- Please make sure
your seatbelt is fastened.

We ask that you keep
your seatbelt fastened

while seated in case
we encounter

some unexpected turbulence.

- Excuse me.
Excuse me.

Hey.

You've lit the spark.
Might as well keep

the fire burning.
- Ma'am, I've just served you.

- I don't need anything
complicated... just another

one of these teeny tiny
bottles of bourbon... two.

Mm... three?

- I'll catch you
on the way back.

- I used to be afraid
of flying.

I couldn't help but think
of how this big metal tube

was probably gonna crash
right back to Earth.

I still think about
how the plane might crash.

In fact, this one
actually will,

and I just don't care anymore.

My name's Allison Pyke...
At least, that's my name now.

And I'm already dead, so
I could crash all the damn day,

and I don't care at all.

There's a gremlin on the wing.

Kidding.
The engine's on fire.

- This is your captain
speaking.

We're having some
slight engine trouble,

and we'll be returning
to the airport shortly.

- What's happening?
- I don't know.

- Baby.
Baby, can you hear me?

Are you there?
Hello?

- Hey, any luck
on that bourbon?

I'm an angel now.

Yup, seriously.

But being an angel
isn't a reward.

It's a punishment.

Like, when you're an all-around
great person,

you die, you go up there.

When you're like a B, B-minus
person, you become an angel

and get a sentence on Earth,

and that sentence
is a number of points,

and you get points
when you perform a miracle.

It's a little like
a prison with time off

for good behavior.

You know,
but it could be worse.

I never flew first class
when I was alive.

Hell, I never got
out of Nebraska.

The second I'm old enough,
I'm getting the hell out

of Nebraska.

Patrick.

New York.

And this is me.
Yep, I used to be

a white girl with a uni-brow.

from "Big."

was all wrong ♪

- Wow.
This is a truly terrible gift.

Something worse for you.

- ♪ This Christmas
- Wow!

These are the kind
truckers pee in.

I'm gonna go see if they work.

- So I was a weird white girl
with a uni-brow,

and somehow, I had no idea
Patrick had a major crush

on me... until a few
Christmases later.

I'm sorry I'm late.

- Can I kiss you?

he got me a pair

I found my soul mate
when I was 15.

We were excited to spend

the rest of our lives
together,

which turned out
to be way shorter for me

than for Patrick.

But back to our story.

- We lost both the engines!

We're gonna make
an emergency landing!

- Here's a good travel tip:

they don't charge
for sandwiches on flights

if everyone thinks
they're gonna die.

- I love you so much.

I'll see you
in heaven, my angel.

- If only it were that easy.

Oh! Here we go.
- Brace for impact.

Hi, guys.
Sorry about this.

I'm taking over.

hundreds of lives

all by himself...

- So I landed in the river.
Sue me.

I'm not a professional pilot.
But they needed me.

They needed someone
who could get things done

and didn't care
if they lived or died...

'cause you can't die twice.

This was 2008,
right after I had died.

40,000 down, 10,000 to go.

I was on my way out

have slowed down... a lot.

In the past nine years,

any points at all.

Jason, my angel advisor,
thinks it's because

I have a bad attitude.

a one-miracle wonder

You know, but I say screw them.

It's not my fault.

You know, just that
you start work on time.

- Well, Connie, I told you,
with my schedule,

I need a floating
15-minute window.

- Yeah, but you're
two hours late.

- Well, from my perspective,

it's an hour 45.

It's kind of a raw deal
being an angel.

I mean, we're charged
with performing

these important
miracles on earth,

but we still need
food and shelter

and all that crap, and so
we have to have jobs too.

I mean, you'd think someone
in the afterlife

could at least pay
my credit card bills.

Ugh.

This music is total garbage.

Oh, my God,

what are you doing?
I like that song.

What are you,
Scrooge in skinny jeans?

- They're just
all so stupid.

And the worst one is
"12 Days of Christmas."

- Well, I guess I'm
an idiot then,

because my grandma and I would
sing it together every December

up until she died,
and it's really the only thing

that I have left of her.

No, I'm, uh...

I'm Jason Biggs.

I did that big teen movie
in the late '90s.

Okay, well, I did many
other movies.

Also some TV shows...

uh, Broadway...
A couple of times.

Also off-Broadway.
Off-off-Broadway once, but...

some modeling
when I was a kid.

Nothing? Huh.

I usually bat 1,000

- And you died when I died?
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

I died many years ago
at the ripe old age

of 96 in Ukraine.
Yeah, I didn't start acting

until I came back
to Earth as an angel.

- You're an angel?
- Yeah.

Most celebrities are
actually angels in disguise.

Yeah, it, uh...

She's an angel.
She's a good one.

- Yep.

That's angel court.

- Like "Judge Judy"?
'Cause, you know,

I always imagined God

like an all-knowing Judge Judy.

- It is nothing like
"Judge Judy."

No, angel court is more
like "Judge Joe Brown."

Mm-hmm.
Okeydokey,

who's ready to get
their new body?

That's a rhetorical question.
The answer is you.

So after we die,
our souls change bodies.

I got this one... lucky me...
And you're about

to get a new one of your own.

Just enter that changing room,
close the curtain,

and press three random buttons.

Now, I know you must have
a lot of questions

about how it all works...
- I have a million questions.

- But we don't have time.

So... chop-chop.

- So chop-chop I did, knocking
out miracles in New York City,

but all work and no play
makes for a dull angel,

so I found myself a playmate.

- No, it's Saturday... the 23rd.

we've been

Happy sexual-versary.

What is the official gift
for one year

of emotion-free sex?
- Traditionally,

it's a wink and a thumbs-up,

but I went ahead
and broke convention...

I got you a high five.

- I got you the same thing.

Now let's celebrate
with dinner.

I'm free tomorrow night.
- Really? On Christmas Eve?

That would be great, 'cause...
- Ooh, I have to cancel.

Sorry, Barker.

- That's kind of weird,
'cause you just said

you were free, and...

Yeah.

what you're doing here.

You're trying to avoid
intimacy through sex,

reject you anyway.

I would never do that again.

200 feet, if that.

into shape when your body just
always magically stays

the same shape.

Okay.

got kicked out.

- Yeah, about 10%
of all the angels on Earth

got kicked out of Heaven.

my angel union emails?
- There's just so many.

They're like the Linkedln

Hi, can I get a large,
triple-shot caramel mocha,

extra whip,
and go crazy on the drizzle.

- And I'll just
get a black coffee.

Keep the change.
Really?

- I can eat whatever I want
without gaining weight.

What part of that
do you not understand?

- Okay, just because
you can do something

doesn't mean you should.
- Yeah, I disagree

with every part
of that advice.

- Mm...
- So what did you think

of Heaven?
- Oh, my gosh... Heaven, it's...

It was a perfect paradise,
and then...

after a century,
I just got bored.

I started to act out.
I stole Gandhi's Ferrari, I...

- Wait.
Gandhi has a Ferrari?

- Oh, baby, Gandhi is super
materialistic up there.

But he left the keys
in the ignition... like,

what was I supposed to do?
- I get it.

- Right?
- I get it.

- Gandhi, Lincoln... FYI,
they run Heaven.

- Oh, well, tell me more.

- I don't know.
I messed up.

I took all of that perfection
for granted,

I came back down here

that I realized how good
I had it up there.

- Leonard?
- Yes.

- Your order's up.
- Thank you so much.

- Do you think I'll ever
get up there?

- Not a chance.

I'm-I'm just saying.
Hey, you...

I've seen a lot of angels
get to Heaven,

and the ones that get up there

are the ones
who really want to.

What does that mean?

I mean, of course
I want to get up there.

I'm really bad at my job...

I've kept distance
from everyone.

No real relationships,
no real friends...
