1
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:07,700
Hallmark Movies and Mysteries presents a
2021 Miracles of Christmas All -New
2
00:00:07,700 --> 00:00:08,700
Original.
3
00:00:32,460 --> 00:00:34,660
Gingerbread, gingerbread, gingerbread
house.
4
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:36,080
One more time.
5
00:00:37,460 --> 00:00:40,400
Marshmallow, peppermint, sugar, plum
pie.
6
00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:46,920
You're making me hungry.
7
00:00:47,620 --> 00:00:50,080
Well, we're done for the day. Will this
help?
8
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,960
This was one of the best Christmas gifts
you and Mom ever got me.
9
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,020
Worked wonders for my stage fright.
10
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,660
It just doesn't seem like Christmas yet.
11
00:01:25,580 --> 00:01:27,200
Yeah, it will.
12
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:29,900
But now we're due at the school.
13
00:01:30,380 --> 00:01:31,660
Right. I'll go get our coats.
14
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,980
We need a treat.
15
00:01:37,500 --> 00:01:38,298
Uh -huh.
16
00:01:38,300 --> 00:01:40,380
When? Watch what you're doing there.
17
00:01:42,030 --> 00:01:43,050
I need another wrench.
18
00:01:43,250 --> 00:01:44,109
Which one?
19
00:01:44,110 --> 00:01:46,090
Um, what's the name?
20
00:01:46,330 --> 00:01:49,830
Um, the wrench with the thingy on the
other side.
21
00:01:50,130 --> 00:01:52,330
Ratchet. That. Can I have it?
22
00:01:53,490 --> 00:01:56,790
Please? Please, can I have the 5 -8
wrench with the ratchet on the other
23
00:01:56,830 --> 00:02:00,930
and can we please get a tree sometime
this actual week and listen to another
24
00:02:00,930 --> 00:02:01,930
station instead of this?
25
00:02:02,130 --> 00:02:04,410
Please? Oh, please, dear father?
26
00:02:07,270 --> 00:02:08,590
How could I have known that?
27
00:02:09,920 --> 00:02:11,000
Classical, I presume?
28
00:02:11,340 --> 00:02:12,340
My favorite.
29
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,180
Hey, we're doing this one in the
Christmas recital. Oh, yeah? How's
30
00:02:19,180 --> 00:02:20,159
coming together?
31
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,320
Uh, it's okay. As long as I need help on
my technique.
32
00:02:23,740 --> 00:02:24,760
All teachers say that.
33
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:29,260
Just because you didn't like your music
teacher doesn't mean... Katie Cat,
34
00:02:29,460 --> 00:02:32,860
either the music is in you or it isn't.
35
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:37,100
Uh -huh. I just want to be real good,
like you.
36
00:02:41,550 --> 00:02:42,550
Come back out here.
37
00:02:49,650 --> 00:02:51,550
This recital's real important to you,
isn't it?
38
00:02:52,130 --> 00:02:56,070
It's the first one without Miss
Hendricks, and everyone's making it
39
00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:57,970
special, so I need to get it right.
40
00:02:59,410 --> 00:03:00,410
Okay.
41
00:03:01,770 --> 00:03:05,590
Well, maybe I can look into getting you
some extra help, like a tutor or teacher
42
00:03:05,590 --> 00:03:06,590
or something.
43
00:03:07,210 --> 00:03:08,210
That'd be cool.
44
00:03:08,650 --> 00:03:09,650
Great. Okay.
45
00:03:10,030 --> 00:03:12,490
And can we go to Grandma's too to get
mom's little decorations?
46
00:03:13,170 --> 00:03:15,590
You just keep asking things, don't you?
47
00:03:16,530 --> 00:03:17,530
Yes, we can.
48
00:03:18,690 --> 00:03:19,690
Maybe.
49
00:03:23,990 --> 00:03:25,310
French. Please.
50
00:03:26,170 --> 00:03:27,170
Please?
51
00:03:29,330 --> 00:03:32,510
Kids are really getting there. And the
lineup is all set.
52
00:03:33,050 --> 00:03:36,710
And Tim, I was thinking, maybe you could
give a speech for Joanna?
53
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:38,418
What, me?
54
00:03:38,420 --> 00:03:42,500
No, I don't really do public speaking.
I'm more of a behind -the -scenes
55
00:03:42,500 --> 00:03:45,800
guy. Besides, you're head of the music
department now. Oh, just the interim
56
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,680
head. I'm just filling in while they
find a new head for the department.
57
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:50,940
So, what do you say?
58
00:03:52,180 --> 00:03:53,180
Come on, Dad.
59
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,500
It's the inaugural year of Mom's
Instrument Fund. What's the worst that
60
00:03:56,500 --> 00:04:00,280
happen? People get bored, people check
their phones, people forget to donate.
61
00:04:01,540 --> 00:04:04,260
Sweetheart, there's a reason why your
mom was up front on these things.
62
00:04:04,670 --> 00:04:08,710
Remember that year that she got Grumpy
Greg to donate three saxophones to the
63
00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:09,710
music department?
64
00:04:10,110 --> 00:04:11,110
Yeah.
65
00:04:11,390 --> 00:04:16,550
I'll miss her for a billion reasons, but
to have this fund in her memory really
66
00:04:16,550 --> 00:04:17,930
feels like we're continuing her work.
67
00:04:18,890 --> 00:04:21,550
Okay. Okay, I'll write a speech.
68
00:04:22,029 --> 00:04:24,150
Great. Next up, the silent auction.
69
00:04:25,590 --> 00:04:26,610
I'll be great.
70
00:04:32,410 --> 00:04:34,090
Let me know if you need anything else.
71
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,240
You look gorgeous.
72
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,600
Aw, thanks, Sheila. You too. Oh, I have
your gift back in the back. Feel free to
73
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,480
file some music sheets while sitting
there waiting for me. Mm -hmm.
74
00:04:47,980 --> 00:04:49,860
All right, let's see.
75
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,580
Excuse me, ma 'am.
76
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,120
Hi. Hi.
77
00:04:58,580 --> 00:05:00,640
I'm here to pick up music for my
daughter, Katie.
78
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,200
Yeah, sure.
79
00:05:03,740 --> 00:05:04,740
Just a moment.
80
00:05:08,050 --> 00:05:11,850
Hey, Katie, your daughter is very
advanced.
81
00:05:12,150 --> 00:05:15,690
No, I just found it online. Katie said
she needed some help with technique.
82
00:05:16,170 --> 00:05:21,130
Oh, okay, I see. I would actually
recommend Vivaldi's Concerto in A minor.
83
00:05:21,130 --> 00:05:23,730
has a lot of scale work in it. That
might be better for her.
84
00:05:23,950 --> 00:05:26,910
Sure, I'd take all the help I can get.
Classical music's not really my thing.
85
00:05:28,210 --> 00:05:29,210
Better with country.
86
00:05:29,810 --> 00:05:31,330
Okay, that's different.
87
00:05:32,690 --> 00:05:33,990
Oh, I take it you're not a fan.
88
00:05:34,270 --> 00:05:38,210
Oh, that my dog, my truck, my woman done
me wrong.
89
00:05:38,430 --> 00:05:40,490
And it started to sound the same after a
while.
90
00:05:40,990 --> 00:05:43,110
You know, some people might say the same
thing about classical.
91
00:05:43,370 --> 00:05:44,370
Well, you would be wrong.
92
00:05:45,030 --> 00:05:47,310
Classical has the advantage of no
outdated lyrics.
93
00:05:47,650 --> 00:05:49,730
Oh, but those strings, they just put you
to sleep.
94
00:05:51,490 --> 00:05:52,750
I play one of those strings.
95
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,800
You know, maybe you shouldn't be such a
music snob if you work in a music store.
96
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,640
Well, I don't work here, for one. And
for another... Oh, you just walk into
97
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,380
random joints and you freelance your
opinion.
98
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:05,340
My best friend Sheila owns this joint.
99
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,980
And I do believe that you started it.
100
00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:09,660
Here you go!
101
00:06:12,980 --> 00:06:14,320
Sean! Hi.
102
00:06:15,020 --> 00:06:15,939
Hey, Sheila.
103
00:06:15,940 --> 00:06:19,400
Hi. I see you're my best... my best
friend in the world.
104
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,120
Did you get the piece?
105
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:22,880
Yeah, uh...
106
00:06:23,790 --> 00:06:24,790
She set me up.
107
00:06:24,910 --> 00:06:27,210
What do I owe you for it? I'll put it on
your account.
108
00:06:28,090 --> 00:06:29,090
Thank you.
109
00:06:29,390 --> 00:06:33,510
And Merry Christmas, best friend. Merry
Christmas.
110
00:06:34,070 --> 00:06:35,070
Bye, Sheila.
111
00:06:37,590 --> 00:06:39,030
Do you even know who that was?
112
00:06:39,710 --> 00:06:40,710
Sean Grant.
113
00:06:41,210 --> 00:06:42,210
Who?
114
00:06:42,590 --> 00:06:43,950
Country music star.
115
00:06:44,430 --> 00:06:46,030
Really? Yeah.
116
00:06:46,290 --> 00:06:47,830
Seriously. City girl.
117
00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:50,250
Red tail hawk. Sweet huckleberry.
118
00:06:51,690 --> 00:06:53,430
Maybe that last one? I don't know.
119
00:06:53,650 --> 00:06:55,310
Oh, you are the weirdest.
120
00:06:56,110 --> 00:06:58,270
The green dress pants.
121
00:06:58,630 --> 00:07:01,590
Uh -huh. Or red dress.
122
00:07:01,910 --> 00:07:03,410
What do you think? For the recital.
123
00:07:04,450 --> 00:07:05,450
Oh.
124
00:07:06,950 --> 00:07:07,950
It's fine.
125
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:09,050
I'll just ask Grandma.
126
00:07:10,750 --> 00:07:11,750
Sorry, kiddo.
127
00:07:13,130 --> 00:07:14,950
Why do you put the clothes away and meet
me downstairs?
128
00:07:15,170 --> 00:07:17,110
Because you are on potato duty.
129
00:07:17,570 --> 00:07:18,570
Okay.
130
00:08:13,070 --> 00:08:15,090
Katie Cat, where are you? I'm here.
131
00:08:15,570 --> 00:08:17,090
Look who made it to the country.
132
00:08:18,490 --> 00:08:19,570
Hi, Katie.
133
00:08:20,330 --> 00:08:24,450
I still do not understand why you guys
choose to live out in the middle of
134
00:08:24,450 --> 00:08:25,570
nowhere. We like it here.
135
00:08:25,790 --> 00:08:26,790
And less guests.
136
00:08:28,270 --> 00:08:29,270
All right.
137
00:08:30,090 --> 00:08:35,190
Those look like Christmas presents. No,
those are Hanukkah presents.
138
00:08:35,549 --> 00:08:38,210
No, but you can't open them until the
first night.
139
00:08:38,830 --> 00:08:39,830
I want that.
140
00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:41,809
Oh, I know. It's, um, tomorrow.
141
00:08:42,890 --> 00:08:43,890
Yes.
142
00:08:44,510 --> 00:08:46,070
Want to scrub some potatoes?
143
00:08:46,350 --> 00:08:49,850
I just got here and you're putting me to
work? Oh, I think she learned that from
144
00:08:49,850 --> 00:08:53,930
you. Oh, you think, eh? Uh -huh. You,
fire up some music. Something good.
145
00:08:54,030 --> 00:08:57,270
Something country. Maybe some early Sean
Grant.
146
00:08:57,470 --> 00:08:58,470
Oh. Huh?
147
00:08:59,510 --> 00:09:03,010
And you, let's fire up something in the
kitchen.
148
00:09:03,610 --> 00:09:04,930
Okay. Huh?
149
00:09:05,250 --> 00:09:06,690
No. Huh? Look at this concentration.
150
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,380
I've had at most one bar on my cell
phone since I've been here. My boots,
151
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,100
they're new. They're caked in mud. I can
hate the countryside.
152
00:09:17,540 --> 00:09:23,020
Huh? Also, you guys don't have a single
recording studio out here on what? How
153
00:09:23,020 --> 00:09:24,020
many acres?
154
00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:26,400
129. And a half.
155
00:09:26,620 --> 00:09:28,320
So what about horses?
156
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,340
Horses are okay. Oh, great, because we
are putting you up in the stables for
157
00:09:33,340 --> 00:09:36,780
night. No, I got myself a hotel room in
the actual town.
158
00:09:37,420 --> 00:09:41,960
Oh, well, that sounds like a good idea
to me, Hersh, because every time I come
159
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:46,880
out here to this ranch, it seems like
it's getting farther and farther away.
160
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,160
It is.
161
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:49,379
Hey, Grandma.
162
00:09:49,380 --> 00:09:50,380
Hi, baby.
163
00:09:50,560 --> 00:09:54,460
Let me fix you a plate, Ruthie. No,
that's all right. I'm just here to keep
164
00:09:54,460 --> 00:09:57,380
promise. Grandma's going to braid my
hair. Yes, I am.
165
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,700
Come on. I got all this new product.
Wait till you see what I have. You do
166
00:10:04,700 --> 00:10:05,700
hair and I'll...
167
00:10:06,090 --> 00:10:07,090
Finish alone.
168
00:10:08,070 --> 00:10:09,070
Cookies?
169
00:10:09,830 --> 00:10:11,550
Oh, those look delicious, Dad.
170
00:10:11,750 --> 00:10:14,770
Well, thanks. It was, uh, bake or write
my speech.
171
00:10:21,070 --> 00:10:22,070
Who's this singing?
172
00:10:23,290 --> 00:10:25,170
Oh, that's, uh, Sean Grant.
173
00:10:28,670 --> 00:10:32,970
He does Christmas music, too. Oh, just
this one. It was a benefit album.
174
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,860
I ran into him at Sheila's store this
afternoon.
175
00:10:37,660 --> 00:10:38,680
Really? Mm -hmm.
176
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,020
That's a rare sighting.
177
00:10:41,660 --> 00:10:42,660
Why is that?
178
00:10:42,940 --> 00:10:45,080
Well, he keeps doing his job most of the
time.
179
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,540
Moved here after his wife passed away
about three years ago.
180
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,000
His daughter's in your mom's music
program.
181
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,380
So let's talk nice about him.
182
00:11:03,190 --> 00:11:04,950
He's got a great voice, doesn't he?
183
00:11:10,350 --> 00:11:11,970
How are you feeling?
184
00:11:12,290 --> 00:11:18,530
I'm excited and nervous. It's my first
time performing a solo, so... Oh, I
185
00:11:18,530 --> 00:11:19,930
remember my first solo.
186
00:11:20,190 --> 00:11:25,090
Oh, we're going to have to fix your hair
up. Real special for that.
187
00:11:25,370 --> 00:11:26,550
You got any ideas?
188
00:11:26,970 --> 00:11:28,530
Cornrows, box braids?
189
00:11:29,550 --> 00:11:31,510
Um, I want to wear it out.
190
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,100
Maybe, but... But what?
191
00:11:35,560 --> 00:11:38,660
But I think it should be flipped back.
It looks more professional.
192
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,980
More professional?
193
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,280
Did somebody tell you that?
194
00:11:43,820 --> 00:11:50,140
No, but I've seen it on social media,
so... I think it's good to stand out.
195
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,840
You be proud of who you are and what you
are.
196
00:11:54,200 --> 00:12:00,240
And no matter how you wear your hair, it
will be beautiful, just like you.
197
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,080
All right.
198
00:12:05,560 --> 00:12:07,420
We got to get it started.
199
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:09,520
Knock, knock.
200
00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:12,880
I thought you could use something sweet.
201
00:12:13,140 --> 00:12:14,119
Thank you.
202
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,300
Oh, thank you.
203
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:17,880
Hey,
204
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:19,560
Ruthie, you got a minute?
205
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,200
Sure.
206
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,220
You think about it, okay? Because
whatever you want to do with your hair,
207
00:12:26,220 --> 00:12:28,800
what we're going to do. All right? All
right. I'll be right back.
208
00:12:35,630 --> 00:12:36,630
You two okay in there?
209
00:12:36,690 --> 00:12:37,690
Oh, we're fine.
210
00:12:38,150 --> 00:12:40,130
Braiding time is bonding time.
211
00:12:40,350 --> 00:12:42,030
She talks, I listen.
212
00:12:42,990 --> 00:12:46,610
Before you know it, she'll be braiding
her own hair. Different tools than I'm
213
00:12:46,610 --> 00:12:47,610
used to working with.
214
00:12:47,790 --> 00:12:48,790
I'm sure.
215
00:12:50,210 --> 00:12:53,050
Have you had a chance to talk with Katie
about the recital?
216
00:12:54,210 --> 00:12:56,550
She just seems a little anxious.
217
00:12:57,010 --> 00:12:58,010
Yeah.
218
00:12:58,270 --> 00:13:00,030
Yeah, actually, I got that impression
earlier.
219
00:13:01,090 --> 00:13:03,870
I think she doesn't want to just play
the part.
220
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,040
She wants to look the part.
221
00:13:06,980 --> 00:13:08,120
Look, it's normal.
222
00:13:09,140 --> 00:13:14,100
And when she was little, she noticed the
difference between you and Allison. But
223
00:13:14,100 --> 00:13:19,220
now that she's older, she can articulate
her feelings better. She's getting
224
00:13:19,220 --> 00:13:20,220
smarter every day.
225
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,360
Mm -hmm. More inquisitive, more curious.
226
00:13:24,780 --> 00:13:27,360
I don't have the answers.
227
00:13:27,860 --> 00:13:32,420
Of course you don't. I mean, sometimes
you will, sometimes you won't.
228
00:13:32,660 --> 00:13:33,660
But...
229
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,620
All you have to do is keep being Katie's
dad.
230
00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:40,680
Here.
231
00:13:43,380 --> 00:13:44,460
Oh, this is good.
232
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,400
I know how to make a good hot chocolate.
233
00:13:48,780 --> 00:13:50,740
Too many marshmallows, but that's okay.
234
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:54,600
There he is.
235
00:13:56,060 --> 00:13:57,060
How's Katie doing?
236
00:13:58,060 --> 00:13:59,620
Looks like you're getting the hang of
things.
237
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,040
Yeah, yeah.
238
00:14:03,209 --> 00:14:06,210
It's just the whole without Allison part
I'm struggling with.
239
00:14:08,390 --> 00:14:11,590
So, dare I ask, what's the news?
240
00:14:11,870 --> 00:14:17,050
Can't a guy just sit back with a cup of
hot chocolate and chat about the
241
00:14:17,050 --> 00:14:18,110
realities of fatherhood?
242
00:14:18,390 --> 00:14:21,870
How is it, by the way? Dude, a mountain
of marshmallows. That's the way we do it
243
00:14:21,870 --> 00:14:22,870
on the rant.
244
00:14:24,550 --> 00:14:25,770
All right, man, listen.
245
00:14:26,850 --> 00:14:28,730
The label is really laying on the
pressure.
246
00:14:29,700 --> 00:14:33,080
A lot of pressure. No more delays.
You've got to get back to Nashville.
247
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,140
got to get in the studio and record that
album.
248
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,120
What if I can't?
249
00:14:37,900 --> 00:14:40,980
I've heard that song before. Everybody
has heard that song before.
250
00:14:41,260 --> 00:14:42,680
What if I refuse to?
251
00:14:43,180 --> 00:14:44,980
Eventually you'll be in breach of
contract.
252
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,940
People are forgetting about you, Sean.
253
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,000
Your fans are only going to stick by
this sad widower part for so long.
254
00:14:52,900 --> 00:14:54,200
Hirsch, come on.
255
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,880
I'm starting to feel like you've run
away to West Virginia.
256
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:09,580
What if... What if I don't have anything
to say?
257
00:15:13,020 --> 00:15:14,640
What if you got something new to say?
258
00:15:16,340 --> 00:15:17,340
About loss.
259
00:15:18,500 --> 00:15:19,500
About being a dad.
260
00:15:20,740 --> 00:15:23,240
About driving that big old pickup truck
to PTA meetings.
261
00:15:27,100 --> 00:15:29,560
I'm just worried that if you close the
door now, you're not going to be able to
262
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:30,560
get through it again later.
263
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:56,480
Wow.
264
00:15:59,220 --> 00:16:00,260
Oh, he's here.
265
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,100
Who? My teacher.
266
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:03,720
Your what?
267
00:16:04,540 --> 00:16:06,140
My violin teacher, the one you texted.
268
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:13,380
Wait, your violin teacher? I didn't...
Katie Elizabeth Grant, what did you
269
00:16:13,380 --> 00:16:14,960
do? You said I could have a teacher.
270
00:16:15,180 --> 00:16:16,180
Who I would find.
271
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,720
Look, we have to be careful. We can't
just give our address out to anybody.
272
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,340
She's a violin teacher, Dad. Hey, hey,
hey, slow down, okay? Let me answer the
273
00:16:24,340 --> 00:16:25,340
door.
274
00:16:33,370 --> 00:16:37,210
Best friend. And I'm Katie.
275
00:16:38,950 --> 00:16:39,950
Come on in.
276
00:16:41,130 --> 00:16:42,810
Well, I grabbed your number. I didn't
realize.
277
00:16:43,150 --> 00:16:47,090
I've been teaching students in town the
past few months. Sheila let me put up my
278
00:16:47,090 --> 00:16:49,350
contact number. You've only been
teaching for a few months?
279
00:16:50,110 --> 00:16:54,290
Well, I live in New York City. I am a
professional violinist. So I've been
280
00:16:54,290 --> 00:16:57,130
picking up students here to cover
expenses. Okay, I'm sorry. So you're
281
00:16:57,130 --> 00:16:58,130
for the holiday?
282
00:16:59,210 --> 00:17:01,990
You study music at Bluffside, right? How
did you know that?
283
00:17:02,780 --> 00:17:04,160
Johanna Hendricks was my mother.
284
00:17:04,940 --> 00:17:05,940
No way.
285
00:17:06,180 --> 00:17:08,380
Way. You can call me Beth.
286
00:17:08,740 --> 00:17:09,740
Beth.
287
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:11,119
Well,
288
00:17:11,859 --> 00:17:15,800
in that case, welcome to our ranch.
289
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,260
This is your music room.
290
00:17:23,579 --> 00:17:26,579
Yep. It was my mom's favorite room in
the whole house.
291
00:17:28,209 --> 00:17:31,330
No, the acoustics aren't the best
because of the windows, but I figure
292
00:17:31,330 --> 00:17:34,690
better to practice with a view than, you
know, a soundproof studio.
293
00:17:35,290 --> 00:17:39,550
I hope this will be okay. If you're used
to a six by nine practice room where
294
00:17:39,550 --> 00:17:42,850
the view is a brick wall and you're
lucky if you can move your bow or hear
295
00:17:42,850 --> 00:17:46,090
yourself over the tuba next door, this
is, yeah, this is fine.
296
00:17:46,730 --> 00:17:48,930
You live next door to a tubist.
297
00:17:50,010 --> 00:17:52,490
No, that's not what I said. That must be
very annoying.
298
00:17:53,430 --> 00:17:57,350
Yes, it is. His name is Greg and he's
beginner intermediate at best.
299
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:05,560
Huh. Well, your mother was a great
teacher. Yeah, and my dad hates music
300
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,560
teachers. Katie, why don't you go clean
up the dishes?
301
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:10,259
They're clear.
302
00:18:10,260 --> 00:18:14,140
Okay, then go do your homework. But I
have a violin lesson. Give us a moment
303
00:18:14,140 --> 00:18:15,140
alone.
304
00:18:16,380 --> 00:18:19,000
He'll like you like Miss Hendricks. She
was the best.
305
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,600
So, you hate music teachers. I don't
hate.
306
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,300
Music teachers. It's just that I don't
believe that practicing scales over and
307
00:18:29,300 --> 00:18:32,240
over again is a substitute for musical
talent.
308
00:18:32,620 --> 00:18:38,140
That is true, but practice can make that
talent shine through later. And you are
309
00:18:38,140 --> 00:18:39,900
looking for someone to teach her, yes?
310
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,520
Yes. Yes, I am, because that is what she
wants.
311
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:45,160
Here.
312
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:50,160
And you should know that Katie wired
this whole thing up. I sent the first
313
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,760
but I guess that Katie sent the follow
-up text.
314
00:18:55,340 --> 00:18:59,720
All right, so you weren't the one who...
That what?
315
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:04,760
I actually tried to turn down the job
because, like I said, I'm leaving after
316
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:10,320
the holidays, but you or Katie offered
me double my rate to take the job, which
317
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:11,580
is not necessary.
318
00:19:13,020 --> 00:19:16,200
Okay, then. Well, double is fine.
319
00:19:17,820 --> 00:19:18,820
She is unbelievable.
320
00:19:19,460 --> 00:19:23,700
And persistent, which makes for a really
great student and musician.
321
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,940
Okay, well, if you teach Katie, there
are a few rules.
322
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:29,540
There are no photographs.
323
00:19:30,060 --> 00:19:32,780
There's no recording. There's nothing on
social media.
324
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,280
Is there a fourth?
325
00:19:38,820 --> 00:19:39,820
No.
326
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,620
I would never do any of those things.
327
00:19:42,860 --> 00:19:46,160
Well, you say that now, but someone
comes sneaking around, asking for a
328
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,760
offering you triple your salary.
329
00:19:48,540 --> 00:19:52,360
It's just important that Katie has a
normal life here, especially after her.
330
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,700
Well, I would never do anything to
jeopardize a young girl, especially one
331
00:19:56,700 --> 00:19:58,280
lost her mom. I just want you to know
that.
332
00:19:58,980 --> 00:19:59,980
Okay.
333
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:01,920
Katie!
334
00:20:03,860 --> 00:20:05,800
You ready for your lesson with Ms.
Hendricks?
335
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,020
Yes, finally.
336
00:20:07,380 --> 00:20:10,380
Okay, well, I'm changing the password on
my cell phone.
337
00:20:11,060 --> 00:20:12,080
Cool story, Dad.
338
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:13,280
Okay.
339
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:14,600
Let's get started.
340
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,400
You're working for Sean Grant?
341
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,940
Tell me, was he just as nice and
private? I literally can't say, Sheila.
342
00:20:22,940 --> 00:20:23,980
wants to protect his daughter.
343
00:20:25,060 --> 00:20:27,460
Well, that's sweet.
344
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:34,440
I never thought I'd say it about someone
like him, but... Raising, you know, a
345
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,980
young daughter after losing your wife
and being someone that everybody wants a
346
00:20:37,980 --> 00:20:40,320
piece of, it must just be... Hmm.
347
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,219
Mm -hmm.
348
00:20:42,220 --> 00:20:43,220
What?
349
00:20:43,660 --> 00:20:45,140
Beth, am I sensing a connection?
350
00:20:46,340 --> 00:20:51,040
Stop. I'm taking on one last student
whose father is paying me very well to
351
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,600
really help when I get back to expensive
New York. Okay, that's it. Can you say
352
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,380
something? It's not that I wouldn't keep
going. This is getting interesting.
353
00:20:58,900 --> 00:20:59,900
Thanks, Hendrix.
354
00:21:00,140 --> 00:21:02,140
Linda! I'll be right back.
355
00:21:02,500 --> 00:21:03,500
Hi. Oh, hi.
356
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,740
Oh, I haven't seen you since Youth
Orchestra.
357
00:21:08,220 --> 00:21:12,540
Yeah, I must have been 16 or so. And
they whisked you off to New York.
358
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:14,160
How's it been?
359
00:21:14,620 --> 00:21:17,180
Oh, must be a different rhythm to
Charleston.
360
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,840
Yeah, not so much a rhythm as a slog,
but... Why, was the fellowship program
361
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,360
good? No, no, the program was great.
362
00:21:25,780 --> 00:21:30,540
Rigorous training, bimonthly showcases,
and just really, really good players.
363
00:21:31,260 --> 00:21:37,480
Since then, it's been auditions for
orchestras and teaching, playing
364
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:38,639
hotel events.
365
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,060
Wait, you wouldn't happen to be free
this Saturday night, would you?
366
00:21:42,500 --> 00:21:47,540
Why? You having a last -minute wedding,
are you? Actually, I'm in a quartet. I
367
00:21:47,540 --> 00:21:51,320
know it's crazy, but we have a Christmas
concert, and our first violin is
368
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,700
pregnant, and her doctors put her on bed
rest.
369
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,420
We haven't been able to find a sub.
370
00:21:56,220 --> 00:21:58,320
How's your here -we -come -a -wassling?
371
00:21:59,700 --> 00:22:00,960
It'll be ready by Saturday.
372
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,400
Fantastic.
373
00:22:02,540 --> 00:22:06,800
Listen, put your number in, and I will
text you the details and charts.
374
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,480
Thank you, Linda. This is going to be
great.
375
00:22:13,300 --> 00:22:15,100
See you soon. Yes, good to see you.
376
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,120
What just happened?
377
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,740
I got another job.
378
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:22,080
What?
379
00:23:01,540 --> 00:23:02,540
Want to take a break?
380
00:23:03,700 --> 00:23:05,400
I should probably keep practicing.
381
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:06,840
I just want to show you something.
382
00:23:07,660 --> 00:23:08,660
Just take a minute.
383
00:23:35,370 --> 00:23:36,089
Don't stop.
384
00:23:36,090 --> 00:23:37,410
You working on something new?
385
00:23:37,630 --> 00:23:39,410
Yeah, I was just dusting it off.
386
00:23:40,290 --> 00:23:42,770
Okay. Well, got to start somewhere.
387
00:23:43,090 --> 00:23:44,090
Wasn't anything?
388
00:23:44,870 --> 00:23:45,910
Wasn't anything yet.
389
00:23:47,910 --> 00:23:49,930
Katie keeps asking about her Hanukkah
present.
390
00:23:52,130 --> 00:23:56,990
I'm teaching her how to make luck,
because you going to keep writing?
391
00:23:57,470 --> 00:23:59,470
No, I'll be in in a minute.
392
00:24:00,030 --> 00:24:01,030
All right.
393
00:24:02,390 --> 00:24:03,530
I'll get your apron ready.
394
00:24:14,730 --> 00:24:16,790
It's the angel tree topper moment I
made.
395
00:24:19,570 --> 00:24:20,570
Let's get it on the tree.
396
00:24:27,550 --> 00:24:31,770
Your mother saved every single one that
she was given.
397
00:24:32,410 --> 00:24:37,270
So many of them, it's almost too hard to
put them all on the tree.
398
00:24:39,230 --> 00:24:41,010
Does it feel like Christmas yet, Dad?
399
00:24:43,850 --> 00:24:46,070
I think we have one more tree to visit.
400
00:24:50,450 --> 00:24:51,450
Get a good handful.
401
00:24:51,570 --> 00:24:52,570
All right, in the cloth.
402
00:24:53,070 --> 00:24:55,230
That's good. Then you squeeze all the
water out.
403
00:24:56,090 --> 00:24:57,890
Squeeze. There's more than you think.
404
00:24:58,110 --> 00:24:59,110
Yeah.
405
00:24:59,130 --> 00:25:01,290
My bubby taught me this recipe when I
was your age.
406
00:25:02,490 --> 00:25:04,510
That's good, that's good. Put the
potatoes in the bowl.
407
00:25:06,250 --> 00:25:08,810
Yeah. We've got to let the starch
settle.
408
00:25:09,250 --> 00:25:12,030
And then we'll pop one of these in. Can
I do the frying?
409
00:25:12,490 --> 00:25:15,710
I should probably check my insurance
policy first, right? Come on. We're in
410
00:25:15,710 --> 00:25:17,950
Virginia. You've got to learn how to fry
at some point.
411
00:25:18,510 --> 00:25:20,070
Careful. All right.
412
00:25:20,490 --> 00:25:21,490
Here you go.
413
00:25:22,810 --> 00:25:24,290
Okay. Careful, careful, careful.
414
00:25:25,410 --> 00:25:26,410
Ooh.
415
00:25:27,710 --> 00:25:30,590
Bullseye. It's going to be great seeing
you perform again.
416
00:25:30,790 --> 00:25:31,790
It's been too long.
417
00:25:32,030 --> 00:25:36,710
I'm sorry for not coming home more
often. Being here is grounding.
418
00:25:37,190 --> 00:25:41,170
You came back over the years. I know,
but never for this long and just...
419
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:47,020
I'm sorry that it took this trip for me
to realize how one track my life is.
420
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:54,060
I do love violin. I mean, this is what
I'm made for. It's just... Sometimes I
421
00:25:54,060 --> 00:25:56,060
wonder if it's enough.
422
00:25:59,540 --> 00:26:00,700
The Angel Tree!
423
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:06,140
What do you say? One for you, one for
me, and one for Mom?
424
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:07,640
Yeah.
425
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,620
And next up, hot cider.
426
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,220
Oh, yes, please.
427
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,700
Oh, man, I love Hanukkah. I'm going to
fry everything from now on.
428
00:26:28,140 --> 00:26:32,880
What's not to love about it? Lights,
miracles, delicious food, giving to
429
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,220
charity. And presents.
430
00:26:35,020 --> 00:26:36,420
The kid is a broken record.
431
00:26:37,140 --> 00:26:38,940
Okay, go on. I'll clean up.
432
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:40,640
Let's go.
433
00:26:46,700 --> 00:26:48,220
Don't you usually have a tree there?
434
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,540
My dad gets later every year.
435
00:26:52,260 --> 00:26:53,260
Have these for me?
436
00:26:55,940 --> 00:26:58,200
Do I get drums, too? I got you five of
them.
437
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,540
Three cymbals, one for each night of
Hanukkah. Dad's going to be so mad. Oh,
438
00:27:02,540 --> 00:27:03,339
he ever.
439
00:27:03,340 --> 00:27:04,360
Let's open them all tonight.
440
00:27:05,940 --> 00:27:07,840
So I heard you were talking to him about
singing.
441
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,800
Yeah. Yeah, I'm working on them. I
promise you.
442
00:27:12,100 --> 00:27:13,680
Can you work on getting me a tree, too?
443
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,380
And maybe my mom's little decorations.
444
00:27:17,740 --> 00:27:20,040
Sometimes I don't even know where we
brought them here from Nashville.
445
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,720
Hey, so where's my present? Your
present?
446
00:27:27,140 --> 00:27:30,280
I got you a kazoo. Oh.
447
00:27:32,340 --> 00:27:35,320
A kazoo. You shouldn't have. Well, I
came free with the kit.
448
00:27:51,210 --> 00:27:52,510
How's it going with the fundraiser?
449
00:27:52,850 --> 00:27:56,310
I made a list of instruments and I sent
it off to Sheila last night. I heard.
450
00:27:56,350 --> 00:27:58,570
She said she spoke to the distributor
and they're all set.
451
00:27:59,210 --> 00:28:00,210
No.
452
00:28:01,650 --> 00:28:02,650
The decorations.
453
00:28:02,790 --> 00:28:04,030
I completely forgot.
454
00:28:04,370 --> 00:28:07,490
I told Pat I was going to swing by and
grab the garlands and the holly and...
455
00:28:07,490 --> 00:28:08,910
Well, I can do it.
456
00:28:09,690 --> 00:28:12,410
Are you sure? I don't want to put you
out. No, it's no problem.
457
00:28:13,010 --> 00:28:14,050
Thank you, Beth. Yeah.
458
00:29:17,290 --> 00:29:19,810
Well, technically, you're on point.
459
00:29:20,110 --> 00:29:25,430
But I need you to feel the song. Just
dig a little deeper.
460
00:29:25,690 --> 00:29:30,330
And please, pay attention to the cutoff.
461
00:29:31,450 --> 00:29:32,970
I thought you sounded great.
462
00:29:34,570 --> 00:29:38,350
Pay no attention to that man. He knows
nothing about music.
463
00:29:38,670 --> 00:29:39,670
I love you, Sean.
464
00:29:39,870 --> 00:29:42,750
I love you, Sean.
465
00:29:47,460 --> 00:29:48,940
Maybe I'm just out of ideas.
466
00:29:50,300 --> 00:29:51,300
No.
467
00:29:51,620 --> 00:29:53,180
That's a choice you made.
468
00:29:58,900 --> 00:29:59,900
Truth?
469
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,660
I wouldn't be sitting here for anything
less.
470
00:30:03,140 --> 00:30:07,580
Okay, Hirsch says it's like... It's like
I've run away, but no.
471
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,700
No, this place is good for Katie, being
close to you.
472
00:30:12,700 --> 00:30:19,140
I thought maybe because this is
Allison's hometown, I might... Find
473
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:21,920
Sean.
474
00:30:22,540 --> 00:30:24,260
Honey, how can you say that?
475
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:31,120
You have been holed up out there in that
ranch of yours for almost three years
476
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,760
now. Like some cursed prince.
477
00:30:34,100 --> 00:30:38,160
You don't go anywhere. You don't talk to
anybody. You don't do anything.
478
00:30:38,860 --> 00:30:41,660
No wonder you're feeling uninspired.
479
00:30:43,060 --> 00:30:44,560
Allison wasn't your...
480
00:30:45,130 --> 00:30:47,390
Inspiration because you found her?
481
00:30:48,890 --> 00:30:50,710
You had to love her.
482
00:30:52,490 --> 00:30:54,050
You can't just be here.
483
00:30:54,390 --> 00:30:55,930
You have to live here.
484
00:30:57,970 --> 00:31:01,710
Well, what if what I write now isn't any
good?
485
00:31:02,330 --> 00:31:07,070
What if she'd hate it? What if you're
using Allison as some sort of an excuse
486
00:31:07,070 --> 00:31:10,230
not to do the thing that you were born
to do?
487
00:31:11,470 --> 00:31:13,010
What would she think about that?
488
00:31:14,700 --> 00:31:17,800
She couldn't stand for it. You got that
right.
489
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,060
And it's okay to miss her.
490
00:31:23,700 --> 00:31:27,520
It's okay to be angry that she was taken
away too soon.
491
00:31:29,740 --> 00:31:33,220
You want my advice?
492
00:31:34,180 --> 00:31:35,380
Live your life.
493
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,940
Get out there, explore, discover
something.
494
00:31:41,180 --> 00:31:42,380
Or else...
495
00:31:46,060 --> 00:31:47,320
What was the point of coming here?
496
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:00,120
All right.
497
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,700
Everything is in the storage unit.
498
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:07,200
What are you going to hang them on?
499
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,240
Well, I'm about to get a tree if you
want to join.
500
00:32:09,620 --> 00:32:11,900
No, I'm on my way down to the rec
center.
501
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,820
They post a lot of volunteer jobs this
time of the year. You're serious about
502
00:32:16,820 --> 00:32:17,599
more work?
503
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,680
Yeah. Gives me purpose.
504
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:21,620
Gotta keep it moving.
505
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,160
Thank you.
506
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:27,520
You're welcome.
507
00:32:28,220 --> 00:32:29,440
Have a good time.
508
00:32:44,939 --> 00:32:46,780
Hi. Oh, fancy seeing you here.
509
00:32:47,580 --> 00:32:51,040
That is a lot of garland. Oh, it's for
the recital.
510
00:32:51,420 --> 00:32:53,440
I may have gone a little overboard.
511
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,340
I'll take that for you. Thank you.
512
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:57,520
What about you?
513
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,900
I'm here to get a tree. It's supposed to
be a surprise for Katie.
514
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,200
Oh.
515
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,120
Do you mind giving me a hand?
516
00:33:06,580 --> 00:33:07,580
Yeah, of course.
517
00:33:14,890 --> 00:33:17,930
Must have been a big change for you two,
moving from Nashville.
518
00:33:19,030 --> 00:33:22,910
Yeah. I mean, I grew up in Nashville.
Met Allison there.
519
00:33:23,510 --> 00:33:24,950
Thought I'd spend my whole life there.
520
00:33:25,430 --> 00:33:27,370
The ranch was actually Allison's idea.
521
00:33:28,070 --> 00:33:30,370
She thought it'd be good for us to have
a place to retreat.
522
00:33:31,270 --> 00:33:35,130
I also think it was a way for Katie to
be close to her mom.
523
00:33:35,630 --> 00:33:36,630
Yeah.
524
00:33:39,210 --> 00:33:43,590
Katie's grandmother is Ruthie. She runs
Bethel Grace Choir. Ruthie Sampson.
525
00:33:44,210 --> 00:33:47,890
Yeah. Yeah, it's actually how I met your
mother and why I put Katie in the
526
00:33:47,890 --> 00:33:48,890
Bluffhead School.
527
00:33:49,230 --> 00:33:50,570
Have you ever met her?
528
00:33:50,810 --> 00:33:54,710
No, but Ruthie and my mom started a
youth program about ten years ago when I
529
00:33:54,710 --> 00:33:58,230
in New York. Huh. My mom would send me
links to Ruthie's choir. They were
530
00:33:58,230 --> 00:33:59,230
amazing.
531
00:34:00,310 --> 00:34:02,870
So you like gospel music?
532
00:34:03,210 --> 00:34:06,210
Of course I do. It's just country music
that you're weird about.
533
00:34:06,890 --> 00:34:09,170
I grew up playing classical violin.
534
00:34:09,590 --> 00:34:11,810
Okay, which means that you are a
fiddler.
535
00:34:12,030 --> 00:34:14,810
No. Fiddling, not what I did. You
haven't heard any of the greats?
536
00:34:15,590 --> 00:34:20,170
Roy Acuff, Johnny Gimble, Texas Shorty.
Okay, those aren't real names.
537
00:34:20,389 --> 00:34:23,389
You know what? Don't tell me you have
Johnny Roy Texas on your phone.
538
00:34:23,590 --> 00:34:24,089
Mm -hmm.
539
00:34:24,090 --> 00:34:25,090
Here.
540
00:34:32,750 --> 00:34:33,750
What?
541
00:34:34,130 --> 00:34:35,130
What?
542
00:34:38,909 --> 00:34:40,929
I'll, uh, I'll text you a playlist.
543
00:34:42,550 --> 00:34:43,550
Sure.
544
00:34:46,050 --> 00:34:48,530
Maybe you would like to hear some of my
music.
545
00:34:48,750 --> 00:34:49,750
You and Katie?
546
00:34:49,909 --> 00:34:50,909
Your music?
547
00:34:51,230 --> 00:34:56,510
Yeah, I have a Christmas concert
tomorrow night at the Charleston Atrium
548
00:34:56,510 --> 00:34:57,510
string quartet.
549
00:34:57,890 --> 00:35:02,210
Katie could hear how the professionals
do it, and you could see what classical
550
00:35:02,210 --> 00:35:04,970
music is all about. If you want.
551
00:35:06,130 --> 00:35:08,010
You know, Katie and I, we...
552
00:35:08,879 --> 00:35:12,520
We don't get out. Yeah, I shouldn't
have. But you know what? That's all the
553
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:13,520
reason we should.
554
00:35:14,300 --> 00:35:15,300
I'd love to.
555
00:35:15,620 --> 00:35:16,900
And I know Katie would, too.
556
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:19,720
Okay, great.
557
00:35:29,100 --> 00:35:30,100
Butterflies.
558
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:32,580
We're like a flock of birds.
559
00:35:38,740 --> 00:35:39,740
Okay, pal.
560
00:35:44,820 --> 00:35:46,600
This is like professional.
561
00:35:47,340 --> 00:35:50,600
Sean, and this must be the talented
Katie.
562
00:35:51,340 --> 00:35:52,340
I'm Tim.
563
00:35:52,460 --> 00:35:53,460
That's that.
564
00:35:53,540 --> 00:35:56,560
Tim, we were sorry to hear about Joanna.
565
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:58,360
She's one of a kind.
566
00:35:59,620 --> 00:36:03,320
And I know how hard it can be this time
of year. If there's anything we can do
567
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:04,320
for you.
568
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,460
Very kind. Thank you.
569
00:38:26,570 --> 00:38:28,030
Beth, are you all right? Sorry.
570
00:38:29,370 --> 00:38:33,350
I haven't played like that in long time,
years, maybe.
571
00:38:33,650 --> 00:38:34,730
You played beautifully.
572
00:38:35,630 --> 00:38:36,630
Thank you.
573
00:38:36,790 --> 00:38:38,710
Thank you. It felt effortless.
574
00:38:39,730 --> 00:38:42,810
Have you ever considered... What?
575
00:38:43,190 --> 00:38:47,930
Look, the second chair of the first
violins is coming available in the
576
00:38:47,930 --> 00:38:48,930
orchestra.
577
00:38:49,250 --> 00:38:51,170
Auditions come around once a decade.
578
00:38:51,850 --> 00:38:54,890
I could put your name in. I can reserve
you a spot if you want.
579
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:04,080
Oh, hey.
580
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:06,780
Aw, thanks.
581
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:09,020
This is what we do.
582
00:39:09,740 --> 00:39:11,780
Good to hear it with professional
players, huh?
583
00:39:12,420 --> 00:39:13,420
It is.
584
00:39:15,020 --> 00:39:16,740
Wasn't too stuffy for you?
585
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:18,600
You were fantastic.
586
00:39:19,220 --> 00:39:20,580
A natural with that group.
587
00:39:21,860 --> 00:39:25,220
And I must admit, it is good to hear
that kind of music in West Virginia.
588
00:39:25,660 --> 00:39:26,660
Oh.
589
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:28,480
Here's our star.
590
00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:29,880
You all set? Yes.
591
00:39:30,380 --> 00:39:32,100
I can't wait for our next lesson, Beth.
592
00:39:32,540 --> 00:39:33,540
Bye. Bye.
593
00:39:33,900 --> 00:39:34,900
Bye -bye.
594
00:39:35,340 --> 00:39:37,360
You were amazing. I'm so proud of you.
595
00:39:37,580 --> 00:39:38,820
Thanks for being here.
596
00:40:03,810 --> 00:40:08,630
Heart to a feeling.
597
00:40:14,550 --> 00:40:16,470
Your face. Try not to tilt your head.
598
00:40:17,350 --> 00:40:18,630
Violin parallel to the ground.
599
00:40:18,850 --> 00:40:19,850
And again.
600
00:40:21,870 --> 00:40:24,830
I'm sorry. All those things you're
saying is getting jumbled in my head.
601
00:40:25,170 --> 00:40:26,170
That's okay.
602
00:40:26,470 --> 00:40:27,710
Take a breath. You'll get there.
603
00:40:28,950 --> 00:40:31,510
Your mom used to make us close our eyes
when we got stuck.
604
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,000
I like that.
605
00:40:34,540 --> 00:40:35,540
Let's try that
606
00:41:08,270 --> 00:41:09,270
That was outstanding.
607
00:41:10,910 --> 00:41:11,910
You deserve a break.
608
00:41:12,770 --> 00:41:13,770
Why'd you pick the violin?
609
00:41:14,830 --> 00:41:18,590
Well, the fiddle made me want to dance,
and my mom said if I'm going to learn an
610
00:41:18,590 --> 00:41:21,890
instrument, I need to master techniques.
No one could question me later.
611
00:41:22,270 --> 00:41:23,270
Wise words.
612
00:41:23,990 --> 00:41:24,990
Do you love it?
613
00:41:25,030 --> 00:41:28,730
I put it down for a while, but I picked
it back up from my mom, and now I really
614
00:41:28,730 --> 00:41:29,368
love it.
615
00:41:29,370 --> 00:41:30,530
Well, you're already so good.
616
00:41:30,770 --> 00:41:31,770
Thanks.
617
00:41:32,030 --> 00:41:35,370
The other day when I saw you playing, it
made me really happy because...
618
00:41:35,790 --> 00:41:39,410
When I see the videos of all the famous
violinists, none of them look like me.
619
00:41:39,750 --> 00:41:41,530
And then I thought I chose the wrong
instrument.
620
00:41:42,350 --> 00:41:44,250
I used to feel the same way.
621
00:41:45,490 --> 00:41:49,070
But then I realized that it's okay to
choose your own path.
622
00:41:49,730 --> 00:41:56,410
So if violin or drums or any other
instrument ignites something in you,
623
00:41:56,410 --> 00:41:57,410
promised me you'd follow it.
624
00:41:58,010 --> 00:41:59,010
I promise.
625
00:42:00,650 --> 00:42:02,670
My dad and I don't talk about stuff like
this.
626
00:42:02,890 --> 00:42:03,890
Or about my mom.
627
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:05,840
But my grandma helps me remember her.
628
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,480
Like all the fun stuff we used to do at
Christmas, my mom made the best
629
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,360
Christmases. What would she do?
630
00:42:12,060 --> 00:42:15,520
She used to make things like ornaments,
decorations, cookies.
631
00:42:16,100 --> 00:42:20,400
My dad forgets the fun stuff. Like, he
surprised me with a tree, but we haven't
632
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:21,400
decorated it yet.
633
00:42:23,620 --> 00:42:28,960
How about if after our next lesson, we
ditch these candy canes and we make you
634
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:30,180
an angel tree topper instead?
635
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,660
You can make one that looks like your
mom.
636
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:35,080
That'd be fun.
637
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,280
Okay, good.
638
00:42:37,700 --> 00:42:41,320
Does your dad know how lucky he is to
have you?
639
00:42:41,700 --> 00:42:42,700
I think he does.
640
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:45,200
Let's get back at it.
641
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:49,680
Hello?
642
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:50,840
Hey, Dad.
643
00:42:51,720 --> 00:42:52,720
Are those our ornaments?
644
00:42:53,020 --> 00:42:56,800
Uh -huh. And I thought we could order
pizza while we decorate the tree. How
645
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:57,399
that sound?
646
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,060
Sounds good. Can Beth help, too?
647
00:43:01,100 --> 00:43:02,780
Yeah, we could use an extra set of
hands.
648
00:43:03,390 --> 00:43:04,390
If she's gay?
649
00:43:04,950 --> 00:43:09,830
All he listens to is country. Turns out,
you're a snob, too.
650
00:43:10,350 --> 00:43:11,950
Ooh, burn, Dad.
651
00:43:12,230 --> 00:43:16,450
I love the string quartet. It's just
that classical music, it's...
652
00:43:16,940 --> 00:43:21,440
Well, it's stuffy. Classical composers
were the original rebels and rule
653
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:22,600
breakers of their time.
654
00:43:22,860 --> 00:43:24,900
Okay, but there's so many rules.
655
00:43:25,380 --> 00:43:29,360
Well, you follow rules in your music,
right? Same instruments for every song.
656
00:43:29,740 --> 00:43:35,440
Guitar, bass, drums, fiddle. Same theme,
same length for radio.
657
00:43:35,660 --> 00:43:40,620
Okay, okay, but when I play, I play from
my heart. I play because it moves me.
658
00:43:40,660 --> 00:43:45,020
You know, I'm not following rules and...
The music...
659
00:43:46,090 --> 00:43:49,290
It can inspire me. It can be anything.
660
00:43:50,050 --> 00:43:52,830
Yeah, I'm sure Beethoven would agree
with that.
661
00:43:55,790 --> 00:43:59,790
I was thinking about getting some
classical music for Katie for her
662
00:43:59,790 --> 00:44:02,150
gift. Yeah, I can recommend some
downloads.
663
00:44:02,810 --> 00:44:04,710
You know, I was actually thinking
albums.
664
00:44:05,010 --> 00:44:06,470
Something vintage, vinyl.
665
00:44:08,370 --> 00:44:13,570
You know, maybe you could meet me at the
Major Key Music shop.
666
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,700
And Katie's getting serious about this
classical music thing. I want to know
667
00:44:17,700 --> 00:44:18,700
what I'm talking about.
668
00:44:20,140 --> 00:44:21,140
Sure.
669
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:22,600
Sounds fun.
670
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:24,640
Okay.
671
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:31,460
Ruthie. Ruthie. This is Katie's violin
teacher.
672
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,300
Ruthie. Hi.
673
00:44:34,660 --> 00:44:35,660
Beth.
674
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:37,360
John's daughter.
675
00:44:37,620 --> 00:44:41,400
Yeah. I was so sorry about your mother's
passing.
676
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:43,460
Her service was beautiful.
677
00:44:44,170 --> 00:44:46,110
Well, it was very nice to finally meet
you.
678
00:44:46,430 --> 00:44:48,850
Thank you for dinner, and I'll see you
tomorrow?
679
00:44:49,110 --> 00:44:53,170
Yeah. Merry Christmas, Ruthie. Good luck
with the choir. Thank you.
680
00:44:53,710 --> 00:44:55,110
Merry Christmas to you.
681
00:44:55,750 --> 00:44:56,990
Come by any time.
682
00:44:59,390 --> 00:45:00,470
See you tomorrow.
683
00:45:01,790 --> 00:45:04,830
Sounds like more than a violin teacher
to me.
684
00:45:06,230 --> 00:45:07,230
Oh,
685
00:45:10,410 --> 00:45:12,070
I love the Nutcracker.
686
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:14,720
Maybe I should do a piece from this.
687
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,160
This was my favorite. This was the very
first concert that my mom took me to.
688
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:24,080
The Nutcracker. That was the first
concert you ever went to? Yes.
689
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,920
My parents were season ticket holders to
the orchestra.
690
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,720
My dream was to play with them. That's
why I joined the youth orchestra.
691
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:35,880
I was one of those audition kids always
trying to get the scholarship.
692
00:45:36,910 --> 00:45:41,490
I was actually given a fellowship to New
York's Ruston, you know, the theater
693
00:45:41,490 --> 00:45:42,530
school for New York. Yeah.
694
00:45:43,170 --> 00:45:47,630
Yeah. I know what that is. It's a big
deal. Oh, yeah. Well, they usually pick
695
00:45:47,630 --> 00:45:53,250
couple of kids to join as apprentices in
the orchestra. I was not chosen, but I
696
00:45:53,250 --> 00:45:54,790
never gave up.
697
00:45:55,170 --> 00:45:56,610
Did you want to stay in New York?
698
00:45:57,170 --> 00:46:00,850
Well, the chances of getting a job are
higher if you're there, because all the
699
00:46:00,850 --> 00:46:02,910
regional orchestras, they audition in
New York.
700
00:46:04,710 --> 00:46:09,780
Yeah. Sure, but that's not what I asked.
701
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,980
The Chamber Orchestra is like the
Supreme Court. Someone has to die for a
702
00:46:14,980 --> 00:46:15,980
to open up.
703
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:17,280
Well, except now that.
704
00:46:20,340 --> 00:46:22,420
What if you get it?
705
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:25,360
I don't know.
706
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,360
It's only these past few months I've
been able to see Charleston through new
707
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:30,360
eyes.
708
00:46:31,860 --> 00:46:32,860
That's a good title.
709
00:46:34,030 --> 00:46:35,030
Through new eyes.
710
00:46:35,770 --> 00:46:37,350
Well, it's yours if you're writing.
711
00:46:38,730 --> 00:46:39,730
Are you writing?
712
00:46:41,350 --> 00:46:43,310
Well, trying to.
713
00:46:44,650 --> 00:46:48,390
It might be hard for you to see, but you
influence a lot of people.
714
00:46:49,730 --> 00:46:50,730
You're really lucky.
715
00:46:51,250 --> 00:46:52,330
Wish I could do that.
716
00:46:52,730 --> 00:46:53,770
Well, you do do that.
717
00:46:54,870 --> 00:46:58,510
With Katie. I mean, you have an
influence on her. After she saw you
718
00:46:58,510 --> 00:47:02,230
the quartet, she couldn't stop talking
about you.
719
00:47:03,180 --> 00:47:05,660
I think seeing you made something click.
720
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:08,740
Made it seem possible for her.
721
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:15,000
Yeah. Yeah, she told me that, but I
didn't think of it as influence so much
722
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:16,180
understanding.
723
00:47:17,100 --> 00:47:18,860
Well, maybe those are the same things.
724
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:24,160
Success. Three other stores are
confirmed for a donation to the silent
725
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,920
Office supplies, dress shop, and
hardware store.
726
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,100
Amazing. For the recital? Yes.
727
00:47:30,870 --> 00:47:32,770
Everyone's getting into the Christmas
spirit.
728
00:47:33,330 --> 00:47:34,330
How I like it.
729
00:47:35,950 --> 00:47:39,910
All right, well, maybe we should find
Katie's gift. We have procrastinated
730
00:47:39,910 --> 00:47:40,910
enough. Yeah.
731
00:47:44,790 --> 00:47:46,170
So what do you think you're going to
get?
732
00:47:47,130 --> 00:47:48,170
Hey, Dad, I'm back.
733
00:47:48,430 --> 00:47:50,670
Do you want to see what I got for our
angel tree recipients?
734
00:47:51,710 --> 00:47:52,710
Sure.
735
00:47:53,630 --> 00:47:54,630
What's wrong?
736
00:47:54,830 --> 00:47:58,210
I was working the numbers, and we're
definitely going to need more than just
737
00:47:58,210 --> 00:48:01,370
school neighborhood to turn out if we're
going to buy the instruments that Haley
738
00:48:01,370 --> 00:48:02,370
gave us on that list.
739
00:48:03,430 --> 00:48:05,670
You think we overpromised?
740
00:48:06,490 --> 00:48:08,130
Anything we raise is going to be a win.
741
00:48:09,350 --> 00:48:10,850
Don't worry, you'll get used to it.
742
00:48:11,390 --> 00:48:13,690
This will be an annual event, after all.
743
00:48:14,150 --> 00:48:15,810
Yeah. Whose idea was that again?
744
00:48:16,270 --> 00:48:17,270
That was yours.
745
00:48:17,670 --> 00:48:18,670
Yeah.
746
00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:20,430
You're right.
747
00:48:20,810 --> 00:48:21,810
We got this.
748
00:48:22,030 --> 00:48:23,030
Got this.
749
00:48:24,810 --> 00:48:28,070
So the reindeer, huh? Yeah.
750
00:48:28,450 --> 00:48:29,450
Cute, huh?
751
00:48:29,950 --> 00:48:30,950
Ludwig.
752
00:48:31,270 --> 00:48:32,270
Oh.
753
00:48:34,610 --> 00:48:36,330
Ludwig. I know this.
754
00:48:37,230 --> 00:48:39,150
Ludwig Van something. It's Van.
755
00:48:40,510 --> 00:48:41,710
Ludwig Van Dam.
756
00:48:42,870 --> 00:48:43,870
Hey,
757
00:48:45,090 --> 00:48:48,010
speaking of classical music, I like
Beth.
758
00:48:48,270 --> 00:48:49,270
I love her.
759
00:48:49,350 --> 00:48:50,710
She's so smart and nice.
760
00:48:51,250 --> 00:48:52,250
You love her?
761
00:48:53,290 --> 00:48:54,290
Yeah.
762
00:48:54,529 --> 00:48:57,390
Well, we were talking about Mom, and
she's going to bring over some crafts
763
00:48:57,390 --> 00:49:01,790
later. It's going to be so cool. You,
uh, you were talking about Mom?
764
00:49:03,130 --> 00:49:04,130
Yeah.
765
00:49:06,190 --> 00:49:07,190
It's a big deal.
766
00:49:08,010 --> 00:49:09,330
Beth and I have a lot in common.
767
00:49:09,590 --> 00:49:15,590
Like, she lost her mom, too, and
Christmas makes us both a little sad.
768
00:49:17,210 --> 00:49:18,230
Christmas makes you sad?
769
00:49:20,370 --> 00:49:21,370
A little.
770
00:49:22,569 --> 00:49:24,730
Katie, you know you can talk to me about
these things.
771
00:49:26,270 --> 00:49:27,610
You're not mad, are you?
772
00:49:28,230 --> 00:49:29,230
Katie can't.
773
00:49:32,050 --> 00:49:35,250
Just don't be so quick to let people in,
okay?
774
00:49:36,730 --> 00:49:37,730
Okay.
775
00:49:39,210 --> 00:49:40,210
Hello.
776
00:49:40,510 --> 00:49:42,730
Katie told me to meet you guys down
here. Whoa.
777
00:49:43,530 --> 00:49:44,590
This place is cool.
778
00:49:45,470 --> 00:49:46,690
So big and open.
779
00:49:47,330 --> 00:49:49,590
Hi. Hi, Beth. Why don't you go wash up?
780
00:49:50,270 --> 00:49:51,270
Okay.
781
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:56,160
I was thinking on our break, Katie and I
would make angel tree toppers as a
782
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,380
treat. I don't think that's such a good
idea.
783
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:02,600
I think you and I need to have a talk.
784
00:50:04,580 --> 00:50:05,580
Okay.
785
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,340
I don't understand why you're so upset.
Is it something I did?
786
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,400
Talking about Allison and Katie's
lesson.
787
00:50:16,100 --> 00:50:19,980
Okay, well, students and teachers often
bond over things besides...
788
00:50:20,270 --> 00:50:21,570
Notes in both positions.
789
00:50:21,850 --> 00:50:22,850
That is not my experience.
790
00:50:25,250 --> 00:50:29,350
Maybe not your teacher's, but... Look,
my career makes it hard for me to give
791
00:50:29,350 --> 00:50:30,510
child a normal life.
792
00:50:31,910 --> 00:50:33,530
Especially now on my own.
793
00:50:34,510 --> 00:50:38,250
When you started, I asked you, I told
you to respect our privacy.
794
00:50:40,050 --> 00:50:42,890
Yeah, well, it's an innocent
conversation.
795
00:50:43,610 --> 00:50:47,050
I haven't said anything about you or
Katie to anyone.
796
00:50:48,890 --> 00:50:49,890
She's...
797
00:50:50,290 --> 00:50:54,190
Just an 11 -year -old who misses her
mom, and she found someone who
798
00:50:57,010 --> 00:50:58,010
I understand.
799
00:51:01,550 --> 00:51:03,610
Maybe she has a hard time talking to you
about it.
800
00:51:06,550 --> 00:51:11,890
Sean, I think you're a really incredible
father, and you know what's right for
801
00:51:11,890 --> 00:51:14,530
your daughter. So I don't want to be
anywhere that I'm not welcome.
802
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:20,480
I think I should take a step back from
the lesson.
803
00:51:22,460 --> 00:51:23,460
Okay.
804
00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:30,600
And, um, just for the record, I thought
we were getting something.
805
00:51:34,100 --> 00:51:36,460
Beth. Would you tell Katie I'm sorry?
806
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:39,720
I really enjoy playing with her.
807
00:51:44,240 --> 00:51:47,300
I need my lesson. I know, but just not
today.
808
00:51:47,580 --> 00:51:48,580
When?
809
00:51:49,660 --> 00:51:51,260
We'll pick it up in a bit.
810
00:51:53,100 --> 00:51:57,120
Beth knows stuff. Beth plays with me.
Beth talks to me.
811
00:52:00,700 --> 00:52:07,700
Katie, I... Okay.
812
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:15,000
Sometimes I feel like I'm closer to Mom
than I am to you, which makes me sad
813
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,560
because you're the one who's here.
814
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,360
Sometimes, because your mom's not here,
I get scared of saying or doing the
815
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:30,360
wrong thing.
816
00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:35,540
And your grandma thinks that I could do
a better job about letting you know how
817
00:52:35,540 --> 00:52:36,540
I feel.
818
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,020
It's okay, Dad. You're the one who told
me no one's perfect.
819
00:52:46,540 --> 00:52:48,720
So when you're making mistakes, you can
try again.
820
00:52:49,300 --> 00:52:50,300
I'll tell you.
821
00:53:20,460 --> 00:53:21,760
So what's your favorite class?
822
00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:23,300
Music, definitely.
823
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,300
Of course, music.
824
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:26,960
Hey,
825
00:53:27,380 --> 00:53:29,940
Miss Lim, this is the guitar my dad
signed to donate to the auction.
826
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,000
Wow, thank you. This is great.
827
00:53:32,500 --> 00:53:33,800
Thank you, Katie.
828
00:53:34,100 --> 00:53:35,700
Bye -bye. Bye, Grandma.
829
00:53:36,220 --> 00:53:40,360
Ruthie, you are a lifesaver. I'm so
happy to have you on board volunteering.
830
00:53:40,700 --> 00:53:41,820
Oh, it's my pleasure.
831
00:53:42,700 --> 00:53:46,020
I've been looking for something new to
sink my teeth into.
832
00:53:46,240 --> 00:53:48,440
You know, help me get my groove back.
833
00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,000
So how have things been for you lately?
834
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:56,380
Oh, I mean, with the recital and
donations and teaching, I just hope they
835
00:53:56,380 --> 00:53:57,620
replacement for Joanna soon.
836
00:53:57,980 --> 00:54:02,640
Okay. So what would you like me to do? I
need 30 copies of today's sheet music.
837
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:09,960
Oh, here she is.
838
00:54:11,300 --> 00:54:12,300
Ready?
839
00:54:58,730 --> 00:55:02,350
I couldn't really get a read on them and
felt a little nervous and in my head.
840
00:55:02,430 --> 00:55:05,290
So I'll talk to you when I come.
841
00:55:05,770 --> 00:55:12,450
I was going to call you tonight, but
we've decided to hold a second audition
842
00:55:12,450 --> 00:55:14,010
you and another player.
843
00:55:15,950 --> 00:55:17,270
So when I come back?
844
00:55:18,210 --> 00:55:20,990
Bring along the player who was at the
quartet.
845
00:55:21,670 --> 00:55:24,750
You know, the one who played with heart,
with joy.
846
00:55:27,690 --> 00:55:28,690
Thank you, Linda.
847
00:55:37,250 --> 00:55:38,870
Katie. Hey.
848
00:55:41,030 --> 00:55:42,690
Can we put her on the tree?
849
00:55:47,930 --> 00:55:49,090
Did you make this?
850
00:55:49,490 --> 00:55:50,490
Yeah.
851
00:55:57,870 --> 00:55:58,870
How's that look?
852
00:55:59,330 --> 00:56:00,330
Really good.
853
00:56:01,390 --> 00:56:02,390
Okay.
854
00:56:05,610 --> 00:56:06,610
Wow.
855
00:56:11,430 --> 00:56:12,970
Beautiful. Yeah.
856
00:56:18,590 --> 00:56:21,670
Welcome to the Christmas Fair.
857
00:56:22,330 --> 00:56:26,970
I am a music teacher at Bluffside
Elementary, and we are having our big
858
00:56:26,970 --> 00:56:28,730
recital on the 22nd.
859
00:56:29,290 --> 00:56:33,330
We're going to start an instrument fund
in honor of Miss Joanna Hendrick, the
860
00:56:33,330 --> 00:56:35,330
music teacher and champion who we all
miss this year.
861
00:56:38,130 --> 00:56:42,670
And to give you a little preview of the
recital, I'll now have my fifth graders
862
00:56:42,670 --> 00:56:43,670
join me on stage.
863
00:56:46,430 --> 00:56:48,830
I'm real nervous about the recital.
864
00:56:49,290 --> 00:56:52,990
We can always just stay home and have
our own little concert, just the two of
865
00:56:52,990 --> 00:56:53,990
us.
866
00:56:57,330 --> 00:56:58,330
You know something?
867
00:56:59,670 --> 00:57:01,910
I used to have terrible stage fright.
868
00:57:03,810 --> 00:57:05,230
You're making that up. No, it's true.
869
00:57:06,090 --> 00:57:08,830
But you did all those shows and all that
touring.
870
00:57:09,990 --> 00:57:11,610
Yeah, and I was terrified every time.
871
00:57:11,950 --> 00:57:12,970
Seriously? Mm -hmm.
872
00:57:13,950 --> 00:57:14,950
Then how'd you do it?
873
00:57:15,490 --> 00:57:17,330
Well, when your mom and I first started
dating.
874
00:57:19,310 --> 00:57:22,990
I invited her backstage before one of my
shows. I gave her the whole VIP
875
00:57:22,990 --> 00:57:28,870
treatment. But right before I went on, I
admitted to her that I was nervous.
876
00:57:30,390 --> 00:57:34,810
And she said something that I think of
before every concert. You know what that
877
00:57:34,810 --> 00:57:36,010
was? What?
878
00:57:38,130 --> 00:57:39,130
Stop it.
879
00:57:39,290 --> 00:57:40,410
You loved it.
880
00:57:40,870 --> 00:57:45,950
And when you remember that, your fears
fade. Because when you love something,
881
00:57:46,150 --> 00:57:48,590
there's nothing to be scared about.
882
00:57:49,660 --> 00:57:53,420
And when in doubt, you can look out in
the audience and know that I will always
883
00:57:53,420 --> 00:57:55,780
be there cheering you on.
884
00:57:57,720 --> 00:57:58,720
Okay. Okay.
885
00:57:59,100 --> 00:58:00,100
Deal. Deal.
886
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:04,160
Beth!
887
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:05,360
Hi!
888
00:58:05,620 --> 00:58:09,560
Midland wants me to play next to last in
the recital, so right before you. Can
889
00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,080
you come over tomorrow so I can
practice?
890
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:13,400
We'd love to have you back.
891
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:15,920
Pick up where you left off.
892
00:58:18,319 --> 00:58:20,360
Is that what everyone wants?
893
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,680
Listen, I want to apologize for the
other day. I'm sorry.
894
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:30,220
Your privacy, I crossed the line. No,
you didn't. I overreacted.
895
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,140
Katie, excited about the big show?
896
00:58:36,420 --> 00:58:40,280
Um, mostly nervous, but I'm going to try
and play with joy, like Miss Hendricks
897
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:41,280
always said.
898
00:58:41,460 --> 00:58:44,280
Can I introduce you to my friend? She
plays the drums in the recital.
899
00:58:45,020 --> 00:58:46,020
Yes, please.
900
00:58:52,940 --> 00:58:53,940
Can I be one of those?
901
00:58:54,340 --> 00:58:55,340
Yeah.
902
00:58:58,620 --> 00:58:59,880
Does it ever get easier?
903
00:59:00,780 --> 00:59:01,780
Yes.
904
00:59:02,900 --> 00:59:03,900
And no.
905
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:06,460
But mostly yes.
906
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:37,040
Christmas.
907
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:27,399
Sean, hi.
908
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:31,140
Before you say anything else, I owe you
a better apology.
909
01:00:32,940 --> 01:00:33,940
We spoke.
910
01:00:34,060 --> 01:00:35,160
It's water under the bridge.
911
01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:37,880
I want you to know that I do trust you.
912
01:00:39,340 --> 01:00:42,220
See, I've been working on this song, and
when I finished it, the first person I
913
01:00:42,220 --> 01:00:45,280
wanted to share it with was all of you.
914
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:49,000
Let me in?
915
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:51,960
Yeah.
916
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:07,360
Ain't it funny how string lights and
snow on the ground can
917
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,620
open your heart to a feeling?
918
01:01:13,420 --> 01:01:20,220
Surrounded by loved ones, some old and
some new, I see a star on
919
01:01:20,220 --> 01:01:23,100
the tree touch the ceiling.
920
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:30,240
I know Christmas ain't the same without
you, but that old... Let
921
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:35,300
me feel your love shining down.
922
01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:36,500
Let
923
01:01:36,500 --> 01:01:43,180
the
924
01:01:43,180 --> 01:01:46,620
Christmas bells ring through the town.
925
01:01:46,940 --> 01:01:49,520
Knowing you're still around.
926
01:02:00,620 --> 01:02:07,500
As a holiday memory, I met everyone next
to you.
927
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:15,300
And though this Christmas you're gone, I
can still feel you with me.
928
01:02:15,980 --> 01:02:20,060
We'll make those old memories brand new.
929
01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:26,960
Now I know Christmas ain't the same
without you, but that old mistletoe
930
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,020
lets me feel you.
931
01:03:07,810 --> 01:03:09,190
Wow. That's really good.
932
01:03:10,470 --> 01:03:11,470
Thank you.
933
01:03:12,290 --> 01:03:13,510
Wow, I love it.
934
01:03:15,190 --> 01:03:19,890
It's just the bridge isn't quite as
strong as the rest of the song yet.
935
01:03:20,620 --> 01:03:24,680
I think the turnaround isn't doing what
you want it to musically.
936
01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:26,920
You're offering me criticism?
937
01:03:27,420 --> 01:03:31,540
No. No, no, no, no, Sean. I love it.
938
01:03:32,180 --> 01:03:37,300
I love it. I just think that the bridge
could be better.
939
01:03:39,860 --> 01:03:44,180
I think I needed that.
940
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:48,700
The truth is, Allison was my...
941
01:03:49,490 --> 01:03:50,610
My harshest critic.
942
01:03:52,850 --> 01:03:55,310
My mother was so blunt.
943
01:03:55,590 --> 01:03:58,230
I just left her for that.
944
01:04:01,010 --> 01:04:02,410
Oh, I didn't even ask you.
945
01:04:03,690 --> 01:04:04,830
How'd your audition go?
946
01:04:05,970 --> 01:04:10,830
It was good. They didn't exactly give it
to me in the room, so there's a second
947
01:04:10,830 --> 01:04:11,830
audition.
948
01:04:14,730 --> 01:04:17,790
I have a bit of time before I pick up
Katie. Can I...
949
01:04:18,190 --> 01:04:19,190
Take you somewhere?
950
01:04:21,270 --> 01:04:22,890
Sure. Yeah.
951
01:04:28,710 --> 01:04:29,330
You
952
01:04:29,330 --> 01:04:41,390
know,
953
01:04:41,830 --> 01:04:45,070
my folks, they never understood music.
Or me, for that matter.
954
01:04:46,500 --> 01:04:48,060
Ruthie practically adopted me.
955
01:04:49,580 --> 01:04:52,160
You know, she's like the teacher.
Teacher you never had?
956
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:57,320
Oh,
957
01:05:00,700 --> 01:05:01,700
wonderful.
958
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:04,560
All right.
959
01:05:04,660 --> 01:05:06,540
Take a break. Get ready for the next
song.
960
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:10,140
Come on. Well, it's about time you
brought her by.
961
01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:12,259
Where's Katie?
962
01:05:12,260 --> 01:05:14,640
Well, actually, I got to pick up Katie
from a play date.
963
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:16,160
Can I give you a ride home?
964
01:05:16,740 --> 01:05:20,520
No, no, it's okay. I'll walk. I want to
watch some more and visit with Ruthie.
965
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:22,280
You sure? Yeah. Okay.
966
01:05:22,980 --> 01:05:24,040
Bye. Bye -bye.
967
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:29,180
You really have a way with the kids.
Wow.
968
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,980
I think it's all those years as a school
administrator paying off.
969
01:05:34,180 --> 01:05:36,900
Which is why I'm actually thinking about
your mom's old job.
970
01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:38,359
You are?
971
01:05:38,360 --> 01:05:39,279
Mm -hmm.
972
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:40,280
Ruthie, that's amazing.
973
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,960
The kids are really lucky to have you.
And I could say the same thing about
974
01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:45,960
Sean.
975
01:05:46,380 --> 01:05:47,380
Professional.
976
01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:52,320
Love may be blind, but I'm not.
977
01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:02,480
We're happy to have you back.
978
01:06:03,820 --> 01:06:05,960
So, the Russian dance again?
979
01:06:06,380 --> 01:06:10,460
Actually, I'll be playing Felix
Mendelssohn's Hark the Herald Angels
980
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:12,000
whenever you're ready.
981
01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:45,720
really like it because, Hershey, I think
I got more brewing.
982
01:06:47,300 --> 01:06:48,720
Yeah, I might be able to lick this
album.
983
01:06:50,540 --> 01:06:52,880
Yeah, just get back in the studio with
the crew.
984
01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:33,080
Thank you.
985
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:34,400
Beth, wait.
986
01:07:40,580 --> 01:07:47,500
We both thought your performance
987
01:07:47,500 --> 01:07:49,320
was heartfelt and moving.
988
01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:55,080
And, well, we'd like to offer you the
position.
989
01:07:56,580 --> 01:07:57,780
If you want it.
990
01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:09,480
Thank you. I just, um, I didn't realize
how happy that would make me.
991
01:08:10,140 --> 01:08:14,260
Well, we need to start right away,
because you'll be featured in our
992
01:08:14,260 --> 01:08:16,620
concert, December 22nd.
993
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:21,220
That's the same night as the Bluffside
recital.
994
01:08:21,819 --> 01:08:23,979
I'm so sorry, but we need you.
995
01:08:24,359 --> 01:08:26,319
It's the most important concert of the
year.
996
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:29,180
Proceeds fund the entire season.
997
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:32,439
Of course.
998
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:39,140
was supposed to be there for the kids
and Katie, you and mom.
999
01:08:40,700 --> 01:08:44,740
You dropped your whole life to come
back.
1000
01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:48,120
You spent months at your mother's side.
1001
01:08:48,660 --> 01:08:53,380
Some kids would come for the ceremony
and miss all the hard parts.
1002
01:08:54,180 --> 01:08:55,520
You did the hard part.
1003
01:08:58,380 --> 01:08:59,700
You can miss the recital.
1004
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:03,920
It's just one more person I have to
tell.
1005
01:09:08,850 --> 01:09:09,850
Hi. Hi.
1006
01:09:14,270 --> 01:09:19,210
Thank you.
1007
01:09:21,910 --> 01:09:23,149
Everything okay?
1008
01:09:24,149 --> 01:09:27,870
Yeah. I got some news to tell you.
1009
01:09:29,149 --> 01:09:30,149
Okay.
1010
01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:46,859
Well, Uncle Hirsch wants me to record
some of my new ideas.
1011
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:48,600
Cool.
1012
01:09:49,300 --> 01:09:52,939
The thing is, he wants me to record them
in Nashville.
1013
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,280
Wait, like, leave West Virginia?
1014
01:09:59,380 --> 01:10:00,380
For how long?
1015
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:05,960
Well, you know, it takes some time to
record an album, but we'd be back all
1016
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:08,400
time to see Grandma. I don't even have
friends in Nashville.
1017
01:10:08,700 --> 01:10:10,780
I know, I know you have friends here,
and it's just...
1018
01:10:12,010 --> 01:10:18,830
You know, when the music... But I guess
it's
1019
01:10:18,830 --> 01:10:22,350
probably going to be hard to get time in
the studio before Christmas anyway,
1020
01:10:22,530 --> 01:10:29,410
so... The
1021
01:10:29,410 --> 01:10:30,410
bell's on.
1022
01:10:34,750 --> 01:10:36,910
So you're not coming to my recital?
1023
01:10:38,310 --> 01:10:40,710
I just can't. I'm going to take this
job.
1024
01:10:41,950 --> 01:10:42,950
I'm so sorry.
1025
01:10:44,030 --> 01:10:45,630
It's okay. I'm happy for you.
1026
01:10:47,050 --> 01:10:48,150
You can say it.
1027
01:10:48,470 --> 01:10:52,230
I'm just nervous playing without you
there, especially since it's my last one
1028
01:10:52,230 --> 01:10:54,430
Bluffside. What are you talking about?
1029
01:10:56,130 --> 01:10:58,830
Ted and I are moving to Nashville
because of his music.
1030
01:11:04,010 --> 01:11:06,030
Your father knows what's best for you
both.
1031
01:11:06,710 --> 01:11:10,550
So we're just going to make it the best
recital ever.
1032
01:11:11,849 --> 01:11:12,849
Ready?
1033
01:11:13,210 --> 01:11:14,210
Bow up.
1034
01:11:14,630 --> 01:11:16,350
Back straight and breathe.
1035
01:11:17,610 --> 01:11:20,370
Your last session and your last student,
huh?
1036
01:11:20,970 --> 01:11:23,630
I guess that's true. I hadn't thought of
it like that.
1037
01:11:24,910 --> 01:11:27,290
Katie said you're moving back to
Nashville.
1038
01:11:28,650 --> 01:11:29,650
She told you?
1039
01:11:30,450 --> 01:11:31,450
Yeah.
1040
01:11:32,090 --> 01:11:36,350
Yeah, it's to record. I don't have a
studio here.
1041
01:11:38,630 --> 01:11:40,130
It's probably time for me to...
1042
01:11:40,780 --> 01:11:41,880
Come out of hibernation.
1043
01:11:43,380 --> 01:11:46,540
And we'll be back, but... Nashville will
be home?
1044
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:49,160
Yeah.
1045
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:52,760
Let me... Think.
1046
01:12:03,300 --> 01:12:07,980
Listen, I... I want to thank you for
everything you brought Katie.
1047
01:12:08,740 --> 01:12:10,180
It was more than I...
1048
01:12:10,410 --> 01:12:11,410
Thought she needed.
1049
01:12:12,010 --> 01:12:13,290
Music is the great connector.
1050
01:12:15,090 --> 01:12:16,090
And your honesty.
1051
01:12:17,910 --> 01:12:23,810
That used to be something that I looked
for in my music. I forgot... I forgot
1052
01:12:23,810 --> 01:12:25,450
how important it is in parenting, too.
1053
01:12:27,170 --> 01:12:28,170
You're a good teacher.
1054
01:12:29,850 --> 01:12:30,930
Not just for Katie.
1055
01:12:33,290 --> 01:12:34,510
Or, uh... Me, too.
1056
01:12:35,850 --> 01:12:37,330
What you said about...
1057
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:39,960
technique getting in the way of the joy
of playing.
1058
01:12:41,500 --> 01:12:42,500
You were right.
1059
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:44,600
That's the reason I got the job.
1060
01:12:45,580 --> 01:12:46,780
So, thank you.
1061
01:12:47,500 --> 01:12:48,500
I got a lot, too.
1062
01:12:54,260 --> 01:12:54,660
Good
1063
01:12:54,660 --> 01:13:02,000
luck
1064
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:03,000
with the orchestra.
1065
01:13:03,980 --> 01:13:04,980
Good luck in Nashville.
1066
01:13:05,980 --> 01:13:07,940
Remember, you've got one more fan here
in Charleston.
1067
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:45,600
Are these, um, digits for display?
1068
01:13:45,940 --> 01:13:46,940
No.
1069
01:13:47,020 --> 01:13:49,520
We had a surprise angel donor come to my
shop today.
1070
01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:51,560
Paid in full.
1071
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:52,680
Wait, what?
1072
01:13:53,340 --> 01:13:56,740
Let's just say I, too, have been asked
to keep things under wraps and literally
1073
01:13:56,740 --> 01:13:58,660
can't say who the angel donor is.
1074
01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:02,860
Sheila. Was it Sean?
1075
01:14:03,820 --> 01:14:05,240
It's totally Sean.
1076
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:11,200
It was his way of saying thank you to
the school, your mom, you.
1077
01:14:14,190 --> 01:14:16,110
He told me he's going back to Nashville.
1078
01:14:18,410 --> 01:14:22,310
Yeah. You go get in your fancy dress and
you go wallop that crowd.
1079
01:14:23,250 --> 01:14:27,890
Next time this whole crew's coming to
see you at Concert Hall, you're here to
1080
01:14:27,890 --> 01:14:29,350
stay. I love you.
1081
01:14:38,070 --> 01:14:39,070
What's this?
1082
01:14:40,290 --> 01:14:43,190
My first concert for the Youth
Orchestra. I was...
1083
01:14:44,590 --> 01:14:49,850
So my mom got me this music box as an
early Christmas gift just to remind me
1084
01:14:49,850 --> 01:14:52,350
there's angels everywhere that have my
back.
1085
01:14:53,050 --> 01:14:54,050
That's lovely.
1086
01:14:55,170 --> 01:14:58,090
Linda, would it be terrible if I missed
the reception?
1087
01:14:58,990 --> 01:15:02,330
Why? Do you not want to be introduced as
a new member of the ensemble?
1088
01:15:02,690 --> 01:15:03,690
No, I do.
1089
01:15:03,730 --> 01:15:08,770
I do, but if I take off right after the
concert, I might be able to make it to
1090
01:15:08,770 --> 01:15:10,170
my mom's recital before it ends.
1091
01:15:13,130 --> 01:15:17,270
How about the two of us sneak out right
after our bows?
1092
01:15:20,570 --> 01:15:21,750
Merry Christmas.
1093
01:15:22,630 --> 01:15:24,710
I hope you're all having a great night.
1094
01:15:25,130 --> 01:15:29,850
We are so excited to announce the new
head of the Bluffside Music Department,
1095
01:15:30,390 --> 01:15:33,470
Miss Ruthie Sampson.
1096
01:15:36,610 --> 01:15:39,990
Oh, thank you, thank you. Look at you.
1097
01:15:40,270 --> 01:15:42,570
You look as good as I feel.
1098
01:15:42,970 --> 01:15:46,530
And thank you very much for that warm
welcome.
1099
01:15:47,490 --> 01:15:52,170
Thank you also for continuing to support
our wonderful students.
1100
01:15:55,670 --> 01:16:02,670
I cannot tell you how proud and happy I
am to be taking over this wonderful
1101
01:16:02,670 --> 01:16:09,150
music program founded by my friend,
Johanna Hendricks.
1102
01:16:10,140 --> 01:16:14,720
Johanna was a special person, and
there's a lot that I could say about
1103
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:17,560
no one could say it better than her
husband.
1104
01:16:18,060 --> 01:16:20,940
So please, welcome Tim.
1105
01:16:30,340 --> 01:16:33,180
I thought a lot about what I wanted to
say about Johanna.
1106
01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:37,740
And I'll go through that saying, she was
much better at public speaking.
1107
01:16:39,020 --> 01:16:43,780
What Joanna wanted most was for everyone
to find the music in their lives.
1108
01:16:44,740 --> 01:16:49,260
She challenged every student to find
their voice, their music.
1109
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:53,440
She worked every day to make sure that
students could chase after their dreams
1110
01:16:53,440 --> 01:16:56,240
right here in Charleston and beyond.
1111
01:16:58,500 --> 01:17:02,820
For her, it was always about the people,
not you.
1112
01:17:04,420 --> 01:17:07,420
Joanna knew that she was not only
creating musicians,
1113
01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:10,800
She was creating a community.
1114
01:17:12,900 --> 01:17:14,440
That was her gift to us.
1115
01:17:15,540 --> 01:17:18,020
Well, how about some of that music,
shall we?
1116
01:17:26,440 --> 01:17:27,440
Let's go.
1117
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:37,800
And to close our recital tonight,
violinist Katie Grant.
1118
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:43,000
Yeah.
1119
01:18:59,050 --> 01:19:06,010
Good tidings to you, to you and your
family. We wish you a Merry Christmas
1120
01:19:06,010 --> 01:19:08,210
and a Happy New Year.
1121
01:19:08,710 --> 01:19:14,990
We wish you a Merry Christmas. We wish
you a Merry Christmas. We wish you a
1122
01:19:14,990 --> 01:19:18,470
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
1123
01:19:39,380 --> 01:19:40,920
Tonight was a blast.
1124
01:19:41,340 --> 01:19:43,280
That was a special moment. It really
was.
1125
01:19:43,720 --> 01:19:45,320
Here you go. Thank you.
1126
01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:52,440
With all the donations we raised
tonight, and because of our angel donor,
1127
01:19:52,440 --> 01:19:55,000
raised enough for this year's
instruments and two more years.
1128
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:56,320
Yes.
1129
01:19:57,080 --> 01:19:58,520
I know that you did.
1130
01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:00,920
I have no idea what you're talking
about.
1131
01:20:01,700 --> 01:20:04,900
Grandma, that's the angel tree chopper
roommate. It looks like Mom.
1132
01:20:05,980 --> 01:20:07,600
Oh, it's beautiful.
1133
01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:10,320
It really did come out beautifully.
1134
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:13,880
Well, thank you for bringing the
supplies over. Hey, Sean, when are you
1135
01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:16,640
get Katie on the drums? Oh, I start
lessons next week. That long?
1136
01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:17,880
Come on.
1137
01:20:18,480 --> 01:20:21,620
Get Beth on the fiddle. You guys got
yourselves an all -star band, huh?
1138
01:20:23,140 --> 01:20:26,400
Refill. I think my fiddling technique is
going to need a little more work.
1139
01:20:26,980 --> 01:20:28,320
Now it feels like Christmas.
1140
01:20:28,860 --> 01:20:29,860
Yes, Christmas.
1141
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:33,160
To music. To music teachers.
1142
01:20:33,460 --> 01:20:34,700
And to agents.
1143
01:20:36,660 --> 01:20:42,180
How many cookies is that?
1144
01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:44,060
Number three. Number three.
1145
01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:46,860
Okay, well, then there's probably room
for one more.
1146
01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:50,840
Katie Cat.
1147
01:20:53,220 --> 01:20:55,860
You are fantastic tonight.
1148
01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:57,520
Thanks.
1149
01:20:57,900 --> 01:20:59,860
This music thing is something...
1150
01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:01,280
You want to stick with?
1151
01:21:02,300 --> 01:21:03,300
I think so.
1152
01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:06,560
I'm so proud of you.
1153
01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:08,840
Oh, sorry.
1154
01:21:09,860 --> 01:21:12,420
No, I was just getting out more cookies.
1155
01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:14,380
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
1156
01:21:16,900 --> 01:21:17,900
Thanks.
1157
01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:19,180
Bet you just can't have one.
1158
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:26,140
I think you made a friend for life.
1159
01:21:28,900 --> 01:21:30,040
She's an amazing girl.
1160
01:21:31,340 --> 01:21:33,020
She feels the same way about you.
1161
01:21:36,220 --> 01:21:41,340
In fact, Katie and I were wondering if
you and your dad would like to join us
1162
01:21:41,340 --> 01:21:42,340
for Christmas dinner.
1163
01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:44,320
Really?
1164
01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:46,400
Yeah, that sounds lovely.
1165
01:21:47,120 --> 01:21:49,000
Sort of a farewell dinner.
1166
01:21:50,340 --> 01:21:54,340
Well, it turns out we're not going to
Nashville.
1167
01:21:56,780 --> 01:21:57,780
What?
1168
01:21:59,310 --> 01:22:04,550
What about recording? I decided to turn
the barn into a music studio.
1169
01:22:05,630 --> 01:22:08,430
That's why Hirsch is here. We're going
to figure out the plans.
1170
01:22:10,270 --> 01:22:11,550
Katie and I love it here.
1171
01:22:11,970 --> 01:22:15,130
And, well, we'd miss too much.
1172
01:22:18,670 --> 01:22:21,790
You know, I didn't think that this
Christmas would have any joy in it.
1173
01:22:23,850 --> 01:22:25,450
And you changed that for me.
1174
01:22:26,910 --> 01:22:28,330
You, Ruthie, and Katie.
1175
01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:30,960
Thank you.
1176
01:22:33,360 --> 01:22:35,000
You changed ours right back.
1177
01:22:38,300 --> 01:22:44,380
So, Christmas dinner, hmm? Yeah, and I
was wondering, in
1178
01:22:44,380 --> 01:22:51,200
the new year, if maybe you and I could
go hear some live music one
1179
01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:53,880
night? Are you asking me on a date?
1180
01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:56,600
Am I really that rusty?
1181
01:22:57,460 --> 01:22:59,380
Maybe if you practiced, you wouldn't be.
1182
01:23:03,810 --> 01:23:07,310
Beth Hendricks, would you go on a date
with me?
1183
01:23:09,130 --> 01:23:10,130
Music to my ears.
1184
01:23:29,710 --> 01:23:32,730
Next year, our house and Christmas
dinner with all our friends. You
1185
01:23:32,850 --> 01:23:33,829
Promise.
1186
01:23:33,830 --> 01:23:34,830
Next Saturday.
1187
01:23:35,910 --> 01:23:40,190
Sometimes you have to let go in order to
move forward. Okay, Pops. You ready to
1188
01:23:40,190 --> 01:23:40,889
sell the house?
1189
01:23:40,890 --> 01:23:41,889
Tori DeVito.
1190
01:23:41,890 --> 01:23:42,890
Dylan Bruce.
1191
01:23:43,050 --> 01:23:46,550
I just hired Joe to do the remodel on my
house.
1192
01:23:46,850 --> 01:23:48,150
This name will become your present.
1193
01:23:48,430 --> 01:23:52,590
And Patrick Duffy. If you're given a
second chance at love, you better grab
1194
01:23:52,650 --> 01:23:55,290
The Christmas Promise. Part of Miracles
of Christmas.
1195
01:23:55,710 --> 01:23:59,390
All new next Saturday at 10, only on
Hallmark Movies and Mysteries.
