00:04If you were a teacher, I would fill your class, take a nap, over and over till you notice me.
00:17If you were a waiting room, I would never see a doctor, I would sit there with my first day.
00:32I'm gonna be the power ballad that lifts you up, that holds you down.
00:39I wanna be the broken love song that feeds your misery, and I can wish all that I want, but
00:51it won't bring us together.
00:53Plus, I know whatever happens to me
00:58I know it's for the better
01:06So...
01:08So...
01:11You learned some new tricks.
01:14Oh, well...
01:15I don't need to know how.
01:22So...
01:25Hmm, about this?
01:27Yeah, I hope it's for her.
01:37Okay?
01:38Yeah.
01:39Do you need anything?
01:40Do you know how much longer it's going to be?
01:42No, it shouldn't be that long.
01:43Okay.
02:02She's gone.
02:14Oh, thank God you're here.
02:16Okay, they're both okay.
02:17Merit's in the back with the doctor.
02:18She has a mild concussion.
02:20Yeah.
02:20Wait, Flora?
02:21Still waiting to be seen.
02:22She's...
02:23She's all right.
02:24Why don't you go check it?
02:24We'll be over here.
02:25Okay.
02:25Yeah.
02:28Hi.
02:29Hey.
02:30Are you okay?
02:32What the hell happened?
02:33They took Jenny's car.
02:35No, that much I know.
02:35I'm sorry.
02:36Merit and I have taken the car out a couple times now, so...
02:39You knew about this?
02:41I know she has her permit, but no, not this.
02:43So what?
02:44They were just out joyriding your car?
02:46They weren't joyriding.
02:47Your son took the car with Flora in it and almost killed them both.
02:50We usually just, like, drive around, but...
02:53Tonight, Merit was upset, and he was...
02:58He was drinking, and I didn't know.
03:01And he's been drinking a lot lately, and he was drunk at the party.
03:06And I should have told Lori, but I...
03:08I just didn't...
03:09I should have told her.
03:10I'm sorry.
03:11I'm so sorry.
03:12Hey.

03:14I'm so sorry, honey.

13:54I'm not doing anything for Christmas
13:56The decorating
13:57The cookies
13:57Alright, calm down
13:59It's a special ingredient
14:01Spice
14:01I think
14:03I can't read it
14:04Well, it can't be all that important
14:06Just make them without it
14:07I can't
14:09It's Mom's recipe
14:10They won't be her cookies
14:14She told it to me last Christmas
14:17I can't remember what she said
14:21Forget it
14:21Oh
14:24Justin
14:24Hey
14:25It's okay
14:28Anything that you bake
14:30Will taste great
14:31Yeah, and we'll help you
14:32We'll make our own special ingredient
14:34Yeah
14:35That's what Mom would do
14:36And they'll still have Mom in them
14:39I promise
14:41Okay
14:42Let's do it
14:43Definitely flowers

15:00Merry Christmas
15:01Hey, buddy
15:08Merry Christmas
15:09Huh?
15:12Merritt
15:13What?
15:16I can't believe you invited the Jeffreys
15:18It's like
15:19So awkward
15:20I invited them because we love them
15:22And they love us
15:23And we work through our problems
15:26Uh-huh
15:28I'm sorry, but this whole Christmas
15:29Is just feeling super fake
15:33I...
15:34I know, it's weird, Merritt
15:36We're all trying here
15:37How's it gonna work tomorrow?
15:39We get two Christmas mornings
15:41One here and one at your crappy townhouse
15:43Hey
15:43Merritt, hey
15:46Look, I'm sorry
15:47I...
15:48I hate that you're still this upset, son
15:52Come on, man, tell me what I can do to make things better
15:54You can stop asking me how you can make things better
15:57Figure it out yourself
15:59You know, you're the reason Flor and I broke up
16:02You're the reason she hates me now
16:03We were doing great
16:04And then you came over
16:05And you were so worried about her
16:07Not me
16:07You didn't even think about me
16:08Your own son
16:09You just assumed I'd hurt her
16:10Poor innocent Flora
16:13Merritt, I'm sorry
16:14Okay, I never meant to, like...
16:15Don't...
16:16Don't worry about it
16:19You were right
16:28No...
16:29That was wrong of me
16:31Okay, to put any of that on you
16:33To make you feel
16:38Merritt, I'm so proud to be your dad
16:41I am
16:43Do you know how very special you are, son?
16:46I don't want you ever thinking any less of yourself because you're not
16:52Mi hijo
16:54Yo te quiero con todo el alma
16:59Tadoro
17:00Okay?
17:03I'm sorry
17:16Merry Christmas

17:39Merry Christmas
17:39Merry Christmas
17:51Okay, I know things are bad between us, and you don't want to talk about it, and I know you're
17:54pissed at my brother, I totally, I am too, but I don't want that to make things even worse
17:59Okay, so we are gonna talk
18:01Now
18:03Okay?
18:12Let's go for a walk
18:15Okay
18:22Hey, thanks for saying something to Dakota, by the way, you know, you didn't have to do that
18:25Well, did it help?
18:27No, of course not, she's the worst
18:30Yeah
18:34Penn
18:35Mm-hmm?
18:36I'm really sorry
18:41About how I handled everything with your mom
18:44You know, she was like my second mom
18:47That's how I think of your mom
18:50I didn't really know what to say, or do, or, um...
18:58I blew it
19:03I'm coming in for the bear hug
19:05I'm coming in
19:06Oh, big group hug
19:11Big group hug
19:17You know, I think about your mom like everyday
19:23So I should have tried harder
19:26To understand what you've been going through
19:30It's okay
19:32You know, I don't even understand
19:34I kinda don't want to
19:37And, uh, I've just...
19:40I think I've been trying not to be me
19:43You know, it's easier to be a cool cheerleader than a sad PK
19:48You know, more fun too
19:51Or, you know, I thought...
19:55I'm really sorry, Penn
20:03I'm really sorry, too
20:08So I quit cheer, by the way
20:10Wait, no, you're serious
20:11Actually, you...
20:13And, uh, no, I don't really know what I'm gonna do instead
20:16But...
20:17Truth, it really sucks doing it without you
20:22Well...
20:23You can always join wrestling
20:24I mean...
20:25I don't know, I think that's all yours
20:26Don't worry
20:28But...
20:29Maybe...

24:10Yes
24:11But you slept with me

24:20Okay
24:21Okay, well, old habits aren't all bad
24:23I mean, I like that old habit
24:25Maybe we make it a new habit
24:28David
24:29David
24:29David
24:29Knew it was nice
24:31Okay, it was more than nice
24:33And it was probably necessary
24:35Lori, it doesn't mean anything
24:37Okay...
24:37It happened
24:38Yeah
24:38Right?
24:38It is what it is
24:39Yeah

24:58That misses you
25:00Clearly there is
25:03But I'm pretty confident that you and I sleeping together
25:07Was a step backwards, not forward
25:16I'm sorry
25:18I'm sorry
25:18No
25:19No, I'm sorry
25:21Okay
25:21We should go
25:24Well, I...
25:28Why don't you stay here tonight?
25:30Not with me
25:31I mean on the couch
25:34And then you could be here in the morning
25:36For the kids
25:39Thank you
25:41That'd be amazing
25:42Yeah
25:49For God so loved the world that he gave his only son
25:52So that everyone who believes in him may not perish
25:55But may have eternal life
25:59Thank you, Pastor Harris
26:03John 3, 16
26:05This year my heart brings me to this
26:07This simple verse
26:09This humble
26:09Beautiful sacrifice
26:11That God
26:11Would send his only son
26:14So that we could have eternal life with him
26:18What a gift
26:20In such a small package
26:21What
26:22Hope and peace
26:23And joy
26:24And love
26:28You know, I've been thinking
26:29About all the packages under the Jeffries tree
26:32All the
26:33Wrapped gifts
26:34Piled up there this year
26:35I'm guessing
26:36I'm guessing your trees are probably the same
26:39And how tomorrow morning
26:40We will be sitting there surrounded
26:42By a sea of wrapping paper
26:44And open gifts
26:47But Christ's gift to us
26:49The real gift of Christmas
26:51Is eternal
26:52Unwrapped not once
26:54But over and over again
26:56Opened not just tomorrow morning
26:58But every day
26:59Friends
27:01Christmas is holy
27:03About God's love
27:04I encourage you
27:06To celebrate
27:07His gift to us
27:08God sacrificed
27:09His only son for us
27:11Live in honor of that gift
27:13That sacrifice
27:14Put love and care for others
27:16Ahead of self
27:17Live that gift
27:19Live that sacrifice
27:21Amen
27:22Amen
27:23Amen
27:37What are you, what are you, what are you doing here?
27:39Where are you going?
27:41I, uh,
27:43I can't
27:45I can't, I can't listen
27:48Um
27:51I, I
27:53I feel
27:55So, so awful
27:59That night
28:02When you asked me to come over
28:05The reason I didn't
28:09I was, I was drunk
28:12I wanted to be with you
28:13I, I, I really
28:14I really did
28:17I'm like
28:18Dad
28:24I got scared
28:31And I ruined everything
28:32I'm so sorry
28:34Hey, hey, hey
28:37It's, it's good that you feel awful
28:40I mean, it's, it's good to feel awful
28:45It is?
28:46Yeah, hey, trust me
28:48Feeling something is so much better than feeling nothing
28:56And you're not alone
28:57I, I'm, I'm your friend
29:01I, I do want you in my life, Larry
29:10Well
29:11With our families, it's not like you really have a choice
29:17Yeah
29:19Yeah
29:21I mean, you know
29:27Oh
29:37What a holy night
29:39How blessed we are with these gifts of Christmas

30:29Thank you
30:29It's the night
30:31It is the night
30:32Of our dear Saviour's birth
30:39Long lay the world
30:43With sin and error pining
30:48Till he appeared
30:51And the soul felt its worth
30:57A thrill of hope
31:01The weary world rejoices
31:06For yonder reigns
31:10A new and glorious morn
31:14Fall on your knees

32:09Merry Christmas
32:10Merry Christmas
32:13Come on, all righty
32:15All right
32:15You're coming
32:16Hey, no presents until Coco, Mom's rule
32:19Got you, got you
32:21There you go
32:21Careful
32:21Boom
32:23Let's take it hot
32:24Kind of
32:25Okay
32:27You guys
32:28You guys always used to get up so early
32:31On Christmas morning
32:32I don't know how she did it
32:33But somehow your mom always managed to beat you downstairs
32:37I have Coco waiting
32:51All right, Justin, let's open some presents, huh?
32:54Come on, show me what we got
32:57Okay
32:59It's calling my name
33:00Oh
33:02Oh, you're right
33:03You're right
33:04Okay, wait, let me take that
33:05It's a pretty good haul
33:09Actually
33:11There's one more
33:14What did you do?
33:16What?
33:16Come on
33:23I didn't say anything
33:25What?
33:30You said you always wanted one
33:32Oh
33:33Oh my gosh, David
33:37There's a lot of things I should have done a long time ago, Lori
33:40But it's not too late for me to start doing them now
33:44It's not too late for us
33:47Um, this is very sweet
33:51But...
33:54I'm not the same person I used to be, Lori
33:57David
33:58David
33:58You...
33:59You are barely two months sober
34:03I'll always be an alcoholic
34:07I'm always gonna be in recovery
34:12You know, my sponsor said
34:13Shame doesn't help anything
34:16He's right
34:19I don't want to beat myself up anymore
34:22I don't want to beat myself up anymore
34:22I don't want to go backwards
34:25Living alone these last few months
34:26I've realized I've taken everything
34:28I took the kids, I took you
34:29I took it all for granted
34:32I'm not gonna do that again
34:33No matter what happens here
34:36Listen to me
34:39I can be happy again, Lori
34:42We can be together again
34:43We just need to decide to do it
34:48It's not that simple
34:52Isn't it?
34:57Why didn't you say all this stuff a year ago?
35:01I wasn't here a year ago
35:06I am now
35:07I am now
35:24What's this one?
35:26I don't know
35:27That was under the Christmas decorations and stuff
35:31I thought it was from you, Dad
35:32No, not from me
35:34I see
35:41Why don't you open it?
36:04Merry Christmas, you loved Mom
36:08Merry Christmas, you loved Mom
36:21There's something for everyone
36:23Did you know about this?
36:28It's Mom's jewelry box
36:34It's Mom's jewelry box
36:37Is that for me?
36:55Thank you
37:11Here, let me
37:14Here we go
37:15Come on
37:16Thank you
37:16No, not from me
37:19I lay in a manger
37:22No crib for a bed
37:25The little Lord Jesus lay down with sweet head
37:31It's you
37:32It's me
37:34It's me
37:35Looked in the sky, look down where he lay.
37:40The little Lord Jesus asleep on my hay.
37:47I think he likes Christmas better.
37:51Say hi to Daddy, Justin.
37:54Say hi to Daddy.
37:55Say hi to Daddy.
37:59I know, I know, it's okay.
38:02Look at how happy you made her.
38:11It's from my mom.
38:13Pan.
38:37Smile.
38:52I'll see you later.
38:54Absolutely.
38:59I'll see you later.
39:24Bye, Mommy.
39:40Bye, Mommy.
40:03My dearest Malcolm, Merry Christmas.
40:07How I wish I was there to celebrate with our beautiful children, with you.
40:15My gift for you is my hope for your future.
40:20A hope that you find love again.
40:25Someone who loves our kids as much as we do.
40:32Someone who shares your faith, who loves God as we do.
40:38Someone who truly, deeply cares for you.
40:44Someone you love.
40:47Someone who loves you.
40:51My dearest Malcolm, this is my hope, and my peace, and my joy, my love.
40:59With the children of God as we do.
41:45Hi. I was just thinking. I mean, I can't believe you're here.
41:50Oh, I need to talk to you.
41:52I need to talk to you.
41:53I am so confused, Malcolm.
41:56Well, I'm not. Not anymore.
41:58You know, the other day, a few weeks ago, you said that we aren't good for each other.
42:03But that couldn't be further from the truth.
42:06You're nothing but good for me.
42:11I love you, Lori.
42:14And I know that scares you to hear.
42:15So before you run back inside, I just I want to say it's not because I'm lonely or because I'm
42:20grieving or because I'm frightened of the future or that we're easy.
42:24I mean, come on, who are we kidding?
42:26You and I are definitely not easy.
42:29It's because you are the person.
42:33You're the person that I want to spend every day and every night with.
42:43Are you going to say something?
43:10I am so confused, Malcolm.
43:12Um, I don't know what to do.
43:16Like, because on the one hand, I have this new guy, Joe, and he's totally into me.
43:21And, you know, I'm pretty into him, too.
43:23And he wants to, like, take me away on vacations and spend all the time with me that I'll let
43:30him.
43:30And he's, like, all potential, you know, like, an unknown.
43:37But I slept with David the other night.
43:45David?
43:46Yeah.
43:46I thought you and Joe...
43:47No, I know.
43:48I know.
43:48It was totally fear-based and probably, like, self-destructive, you know.
43:53But then, Malcolm, he wants back in.
43:57And he's saying all these things.
43:59If he had said them sooner...
44:01But he didn't.
44:03And I know that.
44:04But he's the father of my children.
44:08Right?
44:09And he is a known quantity.
44:10And, like, I woke up this morning and I saw them with him.
44:17I don't know.
44:18Maybe he's right.
44:19Maybe it's not too late for us to be a family again.
44:29Laurie, I can't...
44:31I can't tell you what to do.
44:33Well, I know.
44:36But could you anyway?
44:38I don't know.
44:40Uh...
44:41Trust yourself.
44:42You know, you'll find your way forward.
44:47Oh, I'm sorry.
44:48I'm doing all the talking.
44:49You came to me.
44:50What did you want to talk about?
44:53I just, uh...
44:55I wanted to say Merry Christmas.
44:59Merry Christmas.
45:01You want to come in?
45:02No, no, no, no.
45:03I should get back.
45:04Okay.
45:07Good night.
45:08Get in there.
45:13No, it's for the better.
45:17No, it's for the better.
45:21No, it's for the better.
45:24No, it's for the better.
45:28No, it's for the better.
45:31No, it's for the better.
45:32No, it's for the better.
45:33No, it's for the better.
