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.
00:00:59You survived Yuletide.
00:01:01Now it's time for a little you-tide.
00:01:04There's more to life than work.
00:01:06Relax with the one you love.
00:01:09Get spirited away.
00:01:11And expect more.
00:01:13With great expectations trips.
00:01:17No.
00:01:19I expected more from all of you and if you give me any more Yuletide puns, you'll be fired.
00:01:29Let's go back to the coffee.
00:01:30Uh, but this has to go out for New Year's.
00:01:33Correct.
00:01:34You signed off on this approach.
00:01:37I tried the novel concept of delegating, but it failed.
00:01:40I'm sorry.
00:01:42Why 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.
00:01:49Uh, did you want to see, like, friends or...?
00:01:50Or someone vacationing alone.
00:01:52I'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 having 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 than the satisfaction of a job well done?
00:02:12With respect, Miss Kneezer, there isn't time.
00:02:15We can't redo the copy at this stage.
00:02:17Well, we can't, but they can.
00:02:21Here 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.
00:02:49And if 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 unless you're saying that we have to?
00:03:03No, of course not.
00:03:05Of course I'm not saying that you need to work on Christmas.
00:03:10I'm just saying that the ad has to be done in two days and I expect to see it when I land in Australia.
00:03:15But that will be the 25th for us here.
00:03:18Christmas Day.
00:03:20Well, you'll figure it out.
00:03:22Bobby.
00:03:30I have your carry-on ready to go.
00:03:31You have electrolytes, hand lotion, hand sanitizer, eye masks.
00:03:35My ruby scarf.
00:03:36Your what?
00:03:38I'll find it.
00:03:40Snacks?
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.
00:04:01I 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.
00:04:16Wow.
00:04:17I'm so sorry.
00:04:18Are you okay?
00:04:19Is this real silver?
00:04:21It's plated.
00:04:24Find 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?
00:04:42Right.
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.
00:04:59Right.
00:05:01Just get my stuff first, okay?
00:05:08Hey Fran, now's not a great time.
00:05:09And Merry Christmas to you too, sis.
00:05:22Christmas by humbug.
00:05:23Did you get the wreath I sent?
00:05:24You didn't throw it away again, did you?
00:05:25Not immediately.
00:05:26Ella Kneezer.
00:05:27It is Christmas time.
00:05:28It is the best of times.
00:05:29It's the worst of times.
00:05:30Okay, I know what will cheer you up.
00:05:31God, rusty, merry dogs and cats.
00:05:32Let's greet you with wolf meow.
00:05:33Remember all good luck.
00:05:35It's the worst of times.
00:05:37Hey, I know what will cheer you up.
00:05:38God, rusty, merry dogs and cats.
00:05:39Let's greet you with wolf meow.
00:05:41Did 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, married 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.
00:06:06Look, I don't remember the rest.
00:06:08I'm sorry, Frances. I 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. I'm sorry.
00:06:15You know, we haven't had a Christmas together
00:06:17since 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.
00:06:40Get it together, Ella.
00:06:50Oh, I'm Miss Kneezer. Hey, glad I caught you.
00:06:53Don't worry, we're working on the copy,
00:06:55but I just wanted to follow up on that message
00:06:57from Angela at Pickwick & Co. Paper on floor three.
00:07:00No?
00:07:01Anyways, she's organizing the holiday collection pool
00:07:04for the doorman, cleaning staff,
00:07:05and essential building employees.
00:07:07I sent you an email?
00:07:09Walk.
00:07:10Right, yeah.
00:07:11Anywho, a bunch of us have already chipped in,
00:07:14so 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,
00:07:23and I can't afford to make everyone else merry.
00:07:25Okay, but Miss Kneezer.
00:07:27This time of year,
00:07:29I don't have anything to give right now.
00:07:33I have to get to the airport.

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 Christmastime 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 Christmastime past, with services to memory and continued service to regret.
00:21:47Wait, do you know who I am?
00:21:49Elanizer.
00:21:49Grind Culture Queen CEO of Great Expectation Trips.
00:21:53Okay.
00:21:54Well, the first ghost, Marlene Jacobson, have you heard of her?
00:21:57She appeared on the screen.
00:21:59And so we're just going to do this right here on my seat.
00:22:02Please follow the emergency lights to the exit.
00:22:09Merry Christmas.
00:22:10No, no, no, no.
00:22:11Marlene assured me there would be no exit, so I think what's happened is we just got some wires are just getting closed.
00:22:16If we experience a sudden loss in cabin pressure, oxygen mask will be released.
00:22:19Be 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!
00:22:27No!
00:22:28No!
00:22:29I will smell your thing!
00:22:31I'm starting off!
00:22:32It's not my son!
00:22:34No!
00:22:35It's mine!
00:22:37Say it's mine!
00:22:38I'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.
00:22:58You're passed.
00:22:59It is.
00:23:00Merry Christmas.
00:23:01This is Hodges, my boarding school.
00:23:05And that's me.
00:23:08I 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, so...
00:23:28Francis and I stayed at school the entire break.
00:23:34Shh.
00:23:35It's okay.
00:23:35These are but shadows of things that have been.
00:23:41She can't hear you.
00:23:45Oh, and there's Francis.
00:23:50God rest thee, merry dogs and cats.
00:23:53Let's greet you with woof meow.
00:23:56Come on.
00:23:57Let's go sing some chaos.
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?
00:24:10Whoa!
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, the library's closing.
00:24:30Um, why...
00:24:31Why is the library closing?
00:24:34Well, see, it's Christmas Eve.
00:24:37Some people celebrate.
00:24:39And sleep in...
00:24:42...bends.
00:24:42I know you.
00:24:50And you do?
00:24:51Global markets analysis.
00:24:53Oh.
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.
00:25:02Anyway.
00:25:07It's okay.
00:25:08Never too busy to have a conversation with a...
00:25:12...cute librarian.
00:25:16Okay.
00:25:19I'm Jake.
00:25:22How a 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.
00:25:30No, please.
00:25:32Five more minutes.
00:25:35Come on.
00:25:36I'll keep studying, and you can close up.
00:25:43Okay, that was spooky.
00:25:48Is this place haunted?
00:25:54Timers.
00:25:55Lights are on timers.
00:25:57It's less exciting.
00:25:59Yeah.
00:26:02Okay.
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:15I do know something that might light you up, doll.
00:26:18I like lights.
00:26:20Great.
00:26:22Follow me.
00:26:23I 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.
00:26:45Oh.
00:26:55Thanks.
00:26:58I like the color.
00:27:00Keep it.
00:27:02Looks better on you.
00:27:04Thirsty?
00:27:04Okay, okay.
00:27:10So, what is your plan after graduation?
00:27:15Librarian'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.
00:27:28And I have a plan.
00:27:31It's just embarrassing to say it out loud.
00:27:33Oh, good.
00:27:35Do you want 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.
00:27:41One that makes it easy and efficient for people to plan unique vacations.
00:27:47That'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.
00:27:56It'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.
00:28:11I 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, um, 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.
00:28:38Wow.
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?
00:28:57We need to take a selfie.
00:28:59Oh.
00:29:00I always try to take a photo of the best part of my day.
00:29:06Look.
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.
00:29:24In so many ways.
00:29:26But technically challenged is definitely one of them.
00:29:28Okay.
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.
00:29:48There's many more Christmases to see.
00:29:58I interned here in grad school.
00:30:06That's Fez, the owner.
00:30:08This was the best office Christmas party.
00:30:10Silly, huh?
00:30:11To 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.
00:30:34Please.
00:30:39No.
00:30:40No.
00:30:41She won.
00:30:42Dance.
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 Satan comes through
00:31:37I won't be blue on Christmas
00:31:42But I was telling you
00:31:44Who was you had to play soon
00:31:45To look and hear what you were
00:31:49And He does
00:31:50You walked through
00:31:51The night that he stole
00:31:51let's buckle up it's time for a memory montage does that mean we're landing no
00:32:15but it is a descent which can cause turbulence especially when heartbreak is involved i don't
00:32:22handle turbulence well please use caution when opening your heart as articles may have shifted
00:32:26during flight what wait what are you talking about what's going on here we go you don't even know

00:33:00there's a feeling we'll do it if you dare think about it don't really care we're gonna have a
00:33:09moment that's the way to shine
00:33:11oh it's a merry merry christmas
00:33:19oh
00:33:25oh
00:33:29oh
00:33:31oh
00:33:34oh
00:33:36oh
00:33:39oh
00:33:40oh
00:33:42oh
00:33:44oh
00:33:46I 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.
00:34:17Girl tag, too much to do.
00:34:25You are now free to move about the cabin.
00:34:27Merry Christmas.
00:34:28This is Marlene's office.
00:34:29I 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.
00:34:47We must be in sync.
00:34:48A team.
00:34:49Got it.
00:34:50No problem, Miss Jacobson.
00:34:51You may call me Marlene, except when it irritates me.
00:34:54Okay.
00:34:56Miss Jacobson.
00:34:57Miss Jacobson.
00:34:58Jim?
00:34:59Is that work related?
00:35:03I'm sorry.
00:35:04I was just delivering my secret Santa gift.
00:35:07Oh.
00:35:08Is that something you need to apologize for?
00:35:10Employees 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?
00:35:19She's right.
00:35:20Oh, no.
00:35:21I was giving, not stealing.
00:35:24When it comes to the bottom line, time and money are interchangeable.
00:35:29Exceptions cannot be made.
00:35:31Certainly not for the frivolity of a sneaky Santa.
00:35:35It's actually Secret Santa.
00:35:36Is it?
00:35:37Oh.
00:35:38I'll stay late.
00:35:39I learned this lesson the hard way, Ella, but you don't have to.
00:35:59It'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.
00:36:08That sounds tough.
00:36:09It's a choice.
00:36:10It's lonely at the top, but I think you can get there.
00:36:14That means a lot.
00:36:15Thank you, Miss Jacobson.
00:36:16I told you to call me Marlene.
00:36:19You'll be on call 24-7.
00:36:21Got it.
00:36:22And I don't want to hear the words, no, I can't, or I'm otherwise engaged.
00:36:27Good.
00:36:29Distractions are the enemy of success.
00:36:31Watch and learn, kid.
00:36:33I'll teach you how to get everything you ever wanted.
00:36:43Oh, no!
00:36:44Dive 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.
00:36:51You're always on a deadline.
00:36:52Jake, I can't have this conversation again.
00:36:54I get it.
00:36:55I get it, but I...
00:36:56You don't get it!
00:36:57I'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.
00:37:05Remember?
00:37:06You wanted to travel the world.
00:37:07When's the big adventure coming?
00:37:08I'm going to.
00:37:09You 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.
00:37:17With me.
00:37:20Please don't make me relive this.
00:37:22I did.
00:37:28But I think we just want different things now.
00:37:32Okay.
00:37:47I won't stand in your way.
00:37:48I don't want to see anymore.
00:38:07There, there.
00:38:09Just one more layover.
00:38:18This is my office.
00:38:23Yes, it is.
00:38:24Last year.
00:38:25Merry Christmas.
00:38:26We cannot settle for mediocrity.
00:38:29You're dismissed.
00:38:32What?
00:38:33They under-delivered.
00:38:35Bobby!
00:38:39It's 9.38 a.m.
00:38:40I'm sorry.
00:38:41I'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.
00:38:47I had a family emergency.
00:38:50I will ask you to deal with your emergencies on your time
00:38:52and my emergencies online.
00:38:55Like?
00:38:57Do you see our listings in Iceland?
00:39:00All of the amenities include private beach.
00:39:03Is that something you're capable of fixing?
00:39:07Let me set my stuff down and I'll get right on it.
00:39:10Bobby.
00:39:13If your personal life is making this job too difficult
00:39:15for you to handle,
00:39:17perhaps you should look elsewhere.
00:39:22I'm not sure I said it quite like that.
00:39:35I know.
00:39:36I don't know.
00:39:37I-I don't know what else to do, Mom.
00:39:39How'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
00:39:45to see a sick child.
00:39:47You must be exhausted.
00:39:48I just hope he's gonna be okay.
00:39:50I don't even wanna know what that visit's gonna cost.
00:39:53Honey, honey, don't even think about that right now.
00:39:57Can you tell him I love him?
00:39:58I will.
00:39:59He loves you too.
00:40:01Who is the child?
00:40:03Is that Bobby's son?
00:40:04Is he okay?
00:40:05Why are you worried?
00:40:06She got those listings fixed before she left work that day.
00:40:09This isn't about the listings.
00:40:10This is about her child.
00:40:12Oh, that's the seatbelt sign.
00:40:14It is time to return to your seats.
00:40:17In the unlikely event of a water landing,
00:40:20remember, pull the tabs to inflate the vest
00:40:23or blow air through the tube.
00:40:25We hope you enjoyed your journey
00:40:27and thank you again for traveling with us.
00:40:29Wait, I'm not ready yet.
00:40:30What happens to her child?
00:40:32Merry Christmas!
00:40:36Ew.
00:40:38Am I in coach?
00:40:39Whoa!
00:40:47Boo!
00:40:50You good?
00:40:52What are you doing here?
00:40:53What are you doing here?
00:40:55First class was occupied.
00:40:56My boss might be...
00:40:58Okay.
00:41:00This is gonna sound a little bit zany,
00:41:01but there was this flight attendant
00:41:02and she's also a ghost
00:41:03and she took me to New York
00:41:04and you were there and then all of these memories
00:41:05came flooding back.
00:41:06Ella, Ella, breathe.
00:41:07What? What?
00:41:08Okay.
00:41:09Look, you probably had a bad dream, right?
00:41:10Right?
00:41:12Yeah.
00:41:13Good.
00:41:14Now,
00:41:15why are you wearing a life vest?
00:41:16The ghost gave it to me.
00:41:17Okay.
00:41:18Why don't we talk about this back of the seats,
00:41:19or at least not in the bathroom?
00:41:20Yeah.
00:41:21Yeah?
00:41:24Because I need to use the bathroom.
00:41:25Why do you have a life vest?
00:41:26I really wish I knew.
00:41:27Please do not play with the emergency equipment.
00:41:28I'm...
00:41:29It compromises the safety of the crew and passengers.
00:41:30I won't.
00:41:31And I'm sorry.
00:41:32may I please have something to eat?
00:41:33may I please have something to eat?
00:41:34I've changed my mind about the gewildavish stick feast.
00:41:35Okay.
00:41:37Excellent.
00:41:38Excellent.
00:41:39Why do you have a light vest?
00:41:44I really wish I knew.
00:41:46Please do not play with the emergency equipment.
00:41:49I'm...
00:41:49It compromises the safety of the crew and passengers.
00:41:54I won't.
00:41:56And I'm sorry.
00:41:59May I please have something to eat?
00:42:01I've changed my mind about the Gevil-de-Vish-Stick feast.
00:42:05Excellent.
00:42:07Can I get you anything to drink?
00:42:09Beer? Wine? Spirits?
00:42:10No.
00:42:11No spirits. Just the Gevil-de-Vish.
00:42:15Excellent.
00:42:17And...
00:42:18Hands off.
00:42:21Feeling better?
00:42:23A little, I think.
00:42:25Listen, Jake...
00:42:26I wanted to say I'm sorry.
00:42:27You're sorry?
00:42:28Yeah, I 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, I have been thinking...
00:42:35Also, I could change seats if you still want me to.
00:42:37No, Jake.
00:42:39I've been thinking.
00:42:43And I wanted to say that I realized there were quite a few Christmases where my work may have detracted from the holiday.
00:42:56Mispronounced. Ruined?
00:42:58Okay, tomato, tomato.
00:42:59Destroyed? Annihilated?
00:43:00Yeah, fine. That...
00:43:02What I want to say is...
00:43:06I really think I could have managed things better.
00:43:11Thanks for saying that.
00:43:17A few years late, but...
00:43:21Yeah.
00:43:21Yeah.
00:43:21Are you still making those holiday photo gifts?
00:43:34Behold.
00:43:35The calendar.
00:43:37Oh, wow.
00:43:37Yeah.
00:43:38It sure looks like something a mother would love.
00:43:42You mean only a mother would love?
00:43:44I didn't say that.
00:43:45You're saying it with your eyes.
00:43:46No.
00:43:47I mean, it was implied, but...
00:43:48I didn't say it.
00:43:53Sure.
00:43:53Please, sir.
00:43:57May I have some more?
00:44:02More?
00:44:03Math problems.
00:44:04Oh.
00:44:07Coming up.
00:44:08Where is my food?
00:44:19It's first class, I'm sure.
00:44:22It'll be coming soon.
00:44:23Mm-hmm.
00:44:24There you are.
00:44:39I was just looking for a place to pin these.
00:44:42Incoming!
00:44:43Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:44:45Hey.
00:44:46Matchies.
00:44:47Pinsy twinsies.
00:44:49Would you like to be my co-pilot for a bit?
00:44:51Oh, no, actually, I was just looking for some food.
00:44:54Oh, I've got just the thing.
00:44:56You must be famished after all that zipping about you've done tonight.
00:45:00Excuse me?
00:45:01Ghost of Christmas present.
00:45:03Let's kick the tires and light the fires.
00:45:05Ha-ha!
00:45:09What the dickens?
00:45:16This is the cockpit?
00:45:18Oh, yeah.
00:45:19Let's start with dessert.
00:45:22What are you keen on, huh?
00:45:24We've got Yule log, fruitcake, apple pie, Vegemite.
00:45:30Oh, figgy pudding, chocolate pudding, cherry pudding, toffee pudding.
00:45:34That's a lot of pudding.
00:45:35And pavlova.
00:45:37Okay, but let's get things started here.
00:45:39No, we've got to savor all the moments.
00:45:43We do?
00:45:44You're such a cute little umbug.
00:45:46When do we start to see the visions?
00:45:47Ah.
00:45:50Presently.
00:45:52What?
00:45:53Wait.
00:45:55Don't we take the emergency exit?
00:45:57No, that's how the spirits did it in the past.
00:46:00You're with the present now.
00:46:02Hold it.
00:46:05Well, you better buckle up.
00:46:07Visions are present and near present incoming.
00:46:10Are you sure you want to put that on the equipment?
00:46:12Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:46:19Where are we?
00:46:20I don't remember this place.
00:46:22No, of course you don't.
00:46:23This is the present, silly.
00:46:25Yeah, all of this is actually happening right now in real time.
00:46:28Those are my get employees.
00:46:30Yeah, I know.
00:46:31I'm on mission.
00:46:32Well, why aren't they working?
00:46:33They have a commercial to finish.
00:46:36Four calling birds.
00:46:38Three French pens.
00:46:39Two turtledoves.
00:46:41And a partridge in a fair tree.
00:46:44Woo!
00:46:45Why is everyone always singing that song?
00:46:48Eggnog.
00:46:49Now you're drinking on the job?
00:46:51No, it's virgin.
00:46:52So just egg and cream?
00:46:53And nutmeg.
00:46:55All right, here's to our fourth annual get office Christmas party.
00:46:59Cheers!
00:47:00I didn't approve an office Christmas party.
00:47:02They'd better not submit for reimbursement.
00:47:04It's a good thing that we all plan our own
00:47:05because there is no way that Krampus would ever approve one.
00:47:08What's a Krampus?
00:47:09Oh, it's a horned beast.
00:47:11Of course.
00:47:12Man.
00:47:13Wait, me?
00:47:14I'm the horned beast?
00:47:16Who likes to punish people?
00:47:17Of course.
00:47:17Giving us a holiday party with me and acknowledging our value.
00:47:20She'd never do that.
00:47:21Nope.
00:47:22Parties are a cost inefficient way to promote team bonding.
00:47:25Plus, some people find them very awkward.
00:47:27Hmm.
00:47:28And some people should just listen.
00:47:30She treats us like we're beggars in Victorian London.
00:47:34Exactly.
00:47:35I thought she'd respond to our heat request by giving us coal.
00:47:38Yes.
00:47:38Mine by orphans.
00:47:40Totally.
00:47:40She has no idea how unappreciated we feel.
00:47:44But you know what, guys?
00:47:44It's Christmas Eve.
00:47:45Let's not focus on the bad.
00:47:46I mean, she haunts us when she's not even here.
00:47:49I didn't know they thought that.
00:47:51No, no.
00:47:51They think they're present tense.
00:47:54Huh?
00:47:55No.
00:47:55Can't all be hits.
00:47:58I expect a lot from them, but I want this company to succeed.
00:48:03I thought that made me a good boss.
00:48:05Oh.
00:48:06What do you think now?
00:48:08Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:48:08Guys, hold up.
00:48:09You won't believe this.
00:48:10Bobby just texted that Krampus used to be engaged.
00:48:13No way.
00:48:14I mean, I'm assuming he left her.
00:48:17I'm just saying.
00:48:18Everyone will leave her eventually.
00:48:19I know I will.
00:48:20I am getting out the first chance I get.
00:48:23There it is.
00:48:24All right, now let's get some dessert.
00:48:28Crikey.
00:48:28This is depressing, eh?
00:48:30Can we go back to the plane now?
00:48:31Yeah, nah.
00:48:33Heaps more to see.
00:48:34But we can get some food in, yeah?
00:48:36Not hungry.
00:48:37Oh, well, more for me.
00:48:41Stolen the flame and cries.
00:48:43Jury is, Paul.
00:48:44This is Francis' house.
00:48:45Everyone start, please.
00:48:48We were waiting for you.
00:48:49Everything looks amazing.
00:48:51So your sister couldn't make it?
00:48:53No.
00:48:54No, she's traveling for work.
00:48:56I heard there was a parade that needed to be rained on.
00:49:00Bubble that need to burst in.
00:49:01Party that needed pooping.
00:49:04I thought it was just Christmas she had a problem with.
00:49:06Christmas, joy, love, the basics.
00:49:08Kevin, don't say that.
00:49:10She doesn't have a problem with love.
00:49:13Tell that to Jay.
00:49:14They broke up at Christmas, so it's a difficult holiday for her.
00:49:18It's not just that.
00:49:19She is the antithesis of Christmas.
00:49:21That's not fair.
00:49:22That's not fair.
00:49:23It's not?
00:49:23It's not?
00:49:24No.
00:49:26Ella, she's put up a wall for reasons I can't explain.
00:49:31But I still hope she'll change.
00:49:36She's my sister.
00:49:38We got each other through a lot of tough times when we were young.
00:49:42I love her.
00:49:43And I'm sad that she's not here.
00:49:46And I'm sad for her.
00:49:48Because she is missing out on a very joyous Christmas.
00:49:52Especially with you wonderful people here.
00:49:58Merry Christmas.
00:49:59Merry Christmas.
00:49:59Merry Christmas, everyone.
00:50:01My favorite.
00:50:06Hello.
00:50:07Polar Express.
00:50:08Batman Returns.
00:50:10Waddling on ice.
00:50:11It's Batman Returns.
00:50:13Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:50:14A Garfield Christmas.
00:50:15What?
00:50:15Time's up.
00:50:18Batman Returns.
00:50:20Obviously.
00:50:21Wasn't it supposed to be a Christmas movie?
00:50:23It is a Christmas movie.
00:50:28Okay, you're up.
00:50:30Oh, boy.
00:50:31Here we go.
00:50:32Ella would have known that.
00:50:33I did.
00:50:35I feel really bad about what I said earlier.
00:50:38Yeah, you should.
00:50:38And I just want to make a toast to Ella Neaser.
00:50:42May she be having a very Merry Christmas wherever she is.
00:50:47Probably somewhere above Ohio.
00:50:51Well, we're thinking of you, Ella.
00:50:53May you have a very Merry Christmas above the clouds.
00:50:56She wouldn't take it, but may she have it nonetheless.
00:50:59To Ella.
00:51:01Time to go.
00:51:02I don't want to be responsible for any flight delays, okay?
00:51:06All right, I've been working on this one all year, okay?
00:51:08All right.
00:51:08It's two words.
00:51:09Two words.
00:51:09It's a movie.
00:51:10Okay.
00:51:11And...
00:51:12Do more.
00:51:13It's two words.
00:51:14Okay, don't.
00:51:16I can't remember the last time I had this much fun.
00:51:19Sounds like...
00:51:20Looks like us, eh?
00:51:35I don't know this place.
00:51:38Hot Chalky!
00:51:39Wait, where are we?
00:51:40What are we doing here?
00:51:42I don't recognize it.
00:51:43Oh.
00:51:45This is Jake's charity.
00:51:47Yeah, isn't this sweet as...
00:51:49Jake's throwing his party so all these kids can have a bit of fun after school with Santa.
00:51:53All right, you little legends who want some Christmas stuff.
00:51:55Yes.
00:51:56All right, here we go.
00:51:58Oh, hey, buddy.
00:51:59You want some?
00:52:00Now, his mentoring program has improved the lives of children who've been exposed to a whole host of disadvantages.
00:52:05It's the most impactful new youth charity of the last five years.
00:52:10Break that hand.
00:52:11It's dainty.
00:52:11Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:52:12Golly, no, he's doing good work.
00:52:15But working in non-profit can be harder than working in the private sector.
00:52:18Charity, it's often overlooked, even by those with means.
00:52:24Wow, ha, ha, ha.
00:52:29This is beautiful.
00:52:30Lucy.
00:52:31Who's Lucy?
00:52:32Hey, glad I ran into you.
00:52:35Same.
00:52:36Do we have more hats?
00:52:37Sure.
00:52:38That's Paul, our friend from Hampstead University.
00:52:40Why not?
00:52:41Any chance you, uh, you want to grab lunch with me after we wrap up?
00:52:45Oh, uh, I can't.
00:52:46I'm sorry.
00:52:47I can't.
00:52:48I can't.
00:52:49I'm sorry.
00:52:50I can't.
00:52:51I can't.
00:52:52I'm sorry.
00:52:53I can't.
00:52:54I can't.
00:52:55I can't.
00:52:56I can't.
00:52:57I can't.
00:52:58I can't.
00:52:59I can't.
00:53:00I can't.
00:53:01I can't.
00:53:02I can't.
00:53:03I can't.
00:53:04I can't.
00:53:05Of course.
00:53:06You must have plans.
00:53:07It's Christmas Eve and all.
00:53:08She doesn't want to.
00:53:10Take a hint.
00:53:11I just have a lot to do before my flight tonight.
00:53:14Oh, that means you're missing Christmas.
00:53:17What a sacrifice.
00:53:19Okay, she's laying it on pretty thick.
00:53:22Okay, you had your chance with Jake.
00:53:25Didn't past cover that.
00:53:29Let me know if you find those hats.
00:53:30Of course.
00:53:31Yes.
00:53:32And don't worry, I'll get them to the kids.
00:53:35But, uh, I'll hold you to that lunch when you're back.
00:53:40Looks like you got something to look forward to in the new year.
00:53:44What are we talking about?
00:53:45What's he talking about?
00:53:46Lunch with Lucy.
00:53:47You should go.
00:53:49You haven't seriously dated in, like, what, a decade?
00:53:52A decade or less.
00:53:53You deserve to be happy, man.
00:53:55I'm happy.
00:53:56Is he happy?
00:53:57Hmm.
00:53:58I'm happy.
00:53:59Come on.
00:54:00Look how happy I am.
00:54:01All right, well, think about going out with her when you come back.
00:54:04Yep.
00:54:05Thinking about it.
00:54:06It's time to move on.
00:54:07Ready to head next door?
00:54:08Please.
00:54:09I'm starving.
00:54:10Yes.
00:54:11Dive bar Christmas.
00:54:12Here we come.
00:54:13Okay, so that's Jake.
00:54:14Yeah.
00:54:15What now?
00:54:16Where's your yoke?
00:54:17Oh, no need.
00:54:18No, just a quick walkabout.
00:54:19Okay.
00:54:20Come on.
00:54:21Gotta get those steps in.
00:54:22Nifty, huh?
00:54:23You got this.
00:54:24I can't believe they still do dive bar Christmas.
00:54:41You got this.
00:54:43I can't believe they still do dive bar Christmas.
00:54:46Prisons! I love it.
00:54:48It's the white elephant tradition we started in grad school.
00:54:52Exchanging useless gifts in a cozy bar in the middle of the workday.
00:54:55Yeah, it sounds like everything you despise.
00:54:58Sorry, dude.
00:54:59What?
00:55:00Dive bar!
00:55:00Oh, you know I love the best!
00:55:02I got some more footage.
00:55:03Savage.
00:55:07It's us.
00:55:08The very first dive bar Christmas.
00:55:11You look so young and happy.
00:55:14Yeah, we do.
00:55:16Even Ella.
00:55:18Yeah.
00:55:20I ran into her the other day.
00:55:25You did?
00:55:26It was such a bummer.
00:55:27She just seemed so annoyed and sad and lonely.
00:55:35Oh.
00:55:36You don't sound so disappointed.
00:55:38Serves her right after how she treated you.
00:55:39Okay.
00:55:42I can't watch this anymore.
00:55:44What, what?
00:55:44Just a tick?
00:55:45I gotta go.
00:55:46Pack my bags.
00:55:47All right?
00:55:47All right.
00:55:48Send pics from down under.
00:55:50Hey, that's my exit.
00:55:51Will do.
00:55:52Love you guys.
00:55:53Merry Christmas.
00:55:53Merry Christmas.
00:55:55Well, just one layover en route to our last stop.
00:55:59Fine, let's go.
00:56:00Really?
00:56:01Really?
00:56:02No objections?
00:56:03No snark?
00:56:05Not even a humbug.
00:56:08Hey.
00:56:09This way.
00:56:10What is it?
00:56:15I can't believe he still lives here.
00:56:18He hasn't changed a thing.
00:56:22Wait, why did he decorate for Christmas if he knew he wasn't going to be here?
00:56:25Well, I suppose Christmas still means something to him.
00:56:28Oh, my God.
00:56:30Wearing revenge.
00:56:32No shame.
00:56:33Goodman.
00:56:34Goodman.
00:56:41Poor man.
00:56:42Merry Christmas, Ella.
00:57:05Wherever you are.
00:57:10I'm right here.
00:57:12It's time to go.
00:57:34I'm right here.
00:57:41Ghost!
00:57:43Ghost!
00:57:44Hey!
00:57:45Hey!
00:57:45Can't we go back to the plane?
00:57:47I want to talk to Jake.
00:57:48Sorry, mate.
00:57:49We've got to stay present.
00:57:50I don't think this is my present.
00:57:52Well, you have to see how your choices affect others, even indirectly.
00:57:56Well, whose house is this?
00:57:57Come.
00:57:59We're on our final approach.
00:58:00Can I just float through the door?
00:58:03No.
00:58:05You just walk through it.
00:58:07Oh.
00:58:08Mortals.
00:58:10I'm going to Australia with Mommy.
00:58:12Slow down, Tim.
00:58:14I can't.
00:58:14My plane is performing a tail slide.
00:58:17That's such a beautiful chicken, Mom.
00:58:19Bobby's recipe.
00:58:20Oh, this is Bobby's family.
00:58:22This plane has eight reindeer power.
00:58:24And Tim is Bobby's son, of course.
00:58:27Poor Timmy.
00:58:28Bobby should have been able to be here.
00:58:30It is a crime for a mother to have to miss Christmas with her child.
00:58:33Not that Krampus cares.
00:58:34They call me Krampus here, too?
00:58:36Oh, yeah.
00:58:36Yeah.
00:58:38Tim?
00:58:40Timmy?
00:58:40We were telling you not to run around like that, Tim.
00:58:42Hey, don't scold him.
00:58:43Get his inhaler.
00:58:44I know.
00:58:44Come on.
00:58:45Let's go, Mom.
00:58:45Over here.
00:58:46There you go.
00:58:47That's it.
00:58:47Give me this, Tim.
00:58:48All right.
00:58:49One hug.
00:58:51It's okay, buddy.
00:58:52All right.
00:58:53We have your finger.
00:58:54There we go.
00:58:56He's at 95.
00:58:58Is that good?
00:58:59Yeah.
00:59:00When it goes below that, I usually need to take him to the doctor.
00:59:03I thought his new maintenance drug was supposed to prevent him from having his episodes.
00:59:07There is a new one.
00:59:08We can try, but it's...
00:59:10Not covered?
00:59:11Hey, it's Christmas, and we're not spending it in the ER this year.
00:59:15That is a blessing.
00:59:16Mm-hmm.
00:59:16That's true.
00:59:17Mm-hmm.
00:59:18Blessing.
00:59:19Oh.
00:59:21That's Bobby.
00:59:23Hey, honey.
00:59:24Did you make the plane?
00:59:26So, Tim has asthma.
00:59:28Is it bad?
00:59:30Well, they're still trying to figure out the right treatment.
00:59:33Bobby's paycheck mostly goes to out-of-pocket medical expenses, which is why she still has
00:59:37to live at her mother's.
00:59:38She is a self-absorbed tyrant.
00:59:40Mom, I'm lucky to have a job that lets me support Tim.
00:59:44But he needs you, too.
00:59:45I want to be there.
00:59:46Believe me, I'm devastated to be missing Christmas.
00:59:49Bobby should have told me about all this before she agreed to skip Christmas.
00:59:53Agreed?
00:59:54Is that what she did?
00:59:55Oh.
00:59:56What good would it have done to tell you, eh?
00:59:58What's that you said?
01:00:00Oh, yeah, here it is.
01:00:02Ah, I don't make merry at Christmas, and I can't afford to make everyone else merry.
01:00:07Huh?
01:00:08See that?
01:00:08It's right there in me hand.
01:00:09I asked Santa to bring you back for Christmas morning.
01:00:13Oh, honey, Santa can't bring...
01:00:16I need your tablet charger.
01:00:18Hey, that's you.
01:00:19And your neck pillow.
01:00:21Yeah, I don't like hearing my own voice, either.
01:00:24It's always a bit higher than you think.
01:00:26Ahem.
01:00:30Before we start, shall we do Christmas gratitudes?
01:00:34Well, I'm grateful for this feast.
01:00:35Oh, I am grateful for all of you.
01:00:39I'm grateful for Miss Kneezer.
01:00:41You don't have to be grateful for everything, Tim.
01:00:44Yeah, she's the reason your mommy isn't here.
01:00:47But she gives mommy a good job, and that lets her buy medicine, which makes me feel better.
01:00:57To Miss Kneezer.
01:00:59I hope she is happy.
01:01:01Hmm?
01:01:02To Miss Kneezer.
01:01:04Return to your seats.
01:01:06No.
01:01:07This is the end of our journey, love.
01:01:09Thank you for your presence.
01:01:11Hold on.
01:01:11What happens to Tim?
01:01:16If these visions remain unaltered by the future,
01:01:21I see an empty chair where Tiny Tim once sat.
01:01:28It's a blessing, folks.
01:01:32What?
01:01:33No.
01:01:33No, no, no, no.
01:01:35No, no, wait.
01:01:37Wait.
01:01:39Hey.
01:01:40Spirits.
01:01:41Just pull me back in my seat next time, okay?
01:01:43Okay?
01:01:47Are you okay in there?
01:01:49I'm okay in there.
01:02:14Can I help you?
01:02:42Everyone else is sleeping.
01:02:46I hope the pilot's awake.
01:02:48He's probably eating.
01:02:51Wait, what?
01:03:04There's something you want to say.
01:03:07Will you please tell me more about this talk you're giving?
01:03:11Overcoming isolation through mentorship.
01:03:14Did I mention that?
01:03:16Uh, Sarah did. I ran into her.
01:03:19Oh, right.
01:03:21Let's see.
01:03:23We provide after-school care and support for about 50,000 kids in the tri-state area.
01:03:31It's just a drop of the bucket.
01:03:33Our goal is to be in every major city in the world one day.
01:03:38Gofty, Lionel.
01:03:40You can do it. I believe in you.
01:03:43Thanks.
01:03:45For real.
01:03:46I'm 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...
01:04:04It's hard, you know?
01:04:06Because everyone around me is wishing me a Merry Christmas, but...
01:04:11I just haven't felt...
01:04:14Merry since...
01:04:21It's been a long time.
01:04:23It's never too late to change.
01:04:40Probably get some sleep.
01:04:43Still got a long way to go.
01:04:48Good night.
01:04:51Good night.
01:04:56Good night.
01:05:15Can I help you?
01:05:18You're a Marshal.
01:05:22Ghost of Christmas yet to come.
01:05:25Oh boy.
01:05:30You'll tell me what will happen in Christmas's yet to come?
01:05:41Oh no.
01:05:57So you don't want me to open the door?
01:05:59Okay. Okay.
01:06:00Uh...
01:06:01Well, just before we get going, um...
01:06:03In the end, if it's not too much trouble, do you think you can put me back in my seat instead of the lavatory?
01:06:07Why, why, why, why, why are you pointing at me?
01:06:11Whoa.
01:06:14Well, my office building is still here in the future.
01:06:17That's good news.
01:06:21You're omniscient too, right? Just to be clear.
01:06:23Look, I'm not trying to tell you how to do your job.
01:06:27And I'm certainly not complaining because the last two ghosts were a little too chatty, if you know what I mean.
01:06:31But I think it could really help if you had some commentary or guidance for me, you know?
01:06:37Seems you're not open to notes and I respect that.
01:06:47Sir!
01:06:49Sir!
01:06:52Oh, is it warm in here?
01:06:54Did 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.
01:07:00And I don't have a lot of experience being nervous, but you are just sober.
01:07:05Okay?
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 they don't expect anyone to come.
01:07:15Who are they talking about?
01:07:16Still, don't you feel like a little bad? I mean, shouldn't we be mourning or something?
01:07:21I am mourning. I never call the recommendation letter.
01:07:26Hey!
01:07:27Isn't that Ms. Sneezer's scarf?
01:07:28Is 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.
01:07:40Wait, wait, wait. Who are they talking about?
01:07:42Wait!
01:07:46Hey!
01:07:47Put the vase down!
01:07:49Why are they packing up my office?
01:07:51Hey, this is my stuff! Stop!
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.
01:08:06Can't you do something?
01:08:07I 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.
01:08:15It was Bill or Budge.
01:08:17Todd!
01:08:18Todd! I was getting there.
01:08:19How 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.
01:08:27Yeah, pardon.
01:08:28Not the back room.
01:08:29Jake.
01:08:30Jake?
01:08:31Frances.
01:08:32Kind of you to come.
01:08:33Yeah.
01:08:34I certainly didn't have a deal.
01:08:35I wanted to.
01:08:36Thanks.
01:08:37I'm so sorry.
01:08:38Frances.
01:08:39I'm sorry for you too, Jake.
01:08:40They're acting like somebody died.
01:08:41Hey, how you been?
01:08:42Good.
01:08:43I've been focused.
01:08:44Good.
01:08:45On the center, you know.
01:08:46You've been seeing anybody?
01:08:47Me?
01:08:48No.
01:08:49No.
01:08:50No.
01:08:51No.
01:08:52No.
01:08:53No.
01:08:54No.
01:08:55No.
01:08:56No.
01:08:57No.
01:08:58No.
01:08:59No.
01:09:00No.
01:09:01No.
01:09:02No.
01:09:03No.
01:09:04No.
01:09:05No.
01:09:06No.
01:09:07No.
01:09:08No.
01:09:09No.
01:09:10Since Ella, I haven't really found that spark with anybody else.
01:09:13You will, Jake.
01:09:14You will.
01:09:15If I'm being honest.
01:09:18Stop trying.
01:09:19Long time ago.
01:09:26He 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?
01:09:47The public library?
01:09:48I don't understand.
01:09:55He's the lonely librarian.
01:09:58Like Donna Reed?
01:09:59No.
01:10:00No.
01:10:01No.
01:10:02No.
01:10:03No.
01:10:04No.
01:10:05No.
01:10:06This is too awful.
01:10:07Take me somewhere else.
01:10:08Anywhere but here.
01:10:09Really?
01:10:10Just show me some happiness, please.
01:10:12Please!
01:10:13Please!
01:10:14No.
01:10:15No.
01:10:16No.
01:10:17No!
01:10:19Soโฆ
01:10:20No!
01:10:21No.
01:10:22No.
01:10:23No.
01:10:24No.
01:10:25No.
01:10:26No.
01:10:27Auntie?
01:10:29Bobby?
01:10:31I am grateful for...
01:10:35Oh, sweetheart.
01:10:37Oh, I know. I know.
01:10:39We miss him, too.
01:10:41This is so unfair.
01:10:43I don't understand. Why are you showing me this?
01:10:57No, no, no, no!
01:11:19Please, tell me.
01:11:23Is this what will happen or what might happen?
01:11:26Can I alter my destiny?
01:11:28Please, boss. Please, 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.
01:11:40I'll always hold the meaning of Christmas in my heart.
01:11:46Thank you. I'm alive. I'm home.
01:11:50Hello, beautiful coach lavatory.
01:11:52I love you. I love this mirror.
01:11:54I love it here.
01:11:56Oh, sorry.
01:11:58Wait.
01:12:00Why is everyone grabbing their stuff? Did we land?
01:12:02I thought we had 15 more hours till we reached Sydney.
01:12:04Lady, where in Utah?
01:12:06Utah?
01:12:07There was some issue in the cockpit so they wanted to land and have a technician check it out just to be on the safe side.
01:12:12I heard the pilot spilled apple cider on the controls.
01:12:16Crikey.
01:12:18We have tracks.
01:12:19Didn't you hear the announcements?
01:12:20No, I must have fallen asleep.
01:12:22In the bathroom?
01:12:24What day is it today?
01:12:26December 25th.
01:12:27It's Christmas Day.
01:12:28I didn't miss it.
01:12:29Okay, did you hit your head?
01:12:30Christmas in Utah.
01:12:33My sister Frances lives in Utah.
01:12:36Merry Christmas.
01:12:38Merry Christmas.
01:12:41Merry Christmas.
01:12:50Merry Christmas.
01:12:51Merry Christmas.
01:12:52Oh, Oliver.
01:12:54Merry Christmas.
01:12:55I hope that Santa brings you a thousand math workbooks.
01:12:58Oh boy, me too.
01:12:59Ma.
01:13:00Ma.
01:13:01I gotta go.
01:13:02I'll keep you posted.
01:13:03Okay?
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.
01:13:21Hey, what are you doing right now?
01:13:24Do you need your planning?
01:13:25Come with me to breakfast.
01:13:27It's one in the morning.
01:13:29Exactly.
01:13:30Christmas morning.
01:13:32Are you okay?
01:13:33Never been better.
01:13:34Jake, there's nothing I can do about the many Christmases that I ruined, destroyed,
01:13:40annihilated.
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.
01:13:57Breakfast sounds nice.
01:13:58Yes!
01:13:59After you.
01:14:00Miss Christmas.
01:14:01After you.
01:14:02Miss Christmas.
01:14:03See a baggage claim.
01:14:04Merry Christmas.
01:14:05I'd love for you to help me spread some Christmas cheer.
01:14:08Don't worry, I'm already looking at new flights.
01:14:09I promise.
01:14:10The next flight to Sydney is tomorrow.
01:14:11What am I supposed to do tonight?
01:14:12Oh, I've found some excellent options.
01:14:13I just have to...
01:14:14If the options are so excellent, why haven't you secured one?
01:14:15Only because we just landed, and it's the middle of the night.
01:14:16And choices might be limited because it's not kind of easy.
01:14:17Any options don't make any sense.
01:14:18I'll wait to go.
01:14:19Oh, let's go.
01:14:20And you have to wait.
01:14:21Okay, what did you do?
01:14:22I'll wait to go.
01:14:23Why are you supposed to go to Sydney?
01:14:24I was supposed to go to Sydney, and I'll go to Sydney, and you'll be sleeping in
01:14:25the evening.
01:14:26That's the last year.
01:14:27Don't worry. I'm already looking at new flights. I promise. The next flight to Sydney is tomorrow.
01:14:31What am I supposed to do tonight?
01:14:33Oh, I found some excellent options. I just have to...
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 because it's Christmas.
01:14:46Christmas? Christmas, Christmas, Christmas. Always an excuse for Christmas.
01:14:53I suppose you're going to tell me that I should give you a bonus.
01:14:56Yes, because it's Christmas.
01:14:58I didn't say that.
01:14:59Well, I'll tell you what. I'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 the company.
01:15:14One that covers all of Tim's medicine.
01:15:17You remember who Tim is?
01:15:19Of course. Australia can wait.
01:15:21I bought you a first class ticket home so you can be with Tim on Christmas. You leave in a few hours.
01:15:25I am.
01:15:27Bobby, I have been awful to you and everyone.
01:15:35And I apologize from the bottom of my heart.
01:15:37But I promise you that I am going to make it better.
01:15:42And 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.
01:16:02We just learned that a Christmas angel has offered to calm everyone's room at Five Golden Rings Luxury Resort until flights can be rebooked.
01:16:11Come get your get vouchers from Great Expectations Trips.
01:16:14Oh, I get it.
01:16:21So will you give Frances a heads up that you're coming for Christmas?
01:16:27No.
01:16:28Surprises are great.
01:16:30Okay, what's going on here?
01:16:31What do you mean?
01:16:32For someone who is excited to skip Christmas, you seem pretty thrilled for the change of plans.
01:16:39Yeah, I am.
01:16:44Jake, seeing you tonight made me realize what my future could look like if I don't change my priorities.
01:16:49I used to think that if I was successful, if I had money, that I would be happy.
01:16:56But I'm not.
01:16:59I wanted to be self-sufficient, to not rely on anyone.
01:17:07But the thing is, if you don't need anyone, you don't have anyone.
01:17:13And I don't want to go through my life alone.
01:17:15I think what I'm trying to say is, I don't want to go through my life without you, Jake.
01:17:30And I don't know if it's just because it's Christmas or just that weird thing that happens at high altitude.
01:17:38But I can finally see how wrong I was.
01:17:47I'm so sorry, Jake.
01:17:50I'm so sorry.
01:17:53And I'm ready to change.
01:17:56I promise I will.
01:17:58I'm pretty sure this was...
01:18:23If I knew you'd be mine for always, I won't be blue on the earth.
01:18:35I missed you.
01:18:37I missed you, too.
01:18:38If old Saint Nick comes through, and he remembers that I'd like you for Christmas, New Year's Easter, too.
01:18:57New Year's Easter, too.
01:19:27New Year's Easter, too.
01:19:33I'm coming!

01:19:40A beautiful Christmas, Francis!
01:19:46Jake!
01:19:47Hi.
01:19:48What are you guys doing here?
01:19:50Together?
01:19:51It's kind of a long story.
01:19:52It's kind of a long story.
01:19:53It's kind of a long story.
01:19:54Yeah.
01:19:55Well, our flight was to Burden nearby.
01:19:57Yeah.
01:19:58And, um, well, it must have been fate, because I really want to spend Christmas with you.
01:20:04I haven't been the sister you deserve, and I can't tell you how much I regret that.
01:20:10But I don't want to be out in the cold anymore.
01:20:12Will you have me?
01:20:13Of course I'll have you.
01:20:14Yeah.
01:20:15Will you have me, too?
01:20:16Yeah.
01:20:17Well, you have me, too.
01:20:18Yeah.
01:20:19Merry Christmas.
01:20:20Let's come in.
01:20:21Ella, I can't believe you made it.
01:20:22Me, too.
01:20:23Jake!
01:20:24Yeah?
01:20:25Buddy, what are you doing here?
01:20:26Come on in.
01:20:27No, it's a jump scare.
01:20:28Sorry, pal.
01:20:29Oh, kids, get down here.
01:20:30Look who's here.
01:20:31Is it Santa?
01:20:32Even better.
01:20:33Tim.
01:20:34Poppy, you're home.
01:20:35Mommy!
01:20:36I knew Santa would bring you home.
01:20:38Merry Christmas.
01:20:39I'm sorry.
01:20:40I'm sorry.
01:20:41I'm sorry.

01:20:57Merry Christmas to him.
01:20:58Merry Christmas to you, too.
01:20:59Yeah.
01:21:00Hi, Mom.
01:21:01Hi, Mom.
01:21:02Hi, baby.
01:21:03Hi.
01:21:04Hey, well, bud, I promise.
01:21:05He's all yours.
01:21:06I'm taking care of him, though, okay?
01:21:07I miss him already.
01:21:08Is that our old scarf?
01:21:09Yeah, I don't know where it came from.
01:21:11Oh.
01:21:12Must be magic.
01:21:13Mm-hmm.
01:21:14You have no idea.
01:21:15What happened to you on that airplane?
01:21:17The outlet I saw at the airport last night is not the same Miss Merry Christmas that's
01:21:19here now.
01:21:20Mm-hmm.
01:21:21I don't know.
01:21:22I don't know.
01:21:23I think maybe the Christmas spirits just did their work.
01:21:27I don't know where it came from.
01:21:28Oh.
01:21:29Must be magic.
01:21:30You have no idea.
01:21:31What happened to you on that airplane?
01:21:35The outlet I saw at the airport last night is not the same Miss Merry Christmas that's

01:21:43Mm-hmm.
01:21:44I don't know.
01:21:45I think maybe the Christmas spirits just did their work.
01:21:50You mean spirit?
01:21:52Mm-hmm.
01:21:53I felt like more than one this year.
01:21:56I love you, Ella.
01:22:03I love you, Jake.
