00:00:00You've taught me to see the world in a different way.
00:00:23You've taught me to view the world in a different way.
00:00:30You've inspired me to view.
00:00:33Liam, I'm home.
00:00:36Hey, hon.
00:00:40Hi.
00:00:42Hey.
00:00:44How are Kat and Trish?
00:00:46They work great.
00:00:48They said I'd tell you hi.
00:00:49Oh, that's nice.
00:00:51Hey.
00:00:53Um, so I think there's something we should talk about.
00:00:57Oh, please tell me it's something good.
00:01:00I couldn't really use that.
00:01:03Oh.
00:01:04Something wrong?
00:01:06It's just something Uncle Brian texted me.
00:01:10What was it?
00:01:12Do you remember the Hacienda de la Sierra?
00:01:17Yeah.
00:01:18Yeah, the Grand Canyon Resort where your family used to spend Christmas.
00:01:22Apparently the owners are selling it.
00:01:24Really?
00:01:24That's where I had some of the most memorable Christmases with my family.
00:01:29With my mom.
00:01:31You know, we'd go horseback riding and Christmas caroling.
00:01:37We'd hike to the edge of the canyon and act like we were cowgirls.
00:01:42That's sweet.
00:01:43It's silly, I know, but...
00:01:46I guess I just thought I'd bring my family there one day.
00:01:51You know?
00:01:52Our family.
00:01:53Really?
00:01:54Well, tradition is so important in my family.
00:01:57You know my dad.
00:01:58He practically defines old-fashioned.
00:02:02When he's not working.
00:02:03You know, all the time.
00:02:06Old-fashioned.
00:02:07Traditions.
00:02:08Right.
00:02:10Hey.
00:02:11We'll make some new traditions.
00:02:14Someday.
00:02:15Yeah.
00:02:15I guess it would have just been nice to go back for one last Christmas.
00:02:22And say goodbye to the place.
00:02:26Anyway, um, enough about me.
00:02:29What did you want to talk to me about?
00:02:32What?
00:02:33When I came home, you said you had something you wanted to talk to me about?
00:02:37Oh, yeah.
00:02:38Yeah, I just wanted to let you know I don't really feel like Italian tonight.
00:02:41Okay.
00:02:42We'll save it for a special occasion.
00:02:45All right, well, should I get the Chinese food menus?
00:02:49Um.
00:02:51Yeah.
00:02:51Yeah.
00:02:51All right.
00:03:28Is he here?
00:03:37Mm-hmm. He got in early.
00:03:41All right.
00:03:58Hey, Liam. How's that IRR coming?
00:04:03It's almost done. I was hoping I could have a moment.
00:04:06Sure. Why don't you close the door?
00:04:09Yeah.
00:04:09Sir, you know how I feel about Emma. How there's nothing I wouldn't do for her.
00:04:19And I just was thinking that, uh, well, she mentioned you're an old-fashioned, traditional kind of guy.
00:04:24Okay. And I just wanted to ask your permission to, um, you know...
00:04:30Liam, nothing would make me happier.
00:04:33Really?
00:04:34Oh, yeah. I mean, you're a rising star with a strong head on his shoulders, and I would be proud to have you in the family.
00:04:43And, uh, who knows, maybe you'll be able to convince my daughter to join the company one of these days.
00:04:48Sure, yeah, of course. Thanks, Dad.
00:04:51Uh, let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:04:56John, come in. You're in.
00:04:58Am I interrupting?
00:04:59Uh, as a matter of fact, our finest analyst here is just, uh, asking me for your niece's hand in marriage.
00:05:06Really?
00:05:08Congratulations.
00:05:09Thanks.
00:05:10William, we need to talk about the hotel division.
00:05:12Right.
00:05:14So, anything else?
00:05:16Yeah, there is the, uh, matter of the proposal.
00:05:18Oh, well, I'm sure that's gonna be wonderful.
00:05:20You know, I was thinking the Hacienda de la Sierra.
00:05:22That would be the perfect place to propose to Emma.
00:05:25Whoa, haven't thought about that place in, I don't know, how long?
00:05:28When was the last time we all went down there?
00:05:30Uh, uh, Daniel was still with us, so...
00:05:33Yep.
00:05:3320 years?
00:05:34Yeah.
00:05:35You know, it's special to Emma, and I thought that it'd be in their last Christmas and all, we could...
00:05:38Well, it's about time if you ask me.
00:05:40I mean, that land's gotta be worth a fortune by now.
00:05:43So you think it's a good idea?
00:05:44Yeah, as long as you're back by the second, because I need that NPV evaluation before those investors call us.
00:05:50Yeah, well, I was hoping that you would join us.
00:05:52You know, both of you.
00:05:52Nah, nah, I'm too busy, Liam.
00:05:54Come on.
00:05:55Yeah, but it just, it just wouldn't be the same without the family.
00:05:58I don't know, William.
00:05:59We used to have so much fun on those Christmas trips.
00:06:02Do you have any idea how much work I have to do?
00:06:05Yeah, but wouldn't it be nice to spend some time with our brothers?
00:06:08Come on.
00:06:09I mean, don't you have to visit Marilyn's mother in Boca or something?
00:06:13One can only take so many palmetto bugs.
00:06:16Yeah, I'll tell you what, all right?
00:06:18Find out what the rooms cost.
00:06:19I'll cover the expense, and consider that my engagement present.
00:06:23Yeah, well, that's very generous of you, Dad.
00:06:25Yeah.
00:06:25Or, William.
00:06:26But Emma would be thrilled, I'm sure, if you actually would spend Christmas with us.
00:06:31I'm sure she would.
00:06:32I've got a company to run.
00:06:34Which is why I prepared this.
00:06:35My valuation report.
00:06:39I thought you said you didn't finish it.
00:06:40It's my valuation report on the hacienda.
00:06:43You're right, that land is worth a fortune.
00:06:46You don't miss a trick, do you?
00:06:48Yeah.
00:06:48Isn't that why you hired me?
00:06:51Whoa.
00:06:51So, when exactly are you thinking?
00:07:01Trust me, Mom, you're going to love this place.
00:07:03But I was looking so forward to the two of you coming here.
00:07:07I know, but this could be her last chance before they shut the place down for good.
00:07:10And it would mean a lot if the families could spend Christmas together.
00:07:13And her father actually agreed to this.
00:07:16It took some doing, but yeah.
00:07:17Well, then who am I to say no?
00:07:21Emma's the closest thing I'll ever have to a daughter.
00:07:23Besides, it would be good for me to get out of this freezing cold.
00:07:26Great.
00:07:27Thanks, Mom.
00:07:28Of course.
00:07:29But you know, I can't speak for your aunties.
00:07:31Oh, don't worry.
00:07:32I'm taking care of it.
00:07:33You are?
00:07:34Yep.
00:07:35About to do a Zoom in two minutes.
00:07:37What's a Zoom?
00:07:39I'll fill you in later.
00:07:40Okay.
00:07:40Oh, honey, one more thing.
00:07:41Yeah.
00:07:42Didn't invite him, did you?
00:07:44Dad, you know I wouldn't do that to you.
00:07:49Besides, I think he's in Vermont with what's her name.
00:07:51Okay, thank you.
00:07:57Hi, everybody.
00:07:58Oh, Aunt Tina and Aunt Val are here.
00:08:01Honey, your aunties are in New York.
00:08:04It's Zoom, Mom.
00:08:06Zoom is in New York?
00:08:09I love you.
00:08:10I'll talk to you later.
00:08:11Okay, I love you too.
00:08:14Zoom.
00:08:17Zoom.
00:08:19All right.
00:08:23Aunt Tina, Aunt Val, hey.
00:08:25Our favorite nephew.
00:08:27Gosh, I haven't seen you since...
00:08:29When was it?
00:08:31Thanksgiving, two years ago.
00:08:33Three.
00:08:34Time flies.
00:08:35You and the hubby always have the best Thanksgiving.
00:08:38I'm so sorry I wasn't able to make it.
00:08:41We're used to it.
00:08:42So where do they have you working now, anyway?
00:08:45Georgia.
00:08:46Well, at least you're closer to home.
00:08:48The country.
00:08:49I'm running a medical program for Chechen refugees.
00:08:53Oh.
00:08:54So, Liam, how's your girlfriend doing?
00:08:58Anna?
00:08:59Emma.
00:09:00Actually, that's why I wanted us all to chat.
00:09:02I think we're waiting for a few more.
00:09:04Is Aunt Laura going to join us?
00:09:06Oh, she sends her regrets.
00:09:08She's in Orlando with the family.
00:09:10Well, this is the happiest place on Earth.
00:09:12So who else is joining us?
00:09:15Hi, everyone.
00:09:16This is John, Emma's oldest uncle.
00:09:18John, these are my aunts, Tina and Valerie.
00:09:20Nice to meet you.
00:09:22Hey, hey, what'd I miss?
00:09:24Actually, I was just about to get started.
00:09:26First of all, I want to thank all of you for taking the time to chat.
00:09:31Anytime.
00:09:32And you are who again?
00:09:34Ma'am.
00:09:35Emma's boyfriend.
00:09:37Emma's fiancée.
00:09:39Hey, congratulations.
00:09:41What were you going to tell us?
00:09:42Why am I always the last to know?
00:09:45I can't believe Michelle wouldn't even mention that her only son is getting married.
00:09:50Yeah, well, Michelle knows everything.
00:09:53Michelle, Michelle, Michelle.
00:09:55It's not official.
00:09:57At least not yet.
00:09:58All right, see, I've been trying to find the right time to propose.
00:10:01And there's this resort down in Arizona.
00:10:04Wait.
00:10:05He doesn't mean he does.
00:10:08Yeah.
00:10:08If you all take a look on your screens.
00:10:11That old place is still there?
00:10:14Well, actually, they just announced their closing.
00:10:17You see, Emma has such fond memories of this place as a kid.
00:10:21And I thought it would be fun if we all went there for one last Christmas before they closed
00:10:25for good.
00:10:26As one big family.
00:10:29This Christmas?
00:10:30We've got a black room starting the 21st.
00:10:32I'm in the middle of a new project.
00:10:35You're an inventor.
00:10:37You work for yourself.
00:10:38I'm an entrepreneur.
00:10:40I would love to, but I just accepted a new post in Kenya.
00:10:44There's a hospital in Nairobi that needs some help.
00:10:47Look, I know it's a lot to ask.
00:10:50But my mother and Emma's father have already agreed.
00:10:52Wait.
00:10:54Are you actually telling me that William has agreed to take time off from work?
00:10:58I understand if you can't make it, but I promise if you do, it will be a Christmas
00:11:04you will never forget.
00:11:05And it'll be a surprise that Emma will remember forever.
00:11:09Honey?
00:11:33Hi, I'm in here.
00:11:35Oh, something smells delicious.
00:11:37I had the most overwhelming day at work today.
00:11:41Emma Howard, are you stressed baking again?
00:11:43Guilty as charged.
00:11:45I'm sure whatever campaign it is you're working on will be as wonderful as usual.
00:11:51Can I show it to you?
00:11:53Yeah.
00:11:55What do you think?
00:11:56Is it too busy?
00:11:57Be honest.
00:11:59Do you hate it?
00:12:00No, no, it's great.
00:12:01Have a seat.
00:12:01Have a seat.
00:12:06Okay.
00:12:08Look, I know we said we weren't doing presents this year, right?
00:12:10But I saw how upset you were last night and I wanted to do something special.
00:12:15What did you do?
00:12:19Open it.
00:12:20Don't you want me to wait for Christmas morning or...
00:12:23No, I wouldn't.
00:12:24I wouldn't.
00:12:28Phoenix?
00:12:29It's close to the airport to the Grand Canyon.
00:12:32Wait, do you mean...
00:12:33I know we were supposed to visit my mom, but we can't let the world famous Hacienda Day
00:12:37last year close without us spending one last Christmas there, right?
00:12:40Same.
00:12:41Is this a yes?
00:12:42That is a heck yes.
00:12:46Great.
00:12:47Oh, I'm going to text my family.
00:12:49They are never going to believe this.
00:12:51You're right.
00:12:53They're not.
00:12:53And I should tell Marjorie that she needs to reschedule my meetings.
00:12:58That's a good idea.
00:13:01Love you so much.
00:13:04I love you too.
00:13:05This is the best Christmas ever.
00:13:20Indeed.
00:13:26Final call for flight 2847, non-stop service to Phoenix.
00:13:30Hey, hey, Santa.
00:13:32Down this all across the sky.
00:13:35There's a chill in the air, good cheer everywhere, it's all right.
00:13:45People getting ready, Christmas is about to take flight.
00:13:52I wonder if they still have the stables.
00:13:55We used to love to go horseback riding.
00:13:57And they do the cutest gingerbread house.
00:14:00And a holiday hoedown with music and dancing.
00:14:05What?
00:14:07I don't think I've ever seen you so excited.
00:14:09I am.
00:14:11Very.
00:14:13And I'm really excited to share this with you.
00:14:15Like I said, new traditions, right?
00:14:20Yeah.
00:14:21Love you.
00:14:23I will say this, though.
00:14:25I sure don't miss the cold.
00:14:27Neither do I.
00:14:29Oh, but we do have to try the hot chocolate.
00:14:31It melted down from scratch and it is like the richest thing I've ever tried.
00:14:35I was 12.
00:14:37Hey, I was 12.
00:14:38Here we go
00:15:01I said
00:15:02Ho, ho, ho
00:15:03Let it flow
00:15:05Ho, ho, ho
00:15:07Silly is the best of time
00:15:10Rise, silly fly
00:15:13Yeah
00:15:14We will get ready
00:15:18Christmas is about to take flight
00:15:21What do I like?
00:15:32Hold up, of course
00:15:33Oh
00:15:35He's going to grab that
00:15:37Don't worry
00:15:37Oh, thank you
00:15:38Come on
00:15:39Wow
00:15:48It's beautiful, right?
00:15:50You weren't kidding
00:15:51I mean, this is like
00:15:52Right in here
00:15:54Good afternoon
00:15:57Welcome to the Hacienda de la Sierra
00:15:59Liam O'Brien
00:16:00We have a reservation
00:16:01All right, let me check
00:16:03All right, I have you checking out on the 26th, correct?
00:16:08Yep
00:16:08All right, how many keys?
00:16:10Two, please
00:16:10All right
00:16:11Here's your two keys
00:16:13Thank you
00:16:13Your messages
00:16:15Messages?
00:16:17Who knows that we're here?
00:16:19I, uh
00:16:20Must have said something at the office before I left
00:16:22Well, it is a holiday
00:16:25I know my dad works all the time
00:16:26But you, sir
00:16:27Do not
00:16:28Right
00:16:29Do you have a list of the Christmas festivities?
00:16:31Oh, yes
00:16:31Uh, right here
00:16:32Uh, the hoedown has been cancelled
00:16:35You're kidding
00:16:37Lack of interest, I guess
00:16:38But we still do the gingerbread house set up, um, back there
00:16:42Oh, really?
00:16:43I'm gonna go take a look
00:16:44I'll see you when you finish up your book, okay?
00:16:45Okay
00:16:45I'll come find you
00:16:46Okay
00:16:47Have, uh
00:16:50They started arriving, sir
00:16:52Okay, great
00:16:53I appreciate the discretion
00:16:55Enjoy your stay at the Hacienda Dale and Sierra
00:16:58Thank you
00:16:59Holiday spirit
00:17:04Emma?
00:17:13I'm over here
00:17:15Isn't it great?
00:17:20Totally
00:17:20Now we need her some Oompa Loompas
00:17:22It's childish, isn't it?
00:17:28It's adorable
00:17:29Well, all of this candy is making me hungry
00:17:33Good, because I made reservations at Saguaro Royale tonight
00:17:36You did?
00:17:38That place is expensive
00:17:40It's a special occasion
00:17:42Isn't it?
00:17:44Hello?
00:17:45Can you hear me now?
00:17:47Besides
00:17:47The place looked romantic
00:17:49I like the sound of that
00:17:51Yeah, me too
00:17:52But promise me tomorrow
00:17:54I get to show you
00:17:55All the reasons
00:17:55Why this place is so amazing
00:17:57Ma'am
00:17:58I promise
00:18:00Tomorrow?
00:18:02I got
00:18:02Yeah
00:18:03Okay
00:18:03I hear you
00:18:04I'm in your hands
00:18:06Yeah, what I was trying to say was
00:18:21Hello?
00:18:23Yeah
00:18:23Yeah, I was trying to say
00:18:25Look, as soon as I get
00:18:27Wi-Fi
00:18:28I'm going to
00:18:28I'm going to forward you the offer
00:18:30Yeah
00:18:30Yeah, the offer
00:18:31Right
00:18:31Yeah
00:18:32I'm in kind of in a
00:18:34On a bit of a retreat right now
00:18:35So I've got a lousy signal
00:18:36But
00:18:36Just, uh
00:18:38Hello?
00:18:41Lou?
00:18:44How can you even think about working in a place like this?
00:18:48Excuse me?
00:18:50Did you really drive two hours from the nearest city just to conduct business?
00:18:54Yeah, part of the joys of running your own business
00:18:55You never get to say no
00:18:57It's really not that hard
00:18:58Oh, no
00:18:59See? You're learning already
00:19:01Okay, all right, okay
00:19:03I'm William
00:19:04Yes, I know
00:19:05Have we met?
00:19:09Michelle O'Brien
00:19:10Ah, Liam's mom
00:19:13Emma's father
00:19:14How are you?
00:19:15I've heard so much about you
00:19:16I mean, Emma thinks the world of you
00:19:18She's
00:19:19Long time since she's
00:19:21You know
00:19:22Had a mother figure
00:19:23Yeah, I know
00:19:24She's a remarkable young lady
00:19:26You know, I actually see a lot of her in you
00:19:29Don't you ever let Emma hear you say that
00:19:31So, this is your old stomping grounds, is it?
00:19:37Yep
00:19:37Had a lot of great Christmases here
00:19:40A lot of good memories
00:19:41Of course, that was a long time ago
00:19:43Well, there's still time to make a few more
00:19:47Oh, boy
00:19:49All right
00:19:49I'm sorry
00:19:50Hey, Kit
00:19:51I'll see you at dinner
00:19:53Yes
00:19:54Hey, yes
00:19:56Okay, there you are
00:19:57Yeah
00:19:57I hear you, Lou
00:19:58Yep
00:19:59Merry Christmas
00:20:15Pete
00:20:17You got a sweet?
00:20:19I thought I'd give you a more traditional Christmas
00:20:21Oh, here
00:20:23Thank you
00:20:24I am so excited to see what you have planned for us
00:20:29Huh
00:20:29First things first
00:20:30Dinner
00:20:31I'm starving
00:20:32Or we could just skip the fancy romantic dinner and
00:20:35Have a burger
00:20:36No
00:20:54Watch out, Santa
00:21:14Okay
00:21:18Everything okay in there?
00:21:29Yeah
00:21:29Everything's fine
00:21:30Just, uh
00:21:31Turn the lights on
00:21:33And make chair banglers
00:21:34Wow
00:21:44You look beautiful
00:21:46It's just something I picked up after work yesterday
00:21:50All we're missing
00:21:53Is a little mistletoe
00:21:57Right
00:21:58He trapped me
00:22:03Oh, I did
00:22:04I trapped you
00:22:06Clever boy
00:22:07Come on, let's go
00:22:11After you
00:22:12Good evening, Mr. O'Brien
00:22:21Welcome to the Saguaro Royale
00:22:23Thank you
00:22:24If you care to follow me
00:22:26Yeah
00:22:26Damn, what is going on?
00:22:36Surprise!
00:22:39What?
00:22:39Dad?
00:22:40Uncle John?
00:22:42Ryan?
00:22:43Wonderful
00:22:44Michelle, hi
00:22:46How?
00:22:48How do you think?
00:22:50You did all of this for me?
00:22:52Well, I thought
00:22:53Why not one last Christmas at the Hacienda with the family
00:22:56Just like you did as a kid
00:22:57I love you
00:22:58I love you too
00:22:59Best Christmas ever
00:23:02You better get seated
00:23:03We have a Christmas celebration to get to, right?
00:23:05Yes
00:23:06Hi, sweetheart
00:23:09Hey, Mom
00:23:10I just can't believe that you hadn't figured this out
00:23:20Well, I can't believe you took time off work to be here
00:23:23Well, that's because you have a very persuasive boyfriend
00:23:26No, I thought you hired me for my looks
00:23:28Ever since she was a little girl
00:23:29She knew what every Christmas present was under that tree
00:23:32Before she opened it
00:23:33Used to call her Sherlock Emmy
00:23:35Okay, well, it was not rocket science, Dad
00:23:37I mean, I was technically the one that asked you for the gifts
00:23:40You should try watching a mystery show with her
00:23:42She'll have the thing figured out by the first commercial
00:23:44He is exaggerating
00:23:46But seriously, though
00:23:48I couldn't have done this without your help
00:23:49Or am I
00:23:50Oh, I am so happy to see you
00:23:53I wouldn't have missed it for the world
00:23:55Seems you've raised quite a son
00:23:58And he found quite the daughter
00:23:59Yeah, well, I will raise my
00:24:02What is this called again?
00:24:03Wassel
00:24:04I will raise my wassel to that
00:24:06Me too
00:24:07To you
00:24:08Whatever
00:24:09Cheers
00:24:10Yeah
00:24:10And where's Aunt Judy?
00:24:12Skiing with the twins in Vermont
00:24:14Thank you for the excuse
00:24:15Oh, not a fan of skiing?
00:24:18Don't like the cold
00:24:19Oh
00:24:20Can I borrow you for a second?
00:24:22Have you seen Andrew around?
00:24:23He called
00:24:24He says he's running late
00:24:25I'll tell you
00:24:27He's going to happen to be late for his own funeral
00:24:29Just a second, William
00:24:30I promise
00:24:31All right, all right
00:24:33Excuse me
00:24:34What?
00:24:36I wonder what that's all about
00:24:38Uncle Brian is
00:24:40Uncle Brian is
00:24:40A bit of a
00:24:42Inventor?
00:24:43Entrepreneur
00:24:44I mean, he's always into something
00:24:46Yeah
00:24:46Always looking for a new investment
00:24:48Oh, I see
00:24:50Anything worthwhile?
00:24:51No
00:24:52No
00:24:53Okay, no
00:24:55Got it
00:24:58Oh, good
00:24:59Hi
00:25:01It's so good to see everyone
00:25:03Liam, Emma, Michelle, Val and Scott
00:25:07I just talked to Laura
00:25:09She sends her best
00:25:11Laura, Laura, Laura
00:25:12Great
00:25:13Ready to get started?
00:25:16All right
00:25:17I know many of you will accuse me of wanting to hear myself speak
00:25:27So I will keep this brief
00:25:29First and foremost
00:25:32I want to thank each and every one of you
00:25:34For taking the time out of your busy lives
00:25:35Especially during Christmas
00:25:37To spend a few days here with us
00:25:40You know, I've been
00:25:42Hearing stories about this place
00:25:45Ever since I met Emma
00:25:46And I will tell you
00:25:48Nothing is more special than having all of you here
00:25:50To celebrate one last Christmas with us
00:25:53Babe, you're going to make me cry
00:25:55So, um
00:26:02I would like to propose
00:26:05A toast
00:26:09To, uh, family
00:26:12Friends
00:26:14And what's sure to be
00:26:16A Christmas we will never forget
00:26:19Cheers
00:26:21Is it true that they cancelled the hoedown this year?
00:26:25Yeah
00:26:27Yeah, yeah
00:26:28But there's plenty to do
00:26:29In fact, make sure you get some sleep tonight
00:26:31Because I have some very special plans for you tomorrow morning
00:26:34Okay
00:26:52Hey
00:26:53Hey
00:26:53So
00:26:57Given any thought to when you're gonna
00:26:59Know?
00:27:02Not yet
00:27:03Well, just don't wait till the last minute
00:27:06We all need a chance to celebrate
00:27:07I know
00:27:09I know
00:27:10You're nervous
00:27:11No
00:27:13You're fidgeting
00:27:14The cup's hot
00:27:16It's not that hot
00:27:17She's a lovely young lady
00:27:21She comes from a wonderful family
00:27:23And her father's my boss
00:27:25Which is a good indication that he likes you
00:27:29Mandy's successful
00:27:33I mean, he
00:27:34Started his own firm in his 20s
00:27:36And I'm what?
00:27:39An analyst?
00:27:40That's practically one rung above mailroom
00:27:42And everyone starts somewhere
00:27:45We all know that
00:27:46She knows that
00:27:46The only thing that matters
00:27:49Is that she's crazy about you
00:27:50So you go and show my future daughter-in-law
00:27:53That you're crazy about her too
00:27:55Love you
00:27:59Love you too
00:28:02Don't wait till the last minute
00:28:05Okay
00:28:05There you are, Michelle
00:28:12Oh
00:28:13Hi
00:28:13This is reminding me of Christmases when we were little
00:28:20No family under one roof
00:28:22Before we split up all over the country
00:28:24And the world
00:28:26Scott having a good time?
00:28:29Well, I think that one of Emma's uncles
00:28:32Is trying to talk him into investing in some new invention
00:28:36Oh, that would be Brian
00:28:38Is he okay?
00:28:43Yeah
00:28:44She's a little nervous
00:28:45But I'm not
00:28:47Everything's gonna be just fine
00:28:50Okay, well
00:28:53I do have to admit
00:28:54You got me on that one
00:28:56Oh
00:28:57You mean I stumped Sherlock Emmy?
00:28:59I'm being serious
00:29:00Thank you
00:29:02For everything
00:29:04You're welcome
00:29:05I mean
00:29:08The man just doesn't quit, does he?
00:29:12Promise me one thing
00:29:13What's that?
00:29:15That you and I will get a couple of hours
00:29:17Each day
00:29:18Just the two of us
00:29:19I guess there's
00:29:21Such thing as too much family, isn't there?
00:29:24Yes
00:29:25Hey, Liam
00:29:26It appears I'm being beckoned
00:29:31Don't want to keep the boss waiting
00:29:33Or the girlfriend
00:29:34I'll be up in a minute
00:29:39Yeah
00:29:39Hey, uh, go ahead
00:29:48Tell him
00:29:49Tell me what?
00:29:50I was talking to the owner before dinner
00:29:51And it appears the city is warm to the idea of rezoning
00:29:55I don't understand
00:29:57I thought it would be an ideal opportunity for the hotel division
00:30:01It would be even more valuable as an industrial investment
00:30:05Oh, yeah
00:30:05I was hoping that we could preserve some of the charm, you know?
00:30:09Don't get me wrong
00:30:10I mean, it's a beautiful place
00:30:11But think about it
00:30:12If it was so profitable as a resort
00:30:15Why would they be so willing to part with it?
00:30:18I've been working on it
00:30:19I figured that they were going to retire
00:30:21No, you're working on it
00:30:21It's still your project
00:30:22And with your percentage
00:30:24You're going to be able to provide for my daughter
00:30:25For years and years to come
00:30:26Good job, son
00:30:28Good job
00:30:29I mean, with your instinct
00:30:31You are not going to be an analyst for long
00:30:34Well
00:30:35We have a very busy day tomorrow
00:30:37Lots of surprises, yes?
00:30:40Yeah
00:30:40Good work
00:30:41Good night
00:30:43My project
00:31:10Thank you very much, sir
00:31:25Good night
00:31:26Good night
00:31:27Good night
00:31:28Good night

00:31:50Good night
00:31:51Good night
00:31:52Good night
00:31:53Good night
00:31:54Oh, my God.
00:32:24Oh, my God.
00:32:54Liam, wake up.
00:32:58I heard somebody on the hall.
00:33:00It's a hotel.
00:33:06It's 3 o'clock in the morning.
00:33:10Maybe it's Santa.
00:33:13I'm being serious.
00:33:16Go.
00:33:17Okay, okay.
00:33:23I'll go, look.
00:33:28Okay.
00:33:29Do you hear anything?
00:33:54Nothing.
00:33:54Oh, my God.
00:34:04Uncle Andrew?
00:34:11Emma.
00:34:12Oh, sweetie.
00:34:13Hey, you're Andrew?
00:34:17Yeah.
00:34:19Hey, sorry I'm so late.
00:34:20I didn't even leave L.A. until like 10.
00:34:22Andrew.
00:34:24I should have known.
00:34:25Hey, Brian.
00:34:28Hey, are you still in costume?
00:34:31I came straight from the theater.
00:34:33I'm playing Bob Gretchen.
00:34:35You missed a little, uh...
00:34:36What is it?
00:34:37A little makeup.
00:34:39Oh.
00:34:40So what did I miss?
00:34:41Sleep?
00:34:46Good night.
00:34:49I guess it is a little late.
00:34:51Yeah, just a little.
00:34:53Well, it's great to meet you in person, finally.
00:34:56Do you happen to have...
00:34:57Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:34:58Let me get your key for you.
00:35:02Sorry.
00:35:03Good costume, though.
00:35:07So, we'll see you in the morning?
00:35:09Mm-hmm.
00:35:10Good night.
00:35:10Good night.
00:35:18What?
00:35:19I'm starving.
00:35:20I'm starving.
00:35:20This holiday season...
00:35:30I don't care.
00:35:46Now I've got a new...
00:35:47Hey, thanks for meeting me here.
00:35:49Oh, of course.
00:35:50Uh, here's everything for today.
00:35:51All right.
00:35:52And the shuttle bus is all set.
00:35:56Mm.
00:35:58Hey, you wouldn't have nowhere
00:35:59to get one of those hot chocolates, would you?
00:36:01Mm-hmm.
00:36:01Mm-hmm.
00:36:05Anything else I can get for you, sir?
00:36:06I'd take two of those hot chocolates, please.
00:36:09Here you go.
00:36:11Mm.
00:36:12Let's do it.
00:36:13Mm.
00:36:14Thanks.
00:36:15My pleasure.
00:36:18Hey, well, you're up early.
00:36:21Just making sure everything's in order for today.
00:36:23Take a load off.
00:36:25Yeah.
00:36:26I think I have a moment.
00:36:27Hey, is that...
00:36:33Emma said I had to try it.
00:36:35And?
00:36:36This is really good, actually.
00:36:40I heard about last night.
00:36:41My brother always knew how to make an entrance,
00:36:43even before he was an actor.
00:36:45Yeah, seems like he's doing really well for himself.
00:36:47Well, community theater.
00:36:50Yeah.
00:36:51He's doing what he loves.
00:36:52He should have come to work at the firm
00:36:54with William and me.
00:36:54Yeah.
00:36:57Speaking of...
00:37:00Were you serious about rezoning?
00:37:02You don't approve?
00:37:03It's not me I'm worried about.
00:37:05Emma?
00:37:07This place is important to her.
00:37:10Yeah.
00:37:11She'll get over it.
00:37:14I wouldn't be so sure.
00:37:17She's not like her father.
00:37:18Well, between you and me,
00:37:19that might not be such a bad thing.
00:37:21You know, the family was different
00:37:22before Emma's mother passed.
00:37:25William was different.
00:37:28Oh.
00:37:31Maybe he just needs to meet someone new.
00:37:33Maybe.
00:37:34Not interrupting, am I?
00:37:35No.
00:37:36No, but I better get these hot chocolates up to Emma
00:37:38before she sends out a search party.
00:37:41Oh, well, fine.
00:37:42Be that way.
00:37:42We'll just talk about you behind your back.
00:37:44Don't forget.
00:37:4510 a.m. sharp out front.
00:37:46You do know this is a vacation, right?
00:37:49Okay, fine.
00:37:5010.05.
00:37:50But if you're not there, we'll leave them without you.
00:37:52You too.
00:37:53No, I'm going to sit this one out.
00:37:55If you'll excuse me, I have a meeting about that thing.
00:38:00Right.
00:38:00Excuse me.
00:38:03I have to loosen everybody up around here.
00:38:08Meeting about a thing.
00:38:09It's Christmas.
00:38:11What are we doing out here?
00:38:24We're just having a little family fun.
00:38:41Can't we have family fun with air conditioning?
00:38:44You okay?
00:38:45Yeah.
00:38:46It's been a while.
00:38:47Since you walked?
00:38:49You're very funny.
00:38:51My brother's idea of exercise is 100 words a minute.
00:38:54But he was on the track team.
00:38:56Ah, he was the manager of the track team.
00:38:59He needed a letterman's jacket to impress a girl.
00:39:01Yeah.
00:39:02Jennifer Johnson, the one that got away.
00:39:06I know you show me pictures, but that does not do it justice.
00:39:09Would I lie?
00:39:10You should do this every year.
00:39:12Don't act so surprised.
00:39:14You and I hike Indian dudes together.
00:39:16Oh, that is not the same.
00:39:17Well, relax, city slicker.
00:39:19We're almost there.
00:39:21Welcome to the Christmas tree.
00:39:36That's not what it's really called, is it?
00:39:38It's just because from a distance, it's shaped like a tree.
00:39:41Emmy's been calling it that ever since she's a little girl.
00:39:44You know what?
00:39:45You're right.
00:39:45Yeah.
00:39:47This was really thoughtful.
00:39:48Well, I thought that this would be a special place for, um...
00:39:58Hey, do you guys remember how Danielle used to hoist Emma up and say,
00:40:04she's the star on top?
00:40:07Yeah.
00:40:08Your mother was a special person.
00:40:14I'm sorry, guys.
00:40:15Sorry.
00:40:15Ugh.
00:40:17Hey.
00:40:18No.
00:40:18Dad?
00:40:20Dad?
00:40:21What a smooth move.
00:40:35All right.
00:40:36Since we've come all the way up here, let's make snowmen.
00:40:40Yeah.
00:40:41I'm about to get it.
00:40:43Snowmen?
00:40:44Three?
00:40:45Looks like Liam's already into the spirit.
00:40:47Come on.
00:40:48Let's go.
00:40:48I'm game.
00:40:49Come on.
00:40:50Come on.
00:40:58Everybody get around.
00:41:01The season of joy has come to town.
00:41:05Decorating and having fun.
00:41:07The holidays have just begun.
00:41:09Every boy and every girl in every corner of the world.
00:41:22The spirit of Christmas is everywhere you go.
00:41:27Whoa.
00:41:28You don't need play-go, mistletoe, or snow.
00:41:33Whoa.
00:41:35We all get together this time of year.
00:41:38Cause everybody knows.
00:41:41The spirit of Christmas is everywhere you go.
00:41:45The spirit of Christmas is everywhere you go.
00:41:58I'll tell you, I think these are our best rock men yet.
00:42:02True.
00:42:03I think you're right.
00:42:06Thanks for coming, Dan.
00:42:10Wouldn't miss it.
00:42:11Wouldn't miss it for the world.
00:42:12Thank you so much for today.
00:42:17It was so special.
00:42:20It's always special.
00:42:21As long as it's with you.
00:42:25I don't understand.
00:42:44I used sunscreen.
00:42:47Which one, eh, Valerie?
00:42:50The blue bottle, like you told me.
00:42:52No, I said the green bottle.
00:42:53The blue bottle was suntan lotion.
00:42:55I am not leaving this room.
00:42:58Ever.
00:42:59Oh, no, no, no.
00:43:00We have Christmas charoling tonight.
00:43:02We all have to go.
00:43:04Not me.
00:43:06You know, I called downstairs for some aloe.
00:43:09And they sent up a bottle of shampoo.
00:43:12Okay, why don't I go downstairs and see if they have any aloe?
00:43:16Wait.
00:43:17Are you sure?
00:43:17Yeah, of course.
00:43:19We're family.
00:43:20Nice.
00:43:20Nothing to say as usual, Scott?
00:43:22I look like a roasted tomato.
00:43:29It's not that bad.
00:43:40Hello.
00:43:41Hi.
00:43:42Can I help you?
00:43:43Aloe vera?
00:43:44Oh, sure.
00:43:45It's right here.
00:43:46Yeah.
00:43:47Green bottle.
00:43:51Gosh, you look so familiar to me.
00:43:53Have we met?
00:43:54Depends.
00:43:55Is this your first day at the Hacienda?
00:43:57Oh, no.
00:43:58I used to come here every Christmas with my family when I was little.
00:44:01Yeah, well, that explains it.
00:44:04Yeah, but that was a long time ago.
00:44:06Well, I guess you could say I've always been here.
00:44:09I mean, this old hotel is a part of me, and I'm a part of it.
00:44:14Such a shame that it has to close.
00:44:17Yeah, it won't be the same.
00:44:18But you know one thing I've learned about places like this?
00:44:20Eventually, the memories become just as strong as a building.
00:44:27I guess I hadn't really thought about it like that.
00:44:30You know, a lot of people have passed through here,
00:44:32and I like to think that each one of them took a little piece of this place with them when they left,
00:44:37including this little girl right here.
00:44:42Wow, that's me.
00:44:44I'm with my mom and dad.
00:44:46I couldn't have been more than five or six years old.
00:44:49Yeah, I bet it seems like it was only yesterday.
00:44:53It does.
00:44:55I'm Emma, by the way.
00:44:57Emma Howard.
00:44:58Well, it's nice to meet you, Emma Howard.
00:45:00I'm Nicole.
00:45:01So you're here with your family now?
00:45:03Two families, if you can believe that.
00:45:06Mine and my boyfriend's.
00:45:07Two.
00:45:08Yeah.
00:45:09He planned for us to spend one last Christmas here before the place closes.
00:45:13Even got my dad to come along.
00:45:15Let me guess.
00:45:16Works a lot?
00:45:17If by a lot you mean always, then yes.
00:45:21Sounds like this boyfriend is quite the guy.
00:45:25He is.
00:45:27That must be so nice, everyone spending time together under one roof.
00:45:31Actually, it's been quite a handful.
00:45:34Can I tell you a secret?
00:45:35Most worthwhile things usually are.
00:45:41How much for the aloe?
00:45:42Don't worry about it.
00:45:44Are you sure?
00:45:45Well, I think your boyfriend's aunt needs it more than I do.
00:45:48Right.
00:45:49Emma?
00:45:51We got worried about you.
00:45:52Thought you might have gotten lost.
00:45:54Liam, I was literally just talking about you.
00:45:56Although, how did you know this was for his?
00:46:07Okay, that's crazy.
00:46:09She was literally just here.
00:46:11Who?
00:46:13Nicole.
00:46:14It was a woman who works here that knew I was getting this for your aunt.
00:46:19Maybe she just overheard you talking.
00:46:20I guess.
00:46:23Come on.
00:46:24Let's get this upstairs before my aunt starts doing the ouchy dance.
00:46:28It's probably too late for that.
00:46:29Yeah, probably.
00:46:30Probably.
00:46:45Oh, no.
00:46:48What?
00:46:48You can't go Christmas caroling like that.
00:46:53Like what?
00:46:53Like you're dressed up for a night out on the town.
00:46:56Where's the color?
00:46:58The Christmas flare?
00:47:01I mean...
00:47:02I think I have the perfect thing.
00:47:05We're supposed to meet everyone in the lobby in, like, ten minutes.
00:47:08Plenty of time to change.
00:47:09What?
00:47:09What?
00:47:18You can't be serious.
00:47:21When in Rome?
00:47:23Rome or the North Pole?
00:47:24Come on.
00:47:26Be good sport.
00:47:27Merry Christmas, Bob, said Scrooge with an earnestness that could not be mistaken, as he clapped him on the back.
00:47:39A merrier Christmas, Bob, my good fellow, than I have given you for many a year.
00:47:44I will raise your salary and endeavor to help your struggling family.
00:47:48He's quite something.
00:47:50Rah, rah, rah, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:47:52Ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:47:54Emma, your uncle was just giving us highlights of his show.
00:47:59Oh, well, is everyone ready for some Christmas caroling?
00:48:01We don't all have to wear that, do we?
00:48:03Was your niece's idea?
00:48:05I think you should wear that into the office.
00:48:07Well, like she said, when in Rome.
00:48:10Are you ready to go, Daddy?
00:48:11Hey, sweetie, how long do you think this is going to take?
00:48:14The only thing you need to worry about right now is remembering the lyrics to Jingle Bells.
00:48:19Is everybody here?
00:48:20Where's your aunt?
00:48:22Sunburn.
00:48:23Well, if she's not coming, I don't see why I...
00:48:26Because you love supporting your family, that's why.
00:48:29Okay, everyone, gather round, gather round.
00:48:33Every year at Christmastime, we Howards used to love to join the hotel's caroling night,
00:48:38singing and spreading Christmas joy.
00:48:41As I recall, William used to carry you around on his shoulders.
00:48:45Well, you're on your own now, sweetie, because my back ain't what it used to be.
00:48:49Well, I took the liberty of printing out some of the lyrics.
00:48:52Not that I think you guys need them, but...
00:48:54Auld Lang Syne?
00:48:56Yeah, what about it?
00:48:57It's not a Christmas song.
00:48:59Of course it is.
00:49:01It's an old Scottish folk song.
00:49:02It has nothing to do with Christmas.
00:49:04Except for that it's sung at Christmastime.
00:49:08It's sung at New Year's.
00:49:09Okay, we can worry about that later.
00:49:11Shall we begin?
00:49:13Let's go.
00:49:13Good idea.
00:49:16She's right.
00:49:18It's a Christmas song.
00:49:23Hey, wait for me.
00:49:24On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, six geese a-lay, five golden rings,
00:49:38four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.
00:49:46Follow me in merry measure.
00:49:49Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
00:49:52We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas,
00:49:59and a happy new year.
00:50:02Good tidings we bring to you and your kin.
00:50:06Good tidings for Christmas.
00:50:09And a happy new year.
00:50:12And a happy new year.
00:50:13Cheers.
00:50:14Good tidings for Christmas.
00:50:16Good tidings.
00:50:17Good tidings.
00:50:18Good tidings.
00:50:21So beautiful, isn't it?
00:50:32Um, actually, I wanted to talk to you.
00:50:36Oh, yeah?
00:50:37Emma, these past few years with you have been magical.
00:50:44They sure have.
00:50:46Oh, you know what? We should take a Christmas photo.
00:50:49Um, actually, I...
00:50:50Hey, you guys, can we take a photo?
00:50:52Would you marry me?
00:50:53Nothing would make me happier, Liam.
00:50:55Gather in.
00:50:56Honey, you can't take the photo. You're part of the family.
00:50:59Yeah, why don't we wait till everyone's here?
00:51:00I was just going to take something to remember the night.
00:51:02Excuse me, ma'am. Can I borrow you for a minute?
00:51:05Of course.
00:51:07Well, if it isn't Emma Howard and her two families.
00:51:11You've met?
00:51:12Yes, this is the woman I was telling you about. This is Nicole.
00:51:15And how is your aunt doing?
00:51:17Much better. Thanks.
00:51:18Would you mind taking a photo for us?
00:51:20Of course not.
00:51:21Hey, why don't we do it over by the Christmas tree?
00:51:23All right.
00:51:24It's Christmas.
00:51:25Hey, hey, hey, maybe we should have Emma and Liam in the front.
00:51:28Come on.
00:51:28No, it's okay, as long as we're all in here.
00:51:30No, no, no, here we go.
00:51:31You two kids should be front and center.
00:51:32I don't know. We're not children.
00:51:34That's what we do.
00:51:34Age before beauty, isn't it?
00:51:36Okay, that's my point.
00:51:37I'm sorry.
00:51:38I can't see of a girl's head.
00:51:39You never could.
00:51:40You can always run a smart one.
00:51:41I can't take you to anywhere.
00:51:43You won't.
00:51:44Hey, why don't we do it by height?
00:51:46Oh, you like that?
00:51:47It's not a class photo. Come on, try to cooperate.
00:51:50No, I'm always in the back.
00:51:51Is everybody ready?
00:51:52Oh, yeah.
00:51:53Say candy cane.
00:51:54Candy cane.
00:51:57There you go.
00:51:58Thanks.
00:51:59All right.
00:51:59For Pete's sake, I cannot take you people anywhere.
00:52:06Would you mind?
00:52:09What's up?
00:52:11She's gone again.
00:52:13How is it?
00:52:15Don't ask.
00:52:16Andrew.
00:52:16Andrew, I'm walking.
00:52:19I'm so sorry.
00:52:21Are you okay?
00:52:23Thanks.
00:52:25On that sweater, you really can't even tell.
00:52:27Excuse me.
00:52:34Yeah, good going, guys.
00:52:35Come on.
00:52:44Merry Christmas.
00:52:51I thought I might find you here.
00:52:53I just wanted everyone to have a good time.
00:52:59Come on.
00:52:59Let's take a walk.
00:53:03Everyone is having a good time.
00:53:07And not like we used to.
00:53:09Well, what you expect.
00:53:10You're a grown-up.
00:53:11Everyone has their own lives, own families.
00:53:15Liam tried so hard, you know?
00:53:17Well, I believe I saw your father singing Christmas carols this evening.
00:53:22And I'd venture to guess it's been a while since he did that.
00:53:27Yes.
00:53:28No, I can't go back in time.
00:53:31The past is always with us.
00:53:34Here I am.
00:53:36Well, I can only speak for myself.
00:53:39But I'm having a wonderful time.
00:53:41And those people who love you,
00:53:45they came from all over the country just to spend time with you.
00:53:49And it seems to me like that is a very Merry Christmas.
00:53:54Don't you think?
00:53:56Give me a hug.
00:53:57Come on.
00:54:00Okay.
00:54:01Let's go back in there.
00:54:04Show them that big old Emma smile.
00:54:05There it is.
00:54:08There it is.
00:54:09Come on, sweetheart.
00:54:19And they're actually interested in developing the whole parcel.
00:54:23Oof.
00:54:24I'm glad you talked me into coming.
00:54:26Hacienda de la Sierra may be our biggest deal of the new year.
00:54:29Good going.
00:54:34Emma.
00:54:35Emma, wait.
00:54:41My union.
00:54:47So that's how you got him to come?
00:54:48It's not what you think.
00:54:50We couldn't let the world-famous Hacienda de la Sierra close without one less Christmas here, could we?
00:54:56I meant it.
00:54:57I was so touched that you wanted to do that for me.
00:55:02I did.
00:55:02Are you sure?
00:55:03Or is it because it's going to be the biggest deal of the year?
00:55:07Okay.
00:55:09So it might have taken a little motivation for your father.
00:55:11Yeah, of course.
00:55:12But it was all for the family.
00:55:13Just tell me the truth, Liam.
00:55:14Did you want to spend Christmas here with me or did you want to assess a property with my father?
00:55:20How could you even ask that?
00:55:22Emma, you're just always trying to prove yourself to him.
00:55:26Congratulations.
00:55:28Looks like you did it.
00:55:30Emma.
00:55:31Just face it.
00:55:32This trip has been one disaster after another.
00:55:35That is not true.
00:55:37And then, surprise.
00:55:39Nobody wanted to be here anyway.
00:55:41That is not fair.
00:55:42Where are you going?
00:55:43I need air.
00:55:44Emma, wait.
00:55:45Emma.
00:56:12Peace on earth, peace on earth, peace on earth, peace on earth,
00:56:42And today, for buckle up.
00:56:48Accept this.
00:56:50Oh.
00:56:51Well, look at this.
00:56:53You know, your mom, you know, she used to bake when she was upset.
00:57:00Well, Liam calls it stress baking.
00:57:03Nice.
00:57:04That is look good.
00:57:06I take it, uh, that the two of you have not patched things up yet?
00:57:12I just don't know how he could do that.
00:57:15I don't know how you could do that.
00:57:19He did it.
00:57:20He did it because he loves you, Emmy.
00:57:22He knows that your old man is a workaholic
00:57:24who doesn't always have his head screwed on right.
00:57:27More like, screwed on too tight.
00:57:31Well, I'll tell you,
00:57:34when Liam came to me and told me the idea,
00:57:38I kind of thought it was crazy.
00:57:40But possibly one of the most romantic things I've ever heard.
00:57:45It's not what it seemed like last night.
00:57:48I'm sorry you had to find out that way.
00:57:50I was going to tell you.
00:57:51Oh, you were?
00:57:53Before or after you tore the place down.
00:57:57All right, you want to be mad at somebody?
00:57:59Be mad at me, but not Liam.
00:58:01I just thought he was going to be different, you know?
00:58:04Like, for once, I was not going to come second to work.
00:58:10Hey, Nicola, is that how you feel?
00:58:13Yes.
00:58:15How am I supposed to feel?
00:58:17You never took time off.
00:58:19You never spent any time with me.
00:58:21It's like,
00:58:24after mom died, you just, you cared about work,
00:58:30and that was it.
00:58:34You know, and then when I found out
00:58:35that you actually came on this trip,
00:58:37I was,
00:58:38I was so excited.
00:58:42Like, we were going to spend Christmas as a family.
00:58:45It turns out it was just a business trip.
00:58:53We don't even know what family is.
00:58:55Okay, I'm going to,
00:59:08I'm going,
00:59:10I'm going to be upstairs if you,
00:59:12if you need me, all right?
00:59:14Mm-hmm.
00:59:15You should know something.
00:59:24These are possibly the best,
00:59:27most delicious cupcakes I've ever had.
00:59:29I'm going to be upstairs.
00:59:59One cup of chocolate, please.
01:00:12Okay.
01:00:12Well, I hope you ordered our famous hot chocolate.
01:00:33I did.
01:00:35My girlfriend recommended it.
01:00:37Smart woman.
01:00:38Mind if I take a load off?
01:00:40Not at all.
01:00:41Thanks.
01:00:43So,
01:00:43you're the young man who brought two families to the hacienda.
01:00:49One and only.
01:00:51Yeah.
01:00:51And just where is that girlfriend this morning?
01:00:57Well,
01:00:58I had planned on asking her to marry me,
01:01:02but it's almost Christmas and we're not speaking,
01:01:04so what does that tell you?
01:01:07That tells me that someone forgot the real meaning of Christmas.
01:01:10This trip was supposed to bring us closer together.
01:01:16I've never felt further apart.
01:01:18It was just a misunderstanding.
01:01:20She heard part of the conversation and just jumped to conclusions.
01:01:23How did you...
01:01:27You should try talking to her.
01:01:30I tried.
01:01:32Well, try again.
01:01:35You make it sound so easy.
01:01:36No,
01:01:37I get it.
01:01:38You know,
01:01:39things didn't work out the way you thought they would.
01:01:42Well,
01:01:43maybe the two families aren't blending quite as easily as expected,
01:01:47but

01:02:05Thanks for the chat.
01:02:05And if you ever need anything,
01:02:08I'm always around.
01:02:11And Liam,
01:02:12I wouldn't worry about it.
01:02:13Things will work out.
01:02:15They always do.
01:02:17Thanks.
01:02:26Do you think I should actually...
01:02:31Oh, yeah.
01:02:32How does she do that?
01:02:37How does she do that?
01:02:45Hey, hey.
01:02:47Hey.
01:02:47You're up early.
01:02:51I couldn't sleep.
01:02:52Me either.
01:02:55Did you talk to Liam?
01:02:56Not yet.
01:02:57Emma?
01:02:58You gather she's still upset?
01:03:00Yeah, well,
01:03:00maybe she's right,
01:03:01you know?
01:03:02I mean,
01:03:02I have dedicated an awful lot of time to my work.
01:03:06How do you do it?
01:03:07Do what?
01:03:08You know,
01:03:09you're so relaxed like that,
01:03:11you know,
01:03:11just throw caution to the wind.
01:03:14Hmm.
01:03:15Well,
01:03:15at our age,
01:03:16is there really any other way to live?
01:03:18Oh,
01:03:18boy,
01:03:20you and Emma must really get along.
01:03:22We do.
01:03:23I really hope it's not our last Christmas together.
01:03:26Yeah.
01:03:28You know,
01:03:28I've been thinking,
01:03:31Liam has done all of this for us.
01:03:34What if we do something for him?
01:03:35I mean,
01:03:35for both of them?
01:03:36You don't think it's too late?
01:03:38Well,
01:03:39in my line of work,
01:03:40you know what,
01:03:40I sense a deal maybe going south.
01:03:42I never run.
01:03:44I double down.
01:03:45What'd you have in mind?
01:03:47You know,
01:03:47it wouldn't be Christmas at the Hacienda
01:03:49without a good old-fashioned holiday hoedown.
01:03:52The music,
01:03:53they'll be dancing,
01:03:55great opportunity to bring everyone together.
01:03:57It's great.
01:03:58It's too bad they canceled it.
01:03:59What if we uncancelled it?
01:04:02Can we do that?
01:04:03I'll talk to the owner.
01:04:05It's Christmas Eve.
01:04:06That's not a lot of time to plan a party.
01:04:08Yeah,
01:04:08but luckily,
01:04:09we brought a bunch of help.
01:04:11True.
01:04:13In that case,
01:04:14I think we've got a hoedown to plan.
01:04:16Oh,
01:04:17okay.
01:04:18All right.
01:04:19Where do we start?
01:04:20Phone calls.

01:04:52Can't dance on,
01:04:53don't make a list

01:05:04All right,

01:05:07and Christmas Eve is traditionally
01:05:09the night of the famous
01:05:10Hacienda Holiday Hoedown.
01:05:12I thought they weren't having it this year.
01:05:14Well,
01:05:14they weren't until I talked them into having it anyway.
01:05:18What do you mean hold it anyway?
01:05:20It means that if they won't do it,
01:05:22then we will.
01:05:23But Christmas Eve is tonight.
01:05:26That's right,
01:05:27exactly.
01:05:27And it is 11 o'clock.
01:05:30That gives us exactly eight hours

01:07:47Yeah,
01:07:48I'm aware that it's Christmas Eve.
01:07:52Hello?
01:07:54Well,
01:07:54what kind of events do you normally do?
01:07:58Bar mitzvahs.
01:08:00It's just that I don't think that a jazz quartet would be suited.
01:08:05Oh,
01:08:06can I help you?
01:08:22Sure.
01:08:23All around the world,
01:08:25wherever you call.

01:09:02Beechless again.
01:09:04Christmas brings us home.
01:09:06Yes!
01:09:07Look at that.
01:09:08Woo-hoo.
01:09:11Emma,
01:09:12look,
01:09:13I'm sorry about what happened,
01:09:15but I think it's important that...
01:09:18I think the important thing is that...
01:09:21Look,
01:09:21I think we need to just
01:09:23be honest with each other.
01:09:27Our relationship and our family
01:09:29should always come first.
01:09:31No,
01:09:31no,
01:09:32I think the important thing
01:09:33is that...
01:09:35Emma,
01:09:35look,
01:09:35I'm sorry about what happened,
01:09:36but you...
01:09:37I'm going to be more important.
01:09:38I'm sorry.
01:09:40You go first.
01:09:41No,
01:09:41you go.
01:09:43Emma,
01:09:44look,
01:09:44I'm sorry about what happened.
01:09:45Let's get out of the hallway.
01:09:50Good idea.
01:10:00Have a seat.
01:10:06Emma,
01:10:06I know I should have told you,
01:10:10but I honestly thought
01:10:12that there was a chance
01:10:13we could save the hotel.
01:10:15Look,
01:10:15I...
01:10:16I totally get it.
01:10:20Ever since my mother passed away,
01:10:22I...
01:10:22I always felt like
01:10:24I came second
01:10:25to my dad's business.
01:10:27I don't want you and I
01:10:28to be like that.
01:10:30It won't be.
01:10:31What is it?
01:10:42Looks like...
01:10:45an invitation.
01:10:48You are cordially invited
01:10:49to attend the grand farewell
01:10:51of the Hacienda Holiday Hoedown.
01:10:55Tonight it's open.
01:10:57I thought they said they canceled it.
01:10:59They did.
01:10:59I don't get it.
01:11:02P.S.
01:11:02Emma and Liam,
01:11:04we strongly encourage you
01:11:05to attend.
01:11:07Mom.
01:11:09Dad.
01:11:10No.
01:11:11We can't possibly
01:11:12say no to that.
01:11:14You should probably
01:11:15start getting ready.
01:11:17Wait.
01:11:19About us.
01:11:22Just depends.
01:11:25On what?
01:11:27How good your dancing skills are.
01:11:29What does one wear
01:11:32to a holiday hoedown anyway?
01:11:34Something you would wear
01:11:35for a night out on the town.
01:11:37I was thinking something
01:11:38with a little more color.
01:11:39Maybe a little Christmas flare.
01:11:41Oh.
01:11:43I think I have the perfect day.
01:11:44Yeah, I thought you might.
01:11:45This is it.
01:11:59Tonight's the night.
01:12:03Don't blow it.
01:12:06Again.
01:12:06Now gasher, now dance.
01:12:32Now Kranzer and Dixon.
01:12:34On Common.
01:12:35On Cupid.
01:12:36On Donner and Blitzel.
01:12:38I gotta say,
01:12:40you really know how to throw a park?
01:12:42Let me surprise you to know
01:12:44that I have been known
01:12:46to throw a few wingdings
01:12:47back in the day.
01:12:48Yeah.
01:12:49Oh.
01:12:49They're here.
01:12:50I didn't think you had it in him.
01:12:56Thanks to us.
01:12:59Let me drink.
01:13:00Sure.
01:13:01All right.
01:13:02All right, bye.
01:13:04Hey, John.
01:13:05Hello, Liam.
01:13:06Would you like one?
01:13:07Yeah, yeah.
01:13:08Did you guys really do all this?
01:13:09Well, it was William's idea.
01:13:12He thought Emma would enjoy it.
01:13:14Is it working?
01:13:15Yeah.
01:13:16Yeah, I mean, I'd say so.
01:13:17So, did you bring it?
01:13:21Yeah, yeah.
01:13:23Like that.
01:13:24Hey, don't be nervous.
01:13:26You've got this.
01:13:30What's in the oven?
01:13:32Antris view
01:13:33and a salted butterscotch snickerdoodle.
01:13:37Wow, this is amazing.
01:13:38I feel like I'm 10 again.
01:13:41Did you make all of these?
01:13:42Sure did.
01:13:43I would choose from this side
01:13:47because these over there,
01:13:49they're a little well done.
01:13:51You'll do it.
01:13:53I can't believe you guys did this.
01:13:56Thank your father and my sister.
01:13:59They did it all.
01:14:01They really do work well together, don't they?
01:14:04Yeah.
01:14:06But they're not the only ones.
01:14:11Yeah.
01:14:21Thank you very much.
01:14:23Yeah.
01:14:24Is everybody feeling good tonight?
01:14:28I said, is everybody feeling good tonight?
01:14:31All right, well, we've got a slow one
01:14:36we're going to play now.
01:14:37There's any couples out there in the audience, so...
01:14:40Do you want to dance?
01:14:52It's all right, yes.
01:14:57It's all right.
01:15:02Oh my God.
01:15:32I'm so excited.
01:15:36What?
01:15:37All right.
01:15:40Yeah.
01:15:42What?
01:15:43What is it?
01:15:48Oh, just a little Christmas surprise.
01:15:52Okay.
01:15:55Hey, everyone.
01:15:56A man, Liam, in the back wants to say something.
01:16:03Go for it.
01:16:07All right.
01:16:08First of all, I want to thank the Howard and O'Brien families for putting this party together,
01:16:12huh?
01:16:12Let's give them a round of applause.
01:16:15Look at our nephew.
01:16:17So handsome.
01:16:19Woo-hoo!
01:16:22Emma, would you mind joining me up here for a moment?
01:16:33You know, when I had the idea to bring everybody here, all I could think about was giving my
01:16:39girlfriend one last Christmas at this wonderful place.
01:16:42And, uh, now that I've experienced it myself, I can see just how special this place is.
01:16:53Emma, I know we've had our ups and downs these past few days.
01:16:59But this morning, when I was walking around without you, I had plenty of time to think.
01:17:09And what I came to realize was that I never want to be without you.
01:17:14Neither do I.
01:17:20Emma, these past few years have been magical.
01:17:26I'm the happiest I've ever been.
01:17:27And it's all because of you.
01:17:31I mean, you've inspired me to see the world in a completely different way.
01:17:36And because of you, I'm a better person.
01:17:41The only thing that would make this Christmas more special would be if you agreed to spend
01:17:47the rest of your life with me.
01:17:52Emma Howard, will you marry me?
01:17:56Yes.
01:17:57It's the best Christmas ever.
01:18:22It's the best Christmas ever.
01:18:27It's the best Christmas ever.
01:18:31It's the best Christmas ever.
01:18:31It's the best Christmas ever.
01:18:34Congratulations.
01:18:37I'm so happy for you, too.
01:18:39Come here.
01:18:41Good guy.
01:18:43I'm so happy for you.
01:18:45Thank you, Ben.
01:18:47Look, I don't know about the timing on this, but, uh...
01:18:50I mean, I know how buried in my job I've been lately.
01:18:54And you might think that I've been using it as an excuse to hide.
01:18:58And you'd be right.
01:19:03And you, you tried extra hard to get me to come on this trip.
01:19:07And if I would have missed this Christmas, I would have missed the best time of my life.
01:19:13Because you know why? It made me realize what's really important.
01:19:16Do you really mean that?
01:19:17Oh, yes.
01:19:21Now, about the hotel.
01:19:25As of tomorrow, it will be transferred to our hotel division.
01:19:30What?
01:19:31Really?
01:19:31Where it will remain in operation for many years and Christmases to come under the supervision of our new junior vice president.
01:19:40Me?
01:19:41Who would I trust more?
01:19:43With the hotel or my daughter?
01:19:48Wow.
01:19:48You know what we're going to need, though?
01:19:49We're going to need a top-notch PR manager.
01:19:54You know, someone, you know, who can really let everyone know out there about our exciting new resort.
01:19:59If you know anybody like that, please let me know.
01:20:01Yeah, you know, I might have a few people in mind.
01:20:04Right?
01:20:05All right, enough about business.
01:20:06We've got a hoedown to enjoy.
01:20:09All right, I love you guys.
01:20:10And congratulations.
01:20:12Did you know about this?
01:20:15Oh, I know Sherlock Emmy.
01:20:17What do you say?
01:20:19You want to help me run this place?
01:20:21Well, I couldn't let you run it by yourself, could I?
01:20:24Cool.
01:20:26But, what do we do about them?
01:20:35We're going to remember that they can be crazy.
01:20:38We're going to remember that they can be wonderful.
01:20:40And most importantly, we're going to remember to take some time for ourselves.
01:20:46Yeah.
01:20:51That's a good-looking girl.
01:20:52Hey, you guys.
01:20:55Hey.
01:20:55Oh, man.
01:20:56Appreciate it.
01:20:57Here's the business.
01:20:57I'll come here.
01:20:58Good job.
01:21:00We did it.
01:21:01Great.
01:21:02This will be all right.
01:21:03This will be all right.
01:21:03This will be all right.
01:21:05This will be all right.
01:21:06This will be all right.
01:21:07Well, Mr. O'Brien, your folio, sir.
01:21:25On behalf of the Hacienda de la Sierra, we look forward to seeing the two of you again very soon.
01:21:30Mom, you can count on it.
01:21:32Oh, I almost forgot you have a package.
01:21:34We do?
01:21:36Yes.
01:21:37Oh, actually, it's for you.
01:21:40Merry Christmas.
01:21:41Okay.
01:21:43Well, Sherlock, Emmy, what do you think it is?
01:21:46To Emma, here's a little piece of this place to take with you when you leave.
01:21:52Nicole?
01:21:52Mm-hmm.
01:21:56Let's see.
01:21:58Awesome.
01:21:59Oh, wow.
01:22:00Look at that.
01:22:02That's perfect.
01:22:03Can you do me a big favor?
01:22:06Anything.
01:22:07Can you please tell her thank you so much?
01:22:11Who?
01:22:12Nicole.
01:22:13She's the employee that left us here for me.
01:22:16Well, I don't know who left that, but we have no one who works here by that name.
01:22:20Oh, yeah.
01:22:20Yeah.
01:22:20She's got dark hair, works behind the desk, been here forever.
01:22:24Nicole Ludlow?
01:22:26The founder?
01:22:27Yes, that's her.
01:22:30That's impossible.
01:22:31She died 30 years ago.
01:22:42You don't think that...
01:22:51No.
01:22:53No.
01:22:53No.
01:22:55What is it?
01:23:23I saw someone.
01:23:24What?
01:23:26It's nothing.
01:23:27Come on, let's go.
