00:01:59I'm calling from Saint-Pierre Hospital in Paris. Is this Leo Monroe?
00:02:03Yes, this is Leo.
00:02:04This is regarding Henry Fontaine. You've been named as his emergency contact.
00:02:10Yes. Is Henry okay?
00:02:12Uh, yes. There has been an incident, but he's stable.
00:02:16Um, okay, um, just, please, please, uh, please tell Henry I'll be on the first flight to Paris.
00:02:23Yes, Mr. Monroe. I will tell him.
00:02:25I'll see you. Au revoir.
00:02:30Great show, Leo.
00:02:31Thanks, I'll see you in the next one.
00:02:32Hey, hey!
00:02:50Hey, hey, hey!
00:02:50When there's Santa in his sleigh
00:02:53There's no room for work just plain
00:02:56Merry Christmas!
00:02:57How many years are so let me say
00:03:02All you need is a Christmas day
00:03:04Mom and Dad.
00:03:06Merry Christmas!
00:03:06Merry Christmas!
00:03:08Thank you!
00:03:09Merry Christmas!
00:03:12Bye!
00:03:13Thank you for a toy donation!
00:03:15Oh, hey!
00:03:17Cece, this is festive.
00:03:19Your shop looks amazing.
00:03:21Thanks.
00:03:21I love my job.
00:03:23And it's fun to have an opportunity
00:03:25to give back to the community.
00:03:27Yes, it is.
00:03:28And here's my contribution.
00:03:29What do we have here?
00:03:31I've got books and arts and crafts kits
00:03:33and sudoku puzzles.
00:03:35How very functional and educational.
00:03:37These are fun toys.
00:03:39Hey, what did you do, Tony?
00:03:41Oh, these little squeezy animals.
00:03:43Their eyes pop when you squish them.
00:03:45They're both funny and great for stress reduction.
00:03:47Here, I got one for you.
00:03:49I am not stressed.
00:03:50You're an overworked accountant
00:03:51with no outside activities.
00:03:53I have my dance.
00:03:54Only because I gifted you into taking lessons.
00:03:56And I am forever grateful.
00:03:58But just so you know,
00:03:59social dance lessons don't qualify as a social life.
00:04:02Look, I know the way your last relationship ended
00:04:05really shook your confidence,
00:04:07but it's time to get back out there.
00:04:09Okay, I will.
00:04:10When the right situation presents itself.
00:04:12Hi.
00:04:13Hi.
00:04:13Hi.
00:04:15Merry Christmas.
00:04:16Merry Christmas.
00:04:17You have to be proactive.
00:04:19It's Christmas time in the city.
00:04:21Doesn't your dance school hold those holiday jingle single mingles?
00:04:24Okay.
00:04:25They're called mixers.
00:04:27And, you know,
00:04:28you don't have to be single to go to them.
00:04:30Anyway, all I'm saying is,
00:04:31are you really happy with the way things are?
00:04:32Things are fine.
00:04:34Yeah, but are you living your dream life?
00:04:37I think you're stuck.
00:04:43Maybe you're right.
00:05:01How could you miss that move?
00:05:03It's no use playing the game if your head's not in it.
00:05:06Sorry.
00:05:07Just a little distracted.
00:05:10Your upcoming trip to New York?
00:05:12Maybe.
00:05:13You worried about running into Giselle?
00:05:15Hmm.
00:05:16That dance world is a small one.
00:05:18And it's a tough transition
00:05:20to solve in a dance partnership.
00:05:22Yeah.
00:05:23Well, since I didn't invite her to dance with me
00:05:24at last year's Christmas gala,
00:05:26she still won't even speak to me.
00:05:28So you have closure.
00:05:30That is a positive way to look at it.
00:05:33Here.
00:05:33Leave me there.
00:05:34No, I got it.
00:05:43I've been thinking.
00:05:45I would like to choreograph a piece for you
00:05:48to compete in the Paris Yuletide Pro-Am.
00:05:51Henry, that is a huge honor.
00:05:59And you know I would do anything for you.
00:06:02I mean, you're responsible for my entire dance career,
00:06:04but I've retired from competition.
00:06:08Leo, I don't know what the future holds for me,
00:06:15but if this should be the last piece I choreograph,
00:06:19I want you to be the one performing it.
00:06:23You're not going anywhere.
00:06:24Okay.
00:06:25But I still want you to dance it.
00:06:27I don't even have a dance partner.
00:06:29So maybe it's time to start looking.
00:06:30Hey, Steve.
00:06:41Hi, Emma.
00:06:42Oh, Steve.
00:06:44All right.
00:06:47Listen, I found a small mistake
00:06:49on the personal deductions in the Harrison account,
00:06:51so I just emailed you an updated file.
00:06:53Oh, thank you so much.
00:06:55You really saved me on that one.
00:06:56Yeah, sure.
00:06:57Happens to the best of us,
00:06:58especially with the hours we're pulling over here.
00:07:00I don't know about you, but I'm fried.
00:07:02I hear you.
00:07:07Okay, well, I'm headed out to grab a bite to eat.
00:07:09You want anything?
00:07:10No, thank you.
00:07:11My wife made me a maple ham sandwich
00:07:13and a homemade gingerbread cookie.
00:07:14Oh.
00:07:15My daughter's into her sticker face.
00:07:18That is adorable.
00:07:20That sounds delicious.
00:07:21So, you have any plans this Christmas?
00:07:23Are you going to take the family on a vacation, or...?
00:07:25Yep.
00:07:26Poconos.
00:07:26Kids are learning how to ski.
00:07:28Sounds fun.
00:07:29You heading home for Christmas?
00:07:30Uh, no.
00:07:30My parents are going on a couple ski trips,
00:07:32so I'm going to stay in the city and work,
00:07:34but I might go see the Nutcracker.
00:07:35Can't go wrong with that one.
00:07:36Yeah.
00:07:37Well, anyway, see you later.
00:07:45Whoa, whoa.
00:07:46You don't want to step in that.
00:07:47Oh.
00:07:47It's a...
00:07:48Uh, thank you.
00:07:50Yeah.
00:07:50But I wasn't planning on stepping in it.
00:07:51Right.
00:07:52My mistake.
00:07:52Oh, man.
00:07:54Oh, yep.
00:07:56Guess you can't save everyone.
00:07:57No, you can't.
00:08:03Whoa.
00:08:04I got it.
00:08:05I got it.
00:08:05Okay.
00:08:06All right.
00:08:06Just look at you.
00:08:07You're going down there for a second.
00:08:08No, actually, I have pretty good balance.
00:08:09Yeah, me too.
00:08:10Whoa, whoa.
00:08:11Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:08:12Where are you going?
00:08:13Okay, I got you.
00:08:14Um.
00:08:14Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
00:08:19Oh.
00:08:21Wow.
00:08:21It's a good thing we bumped into each other.
00:08:23No telling how we would have navigated that crossing on our own.
00:08:26Yeah.
00:08:27Guess we'll never know.
00:08:30That's a nice tree.
00:08:31Thanks.
00:08:32I got it to brighten up my office break room.
00:08:34Ah.
00:08:35I'm the accountant.
00:08:36Oh, right.
00:08:37Well, that tree ought to help, then.
00:08:41Have we met?
00:08:44I don't think so.
00:08:45Okay.
00:08:46Well, uh, Merry Christmas.
00:08:48Merry Christmas.
00:08:57It's festive, Emma.
00:08:58Thanks.
00:08:58Thanks.
00:09:05You all right?
00:09:14Company's doing 5% cutbacks.
00:09:16Dan just gave me two weeks notice.
00:09:18What?
00:09:20Steve, I'm so sorry.
00:09:22They said it's just temporary while they restructure.
00:09:24Why you, of all people?
00:09:26It's okay.
00:09:27I'm sure it's going by tenure.
00:09:29You've been working here a lot longer than I have, so.
00:09:31Still.
00:09:32Well, I just got to work out how I'm going to tell my family.
00:09:40I'll be right back.
00:09:45Dan?
00:09:45You're asking me to let you go and keep Steve on?
00:09:50He has a wife and kids.
00:09:52They're going skiing for Christmas.
00:09:54Listen, I've been thinking about making a change anyway,
00:09:57and then this situation just sort of presented itself.
00:10:00Yeah, but giving up your job.
00:10:02Sometimes God's plan for us is just different than what we expect.
00:10:08We will hate to lose you.
00:10:10Thank you, Dan.
00:10:13You're absolutely sure about this?
00:10:17I am.
00:10:22You've been fired?
00:10:23You think you'd have some sort of priority standing as the most dedicated person there.
00:10:28Yeah, well, I sort of offered my job to my co-worker, Steve.
00:10:31What?
00:10:31He needed it more than I do.
00:10:33You said I was stuck.
00:10:34Yeah, I didn't mean to go volunteering for unemployment.
00:10:37Here, I got this.
00:10:38It's the least I can do.
00:10:41Thanks.
00:10:42Merry Christmas.
00:10:43Merry Christmas.
00:10:43Listen, I do have some money saved up, you know.
00:10:47I'm not completely irresponsible.
00:10:48Really?
00:10:50Okay, maybe it was a little bit impulsive, but what you said the other night got me thinking.
00:10:53I have to be careful about giving you advice.
00:10:55Seriously.
00:10:56I mean, what if there's a different life out there just waiting for me,
00:10:59and I've just been stuck on the wrong path?
00:11:02It just feels like there's got to be something more.
00:11:05It's actually pretty exciting.
00:11:07Who knows what adventure awaits out there.
00:11:09Exactly.
00:11:10So, it's Friday night.
00:11:12We can do whatever you want.
00:11:14What do you want to do?
00:11:15Dig deep.
00:11:23This place is great.
00:11:25Yeah.
00:11:26So, now what?
00:11:28Do we walk around and work the room?
00:11:30I don't know.
00:11:30This is why I take group classes that are structured in a specific format.
00:11:33Why does everything have to be so complicated?
00:11:37Oh, I know that guy.
00:11:38He works at the bean roaster.
00:11:40Hi.
00:11:41Remember me?
00:11:43Decaf, holiday, mocha?
00:11:44Yeah.
00:11:45Care to dance?
00:11:46Sure.
00:11:48Now it's your turn.
00:11:50Come on.
00:11:52Cha-cha.
00:11:58I'm so sorry.
00:12:00It's my fault.
00:12:00Actually, it's just a little easier in these glass cups, right?
00:12:05Okay.
00:12:08Hello, again.
00:12:09Hi.
00:12:11You know, I just realized where I know you're from.
00:12:13You're Leo Monroe.
00:12:14Have been my entire life.
00:12:16Are you always this sassy?
00:12:18Am I sassy?
00:12:18Yes.
00:12:19Oh, okay.
00:12:21What was your name?
00:12:22Oh, I'm Emma Harris.
00:12:23Oh.
00:12:24There you go.
00:12:25Nice to meet you.
00:12:26You know, I've seen you perform.
00:12:29Oh, yeah?
00:12:30Yeah.
00:12:30Any thoughts?
00:12:31Well, I'll give you these little brush-up on your footwork.
00:12:34Oh.
00:12:34Oh, I'm just kidding.
00:12:35No, you were brilliant.
00:12:37Leo, do you have a minute to meet Sophia, the dancer I spoke to you about?
00:12:40Yeah, of course.
00:12:42Excuse me.
00:12:42Sure.
00:12:44Shall we?
00:12:44Hey.
00:12:59That was so much fun.
00:13:00So, do you know who you're just talking to?
00:13:02Leo Monroe?
00:13:03Yes.
00:13:03The dreamy guy we saw in the Christmas gala last year.
00:13:06Why didn't you dance with him?
00:13:07We didn't ask.
00:13:09Well, anyway, I just found out he's looking for a new dance partner for the Yuletide Pro-Am competition.
00:13:15What happened to the girl we saw him dancing with last year?
00:13:17Oh, that was just a one-time thing.
00:13:18He had a different partner, but they aren't together anymore.
00:13:21How do you know all this?
00:13:23I guess ballroom dancers drink a lot of coffee.
00:13:27That girl must be one of Leo's audition candidates.
00:13:29Oh, she is beautiful.
00:13:33Nobody's ever going to ask you to dance with that eggnog in your hand.
00:13:36Okay, fine.
00:13:37I'll put it down.
00:13:38I'll be right back.
00:13:40Oh, thank you so much.
00:13:41You're a lovely dance.
00:13:43Hey, Angelo.
00:13:45So, how is Sophia?
00:13:47Well, she's all about technique.
00:13:49In a good way.
00:13:51In a more of an inflexible way.
00:13:54You didn't respond to Vivian.
00:13:56Tanya isn't available over Christmas.
00:13:58Sandra was too pushy, and now Sophia is too inflexible.
00:14:02What can I say?
00:14:03I'm out of suggestions, Leo, and you're out of time.
00:14:06You haven't auditioned Emma.
00:14:09Sorry to eavesdrop.
00:14:10It's just, Emma's an incredible dancer and would love to compete with you.
00:14:14And she's free for the holidays.
00:14:18Hi.
00:14:18All right, Emma.
00:14:21Woo!
00:14:23Let's go.
00:14:24What did you do?
00:14:26Oh, they switched music styles.
00:14:27I wasn't quite ready.
00:14:29I...
00:14:29This would be easier if you don't talk.
00:14:30That way you can hear the music.
00:14:31Right.
00:14:32It's just...
00:14:32I thought it was going to be another waltz, but it's a cha-cha.
00:14:35Yes.
00:14:36I'll stop speaking now.
00:14:37You ready?
00:14:38Here we go.
00:14:39Get your arm up.
00:14:51That's my line.
00:14:51Now you're talking.
00:14:53I'm the one auditioning you.
00:14:54What?
00:14:54What?
00:15:05Ow!
00:15:06Sorry.
00:15:07She's just warming up.
00:15:31Thank you for the dance.
00:15:32Sure.
00:15:33Sure.
00:15:36Okay, what just happened?
00:15:42It's called magic.
00:15:43You're welcome, by the way.
00:15:45Well, that was interesting.
00:15:47It was, actually.
00:15:48Yes, we have liftoff.
00:15:52You told Leo Monroe I want to compete with him?
00:15:54Don't you?
00:15:55Well, you, that would be amazing, but I'm nowhere near his league.
00:15:58That's the whole idea of pro-am.
00:16:00He's the pro.
00:16:01You're the am.
00:16:03Hi.
00:16:04I didn't mean to sneak up on you like that.
00:16:08So, what do you think?
00:16:09You want to give this a proper tryout?
00:16:11I have to be honest.
00:16:13I really don't have much dance competition experience, like any.
00:16:17That doesn't matter.
00:16:18I really enjoy your natural ability.
00:16:21The thing is, we'd have a lot of catching up to do.
00:16:24It's long rehearsal hours.
00:16:26No problem there.
00:16:27I am the overtime queen.
00:16:28Henry Fontaine is choreographing.
00:16:30He is a perfectionist.
00:16:31Henry Fontaine, the dance legend?
00:16:33Yes.
00:16:35Wow.
00:16:37Um.
00:16:38Are you even available to rehearse over the holidays?
00:16:40Yeah, I have no attachments, and I am completely free and available.
00:16:44Yeah.
00:16:45All right.
00:16:46Well, I'd love to give this a proper audition tomorrow.
00:16:49Okay.
00:16:49If that goes well, this just might work out.
00:16:52Okay.
00:16:53Oh, your passport is up to date, right?
00:16:55Yes.
00:16:56Okay.
00:16:57Where would I be going?
00:16:58Paris.
00:17:00I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:17Thank you for picking me up at the airport.
00:17:20You got it.
00:17:22Look at that.
00:17:23It's so much bigger than the one in Washington Square.
00:17:26Pretty impressive, huh?
00:17:27Yes.
00:17:28But you're not looking.
00:17:30First time in Paris?
00:17:31First time anywhere.
00:17:33You've ever traveled?
00:17:35Oh, yeah.
00:17:36Just locally.
00:17:37Catskills, Coney Islands.
00:17:41That clock right there is the oldest clock in all of France.
00:17:45Wow.
00:17:45Yeah.
00:17:46And right there is the Pont Neuf, which is the oldest standard bridge in Paris.
00:17:50Oh.
00:17:50There's the Paris Opera House.
00:17:53Oh, you know it?
00:17:53Of course.
00:17:54The anima of the opera lives in there.
00:17:58And there's the Louvre.
00:17:59Oh, it's actually in the Louvre.
00:18:00Oh, is it?
00:18:01Yeah.
00:18:02Oh, I've been saying it wrong my whole life.
00:18:04It happens.
00:18:04Okay, well, this is you.
00:18:19I'll be staying with Henry right over the bridge there.
00:18:22I mean, come on.
00:18:25Can a hotel possibly get more picturesque than this?
00:18:28It's even better than I expected.
00:18:29What?
00:18:33Seeing Paris through your eyes makes me realize I've been missing a lot.
00:18:38Oh, is that taxi free?
00:18:39Yes, it's all yours.
00:18:40Oh, great.
00:18:41Are you American?
00:18:42Yes, it's my first time in Paris.
00:18:44Well, you two are in for a treat.
00:18:45Paris is the most romantic city in the world.
00:18:48Yes, it is.
00:18:49We're just colleagues, though, so...
00:18:51Oh, I just assumed you were a couple.
00:18:53You look so nice together.
00:18:55Well, have fun.
00:18:56You'll love the hotel.
00:18:56It's fabulous.
00:18:57Au revoir.
00:18:58Au revoir.
00:18:59Let's get you checked in.
00:19:00Okay.
00:19:13Ah, bonsoir.
00:19:14Bonsoir.
00:19:15Welcome to Hotel Ducan.
00:19:17Hi.
00:19:18Reservation for Emma Harris.
00:19:19Yes, sir.
00:19:19Of course.
00:19:20May I have your passport, please?
00:19:21Oh, yes.
00:19:22Of course.
00:19:25Merci.
00:19:26We have a beautiful corner room with a nice view.
00:19:30Sounds perfect.
00:19:31Pierre.
00:19:32Well, I'll leave you to get settled in.
00:19:34I thought maybe I'd swing by tomorrow morning before rehearsal.
00:19:36We can grab a cup of coffee and get you up to speed.
00:19:39Sounds great.
00:19:408.30?
00:19:41Mm-hmm.
00:19:41Okay.
00:19:42Have a great night.
00:19:43You too.
00:19:45Bonsoir.
00:19:47Wow.
00:19:51Thank you so much.
00:19:52Oh, that's okay.
00:19:54I got it from here.
00:19:55Thank you, Bonsoir.
00:19:59Oh, my God.
00:20:29Oh, my God.
00:20:59Did you sleep?
00:20:59I tried.
00:21:00I think I'm just anxious about meeting Henry, you know?
00:21:02I hope I can live up to his expectations.
00:21:04I wouldn't put too much pressure on yourself.
00:21:06I'm still trying to live up to his expectations.
00:21:08Would you like to order?
00:21:11Oh, yes.
00:21:11Café au lait and a croissant, please.
00:21:13Un café pour moi.
00:21:15Simple.
00:21:16All right.
00:21:16Merci.
00:21:16Merci.
00:21:17So I've been wanting to ask, how did you and Henry meet?
00:21:21He was a judge at one of my early competitions, and he saw me dance and offered me a scholarship to his school.
00:21:28Changed my life.
00:21:30Sounds like a special relationship.
00:21:31Henry's like a second father to me.
00:21:36And when he had his health scare, there's no idea to be there for him.
00:21:42Is that when you came to Paris?
00:21:44Yeah.
00:21:44I stepped in to help keep the school running, and thank goodness our prayers were answered, and he recovered.
00:21:51And then he asked me to compete in the Yuletide Pro-Am, and I said yes for him to keep his name relevant in the competitive scene.
00:22:01But it's been over a year since my last competition.
00:22:03Why did you stop?
00:22:04It's a conversation for another day.
00:22:12Ah.
00:22:14Merci.
00:22:16Café au lait.
00:22:17Yes.
00:22:18Merci.
00:22:20Monsieur, café.
00:22:22Perfect.
00:22:23Et des croissants.
00:22:24Yes, thank you.
00:22:26Et un peu de confiture.
00:22:27Voilà.
00:22:29Enjoy.
00:22:31So, you ready to go for that rehearsal schedule?
00:22:33Yes, please, just give me one second.
00:22:35I don't want to see for this moment.
00:22:39Yeah.
00:22:44If you have any questions, just fire away.
00:22:47Like, now.
00:22:47Go.
00:22:50Can I have a fight for your jam?
00:22:52Did you eat on the plane?
00:22:53Just wait until you see this street lit up at night.
00:23:04It's so beautiful.
00:23:05Ah, and this is it.
00:23:12Here we go.
00:23:16This is a good warm-up.
00:23:17Yeah, it's just ten more flights to go.
00:23:19What?
00:23:20Just kidding.
00:23:25Welcome to Fontaine Dance Studio.
00:23:29We're in the big room right over here.
00:23:31Miss Fella, I want to see you out.
00:23:34Yes!
00:23:36Beautiful.
00:23:38As you can see, there are some of the other teams working out here as well.
00:23:41Oh, okay.
00:23:42They look ridiculously good.
00:23:44They are.
00:23:46There's the guy from New York.
00:23:47Yes, that's Angelo.
00:23:48He coaches two of the Pro-Am teams.
00:23:50And you'll meet all the other contestants at the welcome party.
00:23:52Welcome party?
00:23:53Oh, yeah.
00:23:54They'll be sending out an invite to you.
00:23:55Oh.
00:23:56Bonjour.
00:23:57Nice.
00:23:58Stella.
00:23:59Stella.
00:24:00Thank you for that, Stella.
00:24:01All right, let's take five.
00:24:04Good morning.
00:24:06There's the man.
00:24:07Henry.
00:24:08Hello.
00:24:09Nice to see you.
00:24:10This is Robert.
00:24:11That's Stella.
00:24:12Hello.
00:24:12Hello.
00:24:12Hello, how are you?
00:24:14Nice to meet you.
00:24:15Good morning.
00:24:16Good morning, sir.
00:24:19Morning.
00:24:20Henry, this is Emma.
00:24:23Oh, it is a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Fontaine.
00:24:25Please.
00:24:25It's Henry.
00:24:26Of course.
00:24:27I'm really excited to be here.
00:24:29Leo says you have something special.
00:24:32So, you get changed and we'll start.
00:24:34Okay.
00:24:34Okay.
00:24:37Go easy on her.
00:24:44Straighten your leg.
00:24:47Same again.
00:24:48Straighter.
00:24:52Good.
00:24:53Good, good, good, good.
00:24:55We should make that turn more compact.
00:24:56Sorry.
00:24:57I don't know what's wrong with me today.
00:25:00Inhibitions will do you no favors in dance.
00:25:03I only want to hear confidence moving forward.
00:25:05Yes?
00:25:06Yes.
00:25:43Okay.
00:25:45So, you move well together, this is good.
00:25:49But it doesn't matter what steps I choreograph
00:25:52or how well you execute them if there is no spark.
00:25:56We finished there for today.
00:25:57Are you sure?
00:25:58I can keep going.
00:25:59We'll continue tomorrow.
00:26:01But more importantly, we have to fast-track your relationship
00:26:04as dance partners.
00:26:06The qualifier is coming up.
00:26:09Go out, spend some time together, get to know each other.
00:26:12Well, that is your homework for tonight.
00:26:15I should stay here and work on my bookkeeping.
00:26:24I know a great spot.
00:26:28Okay, well, that didn't go as planned with Henry.
00:26:30No, you have to understand,
00:26:31Peyton Mills is to be the best we can be, okay?
00:26:33We have to just trust his process.
00:26:35Okay, so how do we do this?
00:26:39We start with a walk.
00:26:41Okay.
00:26:42This church is so beautiful.
00:26:53Oh, right?
00:26:54It's called Saint-Cré-Pérens.
00:26:55Oh, I love all the details.
00:26:57It's amazing.
00:26:59And they have a nativity scene.
00:27:01I always love that about Christmas,
00:27:03opening up the nativity box and unwrapping each figurine.
00:27:06My parents used to always let me put baby Jesus in the crib.
00:27:10Well, Paris is known for its Christmas nativity scenes.
00:27:13And you can find all different types depending on the church.
00:27:15This one's wonderfully traditional.
00:27:17Le Medellin church has a beautiful contemporary version.
00:27:20I like that.
00:27:22Embracing the old and the new.
00:27:24Something for everyone.
00:27:26Sometimes people can be resistant to change.
00:27:28I just think of change as a way to move forward with your life.
00:27:33You sound like you're speaking from personal experience.
00:27:36Well, recently I did something that was a little out of character for me.
00:27:39I quit my job, which is a little confusing because I really like accounting.
00:27:44Wow.
00:27:45Well, you must have your reasons.
00:27:48I'm figuring them out as I go.
00:27:58They sound like angels.
00:28:00Yeah, they do.
00:28:09Are you hungry?
00:28:10I'm starving.
00:28:12Okay, there's a great restaurant right around the corner.
00:28:14It was Edith Piaf's Delivered Brasserie.
00:28:16And, uh, it's mine too.
00:28:19Good.
00:28:29Voilà pour vous.
00:28:31Je vous en prie.
00:28:32Wow.
00:28:33This cranberry stuffing looks so delicious.
00:28:36So, to the task at hand.
00:28:39Fast-tracking what we know about each other.
00:28:42This is so good.
00:28:43Do we need to pause?
00:28:45No, no.
00:28:47Go.
00:28:48Okay, okay.
00:28:49Rapid Fire.
00:28:50Favorite Christmas song?
00:28:52White Christmas.
00:28:53New Christmas.
00:28:54Ooh, so close.
00:28:55Christmas candy.
00:28:57Pepper the Brittle.
00:28:57Candy cane.
00:29:00Favorite Christmas meal?
00:29:02Fake ham.
00:29:02Stuffed turkey?
00:29:03No, absolutely not.
00:29:05Turkey is for Thanksgiving.
00:29:06Ham is for Christmas.
00:29:07It's not debatable.
00:29:08Fair, fair, fair.
00:29:09No, no, I'll give you that.
00:29:10I'll give you that.
00:29:12You do realize that so far we have nothing in common.
00:29:15Yes.
00:29:16Let's just look to Landry.
00:29:17Definitely not.
00:29:20Okay, final question.
00:29:22Mm-hmm.
00:29:23Favorite Christmas memory?
00:29:25Okay.
00:29:26It was last Christmas and I went to the theater and I remember the curtain rising and there
00:29:37was this gorgeous girl standing in a forest of evergreens with twinkling lights.
00:29:41A handsome prince.
00:29:42A handsome prince appeared and he was so graceful and self-assured.
00:29:49As the music swelled, he took her in his arms and they began to waltz.
00:29:56And I wanted to be that girl, the dance in the arms of someone like that.
00:30:07The prince on that stage was you.
00:30:10And that's a Christmas memory I will always cherish because you're the reason I started
00:30:16dancing.
00:30:25Wow.
00:30:28That's beautiful.
00:30:32Cheers.
00:30:33Cheers.
00:30:34Well, I can say that I am fabulously fit and happy.
00:30:42Thank you so much for that holiday feast.
00:30:44That was my pleasure.
00:30:46Um, listen, my hotel's back that way, so I guess I'll see you tomorrow.
00:30:50Well, where do you think you're going?
00:30:52We still have work to do.
00:30:53What?
00:30:55Thank you, Santa.
00:30:57All right, boys, we wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:30:59And G, let's do it.
00:31:00One, two, a one, two, three, four.
00:31:03Oh, we cannot let this opportunity go to waste.
00:31:06It is Christmas.
00:31:08Let's dance.
00:31:14Ha, ha.
00:31:15We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:31:19We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:31:22We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:31:25And a Happy New Year.
00:31:28We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:31:31We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:31:35We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:31:38And a Happy New Year.
00:31:41Good tidings we bring to you and your kin.
00:31:48Good tidings for Christmas.
00:31:51And a Happy New Year.
00:31:54And a Happy New Year.
00:32:05We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:32:08We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:32:12We wish you a Merry Christmas.
00:32:15And a happy, and a happy, and a happy New Year!
00:32:33Oh, look at that! Come on!
00:32:44We are not half bad.
00:32:45Hey, I'm just trying to keep up with you.
00:32:47Oh, you're doing just fine.
00:32:48Hotel Dokkan!
00:32:49See you later.
00:33:03Of course, mistletoe.
00:33:07Yeah, I didn't see that there before.
00:33:11I'll just, um, step aside then.
00:33:15Just to maintain a professional relationship.
00:33:18Good idea.
00:33:20Full disclosure, I have a strict policy to never date my dance partners.
00:33:26Smart.
00:33:27Keep things in their respective columns.
00:33:30Spoken like a true accountant.
00:33:32Well, that's me.
00:33:34That's you.
00:33:35Um, thank you for a lovely night.
00:33:39It was my pleasure.
00:33:45Good night.
00:33:46Good night.
00:34:02Good night.
00:34:03Good night.
00:34:23Hey, Emma.
00:34:51Hi. Oh, sorry. Did I wake you?
00:34:52No. What's going on?
00:34:54Nothing. I just got invited to this very swanky Christmas foray.
00:34:59Awesome.
00:35:00No, not awesome. I have nothing to wear.
00:35:02That's not true. I saw you pack your cute red dress.
00:35:06That dress is so boring.
00:35:08Listen, it's a Christmas party. Everybody's going to be dressed in sparkles, and I just...
00:35:12I want to be dazzling.
00:35:14Why do you sound different?
00:35:16I don't.
00:35:16Yes, you do.
00:35:18You never worry this much about what to wear.
00:35:20Okay.
00:35:22Fine.
00:35:23Look, last night, Henry sent Leo and I out on an assignment to develop some chemistry.
00:35:28Ooh.
00:35:29Professionally, as dance partners.
00:35:31But then, well, it just turned into this accidental romantic evening with fabulous French food and singing and dancing,
00:35:40and we ended up under the mistletoe.
00:35:43And?
00:35:44And nothing.
00:35:45He told me he wants to keep things professional.
00:35:48Are you falling for him?
00:35:51He made it very clear that he never dates his dance partners.
00:35:54That doesn't answer the question.
00:35:56Listen, I have to go to dance rehearsals, so I gotta go.
00:35:59Fine.
00:36:00Wear the red dress tonight with your highest heels.
00:36:03You'll be elegantly festive.
00:36:07Cece, thank you.
00:36:08Okay, now go get some sleep.
00:36:10Good idea.
00:36:10Night.
00:36:11Night.
00:36:11Night.
00:36:11I've never seen you.
00:36:38Merry Christmas.
00:36:52Merry Christmas.
00:36:53You look quite lovely tonight.
00:36:57Though I have to admit, I was actually debating the stilettos after rehearsal today, but I'm glad I went for it.
00:37:03There is our Emma.
00:37:05Oh, hi, Henry.
00:37:07Oh, what a party.
00:37:08Everyone looks so glamorous.
00:37:09These ballroom competitors know how to put on a show.
00:37:12Put on the jacket.
00:37:13Let's do it.
00:37:14They look all smiles now, but in the qualifying round, you will all be sharing the same floor.
00:37:20That sounds crowded.
00:37:21It is, and very competitive.
00:37:25Dancers will do everything they can, whatever it takes, to get in front of the judges.
00:37:29You can be run over, boxed in a corner.
00:37:31Oh, I'm happy I'll have Leo behind the wheel.
00:37:34Hello, excuse me, Mr. Fontaine.
00:37:36Can we please seal you for Dance Steps magazine?
00:37:38Of course.
00:37:39Thank you so much.
00:37:42You know, I meant to tell you, you're rocking that suit.
00:37:45Oh, this old thing?
00:37:46It stretches in case you want to have a little dance later.
00:37:50Unless you've had your fill of dance with me today.
00:37:52No, never.
00:37:55Come on.
00:37:56There's something you need to see.
00:37:58Okay.
00:37:58Okay.
00:37:59There it is.
00:38:11Wouldn't it be a dream to waltz under the Eiffel Tower?
00:38:13It's quite a romantic idea.
00:38:20I'll add it to my Christmas wish list.
00:38:22Champagne?
00:38:23Yes, sure.
00:38:24Thank you for this.
00:38:35I don't think Christmas could get any better.
00:38:37A glamorous party, the Eiffel Tower, and a glass of champagne with...
00:38:42Leo.
00:38:46Uh, I wasn't expecting to see you here.
00:38:51Hello, Giselle.
00:38:52You coaching a team?
00:38:54Um, no, I'm actually competing.
00:38:58This is my dance partner, Emma.
00:39:01Enchante.
00:39:02Uh, I'm Giselle.
00:39:03Oh, it's nice to meet you.
00:39:04I heard you moved to London.
00:39:07Yes.
00:39:08Yes, and I have a new partner.
00:39:10I'd introduce you, but I don't know where he went.
00:39:12Oh, well, I look forward to meeting him.
00:39:15Excuse me, Giselle, Leo, can we have a photo by the tree?
00:39:18Sure.
00:39:20Here.
00:39:20Oh.
00:39:22I'll be right back.
00:39:23Okay.
00:39:23Very nice.
00:39:33Very nice.
00:39:33Very nice.
00:39:33I see Giselle has made her entrance.
00:39:50She's a tough act to follow.
00:39:53Giselle was Leo's dance partner.
00:39:57They won the Yuletide Pro-Am, and their partnership ended soon after.
00:40:01They still look great together.
00:40:02But they are not good for each other.
00:40:04You and Leo will be much better.
00:40:07Just wait and see.
00:40:08Thanks.
00:40:09Thanks.
00:40:11That was impressive.
00:40:14I'm so sorry.
00:40:14That was such a surprise.
00:40:16No, no.
00:40:16The press seemed to love it.
00:40:17There he is.
00:40:18I've been looking for you.
00:40:19I've been looking for you.
00:40:21Leo, Emma, this is my partner, Paolo.
00:40:24Hi.
00:40:25Nice to meet you, Leo.
00:40:26Likewise.
00:40:27Emma, it's a pleasure.
00:40:30Paolo is a phenomenal dancer, so be ready for some stiff competition.
00:40:37Well, thanks for the warning.
00:40:39Well, I'll see you around.
00:40:41Should we have some photos?
00:40:42Yes.
00:40:43Giselle can be gracefully strategic.
00:40:49Don't let her get to you.
00:40:51Oh, she didn't get to me.
00:40:53Did she get to you?
00:41:04Good morning.
00:41:08Hi.
00:41:09Bonjour, mademoiselle.
00:41:10How are you?
00:41:11Uh, just trying to stay calm.
00:41:12Um, we have our big qualifier today, so fingers crossed we make it to the final round.
00:41:17Ah, it's all very exciting.
00:41:19Did you see the article about it in the paper?
00:41:21Oh, no.
00:41:22Voila.
00:41:31Bonjour, how's it going?
00:41:37For the walk, it's important to keep our shoulder down.
00:41:40Oh, it's not a bad photo.
00:41:43And there's a mention of your school, Henry.
00:41:45I'll see you on the dance floor.
00:41:51Can't wait.
00:41:54Why did they have to use that photo?
00:41:56Very hashing old news.
00:41:58You think Emma saw it?
00:42:00Hi.
00:42:01Good morning.
00:42:02Good morning.
00:42:02Hey.
00:42:03Uh, I'll go get dressed.
00:42:05Great.
00:42:08She saw it.
00:42:09Hey, you warmed up?
00:42:27Yep.
00:42:27Okay.
00:42:28Look, I'm sorry about that photo in the paper.
00:42:30I...
00:42:30Oh, no.
00:42:31No need to apologize.
00:42:32Let's just focus on making it through this round.
00:42:35Great idea.
00:42:36Okay.
00:42:36Okay.
00:42:37Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the new time...
00:42:40It's time.
00:42:41Yeah.
00:42:43Okay.
00:42:43Now, please welcome our international confederate.
00:42:47actors of America.
00:46:17Give me a moment.
00:46:26Congratulations.
00:46:28Congratulations on that.
00:46:29And let's give a big hand to all our families.
00:46:34Not a little dicey out there in the corner, don't you think?
00:46:36Really? I wasn't paying attention.
00:46:38Right.
00:46:39Well, I can't help it if your partner doesn't have enough experience to stay out of the way.
00:46:44But for you, I'll try to be more careful next time.
00:46:49Henry, use this.
00:46:53Bravo, you two. You made it to the final.
00:46:56Nearly.
00:46:57How about a little celebration at my place?
00:47:00Sounds great.
00:47:01Yeah, sounds fun. What can I bring?
00:47:02Your beautiful smile.
00:47:04Well, Emma and I will get changed, and we'll meet you there.
00:47:07I'll see you soon.
00:47:08Good work, both of you.
00:47:12Leo, thank you so much for taking care of me out there.
00:47:15Such an amazing experience.
00:47:16It was scary and exhilarating and wonderful, and I just, I'm never going to forget it.
00:47:22What? What is it?
00:47:23I'm just enjoying competing with you.
00:47:25Good.
00:47:27Shall we?
00:47:28Yes.
00:47:29Okay, what should we get Henry?
00:47:31Maybe, maybe flowers?
00:47:33I have the perfect idea.
00:47:35Okay.
00:47:35Come on.
00:47:36You know, I am starting to regret the idea of you talking me into a Christmas tree.
00:47:40What?
00:47:41Why would you even say that?
00:47:43This is the best idea ever.
00:47:45Try this for a time.
00:47:45Put it down right here.
00:47:46Okay, listen.
00:47:47You hold the door open, and I'll push.
00:47:49Got it.
00:47:53Okay.
00:47:53All right.
00:47:54All right.
00:47:55What?
00:47:56What happened to you holding the door open?
00:47:58All right, come on.
00:47:59We're dancers.
00:48:00We can do this.
00:48:01Five, six, seven, eight.
00:48:03Okay, here we go.
00:48:04Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:48:05Back up, back up, back up, back up, back up.
00:48:07Oh, ma'am.
00:48:08Oh, hi.
00:48:09Merry Christmas.
00:48:10There you go.
00:48:11Au revoir.
00:48:13Okay.
00:48:13Okay.
00:48:14Here we go.
00:48:15Oh, come on.
00:48:18I can't.
00:48:24Turn to the dance.
00:48:25Okay.
00:48:28What have you two done?
00:48:30We just got you a tree.
00:48:32That's wonderful.
00:48:34Put it over there, my window.
00:48:35Yes, yes, right there.
00:48:39To making the cut.
00:48:40Finals, here we come.
00:48:42Cheers.
00:48:42Cheers.
00:48:43Today may not have been perfect, but it meant the world to me.
00:48:50This was a big triumph for us all.
00:48:53Henry, it's your faith in us that has gotten us this far, honestly.
00:48:56I'm so grateful to be part of it.
00:48:58Working with both of you is just the most special Christmas gift ever.
00:49:03To go with this champagne, we have some wonderful charcuterie, cheese, and cranberry chutney.
00:49:09Oh.
00:49:10Can I help?
00:49:10No, no, no.
00:49:11You'll stay here with Leo and finish decorating that tree.
00:49:15Oh, now that I think of it, flowers would have been so much easier.
00:49:20But a Christmas tree is so much more festive.
00:49:23Henry, your hearing is remarkable.
00:49:25Yes.
00:49:26Just wish the rest of me was keeping up.
00:49:29How's he doing?
00:49:31He has his good days and bad days.
00:49:34Today was a good one.
00:49:36This whole competition has been the best thing for him.
00:49:38It's his opportunity to share his gift with the world.
00:49:42Hmm.
00:49:43Through us.
00:49:44Well, it's an honor.
00:49:45You know, I will trade you this woodland deer for that ballerina.
00:49:49And I want her to leap so high she reaches the top of the tree.
00:49:53How will you get her up there?
00:49:54Well, I just happen to have a wonderfully strong dance partner to help me.
00:50:02Oh.
00:50:03Mm-hmm.
00:50:05Woo!
00:50:06Woo!
00:50:15Off the bread!
00:50:17Okay.
00:50:19Henry.
00:50:19Oh, Henry.
00:50:24Let me help you with that.
00:50:26Oh, thank you.
00:50:27What's all the commotion here?
00:50:28Oh, just me.
00:50:30Oh, this is so lovely.
00:50:32I'm so excited for doing this.
00:50:34My pleasure.
00:50:35You know, I'm really not trying to mangle the spread.
00:50:37I'm just, I'm better with a spreadsheet.
00:50:39Oh, Emma is a talented accountant.
00:50:41Are you?
00:50:42Wish I had to do with my books.
00:50:44I'm stuck with the mess my last bookkeeper left me.
00:50:48Why?
00:50:48What's the issue?
00:50:50Where do I start?
00:50:51Maybe by upgrading your 90s computer.
00:50:53I don't know.
00:50:54It's not that old.
00:50:55Oh, okay.
00:50:56Hear that sound?
00:50:56I like it.
00:51:02Henry, why don't I take a look at your accounting after rehearsal tomorrow?
00:51:05Oh, I wouldn't want to impose on you.
00:51:07Oh, no.
00:51:07It'd be my pleasure.
00:51:08Oh, thank you, Emma.
00:51:09Of course.
00:51:10Oh.
00:51:11Get your seat.
00:51:13Buckle up.
00:51:15Oh, there you see.
00:51:16Merry Christmas.
00:51:19Merry Christmas.
00:51:20Bon Appetit.
00:51:21Ah.
00:51:21Right away, I see some billing issues and more than a few outstanding accounts that owe
00:51:32you money.
00:51:33Do you mind if I review this back at my hotel?
00:51:35You're an angel.
00:51:37When did you find this brilliant girl?
00:51:38Oh, I actually saved her from a treacherous Manhattan pothole.
00:51:41Hey, wait a minute.
00:51:41I saved you.
00:51:42I don't recall it that way.
00:51:44Oh, yeah.
00:51:44You were going down.
00:51:45Is that the story you're telling yourself?
00:51:46Oh, I'd forget I asked.
00:51:48That's enough for tonight.
00:51:49It's Christmas in Paris.
00:51:51Leo, take Emma out somewhere wonderful.
00:51:53You got it, coach.
00:51:55Thank you so much for this, Emma.
00:51:57Of course.
00:51:59Rehearsals went well today.
00:52:00Agreed.
00:52:00I think we're in really good shape.
00:52:02Me too.
00:52:03So, we start early tomorrow morning.
00:52:05We finish up the end section.
00:52:06Now, you two, go out.
00:52:08Enjoy yourselves.
00:52:09Yes, sir.
00:52:16Oh, thank you so much.
00:52:29That was absolutely wonderful.
00:52:31I mean, you know, this place is famous for its desserts.
00:52:33Oh, well, we can't skip that.
00:52:35Okay, what should we get?
00:52:36Well, something special.
00:52:37And it only happens this time of year.
00:52:40Tres desserts and novelas, s'il vous plaît.
00:52:42Absolument, monsieur.
00:52:43Yes, sir.
00:52:43I have no idea what that means, but it sounds absolutely brilliant.
00:52:47It is.
00:52:47It translates to the 13 desserts of Christmas.
00:52:50Thirteen?
00:52:50Don't worry.
00:52:51It's not as big as it sounds.
00:52:53And we can split it.
00:52:54Yeah, we better.
00:52:57Um, listen, I really just want to thank you for helping Henry out.
00:53:02I know he really appreciated it.
00:53:05So did I.
00:53:07It was nothing.
00:53:08So, um, what are your plans, you know, going forward?
00:53:16Uh, I guess I'll find something different to do.
00:53:21You know, I'll go somewhere where I can be helpful and make people happy.
00:53:25How do you do that?
00:53:28Do what?
00:53:29You just smile no matter what life throws at you.
00:53:32I mean, most people would be terrified.
00:53:34Come on, how can I not smile?
00:53:36You and Henry have been so kind to me.
00:53:38I can't believe I'm part of something so beautiful and creative and...
00:53:42Yes, this was a very good idea.
00:53:47Wow.
00:53:48Wow.
00:53:49For you.
00:53:51Merci.
00:53:52Bon appétit.
00:53:55Oh, God.
00:53:57Yeah, right?
00:53:59Yeah.
00:54:01I never want to leave.
00:54:02You're literally surrounded by astonishing views.
00:54:14How many of these does Paris have?
00:54:16I don't know.
00:54:16I'm still counting.
00:54:18I wonder how long it would take to see them all.
00:54:20It'd be fun to find out.
00:54:23Oh, look at that one.
00:54:25Leo, can I ask you something?
00:54:28Yeah, of course.
00:54:28Of all the dancers out there, why did you pick me?
00:54:35When I came to Paris to help Henry with the school,
00:54:39I had retired for competition, but the truth is,
00:54:43you know, somewhere along the way, I'd lost my joy of dance.
00:54:48And with that, I lost a big part of who I am.
00:54:51But when I came to New York
00:54:54and saw your sparkling eyes
00:54:59as they lit up the dance floor,
00:55:01I realized that was what was missing for me.
00:55:08It's why I picked you.
00:55:09Because of your pure joy.
00:55:14I hope to find that again.
00:55:15I'm sorry.
00:55:34I'm sorry that that wasn't supposed to happen.
00:55:37I...
00:55:37No, you're right.
00:55:38I...
00:55:39I leak in there for a second, too.
00:55:43Yeah.
00:55:44Yeah.
00:55:45We should just...
00:55:47Take a step back for a second.
00:55:50Yeah, of course.
00:55:52Yeah, I've just...
00:55:53I've seen a lot of dance partnerships
00:55:55get complicated and, you know,
00:55:58it never really works out.
00:55:59Yeah, I understand.
00:56:00Okay.
00:56:01Um...
00:56:01It's getting cold.
00:56:05Yeah.
00:56:06Yeah, it is.
00:56:09Listen, my hotel is just back that way,
00:56:11and you should probably head back to Henry's
00:56:13before the snow picks up.
00:56:14I can walk you back.
00:56:15It's okay.
00:56:17It's just around the corner.
00:56:20Okay.
00:56:22Uh-huh.
00:56:23I'll see you tomorrow?
00:56:24Yeah.
00:56:25Yeah, bright and early.
00:56:29Good night.
00:56:31Night.
00:56:35Leo.
00:56:35Leo.
00:56:35If you want, we can forget this ever happened.
00:56:43It might be best.
00:56:44It might be best.
00:56:44Oh, Cece.
00:56:53Oh, Cece.
00:57:07Something happened.
00:57:10What does that mean?
00:57:11What does that mean?
00:57:14Oh.
00:57:18Is everything all right?
00:57:20I did something careless.
00:57:23Leo and I took a turn.
00:57:25Why are you being so cryptic?
00:57:28All right.
00:57:29We kissed.
00:57:30You kissed her?
00:57:31Well, we kissed each other.
00:57:33Oh.
00:57:34We were on this romantic bridge,
00:57:36and the lights were sparkling,
00:57:38and snow started falling,
00:57:39and it was all so dreamy.
00:57:41No, it just happened.
00:57:43I...
00:57:43It's not the end of the world.
00:57:45Well, it definitely changes things.
00:57:47How did you leave things with her?
00:57:50We're gonna pretend it never happened.
00:57:51Why?
00:57:52Oh, I just don't want it to cloud
00:57:54our professional relationship.
00:57:57Leo, I don't want to tell you
00:57:58how to rule your heart.
00:58:01What?
00:58:02But I think it's time
00:58:03you stop looking backwards
00:58:05and start looking towards your future.
00:58:12If you have feelings for him,
00:58:13why would you shut them down?
00:58:15I'm not so sure he has
00:58:16the same feelings about me.
00:58:20All right.
00:58:21Let's try it from the top.
00:58:24All right.
00:58:26One, and two, and three, and four,
00:58:30and five, and five, and five, and five, and five.
00:58:32Pull Emma closer.
00:58:33Come on.
00:58:34Yes.
00:58:35Like that.
00:58:36Okay.
00:58:37Go on.
00:58:40Exactly.
00:58:42Woo!
00:58:43Yeah.
00:58:45What is it?
00:58:48Stay focused, Emma.
00:58:50All right.
00:58:51All right.
00:58:52Let's go from here.
00:58:53And.
00:58:57And one small.
00:58:59Yeah.
00:58:59Can we try that turn again?
00:59:00It's fine.
00:59:01Yes, yes, yes.
00:59:02We'll do it again.
00:59:03Okay.
00:59:03You got this.
00:59:04Remember, just go lower, okay?
00:59:06Okay.
00:59:07And.
00:59:07And.
00:59:07And.
00:59:07And.

00:59:08And.
00:59:08And.
00:59:09And.
00:59:09And.
00:59:10And.
00:59:10And.
00:59:11And.
00:59:13What's the story, Giselle?
00:59:15Is this a friendly competition, or there is something else going on between you and Leo?
00:59:19Well, we'll see.
00:59:33Fantastic.
00:59:36That's the emotional commitment this piece needs.
00:59:39I'm going to ask a lot.
00:59:39Well done, you two.
00:59:40I'm going to ask a lot.
00:59:41I'm going to ask a lot.
00:59:42Well done.
00:59:43And.
00:59:44And.
00:59:45So, very good.
00:59:47Are you happy?
00:59:48Yes.
00:59:49Yes.
00:59:50Yes.
00:59:51Yes.
00:59:52Yes.

01:00:04Yes.
01:00:05Yes.
01:00:06Yes.
01:00:08It's not you, but it's a close second.
01:00:09Well you and Emma doing?
01:00:13Great, yeah.
01:00:14She's smart, dedicated.
01:00:15Hardworking.
01:00:16You left out that she's very pretty too.
01:00:18Didn't she go over well with the judges?
01:00:20Well, at the end of the day, it's all but the dancing, right?
01:00:23Of course.
01:00:26And if you need help with that turn, I'm available.
01:00:29Oh, good.
01:00:30Just something to think about.
01:00:37Hey.
01:00:39You didn't give away any of our secrets, did you?
01:00:43Do we have any secrets?
01:00:45You tell me.
01:00:48Are we still talking about dance?
01:00:52Oh, Henry!
01:00:54I've got it, I've got it.
01:00:57Okay.
01:00:57Don't babe him.
01:00:58Yes.
01:01:00I'm just going to walk him back to the flat.
01:01:02Is he okay?
01:01:03Yes, he is.
01:01:04And so is his hearing, as you know perfectly well.
01:01:08Just a little tired, that's all.

01:07:45I was just, I don't know, a little worried.

01:07:52Yeah, yeah.

01:08:30Good night.
01:08:42Good.
01:08:43Good, good.
01:08:44Yes.
01:08:44Just look at each other.
01:08:59What is happening here?
01:09:01The final is tomorrow and you're both completely disconnected.
01:09:05Please, try it again.
01:09:06Sorry, I think I'm just a little nervous.
01:09:08And again, we will need to feel it.
01:09:26Let's take a break.
01:09:27You two go get some air.
01:09:29No, that's not necessary.
01:09:30Let's just keep it going.
01:09:31I need a break.
01:09:33And a cup of hot cocoa.
01:09:35Okay, let's get some hot cocoa.
01:09:39Shall we?
01:09:45Beams, wait till you try this hot chocolate.
01:09:47They import the cocoa beans from Niger, Ghana, and the Ivory Coast.
01:09:51That's great.
01:09:54You're looking at me weird.
01:09:56Yeah, your enthusiasm for all things new and exciting has suddenly plummeted.
01:10:01Oh, sorry to disappoint.
01:10:03Wait, what is it?
01:10:04I'd like to help if I can.
01:10:06No, there's nothing you can do.
01:10:07I just need to manage my expectations.
01:10:09That's all.
01:10:10What expectations?
01:10:11With a competition?
01:10:14Or with me?
01:10:18I know we haven't talked about it, but what happened on that bridge?
01:10:21It was...
01:10:21It was a mistake.
01:10:24Yes.
01:10:25And we shouldn't let it distract us from the reason we're here.
01:10:28No, yeah, you're right.
01:10:29I got the memo, okay?
01:10:30Chemistry on the dance floor, and then everything comes to a screeching halt as soon as the music stops.
01:10:34Got it.
01:10:35Emma, it's the one thing we can control.
01:10:37No, it's the one thing you can control, Leo.
01:10:40You know, unfortunately, I don't have your aptitude for turning my feelings on and off like a light switch.
01:10:44What does that mean?
01:10:45Don't worry about it, Leo, okay?
01:10:46Let's just focus on the dance.
01:10:50Emma.
01:10:50Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:51Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:52Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:53Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:54Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:55Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:56Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:57Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:58Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:10:59Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:00Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:01Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:02Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:03Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:04Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:05Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:06Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:07Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:08Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:09Let's just focus on the dance floor.
01:11:10Henry, wait, let's talk this out.
01:11:28What is there to talk about?
01:11:30The championship is tomorrow,
01:11:31and you are both caught up in some battle of wills.
01:11:35I'm sorry, it's my fault.
01:11:36I just, I let my emotions get the best of me.
01:11:38We can go again.
01:11:39That's not what's happening here.
01:11:41You're shutting down your emotions, both of you.
01:11:44What's wrong with you two?
01:11:46You have your entire lives ahead of you,
01:11:48and yet you're wasting time being so careful
01:11:52that you can't see what's right in front of your face.
01:11:55And if that's the way you were going to dance my piece,
01:12:00then I'd rather throw in the towel now.
01:12:02Please, don't say that, Henry.
01:12:04Yeah, listen, we'll give it our best tomorrow
01:12:05to take on my win for your school, we promise.
01:12:07Oh, my dear.
01:12:08Don't you understand?
01:12:10I don't care about winning.
01:12:11I want to inspire people to feel something.
01:12:16Hope, promise, love.
01:12:20Okay, then tell us what we can do.
01:12:22Start believing in yourselves.
01:12:24Believe in each other.
01:12:26Father, you want to know what I care about?
01:12:29Creating something so beautiful
01:12:31that it's impossible to forget.
01:12:35Can you help me do that?
01:12:38Give a performance that will stand the test of time.
01:12:40We can try.
01:12:45Just trying isn't enough.
01:12:47Call it a cliche.
01:12:58Every year the same.
01:13:00Hoping that the snow will fall,
01:13:04will fall on Christmas day.
01:13:07Troubles left behind.
01:13:10Fires burning bright.
01:13:12Peace and love and joy or nothing so we need to know.
01:13:19Driving my way home to you.
01:13:24Christmas will be you.
01:13:26Hi.
01:13:26Hey there.
01:13:28I just got to work,
01:13:29and I'm wearing the new gloves you gave me.
01:13:32I love them.
01:13:33They are so me.
01:13:35You were supposed to open those till Christmas.
01:13:37You're so naughty.
01:13:38Oh, I have no willpower when it comes to presents.
01:13:40Well, I'm very happy that you like them.
01:13:42Anyway, I'm just calling
01:13:43to wish you good luck for tomorrow.
01:13:46I'll be up watching the live stream.
01:13:49But you really don't have to do that.
01:13:51Are you kidding?
01:13:52I wouldn't miss it.
01:13:53Oh.
01:13:55So how are you?
01:13:56Wait, you can't change the subject.
01:13:59What's wrong?
01:14:00Nothing.
01:14:03And everything.
01:14:04Listen, Henry's disappointed in me
01:14:07because I'm upset with Leo,
01:14:08who's seeing his old flame,
01:14:09which is completely fine,
01:14:10and it shouldn't matter to me,
01:14:11but I can't help but being bent out of shape about it.
01:14:13Wait.
01:14:14That was a lot of drama for one sentence.
01:14:17When did all this happen?
01:14:19In the last 48 hours.
01:14:20Okay.
01:14:21You have taken this break
01:14:22to find out what makes you happy,
01:14:24which I've made a complete mess of so far.
01:14:27That's all part of the journey.
01:14:29Mistakes are the dues.
01:14:30One pays for a full life.
01:14:32That's interesting.
01:14:33I borrowed that quote from Sophia Loren.
01:14:37Just focus on one day at a time.
01:14:39Tomorrow's a brand new experience.
01:14:42Whatever you're feeling,
01:14:44just let it out on that dance floor.
01:14:47I will.
01:14:48You're such a good friend.
01:14:49Love you.
01:14:50Bye.
01:14:51Bye.
01:14:52Bye.
01:14:52Hey.
01:15:12Hi.
01:15:13How you feeling?
01:15:14Uh, excited?
01:15:15Yeah, I'm nervous.
01:15:16More nervous.
01:15:17You're going to be great.
01:15:21Ladies and gentlemen,
01:15:23welcome to the Utah Pro Amp
01:15:25Ballroom Championship Finals.
01:15:29Let's put our hands together
01:15:30for our first competing couple.
01:15:32Yes.
01:15:33It's starting now.
01:15:34Please welcome Copsie and Ayers.
01:15:38Applause
01:16:44I know.
01:16:45I saw you with her.
01:17:10I...
01:17:11Look, it's none of my business.
01:17:12You can see whoever you want to see.
01:17:13Look, Emma, I know what it might have looked like.
01:17:15You don't owe me an explanation.
01:17:16Yes, I do.
01:17:17Giselle and I have a complicated past, but whatever we had is over.
01:17:21I understand.
01:17:22I don't think you do.
01:17:23I don't think you do.
01:17:28I don't think you do.
01:17:29How are you two holding up?
01:17:43Great.
01:17:44Wonderful.
01:17:45Yeah.
01:17:46It's been a demanding time for us all, and I didn't help yesterday with my theatrics.
01:17:54No, you were right.
01:17:57You have worked hard and you're prepared.
01:18:01This is the time to put everything aside and dance with your hearts.
01:18:06Well, get out there and tell your story.
01:18:12Thank you, Henry.
01:18:16What is our story, Leo?
01:18:21We have to write it together.
01:18:24I'd love that.
01:18:26Emma, Leo, you're up next.
01:18:47And now, representing Paris' Fontaine School of Dance,
01:18:53please welcome to the floor, Emma and Leo!
01:18:58Oh, holy night, the stars are brightly shining.
01:19:25It is the night of our dear Savior's birth.
01:19:34Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
01:19:43Till he appeared and the soul will destroy.
01:19:50Fall on your knees.
01:20:00Oh, hear the angels' voices.
01:20:09Oh, night divine.
01:20:16Oh, night when he was born.
01:20:25Oh, no.
01:20:26Oh, my God.
01:20:34Oh, no.
01:20:36Oh, no.
01:20:36Oh, no, no.
01:20:40Oh, my God.
01:20:41Oh, my God.
01:20:42Oh, I can't be mine
01:20:50Oh, I can't be mine
01:20:58Oh, I can't be mine
01:21:12Oh, I can't be mine
01:21:20Oh, I can't be mine
01:21:22Yes, Anna, yes
01:21:24Oh
01:21:42Oh
01:22:12It's not a bad way to spend Christmas Eve
01:22:28Well, since Santa was busy, I thought I'd help out and give you a Christmas wish
01:22:32Oh, I wanted to give you the pro-am trophy as your present
01:22:36Are you terribly disappointed we didn't win?
01:22:38Oh, no, not at all
01:22:40No, not at all
01:22:42Because I won something a lot more important
01:22:44And what is that?
01:22:46Your heart
01:22:48And about that kiss on the dance floor
01:22:52Yes
01:22:54Definitely not a mistake
01:22:56Well, that's a relief
01:22:58Because it's something I'll never forget
01:23:10Do it, Ben
01:23:24Do it, Ben
01:23:36Do it, Ben
01:23:38As we move back through the years
01:23:56From the years, from the laughter, joy and tears
01:24:01There is music playing, lights are saying
01:24:06Dreams will now come true
01:24:10Take me in your arms, we dance
01:24:14The time for love is here to stay
01:24:18You never want this time to end
01:24:22Don't let it slip away
01:24:26And it's time for us to shout and cheer
01:24:31Cause we all know that Christmas time is here
01:24:37Christmas time is here
01:24:52Christmas time is here
01:24:54Christmas time is here
