Rip-Fixes-Sync
by VaVooM
2
00:00:48,751 --> 00:00:50,948
Keep your arms up.
Don't forget to smile.
3
00:00:50,983 --> 00:00:53,161
Nathan, you're still recovering.
Don't do the triple Axel.
4
00:00:53,185 --> 00:00:54,818
Yeah, I won't, I promise.
5
00:00:54,854 --> 00:00:56,331
Have an ice pack ready.
He's gonna try the triple Axel.
6
00:00:56,355 --> 00:00:58,689
- Get the ice.
- Perfect spiral.
7
00:00:58,724 --> 00:01:01,158
You were amazing!
8
00:01:01,193 --> 00:01:03,126
You know, I got a little
emotional out there,
9
00:01:03,162 --> 00:01:06,296
thinking that this is
our second-last show ever.
10
00:01:06,332 --> 00:01:09,032
You're not second-guessing
leaving the tour, are you?
11
00:01:09,068 --> 00:01:11,535
No, no, I'm not.
I'm so excited.
12
00:01:11,570 --> 00:01:13,370
We're finally gonna do it...
13
00:01:13,405 --> 00:01:16,139
buy an ice rink,
start our own training center.
14
00:01:16,175 --> 00:01:18,175
And after four years on tour,
finally be home.
15
00:01:18,210 --> 00:01:21,678
Be in the same place for more than
two days, have a real Christmas.
16
00:01:21,714 --> 00:01:24,081
- What's a real Christmas?
- I forget.
17
00:01:24,116 --> 00:01:26,516
Something that's not in a hotel
or on a tarmac.
18
00:01:26,552 --> 00:01:28,151
Right.
19
00:01:28,187 --> 00:01:29,865
I'm gonna get a tree
from the Miller's farm
20
00:01:29,889 --> 00:01:31,666
and take all my Christmas
decorations out of storage.
21
00:01:31,690 --> 00:01:33,924
I'll decorate the house
exactly like my mom used to.
22
00:01:34,496 --> 00:01:38,495
- I can't wait to finally be home.
- Me too.
23
00:01:38,530 --> 00:01:39,763
We should finish packing.
24
00:01:39,798 --> 00:01:41,176
We have to be at the airport
at 5:00.
25
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,834
Where are we going again?
Santa...
26
00:01:43,869 --> 00:01:46,503
- San Senova.
- San Senova, right.
27
00:01:47,806 --> 00:01:50,007
Tiny country,
big tourist destination.
28
00:01:50,042 --> 00:01:53,010
- I hope it's nice.
- It'll be great.
29
00:02:15,301 --> 00:02:17,234
- Thank you, Dawson.
- Sir.
30
00:02:17,269 --> 00:02:19,036
Your Majesty.
31
00:02:19,071 --> 00:02:24,408
Nicholas, you've spent the last 30 years
as my best friend calling me "Alex".
32
00:02:24,443 --> 00:02:27,477
That's when you didn't
use more colorful names.
33
00:02:27,513 --> 00:02:29,947
Would you prefer
one of the more colorful names?
34
00:02:33,485 --> 00:02:34,751
Thank you, Paul.
35
00:02:34,787 --> 00:02:36,264
The west wing,
extensively refurbished
36
00:02:36,288 --> 00:02:39,323
by the late Christmas King and...
37
00:02:39,358 --> 00:02:41,825
Oh, sir, I'm so sorry.
38
00:02:41,860 --> 00:02:44,461
Didn't we discuss keeping
the tourists to the east wing?
39
00:02:44,496 --> 00:02:47,397
I'll inquire about it
again, sir.
40
00:02:51,203 --> 00:02:53,103
Where did that come from?
41
00:02:53,138 --> 00:02:57,140
Princess Christina requested
that it be placed in here.
42
00:02:57,176 --> 00:03:00,444
Why do I somehow think that
that relates to this?
43
00:03:00,479 --> 00:03:02,012
How is my father
the Christmas King,
44
00:03:02,047 --> 00:03:03,647
and I'm the Grinch King?
45
00:03:03,682 --> 00:03:07,017
Well, your father founded
the Christmas Market,
46
00:03:07,052 --> 00:03:08,952
and the caroling concert,
47
00:03:08,988 --> 00:03:11,021
and the holiday benefit
for the community center,
48
00:03:11,056 --> 00:03:14,591
while you, when asked about
your feelings towards Christmas,
49
00:03:14,626 --> 00:03:16,994
remarked that it's
"good for the economy".
50
00:03:17,029 --> 00:03:18,962
It is good for the economy.
51
00:03:18,998 --> 00:03:22,332
Alex, it's your third Christmas
as king of a country
52
00:03:22,368 --> 00:03:23,867
founded around the holiday,
53
00:03:23,902 --> 00:03:26,103
and you're yet to show
any Christmas cheer.
54
00:03:26,138 --> 00:03:28,116
I know that Christmas can be
a hard time for you, but...
55
00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:32,409
It's not hard.
Look, I'm just busy.
56
00:03:33,912 --> 00:03:35,379
Look who's here.
57
00:03:35,414 --> 00:03:37,881
I can see that I've
walked in on something.
58
00:03:37,916 --> 00:03:38,949
Hello, Aunt Patricia.
59
00:03:40,419 --> 00:03:45,555
The princess is wondering if you'll be
having dinner together tonight.
60
00:03:45,591 --> 00:03:48,558
You've got your meet-and-greet
with the dignitaries this evening.
61
00:03:48,594 --> 00:03:49,993
Can it be moved?
62
00:03:50,029 --> 00:03:52,362
It's already been
rescheduled twice.
63
00:03:54,666 --> 00:03:56,666
Tell her I'll do my best.
64
00:04:00,105 --> 00:04:02,806
This place is like
a storybook come to life.
65
00:04:02,841 --> 00:04:04,708
Yes, one where
my fairy godmother
66
00:04:04,743 --> 00:04:07,978
gives me a cute boy
and some mistletoe.
67
00:04:08,013 --> 00:04:10,080
They really love Christmas here.
68
00:04:10,115 --> 00:04:12,682
According to this, this country
was founded on Christmas Eve.
69
00:04:12,718 --> 00:04:15,519
There are nonstop
holiday events, traditions.
70
00:04:15,554 --> 00:04:17,888
There's even a tour
of a decorated palace.
71
00:04:17,923 --> 00:04:19,556
Unfortunately,
it's during our show time.
72
00:04:19,591 --> 00:04:21,324
There is a Christmas Market
we can visit.
73
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,660
Perfect. I knew I left
my Christmas shopping
74
00:04:23,695 --> 00:04:25,495
till the last minute
for a reason.
75
00:04:31,370 --> 00:04:33,737
Excuse me, ma'am,
is this dog yours?
76
00:04:33,772 --> 00:04:36,039
Oh, no, right.
I'm so sorry.
77
00:04:36,075 --> 00:04:39,009
- I turn around for one second...
- That's all right.
78
00:04:40,045 --> 00:04:41,078
Daddy!
79
00:04:42,614 --> 00:04:44,581
I'm so sorry about dinner.
80
00:04:44,616 --> 00:04:45,749
Tomorrow night, I promise.
81
00:04:48,420 --> 00:04:51,688
- How was your skating lesson?
- I'm learning a spiral.
82
00:04:51,723 --> 00:04:55,025
A spiral!
Marvelous.
83
00:04:55,060 --> 00:04:58,361
Perhaps I can come down tomorrow
and watch you practice.
84
00:04:58,397 --> 00:05:00,730
It's getting late.
It's time to sleep.
85
00:05:00,766 --> 00:05:03,233
But I haven't finished my movie.
86
00:05:03,268 --> 00:05:05,735
A Christmas movie.
87
00:05:05,771 --> 00:05:07,537
Well, let me guess how it ends,
88
00:05:07,573 --> 00:05:11,208
as there is only one fitting
ending for a Christmas story.
89
00:05:11,243 --> 00:05:15,779
The tree is lit,
the mistletoe is kissed under,
90
00:05:15,814 --> 00:05:17,814
and a merry Christmas
is had by all,
91
00:05:17,850 --> 00:05:21,651
and to all a good night.
92
00:05:21,687 --> 00:05:22,886
I love you, Tina-bear.
93
00:05:24,189 --> 00:05:25,355
I love you too.
94
00:05:31,063 --> 00:05:34,364
Daddy, it doesn't matter
what anyone says.
95
00:05:34,399 --> 00:05:36,433
You're not a Grinch.
96
00:05:39,438 --> 00:05:41,138
Good night, Christina.
97
00:05:50,282 --> 00:05:52,883
It does. Looks happy.
98
00:05:53,118 --> 00:05:55,452
There's nothing to worry about.
99
00:05:55,487 --> 00:05:58,421
You know, you'll make your
speech opening Christmas Market,
100
00:05:58,457 --> 00:06:02,092
shake some hands,
wish some Merry Christmases.
101
00:06:02,127 --> 00:06:04,527
It'll be good.
102
00:06:04,563 --> 00:06:06,229
Yeah, it'll be great.
103
00:06:06,264 --> 00:06:07,864
It's a chance to connect
with the people
104
00:06:07,899 --> 00:06:12,068
and move past this whole
Grinch King business.
105
00:06:12,104 --> 00:06:13,603
Who knows? After today,
106
00:06:13,638 --> 00:06:17,173
I might be known as
the second Christmas King.
107
00:06:21,613 --> 00:06:25,882
All right, you'll do great.
Just, you know, be yourself and...
108
00:06:25,917 --> 00:06:27,617
you know, speak from the heart.
109
00:06:27,652 --> 00:06:29,319
Just not sure I can do both.
110
00:06:29,354 --> 00:06:32,789
Well, then,
just stick to the speech.
111
00:06:32,824 --> 00:06:34,524
All right?
I'll go speak to the press.
112
00:06:43,769 --> 00:06:46,903
It's so magical.
Look at these decorations.
113
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,306
This is so cute.
114
00:06:51,309 --> 00:06:52,909
We should get it as a souvenir.
115
00:06:52,944 --> 00:06:55,178
It can be a good luck charm
for our skating arena.
116
00:06:55,213 --> 00:06:58,047
By the way, I spoke to a
real estate agency this morning.
117
00:06:58,083 --> 00:06:59,694
They're gonna start
looking for rinks for us.
118
00:06:59,718 --> 00:07:01,451
- That's great.
- Yeah.
119
00:07:01,486 --> 00:07:03,030
You should go get warmed up
for the show.
120
00:07:03,054 --> 00:07:04,298
I'll buy this.
I'll meet you there.
121
00:07:04,322 --> 00:07:06,956
Sounds good.
I'll see you soon.
122
00:07:06,992 --> 00:07:08,691
- Sorry.
- I'm so sorry.
123
00:07:38,690 --> 00:07:40,957
No. "Christmas honor".
124
00:07:40,992 --> 00:07:43,460
"Honor Christmas.
125
00:07:43,495 --> 00:07:45,995
Honor it with all my heart".
126
00:07:47,165 --> 00:07:49,399
I'm...
127
00:07:49,434 --> 00:07:51,601
- I must apologize.
- No, I'm sorry.
128
00:07:51,636 --> 00:07:52,814
I didn't see anyone
hiding there.
129
00:07:52,838 --> 00:07:56,439
- Well, I wasn't hiding.
- Right, of course.
130
00:07:56,475 --> 00:07:58,186
I mean, it kinda looked like
you were hiding.
131
00:07:58,210 --> 00:08:00,643
Really? And from whom
would I be hiding?
132
00:08:00,679 --> 00:08:03,279
I don't know,
the Christmas crowds?
133
00:08:03,315 --> 00:08:07,317
Hiding from Christmas.
If only that was an option.
134
00:08:07,352 --> 00:08:09,752
I take it you're not a fan
of the holiday.
135
00:08:09,788 --> 00:08:13,556
No, no, I am a fan.
Big fan. The biggest.
136
00:08:14,893 --> 00:08:18,795
I honor Christmas
with all my heart and...
137
00:08:18,830 --> 00:08:21,631
and...
138
00:08:21,666 --> 00:08:23,433
And try to keep
for all the year?
139
00:08:23,468 --> 00:08:24,801
Yes, that.
140
00:08:26,171 --> 00:08:28,037
That was very believable.
141
00:08:28,073 --> 00:08:31,307
Well, it was believable
because it's the truth.
142
00:08:31,343 --> 00:08:35,545
Blessed is the season where...
143
00:08:35,580 --> 00:08:39,282
Which engages the whole world
in a conspiracy of love.
144
00:08:39,317 --> 00:08:42,018
I knew it was something
to do with conspiracy.
145
00:08:42,053 --> 00:08:44,487
What are you, some sort
of Christmas quote book?
146
00:08:44,523 --> 00:08:47,690
- I just like Christmas.
- So I see.
147
00:08:48,026 --> 00:08:50,092
Well, whatever you're doing,
good luck.
148
00:08:50,128 --> 00:08:52,094
Hope you find
your Christmas cheer.
149
00:08:52,130 --> 00:08:54,363
Thank you,
and I don't need to find it
150
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:56,632
because, well,
I'm brimming with it.
151
00:08:56,668 --> 00:09:01,604
Behold. Christmas waves
a magic wand across the world
152
00:09:01,639 --> 00:09:03,339
and makes everything
more beautiful.
153
00:09:04,475 --> 00:09:06,642
- Good luck.
- Well, I don't need luck.
154
00:09:11,716 --> 00:09:13,516
Okay, it's time.
155
00:09:13,551 --> 00:09:16,485
I told the press you'd do a quick
photo op before the speech,
156
00:09:16,521 --> 00:09:18,888
- Are you good?
- Yes.
157
00:09:18,923 --> 00:09:20,790
Great.
Okay, I'll see you on there.
158
00:09:25,496 --> 00:09:29,198
Hi. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
159
00:09:29,234 --> 00:09:33,202
Ladies and gentlemen,
King Alexander of San Senova.
160
00:10:06,037 --> 00:10:07,403
Merry Christmas.
161
00:10:10,642 --> 00:10:12,275
Good luck.
162
00:10:12,310 --> 00:10:14,677
You're gonna be great.
It's gonna be great.
163
00:10:15,914 --> 00:10:18,347
It's our last show.
164
00:10:18,383 --> 00:10:21,083
It's a good thing.
We're finally going home.
165
00:10:21,119 --> 00:10:23,119
I know. You're right.
166
00:10:23,154 --> 00:10:24,420
We'll have stability.
167
00:10:24,455 --> 00:10:26,055
- Yes.
- We'll plant roots.
168
00:10:26,090 --> 00:10:28,391
And we can finally
see some friends.
169
00:10:28,426 --> 00:10:31,794
Yes, and maybe even
start dating again.
170
00:10:31,829 --> 00:10:35,431
- I think the curtain's going up.
- Yeah, of course you do.
171
00:10:35,466 --> 00:10:37,733
- Good luck.
- Thank you.
172
00:10:49,647 --> 00:10:52,548
He was covered in plum pudding!
173
00:10:55,487 --> 00:10:58,421
- Are you excited about the show?
- Yes.
174
00:10:58,456 --> 00:11:00,289
Well, I've got a little
surprise for you.
175
00:11:00,325 --> 00:11:04,560
How about after the show we'll go
around and meet the skaters?
176
00:11:04,596 --> 00:11:06,529
- Really?
- Yes.
177
00:11:24,783 --> 00:11:25,783
Cheers!
178
00:11:27,418 --> 00:11:29,218
We did it!
179
00:11:29,254 --> 00:11:30,820
Congratulations.
180
00:11:30,855 --> 00:11:32,155
Thank you.
181
00:11:32,190 --> 00:11:33,656
That was so good.
182
00:11:33,691 --> 00:11:35,236
- You were beautiful, as always.
- Thank you.
183
00:11:35,260 --> 00:11:37,960
Excuse me.
Hello, are you by any chance...
184
00:11:37,996 --> 00:11:39,762
Katie Hendricks!
185
00:11:39,798 --> 00:11:41,497
I am.
186
00:11:41,533 --> 00:11:44,000
- You must be Princess Patricia.
- How do you do?
187
00:11:44,035 --> 00:11:46,102
Thank you so much
for inviting us backstage.
188
00:11:46,137 --> 00:11:48,838
Of course. And you must be
Princess Christina.
189
00:11:48,873 --> 00:11:51,274
Just Christina.
190
00:11:51,309 --> 00:11:52,809
This is the talented
Jessica Lewis.
191
00:11:52,844 --> 00:11:54,588
- Lovely to meet you.
- Wonderful to meet you.
192
00:11:54,612 --> 00:11:56,846
- Wonderful show.
- Thank you so much.
193
00:11:56,881 --> 00:11:58,526
- It's so nice to meet you.
- It's nice to meet you.
194
00:11:58,550 --> 00:11:59,916
Should we curtsy?
195
00:11:59,951 --> 00:12:01,484
I can't believe I'm meeting you.
196
00:12:01,519 --> 00:12:04,153
You're a three-time
world champion.
197
00:12:04,189 --> 00:12:06,823
Didn't you almost
go to the Olympics?
198
00:12:06,858 --> 00:12:08,691
Almost.
199
00:12:08,726 --> 00:12:12,628
But you weren't in the show.
Did you stop skating?
200
00:12:12,664 --> 00:12:14,597
I did.
I just choreograph now.
201
00:12:14,632 --> 00:12:19,135
And by that, she means choreograph,
train, and constantly put out fires.
202
00:12:19,170 --> 00:12:22,004
Jessica, I'm a huge fan.
I love your routines.
203
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,706
Thank you!
204
00:12:23,741 --> 00:12:26,609
I hear you're being coached.
Learning any new tricks?
205
00:12:26,644 --> 00:12:29,111
A spiral.
206
00:12:29,147 --> 00:12:31,347
Well, pro tip:
A good spiral's all about
207
00:12:31,382 --> 00:12:33,015
a great banana position.
208
00:12:33,051 --> 00:12:36,085
Could you show me?
I have a rink at the palace.
209
00:12:37,322 --> 00:12:40,223
You have a rink at the palace.
210
00:12:40,258 --> 00:12:43,159
We could skate.
I could give you a tour.
211
00:12:43,194 --> 00:12:46,229
Well, we were sad that
we missed the public tours.
212
00:12:46,264 --> 00:12:48,698
Well, then you must
come visit us.
213
00:12:48,733 --> 00:12:50,233
This afternoon?
214
00:12:50,268 --> 00:12:51,901
- Yeah, that would be great.
- Lovely!
215
00:12:51,936 --> 00:12:53,035
Thank you.
216
00:12:55,006 --> 00:12:57,573
This is San Senova's
first royal family.
217
00:12:57,609 --> 00:13:00,243
That painting is almost
500 years old.
218
00:13:00,278 --> 00:13:02,311
I actually think
I have that dress.
219
00:13:02,347 --> 00:13:05,915
And this is exactly
like our apartment.
220
00:13:05,950 --> 00:13:09,529
- Really? Where do you live?
- New Jersey.
221
00:13:10,263 --> 00:13:11,554
New Jersey.
222
00:13:11,589 --> 00:13:14,724
Excuse me.
Where's your ladies' room?
223
00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:18,828
It's up the stairs to the right,
third door on the left.
224
00:13:19,898 --> 00:13:21,230
Okay.
225
00:13:25,403 --> 00:13:27,403
Third door on the left.
226
00:13:31,476 --> 00:13:35,511
- You?
- You. What are you doing here?
227
00:13:36,748 --> 00:13:38,381
You're on a tour.
228
00:13:38,416 --> 00:13:41,684
Yeah, I got a little lost.
What are you doing here?
229
00:13:41,719 --> 00:13:45,021
Well, I work here.
230
00:13:45,056 --> 00:13:47,690
You work in the palace,
like for the king?
231
00:13:49,227 --> 00:13:50,660
Something like that.
232
00:13:51,963 --> 00:13:54,530
The king. Cool.
233
00:13:54,565 --> 00:13:55,798
What's he like?
234
00:13:57,536 --> 00:14:01,616
Magnanimous and beloved.
That sort of thing.
235
00:14:02,307 --> 00:14:04,807
Well, I'm sure it's amazing
to work in this palace.
236
00:14:04,842 --> 00:14:06,409
It's gorgeous.
237
00:14:06,444 --> 00:14:08,210
Although between you and me,
238
00:14:08,246 --> 00:14:10,980
I think it could do with a few
extra Christmas decorations.
239
00:14:11,015 --> 00:14:13,649
'Course you would.
240
00:14:13,685 --> 00:14:16,152
Well, I think it's
just perfect as it is.
241
00:14:16,187 --> 00:14:18,387
Of course you do.
242
00:14:18,423 --> 00:14:22,658
So can I help
with where you're headed?
243
00:14:22,694 --> 00:14:26,262
- Thanks, but I'm good.
- Of course you are.
244
00:14:35,873 --> 00:14:37,907
There you are.
245
00:14:37,942 --> 00:14:40,910
- Sorry. I got lost.
- Oh, no need to apologize.
246
00:14:40,945 --> 00:14:44,313
I've lived here my entire life,
and I still get lost.
247
00:14:44,349 --> 00:14:48,150
Now, Christina and Jessica are
at the rink, so I'll take us.
248
00:14:54,993 --> 00:14:56,292
I know.
249
00:14:56,327 --> 00:14:57,760
What?
250
00:15:08,072 --> 00:15:10,673
Christina, this is amazing.
251
00:15:14,579 --> 00:15:16,436
Do you ever put on shows here?
252
00:15:16,914 --> 00:15:17,914
No.
253
00:15:18,249 --> 00:15:22,885
Well, actually, my grandpa
did want to host a show here.
254
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,922
An ice skating pageant
for Founder's Day.
255
00:15:36,233 --> 00:15:39,468
- Daddy.
- I'm sorry I missed dinner.
256
00:15:39,503 --> 00:15:41,837
That's fine,
but I have a question.
257
00:15:41,872 --> 00:15:43,372
Yes?
258
00:15:43,407 --> 00:15:45,407
Do you remember how Grandpa
used to talk about
259
00:15:45,443 --> 00:15:47,643
hosting an ice skating pageant
for Founder's Day?
260
00:15:47,678 --> 00:15:50,546
Yes, the retelling of how
San Senova was founded.
261
00:15:50,581 --> 00:15:53,215
Well, what if we hosted it?
262
00:15:54,685 --> 00:15:56,318
That's a marvelous idea.
263
00:15:56,354 --> 00:15:58,320
We'll start planning
after Christmas.
264
00:15:58,356 --> 00:16:02,524
No, not for next Founder's Day.
For this Founder's Day.
265
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,260
Christina, Founder's Day
is on Christmas Eve,
266
00:16:05,296 --> 00:16:07,162
and that's two weeks away.
267
00:16:07,198 --> 00:16:09,064
A pageant would be
a massive production.
268
00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:11,033
But the figure skating stars
are here.
269
00:16:11,068 --> 00:16:13,936
Katie and Jessica came to the
rink today. They could do it.
270
00:16:13,971 --> 00:16:17,206
And I'll inquire with them
for next Founder's Day.
271
00:16:20,277 --> 00:16:24,012
But, Daddy, then you'll be the
Grinch King for a whole year,
272
00:16:24,048 --> 00:16:27,049
and that's not who you are,
and everyone should know that.
273
00:16:31,756 --> 00:16:32,855
Tina-bear...
274
00:16:37,661 --> 00:16:41,029
I'll talk to this Katie
and Jessica, all right?
275
00:16:41,065 --> 00:16:42,097
Good.
276
00:16:44,168 --> 00:16:46,402
Good night, Tina-bear.
I love you.
277
00:16:46,437 --> 00:16:48,404
I love you too, Daddy.
278
00:16:57,415 --> 00:16:58,447
Bye.
279
00:16:58,482 --> 00:17:00,949
Bye. Merry Christmas.
280
00:17:00,985 --> 00:17:02,918
Miss Hendricks, Miss...
281
00:17:04,021 --> 00:17:06,321
Lewis.
282
00:17:06,357 --> 00:17:08,590
The king has requested
a word with you at the palace.
283
00:17:08,626 --> 00:17:10,993
- We have to catch our flight.
- Don't worry.
284
00:17:11,028 --> 00:17:13,629
We'll make sure
it doesn't leave without you.
285
00:17:34,318 --> 00:17:36,652
Do you think
we're somehow in trouble?
286
00:17:36,687 --> 00:17:40,823
If this is the dungeon,
lock me up.
287
00:17:40,858 --> 00:17:43,091
I can't believe
we're going to meet the king.
288
00:17:43,127 --> 00:17:45,594
Let's just be on
our best behavior.
289
00:17:45,629 --> 00:17:48,096
What, me?
290
00:17:48,132 --> 00:17:51,500
Let's just not offend anyone
or break anything.
291
00:17:54,338 --> 00:17:55,304
Sorry.
292
00:17:55,339 --> 00:17:57,139
Sorry to keep you waiting.
293
00:17:58,309 --> 00:18:00,108
- You?
- You?
294
00:18:00,144 --> 00:18:01,877
What are you doing here?
295
00:18:01,912 --> 00:18:04,580
I'm meeting the...
296
00:18:07,651 --> 00:18:09,952
You're the king.
297
00:18:09,987 --> 00:18:11,587
Should we curtsy?
298
00:18:21,700 --> 00:18:26,803
So you're the Katie and Jessica
that Christina's spoken so highly of.
299
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:29,806
I'm Katie, and this is Jessica.
300
00:18:29,842 --> 00:18:30,974
Sorry.
301
00:18:31,009 --> 00:18:32,642
Well, nice to see you again.
302
00:18:32,678 --> 00:18:34,377
Shall we get
to the business at hand?
303
00:18:34,413 --> 00:18:36,880
So my daughter
has gotten an idea
304
00:18:36,915 --> 00:18:40,484
to host an ice-skated retelling
of our country's founding.
305
00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:47,991
It'll be performed
on Founder's Day,
306
00:18:48,026 --> 00:18:51,161
which is Christmas Eve,
and it's 13 days from now.
307
00:18:51,196 --> 00:18:54,498
- That's ambitious.
- I think so too.
308
00:18:54,533 --> 00:18:58,869
She would love you both to star
in it, choreograph, and coach.
309
00:18:58,904 --> 00:19:01,671
I know it's a tall order, but
I promised my daughter I'd ask.
310
00:19:01,707 --> 00:19:04,141
However, I understand
how highly illogical
311
00:19:04,176 --> 00:19:05,976
and quite impossible
it all could be.
312
00:19:06,011 --> 00:19:09,012
- We'll do it.
- No.
313
00:19:09,047 --> 00:19:10,981
I'm sorry, we can't.
314
00:19:12,050 --> 00:19:14,217
Well, what's your final answer?
315
00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:16,453
- Yes.
- No.
316
00:19:18,891 --> 00:19:22,025
Skating in a pageant
in a palace.
317
00:19:22,060 --> 00:19:23,894
That's a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity.
318
00:19:23,929 --> 00:19:26,263
To put on a pageant in 13 days?
319
00:19:26,298 --> 00:19:28,698
Plus, we said we'd be home
for Christmas this year.
320
00:19:28,734 --> 00:19:31,168
Yeah, but San Senova's like
walking into a snow globe.
321
00:19:31,203 --> 00:19:34,171
- What could be better than that?
- Being home.
322
00:19:34,206 --> 00:19:36,907
Ladies, if you've
decided to leave,
323
00:19:36,942 --> 00:19:39,509
then a car is waiting
to take you to the airport.
324
00:19:39,545 --> 00:19:44,781
However, if you're still considering,
the Crown's offer for your services.
325
00:19:44,816 --> 00:19:46,516
If you need some more time,
326
00:19:46,552 --> 00:19:49,052
I can simply reschedule
your flight to leave tomorrow.
327
00:19:49,087 --> 00:19:50,698
We've already
checked out of our hotel.
328
00:19:50,722 --> 00:19:52,022
Since you're in San Senova,
329
00:19:52,057 --> 00:19:54,124
you shall be a guest
of the Crown.
330
00:19:54,159 --> 00:19:55,192
Wait.
331
00:19:56,995 --> 00:19:58,695
You mean we'd be staying here?
332
00:19:58,730 --> 00:20:02,599
I wouldn't get too excited.
Gets quite drafty.
333
00:20:05,737 --> 00:20:08,872
He is so cute.
334
00:20:08,907 --> 00:20:10,874
Oh, come on! Don't you wanna
stay at a palace?
335
00:20:10,909 --> 00:20:12,876
No! I wanna stay
in my own bed.
336
00:20:12,911 --> 00:20:15,579
And there's nothing that's gonna
make me wanna change my mind.
337
00:20:18,684 --> 00:20:20,750
What about this?
338
00:20:20,786 --> 00:20:22,552
That's a very generous offer.
339
00:20:22,588 --> 00:20:25,388
Katie, this is the money
that we need for the ice rink.
340
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:30,727
What exactly does
the pageant entail?
341
00:20:31,930 --> 00:20:33,630
I'll go find out.
342
00:20:42,541 --> 00:20:44,574
So did our guests
reach a decision?
343
00:20:44,610 --> 00:20:46,810
They're still considering, sir.
344
00:20:46,845 --> 00:20:49,813
What is there to consider?
It's a ludicrous concept.
345
00:20:49,848 --> 00:20:52,916
- Produce a pageant in two weeks.
- 13 days.
346
00:20:52,951 --> 00:20:55,652
To say no now
would disappoint Christina,
347
00:20:55,687 --> 00:20:59,756
but the show going awry would be
a much bigger disappointment.
348
00:20:59,791 --> 00:21:01,858
I just know how much
this means to her.
349
00:21:01,893 --> 00:21:03,760
I know you want to protect her,
350
00:21:03,795 --> 00:21:05,629
but what if the show
didn't go awry?
351
00:21:12,871 --> 00:21:14,471
- Sorry.
- Sorry.
352
00:21:14,506 --> 00:21:18,208
I was just looking
for Christina and Patricia.
353
00:21:18,243 --> 00:21:20,210
Oh, well, I can show you.
Follow me.
354
00:21:20,245 --> 00:21:22,045
Okay, thanks.
355
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,048
So have you guys decided whether
you're gonna stay or not?
356
00:21:25,083 --> 00:21:28,118
Not yet, no,
but I'm hoping for yes.
357
00:21:28,153 --> 00:21:29,853
Yeah, me too.
358
00:21:29,888 --> 00:21:33,290
It'd be nice to have you
as a houseguest.
359
00:21:34,426 --> 00:21:37,193
- Yeah, follow me.
- Thanks.
360
00:21:42,668 --> 00:21:44,467
Have you decided to stay?
361
00:21:44,503 --> 00:21:47,137
Not quite yet.
We were hoping to find out
362
00:21:47,172 --> 00:21:49,639
a little bit more about
your vision for the pageant,
363
00:21:49,675 --> 00:21:53,376
about the stories that we'd be
telling, something like that.
364
00:21:53,412 --> 00:21:55,812
Originally,
San Senova wasn't a kingdom,
365
00:21:55,847 --> 00:21:59,816
but it was a large estate
of a wealthy family:
366
00:21:59,851 --> 00:22:02,218
William, Catherine,
and their daughter Sonia.
367
00:22:02,254 --> 00:22:04,654
- Should we sit down?
- Sure.
368
00:22:06,692 --> 00:22:08,725
Well, about 500 years ago,
369
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,361
there was a terrible avalanche
in the kingdom across the lake.
370
00:22:11,396 --> 00:22:12,896
It destroyed a village,
371
00:22:12,931 --> 00:22:14,864
and all the villagers
had to flee their homes.
372
00:22:14,900 --> 00:22:16,700
So when William
found out about this,
373
00:22:16,735 --> 00:22:19,169
he set off with a team
on horseback to rescue them.
374
00:22:19,204 --> 00:22:22,906
Well, when they hadn't
returned after several days,
375
00:22:22,941 --> 00:22:26,543
Catherine and Sonia,
who was about Christina's age,
376
00:22:26,578 --> 00:22:30,013
decided to set off
and find them.
377
00:22:30,048 --> 00:22:33,216
And Sonia and Catherine
skated across the frozen lake
378
00:22:33,251 --> 00:22:35,518
to find William
and the villagers snowed in,
379
00:22:35,554 --> 00:22:37,854
and then they brought them
to the safety of San Senova.
380
00:22:37,889 --> 00:22:40,223
Where they all
celebrated Christmas together.
381
00:22:40,258 --> 00:22:41,925
And they stayed
through the winter,
382
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,693
and in spring,
they didn't want to leave,
383
00:22:43,729 --> 00:22:46,529
so they declared our family
the royal family,
384
00:22:46,565 --> 00:22:49,966
and that is how the kingdom
of San Senova was born.
385
00:22:51,470 --> 00:22:52,902
That's such a beautiful story.
386
00:22:52,938 --> 00:22:54,904
- Isn't it?
- It is.
387
00:22:54,940 --> 00:22:56,573
That's the story we tell
in the pageant.
388
00:22:56,608 --> 00:22:59,542
And then maybe
the pageant would be
389
00:22:59,578 --> 00:23:02,278
a new Christmas tradition
my dad gives the country.
390
00:23:02,314 --> 00:23:05,782
And then everyone would stop
calling him the Grinch King
391
00:23:05,817 --> 00:23:08,918
because he's not
a Grinch at all.
392
00:23:08,954 --> 00:23:11,054
He's not who people think he is.
393
00:23:11,089 --> 00:23:14,224
He's funny and nice
and the best dad,
394
00:23:14,259 --> 00:23:16,059
and everyone should know that.
395
00:23:16,094 --> 00:23:18,261
And maybe the pageant
could remind him
396
00:23:18,296 --> 00:23:19,562
how much he loves Christmas,
397
00:23:19,598 --> 00:23:22,599
and then he'll do
Christmas stuff.
398
00:23:22,634 --> 00:23:24,300
You don't do Christmas stuff?
399
00:23:24,336 --> 00:23:28,638
In the past few years, the
palace's Christmas festivities
400
00:23:28,673 --> 00:23:31,574
have been, well,
more for formality's sake.
401
00:23:31,610 --> 00:23:35,678
Photo ops and a very stuffy
traditional Christmas Eve dinner.
402
00:23:35,714 --> 00:23:39,983
You don't decorate a Christmas
tree or bake Christmas cookies?
403
00:23:40,018 --> 00:23:43,753
We used to do that
with my grandfather.
404
00:23:48,460 --> 00:23:49,492
Come on.
405
00:23:54,733 --> 00:23:58,768
See? Christina just wants
a real Christmas,
406
00:23:58,804 --> 00:24:00,904
like somebody else I know.
407
00:24:08,580 --> 00:24:10,346
With plum pudding
all over his face!
408
00:24:12,050 --> 00:24:15,852
Girls, we're having a formal dinner
tonight for the visiting dignitaries,
409
00:24:15,887 --> 00:24:18,087
so we've put some dresses
in your rooms.
410
00:24:18,123 --> 00:24:20,290
Thank you!
411
00:24:21,259 --> 00:24:22,692
Your room, Madam.
412
00:24:24,529 --> 00:24:25,829
Good day, Madam.
413
00:24:39,744 --> 00:24:43,446
Can we stay here forever?
414
00:24:43,482 --> 00:24:48,952
No, but we can stay
until the pageant.
415
00:25:27,659 --> 00:25:31,561
- You look... different.
- Thank you.
416
00:25:35,033 --> 00:25:37,300
So I heard you're staying
for the pageant.
417
00:25:37,335 --> 00:25:40,136
I hope you don't mind me asking,
what made you change your mind?
418
00:25:40,171 --> 00:25:42,639
Christina can be
very persuasive.
419
00:25:42,674 --> 00:25:44,474
That, she can.
420
00:25:44,509 --> 00:25:47,777
And your generous offer
didn't hurt either.
421
00:25:47,812 --> 00:25:50,446
Christina loves figure skating
more than anything,
422
00:25:50,482 --> 00:25:53,917
and I love the joy and magic
it brings to an audience.
423
00:25:53,952 --> 00:25:55,919
We all deserve a real Christmas.
424
00:25:55,954 --> 00:25:58,855
I'm not sure what you mean,
425
00:25:58,890 --> 00:26:01,891
but something tells me
I'm going to find out.
426
00:26:03,194 --> 00:26:04,494
Shall we?
427
00:26:09,869 --> 00:26:11,702
Okay, I've choreographed
some simple numbers
428
00:26:11,737 --> 00:26:13,904
we'll weave through San Senova's
founding story.
429
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,706
Perfect.
430
00:26:15,741 --> 00:26:18,876
I will start on costumes,
crew, props, sets,
431
00:26:18,911 --> 00:26:21,311
and you're on casting
and scheduling rehearsals?
432
00:26:21,347 --> 00:26:25,015
Yeah. I have tryouts for the
villagers starting in one hour.
433
00:26:25,050 --> 00:26:26,517
And you're gonna play the queen?
434
00:26:26,552 --> 00:26:28,652
Well, of course.
I was born for the role.
435
00:26:28,687 --> 00:26:31,688
And it'll be fun to skate with Christina.
I assume she's playing the princess.
436
00:26:31,724 --> 00:26:35,626
Patricia actually said that Christina
wanted to hold tryouts for Sonia.
437
00:26:37,062 --> 00:26:39,407
I guess Christina
just wants to be fair.
438
00:26:39,488 --> 00:26:41,165
That's sweet.
439
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,668
Okay, so I'm going
to head into town
440
00:26:44,703 --> 00:26:47,704
to work on the set decor
and costumes.
441
00:26:47,740 --> 00:26:49,706
Okay, I'm heading to the rink.
442
00:26:49,942 --> 00:26:52,275
See? We're doing this.
443
00:26:52,311 --> 00:26:54,211
12 days? No problem.
We'll get this thing done.
444
00:26:54,246 --> 00:26:56,113
It is the season of miracles.
445
00:26:56,148 --> 00:26:59,549
Also, I talked to the real estate
broker who's finding us the rink.
446
00:26:59,585 --> 00:27:00,795
She's starting
to put out feelers.
447
00:27:00,819 --> 00:27:02,119
Exciting.
448
00:27:02,154 --> 00:27:04,788
Katie, Jessica,
449
00:27:04,823 --> 00:27:08,258
I wanted to offer my assistance
in organizing the pageant,
450
00:27:08,293 --> 00:27:10,260
- however I can help.
- Thank you.
451
00:27:10,295 --> 00:27:12,729
I've always had a penchant
for musical theater,
452
00:27:12,765 --> 00:27:16,600
and this seems pretty much
the same, only colder, on ice.
453
00:27:19,738 --> 00:27:22,372
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
454
00:27:22,408 --> 00:27:24,875
The king's asked me to organize
an ice skating pageant
455
00:27:24,910 --> 00:27:26,410
for Founder's Day,
456
00:27:26,445 --> 00:27:27,622
I was wondering
if it would be possible
457
00:27:27,646 --> 00:27:29,079
to rent set decorations
from you.
458
00:27:29,114 --> 00:27:31,815
No need to rent.
We'll be happy to donate.
459
00:27:31,850 --> 00:27:33,917
- Really?
- Of course.
460
00:27:33,952 --> 00:27:35,285
Great.
461
00:27:42,027 --> 00:27:44,661
Your Majesty.
462
00:27:44,696 --> 00:27:47,931
- What brings you here?
- Pageant prep. You?
463
00:27:47,966 --> 00:27:50,400
- I'm just running errands.
- Kings run errands?
464
00:27:50,436 --> 00:27:52,102
Not typically,
465
00:27:52,137 --> 00:27:54,971
but I came to pick up
the Christmas presents
466
00:27:55,007 --> 00:27:57,407
for the palace staff.
467
00:27:57,443 --> 00:27:59,109
That's really sweet of you.
468
00:27:59,144 --> 00:28:02,079
You don't have to look
so surprised.
469
00:28:03,115 --> 00:28:04,948
What are you getting everyone?
470
00:28:04,983 --> 00:28:07,584
A specially-made card
and a monetary gift.
471
00:28:07,619 --> 00:28:09,853
You're getting the staff money?
472
00:28:09,888 --> 00:28:12,689
Well, it's traditional
and practical.
473
00:28:12,724 --> 00:28:14,858
It sounds like a generous gift,
474
00:28:14,893 --> 00:28:17,360
but maybe you should consider
adding a personal touch.
475
00:28:17,396 --> 00:28:21,398
Well, I appreciate
your unsolicited advice.
476
00:28:22,734 --> 00:28:24,301
I should run.
477
00:28:24,336 --> 00:28:25,469
Thank you.
478
00:28:25,504 --> 00:28:26,570
Good day.
479
00:28:29,908 --> 00:28:34,845
Do you think that my gift
could be perceived as...
480
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:35,979
impersonal?
481
00:29:05,244 --> 00:29:08,478
Aunt Patricia,
have you seen Christina?
482
00:29:08,514 --> 00:29:11,148
She finished her homework
and ran off to the rink.
483
00:29:13,285 --> 00:29:14,684
Thank you.
484
00:29:35,207 --> 00:29:38,108
You were amazing!
That was great.
485
00:29:38,143 --> 00:29:40,410
Why weren't you at tryouts?
486
00:29:40,445 --> 00:29:43,914
Because I don't want
to play Princess Sonia.
487
00:29:52,157 --> 00:29:53,356
Why not?
488
00:29:53,392 --> 00:29:56,393
I guess everyone
will be watching,
489
00:29:56,428 --> 00:29:59,462
and what if I mess up?
490
00:29:59,498 --> 00:30:01,531
Everyone messes up sometimes.
491
00:30:04,169 --> 00:30:05,735
Back when I was skating,
492
00:30:05,771 --> 00:30:08,205
I used to be so worried
about messing up my jumps.
493
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,706
But my mom,
who was also my coach,
494
00:30:09,741 --> 00:30:11,319
would always remind me
that in competition,
495
00:30:11,343 --> 00:30:13,043
you get points for trying.
496
00:30:13,078 --> 00:30:14,544
It doesn't matter if you fall.
497
00:30:16,039 --> 00:30:16,947
And she would also tell me,
498
00:30:16,982 --> 00:30:20,650
and I really wish I had listened
to her while I was skating,
499
00:30:20,686 --> 00:30:22,719
it doesn't matter
if you mess up.
500
00:30:22,754 --> 00:30:25,288
All that matters is that
you love being out on the ice.
501
00:30:26,325 --> 00:30:27,791
And I hate to typecast you,
502
00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:29,659
but you're an incredible
skating princess,
503
00:30:29,695 --> 00:30:32,996
and the pageant needs
an incredible skating princess.
504
00:30:33,031 --> 00:30:35,665
And you'll be
coaching the skaters?
505
00:30:35,701 --> 00:30:38,468
Yeah. We'll have lots of time
to work together.
506
00:30:38,503 --> 00:30:40,403
So?
507
00:30:43,342 --> 00:30:46,810
- Okay.
- Yes! High-five!
508
00:30:46,845 --> 00:30:49,679
I'm not sure princesses
are suppose to high-five.
509
00:30:49,715 --> 00:30:51,214
Okay. Low-five?
510
00:30:53,552 --> 00:30:55,652
Shall we start with your spiral?
511
00:31:01,793 --> 00:31:04,594
How's the planning?
512
00:31:04,630 --> 00:31:09,332
Well, despite being highly illogical
and quite impossible, it's going well.
513
00:31:09,368 --> 00:31:10,567
Good.
514
00:31:12,571 --> 00:31:15,972
I overheard you at the ice rink
earlier with Christina.
515
00:31:16,008 --> 00:31:19,943
- I hope I didn't overstep.
- No, not at all...
516
00:31:21,980 --> 00:31:23,546
Thanks.
517
00:31:23,582 --> 00:31:25,382
Actually, I wanted to thank you.
518
00:31:25,417 --> 00:31:30,453
She can be tough on herself
and take herself too seriously.
519
00:31:32,190 --> 00:31:33,723
It's been hard for her.
520
00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:36,293
She lost her mother
six years ago
521
00:31:36,328 --> 00:31:38,695
and her grandfather
three years ago.
522
00:31:38,730 --> 00:31:40,330
And she knows that
despite being a child,
523
00:31:40,365 --> 00:31:43,867
everyone sees her
as the person who will be queen.
524
00:31:43,902 --> 00:31:46,169
I just know that skating
is truly the place
525
00:31:46,204 --> 00:31:49,306
where she can just be herself.
526
00:31:49,341 --> 00:31:51,174
I understand that feeling.
527
00:31:53,278 --> 00:31:54,744
Well, thank you.
528
00:31:54,780 --> 00:31:58,648
You know, she's putting
this pageant on for you.
529
00:31:58,684 --> 00:32:02,852
I had my suspicions, with
the whole Grinch King fiasco.
530
00:32:02,888 --> 00:32:05,388
Yeah. She thinks
you're pretty great,
531
00:32:05,424 --> 00:32:08,491
wants everyone else to know too.
532
00:32:08,527 --> 00:32:10,660
But I think she also hopes
533
00:32:10,696 --> 00:32:13,163
this pageant will remind you
how much you love Christmas
534
00:32:13,198 --> 00:32:15,765
and then get you
into the holiday spirit.
535
00:32:15,801 --> 00:32:18,368
Well, I'll give it some thought.
536
00:32:18,403 --> 00:32:23,006
And as ever, I appreciate
your unsolicited advice.
537
00:32:23,439 --> 00:32:26,743
- Good night, Katie.
- Good night, Your Majesty.
538
00:32:27,879 --> 00:32:29,312
Just Alex.
539
00:32:30,482 --> 00:32:31,581
Good night, Alex.
540
00:32:46,265 --> 00:32:48,532
The guest list
for the Christmas Eve dinner.
541
00:32:48,567 --> 00:32:51,869
The Christmas Eve royal dinner.
542
00:32:51,904 --> 00:32:54,538
Reigning contender
for the worst night of the year.
543
00:32:54,573 --> 00:32:57,741
I wouldn't say contender, sir,
I'd say the heavyweight champion.
544
00:32:57,777 --> 00:32:59,688
You know, it was tolerable
when my father hosted it.
545
00:32:59,712 --> 00:33:01,979
Now it's unbearably stuffy.
546
00:33:03,683 --> 00:33:05,883
By the way,
I need you to reschedule
547
00:33:05,918 --> 00:33:08,852
my afternoon meeting
with the chancellor,
548
00:33:08,888 --> 00:33:11,221
I have a surprise planned
for Christina.
549
00:33:14,527 --> 00:33:16,160
The seamstress
is working on costumes,
550
00:33:16,195 --> 00:33:18,662
the set decorations
should be delivered today.
551
00:33:18,698 --> 00:33:21,065
The set designers
start tomorrow.
552
00:33:21,100 --> 00:33:23,545
Great, and I'd love to set up a
meeting with the lighting crew.
553
00:33:23,569 --> 00:33:25,002
I'll arrange that.
554
00:33:25,037 --> 00:33:27,071
And let me know anything else
I can help with.
555
00:33:27,106 --> 00:33:31,175
- Thank you so much.
- No, thank you.
556
00:33:31,210 --> 00:33:36,547
It's not often we get to have
this much fun around here.
557
00:33:37,155 --> 00:33:40,350
Don't worry. Everyone falls down.
Even me. All the time.
558
00:33:40,386 --> 00:33:44,321
I promise you're gonna get it.
Just takes a little bit of practice.
559
00:33:47,660 --> 00:33:50,961
- She's having trouble with her spiral.
- She's hard on herself.
560
00:33:50,996 --> 00:33:54,131
Yeah, well, she reminds me
of somebody else I know.
561
00:33:54,166 --> 00:33:57,316
I have to head to rehearsal
for the villagers.
562
00:34:04,610 --> 00:34:06,110
Christina, you're doing great.
563
00:34:06,145 --> 00:34:07,678
- No, I'm not.
- Yes, you are.
564
00:34:07,713 --> 00:34:10,280
But there are only
10 days until the pageant,
565
00:34:10,316 --> 00:34:13,417
and I still haven't got
the spiral perfect.
566
00:34:13,452 --> 00:34:15,552
And everyone's going
to be watching.
567
00:34:18,057 --> 00:34:19,330
Tina-bear.
568
00:34:19,892 --> 00:34:20,937
Daddy.
569
00:34:21,460 --> 00:34:22,960
Hey.
570
00:34:22,995 --> 00:34:25,429
- What are you doing here?
- Well, last night,
571
00:34:25,464 --> 00:34:28,132
I was thinking of something
your grandfather had said.
572
00:34:28,167 --> 00:34:31,368
That in a palace
filled with Christmas trees,
573
00:34:31,403 --> 00:34:34,805
we must have decorated one
ourselves.
574
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,951
You mean we're going to
decorate a Christmas tree.
575
00:34:37,075 --> 00:34:40,644
- We need to pick one out first.
- Yes! Can Katie come?
576
00:34:42,381 --> 00:34:47,684
Well, I'm sure Katie's quite busy,
but if she can spare an hour,
577
00:34:47,720 --> 00:34:50,387
we could certainly
use your Christmas expertise.
578
00:34:50,422 --> 00:34:52,489
Christmas is my middle name.
579
00:34:52,525 --> 00:34:55,793
Then you must join us because
my middle name is William.
580
00:34:59,398 --> 00:35:01,698
This one, this one, this one!
Can we get that one?
581
00:35:03,102 --> 00:35:05,202
No, no, this one.
I really like this one.
582
00:35:05,237 --> 00:35:07,671
Please, please, please,
please, please, please.
583
00:35:09,508 --> 00:35:12,543
This is turning into
a photo op for you.
584
00:35:12,578 --> 00:35:15,312
My life is one long
photo opportunity.
585
00:35:15,347 --> 00:35:17,181
The joys of being king.
586
00:35:17,216 --> 00:35:19,183
Don't have to tell me.
I was prom queen.
587
00:35:19,218 --> 00:35:22,386
I think I found it.
I think I found the perfect tree.
588
00:35:23,589 --> 00:35:25,389
This is the one.
589
00:35:25,424 --> 00:35:27,024
It is perfect.
590
00:35:28,861 --> 00:35:30,994
I'll ask Nicholas
to organize delivery.
591
00:35:33,199 --> 00:35:36,099
- What?
- Well, my family tradition is
592
00:35:36,135 --> 00:35:37,701
no Christmas tree shopping
is complete
593
00:35:37,736 --> 00:35:41,104
without struggling to get
the Christmas tree home.
594
00:35:41,140 --> 00:35:42,906
Really?
595
00:35:45,411 --> 00:35:49,012
Careful!
That was nearly the last of me.
596
00:35:52,484 --> 00:35:54,852
Okay, be careful.
597
00:35:56,088 --> 00:35:58,121
There? Okay.
Like here?
598
00:35:58,157 --> 00:36:00,090
- Yeah.
- It's beautiful.
599
00:36:00,125 --> 00:36:01,358
Okay.
600
00:36:02,328 --> 00:36:05,429
- Hot chocolate?
- Oh, honey, thank you.
601
00:36:05,464 --> 00:36:09,233
- You're welcome.
- Thank you.
602
00:36:09,268 --> 00:36:11,268
I just love this one.
603
00:36:20,679 --> 00:36:22,980
Why did I get this job?
604
00:36:23,015 --> 00:36:25,415
I think I assumed,
since you rule a country,
605
00:36:25,451 --> 00:36:28,051
you could probably untangle
some Christmas lights.
606
00:36:28,087 --> 00:36:31,421
Well, I've once more
proved you wrong.
607
00:36:33,592 --> 00:36:36,727
First, the struggle with
the Christmas tree home,
608
00:36:36,762 --> 00:36:38,662
and now the lights.
609
00:36:38,697 --> 00:36:40,297
Christmas should come
with a warning.
610
00:36:40,332 --> 00:36:43,000
Yes, warning.
Fun ahead.
611
00:36:43,035 --> 00:36:46,503
- Do you want some help?
- Yes, please.
612
00:36:46,538 --> 00:36:48,250
Some of these ornaments
are hundreds of years old.
613
00:36:48,274 --> 00:36:51,742
Then I probably
shouldn't touch them.
614
00:36:51,777 --> 00:36:54,945
I'm not used to Christmas trees
having so much history.
615
00:36:54,980 --> 00:36:57,080
Well, I'm used to being
surrounded by history.
616
00:36:57,116 --> 00:36:59,249
My family's always
worked for the Crown.
617
00:36:59,285 --> 00:37:03,353
My father assisted Alex's father.
My grandfather, his grandfather.
618
00:37:03,389 --> 00:37:05,689
You gotta keep untangling it.
619
00:37:05,724 --> 00:37:08,158
I think it would look
really good around you.
620
00:37:09,495 --> 00:37:10,705
We grew up together
like brothers.
621
00:37:10,729 --> 00:37:12,195
So was working at the palace
622
00:37:12,231 --> 00:37:14,331
something you always knew
you wanted to do?
623
00:37:14,366 --> 00:37:16,700
There was never any question
of doing anything else.
624
00:37:16,735 --> 00:37:18,635
I mean, it's a wonderful job.
625
00:37:18,671 --> 00:37:22,205
Sometimes I get to sit on the throne
when no one's looking.
626
00:37:24,643 --> 00:37:27,377
What about you? Did you always
know you wanted to skate?
627
00:37:27,413 --> 00:37:30,714
I did actually, yeah.
And so did Katie.
628
00:37:30,749 --> 00:37:33,951
We met when we were three.
We grew up on the ice together.
629
00:37:33,986 --> 00:37:36,153
All we ever dreamed about
was skating
630
00:37:36,188 --> 00:37:38,712
and competing and performing.
631
00:37:39,058 --> 00:37:41,525
And now we have a new dream.
632
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,360
I wanna buy an ice rink,
633
00:37:43,395 --> 00:37:46,463
start a training center
where we can coach skaters.
634
00:37:46,498 --> 00:37:48,899
I love to skate, but I could
always use some coaching,
635
00:37:48,934 --> 00:37:51,835
if you need the practice.
636
00:37:53,605 --> 00:37:56,473
Or we could do something else.
637
00:37:56,508 --> 00:37:58,976
I could take you
on a tour of San Senova.
638
00:38:00,412 --> 00:38:01,778
I'd love that.
639
00:38:03,215 --> 00:38:05,816
- Let's have a look.
- It looks great.
640
00:38:05,851 --> 00:38:08,051
- Well done.
- It looks so beautiful.
641
00:38:08,087 --> 00:38:12,189
- Looks very nice, guys.
- Look at the star.
642
00:38:12,224 --> 00:38:14,491
It's twinkling.
Should we take a photo?
643
00:38:19,898 --> 00:38:22,265
Miss Hendricks,
you're needed at the rink.
644
00:38:22,301 --> 00:38:25,769
- What's wrong?
- Jessica's hurt.
645
00:38:25,804 --> 00:38:28,505
I've already called
the palace doctor.
646
00:38:28,540 --> 00:38:30,207
Yeah, it's fine in there.
647
00:38:30,242 --> 00:38:31,341
The outside's where it's...
648
00:38:31,377 --> 00:38:33,777
- What happened?
- I slipped and fell wrong.
649
00:38:33,812 --> 00:38:36,179
She'll be fine.
It's just a bad sprain.
650
00:38:36,215 --> 00:38:37,726
Walking will be fine
in a couple of days,
651
00:38:37,750 --> 00:38:41,952
but no skating
for at least three weeks.
652
00:38:41,987 --> 00:38:43,286
- Three weeks?
- Three weeks?
653
00:38:43,322 --> 00:38:45,188
But the pageant's in nine days.
654
00:38:50,396 --> 00:38:52,696
Katie, you know
the choreography,
655
00:38:52,731 --> 00:38:55,198
and you will skate it
better than I ever could.
656
00:38:55,234 --> 00:38:58,402
I can't.
I have my old injury.
657
00:38:58,437 --> 00:39:01,972
And I haven't been
on the ice in years.
658
00:39:03,509 --> 00:39:06,510
We'll figure it out.
This country is full of ice skaters.
659
00:39:06,545 --> 00:39:11,181
We'll find someone to replace you.
I'll hold tryouts.
660
00:39:11,216 --> 00:39:13,550
Right, because you've
got nothing better to do.
661
00:39:13,585 --> 00:39:15,819
I have few things I need to do.
662
00:39:15,854 --> 00:39:18,321
Well, not to add to your list,
663
00:39:18,357 --> 00:39:21,491
but I heard from the real
estate broker this morning.
664
00:39:21,527 --> 00:39:23,326
We have some forms
we have to fill out,
665
00:39:23,362 --> 00:39:25,762
and she told me that
there might be an ice rink
666
00:39:25,798 --> 00:39:27,064
in Trenton going up for sale.
667
00:39:27,099 --> 00:39:28,665
It's like
a half-an-hour from us.
668
00:39:28,700 --> 00:39:30,367
Don't know why
we've never seen it.
669
00:39:30,402 --> 00:39:33,770
I haven't seen pictures yet,
but it sounds perfect.
670
00:39:33,806 --> 00:39:35,038
That's great.
671
00:39:38,277 --> 00:39:40,844
I hope I'm not interrupting.
672
00:39:40,879 --> 00:39:44,948
I brought you some flowers.
673
00:39:44,983 --> 00:39:46,616
Thank you.
674
00:39:46,652 --> 00:39:50,020
Beautiful flowers
for a beautiful lady.
675
00:39:52,391 --> 00:39:56,259
- How is your ankle?
- It's feeling a lot better, thank you.
676
00:39:56,295 --> 00:39:58,728
- Brilliant. Great.
- Thank you.
677
00:39:58,764 --> 00:40:01,965
I'll leave you two alone,
and I'll catch you later.
678
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:03,533
Okay.
679
00:40:05,604 --> 00:40:09,139
- What's going on with you two?
- Nothing.
680
00:40:09,174 --> 00:40:12,876
But he is handsome.
And odd, but in the best way.
681
00:40:12,911 --> 00:40:15,779
And he's really smart.
682
00:40:15,814 --> 00:40:18,982
- And?
- And I'm leaving soon.
683
00:40:19,017 --> 00:40:20,795
Well, you never know
how things will work out.
684
00:40:20,819 --> 00:40:22,586
Remember what my mom
used to say?
685
00:40:22,621 --> 00:40:25,388
"Christmas is a time
where we open our hearts".
686
00:40:25,424 --> 00:40:29,259
Oh, well, you know,
maybe you should open yours...
687
00:40:29,294 --> 00:40:31,461
to skating in the pageant.
688
00:40:36,034 --> 00:40:39,669
Could you help schedule tryouts
for the queen role tomorrow?
689
00:40:39,705 --> 00:40:42,005
Christina needs to skate with
someone as soon as possible.
690
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,241
- Happy to help.
- Thank you.
691
00:40:44,276 --> 00:40:45,976
Excuse me.
692
00:40:48,380 --> 00:40:49,479
Aunt Patricia.
693
00:40:51,350 --> 00:40:54,084
I'm so sorry
to hear about Jessica.
694
00:40:54,119 --> 00:40:56,786
- Thank you.
- I'll just...
695
00:41:01,193 --> 00:41:04,361
The pageant being illogical
and impossible
696
00:41:04,396 --> 00:41:06,129
is growing increasingly real.
697
00:41:07,199 --> 00:41:08,999
Well, I have faith in you.
698
00:41:09,034 --> 00:41:11,168
And actually,
I have a little matter
699
00:41:11,203 --> 00:41:13,370
I could use your advice on.
700
00:41:13,405 --> 00:41:17,974
I've reconsidered your take
on the palace staff Christmas gifts.
701
00:41:18,010 --> 00:41:20,477
- You did, did you?
- I did.
702
00:41:20,512 --> 00:41:23,880
And I could see how my gift
could be perceived as...
703
00:41:23,916 --> 00:41:25,682
Bad?
704
00:41:25,717 --> 00:41:28,818
I was going to say
"unsentimental", but...
705
00:41:28,854 --> 00:41:30,520
That's the word
I was looking for.
706
00:41:30,556 --> 00:41:32,222
I know you've got
a lot on your plate,
707
00:41:32,257 --> 00:41:35,358
and heaven knows nobody needs
this pageant to succeed
708
00:41:35,394 --> 00:41:37,794
more than the Grinch King.
709
00:41:37,829 --> 00:41:41,965
I was hoping you could help
with some pointers
710
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,134
on my gift giving.
711
00:41:44,169 --> 00:41:46,536
I would love to.
712
00:41:46,572 --> 00:41:49,172
For the palace staff,
the kitchen crew,
713
00:41:49,208 --> 00:41:51,875
Regina, Margaret, Dawson.
714
00:41:54,713 --> 00:41:58,248
- Perhaps a coffee cup for Dawson.
- Does he drink a lot of coffee?
715
00:41:58,283 --> 00:41:59,883
No, he doesn't.
716
00:41:59,918 --> 00:42:02,152
Help. I'm failing Christmas.
717
00:42:02,187 --> 00:42:04,888
Okay, well,
everyone who knows me
718
00:42:04,923 --> 00:42:06,590
knows how much I love
Christmas ornaments.
719
00:42:06,625 --> 00:42:08,225
I have a collection,
720
00:42:08,260 --> 00:42:10,004
although I'm never home
to hang them on the tree.
721
00:42:10,028 --> 00:42:12,262
But, as gifts,
I receive a lot of ornaments
722
00:42:12,297 --> 00:42:14,531
with personal significance,
and I love them.
723
00:42:14,566 --> 00:42:18,235
So I get the staff ornaments?
724
00:42:19,171 --> 00:42:20,771
I think the key is
to give something
725
00:42:20,806 --> 00:42:24,074
that tells everyone the place
they have in your heart.
726
00:42:26,579 --> 00:42:29,713
Okay, let's see
what we can find.
727
00:42:31,851 --> 00:42:34,718
I'll take one of these.
728
00:42:34,753 --> 00:42:37,020
Two of these.
Here, hold that.
729
00:42:37,056 --> 00:42:39,723
I'm sorry,
but the gift is socks?
730
00:42:39,758 --> 00:42:43,293
Aren't socks considered universally
the worst Christmas gifts?
731
00:42:43,329 --> 00:42:46,063
Not socks.
Christmas stockings.
732
00:42:46,098 --> 00:42:48,065
You'll hand-make them
for the staff,
733
00:42:48,100 --> 00:42:49,967
and we'll hang them
above the fireplace.
734
00:42:50,002 --> 00:42:53,871
You can fill them with the cards
and the personal gifts
735
00:42:53,906 --> 00:42:56,306
to show them how much you care.
736
00:42:57,776 --> 00:43:00,677
I'm still struggling
with the hand-make part.
737
00:43:00,713 --> 00:43:02,145
I'll help you.
738
00:43:02,181 --> 00:43:04,748
Okay, I'll sew, you decorate.
739
00:43:04,783 --> 00:43:07,851
Well, it definitely won't be
the other way around.
740
00:43:07,887 --> 00:43:09,519
How do you know
how to do all this?
741
00:43:09,555 --> 00:43:10,888
I used to do it with my mom.
742
00:43:10,923 --> 00:43:14,892
She loved Christmas, went all out.
Everything handmade, DIY.
743
00:43:16,395 --> 00:43:19,062
My mother passed away
when I was very young.
744
00:43:19,098 --> 00:43:20,831
I never really knew her.
745
00:43:20,866 --> 00:43:24,735
But my father,
he loved Christmas.
746
00:43:24,770 --> 00:43:28,405
Sounds like a great guy already.
What was he like?
747
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,674
Magnanimous, beloved.
748
00:43:30,709 --> 00:43:32,843
I feel like I've heard that
somewhere before.
749
00:43:32,878 --> 00:43:35,846
Often it was actually true
with him.
750
00:43:35,881 --> 00:43:38,515
I'm not quite the king
that he was.
751
00:43:39,485 --> 00:43:42,619
- You miss him.
- Yeah, I do.
752
00:43:42,655 --> 00:43:46,023
All the time,
especially at Christmas.
753
00:43:46,058 --> 00:43:47,925
I get that.
754
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,595
The first couple Christmases
after my mom passed away,
755
00:43:51,630 --> 00:43:54,598
every garland and carol
reminded me of her.
756
00:43:54,633 --> 00:43:57,134
It was hard.
757
00:43:57,169 --> 00:44:01,838
But now Christmas has become
a way of celebrating her memory.
758
00:44:09,615 --> 00:44:11,915
- Shall we?
- Okay.
759
00:44:23,629 --> 00:44:29,032
Sorry they're late,
but some good press.
760
00:44:34,006 --> 00:44:37,074
Katie is rather something.
761
00:44:38,177 --> 00:44:39,876
Yes, I suppose.
762
00:44:41,113 --> 00:44:45,649
Alex, it is okay
to get close to someone again.
763
00:44:45,684 --> 00:44:47,851
I know losing Victoria
was hard...
764
00:44:47,886 --> 00:44:51,021
Nicholas...
765
00:44:51,056 --> 00:44:55,192
the menu the kitchen sent over
for the Christmas Eve dinner.
766
00:44:55,227 --> 00:44:56,526
Yes.
767
00:44:56,562 --> 00:45:00,664
Can you pass it along to Patricia
and ask if she'll handle it?
768
00:45:01,667 --> 00:45:03,667
Yes, Your Majesty.
769
00:45:26,925 --> 00:45:27,958
- Hi.
- Hi.
770
00:45:27,993 --> 00:45:29,693
How's it going?
771
00:45:29,728 --> 00:45:33,196
Well, given there's a week until
Christmas, better than expected.
772
00:45:33,232 --> 00:45:36,700
- Do you want to sit?
- Yeah, sure.
773
00:45:36,735 --> 00:45:38,035
How's the ankle?
774
00:45:38,070 --> 00:45:40,037
It's healing well.
Walking is fine.
775
00:45:40,072 --> 00:45:44,875
It's just bad timing with the pageant
and having to find a replacement.
776
00:45:44,910 --> 00:45:47,377
- And what about you?
- I'm ready for something new.
777
00:45:47,413 --> 00:45:50,747
- The training center.
- What about you?
778
00:45:50,783 --> 00:45:53,016
Do you think you'll stay
at the palace forever?
779
00:45:53,052 --> 00:45:55,152
I'm not quite sure
what else I'd do.
780
00:45:55,187 --> 00:45:56,820
What else would you want to do?
781
00:45:56,855 --> 00:45:58,688
But I've lived in San Senova
my whole life,
782
00:45:58,724 --> 00:46:02,192
so maybe go somewhere different,
try something new,
783
00:46:02,227 --> 00:46:03,527
throw caution to the wind.
784
00:46:03,562 --> 00:46:05,595
You know, have an adventure.
785
00:46:07,466 --> 00:46:09,032
Sounds exciting.
786
00:46:11,637 --> 00:46:13,870
Speaking of adventure,
787
00:46:13,906 --> 00:46:16,239
didn't you promise me
a tour of San Senova?
788
00:46:16,275 --> 00:46:19,776
I'm not quite sure it's
an adventure, but yes, I did.
789
00:46:19,812 --> 00:46:21,578
Tomorrow?
790
00:46:21,613 --> 00:46:22,712
It's a date.
791
00:46:22,748 --> 00:46:24,681
Great.
792
00:46:42,768 --> 00:46:44,568
Christina?
793
00:46:44,603 --> 00:46:46,903
We're supposed to be rehearsing.
794
00:46:46,905 --> 00:46:49,940
Jessica's replacement's
coming to practice with you.
795
00:46:49,975 --> 00:46:52,309
Well...
796
00:46:52,344 --> 00:46:54,144
What's going on?
797
00:46:54,179 --> 00:46:56,446
I don't want to play
Princess Sonia anymore.
798
00:47:04,256 --> 00:47:08,291
When I was skating with Jessica,
she's the star.
799
00:47:08,327 --> 00:47:10,961
I knew everyone
would be looking at her.
800
00:47:10,996 --> 00:47:14,498
But now everyone
will be looking at me,
801
00:47:14,533 --> 00:47:17,000
and they'll expect me
to be perfect.
802
00:47:17,035 --> 00:47:19,169
Why would they expect that?
803
00:47:19,204 --> 00:47:23,807
Because princesses
are supposed to be perfect.
804
00:47:23,842 --> 00:47:26,409
Like Cinderella.
805
00:47:26,445 --> 00:47:28,011
No one's perfect.
806
00:47:28,046 --> 00:47:31,081
And Cinderella
definitely wasn't perfect.
807
00:47:31,116 --> 00:47:32,983
She was always running late
and losing things,
808
00:47:33,018 --> 00:47:34,985
like the glass slipper.
809
00:47:35,020 --> 00:47:37,787
It's one thing
I'll never understand.
810
00:47:37,823 --> 00:47:41,124
If that slipper fit perfectly,
then why did it fall off?
811
00:47:43,028 --> 00:47:45,195
And Cinderella
was a terrible figure skater.
812
00:47:45,230 --> 00:47:47,097
She was?
813
00:47:47,132 --> 00:47:50,133
How could she not be?
Her coach was a pumpkin.
814
00:47:55,707 --> 00:48:01,235
Sometimes it's just a little hard
being out there on the ice.
815
00:48:02,414 --> 00:48:06,550
It is.
But I think that's part of it.
816
00:48:06,585 --> 00:48:11,955
We can't let our fears hold us back
from doing what we love most.
817
00:48:16,562 --> 00:48:18,595
What if I were to skate
the queen role?
818
00:48:19,665 --> 00:48:22,499
- You'd skate with me?
- Yeah.
819
00:48:22,534 --> 00:48:25,902
But aren't you hurt?
820
00:48:25,938 --> 00:48:28,205
Well, let's just hope
I'm all healed up.
821
00:48:41,155 --> 00:48:43,022
San Senova is so beautiful.
822
00:48:43,073 --> 00:48:45,324
You should come back in summer
when everything's in bloom.
823
00:48:45,860 --> 00:48:49,228
- I'll take you to the mountains.
- I'd like that.
824
00:48:51,399 --> 00:48:54,500
- Are you okay?
- Fine.
825
00:48:57,438 --> 00:48:59,105
Apologies.
826
00:48:59,140 --> 00:49:00,740
No, it's okay.
827
00:49:05,914 --> 00:49:10,082
He's so sweet and so hilarious,
and he just...
828
00:49:10,118 --> 00:49:12,084
he just makes me feel
all fluttery.
829
00:49:13,421 --> 00:49:16,756
- I'm so happy for you.
- Thanks.
830
00:49:16,791 --> 00:49:19,659
And not to change the subject
because I do want to hear everything,
831
00:49:19,694 --> 00:49:21,605
but I did sign the forms
that we need to send back
832
00:49:21,629 --> 00:49:22,595
to the real estate broker.
833
00:49:22,630 --> 00:49:24,263
Perfect, okay.
834
00:49:24,299 --> 00:49:26,566
Excuse me, ladies.
835
00:49:28,202 --> 00:49:31,237
I would like to invite you
to the royal Christmas tea
836
00:49:31,272 --> 00:49:33,072
tomorrow afternoon.
837
00:49:33,107 --> 00:49:34,974
It's an age-old tradition.
838
00:49:35,009 --> 00:49:39,745
We'll have tea, finger sandwiches,
and traditional Christmas desserts.
839
00:49:39,781 --> 00:49:42,114
My father and I used
to bake cookies for it.
840
00:49:42,150 --> 00:49:44,617
Maybe that's something
Christina would love to do.
841
00:49:44,652 --> 00:49:47,687
- Well, I'm not much of a baker.
- Well, Katie's a great baker.
842
00:49:49,924 --> 00:49:51,401
Yeah, she used to make
these delicious
843
00:49:51,425 --> 00:49:54,026
frosted gingerbread cookies
with her mom,
844
00:49:54,061 --> 00:49:55,527
and I'm sure she'd love to help.
845
00:49:55,563 --> 00:49:57,763
I know you're very busy, Katie,
846
00:49:57,798 --> 00:50:02,368
but if you could spare the time,
I'm sure Christina would love it.
847
00:50:02,403 --> 00:50:04,536
Anything for Christina.
848
00:50:04,572 --> 00:50:07,473
Very well.
Good afternoon.
849
00:50:11,946 --> 00:50:15,714
- What was that?
- That? That was awkward.
850
00:50:15,750 --> 00:50:17,750
No, he's not interested.
851
00:50:19,220 --> 00:50:22,888
I have seen him looking at you,
and yes, he is.
852
00:50:22,924 --> 00:50:25,891
No, Jessica, he's not.
He dates...
853
00:50:26,027 --> 00:50:28,160
I don't know who he dates,
but not people like me.
854
00:50:28,195 --> 00:50:30,863
Why is it that you always think
you're not good enough?
855
00:50:30,898 --> 00:50:32,664
I don't.
I think I'm great.
856
00:50:32,700 --> 00:50:34,466
- Good.
- But he's a king who's here,
857
00:50:34,502 --> 00:50:36,168
- and I'm...
- Also here right now.
858
00:50:36,203 --> 00:50:38,003
And as you pointed out earlier,
leaving.
859
00:50:38,039 --> 00:50:42,374
What was that thing that your
mom used to say about Christmas?
860
00:50:42,410 --> 00:50:44,476
That it's a time when
you should open your heart.
861
00:50:44,512 --> 00:50:47,579
And I opened my heart
to skating in the pageant.
862
00:50:47,615 --> 00:50:51,016
Speaking of, I should go
rehearse with Christina.
863
00:50:51,052 --> 00:50:53,352
It's my first time
on the ice in years.
864
00:50:53,387 --> 00:50:55,487
- Wish me luck.
- Luck.
865
00:50:56,457 --> 00:50:57,790
Nice. Good job, Laney.
866
00:51:00,895 --> 00:51:02,661
Good, Samantha.
867
00:51:05,966 --> 00:51:10,569
High. Pick up your feet.
Seth, pick up your feet a bit.
868
00:51:15,276 --> 00:51:16,383
Are you ready?
869
00:51:17,945 --> 00:51:20,412
You know...
870
00:51:22,283 --> 00:51:25,784
Actually, your dad wanted us
to make Christmas cookies,
871
00:51:25,820 --> 00:51:27,531
so why don't I get everything
ready in the kitchen,
872
00:51:27,555 --> 00:51:30,222
and you can rehearse
with the other kids.
873
00:51:30,257 --> 00:51:31,590
But I don't know them.
874
00:51:31,625 --> 00:51:35,661
Then show them who you really are
because everyone likes that person.
875
00:51:37,231 --> 00:51:39,598
I know it can be scary
to put yourself out there,
876
00:51:39,633 --> 00:51:42,101
but it's worth it.
877
00:51:50,578 --> 00:51:52,411
And then David with the hat
said, "Yay".
878
00:51:52,446 --> 00:51:54,458
And then the other kids
invited me to carol with them
879
00:51:54,482 --> 00:51:56,215
at the Christmas Market
on Friday.
880
00:51:56,250 --> 00:52:01,053
- Can I go?
- Yeah, of course you can, honey.
881
00:52:01,088 --> 00:52:04,990
We'll perform on Friday at 3:00.
Katie, can you come?
882
00:52:05,025 --> 00:52:07,159
Yeah, definitely.
883
00:52:07,194 --> 00:52:10,362
Dad, can you?
884
00:52:12,666 --> 00:52:14,099
I'll try my best.
885
00:52:18,939 --> 00:52:22,407
So I'm stirring, your dad
is still rolling out the dough,
886
00:52:22,443 --> 00:52:25,477
although why it's taking him
so long is a great mystery.
887
00:52:25,513 --> 00:52:27,446
Well, I'm trying
to get it perfect.
888
00:52:27,481 --> 00:52:30,682
It's a sugar cookie, not an
amendment to the Constitution.
889
00:52:30,718 --> 00:52:33,185
My mom used to say no matter
how good the cookie looks,
890
00:52:33,220 --> 00:52:35,420
you should always taste it
just to make sure.
891
00:52:35,456 --> 00:52:38,757
Well, a job that important
definitely needs all of us.
892
00:52:40,060 --> 00:52:41,627
Thank you very much.
893
00:52:41,662 --> 00:52:44,997
Thank you. Cheers.
894
00:52:45,032 --> 00:52:46,431
Cheers.
895
00:53:15,229 --> 00:53:18,297
Thank you for the baking lesson.
896
00:53:18,332 --> 00:53:20,832
- It was marvelous.
- For me too.
897
00:53:20,868 --> 00:53:25,204
It's been a long time
since I baked Christmas cookies.
898
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:29,975
So are you enjoying yourself, or
does the question need not be asked?
899
00:53:30,010 --> 00:53:34,213
- It's very well-organized.
- It is.
900
00:53:34,248 --> 00:53:38,517
You know, it could do with
a little bit more holiday cheer.
901
00:53:38,552 --> 00:53:41,386
You should come to the
Christmas Eve black tie dinner.
902
00:53:41,422 --> 00:53:44,189
In comparison,
this is a carnival.
903
00:53:44,225 --> 00:53:45,691
I'm confused.
904
00:53:45,726 --> 00:53:47,237
If your father
loved Christmas so much,
905
00:53:47,261 --> 00:53:52,231
then why is it so...
not festive?
906
00:53:52,266 --> 00:53:55,901
My father was the one
who made these events festive.
907
00:53:55,936 --> 00:53:58,422
- He enjoyed the gatherings.
- You don't?
908
00:53:59,940 --> 00:54:02,874
Not so much.
909
00:54:02,910 --> 00:54:05,043
Maybe you should start
your own traditions.
910
00:54:05,079 --> 00:54:06,912
New traditions.
911
00:54:08,115 --> 00:54:10,215
Speaking of new traditions,
912
00:54:10,251 --> 00:54:12,417
I have something
I want to show you.
913
00:54:12,453 --> 00:54:14,419
Does it mean we get to leave?
914
00:54:14,455 --> 00:54:15,754
Yes.
915
00:54:21,962 --> 00:54:23,462
Here we are.
916
00:54:24,965 --> 00:54:26,932
For Regina, my driver,
917
00:54:26,967 --> 00:54:29,601
a cashmere scarf
and some driving gloves.
918
00:54:29,637 --> 00:54:30,969
That's perfect.
919
00:54:31,005 --> 00:54:33,372
And then for Margaret,
the head chef,
920
00:54:33,407 --> 00:54:36,808
a set of antique serving spoons
she's always admired.
921
00:54:36,844 --> 00:54:38,510
That's a great idea.
922
00:54:41,582 --> 00:54:42,948
Thank you so much.
923
00:54:47,488 --> 00:54:49,154
Okay, you...
924
00:54:49,189 --> 00:54:53,458
- They look cozy.
- They sure do.
925
00:54:53,494 --> 00:54:55,527
All right.
926
00:55:56,657 --> 00:55:57,689
Hello.
927
00:55:58,325 --> 00:56:00,459
What has you awake at this hour?
928
00:56:00,494 --> 00:56:03,662
I couldn't sleep. Thought
I'd make some hot chocolate.
929
00:56:05,165 --> 00:56:09,434
Curing insomnia
with sugar and caffeine?
930
00:56:11,905 --> 00:56:14,639
I can ask the staff to help.
931
00:56:14,675 --> 00:56:17,743
No, I'm perfectly capable
of boiling milk and chocolate.
932
00:56:17,778 --> 00:56:20,979
So you're sure don't need
any help at all?
933
00:56:22,182 --> 00:56:24,216
Maybe a little.
934
00:56:27,020 --> 00:56:30,355
So do you often have chocolate
in the middle of the night?
935
00:56:30,391 --> 00:56:33,992
Well, I figure chocolate
comes from cocoa,
936
00:56:34,027 --> 00:56:36,228
which comes from a tree,
which makes it a plant,
937
00:56:36,263 --> 00:56:38,096
which means
I'm kind of having a salad.
938
00:56:38,098 --> 00:56:41,500
I like your logic.
Can you keep a secret?
939
00:56:41,535 --> 00:56:43,702
I keep a stash of candy
in my office.
940
00:56:43,737 --> 00:56:45,704
Oh, a state secret.
941
00:56:49,143 --> 00:56:53,545
So the pageant's in five days,
and then you go home?
942
00:56:56,116 --> 00:56:57,916
I do.
943
00:56:57,951 --> 00:57:00,452
Although...
944
00:57:00,487 --> 00:57:02,921
What?
945
00:57:02,956 --> 00:57:06,892
I guess I've been
in such a big rush to get home,
946
00:57:06,927 --> 00:57:11,930
but lately I've realized why I spent
the past four years on the road.
947
00:57:11,965 --> 00:57:16,902
To me, home is where my mom was,
especially at Christmas.
948
00:57:16,937 --> 00:57:19,871
I guess I'm not so sure if going home
is actually gonna feel like home.
949
00:57:22,176 --> 00:57:23,575
I mean, back in New Jersey,
950
00:57:23,610 --> 00:57:26,478
I have a lot of people I love...
friends, family.
951
00:57:26,513 --> 00:57:27,879
A beau?
952
00:57:29,616 --> 00:57:34,052
- No, no beau.
- Oh, no...
953
00:57:34,087 --> 00:57:37,355
Well, I find that hard to believe.
Why not?
954
00:57:39,159 --> 00:57:42,394
I was dating someone, but
touring and distance took a toll,
955
00:57:42,429 --> 00:57:46,097
and I don't think I wanted
to get close to anyone else.
956
00:57:46,133 --> 00:57:47,732
How come?
957
00:57:50,337 --> 00:57:52,503
After my mom passed away, I...
958
00:57:54,541 --> 00:57:57,809
I didn't want
to lose anyone else.
959
00:57:57,845 --> 00:57:59,978
What if you didn't
have to lose anyone?
960
00:58:06,386 --> 00:58:08,620
What about you?
Do you date?
961
00:58:08,655 --> 00:58:11,323
Not since
Christina's mother passed.
962
00:58:13,627 --> 00:58:16,962
I've devoted all my free time
to Christina.
963
00:58:16,997 --> 00:58:21,500
Plus, dating in the national
spotlight's a little bit daunting.
964
00:58:21,535 --> 00:58:25,537
Although I think
I'm ready to find someone.
965
00:58:25,572 --> 00:58:28,173
I know how much
Christina wants a family.
966
00:58:28,208 --> 00:58:30,775
And when I see her with you...
967
00:58:35,082 --> 00:58:37,382
I should get back to this.
968
00:58:37,417 --> 00:58:41,319
What is it,
some more state secrets?
969
00:58:41,355 --> 00:58:44,489
It's the Christmas Eve
dinner plan.
970
00:58:46,093 --> 00:58:48,994
So it's who's invited,
who sits where.
971
00:58:49,029 --> 00:58:50,695
The diplomats
with the diplomats,
972
00:58:50,731 --> 00:58:53,365
and the Cabinet is separated,
so they don't fight.
973
00:58:57,104 --> 00:58:59,337
Where would a commoner
like me sit?
974
00:59:01,041 --> 00:59:03,642
Well, there's nothing common
about you at all.
975
00:59:03,677 --> 00:59:08,346
So I mean, if you were to come
to the Christmas Eve dinner,
976
00:59:08,382 --> 00:59:10,949
I would seat you
right next to me.
977
00:59:23,463 --> 00:59:24,996
I have some news.
978
00:59:25,032 --> 00:59:26,976
I just got off the phone
with the real estate broker.
979
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:28,767
The rink I was telling
you about in Trenton,
980
00:59:28,802 --> 00:59:30,802
- it just came on the market.
- That's great.
981
00:59:30,837 --> 00:59:33,116
Except that there's already some
potential buyers interested,
982
00:59:33,140 --> 00:59:35,840
so I was thinking maybe I should
go home and take a look at it.
983
00:59:35,876 --> 00:59:38,443
Okay, well, I...
984
00:59:38,478 --> 00:59:40,078
Besides you're gonna be home
in five days,
985
00:59:40,113 --> 00:59:42,914
and until then,
I will fill you in on everything.
986
00:59:42,950 --> 00:59:44,449
Okay.
987
00:59:48,122 --> 00:59:50,722
I'm so sorry
I have to leave so early.
988
00:59:53,494 --> 00:59:56,628
- Will you come back soon?
- I hope so.
989
00:59:58,632 --> 01:00:01,466
And I'll come visit you
in New Jersey.
990
01:00:01,502 --> 01:00:04,403
New. And then we'll go
visit Old Jersey together.
991
01:00:05,506 --> 01:00:07,239
- Bye, guys.
- Bye!
992
01:00:07,274 --> 01:00:08,807
- I love you.
- Call me when you land.
993
01:00:08,842 --> 01:00:10,742
I will, I promise.
994
01:00:17,785 --> 01:00:20,452
Are you sure you're able
to travel in this state?
995
01:00:20,487 --> 01:00:23,955
- I'll be okay.
- You don't need any assistance?
996
01:00:23,991 --> 01:00:25,891
Is that an option?
997
01:00:31,365 --> 01:00:34,399
- I'll come visit.
- I'd love that.
998
01:01:07,601 --> 01:01:10,168
You sound so beautiful,
Tina-bear.
999
01:01:11,705 --> 01:01:13,572
I'm just practicing
for caroling tomorrow.
1000
01:01:13,607 --> 01:01:15,741
And everyone asked me
to go sledding after.
1001
01:01:15,776 --> 01:01:18,477
- Can I go?
- Well, do you have time?
1002
01:01:18,512 --> 01:01:21,747
Well, I already know my part.
I'm just waiting for Katie.
1003
01:01:21,782 --> 01:01:24,149
And what's wrong?
1004
01:01:24,184 --> 01:01:27,319
I'm waiting for her
to want to practice together.
1005
01:01:27,354 --> 01:01:29,488
I don't think
she wants to skate.
1006
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:55,414
What are you doing?
1007
01:01:55,449 --> 01:01:58,183
Going over the pageant
choreography in my head.
1008
01:01:59,787 --> 01:02:02,721
Why in your head?
Why not just skate it?
1009
01:02:04,124 --> 01:02:08,271
I tell myself that even though
in my dreams I'm on the ice,
1010
01:02:08,306 --> 01:02:11,763
and every time I hear music,
I envision myself doing a routine,
1011
01:02:11,799 --> 01:02:15,934
I still tell myself
I'm okay not skating.
1012
01:02:15,969 --> 01:02:19,438
But agreeing to be in the pageant
and working with Christina,
1013
01:02:19,473 --> 01:02:22,441
it's made me realize
that I miss skating...
1014
01:02:22,476 --> 01:02:24,009
so much.
1015
01:02:27,347 --> 01:02:29,781
I'm scared to get
back out there.
1016
01:02:33,020 --> 01:02:37,255
You know,
I'm terrified to be king.
1017
01:02:37,291 --> 01:02:40,425
But I can't not do it
just because I'm afraid.
1018
01:03:21,068 --> 01:03:24,035
I didn't think
you could make it.
1019
01:03:24,071 --> 01:03:26,137
Do you remember
this is where first met?
1020
01:03:26,173 --> 01:03:28,940
- When you were hiding.
- I wasn't hiding.
1021
01:04:17,024 --> 01:04:19,724
San Senova is famous
for its night skies.
1022
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:22,127
Is that why you have
a star on your flag?
1023
01:04:22,162 --> 01:04:26,531
Partially, but legend has it
that the star on the flag
1024
01:04:26,566 --> 01:04:28,233
is actually the Christmas star.
1025
01:04:28,268 --> 01:04:30,902
You're familiar with the story
of Princess Sonia...
1026
01:04:30,937 --> 01:04:32,370
Very well by now.
1027
01:04:32,405 --> 01:04:36,608
Well, the legend says
that as the night fell,
1028
01:04:36,643 --> 01:04:39,778
Sonia and Catherine
followed the Christmas star
1029
01:04:39,813 --> 01:04:42,447
and guided the villagers
back to safety.
1030
01:04:42,482 --> 01:04:44,649
I didn't think
the Christmas star was real.
1031
01:04:44,684 --> 01:04:47,085
You know, my father
use explain it as
1032
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,488
like a personal guiding light,
1033
01:04:50,524 --> 01:04:52,624
something inside of us.
1034
01:04:52,659 --> 01:04:54,225
He used to say
that if I was ever lost
1035
01:04:54,261 --> 01:04:57,295
and didn't know which way to go,
1036
01:04:57,330 --> 01:04:59,931
I could come out
and find the San Senova star,
1037
01:04:59,966 --> 01:05:02,801
the Christmas Star,
and it'd guide me home.
1038
01:05:02,836 --> 01:05:04,803
That's what
you're doing out here.
1039
01:05:04,838 --> 01:05:07,505
Looking for guidance.
1040
01:05:07,541 --> 01:05:10,675
I guess I am.
1041
01:05:10,710 --> 01:05:14,179
You know, I don't always know
how to be king,
1042
01:05:14,214 --> 01:05:16,648
so I come out here,
and I find that star
1043
01:05:16,683 --> 01:05:20,084
and try and remember who I am,
1044
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,388
what I want, and what I love.
1045
01:05:28,562 --> 01:05:31,496
What star do you
imagine it to be?
1046
01:05:31,531 --> 01:05:35,667
That's easy. It's...
It's that one.
1047
01:05:35,702 --> 01:05:38,169
- It's that one?
- No, no.
1048
01:05:44,110 --> 01:05:45,376
It's...
1049
01:05:47,714 --> 01:05:50,048
that one there.
1050
01:06:07,601 --> 01:06:09,167
Sorry.
1051
01:06:10,971 --> 01:06:12,237
Of course.
1052
01:06:13,607 --> 01:06:15,573
- Hi.
- Katie, hi.
1053
01:06:15,609 --> 01:06:18,209
I'm at the rink, and it's...
it's perfect.
1054
01:06:18,245 --> 01:06:22,046
But there are other buyers, and
one's already putting in an offer.
1055
01:06:22,082 --> 01:06:23,326
- What should I do?
- I don't know.
1056
01:06:23,350 --> 01:06:25,116
Do we have to make an offer now?
1057
01:06:25,151 --> 01:06:27,418
The pageant's in three days.
I'll be home in four.
1058
01:06:27,454 --> 01:06:29,320
Okay.
1059
01:06:29,356 --> 01:06:31,723
Okay, yeah,
I'll try to buy us time.
1060
01:06:31,758 --> 01:06:33,324
Okay, yeah, just keep me posted.
1061
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,960
- I will. Bye.
- Bye.
1062
01:06:38,698 --> 01:06:40,331
It's getting cold.
1063
01:06:40,367 --> 01:06:44,068
- We should probably go in.
- Yeah.
1064
01:06:57,284 --> 01:06:59,551
Do you have a grievance
with that parcel, sir?
1065
01:06:59,787 --> 01:07:02,521
Would you like to try?
1066
01:07:10,565 --> 01:07:13,706
- What is it?
- It's a little something for Katie.
1067
01:07:14,893 --> 01:07:17,412
She's leaving soon,
so it's the least I could do.
1068
01:07:17,571 --> 01:07:20,305
After all,
she produced the pageant,
1069
01:07:20,341 --> 01:07:22,541
helped with the staff
Christmas gifts.
1070
01:07:22,576 --> 01:07:25,177
- Christina really loves her and...
- And you have feelings.
1071
01:07:27,014 --> 01:07:28,714
What makes you think
I have feelings?
1072
01:07:30,117 --> 01:07:32,885
The article in the paper, sir.
1073
01:07:36,924 --> 01:07:39,291
Alex, relax.
1074
01:07:39,326 --> 01:07:43,395
You're allowed to have feelings.
No one's gonna judge you for it.
1075
01:07:43,431 --> 01:07:46,298
In fact, people will like you
all the more.
1076
01:07:46,333 --> 01:07:48,901
- Katie's leaving.
- So?
1077
01:07:48,936 --> 01:07:51,970
I've heard there's
this miraculous invention
1078
01:07:52,006 --> 01:07:54,473
called "the aeroplane".
1079
01:07:56,043 --> 01:07:58,644
You could go there,
she could come here.
1080
01:08:00,347 --> 01:08:02,414
It's just not that simple.
1081
01:08:02,450 --> 01:08:04,950
She can't imagine how difficult
this whole situation is.
1082
01:08:04,985 --> 01:08:07,820
No, you're right.
She can't imagine it,
1083
01:08:07,855 --> 01:08:11,090
so you're going
to have to tell her.
1084
01:08:13,661 --> 01:08:15,294
Okay, first run-through in five.
1085
01:08:15,329 --> 01:08:17,463
Katie, Alex is asking to see you.
1086
01:08:17,498 --> 01:08:20,265
Now? We're about to do
our first run-through.
1087
01:08:20,301 --> 01:08:23,368
Well, I can take over
for you for a bit.
1088
01:08:23,404 --> 01:08:27,673
I get to pretend I'm in charge.
Mustn't keep the king waiting.
1089
01:08:27,708 --> 01:08:29,408
Thank you.
1090
01:08:41,388 --> 01:08:43,288
- Hello.
- Hi.
1091
01:08:43,324 --> 01:08:46,125
I didn't know
if you'd seen this.
1092
01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:49,728
I didn't.
1093
01:08:49,763 --> 01:08:51,130
What do you think?
1094
01:08:51,165 --> 01:08:55,367
I think the photographer
got my good side?
1095
01:08:55,402 --> 01:08:57,536
I like that about you.
1096
01:08:57,571 --> 01:08:59,505
My photogenic angles?
1097
01:08:59,540 --> 01:09:01,473
Your ability to see
the good in everything.
1098
01:09:03,844 --> 01:09:06,712
Because you don't see
the good in this.
1099
01:09:06,747 --> 01:09:09,882
It's just not so simple as a flirtation
when the country's watching
1100
01:09:09,917 --> 01:09:14,052
and Christina is growing attached,
and you're leaving.
1101
01:09:15,623 --> 01:09:19,057
I understand it's not
so simple a flirtation.
1102
01:09:19,093 --> 01:09:21,760
- That's not what I meant.
- It's okay because it's true.
1103
01:09:21,795 --> 01:09:25,754
That's, that's all it is.
You're a king, and I'm...
1104
01:09:27,601 --> 01:09:29,067
...leaving.
1105
01:09:32,239 --> 01:09:35,240
So what else is there to say?
1106
01:09:40,814 --> 01:09:43,048
I should get back to rehearsal.
1107
01:09:51,859 --> 01:09:54,726
- Hi.
- Hey, I'm at the ice rink.
1108
01:09:54,762 --> 01:09:56,795
Someone's already
put in an offer,
1109
01:09:56,830 --> 01:09:58,842
and the real estate broker's
asking us what we want to do.
1110
01:09:58,866 --> 01:10:02,134
Well, what do you think
we should do?
1111
01:10:02,169 --> 01:10:04,002
I want to put in an offer,
1112
01:10:04,038 --> 01:10:06,305
but that seems crazy to me
when you haven't even seen it.
1113
01:10:06,340 --> 01:10:07,773
I mean, what if
you don't like it?
1114
01:10:07,808 --> 01:10:09,641
I trust you.
1115
01:10:09,677 --> 01:10:12,144
Katie, this is a huge decision.
1116
01:10:12,179 --> 01:10:14,947
I can't make it for both of us.
1117
01:10:20,955 --> 01:10:23,322
Well done, very good.
1118
01:10:23,357 --> 01:10:26,258
It's almost time
for our rehearsal.
1119
01:10:26,293 --> 01:10:28,827
Watch your hands.
A bit higher.
1120
01:10:28,862 --> 01:10:31,697
I'm so sorry, Christina.
1121
01:10:31,932 --> 01:10:33,899
But Jessica needs me.
I have to go home.
1122
01:10:33,934 --> 01:10:35,834
What?
1123
01:10:35,869 --> 01:10:38,036
I found a replacement
for the queen role.
1124
01:10:38,071 --> 01:10:39,704
She's a great skater.
1125
01:10:40,841 --> 01:10:42,140
You're leaving?
1126
01:10:44,077 --> 01:10:45,544
I'm so sorry.
1127
01:10:54,121 --> 01:10:55,954
This is for you.
1128
01:11:14,575 --> 01:11:16,341
Ma'am.
1129
01:11:19,646 --> 01:11:21,379
Is that Katie's costume?
1130
01:11:21,415 --> 01:11:24,382
So she's finally going
to practice with Christina?
1131
01:11:24,418 --> 01:11:27,786
I'm sorry.
I thought you knew.
1132
01:11:27,821 --> 01:11:30,722
- I knew what?
- Katie went home.
1133
01:11:50,011 --> 01:11:53,519
- What are you watching?
- A Christmas movie.
1134
01:11:54,483 --> 01:11:57,817
Well, we both know
how that's going to end.
1135
01:12:03,058 --> 01:12:04,991
Any chance you've
changed your mind
1136
01:12:05,026 --> 01:12:07,427
about performing at the pageant?
1137
01:12:07,462 --> 01:12:09,028
No.
1138
01:12:09,064 --> 01:12:10,964
I don't want to play
Princess Sonia.
1139
01:12:10,999 --> 01:12:15,001
Besides, Katie's replacement
doesn't know the part.
1140
01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:21,608
Well, Tina-bear,
1141
01:12:21,643 --> 01:12:25,345
you do know your dear old dad
is quite the skater.
1142
01:12:25,380 --> 01:12:27,413
What if I replaced Katie?
1143
01:12:30,218 --> 01:12:31,184
You?
1144
01:12:31,219 --> 01:12:35,288
- The part's for a queen.
- But it can be for a king.
1145
01:12:35,323 --> 01:12:37,023
It's our Christmas tradition.
1146
01:12:37,058 --> 01:12:40,160
And we may not have a queen,
1147
01:12:40,195 --> 01:12:44,564
but we have a princess,
and we have a king.
1148
01:12:44,599 --> 01:12:46,332
There's nothing
more important for me
1149
01:12:46,368 --> 01:12:48,468
than spending time at Christmas
with you.
1150
01:12:57,045 --> 01:12:58,644
Aunt Patricia,
1151
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:01,180
I was wondering if you could
help me with something.
1152
01:13:01,216 --> 01:13:03,015
Well, of course.
1153
01:13:03,051 --> 01:13:05,952
I've decided I want to cancel
the Christmas Eve dinner.
1154
01:13:05,987 --> 01:13:08,187
Really?
1155
01:13:08,223 --> 01:13:11,491
I think we can start
a new tradition.
1156
01:13:12,180 --> 01:13:15,681
A quiet family Christmas,
just us.
1157
01:13:16,397 --> 01:13:19,031
Sounds lovely, Alex.
1158
01:13:19,067 --> 01:13:21,100
Come on, let's go.
1159
01:13:24,339 --> 01:13:26,472
You heard His Majesty.
1160
01:13:35,050 --> 01:13:37,350
Hey!
1161
01:13:37,385 --> 01:13:39,152
Look what I picked up
this morning.
1162
01:13:39,187 --> 01:13:42,622
We're still in escrow,
but everything looks good,
1163
01:13:42,657 --> 01:13:45,291
and the old owners said
to make this rink our own.
1164
01:13:45,327 --> 01:13:47,193
- So...
- Okay.
1165
01:13:48,396 --> 01:13:49,429
Where are you going?
1166
01:13:54,235 --> 01:13:56,102
What?
1167
01:14:02,277 --> 01:14:04,477
Kind of like a real Christmas.
1168
01:14:15,190 --> 01:14:16,656
Thank you.
1169
01:14:21,429 --> 01:14:25,631
You were so close.
Why did you stop?
1170
01:14:32,707 --> 01:14:34,674
I guess I didn't want
to get hurt.
1171
01:14:34,709 --> 01:14:39,278
I didn't want to get close
and lose someone again.
1172
01:14:39,314 --> 01:14:41,247
It doesn't make sense anyway.
1173
01:14:41,282 --> 01:14:43,683
Alex and I come from
completely different worlds.
1174
01:14:43,718 --> 01:14:45,752
We want different things.
1175
01:14:47,956 --> 01:14:50,690
I was asking about skating.
1176
01:14:53,428 --> 01:14:56,829
But you and Alex want
the same things...
1177
01:14:56,864 --> 01:14:59,331
each other and family.
1178
01:14:59,367 --> 01:15:01,901
And I think the home that you
were hoping you would find here,
1179
01:15:01,936 --> 01:15:03,769
you found in San Senova.
1180
01:15:03,805 --> 01:15:05,838
I know how scared you are
1181
01:15:05,873 --> 01:15:07,273
of putting your heart
into something
1182
01:15:07,308 --> 01:15:09,442
and really wanting it
and not getting it,
1183
01:15:09,477 --> 01:15:11,055
but you didn't get
what you wanted with skating
1184
01:15:11,079 --> 01:15:12,712
not because
you weren't good enough,
1185
01:15:12,747 --> 01:15:15,081
but because you gave up on it.
1186
01:15:15,116 --> 01:15:17,149
You shut down to it.
1187
01:15:19,387 --> 01:15:23,956
You are my best friend, Katie.
You're like a sister to me.
1188
01:15:23,991 --> 01:15:25,958
I don't want to watch you
waste any more time
1189
01:15:25,993 --> 01:15:29,795
wishing that you'd gone after
the thing you really love.
1190
01:15:29,831 --> 01:15:33,933
What was that thing your mom
always said about Christmas?
1191
01:15:33,968 --> 01:15:36,435
It's a time
when we open our hearts.
1192
01:15:36,471 --> 01:15:38,604
Or reopen them.
1193
01:15:38,639 --> 01:15:41,207
Even when we're scared,
even when we've been hurt.
1194
01:15:41,242 --> 01:15:42,374
Especially then.
1195
01:15:45,446 --> 01:15:47,813
Go back to San Senova.
1196
01:15:47,849 --> 01:15:51,217
- I can't.
- I can't leave you. You're family.
1197
01:15:51,252 --> 01:15:53,819
Yeah, but wherever we go,
we'll always have each other.
1198
01:15:53,855 --> 01:15:57,623
- But we just bought an ice rink.
- Yes, we did.
1199
01:15:57,658 --> 01:15:59,959
But I was thinking,
1200
01:15:59,994 --> 01:16:03,462
if you wanted to do
something else,
1201
01:16:03,498 --> 01:16:06,432
then maybe you could be
a silent partner here.
1202
01:16:08,469 --> 01:16:13,739
How are you going to start
and run a business alone?
1203
01:16:13,775 --> 01:16:18,177
Well, actually,
I might have some help.
1204
01:16:18,212 --> 01:16:20,546
And some help has arrived.
1205
01:16:22,717 --> 01:16:24,817
- Hi!
- Hi.
1206
01:16:27,889 --> 01:16:31,090
- It's good to see you.
- Good to see you too.
1207
01:16:31,125 --> 01:16:33,025
Our Jessica leaves
quite the lasting impression.
1208
01:16:33,060 --> 01:16:34,827
That she does.
1209
01:16:34,862 --> 01:16:39,165
And we felt, as crazy as it is,
we had to give it a shot.
1210
01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:40,533
Have an adventure.
1211
01:16:40,568 --> 01:16:44,403
And I feel that running a training
center could be in my wheelhouse.
1212
01:16:44,438 --> 01:16:48,240
After all, I've spent the last decade
overseeing the politics of a nation.
1213
01:16:48,276 --> 01:16:52,411
I believe I'm well-versed
in performance and spectacle.
1214
01:16:53,581 --> 01:16:54,847
From the king.
1215
01:16:56,551 --> 01:16:57,850
Thank you.
1216
01:17:00,721 --> 01:17:02,021
Bye.
1217
01:17:23,978 --> 01:17:25,678
Dear Katie,
1218
01:17:25,713 --> 01:17:28,581
I remember you said
that people who care for you
1219
01:17:28,616 --> 01:17:30,950
give you ornaments at Christmas,
1220
01:17:30,985 --> 01:17:34,587
although I'm sure you will
argue this isn't an ornament.
1221
01:17:34,622 --> 01:17:36,789
It's my Christmas star,
1222
01:17:36,824 --> 01:17:39,491
and I hope it guides you home.
1223
01:17:39,527 --> 01:17:41,327
Love, Alex".
1224
01:17:51,539 --> 01:17:54,306
Five, everybody!
Places in five!
1225
01:17:56,677 --> 01:17:59,778
You look beautiful, Tina-bear.
1226
01:18:01,315 --> 01:18:03,515
Alex, Alex!
1227
01:18:03,551 --> 01:18:05,718
I thought before you went on,
1228
01:18:05,753 --> 01:18:08,954
there's something
you ought to see.
1229
01:18:10,691 --> 01:18:12,958
"San Senova's New Founder's Day.
1230
01:18:12,994 --> 01:18:15,527
Tradition hosted by
the new Christmas King".
1231
01:18:15,563 --> 01:18:17,529
The new Christmas King.
1232
01:18:17,565 --> 01:18:21,333
Now, curtain's almost up,
so you'll give your speech,
1233
01:18:21,369 --> 01:18:24,904
- and then... we'll begin.
- Come on.
1234
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:41,487
I'll see you out there
in a second.
1235
01:18:59,740 --> 01:19:01,907
Merry Christmas Eve,
1236
01:19:01,943 --> 01:19:05,744
and welcome to San Senova's
Founder's Day Pageant,
1237
01:19:05,780 --> 01:19:08,914
which I hope will be
the first of many to come.
1238
01:19:08,950 --> 01:19:12,418
It was always my father's dream
to celebrate our founding
1239
01:19:12,453 --> 01:19:13,986
with a Christmas spectacle.
1240
01:19:14,021 --> 01:19:15,221
- Christina.
- Katie!
1241
01:19:17,692 --> 01:19:20,760
You came back!
1242
01:19:20,795 --> 01:19:23,496
I'm so sorry I left.
Can you forgive me?
1243
01:19:23,531 --> 01:19:27,366
The retelling
of how San Senova came to be.
1244
01:19:29,370 --> 01:19:31,303
Daddy!
1245
01:19:41,716 --> 01:19:44,550
This has been
a very special Christmas,
1246
01:19:44,585 --> 01:19:47,386
perhaps the most special
1247
01:19:47,421 --> 01:19:53,225
because I was shown
the true meaning of the holiday,
1248
01:19:53,261 --> 01:19:57,296
that Christmas is a time
that no matter where we are
1249
01:19:57,331 --> 01:20:00,633
or how we are, we're
brought back to one another,
1250
01:20:00,668 --> 01:20:05,304
that Christmas is a day that
reminds us of our greatest gifts:
1251
01:20:05,339 --> 01:20:07,373
our family,
1252
01:20:07,408 --> 01:20:09,708
our friends,
1253
01:20:09,744 --> 01:20:12,812
our community,
1254
01:20:12,847 --> 01:20:14,780
and our country.
1255
01:20:23,491 --> 01:20:25,024
The people we love.
1256
01:20:28,296 --> 01:20:31,397
That Christmas is a day
that guides us home.
1257
01:20:31,432 --> 01:20:34,099
So from my family to yours,
1258
01:20:34,135 --> 01:20:37,803
I wish you all
a very merry Christmas.
1259
01:20:47,949 --> 01:20:49,281
Cheers.
1260
01:21:02,029 --> 01:21:04,096
The ice is yours.
1261
01:21:22,416 --> 01:21:24,450
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
1262
01:21:37,498 --> 01:21:40,165
I'm very glad
I didn't have to do that.
1263
01:21:56,250 --> 01:22:00,252
- I'm so happy you came back.
- Me too.
1264
01:22:00,287 --> 01:22:03,555
I realized that
I don't want to train anymore.
1265
01:22:03,591 --> 01:22:05,090
I want to skate.
1266
01:22:05,126 --> 01:22:08,093
And I was thinking
San Senova has the tourists,
1267
01:22:08,129 --> 01:22:09,828
you've got a rink,
1268
01:22:09,864 --> 01:22:11,775
we've got the perfect makings
for a permanent show.
1269
01:22:11,799 --> 01:22:13,966
With a role for me, I hope.
1270
01:22:14,001 --> 01:22:16,568
You'd have to audition.
1271
01:22:17,771 --> 01:22:22,608
Katie, it doesn't matter to me if I'm
a king, and you're the prom queen.
1272
01:22:22,643 --> 01:22:28,350
I'm just a man who loves a woman
who he hopes loves him back.
1273
01:22:42,351 --> 01:22:48,350
