- Wow, you've been busy.
- Yes.

7
00:00:31,751 --> 00:00:33,094
And you look great.

8
00:00:33,094 --> 00:00:35,880
Thank you.

00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:37,799
Oh, that's where that's been.

10
00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:39,801
Yeah.

11
00:00:39,801 --> 00:00:42,428
That part of my life is over.

12
00:00:42,428 --> 00:00:45,223
Well, we can still
eat the treats.

13
00:00:45,223 --> 00:00:47,892
I mean, these are the
literal fruits of your labor.

14
00:00:47,892 --> 00:00:49,310
Oh, great.

15
00:00:49,310 --> 00:00:54,365
My entire career summed up
in apricot preserves.

16
00:00:54,365 --> 00:00:57,068
Are you gonna be okay
at the house?

17
00:00:57,068 --> 00:00:58,236
I mean, I know
you cleaned the place

18
00:00:58,236 --> 00:00:59,946
from top to bottom last week,

19
00:00:59,946 --> 00:01:01,739
and, you know,
if you're bored--

20
00:01:01,739 --> 00:01:03,574
No. I signed up to volunteer

21
00:01:03,574 --> 00:01:06,244
with the Christmas committee
at the Chamber of Commerce.

22
00:01:06,244 --> 00:01:07,829
Our first meeting
is this morning.

23
00:01:07,829 --> 00:01:09,205
Sounds like a good time.

24
00:01:09,205 --> 00:01:10,715
I'll see you after.

25
00:01:11,701 --> 00:01:12,759
Love you.

26
00:01:12,759 --> 00:01:14,418
Love you too.

The meeting started at 9:00.

36
00:01:40,403 --> 00:01:41,195
Hm.

37
00:01:53,743 --> 00:01:55,793
Oh! Barb?

38
00:01:55,793 --> 00:01:57,053
Hi, I'm Kath.

39
00:01:57,053 --> 00:01:59,380
- It's Barbara, actually.
- Oh.

40
00:01:59,380 --> 00:02:01,007
You know, per your e-mail,
it said

41
00:02:01,007 --> 00:02:02,809
that the meeting
started at 9:00.

42
00:02:02,809 --> 00:02:05,678
Oh, well, it's a loose 9:00.

43
00:02:05,678 --> 00:02:07,638
Oh. Okay.

44
00:02:07,638 --> 00:02:08,648
Okay.

45
00:02:11,225 --> 00:02:13,361
Welcome to my happy place.

46
00:02:15,223 --> 00:02:16,981
- Ho, ho, ho, everybody.
- Hi, Doug.

47
00:02:16,981 --> 00:02:19,567
Start of another season.

48
00:02:19,567 --> 00:02:23,163
Oh, I didn't get the memo about
the ugly Christmas sweaters.

49
00:02:25,834 --> 00:02:27,333
Ugly?

50
00:02:27,333 --> 00:02:29,669
Ugly. W-what do you mean?

51
00:02:30,914 --> 00:02:32,338
Just that, you know,

52
00:02:32,338 --> 00:02:34,415
people sometimes call them
that when, you know,

53
00:02:34,415 --> 00:02:35,791
because they're so festive.

54
00:02:35,791 --> 00:02:38,920
Oh, well, we like to
get into the spirit.

55
00:02:38,920 --> 00:02:40,296
And I made mine.

56
00:02:40,296 --> 00:02:42,390
And it's-it's-it's adorable.

57
00:02:43,834 --> 00:02:45,092
Morning, Kath.

58
00:02:45,092 --> 00:02:47,270
Hi, Jim.

59
00:02:47,270 --> 00:02:49,689
- Hey, Doug.
- Hey, buddy.

60
00:02:52,969 --> 00:02:54,352
What's he doing?

61
00:02:54,352 --> 00:02:56,187
Oh, Jim likes to
get his steps in.

62
00:02:56,187 --> 00:02:57,355
You'll get used to it.

63
00:02:57,355 --> 00:03:00,867
Oh, you guys, this is Barb-ara.

64
00:03:00,867 --> 00:03:02,360
She's a retired accountant.

65
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,821
Barbara Harrison.
Hi.

66
00:03:05,821 --> 00:03:07,348
Yolanda recruited her.

67
00:03:07,348 --> 00:03:08,699
Although I don't know why
because I think we're doing

68
00:03:08,699 --> 00:03:12,703
a great job.
But what do I know?

69
00:03:12,703 --> 00:03:15,831
Oh, Barb-ara, this is
our scrappy little family.

70
00:03:15,831 --> 00:03:17,250
This is Doug and Jim.

71
00:03:17,250 --> 00:03:20,836
And our motto is
"We deploy Christmas joy."

72
00:03:20,836 --> 00:03:22,797
And how do we do that,
you might be asking.

73
00:03:22,797 --> 00:03:26,092
Through Brooklyn's
ABC's of Christmas.

74
00:03:26,092 --> 00:03:27,551
Attract people downtown,

75
00:03:27,551 --> 00:03:30,137
boost local business,
support our charities.

76
00:03:30,137 --> 00:03:31,722
Now I spearhead
general events.

77
00:03:31,722 --> 00:03:34,225
That's Santa's village
and the holiday market,

78
00:03:34,225 --> 00:03:35,559
both going up this weekend.

79
00:03:35,559 --> 00:03:37,979
A-and the holiday market,
of course,

80
00:03:37,979 --> 00:03:39,480
boosts businesses,

81
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,659
which as a former marketing guy,
is my area of expertise.

82
00:03:42,659 --> 00:03:44,735
And I head up
charities which include

83
00:03:44,735 --> 00:03:47,989
trolley caroling
and our grand finale,

84
00:03:47,989 --> 00:03:49,791
Brooklyn's Christmas Ball.

85
00:03:49,791 --> 00:03:51,993
Anyway, I like to
start off the season

86
00:03:51,993 --> 00:03:53,536
with a team building activity

87
00:03:53,536 --> 00:03:55,129
where we all
volunteer as a group.

88
00:03:55,129 --> 00:03:58,249
So, this year we're going to
make turkey supper sandwiches

89
00:03:58,249 --> 00:03:59,583
at a local nursing home.

90
00:03:59,583 --> 00:04:01,669
I love turkey
supper sandwiches, yum.

91
00:04:01,669 --> 00:04:04,130
Me too,
nothing kicks off the season

92
00:04:04,130 --> 00:04:05,765
than a little bit of teamwork.

93
00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:11,938
Okay, well, great.

94
00:04:11,938 --> 00:04:13,398
I will be there.

95
00:04:15,443 --> 00:04:17,393
So really, between
the three of us,

96
00:04:17,393 --> 00:04:19,562
there's nothing that
we don't know about

97
00:04:19,562 --> 00:04:21,063
Christmas in Brooklyn,
and we really are...

98
00:04:21,063 --> 00:04:22,440
Yolanda?

99
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,026
How is my favorite
Christmas committee?

100
00:04:25,026 --> 00:04:26,569
You must be Barbara Harrison.

101
00:04:26,569 --> 00:04:28,571
- Guilty as charged.
- Yolanda Sharp.

102
00:04:28,571 --> 00:04:30,114
President of the
Chamber of Commerce.

103
00:04:30,114 --> 00:04:32,533
We are so lucky to have you

104
00:04:32,533 --> 00:04:33,701
on the Christmas committee.

105
00:04:33,701 --> 00:04:37,121
Oh, well, I am so happy
to be here.

106
00:04:37,121 --> 00:04:39,590
Barbara was head of accounting
for Genesis, for how many years?

107
00:04:39,590 --> 00:04:41,959
Well, I'd prefer not to say.

108
00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:44,721
Oh, Kath, do you have
the next year budget outline?

109
00:04:44,721 --> 00:04:46,714
I was expecting it on my desk
this morning.

110
00:04:46,714 --> 00:04:49,884
Oh, I'm sorry, I thought
you said that you...

111
00:04:49,884 --> 00:04:53,637
- I will get it to you ASAP.
- Thank you.

112
00:04:53,637 --> 00:04:55,231
Maybe we could teach
Kath a thing or two

113
00:04:55,231 --> 00:04:57,191
about the business world.

114
00:04:57,191 --> 00:04:59,527
Nice meeting you.

115
00:05:01,489 --> 00:05:03,397
Kath, her e-mail said

116
00:05:03,397 --> 00:05:05,066
that budgets weren't
due until next week.

117
00:05:05,066 --> 00:05:07,818
Yes, I know that,
but I couldn't tell her that.

118
00:05:07,818 --> 00:05:08,944
Why not?

119
00:05:08,944 --> 00:05:10,237
Because she's the boss.

120
00:05:10,237 --> 00:05:13,157
And now, I have to make a budget
ASAP.

121
00:05:13,157 --> 00:05:14,325
Well, I'd be happy
to spearhead it,

122
00:05:14,325 --> 00:05:16,911
it is my area of expertise.

123
00:05:16,911 --> 00:05:18,755
All right, then.

124
00:05:18,755 --> 00:05:21,248
- That'd be a big help.
- What is this?

125
00:05:21,248 --> 00:05:22,675
Those are my receipts
from last year.

126
00:05:23,511 --> 00:05:25,711
I've never met anyone

127
00:05:25,711 --> 00:05:27,922
who keeps
their business receipts

128
00:05:27,922 --> 00:05:29,632
in an actual shoe box.

129
00:05:29,632 --> 00:05:32,009
Well, they're in
chronological order,

130
00:05:32,009 --> 00:05:33,269
so try not to shake them.

131
00:05:33,269 --> 00:05:35,471
Oh, no, I'll be very gentle.

132
00:05:35,471 --> 00:05:37,848
Wouldn't want to disrupt
the system.

133
00:05:38,749 --> 00:05:40,476
Really appreciate your help.

134
00:05:40,476 --> 00:05:42,269
Really, you seem to need it.

135
00:05:42,269 --> 00:05:44,864
- Hmm.
- See you tomorrow.

136
00:05:55,067 --> 00:05:56,200
Hey.

137
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,993
Hey, hon.
How was your meeting?

138
00:05:57,993 --> 00:05:59,787
You know, I was used
to things running

139
00:05:59,787 --> 00:06:02,048
in a pretty
orderly fashion at the office.

140
00:06:02,048 --> 00:06:05,418
And it turns out the world
doesn't really work that way.

141
00:06:05,418 --> 00:06:08,170
Some people operate
in pure chaos.

142
00:06:08,170 --> 00:06:11,507
Well, they're lucky they have
you to set them straight.

143
00:06:11,507 --> 00:06:13,217
Uh, new open house?

144
00:06:13,217 --> 00:06:14,552
Yeah. Last one of the year.

145
00:06:14,552 --> 00:06:16,887
And I'm adding a little extra...

146
00:06:18,389 --> 00:06:19,816
Christmas magic to this one.

147
00:06:19,816 --> 00:06:22,226
Oh, that's so nice. Oh!

148
00:06:22,226 --> 00:06:23,644
Uh, Shane is here.

149
00:06:23,644 --> 00:06:25,396
Shane, honey,
everything all right?

150
00:06:25,396 --> 00:06:26,981
I'm okay. Yeah. Ugh...

151
00:06:26,981 --> 00:06:29,066
I got some repairs
to do at the theater,

152
00:06:29,066 --> 00:06:32,319
so I figured I could look at
some of granddad's old tools.

153
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:33,830
Do you know how to use
any of those?

154
00:06:33,830 --> 00:06:36,073
That's what YouTube
is there for, mom.

155
00:06:36,073 --> 00:06:38,960
You know, that's my fault.
I mean, I sell houses.

156
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,579
I don't fix them. I never taught
you and your brother.

157
00:06:41,579 --> 00:06:44,415
It's okay. So, you guys
have got it all figured out.

158
00:06:44,415 --> 00:06:46,342
I mean, slow season
in real estate,

159
00:06:46,342 --> 00:06:48,252
can enjoy time with family.

160
00:06:48,252 --> 00:06:49,670
But you know what?

161
00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:52,089
I've got a staple gun
and a dream.

162
00:06:52,089 --> 00:06:55,759
But you could always
get your real estate license.

163
00:06:55,759 --> 00:06:59,054
- Mom, I'm not a businessy guy.
- I know.

164
00:06:59,054 --> 00:07:01,724
So, you think I need help
moving more houses?

165
00:07:01,724 --> 00:07:06,270
Couldn't hurt. You know that
our son Shane is very charming.

166
00:07:06,270 --> 00:07:10,608
Yeah, dad, The Sunday Times did
say my charisma is infectious.

167
00:07:10,608 --> 00:07:12,109
We'll never forget that review.

168
00:07:12,109 --> 00:07:14,445
Well, you know, infectious
can be a bad thing.

169
00:07:14,445 --> 00:07:16,280
I mean, diseases are infectious.

170
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,032
- Ohh!
- He's teasing you.

171
00:07:18,032 --> 00:07:20,618
- Stop. You were wonderful.
- Thank you.

172
00:07:20,618 --> 00:07:23,787
Go staple
whatever it is you staple.

173
00:07:23,787 --> 00:07:26,123
I will see you both Friday
for dinner.

174
00:07:26,123 --> 00:07:28,209
Okay. Love you.

175
00:07:28,209 --> 00:07:29,594
Looking forward to it.

176
00:07:32,296 --> 00:07:33,723
I think he's lonely.

177
00:07:34,642 --> 00:07:36,634
Oh, no, not this again.

178
00:07:36,634 --> 00:07:38,144
What, did you hear
all that stuff about

179
00:07:38,144 --> 00:07:39,470
family and Christmas?

180
00:07:39,470 --> 00:07:40,804
I know you're retired

181
00:07:40,804 --> 00:07:42,640
and you're itching
for a project,

182
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,809
but Shane is not your project.

183
00:07:45,809 --> 00:07:48,738
Who said anything about
a project?

184
00:07:51,159 --> 00:07:54,068
<i>Do you know someone
who is unlucky in love?</i>

185
00:07:54,068 --> 00:07:56,487
<i>Merry Matchmaker allows friends
and families</i>

186
00:07:56,487 --> 00:07:58,322
<i>to play matchmaker.</i>

187
00:07:58,322 --> 00:07:59,999
<i>Here are today's matches.</i>

188
00:08:10,887 --> 00:08:14,171
Mom, hi, I'm so sorry I'm late.
Works been crazy.

189
00:08:14,171 --> 00:08:15,506
That's okay, honey.

190
00:08:15,506 --> 00:08:16,873
- Thanks for coming to get me.
- Hi.

191
00:08:16,873 --> 00:08:18,926
I should get the van
out of the shop next week

192
00:08:18,926 --> 00:08:21,062
and then maybe we can go wrangle
ourselves at Christmas tree.

193
00:08:21,062 --> 00:08:23,681
Yeah, yeah, I just have
to check my schedule,

194
00:08:23,681 --> 00:08:25,266
but I'm sure I can
make that work.

195
00:08:25,266 --> 00:08:26,692
Oh, I have had such a day.

196
00:08:26,692 --> 00:08:27,935
There's a new woman on the

197
00:08:27,935 --> 00:08:30,104
Christmas committee,
an accountant.

198
00:08:30,104 --> 00:08:33,816
And she is such a piece of work.
And you know me.

199
00:08:33,816 --> 00:08:35,442
- I get along with everybody.
- Mm-hmm.

200
00:08:35,442 --> 00:08:36,610
But there's just
something about her that

201
00:08:36,610 --> 00:08:38,454
really busted my biscuits.

202
00:08:38,454 --> 00:08:40,030
But you would have been
very proud of me.

203
00:08:40,030 --> 00:08:42,700
I stayed non-reactive and I
killed her with kindness.

204
00:08:42,700 --> 00:08:44,660
I am proud of you.

205
00:08:44,660 --> 00:08:46,537
Oh, you got a match?

206
00:08:46,537 --> 00:08:48,080
A what? A match?

207
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,215
Honey, remember

208
00:08:49,215 --> 00:08:51,792
I signed you up for
that matchmaker app?

209
00:08:51,792 --> 00:08:53,877
Well, I said I wasn't
interested.

210
00:08:53,877 --> 00:08:55,838
Sweetheart, wouldn't you like
some holiday romance?

211
00:08:55,838 --> 00:08:57,723
I don't want you to be lonely
at Christmas.

212
00:08:57,723 --> 00:09:00,718
I'm not lonely. I have friends.
I have you.

213
00:09:00,718 --> 00:09:03,220
Plus, it's okay to be
by yourself sometimes.

214
00:09:03,220 --> 00:09:06,691
- Okay. Mm-mm.
- Okay, great. This yours?

215
00:09:06,691 --> 00:09:08,693
You will not hear another word
out of me.

216
00:09:08,693 --> 00:09:10,394
- What about this guy?
- No.

217
00:09:14,266 --> 00:09:17,901
This committee has too many
matching outfits.

218
00:09:17,901 --> 00:09:20,154
Well, give them a chance.

219
00:09:20,154 --> 00:09:21,205
They might surprise you.

220
00:09:22,775 --> 00:09:24,575
Oh, what have you here?

221
00:09:24,575 --> 00:09:26,702
This is a jolly julep.

222
00:09:26,702 --> 00:09:28,579
- Hmm...
- Uh, wait.

223
00:09:28,579 --> 00:09:30,706
Forgot the garnish.

224
00:09:30,706 --> 00:09:33,417
Oh, you cannot forget that.

225
00:09:37,665 --> 00:09:40,090
- Mhm...
- What do you think?

226
00:09:40,090 --> 00:09:41,133
Delicious.

227
00:09:42,217 --> 00:09:43,719
Oh, boy.

228
00:09:43,719 --> 00:09:45,271
An e-mail from Kath.

229
00:09:45,271 --> 00:09:47,473
"Hey committee fam,

230
00:09:47,473 --> 00:09:49,516
this is an extra
special reminder

231
00:09:49,516 --> 00:09:50,976
for everyone to show up
on time tomorrow

232
00:09:50,976 --> 00:09:53,395
for turkey supper,
sandwiches..."

233
00:09:53,395 --> 00:09:55,064
Whatever those are.

234
00:09:55,064 --> 00:09:58,408
"Wouldn't want anyone to
stress out about punctuality."

235
00:10:02,114 --> 00:10:06,283
So what exactly is a turkey
supper sandwich?

236
00:10:06,283 --> 00:10:09,036
Turkey supper in a sandwich.

237
00:10:09,036 --> 00:10:10,913
It's a big hit
with our local seniors.

238
00:10:10,913 --> 00:10:12,915
Ahh...

239
00:10:12,915 --> 00:10:14,291
Oh.

240
00:10:14,291 --> 00:10:15,751
Just remembered.

241
00:10:15,751 --> 00:10:18,337
I brought festive headbands

242
00:10:18,337 --> 00:10:21,590
for you and for you and you.

243
00:10:21,590 --> 00:10:23,342
Ah, no, I'm not wearing that.

244
00:10:23,342 --> 00:10:24,435
Oh, don't be so uptight.

245
00:10:24,435 --> 00:10:26,312
I am not uptight.

246
00:10:26,312 --> 00:10:28,022
Oooh. Suit yourself.

247
00:10:31,093 --> 00:10:32,692
Hm.

248
00:10:32,692 --> 00:10:34,728
Oh, wow-wow-wow what are you
doing? That's a family recipe.

249
00:10:34,728 --> 00:10:36,438
- I made that.
- It's just a bit of salt.

250
00:10:36,438 --> 00:10:38,524
Are you trying to give
everybody high blood pressure?

251
00:10:38,524 --> 00:10:40,526
Or maybe make the food
taste good.

252
00:10:40,526 --> 00:10:42,444
Oh, it tastes good.
Give me that.

253
00:10:42,444 --> 00:10:44,196
- No. No.
- Yes. Yes.

254
00:10:44,196 --> 00:10:45,498
- No.
- Yes.

255
00:10:47,491 --> 00:10:49,001
That's a bad omen.

256
00:10:51,321 --> 00:10:53,956
Do we really have to serve
all these in less than an hour?

257
00:10:53,956 --> 00:10:56,500
- That's not much time.
- Oh, we'll get it done.

258
00:10:56,500 --> 00:10:57,918
Oh, I have an idea.

259
00:10:57,918 --> 00:10:59,795
What about a little friendly
competition?

260
00:10:59,795 --> 00:11:03,099
Me and Doug
versus you and Jim?

261
00:11:03,099 --> 00:11:05,008
Sure. Okay.

262
00:11:05,008 --> 00:11:09,346
Whoever makes the most
sandwiches before 5:00, wins.

263
00:11:09,346 --> 00:11:10,690
You're on.

264
00:11:11,592 --> 00:11:12,808
And go!

265
00:11:17,615 --> 00:11:19,857
<i>♪ Good King Wenceslas
looked out ♪</i>

266
00:11:19,857 --> 00:11:21,483
<i>♪ On the Feast of Stephen ♪</i>

267
00:11:21,483 --> 00:11:23,619
<i>♪ Our sandwich are
almost done ♪</i>

268
00:11:23,619 --> 00:11:25,121
<i>♪ Then I will be even ♪</i>

269
00:11:25,121 --> 00:11:27,072
Okay, well, obviously
those aren't the words.

270
00:11:27,072 --> 00:11:28,699
That's not even
how the song goes.

271
00:11:28,699 --> 00:11:29,783
Oh, who cares?

272
00:11:29,783 --> 00:11:31,452
Well, maybe the Good King.

273
00:11:31,452 --> 00:11:33,537
The Good King Wencelas?

274
00:11:33,537 --> 00:11:36,749
- Wenceslas.
- Wenceslas.

275
00:11:36,749 --> 00:11:38,709
We're going to win, Jim.

276
00:11:38,709 --> 00:11:41,378
Benefit of an organized system.

277
00:11:41,378 --> 00:11:43,255
That's the spirit.

278
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,979
- Time's up.
- Oh.

279
00:11:51,548 --> 00:11:53,891
We won.

280
00:11:53,891 --> 00:11:56,894
Well, most importantly, we got
all the sandwiches made.

281
00:11:56,894 --> 00:11:58,729
Oh, people are probably
getting seated by now.

282
00:11:58,729 --> 00:12:00,981
- Everybody grab a tray.
- Well, it's only 4:55.

283
00:12:00,981 --> 00:12:02,608
Well, you, of all
people I thought

284
00:12:02,608 --> 00:12:04,118
would appreciate being early.

285
00:12:05,813 --> 00:12:07,997
No, no way.
Doug, you take it.

286
00:12:10,418 --> 00:12:14,420
I got you some bubbly to
celebrate your first big design.

287
00:12:14,420 --> 00:12:16,079
Well, it's not done yet.

288
00:12:16,079 --> 00:12:17,623
Oh, come on, honey,
you gotta celebrate

289
00:12:17,623 --> 00:12:19,833
the little wins along the way.

290
00:12:19,833 --> 00:12:21,919
I don't want to get
too ahead of myself.

291
00:12:21,919 --> 00:12:24,254
Okay, well then I am
celebrating you.

292
00:12:24,254 --> 00:12:27,341
I am so proud of you
for running your own firm.

293
00:12:27,341 --> 00:12:28,675
Co-running.

294
00:12:28,675 --> 00:12:30,844
Okay, can you just take
a compliment?

295
00:12:30,844 --> 00:12:32,638
And I'm, I'm sorry

296
00:12:32,638 --> 00:12:34,273
that I tried to
fix you up earlier.

297
00:12:36,385 --> 00:12:38,185
Thanks.

298
00:12:38,185 --> 00:12:40,938
I'm really overwhelmed with
this project right now.

299
00:12:40,938 --> 00:12:42,940
Though it would break my heart

300
00:12:42,940 --> 00:12:45,150
if you missed out on
meeting the right guy

301
00:12:45,150 --> 00:12:47,119
because it wasn't
the right time.

302
00:12:50,708 --> 00:12:54,117
But I know that you are very
busy with your work right now.

303
00:12:54,117 --> 00:12:57,955
And even if I did find the most
perfect handsome guy

304
00:12:57,955 --> 00:12:59,581
who is exactly right for you,

305
00:12:59,581 --> 00:13:01,792
then I know that you wouldn't be
interested in meeting him.

306
00:13:01,792 --> 00:13:03,803
You're still on the app?

307
00:13:04,872 --> 00:13:06,839
He is so cute.

308
00:13:06,839 --> 00:13:08,924
He's so handsome
and he's funny

309
00:13:08,924 --> 00:13:11,802
and he owns his own
business and he's a Scorpio.

310
00:13:11,802 --> 00:13:13,595
Checks all your boxes.

311
00:13:13,595 --> 00:13:15,981
You think he's perfect for me
and I have to meet him.

312
00:13:15,981 --> 00:13:18,392
Yes. I think you're
going to love him.

313
00:13:18,392 --> 00:13:21,061
And if I do meet him and
he's not perfect for me,

314
00:13:21,061 --> 00:13:23,564
then we can agree that
maybe you're not going to find

315
00:13:23,564 --> 00:13:24,898
Mr. Right on this app

316
00:13:24,898 --> 00:13:27,693
and we can stop
talking about it forever?

317
00:13:27,693 --> 00:13:28,819
Forever is a long time.

318
00:13:28,819 --> 00:13:30,996
- Mom?
- Okay. Yes.

319
00:13:30,996 --> 00:13:33,156
If you meet him and
he's not the right guy,

320
00:13:33,156 --> 00:13:35,617
you will not hear
a peep out of me.

321
00:13:35,617 --> 00:13:36,919
Promise?

322
00:13:38,447 --> 00:13:40,172
Ish. Prom-ish.

323
00:13:45,662 --> 00:13:46,795
Mom, what are you doing?

324
00:13:46,795 --> 00:13:48,672
Oh, just fluffing the tree.

325
00:13:48,672 --> 00:13:49,840
We already fluffed it.

326
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,425
Well, not the way I like it.

327
00:13:51,425 --> 00:13:54,970
Oh, I forgot, nothing is right
until you do it yourself.

328
00:13:54,970 --> 00:13:57,514
- That is not always true.
- Mm-hmm.

329
00:13:57,514 --> 00:14:00,526
You should have seen
the dreadful receipt system

330
00:14:00,526 --> 00:14:01,777
for the Christmas committee.

331
00:14:01,777 --> 00:14:03,854
It was in an actual shoe box.

332
00:14:03,854 --> 00:14:07,983
Thank goodness I've made them
a clear, concise spreadsheet.

333
00:14:07,983 --> 00:14:10,444
Thank goodness. However,
do they survive without it?

334
00:14:10,444 --> 00:14:12,237
You know, I could
take over your payroll.

335
00:14:12,237 --> 00:14:15,532
- It's, it's fine.
- But I know you hate doing it.

336
00:14:15,532 --> 00:14:19,703
Well, I don't think I would love
you being all up in my finances.

337
00:14:19,703 --> 00:14:21,964
- Why? Is everything okay?
- Yes.

338
00:14:22,950 --> 00:14:25,301
I'm glad you're keeping busy.

339
00:14:25,301 --> 00:14:26,877
Speaking of...

340
00:14:26,877 --> 00:14:28,545
I found your dream girl today.

341
00:14:28,545 --> 00:14:31,381
Oh. Is she a retiree on the
Christmas committee?

342
00:14:31,381 --> 00:14:35,311
No, silly. She's your age,
and she's very pretty.

343
00:14:35,311 --> 00:14:37,179
- Okay, mom...
- Just because you think...

344
00:14:37,179 --> 00:14:38,372
we don't have the same taste.

345
00:14:38,372 --> 00:14:40,140
I know we don't have the
same taste.

346
00:14:40,140 --> 00:14:41,892
Well, this one is different.

347
00:14:41,892 --> 00:14:43,769
I don't...
I just have a feeling.

348
00:14:43,769 --> 00:14:45,112
Okay.

349
00:14:45,973 --> 00:14:47,156
Where'd you meet her?

350
00:14:49,076 --> 00:14:51,234
- I found her online.
- Oh, we are done here.

351
00:14:51,234 --> 00:14:55,072
Uh, uh, uh, uh,
I'm just asking you to meet her.

352
00:14:55,072 --> 00:14:56,657
But if you don't
want to honor your

353
00:14:56,657 --> 00:14:58,992
mother's wishes, I understand.

354
00:14:58,992 --> 00:15:00,786
Okay, we don't have to
go straight for the

355
00:15:00,786 --> 00:15:02,079
guilt trip. Mom, please.

356
00:15:02,079 --> 00:15:04,289
Look, I know I wasn't
around as much

357
00:15:04,289 --> 00:15:06,959
when you were a little kid.
I was working all the time.

358
00:15:06,959 --> 00:15:09,086
I, I just want to
make it up to you.

359
00:15:09,086 --> 00:15:11,338
Be more involved in your life.

360
00:15:11,338 --> 00:15:12,923
Okay, mom.

361
00:15:12,923 --> 00:15:15,717
No hard feelings, okay?

362
00:15:15,717 --> 00:15:18,428
Meet her please...

363
00:15:18,428 --> 00:15:20,263
for me.

364
00:15:24,845 --> 00:15:26,946
- You know you want to.
- I don't.

365
00:15:31,869 --> 00:15:33,610
Hey, Danielle,
I just emailed you

366
00:15:33,610 --> 00:15:36,238
a couple mock ups of the design.
Let me know what you think.

367
00:15:36,238 --> 00:15:38,240
I have to go to a drinks thing

368
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,826
with some guy my mom
set me up with.

369
00:15:40,826 --> 00:15:42,077
Knowing her, he won't be my type

370
00:15:42,077 --> 00:15:44,121
at all,
but I'll suffer through it.

371
00:15:44,121 --> 00:15:45,914
I don't think it'll last more
than an hour.

372
00:15:45,914 --> 00:15:47,216
Wish me luck.

373
00:15:49,870 --> 00:15:51,220
You must be Lauren.

374
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,590
- You're Shane.
- Yeah.

375
00:15:55,590 --> 00:15:57,801
Only an hour, huh? I guess
I better make it count.

376
00:15:57,801 --> 00:15:59,645
I'm sorry. I didn't...

377
00:15:59,645 --> 00:16:01,063
Don't worry about it.

378
00:16:04,391 --> 00:16:05,359
Thank you.

379
00:16:08,847 --> 00:16:10,272
Okay, so it was
a sold out crowd

380
00:16:10,272 --> 00:16:13,233
and we had tested this yellow
brick road like,

381
00:16:13,233 --> 00:16:14,410
I don't know, a dozen times.

382
00:16:14,410 --> 00:16:16,737
But of course,
on opening night,

383
00:16:16,737 --> 00:16:18,822
it decides not to rotate.

384
00:16:18,822 --> 00:16:20,115
So what did you do?

385
00:16:20,115 --> 00:16:21,575
Pretend that was part
of the plan.

386
00:16:21,575 --> 00:16:23,910
Well, hiring an improv troupe
comes in handy.

387
00:16:26,163 --> 00:16:28,165
So, what show do you have next?

388
00:16:28,165 --> 00:16:30,751
Uh, we're actually launching
a holiday improv show.

389
00:16:30,751 --> 00:16:33,837
But after that, I'm...

390
00:16:33,837 --> 00:16:35,505
planning on
selling the theater.

391
00:16:35,505 --> 00:16:38,675
What? But it seems like
you love performing.

392
00:16:38,675 --> 00:16:42,095
Performing, yes. Payroll,
building maintenance, sales...

393
00:16:42,095 --> 00:16:45,140
- Hard no.
- Yeah.

394
00:16:45,140 --> 00:16:47,184
You own your own business, right?

395
00:16:47,184 --> 00:16:49,519
I co-own it with
my best friend,

396
00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:52,564
but I'm definitely more
of the details person.

397
00:16:52,564 --> 00:16:54,399
She's the dreamer.

398
00:16:54,399 --> 00:16:56,702
What brought you to
architecture?

399
00:16:56,702 --> 00:16:58,820
I love the permanence of it.

400
00:16:58,820 --> 00:17:01,457
Some buildings have stood for
thousands of years,

401
00:17:01,457 --> 00:17:04,076
way outlasted the people
who built them.

402
00:17:04,076 --> 00:17:05,327
You want to leave your mark on
the world?

403
00:17:05,327 --> 00:17:06,937
Yeah. And a building
sticks around,

404
00:17:06,937 --> 00:17:09,706
which is more than I could say
for some people in my life.

405
00:17:09,706 --> 00:17:11,124
Oh.

406
00:17:11,124 --> 00:17:14,336
Yeah, um...
my dad left when I was little,

407
00:17:14,336 --> 00:17:17,380
but I'm gonna need something
stronger for that story.

408
00:17:19,299 --> 00:17:22,385
You know, if you need any work
done on the theater,

409
00:17:22,385 --> 00:17:24,554
I could recommend some
really good contractors.

410
00:17:24,554 --> 00:17:26,732
Are you gonna try to
solve all my problems

411
00:17:26,732 --> 00:17:28,192
in the first hour we've met?

412
00:17:29,987 --> 00:17:32,437
- I'm a people pleaser.
- Hmm.

413
00:17:32,437 --> 00:17:35,065
And let me guess, you also have
a hard time saying

414
00:17:35,065 --> 00:17:36,149
no to your mom.

415
00:17:36,149 --> 00:17:38,318
Ugh! Yeah, this app thing.

416
00:17:38,318 --> 00:17:40,445
I don't know why she thinks

417
00:17:40,445 --> 00:17:43,999
she's going to find my dream guy
on an app for parents.

418
00:17:43,999 --> 00:17:45,200
No offense to present company.

419
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,410
- You seem cool.
- I get it.

420
00:17:47,410 --> 00:17:49,621
If you knew my mom, she thinks
she always knows best.

421
00:17:49,621 --> 00:17:51,757
Sounds like our moms
have a lot in common.

422
00:17:51,757 --> 00:17:54,167
And you know we're never gonna
hear the end of it, right?

423
00:17:54,167 --> 00:17:55,710
Ugh, you think so?

424
00:17:55,710 --> 00:17:58,088
I have an insane couple of weeks
before Christmas.

425
00:17:58,088 --> 00:18:00,099
I cannot keep
fending off suitors.

426
00:18:04,754 --> 00:18:06,930
I have a crazy idea.

427
00:18:06,930 --> 00:18:10,100
We both need our moms off our
case until Christmas, right?

428
00:18:10,100 --> 00:18:12,769
Yeah, if that's even possible.

429
00:18:12,769 --> 00:18:14,279
Though my mom did promise

430
00:18:14,279 --> 00:18:15,730
if this one didn't work out,
she'd lay off.

431
00:18:15,730 --> 00:18:17,941
You think that's gonna stick?

432
00:18:17,941 --> 00:18:19,192
Absolutely not.

433
00:18:19,192 --> 00:18:20,944
Okay, hear me out.

434
00:18:20,944 --> 00:18:23,405
What if we pretend to date?

435
00:18:23,405 --> 00:18:25,457
At least until December 25th.

436
00:18:27,027 --> 00:18:28,451
Look, it's up to you, okay?

437
00:18:28,451 --> 00:18:30,495
I know we're almost at
the end of our hour here,

438
00:18:30,495 --> 00:18:33,248
but think about it, okay?
We don't have to see each other.

439
00:18:33,248 --> 00:18:35,792
We just tell people
we're dating.

440
00:18:35,792 --> 00:18:39,296
Though if you do have a holiday
event you need to attend,

441
00:18:39,296 --> 00:18:41,756
you have a built in date
who's not terrible at dancing.

442
00:18:41,756 --> 00:18:43,559
Not terrible at dancing.

443
00:18:43,559 --> 00:18:45,969
Wow, your resume
is really impressive.

444
00:18:47,304 --> 00:18:48,763
Then after Christmas,

445
00:18:48,763 --> 00:18:51,817
we just tell everyone
it didn't work out.

446
00:18:51,817 --> 00:18:53,360
Go our separate ways.

447
00:18:54,763 --> 00:18:56,155
What do you think?

448
00:19:00,352 --> 00:19:02,027
- Okay.
- Yeah?

449
00:19:02,027 --> 00:19:04,246
- Yeah, let's fake date.
- Okay.

450
00:19:13,907 --> 00:19:16,875
Look at all the fun we have
when we work as a team.

451
00:19:16,875 --> 00:19:18,177
Hey!

452
00:19:18,177 --> 00:19:19,753
Watch where you
point that thing.

453
00:19:19,753 --> 00:19:21,180
Oh, sorry, sorry.

454
00:19:21,180 --> 00:19:23,381
Really great work everybody.

455
00:19:23,381 --> 00:19:26,602
I will be back later to
check on <i>your</i> progress.

456
00:19:34,552 --> 00:19:38,605
The line for Santa goes
in this direction.

457
00:19:38,605 --> 00:19:41,650
Okay, well you never gave me the
layout that I asked you for

458
00:19:41,650 --> 00:19:43,452
because you keep saying
it's all in your head.

459
00:19:43,452 --> 00:19:45,070
But what if you get hit
by a bus?

460
00:19:45,070 --> 00:19:46,571
Are you manifesting?

461
00:19:46,571 --> 00:19:50,408
It makes more sense for it
to go in that direction.

462
00:19:50,408 --> 00:19:52,786
Well, it's going to go

463
00:19:52,786 --> 00:19:55,789
in this direction.

464
00:19:55,789 --> 00:19:57,082
Fourteen years,

465
00:19:57,082 --> 00:19:58,508
never been a problem.

466
00:19:59,619 --> 00:20:01,419
That doesn't mean it's right.

467
00:20:01,419 --> 00:20:02,420
Okay, Miss Bossy Pants.

468
00:20:02,420 --> 00:20:03,838
- I am not.
- Are too.

469
00:20:03,838 --> 00:20:05,590
- I am not. I am not.
- Are too. Are too.

470
00:20:05,590 --> 00:20:07,976
Just because I had a real job
in the real world.

471
00:20:07,976 --> 00:20:09,594
Excuse me?

472
00:20:09,594 --> 00:20:12,180
Being an administrator
at the Chamber of Commerce

473
00:20:12,180 --> 00:20:14,608
is a real job.
You know what?

474
00:20:14,608 --> 00:20:18,728
If this committee is not for
you, why don't you just quit?

475
00:20:18,728 --> 00:20:22,649
I will not quit this committee
until after the Christmas season

476
00:20:22,649 --> 00:20:25,193
because I am not a quitter.
Only quitters quit.

477
00:20:25,193 --> 00:20:28,571
But after that, if I never see
you again, it'll be too soon.

478
00:20:28,571 --> 00:20:30,991
Not if I don't see you first.

479
00:20:30,991 --> 00:20:32,450
That doesn't make any sense.

480
00:20:32,450 --> 00:20:33,994
- Does too.
- Does not.

481
00:20:33,994 --> 00:20:35,379
- Does too.
- Ugh!

482
00:20:36,865 --> 00:20:37,798
Quitter.

483
00:20:39,701 --> 00:20:41,760
So you're not
really dating this guy,

484
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,129
but you're telling your mom
that you are?

485
00:20:44,129 --> 00:20:45,463
Yes.

486
00:20:45,463 --> 00:20:47,465
But you said he was cute.

487
00:20:47,465 --> 00:20:48,591
That's not the point.

488
00:20:48,591 --> 00:20:50,719
I think that's relevant
information.

489
00:20:50,719 --> 00:20:52,679
You know what's
relevant information

490
00:20:52,679 --> 00:20:54,597
that we have three weeks
left to submit this project

491
00:20:54,597 --> 00:20:56,182
to the architectural
review board.

492
00:20:56,182 --> 00:20:57,776
Yes. Uh, speaking of,

493
00:20:57,776 --> 00:21:00,645
I spoke with the team at Apres
and they want to remove

494
00:21:00,645 --> 00:21:02,772
the coffee shop
and put in a restaurant.

495
00:21:02,772 --> 00:21:05,191
How are we supposed to fit
that in the square footage?

496
00:21:05,191 --> 00:21:06,651
I did a mock up.

497
00:21:06,651 --> 00:21:09,955
It could fit if we removed
the gift shop.

498
00:21:09,955 --> 00:21:11,865
- See.
- Yeah.

499
00:21:11,865 --> 00:21:13,908
And we'd have to
adjust the check in desk.

500
00:21:13,908 --> 00:21:15,910
We could build the kitchen
out through here.

501
00:21:15,910 --> 00:21:18,997
We can still submit it to the
review board in the new year.

502
00:21:18,997 --> 00:21:21,800
Yeah, except new zoning goes
into effect January 1st,

503
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,044
and that would mean
a massive square one redesign.

504
00:21:24,044 --> 00:21:25,304
I'm sure it'll all work out.

505
00:21:25,304 --> 00:21:26,671
Well, things don't
just work out.

506
00:21:26,671 --> 00:21:28,307
They're the result
of careful planning.

507
00:21:28,307 --> 00:21:29,466
And this is our
first major client.

508
00:21:29,466 --> 00:21:30,633
If we don't get this right--

509
00:21:30,633 --> 00:21:32,811
I'll happily set expectations.

510
00:21:32,811 --> 00:21:36,473
No, I can get this done before
we close for the holidays.

511
00:21:36,473 --> 00:21:38,433
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.

512
00:21:38,433 --> 00:21:40,143
All right.

513
00:21:40,143 --> 00:21:42,321
- Just have to start now.
- Okay.

514
00:21:42,321 --> 00:21:44,189
- Good luck.
- Thank you.

515
00:21:50,313 --> 00:21:52,072
I think I got
enough mini trinkets

516
00:21:52,072 --> 00:21:53,698
to decorate the model hotel.

517
00:21:53,698 --> 00:21:56,451
Honey, you got enough to
decorate several hotel models.

518
00:21:56,451 --> 00:21:57,786
I want it to look festive.

519
00:21:57,786 --> 00:21:59,338
With all the changes
to the design,

520
00:21:59,338 --> 00:22:00,705
I haven't had time to make any

521
00:22:00,705 --> 00:22:02,357
of the little
figures I normally would.

522
00:22:02,357 --> 00:22:05,043
Are you gonna be able to see
Shane again or are you too busy?

523
00:22:05,043 --> 00:22:06,094
Ha?

524
00:22:06,094 --> 00:22:09,097
Oh, yeah, definitely.

525
00:22:09,097 --> 00:22:10,298
Honey, if he's not your type,

526
00:22:10,298 --> 00:22:11,508
I will just go
back on that app

527
00:22:11,508 --> 00:22:13,259
and rustle you up a new guy.

528
00:22:13,259 --> 00:22:14,719
Not necessary. Shane's great.

529
00:22:14,719 --> 00:22:16,262
We're gonna see each other
again, and we don't

530
00:22:16,262 --> 00:22:17,263
need to keep talking about it.

531
00:22:17,263 --> 00:22:18,807
All right, I'll back off.

532
00:22:18,807 --> 00:22:21,101
But if you're really into Shane,
I need to meet him.

533
00:22:25,014 --> 00:22:27,482
You don't have to do
all this volunteering.

534
00:22:27,482 --> 00:22:29,734
- Well, what else would I do?
- I don't know.

535
00:22:29,734 --> 00:22:32,028
I, I just want
to make sure you're okay,

536
00:22:32,028 --> 00:22:34,447
that this committee
is something you want to do

537
00:22:34,447 --> 00:22:37,042
and not just
filling some void.

538
00:22:38,453 --> 00:22:41,287
It is what I want to do.

539
00:22:41,287 --> 00:22:43,540
Okay. I will take your word
for it.

540
00:22:43,540 --> 00:22:44,624
- Hmm.
- Hm.

541
00:22:44,624 --> 00:22:47,135
And I want to get some old wine.

542
00:22:47,135 --> 00:22:49,554
- Okay. Love you.
- I love you.

543
00:22:53,334 --> 00:22:54,559
Thank you.

544
00:22:57,222 --> 00:22:58,763
I'm here for my shift.

545
00:22:58,763 --> 00:23:00,473
Well, that means
it's time for me to go

546
00:23:00,473 --> 00:23:02,150
check out the
candy cane selection.

547
00:23:02,150 --> 00:23:03,693
- Okay, bye.
- See ya.

548
00:23:05,981 --> 00:23:08,273
Just so you know, I'm not
quitting the committee.

549
00:23:08,273 --> 00:23:12,777
Somebody needs to be here to
hold <i>some</i> people accountable.

550
00:23:12,777 --> 00:23:16,164
Since when was Christmas about
accountability?

551
00:23:16,164 --> 00:23:18,032
We create all of these events

552
00:23:18,032 --> 00:23:21,870
so people can experience
spontaneous moments of joy.

553
00:23:21,870 --> 00:23:24,789
When was the last time you had
a spontaneous moment of joy?

554
00:23:24,789 --> 00:23:27,876
If you're going to be rude,
we don't have to talk.

555
00:23:27,876 --> 00:23:31,171
Oh, we don't even
need to sit here together.

556
00:23:31,171 --> 00:23:32,589
One of us can man the table,

557
00:23:32,589 --> 00:23:33,923
and the other one
can take photos.

558
00:23:33,923 --> 00:23:36,342
Oh, this camera is extremely
technical.

559
00:23:36,342 --> 00:23:37,552
- So I should probably--
- Yeah, yes.

560
00:23:37,552 --> 00:23:38,887
I'm very familiar with it.

561
00:23:38,887 --> 00:23:41,181
I worked in a dark room
in college.

562
00:23:41,181 --> 00:23:43,099
- It's digital.
- Smile.

563
00:23:43,099 --> 00:23:44,809
Mm-hmm.

564
00:23:44,809 --> 00:23:45,735
See ya.

565
00:23:51,142 --> 00:23:52,317
Thanks for doing this.

566
00:23:52,317 --> 00:23:53,818
Of course.

567
00:23:53,818 --> 00:23:55,612
What's the use of having
a fake boyfriend

568
00:23:55,612 --> 00:23:57,030
if you can't use them to
fake out your mom.

569
00:23:57,030 --> 00:23:58,948
Yeah, I don't think
she'd buy it otherwise.

570
00:23:58,948 --> 00:23:59,875
Here, try this.

571
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,003
Okay.

572
00:24:06,199 --> 00:24:07,507
Hmm...

573
00:24:08,743 --> 00:24:09,968
It's delicious.
What is it?

574
00:24:09,968 --> 00:24:11,344
Hokifli.

575
00:24:11,344 --> 00:24:13,838
My grandma used to make them
every Christmas.

576
00:24:13,838 --> 00:24:16,633
Now my mom and I have taken over
the tradition.

577
00:24:16,633 --> 00:24:19,385
Well, mostly my mom.

578
00:24:19,385 --> 00:24:21,346
I'm a terrible baker.

579
00:24:21,346 --> 00:24:23,848
Bad at baking. Deal breaker.

580
00:24:23,848 --> 00:24:25,484
Guess we should call off
our fake dating.

581
00:24:31,432 --> 00:24:32,782
Ready to sell this?

582
00:24:34,018 --> 00:24:34,868
Let's do it.

583
00:24:42,277 --> 00:24:43,701
- Lauren.
- Mom.

584
00:24:43,701 --> 00:24:46,371
Oh, hi.
This must be Shane.

585
00:24:46,371 --> 00:24:47,797
- Hello.
- Hi.

586
00:24:48,884 --> 00:24:51,000
Shane.

587
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,168
You know Shane?

588
00:24:52,168 --> 00:24:53,670
Um, Kath,

589
00:24:53,670 --> 00:24:56,056
Lauren, this is my mother,
Barbara.

590
00:24:57,792 --> 00:25:00,426
Oh, Lauren is your...

591
00:25:00,426 --> 00:25:02,020
Oh, no.

592
00:25:02,020 --> 00:25:05,181
"Goodtimegal." I should have
known. Such a silly handle.

593
00:25:05,181 --> 00:25:08,226
Oh, really? "BNumbers99."

594
00:25:08,226 --> 00:25:12,438
Oh, Barbara is the new member
of the Chamber of Commerce.

595
00:25:12,438 --> 00:25:15,441
And you didn't realize...

596
00:25:15,441 --> 00:25:17,277
- Oh...
- Could you excuse us?

597
00:25:17,277 --> 00:25:20,738
We have some official
Chamber of Commerce business.

598
00:25:20,738 --> 00:25:22,699
- Yes.
- Hot chocolate?

599
00:25:22,699 --> 00:25:25,285
- Oh, I'd love one.
- I'd love one.

600
00:25:25,285 --> 00:25:26,411
- Great.
- Right.

601
00:25:29,574 --> 00:25:31,291
You must be very proud of
yourself.

602
00:25:31,291 --> 00:25:32,458
What are you talking about?

603
00:25:32,458 --> 00:25:33,918
Oh, that your son landed
my daughter.

604
00:25:33,918 --> 00:25:35,461
You're the one that swiped
on him.

605
00:25:35,461 --> 00:25:36,963
Now, that was before
I knew this...

606
00:25:36,963 --> 00:25:40,600
Knew what? That he comes
from a good, solid family?

607
00:25:41,311 --> 00:25:42,677
As opposed to what?

608
00:25:42,677 --> 00:25:44,688
It doesn't really matter now.

609
00:25:45,506 --> 00:25:47,691
The damage is done.

610
00:25:49,510 --> 00:25:50,860
- Uh!
- Argh!

611
00:25:57,327 --> 00:25:58,827
Hey, honey.

612
00:25:59,580 --> 00:26:01,487
I brought you some lunch.

613
00:26:01,487 --> 00:26:02,572
Thanks.

614
00:26:02,572 --> 00:26:03,698
You were just in the area?

615
00:26:03,698 --> 00:26:05,491
Yeah, I just thought I'd

616
00:26:05,491 --> 00:26:07,452
stop by, see how you're doing.

617
00:26:07,452 --> 00:26:08,587
Thanks.

618
00:26:08,587 --> 00:26:11,131
So, uh, how's Lauren?

619
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:15,760
- Good.
- Good, good.

620
00:26:16,871 --> 00:26:18,096
There's not like
a, you know, like

621
00:26:18,096 --> 00:26:19,797
any kind of a serious
commitment thing

622
00:26:19,797 --> 00:26:21,466
or anything. Is it? Right?

623
00:26:21,466 --> 00:26:22,601
Why do you ask?

624
00:26:22,601 --> 00:26:24,927
Oh, no reason, you know,

625
00:26:24,927 --> 00:26:26,763
commitment's never really been
your thing.

626
00:26:26,763 --> 00:26:28,681
But if you like this Lauren,

627
00:26:28,681 --> 00:26:33,019
then I am... truly
overjoyed for you.

628
00:26:33,019 --> 00:26:33,936
Hmm.

629
00:26:33,936 --> 00:26:36,564
Having your support means a lot.

630
00:26:36,564 --> 00:26:37,866
Hmm.

631
00:26:40,561 --> 00:26:42,320
Love you.

632
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,747
Love you too.

633
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:47,742
- Hey, hey, Barbara.
- Oh, hi.

634
00:26:47,742 --> 00:26:49,827
We always do a Secret
Santa gift exchange

635
00:26:49,827 --> 00:26:51,329
at the last Chamber of
Commerce meeting.

636
00:26:51,329 --> 00:26:53,539
We have a little potluck
and do a little gift swap.

637
00:26:53,539 --> 00:26:54,832
Oh, well, that sounds like fun.

638
00:26:54,832 --> 00:26:56,801
- Thanks, Doug.
- No problem.

639
00:26:58,579 --> 00:26:59,888
Ugh!

640
00:27:01,582 --> 00:27:03,475
Well, you have to see this.

641
00:27:03,475 --> 00:27:05,968
Shane posted a photo
with Lauren.

642
00:27:05,968 --> 00:27:08,346
This is bad. Very bad.

643
00:27:08,346 --> 00:27:11,974
Well, I guess we have to let
this relationship run its course

644
00:27:11,974 --> 00:27:14,018
unless we want to go, you know,

645
00:27:14,018 --> 00:27:17,397
full sabotage and
try to break them up.

646
00:27:20,685 --> 00:27:22,151
What if we did try
to break them up?

647
00:27:22,151 --> 00:27:24,237
I mean, they barely
know each other.

648
00:27:24,237 --> 00:27:25,413
Huh!

649
00:27:25,413 --> 00:27:26,915
I mean, if Shane knew I wanted

650
00:27:26,915 --> 00:27:28,116
him to break up
with Lauren, he'd

651
00:27:28,116 --> 00:27:29,867
probably double down
and marry her.

652
00:27:29,867 --> 00:27:31,828
But let's think this through.

653
00:27:31,828 --> 00:27:33,746
I mean, there is no way that

654
00:27:33,746 --> 00:27:36,791
my son is compatible
with your daughter.

655
00:27:36,791 --> 00:27:39,043
Well, there's no way
that my daughter

656
00:27:39,043 --> 00:27:41,838
is actually compatible
with your son.

657
00:27:41,838 --> 00:27:43,881
I mean, this relationship is
going to end

658
00:27:43,881 --> 00:27:45,758
in a heartbreak. It's just a
matter of when.

659
00:27:45,758 --> 00:27:47,385
So if we do break them up,
it's like

660
00:27:47,385 --> 00:27:48,428
we're doing them a favor.

661
00:27:48,428 --> 00:27:49,554
A huge favor.

662
00:27:49,554 --> 00:27:50,763
They will thank us.

663
00:27:50,763 --> 00:27:52,107
They'll be so happy.

664
00:27:54,069 --> 00:27:55,068
Okay.

665
00:27:58,848 --> 00:28:00,949
Good morning.
You want to see?

666
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,611
That's actually, hm,
not terrible.

667
00:28:05,611 --> 00:28:08,364
I'm full of surprises.

668
00:28:08,364 --> 00:28:11,993
Oh, you know, I used to
buy my boys a new ornament

669
00:28:11,993 --> 00:28:13,995
every year at Christmas.

670
00:28:13,995 --> 00:28:16,122
Well, then the tree got too full
and I had to stop.

671
00:28:16,122 --> 00:28:18,374
Not that they ever noticed.

672
00:28:18,374 --> 00:28:20,668
I used to get Lauren a
new Santa doll every year.

673
00:28:20,668 --> 00:28:22,378
And of course she didn't like
them anymore, so they're all

674
00:28:22,378 --> 00:28:24,797
at my house and it looks like a
Christmas convention.

675
00:28:24,797 --> 00:28:26,048
I'll bet.

676
00:28:26,048 --> 00:28:28,259
Have you talked
to her about Shane?

677
00:28:28,259 --> 00:28:30,094
She didn't have one bad thing
to say about him.

678
00:28:30,094 --> 00:28:33,055
Uh, well, it's the beginning
of a relationship.

679
00:28:33,055 --> 00:28:35,016
You know, when
everything is magical,

680
00:28:35,016 --> 00:28:36,893
the other person can do
no wrong.

681
00:28:36,893 --> 00:28:38,895
True, but then they will

682
00:28:38,895 --> 00:28:40,196
<i>really</i> get to
know each other,

683
00:28:40,196 --> 00:28:41,939
and they're gonna see
how different they are.

684
00:28:41,939 --> 00:28:43,357
- And then it'll be over.
- Yeah.

685
00:28:43,357 --> 00:28:45,568
You and I could not be
more different.

686
00:28:45,568 --> 00:28:47,203
Oh, agreed.

687
00:28:47,203 --> 00:28:48,905
All right,
well, tell me about Shane.

688
00:28:48,905 --> 00:28:49,956
What makes him tick?

689
00:28:49,956 --> 00:28:51,616
Well, he's very passionate.

690
00:28:51,616 --> 00:28:53,409
A bit of a free spirit.

691
00:28:53,409 --> 00:28:56,537
He loves his art.
The business side, not so much.

692
00:28:56,537 --> 00:28:59,707
And his theater is in need
of a lot of repairs,

693
00:28:59,707 --> 00:29:03,085
which, between you and me,
it's not his strong suit.

694
00:29:03,085 --> 00:29:05,671
I haven't been able to
get a Christmas tree yet

695
00:29:05,671 --> 00:29:07,799
because my van is in the shop.

696
00:29:07,799 --> 00:29:09,383
Well, I'm sorry to hear that,

697
00:29:09,383 --> 00:29:12,220
but concentrate, we have
a relationship to break up.

698
00:29:12,220 --> 00:29:15,148
No, no, go with me.
I'm working on a plan.

699
00:29:16,217 --> 00:29:17,734
Does Shane have a big car?

700
00:29:17,734 --> 00:29:19,977
Yes, an SUV. Why?

701
00:29:19,977 --> 00:29:21,979
I am going to ask him
and Lauren

702
00:29:21,979 --> 00:29:23,731
to help me come
and get a tree.

703
00:29:23,731 --> 00:29:25,107
That's your plan?

704
00:29:25,107 --> 00:29:27,235
Because my son is fully capable

705
00:29:27,235 --> 00:29:29,454
of tying a dead plant to a car.

706
00:29:30,573 --> 00:29:32,490
Just trust me. Okay?

707
00:29:32,490 --> 00:29:33,958
Okay.

708
00:29:36,329 --> 00:29:38,254
Thank you guys so much for
inviting me today.

709
00:29:38,254 --> 00:29:40,122
I've never been Christmas tree
shopping.

710
00:29:40,122 --> 00:29:42,208
We always had a fake tree
growing up.

711
00:29:42,208 --> 00:29:44,511
Of course, Barbara
had a fake tree.

712
00:29:44,511 --> 00:29:45,920
- Mom!
- What?

713
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,265
I-I meant it seemed
very put together of her.

714
00:29:49,265 --> 00:29:52,635
Oh, this is it.
This is the one.

715
00:29:52,635 --> 00:29:54,136
It's a bit big, isn't it?

716
00:29:54,136 --> 00:29:57,139
No, it's perfect.
It's a real beaut.

717
00:29:57,139 --> 00:29:59,016
Okay, well, I'll go get
someone to help us--

718
00:29:59,016 --> 00:30:01,435
No, no, no, no.
Shane can do that.

719
00:30:01,435 --> 00:30:03,271
He can trim it for us,
can't you, Shane?

720
00:30:03,271 --> 00:30:05,773
We got this "big, strong guy."

721
00:30:05,773 --> 00:30:08,651
You don't need another person
to help me carry that, do you?

722
00:30:08,651 --> 00:30:10,528
No, no, I guess...

723
00:30:10,528 --> 00:30:11,529
I guess not.

724
00:30:11,529 --> 00:30:12,947
Okay, here you go.

725
00:30:12,947 --> 00:30:14,949
Oh, um...

726
00:30:14,949 --> 00:30:16,376
These are...

727
00:30:18,988 --> 00:30:20,997
- What's gotten into you?
- What?

728
00:30:20,997 --> 00:30:23,291
This big, strong guy thing.

729
00:30:23,291 --> 00:30:26,627
We don't need a man to help us
do anything. We never have.

730
00:30:26,627 --> 00:30:29,005
I mean, you always say, it's us
against the world.

731
00:30:29,005 --> 00:30:30,882
I was just trying to
make him feel included.

732
00:30:30,882 --> 00:30:32,216
By the way, a man will love it

733
00:30:32,216 --> 00:30:33,634
when you talk to them
like this. Okay.

734
00:30:33,634 --> 00:30:35,520
No, no, no, no, no.
You're doing it wrong.

735
00:30:37,006 --> 00:30:39,015
- I am?
- Yes.

736
00:30:39,015 --> 00:30:40,316
- Yeah, I guess I'm--
- Okay.

737
00:30:40,316 --> 00:30:42,184
That's enough trimming.
I think it looks great.

738
00:30:42,184 --> 00:30:44,279
- It looks great like that.
- No, you're right.

739
00:30:46,474 --> 00:30:50,234
Whoa. Is there anything else in
there I should know about?

740
00:30:50,234 --> 00:30:52,278
Well, I'm sorry I came prepared.

741
00:30:52,278 --> 00:30:54,080
- Here you go, champ.
- Um...

742
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,041
- Wrap it up.
- Thank you. Um...

743
00:30:57,944 --> 00:30:59,660
Great. Um...

744
00:30:59,660 --> 00:31:00,870
Yeah.

745
00:31:05,743 --> 00:31:07,001
- Haven't got all day.
- Okay.

746
00:31:07,001 --> 00:31:08,836
Um, there.

747
00:31:11,582 --> 00:31:13,266
Try that again.

748
00:31:15,261 --> 00:31:17,353
Okay. Shane, just move it away.

749
00:31:17,353 --> 00:31:18,855
- Bring it forward.
- Oww! Oww!

750
00:31:18,855 --> 00:31:21,223
Why is it so sticky in here?

751
00:31:21,223 --> 00:31:23,225
Okay, stop.
Um...

752
00:31:23,225 --> 00:31:24,936
How about we
just bring it forward

753
00:31:24,936 --> 00:31:27,363
and then work together
to wrap it?

754
00:31:27,363 --> 00:31:30,366
That would make
a lot more sense.

755
00:31:30,366 --> 00:31:31,868
I'm so sorry.
This is my first time.

756
00:31:31,868 --> 00:31:32,869
I have no idea what I'm doing.

757
00:31:32,869 --> 00:31:34,445
It's okay.

758
00:31:36,364 --> 00:31:38,291
- Um...
- All right.

759
00:31:42,956 --> 00:31:44,464
Okay. All right.

760
00:31:45,908 --> 00:31:47,342
Oh, um...

761
00:31:48,711 --> 00:31:50,762
Sorry, I just, um...

762
00:31:50,762 --> 00:31:51,888
Well, no, that doesn't work.

763
00:31:51,888 --> 00:31:53,756
I'm so sorry.

764
00:31:57,336 --> 00:31:59,095
- Ah! Sorry.
- Oh! No, yeah, nope.

765
00:31:59,095 --> 00:32:01,222
Good.

766
00:32:01,222 --> 00:32:02,306
Are we done?

767
00:32:02,306 --> 00:32:03,733
- Uh, sure.
- All right.

768
00:32:05,153 --> 00:32:07,144
- Yeah.
- Wow.

769
00:32:07,144 --> 00:32:08,446
We're terrible at this,
aren't we?

770
00:32:10,307 --> 00:32:12,817
Yeah, we should probably
call somebody to come help.

771
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:18,748
Good thing I'm an architect.

772
00:32:21,444 --> 00:32:23,119
It's not too tall, right?

773
00:32:23,119 --> 00:32:24,921
It's perfect.

774
00:32:24,921 --> 00:32:27,123
All right.
Perfect's a bit much.

775
00:32:27,123 --> 00:32:29,133
We'll trim it a little.

776
00:32:30,253 --> 00:32:31,502
- What was that?
- I don't know.

777
00:32:31,502 --> 00:32:33,429
The tree was just settling, right?

778
00:32:33,429 --> 00:32:35,297
- Trees do that.
- Uh, I don't--

779
00:32:35,297 --> 00:32:37,934
No, no, no! No, no, no.

780
00:32:37,934 --> 00:32:39,510
- Oh...
- Oh. Oh.

781
00:32:39,510 --> 00:32:41,637
Look, it's a little
Christmas rat.

782
00:32:41,637 --> 00:32:44,807
- What do you mean Christmas rat?
- Go, get it.

783
00:32:44,807 --> 00:32:46,142
Me?

784
00:32:46,142 --> 00:32:48,277
Yeah. Go and get it.

785
00:32:49,272 --> 00:32:51,689
- Macho thing. Go.
- Okay.

786
00:32:51,689 --> 00:32:53,649
No, don't...

787
00:32:53,649 --> 00:32:55,401
Oh my...
Okay.

788
00:32:55,401 --> 00:32:57,820
- He's kind of cute.
- Just stop it.

789
00:32:57,820 --> 00:33:01,157
He's not that cute.
He's kind of the size of...

790
00:33:01,157 --> 00:33:03,034
- You got this.
- Okay, it's not a bull.

791
00:33:03,034 --> 00:33:05,461
I know it's not a bull.

792
00:33:07,716 --> 00:33:09,298
I can do this.

793
00:33:10,793 --> 00:33:12,001
Come here, you oversized

794
00:33:12,001 --> 00:33:13,210
oversized domino.

795
00:33:13,210 --> 00:33:16,297
Oh, God! Oh. Oh.
Oh, yep, yep, yep.

796
00:33:16,297 --> 00:33:21,052
Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, he's
crawling on my arm. Oh, no.

797
00:33:21,052 --> 00:33:23,345
Go, go, go, go, go. Go, door.

798
00:33:23,345 --> 00:33:25,523
Bye-bye forever.
Bye forever.

799
00:33:27,310 --> 00:33:29,310
- Ugh! Yeah.
- You okay?

800
00:33:29,310 --> 00:33:30,978
You're a regular Snow White.

801
00:33:30,978 --> 00:33:33,898
Yeah, well, just wait 'til you
hear me sing and clean.

802
00:33:33,898 --> 00:33:35,608
Oh.

803
00:33:35,608 --> 00:33:37,452
I would like to
shower now.

804
00:33:43,567 --> 00:33:46,502
Well, I guess your plan
flopped spectacularly.

805
00:33:46,502 --> 00:33:48,504
Well, have you got
a better idea?

806
00:33:48,504 --> 00:33:49,830
I do.

807
00:33:49,830 --> 00:33:51,248
The overbearing mother.

808
00:33:51,248 --> 00:33:53,584
I've invited Lauren to come see
Shane's play.

809
00:33:53,584 --> 00:33:55,211
And what did Shane
say about that?

810
00:33:55,211 --> 00:33:56,962
He doesn't know.

811
00:33:56,962 --> 00:33:58,014
He's gonna hate it if he thinks

812
00:33:58,014 --> 00:33:59,215
I'm forcing them together.

813
00:33:59,215 --> 00:34:01,509
- Not bad, not bad.
- Mm-hmm.

814
00:34:01,509 --> 00:34:03,094
So what should I know about
Lauren?

815
00:34:03,094 --> 00:34:05,846
- She's shy.
- Ahh...

816
00:34:05,846 --> 00:34:08,724
Then I could get Shane to
invite her up on stage.

817
00:34:08,724 --> 00:34:11,393
Oh. And she's also stubborn.
She won't go.

818
00:34:11,393 --> 00:34:13,521
Then he'll think that she
doesn't go with the flow.

819
00:34:13,521 --> 00:34:15,189
And he hates it
when people...

820
00:34:15,189 --> 00:34:16,398
Namely me.

821
00:34:16,398 --> 00:34:17,983
- Don't go with the flow.
- Hm.

822
00:34:17,983 --> 00:34:21,403
Sounds like you have an A 
relationship with your son.

823
00:34:21,403 --> 00:34:22,789
My son and I are fine.

824
00:34:22,789 --> 00:34:26,242
We can't all be mother-daughter
chummy besties.

825
00:34:26,242 --> 00:34:28,119
Well, I wouldn't say besties.

826
00:34:28,119 --> 00:34:30,162
She's been work, work, work
lately.

827
00:34:30,162 --> 00:34:34,342
Hmm. Except she did carve out a
night to attend the theater.

828
00:34:45,504 --> 00:34:47,063
Hey, thank you for coming.

829
00:34:47,063 --> 00:34:48,430
Of course, honey.

830
00:34:48,430 --> 00:34:50,724
- You look very festive.
- Thank you.

831
00:34:50,724 --> 00:34:53,269
I've only got a few minutes,
so...

832
00:34:53,269 --> 00:34:56,272
Oh, Lauren.
Hi, you came.

833
00:34:56,272 --> 00:34:58,274
I want you to meet
my husband Mark

834
00:34:58,274 --> 00:35:00,442
and my adorable son Aiden,

835
00:35:00,442 --> 00:35:02,278
his precious husband Jeff.

836
00:35:02,278 --> 00:35:04,155
Hi. Lovely to meet you all.

837
00:35:04,155 --> 00:35:05,698
This is Lauren, everyone.

838
00:35:05,698 --> 00:35:09,326
She's Shane's friend.
Are we saying friend?

839
00:35:09,326 --> 00:35:12,839
We-we don't have
to label anything.

840
00:35:12,839 --> 00:35:14,382
- Hi.
- Hi.

841
00:35:14,825 --> 00:35:16,417
Oh.

842
00:35:16,417 --> 00:35:18,094
I didn't realize you were
coming.

843
00:35:18,094 --> 00:35:20,379
Oh, well, I invited her.

844
00:35:20,379 --> 00:35:22,923
I might be a little bit
of a meddling mom.

845
00:35:22,923 --> 00:35:25,801
I love my son so much.
I'm just sort of...

846
00:35:25,801 --> 00:35:28,929
What do they say? I'm just
always up in their grills.

847
00:35:28,929 --> 00:35:31,307
Mom, nobody says that.

848
00:35:31,307 --> 00:35:32,908
I have to go backstage.

849
00:35:32,908 --> 00:35:35,862
Jeff, do me a favor. Make sure
they don't scare her off.

850
00:35:35,862 --> 00:35:37,354
It's a tall order,
but I'll do my best.

851
00:35:37,354 --> 00:35:40,149
- Hey!
- We'll be nice.

852
00:35:40,149 --> 00:35:42,118
Break a leg.

853
00:35:42,118 --> 00:35:44,278
Oh, hey, honey.

854
00:35:44,278 --> 00:35:45,654
I had an idea.

855
00:35:45,654 --> 00:35:47,281
You know how you
sometimes bring...

856
00:35:47,281 --> 00:35:48,616
- people up from the audience?
- Uh-huh.

857
00:35:48,616 --> 00:35:50,877
What if you ask Lauren
to join you?

858
00:36:02,004 --> 00:36:03,464
Good evening, everyone.

859
00:36:03,464 --> 00:36:06,967
Welcome to Brooklyn
City Troupe presents,

860
00:36:06,967 --> 00:36:08,677
<i>A Christmas Carol.</i>

861
00:36:08,677 --> 00:36:12,431
To start, I need a couple of
suggestions from the audience.

862
00:36:12,431 --> 00:36:17,436
Number one, a job that is
not an accountant.

863
00:36:17,436 --> 00:36:20,648
- Santa Claus.
- Okay, Santa Claus.

864
00:36:20,648 --> 00:36:23,576
And now I need a method
for delivering information.

865
00:36:23,576 --> 00:36:26,779
- A carrier pigeon.
- I heard carrier pigeon.

866
00:36:30,574 --> 00:36:32,952
'Twas the night
before Christmas

867
00:36:32,952 --> 00:36:35,037
and all through the room,

868
00:36:35,037 --> 00:36:37,039
Scrooge was counting his money,

869
00:36:37,039 --> 00:36:39,583
cashing checks with his plume.

870
00:36:39,583 --> 00:36:42,962
He grouched everybody
on his naughty list

871
00:36:42,962 --> 00:36:44,296
because, surprise,

872
00:36:44,296 --> 00:36:46,098
Scrooge is Santa

873
00:36:46,098 --> 00:36:48,968
and he ain't giving gifts.

874
00:36:48,968 --> 00:36:52,721
These confounded elves keep
adding people to the nice list.

875
00:36:52,721 --> 00:36:56,225
Don't they know it's impossible
for anyone to be completely nice

876
00:36:56,225 --> 00:36:59,979
Now that nights after Scrooge
was tucked safe in his bed,

877
00:36:59,979 --> 00:37:02,189
visions of sugar plums...

878
00:37:03,315 --> 00:37:05,618
Knocked out of his head

879
00:37:05,618 --> 00:37:10,281
and who should appear
right in front of his eyes...

880
00:37:10,281 --> 00:37:12,449
but his old friend Jay Marley

881
00:37:12,449 --> 00:37:14,660
in ghostly surprise.

882
00:37:14,660 --> 00:37:16,620
Oh, no. No, no, no,
no, no.

883
00:37:16,620 --> 00:37:19,123
Oh, no, honey, maybe
she'd just rather not.

884
00:37:19,123 --> 00:37:20,499
Hey.

885
00:37:20,499 --> 00:37:22,843
It'll be fun, I promise.

886
00:37:26,465 --> 00:37:28,849
Ladies and gentlemen,
we have our Marley.

887
00:37:37,977 --> 00:37:42,655
Now, Santa Scrooge was knocked
from his miserly dreams

888
00:37:42,655 --> 00:37:46,492
with a scare from Ole Marley
that made the bloke scream.

889
00:37:47,144 --> 00:37:48,995
- Scream.
- Oh.

890
00:37:53,242 --> 00:37:54,166
Boo!

891
00:37:57,077 --> 00:37:58,996
Now, Scrooge,

892
00:37:58,996 --> 00:38:04,043
Marley has a message
for you via <i>carrier pigeon.</i>

893
00:38:17,883 --> 00:38:21,694
Ah, a ghost who only
communicates via pigeon.

894
00:38:21,694 --> 00:38:22,519
Classic.

895
00:38:22,519 --> 00:38:24,947
Well, ghosts of Marley,

896
00:38:24,947 --> 00:38:26,565
you don't scare me.

897
00:38:30,413 --> 00:38:32,404
Give it up for Marley.

898
00:38:41,240 --> 00:38:42,757
Thank you.

899
00:38:44,594 --> 00:38:46,635
You did great.

900
00:38:54,670 --> 00:38:57,346
What's going on?
Where is Santa?

901
00:38:57,346 --> 00:38:59,098
Doug said, he couldn't
take it anymore

902
00:38:59,098 --> 00:39:02,101
and ran into the break room
and locked the door behind him.

903
00:39:02,101 --> 00:39:03,727
Yolanda is going to flip out

904
00:39:03,727 --> 00:39:06,397
if she finds out
Santa has gone AWOL.

905
00:39:06,397 --> 00:39:08,482
I don't get it. This Yolanda...

906
00:39:08,482 --> 00:39:09,992
You have no trouble
pushing back on me

907
00:39:09,992 --> 00:39:12,903
or pushing your daughter around,
but you're terrified of her.

908
00:39:12,903 --> 00:39:14,221
She's the boss.

909
00:39:14,221 --> 00:39:15,906
Do you have a problem with
authority figures?

910
00:39:15,906 --> 00:39:18,534
Oh, my God. What are you,
my therapist now?

911
00:39:18,534 --> 00:39:20,252
I'm sorry, just asking you
a question.

912
00:39:20,252 --> 00:39:22,329
Here. Let me.

913
00:39:24,331 --> 00:39:27,459
Doug, open this door
right now.

914
00:39:27,459 --> 00:39:28,969
Go away.

915
00:39:32,889 --> 00:39:35,092
Doug, we just wanna talk to you.

916
00:39:35,092 --> 00:39:36,268
We're not gonna go away.

917
00:39:36,268 --> 00:39:40,973
Remember, we deploy
Christmas joy.

918
00:39:40,973 --> 00:39:43,149
Well, I don't want to
talk to you.

919
00:39:46,889 --> 00:39:49,782
Hey, there are a lot
of children out here

920
00:39:49,782 --> 00:39:52,785
and you are making
some of them cry.

921
00:39:52,785 --> 00:39:55,237
So I want you to come out
of there right now.

922
00:39:55,237 --> 00:39:58,657
No, I'm not coming out.
And that's final.

923
00:39:58,657 --> 00:40:00,200
Should we call security?

924
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,119
No. Oh, I have an idea. Yep.

925
00:40:02,119 --> 00:40:03,829
- Help me.
- Where are we going with this?

926
00:40:03,829 --> 00:40:06,832
Just tip this.
Just put it down on the ground.

927
00:40:06,832 --> 00:40:08,884
- Got it.
- All right. Here we go.

928
00:40:11,121 --> 00:40:12,513
Oh. Okay.

929
00:40:16,183 --> 00:40:19,186
Oh.

930
00:40:19,186 --> 00:40:20,771
Merry Christmas.

931
00:40:22,525 --> 00:40:24,558
All right, stop. Okay.

932
00:40:24,558 --> 00:40:26,393
I just remembered.
I'm not crazy.

933
00:40:26,393 --> 00:40:28,487
- You do it.
- Okay. This one.

934
00:40:28,487 --> 00:40:29,822
- Okay.
- That one.

935
00:40:29,822 --> 00:40:31,907
- All right, here we go.
- Okay, here we go.

936
00:40:33,101 --> 00:40:34,034
Oh.

937
00:40:37,105 --> 00:40:39,198
Oh, Oh.

938
00:40:39,198 --> 00:40:41,200
Oh. Ohh!

939
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:42,835
What the...

940
00:40:42,835 --> 00:40:44,336
Oooh!

941
00:40:44,336 --> 00:40:45,880
Okay.

942
00:40:54,373 --> 00:40:55,923
Who are you? Catwoman?

943
00:40:55,923 --> 00:40:56,932
Pilates.

944
00:40:59,553 --> 00:41:01,303
I said, go away.

945
00:41:01,303 --> 00:41:02,721
When someone acts like you are,

946
00:41:02,721 --> 00:41:05,224
sometimes they're in need
of a big hug.

947
00:41:05,224 --> 00:41:07,601
- I'm not in the mood, Kath.
- Look, I get it.

948
00:41:07,601 --> 00:41:09,102
When you're
having a hard time,

949
00:41:09,102 --> 00:41:11,563
it's not a good idea to
push everyone away.

950
00:41:11,563 --> 00:41:14,525
I-I-I-I can't-I can't do this.

951
00:41:14,525 --> 00:41:15,868
I-it's too much pressure.

952
00:41:15,868 --> 00:41:17,620
What if they asked
for something,

953
00:41:17,620 --> 00:41:20,239
Christmas morning comes
and they don't get it?

954
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:21,823
One year when I was a kid,

955
00:41:21,823 --> 00:41:24,993
I asked Santa for a
Commander Storm action figure

956
00:41:24,993 --> 00:41:27,454
because all of my friends
had one.

957
00:41:27,454 --> 00:41:29,206
And then Christmas morning came

958
00:41:29,206 --> 00:41:31,583
and I got light logs.

959
00:41:31,583 --> 00:41:33,636
I-I-I-I was, I was so
devastated.

960
00:41:33,636 --> 00:41:35,629
I-I-I-I-I just, I-I can't,

961
00:41:35,629 --> 00:41:37,756
I can't handle this kind
of responsibility, Kath.

962
00:41:37,756 --> 00:41:39,141
- I can't. I can't--
- Okay, okay.

963
00:41:39,141 --> 00:41:41,635
You can, you can, you can.
Deep breath.

964
00:41:42,895 --> 00:41:46,598
Yes, you can.
Oh, I hear you, buddy.

965
00:41:46,598 --> 00:41:48,016
When I was six years old,

966
00:41:48,016 --> 00:41:50,769
I wrote Santa a letter
every week.

967
00:41:50,769 --> 00:41:53,313
All I wanted was
a little baker's oven.

968
00:41:53,313 --> 00:41:54,406
And that Christmas morning,

969
00:41:54,406 --> 00:41:56,158
I scoured under the tree

970
00:41:56,158 --> 00:41:59,069
for the exact size box.

971
00:41:59,069 --> 00:42:03,073
It wasn't there.
Oh, I was heartbroken.

972
00:42:03,073 --> 00:42:05,659
But you know what I eventually
realized?

973
00:42:05,659 --> 00:42:09,171
Christmas joy comes from giving,
not receiving.

974
00:42:09,171 --> 00:42:10,789
She's right.

975
00:42:10,789 --> 00:42:13,917
And life throws us all
curveballs.

976
00:42:13,917 --> 00:42:16,295
What matters is how you react.

977
00:42:16,295 --> 00:42:20,799
Now, if you can't see
these kids, I understand.

978
00:42:20,799 --> 00:42:22,134
But if that's the case,

979
00:42:22,134 --> 00:42:24,678
I'm gonna need to
get inside that suit.

980
00:42:24,678 --> 00:42:27,690
And what a terrible idea
that would be.

981
00:42:27,690 --> 00:42:29,850
- I can do it. I can do it.
- You can do it.

982
00:42:29,850 --> 00:42:32,311
- Thank you, both of you.
- Okay, deep breath.

983
00:42:32,311 --> 00:42:36,189
Go deploy Christmas joy.

984
00:42:36,189 --> 00:42:37,608
Go get 'em, Santa.

985
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:42,946
Jim is gonna be Santa next year.

986
00:42:42,946 --> 00:42:44,456
- For sure.
- Good idea.

987
00:42:46,208 --> 00:42:49,161
What is that expression?
"Teamwork makes the dream work."

988
00:42:49,161 --> 00:42:52,164
You know, maybe we've been
going about this all wrong.

989
00:42:52,164 --> 00:42:54,166
What are you talking about?
We just solved the problem.

990
00:42:54,166 --> 00:42:57,461
No, not this problem.
The Lauren and Shane problem.

991
00:42:57,461 --> 00:43:01,131
I mean, you tried, I tried.
Maybe we need to work together.

992
00:43:01,131 --> 00:43:05,477
They're a united front,
so we need to be a united front.

993
00:43:05,477 --> 00:43:08,022
Uh-huh. Could work.

994
00:43:23,779 --> 00:43:25,414
- <i>Hello.</i>
- Hey, Danielle.

995
00:43:25,414 --> 00:43:26,615
<i>Hey, What's going on?</i>

996
00:43:26,615 --> 00:43:29,418
So I adjusted
the clearance of the

997
00:43:29,418 --> 00:43:30,994
walkways in the restaurant,

998
00:43:30,994 --> 00:43:32,921
but I wanted to go through
the numbers with you.

999
00:43:32,921 --> 00:43:35,332
<i>Um, sure I just
need to cancel my date.</i>

1000
00:43:35,332 --> 00:43:37,134
What time is it?

1001
00:43:37,134 --> 00:43:39,419
- Oh, gosh, it's getting late.
<i>- Let me cancel.</i>

1002
00:43:39,419 --> 00:43:41,505
- Um. No, no, no, no, no.
<i>- Are you sure?</i>

1003
00:43:41,505 --> 00:43:42,948
Yeah. You enjoy your date night.

1004
00:43:42,948 --> 00:43:44,174
<i>Okay.
Don't stay too late.</i>

1005
00:43:44,174 --> 00:43:45,300
Okay. Bye.

1006
00:43:45,300 --> 00:43:46,301
<i>Bye.</i>

1007
00:44:05,230 --> 00:44:06,363
Okay.

1008
00:44:09,535 --> 00:44:10,826
<i>Hey, Aiden.</i>

1009
00:44:10,826 --> 00:44:12,411
Their offer on the building
is garbage.

1010
00:44:12,411 --> 00:44:15,622
- Do you wanna counter again?
- What are we countering?

1011
00:44:15,622 --> 00:44:17,582
Nothing. Small side thing.

1012
00:44:17,582 --> 00:44:21,011
Okay. Uh, I have the company
Christmas cards for you to sign.

1013
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:25,340
<i>Does dad know
I'm selling?</i>

1014
00:44:25,340 --> 00:44:27,217
Because if he knows
then mom knows, and if mom knows

1015
00:44:27,217 --> 00:44:29,136
she's either gonna
throw me a party

1016
00:44:29,136 --> 00:44:31,346
or I'm getting a lecture
for no follow through.

1017
00:44:31,346 --> 00:44:34,433
Nobody knows anything. What
number do you feel good with?

1018
00:44:40,432 --> 00:44:42,065
No, you know what,

1019
00:44:42,065 --> 00:44:44,985
if they're givin' a lowball
offer, then sale's off.

1020
00:44:44,985 --> 00:44:46,653
Maybe this is the universe
trying to tell me

1021
00:44:46,653 --> 00:44:48,447
I'm not supposed to sell yet.

1022
00:44:48,447 --> 00:44:49,573
Great.

1023
00:44:49,573 --> 00:44:50,824
Except for the part where you

1024
00:44:50,824 --> 00:44:52,701
hate repairing the building.

1025
00:44:52,701 --> 00:44:54,411
I'll figure it out.

1026
00:44:56,255 --> 00:44:57,456
I gotta go.

1027
00:44:58,707 --> 00:45:01,042
- Hey.
- Hey.

1028
00:45:01,042 --> 00:45:04,379
I was hoping to use my charm
to score a ticket.

1029
00:45:04,379 --> 00:45:06,882
Hmm.
Oh, sorry me lady.

1030
00:45:06,882 --> 00:45:09,518
Tonight's show is all sold out.

1031
00:45:11,511 --> 00:45:13,272
But I'm not in
tonight's show anyway,

1032
00:45:13,272 --> 00:45:17,601
so maybe we could take a walk
if you're game.

1033
00:45:17,601 --> 00:45:19,728
I am.

1034
00:45:19,728 --> 00:45:21,730
As long as hot coco's involved.

1035
00:45:21,730 --> 00:45:23,940
I think that could be arranged.

1036
00:45:23,940 --> 00:45:27,027
So has your
coco fixation been filled?

1037
00:45:27,027 --> 00:45:29,538
So filled. This is exactly
what I was craving.

1038
00:45:29,538 --> 00:45:31,832
Thank you.

1039
00:45:33,276 --> 00:45:36,453
You know anything about
the Chamber of Commerce grants?

1040
00:45:36,453 --> 00:45:38,038
Yeah, sure. What about 'em?

1041
00:45:38,038 --> 00:45:40,624
I think I might apply for one.

1042
00:45:40,624 --> 00:45:43,126
Use the money to fix up
the theater.

1043
00:45:43,126 --> 00:45:46,213
That's great.
I'd be happy to help.

1044
00:45:46,213 --> 00:45:49,424
Oh, I know you got a lot in
your plate.

1045
00:45:49,424 --> 00:45:52,719
It's Okay. I don't mind.
You're fun to hang out with.

1046
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,180
You are not too shabby yourself.

1047
00:45:56,389 --> 00:46:00,185
Is this weird?
Us hanging out just because?

1048
00:46:00,185 --> 00:46:03,396
It's not weird for me,
is it weird for you?

1049
00:46:03,396 --> 00:46:05,232
Well, it's just that we
have this arrangement,

1050
00:46:05,232 --> 00:46:06,399
so I don't know.

1051
00:46:06,399 --> 00:46:08,652
We can... we can hang.

1052
00:46:08,652 --> 00:46:10,237
Yeah.

1053
00:46:10,237 --> 00:46:12,289
Just friends hanging out.

1054
00:46:13,659 --> 00:46:15,000
Just friends.

1055
00:46:17,028 --> 00:46:19,454
Mmm.

1056
00:46:19,454 --> 00:46:24,543
Did you know that Shane is
thinking of selling his theater?

1057
00:46:24,543 --> 00:46:25,803
Really?!

1058
00:46:26,830 --> 00:46:30,006
And Aiden is helping him.

1059
00:46:30,006 --> 00:46:31,925
Yeah, they thought
they were being sneaky,

1060
00:46:31,925 --> 00:46:34,094
but I saw some paperwork
at the office.

1061
00:46:34,094 --> 00:46:35,971
Well, when is it
going to go through?

1062
00:46:35,971 --> 00:46:39,107
Hmm. Well, he changed his mind.

1063
00:46:39,107 --> 00:46:42,319
Maybe he wants to stick around
for Lauren.

1064
00:46:43,438 --> 00:46:45,814
Oh, this Lauren.

1065
00:46:45,814 --> 00:46:47,482
Do you think they're good
together?

1066
00:46:47,482 --> 00:46:49,568
I do, yeah.

1067
00:46:49,568 --> 00:46:50,861
She's nice. He's happy.

1068
00:46:50,861 --> 00:46:53,363
What more can we ask for?

1069
00:46:53,363 --> 00:46:55,448
Hmm, I just worry

1070
00:46:55,448 --> 00:46:58,326
they're from such
different backgrounds

1071
00:46:58,326 --> 00:47:00,495
and he doesn't always
know what's best for him.

1072
00:47:00,495 --> 00:47:04,374
Like, why is he holding on to
this dysfunctional theatre?

1073
00:47:04,374 --> 00:47:07,928
Well, you got to trust
he knows what he wants, hmm?

1074
00:47:08,872 --> 00:47:10,347
Does he, though?

1075
00:47:12,626 --> 00:47:16,094
Barbara, what is this about?

1076
00:47:16,094 --> 00:47:19,347
I just want him to be happy.

1077
00:47:29,118 --> 00:47:31,693
- Hello.
- Oh. Are you home?

1078
00:47:31,693 --> 00:47:33,528
Yes.

1079
00:47:33,528 --> 00:47:36,415
Time for Operation Besties.

1080
00:47:36,415 --> 00:47:37,499
Roger that.

1081
00:47:39,494 --> 00:47:42,495
Oh, is this the
Christmas Committee scrapbook?

1082
00:47:42,495 --> 00:47:45,582
Yes. I make one every year
to commemorate what we did.

1083
00:47:45,582 --> 00:47:48,251
Oh, it's just great.

1084
00:47:48,251 --> 00:47:50,837
You really are the perfect
person to run that committee.

1085
00:47:50,837 --> 00:47:52,297
Oh, start.

1086
00:47:53,632 --> 00:47:56,509
Oh. Poor little Shane.

1087
00:47:56,509 --> 00:47:58,386
Oh, yeah,

1088
00:47:58,386 --> 00:48:02,140
that was the first time that I
took him to see Santa Claus.

1089
00:48:02,140 --> 00:48:05,143
Might have been the beginning
of our trust issues.

1090
00:48:05,143 --> 00:48:07,395
Oh, the first time I took Lauren

1091
00:48:07,395 --> 00:48:09,898
to see Santa, she had
just eaten a chocolate bar

1092
00:48:09,898 --> 00:48:11,199
and I thought that I
had cleaned her up,

1093
00:48:11,199 --> 00:48:14,202
but she smeared it
all over Santa's suit.

1094
00:48:14,202 --> 00:48:17,322
Oh, it was a very expensive
dry cleaning bill.

1095
00:48:17,322 --> 00:48:19,708
Plus, I had to send it all the
way back to the North Pole.

1096
00:48:23,789 --> 00:48:24,913
I'm kidding.

1097
00:48:24,913 --> 00:48:27,040
Oh.

1098
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:31,419
Wait a minute. I have an app.
It's a babyface generator.

1099
00:48:31,419 --> 00:48:35,590
It shows what it would look like
if the two of them had a child.

1100
00:48:35,590 --> 00:48:36,925
Oh, good golly.

1101
00:48:36,925 --> 00:48:39,469
What kind of nightmare
is that gonna dream up?

1102
00:48:39,469 --> 00:48:41,096
Oh, look.

1103
00:48:41,096 --> 00:48:43,682
Oh, actually,
they're so cute.

1104
00:48:43,682 --> 00:48:45,558
So cute.

1105
00:48:45,558 --> 00:48:48,478
- Shane's gonna hate it, though.
- Oh, Lauren too.

1106
00:48:48,478 --> 00:48:50,105
This could work.

1107
00:48:50,105 --> 00:48:51,189
I'm just worried that
they're gonna smell

1108
00:48:51,189 --> 00:48:53,492
something fishy a mile away.

1109
00:48:53,492 --> 00:48:55,193
We've got this.

1110
00:48:55,193 --> 00:48:58,405
Shane is terrified
of commitment, and if he thinks

1111
00:48:58,405 --> 00:49:00,448
that we're trying to push
the two of them together,

1112
00:49:00,448 --> 00:49:03,118
he will run in the opposite
direction.

1113
00:49:03,118 --> 00:49:04,911
Yeah, Lauren's gonna
hate the surprise of it

1114
00:49:04,911 --> 00:49:07,247
and not being in
control of the situation.

1115
00:49:07,247 --> 00:49:09,332
- Plus, embarrassing photos.
- Mmm.

1116
00:49:09,332 --> 00:49:12,094
It's totally gonna
throw off her game.

1117
00:49:15,749 --> 00:49:17,182
This is us.

1118
00:49:18,844 --> 00:49:20,227
Thanks for the walk.

1119
00:49:21,271 --> 00:49:23,346
Thanks for taking me
to get my car.

1120
00:49:23,346 --> 00:49:27,142
My mom borrowed it for some
kind of Santa emergency.

1121
00:49:27,142 --> 00:49:29,686
It's not Christmas without
a Santa emergency.

1122
00:49:29,686 --> 00:49:31,321
Yep.

1123
00:49:33,433 --> 00:49:36,693
So is your mom's van ever gonna
get out of the shop?

1124
00:49:36,693 --> 00:49:39,246
Who knows?

1125
00:49:42,067 --> 00:49:43,867
That's my mom's car.

1126
00:49:43,867 --> 00:49:45,660
What's she doing here?

1127
00:49:45,660 --> 00:49:46,628
Uh.

1128
00:49:56,463 --> 00:49:59,307
<i>♪ Up on the housetop,
the reindeer pause ♪</i>

1129
00:49:59,307 --> 00:50:02,469

00:50:02,469 --> 00:50:05,513

1134
00:50:13,021 --> 00:50:15,648
Oh!

1135
00:50:15,648 --> 00:50:17,692
You two are hanging out?

1136
00:50:17,692 --> 00:50:22,197
Yeah, well, Kath was telling me
about how she and Lauren have

1137
00:50:22,197 --> 00:50:24,407
this tradition
of Christmas karaoke.

1138
00:50:24,407 --> 00:50:26,785
She's never done
Christmas karaoke.

1139
00:50:26,785 --> 00:50:29,704
And since you two
are getting so close,

1140
00:50:29,704 --> 00:50:32,499
I thought we'd better exchange
Christmas traditions since

1141
00:50:32,499 --> 00:50:36,336
someday we're gonna be
one big happy family.

1142
00:50:36,336 --> 00:50:39,339
I love Christmas traditions.

1143
00:50:39,339 --> 00:50:41,633
You know what else
you're gonna love?

1144
00:50:41,633 --> 00:50:43,093
Baby photos.

1145
00:50:43,093 --> 00:50:45,312
Barb and I made
you a scrapbook

1146
00:50:45,312 --> 00:50:47,055
because you look
so cute together.

1147
00:50:47,055 --> 00:50:49,357
That was really not necessary.

1148
00:50:49,357 --> 00:50:51,610
Oh, you're gonna have some
darn cute kids.

1149
00:50:51,610 --> 00:50:52,852
Okay, mom!

1150
00:50:55,063 --> 00:50:56,648
I think
I'm gonna leave now.

1151
00:50:56,648 --> 00:51:00,110
Wait, I meant to give you
my business card.

1152
00:51:00,110 --> 00:51:02,370
- Yes.
- Uh...

1153
00:51:02,370 --> 00:51:04,697
You can include it in your
grant application.

1154
00:51:04,697 --> 00:51:06,875
Direct them to me if
they have any questions

1155
00:51:06,875 --> 00:51:08,243
about your renovations.

1156
00:51:08,243 --> 00:51:10,829
Grant applications? Renovations?

1157
00:51:10,829 --> 00:51:12,831
Oh, well, Lauren inspired me.

1158
00:51:12,831 --> 00:51:14,332
If I really loved the theatre,

1159
00:51:14,332 --> 00:51:16,960
I had to put my
whole heart into it.

1160
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:18,386
Go all in to make it work.

1161
00:51:18,386 --> 00:51:21,640
That's wonderful, honey.
It really is.

1162
00:51:23,716 --> 00:51:24,759
You know what I brought?

1163
00:51:24,759 --> 00:51:26,394
For us to watch

1164
00:51:26,394 --> 00:51:30,014
your junior high performance
of <i>"The Nutcracker."</i>

1165
00:51:30,014 --> 00:51:32,267
Actually, we maybe
should partake

1166
00:51:32,267 --> 00:51:34,602
in some of the
Christmas karaoke action.

1167
00:51:34,602 --> 00:51:37,313
Oh, Lauren doesn't like singing
in front of other people.

1168
00:51:37,313 --> 00:51:41,234
I could maybe try a duet.

1169
00:51:41,234 --> 00:51:42,443
- Yeah, great, great.
- Oh.

1170
00:51:42,443 --> 00:51:44,287
- That's good.
- Um.

1171
00:51:44,287 --> 00:51:46,623
Oh, uh, wait, microphones.

1172
00:51:50,879 --> 00:51:51,995
Okay, what do we got?

1173
00:51:54,122 --> 00:51:56,875
<i>♪ Jingle Bells jingle bells ♪</i>

1174
00:51:56,875 --> 00:51:59,627
<i>♪ Jingle all the way ♪</i>

1175
00:51:59,627 --> 00:52:04,841
<i>♪ Oh, what fun it is to ride
in a one horse open sleigh ♪</i>

1176
00:52:04,841 --> 00:52:05,884
<i>♪ Hey! ♪</i>

1177
00:52:07,093 --> 00:52:09,146
You're a natural.

1178
00:52:14,219 --> 00:52:15,902
Thank you
for coming to help.

1179
00:52:15,902 --> 00:52:18,521
No problem.

1180
00:52:18,521 --> 00:52:20,440
Dad always wants to help with
the toy drive,

1181
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:22,659
but his gifts look like
they were wrapped

1182
00:52:22,659 --> 00:52:24,411
by a crazy raccoon.

1183
00:52:24,411 --> 00:52:26,821
Deranged woodland creatures
aren't the wrapping vibe

1184
00:52:26,821 --> 00:52:28,156
you were going for?

1185
00:52:28,156 --> 00:52:31,284
- I'll see myself out.
- Ha-ha.

1186
00:52:31,284 --> 00:52:34,287
So I hear you
had fun last night.

1187
00:52:34,287 --> 00:52:37,415
- With Lauren.
- Wow!

1188
00:52:37,415 --> 00:52:39,918
The gossip train never ends
in this family.

1189
00:52:39,918 --> 00:52:41,511
So is it serious?

1190
00:52:43,206 --> 00:52:45,840
I...I-I don't know.

1191
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,425
No, no, don't do this.

1192
00:52:47,425 --> 00:52:49,260
Do not sabotage a good thing
because you are

1193
00:52:49,260 --> 00:52:51,304
commitment-phobic, okay?

1194
00:52:51,304 --> 00:52:53,139
Hey, it's not that. It's just...

1195
00:52:55,892 --> 00:52:57,560
Can I tell you a secret?

1196
00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:58,528
Of course.

1197
00:52:59,681 --> 00:53:01,448
It's not real.

1198
00:53:01,448 --> 00:53:03,399
Lauren and I have
been pretending to date

1199
00:53:03,399 --> 00:53:05,902
over the holidays to keep
our moms off our backs.

1200
00:53:05,902 --> 00:53:07,654
What?!

1201
00:53:07,654 --> 00:53:10,448
So you're saying you don't
really like her?

1202
00:53:10,448 --> 00:53:13,201
I-I mean, that's the problem.

1203
00:53:13,201 --> 00:53:15,328
I think I kinda do.

1204
00:53:15,328 --> 00:53:17,672
I just don't know if she feels
the same way.

1205
00:53:18,866 --> 00:53:21,209
Well, um, call me crazy,

1206
00:53:21,209 --> 00:53:23,970
but there's a way
that you could find out.

1207
00:53:23,970 --> 00:53:25,588
You could ask her.

1208
00:53:25,588 --> 00:53:27,123
Oh.

1209
00:53:27,123 --> 00:53:29,592
Look, for somebody who makes
himself vulnerable on stage

1210
00:53:29,592 --> 00:53:31,978
every night, it wouldn't kill
you to channel a little bit

1211
00:53:31,978 --> 00:53:33,388
of that into your personal life.

1212
00:53:33,388 --> 00:53:35,982
What if I come on too strong?

1213
00:53:35,982 --> 00:53:37,976
Just start small.

1214
00:53:37,976 --> 00:53:40,311
Something to let her know that
you're thinking about her.

1215
00:53:52,907 --> 00:53:55,660
- Hey. Um.
- Hey.

1216
00:53:55,660 --> 00:53:57,704
I know you're busy, but I
brought you some of those

1217
00:53:57,704 --> 00:54:00,206
cookies you like from
the holiday market.

1218
00:54:00,206 --> 00:54:01,958
The ones my grandma used to
make?

1219
00:54:01,958 --> 00:54:03,376
Yeah.

1220
00:54:03,376 --> 00:54:05,553
Thank you. Wow. I needed this.

1221
00:54:07,590 --> 00:54:11,017
- I'll let you get back to it.
- No. Stay for a minute.

1222
00:54:11,017 --> 00:54:13,311
- Have one with me.
- Sure.

1223
00:54:13,921 --> 00:54:15,096
Here.

1224
00:54:15,096 --> 00:54:17,274
How's the building coming along?

1225
00:54:17,274 --> 00:54:19,392
Uh, I don't know.

1226
00:54:19,392 --> 00:54:22,645
Honestly, I'm... trying to
give them what they want,

1227
00:54:22,645 --> 00:54:25,532
but they keep changing
their minds.

1228
00:54:25,532 --> 00:54:27,400
Sounds like they don't know
what they want.

1229
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:30,111
Yeah, sounds like it.

1230
00:54:30,111 --> 00:54:31,904
Well, then you decide.

1231
00:54:31,904 --> 00:54:34,499
Show them something they didn't
even know they needed.

1232
00:54:36,319 --> 00:54:39,254
- You did all this?
- Yeah.

1233
00:54:40,448 --> 00:54:42,757
This is amazing.

1234
00:54:44,077 --> 00:54:46,002
Thank you.

1235
00:54:46,002 --> 00:54:48,421
How's your grant coming along?

1236
00:54:48,421 --> 00:54:53,384
Uh... You know, it's a lot of
paperwork.

1237
00:54:53,384 --> 00:54:56,512
Yeah, but it'll be worth it.

1238
00:54:56,512 --> 00:54:59,474
It's kinda like when you go on
a really tough hike,

1239
00:54:59,474 --> 00:55:01,434
but then you reach the view
at the top.

1240
00:55:01,434 --> 00:55:03,778
The effort is part
of the experience.

1241
00:55:05,899 --> 00:55:08,274
You have a knack for making
the mundane and boring

1242
00:55:08,274 --> 00:55:10,193
sound almost magical.

1243
00:55:10,193 --> 00:55:12,445
<i>Almost.</i>

1244
00:55:12,445 --> 00:55:14,581
Well, it's the life
of an architect.

1245
00:55:14,581 --> 00:55:18,284
It's kinda how all that
turns into that

1246
00:55:18,284 --> 00:55:20,828
and then turns into this.

1247
00:55:22,830 --> 00:55:24,299
To your business.

1248
00:55:27,995 --> 00:55:30,463
To your theater.

1249
00:55:30,463 --> 00:55:33,007
- Oh, wow.
- The sugars.

1250
00:55:33,007 --> 00:55:34,351
Why, it's delicious.

1251
00:55:34,351 --> 00:55:37,470
Mmm. Mm. So good.

1252
00:55:37,470 --> 00:55:39,647
All right.

1253
00:55:42,093 --> 00:55:44,894
Really? Ugh!

1254
00:55:44,894 --> 00:55:46,312
What's going on?

1255
00:55:46,312 --> 00:55:48,523
They don't have a record of us
reserving the hall

1256
00:55:48,523 --> 00:55:50,817
for the dance, but I know
we paid for it.

1257
00:55:50,817 --> 00:55:53,661
- Give me a minute.
- Um, could you hold, please?

1258
00:55:57,066 --> 00:55:58,333
Got it.

1259
00:56:00,278 --> 00:56:02,829
Hello. To whom am I speaking?

1260
00:56:02,829 --> 00:56:06,499
Hi, Gerald. Yes, we paid for the
reservation in June.

1261
00:56:06,499 --> 00:56:08,543
June 13th to be exact.

1262
00:56:08,543 --> 00:56:11,546
Yes, the reference number
is 1-8-3-5-0.

1263
00:56:11,546 --> 00:56:15,466
Uh-huh. Might wanna
straighten out those books.

1264
00:56:15,466 --> 00:56:18,719
Well, no worries.
We'll see you then. Thank you.

1265
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:20,972
That was all in your
spreadsheet?

1266
00:56:20,972 --> 00:56:22,399
Mm-hmm.

1267
00:56:22,399 --> 00:56:25,560
I digitized and uploaded
all of the receipts

1268
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:28,521
and then I hyperlinked them
to the budget line items.

1269
00:56:28,521 --> 00:56:31,616
- It's like magic. Thank you.
- You're welcome.

1270
00:56:33,686 --> 00:56:35,736
- Hey, mom.
- Oh, hi, honey.

1271
00:56:35,736 --> 00:56:38,781
Oh, you are my savior.
Thank you for bringing this.

1272
00:56:38,781 --> 00:56:42,243
- I can't believe I forgot it.
- Well, you have a lot going on.

1273
00:56:42,243 --> 00:56:44,162
Have you talked to your brother?

1274
00:56:44,162 --> 00:56:45,463
Yes.

1275
00:56:46,249 --> 00:56:47,248
About Lauren?

1276
00:56:47,248 --> 00:56:49,417
Mother, you have to stop

1277
00:56:49,417 --> 00:56:51,586
with all of this meddling.
He is a grown man.

1278
00:56:51,586 --> 00:56:55,256
I know that.
I just want my sons to be happy.

1279
00:56:55,256 --> 00:56:58,259
Listen, I know that retirement

1280
00:56:58,259 --> 00:56:59,927
may not be the easiest thing
for you.

1281
00:56:59,927 --> 00:57:03,014
Why does everybody keep
saying that? I am just fine.

1282
00:57:03,014 --> 00:57:06,517
Okay, great, but you're
making Shane do crazy things

1283
00:57:06,517 --> 00:57:08,194
like this thing with Lauren.

1284
00:57:08,194 --> 00:57:10,947
What are you talking about?

1285
00:57:10,947 --> 00:57:12,565
Forget I said anything.

1286
00:57:12,565 --> 00:57:15,109
No, you said something, so I
can't forget you said anything.

1287
00:57:15,109 --> 00:57:18,404
What about him and Lauren?
Come on, spill the beans.

1288
00:57:18,404 --> 00:57:20,957
Okay, well, um, Shane told me

1289
00:57:20,957 --> 00:57:23,618
that he is just pretending
to date Lauren

1290
00:57:23,618 --> 00:57:26,212
to get you off of his back.

1291
00:57:26,212 --> 00:57:28,206
It's not real, mom.

1292
00:57:28,206 --> 00:57:29,924
But you didn't hear that
from me.

1293
00:57:31,344 --> 00:57:33,878
- I'll see you tonight.
- Okay.

1294
00:57:40,169 --> 00:57:45,264
<i>♪ Jolly old St. Nicholas

1296

1297
00:57:52,313 --> 00:57:54,440
Love trolley caroling.

1298
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,817
I think this is the best event
you guys do.

1299
00:57:56,817 --> 00:57:58,528
- We'll save you some seats.
- Okay.

1300
00:57:58,528 --> 00:57:59,954
See you guys.

1301
00:58:01,324 --> 00:58:02,865
Kath, it is time to go.

1302
00:58:02,865 --> 00:58:04,617
Our events can't all
start as late

1303
00:58:04,617 --> 00:58:06,118
as your
Christmas Committee meetings.

1304
00:58:06,118 --> 00:58:09,547
- Oh, sorry about that.
- It's okay. Chop-chop.

1305
00:58:12,535 --> 00:58:13,960
Lauren isn't here yet.

1306
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,262
Well, we just have to tell
Yolanda to wait.

1307
00:58:16,262 --> 00:58:17,672
I can't do that.

1308
00:58:17,672 --> 00:58:19,757
One of these days, you're gonna
have to stand up

1309
00:58:19,757 --> 00:58:23,269
to her, or she'll never
take you seriously.

1310
00:58:23,269 --> 00:58:25,271
Oh, gosh.

1311
00:58:41,364 --> 00:58:42,488
Wait!

1312
00:58:46,294 --> 00:58:47,752
- Hey.
- Hey.

1313
00:59:01,042 --> 00:59:06,012
<i>♪ O Christmas tree,

1315
00:59:11,058 --> 00:59:12,893
Tell me. Truly.

1316
00:59:12,893 --> 00:59:15,029
Why can't you stand up
to Yolanda?

1317
00:59:17,058 --> 00:59:19,233
After I got divorced,
I really needed

1318
00:59:19,233 --> 00:59:21,068
a job, and she gave me one.

1319
00:59:21,068 --> 00:59:23,446
I guess I'm just afraid that I'm
gonna say something that will

1320
00:59:23,446 --> 00:59:25,281
upset her and then
she can fire me.

1321
00:59:25,281 --> 00:59:27,742
It's not good to live in fear.

1322
00:59:27,742 --> 00:59:30,336
And you're such a tremendous
asset to the chamber.

1323
00:59:30,336 --> 00:59:33,789
I think she might surprise you,
and you might surprise yourself.

1324
00:59:33,789 --> 00:59:37,594
Okay, right now we have to focus
on Lauren and Shane.

1325
00:59:37,594 --> 00:59:39,545
Okay, I put off telling you this

1326
00:59:39,545 --> 00:59:41,672
because I don't
know how to say it,

1327
00:59:41,672 --> 00:59:45,718
but... my son Aiden told me

1328
00:59:45,718 --> 00:59:48,354
that Shane is just
pretending to date Lauren

1329
00:59:48,354 --> 00:59:50,222
to get me off his back.

1330
00:59:50,222 --> 00:59:51,849
What?!

1331
00:59:51,849 --> 00:59:54,810
Oh, she's gonna be devastated.

1332
00:59:54,810 --> 00:59:56,729
- I'm gonna kill him.
- No, no, no.

1333
00:59:56,729 --> 00:59:58,865
Before we commit any felonies,

1334
00:59:58,865 --> 01:00:01,734
what if you can
get Lauren to end it?

1335
01:00:01,734 --> 01:00:04,912
So if she walks away,
there's no heartbreak.

1336
01:00:05,773 --> 01:00:07,323
I'm going to talk to Lauren.

1337
01:00:07,323 --> 01:00:09,241
Good.

1338
01:00:09,241 --> 01:00:10,868
I'm really glad you came.

1339
01:00:10,868 --> 01:00:13,746
Me too. Sorry I was almost late.

1340
01:00:13,746 --> 01:00:16,883
I have a hard time
taking a break from work.

1341
01:00:16,883 --> 01:00:20,386
You know you can set boundaries.
Say no.

1342
01:00:20,386 --> 01:00:22,639
That terrifies me.

1343
01:00:22,639 --> 01:00:25,141
Why?

1344
01:00:25,141 --> 01:00:27,760
I don't know, I guess
ever since I was a little kid,

1345
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:32,056
I... always wanted to be
the best at everything,

1346
01:00:32,056 --> 01:00:36,727
so I got into this habit
of trying to be perfect

1347
01:00:36,727 --> 01:00:39,105
at the expense
of everything else.

1348
01:00:39,105 --> 01:00:42,650
Call me a perfectionist.

1349
01:00:42,650 --> 01:00:44,652
I promise you all that stress
isn't worth it.

1350
01:00:44,652 --> 01:00:46,913
Otherwise one day you might
wake up and find

1351
01:00:46,913 --> 01:00:49,165
your whole life
has passed you by.

1352
01:00:51,167 --> 01:00:52,627
You're right.

1353
01:00:54,947 --> 01:00:58,290
And in the spirit of that...

1354
01:00:58,290 --> 01:01:03,012
what do you think about going
to the Christmas ball together?

1355
01:01:05,082 --> 01:01:07,892
I will be honored, me lady.

1356
01:01:09,170 --> 01:01:11,929
I know it's not really
in line with our whole

1357
01:01:11,929 --> 01:01:15,641
fake date arrangement,
but I, uh...

1358
01:01:15,641 --> 01:01:18,310
I-I don't know, I just think...

1359
01:01:18,310 --> 01:01:20,146
I'm gonna level with you.

1360
01:01:21,897 --> 01:01:24,817
I've had more fun pretending to
date you than I ever have

1361
01:01:24,817 --> 01:01:26,694
actually dating anyone for real.

1362
01:01:26,694 --> 01:01:30,156
And I know that it's not
a part of our agreement,

1363
01:01:30,156 --> 01:01:33,033
but what if we just stop
the whole fake part

1364
01:01:33,033 --> 01:01:37,755
of this fake dating arrangement
and... actually did it for real?

1365
01:01:40,701 --> 01:01:41,667
I don't know.

1366
01:01:41,667 --> 01:01:43,169
I mean, my work is crazy

1367
01:01:43,169 --> 01:01:46,547
and I... I'm really
bad at boundaries

1368
01:01:46,547 --> 01:01:48,883
and prioritizing
my social life.

1369
01:01:48,883 --> 01:01:51,927
I-I, I mean, you'd go crazy
trying to date me.

1370
01:01:51,927 --> 01:01:55,431
I don't--
Forget I said anything.

1371
01:01:57,984 --> 01:02:03,072
But... every part of me
wants to... try.

1372
01:02:05,318 --> 01:02:07,076
So that's a...

1373
01:02:09,188 --> 01:02:10,237
Yes.

1374

1377
01:02:36,799 --> 01:02:39,433
I don't think you should see
Shane anymore.

1378
01:02:39,433 --> 01:02:40,976
What are you talking about?

1379
01:02:40,976 --> 01:02:43,354
Well, Barbara told me some
things about him and--

1380
01:02:43,354 --> 01:02:45,898
Barbara. Who you hate?

1381
01:02:45,898 --> 01:02:49,076
I don't hate her,
but he's not a good guy.

1382
01:02:50,479 --> 01:02:52,738
Why?

1383
01:02:52,738 --> 01:02:54,615
Honey, can you please
just trust me?

1384
01:02:54,615 --> 01:02:56,876
I don't want you to get hurt.

1385
01:02:57,987 --> 01:02:59,370
You've been all about me dating,

1386
01:02:59,370 --> 01:03:01,914
and now that I am,
you don't want me to get hurt.

1387
01:03:01,914 --> 01:03:05,125
Well, well, I don't think he's
being upfront with you.

1388
01:03:05,125 --> 01:03:08,212
Mom, I love you, but I've been
trying to tell you

1389
01:03:08,212 --> 01:03:11,048
this whole time.
It's my life, I can handle it.

1390
01:03:11,048 --> 01:03:13,059
Well, excuse me for wanting to
be a part of it.

1391
01:03:13,059 --> 01:03:15,386
I mean, can't a mom want her
daughter to be happy?

1392
01:03:15,386 --> 01:03:18,222
Of course. But maybe
one way for me to be happy

1393
01:03:18,222 --> 01:03:20,891
is to not have you
on my case all the time.

1394
01:03:20,891 --> 01:03:23,277
Stop using me as an excuse
to ignore your own life.

1395
01:03:24,322 --> 01:03:25,396
I am not.

1396
01:03:25,396 --> 01:03:26,647
Then how about you live

1397
01:03:26,647 --> 01:03:28,816
your very fulfilled life
and I'll live mine.

1398
01:03:28,816 --> 01:03:31,869
And you can please
stay out of my business.

1399
01:03:34,815 --> 01:03:37,583
Wait... mom, I...

1400
01:03:48,319 --> 01:03:50,379
Please, have a cinnamon roll.

1401
01:03:50,379 --> 01:03:53,340
I'm trying out new recipes
for Christmas morning.

1402
01:03:53,340 --> 01:03:56,218
Carbs are the last thing that I
need right now.

1403
01:03:56,218 --> 01:03:58,220
Carbs are exactly what I need
right now.

1404
01:03:58,220 --> 01:04:00,523
- Oh.
- I completely understand.

1405
01:04:01,967 --> 01:04:05,102
Lauren is so mad at me.

1406
01:04:05,102 --> 01:04:06,770
She says that I put
too much effort into her

1407
01:04:06,770 --> 01:04:08,647
and not enough to myself.

1408
01:04:08,647 --> 01:04:10,283
Well, she's not wrong.

1409
01:04:10,283 --> 01:04:12,234
Okay, well, it doesn't make it
easy to hear.

1410
01:04:12,234 --> 01:04:13,861
Well, you don't
have to listen to me.

1411
01:04:13,861 --> 01:04:16,414
I'm not exactly the queen
of parenting advice.

1412
01:04:18,192 --> 01:04:21,252
Maybe if you were, like,
tad more vulnerable.

1413
01:04:23,238 --> 01:04:25,298
Hmm, it's just not my style.

1414
01:04:25,298 --> 01:04:27,049
Okay, but that still doesn't
solve the problem.

1415
01:04:27,049 --> 01:04:29,302
Shane is gonna break
Lauren's heart.

1416
01:04:29,302 --> 01:04:32,379
I mean, I tried telling her,
but she wouldn't listen to me.

1417
01:04:32,379 --> 01:04:36,434
Well... it's time for me
to talk to her.

1418
01:04:37,962 --> 01:04:40,146
Coming from me,
she'll have to believe it.

1419
01:04:48,323 --> 01:04:50,823
- Hey.
- Hey. I just emailed you.

1420
01:04:50,823 --> 01:04:52,232
They came back
with a fair offer.

1421
01:04:52,232 --> 01:04:56,779
Yeah, I saw it.
That is a lot of... oh, money.

1422
01:04:56,779 --> 01:04:59,740
Yeah. You could buy a house,

1423
01:04:59,740 --> 01:05:04,578
travel the world twice over,
or you could stay and fix it up.

1424
01:05:04,578 --> 01:05:07,748
I don't know anything
about construction,

1425
01:05:07,748 --> 01:05:11,210
and I don't think this grant is
gonna cover hiring someone.

1426
01:05:11,210 --> 01:05:12,920
Okay, is this about
your handyman skills

1427
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:14,546
or about staying for Lauren?

1428
01:05:15,598 --> 01:05:17,299
I have to sell it, right?

1429
01:05:17,299 --> 01:05:19,602
I can't change my plans
for a girl I just met.

1430
01:05:19,602 --> 01:05:21,228
But do you want to?

1431
01:05:30,848 --> 01:05:33,399
- Hey.
- Hey.

1432
01:05:33,399 --> 01:05:36,318
So the client wants to
have the coffee shop

1433
01:05:36,318 --> 01:05:39,738
back in the lobby
with the restaurant.

1434
01:05:39,738 --> 01:05:41,624
- Seriously?
- Yes.

1435
01:05:41,624 --> 01:05:44,284
But tell me if it's too much
to do before the pitch,

1436
01:05:44,284 --> 01:05:47,380
I can push back. Tell them it's
not possible for the timeline.

1437
01:05:47,380 --> 01:05:50,708
Look, think about it
and let me know.

1438
01:06:08,653 --> 01:06:10,686
Gang, we did it again.

1439
01:06:10,686 --> 01:06:12,896
We deployed Christmas Joy.

1440
01:06:12,896 --> 01:06:16,066
Another successful season.

1441
01:06:16,066 --> 01:06:17,317
We couldn't have done it
without you, Barbara.

1442
01:06:17,317 --> 01:06:19,862
Oh, oh, no, I'm sure
you could have.

1443
01:06:19,862 --> 01:06:21,864
Ah, you're part of us now.

1444
01:06:21,864 --> 01:06:24,033
- Group hug.
- Oh. Oh.

1445
01:06:42,127 --> 01:06:43,260
How are you?

1446
01:06:43,260 --> 01:06:44,562
- How are you?
- I'm good.

1447
01:06:48,768 --> 01:06:51,226
Hey, cut loose.

1448
01:06:51,226 --> 01:06:53,562
Have some fun.
This is a great party.

1449
01:06:53,562 --> 01:06:54,572
Uh-huh.

1450
01:06:59,144 --> 01:07:01,454
Is this about Shane?

1451
01:07:01,454 --> 01:07:04,073
Honey, you have gotta stop
worrying about him.

1452
01:07:04,073 --> 01:07:06,709
Without my job what am I?

1453
01:07:06,709 --> 01:07:08,702
A wife? A mom?

1454
01:07:08,702 --> 01:07:12,122
I just wanna make sure
that my children are okay.

1455
01:07:12,122 --> 01:07:15,417
- Is that so wrong?
- No, it's not wrong. I...

1456
01:07:15,417 --> 01:07:17,419
Your job does
not define you. Okay?

1457
01:07:17,419 --> 01:07:19,421
And neither does
being a wife or a mom.

1458
01:07:19,421 --> 01:07:22,725
You are all those things
and the person you are.

1459
01:07:22,725 --> 01:07:24,435
- Mmm.
- Hmm.

1460
01:07:27,732 --> 01:07:29,056
- Oh, excuse me.
- Mmm.

1461
01:07:34,313 --> 01:07:36,980
- Barbara. Hi.
- Hi.

1462
01:07:36,980 --> 01:07:40,609
- I need to talk to you.
- Okay.

1463
01:07:40,609 --> 01:07:45,372
I'm afraid that Shane might be
using you to get back at me.

1464
01:07:46,325 --> 01:07:50,211
- Using me?
- Pretending to date you.

1465
01:07:52,156 --> 01:07:54,832
Oh, yeah.

1466
01:07:54,832 --> 01:07:56,959
- About that--
- Wait.

1467
01:07:56,959 --> 01:07:58,511
- You knew?
- Yes.

1468
01:07:58,511 --> 01:08:00,963
We were both pretending
to date each other.

1469
01:08:00,963 --> 01:08:02,464
- Both of you?
- Well...

1470
01:08:02,464 --> 01:08:04,591
we knew you and my mom wanted
to set us up,

1471
01:08:04,591 --> 01:08:07,845
so we decided to pretend
to date until Christmas.

1472
01:08:07,845 --> 01:08:10,097
Just buy some time.

1473
01:08:10,097 --> 01:08:14,017
But... I don't know,
I guess then we...

1474
01:08:14,017 --> 01:08:15,277
we really fell for each other.

1475
01:08:15,277 --> 01:08:17,646
So, we're gonna try
to make it work.

1476
01:08:17,646 --> 01:08:20,149
I see. Do you really think
it <i>can</i> work?

1477
01:08:20,149 --> 01:08:21,650
I mean, you're both
so different.

1478
01:08:21,650 --> 01:08:24,111
And now that Shane's selling
his theater, it's--

1479
01:08:24,111 --> 01:08:26,029
Wait, he's selling his theater.

1480
01:08:26,029 --> 01:08:27,281
Hey, everything okay?

1481
01:08:27,281 --> 01:08:28,949
Hey. Yeah. Uh, um...

1482
01:08:28,949 --> 01:08:32,703
Your mom just told me you
decided to sell your theater.

1483
01:08:36,375 --> 01:08:37,800
I was gonna tell you.

1484
01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:40,803
- Oh, gosh. I assumed you knew.
- Mom, can you not?

1485
01:08:40,803 --> 01:08:43,505
I'm sorry. I was worried.
I was trying to help.

1486
01:08:43,505 --> 01:08:46,592
Well, just stop.
Just stop trying to help.

1487
01:08:46,592 --> 01:08:49,011
- You are unbelievable.
- Sweetheart, you must be upset.

1488
01:08:49,011 --> 01:08:52,314
I mean, we were just trying to
end it before it went too far.

1489
01:08:52,314 --> 01:08:53,807
- What?!
- You tried to what?

1490
01:08:53,807 --> 01:08:55,267
Well, honey, we knew it was
never gonna work.

1491
01:08:55,267 --> 01:08:56,226
I mean, you're so driven.

1492
01:08:56,226 --> 01:08:58,020
And he's an actor.

1493
01:08:58,020 --> 01:08:59,938
- Excuse me?
<i>- You</i> set us up.

1494
01:08:59,938 --> 01:09:02,482
Well, that was before I knew
he was playing you.

1495
01:09:02,482 --> 01:09:04,067
- I'm not.
- He wasn't.

1496
01:09:04,067 --> 01:09:05,569
We...

1497
01:09:05,569 --> 01:09:07,321
You know what?

1498
01:09:07,321 --> 01:09:10,032
I can't with this right now.

1499
01:09:10,032 --> 01:09:12,409
Um, Shane, it's been fun, really.

1500
01:09:12,409 --> 01:09:14,036
But this is just too much.

1501
01:09:14,036 --> 01:09:15,662
I... I can't date right now,

1502
01:09:15,662 --> 01:09:19,166
pretend or otherwise,
not with all this drama.

1503
01:09:19,166 --> 01:09:21,343
You and your mom clearly
can't communicate.

1504
01:09:21,343 --> 01:09:24,305
And it's pretty obvious
I can't trust mine.

1505
01:09:25,624 --> 01:09:29,435
Good luck with everything.
I have to get back to work.

1506
01:09:30,254 --> 01:09:31,220
- Lauren.
- No, seriously.

1507
01:09:31,220 --> 01:09:33,230
I have a lot to do, Shane.

1508
01:09:39,054 --> 01:09:40,362
Why did you get involved?

1509
01:09:40,362 --> 01:09:42,356
I thought it was
the right thing to do.

1510
01:09:42,356 --> 01:09:44,816
Contrary to popular belief,

1511
01:09:44,816 --> 01:09:47,328
you don't always know
the right thing to do.

1512
01:09:52,150 --> 01:09:55,202
Wait... he wasn't playing her?

1513
01:09:55,202 --> 01:09:57,579
Lauren was in on the ruse.

1514
01:09:57,579 --> 01:09:59,998
So they actually
like each other.

1515
01:09:59,998 --> 01:10:01,375
I guess so, it seems like it.

1516
01:10:01,375 --> 01:10:03,385
Oh, why did I ever
listen to you?

1517
01:10:03,385 --> 01:10:05,754
- You started it.
- What?

1518
01:10:05,754 --> 01:10:08,048
Lauren and I had a great
relationship before this.

1519
01:10:08,048 --> 01:10:11,393
Oh, really? 'Cause it seems to
me like she's got her own thing

1520
01:10:11,393 --> 01:10:14,596
going and you are clinging on
for dear life.

1521
01:10:14,596 --> 01:10:17,057
What, unlike you,
who forces yourself

1522
01:10:17,057 --> 01:10:20,903
into Shane's life because you
have got nothing else to do.

1523
01:10:20,903 --> 01:10:24,564
Nothing else to do except
rescue this Christmas Committee

1524
01:10:24,564 --> 01:10:27,409
from utter chaos
and disorganization.

1525
01:10:27,409 --> 01:10:29,653
We were doing just fine
before you.

1526
01:10:29,653 --> 01:10:31,405
You think so because
you have no idea

1527
01:10:31,405 --> 01:10:32,823
how anything in
the real world works.

1528
01:10:32,823 --> 01:10:36,618
Kath, what's going on here?

1529
01:10:36,618 --> 01:10:39,913
Yolanda, you know that I
love the Christmas Committee.

1530
01:10:39,913 --> 01:10:41,873
Would do anything
for the Chamber of Commerce.

1531
01:10:41,873 --> 01:10:44,418
But I cannot continue working
with Barbara.

1532
01:10:44,418 --> 01:10:46,670
If she stays, I go.

1533
01:10:46,670 --> 01:10:49,631
Are you seriously gonna make her
choose between us?

1534
01:10:49,631 --> 01:10:53,302
Yeah, obviously
we can't lose you,

1535
01:10:53,302 --> 01:10:55,470
but I couldn't
possibly choose--

1536
01:10:55,470 --> 01:10:59,400
Oh, no, you, you don't have to.
I quit.

1537
01:11:16,452 --> 01:11:19,253
- You wanted to see me?
- Yes.

1538
01:11:19,253 --> 01:11:23,707
Yolanda, I wanna talk to you
about my role moving forward.

1539
01:11:23,707 --> 01:11:24,833
You're not trying to quit again,
are you?

1540
01:11:24,833 --> 01:11:27,836
- No. I love working here.
- Okay.

1541
01:11:27,836 --> 01:11:29,463
But I'm not your assistant
anymore,

1542
01:11:29,463 --> 01:11:31,506
and I have my own way
of doing things.

1543
01:11:31,506 --> 01:11:33,642
Of course you do.

1544
01:11:33,642 --> 01:11:36,053
Kath, you are extremely valuable
to the Chamber of Commerce,

1545
01:11:36,053 --> 01:11:38,722
and I'm sorry I keep treating
you like my assistant.

1546
01:11:38,722 --> 01:11:41,308
You were my
right hand for forever and...

1547
01:11:41,308 --> 01:11:43,894
I forget sometimes,
but of course,

1548
01:11:43,894 --> 01:11:45,645
you should run the committee
however you see fit.

1549
01:11:45,645 --> 01:11:48,231
I-I couldn't do this
without you.

1550
01:11:48,231 --> 01:11:50,525
I know.

1551
01:11:50,525 --> 01:11:52,661
Happy Secret Santa Day.

1552
01:11:52,661 --> 01:11:54,905
- Hi!
- Who's been nice?

1553
01:11:54,905 --> 01:11:57,532
Barbara wanted me to drop off
the Secret Santa gift.

1554
01:11:57,532 --> 01:12:00,410
It's for you.
Is she not joining us?

1555
01:12:00,410 --> 01:12:03,372
- Uh, no, she's not.
- Open it.

1556
01:12:11,331 --> 01:12:13,432
Oh.

1557
01:12:22,443 --> 01:12:23,942
Here, honey.

1558
01:12:29,266 --> 01:12:30,941
Have you talked to Shane?

1559
01:12:30,941 --> 01:12:32,701
No.

1560
01:12:32,701 --> 01:12:35,454
Go ahead and say it.
You were right.

1561
01:12:35,454 --> 01:12:38,198
I should never have
meddled in his life.

1562
01:12:38,198 --> 01:12:42,577
Well, I want everyone to be
happy, especially you.

1563
01:12:42,577 --> 01:12:45,539
And... it seems like

1564
01:12:45,539 --> 01:12:49,468
after the stress of you
being newly retired,

1565
01:12:49,468 --> 01:12:51,461
hanging out with Kath
made you happy.

1566
01:12:51,461 --> 01:12:52,671
Oh, please.

1567
01:12:52,671 --> 01:12:54,131
I was pretty happy before

1568
01:12:54,131 --> 01:12:55,974
I ever laid eyes on that woman.

1569
01:13:03,467 --> 01:13:05,100
Oh.

1570
01:13:05,100 --> 01:13:07,319
What are you doing here?

1571
01:13:07,319 --> 01:13:08,728
Mark said you wanted
to talk to me.

1572
01:13:08,728 --> 01:13:10,439
It was the only way
I was gonna get

1573
01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:12,116
the two of you in the same room.

1574
01:13:14,978 --> 01:13:17,830
Okay, well, I don't wanna
waste your time.

1575
01:13:19,149 --> 01:13:20,323
Kath, hang on.

1576
01:13:21,825 --> 01:13:24,327
Okay, so maybe I
don't know much,

1577
01:13:24,327 --> 01:13:26,663
but... it seemed to me that

1578
01:13:26,663 --> 01:13:29,374
Shane and Lauren
were good together.

1579
01:13:29,374 --> 01:13:32,502
A-and maybe, just maybe,

1580
01:13:32,502 --> 01:13:35,380
you two liked hanging out
with each other,

1581
01:13:35,380 --> 01:13:37,632
so you kept plotting even though

1582
01:13:37,632 --> 01:13:39,926
maybe there wasn't
so much to plot about.

1583
01:13:39,926 --> 01:13:43,346
We're their mothers, we know
them better than anyone else.

1584
01:13:43,346 --> 01:13:45,390
- She's right.
- Yeah.

1585
01:13:45,390 --> 01:13:48,101
Or maybe you just think you do.

1586
01:13:48,101 --> 01:13:52,189
Look, whatever happens
with the two of you...

1587
01:13:52,189 --> 01:13:55,859
you need to make things better
between Shane and Lauren.

1588
01:13:55,859 --> 01:13:58,537
I mean, I think you
owe them that.

1589
01:14:00,774 --> 01:14:02,908
I'm sorry. I was so upset.

1590
01:14:02,908 --> 01:14:06,495
But I never meant for it to be
a me or you situation.

1591
01:14:06,495 --> 01:14:08,538
Oh, I'm sorry too.

1592
01:14:08,538 --> 01:14:11,041
And you're not terrible
at your job.

1593
01:14:11,041 --> 01:14:13,251
Oh, well, if you're trying
to make me feel better--

1594
01:14:13,251 --> 01:14:15,712
No, I'm not. I mean it.

1595
01:14:15,712 --> 01:14:18,807
Everyone on that committee
loves you.

1596
01:14:18,807 --> 01:14:21,760
I wish our kids felt
the same way about us.

1597
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:25,388
I don't think they're even
speaking to each other.

1598
01:14:25,388 --> 01:14:27,724
I think that we can fix this.

1599
01:14:27,724 --> 01:14:30,068
- One last meddle?
- Mm-hmm.

1600
01:14:31,605 --> 01:14:33,939
Uh, uh, this is not
what I meant.

1601
01:14:33,939 --> 01:14:37,275
Ladies, please, no more
meddling.

1602
01:14:39,854 --> 01:14:41,905
We pride ourselves
on giving the client

1603
01:14:41,905 --> 01:14:43,990
what they've asked for,
but having designed

1604
01:14:43,990 --> 01:14:46,910
this lobby multiple ways,
I believe adding

1605
01:14:46,910 --> 01:14:48,912
a coffee shop in addition
to a restaurant

1606
01:14:48,912 --> 01:14:51,164
will leave the space
feeling cluttered.

1607
01:14:51,164 --> 01:14:53,667
Now we're supposed
to submit to the city's

1608
01:14:53,667 --> 01:14:56,253
Architectural Review Board
later today.

1609
01:14:56,253 --> 01:15:00,257
We'd like to submit this design
as is, but if you feel strongly

1610
01:15:00,257 --> 01:15:03,936
about the coffee shop, we can
postpone until the New Year.

1611
01:15:13,305 --> 01:15:14,613
We agree.

1612
01:15:14,613 --> 01:15:16,865
We love the restaurant
and this design.

1613
01:15:16,865 --> 01:15:19,943
So, um, let's present it today.

1614
01:15:19,943 --> 01:15:22,946
We appreciate all the work
you've done to get here.

1615
01:15:22,946 --> 01:15:24,948
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

1616
01:15:24,948 --> 01:15:27,367
Hopefully it hasn't ruined
your Christmas.

1617
01:15:27,367 --> 01:15:30,495
No, not at all. It's been great.

1618
01:15:34,332 --> 01:15:35,584
- We did it.
- We did it.

1619
01:15:36,668 --> 01:15:38,795
Oh.

1620
01:15:38,795 --> 01:15:41,798
I wanted to say thank you.

1621
01:15:41,798 --> 01:15:44,393
For what?
You gave the presentation.

1622
01:15:44,393 --> 01:15:46,970
I know, but you
really helped me

1623
01:15:46,970 --> 01:15:50,148
see that we are better when we
put our minds together.

1624
01:15:52,886 --> 01:15:55,770
- Good news?
- Mom, why are you here?

1625
01:15:55,770 --> 01:15:57,772
Well, honey, it's your big
presentation day

1626
01:15:57,772 --> 01:15:59,149
and I wanted to support you.

1627
01:15:59,149 --> 01:16:00,650
You haven't returned any
of my phone calls.

1628
01:16:00,650 --> 01:16:02,110
Yeah, I've been busy--

1629
01:16:02,110 --> 01:16:04,279
Uh, the e-mail to
the review board is

1630
01:16:04,279 --> 01:16:05,655
written and ready to go.

1631
01:16:05,655 --> 01:16:08,792
I'll go send that.
Nice seeing you.

1632
01:16:13,448 --> 01:16:15,123
Honey, I want to apologize.

1633
01:16:15,123 --> 01:16:17,676
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that I meddled.

1634
01:16:17,676 --> 01:16:19,002
I'm sorry that I tried
to fix you up.

1635
01:16:19,002 --> 01:16:21,755
I'm sorry that I tried
to break you up.

1636
01:16:21,755 --> 01:16:24,007
I'm sorry because
at the end of the day,

1637
01:16:24,007 --> 01:16:28,136
the only thing I want
is for you to be happy.

1638
01:16:31,516 --> 01:16:32,774
Mom.

1639
01:16:34,445 --> 01:16:38,355
I know. You're my best friend.

1640
01:16:38,355 --> 01:16:44,694
I just need to figure out
the whole life thing for myself.

1641
01:16:44,694 --> 01:16:47,364
I know. You're right.

1642
01:16:47,364 --> 01:16:49,207
I love you.

1643
01:16:49,207 --> 01:16:50,909
I love you too.

1644
01:16:50,909 --> 01:16:53,912
Do you have time
to come with me right now?

1645
01:16:53,912 --> 01:16:55,405
There's somewhere
that we have to be.

1646
01:16:55,405 --> 01:16:58,500
Where are we going? Mom?
But I thought we said no more...

1647
01:16:58,500 --> 01:17:02,045
Okay. Hey, can you check the
wiring and the light up there?

1648
01:17:02,045 --> 01:17:04,547
It's been flipping for a while.
Oh, and can you walk the stage?

1649
01:17:04,547 --> 01:17:06,675
There's a few cracks that need
filling in with black paint.

1650
01:17:06,675 --> 01:17:08,385
Thank you so much.

1651
01:17:19,856 --> 01:17:21,406
- Hey.
- Hey.

1652
01:17:23,059 --> 01:17:25,443
Aiden told me you decided
not to sell.

1653
01:17:25,443 --> 01:17:27,404
Yeah.

1654
01:17:27,404 --> 01:17:29,915
After a lot of back
and forth, maybe...

1655
01:17:30,817 --> 01:17:33,001
too much back and forth...

1656
01:17:34,571 --> 01:17:36,413
I wanna see it through.

1657
01:17:36,413 --> 01:17:41,418
After all that...
you decided to stay.

1658
01:17:41,418 --> 01:17:44,754
I feel like I've been running
from things my whole life.

1659
01:17:44,754 --> 01:17:47,132
Mom, and yeah, this
place needs...

1660
01:17:47,132 --> 01:17:50,427
a lot of work.

1661
01:17:50,427 --> 01:17:53,063
But some friends offered to help
me with the construction.

1662
01:17:53,063 --> 01:17:56,641
Well, I think
it's the right choice.

1663
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:01,154
- You do?
- Yes, I do.

1664
01:18:02,015 --> 01:18:04,274
Because you made it.

1665
01:18:04,274 --> 01:18:07,944
You've always taken risks,
made the adventurous choices.

1666
01:18:07,944 --> 01:18:11,456
I... I truly am impressed.

1667
01:18:16,163 --> 01:18:17,746
You know, you impressed me, too.

1668
01:18:17,746 --> 01:18:19,047
Me?

1669
01:18:20,074 --> 01:18:22,175
- I do?
- Yeah.

1670
01:18:23,536 --> 01:18:26,847
You're so sure of your job,
your goals...

1671
01:18:26,847 --> 01:18:30,100
and now watching you navigate
the unknowns of retirement...

1672
01:18:32,879 --> 01:18:34,312
it's inspiring.

1673
01:18:37,434 --> 01:18:40,360
I'm sorry I've been
so hard on you.

1674
01:18:42,514 --> 01:18:46,199
You tackle life in a way
that scares me.

1675
01:18:47,143 --> 01:18:49,068
But I am learning

1676
01:18:49,068 --> 01:18:51,613
that sometimes it is good
to be scared

1677
01:18:51,613 --> 01:18:54,824
because it's taking me out
of my comfort zone.

1678
01:18:57,535 --> 01:18:58,503
Thank you.

1679
01:18:59,781 --> 01:19:01,206
Now I know you
didn't come all the way down

1680
01:19:01,206 --> 01:19:02,749
here just to tell me that.

1681
01:19:02,749 --> 01:19:04,259
Oh, you know me too well.

1682
01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:09,389
- I need you to do me a favor.
- Always.

1683
01:19:14,546 --> 01:19:15,520
Mom, what's...

1684
01:19:16,923 --> 01:19:18,523
Just trust your mother.

1685
01:19:20,677 --> 01:19:22,527
And... here.

1686
01:19:24,031 --> 01:19:25,230
What's going on?

1687
01:19:25,230 --> 01:19:26,564
We know we got
way too involved.

1688
01:19:26,564 --> 01:19:28,858
- From setting you up...
- To breaking you up.

1689
01:19:28,858 --> 01:19:31,069
And we're very, very sorry.

1690
01:19:31,069 --> 01:19:34,164
Only you know what's right
for your lives.

1691
01:19:34,164 --> 01:19:36,366
Are you hearing
what I'm hearing?

1692
01:19:36,366 --> 01:19:39,419
I think I just heard my mom
apologize.

1693
01:19:39,419 --> 01:19:42,547
We're done meddling and,
uh, we're gonna go.

1694
01:19:54,919 --> 01:19:56,269
- I should have--
- I wanted to--

1695
01:19:59,465 --> 01:20:00,890
You go.

1696
01:20:00,890 --> 01:20:03,434
I'm not selling the theater.

1697
01:20:03,434 --> 01:20:06,062
I was tempted for a moment
because it's gonna be

1698
01:20:06,062 --> 01:20:09,399
a lot of work to fix it.

1699
01:20:09,399 --> 01:20:11,901
But some things
are worth fighting for.

1700
01:20:11,901 --> 01:20:15,822
Look, I-I've always gravitated
towards the fun things in work

1701
01:20:15,822 --> 01:20:19,292
in-in relationships, and
every time it gets hard, I-I...

1702
01:20:20,212 --> 01:20:23,329
I move on to something new.

1703
01:20:23,329 --> 01:20:25,874
But seeing how much dedication
you put into your work,

1704
01:20:25,874 --> 01:20:28,334
pushing through difficulties
because you love something,

1705
01:20:28,334 --> 01:20:32,422
it... it made me
realize that maybe

1706
01:20:32,422 --> 01:20:35,091
I'm missing out on some things
by cutting and running.

1707
01:20:37,927 --> 01:20:39,604
Some things like...?

1708
01:20:41,925 --> 01:20:43,808
Square dancing. Obviously.

1709
01:20:46,603 --> 01:20:47,487
Obviously.

1710
01:20:49,816 --> 01:20:56,070
You know... there is such a
thing as working <i>too</i> hard.

1711
01:20:56,070 --> 01:20:58,948
Oh, is there?

1712
01:20:58,948 --> 01:21:00,658
Yeah.

1713
01:21:00,658 --> 01:21:03,753
This guy I fake dated made me
realize I might have been using

1714
01:21:03,753 --> 01:21:08,124
work as an excuse to ignore
other important things in life.

1715
01:21:08,124 --> 01:21:10,960
Well, he sounds really smart.

1716
01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:14,213
Oh, he's so smart.

1717
01:21:14,213 --> 01:21:17,142
I might keep him around
if he's interested.

1718
01:21:18,211 --> 01:21:19,769
I think he might be.

1719
01:21:35,362 --> 01:21:37,287
I guess your spreadsheets
are out

1720
01:21:37,287 --> 01:21:39,039
of my hair till next Christmas.

1721
01:21:39,039 --> 01:21:42,792
Uh, except that I did volunteer
for the Valentine's Committee.

1722
01:21:42,792 --> 01:21:45,495
Are you trying to be the death
of me, Barbara Harrison?

1723
01:21:45,495 --> 01:21:48,164
I just can't stand the idea
of you filling yet another

1724
01:21:48,164 --> 01:21:50,041
shoe box with receipts.

1725
01:21:50,041 --> 01:21:51,709
I thought you liked a challenge.

1726
01:21:51,709 --> 01:21:53,803
Well, maybe I do.

1727
01:21:53,803 --> 01:21:57,882
You know, if you and Lauren
don't have plans for Christmas,

1728
01:21:57,882 --> 01:22:00,176
you should come over.

1729
01:22:00,176 --> 01:22:02,387
I'll check our
very busy schedule.

1730
01:22:02,387 --> 01:22:04,180
- Ah.
- Oh, I think we're free.

1731
01:22:04,180 --> 01:22:06,766
Excellent.

1732
01:22:10,722 --> 01:22:11,646
This is fake?

1733
01:22:11,646 --> 01:22:13,272
It actually doesn't look
horrible.

1734
01:22:13,272 --> 01:22:15,441
Well, there's a whole
fluffing process

1735
01:22:15,441 --> 01:22:17,026
that makes it
look more natural.

1736
01:22:17,026 --> 01:22:19,612
Oh... a fluffing process?

1737
01:22:19,612 --> 01:22:20,947
Mm-hmm.

1738
01:22:20,947 --> 01:22:22,407
I told Yolanda that we will be

1739
01:22:22,407 --> 01:22:25,493
back the first week of January
starting up again.

1740
01:22:25,493 --> 01:22:27,203
<i>- You</i> told <i>her?</i>
- Yeah.

1741
01:22:27,203 --> 01:22:28,538
Absolutely no pushback.

1742
01:22:28,538 --> 01:22:32,083
Ah. Oh, I'm gonna miss
the first meeting.

1743
01:22:32,083 --> 01:22:34,168
I'm going to a silent retreat.

1744
01:22:34,168 --> 01:22:36,337
She's finally easing into
retirement.

1745
01:22:36,337 --> 01:22:38,598
I'm dipping a toe in, love.

1746
01:22:40,043 --> 01:22:42,218
Well, where's this place?
I hope it's somewhere sunny.

1747
01:22:42,218 --> 01:22:44,721
Oh, no, I don't do sun.

1748
01:22:44,721 --> 01:22:48,182
- What are you, a witch?
- Catwoman, remember.

1749
01:22:50,935 --> 01:22:54,272
Okay, who is ready to sing?

1750
01:22:54,272 --> 01:22:56,232
Heard a lot about this
Christmas Karaoke.

1751
01:23:00,146 --> 01:23:01,237
Merry Christmas.

1752
01:23:01,237 --> 01:23:03,373
Merry Christmas to you too.
