Cupid's Christmas (2022) - full transcript

As Santa Claus searches for his lost Reindeer (Cupid) in the small town of Holly; the love story of Katie Valentine and Army veteran/firefighter Luke Murphy is re-ignited during an effort to save the historic train depot.

Hey, I was thinking

about taking the horses

for a run

on the ridge.

Perfect. And would you

mind getting Toby, too?

I think

he really needs it.

Yeah, sounds good.

Cupid!

Cupid!

♪ Fa-la-la-la-la,

la-la... ♪

- Katie!

- Hey, Donna.

Do you have

the stuff for me?

Yep, I got it right here

with me in the truck.

Do you have to meet

with a contractor?

Yes, meeting with a contractor

about the train depot.

Oh, I love you, Katie.

Thank you.

All right.

I'll see you soon.

Well, well, well.

If it isn't the lovely

Miss Valentine here

to spread

some holiday cheer.

Hi, Veronica.

Can I have a hot cocoa please?

So, what brings you

in today?

Well, I've got

some salvage

from the bank restoration

for Donna,

and then I'm meeting

with a contractor

about moving

the old depot.

-Wow, moving?

-Yeah.

The railroads need to

widen the tracks eventually,

and the station's

just too close.

Well, it sure would be

a shame to lose it.

Sure would.

It's been in use for--

-For 80 years.

-And it was built in--

- 1885.

- I've mentioned it.

A few times.

How much does it cost

to move

a building that big?

Ugh, it's gonna be a lot.

The bad news is,

I'm talking crazy money.

The good news is,

we've got time,

and with grants

and fundraisings,

we should

just about make it.

Well, you could

always ask Santa for help.

Veronica. Be serious.

What?

You don't believe in Santa?

Well... it's worth a shot.

Sure is.

I just sent him

a letter earlier this week

asking for a man, so...

- Wait!

- We'll see...

But what about

the actor?

Well, don't you

technically need to be paid

to be an actor?

Listen, the only acting

this guy did

was convincing me

that he'd split the rent.

Yeah, but you're still

doing better than me.

I can't imagine sitting through

another Christmas dinner

with my mom asking

why I don't have a boyfriend.

Aw.

Oh, well.

Oh, look at the time.

Hey, I gotta run.

-What do I owe you?

-Don't worry about it.

Put it towards

the train station.

You're the best.

-Hi, Donna.

-Katie!

Do you have some

good stuff for me?

Yeah, I do.

They're made from repurposed

wood from the old bank,

just north of town.

Oh, yes, I drive by

that all the time.

Yeah, they're in the middle

of a renovation right now,

and can you believe

they were just gonna toss out

all this

old great stuff?

I can't.

You're incredible.

You bring me

the greatest and coolest.

Wait till you see

what we did with the old...

cast iron cures

you brought last week.

-I can't wait to see 'em.

-I can't wait to show you.

Do you have to meet

with a contractor today?

Oh, yes. The contractor

down at the train depot.

- Mm-hm?

- Besides,

I better get outta here before

I buy up the whole store.

Well, I love

to hear that.

I just can't wait

for you to come back.

-Thanks, Donna.

-Oh, good luck to you today.

Thanks. Bye!

So, as you can see,

despite being vacant

a number of years,

the structure is still

in really good shape.

You said 1885?

Yes, 1885.

The property's owned

by the railroad,

but the depot is owned

and maintained by the village.

Wow, for being

as old as this is,

it's in really

good shape.

But, I'm sorry,

but I-- I can't move it.

I can't do the job.

Wha-- what do you mean?

It's just, uh,

it's just too big for me.

I don't have the manpower

or the equipment, you know,

to handle somethin' like this.

But I can give you

the number of a firm in town.

Shouldn't be

a problem for them.

They've moved a number

of historic buildings.

All right, excellent.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

Hey, Mom, what's up?

Hey, can you do

your mom a solid?

Olivia's down

at the station

giving Billy

and the chief trouble again.

You mean she's not out

educating people

on their first amendment

rights again?

I just don't have time.

Go sort out what's going on

with my favorite granddaughter.

Sure. She is your only

granddaughter.

Yes, I know

she's my only granddaughter,

-but you could change that.

-Mom, don't start.

Hi. I'm Chief Murphy.

And who might you be?

I'm Nicholas Claus.

Nick.

Nick, you've been

brought in today

because you were trespassing

on somebody's property...

dressed like Santa Claus.

Can you...

Well, I was out lookin'

for my lost reindeer.

Oh. What's its name?

-Cupid. His name is Cupid.

-Cupid?

Like the baby?

With the tiny bow.

No, no, no.

Cupid is part of my team

that makes my sleigh fly.

You know, like,

to bring toys

to the boys and girls

around the world?

You know,

milk and cookies?

Is this a joke?

Is this guy

joking right now?

Because I have no idea

what's going on.

But I do know I have better

things that I could be doing.

I'm pretty sure

we all have better--

Wait, what?

You arrested Santa?

You're going to ruin Christmas.

I'm telling everybody.

Sit tight, Santa.

Olivia, oh--

hold up now. Hold up.

-We didn't arrest anyone.

-This is so wrong.

You need to let him go.

Right away.

Give it

a second, okay?

Can someone please explain

to me what's going on here?

Police Chief Murphy

arrested Santa Claus

and is going to ruin Christmas

for people all over the world.

Olivia.

Thank you.

We got a phone call this

morning from Ron Montgomery.

Someone was trespassing

on his property,

so I sent Billy out

to investigate,

and he comes back with

this gentleman for questioning.

He thinks

he's Santa Claus.

He is Santa Claus!

Ho-ho-ho!

It's all right, young lady.

I'm just fine.

I promise.

I was just looking for

one of my reindeer.

Cupid, he ran off

this morning.

We need to help

find him, Aunt Katie,

or Santa won't be able

to deliver presents

all over the world.

Okay, okay.

Hey, Santa! When was

the last time you saw him?

Just this morning.

He ran off into town.

And has he

run off before?

Oh, yes.

Cupid does this

from time to time.

- Okay.

- Do you know

why I call him Cupid?

No. Why, Santa?

Well, he's drawn to love.

To bringing people together.

Every time

he runs off like this,

he always seems

to turn up

right where love

is blossoming.

Okay, okay.

I'm sure Chief Murphy

will keep an eye out for Cupid.

Isn't that right?

- We will.

- Mm-hm.

Okay, Chief, I'm sorry,

but with all due respect,

you really want us spending

our time running around town

trying to catch a mythical,

magical creature

for Santa Claus?

Don't you spend

every weekend out

looking for

the Abominable Snowman?

No, Katie, because

that would be ridiculous.

I spend every weekend

trying to find Sasquatch.

And for your information,

I almost got a picture

of him last weekend,

but it was too dark.

Well then, clearly, we have

the right man for the job.

I don't got

time for this.

I have some actual

police work to do.

I assure you,

we are going to

do everything within

our power to find Cupid.

Okay?

Thank you.

Okay... Nick.

Santa.

The homeowner isn't gonna be

pressin' any charges,

so you're gonna be

free to go.

However...

I think

it would be a great idea

if you had

a conversation

with a mental health

professional.

Hey, it's me, Holly,

and there goes Alan Turner

and the Steel Horse Band,

featuring Jackie Daniels.

And we just got

a phone call from Linda

over at Battle Alley Coffee.

Now get this,

she's saying that there

is a reindeer

on the loose.

She has seen it

with her own eyes.

Definitely not Rudolph,

there's no red nose.

But there is

a little black nose,

so be on the lookout for maybe

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen?

Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen?

We're not sure,

but when you see it,

give the radio station

a call.

Right now,

it's KayLyn Pace.

Thank you,

councilmen and women.

This depot is more

than just a pile of bricks.

It's our history.

Its walls chronicle

the story of Holly itself.

It's windows and floors

saw the narratives

of our forefathers,

as the accounts of how we

started as a community began.

Its very track

served as a conduit

to almost every family tree

on this council board.

We don't want to

merely archive it away,

like a painting

in a museum's back room.

We want to save it.

And most importantly,

we want to use it.

First, by relocating it

from its original place,

then restoring it

to its former glory.

And finally,

encouraging the residents

of Holly

to engage in it.

Just imagine

using that space for things

like weddings and banquets.

Classrooms

and town hall meetings.

The village

treasury just can't handle

this kind of monetary

expense at this time.

Our community is moving towards

a new and exciting future,

and we need

to embrace that change.

Listen, Katie, most of

city council agrees with you.

But our hands

are simply tied.

We just

don't have the money.

Well, there has to be

something that we can do.

I'm afraid

it can't be done.

The original five-year plan

was ambitious in and of itself.

We can't just

let them tear it down.

I, personally

stand with Katie.

Katie represents

the future of Holly, Michigan.

We have to find

a way to support

and fund

the restoration of the depot.

I believe we should

make it a workable time frame

-to make it happen.

-Exactly.

We cannot

build a future

without preserving

and respecting our past.

If they are not inspired

by the past of our city,

where will they

find the strength

to fight

for our future.

Julius.

We appreciate your passion.

But this meeting

is adjourned.

Terrible.

You know how old this bible is?

So, this bible

is probably from the 1870s.

Oh, hey, Katie.

Come on in.

The council president's

waiting for you over there.

Thanks, Nicole.

Hi, Julius.

Thank you so much for coming.

-I think you know the senator.

-Oh, again.

Good to see you, Katie.

Have a seat.

So, Julius, uh, did you see

the quote that I sent over?

I did.

And I've got some bad news.

Senator, do you want to

share with her what we learned?

Yeah. Unfortunately,

we were told we had five years.

And now they say

we have less than one year.

What happened?

I don't know.

Something about expanding

the tracks ahead of schedule.

But I spoke to the firm

that the village

contractor gave us.

They can still do it.

Unfortunately,

they want 50% down on the job

before they'll start

by the end of this year.

The end of this year?

That's in three weeks.

-I'm so sorry.

-It won't be easy.

But Katie, I think because

you have such enthusiasm,

you have the perfect

personality for this.

You'll get people inspired.

I can help get some of

my elected officials involved,

and I think we can get

people to come

and we can

have a big fundraiser.

A fundraiser?

That's a great idea.

-Thank you, Senator.

-Thank you, Katie.

I'm gonna start

my morning tomorrow

with a nice hot cup

of coffee from Battle Alley.

Battle Alley! Yes!

Caramel macchiato, or a--

or a-- or a buttered rum.

I can just

smell it right now.

I miss that smell

walkin' in there every morning.

I know.

It's been way too long.

You know what I miss? My bed.

I just can't wait

to get outta these boots.

You take care,

brother, okay?

You too.

-All right, see you later.

-Stay safe.

You too.

-Hey, Tony.

-Hey, Luke.

How's civilian life

treating you?

Honestly, I'm not

too sure yet.

I just got back home in Holly

and this is my first Christmas

back here in a decade.

Okay, well I'm not gonna

take up too much of your time.

We have an opening

at the Chicago firm.

Sales exec. And I think

you would be great for it.

Thanks, Tony, that's...

really nice of you.

Okay, well,

we lookin' at flying you out

for a tour next week.

I just don't know

if I could do it, though.

Look,

it's the same thing

as when you were

in the service, man.

Persuading people

and just talking to 'em.

You know,

I just got home, and...

took a job with the fire

department here in town.

Can you really

see me doing sales?

Uh, okay,

how about this, sleep on it.

I'm going to be in Detroit for,

like, three days next week.

We'll sit down

and have lunch,

and pop in

on you then.

Okay? And Luke,

I hope you're ready

to make some serious cash.

-Sure thing, Tony.

-All right.

- Hah-hah!

- Hey, Jeff!

No, no, no,

bring it in here, man.

Ah, you got it, baby.

You didn't think

we forgot about you, did you?

Yeah, actually,

for a minute there

I didn't think anyone

was coming to get me.

Come on.

You're Holly's hero.

We pull out

all the stops for you.

I even got

the heater fixed.

I didn't want you to get

a cold and everybody blames me.

Well, don't spoil me now.

I did figure my old man

would come and get me, though.

You know, he's the one

that asked me to pick you up.

You know,

as chief of police, he's--

-he's a real busy man.

-Yeah.

And then we got

all these last-minute

preparations

for the Christmas parade.

-Kinda hard.

-Yeah, I guess so.

Yeah. In fact,

speaking of your old man...

did you tell him

that you accepted

a position with me

at the fire department?

Uh...

You didn't tell him.

Ah, he's the chief

of police.

If I told him I took a job

at the fire department

he'd probably disown me.

You know,

you're probably right.

But I'll tell you this,

better you than me,

'cause you're the one

that's gonna tell him.

Not me. All right.

Let's get you home, guy.

All right.

I'll take it.

Thank you. Oh, shoes!

Okay.

Hey, what's this

I hear about you

breaking into a holding cell

in the police station

and giving Billy

and the chief trouble?

They locked up Santa Claus.

Put yourselves

in my shoes, Judy.

What would you

have done?

Okay, uh, first of all,

that is grandma to you.

And second, um,

I'd let them do their jobs?

Fine,

but don't look at me

when no one gets

presents on Christmas.

It was a nice

old man dressed as Santa.

So, did they

let him out?

Yes, they did.

Well then, great.

Christmas is saved.

Not quite.

We still have to find Cupid.

With the bow

and the arrow and the wings?

I thought we were

talking about Christmas.

Santa's reindeer, Cupid!

I know Szott's dealership

were looking for

real reindeer this year, so...

probably has

to do with that.

Val!

Luke's here!

- Luke!

- Welcome home, Luke.

Hi, Valerie.

Good to have you home, son.

It's good to be home, Dad.

Got dinner

all ready for you.

Oh, great.

I'm starving.

It's great, Valerie.

Thank you.

And... I ran into,

uh, Katie, today.

Have you had a chance to call

her since you've been back?

No, I have not.

I mean, I would like to,

but I don't think

she'd wanna talk to me.

Why wouldn't she

wanna hear from you?

I'm sure

she'd love to see you.

It's just complicated.

I left

to join the army.

I was young and...

it was right after

my mom passed away.

I probably could've

handled things better.

Well, if I was her,

I'd for sure want to see you.

Especially during Christmas.

Thanks, Valerie.

So, have you

thought about work?

Any idea

what you wanna do?

You know, I could always use

another officer at the station.

Uh...

yeah, I, uh,

I actually did find some work.

Really? Fantastic.

Whatcha doing?

Well, you see,

uh, Jeff...

he reached out a couple

weeks back and I, um...

I sort of...

accepted a position at the...

-fire department.

-You what?

Chief Deckman told me

a long time ago.

-Congratulations.

-You already knew?

Of course.

This is Holly.

I have been stressing

about this all week long.

Cheers.

Welcome home.

Did you believe

that Santa was real today?

I honestly don't know, V.

Could be.

I'm gonna find Cupid.

I have no doubt you are.

Come on,

let's get you tucked in.

Can you sing me

a song?

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe not--

Please! I'll go right to sleep

and I won't get up and bug you.

All right.

Hm.

Hi. Usual?

-Please and thank you.

-Coming right up.

- Oh, hi, Luke.

- Hey.

Order pickup

for the fire station?

It'll be just a sec.

Um, Katie,

it'll be a second.

The machine

is on the fritz.

Thanks.

Katie...

Valentine?

Luke Murphy.

Fireman.

Oh... yeah.

I'm sure

your dad is thrilled.

He's comin' around.

Well, you always were

good at putting out fires.

Some of which

being yours.

Fair.

Well, it looks like

it's gonna be a while.

You wanna grab a seat?

Might as well.

Great.

So, how've you been, Luke?

It's been a while.

Just trying to get

used to civilian life, really.

Excited to be

back home though.

I'm at the fire station,

workin' with Jeff and Jack.

And I am

the gofer today.

-How about you?

-Can't complain.

I've been running

the Holly Historical Society.

Figures.

What do you mean

by that?

Come on.

Who did you used

to drag with you

to break into

all those old buildings?

It's true.

I remember.

I actually think that's

pretty cool you're doing that.

Well, thank you.

You still singing?

Me? Singing?

No.

Are you kidding?

Why not?

Luke, I don't do

that anymore.

It's been over eight years

since I've last sung.

Why? You were always talking

about it when we were kids.

You won Holly Idol.

I always figured that I'd run

into you on tour somewhere.

Stop.

I'm serious, Katie.

You were really great.

Why did you stop?

I don't know.

Life, I guess.

Besides, it's not like

I could just

run off and start

a life somewhere else.

I'm joking.

It's okay.

I probably

deserve that, anyway.

But hey,

if you still like singing,

-you should do it.

-I don't know.

I haven't done it

in so long,

I don't know

if I'd even like it anymore.

Hey, you say that now.

But I seem to remember

a certain bar...

that does

a karaoke night.

Not gonna happen.

Besides, I gotta run.

I gotta meet someone

down at the train depot.

You wouldn't wanna

tag along, would you?

Well, it's just

around the corner.

Come on.

You might learn somethin'.

I have not been

in this place for years.

It's a great,

historic building.

You know, Holly organically

grew around this depot.

If it weren't for that

and the railroad,

Holly might

not even exist.

Well,

what do you think, Walter?

It's a beautiful building.

I-- it's in great shape.

You know, I-- I left

some things out in my car.

Uh, let me go grab those,

I'll be right back.

Thanks, Walter.

I can tell this place

means a lot to you.

I just love it here.

All the old brickwork.

And if you

close your eyes,

you can imagine it

full of all sorts of people.

All coming home to see

their families on Christmas.

- Ready?

- Yeah.

Well, I have to admit it...

that was actually

pretty interesting.

Well, Holly

is a pretty interesting place,

believe it or not.

It's just so awful

that they're gonna tear down

this train depot

before the end of the month.

Says who?

Luke, I told you.

The village.

They just don't have enough

money to relocate it right now.

Well, I get that, but...

who says you can't raise

the money on your own?

What do you expect me to do?

Rob some banks?

I don't know.

Maybe you could

throw a big

Christmas fundraiser

or something.

Have a big party? Some bands?

Good food? Dancing?

There's enough

people around

who I'm sure would

love to chip in.

It's not a horrible idea.

It's just that

I don't know

when I'd go about

planning all that.

It's not like

I have much time.

Maybe I could help.

You?

Yeah.

Why not?

I did some operations

planning in the army.

And I used to throw

a pretty good party

back in high school,

didn't I?

You did...

but I think it's gonna have to

be a little classier than that.

Yeah, well, you'll have to

help me with that part, but...

I honestly think

this could work.

Hm.

It's worth a shot,

don't you think?

And maybe you'll get a

Christmas miracle or something.

Yeah.

It's worth a try.

All right,

I'll look into it,

see what all needs to be done,

and where we could hold it at.

The Christmas parade

is in a couple days,

so it's gonna

have to be after that.

Well, think about it,

let me know.

Yeah.

I will.

Well, I better

get headin' out.

Told the fire chief

that I'd pick him up

some coffee

before headin' over.

I'll see you

around though?

It is

a small town after all.

♪ I know how you feel

afraid of failing ♪

♪ Let me tell you

it's worth trying ♪

Hey, look who's here.

The rookie.

What took you so long?

- Coffee.

- Little late, aren't you?

Hey, chief,

your coffee's finally here.

What the heck

took you so long?

I'm having

caffeine fits in there.

- Sorry, sir.

- What did you do,

grind these beans yourself?

He was at

the hairstylist, chief.

-The hairstylist?

-Ha-ha-ha.

John Cena

disappeared on us again.

Well, you guys

take care of this. Handle this.

We got it, chief.

Couple of things, rookie.

First off, E.P.A. test.

Gotta get done today.

Second,

I need you to find

the left-handed

smoke shifter for me.

Solid piece of brass

somewhere out back.

- Anything else?

- Stir the tanks.

-Stir the tanks.

-Can't let that water freeze.

All right, guys.

I get it, I get it.

Givin' the new guy

a hard time.

I think we gotta wax

the trucks too, don't we?

All right, boys. Game time.

Hey, by the way,

meant to ask you,

what are you

doing Saturday?

That's the day of

the Christmas parade,

so I was planning

on being there--

No, no, no, no, no, I don't

care what you were planning,

I'm gonna tell you

what you're gonna do.

Okay? You see, the engine

is gonna be in the parade.

I'm gonna be on the top

of the engine in the parade.

You understand me?

I need lights.

Green, red.

I need you to make it look like

a moving Christmas tree.

You know?

And then I sit on it,

I wave at the crowd--

- But I---

- No, no, no, no, no,

no, you don't nothing.

No, no. You don't--

you make it Christmasy.

I sit on it.

People applaud and yell

and shout and I wave.

- You won't be there.

- Okay.

Unless you wanna

be in the crowd.

But not

on the engine.

So you-- you make sure

that you fix that up.

Don't forget.

A moving Christmas tree.

- Sure thing.

- You got that? All righty.

- Absolutely.

- Good.

Don't let me down.

Hey,.

I told you I wanted

hot chocolate. What is this?

-Ah, just drink it.

-Gosh.

Oh, hey, Luke.

How's it going?

- Jack.

- Hey, what's up, man?

Hey.

Fellas.

-Hey, Chief.

-Captain, how you doing?

What brings you here?

Well, I saw Luke's car out in

the parking lot, and I thought,

"You know, I would stop

by and watch my only son

betray me by signing up

with the fire department."

Sorry, Dad.

Ah, it's all right.

You guys do know why God

created police officers, right?

No.

So firefighters

could have heroes.

That's fair. That's fair.

Well,

if firefighting was so easy,

then they'd have cops do it.

- Oh.

- Right chief?

Oh, you're kidding.

Aw, right through the heart.

You're woundin' me.

Hey, Luke,

do me a favor, would you?

Run these by Judy Valentine and

have her sign these permits.

I mean, I would do it,

but I'm a cop,

and I actually have

work to do.

Oh, God.

See you, Chief.

-Got some work to do.

-See you later.

Didn't you fail

the police academy?

That's messed up.

Hey, it's me,

Holly Hutton,

and I am here

with Katie Valentine.

President of

the Holly Historical Society,

also head

of the DDA.

And you're here today because

I heard there's a huge problem.

-Can you tell us about that?

-Yes.

Holly, thank you so much

for helping us spread the word.

We are currently in dire

need of a contractor to help us

relocate and renovate

our beloved Holly Train Depot.

If anyone out there knows

of anyone reputable that

we can use

for this project,

we are currently

accepting bids,

and we'd like to speak

with them as soon as possible.

Okay, so, you can

call the radio station

if you know of anyone,

if you can help.

And if that person happens

to be attractive and--

and single, uh,

Katie, I heard you're--

you're available.

Your mom called.

Uh, Holly,

we can talk about this later.

Okay, well, we'll be

back with more music

with Paulina Jayne

after this.

Carousel Acres,

this is Mady.

Yeah, hi, Mady,

this is officer Billy Mortimer

with the Holly Police

Department.

Listen, I just wanted

to reach out and see if,

uh, you guys happen to be

missing any of your animals?

Because we've been

gettin' some weird sightings.

Calls about reindeer.

And I wanted to make sure

it wasn't one of yours.

Yeah, no,

I'm positive we have ours.

We actually had three

triplet goats born today.

Well, they sound very cute.

Yeah, all of the horses,

ducks, goats, sheep.

Um, the foxes and

the emu, and the kangaroo.

We have everything.

Okay,

thank you very much

for your time and, uh,

tell Tammy I said hi.

What do you think?

Hello?

Oh, sure, mom. Yeah.

Okay. What's going on?

Nothing.

I just had

a long day.

-And I ran into someone.

-Really? Who?

- Luke.

- Oh.

Mom, don't start.

It was nothing.

It was nice to see him

and all, but I don't know.

It was just

a strange feeling.

Well, he was

always such a sweet boy.

And he's become

quite a fine young man.

Did you guys

talk about going out?

Mom! Do I need

to remind you

that I was dating him,

and then he up

and left town ten years ago?

It was strange.

Has he changed?

No.

That's the thing.

He's the same sweet, funny guy

that he was before he left.

Sweetheart,

someone that important to you

doesn't just show back up

in your life for no reason.

-You can't ignore that.

-Well, I don't know.

There's just...

there's a lot of history there.

Coming from the girl

obsessed with history.

That's true.

But I don't know, there's

so much going on right now.

With everything down

at the train depot,

the last thing I need

to think about is love.

I haven't seen you

like this in years.

You're always

so focused on everyone else.

Do something

that makes you happy.

-Oh, I'll get it.

-Thanks.

- Luke Murphy.

- Hi, Katie.

Are you following me?

No, I'm actually here

to see your mom.

Oh. I didn't know

you liked older women.

No, it's not like that.

I'm here to get the permits

signed for the parade.

I'm just messin'.

Come on in.

-Luke!

-Mrs. Valentine.

So good to see you.

-How are you?

-Good. Call me Judy.

My dad asked me to

come by and bring you these.

Perfect.

Will we see you at the parade?

-I wouldn't miss it.

-Awesome.

It is going to be

the best one ever.

Yeah, that's what

everyone keeps telling me.

Katie tells me

she ran into you earlier today.

Yeah. She even gave me

a VIP tour of the train depot.

-I bet she did.

-Yeah.

Speaking of which, Katie,

I reached out to

the banquet hall in town

and I'm pretty sure

I can get us a spot

reserved for Friday

before Christmas.

-You did?

-Banquet hall? What's this?

Oh, we might be

holding a fundraiser

to save

the Holly Depot.

Well, not "maybe."

We're definitely doing it.

And not "fundraiser."

"Christmas gala."

Ooh, Christmas gala.

I like the sound of that.

Luke, you didn't

have to do all that.

I know, I know,

but I wanted to.

I was wondering

if maybe you wanted to

get together tomorrow,

we can go over it?

-Sure.

-Okay, great.

I just have to

figure out a few things first,

then I can text you?

Sure,

I'll take your phone.

-Here's my number.

-Thank you.

Well, I will talk

to you tomorrow,

and it is very

nice to see you Mrs. V.

Judy.

And why don't you stay and help

us finish decorating the tree?

Oh, I don't wanna intrude.

I'm sure you're really busy.

No, it's no bother.

And we could use the help.

Might as well.

Well then, it's settled.

Make yourself comfortable.

Hey, what are you

working on?

- Missing posters for Cupid.

- Who's Cupid?

Santa's reindeer, Cupid!

Haven't you heard of him?

All right,

I know all about Cupid.

I didn't know

he was missing though.

Santa says

he goes missing sometimes

but shows up

whenever there's true love.

Hm, well,

I'll keep a lookout for him.

-I'm Luke, by the way.

-I'm Olivia.

It's very nice

to meet you, Olivia.

How do you know

Aunt Katie?

We're just old friends

from a long time ago.

Are you two

in true love or what?

Olivia!

What?

- Hey, Katie.

- Hey, Francesco.

I think I'm gonna need

something strong today.

Well, we have your favorites.

We have Gianna Loren Rye

and Luca Mariano Bourbon.

I think I'm gonna go

with my girl, Gianna Loren.

Hey, hey. Gianna.

You said it just like

the Italians do.

Parli Italiano?

-Sì. Un poco.

-Un poco, okay.

Well, I'm gonna drink

with you today.

- Thank you.

- I mean,

it seems like there's something

weighin' on your heart.

Well,

I ran into an old friend.

Do you remember Luke?

The, uh,

police chief's son?

Didn't he leave,

like, ten years ago?

I think he's here to stay.

Does he know about your niece,

Olivia, and what happened?

Yeah. I think he's heard.

He was always like a child,

and you became

a single mother overnight.

Yeah.

And I just-- I don't know

if he's ready for all that.

Take it one day at a time.

Yes, I''m gonna

take it one day at a time.

Hey, buddy. Hey, Cupid.

Shoot.

No, no, no, no, no. Stay.

Hey, chief, I got him.

Uh, Cupid, the reindeer.

He's right here

in front of me.

I have no idea

what I'm supposed to do,

do I cuff him?

No, he's--

it's a wa-- oh, he's moving.

He's-- I'm in pursuit.

at venue 111 in downtown Holly.

Okay, so, 100 percent

of all the money raised

is going to the Save Our Holly

Union Depot Foundation?

That's correct.

100 percent of it.

And you can

get your tickets tomorrow night

at the Christmas parade.

This sounds amazing.

If you wanna support

our local history,

you need to come

to the Christmas gala

this Friday.

Thanks Holly.

but I'm pretty sure we're

gonna be able to pull this off

and save this old place.

Oh, yeah?

- Yeah. I'm serious.

- That's great.

Hey. Listen, Luke.

I can't thank you enough.

Everything you''ve been doing,

it's amazing.

-Thank you.

-Yeah.

I'm just happy

I could help.

So--

do you hang out here often?

- Yeah.

- Uh, it's.

It's kinda my place.

I just-- I love it here.

It's quiet, it's peaceful.

No one's bothering me.

Yeah. It's my place.

Hm.

Am I being weirder?

No.

Not at all.

You know, some girls, you know,

when they get stressed,

they like to--

buy fancy clothes

or watch

bad romance movies,

but you--

you like to squat

in old,

abandoned buildings.

It's totally normal.

Okay, I'm guilty.

I love that.

Really?

Yeah, really.

You have a real passion.

I love that.

Hmm, well, it doesn't sound

like you love it.

It sounds weird.

No. You know, really.

I think that's something

that everybody needs.

Well, thank you.

What about you?

What's yours?

My what?

- Your passion.

- Hm.

I'm not sure.

Come on.

You can't always play

Mr. International

Man of Mystery.

I don't know.

I've held so many jobs

over the years

in the service, and...

nothin' ever

really clicked for me.

There's gotta be somethin'.

Well, you know...

ten years ago,

when my mom passed, uh...

I was so lost and scared.

I really wanted

to help her, but I couldn't.

I just--

I never felt so powerless.

Guess I couldn't handle it,

so I-- I left.

Joined the army, I just...

tried not to give

a second thought

to anyone

that I was leavin' behind.

But I did, I--

I thought about everyone.

I thought about them

all the time, my Dad.

I thought about you.

And I always

wanted to reach out, but...

what was I gonna say?

I had so much guilt,

and I just felt like it was

something that I had to do.

The only time

that I ever really...

truly-- felt happy.

Truly passionate

with what I was doing...

was when I was helping people.

Hm.

But we had done

natural disaster cleanup

for a while, and--

those people...

they had lost everything.

And just being able

to offer something to them.

Rescue a pet,

or even just...

find an old picture album

to return to them.

Anything to make them

feel a little bit more normal.

You know?

They wouldn''t always

even say anything, but...

you know, you-- you-- you could

see it in their eyes that...

that it made a difference to

them.

Even just a-- a little bit.

And that,

that always

made me feel really good.

I'm sorry, I'm rambling.

I guess

what I'm trying to say...

is that maybe I'm passionate

about helping people.

I don't even know

if any of that made sense.

That made perfect sense.

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

Luke-- you've helped me

so much this week.

-Yeah.

-And I''m so thankful for that.

Listen, I gotta go

help my mom pack up the car

with the Christmas decorations.

Need a hand?

I'm starting to feel

like your boss or something.

Uh, no, no.

You should take the night off.

Whatever.

But are you gonna go

to the Christmas

parade tomorrow?

Yeah, of course.

All right.

Maybe I'll see you there.

Absolutely.

you've been on a carriage ride?

It's been a while.

What?

You afraid?

No. I'm not.

You're all smiles today.

Thanks, Veronica.

Okay, so, you're not

gonna tell me about

how the other night went?

Oh.

I didn't think you cared.

Why wouldn't I wanna

hear about your hot date

with the handsome

hometown hero?

I'm kidding.

Veronica, it went great.

Yes! What did you do?

Oh, we just walked around town.

We went antiquing.

We went skiing.

Um, he's not that great at it,

but that's okay.

And then we ended up

at Blackthorn for dinner.

Oh, that sounds amazing.

Oh, did I tell you

I have a date

to the Christmas gala?

You did not.

Who are you going with?

Remember the parade yesterday?

The handsome firefighter.

Not yours,

but the other one.

Are you talking

about Jack Ryan?

Yeah.

Oh!

He is such a sweetheart.

Sounds like

Santa brought you

everything you asked for

this year.

He's a triple threat.

He has a car,

a job, and he's cute.

I was really good this year.

I would say.

So, what do I owe you?

Don't worry about it.

I'm assuming

the other drink is for Luke?

Hm. Are you sure?

You do give me

a lot of free coffee.

I mean, it's probably

not the best for business,

but you pay me in gossip.

Well, thank you.

You have a good one.

Thanks.

-Ah.

-Hi, Katie.

-How are you today?

-Hi, Mr. Murphy.

I'm doing great.

Um, is Luke in?

He told me to meet him here.

Uh, no, yeah, he is.

He's just--

he ran to the print shop.

He's gonna be right back.

Come on into the office,

have a seat.

Um, it's a new office,

it's kinda blah.

Maybe you can

help me decorate it?

So--

just a few more days

until the big

Christmas gala.

Yep. Friday.

Ah, I just hope

enough people show up.

I'm a little nervous.

It's gonna be just fine.

In fact,

listenin' to Luke talk,

he thinks you're gonna be--

Hi. Can I help you?

Yes, uh, you wouldn't happen

to be Luke Murphy's father,

-would you?

-I am.

Okay, um,

is he around anywhere?

Uh, he's not.

Oh, man.

Sorry, hey, my name's Tony.

I was stationed

with Luke in Riverside.

Hi, Tony.

Chief Richard Murphy.

-Nice to meet you.

-Very nice to meet you.

And I'm Katie, I'm his--

His, uh,

girlfriend, actually.

Oh. Lucky guy.

Well, Luke told me

so much about you, so I figure

I would stop up here

and surprise him.

Well, you know what,

I'm glad you did.

He's not here right now,

but he's on his way back.

And, uh, what is it

you wanted to see Luke about?

Uh, are you

staying for Christmas?

No, no, no,

I'm just here on business.

Oh,

what kind of business you in?

I'm with Bluth Consulting

in Chicago.

I just came

to finalize some paperwork,

and hopefully we can get it all

sorted out before Christmas.

F-finalize for what?

Oh, we're bringing him

on board as a sales exec.

Yeah, oh, he''s gonna be

a natural at it, man.

I mean, such a way

with words this guy has.

Luke, in sales?

Oh, he didn't tell you?

Oh, this is a sweet gig.

I mean,

we're talkin' six figures.

Money is no issue.

He'll have to

relocate to Chicago.

I'm sorry.

Moving to Chicago?

He hasn't told you--

Um, yeah, don't worry,

I looked at

a bunch of properties for him

and everything,

and I mean-- all luxury places.

Nice digs.

Uh-- I--

I'm sorry, I gotta go.

Katie.

Oh.

Is it somethin' I said?

Uh, no,

it's not you.

Hey, sorry I'm late!

I was getting some more flyers

printed out for the big event.

Katie!

Is everything all right?

Luke.

I can't

talk to you right now.

Katie!

Katie.

Look, I am really sorry

to keep calling you,

but this is all

just a big misunderstanding.

I can explain it all,

I promise.

Please. Call me back.

Hey.

Hey.

Thought I might

find you here.

Can I have a seat?

Luke, what do you want?

Just to explain things.

Like, explain

how you're moving to Chicago?

Well, I don't even know

if I'm gonna be doing that.

Look...

Tony is an old friend,

and he hit me up about

a really good job opportunity.

But I never told him

I was gonna be taking it.

He just--

came in town,

tried to get me to sign on.

Well, are you gonna take it?

I don't know.

I don't think so.

I just told him

I would hear him out.

-But that was before.

-Before what?

I've been

getting to spend

all this time with you.

I'm really sorry.

No.

No, it's my fault.

I should've known better,

and I should've learned.

Luke...

I loved you

when we were kids.

And I was heartbroken

when you left.

But I knew

it was important...

and I was happy for you.

And now

that you're back in my life,

and all those feelings.

Like--

it's like

something awoke in me,

and I feel

like I'm 17 again.

I just-- I felt like there

was so much potential there.

Katie.

I feel the same way.

I really do.

Luke, you don't

even know what you want.

I need

something dependable.

I need someone

that's gonna be around tomorrow

and ten years from now.

You can depend on me,

I swear.

I gotta go.

Katie, wait.

You know,

I brag about you all the time.

-What?

-I do.

To all my friends.

Have I ever told you that?

No.

It's because

I'm so proud of the man

that you have grown into be.

Thanks, Dad.

Luke, you have been

all around the world.

You have seen things

and done things

I can't imagine.

And now

you're back home again.

Small town.

And maybe this isn't where

you thought you would end up.

Maybe it is,

I don't know.

But I do know this.

Just down the road,

there is a woman

that loves you.

-I don''t think she wants--

-Let me finish.

Now, you might think

that this kind of thing

happens all the time.

Love.

Listen to me. It doesn't.

And while you're sittin' here

thinkin' that

love is gonna pass you by,

and I really hope

that doesn't happen.

Because...

I''ll tell you this,

you're not gonna

get a third chance.

I gotta go.

Hey, Dad.

I think

I will go to the gala.

There he is.

If you're gonna

win her back--

do not dress like that.

Well, you sure as fate

can't go dressed like that.

Mom,

I don't need a new car.

But wouldn't it be nice

if he has any shiny and new?

Hey, look,

it's Santa!

Olivia!

So nice to see you.

You too.

-Have you been good?

-Mhm.

I've got somethin' for you.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

Oh, look,

Santa got me a gift!

Wow, where do you think

that came from?

-I don't know.

-Hi, Katie!

Hi, Santa.

Been staying

out of trouble I hope?

Oh, gosh, yes.

I just come here today,

I've got

my new set of wheels.

-Zero money down.

-Wow.

I still like my sleigh.

Well, I know

Olivia's very happy to see you.

That reminds me,

there is this young man,

and he was, like,

really eager

that I give you this letter.

Oh.

Hm.

Ten years ago,

I told you

that I'd be with you forever,

and I left.

You deserve

someone that's gonna

be there for you.

I want this whole town.

I want Christmas.

I want all of it.

And I want us.

Thank you, Santa.

I've got somewhere to be.

-And someone to see?

-Yes.

Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!

Are you ready?

I'm just nervous.

I hope everyone shows up.

They will.

Oh, Olivia!

Katie, you look so pretty.

-So do you.

-Thank you.

I would like to introduce--

Chaplain Silvers,

to come and lead us

in an invocation

for the evening.

Thank you very much.

Would you please bow in prayer

together with me tonight.

Our gracious,

heavenly Father.

You are so good to us.

We thank you

that you are the one

that provides joy

in our souls,

the pep in our step,

and the song in our hearts.

And so, we gather tonight,

as we strive

to raise the resources

necessary for

a relocation project

for the historic

Holly Union Depot.

Amen.

-Hi, Katie.

-Thank you, Richard.

You're welcome.

Hey, mom,

if you''re out there,

could you come up here?

I wanna share this with you.

First off,

thank you all for coming.

Anyone that knows me knows

that I am such

a fan of history.

It's so important to me,

and I am humbled

to look out there

and see so many

that feel the same.

We did it!

We raised the money!

Thank you all so much.

And now, to celebrate,

Katie will be singing us a song

with Aaron Turner

and the Steel Horse Band.

-No, no, no.

-Yes. You will be.

Come on, everybody!

Look!

Oh!

Hi, Santa.

Good job, Cupid.

Let's go home.

And from your favorite

country radio station,

I'm Holly Hutton,

and to recap:

Cupid has been

reunited with Santa.

The Holly Union Depot

has been saved and all is well

in the town of Holly.

Now, we have got

brand new music for you

from our very own.

Here's Marla Moore.

Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!

Santa,

I gotta tell you,

after one week on the job,

these numbers

are impressive.

If we can get the Easter Bunny

and the Tooth Fairy in here,

we could set

some new records.

Wow, I get

my picture on the wall?

-Yes, sir.
