All language subtitles for Christmas.in.Evergreen-Letters.to.Santa (2018)

Deep in the valleys of Vermont,

there's a town called
"Evergreen,"

where...

Now, storybook
let's not rush things.

I was just getting to that.

Our story starts in a city
that's not so far away.

A place bustling with the busy
rush of Christmas shoppers.

Does this line up?

Yeah, perfectly.

I've got to start over.

Good. I thought we were actually
going to be done in time

to get dinner.

You know, symmetry is just...

Lazy design?
Yes, I know.

Yup.

When we open our own store,

everything's gonna have to be
just slightly off-kilter.

Yet, impeccably designed.

...and locally sourced.

Tree really does look great.

Yeah. Yeah, it does.

Wait, do you think we need
a second tree back there?

You know what?

I was just thinking that.

I mean, it would pull the eye
of the customer back that way.

Yeah, and that's where the most
expensive items are.

We need a second tree.

- Second tree.
- Yeah.

There's Polly.

Hi!

Hello!

Come on in.

It looks amazing in here!

Oh my gosh!

Yeah, we pulled the counter
to the side of the store.

Which opens up the flow from the
door to the rest of the store.

And you redesigned
the entire shelving unit.

It looks great over there.

Oh my.

And to top it all off,
you decorated for Christmas.

Is that a partridge?

In a pear tree.
Yes, it is.

And, we have, two turtle doves,
three French hens,

four calling birds, and...

five golden rings.

It's just a little service
that we throw in for jobs

this time of year.

You two are the best at
redesigning stores like this.

Have you ever thought of opening
your own store?

- Well, in fact, yes.
- Eventually.

Yes.

Eventually.

Yes.

Well, you know I'm expanding,
right?

I plan to open three new stores
in the new year.

That's... that's great.

Where you thinkin'?

I'm still searching
for locations,

but I would love to have your
expertise in designing them,

if you're free for more work.

Yes!

- Yeah!
- Yeah.

Of course, we would love to help
in any way we can.

Oh, wonderful!

Oh, my goodness look at this.

Bye Polly.

See ya.

You know, if we keep
getting work at this rate,

we'll be able to open up
our own store

in less than two years.

Yeah, the very best in home
decoration and design.

Custom kitchen wear, fixtures,
design accessories.

Everything you need to turn
your house into a home.

What?

Nothing, it's just...

I love what we do.

We get to travel around,
and redesign spaces, and...

I know. I know.

But I mean, hey.

We've been together through
every business decision,

every terrible date.

Look, all I'm saying is that
I'm just not sure

I'm ready to put down roots
and stay in one place.

Speaking of which,
someone has their final

New Years' resolution from last
year to take care of,

and time is ticking!

Hey, every year we make these
resolution lists,

and every year you have
the same goal.

I know, visit my hometown
for Christmas.

I know, I know.

But what if it's not the same
as I remember as a kid?

Well then, either way,
you'll cross it off your list!

But I was just thinking
that maybe I should wait

for my parents to go...

But your parents are
in Europe...

and working.

Now you can go back
to your hometown.

Let me show you.

Look.

That's what it is.

Yeah, it's gorgeous.

Isn't it cute?

Yeah.

Okay, come on.

Drive off to this almost
real-life Santa's Village,

take a quick look, and then
come back to Boston

in time for Christmas Eve
dinner.

And by the looks of that town,

you'll be dressed up
as one of Santa's elves,

and handing out candy canes.

You know, I think
you underestimate

how good I would be as one of
Santa's helpers.

I don't think I am.

Now, get on the road.

Have fun, enjoy.
Hey...

What's the name of the town,
again?

Evergreen.

You having trouble
with your truck?

It's not my truck.

Was it stolen?

No, it's on loan from a friend.

Ooh, you broke your
friend's truck?

I didn't break it,
it was already...

Hey, it looks to me like it's...

You're just messing with me.

I am, I am.

No, seriously.

Can I do something to help?

How are you with old engines?

Astonishingly good.

Really?

Yeah.

Okay.

Thank you.

Okay, all right.

What have we got here?

Have you tried this?

Yep.

Okay. What about this?

Twice.

Bet you have not tried...

Yeah, I tried that.
Didn't seem to work.

Okay. All right.

Let me just...

Do you mind if I try
to start it?

No, go for it.

It's a beautiful old truck.

Yeah, isn't it?

Yeah.

All right.

Hold on a second.

Yeah.

Okay, try it again?

Hey!

Teamwork, huh?

Yeah!

Although, I contend I did most
of the work,

and most of that
before you got here.

That is fair, that is fair.

However, had I not come along,

you'd still be standing here

with your little feet
in the snow.

Also fair.

You heading into Evergreen?

Am I that obvious?

Christmas tourist, snow globe.

Lucky guess.

It's the only road in
and out of town.

Yeah.

Oh. Oh yeah, there's that, huh?

There is that.

Well...

Thanks.

You're welcome!

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas and all that.

Welcome to Evergreen!

Thanks.

Dear Santa.

This year for Christmas,
I would like...

I seem to give away more
candy-canes away every year.

I remember when your parents
would come in for them.

Here you go.

Did you write your Christmas
letter to Santa?

Yes.

Thanks for coming, Henry.

The storeroom shelf needs
a little patch.

Sure thing, Daisy.

Did you put your truest
Christmas wish in your letter?

Maybe.

Are you sure I can read it?

"Dear Santa.

"This year for Christmas,

"I want to have Christmas
in Evergreen every year."

Is that your truest wish?

Well, we're moving away,
and I'm excited, but...

I love Evergreen, so...

Lisa, what about this?

What if instead of saying
you'd like to have Christmas

in Evergreen every year,

you'd like to have Christmas
like it is in Evergreen.

That way, wherever you go,

you can always feel
the warmth of home.

Every year.

Excuse me.

Can you tell me what happened
to Daisy's store?

They closed.

A little over a year ago.

It's a shame.

I... I loved that place.

Truly, it was the anchor
of town.

Made of joy, that place.

Yeah...

And Daisy?

Daisy... passed away
this year.

I'm sorry.

What, did you know her?

Well, only sort of.

I mean, I was actually
born here,

but then we moved away
when I was about seven.

You probably went
to Kindergarten

with my daughter, Allie.

Always wore pigtails,
always chasing animals?

Oddly enough, I do have
a memory of that, yes!

Lisa Palmer.

Palmer. Were your
parents scientists?

No, military? Right?

Right on both accounts.

You have a great memory.

I'm Carol, and this is
my husband Joe.

We own the Kringle Kitchen.

Hi.

Nice to meet you.

You guys own
the Kringle Kitchen.

Love this place.

And the snow globe's still here!

It sure is, granting wishes
by the dozen.

We get a lot of people
from all over

coming to our
Christmas Eve festival.

Kevin.

Hey!

My vegetables.

Yes.

Hey, sorry I'm late, Joe.

Had to deliver a few more trees.

I'll take these in.

Oh, sure.

Lisa, this is Kevin.

We met on the road.

She is an astonishingly
good mechanic.

I gave him a little help
with the truck.

It was my Dad's.

Now it belongs to my daughter.

She's in Florida visiting
her boyfriend's family.

Come back for dinner!

Yeah, I will.

'Kay?

See ya, Joe.

- See ya later, Carol.
- Hey, Kev.

We've got to stop running
into each other like this.

Yeah.

Townspeople are gonna start
to talk.

It's what they do best.

Well, that and harmonize

the last three bars of
any Christmas carol.

See ya.

Bye.

Those are beautiful.

I meant to get those up, but...

No, no, no.
No, no worries.

They're gorgeous.

Are they hand-blown?

Yeah!

Did you... make them?

I did! Thank you.

I'm Megan.

Nice to meet you.

I actually have a reservation.

- Lisa Palmer.
- Yeah.

You'll be in Room 8.

I'm Hannah, by the way.

Hi, Hannah.
Nice to meet you.

Good, you brought the tree.

Seriously?

It's getting a little weird.

Yeah, I don't know
who's following who.

I'll get this tree
set up for you.

Thank you!

Ma'am.

Sir.

So, you've met Kevin already.

Yeah, yeah...

Like three times today.

All packed up?

Why so sad?

You're on your way to a new home

and that's an awfully
big adventure.

But I don't want a new home.

How will Santa know
how to find us?

Lisa.

Santa knows how to find
all boys and girls.

No matter where you go,
Christmas will find you.

You have a good trip,
and mind your parents.

And come back to visit
us soon, okay?

Off you go.

Hey Lisa!

I didn't want you to have
to eat alone.

You're so sweet.

I hear you went to elementary
school here.

Yeah.

I'm actually the principal
of the elementary school now.

I'm Michelle.

Cool.

And this is...

Ezra. I'm the mayor
of Evergreen.

Nice to meet you...

The mayor!

Well, I have to tell you,
your little town

is the dictionary definition
of charming.

It is really great.

Well, let's hope we can keep
it that way.

Ezra.

Why would you say that?

Sorry, I've been distracted.

Trying to get the general store
sold has been weighing on me.

Ezra.

No business at the dinner table.

There is no stress
in the Kringle Kitchen.

Unless we get the general
store sold,

we could end up with a chain
store, or... fast food.

It would put smaller places
like this out of business,

our tourism trade could dry up.

But mainly, Evergreen
wouldn't be so...

Evergreen.

And, who owns Daisy's store now?

I do.
Daisy was my godmother.

Sorry.

Anyway, looking to sell it.

Let me just take a look
at something.

Well, it could use
a good staging.

Staging?

It, staging.

It's like when you're going
to sell a house,

you add furniture and paint
a few walls.

Just to make it more attractive
to the potential buyer.

Could you do that to a store?

Yeah.

During an early snowstorm,
the roof practically caved in.

We're going to have
to fix that beam.

Need to brighten the place up,

put some Christmas
decorations...

if you want to sell it
that quickly.

Quick is what we're after.

If I can't sell by the end
of the year,

the store's going back
to the bank.

They've already said
that they'd repossess it.

Well, I won't lie, I mean,
it's not going to be easy.

But I have seen places in worse
conditions turned around

on tighter schedules.

All right.

Tell you what I'll do.

Point me in the direction of
your town's best contractor.

I'll get this place fixed up
and ready to sell by Christmas.

Kevin...

is a contractor.

Of course he is.

But he's only in town
for a week,

staying with his dad.

Well, I mean, I don't really
need more than a week,

I don't think.

Well, he's good.

Very precise.

Kevin!

Hi!

Let's just say that I was
getting ready to start a project

and I needed someone...
handy with tools.

You gonna buy Daisy's store?

No, no, no, no, no.

I'm just gonna fix it up
for Christmas

and get it ready for a buyer.

No, no, no, no.

Just throwing up a few
decorations won't help.

That place needs a lot of work.

I know...

Which is why I need someone
to help me do that.

And you think I'm your man?

Well, I have no idea
if you're my man,

but I'm willing to bet that
you care about this place

just as much as any of these
other people.

I do. Why do you care?

I don't know,

because I have some pretty
special memories here too.

Look, take a week
and help me do this.

I'm sorry, I...

Look, it... it just...
It's not enough time

to get it done right.

What are you talking about,
of course we have enough time.

I mean, I have tons
of experience,

and I'm sure that you...

have some experience too, right?

Yeah, I...

Yes.

Look, I... I... I started off

doing freelance construction
gigs,

I over time people realized
I was pretty good

at leading a team,

a good eye for detail,
that kind of thing.

And after a while word got around,
now I get calls from all over.

People bring me in as a kind
of foreman-for-hire.

Just finished a library
in Denver.

See, you're perfect for this!

But look, even if you had a
whole fleet of magical helpers...

Which I don't.

But I'm willing to bet
that you know some people.

Yeah, who I'd have a hard time
getting to work

over the holidays.

Not if you told them
that it's a Christmas gift

for the entire town.

You are really persistent.

Yes, I am, I am.

Okay, so then what's in it for you,
if you don't mind me asking.

I don't know. I guess it just
feels like something

I should do.

And, plus, I was told that
you are the best contractor

in this town.

I am the only contractor
in this town.

Yeah, there is that.

Look, I can promise you
we will be fast.

No, no, no.

If we're going to do this,

it can't be rushed
or thrown together.

No, no, no.

Not rushed or thrown together.
We work fast, but smart.

Deal?

Deal.

What can I get for you?

Good morning.

I would love a peppermint
hot cocoa please.

Right in on the Christmas
spirit, good for you.

And what can I get for you,
Kevin?

Coffee, just black.

Please.

What?

T'is the season, Kevin.

Yeah. Live a little.

Okay, fine.

Coffee with whipped cream, then.

Caramel?

No. Wait... Yes?

Yes. Yes. Please.

Okay, so I want to get
some decorations,

and I would love to stop by
a Christmas tree lot.

Do you guys have one of those?

We have five.

You have five?

Yeah, it's gonna be
a tough choice,

but I'll probably push
for the one my dad runs.

Yeah, I think that's pretty much
a safe bet.

Yeah, he'll appreciate that.

And you know what, I was
thinking we could use a tree

on the outside and then a
smaller one on the inside.

Don't you think two trees
is a bit much?

Ambition is the key to success.

And here you go.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you.

Thanks Joe.

Thank you.

All right, and first thing's
first,

we need a good window display
and supplies.

I got a guy.

Okay, so I'd like to get
some pine garland.

Lots of white paint.

Sure.

And some wainscotting.

Don't you just love how hardware
stores have these boxes

full of stuff they just don't
know what to do with?

Oh yeah, I try to raid these
wherever I go.

You do, too?

Yeah.

I love it! You never know what
you're gonna find.

What are all these keys?

Well, we don't know
what they actually go to,

but you know every time
you throw out a key,

you find a lock
that it might fit.

What about this one?

Been here long before my day.

Look, anything you...
you find here in these boxes

for a nickel a piece.

Are you sure?

Christmas discount.

Deal!

They're sweet together.

Yeah.

Don't go stirring the pot,
Carol.

I do not stir the pot, Joe.

Carol Shaw, you tried
to set me up

with no less than three people,
last year alone.

Yes.

But I stopped.

As soon as you told me
you weren't interested.

Yeah, right.

Hey guys!

Hey, welcome back.

Yeah, you remember my brother
Thomas and my nephew David.

Yes of course, Thomas.

Good to have you back.

It's good to be back.

We missed the Kringle Kitchen

and your incredible
apple dumplings.

Why thank you.

Thomas...

Have you met Michelle?

The famous Michelle.

Anna talks about you
all the time,

and somehow we haven't met.

Yeah.

Always miss each other when
you're in town, I guess, yeah.

Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you.

Well come on and take
your coat off,

and have a seat right next
to Michelle.

And let's bring this table over
here and get you all cozy, too.

It's good, it's just not
perfect here.

Put this up.
It's better right?

Now, it's even.

No, no, just hang it...

So, Thomas.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you
and David spend Christmas here

every other year, right?

Yes, my ex-wife and I,
we trade off Christmases, yeah.

I see.

Hey, Lisa!

Hey.

Why don't you come join us?

This is my brother Thomas,
and my nephew David.

Hi, it's nice to meet you.

Hi.

So, how's the store
update coming?

Well...

Well, it's a work in progress.

We're getting there.

What's that?

This?

This is a key that Kevin and I
found at the hardware store.

Still haven't found a place
to put it, though.

Where does it go to?

Well, now that is a very,
very good question.

I don't know.

It could go to anything
in this town, really.

It's kind of like
a little puzzle.

Well... how are you going
to figure it out?

Sounds like you'd have to try
every keyhole in town.

Right?

I mean, sounds like a lot
of work, huh?

I mean, I just imagine all the
locks that this key could open.

I just wish I had somebody...

that would maybe be...

Wait a minute, would...
would... would you want to try?

Yes!

Yeah!

Yeah?

Okay.

I mean, can I?

Yeah, yeah. Go for it.

There you go.

Good luck.

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Where should we start,
Aunt Hannah?

Me? Maybe we start
in town hall?

Hot apple dumplings!
No calories.

Yes, yes, yes.

Oh, Carol.

I need to ask you somethin'.

So, Kevin and I thought
it might be a good idea

to keep this safe.

So we were hoping that maybe you
would let us keep it over here.

We'll find room, of course.

What's this?

Looks like a...
It's a... it's a...

Looks like it's a letter
to Santa.

Maybe it got stuck under there.

It's... it's old, though.

You gonna read it?

Well...

I mean, that's someone's
Christmas wish.

Yeah?

I would definitely open it.

Looks like it's already open.

Well, well, yeah, it's open,

but it's a matter or not whether
we read it or we don't.

All in favour?

Come on.

Okay, alright...

Let's see... It's typed,
and it's dated.

That's... that's 25
years old!

That's been in that store
that long.

Okay. It says "Dear Santa,
tis year I ust want a Chr..."

Wait a minute, wait a minute,
it looks like some of the letters

didn't work very well
on the typewriter.

The... the H and the J.

Right.

Okay, so let me try this again.

Okay.

"Dear Santa, this year I just
want Christmas like

"it used to be.

"I'm sure you know it's been
a tough year.

"It would be nice to have
Christmas like it used to be,

"with the candles and the carols
and the bells.

"This Christmas, just this once,

"I want it to go back
to the way it was.

"Best wishes, K.M."

Who's K.M?

Kevin Miller.

Shop's looking good they say.

So is that.

Why thank you Kevin.

And, the ca... candles
and the carols and the bells.

What is that talking about?

That's all the stuff we used
to do in the town,

and before Daisy was the main
Christmas event planner,

Ruth Miller was.

And Ruth Miller is...

Was.

Kevin's mom.

And his letter never made
it to Santa.

No, it didn't.

I'm usually out managing a job

until just before Christmas,
so...

Hey guys!

Hey.

Hey.

What is all this stuff?

Every year at the Christmas
festival,

we have a local arts
and crafts fair.

Yeah, and we bring all of
our stuff down here

before we set up the booths.

Like these...

are my hats!

Cute.

That's nice.

There's a lot of good stuff
in here.

This is one of the oldest
buildings in Evergreen.

I've tried the key
on all the locks.

So far, nothing.

Beautiful.

Yeah.

Daisy always wanted to get
these bells working again.

My dad tried for a while.

Nobody knows exactly what's
wrong with the mechanism.

C'mon Aunt Hannah.

Let's go see if the people
at the bank know.

See you guys later.

See you guys.

Bye.

You know, you said
you were born here.

Do you remember
the bells ringing?

- It was so long ago.
- Yeah.

It's all hazy.

We moved around
to so many towns,

I mean, they kind of
all blend together.

However, I do remember Evergreen
the most.

Yeah, I remember the snow globe,
and the mailbox.

I remember Daisy.

Yeah, Daisy, she's the one
who took over

all the Christmas planning and
the festival after my mom...

Let's get these wreathes hung?

Sooner we get back to the store,
get it done,

the sooner we can get on
with our lives.

Sure.

I just need to make
one more stop.

Okay.

Thank you, ladies.

What's going on in here?

It smells so good in here.

That's a lot of cookies!

Yeah!

Wanna help us?

I don't think we have time.

Well, actually, I have
to ask you a question, Megan.

But Kevin here I'm sure
would like to help.

Sure.

I like your... crown?

Actually, no, no, it's a...

It is a reindeer.

A reindeer. Okay.

Yeah, I am genuinely
terrible at decorating cookies.

Yeah.

It would only be for a few days,
I just want the store

to have some Christmas
decorations, you know.

So what I would do
is I'd put these

and the garlands
around the door.

I mean, I have a lot of them,
so you're welcome to take some.

Thank you.

You're welcome!

They're having a lot of fun
in here without us.

Okay, ready to go?

Okay, should we head back?

Yeah.

Why would you do that?

We still have a lot of painting
and decorating to do.

Isn't frosting cookies painting
and decorating rolled into one?

Okay, yeah, sure!

I think he's got you there.

All right, fine.

We'll do three cookies each,
then we get out of here.

All right. Deal.

Awesome!

So, how are you enjoying
Evergreen?

It's...

it's very homey.

Well, you know Evergreen has a
way of keeping people in town.

Mostly...

Hey! I go where the work is.

Yeah, well don't I know.

I've been trying to get him for
years to work on my operation

and my logging site in Maine.

Maine, huh?

Yeah, I'm thinking about it.

Well, I've got some expanding
to do.

Trying to get a travelling man

to settle into our
permanent post,

it's proving tricky.

I promise I'll let you
know soon.

A job worth doing.

How's this?

That is supposed to be
an elf, right?

Yes!

Yes it is!

Thank you very much.

Thank you. Success.

Hey. The guy's got
the beam up and secured.

Looks like we're all set.

Okay.

Alright.

Hey, they did a nice job.

Yeah, they did, it looks great!

Yeah, it's terrific.

I'm...

Oh no!

What?

It's not that bad.

You just cover it up
with some plywood,

a couple coats of paint.

Could be damaged on the inside,

maybe the pipes.

I suppose we want to open up
that wall.

Yeah, wouldn't you?

Well, I mean yeah, we can't risk

there being water damage, but...

It's gonna be extra labour.

We might have to bring in
a plumber.

Do we have time for that?

If a pipe bursts,

it's going to take twice as long
and cost twice as much!

I know, I'm agreeing
with you,

I'm not saying we cut corners.

Aren't you?

Well... No, I...

It seems like you are.

This place looks a lot better.

Well, I mean we're not,
we're not done yet...

See, that's what I wanted
to see you about.

I know you had a few more days
before you were ready,

but the buyer called today

and she said that she can only
look at the place...

tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

No, Ezra, there are repairs
we've gotta take care of

before we can even think about...

I think we can.

Look, I appreciate
the enthusiasm, I... I do.

I just don't see how we can.

I don't see how we can't try.

All right.

All right, let's see what
we can do.

I appreciate it.

So, if you just wanna...

start on the wall, I'll get
started on the shelves.

Yeah, sure.

Yeah.

I still say that we need a tree
indoor and out.

I still say that's
too many trees.

Look, we get overly ambitious,
we run out of time?

One of them just ends up
looking sloppy.

Sloppy.

I see your point.

Hey Dad. This is Lisa.

It's Lisa!

Hey.

A town this small, you
can't keep anything very quiet.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you,
Mr. Miller.

You can call me Henry.

Okay, all right, Henry.

Well, Henry, you have
a gorgeous barn.

Why thank you.

My wife Ruth and I,

we used to run the whole farm,
single-handedly.

Yeah?

Look at this old typewriter.

Kevin used to pound away
on this thing.

Despite it not working properly.

Typewriters make such
great noises.

Yeah.

Okay, so, Henry?

We need a Fraser Fir.

You're in luck.

Ordered too many of those.
Right this way.

So, you're busy putting
Daisy's shop together?

Well, your son here is doing
all the work.

I just stand around
looking bossy.

You should stop by sometime.

Yeah...

I'm pretty busy here, and...

The tree's just right over here.

Are you comin'?

Yeah.

I love it, it's perfect!

I don't know about perfect,

it's got a bare spot
on one side.

Some of them do, that's
just the way trees are.

You just put the bald spot
in the corner.

There is no corner.
We're putting it in front of...

Yeah, but we could just
put it in front of a wall.

Son, you know, you've got
the best eye of anyone I know.

Makes you a great contractor.

But, sometimes you've
just gotta... slow down.

All right, it'll do.

It's fine.

We are in luck!

Found these in the back
with the ornaments.

Right.

All right.

Here we go...

Thanks.

I've got some more work
to do inside,

unless you need me to...

No, no, no. I got it.

We're going to be pressed
for time as it is.

I just hope these work.

Watch this.

Did you test these?

Magic!

Nicely done.

Here, let me help you with this.

Cool.

It can get a little tricky.

Here you go.

So...

your dad.

Yeah.

We...

I spend a lot of time not
coming home for Christmas.

You know, it just never was
the same without my mom.

For either one of us.

So, we avoided it
for a long time.

Past couple years
I've been trying to come.

Trying to be here.

My dad's getting older...

How's that been coming along?

Well...

It can get kinda...

"Father and Son" about things,
you know.

Yeah.

I guess I was just gone
for so long we...

we had this idea
of who the other one is.

You know?

Yeah. Yeah, I do know.

Everyone's always telling me
they wish

I'd "put down some roots."

It's all I ever hear.

But you know, we moved around
a lot when I was a kid,

I guess that's just really
what I'm used to.

Well yeah, plus, it's great
to travel for work.

- Right?
- Right.

New cities, new people.

Yeah. You get to try out all the
best burgers in any given town.

Right? I do that all the time.

You too?

Yeah.

There you go.

Hold on, I've got a snag.

Here.

If you just wanna...

Here. Can you grab this?

Yeah. I got it on this side.

Thanks.

Come on...

I think we need a really
old door.

How about Daisy's store?

That's a great idea.

Yeah!

Okay.

Okay.

Hey, guys!

Hey!

We were just trying the key
on Daisy's door,

and it's not working.

But, it looks like you could
use some help?

Yes.

Yes, you can definitely help
Kevin with this tree.

Come on.

I have to go inside to finish up
the decorations.

Good luck.

Dad, can you help me?

You are getting
way too big for this.

Here we go, on three.

Three!

I'm seriously too big.

Hey, Kevin, listen.

I've been... thinking
through a few things,

and I want to run
something by you.

Okay.

Okay.

If I would've had time, I would
have staged the whole store.

You know, put real product
on the shelf,

made it look like a...
actual, functioning store.

Do you have that pine spray
stuff that I gave you?

Yeah!

Hi!

Hi.

Don't mind us, just stopping in.

Hi everyone, this is...

Nancy Reddinger.

It's so good to meet you.

Hi!

Hi. Nice to meet you.

You're just a bit early.

Yes, and I'm sorry about that,

but I wanted to make this
decision before first quarter.

I mean, new year, new decision.

You know how it is.

Know how it is.

Solid. I like it.

Sturdy frame,
centre of town location.

Fresh pine smell.

We should...

Yeah.

Should get out of your way.

I'll just be a few minutes.

I usually get a sense of these
things right away.

Okay.

Looks like she's still deciding.

Anyone read lips?

I mean, she has to see
the potential, right?

This place is all potential.

Hey!

I'm kidding.

We did great.

This is so exciting.

I mean, nobody can replace
Daisy, but...

Yeah, it sure would be fun
to run into each other

at the store again.

Yes.

Anything would be better than it
being turned into a parking lot,

or something big and bulky
that changes the town forever.

I mean, it's like
what the letter said.

"What Christmas used to be."

Yeah.

What... what letter?

Well, Lisa found...

was moving the mailbox,
and she found...

Yeah, yeah, and I was gonna
mention this to you, but...

I found your letter.

My letter?

Well, I just assumed that it was
from when you were a kid.

Here comes Ezra.

Unfortunately, she's not going
to put in an offer.

Did she say why?

She said she loved the store.

It just wasn't right for her.

Well, you have another buyer,
right?

I'm afraid the other one
dropped out.

It's just too close
to Christmas.

Oh, Joe.

I was waiting for the right
time to ask you about...

No, I understand.

This...

thank you for this.

You're welcome.

I...

Excuse me.

You know, maybe it was
too big of a job

for the time that we had
here, but...

You know, Kevin and I just
really wanted it to work.

And now...

And now you'll think of something,
because you always do.

So, cut to the chase
and tell me about this guy

you clearly have a crush on.

Oliver, I don't think I have
a cr...

I do not have a crush, okay?

I mean... Maybe it's...
No, I do. I do.

And I shouldn't.

I mean, I don't live here,
and he doesn't live here.

I don't even know
if he likes me!

Well, have you asked him
to do something?

Maybe it's just the season.
I'm all caught up in the...

The Christmas of everything.

Lisa, just ask him to do
something with you.

Something not work related.

If he says yes,
then he likes you.

If he says no, he probably
still likes you.

Thank you for that very
confusing advice, Oliver.

I just wish I knew what to do
with this store.

Lisa, I should get this.
This is Polly.

Tell her I said hey...

Wait a minute!

Oliver!

Oliver, you're brilliant!

I appreciate how hard everyone
tried to help, but it's just...

it looks like we just don't have
the resources to...

I think I got us one more chance
at a buyer!

What? How? Who?

Yeah, okay, well... well,
first of all, slow down.

Okay, so, my partner and I
have this client named Polly.

And Polly is looking to expand,
so we've convinced her

to come to Evergreen
during the Christmas festival

to look at the store.

That's amazing, that's great!

Before we get ahead
of ourselves, I mean...

there is still a lot of work
to do to impress this woman.

I just wish we... I just...

There's the snow globe.

Please work.

What did you wish for?

Hold on, I thought we weren't
supposed to tell our wishes.

That's what people always say.

Usually, just before they
tell us what they wished for.

So!

Spill it!

I wished for a new idea.

And by the way, why don't people
ever tell their wishes?

I think that's kind of silly.

If it's an important Christmas
wish to you,

I think you should
just share it with people.

That is why we write to Santa.

Yeah, it's...

wait a minute, what?

Say that again?

We tell Santa what we want.

That's why we write him letters.

That's why we write...

Letters!

Kevin's letter!

That's it!

The, the, the letter
is the... is the key!

We use this letter to sell
the store!

That snow globe works fast.

So, like the candlelight
processional?

Yes, yes, yes, all of it, the...
the candlelight processional,

the carols, the, the bells,
all of it.

Everything that is in
this letter, we use it.

Christmas like it used to be.

That's not going to be very easy
to pull off.

I mean, Daisy kept some
of the things,

but nobody did this like Ruth.

I know... I know that.

But I still think we have
to try.

And we can show Polly what
Evergreen is really made of.

Please tell me you're with me.

Yes! Yes!!!

Hey.

Hey.

Peppermint hot cocoa?

You remembered!

Thank you, that's very sweet
of you.

I'm a very sweet guy.

Okay, listen, I just
want to go ahead and...

Listen, listen.

About yesterday, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I left really
abruptly.

No! It's not your fault...
I...

I heard about your plan.

Use the old traditions
to sell the store?

Yeah?

I wanna help.

You do?

Yeah.

That's how Christmas is supposed
to be in Evergreen.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Cheers.

There they are!

Hannah, she's got a great idea
about the letters

to Santa mailbox.

Go.

So, we'll continue
the tradition,

and we'll set it up right here,
on Main Street.

That's brilliant!

And then, once the store's
up and running,

we'll put it back in the store.

Love it. I love it,
that's a great idea.

And what about the choir
and the carolling?

Yeah.

Don't worry about that.
That's my baby.

We're gonna go set this up.

Bye girls.

All right.

All right, I guess we should
head on inside.

You know, but first, there's
there's one more thing.

Ooh.

Come with me.

Mysterious.

You're going to like this,
come on.

Yeah, I'll take a look, Kev.

I've worked on these bells
for years,

I don't think we have
all the parts.

Yeah, but the letter said it...

What was that?

Nothing.

Just do the best you can, Henry.

And if it doesn't work,
it doesn't work.

Thank you so much for helping
out with this.

Well, there's nowhere else
we'd rather be.

Would you look at this!

Daisy's old mailbox!

Hey, Nick.

You know Thomas, and...

Of course I know David!

He and Hannah came by the
hardware store the other day.

How's the search
for the key going?

Not great.

We've tried just
about everywhere.

Well, keep trying.

Sometimes the best way
to solve a puzzle

is to step back and wait.

And then, a bell goes off
in your head

and everything makes sense.

Yeah! That makes sense.

Thomas, are you new
to Evergreen?

You know, trying to be.

In fact, we're thinking about
branching out

the logging business,

and setting up a place here
in... in Evergreen.

Really?

He's been talking about it
for the whole day.

Wonderful.

Keep up the good work.

Putting the mailbox here
is a wonderful idea.

I'm sure that Santa
will appreciate it.

Bye, Nick.

Okay, here we go...

Let's see...

"Thank you cards."

Well, everyone deserves a "thank
you card", especially Santa.

Just a little crooked there,
just...

Let me get it.

Perfect.

Okay, pipe's all done,
and now this is finished.

Just gotta let it dry.

No. That...

No, that's okay.

No, I appreciate it.

Thank you, Shawn. Bye.

Everything okay?

It will be as soon as
I find somebody

to give us supplies.

I mean, here's the thing.

You know, I need things
that would go in this store.

Like, like pillows, and pretty
little Santa Claus people,

and stockings...

What are you laughing at?

Oh, you.

You really love this.

Yeah!

Yes, I do really love it.

You know what I love about it?

I love that you can
take something

that no one sees
the potential in,

and you can turn it
into something beautiful,

like we're doing to this store.

That's amazing.

I always see my job
through this lens of,

you know, what's not done yet.

I always feel like I'm behind,

just gettin' it done.

You enjoy the process.

Y'know, watching someone
get so excited,

well, I guess I've been ignoring
the fact

that that's the most
interesting part.

The potential.

Yeah.

Hey, I've gotta run over
to the inn

and pick up a few things.

Why don't you take a break
and ride with me,

and we'll get some dinner?

I have a thing I have to do.

I, no... look, I'm late
as it is, but rain check?

Yeah, yeah. You should,
you should go.

Rain check?

Yeah, yeah, fine.

All right.

Bye.

Hello, how are you all doing?

Having fun?

Enjoy!

- Cheers!
- Cheers everyone!

Hey!

Hey!

You're just in time,
dinner's ready!

Oh, great!

Come with me for a sec.

Let's put up some decorations.

Okay...

You're doing this all alone?

Aw, everybody loves decorating
a tree,

I'm sure any one of those guests
in there would love to help you.

Which reminds me, I should check
on the new guest.

He's just arrived from Boston.

He figured I could use a little
R&R while helping out a friend.

Oliver!

What are you doing here?

I mean, hey, what's Christmas
without my bestie?

Megan, this is Oliver.

Yes, we've met, but he didn't
tell me he knew you!

I live for surprises.

I know you do.

Excuse me a second.

Here. Help me decorate.

Yeah, sure.

There you go.

Well, you got here fast!

Well there's a shockingly
adorable little train

that leads right into Evergreen.

Yeah, I know the one.

Plus, you said you needed
help, so...

Oliver, I do.

The shelves are completely bare,

I mean, the decorations
look amazing.

You know me, I can stage a store
with no merchandise at all,

but this is Polly we're talking
about here.

You know, she's gonna expect,
like...

This is gorgeous.

They are, aren't they?

Yeah.

She's going to expect stuff
like that, like handmade.

And...

You know what you are?

What?

You're brilliant...

I have an idea.

Okay.

Here, come with me.

All right!

Let me grab my coat!

So, your idea was
choir practice?

Well, not exactly, but wow.

Great job, guys.
Great job.

Let's take five, okay?

So good, so good!

Hi.

Hi.

Choir practice.

Yeah, I sang in high school.

So, choir practice is the thing
that you had to go do?

I wanted to have dinner
with you.

I promised.

You are full of surprises,
Mr. Miller.

I, I know. It's...
it's ridiculous.

No, it's handsome.

It's... cute, no.

Hey.

Hi.

Hi; I'm Oliver. I work
with Lisa in Boston.

Right.

And all over.

Yes, you do.

And this is...

Kevin.

I work with Lisa, here.

Hey, guys, come here.

So, I had an idea.

Do you remember the other day

when you brought me downstairs
to the basement

and there were those boxes
with the arts and crafts

for the Christmas festival?

Yeah, now that we moved
everything to town square,

we're barely finding space
for all the booths.

Okay...

What if we put it all
in Daisy's store?

Give the appearance
of an actual store,

with customers.

Yeah, we feature local artisans.

It's great.

Love it!

We have quilters, we have
ornament makers,

we even have a maple syrup
sugar shack in town.

Well, someone show me
these boxes.

You got it.

Come on!

Awesome, great idea.

- Bye.
- Bye.

So I guess we should just...

Nah, I should head back
to the store.

Oh yeah.

Then I'll...

Yeah, I'll see you later.

Okay.

How's that key search going?

We've tried everywhere.

He's right, I'm starting
to think that key

doesn't go to anything
in Evergreen.

Don't lose heart.

I'm sure you're closer
than you think.

So, what changed?

Well, it's not just this town.

It's the people.

It sounds crazy, but it feels
like magic to me.

It feels like home.

And then there's...

Kevin.

Am I that obvious?

Just a little.

I mean, he's smart,
and he's driven,

and he's super talented.

And he makes me laugh.

On more than one occasion.

You do love that.

Yeah, I do love that.

You know, I mean, it'd be
different if I was going to be

in one place for more than
a while, but...

You're still holding on to that
"grab a bag and go" thing, huh?

I'm just not sure I'm ready
to stop travelling.

Well, no, I mean,
we have some time.

We have a good amount
of savings,

but Boston is definitely more
expensive than other places.

Yeah, Boston is more expensive,
but I mean...

- Hey!
- Hey!

I was just coming over to see...

I finished working on the floor,
it needs to dry overnight.

So until then,
there's nothing more to do.

Oh, well...

I thought we were gonna
do that later.

And Oliver and I could've
helped you.

Nah, you do your thing.

How's Oliver settling in?

It's taking him a minute
to get used to a small town,

but yeah, he's okay.

No, he's good, he's good.

Extra pair of hands never hurts.

Yeah.

Hey!

Do they call it the Kris Kringle
Kitchen all year round,

or do they change that
during the summer?

Well, they put little shorts on
the Santa Claus sign in the summer.

It's a bit of
a wedding destination.

Tourist towns know
what they're doing.

Yeah.

Kevin said that since we
don't have access to the store,

that we should go to
the ice skating pond.

I don't remember saying
anything like that.

There's an ice skating pond?

I knew you would love that.

Where is it?

It's just over the bridge.

What are we doing
just standing here?

Do they rent skates?

Yeah.

Let's go.

Meet you there.

Okay.

See you there.

See you guys.

Why don't you come along?

Walk with me.

Sure.

Looking good, David.

I'm really glad you
and my brother

seem to be getting closer.

Yeah... you sure?

I mean, it's not like weird
or anything for you?

Why would it be weird?

I've never seen you this happy.

Either of you, in fact.

Hey guys.

Hey Michelle.

Come skate with us!

Yeah.

Go ahead.

We got the cocoa covered.

But don't... Don't expect
any fancy moves outta me.

I'm gonna do my best.

Come on, we got you.

I'm not really good at this!

We got you.

Thank you.

This is where I learned
to skate when I was a kid.

Really?

Yeah.

It's a pretty special place.

Yeah.

Here's a good view.

It's gorgeous.

What?

It's just... the way you look
at this town.

You see the best of it.

It's nice.

Well, Hannah told me that people
have been skating on this pond

for over a hundred years, so...

what's not to love about that,
right?

Come on down!

The ice is warm!

Yeah, bronze medal.

It seems like you two...

have got it all figured out,
huh?

Well, I mean, we do share
a brain.

It's kind of like,

when you spend that much time
with someone, I guess,

you just start to form
a pretty solid team.

Yeah, it must be nice.

Every job I take, I get
this whole new crew of guys.

Takes work to catch up.

Yeah, and you have to find
a new place to get supplies.

Plus, living out of a suitcase.

Laundromats.

Yes.

Staying single the whole time.

You know, Oliver and I are
always complaining

about being single.

Wait, what?

What?

You, you and Oliver aren't...
a, a thing?

No!

No.

I guess I just thought...

No, we're not "a thing."

No.

Look, we are...
we are best friends.

But that's...
that's where it ends.

Okay, well I... I guess

instead of jumping
to conclusions, I...

Should've gotten
the whole story?

Yeah. It's embarrassing.

It is. It is embarrassing...
for one of us.

And that is why I'm going
to save you right now

and ask you to skate.

I would love to.

Amazing!

This is for David.

Hey Henry, how's the church
bells coming?

Please tell me that you can time
it so they'll just go off

perfectly when Polly comes
in the store.

Look, I'm sorry, I couldn't
get it working.

I did all I could,
but the system is...

You want me to take a look?

Maybe another set of eyes
could...

If you can, if you...

No, I, I, I didn't.

It's like, no, it's cool...

I'll take a look at it later.

It's all right.

You've done a beautiful job.

Both of you.

Thank you.

Looks great.

There you go.

Thanks.

You can have that one.

Yeah, so...

Thomas told me he might be
opening a new outpost

for his logging company here.

Yeah?

Yeah.

So I can choose between
staying in Evergreen,

or moving to Maine.

And, which way are you leaning?

Honestly, I'm...
I'm not sure.

If I lived here, and I didn't
have a business

that took me all over the place.

And I don't know where
I'm gonna end up.

We might always end up
in different places.

Yeah.

Excuse me.

So, I'll see you tomorrow?

See you then.

Hey!

Allie!

Town gossip is my truck
played matchmaker again.

Thank you.

Thank you!

Thanks for taking such
good care of him.

And, by the looks of it,
the rest of the town.

It was mostly everybody else.

Well, as long as I've known you,
Kevin Miller,

you've always underestimated
yourself.

You covered it up
with stubbornness.

Trying to make everything
perfect.

All right, all right, all right,
I'm aware.

Aren't you supposed to be
in Florida?

Yes, we spent a few days there,
but it turns out,

we are Evergreen people.

I'm happy for you, Allie.

Ryan seems really great.

And now the town has a doctor
my dad'll actually listen to.

I met someone.

She's great.

She's probably
just passing through.

Curse of the tourist town.

Yep.

Been there.

Yeah, it's like,
why set yourself up

for the heartbreak, right?

I'll tell you why.

'Cause you could end up spending
Christmas with someone.

You know, I may have met Ryan
at Christmas,

but, he only just moved here
in August.

We're only now figuring it out,
a year later.

So you're saying...

What I'm saying, Kevin,
is when the person is right,

everything is worth it.

You make it work.

You look amazing.

Thanks. You do, too.

What are you doing painting
in a tie?

I'm being very careful.

Okay, good.

What's this tree about?

Yeah, I know I said two trees
was overly ambitious, but...

maybe you were right.

What?

I said, maybe you were ri...

I'm agreeing with you.

Is this a sufficient amount
of nodding?

Or do you need more?

No, I am, I am, enjoying this.
Yes.

I'm glad.

It does look good, doesn't it?

Lucky for us, Nick contributed
to the cause.

Oh yeah, right, Polly's gonna be
here soon,

so we should get started.

Yeah, let's do it.

Yeah.

These are pretty.

Hey, you know, we've been
so busy, I realized...

I never thanked you.

Thanked me for what?

This place is pretty good,
putting these things together.

This year feels more magical.

It just feels...

it feels like home.

You did that.

You're welcome.

So, does this mean that
you've given more thought

to Thomas's offer of staying
here instead of going to Maine?

I don't know.

I...

I mean, I love this town.

I just, I'm not sure exactly
what's here for me.

Well, I mean, what if there
was something here for you?

What if...

somebody that you wanted
to spend Christmas with?

Then...

Yeah.

Are, are you...

Are you thinking about it?

Maybe.

I don't know, maybe.

Maybe a little.

Merry Christmas!

Hey.

Merry Christmas.

I came looking for some candles
for the processional.

Yeah, yeah, I, I actually saw
some in there yesterday.

Of course you did, because
Daisy would never let me down.

Where were we?

Maybe we should consider
taking that bell down.

Maybe.

It looks so good in here, guys!

Thank you.

Did Michelle come through here?

Back room.

Ok.

Another tree!

Can I help decorate?

Back room.

Yeah! Yes.

Of course you can, sweetheart.

You did such a good job
on the one out front.

It was great.

Yes, you may.

Hey. You okay?

You need some help?

No, I just need to look
for this...

where are they?

Yes!

I found them, they're here!

Way to go, Daisy.

Still coming through in a pinch.

You really do think
of everything.

More like overthink.

You know, I'm a little scared
that maybe,

once you get to know me more,
that...

Hey, listen.

None of what you feel
worries me, Michelle.

You think I don't spend a lot
of time worrying,

and thinking about
the complications?

And I'd like to still keep
getting to know you, Michelle.

Either way.

I like you.

I like this.

David, I have something for you.

Nick wanted me to give this
to you.

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Does it have a remote?

Oh, no, I don't think it has
a remote.

It's pretty old.

I think they worked a little bit
differently back then.

Polly!

Oh, Lisa!

This store's absolutely
gorgeous!

I love it!

Look at these gorgeous pillows,
they must've been hand-done.

What a cute touch, I lo...

And look! That's beautiful.

Those nutcrackers are all
lined up, ready to go.

Oh my goodness, and you got
the maple syrup,

which I love.

Everything is, it's just...

It's incredible.

It's exquisite, it really is.

I love it.

The way you mixed the antique items
with the new items, it's very smart.

Bye.

Bye!

See you later.

See ya.

Wait. You're going too?

Yeah, yeah, listen.
Do your thing.

Work your magic.

But, we'll talk later?

Hand-crafted paper,
would you look at that?

You two have really done
it again.

It's quaint, it's charming.

It's just fascinating
merchandise.

I...

I just love everything.

It's just beautiful;
absolutely stunning.

It's beautiful, the way
you've laid it out.

I can't tell you how much
this means to us, Polly.

And I'm not going
to buy it.

What?

I came here with offers
for the both of you.

And I wanted to do it in person.

I'm so sorry to have wasted
your time.

You have a beautiful store,

and I know you'll have
no problem in selling it.

I'll...

give you a minute.

Thank you.

I came to offer you jobs.

What?

Come work for me,
help me expand.

And over time, you'll become
co-owners,

and eventually have
your own store.

Yeah.

Merry Christmas,
who wants a cookie?

Ezra, it'll happen next time.
It's a great store.

Appreciate that, thanks.

That was lovely. Think about
that offer, you two.

Merry Christmas.

It would mean our own store,
Lisa!

How many times have we said
we wanted that?

I know, I know!

It's like a dream
being handed to us.

And right there in Boston!

We would be idiots not to take it.

We would.

Kevin!

Hey.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, guys.

Hey Thomas.

I made my decision.

Oliver will be managing
one of Polly's stores in Boston.

Expanding quickly.

Yes, we are.

Which is why we would like
to buy Daisy's.

And run it just like Daisy did.

What?

Yes. I, I accept!

Yes, that's amazing!

Are you staying in town?

Yes, I will be.

It's a deal.

Thank you.

Thank you!

Right on!

Okay.
Go find Kevin, tell him!

Yes!

He didn't tell you?

What?

He left.

Told Thomas he wanted the job
in Maine.

When did he do that?

A few minutes ago.

Merry Christmas Eve, Lisa.

Merry Christmas Eve.

Wait.

You're Lisa.

I'm Allie.

Apparently, we went to
kindergarten together.

Yes, you wore overalls, and
you always talked about puppies.

Yes!

And you, very good with glue.

Always had a clean workspace.

Yeah, that was me.

That was definitely me.

By the way, I love your truck.

Everyone loves my truck.

How are you finding Evergreen?

Evergreen is...

I thought I was gonna come here
and feel this rush of nostalgia,

and get it all out of my system

and then just go back
to my own little world.

But instead?

It's just like home
all over again.

You're not the first person
that's happened to.

Believe me.

So.

Mailing a letter to Santa?

No, actually.

This is not my letter.

Kevin's letter has given us
a whole lot to work with

this Christmas.

Yeah.

Yeah, it has.

Kind of been like the guide
to selling this place.

Just hope it works and convinces
a buyer to take this place.

No, Michelle, wait...

Do you not know?

Oliver and I bought Daisy's.

Wait, what?!

You bought this place?

Yes!

No way!

You did?

Oh, my goodness!

I was so hoping you would!

I am so happy about this.

And that means you're gonna stay
in town?

Yeah.

Well, Kevin said you bought
a store in Boston.

No, no. Kevin's got it
all wrong.

Where is he, anyway?

I see his truck out there,
and I just...

No, no, no, it's not his truck.

That's your truck.

Can I just butt in and say,

I don't think this
is Kevin's letter.

Wait, wait a minute,
why would you say...

It's dated, and the initials
are K.M.

Yeah, but all the H-es
are missing.

I think you guys might be
looking at the wrong Miller.

Oliver has my car,
could you give me a ride?

I'll do you one better.

Take my truck.

Thank you.

Bye.

Hey!

Hey.

You guys ready for the festival?

Yeah.

But I still wish we figured out
where the key went.

There you are!

Hey Nick.
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Thanks for the car, Nick.

I really...

That's why I was looking
for you.

On my way here, I reached
into my pocket and found this.

What is it?

I forgot to put it in the box.

This toy has a windup key,

that makes the mechanism
inside it turn.

Wait a minute!

Aunt Hannah!

Are you thinking what
I'm thinking?

Yes, we've been looking in
the wrong place the whole time!

Dad! Can I?

Yeah, yeah, go!

Go!

We'll see you at the festival!

Yeah, we'll see you at
the festival and catch up.

There it is!

My feet are cold.

Come on, Aunt Hannah!

Please.

You were just gonna...

leave and not say goodbye?

I was gonna drop off a note.

Typed?

Actually, yeah.

I had it fixed for my dad.

For Christmas.

So the H and the J keys
are working.

Yeah.

Yeah.

K. Henry Miller.

KHM.

Kevin, why did you let me think
that was your letter?

And not your dad's?

When I saw that letter,

I knew exactly the year
that he wrote it.

I didn't know what to ask for
in a letter to Santa back then.

Everything without my mom
just felt different.

But I didn't want
to disappoint him, so I went...

with an empty envelope.

And then, out of the corner
of my eye,

I saw my dad put a letter
in the mailbox.

And I never knew what it said...
until now.

I remember you.

We were... We were both there
at the same time?

Wait a minute, wait,
I'm confused.

So, you did, you did all this,
with the store and the festival,

because of the letter?

It was you.

You swept in here, and...

For the first time in a while,

I got back a piece of what
Christmas used to be.

And then when I read the letter

and I realized it was
from my dad,

it was more of a reason.

This was all your doing, son?

Dad.

I wrote that letter
25 years ago.

When the townspeople...

they brought your mother back.

Preparing the candlelight
procession and the choir.

I just wanted you to have what
you asked for in the letter.

You did.

You did.

You did, son.

You did.

You both did.

Thank you.

You're so welcome.

There it is!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, Allie.

Merry Christmas.

Are those church bells?

Is that, is that the bells?

Yeah!

Come on!

Come on, dad!

C'mon!

Merry Christmas, Ruthie.

You too, Daisy.

- We did it!
- It's snowing!

It's beautiful.

Yeah.

Merry Christmas, David.

This place...

it's magical.

You should see it
the other seasons.

Well, it looks like
I'm going to.

I'll be opening up a new
location down here

over the summer.

I didn't take the job in Boston.

You...

We bought Daisy's.

I'm staying here.

I guess I should've gotten
the whole story...

So, it looks like you'll be
joining me at the new location.

Yeah.

Can we shake on it later?

Lisa.

The key!

It was for the bells!

How did you figure that out?

I realized that if I added up
everything Nick said,

it pointed to the church.

Merry Christmas, Kevin.

Merry Christmas, Lisa.

And so, the town once
again celebrated

Christmas like they used to.

All the while remembering

that keeping family and friends

close for Christmas

is the greatest Evergreen
tradition of them all.
