Beaus of Holly (2020) - full transcript

A woman proposes to her boyfriend who says he has to work things out with an ex before he can answer, leaving her to take a romantic sleigh ride alone with a sympathetic driver.

She'’s not gonna do it...

No way...

She'’s picked the wreath.

How do you do it?

I know my customers
and I know my cards.

Amazing.

Card profile him.

Okay, fine.

Congratulations.

To his mom... for a new job...

Hi. Um, can this go fast?



No problem. Jennifer
will ring you up.

Please, fast.

Oh, I see a lovely birthday
card for your sister.

Wait, sister? I
don'’t have a sister!

I saw the flowers and...

my mom will be here any minute!

Do you have anything
else like...

How about this?

Wow!

Perfect!

Okay, is this enough? Uh...

Yes, this is perfect.

Thank you! Thank you!

Wait! You forgot your card.



Thanks, Merry Christmas!

You wrote that while
he was waiting.

So?

I'’ll take this one.

Is that all?

I would take them all,
they'’re so perfect.

I love the writing
in all of them.

Oh, look at that,
Holly, you have a fan.

You'’re the Holly of Holly'’s
Cards and Stationery?

Yes, that'’s me.

Beautiful work!

It'’s so intuitive.

Thank you.

I really appreciate that.

And to put out your
own line of cards?

That'’s a lot of work.

Not when you schedule everything
to the second like my big sis.

Well...

Here you go.

Merry Christmas.

And Merry Christmas
to both of you.

Oh, my gosh! This is
Phil'’s engagement ring?

Can I see it?

Beautiful.

Okay, you'’re gonna
have to tone it down.

Or what are you gonna do?

You'’re not gonna work
here next Christmas.

All right, give it back to me.

And by the way, next Christmas
I will be running the shop.

Because you and Phil will
be franchising the store

all across the nation.

No. We'’re gonna
stick to the plan.

Next year'’s the wedding.

The year after that is the baby.

And then after that,
we franchise the store.

Oh, how romantic.

Spending the holidays
in the mountains!

Does he suspect anything?

I gave him some hints,
plus year two, engagement.

I'’m sure he was gonna
propose before the new year.

But I just want this
whole week to be special.

Besides, there'’s
nothing in the plan

that says I can'’t
propose first.

If you get married this week,
you have to let me know.

I'’ll drive up!

I'’m just proposing.

I know, I know, but if the
moment sweeps you up...

We have a schedule,
speaking of which...

- When does your train leave?
- 53 minutes.

So exciting!

All right. I love
you. I gotta go.

Love you, too.

Good luck.

Thank you.

You'’re too amazing and you
put so much planning into this.

It'’s gonna be perfect.

Okay.

Hi!

Yeah, it'’s me again.

Yeah, I know our reservation
is not until 10 a.m.

and it'’s only 9:45.

But I just wanted
to make sure that

our carriage driver
is on his way.

Because we have several
reservations today

that we cannot be late for...

Don'’t worry, he's never
late, and he'’s on his way.

He is?

Okay. Yeah. Thank you.

Okay.

Hey, Holly.

Phil!

Hey, stranger.

- Hey, how are you?
- Hey.

Wow, hey.

So uh, how was the train?

Oh, it was amazing.

It really got me in
the Christmas mood.

- Good, good, good.
- Yeah.

You should have joined me.

Yeah, but I had work
and stuff, yeah.

You look great!

Oh, thank you.

Yeah, um, how was the drive up?

It was good.

I was on the phone
most of the time.

Well, you missed some
really beautiful mountains.

Oh, yes?

Holly?

What?

Okay, uh...

Oh, hey!

"When we first
started dating, we..."

Wait. What are we doing?

Shh! No, just...

- Don'’t move.
- Okay.

All right, look at me. Smile?

- All right.
- Okay.

"When we first
started dating, we..."

Oh! I know, this is
about your new cards.

Huh? No, no, no.

"When we first
started dating, we..."

Wait.

Are you breaking up with me?

What?

I would totally understand if...

Did you think I was
gonna break up with you?

No.

You know what? Just
read, just read.

- Okay.
- I'’ll keep my mouth sealed.

Won'’t say a word, I promise.

"Phillip, I wanted
to bring you here

"two days before Christmas
to share with you

"this special memory that
we are to make together.

"One year ago we met.

"A month later, we set
up a five-year plan.

And I love that we
did that together."

Yeah.

"Well, here we are,
one year later,

in the beautiful
town of WinterLand."

Yeah.

"Phillip Barnes,
will you marry me?"

I did it!

Excited?

Whoa, wow! Whoa!

Whoa, good?

Um... Well, um...

Phil?

You know, marriage
is a big step.

I know.

Which is why you don'’t have
to give me a yes right now.

Hey, do you remember
when we first went out?

Of course.

Yeah, and we both came from
really long-term relationships.

And we just thought it was
gonna be a couple of dates.

Moving on, we'’re here now.

I know. We made it work.

And I like our
Friday date nights.

Yeah, me too.

When I can make them.

It'’s not working out for you?

Is love supposed
to feel like this?

Like what?

Like work, like we'’re supposed
to schedule everything.

You know, it'’s like
um-um, you know?

I don'’t understand.

You'’ve always liked mapping
everything out together.

What'’s changed?

We'’re stuck.

We'’re stuck in a
routine, you know.

I can always
rearrange a schedule

so it feels more random.

See, that'’s just what
I'’m talking about.

You remember Tiffany?

Your ex-girlfriend?

Yeah. Total chaos,
right? Like crazy.

Yeah, which is why
you said we worked.

Maybe I need more of
that or a mix or...

Why are you bringing her up?

Tiffany'’s a client now and I
see her from time to time...

Your ex is a client?

Well, it'’s just a case and...

- A case?
- Well...

Have you been seeing her?

What? No, we just had
dinner a few times.

Dinner? Ha!

Dinner?

When were you gonna tell me?

Listen, we never hooked up.

Oh, you better not
have hooked up.

This better be good.

No, listen. Truth is,
there'’s a big difference

between you and Tiffany.

Really? It sounds like
we'’re sharing the same man.

No! No one'’s sharing me! But...

Maybe I'’m not over Tiffany.

Maybe I should reach out to her.

Oh, clearly,
you'’ve reached out!

Holly, truth is, I thought
you were bringing me here

to break up with me!

I didn'’t know why you
wanted to do it here,

but I was prepared
to make it work.

And if didn'’t work, you know,

Tiffany invited me to her
parents for the weekend, so...

You had a backup plan?

I am trying to give you my all.

And I want to make sure
that when I say. "yes"

that I really mean it.

Isn'’t that what you want?

It should be a pretty
easy yes or a no.

No, listen, the last thing
I want to do is hurt you.

Bur I need to make sure that
you and I can go the distance.

Okay, I'’m not lying.

I just can'’t move
forward with you

until I know how I really feel.

I don'’t even know what to say!

Have I just been a really
long rebound this entire time?

No.

You were never a rebound.

It'’s just you threw this
marriage thing on me,

and it'’s a lot.

I had to erase any doubts
that I have about you and I.

Hopefully, we can
move on with the plan

like nothing ever happened.

I can'’t resume with the plan
like nothing ever happened

if you'’re spending
the most magical week

of the year with your ex!

I have to explore my past

before I can move
forward with our future.

Phil, there'’s no version
of this that works.

If you do this, you
can'’t come back.

Maybe I can.

I will, I will.

It'’s gonna take a lot of
convincing, but you know what?

I'’m gonna do it and, when I do
this, I'’m all in, no doubts.

Goodbye, Phil.

Holly!

Listen!

We'’re gonna make
it work, I promise!

Look, you don'’t know
how hard this is for me!

Phil and Holly! Forever.

Thank you.

I mean, I usually
don'’t cry at all,

but my plans are ruined.

No hot chocolate tasting,
no carriage ride,

no gingerbread men,
no Snowman Land,

no cabin in the woods,

all over this
stupid, idiot jerk!

This man-child!

No, no, that'’s okay.
You can keep it.

I can dry clean it.

No, no. It'’s okay.
I have plenty.

Please.

Thank you.

I'’m your coachman, Jake.

At your service.

Oh.

I'’m not going to
be able to go today,

so here'’s the tickets.

No, that'’s not necessary.

Well, just take your girlfriend

or your boyfriend
or ex-girlfriend.

No! Don'’t take
your ex-girlfriend!

No, it'’s only me.

Oh, Snowdrop, I guess
she could be my plus one.

Anyway, let me see what you got.

Well, carriage ride.
Well, that'’s nice.

Ooh, a hot chocolate tasting.

You know, Sylvia'’s
hot chocolate

is the best hot
chocolate in the world.

It is?

We got Santa'’s Workshop

and a ticket to Make Your
Own Gingerbread House.

Well, this is like the childhood

I never had all
wrapped up into one.

Well, thank you.

Looks like today'’s gonna
be pretty busy after all.

Look the next train
isn'’t until 3:34, so...

how about this?

You hang in the back
of the carriage.

I drive you around town
and give you the tour.

I'’m good.

You know, this
wonderfully generous woman

gave me these tickets
for a carriage ride

out of the blue, me plus one.

What do you say?

I insist.

All right.

After you.

Right here'’s the second oldest
building, the Community Church.

Since 1940, the church
bells used to ring

every single Christmas morning
until they were destroyed

about 10 years ago in a fire.

And right up here, if you
can see it, the Argo Mill.

But through the month
of December, it acts

as Santa'’s Workshop.

A lot of history there.

Over here, this library
Robert Frost used to visit.

He had a cabin
about a mile away.

It'’s where he would write
some of his earlier poetry.

Robert Frost?

He wrote his own Christmas
cards to his friends.

Speaking of Robert Frost,

his poetry reminds me of a
card my old girlfriend gave me.

"Love is never gone, only
asleep, waiting for your kiss."

Beautiful.

That wasn'’t Frost, just a card.

But I never forgot those words.

I'’m sorry.

I'’m gonna be quiet
and just shut up.

I'’m just gonna drive.

Adorable.

Jake!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Oh, good, you'’re here!

You know, Everett from
Christmas Adventureland,

he told me everything!

Love and chocolate
are perfect together!

Sylvia!

Oh, I'’m so sorry!

Come on in anyway.

No, thanks, Sylvia.
We actually...

we'’re just gonna take
a tour of the town.

Well, that'’s nonsense.

Hot chocolate it is, then!

Come on.

It'’s worth it.

Come on. Come on.

Come on, Jake!

She'’s gonna need her
chocolate drinking buddy!

Christmas is enjoyed
all over the world.

And in each kitchen,

there'’s a different way
to serve hot chocolate.

The story of the Orange
Peel and Chocolate

comes from China,
hundreds of years ago.

You'’d never expect the pungent
taste of the orange peel

and the silky
texture of the cocoa

would blend together
so perfectly.

But against all odds, they do.

Mmm.

Wonderful?

Mmm.

Here, try this.

What... what are you doing?

It'’s ancho Chili Cocoa Powder.

But she didn'’t
tell us to do that.

Just try it.

Trust me.

It'’s hot, but it
is really good.

Yeah, sometimes you just
gotta mix and match.

I put too much pressure on Phil.

I put too much
pressure on myself.

What is wrong with me?

Well, for one thing,
you have a moustache.

You got it.

I'’m chocolate drunk, I
think. Is that a thing?

Probably, yeah.

I think you should just take
me back to the train station.

I mean, we have...

Five hours and 14 minutes?

Okay, I'’m very impressed
that you know that.

But that'’s still five
hours and 14 minutes.

Okay.

Oh, I guess I'’m stuck here
in Christmas Wonderland.

Or we could do the
next thing on the tour.

Snowman Land?

Yeah.

I only put that on there
because Phil grew up in Florida

and I figured he could
finally build a snowman.

When was the last time
you built a snowman?

I don'’t remember.

Well?

Yeah, you'’re right!

Totally.

Why should he have all the fun?

And he shouldn'’t.

And I have plenty of time
until my train comes.

Plenty of time.

All right, Mr. Coachman.

Let'’s build a snowman.

I should delete his number.

Would that make you feel better?

We had a five-year plan. He
blew it after the first year.

I ever tell you about
that time I worked

at a ranch in Wisconsin?

In the two hours that
we'’ve known each other?

Nope.

Good point.

Anyway, I volunteered at
their Christmas Parade

to be Santa Claus.

I thought it'’d be
great to, you know,

ride in in my giant Gypsy
Vanners, pull my Santa sleigh...

Vanners?

Yeah. They'’re
long-haired horses,

just like my pal Snowdrop.

Anyway, it was also my first
Christmas with my girlfriend.

She wanted to
spend time with me.

See, but I thought,
hey, I can do both.

I can go to Alene'’s
after the parade'’s over,

except the trailer broke down.

You know, somebody needed
to stay with the horses

and make sure
they'’re warm and fed.

But by the time I
got to Alene'’s,

it was too late and
she broke up with me.

I'’m sorry.

Look, I made a choice and I have
to live with the consequences.

Well, maybe she wanted
you to try harder.

Maybe she wanted to
see you fight for her.

Look, it'’s complicated.

You don'’t wanna
hear my life story.

I'’m sorry. That'’s
probably too personal.

So how'’s your
snowman coming along?

It'’s all done.

Wait. They look the same!

Yours is a traditional snowman.

Mine'’s Santa Claus.

Santaman.

Santaman.

Where'’s the hat?

That'’s a box.

It'’s a Santa Claus hat. You
gotta think outside the box.

What do you say to a Make
Your Own Gingerbread House?

Got two tickets,
and it'’s a bakery.

Do they have gluten-free
Red Velvet cupcakes?

Yeah, they do.

I'’m in.

I think the porch should
be a complete wrap-around.

Can you hand me these
brownies right here?

Look.

I'’m designing the dream house

me and Phil were
supposed to live in.

I have to stop.

Want to take a break?

I just can'’t believe I misread
this whole entire thing.

It'’s my job to know
what people are thinking.

What, are you psychic?

No.

I write greeting
cards for a living.

Cards?

Like you buy...

At a card shop.

I mean, I guess I never really
thought about it, you know.

It'’s like you open the card

and it says Happy Birthday
or Merry Christmas.

It kind of writes itself.

So wait. Let me ask you this.

Do you write the funny stuff
like with the cartoons,

cats and dogs dressed
as Santa Claus...

No.

You know that stuff that poem
you read in the carriage?

Yeah.

I wrote that.

Wow!

Man, that'’s impressive.

Thank you.

Okay, I got it!

Can you hand me those
load-bearing crispy treats

so I can fortify the house?

Yeah. Here you go.

Thanks.

I have one last wall.

Voila!

Very nice.

If I ever build a real
gingerbread house,

I'’ll be sure to call
you as the contractor.

If you'’re ever gonna
have anything built,

you'’re gonna hire Everett.

Everett?

Yeah, he'’s my boss.

The cabins you were supposed to
stay at, he built most of those.

He also owns Christmas
Holiday Adventures.

Well, you'’ll have to
tell him thank you for me.

The pictures of the cabin
looked very beautiful.

They really are.
You'’re missing out.

You really love it up here.

Yeah, yeah, I do.

Well, it'’s a shame I'm not gonna
be sticking around for long.

I feel like Ms. Scrooge
and I'’m in no mood

to be visited by any ghost
from my Christmas past.

You looking for
the delete button?

I was just kidding.

Listen, it makes total sense.

You delete him, no looking back.

You just have your future
to look forward to.

But what if you need...

Life shouldn'’t be
about the what-ifs.

It should be about
the what-nows.

How'’s that feel?

Fine. Yeah, feels fine.

Good.

Well, if we'’re
done with the house,

we can continue
on with our tour.

Okay.

Food for the reindeer.

Nice.

It'’s getting cold.

Yeah, clouds are coming in.

I hear there'’s snow
in the forecast.

I know. Snow makes it a
perfect Christmas week.

Couldn'’t have
planned it better.

You can'’t plan
everything, you know.

I can try.

Come on, but no spontaneity,
no randomness ever?

This? Right here with you?

This is pretty spontaneous,
especially for me.

And how does it feel?

Weird.

I mean, not that you'’re weird.

No.

You know, like this
whole thing is weird.

Let me ask you. Are
you always like this?

Like what?

You know, organizing everything.

Yeah.

I'’ve been teased
about it my whole life.

But I'’ve gotten this
far because I can plan

and I can follow through.

I'’m not making fun of
you. I'’m actually jealous.

Jealous?

Yeah.

So what are your plans
for Christmas Day?

I'’m gonna wake up,

gonna get on a train and
heading a east of Seattle.

I'’m sorry, what?

I'’m leaving.

On Christmas Day?

No tree, no presents?

I know. I get it.

Are you visiting family?

No.

Did you clear that
with Snowdrop?

I have a job starting
in the new year.

That'’s why I'm going.

Oh.

Why?

Nothing.

I have one more ticket.

What about your train?

I have an hour and 36 minutes.

Santa'’s Workshop?

Exactly.

I'’m gonna make you
a going-away present.

Going-away present.

Do I get a say in this?

It'’s a thank-you for
helping me with today.

Let'’s go.

- Right! Great!
- Let'’s go.

Like I mentioned, what makes
the Argo mill really special

is that, every Christmas,

it'’s turned into
Santa'’s Workshop.

So, you know, all the kids
can get an early glimpse

at Santa and Mrs. Claus.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, Santa.

Just the two of you? No kids?

- No kids.
- No kids.

Ah, the two tickets for
a young couple in love.

Glad you could make it.

Mrs. Claus, could you take these
two young lovers to the table?

Actually...

Okay, here are the rules.

Don'’t play with the glitter,
don'’t run with scissors.

Don'’t paint each other.
That never turns out well...

and don'’t eat the glue.

Wait. Can we make
popcorn garlands?

Have you ever made that before?

Mm-mm.

It'’s my favorite
Christmas activity.

We ran out of popcorn about
two hours ago, thanks to Santa.

Have fun, kids.

What are you doing?

Making an ornament.

This was my Christmas
gift to you.

I told you I love Christmas.

Please. You'’re
leaving on Christmas.

Well, that'’s because that's
when the train leaves.

Okay, Mr. I Love Christmas.

Time for a test.

Uh-oh.

Presents? Morning or evening?

Oh, morning.

Christmas Eve, ham or turkey?

Now that'’s a trick question,

because Christmas
Eve is prime rib.

Christmas Day, turkey.

Homemade cranberry sauce
or rubber out of the can?

Oh, rubber out of the can.

Oh, you failed that one.

Hold on. Wait, wait, wait.

With chunks of real cranberries
in the rubbery mess.

Eww!

It'’s good.

Well, I make a mean
cranberry sauce.

It'’s my mother's secret recipe.

Oranges and cinnamon,
it will convert you.

Yeah, my dad used to have
a secret recipe for turkey.

Every time he was
home on Christmas,

it tasted like perfection.

He never taught me how
to make it, though.

Did he travel a lot?

Yeah, we all did, base to base.

Oh, a military brat!

Oh, yeah, that'’s
me. Pretty bratty.

My parents got divorced
when I was 12, though.

And Christmas hasn'’t
been the same ever since.

This is Christmas perfection.

You know, I would
love to travel.

But what you do is on
a whole '’nother level.

Oh, life doesn'’t have
to be that complicated

if you just let it happen.

You need to experience
more if you'’re going to be

writing those cards.

The cards are about emotions,
what'’s in the heart,

not about places.

Hmm.

You know, you remind
me of my sister, Jenn.

Really?

Everything'’s so new
and exciting to her.

She'’s always searching
for that inspiration.

But I know how to laugh,
I know how to love.

I know how to say I'’m sorry.

You don'’t need to
travel the world

to understand those things.

I'’m gonna go look
for some more tinsel.

Hey, Tif!

You actually came.

I live my life the
way I want to live it.

If I want to go to Seattle or
Kansas whenever I want, I can.

She'’s out of your league.

Okay, first off, I'’m just
showing her around town.

And, secondly, why...
why do you say that?

Because I'’m Santa!

My sister loves to challenge
everything, but not me.

I'’m the practical one,
the dependable one.

And yet she'’s the one
that'’s always happy.

Maybe she'’s doing it right.

Hmm?

Oh, yes, sweetheart,
just add more glitter.

Timing is everything.

There'’s nothing to
talk about, all right?

I'’m just her driver with a
horse and I leave in two days.

I guess you'’re gonna need a
Christmas miracle, won'’t you?

Yeah, yeah, Christmas miracle.

Thanks, Santa.

No problem.

Do you notice Mrs. Claus
keeps winking at me?

Yeah. You better watch out.

She'’s gonna get you.

They'’re awfully
cute, aren'’t they?

Mm-hm.

What it is about connecting?
Why is it so difficult?

Well, if it were easy,
you'’d be out of business.

I guess we'’re all looking
for that one person

that we can relate to.

I thought Phil was the one.

Does he plan everything, too?

Yeah. He'’s a lawyer, so he's
always like three steps ahead.

The crazy thing is
I found it sexy,

which now makes me feel like I
was being played the whole time.

I mean, maybe, or maybe
he was telling the truth.

Maybe he thought that he
was saving the other person

by letting them go.

How do you save
someone by leaving?

Love is complicated.

No. The love part, that'’s easy.

You shouldn'’t have to run away.

That first part, when
you first fall in love,

you shouldn'’t have
to second-guess.

When you'’re really
truly in love,

there'’s only question
you should ask:

What can I do to spend the rest
of my life with this person?

Wow. That'’s really good.

You should put that
in one of the cards.

But without all your
hard work and planning,

you wouldn'’t have been
able to waste a day with me.

It wasn'’t a waste.

Mistletoe!

Dude, totally
misreading the moment.

Yes, read the room, Santa.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

What time are you
leaving on Christmas?

My train leaves at
9:36 a.m., early.

I guess I'’ll go to my
folk'’s house for Christmas.

Nice.

I'’ll arrive at seven a.m.,
help my mom set up breakfast.

My dad will get up at 7:30
a.m. and eats and help.

- It'’ll be nice.
- Nice.

Jenn will call and say that
she'’s running late at 10:00

and ask us to wait to open
up presents from Santa.

When I was a kid, I used
to stay up all night

trying to catch Santa Claus.

- Really?
- Yep.

I did that until I was about 12.

Just until 12? I still do it.

One day I'’m gonna catch him.

When I do, when I catch Santa,

it'’s gonna be Christmas
every day in my house.

Oh, my gosh.

So are you ready? 40 minutes
until your train leaves.

43 minutes.

43 minutes. Of
course, you knew that.

That'’s it!

That'’s what?

Holly, what?

This was the church I
wanted to get married at.

It'’s a beautiful church.

That'’s one of the
first buildings in town.

You wanna go inside?

No.

- Really? Sure?
- I don'’t... no.

See that two-ton
church bell up there?

It used to ring
every single holiday.

About 10 years ago, it
got struck by lightning.

That actually saved the church,
but it hasn'’t rang since.

Sorry. It'’s the
tour guide in me,

A lot of information, huh?

So no more tickets, huh?

That was the last one.

Well, Christmas snow'’s coming
in just like in your plan.

Well, guess we should
get back to the train.

You'’ve already made
this day way more fun

than it should have been.

Hey, excuse me! Hey!

Excuse me, I...

Are you okay?

Pastor Tony, slow down!

Can you... Sorry.

You need some water?

I can get you some
water off my carriage.

Okay.

You two, I need you to be
witnesses to a marriage.

- Oh, no...
- Please!

I'’ve been running up
and down main street.

And everybody else is
either running around

looking for last-minute gifts or
already with their loved ones.

I got to get her back to
her train before it leaves.

I really do. I'’m sorry.

Oh.

Okay.

I'’ll just try to
find somebody else.

A day before Christmas Eve,
it shouldn'’t be too hard.

Not hard at all.

We'’ll do it!

- Really?
- Yeah.

My name is Holly.

Holly, that'’s so great,
that'’s so fantastic.

Holly, if the 3:34 train leaves.

You'’ll miss it, you'll
have to stay at the cabin.

I'’ll be fine. We'’ll
make the train.

She'’ll make the train.

Yes.

- Yes?
- I'’m good.

- She'’s good!
- I'’m good.

- I mean, if you'’re good...
- Let'’s go!

Okay.

They came in about twenty
minutes ago, a whim.

Young love.

The mountains will
do that to you.

Normally, I have
Mr. Fallon here.

He plays the mandolin
during the service.

But he is busy setting
up our new church bells.

Oh, it'’s so beautiful.

The sounds it'’s going to make!

And on Christmas morning!

So blessed...

Sorry, I'’m off track...

anyway, I really
appreciate this.

So this is David and Jill.

- Oh, sorry.
- Hi.

This is our lovely couple
that'’s getting married today.

- Hi.

- Congratulations.
- Congratulations, yeah.

Thanks.

Well, great, now that
we have witnesses,

will you marry us, Pastor Tony?

Of course. Let me get set up.

We really appreciate
you doing this.

Are you two married?

- No!
- No.

- No, we'’re not married.
- Oh, sorry.

It'’s just... Love
is in the air.

What happened to your witnesses?

We didn'’t know we needed them.

Yeah. We just decided
to get married today.

So this wasn'’t planned?

- No!
- No!

We actually just met last
week. Isn'’t that so romantic?

So it'’s like a spur of
the moment kind of thing?

Yes!

Is she gonna be okay?

Listen. I mean, when you
know, you know, right?

I knew the second that I
said I needed a piece of gum.

Oh...

He went from shop to shop to
shop to try and get me a piece!

And I knew when her favorite
movie was "Lilo and Stitch"!

Yes!

- I love you.
- I love you so much.

Knock it off, you two.

There'’ll be plenty
of time for that.

Sorry, sorry.
We'’re just, um...

- We'’re really excited.
- Really excited.

Why don'’t you guys
come on up here?

See? Being spontaneous
can be exhilarating.

We are gathered here today
by the skin of our teeth...

To witness the union
of David and Jill,

a lovely couple brought
together by divine intervention,

otherwise known
as a stick of gum.

Are you two ready?

Yes, yes. I have
my vows in here.

Okay.

"Love is never gone,

only sleeping."

That'’s your card.

Come on! We can still make it!

We still have time!

Come on!

No, no! No, no, no!

What happened?

The train has a mind of its own.

But it had a schedule and I
printed it and memorized it!

Look, I'’ll tell you what.

I'’ll get Snowdrop comfy
in the stables, all right?

I'’ll grab my truck

and I'’ll drive you down the
mountain back to the city.

No, no, no. That is too much!

No, it'’s not. Come on.
Don'’t be ridiculous.

You should be with your
loved ones, it'’s Christmas.

But you'’re off the clock!

I want to do this, okay?

Tell you what.

A gift to you.

"One free mountain ride."

Yep. You gave me a ticket.
It'’s the least I can do.

Okay.

Okay?

But can I sit up front?

That might be pushing it.

Come on, let'’s go.

Did it take you a while
to learn how to do this?

- What? This?
- Yeah.

Driving? Nah.

When you have a teacher
like Snowdrop, it'’s easy.

You wanna try?

Oh, no, no.

Come on, drive.

- No. I...
- Take the reins. Here.

- Ready?
- I cannot.

Take the reins.

Wait. I don'’t know
what I'’m doing!

You can steer. Here.
This is how you steer.

- Right to left, this.
- Okay.

Pull that way.
This, pull that way.

- Oh my God.
- Come on, you can do it.

Okay.

- Here we go!
- Giddyap, giddyap!

- You'’re a natural!
- I'’m doing it!

Oh, my God, this is so much fun!

Whoa!

Why'’d she stop?

Not a fan of the bridge.

Oh, is she scared?

No, the uneven wood. She'’s
gotta take it slowly.

All right, let'’s go,
Snowdrop. Nice and slow.

- Great job, girl.
- She did it!

Mm, okay.

You guys want anything?

Mr. and Mrs. Parker, do
you want some eggnog?

No?

Babe, no?

Okay.

Ooh!

Find what you'’re looking for?

Yeah. Do you have
anything Christmassy?

What? Are we eight?

I thought Christmas was
about us being together.

But no eggnog?

Seriously?

No. I'’m just saying,
no Christmas music?

You know my parents don'’t
want to be distracted.

Look, honey, tomorrow
is Christmas Eve.

You and I should go into
town and have a great night.

Maybe get some prime rib...

Sweetie, I'’m vegan.

Vegan? Okay. Wow.

Well, how are we gonna
do Christmas turkey?

We'’re not.

Okay.

Um, okay, I hear you.

And I understand that
you'’re a new vegetarian...

Vegan.

But that started
like two days ago.

What? Does that
not make it valid?

No, no.

I'’m just saying that you can
eat the green beans and soymilk.

But maybe... maybe your parents,
they want Christmas turkey.

Clearly, they ate
Vixen or Dasher

or one of those reindeers...

Phil? Okay, all right.

Phillip, calm down.

My parents love me.

And if I'’m gonna eat raw green
bans and soymilk, so will they.

The question is, will you?

I think I could
do a little kale.

There we go.

- Thank you.
- All right.

Okay, you guys want to
watch a Christmas movie?

Hey, Snowdrop. I'’ll
try to be quiet here.

Is she gonna be okay?

Yeah, just gotta give
her some food and water

to keep her metabolism
up for the cold.

Okay. Bye, Snowdrop.

Bye, Snowdrop.

This place is amazing.

You get to work with
all these animals.

Yeah, I'’m gonna miss 'em.

Here'’s Everett.

Offer still stands, Jake.

Everett...

Hey, this is...

Let me guess.

You must be the 9:45 lady.

Oh, and you must be
the one I talked to

on the phone earlier today.

Yes, ma'’am.

Well, you were right.
He wasn'’t late.

Oh, Jake'’s always reliable.

So let me guess. You'’re
here for the cabin.

Actually, no. I'’m
not gonna stay.

Jake'’s gonna drive me back
home down the mountain.

Y'’all best get a hurry on
before the temperature drops.

Oh, that'’s my phone.

An alert. They
said it'’s closed.

Of course.

Yep. Highway 85.

Freezes over every time the
temperature drops below 30.

Too dangerous to cross, Jake.

Yeah.

Okay, change of plans.

Do you want to take
her to the cabin?

Yeah, yeah. I'’ll do that.

Don'’t worry about
going to the carriage.

I put her luggage in
the back of the truck.

Perfect. I'’ll bring
them right up to you.

You come with me, young
lady. Watch your step.

There'’s no way in the world

I was gonna let you go up
that highway like that.

So where'’s your boyfriend?

I thought this
was supposed to be

a romantic Christmas
week for two.

It didn'’t work out.

Oh, I'’m sorry.

So, uh, what are you
gonna do when Jake leaves?

You applying for
the job, young lady?

No. I actually have a
card shop in the city...

I was just kidding.
I'’m just playing.

I ain'’t gonna lie to
you. I'’d love to retire.

I'’d love to leave
all of this to Jake.

So he'’s leaving.

- Maybe.
- Maybe?

Let me put it to you like this.

I know Jake wants to stay.

He just hasn'’t found
the right reason yet.

Well, sometimes you just
need to move on, right?

Sometimes what you'’re looking
for is right in front of you.

Come on.

Cabin 2B, the Frost house.

After you.

Robert Frost used to come
up here back in the day.

- You heard of him?
- Of course.

This is it.

Make yourself at
home, young lady.

This is where
Robert Frost stayed?

Where he sat? Where he ate?

Where he wrote?

I take it that you'’re a fan.

"Two roads diverged
in a yellow wood.

"And I... I took the
road less traveled by.

And that made all
the difference."

Wow.

He would love to hear young
people recite his poetry.

Did you know him?

Me? Oh, no, no, no, ma'’am.

My parents did, though.
Heard stories growing up.

Oh!

Knock, knock!

Oh, thank you, buddy.

All right, I got your stuff.

- Glad you'’re here.
- Yeah.

I'’m gonna go get
Snowdrop prepped

for the temperature
drop tonight.

Okay. You need help?

Oh, no, no, no, no.

You stay here and take care
of this pretty young lady.

And you, ma'’am, if
you need anything,

emergency number is
right there by the phone.

Thank you.

Oh, no, no, no.
Thank you, ma'’am.

Thanks, Everett.

So where do you...

Yeah, put that stuff
down. Put it right here.

- All right.
- Yeah.

- That'’s a lot of stuff.
- Yeah.

Oh, wow. Nice holiday cheer.

Yep.

Spiced wine.

Phil and I were supposed
to be celebrating.

Now I guess it'’s just
for a party of one.

The turkey, the dressing,
cranberry sauce?

Well, Phil was supposed to bring
the turkey and the dressing.

But I brought the
cranberry sauce.

I guess now I'’ll just
do the decorations.

Do you want to join me?

I'’m sorry. You
probably have to pack.

Never mind.

Actually, do you know
what? I'’ll be right back.

Yes.

Knock, knock again.

Oh! Are you kidding me?

Nope.

This was supposed to be my
last meal before I left.

But you can'’t have
Christmas without a tree.

Well, let'’s
celebrate Christmas!

Let'’s celebrate.

I think we did good here.

Yeah, yeah.

I guess if you "like"
Christmas, it'’s okay.

I thought you "loved" it.

Oh, please.

I love Christmas and
this is beautiful.

- Thank you.
- You'’re welcome.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

It'’s my sister.

- Hey, Jenn.
- Hey, sis.

- Are you really coming back?
- Hey, no.

The snow came in so I'’m not
gonna come back '’til Friday.

Wait. What? Hello?

I'’m surprised you
get any reception.

I guess having lousy reception

might be a plus
staying up here, huh?

Yeah. Yeah, it is.

And you wanna leave all this?

Oh, I'’ll just find somewhere
else that has bad internet.

I don'’t know how
you live like that.

It'’s a result of a
nomadic childhood.

Guess it doesn'’t really
give room for relationships.

Yeah, I'’ve had those,
but traveling in the world

and falling in love just
don'’t see eye to eye.

Is that what happened to the
one who gave you my note card?

No, actually, I did
her a favor by leaving.

She just didn'’t know it.

You left her?

I thought she broke up with you.

Well, it kinda works both ways.

You know, she gave me a second
chance and I broke her heart.

I never felt like I
was enough for her.

I couldn'’t give her
everything she wanted.

Is that what she told you?

No. I mean...

Truth is, she loved
me as is, all of me.

But by the time I saw
that, it was too late.

Well, Jake...

I see you as is, all of you.

And I think you'’re
pretty wonderful.

Well, Holly...

Is that so?

Yes, that'’s so.

And that'’s my signal
to fix the transformer.

Do you really have to
go out there in that?

Yeah, one last hurrah.

I'’ll get the fire started
before I get outta your way.

Will you come by tomorrow...

if you don'’t have to pack?

Packing only takes two minutes.

My cabin'’s next door, so if
you need anything, just...

Goodnight, Jake.

Goodnight.

Oh...

It'’s so cold.

Holly!

Holly, it'’s Jake!

Jake?

Holly.

- You okay? You frozen?
- Oh, it'’s freezing!

Get in!

It'’s so cold.

Right. The thermostat
broke last night.

Went out again like
20 minutes ago.

I have a linesman coming
to fix it in a few.

Just wanted to check on you.

- You good?
- Yeah, I'’m good.

- I'’m gonna start a fire.
- Okay.

What'’s in the bag?

Oh, just a little
more Christmas.

Everyone needs a Santa
to watch over them.

You'’re serious! You
really kidnapped Santa!

Well, he'’ll do until
I catch the real one.

Oh, my gosh.

Beautifully done.

Yeah, we should be at a thawing
temperature in about 10 minutes.

Amazing.

Ah...

Do you wanna stay for breakfast?

Yes, that would be nice.

Okay, good.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Well, let me go get dressed.
Then I'’ll come back.

Okay.

I'’ll see if the
linesmen are here.

Meet you here in 15?

Yeah, that'’s a good idea.

- Okay.
- Perfect.

Breakfast was great.

Thank you.

Oh, thanks for getting the
electricity to work again.

That'’s my one super power.

Well, with great power
comes great responsibility.

So what else is on schedule
aside from quoting Spiderman?

I don'’t know.

What do you mean,
you don'’t know?

I have no plans for
the first time ever.

Huh, no plans. How
does that feel?

Pretty... pretty good.

Well, we can do
whatever you want to do.

Snowball fight?

Oh, you'’re so gonna get it.

- Yeah!
- That'’s all you have?

Oh!

Ah!

Give me more than that.

- All right.
- Come on. Bring it!

Oh!

Oh, no, are you okay?

Woo-hoo!

I'’m glad you found
something Christmassy to do.

Well, I mean, it
would be a lot easier

if someone was helping me.

Babe, you really don'’t
have to wrap those.

We usually just find a shopping
bag and stick it under the tree.

No! That'’s... that's crazy!

Well, I'’m sorry
we all don'’t own

a wrapping paper
store like Holly.

Look, this isn'’t on me.

I warned you, my parents
just like to keep

a low-key Christmas.

I know you warned me.

But I thought you just meant
they don'’t dress up for dinner

or use fine silver
or go caroling.

I didn'’t know it was BYOC.

What'’s BYOC?

Bring your own Christmas.

Get up! Come here!

You are the only
one who cares about

the presents being wrapped.

Because it'’s Christmas!

You wrap gifts for kids!

Do you see any kids here?

- No, but...
- Exactly!

This is a no-kids zone!

Since when are you
some Christmas groupie?

I am not a Christmas
groupie, okay?

This is not Christmas!

We are in a snowy cabin with a
beautiful fire on Christmas Eve.

How is this not
Christmassy enough for you?

It'’s like "The Nightmare
Before Christmas".

What is that supposed to mean?

Hey, I didn'’t ask
you to come over here

after you dumped your rebound.

What? She is not a
rebound, okay? Okay, she...

Oh, my God, Phil!

You have to make up your
mind on what you want

because this is not working
for me on Christmas Eve!

You know what, this isn'’t
working for me either.

Don'’t move!

I can'’t believe you
hit me with a rock.

I told you, it was a
pebble in the snow.

It was a projectile and you
were trying to took my head off.

You'’re just mad
because I was winning.

Oh, right.

Oh, that'’s probably
Santa Claus putting you

on the naughty list for
deliberately hitting me.

I gotta take this.

Your sister?

Guessing it'’s her sister.

Hello?

I really want to
get back together.

I can barely hear you.

I made a huge mistake.

I was so dumb.

What am I thinking?

What do you think I'’m thinking?

You'’re right. I
wasn'’t thinking.

I can'’t even hear you.

Let me just call
you on Monday, okay?

I know I was confused.

But I know 100% now that...

that...

I love you.

You love me?

Great! You love
me, too! That'’s...

No! No! I did not...

That'’s great, baby.

Listen, you don'’t
know how relieved I am.

Like I'’m so relieved right now.

Hey, are you at the...

Cabin... we rented?

No, no, no.

Don'’t come here!

Okay, '’cause I'm coming.

No, no!

All right, great.
I'’ll see you soon.

No!

Hello?

Holly?

What?

All right. Love you. Love you.

You okay?

Yeah, I'’ll make some chestnuts.

I love chestnuts.

Um, there'’s a power
outage in the north cabin.

I'’m gonna go take care of it.

You have to go?

Yeah. I'’ll be back and
I'’ll bring more Christmas.

More than this?

Yeah, I'’m like Santa Claus, my
bag that just keeps on giving.

Hey, uh, hey, babe.

Who were you talking to?

Um...

Huh? I, um...

You know, it'’s not important.

That was her, wasn'’t it?

I thought you said it was
over between you and Holly.

You know, you'’re
ruining Christmas!

Christmas? Christmas?

You call this Christmas?

This is not Christmassy.

I have never seen my mom and
dad in such a happy mood!

How can you even tell?

Just get out!

You know what?
That'’s a good idea.

You know what, Tiff?

Listen, I'’m sorry...
and you deserve better.

Oh, I know I deserve better.

And I know you know.

I'’m just saying if I stay here,

we would both be miserable
and that'’s not a life.

I think you'’re confused.
I have a life, remember?

You'’re the one that pursued me.

You came into my life.

You took me to dinner.

Well, you were hungry.

I'’m always hungry. Why do
you think I turned vegan?

Honestly, now that you'’re
here in my life, you want out?

Grow up, Phillip!

I broke up with you
a year and a half ago

and I'’m doing it again now!

Do not come back!

Okay. That'’s a good idea, okay.

Want me to shut the door?

Just go!

Oh, Holly, I'’m coming for you.

Never again will I
do that. Nope, nope.

I don'’t know what I
was thinking, Phil.

Oh... ah!

Come on!

Come on, baby!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

Dang it!

Come in!

That took awhile, but looks like

you finally got the
power on for everyone.

Yes, everybody is nice and
toasty for Christmas Eve.

Popcorn!

For Popcorn garlands.

You remembered.

Got something else.

Whoa!

It'’s off the carriage.

Gift from Snowdrop.

Aw, she'’s a pretty
amazing horse.

Listen, I know you probably
don'’t want any memorabilia

from these last couple of
days, but I just thought...

No, I do want to remember it.

Thank you for everything.

I wish I had something
to give you in return.

Is that Santa?

Phil?

Can I come in?

Come here.

- Oh, my God! What?
- Set him down, set him down.

You'’re freezing!

Get some blankets. Get
him warm, get him warm.

I... broke... my phone.

You could have died out there.

Do you think we should
call him an ambulance?

Does he need one?

I think we can thaw
him out. Hold on.

Okay.

Go in the bathroom,
put this shirt on.

- The bath...
- Bathroom'’s over here.

- Okay.
- Right there.

Phil, when you'’re finished
in there, please join us

for Christmas Eve,
so you can have

something hot to
eat and thaw out.

I messed up.

Oh, it'’s so funny.

I really thought that
you said come over.

I did. I thought you said it.

I did.

Holly, you'’re right.

The homemade cranberry
sauce is much better.

You converted me.

Thank you.

So who are you again?

Jake.

Little Jake. Thanks
for the kiddie shirt.

It'’s a little bit extra small,
but, you know, thanks. Thanks.

Nice Christmas tree.

So Holly tells me
that you'’re a lawyer.

Correct. I'’m a
defense attorney.

I represent insurance
corporations.

Hmm.

So you work here at the cabins
like a maid or something?

Wear the little...

Jake, actually, he drove
me around town yesterday.

Oh, like an Uber
driver. That'’s nice.

With a horse.

He was our carriage
driver, remember?

Right, right, right,
like a jockey.

Well, you'’re surely
the right height.

So it'’s Christmas Eve.

Why don'’t we get
that fire started?

You'’re right! Christmas Eve.

Too bad we don'’t have presents
to open up, right, Jake?

Actually, my family
always opened up presents

on Christmas morning.
What about your house?

Oh, no, sucks to be poor.

We'’d open presents
on Christmas Eve

and Christmas morning.
Oh, especially New Years.

Those are the best.

Well, lucky you.

Yeah. Hard work pays off.

So why don'’t you open presents
on Christmas Eve, again?

Well, it'’s probably because

Santa hasn'’t come down
the chimney yet, right?

Oh, okay.

Well, you know, you
have to open up presents

on Christmas Eve so Santa has
more room to put more presents.

Isn'’t that right, Jack?

His name is Jake.

Sorry.

So how about that
popcorn garland?

Yeah, let'’s do that.

Okay, fine. I see
where this is going.

You know what? I have
some work to get done.

Can I borrow your tablet...

where I know the password?

Hey, do you have internet here?
You know what that is, right?

You know what?

It'’s Christmas Eve. You
almost died out there.

Why don'’t you just
take it easy for once?

Well, as tempting as
sewing popcorn sounds,

I have Christmas
emails to send out.

I'’m surprised you
didn'’t do that already.

I did, but I missed a few,
maybe more than a few.

That'’s not very Christmassy.

Well, good thing you'’ve
got Jesse over here

to keep you company.

It'’s Jake.

All right.

I'’m sorry.

It'’s all right.

Here you go.

- Nice.
- All right.

All right, let'’s do this.

Good! Done!

Oh, and so are we.

Really?

But you were working.

I was sending out
Christmas emails.

Well, you know, I'’m gonna
clean up and get outta your way.

Why? Why leave now?
We'’re just having fun.

Well, you two have
a lot to talk about.

I'’m actually leaving
in the morning, so...

Leaving? Like moving?

Leaving forever and ever
and never ever coming back?

- Yeah.
- He'’s moving to Seattle.

You don'’t have to...

I mean, I guess he
could stay a little.

You were supposed to not come.

He needs to go!

You need to. You know on the
phone, I said "do not come."

I barely left and you moved on!

I thought you loved me!

I thought you loved me.

I needed to think about
it. I needed to think...

I said let me think about
it and you said "okay"

and I was like, "I'’m
glad you understand."

You are not supposed to be here.

You know that I said...

Okay. So I'’m gonna...
gonna get going.

You don'’t have to go.

Yeah, yeah, I do.

Okay.

- I'’ll see you.
- All right.

Excuse me.

Jake, what was that all about?

Excuse me?

What happened?

You'’re angry.

Listen, you have a guy who came
back to you waiting in there.

So he gets to decide and you get
to decide what'’s best for me?

Like you did with Alene?

How about I get to decide
what'’s best for me?

You can'’t deny that
you don'’t feel this.

When you know, you know.

Look, you have a five-year plan

that doesn'’t end until
you jump off of it.

My plan ends with a 9:36
train the moment I jump on it.

Just call it what it is.

You'’re running
away in the morning.

I'’m not running away.

Good night, Holly.

Holly, I was...

Hey, Holly! Hey!

Come here! Come here!

Stand right there.

Don'’t move. Look at me.

All right.

Holly, at the train staion

I made the biggest
mistake of my life.

Holly, will you marry me?

Phil!

Stop, wait. Is this my ring?

Yeah, yeah.

I found it in the bathroom
when I was thawing out.

But that'’s not the point.

The point is... I made
the biggest mistake

of my life when I left.

Phil, stop, no...

Look, when you proposed, it
freaked me out and I was scared.

And I'’m sorry, so let's go
with the five-year plan...

No, Phil, sStop!

And then we can get
married next year.

We can buy a house and
have kids and travel...

Phil...

And then we can open up a
franchise for your store.

No. Forget the plan!

This is me living
now in the moment.

And... you left me
for someone else.

That really hurt.

It was just one day. But it
wasn'’t like three months.

I did it for us.

There is no justification
for why you did it

except that you
didn'’t love me enough.

I declare a mistrial!

This isn'’t court!

It is and you'’re my judge.

Your Honor, I plead
temporary insanity.

Hey, come on. It'’s Christmas.

This isn'’t a get out
of jail for free card.

I know.

I have a lot to think about.

I know and I'’m sorry.

I'’ll give you time.

It'’s Christmas Eve. I
don'’t wanna be angry.

I don'’t either.

But you really broke
my heart yesterday.

I know. I was so dumb.

I don'’t know if I'm gonna
be able to forgive you.

And it'’s definitely
not gonna be tonight.

Well, I'’m patient.

So I'’m gonna go to sleep

and I'’ll talk to
you in the morning.

Okay.

- Oh, right...
- Right there.

Okay. Couch.

Goodnight.

Hopefully, I don'’t scare Santa.

Okay.

Is this Christmassy
enough for you?

You'’ll never catch me, Jake.

And you won'’t
catch Holly either!

Ho, ho, ho, ho!

You can'’t beat me.
You can'’t beat me.

Oh, hey!

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

So, what'’s up?

Still stuck on that cowboy?

You said last night that you
needed my Christmas spirit.

What do you think
I need from you?

It was okay when you didn'’t
know the answer to that.

But I know what I want now.

Look, I just made one
mistake, but I came back.

I came back for you
because I love you.

Phil, you never loved me.

You just loved the idea of me.

I don'’t matter to you.

And I need to matter.

I think I knew deep down
somewhere in my heart,

that this wasn'’t gonna work.

But I was so busy thinking
about you and us that

I wasn'’t checking in with me.

The truth is, we
don'’t belong together.

And now that I'’m finally
able to admit that,

I can'’t go back and ignore it.

I'’ll always have love for you,
but I'’m not gonna take you back.

But this is Christmas!

We'’re Christmas, you and me!

Hey, wait.

Where are you going?

What happened last night?

Actually, you did.

I what?

When you came back, you
confirmed what I already knew.

Why are you hurting me?
How does this help me?

It'’s helping the both of us.

We both need to move on.

Holly! Wait! Holly!

Holly?

Hey, Tiffany.

Merry...

hello?

Jake?

Jake?

Are you still here?

Holly?

Hey, Everett!

Good morning.

Merry Christmas, Holly.

Merry Christmas.

Did I miss him? Did
he leave already?

Yeah. He moped around
here a little bit.

But I kicked him out
about an hour ago.

You kicked him out?

Yes, ma'’am.

I didn'’t want him to
miss the last train.

But Jake did want me to
give this book to you.

It'’s a Robert
Frost First Edition.

Yes, it is. Jake said
you would appreciate it.

You okay?

I have to get to the station.

That'’s not possible.

There'’s no way in the world
you can get down there.

The road'’s are iced over.

You can'’t hike that
within 23 minutes.

I have to try.

I have an idea.

You can do this, come on, girl.

I need some Christmas magic.

That'’s the way you do
it, Snowdrop, good girl.

Come on, hurry up!

Go faster.

Stay, Snowdrop. Stay.

No! No, no!

No, no, no! Stop! Stop!

Holly?

Looks like those
lessons came in handy.

Well, I had a good
teacher. Snowdrop.

Yeah, we'’re talking about you.

You were right.

Being spontaneous
is exhilarating.

Why aren'’t you on the train?

Well, I...

I was gonna ask Everett

if he was still
interested in selling.

So you'’re staying?

Yeah, I'’m staying.

I thought you were
getting married.

I said no.

I really wanted to
apologize to you.

Yeah, I, um...

I owe you an apology, too.

Apology accepted.

Apology accepted.

Thank you for the book.

Thank you for the card.

You certainly know how
to write from the heart.

I was kinda hoping
you would read that

before you left on the train.

"“You wander the
roads less traveled.

"You pick the lonely
blue highways.

"Protecting yourself
behind trees and valleys.

"You shield yourself
from falling in love.

"But like the journey...

"Love is when you experience
life'’s greatest adventures.

"I hope you find it.

"And when you find it...

I hope you fight for it."

I want to fight for it.

You know, I heard
someplace that,

when you find true love,

there'’s only one question
you should be asking yourself.

And what is that?

What can I do to spend the rest
of my life with this person?

It works! It works!

The bell! It works!

Hey, Merry Christmas!

- Merry Christmas!
- Merry Christmas!

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
