All language subtitles for Christmas Waltz - 2020 (720p) - Hallmark

Oh!

That is what I want my wedding
dance to look like.

A little something to fill
your weekend.

- How many files?
- I didn't count.

All right. Well, I'm off to pick
out a wedding cake with David.

Oh, that's a healthy lunch.

If you grab me a celery juice,
I'll bring you back a slice!

Deal!

Oh, hi, Bob!

Avery. How's the Favermann
paperwork coming?

- It's finished.
- Ahead of schedule? Excellent.

It's ready to send in, unless
you want to make any changes?

No, I'm good if you're good.

- Great.
- Great.

- Have a great lunch!
- Thank you!

So, the first one had lemon zest
and raspberry filling,

- and now, which one is this?
- Holiday Forest.

Well, I'm at this cake thing.
Thank you.

Mm. That's pretty yummy.

But I feel like I'm still leaning
towards the Nutcracker one.

David, which one do you like?

..figure that out.

Uh, honey, thumbs up
doesn't work in this situation.

Uh, I gotta go.

- What did I miss?
- Cake choices.

We have Santa and Mrs Claus,

the Nutcracker, or Holiday
Forest.

Oop!

- What?
- Hi.

- I already signed the contract.
- There's a penalty.

- Of course, I can do that.
- OK, I'll call you back.

All right, bye.

You're a very busy couple!

Very!

And the wedding is December 20?

- Yep.
- 24 days.

It's coming up quick.

We wanted a storybook
Christmas wedding.

It's my childhood dream come
true.

How wonderful!

So, which cake fits your vision
for the big day?

Oh, er... You pick.

Uh...

You know what, let's go with
the Nutcracker one.

Excellent choice.

Oh, could I have a piece to go?

- Yeah, we'll wrap one up for you.
- Thank you.

I'm glad we scheduled this
during our lunch breaks

so we could do this together

Hey, you took a business call
too.

David, we're choosing
our wedding cake

and you hardly even looked
at them.

You do like the Nutcracker cake,
right?

It was a little glittery. I thought
the forest one was more subtle.

Well, why didn't you say
something?

Do you want to go back in
and change it?

No, no - it's fine.

Are you OK today?
You just seem edgy.

Sorry, yeah.
Something came up at the office.

I wanted to talk to you about it,

- but I gotta run back to work.
- Yeah, me too.

Oh, did you book the ballroom
lessons for the wedding dance?

- Uh...
- You forgot.

Can we talk about it tonight?

Yeah - don't worry.
I'll take care of it.

OK, I gotta go.
I'll see you at dinner.

How was the cake?

You tell me!

Oh, the florist called,

asked if they could deliver
the bridal bouquet samples

- to your apartment this weekend.
- Yeah, that's fine.

Can you ask my doorman to bring them
up to my place if I'm not there?

- Sure.
- OK.

I'm gonna enjoy
my three-minute lunch.

OK!

'Hello. Thanks for calling
Flurry Dance Studio.

'If you leave us your name and
number, we'll call you right back.'

Hello?

- Hi!
- ..Hi.

Did you want to buy tickets
to the Christmas Waltz?

Er, that sounds great, but I was
interested in dance lessons

for me and my fiance. You know,
I tried calling a few times,

but no-one answered. Is there
someone I could talk to, or...?

Yeah, you can talk to me!

Oh... OK.

We are having a super mega
Christmas dance series discount.

Oh, wow. And what is that?

So it's ten private lessons
for an amazing low price.

Plus a free half-hour
evaluation!

You know, ten lessons,

I was kinda hoping for something
a little more fast-tracked.

- Maybe two or three at the most?
- I mean, it's your wedding dance.

People are going to be videoing you
and they'll post it everywhere.

- It has to be awesome.
- You're right.

I never thought about that.
It really does need to be special.

Yeah. And special takes lots of
practice.

Oh, I'd listen to him if I were
you.

Really?

Mm. You'll want ten lessons,
minimum.

That will get you maximum results.

It will, huh?

Absolutely! Cos we have the best
teachers in town. Like my mom.

She'll have you dancing like a
pro in no time.

All right, well...

I think you guys have me sold.

You won't be sorry.

- See you later?
- Yeah.

Hey, thanks for the tip.

Pleasure!

Welcome to Flurry Dance!

- Thank you. I'm excited!
- Me too!

You were my first sale!

Hi.

Hey!

- Sorry I'm late.
- It's OK.

So I got the ballroom lessons.

I'm so excited - we start
tomorrow night.

I just sent you the contact.

Avery, um...

I need to talk to you about
something.

Is everything OK? You seem...

You seem kind of serious.

You know how they offered me
that position

of heading up the new
financial branch in Boston?

Yes, and you said you weren't
going to take it.

Well...

I've been rethinking that decision.

David, why would you
be rethinking that now?

I just... I just don't know if
I'll get another shot like this.

It's an opportunity of a
lifetime.

Yeah, but our lives are all
planned out
here, in New York. I can't just

pick up and move to Boston.

You took the job, didn't you?

They're flying me out to Boston
tomorrow,

..and I would have to relocate
shortly after.

And what about our wedding?

We'll just have to... put a pin
in it.

Put a pin in our wedding?

- David, who says that?
- OK, that didn't come out right.

But you have to admit,

you knew all the stuff I had
going on at work, and...

You insisted on setting a date.

Because that's what engaged people do!

And you've always known that
I wanted a Christmas wedding!

I'm just asking if we could
push pause, so...

So that what? So you can decide
if you actually want to marry me?

Did you take the job
to get out of the wedding?

Avery, not get out of it.

Just table it.

Right.

Yeah.

Well, I'm not going to just sit
here while you decide.

So, um...

Yeah, you know what?

I'll make it easy.
Why don't you just, um...

Let's just say the wedding
is off the table.

Excuse me.

"Wishing you and David
a lifetime of happiness."

David just took the job,
no discussion?

No, we discussed it,
but he just changed his mind.

I can't believe he would ask me to
make such a huge shift in my life.

He's always been so
solid and steady.

- I just feel blindsided.
- Of course you do.

I just wish I could've seen it
coming.

Then I could've pre-empted it.

Hey, you can't pre-empt life.
You have to take it as it comes.

And, who knows?

Maybe this change will lead you
to something better.

You made the right decision.

Well, he made it for me.

David and I have a ballroom lesson
in an hour for our wedding dance.

Oh, Avery, this is awful.

- Do you mind if I call and cancel?
- Yeah, go ahead.

'Hello, thanks for calling
Flurry Dance Studio...'

And... voicemail.

Big shocker. I'll just stop by
on my way home.

- Hopefully they give refunds.
- Hey, you're going to be OK.

Of course I will.

I'm here for you.

Thank you.

- You were so good at that!
- Thank you!

- Hello!
- Hi!

- So next week?
- Yes.

Thursday at seven.

Hello.

Oh, hi.

- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
- Oh, you're not.

I'm just waiting for my class.

Are you looking for someone?

Yes, the owner. They never
answer the phone around here,

it's like they've never heard of
a virtual receptionist.

Oh, it's a good idea.
I should look into it.

Wait, you're...?
You're the owner?

You let me think you were a
student.

It was Nicky's first sale.

I wanted to help him out.

Well, unfortunately, I'm here
to, um...

I have to cancel.

It's under Avery and David.

Wedding dance?

Yes... I think we were scheduled
with your wife.

I don't have a wife.

You mean Elina?

She's my head teacher

and probably the closest thing
I have to a sister.

Anyway,

um, we usually ask for
24 hours' notice.

But because you're new,
I'll let it slide this time.

When would you guys
like to reschedule for?

No, I need to cancel the whole
series.

Oh, that's a different story.

May I ask why?

Personal reasons.

There is no wedding, so...

..there is no dance.

You could always keep the
lessons.

You don't need to bring a
partner.

You can dance for yourself.

No, I have a very demanding job
that keeps me super busy,

I don't have extra time in my
life
to dance just for me.

Well, that's a shame.

I think you'd be surprised
how it can lift your spirits.

Not me!

No, dancing doesn't come
naturally.

But you have naturally fluid
movement.

I could tell by the way
you walked into the room.

You're... very observant.

It's my job!

I did actually dance as a kid.

Ahh. So what happened?

I...

I don't know, I-I stopped.

Listen, if you don't want to give
me the refund, I understand, but...

No, no, no, no - you're fine.

But you do know the evaluation
is free?

So... take a chance?

You never know,
you might surprise yourself.

Yeah, I think I, um...

Think I've had enough surprises
lately. Thanks anyway.

OK, you two.

We were all supposed to go
to the Hamptons together,

but it didn't work out.

- Ah, here she is!
- Hi, Mom and Dad!

Hey, sweetie! Darling!

How are you doing?

Thank you so much.

So, any new developments?
Have you spoken to David's
family yet?

No, but I'm sure
they've heard all about it.

Dad, I hope you can get your
deposit back from the Carlisle Hotel?

Well, let's not be hasty.

You know it's quite common
for grooms to get cold feet.

You can talk this out with
David.

We have talked.

Sweetheart, how can we help?

Well, I don't know.

I mean, there was always this
clear path,
you know, for my future.

Getting into a great Ivy League
school,

passing the bar, landing a great
job.

The only thing left was marriage
to a solid guy from a good family.

You'll just have to make a new
plan.

Yeah, but what is that?

Show your dad your new dress!

Look at you, sweetheart!
Isn't she cute?

Do you remember when I danced
when I was little?

Why do you ask?

I was just thinking about it.
Why did I stop?

Well, honey,
you weren't exactly a natural.

We thought it best to put you in
other activities that you
excelled at.

Yeah, but I remember it
being so much fun!

I mean, it didn't matter
if I was good.

Yeah, but you had a full plate
with your academic schedule.

You had to make some sacrifices
and it served you well.

Look where you are now!

You're right.

We should order.
Mm!

Hello.

You came back.

I was wondering if I could
redeem
those ten lessons after all.

I thought you were busy.

I'm going to make the time.

Uh...

Sorry - one sec.

Excuse me.

Hi, this is Avery.

Oh, yes, absolutely -
I'll work on that tonight.

OK.

Sorry.

So, when is your next opening?

I mean...

I would have called, but...

No-one answers?

- Right.
- You could leave a message.

It's just not an efficient way
to run a business.

We do just fine, thank you.

Little trade secret -

no dance studio
ever answers their phones,

we're too busy dancing or
teaching.

It's not very efficient.

I can take you in an hour.
Efficient enough for you?

Yes. Yes.

I will grab a coffee
and see you then.

And, travel... Travel the
cha-cha.

Good, good.

Through... and finish.

Great, that's really good.

Just remember the posture
at the end,

the travel was great,
I've got nothing else.

- Thank you.
- You did a really good job.

I'll see you next time.

All right. I've had a double
espresso -

I am wired and ready.

You can't dance in those.

What do you mean? I walk
all over Manhattan in these
shoes.

Well, that's walking, not
dancing.

There should be some practice
shoes in the lost and found.

See if any of those fit you.

You want me to wear
someone's sweaty dance shoes?

You're welcome to put socks on.

Oh, you mean the extra socks
I carry in my clutch?

Here.

You can borrow mine.

Are these clean?

Hm.

Happy now?

- Yes.
- OK.

You want to learn the waltz, I
presume?

- Sure.
- OK, well,

we're going to start with the
box step.

- Oh, I think I remember that.
- Great, good.

OK, well, the follower
starts with the right foot,

back, side, together,
and then left,

side, together.
And repeat. Back...

- Who's the follower?
- You are.

Why am I the follower?

Because I lead.

Why, because you're the guy?

No.

If you want to lead,
I'm fine with that.

Takes longer to learn and
you said you were busy, but...

By all means, lead away.

Uh...

OK, I'm... I'm gonna be
the follower.

Thank you.

Let's try dancing together,
shall we?

Now, take my hand.

OK, I'm just going to
come in here.

Right... Good.
This is your frame, OK?

Keep your frame.

OK?

- And, not too stiff.
- But you said keep my frame.

Yes, but you're like a corpse.

I am not!

Don't argue with the teacher!

Ah! Don't anticipate.

- You don't move until I do.
- OK.

- Head to the left.
- But...

I can't see.

I'm watching for us.

Er, and I'm the one
going backwards!

Do you trust me, or not?

Yes.

It's just that if I'm gonna
do this, I wanna do it well.

And you will.

Again.

Head to the left.

And... One...

- Wait, no...
- Sorry. Wrong...

- It's OK.
- Sorry.

Sorry.

- Whoop!
- Sorry!

- Oh, no, it's fine. Ouch.
- Sorry...

I can't, I'm just... I'm a mess.

I'm rigid when I should be soft,
I'm anticipating, I'm not
waiting...

My head's in the wrong
direction...

It's not about being perfect.

In fact, it has nothing
to do with that at all.

Sorry.

I don't know what I was
expecting.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

Don't do that.

I'm fine, I just need a second.

I'm sorry, I'm just, uh...

Wow, I don't know where
all this emotion is coming from.

Now I'm crying
in front of a total stranger

and I'm just mortified.

I'm gonna go.

Avery, come on.
Don't give up.

I-I don't give up.

On anything. But this is
an elective activity,

and I just...

I don't do failure as a hobby,
so... Thank you so much for trying.

Of course, they're perfect.

Hm!

Abraham's and Associates, please hold.

Avery, I'm so sorry about David.

Thank you, but if you don't mind,
I'd rather not talk about it.

Let's just focus on work.

- Hey.
- Morning, Avery.

Great. Your ten o'clock
is going to be late,

so I moved your conference call
to 11

and Bob asked you to pick out
the company Christmas card.

- The choices are on your desk.
- OK.

Anything else?

Yes.

Would you messenger this to
David
at his office, please?

Done.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas! Yes,

that is the smile I wanted to
see!

What is this?

I'm bringing you some Christmas
cheer!

How did you even get this up
here?!

Your wonderful doorman!

Help me get it inside.

Let's put it by the window.
Whoa!

Ah! It's a really good tree,
Molly.

And I'm an expert -
I was always in charge

of picking out the Christmas
tree
growing up.

Ah, my parents never trusted
us kids to pick out the tree.

Yeah, well, that's one of the
perks that comes along with
being an only child.

- So how was work today?
- A little weird.

Darna's the only one
who knows and...

she's kind of tiptoeing around,
trying to stay out of harm's way.

Smart girl.

- I had her send David's ring back.
- You did?

That's good!
Now you have closure.

Yeah. Yeah, I guess.

Hey, did you manage to get the
refund
from that dance school?

You know what? I decided
to take the lessons anyway.

- I took my first one last night.
- Really? Was it fun?

No, I ended up walking out.

Seriously?
You are going back, right?

Oh, no. No, no, no.
It was an epic fail.

Failing's just a part of
the learning process.

Doesn't mean you have to
throw in the towel.

Do you think I should go back
and apologise?

I don't know, how bad were you?

I was...
You know, a little difficult.

I started bossing him around
and I got frustrated

and upset and I started crying
and it was a mess, I was a mess.

Yeah, an apology sounds like
a good idea.

All right. I mean, it's not like
I know his schedule.

Just pop over there for an
impromptu chat.

Sometimes life can throw you
a curve and there's nothing

you can do about it.
You've just gotta roll with it -

see where it leads.

All right, fine. I'll go there
tomorrow.

OK. Do you want to spot me
while I go up for the crowning
glory?

It's very high!

So close!

Ah! Ta-da!

Roman's in here.

I accidentally borrowed these
the other night.

Oh. I won't tell!

Thanks.

- I'm not interrupting, am I?
- No, no. They're almost done.

Come on! In here.

So amazing!

- It's so good!
- It's beautiful.

It's amazing.

- Avery.
- Hi. Should I wait in the
reception?

- No, we're finished.
- Yeah.

I'm Elina.

Hi, Avery.

That was amazing.

That last move was outrageous!

Yeah, it's like a...

flying pretzel!

It's a work in progress!

So, what brings you back?

Avery said that she's sorry and she
promises that she'll be a better
student.

Ah. Is that true?

Did you say that?

I did.

So, you guys cool?

Nicky, come on - let's go.

Bye.
Bye!

Bye!

Wow, he is a pretty sharp kid.

He is.

Elina's a single mum,
so he spends a lot of time here.

What were you guys rehearsing?
That was beautiful.

Oh, we're dancing in the
Christmas Waltz

- at the Palace Theatre.
- Wow.

That sounds like a big deal.

Yes, it's very prestigious
showcase
for the studio.

Elina was supposed to be dancing
with her partner,

but he decided to retire,

so... I'm stepping in.

Nice.

Nicky and the other kids
have a number, too.

Ahh. That's so sweet.

So?

I'm sorry about my dramatic
departure
the other day.

I was trying something new and
it was more out of my comfort
zone

- than I expected.
- So that's what that was.

- Hey, I'm trying, here!
- I can see that.

Is there anything else?

Yes.

I was wondering if you would
give it another go.

I dunno about that.

But... I-I...

I bought proper ballroom shoes.

Oh, well, that says something -

those are Latin shoes,
but, um...

Oh, that's great. Course they
are.

Come on, then.

OK, so...

Um, let's pick up where we left
off.

- OK?
- Yes.

So...

..here.

Frame.

- Head to the left.
- Mm-hm.

Do you remember,
step back with the right foot,

side, together. OK.

And,

- one, two, three..
- Oh, sorry!

You said right foot, sorry.

- Yep, yep.
- Can we do it again? Thanks.

- You don't move till I move.
- Right.

- Remember?
- Yeah, of course.

- Ready?
- Mm-hm.

And...

One...

OK, I don't think this is
working.

I know, I'm... I'm terrible!

No, no, no, no. It's not you,
you're not horrible. Uh...

I have an idea.

- Do you know how to ice skate?
- No.

Perfect. Change your shoes,
we're going out.

- Wait, out? Where?
- To try a little trust exercise.

So I take it you know how to
skate?

I'm Russian, we're practically
born
on skates.

Wait, I get it - I have to rely
on you so that I don't fall?

Exactly.

Wait, if you're Russian,
why do you have an English
accent?

I have an English accent?

You...

You know what? That's it.

What?

That's it.

Wait, wait, wait. I went to
school in London, I competed in
Blackpool.

Are you going to throw that at
me?

I don't know.

I have to warn you,
I have lightning dancer
reflexes,

so you won't be able to...

Ooooh...

You're in so much trouble.

What? No! No, no, no, no.

No, no, no. No, no, no.

Oh, yes - so much trouble.

Careful, it's a slippery!

Ooh! Oh!

Roman?!

Are you OK, Roman?

Please be OK.

Can't see any abnormal eye
movements.

How's your head feeling?

It, um... It hurts.

Not surprising, given the size
of the bump on your noggin.

How's your vision? Any
blurriness?

- Seeing any stars?
- No.

What's your name?

Roman Davidov.

How does the rest of your body
feel?

Fine.

Good. Pull my finger.

Er...

Bad joke. Just give it a little
squeeze.

And other hand. All right.

Let's get you up
and see how your balance is.

OK. Thank you.

Whoa...

Um...

I seem to have forgotten how to
stand.

Please don't tell anyone.
I'm supposed to be

- a ballroom champion.
- Your balance should return.

I'll let you go as long as your wife
promises to keep an eye on you.

Oh, that's me!

Yeah! They would only let
immediate family in here.

- Oh.
- I won't let him out of my sight.

I suggest waking him up
after about six hours or so.

Ask him a few questions.
If he's not slurring,

he's good to resume normal
activities by this time tomorrow.

OK. All right, then.

- Then let's... Let's go home, Roman.
- Oh, anything you say, honey.

Thanks, Doctor. Stay in touch.

Where do we live?

Brooklyn.

Aw, what a cute place you have.

Thank you. Um, it's a bit of a
mess,

I wasn't expecting company.

It's OK.

Are... Are you gonna be OK?

- How are you feeling?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

Fine. Just...

I know Elina has to take care
of Nicky,

but do you have someone else

you could call to keep an eye on
you, like a friend, or a...?

- Friend?
- Yeah.

Or a...

Are you asking me
if you I have a girlfriend?

Yeah, no. I mean,

not like that.

I don't have a girlfriend.

Oh... OK, well, the doctor said
that you needed to be closely
monitored,

so I will, um... come back
first thing in the morning

- and check on you.
- No, that really isn't
necessary.

If you don't wake up,

who's going to teach me how to
dance?

You do know that teaching you to
dance is more painful than a
concussion?

I don't have a comeback for
that. Fine!

- Um, I'm gonna...
- Sure.

I... thank you, again.

I'm sorry about the whole
snowball thing.

I guess that my lightning dancer
reflexes aren't quite what they
used to be.

Well, I hope you get some rest.

Go to bed.

- Night.
- Goodnight.

Thanks.

Roman!

Roman?

Roman?

Hi.

Who are you?

That's not funny.

You look OK.

Wait - what's your name?

You just yelled it three times.

In fact, I'm pretty sure they
heard you in the North Pole.

- Right.
- You know, for a lawyer,

you're not a very good
interrogator.

OK, fine. Who am I, then?

Avery - my wife.

Yes, perfect!

It is very early.

It is. I'm gonna make you a
coffee.

Oh, no.

You're one of those.

What?

A morning person.

Yep!

All right, so I have some eggs,

and I got some power seed rolls,

and I also picked up some
wholewheat pesto flatbread things

because I thought you might seem like
a breakfast wrap kind of a guy?

No.

OK, how about an egg sandwich?

You cook?

- Why do you say it like that?
- I don't know.

I just thought you were more of
a grab-and-go kind of person.

I am,

but what kind of nurse would I
be if I didn't at least feed my
patient?

Hey, so...

do you have a toaster?

Wow, look at this.

I love the reindeer.

Presentation is everything!

I see you found my Christmas
tree.

Oh, I didn't realise it opened.

Is there a story behind this?

There is.

When I was about 11,

that awful age, when insecurity
starts to creep in,

I told my mother that I no
longer wanted to be a dancer.

It wasn't "cool".

Huh.

She didn't challenge me,

but on Christmas Day,

she gave me this.

And she said, "These are very
special".

No two are alike.

Just like us.

And we all have our hopes and
dreams...

..and with those come the worry

about what path to take.

But all you have to do

is look deep inside and ask...

.. "Who do you want to be?"

And you didn't quit dance.

No.

See, my mother knew

that I had to work it out for
myself.

I love this little tree.

I do, too.

- Oh...

Oh.

Um... it's a little charred..

Um...

Thank you.

- Don't get too excited.
- No, this is very kind of you.

Good!

Crunchy...

I think I overcooked the egg a
little bit.
I...

Yeah, sorry.

Looks terrible.

Could you just...

Could you just walk for me,
please, so I can get to work?

But I'm eating.

No, you really don't have to eat
it.

Just... Just walk.

Go ahead.

No, can you just...

Can you walk normally?

You are impossible!

OK, fine - you pass
the balance test.

Hurrah!

OK...

Should we reschedule my lesson
tonight?

Absolutely not.

We are dancing.

OK.

Avery, thank you. This was very
kind.

You're welcome.

See you later.

- Ah! Perfect timing.
- Fancy

Indeed.

Good class, you guys.

Hey, just a little bit more work
on those rumba walks!

There you two are! Roman,

I'm mad at you. What were you
thinking, goofing around on an icy
sidewalk?

We have a big show in a couple
of weeks.

I'm fine, thank you for... Ow!

That is a big lump.

Yeah, keep poking it - that'll
help.

Don't be such a baby!

- Well, stop touching me!
- It was my fault.

No, it wasn't your fault.
Entirely.

OK,

ahem, we've got work to do.

Bye, Elina.

Oh, um...

This is for you.

You didn't have to do that.

It's an early Christmas present.

A thank-you for being so kind.

She reminds me of you.

Pretty, bright-eyed,

and her smile is slightly
mischievous.

I love it.

Thank you.

Are you ready?

Yes.

But are you sure you're able
to dance?

I think I can handle a slow one.

Don't look down.

I'm here for you.

I saw that.

- Sorry!
- Hold on a second.

Now it's harder to see your
feet.

Ah, very clever.

Two thumbs up on the cocoa card,
Avery.

Yeah, everyone
seems to be enjoying it!

Bob - this is for you.

Thanks, this is very jolly.

I thought the office could use
a little Christmas cheer.

Well, I'm about to add to your
cheer.

I want to put you on the Allegro
account.

Really?

That's, that's fantastic.

Congratulations!

Thank you. Thank you so much.

- This is big, so...
- I won't let you down.

And we need it done right after
Christmas.

You got it.

- Frank, can we go over that
amendment?
- Yep.

Coming now.

- Congratulations on the account.
- Thank you!

- Oh, sorry...

Roman, hi.

Hello. Not disturbing you, am I?

'No, not at all.'

I was just seeing if you were
free this weekend?

Um, you know, I'm not sure.

Well, my parents have heard
about the angel

'who nursed their son back to
life...'

Well, I wouldn't go that far!

'Um, anyway, '

they're having a gathering at
their house this weekend

and they've asked me to invite
you.

That's so sweet -

I wouldn't want to intrude,
though.

Oh, no, it's a...

It's a Christmas party, so...

- It's ready for signatures.
- Oh, thank you so much.

- Sounds like you're busy.
- Could I look at my schedule

and let you know tomorrow?

Sure, yeah.

OK.

Wait a minute, you said you'd
check
your schedule?

- But you know you're available!
- I know, but I'm not,
emotionally.

Oh! Is it a date?

No. No, no. No, it's only very
casual.

- Then what's the problem?
- I don't know.

You're overthinking it!

It's a Christmas party. Just go
meet the family, have a good
time.

Yeah, but I'm not used to big,
social family gatherings.

Avery, I know this has been a
tough time,

but Roman sounds like a nice
guy.

Go and spend a festive evening
with some new people.

It doesn't have to be any more
than that.

Yeah. I mean, I guess you're
right.

So you'll go?

Yes! Yes, I'll go.

Hi, can I get a peppermint
latte, please?

Me too.

Ah!

There she is.

My star student.

I brought you a gingerbread
cookie.

- Oh!
- I have to confess,

I was gonna eat it,

- but I changed my mind.
- Very Christmassy.

Thank you.

You know, I wanted to talk to
you
about your invitation.

Oh, look, I know you're busy.

It's fine.

No, I was gonna say that...

I'd love to come.

Really?

Yeah, I think it'd be really fun
to meet your family.

Well, that's great. OK.

Remind me what lesson we're on?

Uh, this is my fourth.

OK.

How would you feel about
learning
some new patterns?

New? No, I can barely keep up
with what you've given me.

- What are you afraid of,
exactly?
- I don't know.

OK. Baby steps.

Let's begin with what you know,

but with a different combination
-

in and out of it. OK?

Uh-huh.

Good, good. Don't anticipate.

And...

One and two - that's it, yes.

Oh!

Hi, Bob.

RO I'm liking the new partner.

So am I!

RO Back up... That's it.

Great.

AVERY: Whoa... Oh, wow!

Um... Excuse me, young man...

All right, all right,
Baryshnikov calm down, please!

- Impressive!
- OK!

When am I learning that?

Never!

Fantastic. You are getting
better and better.

Thank you, Coach.

Are you still on for my family's
party tonight?

Yes, 7.00!

Fantastic. I have to warn you,

they can be a little loud.

It's gonna be fine.

Yeah.

We saw three ships come
sailing in

On Christmas day
On Christmas Day...

Merry Christmas!

Yes, Merry Christmas!

Wow!

Welcome to the Davidov family p

Whoa! This little monkey here,

is my nephew.

And over there is my nieces and
nephew, down there,

that's the extended family -

oh, and over there,

that's my father on the accordion.
And my brother playing the mandolin.

Merry Christmas, Avery!

Hi, Merry Christmas!

Let's get you washed up.
Sorry, it's a bit crazy!

- Come on.
- Avery!

Hey, how you doing, Nicky?
What's going on?

It's 13 days till Christmas!

Come on, guys - follow me!

- Someone's a bit excited.
- I can tell!

So do your nieces and nephews
also dance?

Uh, no. It's too far a commute
for them to get to Manhattan.

I have been thinking about
opening a dance studio here in
Brighton Beach, though.

Oh, that's such a nice idea.

Yeah, I have two teachers ready
to go,

with a built-in client list, and
I have an investor interested,

but he wants to see a business
plan and...

Oh, never mind.

You know I could help you with
that.

Thank you.

Er, red or white?

White, please.

I mean, it's a lot of stuff

and... I'm an artist.

Expanding the business
is a whole other ball game.

I'm sensing this is definitely
a step out of your comfort zone.

- Is it... is it possible you're...?
- What?

Are you afraid?

Me? No.

Don't look at me like that!

Here.

To our health.

Cheers.

Mm, come on - my mother wants to
meet you.

Oh, here.

Just through there, to the
kitchen.

Mama!

Roman!

This is Avery.

Hi, Avery!

So you are the angel who
took such good care of my boy!

Oh, it was nothing. These are
for you.

- They're beautiful!
- Can I help you do something?

Oh, yes - come. Come, come.

You can stir.

I'm really not a very good
cook...

Just go with it.

You'll be fine.

Mama, what do you need me to do?

- Turn the meatballs.
- Got it.

OK. Try the sauce.

Mm.

Oh, wow.

Yum!

She loves your sauce, Mama!

Mm-hm!

If you're nice to me,
I'll sneak you the recipe.

Wow, you would trust me
with your family 's secret
recipe?

- Maybe!
- Oh, Roman, the cookies!

Stand back.

Do you need this?

Yep. No, I got this.

If you come with me...

..over here. Now,

sprinkle them with sugar.

OK. Um...

- There we are.
- Oop!

Sorry!

- Angel wings!
- I'm so sorry!

I may have put a little too
much!

Just give it a good dosing,
it doesn't have to be perfect!

Here.

A reward for a job well done.

- Mm!
- Roman!

- Wow.
- Bring the pot.

The pot? OK.

Mm!

You can bring the cookies.

OK, absolutely. Those are
delicious.

I'll get the other tray.

- Mm, those look good!
- Hey!

It's really nice
that you invited Avery.

She fits in surprisingly well,
don't you think?

I was just thinking that.

Is there something going on
between you two?

No, why?

Maybe there should be.

That was crazy and amazing!

A little bit different
to what you're used to?

- Oh, a lot different!
- Ah!

How many are there in your
family?

It's just me and my parents.

Yeah.

Christmas dinner is always
at Tavern on the Green,

and then we have a quiet
exchange

of ridiculously expensive
presents at their penthouse.

Just the three of you?

Mm.

- You must be close?
- We are.

Just don't feel like they're
particularly thrilled

with me right now,
given the whole wedding fiasco.

So, how are you faring
in that department?

Better.

I guess I'm not feeling like
such a failure.

So that's what
you're afraid of - failing.

What could you possibly fail in,
hm?

Life, work? Dance?

You don't worry about
any of those things?

Are you kidding?

I question and doubt myself
all the time.

What do you say this Christmas
we take a holiday from all of
that?

Hm?

Just...

Live in the moment.

- Huh? Like...
- Yeah.

Like right now,

we have music,

and dance...

..and...

..snow!

Oh, the weather outside
is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since we've no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow

Oh, the fire is slowly dying...

- Whoo!
- Hup!

And my dear
We're still goodbye-ing...

There we go!

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow

Oh, yeah...

Let it snow

Let it snow...

Hup!

Whoa!

Nice moves!

You go!

Baby, let it snow

Let it keep on falling down.

- How much do I owe you, kind
sir?
- That's on the house!

Your carriage, my lady.

I thought evenings like this
only
existed in Christmas musicals.

We can always live
in our own musical.

- Well, goodnight.
- Goodnight.

You seem good.

I am!

So where's this Christmas glow
coming from?

Does it have anything
to do with Roman?!

No, it's too soon for that.
We're just...

We're just friends.

OK, whatever you say.

This looks like your mother.

Oh, that looks exactly like her.
You are good!

So, have you heard from David
at all?

No.

Sorry, I shouldn't
have brought him up.

No, that's OK.
My parents asked the same thing.

How are they doing with all of
this?

We haven't really talked
about it very much,

but I'm making them dinner
this week.

- Oh, you're cooking?
- Yeah.

They're very brave, aren't they?

Hi, I'll take this, please.

- OK.
- All right, Mum's gift done.

Yay! Do we have time
for hot cocoa?

Absolutely! Always time for
cocoa.

- Thanks!
- Thank you so much,

- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas to you.

Hi!

- Hi.
- Christmas shopping?

- Yep!
- I just got word they bumped up

the deadline on the Allegro
contract
to December 18.

Yeah, that's this Friday.

Yeah, I'm just putting it
in my calendar right now.

Are you up for this?

I can bring Frank on
if you need help.

No, no. I've got it.

Are you sure? It's just...
You seem a bit distracted
lately.

I understand you've had a little
hiccup in your personal life.

I...

I did.

But I'm past that, now.

Glad to hear it.

All right.
I'll let you get back to work.

- Hi!
- Hi. I'm sorry I'm late,

- just work stuff.
- Not a problem.

Do me a favour and call
the studio number.

- What?
- Just call the number!

OK.

Hold on. Let's see.

'Flurry Dance Studio.'

Hello, is Roman there?

'He's teaching at the moment,
but I'd be happy to help you.

- 'Would you like to book a...'
- You can hang up.

- You got a virtual
receptionist!
- Yep.

We sold two private lessons

and booked out Friday night's
group cha-cha,

all because of your brilliant
idea.

Oh! I'm brilliant, am I?

Definitely.

So, what's next?

What do you mean?

With your plans for
the Brighton Beach studio?

You're really going to hold me
to that, aren't you?

Yes. You pushed me with my
dance,
so it's only fair.

Have you looked at studios in
the
area to get an idea of rental
cost?

Not yet.

Well, you should check that out.

I'll think about it.

Come on.

You were a big hit with my
family
at the party, by the way.

Ah, they were amazing!

I have a favour to ask of you.

Elina can't make rehearsals
tonight

and...

I was hoping that you

would go through
the Christmas Waltz number with
me.

Wait, do you...
You really think I can handle
that?

Of course. You know
most of the steps anyway

and it would really help me.

In exchange, I can offer you

four wonderful seats
to come and see our show.

It's on December 20.

I hope you're available.

December 20.

What is it?

It was supposed to be
my wedding day.

I didn't know, I'm sorry.

No, how could you have known
that?

Turns out I'm totally free.

And I would love it.

In fact, this is a really nice
exchange. Thank you.

Are you ready to try the number?

Yes.

This is a show dance,

so, er...

You can look at me.

You said I should look to the
left.

You don't have to
when you're telling a story.

And what is the story?

We can write it together.

Great...

Pull back.

Keep out.

And break. Keep going.

Keep going with the arms. OK.

Yeah, that's great.

Down...

Out and then lean out.

I get you back - back in...

Like that...

Yes.

No.

"Reach my..."

This isn't working.

Everything good?

Yeah!

Yeah, I was just, um...

I mean, I have three more days
until the deadline, so...

Well,

I'm going home.

Oh, wait - I'm supposed to be
making dinner. I gotta go!

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight!

Sorry about the take-out,
I ran late at work.

I understand. Your career
keeps you busy.

Yeah. It's a good thing Dad's
not here, cos I did promise him

a home-cooked meal.

Oh, I actually think it looks
good.

Oh, did you get my text about
our Christmas dinner
reservation?

Yeah. You know, I wanted
to talk to you about that.

Instead of having dinner
at Tavern on the Green,

again, I was hoping

maybe we could do
something different?

Oh? What do you have in mind?

I don't know, something fun,

something with live music
or dancing.

Don't you get enough dancing
with all those lessons

that you're taking? Besides,

you know how your father feels
about loud music.

I know, but I just thought
we could mix it up a little.

OK, how about this?

Let's make a deal.

We'll do dinner
at Tavern on the Green IF

you guys will come with me
Sunday night

to Roman's Christmas Waltz show.

A waltz show?

It'll be a fun night at the
theatre.

Let me discuss it with your
father and I'll get back to you.

- You promise?
- Yes.

It'll be nice to break out
and try something new.

Oh - soy sauce.

You seem awfully busy this
holiday.

How are you fitting this all in?

I mean, it's hectic,
but I'm figuring it out.

Well, don't lose sight of the
future
that you worked so hard for,
honey.

That's all we ask.

I'm not, I promise.

All right, let's eat.

Looks good.

- Smells good.
- Yeah.

Shall I put her in Snow Mode?

Nope!

What about Off-Road Mode?

Nah.

Sport Mode it is.

Let's see what this baby can do.

Or... we could check out that
farmers market?

No!

You know what?

I'll be in Chill Mode...

if anyone needs me.

Hey!

What's all this about?

Well, I'm following your advice

and I'm taking a leap
into the unknown,

starting with spaces to rent
for my dance studio expansion.

That's so great.

See? I said it.
I'm facing my fears.

This building is the first
contender. It's a pretty cool
space,

and the price is right
so I wanted you

to be here to see it,
as it was your idea.

No, no, no, no - this is all
you.

I just want to see you
realise your dream.

I'm also working on
my business plan.

Do you have it with you?

Later.

Let's see the space first.

OK?

So right now, they're using it
for pop-up events -

they're having an office
Christmas party in here
tomorrow.

But wait till you see this.

This is magical.

Do you know what?

This floor's pretty good!

You want to try it out?

Absolutely!

You're getting pretty good!

Thank you!

At least I haven't stepped
on your feet in the last week.

- Let's try the flying pretzel.
- What?!

Come on, I'm taking a risk here!

Oh, really? Are you trying
to out-negotiate me?

I am a lawyer, remember.

Come on, just remember
to kick your right leg. Ready?

No!

- No!
- Ah!

I'm so sorry!

- Are you OK?!
- Uh-huh.

I wasn't ready, you said no!

I know, but I changed my mind!

Well, you have to give me a
signal!

Oh, I'm so sorry. I hit your
eye.
Did I poke you in the eye?

- I think you just grazed it.
- OK.

I'm really sorry!

No more dancing - let's...
Let's look at your business
plan.

I didn't mean for you
to help me with that.

No, I want to.

You're just going to change it
all.

Let me see it.

- Bring it here.
- All right.

So go to the second section,
here.

I think Nicky might have been
playing on the computer.

OK.

Let me just...

I knew you were gonna change it.

No, just a tweak or two.

Hey, Mom!

'Sweetheart!

'Your father and I talked it
over

'and we'd absolutely love to go
to the dance show with you.'

Really? You would?

'Yeah, you're trying something
new

'and we don't want
to discourage that.'

You know what, I'll drop
the tickets off with your
doorman.

'Sounds great.'

- All right. Bye, Mom.
- 'Bye, honey.'

David!

What are you doing here?

I've been trying to reach you.

Um...

Sorry, I didn't realise
my ringer was off.

Yeah, I came by your place
yesterday,

but the doorman said
you were out.

Where were you?

Sorry...

I don't have the right
to ask you that.

I was out helping a friend.

A friend?

He's actually
my ballroom instructor.

I'm taking the dance classes
I got for our wedding dance.

Dance classes?

That's a bit unusual for you.

Not really, I did dance as a
kid.

- I didn't know that.
- David,

this isn't a good time
for a conversation.

I know, I know. I'm sorry
to bother you here.

I mean, what's going on?
I haven't heard from you

in weeks.

I know, I've been trying to just
get things straight in my head.

So you show up at my office
and make this huge display?

Avery...

I am here because I want
to fix things with you.

The new branch is set up and
I've asked my boss to let me

commute from New York for a
while.

Oh, so our relationship
is convenient now?

No, it's not like that.

But look, you have to admit,
this does change things a bit.

Right? For the better?

Do you remember what you said
the last time we were together?

It was pretty hurtful.

Believe me, I realise now

what a huge mistake I made.

And I don't blame you at all
for being upset.

I just want to let you know

that I'm here, in New York.

And I want you back in my life,
If you'll have me.

Look, you don't have to answer
me
right now. OK?

But please, will you just
think about it?

Just give me a call
when you're ready to talk. OK?

- You all right?
- Yeah.

Sorry, he just showed up.

He wanted to surprise you.

I hope you're not mad?

No, no, of course not.

Is that for me?

Oh, yes - it's the Flurry Studio
business plan

- you asked me to print out.
- Thank you so much.

I'll leave you to it, then.

OK.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven - keep going!

Three, four, five, six,

seven, eight - looking great!

Five, six, seven, eight,

jump - and in position!

Hold it!

Yes!

Good job!

I will see you

at the theatre, six o'clock
sharp,
don't be late!

Thank you so much!

- Great job, Nicky.
- Thank you, see you later!

That's pretty impressive.

Those kids really seem to be
enjoying themselves.

Oh, they love it.

And it keeps them off their
phones
for a couple of hours.

Can I help you with something?

Oh, we haven't met.

I'm David.

- Avery's David.
- Oh, I see.

And you, uh,

must be her dance teacher?

That's right.

Well, this is a really nice
place
you've got here.

It is the only studio you have,
or...?

For now.

I'm planning on opening another
dance studio in Brighton Beach.

Actually, Avery's helping me
with that.

- Is she?
- Mm-hm.

Huh.

Must be refreshing,

for her to take a break from all
her multimillion dollar deals

to help you with
your little business.

- Sorry, I didn't catch your
name?
- Roman.

I'm not sure what Avery
has told you,

Roman, but I'm back in
Manhattan.

She and I are trying to
work things out.

As you can imagine,

she's a little vulnerable right
now.

I'm just teaching her to dance.

Yeah, well. Those dance lessons
were meant for our wedding.

I'm aware of that.

So I'd really appreciate it
if you didn't complicate things.

Like I said,

we're just dancing.

OK.

I'll, uh... I'll let you
do your thing, then.

Hey, Nicky! How you doing?

- Hey! I'm great.
- Awesome.

- Good job, guys.
- Thank you.

Well done.
I'll see you again next week.

- Yes, you will!
- Absolutely!

That was wonderful.
Roman's great, isn't he?

Roman's the best!

Hello!

Do you have your shoes on?

I do.

Let's get started.

Uh...

This is my last class.

- Yes.
- And I...

would like to sign up for ten
more.

I just...

booked a new couple
in the eight o'clock slot. So,
um...

OK, uh...

What about the seven o'clock?
Or nine o'clock?

I'll... have to check.

What's going on?

I'm sorry, I'm just a little
preoccupied. Um...

The investor wants to check my
work

before he makes a decision,

so he's coming to the show
on Sunday

and it's a lot of pressure
and I'm just... Sorry.

That's amazing!
He's gonna be blown away!

I hope so.

Are you ready?

- OK.
- Yeah.

Head to the left.

But you said this was a...

This is a traditional waltz,

so...

Head to the left.

Silent night

Holy night

All is calm

All is bright

Round...

Head to the left.

..virgin mother and child

Holy infant

So tender and mild...

I can't, I can't...

I'm sorry, I don't... I'm
feeling
kind of lightheaded.

- Do you want some water?
- No, no, no.

It's not that, I'm fine.

Are you leaving?

I'm sorry, I can't dance right
now.

Avery, don't go.

I forgot, I, um...

I looked at your business plan
and I fixed a few things,

so it's ready to present.

Avery, I...

Just saw Bob. He said you
haven't
sent him the Allegro deal.

Oh, no.

Oh, no. Oh, no.
Today is the deadline.

You haven't finished it.

Bob, I'm so sorry,
it's not quite finished yet.

I don't know what to say,
I have no excuse.

I don't need excuses,
I need the executed documents.

And I will have them to you
by this afternoon.

OK.

I'll tell the client we'll have
it
by end of day.

Thank you.

It's going to be fine.

This has never happened to me
before in my life.

How could I let something
this important slip?

I've got to get it together.

I'll grab my laptop - back in a
sec.

Thank you so much, Darna.

I can't believe this.

Bob, I sent you the contract.

OK.

I'll get it out now.

I'm so sorry.

As long as it never happens
again.

Of course.

I'll see you after the New Year.

How was he?

Well, he said,
"I'll see you next year",

so I guess I'm not fired.

That was terrifying.

Yes, it was.

I wanted to give you this.

It's your bonus cheque.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas, Avery.

Merry Christmas.

David, hi.

- Hey.
- Hey!

Busy day?

Huh. I can't even describe it.

Well, I am very happy to see
you.

It's nice to see you, too.

I was afraid the flowers
were a bit much, though.

They were a statement.

Of how I feel about you.

It's just a lot to process.

The whole idea of you being
back.

What have you come up with?

I don't know.

I... Honestly, my head is
spinning.

Well, let me help you get things
back on track, then.

Give us another chance.

You know we make sense together.

All you have to do is say the
word.

Let me give you the storybook
Christmas wedding

you've always dreamt of.

So much has changed.

This whole ballroom thing,

you've been spending a lot
of time with your teacher...

Dance has been a lifesaver.

And Roman has...

He's turned into a very good
friend.

I'm sure he has been.

Especially since he gets
a free lawyer in the process.

What does that mean?

Just that he's pretty clever
for a guy who can't figure out

how to open up
a second dance school!

How do you know about that?

Did you talk to Roman?

I... I stopped by the studio.

And what did you say to him?

- Does it matter?
- Yes, answer the question!

I...

I told him that I was back
in the picture.

You're not back in the picture.

Avery, I did this for us.

No.

You did it for you.

You did it to get what you want.

What you always forget is,

I have a choice in this, too.

Come on.

No.

David, it's not going to work.

I'm sorry, but...

It's over.

Goodbye.

Roman, please answer.

'You've reached
Roman Davidov's voicemail.

'Please go ahead
and leave me a message.

'Many thanks.'

Elina.

Hey!

How did it go with the tailor?

Were you able to get
those tux pants fixed?

'Yes.'

Tux is pressed, fixed,

and ready for showtime.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Really? You don't sound
very excited.

I found out that Avery is back
with her fiance David.

Are you sure?

He came by the studio
to tell me personally.

Are you going to talk to her
about it?

Well...

Nothing to say.

You can't just let this go.

Avery never even said anything
about this.

'How do you know this David
is even telling the truth?'

Well...

It's not my place
to get in the middle.

'Oh...'

Am I still collecting Nicky

- 'on the way to the theatre?'
- Yes, please.

I'll come in straight from
the salon.

- That sounds good.
- Roman...

Maybe just think about what I
said

'about Avery, OK?'

OK.

This is it, Nicky.
The Palace Theatre!

You made it to the big time.

The stage is huge!

You want to try it out?

- Can I?
- Go ahead.

Show-off!

Ahhh!

This is just the beginning,
Nicky.

There are so many wonderful
things
ahead for you, young man.

Come on.

I'll show you to your dressing
room.

Thanks.

Ah! It's snowing like crazy
out there.

Did I go overboard?

Oh, no - you look amazing.

Why aren't you dressed for the
show?

I'm having motivational
problems.

I saw David on Friday.
I broke up with him.

But I thought it was already
over
between you two?

It really is this time.

You know, he went behind my back

and told Roman
we were back together?

And now Roman isn't taking my
calls,
and I...

I just feel like I've messed up
everything.

That's because David's put you
into another tailspin.

You need to take control back.

So, we are going to
the Christmas Waltz show,

it is going to be inspiring
and wonderful,

and you can talk to Roman
afterwards
and explain - he will
understand.

Do you really think he will?

Yes!

But you have to get dressed
right now,

or we're gonna miss the whole
thing.

And you need to wear
something fabulous,

because I am teetering
on the precipice

- of being overdressed, here.
- Never!

Elina!

'Please tell me you're close.'

I'm in a total gridlock.
There's a truck broken down

up ahead and...

They've blocked off all the
lanes.

'How are Nicky and the kids
doing?'

Excited - they're warming up.

Oh, that's good.

I don't know, Roman.

'I don't think I'm gonna make
it.'

Stay positive.

Keep me posted,

'OK?'

Wow. Now this is a lobby.

- Aren't you glad we got dressed
up?
- Yes, you were right, of
course!

OK, we just need to find the
coat
check and I'm sure my parents

have been here for at least
half an hour. Oh, there it is!

OK.

- I'm so nervous...
- Getting close, everyone.

Getting close.

Your investor's here.

- Roman!
- Hey!

- How's it going?
- Good - thank you for coming.

I'm really excited to see your
work
on stage.

The kids have been working
really
hard, I think you'll enjoy it.

Oh, and... I've got that
business plan for you.

So...

I look forward to checking it
out.

- Have a great show.
- Thank you!

Any news on Elina?

She just called and, um...

..it doesn't look good.

- Hey, Mom!
- Ah, darling!

You two look lovely.

- MOLLY: Thank you.
- Great seats, Avery.

It's a text from Roman.

What?

It sounds urgent.

I'll be right back.

Roman...

Avery!

- Oh...
- Roman, what's wrong?

Elina is stuck in a traffic jam.
She can't get into the city.

Well, how can I help?

Will you dance the number with
me?

I...

I mean, I...

I don't even know if I would
remember the choreography.

I don't want to ruin
this performance for you.

You can do this.

Avery, I believe in you.

OK.

OK.

DANCERS: Hey!

- That was awesome!
- Hey, Avery!

Amazing - Nicky,
I am so proud of you.

Thanks!

Where's my mom?

Let me just talk to him
for a second.

Your mum is fine.

She's just stuck in traffic.

Avery's going to dance the
number
with me.

OK.

OK.

Roman, Avery -

you guys are up after this.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Avery, I'm sorry for the way
I treated you the other night.

You don't have to apologise.

I found out that David came
to see you at the studio.

Yes, and he told me that
the two of you are back
together.

That's a lie.

We're not back together.

You're not?

No.

And...

we never will be, cos...

I'm not the same person I was
when I walked into your studio.

No.

You're a much better dancer.

Well, I learned to...

I learned to trust my partner.

And your partner trusts you.

Now, are you ready?

I can't believe I'm saying this,
but...

Yes.

I am ready.

It's Avery!

Frosted window panes

Candles gleaming inside

Painted candy canes

On the tree

Santa's on his way

He's filled his sleigh

With things

And this song of mine

In three-quarter time

Wishes you just

The same thing too

It's that time of year

When the world falls in love

Every song you hear seems to say

Merry Christmas

May your New Year dreams

Come true

And this song of mine

In three-quarter time

Wishes you and yours

The same thing

Too.
