You ridiculous creature!

The universe is
trying to tell you
10
00:01:50,819 --> 00:01:52,487
that thing is embarrassing.

but something came up.
41
00:03:13,652 --> 00:03:16,655
- What's his name?
- It was work.
42
00:03:16,738 --> 00:03:18,883
And I'm sure she'll take you
to New York some other time.
43
00:03:18,907 --> 00:03:20,283
Yeah, but not at Christmas time.

Pete have going for the Christmas concert,

it's going to be awesome.

How could she do this to me?

leave in the first place?

Hi. Merry Christmas.
57
00:04:02,659 --> 00:04:04,035
- Hi.
- [Lisa] Have a good afternoon.
58
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,580
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- It's all right.
59
00:04:06,663 --> 00:04:09,166
Sorry, I didn't mean to do that.
I'm in a bit of a rush.
60
00:04:09,249 --> 00:04:11,042
- It is the season.
- Yeah.

[chuckling]

00:04:12,502 --> 00:04:13,879
Um, so I bought
this reindeer here
63
00:04:13,962 --> 00:04:15,213
and I need to exchange it.
64
00:04:15,338 --> 00:04:17,174
Oh, did you want something else?
65
00:04:17,257 --> 00:04:19,857
I want another reindeer, but one
that lights up. This one doesn't.
66
00:04:19,926 --> 00:04:22,137
And I couldn't fit it
back in the box, so, yeah.
67
00:04:22,220 --> 00:04:24,097
Oh, I am sorry. Um...
68
00:04:24,181 --> 00:04:26,892
Except, I just sold my last two.
69
00:04:26,975 --> 00:04:29,019
- You're kidding me?
- Sorry.
70
00:04:29,102 --> 00:04:31,438
Figures. I mean, it's fine.
71
00:04:31,521 --> 00:04:33,231
- It's fine.
- You say it won't light?
72
00:04:33,356 --> 00:04:34,941
- Yeah.
- Did you check the fuse?
73
00:04:35,025 --> 00:04:36,485
- It's in the... The hoof.
- The hoof?
74
00:04:36,568 --> 00:04:39,070
Yeah, I checked the fuses,
both fuses in both hooves.
75
00:04:39,154 --> 00:04:41,948
Well, maybe Walter's
got some over at the nursery.
76
00:04:42,032 --> 00:04:43,450
He's not
carrying them this year.
77
00:04:43,533 --> 00:04:45,869
Oh, um well,
thanks for the thought.
78
00:04:47,162 --> 00:04:52,709
- Wait, wait! How committed to reindeer are you?
- On a scale of one to ten?
79
00:04:52,793 --> 00:04:55,212
Yeah, like a one being,
like, it's a passing thought,
80
00:04:55,295 --> 00:04:57,506
and a ten is like, you know,
81
00:04:57,589 --> 00:05:00,842
the true Christmas spirit
is reindeer on my lawn.

are to my family
having a perfect Christmas.

00:05:08,433 --> 00:05:10,268
Well, how about on a scale of,
86
00:05:10,393 --> 00:05:12,437
I'll pay you more
than you paid her?
87
00:05:12,521 --> 00:05:15,106
You're going to scalp
my reindeer in front of me?
88
00:05:15,190 --> 00:05:17,025
Maybe we should
take this outside.

00:05:30,914 --> 00:05:35,669
Um, this is the first Christmas in
Brookfield for my daughter and me.
97
00:05:35,752 --> 00:05:39,548
And it's actually our
first Christmas with a lawn.
98
00:05:39,631 --> 00:05:45,303
And, you know, my daughter
is just so excited
99
00:05:45,428 --> 00:05:48,515
about having, you know,
a full display...
100
00:05:48,598 --> 00:05:50,600
- Jennifer.
- out front.
101
00:05:50,684 --> 00:05:54,145
We've had kind of a crushing year and
the only thing that's been giving me hope
102
00:05:54,229 --> 00:05:56,523
is the fact that my daughter
really wants to decorate.
103
00:05:56,606 --> 00:05:58,817
She's the reason I'm
out here trying to buy
104
00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:01,319
all of the reindeer
even though Lisa only had two.
105
00:06:01,444 --> 00:06:06,324
So, I'm really sorry, um, this
is our first one on our own.
106
00:06:06,449 --> 00:06:10,245
Yeah, she'll be so disappointed.
I'm sorry. You know what?
107
00:06:10,328 --> 00:06:13,206
I'm really sorry, I completely
overstepped, I apologize.
108
00:06:13,290 --> 00:06:16,167
No, you were trying to do right
by your daughter and I respect that.
109
00:06:16,251 --> 00:06:18,044
Yeah, and I respect
what you're doing.
110
00:06:20,171 --> 00:06:21,756
Yeah, Merry Christmas.
111
00:06:23,633 --> 00:06:25,176
Um, should I just
leave this guy here?
112
00:06:25,260 --> 00:06:27,071
Oh yeah, just leave it there
I'll take care of it.
113
00:06:27,095 --> 00:06:29,055
- I'll just get your credit card.
- Um, okay.
114
00:06:30,181 --> 00:06:32,434
- What do you say to one?
- What?
115
00:06:32,517 --> 00:06:34,269
- No mark up.
- Um.
116
00:06:35,353 --> 00:06:37,022
I can't do that, I can't.
I mean,
117
00:06:37,105 --> 00:06:39,608
your daughter is already
settling for less than she wanted.
118
00:06:39,691 --> 00:06:42,128
Yeah, but you're not going to have
anything on your brand new lawn.
119
00:06:42,152 --> 00:06:44,154
Well, I'll figure something out.
120
00:06:45,071 --> 00:06:47,391
You sure you checked the fuse?
I'd be happy to take a look.
121

He's very handy.
122
00:06:51,995 --> 00:06:54,748
Um, no, that's okay.
Merry Christmas.
123
00:06:54,831 --> 00:06:56,082
One's better than nothing.
124
00:06:56,166 --> 00:06:58,501
- Oh yeah, but the guilt. So...
- [laughs]
125
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:00,378
- Yeah, thank you. [laughs]
- Okay.

an amazing songwriter

Like you should be.

I don't think I've met her yet.

No, they just collab.

[Nate] Hey.

00:36:16,758 --> 00:36:17,758
Hi.
706
00:36:18,551 --> 00:36:20,679
Thanks for letting me
drag you out here.
707
00:36:20,762 --> 00:36:23,139

Thank you.
710
00:36:26,226 --> 00:36:29,312
I just needed some
advice and I thought
711
00:36:29,396 --> 00:36:33,149
lurking outside the clinic all day waiting
until you're done might be a little desperate.
712
00:36:33,274 --> 00:36:35,026
Yeah, it probably would've,
713
00:36:35,110 --> 00:36:38,363
but I'm happy
to make house calls.
714
00:36:38,446 --> 00:36:41,157
You have a nice house,
from what I can see.
715
00:36:41,241 --> 00:36:43,243
Yeah, I would invite you inside,
716
00:36:43,326 --> 00:36:46,162
but that's a little tricky.
717
00:36:47,497 --> 00:36:48,998
Oh, okay.
718
00:36:49,082 --> 00:36:53,086
Um, okay, then
we can talk outside.
719
00:36:53,169 --> 00:36:53,962
Yeah, Okay.

know each other, I've kind of
723
00:37:01,845 --> 00:37:03,645
made a point of not
talking about my daughter.
724
00:37:03,722 --> 00:37:06,349
But I kind of got
to talk about my daughter.
725
00:37:06,433 --> 00:37:07,600
Okay.
726
00:37:07,684 --> 00:37:09,203
You were the first
person I thought of.
727
00:37:09,227 --> 00:37:11,938
Oh, because I have access
to horse tranquilizers?
728
00:37:12,021 --> 00:37:14,417
I'm not sure they're going to be
strong enough to calm her down.
729
00:37:14,441 --> 00:37:15,775
I mean for you.
730
00:37:16,443 --> 00:37:17,443
Am I that bad?
731
00:37:18,820 --> 00:37:20,029
You'll be okay.
732
00:37:20,113 --> 00:37:21,740

00:37:24,784 --> 00:37:27,829
Okay, so when her mother left,
735
00:37:28,663 --> 00:37:32,333
um, she didn't just leave.
736
00:37:32,417 --> 00:37:34,127
- She had an affair...
- Aw.
737
00:37:34,210 --> 00:37:37,297
- and then she left.
- I'm so sorry.
738
00:37:37,380 --> 00:37:38,380
Yeah.
739
00:37:40,216 --> 00:37:42,802
So that's been
a thing, obviously,
740
00:37:42,886 --> 00:37:46,097
and it's going to take her
some time to work through that
741
00:37:46,181 --> 00:37:48,224
and I understand that,
I totally get it.
742
00:37:48,308 --> 00:37:51,186
But in the meantime, there's
literally nothing I can say
743
00:37:51,269 --> 00:37:54,564
that's not some sort of
catastrophic insult or injury.

You know, I thought 16 year old
girls were tricky when I was 16!

a 16 year old girl once

understand my daughter.

I just try to remember what
it was like when I was her age.

I remember what I was
like when I was her age

00:38:17,086 --> 00:38:19,088
- every time a boy comes to the door.
- Mmm.

Don't care, I'm not going.
876
00:43:59,178 --> 00:44:01,347
Come on, what hurts?
877
00:44:01,430 --> 00:44:05,101
Is this a I'm not ready
for my history test bug?
878
00:44:05,184 --> 00:44:09,147
Or I still have 100 pages left
of Tale of Two Cities flu?
879
00:44:09,230 --> 00:44:10,940
Or I'm dodging
the paparazzi before
880
00:44:11,023 --> 00:44:14,402
my amazing
Christmas solo stomach ache?
881
00:44:16,445 --> 00:44:18,573
Honey, come on,
tell me what's wrong.
882
00:44:21,576 --> 00:44:23,244
Probably just
an adrenaline crash
883
00:44:23,327 --> 00:44:24,996
from the auditions
and everything.
884
00:44:25,079 --> 00:44:26,455
It's stupid.
885
00:44:26,539 --> 00:44:28,249
It is not stupid, it's exciting.
886
00:44:31,502 --> 00:44:32,502
Come on.
887
00:44:34,380 --> 00:44:37,550
And for the record,
I finished Tale of Two Cities.
888
00:44:37,633 --> 00:44:38,718
Congratulations!
889
00:44:38,801 --> 00:44:40,136
Two days early.
890
00:44:40,219 --> 00:44:43,139
Fantastic! In that case,
it is a far, far better shower
891
00:44:43,222 --> 00:44:45,474
you take now than
you have ever taken before.
892
00:44:51,772 --> 00:44:55,234
Oh, by the way, tell Charlotte
I say congrats on the solo.
893
00:44:55,318 --> 00:44:58,881
- How'd you know? I hadn't even told you about the audition.
- Oh I know, thanks a lot, boss.
894
00:44:58,905 --> 00:45:00,239
Well, I didn't want to brag.
895
00:45:00,323 --> 00:45:01,949
Are you kidding?
You're required to brag.
896
00:45:02,033 --> 00:45:03,427
You could put signs
on your front lawn
897
00:45:03,451 --> 00:45:05,786
and people would stop and cheer.
This is a big deal.
898
00:45:05,870 --> 00:45:08,056
Well, I figured it was important
with all the auditions.
899
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,625
Yeah, and I bet you there's a
lot of buzz at school about it,
900
00:45:10,708 --> 00:45:13,002
in fact, there's probably
some noses out of joint.
901
00:45:13,085 --> 00:45:14,503
I remember my sophomore year,
902
00:45:14,587 --> 00:45:16,839
Didi Bartholemew
barely got offstage
903
00:45:16,923 --> 00:45:19,425
before she threw up all
over the place from nerves.
904
00:45:19,508 --> 00:45:22,446
Probably ate shepherd's pie, I could
tell, but I was really close to the front.
905
00:45:22,470 --> 00:45:24,805
But it doesn't really matter
because what people remember
906
00:45:24,889 --> 00:45:28,017
is she had
a beautiful songbird voice.
907
00:45:28,100 --> 00:45:30,394
Although there are some people
that do remember the barf.
908
00:45:30,478 --> 00:45:32,897
I don't think Charlotte
will be that nervous.
909
00:45:32,980 --> 00:45:35,608
Well, I hope Charlotte
won't be that nervous.
910
00:45:35,691 --> 00:45:38,319
She probably
won't be that nervous, but...
911
00:45:38,402 --> 00:45:40,196
So, if Nate didn't
explain that to you,
912
00:45:40,279 --> 00:45:43,491
then what did you talk about?
913
00:45:43,574 --> 00:45:44,700
[chuckles]
914
00:45:45,451 --> 00:45:49,664
Oooh, Santa's bringing someone
a boyfriend for Christmas!
915
00:45:49,747 --> 00:45:53,709
[light orchestral music]
916
00:45:53,793 --> 00:45:56,045
- I want all the details!
- Nope, you get nothing!
917
00:45:56,128 --> 00:45:57,128
Come on!
918
00:46:05,221 --> 00:46:06,221
What?
919
00:46:06,889 --> 00:46:08,724
So, how long
have you known Henry?
920
00:46:08,808 --> 00:46:10,559
Since pre-school.
921
00:46:10,643 --> 00:46:12,395
You guys seem so great together.
922
00:46:12,478 --> 00:46:16,107
We are now. Fifth grade got a
little ugly, but we worked it out.
923
00:46:16,190 --> 00:46:17,190
[laughing]
924
00:46:17,233 --> 00:46:18,276
Have you ever...
925
00:46:18,359 --> 00:46:20,361
Don't even.
926
00:46:20,444 --> 00:46:21,737
- Don't.
- [laughing]
927
00:46:21,862 --> 00:46:23,281
What are you guys talking about?
928
00:46:23,364 --> 00:46:26,367
- Our favorite Christmas cookies.
- Right!
929
00:46:26,450 --> 00:46:27,952
Chocolate chip snowballs.
930
00:46:28,619 --> 00:46:30,997
Ah, any luck finding
your mom something?
931
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:32,498
I found her
the perfect slippers.
932
00:46:32,581 --> 00:46:34,500
- The ones she has are so old.
- [Henry laughs]
933
00:46:34,583 --> 00:46:37,545
- Did you find what you were looking for?
- Yeah, actually.
934
00:46:38,838 --> 00:46:39,839
[gasping]
935
00:46:43,134 --> 00:46:45,761
Oh my gosh, I am so sorry!
936
00:46:45,845 --> 00:46:49,473
Are you actually insane, MJ?
937
00:46:49,557 --> 00:46:51,142
I just don't know what happened.
938
00:46:51,225 --> 00:46:53,060
We just came
to say hi to you guys
939
00:46:53,144 --> 00:46:55,229
and I guess I must have tripped.
940
00:46:56,355 --> 00:46:58,315
We'll go back to the store
and we'll talk to them.
941
00:46:58,899 --> 00:47:00,067
I'm not usually a klutz.
942
00:47:00,151 --> 00:47:02,194
But you're always a liar!
943
00:47:02,278 --> 00:47:03,487
Excuse you?
944
00:47:04,155 --> 00:47:06,073
I'm sorry, Charlotte.
945
00:47:06,157 --> 00:47:07,491
Accidents happen, Eva.
946
00:47:07,575 --> 00:47:09,160
You ruined
my mother's Christmas present
947
00:47:09,243 --> 00:47:10,494
and you think it's funny?
948
00:47:11,454 --> 00:47:13,331
I'm hurt you'd
say that, Charlotte.
949
00:47:15,458 --> 00:47:17,084
I'm trying to help you.
950
00:47:19,045 --> 00:47:21,047
Better dry off, Charlotte.
951
00:47:21,130 --> 00:47:22,715
Don't want to catch a cold.
952
00:47:23,632 --> 00:47:26,886
True, you need to stay
healthy for the Festival.
953
00:47:26,969 --> 00:47:28,220
I'll be fine.
954
00:47:28,304 --> 00:47:29,304
Sure hope so.
955
00:47:32,391 --> 00:47:34,268
Let's take
you back to the store,
956
00:47:34,352 --> 00:47:35,936
and then we'll
get you home, come on.
957
00:47:39,690 --> 00:47:42,568
[dramatic music]
958
00:47:42,651 --> 00:47:44,320
- [Nate] Close your eyes.
- [Jennifer] Okay.
959
00:47:44,403 --> 00:47:45,905
[chuckles] Keep them closed.
960
00:47:45,988 --> 00:47:48,240
Keep them closed. One second.
961
00:47:48,324 --> 00:47:50,659
[door closing]
962
00:47:50,743 --> 00:47:51,911
[chuckling]
963
00:47:51,994 --> 00:47:53,662
Keep them closed.
964
00:47:54,997 --> 00:47:57,458
And voila!
965
00:47:57,541 --> 00:47:59,794
[light orchestral music]
966
00:47:59,877 --> 00:48:00,878
Huh?
967
00:48:03,381 --> 00:48:04,590
Santa's throne!
968
00:48:05,925 --> 00:48:07,819
I mean, it's not finished,
so there's going to be a window
969
00:48:07,843 --> 00:48:11,806
behind it and all of the toys are
gonna be surrounding it. It's you know...
970
00:48:11,889 --> 00:48:13,224
- It's amazing.
- Yeah?
971
00:48:13,307 --> 00:48:15,559
Uh-huh. Everyone's
going to love it.
972
00:48:16,519 --> 00:48:18,646
- I hope you do.
- I do.
973
00:48:18,729 --> 00:48:21,816
And I'm kind of fond of
the guy who built it, too.
974
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:25,778
[Pete screaming]
975
00:48:25,861 --> 00:48:27,780
- Seriously?
- Seriously!
976
00:48:27,863 --> 00:48:29,407
[gasping]
977
00:48:29,490 --> 00:48:30,783
Hey, what'd you do?
978
00:48:30,866 --> 00:48:33,494
- Oh man, oh man, oh man.
- What'd you do, how bad is it?
979
00:48:33,577 --> 00:48:36,038
No, don't show me, just tell me.
980
00:48:36,122 --> 00:48:38,934
- I don't know, I didn't look.
- Okay, come on let's get you to the hospital.
981
00:48:38,958 --> 00:48:40,376
Okay, no. May 1?
982
00:48:44,505 --> 00:48:45,881
-Can...?
983
00:48:49,927 --> 00:48:51,387
-[screaming] -Oh!
984
00:48:51,470 --> 00:48:52,888
I'm just checking your reflexes.
985
00:48:53,013 --> 00:48:54,348
- [gasps]
- They're working.
986
00:48:55,391 --> 00:48:57,309
You know, I can handle this.
987
00:48:58,185 --> 00:49:00,855
Look, I don't want,
you know, to seem difficult,
988
00:49:00,938 --> 00:49:03,691
on top of being bloody,
but aren't you a veterinarian?
989
00:49:03,774 --> 00:49:04,900
- Pete!
- What?
990
00:49:04,984 --> 00:49:07,069
[chuckling]
It's okay. Yes, I am.
991
00:49:07,153 --> 00:49:10,114
But you know, we're not that
different. And it's just your paw.
992
00:49:10,197 --> 00:49:12,074
You missed your front
pastern, which is good.
993
00:49:12,158 --> 00:49:14,285
You know, you could have
nicked a ligament.
994
00:49:14,368 --> 00:49:16,704
And well, you know
what we'd have to do to you.
995
00:49:18,414 --> 00:49:19,832
- Put him down.
- [Jennifer] Mmm.
996
00:49:19,915 --> 00:49:21,333
Should've done that years ago.
997
00:49:21,417 --> 00:49:23,252
- [chuckling]
- Okay, you know what?
998
00:49:23,335 --> 00:49:25,421
You can take care of me,
just don't let him touch me.
999
00:49:25,504 --> 00:49:26,504
Okay.
1000
00:49:27,298 --> 00:49:28,650
- Does he have a first aid kit?
- Yeah.
1001
00:49:28,674 --> 00:49:29,967
Okay.
1002
00:49:31,051 --> 00:49:32,428
I'm Jennifer, by the way.
1003
00:49:33,137 --> 00:49:35,055
- Pete.
- Hi. [chuckling]
1004
00:49:35,139 --> 00:49:40,144
[light acoustic guitar music]
1005
00:49:40,227 --> 00:49:42,855
Well, that's yet
another member of my family
1006
00:49:42,938 --> 00:49:44,106
that appreciates your help.
1007
00:49:44,190 --> 00:49:45,441
[laughing]
1008
00:49:45,524 --> 00:49:46,650
I was happy to do it.
1009
00:49:47,776 --> 00:49:49,570
Consider it my way
of saying thank you.
1010
00:49:50,946 --> 00:49:53,032
I have really enjoyed
these last few days.
1011
00:49:55,868 --> 00:49:58,412
You know, I knew
it was the right thing
1012
00:49:59,455 --> 00:50:03,918
to move here for me, but I've been
wondering if it was right for Charlotte.
1013
00:50:04,793 --> 00:50:06,003
You know, um.
1014
00:50:06,837 --> 00:50:09,715
But this past week, I mean,
it has been so special.
1015
00:50:09,798 --> 00:50:12,176
There's been all these new
opportunities for both of us.
1016
00:50:13,552 --> 00:50:17,139
I just think that, you know if I
had been holding on to the past,
1017
00:50:17,223 --> 00:50:19,058
I never would've
said yes to pie.
1018
00:50:19,725 --> 00:50:21,393
- [chuckles]
- Oh, good, then
1019
00:50:21,477 --> 00:50:23,270
I don't have to get you
a Christmas present.
1020
00:50:23,354 --> 00:50:24,498
Oh, I'm pretty sure
you still do.
1021
00:50:24,522 --> 00:50:26,190
[chuckling]
1022
00:50:26,273 --> 00:50:28,734
Well, if it's a gift
exchange you're after...
1023
00:50:28,817 --> 00:50:30,861
[laughing]
1024
00:50:30,945 --> 00:50:35,491
[gentle music]
1025
00:50:46,293 --> 00:50:47,293
What?
1026
00:50:50,422 --> 00:50:51,422
No.
1027
00:50:52,049 --> 00:50:53,509
Oh no, no, no.
1028
00:50:54,301 --> 00:50:56,929
[dramatic music]
1029
00:50:57,012 --> 00:50:58,180
[sobbing]
1030
00:50:59,306 --> 00:51:00,933
I didn't even want to come here!
1031
00:51:03,686 --> 00:51:06,105
Why can't everyone
just leave me alone?
1032
00:51:06,939 --> 00:51:08,482
[door slamming]
1033
00:51:20,995 --> 00:51:27,793
[dramatic music]
1034
00:51:33,465 --> 00:51:35,175
Another late night?
1035
00:51:35,259 --> 00:51:36,539
Not the kind you're thinking of.
1036
00:51:38,178 --> 00:51:40,578
Did you know that Jennifer's
place got vandalized last night?
1037
00:51:43,309 --> 00:51:45,060
Why would I know
anything about that?
1038
00:51:45,185 --> 00:51:47,438
I just figured it was
kids from the school.
1039
00:51:47,521 --> 00:51:49,356
They spray painted
her garage and driveway.
1040
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,317
They broke a bunch
of lawn decorations.
1041
00:51:52,067 --> 00:51:54,153
- You don't know anything about this?
- No.
1042
00:51:55,321 --> 00:51:57,239
High school kids don't
keep secrets these days,
1043
00:51:57,323 --> 00:51:59,123
they put everything
out there on the internet.
1044
00:51:59,199 --> 00:52:03,245
Out there on
Snapchat, or whatever.
1045
00:52:03,329 --> 00:52:04,788
Not anyone I know.
1046
00:52:04,872 --> 00:52:06,999
Do you know Charlotte Flynn?
1047
00:52:07,082 --> 00:52:08,792
Is she in any of your classes?
1048
00:52:09,460 --> 00:52:10,461
Who?
1049
00:52:10,544 --> 00:52:13,172
Charlotte Flynn,
Jennifer's daughter.
1050
00:52:13,255 --> 00:52:14,632
I guess, sort of.
1051
00:52:15,341 --> 00:52:16,967
Are you friends with her?
1052
00:52:17,051 --> 00:52:19,303
I don't make friends
as fast as you do, Dad.
1053
00:52:19,386 --> 00:52:21,096
Is anyone you know
friends with her?
1054
00:52:21,180 --> 00:52:22,431
Why does it matter?
1055
00:52:22,514 --> 00:52:24,350
Because if we know
who she's hanging out with,
1056
00:52:24,433 --> 00:52:26,644
maybe we'd have idea
who'd want to trash her house.
1057
00:52:28,145 --> 00:52:31,190
I know she auditioned for
the Christmas Festival solo.
1058
00:52:31,273 --> 00:52:32,273
That's it.
1059
00:52:33,150 --> 00:52:35,527
Really? Jennifer didn't
tell me her daughter sang.
1060
00:52:35,611 --> 00:52:37,738
She probably
didn't want to spoil things
1061
00:52:37,821 --> 00:52:40,407
by telling you her daughter
beat me out for the part.
1062
00:52:43,243 --> 00:52:44,828
Why didn't you tell me?
1063
00:52:44,912 --> 00:52:46,497
You've been busy.
1064
00:52:47,623 --> 00:52:49,958
With Uncle Pete
and Santa's Workshop.
1065
00:52:50,876 --> 00:52:53,462
Yeah well, I should've been
paying more attention. I'm sorry.
1066
00:52:57,007 --> 00:52:58,550
I guess there's
always senior year.
1067
00:52:59,218 --> 00:53:01,387
She'll be
a senior next year, too.
1068
00:53:01,470 --> 00:53:02,971
I'm not going to hold my breath.
1069
00:53:03,847 --> 00:53:05,432
I got to get ready for school.
1070
00:53:06,558 --> 00:53:08,536
Weill, if you hear anything,
please let me know, ok?
1071
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:09,960
Because this was
way beyond a prank.
1072
00:53:10,020 --> 00:53:11,188
Yeah.
1073
00:53:16,527 --> 00:53:18,862
Pancakes should
make you feel better.
1074
00:53:20,614 --> 00:53:22,116
So, whoever did this,
1075
00:53:22,783 --> 00:53:25,327
maybe they pranked you
because you're new?
1076
00:53:25,411 --> 00:53:26,620
Mom, please.
1077
00:53:26,704 --> 00:53:28,080
I know what this is about.
1078
00:53:29,248 --> 00:53:30,833
The Christmas solo.
1079
00:53:30,916 --> 00:53:32,209
What, the song for the Festival?
1080
00:53:33,043 --> 00:53:34,920
The minute
I decided to audition,
1081
00:53:36,171 --> 00:53:40,634
this girl, MJ,
started hassling me.
1082
00:53:40,718 --> 00:53:44,054
I guess she thought she deserved
to sing the solo and...
1083
00:53:44,138 --> 00:53:46,724
Even after Ms. Baxter
gave it to me,
1084
00:53:47,599 --> 00:53:48,767
she's been after me.
1085
00:53:49,685 --> 00:53:51,061
What do you mean, after you?
1086
00:53:51,145 --> 00:53:53,397
She says nasty things
to me every time I see her,
1087
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,192
she's mean to my friends. She threw
a soda on me and almost ruined your...
1088
00:53:59,903 --> 00:54:00,904
She's vicious.
1089
00:54:00,988 --> 00:54:02,906
- Why didn't you tell me?
- Because
1090
00:54:03,615 --> 00:54:05,951
I didn't realize
it was going to get this bad.
1091
00:54:06,034 --> 00:54:08,495
- But, did you tell a teacher or something?
- No.
1092
00:54:08,579 --> 00:54:10,682
- Why not?
- Just because I thought she'd just get bored
1093
00:54:10,706 --> 00:54:12,458
and move on
to torment someone else.
1094
00:54:12,541 --> 00:54:13,959
Honey, you should've told me.
1095
00:54:14,042 --> 00:54:15,478
- What were you going to do?
- Well, ah...
1096
00:54:15,502 --> 00:54:18,338
I could be supportive!
1097
00:54:20,591 --> 00:54:22,885
So what are we going to do now?
1098
00:54:22,968 --> 00:54:25,113
I'm just trying to figure that
out! Just give me a minute!
1099
00:54:25,137 --> 00:54:27,389
You know you can
always talk to me.
1100
00:54:28,348 --> 00:54:29,516
Not really.
1101
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:30,600
Always!
1102
00:54:31,852 --> 00:54:34,813
You've been so happy,
enjoying your time with Nate.
1103
00:54:35,939 --> 00:54:37,816
I didn't want to spoil that.
1104
00:54:37,900 --> 00:54:40,360
Charlotte, you come first.
1105
00:54:41,069 --> 00:54:42,069
Always.
1106
00:54:43,572 --> 00:54:46,742
I thought, just for a minute,
1107
00:54:46,825 --> 00:54:48,869
this Christmas
was going to be great.
1108
00:54:49,870 --> 00:54:51,246
It's still going to be great.
1109
00:54:54,166 --> 00:54:56,144
[sighing] I'm going to talk
to this girl's parents.
1110
00:54:56,168 --> 00:54:59,129
No, don't, please. It'll just
make it a thousand times worse.
1111
00:54:59,213 --> 00:55:01,340
No, I'll be reasonable, okay?
I promise.
1112
00:55:01,423 --> 00:55:04,176
And hopefully her parents will
be, too. But this has to stop.
1113
00:55:04,259 --> 00:55:06,804
- Alright, what was her name again?
- Mom.
1114
00:55:06,887 --> 00:55:08,013
Charlotte!
1115
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:09,973
Everyone calls her MJ.
1116
00:55:11,350 --> 00:55:13,143
It stands for Melissa Jane.
1117
00:55:13,227 --> 00:55:15,687
It should really
stand for Major Jerk.
1118
00:55:15,771 --> 00:55:17,582
Ok, what's her last name?
I'll call the school.
1119
00:55:17,606 --> 00:55:18,982
Prentiss.
1120
00:55:19,066 --> 00:55:20,734
Melissa Jane Prentiss.
1121
00:55:23,487 --> 00:55:24,487
What?
1122
00:55:26,323 --> 00:55:29,761
- Eat your breakfast, I'll drive you to school when I get back.
- Mom, you don't have to do this.
1123
00:55:29,785 --> 00:55:31,370
Yes sweetheart, I do!
1124
00:55:31,453 --> 00:55:33,789
- Well, do you need her address?
- I know it.
1125
00:55:39,169 --> 00:55:41,547
[doorbell ringing]
1126
00:55:48,804 --> 00:55:51,723
Hey, what a great way to start
the day. Come on in.
1127
00:55:56,144 --> 00:55:57,813
How're you doing?
1128
00:55:57,896 --> 00:56:00,691
Not good. Not good at all.
1129
00:56:00,774 --> 00:56:02,818
- Did something else happen?
- Yes.
1130
00:56:02,901 --> 00:56:03,901
Tell me.
1131
00:56:04,736 --> 00:56:06,238
I can't see you anymore.
1132
00:56:07,155 --> 00:56:09,825
- What?
- I thought you deserved to hear it face-to-face.
1133
00:56:10,617 --> 00:56:12,286
I don't understand, what...
1134
00:56:12,369 --> 00:56:13,912
- What happened?
- [Melissa] Dad?
1135
00:56:14,830 --> 00:56:16,915
Yeah, Melissa, just give
us a second, would you?
1136
00:56:16,999 --> 00:56:19,199
No, no it's fine, she should
stay. She should hear this.
1137
00:56:20,210 --> 00:56:23,755
Hi, MJ. I'm Jennifer Flynn,
Charlotte Flynn's mom.
1138
00:56:24,464 --> 00:56:28,260
- Oh.
- What you did to my daughter is inexcusable.
1139
00:56:29,136 --> 00:56:32,431
And if this is your daughter, then
you are not the man I thought you were.
1140
00:56:32,514 --> 00:56:34,182
That's why
I came to say goodbye.
1141
00:56:45,652 --> 00:56:47,070
[sighing]
1142
00:56:49,072 --> 00:56:50,072
Melissa.
1143
00:56:51,283 --> 00:56:52,283
Melissa!
1144
00:56:53,118 --> 00:56:54,369
Tell me what happened.
1145
00:56:54,453 --> 00:56:56,246
There's nothing to tell.
1146
00:56:56,330 --> 00:56:59,091
Come on sweetie, the longer you
stall, the worse this is going to get.
1147
00:57:00,792 --> 00:57:02,753
We pranked
their house, big deal.
1148
00:57:02,836 --> 00:57:04,046
That was you?
1149
00:57:05,088 --> 00:57:06,548
What were you thinking?
1150
00:57:06,632 --> 00:57:08,091
I didn't do any
of the big stuff!
1151
00:57:08,175 --> 00:57:09,551
Some of the guys did that.
1152
00:57:11,053 --> 00:57:12,053
And I never...
1153
00:57:13,180 --> 00:57:17,100
I was mad and I started this stupid meme
as a joke, and it spread all over school
1154
00:57:17,184 --> 00:57:18,464
and people thought it was funny.
1155
00:57:19,353 --> 00:57:22,081
And then people kept adding on to
it, and everyone thought it was funny,
1156
00:57:22,105 --> 00:57:23,982
but I thought
they'd get bored and stop.
1157
00:57:24,983 --> 00:57:27,569
But Kayla told Bobby we
were going to prank Charlotte,
1158
00:57:27,653 --> 00:57:29,738
and he got the lacrosse team
and all of a sudden,
1159
00:57:29,821 --> 00:57:32,407
it was this big whole thing
and I couldn't stop them.
1160
00:57:32,532 --> 00:57:33,784
How hard did you try?
1161
00:57:35,535 --> 00:57:36,828
I just wanted
to get back at her,
1162
00:57:36,912 --> 00:57:37,996
I didn't mean to...
1163
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:39,122
Get back at her for what?
1164
00:57:39,206 --> 00:57:40,749
She ruined Christmas!
1165
00:57:41,833 --> 00:57:42,918
She stole my song.
1166
00:57:43,001 --> 00:57:45,003
Not according to Ms. Baxter.
1167
00:57:45,087 --> 00:57:48,924
Yeah, Ms. Baxter decided
I couldn't have the song.
1168
00:57:51,051 --> 00:57:53,971
And Mom decided
I couldn't have New York.
1169
00:57:54,054 --> 00:57:56,556
And you decided
I couldn't have Mom.
1170
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,101
Sweetie, you have
to stop taking out your anger
1171
00:57:59,184 --> 00:58:00,727
at your mom on everybody else.
1172
00:58:00,811 --> 00:58:03,730
Especially people that had
nothing to do with that situation.
1173
00:58:05,190 --> 00:58:06,441
It's not fair.
1174
00:58:06,525 --> 00:58:08,068
No, it is not.
1175
00:58:09,653 --> 00:58:13,115
But it's life and we're going to
figure out a way to get through this
1176
00:58:13,198 --> 00:58:15,200
together. But in the meantime,
1177
00:58:17,077 --> 00:58:19,037
you got your work
cut out for you, kiddo.
1178
00:58:19,830 --> 00:58:22,082
You're going to pay
Jennifer back for the damages.
1179
00:58:22,165 --> 00:58:23,959
What? How?
1180
00:58:24,710 --> 00:58:26,336
By working for me.
1181
00:58:26,420 --> 00:58:28,523
And you're going to give me
the names of everybody else
1182
00:58:28,547 --> 00:58:31,550
- that was involved that can pay their share.
- I'll end up with no friends.
1183
00:58:31,633 --> 00:58:35,595
And you're going to apologize
to Jennifer and to Charlotte.
1184
00:58:36,263 --> 00:58:39,391
And until I see some significant
change in your behavior, you're grounded.
1185
00:58:40,976 --> 00:58:42,477
Give me your cell phone.
1186
00:58:42,561 --> 00:58:43,895
- Seriously?
- Yes!
1187
00:58:44,896 --> 00:58:47,149
-[grunting] -And you're
not going to the concert.
1188
00:58:48,191 --> 00:58:50,777
- I knew you'd take her side.
- It's not about sides,
1189
00:58:50,861 --> 00:58:53,613
it's about right
and wrong, and you are wrong!
1190
00:58:53,697 --> 00:58:55,532
- So you're not going.
- Fine.
1191
00:58:56,366 --> 00:58:57,926
It's not like
anyone's going to miss me.
1192
00:58:59,745 --> 00:59:02,122
But I am so not
apologizing to Charlotte.
1193
00:59:02,205 --> 00:59:04,875
- Get back here!
- Nobody cares about me!
1194
00:59:04,958 --> 00:59:09,129
Not you, or Jennifer,
or Ms. Baxter, or Mom.
1195
00:59:09,212 --> 00:59:10,380
Nobody!
1196
00:59:10,464 --> 00:59:12,299
I hate everything!
1197
00:59:19,806 --> 00:59:21,892
I can't believe you broke up
with him because of me!
1198
00:59:21,975 --> 00:59:24,655
This isn't your fault, Charlotte.
I just saw a different side of him
1199
00:59:24,728 --> 00:59:27,582
-and I wasn't comfortable... -Just
because she's awful, doesn't mean he is.
1200
00:59:27,606 --> 00:59:29,483
- Charlotte, stop.
- Stop what?
1201
00:59:29,566 --> 00:59:31,276
Letting Melissa
ruin things for you.
1202
00:59:31,359 --> 00:59:33,070
So this is my fault now?
1203
00:59:33,153 --> 00:59:35,489
No, I'm sorry,
that was a poor thing to say.
1204
00:59:35,572 --> 00:59:38,325
[sighing]
1205
00:59:38,408 --> 00:59:40,327
I tried to handle this, Mom.
1206
00:59:40,410 --> 00:59:42,829
I know and I'm sure this has
been really difficult for you
1207
00:59:42,913 --> 00:59:45,832
and I'm sorry that
I didn't see what was going on.
1208
00:59:46,958 --> 00:59:48,877
How can I help now?
1209
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,339
Well, you can't
follow me in school.
1210
00:59:53,757 --> 00:59:57,177
So what are you going to do? I mean
this thing has escalated way too far.
1211
00:59:57,260 --> 01:00:00,472
- How about I go into the principal's office with you?
- Please don't. Just...
1212
01:00:00,555 --> 01:00:01,640
Just give me a day.
1213
01:00:02,307 --> 01:00:03,507
Audrey and Henry have my back.
1214
01:00:03,558 --> 01:00:06,061
Just... [sighing]
1215
01:00:06,144 --> 01:00:08,396
Just let me try
to handle this one more time.
1216
01:00:09,314 --> 01:00:11,566
- [Jennifer] Okay, one more day.
- Okay.
1217
01:00:31,837 --> 01:00:33,296
At least I understand now.
1218
01:00:34,506 --> 01:00:36,341
Thanks, Eva. [sobbing]
1219
01:00:36,424 --> 01:00:39,511
-I should've said something...
-It's okay, I get it.
1220
01:00:40,470 --> 01:00:41,470
I'm sorry.
1221
01:00:41,513 --> 01:00:42,764
Thank you.
1222
01:00:42,848 --> 01:00:48,186
[light piano music]
1223
01:00:48,270 --> 01:00:50,772
Your dad's not going
to tell my dad, is he?
1224
01:00:50,856 --> 01:00:52,816
I don't know what
he's going to do, okay?
1225
01:00:54,526 --> 01:00:56,486
Eva, where have you been?
1226
01:00:56,570 --> 01:00:59,030
- Away from you guys.
- What's your deal?
1227
01:00:59,114 --> 01:01:00,574
My deal?
1228
01:01:00,657 --> 01:01:02,742
You're the ones who
went all "Suicide Squad"
1229
01:01:02,826 --> 01:01:04,828
on someone we barely even know.
1230
01:01:04,911 --> 01:01:07,581
So, you're choosing
Charlotte over us?
1231
01:01:07,664 --> 01:01:09,916
Pretty sure I'm
picking the decent thing
1232
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,169
over the awful thing.
1233
01:01:12,252 --> 01:01:14,546
You're out of control, MJ.
1234
01:01:14,629 --> 01:01:16,631
I can't stop you,
but I sure as heck
1235
01:01:16,756 --> 01:01:18,383
don't need to be a part of this.
1236
01:01:28,435 --> 01:01:29,728
[sniffling]
1237
01:01:29,811 --> 01:01:33,607
- [door clicking]
- [stomping]
1238
01:01:33,690 --> 01:01:38,778
[dramatic music]
1239
01:01:53,627 --> 01:01:54,627
Go ahead.
1240
01:01:56,838 --> 01:01:57,838
Say it.
1241
01:02:00,258 --> 01:02:05,889
[dramatic music]
1242
01:02:11,144 --> 01:02:12,646
[door closing]
1243
01:02:15,857 --> 01:02:17,525
[sighing]
1244
01:02:17,609 --> 01:02:18,609
[Pete] Wow.
1245
01:02:19,694 --> 01:02:20,987
Yeah, wow.
1246
01:02:22,030 --> 01:02:25,909
Man! She's mad at you,
mad at Jennifer.
1247
01:02:25,992 --> 01:02:26,993
Mad at the daughter.
1248
01:02:27,827 --> 01:02:29,263
Doesn't sound
like the Melissa I know.
1249
01:02:29,287 --> 01:02:31,373
No, it doesn't sound
the one I know, either.
1250
01:02:31,456 --> 01:02:33,708
And I went two or three rounds
with this one last night.
1251
01:02:33,833 --> 01:02:35,919
Really? How'd that go?
1252
01:02:38,588 --> 01:02:40,632
She threw the whole
Vivian thing at me. And...
1253
01:02:41,841 --> 01:02:44,177
The fact that she wants
her mom around and I don't.
1254
01:02:45,178 --> 01:02:47,114
I've just been trying
to protect her from all this,
1255
01:02:47,138 --> 01:02:49,516
and somehow,
I ended up being the bad guy.
1256
01:02:49,599 --> 01:02:51,810
Or just the first
in the line of fire.
1257
01:02:52,602 --> 01:02:53,853
I goes deeper than that.
1258
01:02:57,315 --> 01:03:00,819
Maybe she's digging at
a wound that you want to ignore.
1259
01:03:02,988 --> 01:03:03,863
Uh-huh.
1260
01:03:03,947 --> 01:03:04,947
See?
1261
01:03:06,825 --> 01:03:08,493
[sighing]
1262
01:03:09,786 --> 01:03:10,912
Vivian cheated on you.
1263
01:03:11,579 --> 01:03:13,164
And that's 100% wrong.
1264
01:03:14,249 --> 01:03:16,126
And Melissa needs to know that.
1265
01:03:16,918 --> 01:03:20,839
Divorce is hard on everyone,
especially for children.
1266
01:03:22,382 --> 01:03:24,843
And you're working so hard
to be strong and good
1267
01:03:24,926 --> 01:03:26,678
that you're not
acknowledging the hurt
1268
01:03:26,761 --> 01:03:29,139
and the real damage
that Vivian caused.
1269
01:03:29,222 --> 01:03:31,391
And if you're not going
to work through that,
1270
01:03:31,474 --> 01:03:33,727
then you're never
going to let it go.
1271
01:03:33,810 --> 01:03:38,189
[sighing] I just want her
to understand that
1272
01:03:38,273 --> 01:03:40,108
we can survive this thing,
the two of us.
1273
01:03:40,191 --> 01:03:41,985
Yeah okay, sure.
1274
01:03:42,068 --> 01:03:44,738
But you still got to show her
1275
01:03:44,821 --> 01:03:47,240
that even
the strongest of us feel pain.
1276
01:03:48,700 --> 01:03:50,702
And when you choose
to trust and to love
1277
01:03:52,412 --> 01:03:53,538
that's true strength.
1278
01:03:54,831 --> 01:03:57,792
Melissa is, [sighing]
1279
01:03:57,917 --> 01:03:59,044
she's struggling, Nate.
1280
01:04:01,046 --> 01:04:02,797
Yeah I know she is, brother.
1281
01:04:02,922 --> 01:04:04,758
So help her let it go.
1282
01:04:04,841 --> 01:04:06,968
Because if she comes out
of this thinking that
1283
01:04:07,052 --> 01:04:08,803
anger is the only way to be,
1284
01:04:10,764 --> 01:04:11,848
then we've lost her.
1285
01:04:13,141 --> 01:04:19,689
[light piano music]
1286
01:04:21,941 --> 01:04:23,902
- So how was school?
- Good.
1287
01:04:23,985 --> 01:04:26,363
- My Latin quiz was really easy.
- [bell ringing]
1288
01:04:27,364 --> 01:04:29,991
- I'm allowed to be concerned.
- Fine, I just
1289
01:04:31,284 --> 01:04:33,995
don't want to be thinking
about it every minute.
1290
01:04:34,079 --> 01:04:36,247
I mean I am,
but I don't want to be.
1291
01:04:38,041 --> 01:04:39,041
That's good.
1292
01:04:40,543 --> 01:04:43,380
I've been thinking about
something Dad used to say.
1293
01:04:44,631 --> 01:04:48,927
He always said Christmas
means hope and new beginnings.
1294
01:04:51,471 --> 01:04:52,764
Yeah he did, didn't he?
1295
01:04:52,847 --> 01:04:57,102
So, maybe NJ needs
those things more than I do.
1296
01:04:57,185 --> 01:04:59,771
Okay, but what does
that have to do with you?
1297
01:05:01,189 --> 01:05:02,565
I want to talk to Ms. Baxter
1298
01:05:03,775 --> 01:05:04,859
about giving up the solo.
1299
01:05:04,984 --> 01:05:07,278
- What?
- And letting Melissa sing it.
1300
01:05:07,362 --> 01:05:11,408
What? And let the bully win? No,
honey, that is not the way to handle this.
1301
01:05:11,491 --> 01:05:14,211
- Mom, I don't want to fight.
- Look, I'm not going to force you, okay?
1302
01:05:14,244 --> 01:05:17,288
And I know you don't want to,
but let me fight this fight for you.
1303
01:05:17,372 --> 01:05:19,999
You can't shadow me in school,
Mom. You can't fix this.
1304
01:05:20,083 --> 01:05:22,502
I can talk to the principal,
I can talk to Melissa, to Nate...
1305
01:05:22,585 --> 01:05:23,585
Stop!
1306
01:05:25,213 --> 01:05:28,299
If you really want to help,
come with me to see Ms. Baxter.
1307
01:05:31,970 --> 01:05:33,138
[sighing]
1308
01:05:42,856 --> 01:05:44,149
You don't have to do this.
1309
01:05:44,232 --> 01:05:46,025
Yes, I do.
1310
01:05:47,527 --> 01:05:48,987
Okay then.
1311
01:05:49,070 --> 01:05:50,321
Thanks for having my back.
1312
01:05:50,405 --> 01:05:51,405
Always.
1313
01:05:54,367 --> 01:05:55,618
[knocking on door]
1314
01:05:56,703 --> 01:05:57,703
Yes?
1315
01:06:03,126 --> 01:06:04,126
Are we interrupting?
1316
01:06:04,169 --> 01:06:05,295
We can come back.
1317
01:06:05,378 --> 01:06:08,173
Charlotte, why don't
you and your mother stay?
1318
01:06:08,256 --> 01:06:11,217
I'm fairly certain we're all
here to discuss the same topic.
1319
01:06:26,441 --> 01:06:28,485
[bell ringing]
1320
01:06:31,362 --> 01:06:32,363
[sighing]
1321
01:06:34,741 --> 01:06:35,741
Are you okay?
1322
01:06:36,409 --> 01:06:37,827
Have you talked to Charlotte?
1323
01:06:37,911 --> 01:06:40,705
Talked to Charlotte, about what?
1324
01:06:40,788 --> 01:06:42,415
[Audrey] The solo.
1325
01:06:42,499 --> 01:06:43,833
Why, what happened now?
1326
01:06:43,917 --> 01:06:45,126
She texted this morning.
1327
01:06:45,210 --> 01:06:46,753
She wants to give it to MJ.
1328
01:06:46,836 --> 01:06:48,588
No, no way! She'd...
1329
01:06:48,671 --> 01:06:52,175
Way. If she does that,
MJ will be unbearable.
1330
01:06:53,134 --> 01:06:57,472
Chorus will be so painful,
we have to stop Charlotte.
1331
01:06:57,555 --> 01:06:58,431
Or not.
1332
01:06:58,515 --> 01:06:59,849
What?
1333
01:06:59,933 --> 01:07:02,560
I'm saying I respect
what Charlotte's saying.
1334
01:07:02,644 --> 01:07:06,564
She's saying she doesn't need
the solo as bad as MJ does.
1335
01:07:06,648 --> 01:07:08,525
Okay, that's not it.
1336
01:07:08,608 --> 01:07:10,485
Charlotte's just done with MJ.
1337
01:07:10,568 --> 01:07:12,987
Like we all should have been
a long time ago if someone...
1338
01:07:13,071 --> 01:07:16,991
Come on, MJ hasn't
always been like this, right?
1339
01:07:17,075 --> 01:07:19,744
You, me, and NJ, we all
used to be friends together.
1340
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:22,997
That was a long time ago.
1341
01:07:23,081 --> 01:07:24,541
Like, middle school.
1342
01:07:24,624 --> 01:07:26,960
Come on, she was
fun and sweet, remember?
1343
01:07:27,043 --> 01:07:28,043
Barely.
1344
01:07:30,129 --> 01:07:32,674
Look, if it wasn't
for her mom and that...
1345
01:07:32,757 --> 01:07:35,885
Okay yeah, fine,
she has a difficult life.
1346
01:07:35,969 --> 01:07:38,513
But there are plenty
of people in this school
1347
01:07:38,596 --> 01:07:40,515
with difficult lives,
and do they run around
1348
01:07:40,598 --> 01:07:42,141
making everyone
else more miserable?
1349
01:07:42,225 --> 01:07:43,476
No, they don't.
1350
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:44,477
Thank you!
1351
01:07:44,561 --> 01:07:47,063
So, MJ has no excuse.
1352
01:07:48,940 --> 01:07:54,612
See, when you're surrounded
by people that really get you,
1353
01:07:55,697 --> 01:07:58,157
you don't want to focus
on the people that don't.
1354
01:07:58,241 --> 01:07:59,492
You know, you...
1355
01:08:01,202 --> 01:08:03,121
You almost want to just,
1356
01:08:03,204 --> 01:08:08,626
kind of focus in on
the people that do.
1357
01:08:08,710 --> 01:08:09,794
You know?
1358
01:08:12,130 --> 01:08:13,548
Um.
1359
01:08:19,554 --> 01:08:22,682
- What's that?
- I'm hoping it's not a huge mistake.
1360
01:08:22,765 --> 01:08:25,893
It can't be a huge mistake,
if it's a tiny box.
1361
01:08:25,977 --> 01:08:27,270
Merry Christmas, Audrey.
1362
01:08:27,979 --> 01:08:30,148
I don't understand.
1363
01:08:30,231 --> 01:08:32,567
Oh, you see during Christmas
time, there's this custom.
1364
01:08:32,650 --> 01:08:36,029
-People give gifts to people
who receive gifts... -Ha ha ha.
1365
01:08:36,112 --> 01:08:40,033
I mean we don't exchange gifts
till, like, Christmas Day.
1366
01:08:40,116 --> 01:08:41,743
Why are you giving me...
1367
01:08:41,826 --> 01:08:43,620
You've been my best
friend most of my life
1368
01:08:43,703 --> 01:08:46,080
and I've never really told you
how important that is. So...
1369
01:08:47,832 --> 01:08:51,461
No, I'm pretty
sure you have, once.
1370
01:08:51,544 --> 01:08:52,795
Third grade.
1371
01:08:52,879 --> 01:08:54,797
When I told off Annie Zeleski
1372
01:08:54,881 --> 01:08:59,093
for stealing the cookies out of
your lunchbox. [chuckles]
1373
01:08:59,218 --> 01:09:00,511
Look, all I'm trying to say is
1374
01:09:01,304 --> 01:09:03,139
I'm really lucky
that you're my best friend.
1375
01:09:05,183 --> 01:09:06,183
Henry.
1376
01:09:07,268 --> 01:09:09,520
-[chuckles] -And it also
made me realize that
1377
01:09:09,604 --> 01:09:11,522
maybe we could be a lot more?
1378
01:09:13,232 --> 01:09:17,695
If you'd be into that at all,
because I feel stupid.
1379
01:09:17,779 --> 01:09:20,114
And if I just wrecked
everything, I'll take the box back
1380
01:09:20,198 --> 01:09:22,450
and we'll pretend
none of this happened
1381
01:09:22,533 --> 01:09:25,078
and I'll probably transfer
to Antarctica in senior year.
1382
01:09:25,161 --> 01:09:27,497
[laughing] Please don't!
1383
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:30,124

01:19:04,782 --> 01:19:07,910
Maybe you just want to leave your
great scarf on, keep your neck warm.
1557
01:19:07,993 --> 01:19:10,120
Well, it's making
my neck sweat, so...
1558
01:19:10,204 --> 01:19:11,622
Are you sure
it's not just nerves?
1559
01:19:11,705 --> 01:19:15,251
No, I feel
absolutely ready to die.
1560
01:19:16,126 --> 01:19:17,336
You're going to be great.
1561
01:19:17,419 --> 01:19:19,672
But what if
I get up there and then
1562
01:19:19,755 --> 01:19:22,341
I start to think of Dad and I...
1563
01:19:22,424 --> 01:19:24,218
No, you're going to be fine.
You're not.
1564
01:19:24,301 --> 01:19:27,513
But I just keep thinking, that...
1565
01:19:27,596 --> 01:19:29,616
Hey, okay, so if it does
happen while you're singing,
1566
01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:31,558
just think about Dad
and how proud he'd be
1567
01:19:31,642 --> 01:19:34,019
of you for being up
there trying something new.
1568
01:19:34,103 --> 01:19:35,145
Okay?
1569
01:19:35,229 --> 01:19:36,855
And don't forget to breathe.
1570
01:19:36,939 --> 01:19:38,649
- Okay? You look beautiful.
- [laughs]
1571
01:19:38,732 --> 01:19:40,442
You're going to do great.
1572

[background talk]
1573
01:19:48,826 --> 01:19:49,826
-Oh, hi.
1574
01:19:50,536 --> 01:19:53,455
Hi, I thought you couldn't come?
1575
01:19:53,539 --> 01:19:55,666
Yeah,
Dad and I worked out a deal
1576
01:19:55,749 --> 01:19:57,918
and I'm going to be
really good about following it,
1577
01:19:58,002 --> 01:19:59,378
so he let me.
1578
01:20:00,045 --> 01:20:01,088
That's great.
1579
01:20:01,171 --> 01:20:02,965
And this wasn't
part of the deal,
1580
01:20:03,048 --> 01:20:04,248
but I just wanted to catch you
1581
01:20:04,300 --> 01:20:05,843
before you started warming up
1582
01:20:05,926 --> 01:20:08,387
and say, again, I'm sorry.
1583
01:20:10,014 --> 01:20:11,014
Thank you.
1584
01:20:12,224 --> 01:20:15,352
Did they move the time of the
song? Because it's getting...
1585
01:20:15,436 --> 01:20:18,063
Oh, I was working so
hard on relaxing that,
1586
01:20:19,440 --> 01:20:20,774
I got to go!
1587
01:20:20,899 --> 01:20:22,234
Ms. Baxter has...
1588
01:20:22,318 --> 01:20:24,069
[Both] No
tolerance for tardiness!
1589
01:20:24,153 --> 01:20:25,571

1590
01:20:25,654 --> 01:20:27,114
Henry's over there, come on.
1591
01:20:27,197 --> 01:20:29,658
- Wish me luck, Mom!
- Break both legs!
1592

[background chatter]
1593
01:20:36,540 --> 01:20:38,000
- Hey.
- Hey.
1594
01:20:39,752 --> 01:20:41,920
I have a confession to make.
1595
01:20:42,004 --> 01:20:43,004
Oh, do you now?
1596
01:20:43,797 --> 01:20:47,968
I have been to the Brown
Sugar booth twice already.
1597
01:20:50,095 --> 01:20:52,097
Are you trying to get
on Santa's naughty list?
1598
01:20:52,181 --> 01:20:54,767
- I figure I'll be okay if I share?
- [gasping]
1599
01:20:54,850 --> 01:20:57,311
Nate Prentiss,
are you trying to bribe me?
1600
01:20:57,394 --> 01:20:58,437
A little bit.
1601
01:20:59,605 --> 01:21:02,399
I am begging for forgiveness
1602
01:21:02,483 --> 01:21:05,235
and I'm using
brownies as a bribe.
1603
01:21:05,319 --> 01:21:06,945
[laughing]
1604
01:21:07,029 --> 01:21:09,323
That just might work.
1605
01:21:09,406 --> 01:21:11,283
Well, there's a lot of brownies.
1606
01:21:11,367 --> 01:21:13,827
Ah, yeah, I think
that's going to work.
1607
01:21:13,911 --> 01:21:15,329
I have a lot to apologize for.
1608
01:21:15,412 --> 01:21:18,040
- Oh, you don't really.
- I do, I do.
1609
01:21:19,625 --> 01:21:23,105
I didn't know what I was doing. I didn't know
how to help Melissa with her mom. I just...
1610
01:21:24,254 --> 01:21:26,649
I was so busy trying to convince
her everything was going to be okay
1611
01:21:26,673 --> 01:21:28,634
that I lost track
of how hurt she was.
1612
01:21:30,260 --> 01:21:31,845
Not that I'm making excuses.
1613
01:21:31,970 --> 01:21:35,307
What, that you're just
an imperfect parent, you know.
1614
01:21:35,391 --> 01:21:37,351
There's a few of us around town.
1615
01:21:37,434 --> 01:21:39,228
- [chuckling] Oh yeah?
- Hm.
1616
01:21:39,311 --> 01:21:40,646
You seem to be
doing pretty good.
1617
01:21:40,729 --> 01:21:42,272
Oh, I hope so.
1618
01:21:42,981 --> 01:21:46,527
But that didn't mean I needed
to come down on you so hard.
1619
01:21:47,569 --> 01:21:51,240
No, you were looking out
for your girl, I respect that.
1620
01:21:51,323 --> 01:21:52,699
That was good.
1621
01:21:52,783 --> 01:21:55,202
If it was me, I might
have punched me in the face.
1622
01:21:56,537 --> 01:21:58,372
I have a better idea.
1623
01:21:58,455 --> 01:21:59,455
Hold this.
1624

-That was a great ideal
-[laughing]
1626
01:22:18,392 --> 01:22:19,893
We have a saying at our house,
1627
01:22:20,561 --> 01:22:23,897
that Christmas is
a time of new beginnings.
1628
01:22:24,022 --> 01:22:28,277
So how about for this
Christmas, we try this again?
1629
01:22:29,862 --> 01:22:31,280
You got a deal.

01:22:58,140 --> 01:23:00,267
