52,639
Mm‐hmm, Noah just built
164
00:07:52,764 --> 00:07:56,309
the new indoor ice complex
in the canal district.
165
00:07:56,393 --> 00:07:58,812
They're going to have their
grand opening in a couple weeks.
166
00:07:58,895 --> 00:08:00,772
‐Right, Noah?
‐Yeah, that's right.
167
00:08:00,855 --> 00:08:01,855
Hmm.
168
00:08:01,940 --> 00:08:03,441
Well, you wanted to
see me Mr. Mayor?
169
00:08:03,525 --> 00:08:05,527
Yeah, come on in.
170
00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:07,654
‐Thank you. ‐Take care.
171
00:08:07,696 --> 00:08:10,490
I hope I bump into you
again, Courtney.
172
00:08:14,619 --> 00:08:16,788
‐Beth, would take care
of that for me?
‐Sure.
173
00:08:16,871 --> 00:08:18,748
If you can find a place
to work on that desk.
174
00:08:20,792 --> 00:08:23,962
I was impressed to hear about
your skating career in college.
175
00:08:24,045 --> 00:08:25,797
Thank you.
176
00:08:25,922 --> 00:08:28,550
State champion is
quite an accomplishment.
177
00:08:30,510 --> 00:08:31,386
Such a shame you got injured.
178
00:08:31,511 --> 00:08:32,929
It happens.
179
00:08:33,013 --> 00:08:34,848
I'm just glad I can
share the joy of skating
180
00:08:34,973 --> 00:08:36,016
with the kids now.
181
00:08:36,099 --> 00:08:38,643
Yes, well about that.
182
00:08:38,727 --> 00:08:40,162
We've been going over
the budget and the city
183
00:08:40,186 --> 00:08:43,398
is just not going to be able
to subsidize the cost
184
00:08:43,523 --> 00:08:45,233
of running the Skating Oval
any longer.
185
00:08:45,358 --> 00:08:46,693
What?
186
00:08:46,776 --> 00:08:49,988
But, rentals are up this year
187
00:08:50,030 --> 00:08:52,115
and I've been recruiting
more and more kids
188
00:08:52,198 --> 00:08:54,576
for the after school
skating program every day.
189
00:08:54,659 --> 00:08:58,288
That's nice, but
the Skating Oval is a luxury
190
00:08:58,371 --> 00:09:00,540
that the city just can't afford.
191
00:09:00,665 --> 00:09:02,459
But, Mr. Greenwood,
192
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:04,419
the skating means
so much to the kids
193
00:09:04,502 --> 00:09:06,212
and it's Christmas!
194
00:09:06,337 --> 00:09:08,089
Well, Noah's new
indoor ice complex
195
00:09:08,173 --> 00:09:10,633
is going to have all kinds
of programs for the kids.
196
00:09:10,717 --> 00:09:13,136
Have you seen it?
It's really very impressive.
197
00:09:13,261 --> 00:09:15,305
But that's not free.
198
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:16,948
What about the kids
who can't afford it?
199
00:09:17,015 --> 00:09:18,951
That's why we're going to
keep the Skating Oval open
200
00:09:18,975 --> 00:09:21,269
through the holidays
and then shut it down
201
00:09:21,352 --> 00:09:22,645
right after the new year.
202
00:09:24,022 --> 00:09:26,816
What about the Christmas
Carnival on Christmas Eve?
203
00:09:26,900 --> 00:09:29,861
That is exactly the
kind of event
204
00:09:29,944 --> 00:09:31,946
that makes the Skating Oval
unsustainable.
205
00:09:32,030 --> 00:09:34,449
You're cancelling the
Christmas Carnival?
206
00:09:34,532 --> 00:09:36,826
The kids will be heart broken.
207
00:09:36,951 --> 00:09:40,413
Running a city means making
tough choices, Ms. Bennett.
208
00:09:40,538 --> 00:09:42,832
With all due respect,
I think you're making
a mistake.
209
00:09:42,916 --> 00:09:45,460
The kids aside,
the Skating Oval represents
210
00:09:45,543 --> 00:09:47,796
a commitment
to revitalize downtown,
211
00:09:47,921 --> 00:09:50,715
to make the city more
accessible and family friendly.
212
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:53,468
If it closes that would
be a major step backward.
213
00:09:53,510 --> 00:09:57,097
The city council is
dead set on this.
214
00:09:57,180 --> 00:09:59,015
The numbers are the numbers.
215
00:09:59,099 --> 00:10:01,226
But you could convince
them otherwise.
216
00:10:01,309 --> 00:10:03,019
What would it take?
217
00:10:03,144 --> 00:10:04,896
Money.
218
00:10:04,979 --> 00:10:07,899
Make the Skating Oval
a revenue source for the city
219
00:10:08,024 --> 00:10:12,403
instead of a negative line item
that it is right now.
220
00:10:12,529 --> 00:10:13,947
So, how do we make that happen?
221
00:10:16,741 --> 00:10:19,327
A Christmas miracle.
222
00:10:19,410 --> 00:10:21,410
Okay, then I'll get to work
on a Christmas miracle.
223
00:10:25,667 --> 00:10:27,669
Merry Christmas, Mr. Greenwood.
224
00:10:30,255 --> 00:10:31,965
Merry Christmas.
225
00:10:44,769 --> 00:10:46,229
I can't believe
he's closing the Oval
226
00:10:46,312 --> 00:10:48,273
and cancelling
the Christmas Carnival.
227
00:10:48,356 --> 00:10:50,275
The kids look forward
to this all year long!
228
00:10:50,358 --> 00:10:51,985
It's not just the kids.
229
00:10:52,068 --> 00:10:55,572
This is the biggest event
for Santa and me every year.
230
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:56,948
Did you know about this?
231
00:10:57,031 --> 00:10:58,431
Did somebody call
to cancel you yet?
232
00:10:58,491 --> 00:11:01,119
No, I just assumed we were on.
233
00:11:01,202 --> 00:11:03,788
We've been doing the Christmas
Carnival for years.
234
00:11:03,872 --> 00:11:05,957
What am I going to do?
235
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,226
You're going to figure it out.
236
00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:08,585
But how?
237
00:11:08,668 --> 00:11:10,086
Come on,
238
00:11:10,170 --> 00:11:12,630
you've got to get those
competitive juices flowing.
239
00:11:12,714 --> 00:11:14,966
Fight for what you believe in.
240
00:11:15,091 --> 00:11:16,676
Is Santa looking
for another elf?
241
00:11:16,801 --> 00:11:18,445
Because I'm gonna be out
of a job next Christmas.
242
00:11:18,469 --> 00:11:19,949
Look. He told you
what you have to do.
243
00:11:20,013 --> 00:11:21,973
You need to find a way
to fund the rink
244
00:11:22,056 --> 00:11:23,951
and the carnival and take
the cost off his ledger.
245
00:11:23,975 --> 00:11:25,518
That's easier said than done.
246
00:11:25,602 --> 00:11:27,520
I didn't say it
was going to be easy.
247
00:11:27,645 --> 00:11:28,645
(store bell chimes)
248
00:11:28,688 --> 00:11:29,688
Hey.
249
00:11:29,731 --> 00:11:32,692
Oh, hi, Trevor.
250
00:11:32,817 --> 00:11:35,278
Beth this is Trevor.
Trevor, my roommate Beth.
251
00:11:35,361 --> 00:11:37,447
‐Hi. ‐Hi.
252
00:11:39,532 --> 00:11:41,117
I gotta go.
253
00:11:41,201 --> 00:11:43,661
I'll just leave you two
to get to know each other.
254
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:45,205
Have fun.
255
00:11:46,831 --> 00:11:48,231
[whispers]
What are you doing to me?
256
00:11:51,544 --> 00:11:53,338
So...
257
00:12:08,228 --> 00:12:10,188
That's her, Daddy.
258
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,264
(chuckles)
259
00:12:45,890 --> 00:12:48,476
Hi, Grace! You came back!
260
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,812
Hi, Courtney. This is my Dad.
261
00:12:50,937 --> 00:12:53,106
I'm Courtney Bennett.
262
00:12:53,189 --> 00:12:54,357
Oh, it's you!
263
00:12:54,482 --> 00:12:57,652
‐Yeah, we've met. ‐Yeah, we did.
264
00:12:57,735 --> 00:12:59,529
How could I forget.
265
00:12:59,654 --> 00:13:01,656
You skate beautifully.
266
00:13:01,781 --> 00:13:03,449
Thank you.
267
00:13:03,533 --> 00:13:05,761
I actually had the pleasure of
skating with Grace yesterday.
268
00:13:05,785 --> 00:13:07,996
So she said.
269
00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:09,664
Well, if she's interested,
270
00:13:09,747 --> 00:13:12,059
we have a beginner's class that
starts in about ten minutes.
271
00:13:12,083 --> 00:13:14,377
Really sweet group
of girls just her age.
272
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:15,670
We meet twice a week.
273
00:13:15,795 --> 00:13:17,672
How much does it cost?
274
00:13:17,755 --> 00:13:20,341
Nothing, actually. It's free.
275
00:13:20,466 --> 00:13:21,634
‐It's free? ‐Yeah.
276
00:13:21,759 --> 00:13:24,053
Can I Dad? Can I?
277
00:13:24,178 --> 00:13:25,555
So the city subsidizes it?
278
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:28,933
Yeah. Well, for now.
279
00:13:29,017 --> 00:13:30,935
Huh.
280
00:13:31,019 --> 00:13:34,188
Are you sure you want to take
skating lessons with Courtney?
281
00:13:34,314 --> 00:13:36,566
Yeah!
282
00:13:36,691 --> 00:13:38,985
Okay, great.
283
00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:41,195
Well, we'd love to
have you join our class.
284
00:13:41,321 --> 00:13:43,531
‐And I see you already
have skates.
‐Yup.
285
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:44,866
Why don't you go put them on?
286
00:13:44,991 --> 00:13:46,492
'Kay, but I need help
tying them.
287
00:13:46,617 --> 00:13:47,702
Sure, I'll be right there.
288
00:13:47,827 --> 00:13:48,995
Thank you.
289
00:13:51,831 --> 00:13:53,374
I've got a sign up
sheet in the shack.
290
00:13:58,171 --> 00:13:59,691
All right, so everyone's
in the circle.
291
00:13:59,756 --> 00:14:01,674
Perfect, make your circle.
292
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:03,509
And... yep, perfect.
293
00:14:03,634 --> 00:14:05,595
And then heels together.
294
00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:07,430
Great, and then arms.
295
00:14:07,513 --> 00:14:12,018
Start. You go up, and out.
296
00:14:12,101 --> 00:14:13,478
And then swizzle in.
297
00:14:13,603 --> 00:14:15,063
And then left arm.
298
00:14:15,188 --> 00:14:17,815
And then grab each
other's hands.
299
00:14:17,899 --> 00:14:19,209
Okay, you just undo the hooks
like this.
300
00:14:19,233 --> 00:14:20,651
Oh, okay.
301
00:14:20,735 --> 00:14:21,837
‐Then it's like
a regular shoe.
‐Oh.
302
00:14:21,861 --> 00:14:23,321
Courtney, thank you.
303
00:14:24,947 --> 00:14:26,491
Grace really had fun,
I could tell.
304
00:14:26,574 --> 00:14:27,784
She's a great kid.
305
00:14:27,867 --> 00:14:30,078
With real skating
potential, too.
306
00:14:30,203 --> 00:14:31,722
Yeah, I mean she just never
really showed
307
00:14:31,746 --> 00:14:32,973
much interest in
skating with me.
308
00:14:32,997 --> 00:14:34,665
You were a hockey player, right?
309
00:14:34,749 --> 00:14:35,833
That's right, yeah.
310
00:14:35,958 --> 00:14:37,311
I learned to skate
before I could walk.
311
00:14:37,335 --> 00:14:39,295
Maybe she's just
not interested in hockey.
312
00:14:40,588 --> 00:14:42,173
Maybe not.
313
00:14:42,256 --> 00:14:43,925
Well, Grace is doing
really well.
314
00:14:44,008 --> 00:14:45,760
She's a natural.
315
00:14:45,843 --> 00:14:47,470
Takes after her old man.
316
00:14:47,595 --> 00:14:49,514
Guess so.
317
00:14:49,597 --> 00:14:50,890
Well, I...
318
00:14:51,015 --> 00:14:52,809
guess we'll see you on Thursday.
319
00:14:52,892 --> 00:14:54,394
Sounds good.
Have a great evening.
320
00:14:54,477 --> 00:14:56,771
‐You, too. ‐Bye.
321
00:14:56,854 --> 00:14:59,732
Oh, Courtney, wait.
322
00:14:59,857 --> 00:15:01,401
I really had fun
at class, thank you.
323
00:15:01,526 --> 00:15:03,986
You're so welcome.
I'll see you next time!
324
00:15:04,070 --> 00:15:05,571
‐Yup! Bye. ‐Bye.
325
00:15:10,660 --> 00:15:12,286
‐Hi. ‐Hi.
326
00:15:12,370 --> 00:15:13,079
How was Trevor?
327
00:15:13,162 --> 00:15:14,580
You owe me big time!
328
00:15:14,705 --> 00:15:16,999
Oh, no, sorry.
329
00:15:17,041 --> 00:15:19,419
Eh, he's not actually
as bad as I expected.
330
00:15:20,461 --> 00:15:22,046
But, forget about Trevor.
331
00:15:22,171 --> 00:15:23,673
What was that all about?
332
00:15:23,798 --> 00:15:25,925
What, Noah?
333
00:15:26,008 --> 00:15:27,361
His daughter joined
my class today.
334
00:15:27,385 --> 00:15:29,637
Oh, so we're on a first
name basis already?
335
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,556
So...
336
00:15:31,639 --> 00:15:34,100
So, he's gorgeous, rich...
337
00:15:34,183 --> 00:15:36,185
And oh, right, single.
338
00:15:36,310 --> 00:15:38,980
And a typical jock,
full of himself.
339
00:15:39,063 --> 00:15:40,565
Okay... and that's a problem?
340
00:15:42,024 --> 00:15:43,424
Wonder what happened
to Grace's mom.
341
00:15:46,404 --> 00:15:47,655
So you are interested.
342
00:15:47,780 --> 00:15:49,657
Please.
343
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:52,410
He's only the most eligible
bachelor in Worcester.
344
00:15:52,493 --> 00:15:54,787
And, he owns the
indoor ice complex.
345
00:15:54,871 --> 00:15:57,271
He's the main reason why the
Oval is going to be closed down.
346
00:15:57,373 --> 00:16:00,084
Your boss was drooling over
that facility the other day.
347
00:16:00,168 --> 00:16:02,044
Ooh, hadn't thought of that.
348
00:16:03,296 --> 00:16:04,896
I'll introduce you
next time he comes by.
349
00:16:04,922 --> 00:16:07,383
Nah, I, uh...
350
00:16:07,508 --> 00:16:10,595
I'm going out to dinner
with Trevor tomorrow night.
351
00:16:10,678 --> 00:16:12,972
Oh, you are?
352
00:16:13,097 --> 00:16:15,141
I figured I'd give him a chance.
353
00:16:15,224 --> 00:16:17,059
So, I owe you why?
354
00:16:17,185 --> 00:16:19,604
Okay, see ya!
I gotta go make some kids cry.
355
00:16:19,687 --> 00:16:21,272
Okay.
356
00:16:56,849 --> 00:16:58,893
(sighs)
357
00:16:59,018 --> 00:17:01,354
(chattering)
358
00:17:38,015 --> 00:17:39,642
(shouting on hockey rink)
359
00:17:57,702 --> 00:17:59,245
Oh, hi.
360
00:17:59,370 --> 00:18:00,955
What a nice surprise.
361
00:18:01,038 --> 00:18:02,290
Hi.
362
00:18:02,373 --> 00:18:03,666
Um...
363
00:18:03,791 --> 00:18:06,544
I can't believe I haven't
been in here before.
364
00:18:06,627 --> 00:18:08,546
It's incredible.
365
00:18:08,671 --> 00:18:09,922
Well, thank you, yeah.
366
00:18:10,006 --> 00:18:11,799
I thought you weren't open yet.
367
00:18:11,924 --> 00:18:14,385
Oh, a couple of local skaters
and teams needed some ice time,
368
00:18:14,468 --> 00:18:16,846
so I gave them a
little soft opening
369
00:18:16,929 --> 00:18:19,015
before the big unveiling
in a few weeks.
370
00:18:19,098 --> 00:18:20,850
Hmm.
371
00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:22,810
How can I compete with this?
372
00:18:22,935 --> 00:18:24,604
Excuse me?
373
00:18:24,687 --> 00:18:26,147
How can I compete with this?
374
00:18:26,230 --> 00:18:28,232
Hey, hey, hold up.
375
00:18:28,357 --> 00:18:30,276
Hold on.
What are you talking about?
376
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,362
You're not even open yet
and this place is bustling
with activity.
377
00:18:33,487 --> 00:18:36,282
There's athletes,
their families, their coaches.
378
00:18:36,365 --> 00:18:38,909
Restaurants, a coffee shop!
379
00:18:38,993 --> 00:18:40,786
You don't have
to compete with this.
380
00:18:40,870 --> 00:18:42,371
Apparently I do!
381
00:18:42,496 --> 00:18:44,665
The Mayor wants
to close us down.
382
00:18:44,749 --> 00:18:47,209
‐He said that? ‐Yes.
383
00:18:47,335 --> 00:18:49,795
"The Skating Oval is a luxury
the city can't afford."
384
00:18:49,879 --> 00:18:51,756
Huh.
385
00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:54,109
It's the centerpiece
of the Worcester's
recreational offerings
386
00:18:54,133 --> 00:18:55,968
and it's right downtown.
387
00:18:56,052 --> 00:18:57,112
Have you ever skated out there?
388
00:18:57,136 --> 00:18:58,971
No, actually I haven't.
389
00:18:59,055 --> 00:19:03,559
Nothing beats skating outdoors,
especially at Christmastime!
390
00:19:03,643 --> 00:19:07,188
I've certainly done
my fair share of
outdoor skating.
391
00:19:07,271 --> 00:19:09,148
Then you know.
392
00:19:09,273 --> 00:19:11,400
Yeah, I do.
393
00:19:13,194 --> 00:19:16,322
Well, I hope I wasn't
intruding by stopping by.
394
00:19:16,405 --> 00:19:18,783
Not at all. Come by anytime.
395
00:19:20,159 --> 00:19:21,827
Hey, Noah.
396
00:19:21,952 --> 00:19:23,663
If you have this whole complex,
397
00:19:23,788 --> 00:19:26,624
why do you bring Grace
to the Oval for lessons?
398
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,920
Well, uh...
399
00:19:31,003 --> 00:19:32,797
she chose it.
400
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:33,881
Really?
401
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:36,926
Yeah.
402
00:19:37,009 --> 00:19:38,636
She chose it because of you.
403
00:19:51,023 --> 00:19:52,441
Nice, girls.
404
00:19:57,863 --> 00:19:58,906
Gracie!
405
00:20:01,033 --> 00:20:03,494
Daddy, look!
I can skate backwards.
406
00:20:03,577 --> 00:20:05,871
That is wonderful sweetheart.
407
00:20:10,042 --> 00:20:11,210
Hello, Noah.
408
00:20:11,335 --> 00:20:13,003
Hi. Look at that,
409
00:20:13,129 --> 00:20:14,547
she's skating backwards!
410
00:20:14,672 --> 00:20:16,590
I know, she's making
great progress.
411
00:20:16,674 --> 00:20:18,217
Yeah, she sure is.
412
00:20:18,300 --> 00:20:21,345
Hey, I had something
I wanted to discuss with you.
413
00:20:21,429 --> 00:20:24,140
Maybe you have time for a
coffee, after you're done?
414
00:20:24,265 --> 00:20:26,267
Oh, um, today?
415
00:20:26,350 --> 00:20:27,643
Yeah, why not.
416
00:20:27,727 --> 00:20:29,812
No time like the present, right?
417
00:20:29,937 --> 00:20:32,440
Uh... yeah, okay.
418
00:20:32,523 --> 00:20:33,858
Great.
419
00:20:35,192 --> 00:20:36,736
All right, girls
let's do the star.
420
00:20:39,196 --> 00:20:41,407
Nice. Nice!
421
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:51,876
So, what do you do in
the summers when
there's no ice?
422
00:20:51,959 --> 00:20:54,462
I run the kids sailing
program down at the lake.
423
00:20:54,545 --> 00:20:57,214
Do your parents ever ask you
when you're getting a real job?
424
00:20:57,339 --> 00:20:59,759
Excuse me?
425
00:20:59,842 --> 00:21:01,343
I'm kidding...
426
00:21:01,469 --> 00:21:03,888
That's a great compliment to
what you do in the winter.
427
00:21:06,015 --> 00:21:07,308
Thank you.
428
00:21:07,433 --> 00:21:09,643
Meanwhile, I'm working
on my Masters.
429
00:21:09,727 --> 00:21:10,978
Really? In what?
430
00:21:11,103 --> 00:21:12,563
Education.
431
00:21:12,688 --> 00:21:14,774
That's perfect for you.
You're a natural teacher.
432
00:21:16,609 --> 00:21:19,487
So, what did you
want to talk about?
433
00:21:19,612 --> 00:21:22,490
Well, I was really impressed
with the way
434
00:21:22,531 --> 00:21:23,824
you interacted with the kids.
435
00:21:23,949 --> 00:21:25,576
Wow, thanks.
436
00:21:25,701 --> 00:21:28,204
And Grace has really
taken to you.
437
00:21:28,329 --> 00:21:29,663
I mean...
438
00:21:29,747 --> 00:21:32,541
Haven't seen her light up
like that...
439
00:21:32,666 --> 00:21:35,628
about anything for... forever.
440
00:21:36,504 --> 00:21:38,339
She's a great kid.
441
00:21:38,464 --> 00:21:40,341
So I want to offer you a job.
442
00:21:42,051 --> 00:21:44,136
Wait, what?
443
00:21:44,261 --> 00:21:46,931
Yeah, I want you to
teach skating for me.
444
00:21:48,182 --> 00:21:50,476
Okay... I didn't
see that coming.
445
00:21:52,144 --> 00:21:54,688
Well? What do you think?
446
00:21:57,525 --> 00:21:59,318
I see what you're doing.
447
00:21:59,443 --> 00:22:01,153
You're trying to
eliminate the competition.
448
00:22:01,237 --> 00:22:03,405
No, that's not what
I'm doing, really.
449
00:22:03,531 --> 00:22:04,841
Here's the thing.
I already have a job.
450
00:22:04,865 --> 00:22:06,158
And I only have a couple weeks
451
00:22:06,283 --> 00:22:07,618
to figure out a plan to save it.
452
00:22:07,701 --> 00:22:11,455
Yeah, right, this is
a year 'round position.
453
00:22:12,873 --> 00:22:15,543
As long as you're not
trying to sabotage me...
454
00:22:15,668 --> 00:22:18,420
I'm not trying to sabotage you.
455
00:22:18,504 --> 00:22:20,172
Maybe we could work together
456
00:22:20,297 --> 00:22:22,675
to figure out a way
to save the Oval.
457
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,593
Okay, what did you have in mind?
458
00:22:24,677 --> 00:22:26,428
Either we raise a lot of money
459
00:22:26,512 --> 00:22:28,712
or we convince the city that
it's in their best interest
460
00:22:28,764 --> 00:22:30,015
not to close it.
461
00:22:30,140 --> 00:22:31,809
‐Or both. ‐Exactly.
462
00:22:31,934 --> 00:22:34,353
I bet those are things
you're pretty good at.
463
00:22:34,436 --> 00:22:35,813
That's interesting.
464
00:22:35,896 --> 00:22:38,774
Do you have a business plan
or a proposal doc?
465
00:22:38,858 --> 00:22:40,234
Not yet.
466
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:41,711
I only just heard
of the mayor's plans.
467
00:22:41,735 --> 00:22:43,821
The problem is we
don't have much time.
468
00:22:43,904 --> 00:22:46,490
‐Right, how much do
you need to raise?
‐I'm working on the budget
469
00:22:46,615 --> 00:22:50,035
and how much it costs
to run the rink each year.
470
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,330
What do you think?
Would you be willing to help?
471
00:22:53,455 --> 00:22:55,332
Okay, way to ask for the order.
472
00:22:55,374 --> 00:22:57,214
I should have offered
you a job in group sales!
473
00:22:59,295 --> 00:23:00,754
This is important to me.
474
00:23:04,091 --> 00:23:05,091
I can see that.
475
00:23:07,887 --> 00:23:10,347
Okay, um...
476
00:23:10,472 --> 00:23:13,267
Let me take a look
at the numbers.
477
00:23:13,350 --> 00:23:15,477
Fair enough.
478
00:23:15,561 --> 00:23:17,481
Let me do some homework
and I'll get back to you.
479
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:33,746
(sniffling)
480
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,793
Are you crying?
481
00:23:39,919 --> 00:23:41,503
Yeah, so?
482
00:23:41,629 --> 00:23:43,881
Oh, you're so sappy.
483
00:23:43,964 --> 00:23:45,841
I can't help it.
484
00:23:45,966 --> 00:23:48,052
I love Christmas movies.
485
00:23:49,929 --> 00:23:51,972
What's up?
486
00:23:52,056 --> 00:23:55,017
Well... Noah's not as
bad as I thought.
487
00:23:55,142 --> 00:23:56,602
Oh, you saw him again?
488
00:23:56,685 --> 00:23:58,604
He invited me for coffee.
489
00:23:58,687 --> 00:24:01,273
Ooh, coffee. Trouble.
490
00:24:01,357 --> 00:24:03,192
I think I'm in over my head.
491
00:24:03,317 --> 00:24:04,526
Wow, already?
492
00:24:04,652 --> 00:24:06,820
Not with Noah. With the Oval.
493
00:24:06,946 --> 00:24:08,864
Oh. How?
494
00:24:08,989 --> 00:24:11,158
I need a business plan, stat.
495
00:24:11,241 --> 00:24:12,660
Okay.
496
00:24:12,785 --> 00:24:14,620
Do you know how
to write a business plan?
497
00:24:14,703 --> 00:24:17,247
As a matter of fact, I do.
498
00:24:17,373 --> 00:24:19,041
‐Really. ‐Yeah.
499
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:21,585
How do you think Santa and
I got our start up funding?
500
00:24:21,669 --> 00:24:23,671
How'd you learn how to do that?
501
00:24:23,796 --> 00:24:24,796
YouTube.
502
00:24:24,838 --> 00:24:26,966
You can learn
anything on YouTube.
503
00:24:27,049 --> 00:24:28,509
No kidding?
504
00:24:28,634 --> 00:24:31,512
Can YouTube help me find out
how much it costs the city
505
00:24:31,637 --> 00:24:32,930
to operate the Oval each year
506
00:24:33,013 --> 00:24:35,766
including the
Christmas Carnival?
507
00:24:35,849 --> 00:24:38,602
No, probably not, but
it's all public record.
508
00:24:38,686 --> 00:24:41,021
So I can just dig
it out tomorrow.
509
00:24:41,146 --> 00:24:42,564
Piece of cake.
510
00:24:42,690 --> 00:24:45,859
‐Thank you. ‐Mm‐hmm, sure.
511
00:24:45,985 --> 00:24:47,778
Okay.
512
00:24:47,861 --> 00:24:49,822
He offered me a job, you know.
513
00:24:49,905 --> 00:24:52,241
Oh, that's nice.
514
00:24:52,324 --> 00:24:53,617
You might need one.
515
00:24:54,576 --> 00:24:57,079
Okay, now can I watch my movie?
516
00:24:57,204 --> 00:24:58,789
Yeah, what's happened so far?
517
00:24:58,872 --> 00:25:01,166
Ugh, I can't even tell you
or I'll start to cry.
518
00:25:02,209 --> 00:25:03,293
It's that sad.
519
00:25:03,377 --> 00:25:04,586
So bad.
520
00:25:04,670 --> 00:25:06,338
‐Do you want one? ‐No.
521
00:25:06,463 --> 00:25:07,673
‐Pre‐emptive? ‐No.
522
00:25:10,092 --> 00:25:11,969
Hi, returning?
523
00:25:12,052 --> 00:25:15,472
All right. Have a good one,
see you soon.
524
00:25:24,023 --> 00:25:25,274
(phone vibrating)
525
00:25:29,194 --> 00:25:30,946
Hey.
526
00:25:31,030 --> 00:25:33,824
So, with set up and breakdown
costs in the Fall and Spring,
527
00:25:33,949 --> 00:25:36,618
the off‐season storage of
the boards and the Zamboni,
528
00:25:36,702 --> 00:25:38,954
maintaining the ice,
refrigeration, electricity,
529
00:25:39,038 --> 00:25:41,165
your salary and
Trevor's it looks like
530
00:25:41,206 --> 00:25:45,419
the Skating Oval costs the
city about $135,000 a year.
531
00:25:45,502 --> 00:25:47,212
Wow.
532
00:25:47,296 --> 00:25:50,132
And that doesn't even count the
cost of the Christmas Carnival.
533
00:25:50,257 --> 00:25:51,759
Nope.
534
00:25:51,842 --> 00:25:54,303
The cost to decorate
the Commons is $25,000.
535
00:25:54,428 --> 00:25:56,930
Well, they have
to do that anyway.
536
00:25:57,014 --> 00:25:58,307
True.
537
00:26:01,351 --> 00:26:03,270
Hello?
538
00:26:03,353 --> 00:26:04,480
You there?
539
00:26:04,605 --> 00:26:06,857
‐It's him. ‐Who?
540
00:26:06,982 --> 00:26:09,151
It's Noah.
541
00:26:09,234 --> 00:26:11,361
And he's carrying his skates.
542
00:26:11,487 --> 00:26:14,198
Oh, really?
543
00:26:14,281 --> 00:26:16,200
‐Talk later. ‐Okay, bye.
544
00:26:17,618 --> 00:26:19,244
‐Hi. ‐Hi.
545
00:26:19,328 --> 00:26:20,871
What are you doing here?
546
00:26:20,954 --> 00:26:24,875
Well, I actually haven't
skated outside
since I was a kid
547
00:26:24,958 --> 00:26:27,044
playing shinny hockey
with my friends.
548
00:26:27,169 --> 00:26:28,170
You're kidding, really!?
549
00:26:28,295 --> 00:26:29,671
Yeah.
550
00:26:29,797 --> 00:26:31,673
So you got me intrigued.
551
00:26:31,799 --> 00:26:33,634
How much for
a lunch break skate?
552
00:26:33,759 --> 00:26:37,805
Without rentals?
$5.00 for an hour.
553
00:26:37,888 --> 00:26:38,931
Okay.
554
00:26:41,016 --> 00:26:42,851
Great.
555
00:26:42,976 --> 00:26:45,354
Would you, um...
would you care to join me?
556
00:26:46,438 --> 00:26:50,984
Um... okay, sure.
557
00:26:52,569 --> 00:26:53,737
Great.
558
00:26:54,613 --> 00:26:55,864
I'll see you out there.
559
00:26:58,700 --> 00:27:00,077
Wow, this is great.
560
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,679
I can't believe I haven't
done this before.
561
00:27:01,703 --> 00:27:03,330
Isn't it great?
562
00:27:03,455 --> 00:27:05,249
It's wonderful.
563
00:27:05,374 --> 00:27:07,584
So did you think about my offer?
564
00:27:08,544 --> 00:27:10,003
I thought I made it clear
565
00:27:10,087 --> 00:27:12,548
I'm not really looking
for a job right now.
566
00:27:12,673 --> 00:27:14,842
Okay. No pressure.
567
00:27:16,844 --> 00:27:19,805
You know, your passion
is pretty contagious.
568
00:27:19,847 --> 00:27:21,306
Where does that come from?
569
00:27:21,431 --> 00:27:23,934
I was a pretty competitive
skater when I was younger.
570
00:27:24,017 --> 00:27:25,394
I heard.
571
00:27:25,519 --> 00:27:26,436
Massachusetts state champ?
572
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:27,646
Yeah.
573
00:27:27,729 --> 00:27:29,606
I almost made the US Team,
574
00:27:29,690 --> 00:27:30,983
but then I blew out my knee.
575
00:27:31,108 --> 00:27:34,194
So now I share my love
of skating with the kids.
576
00:27:34,319 --> 00:27:35,588
Yeah. How'd you wreck your knee?
577
00:27:35,612 --> 00:27:37,656
Playing soccer.
578
00:27:37,781 --> 00:27:39,032
‐Ooh. ‐Yeah.
579
00:27:39,158 --> 00:27:41,285
My skating coach was really mad.
580
00:27:41,368 --> 00:27:44,454
I rehabbed it like crazy,
but as soon as I got back
out on the ice,
581
00:27:44,538 --> 00:27:46,248
it just wasn't the same.
582
00:27:46,331 --> 00:27:49,376
It was 90% there, but
I lost my trust in it.
583
00:27:49,501 --> 00:27:52,004
Yeah, I know what you mean.
584
00:27:52,129 --> 00:27:54,298
I'm a member of
the torn ACL club myself.
585
00:27:54,423 --> 00:27:56,341
Is that why you
quit playing hockey?
586
00:27:56,466 --> 00:27:58,218
Yeah. Exactly.
587
00:27:58,343 --> 00:28:00,804
I had the surgery,
588
00:28:00,888 --> 00:28:03,724
and my knee just was
never the same.
589
00:28:05,058 --> 00:28:07,227
I think it was in my head.
590
00:28:07,352 --> 00:28:09,730
I just, I lost my edge.
591
00:28:09,855 --> 00:28:11,315
Literally and figuratively.
592
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,566
Ha!
593
00:28:12,691 --> 00:28:14,443
Oh, look who's here.
594
00:28:15,861 --> 00:28:17,237
She's really sweet,
by the way...
595
00:28:17,362 --> 00:28:18,614
Grace's baby‐sitter.
596
00:28:18,697 --> 00:28:20,049
‐What's her name?
‐Yeah, she is. Margaret.
597
00:28:20,073 --> 00:28:21,366
I couldn't do it without her.
598
00:28:21,491 --> 00:28:23,327
Single parenting
is pretty tough.
599
00:28:23,452 --> 00:28:26,580
I can't imagine.
What happened to Grace's mom?
600
00:28:26,705 --> 00:28:30,209
We lost her five years ago.
601
00:28:30,334 --> 00:28:33,629
Oh, I'm so sorry.
602
00:28:33,712 --> 00:28:35,797
‐Hi‐ya. ‐Hi.
603
00:28:35,923 --> 00:28:37,507
Hi, sweetheart. How was school?
604
00:28:37,633 --> 00:28:39,009
Good... Hi, Courtney!
605
00:28:39,134 --> 00:28:40,320
Hi Grace, you ready for class?
606
00:28:40,344 --> 00:28:41,637
Yeah!
607
00:28:41,762 --> 00:28:42,822
Why don't you
put on your skates?
608
00:28:42,846 --> 00:28:44,806
‐Okay. ‐Get out here.
609
00:28:44,890 --> 00:28:46,016
Would you mind helping her?
610
00:28:46,141 --> 00:28:47,226
Thank you.
611
00:28:49,811 --> 00:28:51,313
She's pretty awesome.
612
00:29:10,999 --> 00:29:15,045
I had no idea the city wanted
to close down the Skating Oval.
613
00:29:15,170 --> 00:29:16,922
That's a shame.
614
00:29:17,005 --> 00:29:19,800
I know. Which is
why I'm looking
for sponsorships
615
00:29:19,883 --> 00:29:22,219
to help underwrite
the cost of operating
the rink.
616
00:29:22,344 --> 00:29:25,389
They're still going to have
the Christmas Carnival, I hope.
617
00:29:25,514 --> 00:29:27,891
I hope, but that's why
we need to raise money.
618
00:29:28,016 --> 00:29:29,434
Can I put you down for a pledge?
619
00:29:29,518 --> 00:29:31,061
Of course.
620
00:29:31,186 --> 00:29:34,147
I'd be more than happy to
give $100 toward the cause.
621
00:29:34,231 --> 00:29:35,857
$100?
622
00:29:35,983 --> 00:29:38,360
Yes, absolutely.
What do I get for that?
623
00:29:38,485 --> 00:29:39,611
An ad in the program?
624
00:29:39,695 --> 00:29:42,823
Uh, a quarter page ad.
625
00:29:42,948 --> 00:29:45,450
Oh, great. That's great.
626
00:29:45,534 --> 00:29:46,827
Well, thank you.
627
00:29:46,952 --> 00:29:48,036
Great, thank you.
628
00:29:48,161 --> 00:29:49,454
You have a nice day, all right?
629
00:29:49,538 --> 00:29:50,789

What do you think?
642
00:30:55,354 --> 00:30:56,354
What was I thinking?
643
00:30:56,396 --> 00:30:57,689
This is futile.
644
00:30:57,814 --> 00:31:00,317
Even if I spent
months to prepare,
645
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,570
there is no way
I'm going to raise $135,000.
646
00:31:03,653 --> 00:31:05,364
Well, you can't
give up so easily.
647
00:31:05,489 --> 00:31:07,324
Yes, I think I can.
648
00:31:07,449 --> 00:31:09,284
How much did you raise?
649
00:31:09,368 --> 00:31:12,704
$250... in pledges.
650
00:31:12,829 --> 00:31:15,040
Ooh. That's not so good.
651
00:31:15,123 --> 00:31:16,917
No! It's terrible.
652
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,960
I need a whole new plan.
653
00:31:20,921 --> 00:31:22,464
We'll figure this out.
654
00:31:22,547 --> 00:31:25,842
Why doesn't the city see
the value in the Skating Oval?
655
00:31:25,926 --> 00:31:27,366
I think it's like
Mr. Greenwood said,
656
00:31:27,469 --> 00:31:28,970
it's just a budget thing.
657
00:31:29,096 --> 00:31:33,100
C'mon... in the scheme of things
this is not a huge line item.
658
00:31:33,183 --> 00:31:35,143
The city must spend
lots of money on things
659
00:31:35,227 --> 00:31:37,646
much more frivolous
than the Skating Oval.
660
00:31:37,729 --> 00:31:39,398
Yeah.
661
00:31:44,903 --> 00:31:46,571
You know what?
662
00:31:46,696 --> 00:31:50,242
I'm gonna get you a copy
of the city's entire
operating budget.
663
00:31:50,367 --> 00:31:53,745
Ooh, could you?
'Cause that would
be really helpful.
664
00:31:53,870 --> 00:31:55,205
Yeah, sure.
665
00:31:55,330 --> 00:31:58,333
It would give me
some really good ammo.
666
00:31:58,417 --> 00:32:01,503
We need to get your
boss to fight for us.
667
00:32:01,628 --> 00:32:04,131
‐What's his soft spot?
‐I don't think he has one.
668
00:32:04,214 --> 00:32:06,716
Everyone has a soft spot.
Especially at Christmas.
669
00:32:06,842 --> 00:32:10,595
What's his?
670
00:32:10,679 --> 00:32:13,515
I'll find it. I promise.
671
00:32:23,358 --> 00:32:25,485
Well?
672
00:32:25,569 --> 00:32:29,656
Well, I think you're right,
it's ambitious.
673
00:32:29,781 --> 00:32:31,241
I know.
674
00:32:31,366 --> 00:32:33,994
Unless we find a true angel,
we just don't have time.
675
00:32:34,119 --> 00:32:35,596
See, I think that's
the biggest challenge.
676
00:32:35,620 --> 00:32:39,583
Because otherwise the
proposal makes sense.
677
00:32:39,708 --> 00:32:43,253
Well, I've already thought
about how we could take
a whole different tack.
678
00:32:43,336 --> 00:32:44,588
Really?
679
00:32:44,671 --> 00:32:46,381
I was wondering...
680
00:32:46,506 --> 00:32:49,134
Since you seem to know
the mayor pretty well,
681
00:32:49,259 --> 00:32:52,137
would you mind talking
to him on my behalf?
682
00:32:52,262 --> 00:32:54,973
He needs to hear how
much the community
loves the Skating Oval
683
00:32:55,056 --> 00:32:57,017
and he's being such a Scrooge.
684
00:32:57,100 --> 00:32:59,311
Yes, I mean, I do know
him pretty well.
685
00:32:59,436 --> 00:33:01,021
He can be a grump,
686
00:33:01,146 --> 00:33:03,565
but he's not a bad guy
when you get to know him.
687
00:33:03,690 --> 00:33:05,775
What would be the angle?
688
00:33:05,859 --> 00:33:08,278
We appeal to his sense
of charity
689
00:33:08,361 --> 00:33:09,863
and giving at Christmastime.
690
00:33:09,946 --> 00:33:12,073
Melt ol' Ebenezer's cold heart.
691
00:33:12,199 --> 00:33:14,576
Yeah, something like that.
692
00:33:14,701 --> 00:33:16,345
You could be my Jacob Marley
and forewarn him
693
00:33:16,369 --> 00:33:18,914
of the doom and gloom that
will befall the city
694
00:33:18,997 --> 00:33:21,500
if he doesn't keep
the Skating Oval open.
695
00:33:21,583 --> 00:33:24,544
Look, honestly, I don't think
that's the right approach.
696
00:33:24,669 --> 00:33:26,004
Why not?
697
00:33:26,129 --> 00:33:27,797
Because Calvin looks
at my facility
698
00:33:27,881 --> 00:33:31,051
like a shining star in the
revitalization of the city.
699
00:33:31,176 --> 00:33:33,136
It's an economic engine
700
00:33:33,220 --> 00:33:36,806
that provides jobs and
adds to the tax base.
701
00:33:36,932 --> 00:33:38,183
He's all about the money.
702
00:33:38,308 --> 00:33:39,702
But it shouldn't just
be about the money.
703
00:33:39,726 --> 00:33:41,978
No, it shouldn't.
704
00:33:42,062 --> 00:33:43,480
We have to show him
how many people
705
00:33:43,563 --> 00:33:45,482
in the city love the Oval!
706
00:33:45,565 --> 00:33:46,983
But How?
707
00:33:48,860 --> 00:33:51,530
I'm thinking
a Christmas card campaign.
708
00:33:53,156 --> 00:33:55,134
We spread the word and get
as many people as possible
709
00:33:55,158 --> 00:33:56,618
to write him a Christmas card
710
00:33:56,701 --> 00:33:58,787
telling him how much the
Skating Oval means to them.
711
00:33:58,870 --> 00:34:00,372
See, now you're talking!
712
00:34:00,455 --> 00:34:02,499
Let's bury his desk
in Christmas cards!
713
00:34:02,624 --> 00:34:04,167
Okay, I'll reach out to
the community,
714
00:34:04,251 --> 00:34:05,961
and mine will be the first.
715
00:34:06,044 --> 00:34:08,004
I'll tell him how
disappointed Grace will be.
716
00:34:09,839 --> 00:34:11,049
Thank you, Noah.
717
00:34:11,132 --> 00:34:12,759
I'm so grateful for your help.
718
00:34:12,842 --> 00:34:14,344
You're welcome.
719
00:34:14,469 --> 00:34:19,307
But now I have a favor
to ask of you.
720
00:34:19,432 --> 00:34:21,476
Okay...
721
00:34:21,601 --> 00:34:25,480
Grace and I are going
to get our Christmas tree
this weekend.
722
00:34:25,564 --> 00:34:28,233
And she specifically asked
if you'd like to join us.
723
00:34:28,358 --> 00:34:29,484
Really?
724
00:34:29,526 --> 00:34:31,945
She hasn't really had
a strong female presence
725
00:34:32,028 --> 00:34:34,155
in her life so much
726
00:34:35,824 --> 00:34:37,450
and she really likes you.
727
00:34:37,534 --> 00:34:39,494
That's so sweet.
728
00:34:39,578 --> 00:34:42,455
I told her Christmas was
a family time,
729
00:34:42,539 --> 00:34:46,126
and maybe you have other plans.
730
00:34:46,251 --> 00:34:48,461
Well, my folks
are in California.
731
00:34:48,545 --> 00:34:51,131
They're not
coming back this year.
732
00:34:51,256 --> 00:34:55,969
Okay, so, maybe you
would like to join us?
733
00:34:56,094 --> 00:34:58,680
Is this Grace asking? Or you?
734
00:35:02,559 --> 00:35:03,602
It's me.
735
00:35:07,731 --> 00:35:09,441
I'd love to.
736
00:35:18,408 --> 00:35:22,203
Oh, wonderful.
Thank you, thank you.
737
00:35:22,329 --> 00:35:25,999
Hey, before you leave, we're
trying to save the Oval.
738
00:35:26,082 --> 00:35:28,001
So send the mayor
a Christmas car,
739
00:35:28,126 --> 00:35:29,753
it could really
make a difference.
740
00:35:29,836 --> 00:35:31,504
Thanks, bye.
741
00:35:32,756 --> 00:35:35,050
Oh, hey are you
looking to rent skates?
742
00:35:35,175 --> 00:35:38,094
Perfect. Well, until then,
let me give you this.
743
00:35:38,178 --> 00:35:39,471
I'm trying to save the Oval,
744
00:35:39,554 --> 00:35:41,473

a Christmas card.

Hey, Sheila Sugarplum,
my undercover elf.
794
00:38:50,787 --> 00:38:52,247
Any scoops?
795
00:38:52,330 --> 00:38:54,582
Yeah, so, he got about
20 Christmas cards today.
796
00:38:54,707 --> 00:38:57,627
‐Not bad. ‐No, not at all.
797
00:38:57,752 --> 00:39:00,129
He was definitely half puzzled,
half intrigued.
798
00:39:00,255 --> 00:39:02,715
Well, okay, that's good I guess.
799
00:39:02,799 --> 00:39:04,092
We'll see.
800
00:39:04,175 --> 00:39:06,553
Remember, even if you
change his mind,
801
00:39:06,678 --> 00:39:08,113
he still has to
convince the City Council.
802
00:39:08,137 --> 00:39:10,223
Okay, well, one step at a time.
803
00:39:10,306 --> 00:39:13,893
And, um, there's a photo
of a girl in his office.
804
00:39:14,018 --> 00:39:15,645
I'll send it to you.
805
00:39:15,770 --> 00:39:17,438
She's outside in the picture
806
00:39:17,522 --> 00:39:19,107
and she's got skates
over her shoulder.
807
00:39:19,190 --> 00:39:21,985
Really? Who is she?
808
00:39:22,068 --> 00:39:23,528
That could be his soft spot.
809
00:39:23,611 --> 00:39:25,113
Yeah, that's what
I was thinking.
810
00:39:25,196 --> 00:39:26,489
He says it's his daughter.
811
00:39:26,573 --> 00:39:29,409
I know he's divorced because
his ex‐wife calls
812
00:39:29,534 --> 00:39:31,286
once in a while and
announces the fact
813
00:39:31,369 --> 00:39:34,163
that she's his ex pretty
definitively.
814
00:39:34,289 --> 00:39:35,832
Well, that's great.
815
00:39:35,957 --> 00:39:37,393
Let me know if you
learn anything more.
816
00:39:37,417 --> 00:39:38,918
Okay, will do.
817
00:39:39,002 --> 00:39:40,128
Thanks, Sheila!
818
00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:41,588

I thought Grace might
get a kick out of her.
832
00:40:55,328 --> 00:40:56,555
The one who works for the Mayor?
833
00:40:56,579 --> 00:40:58,998
One and the same.

836
00:41:03,127 --> 00:41:05,129
Nice outfit. What're you doing?
837
00:41:05,254 --> 00:41:07,090
‐Helping Beth. ‐I can see that.
838
00:41:07,173 --> 00:41:08,893
Just picking up a
few shifts here and there.
839
00:41:08,925 --> 00:41:10,593
Don't worry, I'll be
there for you.
840
00:41:10,677 --> 00:41:13,471
I'm not worried,
I'm just amused.
841
00:41:13,554 --> 00:41:17,058
By the way,
that suit is adorable.
842
00:41:18,559 --> 00:41:21,813
Whoa, it's so cool!
843
00:41:21,896 --> 00:41:23,481
Grace, this is my
roommate Beth, er...
844
00:41:23,564 --> 00:41:25,441
‐Sheila Sugarplum. ‐Hi, Grace.
845
00:41:25,525 --> 00:41:27,276
You want a photo with Santa?
846
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,004
Sure. I already wrote
him a letter, though.
847
00:41:29,028 --> 00:41:29,946
So he knows what I want.
848
00:41:30,029 --> 00:41:31,572
Smart.
849
00:41:31,698 --> 00:41:33,908
And this is her Dad.
850
00:41:34,033 --> 00:41:35,344
Very pleased to make your
acquaintance, once again.
851
00:41:35,368 --> 00:41:37,870
Nice to meet you, Sheila.
852
00:41:37,996 --> 00:41:39,765
Courtney, come on, let's
get a picture with Santa.
853
00:41:39,789 --> 00:41:40,873
Okay.
854
00:41:41,749 --> 00:41:44,293
Oh, you guys, so cute.
855
00:41:44,419 --> 00:41:46,879
I love it! So good!
856
00:41:47,005 --> 00:41:48,965
One more, perfect.
857
00:41:49,090 --> 00:41:51,676
Thank you, Santa.
858
00:41:51,801 --> 00:41:54,637
Grace, Courtney and I
are going to see if we
can find a tree.
859
00:41:54,721 --> 00:41:56,431
Do you mind helping
Sheila for a minute?
860
00:41:56,514 --> 00:41:59,142
‐Yes. ‐Yes, great.
861
00:41:59,225 --> 00:42:01,519
Okay, so we are going
to help our next customers.
862
00:42:01,602 --> 00:42:03,479
But you guys have
a Merry Christmas
863
00:42:03,604 --> 00:42:05,481
and, um, stay off
the naughty list!
864
00:42:05,606 --> 00:42:06,899
(giggles)
865
00:42:07,025 --> 00:42:08,484
Hi, you ready?
866
00:42:08,609 --> 00:42:09,902
Thank you.
867
00:42:10,028 --> 00:42:13,322
All right, tell Santa
what you want.
868
00:42:13,448 --> 00:42:15,992
It's not been until
this very moment
869
00:42:16,117 --> 00:42:20,580
I felt like I could actually
be in the Christmas spirit.
870
00:42:20,663 --> 00:42:22,165
So you feel it now?
871
00:42:22,290 --> 00:42:23,791
Yeah.
872
00:42:23,875 --> 00:42:26,961
For the first time in
a long time.
873
00:42:27,086 --> 00:42:28,963
I feel it, too.
874
00:42:29,088 --> 00:42:32,800
What was your Christmas
tradition as a kid?
875
00:42:32,925 --> 00:42:37,555
We had a heavy skating theme for
our Christmas tree decorations.
876
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,265
Ours was hockey.
877
00:42:39,348 --> 00:42:40,767
Not surprising.
878
00:42:42,185 --> 00:42:43,311
What do you and Grace do?
879
00:42:45,313 --> 00:42:50,651
Well, besides the giant blow‐up
Santa on the front lawn?
880
00:42:50,777 --> 00:42:52,236
You have a giant blow‐up Santa?
881
00:42:52,361 --> 00:42:55,948
Yes, we do. Grace's choice.
882
00:42:57,533 --> 00:42:58,826
How can I say no?
883
00:42:58,910 --> 00:43:00,995
What do the neighbors
say about that?
884
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:02,955
They're good sports.
885
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:06,918
But I mean asides from that,
we're pretty traditional.
886
00:43:08,836 --> 00:43:10,546
Grace likes gingerbread men.
887
00:43:10,671 --> 00:43:13,466
Gingerbread people...
888
00:43:13,508 --> 00:43:16,719
So we make cookie ornaments
for the tree.
889
00:43:16,844 --> 00:43:19,972
And we decorate them
like her and I,
890
00:43:20,098 --> 00:43:23,851
Oma, Ompa, aunts, and uncles.
891
00:43:26,312 --> 00:43:28,064
And Mom?
892
00:43:29,357 --> 00:43:31,651
Yeah, Mom too.
893
00:43:31,776 --> 00:43:33,861
She's actually the angel
on the top of our tree.
894
00:43:36,030 --> 00:43:39,367
Oh, wow.
895
00:43:41,661 --> 00:43:44,163
I'm sorry. That is so touching.
896
00:43:44,205 --> 00:43:45,998
Don't apologize.
897
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,043
It gets me too.
898
00:43:50,294 --> 00:43:52,547
It was Grace's idea.
899
00:43:52,672 --> 00:43:55,049
It was?
900
00:43:55,174 --> 00:43:56,217
Yeah.
901
00:43:57,677 --> 00:44:00,721
How does she handle it?
Not having her mom around.
902
00:44:02,223 --> 00:44:04,684
She's a trouper.
903
00:44:04,809 --> 00:44:07,645
I think she mostly remembers
the memories I tell her
904
00:44:07,728 --> 00:44:09,355
and the pictures I have.
905
00:44:12,024 --> 00:44:15,611
That's how we keep
her alive, in our hearts.
906
00:44:19,323 --> 00:44:21,593
We don't have to talk about it
if it makes you uncomfortable.
907
00:44:21,617 --> 00:44:23,161
No, no.
908
00:44:24,203 --> 00:44:25,788
No, it's good.
909
00:44:26,789 --> 00:44:29,292
Honestly, I, um...
910
00:44:30,501 --> 00:44:33,546
I haven't had anyone
911
00:44:33,629 --> 00:44:36,299
I felt comfortable talking to.
912
00:44:36,382 --> 00:44:37,383
Really?
913
00:44:40,303 --> 00:44:41,304
Yeah, until now.
914
00:44:49,187 --> 00:44:52,064
You guys, I found
a perfect tree!
915
00:44:52,190 --> 00:44:54,275
‐Oh, you did? ‐Yeah, come here.
916
00:44:54,358 --> 00:44:56,152

So good.
927
00:45:35,358 --> 00:45:39,195
So do you save the Christmas
ornaments every year?
928
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:42,949
We tried that one year
and a mouse ate them.
929
00:45:43,032 --> 00:45:46,494
What? Must have been
one happy mouse!
930
00:45:46,577 --> 00:45:48,996
It was a big mess.
931
00:45:49,121 --> 00:45:50,748
I'll bet!
932
00:45:50,873 --> 00:45:52,226
We'll have to make
you this year, Courtney.

Really?
934
00:45:54,085 --> 00:45:56,295
I thought it was just family.

00:45:56,420 --> 00:45:58,965
Family and special people.

00:46:00,758 --> 00:46:04,929

You deserve it.
948
00:46:50,224 --> 00:46:54,228
And then I'll put me
right next to you.
949
00:46:58,399 --> 00:47:01,319
And Daddy on the other side.

00:47:03,070 --> 00:47:05,072
Out of the mouths of babes.
951
00:47:06,198 --> 00:47:08,075
‐What's that mean Daddy?
‐Nothing.
952
00:47:10,494 --> 00:47:13,205
We're going to have a
Merry Christmas this year.
953
00:47:13,331 --> 00:47:15,499
I can feel it.
954
00:47:15,583 --> 00:47:17,543
Me too, sweetheart.
955
00:47:17,668 --> 00:47:18,794
Me too.
956
00:47:19,628 --> 00:47:23,549
Oh, and we have Mom.
957
00:47:23,674 --> 00:47:25,509
Our angel.
958
00:47:25,634 --> 00:47:27,345
Our angel.
959
00:47:27,470 --> 00:47:29,764
‐Let me. ‐Okay.
960
00:47:29,847 --> 00:47:34,143
Three, two, one, blastoff!
961
00:47:34,226 --> 00:47:35,936
There you go.
962
00:48:02,213 --> 00:48:03,381
What's this?
963
00:48:05,383 --> 00:48:06,777
Well, you've been getting
so many Christmas cards
964
00:48:06,801 --> 00:48:08,636
I thought I would display a few.
965
00:48:08,677 --> 00:48:09,887
A few?
966
00:48:10,012 --> 00:48:11,305
Yeah. There's a bunch more here.
967
00:48:11,389 --> 00:48:13,391
Guess a lot of people
just want to wish you
968
00:48:13,516 --> 00:48:14,636
a Merry Christmas this year.
969
00:48:17,478 --> 00:48:18,478
Take these down.
970
00:48:18,521 --> 00:48:20,940
‐But sir... ‐Now!
971
00:48:23,692 --> 00:48:25,194
Well, humbug to you too.
972
00:48:32,410 --> 00:48:34,537
Hey. Here he comes.
973
00:48:43,796 --> 00:48:44,797
Courtney!
974
00:48:44,922 --> 00:48:46,424
Oh, Mr. Greenwood.
975
00:48:46,507 --> 00:48:48,193
You're just the person
I was looking to talk to.
976
00:48:48,217 --> 00:48:50,886
Well, then this
is fortuitous timing.
977
00:48:51,011 --> 00:48:52,138
What's the meaning of this?
978
00:48:52,263 --> 00:48:53,973
Excuse me, I'm not
sure I understand?
979
00:48:54,056 --> 00:48:56,308
I'm being flooded
with Christmas cards.
980
00:48:56,434 --> 00:48:57,893
How nice.
981
00:48:58,018 --> 00:49:00,729
And all of them say
"I want to save the Oval".
982
00:49:00,855 --> 00:49:02,273
Who have you been talking to?
983
00:49:02,356 --> 00:49:03,816
I may have mentioned
to a few people
984
00:49:03,899 --> 00:49:05,001
that the city wants
to shut it down.
985
00:49:05,025 --> 00:49:06,444
Oh, that's very nice,
986
00:49:06,527 --> 00:49:08,447
but it won't change the fact
that we can't afford
987
00:49:08,487 --> 00:49:09,655
to keep it running.
988
00:49:09,780 --> 00:49:11,782
We'll see.
989
00:49:11,866 --> 00:49:14,010
And what're you doing
with all those kids
out there this morning?
990
00:49:14,034 --> 00:49:16,620
I already told you
the Christmas Carnival
is not happening.
991
00:49:16,704 --> 00:49:19,832
I'm still counting on my
Christmas miracle, Mr. Mayor.
992
00:49:19,915 --> 00:49:21,333
Mr. Greenwood!
993
00:49:21,459 --> 00:49:22,978
Rena Blackstone from
the Telegram & Gazette.
994
00:49:23,002 --> 00:49:24,503
Yes, of course, Rena, hi.
995
00:49:24,587 --> 00:49:26,964
Is it true that you are
thinking of pulling
996
00:49:27,047 --> 00:49:28,799
the city's funding
for the Skating Oval?
997
00:49:28,883 --> 00:49:32,136
I'm not prepared to talk about
the city's budget issues.
998
00:49:32,219 --> 00:49:34,346
Right at the moment,
that's a work in progress.
999
00:49:34,472 --> 00:49:36,974
Well, we had a report
that you've received
1000
00:49:37,057 --> 00:49:39,351
more than 1000 Christmas
cards from citizens
1001
00:49:39,435 --> 00:49:41,395
who all want to
save the Skating Oval.
1002
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:42,980
Do you care to comment?
1003
00:49:43,063 --> 00:49:44,648
Well, I can't confirm the number
1004
00:49:44,732 --> 00:49:47,067
but we have received quite
a lot of Christmas cards.
1005
00:49:47,193 --> 00:49:48,694
We do every Christmas.
1006
00:49:48,819 --> 00:49:53,240
But were they specifically
supporting the Skating Oval?
1007
00:49:53,365 --> 00:49:55,159
As a matter of fact
some of them are.
1008
00:49:55,242 --> 00:49:56,922
I was just discussing
that with Ms. Bennett
1009
00:49:56,994 --> 00:50:01,207
who as I'm sure
you know runs the Oval.
1010
00:50:01,332 --> 00:50:03,751
Are those some of
the cards there?
1011
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,896
This is a PR nightmare.
1012
00:50:24,021 --> 00:50:25,290
We're just trying to
run the city
1013
00:50:25,314 --> 00:50:26,649
in a responsible way
and now this!
1014
00:50:28,484 --> 00:50:30,819
You gotta admit,
it's a pretty clever idea.
1015
00:50:30,903 --> 00:50:32,655
I don't care how clever it is.
1016
00:50:32,738 --> 00:50:35,282
Bottom line is
we can't afford it.
1017
00:50:35,366 --> 00:50:38,118
Have you ever skated out there?
It's pretty special.
1018
00:50:38,202 --> 00:50:41,664
No. And I don't intend to.
1019
00:50:41,705 --> 00:50:44,166
I'm not going to let some
figure skater make me look bad.
1020
00:50:45,251 --> 00:50:47,378
Might be a bit late for that.
1021
00:50:52,424 --> 00:50:55,302
Well, that's why
I need your help.
1022
00:50:55,427 --> 00:50:57,304
We got to save some face here,
1023
00:50:57,388 --> 00:50:59,682
we got to throw the Carnival.
1024
00:50:59,807 --> 00:51:01,183
Great, happy to help.
1025
00:51:01,267 --> 00:51:03,936
I want you to do it
at your place.
1026
00:51:04,019 --> 00:51:05,312
No, no, wait a minute...
1027
00:51:05,396 --> 00:51:07,147
No, it's going to be great.
1028
00:51:07,189 --> 00:51:10,317
A huge celebration as part
of your grand opening!
1029
00:51:12,069 --> 00:51:14,071
You can absorb the cost, right?
1030
00:51:15,864 --> 00:51:17,324
Aye, good man. Thank you.
1031
00:51:19,577 --> 00:51:22,079
Yeah, he's in there right now...
1032
00:51:22,162 --> 00:51:23,642
I'll let you know
if I learn anything.
1033
00:51:24,248 --> 00:51:28,127
Yeah. Gotta go. Bye.
1034
00:51:28,168 --> 00:51:29,712
‐Bye, Noah. ‐Bye, Beth.
1035
00:51:33,173 --> 00:51:34,717
That was weird.
1036
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,679
You ready, girls?
1037
00:51:38,762 --> 00:51:39,972
Yeah.
1038
00:51:40,055 --> 00:51:41,724
Has anybody seen Grace?
1039
00:51:45,686 --> 00:51:47,730
Well, let's get out there.
1040
00:51:47,855 --> 00:51:49,064
Have fun.
1041
00:51:53,902 --> 00:51:56,447
(chuckling)
1042
00:52:00,326 --> 00:52:02,661
‐Hey! ‐Hi. What's this?
1043
00:52:02,786 --> 00:52:04,163
I took your advice.
1044
00:52:04,246 --> 00:52:05,873
I'm putting together a book.
1045
00:52:05,998 --> 00:52:08,709
‐Crying babies with Santa?
‐Mm‐hmm.
1046
00:52:08,834 --> 00:52:10,794
Remember my uncle who
runs a publishing company?
1047
00:52:10,878 --> 00:52:12,963
Yeah, so I told him
the idea and he loves it.
1048
00:52:13,047 --> 00:52:14,840
Oh my gosh, that's brilliant!
1049
00:52:14,923 --> 00:52:16,425
You're gonna sell
millions of these.
1050
00:52:16,508 --> 00:52:18,010
I hope so!
1051
00:52:18,135 --> 00:52:21,472
And I want to donate half the
proceeds to the Skating Oval.
1052
00:52:21,555 --> 00:52:25,017
Beth, that is ridiculously
generous of you,
1053
00:52:25,142 --> 00:52:27,144
and absolutely not necessary.
1054
00:52:27,269 --> 00:52:28,896
Get your book published first.
1055
00:52:29,021 --> 00:52:31,023
We'll figure this out.
1056
00:52:31,106 --> 00:52:33,108
Here's one for you.
1057
00:52:35,903 --> 00:52:39,156
Oh, it's so cute. Thank you.
1058
00:52:39,198 --> 00:52:41,367
Yeah. Oh, so by the way.
1059
00:52:41,492 --> 00:52:43,077
I was looking at the
city's budget today
1060
00:52:43,202 --> 00:52:44,328
and noticed something.
1061
00:52:44,453 --> 00:52:45,871
What?
1062
00:52:45,996 --> 00:52:47,766
The Skating Oval's funding
falls under Parks and
Recreation.
1063
00:52:47,790 --> 00:52:49,166
That makes sense.
1064
00:52:49,249 --> 00:52:51,293
And the Parks and Rec
budget is pretty tight.
1065
00:52:51,335 --> 00:52:52,878
I can see why
they're looking to cut.
1066
00:52:53,003 --> 00:52:54,630
Yeah.
1067
00:52:54,755 --> 00:52:58,384
But, there is a separate line
item for memorials and statues.
1068
00:52:58,509 --> 00:52:59,343
Really...
1069
00:52:59,468 --> 00:53:01,470
And there's a surplus right now.
1070
00:53:01,553 --> 00:53:03,972
Guess we haven't been erecting
any war memorials recently.
1071
00:53:04,056 --> 00:53:07,309
Huh. Good to know.
1072
00:53:07,434 --> 00:53:08,310
Mm‐hmm.
1073
00:53:08,435 --> 00:53:10,938
And then there's something else.
1074
00:53:11,021 --> 00:53:13,899
It's probably nothing, but
1075
00:53:13,982 --> 00:53:16,777
Noah was really cold when he
left the Mayor's office today.
1076
00:53:16,860 --> 00:53:18,362
Cold?
1077
00:53:18,487 --> 00:53:20,906
Yeah, like he barely
even acknowledged me.
1078
00:53:21,031 --> 00:53:22,658
That's strange.
1079
00:53:22,700 --> 00:53:25,160
I know. Like I said,
it's probably nothing.
1080
00:53:25,244 --> 00:53:26,995
Grace wasn't at
class today, either.
1081
00:53:27,121 --> 00:53:28,664
Really?
1082
00:53:28,747 --> 00:53:30,749
Yeah.
1083
00:53:30,874 --> 00:53:32,167
Hmm.
1084
00:54:02,531 --> 00:54:05,617
Hi, this is Noah, you know
what to do after the beep.
1085
00:54:05,701 --> 00:54:06,869
(phone beeps)
1086
00:54:06,994 --> 00:54:08,662
Hi, it's me, Courtney.
1087
00:54:08,787 --> 00:54:10,831
Missed you and Grace
at class today.
1088
00:54:10,956 --> 00:54:14,460
Just wanted to make
sure everything is okay...
1089
00:54:14,585 --> 00:54:16,211
Okay, bye.
1090
00:54:17,838 --> 00:54:19,548
Hey.
1091
00:54:19,673 --> 00:54:21,067
Hey, so what's up with
the Christmas Carnival?
1092
00:54:21,091 --> 00:54:22,634
You tell me.
1093
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:24,654
I just got a call from
somebody at Noah's Ice Center
1094
00:54:24,678 --> 00:54:27,556
about booking me and Santa
there, not at the Oval.
1095
00:54:27,681 --> 00:54:28,599
What?!
1096
00:54:28,682 --> 00:54:29,767
(mutters)
1097
00:54:57,836 --> 00:54:59,421
Hey! Noah!
1098
00:54:59,505 --> 00:55:01,507
What the heck is this?
1099
00:55:03,091 --> 00:55:04,903
I've been meaning to talk
to you about that, Courtney.
1100
00:55:04,927 --> 00:55:06,220
How could you?
1101
00:55:06,345 --> 00:55:07,822
I thought we were
getting kind of close.
1102
00:55:07,846 --> 00:55:09,723
I thought maybe I meant
something to you.
1103
00:55:09,848 --> 00:55:11,350
We were, you do.
1104
00:55:11,475 --> 00:55:12,702
Then why would you agree to hold
1105
00:55:12,726 --> 00:55:14,686
the Christmas Carnival
at your place?
1106
00:55:14,812 --> 00:55:15,997
Because the Mayor asked me to.
1107
00:55:16,021 --> 00:55:16,897
You betrayed me.
1108
00:55:17,022 --> 00:55:18,232
No, Courtney.
1109
00:55:18,315 --> 00:55:19,584
Understand, I didn't betray you.
1110
00:55:19,608 --> 00:55:21,044
How could I possibly
understand that?
1111
00:55:21,068 --> 00:55:22,694
You don't know the whole story.
1112
00:55:22,820 --> 00:55:24,196
And why is that Noah?
1113
00:55:24,279 --> 00:55:26,323
Because I haven't
told it to you.
1114
00:55:28,617 --> 00:55:32,079
This job and that Skating Oval
mean the world to me.
1115
00:55:32,204 --> 00:55:33,831
And it breaks my heart
to think that kids
1116
00:55:33,914 --> 00:55:36,375
like Grace won't have
a chance to enjoy it.
1117
00:55:36,458 --> 00:55:37,668
Courtney, listen...
1118
00:55:37,793 --> 00:55:40,379
‐Goodbye, Noah.
‐Please, Courtney.
1119
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,577
(gasps)
1120
00:56:19,001 --> 00:56:20,711
(sighs)
1121
00:56:22,004 --> 00:56:23,839
Courtney?
1122
00:56:23,964 --> 00:56:25,340
Is that you?
1123
00:56:27,009 --> 00:56:29,845
Courtney... Hey!
1124
00:56:29,928 --> 00:56:31,763
Courtney!
1125
00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:34,600
Are you all right?
1126
00:56:34,683 --> 00:56:37,269
I'm fine. It's just my knee.
1127
00:56:37,352 --> 00:56:38,520
Ooh, um...
1128
00:56:38,645 --> 00:56:41,023
Here, let me help you up.
1129
00:56:42,858 --> 00:56:44,484
Oof.
1130
00:56:44,610 --> 00:56:47,279
Oh, that looks...
1131
00:56:47,362 --> 00:56:48,464
Yeah, here, get you
arm around me.
1132
00:56:48,488 --> 00:56:50,407
‐Thank you. ‐Yeah.
1133
00:56:50,532 --> 00:56:52,743
‐How's it feel? ‐Oh! Not good.
1134
00:56:52,868 --> 00:56:55,495
Okay. I'll get you
to a hospital.
1135
00:56:55,579 --> 00:56:56,779
No, no, no, just take me home.
1136
00:56:56,872 --> 00:56:58,498
‐Really? ‐Yeah. I'll be fine.
1137
00:56:58,582 --> 00:57:00,626
I can't deal with
the hospital right now.
1138
00:57:00,709 --> 00:57:01,585
Okay.
1139
00:57:01,668 --> 00:57:03,045
Oh!
1140
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:10,636
(door opens)
1141
00:57:16,141 --> 00:57:17,976
Hey, sunshine!
1142
00:57:18,101 --> 00:57:19,311
‐Hi. ‐How'd you sleep?
1143
00:57:19,436 --> 00:57:21,021
I'm not sure I did.
1144
00:57:21,146 --> 00:57:23,065
You did.
1145
00:57:23,190 --> 00:57:25,609
I got you an MRI appointment
for later this afternoon.
1146
00:57:25,692 --> 00:57:29,196
Whoa. How'd you do that so fast?
What time is it?
1147
00:57:29,321 --> 00:57:30,864
Well, it's almost noon and
it helps
1148
00:57:30,989 --> 00:57:32,658
when you call
from the Mayor's office.
1149
00:57:32,741 --> 00:57:33,909
Noon?
1150
00:57:34,034 --> 00:57:36,161
Oh, my goodness.
I guess I did sleep.
1151
00:57:36,244 --> 00:57:38,914
Yeah. How's the knee feel?
1152
00:57:39,039 --> 00:57:40,624
Like a balloon.
1153
00:57:40,707 --> 00:57:42,187
Oh, honey.
I'll get you some more ice.
1154
00:57:44,503 --> 00:57:47,381
Trevor was so sweet
to bring me home last night.
1155
00:57:47,506 --> 00:57:49,549
Did I hear somebody say my name?
1156
00:57:49,675 --> 00:57:52,511
Oh, good morning Trevor.
1157
00:57:53,553 --> 00:57:55,931
It's the afternoon.
1158
00:57:56,014 --> 00:57:57,014
Right.
1159
00:58:00,018 --> 00:58:01,061
Oh.
1160
00:58:02,187 --> 00:58:04,189
Oh, you might
not want to see that.
1161
00:58:04,314 --> 00:58:05,983
I've already read it.
1162
00:58:06,066 --> 00:58:08,986
I guess we know why
he was ghosting you.
1163
00:58:09,111 --> 00:58:10,278
How could he do this?
1164
00:58:10,362 --> 00:58:12,739
He knows what this means to me.
1165
00:58:12,864 --> 00:58:14,658
My guess is that
he didn't have a choice.
1166
00:58:14,741 --> 00:58:17,077
Of course he had a choice.
You always have a choice.
1167
00:58:18,704 --> 00:58:20,622
‐Wait a sec? ‐What?
1168
00:58:20,706 --> 00:58:23,083
If Trevor is here,
who is at the Oval?
1169
00:58:23,208 --> 00:58:24,710
I closed it for the day.
1170
00:58:24,835 --> 00:58:27,004
‐What!?
‐You were in no shape
to go to work.
1171
00:58:27,129 --> 00:58:28,588
What should I have done?
1172
00:58:28,672 --> 00:58:31,883
That's exactly what they want!
A closed rink.
1173
00:58:33,260 --> 00:58:34,803
Where do you think
you are going?
1174
00:58:34,886 --> 00:58:36,346
To work.
1175
00:58:36,471 --> 00:58:38,765
Wait. Take your ice!
1176
00:58:42,269 --> 00:58:43,895
Thanks for the lift.
1177
00:58:44,771 --> 00:58:46,690
So what exactly did they say?
1178
00:58:46,815 --> 00:58:49,943
It was just an MRI technician.
1179
00:58:50,027 --> 00:58:51,695
Yeah, and...
1180
00:58:51,820 --> 00:58:53,697
We won't know anything
until my doctor
1181
00:58:53,822 --> 00:58:56,616
‐takes a look at it next week.
‐Ugh. Well, how's it feel?
1182
00:58:56,700 --> 00:58:59,494
Like I twisted it.
It's going to be fine.
1183
00:58:59,578 --> 00:59:01,997
You athletes are
so stubbornly stoic.
1184
00:59:02,122 --> 00:59:05,333
Your leg could be falling
off and you'd be like...
1185
00:59:05,417 --> 00:59:09,171
Mm‐mm, put me
in coach, I'm fine.
1186
00:59:09,296 --> 00:59:10,505
Yeah, so?
1187
00:59:12,799 --> 00:59:15,635
So are you sure
you want to do this?
1188
00:59:15,719 --> 00:59:17,679
What? Go to Noah's house?
1189
00:59:17,804 --> 00:59:18,930
No.
1190
00:59:19,014 --> 00:59:22,059
But give Grace her present, yes.
1191
00:59:31,985 --> 00:59:34,404
Just wait here. I won't be long.
1192
00:59:34,529 --> 00:59:35,947
I'm not going anywhere.
1193
00:59:41,203 --> 00:59:42,829
‐Got it? ‐Yeah.
1194
00:59:58,470 --> 00:59:59,805
Oh, Courtney! Hi!
1195
00:59:59,930 --> 01:00:02,182
Hi, Grace.
I've missed you at class.
1196
01:00:02,265 --> 01:00:03,558
Me, too!
1197
01:00:03,683 --> 01:00:05,477
What happened? Are you okay?
1198
01:00:05,602 --> 01:00:07,646
Oh, I'm fine, thanks.
1199
01:00:07,729 --> 01:00:08,855
Dad! Courtney's here.
1200
01:00:08,980 --> 01:00:10,565
Come on in.
1201
01:00:17,948 --> 01:00:21,159
I really just stopped
by to give you this.
1202
01:00:21,284 --> 01:00:22,577
Thanks.
1203
01:00:22,702 --> 01:00:24,746
Should I open it now?
1204
01:00:29,251 --> 01:00:32,045
No. No, you should wait
until Christmas day.
1205
01:00:33,046 --> 01:00:35,966
Hey, Courtney.
What happened. You okay?
1206
01:00:36,049 --> 01:00:37,634
I'm fine.
1207
01:00:37,759 --> 01:00:39,879
I just stopped by to give
Grace her Christmas present.
1208
01:00:39,928 --> 01:00:41,805
We really miss her at class.
1209
01:00:41,888 --> 01:00:43,014
Can I go back, Dad?
1210
01:00:45,392 --> 01:00:47,102
We're still rehearsing
1211
01:00:47,185 --> 01:00:48,812
even though it looks
like there won't be
1212
01:00:48,937 --> 01:00:50,313
any Christmas Carnival
at the Oval.
1213
01:00:50,438 --> 01:00:52,774
No Carnival?
1214
01:00:52,858 --> 01:00:55,986
No, the city moved
it to your Dad's place.
1215
01:00:56,111 --> 01:00:58,488
We can't we do
the show at the Oval?
1216
01:00:58,572 --> 01:00:59,906
I'm afraid not.
1217
01:01:00,824 --> 01:01:02,659
Not unless your Dad and I can
1218
01:01:02,784 --> 01:01:04,244
get the Mayor to reconsider.
1219
01:01:04,369 --> 01:01:06,788
Dad, I'll talk to him.
1220
01:01:06,872 --> 01:01:08,748
Unfortunately,
it's a little late.
1221
01:01:08,874 --> 01:01:10,667
I'm sorry, sweetheart.
1222
01:01:10,750 --> 01:01:12,419
Please Dad, let me talk to him.
1223
01:01:12,502 --> 01:01:14,629
I want to do
the show at the Oval.
1224
01:01:15,797 --> 01:01:17,465
I really tried.
1225
01:01:17,549 --> 01:01:19,801
I'm sorry.
1226
01:01:19,885 --> 01:01:22,387
Merry Christmas, Grace.
1227
01:01:30,228 --> 01:01:32,397
Merry Christmas, Courtney.
1228
01:01:37,652 --> 01:01:40,739
Hey. How'd it go?
1229
01:01:44,951 --> 01:01:46,203
Go.
1230
01:01:46,328 --> 01:01:47,662
You okay?
1231
01:01:47,746 --> 01:01:48,955
Just go, please.
1232
01:02:01,676 --> 01:02:03,720
Who is this girl?
1233
01:02:03,845 --> 01:02:07,140
That's the girl from
Mayor Greenwood's office.
1234
01:02:07,224 --> 01:02:08,224
That's his daughter.
1235
01:02:08,266 --> 01:02:09,601
Exactly.
1236
01:02:09,684 --> 01:02:11,895
What's the same photo
doing in Noah's house?
1237
01:02:12,020 --> 01:02:12,896
It is?
1238
01:02:13,021 --> 01:02:14,898
Yeah, right in the front hall.
1239
01:02:15,023 --> 01:02:16,500
I don't know how
I never noticed it before.
1240
01:02:16,524 --> 01:02:19,778
‐That's weird. ‐Right?
1241
01:02:19,861 --> 01:02:23,990
And wait a second, Grace said
she could talk to the Mayor.
1242
01:02:24,074 --> 01:02:26,409
She did?
1243
01:02:26,534 --> 01:02:29,329
And what does Ompa mean?
1244
01:02:29,412 --> 01:02:31,206
Ompa?
1245
01:02:31,331 --> 01:02:33,291
Yeah, I remember
When I first met Grace
1246
01:02:33,375 --> 01:02:36,795
she said that her Ompa
worked for the city.
1247
01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:40,382
I think it's a
pet name for Grandpa.
1248
01:02:44,803 --> 01:02:46,763
Do a Google search
of images of Noah.
1249
01:02:46,846 --> 01:02:49,641
See if anything comes up.
1250
01:02:49,766 --> 01:02:52,560
There are a bunch of
him playing hockey...
1251
01:02:52,686 --> 01:02:55,438
Oh, wait a second.
That must be his wife.
1252
01:02:55,522 --> 01:02:57,667
He doesn't have any pictures
of his wife in their house?
1253
01:02:57,691 --> 01:02:59,401
He must, I just
didn't look closely.
1254
01:02:59,526 --> 01:03:01,152
Figured it was private.
1255
01:03:01,278 --> 01:03:02,737
Plus a little awkward.
1256
01:03:05,699 --> 01:03:08,285
She looks kind of like
the girl in the photo.
1257
01:03:11,246 --> 01:03:12,414
Yeah, she does...
1258
01:03:12,539 --> 01:03:14,332
Wait a sec.
1259
01:03:19,004 --> 01:03:20,422
Oh, my goodness. That's it.
1260
01:03:20,505 --> 01:03:22,632
What?
1261
01:03:22,716 --> 01:03:24,592
We were right.
1262
01:03:24,676 --> 01:03:26,845
What? Show me.
1263
01:03:26,970 --> 01:03:28,596
She was the Mayor's daughter.
1264
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:29,597
Which makes Noah...
1265
01:03:29,681 --> 01:03:31,141
The mayor's son‐in‐law
1266
01:03:31,224 --> 01:03:33,643
and Grace is the
Mayor's grand‐daughter.
1267
01:03:33,768 --> 01:03:35,979
Oh wow...
1268
01:03:36,021 --> 01:03:37,439
It all makes total sense.
1269
01:03:37,522 --> 01:03:38,940
It sure does.
1270
01:03:41,860 --> 01:03:44,487
She died of Melanoma.
1271
01:03:44,612 --> 01:03:47,324
Melanoma? Oh, that's awful.
1272
01:03:49,909 --> 01:03:51,328
So what do we do now?
1273
01:03:57,917 --> 01:03:59,669
Your daughter, Mr. Mayor.
1274
01:03:59,794 --> 01:04:02,464
Thank you.
1275
01:04:02,589 --> 01:04:04,466
Melanoma runs in my family, too.
1276
01:04:06,176 --> 01:04:07,677
Listen, I appreciate
your concern
1277
01:04:07,802 --> 01:04:10,013
but what is this all about?
1278
01:04:11,056 --> 01:04:13,433
I can't believe
I just figured it out...
1279
01:04:13,516 --> 01:04:15,977
why you didn't fight
harder to save the Oval.
1280
01:04:16,061 --> 01:04:18,164
Why you're moving
the Christmas Carnival
to Noah's place.
1281
01:04:18,188 --> 01:04:20,148
I fought as hard as I could.
1282
01:04:20,231 --> 01:04:21,775
The bottom line
is the bottom line.
1283
01:04:21,858 --> 01:04:23,985
We can't afford it.
1284
01:04:25,737 --> 01:04:28,198
I saw the same photo
at Noah's house.
1285
01:04:30,283 --> 01:04:33,828
So, what, are you going
to sic your reporter friend
1286
01:04:33,912 --> 01:04:35,112
from the Telegram on me again?
1287
01:04:35,205 --> 01:04:37,040
Call it rampant nepotism?
1288
01:04:37,123 --> 01:04:38,583
No, Mr. Mayor, no.
1289
01:04:42,629 --> 01:04:47,300
Losing Sarah was
the hardest thing
1290
01:04:47,384 --> 01:04:49,594
I've ever had to face
in my entire life.
1291
01:04:52,180 --> 01:04:54,641
I'm so sorry, Mr. Greenwood.
1292
01:04:54,766 --> 01:04:56,142
I really am.
1293
01:04:59,687 --> 01:05:02,065
She was an ice skater,
wasn't she?
1294
01:05:03,483 --> 01:05:05,068
Yes, she was.
1295
01:05:15,703 --> 01:05:17,997
I taught her myself up
at Comet pond.
1296
01:05:19,541 --> 01:05:24,129
Some of my happiest
memories are of skating
1297
01:05:24,212 --> 01:05:26,631
with Sarah at the pond...
1298
01:05:30,135 --> 01:05:31,511
...at Christmas time.
1299
01:05:33,847 --> 01:05:35,890
I have an idea
I'd like to propose.
1300
01:05:36,015 --> 01:05:39,102
And what might that be?
1301
01:05:39,185 --> 01:05:43,148
I'd like to name
the Skating Oval after Sarah.
1302
01:05:43,231 --> 01:05:46,693
I'd like to make it the
Sarah Tremblay memorial rink.
1303
01:05:46,818 --> 01:05:51,531
The Christmas Carnival could
be a fundraiser for Melanoma.
1304
01:05:51,656 --> 01:05:53,158
Each year the extra proceeds
1305
01:05:53,241 --> 01:05:56,911
could be donated in her
name to Melanoma research.
1306
01:05:57,036 --> 01:06:00,373
Mr. Mayor, I studied
the city budget
1307
01:06:00,498 --> 01:06:01,809
and there might be a way
to take the rink
1308
01:06:01,833 --> 01:06:03,126
off of parks and rec
1309
01:06:03,251 --> 01:06:04,961
and fund it with money
appropriated
1310
01:06:05,086 --> 01:06:06,546
for statues and memorials,
1311
01:06:06,671 --> 01:06:09,174
which hasn't been
tapped for a few years.
1312
01:06:11,050 --> 01:06:12,719
You've done your homework.
1313
01:06:12,844 --> 01:06:14,804
Yes, sir.
1314
01:06:14,929 --> 01:06:16,139
What do you think?
1315
01:06:19,058 --> 01:06:21,603
You'd need a citizen's petition.
1316
01:06:21,686 --> 01:06:24,939
I got over a thousand people to
send Christmas Cards, didn't I?
1317
01:06:26,858 --> 01:06:28,109
Yes, you did.
1318
01:06:28,193 --> 01:06:30,403
I'll get the signatures.
1319
01:06:30,528 --> 01:06:33,239
But it's too late to change
the venue for the carnival.
1320
01:06:33,364 --> 01:06:34,991
The vendors are already...
1321
01:06:35,074 --> 01:06:37,160
I think Noah can help me there.
1322
01:06:37,243 --> 01:06:41,247
I told you, Mr. Mayor, I
believe in Christmas miracles.
1323
01:06:45,585 --> 01:06:47,587
You're starting to
make me believe, too.
1324
01:06:49,255 --> 01:06:52,300
But, I can't take your
proposal to the city council.
1325
01:06:52,383 --> 01:06:54,177
Why not?
1326
01:06:54,260 --> 01:06:56,137
Because it's in
my daughter's name.
1327
01:06:56,179 --> 01:06:59,766
Oh, right, of course.
That could be misconstrued.
1328
01:06:59,849 --> 01:07:02,560
But you could.
1329
01:07:02,685 --> 01:07:03,728
Me?
1330
01:07:06,523 --> 01:07:11,069
City council meeting
is tomorrow.
1331
01:07:11,152 --> 01:07:12,987
I'll put you on the agenda.
1332
01:07:32,590 --> 01:07:33,590
Hey.
1333
01:07:33,633 --> 01:07:35,134
Hey.
1334
01:07:43,184 --> 01:07:44,686
How's the knee?
1335
01:07:44,811 --> 01:07:45,812
It's fine.
1336
01:07:45,895 --> 01:07:47,313
Nothing's torn, just a sprain.
1337
01:07:48,523 --> 01:07:49,941
You are tough, huh?
1338
01:07:50,024 --> 01:07:51,943
I spoke to your Father‐in‐law.
1339
01:07:52,026 --> 01:07:52,902
You did?
1340
01:07:53,027 --> 01:07:54,237
Why didn't you tell me?
1341
01:07:54,362 --> 01:07:55,863
Look, I didn't want you to think
1342
01:07:55,947 --> 01:07:57,574
I was getting
special consideration.
1343
01:07:57,699 --> 01:08:00,493
And you didn't?
1344
01:08:00,577 --> 01:08:02,829
Look, I didn't come here
to get mad at you again
1345
01:08:02,912 --> 01:08:04,581
and we don't have much time.
1346
01:08:04,706 --> 01:08:06,541
For what?
1347
01:08:06,666 --> 01:08:09,294
There's an alternate way
to fund the rink.
1348
01:08:09,377 --> 01:08:10,962
Look, Courtney, I want to
1349
01:08:11,045 --> 01:08:12,630
save the Skating Oval
as much as anyone.
1350
01:08:12,755 --> 01:08:14,132
Especially now that I know you.
1351
01:08:14,257 --> 01:08:16,467
And Calvin does, too,
his hands are just tied.
1352
01:08:16,593 --> 01:08:18,094
Exactly.
1353
01:08:18,177 --> 01:08:19,822
Which is why I'm going before
the city council tomorrow
1354
01:08:19,846 --> 01:08:20,888
with a proposal.
1355
01:08:21,014 --> 01:08:22,140
Really?
1356
01:08:22,223 --> 01:08:24,183
You have to be okay
with this idea.
1357
01:08:24,309 --> 01:08:27,645
And, if it works I'm going
to need your help.
1358
01:08:27,729 --> 01:08:29,814
Okay...
1359
01:08:29,939 --> 01:08:31,166
If we can work together,
we can throw
1360
01:08:31,190 --> 01:08:33,735
the best Christmas
Carnival ever.
1361
01:08:36,029 --> 01:08:37,864
Here's my plan...
1362
01:08:42,368 --> 01:08:46,581
As I told Mayor Greenwood,
I believe in Christmas miracles.
1363
01:08:46,664 --> 01:08:50,168
And I believe
in the Skating Oval...
1364
01:08:50,293 --> 01:08:54,130
its purpose as a gathering
place for public recreation,
1365
01:08:54,213 --> 01:08:56,007
its goal as the center‐piece
1366
01:08:56,132 --> 01:08:58,301
of the downtown
revitalization effort,
1367
01:08:58,426 --> 01:09:03,389
and its gift to
underprivileged children.
1368
01:09:03,514 --> 01:09:06,643
To see it close would
not only cost me my job,
1369
01:09:08,102 --> 01:09:09,646
but it would break my heart.
1370
01:09:11,272 --> 01:09:14,067
Which is why
1371
01:09:14,192 --> 01:09:17,028
I propose re‐dedicating
the Skating Oval
1372
01:09:17,111 --> 01:09:21,658
as a memorial in the name
of Sarah Tremblay
1373
01:09:21,741 --> 01:09:26,913
who tragically lost her life at
far too young an age to cancer.
1374
01:09:26,996 --> 01:09:29,040
Sarah was a native of our city
1375
01:09:29,165 --> 01:09:32,168
who loved the sport
of ice skating,
1376
01:09:32,293 --> 01:09:34,295
she was a young mother,
1377
01:09:34,379 --> 01:09:39,384
and she was the daughter
of our beloved Mayor
1378
01:09:39,509 --> 01:09:42,512
who has served this
city with distinction.
1379
01:09:47,642 --> 01:09:50,770
Thank you for considering
this proposal.
1380
01:10:16,170 --> 01:10:17,422
Well?
1381
01:10:19,424 --> 01:10:21,718
That was quite
an impassioned plea.
1382
01:10:21,843 --> 01:10:23,678
It came from the heart.
1383
01:10:23,803 --> 01:10:25,722
I could tell.
1384
01:10:25,847 --> 01:10:26,931
Did they vote?
1385
01:10:27,014 --> 01:10:28,808
Yes, they did.
1386
01:10:30,101 --> 01:10:31,811
You're killing me
here, Mr. Mayor.
1387
01:10:31,936 --> 01:10:32,936
What did they say?
1388
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:38,109
You have a lot of work to do.
1389
01:10:38,192 --> 01:10:39,986
They approved it.
1390
01:10:40,069 --> 01:10:41,571
They did?
1391
01:10:41,696 --> 01:10:43,030
Yes, they did.
1392
01:10:43,156 --> 01:10:45,283
Oh, thank you Mr. Greenwood.
1393
01:10:45,366 --> 01:10:48,494
No, thank you.
Please... call me Calvin.
1394
01:10:51,205 --> 01:10:52,707
This means so much.
1395
01:10:57,086 --> 01:10:58,212

Hi, Ompa! You're doing great!
1410
01:12:09,033 --> 01:12:10,660
Thank you, sweetheart.
1411
01:12:12,537 --> 01:12:14,431
I can't believe I haven't
ever skated out here before.
1412
01:12:14,455 --> 01:12:15,957
This wonderful.
1413
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:17,625
Not bad, Huh?
1414
01:12:17,708 --> 01:12:20,294
Especially at Christmastime.
1415
01:12:26,926 --> 01:12:28,302
She's a keeper, Noah.
1416
01:12:31,138 --> 01:12:32,306
I know.
1417
01:12:33,975 --> 01:12:35,309
I want you to be happy.
1418
01:12:36,936 --> 01:12:39,647
Sarah will always be
with us in our hearts.
1419
01:12:41,357 --> 01:12:43,067
But I want you to be happy.
1420
01:12:48,030 --> 01:12:49,630
You don't know how
much that means to me.
1421
01:12:52,618 --> 01:12:55,037
This will be a wonderful way
to remember her.
1422
01:12:57,582 --> 01:13:00,877
Yeah, it certainly will.
1423
01:13:04,922 --> 01:13:05,922
(chuckles)
1424
01:13:20,271 --> 01:13:21,689
What do you think?
1425
01:13:21,814 --> 01:13:22,648
It's adorable!
1426
01:13:22,773 --> 01:13:24,859
You look beautiful, sweetheart.
1427
01:13:24,984 --> 01:13:27,153
I can't wait for
the show tomorrow!
1428
01:13:27,278 --> 01:13:29,447
You're going to be so great!
1429
01:13:32,199 --> 01:13:33,993
Thank you.
1430
01:13:34,076 --> 01:13:36,037
Why are you thanking me?
1431
01:13:36,162 --> 01:13:37,848
You're the one that's
making Grace's Christmas.
1432
01:13:37,872 --> 01:13:39,498
I've never seen her this happy.
1433
01:13:39,582 --> 01:13:42,043
She is so excited,
and that costume is perfect.
1434
01:13:43,753 --> 01:13:47,048
But I wanted to thank you for
sharing this all this with me.
1435
01:13:48,507 --> 01:13:49,967
It's our pleasure.
1436
01:13:50,051 --> 01:13:53,054
I mean, I have a gingerbread
person on your tree.
1437
01:13:54,889 --> 01:13:57,391
Yeah.
It kind of feels like
you belong there...
1438
01:13:58,601 --> 01:14:00,478
Like you belong here.
1439
01:14:01,687 --> 01:14:04,273
Honestly, I do feel
like I belong here.
1440
01:14:04,357 --> 01:14:06,567
I haven't been this happy
in a long time.
1441
01:14:07,902 --> 01:14:09,403
I'm glad.
1442
01:14:12,365 --> 01:14:13,574
Hey!
1443
01:14:13,699 --> 01:14:15,259
Can I have another
cup of hot chocolate?
1444
01:14:15,368 --> 01:14:17,662
Oh, yeah.
Of course you can, honey.
1445
01:14:17,703 --> 01:14:19,121
I'll get it! I'll get it.
1446
01:14:20,706 --> 01:14:22,208
With marshmallows, please.
1447
01:14:22,291 --> 01:14:23,167
‐Got it. ‐Yes, please.
1448
01:14:23,292 --> 01:14:24,543
Thanks, Courtney.
1449
01:14:24,669 --> 01:14:26,796
Okay Mom, I miss you too.
1450
01:14:26,921 --> 01:14:28,381
Give my love to Dad,
1451
01:14:28,506 --> 01:14:29,858
and tell him I'll
call Christmas morning...
1452
01:14:29,882 --> 01:14:32,551
Okay. Love you, too, bye.
1453
01:14:34,971 --> 01:14:37,264
Tough being away from home
for Christmas isn't it?
1454
01:14:37,348 --> 01:14:40,184
Yeah. Christmas is family time.
1455
01:14:40,309 --> 01:14:42,436
‐I really miss them. ‐Me, too.
1456
01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:44,814
But hey, we're like
family, right?
1457
01:14:44,855 --> 01:14:46,315
Yeah, we are.
1458
01:14:46,440 --> 01:14:47,650
Thank you so much.
1459
01:14:47,775 --> 01:14:49,169
I couldn't have done
this without you.
1460
01:14:49,193 --> 01:14:50,361
Ah, no, it was nothing.
1461
01:14:50,486 --> 01:14:52,154
And hey, I got you
a little something.
1462
01:14:52,279 --> 01:14:55,282
I got you a little
something, too,
but let's wait.
1463
01:14:55,366 --> 01:14:56,551
There's only two days
'til Christmas.
1464
01:14:56,575 --> 01:14:58,327
Nah, I want you to see this.
1465
01:14:58,411 --> 01:15:00,162
C'mon. Open it.
1466
01:15:00,246 --> 01:15:01,706
All right.
1467
01:15:07,503 --> 01:15:09,797
Oh my gosh, what?
1468
01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:11,298
How did you get it
printed so fast!?
1469
01:15:11,382 --> 01:15:12,542
My uncle pulled some strings.
1470
01:15:12,633 --> 01:15:15,136
It's an advance copy.
1471
01:15:15,261 --> 01:15:16,429
Doesn't it look great?
1472
01:15:16,512 --> 01:15:18,973
It looks amazing.
1473
01:15:19,056 --> 01:15:20,141
Congratulations!
1474
01:15:20,182 --> 01:15:21,809
Thanks.
1475
01:15:21,934 --> 01:15:25,604
And I'm serious about
donating the proceeds
to the rink.
1476
01:15:25,688 --> 01:15:27,606
Beth, that is too sweet,
1477
01:15:27,690 --> 01:15:30,443
but let's wait and
see what happens tonight.
1478
01:15:30,526 --> 01:15:32,028
Okay.
1479
01:16:02,349 --> 01:16:05,394
Three, two, one!
1480
01:16:05,519 --> 01:16:07,688
Merry Christmas!
1481
01:16:13,444 --> 01:16:14,755
I think I know you
from somewhere.
1482
01:16:14,779 --> 01:16:16,238
I think it's the nose.
1483
01:16:16,363 --> 01:16:18,657
‐Rudolph. ‐Oh, yeah!
1484
01:16:18,741 --> 01:16:19,992
Oh my goodness.
1485
01:16:20,076 --> 01:16:23,829
(cheering)
1486
01:16:31,337 --> 01:16:34,090
♪ [Christmas music plays]
1487
01:17:38,988 --> 01:17:40,781
(cheering)
1488
01:17:43,576 --> 01:17:45,327
Weren't they beautiful?
1489
01:17:45,411 --> 01:17:47,121
I know, right?
1490
01:17:47,204 --> 01:17:51,208
So many people came together
to make this evening possible.
1491
01:17:51,333 --> 01:17:52,710
First I'd like to thank
1492
01:17:52,835 --> 01:17:56,463
the hundreds of citizens
who sent me Christmas Cards.
1493
01:17:56,547 --> 01:17:59,300
What an outpouring of support.
Thank you.
1494
01:18:02,178 --> 01:18:04,597
And to our vendors and sponsors,
1495
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:07,057
a heartfelt thanks to
each and every one of you.
1496
01:18:10,811 --> 01:18:15,149
And to the city council
who had the wisdom
1497
01:18:15,274 --> 01:18:17,818
to make this...
1498
01:18:17,902 --> 01:18:22,531
this magical Skating Oval
a memorial...
1499
01:18:22,656 --> 01:18:23,824
thank you.
1500
01:18:25,993 --> 01:18:29,205
But most of all,
I want to thank a woman
1501
01:18:29,330 --> 01:18:32,666
whose boundless energy
and enthusiasm,
1502
01:18:32,750 --> 01:18:36,212
whose tireless work
and dedication
1503
01:18:36,337 --> 01:18:38,797
and whose...
1504
01:18:38,923 --> 01:18:44,637
whose valuable
and thoughtful advice
1505
01:18:44,678 --> 01:18:46,805
made this whole
thing possible...
1506
01:18:47,723 --> 01:18:49,225
Courtney Bennett.
1507
01:18:49,350 --> 01:18:50,350
(cheering)
1508
01:18:53,103 --> 01:18:55,773
Before I ask Courtney
to come out here,
1509
01:18:55,856 --> 01:18:57,296
I'd want to introduce
you to somebody
1510
01:18:57,358 --> 01:19:00,486
that most of you
probably already know.
1511
01:19:00,569 --> 01:19:02,821
Former Toronto Maple Leaf's star
1512
01:19:02,905 --> 01:19:06,116
and my son‐in‐law,
Noah Tremblay!
1513
01:19:07,451 --> 01:19:08,869
Come on out here, Noah.
1514
01:19:20,172 --> 01:19:21,382
Noah Tremblay.
1515
01:19:26,178 --> 01:19:29,306
Thank you, Calvin.
1516
01:19:29,431 --> 01:19:33,143
What a a wonderful tribute
for the mayor's daughter...
1517
01:19:34,645 --> 01:19:37,648
and my wife, Sarah,
1518
01:19:37,773 --> 01:19:42,027
who we tragically
lost 5 years ago.
1519
01:19:42,152 --> 01:19:44,989
You know, Sarah, she loved
the sport of ice skating
1520
01:19:45,072 --> 01:19:47,825
and for our family
to know that this rink
1521
01:19:47,908 --> 01:19:50,995
will forever be known as
the Sarah Tremblay Skating Oval
1522
01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:55,165
is a tribute and an honor
beyond our wildest dreams.
1523
01:19:57,084 --> 01:19:58,564
Hey, Grace, you want
to come out here?
1524
01:20:03,340 --> 01:20:05,801
When I heard that we were
going to have this dedication
1525
01:20:05,884 --> 01:20:07,678
this Christmas,
1526
01:20:07,803 --> 01:20:10,764
I reached out to
some of my NHL alumni
1527
01:20:10,848 --> 01:20:13,976
and we pieced together
a little something.
1528
01:20:14,059 --> 01:20:15,102
Honey?
1529
01:20:23,402 --> 01:20:24,987
With this $100,000 donation,
1530
01:20:25,112 --> 01:20:26,697
I'd like to announce
the formation
1531
01:20:26,822 --> 01:20:28,341
of the Courtney Bennett
Scholarship fund
1532
01:20:28,365 --> 01:20:31,118
for the advancement of
youth skating in the city.
1533
01:20:31,201 --> 01:20:33,120
And if today's show
is any indication,
1534
01:20:33,203 --> 01:20:35,331
we are off to a great start!
1535
01:20:35,456 --> 01:20:38,167
(cheering)
1536
01:20:38,250 --> 01:20:40,294
Courtney is single‐handedly
responsible
1537
01:20:40,419 --> 01:20:42,004
for saving this rink
1538
01:20:42,129 --> 01:20:44,882
and has given of her time
and her talent
1539
01:20:45,007 --> 01:20:47,926
to help the youth of this
city for many, many years.
1540
01:20:48,010 --> 01:20:50,220
And we hope that with
this little kick start,
1541
01:20:50,346 --> 01:20:53,474
that she'll be able
to do that for many,
many more years to come.
1542
01:20:53,557 --> 01:20:57,019
Courtney, would you come out
here and join us on the ice?
1543
01:21:18,290 --> 01:21:20,125
This is truly
a Christmas miracle.
1544
01:21:20,250 --> 01:21:21,293
Thank you.
1545
01:21:21,335 --> 01:21:23,045
No, I should be thanking you.
1546
01:21:27,674 --> 01:21:29,426
Merry Christmas, Courtney.
1547
01:21:29,510 --> 01:21:31,970
Merry Christmas, sweetheart.
1548
01:21:43,774 --> 01:21:44,942
Wow.
1549
01:21:45,859 --> 01:21:47,069
Wow.
1550
01:21:59,248 --> 01:22:01,458
I'm going to put it
right by my bed.
1551
01:22:02,584 --> 01:22:03,752
Thank you, Courtney.
1552
01:22:03,836 --> 01:22:05,546
I'm so glad you like it.
1553
01:22:08,173 --> 01:22:09,800
Can we roast some
marshmallows now?
1554
01:22:09,925 --> 01:22:12,636
Of course!
That's why we brought them!
1555
01:22:12,719 --> 01:22:13,887
Grab a stick.
1556
01:22:19,810 --> 01:22:22,312
This is the best Christmas ever.
1557
01:22:24,481 --> 01:22:27,359
You know, you're really
great with her.
1558
01:22:27,484 --> 01:22:30,946
She's such a sweet girl
it's not difficult.
1559
01:22:31,029 --> 01:22:35,325
This has also been my best
Christmas in a long time.
1560
01:22:35,409 --> 01:22:37,077
Mine, too.
1561
01:22:38,871 --> 01:22:40,414
And it's because of you.
1562
01:22:44,168 --> 01:22:46,795
You know, there's something
I wanted to do
1563
01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:48,714
with you out on that
stage yesterday,
1564
01:22:48,839 --> 01:22:51,300
that wasn't
appropriate in public.
1565
01:22:51,425 --> 01:22:52,634
Oh, yeah?
1566
01:22:52,718 --> 01:22:54,470
What was that?
1567
01:22:55,762 --> 01:22:57,222
This.
1568
01:23:07,900 --> 01:23:08,942
Merry Christmas.
1569
01:23:09,026 --> 01:23:10,694
Merry Christmas.
1570
01:23:12,404 --> 01:23:13,697
Let's do it.
1571
01:23:13,822 --> 01:23:15,365
‐Let's do it. ‐Let's do it.
1572
01:23:16,492 --> 01:23:17,993
How's the marshmallow?
1573
01:23:18,076 --> 01:23:19,995
Good. So good.
1574
01:23:21,705 --> 01:23:23,123
‐You want some? ‐Sure.
1575
01:23:27,669 --> 01:23:28,754
Really good.
1576
01:23:28,837 --> 01:23:29,755
You want a bite, Daddy?
1577
01:23:29,838 --> 01:23:30,964
Yes, please.
