00:00:00This Christmas will be the best Christmas
00:00:17It's always the very best time of the year
00:00:20With hearts open and love that is spoken
00:00:24With every word and good tidings of cheer
00:00:28This year
00:00:32Merry Christmas, Miss Kneezer.
00:00:40I'll be merry when it's over.
00:00:43Oh, um...
00:00:45Right, well, everyone worked really hard on this ad,
00:00:49and we hope you love it.
00:00:50After Christmas this year, take an unforgettable vacation.
00:01:00You survived Yuletide, now it's time for a little you-tide.
00:01:05There's more to life than work.
00:01:07Relax with the one you love.
00:01:10Get spirited away.
00:01:12And expect more.
00:01:15With great expectations trips.
00:01:23No.
00:01:24I expected more from all of you,
00:01:26and if you give me any more Yuletide puns, you'll be fired.
00:01:30Let's go back to the coffee.
00:01:31Uh, but this has to go out for New Year's.
00:01:34Correct.
00:01:34You signed off on this approach.
00:01:37I tried the novel concept of delegating, but it failed.
00:01:41I'm sorry.
00:01:43Why are they all couples?
00:01:44Aren't we a bit tired of them?
00:01:45Well, I mean, the concept was couples on vacation.
00:01:49Did you want to see, like, friends, or...?
00:01:50Or someone vacationing alone.
00:01:52When I'm solitary as an oyster, and it suits me just fine.
00:01:55She never takes a vacation.
00:01:57Solitary as an oyster?
00:01:58Why can't we see a nice, high-powered, hard-working, single woman
00:02:02having the vacation of her life without anyone else around?
00:02:04Okay, but it's Christmas Eve.
00:02:07And what better Christmas gift for us to give to ourselves
00:02:10than the satisfaction of a job well done?
00:02:12With respect, Miss Sneezer, there isn't time.
00:02:15We can't redo the copy at this stage.
00:02:17Well, we can't, but they can.
00:02:20Here are my notes.
00:02:23They will make it better.
00:02:27Make it better.
00:02:29Bobby and I will be on the 8.30 flight to Sydney.
00:02:33The rest of you have two days to handle this.
00:02:36But tomorrow is Christmas.
00:02:38Which I will blissfully be skipping, opting out, flying over.
00:02:41But Christmas is still happening.
00:02:43Not for Bobby and me.
00:02:44New York to Sydney is the longest flight in the world.
00:02:47You literally skip a day.
00:02:48If we leave on the 24th, we land on the 26th.
00:02:52And that's what we're doing on purpose.
00:02:56Well, that sounds super fun, but we're not skipping Christmas
00:03:01unless you're saying that we have to.
00:03:03No, of course not.
00:03:06Of course I'm not saying that you need to work on Christmas.
00:03:08I'm just saying that the ad has to be done in two days
00:03:13and I expect to see it when I land in Australia.
00:03:15But that will be the 25th for us here.
00:03:19Christmas Day.
00:03:21Well, you'll figure it out.
00:03:22Bobby.
00:03:23Bobby.
00:03:29I have your carry-on ready to go.
00:03:31You have electrolytes, hand lotion, hand sanitizer, eye mask.
00:03:34My ruby scarf.
00:03:36Your what?
00:03:36I'll find it.
00:03:39Snacks?
00:03:41Salty or sweet?
00:03:43Sour.
00:03:44Sounds about right.
00:03:47Did you say something?
00:03:48No.
00:03:49Nothing.
00:03:51Um, I got you a Christmas present.
00:03:56Oh.
00:03:58Well, that was unnecessary.
00:04:00I found a photo of you and Marlene Jacobson.
00:04:03I thought you might like it.
00:04:06Marlene was the best mentor anyone could ask for.
00:04:10I'm so glad you like it.
00:04:12Today is the anniversary of her death.
00:04:13Today?
00:04:14Yes.
00:04:14Wow.
00:04:17I'm so sorry.
00:04:18Are you okay?
00:04:19Is this real silver?
00:04:20It's plated.
00:04:23Find my scarf before you forget.
00:04:27Speaking of scarves, there's been some requests to turn up the temperature on the thermostat.
00:04:3355 degrees is cold for an office.
00:04:35When you pay the electric bill, you can set the temperature.
00:04:38But I just...
00:04:39They can layer.
00:04:40Good excuse to wear those ugly Christmas sweaters, right?
00:04:43Right.
00:04:46Go now.
00:04:47I need to clean up my inbox before we head to the airport.
00:04:49Okay.
00:04:50I'll meet you there.
00:04:51I have to meet Tim in the city first to say goodbye.
00:04:53Tim?
00:04:54My son.
00:04:56Since I'll be missing Christmas with him.
00:04:58Right.
00:05:00Just get my stuff first, okay?
00:05:09Hey, Fran.
00:05:32Now's not a great time.
00:05:33And Merry Christmas to you too, sis.
00:05:35Christmas by humbug.
00:05:37Did you get the wreath I sent?
00:05:38You didn't throw it away again, did you?
00:05:42Not immediately.
00:05:44Ella Kneezer.
00:05:45It is Christmas time.
00:05:47It is the best of times.
00:05:49It's the worst of times.
00:05:50Okay, I know what will tear you up.
00:05:52God, rusty, merry dogs and cats.
00:05:56Let's greet you with wolf meow.
00:05:59Remember all good little pets get Christmas treats.
00:06:02Oh, wow.
00:06:05Look, I don't remember the rest.
00:06:08I'm sorry, Frances.
00:06:09I have to get back to work.
00:06:10You know, it's not too late to join us.
00:06:12Yes, it is.
00:06:13I am flying to Australia tonight.
00:06:14I'm sorry.
00:06:15You know, we haven't had a Christmas together since you broke up with Jake.
00:06:18You celebrate Christmas your way.
00:06:20And I will celebrate it mine.
00:06:22But you don't celebrate it.
00:06:23Exactly.
00:06:24Say hi to the kids.
00:06:25Merry Christmas.
00:06:26Get it together, Ella.
00:06:50Oh, uh, Miss Kneezer.
00:06:51Hey, glad I caught you.
00:06:53Uh, don't worry.
00:06:53We're working on the copy.
00:06:54But I just wanted to follow up on that message from Angela at Pickwick & Co. Paper on floor three.
00:07:00No?
00:07:01Uh, anyways, she's organizing the holiday collection pool for the doorman, cleaning staff, and essential building employees.
00:07:06I sent you an email?
00:07:09Walk.
00:07:10Right, yeah.
00:07:11Uh, anywho, a bunch of us have already chipped in, so we're just wondering what we can put you down for.
00:07:16Nothing.
00:07:17Oh, you just want to, like, keep it anonymous?
00:07:18I want to be left alone.
00:07:19Do you have any idea how expensive my overhead is?
00:07:22I don't make merry at Christmas, and I can't afford to make everyone else merry.
00:07:25Okay, but Miss Kneezer.
00:07:27This time of year, I don't have anything to give right now.
00:07:31I should get to the airport.
00:07:35Merry Christmas.
00:07:39On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me, a part of the tree, a pear tree.
00:07:46On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me, two little two doodles, and a part of the tree, a pear tree.
00:07:53No, thank you.
00:07:54On the third day of Christmas, my true love sent to me, a part of the tree, a pear tree.
00:07:56Merry Christmas, Miss Kneezer.
00:07:59I've been all over.
00:08:14Please do something about this line.
00:08:16Gold elite, humbug.
00:08:18I can't find your ruby scarf.
00:08:20What?
00:08:21I'm so sorry.
00:08:22I went to your house, the dry cleaner.
00:08:23I didn't even get to say goodbye to Tim.
00:08:26Oh, really?
00:08:28It's fine.
00:08:30I bought these.
00:08:31Will any of them work?
00:08:32Bobby, those are burgundy, crimson, and claret.
00:08:34Are you serious?
00:08:35I know yours was special.
00:08:37No, I don't have special things.
00:08:38It was just...
00:08:40Excuse me.
00:08:41Pardon me.
00:08:42No, sorry.
00:08:42I'm just going to slide through here.
00:08:44Yeah.
00:08:45Jake.
00:08:49Hello.
00:08:49Well, hi.
00:08:54Hi.
00:08:55Oh, um, Jake, this is my assistant.
00:09:04Bobby, Bobby, this is my Jake.
00:09:07This is my...
00:09:10ex-fiancée.
00:09:13Hi.
00:09:15You were engaged?
00:09:17What's it been?
00:09:18Five years?
00:09:20Six.
00:09:21Six years.
00:09:23Today, actually.
00:09:26Right.
00:09:27Well, we should go.
00:09:35We are checking in.
00:09:37Yeah.
00:09:38I got a flight to check into, too.
00:09:40See you around.
00:09:45Sure.
00:09:47Merry Christmas.
00:09:49Merry Christmas.
00:09:54You've had some hard Christmas Eves.
00:09:55We need to do something about this line.
00:09:58Are you okay?
00:09:59Stop asking me if I'm okay.
00:10:01I'll be okay when we get on this plane and away from all of this Christmas.
00:10:05And a partridge in a pear tree.
00:10:11Okay.
00:10:12Merry Christmas.
00:10:13Oh, she's right home.
00:10:14Can I interest you in any holiday items for the flight?
00:10:16No, thank you.
00:10:16We have light-up necklaces.
00:10:18We have reindeer handlers.
00:10:19Santa hat.
00:10:20Elfers.
00:10:21And a partridge in a pear tree.
00:10:27Are any of them noise-canceling?
00:10:29No.
00:10:30But we do have some earplugs in your vanity kit.
00:10:34Wonderful.
00:10:34I mean, just allow me.
00:10:52Panda partridge in a pear tree.
00:11:00I'm going to need more space.
00:11:02Oh, yeah.
00:11:07Oh, sir.
00:11:08Just, uh, let me grab that for a while.
00:11:09Oh, my.
00:11:10Sorry, Santa.
00:11:11Ho, ho, ho.
00:11:13Welcome to Sydney Air.
00:11:15I'm your captain, and your not-so-secret Santa for this flight.
00:11:21Surprise!
00:11:22The Christmas crackers are from me.
00:11:24But I have even more excitement on my sleigh.
00:11:28Now, I know you're all sad to be missing Christmas on land.
00:11:32So we're going to do our darndest to give you a Christmas above the cloud.
00:11:38Oh, no.
00:11:39And I'll be your emcee for the duration of this flight.
00:11:43Just under 20 hours.
00:11:46And I'm...
00:11:47Who do we have here?
00:11:50Ho, ho, ho!
00:11:52Well, it's Santa.
00:11:56And he is my first elf, Pip.
00:11:58Is that?
00:11:59To welcome you aboard.
00:12:00Okay, me then.
00:12:04Okay, everybody.
00:12:06Are we ready to take it again from the time?
00:12:08On the first day of Christmas, my true love dance for me.
00:12:12A partridge in a pantry.
00:12:15Everybody.
00:12:16I know, Mom.
00:12:17Believe me, I am devastated to be missing Christmas.
00:12:21Sardine?
00:12:22Bobby, you didn't even make it home before the flight to say goodbye to Tim.
00:12:26I know.
00:12:28How is he?
00:12:29Can I talk to him?
00:12:30He did just need his inhaler, but he is okay now.
00:12:33Put him on.
00:12:34How's your seat?
00:12:36It's really good, Mom.
00:12:38Cozy.
00:12:39Mommy!
00:12:42Tim, how are you feeling?
00:12:44I'm doing better now.
00:12:45I love you.
00:12:46I'm so sorry I didn't make it home.
00:12:48It's not your fault.
00:12:49Guess what?
00:12:51Why?
00:12:52I asked Santa to bring you back for Christmas morning.
00:12:55Oh.
00:12:56Honey, Santa can't...
00:12:57I need your tablet charger.
00:12:59I have to go, Tim.
00:12:59And your neck pillow.
00:13:00I love you.
00:13:01Oh, this is madness.
00:13:03Do you know that in first class they're insisting on singing Christmas carols before serving the champagne?
00:13:09Okay.
00:13:10This is gonna be such a long flight.
00:13:15Excuse me, Pip.
00:13:20Will there be meal service at the beginning of this flight?
00:13:22Yes.
00:13:23Just a quick multi-course Christmas feast before the lights dim.
00:13:26Please do not wake me for that.
00:13:28Alternatively, we have our Hanukkah across Hemispheres gefilte fish stick feast for our kosher option.
00:13:33Okay.
00:13:40Yeah, thanks.
00:13:41I'm in 2A.
00:13:46You have got to be kidding me.
00:13:49Merry Christmas to us.
00:13:51You know, I think it would be best if you asked to switch seats with someone.
00:14:03Is that right?
00:14:05Well, I was upgraded to this seat, so...
00:14:08You're more than welcome to ask if it's that much of a problem to you.
00:14:11No, I can't, because I always sit in 2B.
00:14:14Still anxious about flying.
00:14:15Why are you flying now?
00:14:19I thought you loved Christmas.
00:14:21Oui.
00:14:23Loved Christmas.
00:14:27There's a convention in Sydney at the beginning of January for child advocacy groups around the world.
00:14:32I was invited to talk with my mentorship program for my charity.
00:14:38Oh.
00:14:39And I still do love Christmas.
00:14:43Well, what about spending it with your mom?
00:14:46Cheaper to fly today.
00:14:48She pushed me to go.
00:14:51What about you?
00:14:53Don't tell me you're finally taking a vacation.
00:14:57No, it is a work trip.
00:14:59We are onboarding a chain of boutique hotels in Australia.
00:15:06Oh, come on.
00:15:07Can't you just switch seats with someone?
00:15:09I miss the opportunity to feel this level of vibrant awkwardness for the next 20 hours.
00:15:16No way.
00:15:17You are trying to annoy me.
00:15:18How could I do that?
00:15:20You're impenetrable.
00:15:20You're the grind culture queen of New York.
00:15:25See, you read the Forbes article.
00:15:28Thought you'd love it.
00:15:29All publicity is good publicity, okay?
00:15:32This flight is 9,929 miles.
00:15:35Wow.
00:15:36You don't say.
00:15:38I'm Oliver.
00:15:39Want to give me math problems?
00:15:40No, I don't.
00:15:41Say, Oliver.
00:15:43Want to switch seats?
00:15:45Do I?
00:15:45You know what?
00:15:47I got a better idea.
00:15:48Why don't I write down some problems for you to solve on the plane?
00:15:52Quietly.
00:15:52Make them difficult.
00:15:55I'll mention it.
00:15:56Jake.
00:16:05Now, please take a moment to review our safety video.
00:16:20Tell I'm miser.
00:16:34Of all the luxury first-class pods and all the jumbo jets in the world, you walk into mine.
00:16:39Merry Christmas.
00:16:40It can't be.
00:16:41What are you doing flying commercial?
00:16:43Marlene?
00:16:44In the flat.
00:16:45There must have been something wrong with that champagne.
00:16:47Well, duh.
00:16:48It's Prosecco.
00:16:49No, no.
00:16:50This can't be.
00:16:51I, I, I must be dreaming.
00:16:54You won't believe what you see with your own eyes?
00:17:01Marlene?
00:17:02You're supposed to be dead.
00:17:04I'm haunting you.
00:17:06I, I have to wake up.
00:17:08Please, keep your seatbelt fastened while the seatbelt light is on.
00:17:12Just doing my job.
00:17:12Given the safety demonstration is your job?
00:17:16It's my torture.
00:17:19Doomed to travel eternity in an airline safety video, watching lonely, greedy souls make the
00:17:26same mistakes I did.
00:17:27Mistakes?
00:17:28Marlene, no.
00:17:29You were everything I've aspired to be.
00:17:32You were a force.
00:17:34You were the, the pinnacle of hashtag girl boss.
00:17:37You knew just how to be a woman in business and you rose right to the top.
00:17:41But I didn't.
00:17:42Yes, you did.
00:17:43You had everything.
00:17:44I had nothing.
00:17:46Well, you had an impressive portfolio.
00:17:47I had no one in my life.
00:17:49I was miserable.
00:17:50I never took a vacation.
00:17:53I never made anyone's life better.
00:17:56I never even celebrated Christmas.
00:17:58Are those chains?
00:17:59Forget about the chains.
00:18:01I'm wearing polyester.
00:18:02I'm literally caught dead in something I wouldn't be caught dead in.
00:18:05Oh, you poor thing.
00:18:07Don't pity me.
00:18:09I made this fate for myself.
00:18:11I forged these chains in life with my own selfish choices.
00:18:15Your chains?
00:18:17Elenizer.
00:18:17Mine were nearly this long several Christmas eves ago.
00:18:21Imagine how heavy they would be now.
00:18:24You could end up behind the screen like me.
00:18:27Or worse.
00:18:30In an employee's training video.
00:18:32I want to help you.
00:18:34You have a chance and hope of escaping my fate.
00:18:37Oh, thank you.
00:18:38Thank you, Marlene.
00:18:39Tonight, you will be visited by three spirits.
00:18:44That's the chance and hope?
00:18:45It is.
00:18:45Uh, no.
00:18:47No, I'd rather not do that.
00:18:48The first spirit will come when the seatbelt light tolls one.
00:18:52Can't they all just come at once and I can get them out of the way?
00:18:55You will be visited by spirits.
00:18:57And please, take the time to locate your nearest emergency exit, which may be behind you.
00:19:03But your fate has no exit.
00:19:06Fare thee well, Elenizer.
00:19:09No.
00:19:09You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:19:31It's going to be okay.
00:19:33Let's kick off this 20-hour flight ride.
00:19:37Now, many of you may not know, but I was honorable mention at the 2014 Tasmanian Poetry Slam.
00:19:45So, I'll be sharing with you some of my most favorite spoken word Christmas poems.
00:19:56So, if you see a koala on your Christmas morning hikey, and you likey, likey, likey, put tinsel on the eucalyptus tree and give her a candy cane.
00:20:09Crikey!
00:20:09You okay?
00:20:16Not really.
00:20:19I can't really feel my arm.
00:20:21Yeah.
00:20:24You probably just need some sleep.
00:20:26I can't sleep.
00:20:28I have work to do.
00:20:29Right.
00:20:31Work.
00:20:32Your favorite Christmas tradition.
00:20:37Mm-hmm.
00:20:39Ma'am?
00:21:09Ma'am?
00:21:10I'm going to need you to come to an upright position, please.
00:21:14Merry Christmas.
00:21:15I'm the ghost of Christmas past.
00:21:18We know you have choices when you time travel.
00:21:20Time travel?
00:21:21So, on behalf of your soul, we would like to thank you for traveling with us.
00:21:25Wait, did I have choices?
00:21:26Well, that's the point.
00:21:27Your choices.
00:21:29Where did everybody go?
00:21:31Please take a moment to review the Christmas time travel information.
00:21:34And if you're unwilling to perform any of the functions, just ask to be re-seated.
00:21:38Can I be re-seated?
00:21:39No.
00:21:40Merry Christmas.
00:21:41I will be accompanying you to Christmas time past with services to memory and continued service to regret.
00:21:46Wait, do you know who I am?
00:21:49Ellen Ezer.
00:21:50Grind Culture Queen CEO of Great Expectation Trips.
00:21:53Okay.
00:21:54Well, the first ghost, Marlene Jacobson, have you heard of her?
00:21:57Mm-hmm.
00:21:57She appeared on the screen.
00:21:58And so we're just going to do this right here in my seat.
00:22:05Please follow the emergency lights to the exit.
00:22:09Merry Christmas.
00:22:10No, no, no.
00:22:11Marlene assured me there would be no exit.
00:22:13So I think what's happened is we just got some wires are just getting clustered.
00:22:16If we experience a sudden loss in camera pressure, oxygen mask will be released.
00:22:21Be sure to secure your mask first before helping others.
00:22:24But you're always looking out for number one, am I right?
00:22:26No.
00:22:27No.
00:22:27No.
00:22:27I'm experiencing a sudden loss in camera pressure.
00:22:34Hey, it's mine.
00:22:37Say it's mine.
00:22:38No.
00:22:47I'm going to need to speak to your manager.
00:22:50You'll be receiving an email with a survey regarding your experience.
00:22:53What?
00:22:55This is...
00:22:56No, this can't be.
00:22:58Your past.
00:22:59It is.
00:23:00Merry Christmas.
00:23:01This is Hodges, my boarding school.
00:23:04And that's me.
00:23:06I used to love that song.
00:23:14Strange to have forgotten that.
00:23:17I felt so lonely that Christmas.
00:23:20Solitary as an oyster, if you will.
00:23:23I was ten.
00:23:25Her mom and dad had work overseas.
00:23:27So Francis and I stayed at school the entire break.
00:23:31She is okay.
00:23:33She is okay.
00:23:37These are but shadows of things that have been.
00:23:40She can't hear you.
00:23:45Oh, and there's Francis.
00:23:46God rest thee, merry dogs and cats.
00:23:53Let's greet you with wolf meow.
00:23:56Come on.
00:23:57Let's go sing some characters.
00:23:58Francis always had a way of making everything feel better.
00:24:05And you used to let her.
00:24:07Now, let's see another Christmas.
00:24:10What?
00:24:10What?
00:24:13This is my grad school library.
00:24:17And that's me again.
00:24:20You've always been a hard worker, burning the midnight oil.
00:24:23Wakey-wakey, library's closing.
00:24:29Um, why, why is the library closing?
00:24:34Well, see, it's Christmas Eve.
00:24:37Some people celebrate and sleep in...
00:24:42Benz.
00:24:48I know you.
00:24:50You do?
00:24:51Global markets analysis.
00:24:52Oh.
00:24:53Yeah.
00:24:55You used to always come to class ten minutes early like me.
00:24:57Sorry.
00:24:58Of course.
00:24:59You were always so pretty.
00:25:02Pretty busy.
00:25:06Anyway.
00:25:07It's okay.
00:25:08Never too busy to have a conversation with a...
00:25:12cute librarian.
00:25:16Okay.
00:25:19I'm Jake.
00:25:20I'll, uh, gingerbread cookie?
00:25:24Roasted chestnut?
00:25:25Shh.
00:25:25I really hate to do this, but I do have to kick you out.
00:25:28No, please.
00:25:33Five more minutes.
00:25:36Come on.
00:25:36I'll keep studying and...
00:25:38You can close up.
00:25:39Okay, that was spooky.
00:25:48Is this place haunted?
00:25:54Timers.
00:25:55Lights are on.
00:25:56Timers.
00:25:58It's less exciting.
00:25:59Yeah.
00:26:02Okay.
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:03I do know something that might light you up, though.
00:26:18I like lights.
00:26:20Great.
00:26:22Follow me.
00:26:23Everything out.
00:26:34I planted this tree 400 years ago.
00:26:37No, you didn't.
00:26:38No, I did.
00:26:38Look, we're going to chop it down.
00:26:39It's going to go in my living room.
00:26:40Wow, you're ancient.
00:26:41Oh, my gosh.
00:26:42That's it.
00:26:44So pretty.
00:26:45Ooh.
00:26:45Thanks.
00:26:58I like the color.
00:27:00Keep it.
00:27:02Looks better on you.
00:27:04Thirsty?
00:27:08Okay, okay.
00:27:10So, what is your plan after graduation?
00:27:14Librarian's always an option.
00:27:17It's a small world.
00:27:18I've actually been looking into jobs that involve sleeping in libraries.
00:27:24No, no, no.
00:27:25Something tells me you got a plan.
00:27:28I have a plan.
00:27:31It's just embarrassing to say it out loud.
00:27:33Oh, good.
00:27:35Do you want me to gather some people?
00:27:36Some people around?
00:27:37Hey, hey, hey.
00:27:38Go ahead.
00:27:39I want to build my own travel company.
00:27:40One that makes it easy and efficient for people to plan unique vacations.
00:27:46That's fantastic.
00:27:49That's not even a little bit embarrassing.
00:27:51What?
00:27:52As if I can't pull it off?
00:27:54Of course you can.
00:27:55I just met you and I know that.
00:27:57It's a great idea.
00:27:59I'm a believer.
00:28:00You love traveling?
00:28:01To be honest, I haven't really done any.
00:28:03Really?
00:28:04So now I want to see the world.
00:28:06Yeah.
00:28:07China.
00:28:09Australia.
00:28:10I want life to feel like a big adventure.
00:28:13Sounds like you're going to have a wonderful life.
00:28:16I hope so.
00:28:18Anyway, I don't have the plan quite as figured out specifically as you do.
00:28:22But I do know I want to do something to help at-risk children.
00:28:28At-risk?
00:28:29Yeah, you know, ones that need positive relationships, connections.
00:28:34It's harder to be healthy and happy when you feel alone.
00:28:39Wow.
00:28:42Now I really am embarrassed.
00:28:44Stop.
00:28:46Well, helping at-risk kids is much more noble than planning vacations.
00:28:52The world needs both equally.
00:28:55And you know what we need?
00:28:56We need to take a selfie.
00:28:59Oh.
00:29:00I always try to take a photo of the best part of my day.
00:29:05Look.
00:29:06This is it.
00:29:07Right here.
00:29:12Just don't ask me to download it anywhere.
00:29:15Upload it.
00:29:16Offload it.
00:29:17What?
00:29:17Wait.
00:29:18All of your photos just live on your phone?
00:29:20I think so.
00:29:22Photos live on phones?
00:29:23I'm challenged in so many ways.
00:29:26But technically challenged is definitely one of them.
00:29:30Okay.
00:29:30You gotta let me help you with that sometime.
00:29:34Okay.
00:29:38Why do you look so sad?
00:29:43Because I was so happy.
00:29:46Come.
00:29:47There's many more Christmases to see.
00:29:49I interned here in grad school.
00:30:06That's Fez, the owner.
00:30:07This was the best office Christmas party.
00:30:10Silly, huh?
00:30:10To indulge in all this merriment and other intangibles that don't make any money.
00:30:15I know what you're doing.
00:30:18What?
00:30:19What am I doing?
00:30:20You want me to say, wow, what a supportive work environment.
00:30:24Wasn't it?
00:30:25I'll have you know, this company failed.
00:30:27And the following year, everyone had to look for new jobs.
00:30:30You have a very selective memory.
00:30:32You're selecting the memories.
00:30:34Sockings may be empty.
00:30:39No.
00:30:40No.
00:30:40You want me to dance.
00:30:42But I don't care as long as I care.
00:30:44I work here.
00:30:45I don't want to make a fool of myself.
00:30:47Are we at the same party?
00:30:48Okay, well, two fools don't make a right.
00:30:51I disagree.
00:30:51Are you sure you're not the ghost of Christmas nostalgia?
00:31:11You want me to think everything was better than it actually was?
00:31:16This is what it was.
00:31:18No tricks.
00:31:18If I knew you'd be mine for always
00:31:25I won't be blue on Christmas
00:31:30If all said look comes through
00:31:37Thanks, you guys.
00:31:39Bye.
00:31:40I love you.
00:31:40Bye.
00:31:56Bye.

00:33:51I got the job with Marlene Jacobson!
00:34:11Oh, I'm so proud of you!
00:34:14Let's go celebrate!
00:34:15No!
00:34:16Let's go celebrate!
00:34:17No time, too much to do!
00:34:21You are now free to move about the cabin. Merry Christmas!
00:34:27This is Marlene's office.
00:34:28I know our travel itinerary.
00:34:30You'll be my right hand at all times.
00:34:32And I mean all times.
00:34:36You don't have an active social life, do you?
00:34:39No, but I do not.
00:34:40My point is...
00:34:42Where did the seatbelts go?
00:34:44You ask all the wrong questions.
00:34:45I need your focus here. We must be in sync, a team.
00:34:48Got it. No problem, Ms. Jacobson.
00:34:50You may call me Marlene, except when it irritates me.
00:34:54Okay, thank you, Ms. Jacobson.
00:34:57Jim? Is that work-related?
00:35:00I'm sorry, I was just delivering my secret Santa gift.
00:35:06Oh, is that something you need to apologize for?
00:35:09Employees should not prance around the office pretending to be elves during work hours.
00:35:14Stealing time from one's employer never put anyone on the nice list.
00:35:18What? She's right.
00:35:20Oh, no, I was giving, not stealing.
00:35:23When it comes to the bottom line, time and money are interchangeable.
00:35:28Exceptions cannot be made.
00:35:30Certainly not for the frivolity of a sneaky Santa.
00:35:35It's actually Secret Santa.
00:35:39Is it?
00:35:40Oh.
00:35:49I'll stay late.
00:35:50I learned this lesson the hard way, Ella.
00:35:57But you don't have to.
00:35:58It's difficult to be a woman in charge.
00:36:02It's not fun to be the person that no one likes, but it's more important to be respected.
00:36:07That sounds tough.
00:36:08It's a choice.
00:36:09It's lonely at the top.
00:36:11But I think you can get there.
00:36:13That means a lot.
00:36:14Thank you, Ms. Jacobson.
00:36:16I told you to call me Marlene.
00:36:18You'll be on call 24-7.
00:36:20Got it.
00:36:21And I don't want to hear the words, no, I can't, or, I'm otherwise engaged.
00:36:27Good.
00:36:28Distractions are the enemy of success.
00:36:31Watch and learn, kid.
00:36:33I'll teach you how to get everything you ever wanted.
00:36:38Come on, Dive Bar Christmas is the one tradition we have left that your work has not ruined over the years.
00:36:48I told you I'm on a deadline.
00:36:50You're always on a deadline.
00:36:51Jake, I can't have this conversation again.
00:36:53I get it.
00:36:54I get it, but I...
00:36:55You don't get it.
00:36:56I'm finally getting what I want.
00:36:58Are you?
00:37:00Excuse me?
00:37:01Come on, Ella.
00:37:02You wanted to build a company.
00:37:04Remember?
00:37:05You wanted to travel the world.
00:37:06When's the big adventure coming?
00:37:07Yeah, I'm going to.
00:37:08You have no idea what I want.
00:37:12Maybe you're right.
00:37:13Maybe I have no idea.
00:37:14I thought you wanted a wonderful life.
00:37:16With me.
00:37:20Please don't make me relive this.
00:37:22I did.
00:37:23But I think we just want different things now.
00:37:42Okay.
00:37:43I won't stand in your way.
00:37:47I don't want to see anymore.
00:38:01There, there.
00:38:02It's just one more layover.
00:38:07This is my office.
00:38:08Yes, it is.
00:38:09Last year.
00:38:10Merry Christmas.
00:38:11We cannot settle for mediocrity.
00:38:26You're dismissed.
00:38:27What?
00:38:28They under-delivered.
00:38:29You're dismissed.
00:38:31What? They under-delivered.
00:38:34Bobby!
00:38:38It's 9.38 a.m.
00:38:40I'm sorry, I'm late, Miss Kneezer.
00:38:42We have to close tomorrow for Christmas,
00:38:44but we all have the same amount of work to do.
00:38:46I'm sorry, I had a family emergency.
00:38:49I will ask you to deal with your emergencies on your time
00:38:52and my emergencies online.
00:38:55Like?
00:38:56Do you see our listings in Iceland?
00:38:59All of the amenities include private beach.
00:39:03Is that something you're capable of fixing?
00:39:06Let me set my stuff down and I'll get right on it.
00:39:09Bobby,
00:39:11if your personal life is making this job too difficult for you to handle,
00:39:16perhaps you should look elsewhere.
00:39:22Not sure I said it quite like that.
00:39:25I know. I don't know. I-I don't know what else to do, Mom.
00:39:38How's he holding up?
00:39:40He's resting comfortably now.
00:39:42Oh, I can't believe an emergency room would take all night to see a sick child.
00:39:46You must be exhausted.
00:39:47I just hope he's gonna be okay.
00:39:49I don't even wanna know what that visit's gonna cost.
00:39:52Honey, honey, don't even think about that right now.
00:39:56Can you tell him I love him?
00:39:58I will.
00:39:59He loves you too.
00:40:01Who's the child?
00:40:02Is that Bobby's son? Is he okay?
00:40:04Why are you worried?
00:40:05She got those listings fixed before she left work that day.
00:40:08This isn't about the listings. This is about her child.
00:40:11Oh, that's the seatbelt sign. It is time to return to your seats.
00:40:17In the unlikely event of a water landing,
00:40:19remember, pull the tabs to inflate the vest or blow air through the tube.
00:40:23We hope you enjoyed your journey and thank you again for traveling with us.
00:40:28Wait, I'm not ready yet. What happens to her child?
00:40:31Merry Christmas!
00:40:36Ew. Am I in coach?
00:40:46Boo!
00:40:49You good?
00:40:50What are you doing here?
00:40:52What are you doing here?
00:40:53What are you doing here?
00:40:54First class was occupied.
00:40:55My boss, right?
00:40:56Yeah!
00:40:59Okay, this is gonna sound a little bit zany,
00:41:00but there was this flight attendant and she's also a ghost
00:41:02and she took me to New York and you were there
00:41:03and then all these memories came flooding back.
00:41:04Ella, Ella, breathe.
00:41:05What? What?
00:41:06Breathe, breathe, breathe.
00:41:07Okay, okay.
00:41:08Look, you probably had a bad dream, right?
00:41:09Right?
00:41:11Good.
00:41:12Good.
00:41:13Now, why are you wearing a life vest?
00:41:16The ghost gave it to me.
00:41:17Okay, why don't we talk about this back of the suits,
00:41:19or at least not in the bathroom?
00:41:20Yeah.
00:41:21Yeah?
00:41:24Because I need to use the bathroom.
00:41:25Oh my God, sorry.
00:41:42Why do you have a life vest?
00:41:44I really wish I knew.
00:41:45Please do not play with the emergency equipment.
00:41:48I'm...
00:41:49It compromises the safety of the crew and the passengers.
00:41:54I won't.
00:41:55And I'm sorry.
00:41:59May I please have something to eat?
00:42:01I've changed my mind about the gefilte fish stick feast.
00:42:04Excellent.
00:42:05Can I get you anything to drink?
00:42:08Beer?
00:42:09Wine?
00:42:10Spirits?
00:42:11No.
00:42:12No spirits.
00:42:13Just the gefilte fish.
00:42:15Excellent.
00:42:17And...
00:42:18Hands off.
00:42:22Feeling better?
00:42:23A little, I think.
00:42:25Listen, Jake...
00:42:26Look, I wanted to say I'm sorry.
00:42:27You're sorry?
00:42:28I shouldn't be giving you a hard time about working Christmas Eve and bringing up the past.
00:42:32It's not...
00:42:33No, Jake.
00:42:34I have been thinking...
00:42:35Also, I could change seats if you still want me to.
00:42:37No, Jake.
00:42:40I've been thinking.
00:42:41And I wanted to say that I realized there were quite a few Christmases where my work may have...
00:42:53Detracted from the holiday.
00:42:55You mispronounced.
00:42:56Ruined?
00:42:57Okay, tomato, tomato.
00:42:58Destroyed?
00:42:59Annihilated?
00:43:00Yeah, fine.
00:43:01That...
00:43:04What I want to say is...
00:43:08I really think I could have managed things better.
00:43:11Thanks for saying that.
00:43:16A few years late, but...
00:43:21Yeah.
00:43:30Are you still making those holiday photo gifts?
00:43:33Behold.
00:43:35The calendar.
00:43:36Wow.
00:43:37Yeah.
00:43:38It sure looks like something a mother would love.
00:43:41Do you mean only a mother would love?
00:43:43I didn't say that.
00:43:44You're saying it with your eyes.
00:43:45No!
00:43:46I mean, it was implied, but...
00:43:48But I didn't say it.
00:43:50Sure.
00:43:52Please, sir, may I have some more?
00:43:57More?

00:44:56You must be famished after all that zipping about you've done tonight.
00:45:00Excuse me?
00:45:00Ghost of Christmas present.

00:45:11This is the cockpit?
00:45:18Oh, yeah.

00:45:52What?
00:45:53Wait.
00:45:55Don't they take the emergency exit?
00:45:57No, that's how the spirits did it in the past.

00:46:03Well, you better buckle up.
00:46:07Visions are present and near present in coming.

00:47:07approve one it's a krampus oh it's a horned beast of course
00:47:12wait me i'm the horned beast who likes to punish people of course giving us a holiday party with
00:47:18me and acknowledging our value she'd never do that no parties are a cost inefficient way to
00:47:24promote team bonding plus some people find them very awkward and some people should just listen
00:47:29she treats us like we're beggars in victorian london exactly i thought she'd respond to our
00:47:35heat request by giving us coal yes mine by orphans totally she has no idea how unappreciated we feel
00:47:43but you know what guys it's christmas eve let's not focus on the bad i mean she haunts us when she's

01:02:35Can I help you?
01:02:42Everyone else is sleeping.
01:02:45I hope the pilot's awake.
01:02:47He's probably eating.
01:02:50Wait, what?
01:02:51What?
01:02:52Something you want to say?
01:03:06Will you please tell me more about this talk you're giving?
01:03:10Overcoming isolation through mentorship.
01:03:13Did I mention that?
01:03:15Uh, Sarah did. I ran into her.
01:03:18Oh, right.
01:03:21Let's see.
01:03:23We provide after-school care and support
01:03:26for about 50,000 kids in the tri-state area.
01:03:30It's just a drop in the bucket.
01:03:32Our goal is to be in every major city in the world one day.
01:03:36Lofty, Lionel.
01:03:39You can do it.
01:03:41I believe in you.
01:03:43Thanks for, uh, asking about it.
01:03:50I've been thinking a lot about success lately.
01:03:56Or really just tonight, actually.
01:03:59And I've got the job of my dreams, but it doesn't make me feel...
01:04:05It's hard, you know, because everyone around me is wishing me a Merry Christmas.
01:04:09I just haven't felt Merry since...
01:04:21It's been a long time.
01:04:25It's never too late to change.
01:04:39Probably get some sleep.
01:04:41Still got a long way to go.
01:04:44Good night.
01:04:50Good night.
01:04:54Good night.
01:04:56Good night.
01:05:13Can I help you?
01:05:16Air Marshal, ghost of Christmas yet to come.
01:05:29Oh boy.
01:05:38You'll tell me what will happen in Christmases yet to come?
01:05:46Oh no.
01:05:56So you don't want me to open the door?
01:05:59Okay, okay.
01:06:01Uh, well just before we get going, um, in the end if it's not too much trouble, do you think
01:06:05you could put me back in my seat instead of the lavatory?
01:06:07Why, why, why, why are you pointing at me?
01:06:11Whoa.
01:06:12Well, my office building is still here in the future, that's good news.
01:06:21You're omniscient too, right, just to be clear?
01:06:25Look, I'm not trying to tell you how to do your job, and I'm certainly not complaining
01:06:28because the last two ghosts were a little too chatty, if you know what I mean, but I think
01:06:33it could really help if you had some commentary or guidance for me, you know?
01:06:42Seems you're not open to notes, and I respect that.
01:06:47Sir?
01:06:48Sir?
01:06:52Oh, is it warm in here?
01:06:53Did I agree to turn the thermostat up, or is heat just free in the future?
01:06:58I don't normally talk this much, I'm just nervous, and I don't have a lot of experience
01:07:01being nervous, but you are just sober, okay?
01:07:06Well, this looks like the last of it.
01:07:08She'd be happy to know the catering bill for the service will be low.
01:07:12No need to put out a spread if I don't expect anyone to come.
01:07:15Who are they talking about?
01:07:16Still, don't you feel like a little bad?
01:07:18I mean, shouldn't we be mourning or something?
01:07:20I am mourning.
01:07:21I never call the recommendation letter.
01:07:26Hey!
01:07:27Isn't that Miss Neezer's scarf?
01:07:29Is it?
01:07:29It is!
01:07:30I just found it and took it since it was freezing in the office.
01:07:34One thing you can say for Krampus, she had taste.
01:07:38That's about all you can say.
01:07:39Wait, wait, wait, who are they talking about?
01:07:42Wait!
01:07:46Hey!
01:07:47Put the vase down!
01:07:48Why are they packing up my office?
01:07:50Hey, this is my stuff!
01:07:52Stop!
01:07:54Not the chair.
01:07:55Not the chair!
01:07:56He's desecrating my custom perfect posture ergonomic chair.
01:07:59This is real silver.
01:08:01Let me have that one.
01:08:03I cleaned this office every day and never got one word of thanks.
01:08:06Didn't you do something?
01:08:06I opened the door for her for years.
01:08:09Never a smile, never a, hey, how are you doing?
01:08:12I don't even think she knew my name.
01:08:13I did.
01:08:14It was Bill or Budge.
01:08:16Hey, Todd.
01:08:17Todd, I was getting there.
01:08:18How about we celebrate?
01:08:20Not the O2.
01:08:22In styrofoam?
01:08:24Good riddance.
01:08:25Oh, let's check out the back room.
01:08:27Here, Orton.
01:08:28Not the back room.
01:08:29Jake.
01:08:42Jake?
01:08:44Frances.
01:08:45Kind of you to come.
01:08:46Yeah.
01:08:46I certainly didn't have you.
01:08:49I wanted to.
01:08:51Thanks.
01:08:52I'm so sorry, Frances.
01:08:56I'm sorry for you too, Jake.
01:08:58They're acting like somebody died.
01:09:01Hey, how you been?
01:09:03Good.
01:09:03I've been focused.
01:09:04Good.
01:09:05On the center, you know?
01:09:06You been seeing anybody?
01:09:08Me?
01:09:08No.
01:09:09Oh, since Ella, I haven't really found that spark with anybody else.
01:09:12You will, Jake.
01:09:14You will.
01:09:15If I'm being honest.
01:09:17Stop trying.
01:09:19Long time ago.
01:09:22He gets past this, right?
01:09:27I mean, I'm flattered, but this is Jake we're talking about.
01:09:31He's basically the greatest guy ever.
01:09:36Okay, ghost, you work for me, right?
01:09:38You've got to tell me what's yet to come.
01:09:39What happens to Jake?
01:09:46The public library?
01:09:48I don't understand.
01:09:49I don't understand.
01:09:52He's the lonely librarian, like Donna Reed.
01:10:01No, no, no, no.
01:10:02No, this is too awful.
01:10:05Take me somewhere else.
01:10:07Anywhere but here, really.
01:10:09Just show me some happiness, please.
01:10:12Please.
01:10:13Please.
01:10:13So, shall we do the Christmas gratitudes?
01:10:23Wait.
01:10:25Why is Tim's chair empty?
01:10:28Bobby?
01:10:29I am grateful for her.
01:10:35Oh, sweetheart.
01:10:37Oh, I know.
01:10:38I know.
01:10:39We miss him, too.
01:10:40This is so unfair.
01:10:42I don't understand.
01:10:44Why are you showing me this?
01:10:45Yes.
01:10:49Oh.
01:10:49No, no, no, no.
01:11:18Please, tell me, is this what will happen or what might happen?
01:11:26Can I alter my destiny?
01:11:28Please, ghost.
01:11:29Please, I can change.
01:11:30I've learned from all three spirits.
01:11:32I'll do anything to prevent this future from coming to pass.
01:11:36I'll never forget kindness and charity.
01:11:39I'll always hold the meaning of Christmas in my heart.
01:11:47I'm alive.
01:11:49I'm home.
01:11:50Hello, beautiful coach lavatory.
01:11:52I love you.
01:11:53I love this mirror.
01:11:54I love it here.
01:11:57Oh, sorry.
01:11:59Wait.
01:12:00Why is everyone grabbing their stuff?
01:12:01Did we land?
01:12:02I thought we had 15 more hours till we reached Sydney.
01:12:04Lady, where in Utah?
01:12:06Utah?
01:12:06There was some issue in the cockpit, so they wanted to land and have a technician check it
01:12:10out just to be on the safe side.
01:12:12I heard the pilot spilled apple cider on the controls.
01:12:17Crikey.
01:12:18We'll have tracks.
01:12:19Didn't you hear the announcements?
01:12:20No, I must have fallen asleep.
01:12:23In the bathroom?
01:12:25What day is it today?
01:12:26December 25th.
01:12:27It's Christmas Day.
01:12:29I didn't miss it.
01:12:29Okay, did you hit your head?
01:12:30Oh, Christmas in Utah.
01:12:34My sister Frances lives in Utah.
01:12:38Merry Christmas.
01:12:41Merry Christmas.
01:12:50Merry Christmas.
01:12:51Merry Christmas.
01:12:53Oh, Oliver.
01:12:54Merry Christmas.
01:12:55I hope that Santa brings you a thousand math workbooks.
01:12:58Oh, boy.
01:12:59Me too.
01:12:59Ma, Ma, I gotta go.
01:13:01I'll keep you posted, okay?
01:13:03I love you.
01:13:03Yes.
01:13:04Can you believe this delay?
01:13:06But we didn't miss Christmas.
01:13:08Attention, passengers.
01:13:09Due to an unforeseen technical issue, this plane is grounded indefinitely.
01:13:15We will rebook you all on a new flight tomorrow, December 26th.
01:13:20Hey, what are you doing right now?
01:13:23Do you need your planning?
01:13:25Come with me to breakfast.
01:13:27It's one in the morning.
01:13:28Exactly.
01:13:30Christmas morning.
01:13:32Are you okay?
01:13:33Never been better.
01:13:35Jake, there's nothing I can do about the many Christmases that I ruined, destroyed, annihilated.
01:13:41But what I can do is take you to breakfast if you'll let me.
01:13:45Oh, uh...
01:13:46Come on!
01:13:47I'm a lot of things, but I'm better than the airplane terminal.
01:13:50Plus, duty-free is closed.
01:13:52Breakfast sounds nice.
01:13:58Yes!
01:14:01After you.
01:14:02Miss Christmas.
01:14:03Miss Christmas.
01:14:12See you, baggage claim.
01:14:13Merry Christmas.
01:14:17Merry Christmas.
01:14:18I'd love for you to help me spread some Christmas cheer.
01:14:20No!
01:14:27Don't worry.
01:14:28I'm already looking at new flights.
01:14:29I promise.
01:14:30The next flight to Sydney is tomorrow.
01:14:31What am I supposed to do tonight?
01:14:33Oh, I've found some excellent options.
01:14:35I just have to go...
01:14:36If the options are so excellent, why haven't you secured one?
01:14:40Only because we just landed, and it's the middle of the night, and choices might be limited
01:14:44because it's Christmas.
01:14:46Christmas?
01:14:48Christmas, Christmas, Christmas.
01:14:50Always an excuse for Christmas.
01:14:53I suppose you're going to tell me that I should give you a bonus, because it's Christmas.
01:14:57I didn't say that.
01:14:59Well, I'll tell you what.
01:15:02I'll do better than that.
01:15:05I am going to double your salary and give you a promotion.
01:15:08I am also going to get the best health insurance plan there is for you and everyone else at
01:15:13the company.
01:15:14One that covers all of Tim's medicine.
01:15:17You remember who Tim is?
01:15:19Of course.
01:15:20Australia can wait.
01:15:21I bought you a first-class ticket home so you can be with Tim on Christmas.
01:15:24You leave in a few hours.
01:15:26I...
01:15:26Bobby.
01:15:27I have been...
01:15:29awful.
01:15:31To you and everyone.
01:15:34And I apologize from the bottom of my heart.
01:15:38But I promise you that I am going to make it better.
01:15:41And if you keep working for me, if you keep working with me, I will make it right.
01:15:48And I will never take you for granted again.
01:15:51I don't know what to say.
01:15:53Merry Christmas, Bobby.
01:15:55Merry Christmas, Ella.
01:15:56Attention, Sydney passengers.

01:19:49What are you guys doing here?
01:19:51Together?
01:19:52It's been a long story.
01:19:55Yeah.
01:19:56Well, our flight was diverged in nearby.
01:19:58Yeah.
01:19:59And, um, well, it must have been fate,
01:20:01because I really want to spend Christmas with you.
01:20:05I haven't been the sister you deserve,
01:20:07and I can't tell you how much I regret that.
01:20:10But I don't want to be out in the cold anymore.

01:20:14Of course I'll have you.
01:20:16Yeah, will you have me, too?

01:20:23All right.
01:20:24Merry Christmas.
01:20:25Ella, I can't believe you made it.
01:20:26Me, too.
01:20:27Jake!
01:20:28Yeah?
01:20:29Buddy, what are you doing here?
01:20:30Come on in!
01:20:31No, it's a jump scare.
01:20:32Sorry, pal.
01:20:33Oh, kids!
01:20:34Get down here!
01:20:35Look who's here!
01:20:36Is it Santa?
01:20:38Even better.
01:20:39Even better.
01:20:46Tim!
01:20:47Poppy, you're home!
01:20:49Mommy!
01:20:52I knew Santa would bring you home.
01:20:56Merry Christmas, Tim.
01:20:58Merry Christmas to you, too.
01:21:00Hi, Mom.
01:21:01Hi, baby.
01:21:02Hi.
01:21:03He won't bite, I promise.
01:21:04He's all yours.
01:21:05I'm taking care of him, though, okay?
01:21:06I miss him already.
01:21:07Is that our old scarf?
01:21:08Yeah, I don't know where it came from.
01:21:09Oh.
01:21:10Must be magic.
01:21:11You have no idea.
01:21:12What happened to you on that airplane?
01:21:17The outline I saw at the airport last night's not the same.
01:21:37It's not the same.
01:21:38The Ella I saw at the airport last night
01:21:41is not the same Miss Merry Christmas that's here now.
01:21:45I don't know.
01:21:46I think maybe the Christmas spirits just did their work.
01:21:51You mean spirit?
01:21:53Hmm.
01:21:54Felt like more than one this year.
01:22:00I love you, Ella.
01:22:08I love you, too, Jake.
01:22:12I always have.
