00:00Where'd you sneak off to?
00:09Sneak off to? No, I just had to make a call.
00:11Oh. I thought you said you were grateful to have this time off.
00:15I am grateful. Forrest is closed. I'm off the hook.
00:17I was talking to Kitty on the mission.
00:20Oh, good.
00:21I'll set for tomorrow to help him.
00:22Yeah, that's important. We have to give back, right?
00:26That's what the holidays are all about.
00:30What? What's going on? You okay?
00:34Yeah. I'm okay. I'm just, I'm worried about Dad.
00:38This can't be easy for him, you know, getting to the spirit of the season.
00:41He's not a dead forester anymore.
00:43Wow. This place looks so amazing.
01:02So jolly.
01:04Oh, Eric, I know how much this holiday means to you.
01:07And can I tell you, I am so excited to host the family gathering tomorrow.
01:11It's...
01:12Hello?
01:15Aren't you?
01:18Donna, look, I...
01:19I appreciate everything that you put into all this.
01:23It's beautiful, but I...
01:25I don't think I'm really into it this year.
01:28Now I see why you needed help with the decorations.
01:46I gotta make sure the mistletoe works, right?
01:49Mom, Mom, can you make Christmas cookies?
01:57Christmas?
01:58Christmas icing.
01:59We want to take the cookies to Granddad's tomorrow.
02:02Can we?
02:04I think we can do that.
02:06That'll make the party even more special.
02:08We can't wait to see everybody.
02:11Christmas Eve at Great Granddad's is the best.
02:13Okay, before we start baking cookies, we need to unpack all of our Christmas decorations.
02:32Yeah, but you have to be careful with these, right?
02:33These are all one of a kind.
02:35Yeah, these are really, really special.
02:36They're my favorite.
02:38Kelly, do you remember making this one in school?
02:40Second grade.
02:42Oh, my gosh.
02:43I made this one in kindergarten.
02:48Yeah, good memory.
02:49Okay, you know what?
02:50Let me take these two special pieces and put it...
02:54We'll put them in a special place right up here so we can see them, okay?
03:01All right, what else do we need to do?
03:04Open presents!
03:05Oh, not yet, bud.
03:06Not yet.
03:07Not till Christmas.
03:08Yeah.
03:09I know you two are really excited, but Christmas Eve is right around the corner.
03:13I can't wait.
03:14Yeah.
03:15Me too.
03:16So fun!
03:21It's got to be hard for them not being at the office and just being over there with Donna.
03:27They're getting ready for the party.
03:30We should see if they need a hand.
03:32Yeah, maybe.
03:37So yeah, let's just go there.
03:39And should we do that, or...?
03:41Yeah.
03:43We should do that.
03:46Let's go.
03:48This year just doesn't feel the same about it, you know?
03:51And I don't want to...
03:53I don't want to be the Grinch.
03:55I don't want to bring the family down, especially the kids, you know?
03:59So...
04:00Yeah, I get it.
04:03Retirement's quite a transition, right?
04:05Yeah.
04:05Yeah.
04:05But I know you, Eric, and when everyone gets here, you'll see.
04:13You'll see.
04:15You're going to start playing the piano, and you're going to sing carols, and you're going
04:19to make your famous eggnog.
04:22And one cup of that, that will lift anyone's spirits.
04:24The family relies on you for Christmas.
04:29You're the patriarch.
04:31You pull the family together.
04:34And you, my dear, you bring the spirit of Christmas.
04:39Um, look, should we just put a pause on this and get the kitchen ready for baking cookies?
04:59Well, let's wait until the kids finish their list to Santa, and if we don't get to it today,
05:03then we can do it before Granddad's party.
05:06It'll be good to see him.
05:09You miss having him at the office?
05:10Yeah.
05:12And I know he misses it, too.
05:15Well, retirement's a big change.
05:18How's he dealing with it?
05:20I'm not entirely sure, but I get the feeling it's hard for him.
05:28Eric?
05:29Eric, I need your help.
05:33Eric?
05:35Oh, oh, oh, boy.
05:36Oh!
05:37Oh!
05:38Oh, there you are.
05:41Oh, hey.
05:43Oh, wow.
05:45This is gorgeous.
05:47Oh, thanks.
05:48Hey, where's my dad?
05:50I didn't see a scar outside.
05:51Is you running an errand?
05:52Oh, that's weird.
05:53He was just here.
05:53He didn't say he was going out or anything.
05:56So, what is it?
05:57Are you worried?
05:58Worried?
06:00No, it's not like he's getting called into work or anything.
06:03I'm sorry.
06:04I'm sorry.
06:04That wasn't cool.
06:05I'm being silly.
06:06That was really bad.
06:08No, I'm just having a weird day, and the way that Eric's feeling...
06:12How is he feeling?
06:16He's fine.
06:17Actually, he's fine.
06:18Everything's fine.
06:20What's going on?
06:22He's having a hard day, okay?
06:25He's having a hard day, why?
06:26Because he's not working?
06:27Because the holidays?
06:28What?
06:29Oh.
06:29Okay, you just leave it with her, and I'll be back in a minute.
06:35Okay, well, where are you going?
06:36I'm going to go find my dad.
06:39Oh.
06:59I'm going to go find my dad.
07:29Oh.
07:56I really thought granddad would appreciate the change.
07:59you Forsters love what you do and it's hard to let go of the challenge and the excitement
08:08yeah but nobody can keep up with that kind of intensity
08:10Eric's dedicated to his craft
08:13I mean we almost lost him it's like that health scare if it wasn't for you and that experimental treatment
08:19yeah but Eric pulled through the recovery wasn't easy
08:23yeah but he got he got back on his feet but then we lost the company
08:27not for long I'm sure it's not how he he imagined spending the rest of his year
08:33you know forcing himself to to retire being at home all day
08:37yeah that's a it's a whole new life yeah yeah it is but
08:41that's why going to granddad's party tomorrow is really important
08:46we need to celebrate him and our family
08:49I didn't mean to make it sound like an emergency or anything
08:53I mean he went out big deal right I mean maybe he's just
08:57buying presents or something
08:59you don't want to overreact and neither do a lot
09:03so did he respond to your texts
09:05no no and he knows I worry
09:10I try not to I mean he doesn't like me keeping tabs on him he says
09:16I'm a grown man you know
09:18who is going through a hard time right now
09:20I know and I'm doing everything I can to pull him out of it you know
09:24I'm suggesting a trip or a new club or anything
09:29he enjoys being with you
09:32I know
09:34I love spending all this time with him but
09:37I don't know this whole retirement thing has just
09:40knocked him off balance
09:43well he is an artist and he's very passionate about his work
09:47but maybe he'll find something to fill that space
09:52I don't know
09:55I don't know Eric said that uh
09:57he wasn't in the mood for Christmas this year
10:01you're telling me
10:10it's frustration and heartache
10:12and how difficult it is you're telling me this
10:14none of that matters

10:18in a beautiful gown
10:19yes
10:20it's all beautiful and yes it's all worth it
10:22but it's not worth putting your life on the line for it
