00:08:11,290 --> 00:08:12,324
Me neither.
184
00:08:12,358 --> 00:08:14,926
That one's
for free.
185
00:08:14,961 --> 00:08:18,096
Do you um wanna come
in and meet my family?
186
00:08:19,198 --> 00:08:22,901
You know I'd love to but ah
the clock's ticking for me.
187
00:08:22,935 --> 00:08:24,970
My mom's got this whole
schedule planned.
188
00:08:25,004 --> 00:08:28,640
Dinner, presents, caroling,
it's not to be tampered with.
189
00:08:28,674 --> 00:08:30,075
Sounds like it.
190
00:08:31,077 --> 00:08:34,846
Well, drive safe.
191
00:08:34,881 --> 00:08:36,047
See you in January.
192
00:08:37,583 --> 00:08:39,985
Merry Christmas.
193
00:08:42,855 --> 00:08:43,588
Hey Maggie.
194
00:08:43,623 --> 00:08:45,156
Yeah?
195
00:08:45,191 --> 00:08:47,959
As far as I'm concerned, this
was the best Christmas ever.
196
00:08:51,030 --> 00:08:51,496
See ya.
197
00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:52,430
Bye.
198
00:09:00,239 --> 00:09:02,541
Alan: I know you've
all heard rumblings
199
00:09:02,575 --> 00:09:05,010
and the rumors
are true.
200
00:09:05,044 --> 00:09:07,012
Effective at the start
of the New Year,
201
00:09:07,046 --> 00:09:09,180
the Harrison Gazette
will be joining
202
00:09:09,215 --> 00:09:11,850
the Wrightsbridge family
of publications.
203
00:09:11,884 --> 00:09:13,051
Family?
204
00:09:13,085 --> 00:09:14,986
Is that what they're
calling it?
205
00:09:15,021 --> 00:09:17,689
Folks, things
are changing.
206
00:09:17,723 --> 00:09:19,958
People are getting their news
from the Internet.
207
00:09:19,992 --> 00:09:21,860
Social networks.
208
00:09:21,894 --> 00:09:24,296
Costs are up, subscriptions
are down.
209
00:09:24,330 --> 00:09:27,165
We had to do
this or die.
210
00:09:27,199 --> 00:09:28,800
This all happens
in two weeks?
211
00:09:28,834 --> 00:09:30,135
It's already
a done deal.
212
00:09:30,169 --> 00:09:33,338
The legal stuff doesn't kick
in until January first.
213
00:09:33,372 --> 00:09:35,440
Alan, what does
that mean?
214
00:09:35,474 --> 00:09:37,142
Are our jobs safe?
215
00:09:37,176 --> 00:09:40,011
There's possibility
for promotions.
216
00:09:40,046 --> 00:09:43,448
Wrightsbridge owns a lot bigger
papers than the Gazette.
217
00:09:43,482 --> 00:09:46,284
So you're saying earn the
jobs we already have.
218
00:09:46,319 --> 00:09:48,520
Look I know what you're
all capable of,
219
00:09:48,554 --> 00:09:51,356
now you just need to show
the Wrightsbridge people.
220
00:10:02,935 --> 00:10:04,202
Good morning,
Harrison.
221
00:10:04,236 --> 00:10:08,573
My name is Mitch O'Grady, and I
am your new morning show host.
222
00:10:08,608 --> 00:10:10,875
You're listening to "Good
Morning With Mitch" on WCNQ...
223
00:10:10,910 --> 00:10:12,277
"Good Morning With Mitch"
224
00:10:12,311 --> 00:10:14,713
...Your holiday alternative.
225
00:10:14,747 --> 00:10:17,248
Now for those of you
who don't know me,
226
00:10:17,283 --> 00:10:19,351
let me explain to you
what that means.
227
00:10:19,385 --> 00:10:22,120
It means I won't be
assaulting your ears
228
00:10:22,154 --> 00:10:24,089
with any more
Christmas music.
229
00:10:24,123 --> 00:10:25,323
"Assault"?
230
00:10:25,358 --> 00:10:29,894
Because frankly, you hear enough
of that stuff, at the mall,
231
00:10:29,929 --> 00:10:32,864
at the post office, at
the dentist's office.
232
00:10:32,898 --> 00:10:36,334
Heck, the assault starts
the day after Halloween.
233
00:10:36,369 --> 00:10:39,671
Well I'm happy to say,
it stops with me.
234
00:10:39,705 --> 00:10:42,507
I won't be playing on The
Twelfth Day of Christmas
235
00:10:42,541 --> 00:10:44,609
or any of the rest
of that junk,
236
00:10:44,644 --> 00:10:48,179
however, there will be some
awesome drummers drumming
237
00:10:48,214 --> 00:10:50,015
right after these
messages.
238
00:10:50,049 --> 00:10:53,451
Once again, I'm Mitch O'Grady
fresh from the West Coast,
239
00:10:53,486 --> 00:10:55,353
and happy to be
here in Harrison,
240
00:10:55,388 --> 00:10:59,557
this is "Good Morning With
Mitch", we'll be right back.
241
00:11:05,264 --> 00:11:07,799
"Good morning
with Grinch."
242
00:11:09,435 --> 00:11:10,869
Mitch O'Grady?
243
00:11:29,121 --> 00:11:30,722
The Mitch O'Grady?
244
00:11:30,756 --> 00:11:31,656
Mhm.
245
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:33,024
Are you sure
it's him?
246
00:11:33,059 --> 00:11:36,861
I didn't believe it either, but
I checked WCNQ's website.
247
00:11:36,896 --> 00:11:38,196
It's him.
248
00:11:38,230 --> 00:11:39,264
Wow.
249
00:11:39,932 --> 00:11:41,066
How do you feel?
250
00:11:42,034 --> 00:11:43,835
It made me feel...
251
00:11:43,869 --> 00:11:44,536
Happy?
252
00:11:44,570 --> 00:11:45,637
No.
253
00:11:45,671 --> 00:11:46,371
Oh.
254
00:11:46,405 --> 00:11:47,338
Shock?
255
00:11:48,607 --> 00:11:52,210
I never wanted to see anybody so
much when I went back to school.
256
00:11:52,244 --> 00:11:53,678
And now if
he's here,
257
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,615
I don't know if I want
to see him or not.
258
00:11:57,650 --> 00:11:58,616
Why not?
259
00:11:58,651 --> 00:12:00,552
This is your chance to
find out what happened.
260
00:12:00,586 --> 00:12:01,986
You should call in.
261
00:12:02,021 --> 00:12:03,254
Make a request.
262
00:12:03,289 --> 00:12:06,524
Oh he does not wanna play what I
want to hear this time of year.
263
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,059
He banned Christmas music.
264
00:12:08,094 --> 00:12:09,227
Woah?!
265
00:12:09,261 --> 00:12:13,565
Oh yeah, this coming
from Mr. Christmas.
266
00:12:13,599 --> 00:12:15,900
I don't know, you know,
it's in the past.
267
00:12:15,935 --> 00:12:18,603
People change.
268
00:12:18,637 --> 00:12:20,839
Look I'm a different
person now.
269
00:12:20,873 --> 00:12:22,240
Oh I'm not
buying that.
270
00:12:24,143 --> 00:12:25,376
He's here!
271
00:12:25,411 --> 00:12:26,344
Who?
272
00:12:26,378 --> 00:12:27,345
Mitch!
273
00:12:27,379 --> 00:12:28,012
What?
274
00:12:28,047 --> 00:12:29,114
Where?
275
00:12:30,349 --> 00:12:32,150
Is that him?
276
00:12:32,184 --> 00:12:34,819
Wow he is really
cute.
277
00:12:36,021 --> 00:12:37,021
Mitch!
278
00:12:37,490 --> 00:12:38,289
No, no, no.
279
00:12:38,324 --> 00:12:40,391
Hey, Mitch,
come here.
280
00:12:40,426 --> 00:12:41,192
Oh my god.
281
00:12:41,227 --> 00:12:42,460
Over here!
282
00:12:45,131 --> 00:12:46,831
Remind me to kill
you later.
283
00:12:48,934 --> 00:12:49,501
Hi.
284
00:12:49,535 --> 00:12:50,835
Hey.
285
00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:52,003
Have we met?
286
00:12:54,173 --> 00:12:55,607
But we've met right?
287
00:12:55,641 --> 00:12:56,808
Yeah.
288
00:12:56,842 --> 00:12:58,276
This is Maggie.
289
00:12:58,310 --> 00:13:00,378
You guys had a Christmas
adventure together.
290
00:13:00,412 --> 00:13:03,248
Yeah that's right
ah, Maggie, Chalke?
291
00:13:03,282 --> 00:13:04,682
Yeah.
292
00:13:04,717 --> 00:13:05,817
Hi.
293
00:13:05,851 --> 00:13:09,320
I'm her sister, Grace, and
ah god, look at the time!
294
00:13:09,355 --> 00:13:10,522
I gotta go.
295
00:13:10,556 --> 00:13:11,523
You should stay!
296
00:13:11,557 --> 00:13:12,824
You can take
my seat.
297
00:13:12,858 --> 00:13:14,159
No, Grace...
298
00:13:14,193 --> 00:13:15,560
Wow, Maggie.
299
00:13:15,594 --> 00:13:16,694
You look great.
300
00:13:18,130 --> 00:13:19,130
So do you.
301
00:13:21,233 --> 00:13:22,867
I'll see you later.
302
00:13:22,902 --> 00:13:24,302
Mmmhmm.
303
00:13:24,336 --> 00:13:25,804
It was really nice
meeting you!
304
00:13:25,838 --> 00:13:27,639
You, too, yeah.
305
00:13:27,673 --> 00:13:28,406
Bye.
306
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,440
Bye.
307
00:13:31,410 --> 00:13:33,011
Mitch: So you're
back here now?
308
00:13:33,045 --> 00:13:36,514
Yeah, I moved back after college
to write for the Gazette.
309
00:13:36,549 --> 00:13:38,016
Oh, you're working
for a newspaper.
310
00:13:38,050 --> 00:13:39,184
That's great.
311
00:13:39,218 --> 00:13:41,352
I mean, The Harrison
Gazette isn't exactly
312
00:13:41,387 --> 00:13:46,090
the New York Times, but, you
gotta start somewhere, right?
313
00:13:46,125 --> 00:13:47,859
Yeah.
314
00:13:47,893 --> 00:13:49,894
My problem is I'm
still where I started.
315
00:13:50,663 --> 00:13:52,463
And where do you
wanna to go?
316
00:13:52,498 --> 00:13:54,199
Oh gosh.
317
00:13:54,233 --> 00:13:56,734
Anywhere to advance my
career and get ahead.
318
00:13:56,769 --> 00:14:02,173
Ah Chicago, Boston,
New York, L.A.?
319
00:14:02,208 --> 00:14:04,909
I've been there, that's
definitely where you want to be.
320
00:14:04,944 --> 00:14:05,944
Hmm.
321
00:14:06,412 --> 00:14:09,280
So how did you end
up in Harrison?
322
00:14:10,516 --> 00:14:11,349
I'm sorry.
323
00:14:11,383 --> 00:14:12,350
That came out wrong.
324
00:14:12,384 --> 00:14:14,352
No, no, no, no it's
fine, it's fine.
325
00:14:14,386 --> 00:14:20,024
Um, well, things were good
I was doing my show
326
00:14:20,059 --> 00:14:22,760
"Good Morning With
Mitch" in Duluth.
327
00:14:22,795 --> 00:14:23,728
In Boulder.
328
00:14:23,762 --> 00:14:24,896
Then Dallas.
329
00:14:24,930 --> 00:14:25,997
And then finally L.A.
330
00:14:26,031 --> 00:14:27,398
the big one.
331
00:14:27,433 --> 00:14:29,200
And then Harrison?
332
00:14:29,235 --> 00:14:32,003
Yeah well, nobody told
me that career paths
333
00:14:32,037 --> 00:14:34,372
can also go in
this direction.
334
00:14:34,406 --> 00:14:35,773
So I was in L.A.
335
00:14:35,808 --> 00:14:38,610
and I was on fire
everything was great
336
00:14:38,644 --> 00:14:41,613
and then our station got bought
out by this big company
337
00:14:41,647 --> 00:14:43,581
and they changed the
format to all news
338
00:14:43,616 --> 00:14:45,850
and fired all the music jocks,
it's happening everywhere.
339
00:14:45,885 --> 00:14:48,353
I know, some big company
just bought my paper.
340
00:14:48,387 --> 00:14:49,354
Really?
341
00:14:50,489 --> 00:14:52,857
Well I hope it works out better
for you then it did me.
342
00:14:52,892 --> 00:14:56,227
Anyway ah, I got some job
offers, some late night stuff
343
00:14:56,262 --> 00:14:58,029
but it's not really
my thing right,
344
00:14:58,063 --> 00:15:00,932
I'm "Good Morning
With Mitch,"
345
00:15:00,966 --> 00:15:03,201
so when the morning
guy here left...
346
00:15:03,235 --> 00:15:04,235
Mac.
347
00:15:04,270 --> 00:15:05,003
Yeah.
348
00:15:05,037 --> 00:15:06,804
Yeah Mac was here
a long time.
349
00:15:07,606 --> 00:15:09,007
I liked him.
350
00:15:09,041 --> 00:15:14,012
Mac is good, that's why he's in
Atlanta now and I'm here trying
351
00:15:14,046 --> 00:15:16,714
to make my career path go
in this direction again.
352
00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:20,518
Well you came at
the right time.
353
00:15:21,820 --> 00:15:23,888
Harrison is beautiful
at Christmas.
354
00:15:23,923 --> 00:15:27,225
Yeah, you know, I'm not
really much
355
00:15:27,259 --> 00:15:29,560
of a Christmas
person these days.
356
00:15:29,595 --> 00:15:31,229
I heard that on
the radio.
357
00:15:32,731 --> 00:15:34,265
What's going on?
358
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:35,199
You loved Christmas.
359
00:15:36,969 --> 00:15:40,305
You said your mom covered
the entire house in tinsel.
360
00:15:40,339 --> 00:15:43,875
Yeah, I don't know.
361
00:15:43,909 --> 00:15:45,143
Things change.
362
00:15:50,983 --> 00:15:52,650
Anyway I ah,
I should go.
363
00:15:52,685 --> 00:15:54,986
But ah it was great
seeing you again.
364
00:15:55,020 --> 00:15:57,555
Yeah, ah it was good
to see you too Mitch.
365
00:15:57,589 --> 00:16:00,425
And ah you know maybe
I'll see you around.
366
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:01,693
Mitch O'Grady?
367
00:16:01,727 --> 00:16:03,261
Yeah.
368
00:16:03,295 --> 00:16:05,697
You're the new
radio guy.
369
00:16:05,731 --> 00:16:07,765
I thought that was
your voice.
370
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:08,499
Hi.
371
00:16:08,534 --> 00:16:10,001
I'm Brianna Parker.
372
00:16:10,035 --> 00:16:12,170
I own the yoga studio
here in town.
373
00:16:12,204 --> 00:16:14,038
Hi, nice to
meet you.
374
00:16:14,907 --> 00:16:16,174
Welcome to Harrison.
375
00:16:17,843 --> 00:16:19,177
Thanks.
376
00:16:19,211 --> 00:16:22,280
That's a, that's quite a
greeting you have there.
377
00:16:22,314 --> 00:16:24,682
Oh, we're a
friendly town.
378
00:16:24,917 --> 00:16:26,017
Not that friendly.
379
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,521
Ah so, the morning guy
is usually quite
380
00:16:30,556 --> 00:16:32,023
the celebrity in
these parts.
381
00:16:32,057 --> 00:16:35,126
But I mean you, from
Los Angeles, here?
382
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:36,928
It's so exciting.
383
00:16:36,962 --> 00:16:38,663
Well, thank you.
384
00:16:38,697 --> 00:16:40,665
You know you and your
friend should take
385
00:16:40,699 --> 00:16:42,133
a free introductory
class.
386
00:16:42,167 --> 00:16:43,801
Oh, thanks,
but I'm not...
387
00:16:43,836 --> 00:16:46,104
Oh that's okay
then just Mitch.
388
00:16:46,138 --> 00:16:49,273
You know, I'm not really
much of a yoga person.
389
00:16:49,308 --> 00:16:53,111
Everyone says that at first, but
ah once I get my hands on you,
390
00:16:53,145 --> 00:16:54,312
you'll be a believer.
391
00:16:55,581 --> 00:16:56,748
Sure.
392
00:16:56,782 --> 00:16:59,350
Anyway, um I'm just
gonna go grab a coffee
393
00:16:59,385 --> 00:17:00,985
and then I'm
off to teach.
394
00:17:01,020 --> 00:17:02,353
See you again,
I hope.
395
00:17:02,388 --> 00:17:03,254
Sure.
396
00:17:03,288 --> 00:17:04,555
Here's my card.
397
00:17:05,424 --> 00:17:06,924
Thank you.
398
00:17:10,429 --> 00:17:11,662
See?
399
00:17:11,697 --> 00:17:14,832
Your first Harrison
Christmas miracle.
400
00:17:14,867 --> 00:17:16,367
Free yoga.
401
00:17:16,702 --> 00:17:18,403
I don't believe in
Christmas miracles.
402
00:17:20,906 --> 00:17:22,373
I'll see you around.
403
00:17:22,408 --> 00:17:24,208
Sounds good.
404
00:17:35,721 --> 00:17:38,956
So, what happened
with Mitch?
405
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:41,526
Was it amazing to
see him again?
406
00:17:42,461 --> 00:17:45,196
It was, interesting.
407
00:17:46,365 --> 00:17:48,066
That's it?
408
00:17:49,301 --> 00:17:52,303
You didn't ask him why he
disappeared back in college?
409
00:17:52,337 --> 00:17:53,738
No.
410
00:17:53,772 --> 00:17:55,540
He's definitely not
the same guy, though.
411
00:17:56,675 --> 00:17:59,677
Honestly, he loved
Christmas so much.
412
00:17:59,711 --> 00:18:00,711
I don't get it.
413
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:02,046
How do you
lose that?
414
00:18:03,549 --> 00:18:04,916
I can't imagine.
415
00:18:04,950 --> 00:18:06,551
That's really sad.
416
00:18:06,585 --> 00:18:08,252
Yeah, it is.
417
00:18:11,990 --> 00:18:14,659
I wish there was something
I could do for him.
418
00:18:19,164 --> 00:18:21,132
I got it!
419
00:18:22,701 --> 00:18:26,404

on the tree? ♪
420
00:18:26,438 --> 00:18:28,840

426
00:18:47,226 --> 00:18:49,360
Are we having construction
paper for dinner?
427
00:18:49,394 --> 00:18:50,895
What?
428
00:18:50,929 --> 00:18:54,065
Oh right, dinner!
429
00:18:54,099 --> 00:18:56,734
I was supposed to
be making us dinner.
430
00:18:56,768 --> 00:18:59,570
I'm so sorry, Grace, I
completely forgot.
431
00:18:59,605 --> 00:19:01,539
I see that.
432
00:19:01,573 --> 00:19:03,474
What are you doing?
433
00:19:03,509 --> 00:19:06,477
I'm gonna be Mitch's
Secret Santa.
434
00:19:06,512 --> 00:19:07,311
What?
435
00:19:07,346 --> 00:19:08,813
Mhmm.
436
00:19:08,847 --> 00:19:12,049
He once gave me one of the most
magical Christmas's of my life
437
00:19:12,084 --> 00:19:13,518
when I almost
missed it.
438
00:19:13,552 --> 00:19:18,456
So I thought, that I would add a
little magic to his Christmas.
439
00:19:18,490 --> 00:19:19,924
Pay him back.
440
00:19:19,958 --> 00:19:21,325
Okay.
441
00:19:21,360 --> 00:19:22,894
Just a few
small gifts.
442
00:19:23,929 --> 00:19:25,429
Seriously.
443
00:19:26,198 --> 00:19:30,067
It'll be inspired by the
12 days of Christmas.
444
00:19:30,102 --> 00:19:32,303
12 Secret
Santa gifts.
445
00:19:32,337 --> 00:19:33,905
What kind of gifts?
446
00:19:33,939 --> 00:19:37,341
Okay well the first one
I've got figured out.
447
00:19:37,376 --> 00:19:39,577
A snowman like the
one we built.
448
00:19:40,312 --> 00:19:42,547
It was the first thing
that we did together
449
00:19:42,581 --> 00:19:45,550
that made me forget I was
missing Christmas at home.
450
00:19:45,918 --> 00:19:48,219
Don't you think he's gonna
figure out it's you?
451
00:19:48,253 --> 00:19:51,022
I mean you're the only person
in town that he knows.
452
00:19:51,056 --> 00:19:52,156
Oh yeah.
453
00:19:52,191 --> 00:19:53,457
He may.
454
00:19:53,492 --> 00:19:56,694
You know, so what, it's
still a nice thing to do.
455
00:19:56,728 --> 00:20:00,464
And it's a fun reminder of
what Christmas was,
456
00:20:00,499 --> 00:20:03,401
is and still
can be.
457
00:20:03,435 --> 00:20:07,538
And this is all just
to pay him back right?
458
00:20:09,274 --> 00:20:11,475
Okay, come on was it
nice to see him?
459
00:20:11,510 --> 00:20:12,643
Yes.
460
00:20:13,445 --> 00:20:15,513
Have I thought about
him all these years?
461
00:20:15,547 --> 00:20:17,215
Yes.
462
00:20:17,249 --> 00:20:19,951
Do I wanna know why he
never came back to college?
463
00:20:19,985 --> 00:20:21,319
Yes.
464
00:20:21,353 --> 00:20:24,322
Did the woman in the coffee
shop who was flirting with him
465
00:20:24,356 --> 00:20:26,591
'cause he's on the
radio bother me?
466
00:20:27,526 --> 00:20:28,292
Maybe a little.
467
00:20:28,327 --> 00:20:31,329
Oh, the truth
comes out.
468
00:20:32,631 --> 00:20:36,133
Is it the right thing to
do for the right reason?
469
00:20:37,336 --> 00:20:39,537
Yes.
470
00:20:47,112 --> 00:20:47,912
Come on in.
471
00:20:49,214 --> 00:20:50,681
You wanted to see
me, Alan?
472
00:20:50,716 --> 00:20:51,782
Yes I did.
473
00:20:51,817 --> 00:20:53,618
Maggie Chalke, this
is Ryan Gallagher.
474
00:20:53,652 --> 00:20:54,885
SVP of marketing
at Writsbridge.
475
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:55,886
Nice to meet you.
476
00:20:55,921 --> 00:20:57,088
You as well.
477
00:20:57,122 --> 00:20:59,423
You know I was just telling
Alan that we've done studies
478
00:20:59,458 --> 00:21:01,192
on what keeps people
reading our papers.
479
00:21:01,226 --> 00:21:03,694
Personally I'd like to believe
that it's for the news,
480
00:21:03,729 --> 00:21:06,430
but in fact, it's for the
human-interest stories.
481
00:21:06,465 --> 00:21:07,798
I'm not surprised.
482
00:21:07,833 --> 00:21:09,700
It's what I like
to read first.
483
00:21:09,735 --> 00:21:12,703
And I've read your work,
you're very good in that area.
484
00:21:12,738 --> 00:21:13,938
Thank you.
485
00:21:13,972 --> 00:21:15,973
And we think that if you can
create a human-interest story
486
00:21:16,008 --> 00:21:17,975
this Christmas that
really, you know,
487
00:21:18,010 --> 00:21:19,410
just captures the
public's imagination,
488
00:21:19,444 --> 00:21:20,911
we promote it with
social media,
489
00:21:20,946 --> 00:21:23,914
I think we'll be able to lock
in a brand new readership
490
00:21:23,949 --> 00:21:24,682
for the Gazette.
491
00:21:24,716 --> 00:21:25,449
Create?
492
00:21:25,484 --> 00:21:27,118
Like make one up?
493
00:21:27,152 --> 00:21:28,419
I don't do that.
494
00:21:28,453 --> 00:21:30,321
We don't do that.
495
00:21:30,355 --> 00:21:32,590
We're not asking you to
make anything up Maggie.
496
00:21:32,624 --> 00:21:33,724
Find one.
497
00:21:33,759 --> 00:21:36,260
Be more of a Wrightsbridge
kind of reporter.
498
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:38,996
In that case, I will
do my best.
499
00:21:39,031 --> 00:21:40,765
I would love to
keep my job.
500
00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:43,301
We're gonna do our best
to make sure that happens.
501
00:21:44,703 --> 00:21:46,003
You know what, Alan?
502
00:21:46,038 --> 00:21:47,772
I'd like you guys
to join us
503
00:21:47,806 --> 00:21:50,741
for the Wrightsbridge
annual Christmas party.
504
00:21:50,776 --> 00:21:51,609
It's this weekend.
505
00:21:52,611 --> 00:21:53,911
Let's get to know each
other better, shall we?
506
00:21:53,945 --> 00:21:55,680
We'd love that, Isn't
that right, Maggie?
507
00:21:55,714 --> 00:21:57,181
You bet.
508
00:21:57,215 --> 00:21:58,449
Thank you, Mr.
Gallagher.
509
00:22:00,686 --> 00:22:02,787
This is Mitch in the
morning WCNQ,
510
00:22:02,821 --> 00:22:05,222
we'll be taking all your
non-Christmas requests
511
00:22:05,257 --> 00:22:07,925
right after a word
from our sponsors.
512
00:22:08,860 --> 00:22:10,094
What's up?
513
00:22:10,128 --> 00:22:16,300
Only a couple of weeks here, and
you are already getting mail.
514
00:22:16,335 --> 00:22:16,934
Mail?
515
00:22:16,968 --> 00:22:18,602
Really?
516
00:22:18,637 --> 00:22:19,904
Yeah, open it.
517
00:22:21,973 --> 00:22:23,441
Come on, come on.
518
00:22:35,620 --> 00:22:40,224
On the first day of Christmas,
your Secret Santa gives to thee,
519
00:22:40,292 --> 00:22:44,061
Not of steel, nor straw,
nor wood is he made.
520
00:22:44,096 --> 00:22:47,198
Build him now
before he fades.
521
00:22:47,232 --> 00:22:50,835
Merry Christmas,
your Secret Santa.
522
00:22:53,071 --> 00:22:56,040
Somebody put a lot of
time into making this.
523
00:22:57,109 --> 00:22:59,744
Why would somebody
send me this?
524
00:22:59,778 --> 00:23:02,847
Obviously inspired by your
upbeat and delightful demeanor.
525
00:23:03,949 --> 00:23:06,450
Or maybe they have too
much time on their hands.
526
00:23:06,918 --> 00:23:08,219
Come on.
527
00:23:08,253 --> 00:23:10,921
Oh this is cute.
528
00:23:10,956 --> 00:23:13,791
Snowman eyes.
529
00:23:13,825 --> 00:23:15,960
Yeah, yeah it's
really cute.
530
00:23:19,398 --> 00:23:21,031
I'm back in twenty.
531
00:23:32,477 --> 00:23:34,545
Did he say anything
about the first one?
532
00:23:34,579 --> 00:23:35,746
To me?
533
00:23:35,781 --> 00:23:36,347
No.
534
00:23:36,381 --> 00:23:37,515
On air?
535
00:23:37,549 --> 00:23:38,849
I haven't heard
anything.
536
00:23:39,918 --> 00:23:42,853
You could just tell
him how you feel.
537
00:23:42,888 --> 00:23:45,589
I don't really know
how I feel.
538
00:23:45,624 --> 00:23:46,390
Uh-huh.
539
00:23:50,629 --> 00:23:52,696
Okay, let's go.
540
00:23:52,731 --> 00:23:54,165
There's more stores
I wanna hit.
541
00:24:00,605 --> 00:24:04,074
Looks like your Secret Santa
isn't a one-trick pony.
542
00:24:06,178 --> 00:24:07,244
Really?
543
00:24:10,382 --> 00:24:12,683
Okay.
544
00:24:26,364 --> 00:24:30,568
On the second day of Christmas,
your Secret Santa gives to thee.
545
00:24:30,602 --> 00:24:33,003
To lift your spirits
all the way,
546
00:24:33,038 --> 00:24:37,374
take a ride in a
horse drawn sleigh.
547
00:24:37,409 --> 00:24:39,643
Merry Christmas,
your Secret Santa.
548
00:24:39,678 --> 00:24:40,845
Okay.
549
00:24:40,879 --> 00:24:41,879
That's cute.
550
00:24:45,417 --> 00:24:47,918
She wants you to go
on a carriage ride.
551
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,254
How do you know
it's a she?
552
00:24:50,288 --> 00:24:51,789
Of course
it's a she.
553
00:24:51,823 --> 00:24:54,391
And she wants you to
go build a snowman.
554
00:24:54,426 --> 00:24:55,893
that was the
first one, right?
555
00:24:55,927 --> 00:24:57,294
Oh please.
556
00:24:57,329 --> 00:24:58,729
You should do it.
557
00:24:58,763 --> 00:25:00,598
We could do
a remote
558
00:25:00,632 --> 00:25:02,366
and make it part
of the show.
559
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,701
For Christmas.
560
00:25:03,735 --> 00:25:06,470
I'll bet she's sending you
twelve of them, too.
561
00:25:06,505 --> 00:25:08,572
Christmas is not my
thing remember.
562
00:25:08,607 --> 00:25:10,574
Mitch, people
would love this.
563
00:25:12,143 --> 00:25:16,247
I hired you because you
were a big-time L.A. jock
564
00:25:16,281 --> 00:25:19,216
who connected
with his audience.
565
00:25:19,251 --> 00:25:20,784
You need to do
that here.
566
00:25:20,819 --> 00:25:22,419
And I will.
567
00:25:22,454 --> 00:25:26,423
Once Christmas is over, we'll
do a New Year's thing, alright.
568
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:30,728
We're not waiting
until New Year's.
569
00:25:33,765 --> 00:25:36,400
Hi could you get me
the Harrison Gazette.
570
00:25:36,434 --> 00:25:38,736
Thanks.
571
00:25:38,770 --> 00:25:41,071
Alan Kramer's
office, please.
572
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,315
Mitch: Oh yeah reliving caller
Sabrina's senior prom
573
00:25:51,349 --> 00:25:52,216
with that one.
574
00:25:52,250 --> 00:25:53,617
This is "Good Morning
With Mitch."
575
00:25:53,652 --> 00:25:54,919
We're taking requests.
576
00:25:54,953 --> 00:25:56,820
Caller 19, you're
on the air.
577
00:25:56,855 --> 00:25:58,389
Hi, this is Dawn
from Harrison.
578
00:25:58,423 --> 00:26:00,624
I was gonna put my
request on the website,
579
00:26:00,659 --> 00:26:02,126
but then I
had to call.
580
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,428
Because you were missing
my cheerful, upbeat,
581
00:26:04,462 --> 00:26:05,930
demeanor weren't you?
582
00:26:05,964 --> 00:26:08,432
No, I just wondered if
you had any idea
583
00:26:08,466 --> 00:26:09,867
who your Secret
Santa is.
584
00:26:11,570 --> 00:26:13,604
Mitch: H-how'd you
know about that?
585
00:26:13,638 --> 00:26:14,872
It's on the website.
586
00:26:14,906 --> 00:26:15,806
It is?
587
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,041
Don't you want
to know?
588
00:26:17,075 --> 00:26:18,642
I'd want to know.
589
00:26:18,677 --> 00:26:20,711
Do you have a
request, Dawn?
590
00:26:26,217 --> 00:26:29,053
They put my Secret Santa
gifts on the website!
591
00:26:29,588 --> 00:26:31,989
You put my Secret Santa
stuff on the website?!
592
00:26:32,023 --> 00:26:33,123
Why?
593
00:26:33,158 --> 00:26:36,460
Because I'm the program director
here and call me crazy,
594
00:26:36,494 --> 00:26:39,196
I would actually like people
to listen to your show.
595
00:26:39,230 --> 00:26:41,832
But that's my own
personal property.
596
00:26:41,866 --> 00:26:44,668
Mmm, technically speaking,
once you threw it
597
00:26:44,703 --> 00:26:48,806
into a company trash can, it
became company property.
598
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,908
I saw that on Law
and Order once.
599
00:26:50,942 --> 00:26:52,076
Really?
600
00:26:52,110 --> 00:26:53,978
You're gonna pull
that on me?
601
00:26:54,012 --> 00:26:56,647
Mitch, you didn't come
with your own fan base.
602
00:26:56,681 --> 00:26:58,916
So we need to build
you a new one.
603
00:26:58,950 --> 00:27:01,485
I'm just kick-starting
it a little bit.
604
00:27:02,554 --> 00:27:05,723
Look, I'm grateful, really I
am, but I'd prefer not
605
00:27:05,757 --> 00:27:07,725
to talk about that
stuff on the air.
606
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:10,461
Sorry just finish your show
and we'll talk about it later.
607
00:27:10,495 --> 00:27:12,496
I don't, so weird.
608
00:27:13,565 --> 00:27:16,333
This is Mitch and we're
back taking your calls
609
00:27:16,368 --> 00:27:17,868
at the top of
the hour.
610
00:27:20,572 --> 00:27:22,539
Maggie: You want
me to do what?
611
00:27:22,574 --> 00:27:26,377
I want you to write a story
about that new L.A. DJ.
612
00:27:26,411 --> 00:27:28,979
And work in the whole
Secret Santa thing.
613
00:27:29,014 --> 00:27:30,514
It's human interest,
right?
614
00:27:30,548 --> 00:27:31,382
Mitch?
615
00:27:31,416 --> 00:27:32,316
Yeah, Mitch O'Leary.
616
00:27:32,350 --> 00:27:33,017
O'Grady.
617
00:27:33,051 --> 00:27:33,751
Right.
618
00:27:35,186 --> 00:27:39,156
I know he's new, I'm just
not really seeing...
619
00:27:39,190 --> 00:27:41,325
WCNQ is a bronze-level
advertiser with us.
620
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,061
Rita wants the press, and
you're gonna give it to her.
621
00:27:44,095 --> 00:27:46,330
And you don't even have
to "create" the story.
622
00:27:46,364 --> 00:27:48,265
But there's no story.
623
00:27:48,299 --> 00:27:50,868
It's just two Secret
Santa gifts.
624
00:27:52,637 --> 00:27:53,704
What's the big deal?
625
00:27:53,738 --> 00:27:55,973
We do Secret Santa
here every year.
626
00:27:56,007 --> 00:28:00,010
Look, this is a
small town.
627
00:28:00,045 --> 00:28:02,246
You present this right, all
the women in town
628
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,616
will be looking at each other
wondering, "Is she the one?"
629
00:28:05,650 --> 00:28:06,750
That's what we want.
630
00:28:06,785 --> 00:28:08,585
Hey, it may even
turn romantic
631
00:28:08,620 --> 00:28:10,554
when we finally find
out who she is.
632
00:28:10,588 --> 00:28:11,722
Yes, but...
633
00:28:11,756 --> 00:28:12,723
No buts.
634
00:28:12,757 --> 00:28:14,825
I already spoke to Ryan
on the phone about this
635
00:28:14,859 --> 00:28:15,859
and he loves it.
636
00:28:17,028 --> 00:28:20,064
Shiny new morning DJ in town
from the big city already
637
00:28:20,098 --> 00:28:22,499
has a Secret Santa
for Christmas.
638
00:28:22,534 --> 00:28:24,034
Hmm.
639
00:28:24,269 --> 00:28:26,236
Do I have to write
it for you?
640
00:28:26,271 --> 00:28:27,071
No.
641
00:28:27,105 --> 00:28:29,573
No, no, no
you don't.
642
00:28:31,042 --> 00:28:35,646
If you and Ryan want
this, I will do my best.
643
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:40,184
Maggie, I want you to knock
this outta the park, alright?
644
00:28:40,218 --> 00:28:43,654
We need to impress
Wrightsbridge, okay?
645
00:28:44,789 --> 00:28:46,824
Absolutely.
646
00:28:46,925 --> 00:28:48,692
So, now Alan wants
you to write
647
00:28:48,727 --> 00:28:51,495
about your Secret Santa
gifts as a story.
648
00:28:51,529 --> 00:28:54,164
Isn't that against
some kinda code?
649
00:28:54,199 --> 00:28:55,933
If you mean that it
profoundly jeopardizes
650
00:28:55,967 --> 00:28:58,802
my journalistic
integrity, then yes.
651
00:28:58,837 --> 00:29:00,237
So you said
no, right?
652
00:29:00,271 --> 00:29:01,505
How do I do
that?
653
00:29:01,539 --> 00:29:04,508
If I don't write this story, I
might not keep my job.
654
00:29:04,542 --> 00:29:06,343
Yeah but this was
never about work.
655
00:29:06,377 --> 00:29:09,480
No, exactly, it was only
about helping Mitch.
656
00:29:09,514 --> 00:29:10,848
It still is.
657
00:29:12,217 --> 00:29:14,284
You're sending all 12
aren't you?
658
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:16,787
What could go wrong?
659
00:29:18,223 --> 00:29:19,556
♪ Baby ♪
660
00:29:20,558 --> 00:29:23,794
♪ Cast your spell
on me ♪
661
00:29:26,898 --> 00:29:29,233
Way tooi Christmas-y
so just see,
662
00:29:29,267 --> 00:29:31,335
you know I'll
probably say no.
663
00:29:31,369 --> 00:29:34,671
And this one too, I
can't stand that one.
664
00:29:34,706 --> 00:29:36,006
Hey!
665
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,775
Hey.
666
00:29:37,809 --> 00:29:39,009
Mitch: Ah, thanks.
667
00:29:40,678 --> 00:29:42,312
What are you
doing here?
668
00:29:42,347 --> 00:29:46,350
My newspaper wants me
to do a story on you.
669
00:29:46,384 --> 00:29:49,686
The shiny new big time
DJ in the small town,
670
00:29:49,721 --> 00:29:53,991
and ah well some gifts
that you got maybe.
671
00:29:56,327 --> 00:29:57,761
Ah I don't
believe it.
672
00:29:59,364 --> 00:30:01,799
Ah, this is
Rita's doing.
673
00:30:02,867 --> 00:30:05,969
Look no offense but I,
I, I don't think so.
674
00:30:06,004 --> 00:30:07,905
She may have talked
to my boss.
675
00:30:07,939 --> 00:30:11,742
Yeah I guess I could use
the publicity, but really?
676
00:30:11,776 --> 00:30:13,877
Hey, it's
your choice.
677
00:30:13,912 --> 00:30:16,146
I can't make
you do it.
678
00:30:20,718 --> 00:30:24,121
Do you wanna
get a coffee?
679
00:30:24,155 --> 00:30:26,456
Yeah, sure.
680
00:30:26,491 --> 00:30:27,491
I'll get my coat.
681
00:30:29,961 --> 00:30:31,361
Thank you.
682
00:30:31,396 --> 00:30:33,630
Do you think the wires
would pick it up?
683
00:30:33,665 --> 00:30:35,465
I didn't think you
were interested.
684
00:30:35,500 --> 00:30:38,101
Humor me.
685
00:30:38,136 --> 00:30:39,603
I doubt it.
686
00:30:39,637 --> 00:30:43,540
Nothing personal, but it's
a small regional story.
687
00:30:44,075 --> 00:30:47,878
Still, there's no such thing
as bad publicity, right?
688
00:30:47,912 --> 00:30:50,247
Of course there is.
689
00:30:50,281 --> 00:30:53,784
It's just that, part of a
DJ's value to a station
690
00:30:53,818 --> 00:30:57,187
is their brand awareness
in the marketplace.
691
00:30:57,288 --> 00:30:58,789
I'm thinking I
need to build
692
00:30:58,823 --> 00:31:00,591
the "Good Morning With
Mitch" brand here,
693
00:31:00,625 --> 00:31:02,226
like I did everywhere
else.
694
00:31:02,260 --> 00:31:04,228
Plus it might be
good for me.
695
00:31:04,262 --> 00:31:06,496
Well, yes...
696
00:31:06,531 --> 00:31:09,266
I mean if there are already
people commenting on
697
00:31:09,300 --> 00:31:12,102
the station's website after just
these first two things
698
00:31:12,136 --> 00:31:15,906
then who am I to stand in
the way of a good story?
699
00:31:15,940 --> 00:31:17,107
Maybe Rita's right.
700
00:31:17,141 --> 00:31:20,711
Maybe I should just do what
this Secret Santa wants.
701
00:31:20,745 --> 00:31:22,079
You can write it.
702
00:31:22,113 --> 00:31:23,347
The first thing
was what?
703
00:31:23,381 --> 00:31:26,216
Build a snowman I mean that's
that's pretty simple.
704
00:31:31,589 --> 00:31:33,190
Let's do it.
705
00:31:42,934 --> 00:31:44,534
I can't believe
I'm doing this.
706
00:31:44,569 --> 00:31:46,470
It was your idea.
707
00:31:46,504 --> 00:31:47,671
Yeah, yeah.
708
00:31:47,705 --> 00:31:50,574
Actually, would you
like to do the honors?
709
00:31:51,409 --> 00:31:53,977
No, I'm a journalist.
710
00:31:54,012 --> 00:31:56,780
I'm not supposed to
be part of the story.
711
00:31:56,814 --> 00:31:57,714
Really?
712
00:31:57,749 --> 00:31:58,715
Yeah.
713
00:31:58,750 --> 00:32:01,785
What about helping
out a friend?
714
00:32:04,389 --> 00:32:05,389
It's really pretty
simple,
715
00:32:05,423 --> 00:32:07,491
you just put them right
there and there.
716
00:32:07,525 --> 00:32:08,625
Okay.
717
00:32:12,063 --> 00:32:13,096
And there he is.
718
00:32:13,131 --> 00:32:15,265
There he is.
719
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:17,367
Okay stay right there.
720
00:32:17,402 --> 00:32:18,402
No, no, no, no.
721
00:32:18,436 --> 00:32:20,837
You have to be in
the picture too.
722
00:32:20,872 --> 00:32:26,910
Oh well I have to document
your creation for the story so.
723
00:32:26,945 --> 00:32:28,578
We'll take a selfie.
724
00:32:30,081 --> 00:32:30,881
Come on.
725
00:32:33,584 --> 00:32:34,384
Are you ready?
726
00:32:34,419 --> 00:32:35,585
Yep.
727
00:32:35,620 --> 00:32:36,687
Here we go.
728
00:32:39,724 --> 00:32:40,390
Nice.
729
00:32:40,425 --> 00:32:41,391
I got it.
730
00:32:41,426 --> 00:32:43,493
One more, me
and you.
731
00:32:48,700 --> 00:32:49,866
You got it?
732
00:32:52,770 --> 00:32:53,603
That's pretty good.
733
00:32:53,638 --> 00:32:54,438
Yeah.
734
00:32:59,744 --> 00:33:00,744
Shall we go?
735
00:33:01,980 --> 00:33:02,913
Yeah.
736
00:33:06,818 --> 00:33:09,152
How interested are you in
finding out the identity
737
00:33:09,187 --> 00:33:11,321
of your Secret Santa?
738
00:33:11,356 --> 00:33:12,422
I'm not really.
739
00:33:12,457 --> 00:33:15,192
I mean I kinda feel bad for
this woman to be honest.
740
00:33:15,226 --> 00:33:16,960
Rita's pretty sure
it's a woman.
741
00:33:16,995 --> 00:33:17,627
Oh yeah.
742
00:33:17,662 --> 00:33:19,129
I think it's
a woman too.
743
00:33:19,163 --> 00:33:21,365
I mean here she is
putting all this time
744
00:33:21,399 --> 00:33:24,067
and effort into these
really wonderful gifts
745
00:33:24,102 --> 00:33:28,238
and all I'm doing is just using
them to promote my show.
746
00:33:28,906 --> 00:33:32,342
Well at least you're thinking
about her feelings.
747
00:33:32,377 --> 00:33:34,211
Yeah.
748
00:33:34,245 --> 00:33:37,514
I mean who knows, she could
turn out to be my soul mate.
749
00:33:38,950 --> 00:33:42,019
Do you believe
in soul mates?
750
00:33:42,053 --> 00:33:44,054
Why not?
751
00:33:44,088 --> 00:33:44,955
Don't you?
752
00:33:46,758 --> 00:33:49,693
I believe that anything can
happen at Christmas time.
753
00:33:53,331 --> 00:33:54,131
Yeah.
754
00:33:55,633 --> 00:33:57,434
That's the problem,
isn't it?
755
00:34:07,945 --> 00:34:09,312
Tomorrow's edition.
756
00:34:11,182 --> 00:34:13,116
Your article
looks good.
757
00:34:13,951 --> 00:34:15,619
Need more pictures.
758
00:34:15,653 --> 00:34:17,921
Alan said the
same thing.
759
00:34:17,955 --> 00:34:20,891
He and Ryan wanna make it a
series through Christmas.
760
00:34:21,926 --> 00:34:23,860
You should be happy.
761
00:34:23,895 --> 00:34:26,596
Looks like you'll be keeping
your job after all.
762
00:34:36,107 --> 00:34:38,341
Grace: Oh yeah, what
could go wrong?
763
00:34:38,376 --> 00:34:40,544
I don't know
what to do.
764
00:34:40,578 --> 00:34:42,179
Well you can't
turn them down.
765
00:34:42,213 --> 00:34:44,014
No, it has been
strongly hinted
766
00:34:44,048 --> 00:34:46,349
that I would lose
my job if I did.
767
00:34:46,384 --> 00:34:49,052
Then tell the truth.
768
00:34:49,087 --> 00:34:51,121
Then I would lose
my job for sure.
769
00:34:52,290 --> 00:34:53,557
Stop sending gifts?
770
00:34:53,591 --> 00:34:55,292
Well then I wouldn't
be able to...
771
00:34:55,326 --> 00:34:57,227
Don't say it.
772
00:34:57,261 --> 00:34:59,763
You have feelings for
him again, don't you?
773
00:35:00,431 --> 00:35:02,399
You don't have
to answer that.
774
00:35:02,433 --> 00:35:06,770
"His deep resonating voice
pours out of the radio,
775
00:35:06,804 --> 00:35:08,538
welcoming you
to his world."
776
00:35:08,573 --> 00:35:09,639
That's true.
777
00:35:09,674 --> 00:35:10,974
He has a terrific
voice.
778
00:35:11,008 --> 00:35:12,642
Uh-huh.
779
00:35:12,677 --> 00:35:14,578
"And though he doesn't
know the identity
780
00:35:14,612 --> 00:35:17,447
of his Secret Santa,
the handsome DJ
781
00:35:17,482 --> 00:35:21,118
is ready to jump in the snow
and fulfill her request."
782
00:35:21,152 --> 00:35:22,853
He is handsome.
783
00:35:22,887 --> 00:35:24,488
That is just good
reporting.
784
00:35:25,790 --> 00:35:28,158
Well, you can't argue
with that.
785
00:35:30,194 --> 00:35:33,430
Okay so Santa Claus he's got
those elves is he paying them,
786
00:35:33,464 --> 00:35:36,066
do they have some sort of
a minimum wage?
787
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:40,804
The reindeer I mean these
poor guys are flying around
788
00:35:40,838 --> 00:35:44,908
the planet carrying him and the
man is not exactly svelte.
789
00:35:47,178 --> 00:35:50,313
You have two dozen new
fan letters today.
790
00:35:50,348 --> 00:35:51,181
Really?
791
00:35:51,215 --> 00:35:53,150
Count 'em.
792
00:35:53,184 --> 00:35:56,653
Rita I gotta ask you and don't
get offended but, is it you?
793
00:35:56,687 --> 00:35:58,155
Are you sending me
these gifts?
794
00:35:58,189 --> 00:36:01,424
It is brilliant and I wish that
I could take credit for it
795
00:36:01,459 --> 00:36:03,960
but no, I am not
your Secret Santa.
796
00:36:03,995 --> 00:36:05,896
Well I just I
had to ask
797
00:36:05,930 --> 00:36:07,931
because you're using them
very effectively.
798
00:36:07,965 --> 00:36:11,368
Well it's my job
and it's working.
799
00:36:11,402 --> 00:36:14,771
It's like its Christmas
in here all of a sudden.
800
00:36:14,805 --> 00:36:17,374
And actually it is
Christmas in here
801
00:36:17,408 --> 00:36:20,477
so maybe you could start playing
some Christmas music.
802
00:36:20,511 --> 00:36:22,946
Enough with the Grinch
stuff already.
803
00:36:22,980 --> 00:36:24,915
Fine.
804
00:36:25,283 --> 00:36:27,350
So, a carriage ride.
805
00:36:27,385 --> 00:36:29,853
There is one guy in town
who rents a horse
806
00:36:29,887 --> 00:36:31,755
and carriage ride
in the park.
807
00:36:31,789 --> 00:36:34,824
Last time I was around
a horse was at camp.
808
00:36:34,859 --> 00:36:36,193
And the horse
hated me.
809
00:36:36,227 --> 00:36:37,961
What do you mean
he hated you?
810
00:36:37,995 --> 00:36:40,230
He tried to bit me every
chance he could.
811
00:36:40,264 --> 00:36:42,032
And just me,
nobody else.
812
00:36:42,066 --> 00:36:47,237
Well I'm sure it's not the same
horse, but I will protect you.
813
00:36:47,271 --> 00:36:47,737
Promise?
814
00:36:47,772 --> 00:36:48,905
Mhm.
815
00:36:48,940 --> 00:36:53,310
So I think I've figured out
who the "Secret Santa" is.
816
00:36:53,344 --> 00:36:54,544
Who?
817
00:36:54,579 --> 00:36:56,980
Well technically it could be
anyone in town even you right,
818
00:36:57,014 --> 00:36:58,715
but that would
be crazy.
819
00:36:58,749 --> 00:37:00,116
Right.
820
00:37:00,151 --> 00:37:02,485
It's Brianna, the
yoga instructor.
821
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,487
She hinted at it on
the stations website.
822
00:37:04,522 --> 00:37:05,622
What did she say?
823
00:37:05,656 --> 00:37:06,723
Just hints you
know,
824
00:37:06,757 --> 00:37:09,192
"If I told you, it wouldn't
be a secret anymore,"
825
00:37:09,227 --> 00:37:09,960
that kinda
thing.
826
00:37:09,994 --> 00:37:10,694
Huh.
827
00:37:10,728 --> 00:37:12,062
She really said that?
828
00:37:12,096 --> 00:37:14,764
Anyway there's only
one way to find out.
829
00:37:17,835 --> 00:37:19,569
Brianna, hey it's Mitch.
830
00:37:20,638 --> 00:37:25,242
No, no yoga, but are
you free tomorrow?
831
00:37:25,276 --> 00:37:28,511
Well I'm wondering if you'd like
to take a carriage ride with me.
832
00:37:37,855 --> 00:37:38,822
Thank you for coming.
833
00:37:38,856 --> 00:37:40,991
Thank you.
834
00:37:41,025 --> 00:37:42,659
Wow.
835
00:37:42,693 --> 00:37:43,960
Sorry we're late.
836
00:37:43,995 --> 00:37:45,195
Brianna: You
weren't kidding.
837
00:37:45,229 --> 00:37:46,162
Nope.
838
00:37:46,197 --> 00:37:48,098
This is so lovely.
839
00:37:48,132 --> 00:37:49,833
I'm just so honored
that you wanted
840
00:37:49,867 --> 00:37:51,968
to share this with
me Mitch.
841
00:37:52,336 --> 00:37:53,536
Sure.
842
00:37:53,571 --> 00:37:56,106
Hey, Brianna, do you mind if
I talk to Mitch for a second?
843
00:37:56,140 --> 00:37:57,974
Ah no.
844
00:37:59,977 --> 00:38:03,847
So did you know that all of your
adoring fans would be here?
845
00:38:03,881 --> 00:38:05,615
Um no, well Rita did
say something
846
00:38:05,650 --> 00:38:07,584
about putting it on
the website but ah.
847
00:38:07,618 --> 00:38:09,452
Well you are "Good
Morning With Mitch."
848
00:38:09,487 --> 00:38:10,587
Mitch: Yeah, yeah.
849
00:38:10,621 --> 00:38:12,656
The small time big
time radio jock.
850
00:38:12,690 --> 00:38:15,892
I mean I used to get pretty
decent crowds at events in L.A.
851
00:38:15,926 --> 00:38:17,260
but it's a start.
852
00:38:17,295 --> 00:38:19,562
Oh and the ratings
are up so that's good.
853
00:38:19,597 --> 00:38:20,063
That's great.
854
00:38:20,097 --> 00:38:21,064
Yeah.
855
00:38:21,098 --> 00:38:24,501
Um okay well how bout we
start with some photos.
856
00:38:24,535 --> 00:38:25,435
Sure.
857
00:38:25,469 --> 00:38:26,503
Okay.
858
00:38:26,537 --> 00:38:28,471
Brie, we're gonna do some
photos for the story.
859
00:38:28,506 --> 00:38:29,706
Oh sure.
860
00:38:29,740 --> 00:38:30,607
Happy to.
861
00:38:30,641 --> 00:38:34,244
Such a cute little
story to be a part of.
862
00:38:34,278 --> 00:38:38,315
And Maggie, you're gonna
mention my studio,
863
00:38:38,349 --> 00:38:40,550
because that would be
so great, really.
864
00:38:40,584 --> 00:38:42,952
I could give you
some free lessons.
865
00:38:42,987 --> 00:38:45,021
Oh that wont be
necessary.
866
00:38:46,991 --> 00:38:47,757
Okay.
867
00:38:50,861 --> 00:38:54,264
You know we're actually
gonna be going around
868
00:38:54,298 --> 00:39:00,070
the park a couple of times, it
might be pretty time consuming
869
00:39:00,104 --> 00:39:02,872
are you sure you're
up for this Brianna?
870
00:39:02,907 --> 00:39:04,908
Of course.
871
00:39:04,975 --> 00:39:06,076
Anything for Mitch.
872
00:39:08,379 --> 00:39:11,081
Okay.
873
00:39:11,115 --> 00:39:13,216
Grace: I cannot believe
you did this.
874
00:39:13,250 --> 00:39:14,217
What?
875
00:39:14,251 --> 00:39:15,518
The picture caption.
876
00:39:15,553 --> 00:39:17,721
Of Mitch and Brianna.
877
00:39:17,755 --> 00:39:21,358
Mitch O'Grady with
unidentified female.
878
00:39:21,392 --> 00:39:24,494
Oh I can't imagine
how that happened.
879
00:39:24,528 --> 00:39:25,895
Hmm.
880
00:39:25,930 --> 00:39:28,598
Mitch wind in his hair and
fallowing to the letter
881
00:39:28,632 --> 00:39:32,502
the request of his Secret Santa
circled the park in a carriage.
882
00:39:32,536 --> 00:39:37,073
Reminiscent of his days as a
prominent Los Angles morning DJ,
883
00:39:37,108 --> 00:39:39,542
the assembled crowd
cheered him on.
884
00:39:39,577 --> 00:39:41,678
Will these mysterious
Christmas gifts
885
00:39:41,712 --> 00:39:44,681
and Harrisons indomitable
Christmas spirit be enough
886
00:39:44,715 --> 00:39:45,982
to reawaken his?
887
00:39:46,016 --> 00:39:48,251
How could he think
that it's Brianna?
888
00:39:48,285 --> 00:39:50,954
Because you haven't
told him it's you.
889
00:39:50,988 --> 00:39:52,455
She doesn't seem
like his type.
890
00:39:52,490 --> 00:39:54,023
Okay.
891
00:39:54,058 --> 00:39:56,426
You keep telling
yourself that.
892
00:39:58,396 --> 00:39:59,662
Maggie!
893
00:39:59,697 --> 00:40:02,298
I just got off the phone
with Ryan at Wrightsbridge.
894
00:40:02,333 --> 00:40:04,334
He loves the Secret
Santa stories.
895
00:40:04,368 --> 00:40:04,834
Really?
896
00:40:04,869 --> 00:40:05,935
Yeah.
897
00:40:05,970 --> 00:40:08,338
And we're getting a lot
of social media comments.
898
00:40:08,372 --> 00:40:09,172
Thanks.
899
00:40:09,206 --> 00:40:10,840
They're noticing at
Wrightsbridge.
900
00:40:10,875 --> 00:40:12,342
Keep it up.
901
00:40:12,376 --> 00:40:14,444
Mitch: 20 percent chance
of flurries this evening.
902
00:40:14,478 --> 00:40:16,112
Get the electric
blankets out folks.
903
00:40:16,147 --> 00:40:17,080
Grab a coffee...
904
00:40:20,484 --> 00:40:23,086
And that is the weather
in Harrison.
905
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,588
Well look at that the phone
lines are lighting up
906
00:40:25,623 --> 00:40:28,992
with 11 callers all who
are wondering
907
00:40:29,026 --> 00:40:30,627
who my secret
Santa is.
908
00:40:30,661 --> 00:40:32,929
But the mystery will have
to wait until tomorrow
909
00:40:32,963 --> 00:40:34,898
because we are
out of time.
910
00:40:34,932 --> 00:40:37,066
This has been "Good
Morning With Mitch."
911
00:40:37,101 --> 00:40:40,937
I'm Mitch, good morning
and good bye.
912
00:40:44,408 --> 00:40:45,909
Look at these
comments.
913
00:40:45,943 --> 00:40:48,044
This is exactly
what we needed.
914
00:40:48,078 --> 00:40:50,213
And there's
another gift.
915
00:40:50,247 --> 00:40:51,915
Well, save it for
tomorrow's show.
916
00:40:51,949 --> 00:40:54,150
I gotta meet Maggie
in ten minutes.
917
00:40:55,486 --> 00:40:57,187
You're welcome.
918
00:41:00,891 --> 00:41:01,825
Hey.
919
00:41:01,859 --> 00:41:03,159
Hey!
920
00:41:03,194 --> 00:41:04,661
Thanks for meeting me.
921
00:41:04,695 --> 00:41:07,163
I wanted to spend some time
with you that wasn't
922
00:41:07,198 --> 00:41:09,132
on the record
if that's okay?
923
00:41:09,166 --> 00:41:10,467
Are you kidding
it's great.
924
00:41:13,637 --> 00:41:15,405
So another gift came.
925
00:41:15,439 --> 00:41:16,673
Really?
926
00:41:16,707 --> 00:41:18,007
Did you look
at it?
927
00:41:18,042 --> 00:41:21,277
No, I'm saving the unveiling
for tomorrow's show.
928
00:41:21,312 --> 00:41:25,081
Oh so you're saving it
like a Christmas gift.
929
00:41:26,116 --> 00:41:28,284
You never give up,
do you?
930
00:41:28,319 --> 00:41:29,519
Maggie: Not about
Christmas.
931
00:41:29,553 --> 00:41:33,323
Well as far as I'm concerned
Christmas is fine without me.
932
00:41:35,092 --> 00:41:35,792
Wow.
933
00:41:37,261 --> 00:41:39,295
Look at that.
934
00:41:39,997 --> 00:41:41,431
What, the bike?
935
00:41:41,465 --> 00:41:42,732
When I was
a kid
936
00:41:42,766 --> 00:41:45,702
that was the only Christmas
gift I ever wanted.
937
00:41:46,303 --> 00:41:47,770
Stay right there.
938
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,206
What are you doing?
939
00:41:50,241 --> 00:41:52,008
Thanks, I'll bring
it right back.
940
00:41:57,481 --> 00:41:59,949
How old were you
when you had one?
941
00:41:59,984 --> 00:42:03,820
I-I never got one.
942
00:42:04,188 --> 00:42:05,188
I'm sorry.
943
00:42:05,222 --> 00:42:09,092
I mean, Mom tried,
but, yeah...
944
00:42:09,126 --> 00:42:10,827
We don't always get
what we want
945
00:42:10,861 --> 00:42:12,328
in life, do we?
946
00:42:14,965 --> 00:42:16,533
Come check it out.
947
00:42:20,938 --> 00:42:22,372
Okay.
948
00:42:27,077 --> 00:42:29,045
Look at that.
949
00:42:37,755 --> 00:42:40,256
It's just for me,
not for the paper.
950
00:42:40,291 --> 00:42:41,291
It's okay.
951
00:42:43,327 --> 00:42:44,627
Hop on.
952
00:42:47,932 --> 00:42:49,198
Alright.
953
00:42:54,371 --> 00:42:55,338
Oh yeah.
954
00:43:03,180 --> 00:43:05,848
Folks, I've been
getting some heat
955
00:43:05,883 --> 00:43:10,787
about not acknowledging
Christmas on my show.
956
00:43:10,821 --> 00:43:12,789
Right now, that ends.
957
00:43:12,823 --> 00:43:17,026
Yesterday I was taken down
memory lane by an old friend.
958
00:43:17,061 --> 00:43:20,763
Right to that one Christmas gift
I always wanted as a kid
959
00:43:20,798 --> 00:43:22,365
but never got.
960
00:43:22,399 --> 00:43:26,169
So, in the spirit of Christmas,
I'm gonna open up
961
00:43:26,203 --> 00:43:29,405
the phone lines so you can tell
me what gift you always wanted
962
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:30,873
but never got.
963
00:43:31,909 --> 00:43:33,843
First up, we
have Katelynn.
964
00:43:33,877 --> 00:43:36,746
Katelynn, give me
your best shot.
965
00:43:36,780 --> 00:43:38,648
I never got to
meet the D.J.
966
00:43:38,682 --> 00:43:42,085
who's been getting my
Secret Santa gifts.
967
00:43:42,119 --> 00:43:43,286
Wow, this is...
968
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,555
This is quite
a surprise.
969
00:43:45,589 --> 00:43:48,925
Thank you very much Katelynn,
for coming forward.
970
00:43:48,959 --> 00:43:53,129
You know, I have one of the
gifts you sent right here
971
00:43:53,163 --> 00:43:56,699
in my hands but
before I open it,
972
00:43:56,734 --> 00:43:59,902
why don't you tell my
listeners what it is.
973
00:43:59,937 --> 00:44:03,673
No no, that would, um,
ruin the surprise.
974
00:44:03,707 --> 00:44:04,841
Mhm.
975
00:44:04,875 --> 00:44:07,510
The surprise is you calling
in in the first place.
976
00:44:07,544 --> 00:44:11,347
Come on, tell us what amazing
and special gift you've sent?
977
00:44:11,382 --> 00:44:12,782
Um, well you know.
978
00:44:12,816 --> 00:44:13,950
it's...
979
00:44:13,984 --> 00:44:15,451
Oh no, my boss
is coming.
980
00:44:15,486 --> 00:44:16,953
I'll have to
call you back.
981
00:44:16,987 --> 00:44:17,820
Mitch: Okay.
982
00:44:17,855 --> 00:44:19,122
I look forward
to it.
983
00:44:19,156 --> 00:44:21,424
We're going to be taking
more of your calls
984
00:44:21,458 --> 00:44:24,327
after a full half-hour of
uninterrupted music.
985
00:44:24,361 --> 00:44:28,665

I just had dinner
at the diner.

00:45:32,196 --> 00:45:33,496
Ooh!
1004
00:45:33,530 --> 00:45:35,498
I shoulda warned
you about that.
1005
00:45:36,633 --> 00:45:38,401
Yeah, I wish
you had.
1006
00:45:38,435 --> 00:45:40,236
Where you coming
from?
1007
00:45:40,270 --> 00:45:43,005
Oh, I was just
out on a run.
1008
00:45:44,007 --> 00:45:45,341
Look at all these
lights!
1009
00:45:47,711 --> 00:45:49,612
It's so beautiful.
1010
00:45:52,082 --> 00:45:55,118
Didn't you say way back when
that your mom collected
1011
00:45:55,152 --> 00:45:57,019
Christmas star
ornaments?
1012
00:45:58,522 --> 00:46:01,390
You should get
one for her.
1013
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:04,727
Maggie...
1014
00:46:06,497 --> 00:46:07,997
My mom died.
1015
00:46:08,732 --> 00:46:11,367
Oh, Mitch I'm...
1016
00:46:11,401 --> 00:46:13,035
I'm so sorry.
1017
00:46:13,070 --> 00:46:14,270
Yeah.
1018
00:46:14,304 --> 00:46:16,339
When did that happen?
1019
00:46:16,373 --> 00:46:20,376
Uh, that night that
I dropped you off.
1020
00:46:22,780 --> 00:46:23,846
At Christmas?
1021
00:46:25,849 --> 00:46:27,817
That's why you didn't
come back to school.
1022
00:46:30,621 --> 00:46:32,889
It's why I didn't
do a lot of things.
1023
00:46:34,291 --> 00:46:35,057
She uh...
1024
00:46:35,092 --> 00:46:37,026
She was sick for
a long time
1025
00:46:37,060 --> 00:46:40,930
but she didn't want
to worry me.
1026
00:46:40,964 --> 00:46:44,333
So she kept
it from me.
1027
00:46:45,135 --> 00:46:48,070
No wonder you don't
celebrate Christmas.
1028
00:46:48,505 --> 00:46:53,042
For my dad and I, the holiday
doesn't mean very much.
1029
00:46:54,344 --> 00:46:57,046
Do you think that's what
your mom would want?
1030
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,816
Christmas was
really her thing,
1031
00:46:59,850 --> 00:47:02,451
now that she's gone
December twenty-fifth
1032
00:47:02,486 --> 00:47:03,920
is just another day.
1033
00:47:09,293 --> 00:47:13,196
Then why go through
with the secret Santa?
1034
00:47:13,230 --> 00:47:14,997
It's good publicity.
1035
00:47:15,032 --> 00:47:18,501
I don't feel
alone in it.
1036
00:47:18,535 --> 00:47:20,336
You mean all
your listeners?
1037
00:47:20,370 --> 00:47:20,970
No.
1038
00:47:23,207 --> 00:47:25,007
You.
1039
00:47:28,645 --> 00:47:30,813
I should go.
1040
00:47:30,848 --> 00:47:33,282
Got an early morning,
Good Morning with Mitch.
1041
00:47:33,317 --> 00:47:34,750

latest Secret Santa gift.
1050

Hang on...
1051
00:48:14,324 --> 00:48:15,124

nice try.

Alright.
1054
00:48:18,962 --> 00:48:21,264
Let me describe
it to you.
1055
00:48:21,298 --> 00:48:23,332
It's of Santa Claus.
1056
00:48:23,367 --> 00:48:26,402
He's got a big bag of
toys and ruby red eyes.
1057
00:48:26,436 --> 00:48:28,104
Let's have a
look inside.
1058
00:48:29,673 --> 00:48:31,974
Aww, look at that.
1059
00:48:32,009 --> 00:48:33,943
It's a lovely stocking.
1060
00:48:35,412 --> 00:48:37,146
Let's have a read.
1061
00:48:38,749 --> 00:48:40,249
On the third day
of Christmas,
1062
00:48:40,284 --> 00:48:42,919
your Secret Santa
gives to thee.
1063
00:48:42,953 --> 00:48:45,721
To complete your Christmas
with childlike awe,
1064
00:48:45,756 --> 00:48:48,190
take a pic with
Santa Claus.
1065
00:48:48,225 --> 00:48:54,096
Once a boy, but now a man, what
you can't do, his magic can.
1066
00:48:54,131 --> 00:48:57,433
Merry Christmas,
your Secret Santa.
1067
00:48:57,467 --> 00:49:01,203
Now I'd love to know why my
secret Santa is doing this
1068
00:49:01,238 --> 00:49:05,241
but hey, who am I to question
a direct order?
1069
00:49:05,275 --> 00:49:10,279
So Santa, if you're listening,
look out because here I come.
1070
00:49:13,583 --> 00:49:15,318
Looks like we're gonna
go see Santa.
1071
00:49:15,352 --> 00:49:16,452
Yeah, yeah.
1072
00:49:18,322 --> 00:49:21,057
You know, it's a
good question.
1073
00:49:21,091 --> 00:49:22,291
Why...
1074
00:49:22,326 --> 00:49:24,827
Why is she having him
do these things?
1075
00:49:24,861 --> 00:49:26,963
What's motivating her?
1076
00:49:26,997 --> 00:49:28,464
Are you working
that angle?
1077
00:49:28,498 --> 00:49:30,933
Maybe she likes...
1078
00:49:30,968 --> 00:49:34,270
his voice, and is trying
to get his attention.
1079
00:49:34,304 --> 00:49:36,839
C'mon Maggie,
be a reporter.
1080
00:49:36,873 --> 00:49:40,109
She could hang outside the
station and do that.
1081
00:49:40,510 --> 00:49:43,980
I want you to find out who she
is and why she's doing this.
1082
00:49:44,014 --> 00:49:45,214
And I want an
exclusive.
1083
00:49:45,248 --> 00:49:48,250
And it's not too late to bring
a date unless you want
1084
00:49:48,285 --> 00:49:50,019
to end up getting
stuck with me.
1085
00:49:54,124 --> 00:49:55,391
Okay.
1086
00:49:57,561 --> 00:49:59,762
Maggie: Are you aflutter
with excitement?
1087
00:49:59,796 --> 00:50:00,863
Not really.
1088
00:50:00,897 --> 00:50:02,565
This is a little
weird.
1089
00:50:02,599 --> 00:50:03,199
Weird?
1090
00:50:03,233 --> 00:50:04,467
Yeah.
1091
00:50:04,501 --> 00:50:07,203
You know people do this
to experience the season.
1092
00:50:07,237 --> 00:50:09,438
Yes, I know.
1093
00:50:10,574 --> 00:50:12,508
I can't help thinking
though that...
1094
00:50:12,542 --> 00:50:14,143
What?
1095
00:50:14,177 --> 00:50:16,479
I think my mom would be
a little disappointed
1096
00:50:16,513 --> 00:50:18,547
if she knew I
was just...
1097
00:50:18,582 --> 00:50:20,616
Going through
the motions?
1098
00:50:20,650 --> 00:50:23,052
Mitch: Yeah, something
like that.
1099
00:50:24,021 --> 00:50:26,188
You could enjoy
it for real?
1100
00:50:26,223 --> 00:50:28,958
Wow, you really go for
the jugular, don't you?
1101
00:50:30,027 --> 00:50:32,294
How come you don't
have a kid with you?
1102
00:50:34,331 --> 00:50:39,168
Uh, I don't need a kid because
I'm immature all by myself.
1103
00:50:47,911 --> 00:50:50,746
Hey, Mitch are you doing
anything tonight?
1104
00:50:51,081 --> 00:50:52,348
I'm supposed to
see Brianna.
1105
00:50:52,382 --> 00:50:53,849
She keeps texting
me, sorry.
1106
00:50:53,884 --> 00:50:55,684
Oh, Brianna.
1107
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:56,919
Yeah.
1108
00:50:56,953 --> 00:50:58,888
So you guys like...
1109
00:50:58,922 --> 00:51:00,189
hang out?
1110
00:51:00,223 --> 00:51:03,626
We're gonna go to this party
that I'm DJing at in the city.
1111
00:51:05,228 --> 00:51:06,695
I totally would have
invited you,
1112
00:51:06,730 --> 00:51:08,998
but I thought it would
be a good chance
1113
00:51:09,032 --> 00:51:11,500
to find out whether she's my
Secret Santa or not.
1114
00:51:11,535 --> 00:51:13,936
Oh yeah, no I
totally understand.
1115
00:51:16,973 --> 00:51:18,007
It's not by chance
1116
00:51:18,041 --> 00:51:20,776
the Wrightsbridge company
Christmas party, is it?
1117
00:51:20,811 --> 00:51:21,477
Yeah!
1118
00:51:21,511 --> 00:51:22,611
How'd you know
about that?
1119
00:51:22,646 --> 00:51:23,479
I'm uh...
1120
00:51:23,513 --> 00:51:25,114
I'm going.
1121
00:51:25,148 --> 00:51:27,783
Wrightsbridge is buying the
Gazette, so I guess technically,
1122
00:51:27,818 --> 00:51:29,351
I work for them.
1123
00:51:29,386 --> 00:51:32,188
Cool, so you'll
be there.
1124
00:51:32,222 --> 00:51:33,622
Yeah.
1125
00:51:33,657 --> 00:51:35,925
Well then I'll know two
people at the party.
1126
00:51:42,165 --> 00:51:43,799
Rita strikes again.
1127
00:51:44,701 --> 00:51:46,502
I guess that means
it's my turn.
1128
00:51:46,536 --> 00:51:47,503
I guess so.
1129
00:51:47,737 --> 00:51:48,838
No, no, no.
1130
00:51:48,872 --> 00:51:51,974
If I have to do this, you have
to do it too, come on.
1131
00:51:52,008 --> 00:51:52,475
Let's go.
1132
00:51:52,509 --> 00:51:53,576
Let's go.
1133
00:51:55,645 --> 00:51:56,846
How you doing?
1134
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,114
So, what are
we saying?
1135
00:51:59,216 --> 00:52:00,349
Christmas?
1136
00:52:00,383 --> 00:52:01,517
Christmas.
1137
00:52:01,551 --> 00:52:03,152
1, 2, 3...
1138
00:52:03,186 --> 00:52:06,789
All: Christmas!
1139
00:52:08,291 --> 00:52:09,692
You know, that actually
wasn't as bad
1140
00:52:09,726 --> 00:52:11,460
as I thought it
was gonna be.
1141
00:52:11,528 --> 00:52:14,730
Did you know that the elves were
gonna usher you to a table
1142
00:52:14,764 --> 00:52:15,898
to sign autographs?
1143
00:52:15,932 --> 00:52:18,767
No, I didn't but I used to
do that kinda stuff in L.A.
1144
00:52:18,802 --> 00:52:20,970
It was pretty fun.
1145
00:52:21,071 --> 00:52:22,705
Christmas fun?
1146
00:52:22,739 --> 00:52:23,973
Ugh, I give
up, okay!
1147
00:52:24,007 --> 00:52:25,341
It was Christmas fun.
1148
00:52:25,375 --> 00:52:26,342
Yes!
1149
00:52:26,376 --> 00:52:27,476
Yes.
1150
00:52:27,511 --> 00:52:30,346
You are so going to love
Christmas again like that guy
1151
00:52:30,380 --> 00:52:33,916
who made sure I made it
home for the holidays.
1152
00:52:33,950 --> 00:52:36,218
It wasn't a
big deal.
1153
00:52:36,253 --> 00:52:37,786
It was for me.
1154
00:52:45,896 --> 00:52:47,696
Okay.
1155
00:52:47,731 --> 00:52:48,931
Which one?
1156
00:52:48,965 --> 00:52:51,700
Since when do you care this
much about what you wear?
1157
00:52:51,735 --> 00:52:53,669
I don't.
1158
00:52:53,703 --> 00:52:55,471
I just, I really
need your help.
1159
00:52:55,505 --> 00:52:57,306
I don't even know
what I'm wearing.
1160
00:52:58,909 --> 00:53:01,210
You weren't exactly the
date I was hoping for.
1161
00:53:01,244 --> 00:53:02,745
Well, thanks.
1162
00:53:02,779 --> 00:53:04,013
How could he
ask Brianna?
1163
00:53:04,047 --> 00:53:05,314
Hmm, a cute yoga
instructor.
1164
00:53:05,348 --> 00:53:07,316
I don't know, it's
a mystery to me.
1165
00:53:07,350 --> 00:53:09,618
No, no, no, my point is,
Mitch still thinks
1166
00:53:09,653 --> 00:53:12,354
that Brianna could be
his Secret Santa.
1167
00:53:12,389 --> 00:53:13,489
She hasn't denied it.
1168
00:53:13,523 --> 00:53:14,823
She is interested.
1169
00:53:14,858 --> 00:53:16,659
It's not a huge
leap.
1170
00:53:16,693 --> 00:53:18,294
You are not helping.
1171
00:53:22,065 --> 00:53:23,432
The red?
1172
00:53:23,466 --> 00:53:24,400
Definitely.
1173
00:53:24,434 --> 00:53:26,235
Okay.
1174
00:53:41,885 --> 00:53:43,485
Hello, everyone!
1175
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,355
I'm Mitch O'Grady from
WCNQ Mitch in the Morning,
1176
00:53:46,389 --> 00:53:48,657
I hope everyone's having
a good time tonight.
1177
00:53:48,692 --> 00:53:50,192
Uh, here we are
at Wrightsbridge.
1178
00:53:50,227 --> 00:53:51,794
They decide what
news you get.
1179
00:53:51,828 --> 00:53:53,362
Who becomes famous.
1180
00:53:53,396 --> 00:53:55,097
Who doesn't become
famous.
1181
00:53:55,165 --> 00:53:57,866
Just for the record O'Grady
is spelled O, apostrophe,
1182
00:53:57,901 --> 00:53:59,301
G-R-A-D-Y.
1183
00:53:59,336 --> 00:54:01,804
I'll leave the rest of
the headline up to you.
1184
00:54:01,838 --> 00:54:05,841
Anyway, um, enjoy the
party and Merry Christmas.
1185
00:54:05,875 --> 00:54:07,109
Great party.
1186
00:54:07,143 --> 00:54:09,478
Ryan: Thanks Al, I think it's
also quite the opportunity
1187
00:54:09,512 --> 00:54:11,146
for some cross-promotion.
1188
00:54:11,181 --> 00:54:13,983
You wanna keep that story
going, Maggie, am I right?
1189
00:54:14,017 --> 00:54:15,985
If you say so.
1190
00:54:18,455 --> 00:54:19,722
Hi.
1191
00:54:19,756 --> 00:54:21,890
Hi!
1192
00:54:21,925 --> 00:54:23,792
Wow, you...
1193
00:54:23,827 --> 00:54:25,928
You look fabulous.
1194
00:54:25,962 --> 00:54:27,429
Oh, uh thanks.
1195
00:54:27,464 --> 00:54:28,764
So do you.
1196
00:54:28,798 --> 00:54:30,232
Thanks.
1197
00:54:30,267 --> 00:54:32,201
You were great.
1198
00:54:32,235 --> 00:54:33,802
I was very impressed.
1199
00:54:33,837 --> 00:54:34,770
Oh.
1200
00:54:34,804 --> 00:54:36,038
Yeah, me too.
1201
00:54:38,108 --> 00:54:41,277
Mitch, you are the Secret
Santa DJ, right?
1202
00:54:41,311 --> 00:54:43,045
Yes, yes I am.
1203
00:54:43,079 --> 00:54:44,880
It's one of my proudest
accomplishments.
1204
00:54:45,582 --> 00:54:46,682
Ryan: Brianna?
1205
00:54:46,716 --> 00:54:50,085
You must be our potential
Secret Santa, am I right?
1206
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:51,420
Well, um...
1207
00:54:51,454 --> 00:54:53,956
Come on, this is the perfect
place to admit it.
1208
00:54:53,990 --> 00:54:55,024
A beautiful Christmas party.
1209
00:54:55,058 --> 00:54:57,726
If you want we could do
the interview right here,
1210
00:54:57,761 --> 00:54:58,994
take a couple
of pictures...
1211
00:54:59,029 --> 00:55:00,529
Maggie are you
okay with that?
1212
00:55:00,563 --> 00:55:01,030
We could...
1213
00:55:01,064 --> 00:55:02,331
You should!
1214
00:55:02,365 --> 00:55:03,666
Okay.
1215
00:55:03,700 --> 00:55:06,168
You guys are really putting
me on the spot, here.
1216
00:55:07,137 --> 00:55:08,470
Hi everyone.
1217
00:55:08,505 --> 00:55:09,905
I'm Brianna.
1218
00:55:09,939 --> 00:55:13,642
I have a yoga place in Harrison
but I also do personal training
1219
00:55:13,677 --> 00:55:15,311
and private consults.
1220
00:55:15,345 --> 00:55:17,579
Mention tonight's
party and you will get
1221
00:55:17,614 --> 00:55:20,949
a twenty-five per cent
discount off any booking.
1222
00:55:21,885 --> 00:55:23,886
Well, no angle there.
1223
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:25,287
Not so fast.
1224
00:55:25,322 --> 00:55:29,224
Brianna, are you Mitch's
Secret Santa?
1225
00:55:29,259 --> 00:55:30,959
I think it's a rather
simple question,
1226
00:55:30,994 --> 00:55:32,227
I'm pretty sure
everyone here
1227
00:55:32,262 --> 00:55:35,130
doesn't want to be
left in suspense.
1228
00:55:35,165 --> 00:55:39,068
It's time for me
to confess...
1229
00:55:39,769 --> 00:55:42,604
...that I am Mitch's...
1230
00:55:42,639 --> 00:55:44,807
...not-so-Secret Santa!
1231
00:55:46,343 --> 00:55:47,910
There... I said it!
1232
00:55:47,944 --> 00:55:50,646
Uh, I don't think
that was an answer.
1233
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,147
Was that an
answer at all?
1234
00:55:52,182 --> 00:55:55,617
Well, I mean it's no
secret that I like you.
1235
00:55:55,652 --> 00:55:58,987
I have from the moment
that I heard your voice.
1236
00:56:00,857 --> 00:56:04,226
Sorry, um I'm
still confused.
1237
00:56:04,260 --> 00:56:06,228
Does that mean you
are my Secret Santa
1238
00:56:06,262 --> 00:56:07,996
or you're not my
Secret Santa?
1239
00:56:08,031 --> 00:56:10,499
Well, no.
1240
00:56:10,533 --> 00:56:14,036
but what does that
matter now?
1241
00:56:14,070 --> 00:56:18,540
And besides, I would have
sent you mistletoe, not buttons.
1242
00:56:18,575 --> 00:56:24,980
Mistletoe is technically a
parasitic plant.
1243
00:56:26,116 --> 00:56:28,917
I just said that
out loud didn't I?
1244
00:56:29,753 --> 00:56:30,519
I'm gonna...
1245
00:56:30,553 --> 00:56:31,487
...Get a drink.
1246
00:56:31,521 --> 00:56:32,554
I'll go with you.
1247
00:56:42,098 --> 00:56:43,932
Well, that was quite
an evening.
1248
00:56:43,967 --> 00:56:48,103
It was great.
1249
00:56:48,138 --> 00:56:50,272
Where's Brianna?
1250
00:56:50,306 --> 00:56:52,841
Oh, you know,
working the room.
1251
00:56:52,876 --> 00:56:54,410
Ahh.
1252
00:56:54,444 --> 00:56:58,347
Well, you'll be happy to know
that my bosses were relieved
1253
00:56:58,381 --> 00:57:00,616
that it was
not her.
1254
00:57:00,650 --> 00:57:04,153
They'd kinda like to milk
this as much as they can.
1255
00:57:04,187 --> 00:57:07,623
Although, they may have been a
little overzealous in there.
1256
00:57:07,657 --> 00:57:10,726
Nah, no, whatever
sells, right?
1257
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:11,960
That's the job.
1258
00:57:11,995 --> 00:57:16,231
Mitch, about the Secret
Santa gifts...
1259
00:57:16,266 --> 00:57:17,433
What about 'em?
1260
00:57:19,602 --> 00:57:21,236
What if they
stopped coming?
1261
00:57:24,007 --> 00:57:26,208
Well that would
be too bad.
1262
00:57:26,242 --> 00:57:27,709
I know you want
the publicity,
1263
00:57:27,744 --> 00:57:30,779
but if you just put that
aside for a moment.
1264
00:57:30,814 --> 00:57:36,051
It's not just that,
I like getting them.
1265
00:57:36,453 --> 00:57:39,955
Christmas hasn't been
so fun for me lately,
1266
00:57:39,989 --> 00:57:41,557
this has made
it fun.
1267
00:57:42,058 --> 00:57:43,358
Besides, the person
doing it
1268
00:57:43,393 --> 00:57:46,028
has been putting a lot
of work into it.
1269
00:57:46,062 --> 00:57:48,630
I'd still love to
know why.
1270
00:57:48,665 --> 00:57:51,700
Maybe she just wants to bring
Christmas back for you.
1271
00:57:51,734 --> 00:57:53,969
Then she'd be a lot like
you, wouldn't she?
1272
00:57:54,003 --> 00:57:55,804
Yes, she would.
1273
00:57:59,309 --> 00:58:02,110
Mitch you ready
to go?
1274
00:58:02,145 --> 00:58:03,745
Yeah.
1275
00:58:03,780 --> 00:58:05,147
Bye, Maggie.
1276
00:58:06,316 --> 00:58:07,483
Good night.
1277
00:58:07,517 --> 00:58:09,084
Night.
1278
00:58:15,091 --> 00:58:16,391
Let's go home.
1279
00:58:41,084 --> 00:58:41,984
Good morning, Harrison.
1280
00:58:42,018 --> 00:58:46,488
This is Mitch O'Grady
and I've got mail.
1281
00:58:46,523 --> 00:58:49,491
Yes that's right, another Secret
Santa gift has come in
1282
00:58:49,526 --> 00:58:51,994
so let's get right
to it, shall we?
1283
00:58:52,028 --> 00:58:55,297
Well, it's in the
shape of a turkey
1284
00:58:55,331 --> 00:58:58,300
and what do we
got inside?
1285
00:59:00,470 --> 00:59:03,705
Oh, looks like
a ladle.
1286
00:59:03,740 --> 00:59:05,474
Interesting.
1287
00:59:05,508 --> 00:59:07,342
Let's read it.
1288
00:59:07,377 --> 00:59:09,177
On the fourth day
of Christmas,
1289
00:59:09,212 --> 00:59:11,880
your Secret Santa
gives to thee.
1290
00:59:11,915 --> 00:59:13,949
Receiving gifts is
fine and well,
1291
00:59:13,983 --> 00:59:16,785
giving oneself
rings a bell.
1292
00:59:16,819 --> 00:59:20,055
Give an angel
wings to fly,
1293
00:59:20,089 --> 00:59:23,859
that tiny smile
will make you cry.
1294
00:59:23,893 --> 00:59:25,961
Merry Christmas,
your Secret Santa.
1295
00:59:26,863 --> 00:59:28,196
Huh.
1296
00:59:28,231 --> 00:59:31,567
Now the phone lines
are lighting up like...
1297
00:59:31,601 --> 00:59:34,403
yes, I'll say it -
a Christmas tree,
1298
00:59:34,437 --> 00:59:36,171
but I've got a
better idea.
1299
00:59:36,205 --> 00:59:40,175
I'm gonna call my
Christmas coach.
1300
00:59:43,079 --> 00:59:44,913
Hi, Mitch.
1301
00:59:44,948 --> 00:59:47,549
Maggie Chalke of the
Harrison Gazette.
1302
00:59:47,584 --> 00:59:48,917
Did you hear
the message?
1303
00:59:48,952 --> 00:59:51,520
Um, yeah, I did.
1304
00:59:51,554 --> 00:59:59,595
Okay, so turkey, giving
oneself, tiny smile.
1305
00:59:59,629 --> 01:00:01,530
Tiny smile, um...
1306
01:00:01,564 --> 01:00:02,764
A child maybe?
1307
01:00:02,799 --> 01:00:04,700
Makes sense.
1308
01:00:04,734 --> 01:00:08,837
Uh, let's see if I can put
these clues into a question.
1309
01:00:08,871 --> 01:00:16,111
How do you give of oneself with
a turkey to make a child smile?
1310
01:00:18,381 --> 01:00:20,983
I got it!
1311
01:00:21,017 --> 01:00:23,685
Volunteering at a
soup kitchen.
1312
01:00:27,757 --> 01:00:34,963
When I was a kid, my mom used
to take me every Christmas
1313
01:00:34,998 --> 01:00:37,899
to volunteer at a
soup kitchen.
1314
01:00:40,770 --> 01:00:41,470
That's nice.
1315
01:00:41,504 --> 01:00:44,506
That's really nice.
1316
01:00:46,576 --> 01:00:48,410
I like that a lot.
1317
01:00:48,444 --> 01:00:50,579
Let's do that.
1318
01:00:50,613 --> 01:00:52,047
Thank you Secret Santa.
1319
01:00:54,917 --> 01:00:58,220
You're welcome.
1320
01:01:02,925 --> 01:01:03,659
Here you go.
1321
01:01:03,693 --> 01:01:05,394
Merry Christmas.
1322
01:01:09,432 --> 01:01:11,333
Hello.
1323
01:01:11,367 --> 01:01:14,269
My mom said you're
on the radio.
1324
01:01:14,303 --> 01:01:15,337
She did?
1325
01:01:15,371 --> 01:01:17,172
Well, she's
right, I am.
1326
01:01:17,206 --> 01:01:20,375
We saw your picture in
the newspaper with Santa.
1327
01:01:20,410 --> 01:01:21,243
Really?
1328
01:01:21,277 --> 01:01:23,011
Well you see this
lady right here?
1329
01:01:23,046 --> 01:01:25,847
She wrote that story and
she's going to write more.
1330
01:01:25,882 --> 01:01:26,748
It was funny.
1331
01:01:26,783 --> 01:01:29,785
You're too big to
sit in Santa's lap.
1332
01:01:29,819 --> 01:01:32,354
I know, that's why I
stood next to him.
1333
01:01:32,388 --> 01:01:36,324
Sweetie, what did you
ask Santa for this year?
1334
01:01:36,359 --> 01:01:38,560
A job for my mom and...
1335
01:01:38,594 --> 01:01:40,796
Groceries, too.
1336
01:01:45,234 --> 01:01:48,603
Merry Christmas.
1337
01:01:48,638 --> 01:01:51,106
Merry Christmas!
1338
01:01:51,140 --> 01:01:52,607
Merry Christmas.
1339
01:01:57,180 --> 01:01:59,147
I felt like my mom
was there today.
1340
01:01:59,182 --> 01:02:00,115
Really?
1341
01:02:00,149 --> 01:02:02,384
She used to say that
giving of oneself was
1342
01:02:02,418 --> 01:02:04,386
the true spirit
of Christmas.
1343
01:02:04,420 --> 01:02:06,354
She was a pretty
smart lady.
1344
01:02:06,389 --> 01:02:08,156
Yes, she was.
1345
01:02:08,191 --> 01:02:12,094
Thank you for letting
me share this with you.
1346
01:02:12,395 --> 01:02:14,696
It was nice.
1347
01:02:14,731 --> 01:02:17,999
Christmas nice?
1348
01:02:18,034 --> 01:02:20,402
Yes, it was
Christmas nice.
1349
01:02:22,305 --> 01:02:23,939
Stand right there.
1350
01:02:23,973 --> 01:02:26,641
I wanna remember
this day.
1351
01:02:26,676 --> 01:02:27,776
You ready?
1352
01:02:27,810 --> 01:02:28,877
Here we go.
1353
01:02:32,014 --> 01:02:33,248
Ugh, is it
that bad?
1354
01:02:33,282 --> 01:02:35,350
I take terrible photos.
1355
01:02:35,384 --> 01:02:36,284
No, you're...
1356
01:02:39,188 --> 01:02:41,089
It's beautiful.
1357
01:02:41,124 --> 01:02:42,858
Here, I'll take
one of you.
1358
01:02:49,165 --> 01:02:50,432
Hey.
1359
01:02:50,466 --> 01:02:52,167
Look at that.
1360
01:02:54,704 --> 01:02:57,472
That could be her.
1361
01:02:57,507 --> 01:03:01,376
Maybe.
1362
01:03:02,545 --> 01:03:04,546
Um, we should
get going.
1363
01:03:04,580 --> 01:03:06,047
I've got an
article to write.
1364
01:03:26,435 --> 01:03:27,169
And we're back.
1365
01:03:27,203 --> 01:03:28,537
This is WCNQ...
1366
01:03:28,571 --> 01:03:29,738
"Good Morning With Mitch."
1367
01:03:29,772 --> 01:03:32,841
I'd like to take this moment
to thank you, the listeners.
1368
01:03:32,875 --> 01:03:35,844
I can't tell you what it means
to me that you've responded
1369
01:03:35,912 --> 01:03:38,113
to my request in the
way that you have.
1370
01:03:38,147 --> 01:03:40,615
I got a call from The
Harrison Food Bank today
1371
01:03:40,650 --> 01:03:44,052
and they said they've been
overwhelmed with donations.
1372
01:03:44,086 --> 01:03:48,690
So from the bottom of my rapidly
thawing Scrooge-like heart,
1373
01:03:48,724 --> 01:03:49,758
thank you.
1374
01:03:51,060 --> 01:03:53,929
And to top it all off,
I've received a new gift
1375
01:03:53,963 --> 01:03:56,431
from my Secret Santa.
1376
01:03:56,465 --> 01:03:57,833
Let's have a look.
1377
01:03:57,867 --> 01:04:01,970
It's in the shape of a beautiful
snow angel and inside we have...
1378
01:04:06,542 --> 01:04:10,178
A lovely snowflake
Christmas ornament.
1379
01:04:10,213 --> 01:04:11,613
Let's see what
it says.
1380
01:04:13,783 --> 01:04:15,483
On the fifth day
of Christmas,
1381
01:04:15,518 --> 01:04:17,786
your Secret Santa
gives to thee...
1382
01:04:17,820 --> 01:04:20,355
Maggie: Lie in the snow
and spread your arms.
1383
01:04:20,389 --> 01:04:23,525
it's bound to bring
many charms.
1384
01:04:26,429 --> 01:04:28,830
Celebrate Christmas
far and wide.
1385
01:04:28,865 --> 01:04:31,166
there's nothing
like a bobsled ride.
1386
01:04:34,170 --> 01:04:37,138
The colors of Christmas
are oh so bright,
1387
01:04:37,173 --> 01:04:40,041
but nothing beats
the black and white.
1388
01:04:40,743 --> 01:04:42,944
Sing your joy, sing
to thee...
1389
01:04:42,979 --> 01:04:45,313
How we love
the caroling!
1390
01:04:46,282 --> 01:04:49,417
Merry Christmas,
your Secret Santa.
1391
01:05:03,332 --> 01:05:05,667
Maggie Chalke.
1392
01:05:05,701 --> 01:05:06,568
Hi.
1393
01:05:08,337 --> 01:05:11,573
Well, yes, I would definitely
be interested in talking.
1394
01:05:13,509 --> 01:05:14,476
Tomorrow.
1395
01:05:14,510 --> 01:05:16,811
That soon?
1396
01:05:16,846 --> 01:05:17,946
Okay.
1397
01:05:18,447 --> 01:05:20,315
Thank you, sir.
1398
01:05:20,349 --> 01:05:21,616
Bye.
1399
01:05:27,423 --> 01:05:28,490
Everything okay?
1400
01:05:29,926 --> 01:05:30,892
Yeah.
1401
01:05:30,927 --> 01:05:32,560
Uh, great.
1402
01:05:32,595 --> 01:05:33,862
Just putting the
finishing touches
1403
01:05:33,896 --> 01:05:35,964
on the latest Christmas
gift story.
1404
01:05:35,998 --> 01:05:37,299
Great.
1405
01:05:47,877 --> 01:05:50,245
We've had your job application
for a while now.
1406
01:05:50,279 --> 01:05:51,313
Two years at least.
1407
01:05:51,347 --> 01:05:53,315
Some of my staff has
been following your
1408
01:05:53,349 --> 01:05:57,552
DJ-Secret Santa saga and
think you write pretty well.
1409
01:05:57,586 --> 01:05:58,386
I agree.
1410
01:05:59,055 --> 01:05:59,988
Thank you.
1411
01:06:00,489 --> 01:06:02,724
You have no idea what
that means to me.
1412
01:06:02,758 --> 01:06:05,360
Which is why I
brought you in here.
1413
01:06:05,394 --> 01:06:09,698
Our lead human-interest writer
went on maternity leave
1414
01:06:09,732 --> 01:06:12,901
and she's now informed
us she's not returning.
1415
01:06:13,602 --> 01:06:16,104
And you're thinking
of me?
1416
01:06:16,138 --> 01:06:18,206
I don't think I'd
ask you up here
1417
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:19,975
to tell you we weren't
hiring you.
1418
01:06:22,011 --> 01:06:23,211
I can't believe it.
1419
01:06:23,245 --> 01:06:24,346
I...
1420
01:06:25,581 --> 01:06:28,149
The Telegraph-Standard
is one of the oldest
1421
01:06:28,184 --> 01:06:31,319
and most respected
papers in the country.
1422
01:06:31,854 --> 01:06:32,854
Is that a yes?
1423
01:06:32,888 --> 01:06:35,657
Oh, yes.
1424
01:06:35,691 --> 01:06:38,259
Yes.
1425
01:06:38,294 --> 01:06:39,327
Yes.
1426
01:06:39,362 --> 01:06:41,429
I am so happy
for you.
1427
01:06:41,464 --> 01:06:43,465
Thanks.
1428
01:06:43,499 --> 01:06:45,066
What's wrong?
1429
01:06:51,774 --> 01:06:56,578
It's like fate put Mitch and
me back together
1430
01:06:57,179 --> 01:06:59,047
and now it's...
1431
01:06:59,081 --> 01:07:01,783
Taking you out of
the equation?
1432
01:07:01,817 --> 01:07:03,952
Yeah, I guess.
1433
01:07:05,855 --> 01:07:07,589
I've dreamed my whole
life about writing
1434
01:07:07,623 --> 01:07:09,958
for a paper like the
Telegraph-Standard.
1435
01:07:11,394 --> 01:07:12,861
It's...
1436
01:07:12,895 --> 01:07:14,929
An amazing Christmas gift.
1437
01:07:14,964 --> 01:07:17,599
It's what you have
always wanted.
1438
01:07:19,635 --> 01:07:23,304
I am just going to miss
seeing you everyday.
1439
01:07:23,339 --> 01:07:26,808
I am only gonna be
two hours away.
1440
01:07:26,842 --> 01:07:29,077
It's not the end
of the world.
1441
01:07:29,378 --> 01:07:30,779
When do you
start again?
1442
01:07:30,813 --> 01:07:32,847
The first of
the year.
1443
01:07:32,882 --> 01:07:35,350
I have to go to the city
right after Christmas
1444
01:07:35,384 --> 01:07:37,419
to find a place
to live.
1445
01:07:38,254 --> 01:07:40,255
When are you going
to tell Mitch?
1446
01:07:41,857 --> 01:07:43,158
I guess right away.
1447
01:07:44,326 --> 01:07:46,528
It's only fair.
1448
01:07:46,562 --> 01:07:48,296
It's only fair.
1449
01:07:56,472 --> 01:07:58,673
The Telegraph-Standard.
1450
01:07:58,707 --> 01:08:01,009
Wow, that's a
big deal.
1451
01:08:01,043 --> 01:08:03,344
Yeah, it is.
1452
01:08:04,580 --> 01:08:08,516
And I'm telling you before
I tell them at work.
1453
01:08:09,218 --> 01:08:11,986
Um, I start first
of the year.
1454
01:08:12,021 --> 01:08:13,988
I can't believe this
is happening to me.
1455
01:08:14,023 --> 01:08:14,889
That soon?
1456
01:08:16,192 --> 01:08:19,227
Yeah, they said they want to
capitalize on the momentum
1457
01:08:19,261 --> 01:08:22,330
of the Mitch and
Secret Santa story
1458
01:08:22,364 --> 01:08:24,799
when introducing me
to their readers.
1459
01:08:26,135 --> 01:08:29,471
I guess you kinda helped
make it happen.
1460
01:08:30,973 --> 01:08:32,474
Yeah, I guess.
1461
01:08:36,412 --> 01:08:37,946
It's just um...
1462
01:08:37,980 --> 01:08:40,048
What?
1463
01:08:40,082 --> 01:08:41,249
Well, I'm not
gonna lie.
1464
01:08:41,283 --> 01:08:44,252
I'm really gonna
miss you.
1465
01:08:45,054 --> 01:08:47,255
I'm really gonna
miss you too.
1466
01:08:47,289 --> 01:08:51,493
But I mean, I'm only gonna
be a couple hours away.
1467
01:08:51,527 --> 01:08:54,796
It's Chicago, there's no way I
can compete with that.
1468
01:08:55,231 --> 01:08:57,398
Do you want to
compete with that?
1469
01:09:01,437 --> 01:09:03,671
I want you to have what
you worked for,
1470
01:09:03,706 --> 01:09:05,607
what you've
dreamed about.
1471
01:09:05,741 --> 01:09:08,409
Well yeah I mean, I want
that for you, too.
1472
01:09:08,444 --> 01:09:10,545
No, no, this is
not about me.
1473
01:09:10,579 --> 01:09:11,880
For once.
1474
01:09:15,284 --> 01:09:16,551
Brianna.
1475
01:09:16,585 --> 01:09:19,888
Hmm, she get you
to do yoga yet?
1476
01:09:19,922 --> 01:09:23,424
No, no not yet but I
may have to start.
1477
01:09:24,527 --> 01:09:27,328
Now that you're leaving, who
am I gonna hang out with?
1478
01:09:28,030 --> 01:09:29,297
Right.
1479
01:09:32,268 --> 01:09:34,602
Look, I'm really
happy for you.
1480
01:09:34,637 --> 01:09:36,137
Honestly I am.
1481
01:09:36,172 --> 01:09:37,839
It's great.
1482
01:09:37,873 --> 01:09:39,140
Thanks.
1483
01:09:44,146 --> 01:09:46,114
You know, I got
things I gotta do.
1484
01:09:46,148 --> 01:09:47,282
Yeah, me too.
1485
01:09:47,316 --> 01:09:51,352
But um, let's have dinner
before you go or something.
1486
01:09:51,387 --> 01:09:53,888
Yeah, I would
love that.
1487
01:09:54,590 --> 01:09:55,990
Good.
1488
01:10:23,552 --> 01:10:25,019
On the tenth day
of Christmas,
1489
01:10:25,054 --> 01:10:27,455
your Secret Santa
gives to thee...
1490
01:10:27,489 --> 01:10:30,592
Throw away your worries,
leave behind your cares,
1491
01:10:30,626 --> 01:10:35,129
bring along a friend and
throw snowflakes in the air.
1492
01:10:35,164 --> 01:10:39,701
Merry Christmas,
your Secret Santa.
1493
01:10:39,735 --> 01:10:40,802
Snowball fight.
1494
01:10:40,836 --> 01:10:42,904
You're good.
1495
01:10:54,216 --> 01:10:55,450
Mitch?
1496
01:11:07,129 --> 01:11:09,430
Well that's me, Harrison.
1497
01:11:09,465 --> 01:11:17,639
I'm Mitch, good morning
and good bye.
1498
01:11:32,888 --> 01:11:37,825
Maggie, uh, can we meet
on your lunch break
1499
01:11:37,860 --> 01:11:41,195
for one last hot chocolate
before you go?
1500
01:11:41,230 --> 01:11:42,463
Uh, sure.
1501
01:11:42,498 --> 01:11:44,265
I'll see ya in
a couple hours.
1502
01:11:57,279 --> 01:11:59,013
What's going on?
1503
01:11:59,048 --> 01:12:00,281
It's Maggie, Rita.
1504
01:12:00,316 --> 01:12:01,015
What?
1505
01:12:01,050 --> 01:12:02,684
Maggie is my
Secret Santa.
1506
01:12:02,718 --> 01:12:04,152
No, the reporter?
1507
01:12:04,186 --> 01:12:04,552
Yes.
1508
01:12:04,586 --> 01:12:05,353
Are you sure?
1509
01:12:05,387 --> 01:12:06,954
I saw this glitter
on her jacket
1510
01:12:06,989 --> 01:12:09,957
and it was the same glitter
that I saw on the gift.
1511
01:12:09,992 --> 01:12:11,726
What glitter, what are
you talking about?
1512
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,995
I don't know how I didn't
see this before,
1513
01:12:14,029 --> 01:12:16,030
it's like she had me
dazzled or something.
1514
01:12:16,065 --> 01:12:17,799
She did it to advance
her career,
1515
01:12:17,833 --> 01:12:19,801
she got herself a job at the
Telegraph-Standard.
1516
01:12:19,835 --> 01:12:21,803
We've gotta get out
in front of this.
1517
01:12:21,837 --> 01:12:23,805
No, no, no, I need
to confront her.
1518
01:12:23,839 --> 01:12:25,807
This is my mess,
I'll clean it up.
1519
01:12:25,841 --> 01:12:26,941
Okay.
1520
01:12:26,975 --> 01:12:29,877
But let me know if I need
to do some damage control.
1521
01:12:29,912 --> 01:12:31,879
Yeah.
1522
01:12:58,173 --> 01:12:59,340
Hey.
1523
01:13:03,679 --> 01:13:05,413
I'm glad you called.
1524
01:13:07,516 --> 01:13:08,549
Are you okay?
1525
01:13:08,584 --> 01:13:09,384
No, I'm not.
1526
01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:13,554
I'm not either,
if you...
1527
01:13:13,589 --> 01:13:15,723
I know that you're
my Secret Santa.
1528
01:13:15,758 --> 01:13:17,725
Okay, Mitch, let
me explain.
1529
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:19,527
Did you realize when
you did this
1530
01:13:19,561 --> 01:13:22,029
it would get you all the way
to the Telegraph-Standard?
1531
01:13:22,064 --> 01:13:22,830
Of course not...
1532
01:13:22,865 --> 01:13:24,799
Was I just an
opportune target?
1533
01:13:24,833 --> 01:13:25,566
No.
1534
01:13:25,601 --> 01:13:26,634
No, no, no.
1535
01:13:26,668 --> 01:13:29,337
It just happened.
1536
01:13:29,371 --> 01:13:30,838
Look, when all
of this started,
1537
01:13:30,873 --> 01:13:33,107
I was just trying to
pay you back...
1538
01:13:33,142 --> 01:13:35,376
I just want you to
know that I know.
1539
01:13:35,411 --> 01:13:37,612
Mitch...
1540
01:13:53,162 --> 01:13:55,096
You just need to
talk to him.
1541
01:13:55,130 --> 01:13:57,131
Try explaining things
to him again.
1542
01:13:58,133 --> 01:13:59,467
It's too late.
1543
01:14:01,036 --> 01:14:03,571
He thinks that I used
him to further my career.
1544
01:14:05,274 --> 01:14:09,277
Christmas is supposed to be
the most wonderful time of year.
1545
01:14:09,311 --> 01:14:11,312
I just made a big
mess of it.
1546
01:14:13,415 --> 01:14:15,983
I'm so sorry.
1547
01:14:16,018 --> 01:14:17,285
It could have
worked out.
1548
01:14:19,021 --> 01:14:21,489
I had a plan.
1549
01:14:32,234 --> 01:14:35,002
I suggest you follow
it through.
1550
01:14:35,037 --> 01:14:37,438
What?
1551
01:14:37,473 --> 01:14:38,372
Carry it through.
1552
01:14:38,407 --> 01:14:41,342
Implement the rest
of the plan.
1553
01:14:41,376 --> 01:14:43,678
It can't get
any worse.
1554
01:14:45,314 --> 01:14:47,615
No...
1555
01:14:47,649 --> 01:14:48,983
It can't.
1556
01:15:08,604 --> 01:15:10,671
Is Mitch here?
1557
01:15:10,706 --> 01:15:12,573
He took a
personal day.
1558
01:15:12,608 --> 01:15:14,575
Can you give
this to him?
1559
01:15:14,610 --> 01:15:16,544
Seriously?
1560
01:15:16,578 --> 01:15:18,112
Please?
1561
01:15:20,449 --> 01:15:22,817
Thank you.
1562
01:15:23,285 --> 01:15:25,620
I get it,
by the way.
1563
01:15:26,488 --> 01:15:27,855
It was a great
story.
1564
01:15:27,890 --> 01:15:29,624
I heard it worked
out for you.
1565
01:15:29,658 --> 01:15:31,692
Too bad about
Mitch though.
1566
01:15:33,795 --> 01:15:38,466
I-I never meant
to hurt Mitch.
1567
01:15:39,535 --> 01:15:41,435
Just the opposite.
1568
01:15:41,470 --> 01:15:45,573
And I never cared about it
working out for me either.
1569
01:15:46,542 --> 01:15:48,943
These will explain
everything.
1570
01:15:49,311 --> 01:15:52,446
Can you please just make
sure he gets them?
1571
01:16:07,462 --> 01:16:11,966
Merry Christmas.
1572
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:13,434
Hello.
1573
01:16:14,870 --> 01:16:16,804
When you told me you
had an exclusive,
1574
01:16:16,838 --> 01:16:18,973
this really wasn't what
I had in mind.
1575
01:16:19,207 --> 01:16:20,675
According to what
you've written here,
1576
01:16:20,709 --> 01:16:23,945
you've broken every journalistic
rule in the book,
1577
01:16:23,979 --> 01:16:27,114
and some that haven't
even been written yet.
1578
01:16:27,149 --> 01:16:28,215
I'm sorry, Alan.
1579
01:16:28,250 --> 01:16:29,050
Are you kidding?
1580
01:16:29,084 --> 01:16:30,885
You have nothing to
be sorry about.
1581
01:16:30,919 --> 01:16:33,654
You realize this comes at a time
when subscriptions are up,
1582
01:16:33,689 --> 01:16:36,958
we're getting huge
hits on the website
1583
01:16:36,992 --> 01:16:40,628
and Twitter and advertising
revenues even turning around.
1584
01:16:40,796 --> 01:16:43,264
This article is only gonna make
things better around here.
1585
01:16:43,298 --> 01:16:45,800
It's you I'm
worried about.
1586
01:16:46,001 --> 01:16:49,236
Has the Telegraph-Standard
seen this yet?
1587
01:16:49,271 --> 01:16:55,376
I sent them a draft too, along
with my regretful resignation.
1588
01:16:56,144 --> 01:16:59,880
I figured I would try and keep
my dignity while I could.
1589
01:16:59,915 --> 01:17:01,649
Ah, Maggie.
1590
01:17:02,317 --> 01:17:04,685
It was the right
thing to do.
1591
01:17:08,423 --> 01:17:12,727
Thank you for everything that
you've done for me, Alan.
1592
01:17:13,762 --> 01:17:15,763
Is that goodbye?
1593
01:17:15,797 --> 01:17:16,697
Like you said.
1594
01:17:16,732 --> 01:17:19,634
I broke every journalistic
rule there is.
1595
01:17:19,668 --> 01:17:24,005
No, you're crazy if you think
I'd let you go after this.
1596
01:17:24,039 --> 01:17:27,008
I expect you back bright
and early after Christmas.

Yeah!
1599

Really!
1600
01:17:35,283 --> 01:17:36,617
Thank you.

Good morning, Harrison,
or should I say,
1607
01:18:17,959 --> 01:18:19,060
Merry Christmas Eve?
1608
01:18:19,094 --> 01:18:21,395
Well, it looks like the phone
lines are lighting up
1609
01:18:21,430 --> 01:18:22,396
with Christmas requests,
1610
01:18:22,431 --> 01:18:24,932
we're gonna get to a few
of those in a moment.
1611
01:18:24,966 --> 01:18:26,467
I haven't been the
biggest fan
1612
01:18:26,501 --> 01:18:29,603
of Christmas these last few
years, but that doesn't mean
1613
01:18:29,638 --> 01:18:32,273
our listeners can't get
into the spirit.
1614
01:18:32,307 --> 01:18:38,179

Hey!
1619
01:19:13,648 --> 01:19:15,649
Maggie: On the eleventh
day of Christmas,
1620
01:19:15,684 --> 01:19:18,586
your Secret Santa
gives to thee...
1621
01:19:18,620 --> 01:19:22,022
No matter the road,
no matter the ride,
1622
01:19:22,057 --> 01:19:25,826
the past becomes a present
with me at your side.
1623
01:19:25,861 --> 01:19:27,528
I'm sorry, Mitch.
1624
01:19:27,562 --> 01:19:28,696
Maggie.
1625
01:19:28,730 --> 01:19:31,599
Your not-so-secret
Santa.
1626
01:19:40,108 --> 01:19:44,879
Ten years ago I was a shy,
homesick freshman in college
1627
01:19:44,913 --> 01:19:49,884
and a blizzard stood between
me and Christmas.
1628
01:19:49,918 --> 01:19:53,654
Mitch O'Grady delivered
me home.
1629
01:19:53,688 --> 01:19:58,359
In my time of need, Mitch was
there for me for no other reason
1630
01:19:58,393 --> 01:20:01,028
than it being the
right thing to do.
1631
01:20:01,696 --> 01:20:05,699
So when I learned how Christmas
has tarnished for him,
1632
01:20:05,734 --> 01:20:08,068
I wanted to make it
shine again.
1633
01:20:08,103 --> 01:20:11,605
My plan was to send him
twelve gifts for each
1634
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:18,412
of the twelve days of Chrismas
but I fell short by one.
1635
01:20:21,249 --> 01:20:23,984
And while this article
has no rhyme,
1636
01:20:24,019 --> 01:20:28,956
or glitter it has the one
gift I never enclosed...
1637
01:20:29,791 --> 01:20:32,092
My heart.
1638
01:20:32,127 --> 01:20:34,995
It's the best
I can do.
1639
01:20:35,030 --> 01:20:39,366
Merry Christmas,
Mitch.
1640
01:20:58,587 --> 01:21:00,788
Grace: Hey!
1641
01:21:00,822 --> 01:21:02,456
Are you out
of eggnogg?
1642
01:21:11,299 --> 01:21:13,534
Mitch: Best of the twelve
gifts of Christmas, Maggie,
1643
01:21:13,568 --> 01:21:15,202
was the gift
of Christmas.
1644
01:21:15,237 --> 01:21:17,171
I thought I'd
lost it forever.
1645
01:21:17,205 --> 01:21:19,473
And for that, I will
always love you.
1646
01:21:19,507 --> 01:21:20,641
Here's to many more.
1647
01:21:20,675 --> 01:21:22,977
Mitch.
1648
01:21:37,826 --> 01:21:39,293
Where are you going?!
1649
01:21:39,327 --> 01:21:41,128
To go find him.
1650
01:21:49,504 --> 01:21:52,339
I thought you'd never
open that door.
1651
01:22:11,693 --> 01:22:13,661
You read my story.
1652
01:22:13,695 --> 01:22:16,163
Yes, I did.
1653
01:22:16,197 --> 01:22:19,199
And I got your final
Secret Santa gift.
1654
01:22:19,234 --> 01:22:22,436
Well, not quite.
1655
01:22:24,139 --> 01:22:25,239
Hang on.
1656
01:22:36,818 --> 01:22:39,253
How did you know
I'd come back?
1657
01:22:39,287 --> 01:22:42,389
I didn't.
1658
01:22:42,424 --> 01:22:48,095
But I believe in Christmas
miracles, remember?
1659
01:22:48,129 --> 01:22:54,568
I love that bike and
what it means, but...
1660
01:22:54,602 --> 01:22:56,971
I already got the Christmas
gift always wanted.
1661
01:22:58,807 --> 01:22:59,907
It's you.
