All language subtitles for Christmas.Of.Yes.2023.WBRip

Yeah.

I will never understand people
who willingly wake up

at the crack of dawn. I mean,
masochist, all of them.

Good morning, Amy.

Case in point.

Heard that.

Still a little jet-lagged,
I see.

Well, you think you'd be used to it by now

since we travel for a living,

but he just seems to be getting grumpier.

But you're very cute

when you're grumpy.

Here. This might help.

Thank you. You are an angel.

A masochistic angel, apparently.

Ask her.

Oh, uh, Ames.

You know, you're
my favorite sister, right?

Spit it out.

Well, since Jacques and I

are basically nomads
with no home of our own,

we have nowhere to throw

our First-Annual
Ugly Christmas Sweater Soiree

as a married couple.

So we were thinking that,

uh, maybe we could host it here?

Sorry, guys, but no.

If this acquisition goes through today,

work is going to be nuts.
And I just can't have

a bunch of random people
in my house right now.

Oh, maybe you can rent
the clubhouse instead.

- Oh.
- No.

So glad you guys decided to
spend Christmas in Charlotte.

It'll be nice to spend
the holidays together.

Wish me luck.

- Good luck.
- Don't even need it.

I told you she'd say no.

Good morning, Amy.

Hopefully it is a good morning.

We should find out the news soon.

I have a good feeling about it.

Last night, I had a dream
about the press release,

"Charlotte
Digital Marketing Firm

acquired by global media powerhouse."

Oh, I like the sound of that.

Cheers to you for keeping us
all so well-caffeinated.

Your coffee is our secret weapon.

Wow. That tastes like
straight-up Christmas.

I'm obsessed.

Thank you.

It's actually a new blend.

I don't know how you have time
to do all the things you do.

- Good time management.
- Mmm-hmm.

- And lots of coffee.
- Ah.

I've actually been
meaning to ask you something.

- Oh, okay. Shoot.
- You know how

I've always admired your work ethic

and how you've risen

through the company so quickly
and pretty much made

this worthy what it is today.

Oh, I don't know about that.

Truly, I dream of having a
career trajectory like yours,

which is why I'd love to take
you to lunch sometime

and pick your brain.

Get some advice
about moving up the ladder.

Thank you. I'm flattered.

Especially since your career trajectory
is just as impressive.

That means a lot coming from you.

Well, it's true,
but it is crazy right now.

So maybe rain check the lunch
till after the New Year?

That'd be great.

- Amy, do you have a minute?
- Of course.

Morning, Winnie.

Hi, Robin.

Shall we sit?

Right.

So does this mean that we have some news?

It does.
Good news and bad news.

Okay. Hit me.

The good news is
the acquisition went through.

Yes.

Bizworthy is now owned

by one of the fastest-growing
media companies in the world.

Yes. Yes. Yes.
Listen, I knew we could do it.

- Mmm-hmm.
- We did it.

We actually did it.

Oh, yes.
Uh, what's the bad news?

They're getting rid of your position.

What?

I fought as hard as I could to keep you,

but Atomica Global
wants to streamline the system

and have a few of their own
absorb your responsibilities.

Oh.

Hmm, that is bad news.

I told them there is no way
that three of their people

could do what my one chief
marketing officer does.

But sadly,

I have a very little sway
during this transition.

I understand.

Listen, if it was anyone else,

I would be worried.

But you, lady,

you are gonna be just fine.

Yup. I'll be fine.

Okay.

Yes. I'll be fine.

Okay.

Someone's hitting happy hour pretty hard.

This is not a happy hour.

I helped build Bizworthy
from the ground up.

Somebody shouldn't work so hard.

I really thought that I was
gonna be the CEO one day,

but here I am, blindsided,

and just when the company
is about to take off.

I'm sorry, Amy.

That must be hard.

Yeah. But did you really
like that job though?

- I mean...
- Of course I did.

I love work.

Only thing in your life
you have time to love.

- Phil.
- What?

- Be nice.
- Okay. Sue me.

I enjoy working.
Work gives me a challenge.

And you know
I thrive off of a challenge.

But no one hires at the end of the year.

So there's basically nothing for
me to do during the holidays.

Except, you know, enjoy them?

Oh.

Oh, great.

I'm breaking out into a stress rash

just thinking of the nothingness
that I'm going to do.

Look, Ames,

I love you, but seriously,

you gotta learn to chill.

I'm not like you guys,

spontaneous and go-with-the-flow.

I'm not gonna meet the love of my life

windsurfing in the Dominican Republic

or get married under
a waterfall in Costa Rica

and start an adventure travel company.

More exciting things happen
to you guys in a day

than me in a year.

Thank you.

Well, that's because we say yes.

To what?

Everything.

Well, except the sketchy stuff,

like free milkshakes in Thailand.

- Yes.
- Trust.

But base jumping, swimming with sharks,

and, uh, marry the love of your life

after only knowing him for a month,

we say yes.

- Oh, come on.
- What? You said you wanted a challenge,

and I have one for you.

Say yes to everything this Christmas.

- Say what?
- Yes.

Yes to new experiences.
Yes to invitations.

Yes to a date, girl.

No.

Yeah. I mean, she's right.
What was I thinking?

There's no way she'd be able
to stick to it anyway.

- No, never...
- She couldn't do it.

Oh, okay.
I see what you're doing.

You're trying to reverse
psychology me now, huh?

Look, all I'm saying is, "no"
is, like, your favorite word.

- Hmm.
- No to parties,

no to dates, no to trips.

I mean, remember
when you said no to coming

to that gala with me and I met Beyoncé?

You, Ames, you could have met Beyoncé,

but you're a "no" girl.

You'd fail this challenge so hard.

Hmm. I just have
to say yes till Christmas?

Just two weeks of yes.
That's it.

Besides, it could be a good distraction.

Take your mind off the job thing,

at least until after the holidays.

This might be the whiskey talking,

but okay.

I accept your challenge.

Yes.

I will say

yes to everything till Christmas.

- Cheers to that.
- Amazing.

Well, in my case,

there is a free improv show tonight.

- Wanna come with us?
- To an improv show?

No, absolutely not.

- There's no way I'm...
- Excuse me?

saying no to that.

- She's gonna love it.
- Yes.

Why...

is there...

cheese...

in my shoe?

I don't get it.
It's not funny.

Come on.

Oh. Uh...

Thank you, guys.
You are too kind.

That was really not great.

Okay. All right.
Yeah, whatever.

For our last scene, we need one of you

to join us up here on stage.

So, can we get a volunteer?

- Right here.
- Right here.

- Right here. Yup.
- Right here. Yup.

Ooh, spotlight right on you.

- Yes. Yes.
- She said yes.

Woo-hoo!

Why did I agree to say yes to everything?

So what's your name?

Uh, Amy Bell.

Everybody, give a big hey for Amy Bell.

Woo! Yeah!

All right, Amy, with your help,

we're gonna play a
little game called Ding Dong.

So you're gonna give us
a few details about your day.

We're gonna play out that day.

When we get something right,

you say ding.

And when we get
something wrong, you say dong.

You got it?

I guess.

Okay. All right, Zari.
Take it away.

Can you tell us
three things about your day?

Uh, well, I brought coffee
to my coworkers,

I got fired, came here.

Oh, uh,

it's kind of hard making jokes
about somebody who got fired,

but hey, we'll give it a go. Yeah.

Good morning, everybody.
Guess what?

I brought coffee for the whole office.

Dong.

I don't sound like that.

And I definitely don't walk like that.

Oh, okay. Okay. Okay.
Reset. Reset. Reset.

Reset. That was...
That was a quick dong.

Morning, boss.
I made you some coffee.

I appreciate it.

You know I can't refuse good coffee.

This is disgusting.

Do we really pay you to make this trash?

You don't pay me.
I'm an intern.

Dong.

The coffee was amazing,
and I'm not an intern.

Okay. Okay. All right.
All right. Reset. Reset.

- Come on. Come on. Come on.
- Okay. Let's go.

Really?

Not a single ding or even a tiny laugh,

- a little smile? I mean...
- It's not funny.

Okay. Okay. Excuse me, boss.

- Do you have a minute?
- Probably not.

We'll get donged long before then, bro.

- Dong.
- See?

Hey, Amy,
It's really inappropriate,

how much you say dong in the workplace.

- Dong.
- All right. You know what?

You're fired, bro.

- Dong.
- You're fired, dude.

- Dong.
- You're all fired.

- That was humiliating.
- It wasn't that bad.

I mean, it was funny in, like,

watching a train wreck, kind of, funny.

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it,

'cause this
Christmas of Yes is over.

Wow. You seriously
can't last one whole day, huh?

It's a dumb challenge.

Hurry up.
I will leave you.

You can't fail unless you quit.

Well, have you ever quit
anything in your entire life?

- No.
- Do you wanna start now?

- Oh, hi, Amy.
- Hi.

Thank you for being such a good sport.

Yeah. Thanks, Amy.

Even though you clearly
weren't in the mood to laugh,

but I get it.
It's a rough day.

Oh, I would've laughed

if what you did was actually funny.

Oh, it's kind of hard to be funny

when you can't go more than five seconds

without someone cutting you off.

I was just playing by your rule.

No, no, no. It's all good.

Improv just isn't for some people.

Like, people without a sense of humor.

Oh, I have a sense of humor.

I just prefer things
like standup or sketch comedy.

Jokes are better when
they're planned ahead of time.

- Oh, really?
- Is this just me

- or is this kind of hot?
- I can't look away.

So you're saying that
you don't laugh at anything

unless it's been written
or practiced in advance?

- No.
- I've never seen Nico so annoyed.

Oh, well, she kind of has
that effect on people, so.

- I'm saying...
- I like it.

that I don't laugh
at things that aren't funny.

Amy, you free tomorrow?

- Why?
- Any chance you'd like

to come and wrap presents

for the theater's toy drive?

It's for the children's
hospital where we work

and we're a little shorthanded.

Sorry, I'm busy.

But I can move some things around.

What time?

9:00 a.m.

Great.

- 9:00 a.m.
- Yes.

"But I can move some things around."

- It's for the children.
- Whatever, man.

- It's for the children.
- It's Christmas.

Woo.

What if I make an inappropriate joke

at the wrong time?
I mean, you know

how I'm nervous and...

- You just have to be yourself.
- You remember what I said

to your parents that one time?

Joke about that guy at the bar.

I mean, why would
I even say that?

That doesn't make any sense.

It's okay. It's okay.

Yeah. I need you to do the thing.

Okay.

Okay. Close your eyes.

Respirar.

Now look at me.

It's gonna be okay.

- Better?
- Better.

Good.

- I don't know why I'm anxious.
- Why do you guys look so nice?

Ah, I could say the same thing about you.

Aren't you supposed to be fun-employed?

I have to go wrap presents
for children, remember?

Oh, in pumps and a power suit.

Just because I'm fun-employed

doesn't mean
I have to look like it.

Even if I am wrapping presents
in a dingy theater.

Isn't it nice how you're Christmas of Yes

is making you more
of an altruistic person?

Hey, I would've said yes regardless.

I love giving back.

When I have the time.

Speaking of time,

have fun doing whatever fancy thing

you guys are doing today.

I know.

I need you to do the thing again.

Okay. Everybody, just a reminder,

my shift starts at 3:00, so we'll need

all of these presents wrapped before then.

So get wrapping.

Amy, glad you could make it.

- Happy to help.
- What's up, Amy Bell?

I see that you're dressed
for the job that you want,

but not the job that you actually have.

Mmm-hmm. At least
I got dressed this morning.

What did you do?
Roll out of bed?

Actually, yes, I did.

Hardly slept last night

because of how bad our final scene went.

- I wonder why.
- Okay.

Okay. I'm sorry.
I ruined your skit. Okay?

I was having a bad day, and obviously

improv is not my thing.

Obviously.

All right. Hey, hey, don't worry about it.

You know what?
It was pretty cool

of you to volunteer anyway.

Okay, Amy. Here's your cart.

Just a reminder, wrap
all these things up nicely.

They're for the children in the hospital.

- Of course.
- Luckily, you don't need

a sense of humor to wrap presents.

Oh, so you might actually be good at this.

I like you. I like her.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- I like her.

- Okay.
- Just for the record,

I am very good at wrapping presents.

- Oh, really?
- Mmm-hmm.

Maybe you should do less talking

and more wrapping then.

Okay.

Challenge accepted.

Sounds like we have a good old
wrap battle on our hands.

Oh, it wouldn't be a battle.
I would destroy you.

Oh, really?
Is that what you think?

- That's what I know.
- Okay. All right, bet.

Z, you be the judge.

I'll try not to let
this power go to my head.

I hope you're not a sore loser.

You know what?

Why don't we up the stakes a little?

Loser buys coffee.

Oh.

Deal.

Okay.

Strong grip.

On your mark.

Get set, wrap!

Do you know how to put a bow on?

Yeah.

You think you would know how to do that.

I do know how to do that.

Time's up.

Judgment time.

Hmm. This is tough.

- Mmm-hmm.
- Oh, they're so different.

Amy, yours are perfection.

Thank you.

Nico.

- Yours are cute.
- Uh-huh.

You're totally giving me artsy vibes.

Uh-huh.
Like they got a little bit

- more charm to them, right?
- Yeah.

It's kinda like
Santa's elves wrapped them

and not some corporate machine.

Elves wrap perfectly.

- That's literally their job.
- But there's no character.

Okay. Okay.
I've made my decision.

There can be only
one winner of this battle,

and the winner of this battle is clearly...

Let 'em know. Let 'em know.

Amy.

- Are you serious?
- Yes. That's what I'm talking about.

- Mmm-hmm.
- Z, I mean, look...

I mean, mine we're wrapped
with way more love

and creativity.
Look at the snowman.

- Whoa.
- Oh, my gosh.

You are a sore loser.

- Okay.
- I'm...

- Fine.
- I'm just gonna go.

Fine. I can admit that yours were...

yours were more professionally wrapped.

Thank you.

And okay, fine.
I will admit that yours

have this certain...
rustic charm.

Thank you. Thank you.

All right. All right.
A deal's a deal.

Let me buy you that coffee.

No.

Beating you is enough of a prize for me.

Plus, I'm a little bit of a coffee snob.

I don't drink chain store coffee.

I roast my own.

Oh, excuse me.

It's not poisoned.

I promise.

Hmm, still, I'mma let you drink first.

Hmm.

Mmm-hmm.

See?

Just coffee.

Okay.

Just coffee.

Excuse me. Sorry.

Oh, okay.
That was kind of funny.

Oh, my gosh. Thank goodness.

The decider of all things comedy

has deigned me as kind of funny.

Oh, you are welcome.

So you really roasted
these coffee beans yourself?

Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
It's a fresh batch, actually.

So the flavors should be
fully developed by now.

Hmm. This is pretty good.

- Really good, actually.
- Hmm.

I think this might be the second best

cup of coffee I ever had.

Second? Okay.

What was your best
cup of coffee you ever had?

Just simple drip coffee from this cafe

in Brooklyn a few years ago.

I mean, it was so velvety and rich

with notes of butterscotch.

Oh. Ah.

I still think about that coffee sometimes.

Hmm, second.

Interesting.

Ah, you're not used
to coming in second, are you?

Should I have lied and said that,

"It was the best cup
of coffee I ever had"?

Oh, no, no, no.
I like a challenge.

Okay. All right.

Hey, I'm sorry, by the way,
about your job.

And right before Christmas, too.

Thanks. Yeah. Sucks.

I'm gonna spend the rest
of the day scouring job sites

and rewriting my whole career plan.

You have a career plan?

In writing. Well, PowerPoint.

That's intense.

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Yeah, sure. But I mean,

if you have your whole life mapped out,

how will you know when to take a detour?

- A detour?
- Yeah.

If you stay on the same path forever,

you might miss out
on those moments in life

that make you look back and think, "Wow,

my life was one heck of a ride."

Hmm. See, I think
I'm gonna feel that way

once I accomplish everything on my list.

- Okay.
- Hey, guys. Time to load up.

It was good. That was good.

Hmm.

So, uh, what's your thing?

You just do Improv?

Nah, that's just a fun hobby.

In real life, I am a teacher.

Oh, so not unemployed,
as the outfit implies.

Just on Christmas break?

Uh-huh. Yeah.
No, don't get it twisted now.

I am a gainfully
employed adult with a pension

- and good credit.
- Oh, a pension, huh?

And good credit.

Okay. I must say,

my first impression of you
was a little off.

Let me guess, you teach English?

Dong.

That felt good.

I, um...
I teach math and science

and, uh, I'd love to incorporate
some more computer skills,

'cause I'm a bit of a tech nerd, but...

- Mmm-hmm.
- we only have one computer

- for the whole class.
- Seriously?

Yeah.

Under-resourced school.

One day, I, uh...

I wanna raise enough money

to buy computers for the whole class.

Hmm.

What's stopping you?

From what?

Raising the money.

Uh, I don't know.

I guess I never thought about how
to tackle something like that.

Oh, it's easy.

You just have to break it down

into actionable steps, you know?

It's like a dance.

When you watch a choreographed dance,

it seems like this big piece.

Actually, that's not how you learn it.

When you learn it,
you learn it step by step.

Ooh, the coffee just kicked in.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

I'll bite.

What do you suggest?

Well, one easy way to raise money

is to sell product, you know?

Something people can buy
as a gift, for instance.

Okay. I mean, hypothetically,
if I tried it,

what would I sell? Cookies?

Calm down, Girl Scout.

A grown man selling cookies?

Uh-uh, you gotta find something else.

Hmm. Okay.

What can we sell?
What can we sell?

What can we...

We could sell your coffee.

Excuse me. We?

I mean, you clearly have some free time

during this Christmas, right?

What if you roast your coffee
for my fundraiser?

Let me get this straight.

It's less than two weeks till Christmas,

and you want me to roast enough coffee

to fund computers for your whole class?

Even if we could raise enough

for just a couple of computers,

that would be the best gift

that I could give my students.

Look, your coffee is great.

You know what?
It's actually incredible.

And I think it would sell really well.

What do you say?

- I don't think...
- Will you help me

raise money for the kids?

It's for the kids.

- Yes.
- Yes!

- For the kids.
- Yes, for the kids.

This is great.

Thank you. Thank you.

Oh, it's a reindeer?
I see it now.

Oh, we're missing the star.

- It wasn't them.
- They said we may not

- hear back for a week or two.
- Okay. Be honest,

did I blow the interview?

Because I was so nervous.

Honey, you were great.

And if we weren't right, then this one

wasn't the right one for us.

- Right?
- Yeah.

It'll happen when the timing's right.

I need your noses.

I bet you did the edge pieces
first, didn't you?

Ugh, it doesn't matter, sis.

All the pieces are gonna come
together in the end.

It's so chaotic.

And you still are missing the final piece.

This is gonna drive me insane.

You wanna know what's actually insane?

The fact that there are
no Christmas decorations

up in here and it's...

Oh, December 16.

I've had a few other things
on my mind lately.

Here, what do they smell like?

Hmm, creamy like caramel.

Butterscotch, hopefully?

- Yes.
- Yes, certainly butterscotch.

Good. Because it has to be

the best butterscotch coffee ever,

like way better than some coffee

at some hipster cafe in Brooklyn.

- Specific.
- Okay?

- Why can't anyone...
- Hey, uh...

have you spoken Mom, yet?

I have not.

Ames, it's different this time, I swear.

She just wants a chance
to talk. That's it.

Yeah, well,
I don't want to talk.

Um, yeah, excuse me.

I'm pretty sure
you're not allowed to say no.

If she reaches out again,
I will say yes.

There she is. You see,

I like you as a yes girl.

It looks good on you.

Well, I'm glad one of us likes it

because I feel like I have
no control over my life.

Oh, and Amy,

your brother has
one more thing to ask you.

I do?

Right.

Well, since you're not so busy with work,

we were hoping that

maybe we could throw

our Ugly Christmas
Sweater Soiree here.

- Pretty, pretty, please.
- Please.

Fine. Yes, you can.

Great, because we already
sent out the invites.

Oh, of course you did.
Just one condition,

I'm not gonna help with any of the set-up.

- It's your party.
- Soiree.

Soiree.

It's your soiree, and I'll be busy.

I'm roasting coffee to help raise money

for that improv guy's students.

That, um, handsome improv guy?

You're roasting coffee for him?

No, no, no, not for him.

For his students.

Hmm, okay. Yeah, "students."

- Students.
- Yeah, students. Sure.

- For students.
- Stop it.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Stop. Okay?

Anyways, I'll be in the basement

all day if you need me, okay?

Okay. Well, at least try to do
something fun tonight.

Oh, I am.

I blocked out for hours to update

my resume and reach out
to my top recruiters.

If I can set up some interviews
for the first of the year,

I'll actually enjoy
Christmas so much more.

Hmm, I just love how
different we are, Sis, truly.

- Someone's ears were burning.
- Improv hottie?

Looks like the job hunt will
have to wait till tomorrow.

We're going to dinner
to discuss the fundraiser.

Ooh! Like a date.

No. Not like a date.

A business dinner.

Just a meeting with food.

Right. Well, that kinda sounds
like a date to me.

Does that sound like a date to you?

No. No. Nope.

Trust me. This guy...

He's gonna show up in joggers, Chucks,

and a Wu-Tang t-shirt.

- It's a date.
- It's totally a date.

So if we have 12-ounce bags
and we sell 'em for $20,

we can get a $10 profit

which we'd only have to sell
200 bags to be able

to afford five laptops.

Which I think is totally
possible if we set up a pop-up

for four, maybe five days
leading up to Christmas.

- Are you tracking?
- Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, you know, all that sounds great.

Okay. Good.
So what's your marketing plan?

I just... I haven't even
thought about all that yet.

Look, I gotta be honest.

All of this isn't really my strong suit.

I'm really good
at coming up with big ideas,

but as far as following through on them,

that's not really my thing.

I'm going to plan and market
your fundraiser.

Wait, really?

I have the time
and you clearly need the help.

Wow! Thank you.

Seriously, thank you.
That's...

That's great.

You're welcome.

So what made you become
a teacher in the first place?

You know, there was a period of time

where I was struggling academically.

It was one of my teachers who
turned things around for me.

It's my guy,
Mr. Martinez, man.

I went to college

and now I have a career

that I love because of him.

- Hmm.
- If I can be that teacher

for even just one of my students,

then I did my job.

Hmm.

I bet you're that cool teacher
all the students love, huh?

Yeah, I wouldn't say all that.

But my students definitely would.

Now, what about you?

I bet you were the best student in class.

Hmm, not always.

I got straight Cs in eighth grade.

No, you didn't.

Yeah.

My dad passed when I was 13, so...

That's rough.

Yeah, it was extra rough on my mom.

How'd she handle that?

Well, she couldn't cope with
losing the love of her life,

so she...

started drinking.

It felt like I lost both
my parents in one fell swoop.

- Yeah, I can't even imagine.
- Yeah, but then I got fed up

with the feeling like
I had no control over my life,

so I grab hold of the reins myself.

After that,

straight-As.

I think I turned out pretty okay.

Yeah, I'd say more than pretty okay.

Well, you clearly win the sad
middle-school competition,

so as your prize,

the rest of the wine.

Oh, boy.

There you go.

Enjoy.

Thank you.

You wanna know something really sad?

Sadder than what you just told me?

I think we're gonna need some more wine.

I haven't had a Christmas tree in years.

- Wait, what?
- Yeah.

I just haven't had the time
to pick one out,

haul it home, decorate it.

Actually, I don't have any
decorations up right now.

Finish the rest of your wine.

Wait.

What are you doing?

I can't handle this much
tragedy in one night.

- Come on.
- Where are you going?

Oh, my God.

What are we doing here?

Don't worry about it.
Just trust me, okay?

I barely know you.

Aww, this is such a good idea.

It's too bad they're closed.

Oh, wow.

Are you really gonna let a little thing

like a closed sign stop you?

Is that a trick question?

Seriously?

I am not breaking in

and stealing a Christmas tree.

What about me says that
I'm down to commit crime, huh?

Don't worry. We're gonna leave
money for the tree, okay?

Come on, girl, live a little.

Stupid Christmas of yes,

is gonna cause me to catch a case.

Oh, my gosh, okay.

Fine. Take my shoes.

Okay.

I got it.

- You good?
- Yes.

- Okay.
- Oh, my gosh!

Okay.

- Need to do it.
- Uh-huh.

- Just need to do it.
- Anytime now.

It's a little high, but...
Oh, my goodness.

Okay.

I'm fine.

- Okay. Just hurry up.
- Mmm-hmm.

Pick a tree. Leave some money.

And then get out of here
before we end up on the news.

- Come on.
- After you.

Okay. This one right here.

It's tall, it's full.

I mean, very symmetrical,
and it's Douglas fir.

That's a classic.

- Not feeling it.
- I should've known

that finding you the perfect tree

would be a tall order

but I believe in us.

I know that we can do this.

This is the one.

Huh?

Okay.

All right.

Yes, that...

Oh, you want this tree?

Yeah. She's adorable.

Yeah. Yeah. No.

I mean, you know, it's not
the most traditionally

desirable tree that I've ever seen, but...

There's something very real
about her, and I like it.

She's got charm.

A little imperfect, but lots of charm.

Yeah, you're right.

Hey, Christmas tree selected.

Let's get her to her new home.

Cool. Here's the game plan.

You're gonna hop over back
on the other side.

I'mma lift it up and over

and then, uh, you think
you could catch it, right?

Um, no.

What do you mean no?

- Come on, it's a good plan.
- No, that's a terrible plan.

And a good plan
would be to come back tomorrow

during business hours
when they're actually open.

Okay. Fine.

We'll come back tomorrow

during business hours
when they're actually open.

And, you know, maybe this tree
will still be here

or maybe somebody else
will find her charming

and take her home.

That's what I thought.

Oh, man.

All right.

All right.

Here we go.

Oh, my gosh. Okay.

I got it, okay?

- All right. Okay.
- Okay.

Okay.

- Oh!
- Oh! Right here.

Whoa! Woo!

- Ah!
- Ah! Yes!

Bell stuck the landing!

Okay. You can do this.

All right.

- You ready?
- No.

Timber!

- Oh, oh!
- Oh!

Oh, Bell!

Oh, Bell. Are you good?

Hey.

Oh, my...

No, I'm not good!

That was a terrible plan!

I mean, at least the tree's okay.

Yeah, because I broke its fall.

Oh, shoot.
We didn't leave money.

- Oh, don't worry about it.
- No, no, no.

I am not stealing a Christmas tree.

Oh, I mean, don't worry about it because...

this is my uncle's
Christmas tree lot.

I texted him already.

He already said pick out any tree we want,

it's on the house.

- Right.
- Yeah.

You didn't wanna tell me that
before we hopped the fence?

I mean, I was just having too much fun

watching you get all worked up.

"What about me says I'm down
to commit crimes?"

Unbelievable. Unbelievable.

I'm glad you're laughing.

Oh, shoot. My shoes.

I left my shoes.

Oh, I got it. I got it.

Wow. You had a key?

Yeah.

All right.

Here you go.

All right.

Really?

You comin'?

Really?

I don't know if you should be doing that.

You're not juggling, if that's
what you're trying to do.

- I am juggling.
- No, you're not.

Oh! Oh, oh!

- Okay. Okay, okay, okay.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- My bad.
- I should take that.

I don't wanna break that.

Okay.

The icing on the cake right here.

What is that?

- How about right...
- Wait, wait. What is that?

Just getting to the Christmas spirit.

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

- Don't put that on my tree.
- What do you...

- No.
- Why?

It doesn't match the tree.

Don't you see?
It doesn't match the decor.

- Come on.
- I ain't messing with your tree.

- Let's do it right here.
- That's perfect.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, the lights.

Oh!

Oh, wow.

I love it.

Yeah.

I had a lot of fun tonight.

- Hold up.
- Stop.

You had fun?

Yes.

Okay, fine.

Thank you for forcing me

to break into your uncle's lot

and steal a tree.

And thank your Uncle Everett.

Oh, Uncle Everett's gonna thank us

for taking this tree off his hands.

She's adorable.

She is.

Uh, does it feel like, uh,

you know, a little something's missing?

What? No.

- The top?
- The star. Duh.

Yeah. Yeah.

There we go.

- All right.
- Thank you.

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Okay.

How does it look?

Yeah, it's a little crooked, but...

- No, it's not!
- I'm just playin'.

It's good, it's good, it's good.

I had a stress rash but now,
it's almost completely gone.

Oh, yeah?

♪ Jingle all the way ♪

♪ Oh, what fun ♪

♪ Oh, what fun it is to... ♪

- Hi!
- Hey!

- Uh, you guys sounded incredible.
- Thank you.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Oh, look at that.

We got a Christmas tree.

Yeah.

Uh, you know what,

I should probably go now.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- It's late.
- It's late.

I mean, come back
any time, you know, like,

literally any time.

Sure.

Um, I'll, uh...
I'll talk to you later?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- Thank you. Oh.
- Yeah.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Hi, Mom.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I've been...

No, I'm good.

Yeah.

Well, maybe you can come
by the house today

and we can talk.

Good to see you, baby.

Hey.

- Thanks, honey.
- Yeah.

Hmm. You're still roasting your own beans?

I am.

You always loved that.

Well...

Coffee was the only thing
that would sober you up.

I will be one year sober this January.

Got a sponsor and everything.

That's good.

It's real this time.

I promise.

I hope that's true.

It is.

Phil sees it.

I hope you'll see it too,

someday.

Phil wasn't the one
who had to take care of you

when you were too wasted
to make it to your bed.

Or drop you off to rehab twice.

He and I have different memories of you.

Mmm-hmm, mmm-hmm.

I only wish I could have you
look into my heart

and see how sorry I am.

I didn't have the tools
I needed back then.

Therapy has helped, and time.

That's good to hear, Mom.

You weren't the only one
who lost Dad, you know.

I wish I had been.

I wish you and your brother
never had to go through that.

That makes two of us.

I'm not sure how we get back there,

but I want us to be a family again.

I want us to be together
for birthdays and...

Sunday dinners, and for Christmas.

I'm glad you're doing well, Mom, really.

And I hope it sticks this time, but...

I was the one who picked up
all the pieces,

time after time after time.

I know.

I can't do that again.

I know.

All I'm asking is for you to
give me a chance to do better.

Well, I should go.

Um, thank you for the coffee, honey.

Uh, I am in the area Tuesdays
and Thursdays.

My AA meetings are at St. Gregory's.

I could stop by some time,
bring you lunch?

Well, I'm busy working on this
fundraiser right now, so...

I'll let you know.

Okay.

♪ One more time ♪

♪ One more time ♪

Bye, baby.

No. You gotta be smooth.

Gotta be smooth.

Yeah.

That's better.

That's good.

Come on, Nico.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I'll take your jacket.

Thanks.

Looks like someone finally
found their Christmas mojo.

It turns out when you're not
working 12-hour days,

it frees up a lot of your time.

And now the tree doesn't look so lonely.

It's all about balance, you know?

- Right. Balance.
- This way.

Welcome to my lair.

Oh!

This looks like a mad scientist lab.

But like a super-organized

mad scientist who loves coffee.

So here's the first one
I want you to try.

Dip your spoon in the water first.

- Like that?
- Yeah.

- Okay.
- Grab a sample.

Sip.

Slurp.

Okay.

That was pretty aggressive.

So...

Oh. Mm.

Mm.

Yeah. We definitely need to sell that.

Wow.

Wait, am I tasting cherries?

Close. Raspberries.

Hmm.

How long have you been doing this for?

Since I was 15.

Fifteen?

I thought coffee tasted like battery acid

when I was 15.

Yeah. Well, I love the smell
of coffee in the morning.

My parents would roast a fresh
pot every morning,

drink it together,

go over their goals for the day,

and then cheers and say, "Carpe diem."

Is that them?

Yeah.

After my dad passed away
and my mom got sick,

- there was no more coffee.
- Hmm.

And I missed the smell in the house.

So, that's how this all started.

- Wow.
- Okay.

This is the second one
I want you to try.

- Okay.
- Are you ready?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Wow.

This is crazy.

You know what, I'm usually not
a light roast kind of guy,

- but this is pretty good.
- Right?

- Yeah.
- I think it'll be a real crowd-pleaser.

Better be.

Great.

Those were the only blends
I needed you to try today.

- That's it?
- Yup.

Oh, okay.

That was very efficient.

You know what, since I'm here,

how about a, uh, demonstration?

I mean, I would love to see
the mad barista at work.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Okay. Sure.

So it all starts with the beans.

Yeah. If you have a bad bean,

it doesn't matter how well you roast it.

Smell this.

Yeah. See that? That doesn't
smell like coffee.

No. It's the roasting process

that brings out the natural
fibers of the beans.

- Huh.
- There's three roasting phases.

Drying, browning, and developing.

All you really need is a little patience

and the perfect amount of heat.

And voilà.

Now these guys are ready to brew.

Well, sort of.

I usually like to wait a few days

until the flavors are fully developed,

and sometimes
I like to add flavors.

Say it's a Christmas blend.

Otherwise,
I like to stay out of the way

and reveal the natural flavors
of the bean.

- What?
- Nothing.

I just love seeing

when people are passionate about things.

Hmm.

You know, this might be a crazy pitch,

but have you ever thought about starting
your own coffee company?

No.

It's just for fun.

No, I have never had
that thought, actually.

Okay.

Humor me.

What would you name your coffee
company, if you had one?

I have no idea.

All right.

Let's play a little word association game.

Who knows? Maybe some
inspiration will strike.

So I'll say a word

and then you say the first
thing that comes to mind.

- More improv, huh?
- Sorta.

Are you ready?

Charlotte.

Home.

Vacation.

Work.

Yellow.

Sun.

Coffee.

Carpe.

Carpe Coffee.

That's a pretty cool name
for a coffee company.

Hmm.

Yeah. Kinda is.

So, why not do it?

- Start my own coffee company?
- Yes.

I mean, you've got the equipment.

You could start out small

and then when you need to scale it,

you rent out a commercial space

and I can help you set up a website.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I mean, I'm good with
computer-y stuff. Remember?

Yeah. Right. You're good.

So?

- So?
- Yes.

Yes?

Yes.

Yes.

It'll be a side hustle
until I find another job.

That's what I'm talking about.

Watch out, world.

Carpe Coffee is about to change

the whole coffee game.

Wow.

- Like my little dance?
- I don't know if I like it.

Just a little to the right.

Yeah, yeah, yup. Right.

Almost right there.

Perfect. Perfect.

I must say I'm already
making lists in my head.

- That's really good.
- That's great.

Oh, shoot.

The ugly Christmas sweater party.

- Soiree.
- Soiree.

I forgot that that was tonight.

Well, are you gonna be rude

to your guest or are you gonna invite him?

Do you have plans tonight?

Uh, no,

but I also don't have
an ugly Christmas sweater.

Well, neither do I.

Uh...

I'm not having any luck.

- What about you?
- Hmm.

Well, they're all so gorgeous.

- How can a girl pick?
- Oh.

Hey, what about this?

Wow.

Well, you know what?
It looks very good on you.

Look at this one.

Uh-uh.

That might be the one though.

Here's a wild idea.

How about...

we pick each other's sweaters

and you have to go along
with it no matter what.

Hmm. Okay.

Well, let's not get ridiculous with this.

Okay?

Deal.

- Deal.
- Hmm.

You know, I can't believe
that you actually

made me wear this.

Dude, look at me. Okay.

I look like a frumpy old cat lady.

Well, at least you can breathe.

I'm about to Hulk out any minute.

Oh.

Nico smash.

Okay.
I'm gonna get us some drinks.

Too much?

So...

be honest.

Your house has never looked
more fun, right?

It's a good...

soiree.

Merci.

- Oh, babe. Wrong spot.
- Oh.

- Huh? Mary and Bright.
- And Bright.

That's either the cutest thing

or most annoying thing ever.

Aren't you glad you said yes to it?

Fine.

Saying yes isn't that terrible.

I knew it.

Love being a yes queen.

It's like you're finally
flowing with life.

I mean, if she keeps this up,
she's gonna make an amazing auntie.

Wait, what?

Whoops.
Did I say that out loud?

Rewind.

Did you say "auntie"?

Am I gonna be an auntie?

We weren't gonna say anything

until we were sure, but, um...

We're trying to adopt a baby girl.

Oh, my. This is amazing.

Oh, my gosh.

I'm so happy for you guys.

It's not a done deal yet.

We still have to be selected,
but, uh, fingers-crossed.

They are so crossed.

I'm gonna go top up some drinks.

- Hmm.
- Yeah.

My baby brother.

Wow.

You're gonna be a dad.

He would be very proud of you.

Yeah.

I know.

Ah, yeah.

This might be the last Christmas

we have without a little
one running around.

Better enjoy the debauchery while you can.

Oh, I will be.

So, uh, you and improv hottie,

anything you wanna share?

What? No, it's not like that.

End of story.

I don't know.
I'm sensing a vibe.

Okay. Maybe there's a little vibe

but, you know, look at him.

And he's funny and he's kind.

So, but people vibe all the time

and they're not meant to be a couple.

Okay. Give me one good reason
why you and that tall,

handsome, Christmas tree
shouldn't be together.

Nico is the opposite type of my type.

Why? Because his goal isn't
to make it on Forbes 100?

In a nutshell.

Oh, Ames, since when has any of those guys

ever worked out for you?

I rest my case.

Hey, what's up, y'all?
Merry Christmas.

Come by the theater this week

to buy some locally-roasted coffee

and help me to raise money to buy

computers for my classroom.

Broad Wood Middle, baby.

Nice utilization of those socials.

Thank you. Thank you.

I was just following your
very-detailed instructions.

See, it's not that hard.

So, are you ready
for the big day tomorrow?

Almost.

Can't wait tocarpe diem with you.

Hello?

- You there?
- Yeah.

I'm here.

See you next week.

Hey.

Amy.

I was on a walk around the neighborhood,

thought I'd see if I catch you.

I'm glad.

Um...

You hungry?

There's a cafe just down the street.

Oh, no. I can't stay.

The fundraiser starts tomorrow,

so there's still a lot
to get done before then.

Oh...

okay.

That's exciting.

Yeah.

I decided to start my own coffee business.

That's wonderful.

Consider me your first customer.

I was gonna call it Carpe Coffee.

I was inspired by
how you and dad would always

cheers your morning coffee
and say, "Carpe diem."

Your father would've loved it.

Yeah, I think so.

Okay. Well, I gotta go.

Right.

- Lots to do.
- Yeah.

We're making Christmas
cookies on Thursday.

You should come by, if you're not busy.

I would love that.

I'll bring the cookie cutters.

Better than you know yourself.

So, why don't you
take credit for what you do?

- Listen...
- Morning.

Hey, good morning.

- The goods have arrived.
- Yes.

Wow. This looks great.

Doesn't it?

Took Nico three hours
to put together the stand,

but he finally got there.

The instructions
were confusing. All right?

I didn't see you helping.

Oh. Um, your social media posts,

by the way, are getting lots of traction.

- Not bad, right? Not bad.
- Yeah.

Just hope it means we're gonna
get some good traffic today.

Oh, yeah, I think we will.

And I can't wait for you to see how crazy

people are gonna go for your coffee.

Uh, speaking of,

I have something
I want you to try.

- Oh, yeah?
- Mmm-hmm.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Okay.

- Tell me what you think.
- All right.

Is that butterscotch?

Maybe.

Did you make this for me?

Was it inspired by you?

Possibly.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, you totally made

a special blend of coffee just for me?

Well, I'm... I'm touched.

Oh, don't let it get to your head.

It's too late for that.

Well, are you gonna
tell me if you like it or not?

Yeah, yeah, gimme a second.

So this is, um,

you know, this is...

the best cup of coffee I've ever had.

- Oh, the best?
- Yes. The best.

So, uh, no longer second place?

No more second place.

That's what I'd like to hear.

And it just so happens
that I made something for you.

Just a little early
Christmas present.

Oh, you got me a Christmas present?

Don't let it go to your head.

Oh, it's way too late for that.

Uh-huh.

Oh, um, it's my old boss.

- Give me a second.
- Yeah, do your thing.

Yeah.

Hello, Winnie.

Amy, hi.

Please tell me you haven't
found another job yet.

Um, no, I have not.

Oh, thank goodness.
We need you back.

The company is imploding without you.

Wait, what?

When I tell you

how unorganized this acquisition has been,

it'll make your skin crawl.

I need you to come back
and help me sort this out.

But I thought my position
didn't exist anymore?

Listen, I just got the okay to rehire you

with a nice promotion attached.

Here we go.

And I've got the papers
ready for you to sign

so you can start immediately.

So will you come back?

Um...

Uh, yes, of course.

I'll be there in half an hour.

Yeah, I get that.

Smooth, it's all good.

All right. Thank you.

Hey, is everything good?

Yeah, I, uh, just got my job back.

Wow, that's...

That... That's great.

Congratulations.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

Um, but I actually have
to head to the office.

They need me.

They need you right now?

Yeah.

Uh, I mean, so what does that mean,

exactly, for the fundraiser?

Things are in bad shape at the office.

I don't know if I'm gonna have
time to roast any more coffee.

Right.
So then this is the first

and last day of the fundraiser then?

I'm sorry, Nico.

No, it's... it's all good, Bell.

I get it.

I do.

Maybe we'll still be
able to raise enough money

for at least one computer.

I hope so.

Um, oh, yeah, my phone.

Uh, where's my phone?

Oh. Yeah, yeah.

Hey, are you sure you're gonna be okay?

Yeah. Yeah. This is good news.

- Is it really?
- Yeah.

'Cause you don't look like it is.

I'm just taking it in.

I'm really happy about it, really.

Uh, I have to go, so...

You know what?
Bell, I gotta be honest.

I saw how lit up you were in your lab,

and you don't even look
like that right now.

That's not fair.

Come on, Nico.

I told you I wasn't gonna make
Carpe Coffee a full-time thing.

I plan to be a CEO,

and if I can be a CEO at a company

that I helped build from
the ground up, even better.

This is what I wanted.

Right. I forgot that you have
to have every detail

of your life planned out.

Hmm. Well, at least
I plan things in my life.

And what's that supposed to mean?

It means I'm gonna accomplish my goals

because I follow through.

I'm sorry.

Did you not notice that I followed through

- on all of this?
- Yeah, because I helped you.

Oh. Thank you.

Thank you for taking pity on me, Bell.

Don't thank me.
Thank my brother

and his stupid challenge.

Stupid challenge? What...

Yeah, my brother dared me to say yes

to everything till Christmas

when I normally would've said no.

To what exactly?

To going to your improv show,
to stealing a Christmas tree,

to planning a whole fundraiser?

So, you would've said no to me.

That's what you're saying.

No. No, no.
That's not what I meant.

No, no, no.

I think that's exactly
what you meant, Bell.

None of this was even real.

Wait. Actually, some of it was real.

No. You know what?

How about we both practice saying no,

as in no more seeing each other?

How about that?

Wait, Nico.

Nico.

Amy.

We're all so glad you're back.

Things have been nonstop since you left.

That's what Winnie said.

Uh, could you download me
on everything at some point?

Absolutely. Just let me know
when you're all settled in.

Thanks.

Don't suppose there's any chance

you brought some of your coffee?

Coffee.

Uh, afraid not.

Ah, well. Just having
you back will boost morale.

Okay.

Well, actually...

So there's that one.
So if you see...

Okay. So, which campaign
are you talking about?

Um, I apologize, Gwen.

That is not how it should've been handled.

- Yeah. That was that, and she went...
- Okay...

So I have to make sure
that we make up for that.

Well, I should...

Hmm.

So the local vendor is confirmed.

We have donations or cupcakes,

cider, and popcorn.

Those sales plus ticket sales

should give us enough
to get at least two computers.

We'll hit that for sure.

Tickets are almost sold out.

I know. It's wild.

Sure you don't wanna take that?

Nah.

Remember when I lost my first patient?

Little girl who died in a car crash?

Yeah.

That was a dark time for me.

And what did you do?

Dragged my butt to an improv class

'cause you knew I needed a place to escape

where I could be silly
and laugh with my friends.

And now I can't imagine
my life without it.

We've been friends for so long.

Sometimes you know what's
better for me than I do,

but right now, I think I know what's
better for you than you do.

And what's that?

You always give up when things
seem too complicated, Nico.

But I think this thing
is worth seeing through.

There is no thing, Z.

I mean, she only said yes
to me because of some

stupid challenge, not because
she actually wanted to.

Listen, I gotta finish
with this, all right?

Nico...

You're not doing anything
on the outside at all?

No, I'm not trying to be inside.

Because you can't sprinkle
until there's icing.

- Amy.
- I was trying.

Hi, honey.

Oh. And the prodigal sister has returned.

What is this?

Oh. We're making cookies, remember?

No. Yeah, it's tonight.

Sorry.

Well, I made a batch
just how you like them.

Soft in the middle,
a little extra frosting.

Yeah. That's perfect.

What's wrong?

Um, you can talk to me, baby.

What's going on?

Nothing.

I don't know.

I shouldn't be crying.

I know you've had to be so strong for...

Mom.

so long, and a lot of that is my fault.

But you're allowed to cry
whenever you feel like crying.

No. I'm not.

I got a promotion, more responsibility,

a clear path to be a CEO.

I shouldn't feel like this.

Mmm-hmm.

Something that's taken me
way too long to learn

is that if you're unhappy,
you've got to step off the path you're on

and try a different one.

Maybe it's time for you to take a detour.

You'll know what to do when it's time.

Are you sure you don't wanna take a few

of these home with you?

I never cared for sugar cookies.

I only made them every year 'cause
you kids loved them so much.

Really? I never knew that.

I was a good mom once.

You're a great mom.

I wanna be a great mom again,

more than anything.

I know it's gonna take some time.

Well, maybe we can start with
you coming over for Christmas?

I would love that.

Me too.

This is a big account.

We need to prove we have
the manpower to handle it.

Totally.

Hmm.

Ladies, can you stay late tonight?

Tonight?

I know. I know. It's not ideal

being that it's Christmas Eve,

but we have a lot of accounts

to sort through before taking
the whole day off tomorrow.

Not a problem, Winnie.
I'll cancel my plans.

No.

I'm sorry, Winnie.

Um...

I don't think I'm supposed
to work here anymore.

What?

I thought that this job is what I wanted.

I really did.

I thought that this was my path, but...

I think I'm supposed to take a detour.

Wait, you're quitting?

Yes...

I am.

Robin should take my place.

She's one of the sharpest
people I've ever worked with,

and I think she can handle
the responsibility.

And I can stay on to consult her

until she's totally up to speed.

I don't understand.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna be a CEO of my own company.

Well, I'm sorry to see you go, Amy.

I always thought that you would

take over for me one day.

But I have no doubt that you will succeed

at whatever you do.

Thanks Winnie, for everything.

Also, um,

Robin has a solid plan

to save the Skyfair
Media account.

I say go for it.

I wish I could stay longer,

but there's a show
I gotta go to.

A show?

Oh.

Merry Christmas.

Hi.

Is there any way that you can let me in?

It's sold out.

I know. But, see, this is very important.

Please?

In the spirit of Christmas?

I mean, I'll pay...

I'll pay double.

Sorry, ma'am.

I don't wanna get in trouble.

Amy?

Hi, Zuri.

I really need to talk to Nico.

Um, okay.

Give me a second.

- Coffee girl's outside.
- What?

She said she wants to talk.

Well, I mean, we're about
to go on. Tell her...

tell her I'm busy.

Look out there.

You did this.

Before you met her, no chance
you would've been able

to pull off something like this.

- At least hear her out.
- Zuri, I am busy.

All right? Please, just...

I can't right now.

Fine. But we're gonna hash
this out after the show.

Hey, so this isn't a good time.

He doesn't wanna speak to me, does he?

Sorry, Amy.

We're about to go on.

I have to go.

Oh, wow.

Someone dropped a $20 bill.

Okay. Yeah.
That was good, right?

Okay, okay, okay.
Okay. All right.

For our next scene, we'd like to bring

one of you guys up here on stage with us.

So, can we get a volunteer?
I see...

- I'll do it. I'll do it.
- Oh!

Amy Bell, everyone.

Amy, you're familiar with
the game Ding Dong, right?

I am.

Tell us about your day.

Well, I quit my job.

Good for you.

Any reason in particular?

Someone I care about inspired me

to go after my passion
and start my own company.

Love it.

Anything else interesting happened today?

Oh yeah. I snuck into an
improv show without a ticket

to tell the guy that I like, I'm sorry.

Ooh.

That is good.

Don't you think so, Nico?

Wait. Hold up.
You really quit?

Ding.

And you snuck in here without a ticket.

Ding.

And you like me?

Ding, ding.

I don't wanna plan my whole life anymore.

I mean, I still wanna plan it a bit.

I'm still me, but I wanna
leave room for a detour.

Because maybe a detour
will lead me somewhere better.

Somewhere with you.

Nico, saying yes to you was the best thing

that I've ever done,

and if you keep

asking me to go on
Christmas tree heists...

Hmm.

and go after my passions,

I will say yes,

over and over again.

Wait, wait, wait.

Just remember the golden rule of improv

is to always say yes.

Well, are you going to say something?

Bell, I gotta say,

I didn't see this coming.

You know, every time I thought that I
couldn't follow through with this fundraiser,

I would ask myself, what would Amy do?

Well, I would've planned two shows,

- a matinee and...
- Okay, okay, okay. Please.

Please don't ruin this moment right now.

My bad.

My point is,

because of you,
for the first time in my life,

I had everything perfectly planned.

And because of you...

for the first time in my life,
I didn't.

Well, you know what, Amy Bell?

I say yes.

And, can I please, please kiss you now?

Oh, yeah.

I... I don't get it.

That was not funny.

Phil, look at what Nico got us.

- Get closer.
- This is my directorial debut.

- Oh.
- Come on.

Merry Christmas.

Take a picture of you guys together.

Oh, yeah, after this.

Oh, my.

I love it, baby. Thank you.

You're welcome, Mom.

I'm gonna drink so much
Carpe Coffee out of this.

As you should.

- This is for you.
- Ooh, now for me?

Well, you got me a gift after all.

Why are you always trying to one-up me?

Wait a minute. This...

This is a donation for your classroom.

Bell, this is a lot of money.

Well, with that website
that you made for me,

I officially got my first
standing monthly order

from my old company.

It's a big order.

Between what we raised from the show

and the coffee stand, and now this,

we've officially reached our goal, baby.

Woo.

- Thank you.
- Stop. Oh, my gosh.

Hmm. Right, right, right.

We got one more, one more, one more.

Oh. For me?

- For moi?
- That's a real fancy bag.

You got selected?

Yup.

We're having a girl.

- I'm gonna be a grandma?
- Yes.

This Christmas can't get any better.

Come on. I gotta get a hug.

- Congrats.
- My baby.

- Oh, my God.
- Oh, congrats.

I'm so proud of you.

- Okay. What about a hug? Group hug.
- Oh, of course.

We don't wanna leave you guys out.

Oh, coffee.

In my new mug, please.

- I gotcha, I gotcha.
- Who says yes to more coffee?

Yes.

- Ooh.
- Yeah. okay.

Ooh!

Y'all better stop.

Merry Christmas.

What are you gonna name the baby?

- Hmm.
- Anastasia.

- No.
- Because...
