♪ Santa hurry down

- Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas.

- You broke up with her

because she didn't want to
watch a Christmas movie.

- It wasn't just that.

She said that anything
to do with the holidays

gave her a headache.

I mean, who doesn't
love Christmas?

- Yeah, but still.

- It wasn't right, Rick.

And we both knew it.

We didn't have that thing.

- What thing?

- You know, that feeling you get

when you just
click with someone.

You laugh, the same word stuff

and just get each other.

- Right, of course.

The thing.

♪ Yeah ♪

♪ Watching movies
by the fireside ♪

(kid crying)

- Oh, no.

What's wrong?

Ah.

♪ Little chimney tonight ♪

♪ The lights on the
tree are shining ♪

♪ Shining bright
for yours and mine ♪

- You're a hopeless
romantic, Mark.

- I'm a hopeful one.

- Do you know what Santa
thinks about lollipops?

He doesn't like them
as much as candy canes.

He loves candy canes.

Do you know why?
- Why?

- Because they remind
him of Christmas.

And when you see a candy cane,

it means Christmas
can't be far away.

- I like Christmas.

- I had a feeling.

And how about candy canes?

Yeah?

Ha!

- [Parent] Aw, thank you.

Isn't she nice?

- [Kate] For you.

Do you feel better?

- Thank you.

- Good.

(gentle music)

- Oh, oh.

Can you hold this for a sec?

I got it, I got, I got it.

(bag thudding)

- Thanks.

- I like your elf costume.

- What costume?

(Mark stutters)

It's for work.

- At the North Pole?

(Kate laughing)

I think you're on
the wrong bus line.

(Kate laughing)

Is that for Christmas crafts?

- It's my favorite
time of the year.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Who doesn't love Christmas?

- Right?

(bus thudding)

- Sorry.

- Why?

- Uh, this is my stop.

- Uh...

(gentle music)

(bus rumbling)

(gentle music)

- An elf, Mark?

Really?

- Look.

She left behind one
of her earrings.

- If you start talking
about Cinderella,

I might be physically sick.

- Why didn't I get her name?

(phone ringing)

- Hey, Josie, you at the shop?

- Almost, I stopped
to grab us some coffee

and I have donuts.

- You're an angel.

- See you soon.

Oh.

(gentle music)

(Josie gasps)

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)
(bell ringing)

(gentle music continues)
(bell ringing continues)

(gentle music continues)
(doorbell chiming)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)
(footsteps tapping)

(gentle music continues)
(doorbell chiming)

- Morning.
- Morning.

Coffee?

- Remind me to give you a raise.

- It's already in your calendar.

- How efficient?

- Mm.

The kids are gonna love
seeing you as miss elf today.

- Well, as long as somebody
appreciates the effort.

(footsteps tapping)

- I think you
better have a donut.

- Why?

- They always make me feel
better when I'm feeling down.

- Who says I'm feeling down?

- You got another letter.

(soft somber music)

- And so the
projections look good.

Thank you very much everyone.

I think we're off to a great
start by the look of things.

I'll go over the changes
with everyone more thoroughly

later this week.

(door clicks shut)

- Dear Ms. Snow,

this letter serves as notice
that Klein Enterprises

will be moving
forward with its plans

for the renovation
of Founder Square.

We are exercising the
buyout option in your lease,

and you'll need to vacate your
premises by December 30th.

Please contact us to discuss
the details of the buyout.

So this is happening?

- Not yet, it's not.

- But Kate, you've
tried everything.

You even had a meeting
with that congressman.

- Well, one thing I haven't done

is going straight to the top.

- Klein?

- Yep.

- Did you know you're
missing an earring?

Or is that the new elf style?

- Oh, no.

It must have fallen
off on the bus

when I was talking to that guy.

- What guy?

- Just this guy
I met on the bus.

I dropped my bag and he
helped me pick everything up.

He was very nice.

- Did you exchange numbers?

- We didn't even exchange names.

We barely talked.

Besides, I don't even have time

to think about bus
guy or any guy.

- Okay.
- So good.

- I don't believe you.

(Josie chuckles)

(soft gentle music)

(soft gentle music continues)
(fingers tapping)

(soft gentle music continues)
(keyboard clacking)

- Welcome to Missed Connections.

Did you see someone in town

and just didn't
make the connection?

We can help.

(gentle music)
(keyboard clacking)

Post a message here

and maybe that someone
special will see it.

(gentle music)

Now, let's find that
missed connection.

- Hey, just want to go
over the plans for the-

You good?

- Yeah, yeah, of course.

What do you got there?

- I changed the font
on the DuCross deal.

- Cool, cool.

Nice.

Thank you.
- Okay.

I'll leave you to it.

- Yeah.

(playful music)

(gentle music)

- I'm so glad you had
time to come for a visit.

I know how busy it is
at the shop right now.

- Are you kidding?

I wouldn't miss our
tree trimming tradition.

(parents laughing softly)

- Not to spoil the mood,

but what are you gonna
do about the letters?

- Well, they can
keep sending them,

but I'm not gonna give
up on the shop yet.

- Yeah, honey,
listen, Klein's offer-

- Dad, I know what
you're gonna say,

but I'm not gonna accept it
no matter how much it is.

Our lease isn't
up for six years.

We can fight this.

- Kate, you are looking at
this from only one side.

- This has been our family
business for over 30 years.

That's the only
side I care about.

- I just don't want you making
yourself sick over this.

- Oh, wow.

Remember this?

I think I made it
in the first grade.

Maybe I should make
ornaments with the kids

on the next craft day.

- Honey, listen.

There isn't much time left.

They wanna force you out.

- I'm not gonna let them
take us down without a fight.

I wrote a petition
letter against Klein

for all the shops to sign and
I'm gonna go down there myself

and talk to him.

I have to try, dad

Now, who wants eggnog?

(footsteps tapping)

(playful music)

(Rick knocking on door frame)

- Anything from
Missed Connections?

- Just a lot of single women

claiming to be
missing an earring.

- So what's next?

- I don't know.

Maybe I am just a hopeless
romantic, like you said.

- No, you're just believing

in the whole
Christmas magic thing.

I mean, what are the chances
that your car breaks down

that day and you end
up on the same bus?

- Yeah, it seems so right.

I won't give up hope just yet.

- Oh, the boss wants the
stats on the Morgan deal.

- Right, I'm on it.

- That's for you.

(playful music)

(gentle music)

- Morning.
- Morning.

Wow, you look great.

- Thank you.

- Hot coffee.

- Ah, thank you for the coffee.

It's freezing out.

Winter has definitely arrived.

And I got the stuff for the
kids' craft thing later.

- The little munchkins should
have fun decorating ornaments.

Such a great idea.

- How are we doing
with volunteers for
the Boxing Day party?

- We don't have anyone yet.

I think everyone's
just so busy this year.

- Well, I made these flyers.

Maybe they'll help.

Can you hold down the
fort for a few hours?

I'm gonna go see Klein.

- Ah, so that's
why the power suit.

I was wondering why
you were dressed up.

- Too much?

- On the contrary, a
power suit exudes power.

- Hmm.

(playful music)

(Rick knocking on door frame)

- No elf.

I seriously doubt she's
gonna see the post.

- I won't give up just yet.

I kind of moved things
along this morning.

- What do you mean?

- I increased your
ad visibility.

I posted that sketch you
made of her on the bus stop.

- You what?

- Ah, don't blow a fuse.

I didn't say you were
begging for your Cinderella

to come forth and try
on a shoe or anything.

(playful music)

- Have you seen this elf?

To the delightful elf I
met on the Crosstown Bus

on Monday morning, I have
the earring you lost.

You have my heart?

Let's meet and trade!

You put my real phone
number on there.

- It's great stuff, huh?

- You put this up where
people can see it?

- Well, that's the
point, isn't it?

- She's gonna think I'm nuts!

- Or she's gonna think
it's hopelessly romantic.

- Or hopelessly cringey.

No, no.

I'm taking these down.

- There's no time.
Don't you have the meeting
with the boss at Thompsons?

- Oh, right.

Okay.

Don't do anything
until I get back.

- I cannot promise anything.

(Mark groans)

(cars honking in distance)

(gentle music)
(footsteps taping)

- Ah, thanks.

- Thanks.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)
(footsteps tapping)

- I'd like to see Mr. Klein.

- Do you have an appointment?

- No, I don't.

- I'm sorry, but Mr.
Klein is out of the office

and he doesn't see anyone
without an appointment.

- But it's urgent.

Can I make an appointment?

- I'm sorry, he's
booked up for months.

- Look, what's your name?

- Emily.
- Emily.

Mr. Klein has a project that's
gonna shut down my business

and I know that If I
could just talk to him-

- Mr. Klein does not see
anyone without an appointment.

- I see.

He's not really out
of the office, is he?

That's just something you say.

Well, if he is here,

he is gonna have to
appear at some point.

And when he does, I'll
be right over here.

(soft playful music)

- We may have a
situation down here.

(phone clicking)

(tense music)
(footsteps tapping)

Sorry, but I didn't
get your name.

- Kate Snow.

I'm one of the little businesses

Mr. Klein is trying to
force out of Founder Square.

Someone should
have a file on me.

(footsteps tapping)

- Hey!

It's you again.

- So it is.

I work a few blocks away over
at Treasures From the Heart.

- Oh, I know that place.

- Nice work.

- Oh, thank you.

- Is this your shop?

- No, it's my dad's.

I just manage and do repairs.

Any wooden furniture,
instruments?

You got 'em, I can fix 'em.

I'm Paul.

- Josie.

- Nice to meet you.

- That guitar, it's a classic.

- It is.
How did you know that?

- My dad is a jazz guitarist.

We had guitars all
around the house.

What is it going for?

- I'd be willing to part
with it for 700 bucks.

- Oof.

It's kind of out of my budget.

- I can make you a deal.

- No, that's okay.

Thank you, anyways.

Nice to meet you.

- You too.

(tense music)

- Hi there.

Ready?
- Let's go.

Come on.

We'll be there by five.

(tense music)

(tense music continues)
(footsteps tapping)

- [Rick] And that's
our initial plans

for the Founder
Square Transformation.

Thoughts?

- Excuse me.

I'm sorry to interrupt
your meeting,

but it's very important
that I speak to Mr. Klein

about what's going on with
the new renovation plans

in Founders Square.

- I'm sorry, who are you?

- I'm Kate Snow.

I own Treasures from
the Heart Gift Shop,

the shop you're
trying to shut down.

Is one of you Mr. Klein?

- Ms. Snow, you can't
just barge in here.

- I know this is extreme,

but I know my shop
means absolutely nothing

to you or your company,

but it means a lot to the
people in my neighborhood.

These people have
been coming to my shop

and dozens of other one of a
kind businesses for decades

and suddenly we're being
wiped away like we're nothing.

We're not nothing.

If you could just
come down to my shop,

you'd see how important
it's to the community

and what a mistake it
is that you're making.

- I'm so sorry.

I've called security.

- Fine, I'll go.

But please have
Mr. Klein call me.

(somber music)

- Sorry for the intrusion.

Let me speak to Ms.
Snow for a moment.

(footsteps tapping)

- Emily!

Emily, I've got this.

Ms. Snow, could
you wait a moment?

The person you want to
speak to is Mark Goodwin.

You probably received a letter.

- Yes, but Mr. Klein
is the one in charge.

- Mr. Goodwin is handling
this part of the operation.

I'll make sure he gets
in touch with you.

- I'd appreciate that.

- You're welcome.

(gentle music)

(phone ringing)

- [Mark] You've
reached Mark Goodwin.

Please leave a message.

(phone beeps)

- Hey, buddy.

- If we can get the city
to approve the new plans

and the permits come in
by the end of the month,

we should be able to get started

with construction mid-January.

- I'll get over to the
building department

first thing tomorrow, Mr. Klein.

- How's it going
with the tenants?

- I've yet to hear back
from a few of them.

I'm actually trying to head over

and see one of them right now.

- Which one?

- Treasures From the Heart.

- Let me know how it goes.

(cheerful festive music)

(cheerful festive

(gentle music)

(phone whistles)

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)
(doorbell chiming)

- [Phone] You have
three new messages.

- [Kevin] Hi, Mark.

This is Kevin from the
Planning Commission.

I have those answers for you.

Give me a call back.

- [Elizabeth] Hi, Mark.

This is Elizabeth from
the rental company.

There have been some changes.

Please call in to discuss.

Give me a call
when you get this.

- Can I help you
with anything today?

- [Rick] Hey, buddy.

- You know, I used to have
one of these as a kid.

Only that the train was red.

- Well, I know where you
can find a set like that

if you're interested.

I know a guy.

He collects toy trains
and lots of other stuff.

His name is Bill
and he has a website

with all of his inventory on it.

I'm sure he could
find something for you

if he doesn't already
have it in stock.

- Thanks, I appreciate it.

I'm actually here to
talk to Kate Snow.

Are you Kate?

- I'm Josie.

Kate should be back soon.

Is there something
I can help you with?

- No, no, no.

I'm just gonna look
around and wait.

This stuff is amazing.

(playful music)

(playful music continues)
(doorbell chiming)

- What happened?

- You are not
gonna believe this.

- You're the elf.

- Well, not today.

- I've been looking for you.

- I saw.

- Oh.

Ah yeah, I can explain that.

- How'd you find
out where I work?

- I didn't.

My name's Mark.

- I'm Kate.

- Kate.

This is crazy.

I came to see you because I
work for Klein Enterprises.

I'm Mark Goodwin.

- The one sending me letters

telling me I need
to leave my shop?

- The same one, yeah.

- Josie, could you watch
the store for a few minutes?

- Of course.

- Why don't we
talk in my office?

(footsteps tapping)

I'm sure you heard I
tried to see Klein today.

- No, actually.

- I just wanted Klein to know

that our shop is still relevant.

If he would just come down
and see this place in person,

he'd realize how much
people love us and value us.

- Kate, that's not how
big business works.

- I realize that.

But this is an
unusual situation.

We don't just sell
unique gifts here.

We're a part of the community.

We hold classes for kids, events
where people come together.

Isn't he interested
in that at all?

- Yes, of course he is.

Klein has an ambitious
vision for this block.

He wants to renovate
the whole thing.

It's gonna bring a
lot more business

and really help the community.

- But not the businesses
that are already here.

And what if I refuse to leave?

I still have time on my lease.

- Kate, Klein already
owns the block.

The lease buyout offer
is very generous,

but if you try to fight it,
you could wind up with nothing.

Look, I really want to
help you and the others

get the best outcome.

With what we're offering, you
could find a bigger space.

- But it won't be this space.

I'm not giving up.

Now if you'll excuse me, I
have to get back to work.

Oh and...

You can have these back.

- For what it's worth, it
was really nice meeting you.

(somber music)

(somber music continues)

- Hey, bus guy!

Here is the information
about the trains.

Maybe it'll work out for you.

- Thanks.

(somber music)

- Thank you for
coming, everyone.

I know we're all facing
the same situation

and I wanted us to get together
to brainstorm some ideas.

Our shops have...

They've been like
homes of family members

and I refuse to be forced out.

We have to find a way to stop
Klein from moving forward.

- I was here when your father
started up this establishment,

Kate, been here a long time.

But I have to say their
buyout offer is a good one

for someone like me who's
thinking of retiring soon.

- I know they're
offering a lot of money,

but can money replace memories?

Can money replace dreams?

Because that's what
these shops are built on.

The dreams of our
grandparents, of our parents,

and some cases, our own.

- I've owed my art
gallery for so many years.

What else would I
do for a living?

- Kate and I wrote
this letter to Klein

asking him to reconsider
keeping our shops open.

- We hope you'll read it
and consider signing it.

If we don't stick together,

we'll all be forced
to give up our shops.

- Just because I
may not want to stay

doesn't mean I won't fight
for any fellow neighbors.

Who knows?

I've always been one to
believe in Christmas miracles.

- Thank you, all of you.

And yes, it is the
time for miracles

and maybe a little action to
make those miracles happen.

Thanks, Estelle.

(car honking)

- We prefer not to resort
to forceful tactics,

but this is a billion dollar
deal we're talking about, Mark,

one that'll bring untold
dollars into the local economy.

- I understand that, of course.

But these people have
a long history there.

One tenant I talked to,
she's second generation.

Her father started
the shop 30 years ago.

- 30 years is a long time.

And that history is
old and crumbling

and in dire need of renovating.

It's not like they can't
move their inventory

to another location.

The money we're offering
is nothing to sneeze at.

Come the end of the month,

we will move more forcefully
if need be on all accounts.

- I'll get it done.

(gentle music)

- Oh.

(gentle music)

- Hey!

Josie, right?

- Yeah, hi.
- Hey.

- You sold the guitar?

- Yeah, a classic like that

tend to get scooped
up pretty quick.

You really liked it, didn't you?

- I have always wanted
to learn how to play.

My dad tried to
teach me as a kid

and I would lose
focus every time.

It drove him nuts.

- I mean, if you wanted
lessons, I could teach you.

- I can't really afford
lessons right now.

I'm spending all my money
on Christmas presents

and I might be out
of a job soon, so...

- Well, in the
spirit of Christmas,

I can give you some free lessons
in exchange for some help.

- What kind of help?

- I want to find my mom a
really great gift this year.

Something special.

I've been looking myself,
but I've had no luck.

Maybe you can keep an eye open
for something in your shop?

- Sure, I could do that.

How many lessons would be free?

- Let's say seven.

- Wow, really?

Where?

- Here.

I close up shop around 5:30

and then give lessons
after we lock up.

- Sure.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

- Incoming.

Have we gotten that
Christmas miracle yet?

Merry Christmas.

- Not quite.

- You're an elf again.

- It's the day I do
crafts with the kids.

What are you doing here?

- Your flyer said that
you needed volunteers

for your Boxing Day party.

Where do I sign up?

- He bought a
bunch of stuff too.

- What?

- It was of his own free will.

He got some cute things.

That train set,

some of those old opera books
you got at the estate sale.

Oh, and that neat 1920s lamp.

- I love that lamp.

- Yeah, it's for my sister.
She's gonna love it too.

- Shouldn't you be evicting
old ladies from their homes

or pricing out
bulldozing equipment?

- I'm free after five.

Does that work?

- Look, I know
what you're doing.

You're just here to get me
to sign the buyout offer.

- Of course I am.

But, I'm also here to help.

- It's not gonna work,

this whole playing nice thing,

because I'm convinced the
store is worth saving.

- And I look forward to
hearing your arguments.

You need the free
labor, don't you?

- Fine.

I'll see you around six.

- Okay.

- Don't even think it.

(gentle music)

- You volunteered to do what?

- Make Christmas
decorations or something.

I'm not sure.

- So that's your plan?

- Hey, at least she's
talking to me now.

I'll make the rest
up as I go along.

- You're not doing this just
to spend time with her, right?

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

- Here you go,
have a good night.

Hey, bus guy.

- Hey, Josie.

- Here, let me get you an apron
so you don't ruin that suit.

May as well complete the look.

- I guess.

- Welcome Santa's little helper.

(gentle music)

- Well, at least you're on time.

- At your service.

- Hmm.

- I've gotta run.

I have my guitar lesson.

- Oh, that's right, I forgot.

- You'll be okay?

- Absolutely fine.

- Okay.

Oh, I forgot to tell you.

We got 25 more positive
reviews today online.

- Really?

That's amazing.

- Oh yeah.

Oh, and Tony called
from the paper.

He said he's gonna
write a feature on us.

He also said that
Christmas is only Christmas

because of our magical store.

- Well, isn't that nice?

- I know, right?

We're still going viral.

Have fun you two.

- So how are you at stenciling?

I was thinking we'd paint
glass ornaments with snowmen

and Christmas trees and we
can hang them from the ceiling

along with the garland.

And after that, we can work on
centerpieces for the tables.

- Okay, sounds good.

Wait, what's stenciling?

Is it like that graffiti
spray paint thing?

- Sort of.

Just help me put the paper
down and we'll get started.

(gentle music)

(indistinct chattering)

- Thank you.

I know.
- Of course.

- In some big LA pawn shop now.

(gentle music)

Goodnight.

Come on in.

(train honking)

- Sorry, I shouldn't laugh.

- I didn't say I
was Picasso, okay?

I haven't painted
since I was like 10.

- I can see that.

- So tell me more about
this Boxing Day party.

How'd you guys start it?

- My dad started it years ago.

In England, they celebrate
Boxing Day on the 26th.

Since workers on big estates
had to work on Christmas,

Boxing Day was the
day they had off

and open presents
and stuff like that.

A lot of people we knew were
shop owners, like my dad.

Since they had to
work on Christmas...

- He would throw a party
for them the next day.

- Yeah.

- Your dad sounds
like a great guy.

- Yeah, he is.
He's retired now.

- So it's just you and Josie?

- Yeah.

- So it must be hard
to have a personal life

when you're tied to
the shop like that.

- I see what you did.

- What?
- That's a nice try.

- What?

- I wouldn't change a
single thing about the shop

or the hours that I
do because I love it.

- And you could love
it in another location.

- I could, but I don't want to.

(gentle guitar music)

- My fingers are cramping.

- That's normal.

It'll take a little while
to get used to that.

- This is way harder
than I thought.

- It's just because it's new.

Your brain is absorbing
new information.

- Here, you play.

I need a break.

(gentle guitar music)

♪ We wish you a
merry Christmas ♪

♪ We wish you a
merry Christmas ♪

♪ We wish you a merry Christmas
and a happy New Year ♪

- That was really good.

- Thanks.

So what makes you
pick up a guitar now?

- It was my New Year's
resolution to start.

I'm a little late on that one.

Hey, could you
teach me that song?

The simple version?

I'd like to try and
play it for my dad,

even if it sounds terrible.

I don't care.

- Sure.

When will you see him?

- On Christmas Day.

- Oh, then you're gonna
want to come every day.

You need to practice.

- Do you have time?

- I can make time.

- I was thinking about
the gift for your mom.

I might have found something.

You should come by the shop.

- Okay, I will.

But first, let's see
you play that G chord.

(Kate laughing)

- That did not happen.

- No, I swear.

I thought I'd found the
real Santa and I followed

this poor guy around the
store asking for a toy train.

My parents were mortified,
but I was only six.

- So I guess you
can be forgiven.

- Yeah.

You know, you're exactly
who I thought you'd be.

- What do you mean?

- When we met that
day on the bus,

I thought you were this
funny, beautiful girl

who also happened to love
Christmas and I was right.

I just regretted not
getting your name.

- So you put up flyers.

- That was not me.

My friend Rick got a
little carried away.

- Oh, so I don't
have your heart.

(phone ringing)

- Now it's work.

- Ah, you should go.

- Yeah, I gotta go.

But since neither of us
changed each other's minds

about staying or leaving, how
about I come back tomorrow?

We could work on that garland.

- Okay.

But only if you promise
to actually think about

what our shop means to
the whole community.

- Deal.

Six work?

- Okay.

(phone ringing)

Hey, dad.

- Hey, sweetheart.

How are you?

- I'm good.

Someone was just asking
about the Boxing Day party

and it made me think of you.

Just wanted to see
how you're doing.

- Well, I'm
breathing in and out,

so I guess I'm
doing pretty good.

How about you?

How's the shop?

- Oh, busy.

You know, the usual.

Still working on
trying to save it.

- Yeah, well, you do
what you think is best.

Try to take it easy, okay?

I worry about you.

Don't be too busy to eat, okay?

- [Kate] Just stopping
to get something now.

I love you, dad.

- Love you back.

(gentle music)
(people chattering)

- [Kate] Estelle.

(Estelle laughing)

- Hey, Kate.

- I guess Estella is work, huh?

- Wait, Kate, I was
just doing my job.

- By your job you
mean coming to my shop

and flirting with me,

then going after Estella
and flirting with her too?

Is that your whole strategy?

- Wait, hold on a minute.

What are you implying?

- I have no idea if
anything you've said to me

is true or not.

- This is clearly all
a big misunderstanding.

I was having dinner with
Estelle because I was-

- You know, just don't.

And I think you can skip
helping out tomorrow.

I don't like the
way you do business.

- Kate!

(car honking)

- It was like they were
on a date or something.

He was trying to charm
her into signing the deal.

- If I didn't know you better,

I'd say you sound
a little jelly.

- Jealous?

Please, no, she
is welcome to him.

I am not interested.

- Boy.

Did he trigger you or what?

- Well that met
a crowded bus stuff.

You know what, he was trying
to use that to get me to sign.

- Was he?

- What, are you on his side now?

- No, no, of course not.

But be honest.

When you met him on that bus,
didn't you feel something?

- That does not matter.

- Doesn't it?

- What's that?

- Paul lent it to me.

I don't have a guitar, so he
said I could use this one.

- Well, that's generous of him.

- Yeah, he's pretty nice.

- Well, at least
you have a nice guy.

- Yeah, but he seems to be

a little too popular
with the ladies.

- What, he has like
groupies or something?

- No, but there's
this one girl there

and she seems too friendly.

- Maybe she's just
another customer.

Don't jump to conclusions.

I'm gonna go unpack
this in the back.

- So she thinks you
were faking everything.

- She wouldn't even
let me explain.

- Maybe you need to
stop thinking about her

as your dream elf and think
about her as just business.

I think the romance
ship has sailed.

- That's it, that's your advice?

Unless you can get
Klein to change his mind

about her store, your job is
always gonna be the problem.

(gentle music)

- Hi, Josie.

- Oh, hey Estelle.

- Is Kate here?

- Yeah, she's just
back in her office.

(soft music)

- So you signed the deal?

- Yes.

It stinks, I know,

but I can't go down
with the sinking ship.

- What did he say
to get you to cave?

- He didn't say anything.

I'm the one who
asked for more money,

so we had dinner and negotiated.

He gave me a little
more and I took it.

- Really, he didn't try to
sweet talk you or anything?

- No, I wish he would've though.

I tried flirting with him,
but I guess I'm not his type.

- So what now?

- I don't know.

I don't know if I should
try to reopen elsewhere

or do something new.

My head is still spinning.

- Mine too.

- Do you hate me?

- No, no.

Of course not.

I just, I can't believe
this is happening to us all.

So when's your last day?

- Day after Christmas.

We'll have a blowout
sale and be done with it.

- Wow, that's soon.

- Que sera sera, right?

- Will you stop in before you
go for the Boxing Day party.

- Of course, wouldn't miss it.

I'm sorry, Kate.

I really am.

- It's okay.

We all have to do
what's right for us.

I wish you nothing but
happiness, Estelle.

(gentle music)

(cheerful music)

(cheerful music continues)

(Mark knocking on window)

(cheerful music)

- Hi.

- Hi.

- You eaten?

- No.

- Wanna?

- Why?

What are you up to?

- Nothing.

It's just dinner.

- Why should I even
be talking to you?

- Because I have two warm subs

that are getting colder by the
minute and two bags of chips.

You can have both
of them if you want.

Okay, this one's for you.

Alright.

- Hey, bus guy's back.

I have my lesson,

but I'll wrap some more
gifts in the morning.

- Perfect.

Have a great lesson.

- See you tomorrow.

- They're from Emilio's.

You want turkey or ham?
- Turkey.

- I had a feeling.

Listen, about the other night.

I know what it looked like,

running out of here to
go meet with Estelle.

I should have just
told you the truth.

- No, I was out of line.

I overreacted.

I apologize.

- I know the idea of the
store closing is painful,

but I just don't want you
to end up with nothing.

- Well, Estelle said you
gave her a pretty good deal.

- Glad she thinks that.

- She also said you were nice.

- I am nice.

(upbeat guitar music)

(both laughing)

- Very good.

See, it's coming along.

- Maybe I can start a
band in a couple years.

- I'd come see you.

- This has been so much fun.

You have a lot of patience.

- You make it easy.

- Is it my scintillating
personality or my
charming looks?

- Both.

- Are you flirting with me?

- Would it be okay if I was?

- Sure.

- Okay, so I have a proposal.

I propose we give
you our best offer

and we don't talk
about it anymore

until you make up your mind.

- Really?

- Yeah, I am not here
to persuade you, Kate.

This is your decision to make.

But in exchange,

I would like to keep helping
with the Boxing Day party.

- And why would
you wanna do that?

- Because I want to
spend more time with you.

That day seeing you
on the bus was like...

- Like what?

- Like a Christmas
wish come true.

- That was corny.

- I know it's corny, but I like
corny and I really like you.

- I like you too.

And the whole bus thing, Me too.

But Mark...

- I know what you're gonna say.

And let's just put business away

and let's see where this goes.

- We might be doing a little
magical thinking here,

just wishing it
would all go away.

- Well, Christmas is the
time for magic, isn't it?

- I think it is.

(energizing music)

- Yeah, I will have it to
him by the end of next week.

Okay, great.

Thanks.

- Hey.

Can you cover the
Hudson meeting later?

- Sorry, no can do.

I'm off to see Kate.

- Again?
- Yeah.

- Did she agree to the buyout?

- Not exactly.

- So you're trying
to convince her?

- Not exactly.

- What exactly are you doing?

- We agreed not to talk
about business for a while.

- And you don't see
the flaw in that plan.

- All I know is I'm getting
to know someone amazing.

Look, I gotta go.

All right, see you later.

Have a good day!

- What if we-

- Well, our deal lasts
until you've made a decision

and you're still thinking.

Right?

- Right.

- So I think we should
hang out somewhere

that's not this shop.

- Like a date?

- Not like a date.

A date.

I've got tomorrow off.

And if you could get Josie
to cover for a few hours,

I propose we go and do
every Christmassy thing

we can think of.

- Do you think
that's a good idea?

- I don't know.

I just know I'm having
a really good time

getting to know you.

- Me too.

(upbeat festive music)

Okay, this has officially been

the most Christmassy
day I have ever spent.

Christmas concert in the park.

Ice skating downtown Bellevue.

It's to bad we didn't have
those ugly Christmas sweaters

for that contest they had.

- I know, right?

I have some at home

that definitely would've
been contenders.

- So what's next?

- Well, this was advertised
as a Christmas market.

- Oh, like the ones in Europe?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I think this one's
a little dinky, though,

to be compared to those.

- I don't care.

I love it.

This has been a perfect date.

- Well, let's make
it even more perfect.

How about I buy you
a cup of hot cocoa?

- Sure.

- Hey, you.

- Hey.

I finally found some time
to come check out your shop.

This place is awesome.

- Well, your timing
is excellent.

I wanna show you what
I picked for your mom

and you can tell me if
I'm on the right track.

- Okay.

- Just let me deal with
these customers first.

- Take your time.

I'll look around.

♪ Hark the Herald Angels sing ♪

♪ Glory to the newborn king ♪

- This has been amazing, Mark.

Thank you.

I'm usually so
busy at Christmas,

I never get to do
any of these things.

- I guess you just need to find

the right person to do it with.

- So where did young Mark

get his extreme
love for Christmas?

- Ah, the Mark story.

- Yep, from the beginning.

Chapter one.

- Well, I was born
in a small log cabin.

- Just the highlights.

- It's not much to tell.

I grew up in a small
town in California

and my parents still live there.

I have one sister,
she's a doctor.

- Wow, impressive.

- And she has my niece
who I spoil completely.

- As any good uncle should.

Are you gonna see
them for Christmas?

- No, because of this
deal, I have to...

- To work.

- Yeah.

- How did you ever start
working for someone like Klein?

- Klein's the best
company in the state.

He's not all that bad, Kate.

- You couldn't tell that by me.

- He's not.

Klein, he started from the
bottom working construction

for this builder here in town.

And apparently the guy
took him under his wing

and mentored him and he
tries to do the same for us.

- So he is a good boss.

- He treats his staff well

and never cuts corners
when it comes to quality.

- And what about what he's
doing to Founder Square?

- The project's gonna
bring a lot of money

into the community.

Things change, Kate.

Old buildings come
down, new ones go up.

It doesn't mean
you have to lose.

- I thought you weren't
gonna try and persuade me.

- You're right.

You're right.

Yeah, okay.

Forget about it for now and
we'll go back to the date.

I have a few more
surprises in store.

- What else could you
possibly have up your sleeve?

- The Ladies Victorian Society

is doing a popcorn
stringing demonstration.

- Oh, well, by all means,
we can't miss that.

- Nope.

(Mark chuckling)

- My mom is gonna love this.

This is the fastest that
I've ever found her gifts.

- Well, you should've been
coming here all along.

Ta-da!

- You have great taste
in gifts and music

and hot dogs, evidently.

See you tonight.

(gentle music)

- Isn't it magical,
all the lights?

- Yeah.

- Oh look, Mr. Doug always
does something so nice.

- Oh, do you mind?

My hands are cold.

- Well, we can't have that.

(gentle music)

Some of my favorite memories

are on the street
at Christmas time.

- Really?

- Yeah, my dad always
worked on Christmas.

So my mom and I would come down

and he'd take some
time away from the shop

and we'd walk the streets and
look at the lights together.

It always made me feel
so, I don't know, safe.

- Something tells me
you take after your dad.

- Yeah, I guess I do.

Or at least I'd like to.

He's always been my rock.

And after he had a
heart attack last year,

I just want him
to be proud of me.

- I can't imagine anyone not
being proud of you, Kate.

(gentle music)

- Oh, sorry.

I was just putting stuff
away so I can close up.

- Is it that late?

Josie, I'm so sorry.

- It's no problem.

- I should go.

- Are you sure you
don't wanna come in?

We have cookies.
- Josie.

- No, no.

I'm good.

Thank you for the
amazing day, Kate.

- I had an amazing time.

- Me too.

(gentle music)

- You still think
he's the enemy?

- Let's lock up.

- Oh, come on.
I want the details.

(upbeat guitar music)

(upbeat guitar music)

I did it!

I actually got through
the whole thing.

Ugh, I'm bummed though.

Only two more lessons left.

- Really, I thought we had more.

- We did, but I
have so many errands

I need to run before next week.

It's almost Christmas.

So see you soon.

- Wait.

Josie.

I'll see you next time.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

- Merry Christmas.

Hi, Mr. Doug.

- Kate, Josie.

I have some bad news.

I've decided to take the deal.

- But I thought-

- I know and I'm sorry, but
the wife and I wanna retire.

And when Klein increased their
offer, we couldn't say no.

- I understand.

- It doesn't mean you
should stop fighting, Kate.

Although I have to tell you,

Martin and Gwen are signing
too, and I think Larry.

- I appreciate you
coming in to tell me.

- I'll definitely be here
for the party, though.

I've been looking
forward to it all year.

(gentle music)

(phone ringing)

- Got a minute?

- Rick, look at this.

When Mr. Doug sent
in his contracts,

he also sent in
these old blueprints

from when Founder
Square was built.

- Cool.

- Mark, about Founder Square.

How's it going with
the last holdouts?

- We have all but one, sir.

I'm just giving her a
little bit more time

to think about it.

- Unfortunately, time is up.

Looks like we're
moving up the deadline

for compliance to the 26th.

- What?

- Our investors are eager
to get the project going

and they need a firm
commitment by then

to get paperwork in
before the new year.

I trust you two will
make this happen?

- Mr. Klein, that's Christmas.

The last Christmas these
shops will ever have.

You told them the
end of the year.

- I understand that, Mark.

They can stay open until
midnight on the 25th.

That should get them all
their Christmas sales.

- But some of them
have plans on the 26th.

If we could just
maybe extend the-

- Mark, I need you
to get this done.

Can you or do I need to turn
it over to someone else?

- I'll handle it.

- Knew I can count on you.

- It is lousy, but...

- It's really gonna
take a Christmas miracle

to save her shop now.

- Well, they haven't
called to fight yet,

so I am not gonna cry.

- Maybe we should.

Maybe it'll make us
both feel better.

- What's wrong?

Is it the store?

- No.

I mean, yes, but it's also Paul.

I'm not sure what
to do about him.

- Why, what happened?

- I really like him and
I think he likes me.

- So what's the problem?

- I had a feeling he was gonna
ask me out the other night,

but then he didn't.

Maybe he's not sure
how I feel about him.

I was gonna tell him,
but then I didn't.

- Well, that could
go on forever.

- I know.

I should just go over
there and tell him, right?

- Absolutely.

- And you should do
the same with Mark.

- I kind of already did.

- I knew it.

- But it's complicated, Josie.

Like as much as we
don't talk about it,

this thing with the
store is not going away.

And we are never
gonna agree on that.

- You're the one always talking
about Christmas miracles.

Maybe one will turn up.

(footsteps tapping)

- Room is right there.

(cheerful music continues)

(somber music)

(somber music)

(doorbell chiming)

(somber music)

- Happy holidays.

Hey, wasn't expecting
to see you today.

We had a huge class of kids,
not wearing my elf costume-

- Do you have a minute to talk?

- Sure.

Oh, I got you a
little something.

(somber music)

- Can we go outside?

- Okay.

(somber music)

(somber music continues)
(doorbell chiming)

What is it?

- The deadline has moved.

All businesses need
to be out by the 25th.

- On Christmas.

- Kate, if you don't sign,

they'll withdraw the offer and
they'll just force you out.

- You mean you'll force me out.

You are a part of
them, aren't you?

I guess I should have faced
reality a lot sooner than this.

- And maybe that's my fault.

Maybe I should have pushed
harder, but I didn't want to-

- To break our deal.

Let's just not talk about
it and maybe it'll go away.

- Look Kate, the day we
met, it was like a dream.

- But I think it's
time to wake up.

Look, I appreciate you coming
to tell me in person, but-

- Kate, please don't do this.

- I think you should go.

- We can't even have
our Boxing Day party.

- I know.

I have to go tell my dad
there's no last minute reprieve.

- He'll understand, Kate.

Your dad adores you and he
knows how hard you fought.

I'll watch the store
until you get back.

- Thanks, Josie.

Wait, don't you have
a lesson with Paul?

- I was going to.

- And?

- I saw him with
that girl again.

They seemed pretty familiar.

I don't know.

- Josie, shouldn't you at
least find out who she is?

You're the one always
telling me to take a chance.

Listen to your own sage advice.

- Come here.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

(phone ringing)

- Hey, you've reached Kate Snow.

Have a Merry Christmas
and leave me a message.

(phone beeps)

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

(car rumbling)

(gentle music)

Thank you.

- I heard the car, but I
didn't think it could be you.

- I decided to come early.

How's dad doing?

- He's all right, just
relaxing right now.

I missed you.

- I missed you too.

(door creaking open)

- Sweetie, let me get your coat.

- Thanks, mom.

- Hot cocoa?
- Yeah.

Thank you.

- I thought I heard your voice.

- Dad.

- Oh, what, is it
Christmas already?

- No, I just came early.

- Good, you had me
worried for a second.

- Mom says you're feeling good,

eating right like
you're supposed to?

- Yes, Dr. Kate.

I'm all good.

A little older, a little
wiser, a little more debonair.

So how's everything
in the store?

- Well, that's actually
why I came up early.

I wanted to talk
to you about it.

I couldn't get Klein
to change their minds.

Everybody has to be
out by Christmas Day

and they take over the
property on the 26th.

I'm so sorry, dad.

- Oh honey, don't cry.

And don't apologize.

It's the march of progress.

- I tried.

I tried to keep it going
for as long as I could.

I thought maybe, I don't know.

Maybe I could save it.

- Do you know how
proud I am of you?

I love how much you love the
store and how you took it over

and kept it going
when I got sick.

But I'm okay letting it go now.

- You're just saying that.
- No, no.

Honestly, honey, I'm not upset.

It was my life for a
long time and I loved it.

But I'm happy being
here with your mom now,

and I'm happy with
whatever you want to do.

If you want to find another
location, that works.

And if you want to pursue some
other dreams, that works too.

The most important
thing to me and your mom

is you do what makes you happy.

- I love you, dad.

- I love you too, sweetheart.

You're my greatest
treasure from the heart.

(both laughing softly)

- Hot cocoa.

- Yes, please.

Thank you, darling.

- Thanks, mom.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

- It's getting late.

I'm beat.

- I think this is the last
of it, except for Kate's.

- Josie called.

She said that Kate signed.

I just gotta go to the shop
in the morning and get it.

- Do you want me to do it?

- No, no, I'll do it.

She already thinks I'm a jerk.

I don't want her thinking
I'm a coward too.

- I'm sorry that
didn't work out better.

- Yeah, me too.

(Mark exhales)

(gentle music)

- Josie!

Are you coming to your lesson?

- Actually, I have to go run out

and get some Christmas presents.

Can we skip tonight?

- Yeah, sure, of course.

- Thanks.

Sorry, I just have
so much going on

with the shop closing right now.

- Wait.

I'll see you tomorrow?

(gentle music)

- [Parent] I thought
you were going to bed.

- I will soon.

This is so good.

Are you ever gonna tell me
how you make it so tasty?

- Mm, sure.

It's made with love.

- You sound like a commercial.

(both chuckling)

- So what's going on, hmm?

Besides the shop.

- What do you mean?

I met someone.

His name is Mark.

- Oh, that's wonderful, honey.

- And he works for
the Klein company.

I don't know, I thought...

I thought maybe he could
be someone special.

- So you have feelings for him?

- Yeah.

- And he for you?

- I think so.

- Then don't let his
job define who he is

or what is possible
for the two of you.

- He put me out of business.

- So he's a bad man?

- No.

No, he's not.

He thinks the new
development will bring jobs

and a lot to the community.

- Yeah, I am beginning
to see the problem.

Look, honey, if
you like this Mark

and you really think
that he could be the one,

then don't let Klein or
the shop stand in your way.

Sometimes you only get one
chance to grab that brass ring.

- Thanks, mom.

- Aw, anytime.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

(gentle music continues)

- Here you go, Merry Christmas.

(doorbell chiming)

- Hi, Josie.

- Oh, hey.

I have those papers for you.

- Thanks.

Is Kate here?

- No, she went to go
visit her parents.

- So is she gonna
find a new space?

- I don't know, she didn't say.

What are they turning
this place into, anyway?

- Mixed use, high
tech kind of space.

- So much for happy
Hollywood endings.

You forgot something
the other day.

- I'm sorry about all this.

It really is a wonderful shop.

- Hey, don't forget we have
that meeting with Klein later.

What are you working on?

- Hopefully a Christmas miracle.

(cheerful music)

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

- How did shopping go, you
find everything you needed?

- What?

Oh, yeah, I did.

- You seem stressed.
Are you okay?

- Yeah, I'm just really
overwhelmed with everything.

- I can imagine.

I was wondering if

maybe you wanted to go out
sometime?

- Aren't you dating that girl?

I saw you with her
the other night.

- Who?
No, I'm am not dating her.

She's my kid sister.

- Oh.

- Yeah.

She's visiting from
California for the holidays.

- She's your sister?

- Yeah.

- So you're asking me out?

- Yeah, I mean, I was trying to.

- I'd love to.

(cheerful music)

- Mm.

Your mom is a fantastic baker.

- I made some of those.

(doorbell chiming)

- Thank you.

- Uh, look who's here.

- I guess I better
go talk to him.

I didn't think I'd see you here.

- Mark, we're supposed to
be on our way to a meeting.

- I know, sir.

I just really thought that
you'd want to see this place.

This is Kate Snow.

She runs this business.

Kate, Mr. Klein.

- Young lady.

Mark, why do I need
to see this place?

- Well, I was doing some
research and it turns out

that this is the oldest
surviving example

of a building by A. B. Stoddard.

- What?

You're kidding.

- No.

- Rick, I need a flashlight.

- What's going on?

- I thought about what you said.

- What I said.

- Yeah.

I just...

I realized that I always
thought that this project

was a done deal and
I never considered

that there could
be any compromises.

So I'm trying to find one.

Remember when I told you that
Mr. Klein worked for a builder

when he first started out?

- The one who took
him under his wing.

- Right, A. B. Stoddard.

Well, I was checking
out some old blueprints

and guess who built
this building?

- Wait, are you saying

this building is
historic or something?

Because I already
checked all that.

- Not historical, per
se, but meaningful.

Especially to Mr. Klein.

- Well, I have to come
back with proper tools,

but there's no doubt about it.

This is a Stoddard.

Built to last.

- Yep, built in his
first year of business.

And it's a shame we
have to tear it down.

- Okay, Mark.

I know a pitch when I hear one.

What are you proposing?

- Well, I did happen to
check in with the architect

and there is a way to
incorporate this shop as is

into the existing plans.

I know it might be
a little more money.

- Are you trying
to manipulate me?

- No, I would
never do that, sir.

- Well, whatever you
are doing, it worked.

This building is too
solid to tear down.

- And since Ms. Snow
is such a good tenant,

I thought that maybe we could...

- Sign her to a lease?

Ms. Snow?

- Yes, sir.

- I would like to
create a display

on the works of A.B. Stoddard.

Would you have room in your
shop for something like that?

- I can make some
space right now, Josie.

- He could have the
whole back corner.

- Well, then I guess
we have a deal.

Mark, Rick, we need to
get to that meeting.

- What just happened?

Mark, wait!

Mark!

- Can I have a minute?

- We will wait in the car.

- Thanks.

- I can't believe
you just did that.

You could have lost your job.

- I would do anything
for you, Kate.

These last few days without
you have shown me that.

I've (stutters)

I've really missed you.

- I've missed you, too.

My mom said that if I
thought you were the one,

I shouldn't let anything
stand in my way.

- And do you think
that I'm the one?

- I do.

- By the way, I loved
your Christmas present.

In fact,

I got you the same thing.

- The bus?

- The mistletoe.

(cheerful music)

(cheerful music continues)

- Real hardwood,
that was the secret.

- So, did your dad
like your song?

- He loved it.

Said I'm a pro in the making.

And it's all because of you.

(gentle music)

- By the way...

(cheerful music)

It's all yours.

- No, I can't take that.

That's way too valuable.

I could buy it.

If you take installments?

- Okay.

I guess I could sell
it to you for 100 bucks

and dinner next week.

- Mm, I accept.

(cheerful music)

- Everybody came.

- Did you have any doubts?

- Mom!

Dad, you made it!

- Hey.

We wouldn't miss
it for the world.

The place looks amazing, honey.

I'm so proud of you.

- Thanks, dad.

Oh, mom, dad, this is Mark.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- So this is Mark.

I have a lot of
questions for you.

(all laughing)

- Oh, Kate, I think it's time.

(Mark clearing throat)

(utensil clinking glass)

- Attention, everyone.

I'd like to make a toast.

I have so many people here

to thank for this
wonderful party.

Mr. Klein, you saved the store

and I thank you so very much.

And to my parents
who began this dream

that I hope to continue
for another 30 years.

To Josie, my best friend
and my sister at heart.

And to everyone here

who's supported me in my
dreams over the years.

To Mark, because,
well, you know why.

Thank you everyone for making
this the best holiday ever

and a Christmas
miracle come true.

- [All] Cheers!

(glasses clinking)

- That was a pretty good
speech for a Christmas elf.

- Meant every word.

- I almost forgot.

I believe that this is yours.
