All language subtitles for To Have and To Holiday 2024

Stunning!

Oh, gorgeous!

Oh, I love. I've seen enough.

These designs are fresh, forward
thinking, and fashionable.

Congratulations
to Celeste Palmer,

the newest designer
at Gallavali.

Jocelyn, hello.

Yes, you're 59 next
Thursday, 5PM. Mhm.

No, Tracy, I know. I said I
would show Marina my book,

but it's fine. I got my
stuff and said goodbye.

And the job was supposed
to be temporary.

I gave up my apartment.
I've been staying at Jason's.

Oh, oh, and I knit the
baby a cute little hat

because I figured boy or girl,

it's gonna have a head.

Oh, I've missed you too.

I just wish Jason could
see Everly at Christmas.

We're just not spending
Christmas together.

Tracy, I'll call you back.

Okay, last night you
said that you were bummed

that we couldn't spend
Christmas together.

I was too.

So I took off from work,
and it's Christmas!

Is it too subtle?

I leave for the airport
in an hour.

I know, I know. That's
why this is, dramatic pause,

60 minute Christmas!

We have 60 minutes to cram in as
much Christmas as we can. Ready?

Yeah, I was built for this!

Wait, no, no, no, no,
no, don't, no, don't!

Oh, wow.

Twas the night before Christmas,
and all through the house,

not a creature was
stirring. And you know the rest!

Okay, time for presents!
Let's go!

Christmas cinnamon
churro, my favorite scent.

The 12 ounce size.
Only the best for my lady.

Oh, I love it. I just
wish I got you a gift

from the convenience
store downstairs.

Sorry for the wrapping job. I
must have been in a real hurry.

Oh! Highlighters, I could
use these.

A pepperoni Christmas tree.

You have time for one bite.
Oh, it's hot.

Mmm, that's really good.

60 minute Christmas
really flew by this year.

I don't want it to end.

What if it didn't?

I just missed Thanksgiving.
I have to go home for Christmas.

I know, and I know we said we'd
make long distance work,

but we have no plan.

I don't know when
you're coming back.

That already sounds
like way too long.

I have all this time
off for the holidays.

I mean, the last few months
have been amazing.

So if it's all right with you,

I'd love to spend Christmas
together.

Really? But what
about your parents?

I've spent a ton of
Christmases with them.

I haven't spent one with you.

Besides, New York is just busy,

and your hometown sounds so
peaceful.

Snowman heads, in my office.

Red gumdrop people, green
gumdrop people,

please remember to alternate
colors

on Santa's roof, thank you.

Okay, I know you both
are feeling the stress

of planning the
wedding. It's a lot.

You're a team, you're
a great team.

You aced my marriage bootcamp.

So don't let the wedding get in
the way of your marriage, okay?

Pastor Mark, you're the best.

Thanks for always
being there for us.

Yeah, there is nothing
more magical

than a Christmas wedding.

Okay, see you soon.
- Thanks.

Hey, Pastor Mark.

Okay, so the candy cane
walkway is good to go.

And the Towns Square
Christmas tree still needs-

It's all taken care of. I've
already put the lights on hold.

I'll settle up with them later.

Everyone, can I have your
attention real quick?

The festival could not
open tomorrow without you.

It's three weeks before
Christmas,

and we are already ahead
of schedule, so thank you.

This is going to be our best
Christmas festival yet.

So you must be excited
for Celeste to come back.

Does that mean she's
home for good?

Well, unfortunately she's
had to give up her apartment

because she couldn't find a more
permanent job, so it's for good.

Really? That must
have been hard on her.

Yeah, you know, she
was never happier

than when the two
of you were together.

Why don't you come over
after dinner tonight?

You really think she'll
want me there?

Yeah, yeah, and I never really
understood the breakup anyway.

Felt like more of a pause. Yeah,
come over, she'll love it.

I'll be there.

Dean, I am gonna make
this the best Christmas

she's had in years.

I mean, everyone in town is
gonna be so excited to see her.

She is never gonna
want to leave.

It's just gonna be
the three of us again.

Me, Judith, and Celeste.

Thank you, talk later. And
we're both sitting first class.

I told you, I know a guy.

But I know the best guy.

Okay, now it's time to prep
me for meeting your parents.

Right, so my mom is
gonna love you.

My dad, he might need some time,

but don't worry, he's
a teddy bear.

No, you're wrong,

and I can show you the permit
in my office right now.

I'm the Mayor, I
approved the permit.

The Nutcracker is
a foot too tall.

The red gumdrop
people measured it.

I thought the green
gumdrop people

were supposed to do that.

- I'll fix it.
- Thanks, sweetie.

It's weird that
meeting your parents

means meeting the pastor
and the mayor.

Well, deal with it, buster.
I'm a big deal around here.

So they met in junior high.

Both are real smart, too smart.

Their love language
is bickering.

And don't worry, trust me,
this is gonna go great.

- I love you.
- I love you too.

Ooh, that's new.

Hi, Merry Christmas!

This house is so charming. I
love all the different pieces.

Ah, Celeste prepped you well.

It's been in my family for ages.

All these pieces have been
passed down

from generation to generation.

- So, Jared.
- Jason.

Jason, where do you plan on
staying while you're in town?

Oh, I thought he
could stay here.

You're welcome to stay
in the basement.

Thank you, sir.
Pastor. Pastor sir.

Um. How about some dinner music?

Play
class-i-cal mus-ic.

Mom, you can talk
normally to the Bluetooth.

She thinks because she bought
it for me for my birthday

that she can tell
me how to use it.

So how did you two meet?

Backstage at "New York Fashion
Week".

One of my clients
designs sportswear.

And I was steaming dress after
dress. It was chaos.

And she steamed me
from head to toe.

- Oh, I was so embarrassed.
- I was wrinkle free.

We started off as friends.

And then that changed pretty
quick. It just felt right.

Hmm, Jason, I love that suit.

- Thank you.
- Yeah, looks expensive.

Well, I can get you one half
off. I know a guy.

Thank you, I have
plenty of suits.

Now, Jason, we have a
lot of catching up to do.

So what do you say to
a lightning round?

I say, hi, lightning round,
let's do this.

- Job?
- Yes.

- What exactly do you do?
- Marketing.

- And you can get this
much time off?
- I can work from anywhere.

- Where were you born?
- New York City.

- Family?
- Yes, well, only child.
Parents are traveling.

Exactly how long you've
been dating my daughter?

Three months, but it feels like
we've always known each other.

- So not that long.

I should also say that I'm
sorry for the last minute change

of plans. I really wanted to
spend the holidays with Celeste,

and I thought getting to
know you and Judith

would be a nice bonus.
- Well, that's very sweet.

- And where'd you go to college?
- Columbia.

Dad, can the lightning
round please be over?

I thought you told
me that he went to NYU.

That's where I went to
graduate school.

- Oh.
- Wait, you knew about this?

Well, I knew there was a guy

named Jason who went to NYU

and they went on a
few dates together.

Yep, the Christmas
Festival starts tomorrow.

Let's talk about that.

Yes, Pastor, I hear
you go all out.

He does, it's
huge for the town.

People come from all over
to shop the festival.

There's gifts and decorations,

and the best hot chocolate
you will ever have.

It was on The Food Channel.

And put Everly on the map.

The festival goes all the way
until Christmas.

There are concerts, crafts,
and a tree lighting ceremony.

Oh, I've been to the
tree lighting ceremony

at Rockefeller.
- Oh, they got nothing on us.

And it all culminates with
my dad officiating

the most beautiful
Christmas Eve service.

I can't wait to show you his
church. It's been there

since the 1800's.
It's my favorite place.

Well then, it's a good thing
you came this year, Jason.

Yeah, the inspector
said it's beyond repair.

So we have to do the remodel.
Start in January.

What is it?

I always thought I'd
get married in that church.

But you still can, sweetheart.

It's still gonna be
the same church.

It won't look the same.

- Celeste Palmer, will you--
- Yes.

Okay, well, let me get it out
first. I was trying to ask if--

Get married in my father's
church this Christmas Eve?

- Yes.
- Well, go ahead, ask me.

- Celeste, will you--
- Yes.

Oh, okay, I hadn't, I
hadn't planned for this.

Oh, this is so romantic,
use mine.

Thanks, Judith.

- Yes?
- Yes.

Oh, this is so fast,
like, like, like wow fast.

This month, a Christmas wedding?

I mean, those are never as
magical as you might think.

Well, I think it sounds
amazing.

Does it?

Does it?

Well, it's more amazing
than our wedding at City Hall.

Pastor Mark, Mayor Palmer,

I do wanna apologize for
not speaking to you first,

but I can see how a much
this matters to Celeste.

And I know I wanna spend the
rest of my life with her.

Oh, you!

You
are family now!

So come help me in the kitchen.

- Okay.
- We need to celebrate.

You didn't decorate the tree.

Of course not, that's
our thing.

Jason's a really great, dad,
and you're gonna love him.

And I know I could have
handled all this better.

It's just, I wasn't expecting
him to propose.

Not yet, star goes on last.

And why is that, dad?

- Because it's the star.
- Because it's the star.

I know, I know, I say it
every year because it's true.

And when you do,

that's how I know it's the
beginning of Christmas.

It's just not like you to
rush into something so fast.

Normally, you have lists
with pros and cons.

I know it's weird for
me, but there are no cons.

I just want to be with him,

and I really wanna get
married in our church,

the one where I grew up.

And most of all, I want
you to marry us in it.

Of course.

I've missed you, dad.

And don't worry, none
of this is gonna mess

with our Palmer family holiday.

That big city boy's
gonna have to keep up

with our Christmas
country cheer.

Mmh, now, speaking of
cheer, how about a toast?

- Who could that be?

Oh, you know what?
No need to answer that.

- Merry Christmas... Dean.
- Hi, Dean.

Hey Celeste.

I think
I missed something.

Oh, Jason, this is Dean.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Dean, this is Jason,
my fiance.

Wow, I think I'm
all caught up now.

Well, congratulations
to both of you.

And these are welcome
home flowers for everyone.

Oh, I'll take those.
Thanks.

So, now that
we're engaged,

are you gonna introduce
me to all your exes?

Yeah, I think my dad might
not be over the break up.

Oh, it's funny, I thought
it was the guy

who showed up with flowers.

Ooh, flowers, Harvey
should do the arrangements

for the wedding.
I'm thinking like,

calla lilies and snowdrops.

They'll help keep the whole
event Christmas classy,

like subtle, but warm.

I love that we can talk about
this now.

Oh, and there's Garafinos,
they make the best prime rib.

And down the hill from them
is the Everly Shore Club

where we spend every
summer by the water.

And my dad and I
love that place.

Oh, and then
there's the jeweler.

The jeweler, right.

We could go tomorrow and
pick out a ring together,

so I can give my mom
back this one.

- I love that idea.
- Oh, this is fun.

You know, I think we just
found our wedding planner.

Well, of course it's
gonna be me.

Who else would dare plan a
wedding in three weeks?

And plus, I kind of know
us, and we have great taste.

I really get why
you love this place.

You know, every Christmas
Eve, my family would stay up

until midnight to open presents.

But this one year when I was
eight, a snowstorm came in

and just knocked out the power.

So that Christmas, we
exchanged gifts by candlelight.

And it was my favorite Christmas
memory until now,

standing here with you.

Don't you think this is
all happening too fast?

Well, I was a little thrown,

but you can really
see they're in love

by the way they look
at one another.

You always say
that you can tell

if a couple is meant
to be together

by the way they tell the
story of how they met.

Yeah, I know exactly

what you were doing when
you asked that question.

So what?

So they nailed it,
and you know it.

Three months? We cannot let
her make this big of a mistake.

We just have to support her.

She wouldn't listen
to us anyway.

Hmm, she might
listen to her pastor.

I don't like the way
you just said that.

Oh, I'll officiate
the wedding,

but I can't change the rules
just because she's my daughter.

They're gonna have to survive
my marriage bootcamp

just like every other
couple that I've worked with.

And if it turns out that they're
not right for each other,

then I won't marry
them.

I really don't like the way
you said any of that.

Oh, okay, so I'm clearly
doing your hair for the wedding.

Oh, Tracy, thank goodness!

I wasn't sure, since you're on
maternity leave, if you can.

Oh, I can.

Even if I go into labor
the morning of the wedding,

I will be there crunching ice
chips and braiding your hair.

Well look, if there's
gonna be another person in that

delivery room, she's gonna have
to become a certified doula.

I got a buddy named Doug.

He happens to be a
certified doula.

I'll hook you up,
Celeste. I got you.

You don't know a doula
named Doug.

Thank you, thank you. That made
feel very alive.

- Hey Tim, that's your cue.
- Yeah, okay.

And don't forget the lisp!

You got it, babe.
Here goes nothing.

He lost a bet, so now he
has to sing a Christmas song

of my choosing.
- Oh, what was the bet?

How many baby carrots
are in the bag.

We bet on all kinds
of stupid stuff now.

And the loser has to do
something embarrassing.

It's how we keep things fresh.

Yep, that's
my husband.

And that business casual muffin

is gonna be your husband, huh?

Oh, look at him,
he's trying to fit in.

I knew you two were gonna
get engaged. I just

didn't think it would be five
hours after you hung up on me.

Jason is just so spontaneous,

and when we do anything
together,

it feels like the
right thing to do.

Wow, I've never seen you be
this decisive about anything.

Let's try something.
Ketchup or mustard?

Oh, it depends
what we're having.

- Dogs or cats?
- Aw, they're both so cuddly.

Okay, the Celeste I know
and love is still in there.

I guess your sudden
decisive nature only applies

to that sponge cake in a suit.

Okay, I'm gonna need you to
stop calling Jason baked goods.

I know, I'm sorry,
I'm pregnant.

All I think about is pastries.

You're basically a talking
cupcake to me.

Mmm.

It was a good game.

Ms. WADOWSKI:
Celeste, great
to have you back.

We are all so proud
of your successes

as a New York fashionista.

Oh, it was a temporary
position.

Well, that guy takes
darts seriously. Hi.

Oh, Jason, this
is Ms. Wadowski,

my middle school gym teacher.
This is Jason,

my fiance.

Hello Jason, what
amazing news.

Weddings are truly a blessing.

So how bad did Withers
beat you?

What? No, I
crushed that old man.

Oh, but I told
you to lose.

Were you serious about that?

This is gonna be a
whole thing.

Should I be worried
about this?

Look, maybe the next
time I lose a bet,

you come up with
something for me to do

that's actually embarrassing
'cause that was fun.

Oh, that's my dad.

We have to be at the church
at 7AM sharp tomorrow

to start our marriage bootcamp.

Uh, what's marriage bootcamp?

Tim, will you explain
Marriage Bootcamp to this man?

I got it.

It's intense, there's
counseling exercises,

so many exercises all to prove

to Pastor Mark that you two
are meant to be together.

That's the only
way he'll marry you.

Okay, how does the
pastor determine

who's right for each other?

Oh, he has an elaborate
scoring system.

Yeah, and we actually
have the highest score

in bootcamp history. Boom.

- Don't let them scare you.
- Scared of Mr. Hippopotamus?

No, we'll destroy their
bootcamp record.

Alright then, what say you

to a little wager between
gentlemen?

Loser has to do
whatever

embarrassing thing the
winner tells them to.

Okay Jason, love the
confidence,

but Tim and Tracy met in
kindergarten.

- You're on.

Come on, how hard can
bootcamp really be?

This is going to
be the hardest

three weeks of your life.

The only way to ensure
a strong union

is to build it on
a strong foundation.

And I only have 20 days to
prepare you for marriage,

which is not a lot of time.

- How long is this normally?
- Please be respectful.

Now, if I can have you
both up here at the altar.

Celeste here, Jason, I'd
like you to stand

where you're gonna be on
the day of your wedding.

Now, every good relationship
requires three things.

Eye contact,
honesty, and togetherness.

Now, I'd like you both
to join hands,

look into each other's
eyes, and take a deep breath.

And at the same time,

admit something you've never
shared with one another.

- I get up extra early to fix
my morning breath.
- I really don't like cheesecake.

You both need to
dig a lot deeper.

- But you love cheesecake!
- I don't.

We order it all the
time! I made you one.

Was that our score?
What did we get?

You'll find out your total
score at the end of bootcamp.

Now, onto the million dollar
question, Christmas edition.

You have a million dollars

to spend on your partner's
Christmas present.

You can afford
the perfect gift.

So Celeste, what would
you get for Jason?

- He likes baseball, a baseball.
- Think bigger.

- A baseball team!
- Too big.

- Season tickets for life.
- Oh, I'd love that!

Okay, Jason, what would
you get for Celeste?

Her own fashion house.

Oh, I love that too.

Celeste, do you
actually love it?

Well, I get why he chose that,

but it makes me feel like you
don't think I can do it myself.

Okay, let's stop there.
Clearly, the two of you

don't know each other as
well as you thought,

which might make our
next challenge difficult.

So for our final
task of the day,

you'll build your dream
gingerbread house.

Discuss everything.
This is your ideal home,

so every detail needs
to be agreed upon.

But here's the catch,

you only have so many
pieces of gingerbread.

I'll leave you to it.

Okay, so what style
of house should we have?

I'm thinking a Tudor.

- Really? You're a Tudor person?
- What's a Tudor person?

And why, does it bother
you if I am one?

It doesn't, I just didn't think
you would be one of those
people.

No, a kitchen table is
something we're gonna use

every day. We need
it to be stable.

My dad was right. Maybe we
don't on each other at all.

There is so much we haven't
talked about.

I'm just worried about where
baby number two is gonna sleep.

- Hey.
- Oh, what are you doing here?

Just how every woman longs
to be greeted by their husband.

- You look lovely.
- Better.

I just overheard our daughter

and her fiance arguing
over a gumdrop ottoman.

They're already on
the dream house?

That is not a week one exercise.
You are setting them up to fail.

No, I bumped it up

because I'm setting them
up for the real world.

It's not all gumdrop
ottomans out there, Judith.

Wait, we've run out of rooms and
we haven't built my home studio.

Oh wait, I gave up my man cave
and now you want a home studio?

My dad was right. Maybe we don't
know each other at all.

There is so much we
haven't talked about.

I'm just worried about where
baby number two's gonna sleep.

- You want two babies, right?
- Of course I do.

See, we haven't talked
about that,

and I know you want two babies.

I don't even know where
this house is.

It's easily over
a million dollars

in gingerbread square footage,
would never fit in the city.

Yeah, I thought I wanted
to stay in New York,

but now that I'm home, I just.

I don't know.

Well, we don't have
to decide now.

I can work from anywhere.

So wherever you wanna live,
that's where I wanna be.

Oh, you know what? We can
build the kids bunk beds.

Ooh, then that room
can be your studio.

And this right here

is your new fruit leather
flat screen TV.

That's a good brand, but
why is it in your studio?

A night, it'll be a man cave.

You know, I ordered
cheesecake because you love it.

And I overreacted when you
spent a million dollars

buying me a fashion house.

I know you believe in me.

So how's it going?

All done?

- It's perfect.
- Thanks Dad, this really helped.

So no major disagreements
over the house?

Oh no, there were plenty.

Apparently, I have
very strong opinions

on candy cane kitchen tables.

But we realized that we
agree on all the things

that actually matter.

We'll see you later
for hot chocolate.

Yeah.

Huh, this church
really is beautiful.

Elves, stop fidgeting
with your stockings.

Santa's helper,
I need to fix your hat,

and you're all gonna
have to calm down

if want your costumes ready
in time for Santa's village.

Celeste, you're back!
- Hi, I missed you.

Oh, come on,
I doubt you were thinking

of this old broad while working
in a chic fashion house.

No, I thought
of you every day.

You're the one who
got me that job.

You got it yourself.
You're so talented.

Now, I heard a rumor about you,
but I'm sure it can't be true

because you would've
told me face to face.

Look at that rock!

Oh, you don't have
to tell her.

She walked into a
tree on the way here.

And it didn't even hurt. That's
how good this ring is.

Oh, congratulations sweetie.

Thanks, so I'm gonna
need a wedding dress,

and I thought I would get
married in one of yours.

Oh, sorry, I don't
have much right now.

Darn arthritis has
been acting up.

Look, check out back.

I just need to finish
up with this rowdy lot.

Okay, children, green
chairs now, sit.

- How did you do that?
- Well, I am the mayor.

Any excuse. Let's go, mom.

- Hey, Withers.

I didn't order this.

Mom, I don't think the one
you picked is a wedding dress.

Well, it's a...

Oh, oh, no.

There's definitely
a lot more poof

than there was on
the rack.

Mom, you don't think I'm
being too impulsive, do you?

Hmm, just because it
happened quickly,

doesn't mean
that it's a mistake.

When I first met your dad,

I knew I wanted to marry him.

I knew it right away, even if
it was gonna be at City Hall.

And I know dad's trying,

but I can tell he is
not fully on board.

But if he just gives Jason a
chance, he'll see what I see.

Mmh, yeah, but P.S.T.

Pastor Standard Time is
the slowest time there is.

The slowest.

Honey, please don't get married
in a snow princess costume.

- She picked it out.
- Guilty.

That makes sense.

Sorry, I told you there
isn't much to choose from.

But Celeste, maybe
we could design

your wedding dress together?

I love that. I have
so many ideas.

- It'll be like old times.
- Yes!

I got your mail.

Ah, I got your fruitcake.

Ooh. What on earth
are you wearing?

- I'm a snow princess.
- Sure.

So Michelle, Mailman
Withers lost at darts again

and he's completely depressed
about it.

Oh no, that means the
mail will be messed up

for who knows how long.

I thought everyone
knew not to beat him.

Who did this?

It was Jason. I told
him not to win.

But to be fair, who would think

that beating the
mailman at darts

would ruin everyone's mail?

That's the guy who's marrying
Celeste and messed up the mail.

Jason Arlington from New York.
He messed up the mail.

- Okay, that's enough.
- I'm sorry?

Wait, I'm so confused.
How did I mess up the mail?

You beat Withers at darts.

How are those two
things related?

Look, you're really making
a name for yourself here.

I also heard you bombed the
million dollar gift question.

Oh, it's a small town,
word travels fast.

And Tracy and I got a
spreadsheet set up

of all the embarrassing
things you're gonna

have to do when
you lose the bet.

You make these?

Yeah, yeah, when I have
downtime at the hardware store,

I carve all these.
- It's impressive.

It's not as impressive
as that jacket.

You think you're better than me?

Just messing with you, man. I'm
messing, it's a beautiful coat.

Thanks. These ornaments
are really great.

Yeah.

But do you mind if I give
you a little marketing advice?

Go ahead, gimme what you got.

Well, you see the
ornaments are arranged wrong.

The Santas should be out
front greeting people

with their smiles.

This sign, "homemade ornaments",

makes it sound like a kid's
lemonade stand.

Ouch.

It should say "handcrafted".

And try some cross promotion,

"Handcrafted ornaments
by Cooper's Hardware."

- Okay, okay.
- This one please.

It's really cute.
- Great, Santa up front.

Show him. Look how sparkly
that ring is.

- Mhm.
- Why isn't mine that sparkly?

We don't have sparkle
money, honey.

Hey, you put the Santas
out front. I like it.

Completely my idea,
totally my brain.

You're the best.

Photographer, check.

I'm impressed. I guess we're
not taking no for an answer.

Wow, look at this ring.

It looks beautiful on you.

I have to force myself
not to look at it

when I'm near traffic.

So, I'm sorry, I heard you may
be catching some heat for...

Single-handedly ruining

the Everly Postal Service with
my dart skills? Yes, I've heard.

We may need to do
some damage control.

- Oh, here they come.
- Hey.

- Look, dad, we got the ring.
- Oh, isn't it gorgeous?

- It's very big.
- Oh, shall we?

- Yes.
- Okay.

Absolutely. Four hot
chocolates, please.

- I'll get it.
- No, no, no, please allow me.

Oh, you just bought
that big ring.

And besides, it's
tradition, I always buy.

- Thank you.
- Ah, boys, I got it.

Christmas doesn't really start
until you had your first sip

of hot chocolate and
you're gonna love it.

Well?

- It's nice.
- You don't like it.

Really?

Okay, I don't wanna
cheesecake you again.

It's just a little rich,

and I'm more of a
cappuccino person.

You don't like the hot
chocolate.

Well, good for you.
I just want my mail.

Wait, what happened
with the mail?

- That should about do it.
- Thank you.

So are you sure you're
all right helping out

with this particular bootcamp?

Yeah, it's my job, and I
just wanna see Celeste happy.

You're gonna make a great
pastor someday.

Thanks, that means a lot.

So we're two days away
from lighting the tree.

You think we can go
review things on the list?

- Sure.
- Cool.

Oh, by the way, I
had the caboose

on the Christmas train replaced.

All right, I'll check
that one off.

Also, you might wanna
check the water damage over at

the first few pews. Looks like
that leak might be back.

Ah, right, I'll make a call.

But first, it's time
for snowman slalom.

Communication is everything
in a relationship.

It's not just about how
you talk to your partner.

It's about talking
to your partner

in a way that they
understand because every person

has their own preferred method
of communicating,

even if it's hard to see.

Celeste, will you put this on?

Oh, isn't that dangerous?

Well, it's only as dangerous as
you and your partner make it.

Jason, you'll be Celeste's eyes.

You will tell her how to
navigate the obstacle course

without hitting any
of the snowmen.

The better you communicate,
the faster your time.

- Huh.
- Yes, that's right.

You will be timed.

So for every snowman
that you knock over,

you are going to be penalized
an extra 20 seconds.

You will go again and again
until you cross the finish line

in two minutes or less.

Now, if you knock over
all of the snowmen,

you failed this exercise.

- Yes, Jason?

Do you have another
jacket I could borrow?

I just didn't think we'd
be doing this today.

Check the lost and found.

Ready?

- Mhm.
- Go!

Oh, wow. I think you're gonna
have to go a little bit faster.

Wait, what was that?

Only a rock. You're
okay, just relax.

I don't like being
told to relax.

I can tell. Whoa, whoa, watch
out, watch out, watch out!

You are the eyes.
YOU are the eyes.

Whoa, left, left. The eyes
are saying left, whoa.

Wait, did I hit something?

Nope, don't worry, you're
crushing it.

Crushing what?

Right, right, right.

Straighten out, there you go.

Six minutes and 20 seconds,
try again.

Nice, right. Where are you?

No, whoa, slow down,
slow down, slow down!

My bad, I should have
listened to you.

And go!

A little to the right
and start going left.

Nice, now the third
snowman's coming up.

Could you set the stage more?

Oh yeah, it's about six
feet forward

and two feet to the right.

Okay, that's great. Say more
things with feet in them.

Okay, that one was on me.

Go! Nice, all right, you're just
passing the first snowman.

Slight left, we got the second
snowman around one o'clock.

We're approaching
the third snowman.

Make a left, sharper left.

We're just getting past the
last snowman, straighten out.

Right, right, right.
Hit the gas.

Hit the gas, woo!

One minute and 14 seconds.

Yes!

Take that Tim and Tracy.

I have designed
a satin A-line gown

with an embellished waistline.

Have you thought
about jewelry?

Yes, understated with
a hint of the holidays.

I made this pair of silver
sleigh bell earrings.

Ooh, you'll slay all day.

Mm, I'll pick another pair.

Celeste.

I know I mentioned my
arthritis the last time.

- Oh, I can sew the dress.
- No, it's not that.

Would you consider taking
over this store?

I understand if you're
heading back to the city.

You've just started your
career out there.

Oh, but I haven't, and

I have no prospects.

I sent out a million resumes.
Nothing happened.

I never got to show
Marina Gallavali my book.

You know, Jason and I
could stay in the city,

keep chasing that life.
But with this offer,

well, maybe we
could build a life here.

Well, to fully understand
the weight of a real commitment,

you have to put in the time.

Well, I've been in enough
relationships to know

that I wanna put in
that time with Celeste.

And how many relationships
have you been in?

Oh, not that many.

Just enough to know, you know.

No, I don't know.

Pastor, I think we got
off on the wrong foot.

We're gonna be family.

Family is something you build.

It takes work. And if
you wanna be a part of that,

then you need to realize,
Celeste had a whole life

before you arrived in Everly.

People have expectations, relationships.

She can't just let those
go because she's engaged

to a guy she just met.

This must be the fastest
batogan

in the whole world, daddy.

Jason thinks it's weird I
won't call it a toboggan.

Well, you renamed it,
so it's a batogan.

And it turns
out he has a work call,

so Jason won't be joining us.

Oh, that's too bad.

Oh, look at all this fresh
powder!

You're sure
in a good mood.

Well, I love skiing with my
two best gals. Oh, and

after this, let's go finish
decorating the Christmas tree.

He's so excited.

Welcome to your father
at Christmas time.

- Wait up, wait up, wait up.
- Jason, what?

I didn't want to miss out on
this Palmer family tradition.

- Oh, good, we've got room.
- Oh, you're gonna love it.

Look, dad, Jason's here.

I moved my call.

Well, we only have
three sets of poles.

That's okay, I'm fairly agile.

Well, it's really difficult if
you can't lock your boots in.

Pastor, I'll be fine.

Oh, sorry.

- Hey, Pastor Mark.
- Hey.

So the lights
for the tree aren't coming in.

What, we don't have
Christmas lights?

Look, I called the company and
they claim we haven't paid.

What the..? Okay,
I'll take care of it, thanks.

Yeah, no worries.

Mmm. Now this
smells like Christmas.

Oh my, how did you..?
What did you..?

This is Chef Fernando's
recipe. You know him.

He makes that hot
chocolate you hate.

Right, hey, can we
change the subject

to something a little
bit more awkward?

Does your dad like me?

Yeah! No, he's just
not great with change.

We got a new couch once, and it
took him months to sit on it.

Now, it's his favorite spot.

He's got his own
dad-shaped dent.

Okay.

Hey, sorry, but your dad had
a Christmas light emergency,

so he had to cancel out
on the cookie party.

Dad never misses
the cookie party.

Should we give dad more time?

Slow down and just get married

in the renovated
church next year?

Hmm, you wanna know why I
got married at City Hall?

My parents weren't
exactly thrilled

with me marrying your father.

And I let their feelings shade
everything about our wedding

instead of doing
what I wanted to do.

Celeste, don't let someone
else stand in the way

of your special day.

And you too, Jason, because
you will also be there.

Why have you
never told me this?

Well, because your grandparents
ended up loving your father,

and Jason, the pastor will too.

So buck up you two,

'cause we're having a wedding,
whether you like it or not.

Yeah, Ryan, I am
in a real bind here.

I ordered a lot of Christmas
lights. I had 'em on hold,

and I was supposed to
pay for them over a week ago

and I completely forgot. I've
been a little distracted.

My daughter is marrying
a guy she's been dating

for three months.

Thank you, Ryan. That's what
I said. It's way too fast.

So do you think
you can help me out?

I need the lights for
a ceremony tomorrow.

They're rented? Well, I mean,
don't you think somebody

should have called me
before they lifted the hold?

Oh, okay, well, where am
I gonna find three miles

of Christmas lights now? I mean,
I've got 24 hours, Ryan.

No, I understand.

Merry Christmas to you too.

It's Celeste's big day,
and she works in fashion.

Okay, I get it. Look, I can be
sophisticated, and Cosmopolitan,

and insert whatever other fancy
women's magazine words here,

which is why I'm gonna
need to borrow that jacket

for the wedding.

- Oh, uh.
- Just joking with you, man.

I wouldn't risk ruining
said bespoke jacket.

Probably got it
from his jacket guy.

I did, I did get it from
my jacket guy.

Tracy. Tim. Celeste's fiance
who ruined the mail

and hates hot chocolate.

Did you hear about the
Christmas tree?

No lights, none.
The pastor forgot.

Now, keep this between us.

Oh, Gerald, did you hear
about the Christmas tree?

So this is a problem?

Yeah, could be. Community really
looks forward to the festival

and the tree lighting
brings in a lot of money

for church and town, so.

Pastor has never let us
down before. I have faith.

Oh, Tracy and I figured out what
you're gonna have to do

when you lose the bet.
It's gonna be at your wedding.

It'll be humiliating!
You'll love it.

Oh! What! My jacket!

This is for insulting
my dad's hot chocolate!

It's Fernando Jr.
and his goons.

- Should we make a run for it?
- No, we gotta stay and fight.

No, not me. I want a donut.

Oh, hold on, do you
mind?

Take that.
- All right.

Okay, ready. Yeah.

Oh, Michelle, that's when
I knew Jason was the one.

He's thoughtful but
also confident.

Would never back down
from a tough situation.

The ceremony's tonight.

Believe me, I have called
everywhere.

What am I supposed to do?

Drive from store to store,
collecting twinkle lights?

Thank you, Merry Christmas.

It's an actual Christmas
miracle.

- How did you?
- It wasn't me.

See, I told you it
would all work out.

Jason called his light guy.

You know, you should have told
me you called your light guy.

I mean, I nearly wasted an
entire day looking for lights.

Hey, Mark, you're being rude.

Dad, he was just
trying to help.

I don't need his help.

I know I've been busy
with the wedding.

but that doesn't
mean I haven't wanted

to finish decorating
the tree with you.

Aw, Santa.

Yeah, that's my favorite
ornament.

It's the first thing you
bought with your own money.

You wanted to get something the
whole family could enjoy.

Look, I know this holiday,

my coming home, it's
not what you had in mind.

And I know there have been
a lot of changes this year,

but I'm still the same girl
who bought that ornament.

Yeah, it's just a lot for
me to take in all at once.

I mean, you remember
the new couch?

Mhm.

I love Jason and I
really wanna marry him.

And whether it's a month
after dating or a year,

it's always gonna
be a little scary.

And I really need
my dad right now.

I'm sorry, I was
a little harsh

with Jason back there.

Had nothing to do with him.

Well, it had something
to do with him.

But look, if
you love Jason,

I should give him a chance.

Yeah, probably need to go
find him and apologize.

Thank you, you need to.

But first, let's finish
decorating the tree.

- Deal.
- Oh, I love this one.

What do you think?
Where should this go?

Right there. Yeah.

Thank you everyone for coming,
and thank you to Pastor Mark

and his church for organizing
such a wonderful event.

I know that this tradition
has just been

so important to all of us.

Wadowski just smiled at you.
She never smiles.

- Are you ready?
- Yeah!

Count with me.

Five, four, three, two, one!

Merry Christmas Everly!

- That was so good, mom.
- Jason, let's talk.

- And the tree looks amazing.
- Thank you sweetheart.

So Jason, look, I need
to apologize.

I'm sorry about the lights,

and not giving you
a fair chance.

Hey, no need to apologize.

I know it's kind of
a unique situation.

Hello, I will have the
holiday special, no alcohol.

You got it pastor, one
plain eggnog.

- Whatever you want.
- A virgin eggnog as well.

Wise choice.

I just, I don't get it. It's so
thick, almost too chocolatey.

Shh, shh, you gotta keep
it down. We're in public.

Now look, I gotta
confess something.

Whoa, hold on, a pastor
wants to confess to me?

Yes, I'm aware of the irony.

What I'm about to tell you,
it's serious.

I hate the hot chocolate.
It's just so rich.

- That's what I said!
- Exactly!

Okay, look, but
this is between us hmm?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

Don't take it too hard.

Good game, Withers, good game.

That's how you get
your mail back.

Okay, another round of nogs,
extra peppermint sticks.

Oh boy, am I gonna
feel this in the morning.

So I gotta ask you, I mean, do
you really have a light guy?

Well, yes and no.

My guys are really
just my close friends.

We all help each other out,
share our connections.

It's our running joke.
It's fun, you know?

They're my guys.
I'm one of their guys.

They mean a lot to me.

You may have noticed,
I'm a little protective

of this jacket. I got
it from my guy.

My best friend growing up.

Huh.

He got sick a couple years
ago. It was his.

Two eggnogs, extra
peppermint sticks.

I'm cutting you off
after this one, pastor.

Okay.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Christmas in Everly
is amazing.

Yeah, it sure is.

So, what do you normally
do for the holidays?

I spend it with family
in the city.

We've seen the Rockettes a lot.

You've seen the Rockettes.
- No.

Well, I gotta take
you next year.

That is, if you can get away.

Radio City is right by my
apartment. Or who knows?

Maybe we'll get a bigger
place before then.

Either way, I'm
taking you to the Rockettes.

Anyway, you know what they say?

You don't buy eggnog,
you rent it. Excuse me.

And we can do them in all white,
a monochromatic theme.

Okay, now I love it.
What do you think, Harvey?

Can we make all that happen?

I know we're a little
short on time.

Oh no, time is not the issue.
It's the snow drops.

Ah, let me make some calls.

Wow, you sill look
a little tired.

Yeah.

How many nogs deep
did you guys go?

- We got cut off.
- Oh, so it went well?

Let's just say I'm
the new couch.

That's great!
I told you he liked you.

So when you see your new
best friend, can you remind him

to get the paperwork in for
the Christmas fireworks?

So, bad news on
the snow drop front.

I can't get them in time
for the wedding.

I've checked neighboring towns.

Nobody has any this
close to Christmas.

Have you tried neighboring
states?

No, how about paper whites?

Why would she need
paperweights?

I think he said paper whites.

They're a very delicate
flower.

Hi, sorry for the rush. I have
a wedding in 10 days,

and yes,
I know it's little fast,

but all I need are snow drops,
as many as you can get.

Oh, I understand
they're spoken for,

but perhaps you could call them

and see if they'd consider
paper whites instead?

You would? Oh,
thank you so much.

Of course, I'll hold.

You're on a roll.

I know, I'm like a
wheeler and dealer.

I have never seen
you so assertive.

They will? Oh,
thanks, you are the best.

Now, can you have them delivered
to Harvey's flowers in Everly?

He'll call you with the
details. Merry Christmas.

It's Sunrise Flowers in
Saddle Creek, thanks Harvey.

Well, you obviously have
everything under control

and I need to go do
some mayor things.

So just remember,

the bouquet would've been
a disaster without me.

That was pretty impressive.

I know, it's like wedding
planner me

is a different person.

No time to think, no indecision.

I want something, I go for it.

I should be harnessing this
kind of energy for my career.

Yes, you should.

Why don't you go
look at vases?

I have to go send an email.

Celeste is definitely
moving to New York for good.

Well, I'm sorry, but just
let it play out naturally.

You could be jumping
to conclusions.

Oh, and I meant to tell
you that brown water stain

in the ceiling is growing.

And I can tell you're too
distraught to listen to me.

What's that?

Right, I'll deliver
these toys.

What's on the bootcamp agenda?

It's supposed to be a fun one,

but I am not in the mood
for a fun one.

- Hey, dad.
- Hey, Pastor Mark.

You're early.

I thought you said things
went well last night.

They did. Maybe he's
just hung over

from all that non-alcoholic
eggnog.

Okay, take a deep breath

and admit something you've
never said out loud before.

I once lost $500 at the track.

Oh, no, no, no, I was
entertaining clients.

My wallet fell out of my pocket.
It was embarrassing.

I don't gamble.

Celeste?

I'm sorry, I just
couldn't think of anything.

Okay, you two are still afraid

to admit hard truths
to one another.

Bootcamp only gets more
difficult from here,

and I don't think you're
gonna be able to cut it

unless you start opening up.

The wedding is 10 days away. I'm
gonna need total commitment.

This next exercise is
about dropping your ego

and learning to be silly
with your partner.

Embarrassment is not
only a part of marriage,

it builds character. And as
you've already guessed,

you're going to be playing
one of the most famous couples

of all time.

Well, this is embarrassing.

At least it's nice to see
how handsome you'll be

when you turn 300.
Or immortal? How old is Santa?

After you get your
picture taken with Santa,

we're gonna get some
hot chocolate.

Scumdilidumptious hot chocolate
for all you little tots.

From British Mrs. Claus.

Mrs. Claus, I just wanna
make sure the hot chocolate

isn't too hot for
the little tots.

- Jolly lukewarm sir.
- Cheerio.

And what would you like
for Christmas, young man?

- Okay, hang tight little buddy.
- I'm so sorry!

- Mom, dad?
- Blimey, these are your parents?

Again, I'm so, so sorry.

Oh, don't worry.
We're family now.

I still can't believe you
guys cut your trip short.

Well, you're getting
married.

We would've cut it shorter had
we gotten your email sooner.

Son, we need to talk about
this wedding of yours.

We're just
so delighted!

Okay, I'm gonna go
make some tea.

We had a whirlwind
courtship as well.

I mean, we met at
a spiritual retreat

and two days later,
we got married.

I'm fine!

So what were you
doing overseas?

Volunteering.
Eastern Samar needs a lot

of help building schools
and infrastructure.

In fact, the only internet
cafe for miles was shut down

until two days ago.

It turns out it was mice.

It's a computer joke, get it?

So when we finally did
get your email,

we hopped on the next flight.

But we are so sorry
that we couldn't

come earlier to help
with all the planning.

Oh, don't worry, Celeste has got
it completely under control.

Oh, you two really
are cute together.

Sally and I always joked
that we might have taken

the wrong child away
from the hospital.

But look at him.

Only a romantic would propose
a Christmas Eve wedding.

Are you sure you're all
right in there?

Yep, fine.

Dad, why are
we at the tavern?

Oh no, is this another
bootcamp thing?

Okay, there's our final
contestants, everyone.

Celeste and Jason, grab
your seats up front.

Let's play the nearly

and newlywed game,
Christmas Showdown!

Is this always happening
during marriage bootcamp?

Yes, but not in front
of an audience.

Oh good.

The first question
is for my ladies.

Ooh!

Please write down your partner's
favorite Christmas dessert.

And men, write your
answers down in secret.

And if you and your wife
have the same answer,

you both get a point.

All right,
Jason and Celeste,

let's see how you did.
Turn over your boards.

They're on the board with
"Not cheesecake", well done.

Robert and Sally, let's
see your answers.

And Robert and Sally get a
point for whatever that says.

- It's so good.
- We had it in India. Delicious.

Pastor Mark, Mayor Judith,
let's see what you got.

- All right.
- Ta da!

Aww.

Red velvet cake?

Not like we've been married for
almost 25 years or anything.

All right folks,
your next question is,

what is your desert island
Christmas song?

Ooh.

Lots of good ones to choose
from here, but for some reason,

I just can't seem to think
of one right now.

Jason, Celeste,
can you help me out?

All right! Right on,
that's a classic,

"Jingle Bell Rock",
another point.

Robert, Sally, you're up.

Robert, you wrote, "the one
that goes ding, ding a ding".

And Sally, you wrote
"O Santa Claus".

Not only did you
both get it wrong,

but neither one of
those is a song.

Waa-waa.

Okay, Pastor Mark,
Mayor Judith,

this is your big chance to
catch up. Show us what you got.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Well done! "O Holy Night"
indeed, folks. Well done.

I apologize. Well done.

Okay, this is it. This
is the final question,

which is good because
my feet hurt.

Okay, folks, let's
check in on the score.

Robert and Sally, you are in
last place with two points.

And surprise, the
newcomers are tied

with our stalwarts for
first place.

And hold on,
hold on, hold on.

If one of you get this
answer right,

we will have a
winner right here!

Okay, ladies, the
love of your life

is making their own
Christmas cards.

What festive image
is on the cover?

Think about it, take
your time. Oh, oh, you okay?

Okay, okay, Jason, Celeste, you
got 'em? Let's see your answer.

You both put down
"Rudolph", that's so cute.

All right, Judith and Mark,
if you get this right,

you're gonna send
us into sudden death.

Dun-dun-dun!

We got an upset here
folks, we got an upset.

Jason and Celeste are our
newly wed game winners,

Christmas showdown, yes!

I need to walk my very
pregnant wife home.

So I'll see you later.
Goodbye, goodbye.

Wow, it's like you've
known each other for years.

Well, pastor Mark's
bootcamp sure helped.

Maybe we should do a bootcamp.

No, maybe we should
go get some more

of that great hot chocolate.

Oh, yum.

Celeste, Jason, before you go,

I just wanna remind you,
seven days 'til the wedding,

and you have one last
bootcamp task

that's gonna have a huge,
huge impact on your final score.

The two of you are gonna
plan a Christmas dinner

for several
disgruntled relatives.

That doesn't sound so bad.

The last couple
that botched this

never made it down the aisle.

I guess we'll go start
planning.

Go plan away.

What?

- The roast?
- Roasting in the oven. Dessert?

Chilling in the fridge. Here,
try the Palmer family potatoes.

Those are amazing. You know what
would be great? Scallions.

Ooh, yes. Oh, and can I
finally try your family's

corn and chestnut pudding?

Mm, savory puddings, where
have you been all my life?

They're three hours early.

Remember, they're
supposed to be annoying.

Okay. Last day of bootcamp.
Three days to the wedding.

We've got this.

Open the gates.

Oh, traffic was a nightmare.

Oh, you could have cleaned up.
You knew we were coming.

Here, put these on.

- Oh, fun.
- Okay.

This decor, oh, so
many brave color patterns

and interesting choices.

Oh, hors d'oeuvres are
around the coffee tables.

Do you have vegan options?

Because I just became
vegan this afternoon.

We'll see what we have.
Can I get anyone a drink?

- A daiquiri.
- Oh, make that two.

Okay, and for you pastor?

- I'll have a Tab.
- They don't make that anymore.

- Could you find me one?
- I don't think so.

So you're a quitter.

When I brought
them their drinks,

they said they wanted
more grandkids.

Do we already have
children in this exercise?

What? I can't hear you over that
loud sweater you're wearing.

I'm so hot.

These sweaters are polyester
furnaces.

Do you need
help in there?

We have to keep them
out of this kitchen.

Okay, I'm gonna go put
on, "It's a Wonderful Life".

It's a catnip to old people.

Hello?

Yes, this is Celeste Palmer.

Oh really? Yes, of course.

Okay, I'll look out for
the call, thank you.

Okay, I put on "It's
a Wonderful Life",

but they wish it was the
colorized version? What?

Marina Gallavali loved
my portfolio.

I took a chance and
sent it directly to her.

She's calling me within
the hour to talk.

- Do you think it's an offer?
- I don't know.

I'm not even sure if I
wanna go back to the city.

Me neither, I kind
of love it here.

But answer quickly. Would
you take a job at Gallavali?

Yes, it's like when
I said yes to you,

there was really
only one option.

That's my girl!

Okay, well, let's not
tell anyone just yet.

Okay.

Celeste, Jason's
mother wants me

to ask you about
grandkids again.

I just want a fizzy water.

Oh, late dinner.

So you're getting all of
us heartburn for Christmas.

It's six o'clock, dad. Mom, we
do have some rested vegetables

for you now that you're vegan.

Oh, that phase is over.

Okay, did you put scallions
in the Palmer family potatoes?

Just for a little
extra flavor.

So my potatoes are flavorless?

Oh, my glass is awfully
cloudy.

Well, here have mine,
because you can't have it,

I want the clean one.

I'm so bad at this.

Oh, play classical.

Oh, sorry, Celeste, it's your
dinner party. You set the mood.

Let me get you a new glass.
Right, sure, let me just hook up

my phone to the Bluetooth.

Jason, you're doing
that all wrong, let me.

Okay, this is bone dry.
Do you have gravy?

I'll go get it.

Hey, you're taking
this too far.

- It's an act.
- This doesn't feel like acting.

- Is that part of the bit?
- I'm honestly not sure.

Okay, now that

everyone has a new glass,

I want to propose a toast.

Mom, dad, I just wanna say

how much I love our family,

and how excited I am

that Jason, Sally, and
Robert will be part of it

from here on out, cheers.

Cheers!

Excuse me, I have to take
this. Wedding dress emergency.

Yeah, I was right.
This is chewy.

Yes, I would be honored
to work at Gallavali.

Thank you Ms. Gallavali.

Marina, oh, thank you, yes.

No, I'll see you after
the holidays.

Okay, let me explain.

No need. You got the job

and you're moving to
New York for Jason.

- I'm not-
- No, no, he let it slip

at the tavern.
- What did you say?

All I said was we
might get a bigger place

in the city if we did stay in
New York. It wasn't definitive.

So that's why you've
been such a grump.

Why didn't you talk
to me about it?

Because you were having
such a good time with the

wedding and our guests. I didn't
wanna rain on your parade.

All you've been doing
is raining on parades.

You're even dropping
the ball at work.

I had to get Dean to file
the permits for the fireworks.

You permitted with Dean
behind my back?

Celeste, I don't understand.

If you're not moving to New
York for Jason, then why not

stay here in Everly and take
Michelle up on her offer?

You can run your own store.

How did you know about that?

You know this town, everyone
talks. But if I were you-

But that's the problem,
dad. It's my life.

All of these choices are mine,

and I want you to
be a part of them,

but you keep making it
harder and harder.

Where I live, who I marry
are all important decisions

and I want you to help
make them easier,

but instead, you just
keep making them about you.

- Sweetheart.
- Celeste, wait.

Sorry, I ruined fake
Christmas.

Great.

Merry Christmas.

Looking for some guidance?

Got my dream job in New York.

Wow, congratulations.

See? That's all I
needed to hear.

This is about your dad, right?

He thinks I'm
making a mistake.

He thinks all I make
are mistakes.

And now we're
talking about Jason.

Yeah.

You know, I've been watching
Jason put in overtime,

not just for your dad, but
the entire town to like him.

He's clearly not a mistake.

You're good at this
pastor thing.

Just never run a marriage
bootcamp for your daughter.

Jason.

Jason!

- I was just trying to make sure.
- Oh, just stop, okay?

You embarrassed me,
not only in front of

our new family members, but in
front of the entire town.

How?

When Jason surprised you
with the lights on the tree,

you acted like a child.

Oh yeah. I was just-

No more excuses. Make it right.

I will.

Dad! Well, you've
been pushing Jason away

ever since we arrived.
And now, guess what?

You finally got what
you wanted.

He's gone.

Tracy? Hey, hey, hey.

What's going on? Are you okay?

Oh, Jason! I'm in labor.

Tim's not picking up his phone
and my keys fell down the grate.

Oh, okay, okay, we'll
get those keys.

God!

- Okay, let's get you up, yeah?
- Okay.

I'll be right back,
keep breathing.

- Okay.
- Okay?

We're gonna get these
keys, all right?

Okay.

Okay, I see 'em,
I see 'em, okay.

I got 'em. Here
we go, okay.

- I got 'em.
- You did it!

- Yes, yes we did, okay.

Okay, now we're gonna get you
to the hospital, all right?

Grab on to me, nice and easy.

Okay. There you go.

- Where is Tim?
- I don't know.

We're gonna find him.

You've just been so critical
of Jason

right down to how much brown
sugar he puts in his oatmeal.

Let the man have
his brown sugar.

And we've been through bootcamp
hoop after bootcamp hoop.

May I talk now?

Celeste, you're right, you
are right about all of it.

When you left for New York,

it was really difficult for me.

And then when you had
to give up your apartment,

I know that's not
what you wanted,

but I thought that meant
you were coming home,

and you were
gonna be here for good,

which was completely
unfair to you.

Okay.

Say more things like that.

When you and Jason arrived,

it just felt like my
expectations were slipping away

and I behaved really poorly,

and I'm really sorry,
honey, I am.

You know, getting
married and chasing your dreams,

it's not always gonna be easy,
but I'm so proud of you

for going after everything
you want in this life.

I just hope you still want
me to be a part of it.

Hi Tim, what's up? She is?

Wait, Jason did what?

Yeah, I'll be at the hospital
right away.

Tracy's in labor.

Oh, that's great news.

Listen, it's really snowing
pretty heavy out.

Let me take you.
- Thank you.

Jason, Dean was just,
it's not what you think.

It's okay, it's okay,
I don't care.

I was worked up. Forget
all about it. I trust you.

I love you so much.

It's a girl!

- Congratulations!
- Congratulations!

- Come meet her.
- Yeah.

You know, the day
Celeste was born,

it was one of the best
days of my life.

Watching her leave home for good

will be one of the hardest
things I've ever done.

At least I know she has
a really great partner.

That really means a lot,
Pastor.

You know what? Mark.

Oh, oh, okay.

So I have to ask,
what's our bootcamp score?

Because I told Tim we'd
beat their record.

Mm, oh.

Oh man, I apologize in advance

for whatever I'm gonna
have to do at this wedding.

Hey Dean, it's a little late.
Everything going okay?

What?

How did this happen?

It's my fault. I never had that
ceiling leak checked

and I kept saying I would.

There's no way we can have
a wedding in here now.

- It's okay dad.
- No, it's not.

I know how much you wanted
to get married in here.

We can do it next year. This
won't be ready in three days,

but I'm sure the renovated
church will look amazing.

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

Hey. Good morning.

Merry Christmas.

I like the way you say that.

I just wish it was to Mrs.
Arlington like we planned.

Well, what if I told
you there are

a lot of presents
for you downstairs?

Then what are we
wasting time in here for?

Merry Christmas! We
have a present for you,

but it wouldn't fit under
the tree so...

Grab your boots.
We're going for a walk.

So I know I like to joke
about my city hall wedding,

but even though it wasn't
what I expected

and there were filing
cabinets in the background

of my wedding photos,

it was still one of the
happiest moments of my life.

So this might not be exactly
as you planned.

And it's not on Christmas Eve.

Ta-da!

The Shore Club?

This was your father's idea.
He rallied the entire town.

Oh, I finally got
to plan an actual wedding.

I think it'll be one
you'll never forget.

And you too, Jason.

This is incredible.

- Merry Christmas sweetheart.
- Merry Christmas dad.

I guess I'm supposed
to go this way?

- That way.
- That way.

This is it. The next
time we see each other,

you're gonna be walking
down the aisle.

I hope you never
get tired of me.

I'm worried you're not gonna
look at me this way in 10 years.

You know that will
never happen.

And I could never
get tired of you.

Feels great to have
these conversations.

- Whoa, your dad IS good.
- Yeah, he is.

Just don't tell him
you said that.

Mmm.

We're gathered together

in this beautiful place
surrounded by friends

and loved ones to
celebrate the union

between Celeste and Jason.

Now, I only met
Jason a few weeks ago,

but in that time, I've learned
that he is intelligent,

caring, very good at darts.

But most importantly, I've
learned that he loves Celeste

more than anything
in the world,

and that his love is unselfish
and without expectation.

I've already
learned a lot from Jason

and he is going to make
a great husband.

But most surprising to me
over these last few weeks

is how much I've learned
about my daughter.

Not only does she
know what she wants,

but she's not afraid
to go after it.

And what Celeste
wants more than anything

is to be married to Jason.

And I couldn't be happier.

Now, for far too long,

I never allowed myself
the thought

that my amazingly talented,
slightly indecisive little girl

would become this self-assured
woman who would leave me

and never look back.

And I really never thought
that I would be so

proud of you for doing it.

- I love you.
- I love you too.

Jason, do you take
Celeste to be your wife?

I do.

Celeste, do you take
Jason to be your husband?

I really do.

I now pronounce you
husband and wife.

You may now
kiss my daughter.

Hey! Good to see you!

There he is, the
man of the hour.

Thank you again. I
still can't believe

how quickly you put this
all together.

Well, it turns out that
I have a wedding guy,

a dance floor guy, a DJ guy.

Well, you can add me to
that list. I'm your guy.

- Someone wants to say hi.
- Oh!

- Congratulations!
- Congratulations!

Ah, thanks, I wish
you two could be here.

Oh, we do too, buddy, especially
since it's time for you to

pay up on that bet you lost.
You know what you have to do.

Celeste, make sure you
get a good angle.

Mhm.

Time to cut a rug.

Well, you're married now so
you know what you have to do.

Of course, you
taught me well.

Oh, hello.
