This program is rated G
2
-00:00:02,767 --> 00:00:00,300
and is suitable for general audiences.
3
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,734
Olivia, where are you?
4
00:00:31,867 --> 00:00:33,600
We're late for the Christmas Eve gala.
5
00:00:33,734 --> 00:00:35,333
You still need to get dressed.
6
00:00:35,467 --> 00:00:36,767
I am dressed, Mom.
7
00:00:36,900 --> 00:00:38,700
Get down here.
8
00:00:38,834 --> 00:00:40,100
Okay.
9
00:00:43,066 --> 00:00:44,266
Oh no.
10
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,667
I will be glad when you grow out of this phase.
11
00:00:47,567 --> 00:00:48,567
Please.
12
00:00:51,500 --> 00:00:52,500
Go ahead.
13
00:01:15,934 --> 00:01:17,166
So?
14
00:01:17,300 --> 00:01:19,233
The treatment worked. I told you.
15
00:01:19,367 --> 00:01:20,476
The trees are going to be just fine.
16
00:01:20,500 --> 00:01:21,700
I don't know how to thank you.
17
00:01:21,734 --> 00:01:24,400
No one else could figure out what was going on.
18
00:01:24,533 --> 00:01:27,500
Guess that's why they call you the Christmas Tree Whisperer.
19
00:01:27,633 --> 00:01:29,867
Uh, yeah, I'm an evergreen specialist.
20
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,300
They don't become Christmas trees
21
00:01:31,433 --> 00:01:32,476
until someone decorates them.
22
00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:34,100
To be honest,
23
00:01:34,233 --> 00:01:36,066
I don't think they need to get all gussied up.
24
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,734
I think they're perfect just the way they are.
25
00:01:57,633 --> 00:01:59,467
Thank you very much.
26
00:02:00,633 --> 00:02:01,713
Mr. Mozzicato, how are you?
27
00:02:01,834 --> 00:02:02,667
I'm great.
28
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,900
My tree, however... not so much.
29
00:02:05,033 --> 00:02:05,834
I see that.
30
00:02:05,967 --> 00:02:07,567
Lost half of its needles overnight.
31
00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:10,066
There's still three weeks until Christmas, Jack.
32
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,033
The tree isn't supposed to look like this for another month.
33
00:02:14,166 --> 00:02:15,233
I know.
34
00:02:15,367 --> 00:02:17,042
There's something wrong with this year's entire crop,
35
00:02:17,066 --> 00:02:20,266
so I have been refunding pretty much everybody.
36
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,166
There you go.
37
00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:23,333
I'm sorry to hear that.
38
00:02:23,467 --> 00:02:24,266
Any idea what's going on?
39
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,400
I can't figure it out,
40
00:02:26,533 --> 00:02:27,910
and no one around here seems to know what it is.
41
00:02:27,934 --> 00:02:30,100
Listen, I completely understand
42
00:02:30,233 --> 00:02:31,776
if you want to buy a tree from somewhere else.
43
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,433
You've always been so generous to our family,
44
00:02:34,567 --> 00:02:37,200
even when we couldn't afford a tree.
45
00:02:37,333 --> 00:02:39,200
We can wait a bit longer.
46
00:02:39,333 --> 00:02:41,834
I don't want you to not have a Christmas tree.
47
00:02:41,967 --> 00:02:44,700
Well, if we still don't have one on Christmas Eve,
48
00:02:44,834 --> 00:02:46,400
then we'll worry about it.
49
00:02:50,133 --> 00:02:50,900
Thank you, Calvin.
50
00:02:51,033 --> 00:02:52,033
Thank you.
51
00:02:57,567 --> 00:02:58,567
Hi.
52
00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:23,800
Hi, Mom.
53
00:03:23,934 --> 00:03:24,934
Oh, hi, honey.
54
00:03:24,967 --> 00:03:26,533
Hey, your dad and I want to know
55
00:03:26,667 --> 00:03:27,910
what time you'll be home on Friday night.
56
00:03:27,934 --> 00:03:29,800
Our party starts at 6.
57
00:03:29,934 --> 00:03:31,967
Oh, and don't forget to bring your dress
58
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:33,667
and that beautiful red coat
59
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,567
for the Christmas Eve gala at the marina.
60
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:36,910
No, no. I thought that was canceled.
61
00:03:36,934 --> 00:03:38,467
It's only because the committee knew
62
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,934
that everybody important was going to be at your wedding,
63
00:03:41,066 --> 00:03:42,900
and so once you canceled...
64
00:03:43,033 --> 00:03:45,133
The Christmas Eve gala was back on.
65
00:03:45,266 --> 00:03:46,533
Right.
66
00:03:46,667 --> 00:03:48,367
So we can't very well
67
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:49,967
just sit around Christmas Eve moping.
68
00:03:50,100 --> 00:03:51,333
I'm not moping.
69
00:03:51,467 --> 00:03:52,967
Oh. Well, good.
70
00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:53,900
So then you'll come.
71
00:03:54,033 --> 00:03:55,033
I really don't want to.
72
00:03:55,166 --> 00:03:57,834
Oh. Well, everyone wants to see you.
73
00:03:57,967 --> 00:04:00,300
I don't want to talk to everyone.
74
00:04:00,433 --> 00:04:02,700
Honey, I know you've always been more comfortable
75
00:04:02,834 --> 00:04:04,433
around plants than people,
76
00:04:04,567 --> 00:04:06,200
but your dad and I want you to come home.
77
00:04:06,333 --> 00:04:07,834
We want to make sure you're okay.
78
00:04:07,967 --> 00:04:09,333
I'm fine.
79
00:04:09,467 --> 00:04:11,400
I'm happy I ended things.
80
00:04:11,533 --> 00:04:13,500
The life Justin wanted was just too much like...
81
00:04:13,633 --> 00:04:14,633
Like...?
82
00:04:14,767 --> 00:04:16,333
Never mind.
83
00:04:16,467 --> 00:04:17,800
Doesn't matter now.
84
00:04:17,934 --> 00:04:18,943
Love you. See you at home.
85
00:04:18,967 --> 00:04:19,734
But when?
86
00:04:19,867 --> 00:04:21,133
Soon. Promise.
87
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,033
The gala.
88
00:04:26,166 --> 00:04:27,166
Oh...
89
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,343
You don't have to make dinner for me, Mom.
90
00:04:47,367 --> 00:04:49,300
This has been my kitchen for 40 years.
91
00:04:49,433 --> 00:04:50,633
I'll do what I want.
92
00:04:50,767 --> 00:04:52,876
You didn't have to move into that active adult community.
93
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:53,900
You know that, right?
94
00:04:54,033 --> 00:04:56,100
Your father and I made those arrangements
95
00:04:56,233 --> 00:04:57,100
when he got sick.
96
00:04:57,233 --> 00:04:59,066
He didn't want me to spend my golden years
97
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,900
sitting around here all by myself.
98
00:05:01,033 --> 00:05:02,100
I'm here.
99
00:05:02,233 --> 00:05:04,400
Yes, but you're terrible at mah-jongg.
100
00:05:05,433 --> 00:05:08,734
Oh, honey, all my friends are there.
101
00:05:08,867 --> 00:05:10,266
It's kind of like college,
102
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,200
only I don't have to study or take a test...
103
00:05:13,333 --> 00:05:15,400
and I can sleep till noon.
104
00:05:15,533 --> 00:05:16,567
I love it. Good.
105
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:19,834
This is going to be your house now,
106
00:05:19,967 --> 00:05:22,300
and you will raise your family here.
107
00:05:22,433 --> 00:05:23,633
Here we go.
108
00:05:23,767 --> 00:05:26,533
Of course, first you actually have to try to find someone.
109
00:05:26,667 --> 00:05:28,467
I'm, uh, too busy for that, Mom.
110
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:29,967
Life isn't just about work.
111
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:31,133
It is when you're trying
112
00:05:31,266 --> 00:05:32,443
to keep your family's hundred-year-old business
113
00:05:32,467 --> 00:05:33,467
in the black.
114
00:05:33,533 --> 00:05:35,600
Well, they all managed to find some balance
115
00:05:35,734 --> 00:05:37,767
between work and family.
116
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:39,343
Right now, I just want to try to figure out
117
00:05:39,367 --> 00:05:40,409
what's wrong with my trees,
118
00:05:40,433 --> 00:05:42,100
and then I'll...
119
00:05:42,233 --> 00:05:43,793
and then I'll worry about balance, okay?
120
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,200
Ooh...
121
00:05:46,333 --> 00:05:47,700
Kelly, Elliott.
122
00:05:47,834 --> 00:05:49,033
I was hoping you'd stop by.
123
00:05:49,166 --> 00:05:50,567
Hi, Mrs. Connor.
124
00:05:50,700 --> 00:05:52,433
Sit. I made turkey chili.
125
00:05:52,567 --> 00:05:54,433
- Oh, score! - Yes!
126
00:05:54,567 --> 00:05:55,567
I knew it.
127
00:05:55,700 --> 00:05:57,400
You guys only like me for my mom's cooking.
128
00:05:57,533 --> 00:06:00,500
I thought that had been firmly established.
129
00:06:00,633 --> 00:06:01,767
For you.
130
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,767
Oh. You heard.
131
00:06:04,900 --> 00:06:06,967
A few people at the tasting room
132
00:06:07,100 --> 00:06:07,834
talking about it.
133
00:06:07,967 --> 00:06:09,600
By "a few," you mean...
134
00:06:09,734 --> 00:06:10,800
Pretty much everyone.
135
00:06:13,266 --> 00:06:15,500
So, any luck figuring out what's going on?
136
00:06:15,633 --> 00:06:18,734
No. My mom's never seen anything like this in the past.
137
00:06:18,867 --> 00:06:20,476
I've gone through my dad and grandpa's journal.
138
00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:21,533
There's nothing,
139
00:06:21,667 --> 00:06:23,409
and even the local arborist doesn't know what it is.
140
00:06:23,433 --> 00:06:24,200
What are you going to do?
141
00:06:24,333 --> 00:06:25,633
Reeve Sawyer said
142
00:06:25,767 --> 00:06:27,800
there's some kind of Christmas tree expert
143
00:06:27,934 --> 00:06:28,934
over at UConn,
144
00:06:28,967 --> 00:06:30,607
so I'm going to call there in the morning.
145
00:06:30,734 --> 00:06:32,266
Well, I'll be right here with you.
146
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,443
- Thanks, man. - Uh, Elliott,
147
00:06:33,467 --> 00:06:35,633
I won't be here for breakfast in the morning.
148
00:06:35,767 --> 00:06:37,233
Oh.
149
00:06:37,367 --> 00:06:38,934
Then I'll be with you in spirit.
150
00:06:39,066 --> 00:06:40,100
Right.
151
00:06:50,900 --> 00:06:52,380
Olivia, what are you still doing here?
152
00:06:52,433 --> 00:06:53,476
You're going to hit standstill traffic
153
00:06:53,500 --> 00:06:55,000
going from here down to Westport.
154
00:06:55,133 --> 00:06:56,367
That's the plan.
155
00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:57,710
Are you sure you're doing okay?
156
00:06:57,734 --> 00:07:00,433
I know this was supposed to be your wedding weekend...
157
00:07:00,567 --> 00:07:01,433
I'm fine.
158
00:07:01,567 --> 00:07:02,976
Why does everyone think I'm not fine?
159
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,280
Because you never talk about it.
160
00:07:04,367 --> 00:07:05,800
That doesn't mean I'm not fine.
161
00:07:05,934 --> 00:07:07,009
It just means I don't want to talk...
162
00:07:07,033 --> 00:07:08,042
Don't want to talk about it.
163
00:07:08,066 --> 00:07:09,166
Got it, got it.
164
00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:10,300
Hmm.
165
00:07:11,133 --> 00:07:12,800
It's just, you know,
166
00:07:12,934 --> 00:07:15,967
you're barely even acknowledging that it's Christmas.
167
00:07:17,533 --> 00:07:21,066
Truthfully, I'm just Christmassed out.
168
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,266
All my parents care about
169
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,066
is people seeing their perfect Christmas.
170
00:07:25,166 --> 00:07:26,767
It's a lot.
171
00:07:26,900 --> 00:07:28,876
If I could skip the whole thing this year, I would.
172
00:07:28,900 --> 00:07:30,000
Oh, yes!
173
00:07:30,133 --> 00:07:31,309
There's a huge traffic jam on the Merritt.
174
00:07:31,333 --> 00:07:33,533
Okay, well, you can't sit around here
175
00:07:33,667 --> 00:07:34,367
the entire break.
176
00:07:34,500 --> 00:07:35,967
At least come out with me and Adam
177
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:36,834
for Christmas Eve.
178
00:07:36,967 --> 00:07:38,867
Didn't you say you thought
179
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,266
Adam was going to propose to you on Christmas Eve?
180
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,767
Well, yes, but that...
181
00:07:44,900 --> 00:07:47,533
But nothing. I'm fine.
182
00:07:47,667 --> 00:07:49,000
It's a few days of my mom saying,
183
00:07:49,133 --> 00:07:52,033
"Is that what you're wearing?"
184
00:07:52,166 --> 00:07:53,266
I'm going to be fine.
185
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,400
Okay.
186
00:07:55,533 --> 00:07:56,967
- Olivia Arden. - Yeah, hi.
187
00:07:57,100 --> 00:07:58,800
I'm hoping you can help me.
188
00:07:58,934 --> 00:08:00,576
A friend said that there was someone over there
189
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,567
that's an expert on Christmas trees.
190
00:08:02,700 --> 00:08:03,780
Oh, you're probably looking
191
00:08:03,867 --> 00:08:05,176
for the chief evergreen horticulturist
192
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,476
at the UConn College of Agriculture.
193
00:08:06,500 --> 00:08:08,967
Yes, that sounds like the person I'm looking for.
194
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:11,166
That's me. What can I help you with?
195
00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:12,576
Look, I know it's only a week before Christmas,
196
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,076
so you're probably busy or on vacation,
197
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:15,767
but my fir trees are dropping needles
198
00:08:15,900 --> 00:08:17,433
almost immediately after being cut.
199
00:08:17,567 --> 00:08:20,100
No one locally seems to know what's going on.
200
00:08:20,233 --> 00:08:22,166
I'm the fourth-generation owner of this farm.
201
00:08:22,300 --> 00:08:24,800
We've never seen anything like this before, and I just...
202
00:08:24,934 --> 00:08:26,042
I'm getting pretty desperate,
203
00:08:26,066 --> 00:08:28,567
and I was wondering if you happen to have time,
204
00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:29,900
you could come to Avon, and...
205
00:08:29,934 --> 00:08:31,066
I have time, actually.
206
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:32,367
Yes, I do have time.
207
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:33,500
How's this afternoon?
208
00:08:33,567 --> 00:08:35,433
I can get up to Avon in less than an hour.
209
00:08:35,567 --> 00:08:36,834
Really?
210
00:08:36,967 --> 00:08:37,734
That's amazing.
211
00:08:37,867 --> 00:08:39,433
You're not too busy?
212
00:08:39,567 --> 00:08:41,266
I mean, I think I can squeeze you in.
213
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:42,600
That's incredible news.
214
00:08:42,734 --> 00:08:46,300
It's Connor's Christmas Trees, 523 Rock Oak Lane.
215
00:08:46,433 --> 00:08:47,200
Okay.
216
00:08:47,333 --> 00:08:48,800
I will see you soon.
217
00:08:48,934 --> 00:08:49,934
See you soon.
218
00:08:51,333 --> 00:08:53,467
Looks like I'm up for a little detour.
219
00:08:57,233 --> 00:08:59,400
Okay, see you in a little bit.
220
00:09:01,633 --> 00:09:02,367
I'll see you in a bit, Mom.
221
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:03,900
Oh, wait.
222
00:09:04,033 --> 00:09:06,500
What time is the person from UConn getting here?
223
00:09:06,633 --> 00:09:08,500
She's going to be here within the hour.
224
00:09:08,633 --> 00:09:10,576
I'm just going to go do a quick pickup for Miss Plankis.
225
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,433
Well, look on the bright side.
226
00:09:12,567 --> 00:09:13,367
From what I've heard,
227
00:09:13,500 --> 00:09:16,367
our customers are willing to wait
228
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:18,266
until they can buy from us again this year.
229
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,567
Now, that's loyalty.
230
00:09:20,700 --> 00:09:21,900
And, uh, you earned it.
231
00:09:22,033 --> 00:09:25,433
Thank you, but that took a decade to build,
232
00:09:25,567 --> 00:09:26,667
and I could lose it all
233
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,166
if our customers don't have a tree by Christmas.
234
00:09:29,300 --> 00:09:30,533
Yeah.
235
00:09:30,667 --> 00:09:32,076
Anyway, look, I'll see you in 20 minutes.
236
00:09:32,100 --> 00:09:33,100
Yeah.
237
00:09:44,767 --> 00:09:46,066
Enter roundabout.
238
00:09:48,333 --> 00:09:50,834
Enter roundabout.
239
00:09:51,934 --> 00:09:53,033
Oh!
240
00:09:53,166 --> 00:09:54,333
Exit right.
241
00:09:54,467 --> 00:09:56,000
Seriously?
242
00:09:56,133 --> 00:09:57,133
Oh, man.
243
00:09:59,266 --> 00:10:00,967
Recalculating route.
244
00:10:01,100 --> 00:10:02,100
Too late, lady.
245
00:10:03,967 --> 00:10:04,667
Are you okay?
246
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,533
I'm fine. You?
247
00:10:06,667 --> 00:10:07,400
Oh, I'm fine.
248
00:10:07,533 --> 00:10:09,333
It was just a love tap.
249
00:10:09,467 --> 00:10:10,476
Sorry, that's just what people call it,
250
00:10:10,500 --> 00:10:11,967
which doesn't make any sense,
251
00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:14,333
considering it's almost always a total stranger.
252
00:10:14,467 --> 00:10:17,467
It seems a little more like a punch than a tap.
253
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,900
You did hit the brakes pretty hard.
254
00:10:20,033 --> 00:10:21,867
Well, it was my exit, so I slowed down.
255
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,276
Looks like you realized that a smidge too late.
256
00:10:23,300 --> 00:10:24,133
If you weren't tailgating...
257
00:10:24,266 --> 00:10:25,000
I wasn't tailgating.
258
00:10:25,133 --> 00:10:26,533
Okay, you know what?
259
00:10:26,667 --> 00:10:28,066
Let's just exchange insurance info.
260
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:28,967
Right.
261
00:10:29,100 --> 00:10:30,834
Yeah.
262
00:10:30,967 --> 00:10:33,333
This is just what I need today.
263
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:36,367
Well, I'm sure there isn't too much damage.
264
00:10:36,500 --> 00:10:37,633
No.
265
00:10:37,767 --> 00:10:39,734
That tree, on the other hand...
266
00:10:39,867 --> 00:10:42,400
looks totaled.
267
00:10:42,533 --> 00:10:43,300
You got that right.
268
00:10:43,433 --> 00:10:45,233
That's why I was in a rush.
269
00:10:45,367 --> 00:10:49,700
I'm meeting someone who supposedly knows how to fix it.
270
00:10:49,834 --> 00:10:50,567
Here you go.
271
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:53,066
Uh, yeah.
272
00:10:55,066 --> 00:10:57,834
Yeah. They call her the Christmas Tree Whisperer...
273
00:10:59,367 --> 00:11:01,500
Which is a bit much, if you ask me.
274
00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:05,033
Well, that's pretty cheesy,
275
00:11:05,166 --> 00:11:08,934
but maybe she doesn't call herself that.
276
00:11:09,066 --> 00:11:10,600
And...
277
00:11:10,734 --> 00:11:13,000
maybe she really is that good.
278
00:11:13,133 --> 00:11:14,767
Maybe...
279
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:16,667
but I'm trying not to get my hopes up.
280
00:11:18,367 --> 00:11:19,767
Anyway, listen.
281
00:11:19,900 --> 00:11:22,600
Just get me the estimate, and I'll take care of all this.
282
00:11:22,734 --> 00:11:24,100
Thank you.
283
00:11:24,233 --> 00:11:25,000
You're welcome.
284
00:11:25,133 --> 00:11:26,834
I'm going to need your info.
285
00:11:26,967 --> 00:11:28,166
Yes.
286
00:11:32,533 --> 00:11:33,300
Oh, shoot.
287
00:11:33,433 --> 00:11:34,233
I'm trying to find it.
288
00:11:34,367 --> 00:11:35,407
Oh, sorry. It's not you.
289
00:11:35,533 --> 00:11:37,042
It's just I'm going to be late. I have this meeting.
290
00:11:37,066 --> 00:11:38,066
So do I.
291
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,400
Oh yeah? Where are you headed?
292
00:11:43,867 --> 00:11:45,433
Connor's Christmas Trees.
293
00:11:48,467 --> 00:11:50,033
Right.
294
00:11:50,166 --> 00:11:52,533
Yeah. See you there.
295
00:11:52,667 --> 00:11:53,667
Yeah.
296
00:12:03,567 --> 00:12:04,567
Oh no.
297
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:07,000
Oh no.
298
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,233
I am really sorry.
299
00:12:13,367 --> 00:12:16,000
Clearly, you were heading somewhere after our meeting.
300
00:12:16,133 --> 00:12:18,600
Oh, just to Westport for a week.
301
00:12:18,734 --> 00:12:19,774
Christmas with the family.
302
00:12:19,900 --> 00:12:21,209
You can't do that without a tailpipe.
303
00:12:21,233 --> 00:12:22,300
Nope.
304
00:12:22,433 --> 00:12:23,676
Yeah, if you don't mind the engine stalling
305
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:25,500
every few minutes.
306
00:12:25,633 --> 00:12:26,500
And the noise. And the fumes.
307
00:12:26,633 --> 00:12:27,800
Yes, yes.
308
00:12:27,934 --> 00:12:29,633
I must stay and wait for the repairs.
309
00:12:29,767 --> 00:12:30,767
For the planet.
310
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,509
It's fine if I get there a little late tonight.
311
00:12:34,533 --> 00:12:36,600
Actually, I just got a text from the shop.
312
00:12:36,734 --> 00:12:38,943
It looks like the replacement won't be here until tomorrow.
313
00:12:38,967 --> 00:12:40,133
Darn the luck.
314
00:12:40,266 --> 00:12:44,033
I feel like you're not really in a rush to get home.
315
00:12:44,166 --> 00:12:46,066
Listen, my cousin Lisa runs the Old Avon Inn.
316
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,309
It's a few blocks from here.
317
00:12:47,333 --> 00:12:49,276
Why don't you stay overnight till your car's ready,
318
00:12:49,300 --> 00:12:50,340
and we'll take care of it?
319
00:12:51,533 --> 00:12:52,600
You don't have to do that.
320
00:12:52,734 --> 00:12:53,976
You didn't have to come here, and you did,
321
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,166
and I appreciate it.
322
00:12:56,934 --> 00:12:58,233
I mean, it would be better
323
00:12:58,367 --> 00:12:59,700
to take the soil samples at dawn.
324
00:12:59,834 --> 00:13:01,314
That way, I'd get the best temperature
325
00:13:01,433 --> 00:13:03,500
for measuring microbes and moisture.
326
00:13:03,633 --> 00:13:04,867
There you go. Win-win.
327
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Unless, of course, they're not fixable.
328
00:13:08,133 --> 00:13:08,967
Then it's win-lose.
329
00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:10,100
Who wins?
330
00:13:10,133 --> 00:13:11,633
Well, you. You still get paid.
331
00:13:11,767 --> 00:13:13,647
I'm not going to charge you if I can't help you.
332
00:13:13,700 --> 00:13:15,233
I'm not going to let you work for free.
333
00:13:15,367 --> 00:13:16,200
Wait. Does that mean
334
00:13:16,333 --> 00:13:17,200
you don't think you can actually help me?
335
00:13:17,333 --> 00:13:18,467
I didn't say that.
336
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,233
Oh, you're hedging your bets.
337
00:13:22,700 --> 00:13:24,533
I'm all about evergreens.
338
00:13:25,967 --> 00:13:27,233
I don't do hedges.
339
00:13:27,367 --> 00:13:29,133
Hmm.
340
00:13:35,867 --> 00:13:37,233
Lisa, thank you so much for this.
341
00:13:37,367 --> 00:13:38,533
This is Olivia.
342
00:13:38,667 --> 00:13:40,066
Hi.
343
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,276
Well, I just hope you can help.
344
00:13:41,300 --> 00:13:43,200
I'll do everything I can.
345
00:13:43,333 --> 00:13:44,676
Well, you came on the perfect night.
346
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:46,333
Tonight's our big Christmas open house.
347
00:13:46,467 --> 00:13:48,467
Dinner, dessert, my famous hot cocoa...
348
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:49,867
I know everyone always says
349
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,720
their famous whatever-they-make is the best,
350
00:13:51,834 --> 00:13:52,834
but hers really is.
351
00:13:52,967 --> 00:13:54,433
Thank you for the invitation,
352
00:13:54,567 --> 00:13:56,100
but I'm really just here to work.
353
00:13:56,233 --> 00:14:00,000
Okay. Well, um, here is the code to your room,
354
00:14:00,133 --> 00:14:01,734
and just in case you change your mind,
355
00:14:01,867 --> 00:14:02,734
here is a flyer
356
00:14:02,867 --> 00:14:04,309
to this week's community Christmas events.
357
00:14:04,333 --> 00:14:05,567
You might change your mind.
358
00:14:05,700 --> 00:14:06,433
- Okay. - It's...
359
00:14:06,567 --> 00:14:08,600
Okay.
360
00:14:08,734 --> 00:14:10,100
Uh... I...
361
00:14:10,233 --> 00:14:11,409
- Oh, you want a hand? - No, I'm good, thanks.
362
00:14:11,433 --> 00:14:12,900
Okay.
363
00:14:13,033 --> 00:14:16,133
Let us know if you need anything.
364
00:14:16,266 --> 00:14:17,734
Man...
365
00:14:17,867 --> 00:14:19,100
I hit her car.
366
00:14:19,233 --> 00:14:20,900
- What? - Yeah. I hit her car.
367
00:14:21,033 --> 00:14:22,600
That's a great start, Jack.
368
00:14:22,734 --> 00:14:24,066
I know.
369
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:43,600
Okay. All right.
370
00:14:47,734 --> 00:14:49,200
Hi, Mom.
371
00:14:49,333 --> 00:14:51,467
I ended up coming up to Avon for a freelance job.
372
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:52,967
It was supposed to be quick,
373
00:14:53,166 --> 00:14:55,367
and, uh, my car ended up needing repairs.
374
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:56,667
Oh.
375
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:57,910
Well, so when are you getting here?
376
00:14:57,934 --> 00:14:59,300
Tomorrow.
377
00:14:59,433 --> 00:15:00,200
Sometime.
378
00:15:00,333 --> 00:15:01,333
Sorry about that.
379
00:15:03,066 --> 00:15:05,033
Do I hear Christmas music?
380
00:15:05,166 --> 00:15:06,500
Uh, yeah.
381
00:15:06,633 --> 00:15:09,100
There's some Christmas party going on downstairs.
382
00:15:09,233 --> 00:15:11,033
You're going to a party?
383
00:15:11,166 --> 00:15:13,333
Oh... is that what you're wearing?
384
00:15:13,467 --> 00:15:14,500
I'm working.
385
00:15:14,633 --> 00:15:16,500
Well, still, honey.
386
00:15:16,633 --> 00:15:18,467
Speaking of that, I've got to go.
387
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:19,600
Love you. Bye.
388
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:32,467
Hey, guys. How's it going?
389
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:35,700
Hey, Jack.
390
00:15:35,834 --> 00:15:37,074
Oh, Mayor McGuire. How are you?
391
00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:38,543
Good, good. I was hoping to run into you.
392
00:15:38,567 --> 00:15:40,500
I hear you're having some tree troubles.
393
00:15:40,633 --> 00:15:41,793
Now, I don't need to tell you
394
00:15:41,867 --> 00:15:43,609
how important this year's Christmas Eve tree lighting is.
395
00:15:43,633 --> 00:15:44,633
It's a hundred years.
396
00:15:44,767 --> 00:15:47,000
I know, it's always been a Connor tree.
397
00:15:47,133 --> 00:15:48,700
You have nothing to worry about, Sean.
398
00:15:48,834 --> 00:15:49,600
I guarantee it.
399
00:15:49,734 --> 00:15:50,734
Okay, thank you, Jack.
400
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:51,810
I just needed to hear it from the farmer's mouth.
401
00:15:51,834 --> 00:15:52,567
Well, you got it.
402
00:15:52,700 --> 00:15:53,967
- Mayor? - Oh, okay.
403
00:15:54,100 --> 00:15:55,100
I've got to go.
404
00:15:57,367 --> 00:15:59,500
Hey. Listen, we need to talk about the tree.
405
00:15:59,633 --> 00:16:01,393
I know, and I know it's going to be bad news.
406
00:16:01,500 --> 00:16:03,433
So first, we cocoa.
407
00:16:03,567 --> 00:16:04,567
We what?
408
00:16:04,700 --> 00:16:05,934
We cocoa. Come.
409
00:16:06,066 --> 00:16:07,333
Oh.
410
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:09,333
All right.
411
00:16:09,467 --> 00:16:11,233
This is the best hot cocoa you have ever had.
412
00:16:11,367 --> 00:16:14,266
What is this, a down payment?
413
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,843
I get the rest after I finish the job?
414
00:16:15,867 --> 00:16:19,500
No, the rest is toppings, and that's the best part.
415
00:16:19,633 --> 00:16:21,433
Oh, I actually prefer it without toppings.
416
00:16:21,567 --> 00:16:22,867
Not even whipped cream?
417
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,200
Uh...
418
00:16:24,333 --> 00:16:25,567
It's just filler.
419
00:16:25,700 --> 00:16:26,876
It's the tinsel of hot chocolate.
420
00:16:26,900 --> 00:16:29,367
A purist, huh?
421
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:31,567
I guess I just prefer things in their natural state.
422
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:32,700
Oh.
423
00:16:32,734 --> 00:16:34,700
Take an evergreen.
424
00:16:34,834 --> 00:16:37,000
Did you know that originally
425
00:16:37,133 --> 00:16:39,309
people just brought these trees into their homes in the winter
426
00:16:39,333 --> 00:16:41,233
for the beauty of the greenery itself?
427
00:16:41,367 --> 00:16:42,467
Right.
428
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,200
But until the decorations are on it,
429
00:16:44,333 --> 00:16:45,867
it's not really a Christmas tree.
430
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,867
I mean, that's kind of what makes it special.
431
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,100
Well, there's nothing wrong
432
00:16:49,233 --> 00:16:51,400
with letting things just be what they are.
433
00:16:51,533 --> 00:16:52,800
Hmm.
434
00:16:54,734 --> 00:16:55,467
Mm.
435
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,033
Top notch.
436
00:16:57,166 --> 00:16:57,867
Right?
437
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,200
As is.
438
00:16:59,333 --> 00:17:00,867
Okay.
439
00:17:02,066 --> 00:17:03,400
All right, I'm ready for the news.
440
00:17:03,533 --> 00:17:04,266
Hit me.
441
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:05,800
All right.
442
00:17:05,934 --> 00:17:09,300
Well, I only have a couple of theories right now, but...
443
00:17:09,433 --> 00:17:10,767
Um...
444
00:17:12,467 --> 00:17:13,743
You have... you have a little something on your face.
445
00:17:13,767 --> 00:17:14,934
I do?
446
00:17:15,066 --> 00:17:16,146
Where is it? Like, up here?
447
00:17:16,266 --> 00:17:16,967
That... no, um...
448
00:17:17,100 --> 00:17:18,109
Just down there? So I got it?
449
00:17:18,133 --> 00:17:18,834
Yeah. There's still more.
450
00:17:18,967 --> 00:17:20,633
A little bit more over here?
451
00:17:20,767 --> 00:17:22,100
Okay. There we go.
452
00:17:22,233 --> 00:17:24,667
Look, it's not fair for me to guess
453
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:25,800
and ruin your night.
454
00:17:25,934 --> 00:17:28,300
Is that because your guess is that I'm doomed?
455
00:17:28,433 --> 00:17:30,133
Look, enjoy the party,
456
00:17:30,266 --> 00:17:32,834
and we'll start from scratch first thing in the morning.
457
00:17:34,066 --> 00:17:35,633
Thanks for the cocoa.
458
00:17:35,767 --> 00:17:37,500
You're welcome.
459
00:17:37,633 --> 00:17:39,000
Hey.
460
00:17:42,567 --> 00:17:44,800
Hey, are you sure you don't want to stay?
461
00:17:44,934 --> 00:17:46,867
They're actually about to start the caroling.
462
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,633
Oh, no.
463
00:17:48,767 --> 00:17:52,133
Me singing would definitely ruin your night.
464
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,100
Hello?
465
00:18:11,233 --> 00:18:12,433
Hey. I'm here. Where are you?
466
00:18:12,567 --> 00:18:13,900
Hey. Uh, I'm in the barn.
467
00:18:14,033 --> 00:18:15,033
I'll be right there.
468
00:18:39,767 --> 00:18:40,500
Need a hand?
469
00:18:40,633 --> 00:18:41,633
Oh! Hey.
470
00:18:41,734 --> 00:18:44,433
No. I'm all done. Thank you.
471
00:18:44,567 --> 00:18:45,300
So you're having a Christmas fair?
472
00:18:45,433 --> 00:18:46,467
Yeah.
473
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,400
We do a last-minute shopping event every year.
474
00:18:48,467 --> 00:18:49,467
All the vendors come out.
475
00:18:49,567 --> 00:18:50,300
It's this weekend.
476
00:18:50,433 --> 00:18:51,500
Huh.
477
00:18:51,633 --> 00:18:53,533
Hopefully by then, the lot will be back open.
478
00:18:53,667 --> 00:18:54,667
It should be.
479
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:56,000
I haven't been stumped yet.
480
00:18:56,133 --> 00:18:57,367
Stumped.
481
00:18:57,500 --> 00:18:58,600
I like that.
482
00:18:59,967 --> 00:19:01,633
Uh, don't say, "I see what you did there,"
483
00:19:01,767 --> 00:19:02,500
because I didn't.
484
00:19:02,633 --> 00:19:03,734
It's okay.
485
00:19:03,867 --> 00:19:05,166
I be-leaf you.
486
00:19:05,300 --> 00:19:07,233
Do you do this a lot?
487
00:19:07,367 --> 00:19:08,734
All the time. My friends hate it.
488
00:19:08,867 --> 00:19:10,500
It's because I was born in the fall.
489
00:19:10,633 --> 00:19:11,633
The fall?
490
00:19:11,700 --> 00:19:13,300
Yeah. Sep-timber.
491
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:15,920
Come with me. It's this way.
492
00:19:18,467 --> 00:19:20,133
These all look perfect.
493
00:19:20,266 --> 00:19:21,333
Yeah, exactly.
494
00:19:21,467 --> 00:19:23,066
I mean, they're thriving...
495
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,300
until they're cut.
496
00:19:25,734 --> 00:19:27,133
Could I see a tree
497
00:19:27,266 --> 00:19:28,576
that's been cut within the last two days?
498
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:29,600
Yeah.
499
00:19:29,667 --> 00:19:31,967
There's actually one next door at the cidery.
500
00:19:34,033 --> 00:19:35,667
This is the tree.
501
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,033
This is after only two days?
502
00:19:38,166 --> 00:19:40,333
Yep, I'm afraid so.
503
00:19:40,467 --> 00:19:41,200
Now, what do you think?
504
00:19:41,333 --> 00:19:42,166
Do you think this is needle cast?
505
00:19:42,300 --> 00:19:43,633
No.
506
00:19:43,767 --> 00:19:46,800
No, needle cast disease doesn't work this quickly.
507
00:19:46,934 --> 00:19:49,133
This is something else.
508
00:19:50,033 --> 00:19:50,767
Hi.
509
00:19:50,900 --> 00:19:53,367
I'm Kelly. This is Elliott.
510
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:54,834
- Morning, guys. - Hi.
511
00:19:54,967 --> 00:19:56,367
Hello. I'm Olivia Arden.
512
00:19:56,500 --> 00:19:58,042
Thank you for letting me take a cutting of your tree.
513
00:19:58,066 --> 00:19:59,266
Of course.
514
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:00,734
Anything for my brother here.
515
00:20:00,867 --> 00:20:02,834
Oh. You're brothers?
516
00:20:02,967 --> 00:20:04,066
Uh, he wishes,
517
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,333
'cause then maybe he'd be a little bit taller.
518
00:20:06,467 --> 00:20:09,800
Yeah, and he could afford a jacket with sleeves.
519
00:20:11,834 --> 00:20:13,133
Our families are best friends.
520
00:20:13,266 --> 00:20:15,009
We spent almost every Christmas together growing up.
521
00:20:15,033 --> 00:20:17,367
That's actually what started our PJ-all-day tradition.
522
00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:18,700
Huh.
523
00:20:18,834 --> 00:20:19,834
What?
524
00:20:19,934 --> 00:20:21,834
I had to get dressed in my Christmas best
525
00:20:21,967 --> 00:20:23,476
before even coming down to see if Santa came.
526
00:20:23,500 --> 00:20:24,367
Really?
527
00:20:24,500 --> 00:20:25,667
It's fine.
528
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:26,800
You know what you need?
529
00:20:26,867 --> 00:20:29,000
Some fresh hard cider.
530
00:20:29,133 --> 00:20:30,133
Oh!
531
00:20:32,533 --> 00:20:33,300
It's00 in the morning.
532
00:20:33,433 --> 00:20:35,133
- Yeah. - Mm-hmm.
533
00:20:39,533 --> 00:20:42,633
We're trying to crack the Bloody Mary-mimosa market.
534
00:20:42,767 --> 00:20:44,567
Guys, Olivia's got a lot of work to do.
535
00:20:44,700 --> 00:20:47,200
Okay, well, then, at least try the soft cider.
536
00:20:47,333 --> 00:20:48,133
Right out of the barrel.
537
00:20:48,266 --> 00:20:49,400
All right.
538
00:20:49,533 --> 00:20:50,900
Yeah?
539
00:20:51,033 --> 00:20:52,767
Thank you.
540
00:20:58,734 --> 00:21:00,400
That's really complex.
541
00:21:02,166 --> 00:21:06,467
I taste notes of, um, peach, cinnamon,
542
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,166
and... vanilla?
543
00:21:08,300 --> 00:21:11,467
You have a well-developed palate.
544
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,066
I've always loved how certain flavors
545
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,567
are connected to the minerals in the soil,
546
00:21:15,700 --> 00:21:18,133
and how it changes from acre to acre.
547
00:21:18,266 --> 00:21:21,033
You know, every farm has its own unique taste.
548
00:21:21,166 --> 00:21:22,266
See? She gets it.
549
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,800
Yeah.
550
00:21:24,934 --> 00:21:26,567
The soil in this part of Connecticut
551
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:28,333
is great for apples and pears
552
00:21:28,467 --> 00:21:31,400
and berries and pumpkins.
553
00:21:33,233 --> 00:21:35,009
You know, you could grow something for every season,
554
00:21:35,033 --> 00:21:36,066
not just Christmas.
555
00:21:37,700 --> 00:21:39,734
We just do Christmas trees.
556
00:21:39,867 --> 00:21:41,367
I know.
557
00:21:41,500 --> 00:21:42,876
What I'm saying is if you diversify,
558
00:21:42,900 --> 00:21:43,633
you wouldn't be so dependent on one commodity.
559
00:21:43,767 --> 00:21:44,567
I'm going to stop you right there.
560
00:21:44,700 --> 00:21:45,934
Here we go.
561
00:21:46,066 --> 00:21:49,066
My father and his grandfather and his father had a motto,
562
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,433
which was "Do one thing, and be the best."
563
00:21:51,567 --> 00:21:53,667
Christmas trees are my one thing,
564
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,533
and they're my family's legacy,
565
00:21:55,667 --> 00:21:58,767
and it's my job to keep it that way.
566
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,409
And that's what I'm here to help you do.
567
00:22:01,433 --> 00:22:02,433
Right.
568
00:22:02,567 --> 00:22:04,867
So let's rush these samples to the mobile lab.
569
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,200
Thank you so much for the cider,
570
00:22:07,333 --> 00:22:08,100
it was wonderful,
571
00:22:08,233 --> 00:22:09,600
and lovely to meet you.
572
00:22:09,734 --> 00:22:11,867
Yeah, you too.
573
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,633
- Thanks, guys. - Hey!
574
00:22:13,767 --> 00:22:15,800
Hey, bring her back for the cocktail thing.
575
00:22:15,934 --> 00:22:17,834
She's not on vacation, Kelly.
576
00:22:17,967 --> 00:22:21,166
Well, after dealing with you, she'll probably need one.
577
00:22:32,266 --> 00:22:33,500
Good morning.
578
00:22:33,633 --> 00:22:34,367
Hi.
579
00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:35,300
I'm returning...
580
00:22:35,433 --> 00:22:37,233
the pencil I borrowed.
581
00:22:38,300 --> 00:22:39,133
Real smooth, Mom.
582
00:22:39,266 --> 00:22:40,476
I'm assuming that Elliott told you?
583
00:22:40,500 --> 00:22:42,333
Of course not.
584
00:22:42,467 --> 00:22:46,967
Thank you so much for saving our farm.
585
00:22:47,100 --> 00:22:49,834
Olivia, this power hugger is my mom, Peggy.
586
00:22:49,967 --> 00:22:51,133
Mom, this is Olivia.
587
00:22:51,266 --> 00:22:52,433
Uh, nice to meet you,
588
00:22:52,567 --> 00:22:55,300
but no need to thank me.
589
00:22:55,433 --> 00:22:57,367
I haven't done anything yet.
590
00:22:57,500 --> 00:22:58,934
But I'm sure you will, though.
591
00:22:59,066 --> 00:23:01,266
How long does all this testing take?
592
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,567
Unfortunately, it's not an instant result.
593
00:23:03,700 --> 00:23:06,567
This has to sit for at least a few more hours.
594
00:23:06,700 --> 00:23:08,600
So you have some time to kill?
595
00:23:08,734 --> 00:23:10,066
I suppose so.
596
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:11,200
Hmm.
597
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:14,500
Oh. Michel said
598
00:23:14,633 --> 00:23:15,810
my car wouldn't be ready till 6.
599
00:23:15,834 --> 00:23:17,154
I don't want to be your guys' way,
600
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,867
so if you want to drop me off at the inn,
601
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,533
I can hang out there and catch up on paperwork.
602
00:23:21,667 --> 00:23:22,667
Not a problem.
603
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:23,834
Paperwork? Nonsense.
604
00:23:23,967 --> 00:23:24,967
No.
605
00:23:25,033 --> 00:23:27,066
You're going to come with us to the cider mill.
606
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,233
Oh, I've been there already today.
607
00:23:29,367 --> 00:23:30,166
It's fine. You don't have to...
608
00:23:30,300 --> 00:23:31,309
Well, didn't you tell her
609
00:23:31,333 --> 00:23:33,033
about the Christmas cocktail competition?
610
00:23:33,166 --> 00:23:34,800
She's not interested in that, Mom.
611
00:23:34,934 --> 00:23:39,467
Oh. Or maybe you're just scared someone new might dethrone you?
612
00:23:41,333 --> 00:23:42,967
I'm not too worried about that.
613
00:23:43,100 --> 00:23:44,643
Probably because you've never had to compete
614
00:23:44,667 --> 00:23:45,400
against a scientist.
615
00:23:45,533 --> 00:23:46,900
Hmm.
616
00:23:47,033 --> 00:23:48,400
Well, mixology is just
617
00:23:48,533 --> 00:23:50,867
chemistry equations in a glass.
618
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,400
It's all about balance.
619
00:23:52,533 --> 00:23:53,300
Really?
620
00:23:53,433 --> 00:23:54,133
Mm-hmm.
621
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:56,400
I thought that it was all about
622
00:23:56,533 --> 00:23:59,133
Christmas, apple cider, and instinct.
623
00:23:59,266 --> 00:24:00,066
Mm...
624
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,233
No?
625
00:24:01,367 --> 00:24:02,433
- No. - Hmm.
626
00:24:03,633 --> 00:24:04,900
Yep. He's scared.
627
00:24:07,834 --> 00:24:08,667
Really?
628
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:09,934
Okay. Let's do this.
629
00:24:22,667 --> 00:24:23,500
Mom, what's going on with you and Harry?
630
00:24:23,633 --> 00:24:25,734
- Harry? - Yeah.
631
00:24:25,867 --> 00:24:27,800
Absolutely nothing.
632
00:24:27,934 --> 00:24:30,133
He's just excited to get a free drink.
633
00:24:30,266 --> 00:24:32,500
Sure.
634
00:24:33,834 --> 00:24:35,867
I am ready.
635
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,834
Me too.
636
00:24:39,300 --> 00:24:40,567
Ooh.
637
00:24:41,834 --> 00:24:42,567
Okay.
638
00:24:42,700 --> 00:24:43,867
Everyone ready?
639
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:44,734
- Yes. - Yes.
640
00:24:44,867 --> 00:24:46,800
Remember, the only rule is
641
00:24:46,934 --> 00:24:48,233
you have to use some of our cider
642
00:24:48,367 --> 00:24:49,567
in your cocktail.
643
00:24:49,700 --> 00:24:51,533
And... go.
644
00:24:51,667 --> 00:24:52,667
All right.
645
00:24:52,767 --> 00:24:55,066
Wow. It's... scientific.
646
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:56,266
How are the levels?
647
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:57,700
Not telling.
648
00:24:57,834 --> 00:25:00,433
Four generations of Christmas tree farming, huh?
649
00:25:00,567 --> 00:25:01,433
Yep.
650
00:25:01,567 --> 00:25:03,433
Hey, are you going to use that mint?
651
00:25:03,567 --> 00:25:04,567
No.
652
00:25:04,633 --> 00:25:06,467
Thank you.
653
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,400
And you never wanted to do anything else?
654
00:25:08,533 --> 00:25:09,867
Never.
655
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:10,800
Actually, that's not true.
656
00:25:10,934 --> 00:25:11,934
When I was a little kid,
657
00:25:12,033 --> 00:25:14,600
I wanted to be the next Indiana Jones, but...
658
00:25:14,734 --> 00:25:16,300
once I discovered
659
00:25:16,433 --> 00:25:19,600
that it was less about really cool action sequences
660
00:25:19,734 --> 00:25:21,734
and more about sitting alone in a hole
661
00:25:21,867 --> 00:25:24,266
dusting off rocks with tiny little brushes,
662
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:25,400
I got over that.
663
00:25:28,767 --> 00:25:29,867
How about you?
664
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:30,867
Did you always know that this would be your calling?
665
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,200
Bartending?
666
00:25:32,333 --> 00:25:34,100
Yeah.
667
00:25:34,233 --> 00:25:34,934
Um...
668
00:25:35,066 --> 00:25:36,200
Pull that for me?
669
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:38,767
- There you go. - Thank you.
670
00:25:40,734 --> 00:25:41,533
I don't know,
671
00:25:41,667 --> 00:25:44,033
I've always felt happiest in the woods.
672
00:25:44,166 --> 00:25:45,834
I totally get that.
673
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,066
Yeah. Um, yeah, I'm going to...
674
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:52,367
lime.
675
00:25:52,500 --> 00:25:54,533
You don't like talking much about yourself, do you?
676
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,266
I'm more of a listener, I guess.
677
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:01,333
Five more minutes.
678
00:26:01,467 --> 00:26:02,767
- Whoa. Okay. - Okay.
679
00:26:02,900 --> 00:26:03,900
Thank you.
680
00:26:03,934 --> 00:26:05,014
Right. Okay, let's do this.
681
00:26:14,734 --> 00:26:16,400
Oh yeah.
682
00:26:19,100 --> 00:26:20,934
All right.
683
00:26:21,066 --> 00:26:22,333
How's that smell? Perfect.
684
00:26:22,467 --> 00:26:24,834
Hmm? Hmm?
685
00:26:30,967 --> 00:26:33,100
Okay. Everybody, gather 'round.
686
00:26:33,233 --> 00:26:34,533
Okay, moment of truth.
687
00:26:37,467 --> 00:26:38,800
Ah, so what's in yours again?
688
00:26:38,934 --> 00:26:42,200
Oh. Well, it's a perfect blend
689
00:26:42,333 --> 00:26:44,533
of cider, bourbon, cinnamon,
690
00:26:44,667 --> 00:26:46,667
lime, and herbs.
691
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,100
Oh.
692
00:26:48,233 --> 00:26:49,233
And...
693
00:26:49,300 --> 00:26:50,700
a few pine needles.
694
00:26:51,900 --> 00:26:52,667
Wait.
695
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:53,976
That wasn't on the ingredients list.
696
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,567
Technically, it was on the table,
697
00:26:55,700 --> 00:26:56,900
so I think it's fair game.
698
00:26:57,033 --> 00:26:58,900
Fine.
699
00:26:59,033 --> 00:26:59,867
What's in yours?
700
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,667
Oh, a little bit of this
701
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,367
and then just a bit of that,
702
00:27:03,500 --> 00:27:04,543
and it doesn't really matter,
703
00:27:04,567 --> 00:27:06,042
because I just go by what feels right.
704
00:27:06,066 --> 00:27:07,767
Oh. I just go by what I know is right.
705
00:27:07,900 --> 00:27:08,900
So...
706
00:27:08,967 --> 00:27:10,767
We'll see how that plays out for you.
707
00:27:10,900 --> 00:27:11,700
Pretty good strategy.
708
00:27:11,834 --> 00:27:13,200
Hmm, we'll see.
709
00:27:13,333 --> 00:27:14,500
Ahem.
710
00:27:14,633 --> 00:27:15,934
Hmm.
711
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:18,867
Oh, yeah. Wow.
712
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,233
Excuse me, excuse me.
713
00:27:20,367 --> 00:27:22,767
That is awful.
714
00:27:22,900 --> 00:27:24,333
Yeah.
715
00:27:24,467 --> 00:27:25,734
- Come on. - Truly awful.
716
00:27:25,867 --> 00:27:27,734
Come on.
717
00:27:27,867 --> 00:27:28,900
Is this the cup
718
00:27:29,033 --> 00:27:31,767
everyone poured their discarded drinks into, or...
719
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:33,700
It's been a tough year for me.
720
00:27:35,533 --> 00:27:36,967
Listen, you can't win 'em all, so...
721
00:27:42,066 --> 00:27:43,200
Actually, she can.
722
00:27:43,333 --> 00:27:44,166
We have a winner
723
00:27:44,300 --> 00:27:45,133
of the Christmas cocktail competition.
724
00:27:45,266 --> 00:27:46,300
Olivia. Olivia.
725
00:27:47,667 --> 00:27:48,667
- Really? - Really?
726
00:27:50,367 --> 00:27:52,033
Science for the win!
727
00:27:55,867 --> 00:27:57,066
Thank you. I, uh...
728
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:57,967
I won't let it go to my head.
729
00:27:58,100 --> 00:27:59,100
Good.
730
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:02,834
Yeah.
731
00:28:02,967 --> 00:28:04,076
All right, I need to try this drink.
732
00:28:04,100 --> 00:28:05,100
Let me see here.
733
00:28:07,367 --> 00:28:08,166
Mm. Wow.
734
00:28:08,300 --> 00:28:09,033
That is incredible.
735
00:28:09,166 --> 00:28:10,166
- Yeah? - Yeah.
736
00:28:10,266 --> 00:28:11,376
What are you going to call it?
737
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,934
How about the Evergreen?
738
00:28:14,233 --> 00:28:15,367
It's perfect.
739
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:18,233
To the Evergreen!
740
00:28:18,367 --> 00:28:20,066
Evergreen!
741
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:21,200
To the Evergreen.
742
00:28:21,333 --> 00:28:22,567
Clink.
743
00:28:23,700 --> 00:28:24,967
That was really impressive.
744
00:28:25,100 --> 00:28:27,633
I just think if you would have seen the one I made last year,
745
00:28:27,767 --> 00:28:28,943
I think it could have actually...
746
00:28:28,967 --> 00:28:29,667
Hey.
747
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:30,600
- Hi. - Hi.
748
00:28:30,734 --> 00:28:33,967
Jack, I just want to thank you
749
00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:34,967
for the business
750
00:28:35,100 --> 00:28:37,333
that you've given us the past couple days.
751
00:28:37,467 --> 00:28:40,100
Well, don't get used to it, Dwayne.
752
00:28:40,233 --> 00:28:42,066
Olivia, this is Dwayne.
753
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:43,910
He owns the other Christmas tree lot in town.
754
00:28:43,934 --> 00:28:47,934
Maybe the only one at the rate you're going, Jack.
755
00:28:48,066 --> 00:28:50,000
Connor's will be fine.
756
00:28:50,133 --> 00:28:50,867
I'll make sure of it.
757
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,700
And... who are you, exactly?
758
00:28:52,834 --> 00:28:54,900
I'm an evergreen expert.
759
00:28:56,633 --> 00:28:58,333
You don't need a tree lady
760
00:28:58,467 --> 00:29:00,800
to tell you what we already know.
761
00:29:00,934 --> 00:29:02,233
You're done.
762
00:29:02,367 --> 00:29:05,734
Oh, and tell the mayor I have a 30-foot Scotch pine
763
00:29:05,867 --> 00:29:07,400
if he needs it.
764
00:29:07,533 --> 00:29:09,533
All he has to do is call.
765
00:29:09,667 --> 00:29:10,400
He won't need to.
766
00:29:10,533 --> 00:29:12,500
Good day.
767
00:29:12,633 --> 00:29:13,633
Who is that guy?
768
00:29:13,767 --> 00:29:15,567
Dwayne Colson.
769
00:29:24,033 --> 00:29:25,800
You're hovering.
770
00:29:25,934 --> 00:29:27,166
No, no, I'm just, you know,
771
00:29:27,300 --> 00:29:29,166
decorating the house for Christmas
772
00:29:29,300 --> 00:29:30,300
in your general vicinity.
773
00:29:30,367 --> 00:29:31,133
Right.
774
00:29:31,266 --> 00:29:32,367
Wow.
775
00:29:37,166 --> 00:29:38,166
Oh no.
776
00:29:38,834 --> 00:29:39,667
Is it broken?
777
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,266
I don't think so.
778
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,343
Well, until we can keep these needles from falling,
779
00:29:43,367 --> 00:29:44,676
maybe we should take the ornaments down.
780
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:46,333
I know I should.
781
00:29:46,467 --> 00:29:47,910
It's just that we've been putting these up
782
00:29:47,934 --> 00:29:48,734
since the very first year
783
00:29:48,867 --> 00:29:50,633
my family started selling Christmas trees.
784
00:29:50,767 --> 00:29:52,200
There's one new ornament
785
00:29:52,333 --> 00:29:54,233
for every year that we've been in business.
786
00:29:54,367 --> 00:29:55,500
It's a tradition.
787
00:29:55,633 --> 00:29:59,200
Every single one of these has a... special meaning.
788
00:29:59,333 --> 00:30:03,033
This one is from the year I was born.
789
00:30:03,166 --> 00:30:05,500
27 years ago.
790
00:30:05,633 --> 00:30:09,834
And this one, this is from World War II.
791
00:30:09,967 --> 00:30:12,033
My grandfather was overseas,
792
00:30:12,166 --> 00:30:15,467
and he sent back some sand from Normandy.
793
00:30:19,133 --> 00:30:20,934
My family doesn't do anything like this.
794
00:30:24,166 --> 00:30:25,300
What does your family do?
795
00:30:25,433 --> 00:30:27,700
Every year, my mother chooses a theme,
796
00:30:27,834 --> 00:30:32,200
and her decorator does the rest.
797
00:30:32,333 --> 00:30:34,367
All that matters is how it looks,
798
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:36,266
not what it means.
799
00:30:38,834 --> 00:30:39,914
What was this year's theme?
800
00:30:41,667 --> 00:30:43,600
It was supposed to be a Christmas wedding.
801
00:30:46,033 --> 00:30:46,734
Uh...
802
00:30:46,867 --> 00:30:48,233
No, no, that's cool.
803
00:30:48,367 --> 00:30:50,200
I mean, whose wedding?
804
00:30:53,567 --> 00:30:54,567
Oh.
805
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,500
I canceled it.
806
00:30:56,633 --> 00:30:57,400
Over the summer.
807
00:30:57,533 --> 00:30:59,166
So...
808
00:30:59,300 --> 00:31:00,500
Right. I'm sorry.
809
00:31:00,633 --> 00:31:02,600
Don't be.
810
00:31:02,734 --> 00:31:05,767
No, you know, we wanted different things. So...
811
00:31:05,900 --> 00:31:06,900
Right.
812
00:31:07,033 --> 00:31:09,934
Just took you six months before your wedding
813
00:31:10,066 --> 00:31:11,200
to figure that out?
814
00:31:13,900 --> 00:31:15,133
I knew before then.
815
00:31:16,767 --> 00:31:18,367
Sometimes it takes me a little bit longer
816
00:31:18,433 --> 00:31:20,100
to say things out loud.
817
00:31:20,233 --> 00:31:21,600
Ah.
818
00:31:21,734 --> 00:31:24,233
One of my quirks.
819
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,600
Bless you.
820
00:31:27,734 --> 00:31:29,600
Excuse me.
821
00:31:29,734 --> 00:31:30,567
I hope I'm not getting sick.
822
00:31:30,700 --> 00:31:32,233
That's the last thing I need right now.
823
00:31:32,367 --> 00:31:34,734
Well, stress does make you more susceptible to viruses.
824
00:31:34,867 --> 00:31:36,700
Oh, that's great. I'm doomed.
825
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,367
Wait a minute.
826
00:31:41,500 --> 00:31:42,967
Maybe that's what's going on here.
827
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:45,200
There could be a disease in the trunk
828
00:31:45,333 --> 00:31:47,600
that's getting set off from the stress of being cut.
829
00:31:47,734 --> 00:31:48,734
Like transplant shock?
830
00:31:48,767 --> 00:31:50,533
Kind of. Ugh.
831
00:31:50,667 --> 00:31:51,910
I wish I could see what was going on in the trunks.
832
00:31:51,934 --> 00:31:54,533
You realize you're telling the guy who sells cut trees
833
00:31:54,667 --> 00:31:56,800
that the solution might be to not cut trees.
834
00:31:58,500 --> 00:32:00,033
I'm saying I don't know yet.
835
00:32:00,166 --> 00:32:01,433
I just...
836
00:32:01,567 --> 00:32:02,367
oh!
837
00:32:02,500 --> 00:32:03,500
You know what would help?
838
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,467
To dig up the root ball with one of the trunks.
839
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:06,600
I could cut it
840
00:32:06,734 --> 00:32:08,376
and watch what happens over the next few hours
841
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:09,166
in real time.
842
00:32:09,300 --> 00:32:10,033
Yeah, we could do that.
843
00:32:10,166 --> 00:32:11,166
We'll cut it out, and...
844
00:32:12,500 --> 00:32:13,500
It's almost00.
845
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,533
Your car is ready, and my time is up.
846
00:32:15,667 --> 00:32:17,100
Oh.
847
00:32:17,233 --> 00:32:18,033
Well, I'll stay.
848
00:32:18,166 --> 00:32:19,734
- Really? - Yeah.
849
00:32:19,867 --> 00:32:22,867
I can stay one more night and get my car tomorrow.
850
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,800
Well, I appreciate that.
851
00:32:24,934 --> 00:32:25,667
Of course.
852
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:26,633
Even if you're staying
853
00:32:26,767 --> 00:32:28,633
just so you can avoid your family.
854
00:32:30,900 --> 00:32:32,266
I care what happens to you.
855
00:32:33,934 --> 00:32:35,533
- And... and your farm. - Right.
856
00:32:35,667 --> 00:32:40,100
And there's no way I'm letting that Dwayne guy win.
857
00:32:41,734 --> 00:32:46,300
Okay, maybe the home thing, too...
858
00:32:46,433 --> 00:32:47,166
a little.
859
00:32:47,300 --> 00:32:48,567
I knew it.
860
00:32:54,266 --> 00:32:55,667
All right.
861
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:57,009
We're lucky it was warmer this week.
862
00:32:57,033 --> 00:32:58,667
The ground's not too hard.
863
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,433
Yeah.
864
00:33:00,567 --> 00:33:01,567
Oh.
865
00:33:03,233 --> 00:33:05,066
Looks like that's about to change.
866
00:33:06,633 --> 00:33:10,567
Oh, nothing like a bit of mood snow at Christmas.
867
00:33:14,700 --> 00:33:18,567
Beautiful. Right?
868
00:33:19,967 --> 00:33:20,967
Olivia?
869
00:33:21,100 --> 00:33:23,066
Over here.
870
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:24,200
Come on.
871
00:33:28,867 --> 00:33:30,533
- Ah... - What are you doing down here?
872
00:33:39,066 --> 00:33:42,834
This quiet...
873
00:33:42,967 --> 00:33:45,300
under the trees...
874
00:33:45,433 --> 00:33:50,500
it's my favorite thing in the whole world.
875
00:33:50,633 --> 00:33:55,233
It's like I'm just living in this exact moment
876
00:33:55,367 --> 00:34:01,300
where everything's perfect just the way it is.
877
00:34:01,433 --> 00:34:04,133
It's amazing how something as simple as a tree
878
00:34:04,266 --> 00:34:07,567
can bring people so much happiness.
879
00:34:09,633 --> 00:34:13,033
That's why I love what I do.
880
00:34:13,166 --> 00:34:13,967
My life's purpose
881
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:17,667
is to literally bring joy to families
882
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,100
every Christmas.
883
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,000
If I can't do that anymore...
884
00:34:24,133 --> 00:34:26,166
You don't have to worry, Jack.
885
00:34:27,667 --> 00:34:29,934
I got this.
886
00:34:33,300 --> 00:34:34,133
Hey!
887
00:34:34,266 --> 00:34:35,266
Jack.
888
00:34:37,033 --> 00:34:38,033
Miles.
889
00:34:39,333 --> 00:34:40,333
What are you doing here?
890
00:34:40,433 --> 00:34:41,467
I saw a light
891
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,743
and thought someone was stealing one of your trees
892
00:34:42,767 --> 00:34:43,500
while you're shut down.
893
00:34:43,633 --> 00:34:44,900
Oh. No.
894
00:34:45,033 --> 00:34:45,800
We're just...
895
00:34:45,934 --> 00:34:48,066
doing scientific research.
896
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,880
Is that what they're calling it these days?
897
00:34:49,967 --> 00:34:51,967
No, no. It really was.
898
00:34:52,100 --> 00:34:53,633
Okay.
899
00:34:53,767 --> 00:34:54,776
You two have a good night.
900
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,200
Thanks, Miles.
901
00:34:58,367 --> 00:34:59,433
Can you call him tomorrow
902
00:34:59,567 --> 00:35:01,133
and tell him it was actual science?
903
00:35:01,266 --> 00:35:02,467
Well...
904
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,066
Not all of it.
905
00:35:06,700 --> 00:35:08,667
No, not all of it.
906
00:35:11,533 --> 00:35:13,467
We should, uh... let's get the...
907
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:14,367
dig up the tree. Tree. Yeah.
908
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:15,800
One, two, three.
909
00:35:15,934 --> 00:35:17,734
- Yep. Go. - Push it. Yeah.
910
00:35:17,867 --> 00:35:18,867
Yeah.
911
00:35:18,900 --> 00:35:21,066
Here we go. One more.
912
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:22,300
Hey, nice.
913
00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:26,233
Grab that. There we go.
914
00:35:26,367 --> 00:35:28,600
Careful, it's a little bit slippery out here.
915
00:35:28,734 --> 00:35:30,376
Please. I'm a third-generation New Englander.
916
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:31,800
I'm... I'm good.
917
00:35:34,433 --> 00:35:36,533
Don't... say... a word.
918
00:35:36,667 --> 00:35:37,667
I would never.
919
00:35:37,734 --> 00:35:39,494
I'm a fourth-generation Connecticutian, so...
920
00:35:40,433 --> 00:35:41,667
Oh!
921
00:35:43,367 --> 00:35:44,233
Don't you dare. Don't you...
922
00:35:44,367 --> 00:35:45,100
Just...
923
00:35:45,233 --> 00:35:45,934
Let's get this inside.
924
00:35:46,066 --> 00:35:47,066
This is humiliating.
925
00:35:48,300 --> 00:35:49,767
There you go. Watch your step.
926
00:35:49,900 --> 00:35:50,700
How is it out there?
927
00:35:50,834 --> 00:35:52,867
I heard it's like a skating rink.
928
00:35:53,066 --> 00:35:55,300
Um, didn't notice.
929
00:35:55,433 --> 00:35:56,433
No, not at all.
930
00:35:59,467 --> 00:36:00,533
Hey, I, uh...
931
00:36:00,667 --> 00:36:02,609
I could pick you up in the morning after breakfast
932
00:36:02,633 --> 00:36:04,309
and we can go get your car whenever you're ready.
933
00:36:04,333 --> 00:36:05,333
Maybe after 10?
934
00:36:05,433 --> 00:36:06,633
Yeah. That's perfect.
935
00:36:06,767 --> 00:36:08,166
Right. Uh, right here?
936
00:36:08,300 --> 00:36:09,300
Yeah.
937
00:36:10,066 --> 00:36:11,066
There we go.
938
00:36:11,967 --> 00:36:13,300
I'll let you... there you go.
939
00:36:14,767 --> 00:36:15,767
- Yeah. - Yeah.
940
00:36:15,834 --> 00:36:17,133
Till then, it'll just be
941
00:36:17,266 --> 00:36:18,706
good old-fashioned scientific method.
942
00:36:18,834 --> 00:36:20,300
Which is...
943
00:36:20,433 --> 00:36:22,509
Sitting next to the tree and staring at it all night.
944
00:36:22,533 --> 00:36:23,266
Right.
945
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,166
Hope we get the answers.
946
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:26,767
Hey, we're getting there.
947
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,233
Yeah.
948
00:36:32,834 --> 00:36:35,133
Oh... thanks.
949
00:36:36,767 --> 00:36:37,500
Night.
950
00:36:37,633 --> 00:36:39,233
Good night.
951
00:36:40,533 --> 00:36:43,500
Ho ho ho ho ho!
952
00:36:43,633 --> 00:36:46,000
Thank you for letting me make my way through here.
953
00:36:46,133 --> 00:36:47,467
How's everybody feeling?
954
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:48,633
This is Lisa the Elf,
955
00:36:48,767 --> 00:36:50,800
and she's going to be my helper today.
956
00:36:50,934 --> 00:36:53,100
Oh! This is beautiful.
957
00:36:53,233 --> 00:36:54,533
Who made this for you?
958
00:36:54,667 --> 00:36:55,400
My mom.
959
00:36:55,533 --> 00:36:57,600
Oh, it's absolutely wonderful.
960
00:36:57,734 --> 00:36:59,400
I could use her advice shopping.
961
00:36:59,533 --> 00:37:00,333
Good morning.
962
00:37:00,467 --> 00:37:01,467
Hey.
963
00:37:01,533 --> 00:37:02,676
Can I get you some breakfast?
964
00:37:02,700 --> 00:37:03,776
Uh, I'm actually looking for Jack.
965
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,266
I, uh... I overslept a little bit.
966
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,166
He's... here.
967
00:37:08,300 --> 00:37:10,066
Oh, it's a very special treat.
968
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,233
Oh, I see, you want a candy cane.
969
00:37:13,367 --> 00:37:14,509
I'm sure I've got a candy cane.
970
00:37:14,533 --> 00:37:15,853
Someone will get you a candy cane.
971
00:37:29,367 --> 00:37:30,533
Hi.
972
00:37:30,667 --> 00:37:33,934
So, this is one of the favors you do for her, huh?
973
00:37:34,066 --> 00:37:35,600
I don't know what you're talking about.
974
00:37:35,734 --> 00:37:37,000
Oh, I heard Santa was here.
975
00:37:37,133 --> 00:37:38,400
Santa was here?
976
00:37:38,533 --> 00:37:39,533
Yes. And if you hurry,
977
00:37:39,567 --> 00:37:41,009
maybe you can give him your Christmas list.
978
00:37:41,033 --> 00:37:42,967
Oh, I think he already knows my Christmas list.
979
00:37:44,433 --> 00:37:45,900
You don't need Santa for that.
980
00:37:46,033 --> 00:37:47,033
You've got me.
981
00:37:48,433 --> 00:37:49,233
Yeah.
982
00:37:49,367 --> 00:37:51,066
So, how was it looking overnight?
983
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,509
You know what to do? I know what's next.
984
00:37:52,533 --> 00:37:54,166
I feel like when you're vague like that
985
00:37:54,300 --> 00:37:55,980
it's because you're holding something back.
986
00:37:56,033 --> 00:37:57,266
I'm not. There's just no point
987
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,066
in getting your hopes up, or down,
988
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:00,200
until I know for sure.
989
00:38:00,233 --> 00:38:01,667
And when will that be?
990
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,200
After I pick up my car
991
00:38:03,333 --> 00:38:05,767
and bring the samples back to the lab on campus.
992
00:38:05,900 --> 00:38:08,300
My equipment is good, but the lab is the best.
993
00:38:08,433 --> 00:38:09,166
Right.
994
00:38:09,300 --> 00:38:10,066
Sorry.
995
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:11,734
You're too tired to drive.
996
00:38:11,867 --> 00:38:13,233
Why don't I take you?
997
00:38:13,367 --> 00:38:14,567
Are you sure you have time?
998
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:16,420
Yeah. I mean, until we get this figured out,
999
00:38:16,533 --> 00:38:18,066
I've got nothing but time.
1000
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,100
Okay.
1001
00:38:30,233 --> 00:38:31,800
All the tests are up and running.
1002
00:38:31,934 --> 00:38:35,667
Now I just need to make sure I didn't forget anything.
1003
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,000
Don't touch that!
1004
00:38:37,133 --> 00:38:38,500
No, I'm not.
1005
00:38:38,633 --> 00:38:41,333
I just want to take a look at my master checklist.
1006
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:48,934
Yes.
1007
00:38:49,066 --> 00:38:50,967
What is all this?
1008
00:38:54,533 --> 00:38:56,333
Oh no.
1009
00:38:56,467 --> 00:38:58,133
I thought we canceled the order.
1010
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:01,040
That's a lot of mistletoe.
1011
00:39:01,100 --> 00:39:03,734
They were my wedding favors.
1012
00:39:03,867 --> 00:39:05,500
That must have cost a fortune.
1013
00:39:05,633 --> 00:39:07,100
Oh yeah, they did.
1014
00:39:08,467 --> 00:39:09,333
I would've been happy
1015
00:39:09,467 --> 00:39:11,000
giving everyone a bag of candy almonds.
1016
00:39:11,133 --> 00:39:11,967
Why didn't you say something?
1017
00:39:12,100 --> 00:39:14,533
Because this wasn't even
1018
00:39:14,667 --> 00:39:17,166
in the top 100 things I needed to say to him.
1019
00:39:17,300 --> 00:39:20,300
So what are you going to do with them now?
1020
00:39:25,667 --> 00:39:27,734
Why don't you sell them at the craft fair?
1021
00:39:27,867 --> 00:39:29,467
We can donate the proceeds to charity.
1022
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:30,333
Really?
1023
00:39:30,467 --> 00:39:31,567
Yeah.
1024
00:39:31,700 --> 00:39:33,367
I love that idea.
1025
00:39:33,500 --> 00:39:35,533
Especially since I usually donate Christmas trees
1026
00:39:35,667 --> 00:39:36,667
to families in need,
1027
00:39:36,700 --> 00:39:37,734
and this way,
1028
00:39:37,867 --> 00:39:39,867
we can help them buy a tree from somewhere else.
1029
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,066
Are you sure you're okay with that?
1030
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:43,800
Yeah. Of course.
1031
00:39:43,934 --> 00:39:46,266
I mean, my problem shouldn't become theirs,
1032
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,367
and for them, it's not just about the tree.
1033
00:39:48,500 --> 00:39:50,033
It's...
1034
00:39:50,166 --> 00:39:51,486
it's about what happens around it.
1035
00:39:58,433 --> 00:39:59,166
Uh, okay.
1036
00:39:59,300 --> 00:40:01,066
So we're good here.
1037
00:40:02,700 --> 00:40:05,166
All we have to do now is wait.
1038
00:40:05,300 --> 00:40:07,200
Great. For how long?
1039
00:40:07,333 --> 00:40:09,133
Uh, about ten hours.
1040
00:40:09,266 --> 00:40:11,633
Ten hours?
1041
00:40:11,767 --> 00:40:13,300
Give or take.
1042
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:18,176
I feel like this is going to be
1043
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:19,443
the longest ten hours of my life.
1044
00:40:19,467 --> 00:40:20,943
Well, you know, we don't have to stay that long.
1045
00:40:20,967 --> 00:40:21,967
Everything's automated,
1046
00:40:22,100 --> 00:40:23,533
so once it's done,
1047
00:40:23,667 --> 00:40:25,142
the results will upload to the server,
1048
00:40:25,166 --> 00:40:26,700
and I can read them from anywhere.
1049
00:40:26,834 --> 00:40:27,834
Yeah.
1050
00:40:27,934 --> 00:40:30,667
I just feel like I'm going to go nuts waiting.
1051
00:40:33,533 --> 00:40:36,900
Some of these things look like they could maybe be fun?
1052
00:40:37,033 --> 00:40:40,133
They are fun, and thank you.
1053
00:40:40,266 --> 00:40:41,867
Don't thank me yet.
1054
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,567
It's going to be fun.
1055
00:40:52,233 --> 00:40:53,934
Come on in.
1056
00:41:01,433 --> 00:41:03,934
Um, you know, why don't we take this spot here?
1057
00:41:04,066 --> 00:41:05,066
So what we're going to...
1058
00:41:05,133 --> 00:41:08,533
Oh, uh, Lisa, do we have any gingerbread trees?
1059
00:41:08,667 --> 00:41:10,700
Oh, I couldn't find the cookie cutter for that,
1060
00:41:10,834 --> 00:41:13,667
but if you want trees made out of Santa hats,
1061
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:14,633
I'm your gal.
1062
00:41:14,767 --> 00:41:15,500
How are you at baking?
1063
00:41:15,633 --> 00:41:17,166
Terrible.
1064
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:18,767
Me too.
1065
00:41:18,900 --> 00:41:19,700
Well, no trees for us, then.
1066
00:41:19,834 --> 00:41:22,133
I will not stand for such irony.
1067
00:41:22,266 --> 00:41:23,266
Come on.
1068
00:41:31,767 --> 00:41:33,100
That is brilliant.
1069
00:41:33,233 --> 00:41:34,667
- I mean, right? - Brilliant.
1070
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:35,976
All right, I'm going to need...
1071
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,467
Uh, we had no choice.
1072
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,000
I feel like you did.
1073
00:41:44,333 --> 00:41:45,333
Yeah.
1074
00:41:49,133 --> 00:41:50,333
Oh no.
1075
00:41:50,467 --> 00:41:52,100
There aren't any more gingerbread houses.
1076
00:41:52,233 --> 00:41:54,266
Oh. Hey, let's make a gingerbread version
1077
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:55,166
of your Christmas tree lot.
1078
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:56,767
- That's a great idea. - Right?
1079
00:41:58,467 --> 00:41:59,700
This way...
1080
00:42:05,967 --> 00:42:08,767
Those results can't come fast enough.
1081
00:42:08,900 --> 00:42:12,233
You know, Jack, this might not be a quick fix.
1082
00:42:12,367 --> 00:42:15,667
If you can't open your lot again this year...
1083
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,200
Then I'm going to have to email all my loyal customers
1084
00:42:19,333 --> 00:42:20,776
and tell them to get a tree from someplace else.
1085
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,734
Not Dwayne, though. Please?
1086
00:42:22,867 --> 00:42:24,476
Well, there's nothing I can do about that.
1087
00:42:24,500 --> 00:42:26,109
I just hope they come back again next year.
1088
00:42:26,133 --> 00:42:28,500
If there's something for them to come back for.
1089
00:42:28,633 --> 00:42:29,734
Yes, and that's my goal,
1090
00:42:29,867 --> 00:42:33,233
to be up and running next year at the very latest,
1091
00:42:33,367 --> 00:42:36,400
but if that doesn't happen, I just...
1092
00:42:36,533 --> 00:42:38,543
I just want to make sure that, you know, you'll be okay.
1093
00:42:38,567 --> 00:42:41,333
I mean, we can cover one bad year,
1094
00:42:41,467 --> 00:42:43,233
but if all of the trees are diseased,
1095
00:42:43,367 --> 00:42:45,333
then I don't know what I'm going to do.
1096
00:42:45,467 --> 00:42:47,734
Which is why I suggested
1097
00:42:47,867 --> 00:42:49,343
having different crops to harvest year-round.
1098
00:42:49,367 --> 00:42:50,676
Olivia, I don't want to talk about this.
1099
00:42:50,700 --> 00:42:51,980
Hey, it doesn't have to be fruit.
1100
00:42:52,033 --> 00:42:54,009
The soil's great for ornamental plants, for shrubs...
1101
00:42:54,033 --> 00:42:56,567
I mean, like, you know...
1102
00:42:56,700 --> 00:42:59,000
little... shrubs...
1103
00:42:59,133 --> 00:43:01,700
Yeah, okay, and what kind of shrub is a pink shrub?
1104
00:43:01,834 --> 00:43:03,967
Azaleas, obviously.
1105
00:43:04,100 --> 00:43:05,100
Mm, mm-hmm.
1106
00:43:05,133 --> 00:43:06,773
No, I think I'm going to stick with trees.
1107
00:43:09,066 --> 00:43:12,133
You know, azaleas bring people joy, too.
1108
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,910
The point is that diversifying would just mean
1109
00:43:15,934 --> 00:43:17,443
that you wouldn't be so dependent on Christmas
1110
00:43:17,467 --> 00:43:18,734
to survive.
1111
00:43:18,867 --> 00:43:21,667
My dad would look at all those farms that did it all,
1112
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:22,834
and he would say,
1113
00:43:22,967 --> 00:43:27,066
"Jack of all trades, master of none."
1114
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:28,209
He would be so disappointed in me
1115
00:43:28,233 --> 00:43:30,300
if I changed all that now.
1116
00:43:30,433 --> 00:43:33,567
I get it. Being named Jack doesn't really help me here.
1117
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:35,620
But at least you'd have something to fall back on
1118
00:43:35,700 --> 00:43:36,860
when things like this happen.
1119
00:43:36,900 --> 00:43:38,967
Okay.
1120
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:40,500
So you're an expert on evergreens.
1121
00:43:40,633 --> 00:43:41,500
But what if I told you
1122
00:43:41,633 --> 00:43:44,300
you also had to be an expert on roses
1123
00:43:44,433 --> 00:43:46,800
or... mangoes?
1124
00:43:46,934 --> 00:43:49,266
They don't grow mangoes in Connecticut.
1125
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,934
You know what I mean.
1126
00:43:52,066 --> 00:43:54,767
Yeah, I... I get it.
1127
00:43:54,900 --> 00:43:57,200
Sorry I brought it up.
1128
00:43:57,333 --> 00:43:58,066
Forget I said anything.
1129
00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:59,633
Oh.
1130
00:44:01,166 --> 00:44:02,433
Well, that's a sign.
1131
00:44:02,567 --> 00:44:03,767
It's... it's a cookie.
1132
00:44:03,900 --> 00:44:05,066
You know what?
1133
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,240
Maybe it's time for us to move on to something else.
1134
00:44:14,300 --> 00:44:16,633
Wow, that is impressive.
1135
00:44:16,767 --> 00:44:17,467
Thank you.
1136
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,200
You really are a natural.
1137
00:44:20,333 --> 00:44:21,066
Who knew?
1138
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:22,934
I kind of had a feeling.
1139
00:44:24,300 --> 00:44:25,667
Oh, and...
1140
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:26,533
hmm?
1141
00:44:26,667 --> 00:44:28,000
Love it.
1142
00:44:30,900 --> 00:44:31,900
Right?
1143
00:44:37,033 --> 00:44:37,800
See?
1144
00:44:37,934 --> 00:44:38,967
Wasn't so bad, was it?
1145
00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:40,834
It was wonderful.
1146
00:44:40,967 --> 00:44:42,266
Yeah.
1147
00:44:45,834 --> 00:44:46,633
I'm not going to get you.
1148
00:44:46,767 --> 00:44:47,633
- Okay, okay. - Hold it tight.
1149
00:44:47,767 --> 00:44:49,467
I should've learned my lesson last time.
1150
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:50,633
And... whssht!
1151
00:44:50,767 --> 00:44:52,276
- See? I told you. - See, I got you again.
1152
00:44:52,300 --> 00:44:53,976
And I don't get the thing about the empty presents.
1153
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,042
It's like an empty promise.
1154
00:44:55,066 --> 00:44:55,867
I mean...
1155
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,934
Oh, man.
1156
00:44:58,066 --> 00:44:59,467
What is it?
1157
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:00,910
The mayor's going to be here any minute,
1158
00:45:00,934 --> 00:45:02,533
and he's going to ask for an update
1159
00:45:02,667 --> 00:45:04,767
on the Christmas Eve tree.
1160
00:45:04,900 --> 00:45:07,200
Can you check to see if there are any results?
1161
00:45:07,333 --> 00:45:10,700
Because I could really use some good news right now.
1162
00:45:10,834 --> 00:45:11,967
Sorry, nothing yet.
1163
00:45:13,166 --> 00:45:13,867
Great.
1164
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:14,734
I've been meaning to ask you,
1165
00:45:14,867 --> 00:45:15,867
why does the town wait
1166
00:45:15,900 --> 00:45:17,140
all the way until Christmas Eve
1167
00:45:17,166 --> 00:45:19,367
to light the tree?
1168
00:45:19,500 --> 00:45:21,800
The very first year Connor's opened for business,
1169
00:45:21,934 --> 00:45:24,633
there was this huge storm on Christmas Eve,
1170
00:45:24,767 --> 00:45:26,343
and all the power went out all over town,
1171
00:45:26,367 --> 00:45:28,633
except for the square,
1172
00:45:28,767 --> 00:45:32,200
so my great-grandfather got the biggest tree we had
1173
00:45:32,333 --> 00:45:33,333
and brought it down,
1174
00:45:33,467 --> 00:45:35,700
and people from all over town came,
1175
00:45:35,834 --> 00:45:37,734
and they decorated it
1176
00:45:37,867 --> 00:45:42,066
with lights and ornaments, and...
1177
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,533
that's when it stopped being a Connor tree
1178
00:45:44,667 --> 00:45:47,133
and became everyone's tree.
1179
00:45:47,266 --> 00:45:49,033
And then from that day forward,
1180
00:45:49,166 --> 00:45:50,806
that just became a Christmas Eve tradition
1181
00:45:50,900 --> 00:45:51,900
to light the tree.
1182
00:45:51,934 --> 00:45:54,700
No wonder it means everything to you.
1183
00:45:54,834 --> 00:45:56,166
It does.
1184
00:45:56,300 --> 00:45:57,667
Hey, the barn looks great, Jack.
1185
00:45:57,800 --> 00:45:59,000
Hey, thanks.
1186
00:45:59,133 --> 00:46:01,700
But I see that the tree lot's still closed for business.
1187
00:46:01,834 --> 00:46:03,066
Yeah. Well, you know what?
1188
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,734
We're coming up with a really good solution.
1189
00:46:05,867 --> 00:46:06,934
This is Olivia.
1190
00:46:07,066 --> 00:46:10,233
She is UConn's chief evergreen horticulturalist.
1191
00:46:10,367 --> 00:46:11,133
Hello.
1192
00:46:11,266 --> 00:46:12,600
Nice to meet you.
1193
00:46:12,734 --> 00:46:14,476
The thing is, that tree has to be in place by Tuesday
1194
00:46:14,500 --> 00:46:16,000
so we have time to decorate.
1195
00:46:16,133 --> 00:46:17,200
Okay, great.
1196
00:46:17,333 --> 00:46:18,543
Well, we've got three days, and that should be fine.
1197
00:46:18,567 --> 00:46:22,400
I'm sorry, but because we're getting extra press
1198
00:46:22,533 --> 00:46:23,643
for the hundredth annual lighting,
1199
00:46:23,667 --> 00:46:25,767
we can't risk waiting until the last minute.
1200
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,633
That's why I came down in person.
1201
00:46:30,767 --> 00:46:33,200
I've decided to go with Dwayne Colson's tree instead.
1202
00:46:37,734 --> 00:46:40,166
Listen, we started the tradition
1203
00:46:40,300 --> 00:46:41,967
of lighting the tree on Christmas Eve,
1204
00:46:42,100 --> 00:46:44,400
and I have never asked for anything in return.
1205
00:46:44,533 --> 00:46:45,533
Just this once,
1206
00:46:45,667 --> 00:46:47,800
I'm asking if you can wait until Tuesday,
1207
00:46:47,934 --> 00:46:49,276
and if the tree's not in good shape,
1208
00:46:49,300 --> 00:46:51,600
you can go with Dwayne Colson, and I wouldn't blame you.
1209
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:54,867
All right.
1210
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,100
Three days, Jack.
1211
00:46:56,233 --> 00:46:57,700
Thank you.
1212
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,000
We can do that, right?
1213
00:47:02,133 --> 00:47:03,967
Three days is enough time?
1214
00:47:09,367 --> 00:47:11,467
Oh, it's just my mom.
1215
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:12,734
Hi, Mom.
1216
00:47:12,867 --> 00:47:13,734
Hi, Olivia.
1217
00:47:13,867 --> 00:47:14,633
I was going to call you.
1218
00:47:14,767 --> 00:47:15,767
This job in Avon's
1219
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:17,242
taking a little longer than I thought.
1220
00:47:17,266 --> 00:47:19,734
It is really starting to seem that you're avoiding us.
1221
00:47:19,867 --> 00:47:21,200
I've... just been busy.
1222
00:47:21,333 --> 00:47:23,567
Well, I made a nail appointment for you
1223
00:47:23,700 --> 00:47:26,333
because I know how much you just hate
1224
00:47:26,467 --> 00:47:27,900
all that dirt under there from work.
1225
00:47:28,033 --> 00:47:30,867
I'm... fine with it.
1226
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:32,609
Uh, listen, Mom. I've got to get back to work.
1227
00:47:32,633 --> 00:47:34,066
I'll be home as soon as I can.
1228
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:35,700
Okay? Love you. Bye.
1229
00:47:37,133 --> 00:47:38,900
Oh. This is it.
1230
00:47:39,033 --> 00:47:40,133
The lab results.
1231
00:47:40,266 --> 00:47:41,567
What does it say?
1232
00:47:44,767 --> 00:47:45,887
The tests haven't identified
1233
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,967
any common diseases or pathogens,
1234
00:47:48,100 --> 00:47:51,533
and now we've ruled out environmental contaminants.
1235
00:47:51,667 --> 00:47:53,233
Okay, so what does that mean?
1236
00:47:53,367 --> 00:47:54,233
There's nothing we can do?
1237
00:47:54,367 --> 00:47:55,367
We're going to have to do
1238
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:56,900
a full genetic sequencing of the DNA
1239
00:47:57,033 --> 00:47:58,033
to get our answer.
1240
00:47:58,066 --> 00:47:58,900
We will get the answer,
1241
00:47:59,033 --> 00:48:01,400
but that's going to take a few...
1242
00:48:01,533 --> 00:48:03,900
Days? That's okay.
1243
00:48:05,433 --> 00:48:06,200
Weeks.
1244
00:48:06,333 --> 00:48:08,133
Weeks?
1245
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:11,233
Jack, I'm so sorry.
1246
00:48:11,367 --> 00:48:12,100
I really wish there was a faster way.
1247
00:48:12,233 --> 00:48:14,266
Okay, so what does that mean
1248
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:16,360
for my trees that are in the ground for this year,
1249
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:17,640
and the big Christmas Eve tree?
1250
00:48:22,033 --> 00:48:23,343
See, this is where you're supposed to say,
1251
00:48:23,367 --> 00:48:24,800
"Don't worry, Jack.
1252
00:48:24,934 --> 00:48:27,734
I know how to save this year's trees."
1253
00:48:27,867 --> 00:48:28,700
Don't worry, Jack.
1254
00:48:28,834 --> 00:48:31,467
I know how to save this year's trees.
1255
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,100
Olivia, I just really need you
1256
00:48:33,233 --> 00:48:36,767
to tell me what you're really thinking.
1257
00:48:36,900 --> 00:48:38,166
Please.
1258
00:48:41,300 --> 00:48:43,900
I'm worried.
1259
00:48:44,033 --> 00:48:46,100
Because right now,
1260
00:48:46,233 --> 00:48:47,567
I don't know how to save them.
1261
00:48:47,700 --> 00:48:50,033
Hey.
1262
00:48:50,166 --> 00:48:53,633
If anyone can figure it out, it's you,
1263
00:48:53,767 --> 00:48:55,934
and there's no one else I'd rather have in my corner.
1264
00:48:59,066 --> 00:49:00,567
Thank you, Jack.
1265
00:49:02,633 --> 00:49:04,767
Okay, I'm going to go do some more research.
1266
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:15,467
What's going on?
1267
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,800
Oh, uh... it doesn't look good.
1268
00:49:17,934 --> 00:49:21,433
I'd say it's looking pretty great.
1269
00:49:21,567 --> 00:49:24,500
I'm talking about the trees.
1270
00:49:24,633 --> 00:49:25,943
For the first time in a hundred years,
1271
00:49:25,967 --> 00:49:27,667
there might not be a Connor family tree
1272
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:28,834
in the town square.
1273
00:49:28,967 --> 00:49:29,767
But for the first time
1274
00:49:29,900 --> 00:49:32,367
in what seems like a thousand years,
1275
00:49:32,500 --> 00:49:35,867
you have a chance at love.
1276
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,667
It's not the right time, Lisa.
1277
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,633
It's never the right time for you, Jack.
1278
00:49:41,767 --> 00:49:43,600
It's okay to care about your trees
1279
00:49:43,734 --> 00:49:44,934
and your legacy and your farm,
1280
00:49:45,066 --> 00:49:48,433
but that can't be the only thing you care about...
1281
00:49:48,567 --> 00:49:51,567
especially now that you've met someone like Olivia.
1282
00:50:21,266 --> 00:50:22,800
Morning.
1283
00:50:22,934 --> 00:50:24,000
Hey. Good morning.
1284
00:50:24,133 --> 00:50:24,967
What have you got there?
1285
00:50:25,100 --> 00:50:28,166
Oh, I got my car, drove to UConn,
1286
00:50:28,300 --> 00:50:29,767
raided the supply room at the lab,
1287
00:50:29,900 --> 00:50:30,940
and got everything I need.
1288
00:50:30,967 --> 00:50:32,200
I think I found a way
1289
00:50:32,333 --> 00:50:34,433
to keep this year's trees alive
1290
00:50:34,567 --> 00:50:36,333
for a week or so after getting cut.
1291
00:50:36,467 --> 00:50:37,533
Come on.
1292
00:50:37,667 --> 00:50:38,367
I knew you could do it.
1293
00:50:38,500 --> 00:50:40,266
It's a temporary fix,
1294
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,633
and I'm not done yet,
1295
00:50:42,767 --> 00:50:44,367
but if I'm right,
1296
00:50:44,500 --> 00:50:46,467
between this and the DNA work,
1297
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,967
by next year, it'll be like none of this ever happened.
1298
00:50:50,100 --> 00:50:52,033
Well, except for the part where I met you,
1299
00:50:52,166 --> 00:50:55,166
because I could do that again in a heartbeat.
1300
00:50:55,300 --> 00:50:57,000
Me too.
1301
00:50:59,333 --> 00:51:00,333
Okay, so what's the plan?
1302
00:51:00,467 --> 00:51:01,934
Okay.
1303
00:51:02,066 --> 00:51:04,066
So whatever's going on
1304
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,533
is getting triggered by the tree getting cut
1305
00:51:06,667 --> 00:51:09,333
and losing vital nutrients from the soil, right?
1306
00:51:09,467 --> 00:51:12,567
So I created a highly concentrated formula
1307
00:51:12,700 --> 00:51:15,200
to add to your trees' water after they're cut.
1308
00:51:15,333 --> 00:51:17,734
You just give it to your customers for the trees.
1309
00:51:17,867 --> 00:51:19,443
Kind of like the package you put in vases
1310
00:51:19,467 --> 00:51:20,333
when you buy flowers.
1311
00:51:20,467 --> 00:51:22,533
Except this has to be calibrated
1312
00:51:22,667 --> 00:51:25,233
to dissolve evenly over time...
1313
00:51:25,367 --> 00:51:26,676
like an extended-release medicine.
1314
00:51:26,700 --> 00:51:27,700
Huh.
1315
00:51:27,834 --> 00:51:29,433
Now I just have to figure out
1316
00:51:29,567 --> 00:51:31,400
how to create a solid base for the formula.
1317
00:51:31,533 --> 00:51:33,266
Wow.
1318
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:35,567
Wouldn't that be easier to do in your lab?
1319
00:51:35,700 --> 00:51:38,233
Yeah, but, you know,
1320
00:51:38,367 --> 00:51:40,767
it's convenient to be here to test it on the trees.
1321
00:51:40,900 --> 00:51:42,533
- Right. - And...
1322
00:51:44,533 --> 00:51:45,934
but, you know, you're right.
1323
00:51:46,066 --> 00:51:47,266
I'll go back to the lab.
1324
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:48,500
It's, um... it's...
1325
00:51:48,633 --> 00:51:50,033
- No, no, no. - Probably better.
1326
00:51:50,166 --> 00:51:51,943
You can totally do it here. You can do it in the house.
1327
00:51:51,967 --> 00:51:53,776
The truth is, most of this is too messy to do in the house.
1328
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:54,800
What about the barn?
1329
00:51:56,533 --> 00:51:57,573
What about the craft fair?
1330
00:51:59,266 --> 00:52:01,386
The craft fair doesn't have to take up the whole barn.
1331
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,967
Wait a minute.
1332
00:52:05,100 --> 00:52:07,433
Why not move part of the craft fair outside?
1333
00:52:07,567 --> 00:52:09,327
You could have a whole, like, outdoor section
1334
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,000
decorated with the lights and wreaths.
1335
00:52:12,133 --> 00:52:13,533
Everyone would be outside in nature,
1336
00:52:13,567 --> 00:52:14,967
really feeling the Christmas spirit.
1337
00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:17,900
Sort of like you are right now.
1338
00:52:19,467 --> 00:52:20,500
I guess I am.
1339
00:52:22,433 --> 00:52:25,100
But I don't know how you'd get all that together so quickly.
1340
00:52:25,233 --> 00:52:26,233
Oh, easy-peasy.
1341
00:52:26,300 --> 00:52:27,300
I'll get my mom on it.
1342
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:28,166
It'll be done within the hour.
1343
00:52:28,300 --> 00:52:29,166
Really?
1344
00:52:29,300 --> 00:52:30,300
Yeah.
1345
00:52:30,433 --> 00:52:32,009
It's the best part about living in a small community.
1346
00:52:32,033 --> 00:52:34,600
We're all here to help one another.
1347
00:52:34,734 --> 00:52:36,900
I really think this is it, Jack.
1348
00:52:37,033 --> 00:52:38,734
I really think so too.
1349
00:52:54,033 --> 00:52:55,533
Guys, this is beautiful.
1350
00:52:55,667 --> 00:52:56,367
I love it.
1351
00:52:56,500 --> 00:52:57,500
Hey, how are you?
1352
00:52:59,266 --> 00:53:01,834
Oh, mm, smells so good.
1353
00:53:01,967 --> 00:53:02,734
Oh.
1354
00:53:02,867 --> 00:53:05,500
Mom, this is amazing.
1355
00:53:05,633 --> 00:53:08,567
Oh, thank you so much for rallying the troops. Wow.
1356
00:53:08,700 --> 00:53:10,400
Are you kidding?
1357
00:53:10,533 --> 00:53:12,667
These people were lined up waiting to help.
1358
00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:13,910
You should do this every year.
1359
00:53:13,934 --> 00:53:17,367
You know, this was actually Olivia's idea.
1360
00:53:17,500 --> 00:53:18,367
We're lucky she's here.
1361
00:53:18,500 --> 00:53:19,940
Well, luck has nothing to do with it.
1362
00:53:21,033 --> 00:53:22,367
It's fate.
1363
00:53:22,500 --> 00:53:24,800
I don't know about that. She's here to do a job, Mom.
1364
00:53:24,934 --> 00:53:27,834
You think this is really about her job?
1365
00:53:27,967 --> 00:53:30,066
Oh, no.
1366
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:31,967
It's all about you now, Jack.
1367
00:53:32,100 --> 00:53:32,834
- No. - Yeah.
1368
00:53:32,967 --> 00:53:34,567
Harry!
1369
00:53:49,867 --> 00:53:51,066
I should really keep working.
1370
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:52,967
Right. Well, I think
1371
00:53:53,166 --> 00:53:54,700
you should give your brain a break.
1372
00:53:56,867 --> 00:53:58,333
Come.
1373
00:54:03,700 --> 00:54:06,266
Oh, my goodness.
1374
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:07,400
This looks incredible.
1375
00:54:07,500 --> 00:54:08,500
Right?
1376
00:54:08,533 --> 00:54:11,967
And this is all thanks to your idea.
1377
00:54:16,133 --> 00:54:17,133
Come on.
1378
00:54:17,166 --> 00:54:19,266
Let's take a little stroll together.
1379
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:22,433
Harry, you know I adore you, right?
1380
00:54:22,567 --> 00:54:24,567
But ever since Stanley died,
1381
00:54:24,700 --> 00:54:30,100
I just never saw myself strolling with anyone else.
1382
00:54:30,233 --> 00:54:32,633
Me neither, but, you know,
1383
00:54:32,767 --> 00:54:34,734
we can either choose to embrace the future
1384
00:54:34,867 --> 00:54:36,233
or resist it,
1385
00:54:36,367 --> 00:54:39,200
and... I pick embrace.
1386
00:54:40,100 --> 00:54:41,100
Come on.
1387
00:54:43,100 --> 00:54:44,100
All right.
1388
00:54:50,300 --> 00:54:52,633
They are adorable.
1389
00:54:52,767 --> 00:54:53,767
Yeah.
1390
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,834
Hey, are you okay with your mom...
1391
00:54:56,967 --> 00:54:58,109
Yeah. No, I mean, you know what?
1392
00:54:58,133 --> 00:54:59,667
My dad's been gone a while,
1393
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:01,200
and she deserves to be happy.
1394
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:04,680
Your mom's pretty lucky if she found that twice.
1395
00:55:06,767 --> 00:55:08,167
Some people don't even find it once.
1396
00:55:13,133 --> 00:55:13,934
Hey.
1397
00:55:14,066 --> 00:55:16,233
Let's go for a walk.
1398
00:55:26,500 --> 00:55:28,033
Sorry. I've got sap on my hands.
1399
00:55:28,166 --> 00:55:29,166
Oh.
1400
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:31,000
Wait!
1401
00:55:31,133 --> 00:55:34,600
Jack, this is the answer I've been looking for.
1402
00:55:34,734 --> 00:55:36,894
This is what we can use to bond the nutrients together.
1403
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:38,910
Let's go! I want to see if it works.
1404
00:55:38,934 --> 00:55:40,066
Okay.
1405
00:55:59,467 --> 00:56:01,400
Hey.
1406
00:56:01,533 --> 00:56:03,834
- This is it? - I think so.
1407
00:56:03,967 --> 00:56:06,300
All we need now is a tree to test it on.
1408
00:56:06,433 --> 00:56:08,734
Well, I've got plenty of those.
1409
00:56:08,867 --> 00:56:10,133
Let's go.
1410
00:56:11,734 --> 00:56:12,600
This is it.
1411
00:56:12,734 --> 00:56:15,100
Yeah.
1412
00:56:21,066 --> 00:56:22,567
Okay.
1413
00:56:23,467 --> 00:56:25,433
Well, I guess I'll drive you back to the inn.
1414
00:56:25,567 --> 00:56:27,233
Are you kidding?
1415
00:56:27,367 --> 00:56:28,533
I'm not going anywhere.
1416
00:56:28,667 --> 00:56:31,233
Well, then, I guess...
1417
00:56:31,367 --> 00:56:33,266
you should get comfortable.
1418
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:35,400
Thank you.
1419
00:56:38,467 --> 00:56:39,734
You don't have to stay up.
1420
00:56:39,867 --> 00:56:41,800
Of course I do.
1421
00:56:41,934 --> 00:56:43,014
I want to see what happens.
1422
00:56:58,133 --> 00:56:58,867
- Morning. - Morning.
1423
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:02,300
Uh, check on the tree.
1424
00:57:02,433 --> 00:57:04,000
Yeah.
1425
00:57:08,166 --> 00:57:09,734
Hey, not bad.
1426
00:57:11,367 --> 00:57:12,476
- Good morning. - Good morning.
1427
00:57:12,500 --> 00:57:14,066
We brought some breakfast.
1428
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:15,633
Oh, thank you.
1429
00:57:17,767 --> 00:57:19,367
So, did it work?
1430
00:57:19,500 --> 00:57:20,333
We're not going to know for sure
1431
00:57:20,467 --> 00:57:21,333
until later tonight.
1432
00:57:21,467 --> 00:57:23,967
Oh, it seems like a lot of waiting around.
1433
00:57:24,100 --> 00:57:26,166
Well, nature does not hurry,
1434
00:57:26,300 --> 00:57:28,367
but everything is accomplished.
1435
00:57:28,500 --> 00:57:30,367
That's beautiful.
1436
00:57:30,500 --> 00:57:31,500
Did you make that up?
1437
00:57:31,633 --> 00:57:33,900
Yeah.
1438
00:57:34,033 --> 00:57:35,367
Wow, that's incredible.
1439
00:57:35,500 --> 00:57:39,066
It's very similar to Lao Tzu
1440
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:40,500
from 5,000 years ago.
1441
00:57:40,633 --> 00:57:42,633
Yes. Do you study Chinese philosophy?
1442
00:57:42,767 --> 00:57:44,834
A little, yeah. Yeah.
1443
00:57:44,967 --> 00:57:46,527
Also, it was on a poster in your office.
1444
00:57:47,533 --> 00:57:48,533
Busted!
1445
00:57:51,934 --> 00:57:53,734
Good morning!
1446
00:57:53,867 --> 00:57:55,600
Squeeze in.
1447
00:57:55,734 --> 00:57:57,066
Did it work?
1448
00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:58,867
They won't know until later.
1449
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,176
So we're just going to sit here all day
1450
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:00,934
and stare at it?
1451
00:58:01,066 --> 00:58:02,700
That's the plan. Yeah.
1452
00:58:02,834 --> 00:58:05,300
I guess we can work around you for the party?
1453
00:58:05,433 --> 00:58:06,533
Ohh...
1454
00:58:06,667 --> 00:58:07,367
You forgot.
1455
00:58:07,500 --> 00:58:08,967
Did not forget.
1456
00:58:09,100 --> 00:58:11,567
I just didn't remember on time.
1457
00:58:11,700 --> 00:58:13,020
What exactly are we talking about?
1458
00:58:13,066 --> 00:58:15,567
I'm having my annual gift exchange party
1459
00:58:15,700 --> 00:58:16,433
here tonight.
1460
00:58:16,567 --> 00:58:17,333
You're going to love it.
1461
00:58:17,467 --> 00:58:19,800
You can keep your eye on the tree
1462
00:58:19,934 --> 00:58:21,900
and have fun while you're doing it.
1463
00:58:22,033 --> 00:58:23,533
That sounds fun,
1464
00:58:23,667 --> 00:58:24,810
but I don't have a gift to bring.
1465
00:58:24,834 --> 00:58:26,400
That's actually the easy part.
1466
00:58:26,533 --> 00:58:29,867
Do you guys mind continuing with the tree watching?
1467
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:31,633
Come on.
1468
00:58:32,533 --> 00:58:33,533
Okay.
1469
00:58:44,433 --> 00:58:45,667
Okay. $20 max,
1470
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:46,600
and you shouldn't see
1471
00:58:46,734 --> 00:58:48,009
what the other person is getting,
1472
00:58:48,033 --> 00:58:51,066
so you're going to have to be pretty stealth about it.
1473
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:51,900
Okay.
1474
00:58:52,033 --> 00:58:54,233
Hmm...
1475
00:58:54,367 --> 00:58:56,300
Oh, come on.
1476
00:58:56,433 --> 00:58:57,700
I mean...
1477
00:58:57,834 --> 00:59:00,333
Aw. I think that's my size.
1478
00:59:00,467 --> 00:59:02,200
This is nice.
1479
00:59:02,333 --> 00:59:04,000
Oh, very good.
1480
00:59:04,133 --> 00:59:05,133
It's a bit strong.
1481
00:59:06,767 --> 00:59:07,500
Hello?
1482
00:59:07,633 --> 00:59:08,834
Hello? Hello?
1483
00:59:26,300 --> 00:59:28,133
- Oh. - Oh.
1484
00:59:28,266 --> 00:59:29,033
I'll wait over here.
1485
00:59:29,166 --> 00:59:30,967
- Okay. - Okay.
1486
00:59:32,133 --> 00:59:32,834
Thank you.
1487
00:59:32,967 --> 00:59:33,967
Thank you.
1488
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,033
So, everyone draws a number,
1489
00:59:41,166 --> 00:59:45,000
and then the first person picks a gift and opens it.
1490
00:59:46,133 --> 00:59:47,000
I knew it.
1491
00:59:47,133 --> 00:59:49,000
Then the second person opens their gift,
1492
00:59:49,133 --> 00:59:50,000
and they can keep it...
1493
00:59:50,133 --> 00:59:51,834
Yes.
1494
00:59:51,967 --> 00:59:54,533
Somebody knows I love cheese.
1495
00:59:54,667 --> 00:59:57,500
Or they can trade it with the first person.
1496
00:59:57,633 --> 00:59:59,667
Then the third person opens their gift.
1497
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:00,533
Aw!
1498
01:00:00,667 --> 01:00:01,667
They can keep that one,
1499
01:00:01,734 --> 01:00:04,867
or they can steal from the first two.
1500
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,934
And at the end, whoever went first
1501
01:00:07,066 --> 01:00:08,767
gets one more chance to steal.
1502
01:00:08,900 --> 01:00:10,233
It gets pretty ugly.
1503
01:00:11,300 --> 01:00:13,033
"The History of the Christmas Tree."
1504
01:00:13,166 --> 01:00:14,834
- Ooh. - That's very nice.
1505
01:00:14,967 --> 01:00:17,100
History of baseball would've been nicer,
1506
01:00:17,233 --> 01:00:19,100
but who am I to complain?
1507
01:00:20,433 --> 01:00:21,166
Oh, who am I kidding?
1508
01:00:21,300 --> 01:00:22,700
Give me the blanket.
1509
01:00:23,667 --> 01:00:25,000
There we go.
1510
01:00:25,133 --> 01:00:26,133
Okay, it's my turn.
1511
01:00:26,266 --> 01:00:28,767
I'm going for this one. I saw it, I want it.
1512
01:00:30,166 --> 01:00:32,166
- Oh. - Yeah.
1513
01:00:32,300 --> 01:00:34,166
Oh, this has never happened before.
1514
01:00:34,300 --> 01:00:35,000
Wow.
1515
01:00:35,133 --> 01:00:36,700
Look at that.
1516
01:00:36,834 --> 01:00:38,800
I'm keeping it.
1517
01:00:39,734 --> 01:00:41,433
Oh, I guess I'm up.
1518
01:00:41,567 --> 01:00:42,934
- Yes. - Go for it.
1519
01:00:43,066 --> 01:00:44,300
Which one should I pick?
1520
01:00:45,300 --> 01:00:49,200
Ooh, wow. Look at that.
1521
01:00:49,333 --> 01:00:50,467
Oh!
1522
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,200
That's the best one of the night.
1523
01:00:52,333 --> 01:00:53,767
I know you're going to keep that.
1524
01:00:53,900 --> 01:00:54,900
Actually...
1525
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,100
I think I'll trade it for the book.
1526
01:00:58,233 --> 01:00:59,700
Really?
1527
01:00:59,834 --> 01:01:00,934
Yeah.
1528
01:01:01,066 --> 01:01:04,600
Well, Jack said you favor trees in their natural state.
1529
01:01:04,734 --> 01:01:06,333
Oh, did he?
1530
01:01:08,300 --> 01:01:12,166
Christmas trees... are growing on me.
1531
01:01:12,300 --> 01:01:13,900
Oh!
1532
01:01:14,033 --> 01:01:15,433
That is good.
1533
01:01:15,567 --> 01:01:17,867
She's worse than Jack.
1534
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:19,867
Okay, on that note, Jack,
1535
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:21,800
you can either keep the book,
1536
01:01:21,934 --> 01:01:24,700
or you can trade it for whatever you like the most.
1537
01:01:24,834 --> 01:01:29,500
Okay, well, I'm going to say I did really like...
1538
01:01:31,533 --> 01:01:32,767
the book.
1539
01:01:35,533 --> 01:01:36,533
Great minds.
1540
01:01:39,533 --> 01:01:41,266
Wait a minute, what's going on?
1541
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:42,400
Shh.
1542
01:01:43,667 --> 01:01:44,800
Let's go read.
1543
01:01:46,567 --> 01:01:48,800
Okay, who is ready for yule log?
1544
01:01:48,934 --> 01:01:49,934
- Yes! - Yes, yes.
1545
01:01:52,233 --> 01:01:53,934
Okay.
1546
01:01:54,066 --> 01:01:54,934
Olivia, you're first.
1547
01:01:55,066 --> 01:01:56,433
There is an ornament baked inside,
1548
01:01:56,567 --> 01:01:57,800
and whoever finds it
1549
01:01:57,934 --> 01:02:00,533
gets to switch on the lights at the tree ceremony.
1550
01:02:00,667 --> 01:02:02,133
But I'm not family.
1551
01:02:02,266 --> 01:02:05,166
Everything you have done to help Jack and the farm,
1552
01:02:05,300 --> 01:02:07,667
you will always be family to us.
1553
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:09,934
Okay, but right now, it's all a big maybe.
1554
01:02:10,066 --> 01:02:11,226
What if the fix doesn't work?
1555
01:02:11,300 --> 01:02:12,934
Well, then we shun you.
1556
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:17,800
Fair enough.
1557
01:02:17,934 --> 01:02:19,200
All right.
1558
01:02:20,967 --> 01:02:21,967
Oh!
1559
01:02:28,734 --> 01:02:31,433
Whoa. Look at that!
1560
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:35,734
That's great.
1561
01:02:35,867 --> 01:02:37,400
Okay, who wants cake?
1562
01:02:37,533 --> 01:02:38,533
Oh yeah.
1563
01:02:38,633 --> 01:02:40,467
I wish Christmas felt like this at my house.
1564
01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,000
Why can't it?
1565
01:02:42,133 --> 01:02:44,600
It's just not what my parents do.
1566
01:02:44,734 --> 01:02:45,467
Oh.
1567
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:46,934
Well, have you told them
1568
01:02:47,066 --> 01:02:48,506
what you wanted Christmas to be like?
1569
01:02:51,734 --> 01:02:53,700
You know, you can't expect your parents
1570
01:02:53,834 --> 01:02:55,200
to solve a problem
1571
01:02:55,333 --> 01:02:57,166
that they don't even know they have.
1572
01:02:57,300 --> 01:02:59,233
Hmm?
1573
01:03:02,333 --> 01:03:03,166
How's the cake?
1574
01:03:03,300 --> 01:03:04,133
Beginner's luck?
1575
01:03:04,266 --> 01:03:05,626
I don't know. That was pretty good.
1576
01:03:07,367 --> 01:03:10,767
Well, I guess we've got a couple hours
1577
01:03:10,900 --> 01:03:12,667
until we can check on the tree.
1578
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,567
I'm almost afraid to look.
1579
01:03:15,700 --> 01:03:17,233
I'm not.
1580
01:03:17,367 --> 01:03:19,500
I trust you.
1581
01:03:23,433 --> 01:03:24,633
Uh...
1582
01:03:24,767 --> 01:03:25,500
- Oh. - Cake?
1583
01:03:25,633 --> 01:03:27,967
Oh, thank you.
1584
01:03:28,100 --> 01:03:29,867
And one for you.
1585
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:31,300
Thank you.
1586
01:03:34,133 --> 01:03:36,200
Is it wrong that part of me is hoping
1587
01:03:36,333 --> 01:03:38,300
it doesn't work quite yet?
1588
01:03:38,433 --> 01:03:41,033
So she doesn't leave Avon so soon?
1589
01:03:41,166 --> 01:03:43,867
Yes, very wrong.
1590
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:45,567
And I was thinking the exact same thing.
1591
01:03:53,533 --> 01:03:55,233
This looks good. Let's check the others.
1592
01:03:57,433 --> 01:03:58,833
None of the needles have fallen off.
1593
01:04:00,433 --> 01:04:01,433
It worked?
1594
01:04:01,500 --> 01:04:02,500
It worked.
1595
01:04:02,633 --> 01:04:03,734
- It worked! - It worked!
1596
01:04:03,867 --> 01:04:05,767
It worked. It worked!
1597
01:04:09,767 --> 01:04:11,000
Hey.
1598
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:13,033
Yeah!
1599
01:04:17,433 --> 01:04:19,710
Okay, Mr. Mozzicato, you've got the eight-foot tree, right?
1600
01:04:19,734 --> 01:04:20,734
Yes.
1601
01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:23,166
That is this one here for you. There you go.
1602
01:04:23,300 --> 01:04:24,776
Thank you, Jack, and merry Christmas.
1603
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:26,533
Merry Christmas and thank you.
1604
01:04:26,667 --> 01:04:27,976
Are you sure we're going to have enough of these
1605
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:28,767
for the town tree?
1606
01:04:28,900 --> 01:04:30,533
Oh, plenty.
1607
01:04:30,667 --> 01:04:32,033
Perfect. Hi.
1608
01:04:32,166 --> 01:04:33,600
You've got the six-foot tree, right?
1609
01:04:33,734 --> 01:04:34,767
Yes, I knew it.
1610
01:04:34,900 --> 01:04:37,533
Right. Here you go.
1611
01:04:37,667 --> 01:04:39,000
Would you mind covering from here?
1612
01:04:39,133 --> 01:04:40,567
Thank you.
1613
01:04:50,300 --> 01:04:52,600
Good luck, big guy.
1614
01:04:52,734 --> 01:04:53,734
Yeah.
1615
01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:56,800
Okay, fine.
1616
01:04:56,900 --> 01:05:00,266
Yes, I do talk to trees. Happy?
1617
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:01,400
You have no idea.
1618
01:05:04,066 --> 01:05:05,533
Come on. Hop in.
1619
01:05:05,667 --> 01:05:06,867
We've got to put up this tree.
1620
01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:11,934
Up, up, up, up, up.
1621
01:05:12,066 --> 01:05:13,500
Keep going.
1622
01:05:13,633 --> 01:05:15,100
Right about there.
1623
01:05:15,233 --> 01:05:15,967
Perfect. That's it.
1624
01:05:16,100 --> 01:05:18,266
Nice.
1625
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:19,433
All right.
1626
01:05:19,567 --> 01:05:21,033
It looks beautiful. Ah.
1627
01:05:21,166 --> 01:05:23,667
Glad to see it turned out okay, Jack.
1628
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:27,233
Yeah, it turned out better than okay.
1629
01:05:27,367 --> 01:05:29,033
We'll get started decorating.
1630
01:05:29,166 --> 01:05:30,000
Look at you.
1631
01:05:30,133 --> 01:05:31,176
You saved Christmas, Olivia.
1632
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:32,433
I can't thank you enough.
1633
01:05:32,567 --> 01:05:34,734
I should be thanking you.
1634
01:05:34,867 --> 01:05:37,433
For the first time in I don't know how long,
1635
01:05:37,567 --> 01:05:39,767
Christmas isn't something to get through.
1636
01:05:39,900 --> 01:05:41,867
It's something to treasure.
1637
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:43,100
Yeah.
1638
01:05:43,233 --> 01:05:45,633
I just wish I could take this feeling home with me.
1639
01:05:45,767 --> 01:05:48,233
Are you sure you can't stay?
1640
01:05:48,367 --> 01:05:50,066
You saved the tree.
1641
01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:51,943
You should probably be here tomorrow when we light it up.
1642
01:05:51,967 --> 01:05:55,266
I want to, but...
1643
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:57,967
I mean, my parents would never forgive me, so...
1644
01:05:58,100 --> 01:06:01,200
Unless you tell them why you want to stay.
1645
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:05,567
I mean... if you want to stay.
1646
01:06:06,900 --> 01:06:09,133
You know I do.
1647
01:06:09,266 --> 01:06:11,333
For the trees?
1648
01:06:15,433 --> 01:06:17,767
For more than just the trees.
1649
01:06:17,900 --> 01:06:19,734
Then say it.
1650
01:06:19,867 --> 01:06:21,834
It's not that easy for me, Jack.
1651
01:06:23,700 --> 01:06:26,900
We have come too far not to see this through.
1652
01:06:30,066 --> 01:06:32,967
Clearly, I'm... I'm talking about us.
1653
01:06:33,100 --> 01:06:34,467
I'm at UConn, an hour away.
1654
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:36,600
What happens after Christmas?
1655
01:06:36,734 --> 01:06:39,133
I don't know.
1656
01:06:39,266 --> 01:06:43,000
I just know that for the first time in a long time,
1657
01:06:43,133 --> 01:06:45,734
I'm thinking about something else.
1658
01:06:48,266 --> 01:06:50,000
Will this even work?
1659
01:06:50,133 --> 01:06:52,233
We have solved every other problem.
1660
01:06:54,367 --> 01:06:55,800
We'll figure this out too.
1661
01:07:07,266 --> 01:07:09,066
So...
1662
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:10,000
meet you here in the morning?
1663
01:07:10,133 --> 01:07:11,533
It's a date.
1664
01:07:11,667 --> 01:07:12,834
Yeah, it is.
1665
01:07:32,500 --> 01:07:33,233
Hi, Mom.
1666
01:07:33,367 --> 01:07:36,367
Listen, about Christmas Eve.
1667
01:07:36,500 --> 01:07:38,033
I know you want me to come home,
1668
01:07:38,166 --> 01:07:40,533
but I think I'm going to stay here in Avon.
1669
01:07:40,667 --> 01:07:42,800
We're hosting the cocktail hour at the club.
1670
01:07:42,934 --> 01:07:43,667
We have to be there.
1671
01:07:43,800 --> 01:07:44,867
I know you do.
1672
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,567
Olivia, I have told you.
1673
01:07:47,700 --> 01:07:49,567
No one is going to ask you about the wedding
1674
01:07:49,700 --> 01:07:51,900
or about Justin.
1675
01:07:52,033 --> 01:07:53,073
They just want to see you.
1676
01:07:53,100 --> 01:07:55,200
They don't even know me.
1677
01:07:55,333 --> 01:07:57,867
Mom, they only know the version of me
1678
01:07:58,000 --> 01:07:59,233
that you want them to see,
1679
01:07:59,367 --> 01:08:00,533
but I can't do that anymore.
1680
01:08:00,667 --> 01:08:03,200
I don't understand any of this.
1681
01:08:03,333 --> 01:08:05,200
I thought you loved Christmas.
1682
01:08:05,333 --> 01:08:07,400
I do, now.
1683
01:08:07,533 --> 01:08:08,543
Now that I know what it could be.
1684
01:08:08,567 --> 01:08:09,887
Do you care to share what that is?
1685
01:08:09,934 --> 01:08:13,400
Look, I'll be home Christmas morning, and then...
1686
01:08:13,533 --> 01:08:14,266
I'm going to show you.
1687
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:16,633
Will you really come home?
1688
01:08:16,767 --> 01:08:17,600
Or will you just call
1689
01:08:17,734 --> 01:08:18,567
with another reason to stay away?
1690
01:08:18,700 --> 01:08:20,533
I'll really come. I promise.
1691
01:08:20,667 --> 01:08:22,166
We have a lot to talk about.
1692
01:08:23,367 --> 01:08:24,800
Good night, Mom. Love you.
1693
01:08:52,500 --> 01:08:54,266
What?
1694
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:58,533
I don't understand. It was working.
1695
01:08:58,667 --> 01:09:00,567
And I called some of the customers.
1696
01:09:00,700 --> 01:09:01,943
They said that their trees were fine.
1697
01:09:01,967 --> 01:09:03,209
Did we put enough nutrients in here?
1698
01:09:03,233 --> 01:09:06,867
It's the exact same ratio to trunk size as the others.
1699
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:08,367
Wait.
1700
01:09:08,500 --> 01:09:10,209
These needles look different from the other damaged trees.
1701
01:09:10,233 --> 01:09:12,300
They look worse.
1702
01:09:15,467 --> 01:09:17,300
Don't worry, Jack.
1703
01:09:17,433 --> 01:09:19,166
Today's your lucky day.
1704
01:09:19,300 --> 01:09:21,000
I have our tree ready to go.
1705
01:09:21,133 --> 01:09:22,276
It's not your decision, Dwayne.
1706
01:09:22,300 --> 01:09:23,033
It's up to Mayor McGuire.
1707
01:09:23,166 --> 01:09:25,100
Who do you think called me?
1708
01:09:25,233 --> 01:09:27,133
We're cutting down the replacement.
1709
01:09:27,266 --> 01:09:29,467
It'll be here in three hours.
1710
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:32,200
I assume you'll help us out here, right?
1711
01:09:32,333 --> 01:09:34,533
I mean, we're all on the same team.
1712
01:09:34,667 --> 01:09:36,000
Are we?
1713
01:09:36,133 --> 01:09:39,166
Well, you're on the B team now, but, uh, yeah.
1714
01:09:39,300 --> 01:09:44,033
Jack, tree lady, good day.
1715
01:09:46,166 --> 01:09:47,633
You can't let him win.
1716
01:09:47,767 --> 01:09:49,367
It's not about winning anymore.
1717
01:09:49,500 --> 01:09:50,800
It's about Christmas Eve,
1718
01:09:50,934 --> 01:09:53,333
and it's about the entire community,
1719
01:09:53,467 --> 01:09:56,300
and I feel like I've ruined it for everyone.
1720
01:09:56,433 --> 01:09:59,633
Jack...
1721
01:09:59,767 --> 01:10:01,100
I'm so sorry.
1722
01:10:01,233 --> 01:10:03,333
Hey, it's not your fault.
1723
01:10:03,467 --> 01:10:04,700
You did everything you could.
1724
01:10:04,834 --> 01:10:07,800
I'm not giving up on your trees.
1725
01:10:07,934 --> 01:10:10,209
Okay, we have the technology to get to the bottom of this.
1726
01:10:10,233 --> 01:10:12,309
It's just going to take a little longer than we thought.
1727
01:10:12,333 --> 01:10:13,500
In the meantime,
1728
01:10:13,633 --> 01:10:15,533
I can get the entire horticulture team
1729
01:10:15,667 --> 01:10:17,433
to recommend alternative crops.
1730
01:10:17,567 --> 01:10:19,600
I told you I wasn't interested.
1731
01:10:19,734 --> 01:10:21,133
Why would you even bring that up?
1732
01:10:21,266 --> 01:10:22,743
Because it's the best way out of this.
1733
01:10:22,767 --> 01:10:24,600
It's not an option.
1734
01:10:24,734 --> 01:10:25,776
We do Christmas. That's it.
1735
01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:26,800
That's all I care about.
1736
01:10:27,934 --> 01:10:30,033
I see.
1737
01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:33,467
Olivia. Olivia, wait.
1738
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:35,800
You know what I mean.
1739
01:10:35,934 --> 01:10:37,934
I mean, I care about a lot of things.
1740
01:10:38,066 --> 01:10:39,800
I care about you, too.
1741
01:10:39,934 --> 01:10:42,400
This just isn't going to work.
1742
01:10:43,900 --> 01:10:46,266
You told me to say what I was feeling, Jack.
1743
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,800
And I did.
1744
01:10:48,934 --> 01:10:49,934
But the truth is,
1745
01:10:50,066 --> 01:10:52,667
you don't want me to say how I feel...
1746
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,433
just what you want to hear.
1747
01:10:55,567 --> 01:10:58,066
Just like everyone else.
1748
01:10:58,200 --> 01:10:59,767
This isn't about your family,
1749
01:10:59,900 --> 01:11:01,820
and this isn't about your fiancรฉ or anybody else.
1750
01:11:01,900 --> 01:11:03,066
This is about us.
1751
01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:05,400
It's time for me to get back to my life,
1752
01:11:05,533 --> 01:11:08,300
and you to get back to yours.
1753
01:11:12,300 --> 01:11:13,300
So that's it?
1754
01:11:46,233 --> 01:11:47,676
Yeah, I guess we'll just put them in there, Mom.
1755
01:11:47,700 --> 01:11:49,467
- Yeah, mix up the colors. - Yes.
1756
01:11:51,633 --> 01:11:54,800
Mind if we use these for the, uh, the good tree?
1757
01:11:54,934 --> 01:11:57,433
We're all on the same team here, right?
1758
01:11:57,567 --> 01:11:59,834
No? Nothing?
1759
01:11:59,967 --> 01:12:01,000
Excuse me.
1760
01:12:01,133 --> 01:12:02,333
- That's it. - Whoa.
1761
01:12:02,467 --> 01:12:05,433
Don't let him get to you.
1762
01:12:05,567 --> 01:12:08,333
Dwayne's right about one thing.
1763
01:12:08,467 --> 01:12:09,800
It's not about us now.
1764
01:12:09,934 --> 01:12:11,066
It's about Christmas.
1765
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:15,233
In the end, we have to remember what we're celebrating.
1766
01:12:15,367 --> 01:12:17,333
It's about bringing people joy.
1767
01:12:17,467 --> 01:12:20,233
I know. Yeah.
1768
01:12:20,367 --> 01:12:21,767
Where's Olivia?
1769
01:12:21,900 --> 01:12:23,934
She left.
1770
01:12:24,066 --> 01:12:25,066
What?
1771
01:12:33,734 --> 01:12:36,266
Why?
1772
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,266
Because there's nothing else for her to do here,
1773
01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:41,233
and there's no reason for her to stay, Mom.
1774
01:12:41,367 --> 01:12:42,967
You're the reason, Jack.
1775
01:12:43,100 --> 01:12:44,660
Did you tell her how you feel about her?
1776
01:12:44,767 --> 01:12:46,767
Yes, I did, and she told me,
1777
01:12:46,900 --> 01:12:49,266
and then the tree fell apart, and so did everything else.
1778
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:50,133
Why?
1779
01:12:50,266 --> 01:12:52,767
We just don't see eye to eye.
1780
01:12:52,900 --> 01:12:54,066
About what?
1781
01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:57,033
She suggested planting more crops again,
1782
01:12:57,166 --> 01:12:58,233
and I just...
1783
01:13:00,133 --> 01:13:02,133
I didn't respond very well to it.
1784
01:13:02,266 --> 01:13:04,900
I don't understand why you won't consider it.
1785
01:13:05,033 --> 01:13:07,600
Because I promised Dad that I wouldn't change a thing.
1786
01:13:09,967 --> 01:13:12,333
The Connor name is synonymous with Christmas,
1787
01:13:12,467 --> 01:13:16,133
and I don't want to destroy a hundred years of tradition.
1788
01:13:16,266 --> 01:13:19,233
Oh, honey, yes, tradition is important,
1789
01:13:19,367 --> 01:13:20,500
and so is Christmas,
1790
01:13:20,633 --> 01:13:21,843
but you know what the most important thing
1791
01:13:21,867 --> 01:13:23,367
was to your dad? Us.
1792
01:13:23,500 --> 01:13:28,667
You, our community, our friends...
1793
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:30,800
our happiness.
1794
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:34,333
That's the legacy he wanted you to keep.
1795
01:13:36,967 --> 01:13:38,433
It's too late now, Mom. She's gone.
1796
01:13:40,133 --> 01:13:42,066
It's never too late, Jack.
1797
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:45,700
Sometimes you just have to be willing
1798
01:13:45,834 --> 01:13:47,400
to be open to change.
1799
01:14:09,934 --> 01:14:11,467
- Roll the window down. - Okay, I am.
1800
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:15,609
Well, what are you guys doing here?
1801
01:14:15,633 --> 01:14:17,767
Annoying people, apparently.
1802
01:14:17,900 --> 01:14:19,333
You can't stop in traffic.
1803
01:14:19,467 --> 01:14:20,767
I'll meet you at the coffee shop.
1804
01:14:20,900 --> 01:14:22,380
- Coffee shop. - Right in there, yeah.
1805
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:26,810
You guys really didn't need to come up here.
1806
01:14:26,834 --> 01:14:28,233
I was just heading home.
1807
01:14:28,367 --> 01:14:30,076
Do you really think you could drop a bomb on us like that
1808
01:14:30,100 --> 01:14:32,767
and we'd just let it go?
1809
01:14:32,900 --> 01:14:34,533
You have a piece of tree in your hair.
1810
01:14:37,834 --> 01:14:38,600
Yeah.
1811
01:14:38,734 --> 01:14:40,467
Yeah, I know.
1812
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:42,834
I always do.
1813
01:14:42,967 --> 01:14:44,934
Mom, this is who I am.
1814
01:14:45,066 --> 01:14:47,266
I'm a woman who has pine needles in her hair
1815
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:48,409
and dirt under her fingernails,
1816
01:14:48,433 --> 01:14:51,266
and absolutely zero desire
1817
01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:53,600
to get all dressed up for Christmas
1818
01:14:53,734 --> 01:14:55,400
just to stand around and chat with people
1819
01:14:55,533 --> 01:14:57,100
who want me to be somebody I'm not.
1820
01:14:57,233 --> 01:14:59,700
So you don't want to be like us.
1821
01:14:59,834 --> 01:15:00,567
Then what do you want?
1822
01:15:00,700 --> 01:15:02,900
I want to spend the entire day
1823
01:15:03,033 --> 01:15:04,066
in our pajamas.
1824
01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:06,333
I want to make a mess with the wrapping paper.
1825
01:15:06,467 --> 01:15:08,934
I want to bake our own cookies, even though I can't bake,
1826
01:15:09,066 --> 01:15:10,834
and I want to decorate our tree
1827
01:15:10,967 --> 01:15:14,266
with ornaments that mean something to our family.
1828
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:16,100
I don't want it to be
1829
01:15:16,233 --> 01:15:18,500
about other people's perception of us.
1830
01:15:18,633 --> 01:15:20,700
I just want it to be...
1831
01:15:20,834 --> 01:15:21,834
about us.
1832
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:25,076
Maybe we should cancel the party tonight.
1833
01:15:25,100 --> 01:15:26,340
Dad, you don't have to do that.
1834
01:15:26,367 --> 01:15:28,066
You guys love that party.
1835
01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:29,200
Yeah, see?
1836
01:15:29,233 --> 01:15:30,833
Mom doesn't want you to cancel the party.
1837
01:15:30,900 --> 01:15:32,734
I'm sure you guys wish
1838
01:15:32,867 --> 01:15:34,543
that I didn't say anything about any of this.
1839
01:15:34,567 --> 01:15:35,567
It's okay.
1840
01:15:35,700 --> 01:15:37,200
Don't worry about...
1841
01:15:37,333 --> 01:15:38,100
I'll see you at home.
1842
01:15:38,233 --> 01:15:39,233
No, wait.
1843
01:15:41,367 --> 01:15:42,576
Honey, I've never been very good
1844
01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:44,667
about expressing myself.
1845
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,033
I know.
1846
01:15:46,166 --> 01:15:47,533
Runs in the family.
1847
01:15:49,033 --> 01:15:51,400
I'm just so, so sorry, Livvy,
1848
01:15:51,533 --> 01:15:53,667
that I've made you feel anything less
1849
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:56,433
than the strong, brilliant, beautiful woman
1850
01:15:56,567 --> 01:15:58,266
that you've become.
1851
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:01,133
You don't need to change anything.
1852
01:16:01,266 --> 01:16:02,266
I do.
1853
01:16:03,100 --> 01:16:05,433
But this Christmas...
1854
01:16:05,567 --> 01:16:07,800
if you still want to come home?
1855
01:16:07,934 --> 01:16:08,934
Of course I do.
1856
01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:16,834
I wish I'd said all this years ago.
1857
01:16:16,967 --> 01:16:19,433
Why now? What changed?
1858
01:16:20,967 --> 01:16:22,767
Is there something else the matter?
1859
01:16:22,900 --> 01:16:24,233
Yeah.
1860
01:16:24,367 --> 01:16:26,100
Aw.
1861
01:16:29,467 --> 01:16:31,633
Are you sure you don't want to just find him
1862
01:16:31,767 --> 01:16:33,967
and talk to him?
1863
01:16:34,100 --> 01:16:35,834
You guys, I love you so much
1864
01:16:35,967 --> 01:16:38,200
for coming here and for listening,
1865
01:16:38,333 --> 01:16:41,333
but when it comes to Jack...
1866
01:16:43,266 --> 01:16:44,367
I blew it.
1867
01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:49,500
So let's just go home and have our best Christmas ever.
1868
01:16:49,633 --> 01:16:51,400
Okay?
1869
01:16:51,533 --> 01:16:52,853
I can't wait to burn some cookies.
1870
01:16:55,867 --> 01:16:56,867
Love you guys.
1871
01:16:57,767 --> 01:16:58,900
See you in a couple hours.
1872
01:16:59,033 --> 01:16:59,767
Drive carefully.
1873
01:16:59,900 --> 01:17:00,900
Okay.
1874
01:17:10,333 --> 01:17:12,500
Dwayne Colson texted me.
1875
01:17:12,633 --> 01:17:14,176
He wants us to stay here and put up the new tree.
1876
01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:16,367
We already did our job, right?
1877
01:17:16,500 --> 01:17:18,233
Ignore that. Did you...
1878
01:17:18,367 --> 01:17:19,800
No. We should probably do that.
1879
01:17:19,934 --> 01:17:21,294
Yeah, we should probably do that.
1880
01:17:21,367 --> 01:17:25,200
Hey, you guys work with Dwayne?
1881
01:17:25,333 --> 01:17:27,967
Yeah.
1882
01:17:28,100 --> 01:17:28,834
You know him?
1883
01:17:28,967 --> 01:17:29,967
Yeah, we go way back.
1884
01:17:30,100 --> 01:17:33,233
Tell him congratulations on the town tree.
1885
01:17:33,367 --> 01:17:34,867
I mean, I feel bad for the Connors,
1886
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,066
but hey, nature's going to do
1887
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:38,409
what nature's going to do, right?
1888
01:17:38,433 --> 01:17:39,600
Yeah, nature.
1889
01:17:41,367 --> 01:17:42,667
Uh, selfie?
1890
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:43,633
Yeah.
1891
01:17:43,767 --> 01:17:44,943
- All right. - Where do you want us?
1892
01:17:44,967 --> 01:17:46,367
Yeah, yeah, right there is perfect.
1893
01:17:46,500 --> 01:17:47,233
Yeah, just a little bit...
1894
01:17:47,367 --> 01:17:49,266
Yeah. Say "Christmas tree."
1895
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:50,400
Christmas tree!
1896
01:17:53,500 --> 01:17:54,934
Hey, this is Jack.
1897
01:17:55,066 --> 01:17:56,100
Leave a message.
1898
01:17:56,233 --> 01:17:57,266
Jack, it's me.
1899
01:17:57,400 --> 01:17:59,834
Dwayne sabotaged the tree with weed killer overnight.
1900
01:17:59,967 --> 01:18:01,209
Meet me at the tree when you can.
1901
01:18:01,233 --> 01:18:03,100
Excuse me!
1902
01:18:03,233 --> 01:18:04,533
What's her problem?
1903
01:18:06,533 --> 01:18:07,934
Stop! Don't take it down.
1904
01:18:08,066 --> 01:18:09,567
This tree is going to be just fine.
1905
01:18:09,700 --> 01:18:11,500
I know you did your best, Olivia,
1906
01:18:11,633 --> 01:18:13,176
but the same thing happening to this tree
1907
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:14,600
as all the rest of them.
1908
01:18:14,734 --> 01:18:15,810
By tonight, most of these needles
1909
01:18:15,834 --> 01:18:16,943
are going to be on the ground.
1910
01:18:16,967 --> 01:18:18,567
No, this is not like the other trees.
1911
01:18:18,700 --> 01:18:20,734
I'm sorry, but I can't take that chance.
1912
01:18:20,867 --> 01:18:21,934
Dwayne Colson...
1913
01:18:22,066 --> 01:18:24,133
Dwayne Colson sprayed this tree with weed killer
1914
01:18:24,266 --> 01:18:26,600
so it would look like it was dying.
1915
01:18:26,734 --> 01:18:29,467
Every branch it touched looks like that.
1916
01:18:31,433 --> 01:18:32,433
Dwayne?
1917
01:18:32,567 --> 01:18:35,400
I don't know what tree lady's talking about.
1918
01:18:35,533 --> 01:18:37,233
She's just embarrassed because she failed.
1919
01:18:37,367 --> 01:18:39,867
Yeah, well, these guys tell a different story.
1920
01:18:44,367 --> 01:18:46,000
She got you, Dwayne.
1921
01:18:46,133 --> 01:18:47,743
You just couldn't help yourself, could you?
1922
01:18:47,767 --> 01:18:50,934
Your mother always cheated at Hearts.
1923
01:18:51,066 --> 01:18:52,400
Oh...
1924
01:18:52,533 --> 01:18:55,967
I'm not surprised the acorn didn't fall far from the tree.
1925
01:18:56,100 --> 01:18:57,100
Good job, Mom.
1926
01:18:57,166 --> 01:18:58,667
Think what you want,
1927
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:00,033
but there's nothing you can do
1928
01:19:00,166 --> 01:19:02,633
about the needles that have already dropped.
1929
01:19:02,767 --> 01:19:06,166
You know, is this the type of tree you want
1930
01:19:06,300 --> 01:19:07,734
on the most important Christmas Eve
1931
01:19:07,867 --> 01:19:09,467
Avon's ever had?
1932
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:11,967
This is what you want people to remember us by?
1933
01:19:12,100 --> 01:19:14,433
I'd rather have no tree...
1934
01:19:15,667 --> 01:19:16,667
than one from you.
1935
01:19:18,834 --> 01:19:20,100
Miles.
1936
01:19:22,133 --> 01:19:22,867
Really?
1937
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:24,300
You called the cops?
1938
01:19:24,433 --> 01:19:25,967
Let's go down to the station
1939
01:19:26,100 --> 01:19:27,800
and talk about Avon's vandalism law.
1940
01:19:27,934 --> 01:19:29,834
Good day, sir.
1941
01:19:29,967 --> 01:19:30,967
Tree lady...
1942
01:19:33,133 --> 01:19:34,133
Well played.
1943
01:19:36,233 --> 01:19:37,600
I hate to say it,
1944
01:19:37,734 --> 01:19:39,767
but Dwayne is right about one thing.
1945
01:19:39,900 --> 01:19:41,533
This tree does not look great...
1946
01:19:41,667 --> 01:19:43,200
and that's being generous.
1947
01:19:43,333 --> 01:19:45,900
I mean, it might not look perfect,
1948
01:19:46,033 --> 01:19:48,934
but, I mean, the story behind it is great.
1949
01:19:49,066 --> 01:19:50,576
I think the media's going to eat it up.
1950
01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:51,934
You think?
1951
01:19:52,066 --> 01:19:53,166
Are you kidding?
1952
01:19:53,300 --> 01:19:56,567
There's a hero and a villain and a love story.
1953
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,133
Maybe it can be like that story you told me,
1954
01:20:01,266 --> 01:20:03,667
about the very first year of the tradition.
1955
01:20:03,800 --> 01:20:07,333
Everyone from town can bring something.
1956
01:20:07,467 --> 01:20:09,433
It can be everyone's tree again...
1957
01:20:09,567 --> 01:20:11,367
just a hundred years later.
1958
01:20:11,500 --> 01:20:14,800
I think that's a great idea.
1959
01:20:14,934 --> 01:20:15,800
I guess they don't call you
1960
01:20:15,934 --> 01:20:17,076
the Christmas Tree Whisperer for nothing.
1961
01:20:17,100 --> 01:20:20,100
Actually, she doesn't like to be called that.
1962
01:20:20,233 --> 01:20:23,633
Um, it's... it's okay.
1963
01:20:23,767 --> 01:20:24,967
I kind of like it.
1964
01:20:27,867 --> 01:20:28,867
Oh.
1965
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:30,700
Actually, she kind of likes it now.
1966
01:20:34,433 --> 01:20:36,309
I feel like I have so many things I want to say to you.
1967
01:20:36,333 --> 01:20:37,467
Me too.
1968
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:39,133
Tree now.
1969
01:20:39,266 --> 01:20:40,367
Talk later.
1970
01:20:40,500 --> 01:20:43,100
You two have plenty of time.
1971
01:21:09,233 --> 01:21:11,300
Oh, I'm so glad you made it.
1972
01:21:11,433 --> 01:21:12,433
Yeah.
1973
01:21:13,667 --> 01:21:15,267
I'm sorry if it meant missing that party.
1974
01:21:15,300 --> 01:21:16,667
Oh, that doesn't matter anymore.
1975
01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:19,000
We just wanted to see for ourselves
1976
01:21:19,133 --> 01:21:21,233
what you love about Christmas...
1977
01:21:21,367 --> 01:21:23,934
and you're wearing the coat that I love.
1978
01:21:24,066 --> 01:21:25,266
I know.
1979
01:21:29,667 --> 01:21:31,600
Oh, um, hang on.
1980
01:21:31,734 --> 01:21:33,667
Okay.
1981
01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:36,066
Mom, Dad, this is Jack.
1982
01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:37,934
Mrs. Arden. Mr. Arden.
1983
01:21:38,066 --> 01:21:38,867
- Lovely to meet you. - Lovely to meet you too.
1984
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:39,800
It's such a pleasure.
1985
01:21:39,934 --> 01:21:41,767
You have an incredible daughter.
1986
01:21:41,900 --> 01:21:44,734
Oh, we know.
1987
01:21:44,867 --> 01:21:47,967
Pine needles in her hair, exactly as it should be.
1988
01:21:48,100 --> 01:21:48,800
Yeah.
1989
01:21:48,934 --> 01:21:51,400
Is that a cider cart?
1990
01:21:51,533 --> 01:21:52,734
Yeah.
1991
01:21:52,867 --> 01:21:56,200
Oh. Oh, yes. Good idea.
1992
01:21:58,800 --> 01:21:59,667
Your parents seem really nice.
1993
01:21:59,800 --> 01:22:00,600
I don't know.
1994
01:22:00,734 --> 01:22:02,400
I was picturing something flashier.
1995
01:22:02,533 --> 01:22:06,266
Yeah, actually, I was... I was wrong about them.
1996
01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:08,000
I was wrong about a lot of things,
1997
01:22:08,133 --> 01:22:09,166
including telling you
1998
01:22:09,300 --> 01:22:10,700
to change the way you run your farm.
1999
01:22:10,834 --> 01:22:12,000
You were right about that.
2000
01:22:12,133 --> 01:22:13,433
I want to expand the crops.
2001
01:22:13,567 --> 01:22:15,300
But I thought
2002
01:22:15,433 --> 01:22:17,767
Christmas is the only thing you care about.
2003
01:22:17,900 --> 01:22:19,500
It was, until I met you.
2004
01:22:19,633 --> 01:22:22,834
Look, you were just trying to tell me how you felt,
2005
01:22:22,967 --> 01:22:26,300
and I wasn't listening, and I am so sorry.
2006
01:22:26,433 --> 01:22:27,300
That's the thing.
2007
01:22:27,433 --> 01:22:29,900
I told you how I felt about your crops...
2008
01:22:30,033 --> 01:22:33,300
not about you.
2009
01:22:33,433 --> 01:22:36,600
Well, now's your chance.
2010
01:22:38,734 --> 01:22:41,233
Well, in this particular situation,
2011
01:22:41,367 --> 01:22:43,967
I think it might be better if I just show you.
2012
01:22:44,100 --> 01:22:45,100
Okay.
2013
01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:52,200
That was well said.
2014
01:22:52,934 --> 01:22:55,033
Hey...
2015
01:22:55,166 --> 01:22:56,633
would you two like to...
2016
01:22:56,767 --> 01:22:58,700
You guys want to push the button?
2017
01:22:58,834 --> 01:22:59,700
They're busy.
2018
01:22:59,834 --> 01:23:00,567
We got this.
2019
01:23:00,700 --> 01:23:05,133
In ten, nine, eight, seven,
2020
01:23:05,266 --> 01:23:08,400
six, five, four,
2021
01:23:08,533 --> 01:23:11,400
three, two, one!
2022
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000
