Hey, Emily!

Eddie, hi!

How are you?

Welcome back to town.

Thanks.

I forgot about thoseChristmas lights.

They were alwaysso beautiful.

Still are.

A couple more days and I'll beready to flip the switch.

Oh, I can't wait.

Take care.

Catch you later.

Hey, good morning, Emily.

Oh, James.

It's kinda early for a banker,isn't it?

Yeah, I like the quiet.

Hey, I sent you a letterabout your grandmother's estate.

Can you come see mewhen you get it?

Yeah, sure.

Nice poinsettia.

Oh, thanks.

Thank you, Wally.

Such a beautiful obituaryyou wrote for Nonna.

Your grandmother meanta lot to this town.

I can't believe it's beenfour months.

Well, we're sure glad thatyou're back

and that the bakeryis open again.

Funny, she named it afteryou all those years ago

and here you are nowrunning it.

It's a lot to live up to.

You better come by.

Oh, you'll seeme tomorrow.

Good.

Stuck in traffic?

Sorry.

No, actually.

Chloe is learning to tieher shoe laces

and she will not let mehelp her.

Oh.

Oooh, hello.

Don't.

You are gonna eat usout of business!

You know, for a big city lawyeryou make a pretty good baker.

Well, I did have a prettygood teacher.

True.

How's the house, anyway?

Honestly, it is a little strangebeing there

without my grandmother.

Mmmhmm.

A little lonely, actually.

Well, with baking like thisyou won't be lonely for long.

And that is not why I movedback to Nelson Creek, either.

Hi!

Hello.

Are you open?

We're open.

Oh.

Please, you first.

Sorry.

Hi, come on in.

Ah, my father had onejust like it.

That was my grandmother's.

A family tradition, then?

Mmmhmm.

Hi, I'm Chey.

This is Emily, she's the ownerand the baker.

She used to be a lawyerbut she's better now.

I'm Emily.

Welcome to my bakery.

Gerard.

I should go get that.

A lawyer who is now a baker?

I have never met one before.

It's a pretty exclusive club.

What's your specialty?

Um, our almond macaroons.

We only make theseduring Christmas.

Mmm, incroyable!

Oh.

What's your secret?

Uh, they're double baked.

Genius.

What else do you recommend?

Um, well...

Nice sign.

I hate last minute shoppers.

Oh.

I'll keep that in mind.

Adele Atmore.

I'm the new store managerfor Forge Mart.

You're doing thisfor the town, right?

Yeah.

Excellent.

Put some lightson my sign here.

Forge Mart is a goodcorporate citizen, after all.

Ok.

Well, I'll rememberwhat you said.

Timing makesall the difference.

Indeed.

Timing is everything.

I must be going.

Ok, well... uh, come backwhen you run out of macaroons.

It is inevitable.

Au revoir.

He likes my macaroons.

You've got it bad.

And the whole time I was talkingto him

I kept thinking that I hadmet him before.

Do you ever get that?

Yeah.

It's called déja vu.

French, get it?

Woah, where'dthat come from?

That was not here before.

You didn't seethis get delivered?

You were standingright here.

No.

Is it for moi?

Seriously, snap out of it.

Ok, does it saywho it's from?

No, but it saysit's for you.

This is exciting.

What is this?

Well, open it up?

Um... oh.

Oh my gosh.

Here, help me.

Oh, wow.

Oh, it's a Christmas calendar.

Oh.

Oh my gosh, I- I used to geta Christmas calendar

every year when I was little.

It looks like it's home-made.

Come on, it's December 1st.

You can open the door.

What, now?

Are we gonna wait 'tilJanuary 1st?

Ok.

"I have a secret thatonly you'll know.

"Open each day andthe truth will show."

What?

I've got some stuffto take care of.

I'll be right back.

No sweat, boss.

It's kinda slow today, anyway.

Hey, what about the calendar?

It's December 2nd.

Not 'til I get back.

And stop eating all the profits!

That's asking a lot.

This one is $65.

Oh, come on.

It's nice, grandma.

See, Pam? The kid likes it.

Fine.

Sold.

-You stay here,
-I'll go pay for it.

Follow me.

Emily!

Chloe!

Hi.

It's Christmas tree day.

It is?

Emily. Hello again.

Hi, Gerard.

We are bumping intoeach other everywhere.

Yeah, well that's the good thingabout a small town.

It's small.

Everybody's nearby.

Run out of macaroons yet?

They vanished.

I found them inspiring.

Just like the bakerwho made them.

Can I have a quarter?

Oh, you have a beautifuldaughter.

She's not my mommy,she's my Emily.

Yeah.

Delivery is an extra20 bucks.

20 bucks? Not a chance.

Alright. Merry Christmas.

Speaking of 20 bucks.

Oh, uh, thank you.

Thank you.

You know, I know people saythis all the time,

but I feel likewe've met before.

We did.

Yesterday.

Oh.

It's uh, Emily, right?

Yes.

You look like a girlin need of a tree.

Well, it's Christmas,

I guess I should geta tree.

Yeah.

I'll leave you to chooseyour tree.

-Uh, I'll see you soon,
-I hope.

Ok.

Maybe next time I see youI'll remember where we met.

For you I'll even throw ina free delivery.

Chuck, by the way.

Ok.

Now, there's all kinds of trees

but my personal favouriteis the blue spruce.

How come I don't getfree delivery?

Grandma, can I havea quarter?

There you go, honey.

So, what are my options?

Look, Emily, my handsare tied.

You either sell the houseor the bakery,

otherwise the bank's gonna moveon your grandmother's estate

and force a sale.

I don't get it.

Why did she have to havea loan that big, anyways?

How did you managelaw school?

I don't see howthat's relevant.

I mean, how did you payfor it?

The college fund my grandmotherhad set aside for me.

You're kidding.

I think you should sellthe house.

You'll get a good pricefor it.

Besides, you'll struggle to sellthe bakery in a town this size,

now that you have competition.

Competition?

You know the Forge Mart hasa new store manager, right?

Yeah, but they-

they truck in their breadfrom Middleton.

It's not fresh.

They built a brand newin-store test kitchen.

The bakery openedthis morning.

I don't see you have any otheroption here, Emily.

How much time do I have?

Until the end of the month.

You can always go backto being a lawyer.

It's a little late for that now.

(p.a. system)Bonjour, shoppers.

While in store today don'tforget to visit Nelson Creek's

new and trés authentiqueFrench bakery.

Stop by and havea free sample.

You're sure to say "ooh la la".

Gerard?

Emily. Hello.

You're right about the benefitsof small towns.

Did you find a tree?

You- you're the new baker.

Voila.

Why didn't you tell me?

Was I meant to?

Oh my gosh.

Now I know where I met you.

You used to have a bakerynear Central Park in New York.

Yes, how do you know this?

I interned there one summer.

Hold on.

You came into my bakeryto spy on me yesterday?

Where I used to work they wouldcall that corporate espionage.

Espionage?

Yeah.

You were trying to beall charming and French-

But I am French.

Just so you could talk meout of my recipes.

But that's not your recipe.

It's an eclair au chocolat.

I know what it is.

Who'd you steal this one from?

I'm a baker.

I like to talk baking.

I'm sorry if you foundthat charming.

I did not saythat it was charming.

I said that you were tryingto be charming.

Oh, excuse moi.

Where do your recipescome from?

My grandmother.

Aha.

That is not the point.

So, what do you think?

It's ok.

If you like pretentious.

Pretentious?

You don't know this town.

These people here,

they like things that arestraight forward, reliable,

and especially, honest.

What about style?

Elegance?

Panache?

Panache.

In Nelson Creek.

Good luck with that.

Maybe you don't know this townas well as you think.

You're a snake.

I thought people were supposedto be friendly in small towns.

Well, we're not.

Welcome to Forge Mart, didwe meet your expectations-

Who was that?

Another patissier.

She owns the bakeryacross the street.

So that's Emily.

Was she here stealingyour ideas?

I should probably ban herfrom the store.

She's a good baker.

If she didn't have her own placeI'd hire her.

Well, keep it up.

When we're the only bakeryin town maybe we will.

It almost looks likewe're in France.

You know, we should roll thisout chain-wide.

Imagine your baking in everyForge Mart across the county.

I could make you the WolfgangPuck of pastry.

This could be our ticketout of this dump.

"I have a secret that onlyyou'll know.

"Open each day and the truthwill show."

Cool, huh?

Do you know who sent it?

Nope.

But I think Emily's gota secret admirer.

Or something.

Yeah.

Hey, can we open door 2?

Hey!

Ah, the woman of the hour.

This is quite a gift, Emily.

It is.

Sorry, Wally's the firstcustomer of the day.

Oh, of course.

May I take a few photosfor the paper?

It'll be free publicityfor you.

Yes, by all means.

Looks like I'm gonna needall the help I can get.

So was the new bakeryany good?

Yeah, and you are not gonnabelieve who's running it.

The slime ball that camein the other day

asking all those questions.

You mean that gorgeousFrench guy?

Exactly.

And he's not that good-looking.

Emily, a little closerto the calendar?

He stole my macaroon recipe!

Didn't you give it to him?

Details!

And you know whatthe crazy thing is?

I finally rememberedhow I knew him.

He had his own bakeryin New York City.

Can you believe that?

Yeah, I interviewed himyesterday for the paper.

He's won all kinds of awards.

Now he's gonna put meout of business.

Put that on his list.

Well, why don't we opentoday's door?

Yes, why don't we?

What door is it?

I hope it's good news.

"Each day bringsa fresh surprise."

No kidding.

"May this capture the interestI see in your eyes."

Yeah, you totally havea secret admirer.

Mm, yeah.

I thought 12 puppieswas a big story.

This is going to be huge.

Oh man, what a photo.

-Wally can write,
-I'll give you that.

But he's no photographer.

Mmmhmm.

-Oh, that's a lovely poinsettia,
-Ivy!

Edna, Pearl, what's going on,ladies?

Can we see it?

You're one lucky girl.

Who wouldn't wanta secret admirer?

Do you know who it is?

I don't.

Come on in.

Alright, easy everyone.

One at a time, please.

Come on in.

Just like in a romance novel.

Every day, a new door.

Do you know who he is?

I don't, but we're gonnafind out.

What does today's message say?

Oh, forget that.

Let's just find out who sent it.

No!

Woah, woah!

Easy boss, let's thinkabout this.

Any girl would loveto be in your position.

A secret admirer at Christmas?

I mean, who sends giftslike this?

Let's not spoil it.

And also, look at all the peopleit's brought into the store.

It could be good for business.

Come on, Emily.

Some of us gals haven't hadthis much excitement

since the saloon brought in aladies night a few years back.

I think what Edna is tryingto say is that we all could use

a little bit of romanceat this time of year.

Ok.

Alright, day 3, door 3.

"Christmas is a time to buildon your dreams,

but some of life's choicesare not what they seem."

That's just so beautiful.

I can't take it.

Sorry, James.

Could you give this to Emilyfor me, please?

Are those Nonna's macaroons?

You betcha.

Give me a dozen.

Me too.

I never thought we'd seethem again.

Business looks good.

Oh, hey.

Hi James.

Someone must really thinka lot of you.

The question is who.

Any ideas?

We don't get to chooseour secret admirers.

Oh, by the way,this is for you.

It's-

Oh, Emily,

some of us wantto discuss certain details

about the calendar.

Ok.

You're welcome.

We've decided that it would bea good idea

if the calendar was openedat the same time each day.

Yes.

Lunch time would be the mostconvenient, don't you think?

Ok, um...

so that's one day at a timeuntil the 24th.

Hashtag "the ChristmasCalendar".

Hashtag "the ChristmasCalendar"?

What's the problem?

It's time to turn up the heat.

I've got a back-up on mykey ring in case you lose it.

Good decision, boss.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Huh.

My grandmother had onejust like this.

Unbelievable.

I'm sorry.

Hi.

From Emily's Bakery acrossthe street.

Market research.

Thank you!

Bye.

This town is too smallfor the both of us.

We're not in New York anymore.

New York, bien sur.

Now I remember you.

You're raspberry lady.

Raspberry lady?

Oui.

You're the only personwho ever ordered

a charlotte aux framboisesand then asked for us

to remove the framboises.

Raspberries are overrated.

Besides, I think it's a goodthing that I know

what I like andwhat I don't like.

At least they like me.

Well, they've alwaysliked me.

Does it have to bea competition?

A competition?

Bring it on.

Well, if you want a competition,

I hear there's a Christmas fairin a couple of weeks.

Perfect.

I'll get a booth,you get a booth,

and then we'll see whothe town likes better.

If you insist.

I do.

Ok.

Good.

Fine.

Excellent.

What a jerk!

She doesn't mean you.

What happened?

The gall of that man.

If he thinks that he canwaltz into this town

and steal all our customers,

he has got another thing coming.

Thank you.

Come back again.

Please.

Cookie?

It's gonna be ok.

These are really good.

Here you go.

Thanks Art.

So who do you think gave Emilythat calendar?

Good question.

What's today's message say?

"Where people gather,where smiles are shared,

"may your heart runneth overfor those who care."

Everybody gathers here,maybe it's you.

I haven't said "runneth"in my life.

Until now.

But the calendar did give mea good idea.

Guess Emily's secret admirer,win the pool.

Good one, Art.

Five bucks, huh?

Yep.

I'm in.

You really think it's me?

-You have a good imagination,
-Wally.

Oh, Nonna, I wish you were hereto tell me

what to do right now.

Wait.

And... now!

Ok.

The moment of truth.

"Life is a series of pathsand crossroads.

"If you stay straight and trueyou'll have love bestowed."

Who is this guy?

I think the answersare in the clues.

"May this capture the interestI see in your eyes."

Interest, soundslike a banker, could be James.

You think it's James?

He did give me that poinsettia.

-And "To build on your dreams",
-Eddie is a builder.

Well, then whatabout today's clue?

"Life is a series of pathsand crossroads."

Paths and crossroads?

I don't know who thatcould be.

Your grandmother would bevery proud, dear.

And also happy to know thatyou have a man in your life.

But which one is the question.

Oh, exactly.

It's like a real life mysteryhas arrived in our town.

So exciting.

Well, I guess we don't wantto find out

who it is too soon, right?

I have an idea.

Oooh.

Ok, so James likes shortbread.

What does Eddie like?

Uh... definitely cinnamon buns.

Ok.

Yeah.

Ok, what about Chuck?

Oh, give him a muffin.

Ok, remember, you findanything out...

keep it to yourself.

How did it go, Sherlock?

I got nothing.

Good.

Oh, hello.

What a surprise.

Chloe made you a gift

and she couldn't waitto give it to you.

You did?

Well, come on in.

Where's your Christmas tree?

I'm working on that.

I'll take your thing.

Oh, one second.

Hi.

Hey...

Emily.

As promised.

Ok, yeah.

Come on in.

Uh, Chuck, right?

Yeah.

In the corner.

Not bad, huh?

Great!

Um... thank you.

Thank you.

Now you can openyour present.

I can.

I'm so excited.

Oh, what a beautiful angel.

Did you make this for me?

I love it.

Will you put it on the tree?

It's just perfect.

Aw...

Thank you.

Ok pumpkin.

Ok.

Oh, we're actuallygoing caroling,

do you want to comewith us?

Yeah!

Sounds like fun.

Let's do it.

Ok.

Did you see who's here?

Yep.

He sings good, too.

Eddie sings good.

It figures.

How do you mean?

Women.

Ah yes, they are a mystery.

You got that right, pal.

Tonight Miss Muffin over thereinvites me to come out singing,

then she spends the whole timewith Mr. Jingle Keys.

Can you believe that?

Come on.

I see.

Unbelievable.

-Nelson Creek Echo,
-Wally Walters speaking.

You mean the TV station?

That's right.

You got something abouta Christmas Calendar

in your town?

Calendar?

Oh, yeah!

Sure!

On Christmas Eve.

It's all in my paper,the Nelson Creek Echo.

Let's do an interview.

Ok, uh, it's Walters,w- with an "s".

And I'm also the mayor.

This story is trending,Mr. Walters?

Trending?

Oh no, is that bad?

♪ I won't let go...

♪ All over...

♪ I won't let go...

♪ All over...

Very nice.

There is a lot of um,

how you say,talent in this town.

Yeah, not so much.

What's with nose ring girl?

Chey?

She's great.

Real good mother to Chloe.

Mmm.

What about plant lady?

Ivy.

She's like a beautiful flower.

Very good.

So she waits then fora talented gardener, no?

Maybe.

I guess that leaves the baker.

So what you should be askingyourself is,

who do you want the calendarto be from?

Exactly.

But that's the problem,though.

It's like James said.

I don't get to choosemy secret admirer.

He said that to you?

Yeah.

But I will tell youone thing,

whoever it is I bet he'sin this room.

What about Chuck?

At least you knowwhat you'd be getting.

Exactly.

I still think it's Eddie.

Eddie.Oh, he's sweet.

So Em, is it true that menin the city

just walk right up to youand start talking?

No.

Well they- some do, but notif they really like you.

What about Art?

Art?

Bakers and bartendersare not really compatible.

The hours, they don't work.

Ok. Don't forget James.

James, yeah.

He's quiet.

But I think there'sa lot more going on

underneath the surface.

I know he likes plants.

Plants. He does.

You would know that.

Ladies?

Compliments of the gentleman.

Oh.

Why is he getting us drinks?

It's a long-held tradition

amongst the malesof the species.

Buying a female a drinkgets her attention.

I think he has her attention.

Ok, sowhat about Gerard?

No, I don't know how anybodycould like him.

He's not so bad,

I mean, besides trying to putyou out of business.

How do you say "snake"in French?

Cheers.

Ok.

Ivy.

What does today's cluesay again?

"Words say who we are,words set us apart,

"but the truest for you arethe words from my heart."

Oh. Words from my heart.

That's exactlywhat he's gonna get.

Oh, woah, boss,maybe you should-

Wait! Emily...

This is not gonna be pretty.

No.

Getting nervous?

About what?

I think I gotta goto the rest room.

The Christmas fair?

Just because you've gotall your fancy baking tricks

doesn't mean that I'm notgonna give you

a run for your money.

I learned a lotfrom my grandmother

and I've got a few tricksup my sleeve, too.

I'm sure.

You're very talented.

See, that.

That, that is that thingthat you do.

You- you say nice thingsand you make people think

that they trust youbut you don't mean it.

You really have me wrong.

I doubt it.

You do.

Let me prove it.

Come to my kitchennext week.

We are two bakers,let's bake together.

Why would I wantto do that?

So you know the truthabout me.

What else is thereto know?

That I'm not here to put youout of business.

I'm just a friendwho loves to bake.

Look.

I know that this town is toosmall for us to be enemies.

So you'll come then?

See how this works.

I doubt Adelewill be ok with it.

I hear she's banned mefrom the store.

Don't worry about her.

We'll do it after hours.

Tell you what.

You come and bakewith me,

I'll give you my recipefor charlotte aux framboises.

Without the framboises.

This is gonna turn out to bea terrible mistake, isn't it?

Next up, Emily.

Speaking of mistakes.

Hello?

Hi pumpkin, how's my girl?

Maybe.

Well, why don't you writea letter to Santa for it?

No, don't ask grandma.

Hey-

Ok, uh... oh.

Imbecile!

What's wrong?

There's no gold leaf.

Did you forget to order it?

No.

What do you take me for?

A baker withoutenough customers,

or haven't you noticed?

My baking is not the problem.

I know.

I think this situation callsfor more drastic action.

Watch the merchandise!

Hey Em, what youup to tonight?

Baking with the enemy.

I'll see you later.

See you.

I had something specialin mind

but I couldn't getthe ingredients.

Chocolate ganache trufflesseem pretty special to me.

Slow down, cowboy.

C'est fait.

Keep stirring, Julia Child.

Ok.

This is so good!

You're gonna have to give methe recipe for this, too.

Should I also bake yourentry into the Christmas fair?

Would you?

So, Gerard.

How did a talented bakerlike you

end up in a small townlike this?

I grew up in a littleFrench village.

I'm really a small town boyat heart.

So now I'm here.

Working for Forge Mart.

I would love to goto France.

You should.

It's beautiful.

What about you?

You used to be a lawyer.

I did and I worked very hardto be one

and then it turned out thatit wasn't what I wanted

and um... you know,

I was gonna move backbefore my grandmother died

but I waited too long.

Don't be too hardon yourself.

Time makes decisionsfor us all.

We do good work.

For once I don't disagreewith you.

Oh, so does that mean you arewarming up to my French charm?

Oh, don't get too carried away,monsieur.

Mmm.

Delicious, no?

Thank you so much.

Um...

I really learned a lot.

I- I do have to go,

I have a really early morning

and I haven't even figured outwhat I'm baking

for the Christmas fair and...so...

Do you want some help?

Uh...

After all, it doesn'thave to be a competition.

A competition.

I love that.

Bring it on, my friend.

Well...

The French way.

Bye.

Chey, what did you order?

Hello, Ivy.

Gerard.

Let me guess,

you need some flowers.

Ok, well the flowers you choosesay a lot about you.

Ah, no, that's the wrongimpression.

So more warm than hot.

Exactly.

Uh, "hi" not "hello".

A look, not a leer.

Right.

A smile, not a smirk.

Something that says"see, I'm not a total jerk".

I'm sorry.

I have just the thing.

Can I count on your discretion?

I can't stay long.

What did I miss?

We've got it narrowed downto four contenders.

Chuck, Edward, James-

And Gerard.

Gerard.

I canhear you ladies.

He arrived in town the sameday as the calendar.

Agatha Christie would callthat suspicious.

Mmmhmm.

And she knew himfrom New York.

Well, that's it then.

Well, if you want to ask meI think it's James.

What makes you thinkit's James?

Because.

The clues, they're so beautifuland eloquent,

I don't think Chuck or Eddiecould write those.

Here, have one. I made themfor the fair.

Oh.

I think they're the best thingI've ever made.

Mmm.

Wonderful.

I found your gold leaf.

Hey, Gerard.

So this is how you triedto win!

You should be ashamedof yourself.

What're you talking about?

Well, what do you call that?

Uh, chocolate mousse cakeswith gold leaf.

I know what it is.

Ok, good.

Now stop it.

You're scaring my customers.

Tell me you orderedthat gold leaf.

No, Chey orderedthe gold leaf.

I thought you orderedthe gold leaf.

You didn't orderthe gold leaf?

Voleur!

Thief!

I'm so sorry.

Who do you think you are?!

A baker!

A baker who stolemy macaroon recipe!

Excuse moi.

I'm sorry I also make doublebaked almond macaroons.

Is there a patenton this recipe?

You made yoursafter you ate mine!

At least I'm an original!

Ha!

Until you stole my gold leaf.

I did not!

It was in my bakery.

It's not yoursand you know it.

Well, possession isnine-tenths of the law.

Oh, make up your mind.

Are you a lawyeror a baker?

Because right now you arebeing bad at both.

These are for you!

And you'll never guesswho they're from.

Read the card.

"We do good work.

-"Let's bake together soon.
-Gerard."

Do you really thinkthat buying me a drink

and some nice flowers is gonnamake up for the fact

that you're trying to put meout of my business?!

I guess not.

If you want to win the Christmasfair that bad,

I concede.

Brutal.

Totally.

Yes, I'd like to report aserious health violation.

Hello?

Hi Emily, it's James.

Oh, hi.

I figured you'd be upalready.

So any thoughts on what wetalked about?

Only every day.

It's already December 22nd.

We're running out of time.

Yeah, I- it's just...

things have been so crazy.

All the interestin the calendar,

the store has gottenreally busy

and people are even comingin from Middleton.

Yeah, I've noticed.

Your store's bank deposit isthrough the roof this month.

Too bad you couldn't keep thiscalendar thing going all year.

You'd really havesomething then.

I'm not sure I could take it.

Um... look.

I can come in after Christmasand sign the papers.

Sure.

I really am sorryabout this, Emily.

Especially at Christmas.

Yeah. Ok, thanks.

Bye.

Either of youbowled much?

No, never.

I was county championas a teenager.

Oooh, a ringer.

Ok, only five more pairsto go.

Let's see who's up next.

These two are ready.

It's James and Eddie.

They're not far apart,it's Pam and Art.

These two are swell,it's Chuck and Adele.

My my, hey hey,it's Ivy and Chey.

Oooh.

And that leavesGerard and Emily.

And also remember the highestsingle game score

wins this year's mostvaluable bowler

and takes homethis beautiful trophy.

Ready, set, bowl.

You probably won't be ableto get both of those

so just go for one of them.

Gooooooooal!

So, I hear you wonthe Christmas fair.

Gerard, look.

I really did not stealyour gold leaf.

If you don't believe me,c'est la vie.

Ok, one more game to go,we'll take a break,

tally up our scores so far.

Having fun?

I'm thinking about going pro.

I'm gonna checkon Chloe.

Do you mind grabbing mea soda?

No problem.

It looks like you could usea new bowling partner.

Easy, Chuck.

Wow.

I never figured you for a stuckup, big city kinda girl.

She's not.

And how is it anyof your business?

'Cause you just made itmy business.

Thanks, Eddie.

No worries.

Did you see that?

Yeah.

Ok, it's the last round.

And the current scoreleader is,

with eight strikesand two spares

-for a very impressive 257,
-Adele.

Ok.

Your goal is to get one strike.

If I do, you answer a question.

What kinda question?

A baking question.

Fine.

But I'll be surprised if youget to ask one.

When did you learn to bake?

When I was five.

My grandmother helped mebake cookies.

I was hooked.

What kind?

Ah, ah, you already gotyour question.

You have to bowlanother strike.

They were gingerbread men.

For Christmas.

Yeah.

Yes!

It's unbelievable,six in a row.

It's my natural athleticism.

What's your favourite thingto bake?

Bread.

I like the smell of itfresh out of the oven.

Me too.

Seven over here!

So how're we doing?

You're up by a strike, doll.

I am not your doll.

You got this.

Woah.

Wow, yeah.

I can't believe it!

I like this game.

You have no idea what you'reabout to do, do you?

Ten strikes in a row,that's a perfect game.

That's good, no?

-So, if I get a strike,
-I win?

Gerard, people can bowltheir entire lives

and never ever geta perfect score.

If you don't believe mejust look at the people

and their faces behind you.

Ok, that probably wasn'ta great pep talk.

-As you say in English,
-Que sera, sera.

You have a problem.

What kind of problem?

A calendar problem?

Why Chuck, you surprise me.

A chance to ruin her big day.

Hold on to that thought.

I have another idea,

but I might get backto you on that.

I can't believe-

Wooooah!

I think you're lying.

I think you've bowled before.

What're you gonna put-

No, no, I've never done it.

What're you gonna putin these?

I don't know, maybedouble baked macaroons.

"It's the season of love,the best time of the year,

"when all Christmas bellsring in the cheer."

Who is this guy?

You know, boss,

if this is too much we canend it right now.

I can wait one more day.

Fine.

What's wrong?

If this secret admirer knewwhat was going on in my life

it probably wouldn't wantto be my secret admirer.

Are you kidding?

You rock.

You've traveled,

you own your own business,

you're an amazing baker.

And, oh yeah,you're a lawyer.

I'm probably gonna haveto sell the bakery.

And my grandmother's house,too.

What?

Nonna went into debt payingfor my education.

Her estate has to pay it backand, um...

the bank is forcing a sale.

We should get that bell fixed.

David Rosalis.

Health and Food SafetyServices.

Ok.

We've received a complaintabout a series of violations

on your premises.

Are you the owner?

Uh, yes.

Who complained?

That's confidential.

But it's two daysbefore Christmas.

Busy times.

People cut corners.

That's when things get sloppy.

Well, that's not possible.

She's, like, super picky.

I know.

Please show meto your prep area.

Unbelievable.

May I see your license?

It's on the wall over there.

Ok.

Let's get started.

Well?

You're right.

Spotless.

Isn't there a market in town?

Yeah. And it has a bakery.

May I help you?

Gerard, I thought I sawan inspector.

Health and Food Safety Services.

Ah, I'm Adele Atmore,store manager.

Welcome to Forge Mart.

I'm here to do aspot inspection.

Here?

I thought-

You thought what?

Well, of course.

Go right ahead.

We at Forge Mart make ita point to be in full compliance

at all times.

Oh, bien sur, of course.

Good.

Let's start with the bakery.

Can I see your license?

Sure, but all that'sin my office.

I mean, your license for foodpreparation on premises.

The one you're required todisplay in your food prep area.

Mmm... have you been makingfood in the store for long?

Do you actually havea food prep license?

The store never neededone before.

Unbelievable.

Incroyable.

Hi Emily.

Uh, here's the, uh, TV crewI was telling you about.

Hi there.

-Wanda O'Malley,
-I'm from the news.

Hi.

Ok, so here's the angle.

Single girl saved fromloneliness by her secret admirer

on Christmas Eve.

Ok.

Here. Come on in.

Here it is.

Safely locked away.

Not that there's any crime herein our little town, of course.

You are a lucky girl.

Let's have you over here.

Ok.

Perfect.

So, what's it like beingsingle with a secret admirer?

Well, um-

Are you nervousabout tonight?

Uh, I'm trying notto think about it.

And you're sure you don't knowwho it's from?

Nope-

What was that?

Oh my gosh!

Chuck?

Help me.

Here in the sleepy hamletthat is Nelson Creek

on the day that the secretadmirer is to be revealed,

the location of the Christmascalendar has been the scene

of an overnight break-in.

There's probably aninnocent, um, explanation.

Chuck, please tell me whatyou're doing here.

What're you doing here?

Are you ok?

I'm gonna call the police.

No. No police.

This is just a misunderstanding.

No, we can't have a scene.

Well, it's too late for that.

Spill, Chuck.

You realize I'm a lawyer, right?

Wanda O'Malley from the news.

So, how does it feel to becaught at the scene, Chuck?

Is this your first offense?

Or are you a serial criminal?

How many bakerieshave you broken into?

Adele made me do it.

Adele?!

Alright, I thinkthat's everything.

I've just heardabout Chuck.

And Adele.

Well, Adele's got biggerproblems now,

an inspector shut her down.

What?

Shut down the market?

Just the bakery.

She forgot to get a license.

That's great.

That's awesome news.

We did it.

You won, boss.

So how long is the bakeryshut down?

For good?

I don't know, but it meansGerard's out of a job.

Oh.

(p.a. announcement)Happy holidays, shoppers.

Forgot to orderyour Christmas bird?

Don't worry, we have plentyof Tofurkey.

It tastes just like chicken.

Everything does tastelike chicken.

What?

Is this in here?

$500 to the winner.

Seriously? Someone bet on me?

Eddie?

Chey is the lucky one there.

What about James?

I think he's keen on Ivy,

and nobody likespoinsettias that much.

Gosh, what if it's Chuck?

I told you, it's Gerard.

He's artistic, the calendaris a work of art,

he speaks eloquently, the notesare beautifully written.

Thank you, everyone.

Thank you all for coming.

And thank you to Wanda O'Malley

for covering thisexciting event.

I know you're as anxiousas I am about today.

Not only is it Christmas Eve,

but it's the day the secretadmirer is revealed.

So without further ado,

let's ask our beautiful bakerEmily to open the last door.

I feel like I should saysomething profound.

Um, first I wanna say thank youfor welcoming me back to town

the way you have.

It really means a lot to me.

And, uh, your interest in thiscalendar has been incredible.

I don't think the person whosent it expected all of this.

Um, and I also want to saythank you to Chey,

because if it wasn't for CheyI would have opened this thing

23 days ago.

And lastly I'd liketo publicly thank

whoever sent the calendarbecause, as you can see,

it has been a giftfor the entire town.

Here we go.

Also, Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas!

Open it!

"Dear Emily, this calendarwas my way of spending...

"one last Christmas with you.

"Remember, I'll always beyour Christmas angel.

"Love, Nonna."

" Who's Nonna?"

Her grandmother.

And the winner is Gerard.

Anybody seen Gerard?

It's the most beautiful thing.

How did she send it?

It's the most beautifulgift ever.

Emily.

How is it to not havea secret admirer?

Are you disappointed thatyou're alone at Christmas?

I'm not alone.

So it wasn't from you?

Of course not.

But I thought that-

Hey, if I was interested in her

I'd buy pastries, not plants.

Gerard!

Where were you?

You won.

You won.

I don't know how you figuredit was her grandmother

who sent it, but...

come for a drink.

I'll buy you one.

Thanks.

I'll catch up with you later.

Ok.

Thank you, dear.

Well, I didn't see that coming.

That's why they call itthe news.

It never grows old.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, darlin'.

Merry Christmas.

What a night.

Well, I'll see you tomorrowat dinner.

Ok.

Bring a date.

Merry Christmas, boss.

Merry Christmas.

You should get that bell fixed.

Gerard.

I just heard the news.

That I don't actually havea secret admirer?

No, no.

Your grandmother.

Her amazing gift.

Uh, Nonna?

Nonna.

Thank you.

I heard you're out ofa job.

I'm sorry.

No, you're not.

Too much competitionin this town, anyway.

It's a good thing you wonthat bet.

How did you know thatthe calendar would be

from my grandmother?

The calendar reminded meof the cash register.

So I put her.

Oh.

Actually, the truth is...

I couldn't bet on anyone

who might really beyour secret admirer.

I'm not sure what you mean.

Remember the first dayI came in?

Uh huh.

I saw you and I thought...

c'est pas possible.

A beautiful, smart, talentedwoman who can bake?

Then why did you try to put meout of business?

I didn't.

But I found out too latethat's what stores like

Forge Mart do.

-What I'm trying to say,
-Emily is...

I'm your secret admirer.

Read this.

"We do good work."

"Let's bake together soon."

I'd like that.

I was hoping it was you.

The turkey is ready!

Come on!

What?!

Chloe, are you gonna havedinner with us?

Where's the angelI made you?

Oh, here it is.

Look what I found.

Hmm.

I thought I only hadone of those.

Ok, go sit with your mom.

This is really delicious.

Yes, Pam, I really appreciateyou coming over here

and cooking all this food.

It's so amazing.

If this is your last Christmasin this house

we have to do it right.

I know.

I'm just gonna miss this houseso much.

Can you at least keepthe bakery?

Oh my god, I totally forgot.

Yesterday, before all ofthe craziness started,

the headquarters of Forge Martcalled me

and they asked me if I wouldsupply their store here.

Emily, you know what?

Come see me next week.

With a contract like thatI think I can find a way

for you to stay in this housefor many Christmases to come.

Are you serious?

James, that would beso amazing.

Almost as amazingas your sweater.

Let's have a toast.

Uh, how do you say...

Cheers.

Cheers!

Sounds like you'll be busynow, Em.

Yeah, I guess I'm gonna have tostart coming to work on time...

Good.

I am also going to haveto hire another baker.

What do you think?

It is inevitable.
