All language subtitles for Christmas In Evergreen 2017 Hallmark 720p HDTV X264 Solar

[♪♪♪]

[Narrator]:
In northern Vermont,

so far north
that on clear days,

you might be able
to see the north pole,

lies the magical town
of evergreen.

Some say it was the decorations

that made this little town
so special,

but others believed

it was because
of something else entirely,

something you wouldn't
expect at all...

A snow globe...

But this wasn't
just any snow globe.

No, they say

that if you shake
this one just so,

and make one wish,

the true wish of your heart,

Christmas magic
will make it come true.

Now, I know
what you're thinking.

Could a snow globe
really Grant wishes?

Well, maybe the story
of Christmas in evergreen

will help you believe.

[♪♪♪]

[Woman]: Hey, everyone,
here we come!

These guys have got
all their shots,

and they're ready
for their first Christmas.

Aw!

I can't get over
how cute they are!

How's our mama doing?

Molly definitely has
her paws full

with these guys.

They sure are
going to miss you.

Mm, I'm going to
miss them, too.

I'm going to miss all
my furry patients.

Wait a minute.

You don't have
any furry patients in D.C.?

No, I will,

but I'm going to be
working in a big clinic.

I don't know
if I'll have time

for a pile of pugs.

But aren't you going
to miss it?

[Puppy whines]

Of course I will,

but this is
a big opportunity.

I can't pass it up...

And you have Dr. Myers' info
in Montpelier, right?

Yup.

He's great.

Yes, he is,
but it's going to be different.

I know,

but different is good, right?

Like, having a whole bunch
of puppies is different,

and that's a
good thing, right?

Yeah, I can't wait
to find these guys a new home.

Bye, Allie.

Now we've just got to find
a new home for you, Frank.

[Woman]: Joe, she's here!

Hi, honey.

Oh, Allie!

My baby!

No, this is not goodbye.

I'm just dropping off Frank.

Besides, you promised
you wouldn't cry.

I'm not!
I was just...

Chopping onions.

I'm going to be home
right after Christmas.

Mm-hmm...

And then you're going to be
leaving again right after that,

for good,

and all I'm going to
have to remember you by

is the goldfish.

[Joe]: Maybe I should, uh,

just take care
of Frank, okay?

Thanks.

Washington, D.C.
has modern conveniences.

I know.

Phone.

I know.

I hear they even have
an airport now.

Honey, I just want to make sure
that you're sure,

'cause this is
a big change, Allie.

I'm sure.

It's a great job,

and besides,
I'm ready for a change.

And I'm not just talking
about just the job.

No, mom, no.

We've been over this.

Spencer and I,
we're testing the waters.

Mm-hmm, and there was a reason
that you two broke up, honey.

Yeah!

We couldn't handle
the long-distance thing,

so now we're going
to be in the same city,

and it's not a big deal.

You're going to be spending
Christmas with him, Allie,

and that is a very big deal.

You're just hugging me right now
just to hush me up, aren't you?

No, I'm hugging you
because I love you.

The hushing

is just a bonus.

I've got to go.

I love you.

I love you.

[Doorbells jingle]

Oh!

Oh, so sorry!

In a hurry to get
your Christmas plans started?

Yes.

Just about to head
out of town.

Well, be sure
to check the weather

before you go
to the airport.

Mother nature
can be unpredictable.

[Chuckles]

[Phone ringing]

[Phone ringing]

Spencer!

Hey, I was just heading
out the door.

Happy "moving to D.C. day!"

Hey, it's not
moving to D.C. day.

It's "coming to D.C.

To sign the new lease
on my apartment day."

I'm sorry,
do they make a card for that?

They make a card
for everything.

[Spencer]: I cannot believe

we are finally going
to be living

in the same city together,

just five blocks apart.

Well, the commute
will definitely be a lot easier.

So, I've got
some incredible stuff

lined up for us...

Dinners, parties...
Oh...

And on Christmas day,

you and I are going
to be going

to my boss' swanky estate
out in the Hamptons.

One of the partners even said

that we can use his helicopter
to get there.

A helicopter?

Really?

Hey, you better
get used to it, okay?

This is going to be

a brand-new start
for us, Allie.

Right, and I'm excited
about that.

I just want to make sure

that we're not getting
ahead of ourselves.

Allie, I get it.

I totally get it, okay?

I just want to put the last
couple of months behind us.

I mean, this is Christmas.

It's a time
for new beginnings.

Absolutely...

And, you know,
also...

I love swanky parties.

Beautiful.

Um, I should
get back to work, though.

I can't wait to see you tonight.

All right.
I'll talk to you soon.

Okay.

Bye.

I can do swanky.

[Engine sputters]

[Sputters]

No...

[Man]: I've got to go. Christmas
calls.

Okay, bye-bye.

Sorry.

Last work call,
I promise.

You said that
after the last one...

And the one
before that,

and the one
before that,

and...

Oh, okay!

Hey, Zoe, now I'm
officially on vacation.

Just you and me
off to Florida

and our big cruise
on Christmas day.

Won't that be fun?

Sure!
We can have fun in Florida.

I mean, Christmas is supposed
to be cold with snow, but...

According to who?

Santa.

That's why
he wears a suit.

Oh, you know,
I didn't know that.

But how about this?
I'll tell you what.

When we get there,

soon as we get
into our hotel,

we will crank the
air conditioning up

really high,

uh, we'll fill
the pool with ice,

and it'll be just like
living in the north pole.

[Giggles]
Oh, dad...

You could've
walked to D.C. by now.

Don't we have
enough real snow?

Oh, this is
for the Christmas festival.

You know,
the one you're going to miss?

Yes, I'm aware

I'm missing the
Christmas festival.

Thank you for
the reminder.

Boy, I'll tell you,
whoever decided to take over

after you planned this thing

is crazy.

You're taking over
the planning!

Like I said...

[Laughs]

Oh, boy,
don't tell me

you are taking
this thing to D.C.

Of course I am.

This is my grandpa's truck.
I love this truck.

Obviously,
it doesn't love you.

Why are we friends again?

Because
I'm the only one

that's going
to tell you

that you will never get
this thing to start.

Oh, yeah?

Watch this!

[Engine starts]

Ho, ho, ho!
It worked.

Oh, great!

Now you can take me
to town hall.

No, I've got to go
to the airport.

Well, it's on the way,
and this box is awkward,

so let's go.

Allie, you've got
to come in.

I've got to go!

But I want you
to see the layout.

We're changing
some things.

Come on.

Okay, one minute.
You have one minute.

This looks amazing!

- You did such a good job.
- Thank you.

This snowflake needs
a little bit more...

Sparkle.

Sparkle? Okay.

Uh-oh. Here comes
the mayor.

I haven't had enough
coffee for this.

Not enough coffee
in evergreen.

[Mayor]:
Michelle!

I have an idea.

Good morning, Ezra.

Former resident.

I haven't even left yet!

What's your idea
this time, Ezra?

I think we should have an app.

You know,

an interactive experience.

The festival
is in five days.

We can't get an app
made in five days.

Well, we need to find some way
to make the festival current.

You know,
we need to shake things up.

This is my first
time in charge,

and I don't want
to shake things up.

It's my first year as mayor,
and I want things shaken.

Your dad was mayor
for 30 years,

and this was good
enough for him.

That's my point!

We don't want this
to be our parents' festival.

Allie?

Oh, don't look at me.
Soon-to-be former resident.

[Woman]:
Hey, everyone.

Came to help.

Barbara, hi!
How's the inn coming along?

Oh, my goodness,
so great!

I'm opening in two weeks.
Can't believe it.

[Ezra]: It's so nice

to have someone
come to evergreen

to open a business...

Thanks.

Instead of business
owners moving away.

Okay, meanie.

Don't make me tell them
about the incident

in second grade.

Best of luck in your new job.

Michelle,

since doc Hadley
retired and moved away,

we need to find someone
new to play Santa.

Now, I'm thinking that
we go against type...

Younger,

more... handsome.

[Michelle]:
Too late.

I already got a guy
out of Burlington.

[Allie]: Oh,
I think I saw him.

He looks
like Santa Claus

even without the costume.

Wait, he's here
already?

Must be getting
ready for the role.

[Ezra]:
Well, okay,

if you guys want
to be "traditional,"

but what about
the children's choir?

Can't they do some
newer Christmas songs?

Give me a break.

[Laughs]

[Dad]: We've got angels,
Blitzen,

candy canes, decorations,

elves...

Fireplace!

Fireplace
isn't a Christmas word.

It's what Santa
comes down.

Santa comes down the chimney.

Okay, okay.

Um, how about...

Fruitcake?

Pretty good.

Pretty good?

Okay, my turn.

Your turn.

G.

Okay.

Um... angels,

Blitzen, candy canes,
decorations,

elves, fruitcake,

and...

Gingerbread.

Mm-mm-mm!

That's a good one.

Thanks...

Except for now I'm hungry.

Okay, you know what?

Um, yeah,
I think we have time to stop.

We've just got to make it quick.
We've got a flight to catch.

Evergreen!
Let's go there!

[Dad]: Yeah, sure.
Sounds good.

Merry Christmas! Hi.

[Phone rings]

Hey, Henry.

What's wrong?

Oh, no, no, no,
she's not due for...

Oh, no, Henry,
I'm on my way to the airport.

Can't you call Dr. Myers?

Oh.

Right, okay.

All right, well,
I'll be there as soon as I can.

Okay, bye.

[Zoe]: We're here, dad.
It's so pretty.

[Engine sputters]

Seriously?

I know you don't want me
to leave,

but this is ridiculous.

[Engine sputters]

[Engine sputters]

Oh, wow.

This place is beautiful.

How have I never
been here before?

Wow.

It's perfect here.

This is what Christmas
is supposed to look like.

Well, Florida's going
to look like this, too,

only more palm trees,
you know?

[Engine sputters]

[Knocks]

Oh.

Hi there.

Hi.
Do you need some help?

Oh, no.
It'll start...

Eventually.

Wishing you luck.

[Engine starts]

Oh!

Hey!

Did you
just do that, dad?

You know,
when I tell the story later,

I fully intend to take credit,
so yes, let's say I did.

Well,
how can I ever thank you?

You could actually direct us
to a good place for lunch.

Oh, well,

the Chris Kringle kitchen
is right here.

It's the best
diner in town,

and I'm not
just saying that

because my folks run it.

The Chris Kringle kitchen...
Goodness.

You guys really do take
Christmas seriously around here,

don't you?

Yeah, we sure do.

Well, thanks a lot
for your help.

Couldn't have done it
without you.

Absolutely.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

[Horn honks]

Hey, Henry.

Hey, doc!

Sorry, Henry.

She is not in labor.

Are you sure?
I heard her mooing.

Cows moo.

It's a common occurrence.

[Henry]:
It was a different kind.

It was a...

"I'm about
to give birth" moo.

You better brush up
on your bovine,

'cause she's fine.

What are we going to do

if it happens
when you're gone?

You're going
to call Dr. Myers

in Montpelier.

I have a plane
to catch.

Oh, dear.

You know, big city living's
going to change you.

Oh, change
isn't a bad thing.

Look at that!

You built
a whole new barn.

It's not a bad thing.

Haven't moved in yet,

and it's still just a barn.

Well, I'll still be Allie,
just in a new city.

So what are you going to do
with the old barn

once you move in?

I don't know.

Tear it down,
probably.

Ah.

See that, Henry?
Even more change.

It's in the air.
You can feel it.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, doc.

[Engine starts]

Ha!

There we go.
Bye.

Bye.

[Allie's mother]:
Glad you liked it.

Thanks for coming.

There you go.

[Dad]:
Thanks a lot.

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

Does the snow globe
really Grant wishes?

Well, like the sign says,

"only if you know
what your heart really wants."

Where did it come from?

See, nobody knows.

One day, right after
we opened this diner,

it just showed up
on our doorstep,

and it's been here ever since,
with that sign.

People come from all
over to make wishes.

It's a tradition
here in evergreen.

Have you ever made one?

Ah...

I have.

When I first got it,

I wished
to have a little girl

just like you,

and you know what?

My wish came true.

So would you like
to try it?

Sure.

All right.

Careful, Zoe.

[Zoe]: I wish we could have
Christmas here...

In evergreen.

Your turn, dad.

No thanks.

Oh, come on, dad.
Don't be shy.

I'm sure
whatever Zoe wished for

is good enough
for both of us.

Okay.

Thank you!

You come back

and tell us
how that wish turned out, okay?

Okay. Bye!

Bye, honey.

[Dad]:
Merry Christmas.

Can't we stay
a little longer?

Zoe, the sooner
we get to the airport,

the sooner we get to Florida!

Florida will be great, but...

But what?

Just look
at this place.

[Dad]: I promise,

Florida is going
to be so much fun,

and you and me,
we are going to have

the best Christmas ever.

Okay?

Okay, dad.

Okay, all right.

In you go, kiddo.

So...

You're on your way.

All packed up
and ready to go.

Mom...

I'm not going to cry.

You're going to be back
next week.

Exactly.

We'll have time

for our big emotional
goodbye then.

Right.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, sweetheart.

You travel safely.

I will.

Bye, daddy.

Goodbye, sweetheart.

Family hug.

Okay, okay.

I love you guys.

Chopping onions?

Yeah.

[Engine starts]

[♪♪♪]

It's this way.

There you go.
Have a nice flight.

Thanks so much.

Hello.

Here you go, sir.
Have a nice flight.

Washington, D.C., please.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, please tell him
that Dr. Bellamy called

and that I'll be back
after the new year.

Okay, thanks
so much.

Last work call.

I promise.

It's okay, dad.
I'm having fun.

Yeah?

Okay, what's been
your favorite part so far?

Evergreen, of course.

Oh, hey!

If it isn't my mechanic
and her assistant.

Hi!
What are you doing here?

Taking an airplane.

We are, too.

We're going to Florida.

Washington, D.C.

I'm Allie,
by the way.

I'm Ryan, and this is Zoe.

Hi, Zoe.

How was lunch?

It was great!

And I made a wish
on the snow globe.

I'm pretty sure
it's what my heart wanted.

You know,
my grandpa used to say,

"the heart knows what it wants
even when the head doesn't."

So what did you wish for?

I can't tell you,
or else it won't come true...

[Laughs]

[Zoe]:
But I'm starting to worry

that it's not going
to come true anyways.

Well, maybe
you should wish for it again,

give it a little turbo boost.

But I don't have
the snow globe.

Oh, it's pretty powerful.

I bet it'll be able
to hear you

from all the way over here.

[Announcer]:
Ladies and gentlemen, um,

sorry to report
that due to heavy snow,

we are closing the runways
and canceling all flights.

[Ryan]:
Come on...

Okay, great,
thanks.

Hey there.

Hi.

Did you find a hotel
for the night?

We did, yeah.

We're just going to
grab something to eat.

Did you?

I'm going to head back
to evergreen.

It's not far.

Are you sure you're okay
to drive in this storm?

Oh, please.

My truck's seen way worse
than this,

and besides,
hopefully tomorrow,

everything will be up
and running again.

Does the flight
being canceled

mean we aren't going to Florida?

No, we will still
have plenty of time

to catch our cruise.

Ooh, a cruise?

That sounds like
a fancy Christmas.

Certainly a lot warmer.

[Zoe]: Yeah.

It'll be great.

Well...

It was nice to meet you.

Nice meeting you, too.

Maybe we'll see you
round here tomorrow.

Yeah...

And if not, merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Allie!

Two, please! Yeah.

[Phone rings]

Allie?

Hi! Bad news.

The flight got canceled
because of the snow.

I was just heading
out to the airport

to pick you up.

Oh, I'm sorry.

It'll be sometime tomorrow,
hopefully.

I'm working tomorrow.

Oh, that's okay.

I can just get a cab
from the airport.

No second thoughts, right?

Spencer!
I didn't cause the snow.

Let's just get me there.
Everything's going to be fine.

Sure, of course.

Call me tomorrow?

Of course.
Bye.

[Engine sputters]

Oh, no, come on.
Really?

I thought you wanted me
to be in evergreen!

[Engine sputters]

Can I sit anywhere?

Okay. Thanks.

Allie!

Oh, hi!

Oh, hi, I thought you were going
back to evergreen.

Oh, I was.

I've been trying to get my truck
started for the last hour.

Do you want us to pretend
to fix it again?

[Allie]:
Thank you,

but no,
I'm going to get a bite to eat,

and then I'll try again.

If it still doesn't start,
I'll get a hotel for the night.

Come sit with
us, Allie!

You can tell us
about evergreen.

What would you
like to know?

Well,
what do you do for Christmas?

Oh, well,
every year,

we have this
big festival...

Thank you...

With food, games,
and a choir.

People come from
all over the place.

It's the town's
biggest tradition.

What do you do
in evergreen?

I run a veterinarian practice,

or I did,

but now I'm moving
to Washington, D.C.

To start a new job

and... for
a change of scenery.

So you're not going
to spend Christmas in evergreen?

No, for the
first time in...

Forever.

The festival
sounds like fun.

It is...

Ahem.

But not as fun
as Florida.

Come on,
the beach!

Yeah.
It'll be great.

[Allie]:
Hey!

Can I show you
something?

- Sure.
- Check it out.

Okay, you do a fold,
and another fold,

and then these tiny
little tears, okay?

Little triangles...

And then...

You unfold to reveal
the magical snowflake.

[Zoe]:
Cool!

Yeah, my mom
taught me that.

She said this way,
I could always carry

the magic of the evergreen
Christmas with me

wherever I go.

[Zoe]:
Neat!

My mom used to make

a lot of our Christmas
decorations.

Do you want to learn
how to do it yourself?

Sure.

'Kay, I'll show you.
Napkin!

Napkin.

All right.

Your turn.
Fold in half.

[Zoe]
This way?

[Allie]: You're
a natural. Good work.

[Zoe]: I learned
from the best.

[Allie]: The key
is tearing

these little
triangle pieces.

Like this?

I spoke to Allie.

What'd she say?

She got a hotel room,

and she's going to try
to fly out tomorrow morning.

See? You know
it's bad

if they close
the airport.

Luckily, we're not
landing planes,

we're just having
a festival.

Yeah, my first festival,
and we get a blizzard.

[Joe]:
Ezra, relax.

Everything will
be just fine.

[Allie]: Great. Well, thank you
so much for checking.

No problem.

Okay, uh, well,
thank you anyway.

With all the flights
that were canceled,

there's no more rooms.

They won't let me stay
another night.

Same with us,

and there's no rooms anywhere,
it seems.

Well, I'm going to go see
if I can get my truck started.

If I can,

you're welcome
to come back to evergreen.

Yes!

I mean, yeah.

We could go back
to evergreen again.

Right, dad?

That's very
nice of you,

but where would we even stay?

Is there a hotel, or...?

Sort of.

[Phone rings]

Oh, hi, Allie, hi.

Oh, that's terrible.

I'm so sorry.

Uh-huh.

Uh...

Well, yes, it'd be wonderful
to have them stay here,

just as long as they know
it's not quite finished yet...

But I can easily make up
a guest room.

Wonderful.

Okay, I'll see you then.

Bye!

Wow, how about that?

My first guests!
Yes!

[Laughs]
Whoo!

All right, guys,

you can just throw
your luggage in the back.

Hop on in, kiddo.

Here we go.
[Engine starts]

Hey!

[Cheering]

All right, guys,
buckle up.

Evergreen,
here we come!

[♪♪♪]

- [Zoe]: Allie?
- [Allie]: Yep?

My dad's a people doctor,
and you're a pet doctor.

So you're kind of the same.

Except, well...

Except my patients
can tell me

where it hurts.

Oh, you've obviously
never met

an unhappy reindeer.

You get
a lot of this.

[Laughs]

[Phone rings]

Oh!

Ooh, it's Henry.
Will you hold it?

Hey, Henry.

[Henry] Doc,
buttercup's in labor.

No, no, no,
I told you,

she's not due
for another week...

But she's mooing like crazy.

Really?

Oh, yeah,
and loud.

All right, well,

I'm actually headed back
into town right now.

You're coming back?

No, I know,
it's a long story.

I'll be there
as soon as I can.

Thanks, doc.

Bye.

Well, guys,
I'm afraid

we're going to have
to take a little detour.

[Mooing]

Yeah.

Henry, you
were right.

She's in labor.

Told you I knew their moos.

What can I do
to help?

Uh, all right.

Henry, go get me a big
bucket of hot water,

and Ryan, bring me my bag.

Got it.

'Kay.

Uh, what can I do to help?

You can, um,
take apart a bale of hay,

'cause we're going
to make a little nest

for the baby.

You got it.

[Ezra]: This is a disaster.
What are we supposed to do?

We can fix it.

We don't have the
money to fix it.

Hey, guys,
what's going on?

I just got your message.

Getting a little lesson
in municipal finance

from Mr. stingy
over here.

A water pipe burst
in the town hall.

Water everywhere,
which then froze.

It's like an ice skating rink
in there.

We can fix
it in time.

Sure, we could,

if there was enough in
the town hall preservation fund,

but the festival
was raising money

for the town hall
preservation fund.

Which is kind of ironic,
if you think about it.

Sorry.

[Zoe]: She's so beautiful.

[Allie]: She is.
She's awesome.

Thanks for your help.

Me?

Yeah, you!

I couldn't have done this
without you.

[Henry]: Allie
has a point.

Zoe, I think you should
be the one to name her.

[Zoe]: Okay,

but this is big.

I'm going
to need a minute.

What should
I call you?

[Moos]

Hey, um...
Thank you.

For what?

For making Zoe
feel so special.

Oh...

Lot of special
in that moment.

Nice to spread
it around.

I'm really going
to miss this.

After seeing how good
you are with animals,

I have a feeling

that they're going
to miss you, too.

[Zoe]: Hey, everybody!

I've decided

that the baby's
name should be...

Snowflake.

[Chuckles]
Perfect.

I love it.

[Henry]:
Dinner time!

Come on,
up you get!

Push.
There you go.

Over there.
Go see mommy.

There you go.

So what are we
supposed to do?

Cancel the
Christmas festival?

No, no!
You can't cancel the festival!

The entire town
looks forward to it all year.

Well, the only way we're going
to have it this year

is we find someplace else
to do it.

There's no place else
in town with enough space!

That's it.

I'm calling Allie.

No! No, you can't!

This is not her
problem anymore!

You can't call her!

Zoe, we need to go.

[Zoe]:
But I love snowflake!

I swear, she's going

to try and smuggle that thing
in her suitcase.

Your herd gets any bigger,

you're going to have
to keep this old barn.

Or finally put
that new barn

to good use.

[Phone rings]

Oh, hold on one second.

Allie Shaw.

Whoa, Ezra, calm down.
I can't understand you.

Oh, no.

Guys, we may have
to cancel the festival.

Somewhere else
to do it?

Where?

Zoe, come on!

Hey, Henry...

I think I've got an idea

how we could put your new barn
to really good use.

How would you like

to host the
Christmas festival?

[Henry]:
Sure thing!

Wow, dad, look!

It's beautiful!

Come on,
let's go inside.

[Zoe]: Yeah,
let's go inside.

[Barbara]:
Next up...

This is the dining room.

It's like
we're in a storybook!

When did you have
time to decorate?

Oh, I've been working
non-stop.

The only thing
I haven't been able to do

is get a tree.

Oh, I haven't
gotten one either.

Well, the inn looks beautiful,
Barbara.

Thank you so much
for letting us stay the night.

Oh, are you kidding?

I am so happy
to have you here.

Do you want to see
the rest of the place?

- Yes.
- Yeah!

Okay.

You know what?
Why don't you go ahead?

We'll catch up with you
in just a moment.

Okay! Bye.

Thanks. Bye.

Listen, um...

I just wanted to say thank you
one more time

for just taking
such good care of us today.

It's my pleasure,

and hopefully, the airport
will be open tomorrow

so you guys can be on your way.

Yeah, yeah,

although as detours go,

this has been
a pretty eventful one.

I doubt we'll see
too many cows

on the cruise.

Oh, a cow cruise!
That sounds fun.

So, wait,

if you don't
mind me asking,

why Florida?

Sarah, my wife, she...

She died last year,
just before Christmas,

which was really hard,
you know?

So every candy cane,
every Christmas tree,

was like a reminder.

So anyway, this year,

I wanted Zoe to have sunny,
palm trees, Florida...

Stay as far away from Christmas
as possible.

And then I brought you

to the Vermont version
of the north pole.

Well,
it's like north pole adjacent.

It's like a suburb
of the north pole.

Yeah, like, right there
on the commuter line.

Right there.

Well, listen,
if it's any consolation,

I think she's okay.

More than okay.

She's an awesome kid.

Thanks.

Wish I could take credit
for it,

but that was all Sarah.

Even after I pulled back
from patient care,

I work so much that, um...

I think you're too
hard on yourself.

You don't have to be super dad
to be a good dad.

Well, um...

Anyway, thank you.

Yeah.

[Barbara]: Ahem!

Careful, you two.

You're standing
under mistletoe.

Oh!

That's...

I, um...

I should go.

Have a good night.

You didn't have
to bring me food.

I'm your mother.
Of course, I did...

And...

Why did you put up all your
Christmas decorations

if you're not even
going to be here?

I know,
I couldn't help myself,

but at least
I didn't put up a tree.

I'm not
completely Christmas crazy.

Just a little Christmas crazy.

Exactly.

So, did you get
Ryan and Zoe all settled?

Yes, they're at the inn.

He seems like a good guy.

He does, yeah.

Yeah, he's a doctor
and a single dad.

I don't know
how he does it.

So, have you
talked to Spencer?

I have.

Yeah, a little while ago.

Everything's fine.

Honey, as long as you feel

like you're doing the best thing
for you,

then I'm on board.

I do, thank you.

Just not going to be the same
without you around here.

I think that's partly why

your dad and I
are talking about retiring.

You are?

Actually, your father is doing
most of the talking,

and I am listening
very politely.

You don't want to do it?

I can't imagine
leaving evergreen...

But if my brave daughter

can start a new chapter
in her life,

then I guess
her parents can, too.

[Clinks mugs]

But don't tell anyone,

especially not Ezra.

I don't think
his heart could take it.

I don't think so either.

Mm...

And I've got to go,
'cause I'm going to be late.

Where you off to?

To spread a little
Christmas cheer...

And you know,

I think maybe
we'll stop by the inn

for Zoe and Ryan.

Well, I want
a little cheer.

Can I tag along?

Yes, you can tag along.

Go get your coat.

Okay.

[Ryan]: Do you have any sevens?

Go fish.

Ugh, again?

I'm just that good.

Hi, Allie.

[Allie]:
Ryan!

Hi.

Where's Zoe?

Oh, she's back at
the inn with Barbara.

I heard the airport's
open again.

Thought I'd come and see

if we could hitch
a ride back with you.

Oh, of course, yeah...

I want you to meet, um,
my friend, Michelle Lansing.

Hi.

[Ryan]:
Hi, Michelle.

And I think you've met
my mom and dad.

[Ryan]: Hi, nice
to see you again.

This is Dr. Ryan Bellamy.

[Ezra]: Doctor?

And this is mayor Ezra green.

- You're a doctor?
- I am, yes.

You know, our town doctor
just retired, and...

Leave him alone, Ezra.

Right. Sorry.

More important
matters at hand.

Listen up, everybody.

I have some bad news.

They had to shut
down the highway.

Wait, what?

The storm last night
caused a rock slide.

Oh, I don't believe this.

Why is that a problem?

There's only one road
in and out of town.

And now it's blocked
by a bunch of big rocks.

[Ryan]: Uh, well,
when will it open?

Tomorrow... maybe.

Tomorrow?
We're going to miss our flight!

Yeah.

[Ryan]:
Okay, well,

there's got to be
some other way out of town.

Snowmobiles?

Snowplow?

A helicopter?

[Michelle]: Forget
about people getting out.

How's anybody
going to get in?

Nobody's going
to be able to come

to the Christmas festival.

[Joe]:
This is terrible.

Everyone in evergreen
can come.

[Michelle]:
I've got people coming

from Montpelier
and Burlington.

Allie, what
are we going to do?

All right, all right.

Why don't we meet
at Henry's barn

this afternoon

and start setting up
for the festival,

and if the road clears,

great,
and if it doesn't,

then this year,

the festival will just be
for evergreen...

And guests.

Oh, okay, well,
I guess I feel better.

You know, I think this is
another situation

that could've been solved
if we had an app.

Oh, Ezra, please...

No, this is
a good thing.

I mean,

this will light up
the whole...

Hey, I'm so sorry.

If I hadn't invited you here,
you wouldn't be stuck.

You didn't cause
the rock slide.

Did you?

No, I didn't.

My neighbor
has my jackhammer.

I just wanted this Christmas
to be better.

Well...

Y'all are stuck here
another day.

Maybe I could help make
Christmas a little better...

For Zoe.

We do have plenty of snow.

What do you think?

I think he's perfect!

Good work, you guys!

It's so awesome.

I've got to get a picture.

All right, ready?

One, two, three!

♪ Christmas is here again ♪

[Phone rings]

Oh, you know what?
I'm getting a phone call.

I'll be right back.

Okay.

Hi!

Hey.

Are you at the airport?

No.

The storm last night
shut down the highway.

I'm going to be here
another day at least.

Why didn't you just stay
in Burlington?

All the hotels were booked.

I would've had
to sleep in my truck.

Okay.

So, what's the plan?

Well...

I'm thinking at this point,

it might make most sense
for me to stay here.

Allie, what about Christmas?

Spencer, my folks
are talking about retiring.

This could be
my last Christmas in evergreen.

I mean, I was just really
looking forward

to spending it with you, is all.

I know.

Me too,

but I can come
after Christmas,

and we can have
plenty of time then.

Okay?

Yeah, okay.

I'll call you tomorrow.

- Bye.
- Bye.

[Zoe]: Allie!

Hey, look at you guys!

We're making
snow angels.

They're gorgeous!

Mine looks more like
a snow gorilla.

A Christmas gorilla.

[Giggles]

[Zoe]: It's so much fun here.

We should so something nice
for Barbara,

'cause she's been so nice to us.

[Ryan]: Uh...

That's really sweet.

I got an idea.

[Allie]:
Ho, ho, ho!

You here?

[Barbara]:
In here.

What's this?

Well, we figured,

since we have to impose
on you for one more night,

the least we could do

is get you
a Christmas tree.

Oh, you didn't have
to do that...

But I'm glad you did!

Can we decorate it?

Oh, of course!

Let's go get
some ornaments.

Shall we trim it up?

Let's do it.

Okay.

Mm, sappy.

[Allie]: How's that
"steering clear of Christmas"

going for you?

Really well, clearly.

[Laughs]

I'll tell you,

there is just something
about this place

that makes it just tough

to resist
the Christmas spirit.

Evergreen'll do that to you.

I decorated my place this year.
I'm not even going to be here.

Oh...

Actually,
it's a good thing I did.

What do you mean?

It turns out

I don't think I'm
going to go to D.C.

For Christmas
this year.

No? Why not?

It's complicated.

Mm.

A boy.

Oh.

[Laughs]

Spencer.

Two years of
long distance

in a relationship

that just couldn't handle
the distance part...

But we were going to spend
this Christmas together

and just sort of see

if there was something...
There.

No, I get it.
I get it.

Sarah and I were long distance
when we started.

I was in Boston,

she was in this little town
in Ohio.

And that worked out well,
though, right?

Yeah, I guess we just knew
we'd wind up together,

so it helped us
get through it.

I actually considered
going there

and becoming
a small-town doctor.

Yeah.

Now I kind of wish I had.

My work doesn't allow

the kind of time
I'd like to spend with Zoe,

which is hard.

Well...

Don't tell mayor Ezra that.

He'll open up an office for you
in town hall.

Doc Bellamy.

It's got a nice ring.

Yeah, Dr. B!
The doctor is in.

Right?

I've got to say...

This is the last place
I thought I would find myself

three days before Christmas.

Same here.

But, um...

Guess it's not so bad.

No.

It's not bad at all.

You guys ready?
We got the ornaments.

Come on,
let's decorate the tree!

Yeah, let's!

[♪♪♪]

This is, like,
the best tree ever!

[Barbara]:
I agree.

I bet the one at the festival
won't be anywhere near as nice.

[Allie]: We'll see
when we go to the barn

later tonight.

Is there
a Christmas festival

where you're
moving to, Allie?

Oh, I think there is,

but it's nothing like
the one in evergreen.

Then why do you want
to move there?

Well,
I've lived here my whole life,

and it's a wonderful place.

It really is,

but there's a whole big wide
world out there.

I want to see it.

I'm ready for a change.

You know,
my grandpa used to say,

"the further you get
from where you started,

the closer you get
to where you belong."

But what if you belong here?

[Barbara]: Okay...

I think we are ready
for the angel.

Who wants to do the honors?

Me, please!

[Barbara]: Okay,
go for it, Zoe.

All right.

Yup.

Here we go!

Yeah!

Okay. Everybody ready?

Ready!

And drumroll!
Drumroll, yep!

[Slapping knees
in "drumroll"]

[Cheering]

Whoa!

[Allie]:
Look at this!

[Choir]: ♪ we wish you
a merry Christmas ♪

Wow.

[Choir]: ♪ we wish you
a merry Christmas ♪

♪ And a happy new year ♪

Hey, dad?

Can I be
in the choir?

That's for the
festival, kiddo.

We're not going to be here,
remember?

Zoe!

Merry Christmas!

[Laughs]

[Ezra]:
Are you sure

you want to put
the craft booths

in the back?

Ezra!

You are driving
me crazy.

I am in charge
of the festival.

Me, not you.

The festival

is an important part
of the town,

and I am mayor
of the town.

Me, not you.

Your daddy retired,

and nobody else
wanted the job.

A win is still a win.

Ezra, I've got this
under control.

[Phone rings]

Okay? There are no problems.
Hello?

Okay.

Right. Got it.

[Hangs up]

Okay, now we've got a problem.

I knew it.

Wait, what?
What's the problem?

We're not going
to have any food

for the festival.

What?

Mrs. Wallace
and the ladies from the church

are usually in charge

of the feast
and the cookies,

but they went to
Montpelier yesterday

for a book club,
and now...

And now
they can't get back

'cause the road
is closed.

Right, and even if
it got fixed tomorrow,

there still wouldn't
be enough time

for them to prepare
everything that we need.

[Allie]:
All right, all right,

there's got to be
something we can do.

Hold on a second.

I've got an idea.

Excuse me, everyone.

May I have
your attention, please?

Raise your hand
if you like to bake.

A couple more?

Anyone else?

Hey, what happened
to all the flour?

It's all over you.

I guess it is.

We're almost out
of butter, too.

You know what?

Take my keys.

Go on down to my parents'
restaurant.

My mom and dad

will have all the extra
supplies you need.

Zoe,

are you good hanging
here with Allie

for a little while?

Yeah.
Bye, dad!

Take that
as a yes.

Have fun!

[Allie]: And
in the meantime,

why don't I teach you

how to decorate
Christmas stockings?

Sure!

Come on!

[Mother]:
You got it?

Great, Carol.
Thanks so much.

Bye.

Making cookies
for Santa?

For the festival.

But it's nice
you're doing that.

Oh, it's the least
we could do.

Everyone's been so nice to us,

especially Allie.

I just wish there was something
I could do to return the favor.

Well,

a little bird told me

she doesn't have
a Christmas tree.

No, she doesn't.

Thank you...

Oh, hey...

I didn't catch
your name.

I'm Nick.

Merry Christmas.

Hmm.

[Zoe]:
You know what?

It's like
we're elves

in Santa's workshop!

You're right!

I told you
this would be fun.

It is.

Be sure to tell
dad, okay?

Why?

He doesn't like me to be sad.

He worries about that a lot
since mom died.

I just like
to let him know

that I'm okay.

But you know it's okay
to be sad sometimes, too, right?

Yeah...

And I am, sometimes...

And so is dad.

Well, I think that's normal...

But also, sometimes
you're happy, right?

Like when you think
about your mom,

you think about fun things
you two would do

during Christmas time?

Yeah.

My favorite was,

we'd find a Christmas thing
for each letter of the alphabet.

Me and dad
play it now.

I love that!

Wait, what would you do
for the letter "z"?

Zoe!

[Giggles]

What do you think?

I love it!
Look at this.

Who knew reindeer
liked candy canes?

- I'll glue 'em on.
- 'Kay.

[Doorbell rings]

Ooh, that's probably
your dad.

I'll put it on.

Spencer?

Surprise!

How did you get here?

Well...

Remember I told you
I had that partner

who was going to let us use
his helicopter?

You took a helicopter here?

Yep!

Landed just outside of town...
Took a cab here.

I mean, come on,
that's...

That's really
something, hey?

Yeah, that's...
Definitely something.

Look,
I don't totally understand

this whole "one last Christmas
in evergreen" thing,

but...

I couldn't bear the thought
of not spending it with you,

so here I am.

Perfect.

Sir?

[Sighs]

Grr...

Ahh...

[Grunts]

Hey, Michelle.

Hannah, why aren't you
home making fruitcake?

You're in charge
of fruitcake.

I finished.

Well, make
something else!

Half the town is cooking.

There's going to be enough food
for, like, five festivals.

There is no such
thing as "enough"

when it comes to
a Christmas feast.

Oh.

Okay, Michelle, um...

Do you want to have
a seat over here?

I think
you need to relax.

I can't.

I have too
much to do.

And there's plenty of time
to get it all done in.

It's going to be fine.

It can't be fine.

It has to be
incredible.

It will be.

You're doing an amazing job.

It's just...

Allie always made
everything look so easy.

Allie had a lot of help.

She didn't try to do
everything by herself.

Yeah.

Okay.

Well, maybe
I should go make a wish

on the Christmas snow globe.

You wouldn't be
the only one.

You made a wish?
What'd you wish for?

[Laughs] Okay.

I don't know
if you know this,

but I just love
Christmas.

No...
I didn't know.

Oh.
[Laughing]

Well...

This is going
to sound silly,

but...

I wished to find
someone special,

someone who loves
Christmas

as much as I do.

Well, that's not silly.
That's sweet.

Really?

I just figured,
what could it hurt, right?

I mean,
it's Christmas,

a time when
magical things happen.

How late is that diner open?
Come on.

[Giggles]

- [Spencer]: Thank you.
- [Allie]: Mm-hmm.

So you just brought this guy
and his kid back here?

Yeah, kind of.

It seemed
like the best option

at the time.

Right.

Listen,
did this have anything to do

with you wanting to stay
in evergreen for Christmas?

No! No, no, no.

No, that was all me.

Okay.

[Horn honks]

Oh! Dad's back!

Hey!

What do you think?

You got a
Christmas tree!

I can't believe
you got a Christmas tree.

Yeah, well,
it's for...

[Allie]:
Oh, this is Spencer.

Spencer, this is Ryan.

Spencer,
Washington, D.C. Spencer?

That's right.

He flew here
on a helicopter.

Really?
Can we borrow it?

Uh, no,
they just dropped me off.

Sorry, who's the tree for?

It's for Barbara,
at the inn.

But we just
got her a tree.

Right, but...

We got her a... a tree
for the... the living room,

and this...
This is a tree for the lobby.

This is
the lobby Christmas tree,

because at Christmas time,

you can never have too many
Christmas trees.

Am I right?

You're right.

[Ryan]:
So, listen, we should go.

The road might be open
tomorrow,

and, you know,
if that's the case,

we can get ready
to get on out of here.

- Right. Escape from evergreen!
- That's right.

[Allie]:
You know what?

Why don't you take my truck
with the tree in it

to Barbara's house,

and then we can just walk there

and see if she's got
a room for Spencer.

Thank you.
Yeah, that's a good idea.

Spencer,
nice to meet you.

You too.
Bye, Zoe.

Bye.

Great.

Let's go, kiddo.

Get on out of there.

You okay to walk?

Well, it's no helicopter,
but... sure.

Okay, I'll get
my coat.

[Zoe]: You know,

you really should have
gotten a tree

for Allie's house.

Yeah.

That would have been nice.

I really like her.

So do I.

[Allie]:
Still can't believe

you took a helicopter
to get here.

It's pretty cool, huh?

Doesn't it seem
a little extravagant?

It only seems that way because
you're not used to it yet.

Nah, you know me.

I have simple tastes.

I'm an evergreen girl.

And now you're going
to be a D.C. girl.

Yeah.

Come on, Allie.

Aren't you just
a little excited

about starting
your new life?

Aren't you happy
to finally be getting out

of this little town?

I love
this place.

I know it might not
seem like much to you,

but this is my hometown.

I mean, look around.

This is what Christmas
is supposed to look like.

I get it, okay?

I know that
you have a soft spot

for this place.

That's why I came
all the way here...

To be with you.

I know,
and I appreciate that,

but...

Aren't we supposed to be
taking things slow?

That's why I had to see you.

I don't need
to take things slow.

I know what I want.

The question is...

Do you?

Hey, uh,
how's it going?

Hey.

Was just checking
on some flights to D.C. here.

Coffee?

You're not taking
the helicopter back?

No, no, no.

That's a, uh,
favor we can only use one time.

Oh. We?

I thought Allie was staying here
for Christmas.

Uh, yeah, well, she was,
but we spoke last night,

and I'm kind of hoping
she might change her mind,

so...

Oh.
Well, that's, uh...

That's good.

Yeah.

Yeah, I think
that once we get to D.C.

And she gets settled
into her job,

it's going to be...
Smooth sailing, so...

Hello.

There she is!

[Laughs]

Hi.

Hi.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Hi.

Hi.

[Zoe]: Why is everybody
just standing around?

Uh, we should go...
To the diner.

Ezra was going
to stop by

and give us an update
of the roads...

On the roads...
About the roads.

Whatever.

Great.

Yeah...

Um... 'Kay.

'Kay.

Listen up,
everybody.

I have an update on
the road situation.

Is it open?

It's not...

[Sighing]

But...

It will be
by tomorrow night,

so we can have
the Christmas Eve festival

the next day as planned!

[Cheering]

Whoo-hoo!

Thank you.

You're going to love it.

Spencer flew in
on a helicopter?

Oh, mom, don't start.

I thought you said
it wasn't a big deal?

That's big.

It's not.

It was a small
helicopter.

What about Ryan?

What about Ryan?

Allison Louise,

I can tell
there's something

between you two.

It's not.
There's nothing.

There's nothing
happening,

and it's no big deal.

So, that's good news!

You'll be able
to head to Florida

after all.

Yes, yeah,
that's great news.

Right, Zoe?

Isn't that
great news?

Yeah, it's great.

I'm counting on you!

[Spencer]:
Well, this is terrific.

I mean, if the road opens
by tomorrow night,

we can still make it to D.C.
for Christmas...

I mean, if we decide
that's what we want to do,

of course.

Right. We just
have to decide.

[Spencer]:
right.

[Allie]:
Well...

Since we'll all be here
at least a little longer,

what do you want to do?

[Nick]:
Good afternoon.

Beautiful weather
for ice skating.

Can we go ice skating?

[Allie]: Oh!

Well, that sounds fun.

You know, there's
a gorgeous ice skating rink

in town.

- Shall we all go?
- Yeah!

That sounds great, yeah.
Why not?

I would love to,

but I've actually got
a conference call,

and it could take
a couple of hours...

But you guys go ahead,

and I'll just...

I'll catch up with you later.

Wait, really?
Are you sure?

Yeah.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Well, now we just need
to find y'all some skates.

Yes!

[Zoe]: I know!
It's sliding on the ice.

This is a lot of fun.
I have not skated in forever.

Years!

For me,
it's been years.

Has it?

So a lot more
recently than you.

I'm going
to take a break.

Okay, I'm going
to do that, too.

All right, have fun, Zoe!

I feel like
I'm flying!

[Laughing]

Does she ever get tired?

She would stay out here
all night

if we let her.

How can there be
that much energy

in that tiny little body?

Medically speaking,
it's impossible.

Nobody knows.

[Laughing]

Yeah...

Everything okay?

What? Yeah. Great.

'Cause if you want
to go be with Spencer,

I totally get it.

Oh, no, um,
this is fun,

and he's working anyway.

It's fine.

He seems like
a good guy.

He is.

You know,
I always...

I always thought

that we were
in the same place

even though we lived
far apart.

We always saw things
the same way,

wanted the same things,

but...

Now that we're going to be
living in the same place...

I don't know
if that's true anymore.

What do you want?

I mean, like,
for Christmas.

Like, like...
What's your wishlist

for Santa?

A pony.

Ah.

Probably more reliable
than your truck.

Hey, don't knock
my truck.

That's
my grandpa's truck.

I love that truck.

[Laughs]

So, to answer
your question,

what do I want...

Um...

I think I want...

To always feel

the way that I do
here in evergreen.

The feeling of home.

Exactly.

So, how about you?

What do you want?

That.

- [Zoe]: I can fly!
- [Ryan]: right there.

That's all I need.

[Laughs]

[Laughs]

[Zoe]: Come on, guys!

I'm going to go
check to see

if she has a battery
pack or something.

[Phone rings]

Yeah. I've got
a phone call.

Oh, it's Hannah. Hey!

Whoa, what's going on?

Yeah, he's right here.

Okay, all right.

Yeah, we'll be there
as soon as we can.

Okay, bye.

Is everything okay?

I'm so sorry to do this to you,
but we need a doctor.

[Ryan]:
Okay, so, what happened?

I don't know.

We were working
on the festival,

and then she started
to get all woozy.

Is she going to be okay?

No, I'm not okay.

Honey, just give
us a moment, okay?

Okay.

Thanks.

[Michelle] And the barn,
and then outside,

and in two days,

there's not enough time,
and we're supposed to be...

Okay, Michelle,
Michelle...

Just need you
to breathe, okay?

I don't have time
to breathe!

Michelle,

do you remember
the twelve days of Christmas?

♪ On the twelfth day
of Christmas ♪

♪ My true love gave to me ♪

What was it?

Drummers.

Twelve drummers
drumming, right?

That's right, that's right.
Okay, what's next?

Pipers piping.
Eleven.

Great, okay.
Keep going.

I don't know ten.
I don't know it.

Lords.

Lords.
Ten lords a-leaping.

Um... uh...

Then it's nine
ladies dancing,

and eight maids
a-milking, right?

Swans, geese,

uh, five golden rings,

four calling birds,

three French hens,

two turtle doves...

♪ And a partridge
in a pear tree ♪

[Laughing]

Great.
How do you feel?

Better.

What'd you do?

You were having a panic attack,

and counting
is one of the things

that can alleviate it.

I just thought we'd stick
to a Christmas theme.

Are you okay?

Yes, I am. I just...

I was really crazy
to think that I could do this

as well as you've done
for so long.

Oh, don't say that.
This is amazing.

[Ryan]: Hey, let me
tell you something.

I have never seen
a group of people

more dedicated
to anything in my life.

The way you have pulled
everyone together

and turned this place
into...

I mean, come on,
look at this!

This is what
Christmas is all about.

It's true.

The festival
is going to be great...

And it's all because of you.

Thanks, doc.

Hello, you two.

Homemade
Christmas cookies.

Thank you very much.

Allie's a very good
Baker, too, by the way.

Oh!

Yes...

Hey, everybody!

Ezra just called,

and great news...

The road will be cleared
tonight!

[Cheering]

Yes!

I thought we had a deal.

What's wrong, Zoe?

Well, I made a wish
on the snow globe,

and I thought
it was coming true,

but now I'm not so sure.

Oh.

Well, was it something
your heart truly wanted?

Yes!

My whole body wanted it,
even my toes.

Ha ha ha!

In that case,

I don't think you have
anything to worry about.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

You just have to be patient.

Wishes are like
Christmas cookies.

It sometimes takes a while
for them to be fully baked.

[Ryan]: Zoe?

Hi.

Hi!

Kiddo, our cocoa's
getting cold.

What about you, Ryan?

Have you changed your mind
about making a Christmas wish?

Uh, no.

No, I don't really believe
in that sort of thing.

You know, people get busy,

and they forget about the magic
of the holidays,

but all they
have to do

is stop for
a moment

and open
their eyes...

Because that magic...

It's all around us.

So you can just take
the truck

and return the keys
to Barbara.

Okay, thanks.

Yeah, mm-hmm.

This really is a special place.

Yeah.

It really is.

So, you're all set?

We are, yeah.

Off to Florida.

And that's
what you wanted, right?

Yeah...

And you,
you're off to D.C.?

Yeah.
That's the plan.

Looks like we both got
what we wanted.

Looks like it.

Ryan...

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Allie...

I... I wanted to...

Um...

[Zoe]: Hey!
Allie!

Will you promise
to send me

pictures of
the festival?

I want to see the
stockings, the choir,

and the tree.

Don't forget the tree.

Well, I won't,
I promise.

It's the only tree
I have this year!

Merry Christmas, Zoe.

Merry Christmas,
Allie.

Merry Christmas, Ryan.

Merry Christmas, Allie.

[Zoe]: Dad?

Yeah?

Where is Santa going to leave
all of Allie's presents

if she doesn't even have a tree?

[Nick]:
Good evening.

Good evening.

Are you ready
for the Christmas festival?

Yes, I am.

Ready
for the Christmas festival.

Are you?

I'm definitely ready
for Christmas.

It's a time
when wishes come true.

I always thought that.

But you don't anymore?

No, I, I'll always believe
in Christmas wishes,

but...

What if you don't know
what to wish for?

Is this about
leaving evergreen?

Ah...

Or Spencer?

How did you know that?

It's amazing what you learn

sitting at a table
in the town diner.

Oh, right.
Of course.

Um...

Well, I think it's...
It's kind of about both.

So what did you wish for
on the snow globe?

Well, I wished

that everyone that I love
have a merry Christmas,

even though
we can't be together.

And yet here you are,
in evergreen,

with all the people you love.

But I'm supposed
to be in Washington, D.C.

The further away you are
from where you started...

[Both]: The closer you get
to where you belong.

Sometimes, you end up
right back where you started

because that's the place
you're supposed to be.

Oh, my dear.

Oh...

There, there.

Good night.

Good night.

Hey!

Spencer,
what are you doing here?

Well, I wanted
to stop by.

I figure if we leave
first thing in the morning,

we can still get
to the airport

and make it to the firm's
Christmas Eve party on time.

The swanky one?

Yeah, the swanky one.

Um...

Allie, what's wrong?

Don't you want
to go to D.C.?

I'm so sorry,
Spencer.

I think
I want to stay here.

For Christmas, or...?

For Christmas and...

I don't know...

But why don't you
stay here for Christmas?

I love this place,
and I love these people,

and I want you
to understand why.

Allie, I love Washington, D.C.,

and I love my job,

and the people that I work with
are really great.

I mean, that's where I belong.

Spencer, I don't think
it was just the distance

that was getting in our way.

Allie, don't do this, okay?
Please.

You do belong
in Washington, D.C.,

and I don't.

I belong here.

But what about your new job?

I love my job here.

I get to take care
of tiny little puppies,

and I get to birth calves.

That's incredible...

And I have family
and friends

and Christmas
in a place that I love.

Listen,
I think you're just nervous

about making such a big change.

Well, see, that's the thing.

I think I thought I was ready
for this big change,

and I am,

but I think I thought
I had to leave evergreen

in order to find it.

I kept telling myself
I needed more.

Everything I needed
was right here all along.

What can I do to convince you
that I'm right about this?

I think you'd be trying
to convince yourself.

Merry Christmas, Spencer.

Merry Christmas, Allie.

[Ryan]: Allie...
Zoe was worried

that Santa might not have
a place to put your presents

if you didn't have a tree.

We hope you get everything
you want for Christmas...

even the pony.

Thank you for everything.

Ryan and Zoe.

Home sweet home.

[Allie]:
Hi, mom.

Welcome back, Frank.

So...

Have you
talked to him?

Oh, he went back to D.C.

Oh, honey, not Spencer.

Ryan.

Why would I talk to Ryan?

Allie, he bought you a tree!

In fact, he bought
you two trees,

if you count the one
at Barbara's.

Mom, it is not like that.

I know.

I know...

And, uh,

I'm not saying

that whatever happened
with Spencer

had anything
to do with Ryan.

I mean, those are two
totally different things,

but Allie...

They are both things,

and I just want
to make sure

that you're...

Okay with how
both of them ended.

They might not have left yet.

I love you.

Hurry!

Hello?

Allie!

Hi, what are you
doing here?

I was just hoping to catch
Ryan and Zoe before they left.

Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie.

The cab picked them up
about an hour ago.

They're probably
at the airport by now.

Oh.

[Announcer]:
Ladies and gentlemen

in the boarding area
for flight 993,

we have been informed

that there is a small
mechanical issue on the plane,

and we need to delay boarding.

I apologize
for the inconvenience.

Boy, that sounds familiar, huh?

We should go back
to evergreen.

Zoe, the flight's
delayed.

It isn't canceled.

So if it gets canceled,

we can go back
to evergreen?

No, honey.

I want a ruling
from the judges.

[Chuckles]
Sorry, kiddo.

They're with me
on this one.

Don't you miss it already?

Don't you miss Allie?

She isn't
mine to miss.

Come here.

Aw, thanks.

I think we actually

with the help of
a snow globe, of course...

Of course.

And Hanna,
what about you?

Any developments
on this wish you had?

Oh, no!

It was just a silly
little wish, anyway.

Oh, I'm so sorry!

Sorry.

Hey! [Laughs]

I'm Hannah.

Charlie.

Hi.

Did you want to get
some hot chocolate

or apple cider?

Yeah,
I'd love that.

Great.

[Carol]: Oh, merry
Christmas, everyone!

Oh, it's just magical.

Merry Christmas.

Henry, thank
you so much

for letting us
have the festival here.

You saved Christmas!

Oh, no.

You think?

Michelle, everything
looks amazing.

Oh, thanks.

Isn't it amazing, Ezra?

Well, actually, there's...

Not a single thing
I'd change.

There you go.

And I just heard
the great news

that evergreen's
veterinarian

is staying put.

Yes...
Yes, she is.

Just wish we could've convinced
that doctor to stay.

[Allie]:
Yeah...

Me too.

He's probably in Florida
by now.

[Nick]:
Ho, ho, ho!

Merry Christmas!

[Applause]

Whoo-hoo!

Santa has presents!

Children first.

It shouldn't be
too much longer, kiddo.

It's okay, dad.

I'm going to go
see what's going on.

I'll be right back.

Thank you.

- Oh... Spencer?
- Hey.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Uh, still trying
to get to Florida.

You? Same?

Yeah, still trying
to get to D.C.

Seems like all the flights
are booked, though.

Yeah.

Is, um, Allie here?

Uh, no.

No, she's, uh...
She's staying in evergreen...

Permanently.

Oh.

Um... I'm really sorry.

Thanks. I...

Thank you.

Well, I'm going to try
the other airlines,

see if I have
any better luck.

Uh, merry Christmas.

Yeah, merry Christmas.

What's wrong, dad?

Nothing.

This Christmas...

It's been the best!

Really?
You think so?

It felt like Christmas again.

Like before mom.

Yeah.

I guess...
I guess it did.

I just don't understand
why the snow globe didn't work.

What did you wish for?

That we could have
Christmas in evergreen...

But Florida will be great, too.

Did you make a wish?

I did.

I wished for a merry Christmas.

And did it come true?

Zoe, as long as I'm with you,

it is going to be
a very merry Christmas.

So your wish came true.

I wonder
why mine didn't?

[Announcer]:
Attention in the gate area,

all passengers
for flight 967 to Orlando.

I'm sorry to tell you

that we are having
some mechanical difficulties

with the airplane,

and at this point,
it looks like

we are going to have
to cancel the flight.

Merry Christmas,
Allie.

Oh, merry Christmas, Santa.

You were great
in there.

The kids love you.

They are the true spirit
of Christmas...

But I have to ask you,

did your Christmas wish
come true?

Oh, I think it did.

Yeah, maybe not in the way
that I'd hoped, but...

I think I learned something.

And what's that, my dear?

Sometimes, you end up exactly
where you're supposed to be.

I guess

that's why it's called
Christmas magic.

[Chuckles]

Maybe.

Can I offer you a ride
into town?

No.

I have my own transportation.

Okay.

[Zoe]: Allie!

You came back!

We missed you.

I missed you, too.

[Hannah]: Zoe?
You're here.

Do you want to be
in the choir still?

We go on in
a couple minutes.

Can I, dad?

Go have fun.

What are you doing here?

Heard you may be looking
for a small-town doctor.

Oh, careful.

You don't want Ezra
to hear you say that.

He'll never let you leave.

Did your flight get
canceled again?

Yes... [laughs]

But that's not
why we came back.

It's not?

No.

This has been
a completely unexpected,

amazing, magical Christmas

for both Zoe and me...

Because of you.

I'm not moving
to Washington D.C.

I know.

How?

Because this is where
you're supposed to be...

And Allie,

I don't know if this is where
I'm supposed to be or not,

but...

I need to find out.

Because something

keeps bringing me back here.

Is it...
A magical Christmas snow globe?

Maybe.

[Bells jingling]

[Nick]:
Ho, ho, ho!

Merry Christmas!

Whoo-hoo!

[Narrator]: The Christmas feast
that year

was truly special.

Surrounded by family and friends
old and new,

the spirit of the holidays
was all around them,

and it lived on

for many yuletide seasons
to come...

But perhaps these are stories
for another time.

Until then, hold tight
to the magic of Christmas.

You never know

when the next wish
might come true.

A toast!

[All]: A toast!

A toast to family,
to friends,

and to evergreen.

Merry Christmas!

[All]: Merry Christmas!

[Happy chatter]
