- No, of course, Mr. Wilcox, I
understand.

And again, I apologize on
behalf of Horton Hotels.

I can personally assure you

that this will never happen
again.

Well, I'm not supposed to do
this,

but because it's the holidays
how about I offer you

a massage to our spa and some
vouchers

for free room service for
the rest of your stay.

It's not a problem.

Merry Christmas to you, too, Mr.
Wilcox.

Bye.

- Wow, that's very generous of
you, boss.

You ready to take off?

- Uh, yeah.

Just--

Oh, just one second I have to
get this.

- Hello, is this thing
on?

- Hi, Gram, how are you doing?

- Is it, Amanda, are you
there?

I can't see you.
- Gram, hello?

- Oh, there you are!

Oh, there's my darling girl.

- Now, I'm the one who can't see
you.

Tilt your tablet down.

- Okay, all right.

- Oh, split the difference.

Almost there.
- Ah!

- There you go.

How you doing, Gram?

- Oh, you know, I'm just
plugging along,

counting the hours until my
darling

granddaughter comes home.

- Me, too, Grams.

I'm so happy I finally got
some time off this year.

Christmas just isn't the
same when I'm in the city.

- I'll bet.

Now how'd you get your boss to
let you come home this time?

- Well, I am gonna have
to work a little bit while

I'm there, but it shouldn't
take up too much time.

- Oh, I'll just be so glad
you're here.

I don't care what you do.

- Uh, [clearing throat].

- In fact, I can't wait
to tell--

- Uh, just one moment, Gram,
okay?

Oh, yeah.

Hey, Gram, I gotta go, but
I'll see you soon, okay?

- Yeah, okay, all right.

I love you.

- I love you, too.

Bye.
- Oh, I love you.

Oh, you're coming home.

- Wow, your grandmother seems
like the sweetest person.

- She's really special to me.

Okay, I gotta drop these
off on the way out.

You ready?
- Let's do it.

- Let's go.

Thanks.

- This traffic is insane.

These guys are treating

it like a parking lot.

It's a road!

Any luck?

- It looks like a fender bender
up ahead.

- Ugh, well it better clear
up soon if we're gonna get

you to, I'm sorry, what's
the name of this place again?

- Hollybush.
- Hollybush, yes.

That's right.

Come on.

Well, on the bright side

I've checked you in, window
seat.

- Hm.
- I printed you off a luggage

tag in case you need it and
we left 20 minutes early,

so still if I was a betting man

I'd say you'd get to the
airport with enough time

to get a chai latte in
the lounge, your favorite.

- I knew I hired you for a
reason.

- Yeah, well, I had a
great resume, too, so.

GinnyZee?

- Yeah.

- Look, if you need help with
Ginny's

account while you're gone I can
handle it.

- Oh, thank you, but you know
I'm

the only one she'll deal with.

- That's ridiculous.

It's sucky for you because
you get no time off as it is.

- Well, that's okay.

- Look at this.

Aha!
- Yes!

- See, I told you we'd
get you to honeydew.

- Hollybush.
- Yeah, same thing.

- Good luck, take care.

Take a candy cane.

Okay.

Hello, welcome to--
- Hi.

- Convenient Cars where the
customer is always right.

How can I help you?

- I have a reservation for
Amanda Leeds, L-E-E-D-S.

- L-E-E-D-S.
- Mm hm.

- Hm, I'm not seeing it here.

- Oh, that's weird.

I, I have a confirmation number.

Ah, here it is.
- Okay.

- 2539901
- Uh huh.

Okay.

Huh, that's weird.

- What is it?

- That reservation's
already been checked out.

- Really, by who?

- By that guy over there.

Um, sir, sir.

Yeah, if you could just--
- Oh, I know him.

- Oh, good, well, we'll
get it all sorted out.

Hi.
- Hi.

- Uh.

- Leeds?

Mandy Leeds?

Okay, I haven't seen you in a
long time.

- Hi, Lucas.
- Hi.

I'm, what a coincidence
running into you here.

I mean honestly, I haven't
seen you since what,

high school grad, is that
possible?

- You might be right.

- So, what's going on?

You heading home for Christmas?

- Well, I was hoping to, but it
looks like

you got my car reservation.

- What?
- Yeah, our system's been

kind of wacky all day.

I don't know how this could
happen.

I'm so sorry.
- Oh, no, it's okay.

It's not your fault.

I'll just get another car.

Right?

- Yeah, yeah, um, just, just one
moment.

- Okay.

- Just a few moments.

- Oh, oh, okay.

- I mean, I don't wanna
overstep, but I could you a
ride.

I mean, technically it's your
car.

- No, no, no, I don't wanna
impose.

I'm just gonna get another car,
it's fine.

- Nah, don't be silly.

Come on, two Hollybush
High survivors, huh?

Catching up on the road, could
be fun.

- Uh, no.

- It'll save you like $400
and I'm going the same way.

- You should take the ride.

We don't have any cars left.

- Oh.

Okay, well, I guess I'm
going with you then.

- All right.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Great.

- Thank you, take a candy cane.

- Um, thank you.

- Bye bye.

- Heard any good jokes lately?

- Not off the top of my head.

- Really?
- No.

- I seem to remember you
being like really funny.

- I'm not not funny.

- That was funny.

I'm just saying, everyone's
gotta have a go-to joke, right?

Like in case of emergencies.

Do you have an emergency joke?

- I, okay, I did hear a joke
recently,

but it's like really bad.

- Okay, like bad like cheesy or
bad bad?

- Oh like, it's a pun, so cheese
city.

- I love cheese, throw it out
me.

- I don't know.

- No, you can't just dangle
the carrot like that.

Come on, let me hear it.

- What do you call a fake
noodle?

An imposta!

- Wow.
- I know.

- That was a really good bad
joke.

- I tried to warn you.

- You did, you did, thank you.

Maybe a better warning next
time.

What kinda music you listen to?

- Uh, whatever.

- This?

- No.

♪ There's a place that--

- Oh, this is good.

- Yeah, nice song.

♪ All the lights up on the
street ♪

♪ You're the only gift
this Christmas I need ♪

- So, Leeds.
- Hm?

- Be honest.
- Okay.

- How come you didn't come
to the high school reunion?

- Um, I mean, I wanted to,
but I was just busy with work

and I couldn't get it off.

Honestly, I'm still busy with
work,

but do you hang out with
any of the old crew?

- Nah, not really.

I mean, Ashley from time to
time.

- Ashley Clayton?
- Yeah.

Yeah, that Ashley.

Okay, I know you two didn't get
along

in high school, all right?

But you were highly competitive.

Not that you needed to
be 'cause I mean what,

you were good at everything.

- Well, that's nice of you.

I mean, I wasn't good at
everything.

- Oh, come on.

Let's ring the old memory bell
here, huh?

- Okay, let's.
- Yeah, ding, ding.

- Mm hm.
- Okay, so you beat me off

for valedictorian.
- Oh, I did.

- Yeah, you were editor
of the yearbook, huh?

- Okay.
- You remember that?

- Yeah.
- Head of the track team.

- Oh, you have a good memory.

- Yeah and you played Sandy in
"Grease," you remember that?

- Yeah, I do.

Ooh, that was so fun.

- You beat out like 50 girls.

- Okay, well look who's talking.

I mean, prom king, captain
of the football team

and you got voted class
president.

So.

- That's true.
- Mm hm.

- That's true.

You think we peaked in high
school?

- Definitely not.

- Hey, are you hungry?

- I'm starving.

- Up ahead.

- Hanks?

- Yeah.
- Oh, my gosh.

They have the best french fries.

- Yeah, they do.

- We're going.
- We're going.

Oh, I haven't been here in a
while.

- Hey, welcome to Hank and Son's
Diner.

I'm Dave, let me know if
you have any questions.

Just grab any seat you like
and I'll be right with you.

- Thanks.
- Thanks, Dave.

- Thank you.
- Nice hat.

Think he works for Santa?

- I heard that.

Just kidding.

- Oh, this is great.
- Yep.

Oh.
- Here you go.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Wow, look at this.

You see this mega mac and
cheese?

It's got two pounds of cheese in
it.

- That's a lot of cheese.

- Oh, yeah, you know, people
usually split

that between three or four
people,

but if you can eat it
all yourself it's free.

Plus you get your
picture up on that board.

- Hm, I am hungry.

- There's no way you're gonna
eat that.

- One mega mac, please.

- All right, split?

- Make it two, garcon.

- Okay, two mega macs coming
right up.

- With extra cheese.

- Whoa.

- So, we're doing this?

- Well, I mean it is a special
occasion.

Plus we get our picture up on
that board.

- Absolutely.

So, how have you been?

What are you doing?

Are you in a relationship,
are you seeing anyone?

- Uh, I actually broke up
with someone last month.

- Oh, that sucks.
- Mm hm.

- Especially around the
holidays.

- Yeah, he thought that I
was too focused on my career.

I didn't even know that that was
a thing.

- Yeah, I know that feeling all
too well.

Mel and I, we just broke
up about a year ago.

- Mel and you?

- Mm hm.
- Mel, Prom Queen Mel?

- Yes, Prom Queen Mel.

- Interesting.

What happened?

- I mean, nothing really
happened.

- Hm.
- We just, I don't know,

we grew apart.

I mean, we both changed but
we didn't change together

if that makes any sense.

Plus you know, she wanted to
stay in Manhattan and I didn't,

so that was a big factor.

- So, you wound up in New York?

- Yeah, ended up being one
of the Wall Street type guys

if you can believe it.

- Hm, you don't say.

- So, what about you?

I mean, what are you doing for
work now?

- Do you know Horton Hotels?

- Yeah.
- I'm a Regional Manager

for three of their locations;

two in Miami and one in Fort
Lauderdale.

- Wow.
- Mm hm.

- That's cool and you like it?

- Oh, I love it.

It's a great company and
plus my boss let me have some

actual time off this year, so
I'm pretty happy about that.

I mean, it does come with
some strings attached, but.

- What kinda strings?

- Oh, well, you know that
quant hotel off Highway Eight?

It's kind of a mashup of a
bed and breakfast and a motel.

- Yeah, the Chesterwood, of
course.

- Right, well, it's up
for sale and Horton Hotels

is trying to get more boutique
locations,

so I tried to convince my
managers

to let me put a bid on it.

Yeah.

- So, what'd they say?

- Oh, well, if I can close
the deal by next week,

then I am looking at a hefty
raise

and probably transferring
to corporate office.

- Wow.
- I mean, it's not all

about money for me.

I just really wanna do a good
job, you know what I'm saying?

Sorry, do I make any sense?

I feel like I'm really rambling.

- No, it's fine, that's great.

Wow, so, you're moving home?

- Oh, no, well, no, not exactly.

- Well, how's that work then?

- Well, I can run the location
remotely,

just like I do for Fort
Lauderdale.

- All right, here you go.

- Thank you.

Oh, wow.

- Hope you're not lactose
intolerant.

- We're gonna need a bigger
fork.

- Say cheese!

- Cheese!
- Cheese!

- You know, I've never seen a
couple take

on this challenge at the same
time.

- Oh, no, we're not a couple.
- Oh, we're not a couple.

- Either way, you two make a
great team.

I hope to see you back here
someday.

Aw.
- Thanks, Dave.

- Oh, I got it, I got it.

- Oh, you sure?
- Yeah.

So, thanks for the ride.

- Anytime, Leeds.

Hey, why don't I help you to the
door.

- Okay.

- Amanda Leeds is that you?

My, my, you have grown.

And Lucas Manzino, twice in two
weeks.

Am I the luckiest gal
in Hollybush or what?

Manzino Junior here wants to buy

the inn and I might just let
him.

- Well, I mean nothing's
finalized yet.

- Oh, no, but it's close to
be final, wouldn't you say?

When you were here last week

you were ready to sign the
check.

- You know what, I do need
to take this, so excuse me.

- He's got some really fun
ideas for the new menu.

Very excited.

- That's interesting.

- Sorry to leave abruptly.

I really do need to go.

Tammy, we'll chat soon about the
menu.

Please let me explain this
tomorrow.

I'll call you?

Great.

- Okay, that was strange.

So, young lady, what brings you
into town?

- Well, uh, I guess this is
the best time to tell you,

Lucas isn't the only one with
his eye on the Chesterwood.

That's what I'm doing here, I
also wanna make a bid on it.

- Oh.

Okay.

So, let me get this straight.

You also wanna buy the inn?

- Well, not me personally,

but on behalf of Horton Hotels,
yes.

- Well, that puts me in quite

a pickle to be honest with you.

I mean, I'm very grateful to
have two buyers interested,

it's just, well, Lucas is moving
back home

and Bert and me, we just
really want the person

that takes over here to
really care about the place.

To run it like my family
has for generations.

- This is my home, too.

And did you know that Horton
Hotels

is actually a family run
business?

I mean, it's a multimillion
dollar family run business,

but still, we know family.

- I mean, I guess it wouldn't
hurt to hear you out,

but I should tell you this
town relies on visitors

and we haven't been getting many
since

that terrible blizzard last
spring.

I mean, we aren't the
only people suffering

from lack of tourism around
here,

businesses are closing up
left, right and center.

I tell ya, if we don't get
more bookings for January,

it won't matter who owns the
inn,

there won't be a town left to
visit.

- Oh, that's awful.

- I know and Bert and
me, we just don't have

the heart for all the
hustle and bustle anymore.

So, we really need to
find somebody who does.

- Tammy, I completely understand
what you need in a new

owner and can confidently say
that I wouldn't let you down.

I have a ton of ideas for this
place,

and I can help this town.

- Well, let's sit down over
tea and chat this week.

- Great.

- Oh, oh, I guess I
should check you in, huh?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Hey, it's me.

Are you around tomorrow at noon?

Yeah?

Okay, yes.

- Ah, it feels like 80 years
since the last time I saw you.

Why didn't you call me
sooner you dingdong?

- I know, I'm the worst.

But it was a last minute
decision.

- Whatever, I'm just happy
you're here.

When are you coming over
for a movie marathon?

- Uh, probably once the
Christmas chaos dies down.

- Or what are you doing tonight?

- Ooh, I can't tonight.

- Why not?

- I'm going to dinner at my
Gram's

and then I have business to
attend to.

- Business huh?
- Mm hm.

- Yeah?

- You heard of the
Chesterwood?

- You are aware
that I live here, right?

- Right, well,
it went up for sale

about a month ago.

- I know, it's all anyone
in this town can talk about.

What about it?

- Well, I'm putting a bid on it
so that

I can take it to corporate
in New York City.

- What?
- Mm hm.

- What about your job in Miami?

- Oh, well, I love my job,
I just need a new challenge.

- Uh huh, so you're
gonna buy the Chesterwood

for your company and then
what, move back home?

- Oh, not really.

Oh, but I will be home more.

I mean, I'll be commuting
from here and the city

and just until the
place gets in shape, so.

What is it?

- Well, obviously, I would freak
out

if you spent more time at home.

- But?
- But there's a teensy tiny

rumor that Lucas Manzino
is gonna put a bid on it.

Apparently he's moving back
home.

- So I've heard.

- And the entire town
is rallying behind him

because they say he's the
voice of the new generation.

- Hm.
- Honestly, the guy could

run for mayor and win just
based on his charming smile.

People really eat that up here.

I'm sorry, Mans, I woulda
sugarcoated the truth for you,

but I love you too much.

- It's not that I'm
competing against him again,

it's that I'm surprised that
he didn't tell me himself.

I mean, I had to find out from
Tammy.

- Hold up.

I'm clearly missing something
here.

- Oh, we ran into each other
on the way back into town.

- And?

- And it's a long story.

And I have to get a dessert for
tonight,

so let's go.

♪ All of my wishes this
Christmas ♪

- You're not getting off that
easy.

You know how much I love good
gossip

and I haven't had nearly
enough, so, girl, you're on.

- Well, the truth is he was
different than I remember.

- You are aware of how
gossip works, right?

You aren't giving me much to go
on here.

- I don't know, he was sweet.

We bonded over mac and cheese.

- Oh, Hank's mega mac?

- Oh, that's the one!

- Oh, that must've been a fun
trip.

Okay, let's get to the good
stuff

because if I know you there's
something

you're not telling me.

- Is that little Amanda?

- Hi, Jane.

- Oh, it's so good to see you.

How are you doing big city girl?

- Good, good.

- And the parents, how are they
doing?

- Oh, they're doing great.

Soaking up the sun in Panama
somewhere.

- Ah, I can't wait to retire.

And of course, hello, Jackie.

- Hey, how's business been?

- Oh, it's Christmas time.

To be honest, we've had better
years.

Ooh-la-la.

Grabbing something sweet
for you and Mr. Leeds?

- Oh, no, no time for Mr. Leeds.

Just me.
- Oh, well that's okay.

Plenty of fish in the sea

and everything happens
for a reason, right?

- Right.

- When Mr. Right comes along,
you'll make time I'm sure.

- Yeah.
- Look who it is.

- Hi, Ashley.

How are you?

- I'm really great.

Hey, Jackie.
- Hi.

- Hi, Jane.

- I've been meaning to thank
you for helping out with

the food drive at the community
center.

- I do what I can.

Everyone's gotta pitch in,
right?

So, are you home for the
holidays?

- Yeah, I'm here for
Christmas with my Grams.

- And she gets to spend time
with me.

- That's nice.

Anyway, I'm just grabbing
some chocolate chips

'cause I gotta finish up
my holiday baking, so.

- Oh, well, if I don't
see you then I hope you

have a merry Christmas.

- Oh, I'm sure we'll
see each other around.

It's a really small town
or have you forgotten?

- Okay, bye.

I don't love her.
- I know.

- So, just the fruitcake?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- You're here!

Oh, look at you.

Oh, sweetie.

Oh, I finally get to hug my
angel girl.

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, sweetie.

Oh, and you brought dessert.

You always were my favorite
grandchild, you know that?

- I'm your only grandchild.

- Well, still.

- Wow, Grams, you really went
all out.

- Yep.
- I'm impressed.

- Well, you know me.

This is definitely my
favorite time of year.

Oh, this look so good.

- Oh, good.

There's actually a shop in
the mall in my neighborhood

and they have Christmas
decorations all year round.

It always makes me think of you.

- Oh, sweetie.

- How have you been?

I miss you.

- Oh and I miss you.

And you know, I've just
been puttering along.

Yeah.
- Well, you look pretty happy

for someone who's just puttering
along.

- Really?
- Mm hm.

You're beaming.

- Well, I do have a surprise to
share

with you my darling girl.

- Oh?

- Yes.

Ah.

- Who might that be?

- That might be the surprise
that I wanna share with you.

- Oh.

- Amanda, you remember Ernie
Manzino.

He's my boyfriend.

- It's so good to see you again.

- Ernie Manzino, how are you?

I just ran into Lucas on the way
here.

What a small world.

- Oh, great, then you're
reacquainted again,

'cause he's gonna be
along in just a minute.

- What's that now?

- Hello?

- Hi.
- Oh, hi.

Hey, everyone.

- Lucas, what are you doing
here?

- Oh, uh, well, my Gramps
invited me over about an hour
ago

and I had nothing going on, so.

- We thought it might be nice
for you

to have somebody your
age to catch up with.

- Well, that is really nice of
you, Grams.

I'm actually gonna head to
the kitchen really quick--

- Uh, uh, uh, that's what
Lucas and I are here for.

We're gonna make you dinner
while

the two of you catch up
with each other, okay?

- Ooh!
- Right, Luke?

Come on, let's go.
- Absolutely.

- Thank you.

Oh, Ernie, you.

That's my boyfriend.

- So, Ernie Manzino,
huh?

- Isn't he something?

And wait till you try his
turnips,

they taste even better than mine
do.

- That's impossible.

I wonder who told Ernie that

my favorite food was mashed
turnips?

- Oh, I don't know, must've
been a little birdy.

- He seems nice, Grams.

- Mm hm.
- But just you know,

be careful.

- Be careful, what do you mean?

- You know, boys.

- Oh, hun, honey, don't worry
about me.

This isn't my first rodeo.

Ooh, forks on the left.

There you go, dear.
- Oh.

- And let me tell you something.

When you know you just know,

and someday soon you're gonna
know.

- Hm, I wouldn't hold
my breath on that one,

but if you're happy then I'm
happy.

- Dinner's ready, ladies.

- Ooh, great.

I hope everybody is very hungry.

- Yes.

I haven't had a home
cooked meal in forever.

- Aw.
- Ooh, forever's a long time.

- Oh, well, I've been busy.

- So, Mandy--
- Mm hm?

- Did you hear that the
Chesterwood is for sale?

- I sure did.

So, how did you two meet?

- Oh, my goodness.

We love to tell this story,
don't we?

- You wanna start it off?
- Okay.

We reconnected at the
Thanksgiving Day Parade.

- And the weather for
the day was beautiful,

believe it or not.

The sun was shining.
- Mm hm.

And with my fair skin I
was afraid I was gonna get

a sunburn, isn't that
unbelievable?

But anyway, did you know
that Ernie does woodwork?

- No.

- Mandy, you should've seen it,

it was like a giant
birdhouse for a turkey.

- It worked.

- Well, after the parade
I walked over to Eileen--

- And he said, "I wanted to
come up with something clever

"to say, but I thought I'd just
wing it."

I almost died laughing.

- Okay, well, uh, I guess
congratulations

are in order for the love birds.

- Oh.
- Ooh, well, I mean,

as long as there's no fowl play.

- Ooh!

- So, how did you two get
reacquainted?

- Um, what do you mean?

- Well, you said that you
reconnected on the way over
here.

- Oh, yeah.
- Oh, well.

- The airport was trying--
- Yeah.

- To get Leeds, I mean Mandy's
reservation

at the car rental place
at the airport and so,

I got to give her a ride into
town.

- Well, that was awfully kind of
you.

- Well, I mean, they
had my reservation but

for some reason or another
it got mixed up with Lucas's,

so actually, he took my car.

- Oh.
- What a mix up.

- Yeah, really.

Well, it sounds to me like you
two

are meant to travel together.

- Oh, yeah, I don't know about
that.

Those rental car places, their
computers are really old.

- Oh, come on, I think we
had a pretty fun ride back,

didn't we, Mandy?
- Yeah, it was really fun.

Um, Ernie, these turnips are
amazing.

You've got this like sweet and
sour combo.

What's your secret ingredient?

- Oh, I'm glad you liked 'em.

Lucas mixed up this batch,
it's an old family recipe.

- Mm.
- Oh.

They're, they're good.

- Thank you.
- Mm hm.

- It's apple cider vinegar by
the way.

- Oh, is it?
- Mm hm.

- Interesting.

- Uh, anyone want
seconds?

- Oh, I'll have some more
turnips, Ernie,

or should I say roomie?

- Roomie?
- Mm hm.

- Huh?
- Well, we wanted to wait

until we could tell you in
person.

Ernie's moving in with me
tomorrow.

- Tomorrow?

Wow.
- Tomorrow?

- Um, um.

- Wow.

- Well, that's big news.

- Mm hm.
- Yeah, uh, cheers.

- Cheers.
- Oh, yeah, right.

Cheers.

- Now, we know the two
of you are incredibly

busy young people, but we
were hoping that you might

be able to help us out with the
move.

- Would that be okay?

I'm just not as strong as I used
to be.

- There's not a lot of stuff,

but we sure could use the help.

- Absolutely.

Yeah, absolutely.
- Yeah, totally.

Yeah, sure thing.
- Yeah.

- Oh, that's just
wonderful then, thank you.

- Ah, well, I am full.

- Oh, thanks so much for
having me over, Mrs. Leeds.

- Oh, come on, you did all the
work.

Thank you and you can call me
Eileen

or even Grams if you like.

- Okay.
- Ah, well,

this was a wonderful meal
with wonderful company, too.

- Are you all right, dear?

- Oh, me, never my better,
Grams.

I'm just gonna take these
dishes--

- Oh.
- Because we have a big

day tomorrow.
- Oh, I'll help you.

- Oh, no, that's not necessary,
Lucas.

You can just sit back and relax.

- No.
- I've got is.

- No, I've cleaned
dishes all through college

and I know how to make 'em
sparkle.

- Okay, well, I can't argue--

- Huh?
- With that, can I?

- Well.

- We get out of doing dishes.

- Yes, we do.

- I'll drink to that.

- Good planning.

Yep.

- I shoulda told you I was gonna

make a bid on the Chesterwood.

- And why didn't you?

- I don't know.

I guess I just got distracted.

I mean, I was having a lot of
fun.

And then when I found out that
you wanted

to make a bid on it too, I just
felt bad.

- Well, it felt worse
hearing it from Tammy.

- Yeah, no doubt.

It's conflicting, you know?

I mean, like, I really want
this change of pace in my life

and this is a great opportunity,

but I don't wanna take
anything away from you.

And to be honest, I didn't wanna
rain

on your parade right then and
there.

- I get it.

I mean, things get in the way.

I just, I just wish you
woulda said something.

- I'm sorry.

- No hard feelings.

- So, friends on?

- Friends.

And by the way, about the
Chesterwood,

you haven't taken
anything away from me yet.

I'm still in the running.

- Uh, yeah, I guess you're
right.

- Mm hm and just so you know,

I have some stellar plans for
that place.

- Hm, well, as they say,
may the best man win.

- Or woman.

- Hm.

I should go get the rest of the
dishes.

- Yeah.

Eye on the prize, Mandy.

Eye on the prize.

So, if you click that button
there it automatically

brings people to your new
booking page.

- That was so easy.
- Mm hm.

And if you click that
it'll direct customers

to your social media pages.

Hm and that's weird.

- Oh, it's actually not that
weird.

We don't have the social media.

- Oh.

Well, that explains it.

I guess we'll have to
get started on that, too.

Good thing I brought my good
camera.

- Hm.

- Ah, it's still lacking some
flair.

I'll tell you what, I'm
gonna go help my Grams today,

but how about tomorrow I stop by

and just spruce the place up?

Nothing major, just a couple of
tweaks

to make it look a little more
modern.

- Well, as long as it's done

by our annual Christmas Eve
party.

We're hosting it at the
banquet hall this year

and I don't wanna keep
going back and forth.

- Of course, I just need a few
hours

and it'll look good as new.

Trust me.
- Okay.

So--
- Hello?

Oh, hey.
- Hey.

- Hi.

Oh, I'm sorry, don't
let me interrupt ladies.

- Oh, no, it's okay, hun.

We're just gabbing about
some much needed renos.

- Yep.

- Oh, really?
- Mm hm.

- Well, don't allow me to
take up too much of your time.

I just wanted to stop
by and drop these off.

- Oh, is that what I think it
is?

- You know it.

- I just love biscotti.

- Now, this would be the
Chesterwood's signature cookie.

Okay, we would serve it in every
room

with all the espresso machines.

And this is what I'm working
on for the proposed menu.

- Wow, look at you, this is
fancy.

Let me just go put this in the
kitchen.

- You know how they say the way

to a man's heart is through his
stomach?

- Hm.
- Well, I have found

that to be true for
everyone, not just us guys.

- Gotta hand it to you, Luke,
you're a strong competitor.

I mean, don't get me wrong,
you're still gonna lose,

but I do admire your tenacity.

- Ditto.

Are you ready for this move?

- Uh, yeah, I'm in my comfy
clothes and everything.

- Yeah you are.

- So nice to see you two
are in better spirits today.

- I forget how peaceful it is
here.

So quiet.

- Yeah.

That's why I left the city.

- Hm.

- I'm gonna warm up the car.

- Okay.

- Oh, come on.

- What?

- I don't know, maybe the
block heater's too cold?

Might have to wait till
morning when it warms up.

- Okay.

- Guess we're spending the
night.

- Well, Ernie's cabin it is.

What are we gonna do about food?

We packed up all the cans.

- Ah, you know what we
didn't pack, the fridge.

- Mm.

- Huh.

- So, mustard and pickle
sandwiches?

- I'm in.

Why don't you have a
seat, I'll handle this.

- Okay.

- All right.

- So, what made you
wanna purchase the Chesterwood?

- Well, my family has always
been in the service industry

and I think I'm finally
understanding why.

I mean, the day-to-day
can be quite simple,

however, you can make someone
smile

just by making 'em a pickle
sandwich.

Plus just that whole Manhattan
fast paced lifestyle,

I think I'm over it.

- You don't think that you'll
miss it?

- Yeah, maybe.

I just wanna spend more time
with friends and family.

- Hm.

- All right, one sandwich coming
right up.

- You know, I admire that.

For me I'm just trying to build
my career.

Cheers.
- Cheers.

To being stuck together yet
again.

- Yeah.

It's actually really good.

- Thank you.

So, how about you?

I mean, what got you into the
hotel game?

- I just think there's
something really rewarding

about going the extra
mile to make someone happy

or making them feel
special on their vacation.

I'm really in my element when
I'm working

and I just wanna be
the best that I can be.

- Well, you don't have to tell
me that.

- Okay, I know, I'm competitive.

But I don't know, I feel
like I have something

to prove to myself.

- I get that.

You wanna know something?

I like spending time with you.

- Oh, sorry, it's work.

- You should try turning
that off sometime,

you might like it.

- Well, it's just this one
client.

She kinda counts on me to be
there.

- That sounds time consuming.

- I mean, not really.

It used to be, but now that
I've figured out what she likes

and what she doesn't
like, it's pretty easy.

Plus we've kinda become friends.

- That's nice.

Well, I guess we should tuck in,
huh?

Get a good sleep so we can
move everything in the morning.

- Yeah, okay.

- I'll show you to your room.
- Thanks.

- Here you are, my lady.

Good night.
- Night.

♪ Silent night

♪ Holy night

♪ All is calm

♪ And all is bright

♪ 'Round yon virgin mother and

♪ Silent night

♪ Oh, holy night

♪ All is calm and all is bright

- Hey.
- Hey.

- How'd you sleep?

- Ah, pretty good, you?

- Not bad.

That bed is surprisingly
comfortable.

- Yeah.

You all right?

Hey, hey, what are you doing?

Uh uh, you don't wanna do that.

That's it.

This is so on right now.

Okay.

Oh, nice!

You ready for my specialty?

Okay, I call this the big
thunder.

- Where'd you go?

Do you give up?

- Oh!
- I surrender, I surrender.

- For real?
- Yes.

- Turn around.

I tried to warn you.

- Uh, great, well, in
my defense I didn't know

that I was up against some
sort of snowball olympian.

- Yeah, three time gold medalist
winner.

- Uh huh.
- Uh huh.

- Yes!

- Uh.

Oh, no.

- What is it?

- They moved my flight to the
28th.

- That's not a bad thing.

Now you get to spend more time
at home.

- Ugh, I have a big meeting
with my boss on the 27th.

I'm supposed to debrief her on
all

of the progress I've made
with the Chesterwood.

- All right.

- What's wrong?

- Honestly?

I mean, you haven't been
home in over a decade

and you wanna go home
the day after Christmas.

I just don't get it.

- I mean, I don't want to go
home.

- You're not trying very hard to
stay.

- Luke.

- Look, I mean it's one
thing to care about your job,

it's another to make it your
life.

Trust me.

- I don't know what to say,
Luke.

I have to get back to work.

I can't stay here forever.

- Fine.

Yeah, we'll get you back.

- I was supposed to
only be here for a week

and then back to my life in
Miami

and now I don't know what to do.

- Oh, I know, it's so stressful
when they

change your flight around.

- Right?

And I have meetings to get back
to

and my apartment and the
sunshine.

- Well, on the bright side,

those things will all be
there when you get back.

- That's true.

And I'm a little worried
about the Chesterwood.

I mean, I really, really want
it,

and how am I supposed to make
biscotti?

And when would I learn to make
biscotti?

And who even likes biscotti?

All it is is a sweet cracker.

- Biscotti?

Is this about Lucas?

- Okay, yes.

He said there's caring about
your work

and then making it your life.

And then we didn't talk on the
drive home.

- Yikes, that must've
been an awkward ride back.

- Yeah.

- Oh, I'm so sorry, Mans.

- It's okay.

I actually need to focus
on the inn anyways, so.

- It's okay to be upset about
it.

- I'm not upset about it.

Okay, I'm a little upset about
it.

- Okay, take a long, deep
breath.

And let's talk about how we're
gonna turn this day around.

- To be honest, I think
I need to be distracted.

Are you free this afternoon?

- Girl, you know I'm always
free as a bird for you.

What do you have in mind?

Self care day.

We can get manipedis.

- Oh, that sounds amazing,
but I did promise Tammy

that I would help her with a
few touches back at the inn.

I would be so grateful
if you could join me.

- Um, it's not quite as
relaxing as a spa day,

but if it helps you get
one step closer to closing

the deal with the
O'Connors, I'll be there.

- You're the best, Jacks,
I can always count on you.

Ooh, I'm late.

Okay, I'll call you later.

- Mm hm.
- Ooh, wear comfy clothes.

- Mm hm.

The spa would've been really
nice.

- We're on the east
coast, it's the same timezone.

- Oh, so, I'm sorry,
is now not a good time?

- Is everything okay?

- Uh, yeah, totally.

Everything's completely under
control.

Actually, um, can I put you
on hold for just one second?

Yeah?

Oh, yes, okay, can I deal with
that in like five minutes?

Okay, I'm back.

- Level with me, Greg.

- It's room 203.

The guest is complaining that
it's somehow

too hot and too cold at the same
time.

I honestly don't know how you do
it.

I've tried everything.

- Okay, how bad is it?

- Well, it's pretty bad.

I would say that the guest is
irate.

Um, I could really use
your help in fixing it.

- I can't.

- Um, I'm sorry, can't?

- Fix it.
- Oh.

- You don't need me, you're
a great people person.

I know you can handle it.

- Um, um, thank you, but--

- Have you spoken to
her?

- Uh, yes, a number of times.

- In person?

- No.

- What do you think, patterned
or textured wallpaper?

- Um--
- It's for the inn.

I'm helping the owner with
a few small renovations.

- Okay, yes, how old's the
building?

- Uh, 1870s Victorian.

- Textured.

You can never go wrong with a
classic.

- Great.

- So, the guest, any advice?

- Bottom drawer, left-hand
side, knock on the door.

Go with the classics.

- Go with the classics.

- I'll tell you the truth.

My main concern is that
Lucas is local and he cares

about this town and this
town cares about him.

And Horton Hotels is a big
company.

I'm just not sure this place
will get

the same attention and care, you
know?

- I completely understand
where you're coming from.

Let me start by keeping
my promise from yesterday.

A few simple fixes.

I mean, why wait, right?

- All right.

I don't see the harm in getting

some help anyway.
- Okay.

Let me just make a
couple phone calls first.

- Okay.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Thanks for coming.
- Oh yeah.

- Of course.
- Okay.

- Okay, yeah, no, I got perfect
stuff.

- When you're right, you're
right.

This place looks 10 times
better than it did yesterday.

And even better than it
did on its best days.

Thank you so much, Mandy,
for your help, we needed it.

- Well, this is just the
beginning.

I mean, imagine what we can
do with some deeper pockets.

- Ah, well, I will give that
some thought.

I promise you that, but in the
meantime,

I've gotta go check on Bert.

He's getting a very nasty cold,

but I'll be back in a few
minutes.

- Okay.

- Hello?

Oh, hi.

Hey.
- Hi.

- Whoa, this place looks
amazing.

Did you, did you do this?

- Well, I mean, not alone.

I had some help.

- Mm hm.
- Mm hm.

- Three amigos, huh?

I mean, it looks really good.

I mean, it's not too
much, it's not too little.

Whoa.

- Yeah, I should go.

I could use a shower.
- Mm hm.

- Right and I've gotta pick
Ernie up from curling, so.

- Oh.
- Mm hm.

- Bye.

Guess I know how to clear a
room, huh?

I'm sorry about what I said
earlier.

You care about your work
and that's a good thing.

I had no right to pass
any judgment on that.

To be honest, Leeds, I mean that
was me.

I never took a lunch break,
never took a vacation,

and I got burnt out, like hard.

So, I just want what's best for
you

if that makes any sense.

- Well, for what it's
worth I'm sorry, too.

Sometimes I get so wrapped up in
work

I don't realize how
glued to my phone I am.

- Oh, great, great, you're here
early.

I was wondering if we could go
over

a few things on the menu you
gave me.

- Yeah, absolutely.

- Excellent.

- Okay, well, I'll just leave
you to it.

- I mean, unless you wanna stay?

- Are you sure that's okay?

I mean, just so I can check out

what the competition is up to.

- Yeah, we would appreciate the
input.

- Great.

- Great.

- Great.

so, my first question is

will my cook be able to make
everything on this menu?

He's not the brightest bulb in
the pack.

- Yeah, I have the recipes
printed off,

so I think he'll be okay.

But if he needs help
I'll come and teach him.

- Can I take a look.

- Yeah, absolutely, I
mean most of them are from

family recipes, but you know,
I got creative with a few.

- Hm.

Chicken Cordon Blue.
- Mm hm.

- Oysters Rockefeller, these are
good.

These are like really good.

- Really?
- Mm hm.

- So even this, this turnip,
how do you say that word?

- Tartine, it's French.

- Uh huh, Tartine?

'Cause you know, turnips can be
hit

or miss with people sometimes.

- Oh, turnips are a hit with me.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- All right, well, you know
what,

if this is how people are eating
nowadays,

I'm all for it.

But could you do me a favor?

- Hm?
- Could you put a couple

of classics on the menu?

I'm thinking something like
a pot roast, fried chicken.

- Deal, absolutely, done.

- Great, well, I think it looks
good then.

Now, it is no secret that you
both really want this property

and Bert and me, we're
thrilled about your interest.

And from what I've seen from
both of you is that either

one of you would be a great
choice to run this place.

We just have a lot to consider

before we make our final
decision.

- I'm sure I could put a good
word in,

see if I could get the secret

family recipe for our spaghetti
sauce.

- The Manzino marinara?

- Yeah, you know it.

- Well, I can make a single
phone call

and get you a higher
number for this place.

- While I appreciate those
sentiments,

I should let you know that it's

about more than just menu or
money.

Bert and me, we built
this place and you know,

we just really wanna make
sure it's looked after

with the same amount of
heart that we gave it.

And you guys both have
heart, that's for sure.

We just, we just need just
another day

to make our final decision.

- I completely understand.

- Thank you.

I promise I will let you know
tomorrow

at the Christmas Eve soiree.

Hm, see you're not the only one

who can speak French around
here.

- Sounds fair, Tammy.

- Okay, so, having said
that in the meantime

I've gotta go get
prepared for said soiree,

so if you'll excuse me.

- Okay, see you tomorrow.

- Later, Tam.

- Bye, guys, thanks for
your work.

- Oh, yeah, speaking of work.

We still have some moving boxes
to unpack

at your Grams if I'm not
mistaken.

If you still want help.

- Wouldn't mind an extra hand.

- I'll bring 'em both.

So, Leeds, you like my menu?

- Yeah, smooth move
with that secret recipe.

Must be some spaghetti sauce.

- Gotta hand it to you though,
huh?

Coming in with the higher bid.

- Hm.
- Hm.

- Not my first rodeo.

Ooh.

- You all right?

- I cut myself.

- Really?
- Ooh, yeah, it's bleeding.

- Ooh.
- I'm gonna go sit down.

- Uh, where does your grandma
keep the first aid kit?

- Uh, top shelf in the
cabinet on the right.

- Oh, I found it.

I found it.

Unit one, we got a cut.

We're coming in hot.

Okay.

Hey, eyes right here.

- Okay.
- Follow my finger.

Eyes here.
- I see you.

It's not bleeding that bad.

- No, no, don't look at it, just
focus.

All right, knock knock?

- Who's there?

- Boo.

- I've heard this one.

- Knock knock.

- Who's there?
- Boo.

- Boo who?

- Oh, hey, it's okay, you
don't have to cry about it.

Just a little cut, see?

Everyone's gotta have a go-to
joke.

- In case of emergencies.

- That's right.

Just like this.

Look at that emergency.

How's that?

- It's great.

- Mm hm.
- Yeah, all better.

Uh, thank you.
- Nice to be home.

- Yeah, I hear you.
- Guess I should go.

- Yeah.
- I'll see you at the party?

- Yeah, you were funny.
- Of course.

- Oh, wow, I can't believe how
much stuff they brought in.

Hey, Mandy, Lucas, where are
you?

- Hey, Gramps, Eileen.

- Oh, well, thanks for all this,
kiddo.

We owe you one.

- Not a problem.

- Thanks.

- Ah, you two look good
together.

- Oh, [giggling], good night.

Thanks again.

- Thank you, good night.

- Hi.

- You guys held hands?

What is this, middle school?

- Okay, well, when you put
it that way it doesn't sound

like a big deal, but it was
cute.

- Oh, no, trust me, this is a
big deal.

I'm still trying to recover from
the fact

that you guys are even on
speaking terms

and now you're gonna get
married and have babies.

- Okay, whoa, you've
missed a couple of steps.

I mean, we haven't even kissed
yet.

- Yeah, but you almost did,

which means it's only a matter
of time before [humming].

And no pressure, but just saying

your babies would be so cute.

- Oh, oh, no pressure, huh?

- No.

Are you sure you wanna stick
around?

I don't need my cappuccino that
bad.

- No, it's fine.

- Look who it is.

- Oh.

- Hi.

- Hey.

- Hi.

- Look at us all together again.

- What are you up to?

- Uh, we were actually
just about to go get ready

for Tammy's Christmas Eve party.

How about you?

- We're keeping busy.

- Ash, you're still Christmas
shopping?

- I'm almost done.

It's been so tough for
Main Street this year,

so I'm doing all my shopping
locally.

And speaking of locally, Amanda,

I hear that you're also
bidding on the Chesterwood?

- Yeah, I'm just gonna order
something really quick.

You want something or?

- Oh, I would love a coffee.

Thanks, Luke.

- That's looks
delicious.

- So, the inn?

- Uh, yeah.

I mean, it's a great opportunity

and I feel like we can
really revive the business.

- Hey, Lucas, what can I get for
you?

- Hey, I'll grab one
coffee and one capachino.

- Of course.
- Thank you.

- Well, this town really
needs the hotel to work,

but I just feel like Lucas knows

Hollybush so well, you know?

- What'd I miss?

- Oh, we were just discussing
how both you

and Amanda are bidding on the
Chesterwood.

- That comes up a lot, huh?

- Yeah.

- Well, I personally don't think

it's gonna be much of a
competition.

I mean 99% of Hollybush is
rallying for you to win,

and come on, we all know how
much Tammy

cares about what the people
think, so.

- I don't know, Ash.

I mean, you should see what
Leeds has been doing over there.

It's quite impressive.

- Well, this might sound harsh,

but I just don't think
she's as good as you, Luke.

- I'm actually really good at my
job.

- Yeah.

- Well, this has been fun,

but Mans and I have to go
get ready for the party.

- Yep.
- Okay, see you there.

- Really?

- What?

- Okay, she is as bad as I
remember.

Let's not worry about her.

We have a party to get ready
for.

- Mm hm.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Yeah, I'm gonna go grab, go
grab my,

whatever, I'll see you in the
car.

- Okay.

- I meant what I said at the
table.

I think you're doing a
great job with the inn.

- I appreciate it.

- I mean, I've had all
these visions for it

and you just keep bringing new
ideas.

- You just like the competition,
don't ya?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

But I mean if I'm gonna lose,

might as well lose to you,
right?

- Hm.

I'll see you tonight?

- Yeah.

Let me get that.
- Oh.

Thanks.

- You know, Jacks, you're
seriously the only person

in this world I trust enough to
do this.

- Well, that's because I'm
amazing at it.

- Mm hm.
- And because that salon

lady really overdid your prom
makeup.

That's when I got why you
couldn't trust

anyone to do anything for you.

- Oh, no, okay, I think that
is a bit of an exaggeration.

- What, no, no, no.

It's not a bad thing, okay?

Some people just need to work

a little extra to earn your
trust.

It's who you are and I
love every bit of you.

- Have I told you how awesome
you are?

- No, but if you lived here
you could tell me everyday.

- I know, true.

- No, seriously though, I miss
you.

And call me crazy, but you seem
pretty

happy ever since you've been
back.

- It has been nice being home.

I love seeing Gram so happy and
I have

a really good feeling
about the Chesterwood, so.

- I think you're forgetting
something

or shall I say someone off the
list.

- Yeah, Lucas?

Things have been pretty great
with us,

even if he is friends with
she who shall not be named.

- No, dingdong, I'm talking
about me!

I make you happy!

- I was saving the best for
last.

- Uh huh.

- I was.

- Okay, are you ready to head
over

and impress everyone with
our sweet dance moves?

- Absolutely.

- Mm hm.
- Let's do this.

- Well, it's just been so
nice of you guys to come.

You know, every year at
Christmas we do this.

- You got this.

I'll see you in there.

- Wish me luck.

Excuse me, Tammy.

- Okay, I'll see you guys up
there.

Okay, Merry Christmas.

Hi.
- Hi.

I just wanted to make sure
that I wasn't too forward

when I was talking about a
higher bid, I--

- Oh.
- I want you to know

it's not all about money for me
either

and I care about the inn.

- It's fine, it's fine, it's
fine.

You know, I've been thinking
about this situation a lot

and you know and if I
really went with my gut--

- Yeah.
- I think I would, ooh,

oh, those look scrumptious.

- Oh, hi, yeah, I was just
gonna run those upstairs.

- Oh, no, that's okay.

Bert!

- Yes, dear?
- Take these upstairs.

- Yes, dear.

- Hey, listen, I'm sorry about

what happened with Ashley
earlier.

She can get carried away
sometimes.

- Sometimes?

She's a grown woman and she
acts like a 17 year old.

- You're absolutely right.

Look, I'm not trying to make
any excuses for her here,

but I mean, you know this town,
right?

Ashley's never left Hollybush
and she loves it here.

I mean, she got really upset
with me

when I moved to New York.

Probably didn't forgive me
until I decided to move back.

And again, I know this
doesn't explain everything,

but like many people here,
they're just really protective

on this town and the people in
it.

- I get it.

It's just she can be a little
frosty.

- That's a good way to put it.

- What makes you think

Your biscotti's pretty

- Just a gut feeling.

- Well, if I do get the inn then
yeah,

I'll be here for weeks at a

You sure know how to throw a
party.

- Oh, well, I couldn't
have done it without you.

I wanted to thank both
of you for everything.

I mean, with your decorating
skills and your cooking skills

you'd make a heck of a great
team.

Just something to think about.

Bert and me, we finally
had a chance to sit down

and chat about who should get
the inn.

And so, we've decided--

- Hello, everybody.

- Oh, Merry Christmas, Ashley.

- Enjoying the party, are we?

Perhaps a little too much even.

- I'm glad you
make it, Miss Clayton.

- Oh, I wouldn't miss this for
the world.

Oh, Mrs. O'Connor, have
you gotten a chance

to say goodbye to Amanda yet?

- What, what do you mean?

- Amanda Leeds is not here to
stay.

She's going back to
Miami after the holidays.

- Well, of course she would
wanna go back and get her things

before she moved back home.

Of course she would.

- Oh, no, no, you're
misunderstanding me.

Amanda does not intend to stay
here even

if you sell the Chesterwood to
her.

That's right.

She plans to buy the hotel and
then leave Hollybush again.

I guess she thinks she's too
good for us.

- I wanted to speak to
you privately about this,

but now that everyone is
listening.

I was planning on designating a
team

to this specific project, but
it was just because I have

to go back to Miami and
I can't really do both.

And so, I don't, and--

- No, no, no, now, now,
now, now, it's okay.

It's okay, it's okay.

Now, now, now, now.

I am gonna speak to Miss Leeds
privately.

Everyone just enjoy the party.

Go on, enjoy the party.

Bert, make more punch.

- Yes, dear.

- Well.

- Tammy, I swear, I was
planning on giving you

a full run through
before I assigned a team.

Plus I'd be only a
couple hours away because

I'd be transferring to
the Manhattan office,

so that I could be here
constantly

while we got things up and
running.

- And I really wish it had
happened that way, privately.

But what happened in there
doesn't look good on you, hun.

It certainly doesn't
look good on me and Bert.

I don't know how we could
sell you hotel right now,

'cause the town would riot.

They need a familiar face in
there.

- I'm so sorry.
- I...

Me, too.

I really didn't want it
to work out like this.

- Come on, Mans, please don't
go.

- I was just so close.

- Honey, you should be very,
very proud of yourself.

- Yeah, you would've gotten it
if it wasn't for that vixen.

- She's a troubled one that's
for sure.

- I'm not even mad at Ashley.

I mean, I expected it from her,
but Lucas?

I mean--

- Are you 100% sure that he's
the one

that told her that you
weren't staying for good?

- I don't know.

- Yeah, it's just weird.

He tried to run after you
when Tammy pulled you aside,

and when I cornered he said he
had

no idea how she found out.

I don't know, it seemed like
he was telling the truth.

- Well, how else would she have
found out?

- I dunno.

- Well, why don't you
stay at my house tonight

and you'll wake up with family
Christmas morning, okay?

- Okay, fine.

I'll stay, but just for tonight.

Tomorrow morning I'm gonna try
to find a train outta here.

But you know what we should do?

We should watch a Christmas
movie.

- Absolutely.

- Oh.

Okay, I have an idea.

- What is it?

- Scratch the movie.

This party's just getting
started.

foreign language]

- Hello, everybody.

My girl has something to say.

- Excuse me, I'm sorry to
interrupt.

I know a lot of you are
upset with me right now,

and I don't blame you.

Um, I shoulda told Tammy about
my plan from the beginning

instead of all of you finding
out at once.

And for that, I am truly,
genuinely sorry.

I am formally withdrawing my
offer

to purchase the Chesterwood.

And something that I don't
want spreading is that I don't

care about this town or the
people in it because I do.

This is my home.

And just because I moved away
doesn't mean

that I forgot where I came from.

I'm a small town girl at heart.

And if there's one thing you
need to know

about small town girls is that
they're

the most loyal people you'll
ever meet.

So, now, I have a question for
you all.

Are you ready to have a great
Christmas?

Okay, so, I brought a
friend with me tonight.

Some of the younger crowd might
know her.

So, please give a warm
welcome to GinnyZee!

- Are you sure you're gonna be
okay?

- Yeah, I mean, it sucks
for now, but I'll be fine.

- Well, I for one have got to
say

that you are the most
amazing, most ambitious,

most epic boss lady I have ever
met.

Seriously, how could you have
possibly

gotten cooler since high school?

- Well, I obviously learned it
from you.

- Oh, well, that totally makes
sense.

But let's talk about Gram's
dancing.

- Oh, my gosh.
- What was that?

- Amazing, she's so cute.

- Did you see that robot thing
she did?

- Oh, my gosh.
- I think she was

trying to one-up.
- Absolutely, she definitely.

- Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas, Grams.

- Oh, honey.

I hope you still like blueberry.

- Ah, you know I do.

- Great.

- Is Ernie here?

- Oh, no, not quite.

Um, he uh--

- What's going on, Grams?

- Nothing that I know of.

Uh, he, um, Ernie, um.

Would you, do you want some
juice?

- No thank you.
- Coffee?

Okay.

- Merry Christmas, kiddo.

- Merry Christmas, Ernie.

- Okay, so don't be mad
at him, be mad at me.

- I could never be mad at you,
Grams.

What's Lucas doing here?

- Well, I asked Ernie to pick
him up.

Lucas did not tell Ashley that

you're going back to the city.

I did.

- What?

- Well, not directly, but I
played bridge

with her grandmother and I was
talking about how wonderful

it was to have you here and how
much

I was gonna miss you when you
were gone.

Oh, boy, I didn't connect the
dots until early this morning.

I just feel terrible that I said
anything

and I'm so sorry if I
jeopardized your career.

- It's okay, you didn't do it on
purpose.

And honestly, I should've been
upfront

with Tammy from the beginning.

That's my fault.

- Lucas, would you like
to stay for breakfast?

- Could be fun.
- I'd love to.

Yeah, thank you.

- Great, well, I better just get
cooking.

- And I'll help you.

- Hi.
- Hey.

How are you doing?

- I'm okay.

I'm really happy for you.

You're an amazing chef.

You're gonna knock it outta the
park.

I wouldn't wanna deprive
Hollybush of that.

- Yeah, about that.

I, I may have dropped out of
the running and told Tammy

that I think you'd be a better
fit for the Chesterwood.

- Why, you've worked
so hard for this, too.

- 'Cause I want what's best for
this town

and I think you're it.

I actually told Tammy yesterday
morning before the party,

which is why I think she was so
rattled

because she suddenly went
from two buyers to zero.

- I can't believe you did that
for me.

I mean, isn't Tammy and
slash pretty much all

of Hollybush still upset
with me for leaving?

- Well, your friend actually
made quite the impression.

I mean, she started
geo-tagging all her posts,

started hyping the town, hyping
the inn,

I mean the bookings started
coming in like hotcakes.

Look, the inn's completely
booked till after Valentines
Day.

- Really?
- Yeah.

And Tammy, man, I've never
seen Tammy so happy before.

- That's amazing.

- That's you.

But listen, Tammy wants
to tell you rest herself,

but I can assure you the inn
is yours if you still want it.

- I'm getting the inn?

- You're getting the inn.

And you knew when were dancing?

- Yeah, yeah, maybe less of a
gut feeling

and more a secret surprise I
guess.

- I just wanna say--
- Why don't--

Get--
- No, I think--

- Time out.
- Stop.

- You go first.

- I just wanted to say thank
you for talking to Tammy.

She values what you have to say.

- Well, honestly, all I did was
help Tammy

realize what she already knew.

That you're the best
fit for the Chesterwood.

I mean, hands down, no question.

Right, you did the work and
you showed that you cared.

- Well, there was one thing
I wanted to run by you.

I was planning on talking to you
about it

if I got the Chesterwood.

It's just an offer and see if
you like it.

- Okay?

- I can handle the day-to-day
operations.

I'll be back and forth from New
York City.

- New York City?
- Mm hm.

That's where corporate is.

Just a couple hours away and
I'll be transferring there

once the deal goes through.

- So, I'll be seeing a
lot more of you then, huh?

- Mm hm.

Well, that's what I wanted to
ask you.

I mean, we'll need a head
chef for the restaurant.

I mean, if you know anyone
interested.

- Um, you know, maybe, maybe.

I mean, is there dental?

Are you serious?
- Yes.

- Wow, no, thank you.

That's incredible.

You're incredible.

- So, what did you wanna ask me?

- Really just wondering
when you're heading down

south again, 'cause I'm
assuming you gotta pack, right?

To move to New York City.

- Well, I was thinking of
staying here through New Years.

I pushed that big meeting with
my boss.

- Hm, that's interesting.

- What's interesting?

- No, just maybe we can
hang out a bit more now?

After all, if I'm gonna be your
head chef,

I mean, you're gonna have to
approve everything on the menu.

- Absolutely.
- Right, there's gonna be

a lotta taste testing.
- Lots of taste testing.

- And probably some
one-on-one cooking lessons.

- Mm hm, mm hm.
- Maybe?

- You really do know a
way to a girl's heart.

- It's biscotti.

There's just one more thing.

- Yeah?

- So, after that I
just said I'll see ya later.

- Ah, well, Merry Christmas,
everybody.

- Merry Christmas.
- Let's eat.

- Merry Christmas.
- Yes.

- Merry Christmas, everybody.
