* It's that time of year

* When Santa comes
to bring that cheer *

* He ain't comin'
by boat or plane *

* He's loaded down
with candy canes *

* I only hope he keeps
one open seat *

* Oh yeah

* Come on Santa,
bring those toys *

Sorry! Ooh, sorry!

* For the girls and boys
Come on, Santa *

Sorry!

Okay.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Hmm.

* Let's hope
the weather's good *

Ugh!

Oh, sorry!

* But this year
he's gonna use the door *

Sorry!

* Come on, Santa

Whoop!

Ah!

* The only thing I need
Come on, Santa *

* Is my baby on Christmas Eve

Come on, Santa!

Ugh!

* I wrote a letter
and tried to explain *

* I sent it Santa Mail
on a North Pole train *

Thank you very much.

* It wasn't a list,
the only thing it said was *

* She's about this tall
And her lips are ruby red *

* She doesn't take much room

* It's just one seat

Lucy!

Oh, he came!

When you asked me to bring
your delivery to work,

you didn't think to mention
it was a life-sized Santa?

And ruin the surprise?

He's gonna help us win
best decorated office this year.

You know, I don't love
dragging a fully grown man

around the streets,
even if it is Santa.

Well, thank you.
I appreciate it.

Oh, he is just perfect.

Okay, what do you think?

Does he look happy by the door
or should I move him?

- Juliet? This is important.
- Hm?

How does he look?

Who, Santa?
He looks like Santa.

I just have to write this e-mail.

We can't let Gerald
from accounting win again.

So, take these decorations
and help me out.

No, no, no, I can't.
I have a meeting with marketing

in 10 minutes about
our new yoga mats.

Well, you better be fast!

Okay.

So, uh, where did you disappear
to so early this morning?

Oh, breakfast with Felix,

the guy I met at Christmas
trivia last week.

- A second date?
- Mm-hmm.

You and I are both gonna spend
Christmas with someone special this year.

Uh yeah, I'm gonna tell you
something,

but I really don't want you
to freak out.

No words of consolation,
no sad eyes.

You're doing it already
and I haven't even said anything yet.

You broke it off
with Lewis, didn't you?

- No, no, I didn't break it off.
- Oh, good!

I just evolved right out
of the relationship.

- I grew and moved through it--
- And you broke up with him.

Yeah, I broke up with him,
but it was for the best.

We had nothing in common.

I had put together
a spreadsheet and-- - No, you didn't.

Yes, of course, I did.
And it was clear on paper that

we were just headed
in different directions.

Okay. Well, who are you gonna
spend Christmas with this year?

I don't know.

Mom and Dad are
taking a cruise, so...

Spend it with me and my family?

Oh, my parents only live
an hour away.

We'll make it fun.

We'll make a road trip
out of it.

You can sleep on the floor
of my childhood bedroom.

Oh, please say yes!

- Yes. Thank you.
- Oh!

- You're the best.
- Aw!

- Okay, now keep working.
- But I have five minutes.

Okay. Can you put
a gold one on the top?

You're directing me?
I'm trying to help you.

We're trying to win
first place. First place!

We wanna win, we wanna win.

I'll go ask reception
for more tinsel.

I love what
you've done, but do you have

- any spare gold tinsel?
- Um...

Hilda! I thought you left
for Palm Springs already.

Change of plans.

I've been on the phone
with the board.

Talking them down off a cliff.

Do you have a moment?

Yes.

No! No.

Sorry, uh, Lucy went
a little overboard.

I will move him.

So, you were saying
the board's in a panic?

To put it mildly.

Sales are down 15%
from last year.

Oh, well, that is worrying.
Although,

the landscape has changed.

We were the first
direct-to-consumer wellness and lifestyle brand

and now, the market's crowded.
It makes sense sales are down.

But the board wants a new
strategy to increase sales.

Not a post-mortem.

Did you tell them all
the strategies we have in place?

All the strategies that
aren't working? Of course not.

- Of course not.
- But I did tell them

about a new product drop coming
before Christmas,

designed to drive traffic to
the website and increase sales.

I don't know anything
about that. What is it?

That's up to you.

I don't follow.

There is no product. Yet.

- That's where you come in.
- Come in and do what exactly?

To develop a small product
drop before Christmas.

Wait, wait... this Christmas?

Like the Christmas that's in
two weeks from now?

'Cause normally,
it takes months, even years

to develop a p... product.

It's not
a full-product launch,

it's just a very small,
one-off drop.

That's still a lot of work.

We need to create
a scarcity mindset.

Now, they'll probably find
the product sold out,

but while they're on our site,

they will find something else
that they need.

Do you wanna take notes?
Because this is marketing gold I'm giving you.

Yes, um, so, a new,
highly sought after-product by Christmas.

Something that oozes luxury.

Something people have
not seen before.

Okay. I uh...

- This won't be easy.
- Hmm.

But if you can pull it off,
the Senior VP job will be yours.

Wow! Okay.

You can... you can count on me.

- Great.
- Yeah.

I will see you at 5:00
for your pitch.

- 5 p.m. today?
- That's right.

Oh.

I like him there.

He looks happy.

Mm...

* Merry Christmas, baby

* Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year *

Okay.

Ugh!

* Merry Christmas, baby

* Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year *

Ugh!

* And when you tell me
that you love me **

How's the brainstorm...ing?

Oh, what do you need?
Tea? Green juice?

Something very deep-fried?

How am I supposed to come up
with a pitch by 5 p.m. today?

I-I-I gotta get outta here.
I can't think in here.

I'll be back at 5:00.
Wish me luck!

Uh, where are you going?

To get inspired.

Hmm.

This one was a long time
in the making.

I took years to perfect
the balance of scents.

Wow, I had no idea
candle making was such a science.

Oh, yeah, it really is.

Here, that's leather,
cardamom, and sandalwood.

That's beautiful.

It's our most iconic candle.

Oh, that smells like
e Château des Fleurs in Paris. l

It should. It was made
especially for that hotel.

Unbelievable, I recognized it!

That was... 10 years ago.

Not that hard to believe,
actually.

Scent is an incredibly powerful
trigger for memory,

and unlike our other sense,

it travels directly to the part
of our brain

that activates emotions.

Oh!

Oh. Oh, easy. Easy there.

Uh... oh, my goodness.

I am so sorry.

Uh, are you all right?

Yes! I-I'm fine,
I'm just a little embarrassed.

Uh, I will pay for any damage.

Uh, it doesn't look like
anything's broken, just a mess.

Easily fixed.

Can I help you with anything?
Did you wanna buy "Dreamy Eyes"?

What did you call me?

Not you, the... the candle.

It's, um...

it's called Dreamy Eyes.

Oh.

The candle's called Dreamy Eyes.

When I thought I couldn't get
more embarrassed. Um...

no, I should go.
But thank you.

And I'm really sorry.
But thank you.

And uh, I'm... I'm very sorry.
But thank you.

And thank you.
Uh, thank you!

You're late.

You missed the staff
Christmas treat.

Sorry. I got lost in time.

That's all right.
I got you one.

Oh.

It smells just like Christmas.

Which leads me to my pitch.

Scented candles.

I'm not talking about
ordinary candles.

- I wanna make memory candles.
- I'm listening.

All right, so today, I was
feeling really stressed out,

like a lot of our customers do
every day, and I wandered into

this candle store and I found
a candle that smelt

just like my grandma Minnie's
house on Christmas morning.

Took me straight back.

I could feel my grandma's kiss
on my cheek and...

and smell her perfume mingled
with dinner cooking in the oven.

It was all the love and joy
of that morning

just came rushing back.

Changed my whole day.

That sounds like
quite a candle.

I wanna make chic, beautifully
packaged memory scent candles,

giving our customers the gift of
a joyful Christmas memory.

I like it. Original. Quirky.

But how will these candles be
exclusive? A must-have item?

Well, I found
this incredible candlemaker

and his brand with
the Goodwell could be

an amazing collaboration.

Hmm.

You have one week to put
a sample pack together.

If I like what I see,
we'll start the marketing campaign

and launch a small batch
a week later.

If website traffic increases,
the position is yours.

We'll increase traffic.

Well, that sounds perfect,
then.

Oh, one last thing.

Who is this mysterious
artisan candlemaker?

You'll have to wait and see!

-Hey, Tom!
- Daddy!

Hey! How was
the Christmas market?

We bought so much candy.

- Maya.
- What? I am the fun aunt.

It is my job.
Hmm.

- How's your day been?
- Slow.

- Any sales?
- A couple.

When Catherine and I
first opened, we'd be out of stock by mid-December.

Well, maybe everyone's putting
off their Christmas shopping.

I know I am.

As a matter of fact, Olive and I
are gonna head out now.

Oh, before you do, Olive,

do you wanna pick a candle
for Mom this year?

- Yeah.
- Okay, off you go.

This one because
when I smell it,

it makes me remember my mom.

It's perfect.

- Come on, kiddo.
- Okay.

- See you later.
- Bye. - Bye, Dad.

So, tomorrow, I'm
going back to the candle store

to make the candle guy
a proposal.

- Is he hot?
- Lucy.

What? He's a candle guy,
so he's gotta be hot.

Like a burning flame with
smouldering good looks.

- See what I did there?
- Can we stay on topic?

And it's Christmas.

Anything is possible
at Christmas.

Great! How about launching
a brand new product

to help drive traffic to
the website? Is that possible?

- I don't know about that.
- Stop it.

I'm kidding!

You're the most organized,
efficient,

hard-working person I know.

So, if anyone can do it,
you can. - Thank you.

I just need to work around
the clock. And I need the candle guy to say yes.

A big corporation is taking
his candles to the world.

Of course he'll say yes.

No.

No?

Yeah, no.

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

I mean, it's an original idea,

I'm just not interested
in a collaboration.

Oh, so you like the idea,
but you're not interested.

Well, two things can be
true at the same time.

Wa... wait.

Wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait!

Hi, again.

I don't mean to pry, but most
small business owners

dream of an opportunity
like this.

- Not me.
- Can I ask why?

- Do you want me to be honest?
- Of course.

I don't think
your idea's doable

and I'm really not interested in
cheap, mass-produced gimmicks.

Uh, "cheap gimmicks"?
No, no, no, no.

This would be a small,
exclusive drop.

I didn't mean to offend you
and I appreciate your offer,

but I need to protect
my brand's integrity.

Right. 'Cause creating
candles with me

would taint your brand
and damage your integrity.

No, that came out wrong.
I...

It's just not for me.
I'm sorry.

All right.

Lucy said you met
with the candlemaker.

Yes, that is exactly what
I was doing. Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Did you give him the contract?

Um...

Not... not quite yet.

I'm... I'm working on it.

Better get moving.
Time is of the essence.

Yeah.

He's arrogant, and pretentious,

and opinionated,
and self-absorbed.

He's also like, really tall.

Do you know how
annoying that is?

So then, kick him to the curb

and find a new supplier.
Solved.

But I've done my research.
His candles can be seen

in boutique hotels
and style magazines.

His brand is just what we need.

But you know
so many influencers.

Why don't you just find
a new style icon?

'Cause he's more
than just a brand.

His candles are... incredible.

I can't explain it.

All I know is
an ordinary candlemaker

can't recreate these complex
nuanced scents like he can.

So, how are you gonna
change this new, cool,

extraordinary
candlemaker's mind?

I'm not.

He made it pretty clear
he wants

nothing to do with me.

I'm just gonna have to come up
with a better idea, and fast.

Mm-hmm. Before you do that,

can you make this bow for me?

Thank you!

- I hear you.
- Mm-hmm?

Yeah, yeah.

I'm totally listening.

- Are you?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay.

Where'd the star disappear to?

- Uh, to the end of the table.
- Oh.

Who's Juliet Sweeney?

No idea.

Oh, uh, she stopped by
the store today

and asked me to collaborate
with her company, the Goodwell.

The Goodwell are huge!

That's amazing! Congratulations!

Yeah, I'm not doing it.

What? Why not?
You said things were slow.

They are, but business
will pick up. - And if it doesn't?

Look, I'm not partnering
with another company again.

Not after last time.

- Well, that was different.
- No, it's the same.

They offered me a bunch of money
to collaborate,

ripped me off, and left
the business in tatters.

Well, that last part hasn't
happened this time.

Yeah, yet.

- Oh, Mom's calling.
- Oh, put it on speaker.

Hi, Mom.
I'm here with Maya.

- : Hi!
- Hello, my darlings.

How are Christmas
preparations coming?

Well, we're just decorating
the tree right now.

It'll look like
a winter wonderland in here

by the time you arrive.

Mom, you still there?

I... I'm sorry, I'm just
a little overwhelmed.

I've got a lot of folks
down there

packing family charity boxes.

200 down!

2,000 to go.

The truth is,
we lost our major donor.

Things are very tight.

I can't hire more helpers
without a donor.

And if I don't lend a hand,

we're not going to get
the family boxes out in time for Christmas.

You didn't tell us
you lost a donor.

Well, I was hoping
to find one quickly,

but it... it didn't
work out that way.

Which is... is why I called.

I... I'm so sorry, but I'm not
going to be able to make it

to see you at Christmas.

Oh no, Mom. Really?

I... I don't know how
I can leave.

I've got people working
around the clock.

I mean, this is my charity.

II've run it for 20 years

and I hope to run it
for another 20.

I need to be here.

Of course you do.

We'll miss you, that's all.

Well, we can videoconference

all day long.

That way, I won't miss a thing.

It'll be like
I'm right there with you.

Now, can you please get
my beautiful granddaughter

- so I can tell her?
- Oh, it's okay, Mom.

he's at a friend's for dinner.S
But I'll tell her.

Just um... you get back to it,
okay? Love you.

Love you!
Bye!

You can put the star on.

You're taller.

I don't understand!

Does she not wanna see me?

Oh, of course, she does.

Then, what is it?

Well, it's... it's kind
of hard to explain.

It's grown-up stuff.

I hate grown-up stuff.

But Grandma loves you.

And so do Maya and I,

and we're gonna make sure you
have the best Christmas ever.

Okay?

'Kay, Dad.

Okay.

It's time for sleep now, kiddo.

Night.

Night, Dad.

Night, sweetie.

Bring Grandma here
for Christmas.

How'd she take it?

Uh, she'll be okay.
You know, kids are flexible.

Are those my accounts?

They were just
sitting on the table.

- Maya!
- You said things were a little slow.

They are a little slow.

It's worse than that
and you know it!

You can't just put
your head in the sand.

I'm not putting my head
in the sand,

I am focusing on
what I'm good at,

which is making
beautiful candles, okay?

The rest will just work
itself out.

No, it won't.

You need to work it out,
with the Goodwell.

I need an update on
the candle project.

Yes, uh, for sure. Of course.

Um, great news, actually.

The project has evolved into
something different, better.

Instead of candles, uh...

I greenlit candles.

Why are you moving in
a different direction?

Uh, well, the truth is...

the candle supplier is...

Right here.

Uh, Hilda, this is...

Tom Turner.
Tom Turner.

Pleased to meet you, Tom.
I'm Hilda Holstein.

I'm the CEO and founder
of the Goodwell.

Juliet and I were just
about to go over

some preliminary numbers
if you'd like to join us?

Budgets already?

Ugh. Supplier issue.

I gotta go.
We'll talk tomorrow.

- Tom.
- Absolutely!

Nice Santa.

Thank you. Yeah,
he's a real asset.

Do you have time to talk?

Sure.

Look, the truth is, it's hard
for me to trust a company

that got rich selling
detoxes and crystals

- to vulnerable people.
- You make us sound

- like a bunch of criminals.
- No, not at all.

I mean, none of it
is technically illegal,

just immoral and...

All right, just stop.

Did you just call me out
of a meeting just to trash me and my company again?

No, I came because I realized

that my business needs
rejuvenation

and I should take a risk.

With you.

So, you want to work together?

Well, I don't know if "want"
is the right word,

but I think I need to.

And what makes you think that
I still wanna invest in you

when you think so little of me
and my company?

I have a feeling you think
me and my candles are worth it.

What do you say? We got a deal?

I'll send you the contract.

Deal.

Thank you.
And have a merry Christmas.

So? How did it go?

You're looking at
the new Goodwell collaborator.

Good for you!

I feel I'm gonna be sick
to my stomach.

Oh, come on,
it's not that bad.

The Goodwell has
a great reputation. - Mm-hmm.

It's sustainable, high end.

Or maybe just think
about the money.

It's a great opportunity
for the business.

We'll see.

Is there a line of
candlemakers in your family?

-Uh...
- I bet your candles are woodsy.

Yeah, some of them.

How long does it take
to make a candle?

Oh, Juliet!

Your candlemaker's here.

You can just call me Tom.

Sure, candlemaker Tom.

Okay, thank you, Lucy.

I'll let you know if
we need anything else.

Mm-hmm.

- Morning.
- Oh, is it still morning? I've been here for hours.

Yeah, it's 10 a.m.

I like to start at
8:00 at the latest.

Ah.

- Shall we get started?
- Sure!

Great! I'd like to begin
by telling you a little bit

about the Goodwell, just
to dispel any misconceptions

or preconceived ideas
you might have.

Is that really necessary?

I'm not sure I need to know
all the ins and outs.

The Goodwell
was founded in 1992

by our visionary CEO,
Hilda Holstein.

It was the first
direct-to-consumer wellness and lifestyle brand.

The Goodwell was
the first company of its kind

to harness the power
of social media.

And today we are
the second-largest wellness company in the marketplace.

Any questions?

- Tom?
- Hmm? Yep.

Questions?

Yeah, can we get outta here?

I think this lighting
is dulling my senses.

Uh, no, not... not yet.

I can call in some lunch

or get some coffee,
tea, activated water. That--

I need some air.
I'll be back soon.

Wait, Tom, where are you...

where are you going? Wait.

Wait!

Tom, wait!

Tom, wait!

You can't just storm out
of a meeting!

I didn't storm, I strolled.

I was in the middle
of a presentation.

Look, if we're gonna work
together,

we need to communicate
clearly

and respect each other's time.

We also need to work
in a space where we can be creative.

- Not in there.
- In there, meaning my office.

Yeah, how do you think
in that place?

- Are you serious?
- Yeah, I am.

Look, you want me to make
something special and beautiful,

then we need to be in
an inspirational space

- for it to come to life.
- Like where?

Why not my shop?

No! I need to be
in the office.

Look, it's not just
about creating beauty,

it's about crunching numbers
and understanding customers

and those things are important!

Okay, what if we split
our time?

We can finish today
at your office and then,

tomorrow, we're on my turf.

Fine.

Oh.

Christmas is a time for giving.

Wow, that's very generous.

Don't sound so surprised.

Come on.

Well, here are some designs
our team have come up with.

Do you have any others?

You don't like these?

Uh... not really.

That's surprising. Our design
team is award-winning.

I just see this kinda thing
everywhere.

It's overdone.

You said you wanted to do
something different and special.

I'll ask for more options.

Oh, um, I put together a list
of names for our candle range.

Hit me.

Remember Candles.

Memory Lights.

- No.
- All right,

just try to keep an open mind.

- Memory Flame.
- Oof.

Memory Journey.

Ooh, hard pass.

Okay, do you have anything
constructive to contribute?

Because being a critic is easy,

but actually coming up with
the ideas is a little hard, so--

What about...
Memories by Pure?

Because they're memories
and they're pure.

You like it. Admit it.

Sh... I don't,
I don't, I don't mind it.

I can come up with
a few more if you'd like.

No, no, no,
we don't have time.

So, let's just go with
Memories by Pure.

- Okay.
- And uh, we'll move on.

- Sure.
- 'Cause it's... it's fine, you know.

Okay.

Yep, so good work
for both of us.

Okay.

How do you think
it went today? - I give us a 5 out of 10.

- Ouch.
- I was hoping to make a little more progress.

Well, the creative process
takes as long as it takes.

No, actually, in this case,
it takes one week or less.

- Roger that.
- I'll see you tomorrow.

Bright and early.

- Smells like romance.
- Stop it.

Okay.

- Morning!
- Oh!

Hmm... what is this?

- Green juice.
- Yes, I can see that it's green.

Why would you drink it?

It strengthens your
immune system,

controls inflammation,
increases red blood cell production.

Tastes like lawn clippings.

Okay.

Here are some spreadsheets
that I put together.

We need to quickly come up
with a list of candle names,

- scents, colours, ingredients.
- We don't need that.

Making candles is not about
filling out a spreadsheet.

This is a tried-and-true
product development method.

It helps streamline the process
and makes things super efficient.

Making candles
is an exploration, okay?

We need to take the long
and winding road

to get to where we need to go.

I can't tell if you're joking.

I mean, I really hope
you're j...

Are you joking?

I've never been more serious.

All right, we don't have time
to take the scenic route.

We are on a tight schedule
and I'm looking for a shortcut.

There are no shortcuts.

Come on, I'll show you.

And you can leave
the spreadsheets behind.

- Not what you were expecting?
- Not at all.

All I can see and smell
is Christmas.

Oh, and taste.

Mm! This gingerbread's
delicious.

Uh-huh...

Now, all of our senses
are loaded with Christmas.

We can begin.

Begin what exactly?

Exploring all of the scents

and seeing what combinations
we wanna work with.

You're probably not gonna need those spreadsheets.

So what, I'm just
flying blind then?

Not exactly.

I know the way.

I can't believe
how many ideas, memories,

and emotions came flooding back

about Christmas while
we were brainstorming.

Yeah, I find stimulating
all the senses really helps

trigger ideas and creativity.

Being able to smell,
taste, and touch,

it was all pretty incredible.

And we didn't even
need the spreadsheet.

Although, I will be going back
to the office

and putting this all down
into a document.

Okay. But first, some lunch?

Okay, where do you
wanna order from?

Oh.

I made us some sandwiches.

- Oh.
- Let's go.

I've only known you a few days,

but you really love the outside.

Yeah, well, outside is
where I get my inspiration.

I mean... smell that?

Roasting chestnuts?

Little cedar
and a little balsam.

I mean, there are ideas
everywhere.

All right, let's get this out.

- You've prepared it all.
- Yep.

We have turkey and cranberry
on sourdough.

Mm. This bread is delicious.

- I made it myself.
- Mm-hmm?

Took a little while
to perfect.

I got a sourdough starter
from my neighbour.

- Uh-huh.
- You know what? It... never mind.

I...

Look, my sister banned me from
talking about breadmaking.

She said she had to listen to me
drone on for 10 years

about candle making,

so breadmaking is where
she draws the line.

Wow, you must really
love making things.

Yeah, I do.

You know, the... the art
and the science, the...

the what and the how of it.

- You like making things?
- Um, no.

No, I'm universally terrible at making anything.

Oh, I'm sure that's not true.

Well, I guess I'm good
at making decisions?

And appointments.

Well I'm... terrible
at making appointments.

So, maybe together,
we'll make a great team.

Maybe.

Cheers!

That's better. Nice and toasty.

-Daddy! Daddy!
- Oh, hey pumpkin!

- How was school?
- Great! We made Christmas cards.

Oh, great!

I'm Olive and I'm eight.

Hi, Olive. I'm Juliet.
Nice to meet you!

We won't be here long.
We just popped in for some art supplies

for the ornament
decorating workshop.

Oh. Go grab whatever you need.

Ornament decorating
sounds fun.

25 eight-year-olds fighting
over a single glue gun.

It'll be something!

He's terrible
at introductions.

Hi, I'm Maya, Tom's sister.

- You must be Juliet.
- Nice to meet you.

I hope Tom isn't
boring you too much

with the science of
candle making.

Hey. Candle making is
very interesting.

Wait till he starts in
on breadmaking.

Too late.

Will you guys stop talking

about me like I'm not here?

-I'm ready!
- That is my cue.

Juliet, it was lovely
to meet you.

Tom, I'll see you later.
All right.

Have fun.

You got a cute kid.

It seems like a pretty
great sister, too.

Yeah, I'm lucky.

Maya helps out with
Olive all the time.

I don't know how other
single parents do it.

Yeah, must be a lot.

- Do you have any kids?
- No.

One day.

We should get back to work.

Sure.

So, what do you think?

I'm going to a costume party
with Felix tonight.

Oh, I think you make
a perfect Mrs. Claus.

I wanted to say I'm fun,
I'm easygoing,

I don't take life too seriously,

but also, I'm looking for
something very serious

and you might be my soulmate.

I don't think a costume
could say all that.

I feel like I could
fall in love tonight.

It's your third date.

Love can happen on
the third date if you let it.

Especially during Christmas.

Which is why you need to keep
an open mind

about Hot Candle Guy.

His name is Tom
and we're working together.

Nothing else is going on at all.

Mm-hmm.

You don't know how
this could end...

Yes, I do.

In a successful project
and promotion,

and that is all
I care about right now.

Fine.

But be honest with me.

- This is hot, right?
- Yeah, it's great.

I love the glasses.

- Very authentic.
- Thank you.

My granny gave them to me.

And she's blind as a bat.

- Oh. Can you see?
- Not even a little.

Oh.

- Did I do it right?
- Sure did. Looks perfect.

- Can I go play?
- Of course you can. Off you go.

So, Juliet seems lovely.

Well, you met her
for less than 90 seconds.

Well, I only needed that long

to work out that
she's friendly and gorgeous.

Is she? I hadn't noticed.

When you knocked over
my snow globe in 2nd grade,

I knew straight away.
So, don't even try.

- Okay, she's a nice person.
- Mm-hmm.

She's attractive.

And nice and attractive people

don't just fall into
your lap every day.

She didn't fall in my lap.

- She kinda did.
- Okay, stop.

We're not having
this conversation.

Juliet and I are just
doing a project together.

That's it.

We'll see about that.

No... we won't.

What do you think?

I asked you to put together

a range of different candle
samples for us to choose from.

Yeah, here they are.

- But these are all identical.
- Ah, but they're not.

Each one is handcrafted
and organically shaped.

No two are the same.

The magic is in the aroma.

Okay. Um...

when I asked for samples,

I meant a range of different
shapes and sizes,

like tall candles for the table

or small ones
for stocking stuffers.

- Stocking stuffers?
- Yeah, well, it's Christmas, you know.

But that's not how I work.

My brand is
the one shape and colour.

Well, that's another thing.
We're gonna have to offer more than one colour.

Hilda will never
agree otherwise.

Hold... hold on.
I thought you came to me

- because you wanted my candles.
- And I do.

Well, it sounds like
you're trying to make something completely new.

No, no, no, not at all.
You are in charge of the candle making.

I'm just in charge of
the marketing strategy.

Like, okay, imagine
you're scrolling through

- your social media and--
- I'm not on social media.

Of course you're not.

But I am, and my job is
to sell via social media.

And the Goodwell was built
on social media,

so you're gonna have
to trust me.

Okay. Fine.
Explain what you want us to do.

All right, so customers love
the organic shape of your candles.

But I really wanna
catch their eye

when they think of Christmas.
So, why don't we try

just a few subtle
Christmas shapes and colours

that really evoke gift-giving
and celebration, huh?

Okay. I... I guess
we could give it a try.

- That's the spirit.
- But we're just in the testing phase.

I will take it.

Here are the bottles of dye
and everything we need.

Great. Let's try
some Christmas colours, red and green.

Okay. Let's make some candles.

* He ain't comin'
by boat or plane *

No, no, just push
like this. Just push.

Chunks off.

Ugh!

* Come on, Santa
Bring those toys *

Come on!
I can't!

You can do it.

* The only thing I need
Come on, Santa *

* Is my baby on Christmas Eve

* Let's hope
the weather's good *

* And his elf flight crew
finds my neighbourhood *

* I know that
he's been here before *

* But this year
he's gonna use the door *

* I'm beggin' please
keep an open seat *

Doing okay?

What?

* Come on Santa,
bring those toys *

Oops!

* The only thing I need
Come on, Santa *

* Is my baby on Christmas Eve

- Look.
- Like that?

* It's that time of year

Oh, here we go.
There it is.

* He ain't comin'
by boat or plane *

* He's loaded down
with candy canes *

* I only hope he keeps
one open seat *

* Oh yeah

Okay.

- Yay!
- Yay!

* Bring all the presents
for the girls and boys *

* The only thing I need
Come on, Santa *

* Is my baby on Christmas Eve

* Let's hope
the weather's good *

* And his elf flight crew
finds my neighbourhood *

- Yep.
- Are you ready?

- Mm-hmm.
- Let's go. It's gonna be hot.

Okay!

Smells so good.

- Last one, here we go. Red.
- Yeah.

* Oh yeah

We're all done.

Mm!

* Is my baby on Christmas Eve

- Boo!
- Oof!

Very impressive.

The green, red, and white
are a good combination.

- You were right.
- Can I get that in writing?

And the different shapes
work for Christmas.

Well, thank you
for trusting me.

What are you doing now?

Oh, um, Lucy and I
are decorating cookies

for the office.
Spreading some Christmas cheer.

Olive's been bugging me
to make cookies.

Maybe she and I should
do that tonight, too.

Yeah. Ooh, hold on.

Hey, I was just talking
about you.

Oh, no, no, no, it's okay.

Yeah, just go have fun
with Felix.

Okay.

Well, that was over
before it started.

Lucy has a better offer,

a date with a new guy
she's crazy about.

Hard to compete with new love.

Yeah, but it's a bummer.

I had some new decorating hacks
I wanted to try.

I thought you didn't
like making things.

Oh no, I do.
I'm just a disaster zone.

I wouldn't recommend you actually eat anything I make.

You know, I make
a pretty mean cookie.

I remember.
Your gingerbread was delicious.

And... if you're looking
for some company,

Olive and I could join you.

I'd be happy to show you
some of my baking tips.

Really, are you sure?

I mean, Olive would love it

and I'm always interested in
learning new hacks in any genre.

Okay, yeah, let's do it.

- Okay, I'll see you later.
- 'Kay.

This is Mrs. Claus.

Oh, well, Mrs. Claus
is my favourite.

Me too!

You know she does so much work
behind the scenes

and never gets any credit?
It's all Santa, Santa, Santa.

Exactly.
That's what I think.

- Oh!
- Santa's pretty good too.

I mean, he's busy
making all those toys.

Daddy, the elves
make the toys.

- Ooh.
- She's right.

Well, Santa makes a list.
Checks it twice.

Uh, I think we all know
Mrs. Claus made that list.

All Santa does is
deliver the toys.

The glory work we call that,
right, Olive?

That's right.

You know, you're super fun
to hang out with.

- So are you!
- Aw.

Do you wanna come visit us
on Christmas Day?

We have room.

My grandma can't come.

Um...

I'm sure Juliet has
her own people

to spend Christmas with.

- Yes, I... I do. I do.
- Okay.

But if you change your mind,

our address is 1258 Davis Way.

1258 Davis Way. Got it.

She's having a ball.

So am I.

Marshmallow fight!

Oh! Oh!

No way! No way! No way!

Oh!

Excuse me!
Me too!

Sneak attacks are not allowed!
Not allowed!

- Hey.
- Hey! Right on time.

- Right on time.
- Well, thanks for agreeing to meet me here.

Are you kidding?
I love this place. - Oh good!

I thought we could just
walk around

and take in all
the Christmas smells and sights,

and try to come up with
a few Christmas memories to base our candles on.

Oh, so you've decided that
a sterile office

isn't the best place
to come up with ideas?

Yeah, someone told me ideas
flow when you fill your senses.

Oh, that someone sounds
really wise,

not to mention incredibly
cool and interesting.

- Yeah, he's all right.
- Oh!

Come on, let's go.

Oh, when I was a little girl,

I used to bake gingerbread
with my Grandma Minnie.

She was so soft-spoken
and patient.

She didn't care if
I took too long

or if my gingerbread
turned out to be terrible.

She just loved
spending time with me

and I loved spending time
with her.

My mom was a single mom,

and her mom died before
I was born, so...

I never got to know
my grandmother.

I feel so lucky that Olive
is so close with my mom.

I just... I love watching them
spend time together.

She'll remember it always.
I know I have.

That should be
our first scent.

We can call it,
"Grandma's Christmas Snuggles."

- I like it.
- Yeah, I think it's good.

Yeah.

Oh, look over there.

Oh!

You know, I still have
my stocking

from when I was a kid.

- Do you?
- No, no.

We moved so much, I don't know
what happened to it.

My parents aren't really
the sentimental type.

I'm not sure they kept anything,
except for me, of course.

My mom was
the total opposite.

She saved everything.

And she loved making
things by hand.

She actually made
my stocking for me.

And it's covered in
these intricate snowflakes.

It's a... it's
a real masterpiece.

I don't remember her
making mine, I was too young,

but I remember watching her
make my sister's,

and it was like... magic.

I mean, her furrowed brow,
her focus.

So, you've loved handmade
things since you were a kid.

Yeah, I... I guess
I got that gift from my mom.

She put it in
your stocking for you.

Yeah. Well, she also put
in a lot of chocolate and candy canes.

Oh, well, that should be
our second memory, then.

"Christmas Stocking Goodies."

Yeah, Mom will get
a real kick out of that one.

- Great!
- Okay.

We have five memories so far.

The first one is
Grandma's Christmas Snuggles,

which smells like
my Grandma Minnie's perfume,

herbs, and fabric softener.

Christmas Stocking Goodies,
which smells like chocolate

- and candy cane.
- My personal favourite.

Under the Christmas Tree,
which smells like

Christmas tree, hot cocoa,
and cookies.

Making Gingerbread,
which smells like

cinnamon, ginger, cloves,
star anise, and honey.

And then, finally,
Marshmallow and Kisses,

which smells like
marshmallow and shampoo.

Remind me why shampoo again?

'Cause whenever my mom
would snuggle and kiss me,

I could always smell
her shampoo.

Are you gonna be able
to pull this off?

I can try.

Ideally, we need
one more memory.

- Ugh, my brain is fried.
- Yeah, mine too.

Could probably use
some sustenance.

How do you feel about
ordering in some takeout to eat,

inside this time?

- Let's do it.
- Okay.

Christmas seems much more fun
when you have a kid around.

We do have some pretty
special Christmas memories.

There is one in particular.

It was Olive's first Christmas.

Her mom and I were so excited.

Olive couldn't even roll over
and I bought her a tricycle.

Oh Christmas Day, she laid
down on a blanket beside us,

mesmerized by the lights
on the tree.

She was giggling and smiling.

Sounds pretty perfect.

Olive and I lost Catherine,
so...

that memory becomes
more and more precious to me every Christmas.

Oh, Tom, I'm so sorry.

Oh, it was a long time ago.

Now, I just try to be present.

And live in each moment.

This building has such
old wiring.

The power should
come back on soon. - Oh.

Luckily, we're in
a candle store.

It all looks so beautiful.

Yeah, it does.

Oh... what I meant was,

sometimes it takes a blackout
to see things clearly.

I should get that
in case it's Olive.

Of course.

Hey, Maya.

Uh... oh no.

Okay. I'll see you soon.

- Oh.
- Oh. Power's back on.

But um, I gotta go.

Is everything okay?

Well, Olive has a tummy ache.

It's probably just
too many candy canes,

but Maya thinks that
she should skip the Santa visit

- they had planned, so...
- Hmm.

- It's not going over well.
- I'm sorry she has to miss out.

Yeah, me too.

"Flashing across the sky
like a shooting star."

Who's that?

I don't know.

I'll go check.

You wait here.

Merry Christmas!

Tom, this is Mrs. Claus.

Pleased to make
your acquaintance, sir,

but I'm not here to see you,
so move aside!

1258 Davis Way was
the address Santa gave me.

Come on in.

I'm looking for
a girl named Olive.

- Does she live here?
- Mrs. Claus?

Sure am!
And you must be Olive.

What are you doing here?

A little elfie told me

you were supposed to see
my husband today,

but didn't make it
to your appointment.

I have a tummy ache.

Oh. Well, Santa's stuck
at the mall,

but I had an opening
in my schedule,

so I thought I'd come instead.

You're even better than Santa.

Thank you. I know.

That's what I've been
trying to say.

Can I get you a drink of water
or hot cocoa, Mrs. Claus?

No, not for me.
Now, leave us to it.

Are you here to ask
what I want for Christmas?

Yes, I am! Let me get ready.

Okay, Olive, shoot.

It's pretty tricky.

Oh no, don't worry about that.

I've got incredible
resources at my disposal.

And it's not the normal
kind of thing kids ask for.

No such thing as normal.

One time, a little boy
asked me for a pet unicorn.

And then, another wanted
an invisibility potion.

And one time, a little girl
asked me to make her pet hamster smile.

This is definitely
easier than that.

Okay.

I really, really, really...

want my grandma to be here
on Christmas Day.

No toys or anything.

Just my grandma.

Oh...

O-okay, Olive.
You know what?

I'm gonna put a special word in
with Santa for you.

Thanks, Mrs. Claus.

Oh!

Oh.

Okay, now, my reindeer have to
their dinner, so I've gotta go.

Can Mrs. Claus
read me a story?

Oh, I'm sure Mrs. Claus needs
to get back to the North Pole.

Oh, no, no, no,
I'd love to read her a story.

Why don't you show me
to your room?

Let's go.

So, what do you think?

Can you make her Christmas wish
come true?

My mom runs a big charity called Together,

and they just lost
a major donor, so...

things are a bit tight,
and she can't get away.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Yeah, I didn't realize that
Olive was taking it this hard.

- But now I do, so thank you.
- Anytime.

I should probably go
check on them. - Mm-hmm.

Sorry, I was trying to get her
to go to sleep,

but still story time
with Mrs. Claus.

It's okay. Uh, she is
such a great kid.

Yeah, yeah, she really is.

Look, thanks so much for making
tonight so special for her.

- Oh, it was nothing.
- No.

No, it was... it was
definitely something.

You are...

Whoo!

Daddy, look at me!

Story time's over.

- Um, I should...
- We should...

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- See you tomorrow?
- Yes.

Come on. Off to bed.

It's just not coming together.

And we're running out of time.

Let me smell.

That's supposed to be
Under the Christmas Tree.

Hmm, maybe too much
Christmas Tree. - Hmm.

I'll try it again with
less pine and frankincense.

Uh...

Hi, Hilda.

Yeah, right now?
Okay, I'll see you soon.

Hilda wants to discuss

the preliminary budget
right now.

I'll keep working at this.

Okay, good luck.

They are stunning.

And they really evoke Christmas.

We're just finalizing
the scents and--

I would've thought you'd have
finished the product by now?

Well, it's only been
a few days.

That is not
our biggest problem.

These costs are simply too high.

- Well, it's a high-value item.
- That may be so, but at this point,

we're going to have
to price them at $150 a unit.

And they will be worth it.
They are uniquely tailored.

A one-of-a-kind creation.

A meaningful gift with hours
of burning life.

Juliet, the purpose
of this project

is to create a small
product drop

that will drive a wide range of
customers to our website.

The product has to have
a wide appeal. - I... I know this.

Well, you also know a candle

with $150 price tag
has a limited market.

Most people are gonna look
at that and they're just gonna move on.

I see your point.
But Tom and I really believe--

I am not interested
in what Tom thinks.

Well, we're partners.

He is your supplier.

This is your project.

I'm beginning to think that
you've become distracted

with the creative process
and your handsome collaborator.

So, put your business hat on.

The numbers need to add up.

So, bring the costs down
and lock in the product.

Because you are running
out of time, Juliet.

Why do we give presents
to all our neighbours,

even the ones we don't know?

Well, it's a neighbourhood
tradition.

And because Christmas
is a time of giving.

Grandma is helping
families in need

and we are doing
our part by giving gifts.

Yeah, like working
at the soup kitchen.

- Maya and I do that every year.
- We sure do.

I like that we help people,

but I still wish
Grandma was here.

Me too, kiddo.

I'm all done.

- I'm gonna go play now.
- Okay.

So... how is the memory candle
project going?

Well. Really, really well.

Oh! Really, really well.

- Stop it.
- Stop what?

I was talking
about the candles.

I finally figured out
all the scents today.

It was really complicated.

Mm-hmm?

- What?
- Nothing! It's just like

so obvious that you really,
really like Juliet.

Maya, you said
you were gonna stop trying to set me up with people.

I am not trying to set you up.

I am just nudging you
towards happiness.

- Feels more like a shove.
- I just want you to be happy.

I am happy.

Really, really happy?

What? Okay.

- Oh!
- Mm-hmm. Come on.

- Hi.
- Hey! You made it.

What is all this?

So, I finally worked out
the Christmas tree scent.

- Goodness.
- What do you think?

Smells just like
a Christmas tree.

Can't believe it.
You're... you're a genius.

So, why are we here?

Oh, so now that we have
all the scents,

we could get
some customer feedback,

and then, see if we need
to do any final tweaking.

- Yeah, that's a great idea.
- And then, once we get the feedback,

we're finally done.

Well, not exactly.

Um, I just spoke to Hilda

and we need to get
our unit price down.

But the only way to do that

is by using cheap,
artificial scents.

And you know that's not
what I want,

but we need to explore
all options.

- This is how it starts.
- The... how-what starts?

What exactly
are you talking about? - You change one thing,

and then another, until
there's nothing left of the original idea.

That's not what's
happening here.

- Are you sure?
- Yes!

Look, I care about this project
as much as you do.

You're not the only one
that has a lot riding on it.

What does that mean?

Well, this project is
kinda like a test for me.

If I can pull it off,
I get a huge promotion.

So, you just brought me in
as a pawn so you could get a promotion?

No! That... that's not
what I just said!

And here, I was thinking
that we were trying to make something special together.

We are!

Two things can be true
at the same time.

Come--

Tom, I don't understand why
you're so upset about this.

I asked you to be
totally transparent.

- And I have been.
- Seems like a pretty big detail to leave out.

A personal detail
about my career.

You and I have
a business relationship.

A business relationship?

That... that came out wrong.

No. No, you're right,
this is just business.

Tom, I have been honest
with you about everything.

Look, I didn't keep this
from you, I just didn't think it mattered.

That's all. I...
I never thought you would feel this way about it.

To be honest... neither did I.

Look, my last collaboration
did not go well.

There were a lot of lies.

I guess I'm just a little
suspicious this time around.

What if I pitched to Hilda
a two-tier line?

A premium line with
more natural ingredients

that you want, and then,
a cost-effective line that she needs?

I could be okay with that.

You can trust me.
I promise

we are in this together.

Good.

Let's get back to the stall.

Could we get you to smell
a candle for a second?

Hi! Would you like to just...
take... hmm.

Hi, would you like to try a...

Hi! Would you like
to smell... the candles?

Sir, could I get you
to smell the...

I...

Do you wanna smell... just...
all right.

Hi, do you have five minutes
to answer some questions about a...

Nope.

Everyone's in such a rush.

I have an idea.

- Be right back.
- Where are you going?

To get something that'll make
people stop in their tracks.

Could I get you to... no?
Okay.

Where did you even
get these from?

Lucy. Her wardrobe is
like a costume store.

We don't even
look like candles.

Speak for yourself.

I look and feel like
a burning flame.

I can't believe
I agreed to this. - Yeah, well, it's working.

- Hi! Would you like to smell?
- Oh, hi.

Can you answer some questions
after if you like it?

Is it good? Yeah?

Would you like to smell? Yeah?

What if I went like this?
Whoop!

Oh, can I hit you up?
You'll like it.

- Oh, wow.
- Yeah?

Okay, the Christmas Tree.
Wanna smell that one?

You like it? Yeah, yeah!

Oh!

Oh! Yeah, a little
high candle there.

Can't believe how fast
the day went.

I feel really burnt out.
Get it?

- Yeah, I get it.
- You're really wick...ed.

- They were no match for us!
- Okay, okay, that's enough.

What, you don't like my pun?
That makes no "scents!"

Please stop.

Oh.

Uh, hi, Hilda. Um...

Tomorrow? But it's only been a--

okay, sure.
I will see you then.

Uh, Hilda's getting a little
nervous on our timeline

and wants to hear
our presentation tomorrow.

Doesn't she know that
we're nowhere close to ready?

Well, there's no
such thing as not ready.

I'll just have to work
through the night.

Looks like we'll be burning
the candle at both ends.

Oh, look who's having pun now.

But I'll work on the budgets

and I'll get you some
new numbers for tonight.

Okay, great.
And I'll make sure that

our presentation is
tea-lightful.

Ha-ha.

Uh...

- Hey, where are you?
- About that.

Maya can't open the store
this morning

and I think you can handle
the presentation on your own?

It's a little last minute,

but um, yes, yeah,
I can handle it.

- I'll let you know how it goes.
- Okay, thanks for understanding.

Good luck.

Great.

Now priced at $75 per unit,

the Memories by Pure range
are organic candles

made with 100% pure soy wax
and natural oils,

designed for
a broad customer base--

This all looks great.

No, no, no, I still have
a lot more to go through.

I haven't even told you
about the premium line.

I have heard enough.

It ticks all the boxes.

I just have a few tweaks,
and then, we have sign off.

- A few tweaks?
- Oh, nothing significant.

Just an amendment clause or two
I'll attach to the contract

and send it to Tom.
There is no time to waste.

All right, well,
I'll get started on the social media campaign.

Congratulations, Juliet.
You did it.

Thank you.

This is my favourite.

Mm.

Have a merry Christmas.

Hey. How'd it go?

Hilda loved it.

So, it's happening?
Just like that?

Pretty much.

Yeah, she said she had a few
tweaks, but it's all systems go.

Uh, we have so much work to do

- before the launch next week.
- I'd better get started.

How many candles do we need?

Uh, we are still
working that out,

but you should receive
paperwork today with the order.

I feel like I've been

half holding my breath
since we started.

Well, now you can breathe
easy 'cause we did it.

- Together.
- We did.

Catherine and I started
this business together.

I forgot what it was like
to be part of a team

and share the wins.

We should get a drink.
We should celebrate!

Do you have time for a drink?

Uh... not really.

There's just so much to do.

Of course. Um...

let me know if there's
anything I can do.

Okay.

Juliet, something
amazing's happened!

Fantastic. Just tell me
about it after the launch.

Juliet?

Oh, is that for
best decorated office?

First place!
The candle launch, and this,

an equally important
achievement.

You should be celebrating!

I wish. I need to work.

You don't need to work.

- You've been at it all day.
- Wow.

And I will continue
to be at it all night.

This is a major moment.

Can you please stop and smell
the rose-scented candles for once?

Great things are happening.

You should try to enjoy it.
That's all I'm trying to say.

Maybe you're right.

Of course I'm right!

And speaking of being right,

I think you should
open yourself up to Tom.

I know you and you've been
walking on air

- for the last few days.
- I've just been enjoying the creative process.

It's not just that
and you know it.

So, you can bury your head
in work and let it pass you by,

or you can take this

and see what happens.

Hmm?

The Goodwell
sent the order.

This is incredible news!
What's the next step?

I'm not sure,
but it's all in here.

What's wrong?

These are new contract pages.

They made some
pretty big changes.

20 different scents?
Candles in every colour?

Customers get to choose
their scent combinations?

I mean, that's not
a few minor tweaks, that's total destruction.

- I'm not doing it.
- This is so unclear.

I don't even understand
how they can do this.

They're activating
an option, apparently.

"If the product is deemed
successful by the Goodwell,

the Goodwell has the right
to opt to increase production

and extend the aforementioned
product collection."

This is so unclear.
They don't define successful

or how much they can
increase production.

Maybe you should talk
to a lawyer?

I don't have that kind
of money. You know that.

I need to figure out a way
to make this work.

I never should've signed.

Oh! I love it!

I'll take this one.

Thank you!

For the launch, you have
to make 300 candles,

but next year,
when they increase production,

you could be required
to make 5,000 a week.

That's impossible.

I... I can't deliver that.

You're gonna have
to find a way

or you might be
in breach of your contract.

I decided you were right.

We should celebrate. Here.

And this is a little something
I saw for Olive

to put under the tree.
I couldn't help myself.

Is everything okay?

We need to talk.

I took this process seriously

and I was proud of what
we came up with.

Yeah, I'm proud, too.
What's going on?

I read the paperwork.

Memories by Pure range
isn't six, beautiful,

well-crafted memory candles.

It's a cheap, DIY, mass-produced
scented candle range

where customers
mix and match scents online.

Uh...

Mixing scents is complex.

I can't let customers
do that themselves.

It's a terrible idea
that won't work,

which is something
I could've told you

- if you had just asked me--
- I didn't know about any of this.

How can you say that
with a straight face?

I didn't!

I've been working
on the social media campaign.

I've spent all day
talking to influencers.

I hadn't read over
Hilda's changes yet.

Tom, you can trust me.

I didn't know!

Look, Hilda said she wanted
a small drop, a boutique range.

She obviously changed her mind.

Look, I'm sorry she made
all these changes, okay?

I didn't know about any of this!

Okay. Okay, so now that
you do know, will you change it back to the way it was?

- I... I can't.
- Of course you can't.

Hilda is my boss, okay?
She does what she wants.

This is obviously
what she wants.

What she wants is gonna
ruin my business.

How is that possible?
Your business will be booming!

Next year, I am contracted to make 5,000 candles a week.

5,000 a week! I don't have
the facilities for that.

And if I don't deliver,
the Goodwell will sue.

That is easily solved.

Because I can help you
expand your operation

and open... open
another workshop!

There's still time
to make changes! - But that's not what I want!

I thought you understood.

I don't wanna make junk
and constantly push and grow.

I wanna protect and enjoy
the beauty I already have.

I don't...

It's not a complete disaster.

Kind of feels
like it is right now.

But you're almost Senior
Vice President of Marketing.

I know. It's amazing.

It's just that...

Tom and I worked so hard on this

and he's so mad at me right now.

I'll get over it.

You mean you'll get over him?

Yeah, I mean I'll...

get over all of it.

- Reload?
- Yeah.

Cheers.

Daddy! Daddy! Do you wanna
make a gingerbread house?

- Not right now.
- Why?

I'm super busy, kiddo.

But Dad, please?

Look, I'm... I'm sorry,
sweet pea, I just have a lot to do, okay? Maybe tomorrow.

Hey, Juliet, it's Olive.

Do you wanna come over
and make a gingerbread house?

Pretty please?

My dad wants to talk to you.

Hi.

Yeah, she's very persuasive.

This is going to be
the best gingerbread house in the world.

I think so, too.

Uh, um, where would you
put this one?

Hmm...

maybe here because
it kind of looks like

Christmas lights
on top of a roof.

Yeah, it... it does.

Hey, Dad, doesn't it
look amazing?

Uh, yeah. Yeah,
it looks great, honey.

Uh, so I think,
let's just let this dry.

- It should take about 20 minutes.
- Thanks, Juliet.

- I'll see you then.
- Okay.

- You don't have to do that.
- It's fine. Um...

um... look, Tom...

I'm really sorry about
how things ended up.

When I came by the store, um...

seeing you so angry,
this was the last thing I expected to happen.

Why did you come by the store?

Just to celebrate and um...

see where the night took us.

I never thought
it would take us here.

Uh, look, if you need help with
the launch, I can bring--

It's... under control.

I'd rather work alone
from now on.

Okay. Um, so I should...
I should probably go.

But just tell Olive
goodbye for me, okay?

* Happy to be around

* Happy to say I'm here

* It's Christmas
It's Christmas *

* It's Christmas
It's Christmas **

- How's everything shaping up?
- Good! Good.

Tom is working around the clock
on the small release of candles.

We sent samples to a range
of wellness influencers

- to start the marketing campaign.
- Good.

Countdown to the website is on

and traffic to the website
has increased already.

Hmm. What are you thinking
for the launch?

Oh, just something
small and online

- from the Goodwell offices.
- Oh no.

We need something
in person and online.

How about we have a launch
party at the candle store?

Do a Q&A with Tom,
we'll stream it on social media

and take questions from
all over the Internet?

Ooh, do we really need
to have Tom there?

Of course we do.
Tom's brand gives

the whole range credibility.

- And he's easy on the eyes.
- Hilda.

Well, it's true.
It doesn't make sense

not to have him
front and centre.

So, you'll speak to him.

Sure.

Okay, listen up,
we have just one hour

before the press arrives.

Careful with those.
They're antiques.

Hey.

Uh, thanks for hosting.

Well, I'm not planning
on staying. I'm not needed, so I'm--

Actually, you are.

Um, Hilda wants you on the panel

as the face of Pure Candles.

Of course she does.

Hey.

Are you ready? Are you okay?

I'm fine. Just stressed.

Oh, well, public speaking
used to give me anxiety too.

I'm not anxious,
I'm exhausted.

I've been up most
nights worrying. - About what?

How to avoid a lawsuit, make
thousands of DIY memory candles,

and be a father
to Olive next year.

Yeah, it's a lot to juggle.

Um, hey, if you need help
with any of it--

Thanks, but I got myself
into this, I need to work out

a way to handle it on my own.

So, I think we have time
for one more question.

- Uh, yes?
- This is a question for Tom.

What does the future hold
for Pure Candles,

your own candle brand? I mean,
this is a little different

than your locally made products,
isn't it?

Um...

Well, that I'm unsure of.

I...

Well, um, that's all
the time we have for questions.

But I do have
a final announcement.

The Memories by Pure candles

next year will be mass-produced
by another candlemaker

under a sister brand,
name to be announced soon.

We thank Tom for bringing
his magic to the Goodwell

and bringing Christmas
memory candles to us all.

So, thank you, Tom.

We are very grateful
for the gift of

handmade products
made with love.

Mm-hmm.

- Thank you again.
- All right. Thank you.

- Thank you for today.
- Thank you.

You really are
full of surprises.

Yeah, well, it felt like
the right thing to do.

Well, judging by the look
on Hilda's face,

it was the first
she'd heard of it.

Yeah, let's just call it
a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Juliet, can we talk?

Yeah, excuse me.

-How are you doing?
- Okay.

So, what was that stunt
you pulled? We need Pure.

Needed. Past tense.

Now that the Christmas
drop is done,

another company would be
a better fit.

I disagree. The Pure brand
association is very valuable.

Look, the truth is...
Tom was gonna be a liability.

We wanna go big
and his operation just isn't up for it.

It was looking too risky.
I was protecting our business.

I guess that makes sense.

- Do you have another supplier?
- Yeah, I have options to choose from.

We can decide in the new year.

All right.

Smooth things over with Tom.

Increase his one-off payment
and get it processed ASAP.

Well, it looks like

website traffic is
through the roof.

Congratulations.
Promotion is yours.

Hey.

Great news. Hilda has
instructed me

to increase
your one-off payment.

It'll be in
your account tomorrow.

Thank you.

Is there something wrong?

When you told me you'd use
another supplier next year

because it was
the right thing to do,

I believed you.

Good, that's the truth.

But you just told Hilda that

you did it because
I'm a liability.

No, I was just saying that.

So, you say things behind
my back that you don't mean?

No, I... I mean,
it's complicated.

I did not mean it.

Another company would
be a better fit.

But you said yourself
Pure wouldn't cope,

that you were stressed.
I thought this was what you wanted.

It is and I'm grateful.

Just...

I thought you and I could be...

Be... be what?

Nothing. I...

I'm not sure I know
who you are and um,

it feels like you just are
who people want you to be.

Wow.

All right.

Um... I'm gonna go.

Senior Vice President.

- Has a nice ring to it.
- Sure does!

And well deserved.

I just got off the phone
with the board.

Traffic's up, sales are up,
everyone's happy.

Oh, and just in time
for Christmas. - Mm-hmm.

Well, since everyone's happy,

do you think I could
ask you a favour

as the new Senior
Vice President?

- Okay, I'm listening.
- Well, every year,

the Goodwell makes a donation
to a charity, right?

We do. It's the last bit
of business before Christmas.

Do you think the board
would allow me

to pick the charity this year?

How could they refuse?

Good!

'Cause I think
I have a great idea.

I bet you do.

Merry Christmas, Juliet.

Merry Christmas.

Good morning!

Things look back to normal
around here.

Yep. The whole Goodwell mess
is behind me

and I couldn't be happier.

You don't look very happy.

What are you talking about?
I'm overjoyed.

I have money in my account,

collaboration's over,
everything is peachy.

- Peachy?
- Yeah!

Why are you smiling like that?

I'm happy.

Yeah, you said that.

Have you spoken to Juliet yet?

Of course not.

Tom, she deserves
a simple thank you.

She did a pretty
great thing for you. - It wasn't for me.

Well, she said
that was the reason.

She said a lot of things.

I miss Grandma.

Yeah, me too, sweetie.

Yoo-hoo!

- Surprise!
- Grandma!

Ah, my baby girl!

I... I can't believe it.

But what are you doing here?

Did Mrs. Claus send you?

Who knows?!

She might have had
something to do with it.

She works in mysterious ways.

But how did you get away?

Well, we got a donor
at the 11th hour,

and I got the last plane ticket.

It all worked out in the end.

Oh, it's good to see you, Mom.
I missed ya.

Oh, I missed you both so much.

Button.

Out of all our Christmas
traditions,

I think Christmas Eve waffles
might be my favourite.

I think my favourite
is seeing the three of you

in these ridiculous,
matching Christmas sweaters.

Yes, especially when you make me wear yours.

And mine is opening

one present on Christmas Eve.

- Can we do that?
- It's a little early yet, Button.

Please, Dad,
please can we do it?

Okay. Which one?

- This one.
- Who's it from?

Juliet!

Juliet, huh?

It's Mrs. Claus!
I love it.

Who's Juliet?

- A friend of Daddy's.
- She's gorgeous.

We love her.

Oh, tell me more.

It's not like that.

We collaborated together
on a project.

She works for this uh,
wellness and lifestyle company.

Oh, it's a super cool company.
A lot of celebs buy their stuff.

They're only on social media
and online, though,

so you probably haven't
heard of them.

I go online.

I'm hip.
What's it called?

The Goodwell.

I know the Goodwell,
but not online.

The Goodwell is our new donor.

No, that...
that can't be right.

Yes. Yes.

The Goodwell, a wellness
and lifestyle company.

Just made a very
generous donation.

I don't believe it. I...

I do. That was Juliet.

- She did this for you.
- No, it's just a coincidence.

And how could she have known
that's Mom's charity?

I didn't say...

You told her about Together.

Yeah, when Mrs. Claus
was here, I said that Mom

couldn't make it because
they had lost a major donor.

Well, I wanna meet this Juliet
and thank her personally.

Well, you can't, Mom.

Tom, the big doofus,
isn't talking to her.

Don't call
your brother a doofus.

No, it's... it's okay, Mom.
I am a doofus.

Oh, fair enough.

A complete and total fool.
I... I gotta go.

- Where?
- Uh, I...

I gotta see if I can catch her
before she leaves for Christmas.

Are you okay?

Yeah, um...

- You ready?
- Let me just go grab my bag.

That must be Felix.

Gotta get my phone charger.

Oh!

Look who I found.

Hi.

Hi.

Uh...

you're on your way out.

Yeah, we're leaving
any minute.

You two take
all the time you need.

So, I'll, uh,
I should be quick.

Um...

I'm a doofus.

What?

I was suspicious,
and stubborn,

- and unreasonable.
- Okay...

And I understand if
you don't wanna hear me out.

I should've believed you
when you made things right.

I should've trusted your word,
and I didn't, and I'm sorry.

- You don't need to apologize.
- No, I do.

After all you've done,

making that donation
to my mom's charity,

thank you.

That's Felix.

Uh... sorry.

We should um...
we have to get going.

We wanna beat traffic.

Or you could stay.

Spend Christmas Eve with me?

I can't. I can't.

Yes, she can.

Lucy, no.
No, it would be rude of me

to cancel on your family.

It's not rude.
It's smart.

My uncle ever stops talking,
my mom burns everything she cooks.

So, go.

See the night through.

I can't believe it, but somehow,

you and I are both gonna spend
Christmas with someone special.

Um, no, well, I guess
that's a yes, then.

Great.

Let's get your coat.

I hope Santa
likes my cookies.

Of course he will.
They're made with love.

I haven't done this
in a really long time,

so thank you all for
including me in the magic.

- Of course!
- Everybody deserves a little Christmas magic.

Oh, I think it's time for somebody to go to bed.

Santa will be here soon.

You'll come back tomorrow,
right?

Of course I will.

- Good.
- I'll tuck her in.

I'm really, really happy
this all worked out.

- Good night.
- Thanks.

Uh, I should get going.

- I'll walk you home.
- Oh no, you don't have to.

Of course I do.
And uh... I want to.

You know, I just realized,

you're gonna wake up
on Christmas Day all on your own.

You should come straight over
for Christmas morning pancakes.

Olive made me promise
to remind you.

I will be there.

Oh, this isn't the way.

Uh, I wanna take a detour.

Come on.

- I love this place.
- Yeah, me too.

Thank you for today.

I love your family traditions.

Like the one of you
getting stuck up the chimney

- looking for Santa.
- Yeah, that is a family favourite.

I think I made some
new favourite Christmas memories today.

Me too.

But not just today.

The last couple weeks with you.

Like uh...

like making candles
at the shop with you.

Oh, um...

walking through
the Christmas market.

When we made cookies
with Olive.

Yeah, the marshmallow fight.

Oh.

That was something.

When the power went out.

And when we first met.

Dreamy Eyes.

- What did you call me?
- Yeah.

But I think
my favourite memory is...

is this moment right now.

Me too.

What do you say we come back
here again next Christmas?

A new Christmas tradition
just for the two of us.

Oh, that's a leap of faith.

Planning something so far ahead?

I thought you liked planning?

Oh, I do, but I don't normally
plan something without data,

and a risk analysis,
and a roadmap.

Ooh, well, I guess we'll
just have to wing it, then.

I guess so.

Merry Christmas, Juliet.

Merry Christmas, Tom.
