(helicopter whirring)

Hey guys. Prince Alexander here.

I was on the mountain today and I ran into a spot of trouble.

I guess that unmarked trail was roped off for a reason.

But don't worry.

I'm being taken care of by my friend here of the ski patrol.

I'll be back up in no time.

Helicopter's here.

Hello.

You're not making a video, are you?

Your father's going to have a fit.

This is Bella. Say hi Bella.

We have to go.

Cheers guys. I'll give you an update soon.

-No he won't! -Hey!

Come on.

Come along.

♪ ♪

You sure that's the right move?

Who's the doctor here?

I'm just saying.

The last time I saw you do this,

you, ah, you messed up.

That's because I was seven.

And you were crying.

I was only crying because you were making some

pretty bad mistakes.

Forceps.

I mean watching you right now

is making me tear up just a little bit.

I thought you were

supposed to be good at this?

I'm not good at this.

I'm great at this.

I thinks he's going to make it.

Uh huh. (Laughs)

Thank you, Doctor Tasha.

All part of my job, Ben.

He was a very brave patient.

He was. He was. How's he look?

Great! How'd you do that?

Well, you know, just using our doctor and nurse skills.

I got to hand it to you, that was some pretty good

work in there today.

Was that a compliment?

Yeah.

What do you want?

Well, can't a guy compliment his sister

without wanting something?

Amber back me up.

He complimented me for no good reason.

I say he wants something.

I was being nice!

Did he pat you on the back?

He did.

Definitely wants something.

I thought we were cool, Amber.

I side with the one saving my life.

How are we feeling?

A little tired.

Okay, why don't we give the drawing a break

and have a little rest.

I'll rest for half an hour, then I'm getting back at it.

I would never stand in the way of your genius.

So, are you going to spit it out?

You know, I'm actually insulted now.

See if I ever compliment you about anything ever again.

Okay. So. First thing I want to say in my defense,

is this all happened really really quickly.

Okay, you need to tell me what's going on right now.

Okay. So, I got a call this morning.

He was here skiing and he had an accident.

His leg is pretty bad.

And, ah, it also rattled his head a little bit.

It could be concussed.

Who?

They don't want him being bombarded by paparazzi,

so I suggested that if he stayed here

with you in the pediatrics ward over the holidays,

then he'd be off the grid, so to speak.

And his security team says that the pediatrics floor

is the lowest risk in the whole hospital.

Which is a feather in our cap.

Who are you talking about?

Hey guys, Prince Alexander here.

I was on the mountain today and I ran into a spot...

You've got to be kidding.

But don't worry, I'm being taken care of...

-No! -What?

But I'm your brother.

Half brother.

Tash, what's the problem?

There's no problem. You asked I said no.

He's my friend from school. Don't make me beg.

Yeah, he's your friend from school.

He was never mine.

Oh, is that what this is? Tash, that was years ago.

I don't know what you're talking about.

The Prince Alexander I remember was a spoiled,

overindulged brat, and quite frankly I have

enough children to deal with.

I don't need another one added to the mix.

It's nothing personal.

Yeah, alright.

I'm sorry. What?

Look, I'm not saying you don't have a reason to be mad

but this could be a good chance to let bygones be bygones.

Do not try to put that man-child in my care.

Doctor Miller. A word please.

Of course.

I just wanted to tell you the good news.

I just came from a meeting, and the board has just approved

the entire budget for all your treatment requests.

Really?

No.

Unfortunately, your department is very far down the list.

And the Hospital CEO, he's decided he's going to woo

some very prominent heart specialists.

The board seems to be very taken with the idea.

Dr. Gonzalez, these treatments are very important.

I was extremely thorough hoping the board

would at least consider...

Sorry. But their hearts are in a different place.

Doctor! I'm already stretched thin as it is.

Those kids are counting on us.

It's true. It's bare bones.

Sorry. I don't believe we've met.

What was your name again? Doctor...?

Nurse, actually. It's Nurse Jeff.

Well Nurse Jeff.

If Nurse Jeff says we need it, then clearly I stand corrected.

Can I borrow a pen?

I seemed to have left mine in my Chief of Medicine office.

I'm just trying to help.

You know what then champ.

When I need to place an order for scrubs,

I'll take myself down to the coffee station

and I'll get your opinion then. Okee dokee?

I know you're making fun of me,

but I actually could be very helpful with that.

Doctor. I really do need this. Please.

And I need a doctor who knows what her job is.

Find a way to solve both problems.

Dr. Gonzalez!

Uh, Dr. Miller was just telling me about a possible solution.

What are you doing?

Is that right, nurse?

Well please don't keep me in suspense because

clearly whatever it is you're about to say is far

more important than saving lives.

Right. Well, as it happens,

Dr. Miller is friends with Prince Alexander.

They went to boarding school together.

Stop. It. Immediately.

Is that so?

-I'm... -It is!

It is, Dr. Gonzalez.

He was just hurt while skiing and he needs

to go to a hospital.

His security team really like our

hospital's isolated location.

And when Dr. Miller suggested he stay in her

ward over the holidays, so that he could be comforted

by friends, well they got very excited about the

excellent sight lines and the straight forward

guarding against intruders.

And, in return, the Prince has offered a sizable

donation for the inconvenience.

Did he say how sizable?

Uh, sizable enough...

To get Dr. Miller everything she asked for

in her budget request and plenty more.

Oh my. That is very generous.

And this was all your idea, doctor?

Yeah. Yes. Yes.

I told the Prince that as long as we get the

donation for the new equipment, we'd be overjoyed, to have him.

Agreed. Have the King

give me a ring-a-ding, and we'll set it up.

Will do! Probably won't be him specifically,

it may be an underling...

Owww! What?

What? The actual what?

That is the worst thank you I've ever gotten!

Thank you? Are you insane?

I just got everything you need for Amber and Ben!

All you have to do is put aside some teenage girl

issues and put up with my friend who honestly is not

that bad a guy.

Not that bad a guy!

This is the stupidest thing you've ever done.

You think? I've done a lot of stupid things.

(Jeff's phone buzzes)

This is them.

Ah, they're going to need an answer.

Yes, please hold for Nurse Jeff.

Look, I am sorry I did that to you.

I genuinely thought I was helping.

But if you say no, I will respect that,

and I will just tell them it can't work out.

It's your call.

Say yes. But I'm doing this for the kids.

Yeah, of course. Who else would you be doing it for?

I mean who wants the world's most eligible

bachelor in a private room on bed rest?

You're a saint. Honestly. I admire it.

Not ready for jokes just yet. Okay.

Yes, this is Nurse Jeff.

Yeah, I was just about to call you back.

So it looks like everything here is a go!

Oh, actually, the head of pediatrics was wondering

if the Prince still likes a touch of cinnamon in his tea.

No! No!

Great! She's out there stripping some Sri Lankan

cinnamon bark for him right now!

She said she can't wait to see him!

Great. Okay. Bye.

Well, thank you, Doctor. I don't know what to say?

I mean, the whole idea of letting the Prince stay here,

it just sort of hit me.

Now you haven't told anybody about this have you?

Oh no.

Okay good, because the whole point is for the Prince

to remain incognito. Right.

And the key to this working is for everyone to

act like it's a regular Tuesday.

-Uh huh. -Alright?

If I'm being honest with myself, I have nothing to

be worried about right?

I mean sure I was up most of the night but that was unrelated.

I have a lot going on.

Christmas, the kids, taxes are right around the corner.

And I'm not sure what my brother told you.

Yes at boarding school, there was a moment,

a very, very brief one where I had a teensy crush

on someone who would not get off his royal high horse,

so if that's what he told you, it's true.

Did he tell you that?

Ugh, that was so long ago. Look at me now!

I tell you one thing, I am not interested

in that jerk anymore.

I'm sorry. What did you ask me?

What floor do you need?

Right. Six, please.

Thank you.

Do you think Dr. Miller has a crush on the prince?

Big time.

Ah, beautiful morning isn't it?

Is it? Is he here yet?

He is.

Hey, ah, before you go in there...good news!

All of your staff and patients have passed

their security checks.

And there were a few precautions they had to take.

What precautions?

Honestly, barely even noticeable.

Just for security really.

Dr. Miller?

Yes.

Bella Canova, His Royal Highness's personal assistant.

Nice to meet you.

I just wanted to thank you for taking care of our Prince

during this sensitive situation.

I'm happy to help.

We'll be out of your way as much as possible.

I know you have a very important job.

Thank you. I...

I am sorry for the set up.

It comes with the deal, unfortunately.

Yeah, I was going to ask about that...

Well, actually. It looks like they're done!

I should go. Secure a few other things for our Prince.

The plan was just sort of ease you into it, but, ah,

maybe it's best if you just pull it off like a band-aid.

-Ah, Jeff! -Yeah.

What is this?

Look, he's a prince, they have to beef up security.

How are these kids supposed to rest?

Dr. Tasha! Look what one of the king's horsemen left!

Oh! Wow. Cute.

Um, I think it's time to go back to bed now, Ben.

Please? Thank you.

I know. I know. But it's just for a few weeks.

You're right. Where did you put him?

He's in 620. (Jeff's phone beeps)

I put him as far out of your way as possible.

I appreciate that. I guess I should get this over with.

Yes. Yes. No. Let's do that. Definitely.

But first, could you just take a call?

What? With whom?

Oh, just the King wants a quick word.

(chuckles) Yeah alright.

Oh! You meant the actual King. King Edward.

You'd be surprised how many times I get that as

an initial response.

Sorry. Um, your Majesty.

I'm told we've already met. Is that true?

Briefly sir.

Yes, back when I went to boarding school with your son.

Ah, how nice. Knowing Jeffrey, I can assume

you got all the brains in the family.

Always nice to see you, your Majesty.

Well, I suppose first and foremost, I should thank you

for taking such good care of my son.

Though, of course, if he had shown better judgment

he wouldn't have landed there in the first place.

And secondly, I...I need to ask you another favor.

Of course. How can I help?

Well I had hoped, given all the money we've donated,

that my son could enjoy rather a more

private section of the hospital.

So if it's not too much trouble, I'd like you to

relocate the other patients in his wing.

Just for the duration of his stay of course.

With all due respect, sir, I'm afraid that's

completely out of the question.

That's far too stressful for the children.

Plus, some of these kids need to be right here for

their treatment.

Specialized equipment, highly trained staff,

I'm sure you can understand that.

If it's any consolation, I can assure you Alexander

is in no danger of catching anything.

I can't remember the last time anyone said No to me.

I am very sorry.

But this is, this is all a bit more than I expected already.

(big inhale) Alright. Very well then.

I know when I'm beaten.

If you'd like I can look into

finding another room for him, or, ah...

No no no no no.

Never sheathe your sword once you've drawn it, my dear.

Well, Jeffrey, I can assume you'll keep

military watch over my now only heir, to make sure no

more foolish accidents.

You have my word.

Alright, well then. Thank you all again. Good day.

I think that went well.

You do?

Just don't be nervous.

What? I'm not.

Okay, good.

Why'd you say that? Now I'm...thinking about it.

Sorry. You're right. You're right.

We'll just... It's no big...

Are you wearing make-up?

Stop it!

What is he doing?

What are you doing out of bed?

I just went to freshen up.

There are people who can help you move, you know.

-I'm fine. -Alright.

-Hi. -Hello.

Alexander.

Who's this Jeff? One of your latest conquests?

No, um...I'm, I'm...

Tasha, I'm kidding. I would know you anywhere.

Right. Can't forget that humor.

I would get up, but I am...doctor's orders.

(Jeff's pager goes off)

I am getting paged. Good luck you two.

So. What have you been up to?

For the last...What... Fifteen years?

Well, I can see you've become a big fancy doctor.

Cheers, that's great.

Thank you.

Ah, yeah, that's pretty much everything.

Which is both sad and alarming.

What about you? Are you still...

A spoiled royal who trots around the globe,

only concerned about his own needs?

I was going to say playing soccer.

I remember you played a lot of soccer.

-Not presently. -Right.

Okay. We'll do a quick check.

Can you follow my pen?

Temperature.

Great.

Take a deep breath.

And?

And good. Yeah.

Hi there.

Oh, these are our resident snoops. Ben and Amber.

-Hi! -Hello!

Nice to meet you.

Is it true that you're a prince?

It is, yes. I have the crown to prove it.

One of the kids said you were brought here because

you were dying.

Oh. Here I was told it wasn't that serious.

If you die, can I have your crown?

Absolutely. It's yours.

Okay, and on that note, I have to check

the lab results for these two monkeys.

But it was nice seeing you again.

You too.

Come on guys.

So my sister is not going to have bridesmaids at her wedding

but she said I could be a bridesmaid if I felt like it.

Tasha!

You're not even listening to my air quotes.

What did...

Boy that guy's got quite the life.

He's got the girls and the fast cars.

And the girls in the fast cars.

(they both laugh)

Yeah he is quite the charmer.

I wonder what it's like to meet him?

Well, I actually know him.

Or knew him when we went to boarding school together.

Really? The Prince?

Uh huh.

(Rosa almost chokes)

Jeff knows him better than I do.

They were in the same class.

He was only there for a few years, something about

rounding off his international education.

Are they still in touch?

Yeah. Still pretty close, actually.

They lost touch for awhile, but, do you remember

when he lost his brother, Prince Arthur last year?

Yeah. In the military accident.

Yeah. Jeff reached out and they reconnected.

Alec was so close to his brother.

He went through a rough time.

Ahhh! You had a crush on him.

What? No. I didn't. I didn't. Not really.

Okay, fine.

There was this one time that I sort of, asked him

to be my date for the winter formal.

(both) Thank you.

But you asked him on a date?

Well. Kind of.

And?

And nothing.

He was an 18 year old Prince and I was a 16 year old

awkward nobody who thought she was in love with royalty.

It went exactly how you think it went.

He rejected me, I felt stupid.

End of story.

Not, not end of story.

This calls for a sleep over and all of the details.

Check please!

How have you not told me about this?

-I didn't tell you this? -Nooo!

It's not that big of a deal. He's just...

A Prince!

Well, yeah, he's a Prince, but he's...

Check please!

He's my brother's friend. He's arrogant.

He's a Prince! Check!

(Rosa) How are you feeling this morning, princess?

Like there was a pea under my mattress.

I tossed and turned all night.

Thanks for letting me crash.

No problem.

Wow, I'm really late.

Can you call my phone? I can't find it anywhere.

My phone's dead.

But I can look for it after I'm done my coffee.

Thank you! Okay I'll see you later.

Bye.

-Good morning. -Good morning, Dr. Miller.

I trust you had a good night?

It was fine, thank you.

Splendid. Just making sure you and Rosa

got home alright after your little party.

Am I being followed?

No, no. That would be illegal.

Just a guess on my part. I'm very good at guessing things

that involve the Prince's well being.

Well then, he's very lucky to have you.

Ho ho ho ho ho ho... Ugh!

(fight struggling)

Are you alright? What are you thinking?

My apologies Jeffrey.

The security outline clearly states no masks or costumes.

I just wanted to be Santa Claus.

Cannot take any chances.

You're alright aren't you?

Oh yeah. I'm good. I'm good. Just testing you.

(laughs) Just testing you.

And you passed with flying colors. Wouldn't you say?

Great. That's fine.

Well, this is completely insane.

What if the children saw Santa being flipped by

Miss wrestler-of-the-year??

She's just doing her job.

Are you sure you're alright?

Uh huh, uh huh. Yeah. I'm good.

Is it weird that I'm way more attracted to her now?

Where are you going?

I think I need to set my own ground rules with the Prince.

(Alexander) Yes, I understand.

Can you at least give the illusion

of having some trust in me?

Ha! You do realize you're asking this while laying in an

American bed and doing the exact opposite of what's expected?

Actually father, I think this bed was manufactured offshore.

Oh thank goodness!

I was afraid your sarcasm might of lost its edge.

What can I say? I learned from the best.

Alexander, if your brother knew...

I get it! I'm not him.

I'm sorry I disappoint you.

I'm sorry you're stuck with the bad son!

Tell me. Is this the end or the beginning of your tantrum?

Because I have an engagement in an hour and

I need to know if I should reschedule.

I think I'd like to rest now father.

It's a good idea.

See if you sleep off some of your crankiness.

And if you're not in a better mood for my

Christmas charity dinner, please,

don't bother to come.

Unless your plan is to stand out there all day,

I suggest you come in already.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to eavesdrop.

I just need to check you. I'll come back later.

Please. Stay. I'm sorry.

My father and I have been locked in a battle for over a year.

But, that is no excuse.

There are children present and I need to learn to

control my temper. Please accept my apology.

Of course. Fathers can be terrible.

Yours is bad too?

Oh, no. Yours is terrible. Mine is great.

Sorry.

He's under a lot of pressure.

And I'm not making things any easier for him.

Must be hard living up to expectations?

It never used to be.

But now there's added pressure on me

seeing as I'm next in line to the throne.

I was really sorry to hear about your brother.

Thanks.

You know, it's funny, growing up I always hated

the attention showered on Arthur.

Being next in line and all that.

Now I would give anything to go back to being unnoticed.

Well, I suppose the silver lining

is you can do a lot more good.

Now you're a crown prince who's set to be king.

You can help a lot of people.

Hmm.

I guess I should see the glass as half full shouldn't I?

I think I'm still trying to work

the spoiled brat out of my system.

(Tasha laughs)

Look, I still need to make my rounds,

but do you want to come with me?

It might be nice to change the environment.

Yes! Whatever, I'm on board.

Anything that gets me out of this room.

Even if it is in a wheelchair.

You sure your bodyguard will be okay with that?

I'm a grown man who can make his own decisions.

Please disregard the fact that I'm in a child's bed

as I say that.

Clearly, you're a very grown-up man.

I'll get your wheelchair.

And if you're good, I'll get you a juice.

(they both chuckle)

(slurping)

So. I would like to start off by addressing

the elephant in the room.

I'll play along.

I'm not sure what you're talking about though?

I'm worried you might still harbor

a teenage girl crush on me.

Wow!

And, here I was thinking you'd actually matured,

but in one fell swoop, you're still the same

arrogant jerk you always were.

Interesting.

So you're saying you don't think

I'm impossibly handsome and or magnetically charming.

What on Earth would lead you to believe I would say something...

(Rosa) Look. If he's that good looking on TV and

magazine covers he must be even more gorgeous in real life.

(Tasha) Nope, not at all.

-Oh please no. -(chuckles) There's more.

(Rosa) Not at all!

Come on Tash. Give me something here.

(Tasha) Okay. Okay. He's very handsome.

It should be impossible for a man to be that attractive.

(Rosa) Yes! And it drives you nuts.

(Tasha) It does! Ah!

I hate that charm, it's like, he's like a magnet.

No! Like a jet engine.

It just gets sucked right in. It's not fair!

(both laugh)

-(Rosa) He's really hot. -(Tasha) Yeah.

I think the next message is you or your roommate snoring.

I wasn't entirely sure which.

Can I hear you snore so I can compare?

I am so sorry about that.

I was out with my friend Rosa last night and,

I didn't mean any of that stuff.

It's just, yeah, lame, girl talk, you know.

I know.

(beep) It's gone.

Look, I know I handled it poorly in school and I'd

like to apologize if I was rude to you back then.

I wasn't the mature gentleman that you see before you now.

(chuckles) Thank you.

A jet engine, huh?

Uh, um, I don't think that was me that said that.

I think it was probably Rosa.

It sounded like Rosa.

Hey Jeff, do you still need me to take...

anything over to our special patient?

No, I'm sure he's fine.

Oh, but if you have a minute, Tori was due for

a gauze change about half an hour ago.

Sure thing! Equally as good! Urgh!

Keep that up, I'll put you on bedpan duty.

Can you recheck her vitals in about half an hour?

Okay. Great. Thank you.

Ahhh!

Ah, I took off the beard.

Peace offering?

(sniffs and loud swallow)

Ummm, just how I like my coffee.

Exactly like gross, gross tea.

I do not need to defend tea.

Besides that black dreck you call a drink is abysmal.

Oh no. You just haven't had good coffee.

Well maybe you can get me some and make me a believer.

Challenge accepted.

I'm sorry about earlier. I overreacted.

Having already failed the Prince once this week,

I admit to being a little on the aggressive side.

I'm resisting every urge to say something inappropriate.

That's why you and the Prince are friends.

(laughs)

So what's your deal? Boyfriend? Girlfriend? Married?

Secret second family?

You don't waste any time do you?

Hey, you flipped me on my back.

In America, that's second base.

(laughs)

Oh goodness, you do laugh.

I'll spare you the trouble.

I'm married to my job.

Speaking of, I should go check on our Prince.

Ah, yeah.

He's in the cancer treatment center with Tash.

He's out of bed?

Yeah, I think he just wanted a change of scenery.

Inexcusable!

(gags)

Just right in here.

I bet the kids will get a kick out of meeting

a real-life Prince.

Um...Real quick.

What exactly is it they do in here?

Chemotherapy.

They get their drug treatment.

Oh.

Don't worry. You can't catch it.

No of course.

It's just those sad little faces.

Well I don't think they mean to make sad faces.

They're just really sick.

My leg's kind of bothering me.

If it's all the same to you I might just hang here.

Yeah, sure.

-Hey. -Hi.

You're pretty brave doing all this.

Mom says you gotta do what you gotta do.

Smart lady.

Is your mom waiting in your room?

She's working.

We live a couple of hours drive away.

She comes on the weekends though. If she's not working.

Sometimes she works then too.

Well I'm sure she'd be here if she could.

That's why we listen together.

Listen to what?

Mom made a play list, same as hers.

Every day at eleven when I get treatment,

we listen to the songs together.

That way, she's here with me.

That's very cool.

I get surgery next week.

She called me this morning and said she can't get here in time.

But she'll be here the day after.

She told me I could put my favorite song on repeat

to make me feel better about that.

My favourite artist is Genevieve Fisher.

Want to listen?

More than anything.

-Good morning Amber. -Morning.

-How're you feeling? -Good.

Yeah?

Wow, that's beautiful.

Thank you.

Have you been working on that all morning?

-Yeah. -Yeah.

Is he really a prince?

That he is.

Does he live in a castle?

You know what? That's a good question.

You should ask him. Or better yet,

why don't you draw him a picture of a castle and give it to him.

I bet he'd love that.

Am I going to be in the hospital for Christmas?

Yes. You know what that means?

What?

That I get to spend it with you.

Which was all I asked Santa for!

You asked Santa to make me sick for Christmas?

That's dark.

(Tasha laughs)

Well, then I guess you're just going to have to grow up

and become a doctor so we can spend all our holidays together.

(they both giggle)

(all laughing)

Alec's turn.

Truth.

Have you ever kissed a princess to wake her up from a spell?

No, but a princess did kiss a frog once,

which is, of course, how I became a prince.

(all laugh) -Is that real?

No, he's just being silly.

I am not. See, my webbed fingers.

(all laugh)

There you are.

Why aren't you answering your phone?

I left it at home. Why? What's going on?

Get out here.

No, they're going to wreck it!

I promise all of your possessions will be

safe and sound in your new quarters across the hall.

No! Actually, we already talked about this.

I said no.

Yes, I know.

The Prince isn't your first concern,

which is why I spoke to someone

with more authority than you.

Bella, these children do not need to be moved.

This is your father's decision.

He agrees with your security team.

So I have no say in the matter?

Your father's decision stands.

Oh, hello.

It's you.

My name is Melanie.

You can just call me Mel.

I have a cat named Princess.

None of this would have happened if you just

listened to me in the first place.

Okay. It's starting to get a little bit heated.

Excuse me Mel.

I will not be told to stay in bed.

And I will not be responsible for the well-being of a

petulant royal who does not follow the simplest of orders.

You do not give me orders.

Okay, time for an ice cream! Ice cream time!

Come with me. We can go get some ice cream.

You're coming with me. Thank you for your help.

Ice cream. I'm buying!

Dr. Gonzalez, you can't move these kids

just to satisfy the palace.

Dr. Miller I'm sure you remember his Majesty King Edward?

Oh, I like the way that sounds.

Hello again doctor.

I see you went above my head?

No no, my dear.

I merely moved the head out of my way.

Ma'am, I'm going to have to put my foot down on this.

In that case then, congratulations are in order.

For what?

For you. Taking over as Chief of Medicine.

After all, that is who would make a decision like this right?

It's Christmas.

We say 'Happy Holidays', doctor.

You know as well as I do moving these kids causes

them unnecessary stress and jeopardizes their health.

I'm moving them a mere fifty feet away.

I've looked over all of their cases and they'll be fine.

Well fine doesn't cut it when you're running a hospital!

Dr. Miller.

I think everything will run more smoothly for the

rest of the day without your presence.

-Dr. Gonzalez... -Go home...Now.

So where were we, Dr. Gonzalez?

Tasha, please, Let me fix this.

Enough! Okay!

I don't need your help! I don't even want it!

I got stuck with you!

I've never met anyone more spoiled!

Ah. Stupid, stupid thing.

(knock at door) -I'm not here.

(Jeff) If you're not here, I'm just going to do

my usual steal-your-food and leave thing.

What are we looking for?

My phone.

Why didn't you just text me and ask me to call it?

Yeah, I hear it now that I said it.

Over there.

-Thank you. -No problem.

So, you alright?

Sure! If you call being kicked off your own floor alright.

You want to talk about it?

No, not really.

I feel like this is a bit my fault.

Hmm, really?

Good because I feel like it's a lot your fault.

Okay. Now we're talking. Good. Let me have it.

Why did you have to bring him here?

Because he's my friend.

He's already caused so much trouble.

Ah, not to point fingers.

But I believe you were the one who invited him along

to see Ben and Amber, right?

Okay. Yeah. But he could have said no.

That's true.

So, maybe it's a little bit of both of you?

(big sigh) I just really want things to go back to normal.

I don't deal well with these kinds of things.

Actually, to be honest, you kind of do.

You act like the chaos bothers you,

but that's just surface.

You are great under pressure.

Every time things are crazy,

you are right at the front, fixing it.

You yelled at the Chief of Medicine today because you

knew it was the best thing for the kids.

Have you heard anything? Am I fired?

(sighs)

Dr. Gonzalez filed for your dismissal this afternoon.

That's great.

But, as far as I know the paperwork

never make it to the board.

Really? How?

I don't know.

Maybe a gentleman stepped in to help.

He did?

All I know is everyone is expecting you back at work

in the morning.

Can you thank him for me?

No. No I cannot.

But I will be there watching when you have to.

Hey, can I film it?

That could be your Christmas gift to me.

And on that note, you are leaving.

But I just got here!

-Yup. -But...

Thanks for helping me find my phone.

Yeah, no problem. Thanks for the sip of beer.

How's it going with the, ah, your problem?

Oh, terrible thank you for asking!

Yeah. Yesterday I yelled at him in front of everyone

and it turns out he saved my job.

So I have to grovel and present a grand 'thank you'

for helping a mere peasant.

She is not fooling anyone!

No ma'am.

Morning Dr. Tasha.

Good morning.

I see everyone is back to where they belong.

Yeah. Alec yelled at everyone.

He did?

It was cool.

He yelled and everyone did what he said.

Like a king.

A good king never yells.

Although he does request rather loudly.

Good morning doctor.

Good morning.

I ah...

Come on, you're almost going to be late.

Welcome to our Prince and Princess Party!

This is for you, Dr. Tasha.

Oh, thank you.

-Ahem! -Oh thank you Bella.

This is by far the best tea you've ever brought me.

Very funny.

(Jeff laughs)

And this is for you.

Oh sure. Oh, it looks beautiful.

It's for the kids, Bella. It's for the kids.

(unenthusiastically) For the kids.

Is that a real crown?

No. It's made from paper. Fake.

The police get a bit jumpy if I walk around with a real crown.

I don't like that.

Well, I have a real one. It's just at home.

It's very sparkly.

And if you ever come and visit me in my country,

I will give you a private tour of the state jewel collection.

You will? Do you have like alarms and guard dogs?

All of that. And bodyguards.

Cool.

Alexander, I was thinking.

Yes Amber?

Do you have a horse?

If I were a prince, I think I'd have a horse.

I have a wonderful horse. Strong. Fast.

His name is Achilles.

What happened to your leg?

Skiing.

-Ouch. -Yeah.

You know your cast is very clean.

You need messages and pictures on it.

Now that will help you get better.

Well come on!

I can't believe you did all this.

It's wonderful for the kids.

It's wonderful for me.

I get an artistic cast out of it.

I think I owe you an apology.

It's not necessary.

No, it is.

Ever since you got here, I've had a chip on my shoulder.

And I've carried it around for a long time,

wanting to tell that eighteen-year-old jerk

what I thought of him.

Right. Not a phenomenal apology so far.

(laughs)

But honestly, the man that showed up has been nothing

but pleasant, kind, and clearly very thoughtful.

So I'm truly sorry.

And I'd like to start over, if you could forgive me.

I would love that.

Alexander.

Natasha.

(Tasha giggles)

Can you guys just start one more time.

I missed the very beginning of the apology

that you had to do.

-Oh! No? -No.

That was pretty good.

-Is that true? -Uh huh.

Honest and true, Ben.

I'll be right there beside you the whole time.

Okay.

And Jeff will be here waiting for you as soon as you wake up.

What about Alec?

Ah, the Prince is great at a lot of things

but I think this sort of thing is...

-Benny! -Alec!

You came!

Of course! I'm not going to miss my best friend's big day!

Thanks.

I also found this lady stumbling around the halls.

Said you might like to see her?

Mom? Mom!

Oh mom, I can't believe you're here!

Me neither, Ben.

You are going to do so great in there.

That was...

the kindest gift you could have given that family.

It was nothing.

The boy needed his mom and I have a helicopter.

You're a good man.

Ah, I almost forgot. I have a small, ah ...

Genevieve Fisher! Our favourite singer.

-No way! -I love your music!

My mom and I listen to it together every day.

You're very kind.

I tell you what, you go through there

and beat this thing up, and I'll stick around

and we'll sing some songs together tonight.

What do you say?

Yes!

Come on Dr. Tasha.

You got it.

Did you hear that Mom?

I did! Isn't that incredible?

Don't worry. He's in good hands.

It was the least I could do.

Hey...You don't feel like singing?

Not right now.

I hear Ben did really well in there.

He did. He should be going home soon.

He's a great little patient.

He's not a patient.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm not too sure what the technical term is.

A patient is some guy who stumbles into the ER,

needs a few stitches. Fix him up.

I wouldn't recognize him an hour later.

It's remarkable. What you do for them.

They have to go through so much.

Tests, chemo, radiation, surgery.

They're constantly being poked at.

Plus being away from their homes, friends, families.

It can be painful. And lonely.

They're little. But they're strong.

Stronger than we are, maybe.

They shouldn't have to be.

(Tasha sobs)

So...Big day today, huh?

Yup. Some of our patients will be heading home.

Yeah. The kids will be crushed.

Ah yes. The kids. They got pretty attached?

They did. He's really grown on them.

I can imagine.

Spending so much time together, one on one.

I could see how you, I mean, they would get so attached.

Well, you never know.

Maybe the kids will see him again.

I suppose it's possible.

-It is Christmas, right? -Uh huh.

She thinks he's staying for her?

She's dreaming.

(both laugh)

Merry Christmas.

Good morning. You wanted to see me.

I'm wanted to say thanks.

For yelling at me in Pediatrics.

No no no. I think it's safe to say that I have been

so far up on my high horse that I forgot

the important work that we all do here.

So after our little tiff, I went off and did something

that I should have done a long time ago.

What's that?

My job.

I've been combing through your budgets.

Admittedly, to find an example of your

mismanagement when instead all I could find were

examples of my terrible leadership.

I've resubmitted your proposal.

And I appreciate all of the hard work that you

have done for these patients.

You are an excellent doctor, Natasha.

And I'm sorry I haven't found the time to say that more often.

Thank you.

Now, I understand that pediatrics is spending

a little too much on teddy bears.

(Tasha laughs)

How about we talk about that?

Yes doctor.

And this one is for you.

-Don't crush it. -I'm not!

Can you pass the tape.

Hey guys, everything good?

Yup.

Super good. All good. Good.

(whispers) Stop saying good.

Well then. Squires!

I present to you... Prince Alexander!

(trumpet sounds, cheering)

Thank you, thank you!

This is all so very kind of you.

No more crutches!

(everyone claps and cheers)

And although me and my new walking cast are being

discharged today, I will hold a very special place

in my heart for all of you.

Hopefully some more than others?

Absolutely.

I was so close.

Awwww. No. You totally weren't.

-Shut up! -Okay.

Here. We made this for you so you'll remember us.

My mom made that for you to say thanks.

So you can listen to the songs with us at eleven.

Every day at eleven. You got it pal.

What's this?

Wow! That is a handsome man.

Clearly this is a drawing of the most handsome man in the world.

No. It's not a handsome man, it's you!

In your castle.

Thank you. I love it!

I'm going to hang it my tower next to my dragon.

Ho ho ho! Who wants presents?

(laughing)

That was really sweet.

What's this?

I made it with Amber.

She wanted to make a fancy invitation for a fancy event.

Therefore the multi-colored glitter.

(Tasha chuckles)

I would be honored if you would accompany me

to my family's annual Christmas charity dinner.

I warn you, my father will be flying in.

Last year he hosted it in Venice.

This year it is here because my broken leg can't travel too far.

Please say you'll accompany me?

Really? Why would you want to bring me?

Because I think you're brilliant.

And beautiful.

And you have the kindest heart of any woman I've ever met.

There is no other woman like you.

Back then, we were too young and innocent, and I walked away.

But I can't walk away this time.

(kiss)

Is that a yes?

Yeah. That's a yes.

Thanks Jeff.

Who's Jeff?

Whoever he is, I hope somebody got him

that watch that he keeps asking for.

Well, probably not.

Ah, tell me you're not sad on Christmas.

No. I'm just not good with change, is all.

(laughing) This is very sweet.

Yeah. Change can be hard.

But, it always leads to new beginnings.

Here. Maybe this will cheer you up.

Thank you.

Wow, you really know what a woman wants.

Santa's workshop was out of throwing stars.

Here, open the gate.

Coffee of the month?

Yeah. Not just any coffee.

Exotic coffees from around the world.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas Jeff.

Can you dance yet Alec?

Well, there's only one way to find out!

-Come on Dr. Tasha! -(laughing) Okay.

I'm just going to check to see who's here.

Oh dancing! You want to...

No!

Hi there!

Sorry we were just having a little celebration in there.

Oh, how wonderful, charming.

We're just in between visiting hours,

Oh, that's quite alright, I'm actually here to see my fiancé.

Fiancé?

Oh, hello darling.

Miranda? What are you doing here?

Oh, how I've missed you.

I was worried that you wouldn't be healthy

in time for the Christmas dinner.

Tasha wait! Please.

Please, I can explain!

(bangs on door) Damn it!

You cannot take the stairs! Your leg!

I'm fine!

Tasha please! I can explain! Tasha!

Augh! Ah! My leg!

I think I've injured it again.

I'm here because I'm bound by my ethics.

Please, I can explain...

No! I'm only here as a doctor.

I don't want to talk about you or her, or anything else.

Is that clear?

Crystal.

Where does it hurt.

Ah! Yeah! Right there. Right there.

It doesn't feel like there's any swelling.

Okay.

Was this your plan all along?

To humiliate me?

To finish off what you started when we were kids?

-No, I never... -I trusted you!

You made me hate myself for believing you'd changed!

For allowing myself to fall for...

I love you.

What?

You heard what I said.

That doesn't fix anything.

You have a fiancée up there.

No, I don't.

That beautiful woman, she's...

Doesn't hold a candle to you.

Okay. I'm listening.

She's a princess.

And yes, her family and possibly even mine would like

to see us married because she was my brother's fiancée.

We've become friends since his death.

But I've told her a dozen times I won't be marrying her.

If you're lying, I swear...

I'm not.

The only thing I've lied to you about was my leg.

Right now.

So you didn't actually just hurt yourself right now?

My bum hurt a little when I intentionally fell.

(Tasha laughs)

(big sigh)

Will you still be my date?

Yes.

One more present to deliver.

Courtesy of the Prince.

Wow!

So? What do you think?

Too much? Yeah, you're right.

I'm going to cancel. I can't do this.

Tash, you look amazing.

-Really -Yeah.

Like a real princess.

Princess?

Yeah! Princess face.

You have to do that all night.

-I will! -Okay good.

(they both laugh)

(elevator bell)

I guess that's my ride.

It is? You've got to get changed.

Ah, in the storage closet like a princess would.

(they both laugh)

-Okay. -Alright.

I promise I'd say something witty right now

if I wasn't so stunned.

You kind of just did.

I guess I did, didn't I?

(kiss)

Shall we?

Don't be nervous. I promise this will be fun.

It's easy for you to say. You do this all the time.

I swear. This is just a little dinner.

Mostly friends and family.

Here we are.

Oh my goodness.

Alexander!

(kisses)

I'm sorry. My English is not so good.

Back at your hospital, I...misspoke.

Oh, your English is wonderful.

And you look incredible tonight.

Spasibo. I love your dress.

Who designed it for you?

It looks like you didn't even have to think about it.

Oh, good eye. I didn't, actually.

It was a gift.

If you'll excuse us, Princess.

Of course.

That was impressive.

I can be. Once in a while.

Shall I get us a drink?

I thought you said this was a small dinner?

It is?

Alec, that woman's necklace alone could fund

a year's treatment for my kids.

If you like it, I'll get it for you, right now.

-No, stop! -I can get anything I want.

No. Come on.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

his Majesty King Edward the Third of San Savarre.

Welcome. Welcome one and all.

And thank you for joining us on such a joyous occasion.

I'd also like to congratulate my son

on managing to attend this evening's dinner

without having any further accidents. (chuckles)

(polite chuckles from crowd)

So. Enjoy!

Shall we?

Why not?

Your Majesty, may I introduce...

Ah, this time I do remember her.

It's lovely to see you again, your Majesty.

And I must thank you for taking such wonderful care

of my son while he interrupted your very important work.

Thank you father, for painting me in such a positive light.

Was that my Christmas present this year?

Dr. Miller, would you mind terribly if I borrowed my son

to chastise him in private where I can speak freely?

No, not at all. I'll go powder my nose.

(kiss)

Alexander.

(big sigh, to herself) Powder my nose?

Well Alexander, you surely seem healthy again.

-Yes, father. I'm well. -Good.

Before you start in on me, you should know

that I feel ready to start my duties.

I'm proud of all the good you bring to people

through your charities, and I want to start

setting up my own.

You always said our money was only worth something

when we use it to help others.

Your own charities?

But for years our family supported the royal charities.

Excellent effort, father.

But I see right through you.

I know you're happy that I'm ready to start my duty.

Happy? Yes I am.

But not just that.

Bella told me how you were with the children in the hospital.

I know for the last few weeks I've seen how you've

grown to become, not just a worthy heir to the throne,

but a truly remarkable young man.

I'm proud of you, Alexander.

You should see this place. It's insane!

Could you bring me a doggy bag?

What? No, I'm not doing that!

Nobody will know. Just put a bunch of

tiger shrimp in your purse.

And if there's cocktail sauce, put it into

a contact lens case, or something.

(laughs) Why did I call you?

Because you love me.

I question that.

I say the whole thing is another one of Alexander's

elaborate stunts to get Miranda jealous.

I heard she's a doctor.

Oh please. She's an American doctor.

She may as well be a janitor.

No, Alexander will do what he always does.

Slum around with his new little plaything

just to make the family mad,

and then settle down with his own kind.

Fingers crossed.

Come on. We need to log a little face time.

I don't think they knew it was you.

Yeah, I think you're right.

Those two talk behind everyone's backs.

Really?

And I suppose you wouldn't do that to me, right?

No. Never.

I will happily tell it to your face

that you don't belong here.

Let me tell you what.

You Americans like to make deals.

So, I'll make you one.

Look around.

If you can point out one person,

just one person in this entire party who's like you,

I will leave Alexander alone forever.

Even the help is more accustomed to us.

You can play dress up all you like, but even you know,

inside your heart, that you're not one of us.

You know what? You're right...

I don't belong here.

See?

But I'm glad.

Because all I see are a bunch of people

patting themselves on the back for being lucky.

Lucky they were born into wealth.

I earned who I am.

Can you arrange to get me home, please?

Of course.

Right this way, ma'am.

Is everything alright?

I'm sorry, ma'am. I'm told we're to wait here.

What? Whoever told you that, tell them no.

I'm afraid this is not someone I can say no to.

Thank you, Roger.

So...That's all you've got?

I'm not like those people in there.

And I'm not going to change just to fit in.

No, you're absolutely right.

You're not like those people in there.

You have more breeding and intelligence

than the lot of them put together.

Please.

I've seen Alexander grow up

a great deal over the last few weeks.

And I believe that's your influence.

I didn't even think you liked me?

Not like you?

Who do you think saved your job when you called out your boss?

That was you?

Well now the crown never intervenes but it has been

known on occasion to lend clarity to a situation.

Thank you for that.

You know, the woman I saw in the hospital that day

had a certain elegance.

She told me no. She told her boss no.

And just now, I believe I saw her tell a certain princess no.

(chuckles) Oh, yes.

I know a gold digging fortune hunter when I see one.

Which is why your giving up now is so disappointing.

See I had you pegged as someone who would go the distance.

Even though I'm not from your world?

Oh please.

No one talks about those born into my world.

They only talk about those exceptional enough to break in.

Do you love my son?

I do.

You know, there's a long history of monarchs

choosing crown over heart.

I'd like to believe that my heart is not so cold

that it can't recognize that the two of you belong together.

Thank you.

Thank me by making my son happy.

Roger!

Ma'am.

Heading back inside?

No. No no no no. Heavens no.

Bring the car around and take me where I can get

a nice juicy cheeseburger.

Of course.

I wonder where she could have gotten to?

You know, it is possible that she left.

I think I heard her crying saying that she didn't belong.

That doesn't sound like Tasha.

Come on. Dance with me.

Hi.

I'll happily tell you to your face...

This is my dance.

There you are.

I love you.

I love all of you with all my heart.

I love your compassion, and your kindness.

And if you'd let me, I'd like to tell you how much

I love you everyday. From now on.

I think I would like that very much.

I love you too.
