Coco. He's safe now.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
The crew did the best we could, but the living room's pretty flooded.
Also, the tree and the present couldn't be saved.
But we did manage to salvage the bedrooms and those big cases in your
office. We can't thank you enough.
You saved what matters most.
You're right.
Things can be replaced.
People can.
But still.
No one should have to lose out on Christmas.
I'm very sorry.
Thank you.
Anne.
Danny.
You okay?
Yes, Chief.
You're holding my breath since you ran back into the house. That's a bigger
fire than we've faced lately.
I'm fine, Dad.
I learned from the best.
Besides, no one's leaving anyone behind on my watch.
Do you always have to make me proud and worried at the same time?
Oh.
It's Valerie from LTV.
I bet half the neighborhood caught your latest rescue on the phones.
She'll be wanting to talk to the chief.
Oh, no, honey, no. That's all you. You've earned it.
Show me you're ready for a bigger leadership position, especially if
you're serious about that fire captain promotion.
Well, what about Tom there?
Yeah, how about Tom?
Tom's always happy to help.
Oh, I'm sure Tom would be, but talking about yourself in third person is number
five on the no-go media training list.
Besides, we owe it to Danny. She's the one that went back inside there and
showed this community that we're here for them.
It's not wrong.
Go get them, kiddo.
Go get them. And here she is, the woman of the hour, firefighter Danny Reed from
Station 11, who just saved the Lee family, including their beloved dog.
What advice do you have for our viewers about staying safe this holiday season?
Prevention is key.
Stop fires before they start.
And follow-up question.
How does it feel to be the hero of the hour?
Well, thanks to the bravery of our crew, everyone is safe.
I just wish we could have done more for the family.
What more do you wish you could have done?
Well, we can't change what happened, but we can make sure that families like the
Lees feel the support of our town behind them this Christmas.
I'd say...
We bring back the Holiday Heroes Charity Drive.
Everyone deserves a safe and happy holiday.
Wow.
There isn't much time left. Do you really think you can still make a
difference? Well, if there's one thing I know about Silver Pines, it's that we
all come together in times of need.
I think we can manage with everyone working together.
Wow. Well, you heard it here, Silver Pines. With less than two weeks till
Christmas, the Holiday Heroes Charity Drive is back.
I'm Valerie Petrillo.
Signing off.
I
just
felt like we had to do more.
There's always that moment during a fire, isn't there, when you think, how's
this family going to bounce back?
You did good, Danny.
I keep thinking about how you and Mom worked so hard to make Christmas
mornings feel special, and how Mom made volunteering a Christmas tradition,
especially when she started Holiday Heroes.
She'd be proud of you today.
I miss that big heart of hers.
I haven't had it in me since she passed, but if you want to take the lead on this
fundraiser, I've got your back.
Thanks, Dad.
It feels like a good way to honor a memory.
It is.
Keep in mind, a lot of charities depend on this time of year for their funding,
so you've got your work cut out for you.
Not to mention everything going on around the station.
You sure it's not too much?
I can handle it, Dad.
It's good that you're stepping up, especially with me moving up to District
Chief in the new year.
Station 11 is going to need a strong fire captain.
And?
I'd love for it to be me.
But I'm worried the crew might not take it well with me being the chief's kid
and all. I didn't say it was yours for the taking. Right.
But you have worked very hard these last seven years.
Maybe too hard sometimes.
Well, you better start planning. Figure out how to get these people out to give.
Give what?
Holiday heroes.
Danny's bringing it back.
You in?
Absolutely.
Well, look at this. You see, this is the kind of enthusiasm I'll be looking for
when I choose the new fire captain.
As district chief, I won't be able to attend all the events or press
briefings. I'll need someone to represent Station 11, but also someone
who can rally the community.
Well, if it helps with the promotion, count me in.
Yes, I thought you might like that, Tom. But also, helping the town is motivation
enough, right, Tom? Yes, yes. Also, the town, yes. Yes. But Christmas is, what,
two weeks away? Mm-hmm. Where do we start?
I have an idea on how to get things going.
Danny! Saw you made the news last night. Quite the hometown hero.
Thanks. Although not as glamorous as Miss Event Planner to the stars.
It's Event Designer, and trust me, it is far from glamorous. All work, no glory,
just demanding clients for days.
Looks like you're getting a lot of love on the socials, going back for the
family dog, reviving the holiday hero's drive.
I'm proud of you, sis.
Thanks.
I just keep thinking about that little girl and her family.
Yeah, that's tough, especially this time of year. I can't remember the last time
there was such a big fire.
So how can I help?
Hoping you can lend your expertise to the cause.
Help us raise money for the Lee family and any others in the community who
might need it.
Just like Mom and Dad used to do.
Well, it'll certainly be a walk down memory lane. Mom had us pitching in from
the time we could talk.
I remember. You always got confused as to why we couldn't take all the toys
home. We were just kids, and in my teeny brain, I thought giving meant to me.
Well, that still tracks with your dating life.
What can I say? Confidence is my love language, and it never hurts to ask.
Speaking of, any eligible recruits at the station?
Well, you know I'm not checking them out.
But there's always Tom.
Tom?
Funny. Last time I saw him, he was trying to ask me to prom with a fire
extinguisher. Points for effort.
He always knew he wanted to be a firefighter, just like me.
At least now he can string a sentence together.
Mostly. Sounds like a keeper. Most guys these days think texts with emojis count
as emotional connection.
I wouldn't know.
It's been a while.
Well, we should change that.
I know someone you might really like.
Seriously? Are they okay with a part-time relationship? Because I am
always working. Perfect. So is she.
Anyway, I know you're coming home for Christmas, but is there any chance we
could get an early jump start to help with the charity? You sure you can
afford me? I was hoping for the family discount.
I've got a lot riding on that.
It's not just about reviving the charity. I'm also going for the fire
captain promotion.
I need the team to know that I earned it. You know, not just because I'm the
chief's kid.
I want to make a difference.
In my own way.
I am so proud of you.
This is a great step forward, and I don't think it'll take much to prove
your worth.
Thanks, sis.
I really hope you're right.
Well, you are in luck. I have vacation time and a team handling the Christmas
events at the agency.
I'll be there.
Yeah.
But fair warning, all the charities are competing for donors this time of year.
I know.
Dad mentioned that, too.
Which is why we need to go big with getting the word out online, on air, on
everything.
Actually, this might be a good chance for you to get your feet wet with a
little media training.
Fire Captain means that you will be the face of the team dealing with the press
at every scene and keeping the public informed.
Yeah, it's a big part of the job.
To be honest, I'm still kind of getting used to the idea.
I'm more of a behind-the-scenes person, you know.
I'll walk you through it. You'll be fine.
And I'll bring my photographer friend from the agency to help.
Okay. You're the expert.
Don't worry, Lilith. I got you.
It's been a little quiet without you here.
It's going to be so good to have you home.
I can't wait either.
I love you.
Love you, too.
Bye.
Call Sasha.
Oh, I was just calling you. I heard.
So how's my latest photo draw?
Absolutely gorgeous, but... But? I was hoping you could help me with a little
Christmas assignment.
I thought you left the Christmas events division.
Think of it as a labor of love in a charming destination you've always
wanted to visit.
Where? And why would I do this before my trip to France?
No, it's not work.
More like holidays in my hometown, helping the fire station with their
Christmas fundraiser.
Adorable.
You know I'm more of a champagne on ice kind of gal, but yeah, I could be talked
into beer and holiday potluck.
Well, Miss Fancy Pants, need I remind you who helped you with your first gig
at the Met Gala? No, but need I remind you that I'm up for my dream job in
Paris in the new year and I could really use a little holiday.
Partly why I hope you'll join me. This could be our last chance to team up
before you leave.
You are going to miss me.
Of course I am. Plus, you're always saying you've never had a small town
Christmas and you want to meet my family, so here's your chance.
That's fair.
Yeah, and you know, the whole beach holiday thing, I guess I could retire
that for a bit.
Speak for yourself.
Seriously, though, have you even booked your flight to France?
Not yet. I'm just waiting on the final paperwork for the job offer.
Perfect. So you're available.
We'll shoot some beautiful content for the charity. You can finally meet my
sister. And then stay with us for Christmas.
Small town holiday fun it is. Yeah.
And here. Oh, for my champagne rider.
No. Early Christmas present.
Winter wear basics.
Coat and boots.
Right.
Great.
Thanks
for helping with
the charity drive, Tom. Oh, yeah. I'm here for it. Besides, earning extra
points towards fire captain promotion?
That doesn't hurt either.
So you're interested.
We all know you love the spotlight.
Whoa, it is not my fault if the camera loves me.
Seriously, though, I'm putting my hat in the ring. We all know what you do for
the station and the years you put in.
Thanks.
I'm happy to compete with you for it. Either way, I know the station will be
in good hands. Yeah, fine.
All right, let's get this up.
Take that a little higher.
And higher, higher, lower.
Lower. Oh, oh, higher.
Lower. It's good, Reed.
I'm going to put on a pot of coffee. You want some?
No.
What's that?
Do you hear that?
No.
Excuse me?
I'm not sure who you are, but you can't just start taking pictures in here.
Hi, I'm Sasha.
Jackie invited me.
Oh. Something about a fundraiser?
Oh, uh, welcome.
I'm Dani.
I'm Jackie's sister.
It's so nice to finally meet you. I've heard so many great things.
So I'm looking to create some lifestyle pics for the promo post, create some
Holiday Heroes buzz.
Wow, I'm not sure I got all that, but it sounds great.
Thank you for coming.
Wait. Wait.
There.
Beautiful.
I love this angle.
You know what? Let me grab some of the team.
There's plenty of other firefighters here more than happy to pose. Let me
just see who's around. Hey, I heard about your rescue and that you're
heading this fundraiser.
I thought you should be in it.
Well, thank you.
But I'm just focusing on doing my part and giving back.
Well, maybe you could show me around.
Tell me more about it.
That I can do.
Right this way.
Jackie took a later flight, but should be here soon.
Oh, the flight delays were brutal.
So happy you're here now. Oh, me too.
Okay, let's talk fundraiser.
I want this to be like the old Holiday Heroes days.
back when it was about helping everyone in the community that needed it. Our mom
used to organize a donation drive with local businesses, putting together,
like, gift boxes for families. And Danny and I would dress up as elves and
pretend to be Santa's little helpers.
Wow, Jackie as an elf? Gosh, I can't picture it.
I was also thinking we could organize the fund to help the Lee family get back
on their feet.
Their living room and parts of their kitchen need repair. They are staying
with family, but it would be so good to get them back in their own home.
Great idea. Well, we can start hitting up larger corporate sponsors, and I'll
put a donation page on the station's site and start reaching out. And you and
Sasha could start hitting up local vendors.
I can take photos and put them on socials. Oh.
What about a radio spot? I know the morning DJs. We take the same yoga
class. I mean, sure, but radio's kind of old school.
We want something bigger. Think community, but sexy.
Do those two things go together?
Well, it's all about what you're selling.
Friendly firefighters, but something extra that makes them stop squirreling
and donate.
I mean, this is a local thing about helping families in need.
Why don't we keep it simple?
People helping people.
It's not really attention-grabbing.
Okay, well, fine. Let's just say we're bringing back the Holiday Heroes drive.
You know how people around here rally together in times of need. Besides,
everyone knows the chief.
We'll get him to help with outreach.
It's a great place to start. I mean, who could say no to him? Say no to who?
Dad!
We're just talking inspiration for the fundraiser.
My two daughters working together?
What more could a father ask for?
And who is this?
One of my besties at work and the most amazing photographer, Sasha Dubois.
Happy to be here. Thank you for your help, Sasha.
Danny came up with this great idea, and it means a lot to us. Great. So let's
divide and conquer.
Danny, you're with Sasha. Get her out taking pictures.
Dad, we've got a phone call to make. Okay.
Nice tree.
Where'd you get all those unique ornaments?
From people we've helped over the years.
Neighbors, seniors, school kids.
Like a collection of stories from our town.
Sweet. I collect things from all my travels.
I like to bring home a little piece of every place I photograph.
I've always wanted to travel more, but I have to get away in my line of work.
I can imagine.
I take it you've lived in Silver Pines all your life? Well, I went away for
college, and I did some relief work in Haiti, but yeah.
I came back to following my dad's footsteps.
Well, firefighting is very noble and cool.
I don't know about that. More like it feels right.
Plus, I wanted to build something here that lasts.
I've been on the move all my life. I envy you putting down solid roots.
Do you go home for Christmas?
Not much to go home to.
Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to pry.
I'm an only child.
Family's spread apart.
So I guess I fool myself every year into thinking that Christmas is just another
day.
Not for me.
Christmas is my yearly reset. It's packed with traditions and marathon
hangouts with loved ones.
My family tradition is never spending Christmas in the same place twice.
Well, home isn't always a place.
It's the people.
That's why this fundraiser matters so much to me.
It's a great way to bring people together.
So where should we start?
Well, it's not the most mind-blowing idea, but I was thinking we can head on
down to the Christmas market, door-to-door, and ask the locals to get
involved. Makes sense. I can take pictures of the donors, plus it's a
great way to promote local businesses.
Win-win.
Sounds perfect.
Folks are shopping, temperature's dropping, big day's almost here.
This town is so welcoming.
It's a pretty special place.
Everyone knows you, wait.
Where I'm from, people barely look up from their phones, let alone talk to
you. It's a tight-knit community.
We all know each other's business.
Oh, so it's true what they say about this little town.
Yes, but it's also wonderful.
Once you settle and start to appreciate what's right in front of you, you can
stop looking for that next shiny thing.
I agree.
But I also like being on the move and finding that next shiny thing.
That's one of the reasons I got into photography in the first place.
Cool.
Look.
This is perfect.
It must be nice traveling, taking in all those new experiences.
I love it. I get to meet amazing people, swap fresh new ideas, and I'm actually
waiting to hear back about a full-time job in Paris.
Paris? Whoa.
I'd love to visit, but...
I couldn't imagine ever moving away for a long time.
For me, if I stay too long in one place, the shine kind of starts to wear off.
I'm not good at, like what you said, slowing down and appreciating what's
right in front of you.
Hey!
So nice to see you.
Hi.
She makes these out of broken ornaments.
Like Japanese kintsugi.
I guess that's what it's called.
Yes, in Japan, they mend broken items using liquid gold, making them even more
valuable. I thought last year when I photographed an art show in Tokoname,
the flaws are what makes each piece one of a kind.
I love that the imperfections are what make it special.
Life can be that way, too.
I've seen how we can lose so much and come back from almost anything.
Especially when you have the right people behind you.
People who see the cracks and still choose you.
Or love you even more because of them.
Maybe our flaws are the pieces waiting to be filled, and love is a special kind
of gold.
It's cool that you got to see that in Japan.
Even cooler that you have your own version here in Silver Pine, using
silver and gold.
Duty calls.
Feel free to keep exploring, and don't worry about getting lost. Between here
and the station, everyone knows where to find me.
I'm glad we were able to back up EMS on that one. Yeah, good call on that
alternate route.
Main Street got jammed up quick.
Every second counts on a call like that, right?
So, me and a couple of the guys, we're going to go out for some drinks. You
want to come with us?
Thanks, but I've got some work to catch up on with the fundraiser. Okay.
Just over a week to go until Christmas Eve, and we launched the donations page
today. Anything I can do to help?
I think I got it covered for now.
You deserve a break.
Says the person who works more than anyone?
Seriously, Reed, take a break.
Thanks, Tom.
Guys, let's go.
Have a good night, everybody.
You're not going to join them?
I want to finish up some work for the fundraiser.
Besides, I got to lead by example, don't I?
Well, leadership's not just about getting things done, Danny.
It's also about being part of a team.
And that sort of implies, you know, enjoying time together.
I will.
I am.
I just...
I want to make sure the fundraiser's a success.
Gotta show people they can count on me.
All right.
Well, just remember, there are people around you who can help.
Thanks, Dad.
Hey, sis.
Sorry we're late.
Don't ruin this for me. I'm at the park where everybody's about to start singing
together and her ex is about to... Oh.
Hey, um, make yourselves at home.
Nice PJs.
Thanks, yeah, they're kind of my thing this time of year. It's actually our
thing? Maybe I should get some Christmas PJs. Flannel looks cozy.
Well, you're much more of a cashmere and silk kind of girl, and the tradition
doesn't really work that way. Yeah, you're supposed to be gifted them on
Christmas Eve.
Although we could make an exception for you, unless you're fine with your
regular PJs. Yeah.
Really, come as you are, whatever makes you comfortable.
I usually wait until at least a third meeting before showing anyone my
Christmas PJs.
Well, maybe it's better to show them your true colors right away.
Yeah.
Danny, why don't you show Sasha to her room?
Right. Yes.
It's right this way here. I'll make this.
Sorry about the mess.
Haven't had guests in a while. I keep a room for my sister down the hall, and my
dad has his own place.
No, it's all good.
I'll try not to disturb your island of misfit ornaments.
Oh.
Yeah, I keep meaning to fix them, but I'm always working, so... It's Christmas
time. I get it. Who has the time?
Well, please don't mind the mess and make yourself at home.
Hey, actually, I posted online about the fundraiser, and people are asking about
you. And the puppy, of course.
Well, who can resist a puppy?
But let's be honest. We haven't had a fire this big in a while. So, of course,
people are talking. It's silver pine.
I get it.
But, you know, this is a holiday hero campaign, and you, Dani, are a hero.
No. No, the point of the fundraiser is to show that when it comes to giving,
anyone and everyone can be a hero.
Why don't we do some follow-up shots? You know, with you, Abigail the puppy.
You'll be really sweet.
I'm really more of a behind-the-scenes person.
But... Wow.
You're really good.
It's what I do.
I capture people's true essence without them even noticing.
And I think that showing the face behind a real holiday hero is a great angle.
And I promise you will have final approval before anything gets posted
online.
I get it now.
Why you and Jackie are besties.
You don't give up.
I'm also very hard to resist.
Confident, huh?
Oh, I've talked A-lectures into 5 a.m. shoots just to get the perfect shot.
Well, get some rest.
I'm working split tonight, so 5 a.m. doesn't sound me.
But I do need more on-camera experience.
Maybe I'll see you tomorrow after my shift?
I hope so.
And here's the crew in action.
Good work, everyone.
Just keeping up with demand.
People are stepping up. Yeah, looks like the social posts are really working.
I got all the guys at my gym to donate online.
Impressive.
Let's get to work.
Time to get a shot of dairy.
Camera
loves
you.
It's really good.
Okay, now that I've talked your ear off, what about you? It seems like you've
been obsessed with being a firefighter ever since high school.
Mind if I ask why?
Yeah, yeah. The hats. We got great hats.
Look, it's not that deep. It's just something that always stuck with me.
Come on. You can tell me.
Okay, so my grandmother shared this favorite cat that we bonded over named
Snowball. and I would visit all the time. And one winter, when I was
visiting, I opened up the front door, and the cat just shot out.
Oh, no. My cat makes a run for the door every time I open.
Mine, too.
Anyway, it climbed up to the highest maple tree in Grandma's front yard, no
thanks to me, and then an amazing team of firefighters showed up to rescue her.
And I promised myself right then and there that one day I would be like them.
That's adorable, Tom.
Yeah, it was last year.
What?
Kidding. I was seven.
Cute. Hey, look, what can I say? I just, I've always known what I wanted.
That was fun.
It was a nice way to balance out the harder days.
You have a natural way of leading.
This team really looks up to you.
I hope so.
I'm buying for a promotion, and it would be a lot easier if the rest of the team
were on board.
Well, everyone's already getting behind the fundraiser, and...
That's all thanks to you.
Thanks.
Also... You have an eyelash.
Make a wish.
I already did.
Okay, so we're making great progress with our donations, but we still have a
bit to go with our goal for repairs to the Lee's home, not to mention all the
other families who signed up.
Yeah, we still need to find a way to bring in bigger donations.
What else can we do?
What about a charity gift wrapping station at the Christmas market, just
like we used to with Mom and Dad?
It's the perfect venue to spread the word.
Exactly, all those last-minute Christmas shoppers.
After seeing some of Sasha's amazing photos, I was thinking...
What if we did a charity calendar?
We can feature the crew, give people something they can use all year round.
I just don't know if people are even buying calendars anymore.
I do.
Who doesn't love a sexy firefighter calendar? Yes, we have to.
That's not the kind of calendar I'm talking about. Well, I know one holiday
hero I wouldn't mind seeing in that calendar.
If you say Tom, I might have to disown you.
He's actually really fun. He used to be so dorky in high school.
He's like the brother I never wanted.
He's much sweeter than the guys Jackie usually does.
See? Sasha knows.
Anyway, we can promote the calendar at all the events and start taking online
pre-sale orders, and Sasha can start taking pics for socials, too.
Sorry, Sasha.
We keep adding to your pile.
That's okay. It's all part of my small-town holiday experience.
So when can we schedule the shoot for? Well, I'll need to get the chief to sign
off on the calendar, despite being on call for emergencies.
He doesn't love last-minute plans.
I'm sure Dad will go for it. What if we sold more Station Eleven merch?
Mugs, aprons, stockings?
I love the creativity, but I'm not sure we have time for all that.
We're collecting donations, wrapping presents, hopefully a firefighter
calendar. It's a lot this time of year.
I see your point. Maybe we don't have time for swag sales.
But a calendar is easy enough. We have to do it. Yeah, let's schedule it in.
We'll talk to the crew, see who wants to be a part of it. And Jackie, you can
arrange the props.
Sure. And we'll have themes for each month. What month do you want, Dani?
Yeah, maybe you can start and end the year, January and December.
Uh, there's no need for me to be in the actual calendar.
I'm logistics.
Better to let the team shine.
This could be the perfect media training we talked about. I think it would mean a
lot to the team to see their future fire captain let loose, put on a sexy Santa
hat and get silly. That would be good for morale.
Maybe, but we're not doing sexy.
Remember?
Anyway.
Start getting used to being front and center in that fire captain role.
I hear you.
But doing my job, helping people, it's where I've always felt my best.
What about the glory for me?
We get it, and everyone appreciates how much you do for this town. So let's just
have fun. It'll be good for the team to see you in a different way.
And I'll finally be able to photograph you. Local small town hero.
Wow.
You guys don't stop.
Let me sleep on it, okay?
Good night, ladies.
Good night.
Do you think she'll do it? I'm not sure. I just wish she saw herself the way
other people do.
Yeah. She's pretty amazing.
So, do you like her?
I mean, she's strong, inspiring, beautiful.
What's not to like?
Runs in the family. Okay.
Oh, hey.
I thought you were Jackie.
Nope, just me, with treats.
What's the occasion?
It's an official cookies and tea moment.
That's a thing?
I made it a thing.
I raided your pantry, and somebody really likes to bake.
Helped me unwind after a long shift, and the team loved my date squares, so...
Yeah.
Cozy room, by the way.
And the duvet.
Wow, is it down or microfiber?
Okay.
Seriously, what are you really doing here this late?
I just wanted to check in on you.
Make sure you're okay.
I know you have a lot on your plate, and the last thing you need is to feel like
we're ganging up on you.
Well, I'm used to Jackie bossing me around.
Bonus points for the cookies, though.
Mm-hmm.
We may have gotten carried away with your calendar idea, and I know that you
don't want to be a part of it, but leading by example goes a long way.
It'll definitely help with your promotion.
You are very persuasive.
You're almost as good as my sister.
Oh, no, I'm much better.
I mean, you're right.
The calendar is a great way to bring the team together.
Show my dad I'm ready to lead.
This fundraiser is becoming so much more.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
And now it's my turn to say goodnight.
Sweet dreams, Danny.
You too.
Get your gifts wrapped.
Holiday Heroes fundraiser. We accept and wrap donations of all sizes.
Got to give it to you, Danny. Another great idea for the cause. And you're in
luck because I'm amazing at wrapping presents.
Great. We need all the hands we can get. Well, anything for the community, right?
Thanks, Tom.
And hey, I'm going to talk to the chief about a charity calendar for the
fundraiser. You up for a photo shoot? I know you love the spotlight.
I do, so sign me up. And it's like you said, helping is the reward.
No donation is too big or small. Get your gifts wrapped.
Sister's a big help.
She's a lot more than that. She's the whole five-alarm chili.
Now you're talking my language.
Hey, uh, what about Sasha?
What about her?
Really?
Oh, excuse me.
Want to see?
Oh, I'd love to.
I was thinking this one of you and the crew would be perfect for the calendar.
I didn't even see you take that.
Wow.
It's like magic, all these moments.
I wonder what other moments are happening around us that we can't see.
So do you think the chief will go for the calendar?
I may have some pull.
Holiday heroes means a lot to him.
I think it's a beautiful way to honor your mother's memory.
I hope so.
I've also decided to be a part of it.
Lead by example, like you said.
Hopefully with your help. Of course.
I'm so glad. You'll be in good hands.
Um... I'm going to go check on Jackie.
Looks like the rapping station's a hit.
Though not as big a hit as you and Sasha.
Stop it.
She's gone after the holidays.
Not necessarily. She might be your person, Danny.
I'm not the one who's looking.
Besides, it would be a huge mistake to fall for someone who's not in it for the
long haul.
Do you remember Tara?
She bailed right before the academy. She said I was too intense.
That was a college crush.
Exactly. I am older now. I am wiser now. I gotta be with someone that gets me for
me.
Basha's a big city jet setter.
I'm a small town homebody who's always on the clock.
Give her a chance. She might surprise you and stop hiding behind the uniform.
You've built your whole life around work. Live a little. I love my job. And
the structure saves me when everything else feels like it's falling apart.
And with or without the promotion, my priority right now is the fundraiser.
Don't get me wrong. I am so proud of you.
But you're always working.
You deserve someone special in your life.
That could be Sasha.
Oh, you know we just met. Trust me. Me? I know her. Have I ever steered you
wrong? You literally pushed me down a hill in a shopping cart when we were
kids.
It was our magical play.
Okay, other than that, have I ever steered you wrong?
You're just always trying to steer.
I hope you haven't been setting us up this whole time.
No.
But a girl can dream.
You don't always know better.
Um, I think my track record speaks otherwise.
I just want to point out...
You have been flirting with Tom.
This is not about me.
You know I only want you to be happy.
I know, and I am so grateful for you.
All right, I'm going to go talk to Dad about the calendar. It seems like you've
got everything covered here. Sure, he should be handing out flyers outside.
Okay.
Howdy, heroes. Get your gifts wrapped. Yeah, there you go. How you doing?
No, you can get your gifts wrapped right inside there.
Howdy, heroes. Hey, Chief.
Thanks for spreading the word. Oh, my pleasure.
Folks are really excited about this fundraiser. I know. It's great.
And Sasha and Jackie have been such a big help.
I hear Sasha is quite the photographer.
Yeah.
She is something else.
I know that look.
I haven't seen it in a while, but you're happy.
I'm doing what I love, and it's the holidays, so of course I'm happy. It's
okay. It's what every parent wants, and you deserve it.
Speaking of photography, what about a Station Eleven calendar?
You up for it?
Not one of those racy ones, I hope. No, no, no. Just family-friendly photos
would be a great way to ramp up donations and give people a way to
remember the fundraiser.
I admire your drive, honey, but that seems like a lot to organize in a very
little time.
Oh, it'll be fine. I was also thinking about doing our own version of Photos
with Santa. We'll do a photo pop-up with the team. Okay, slow down. All great
ideas, but you're sure you can handle all that?
Yeah, of course.
It'll be a great way to boost crew morale.
You know, your mother had that skill.
Juggle a million things, make it look effortless.
She really did have a superpower.
I'd be very proud of you.
Well, tell you what, as long as we keep it fun, and you assure me this isn't too
much for you, then, um, yeah, I'm in.
Great. Thanks, Dad.
You won't regret it.
I have a favor to ask. How's your chief?
Of course.
Anything you need.
I was hoping that you could, uh, give the annual fire safety talk at
tomorrow's tree lighting ceremony.
You sure?
You always do the talk. Yes, I know, but if you're serious about this fire
captain role, it should be a good time to step up.
Well...
Okay. These are big shoes to fill, but I'll give it a shot.
You're more than ready for this. You'll be fine.
Thanks, Chief.
Holiday heroes, get your gifts wrapped.
You're back.
Nice to come home and not find the place empty for once. I know the feeling.
Sometimes it is way too quiet coming home to my condo.
What's the final verdict on the calendar?
It's a yes, but I promised the chief I'd keep it family friendly.
Oh, Jackie's going to be so disappointed.
Yeah, she will.
So I was thinking, what if we did a community photo day?
As long as you're down to shoot, of course. Yeah, I love that. It's a great
way to get people to come out.
Okay, so let's do the calendar in the morning and holiday photos in the
afternoon. Great.
Thank you. Yeah.
Okay.
Now I just got to prep a fire safety talk for tomorrow night's tree lighting.
Cool. Fire safety is your jam, right?
If I'm being honest, I'm feeling a little nervous.
Oh, there's nothing to be worried about.
I guess I'm just feeling the pressure to show I've got what it takes to be fire
captain. My dad usually gives the talk.
He's got this very commanding presence.
You have a very commanding presence.
Do you think so?
Being the chief's kid means we want to do better.
Plus, I need to prove I earn everything I get.
Well, I've seen you with the rest of the team.
You're a natural.
I don't know about that.
Whatever happens, just own it.
Well, I already said yes, so I guess I've committed.
Maybe I'll just practice in front of the mirror or something.
The truth is, we connect more when people aren't perfect.
Helps them feel more real.
Or you could just picture everyone in their underwear.
No, thanks.
But hey, thanks for the pep talk.
You always seem to know just what to say to make me feel better.
I'll leave you to it.
It's an honor to be here tonight on behalf of Station Eleven as we light up
everyone's Christmas spirit.
This holiday season, put fire safety first.
Prevention is very important.
Go read!
So you really need to think ahead so the holidays won't just go up in flames.
Well, what I mean by that is keep your real trees watered because dry needles
and Christmas lights, they don't mix.
As pretty as candles may be, don't leave them unattended. Unless you're planning
to toast more than chestnuts this year.
Please, make sure your smoke detectors are working so you don't end up with a
visit from us instead of Santa.
Remember, when it comes to keeping the holidays full of cheer and safety, we
can all be heroes.
Speaking of which, please support our Holiday Heroes fundraiser back this year
with a special edition charity calendar.
And join us at our holiday photo pop-up featuring our firefighters.
Your generosity goes a long way to bringing Christmas magic to families in
need. Thank you. And without further ado, I'd love to welcome up our
Honorable Mayor to Life is Beauty Up!
You look great.
Seeing you in the crowd really helps.
In my underwear?
Seriously.
It's been amazing having you here.
Three, two, one.
Merry Christmas!
Think it'll earn me a date with a special holiday hero?
Definitely dinner.
Maybe a date.
Well, lucky for you, I happen to be free for both.
Including the photo shoot on Friday.
Rain check on the dinner date.
I'll hold you to it.
Excellent work, Lieutenant.
Someone's gunning for fire captain.
I knew you'd be great, by the way.
Thanks, sis.
Solid job on the talk.
Looks like the competition for fire captains is heating up, so I'm going to
lock in some more donations with my fire extinguisher demo.
Care to join?
Yeah, I guess I could grab some content for socials. Are you two coming?
No, you two go ahead.
Okay. Have fun.
You're off to an early start?
Just checking the calendar pre-orders and all the buzz on social.
Honestly, I'm starting to get a feel for what a small-town holiday is going to be
like.
The crew's excited, too.
I'm glad the fundraiser's got people all fired up.
Cute. I see what you did there.
Speaking of cute, Tom and Jackie are adorable.
I guess.
I've never really seen Tom that way with someone before.
She seems happy.
I love that she goes for what she wants.
She's a lot like my mom that way. Spinning image of her, too.
Jackie always speaks so fondly of her.
You must miss her so much.
Yeah.
Especially during this time of year.
We lost her as teens, so it was pretty rough.
But Dad did an amazing job raising us.
We've always lent on each other to get through.
What about you?
What would make you happy?
Truthfully,
Holiday Heroes being a big success that keeps on going.
Also, the promotion.
But only if it's known that I earned it. Is there anything I can do to help?
Well, I wouldn't mind taking you up on your offer to... Oh, sorry. Hold that
thought.
I really need to... Good morning, sunshine.
Good sleep?
Beats being on call at the station.
How about you? How was Tom's fire extinguisher demo?
He was really good with the donors. I got lots of fun content for socials.
Um, where did Sasha go? We've got lots to prep for Friday's shoot.
She had to take a call.
Uh, seemed important.
Well, well. Look who suddenly cares.
Doesn't change that she's leaving right after Christmas.
No. Make use of the time you've got.
Mistletoe doesn't ask questions.
A holiday fling? It's fun when you're in your 20s, but it'd be nice to have
something real for a change.
Everything okay?
Uh, yeah.
Yeah. That was the Paris agency.
And? And before they finalize the offer, they want to fly me out for one last
interview. Oh.
What? I thought it was yours.
I did too, but I guess they need to meet me in person first.
When's the interview?
In two days. On the 23rd, before they close on Christmas Eve. Friday.
That's our photo shoot.
I know.
I'm so sorry.
No, this should be exciting for you. Don't be sorry.
Are you sure you can't go after Christmas?
Unfortunately, I can't. I have been chasing this senior agency role for
ages, and I can't give up now.
Of course not.
Well, we should celebrate early Christmas while we still have you.
You sure?
I wouldn't be imposing on your sisterly traditions?
No. We would love it with my nanny. Yeah, Christmas Eve, PJ party.
It'll be great. An authentic small-town Christmas experience.
Plus, I actually got you a little something.
But now I should probably run.
I'll catch up with you guys later.
Okay, here we go, here we go.
Oh, from twinning to twinning. I love our Christmas PJ tradition.
I do kind of love this look.
Thank you.
Nothing like Christmas PJs to get you into the spirit.
So, what did I miss?
Okay. He didn't tell her about his ex, and now she won't talk to him because
the ex came back and is trying to buy her bakery.
What, so there's one miscommunication and it's all over?
Oh, no. They definitely still end up together at the end. They always do. So,
if you already know how it ends, why are we even watching?
Because it's about enjoying the journey, not just the destination.
It's the predictable payoff that we look forward to.
And you're sure it's worth it?
Of course.
It's a Christmas tradition.
Right. Yeah, of course. I'm just still getting used to all this.
Whew, it is getting late.
Sorry to cut the party short, but I have to go.
What? Where are you going at this hour?
Last minute surprise.
You know what? I think I can guess. Actually, don't tell me. I don't even
want to know.
Great, I'll fill you in later.
I'll also remind you that early Christmas was your idea.
At least wait until the end of the movie.
I've seen this one a hundred times. You two enjoy, but save me some dessert.
Bye!
Are you on call tonight, or do I get you all to myself?
Holiday rotating shit.
So I'm off tonight.
How do you even handle shift work?
I'm used to it by now.
24 hours straight on, followed by 48 hours off.
But because it's the holidays, we're rotating every 12 hours, so the crew can
spend more time with family.
Sounds intense.
Yeah, I've heard that one before.
Doesn't make relationships easy.
Yeah, I can relate.
Not that I'm saving lives or anything like that, but I am always on call for
some kind of emergency with a deadline. One minute I'm editing backstage, the
next I'm chasing a starlet on the carpet.
The missed birthdays and apology texts don't help, though.
Yeah.
But hey, if you can find someone who gets it, you're lucky.
Yeah.
So, when does your new job start?
It's supposed to be in the new year.
They asked me if I had any attachments and if I could start right away.
Oh. Well, that's the perks of being single, right?
No complicated baggage.
Just an open calendar and a taste for the finer things.
Yeah, lucky me.
But I have really been enjoying my small-town holiday.
Especially the company.
I'm glad Jackie invited you.
Me too.
I did make you something.
What? You didn't have to do that. Just a little way to say thank you for letting
me stay here and for the pajamas, of course.
Aw. I thought they needed a little bit more time, but I think they're good.
It's just gold-colored glue, but I hope that you get the idea.
You fixed my misfit ornaments.
No one's ever made me a gift before.
Except Jackie. She briefly went through this knitting phase and she made a lot
of scars. I remember that.
Well, being at the tree lighting ceremony, it reminded me of how much I
used to love Christmas decorating.
It's been ages.
Oh, well, let's put these on.
Okay.
They're even better than they were before.
I'm so glad you love them.
I'll think of you every time I take them out for the holidays.
I was so looking forward to spending the holidays with you.
Let's not talk about it tonight.
I'm sorry, I just feel so bad.
I know Jackie has a lot of contacts, and I'm sure she can bring someone else in.
I'm sure she can.
But it won't be the same without you.
How about...
We do a private photo session. Just the two of us help you get ready for the
calendar. You sure?
Yeah, and didn't Jackie say that you needed more media training for your
promotion? So we can help you find all of your angles, get comfortable.
Comfier than Christmas PJs? Almost.
Tonight can be our studio.
You know, studies say that if you flip stress into excitement, your body won't
even know the difference.
Same energy, same racing heart.
It's all about how you frame it.
Explains why I take on the pressure.
Just lean back, look straight into the lens, and smile.
You're a natural.
Now, tell me something that you wouldn't normally share with a lot of people.
Like what?
Whatever comes to mind.
Just focus on me.
Camera's not even here.
Have you ever heard of reading the smoke?
I'm guessing it's a firefighter thing.
We're taught to read the smoke.
Focus on me.
Remember?
Smoke tells us about the type of fire we're most likely to encounter.
Like a prediction?
Kind of, but maybe I've started spending too much time trying to read people the
same way I read the smoke.
It can be easier to read signs than feeling sometimes.
Yeah. I spend my time scanning a situation or someone for warning signs
and keep my distance.
Avoid getting too close.
What happens if you get too close?
I stop myself.
I keep reading the smoke to avoid the fire.
What if you get closer?
Then I worry I might get hurt.
I get that.
I often wonder if the reason that I keep moving and...
I can never settle in one place so that I keep my distance.
Why don't you join me over here?
On the other side of the camera for a change.
What does my smoke say?
Are... Are you going to check that?
No. Get it later.
Light reminder.
Actually, that's a good reminder.
I'm looking for a safe.
I can't.
Not right now.
I thought you were leaving today.
I'm taking the red-eye tonight.
Interview's tomorrow.
So, what are you doing here?
Well, Jackie talked to your dad about moving up the calendar shoot, and the
crew are all available, so... Really?
Yeah. That's great.
I didn't want to leave without finishing it.
Well, thanks.
Well, also, we were able to find a replacement photographer for the holiday
shoot. Oh, that's fast.
Who? Well, it turns out Candace Lee, Abigail's mom, is a trained
photographer. Really?
Yeah, she's been doing it part-time while raising her kids, and she can't
think of a better way to thank Station Eleven for sponsoring her family during
Christmas. Oh, that's amazing.
Well, thanks to you.
You salvaged her trunk of camera equipment during the fire, and she just
wants to pay it forward.
Wow.
Well, thank you so much for being here today.
You don't need to thank me.
At least I can do for the change of plans.
Oh.
So listen, about last night.
What about it?
We both have commitments.
Better not to complicate things.
Fair.
But we should talk.
I'm not sure there's much to say.
We should focus on the fundraiser.
That's what matters right now.
What about us?
I think you're amazing.
But... Seems like we're headed in a different direction.
Fine, yeah.
You're probably right.
Look... No matter what happens, I just... I want you to know how much I
appreciate you helping with this, okay?
Who's ready to be one of Santa's little elves?
Where were you last night?
Oh, you know, on a hot date with a hot someone.
Don't commit that blame. Sounds like a fire hazard.
Don't tell Danny, Kay.
Why not? We can all see you're into Tom.
Normally I have no secrets with her, but this feels different, and I want to make
sure that it's real first.
I'm curious.
Maybe. I hope.
Okay, well, then Danny won't be happy for you.
I think she thinks he's an acquired taste.
I think it matters what you think.
What about you? Did you have a chance to talk to her?
Not really.
We just talked about helping out with the calendar and reaching out to
Candace. But until I know what's happening in France, there's not much to
say, unfortunately.
So do you have a new start date?
I'm not sure. I'll know more if I get it. You mean when you get it.
Sad you have to cut your holiday short. I know. I was really looking forward to
spending Christmas here.
Me too. And so was my sister.
You two clicked the moment you met.
I think you've been watching too many rom-coms.
No, especially.
Since when do you know how to set up studio lights?
Sasha taught me. I helped her take them down last night.
Sounds like you two had fun without me.
Sure. And?
Anything else I missed?
No, that's it.
I was hoping you two... Just because you're my big sister, it doesn't mean
you're always right.
We both knew she was leaving.
Hey. Hey. Oh, uh, Mr. December's ready for his close-up.
Keep out of here.
Don't act like I didn't see that.
Okay. I gotta move the truck. Okay.
Let's rev her up.
Okay, we have three hours to shoot this calendar.
We'll take rotating shifts so that we always have someone on active duty.
Responding vehicle will be on standby outside.
But first...
A huge shout-out to our mega-talented photographer, Sasha, my amazing sister,
Jackie, and the one and only Chief Reed.
Of course, none of this would have been possible without each and every one of
you. Here, here.
Okay, so we have a seasonally appropriate assortment of festive props
and outfits, so sign up for your favorite months, and let's have fun. I
got dibs on Santa.
Father, daughter, happy new year.
Great job.
Cheers.
Beautiful.
Got it. Next.
Hey,
that was good.
Great job.
Next.
Have you guys done this before?
That's fun.
Beautiful, yes.
Look incredible.
Yes.
Getting a lumberjack clean.
The wrench got us.
The therapy.
Beautiful. Big smile.
Gorgeous.
how much fun today was. Right? We got so many amazing photos. I'm just putting
the final touches on the layout.
We really can't thank you enough for this, Asha. It's my pleasure.
And the digital download will be available online before I leave for my
flight tonight.
I couldn't have done this without you.
You deserve some credit, too.
Today made me realize why I started doing this in the first place.
How photography can make unexpected moments come to life.
What are you thinking here?
I wasn't really thinking, just feeling.
Pure joy.
No getting lost in the smoke, just going for it.
Hey, I know that you don't want to talk about it, but whatever this is, I think
we should stay in touch, see where it goes, you know?
No.
I'm sorry.
I can't.
Why not?
Because I'm not up for apology texts after missed video chats or wrong time
zone mix-ups. I can't do long distances.
But I thought you felt a spark here. I do.
When I let someone in, I'm all in.
I get it.
You do.
This is usually where all my relationships end.
You are incredible.
And I wish that I could give you a forever place to come home to.
But I'm always on the go.
I don't see that changing.
I understand.
I'm sorry. I've got to take this. Do what you have to do.
Getting late.
You should go.
Like you said, if you stay too long in one place, the shine wears off or
something like that.
I guess I did say that.
What? But... But I'll make sure that I leave extra copies of the
photos in case you need them.
Sure.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Don't let me keep you.
Safe travels, Sasha.
Good luck, Danny.
Talk about a long day. How are you doing?
Tired.
But good.
You're incredible.
Um, so I hear that Tom is staying at the station tonight.
Sounds like someone suddenly cares.
I'm sorry, Danny. I've been seeing Tom. I know.
And you're lucky. I just saved Tom from getting Dad's famous third degree.
Dad knows?
You've always been good at hiding things, but Tom, not so much.
You're right. He's kind of a chatty Cathy.
Yeah. Oh, but he's also super cute.
I should have told you sooner. I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
Excuse me? I missed that. Could you repeat that last part for me?
Oh, don't get too used to that.
I'm happy for you two.
He's a good guy.
Thank you.
So does this mean I'll be seeing you more often? Maybe you could work
remotely. I'm not sure. Things seem to be happening fast. Much like you and
Sasha. Did you two talk?
We did.
And, you know, wrong place, wrong time.
I need something that can last.
I think you also need some tea.
I'm really, really pleased.
Thank you so much for coming. You being here today, it makes it so special for
all of us. We're so grateful. There's no way we'd miss it.
And when I heard you needed a photographer, I was more than thrilled
to help. Well, to be honest, you saved the day.
Can I get a picture with you later?
Yes, please.
Great. I will come find you.
I'll go set up.
Thanks.
Welcome, everyone.
Thank you so much for being a part of our special community photo day with our
chief and crew.
Look who came to visit us, everyone.
Ho, ho, ho. Merry Christmas, friends and family.
Nice of you to join us, Santa. Thanks for lending a hand.
Oh, fire, Captain Santa. Wouldn't miss it for the world.
Have you been Christmas here?
Ho, ho, ho.
Looks great. Can I have one with Jessie, please? Of course!
I want to become a firefighter when I grow up. Aww.
We've all seen the donation boxes around town and the Holiday Heroes photos on
social, but now more good news. The Station 11 calendar officially drops
today. That's right. So grab your calendar and help support Holiday Hero
families all year long.
You know, none of this would have been possible if it wasn't for the incredible
drive of Lieutenant Danny Reed.
Oh, Lieutenant Reed, is Holiday Heroes the success you were hoping for?
It's an honor to serve and a real testament to the residents who always
embrace the spirit of giving back.
So please keep those orders and donations coming for families in need.
And thank you.
And remember, smoke alarms save lives.
Spoken like a true holiday hero.
Back to you with the weather, Greg.
And we're out.
I'm really looking forward to buying one of your calendars. Thanks. I hear Mr.
December is quite popular.
Just this way, please.
Press like a pro in all the calendar buns?
Thanks. Seems like Firefighter Santa's pretty popular, too, huh?
So, could there be a Mrs. Claus in your future?
Who knows?
But maybe someday.
I heard that Sasha left last night.
You okay?
Yeah.
I'm fine.
You sure?
Can't be easy if you feel like it could be something more.
Who am I kidding?
I know we just met, but I have never felt this way about anyone before.
I think I messed up.
Oh, I pushed her away.
Maybe it's not too late.
I think it might be.
Hey, Chief, just checking in. You good?
Yeah, I'm good. How are you holding up, kiddo? You know, it's been a whirlwind.
Well, maybe you need some time off, huh?
You offering?
I'm serious.
We don't put our lives on the line every day around here, but you, your
commitment to this town is above and beyond.
Thanks, Dad.
You know, that means a lot coming from you.
Watching you and Jackie work together, I couldn't be more proud.
We'll always be grateful for your big shoulders.
You raised this right.
And you and your team.
What you raised, well, it's nothing short of remarkable.
We're getting pretty close to our goal. Enough for repairs for the Lee's home
and a lot more to come from calendar orders.
Oh, and I also noticed you've been getting more and more comfortable with
the press, haven't you?
I'm trying.
So any more thoughts on the promotion?
Does this mean you're ready to be fire captain?
Ready and able, sir.
Mm-hmm.
But I know Tom's interested, too.
Well, that's awfully nice of you to think of the competition.
I just want it to go to the right person.
And I know it might not be me.
Well, good news there.
I'm no longer the one who's making the decision.
So you don't have to worry about any bias. The district chief will make the
decision before he retires.
That is great.
Thanks, Ted.
Um, oh, tell your sister I wasn't born yesterday.
What do you mean?
Actually, you know what? Maybe I'll tell her myself.
Falling for a fireman, just like your mother, warms the heart, doesn't it?
Some places speak to the heart. Home is where we leave a piece of ourselves and
take a piece of it wherever we go.
Travel safe, Dani.
Hey. Great job showing up as Firefighter Santa. The kids loved you. Yeah, we got
to do that again next year.
You were in almost every holiday photo.
Not to mention bringing the calendar heat as Station 11's Mr. December. Thank
you very much.
It's a brilliant move.
Actually, it was Jackie's idea. Aha.
I figured.
Yeah, she's incredible.
You getting soft on me or is this you buttering me up for approval?
You know you've already won if you've got her falling for you.
You know this job gets in your blood, but Jackie, she makes me want to do even
better.
I can see why she thinks you're a sweetheart.
She does.
I know things can change on a dime around here, but I can really see us
building a life together.
I know I give you a hard time, Tom, but you're already like family to me, and I
can see how happy you make her.
You know why?
I see that same look in your eyes with Sasha.
How are you handling her leaving?
I'm fine.
We just met.
I always knew she had to go.
Danny, you show up for everyone, every day.
Maybe it's time to show up for yourself.
Tell her how you really feel.
Sasha, I got your message, and you always seem to know what to say, unlike
me.
I made a mistake telling you to go.
I think that you are the gold inside that shines and makes me feel whole.
I've never felt this way about anyone before.
And I think you're amazing.
So, even though we're going to be oceans apart, I'm willing to try and see how
things could go.
If you are. This mailbox is full.
I think you're amazing, too.
I was just on my way back.
But... But what about Paris?
I never made it to Paris.
But what about... I got the job.
And I told my new agency that I can start in the new year, but I've got to
spend Christmas with a special VIP.
Who's the VIP?
Oh, just a small-town girl who I really, really care about.
That's incredible.
You are incredible.
And I'm going to use up all my vacation days to come visit you.
And we're going to find a way to make long distance.
work well the truth is they really respected how much i value spending time
with loved ones so they offered me a remote position and i'll be splitting my
time between here and paris it's amazing
you and your powers of persuasion you know me how's your
promotion i think we'll know more in the new year but it's looking good and more
importantly
I realize that things don't always have to be perfect in order to be worthwhile.
I'm flying out after the holidays, and I'd love to RSVP a platform.
Yes.
Yes. And yes again.
Spending time with you this Christmas has made me appreciate that home isn't a
place.
It's a feeling.
And Danny, I love the way that I feel when I'm with you.
Merry Christmas, Danny.
Merry Christmas.
