I'm still lost.

I should have come with you
instead of hanging back

a few days.

Yes. You should
have come with me.

It's Christmas
for Christmas' sake.

Then again, you're not exactly
the outdoorsy type of person.

What is that supposed to mean?

Your idea of roughing it
is IKEA on a Saturday.

Because that place
is like a casino.

There's no windows,
there's no clocks

and the house always wins.

Anyways, I'm trying to
keep our business afloat.

And I appreciate it,
but I am committed to

keeping our family
Christmas tradition alive.

Plus, going to this town
is on my bucket list.

Because of that postcard
you found at Grandma's?

It's like fate that
she wanted us to find it.

Like she really
wanted us to go there.

Well, if only she
also left you directions.

When are mom and dad coming up?

The 23rd. I can't wait
for everybody to get here

so we can celebrate
Christmas together.

What's so special about
a Cottage Country Boat Parade?

Annual Christmas
Harbor Festival.

Every year,
all the boats in the harbor

get decorated for Christmas.

It's what Mistletoe Lake
is famous for, Tara.

Well, you and I have very
different bucket lists.

Alright. Hang on, Tara.

Mom and Dad are calling.

Okay.

Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.

Did you get there?

Not yet.

Hi, sweetie.

Tell me.
How did they manage to hold

a boat festival in
the middle of winter?

I mean, I'm no scientist,
but I heard that water turns

into this thing called
ice when it gets cold.

I don't know, Dad.
Christmas magic.

We're so excited about
seeing you honey.

Me too, Mom, but I gotta go.

I'm still lost and I have
Tara on the other line.

I'll see you guys in a few days.

Did Dad that ask you why
the lake doesn't freeze over?

Yep.
For about the millionth time.

I mean,
I'd tell him to Google it,

but that would require
teaching him how to Google.

So, we'll have to ask
somebody at the hotel.

Oh, speaking of, I drove past
the Sunset Inn on the freeway

- about five minutes ago.
- Mm-hm.

I cancelled our reservation.
We are not staying there.

My sister the princess.

Okay. So, where are
we all supposed to say?

Oh, I'm sure there's a cute
bed and breakfast in town.

I'm so excited.

You're not wearing those

Christmas ornament earrings,
are you?

Me? Christmas ornament earrings?

Don't be crazy.

Good, 'cause they make
your head look big.

Anyways, please do us a favor.

If you happen to see any
potential business opportunities

pounce on them.

We could use anything
we can get right now.

Yeah, yeah.
Get back to work, Scrooge.

Yeah, yeah.
Merry Christmas. See you soon.

Hope you get there.

Proceed to the route.

For goodness sake.

Hi, do you work here?

That's an odd question
considering I'm standing

behind the counter.

Right. Of course, silly me.

Well, I was wondering--

Actually, I don't.

- You don't--
- Work here.

Well, if you don't work here,

then you probably shouldn't
be behind the counter.

I suppose you're right.

So, you're from the city?

- The city.
- Mm-hm.

You do know there's
more than one, right?

You know, I heard that.
I don't much believe it.

See, we country folk, we're not
as gullible as you think.

Next, you'll try to convince me
that the world isn't flat.

Alright. Yep. You got me.

I am in fact from the city.

Well, I hate to disappoint,

but they're all
out of mistle-toast.

They'll be making more few days.

Mistle-toast?

Yeah, Christmas nutmeg,
mistle-toast.

It's a local delicacy.

Always a big hit
with the seasonals.

Seasonals.

Yeah, you know, tourists.

Thanks for watching the store,
Dad. See you at dinner.

Okay. No problem, Em.

Hope you enjoy your stay.

I'll do my best.

You visiting?

Yeah.

Well, we're all out of--

Mistle-toast. I heard.

What exactly is mistle-toast?

It's basically like
a fancy version of waffles.

They're really good though.

Are you the one that
decorated the store?

Yeah, my dad's not
really into decorating

for the holidays this year.

So, this is my only outlet.

The finishing touch is
a display for the window.

I want to do a diorama of
the Christmas Harbor Festival.

I am so excited to see it,
the real one I mean.

And your diorama, I'm sure
it's going to be cool, too.

Thanks.

It's amazing. How this is
the only Harbor Festival

that takes place at Christmas.

Because of the hot spring.

The--

There's a natural
hot spring under the lake,

which stops it
from freezing over.

That's why the boats can stay
in the water all year round.

A lot of the tourist think
it's because of Christmas magic.

Hm, silly tourists.

Is it a true that all
the boats in the harbor

get all decorated with lights
and go all out?

Yeah.

Well, all the boats
in the harbor

except one this year.

Would you happen
to know if there's

a hotel in town that
I could book a room?

There's only one inn,
but it's probably fully booked

because of Christmas.

You can go over
and try your luck.

My grandma runs it.

It's about a block
down Main Street.

That way.

Yeah.

Thank you.

I'm so sorry,
we're completely full.

Christmas is peak
season due to the--

Christmas Harbor Festival.

It's kind of why I'm here.

We've been booked
out for months now.

You could try
the Sunset Hotel.

I actually had
a reservation there

and I stupidly canceled it.

Why don't I call and see if
your room is still available?

Please. Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hey, there.
Yeah, Emmaline at Mistletoe B

Listen, do you
have any vacancies?

Right. Yes.

Thank you. Same to you. Bye-bye.

Sorry. The last reservation
went ten minutes ago.

They don't have
anything until the 23rd.

The whole area is very busy.

It's just my luck.

Thank you for trying to help.

- Happy holidays.
- You too.

Alright,
let's get you registered.

Really makes you
feel at home, doesn't it?

Louis Edward?

Hello, Reilly Shore.

What are you doing here?

I'm here because of you.

Me?

I was in your office
a few months ago,

when you were planning your,
uh, what do you call it?

Yearly holiday custom?

Annual Christmas tradition.

You were researching
Mistletoe Lake

and you inspired me
to check it out.

This town is amazing.

I have only been
here a couple days

and I've already convinced
my sister and her kids

to come later in the week.

Wow, how serendipitous.

Yeah, how's business?

Oh. You know,
things are a plugging along.

I gotta tell you again
how talented you are.

That last property you
staged for me was the reason

it sold so quickly
and a bidding war to boot.

It was in a great location.

It was about to sell regardless.

No, no, no, no. I don't do that.

It was a terrible location
and needed a lot of work.

Still, I did very
well because of you.

Listen, I have an appointment,

but since we're both in town,
why don't we get together

- for some lunch?
- Sure, yeah.

So, good to see you.

Okay.

Any luck?

So, what are you gonna do?

Well, I did a search
of nearby hotels.

Would you know how far
Suttonville is from here?

Three hours.

I'd be halfway home by then.

Wow, you run the store
and decorate it all by yourself.

That's impressive.

Thanks.

My dream is to be
a set designer someday.

I applied to this private
art school in New Hampshire.

It's one of the best private
high schools in the country.

Well, if it were up to me,
you would be a shoe-in.

I wish I could have gone
to a school like that

when I started out.

You're a designer as well?

Yeah, interior design,
but now my sister and I

have a home staging business.

What's home staging?

Sometimes people buy
vacant houses and fix them up

so they can sell
them for more money.

They hire people like me
to decorate them,

make them feel more homey,
so they can charge more.

How come you're not spending
Christmas with your boyfriend

or husband or something?

Sorry, was that
a rude question to ask?

No, no, it's fine.

You just-- you remind me of
myself when I was your age.

Well, I'm not spending Christmas
with a boyfriend or husband

or something, because I don't--
I don't have a boyfriend

or husband or something.

Why not?

You seem like a catch?

I guess I'm just
waiting for the right guy.

You don't seem like the type of
person to be waiting for a guy.

You're right.

Well, maybe I'm just
keeping my eye out for

the right one to cross my path.

Smart.

You want to come
see my dad's boat?

I love to, but I think I should
figure out my plan first.

It won't take too long.

You said you came
here to see boats, right?

Ours is the nicest one.

I'll make you some
coconut milk eggnog.

Coconut milk eggnog.

How can I say no?

The boat's named
after my grandma.

And I'm named after her.

Dad, I like you to meet
a new friend of mine.

We met earlier,

Not officially.

Tourist city girl, right?

I also respond to Reilly.

Country boy who doesn't
work at the general store.

That's me, or Ray.

Oh, okay.

Well, for the record,

I wouldn't call
myself a tourist.

Now, what would
you call yourself?

A visitor from out of town

who's here to enjoy
the sights at Christmas.

Huh.

Okay, fine. Yes.

I am a tourist.

Nothing to be ashamed.

Do you want some eggnog, dad?

Yeah. I'd love some, sweetie.

Come on, Reilly.

Permission to come aboard?

Thank you.

Gorgeous.

Yeah, you get
sick of it after a while.

I really, really
love the country.

You know, it's odd that
someone from the city

has such affinity
for the country.

Just as odd as a guy who's sick
of the water, but owns a boat.

Dad!

- There we go.
- Thank you.

Reilly is visiting
for Christmas,

but she doesn't
have anywhere to stay.

And I just had
the most brilliant idea.

I always get a little
nervous when you say that, Em.

Reilly should stay here.

Reilly and Ray:
Here?

You mean like on the boat?

My dad and I live
in a cottage in town.

The boat just sits here empty.

Think of it like
a floating Airbnb.

I could pay you.

Dad!

We don't take money from
visitors that are in a bind.

That's not our style.

Well, if you're fixing it up,
at least let me help.

You know anything
about inboard motors?

Can't be that much different
from a car engine, right?

I used to help my dad
suit up the car before

family road trips.

And she's really good
with Christmas decorations.

Okay, remember what
we talked about though?

We're probably not
decorating the boat this year.

That guy he's very interested.

He's going to
tell us any day now.

I know, but just in case.

You're welcome to stay here,

until the sale
goes through of course.

I'll come help you
with your luggage.

Um...

Are-- Are you sure?

Yeah. Yeah, of course. Yeah.

Okay.

Have a great night.

Umm...

Okay.

So, you agreed to stay
on a stranger's boat?

I know it's crazy,
but I can't explain it.

I just immediately
felt at home here.

Okay. Well, I'm not staying
on a boat. I get seasick.

Oh, yeah.
Now who's being a princess?

You'll never guess who
I ran into in town yesterday.

Bigfoot.

Louis Edward.

Louis Only Our Best
Client Ever Edward?

Well, what is he doing
in Mistletoe Lake?

What are the chances?

What you think he's doing there?

He must be planning some
sort of big business deal.

Or he's just spending
a Christmas holiday.

Did you know that
he was going to be here?

No, how would I know that?

But you should take
a meeting with him.

Oh, yeah, cause that's
exactly what he wants.

From me to Corner him
and shake him down for business.

Well, if you're too proud,
I will do it,

because a solid contract
at the start of the year

is exactly what we need.

I mean, Louis is
a nice guy and everything,

but he's got terrible taste.

Don't be such an artist.

Be a professional.

Speaking of, did, um,
did he mention having

a girlfriend or anything?

You've got the hots for Louis
and you're telling me

to be professional?

He's a client, Tara.

And? I am allowed to
have a crush on a client.

Does he still look
as handsome as ever?

Yeah, okay.
I'm hanging up now. Bye.

Hi.

Hi.

Permission to come aboard?

Of course. It's your boat.

Yeah, right.

Sorry to disturb you so early.
I was just hoping to get

a little work done
in the engine.

No, no disturbance at all.

I see you managed
to make some coffee.

I found some frozen
grounds in your freezer

with the leftover eggnog,

and using a paper towel
as a filter

I MacGuyvered myself a latte.

Do you want one?

Sure. Yeah.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Ow!

Ow! God!

Need some help down there?

Yeah.

Well, it looks like
you need a new alternator,

and you're probably
going to need a new belt.

This one is pretty old.

Ah. New belt, huh?

I mean,
this one works just fine.

That is such a dad joke.

So, how did you find yourself

in a little town for Christmas?

Well, growing up,
my parents had a business

where they would buy houses,
fix them up, and sell them.

So we moved about once a year.

My sister and I were constantly
finding ourselves having to

adjust to new schools, new
neighborhoods, and friends.

So, my grandma
came up with a solution.

Every Christmas,
we got to choose where we would

spend the holidays as a family.

You know, gave us something
to look forward to every year.

I like that.

Well, a few months ago,
I was going through

my grandmother's things
and found postcards

of Mistletoe Lake.

The town looked so beautiful,
I just knew I had to

come see it for myself.

You weren't kidding.

You really know
what you doing down here.

Well, it hasn't started yet.

This alternator's pretty old.

Wanna give it a shot?

Alright, let's do it.

You okay?

I think it's safe to say
you need a new alternator.

I need you safe to say,
you need a new sweater.

Yeah.

Let's check the bindings.

Again?

We do it every time.

Hey, what are you guys up to?

My dad and I are going skiing.

We usually try to get out
once a week in the winter.

Skiing? Sounds cool.

I didn't know there were
any mountains around here.

There aren't.

These are cross-country skis,
city girl.

Right, of course,
cross-country skis.

It sounds like fun.
I'd love to go sometime.

What size are your feet?

About six and a half.

You're in luck.
We're the same size.

You can use my skis,
and my boots.

What are you going to wear?

I totally forgot.

I'm supposed to go
to the lighthouse today.

Some of the town's folk
get together for Christmas

and decorate the lighthouse.

This year, I got put in
charge of designing it.

I didn't know you
had to go there today.

Working in the arts is
like being a doctor, Dad.

You're always on call.

You kids have fun.

Well, you have cross-country
skied before, right?

Oh, yeah, of course.

Sometimes I cross-country ski
to work instead of taking Uber.

Look at you!

Speedster over here!

Thanks.

Wait, no Irish Cream?

Oh, I thought about putting
some in before we left,

but you looked a little
wobbly on those skis

and I thought better of it.

So, tell me.

How did this whole Harbor
Christmas Festival start?

Well, um, my dad.

One Christmas, he wanted to
do something really special

for my mom.

So, on Christmas Eve,
he stayed up all night

decorating the boat with lights
and ornaments to surprise her.

And she loved it so much that
we had to do it every year.

And next thing you know everyone
on the lake who had a boat

starts decorating their boats,

and it became a local tradition.

You know, after my dad passed,
all the locals got together

and decided to keep
the tradition going

in honor of his memory.

That's incredible.

But soon after
all the year-rounders

started moving away
and replaced by seasonals.

Tourists.

Yeah.

I mean, they kept the tradition
of the festival going.

But they didn't know how
or why it started.

Why did all
the locals move away?

Well, this used to be
one of the best kept secrets

of cottage country,

and then some
rich guy came along,

bought up one of
the old cottages.

And he renovates it
to the point where

it's not a cottage anymore.

It's mansion on the lake,

and more people
came to the same thing

and soon price of
living got so high

that the locals
couldn't afford it anymore.

I've even felt the crunch,
I mean...

It's gotten so expensive
just to moor the boat,

I really have no choice
but to sell it.

This town just isn't the same
place I grew up in anymore.

Still, you must be
really proud that your dad

started such a unique
tradition here.

Yeah.

If you wanted to enter the boat
into the Festival this year,

you know,
for the last time and all,

I'd be happy to help.

I'd really like that.

But, you know, the sale on
the boat could go through

any day and I don't want to tell
Em we're going in the festival

and then have to sell before it
happens, you know? That's...

That'd really break her heart.

Of course.

Hey, honey!

- Hi.
- Hi.

Emma, this looks incredible.

Thanks. I'm excited for you
to see it when it's finished.

Raymond Morris Mitchell.

Dude, it's Topher.

Wait right there.
I'm going to come down.

Topher's here.

Should have known.

So, how was skiing?

Oh, it was actually
a lot of fun.

I even beat
your dad one time once.

Once.

She's actually pretty good.

I wouldn't go that far,
but it was fun. Thank you.

Dude! Man, how are you?

Oh, I heard you're
selling your dad's boat.

This guy's dad's boat
is the cornerstone

in our community.

Another one bites the dust.

Hey, bro?

Oh, did you hear?

Mistletoe Lake Harbor's
up for sale.

The entire harbor?

Whole harbor.

The municipality's on
the verge of bankruptcy,

so they thought let's
put the harbor on the block

with the hope that some
private investor will come

and bail them out,
but then I'm thinking,

- you know, like--
- Who's got the money for that?

Not me. In fact, I mean...

You know,
I like owe people money, so.

Anyway, listen, I'm gonna get
out of here before the boss

thinks I'm slacking off.

I'll see you around.

Alright.

There's my
talented granddaughter.

Brought you some lunch.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I'd like you to meet
my new friend Reilly.

We actually met the other day.

Well, I understand
you found a place to stay.

Yes. Ray took pity on me
and let me stay on the boat.

I heard that the boat
is named after you.

You must be so incredibly proud.

Yes. That's my name.

How's the sale going?

It's progressing.

Well, keep me posted.

Grandma, I got to
show you something.

Ray, I am-- I'm so sorry.

I shouldn't have
mentioned the boat.

I wasn't thinking.

It's fine. Really. We're just--

We're all processing
it in our own way.

Yeah.

You still on for dinner tonight?

Sure.

Dad, I was doing some
research about business deals.

I knew getting you that
unlimited Wi-Fi was a mistake.

Knowledge is power, Father.

There's these things
you can put in

business deals called clauses.

Yeah. I've heard of them,
like the Santa kind.

One thing you should
know about my dad,

he loves his dad jokes.

I'm starting to notice that.

Okay.
What is wrong with dad jokes?

Considering I am a dad.

That's no excuse
for dorky humor.

Anyway, you can put
clauses and business deals

and it's like asking
for something you want.

Where you going with this, Em?

We should put a clause
in the business deal to

sell the boat that the buyer
has to move in after Christmas.

That way, we can still enter it
into the Harbor Festival.

I could always ask.

You will?!

Yes, but don't get too excited.

Okay, I'm gonna ask doesn't
mean it's gonna happen.

Yes! Just for that
I'm going to do the dishes.

Thank you.

Why don't you two retire to
the deck to finish your wine,

and if you want any dessert,

I brought a bag of
marshmallows from the store.

They're my dad's favorite.

Oh.

It's good to know.

Yeah, she's giving
away all my secrets.

- Shall we retire to the deck?
- I guess we shall.

I sure do like it here.

You do fit in really well.

Well, there's something
special about a small town.

It gives a different
authenticity that you don't get

in the city.

Sorry.

That's alright.

Do you need to respond to that?

No, no. It's fine.

It's my sister.

Oh.

So, did you ever
want to live anywhere else?

Actually, I left for the city
when I was in my twenties.

Went to an office every day.
Wore a suit.

You? A suit? No!

I know.

What did you do?

Finance. Wasn't for me.

I'm much happier
doing all the books for

the local businesses here.

I mainly get paid
in baked goods.

I wish I was joking.

And by the time
I moved back here,

the town was
almost unrecognizable.

There's jet skiers,
and we had a microbrewery

and, you know, before I learned
what a microbrewery actually was

I assumed it was a bar for mice.

Wow. I don't even know
I'm doing it anymore.

I think we need to
get you a shock collar.

Something that might help.

I think you're right.

You know, I just-- I wish
I could figure out a way to

recapture what I experienced
when I was a kid here.

Hello!

Louis! Hey!

I was just out for a walk.

Thought I'd come by
and say hello.

Hope, I'm not interrupting.

Not at all. You want to come up?

No. No, no, no.
You have company.

Hello, Reilly.

Hi.

Oh, you two know each other?

Louis is a client of mine.

She won't tell you this
because she's too modest,

but Reilly Shore is
the best home stager

I've ever worked with.

Home stager? I thought Emma said
that you were interior designer.

Well, I--

In fact, she's the reason
I'm here in Mistletoe Lake.

Is that right?

Absolutely.

Louis, what brings you
out on this night?

Well, I just thought I'd come by
and have a look at this boat

that I'm thinking of buying.

Louis is my potential buyer.

Oh.

I just have to have one more
conversation with my accountant

and I'm going to
get back to you.

No problem.

We are having a little trouble
with the engine's alternator,

but don't worry. I'll get it
all sorted before the sale.

Ah. I'm sure it'll be fine.

I do like this boat.

It's perfect for
what I'm looking for.

Anyway, I should leave you.
Nice seeing you both.

Oh, uh, Louis.

There was one thing
I wanted to ask.

Would you don't consider
taking possession of

the boat after Christmas?

My daughter has this dream
of entering the boat

into the Harbor Festival
one last time.

Well, it's just that, uh,

I've already invited my family

to come celebrate
Christmas here.

Of course, right. Yeah.

Well, let's see now.

Would you be willing
to have myself, my sister,

and her kids come
celebrate with you?

Absolutely. The whole
family's invited. Yeah.

Then great! Problem solved.

I'll take possession
after Christmas.

Alright, I'll call you tomorrow.
Reilly, let's have that lunch.

Sure.

Good night, you two.

Good night.

It's so bizarre that
you two know each other.

- Yeah.
- Hey, what a coincidence.

Crazy.

I hope I am doing the right
thing by extending the sale

'til after the holidays.

Oh, Emma will be ecstatic.

And you know,
Louis seems like a good guy.

He's not local but at least he
wants to use it for his family.

He is a good guy, right?

I mean, I don't know him
really well, but overall, yes.

I just would hate for someone to
come in and completely gut it.

Turn into something unrecognizable.

You know, having people here
to enjoy it the way we did

for so many years, it's, uh...

It's a silver lining
to have to sell, you know?

Yeah, I guess I better go
tell my daughter the good news.

- Good luck.
- Thanks.

So, you'll never believe it,
but she's really happy.

No. Really? I couldn't tell.

And we forgot about dessert.

How could we
forget about dessert?

Must've been quite
something growing up here.

I'm kind of jealous.

Wasn't there a place from
your childhood that always

felt like home?

One place.

When I was about seven years old
on Deanewood Crescent.

The house wasn't
anything special,

but it was cozy.

I hoped we'd live there forever.

Deanewood. Sounds like
something out of Pleasantville.

It kind of was.

I still remember
the day we came home

and my parents sat us down
to tell us that the house

had sold
and we were moving again.

Broke my heart.

And that year that
we were at that house,

it was my turn to
choose a Christmas destination

and I chose not to go anywhere.

We had a staycation.

It was my favorite
Christmas ever.

Yeah, nothing beats home.

Alright.

What's your middle name?

Why?

I want to know
your soap opera name.

It's the middle name
plus the place you grew up.

Do we know each other
well enough for that?

Oh, come on. I'll tell you mine
if you tell me yours.

Mildred.

I was named after my great aunt.

Actually, Mildred Deanewood.

It's a pretty
good soap opera name.

Yeah, a 1950s soap opera maybe.

Okay, your turn.

Nah, it's too embarrassing.

Wha-- Cheater!

Whoa!

Save the marshmallow!

Can I ask you
a personal question?

How is someone like you single?

How do you know I'm single?

Well, I suppose I don't.

I assumed since you were here
over the holidays by yourself.

Emma told you, didn't she?

Yeah, she did.

But to be fair, she did
hold out as long as she could,

which is about nine minutes.

It's a new record for her.

So, it's the same old story?

Married to work?

Not really. My sister is
actually the workaholic.

I was engaged until
earlier this year.

Oh.

And what happened?

If you don't mind me asking.

It's fine, uh...

Well, everyone thought
we were perfect for each other.

You know, perfect house.

Perfect car.

Perfect life.

One morning, I woke up
and realized that what looked

perfect wasn't
actually perfect at all.

We were both just playing roles

and I couldn't do it anymore.

It was tough breakup,
but in the end, it was--

It was best for both of us.

Right. Yeah, I know
all about tough breakups.

Emma's mom and I,
we're still on good terms.

Thankfully.

It's what makes
selling the boat so hard.

I mean, Emma's already
gone through the break-up,

me and her Mom,
and my biggest worry is

just letting her down again,
you know?

It's even more
beautiful at night.

She's just so talented.

She's applied to
this private high school.

You know, if she gets in
then I can at least use

the money from the boat
to pay for her tuition.

You really good dad, Ray.

Despite all the dad jokes?

Amazingly so, yes.

So, you know why they
call it Mistletoe Lake?

Because mistletoe grows wild
all around the woods here,

and the legend goes that
the tradition of kissing

under a mistletoe actually
started in this very town.

We're very proud of it.

Oh.

Well, that I can tell,
but you do know though

that that tradition of
the mistletoe started

from Greek mythology, right?

Why let the facts get
in the way of a good story?

You know if people in the town
want to take responsibility

for people kissing
over the holidays

what's the harm in that?

I'm sure there's a bunch of
mistletoe around us right now,

don't you think?

Absolutely. It's all around us.

Probably shouldn't
break tradition, should we?

Definitely not. I mean, I--

Sorry. You were saying
something?

I kind of forgot
what I was saying.

Mm.

Hi.

Finally, I've been
calling and calling.

Where have you been?

I'm just enjoying the town.

Okay, well, you will never
guess who I spoke to yesterday.

Louis.

Yes. How did you know?

Because I can tell by the shrill
excitement in your voice.

Well, he told me that
he's looking to buy a boat on

Mistletoe Lake, and he said he's
going to be doing a bunch of

other stuff, and I tried
to get it out of him,

but he wouldn't tell me,
in the meantime I'm trying to

get my flight moved up
but things are crazy

because of Christmas.
So, I told him that you would

meet him before I got there.

Why? Why would you do that?

You know I don't
like Louis' style.

If we can get the contract to
redesign and stage Louis's boat,

it'll open us up to
a slew of new opportunities.

I'm talking boats,
RVs, glamping.

Wait, glamping?

The possibilities are endless!

Tara, I'm not staging
anyone's boat. It's Christmas.

Can we just give business
a rest for a moment?

I thought you said you were
going to be looking out for

new business opportunities.

No, you said I should be looking
out for business opportunities.

Look, Louis isn't going
to need our services.

I'm sure if he buys the boat
that he's probably not even

gonna do anything to change it.

Please, Louis Edward?

What do you think?

I think the other boats in
the festival are not gonna

know what hit 'em.

You guys really raised the bar.

Oh, don't sell yourself short.

You guys are definitely
the creative brains

of the operation.

We couldn't have
done it without you.

What is it?

It's nothing.

It's just seeing
the boat like this.

Brings back a lot of memories.

We forgot to discuss what
we're going to do for the event.

That's right.
Topher sent me a message.

Apparently, we're Christmas Eve.

No pressure.

Hold on. What event?

The final components of
the competition is each boat

needs to host a social event
at the Yacht Club one evening.

So, we have to have
a party as well?

And none of you decided
to mention this to me.

We figured we should
ease you into it.

Didn't want to hit you
with it all once.

Oh, worst Airbnb ever.

I think planning
a party will be easy.

All we need to do is
figure out the theme.

Why don't we make
our theme something that

Mistletoe Lake is all about.

What'd you have in mind?

Well, what does
mistletoe stand for?

Kissing? Love?

Yes.

And heart.

So let's make
our party just that.

The Heart of Christmas.

I love it.

Alright, is there anything extra
that I need to do to get

ready for this party?

Maybe find something
decent to wear.

What's wrong with my clothes?

Well, it's not
exactly evening attire.

I could take you shopping,
if you'd like.

I hate clothes shopping.

Clearly.

Hello again.

Hi there. How's your stay
going out on the water?

It's lovely.

This is such a beautiful town.

It is indeed.

Listen, Emmaline. I'm--

I'm so sorry that I was
so blase about the--

- Boat?
- Yes.

I know the decision to sell
has been a difficult one

for you and your family.

Don't be silly.
I'm happy that Ray has decided

to enter the boat in
the festival one last time.

We haven't participated
in that in years.

If I were a gambling woman,

I'd bet that you have a lot
to do with that decision.

Me? No. I think all
the credit should go to Emma.

Still, I haven't seen my son

so happy as he is
when he's with you.

So, where do we start?

Oh, well, we need to find
an outfit that perfectly matches

your personality,
stylish, but not too slick,

with a lot of character.

Sounds like me, alright.

Alright, why don't
you park yourself there,

and I will go pull some looks.

You don't think I'm capable
of making selections myself?

Probably not, but sure.
Knock yourself out.

Excuse me. I'm with her,

because this needs
a lot of help.

but also the style of which

Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you very much.

So, do you like karaoke?

I like listening to karaoke,

but I am not
getting up on that stage.

Oh, I feel exactly the same way.

We are purely
audience members tonight.

Deal.

I'm sorry,
is that that Ray Mitchell

here in our bar tonight?

Who wants to hear
Ray Mitchell sing

the first song of the night?!

Me, too.
Get up here, Ray Mitchell.

I don't think we're
getting out of this one.

No, no, no, no.
You're not getting out of this.

- Nobody asked me to sing.
- Too late to bail on me now.

Wait. Ray, Ray!

Thanks.

I had no idea
you had that in there.

Neither did I.

This is the kind of thing
you don't often get

back in the city.

What?

It's nothing, it's just you
place such value on authenticity

yet your job...

Isn't home staging kind of
the epitome of superficiality?

You know, you're creating
the illusion of a home

where people
don't actually live.

I'm sorry.
I don't mean to be rude.

Look, I clearly don't know
what I'm talking about.

No, it's fine.

Home staging
isn't where I started.

I got into interior designs
so that I could create homes

for people. give them an
experience that I didn't

have in my own life,

but when the trend of
home staging took off,

I mean, I saw an opportunity
and I went with it.

But if it doesn't
make you happy,

why don't you try
doing something else?

I thought about it,

but my sister and I
are in a little bit

over our heads up moment.

Our business is doing well,

but we've got
some serious overhead.

Just need a couple
more big contracts

to put us in the clear.

Right.

- Thank you.

Oh, it's Emma. Be right back.

Of course.

Hey, honey. Is everything okay?

Dad, you're never going
to believe what happened.

Well, well, well. That was
quite the concert you gave us.

May I?

Sure.

You're kidding.

Well, I've got good news.

I've decided to buy the boat.

Congratulations.

I want you to
renovate it for me.

Renovate it?

Yes, completely.

Louis, I don't know.

Boats aren't my
area of expertise

Nonsense.
You're a miracle worker.

See, from a resale point of view,

I figure I'll get a much
better return on my investment

if I renovate it first.

You're going to resell it?

Yes.

Look, don't get me wrong.

The boat is nice and everything,

but it's-- it's totally dated.

I mean, I figure if I modernize
it with your help, of course,

I'll probably double
my money when I flip it.

I thought you wanted
by the boat so that

your family could enjoy it.

I do for this year.

And then once
the holidays are over,

I'm just going to sell it
to the highest bidder.

No, don't worry about it, okay?

I will figure something out.

I promise.

Is it bad luck to rename a boat?

Rename?

Forget it.
I mean, I don't even care.

I'm not even superstitious.

Let's meet tomorrow.

There's so much happening.

I got to tell you about
everything, alright?

Don't sing too many
songs tonight.

Okay. Yeah.

I'll see you soon.

I had a really
good time tonight.

Me, too.

I--

You okay?

Yeah, I just--

I'm moving too fast.

No, no. Ray.

No, I'm sorry. I--

I don't mean to.

It's just that I, uh...

I really like you.

And whenever I'm around you,

I start acting like a teenager,

in a good way.

I feel exactly the same way.

- So anyway--
- Listen, Ray--

- You go. You go.
- No, please. Please.

What were you going to say?

So, Emma called me at the bar

and she got contacted by
the Grafton Arts Academy.

And?

She got in.

No, she did?!

That's amazing news, Ray.

You must be so proud.

I'm so proud of her
and she did this all on her own.

I don't want to think about
how much it's going to cost.

The sale on the boat
has to go through.

I could also just
start selling my organs.

Maybe I can convince Louis to
let us visit every Christmas.

That way, you know,
it's not completely lost.

What were you going to say?

Nothing.

It can wait for another day.

- You sure?
- Yes.

Congratulate Emma for me.

She deserves it.

I will.

- Good night.
- Good night.

I kind of went nuts doing
research on the internet

last night.

Oh, that reminds me.

What do you think about
changing the boat's name to

the Louis-itania,
like the Lusitania,

except with Louis,
because that's my name.

I get it.

You know,
the Lusitania was torpedoed.

Right, I did know that. Buzzkill.

Why don't you go all out
and call it Titanic?

I thought of that,

but you don't think
it would be too,

"Hey, look at me.
I called my boat Titanic."

Louis, I'm sorry.

I can't be a part of this.

The boat is a significant
part of a family's history.

I can't be involved in
taking advantage of someone's

difficult financial situation
in order to turn a profit.

Hm.

Well, I respect your decision.

But I don't think you're looking
at this from all perspectives.

I'm not taking
advantage of anybody.

Quite the contrary.
I'm helping this family by

taking the burden of
this boat off of their hands.

I mean, the guy is
selling the boat.

If I don't buy it,
somebody else will.

What difference does it?

It makes a difference to me.

I hope you'll understand.

For what it's worth,

I hope you'll reconsider
gutting and redesigning it.

Not only does it have a history,
but you will be hard-pressed

to ever do better than
the craftsmanship that's been

put into it.

I admire your principles,

but I think you
should reconsider.

A deal like this could set up
you and your business for life.

with all due respect,
I don't think redesigning

one boat will
set me up for life.

I'm not talking about the boat.

You know, the entire
harbor is for sale, right?

Yes,

I mean, unfortunately,
I don't have that kind of money.

But I just got off
a conference call

with a group of investors.

They want to come in
and totally revamp the harbor,

put in a resort,
excavate the lake to

bring in bigger boats,
more waterfront restaurants.

Even a big-box store.

Who would want to do that?

Who'd want a big box store?

I don't know, people who
like big boxes I guess.

Louis, if you do all that,
then Mistletoe Lake won't even

feel like
cottage country anymore.

Cottage country is passe.

You know what people want?

They want South Beach.

If people want South Beach then
they should go to South Beach.

Reilly, you miss 100% of
the shots that you don't take.

I want you to be part of this.

I don't want you
to miss the boat.

Get it? Boat?

Because we're
talking about a boat.

Let's have some lunch.

Sorry, I let myself in.

I had to take a look
at the engine again.

Don't be silly.

It's your boat. Remember?

Not for long.

Are you all right?

Yeah. I spent the morning
online shopping for alternators.

Turns out even the used ones
are pretty expensive.

Good thing you have a buyer.

Yeah, it is.

Probably gonna work out
pretty well for you too, huh?

Hm?

How's your friend Louis,
by the way?

I know you had lunch with him.

Small town.
There are no secrets.

I wasn't meeting
with Louis in secret.

What were you talking about?

See, after I left
here last night

I did a little
research on Louis.

Big real estate guy.

Likes to gut houses,
and then he flips them.

That's the work that you
used to do for him, right?

Yes.

He doesn't want this boat
for his family, does he?

No.

Do you know that he wanted
to redo the whole boat?

I just found out
last night, I swear.

I wanted to tell you,
I just didn't know how.

You were so happy
about Emma and the school.

I hope he gives you
a good commission at least.

I'm not going to work with him.

It's funny. I find that
a little bit hard to believe

considering that you've had a
past with the guy,

you've worked with him,
and then suddenly you end up

in this small town,
the same time for Christmas.

And actually,
now that I think about it,

the first day that I saw him

is the same day that I met you.

I know how it looks.

You were the one who
inspired him to come

to Mistletoe Lake, right?

That's what he said.

So how is this
supposed to look, Reilly?

I agree. It looks suspicious,

but you have to believe me, I--

How?

I had lunch with
Louis today to tell him

that I wasn't interested in
helping him change this boat.

And for what it's worth,

I did everything in my power
to convince him otherwise.

I know I've only been
here for a few days,

but I have fallen
in love with it and you--

What?

You.

As well, if you must know.

I'm so sorry.

I should never have
accused you of that.

You've done nothing but try
to help since you got here.

Look, it's been
such a stressful time.

That is not your fault.

Can you forgive me?

Of course.

But there's something
else I have to--

I-- Just give me one minute.

Tara, I'm sorry.
I really can't talk right now.

I've got a surprise for you.
Look to your left.

Hey, Sis!

Hi.

Hi! I'm Reilly's sister, Tara.

Oh, yeah, once we give this
thing a complete overhaul,

this resale value
is gonna skyrocket.

Hey, how was your
lunch with Louis?

Exciting, isn't it?

Tara! I--

You know, this harbor
is gonna look so different

and Louis says he's already got
some of the money lined up.

What?

Oh, um, the guy
who's buying her boat,

he's putting together
a whole group of investors to

buy out the entire
Mistletoe Lake Harbor.

Isn't it cool?

Anyways, I'm gonna go
check the rest of it out.

It was so nice to meet you.

Yeah.

What was all that about?

It's a family boat.

He's having a tough
time selling it.

So if he doesn't want to
sell it, why is he selling it?

Because it's complicated, Tara.

I mean, sometimes life
is complicated.

That boat is their home.

This town is their home.

Okay, why are you so upset?

What are you even doing here?

I mean, weren't you supposed
to get into town tomorrow?

I managed to get
an earlier flight

and I thought I'd surprise you.

I thought you'd be
happy to see me.

Oh, please. You just came here

because you thought you
saw a business opportunity.

Yes, a huge business
opportunity for us.

This could put us in
the black for good.

Where are you staying?

Sunset Inn.
It's pretty nice actually.

I thought they were booked up.

Not anymore.
I got you a room, too.

I just-- I just need a minute
to process everything, okay?

Just go back to the motel.
I'll meet you there.

Okay.

Are you sure you're okay?

No.

Emma?

Are you okay?

My dad got a hold
of Louis this morning

and says he wants to sell
the boat right away as is.

Louis agreed, but asked
if we could pull out of

the competition
so he could enter himself.

He did what?!

to sign the deal.

I just know this is my fault
because I got into the school.

No, no, no.

This is not your fault at all.

Listen, your dad is
so proud of you.

He would do anything for you.

Hey, you got into
Grafton Arts Academy.

That is an incredible accomplishment.

You deserve it.
You are so talented, Emma.

Thank you.

I'm so sorry I got you and your
dad in all this trouble. I--

You haven't
caused us any trouble.

You've already made it
an unforgettable Christmas.

I'm sorry.

Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad.

I can't wait for
you guys to get here.

Is everything okay
with your flight?

No, honey.

I hope you're ready
for some bad news.

We're snowed in here.

They're canceling
all the flights.

They said the earliest
we're going to get out of here

is this evening.

So sorry, honey, but hey,
it's just a few more hours.

Yeah.

It's okay. Just call me
when you get any updates.

Don't worry, Pumpkin.
We'll get there.

We never missed
a Christmas together.

I know it's fine.

I'll see you guys tomorrow.

Alright now. Mwah.

Deanewood.

Why are you waking me up?
Because it's Christmas Eve,

or because you really
gotta just learn to text?

I've made a decision and I need
to talk to you about it

because it affects
the both of us.

Okay.

I'm quitting
the home staging business.

What? Have you slept?

From now on I want to focus
on helping people create homes.

Is this about Ray?

You're in love with him,
aren't you?

Gosh, Rei.
I've been a horrible sister.

This whole time I've just been
thinking about business.

It's not your fault. It's mine.

I haven't been honest with
myself lately about what I want

out of life, but it ends now.

But you are a horrible sister?

Are you okay with this?

Of course,
I just want you to be happy.

Louis and that big contract.

Don't we need
something like that?

Yes, but we will figure
something else out.

We always have.

As long as you never
lose your passion,

we'll always be fine.

I love you. Thank you.

I love you, too. Ditto.

- Okay.
- Get out of here.

Go to sleep.

I need to talk to you.

This boat is Deanewood.

The place that I love so much
growing up, the one that I lost.

Ray, The Emma is that
kind of place for you.

I can't stand by
and watch you lose this boat

without you having one
last proper Christmas here.

I can't.

I know that you think
that I betrayed you

and you don't need to
forgive me if you don't want to,

but can you please
just do one thing?

Don't pull the boat out of
the Christmas Harbor Festival.

For your family.

As far as the boat is concerned,

you'll have to talk to Louis.

He's the rightful owner.

We just signed the paperwork.

Boat sold.

But I thought you wanted
to preserve the boat.

Can't tell Louis what he can
and can't do with the boat.

He can scuttle it and let it
sink to the bottom of the lake

if he wants.

Like the Lusitania?
Nah, I'm not going to do that.

And besides,
what difference does it make?

Sounds like this
whole town's going to

be completely
unrecognizable anyway.

Louis as the new
rightful owner of this boat,

would you be willing to let me
fulfill my promise to Emma

for her and her family to
have one last Christmas here?

You can take possession exactly
one minute past midnight,

after the festival.

The thing is is that
I really wanted to

enter the boat myself this year.

But I guess I can't
refuse you, Reilly,

after all you've done,
so fine 12:01 it is.

Christmas.

Thank you.

Wait, I have another request.

I don't want the boat
part of the festival

unless you're part
of it as well.

I love the boat.

but the only reason
I do is because

it means spending time
with you and Grandma.

The Harbor Festival's
meaningless unless you're there.

Promise you'll come?

Promise.

Enjoying your evening?

Reilly. Yes, yes.

Family's loving it.

I-- I have to say,

I feel somewhat awkward about

what happened on
the boat yesterday.

The last thing I would
want is for anyone to

think that I'm the bad guy.

No, Louis, I'm sure
no one feels that way.

I hope not.

I mean, after all,
it's not personal.

It's just business, right?

I love this town.

It just feels so...

Authentic.

Yes, exactly.

Authentic.

Let's get you a drink, shall we?

Please. Yes.

Excuse me.

I feel like
Grandpa's here with us.

Don't you, Grandma?

I do.

You know, I think
I owe you both an apology.

I've been so preoccupied with
trying to do what I thought was

best for the family.

Despite it all,

I still lost the boat.

You didn't lose the boat.

None of this is your fault.

The most important thing,
more important than anything

else in the world,

is that we three are together.

That's what your father
would have wanted.

More than anything.

I love you.

I love you, too. Both of you.

I think you better
see about your date.

- Hi.
- Hi.

This is gorgeous.

And so are you.

You're looking
very handsome yourself.

I had a good stylist.

There is one thing that
complete the look though.

You found my earring. Where?

It was on the boat.

Of course.

But I think you should keep it

as a memento.

I am so sorry about
the things that I said.

Louis told me everything.
You weren't involved with

buying the boat
or any of his business plan.

I should not have
reacted the way I did.

It's okay. You were going
through a tough time.

Still, it's no excuse.

Without you we wouldn't be here

enjoying this last
beautiful Christmas.

I think my dad
would be really proud.

Hi, honey!

Mom! Dad!

You guys made it!

Hey, darling.

Hi, Tara.

You remember my sister, Tara?

How could I forget?

And these are my parents.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Likewise.

Hi.

Such a beautiful
town you live in.

It's the hot springs, isn't it?

I'm sorry?

It's the hot springs
under the lake that

keeps it from
freezing over, right?

That's right.

Wait, Dad,
how did you find that out?

He Googled it.

Oh!

Ray, I just want to apologize
if I came off as insensitive

the other day,
I want you to know I am not

the type of person that
would come between my sister

and the person
she's in love with.

You know what? Why don't we go
get some drinks, shall we?

Just right this way.

It was nice to meet you.

Maybe I'll even track down Louis
while I'm at it.

Yeah.

The guy you're
in love with, huh?

I'm afraid so yes.

I guess we're in the same boat.

Dad joke.

It was right--
It was right there.

Do you want to dance?

I thought you were
never going to ask.

Are you going to be okay?

I think so.

I just can't believe all this
is going to be gone soon.

You don't know that yet.

Yes, I do.

It's been slipping
away for a while.

This is some party.

Thank you again for inviting me
to celebrate with you.

And The Emma, huh?

Sure is exquisite.

Well, it's going to
be your boat soon.

You can have as many
parties as you want on it.

That'd be nice.

But I'm not going to be
the one to host those parties.

After the experience
I've had here in Mistletoe Lake

I couldn't live with myself
if I took this boat away from

you and your family.

Besides, this is your home.

It should stay
exactly the way it is.

Can't put a price
on authenticity.

Same thing goes for
the entire harbor by the way,

because I'm canceling that deal.

Nobody's gentrifying this place.

Louis, are you sure?

I'm positive.

I don't do anything halfway.

Look, the warmth
I felt here tonight,

That's the best Christmas gift
I could have ever got.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Speaking of Christmas gifts.

Wait right here, okay?
Right here.

Ray!

Did you have
something to do this?

We had a chat,
but I never expected this.

Brand new alternator.

As I recall, you need one.

Yes. I do.

Merry Christmas.
Now, if we could only find

someone to install it for us.

Let's do it.

Let's do it.

- Lead the way.
- Alright.

Okay, try it now!

Hey! It works!

Nicely done.

You know what I'm thinking now?

Since you got it started,
you might as well take it

out for a spin on the lake.

I mean, it is the Christmas
Harbor Festival after all.

It's true.

- I'll go get Emma.
- Alright.

Let's do it.

Dad! Guess what?!

Topher said
the Harbor Festival Committee

voted early and that we won!

We won!

Yes, and the prize is that
they've decided to let us

keep the boat moored
in the harbor for free

for as long as we like.

Really?

They said The Emma is
a historical part of

Mistletoe Lake
and should be preserved.

Dad, don't worry about
Grafton Arts Academy.

I've already decided
I'm not going.

Now that you're not
selling the boat,

we won't have
the money for tuition.

Don't even talk like that.
You're going.

But Dad--

Em. You're going.

But how?

It's Christmas, honey.

A miracle will happen.

Hello?

Yes, it is.

Emma Mitchell is my daughter.

You're not bothering me at all.

Why was there something
wrong with her application?

I completely understand.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas to you, too.

It was the school.

They said, um...

They said you have
a full scholarship.

A full scholarship?!

It's something they only give
out to a select few students

that show
extraordinary potential,

they announce it
annually on Christmas Eve.

I'm so proud of you.

Excuse me, everyone.

Could I have your attention?

I think there's
something really important

that we've all forgotten.

Christmas mistle-toast
right out of the oven.

Come on in, help yourself.

Are you two going to
take the boat for a spin?

Um...

Yeah, we are.

Do you want to come with us?

I do, but someone better
save us some mistle-toast.

You kids have fun.

This boat doesn't feel like home

just because of
the way you decorated it.

From the moment
you step foot on it,

your very presence made
it feel like it was home.

I feel the exact same way.

My whole life, I have craved

this feeling of being at home.

From the moment I met you
and Emma, I knew that I was.

You're not bad for a city girl.

Well, a country boy like you
can do a whole lot worse.

By the way,
what is your middle name?

Do we really know each other
well enough for that?

I think we do.

Ignatius.

Ignatius?

You see why I didn't
want to tell you.

I don't know.

Iggy Mistletoe is a pretty
stellar soap opera name.

Or a really bad 80s cover band.

Yeah, I should steer the boat.
