Rip-Fixes-Sync
by VaVooM
2
00:00:47,251 --> 00:00:49,148
Keep your arms up.
Don't forget to smile.
3
00:00:49,183 --> 00:00:51,361
Nathan, you're still recovering.
Don't do the triple Axel.
4
00:00:51,385 --> 00:00:53,018
Yeah, I won't, I promise.
5
00:00:53,054 --> 00:00:54,531
Have an ice pack ready.
He's gonna try the triple Axel.
6
00:00:54,555 --> 00:00:56,889
- Get the ice.
- Perfect spiral.
7
00:00:56,924 --> 00:00:59,358
You were amazing!
8
00:00:59,393 --> 00:01:01,326
You know, I got a little
emotional out there,
9
00:01:01,362 --> 00:01:04,496
thinking that this is
our second-last show ever.
10
00:01:04,532 --> 00:01:07,232
You're not second-guessing
leaving the tour, are you?
11
00:01:07,268 --> 00:01:09,735
No, no, I'm not.
I'm so excited.
12
00:01:09,770 --> 00:01:11,570
We're finally gonna do it...
13
00:01:11,605 --> 00:01:14,339
buy an ice rink,
start our own training center.
14
00:01:14,375 --> 00:01:16,375
And after four years on tour,
finally be home.
15
00:01:16,410 --> 00:01:19,878
Be in the same place for more than
two days, have a real Christmas.
16
00:01:19,914 --> 00:01:22,281
- What's a real Christmas?
- I forget.
17
00:01:22,316 --> 00:01:24,716
Something that's not in a hotel
or on a tarmac.
18
00:01:24,752 --> 00:01:26,351
Right.
19
00:01:26,387 --> 00:01:28,065
I'm gonna get a tree
from the Miller's farm
20
00:01:28,089 --> 00:01:29,866
and take all my Christmas
decorations out of storage.
21
00:01:29,890 --> 00:01:32,124
I'll decorate the house
exactly like my mom used to.
22
00:01:32,696 --> 00:01:36,695
- I can't wait to finally be home.
- Me too.
23
00:01:36,730 --> 00:01:37,963
We should finish packing.
24
00:01:37,998 --> 00:01:39,376
We have to be at the airport
at 5:00.
25
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,034
Where are we going again?
Santa...
26
00:01:42,069 --> 00:01:44,703
- San Senova.
- San Senova, right.
27
00:01:46,006 --> 00:01:48,207
Tiny country,
big tourist destination.
28
00:01:48,242 --> 00:01:51,210
- I hope it's nice.
- It'll be great.
29
00:02:13,501 --> 00:02:15,434
- Thank you, Dawson.
- Sir.
30
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:17,236
Your Majesty.
31
00:02:17,271 --> 00:02:22,608
Nicholas, you've spent the last 30 years
as my best friend calling me "Alex".
32
00:02:22,643 --> 00:02:25,677
That's when you didn't
use more colorful names.
33
00:02:25,713 --> 00:02:28,147
Would you prefer
one of the more colorful names?
34
00:02:31,685 --> 00:02:32,951
Thank you, Paul.
35
00:02:32,987 --> 00:02:34,464
The west wing,
extensively refurbished
36
00:02:34,488 --> 00:02:37,523
by the late Christmas King and...
37
00:02:37,558 --> 00:02:40,025
Oh, sir, I'm so sorry.
38
00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:42,661
Didn't we discuss keeping
the tourists to the east wing?
39
00:02:42,696 --> 00:02:45,597
I'll inquire about it
again, sir.
40
00:02:49,403 --> 00:02:51,303
Where did that come from?
41
00:02:51,338 --> 00:02:55,340
Princess Christina requested
that it be placed in here.
42
00:02:55,376 --> 00:02:58,644
Why do I somehow think that
that relates to this?
43
00:02:58,679 --> 00:03:00,212
How is my father
the Christmas King,
44
00:03:00,247 --> 00:03:01,847
and I'm the Grinch King?
45
00:03:01,882 --> 00:03:05,217
Well, your father founded
the Christmas Market,
46
00:03:05,252 --> 00:03:07,152
and the caroling concert,
47
00:03:07,188 --> 00:03:09,221
and the holiday benefit
for the community center,
48
00:03:09,256 --> 00:03:12,791
while you, when asked about
your feelings towards Christmas,
49
00:03:12,826 --> 00:03:15,194
remarked that it's
"good for the economy".
50
00:03:15,229 --> 00:03:17,162
It is good for the economy.
51
00:03:17,198 --> 00:03:20,532
Alex, it's your third Christmas
as king of a country
52
00:03:20,568 --> 00:03:22,067
founded around the holiday,
53
00:03:22,102 --> 00:03:24,303
and you're yet to show
any Christmas cheer.
54
00:03:24,338 --> 00:03:26,316
I know that Christmas can be
a hard time for you, but...
55
00:03:26,340 --> 00:03:30,609
It's not hard.
Look, I'm just busy.
56
00:03:32,112 --> 00:03:33,579
Look who's here.
57
00:03:33,614 --> 00:03:36,081
I can see that I've
walked in on something.
58
00:03:36,116 --> 00:03:37,149
Hello, Aunt Patricia.
59
00:03:38,619 --> 00:03:43,755
The princess is wondering if you'll be
having dinner together tonight.
60
00:03:43,791 --> 00:03:46,758
You've got your meet-and-greet
with the dignitaries this evening.
61
00:03:46,794 --> 00:03:48,193
Can it be moved?
62
00:03:48,229 --> 00:03:50,562
It's already been
rescheduled twice.
63
00:03:52,866 --> 00:03:54,866
Tell her I'll do my best.
64
00:03:58,305 --> 00:04:01,006
This place is like
a storybook come to life.
65
00:04:01,041 --> 00:04:02,908
Yes, one where
my fairy godmother
66
00:04:02,943 --> 00:04:06,178
gives me a cute boy
and some mistletoe.
67
00:04:06,213 --> 00:04:08,280
They really love Christmas here.
68
00:04:08,315 --> 00:04:10,882
According to this, this country
was founded on Christmas Eve.
69
00:04:10,918 --> 00:04:13,719
There are nonstop
holiday events, traditions.
70
00:04:13,754 --> 00:04:16,088
There's even a tour
of a decorated palace.
71
00:04:16,123 --> 00:04:17,756
Unfortunately,
it's during our show time.
72
00:04:17,791 --> 00:04:19,524
There is a Christmas Market
we can visit.
73
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,860
Perfect. I knew I left
my Christmas shopping
74
00:04:21,895 --> 00:04:23,695
till the last minute
for a reason.
75
00:04:29,570 --> 00:04:31,937
Excuse me, ma'am,
is this dog yours?
76
00:04:31,972 --> 00:04:34,239
Oh, no, right.
I'm so sorry.
77
00:04:34,275 --> 00:04:37,209
- I turn around for one second...
- That's all right.
78
00:04:38,245 --> 00:04:39,278
Daddy!
79
00:04:40,814 --> 00:04:42,781
I'm so sorry about dinner.
80
00:04:42,816 --> 00:04:43,949
Tomorrow night, I promise.
81
00:04:46,620 --> 00:04:49,888
- How was your skating lesson?
- I'm learning a spiral.
82
00:04:49,923 --> 00:04:53,225
A spiral!
Marvelous.
83
00:04:53,260 --> 00:04:56,561
Perhaps I can come down tomorrow
and watch you practice.
84
00:04:56,597 --> 00:04:58,930
It's getting late.
It's time to sleep.
85
00:04:58,966 --> 00:05:01,433
But I haven't finished my movie.
86
00:05:01,468 --> 00:05:03,935
A Christmas movie.
87
00:05:03,971 --> 00:05:05,737
Well, let me guess how it ends,
88
00:05:05,773 --> 00:05:09,408
as there is only one fitting
ending for a Christmas story.
89
00:05:09,443 --> 00:05:13,979
The tree is lit,
the mistletoe is kissed under,
90
00:05:14,014 --> 00:05:16,014
and a merry Christmas
is had by all,
91
00:05:16,050 --> 00:05:19,851
and to all a good night.
92
00:05:19,887 --> 00:05:21,086
I love you, Tina-bear.
93
00:05:22,389 --> 00:05:23,555
I love you too.
94
00:05:29,263 --> 00:05:32,564
Daddy, it doesn't matter
what anyone says.
95
00:05:32,599 --> 00:05:34,633
You're not a Grinch.
96
00:05:37,638 --> 00:05:39,338
Good night, Christina.
97
00:05:48,482 --> 00:05:51,083
It does. Looks happy.
98
00:05:51,118 --> 00:05:53,452
There's nothing to worry about.
99
00:05:53,487 --> 00:05:56,421
You know, you'll make your
speech opening Christmas Market,
100
00:05:56,457 --> 00:06:00,092
shake some hands,
wish some Merry Christmases.
101
00:06:00,127 --> 00:06:02,527
It'll be good.
102
00:06:02,563 --> 00:06:04,229
Yeah, it'll be great.
103
00:06:04,264 --> 00:06:05,864
It's a chance to connect
with the people
104
00:06:05,899 --> 00:06:10,068
and move past this whole
Grinch King business.
105
00:06:10,104 --> 00:06:11,603
Who knows? After today,
106
00:06:11,638 --> 00:06:15,173
I might be known as
the second Christmas King.
107
00:06:19,613 --> 00:06:23,882
All right, you'll do great.
Just, you know, be yourself and...
108
00:06:23,917 --> 00:06:25,617
you know, speak from the heart.
109
00:06:25,652 --> 00:06:27,319
Just not sure I can do both.
110
00:06:27,354 --> 00:06:30,789
Well, then,
just stick to the speech.
111
00:06:30,824 --> 00:06:32,524
All right?
I'll go speak to the press.
112
00:06:41,769 --> 00:06:44,903
It's so magical.
Look at these decorations.
113
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,306
This is so cute.
114
00:06:49,309 --> 00:06:50,909
We should get it as a souvenir.
115
00:06:50,944 --> 00:06:53,178
It can be a good luck charm
for our skating arena.
116
00:06:53,213 --> 00:06:56,047
By the way, I spoke to a
real estate agency this morning.
117
00:06:56,083 --> 00:06:57,694
They're gonna start
looking for rinks for us.
118
00:06:57,718 --> 00:06:59,451
- That's great.
- Yeah.
119
00:06:59,486 --> 00:07:01,030
You should go get warmed up
for the show.
120
00:07:01,054 --> 00:07:02,298
I'll buy this.
I'll meet you there.
121
00:07:02,322 --> 00:07:04,956
Sounds good.
I'll see you soon.
122
00:07:04,992 --> 00:07:06,691
- Sorry.
- I'm so sorry.
123
00:07:36,690 --> 00:07:38,957
No. "Christmas honor".
124
00:07:38,992 --> 00:07:41,460
"Honor Christmas.
125
00:07:41,495 --> 00:07:43,995
Honor it with all my heart".
126
00:07:45,165 --> 00:07:47,399
I'm...
127
00:07:47,434 --> 00:07:49,601
- I must apologize.
- No, I'm sorry.
128
00:07:49,636 --> 00:07:50,814
I didn't see anyone
hiding there.
129
00:07:50,838 --> 00:07:54,439
- Well, I wasn't hiding.
- Right, of course.
130
00:07:54,475 --> 00:07:56,186
I mean, it kinda looked like
you were hiding.
131
00:07:56,210 --> 00:07:58,643
Really? And from whom
would I be hiding?
132
00:07:58,679 --> 00:08:01,279
I don't know,
the Christmas crowds?
133
00:08:01,315 --> 00:08:05,317
Hiding from Christmas.
If only that was an option.
134
00:08:05,352 --> 00:08:07,752
I take it you're not a fan
of the holiday.
135
00:08:07,788 --> 00:08:11,556
No, no, I am a fan.
Big fan. The biggest.
136
00:08:12,893 --> 00:08:16,795
I honor Christmas
with all my heart and...
137
00:08:16,830 --> 00:08:19,631
and...
138
00:08:19,666 --> 00:08:21,433
And try to keep
for all the year?
139
00:08:21,468 --> 00:08:22,801
Yes, that.
140
00:08:24,171 --> 00:08:26,037
That was very believable.
141
00:08:26,073 --> 00:08:29,307
Well, it was believable
because it's the truth.
142
00:08:29,343 --> 00:08:33,545
Blessed is the season where...
143
00:08:33,580 --> 00:08:37,282
Which engages the whole world
in a conspiracy of love.
144
00:08:37,317 --> 00:08:40,018
I knew it was something
to do with conspiracy.
145
00:08:40,053 --> 00:08:42,487
What are you, some sort
of Christmas quote book?
146
00:08:42,523 --> 00:08:45,690
- I just like Christmas.
- So I see.
147
00:08:45,726 --> 00:08:47,792
Well, whatever you're doing,
good luck.
148
00:08:47,828 --> 00:08:49,794
Hope you find
your Christmas cheer.
149
00:08:49,830 --> 00:08:52,063
Thank you,
and I don't need to find it
150
00:08:52,099 --> 00:08:54,332
because, well,
I'm brimming with it.
151
00:08:54,368 --> 00:08:59,304
Behold. Christmas waves
a magic wand across the world
152
00:08:59,339 --> 00:09:01,039
and makes everything
more beautiful.
153
00:09:02,175 --> 00:09:04,342
- Good luck.
- Well, I don't need luck.
154
00:09:09,416 --> 00:09:11,216
Okay, it's time.
155
00:09:11,251 --> 00:09:14,185
I told the press you'd do a quick
photo op before the speech,
156
00:09:14,221 --> 00:09:16,588
- Are you good?
- Yes.
157
00:09:16,623 --> 00:09:18,490
Great.
Okay, I'll see you on there.
158
00:09:23,196 --> 00:09:26,898
Hi. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
159
00:09:26,934 --> 00:09:30,902
Ladies and gentlemen,
King Alexander of San Senova.
160
00:10:03,737 --> 00:10:05,103
Merry Christmas.
161
00:10:08,342 --> 00:10:09,975
Good luck.
162
00:10:10,010 --> 00:10:12,377
You're gonna be great.
It's gonna be great.
163
00:10:13,614 --> 00:10:16,047
It's our last show.
164
00:10:16,083 --> 00:10:18,783
It's a good thing.
We're finally going home.
165
00:10:18,819 --> 00:10:20,819
I know. You're right.
166
00:10:20,854 --> 00:10:22,120
We'll have stability.
167
00:10:22,155 --> 00:10:23,755
- Yes.
- We'll plant roots.
168
00:10:23,790 --> 00:10:26,091
And we can finally
see some friends.
169
00:10:26,126 --> 00:10:29,494
Yes, and maybe even
start dating again.
170
00:10:29,529 --> 00:10:33,131
- I think the curtain's going up.
- Yeah, of course you do.
171
00:10:33,166 --> 00:10:35,433
- Good luck.
- Thank you.
172
00:10:47,547 --> 00:10:50,448
He was covered in plum pudding!
173
00:10:53,387 --> 00:10:56,321
- Are you excited about the show?
- Yes.
174
00:10:56,356 --> 00:10:58,189
Well, I've got a little
surprise for you.
175
00:10:58,225 --> 00:11:02,460
How about after the show we'll go
around and meet the skaters?
176
00:11:02,496 --> 00:11:04,429
- Really?
- Yes.
177
00:11:22,683 --> 00:11:23,683
Cheers!
178
00:11:25,318 --> 00:11:27,118
We did it!
179
00:11:27,154 --> 00:11:28,720
Congratulations.
180
00:11:28,755 --> 00:11:30,055
Thank you.
181
00:11:30,090 --> 00:11:31,556
That was so good.
182
00:11:31,591 --> 00:11:33,136
- You were beautiful, as always.
- Thank you.
183
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,860
Excuse me.
Hello, are you by any chance...
184
00:11:35,896 --> 00:11:37,662
Katie Hendricks!
185
00:11:37,698 --> 00:11:39,397
I am.
186
00:11:39,433 --> 00:11:41,900
- You must be Princess Patricia.
- How do you do?
187
00:11:41,935 --> 00:11:44,002
Thank you so much
for inviting us backstage.
188
00:11:44,037 --> 00:11:46,738
Of course. And you must be
Princess Christina.
189
00:11:46,773 --> 00:11:49,174
Just Christina.
190
00:11:49,209 --> 00:11:50,709
This is the talented
Jessica Lewis.
191
00:11:50,744 --> 00:11:52,488
- Lovely to meet you.
- Wonderful to meet you.
192
00:11:52,512 --> 00:11:54,746
- Wonderful show.
- Thank you so much.
193
00:11:54,781 --> 00:11:56,426
- It's so nice to meet you.
- It's nice to meet you.
194
00:11:56,450 --> 00:11:57,816
Should we curtsy?
195
00:11:57,851 --> 00:11:59,384
I can't believe I'm meeting you.
196
00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:02,053
You're a three-time
world champion.
197
00:12:02,089 --> 00:12:04,723
Didn't you almost
go to the Olympics?
198
00:12:04,758 --> 00:12:06,591
Almost.
199
00:12:06,626 --> 00:12:10,528
But you weren't in the show.
Did you stop skating?
200
00:12:10,564 --> 00:12:12,497
I did.
I just choreograph now.
201
00:12:12,532 --> 00:12:17,035
And by that, she means choreograph,
train, and constantly put out fires.
202
00:12:17,070 --> 00:12:19,904
Jessica, I'm a huge fan.
I love your routines.
203
00:12:19,940 --> 00:12:21,606
Thank you!
204
00:12:21,641 --> 00:12:24,509
I hear you're being coached.
Learning any new tricks?
205
00:12:24,544 --> 00:12:27,011
A spiral.
206
00:12:27,047 --> 00:12:29,247
Well, pro tip:
A good spiral's all about
207
00:12:29,282 --> 00:12:30,915
a great banana position.
208
00:12:30,951 --> 00:12:33,985
Could you show me?
I have a rink at the palace.
209
00:12:35,222 --> 00:12:38,123
You have a rink at the palace.
210
00:12:38,158 --> 00:12:41,059
We could skate.
I could give you a tour.
211
00:12:41,094 --> 00:12:44,129
Well, we were sad that
we missed the public tours.
212
00:12:44,164 --> 00:12:46,598
Well, then you must
come visit us.
213
00:12:46,633 --> 00:12:48,133
This afternoon?
214
00:12:48,168 --> 00:12:49,801
- Yeah, that would be great.
- Lovely!
215
00:12:49,836 --> 00:12:50,935
Thank you.
216
00:12:52,906 --> 00:12:55,473
This is San Senova's
first royal family.
217
00:12:55,509 --> 00:12:58,143
That painting is almost
500 years old.
218
00:12:58,178 --> 00:13:00,211
I actually think
I have that dress.
219
00:13:00,247 --> 00:13:03,815
And this is exactly
like our apartment.
220
00:13:03,850 --> 00:13:07,429
- Really? Where do you live?
- New Jersey.
221
00:13:08,163 --> 00:13:09,454
New Jersey.
222
00:13:09,489 --> 00:13:12,624
Excuse me.
Where's your ladies' room?
223
00:13:12,659 --> 00:13:16,728
It's up the stairs to the right,
third door on the left.
224
00:13:17,798 --> 00:13:19,130
Okay.
225
00:13:23,303 --> 00:13:25,303
Third door on the left.
226
00:13:29,376 --> 00:13:33,411
- You?
- You. What are you doing here?
227
00:13:34,648 --> 00:13:36,281
You're on a tour.
228
00:13:36,316 --> 00:13:39,584
Yeah, I got a little lost.
What are you doing here?
229
00:13:39,619 --> 00:13:42,921
Well, I work here.
230
00:13:42,956 --> 00:13:45,590
You work in the palace,
like for the king?
231
00:13:47,127 --> 00:13:48,560
Something like that.
232
00:13:49,863 --> 00:13:52,430
The king. Cool.
233
00:13:52,465 --> 00:13:53,698
What's he like?
234
00:13:55,436 --> 00:13:59,516
Magnanimous and beloved.
That sort of thing.
235
00:14:00,207 --> 00:14:02,707
Well, I'm sure it's amazing
to work in this palace.
236
00:14:02,742 --> 00:14:04,309
It's gorgeous.
237
00:14:04,344 --> 00:14:06,110
Although between you and me,
238
00:14:06,146 --> 00:14:08,880
I think it could do with a few
extra Christmas decorations.
239
00:14:08,915 --> 00:14:11,549
'Course you would.
240
00:14:11,585 --> 00:14:14,052
Well, I think it's
just perfect as it is.
241
00:14:14,087 --> 00:14:16,287
Of course you do.
242
00:14:16,323 --> 00:14:20,558
So can I help
with where you're headed?
243
00:14:20,594 --> 00:14:24,162
- Thanks, but I'm good.
- Of course you are.
244
00:14:33,773 --> 00:14:35,807
There you are.
245
00:14:35,842 --> 00:14:38,810
- Sorry. I got lost.
- Oh, no need to apologize.
246
00:14:38,845 --> 00:14:42,213
I've lived here my entire life,
and I still get lost.
247
00:14:42,249 --> 00:14:46,050
Now, Christina and Jessica are
at the rink, so I'll take us.
248
00:14:52,893 --> 00:14:54,192
I know.
249
00:14:54,227 --> 00:14:55,660
What?
250
00:15:05,972 --> 00:15:08,573
Christina, this is amazing.
251
00:15:12,479 --> 00:15:14,336
Do you ever put on shows here?
252
00:15:14,814 --> 00:15:15,814
No.
253
00:15:15,849 --> 00:15:20,485
Well, actually, my grandpa
did want to host a show here.
254
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,522
An ice skating pageant
for Founder's Day.
255
00:15:33,833 --> 00:15:37,068
- Daddy.
- I'm sorry I missed dinner.
256
00:15:37,103 --> 00:15:39,437
That's fine,
but I have a question.
257
00:15:39,472 --> 00:15:40,972
Yes?
258
00:15:41,007 --> 00:15:43,007
Do you remember how Grandpa
used to talk about
259
00:15:43,043 --> 00:15:45,243
hosting an ice skating pageant
for Founder's Day?
260
00:15:45,278 --> 00:15:48,146
Yes, the retelling of how
San Senova was founded.
261
00:15:48,181 --> 00:15:50,815
Well, what if we hosted it?
262
00:15:52,285 --> 00:15:53,918
That's a marvelous idea.
263
00:15:53,954 --> 00:15:55,920
We'll start planning
after Christmas.
264
00:15:55,956 --> 00:16:00,124
No, not for next Founder's Day.
For this Founder's Day.
265
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,860
Christina, Founder's Day
is on Christmas Eve,
266
00:16:02,896 --> 00:16:04,762
and that's two weeks away.
267
00:16:04,798 --> 00:16:06,664
A pageant would be
a massive production.
268
00:16:06,700 --> 00:16:08,633
But the figure skating stars
are here.
269
00:16:08,668 --> 00:16:11,536
Katie and Jessica came to the
rink today. They could do it.
270
00:16:11,571 --> 00:16:14,806
And I'll inquire with them
for next Founder's Day.
271
00:16:17,877 --> 00:16:21,612
But, Daddy, then you'll be the
Grinch King for a whole year,
272
00:16:21,648 --> 00:16:24,649
and that's not who you are,
and everyone should know that.
273
00:16:29,356 --> 00:16:30,455
Tina-bear...
274
00:16:35,261 --> 00:16:38,629
I'll talk to this Katie
and Jessica, all right?
275
00:16:38,665 --> 00:16:39,697
Good.
276
00:16:41,768 --> 00:16:44,002
Good night, Tina-bear.
I love you.
277
00:16:44,037 --> 00:16:46,004
I love you too, Daddy.
278
00:16:55,015 --> 00:16:56,047
Bye.
279
00:16:56,082 --> 00:16:58,549
Bye. Merry Christmas.
280
00:16:58,585 --> 00:17:00,518
Miss Hendricks, Miss...
281
00:17:01,621 --> 00:17:03,921
Lewis.
282
00:17:03,957 --> 00:17:06,190
The king has requested
a word with you at the palace.
283
00:17:06,226 --> 00:17:08,593
- We have to catch our flight.
- Don't worry.
284
00:17:08,628 --> 00:17:11,229
We'll make sure
it doesn't leave without you.
285
00:17:31,918 --> 00:17:34,252
Do you think
we're somehow in trouble?
286
00:17:34,287 --> 00:17:38,423
If this is the dungeon,
lock me up.
287
00:17:38,458 --> 00:17:40,691
I can't believe
we're going to meet the king.
288
00:17:40,727 --> 00:17:43,194
Let's just be on
our best behavior.
289
00:17:43,229 --> 00:17:45,696
What, me?
290
00:17:45,732 --> 00:17:49,100
Let's just not offend anyone
or break anything.
291
00:17:51,938 --> 00:17:52,904
Sorry.
292
00:17:52,939 --> 00:17:54,739
Sorry to keep you waiting.
293
00:17:55,909 --> 00:17:57,708
- You?
- You?
294
00:17:57,744 --> 00:17:59,477
What are you doing here?
295
00:17:59,512 --> 00:18:02,180
I'm meeting the...
296
00:18:05,251 --> 00:18:07,552
You're the king.
297
00:18:07,587 --> 00:18:09,187
Should we curtsy?
298
00:18:20,700 --> 00:18:25,803
So you're the Katie and Jessica
that Christina's spoken so highly of.
299
00:18:25,839 --> 00:18:28,806
I'm Katie, and this is Jessica.
300
00:18:28,842 --> 00:18:29,974
Sorry.
301
00:18:30,009 --> 00:18:31,642
Well, nice to see you again.
302
00:18:31,678 --> 00:18:33,377
Shall we get
to the business at hand?
303
00:18:33,413 --> 00:18:35,880
So my daughter
has gotten an idea
304
00:18:35,915 --> 00:18:39,484
to host an ice-skated retelling
of our country's founding.
305
00:18:44,190 --> 00:18:46,991
It'll be performed
on Founder's Day,
306
00:18:47,026 --> 00:18:50,161
which is Christmas Eve,
and it's 13 days from now.
307
00:18:50,196 --> 00:18:53,498
- That's ambitious.
- I think so too.
308
00:18:53,533 --> 00:18:57,869
She would love you both to star
in it, choreograph, and coach.
309
00:18:57,904 --> 00:19:00,671
I know it's a tall order, but
I promised my daughter I'd ask.
310
00:19:00,707 --> 00:19:03,141
However, I understand
how highly illogical
311
00:19:03,176 --> 00:19:04,976
and quite impossible
it all could be.
312
00:19:05,011 --> 00:19:08,012
- We'll do it.
- No.
313
00:19:08,047 --> 00:19:09,981
I'm sorry, we can't.
314
00:19:11,050 --> 00:19:13,217
Well, what's your final answer?
315
00:19:13,253 --> 00:19:15,453
- Yes.
- No.
316
00:19:17,891 --> 00:19:21,025
Skating in a pageant
in a palace.
317
00:19:21,060 --> 00:19:22,894
That's a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity.
318
00:19:22,929 --> 00:19:25,263
To put on a pageant in 13 days?
319
00:19:25,298 --> 00:19:27,698
Plus, we said we'd be home
for Christmas this year.
320
00:19:27,734 --> 00:19:30,168
Yeah, but San Senova's like
walking into a snow globe.
321
00:19:30,203 --> 00:19:33,171
- What could be better than that?
- Being home.
322
00:19:33,206 --> 00:19:35,907
Ladies, if you've
decided to leave,
323
00:19:35,942 --> 00:19:38,509
then a car is waiting
to take you to the airport.
324
00:19:38,545 --> 00:19:43,781
However, if you're still considering,
the Crown's offer for your services.
325
00:19:43,816 --> 00:19:45,516
If you need some more time,
326
00:19:45,552 --> 00:19:48,052
I can simply reschedule
your flight to leave tomorrow.
327
00:19:48,087 --> 00:19:49,698
We've already
checked out of our hotel.
328
00:19:49,722 --> 00:19:51,022
Since you're in San Senova,
329
00:19:51,057 --> 00:19:53,124
you shall be a guest
of the Crown.
330
00:19:53,159 --> 00:19:54,192
Wait.
331
00:19:55,995 --> 00:19:57,695
You mean we'd be staying here?
332
00:19:57,730 --> 00:20:01,599
I wouldn't get too excited.
Gets quite drafty.
333
00:20:04,737 --> 00:20:07,872
He is so cute.
334
00:20:07,907 --> 00:20:09,874
Oh, come on! Don't you wanna
stay at a palace?
335
00:20:09,909 --> 00:20:11,876
No! I wanna stay
in my own bed.
336
00:20:11,911 --> 00:20:14,579
And there's nothing that's gonna
make me wanna change my mind.
337
00:20:17,684 --> 00:20:19,750
What about this?
338
00:20:19,786 --> 00:20:21,552
That's a very generous offer.
339
00:20:21,588 --> 00:20:24,388
Katie, this is the money
that we need for the ice rink.
340
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:29,727
What exactly does
the pageant entail?
341
00:20:30,930 --> 00:20:32,630
I'll go find out.
342
00:20:41,541 --> 00:20:43,574
So did our guests
reach a decision?
343
00:20:43,610 --> 00:20:45,810
They're still considering, sir.
344
00:20:45,845 --> 00:20:48,813
What is there to consider?
It's a ludicrous concept.
345
00:20:48,848 --> 00:20:51,916
- Produce a pageant in two weeks.
- 13 days.
346
00:20:51,951 --> 00:20:54,652
To say no now
would disappoint Christina,
347
00:20:54,687 --> 00:20:58,756
but the show going awry would be
a much bigger disappointment.
348
00:20:58,791 --> 00:21:00,858
I just know how much
this means to her.
349
00:21:00,893 --> 00:21:02,760
I know you want to protect her,
350
00:21:02,795 --> 00:21:04,629
but what if the show
didn't go awry?
351
00:21:11,871 --> 00:21:13,471
- Sorry.
- Sorry.
352
00:21:13,506 --> 00:21:17,208
I was just looking
for Christina and Patricia.
353
00:21:17,243 --> 00:21:19,210
Oh, well, I can show you.
Follow me.
354
00:21:19,245 --> 00:21:21,045
Okay, thanks.
355
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,048
So have you guys decided whether
you're gonna stay or not?
356
00:21:24,083 --> 00:21:27,118
Not yet, no,
but I'm hoping for yes.
357
00:21:27,153 --> 00:21:28,853
Yeah, me too.
358
00:21:28,888 --> 00:21:32,290
It'd be nice to have you
as a houseguest.
359
00:21:33,426 --> 00:21:36,193
- Yeah, follow me.
- Thanks.
360
00:21:41,668 --> 00:21:43,467
Have you decided to stay?
361
00:21:43,503 --> 00:21:46,137
Not quite yet.
We were hoping to find out
362
00:21:46,172 --> 00:21:48,639
a little bit more about
your vision for the pageant,
363
00:21:48,675 --> 00:21:52,376
about the stories that we'd be
telling, something like that.
364
00:21:52,412 --> 00:21:54,812
Originally,
San Senova wasn't a kingdom,
365
00:21:54,847 --> 00:21:58,816
but it was a large estate
of a wealthy family:
366
00:21:58,851 --> 00:22:01,218
William, Catherine,
and their daughter Sonia.
367
00:22:01,254 --> 00:22:03,654
- Should we sit down?
- Sure.
368
00:22:05,692 --> 00:22:07,725
Well, about 500 years ago,
369
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,361
there was a terrible avalanche
in the kingdom across the lake.
370
00:22:10,396 --> 00:22:11,896
It destroyed a village,
371
00:22:11,931 --> 00:22:13,864
and all the villagers
had to flee their homes.
372
00:22:13,900 --> 00:22:15,700
So when William
found out about this,
373
00:22:15,735 --> 00:22:18,169
he set off with a team
on horseback to rescue them.
374
00:22:18,204 --> 00:22:21,906
Well, when they hadn't
returned after several days,
375
00:22:21,941 --> 00:22:25,543
Catherine and Sonia,
who was about Christina's age,
376
00:22:25,578 --> 00:22:29,013
decided to set off
and find them.
377
00:22:29,048 --> 00:22:32,216
And Sonia and Catherine
skated across the frozen lake
378
00:22:32,251 --> 00:22:34,518
to find William
and the villagers snowed in,
379
00:22:34,554 --> 00:22:36,854
and then they brought them
to the safety of San Senova.
380
00:22:36,889 --> 00:22:39,223
Where they all
celebrated Christmas together.
381
00:22:39,258 --> 00:22:40,925
And they stayed
through the winter,
382
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,693
and in spring,
they didn't want to leave,
383
00:22:42,729 --> 00:22:45,529
so they declared our family
the royal family,
384
00:22:45,565 --> 00:22:48,966
and that is how the kingdom
of San Senova was born.
385
00:22:50,470 --> 00:22:51,902
That's such a beautiful story.
386
00:22:51,938 --> 00:22:53,904
- Isn't it?
- It is.
387
00:22:53,940 --> 00:22:55,573
That's the story we tell
in the pageant.
388
00:22:55,608 --> 00:22:58,542
And then maybe
the pageant would be
389
00:22:58,578 --> 00:23:01,278
a new Christmas tradition
my dad gives the country.
390
00:23:01,314 --> 00:23:04,782
And then everyone would stop
calling him the Grinch King
391
00:23:04,817 --> 00:23:07,918
because he's not
a Grinch at all.
392
00:23:07,954 --> 00:23:10,054
He's not who people think he is.
393
00:23:10,089 --> 00:23:13,224
He's funny and nice
and the best dad,
394
00:23:13,259 --> 00:23:15,059
and everyone should know that.
395
00:23:15,094 --> 00:23:17,261
And maybe the pageant
could remind him
396
00:23:17,296 --> 00:23:18,562
how much he loves Christmas,
397
00:23:18,598 --> 00:23:21,599
and then he'll do
Christmas stuff.
398
00:23:21,634 --> 00:23:23,300
You don't do Christmas stuff?
399
00:23:23,336 --> 00:23:27,638
In the past few years, the
palace's Christmas festivities
400
00:23:27,673 --> 00:23:30,574
have been, well,
more for formality's sake.
401
00:23:30,610 --> 00:23:34,678
Photo ops and a very stuffy
traditional Christmas Eve dinner.
402
00:23:34,714 --> 00:23:38,983
You don't decorate a Christmas
tree or bake Christmas cookies?
403
00:23:39,018 --> 00:23:42,753
We used to do that
with my grandfather.
404
00:23:47,460 --> 00:23:48,492
Come on.
405
00:23:53,733 --> 00:23:57,768
See? Christina just wants
a real Christmas,
406
00:23:57,804 --> 00:23:59,904
like somebody else I know.
407
00:24:07,580 --> 00:24:09,346
With plum pudding
all over his face!
408
00:24:11,050 --> 00:24:14,852
Girls, we're having a formal dinner
tonight for the visiting dignitaries,
409
00:24:14,887 --> 00:24:17,087
so we've put some dresses
in your rooms.
410
00:24:17,123 --> 00:24:19,290
Thank you!
411
00:24:20,259 --> 00:24:21,692
Your room, Madam.
412
00:24:23,529 --> 00:24:24,829
Good day, Madam.
413
00:24:38,744 --> 00:24:42,446
Can we stay here forever?
414
00:24:42,482 --> 00:24:47,952
No, but we can stay
until the pageant.
415
00:25:26,659 --> 00:25:30,561
- You look... different.
- Thank you.
416
00:25:34,033 --> 00:25:36,300
So I heard you're staying
for the pageant.
417
00:25:36,335 --> 00:25:39,136
I hope you don't mind me asking,
what made you change your mind?
418
00:25:39,171 --> 00:25:41,639
Christina can be
very persuasive.
419
00:25:41,674 --> 00:25:43,474
That, she can.
420
00:25:43,509 --> 00:25:46,777
And your generous offer
didn't hurt either.
421
00:25:46,812 --> 00:25:49,446
Christina loves figure skating
more than anything,
422
00:25:49,482 --> 00:25:52,917
and I love the joy and magic
it brings to an audience.
423
00:25:52,952 --> 00:25:54,919
We all deserve a real Christmas.
424
00:25:54,954 --> 00:25:57,855
I'm not sure what you mean,
425
00:25:57,890 --> 00:26:00,891
but something tells me
I'm going to find out.
426
00:26:02,194 --> 00:26:03,494
Shall we?
427
00:26:09,969 --> 00:26:11,802
Okay, I've choreographed
some simple numbers
428
00:26:11,837 --> 00:26:14,004
we'll weave through San Senova's
founding story.
429
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,506
Perfect.
430
00:26:15,541 --> 00:26:18,676
I will start on costumes,
crew, props, sets,
431
00:26:18,711 --> 00:26:21,111
and you're on casting
and scheduling rehearsals?
432
00:26:21,147 --> 00:26:24,815
Yeah. I have tryouts for the
villagers starting in one hour.
433
00:26:24,850 --> 00:26:26,317
And you're gonna play the queen?
434
00:26:26,352 --> 00:26:28,452
Well, of course.
I was born for the role.
435
00:26:28,487 --> 00:26:31,488
And it'll be fun to skate with Christina.
I assume she's playing the princess.
436
00:26:31,524 --> 00:26:35,426
Patricia actually said that Christina
wanted to hold tryouts for Sonia.
437
00:26:36,862 --> 00:26:38,307
I guess Christina
just wants to be fair.
438
00:26:38,331 --> 00:26:40,965
That's sweet.
439
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,468
Okay, so I'm going
to head into town
440
00:26:44,503 --> 00:26:47,504
to work on the set decor
and costumes.
441
00:26:47,540 --> 00:26:49,506
Okay, I'm heading to the rink.
442
00:26:49,542 --> 00:26:51,875
See? We're doing this.
443
00:26:51,911 --> 00:26:53,811
12 days? No problem.
We'll get this thing done.
444
00:26:53,846 --> 00:26:55,713
It is the season of miracles.
445
00:26:55,748 --> 00:26:59,149
Also, I talked to the real estate
broker who's finding us the rink.
446
00:26:59,185 --> 00:27:00,395
She's starting
to put out feelers.
447
00:27:00,419 --> 00:27:01,719
Exciting.
448
00:27:01,754 --> 00:27:04,388
Katie, Jessica,
449
00:27:04,423 --> 00:27:07,858
I wanted to offer my assistance
in organizing the pageant,
450
00:27:07,893 --> 00:27:09,860
- however I can help.
- Thank you.
451
00:27:09,895 --> 00:27:12,329
I've always had a penchant
for musical theater,
452
00:27:12,365 --> 00:27:16,200
and this seems pretty much
the same, only colder, on ice.
453
00:27:19,338 --> 00:27:21,972
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
454
00:27:22,008 --> 00:27:24,475
The king's asked me to organize
an ice skating pageant
455
00:27:24,510 --> 00:27:26,010
for Founder's Day,
456
00:27:26,045 --> 00:27:27,222
I was wondering
if it would be possible
457
00:27:27,246 --> 00:27:28,679
to rent set decorations
from you.
458
00:27:28,714 --> 00:27:31,415
No need to rent.
We'll be happy to donate.
459
00:27:31,450 --> 00:27:33,517
- Really?
- Of course.
460
00:27:33,552 --> 00:27:34,885
Great.
461
00:27:41,627 --> 00:27:44,261
Your Majesty.
462
00:27:44,296 --> 00:27:47,531
- What brings you here?
- Pageant prep. You?
463
00:27:47,566 --> 00:27:50,000
- I'm just running errands.
- Kings run errands?
464
00:27:50,036 --> 00:27:51,702
Not typically,
465
00:27:51,737 --> 00:27:54,571
but I came to pick up
the Christmas presents
466
00:27:54,607 --> 00:27:57,007
for the palace staff.
467
00:27:57,043 --> 00:27:58,709
That's really sweet of you.
468
00:27:58,744 --> 00:28:01,679
You don't have to look
so surprised.
469
00:28:02,715 --> 00:28:04,548
What are you getting everyone?
470
00:28:04,583 --> 00:28:07,184
A specially-made card
and a monetary gift.
471
00:28:07,219 --> 00:28:09,453
You're getting the staff money?
472
00:28:09,488 --> 00:28:12,289
Well, it's traditional
and practical.
473
00:28:12,324 --> 00:28:14,458
It sounds like a generous gift,
474
00:28:14,493 --> 00:28:16,960
but maybe you should consider
adding a personal touch.
475
00:28:16,996 --> 00:28:20,998
Well, I appreciate
your unsolicited advice.
476
00:28:22,334 --> 00:28:23,901
I should run.
477
00:28:23,936 --> 00:28:25,069
Thank you.
478
00:28:25,104 --> 00:28:26,170
Good day.
479
00:28:29,508 --> 00:28:34,445
Do you think that my gift
could be perceived as...
480
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:35,579
impersonal?
481
00:29:04,844 --> 00:29:08,078
Aunt Patricia,
have you seen Christina?
482
00:29:08,114 --> 00:29:10,748
She finished her homework
and ran off to the rink.
483
00:29:12,885 --> 00:29:14,284
Thank you.
484
00:29:34,807 --> 00:29:37,708
You were amazing!
That was great.
485
00:29:37,743 --> 00:29:40,010
Why weren't you at tryouts?
486
00:29:40,045 --> 00:29:43,514
Because I don't want
to play Princess Sonia.
487
00:29:51,757 --> 00:29:52,956
Why not?
488
00:29:52,992 --> 00:29:55,993
I guess everyone
will be watching,
489
00:29:56,028 --> 00:29:59,062
and what if I mess up?
490
00:29:59,098 --> 00:30:01,131
Everyone messes up sometimes.
491
00:30:03,769 --> 00:30:05,335
Back when I was skating,
492
00:30:05,371 --> 00:30:07,805
I used to be so worried
about messing up my jumps.
493
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,306
But my mom,
who was also my coach,
494
00:30:09,341 --> 00:30:10,919
would always remind me
that in competition,
495
00:30:10,943 --> 00:30:12,643
you get points for trying.
496
00:30:12,678 --> 00:30:14,144
It doesn't matter if you fall.
497
00:30:15,639 --> 00:30:16,547
And she would also tell me,
498
00:30:16,582 --> 00:30:20,250
and I really wish I had listened
to her while I was skating,
499
00:30:20,286 --> 00:30:22,319
it doesn't matter
if you mess up.
500
00:30:22,354 --> 00:30:24,888
All that matters is that
you love being out on the ice.
501
00:30:25,925 --> 00:30:27,391
And I hate to typecast you,
502
00:30:27,426 --> 00:30:29,259
but you're an incredible
skating princess,
503
00:30:29,295 --> 00:30:32,596
and the pageant needs
an incredible skating princess.
504
00:30:32,631 --> 00:30:35,265
And you'll be
coaching the skaters?
505
00:30:35,301 --> 00:30:38,068
Yeah. We'll have lots of time
to work together.
506
00:30:38,103 --> 00:30:40,003
So?
507
00:30:42,942 --> 00:30:46,410
- Okay.
- Yes! High-five!
508
00:30:46,445 --> 00:30:49,279
I'm not sure princesses
are suppose to high-five.
509
00:30:49,315 --> 00:30:50,814
Okay. Low-five?
510
00:30:53,152 --> 00:30:55,252
Shall we start with your spiral?
511
00:31:01,393 --> 00:31:04,194
How's the planning?
512
00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:08,932
Well, despite being highly illogical
and quite impossible, it's going well.
513
00:31:08,968 --> 00:31:10,167
Good.
514
00:31:12,171 --> 00:31:15,572
I overheard you at the ice rink
earlier with Christina.
515
00:31:15,608 --> 00:31:19,543
- I hope I didn't overstep.
- No, not at all...
516
00:31:21,580 --> 00:31:23,146
Thanks.
517
00:31:23,182 --> 00:31:24,982
Actually, I wanted to thank you.
518
00:31:25,017 --> 00:31:30,053
She can be tough on herself
and take herself too seriously.
519
00:31:31,790 --> 00:31:33,323
It's been hard for her.
520
00:31:33,359 --> 00:31:35,893
She lost her mother
six years ago
521
00:31:35,928 --> 00:31:38,295
and her grandfather
three years ago.
522
00:31:38,330 --> 00:31:39,930
And she knows that
despite being a child,
523
00:31:39,965 --> 00:31:43,467
everyone sees her
as the person who will be queen.
524
00:31:43,502 --> 00:31:45,769
I just know that skating
is truly the place
525
00:31:45,804 --> 00:31:48,906
where she can just be herself.
526
00:31:48,941 --> 00:31:50,774
I understand that feeling.
527
00:31:52,878 --> 00:31:54,344
Well, thank you.
528
00:31:54,380 --> 00:31:58,248
You know, she's putting
this pageant on for you.
529
00:31:58,284 --> 00:32:02,452
I had my suspicions, with
the whole Grinch King fiasco.
530
00:32:02,488 --> 00:32:04,988
Yeah. She thinks
you're pretty great,
531
00:32:05,024 --> 00:32:08,091
wants everyone else to know too.
532
00:32:08,127 --> 00:32:10,260
But I think she also hopes
533
00:32:10,296 --> 00:32:12,763
this pageant will remind you
how much you love Christmas
534
00:32:12,798 --> 00:32:15,365
and then get you
into the holiday spirit.
535
00:32:15,401 --> 00:32:17,968
Well, I'll give it some thought.
536
00:32:18,003 --> 00:32:22,606
And as ever, I appreciate
your unsolicited advice.
537
00:32:23,039 --> 00:32:26,343
- Good night, Katie.
- Good night, Your Majesty.
538
00:32:27,479 --> 00:32:28,912
Just Alex.
539
00:32:30,082 --> 00:32:31,181
Good night, Alex.
540
00:32:46,565 --> 00:32:48,832
The guest list
for the Christmas Eve dinner.
541
00:32:48,867 --> 00:32:52,169
The Christmas Eve royal dinner.
542
00:32:52,204 --> 00:32:54,838
Reigning contender
for the worst night of the year.
543
00:32:54,873 --> 00:32:58,041
I wouldn't say contender, sir,
I'd say the heavyweight champion.
544
00:32:58,077 --> 00:32:59,988
You know, it was tolerable
when my father hosted it.
545
00:33:00,012 --> 00:33:02,279
Now it's unbearably stuffy.
546
00:33:03,983 --> 00:33:06,183
By the way,
I need you to reschedule
547
00:33:06,218 --> 00:33:09,152
my afternoon meeting
with the chancellor,
548
00:33:09,188 --> 00:33:11,521
I have a surprise planned
for Christina.
549
00:33:14,827 --> 00:33:16,460
The seamstress
is working on costumes,
550
00:33:16,495 --> 00:33:18,962
the set decorations
should be delivered today.
551
00:33:18,998 --> 00:33:21,365
The set designers
start tomorrow.
552
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:23,845
Great, and I'd love to set up a
meeting with the lighting crew.
553
00:33:23,869 --> 00:33:25,302
I'll arrange that.
554
00:33:25,337 --> 00:33:27,371
And let me know anything else
I can help with.
555
00:33:27,406 --> 00:33:31,475
- Thank you so much.
- No, thank you.
556
00:33:31,510 --> 00:33:36,847
It's not often we get to have
this much fun around here.
557
00:33:37,455 --> 00:33:40,650
Don't worry. Everyone falls down.
Even me. All the time.
558
00:33:40,686 --> 00:33:44,621
I promise you're gonna get it.
Just takes a little bit of practice.
559
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,261
- She's having trouble with her spiral.
- She's hard on herself.
560
00:33:51,296 --> 00:33:54,431
Yeah, well, she reminds me
of somebody else I know.
561
00:33:54,466 --> 00:33:57,616
I have to head to rehearsal
for the villagers.
562
00:34:04,910 --> 00:34:06,410
Christina, you're doing great.
563
00:34:06,445 --> 00:34:07,978
- No, I'm not.
- Yes, you are.
564
00:34:08,013 --> 00:34:10,580
But there are only
10 days until the pageant,
565
00:34:10,616 --> 00:34:13,717
and I still haven't got
the spiral perfect.
566
00:34:13,752 --> 00:34:15,852
And everyone's going
to be watching.
567
00:34:18,357 --> 00:34:19,630
Tina-bear.
568
00:34:20,192 --> 00:34:21,237
Daddy.
569
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,260
Hey.
570
00:34:23,295 --> 00:34:25,729
- What are you doing here?
- Well, last night,
571
00:34:25,764 --> 00:34:28,432
I was thinking of something
your grandfather had said.
572
00:34:28,467 --> 00:34:31,668
That in a palace
filled with Christmas trees,
573
00:34:31,703 --> 00:34:35,105
we must have decorated one
ourselves.
574
00:34:35,140 --> 00:34:37,251
You mean we're going to
decorate a Christmas tree.
575
00:34:37,375 --> 00:34:40,944
- We need to pick one out first.
- Yes! Can Katie come?
576
00:34:42,681 --> 00:34:47,984
Well, I'm sure Katie's quite busy,
but if she can spare an hour,
577
00:34:48,020 --> 00:34:50,687
we could certainly
use your Christmas expertise.
578
00:34:50,722 --> 00:34:52,789
Christmas is my middle name.
579
00:34:52,825 --> 00:34:56,093
Then you must join us because
my middle name is William.
580
00:34:59,698 --> 00:35:01,998
This one, this one, this one!
Can we get that one?
581
00:35:03,402 --> 00:35:05,502
No, no, this one.
I really like this one.
582
00:35:05,537 --> 00:35:07,971
Please, please, please,
please, please, please.
583
00:35:09,808 --> 00:35:12,843
This is turning into
a photo op for you.
584
00:35:12,878 --> 00:35:15,612
My life is one long
photo opportunity.
585
00:35:15,647 --> 00:35:17,481
The joys of being king.
586
00:35:17,516 --> 00:35:19,483
Don't have to tell me.
I was prom queen.
587
00:35:19,518 --> 00:35:22,686
I think I found it.
I think I found the perfect tree.
588
00:35:23,889 --> 00:35:25,689
This is the one.
589
00:35:25,724 --> 00:35:27,324
It is perfect.
590
00:35:29,161 --> 00:35:31,294
I'll ask Nicholas
to organize delivery.
591
00:35:33,499 --> 00:35:36,399
- What?
- Well, my family tradition is
592
00:35:36,435 --> 00:35:38,001
no Christmas tree shopping
is complete
593
00:35:38,036 --> 00:35:41,404
without struggling to get
the Christmas tree home.
594
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,206
Really?
595
00:35:45,711 --> 00:35:49,312
Careful!
That was nearly the last of me.
596
00:35:52,784 --> 00:35:55,152
Okay, be careful.
597
00:35:56,388 --> 00:35:58,421
There? Okay.
Like here?
598
00:35:58,457 --> 00:36:00,390
- Yeah.
- It's beautiful.
599
00:36:00,425 --> 00:36:01,658
Okay.
600
00:36:02,628 --> 00:36:05,729
- Hot chocolate?
- Oh, honey, thank you.
601
00:36:05,764 --> 00:36:09,533
- You're welcome.
- Thank you.
602
00:36:09,568 --> 00:36:11,568
I just love this one.
603
00:36:20,979 --> 00:36:23,280
Why did I get this job?
604
00:36:23,315 --> 00:36:25,715
I think I assumed,
since you rule a country,
605
00:36:25,751 --> 00:36:28,351
you could probably untangle
some Christmas lights.
606
00:36:28,387 --> 00:36:31,721
Well, I've once more
proved you wrong.
607
00:36:33,892 --> 00:36:37,027
First, the struggle with
the Christmas tree home,
608
00:36:37,062 --> 00:36:38,962
and now the lights.
609
00:36:38,997 --> 00:36:40,597
Christmas should come
with a warning.
610
00:36:40,632 --> 00:36:43,300
Yes, warning.
Fun ahead.
611
00:36:43,335 --> 00:36:46,803
- Do you want some help?
- Yes, please.
612
00:36:46,838 --> 00:36:48,550
Some of these ornaments
are hundreds of years old.
613
00:36:48,574 --> 00:36:52,042
Then I probably
shouldn't touch them.
614
00:36:52,077 --> 00:36:55,245
I'm not used to Christmas trees
having so much history.
615
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,380
Well, I'm used to being
surrounded by history.
616
00:36:57,416 --> 00:36:59,549
My family's always
worked for the Crown.
617
00:36:59,585 --> 00:37:03,653
My father assisted Alex's father.
My grandfather, his grandfather.
618
00:37:03,689 --> 00:37:05,989
You gotta keep untangling it.
619
00:37:06,024 --> 00:37:08,458
I think it would look
really good around you.
620
00:37:09,795 --> 00:37:11,005
We grew up together
like brothers.
621
00:37:11,029 --> 00:37:12,495
So was working at the palace
622
00:37:12,531 --> 00:37:14,631
something you always knew
you wanted to do?
623
00:37:14,666 --> 00:37:17,000
There was never any question
of doing anything else.
624
00:37:17,035 --> 00:37:18,935
I mean, it's a wonderful job.
625
00:37:18,971 --> 00:37:22,505
Sometimes I get to sit on the throne
when no one's looking.
626
00:37:24,943 --> 00:37:27,677
What about you? Did you always
know you wanted to skate?
627
00:37:27,713 --> 00:37:31,014
I did actually, yeah.
And so did Katie.
628
00:37:31,049 --> 00:37:34,251
We met when we were three.
We grew up on the ice together.
629
00:37:34,286 --> 00:37:36,453
All we ever dreamed about
was skating
630
00:37:36,488 --> 00:37:39,012
and competing and performing.
631
00:37:39,358 --> 00:37:41,825
And now we have a new dream.
632
00:37:41,860 --> 00:37:43,660
I wanna buy an ice rink,
633
00:37:43,695 --> 00:37:46,763
start a training center
where we can coach skaters.
634
00:37:46,798 --> 00:37:49,199
I love to skate, but I could
always use some coaching,
635
00:37:49,234 --> 00:37:52,135
if you need the practice.
636
00:37:53,905 --> 00:37:56,773
Or we could do something else.
637
00:37:56,808 --> 00:37:59,276
I could take you
on a tour of San Senova.
638
00:38:00,712 --> 00:38:02,078
I'd love that.
639
00:38:03,515 --> 00:38:06,116
- Let's have a look.
- It looks great.
640
00:38:06,151 --> 00:38:08,351
- Well done.
- It looks so beautiful.
641
00:38:08,387 --> 00:38:12,489
- Looks very nice, guys.
- Look at the star.
642
00:38:12,524 --> 00:38:14,791
It's twinkling.
Should we take a photo?
643
00:38:20,198 --> 00:38:22,565
Miss Hendricks,
you're needed at the rink.
644
00:38:22,601 --> 00:38:26,069
- What's wrong?
- Jessica's hurt.
645
00:38:26,104 --> 00:38:28,805
I've already called
the palace doctor.
646
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,507
Yeah, it's fine in there.
647
00:38:30,542 --> 00:38:31,641
The outside's where it's...
648
00:38:31,677 --> 00:38:34,077
- What happened?
- I slipped and fell wrong.
649
00:38:34,112 --> 00:38:36,479
She'll be fine.
It's just a bad sprain.
650
00:38:36,515 --> 00:38:38,026
Walking will be fine
in a couple of days,
651
00:38:38,050 --> 00:38:42,252
but no skating
for at least three weeks.
652
00:38:42,287 --> 00:38:43,586
- Three weeks?
- Three weeks?
653
00:38:43,622 --> 00:38:45,488
But the pageant's in nine days.
654
00:38:50,696 --> 00:38:52,996
Katie, you know
the choreography,
655
00:38:53,031 --> 00:38:55,498
and you will skate it
better than I ever could.
656
00:38:55,534 --> 00:38:58,702
I can't.
I have my old injury.
657
00:38:58,737 --> 00:39:02,272
And I haven't been
on the ice in years.
658
00:39:03,809 --> 00:39:06,810
We'll figure it out.
This country is full of ice skaters.
659
00:39:06,845 --> 00:39:11,481
We'll find someone to replace you.
I'll hold tryouts.
660
00:39:11,516 --> 00:39:13,850
Right, because you've
got nothing better to do.
661
00:39:13,885 --> 00:39:16,119
I have few things I need to do.
662
00:39:16,154 --> 00:39:18,621
Well, not to add to your list,
663
00:39:18,657 --> 00:39:21,791
but I heard from the real
estate broker this morning.
664
00:39:21,827 --> 00:39:23,626
We have some forms
we have to fill out,
665
00:39:23,662 --> 00:39:26,062
and she told me that
there might be an ice rink
666
00:39:26,098 --> 00:39:27,364
in Trenton going up for sale.
667
00:39:27,399 --> 00:39:28,965
It's like
a half-an-hour from us.
668
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:30,667
Don't know why
we've never seen it.
669
00:39:30,702 --> 00:39:34,070
I haven't seen pictures yet,
but it sounds perfect.
670
00:39:34,106 --> 00:39:35,338
That's great.
671
00:39:38,577 --> 00:39:41,144
I hope I'm not interrupting.
672
00:39:41,179 --> 00:39:45,248
I brought you some flowers.
673
00:39:45,283 --> 00:39:46,916
Thank you.
674
00:39:46,952 --> 00:39:50,320
Beautiful flowers
for a beautiful lady.
675
00:39:52,691 --> 00:39:56,559
- How is your ankle?
- It's feeling a lot better, thank you.
676
00:39:56,595 --> 00:39:59,028
- Brilliant. Great.
- Thank you.
677
00:39:59,064 --> 00:40:02,265
I'll leave you two alone,
and I'll catch you later.
678
00:40:02,300 --> 00:40:03,833
Okay.
679
00:40:05,904 --> 00:40:09,439
- What's going on with you two?
- Nothing.
680
00:40:09,474 --> 00:40:13,176
But he is handsome.
And odd, but in the best way.
681
00:40:13,211 --> 00:40:16,079
And he's really smart.
682
00:40:16,114 --> 00:40:19,282
- And?
- And I'm leaving soon.
683
00:40:19,317 --> 00:40:21,095
Well, you never know
how things will work out.
684
00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:22,886
Remember what my mom
used to say?
685
00:40:22,921 --> 00:40:25,688
"Christmas is a time
where we open our hearts".
686
00:40:25,724 --> 00:40:29,559
Oh, well, you know,
maybe you should open yours...
687
00:40:29,594 --> 00:40:31,761
to skating in the pageant.
688
00:40:36,334 --> 00:40:39,969
Could you help schedule tryouts
for the queen role tomorrow?
689
00:40:40,005 --> 00:40:42,305
Christina needs to skate with
someone as soon as possible.
690
00:40:42,340 --> 00:40:44,541
- Happy to help.
- Thank you.
691
00:40:44,576 --> 00:40:46,276
Excuse me.
692
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,779
Aunt Patricia.
693
00:40:51,650 --> 00:40:54,384
I'm so sorry
to hear about Jessica.
694
00:40:54,419 --> 00:40:57,086
- Thank you.
- I'll just...
695
00:41:01,493 --> 00:41:04,661
The pageant being illogical
and impossible
696
00:41:04,696 --> 00:41:06,429
is growing increasingly real.
697
00:41:07,499 --> 00:41:09,299
Well, I have faith in you.
698
00:41:09,334 --> 00:41:11,468
And actually,
I have a little matter
699
00:41:11,503 --> 00:41:13,670
I could use your advice on.
700
00:41:13,705 --> 00:41:18,274
I've reconsidered your take
on the palace staff Christmas gifts.
701
00:41:18,310 --> 00:41:20,777
- You did, did you?
- I did.
702
00:41:20,812 --> 00:41:24,180
And I could see how my gift
could be perceived as...
703
00:41:24,216 --> 00:41:25,982
Bad?
704
00:41:26,017 --> 00:41:29,118
I was going to say
"unsentimental", but...
705
00:41:29,154 --> 00:41:30,820
That's the word
I was looking for.
706
00:41:30,856 --> 00:41:32,522
I know you've got
a lot on your plate,
707
00:41:32,557 --> 00:41:35,658
and heaven knows nobody needs
this pageant to succeed
708
00:41:35,694 --> 00:41:38,094
more than the Grinch King.
709
00:41:38,129 --> 00:41:42,265
I was hoping you could help
with some pointers
710
00:41:42,300 --> 00:41:44,434
on my gift giving.
711
00:41:44,469 --> 00:41:46,836
I would love to.
712
00:41:46,872 --> 00:41:49,472
For the palace staff,
the kitchen crew,
713
00:41:49,508 --> 00:41:52,175
Regina, Margaret, Dawson.
714
00:41:55,013 --> 00:41:58,548
- Perhaps a coffee cup for Dawson.
- Does he drink a lot of coffee?
715
00:41:58,583 --> 00:42:00,183
No, he doesn't.
716
00:42:00,218 --> 00:42:02,452
Help. I'm failing Christmas.
717
00:42:02,487 --> 00:42:05,188
Okay, well,
everyone who knows me
718
00:42:05,223 --> 00:42:06,890
knows how much I love
Christmas ornaments.
719
00:42:06,925 --> 00:42:08,525
I have a collection,
720
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,304
although I'm never home
to hang them on the tree.
721
00:42:10,328 --> 00:42:12,562
But, as gifts,
I receive a lot of ornaments
722
00:42:12,597 --> 00:42:14,831
with personal significance,
and I love them.
723
00:42:14,866 --> 00:42:18,535
So I get the staff ornaments?
724
00:42:19,871 --> 00:42:21,471
I think the key is
to give something
725
00:42:21,506 --> 00:42:24,774
that tells everyone the place
they have in your heart.
726
00:42:27,279 --> 00:42:30,413
Okay, let's see
what we can find.
727
00:42:32,551 --> 00:42:35,418
I'll take one of these.
728
00:42:35,453 --> 00:42:37,720
Two of these.
Here, hold that.
729
00:42:37,756 --> 00:42:40,423
I'm sorry,
but the gift is socks?
730
00:42:40,458 --> 00:42:43,993
Aren't socks considered universally
the worst Christmas gifts?
731
00:42:44,029 --> 00:42:46,763
Not socks.
Christmas stockings.
732
00:42:46,798 --> 00:42:48,765
You'll hand-make them
for the staff,
733
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,667
and we'll hang them
above the fireplace.
734
00:42:50,702 --> 00:42:54,571
You can fill them with the cards
and the personal gifts
735
00:42:54,606 --> 00:42:57,006
to show them how much you care.
736
00:42:58,476 --> 00:43:01,377
I'm still struggling
with the hand-make part.
737
00:43:01,413 --> 00:43:02,845
I'll help you.
738
00:43:02,881 --> 00:43:05,448
Okay, I'll sew, you decorate.
739
00:43:05,483 --> 00:43:08,551
Well, it definitely won't be
the other way around.
740
00:43:08,587 --> 00:43:10,219
How do you know
how to do all this?
741
00:43:10,255 --> 00:43:11,588
I used to do it with my mom.
742
00:43:11,623 --> 00:43:15,592
She loved Christmas, went all out.
Everything handmade, DIY.
743
00:43:17,095 --> 00:43:19,762
My mother passed away
when I was very young.
744
00:43:19,798 --> 00:43:21,531
I never really knew her.
745
00:43:21,566 --> 00:43:25,435
But my father,
he loved Christmas.
746
00:43:25,470 --> 00:43:29,105
Sounds like a great guy already.
What was he like?
747
00:43:29,140 --> 00:43:31,374
Magnanimous, beloved.
748
00:43:31,409 --> 00:43:33,543
I feel like I've heard that
somewhere before.
749
00:43:33,578 --> 00:43:36,546
Often it was actually true
with him.
750
00:43:36,581 --> 00:43:39,215
I'm not quite the king
that he was.
751
00:43:40,185 --> 00:43:43,319
- You miss him.
- Yeah, I do.
752
00:43:43,355 --> 00:43:46,723
All the time,
especially at Christmas.
753
00:43:46,758 --> 00:43:48,625
I get that.
754
00:43:48,660 --> 00:43:52,295
The first couple Christmases
after my mom passed away,
755
00:43:52,330 --> 00:43:55,298
every garland and carol
reminded me of her.
756
00:43:55,333 --> 00:43:57,834
It was hard.
757
00:43:57,869 --> 00:44:02,538
But now Christmas has become
a way of celebrating her memory.
758
00:44:10,315 --> 00:44:12,615
- Shall we?
- Okay.
759
00:44:24,329 --> 00:44:29,732
Sorry they're late,
but some good press.
760
00:44:34,706 --> 00:44:37,774
Katie is rather something.
761
00:44:38,877 --> 00:44:40,576
Yes, I suppose.
762
00:44:41,813 --> 00:44:46,349
Alex, it is okay
to get close to someone again.
763
00:44:46,384 --> 00:44:48,551
I know losing Victoria
was hard...
764
00:44:48,586 --> 00:44:51,721
Nicholas...
765
00:44:51,756 --> 00:44:55,892
the menu the kitchen sent over
for the Christmas Eve dinner.
766
00:44:55,927 --> 00:44:57,226
Yes.
767
00:44:57,262 --> 00:45:01,364
Can you pass it along to Patricia
and ask if she'll handle it?
768
00:45:02,367 --> 00:45:04,367
Yes, Your Majesty.
769
00:45:27,625 --> 00:45:28,658
- Hi.
- Hi.
770
00:45:28,693 --> 00:45:30,393
How's it going?
771
00:45:30,428 --> 00:45:33,896
Well, given there's a week until
Christmas, better than expected.
772
00:45:33,932 --> 00:45:37,400
- Do you want to sit?
- Yeah, sure.
773
00:45:37,435 --> 00:45:38,735
How's the ankle?
774
00:45:38,770 --> 00:45:40,737
It's healing well.
Walking is fine.
775
00:45:40,772 --> 00:45:45,575
It's just bad timing with the pageant
and having to find a replacement.
776
00:45:45,610 --> 00:45:48,077
- And what about you?
- I'm ready for something new.
777
00:45:48,113 --> 00:45:51,447
- The training center.
- What about you?
778
00:45:51,483 --> 00:45:53,716
Do you think you'll stay
at the palace forever?
779
00:45:53,752 --> 00:45:55,852
I'm not quite sure
what else I'd do.
780
00:45:55,887 --> 00:45:57,520
What else would you want to do?
781
00:45:57,555 --> 00:45:59,388
But I've lived in San Senova
my whole life,
782
00:45:59,424 --> 00:46:02,892
so maybe go somewhere different,
try something new,
783
00:46:02,927 --> 00:46:04,227
throw caution to the wind.
784
00:46:04,262 --> 00:46:06,295
You know, have an adventure.
785
00:46:08,166 --> 00:46:09,732
Sounds exciting.
786
00:46:12,337 --> 00:46:14,570
Speaking of adventure,
787
00:46:14,606 --> 00:46:16,939
didn't you promise me
a tour of San Senova?
788
00:46:16,975 --> 00:46:20,476
I'm not quite sure it's
an adventure, but yes, I did.
789
00:46:20,512 --> 00:46:22,278
Tomorrow?
790
00:46:22,313 --> 00:46:23,412
It's a date.
791
00:46:23,448 --> 00:46:25,381
Great.
792
00:46:43,468 --> 00:46:45,268
Christina?
793
00:46:45,303 --> 00:46:47,603
We're supposed to be rehearsing.
794
00:46:47,605 --> 00:46:50,640
Jessica's replacement's
coming to practice with you.
795
00:46:50,675 --> 00:46:53,009
Well...
796
00:46:53,044 --> 00:46:54,844
What's going on?
797
00:46:54,879 --> 00:46:57,146
I don't want to play
Princess Sonia anymore.
798
00:47:04,956 --> 00:47:08,991
When I was skating with Jessica,
she's the star.
799
00:47:09,027 --> 00:47:11,661
I knew everyone
would be looking at her.
800
00:47:11,696 --> 00:47:15,198
But now everyone
will be looking at me,
801
00:47:15,233 --> 00:47:17,700
and they'll expect me
to be perfect.
802
00:47:17,735 --> 00:47:19,869
Why would they expect that?
803
00:47:19,904 --> 00:47:24,507
Because princesses
are supposed to be perfect.
804
00:47:24,542 --> 00:47:27,109
Like Cinderella.
805
00:47:27,145 --> 00:47:28,711
No one's perfect.
806
00:47:28,746 --> 00:47:31,781
And Cinderella
definitely wasn't perfect.
807
00:47:31,816 --> 00:47:33,683
She was always running late
and losing things,
808
00:47:33,718 --> 00:47:35,685
like the glass slipper.
809
00:47:35,720 --> 00:47:38,487
It's one thing
I'll never understand.
810
00:47:38,523 --> 00:47:41,824
If that slipper fit perfectly,
then why did it fall off?
811
00:47:43,728 --> 00:47:45,895
And Cinderella
was a terrible figure skater.
812
00:47:45,930 --> 00:47:47,797
She was?
813
00:47:47,832 --> 00:47:50,833
How could she not be?
Her coach was a pumpkin.
814
00:47:56,407 --> 00:48:01,935
Sometimes it's just a little hard
being out there on the ice.
815
00:48:03,114 --> 00:48:07,250
It is.
But I think that's part of it.
816
00:48:07,285 --> 00:48:12,655
We can't let our fears hold us back
from doing what we love most.
817
00:48:17,262 --> 00:48:19,295
What if I were to skate
the queen role?
818
00:48:20,365 --> 00:48:23,199
- You'd skate with me?
- Yeah.
819
00:48:23,234 --> 00:48:26,602
But aren't you hurt?
820
00:48:26,638 --> 00:48:28,905
Well, let's just hope
I'm all healed up.
821
00:48:43,655 --> 00:48:46,422
San Senova is so beautiful.
822
00:48:46,457 --> 00:48:48,824
You should come back in summer
when everything's in bloom.
823
00:48:48,860 --> 00:48:52,228
- I'll take you to the mountains.
- I'd like that.
824
00:48:54,399 --> 00:48:57,500
- Are you okay?
- Fine.
825
00:49:00,838 --> 00:49:02,505
Apologies.
826
00:49:02,540 --> 00:49:04,140
No, it's okay.
827
00:49:09,314 --> 00:49:13,482
He's so sweet and so hilarious,
and he just...
828
00:49:13,518 --> 00:49:15,484
he just makes me feel
all fluttery.
829
00:49:16,821 --> 00:49:20,156
- I'm so happy for you.
- Thanks.
830
00:49:20,191 --> 00:49:23,059
And not to change the subject
because I do want to hear everything,
831
00:49:23,094 --> 00:49:25,005
but I did sign the forms
that we need to send back
832
00:49:25,029 --> 00:49:25,995
to the real estate broker.
833
00:49:26,030 --> 00:49:27,663
Perfect, okay.
834
00:49:27,699 --> 00:49:29,966
Excuse me, ladies.
835
00:49:31,602 --> 00:49:34,637
I would like to invite you
to the royal Christmas tea
836
00:49:34,672 --> 00:49:36,472
tomorrow afternoon.
837
00:49:36,507 --> 00:49:38,374
It's an age-old tradition.
838
00:49:38,409 --> 00:49:43,145
We'll have tea, finger sandwiches,
and traditional Christmas desserts.
839
00:49:43,181 --> 00:49:45,514
My father and I used
to bake cookies for it.
840
00:49:45,550 --> 00:49:48,017
Maybe that's something
Christina would love to do.
841
00:49:48,052 --> 00:49:51,087
- Well, I'm not much of a baker.
- Well, Katie's a great baker.
842
00:49:53,024 --> 00:49:54,501
Yeah, she used to make
these delicious
843
00:49:54,525 --> 00:49:57,126
frosted gingerbread cookies
with her mom,
844
00:49:57,161 --> 00:49:58,627
and I'm sure she'd love to help.
845
00:49:58,663 --> 00:50:00,863
I know you're very busy, Katie,
846
00:50:00,898 --> 00:50:05,468
but if you could spare the time,
I'm sure Christina would love it.
847
00:50:05,503 --> 00:50:07,636
Anything for Christina.
848
00:50:07,672 --> 00:50:10,573
Very well.
Good afternoon.
849
00:50:15,046 --> 00:50:18,814
- What was that?
- That? That was awkward.
850
00:50:18,850 --> 00:50:20,850
No, he's not interested.
851
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,988
I have seen him looking at you,
and yes, he is.
852
00:50:26,024 --> 00:50:28,991
No, Jessica, he's not.
He dates...
853
00:50:29,027 --> 00:50:31,160
I don't know who he dates,
but not people like me.
854
00:50:31,195 --> 00:50:33,863
Why is it that you always think
you're not good enough?
855
00:50:33,898 --> 00:50:35,664
I don't.
I think I'm great.
856
00:50:35,700 --> 00:50:37,466
- Good.
- But he's a king who's here,
857
00:50:37,502 --> 00:50:39,168
- and I'm...
- Also here right now.
858
00:50:39,203 --> 00:50:41,003
And as you pointed out earlier,
leaving.
859
00:50:41,039 --> 00:50:45,374
What was that thing that your
mom used to say about Christmas?
860
00:50:45,410 --> 00:50:47,476
That it's a time when
you should open your heart.
861
00:50:47,512 --> 00:50:50,579
And I opened my heart
to skating in the pageant.
862
00:50:50,615 --> 00:50:54,016
Speaking of, I should go
rehearse with Christina.
863
00:50:54,052 --> 00:50:56,352
It's my first time
on the ice in years.
864
00:50:56,387 --> 00:50:58,487
- Wish me luck.
- Luck.
865
00:50:59,457 --> 00:51:00,790
Nice. Good job, Laney.
866
00:51:03,895 --> 00:51:05,661
Good, Samantha.
867
00:51:08,966 --> 00:51:13,569
High. Pick up your feet.
Seth, pick up your feet a bit.
868
00:51:18,276 --> 00:51:19,383
Are you ready?
869
00:51:20,945 --> 00:51:23,412
You know...
870
00:51:25,283 --> 00:51:28,784
Actually, your dad wanted us
to make Christmas cookies,
871
00:51:28,820 --> 00:51:30,531
so why don't I get everything
ready in the kitchen,
872
00:51:30,555 --> 00:51:33,222
and you can rehearse
with the other kids.
873
00:51:33,257 --> 00:51:34,590
But I don't know them.
874
00:51:34,625 --> 00:51:38,661
Then show them who you really are
because everyone likes that person.
875
00:51:40,231 --> 00:51:42,598
I know it can be scary
to put yourself out there,
876
00:51:42,633 --> 00:51:45,101
but it's worth it.
877
00:51:53,578 --> 00:51:55,411
And then David with the hat
said, "Yay".
878
00:51:55,446 --> 00:51:57,458
And then the other kids
invited me to carol with them
879
00:51:57,482 --> 00:51:59,215
at the Christmas Market
on Friday.
880
00:51:59,250 --> 00:52:04,053
- Can I go?
- Yeah, of course you can, honey.
881
00:52:04,088 --> 00:52:07,990
We'll perform on Friday at 3:00.
Katie, can you come?
882
00:52:08,025 --> 00:52:10,159
Yeah, definitely.
883
00:52:10,194 --> 00:52:13,362
Dad, can you?
884
00:52:15,666 --> 00:52:17,099
I'll try my best.
885
00:52:21,939 --> 00:52:25,407
So I'm stirring, your dad
is still rolling out the dough,
886
00:52:25,443 --> 00:52:28,477
although why it's taking him
so long is a great mystery.
887
00:52:28,513 --> 00:52:30,446
Well, I'm trying
to get it perfect.
888
00:52:30,481 --> 00:52:33,682
It's a sugar cookie, not an
amendment to the Constitution.
889
00:52:33,718 --> 00:52:36,185
My mom used to say no matter
how good the cookie looks,
890
00:52:36,220 --> 00:52:38,420
you should always taste it
just to make sure.
891
00:52:38,456 --> 00:52:41,757
Well, a job that important
definitely needs all of us.
892
00:52:43,060 --> 00:52:44,627
Thank you very much.
893
00:52:44,662 --> 00:52:47,997
Thank you. Cheers.
894
00:52:48,032 --> 00:52:49,431
Cheers.
895
00:53:18,229 --> 00:53:21,297
Thank you for the baking lesson.
896
00:53:21,332 --> 00:53:23,832
- It was marvelous.
- For me too.
897
00:53:23,868 --> 00:53:28,204
It's been a long time
since I baked Christmas cookies.
898
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:32,975
So are you enjoying yourself, or
does the question need not be asked?
899
00:53:33,010 --> 00:53:37,213
- It's very well-organized.
- It is.
900
00:53:37,248 --> 00:53:41,517
You know, it could do with
a little bit more holiday cheer.
901
00:53:41,552 --> 00:53:44,386
You should come to the
Christmas Eve black tie dinner.
902
00:53:44,422 --> 00:53:47,189
In comparison,
this is a carnival.
903
00:53:47,225 --> 00:53:48,691
I'm confused.
904
00:53:48,726 --> 00:53:50,237
If your father
loved Christmas so much,
905
00:53:50,261 --> 00:53:55,231
then why is it so...
not festive?
906
00:53:55,266 --> 00:53:58,901
My father was the one
who made these events festive.
907
00:53:58,936 --> 00:54:01,422
- He enjoyed the gatherings.
- You don't?
908
00:54:02,940 --> 00:54:05,874
Not so much.
909
00:54:05,910 --> 00:54:08,043
Maybe you should start
your own traditions.
910
00:54:08,079 --> 00:54:09,912
New traditions.
911
00:54:11,115 --> 00:54:13,215
Speaking of new traditions,
912
00:54:13,251 --> 00:54:15,417
I have something
I want to show you.
913
00:54:15,453 --> 00:54:17,419
Does it mean we get to leave?
914
00:54:17,455 --> 00:54:18,754
Yes.
915
00:54:24,962 --> 00:54:26,462
Here we are.
916
00:54:27,965 --> 00:54:29,932
For Regina, my driver,
917
00:54:29,967 --> 00:54:32,601
a cashmere scarf
and some driving gloves.
918
00:54:32,637 --> 00:54:33,969
That's perfect.
919
00:54:34,005 --> 00:54:36,372
And then for Margaret,
the head chef,
920
00:54:36,407 --> 00:54:39,808
a set of antique serving spoons
she's always admired.
921
00:54:39,844 --> 00:54:41,510
That's a great idea.
922
00:54:44,582 --> 00:54:45,948
Thank you so much.
923
00:54:50,488 --> 00:54:52,154
Okay, you...
924
00:54:52,189 --> 00:54:56,458
- They look cozy.
- They sure do.
925
00:54:56,494 --> 00:54:58,527
All right.
926
00:55:59,657 --> 00:56:00,689
Hello.
927
00:56:01,325 --> 00:56:03,459
What has you awake at this hour?
928
00:56:03,494 --> 00:56:06,662
I couldn't sleep. Thought
I'd make some hot chocolate.
929
00:56:08,165 --> 00:56:12,434
Curing insomnia
with sugar and caffeine?
930
00:56:14,905 --> 00:56:17,639
I can ask the staff to help.
931
00:56:17,675 --> 00:56:20,743
No, I'm perfectly capable
of boiling milk and chocolate.
932
00:56:20,778 --> 00:56:23,979
So you're sure don't need
any help at all?
933
00:56:25,182 --> 00:56:27,216
Maybe a little.
934
00:56:30,020 --> 00:56:33,355
So do you often have chocolate
in the middle of the night?
935
00:56:33,391 --> 00:56:36,992
Well, I figure chocolate
comes from cocoa,
936
00:56:37,027 --> 00:56:39,228
which comes from a tree,
which makes it a plant,
937
00:56:39,263 --> 00:56:41,096
which means
I'm kind of having a salad.
938
00:56:41,098 --> 00:56:44,500
I like your logic.
Can you keep a secret?
939
00:56:44,535 --> 00:56:46,702
I keep a stash of candy
in my office.
940
00:56:46,737 --> 00:56:48,704
Oh, a state secret.
941
00:56:52,143 --> 00:56:56,545
So the pageant's in five days,
and then you go home?
942
00:56:59,116 --> 00:57:00,916
I do.
943
00:57:00,951 --> 00:57:03,452
Although...
944
00:57:03,487 --> 00:57:05,921
What?
945
00:57:05,956 --> 00:57:09,892
I guess I've been
in such a big rush to get home,
946
00:57:09,927 --> 00:57:14,930
but lately I've realized why I spent
the past four years on the road.
947
00:57:14,965 --> 00:57:19,902
To me, home is where my mom was,
especially at Christmas.
948
00:57:19,937 --> 00:57:22,871
I guess I'm not so sure if going home
is actually gonna feel like home.
949
00:57:25,176 --> 00:57:26,575
I mean, back in New Jersey,
950
00:57:26,610 --> 00:57:29,478
I have a lot of people I love...
friends, family.
951
00:57:29,513 --> 00:57:30,879
A beau?
952
00:57:32,616 --> 00:57:37,052
- No, no beau.
- Oh, no...
953
00:57:37,087 --> 00:57:40,355
Well, I find that hard to believe.
Why not?
954
00:57:42,159 --> 00:57:45,394
I was dating someone, but
touring and distance took a toll,
955
00:57:45,429 --> 00:57:49,097
and I don't think I wanted
to get close to anyone else.
956
00:57:49,133 --> 00:57:50,732
How come?
957
00:57:53,337 --> 00:57:55,503
After my mom passed away, I...
958
00:57:57,541 --> 00:58:00,809
I didn't want
to lose anyone else.
959
00:58:00,845 --> 00:58:02,978
What if you didn't
have to lose anyone?
960
00:58:09,386 --> 00:58:11,620
What about you?
Do you date?
961
00:58:11,655 --> 00:58:14,323
Not since
Christina's mother passed.
962
00:58:16,627 --> 00:58:19,962
I've devoted all my free time
to Christina.
963
00:58:19,997 --> 00:58:24,500
Plus, dating in the national
spotlight's a little bit daunting.
964
00:58:24,535 --> 00:58:28,537
Although I think
I'm ready to find someone.
965
00:58:28,572 --> 00:58:31,173
I know how much
Christina wants a family.
966
00:58:31,208 --> 00:58:33,775
And when I see her with you...
967
00:58:38,082 --> 00:58:40,382
I should get back to this.
968
00:58:40,417 --> 00:58:44,319
What is it,
some more state secrets?
969
00:58:44,355 --> 00:58:47,489
It's the Christmas Eve
dinner plan.
970
00:58:49,093 --> 00:58:51,994
So it's who's invited,
who sits where.
971
00:58:52,029 --> 00:58:53,695
The diplomats
with the diplomats,
972
00:58:53,731 --> 00:58:56,365
and the Cabinet is separated,
so they don't fight.
973
00:59:00,104 --> 00:59:02,337
Where would a commoner
like me sit?
974
00:59:04,041 --> 00:59:06,642
Well, there's nothing common
about you at all.
975
00:59:06,677 --> 00:59:11,346
So I mean, if you were to come
to the Christmas Eve dinner,
976
00:59:11,382 --> 00:59:13,949
I would seat you
right next to me.
977
00:59:26,463 --> 00:59:27,996
I have some news.
978
00:59:28,032 --> 00:59:29,976
I just got off the phone
with the real estate broker.
979
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:31,767
The rink I was telling
you about in Trenton,
980
00:59:31,802 --> 00:59:33,802
- it just came on the market.
- That's great.
981
00:59:33,837 --> 00:59:36,116
Except that there's already some
potential buyers interested,
982
00:59:36,140 --> 00:59:38,840
so I was thinking maybe I should
go home and take a look at it.
983
00:59:38,876 --> 00:59:41,443
Okay, well, I...
984
00:59:41,478 --> 00:59:43,078
Besides you're gonna be home
in five days,
985
00:59:43,113 --> 00:59:45,914
and until then,
I will fill you in on everything.
986
00:59:45,950 --> 00:59:47,449
Okay.
987
00:59:51,422 --> 00:59:54,022
I'm so sorry
I have to leave so early.
988
00:59:56,794 --> 00:59:59,928
- Will you come back soon?
- I hope so.
989
01:00:01,932 --> 01:00:04,766
And I'll come visit you
in New Jersey.
990
01:00:04,802 --> 01:00:07,703
New. And then we'll go
visit Old Jersey together.
991
01:00:08,806 --> 01:00:10,539
- Bye, guys.
- Bye!
992
01:00:10,574 --> 01:00:12,107
- I love you.
- Call me when you land.
993
01:00:12,142 --> 01:00:14,042
I will, I promise.
994
01:00:21,085 --> 01:00:23,752
Are you sure you're able
to travel in this state?
995
01:00:23,787 --> 01:00:27,255
- I'll be okay.
- You don't need any assistance?
996
01:00:27,291 --> 01:00:29,191
Is that an option?
997
01:00:34,665 --> 01:00:37,699
- I'll come visit.
- I'd love that.
998
01:01:10,901 --> 01:01:13,468
You sound so beautiful,
Tina-bear.
999
01:01:15,005 --> 01:01:16,872
I'm just practicing
for caroling tomorrow.
1000
01:01:16,907 --> 01:01:19,041
And everyone asked me
to go sledding after.
1001
01:01:19,076 --> 01:01:21,777
- Can I go?
- Well, do you have time?
1002
01:01:21,812 --> 01:01:25,047
Well, I already know my part.
I'm just waiting for Katie.
1003
01:01:25,082 --> 01:01:27,449
And what's wrong?
1004
01:01:27,484 --> 01:01:30,619
I'm waiting for her
to want to practice together.
1005
01:01:30,654 --> 01:01:32,788
I don't think
she wants to skate.
1006
01:01:56,580 --> 01:01:58,714
What are you doing?
1007
01:01:58,749 --> 01:02:01,483
Going over the pageant
choreography in my head.
1008
01:02:03,087 --> 01:02:06,021
Why in your head?
Why not just skate it?
1009
01:02:07,424 --> 01:02:11,571
I tell myself that even though
in my dreams I'm on the ice,
1010
01:02:11,606 --> 01:02:15,063
and every time I hear music,
I envision myself doing a routine,
1011
01:02:15,099 --> 01:02:19,234
I still tell myself
I'm okay not skating.
1012
01:02:19,269 --> 01:02:22,738
But agreeing to be in the pageant
and working with Christina,
1013
01:02:22,773 --> 01:02:25,741
it's made me realize
that I miss skating...
1014
01:02:25,776 --> 01:02:27,309
so much.
1015
01:02:30,647 --> 01:02:33,081
I'm scared to get
back out there.
1016
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:40,555
You know,
I'm terrified to be king.
1017
01:02:40,591 --> 01:02:43,725
But I can't not do it
just because I'm afraid.
1018
01:03:24,368 --> 01:03:27,335
I didn't think
you could make it.
1019
01:03:27,371 --> 01:03:29,437
Do you remember
this is where first met?
1020
01:03:29,473 --> 01:03:32,240
- When you were hiding.
- I wasn't hiding.
1021
01:04:20,324 --> 01:04:23,024
San Senova is famous
for its night skies.
1022
01:04:23,060 --> 01:04:25,227
Is that why you have
a star on your flag?
1023
01:04:25,262 --> 01:04:29,631
Partially, but legend has it
that the star on the flag
1024
01:04:29,666 --> 01:04:31,333
is actually the Christmas star.
1025
01:04:31,368 --> 01:04:34,002
You're familiar with the story
of Princess Sonia...
1026
01:04:34,037 --> 01:04:35,470
Very well by now.
1027
01:04:35,505 --> 01:04:39,708
Well, the legend says
that as the night fell,
1028
01:04:39,743 --> 01:04:42,878
Sonia and Catherine
followed the Christmas star
1029
01:04:42,913 --> 01:04:45,547
and guided the villagers
back to safety.
1030
01:04:45,582 --> 01:04:47,749
I didn't think
the Christmas star was real.
1031
01:04:47,784 --> 01:04:50,185
You know, my father
use explain it as
1032
01:04:50,220 --> 01:04:53,588
like a personal guiding light,
1033
01:04:53,624 --> 01:04:55,724
something inside of us.
1034
01:04:55,759 --> 01:04:57,325
He used to say
that if I was ever lost
1035
01:04:57,361 --> 01:05:00,395
and didn't know which way to go,
1036
01:05:00,430 --> 01:05:03,031
I could come out
and find the San Senova star,
1037
01:05:03,066 --> 01:05:05,901
the Christmas Star,
and it'd guide me home.
1038
01:05:05,936 --> 01:05:07,903
That's what
you're doing out here.
1039
01:05:07,938 --> 01:05:10,605
Looking for guidance.
1040
01:05:10,641 --> 01:05:13,775
I guess I am.
1041
01:05:13,810 --> 01:05:17,279
You know, I don't always know
how to be king,
1042
01:05:17,314 --> 01:05:19,748
so I come out here,
and I find that star
1043
01:05:19,783 --> 01:05:23,184
and try and remember who I am,
1044
01:05:23,220 --> 01:05:26,488
what I want, and what I love.
1045
01:05:31,662 --> 01:05:34,596
What star do you
imagine it to be?
1046
01:05:34,631 --> 01:05:38,767
That's easy. It's...
It's that one.
1047
01:05:38,802 --> 01:05:41,269
- It's that one?
- No, no.
1048
01:05:47,210 --> 01:05:48,476
It's...
1049
01:05:50,814 --> 01:05:53,148
that one there.
1050
01:06:10,701 --> 01:06:12,267
Sorry.
1051
01:06:14,071 --> 01:06:15,337
Of course.
1052
01:06:16,707 --> 01:06:18,673
- Hi.
- Katie, hi.
1053
01:06:18,709 --> 01:06:21,309
I'm at the rink, and it's...
it's perfect.
1054
01:06:21,345 --> 01:06:25,146
But there are other buyers, and
one's already putting in an offer.
1055
01:06:25,182 --> 01:06:26,426
- What should I do?
- I don't know.
1056
01:06:26,450 --> 01:06:28,216
Do we have to make an offer now?
1057
01:06:28,251 --> 01:06:30,518
The pageant's in three days.
I'll be home in four.
1058
01:06:30,554 --> 01:06:32,420
Okay.
1059
01:06:32,456 --> 01:06:34,823
Okay, yeah,
I'll try to buy us time.
1060
01:06:34,858 --> 01:06:36,424
Okay, yeah, just keep me posted.
1061
01:06:36,460 --> 01:06:39,060
- I will. Bye.
- Bye.
1062
01:06:41,798 --> 01:06:43,431
It's getting cold.
1063
01:06:43,467 --> 01:06:47,168
- We should probably go in.
- Yeah.
1064
01:07:01,284 --> 01:07:03,551
Do you have a grievance
with that parcel, sir?
1065
01:07:03,587 --> 01:07:06,521
Would you like to try?
1066
01:07:14,264 --> 01:07:19,267
- What is it?
- It's a little something for Katie.
1067
01:07:19,302 --> 01:07:21,536
She's leaving soon,
so it's the least I could do.
1068
01:07:21,571 --> 01:07:24,305
After all,
she produced the pageant,
1069
01:07:24,341 --> 01:07:26,541
helped with the staff
Christmas gifts.
1070
01:07:26,576 --> 01:07:29,177
- Christina really loves her and...
- And you have feelings.
1071
01:07:31,014 --> 01:07:32,714
What makes you think
I have feelings?
1072
01:07:34,117 --> 01:07:36,885
The article in the paper, sir.
1073
01:07:40,924 --> 01:07:43,291
Alex, relax.
1074
01:07:43,326 --> 01:07:47,395
You're allowed to have feelings.
No one's gonna judge you for it.
1075
01:07:47,431 --> 01:07:50,298
In fact, people will like you
all the more.
1076
01:07:50,333 --> 01:07:52,901
- Katie's leaving.
- So?
1077
01:07:52,936 --> 01:07:55,970
I've heard there's
this miraculous invention
1078
01:07:56,006 --> 01:07:58,473
called "the aeroplane".
1079
01:08:00,043 --> 01:08:02,644
You could go there,
she could come here.
1080
01:08:04,347 --> 01:08:06,414
It's just not that simple.
1081
01:08:06,450 --> 01:08:08,950
She can't imagine how difficult
this whole situation is.
1082
01:08:08,985 --> 01:08:11,820
No, you're right.
She can't imagine it,
1083
01:08:11,855 --> 01:08:15,090
so you're going
to have to tell her.
1084
01:08:17,661 --> 01:08:19,294
Okay, first run-through in five.
1085
01:08:19,329 --> 01:08:21,463
Katie, Alex is asking to see you.
1086
01:08:21,498 --> 01:08:24,265
Now? We're about to do
our first run-through.
1087
01:08:24,301 --> 01:08:27,368
Well, I can take over
for you for a bit.
1088
01:08:27,404 --> 01:08:31,673
I get to pretend I'm in charge.
Mustn't keep the king waiting.
1089
01:08:31,708 --> 01:08:33,408
Thank you.
1090
01:08:45,388 --> 01:08:47,288
- Hello.
- Hi.
1091
01:08:47,324 --> 01:08:50,125
I didn't know
if you'd seen this.
1092
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:53,728
I didn't.
1093
01:08:53,763 --> 01:08:55,130
What do you think?
1094
01:08:55,165 --> 01:08:59,367
I think the photographer
got my good side?
1095
01:08:59,402 --> 01:09:01,536
I like that about you.
1096
01:09:01,571 --> 01:09:03,505
My photogenic angles?
1097
01:09:03,540 --> 01:09:05,473
Your ability to see
the good in everything.
1098
01:09:07,844 --> 01:09:10,712
Because you don't see
the good in this.
1099
01:09:10,747 --> 01:09:13,882
It's just not so simple as a flirtation
when the country's watching
1100
01:09:13,917 --> 01:09:18,052
and Christina is growing attached,
and you're leaving.
1101
01:09:19,623 --> 01:09:23,057
I understand it's not
so simple a flirtation.
1102
01:09:23,093 --> 01:09:25,760
- That's not what I meant.
- It's okay because it's true.
1103
01:09:25,795 --> 01:09:29,754
That's, that's all it is.
You're a king, and I'm...
1104
01:09:31,601 --> 01:09:33,067
...leaving.
1105
01:09:36,239 --> 01:09:39,240
So what else is there to say?
1106
01:09:44,814 --> 01:09:47,048
I should get back to rehearsal.
1107
01:09:55,859 --> 01:09:58,726
- Hi.
- Hey, I'm at the ice rink.
1108
01:09:58,762 --> 01:10:00,795
Someone's already
put in an offer,
1109
01:10:00,830 --> 01:10:02,842
and the real estate broker's
asking us what we want to do.
1110
01:10:02,866 --> 01:10:06,134
Well, what do you think
we should do?
1111
01:10:06,169 --> 01:10:08,002
I want to put in an offer,
1112
01:10:08,038 --> 01:10:10,305
but that seems crazy to me
when you haven't even seen it.
1113
01:10:10,340 --> 01:10:11,773
I mean, what if
you don't like it?
1114
01:10:11,808 --> 01:10:13,641
I trust you.
1115
01:10:13,677 --> 01:10:16,144
Katie, this is a huge decision.
1116
01:10:16,179 --> 01:10:18,947
I can't make it for both of us.
1117
01:10:24,955 --> 01:10:27,322
Well done, very good.
1118
01:10:27,357 --> 01:10:30,258
It's almost time
for our rehearsal.
1119
01:10:30,293 --> 01:10:32,827
Watch your hands.
A bit higher.
1120
01:10:32,862 --> 01:10:35,697
I'm so sorry, Christina.
1121
01:10:35,732 --> 01:10:37,699
But Jessica needs me.
I have to go home.
1122
01:10:37,734 --> 01:10:39,634
What?
1123
01:10:39,669 --> 01:10:41,836
I found a replacement
for the queen role.
1124
01:10:41,871 --> 01:10:43,504
She's a great skater.
1125
01:10:44,641 --> 01:10:45,940
You're leaving?
1126
01:10:47,877 --> 01:10:49,344
I'm so sorry.
1127
01:10:57,921 --> 01:10:59,754
This is for you.
1128
01:11:18,375 --> 01:11:20,141
Ma'am.
1129
01:11:23,446 --> 01:11:25,179
Is that Katie's costume?
1130
01:11:25,215 --> 01:11:28,182
So she's finally going
to practice with Christina?
1131
01:11:28,218 --> 01:11:31,586
I'm sorry.
I thought you knew.
1132
01:11:31,621 --> 01:11:34,522
- I knew what?
- Katie went home.
1133
01:11:55,211 --> 01:11:58,719
- What are you watching?
- A Christmas movie.
1134
01:11:59,683 --> 01:12:03,017
Well, we both know
how that's going to end.
1135
01:12:08,258 --> 01:12:10,191
Any chance you've
changed your mind
1136
01:12:10,226 --> 01:12:12,627
about performing at the pageant?
1137
01:12:12,662 --> 01:12:14,228
No.
1138
01:12:14,264 --> 01:12:16,164
I don't want to play
Princess Sonia.
1139
01:12:16,199 --> 01:12:20,201
Besides, Katie's replacement
doesn't know the part.
1140
01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,808
Well, Tina-bear,
1141
01:12:26,843 --> 01:12:30,545
you do know your dear old dad
is quite the skater.
1142
01:12:30,580 --> 01:12:32,613
What if I replaced Katie?
1143
01:12:35,418 --> 01:12:36,384
You?
1144
01:12:36,419 --> 01:12:40,488
- The part's for a queen.
- But it can be for a king.
1145
01:12:40,523 --> 01:12:42,223
It's our Christmas tradition.
1146
01:12:42,258 --> 01:12:45,360
And we may not have a queen,
1147
01:12:45,395 --> 01:12:49,764
but we have a princess,
and we have a king.
1148
01:12:49,799 --> 01:12:51,532
There's nothing
more important for me
1149
01:12:51,568 --> 01:12:53,668
than spending time at Christmas
with you.
1150
01:13:01,945 --> 01:13:03,544
Aunt Patricia,
1151
01:13:03,580 --> 01:13:06,080
I was wondering if you could
help me with something.
1152
01:13:06,116 --> 01:13:07,915
Well, of course.
1153
01:13:07,951 --> 01:13:10,852
I've decided I want to cancel
the Christmas Eve dinner.
1154
01:13:10,887 --> 01:13:13,087
Really?
1155
01:13:13,123 --> 01:13:16,391
I think we can start
a new tradition.
1156
01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:20,581
A quiet family Christmas,
just us.
1157
01:13:21,297 --> 01:13:23,931
Sounds lovely, Alex.
1158
01:13:23,967 --> 01:13:26,000
Come on, let's go.
1159
01:13:29,239 --> 01:13:31,372
You heard His Majesty.
1160
01:13:40,150 --> 01:13:42,450
Hey!
1161
01:13:42,485 --> 01:13:44,252
Look what I picked up
this morning.
1162
01:13:44,287 --> 01:13:47,722
We're still in escrow,
but everything looks good,
1163
01:13:47,757 --> 01:13:50,391
and the old owners said
to make this rink our own.
1164
01:13:50,427 --> 01:13:52,293
- So...
- Okay.
1165
01:13:53,496 --> 01:13:54,529
Where are you going?
1166
01:13:59,335 --> 01:14:01,202
What?
1167
01:14:07,377 --> 01:14:09,577
Kind of like a real Christmas.
1168
01:14:20,290 --> 01:14:21,756
Thank you.
1169
01:14:26,529 --> 01:14:30,731
You were so close.
Why did you stop?
1170
01:14:37,807 --> 01:14:39,774
I guess I didn't want
to get hurt.
1171
01:14:39,809 --> 01:14:44,378
I didn't want to get close
and lose someone again.
1172
01:14:44,414 --> 01:14:46,347
It doesn't make sense anyway.
1173
01:14:46,382 --> 01:14:48,783
Alex and I come from
completely different worlds.
1174
01:14:48,818 --> 01:14:50,852
We want different things.
1175
01:14:53,056 --> 01:14:55,790
I was asking about skating.
1176
01:14:58,228 --> 01:15:01,629
But you and Alex want
the same things...
1177
01:15:01,664 --> 01:15:04,131
each other and family.
1178
01:15:04,167 --> 01:15:06,701
And I think the home that you
were hoping you would find here,
1179
01:15:06,736 --> 01:15:08,569
you found in San Senova.
1180
01:15:08,605 --> 01:15:10,638
I know how scared you are
1181
01:15:10,673 --> 01:15:12,073
of putting your heart
into something
1182
01:15:12,108 --> 01:15:14,242
and really wanting it
and not getting it,
1183
01:15:14,277 --> 01:15:15,855
but you didn't get
what you wanted with skating
1184
01:15:15,879 --> 01:15:17,512
not because
you weren't good enough,
1185
01:15:17,547 --> 01:15:19,881
but because you gave up on it.
1186
01:15:19,916 --> 01:15:21,949
You shut down to it.
1187
01:15:24,187 --> 01:15:28,756
You are my best friend, Katie.
You're like a sister to me.
1188
01:15:28,791 --> 01:15:30,758
I don't want to watch you
waste any more time
1189
01:15:30,793 --> 01:15:34,595
wishing that you'd gone after
the thing you really love.
1190
01:15:34,631 --> 01:15:38,733
What was that thing your mom
always said about Christmas?
1191
01:15:38,768 --> 01:15:41,235
It's a time
when we open our hearts.
1192
01:15:41,271 --> 01:15:43,404
Or reopen them.
1193
01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:46,007
Even when we're scared,
even when we've been hurt.
1194
01:15:46,042 --> 01:15:47,174
Especially then.
1195
01:15:50,246 --> 01:15:52,613
Go back to San Senova.
1196
01:15:52,649 --> 01:15:56,017
- I can't.
- I can't leave you. You're family.
1197
01:15:56,052 --> 01:15:58,619
Yeah, but wherever we go,
we'll always have each other.
1198
01:15:58,655 --> 01:16:02,423
- But we just bought an ice rink.
- Yes, we did.
1199
01:16:02,458 --> 01:16:04,759
But I was thinking,
1200
01:16:04,794 --> 01:16:08,262
if you wanted to do
something else,
1201
01:16:08,298 --> 01:16:11,232
then maybe you could be
a silent partner here.
1202
01:16:13,269 --> 01:16:18,539
How are you going to start
and run a business alone?
1203
01:16:18,575 --> 01:16:22,977
Well, actually,
I might have some help.
1204
01:16:23,012 --> 01:16:25,346
And some help has arrived.
1205
01:16:27,517 --> 01:16:29,617
- Hi!
- Hi.
1206
01:16:32,689 --> 01:16:35,890
- It's good to see you.
- Good to see you too.
1207
01:16:35,925 --> 01:16:37,825
Our Jessica leaves
quite the lasting impression.
1208
01:16:37,860 --> 01:16:39,627
That she does.
1209
01:16:39,662 --> 01:16:43,965
And we felt, as crazy as it is,
we had to give it a shot.
1210
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:45,333
Have an adventure.
1211
01:16:45,368 --> 01:16:49,203
And I feel that running a training
center could be in my wheelhouse.
1212
01:16:49,238 --> 01:16:53,040
After all, I've spent the last decade
overseeing the politics of a nation.
1213
01:16:53,076 --> 01:16:57,211
I believe I'm well-versed
in performance and spectacle.
1214
01:16:58,381 --> 01:16:59,647
From the king.
1215
01:17:01,351 --> 01:17:02,650
Thank you.
1216
01:17:05,521 --> 01:17:06,821
Bye.
1217
01:17:28,778 --> 01:17:30,478
Dear Katie,
1218
01:17:30,513 --> 01:17:33,381
I remember you said
that people who care for you
1219
01:17:33,416 --> 01:17:35,750
give you ornaments at Christmas,
1220
01:17:35,785 --> 01:17:39,387
although I'm sure you will
argue this isn't an ornament.
1221
01:17:39,422 --> 01:17:41,589
It's my Christmas star,
1222
01:17:41,624 --> 01:17:44,291
and I hope it guides you home.
1223
01:17:44,327 --> 01:17:46,127
Love, Alex".
1224
01:17:56,339 --> 01:17:59,106
Five, everybody!
Places in five!
1225
01:18:01,477 --> 01:18:04,578
You look beautiful, Tina-bear.
1226
01:18:06,115 --> 01:18:08,315
Alex, Alex!
1227
01:18:08,351 --> 01:18:10,518
I thought before you went on,
1228
01:18:10,553 --> 01:18:13,754
there's something
you ought to see.
1229
01:18:15,491 --> 01:18:17,758
"San Senova's New Founder's Day.
1230
01:18:17,794 --> 01:18:20,327
Tradition hosted by
the new Christmas King".
1231
01:18:20,363 --> 01:18:22,329
The new Christmas King.
1232
01:18:22,365 --> 01:18:26,133
Now, curtain's almost up,
so you'll give your speech,
1233
01:18:26,169 --> 01:18:29,704
- and then... we'll begin.
- Come on.
1234
01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:46,287
I'll see you out there
in a second.
1235
01:19:04,540 --> 01:19:06,707
Merry Christmas Eve,
1236
01:19:06,743 --> 01:19:10,544
and welcome to San Senova's
Founder's Day Pageant,
1237
01:19:10,580 --> 01:19:13,714
which I hope will be
the first of many to come.
1238
01:19:13,750 --> 01:19:17,218
It was always my father's dream
to celebrate our founding
1239
01:19:17,253 --> 01:19:18,986
with a Christmas spectacle.
1240
01:19:19,021 --> 01:19:20,221
- Christina.
- Katie!
1241
01:19:22,692 --> 01:19:25,760
You came back!
1242
01:19:25,795 --> 01:19:28,496
I'm so sorry I left.
Can you forgive me?
1243
01:19:28,531 --> 01:19:32,366
The retelling
of how San Senova came to be.
1244
01:19:34,370 --> 01:19:36,303
Daddy!
1245
01:19:46,716 --> 01:19:49,550
This has been
a very special Christmas,
1246
01:19:49,585 --> 01:19:52,386
perhaps the most special
1247
01:19:52,421 --> 01:19:58,225
because I was shown
the true meaning of the holiday,
1248
01:19:58,261 --> 01:20:02,296
that Christmas is a time
that no matter where we are
1249
01:20:02,331 --> 01:20:05,633
or how we are, we're
brought back to one another,
1250
01:20:05,668 --> 01:20:10,304
that Christmas is a day that
reminds us of our greatest gifts:
1251
01:20:10,339 --> 01:20:12,373
our family,
1252
01:20:12,408 --> 01:20:14,708
our friends,
1253
01:20:14,744 --> 01:20:17,812
our community,
1254
01:20:17,847 --> 01:20:19,780
and our country.
1255
01:20:28,491 --> 01:20:30,024
The people we love.
1256
01:20:33,296 --> 01:20:36,397
That Christmas is a day
that guides us home.
1257
01:20:36,432 --> 01:20:39,099
So from my family to yours,
1258
01:20:39,135 --> 01:20:42,803
I wish you all
a very merry Christmas.
1259
01:20:52,949 --> 01:20:54,281
Cheers.
1260
01:21:07,029 --> 01:21:09,096
The ice is yours.
1261
01:21:27,416 --> 01:21:29,450
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
1262
01:21:42,298 --> 01:21:44,965
I'm very glad
I didn't have to do that.
1263
01:22:01,050 --> 01:22:05,052
- I'm so happy you came back.
- Me too.
1264
01:22:05,087 --> 01:22:08,355
I realized that
I don't want to train anymore.
1265
01:22:08,391 --> 01:22:09,890
I want to skate.
1266
01:22:09,926 --> 01:22:12,893
And I was thinking
San Senova has the tourists,
1267
01:22:12,929 --> 01:22:14,628
you've got a rink,
1268
01:22:14,664 --> 01:22:16,575
we've got the perfect makings
for a permanent show.
1269
01:22:16,599 --> 01:22:18,766
With a role for me, I hope.
1270
01:22:18,801 --> 01:22:21,368
You'd have to audition.
1271
01:22:22,571 --> 01:22:27,408
Katie, it doesn't matter to me if I'm
a king, and you're the prom queen.
1272
01:22:27,443 --> 01:22:33,150
I'm just a man who loves a woman
who he hopes loves him back.
1273
01:22:47,151 --> 01:22:53,150
