00:02:14Good morning Chicagoans and thank you for tuning in to the Windy City Wake Up, Chicago's number one morning radio
00:02:19show.
00:04:04CastingWords
00:04:05Six months? When is the right time?
00:04:08Listeners out there, does anyone have any thoughts on this? I would say that the nine-month mark is a
00:04:14sweet spot.
00:04:15Here's Dolly.
00:04:16Ooh, looks like we have our first caller.
00:04:19You are live with Maggie and Jack.
00:04:22Jack!
00:04:28What are you doing?
00:04:29I slept too late to pack a lunch.
00:04:30I know. I know. I covered for you, remember?
00:04:34I know. I covered it for you, remember?
00:04:35Now, what is that?
00:04:36Looks like fruitcake from last week's Christmas party.
00:04:38Jack, no, that's from over a week ago.
00:04:41Yeah, but it's fruitcake.
00:04:42Here, I brought some leftovers from Christmas dinner.
00:04:45Oh, amazing.
00:04:48The phones were flashing brighter than a Christmas tree this morning.
00:04:52Who knew that meeting your partner's family would spark up such a heated debate?
00:04:55And here I thought I was the only one trying to avoid it.
00:04:59Besides you, of course.
00:05:02I am not avoiding anything.
00:05:04Hunter will meet the whole gang when the time is right.
00:05:05He's gonna get eaten alive.
00:05:07Okay, just because you don't like him doesn't mean everyone else is gonna feel the same way.
00:05:10I like him.
00:05:12It's just...
00:05:13What?
00:05:15He wears a lot of sweater vests.
00:05:17Sweater vests, really? That's all you've got?
00:05:19It's unsettling.
00:05:21I think he's got a deep, dark secret.
00:05:25You are worse than my dad.
00:05:27You find a reason to dislike every guy that I have ever introduced you to.
00:05:32Or they have failed to find a reason to be liked by me.
00:05:46Great show today, you guys.
00:05:48Thanks, Deb.
00:05:49Christmas cookie.
00:05:50Ooh, don't mind if I do.
00:05:52Good numbers?
00:05:53Great numbers.
00:05:54People are tweeting like crazy about their own meet-the-family stories.
00:05:57Hashtag Windy City Wake Up is trending.
00:06:00Right on.
00:06:01Gets better.
00:06:01Jed Crawford from Satellite Radio just called.
00:06:05Satellite Radio?
00:06:07What did they say?
00:06:07That they're interested in taking Windy City Wake Up to a national level.
00:06:13Are you kidding me?
00:06:14Uh-uh.
00:06:14Is this a joke?
00:06:15Mm-hmm.
00:06:16Is this like the time you said Mandy Moore called the station for a date with me?
00:06:18Oh, yeah, that was a good day.
00:06:20Forget that.
00:06:21This is amazing news.
00:06:23You bet it is.
00:06:24They want to do a crossover for the next five days to see if you appeal to their audience
00:06:27before any big moves are made.
00:06:29For real?
00:06:29Mm-hmm.
00:06:30This is amazing.
00:06:31I think I'm speechless.
00:06:32That never happens.
00:06:33No one has chemistry like you guys.
00:06:35It's time for the country to hear what I've always known.
00:06:38Windy City Wake Up is great radio.
00:06:40Simple as that.
00:06:42Thanks, Deb.
00:06:42But no matter what, you are our producer.
00:06:44You gotta come with us.
00:06:45No question.
00:06:46Well then, we better make these next five days count.
00:06:51Good job, you two.
00:06:54Max!
00:06:55Where are we now?
00:06:56Our chance to make a real impact.
00:06:58This is what we've always wanted.
00:06:59Ever since our ridiculous high school show.
00:07:01Lunch Wake Up with Maggie and Jack.
00:07:04I think this calls for the best friends forever power shake.
00:07:07Oh no, Jack, no.
00:07:09What?
00:07:09It's the shake.
00:07:10It marks when we officially became best friends.
00:07:12You're too good for the shake.
00:07:13Come on.
00:07:17Focus.
00:07:18Passion.
00:07:19Personality.
00:07:20Jack and Maggie forever.
00:07:22Yes!
00:07:22Uh, am I interrupting anything?
00:07:25Hunter, you're here early.
00:07:27Oh, is that a problem?
00:07:28No, of course not.
00:07:29I like your sweater.
00:07:30Where'd you get it?
00:07:31The mall, yeah.
00:07:32Uh, they were on sale because Christmas is over.
00:07:34We should go.
00:07:35I'll be back in an hour.
00:07:38Bye.
00:07:44It's never gonna last.
00:07:49So, anyway, we're gonna start doing crossover episodes beginning tomorrow.
00:07:54That's, wow, that's, that's great.
00:07:56Uh-oh, what's wrong?
00:07:58No, it's, I was, I was listening to your show this morning and it felt like you and Jack were
00:08:03making fun of the fact that Serena and I are not invited to dinner tonight.
00:08:06Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:08:07We embellish things for the show.
00:08:09And trust me, I want you to meet the whole Russo-Quinn gang, but in due time.
00:08:14But I am warning you, they are nuts.
00:08:17But why can't I just meet your father and your sister?
00:08:20What do the Russos have to do with us?
00:08:24Well, you know, our dads are like a package deal.
00:08:27We do everything together.
00:08:28We may not be family by name, but we are family.
00:08:31So, if we end up together, um, you're telling me that we would be spending the holidays with
00:08:39Jack's family every time?
00:08:41This is about Jack, isn't it?
00:08:44I mean, you guys are always texting.
00:08:46You have all these inside jokes.
00:08:47You, you, you, you have a secret handshake.
00:08:49I mean, it's a bit strange.
00:08:51Hunter, like I told you, Jack and I, we've known each other our entire lives.
00:08:56If something were to happen, it would have happened by now.
00:09:00We're just friends.
00:09:02I promise you.
00:09:04You ever, um, you ever had feelings for him?
00:09:09No.
00:09:10Of course not.
00:09:12Okay.
00:09:15Sweater vest on point today.
00:09:17You look incredibly charming.
00:09:19You look like Superman.
00:09:20I have a thing for him.
00:09:32You excited to tell everyone the big news?
00:09:34Oh, yeah.
00:09:34My dad's probably going to be so proud, he'll break out the 1967 Chateau Batiste.
00:09:40And I'll shine my 2019 rosé?
00:09:43He wouldn't dare.
00:09:47You okay?
00:09:48Something on?
00:09:49I don't know.
00:09:50Hunter and I had a weird conversation today.
00:09:53About what?
00:09:53He was bummed he wasn't invited tonight.
00:09:55You too?
00:09:56Serena was not impressed with our segment.
00:09:59She made me promise to invite her next year.
00:10:01Wow.
00:10:02So we're thinking long term.
00:10:04That is a first.
00:10:05Eh.
00:10:06Who knows what the future holds?
00:10:07And that is why you're perpetually single.
00:10:11Yeah.
00:10:12I'm a realist.
00:10:26Hey, hey.
00:10:27Hey, hey, hey, my boy.
00:10:30Mwah, dad.
00:10:31Mwah.
00:10:32I just saw you yesterday.
00:10:33Ha, ha, ha.
00:10:34Margaret, you look ravaging, as always.
00:10:37Thank you so much, Martin.
00:10:39Hi, dad.
00:10:43Interesting show today.
00:10:44What is this nonsense about you two being scared of bringing your partners to meet us?
00:10:49Dad, remember when I brought Robbie Martho to Thanksgiving?
00:10:51All that interrogating.
00:10:52He nearly choked on his turkey.
00:10:54Probably still needs therapy after that night.
00:10:56Now that wasn't entertaining Thanksgiving.
00:10:57Robbie was a bonehead.
00:11:00For crying out loud, he was a Red Sox fan.
00:11:02He was from Boston.
00:11:05Hi.
00:11:06Hi, honey.
00:11:09Would you put this on the table?
00:11:10Is there any potatoes in this, or is it all just butter?
00:11:14Did you ask them about the show?
00:11:15Come on, Mom.
00:11:16You know you can't take that stuff personally.
00:11:18Well, maybe if you actually did introduce us to one of your girlfriends, you would see that
00:11:23we can behave ourselves.
00:11:24Ah, ah, ah, ah, speak for yourself, Barb.
00:11:26Oh, no.
00:11:27Maggie.
00:11:27Maggie.
00:11:28Oh, hi.
00:11:29Loved the crockpot.
00:11:30You really nailed it this year.
00:11:32Oh, I'm so glad that you liked it.
00:11:34Betrayal.
00:11:34Okay.
00:11:35Oh.
00:11:36There they are.
00:11:38Yay!
00:11:39Traffic was unbelievable.
00:11:41I was my favorite guy today.
00:11:43I'm good, Grandpa.
00:11:44On a scale of one to ten, how did Santa do this year?
00:11:48Eight and a half.
00:11:49Good enough.
00:11:50Better than last year.
00:11:51Go give your aunt a hug.
00:11:52Hi.
00:11:53So, did you hear their radio show this morning?
00:11:56No, we missed it.
00:11:57What happened?
00:11:58Okay.
00:11:59Let me ask you something.
00:12:00Yeah.
00:12:01What was it like meeting Nancy and me for the first time?
00:12:04Don't remind me.
00:12:06Watching the movie Meet the Parents felt like watching a documentary.
00:12:11Are you talking to me?
00:12:13Are you talking to me?
00:12:15Okay, listen, everybody.
00:12:17Maggie and I have some exciting news.
00:12:19Oh, let me guess.
00:12:21You've decided to sell your baseball card collection so I can finally clear out the attic.
00:12:25Not a chance, Mom.
00:12:26Those cards are an investment.
00:12:27Wait and see.
00:12:28It's better, okay?
00:12:30The Windy City will be airing nationally on satellite radio starting tomorrow.
00:12:36Wow.
00:12:37Our very own Jackson and Margaret are going to be famous.
00:12:40You know what this calls for?
00:12:42Here it comes.
00:12:43A group hug.
00:12:44A what?
00:12:45Come on.
00:12:46Come on.
00:12:47Come on.
00:12:48Group hug.
00:12:49Group hug.
00:12:49Group hug.
00:13:09mommy, do you want some cranberry?
00:13:13Maggie.
00:13:14Did you want some cranberries?
00:13:16Well, thank you.
00:13:18All credit goes to my lovely wife.
00:13:20Thank you, darling.
00:13:24I miss Grandma Nancy's stuffing.
00:13:27Me too, buddy.
00:13:29Her stuffing was always the best.
00:13:32She left big shoes to fill, but her spirit's always with us.
00:13:38So, how are tickets selling for the annual New Year's Eve party?
00:13:47What are those looks for?
00:13:49Oh, come on. Let's not talk business during dinner, huh?
00:13:52You serious? You love talking shop.
00:13:55It's fine. People are still in Christmas mode.
00:13:58We'll sell more in the next few days.
00:14:01They used to sell out in a day.
00:14:03Well, unfortunately, times are changing.
00:14:06Well, should we be worried?
00:14:08Not at all. Now, please, let's enjoy this delicious dinner, shall we?
00:14:14Can you pass the potatoes, please? Is there any left?
00:14:17Trade you for the turkey, or you can pass your plate around.
00:14:19It's about 40 pounds. I don't want to break my back.
00:14:22Do you mind?
00:14:28Bye, Dad.
00:14:29Well, thank you all so much for the new material for our show.
00:14:34And, Amanda, thank you so much for the desserts. They were amazing.
00:14:37Thanks, sis. Mom's famous recipe.
00:14:39I helped.
00:14:41That must be why it's so good.
00:14:43Bye, guys.
00:14:44Bye.
00:14:45See you later.
00:14:45Bye.
00:14:46Safe journeys.
00:14:53Dad, what's going on with the bar?
00:14:55Nah.
00:14:59What can I say, kid?
00:15:01Seems like no one comes out of listening to live jazz anymore.
00:15:03Well, this place has been a Chicago stable since the 30s.
00:15:06Don't people know that?
00:15:08I mean, every famous jazz musician who ever lived has played here.
00:15:11I know it, son.
00:15:16But that may just be the end of an era.
00:15:26How old are you?
00:15:31God.
00:15:53Sam from Cincinnati, you are on the air.
00:15:55And what can we help you with today?
00:15:57Well, I just met my girlfriend's parents over Christmas.
00:16:00Ever since, she's been really distant.
00:16:02I'm worried her parents told her they think she can do better.
00:16:05You see, this is what I've been talking about.
00:16:07Family.
00:16:08Interfering with a perfectly good thing.
00:16:09How long have you guys been together?
00:16:11About three months.
00:16:13What'd I tell you?
00:16:14Too early.
00:16:15My advice, Sam, is next time you see her parents, ask a lot of questions.
00:16:18People love talking about themselves.
00:16:20Oh, I sure do.
00:16:20And remember, to treat their daughter like the princess she is.
00:16:24That way, they know you're a gentleman.
00:16:26Huh.
00:16:27Okay.
00:16:27That's not a bad idea.
00:16:28Look, Sam, meeting the parents is like beating Bowser's castle in Super Mario.
00:16:35Complete that level, and the rest is smooth sailing.
00:16:38Know what I mean?
00:16:39Totally.
00:16:40Thanks.
00:16:40You're welcome, bud.
00:16:41Good luck.
00:16:42Seriously?
00:16:44That's your advice?
00:16:45Not everything has to be complicated.
00:16:47Okay, time for a quick commercial break.
00:16:50Don't blow away out there.
00:16:52The Windy City Wake Up will be right back.
00:16:55You're a child.
00:16:57But that's good advice.
00:17:02Today was great.
00:17:03So many new callers from all over the place.
00:17:06I think it was one of our best shows yet.
00:17:07Hopefully Judd Crawford agrees.
00:17:09Speak of the devil, any word from the higher-ups?
00:17:14Did they like us?
00:17:16I don't know how to tell you guys this, but...
00:17:18Oh, no.
00:17:19They hated us.
00:17:20No, I'm just being silly.
00:17:24They loved it.
00:17:26Not cool, Deb.
00:17:28In fact, they loved it so much that they want you to host a New Year's Eve segment live on
00:17:33the air.
00:17:33You'll introduce Serena and Hunter to both your families.
00:17:37Uh, they want us to introduce them to our families on the air?
00:17:41On New Year's Eve, yeah.
00:17:42Isn't that stepping a bit into their privacy?
00:17:43I just don't think Hunter would agree to do it.
00:17:46Jokes aside, I think it's a little early for me to take that step with Serena.
00:17:50Come on, this is national exposure we're talking about here.
00:17:53You could reach millions of people if this deal goes through.
00:17:55Unless you'd rather stay local forever.
00:17:59She's right.
00:18:00This could be our only chance to go big.
00:18:04Well, where do they want us to do it?
00:18:05They're looking for a venue that isn't already sold out for New Year's.
00:18:08Hold on.
00:18:09This is perfect.
00:18:10How about we do it at the Magnolia?
00:18:11The Magnolia?
00:18:12Yes, it'll help boost sales for the club.
00:18:14It would mean a lot of free advertising.
00:18:16It's a win-win.
00:18:17So, is that a yes?
00:18:20Let's do it.
00:18:21But she's it.
00:18:22Perfect.
00:18:22Get confirmation from Hunter and Serena by the end of the day.
00:18:27This is the best news ever.
00:18:29Oh, it's all happening.
00:18:30Nothing can get in the way of our dreams now.
00:18:33Okay.
00:18:34Ow.
00:18:35Let me tap.
00:18:36Take the back.
00:18:38Oh.
00:18:39Oh.
00:18:39Oh.
00:18:56Maggie.
00:18:57Jack.
00:18:58What are you two doing here?
00:18:59We need to ask you something.
00:19:00Sure.
00:19:01Anything.
00:19:01Uh, within reason.
00:19:04So?
00:19:05What do you think?
00:19:06The Magnolia will be broadcast across the whole country.
00:19:11What do we think?
00:19:12Come on.
00:19:15Of course we agree.
00:19:17This is wonderful.
00:19:18The whole country.
00:19:19Wow.
00:19:20Our prayers have been answered.
00:19:22Great.
00:19:22We'll call Deb and tell him you guys are in.
00:19:26We've got to take down these Christmas decorations and start dolling this place up for New Year's.
00:19:31Hey, man.
00:19:31Let's go find that New Year's box right now.
00:19:34Dad.
00:19:36This is going to be just like the old days.
00:19:40Oh.
00:19:42I love seeing them so excited.
00:19:44Me too.
00:19:45This is going to be great.
00:19:46Yeah.
00:19:47Now all we have to do is get Serena and Hunter to sign on.
00:19:50We're having dinner at my place tonight.
00:19:52I'll call you after.
00:19:53Perfect.
00:19:57He's pretty good, eh?
00:20:00My mom loved this song.
00:20:15Hunter, I've been trying to call you all day.
00:20:18I'm just getting a bit worried.
00:20:20Anyways, I have exciting news.
00:20:22So, call me back.
00:20:26Oh.
00:20:29Hunter.
00:20:30Where have you been?
00:20:31Are you okay?
00:20:35Wait.
00:20:37What?
00:20:38You're not being serious.
00:20:43Let's just talk about this.
00:20:45Oh.
00:20:46Hold on.
00:20:47Someone's at the door.
00:20:50I know, Hunter, but let's just talk about this.
00:20:53We need to...
00:20:54Jack, what are you doing here?
00:20:56We need to talk.
00:20:58No, I don't know why he's here.
00:21:00He just showed up.
00:21:03Hunter, you're not being rational.
00:21:04Let's just talk about this.
00:21:08So that's it?
00:21:10You've made up your mind?
00:21:12Just like that?
00:21:14What?
00:21:16What?
00:21:28Are you okay?
00:21:32I just got dumped.
00:21:36Well, if that isn't just the cherry on top.
00:21:38The cherry on top of what?
00:21:40Serena just broke up with me, too.
00:21:43This is so bad.
00:21:46Oh.
00:21:49Yeah.
00:21:50Oh, Jack.
00:21:52Yeah.
00:21:55What kind of person breaks up with you over the phone?
00:21:58Everyone knows the two-week cutoff is for a text breakup
00:22:01and one month for a call breakup.
00:22:03I mean, come on.
00:22:04Man up, Hunter.
00:22:05Forget about that.
00:22:06What are we going to do about the New Year's Eve show?
00:22:08We need a plan.
00:22:09Is that seriously what you're thinking about right now?
00:22:11Yes.
00:22:12This is our big break.
00:22:13No, you know what?
00:22:13This is a disaster.
00:22:14I need to call Deb.
00:22:15A-S-A-P-
00:22:16Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:22:17We can't call Deb.
00:22:19Well, how are we supposed to do the Meet the Parents segment
00:22:21if we have no dates to introduce them to?
00:22:23We will hire people.
00:22:26Actors.
00:22:27To pretend to be Hunter and Serena.
00:22:28Mm-mm.
00:22:29That's a terrible idea.
00:22:30Why?
00:22:32Hunter's face is all over my social media.
00:22:35Right.
00:22:37I can't believe I'm single.
00:22:41Again.
00:22:45How else can we make the New Year's Eve segment a home run?
00:22:48Are you not even sad about Serena?
00:22:51Of course.
00:22:53But if it wasn't meant to be, it wasn't meant to be.
00:22:55You know, for two people that make a living giving relationship advice,
00:22:58we're sure not very good at relationships.
00:23:02What could possibly be funny right now?
00:23:03A fan just tweeted she thinks you and I should be together,
00:23:05and it got, like, 2,000 likes.
00:23:07Yeah, I know.
00:23:08They've wanted us to be together ever since we started.
00:23:11That's it.
00:23:12What's it?
00:23:15What if, on New Year's Eve,
00:23:17you and I surprise the fans by telling them that we are together?
00:23:21What?
00:23:23Jack, no.
00:23:24Think about it.
00:23:25The fans will go wild.
00:23:27It'll be front-page news.
00:23:29We get crazy ratings,
00:23:30and the execs would see how many people care about our show.
00:23:32It's a no-brainer.
00:23:33This is insane.
00:23:34You mean genius?
00:23:36You're actually serious about this, aren't you?
00:23:39Satellite radio, Maggie.
00:23:41Okay, but what happens when they find out it's a lie?
00:23:44They never need to know.
00:23:45After we go national,
00:23:47we'll let it slip that we casually decided to remain friends.
00:23:51No, Jack, this is a bad idea.
00:23:54Maggie, with a national show,
00:23:56we'd be able to help millions of people across the country.
00:23:59Which is what we've always wanted.
00:24:01Think of the book deals we get offered.
00:24:03Okay, now you're getting ahead of yourself.
00:24:04And?
00:24:05The Magnolia needs it.
00:24:06There's no getting around that.
00:24:07I don't know about you,
00:24:08but I'm not ready to accept the end of an era.
00:24:13This is crazy.
00:24:15Max,
00:24:17you're my best friend.
00:24:18I wouldn't want to do this with anyone else.
00:24:22Say yes.
00:24:25Say yes.
00:24:28Say yes.
00:24:30Captain, say it, Maggie.
00:24:32Let me hear it.
00:24:33Say it.
00:24:35Yes.
00:24:35Yes.
00:24:36Yes.
00:24:38Yes.
00:24:40Are you sure she's going to buy it?
00:24:42She's known us a really long time.
00:24:43I know.
00:24:44I mean, you usually go for the quirky book, Worm,
00:24:47and I usually date you.
00:24:49Sexy and cool?
00:24:50That's not what I was going to say.
00:24:52I can be sexy and cool, you know.
00:24:55Oh, you find that funny?
00:24:56No.
00:24:57It's just that I've known you for so long
00:24:58that it's hard to see you that way.
00:25:01Well, you better start,
00:25:02or else we're never going to convince her.
00:25:06Maybe we should be kissing when she comes in.
00:25:10Just get caught in the act.
00:25:14Kissing?
00:25:15Like on the mouth?
00:25:16Yes, on the mouth.
00:25:17Look, we need her to really believe we're a couple,
00:25:19or else she's never going to let us go through
00:25:20with a New Year's Eve party.
00:25:22Okay, but I need to know what I'm working with.
00:25:23Let me smell your breath.
00:25:25Are you serious?
00:25:25Yeah.
00:25:33When was the last time you brushed your teeth?
00:25:34This morning, like a regular person.
00:25:36Just a peck.
00:25:37No theatrics.
00:25:37Of course, just a peck.
00:25:38I'm not insane.
00:25:39Well, this whole thing is insane,
00:25:40and it's your big idea.
00:25:41She's coming.
00:25:44You ready?
00:25:45Are you sure about this?
00:25:46Of course not.
00:25:47Okay, go.
00:25:52Here's Jack!
00:25:54Maggie!
00:25:54Mom, Dad?
00:25:55What are you guys doing here?
00:25:57What's going on?
00:25:58Well, we came to meet Deb
00:25:59to work out the party details.
00:26:02Am I losing my marbles,
00:26:04or were you two just...
00:26:07Kissing!
00:26:08Yes, they were kissing!
00:26:10Kissing?
00:26:11What are you talking about?
00:26:12What about Serena and Hunter?
00:26:14Oh, um...
00:26:16It's a long story.
00:26:18We broke up with them.
00:26:19What?
00:26:19Can someone please tell me what's going on?
00:26:21Oh, well, they're in love.
00:26:23We always knew this day would come.
00:26:26Is this true?
00:26:28We've been denying our feelings for so long,
00:26:31we just couldn't push them away any longer.
00:26:37Yes!
00:26:39My boy!
00:26:41This is amazing!
00:26:42Incredible.
00:26:43Our listeners are going to lose their minds.
00:26:47No, no, that's the thing.
00:26:48We have to keep it a secret until the New Year's Eve party.
00:26:50No one else can know.
00:26:51Of course.
00:26:53The fans are in for a big surprise.
00:26:55You know, I always thought you two had a thing for each other.
00:26:59This is wonderful.
00:27:00This is absolutely wonderful.
00:27:03We're going to have to tell your dad, Maggie.
00:27:06No, no, no, no.
00:27:07We don't have to tell Steve.
00:27:08Uh-huh.
00:27:09He'll run me out of town.
00:27:10Oh, nonsense.
00:27:10We can't keep this from him.
00:27:12Meet us at the Magnolia afterwards so we could be your backup.
00:27:15And I'll pack my taser, you know, just in case things get out of hand.
00:27:20Oh, I simply could not be happier.
00:27:27Or you have made our year.
00:27:29No, and mine too.
00:27:31Bye now.
00:27:32Bye.
00:27:33Take care.
00:27:34Bye-bye.
00:27:36So cute.
00:27:36Bye-bye.
00:27:46Did you see all their faces?
00:27:49I mean, I've never seen them so excited.
00:27:52Wait, wait, wait.
00:27:53What happens when they find out that we've been lying to them?
00:27:57Well, they don't need to find out.
00:27:59After New Year's, we reveal we decided not to risk our friendship.
00:28:03Uh, I don't know, Jack.
00:28:05This seems like a really, really bad idea.
00:28:08It's fine.
00:28:09We used to prank our families all the time.
00:28:11What's the difference?
00:28:13Remember that April Fool's Day when we covered all the bathroom toilets
00:28:17to the Magnolia with plastic wrap?
00:28:19Your dad turned into the Hulk?
00:28:21Exactly.
00:28:23He's gonna kill me, isn't he?
00:28:35Dad?
00:28:36Are you okay?
00:28:41Dad?
00:28:44Steve, don't be hasty.
00:28:48It's time to crack open the 1967 Chateau Baptiste.
00:28:53Let's celebrate!
00:28:57Oh, it's a Jack sandwich.
00:29:01Okay, Dad.
00:29:02Okay.
00:29:02Okay.
00:29:02Okay.
00:29:09So you just realized at exactly the same time you had feelings for one another.
00:29:14Yeah, pretty much.
00:29:17Oh, it's neat.
00:29:18So, who made the first move?
00:29:20Jack.
00:29:21Who was it?
00:29:23Me.
00:29:27The truth is, it was both of us.
00:29:29One night, we were working late at the studio and decided to order a pizza,
00:29:33and the next thing you know, we are making out like two ravenous animals.
00:29:38Okay, let's get you to pop this.
00:29:41Oh, no, no, no, Dad.
00:29:42Don't waste that on us.
00:29:43It's not like we got engaged.
00:29:44Yeah, I don't really feel comfortable opening it.
00:29:47It's far too expensive.
00:29:48Well, we have all been waiting many years for this day.
00:29:54Unless your intentions with my daughter aren't pure.
00:29:57No, no, they are.
00:29:58They are.
00:29:59Definitely pure.
00:30:00Then pop it open, son!
00:30:02Okay.
00:30:04Okay.
00:30:06Okay.
00:30:07Yay!
00:30:12It's open.
00:30:13It's open.
00:30:14Great.
00:30:19My dad had been saving that wine for five decades.
00:30:22If he finds out that we wasted it on a lie, we are both dead.
00:30:26He can never know.
00:30:28I'll marry you if I have to.
00:30:29Oh, how romantic.
00:30:30Did you have any clue that everyone wanted us to be together so badly?
00:30:35No, none.
00:30:36Although I did hear my mom say something to my dad back in the day, but that was dumb.
00:30:41What did she say?
00:30:43Remember when I signed up for the school talent show to play that stupid song I wrote?
00:30:48Mm-hmm.
00:30:49But it wasn't stupid.
00:30:51And remember how even more stupid I decided to practice in front of you all at the Magnolia?
00:30:55Mm-hmm.
00:30:56My dad filmed it.
00:30:57Yeah, that fact haunts me to this day.
00:30:59Anyway, that night I heard my mom say to my dad that the way you were looking at me was
00:31:04the same way your mom looked at your dad when he played back in the day.
00:31:08How?
00:31:10Like I said, I was trying to make something out of nothing.
00:31:18Well, I did always love hearing you play, mostly for your off-beat lyrics, so she was right about that
00:31:23part.
00:31:24That was a long time ago.
00:31:30I really wish that you kept playing, Jack.
00:31:34No way.
00:31:35After running off stage in the middle of the talent show.
00:31:38Do you know how embarrassing that was?
00:31:41I'll stick to karaoke with a friend.
00:31:43Well, that's a shame.
00:31:46Because I think that you're really good.
00:31:53Well, anyway, I better go.
00:31:55We have an early morning.
00:31:57Oh, God.
00:32:06Good night, Jack.
00:32:25And don't forget, tickets go on sale today at noon for our New Year's Eve.
00:32:28Meet the parents' party at the Magnolia.
00:32:30Come hang out with Maggie and me as we introduce our significant others on air to our crazy families.
00:32:36Who knows how it'll go.
00:32:37Party starts at 8 with music, food, drinks, and fun to follow.
00:32:41Live from Chicago, the Windy City Wake Up with Jack and Maggie is signing off.
00:32:45So remember, don't blow away out there.
00:32:51Hey, hey, hey.
00:32:52I've got great news.
00:32:54Judd Crawford called and invited you two to a cocktail reception tomorrow night.
00:32:58Wait, wait.
00:32:58We're going to meet Judd Crawford?
00:33:00He's a radio icon.
00:33:01He's happy with the numbers on his end, and he wants to meet you.
00:33:06I think my heart just skipped a beat.
00:33:10Plus, I told him your little secret, and he's absolutely thrilled, so.
00:33:13You told him?
00:33:14It was supposed to be a surprise.
00:33:16Oh, trust me.
00:33:16Someone like Judd Crawford doesn't want any surprises.
00:33:19He's more than happy with the news, and he thinks it's going to have everybody buzzing.
00:33:23The Judd Crawford thinks we're going to have everybody buzzing?
00:33:25This is a really big deal.
00:33:26Also, take a look at the posters for the party.
00:33:31Judd plastered them all over the city this morning, and Judd and his team are pushing it
00:33:34all across their social media.
00:33:36Tickets are going to sell fast.
00:33:37It says here there's going to be a live video stream of the event on their website.
00:33:41Yes.
00:33:42They decided that they wanted to hear and see you all across the country.
00:33:49Is that a problem?
00:33:51No, of course not.
00:33:53Sounds good.
00:33:53Anything for Judd.
00:33:55Exactly.
00:34:03That's good.
00:34:04Yeah, it's huge.
00:34:04That's good.
00:34:16I'm still in shock.
00:34:18Judd Crawford?
00:34:19What do you think I should wear?
00:34:21Since when do you care what someone thinks of your outfit?
00:34:24Uh, since Judd Crawford personally invited us to one of his parties.
00:34:28I mean, aren't you excited?
00:34:30You'll be your new boss soon.
00:34:33Maggie.
00:34:38Maggie.
00:34:39Wait, wait, Maggie.
00:34:45We've only been broken up for two days, and he's already out with another woman.
00:34:49And this coffee shop was our spot.
00:34:51Maybe she's just a friend.
00:34:58Am I that easily replaced?
00:35:00No, of course not.
00:35:02Listen to me.
00:35:03You're one of a kind.
00:35:04Come on.
00:35:07I gotta go.
00:35:08Clear my head.
00:35:09Maggie.
00:35:10Wait.
00:35:11Come on.
00:35:15Come on.
00:35:16Come on.
00:35:53Surprise.
00:35:54What are you doing here?
00:35:55We're going to your favorite spot, Maple Hill.
00:35:58And I have a thermos full of hot chocolate in my backpack.
00:36:02I'm not in the mood.
00:36:04Too bad.
00:36:04I'm not going to let you mope around the rest of the day just because of lame-o Hunter.
00:36:07Get your coat.
00:36:08We going.
00:36:09Jack.
00:36:10Come on.
00:36:10This very sled, if it could talk, would recount endless tales of us hurling down the mountain
00:36:16effortlessly.
00:36:16Except for that one day, after my admittedly amazing jump, when I broke my arm and you
00:36:21pulled me on this same sled two hours to the hospital.
00:36:26You remember that?
00:36:27Fine.
00:36:29But no jumps.
00:36:30I'm a wild man and I can't promise anything.
00:36:32However, I'm freezing, so let's go.
00:36:35No jumps.
00:36:36That a girl.
00:36:36Take it up.
00:36:37Girl, right here.
00:36:39That a girl.
00:36:45God Wilson.
00:36:58All right.
00:36:59Let's go.
00:36:59Bye.
00:36:59Hmm.
00:37:00Bye.
00:37:01Bye.
00:37:01Bye.
00:37:02Bye.
00:37:03Bye.
00:37:08Bye.
00:37:37Thank you for today.
00:37:38It was really wonderful.
00:37:40I needed that.
00:37:41I couldn't let my best friend wallow.
00:37:43And yet sometimes I forget how sweet you can be.
00:37:51Bye, mate.
00:37:52See you tonight.
00:37:54Oh, and Jack?
00:37:57Don't blow away out there.
00:37:59I won't.
00:38:10Today was so fun.
00:38:12It felt like we were kids again.
00:38:15You're really smitten, aren't you?
00:38:17I can see it all over your face.
00:38:19What?
00:38:21No, I'm not.
00:38:22You're not?
00:38:25I mean, yeah.
00:38:28Of course I am.
00:38:31I just want you to be careful.
00:38:33I love Jack just as much as anyone, but I'm not sure I trust him with your feelings.
00:38:39How come?
00:38:40I'm still not over the fact that he ditched you last minute to go to prom with Bianca Bell.
00:38:44You were devastated he just tossed you aside, remember?
00:38:48Yeah, but that was a long time ago.
00:38:52Look, I know you've always loved him.
00:38:55Always loved him?
00:38:56Oh, come on, Maggie.
00:38:58Why do you think your other relationships haven't lasted?
00:39:03Dad is so excited for this party.
00:39:07He's really hoping a new generation of customers will revive the bar.
00:39:11Yeah.
00:39:12I can't wait to see the sparkle in his eyes watching a packed house.
00:39:15I wish Mom could be here for it.
00:39:17Me too.
00:39:21Yes!
00:39:22Yes!
00:39:23Yes!
00:39:24Dad, what has gotten into you?
00:39:28The network booked the Davin Bros to play here on New Year's Eve.
00:39:32It's going to be spectacular.
00:39:34Aren't they expensive?
00:39:35It's an investment.
00:39:38The Magnolia needs an image upgrade, and what better night to book a new act than on New Year's Eve?
00:39:44Dad, that sounds great, but I hope you're keeping an eye on the budget.
00:39:48Should I get a new tux?
00:39:49Dad, are you being serious?
00:39:50Don't go overboard.
00:39:51Just be yourself.
00:39:53Okay.
00:39:59Hi, Dad.
00:40:01Time to celebrate.
00:40:03Why?
00:40:04What's happening?
00:40:05The event has officially sold out in just one hour.
00:40:08This is going to be the party of the century.
00:40:11Oh, my gosh.
00:40:12That is crazy.
00:40:13Have fun at Judd's reception, Maggie.
00:40:15You deserve it.
00:40:17Thanks, Dad.
00:40:25The New Year's Eve party just sold out.
00:40:28What?
00:40:28What?
00:40:29What did I tell you?
00:40:31This is going to be a fabulous night.
00:40:33You know what, Dad?
00:40:34Maybe you should get that tux.
00:40:36That's the spirit.
00:40:37The Magnolia is back in business.
00:40:40I can feel it.
00:40:42Come here.
00:40:43Uh-oh.
00:40:44Oh, Dad.
00:40:45I can feel it.
00:41:08Excuse me.
00:41:09Are you Jack Rousseau?
00:41:11Hi.
00:41:11Yeah.
00:41:12And you are?
00:41:12Sebastian Weber.
00:41:13I'm Judd's personal assistant.
00:41:15He can't wait to meet you.
00:41:16Come this way.
00:41:16Uh, hold on.
00:41:17I'm just waiting for Maggie.
00:41:20Hi.
00:41:22Maggie Quinn.
00:41:24Welcome.
00:41:25Look who showed up before you.
00:41:27That's a first.
00:41:28And I didn't even have to call to remind you.
00:41:30All right, all right.
00:41:31We get it.
00:41:31You're the organized one, and I'm just the pretty face.
00:41:33Let me introduce you to Judd.
00:41:37Judd?
00:41:50Mr. Crawford.
00:41:52Jack Rousseau and Maggie Quinn have arrived.
00:41:54Ah, what a pleasure it is to finally meet my two rising stars.
00:41:58Judd.
00:41:59I mean, Mr. Crawford.
00:42:00Really great to meet you.
00:42:01You've been my idol for years.
00:42:03As a kid, I listened to your first radio show.
00:42:06Give me a refill of that, would you?
00:42:09Can I grab you two in?
00:42:11Good for now.
00:42:14So you're ready for the big night?
00:42:16It's gearing up to be a very special show, especially now with the news from our two hosts
00:42:21that there's a romance brewing.
00:42:23Well, it has been a long time coming.
00:42:26Mm-hmm.
00:42:27You know, your fans are going to go crazy when they see your big midnight kiss.
00:42:30Midnight kiss?
00:42:31Yeah.
00:42:32I can picture it now.
00:42:33The two of you in a passionate embrace just as the clock strikes down to the new year.
00:42:39I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks the internet.
00:42:41Right.
00:42:41Right.
00:42:42But the midnight kiss.
00:42:44Yes!
00:42:44We love kissing.
00:42:46Well, I better get over and mingle with the folks from 101.6.
00:42:50Be sure to get yourselves a drink.
00:42:57Um, white on ice?
00:42:59You know me so well.
00:43:00Be right back.
00:43:16Oh, really?
00:43:17See, like, you still do our TV show.
00:43:22Oh, that's great.
00:43:23I'm enjoying it.
00:43:23Yeah.
00:43:24Hey, hey.
00:43:25Oh, hey.
00:43:26Hey, Jack, did you know that Sebastian is a singer-songwriter, too?
00:43:30I was just telling him all about your old high school band.
00:43:33Listen, Sebastian, Judd is looking for you.
00:43:36It seemed pretty urgent.
00:43:37Really?
00:43:37I just saw him.
00:43:39I guess you better go find out.
00:43:45Oh, thank you.
00:43:47Cheers.
00:43:53Wait.
00:43:55Is this?
00:43:55The song that Dad used to play for us before the bar would open.
00:44:00Remember how we used to dance to it when we were kids?
00:44:02Acting like we were adults.
00:44:06Remind me.
00:44:09Right here?
00:44:11Yeah.
00:44:15Jack.
00:44:24I don't want to take people off to us, right?
00:44:50Oh, thank you so much for this evening.
00:44:54It was really lovely.
00:44:55My pleasure.
00:44:55A real honor, Mr. Crawford.
00:44:58Please, call me Judd.
00:45:00Judd.
00:45:01I predict a great partnership ahead if everything goes well on New Year's Eve.
00:45:07See you soon.
00:45:08See you soon.
00:45:09Bye.
00:45:14You hear that?
00:45:15Judd Crawford predicts a partnership with us.
00:45:17Everything feels like it's finally coming together, doesn't it?
00:45:22Yeah.
00:45:23It really does.
00:45:27I'm hungry.
00:45:28Do you want to go to the Magnolia for a snack?
00:45:30I'll make homemade Hawaiian pizza.
00:45:35My favorite.
00:45:37Request Uber now.
00:45:39Requesting.
00:46:03Can you believe New Year's Eve is the day after tomorrow?
00:46:07I know.
00:46:09The place looks so good.
00:46:11My mom would be really impressed.
00:46:14Five years tomorrow, right?
00:46:16Yeah.
00:46:19Family dinners aren't the same without her.
00:46:21She's the only one who laughed at my terrible jobs.
00:46:25She always had a soft spot for you.
00:46:29So your place or mine?
00:46:30What?
00:46:32For your annual in memoriam tradition to honor your mom.
00:46:37Definitely mine.
00:46:40Your place is terrible for snacks.
00:46:42True.
00:46:42Okay then.
00:46:44Seven o'clock tomorrow night.
00:46:46Your place for It's a Wonderful Life.
00:46:49I can't wait.
00:46:52Yeah?
00:46:53Yeah.
00:46:56Good.
00:47:00So are you feeling any better about Hunter?
00:47:03To be honest, I haven't really thought about him since we went sledding.
00:47:08Mission accomplished.
00:47:10What about you, Serena?
00:47:13Nothing ever seems to bother you.
00:47:15I don't get it.
00:47:18Honestly, I knew it wasn't going to last.
00:47:20If not in love, it's easy to get over.
00:47:22My heart's not broken.
00:47:24Have you ever had your heart broken?
00:47:27Like, truly broken?
00:47:30When Bianca Bell broke up with me in the summer before college, I was pretty devastated.
00:47:34Remember that?
00:47:35Yeah.
00:47:35You stayed in bed for two weeks.
00:47:36I practically had to force feed you.
00:47:43We've been through a lot together, haven't we?
00:47:45Yeah.
00:47:48Almost everything.
00:47:53How about you?
00:47:54You've ever had your heart truly broken?
00:47:58Once.
00:48:00Who?
00:48:02Not Hunter, was it Bobby?
00:48:05Bobby?
00:48:07It doesn't matter.
00:48:09It's in the past.
00:48:12Well, whoever they are, they're stupid for letting you go.
00:48:22Cheers.
00:48:25To...
00:48:26A wonderful life.
00:48:28Oh, a wonderful life it is indeed.
00:48:34What are you laughing about?
00:48:38Well...
00:48:39What?
00:48:39Tell me.
00:48:41Okay.
00:48:42I've actually never had a midnight kiss on New Year's before.
00:48:46What?
00:48:47Really?
00:48:48Never?
00:48:49I'm going to be your first?
00:48:51The pressure.
00:48:52I know.
00:48:53No kidding.
00:48:54And in front of so many people, I'm terrified.
00:48:57Well, maybe we should...
00:48:59What?
00:49:00Say it.
00:49:00No, that's a dumb idea.
00:49:02No, say it.
00:49:04Maybe we should practice so it doesn't seem forced.
00:49:09Oh.
00:49:12Like I said, it's a dumb idea.
00:49:14Well, I don't know.
00:49:17We don't want it to look, um, awkward.
00:49:22Exactly.
00:49:29I'm so sorry.
00:49:31Oh, no.
00:49:32That was incredibly graceful.
00:49:34Maybe we should just wait for New Year's and let the magic happen.
00:49:38Jack, stop.
00:49:40Ew.
00:49:40I'll lock you on.
00:49:57This place is going to look amazing.
00:50:01Where's Jack?
00:50:02It's almost 4.30.
00:50:04Oh, he lives on his own schedule.
00:50:06He'll be here.
00:50:07He always shows up when he's needed.
00:50:08Why do you keep on asking about Jack?
00:50:10I need his help with something.
00:50:12Well, is there something I can help you with?
00:50:13Hey, speak of the devil.
00:50:15Jack, he needs your help with something.
00:50:18Sure.
00:50:19No problem with what?
00:50:20Follow me.
00:50:21I need you to get the box of extra champagne flutes from my car.
00:50:26Okay.
00:50:29Well, I could have helped him with that.
00:50:31Ta-da!
00:50:33Let there be light, he said.
00:50:36Well done.
00:50:47That's it?
00:50:48That's it.
00:50:48Okay.
00:50:50Hold on.
00:50:52Yeah?
00:50:54I need to talk to you about something.
00:50:57Look, my dad told me.
00:50:58Maggie, I know this New Year's Eve party needs to be a success, so by this time next year, the
00:51:02Magnolia's gonna be a new high-rise.
00:51:04But listen, I'm not gonna let that happen.
00:51:05No, no, no, no.
00:51:06Don't worry about that.
00:51:08What's up?
00:51:09Is everything all right?
00:51:10Jack, I know you and Maggie have only been going steady for a short while.
00:51:17But it means a great deal, but it means a great deal to the family to see you two together
00:51:22after all these years.
00:51:26Nancy always thought you two were meant to be.
00:51:30She would be so happy.
00:51:32Steve, wait.
00:51:32I think I need to tell you something.
00:51:34Hold on.
00:51:35Let me get through this.
00:51:37I know this is premature, but I want you to know that when the time comes, you have my full
00:51:48blessing.
00:51:51Is this...
00:51:52It was Nancy's.
00:51:54She would want you to have it.
00:51:57I can't take this.
00:51:59Yes, you can.
00:52:10What if we don't end up together?
00:52:13Come on.
00:52:15I see the way you two look at one another.
00:52:18It's real.
00:52:19You'd both be fools to ever let that go.
00:52:25You're a good man, Jack.
00:52:29There's no one else I'd rather see my daughter with.
00:52:37Don't forget that box.
00:53:13Jack, can you grab that letter and help me hang some of these decorations?
00:53:17Actually, I'm not feeling very well.
00:53:19I think I'm going to skip out.
00:53:21But you just got here.
00:53:21Yeah, yeah, I know.
00:53:23I think I just need to lie down a little while.
00:53:27Okay.
00:53:28See you at...
00:53:307.
00:53:347.
00:53:56Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:53:58Jack?
00:54:00Bianca?
00:54:02Jack!
00:54:04Hi.
00:54:05Hi.
00:54:06What are you doing here?
00:54:08I thought you lived in San Francisco.
00:54:10No, no, not anymore.
00:54:11I actually got transferred this summer.
00:54:13I listen to your show all the time.
00:54:15You're quite the local celebrity.
00:54:17What?
00:54:18You listen.
00:54:19That's flattering.
00:54:20Yeah, you're hilarious.
00:54:22It kind of reminds me why I had a crush on you in high school.
00:54:26Right.
00:54:28So, are you really going to introduce your girlfriend or your family live tomorrow night?
00:54:32Oh, actually, we broke up.
00:54:34We're going to surprise the fans with something else.
00:54:36You're kidding.
00:54:37Well, in that case, do you want to grab a drink?
00:54:40Catch up?
00:54:41Oh, uh, I don't know.
00:54:44Come on.
00:54:45Our favorite place is right around the corner.
00:54:48Okay.
00:54:49Sure.
00:54:50Yeah.
00:54:50Just for a bit.
00:54:52Okay, great.
00:54:53Okay.
00:54:54Great.
00:54:54Go.
00:55:19Do you remember that time when you tried to move with Mary?
00:55:22How could I forget?
00:55:24Just running through the halls in my underwear.
00:55:26Oh, to think that I asked you to prom after that.
00:55:29What were you thinking?
00:55:30I wasn't, clearly.
00:55:32I always felt kind of bad about that.
00:55:35About what?
00:55:36Oh, asking you to prom even though I knew you had a pact with Maggie to go with her.
00:55:40I forgot about that.
00:55:42Yeah, I kind of heard her crying in the girl's washroom after you asked her if it was okay
00:55:47if you went with me instead.
00:55:49Maggie?
00:55:50She was upset?
00:55:51Of course she was.
00:55:52Are you that daft?
00:55:53She was in love with you.
00:55:54We were just friends.
00:55:55She said it was totally fine that I went with you.
00:55:57You are so naive.
00:55:59Have you not figured out why I broke up with you?
00:56:03Oh, it's because I could tell you loved her too.
00:56:08What are you talking about?
00:56:10Come on, you know that song you were supposed to play at the school talent show?
00:56:14It was about her.
00:56:16No, it wasn't.
00:56:17Um, yes, it was obviously about her.
00:56:20I found the lyrics on your desk.
00:56:23How is Maggie, by the way?
00:56:25I heard that her mom died a few years ago.
00:56:27Oh, no.
00:56:28Wait, what's wrong?
00:56:29What time is it?
00:56:31It's a quarter to eight.
00:56:33Why?
00:56:33I'm so, so sorry.
00:56:35I have to go.
00:56:36I completely forgot about something.
00:56:37I'm such an idiot.
00:56:39Bye.
00:56:47Maggie!
00:56:48Please!
00:56:50Please!
00:56:52Maggie!
00:56:59Maggie, I am so, so sorry.
00:57:02I wasn't thinking straight today and I totally lost track of time.
00:57:07Jack, it's late.
00:57:08I need to go to sleep.
00:57:09Just go home.
00:57:10Please.
00:57:11Maggie!
00:57:12Maggie!
00:57:13I'm sorry!
00:57:14I'm so sorry.
00:57:15But I'm ready now.
00:57:16Let's, uh...
00:57:18Let's order food and watch its order of life.
00:57:19We have a show to do in the morning before our big party.
00:57:22Or did you forget about that as well?
00:57:26How can I make this up to you?
00:57:28You should just leave.
00:57:30Can we talk about this?
00:57:32Please?
00:57:38What were you doing tonight that made you forget about our plans?
00:57:42Oh, um...
00:57:44It's kind of a funny story, actually.
00:57:47I ended up bumping into Bianca.
00:57:51Bianca Bao.
00:57:53From high school.
00:57:54Yeah.
00:57:55And we grabbed a bite to catch up and then...
00:57:57Fool me once.
00:57:59Shame on you.
00:58:01Fool me twice.
00:58:04Shame on me.
00:58:05What?
00:58:06What are you talking about?
00:58:08I think you should go, Jack.
00:58:10Is this about prom?
00:58:12Like, I didn't know.
00:58:14I would never do something like that to you again.
00:58:16You just did.
00:58:17This is different.
00:58:18No, Jack.
00:58:19It's not.
00:58:20Jack, you have been doing this to me our whole lives.
00:58:23Putting me second.
00:58:24Taking advantage of the fact that you know that I will do anything for you at the drop of a
00:58:29hat.
00:58:29That's not true.
00:58:30You're my best friend.
00:58:31I would do anything for you.
00:58:34Until something more cool and sexy comes along.
00:58:40That's not fair.
00:58:44Let's just get tomorrow over with.
00:58:46Let's just get tomorrow over with.
00:58:48I was so dumb to think that these past few days meant anything.
00:58:56They have, Maggie.
00:58:58They meant a lot to me.
00:59:00But?
00:59:02But.
00:59:05We can't let whatever's happening between us jeopardize the show.
00:59:11Wow.
00:59:13It's really the only thing that you care about.
00:59:15It's unbelievable.
00:59:16Come on, Maggie.
00:59:18Be reasonable.
00:59:19I'm not good at relationships.
00:59:21You know that.
00:59:24I don't ever want to risk losing you.
00:59:28Sometimes.
00:59:31Risking everything.
00:59:34It's the only thing we're doing.
00:59:40Maybe someday, Jack, you'll realize that.
00:59:45What are you saying?
00:59:48Please, Jack, can you just go?
00:59:51Bye.
00:59:55Bye.
00:59:57Bye.
00:59:59Bye.
01:00:00Bye.
01:00:01Bye.
01:00:02Bye.
01:00:03Bye.
01:00:04Bye.
01:00:05Bye.
01:00:06Bye.
01:00:06Bye.
01:00:06Bye.
01:00:23Hi, Dad.
01:00:24It's me.
01:00:26Can you talk?
01:00:39Dad, the club looks so good.
01:00:42You've done such an incredible job.
01:00:45It was a family affair.
01:00:47Hmm?
01:00:48Cheers.
01:00:52Well, that's not why you're here.
01:00:57What's on your mind, kiddo?
01:01:03How did you know that Mom was the one?
01:01:08Oh, gosh.
01:01:13It's hard to say exactly how I knew, but...
01:01:18I think it came down to this one day where I was cleaning your grandpa's attic, and your
01:01:26mom didn't want to go anywhere near it because she was so deathly afraid of spiders.
01:01:30Yeah, I know.
01:01:31She always screamed when she saw them.
01:01:35But on this one particular day, she heard me fall and break through the old wooden floor up there, and
01:01:44she ran faster than the speed of light into the attic.
01:01:50She ran through tons of cobwebs.
01:01:53They were all in her hair.
01:01:56She faced her biggest fear for you.
01:02:00Something about her doing that made me realize how much she loved me.
01:02:08I really miss her.
01:02:12I know.
01:02:14Me too.
01:02:20She would be so proud of the woman you have become.
01:02:28I don't know about that.
01:02:31Are you kidding?
01:02:32So full of integrity and kindness.
01:02:38A parent couldn't ask for anything more.
01:02:47Dad, I think I've got to tell you something.
01:02:50Hmm?
01:02:52Is it about Jack?
01:02:54Yeah.
01:02:57You really love him, don't you?
01:03:01Yeah.
01:03:02I think I do.
01:03:04So, what's the problem?
01:03:09I just don't think that he would run for cobwebs for me.
01:03:20Jack has a good heart, but he's never been very good with expressing his feelings.
01:03:28Why do you think he's had so many short-term girlfriends?
01:03:32Why?
01:03:34He's afraid of getting hurt.
01:03:38So, wait.
01:03:39I'm just supposed to wait around until he decides to grow up and show his real feelings?
01:03:47Well, that part is up to you.
01:03:52But you deserve someone who will shout from the rooftops how much they love you.
01:04:00Thanks, Dad.
01:04:03Don't you settle for anything less.
01:04:06I won't.
01:04:17Where is she?
01:04:18I can't get hold of her.
01:04:19I don't know.
01:04:21She's never late.
01:04:21I hope she's okay.
01:04:22Well, did you do something?
01:04:24What?
01:04:24No.
01:04:25Why would you say that?
01:04:27Because you're you.
01:04:29There you are.
01:04:31Oh, thank God.
01:04:32You're on in one minute.
01:04:36Maggie?
01:04:37You're on?
01:04:38We're almost done.
01:04:38Put your headphones on.
01:04:46Good morning, everyone, and thank you for tuning in to the Windy City Wake Up.
01:04:50I am Jack Russo.
01:04:51And I am Maggie Quinn.
01:04:53Today is a very exciting day for us.
01:04:55Our big New Year's Eve bash is tonight at the Magnolia, and do we ever have a surprise for all
01:05:00of you?
01:05:00The show is sold out, but you can catch the live stream on our website, so you don't have to
01:05:04miss a thing.
01:05:05How are you feeling about tonight, Maggie?
01:05:08I'm nervous, truthfully.
01:05:11Just want the whole thing to be over with.
01:05:19Introducing someone new to our families is a big deal.
01:05:21Frankly, I'm terrified.
01:05:22But it should still be fun.
01:05:25If you say so.
01:05:28Right, I think we should get you our first caller.
01:05:31Sounds great.
01:05:33You're live with Jack and Maggie.
01:05:35What can we help you with today?
01:05:37I have to say, I don't know what you guys are so afraid of.
01:05:39The moment I met my wife, I introduced her to my family within a month.
01:05:43I couldn't wait to start my life with her.
01:05:46Really?
01:05:46So fast?
01:05:48Wow.
01:05:48How did you know your wife was the one?
01:05:50The thought of losing her was way scarier than committing to her.
01:06:00What was that about, Nick?
01:06:03You hardly said anything the entire show.
01:06:05I'm going to get a coffee.
01:06:06Do you want anything?
01:06:07So this is how it's going to be?
01:06:08I'll take that as a no.
01:06:11Please.
01:06:13Can we just talk?
01:06:14I'll see you tonight.
01:06:16If you remember to show up.
01:06:30Thank you so much.
01:06:34Oh, Maggie.
01:06:35Hunter.
01:06:36Hi.
01:06:37Hi.
01:06:37How are you?
01:06:39I'm fine.
01:06:41And you?
01:06:42Good, good.
01:06:43I've been listening to your show a lot.
01:06:45Oh.
01:06:45Sounds like you're going to be going through with that whole meet the parents thing, even
01:06:49though we're not together anymore.
01:06:51Did you start seeing someone else?
01:06:54I could ask you the same thing.
01:06:56What?
01:06:57Oh, well, I just saw you here the other day with someone.
01:07:01She had her hand on yours.
01:07:04You mean my sister, Madison?
01:07:07Your sister?
01:07:08Yeah.
01:07:09I mean, you'd know that if you hadn't been too scared to meet my family.
01:07:12I just assumed.
01:07:15Whoops.
01:07:16So, who are you introducing your family to?
01:07:19Um, we're actually surprising our fans with something different.
01:07:24Yeah?
01:07:25Yeah, it's kind of crazy, actually.
01:07:27Yeah, well, um, would you, um, maybe want to have our coffees together?
01:07:31Uh, yeah.
01:07:34Yeah.
01:07:35Great.
01:07:42Backstage tour of the Goodman Theater?
01:07:44Yeah.
01:07:45Oh, Hunter, your students are going to love you.
01:07:47I know, right?
01:07:48It's, yeah.
01:07:50Anyways, um, how about yourself?
01:07:52This, uh, this event tonight, it seems like it's the talk of the town.
01:07:58Look, um, Hunter.
01:08:02I'm really sorry about everything.
01:08:05You deserve more and more than someone trying to push away their feelings for someone else.
01:08:09Yeah.
01:08:10You finally met, huh?
01:08:12Yeah.
01:08:14I thought if I met someone like you, those feelings would just go away.
01:08:19If only life were that easy.
01:08:23Yeah.
01:08:24Real cheers to that.
01:08:25Right?
01:08:26Yeah.
01:08:27To friends.
01:08:28To friends.
01:08:28And coffee.
01:08:29Yeah.
01:08:44Hey, Dad.
01:08:45Jack.
01:08:46What are you doing here?
01:08:48Figured I'd stop by, see how everything's shaping up.
01:08:50Shouldn't you two be getting ready?
01:08:55We, uh, got in a fight.
01:08:59Think I might lose her.
01:09:03It's impossible, kid.
01:09:05You're everything to her.
01:09:07I know.
01:09:09I've been taking her for granted this whole time.
01:09:13Well, then you need to do something to show her how much she means to you.
01:09:17What do I even start?
01:09:23Look, you know her better than anyone.
01:09:25There has to be something.
01:09:28What would make her happy?
01:09:39I think I know what I need to do.
01:09:40I know the boy's son.
01:09:43Thanks, Dad.
01:09:56Shouldn't they be at their own party by now?
01:09:58Oh, well, they're on their way.
01:10:00They just want to build up the anticipation.
01:10:03Hi, beautiful.
01:10:05Hey, Jack.
01:10:06Hi.
01:10:07Thank God.
01:10:08There's Jack now.
01:10:09Hey, Jack.
01:10:10Looking very dapper tonight.
01:10:12So you excited for the big reveal?
01:10:14Yeah.
01:10:15I'm a little nervous, but I think I'm finally ready.
01:10:18Have you seen Maggie yet?
01:10:20Uh, not yet, but she'll be here.
01:10:23In fact, you know, I think I'm going to go look for her right now.
01:10:27So, Jack, I heard the show today.
01:10:29Sorry about that one, Joe.
01:10:30Maggie wasn't really feeling well.
01:10:32I thought you sounded great.
01:10:34Really?
01:10:34In fact, I wanted to discuss something with you.
01:10:36I spoke to my executives.
01:10:38We think you guys are just so great that you would do just as well with your own shows.
01:10:44Does Maggie know about this?
01:10:45I floated the idea by her earlier on the phone, and she seemed very interested.
01:10:52Oh.
01:10:54Oh, there she is.
01:10:55Hi.
01:10:56You look ravishing, Maggie.
01:10:59I am going to go get the camera crew, and we're going to get this celebration started.
01:11:06Hi.
01:11:07Hi.
01:11:09You look really beautiful.
01:11:12Thanks.
01:11:14So, listen, Jed was saying you were interested in his offer to have you on a radio show.
01:11:18Is that true?
01:11:20It might be time we did something apart.
01:11:22You really feel like that?
01:11:26Wow.
01:11:28First hunter, now this.
01:11:30What?
01:11:31I saw you two today.
01:11:34What does it matter to you, Jack?
01:11:39Really?
01:11:40You brought her?
01:11:43I gave her my extra ticket.
01:11:44Did you bring her a corsage, too?
01:11:46Maybe.
01:11:47Hi.
01:11:48It's been so long.
01:11:50You look really great.
01:11:53I've been doing Pilates.
01:11:55You should join me sometime.
01:11:58Yeah.
01:11:59I will think about that.
01:12:01Excuse me.
01:12:02I'm going to go grab myself a drink.
01:12:04Maggie.
01:12:10Don't just stand there.
01:12:11Go after her.
01:12:14What if she's better off without me?
01:12:17Oh, my God.
01:12:17Who is that cutie that just walked in?
01:12:21It's Sebastian.
01:12:22Go ahead.
01:12:23Okay.
01:12:24Babe alert.
01:12:32Honey, you look beautiful.
01:12:35Like royalty.
01:12:37Thanks, dads.
01:12:39Is that Bianca Bell?
01:12:41What is she doing here?
01:12:43Great question.
01:12:44What's going on?
01:12:46Maggie, let's go.
01:12:50Break a leg.
01:12:58We're on in ten, okay?
01:13:01Bianca and I are just friends.
01:13:03We're not actually together, Jack.
01:13:05You're allowed to do what you want.
01:13:06Three, three, four, six, two, one.
01:13:12Hello, everyone, and welcome to our fabulous New Year's Eve event live from the iconic Magnolia in Chicago.
01:13:21Thank you all so much for joining us here at the club.
01:13:24And for those of you watching online, it's going to be an exciting night with a very special surprise.
01:13:30To get the party started, we want everyone to pick a dance partner that includes the live streamers.
01:13:35Now, the fabulous and talented Davenbros will get the party started and get us moving.
01:13:41Take it away, boys.
01:14:06Okay, great.
01:14:07We're going to let everybody dance for a bit, then we've got a few contests for the fans.
01:14:10At 11.45, we're going to get you both back on the stage for the big reveal.
01:14:13Then at midnight, you're going to have your earth-shake and kiss.
01:14:16Sound good?
01:14:17Sure.
01:14:18Yeah.
01:14:19Yeah, I guess.
01:14:20Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:14:21What's going on with you guys?
01:14:22Nothing.
01:14:25Snap out of it.
01:14:26I need bigger and better energy from you if we want this partnership.
01:14:31Yes.
01:14:36I hope you told Bianca about the big reveal.
01:14:38Otherwise, she's going to be really confused at midnight.
01:14:41I'm not with her.
01:14:42She's here to support us.
01:14:47Man, I haven't seen a club this packed in years.
01:14:50Yeah, it's quite the turnout.
01:14:52Oh, I was just talking to one of your biggest fans, and they were going on and on about how
01:14:59refreshing it is that you two never hold back from telling the truth to your listeners.
01:15:06I'm just so proud of the both of you.
01:15:13But we try our best.
01:15:15Yeah.
01:15:19I need to get some air.
01:15:27Great job, you two.
01:15:28And just for playing, we have gift certificates to the Magnolia.
01:15:32Give them a hand.
01:15:36Now it's time for the moment that you have all been waiting for.
01:15:41Right.
01:15:42The big surprise.
01:15:45As you've probably picked up by now, Hunter and Serena are not meeting our families tonight.
01:15:50And the reason for that is because it's because it's because it's because it's because it's because I can't do
01:16:05this.
01:16:06What are you doing?
01:16:07I need to tell the truth.
01:16:09Maggie, don't do this.
01:16:11The truth is, is Hunter and Serena are not a part of our show tonight because they broke up with
01:16:24us.
01:16:27So Jack and I decided that to make this night successful, we would pretend to be in a relationship.
01:16:37And I know it would have made for really great ratings.
01:16:41Which is fantastic, but that's not the important part.
01:16:44Along the way, I started to forget that this was all just a lie.
01:16:54And the truth is, it wasn't a lie to me.
01:17:03I'm so sorry, everyone.
01:17:09Cut to commercial.
01:17:10No, no way.
01:17:11This is good drama.
01:17:13Keep rolling.
01:17:15Maggie's right.
01:17:18It was my plan to trick everybody and pretend that we were together.
01:17:23But my plan completely backfired.
01:17:27Because after a lifelong friendship, I finally realized that Maggie's always been the one for me.
01:17:35She means more to me than any career move.
01:17:40In fact, the legendary Jed Crawford asked me if I'd like to have my own radio show.
01:17:47And the answer is no.
01:17:50I never want to wake up without knowing I get to see my best friend.
01:17:55The love of my life.
01:17:58Maggie, I love you.
01:18:01I'm sorry it took me so long to finally realize it.
01:18:04I was afraid.
01:18:07But you are the smartest, the coolest, and the sexiest woman I have ever known.
01:18:20I started writing this in high school.
01:18:25Turns out it was meant for Maggie all along.
01:18:29I know, it took me long enough.
01:18:33Whew.
01:18:39Well, I guess we all live our lives
01:18:43With a little something in a hide
01:18:47Safe inside
01:18:49With a smile to hide behind
01:18:52I don't know
01:18:54What's in store
01:18:56But no risk, no reward
01:18:59So I lay it on the line
01:19:03After all
01:19:05This time
01:19:08It was you
01:19:11It was always you
01:19:16I was lying to myself
01:19:19If there was ever anybody else
01:19:23That little kid and me
01:19:27And the man standing right here
01:19:29Well, we both know
01:19:31Seems like everybody knows
01:19:36It was you
01:19:38It was you
01:19:40It was always you
01:19:43I was lying to myself
01:19:46That there was ever anybody else
01:19:49It's only ever been you
01:19:51It was always you
01:19:56Oh, will you play the part
01:19:59Of my childhood sweetheart
01:20:04I can barely believe it's true
01:20:07Ooh
01:20:13But I finally know just what to do
01:20:16From the bottom of my heart
01:20:20I'm sure
01:20:21It's you
01:20:33There's actually something
01:20:34In my eyes
01:20:39I'm sorry
01:20:40That's what you say, Maggie
01:20:42Will you be my midnight kiss
01:20:44Kiss him
01:20:46Kiss him
01:20:48Kiss him
01:20:49Kiss him
01:20:50Kiss him
01:20:52Kiss him
01:20:53Kiss him
01:20:55Kiss him
01:20:55Kiss him
01:20:55Kiss him
01:20:57Jack
01:20:58Can't believe that you sang for me
01:21:02In front of all these people
01:21:04And turned down a job with Judd Crawford
01:21:07Are you sure?
01:21:09I've never been so sure about anything in my life.
01:21:14Ten!
01:21:16Nine!
01:21:17Eight!
01:21:18Seven!
01:21:19Six!
01:21:20Five!
01:21:22Four!
01:21:23Three!
01:21:24Two!
01:21:25One!
01:21:26Happy New Year!
01:21:39Happy New Year, Steve.
01:21:42He ran some cobwebs for her.
01:21:46He ran some cobwebs for her!
01:21:55And I don't want to do a show without Jack either.
01:21:59We're better together.
01:22:01I think you're right.
01:22:03Welcome to the team, you two.
01:22:11So, I know we just got together, but I was wondering if you'd be ready to meet my family.
01:22:18I thought that you'd never ask.
01:22:45For what?
01:22:46The best year of my life.
01:22:48Everything feels right.
01:22:50Plus, I get to hang out with my best friend and my girlfriend every day.
01:22:53Well, thank you to you two, because I feel the exact same way ever since we met.
01:22:58Happy Anniversary.
01:23:02What's that?
01:23:08You are just full of surprises.
01:23:12Well, I gotta keep you on your toes to make sure I'm the one you're kissing at the Magnolia tonight.
01:23:28Oh, my gosh.
01:23:33My mom's ring.
01:23:35I love you, Margaret Nancy Quinn.
01:23:38And there's no one else I want to slug with for the rest of my life.
01:23:40Yes.
01:23:41Will you marry me?
01:23:44Yes.
01:23:46Yes, I will.
01:23:48Yes, I will.
01:23:52Yes, I will.
01:23:54No, no...
01:23:55No, no, no...
01:23:59No, no.
01:24:01No, no, no, no.
01:24:35Well, I guess we all live our lives
01:24:39With a little something to hide
01:24:43Safe inside
01:24:45With a smile to hide behind
01:24:49I don't know what's in store
01:24:52But no risk nor reward
01:24:55So I lay it all alive
01:24:59After all this time
01:25:04It was you
01:25:07It was always you
01:25:11I was lying to myself
01:25:15That there was ever anybody else
01:25:19That little kid and me
01:25:23And the man standing right here
01:25:25Well, people know
01:25:28Seems like everybody knows
01:25:32It was you
01:25:34It was always you
01:25:39It was always you
01:25:40I was lying to myself
01:25:42That there was ever anybody else
01:25:45It's only ever been you
01:25:47It was always you
01:25:52I was lying to myself
01:25:55I was lying to myself
01:25:56That there was ever anybody else
01:25:58It's only ever been you
01:26:01It was always you
01:26:06Will you play the part
01:26:09For my childhood sweetheart
01:26:14It's only ever been you
01:26:30I can barely believe it's true
01:26:34Ooh
01:26:39But I finally know just what to do
01:26:42From the bottom of my heart
