   He didn't want us to know.

The nurse!

51

a brand-new will,

      days before he died,

53

             to her?

about these caregivers taking
advantage of their patients

     What other explanation
         could there be?

59
00:02:21,408 --> 00:02:24,576
 That we were never in the will,
 and we were never going to be.

         thoughtful man.

         what if I'm not
         all the way better yet?

80
00:03:02,183 --> 00:03:03,916

   Look...

84
00:03:11,692 --> 00:03:14,960
maybe Mr. Conrad is right.

85
00:03:14,995 --> 00:03:19,164
We both got a second chance,
and we shouldn't waste it.

 I, uh, I talked to the lawyer,

92
00:03:39,286 --> 00:03:42,688
  and she said that if we want
      to contest the will,

93
00:03:42,756 --> 00:03:44,289
      that we need to prove

94
00:03:44,325 --> 00:03:49,494
       that the nurse used
 "undue influence or deception"

95
00:03:49,530 --> 00:03:50,796
        to get the money,

96
00:03:50,831 --> 00:03:52,164

December 31st.

98
00:03:54,268 --> 00:03:55,667
      How would we do that?

99
00:03:55,703 --> 00:03:59,004
  Well, I'm having her draw up
          an injunction

100
00:03:59,039 --> 00:04:01,039

     from getting paid out,

101

    to go confront this nurse

102
00:04:03,377 --> 00:04:05,277
    and tell her to back off,

103

  or we will take her to court,
        and we will win.

           your host.

          we can help.

163
00:06:25,219 --> 00:06:28,420
       who founded Bramble
    after Oregon was settled.

164

               in this house?

   I read that there's a hike

176

          entirely new.

      So let's get outside
 and have some adventures, okay?

182
00:07:15,869 --> 00:07:17,702
        What do you think
 if we go get some marshmallows

183
00:07:17,738 --> 00:07:19,538

    in the outdoor fire pit?

00:16:34,327 --> 00:16:36,794
             I was just thinking
             that, you know...

412
00:16:36,830 --> 00:16:39,998
                they must really
                depend on you

413
00:16:40,066 --> 00:16:41,132
                    and open up.

414
00:16:41,167 --> 00:16:42,600
    Is it kind of like that?

415
00:16:44,170 --> 00:16:45,770
       Mr. Knightly, I...

416
00:16:45,805 --> 00:16:47,772
             I'm Finn, please,
             and yeah, I know...

417
00:16:47,807 --> 00:16:49,340
         I'm being nosy,

418
00:16:49,409 --> 00:16:51,342
      but it's just kind of
   part of my job description,

419
00:16:51,411 --> 00:16:52,577
             kind of
    to hear people's stories

420
00:16:52,612 --> 00:16:55,113
      so I can portray them
           in my work,

421
00:16:55,148 --> 00:16:55,913
      and you do something
  I don't know anything about,

422
00:16:55,949 --> 00:16:56,881
              so...

423
00:17:01,321 --> 00:17:03,554
    It is sort of like that.

424
00:17:03,590 --> 00:17:05,156
Um...

425
00:17:05,225 --> 00:17:08,259
everyone has a story,
and...

426
00:17:08,294 --> 00:17:10,561
when people are laid up
or they're hurting,

427
00:17:10,597 --> 00:17:14,232
        and you get them
           one on one,

428
00:17:14,267 --> 00:17:16,968
          they do tend
           to open up.

429
00:17:18,104 --> 00:17:20,671
       What kind of stuff
          do they say?

430
00:17:21,775 --> 00:17:22,807
[she laughs]

431
00:17:22,842 --> 00:17:24,242
          I know. Okay.
           I heard it.

432
00:17:24,277 --> 00:17:25,643
              Um...

433
00:17:25,678 --> 00:17:28,012
       Well, I just think

434
00:17:28,081 --> 00:17:29,747
       that you seem like
       the kind of person

435
00:17:29,783 --> 00:17:33,184
    that, uh, a lot of people
     would like to talk to.

436
00:17:38,591 --> 00:17:40,291
    There's a chocolate shop
           over there,

437
00:17:40,326 --> 00:17:42,260
       and Mr. Conrad says

438
00:17:42,295 --> 00:17:43,161
             they have the best
             hot chocolate here.

439
00:17:43,196 --> 00:17:44,162
They do?

440
00:17:45,465 --> 00:17:47,565
Well, then
let's go get some!

441
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,634
Um... it was
really nice

442
00:17:49,669 --> 00:17:50,768
        talking with you.

443
00:17:50,804 --> 00:17:52,170
                        And you.

444
00:17:52,238 --> 00:17:53,771
Mr. Knightly's
not coming?

445
00:17:53,807 --> 00:17:56,074
             Oh, no.
      Call me Finn, please.

446
00:17:56,109 --> 00:17:57,909
              Um...

447
00:17:57,944 --> 00:18:00,178
       Well, I would love
        a hot chocolate,

448
00:18:00,246 --> 00:18:02,914
      if it's okay with...

449
00:18:02,949 --> 00:18:03,948
          Yeah, please!
          Come with us.

450
00:18:03,983 --> 00:18:05,650
         Just let me...

451
00:18:05,685 --> 00:18:06,651
              Okay.

452
00:18:06,686 --> 00:18:08,119
         Be right there.

453
00:18:12,992 --> 00:18:16,661

455
00:18:18,998 --> 00:18:20,832
So who's Mr. Conrad?

456
00:18:20,867 --> 00:18:22,200
 He's one of my mom's patients.

457
00:18:22,235 --> 00:18:23,201
             Scout!

458
00:18:23,236 --> 00:18:24,068
                           What?

459
00:18:24,104 --> 00:18:26,204
       He was really nice.

460
00:18:26,239 --> 00:18:28,406
      There were a few days
 when my childcare fell through,

461
00:18:28,441 --> 00:18:30,441
and he was
very understanding.

462
00:18:30,510 --> 00:18:31,709
                We played cards,

463
00:18:31,744 --> 00:18:33,211
            and he taught me
            how to bet in poker.

464
00:18:33,246 --> 00:18:35,413
 We also watched skating on TV.

465
00:18:35,448 --> 00:18:36,681
     He loved speed skating.

466
00:18:37,784 --> 00:18:39,584
        He loved skating.

467
00:18:39,652 --> 00:18:41,385
          He did, huh?

468
00:18:41,421 --> 00:18:42,887
          He wanted to teach me.

469
00:18:42,922 --> 00:18:45,089
             He taught his son
             when he was my age.

470
00:18:47,060 --> 00:18:49,894
        And he's the one
  that recommended this place?

471
00:18:49,929 --> 00:18:52,897
            He spent
his first five Christmases here,

472
00:18:52,932 --> 00:18:55,700
 and he had very fond memories.

473
00:18:55,735 --> 00:18:57,568
          He's the one
     who gave us this trip.

474
00:18:57,604 --> 00:18:58,870
               Mm!

475
00:18:58,905 --> 00:19:00,938
It was a surprise
for me too.

476
00:19:01,007 --> 00:19:03,441
     Scout has always wanted
     to learn how to skate.

477
00:19:03,510 --> 00:19:05,910
       I could teach him.

478
00:19:05,945 --> 00:19:07,712
         Oh, I'm sorry,
 that wasn't what I was saying.

479
00:19:07,747 --> 00:19:09,113
         I just... um...

480
00:19:09,182 --> 00:19:10,381
      No, no, both of you.

481
00:19:10,416 --> 00:19:11,949
Yeah, I mean,
I think I saw a rink

482
00:19:12,018 --> 00:19:13,518
               by Bramble House,

483
00:19:13,553 --> 00:19:15,953
       and I'm pretty sure
     Mable loans out skates.

484
00:19:16,022 --> 00:19:16,921
So...

485
00:19:16,956 --> 00:19:17,889
            Could we?

486
00:19:20,293 --> 00:19:22,426
         Well, if Mr...

487
00:19:22,462 --> 00:19:25,229
  if Finn has the time, then...

488
00:19:25,265 --> 00:19:28,032
                 Yes, I'd be
                 happy to. Yeah.

489
00:19:30,537 --> 00:19:31,836
                  Hey. I'm Sage.
                  I'm the owner.

490
00:19:31,871 --> 00:19:34,438
            Nice to meet you.
            You do amazing work.

491
00:19:34,507 --> 00:19:35,339
       This is delicious.

492
00:19:35,375 --> 00:19:36,874
Oh, thank you.

493
00:19:36,910 --> 00:19:39,243
         We just love it
  when families come into town.

494
00:19:39,279 --> 00:19:41,279
Oh, we're not...
no.

495
00:19:41,347 --> 00:19:42,446
He belongs to me.

496
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:43,714
               Oh!

497
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:44,682
[Finn]: Yeah,
I'm just tagging along

498
00:19:44,717 --> 00:19:46,184
    for the sugar rush, so...

499
00:19:46,219 --> 00:19:47,785
                      [laughs]
                      Well, hey,

500
00:19:47,854 --> 00:19:50,054
       while you're here,
  you have got to try a sample

501
00:19:50,089 --> 00:19:51,355
          of our famous
       chocolate truffles.

502
00:19:51,391 --> 00:19:52,690
                     They are
                     to die for.

503
00:19:52,725 --> 00:19:53,624
             Can I?

504
00:19:53,693 --> 00:19:55,059
              Yes.

505
00:19:55,094 --> 00:19:56,060
                   Come with me.

506
00:20:00,533 --> 00:20:01,365
You know,
Scout has really loved

507
00:20:01,401 --> 00:20:03,134
your<i> Everyday Sam</i> books.

508
00:20:03,203 --> 00:20:06,370
   A hero in everyday life...

509
00:20:06,406 --> 00:20:08,472
       that's a great gift
          to some kids.

510
00:20:08,541 --> 00:20:11,242
         Wow. Thank you.

511
00:20:11,277 --> 00:20:12,810
              Uh...

512
00:20:12,879 --> 00:20:15,313
          it's nothing
   like the hard work you do.

513
00:20:15,381 --> 00:20:17,982
          Your patients
     must be very grateful.

514
00:20:18,051 --> 00:20:20,484
         Do all of them
    give you gifts like this?

515
00:20:20,553 --> 00:20:23,654
           Like this?
         No. No, never.

516
00:20:23,723 --> 00:20:25,890
        Why do you think
         Mr. Conrad did?

517
00:20:25,925 --> 00:20:27,391
Well...

518
00:20:27,427 --> 00:20:29,727
      because we connected.

519
00:20:29,762 --> 00:20:33,564
        We shared things
         about our life.

520
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,733
         We were close.

521
00:20:35,768 --> 00:20:37,134
              Um...

522
00:20:37,203 --> 00:20:38,536
I don't know,

523
00:20:38,571 --> 00:20:40,404
maybe I should have
turned it down.

524
00:20:41,708 --> 00:20:42,807
      Why did you take it?

525
00:20:44,911 --> 00:20:46,877
      Honestly, because...

526
00:20:46,913 --> 00:20:50,615
   it's been a very difficult
        couple of years,

527
00:20:50,650 --> 00:20:51,749
and because
I promised him

528
00:20:51,784 --> 00:20:53,451
I would take
every chance I was given.

529
00:20:53,486 --> 00:20:54,719
   What did the family think?

530
00:20:54,754 --> 00:20:58,122
            You know,
     they never reached out.

531
00:20:58,157 --> 00:20:59,890
     I really wish they had.

532
00:20:59,926 --> 00:21:02,493
        I could tell them
     quite a lot, but, um...

533
00:21:02,562 --> 00:21:05,563
I'm not sure
they cared.

534
00:21:05,598 --> 00:21:07,265
              Well,
   you don't really know them.

535
00:21:09,669 --> 00:21:11,902
                         Do you?

536
00:21:11,938 --> 00:21:14,438
        No. You're right.
            I don't.

537
00:21:16,142 --> 00:21:17,475
         I'm sorry, I--

538
00:21:17,510 --> 00:21:18,976
 I really shouldn't have opened
           that door,

539
00:21:19,045 --> 00:21:20,044
        and that's on me.

540
00:21:20,079 --> 00:21:21,445
                         No, no.

541
00:21:21,481 --> 00:21:23,381
            I get it.
          I've been...

542
00:21:23,416 --> 00:21:25,283
           No. Sorry.

543
00:21:25,318 --> 00:21:27,051
              Um...

544
00:21:27,086 --> 00:21:28,486
            I, uh...

545
00:21:28,554 --> 00:21:31,489
            Yeah, I should go
            finish up some work.

546
00:21:31,557 --> 00:21:32,723
       I will see you back

Finn...

548
00:21:35,128 --> 00:21:36,160
       did I say something
         to offend you?

549
00:21:36,229 --> 00:21:37,962
                 No, no, no, no.
                 It's all good.

550
00:21:37,997 --> 00:21:39,597
   I just-- I should finish up
         these drawings,

551
00:21:39,632 --> 00:21:40,631
           and, uh...

552
00:21:40,667 --> 00:21:42,633

00:21:51,811 --> 00:21:53,444
          Well, her son
 stumbled out of bed last night

           ever since.

00:21:56,916 --> 00:21:58,249
         So she's a mom?

           to tell her

566
00:22:07,627 --> 00:22:09,593

   Oh. Oh, she won't like that
             at all.

       to do some errands.

599

    Do you want some company?

Has it always been
a B&B?

619
00:23:43,556 --> 00:23:44,722

623

    She single-handedly saved it
    by turning it into a B&B.

 Want to make gingerbread houses
            with us?

683
00:26:12,004 --> 00:26:13,404
[Willa]: Oh, no,
that's okay.

684
00:26:13,439 --> 00:26:14,672
We don't want
to disturb you.

685
00:26:14,707 --> 00:26:16,340
              No...

686
00:26:16,375 --> 00:26:18,409
   Actually, I would love to,

687
00:26:18,444 --> 00:26:20,010
                    but I've got
                    to warn you,

688
00:26:20,046 --> 00:26:21,712
     I'm a gingerbread house
            champion.

689
00:26:21,747 --> 00:26:22,513
         Are you really?

690
00:26:22,548 --> 00:26:23,681
                     Mm-hm. Yep.

691
00:26:23,716 --> 00:26:25,215
Oh, well,
we will see about that,

692
00:26:25,251 --> 00:26:27,918
because I think
you may have met your match.

693
00:26:27,954 --> 00:26:29,353
                     Is that so?

694
00:26:29,388 --> 00:26:32,389
    Well, game on, good sir.

695
00:26:34,026 --> 00:26:36,594
              Mom,
      isn't this one great?

696
00:26:36,629 --> 00:26:38,362
                    You guys
                    are amazing.

697
00:26:38,397 --> 00:26:39,597
                 You see, this
                 is what happens

698
00:26:39,665 --> 00:26:40,731
             when you put two
             gingerbread experts

699
00:26:40,766 --> 00:26:42,232
                    together.

700
00:26:42,268 --> 00:26:43,667
Yeah, it is.

701
00:26:43,703 --> 00:26:44,935
                 Mine, on
                 the other hand,

702
00:26:45,004 --> 00:26:46,403
                       is, um...

703
00:26:46,439 --> 00:26:47,905
                     having some
                     trouble.

704
00:26:47,940 --> 00:26:49,707
     -Can I give you a hand?
      -This is not staying.

705
00:26:49,742 --> 00:26:51,041
   -I think I see the problem.
          -Yes, please.

706
00:26:51,077 --> 00:26:53,043
             -Okay.
   -Oh, it just keeps sliding.

707
00:26:53,079 --> 00:26:56,680
A little extra icing
up on top there...

708
00:26:56,716 --> 00:26:59,216
There we go,
and then...

709
00:26:59,251 --> 00:27:00,451
just...

710
00:27:00,519 --> 00:27:01,719
       That's what I did.

711
00:27:01,754 --> 00:27:02,753
No, I know,
but you want to hold it up

712
00:27:02,788 --> 00:27:03,921
at the top,

713
00:27:03,956 --> 00:27:05,255
and hold it
until it dries.

714
00:27:05,291 --> 00:27:06,590
                Okay. Thank you.

715

                        [laughs]

716
00:27:09,028 --> 00:27:10,427
Yeah. Um...

717
00:27:12,698 --> 00:27:14,298
Sorry I left so abruptly
earlier.

718
00:27:14,367 --> 00:27:16,233
I'm the one
who invited you into town,

719
00:27:16,268 --> 00:27:17,234
     and it was...

720
00:27:17,269 --> 00:27:18,969
           No, it's...

721
00:27:19,038 --> 00:27:20,738
               It was nice.
               I'm glad we came.

722
00:27:20,773 --> 00:27:22,206
Good...

723
00:27:22,241 --> 00:27:24,274
and so you two are staying
through Christmas?

724
00:27:24,310 --> 00:27:25,776
                     New Year's,

725
00:27:25,811 --> 00:27:28,312
            and then
      it's back to reality.

726
00:27:28,381 --> 00:27:29,380
   What's reality?

727
00:27:29,415 --> 00:27:30,648
      Scout goes back to school,

728
00:27:30,716 --> 00:27:34,518
          and hopefully
    I have a new job by then

729
00:27:34,553 --> 00:27:35,419
  because money has been tight.

730
00:27:37,189 --> 00:27:38,889
            I thought
    you just finished a job.

731
00:27:38,924 --> 00:27:41,558
         Well, we've...
         had some extra expenses

732
00:27:41,594 --> 00:27:42,693
                      this year.

733
00:27:42,728 --> 00:27:43,694

                    [laughs]

I'm sorry.
I tell you what...

737
00:27:49,068 --> 00:27:50,601
why don't you ask me
anything,

738
00:27:50,636 --> 00:27:52,403
and I will answer.

739
00:27:52,438 --> 00:27:54,304
       What's the new plot
    of the<i> Everyday Sam</i> book?

740
00:27:54,373 --> 00:27:55,472
  Except that.

741
00:27:55,541 --> 00:27:56,740
Ah, I am sworn
to secrecy,

742
00:27:56,776 --> 00:27:58,976
but I'll tell you what,

743
00:27:59,045 --> 00:28:01,712
the town carriage ride
starts in an hour,

744
00:28:01,747 --> 00:28:03,981
and I actually need
to draw Sam

745
00:28:04,050 --> 00:28:05,416
near horses,

746
00:28:05,451 --> 00:28:06,817
'cause he rides a horse
in the next book,

747
00:28:06,886 --> 00:28:08,118
so I was wondering

748
00:28:08,154 --> 00:28:10,120
if you would want
another modeling gig?

749
00:28:10,156 --> 00:28:11,622
           Are you...?

750
00:28:11,657 --> 00:28:14,158
        Mom, we're going on a
        carriage ride right now!

751
00:28:14,226 --> 00:28:15,826
If it's all right.

752
00:28:17,430 --> 00:28:18,729
       I guess we're going
       on a carriage ride.

753
00:28:18,764 --> 00:28:20,764
   Excellent.

754
00:28:22,068 --> 00:28:22,966
Finish this up.

755
00:28:23,002 --> 00:28:23,967
                      Okay.

               Don't worry, Mom.
               I got this.

766
00:28:51,430 --> 00:28:53,097
He's a great kid.

768
00:28:54,667 --> 00:28:57,134
               that you've taken
               an interest.

Well, I like him.

00:31:02,595 --> 00:31:04,695
           in the library, okay?

820
00:31:04,730 --> 00:31:06,163
                   Hey, buddy...

821
00:31:06,198 --> 00:31:08,465
          are you sure
    you don't want to tell me

822
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:10,133
             what your
             Christmas wish was?

823
00:31:10,169 --> 00:31:13,370
   I want stay here longer...
     for as long as we can.

824
00:31:13,405 --> 00:31:15,672
   It is pretty great, right?

825
00:31:15,708 --> 00:31:17,374
       It's the best place
         I ever came to.

826
00:31:18,544 --> 00:31:20,544
       I love you, Scout.
           Good night.

827
00:31:20,579 --> 00:31:21,645
           Good night.

828
00:31:39,398 --> 00:31:40,597
         You look cozy.

829
00:31:42,234 --> 00:31:44,201
Sorry. I didn't mean
to startle you.

830
00:31:44,236 --> 00:31:45,936
     I was just going to...

831
00:31:46,005 --> 00:31:46,937
          do you mind?

832
00:31:47,006 --> 00:31:48,538
           Of course.

833
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,847
           Job market.
         Slim pickings.

834
00:31:56,882 --> 00:31:58,081
              Yeah.

835
00:31:58,150 --> 00:31:59,516
        Do you ever think

836
00:31:59,551 --> 00:32:01,718
        about going back
   and finishing your degree?

837
00:32:01,754 --> 00:32:04,655
    Yeah, I just don't think
     that'd be right for me.

838
00:32:04,690 --> 00:32:05,756
Right, yeah...

839
00:32:05,824 --> 00:32:07,991
I guess managing
school and work

840
00:32:08,027 --> 00:32:10,227
   would be pretty hard, huh?

841
00:32:10,262 --> 00:32:12,262
         And I guess...

842
00:32:12,331 --> 00:32:14,665
Scout's dad
isn't in the picture?

843
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:16,867
               Well, we divorced
               a few years ago,

844
00:32:16,902 --> 00:32:18,402
               and now he's a...

845
00:32:18,437 --> 00:32:21,038
   birthday and Christmas card
          kind of dad.

846
00:32:22,942 --> 00:32:26,777
         You said that you and
         your dad weren't close.

847
00:32:26,845 --> 00:32:28,412
            Was he in your life?

848
00:32:29,915 --> 00:32:31,281
Uh...

849
00:32:31,350 --> 00:32:33,884
     he was until I was 10,
           and then...

850
00:32:33,919 --> 00:32:35,719
he disappeared
two days after Christmas

851
00:32:35,754 --> 00:32:37,187
one year.

852
00:32:38,557 --> 00:32:39,790
            The end.

853
00:32:39,858 --> 00:32:42,292
  And you never saw him again?

854
00:32:43,595 --> 00:32:44,561
               No.

855
00:32:45,864 --> 00:32:47,064
         That's so sad.

856
00:32:48,801 --> 00:32:49,733
Is that
kind of what happened

857
00:32:49,768 --> 00:32:51,401
        with Scout's dad?
             He...?

858
00:32:51,437 --> 00:32:53,003
                           Um...

859
00:32:53,038 --> 00:32:54,705
      it was more gradual.

860
00:32:54,740 --> 00:32:56,340
      I'm just still trying
          to figure out

861
00:32:56,375 --> 00:32:59,009
  how to help Scout through it.

862
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,047
      If you don't mind...

863
00:33:04,083 --> 00:33:05,582
        what helped you?

864
00:33:05,617 --> 00:33:09,419
  Oh, um, my mom, my sister...
           yeah, um...

865
00:33:09,455 --> 00:33:12,422
a decent stepdad,
and, uh...

866
00:33:13,692 --> 00:33:15,092
        and my art, yeah.

867
00:33:15,127 --> 00:33:17,027
      You do what you love.

868
00:33:17,062 --> 00:33:18,095
Mm.

869
00:33:18,130 --> 00:33:19,796
    You don't love your job?

870
00:33:19,865 --> 00:33:23,100
   I love the people I've met.

871
00:33:23,135 --> 00:33:26,203
       Really, it was Mr. Conrad
       who affected me the most,

872
00:33:26,238 --> 00:33:29,373
      because he showed me
         that it's okay

873
00:33:29,408 --> 00:33:32,075
             to want a rewarding
             life for myself.

874
00:33:32,111 --> 00:33:33,110
     He said that?

875
00:33:33,145 --> 00:33:34,978
         He said so many things.

876
00:33:36,448 --> 00:33:39,616
        I think the thing
   that stuck with me the most

877
00:33:39,651 --> 00:33:43,253
   is that I'm Scout's example
         of how to live,

878
00:33:43,288 --> 00:33:45,055
        and he encouraged me
        to do a better job of it

879
00:33:45,090 --> 00:33:47,124
               than he did with
               his own children.

880
00:33:52,131 --> 00:33:54,698
Oh, look at that.

881
00:33:55,567 --> 00:33:56,566
                          Oh!

882
00:33:56,602 --> 00:33:58,935
                   It's snowing.

883
00:33:58,971 --> 00:34:00,604
It's beautiful.

884
00:34:01,740 --> 00:34:03,707
Let's go grab our coats.

885
00:34:06,645 --> 00:34:08,378
                    Can I ask...

886
00:34:08,414 --> 00:34:09,880
          why do you keep asking

887
00:34:09,915 --> 00:34:12,883
                about Mr. Conrad
                and my work?

888
00:34:12,918 --> 00:34:15,385
    Am I?

889
00:34:15,421 --> 00:34:18,922
       I just feel like you want
       to hear something bad

890
00:34:18,957 --> 00:34:20,424
          about it, or about me.

891
00:34:20,459 --> 00:34:22,259
Oh, no, no.
I...

892
00:34:22,294 --> 00:34:25,896
             I think
    I'm just all out of sorts

893
00:34:25,931 --> 00:34:28,598
      with what's going on
         in my own life.

894
00:34:28,634 --> 00:34:31,068
I really...

895
00:34:31,103 --> 00:34:34,137
wanted to say some things
to my dad,

896
00:34:34,173 --> 00:34:37,741
and I just really wish...

897
00:34:37,776 --> 00:34:41,578
yeah, it's...
and now it's too late.

898
00:34:41,613 --> 00:34:45,549
         I could listen to
         what you wanted to say.

899
00:34:45,584 --> 00:34:46,817
                   That can be
                   very healing,

900
00:34:46,885 --> 00:34:48,819
                   and I'm here.

901
00:34:50,422 --> 00:34:52,089
Wow, that's...

902
00:34:52,124 --> 00:34:55,959
        No wonder people
         open up to you,

903
00:34:55,994 --> 00:34:57,828
    tell you their secrets...

904
00:34:57,896 --> 00:35:01,164
 I mean, being there for people,
      that's what you love.

905
00:35:02,768 --> 00:35:04,901
          I don't know
      if it's that simple.

906
00:35:04,937 --> 00:35:06,169
What if it is?

907
00:35:06,238 --> 00:35:07,938
      It's yours to choose.

908
00:35:07,973 --> 00:35:09,773
    What's holding you back?

909
00:35:15,614 --> 00:35:18,281
     Um, Scout might wake up

910
00:35:18,317 --> 00:35:20,350
     and wonder where I am,

911
00:35:20,419 --> 00:35:21,618
           and you need to work.

912
00:35:21,653 --> 00:35:23,320
            I'm sorry
   if I said the wrong thing.

913
00:35:23,355 --> 00:35:24,788
                     You didn't.
                     You didn't.

914
00:35:24,823 --> 00:35:27,524
You said incredibly nice things.

915
00:35:32,131 --> 00:35:33,430
      Look, if you meant it

916
00:35:33,465 --> 00:35:36,733
      about teaching Scout
          how to skate,

917
00:35:36,768 --> 00:35:38,935
            and me...

918
00:35:38,971 --> 00:35:39,836
         I'd like that.

919
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,507
I would be happy to.

920
00:35:44,910 --> 00:35:46,109
Tomorrow morning?

921
00:35:46,145 --> 00:35:48,278
And you.

922
00:35:48,313 --> 00:35:49,179
              Okay.

923
00:35:49,248 --> 00:35:50,247
Okay.

924
00:35:50,282 --> 00:35:52,149
                    Night, Finn.

925
00:35:53,418 --> 00:35:54,918
Good night.

926
00:36:02,461 --> 00:36:03,426
  Good night.

927
00:36:03,462 --> 00:36:05,128
                          Night.

928
00:36:39,164 --> 00:36:40,530
         [loud clatter]

929
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:42,299
            [Mable]:
   Where the heck is that pan?

930
00:36:42,334 --> 00:36:43,133
           Excuse me?

931
00:36:44,636 --> 00:36:46,937
       I'm not here to help
       or anything, don't worry.

932
00:36:46,972 --> 00:36:49,506
          Um, you said
     there were ice skates,

933
00:36:49,541 --> 00:36:50,473
  so if you could just tell me
        where they are...

934
00:36:50,509 --> 00:36:51,675
                         then...

935
00:36:53,011 --> 00:36:54,811
            Of course
     you can't just tell me.

936
00:36:57,349 --> 00:36:59,182
         [Mable]: Okay,

937
00:36:59,218 --> 00:37:01,618
   if you tell me your sizes,
  then I can find them for you.

938
00:37:01,653 --> 00:37:03,520
    I can take it from here.

939
00:37:03,555 --> 00:37:04,521
                   There she is.

940
00:37:04,556 --> 00:37:05,989
                      So, Mable,

941
00:37:06,024 --> 00:37:08,358
we're still on for that catch-up
          over coffee?

942
00:37:08,393 --> 00:37:09,726
              Oh...

943
00:37:09,795 --> 00:37:11,294
           I'm sor...
            I can't.

944
00:37:11,330 --> 00:37:13,830
       I have the dishes,
        I have recycling,

945
00:37:13,865 --> 00:37:15,799
and I have a handyman
coming at 11:00.

946
00:37:15,834 --> 00:37:17,968
         Actually, Scout
    can handle the recycling,

947
00:37:18,003 --> 00:37:20,604
   and we will be done skating
            by 11:00,

948
00:37:20,639 --> 00:37:22,539
               so I can wait
               for the handyman.

949
00:37:22,608 --> 00:37:24,207
      Look, I know you like
   to do everything yourself,

950
00:37:24,276 --> 00:37:25,809
      but you have to admit

951
00:37:25,844 --> 00:37:28,612
    that when I have helped,
        it's been useful,

952
00:37:28,647 --> 00:37:30,013
    so why not let me do it?

953
00:37:30,048 --> 00:37:31,348
      I'm fine, really. I--

954
00:37:31,383 --> 00:37:32,782
                    Ms. Bramble,

955
00:37:32,818 --> 00:37:34,351
           I have had
      half a dozen patients

956
00:37:34,386 --> 00:37:36,519
         who won't admit
   they need time to recover.

957
00:37:36,555 --> 00:37:38,154
    They sound just like you.

958
00:37:38,190 --> 00:37:41,057
                    Now, I think

959
00:37:41,126 --> 00:37:42,525
       that you should go
         and have coffee

960
00:37:42,561 --> 00:37:43,860
          with the man

961
00:37:43,895 --> 00:37:45,295
    who has been coming here
          for 22 years,

962
00:37:45,330 --> 00:37:46,730
          and I'm paid
  through the end of the week,

963
00:37:46,798 --> 00:37:49,232
    so you can't throw me out
     for saying all of that.

964
00:37:50,335 --> 00:37:51,568
              Fine.

965
00:37:52,537 --> 00:37:53,470
        Fine? That's it?

966
00:37:53,505 --> 00:37:54,471
              Yes.

967
00:37:54,506 --> 00:37:55,338
                     Okay.
                     Okay, then.

968
00:37:55,374 --> 00:37:56,473
             Well, go get ready.

969
00:37:56,508 --> 00:37:58,341
    No more ordering around.

970
00:38:00,045 --> 00:38:01,244
             Quick!

971
00:38:01,313 --> 00:38:02,912
Go before
she changes her mind.

972
00:38:02,981 --> 00:38:04,014
        Willa, thank you.

973
00:38:04,049 --> 00:38:06,349
 What are Christmas wishes for?

974
00:38:10,722 --> 00:38:12,622
         Hey! Found 'em.

975
00:38:21,466 --> 00:38:22,799
                 Like night time
                 during the day.

976
00:38:22,834 --> 00:38:24,267
               Okay, here we go.

977
00:38:24,303 --> 00:38:25,702
                 Shoulders back,
                 and then relax.

978
00:38:25,771 --> 00:38:27,337
         Just sit in it.
     Now, bend those knees.

979

            Gorilla!

980
00:38:28,473 --> 00:38:29,806
                   Yeah,
                   loosen it up.

981
00:38:29,841 --> 00:38:31,007
            [laughs]

982
00:38:31,043 --> 00:38:32,275
                    What are you
                    laughing at?

983
00:38:32,311 --> 00:38:33,476
                  You're up
                  next, gorilla.

984
00:38:33,512 --> 00:38:36,046
Just teach one beginner
at a time.

985
00:38:36,114 --> 00:38:38,181
             Ah ah,
   we're all in this together.

986
00:38:38,216 --> 00:38:40,517
So, make the pizza for me.

987
00:38:40,552 --> 00:38:43,453
Then we're going to go
pizza, pizza, glide.

988
00:38:43,488 --> 00:38:45,522
French fries,
all right?

989
00:38:45,557 --> 00:38:46,523
             Step...

990
00:38:46,558 --> 00:38:47,524
                  step...

991
00:38:47,559 --> 00:38:48,658
                    glide!

992
00:38:48,694 --> 00:38:50,860
There you go. Good.
You got it.

993
00:38:50,896 --> 00:38:53,563
        Oh! Scout! Are you okay?

994
00:38:55,233 --> 00:38:56,399
        That was amazing.

995
00:38:56,468 --> 00:38:57,834
Kid's a natural.

996
00:38:57,869 --> 00:38:59,669
      Lesson one of ice skating,
      falling down.

997
00:38:59,705 --> 00:39:00,937
              Lesson number two,

998
00:39:00,972 --> 00:39:02,505
        getting back up.
      There you go, buddy.

999
00:39:02,541 --> 00:39:04,341
       All right, give me
that pizza, pizza, french fries.

1000
00:39:04,376 --> 00:39:06,309
              Push, push, glide.

1001
00:39:10,315 --> 00:39:11,481
Okay, okay.

1002
00:39:11,516 --> 00:39:13,550
        Now the fun part.
          You got this.

1003
00:39:13,618 --> 00:39:14,517
         Hold on tight.

1004
00:39:14,553 --> 00:39:15,785
  Okay.

1005
00:39:15,821 --> 00:39:17,153
     Huh? So now just push.

1006
00:39:17,189 --> 00:39:18,488
Mm-hm. Got it.

1007
00:39:18,523 --> 00:39:19,489
              You--

1008
00:39:19,524 --> 00:39:20,657
   Ooh!

1009
00:39:20,692 --> 00:39:21,858
          There you go.

1010
00:39:21,893 --> 00:39:23,026
         -I got... Whoa!
             -Whoa!

1012
00:39:23,995 --> 00:39:24,794
     Come on, you got this.

1013
00:39:25,964 --> 00:39:26,863
             [Finn]:
              Nice.

1014
00:39:26,898 --> 00:39:27,964
                Oh, there we go!

1015
00:39:27,999 --> 00:39:30,233
              Yeah!
        Nice and gentle.

1016
00:39:30,302 --> 00:39:31,234
                    This is fun!

1017
00:39:31,303 --> 00:39:32,669
             I know!
          Look at you.

1018
00:39:32,704 --> 00:39:34,704
    Olympics, here you come.

1019
00:39:34,740 --> 00:39:36,639
      There's your new job.

1020
00:39:36,675 --> 00:39:38,508
           Whoa, whoa!
           Whoa, whoa!

1021
00:39:38,543 --> 00:39:39,376
                    Oh!

1022
00:39:40,846 --> 00:39:42,011
          [both laugh]

1023
00:39:42,047 --> 00:39:43,580
      Olympics, there I go.

1024
00:39:43,648 --> 00:39:44,547
Yeah, you okay?

1025
00:39:44,583 --> 00:39:45,648
              Yes.

1026
00:39:45,684 --> 00:39:47,150
You've got
a little, uh...

1027
00:39:50,822 --> 00:39:52,689
Sorry, my hands are cold.

1028
00:39:56,528 --> 00:39:57,961
            [Scout]: Look at me!
            I'm flying!

1029

            [Willa]:
         You're amazing!

1030

                    Go, go, go!

1031
00:40:05,904 --> 00:40:08,405
                Oh, do you know
                what time it is?

1032
00:40:08,473 --> 00:40:10,673
   I promised Mable I would
   be back at the house by 11:00

1033
00:40:10,709 --> 00:40:12,475
               for the handyman.

1034
00:40:12,511 --> 00:40:14,577
  Honey, we've got to go, okay?

1035
00:40:14,646 --> 00:40:15,712
    Now?

1036
00:40:15,747 --> 00:40:17,647
                    Please, Mom,
                    can I stay?

1037
00:40:17,682 --> 00:40:18,548
Look, I'll stay with him.

1038
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:19,582
                    No...

1039
00:40:19,651 --> 00:40:20,917
        No, I'd like to.

1040
00:40:20,986 --> 00:40:22,252
    Yeah, we'll skate around
           for a bit,

1041
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:23,420
     and then I'll take him
          through town.

1042
00:40:23,488 --> 00:40:24,554
       You take some time
          for yourself.

1043
00:40:25,991 --> 00:40:28,391
A mom's vacation,
you don't get.

00:40:29,995 --> 00:40:30,927
              -Go.

             -Great.
             -Okay!

00:40:33,899 --> 00:40:34,931
                           Yeah.

00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,567
There you go.
Look at this.

1049
00:40:37,602 --> 00:40:38,935
        Look at your mom!

1052
00:41:14,773 --> 00:41:16,005
                   Hi!

1053
00:41:16,041 --> 00:41:16,906
      Hi!

1054
00:41:16,942 --> 00:41:17,841
                    Sage!

1055
00:41:17,876 --> 00:41:19,209
Thank you.

1056
00:41:20,612 --> 00:41:21,878
Where's Aunt Mable?

1057
00:41:21,913 --> 00:41:23,880
         She's in town.
    What are you doing here?

1058
00:41:23,915 --> 00:41:25,882
           She forgot
     about the cookie bake?

1059
00:41:28,119 --> 00:41:29,586
Hmm.

1060
00:41:30,755 --> 00:41:32,255
 Well, it's our annual tradition

1061
00:41:32,290 --> 00:41:34,057
         to make cookies
      for the book reading

1062
00:41:34,092 --> 00:41:35,892
on Christmas Eve.

1063
00:41:35,927 --> 00:41:37,227
It's also our tradition

1064
00:41:37,262 --> 00:41:39,596
to eat several dozen
while we make them,

1065
00:41:39,631 --> 00:41:41,431
but no Mable?

1066
00:41:41,500 --> 00:41:42,565
                   That's on me.

1067
00:41:42,601 --> 00:41:44,000
                  I sent her off

1068
00:41:44,035 --> 00:41:46,436
              to have her annual
              coffee with Ken.

1069
00:41:46,505 --> 00:41:48,771
Santa Ken, huh?

1070
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,240
                   Okay, wait...

1071
00:41:50,275 --> 00:41:51,875
         you see it too?

1072
00:41:51,910 --> 00:41:53,543
He's had a crush on my aunt
for 20 years.

1073
00:41:53,578 --> 00:41:55,345
        She has no idea?

1074
00:41:55,380 --> 00:41:57,046
I don't think Ken's
ever worked the nerve up

1075
00:41:57,082 --> 00:41:58,248
to tell her.

1076
00:41:58,283 --> 00:42:00,183
 Or maybe your aunt's too scary.

1077
00:42:00,218 --> 00:42:02,385
[laughs]
Savannah's coming over later.

1078
00:42:02,420 --> 00:42:03,520
Where's Scout?

1079
00:42:03,555 --> 00:42:05,355
                      With Finn.
                      In fact,

1080
00:42:05,390 --> 00:42:06,289
          they are probably
          at your chocolate shop

1081
00:42:06,358 --> 00:42:07,457
                      right now.

1082
00:42:07,526 --> 00:42:09,526
With Finn, huh?

1083
00:42:15,934 --> 00:42:19,068
         How do you draw
   those things in the books?

1084
00:42:19,104 --> 00:42:21,271
          How do I draw
          those things in books?

1085
00:42:21,306 --> 00:42:22,739
             Well...

1086
00:42:22,774 --> 00:42:24,274
     I learned a few secrets
         a long time ago

1087
00:42:24,309 --> 00:42:25,475
  from a very special teacher.

1088
00:42:25,544 --> 00:42:26,876
           Basically,

1089
00:42:26,912 --> 00:42:29,279
           all it is,
    is modified shapes, okay?

1090
00:42:29,314 --> 00:42:30,980
            So if I'm
          doing a face,

1091
00:42:31,049 --> 00:42:32,549
          we start off
      with, like, a nice...

1092
00:42:32,584 --> 00:42:34,784
      just rough in an oval
           like that.

1093
00:42:34,853 --> 00:42:36,386
        Two little ovals
          for the eyes,

1094
00:42:36,421 --> 00:42:38,054
    and then an open triangle
          for the nose,

1095
00:42:38,089 --> 00:42:41,257
     and then a little line
   for the mouth, and then...

1096
00:42:41,293 --> 00:42:44,260
  you kind of just go all crazy
    for the hair, like that,

1097
00:42:44,296 --> 00:42:45,428
           and then...

1098
00:42:45,463 --> 00:42:47,130
           here it is!

1099
00:42:47,198 --> 00:42:48,631
        Give it a title.

1100
00:42:49,968 --> 00:42:53,069
       Every piece of art
    has a title or a caption,

1101
00:42:53,104 --> 00:42:54,871
      so, what do you think
      it should be called?

1102
00:42:54,906 --> 00:42:55,905
 Hmm...

1103
00:42:55,941 --> 00:42:57,206
    "Scout Loves Chocolate?"

1104
00:42:57,242 --> 00:42:59,642
          Scout Loves Chocolate!

1105
00:42:59,711 --> 00:43:01,444
          Truth in art!

1106
00:43:01,479 --> 00:43:03,446
                 Sounds perfect.

1107
00:43:03,481 --> 00:43:05,315
         There you go. All done.

1108
00:43:06,785 --> 00:43:07,784
                          Whoop!

1109
00:43:07,819 --> 00:43:09,752
                   Whoa!
                   There you go.

1110
00:43:09,788 --> 00:43:10,720
For me?

1111
00:43:10,755 --> 00:43:11,621
                    You bet.

1112
00:43:11,656 --> 00:43:12,455
     Can you do another one?

1113
00:43:12,490 --> 00:43:13,656
                           Sure.

1114
00:43:13,725 --> 00:43:14,724
                What would
                you like to see?

1115
00:43:14,759 --> 00:43:16,793
          How about...
           me skating?

1116
00:43:16,828 --> 00:43:19,662
                    You skating?
                    Sounds good.

1117
00:43:19,731 --> 00:43:21,631
            Why did you want to
            learn about skating?

1118
00:43:21,666 --> 00:43:25,401
          Was it because of
          talking to Mr. Conrad?

1119
00:43:25,437 --> 00:43:27,170
Well, I've always
wanted to learn,

1120
00:43:27,205 --> 00:43:29,205
but he told me
a lot about it,

1121
00:43:29,240 --> 00:43:31,074
    and he was really smart,

1122
00:43:31,109 --> 00:43:33,109
  and he told me funny stories.

1123
00:43:33,144 --> 00:43:36,279
              Yeah?
      What kind of stories?

1124
00:43:36,314 --> 00:43:39,115
      About places he went,
        people he met...

1125
00:43:39,150 --> 00:43:41,951
  and funny things his kids did
     when they were my age.

1126
00:43:43,888 --> 00:43:45,388
        Yeah, like what?
      What kind of things?

1127
00:43:45,423 --> 00:43:47,824
He showed me
some ornaments they made...

1128
00:43:47,892 --> 00:43:50,793
but I think
Christmas made him sad.

1129
00:43:52,263 --> 00:43:53,496
            Oh yeah?

1130
00:43:53,565 --> 00:43:55,098
    Why do you think that is?
          Do you know?

1131
00:43:56,334 --> 00:43:59,002
            'Cause...
 even though they were grown up,

1132
00:43:59,070 --> 00:44:01,270
    I think he wanted to have
  another Christmas with them.

1133
00:44:06,845 --> 00:44:08,645
         [clears throat]

1134
00:44:10,649 --> 00:44:11,781
        Okay, I think...

1135
00:44:11,816 --> 00:44:14,183
            one very last piece.

1136
00:44:14,252 --> 00:44:15,585
                We've got to get
                in there.

1137
00:44:24,829 --> 00:44:26,929
[Willa]: I've just been
so focused on Scout

1138
00:44:26,965 --> 00:44:28,398
these last few years,

1139
00:44:28,433 --> 00:44:30,767
I barely even remember
what it's like

1140
00:44:30,802 --> 00:44:32,635
to have a conversation
with a man,

1141
00:44:32,671 --> 00:44:34,437
let alone date one.

1142
00:44:34,472 --> 00:44:35,672
                 Then it's time.

1143
00:44:37,442 --> 00:44:40,009
Why are we even talking
about this?

1144
00:44:40,078 --> 00:44:41,744
Nothing's happened.

1145
00:44:41,780 --> 00:44:43,646
              Except you're
              thinking about it.

1146
00:44:46,251 --> 00:44:48,751
   I had a patient who gave me
     an extraordinary gift.

1147
00:44:48,787 --> 00:44:51,788
        He challenged me
  to live the life I dream of.

1148
00:44:52,824 --> 00:44:53,823
               So?

1149
00:44:53,858 --> 00:44:55,124
The problem is,

1150
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,593
I don't remember
what my dreams are,

1151
00:44:57,629 --> 00:45:02,632
and I don't want
to just get by...

1152
00:45:02,667 --> 00:45:04,500
but what do you do

1153
00:45:04,536 --> 00:45:06,436
when you've been given
a second chance at life,

1154
00:45:06,471 --> 00:45:08,337
and you don't know
what to do with it?

1155
00:45:08,373 --> 00:45:12,308
   Well, what if you just took
            one step,

1156
00:45:12,343 --> 00:45:13,376
        and then another,

1157
00:45:13,445 --> 00:45:15,445
               and then another?

1158
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,314
              All you have to do
              is ask yourself,

1159
00:45:18,349 --> 00:45:20,183
                What's step one?

1160
00:45:25,090 --> 00:45:27,156
Okay.

1161
00:45:27,192 --> 00:45:29,492
             [Finn]:
           "Scout..."

1162
00:45:29,527 --> 00:45:30,660
            [Scout]:
      Scout Loves Skating!

                     Skating!

1164
00:45:33,264 --> 00:45:36,632
         Okay, the "Scout Loves"
         series, we'll call it.

1165
00:45:36,668 --> 00:45:39,302
                  You are my new
                  copywriter.

1166
00:45:39,337 --> 00:45:40,937
                      Done!

1167
00:45:40,972 --> 00:45:42,538
Maybe I could
put these together,

1168
00:45:42,607 --> 00:45:43,539
like a present

1169
00:45:43,608 --> 00:45:44,841
           for my mom.

1170
00:45:44,876 --> 00:45:47,810
 Your drawings and my captions.

1171
00:45:47,846 --> 00:45:50,179
I could also write
a story around them.

1172
00:45:50,215 --> 00:45:52,014
                   Hm.

1173
00:45:52,050 --> 00:45:54,383
Or...
we don't have to.

1174
00:45:54,452 --> 00:45:55,518
I could do something else.

1175
00:45:55,553 --> 00:45:56,686
                       No, no...

1176
00:45:56,721 --> 00:45:58,721
                  I'm sure she
                  would love it,

1177
00:45:58,790 --> 00:46:00,623
              and maybe someday,

1178
00:46:00,658 --> 00:46:02,658
               you'll even write
               your own book.

1179
00:46:02,694 --> 00:46:04,227
Me?
Write a book?

1180
00:46:04,295 --> 00:46:05,828
                 Why not? You've
                 read so many.

1181
00:46:05,864 --> 00:46:07,630
                I bet you'd make
                a great writer.

1182
00:46:07,665 --> 00:46:09,265
         Is that what you want
         to be when you grow up?

1183
00:46:12,771 --> 00:46:15,037
      I.. I didn't... um...

1184
00:46:17,108 --> 00:46:19,375
I was really sick
the last two years.

1185
00:46:19,444 --> 00:46:20,376
They thought I might die.

1186
00:46:22,947 --> 00:46:24,213
              S...

1187
00:46:24,282 --> 00:46:25,381
          Scout, is...

1188
00:46:25,450 --> 00:46:26,849
So everyone
stopped asking

1189
00:46:26,885 --> 00:46:29,986
       what I wanted to be
         when I grew up.

1190
00:46:30,021 --> 00:46:33,122
      I had this operation
      on my heart last May.

1191
00:46:33,158 --> 00:46:34,690
It was
a new kind of operation

1192
00:46:34,726 --> 00:46:35,858
that they didn't
have before,

1193
00:46:35,894 --> 00:46:38,561
      so I was real lucky.

1194
00:46:41,232 --> 00:46:42,665
       Yeah, that's, um...

1195
00:46:44,869 --> 00:46:46,636
          Wow, I had...

1196
00:46:47,972 --> 00:46:48,871
         That's amazing.

1197
00:46:50,708 --> 00:46:53,209
           My mom says
  we both got a second chance,

1198
00:46:53,244 --> 00:46:54,577
              so...

1199
00:46:54,646 --> 00:46:55,511
   maybe I could be a writer.

1200
00:46:57,549 --> 00:46:58,648
        [phone vibrates]

1201
00:46:58,683 --> 00:47:00,149
       All right, one sec.

1202
00:47:00,185 --> 00:47:01,117
      Maybe that's your...

1203
00:47:01,152 --> 00:47:02,118
                       Yep.

1204
00:47:02,153 --> 00:47:03,352
What is it?

1205
00:47:03,388 --> 00:47:05,188
        Oh, your mom says

1206
00:47:05,223 --> 00:47:08,891
        that she and Sage
  are making a lot of cookies.

1207
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:10,226
        Really? Let's go!

1208

              Let's go! I agree.

1209
00:47:13,998 --> 00:47:14,997
  You know,

00:47:15,033 --> 00:47:17,133
    we have a lot in common.

00:47:37,822 --> 00:47:39,088
              Yeah.

           for a sec?

1222
00:48:06,784 --> 00:48:08,184
           Of course.

1226
00:48:16,828 --> 00:48:18,194
             Is everything okay?

1227
00:48:18,263 --> 00:48:19,362
                Scout wasn't a
                problem, was he?

1228
00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:22,031
No, no, no.
He's amazing.

1229
00:48:22,100 --> 00:48:24,634
He's, uh...
he's an incredible kid.

1230
00:48:24,669 --> 00:48:26,969
                    Thanks.

1231
00:48:27,005 --> 00:48:28,704
                 So is there
                 anything wrong?

1232
00:48:30,775 --> 00:48:31,874
         He almost died?

1233
00:48:33,611 --> 00:48:35,611
      What did he tell you?

1234
00:48:35,647 --> 00:48:37,947
           He told me
    he had a heart operation,

1235
00:48:37,982 --> 00:48:40,149
    and that for two years...

1236
00:48:40,184 --> 00:48:42,952
         For two years,

1237
00:48:42,987 --> 00:48:44,153
         we weren't sure
   he was going to make it...

1238
00:48:46,991 --> 00:48:49,325
            but now,
    he's just a regular kid.

1239
00:48:51,162 --> 00:48:52,028
             That's
  what you've been dealing with

1240
00:48:52,096 --> 00:48:53,930
for the last
two years.

1241
00:48:53,965 --> 00:48:55,531
                          Mm-hm.

1242
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,667
And his dad...?

1243
00:48:57,702 --> 00:48:59,802
                Well, he doesn't
                really pitch in,

1244
00:48:59,837 --> 00:49:03,005
               so as the medical
               bills mounted,

1245
00:49:03,041 --> 00:49:07,009
           Scout and I have had
           to live week-to-week.

1246
00:49:07,045 --> 00:49:09,345
    And so this holiday is...

1247
00:49:09,380 --> 00:49:12,014
         This holiday...

1248
00:49:12,050 --> 00:49:13,716
        this is a dream,

1249
00:49:13,785 --> 00:49:15,151
 given what we've been through.

1250
00:49:15,186 --> 00:49:17,486
           And your...

1251
00:49:17,522 --> 00:49:19,989
          Mr. Conrad...

1252
00:49:20,024 --> 00:49:21,023
          he knew that.

1253
00:49:22,827 --> 00:49:24,026
    And it's more than that.

1254
00:49:25,663 --> 00:49:27,863
     He left us enough money

1255
00:49:27,899 --> 00:49:31,033
             to pay
 all of Scout's medical bills...

1256
00:49:31,069 --> 00:49:32,702
   a hundred thousand dollars.

1257
00:49:35,540 --> 00:49:37,139
       For the operation.

1258
00:49:37,175 --> 00:49:41,444
        And I don't know
   how I can ever repay that,

1259
00:49:41,479 --> 00:49:44,480
       except to make sure
  that Scout has the best life

1260
00:49:44,515 --> 00:49:46,349
                he possibly can,

1261
00:49:46,384 --> 00:49:47,616
     and to take this chance

1262
00:49:47,652 --> 00:49:50,653
             to find
 what I'm meant to be doing too.

1263
00:49:50,688 --> 00:49:52,054
          That's, uh...

1264
00:49:54,959 --> 00:49:56,892
   That's an incredible gift.

1265
00:49:56,961 --> 00:49:59,829
           I just wish
    I could tell his children

1266
00:49:59,864 --> 00:50:01,731
        what he's done...

1267
00:50:01,799 --> 00:50:04,300
  you know, how much he changed
     at the end of his life.

1268
00:50:04,335 --> 00:50:07,670
            When he was younger,
            he worked hard,

1269
00:50:07,705 --> 00:50:09,672
   but he felt he was a constant
   source of disappointment

1270
00:50:09,707 --> 00:50:11,140
                   to his family

1271
00:50:11,175 --> 00:50:12,675
      and, for some reason,

1272
00:50:12,710 --> 00:50:15,177
thought they would be better off
          without him,

1273
00:50:15,213 --> 00:50:16,545
                that if he left,

1274
00:50:16,581 --> 00:50:19,015
        his wife could find
        someone else to love her

1275
00:50:19,050 --> 00:50:20,416
       and raise his kids

1276
00:50:20,485 --> 00:50:22,318
       the way he thought
         they deserved.

1277
00:50:23,855 --> 00:50:25,021
  But then, in the end, he...?

1278
00:50:25,056 --> 00:50:26,589
  Well, at the end of his life,

1279
00:50:26,657 --> 00:50:28,357
   he felt it was the biggest
     mistake he'd ever made,

1280
00:50:28,393 --> 00:50:31,761
             but it was too late
             to change it.

1281
00:50:31,829 --> 00:50:32,995
            Leaving his children

1282
00:50:33,031 --> 00:50:35,364
          was the biggest regret
          of his life.

1283
00:50:42,407 --> 00:50:45,408
          Mr. Conrad...

1284
00:50:46,577 --> 00:50:48,244
          his family...

1285
00:50:50,748 --> 00:50:54,683
        they are so lucky
  that you were there for him.

1286
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,853
Anybody would be lucky
to have you in their life,

1287
00:50:57,889 --> 00:50:58,687
       and it's no wonder.

1288
00:51:00,858 --> 00:51:02,391
It's no wonder
he wanted you to thrive,

1289
00:51:02,427 --> 00:51:04,060
    to have a second chance.

1290
00:51:04,095 --> 00:51:05,428
            Willa...

1291
00:51:09,333 --> 00:51:10,866
  I need to tell you something,

1292
00:51:10,902 --> 00:51:14,370
   and I should have told you
       when we first met.

1293
00:51:16,441 --> 00:51:19,875
   [Mable]: What is happening
          in my house?

1294
00:51:21,345 --> 00:51:22,411
What is happening?

1295
00:51:22,447 --> 00:51:23,412
Can... Maybe we should...

1296
00:51:23,448 --> 00:51:24,447
                      Okay.

1297
00:51:24,515 --> 00:51:26,015
Yeah, okay...

1298
00:51:27,418 --> 00:51:29,151
                     Okay.

1299
00:51:29,187 --> 00:51:30,152
                     I know this
                     looks bad.

1300
00:51:30,188 --> 00:51:32,755
You're cooking
in my kitchen?

1301
00:51:32,824 --> 00:51:34,323
Sage, you're
my own niece!

1302
00:51:34,358 --> 00:51:35,658
How could you?

1303
00:51:35,693 --> 00:51:37,660
           Oh, to heck
      with all that, Mable.

1304
00:51:39,197 --> 00:51:40,563
    Did you have an accident?
     Did you hurt your foot?

1305
00:51:40,598 --> 00:51:42,164
              Yes.

1306
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:43,866
      Right, so can you do
    all of this by yourself?

1307
00:51:44,902 --> 00:51:46,602
               No.

1308
00:51:46,671 --> 00:51:48,604
       [Ken]: Then either
you have to let people help you,

1309
00:51:48,673 --> 00:51:49,672
          or nothing's
       going to get done.

1310
00:51:49,707 --> 00:51:51,040
          Your choice.

1311
00:51:53,044 --> 00:51:54,844
  Are you really that stubborn

1312
00:51:54,879 --> 00:51:56,212
   that you'd rather not have
  a full Christmas around here?

1313
00:51:56,247 --> 00:51:57,213
              Yes.

1314
00:51:59,684 --> 00:52:00,449
             [Ken]:
   These people care for you.

1315
00:52:02,053 --> 00:52:04,887
       If you're incapable
      of seeing that, I...

1316
00:52:04,922 --> 00:52:06,455
           I'm sorry.

1317
00:52:11,863 --> 00:52:13,129
           Excuse me.

1318
00:52:18,369 --> 00:52:20,202
                Wait.

1319
00:52:20,238 --> 00:52:22,104
I'm going for a drive.

1320
00:52:22,173 --> 00:52:23,706
               Oh, you're angry.

1321
00:52:23,741 --> 00:52:25,841
No, I'm not.

1322
00:52:25,877 --> 00:52:27,176
I just don't understand
people

1323
00:52:27,211 --> 00:52:29,345
who can't see
what's right in front of them.

1324
00:52:40,124 --> 00:52:42,525
                         [sighs]

1325
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:46,295
   So I was being a tyrant...

1326
00:52:46,364 --> 00:52:48,130
         and I'm sorry.

1327
00:52:48,199 --> 00:52:49,398
      It's just this place

1328
00:52:49,433 --> 00:52:50,399
        should be so much
      Christmas-ier by now,

1329
00:52:50,434 --> 00:52:51,867
     and I just didn't know

1330
00:52:51,903 --> 00:52:54,436
     how to accomplish that
        on my own, so...

1331
00:52:54,472 --> 00:52:56,972
      if you amazing people
would like to help me with that,

1332
00:52:57,041 --> 00:53:00,276
      I would welcome that.

1333
00:53:01,646 --> 00:53:03,279
                 What can we do?

1334
00:53:03,314 --> 00:53:06,615
         Oh, thank you.

Oh, my goodness!

You remembered!

00:54:35,339 --> 00:54:37,806
      Oh, it's incredible!

1357

No,
this is what we did,

00:54:46,951 --> 00:54:49,118
    and hats off to your aunt
         for letting us.

1363
00:54:49,153 --> 00:54:50,486
                Hats off to you.

1364
00:54:50,521 --> 00:54:52,354
      She's been different
         since you came,

1365
00:54:52,423 --> 00:54:55,758
                and someone else
                has changed too.

1366
00:54:56,994 --> 00:54:58,294
          [Sage]: He's wonderful
          with Scout.

1367
00:55:00,998 --> 00:55:02,498
       You two seem pretty cozy.

1368
00:55:02,566 --> 00:55:04,433
              You still thinking
              about all that?

1369
00:55:06,070 --> 00:55:07,236
My head knows
it's crazy,

1370
00:55:07,271 --> 00:55:10,739
but I'm trying to do
what I promised.

1371
00:55:10,775 --> 00:55:12,941
You know,
follow my heart,

1372
00:55:12,977 --> 00:55:14,910
embrace my life,

1373
00:55:14,945 --> 00:55:16,312
take a chance.

1374
00:55:16,347 --> 00:55:18,180
                   There you go.

1375
00:55:19,917 --> 00:55:21,417
      I went a little crazy

1376
00:55:21,452 --> 00:55:23,752
 and bought all sorts of treats
         for all of you.

1377
00:55:23,788 --> 00:55:25,354
          [they laugh]

1378
00:55:29,694 --> 00:55:31,660
               Oh!

1379
00:55:31,696 --> 00:55:34,330
       Just look at that.

1380
00:55:34,365 --> 00:55:36,832
          Now it looks
         like Christmas.

1381
00:55:41,105 --> 00:55:42,705
           Thank you.

1382
00:55:47,311 --> 00:55:48,477
               [Molly]:
               <i> So the $100,000</i>

1383
00:55:48,512 --> 00:55:49,211
            <i> was to pay</i>
            <i> for medical bills?</i>

1384
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:50,813
                 <i> Seriously?</i>

1385
00:55:50,848 --> 00:55:52,581
    She's a health care aide
           with a kid

1386
00:55:52,616 --> 00:55:54,516
    and a mountain of bills,
   just struggling to get by.

1387
00:55:54,585 --> 00:55:55,784
    <i> Dad gave her a way out.</i>

1388
00:55:55,820 --> 00:55:56,952
          Or she's lying to you.

1389
00:55:56,987 --> 00:55:58,821
         It was the son
          that told me.

1390
00:55:58,856 --> 00:56:00,189
          Wait, sorry.

1391
00:56:00,257 --> 00:56:02,424
      So now you're bonding
          with her son?

1392
00:56:02,460 --> 00:56:04,960
       Mol, just listen...

1393
00:56:04,995 --> 00:56:07,796
         <i> Look, I don't know</i>
         <i> what's going on there,</i>

1394
00:56:07,832 --> 00:56:08,997
       but it sounds to me
like she's got you turned around

1395
00:56:09,033 --> 00:56:10,199
        like she did Dad.

1396
00:56:10,267 --> 00:56:12,835
    It's not what you think.

1397
00:56:12,870 --> 00:56:14,169
      Dad opened up to her.

1398
00:56:14,205 --> 00:56:15,838
<i>He told her</i>

1399
00:56:15,873 --> 00:56:17,506
<i>that he regretted so much</i>
<i>what he'd done to us,</i>

1400
00:56:17,541 --> 00:56:19,708
      and in his own mind,

1401
00:56:19,777 --> 00:56:21,710
     he thought at the time
     that he was helping Mom

1402
00:56:21,779 --> 00:56:23,779
    so she could get married

1403
00:56:23,814 --> 00:56:25,314
<i>so that</i>

1404
00:56:25,349 --> 00:56:26,515
<i>there would be someone there</i>
<i>for her, for us.</i>

1405
00:56:26,550 --> 00:56:29,551
       Or she's on to you,

1406
00:56:29,620 --> 00:56:30,853
      and she knows exactly
           what to say

1407
00:56:30,888 --> 00:56:31,820
      to push your buttons.

1408
00:56:33,624 --> 00:56:34,990
      She's not like that,
           all right?

1409
00:56:35,025 --> 00:56:37,526
       And this was never
        about the money,

1410
00:56:37,561 --> 00:56:40,329
   money which we don't need,
           by the way.

1411
00:56:42,133 --> 00:56:44,767
         Now, it's time
     to let all of this go.

1412
00:56:48,172 --> 00:56:50,706
       I'm not showing her
         the injunction.

1413
00:56:50,775 --> 00:56:52,808
   I'm not going to pursue it,
     and neither should you.

1414
00:56:52,843 --> 00:56:55,010
<i>So, what, that's it?</i>

1415
00:56:55,045 --> 00:56:56,445
  You just come back to Seattle
          for Christmas

1416
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:57,346
      and forget about it?

1417
00:56:59,784 --> 00:57:01,350
     I'm going to stay here
         for Christmas.

1418
00:57:01,385 --> 00:57:02,885
   I'll see you at New Year's
           in Seattle.

1419
00:57:02,953 --> 00:57:03,952
          We'll, uh...

1420
00:57:03,988 --> 00:57:06,021
      raise a glass for Dad

1421
00:57:06,056 --> 00:57:09,992
   and think of the good times
      we did have with him.

1422
00:57:10,027 --> 00:57:11,293
           All right?

1423
00:57:11,328 --> 00:57:13,395
   You have a good Christmas.

1424
00:57:13,464 --> 00:57:14,496
<i>I'll call you.</i>

1425
00:57:14,532 --> 00:57:15,464
          Finn, you...

1426
00:57:28,913 --> 00:57:30,879
       Okay, you can stop.

1427
00:57:30,915 --> 00:57:32,047
       You've done enough.

1428
00:57:32,082 --> 00:57:33,849
    Tomorrow's Christmas Eve.

1429
00:57:33,884 --> 00:57:35,150
   I want it all to be perfect
            for you.

1430
00:57:36,587 --> 00:57:39,555
        You know, you act
    like you like doing this.

1431
00:57:39,623 --> 00:57:41,223
              I do.
    Is that completely crazy?

1432
00:57:41,292 --> 00:57:42,858
              Yes.

1433
00:57:42,893 --> 00:57:43,892
            [laughs]

1434
00:57:43,961 --> 00:57:44,960
Now...

1435
00:57:44,995 --> 00:57:46,361
come on.

1436
00:57:46,397 --> 00:57:47,496
Come have some of this.

1437
00:57:48,566 --> 00:57:50,466
     No, I really shouldn't.

1438
00:57:50,501 --> 00:57:52,568
      Three different kinds
          of chocolate.

1439
00:57:52,636 --> 00:57:54,303
      Okay, if you insist.

1440
00:57:59,577 --> 00:58:01,076
Oh, Willa!

1441
00:58:01,145 --> 00:58:02,010
        It's a sickness.
             I know.

1442
00:58:02,046 --> 00:58:03,679
              Yeah.

1443
00:58:05,483 --> 00:58:06,682
                      Thank you.

1444
00:58:08,185 --> 00:58:09,985
                I don't know
                how you do this.

1445
00:58:10,020 --> 00:58:11,753
Oh, it's just
an old family recipe.

1446
00:58:11,822 --> 00:58:14,189
    I mean running this place
        single-handedly,

1447
00:58:14,225 --> 00:58:16,158
           even before
      you broke your ankle.

1448
00:58:16,193 --> 00:58:18,393
     How do you do it alone?

1449
00:58:18,429 --> 00:58:19,361
    Can I tell you a secret?

1450
00:58:19,396 --> 00:58:21,196
                          Mm-hm.

1451
00:58:21,232 --> 00:58:24,099
     I didn't break my ankle
        horseback riding.

1452
00:58:24,168 --> 00:58:25,501
               No?

1453
00:58:25,536 --> 00:58:27,870
           That's just
     what I've been saying.

1454
00:58:27,905 --> 00:58:29,271
               Mm.

1455
00:58:29,340 --> 00:58:30,372
I did it
walking down the stairs,

1456
00:58:30,407 --> 00:58:31,840
        holding laundry,

1457
00:58:31,876 --> 00:58:35,878
       while on the phone
    with a prospective guest.

1458
00:58:35,913 --> 00:58:37,179
   So you know it's too much.

1459
00:58:37,214 --> 00:58:39,548
              Yeah.

1460
00:58:39,583 --> 00:58:41,850
       I just didn't know
   what to do about it, or...

1461
00:58:41,886 --> 00:58:43,752
      how to ask for help.

1462
00:58:45,890 --> 00:58:47,322
         Ken was right.

1463
00:58:49,493 --> 00:58:51,493
         Okay, can I be
    completely inappropriate?

1464
00:58:51,529 --> 00:58:52,594
Mm-hm.

1465
00:58:52,663 --> 00:58:53,595
         Ken likes you.

1466
00:58:53,664 --> 00:58:55,564
           Oh, I know.

1467
00:58:55,599 --> 00:58:56,665
  I've known since high school.

1468
00:58:56,700 --> 00:58:59,001
   Well, do you like him back?

1469
00:58:59,036 --> 00:59:01,236
              I do.

1470
00:59:01,272 --> 00:59:02,271
    Then what's the problem?

1471
00:59:02,339 --> 00:59:04,673
What if he uproots
his life,

1472
00:59:04,708 --> 00:59:06,542
and then
it doesn't work out?

1473
00:59:06,577 --> 00:59:08,210
No.

1474
00:59:08,245 --> 00:59:09,912
I'd rather just bury myself
in so much work

1475
00:59:09,947 --> 00:59:12,948
that I couldn't possibly
be open to a relationship,

1476
00:59:13,017 --> 00:59:14,683
and that way,
it won't happen,

1477
00:59:14,718 --> 00:59:16,919
and no one gets hurt.

1478
00:59:18,522 --> 00:59:22,858
        Or bury yourself
    in caring for your child.

1479
00:59:24,695 --> 00:59:26,361
     Scout's been very sick
       the last two years.

1480
00:59:26,397 --> 00:59:28,330
                He's better now,

1481
00:59:28,365 --> 00:59:31,433
         but I think I've
         used it as an excuse...

1482
00:59:31,502 --> 00:59:33,268
     To not join the world.

1483
00:59:33,337 --> 00:59:34,269
               And the truth is,

1484
00:59:34,338 --> 00:59:35,771
      I'm starting to feel

1485
00:59:35,839 --> 00:59:38,707
 that there is a bigger picture
             for me,

1486
00:59:38,742 --> 00:59:41,543
      and I just don't know
        how to get at it.

1487
00:59:41,579 --> 00:59:42,711
            You know,

1488
00:59:42,746 --> 00:59:44,079
    maybe you're just looking
             at this

1489
00:59:44,114 --> 00:59:45,547
         the wrong way.

1490
00:59:45,583 --> 00:59:47,382
You're not a nurse.

1491
00:59:47,418 --> 00:59:49,117
You're a caretaker.

1492
00:59:49,186 --> 00:59:51,286
        I mean, just look
  what you've done around here.

1493
00:59:51,355 --> 00:59:53,121
     It's not a job to you.

1494
00:59:53,190 --> 00:59:55,524
It's who you are.

1495
00:59:55,559 --> 00:59:58,894
             You...
       you're a caretaker.

1496
00:59:58,929 --> 01:00:00,395
              Okay?

1497
01:00:00,431 --> 01:00:01,797
              Okay.

1498
01:00:01,865 --> 01:00:03,532
 You want to have a cup of tea?

01:05:18,382 --> 01:05:19,314
           to find out
      if she stole from us?

1636
01:05:19,349 --> 01:05:21,716
That I've been lying
to her?

1637
01:05:21,752 --> 01:05:24,252
       She trusts me now.

1638
01:05:24,321 --> 01:05:25,687
     She's opened up to me.
             I've...

1639
01:05:27,524 --> 01:05:28,657
     I've opened up to her,
             and...

1640
01:05:30,861 --> 01:05:32,994
   Except for the fact, Finn,

1641
01:05:33,030 --> 01:05:34,896
     that you've been lying
        about who you are

1642
01:05:34,932 --> 01:05:36,331
        this whole time.

1643
01:05:37,734 --> 01:05:39,234
                         Look...

1644
01:05:39,303 --> 01:05:41,169
                 we have a week,

1645
01:05:41,204 --> 01:05:44,506
 and then we will never be able
     to contest this again.

1646
01:05:44,541 --> 01:05:47,008
       If you let this go,
       you will regret it.

1647
01:05:51,915 --> 01:05:52,914
           Okay, fine,

1648
01:05:52,983 --> 01:05:55,150
      but just let me do it

1649
01:05:55,185 --> 01:05:57,652
 in my own way, on my own time,
           all right?

1650
01:05:57,688 --> 01:05:59,654
            And then
  we will both get our answers.

1651
01:05:59,690 --> 01:06:02,824
             What are we buying?

1652
01:06:02,859 --> 01:06:04,759
          Well, we made
 so many new friends this week,

1653
01:06:04,828 --> 01:06:06,728
       I didn't even think
         to pack gifts,

1654
01:06:06,763 --> 01:06:11,900
 so something for Mable and Sage
     and Savannah and Finn.

1655
01:06:11,935 --> 01:06:13,668
                        And Ken.

1656
01:06:13,704 --> 01:06:16,204
    What? We're going to get
      something for Santa?

1657
01:06:16,239 --> 01:06:18,006
               I bet no one else
               thinks of that.

1658
01:06:18,041 --> 01:06:19,507
      I think you're right.

1659
01:06:19,543 --> 01:06:20,709
          So, which one
    should we work on first?

1660
01:06:20,744 --> 01:06:22,243
Finn's!

1661
01:06:22,279 --> 01:06:24,179
  Okay, then let's do Mable's.

1662
01:06:24,214 --> 01:06:25,780
And then Ken's
and Sage's.

1663
01:06:25,849 --> 01:06:27,382
           Hey there!

1664
01:06:27,417 --> 01:06:29,584
          I didn't, uh,
 see you back at Bramble House.

1665
01:06:29,619 --> 01:06:30,819
                 Well, I figured

1666
01:06:30,854 --> 01:06:32,220
               you would be busy
               with your sister.

1667
01:06:32,255 --> 01:06:34,990
  Oh. Yeah, she's just resting
        back in her room.

1668
01:06:35,025 --> 01:06:35,890
            I thought
    you were going to Seattle

1669
01:06:35,926 --> 01:06:37,525
    to see her for Christmas.

1670
01:06:37,561 --> 01:06:39,094
          Well, I was,

1671
01:06:39,162 --> 01:06:42,230
        and there's just
    a little change in plans.

1672
01:06:42,265 --> 01:06:44,399
       Because you wanted
  to stay here with us longer?

1673
01:06:44,434 --> 01:06:46,167
                  [Willa laughs]

1674
01:06:46,203 --> 01:06:47,569
                           Um...

1675
01:06:47,604 --> 01:06:49,537
        There's a display
     I wanted to go look at

1676
01:06:49,573 --> 01:06:50,372
          in the store.

1677
01:06:50,407 --> 01:06:51,539
          Can I see it?

1678
01:06:51,575 --> 01:06:52,540
                       [Willa]:
                       Uh, sure.

1679
01:06:52,576 --> 01:06:54,042
                           Okay.

1680
01:06:55,445 --> 01:06:57,512
            [Willa]:
    Hey, is everything okay?

1681
01:06:57,547 --> 01:06:59,914
        [Finn]: Oh, yeah.
          I just, um...

1682
01:06:59,950 --> 01:07:03,585
   I just have really enjoyed
   our time together, Willa...

1683
01:07:03,620 --> 01:07:05,920
           Yeah, me...
             me too.

1684
01:07:05,956 --> 01:07:07,689
  And I don't want it to end...

1685
01:07:07,724 --> 01:07:09,391
             I mean,

1686
01:07:09,426 --> 01:07:10,859
  if you felt the same way too.

1687
01:07:10,894 --> 01:07:11,793
                      I... I do.

1688
01:07:11,862 --> 01:07:13,728
              I...

1689
01:07:13,764 --> 01:07:16,464
     And I don't really know
   what that would look like,

1690
01:07:16,533 --> 01:07:18,767
    or how that would work...

1691
01:07:18,802 --> 01:07:19,868
But you would want to,

1692
01:07:19,903 --> 01:07:21,703
          if we could?

1693
01:07:21,738 --> 01:07:23,338
            You know,
    I can work from anywhere.

1694
01:07:23,373 --> 01:07:24,739
Not that I'm...
uh...

1695
01:07:24,775 --> 01:07:26,341
           um... uh...

1696
01:07:26,376 --> 01:07:29,044
Later, can we meet up
in the library?

1697
01:07:29,079 --> 01:07:30,111
              Sure.

1698
01:07:30,180 --> 01:07:31,279
             -Yeah.
             -Yeah.

1699
01:07:31,348 --> 01:07:32,614
  There's a poster
  with Ken on it

1700
01:07:32,682 --> 01:07:33,715
    in the store
    window!

1701
01:07:33,750 --> 01:07:34,749
                    Really?

1702
01:07:34,785 --> 01:07:36,551
        Mm-mmm, uh, shh.

1703
01:07:36,586 --> 01:07:37,552
                  [Willa]: What
                  are you two...

1704
01:07:37,587 --> 01:07:38,453
              [Scout]:
              We should get back

1705
01:07:38,522 --> 01:07:40,388
      and get ready.

1706
01:07:40,424 --> 01:07:41,756
         Ready for what?
          I don't know.

1707
01:07:41,792 --> 01:07:43,758
         Oh, all right.
   I won't ask any questions.

1708
01:07:43,794 --> 01:07:45,693
[Finn]:
Yep. Move along.

1709
01:07:49,466 --> 01:07:50,965
            Come in.

1710
01:07:54,471 --> 01:07:55,537
              Well?

1711
01:07:55,572 --> 01:07:57,705
   I started the ball rolling.

1712
01:07:58,809 --> 01:08:01,609
      What does that mean?

1713
01:08:01,645 --> 01:08:03,711
  Oh, you didn't say anything.

1714
01:08:03,747 --> 01:08:04,813
              Finn!

1715
01:08:04,881 --> 01:08:06,948
     I'm going to tell her.
             Just...

1716
01:08:06,983 --> 01:08:09,384
 after this thing tonight, okay?

1717
01:08:09,419 --> 01:08:11,086
             Just...
     let me get through this

1718
01:08:11,121 --> 01:08:12,987
                       before...

1719
01:08:13,056 --> 01:08:14,823
       before she hates me

1720
01:08:14,891 --> 01:08:16,157
         and never wants
      to speak to me again.

1721
01:08:17,794 --> 01:08:19,127
                   Why don't you
                   come with me?

1722
01:08:19,196 --> 01:08:21,563
    Meet Willa, talk to her.
         Talk to Scout.

1723
01:08:21,598 --> 01:08:23,965
              I think you'll see
              what I see.

1724
01:08:25,102 --> 01:08:26,734
              I...

1725
01:08:28,972 --> 01:08:31,873
    You threw the papers out?

1726
01:08:35,579 --> 01:08:37,245
    You'd better tell her...

1727
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:38,780
           tonight...

1728
01:08:38,815 --> 01:08:40,448
      because if you don't,

1729
01:08:40,484 --> 01:08:42,250
             I will.

1730
01:08:50,827 --> 01:08:52,260
        [Ken, as Santa]:
          Did you know

1731
01:08:52,295 --> 01:08:54,429
         that this book,
  <i> The Night Before Christmas,</i>

1732
01:08:54,464 --> 01:08:56,764
           was a gift
from the writer to his daughter?

1733
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:59,334
     After we read the poem,
   we'll celebrate the holiday

1734
01:08:59,402 --> 01:09:01,970
with homemade Christmas cookies!

1735
01:09:02,005 --> 01:09:03,071
        [children cheer]

1736
01:09:05,108 --> 01:09:08,176
      And there's one more
      extra-special treat.

1737
01:09:08,245 --> 01:09:09,978
                 We have
                 with us tonight

1738
01:09:10,046 --> 01:09:12,981
         the illustrator
  from the<i> Everyday Sam</i> books,

1739
01:09:13,049 --> 01:09:15,917
       Mr. Finn Knightly!

1740
01:09:15,952 --> 01:09:17,619
     Hey, guys.

1741
01:09:17,654 --> 01:09:19,821
           Shall we get started?

1742
01:09:19,890 --> 01:09:21,823
         'Twas the night
        before Christmas,

1743
01:09:21,892 --> 01:09:23,658
   when all through the house,

1744
01:09:23,727 --> 01:09:26,728
  not a creature was stirring,
       not even a mouse...

1745
01:09:29,166 --> 01:09:30,899
       [Finn]: So I think
   what Everyday Sam shows us

1746
01:09:30,934 --> 01:09:36,337
  is that any kid can be a hero
       in their own life,

1747
01:09:36,406 --> 01:09:37,505
   and right here in Bramble,

1748
01:09:37,574 --> 01:09:41,109
            I, um...
     I met a hero of my own,

1749
01:09:41,144 --> 01:09:43,077
          and his name
       is Scout Fairchild.

1750
01:09:43,113 --> 01:09:45,146
               Scout, can you
               stand up, please?

1751
01:09:48,285 --> 01:09:50,919
                     Come on up,
                     come on up.

1752
01:09:50,954 --> 01:09:52,987
           Scout here
     has a very special gift

1753
01:09:53,023 --> 01:09:55,290
       that he would like
    to share with us tonight,

1754
01:09:55,325 --> 01:09:56,925
                          and...

1755
01:09:56,960 --> 01:10:01,696
                it is his
                very first book.

1756
01:10:01,765 --> 01:10:03,665
  I had a great time in Bramble
            this week

1757
01:10:03,733 --> 01:10:05,567
         because my mom
        brought me here,

1758
01:10:05,602 --> 01:10:07,335
    so Merry Christmas, Mom.

1759
01:10:07,404 --> 01:10:10,004
        You're the best.

1760
01:10:10,073 --> 01:10:11,339
           [applause]

1761
01:10:13,343 --> 01:10:15,243
What is this?

1762
01:10:34,431 --> 01:10:36,331
Best Christmas ever.

1763
01:10:40,303 --> 01:10:42,604
           Thank you.

1764
01:10:47,210 --> 01:10:48,176
              Um...

1765
01:10:51,114 --> 01:10:52,647
                [Ken, as Santa]:
                Here you go.

1766
01:10:52,682 --> 01:10:53,514
               [Mable]: Don't
               forget your milk.

1767
01:10:54,851 --> 01:10:56,150

      sweetheart.

1768

                  There you are.

1769

1771
01:11:05,295 --> 01:11:08,763
       Maybe I could, uh,
       help you clean up.

1772
01:11:08,798 --> 01:11:11,332
Maybe I'd be okay
with that.

1773
01:11:12,369 --> 01:11:13,935
             Really?

1774
01:11:13,970 --> 01:11:16,871
  Maybe I should have said that
        a long time ago.

1775
01:11:16,940 --> 01:11:19,941
  Well, better late than never.

1776

    [Scout]: And afterwards,

1777
01:11:22,012 --> 01:11:24,679
  all these kids came up to me
     to see Finn's drawings.

1778
01:11:24,714 --> 01:11:25,713
       Can you believe it?

1779
01:11:25,782 --> 01:11:27,048
                     I saw that!

1780
01:11:27,117 --> 01:11:28,950
                It was an
                incredible gift,

1781
01:11:28,985 --> 01:11:31,119

       It's Christmas Eve.

1783
01:11:32,455 --> 01:11:34,055
     Can I open one present?

1784
01:11:34,124 --> 01:11:35,957
                No, because you
                had a big night,

1785
01:11:35,992 --> 01:11:37,392
              and because Santa
              still has to come.

1786
01:11:37,460 --> 01:11:38,393
Real Santa?

Hello!

1792
01:11:50,173 --> 01:11:51,939
          We didn't get
   to officially meet earlier,

1793
01:11:51,975 --> 01:11:53,708
    and your brother has been
    so kind to me and my son.

1794
01:11:53,777 --> 01:11:55,443
I'm Willa Fairchild.

1795
01:11:55,478 --> 01:11:56,611
       I know who you are.

1796
01:11:56,646 --> 01:12:00,648
                My full name
                is Molly Conrad,

1797
01:12:00,684 --> 01:12:06,487
      and Finn's full name
 is Gregory Finnegan Conrad, Jr.

1798
01:12:06,523 --> 01:12:08,389
          Knightly's just
          his professional name.

1799
01:12:09,826 --> 01:12:11,559
           We're both
     Greg Conrad's children.

1800
01:12:18,134 --> 01:12:19,567
So you're Molly,

1801
01:12:19,602 --> 01:12:21,002
and Finn is Greg Jr.?

1802
01:12:22,339 --> 01:12:23,338
     Well...

1803
01:12:23,406 --> 01:12:25,640
why wouldn't
he tell me that?

1804
01:12:25,675 --> 01:12:27,008
        Because he wanted
      to find out the truth

1805
01:12:27,077 --> 01:12:28,343
       about what you did
         to our father.

1806
01:12:28,411 --> 01:12:30,611
What I did to him?

1807
01:12:30,647 --> 01:12:31,746
                  Conning him...

1808
01:12:31,781 --> 01:12:33,748
      into leaving you $100,000.

1809
01:12:33,783 --> 01:12:36,584
You think I conned him?

1810
01:12:36,619 --> 01:12:39,020
          Wha...

1811
01:12:39,089 --> 01:12:40,655
Finn thinks I conned him?

1812
01:12:40,690 --> 01:12:42,490
           He had a lawyer
           draw up an injunction

1813
01:12:42,559 --> 01:12:44,092
            to file against you.

1814
01:12:46,296 --> 01:12:47,295
              No...

1815
01:12:47,330 --> 01:12:48,930
  Finn wouldn't...

1816
01:12:48,965 --> 01:12:49,831
                    [Finn]:
                    Molly, stop!

1817
01:12:51,935 --> 01:12:53,434
            Willa...

1818
01:12:53,470 --> 01:12:54,469
Did you do this?

1819
01:12:54,504 --> 01:12:55,670
                    No, Molly...

1820
01:12:55,739 --> 01:12:57,605
You thought
I stole from you

1821
01:12:57,640 --> 01:12:59,006
so you came here to...

1822
01:12:59,075 --> 01:13:00,575
to... to what?

1823
01:13:00,610 --> 01:13:01,576
to get close to me,
and then...

1824
01:13:01,611 --> 01:13:02,577
                             No.

1825
01:13:02,612 --> 01:13:04,112
          I told Molly

1826
01:13:04,147 --> 01:13:06,147
       that you didn't do
         anything wrong.

1827
01:13:06,182 --> 01:13:06,981
     I understand that now.

1828
01:13:07,016 --> 01:13:08,316
    "Now?"

1829
01:13:09,419 --> 01:13:10,852
So it's true.

1830
01:13:12,989 --> 01:13:14,989
   You came here to expose me
             as a...

1831
01:13:15,024 --> 01:13:16,290
     as a fraud, as a fake?

1832
01:13:16,326 --> 01:13:17,458
               No.

1833
01:13:19,329 --> 01:13:21,162
   Okay, it started like that,
          but after...

1834
01:13:21,197 --> 01:13:22,296
     It "started" like that?

1835

        What about Scout?

1836
01:13:28,004 --> 01:13:29,637

       to a nine-year-old?

1837
01:13:29,672 --> 01:13:30,972
         Of course not.

1838
01:13:31,007 --> 01:13:32,173
      Look, let me explain.

1839
01:13:32,208 --> 01:13:33,775
You know what?

1840
01:13:33,810 --> 01:13:37,745
           I am sorry
     to disappoint you both,

1841
01:13:37,781 --> 01:13:40,148
     but I'm not interested
         in your money.

1842

If you want to know
what I did,

1845
01:13:44,187 --> 01:13:45,853
       I listened to him.

1846
01:13:47,690 --> 01:13:50,158
     Everything that he did,

1847
01:13:50,193 --> 01:13:52,627
        from staying away
    after he left your mother

1848
01:13:52,662 --> 01:13:54,862
    to keeping the ornaments
     that you made for him,

1849
01:13:54,931 --> 01:13:57,832
  he did because he loved you,

1850
01:13:57,867 --> 01:13:59,534
and maybe he made
a mistake,

1851
01:13:59,602 --> 01:14:00,768
but he loved you both

1852

           so much...

Excuse me.

01:16:31,054 --> 01:16:32,386
        a few weeks ago.

1904
01:16:32,422 --> 01:16:34,589
Oh, I am so sorry.

1905
01:16:34,657 --> 01:16:36,390
           Thank you.

1906
01:16:39,529 --> 01:16:42,330
     You just never picture
           your parent

1907
01:16:42,365 --> 01:16:44,332
    being a kid at Christmas.

1908
01:16:44,367 --> 01:16:46,233
   Is that why you came here?

1909
01:16:46,269 --> 01:16:47,501
                       I came...

1910
01:16:47,537 --> 01:16:51,372
     I think Finn and I came
           because...

1911
01:16:54,077 --> 01:16:55,242
           I'm sorry.

1912
01:16:55,278 --> 01:16:56,577
              Can I borrow this,
              please?

1913
01:16:56,613 --> 01:16:57,612
       Yes.

1914
01:16:57,680 --> 01:16:59,847
           Thank you.

1915
01:16:59,882 --> 01:17:02,550
     Is there anything else
            I can do?

1916
01:17:04,020 --> 01:17:06,387
      I need to find Willa.

1917
01:17:06,422 --> 01:17:07,755
[knocking on door]

1918
01:17:08,725 --> 01:17:10,057
              Yeah.

1919
01:17:14,530 --> 01:17:15,696
             [Finn]:
   I can't believe that's Dad.

1920
01:17:15,732 --> 01:17:16,564
       He looks so happy.

1921
01:17:16,599 --> 01:17:17,898
         [Molly]: Yeah.

1922
01:17:17,934 --> 01:17:20,267
            That's why he wanted
            Willa to come here.

1923
01:17:20,336 --> 01:17:22,269
               He wanted to give
               her and her son

1924
01:17:22,338 --> 01:17:24,538
              a Christmas memory
              like he had.

1925
01:17:27,543 --> 01:17:29,210
         And that's why he saved
         those ornaments,

1926
01:17:29,245 --> 01:17:32,213
        'cause that was his last
        Christmas with us too.

1927
01:17:34,283 --> 01:17:35,583
        I was just so mad

1928
01:17:35,618 --> 01:17:37,284
          at everything
      I thought I had lost,

1929
01:17:37,353 --> 01:17:39,620
      but Willa and Scout,
             they...

1930
01:17:42,125 --> 01:17:43,591
        they brought Dad
           back to me.

1931
01:17:43,626 --> 01:17:45,893
                 After you left,
                 I just...

1932
01:17:45,928 --> 01:17:48,863
               I got so angry...

1933
01:17:48,898 --> 01:17:50,031
              but it is not
              their fault.

1934
01:17:50,066 --> 01:17:51,699
    No, it's no one's fault.

1935
01:17:54,303 --> 01:17:57,304
           Finn, Willa and Scout
           left for the airport.

1936
01:17:59,842 --> 01:18:00,775
            [Scout]:
       I don't understand.

1937
01:18:00,810 --> 01:18:03,444
    Why did we have to leave?

1938
01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:04,912
   I told you already, Scout.

1939
01:18:04,947 --> 01:18:06,747
           It just...

1940
01:18:06,783 --> 01:18:09,216
       it didn't work out
        at Bramble House.

1941
01:18:09,252 --> 01:18:10,484
       But it's Christmas!

1942
01:18:10,553 --> 01:18:13,220
We didn't even get
to say goodbye.

1943
01:18:13,256 --> 01:18:15,122
        I'm sorry, baby.
        I'm really sorry.

1944
01:18:18,461 --> 01:18:20,561
        Mom, please stop!

1945
01:18:20,596 --> 01:18:22,563
     I want to see the tree
         one last time.

1946
01:18:22,598 --> 01:18:23,431
                         [sighs]

1947
01:18:25,168 --> 01:18:26,667
              Okay.

1948
01:18:26,736 --> 01:18:28,636
                  Just for
                  a few minutes.

1949
01:18:34,077 --> 01:18:36,310
            [Molly]:
      So, what's your plan?

1950
01:18:36,345 --> 01:18:37,812
  I'm going to stop her plane.
         That's my plan.

1951
01:18:39,782 --> 01:18:40,848
           Wait, wait!
            Hold on!

1952
01:18:40,917 --> 01:18:41,816
           Pull over!
       Pull over, please!

1953
01:18:41,851 --> 01:18:43,684
Just stop.
Just stop!

1954
01:18:43,753 --> 01:18:45,419
             [Finn]:
    That's them by the tree!

1955
01:18:47,523 --> 01:18:49,323
      [Willa]: We'll always
     have beautiful memories

1956
01:18:49,358 --> 01:18:51,459
         of this place,

1957
01:18:51,494 --> 01:18:54,161
           and that's
 what Mr. Conrad wanted for us.

1958
01:18:55,932 --> 01:18:57,231
                    [Finn]: Hey!

1959
01:18:58,234 --> 01:19:00,067
           Mom! Finn!

1960
01:19:02,505 --> 01:19:04,105
    Please just hear me out.

1961
01:19:04,140 --> 01:19:05,139
Finn...

1962
01:19:05,174 --> 01:19:06,140
        I'm begging you.

1963
01:19:06,175 --> 01:19:08,275
                    I...

1964
01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:11,946
             Look, Willa, I made
             a terrible mistake,

1965
01:19:11,981 --> 01:19:13,514
                      so please,

1966
01:19:13,583 --> 01:19:15,816
                 don't blame him
                 for what I did.

1967
01:19:15,852 --> 01:19:17,752
                   Will you
                   hear him out?

1968
01:19:22,024 --> 01:19:23,758
            Hi! My name's Molly.

1969
01:19:23,793 --> 01:19:25,826
                   I'm Finn's
                   older sister.

1970
01:19:25,862 --> 01:19:26,761
             Would you show me
             the Christmas tree?

1971
01:19:26,796 --> 01:19:27,661
             Mm-hm.

1972
01:19:27,697 --> 01:19:29,630
              Yeah.

1973
01:19:29,665 --> 01:19:30,965
            Go ahead.

1974
01:19:36,973 --> 01:19:39,306
         I did everything wrong.

1975
01:19:39,342 --> 01:19:40,641
                           Uh...

1976
01:19:40,676 --> 01:19:41,876
              I should have
              told you the truth

1977
01:19:41,944 --> 01:19:42,943
             from the beginning,

1978
01:19:42,979 --> 01:19:44,678
   but you have to believe me.

1979
01:19:44,714 --> 01:19:46,647
 The only lie I really told you
   was why I came to Bramble.

1980
01:19:46,682 --> 01:19:48,949
    Everything else, this...

1981
01:19:48,985 --> 01:19:50,351
            was real.

1982
01:19:51,654 --> 01:19:52,753
         I trusted you.

1983
01:19:52,789 --> 01:19:53,921
             I know.

1984
01:19:53,956 --> 01:19:56,791
       I hadn't done that
          with anyone.

1985
01:19:56,826 --> 01:20:00,127
      I was just so blinded
      by what had happened,

1986
01:20:00,163 --> 01:20:01,262
 and I couldn't see through it,

1987
01:20:01,297 --> 01:20:04,365
 but you opened my eyes, and...

1988
01:20:04,433 --> 01:20:07,768
   if nothing comes from this,

1989
01:20:07,804 --> 01:20:09,670
I will always be grateful to you
            for that.

1990
01:20:09,705 --> 01:20:11,605
                          Hey...

1991
01:20:11,641 --> 01:20:13,040
                    but Willa...

1992
01:20:14,644 --> 01:20:16,811
 Let me make it up to you, hmm?

1993
01:20:16,846 --> 01:20:18,512
        Let me make this
the best Christmas for you ever,

1994
01:20:18,548 --> 01:20:21,182
                    for you
                    and Scout...

1995
01:20:21,217 --> 01:20:23,551
                    and the best
                    New Year's,

1996
01:20:23,619 --> 01:20:27,688
         and the best...
        Valentine's Day,

1997
01:20:27,723 --> 01:20:28,956
       and the best Arbor Day...

1998
01:20:28,991 --> 01:20:30,324
                           uh...

1999
01:20:30,359 --> 01:20:32,526
                  National...
                  Ice Cream Day,

2000
01:20:32,562 --> 01:20:33,394
              if that's a thing?

2001
01:20:33,462 --> 01:20:34,461
                'Cause I just...

2002
01:20:34,497 --> 01:20:35,996
             any day

2003
01:20:36,032 --> 01:20:38,499
      that you will let me
     make special for you...

2004
01:20:43,339 --> 01:20:44,338
   Finn...

2005
01:20:44,373 --> 01:20:47,007
        Stay in Bramble.

2006
01:20:49,011 --> 01:20:51,312
     It's where you belong.

2007
01:20:51,347 --> 01:20:56,951
       You told me that my dad
       gave you a second chance.

2008
01:20:59,722 --> 01:21:02,656
         All I'm asking
  is that you give me one too.

2009
01:21:06,696 --> 01:21:07,695
      Okay.

2010
01:21:10,366 --> 01:21:11,465
              Okay?

2011
01:21:15,738 --> 01:21:18,239
Yes, I will stay.

2012
01:21:18,307 --> 01:21:20,474
                  [laughs]
                  Oh, I could...

2013
01:21:35,157 --> 01:21:37,324
             Ewwwww.

2014
01:21:37,360 --> 01:21:39,827
                Hey!

2015
01:21:39,862 --> 01:21:41,662
                   Hi there.

2016
01:21:43,833 --> 01:21:45,833
                   [Willa]: Hey,
                   buddy, um...

2017
01:21:45,868 --> 01:21:49,870
 What do you think about staying
          at Bramble...

2018
01:21:49,906 --> 01:21:51,205
        the three of us?

2019
01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:53,641
             Really?

2020
01:21:53,676 --> 01:21:54,742
                [Finn, laughing]
                Oh, Scout...

2021
01:21:56,412 --> 01:21:57,878
                   Thanks, Mols,

2022
01:21:57,914 --> 01:21:58,979
               for making
               my Christmas wish

2023
01:21:59,015 --> 01:22:00,180
                      come true.

2024
01:22:00,216 --> 01:22:01,515
          [they laugh]

2025
01:22:01,550 --> 01:22:03,651
                      What?
                      It's true.

2026
01:22:03,686 --> 01:22:05,853
   Well, that's what Christmas
         is all about...

2027
01:22:05,888 --> 01:22:08,489
          to remind you
   that wishes can come true.

2028
01:22:08,524 --> 01:22:09,657
         -That's right.
     -Let's go see the tree.

2029
01:22:09,692 --> 01:22:11,425
          Okay, buddy.

2030
01:22:20,036 --> 01:22:21,268

2038
01:22:37,420 --> 01:22:38,519
              and a new business
              partner!
