00:00:00Hi!
00:00:02Leah, this is Maddie.
00:00:03Manny, this is Leah.
00:00:04Obviously, this is Leah.
00:00:05I already have a table, so let's go.
00:00:07Okay.
00:00:08See you.
00:00:09So, I ordered fish heads.
00:00:10Fish heads.
00:00:11How do we feel about that?
00:00:12You know, I've never had it before.
00:00:14I'm also not scared.
00:00:16So, I know an embarrassingly little amount about you because of Graham,
00:00:21but the internet tells me you made an app?
00:00:23Yeah, it's called VegFleet.
00:00:25So, we're a food delivery network,
00:00:27and we partner with eco-friendly restaurants and transport options.
00:00:30So cool.
00:00:31Okay, but enough about work.
00:00:34Tell me the entire story of how you two met and spare no details.
00:00:37Well, we sort of met at work.
00:00:39Well, we kind of met more after work.
00:00:41We got drinks with co-workers.
00:00:43But I already knew who she was.
00:00:45I'd seen her in the third floor kitchen.
00:00:46And what floor do you work on?
00:00:48Six, but the third floor kitchen has one of those really cool Italian latte machines.
00:00:52Yeah, because that's why he was going.
00:00:54He was really just going for the latte machines.
00:00:55Yeah, of course.
00:00:56But we were just like adventure buddies at first,
00:01:00and Graham would just come with me on all my fun expeditions.
00:01:04And the best one was New Year's Eve when we kissed.
00:01:07Finally.
00:01:08We did.
00:01:08And then we shared locations.
00:01:11This is serious.
00:01:13So, has she met the parental units yet?
00:01:15Not yet.
00:01:17Graham, what are you waiting for?
00:01:18Hello.
00:01:19It's not Graham's fault.
00:01:20They keep making plans to come into the city to see friends or a show,
00:01:23but then they end up canceling.
00:01:26Yeah, that sounds familiar.
00:01:28I mean, I don't blame them.
00:01:29It's a really big track, and I'm sure they're very busy people.
00:01:34I mean, my parents, they have such crazy social lives.
00:01:36They could never keep a schedule like theirs.
00:01:38Do you see them a lot?
00:01:39I mean, I try to.
00:01:40We're actually going to see them tonight.
00:01:42First night of Hanukkah.
00:01:43Can't wait.
00:01:44I'm so excited for your first Hanukkah.
00:01:46Also, you can finally see my mom's belief that if you don't go home with leftovers,
00:01:50then there wasn't enough food.
00:01:54Don't look.
00:01:56Guys, I said don't look.
00:01:57You know the human brain can only respond to a phrase like that by looking, right?
00:02:00Who is she?
00:02:02Girl, I dated in junior year.
00:02:04Things didn't end well.
00:02:06She's leaving.
00:02:07She's leaving.
00:02:08She's gone.
00:02:08She left.
00:02:09How did she look?
00:02:10So sad and lonely and overall uninspired.
00:02:20Leah?
00:02:21Graham?
00:02:22Graham?
00:02:24Would you like to come spend Christmas with our family?
00:02:27Are you serious?
00:02:29I am.
00:02:30Are you serious, serious?
00:02:32Because you can't play with me about Christmas, Graham.
00:02:35I am absolutely serious.
00:02:37I want my parents to meet you.
00:02:40Because I really, really am in love with you.
00:02:43I love you.
00:02:45Leah?
00:02:46What have you done to my brother?
00:02:48Because he has never expressed an outward emotion in his entire life,
00:02:52and now he's kissing in a restaurant?
00:02:54I'm speechless.
00:02:55Guys, sorry.
00:02:56Can I circle back to the Christmas thing, though?
00:02:58Like, are your parents going to be fine with it?
00:03:01Of course.
00:03:02It's just that they are, they are.
00:03:04Very specific.
00:03:05Do you mean particular?
00:03:06Sure.
00:03:08Idiosyncratic?
00:03:09Also good.
00:03:10Mm-hmm.
00:03:11Well, I mean, I'm sure they're great, you guys.
00:03:13They made you.
00:03:14Mm-hmm.
00:03:14Mm-hmm.
00:03:15Yeah.
00:03:16Well, they are something.
00:03:19Come on.
00:03:21Oh, my mom's asking, can we pick up challah on the way?
00:03:24I thought Hanukkah was all about the latkes.
00:03:26Well, every Jewish holiday is kind of everything, except for Yom Kippur, which is nothing, and
00:03:30then everything.
00:03:43Oh, don't forget the napkin.
00:03:44Mom, hi.
00:03:47We rang the bell like three times, no answer.
00:03:49What, you think we're going to hear the doorbell?
00:03:51I love to be high.
00:03:52Hi, happy Hanukkah.
00:03:53Hi, happy Hanukkah.
00:03:54Happy Hanukkah.
00:03:55This is Goldberg, happy Hanukkah.
00:03:57Cookie, you're here.
00:03:58Hi, Dad.
00:03:59You're just in time to help me shred more potatoes.
00:04:01My arm is going to fall off.
00:04:03Dad, why do you always do this to yourself?
00:04:05Just use a food processor.
00:04:06That's cheating.
00:04:07Right, Graham?
00:04:08Absolutely.
00:04:09Graham knows the value of doing hard work by hand.
00:04:13Okay.
00:04:14Your dad knows I'm a software designer, right?
00:04:17Soft is literally in the name.
00:04:18I know.
00:04:19Thank you for playing along.
00:04:20Mom, is Sarah here yet?
00:04:22Oh, yes, she is.
00:04:23And she has some great news.
00:04:25Well, cuz, what do you think?
00:04:29Sarah, it's gorgeous.
00:04:31Isn't it?
00:04:31Yeah.
00:04:32Zach did a great job.
00:04:33I may have dropped a subtle hint.
00:04:35Not that subtle.
00:04:36I love you.
00:04:37I love you, too.
00:04:39Oh, my God.
00:04:40I got my little men shredding potatoes by hand.
00:04:43He's so cute.
00:04:46You think you and Graham are next?
00:04:48It would be so fun to be engaged together.
00:04:50It's been a year.
00:04:51It's been almost a year.
00:04:53It was New Year's Eve.
00:04:54And?
00:04:55You love him.
00:04:56He loves you.
00:04:57What's the holdout?
00:04:59We're kind of like a weird match, if you think about it.
00:05:02If by weird you mean perfect, then yes.
00:05:05Have you even talked about it?
00:05:07Like, obliquely.
00:05:09Okay, so?
00:05:10I haven't even met his parents yet.
00:05:13Although, he did ask me to come home with him for Christmas.
00:05:17What?
00:05:17I know.
00:05:18Like, Christmas, Christmas?
00:05:19Like, actual, real, snow-covered, multi-dirt stockings hung by the fireplace with care Christmas.
00:05:24What, Hanukkah isn't enough for you anymore?
00:05:28Sarah, stop it.
00:05:29I'm not converting.
00:05:31I just, I don't know.
00:05:32I really want to see Christmas from the inside.
00:05:34You know, like, how it is in the movies.
00:05:36Oh, I get that.
00:05:37White Christmas paints a real pretty picture.
00:05:39Or the airport scene from Love, actually.
00:05:43Yes.
00:05:43Can you believe Graham doesn't like that movie?
00:05:45Travesty.
00:05:45I know.
00:05:46Okay, let's focus.
00:05:48Okay, what are you going to wear?
00:05:49I don't know.
00:05:50What do people wear?
00:05:51Plaid Christmas sweaters?
00:05:52Antlers and a red nose?
00:05:55But you know what?
00:05:56I'm not going to be able to go to family dinner at Egg Foo Yum on Christmas Day.
00:05:59Egg Foo Yum isn't going anywhere.
00:06:01What's important is that you get to go have fun and experience Christmas.
00:06:04And when Graham's family meets you, they are going to fall instantly in love with you,
00:06:09just like Graham did.
00:06:12Okay, let me see this ring again, please.
00:06:13Oh, my gosh.
00:06:14It's really beautiful.
00:06:19The key to latkes is to fry them very fast.
00:06:22Otherwise, the potatoes turn gray.
00:06:24Because of oxidation.
00:06:26Yes, exactly.
00:06:27Food is science.
00:06:30Oh, Leah, there you are.
00:06:31I made you a plate.
00:06:32You haven't eaten all night.
00:06:33Wait, Mom, can I talk to you first?
00:06:34Yeah, of course.
00:06:35Is everything okay?
00:06:35Are you sick?
00:06:36No.
00:06:37Did you lose your job?
00:06:38No.
00:06:38Is it bed bugs?
00:06:39It's bed bugs, isn't it?
00:06:40I knew it.
00:06:40I never liked that apartment building.
00:06:42It is so dingy.
00:06:43You can move back in with your father and I anytime you need to.
00:06:46Mom.
00:06:46Wait, do you have a fever?
00:06:47No, Mom, I don't have a fever.
00:06:49I don't have bed bugs.
00:06:50I just want to tell you that Graham invited me to have Christmas with his family.
00:06:56Oh, you're finally going to meet the mysterious Westwood family.
00:07:00I guess so.
00:07:01Well, that is big news.
00:07:03So you're not mad that I'm not going to be with you guys for the holidays?
00:07:06Mad?
00:07:07I'm not mad.
00:07:07I don't get mad.
00:07:08Why would I be mad?
00:07:09You're mad.
00:07:10We don't even celebrate Christmas.
00:07:12We go to Ed Thuyam every year.
00:07:14I am sure they're going to make you a standing red rose with the little white paper booties
00:07:19and the thing with the little lady fingers that Martha Stewart makes.
00:07:22Trifle.
00:07:22They live in Connecticut, not Down Abbey.
00:07:26I know.
00:07:29Do you love him?
00:07:31I do.
00:07:33I really, really do.
00:07:36I want what you and Dad have.
00:07:38Well, then that's all that matters.
00:07:46I just hope that they like me.
00:07:48Like you?
00:07:48They're going to love you.
00:07:50And if they don't, they have me to contend with.
00:07:52How can you eat?
00:07:53I have food.
00:07:54Oh, wow.
00:07:56Brim.
00:07:58Luckers aren't really luckers unless you set up the smoke detector.
00:08:01My mom needs Julia Childs.
00:08:10Okay.
00:08:11Taste test.
00:08:12Oh, okay.
00:08:13Your dad made these.
00:08:14Okay.
00:08:19Gail Simmons from Top Chef would say that those eat really well.
00:08:23Those are a good fry.
00:08:24Okay, okay.
00:08:24And I made these.
00:08:26Okay.
00:08:26Let's do it together.
00:08:27All right.
00:08:28Cheers.
00:08:28Those are perfection.
00:08:34You.
00:08:35You are Top Chef.
00:08:37Do you have any other hidden towns I don't know about?
00:08:39Nope.
00:08:40This is my only one.
00:08:41Lippin' Lottkas also applies to pancakes, French toast, grilled cheese.
00:08:45Mmm.
00:08:47Question.
00:08:48What were you and my dad talking about over there?
00:08:50Nosey lady.
00:08:52What?
00:08:52You guys were having a very intense conversation.
00:08:55Oh.
00:08:56He was answering some questions I had about, uh, lenses.
00:08:59Mmm.
00:09:00Right.
00:09:00They're not dinner.
00:09:01They're not dessert.
00:09:02What are they?
00:09:03What are they?
00:09:03Yeah.
00:09:04Are you sure about me going back for Christmas to meet your folks?
00:09:08Eleanor, you are not leaving without taking some food.
00:09:11Jonathan.
00:09:12I mean, they can't be any nuttier than my family.
00:09:15Well, let's just say my family's very different than this.
00:09:21Well, I'm really excited to meet them.
00:09:30Hello?
00:09:30Hi.
00:09:32Come in.
00:09:32Come in.
00:09:34Okay.
00:09:34I have something for you.
00:09:36I was gonna wait to give it to you later, Veronica, but I just don't want to give it to you now.
00:09:43Ta-da-da!
00:09:44Wow.
00:09:44Isn't it amazing?
00:09:45It's something.
00:09:46I got myself a matching one, too.
00:09:48Really?
00:09:49Yeah.
00:09:49I mean, you said that your parents like to dress up for Christmas at their house, so...
00:09:53Yeah.
00:09:54I think I...
00:09:55I kind of meant it's fancy.
00:09:57Yeah?
00:09:57Did I go overboard?
00:09:59No, no, no.
00:09:59I love that you're bringing your own game to Christmas.
00:10:01I really do.
00:10:02I just want to make sure that, you know, Christmas with my parents lives up to your expectations.
00:10:08No.
00:10:08I mean, I want to get Christmas right.
00:10:11You can't really get Christmas right.
00:10:13Yeah.
00:10:13No, I know.
00:10:14I'm just...
00:10:14I'm really excited for my first Christmas and also to see where you grew up and, you know, get to know your family.
00:10:19Okay.
00:10:19Well, in that case, do you want to know one of my mom's favorite holiday traditions?
00:10:23Yeah.
00:10:25Writing letters to Santa.
00:10:28Oh!
00:10:28Cute.
00:10:29This was serious business when we were kids.
00:10:31I still do it every year, actually.
00:10:33Want to try one?
00:10:34Yeah.
00:10:38Um...
00:10:39What does one write in a letter to Santa?
00:10:41Oh, I'm sure there's something you can think of.
00:10:46No?
00:10:46Sleep on it.
00:10:49I'll get this to the big guy and read tomorrow.
00:10:51Okay.
00:10:53Did you ever think when we first met that we would be here now in love and sharing our family's traditions?
00:11:03I'm in my wildest dreams.
00:11:06It's going to be great, right?
00:11:08Yeah.
00:11:08Yes.
00:11:09Yeah.
00:11:09But that's a tomorrow adventure.
00:11:12Okay.
00:11:13First, we celebrate the last night of Hanukkah.
00:11:16Oh, yeah.
00:11:17Should we light the menorah?
00:11:18Yes, let's do it.
00:11:21What do you call this man again?
00:11:22The shamash.
00:11:23The shamash.
00:11:24Mm-hmm.
00:11:24Here.
00:11:25Here.
00:11:26Here.
00:11:27Barul hata Adonai.
00:11:33Eloheinu mele haolam.
00:11:38Asher kiddush anu bo mitzvotah.
00:11:43Betziv banu.
00:11:45Lehad lechner.
00:11:47Sheil hanukkah.
00:11:51Amen.
00:11:54Happy Hanukkah.
00:11:55Happy Hanukkah.
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00So, Mitch and Barbara.
00:12:02Yes, but don't call her Barb.
00:12:04Noted.
00:12:04Any other topics that are off limits?
00:12:07Just the usual, like, politics, culture, change, technology.
00:12:12Sports?
00:12:12Sports.
00:12:13Yeah, she hates sports.
00:12:14She kind of goes, like, dead behind the eyes.
00:12:16Copy that.
00:12:17Oh, and maybe don't tell them that you're not going to business school,
00:12:20even though you definitely said that you were going to buckle down and get serious
00:12:23after a year of backpacking across Asia was finished.
00:12:26Is that true?
00:12:27You're not going to business school?
00:12:28No, I am not.
00:12:29But I am starting an artisanal pickle company with some of my friends.
00:12:32That's pretty cool.
00:12:32And I will wait until they're both in good moods to tell them.
00:12:35In good moods at the same time?
00:12:36Good luck with that.
00:12:37Oh, Mama's talking about gardening.
00:12:39Oh, Graham mentioned that, actually.
00:12:41I actually said she likes commenting on other people's gardens.
00:12:44I think the word you're looking for is criticizing.
00:12:46Okay, what about your dad?
00:12:48What does he like to talk about?
00:12:50Apps?
00:12:51It's like appetizers?
00:12:52No, more like applications.
00:12:54Well, does he know that I design apps for a living?
00:12:57No, but I can't wait for you to tell him.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:01Okay.
00:13:01Okay.
00:13:01Okay.
00:13:03Okay.
00:13:05Okay.
00:13:07Okay.
00:13:09Okay.
00:13:11Okay.
00:13:13Okay.
00:13:15Okay.
00:13:15Okay.
00:13:16Okay.
00:13:16Looks nice, huh?
00:13:22Nice.
00:13:23It's beautiful.
00:13:24Oh, my gosh.
00:13:25Is it even real?
00:13:26It looks like a postcard.
00:13:28It's real.
00:13:29I can assure you.
00:13:30Very, very pretty on the outside.
00:13:32Yoo-hoo!
00:13:33Over here!
00:13:34But very, very weird on the inside.
00:13:37Hello?
00:13:38The ornaments are not going to hang themselves, you know.
00:13:41Come on!
00:13:41Did she just say ornaments?
00:13:43Yep.
00:13:44Am I dreaming?
00:13:45Oh, my gosh.
00:13:51Look at this.
00:13:52Look at this ram.
00:13:53This little goat.
00:13:55Is it a goat?
00:13:56Or is it a lamb?
00:13:57Yeah, I think that's a lamb.
00:13:59Okay.
00:13:59Mom!
00:14:00This is Leah.
00:14:01Hi, Mrs. Westwood.
00:14:03It is so nice to meet you.
00:14:07Welcome to our home.
00:14:08We are thrilled to have you.
00:14:09Here?
00:14:10Gremlin.
00:14:11Good to see you.
00:14:12Oh, I have missed you.
00:14:14Now I want you to go put your bags down because we have to get this big tree decorated by three o'clock.
00:14:19Okay.
00:14:19And Madeline, Mom.
00:14:21Oh, that's new.
00:14:23Mitchell!
00:14:25I want to put my stuff away.
00:14:26Yeah.
00:14:28Gremlin?
00:14:29Ugh.
00:14:30Like, gremlin?
00:14:31Yeah, no, I got it.
00:14:32Hey, um, what's happening at three o'clock?
00:14:34I don't know, but we're about to find out.
00:14:36Oh, hello there.
00:14:40Hey.
00:14:42This is my girlfriend, Leah.
00:14:44Leah, this is my dad.
00:14:45Oh, sorry.
00:14:46I'm a hugger.
00:14:47Okay, welcome, welcome.
00:14:48Okay, so I hear you two work together.
00:14:50Yeah, kind of.
00:14:51Well, he works in software design, and I'm app development.
00:14:54App development?
00:14:55That's fantastic.
00:14:56Anything I would have heard of?
00:14:57Uh, VegFleet.
00:15:00Veg what?
00:15:01Fleet.
00:15:02Yeah, it's efficient and sustainable food delivery,
00:15:05and we used biodiesel-converted vehicles
00:15:08and partnered with EcoFord establishments.
00:15:10I didn't understand a single word you said.
00:15:13But it sounds amazing.
00:15:14She's smarter than you, I can tell.
00:15:16It's true, it's true.
00:15:17You know, I've got a couple ideas myself
00:15:19that I would love to share with you.
00:15:20Yeah?
00:15:20Yeah.
00:15:21I would love to hear them.
00:15:22Fantastic.
00:15:23Duty calls.
00:15:24All right.
00:15:25See you.
00:15:28Okay.
00:15:31Oh, my gosh.
00:15:33Okay.
00:15:34Up the stairs we go.
00:15:35Let's go.
00:15:36Oh, my gosh.
00:15:36There's another Christmas tree.
00:15:43She's back here.
00:15:44Okay.
00:15:47There it is.
00:15:50Oh, my gosh.
00:15:51It's so cute.
00:15:56Oh, apologies, Leah.
00:15:58My gift wrapping has overtaken the guest room.
00:16:01No, no, no.
00:16:02It's okay.
00:16:02It's wonderful.
00:16:06It's wonderful.
00:16:07I'm so happy you're here.
00:16:08Me too.
00:16:10Hey, are you hungry?
00:16:11We didn't get lunch.
00:16:13Yeah, I could, uh...
00:16:14Where is everybody?
00:16:17I guess we gotta go.
00:16:18You, uh...
00:16:19You take a minute and...
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:20Come down when you're ready.
00:16:21Okay.
00:16:21Okay.
00:16:37Now, here is everyone's Christmas schedule.
00:16:40Ooh.
00:16:42Thanks, Mark.
00:16:42Oh, my gosh.
00:16:43This is amazing.
00:16:45Okay, what do we have?
00:16:46Decorate tree, gingerbread house compost.
00:16:49This sounds so great.
00:16:51Well, I'm delighted that you think so.
00:16:53And just so you know, we do things a little differently here regarding presents.
00:16:57We just do one present on Christmas Eve and then the rest on Christmas Day.
00:17:00It's tradition.
00:17:02Great.
00:17:02Mom, there is, like, no downtime in here.
00:17:06Oh, now that's where you're wrong.
00:17:07Last page, you will have a whole eight hours to sleep every night.
00:17:12Oh.
00:17:12Great.
00:17:13Okay.
00:17:14Oh, and speaking of sleeping, here are this year's Christmas pajamas.
00:17:20Oh, nice.
00:17:21Christmas pajamas for you.
00:17:24Oh, my gosh.
00:17:28Oh.
00:17:30Uh-huh.
00:17:32Mom doesn't like it when you rip the wrapping paper.
00:17:36Oh.
00:17:37That's my bad.
00:17:38I should have told you.
00:17:43Sorry.
00:17:45Beautiful paper.
00:17:49Oh, I love them.
00:17:53They're beautiful.
00:17:55Mom, these are huge.
00:17:57No.
00:17:57I said medium.
00:17:58They're perfect.
00:17:59Thank you so much.
00:18:01We wear them on Christmas Eve and also, again, together on Christmas morning.
00:18:06Got it.
00:18:08Well, all righty then.
00:18:09Shall we start decorating?
00:18:11Oh, my gosh.
00:18:14A sugar-pone fairy.
00:18:16I've had visions of this dancing in my head all week.
00:18:19Looks like you.
00:18:20Oh, and I almost forgot.
00:18:22I also ordered us personalized Santa hats for snowman making with the hamstons.
00:18:27Yay.
00:18:28Oh.
00:18:29Who are the hamstons?
00:18:30Oh.
00:18:30Our dear, dear friends.
00:18:33Right, Graham?
00:18:33Oh, boy.
00:18:37Yeah.
00:18:38They're, uh, good friends.
00:18:49Oh.
00:18:51The bunny.
00:18:52My favorite.
00:18:55You remember when the bunny gave me this bunny?
00:18:58Every year about the bunny.
00:19:00It's just an ornament, Mother.
00:19:01It's special.
00:19:02Oh, I forgot.
00:19:04I have something for you.
00:19:05Oh, yeah.
00:19:07Bye.
00:19:08Is this mold?
00:19:16No, it's moss.
00:19:18It's a terrarium.
00:19:20It's a terrarium.
00:19:20Oh, a terrarium.
00:19:21Graham mentioned that you're an avid gardener.
00:19:24I am.
00:19:25Yeah, it's actually also an ornament, so you can hang it on the tree, and it's a self-contained
00:19:30ecosystem, so it doesn't even need water.
00:19:32Oh.
00:19:36You can, you know what?
00:19:37You can put it wherever you want, because, you know, it's, it's, uh, it's your tree.
00:19:41I think it's really cool, Mom.
00:19:44It's unique.
00:19:46Thank you, Leah.
00:19:47Mm-hmm.
00:19:47You're welcome.
00:19:49It's nice.
00:19:55Does she hate it?
00:19:57She loves it.
00:20:07You know what would be a really cool idea?
00:20:09Huh?
00:20:10Is an app that could help you map out how to hang ornaments on a tree.
00:20:14Mitchell.
00:20:15Yeah, well.
00:20:15How can an app do that any better than I can?
00:20:18Leah, come here.
00:20:19I am going to teach you our ornament hanging system.
00:20:22Okay.
00:20:22That's a good idea.
00:20:24Go get them.
00:20:25Voila.
00:20:26Now, imagine the tree is divided into quadrants.
00:20:31Yeah.
00:20:31Yes.
00:20:32Oh, here we go with the quadrants.
00:20:33And each quadrant should contain an equal number of types of ornaments, all hung in exactly
00:20:39four-inch intervals.
00:20:41Okay.
00:20:41I got it.
00:20:42I got it.
00:20:42Four inches.
00:20:43Okay.
00:20:45Gingerballs.
00:20:47Here.
00:20:48Ha, ha, ha.
00:20:48This is so fun.
00:20:52Um, okay.
00:20:54What time is dinner?
00:20:56Are you hungry?
00:20:58No.
00:20:59Would you like some seaweed?
00:21:01Oh, yeah.
00:21:02Do you have sushi?
00:21:04Eh, even better.
00:21:05Oh.
00:21:07I live on this stove.
00:21:09You do.
00:21:10Cheers.
00:21:11Cheers.
00:21:15It's delicious.
00:21:36Where's the restroom?
00:21:37Yeah, just up the stairs and to the left.
00:21:43Hey, how's it going?
00:21:45Is it everything you hope for?
00:21:46Is it like a real live Christmas carol?
00:21:48Yes, it's beyond.
00:21:50Does it smell like freshly cut pine trees and mulled wine like you're inside a Williams-Sonoma?
00:21:54Yes, all of the above.
00:21:55I'm in the bathroom right now, and there is literally Santa Claus toilet paper.
00:22:00Leah?
00:22:01Are you hiding in the powder room?
00:22:04No.
00:22:05Yes.
00:22:06No?
00:22:08Mrs. Westwood didn't like my hostess gift.
00:22:11The terrarium?
00:22:12It was so cute.
00:22:13That's what I thought.
00:22:15Also, this is so weird.
00:22:16There's no food.
00:22:18What?
00:22:19Like just snackies and chips and stuff?
00:22:22No, no, no.
00:22:22Like nothing.
00:22:24I mean, other than a really upsetting bite of seaweed.
00:22:27But we got here at one, right?
00:22:29Dinner isn't until six, and we have been decorating the tree the entire time.
00:22:34Not one person has offered a bowl of pretzels or nuts or anything.
00:22:38There's been no snacks, Sarah.
00:22:40No nosh.
00:22:41I'm sure there will eventually be some kind of meal, but...
00:22:44For now, can you sneak out and grab something to eat?
00:22:46There's got to be a gas station or something close by.
00:22:49I mean, they're still in America.
00:22:50And, of course, they like you.
00:22:54Just give them a chance to get to know you.
00:22:56After all, you might be a permanent fixture at their table.
00:23:00Sarah.
00:23:00What?
00:23:01I bet he's going to pop the question before the holiday's over.
00:23:04Oh, my gosh.
00:23:05I'm calling you later.
00:23:11Oh.
00:23:11Oh, hi.
00:23:13Hello.
00:23:14Hi.
00:23:14I was just seeing a man about a horse.
00:23:18Of course.
00:23:19Well, we thought we were done decorating, but Mitchell just found the box of porcelain snowflakes.
00:23:25Can you believe that?
00:23:27I cannot.
00:23:29No.
00:23:29Come down and join us when you're ready.
00:23:32Hmm?
00:23:32Okay.
00:23:33Yeah.
00:23:37Oh.
00:23:38We'll be having dinner soon, dear.
00:23:40If you, um, want to change your clothes.
00:23:44Right.
00:23:45Of course.
00:23:49Okay, this is up in the closet.
00:24:06There are six trees and down.
00:24:08This is, this is her.
00:24:11Yeah.
00:24:11Hey, does your mom hate me?
00:24:16What?
00:24:16No.
00:24:17Of course not.
00:24:18Did something happen?
00:24:19I mean, she told me to change my sweater for dinner.
00:24:23Is this not a good Christmas sweater?
00:24:24This is a terrific Christmas sweater.
00:24:26It's very festive.
00:24:28I mean, it's baby's first Christmas.
00:24:30I know.
00:24:30Hey, you're doing great.
00:24:31Come here.
00:24:32You're doing great.
00:24:36Hey, is dinner soon?
00:24:37Oh, I hope so.
00:24:38I'm starving.
00:24:40I think my mom said she's making roast beef, all the fixings.
00:24:43Oh, yeah.
00:24:45Cheer up, little elf.
00:24:48Santa's coming so soon.
00:24:51Let's go.
00:24:52Okay, you go first.
00:24:53Okay, darling.
00:25:04I didn't know everybody was going to be so dressed up.
00:25:07I said it was going to be fancy.
00:25:08I thought you meant fancy like this.
00:25:11No, I just meant like the regular kind of fancy.
00:25:18Can I help you with the rest?
00:25:19Oh, no.
00:25:22That's everything.
00:25:23Oh, I forgot the rules.
00:25:26Right back.
00:25:28The end?
00:25:29Yeah.
00:25:31I forgot to mention, mom's a terrible cook, but we make sure she doesn't know we think that.
00:25:35Okay.
00:25:40Food looks delicious, mom.
00:25:41So good.
00:25:44Can I have some salt?
00:25:45That is, please pass the salt.
00:25:49Please pass the salt.
00:25:52Remember your manners.
00:25:53Mm-hmm.
00:25:55Mm-hmm.
00:25:55Mm-hmm.
00:26:03Thanks.
00:26:03Mm-hmm.
00:26:07Mm-hmm.
00:26:08Amazing.
00:26:09Anyone want to hear a joke?
00:26:14Yes.
00:26:15Yeah, sure.
00:26:16Yeah.
00:26:16Sure.
00:26:16Yeah.
00:26:17Sure.
00:26:18So there's this older couple, and they go to London for a trip.
00:26:22And they come home, and they have their friends over for dinner, and they're telling them how great the trip was and how much fun they had.
00:26:29And the friend asks the older guy, where did you guys stay in London?
00:26:34And the older guy stops, and he thinks for a moment, and he says, what's the name of that flower, the one that's really beautiful, smells amazing, has thorns?
00:26:45And the guy says, a rose, and the older guy says, right, rose, what's the name of that hotel we stayed at in London?
00:26:53And the other guy says, what's the name of that hotel?
00:27:23It's 8-1 sauce.
00:27:25Oh.
00:27:26So, Leah, what does your family do for the holidays?
00:27:30Oh, well, the whole family, we all get together, and we have this big Hanukkah celebration.
00:27:36We have lakas, which are just potato pancakes.
00:27:38They're amazing, by the way.
00:27:40Yeah.
00:27:40I made them.
00:27:41I ate so many of them.
00:27:42And then we have soup on yoke, which is just jelly donuts, and all the kids, they play dreidel, and they get gelt, which are these little chocolate coins.
00:27:50Oh.
00:27:51Yeah, and then we usually just all get Chinese food on Christmas Day.
00:27:55That sounds cool.
00:27:57You what?
00:27:59Chinese restaurants are usually open on Christmas Day.
00:28:02Leah's actually been to China.
00:28:04Yeah.
00:28:04I went to the World Conference on Applied Engineering.
00:28:08And, you know, I never thought that I would try blowfish, but I did, and it was delicious.
00:28:14Wow.
00:28:15That does sound exciting.
00:28:18I thought blowfish was poisonous.
00:28:20Oh, only the ovaries, Dad.
00:28:21Oh.
00:28:22Yeah.
00:28:22And skin and liver.
00:28:23Well, you learn something new every day, don't you?
00:28:26Mm-hmm.
00:28:26You know, that is the kind of global knowledge that we could use down at the bank, you know.
00:28:30Let me tell you.
00:28:30Mm-hmm.
00:28:31Mm-hmm.
00:28:31I'm just saying that the option is always there for you to join the old family biz, as
00:28:35they say.
00:28:36Yep.
00:28:37That's what they say.
00:28:38Mm-hmm.
00:28:39Oh, you know what would be a clever idea?
00:28:40Is an app that would tell you where all the mailboxes are in the entire world, and they
00:28:46don't have that, you know.
00:28:47Don't you just hate having to drive around looking for mailboxes?
00:28:50Crazy.
00:28:51Billion-dollar idea, Dad.
00:28:53Thank you, son.
00:29:00Meat, broccoli, and waltz.
00:29:02That was the whole dinner?
00:29:03The whole thing.
00:29:04That is violent.
00:29:06Does Graham know you left the house?
00:29:07No, everyone went to sleep at like 7.30, so I slipped out the back like a thief.
00:29:13Why is nothing open?
00:29:15Where are you?
00:29:16Oh, you know what?
00:29:17Hold on a second.
00:29:18I think I found something.
00:29:20I'll call you back.
00:29:20Good luck.
00:29:26Hi.
00:29:27Hi.
00:29:28Hi.
00:29:37Just these, please.
00:29:53Thanks.
00:29:56Oh, hungry?
00:29:58Mm.
00:29:59Those are my favorite, too.
00:30:00Right?
00:30:01So good.
00:30:03Mm.
00:30:04I'm spending Christmas with my boyfriend's family, and there's no food.
00:30:07Like, no snackies or no food at all?
00:30:10Like, very little.
00:30:11In my family, snacking at Christmas is like an Olympic sport.
00:30:14Right?
00:30:14What's wrong with these people?
00:30:16I do not know.
00:30:17Maybe they're one of those families who only shops for and cooks one meal at a time.
00:30:21Sorry, what is that sweet, sweet aroma?
00:30:23Gingerbread loaf.
00:30:25Freshly baked.
00:30:26Want a slice?
00:30:27Yes.
00:30:28I absolutely do.
00:30:29This is the first time that I'm meeting Graham's family.
00:30:35My cousin thinks that he's going to propose on Christmas, but I'm not really sure.
00:30:39I don't really think his mom likes me.
00:30:41And what if he's like, I can't marry someone that my mom doesn't like?
00:30:45And I mean, I can't change who I am.
00:30:47I don't think you have to.
00:30:49You just have to be you and trust that it's enough.
00:30:51Mm.
00:30:52Thanks.
00:30:53I'm Leah, by the way.
00:30:54Trisha.
00:30:55Nice to meet you, Trisha.
00:30:57This is the best thing I've ever eaten in my life.
00:30:59I always say there isn't much in life that can't be solved with a little something to eat.
00:31:03You get it.
00:31:06All right.
00:31:07I should probably go before they realize that I'm gone.
00:31:10Merry Christmas.
00:31:11Merry Christmas, Leah.
00:31:12Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:13Merry Christmas.
00:31:13Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:14Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:15Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:15Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:15Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:17Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:17Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:17Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:18Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:18Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:19Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:20Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:20Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:21Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:22Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:23Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:24Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:25Merry Christmas, I'm a little bit.
00:31:26PIANO CONTINUES
00:31:55Graham?
00:32:01What are you doing?
00:32:02I'm starving.
00:32:03Me too!
00:32:04Shh!
00:32:05Come with me.
00:32:11Okay, so what is it that you're making?
00:32:20My emergency mac and cheese.
00:32:23Oh.
00:32:25Okay.
00:32:26I always keep a stash for moments like these.
00:32:29Can you pass me the can opener?
00:32:31I think it's in that drawer.
00:32:32Yes.
00:32:35Mm-hmm.
00:32:39You okay?
00:32:40Your mom took my ornament off the tree.
00:32:44She's finicky about the tree.
00:32:46Don't read too much into it.
00:32:47Okay.
00:32:49But do admit that it's strange.
00:32:51Okay, it's strange.
00:32:52But has your mom never done anything strange?
00:32:55Well, yeah, of course.
00:32:57See?
00:32:58Moms are strange.
00:33:00Look, Christmas has a funny way of bringing out everyone's quirks.
00:33:04And my parents have a lot of them.
00:33:07Especially my mom.
00:33:08She thrives on routine.
00:33:10Having you here has shaken things up.
00:33:16Not in a bad way.
00:33:17Not in a bad way.
00:33:18But it takes some adjusting for her.
00:33:21I mean, I get it.
00:33:22I'm kind of like that, too.
00:33:23Kind of.
00:33:26Okay, here's the thing.
00:33:28Can't forget the panko crust.
00:33:29Look at that.
00:33:30Don't be shy.
00:33:32She's gonna love you.
00:33:33She's gonna love me.
00:33:34And you're gonna love this.
00:33:36She's gonna love me.
00:33:38She's gonna love me.
00:33:39This will make everything better.
00:33:50Of course.
00:33:57Much better.
00:33:59Shall we dig in?
00:34:01Absolutely.
00:34:03Cheers.
00:34:04Cheers.
00:34:04Cheers.
00:34:04Cheers.
00:34:05Cheers.
00:34:09Welcome to my video on how to decorate gingerbread houses.
00:34:33Follow along and you'll look like an expert overnight.
00:34:39Good morning.
00:34:47Oh, Leah.
00:34:48I'm sorry, but you missed breakfast.
00:34:51Oh, no problem.
00:34:52I already sent Graham and Madeline out to do some last-minute Christmas prep for our gingerbread house activity.
00:34:59And I have to do some things for the Christmas pageant.
00:35:02And I cannot find my phone.
00:35:05Well, do you want me to call it?
00:35:06Honey, now how is that gonna help?
00:35:08I don't have it.
00:35:09Well, um, it would ring.
00:35:12Oh.
00:35:13Yes, please.
00:35:26Hello?
00:35:26Hello?
00:35:29Oh.
00:35:29Well, this is embarrassing.
00:35:34No, it's not.
00:35:34I'm always like, where are my sunglasses?
00:35:37And then they're on top of my head.
00:35:38Right.
00:35:39Hey, can I do anything else to help you?
00:35:41No, thank you.
00:35:42You have solved my biggest problem of the day.
00:35:44And later tonight, we are going to make some gingerbread houses.
00:35:47Oh, okay.
00:35:48Yay.
00:35:49Okay.
00:35:49Bye.
00:35:50Bye.
00:35:50Bye.
00:35:50Bye.
00:35:53Actually, if you don't mind, could you please drive me into town so I can type out a list on the way?
00:35:59Yes.
00:36:00For sure.
00:36:01Well, hurry, please.
00:36:02I am so late.
00:36:03Come on.
00:36:04Thank you, Leah.
00:36:10This is so helpful.
00:36:11Yeah.
00:36:12I'll just be at the hall for about 20 minutes.
00:36:14Uh-huh.
00:36:14I guess you won't be going into any stores in your pajamas.
00:36:18Well, it's actually a lounge set, but...
00:36:30I shall meet you right back here.
00:36:33Oh, I'm not...
00:36:34Well, okay.
00:36:36Hello.
00:36:37How fun.
00:36:44Hi.
00:36:52Hi.
00:36:53Welcome into Mrs. Rabbit's Hodge.
00:36:55It's a pop-up from our main store a few blocks down.
00:36:57It's all so beautiful.
00:36:59I know.
00:37:00Can I offer you a warm cinnamon beverage?
00:37:02Yes, please.
00:37:04Oh, my gosh.
00:37:05These are so cute.
00:37:08You know, I actually think I'm going to get this mug.
00:37:10Not sure I like the sound of that.
00:37:19I'm so sorry, Mrs. Rabbit.
00:37:25I, of course, I will pay for everything.
00:37:27If you insist, they're $150.
00:37:30Total each?
00:37:32Wow.
00:37:33Plus the mug.
00:37:35Right.
00:37:36Sure.
00:37:37Shall I pack up the pieces for you?
00:37:39Um, okay.
00:37:43We appreciate your business.
00:37:45Yeah.
00:37:46Well, Merry Christmas, I guess.
00:37:56So, wait, where is all this candy from?
00:37:58Oh, I wouldn't eat it.
00:37:59Oh.
00:37:59Mom's been collecting it since, like, the late 90s.
00:38:01All right.
00:38:02All right.
00:38:03It's time we explain the parameters of Gingerbread House building to Leah.
00:38:07Oh, well, I actually have a master's in fluid engineering, so.
00:38:11Well, Mr. Westwood was referring to the parameters of the contest.
00:38:15So, what now?
00:38:16Contest.
00:38:17It's a contest?
00:38:18That's what makes it fun.
00:38:21I mean, it is intrinsically fun to build houses out of cookies, but.
00:38:25You're going to do great.
00:38:26All right, everyone will have one hour from the time that I start this clock, and I will
00:38:31be the roving assistant and also the judge.
00:38:34And in keeping with tradition, the winning design will be displayed at the Christmas pageant
00:38:38Christmas Eve.
00:38:39And the time starts now.
00:38:44Madeline, piping.
00:38:45I'm going to need more glue.
00:38:57I'm going to need more glue, people.
00:39:00So, what are we going with here?
00:39:03Swiss chalet?
00:39:04A swim gospel?
00:39:06So, I was going for a jingle bell scene, but now I'm pivoting to Santa's workshop.
00:39:10How are we on timing?
00:39:11Oh, 24 minutes and 30 seconds to go.
00:39:1324 minutes and 30 seconds, people.
00:39:15That's time.
00:39:32All right, icing bags down.
00:39:33Hands up.
00:39:37Oh, good effort, son.
00:39:40Yeah.
00:39:41Whoa.
00:39:41Leah, this is incredible.
00:39:46Like, Dad, look at this.
00:39:47Like, the chimney is smoking.
00:39:49Like, individual shingles.
00:39:50Oh, the attention of the defense.
00:39:52There's, like, wings and the shingles are...
00:39:54Oh, my gosh!
00:39:54Wow.
00:39:55It's Santa and Mrs. Claus.
00:39:56Did you travel there on Friday?
00:39:57I have my way.
00:39:58Attention.
00:39:59And the silly marshmallows.
00:40:00Pretzels for the walkway?
00:40:01That's ingenious.
00:40:01Santa and Mrs. Sinclair.
00:40:03That's a five-point point.
00:40:05You know what I think?
00:40:07I think it's better if we don't judge the gingerbread houses.
00:40:12Why not?
00:40:12You did such a good job.
00:40:13No, no, no.
00:40:15I think it's...
00:40:17I think it's a four-way tie.
00:40:19No.
00:40:20We always judge the gingerbread houses.
00:40:23And the best one goes to the pageant.
00:40:25That is our tradition.
00:40:26Well, if we're going on merit...
00:40:29Just judge them as if you did not know who made which one.
00:40:32But I do know...
00:40:35Mitchell?
00:40:37Okay.
00:40:38Scoring all across the categories.
00:40:41Design, precision, imaginative candy usage, color story.
00:40:46Yeah, Leah has scored five.
00:40:49Pretty much top marks.
00:40:51Okay.
00:40:51In all.
00:40:52So, hers wins?
00:40:55I think that's obvious.
00:40:58Hmm.
00:40:59Well, then.
00:41:01That's that.
00:41:02That's it.
00:41:03We don't...
00:41:04We don't...
00:41:05We don't need to clap.
00:41:06Congratulations.
00:41:07Where did you learn such sophisticated technique?
00:41:11Just watch some YouTube videos.
00:41:13Oh.
00:41:14YouTube.
00:41:16Well, you will have to show me those videos sometime.
00:41:19Okay.
00:41:20Well, I think I shall go to bed early.
00:41:23We have a big day tomorrow.
00:41:26Good night, everyone.
00:41:27Good night, Mom.
00:41:28Good night, Mom.
00:41:28Good night.
00:41:28Oh, app idea.
00:41:30Uh-huh.
00:41:30Glue tube.
00:41:31Mitchell.
00:41:32Right.
00:41:33I'll be joining her.
00:41:34Excuse me.
00:41:35Good night, Dad.
00:41:35Good night.
00:41:36Good night.
00:41:37Good night, guys.
00:41:38Bye, Mad.
00:41:40Why didn't you tell me?
00:41:42Tell you what?
00:41:43To throw the contest.
00:41:44First of all, it's so weird it's a contest.
00:41:45Second of all, it was not fun to win.
00:41:47But your house turned out great.
00:41:49I know it did because I studied.
00:41:51I'm someone who likes to study, and you know this about me.
00:41:54So, again, I ask you, why didn't you tell me to let your mom win?
00:41:57Maybe I didn't want her to win.
00:42:00I don't know.
00:42:01Oh, I didn't realize you were an agent of chaos.
00:42:05I didn't know you were a gingerbread house savant.
00:42:08I didn't know you were a gingerbread house savant.
00:42:08Okay, so tell me, what are we doing tomorrow?
00:42:18Oh, right.
00:42:19We are building snowmen with the hemp stoves.
00:42:22Oh, fun.
00:42:23Who are they again?
00:42:24They're family friends.
00:42:26Yeah, we've known them forever.
00:42:28They have a daughter who was...
00:42:31Was she your girlfriend?
00:42:34We were kids, you know?
00:42:36We went out, but it's nothing.
00:42:39Okay.
00:42:39Well, I mean, I'm sure they're great.
00:42:42I look forward to meeting them.
00:42:45You know what?
00:42:46Huh?
00:42:48This whole thing's been a lot.
00:42:50Mm-hmm.
00:42:50You've been such a good sport
00:42:52about all this crazy family activity stuff.
00:42:56I was thinking maybe you and me
00:42:58could go for a little walk tomorrow.
00:43:01Yeah.
00:43:02Just me and you.
00:43:03We can exchange those oversized pajamas.
00:43:06Mm-hmm.
00:43:07Check out some Christmas stuff.
00:43:20All right.
00:43:40Any other rules I should know about?
00:43:42Uh, yes.
00:43:43You're never fully dressed without a smile,
00:43:45so don't leave home without one.
00:43:46Okay, Annie, I'm serious.
00:43:48No, no.
00:43:49It's smooth sailing from here.
00:43:50Just keep being your wonderful self.
00:43:52Okay.
00:43:53My sister and I,
00:43:54we used to be obsessed with this thing.
00:43:56Mm-hmm.
00:43:56We used to say it was the Polar Express
00:43:58and play train conductor and passengers.
00:44:00Oh, you guys must have been such cute little kids.
00:44:03I was 14.
00:44:04No, not as cute.
00:44:09Wow.
00:44:10Oh.
00:44:15Okay, so,
00:44:18what was your favorite Christmas memory growing up?
00:44:22I don't know.
00:44:22I guess it was the anticipation.
00:44:24Mm-hmm.
00:44:25Like, it was almost better not knowing what the gifts were
00:44:27than opening the gifts themselves.
00:44:29Right.
00:44:30Like, it could be anything.
00:44:31The possibilities were endless.
00:44:33Right.
00:44:33And then every so often you'd get something that was just exactly perfect.
00:44:39The perfect thing.
00:44:40Mm-hmm.
00:44:41And you wouldn't think about any of the other possibilities
00:44:43because it was just exactly right.
00:44:46Mm-hmm.
00:44:47Hold on a sec.
00:45:05Last piece.
00:45:07Come.
00:45:08No, thanks.
00:45:09You sure?
00:45:10Yeah.
00:45:13We should go.
00:45:14Yeah.
00:45:15I don't want to be late for snowman building.
00:45:26Hope you got coal in your stocking, Mrs. Rabbit.
00:45:30What was that?
00:45:31What?
00:45:31No, nothing.
00:45:34Well, hello there, Graham.
00:45:36Who is it?
00:45:37Say it's Carol Singers.
00:45:38Love Ashley.
00:45:39Nice.
00:45:40It's Carol Singers.
00:45:41What?
00:45:42Never mind.
00:45:43See, I told you it was a classic.
00:45:45Come in.
00:45:46Come in.
00:45:48Make yourselves at home.
00:45:49Thanks so much.
00:45:51Graham.
00:45:52Mrs. Hempstead, lovely to see you.
00:45:54Oh, you too.
00:45:55This is Leah.
00:45:56Leah, this is Mrs. Hempstead.
00:45:57So nice to meet you.
00:45:58Thank you for having us.
00:46:00No problem.
00:46:01Graham?
00:46:02There's someone here who's very anxious to see you.
00:46:04Oh.
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Graham?
00:46:05Oh, I'm so happy to see you.
00:46:14Wow.
00:46:16Hi.
00:46:18Hi.
00:46:19I'm Leah.
00:46:20Julia Hempstead.
00:46:21Nice to meet you.
00:46:22Nice to meet you.
00:46:23Wait.
00:46:25I know you.
00:46:26Yeah.
00:46:27You broke my vases.
00:46:30Or your vases broke when they hit my arm, hard to say.
00:46:34It was an accident.
00:46:38When I took your mom into town, I stopped at a pop-up store, and there were a couple of
00:46:41vases.
00:46:42Is it vases or vases?
00:46:43It's vases.
00:46:44Vases.
00:46:44There were a couple of vases that were, some might say, precariously placed on the edge of
00:46:50a table, and I broke them.
00:46:54Oh.
00:46:55I'm sorry about that.
00:46:56Well, we don't get many bulls running around our china shop.
00:46:59Oh.
00:46:59Oh, of course.
00:47:00Well, let's let bygones be bygones, right?
00:47:05It's Christmas.
00:47:06Tis the season.
00:47:07Oh, I'm so happy to see you, Grammy.
00:47:09Yeah.
00:47:10Graham was my first love.
00:47:11Yeah.
00:47:12Yeah.
00:47:13I'm sure he's told you about me.
00:47:14Yeah.
00:47:14It was a long time ago.
00:47:15Not that long ago.
00:47:17We dated for three years.
00:47:19Oh.
00:47:19Off and on.
00:47:20Mostly on.
00:47:21Yeah, very much off in between the ons.
00:47:22Oh, oh, Bonnie.
00:47:28Oh, Mrs. Westwood, Merry Christmas.
00:47:30Oh.
00:47:31Bonnie, Bonnie.
00:47:33Oh, Bonnie.
00:47:34Good to see you.
00:47:35Yeah.
00:47:35Let's talk.
00:47:36Okay.
00:47:38Got all Mrs. Rabbit.
00:47:41I'll take your coat.
00:47:42Great.
00:47:43Okay.
00:47:44You didn't tell me you guys were together for three years.
00:47:53Off and on, I said.
00:47:55Hey, we're just friends now.
00:47:56I promise.
00:47:57Yes.
00:47:58You know what?
00:47:59They have a lot more food here than at my parents' house.
00:48:01You want to ransack the pantry?
00:48:03Yeah.
00:48:04Fuck.
00:48:06Exactly.
00:48:08Graham.
00:48:09Come and look at our old yearbook.
00:48:11It's a scream.
00:48:11Do you remember that kid Angus who, like, never went to class?
00:48:14He's a literal brain surgeon.
00:48:17Come and see, please.
00:48:19Oh, I don't know.
00:48:20No, no, no.
00:48:21It's fine.
00:48:21I'm going to get some food and a drink.
00:48:24Can I get you that drink?
00:48:25No.
00:48:25Brilliant opportunity.
00:48:27Clever, Julia.
00:48:28You must be so proud of it.
00:48:29She did it all herself.
00:48:32We were just talking about Julia opening her boutique on Main Street right here in town.
00:48:36Oh, Mrs. Rabbit.
00:48:37Yeah, it's adorable.
00:48:38It is so adorable.
00:48:39I get all my hostess gifts there.
00:48:42Retail, it's such an exciting business.
00:48:44Risky, though, because, you know, you can really lose it all.
00:48:46But exciting.
00:48:47Good luck to her.
00:48:48This is her third location.
00:48:50Where is it now?
00:48:51She has two stores in Boston where she lives for the moment.
00:48:54She's been enormously successful.
00:48:57Now all she needs is a husband.
00:48:59Whoa.
00:49:00Sorry.
00:49:00You okay?
00:49:01Yep.
00:49:01No?
00:49:02No?
00:49:02I'm okay.
00:49:03I just went down the wrong way.
00:49:04Okay.
00:49:04Would you?
00:49:05No, I'm okay.
00:49:06Guys, are we going to do that snowman building thing?
00:49:09I'm so excited for it.
00:49:10Yes!
00:49:11Let's do it, shall we?
00:49:12I'm just going to go upstairs and change, and then we can get to it.
00:49:17Great.
00:49:17Now, let's go.
00:49:18Now, as always, there is a theme to our snowman-making extravaganza.
00:49:25Since Julia has opened her new store, we thought it would be fun if the snowmen were an homage
00:49:31to the classic elegance that is Mrs. Rabbit.
00:49:34The classic elegance.
00:49:37Thank you, Michelle.
00:49:38You may use any of the supplies provided here.
00:49:42As well as the snow.
00:49:43Of course.
00:49:44It's so funny, Betsy.
00:49:45Now, break into teams of two.
00:49:48You have exactly one hour starting now.
00:49:53Mitchell, come here.
00:49:54I want my one.
00:49:55Bring the box.
00:49:56Who's on Grammy?
00:49:57The old-time scene?
00:49:58Oh, I don't know.
00:49:59No, no, no.
00:49:59It's okay.
00:50:00Go on.
00:50:00Have fun.
00:50:01I want that one.
00:50:02Don't worry.
00:50:03We will have much more fun without him.
00:50:06Yeah.
00:50:06Here you go.
00:50:08May I offer you some snow, madame?
00:50:11Sure.
00:50:12Can you step up, please?
00:50:13Okay.
00:50:14Let's get started.
00:50:15You got it?
00:50:18Yeah.
00:50:19Last one.
00:50:22Oh, perfect.
00:50:23You are so strong.
00:50:25Me?
00:50:25Yeah.
00:50:26Yeah.
00:50:26Thanks.
00:50:28She is in fine form today.
00:50:31I didn't really say dated for three years.
00:50:35Hey, I know this is a lot, but I've really never seen Graham so happy as he is with you.
00:50:41Oh, thanks.
00:50:44Can't make it too good because then I don't want to risk beating your mom again.
00:50:47Well, no, it's a little bit different.
00:50:4815, 15 minutes.
00:50:51Okay, 15 minutes.
00:50:53I'm going to go get the years.
00:50:55Okay.
00:50:57And snow down.
00:50:59Hands up.
00:51:00Oh, well done, everyone.
00:51:07Oh, girls.
00:51:10Hmm?
00:51:10You, uh, didn't quite hit the mark.
00:51:14Nope.
00:51:14I guess we didn't.
00:51:16But yours, Mrs. Westwood, yours looks amazing.
00:51:21So beautiful.
00:51:22And I feel like we can all agree.
00:51:24Claire, when you're over here, right?
00:51:26It's not a contest, honey.
00:51:30It's an exhibition.
00:51:32They're all part of a display, a display of our families coming together through art.
00:51:40This one doesn't fit in.
00:51:45I tried to tell you.
00:51:52You guys, you guys.
00:51:53Come on, you know what this snowman is just perfect for?
00:52:02A snowball fight.
00:52:04Oh, no.
00:52:07Game on.
00:52:10No.
00:52:10No.
00:52:10No.
00:52:11No.
00:52:11Oh, my God.
00:52:18Okay.
00:52:19Come on, man.
00:52:19We're getting it now.
00:52:20Come on.
00:52:20Come on.
00:52:21I'm so sorry, Barb.
00:52:34Uh, Ra.
00:52:35Uh, Ra.
00:52:41Mitchell, I think this is a very good moment to go inside.
00:52:44Yep.
00:52:44Don't you?
00:52:45Yeah, sure.
00:52:45Sure.
00:52:46Sure.
00:52:46Sure.
00:52:46Sure.
00:52:46Sure.
00:52:46Sure.
00:52:46Sure.
00:52:51I have to go.
00:52:54Leah.
00:52:56Leah, wait.
00:52:59Leah.
00:53:01Leah, where are you going?
00:53:02I don't know.
00:53:03I don't know.
00:53:04Easy, slugger.
00:53:06Is something wrong?
00:53:07Is something wrong?
00:53:08I just assaulted your mom with a snowball.
00:53:10Your ex is in love with you.
00:53:12And I'm clearly just bad at Christmas.
00:53:15Leah, you're not bad at Christmas.
00:53:17It's not even a thing.
00:53:18My mother, she'll be fine.
00:53:19She's a lot tougher than she looks.
00:53:20And I told you, I don't have feelings for Julia.
00:53:24I never really did.
00:53:25It's just something my parents pushed on me.
00:53:28Yeah, because your mom loves her.
00:53:29She didn't take her ornament off the tree.
00:53:32Grandma, I feel like an outsider around your family.
00:53:35I feel like everything I do is the wrong thing.
00:53:37Okay.
00:53:38Okay.
00:53:38I hear you.
00:53:39I feel like an outsider almost anywhere I go unless I'm with you.
00:53:44And for the record, I did just start a snowball fight in your honor.
00:53:48True, true sacrilege.
00:53:50I did appreciate that.
00:53:53Did you know that she charged me $300 for those vases?
00:53:56I don't know.
00:53:57Sorry, vases?
00:53:58It actually is vases.
00:53:59That's what I thought.
00:54:01Hey, guys.
00:54:03Everyone's about to go home, and I think I'm going to tell them about business school tonight.
00:54:08Really?
00:54:09Now?
00:54:10After all that?
00:54:11Yeah.
00:54:13Okay.
00:54:14Well, I mean, we support you, whatever you want.
00:54:17Okay.
00:54:18Mm-hmm.
00:54:23Christmas is coming.
00:54:25The goose is getting fat.
00:54:26Police have put the penny in the old man's head.
00:54:29If you haven't got a penny, a heypenny will do.
00:54:32If you haven't got a heypenny, then God bless you.
00:54:36Bravo.
00:54:38Bravo.
00:54:39Wait, so is this turkey?
00:54:41Goose for Christmas Eve, and turkey for Christmas Day.
00:54:46Yeah, tradition.
00:54:47Mm-hmm.
00:54:48Oh, Mitchell.
00:54:49Yeah.
00:54:49Did you bring up the carving set from the basement?
00:54:51Oh, well, was I supposed to?
00:54:52Oh.
00:54:53Well, I distinctly remember asking.
00:54:55Oh.
00:54:56Maybe someone could invent an app that would remind someone to bring in the carving set.
00:55:01That'd be a good one.
00:55:02You know what?
00:55:04I'm going to get the carving set.
00:55:07The carving set is coming.
00:55:09Our son will be right back.
00:55:11When he brings it to me, then I will hack.
00:55:13Oh.
00:55:14No?
00:55:14No?
00:55:15No?
00:55:15Okay.
00:55:17Yeah.
00:55:20You know, it's funny.
00:55:21Ebenezer Scrooge always makes Goose sound like it would be so rich and delicious.
00:55:26But really, it's quite lean, with its own distinct odor.
00:55:31Huh.
00:55:33Is something wrong, Madeline?
00:55:35Uh.
00:55:36She might be nervous starting the MBA program.
00:55:38You know how she gets.
00:55:39Oh, yes, I do.
00:55:40Well, someone better figure out a way to perk up a little bit, or she'll get coal in her stocking.
00:55:46I'm not going to business school.
00:55:57Yet.
00:55:58Ever.
00:55:58Ever.
00:56:01What are you saying?
00:56:03I'm saying I don't need an MBA because I am starting my own artisanal pickle company in Brooklyn.
00:56:12None of those words make any sense to me.
00:56:16I think that's awesome, Mads.
00:56:18Hmm.
00:56:19What?
00:56:20I love pickles.
00:56:20Well, at least I can count on my gremlin to stick to the plan.
00:56:24Hmm.
00:56:25What?
00:56:25What plan is that?
00:56:26Oh, to come back to Connecticut.
00:56:28It worked for me at the bank.
00:56:29Oh, right, yeah, that plan.
00:56:34You know what?
00:56:35It's okay, Mom.
00:56:36If Maddie wants to take a couple more years to figure out what she wants to do with her life, power to her.
00:56:41Let's just enjoy Christmas, okay?
00:56:44Yep.
00:56:46This is delicious, and this is Westwood.
00:56:48Well, thank you.
00:56:50I'm so glad that someone appreciates all the hard work that went into this.
00:56:53Yeah, and you know what would be great with this?
00:56:56Artisanal pickles.
00:56:57Gen Z.
00:57:05I think Grandma would be really happy.
00:57:12Oh, Leah.
00:57:15Oh, you don't need to clear the table.
00:57:17No, please.
00:57:19You're our guest.
00:57:20I'll get it.
00:57:20Okay.
00:57:20Okay.
00:57:27What was that about?
00:57:31What, am I not allowed to talk to my mom?
00:57:34No, no, of course.
00:57:36I...
00:57:36Never mind.
00:57:37You know, you never told me that your plan was to move back here and work with your dad and then lead this, like, perfect life.
00:57:46Well, they're not perfect.
00:57:48They're my family.
00:57:49And I...
00:57:50But they are perfect, okay?
00:57:51And everything has to be perfect.
00:57:53It's why she took down my ornament, because it didn't fit.
00:57:55Okay, I don't fit.
00:57:57I'm like Alice in Wonderland.
00:57:59Too big, too small, except at least she had cake all at her little shreds of goose.
00:58:04Okay, I understand.
00:58:05I do.
00:58:05Graham.
00:58:06Um, will you come help me, please?
00:58:09Yes, mother.
00:58:10I'll be right there.
00:58:13Just so you know, this whole thing with my dad, the whole thing he does, trying to get me to come back and work for him at his bank, he does it every single time I see him.
00:58:22It's...
00:58:22It's nothing.
00:58:35Oh.
00:58:36We're hanging the stockings.
00:58:38We care.
00:58:39Uh-huh.
00:58:40I got one for you, too, Leah.
00:58:42Aw.
00:58:43With your name on it.
00:58:44Oh, that's so cute.
00:58:47All they had left at the store were novelty stockings.
00:58:50Well, you know, they say the best gifts come in small packages, so...
00:58:53Like diamonds.
00:58:58Oh, no, I didn't...
00:58:59I didn't mean it like that.
00:59:01I just meant, um...
00:59:03I don't...
00:59:03I don't know what I meant.
00:59:04Oh, I am tired.
00:59:11Are you tired?
00:59:12Yeah, I think I could go to sleep, too.
00:59:14Thank you so much for today, Mrs. Westwood.
00:59:17Night.
00:59:17Don't forget about your Christmas Eve gift and the PJs.
00:59:23Really?
00:59:26Sorry.
00:59:27Thank you for standing up for me.
00:59:28I really appreciate it.
00:59:30Yeah, of course.
00:59:31And they'll come around.
00:59:32Well, that's what I asked Hannah for this year, so we'll see.
00:59:36And they're going to come around to you, too.
00:59:39Mm, thank you.
00:59:40Oh, I know it.
00:59:43Hey, guys.
00:59:44Well, good night.
00:59:47Good night.
00:59:50Hey.
00:59:51Hey.
00:59:53Sorry about downstairs.
00:59:54Look, I play along with my dad because it's easier than telling him I'm not coming back
01:00:00here to work at his bank.
01:00:03Let's just say it's not always them canceling plans to see me.
01:00:06Got it.
01:00:08Well, I'm sorry, because I didn't...
01:00:10I didn't realize that...
01:00:13That I was protecting you from my family?
01:00:15No, that you were protecting yourself from your family.
01:00:21It's not just you that feels like you can't measure up.
01:00:23Well, I see you measuring up.
01:00:26And maybe it's time for you to give them the chance to see it, too.
01:00:33Yeah.
01:00:35You're right.
01:00:39Good night.
01:00:40Good night.
01:00:41Good night.
01:00:53All right, everybody, remember just one special gift and no peeking for tomorrow.
01:01:19Let's get started, Madeline.
01:01:26Pencils.
01:01:27Big ice cubes.
01:01:30I love them.
01:01:33Those are gonna look so good on you, Mom.
01:01:35I hate.
01:01:37And I got something from me to Leah.
01:01:41What?
01:01:41Here, have a seat.
01:01:42I got you something small for tomorrow, too.
01:01:52What did you do?
01:01:57Oh.
01:01:58Wow.
01:02:00Yum.
01:02:02It's a gift basket.
01:02:05It's from a catalog.
01:02:06Yeah.
01:02:07Yeah.
01:02:09Open it.
01:02:10Something special in there.
01:02:15Here, here.
01:02:15Let me help.
01:02:20Ta-da.
01:02:22Some candy violets.
01:02:26Yeah.
01:02:27I remember you always said you loved them when you were little.
01:02:30Yeah.
01:02:31Yeah.
01:02:31Yes.
01:02:32Yes.
01:02:32I did say that when I was little.
01:02:37Oh, Graham.
01:02:38Sweetheart.
01:02:38You haven't opened a gift yet.
01:02:40I guess not.
01:02:41What about this one from Leah?
01:02:43Oh, no.
01:02:44You know what?
01:02:44You don't have to because I didn't know about the tradition and it's the only one that I brought.
01:02:49That's okay.
01:02:50I can open it tomorrow if you want.
01:02:52No.
01:02:52You know what?
01:02:52It's fine.
01:02:53Yeah.
01:02:53You can open it.
01:02:54Sure?
01:02:55Yeah.
01:02:56Okay.
01:02:56Okay.
01:03:01You can rip it.
01:03:03Oh, right.
01:03:04Oh, my God.
01:03:34Oh, yeah.
01:03:35This is beautiful.
01:03:37It's every date we've ever been on chronologically.
01:03:45I mean, it's...
01:03:46I don't really...
01:03:51It's...
01:03:53You know what?
01:03:54It's silly.
01:03:56Um...
01:03:57I'm gonna go change into, um...
01:04:01Not this.
01:04:16Merry Christmas Eve, sugar plums.
01:04:17Sure.
01:04:18What?
01:04:21He got me a food basket.
01:04:23Like a Harry and David fruit with the cute little jackets on?
01:04:26No.
01:04:27The kind of food basket with summer sausage and aged cheddar.
01:04:31The kind of food basket that you send to the person who does your taxes.
01:04:34Well, at least it's food.
01:04:36Mm.
01:04:37That's true.
01:04:38But I got him a photo album of every date we've ever been on, and he looked at it like, like...
01:04:45I don't know.
01:04:45Like, he was scared.
01:04:47Sarah, you know how people are always like, the signs were there?
01:04:49I just didn't notice that.
01:04:50What if this is the sign that I should have noticed?
01:04:53What if he's trying to tell me something without actually having to tell me?
01:04:56Summer sausage is a weird way to say it.
01:04:59Do you need me to come get you?
01:05:01Ugh, no.
01:05:02No, you know what?
01:05:02I'll be okay.
01:05:04Oh, Leah.
01:05:05I just...
01:05:06I didn't know Christmas would be this hard.
01:05:09I know.
01:05:10It's so weird.
01:05:10It's like suddenly Graham and I don't know each other at all.
01:05:14Ugh.
01:05:17Ooh.
01:05:18Natties.
01:05:20Are you eating in the bathroom?
01:05:23Yeah.
01:05:24We have to go to this Christmas pageant, too.
01:05:26The theme is dress as your favorite Christmas movie character.
01:05:29Well, maybe he's just really bad at buying gifts.
01:05:31No.
01:05:32Could be.
01:05:33Look, if you and Graham aren't in it for the long haul, better to know now, right?
01:05:42Ho, ho, ho, ho!
01:05:45It's Mitchell.
01:05:46Yeah.
01:05:46I'm sorry.
01:05:48I'm sorry.
01:05:49I'm sorry.
01:05:50You're good, right?
01:05:52Yeah, let's go see.
01:05:56This was constructed by Graham's girlfriend, Leah.
01:05:59She's kind of a genius.
01:06:00Hey, you're embarrassing.
01:06:01You know what?
01:06:02Don't even...
01:06:02Don't even listen to her.
01:06:03I'm just saying she's really good.
01:06:05Stop.
01:06:06Well, if you weren't so...
01:06:07Don't look quiet.
01:06:08Ex-girlfriend.
01:06:09Tenth grade.
01:06:11Cute.
01:06:12She'll say she's straight out of a Christmas carol.
01:06:14We'll love to be the ghost of her Christmas future.
01:06:16Can I ask why we're avoiding her?
01:06:19I don't have a reason.
01:06:21Well, that's your reason.
01:06:23Okay.
01:06:24Go.
01:06:24Okay.
01:06:24Go.
01:06:25I just don't understand those people in Grammy Tate Tops.
01:06:36Well, at least they're not in their feed.
01:06:38Mom, I can't argue with you about this anymore.
01:06:40Die Hard is a Christmas movie.
01:06:43This is all just not what I had in mind.
01:06:45I know.
01:06:46Maybe it's not.
01:06:47And maybe that's a good thing.
01:06:48Change can be a good thing, Mom.
01:06:51What are you saying?
01:06:52Leah.
01:06:54Leah's good for me.
01:06:55I just...
01:06:56I want you to try to be a little more flexible with her.
01:06:59Okay?
01:07:01Of course.
01:07:07We can be more flexible, son.
01:07:10It's great to hear that.
01:07:11Because I've been meaning to tell you...
01:07:13I can't come back and work at the bank.
01:07:18I know.
01:07:20I've always known.
01:07:21But you can't fault a guy for trying, right?
01:07:24I appreciate you saying that.
01:07:26I know you love me, son.
01:07:28Listen, I gotta say hi to some people, but I want to run some ideas about you later.
01:07:32Can't wait.
01:07:33Oh, well, then I was thinking I could...
01:07:34Oh, not now.
01:07:35All right.
01:07:37Hey.
01:07:37Hey.
01:07:38Hey.
01:07:39Hey.
01:07:40Hey.
01:07:40Whoa.
01:07:42What are you?
01:07:43An angel.
01:07:44Can't you just see me on top of a tree?
01:07:49Who's Carol Singer?
01:07:51No, it's from Love, actually.
01:07:54Oh, I don't watch reality TV?
01:07:57No, it's not.
01:07:59You know what?
01:07:59I've had a very long day, and the summer sausage was very distressing.
01:08:02So I'm just going to go check out some decorations.
01:08:05Yeah, wait.
01:08:06Actually, Graham, some friends from high school wanted to say hi.
01:08:09Yeah, go say hi.
01:08:11It'll be fun.
01:08:11Go.
01:08:12Julia.
01:08:12Julia!
01:08:12Julia!
01:08:13Hi!
01:08:21This is Westwood.
01:08:28Oh, hello, Leah.
01:08:31Hi.
01:08:31Are you okay?
01:08:33Do you need anything?
01:08:33No, thanks.
01:08:35I'm fine.
01:08:37You're hiding in a coat check.
01:08:39You don't really seem fine.
01:08:42Yeah, well, that's just it, isn't it?
01:08:45Sometimes everything looks fine.
01:08:49And underneath all the trappings, it's just not fine at all, is it?
01:08:55I'm so sorry.
01:08:57Oh, honey, it's not your fault.
01:08:59It's not?
01:09:00No.
01:09:01I thought that I ruined your Christmas.
01:09:04Ruined?
01:09:06How?
01:09:07Well, you have this whole perfect system of the way you like to do things,
01:09:10and then I came in like a fly in the ointment and just made everything messy.
01:09:15Oh, yeah.
01:09:20I like you.
01:09:23But more than that, I admire you.
01:09:25You are accomplished and you are independent.
01:09:29And Graham is absolutely gaga for you.
01:09:32You may have noticed that I am just not the best with change.
01:09:38I thrive on consistency and predictability and rules.
01:09:43I cling to a tradition.
01:09:45You know, I even make the same meals my mother used to make.
01:09:50Although, to be honest, I don't even like cooking.
01:09:54I just do it because my kids rave about my food.
01:09:57Yeah, I mean, of course.
01:09:58That maybe I've been clinging a little too hard.
01:10:07I should have been more welcoming to you.
01:10:09I'm sorry.
01:10:11I just put so much pressure on these small windows of time with my kids.
01:10:17You're bringing something new and fresh to our family.
01:10:28I'm just afraid of losing my son.
01:10:31No, no.
01:10:33I really understand, but you don't have to worry about that.
01:10:37I mean, he's always going to be your son.
01:10:39And I'm just trying to figure out how I can fit into all of this.
01:10:44And look, I know that change is really hard, but I'd really like to get to know you better.
01:10:52Well, I would really like to get to know you better, too.
01:10:57Can I ask one thing?
01:11:06Mm-hmm.
01:11:06How come you took my ornament off the tree?
01:11:10Hmm?
01:11:11Sorry, the terrarium.
01:11:12Oh, it was so beautiful.
01:11:14I just...
01:11:15Can I be honest with you?
01:11:18Please.
01:11:19Okay, I appreciate it, but honey, it's just not my style.
01:11:24But I do love that you thought of me, though.
01:11:26Yeah, it's not very Christmassy, is it?
01:11:29Well...
01:11:30Hey, you call it even for the PJs?
01:11:34Even.
01:11:36Yeah.
01:11:37You make my son very happy.
01:11:41And that is the best Christmas gift I could ever get.
01:11:46Little sweetheart.
01:11:48I'm gonna, um...
01:11:56I'm gonna go find Graham.
01:11:57Okay.
01:11:58Okay.
01:11:58Okay.
01:11:58Leah, I overstepped.
01:12:14I've made a fool of myself, and it's just really hitting me now.
01:12:17As I have a halo circling my head.
01:12:21Look, you know, you and Graham, you have a history, and I...
01:12:24I get it.
01:12:25It's in the past.
01:12:26Way in the past.
01:12:28Okay, well, for the record, I think that the halo is very cute.
01:12:32Merry Christmas, Leah.
01:12:34Merry Christmas, Julia.
01:12:38Hey, you haven't seen Graham, have you?
01:12:41Uh, yeah, I think he went outside.
01:12:43Okay, thank you.
01:12:44Oh, my God.
01:13:14Oh, look, it's carol singers.
01:13:17Finally, thank you.
01:13:19Hey, Trisha, have you seen my boyfriend?
01:13:21He's about, like, yay high, dressed like Scrooge.
01:13:24General store in town.
01:13:25How can you be so sure?
01:13:26Mom?
01:13:27Dad?
01:13:30Cookie, what are you doing here?
01:13:32What am I doing here?
01:13:33What are you doing here?
01:13:34Um, we came to ask for directions.
01:13:36To where?
01:13:38Sorry, Trisha, these are my parents.
01:13:41Guys, this is Trisha.
01:13:42Hi.
01:13:43Hey.
01:13:44Hi.
01:13:45Leah, what are you doing here?
01:13:47Well, I was coming, I was looking for you.
01:13:49But how did you know I...
01:13:51Well, I have your location.
01:13:52Oh.
01:13:53Why weren't you more surprised to see them?
01:13:54Oh, what are you guys doing here?
01:13:59Um, Sarah called us and she said that Leah was very hungry.
01:14:03It had been naturally, we panicked.
01:14:05So we just jumped in the car right away and head over to the Westwoods.
01:14:08And then we got lost because your father doesn't like that lady's tone.
01:14:11She is so condescending, that GPS person.
01:14:14Honestly, who does she think she is?
01:14:16So we just stopped to ask for directions and look who we ran into.
01:14:19You.
01:14:20You.
01:14:20It's a two-hour drive.
01:14:23Oh, there's no traffic on Christmas Eve.
01:14:24Oh, we made very good time.
01:14:25An hour and a half without traffic, they always say.
01:14:28Did they say that?
01:14:30You know what?
01:14:31Now that you guys are here, why don't we go back to the house?
01:14:34That is a great idea.
01:14:36Super idea.
01:14:37Oh, my goodness.
01:14:39What is going on?
01:14:40This is weird.
01:14:41You're being weird.
01:14:42I know.
01:14:42Everything's totally cool.
01:14:43Everything's totally normal.
01:14:44What is going on, you guys?
01:15:06What is going on, you guys?
01:15:36I never gave up.
01:15:38Not on them, not on us, or on the magic of Christmas.
01:15:44You're my adventure buddy, my teammate, my love.
01:15:49That is the most words he has said his entire life.
01:15:52Shh.
01:15:53And thirdly, I didn't get you a food basket for Christmas.
01:15:58I mean, technically, I guess I did.
01:16:00But that wasn't the main prism.
01:16:05That...
01:16:05Hang on.
01:16:06Oops.
01:16:07My bad.
01:16:08Our engagement anniversary.
01:16:11Will you marry me?
01:16:13Yes.
01:16:13Yes.
01:16:14Yes.
01:16:15Of course.
01:16:15It's that.
01:16:16Sometimes.
01:16:17I love you so much.
01:16:27I love you so much.
01:16:28It is a very emotional time.
01:16:38It is a very emotional time.
01:16:38You did good.
01:16:39You did good, honey.
01:16:49Oh, we're going to be mishpucha.
01:16:51What?
01:16:52Family.
01:16:53Oh.
01:16:54I can't wait for the ring.
01:16:55I can't wait for my first Christmas turkey tomorrow.
01:16:58Oh.
01:16:59I forgot the turkey.
01:17:03I forgot the turkey.
01:17:05I am so sorry.
01:17:06I...
01:17:07Don't worry.
01:17:09We have a very good idea.
01:17:12It's a bit of a drive, but it's worth it.
01:17:15Wow.
01:17:16This is a perfect mistake.
01:17:20Perfect.
01:17:23Welcome to the family, sweetheart.
01:17:26Merry Christmas.
01:17:38Oh, Merry Christmas.
01:17:40Why are we whispering?
01:17:41We're supposed to be in our rooms until they're ready.
01:17:46Hey, what would happen if we just went downstairs?
01:17:49Like, would Christmas be canceled?
01:17:51Or is Santa really down there?
01:17:54We don't know.
01:17:55It's over here.
01:17:59Kids, we're ready.
01:18:01Okay.
01:18:02Oh, my gosh.
01:18:04Where did you guys get those cute, huh, Koopijis?
01:18:07Barbara got them for us.
