1
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,840
We're there live
from the annual Christmas light festival

2
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:35,200
-in the magical town of Cookie Jar,
this is simply rich in Christmas items.

3
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,720
The city is home to the famous
Aunt Sally's Christmas Cookies.

4
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:44,280
You may remember the glory,
sweet treats from your childhood.

5
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,200
We stand here with you
some old residents.

6
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,720
Lighting the tree is something special
in the cookie jar.

7
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:00,240
Yes. When the tree lights up,
starts our Christmas season.

8
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,600
-And you're all out of the cookie jar?
-Born and raised.

9
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,080
That's what makes it a city.
Nobody wants to leave here.

10
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,000
It's probably the best place in the world.
Hello mommy!

11
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,040
My parents brought me here
every Christmas. I never wanted to leave here.

12
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,960
That's what this is about.
Christmas is celebrated here

13
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,520
-and then they get memories for life.

14
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:24,320
Reminiscent of Aunt Sally's famous one
Christmas cookies and the tree in the middle.

15
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,520
Yes, yes, that's a bit of a cliché.

16
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,040
A horse-drawn carriage ride in Central Park
with snow. But!

17
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,160
I mean, look.
I mean, it's... what's going on?

18
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,280
Nothing big. I would
I just wish I had my gloves.

19
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:03,560
Come here, Gavin. Put your hands
under the carpet. One like this. Problem solved.

20
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,160
I know you don't think so
It's romantic, okay? I know.

21
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:14,240
- But it's important to me.
-We're sorry. It wasn't fair of me.

22
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,120
I'm probably more traditional.
Company dinners, nice companies.

23
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,360
Great parties.
You love her.

24
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,560
Sometimes it's beautiful
Have fun without work.

25
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaking of parties:
My annual Christmas party is approaching.

26
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,560
I really hope you can show up.

27
00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:35,760
So I can talk about Christmas,
if I don't want to talk about Christmas?

28
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:41,520
Hanna, this is very important to me.
Just like this journey is for you.

29
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,120
-Nice try, Gavin.
-You'll love it. Just wait and see.

30
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:04,360
-I'm here. Where are you?
-I'm here. Sorry for the delay.

31
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,520
- It really started to snow.
-It's cold.

32
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,840
-And the horse-drawn carriage ride?
-Yes!

33
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,560
- So he finally came with us?
-Thank you.

34
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,720
What? It was good enough...

35
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,560
Until he started talking
about his Christmas party.

36
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:27,960
-The pussy-fine hall eye?
- I said that too.

37
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:33,840
You hated it last year. But you sat
in the horse-drawn carriage. And it was beautiful.

38
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:37,800
It was romantic.
Maybe he'll ask soon.

39
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,880
What? What do you say?
I am not ready for marriage at all.

40
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,760
He's a catch.
Catch him before it's too late.

41
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,120
I get relationship advice
my little sister-

42
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,160
-By the way, who is currently single?

43
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,840
Hannah, isn't this your company?

44
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,760
<i>And now it seems</i>
<i>that the family business becomes global.</i>

45
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,160
<i>We have just received confirmation,</i>
<i>that National Foods makes an offer...</i>

46
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,000
<i>-...at the small cookie company.</i>
- Wow!

47
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,480
Aunt Sally's cookies
is simply the best in the world.

48
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,560
Did you see the cookie jar on the news?

49
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,440
-No. I missed that.
- This city is still so cute!

50
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,440
You didn't say you were buying them out?

51
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,280
- I had never heard of it.
- This should be your deal.

52
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,240
- I should tell the boss.
-But you don't because...

53
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,960
Because I can't just wade in
and say, I want the customer.

54
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,000
It's not like that.
And then I go into the cookie jar.

55
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,920
So what? We were there every Christmas
when we were young. We loved it!

56
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,920
- We did that well enough.
-Crazy! Do you remember that?

57
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,720
We always had filled cookies
in our pockets-

58
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,520
- so we had no room for clothes!
We thought we had the whole year.

59
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:50,040
Yes! They lasted a week.
We ate them so quickly.

60
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,880
-Yes. But a lot has happened since then.
-A Grinch, ladies and gentlemen!

61
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:02,240
No, not at all! I just have more
to take care of than Aunt Sally's, or...

62
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,480
- I have to run.
-Wait! Just listen to me:

63
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,480
We could go to the cookie jar for Christmas
just the two of us. It could be so much fun.

64
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:14,160
- I have to think about it.
-Yes!

65
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,200
Good luck with the suggestion,
if we don't see each other.

66
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:24,360
- I know you're afraid of your boss.
-Thanks for that, Kelly. I love you.

67
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,920
This is what sets us apart from the others
not only-

68
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,400
- by selling chocolate milk
in old-fashioned, reusable glass...

69
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:44,040
...which is no longer unique.
The content is unique.

70
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:49,640
We have our darkness, our light...

71
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,720
...and we have white chocolate.

72
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,800
So if Mr. Thurber
gives us the green light

73
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,200
- We have to be ready
to move as quickly as possible.

74
00:06:00,280 --> 00:06:03,120
We need to have them ready by Easter.
Can we do it?

75
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,000
- Hannah? Mister. Thurber wants to see you.
-OK. Am I messing up the calendar?

76
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:13,880
-No. But he wants to see you now.
-OK. OK.

77
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,120
Then I'll be back. Hopefully.

78
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,360
-A meeting?
-He didn't say anything...

79
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,080
-...but he's in crisis mode.
- Crisis mode?

80
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:28,040
Don't worry, Hannah, he did
Lunch so he doesn't bite.

81
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:43,520
Sir, should I submit the application?
til today? We can do this.

82
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,720
Are you ready for the big stage?
Ms. Harper?

83
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,960
Yes definitely.

84
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:57,920
Hopefully. For national foods
buys Aunt Sally's Christmas cookies.

85
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,280
It is a very important agreement for us.
It will open up a whole new market.

86
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:09,600
So my question to you is:
Can you get the deal in house?

87
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,720
Certainly, sir, yes!
Yes, I can get the deal!

88
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:22,800
It was Dan Wilcox's deal,
until he ran to the competitor.

89
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,520
Wilcox contacted the interim
Director at Aunt Sally's

90
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:31,680
-after Sally Carter died,
and he was very receptive.

91
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,440
-Excuse me... Who is he?
- Aunt Sally's nephew.

92
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,800
His name is Jake Carter,
Lawyer in New York.

93
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:42,400
When he inherited the company,
he walked over to Cookie Jar and took over.

94
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,240
The company is nervous
of bankruptcy. Have you seen the numbers?

95
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,600
That's how it is when you
produces only half of the year.

96
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,000
If we want to prevent Wilcox
Grab us the deal

97
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:58,240
- We can't pull it anymore
than at Christmas.

98
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,560
You must not be distracted
the Christmas season.

99
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,240
I'm not a fan of Christmas. No worries.

100
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,840
Fine! Get Mr. Carter's signature,
so we can look at the details

101
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:13,520
-e.g. B. Relocation of production
to Buffalo. Carry on.

102
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,520
-Jane?
-Your limo is waiting, sir.

103
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,760
-Buffalo?
- Yes, there is a little of itself.

104
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,800
It's easier and cheaper
Moving things to and from Buffalo

105
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,240
-than in a small town,
that's barely on the map.

106
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:29,240
I want these cookies in everyone
Only year-round supermarket in the USA.

107
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:35,800
With all due respect, sir, that's not it
Part of Aunt Sally's charm-

108
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,040
-that the company is small, and the cookies
only available in a few places...

109
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,320
-...and only until Christmas? Not?
-That's right, Miss Harper.

110
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,080
You know, shops like this,
they can make or break careers.

111
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,080
- "Create or destroy?"
-OK. Just forget I mentioned it.

112
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:51,880
Go to the cookie jar and make the deal.

113
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,640
When you come back, we'll talk
about your future at National Foods.

114
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,720
OK. In order. Thank you...

115
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,480
I'll tell you something,
nobody told me.

116
00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:06,400
You have to be passionate.
That's the secret.

117
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,760
Find that passion, Miss Harper.

118
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,520
I have passion.

119
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:18,400
"Create or destroy."

120
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,400
Thank you.

121
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,840
- You are Ed. Miss Hannah Harper?
-Yes.

122
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,720
I am your taxi.

123
00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:07,720
You're late,
because my train was on time.

124
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,000
Oh yes. We're sorry. There's a lot of traffic here
at this time of year.

125
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:16,160
Cookie jar traffic?

126
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,200
-Like that.
-Thank you very much.

127
00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:32,800
You know, it's a really beautiful journey.
You can't miss it.

128
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,960
Would you like to end your call?

129
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,280
It's the office, and her
would like to be continually updated, so...

130
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,840
-It makes sense.
- Oh it's...

131
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,280
Sorry, I'm just...
I'm just freezing.

132
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,360
OK.

133
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,680
Would you like to make it a little quieter?
for the music?

134
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:11,240
- Don't you like Christmas music?
- It's not my favorite.

135
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:15,840
-Is this your first visit?
-No.

136
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,760
I came here as a child.
The whole “Christmas cookie thing.”

137
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,080
It's good that you're here.
Aunt Sally's could be gone next year.

138
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,880
So what?

139
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,840
Rumor has it it's a big company
buys the factory.

140
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,800
-Really?
-Yes.

141
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,680
- The gingerbread house?
-Oh! With seat belt fastened.

142
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:05,600
- You must enjoy your stay.
- Thanks, Ed.

143
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:13,760
-Hi!
-Hi. Ed always waves goodbye.

144
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,680
-He's cute, isn't he?
-Yes, he's cute.

145
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,480
Well, you just came in.
I'll hold the door for you.

146
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,680
Thank you.

147
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,680
-Was it a good trip?
-That's it. Wow!

148
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:33,160
-Welcome to the Gingerbread Inn.
- It's exactly as I remember it.

149
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,400
-You've been here before?
-Yes, when I was a little girl.

150
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,920
-The cookies are just...
-Right there.

151
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,640
Right there! Yes, you are!

152
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,320
They are that good.
Sorry, how rude of me.

153
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,960
I'm Hannah Harper
from National Foods.

154
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,080
You are expected. My name is Betty.

155
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,600
Betty, you can call me Hannah.
Do I have to register?

156
00:12:57,680 --> 00:13:01,120
No no. This is under control.
Your company has everything sorted.

157
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:07,080
And you have to live in the Peppermint Room
straight up the stairs.

158
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,560
OK.

159
00:13:14,680 --> 00:13:19,280
I've heard the rumors.
About Aunt Sally's?

160
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:27,240
You're the second person today who doesn't do that
seems pretty excited about it.

161
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,480
The cookie jar belongs to Aunt Sally. The little one
Business means everything to this city.

162
00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:37,560
This is our Christmas tradition.
But don't worry about it.

163
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,120
Things change.
Let me know if you miss anything.

164
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,160
Of course. Thank you, Betti.

165
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,680
It just had to be at the top.

166
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,200
My own Christmas tree.

167
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,600
How nice.

168
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,240
-Hello Hanna. Did you sleep well?
-Sure, Betty.

169
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,280
-Is your room nice enough?
-Yes. Everything is perfect. Thank you.

170
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,600
But I'm a little hungry.
Can I eat somewhere?

171
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,160
Specific.

172
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,120
-Hello Herbert!
-Merry Christmas, Betty!

173
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,000
-Oh, and you too, miss.
-Herbert, Hannah Harper.

174
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,760
-She works for National Foods.
-A pleasure.

175
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:03,040
National foods?
Well, welcome to the cookie jar.

176
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,600
Thank you.

177
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,680
Would you like to see how the tree is decorated?
Morning?

178
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,520
- I never miss that.
- See you there!

179
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,280
He seems really nice.

180
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,960
-How about this restaurant?
-Oh yes.

181
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,880
If I were you,
I took the Cookie Cutter Cafe.

182
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,240
Tell Sam that Betty sent you,
then you get a discount.

183
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,280
-Okay, deal. Thank you, Betti.
- It was a shame that there was so little.

184
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:31,600
It's down the street and on the left
past the community center.

185
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:03,120
-Sam will be here soon.
-Sir, what would it be?

186
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:11,320
Yes, Gavin. Not so worried now. I
I'll finish tomorrow and be home.

187
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,840
I won't miss your Christmas party.
I promise.

188
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:22,480
Stop. Listen, I have to run.
OK, OK. Goodbye.

189
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,280
We're sorry. Anything else?
Maybe a piece of pumpkin pie?

190
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:31,760
Oh, that sounds delicious.
But just the bill, Brooke?

191
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,160
-Yes. And your name?
- My name is Hannah.

192
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,920
-Hello Hanna. A pleasure.
-You too.

193
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,040
-Hey, Brooke!
-Hi! What are you doing here?

194
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,200
Mom said I could say hello!
We are Christmas shopping.

195
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,760
-It sounds fun!
-Bonnie, this is Hannah.

196
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,480
-Bonnie is my little sister.
- Hello Bonnie.

197
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,280
-Hi! You are beautiful!
-Oh, not as pretty as you.

198
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,400
- I have to run. Goodbye!
- See you for dinner.

199
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:56,960
-Hi.
-Hi.

200
00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,000
-Please. No rush.
-Thank you.

201
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,200
-Hi.
-Hi!

202
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,760
- Does it matter if I settle down?
-Yes.

203
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,080
No! No, it doesn't matter.
Finally sit down.

204
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,400
-Your food away from home is almost ready!
- Thanks, Sam. Wonderful.

205
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,520
-So, are you in a hurry to get a taxi?
-Yes. In a way.

206
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,200
- Have you always lived in a cookie jar?
-Born and raised.

207
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,120
I moved once
but since I came back-

208
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,760
- I have no intentions
about living somewhere else.

209
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,600
We don't see many
Business travelers. Are you selling something?

210
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:49,520
No. I actually have a meeting
the cookie factory with a Jake Carter.

211
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,840
-Do you know him?
-Yes. Everyone knows Jake.

212
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,920
-How is he?
-Well, he's a tough nut to crack.

213
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,560
-But also pretty charming, you know.
-Charming? Really?

214
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,800
People seem to think that way.
Are you enjoying your stay?

215
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,200
-Yes, Betty takes care of me.
-I think so.

216
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,560
-Here's your food.
- Thanks, Brooke.

217
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,040
And congratulations by the way! Princeton?
Large!

218
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:18,240
Yes, I'm so excited.
I'm studying to be a doctor.

219
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,360
- Wow! Where would you like to practice? Here?
-Yes. It's my home.

220
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:26,080
-And doctors can always be needed.
- Keep the rest. College is expensive.

221
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:30,040
-Oh thank you. Have a good day.
- It was nice to see you again.

222
00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:33,680
OK. I find
It was nice to see you too, Ed.

223
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:47,720
Yes, that's exactly how I remember it
that. They stop feeding you with them.

224
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,880
If I don't get away soon,
Soon there will be no more cookies.

225
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,360
- Because then I ate them all.
-You sound almost happy?

226
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,520
Glad? Now I don't know exactly.
It's Christmas everywhere here.

227
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,040
give it a chance
then you will enjoy it.

228
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:05,960
By the way: When you get back,
shouldn't we bake?

229
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,320
Kelly! I'll probably get a lot of cookies
before that.

230
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:14,480
Come on. Like in old times.
Maybe I can find Mom's old recipe.

231
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:19,120
Okay, on one condition: you pass
this time more with the flour.

232
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,320
OK! Yes. But promise me you won't
drop it...

233
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,640
-...because you had enough of Christmas.
-I promise.

234
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,960
OK. And now for the important part:
Your decision?

235
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,720
-What decision?
- Gavin's party? What are you wearing there?

236
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:38,440
-No idea. Does it mean something?
- Yes, the man will show you.

237
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,120
It doesn't matter if you enjoy it.

238
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,560
Again:
I'm going home from Christmas town-

239
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,800
- Bake Christmas cookies
and go to a Christmas party.

240
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,240
Anyone who doesn't like Christmas
it's very Christmassy.

241
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,760
Christmas can actually be quite fun
Hannah.

242
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,960
-Oh, the cafe is closing. I have to run.
-OK.

243
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,440
-Merry Christmas!
-Merry Christmas.

244
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,160
-Hello Hanna.
-Oh hello.

245
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,240
I just wanted a piece of cake.
Do you want?

246
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,720
Oh, no thanks. I think I have
had enough sweets for today.

247
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,240
- But if you want company...
- I would like some company.

248
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:21,160
-Is it Aunt Sally's cake?
- Aunt Sally doesn't make cakes.

249
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,760
No that
is my late husband's recipe.

250
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,120
-Really?
-Yes. He used to run the inn.

251
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,920
He made the desserts,
when I worked in the flavor factory.

252
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,360
-You worked for Aunt Sally?
-Yes.

253
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,440
Almost everyone in town did this
at some point.

254
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,000
Come on, take the cake.

255
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,440
Every Christmas Sally bought a present
to every child in the cookie jar

256
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,440
-and put them under the tree in the square.

257
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,400
-That sounds nice.
-That's it. It was real.

258
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:02,480
What's wrong with you, Hannah?
What is your favorite Christmas memory?

259
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:08,200
Oh, Christmas. I haven't really
a favorite Christmas memory.

260
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,240
-Really?
-No.

261
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,520
-I regret.
-It's okay. It's okay.

262
00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:16,560
I have a meeting
with a Jake Carter tomorrow.

263
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:21,120
And I know that you know everything about him,
So take care of yourself. Tell me everything.

264
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:27,040
He looks a lot like his aunt.
He's nice. Credible. Understanding.

265
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,880
And if you think that Ed is cute,
So wait until you see Jake.

266
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,880
-What's new, Miss Harper?
-I have a meeting with Mr. Carter, sir.

267
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,760
Fine. And remember,
that we have all the cards.

268
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,840
His company is on thin ice,
and it creaks.

269
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,200
He must understand that we
is his only hope. Are you there?

270
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:50,760
Yes indeed.

271
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,560
-Good morning.
-Hi! Good morning

272
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,760
-Ed's taxi. Oath to serve.
-Thank you.

273
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,720
Sorry, I didn't pick you up myself
yesterday. Mechanical problems.

274
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,680
-Completely fine.
-And don't worry:

275
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:11,560
We will take you to your meeting
in time at the cookie factory.

276
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,160
- You know about my meeting?
-Sure. Everyone does it.

277
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,320
Thank you.

278
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,960
Oh, these are incredible.

279
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,480
I remember you well.

280
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:10,400
Merry Christmas and welcome
Aunt Sally's Christmas Cookie Factory.

281
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,120
Hello. I'm Hannah Harper.
I have a meeting with Mr. Carter.

282
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:19,320
Naturally. My name is Melody.
Would you like to try today's Christmas cookie?

283
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,200
- Santa Claus shortbread.
- Does anyone ever say no, Melody?

284
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,120
- It hasn't happened yet.
- I won't be the first. Thank you.

285
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,680
Follow me. Jake is on the factory floor.
We walk through the specialty bakery.

286
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,840
-How long have you been here?
-20 years. My mother was here before me.

287
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:53,520
And my grandmother was Sally's
first employees in 1948.

288
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,840
- The extruder.
- Nice.

289
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,400
-The chocolate applicator.
-My favorite machine.

290
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,160
You have guaranteed
Ate quite a few cookies, right?

291
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,440
About 1,000 boxes, I would estimate.
Just about.

292
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,960
Why make a product
don't you love?

293
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:11,520
So true.

294
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,000
The chocolate packaging.

295
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:20,040
-Merry Christmas.
- You're killing me.

296
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,520
- Jake, Miss Harper has arrived.
- Thanks, Melody.

297
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,880
I'm making a basket of taste samples,
if you have to go.

298
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,640
Are you Jake Carter?

299
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,160
You look familiar.

300
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,960
Glad you find that funny,
Mr. Carter. I don't do that.

301
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,760
I find it disrespectful
and absolutely unprofessional.

302
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,960
I don't understand
Why didn't you say who you are?

303
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,680
-Fair enough. May I explain?
- If you can, keep going.

304
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,680
We're sorry. I should have said
You should meet me.

305
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,880
But when I had to pick one up
from National Foods, you nailed it.

306
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,080
- I thought Dan Wilcox was coming.
- Dan is no longer with the company.

307
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,800
-And that's a poor excuse.
- When I found out who you were...

308
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,160
...I didn't want to spoil the mood
with business.

309
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:41,880
What? The mood? Mister. Carter, who is
no mood". It's business.

310
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:48,320
Okay. Okay. We're sorry.
I just wanted to do Ed a favor.

311
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:54,280
- And I'm glad Wilcox slipped.
-Is that you when you're charming?

312
00:25:56,360 --> 00:26:00,600
Should we start over? Jake Carter.
A pleasure.

313
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:05,880
Hannah.

314
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,560
-Harper.
- Nice to meet you, Hannah Harper.

315
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,040
<i>Jake Carter!</i>
<i>They ask for you on the floor.</i>

316
00:26:19,120 --> 00:26:25,960
- I'm popular. Come, follow along.
-What?

317
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,160
- It'll only take a second, Mr. Carter.
-Jake.

318
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:34,480
OK, Jake. National Foods is convinced of this
that is a more than reasonable offer.

319
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,040
So I'm ready
to review the agreement with you.

320
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,880
-OK. I'll think about it.
-But you didn't even look?

321
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,280
- I don't need that.
-Why don't you need it?

322
00:26:47,360 --> 00:26:51,680
That's a good deal!
You're crazy if you say no.

323
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,080
-And you agreed!
- I didn't agree.

324
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,280
I said I was interested
and I'm not now.

325
00:26:58,360 --> 00:27:00,680
If you say no,
The employees get nothing.

326
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,760
- We're working on an alternative plan.
-What does that mean?

327
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:09,840
To keep the factory here.
It's not in your agreement.

328
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,240
OK. Do you mind?
say how?

329
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,120
Not now.

330
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,120
To keep the factory here
just doesn't make any sense!

331
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,000
Getting to Buffalo is easier.
And it's cheaper too!

332
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:32,680
-Perhaps. Then we have to get creative.
-Creative?

333
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,560
Jake, you're forgetting
I've seen the accounts.

334
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:40,880
- You need us to survive.
-Perhaps. Maybe not.

335
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,000
Every day that you do not keep the appointment,
You lose money.

336
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:48,360
And our plan will ensure that aunt
Sally's is sold in the USA...

337
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:53,080
-...and make you a rich man.
-I have enough.

338
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,960
I don't understand it.
What's happening here?

339
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:02,800
If you're trying to get a better deal,
then it doesn't work.

340
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,560
I'm telling you
that National Foods is slipping

341
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,880
- and you have to declare bankruptcy.

342
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:13,280
And, Jake, I love Aunt Sally's,
Okay? I don't want that to happen.

343
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,360
- Then we are at a crossroads.
-What are you saying?

344
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,400
Is the meeting over?

345
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,960
-Yes. I regret.
-No no. Wait and see!

346
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,280
At least you want to
Don't you see the proposal?

347
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:33,600
I owe you that. I take
a look. But don't expect too much.

348
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:38,800
Oh! Try ours before you go
Taste testing. They are fantastic.

349
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,520
Tasting...

350
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:14,000
Jake. Check out the stock option for them
employees. This is a good deal!

351
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,040
It depends on the perspective.

352
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,880
From everyone's perspective!

353
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:22,640
National Foods respects this Sally
gave employees a stake in the company.

354
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,800
We are happy to ensure
that they will be fine.

355
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,880
Does it feel good? Unemployed?
Nobody from here goes to Buffalo.

356
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,040
-You get a moving deduction!
- It's not always the money.

357
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,880
I didn't say that either.
but the money is not unimportant.

358
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,680
And Aunt Sally
does not turn in his ... dough.

359
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,120
Fast.

360
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,960
If the factory can stay here,
I will check the offer.

361
00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,120
- You know I can't do that.
- Then we can't act.

362
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,400
Wait and see. Wait wait!
Okay, listen. I like this:

363
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,680
I'll look at the numbers again.
And calls my boss.

364
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,080
But you have to go with me
for another meeting. Today.

365
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,800
You owe me something. Come on.

366
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,560
Especially afterwards
with the wrong taxi driver "Ed".

367
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,640
-OK.
-OK. OK.

368
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:32,200
- I offer lunch?
- In the cafe at 12 p.m.

369
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,000
Tell Ed I said hello.

370
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,480
Fast. Fast.

371
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:51,800
I understand your position, sir. He
says he is working on an alternative.

372
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:57,360
He did not give any details.
I think he's bluffing.

373
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,760
Yes. OK. I'm sure
He accepts the new deal, sir

374
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,080
I'll call as soon as the meeting is over.

375
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,840
OK. Thank you. Goodbye.

376
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,640
-Hi.
-How are you doing?

377
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,720
Fine.
Thank you for wanting to meet again.

378
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:49,160
My boss authorized me
to sweeten the deal a little for you.

379
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:54,520
Coffee. We're sorry.

380
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,840
It says nothing about us staying here?

381
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,560
I know. I know.

382
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,840
It just doesn't make sense
to keep the factory here.

383
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,960
buffalo is better,
more sensible solution. OK?

384
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,280
But this one
is a very generous offer.

385
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,120
-Your last offer?
-Yes. Yes, this is a final offer.

386
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,880
National Foods refuses
if you do not accept the agreement.

387
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,840
Jake, if I were you
I would think about it carefully-

388
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,200
- because you have no other options.

389
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,160
-Hi. What would it be?
-Coffee please.

390
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:53,800
-Coffee. Lady?
- A refill. More coffee.

391
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,200
Disappointing, Hannah. I thought
you would fight more.

392
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:04,680
I fought, okay? But that's just it
not in the interest of National Foods.

393
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:11,280
-All of our resources are in Buffalo.
- I have to think about it.

394
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,680
Jake, it's best for you
employees long-term.

395
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,720
Perhaps. Maybe not.

396
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,840
Oh yes.
I had completely forgotten your plan.

397
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,400
My plan is unlikely
but it's worth researching.

398
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,760
No worries. I ponder it.

399
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:35,440
What? What does that mean?
"Brewer"? How long will it take?

400
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,520
Usually you brew over something
for 72 hours.

401
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:43,440
72 hours? It's been three days!
Jake, it's Christmas.

402
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,680
And I can't go home
before you sign!

403
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:52,720
You're right. Speaking of which:
We hold a ball every year on Christmas Eve.

404
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,960
I definitely think you should come.
I think you will have fun.

405
00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:01,240
- Can I take that as a “yes”?
- It was an "I'm wondering about it."

406
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:14,520
- Is she coming back?
-She's coming back.

407
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,040
I like her now, Jake.

408
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,880
Gavin, I tell you, I am a lot
Sorry. I have to stay!

409
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,320
- It's not my choice at all.
- But my Christmas party! It is important.

410
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,240
You promised! The partners are there.
I wanted to introduce you.

411
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,960
Can't your boss send someone else?
for the cookie jar?

412
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,320
I can't ask my boss
Send another one.

413
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,480
This is my job. And I have to
Land this deal, no one else will.

414
00:34:47,720 --> 00:34:51,600
Fine. But where am I?
on your priority list, Hannah?

415
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:57,560
-Am I even close to the top?
-Yes. You are absolutely first class.

416
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,800
You're just... number two.
As soon as I'm done here...

417
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,120
-... you're number one again.
-Until the next task.

418
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,760
Yes, sorry.
I promise I'll make it up to you.

419
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,960
If you really want to join in
You'll find out at my party.

420
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:19,040
-Love you. Don't wear too much now.
-OK.

421
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,160
Hi! I hear
Are you staying over Christmas Eve?

422
00:35:35,240 --> 00:35:38,080
- Word gets around fast, huh?
- That's wonderful.

423
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:42,040
Then you can spend Christmas with us
in the cookie jar.

424
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,000
-Aren't you coming?
-Where?

425
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,520
When the tree is decorated. It's tonight!

426
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,920
- You just have to be there.
-Oh, it was a stressful day.

427
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:55,560
- I still have a lot of work.
- Jake is here. You can talk to him!

428
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,200
-OK. I'm changing right now.
- See you soon.

429
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:09,160
-To reach?
- Wow, Betty! Did you help with all of this?

430
00:36:09,240 --> 00:36:13,000
-Yes. Maybe a little.
- You can take out the loan.

431
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,760
- It's nice, isn't it?
-Yes definitely.

432
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:20,040
We decorated the Christmas tree in the park,
since I was a little girl.

433
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,280
-Yes?
-Yes. The tree was lower then.

434
00:36:23,720 --> 00:36:27,000
- Hello, Betty.
-Oh, hello, Herbert! Do you remember Hanna?

435
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:32,320
Oh yes. From National Foods.
I heard the rumor. A cup of punch?

436
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:36,120
-Thank you.
-Oh, thank you, Herbert. How wonderful.

437
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,720
Good evening. Thanks for coming.

438
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:43,600
Welcome to the 52nd Annual Ignition
of the Christmas tree on the square.

439
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,960
But before we go outside-

440
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,800
- I will welcome
to Bonnie from the fourth…

441
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,760
...who wants to sing
"Oh Christmas tree."

442
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,600
- Come on, Bonnie.
-Merry Christmas to everyone.

443
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:03,120
oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree
How beautiful are your branches

444
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:09,320
oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree
How beautiful are your branches

445
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:15,440
It always grows in beautiful green
in summer sun and winter snow

446
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:21,920
oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree
How beautiful are your branches

447
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,440
I guess I owe an apology
for the path I took.

448
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,480
It wasn't very professional
from me, I'm sorry.

449
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:51,080
It's completely fine.
I guess you're just doing your job.

450
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:58,680
- Are you glad you came?
-Just look at it. Yes, I am.

451
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,320
Yes, it's a nice tradition.

452
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,120
I should probably go back to the inn.

453
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,920
It's still early.
I have a question for you.

454
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:17,320
-How do you feel about cake?
-How do I feel about cake?

455
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:24,080
-Pumpkin, to be exact.
- I love pumpkin pie.

456
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,640
Oh! That was luck.
I know a great place.

457
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,520
- So Aunt Sally raised you?
-Yes.

458
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,680
Yes, she adopted me,
when I was two.

459
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:48,360
I don't remember my parents.
How did you end up in this company?

460
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,560
Have you always dreamed of a job?
in American business?

461
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:58,000
No. Actually it would be me
professional princess.

462
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:04,680
But there are very few of these jobs
So, here I am!

463
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,160
What's wrong with you?
Have you always wanted to become a lawyer?

464
00:39:09,240 --> 00:39:15,080
-I wanted to own my own zoo.
-Really?

465
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:19,000
When I found out how much
There is cleaning, it has lost its appeal.

466
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,560
Yes. I can understand that.

467
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,640
There was a time when I thought -

468
00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:29,200
-that this city was too small
to fulfill big dreams.

469
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:35,960
-Yes? What were the big dreams?
- To make a lot of money.

470
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,240
When I found the real world
and well served…

471
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:46,520
- ... I realized that something was missing.
-What?

472
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:54,520
The feeling of family.
The kindness I feel here.

473
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,320
Yes. It's home.

474
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,600
Yes. It's home.

475
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,720
Speaking of home: I have to go back
to the inn. It's getting late.

476
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:21,280
-Should I follow you back?
- You are welcome to do so. Thank you.

477
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,880
- That was a good cake!
- So little. I baked it.

478
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,600
-You're kidding!
-I did this.

479
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,960
- Guess I forgot mittens.
-Yes.

480
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:43,320
So what's wrong with you?
You seem like a nice guy.

481
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,640
-Why aren't you married?
- Did you notice that?

482
00:40:45,720 --> 00:40:51,440
- I did, yes.
- I was engaged once.

483
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:56,200
-What happened?
-She loved life in New York.

484
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,600
-She wasn't happy when I left.
-I understand.

485
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:07,200
-I can't see a ring either?
-No, you can't. I don't have one.

486
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:11,120
-Why not?
- It's the career race.

487
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,600
The long evenings. I hadn't
Time to find the right one.

488
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:20,760
But I found a lot of wrong ones.
You can always find them.

489
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,200
- Do you sign?
-So it's business again?

490
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,720
That's kind of why I'm here.

491
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:41,680
I think I have 60 hours left
to brew about it.

492
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:45,480
Brewing time, right?
Well, I had forgotten that.

493
00:41:46,240 --> 00:41:51,280
Jake, in a perfect world Auntie would do it
Sally is staying here in town.

494
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,560
But the world is not perfect.

495
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:03,280
- 60 hours left. Good night.
-Good night.

496
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,360
-Hi.
- Oh, Hanna. Hi!

497
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,320
-Is everything ok?
-Betty.

498
00:42:39,240 --> 00:42:45,720
I had to be professional.
Just get the deal and go home.

499
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,920
I thought I had done something good
by securing Aunt Sally's.

500
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:56,400
But Jake is just so stubborn.

501
00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:01,120
Why doesn't he just understand?
that this is the best solution?

502
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,600
Well, are you sure?
that it is the best solution?

503
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,280
Yes. I mean, the numbers don't lie.

504
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:14,360
It should probably fit, but they say
not always the whole story either.

505
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:22,440
-How well do you know Aunt Sally?
-She was my best friend.

506
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,480
True to bone and razor sharp.
When it came to cookies...

507
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,640
-...she was a perfectionist.
-Apparently!

508
00:43:29,720 --> 00:43:31,280
If you wanted to be employed -

509
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,040
-you should remember the recipe
completely by heart.

510
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:39,400
-You had to remember everything?
-Yes. Everything that should be.

511
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:43,080
-What does that mean?
- I made the glaze.

512
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,080
Today I can make the best icing,
you tasted it.

513
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:52,440
- I don't doubt that at all, Betty.
-But the cookie itself is a mystery.

514
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:56,080
The same is the crumble or the caramel
and everything else.

515
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,240
Aunt Sally didn't let anyone
write down the recipe.

516
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:03,320
Because what matters
If only you knew?

517
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,560
- You have to feel it.
-Yes.

518
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,760
Do you know where Aunt Sally's house is?

519
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,920
That's the sweet thing
White House on the corner.

520
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:14,760
Jake lives there now.

521
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,920
Christmas is what you make of it.
Or bake it for.

522
00:44:37,240 --> 00:44:40,400
-I like that!
-Oh, it looks great!

523
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,960
-But one thing is missing.
-The nose!

524
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:49,520
Do you want the loan?

525
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,800
One like this. The last.

526
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,760
-Hi!
-Hello Hanna!

527
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,440
- Do you like the snowman family?
-I love it.

528
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:15,040
They are fantastic! But I think
a single thing is missing.

529
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,760
- Can I fix it?
-Sure.

530
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,280
-What are you doing?
- I'll take your scarf.

531
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,600
- It's my scarf.
-No longer.

532
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:34,400
-Okay, how about this? Is it OK?
- I think it's perfect.

533
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:38,440
- Large.
- Bonnie! You have to come home, darling.

534
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:42,600
Jake said he would drive me
so we can train for luge.

535
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,360
- Are you sure, Jake?
-Of course! We have to practice.

536
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,560
- She will be back in a few hours.
- Hannah, that Stephanie.

537
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,280
Hello. Ok darling.
Just remember to wear your gloves.

538
00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:55,800
- This also applies to you.
- Okay, mom.

539
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,240
- Do you want to go sledding with us?
- Toboggan racing?

540
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:06,600
-This is a big deal!
-I don't really know. What do you say?

541
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,480
-It will be fun.
-Shall I come?

542
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,600
-Yes!
- I can't tell her no.

543
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:13,680
- Then we can talk business.
-Yes!

544
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:21,920
- It's nice here! What do you call it?
- Carter Mountain.

545
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,480
-No.
- Yes.

546
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,040
Then no!

547
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:32,440
- Everyone on the sleigh!
-All of us? Can we be there?

548
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:36,480
I sit in the front, you in the middle,
and Jake steers behind.

549
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,080
I don't know it. it is
It's been a long time since I've been sledding.

550
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,200
-Come on!
- I can't say no.

551
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,360
You look like a little puppy. OK.
OK. I'm going with you.

552
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,360
It was great. Let's do this again!

553
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,040
Again?

554
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,560
-Again!
-OK. We're going for another ride.

555
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:28,440
So you think, you and Bonnie
have a chance of winning the race?

556
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,960
Who knows? Tough competitors.
Sam and Melody usually win.

557
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:36,840
- So it shouldn't happen again.
-Thank you. I'll try to avoid it.

558
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,360
- I had fun today.
-I did that too.

559
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,040
We're sorry.

560
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:06,320
-Profession?
- No, it was just my friend.

561
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:10,360
- He's probably surprised I'm here.
- I think I'm the reason why.

562
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:15,040
Yes you are. If you had written
when I asked about it-

563
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,680
- Can I be home?
and now eat ice cream with a good book.

564
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:23,000
But instead I'm standing here with you
and scratches this car window.

565
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,200
What do you think of our little town?

566
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:34,600
I find
You can celebrate Christmas well.

567
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:38,400
If you're into that sort of thing.

568
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,920
If you stay long enough,
Does the city change you?

569
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,240
Then it takes a miracle.

570
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:49,160
Don't you want to have dinner?
at my aunt's tonight?

571
00:48:49,240 --> 00:48:53,040
-Is this a professional dinner?
-Call it whatever you want.

572
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:57,080
But we are in the middle of the brewing season -

573
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,240
- so I need to know
what I stand for.

574
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,640
Come and have dinner. Then we'll talk.

575
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:11,960
Jake. Jake.

576
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,120
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.

577
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:46,600
-Wow, it's beautiful here! Thank you.
-Hannah is here!

578
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,440
- Bonnie?
-Hi! We've met before. Stephanie.

579
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,400
- Do you remember Stephanie? It's Frank.
-Hello Hanna.

580
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:57,440
- Brooke.
- By the way, my name is Frank.

581
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,040
you didn't say
Shall we talk business?

582
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,000
We should talk. Not about what.

583
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,440
- That's why I'm here.
-Hello Hanna!

584
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,680
You have to sit next to me
at the dining table.

585
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,640
-The food is ready!
-Pasta!

586
00:50:15,720 --> 00:50:20,000
Brooke is an amazing cook.
She should cook, not be a doctor.

587
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:25,320
I love helping people. Cooking
It's fun, but I want to make a difference.

588
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,840
-Nice for you.
-Should we say thank you?

589
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:30,400
-Yes.
-Oh yes.

590
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:38,040
Thanksgiving is when you say something
you are grateful for. A tradition.

591
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:44,120
-OK. Bonnie?
-Thank you for Hannah, my new friend!

592
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:48,080
Oh how sweet.
We are all grateful to Hannah.

593
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:55,000
-Treasure?
-Yes, I'm grateful for Christmas...

594
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:56,920
-... time of generosity.
-And Santa Claus!

595
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,720
Yes. And of course Santa Claus.
Brooke?

596
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:06,280
Thank you for a wonderful family,
especially my parents-

597
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,600
-what saved,
so that I can study medicine.

598
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:15,240
Thank you for my work for 20 years
in the best cookie factory in the world.

599
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:22,280
I am grateful for this home.
And for this city.

600
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:27,160
I am grateful for this glory
Eating with great friends.

601
00:51:30,240 --> 00:51:37,440
Oh. It's my turn? OK! I am
grateful for our sleigh ride today.

602
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,680
It was great. I didn't do it
since I was ten.

603
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:44,480
And I'm grateful to you too,
Bonnie.

604
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:49,400
-OK. Let's eat!
-Okay, let the waiter serve.

605
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,560
Brooke really makes it hot.

606
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:04,080
-Hello you two. Let me take over.
-Oh crap.

607
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,360
Do you want to come along?
for the gingerbread house competition?

608
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,920
-How many traditions do you have here?
-I know. There are quite a few.

609
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:17,440
But it's so beautiful. The best
until? We'll eat the houses afterwards!

610
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,400
And we are always looking
by impartial judges.

611
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:24,880
This is actually possible in this city
is considered a Christmas miracle.

612
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,600
Bonnie would love to have you there.

613
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:33,160
- You are very convincing. OK.
-Wonderful.

614
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:39,400
Furthermore...
Thank you for allowing me to attend this evening.

615
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,240
I don't have family dinners often.

616
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,400
It was a joy
Having you at the table, Hannah.

617
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,280
It is I who gives thanks.

618
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,480
Perfect!
It was exactly what I was looking for.

619
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,320
-This?
-Yes.

620
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,520
-Do you want that? This cake?
-Yes.

621
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,600
Oh, I don't really know.
This cake has even more to offer.

622
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:05,480
No. Is this the last piece?
It's actually the last...

623
00:53:07,720 --> 00:53:11,240
Hello people! Good evening.
May I ask for your attention?

624
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:16,760
The Gingerbread House judges will be watching
Precision, difficulty, innovation

625
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:18,440
- and overall presentation.

626
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:23,680
This year we have a very special one
Surprise for our top 3!

627
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:29,520
Give us a moment to get the last ones
volunteer judges ready. Thank you.

628
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:35,280
I should take part next year. I can
bake. I'm actually a good baker.

629
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,400
-Next year?
-You know what I mean.

630
00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,000
Interesting.

631
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:48,880
When are you going to tell me about it?
big plan to preserve the factory?

632
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:52,520
-Or is it a secret?
-No. It's no secret.

633
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:54,720
I'm talking to a dealer
in Canada.

634
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:58,360
They are located in two provinces
and expands to include three more.

635
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,680
They love Aunt Sally's.
And they want to invest...

636
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:08,240
-...and then we can stay here.
-Nice for you.

637
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:09,800
We'll have to see how it goes.

638
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:12,440
-Hi.
-Hello you!

639
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:17,320
-I hear you're going to be a judge?
- Did you hear that? OK!

640
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,400
Here is the schedule. The houses have numbers

641
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:22,640
-and here are the criteria. Have fun!

642
00:54:22,720 --> 00:54:27,640
-OK. Wow. I became a judge.
-Congratulations.

643
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:32,360
Hello folks!
Judge, you may walk around now.

644
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,960
- Won't you keep this warm for me?
-You should walk around.

645
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,120
Oh, I walk around in shame.
I'll do that now.

646
00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:39,440
Ladies and gentlemen!
Now to what we've all been waiting for!

647
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:43,560
This year's winner
“Best House” receives-

648
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:48,760
- a lifelong supply
from Aunt Sally's Christmas Cookies!

649
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:52,080
I know! I'm so excited.
And the winner is...

650
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:59,800
...Herbert White with “Christmas Time
at the Gingerbread Inn"! Come here, Herb!

651
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,920
Thank you, judge.
And congratulations to all participants.

652
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:08,080
That rounds off this year's event
Gingerbread house competition. Good night.

653
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,320
-Thank you.
-Can we talk about the house? Unbelievable!

654
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,560
-Yes. I know.
-Yes! Have you tried it?

655
00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:16,920
No. I eat it on the go.
Maybe for next year.

656
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:21,200
You're going to Princeton,
do you remember, miss?

657
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,800
-Yes. When it happens.
-What do you mean by that?

658
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:30,040
If the factory closes now, and the family
Need help, I'll stay here.

659
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:36,880
- That's pretty selfless of you.
- Family means everything to me.

660
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:40,920
I don't just mean my family.
The whole city. Let's see.

661
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:44,000
Yes. It's pretty incredible.

662
00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:51,520
-Oh.
-It's okay. I'm going to find Bonnie.

663
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:07,680
-Then we were here again.
- Yes, so smorme.

664
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:11,360
-Can I ask you something?
-Yes.

665
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:19,720
Why would you sell the factory?
They seem completely against it now.

666
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:26,520
- letters.
- Letters?

667
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:30,560
Two weeks after Aunt Sally died-

668
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:35,280
-Herb forwarded hundreds of letters
to my office in New York.

669
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,520
They were written by people
who was here-

670
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:41,600
-and spent Christmas here.

671
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:46,480
They wanted to tell her
about the glorious family traditions-

672
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:51,280
- and their memories,
because she and this place existed.

673
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:55,960
They must have been touching to read.

674
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:01,920
And now I'm faced with a decision,
this can affect the entire city.

675
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,600
And I don't know
whether I can save the company.

676
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,920
But I'll try anyway.

677
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:12,360
This city deserves it.
Aunt Sally deserves it.

678
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:17,640
And the people who wrote these letters
they deserve it too.

679
00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:25,200
-OK. Well, sleep well.
-To sleep well.

680
00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:34,760
I hope
you're getting your Christmas miracle, Jake.

681
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:47,280
Listen!

682
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:53,360
We still have two candidates
Win or lose competition of the year.

683
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:58,520
The reigning champions, Sam and Melody,
against the newcomers Bonnie and Jake-

684
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:03,400
-who just won the semifinals!
And now: the grand finale!

685
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:09,080
-You win everything!
- I don't know now.

686
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:12,320
-Why do you say that?
-Jake's ankle hurts.

687
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:19,120
Oh yes. All these trips.
I ended up spraining my ankle.

688
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:24,520
-What? No. I'm sorry.
-You can ride along like we practiced?

689
00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:27,880
So you won't be disqualified?

690
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,320
-Sam.
-Yes?

691
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,760
you don't mind
that Hannah is going with us, right?

692
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:39,720
Well, you gain more weight,
if there are three of you. An unfair advantage.

693
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:43,440
With all the cookies you eat, Sam,
then we beat them.

694
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:48,840
Okay, if you don't mind,
then we'll do it.

695
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:53,000
So let's drop the nonsense.
We have a race to complete!

696
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:58,920
- We give you rear wheels!
- You're going to get beaten up.

697
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,520
Give us a nudge?
My ankle, you know...

698
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:06,080
Yes. OK.

699
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:12,200
- I see it hurts.
-Give the signal when you are ready.

700
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:19,000
Driver, in place, ready, go!

701
01:00:56,560 --> 01:01:03,680
Congratulations to our winners
and Sleigh Masters: Sam and Melody!

702
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:09,120
And Bonnie, Jake and Hannah!

703
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:13,680
For the first time, ladies
and gentlemen, we have a draw!

704
01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:16,040
Don't think you'll win next year.

705
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:21,880
-We'll see! We'll see.
-We have presents!

706
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:34,080
-Look! Your ankle feels better.
-Yes. That's what happens when you win.

707
01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,600
- It was a draw.
- About first place.

708
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,720
- Hannah?
-Gavin?

709
01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:54,960
I missed you so much.

710
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:01,560
I called and wrote. it is
almost Christmas and I just had to see you.

711
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:07,160
Yes, Gavin, wow.
What a surprise!

712
01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:11,440
-Am I disturbing something? Gavin.
-Jake.

713
01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:13,480
Hannah is my better half.

714
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:19,080
Yes, Gavin and I are... we are...

715
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:20,640
A pleasure to meet you.

716
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:26,680
You're welcome. No worries.
He won't bother you anymore.

717
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:28,240
What?

718
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:33,520
Gavin, it's not what you think.
He's the one I'm negotiating with.

719
01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:46,240
Listen: I've been thinking about it
and I think that's the right thing to do.

720
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:49,720
-What is right?
-US. This.

721
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,240
Gavin, what are you doing?
What are you doing?

722
01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:02,480
Hannah Harper,
We are made for each other.

723
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:09,400
Do you want to marry me?

724
01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:15,160
Take care.

725
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:20,320
Gavin, I...

726
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:34,000
Jake? I didn't know he was coming.
OK? It was a total surprise.

727
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:40,040
-When will the wedding take place?
- I didn't say yes.

728
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:48,560
-Why not? He seems nice.
- Don't you want to look at me?

729
01:03:55,520 --> 01:04:00,400
I know I should have said something.
I said I need more time.

730
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:06,120
Jake, I'm sorry.

731
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:13,640
No, that's good enough. I understand.
It was all about the agreement.

732
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:19,480
No! No. I mean, yes. At the beginning
It was all about the agreement.

733
01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:24,560
But then I got to know the city,
the people and how special they are.

734
01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:30,160
And I met you.
And how special you are.

735
01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:40,560
We're sorry.

736
01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:46,360
Hello. Mr. Thürber. We're sorry,
I can't speak right now. Goodbye.

737
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:49,120
It was my boss.

738
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:53,800
He's probably wondering why you
do not have a signed contract.

739
01:04:55,360 --> 01:05:00,320
Here is my plan. He will stay
glad. And I signed.

740
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,640
What about Canada and your plan?

741
01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:07,400
They withdrew.

742
01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:11,560
It would take them half a year.
And I don't have half a year.

743
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:15,760
-I regret.
-Why? You won.

744
01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:22,360
But wait. This gives the employees
and their families everything?

745
01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:24,520
You don't get anything yourself?

746
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,640
Congratulations.
You just bought a cookie company.

747
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:31,960
Wait and see! Jake. Hold onto.

748
01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:38,600
This is another contract,
So my boss has to accept it too.

749
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,600
If you say so, Miss Harper.

750
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,560
There you were. Hello.
I know you're here on business.

751
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:11,120
-but don't you think so
Mr. Thurber can wait?

752
01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,600
-Who works all Christmas?
-Yes...

753
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:17,720
Sir. Thurber. I have to call him.
Jake signed the agreement.

754
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,160
Fantastic!
Then you can call from the train.

755
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:25,040
-The train?
-Yes. Is the deal final? We're going home.

756
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:27,640
We can come home to my Christmas party.

757
01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:31,160
I know you were stressed,
but now it's over.

758
01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:33,520
We can relax,
and you can think about it.

759
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:37,440
And tomorrow I can show you off
for my partners.

760
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:41,080
Not? It's going to be great!
Let us collect your things.

761
01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:58,520
-Are you sure you want this?
-No I'm not.

762
01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:02,280
But Gavin is here,
and I'm going to his Christmas party.

763
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,800
-Christmas is what you...
-Baker.

764
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:16,080
-Merry Christmas.
-Oh, evil me! I have nothing.

765
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,440
On the other hand. You gave me your friendship.

766
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,320
It is the greatest gift
you can give someone. Open it.

767
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,600
It's nothing more.

768
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:36,440
-You made Christmas decorations for me.
- It's for the tree. You are one of us now.

769
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:41,360
Thank you.

770
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:46,480
Merry Christmas.

771
01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:52,920
Hannah! We have to go! The train!

772
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:58,880
I have to run. We're sorry.
Thank you for everything.

773
01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:10,760
Everyone at my party will be so jealous.

774
01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:14,080
I can't wait
until the partners see you.

775
01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:17,080
They are all married.
As a kind of initiation ritual.

776
01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:22,040
- Glad you changed your mind.
- What are you talking about, Gavin?

777
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:28,600
- Maybe you should try it?
-Gavin. Put it away now. You do not want to?

778
01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:33,680
Did you notice I didn't?
did you say yes? Not even!

779
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:38,560
- You just assumed I did it.
-I don't understand?

780
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:41,280
I know.
I won't change my mind.

781
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:44,680
I have to decide
and I have. I can't...

782
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:53,920
I can't do this anymore. I know
Well, that's crazy, all of it.

783
01:08:54,000 --> 01:09:00,040
I was just in this city
for a few days, but I've changed.

784
01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:01,600
I'm different now.

785
01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:05,600
It was the people here.
You made something clear to me-

786
01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:08,920
-I couldn't see before.

787
01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:15,080
I'm the closest
a new version of myself.

788
01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:23,920
And I just don't have that spark
for you, the...

789
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:26,040
I understand.

790
01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:33,440
So Jake didn't just try to kiss
You. You let him do it.

791
01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:42,240
I have to go.
I have a Christmas party I'm going to.

792
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:55,760
Oh! Mister. Thurber.
I didn't know you were coming, sir.

793
01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:59,800
You had known that
if you hadn't hung up.

794
01:09:59,880 --> 01:10:04,880
-Sir, what are you doing here?
- I'll take care of the deal.

795
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:06,880
It doesn't seem like you do.

796
01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:09,920
I said it had to be finished before Christmas.

797
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:12,040
I don't want to see my competitor win.

798
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:14,400
I made the deal, sir.

799
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:19,760
-Did you sign?
-Yes, there are changed conditions.

800
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:24,080
That's why I wanted to take the train back,
so you can approve it.

801
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:27,600
-Interesting changes.
-Yeah, I know, Jake...

802
01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:30,680
Sir. Fuhrman
leaves everything to the employees.

803
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:35,400
He said they make Aunt Sally's
Cookies for what they are.

804
01:10:35,480 --> 01:10:40,480
I don't care who we pay,
just the cookies they sell.

805
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:44,120
Well, I think we can
back to New York...

806
01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:48,840
I guess we'll have to stay in the cookie jar.

807
01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:52,000
Do you think you can get me a meeting?
with Mr. Carter?

808
01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:56,320
-Yes indeed. I can do that.
-Fine.

809
01:10:56,760 --> 01:11:01,520
Just between the two of us:
I just missed three Christmas parties.

810
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,400
-Three?
-Yes. One of them is at my house.

811
01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:10,400
I'm coming, sir!

812
01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:14,200
-Hi?
-Hello Hanna. Where are you?

813
01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:17,240
- Hello Kelly.
- You're on the train home, aren't you?

814
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:19,880
No.
I'm actually stranded until tomorrow.

815
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:25,280
-What? Tomorrow is Christmas Eve!
-Kelly, I can't talk now.

816
01:12:17,440 --> 01:12:22,160
-Kelly!
-Oh, I missed you so much!

817
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:24,600
-What are you doing here?
-Should I celebrate Christmas...

818
01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:30,160
...without my big sister? No!
Oh, it looks just like itself!

819
01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:34,800
I know what you're looking for.
They're right behind me.

820
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:37,120
Which, which? This!

821
01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:40,080
My first Christmas cookie.

822
01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:47,160
- It's incredible that you came.
- I missed quality baked goods.

823
01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:49,320
I tried to bake myself,
when you didn't come-

824
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,440
-but I don't have a recipe,
and I can't bake...

825
01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,520
...so I ended up throwing them away.
Because of this.

826
01:12:55,760 --> 01:13:00,720
-Why are you so well dressed?
- I'm going to the Christmas ball.

827
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:04,680
A Christmas ball? Fantastic.
I want to go. I love dancing.

828
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:07,960
-No? Aren't you excited?
- Well, we have the deal.

829
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,040
So there are probably many
Who would rather not see me there?

830
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,240
But there is someone
I have to say goodbye

831
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:16,400
And? Where is Gavin?

832
01:13:16,480 --> 01:13:21,120
I broke up with him
after he proposed in front of the entire town.

833
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:23,480
-What?
-Yes.

834
01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:29,160
Is it a “hug me” situation,
or a “high five” situation?

835
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:33,520
- It's an "I'm okay" situation.
-OK. We have a lot to talk about, okay?

836
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:39,600
So I change my clothes,
and you can tell me anything.

837
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:52,800
Good evening everyone.
Nice to see you all tonight.

838
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:56,680
Tonight will be a little different
than in previous years.

839
01:13:56,760 --> 01:14:02,240
I know you've heard the rumors and I have
can say that they are no longer rumors.

840
01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:09,080
Aunt Sally's transcends
to National Foods January 1st.

841
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:16,880
She loved you all so much.

842
01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:21,600
She took care of you
and considered you her family.

843
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,400
I really hope you know that.

844
01:14:25,240 --> 01:14:28,880
And although we now
go separate ways

845
01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:32,120
-then you should know
that I feel the same way.

846
01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:39,680
-I wish I could do more.
- You did your best, Jake.

847
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:51,560
I want to own this song
to her. Merry Christmas.

848
01:14:56,480 --> 01:15:00,960
-Jake. You did everything you could.
-We're sorry. Can we talk to each other?

849
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:02,520
-Sure.
-Thank you.

850
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:09,040
I just wanted to say
We take good care of your company.

851
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:12,720
quality control,
Original recipes and everything.

852
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,440
-Thank you. It deserves it.
-Yes.

853
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:21,120
If we don't have mom's recipe,
Maybe we can steal Aunt Sally's?

854
01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:24,480
-And some bigger clothes.
-What are you saying?

855
01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:29,520
-I accept my future obesity?
-No no. The one with mom's recipe.

856
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:31,720
Well, there is no recipe. And?

857
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:35,640
- There is no recipe.
-No.

858
01:15:36,480 --> 01:15:40,400
Nobody has the recipe.

859
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:46,440
Kelly, no one has the recipe!
You are a genius!

860
01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:49,640
It's not brilliant
because when someone dies, I mean...

861
01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:52,480
Jake. Jake! Stay a moment.

862
01:15:56,200 --> 01:16:00,520
Hi! Sorry for disturbing,
all.

863
01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:03,880
My name is Hannah Harper.
I work for National Foods.

864
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:07,360
-What is she doing?
- Mister? Just listen to me, okay?

865
01:16:09,480 --> 01:16:14,080
What do you think of when I say
“Aunt Sally’s Christmas Cookies”?

866
01:16:14,160 --> 01:16:16,480
-Cookies and Christmas.
- Aunt Sally's way.

867
01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:19,880
Christmas and cookies Aunt Sally's way.
What does that mean?

868
01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:25,520
For me that means a product with a
Taste you won't find anywhere else.

869
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:30,640
Sir, National Foods can probably own
the name "Aunt Sally's Christmas Cookies"...

870
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:33,840
-...but the cookies don't belong to us.
-We own the whole company?

871
01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:39,320
No. We don't own these people.
Let me explain what I mean.

872
01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:43,360
Betty? You worked
for Aunt Sally, right?

873
01:16:43,440 --> 01:16:45,440
- Yes.
-Okay, and what did you do?

874
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:48,040
- I made the glaze.
-OK. What else?

875
01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:52,840
-Nothing else.
-OK. And who will put the icing on the cake now?

876
01:16:53,280 --> 01:16:56,880
OK. And who bakes shortbread?
And make caramel?

877
01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,040
-I could go on.
- Sorry, what's your point?

878
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:05,040
The point, sir, is that no person
or the company owns these cookies.

879
01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:08,520
The city does. Nothing is written down.

880
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:14,240
These recipes only exist in the mind
on each of you.

881
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:22,040
And without all of you
Aunt Sally's doesn't exist at all.

882
01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:24,000
Mister. Thurber, have you tried the cookies?

883
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:26,760
-I had not.
-OK. Kelly?

884
01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:31,720
Don't you want to share these cookies there?
Give him one.

885
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:34,840
-That...
- "Santa's Shortbread."

886
01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:37,560
This is the original recipe.

887
01:17:38,480 --> 01:17:41,560
-Okay, and how does it taste?
- Wow.

888
01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:46,000
Yes! it's "wow"
because of the secret ingredient!

889
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:49,440
The secret ingredient
is love.

890
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:52,880
I say this because everyone here
love their work.

891
01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:56,040
You love this city,
and they love Aunt Sally's.

892
01:17:56,400 --> 01:18:00,400
They love it all
these cookies represent.

893
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,960
You can move to Buffalo and get hired
People who operate machines

894
01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:07,200
- but it won't taste good
in the same way.

895
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:13,360
When people want to take a bite
a Christmas cookie from Aunt Sally and think:

896
01:18:13,440 --> 01:18:15,800
“That's how I remember it
From my childhood"-

897
01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:20,240
-Then you have to hire these people
to make them here in the cookie jar.

898
01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:26,840
If this city has taught me anything,
then it needs a spark

899
01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:33,560
- and love to do something special.
It cannot be easily produced.

900
01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:39,160
Devotion! I'm happy for,
Thank you for finding your passion, Hannah.

901
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:46,040
That's what I've learned over the years
is passion that moves things.

902
01:18:46,120 --> 01:18:51,760
-Can you do that?
- I know I can, sir.

903
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:55,000
Jake?

904
01:18:59,600 --> 01:19:01,360
-Planned appointment.
-Planned appointment.

905
01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:08,320
Well done!

906
01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:12,480
I'm going to university!

907
01:19:58,160 --> 01:19:59,960
Exactly where it belongs.

908
01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:05,720
I'm so glad this
won't be Aunt Sally's last Christmas.

909
01:20:06,440 --> 01:20:10,480
You managed. You did it
Yes really. You saved this city.

910
01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:17,280
I don't know now.
Sometimes you have to be creative, right?

911
01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:19,840
- I heard that once.
-Do you have?

912
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:27,920
-What now?
- Well, someone has to stay here...

913
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:32,240
...and ensure
that you don't screw up the whole company.

914
01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:34,360
That's not what I meant.

915
01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:43,600
I hope this
could be the first Christmas of many.

916
01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:48,600
-Here with you.
-I would like to.

917
01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:02,040
Then I got a miracle.

918
01:21:04,240 --> 01:21:05,720
I got mine too.

919
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:54,520
