Oh, these heels are killing me!

What'd you say?

I said I think
I'm getting a blister.

Oh, hottie, four o'clock.

Oh. Uh, no, no, no,
if I keep going

I'm gonna get a toe amputated.
Just go, go. Dance.

- Are you sure?
- Yes, yes, yes, go.

Okay, wish me luck.

Ow.

- Oh.
- Oh.

Sorry.

- No, you, you take it.
- No, no, you should...

- No, you should take it.
- You should have... it.

How about we split it?

Uh, yeah, okay.

Resolutions.

Um, let's see,

eat less cheese?

But I love cheese.

Aw.

What about you?

Uh, get into law school.

I actually have an interview
at Harvard coming up.

I'm pretty nervous.

I'm sure you'll do great.

Yeah, if I'm lucky.

Actually, I think
I can help you.

How? Are you on the admissions
board?

Do you have a rich uncle
who could donate

a library in my name?

- N-no.
- Oh, well.

With the luck part.

A, a sleigh bell?

How exactly is that gonna
get me in?

They're considered lucky charms

and this one's very special.

- Okay.
- No, not so fast.

There are rules.

What kind of rules?

Rule number one,
no keeping the bell.

This isn't a permanent gift.

Okay.

Rule number two,

once the bell has helped you

and given you luck,
you have to pass it on

to someone who needs the luck
more than you.

And finally, yeah, another
one, rule number three,

you can give the bell to anyone

but you can't pass it back
and forth

between people you know.

You gotta spread
the luck around.

So, ideally, you pass it to
a stranger,

which is why I'm passing
it to you.

Once you're part of the chain,
you gotta keep it going.

Thank you so much.

It's, it's almost midnight.

- Oh!
- Whoa!

Uh, um...

I'll be right,
I'll be right back.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Ten, nine, eight, seven,

six, five, four, three,
two, one.

Happy new year!

- We ready?
- Three, two, one.

Boston Boost, Boston Boost,
92.2.

With the hottest DJ, Jake at 8.

Good morning, Boston.

How you guys feeling out there?

It's a cold one.

Time for some eggs and Jake-on.

It's your boy Jake at 8.

Goodbye Turkey Day,

hello Christmas.

Yes, it is a cold one,

it is a Boston winter.

It's 32 degrees.

Only the strong survive.

Make sure you guys are layering
up out there.

And let's not forget, that means
it is cuffing season.

Find you somebody to keep
you warm this holiday season.

Or at least until the May
flowers come in.

And if you're thinking it,
you're definitely right.

It is contest time.
All right.

I wanna ask you guys something,

what is it about Christmas that
makes you feel so lucky?

Christmas is the luckiest
time of year,

and as we enter
the holiday season,

I wanna hear about your luckiest
holiday ever.

Have you had a brush with
fate during this holiday season?

Now listen, for the next hour,
the lines are gonna be open

and I wanna hear you tell
your story

for a chance to win, here we go,
5,000 big ones.

All right, folks,
the lines are open.

Let me hear those stories
that are gonna make my heart

grow three sizes.

And please, please

make it good.

All right, listeners,
who is feeling lucky?

1-800 Jake at 8.

All right, you're on with
Jake at 8.

Go ahead, caller.

Wait, I, I, I got through?
Uh, um, hi, I'm Andi.

All right, Andi, let's hear
your lucky Christmas story.

Well, um, technically it was
New Years,

seven years ago.
That's a lucky number.

Yeah, I was at this party with
my best friend,

and there was this guy,

and well, we both reached
for the same cupcake.

Sounds like a made
for TV moment.

Let me guess, you guys
are madly in love now?

Not exactly.

But he did give me a lucky
sleigh bell.

- Jake at 8, please hold.

So, did you ever see him again?

Jake at 8, just hold.

Well, I always
hoped I would but never did.

Jake at 8, I will put
you through. Just one second.

But you know, everything
worked out.

Yeah, I, I got into Harvard,
I'm a lawyer,

I'm engaged to a doctor,

and everything went according
to plan.

Uh-huh, and what did
you do with the bell?

...One second.
Oh, I, I gave it

to a woman whose store
I randomly stumbled into

a few days after
my Harvard interview.

She, she was waiting for, um,
a liver transplant.

Okay, hold, hold that
thought, Andi.

My producer's gonna pop a vein
if I don't patch this caller in.

Stay on the line.

- You're on with Jake at 8.

Go ahead, caller,
introduce yourself.

I'm Samantha.
I'm the store owner.

Andi, I've always wanted to
thank you

for the lucky bell.
I can't believe it's really you.

And Samantha, how you doin' now?

Happy to report
I got the transplant

and I am in the best health
I've been in, in years.

Oh, that's so great to hear.
That's amazing.

Well, there you have it, folks.

I don't think anybody's gonna
top that.

Congratulations, Andi,
on your magic sleigh bell win.

Although, it does sound like
you're still pining

for the Ghost of Christmas Past.
That's a long time to pine.

No, no, no. No, no, no,
I'm not pining.

Uh-huh. You keep telling
yourself that.

Our producer is gonna be in
touch about your winnings.

Yeah, but I'm not pining, so.
All right, folks, enough

of that mushy,
sentimental stuff.

Let's get into some
celebrity news.

I'm not pining!
- In the mix.

That's rude.

Oh, but I won!

Yes! I won, I won, I won!

What time is it? Oh, shoot!

Andi!

You are late.

Yes. I, I was just, um...

Winning a radio contest with
stories about a mysterious

lucky sleigh bell.

Oh, I'm well aware.

Everyone in the office
texted me.

It interrupted my
morning Stravinsky.

I'm sorry. I, I just
lost track of time.

Now is not the time to be
losing track of anything, Andi.

Pross and Hubert have been
brought onto an extremely

important patent case

for a medical start up called
MovAgn.

Oh, yes, I read about them.

They're building tech
to help patients

suffering from paralysis
regain movement.

They sound like
an amazing company.

Well, they are.

Except, their initial patent

filing was very shoddy.

They need our help to lock down
their patents

and make sure their competitors
can't still their tech

out from under them.

BioKlept is circling.

If we don't protect their IP,

corporate buyout is all
but inevitable.

I see. I...

I need all hands on deck

to find a legal precedent
so they can stay independent.

I'm on it.

Um, Tom, did you have
a chance to read my proposal?

I saw it. We've been over
this, Andi.

We can't afford to do pro bono
cases.

This firm has too much overhead
as it is.

Go.

Yes.

- Go.
- Oh, yes. Yep, mm-hmm.

Hey, you.

The lines are still going
bananas, Jake.

Listeners loved that sleigh
bell story.

That Andi's a natural.

Hmm. Hey, Livy,
headphones off.

Grab your stuff.
We gotta go.

Listen, I gotta cut out early.

Gotta get Livy to school.

It's a half-day.
But thank you for watching her.

- Not so fast,

I uh, I've been meaning
to talk to you.

Listen, if this is about
the Ryan Seacrest incident,

I promise you, it has been
dealt with.

It's not about
your beef with Seacrest.

- Oh.
- It's about the show.

- All right.
- That merger with Radi-00

is definitely going to happen

and they're gonna bring the axe
down on a lot of shows.

Are you saying
we're getting chopped?

No, nothing is final,
but I think

people might be ready
for something new.

I have not seen better numbers
than today.

- I mean...
- Plus, right? You know,

little switch up might just make
your position

more secure once takeover
happens.

What kind of switch up
are you talkin' about?

New segment,
'k? We call it

"Jingle Bell Luck."

We bring Andi back

and she is your new co-host.
- Oh, geez.

And we help reunite her
with the Ghost of Christmas Past

by you know, retracing all
the places

that that little bell went,
so we can reunite her

with the mystery guy,
just in time for Christmas.

Hmm. Eh.

- Sounds cool.
- Right?

No, wait a sec, you,
you can't be serious, here.

No, her story's got legs
and I don't know,

could be a good way to
refresh the brand.

- Refresh the...

You see, unrequited love stories

is not the Jake at 8 brand.

Yeah, exactly.

And there's only so many
celebrity hot takes

and ruthlessly single anecdotes
audiences could take, Jake.

So, rebrand.

- I mean, unless you want

your slot to go to Seacrest.

'Cause I actually could call
Ryan direct.

I got his number.
- Oh.

Could be like, Ryan,
you want the show?

All right, I see what
you're doing.

You're not giving me much
of a choice, are you?

Ha, ha, ha, no.

I'm a lone wolf, all right?

Jake Emettson does not co-host!

Do I have to go to school?
I'm not feeling well.

Hmm, nice try.
School, now. Let's go.

Oh, man!

Hello?

Andi, Jake Emettson.

Oh, hi. Uh, when you
said a producer

would be in touch about
my winnings,

I wasn't expecting it to be you.

I'm not calling about that.

Okay.

Are you free for lunch?

I know a great place
in the north end.

Um, I'm engaged.

Presumptuous.
It's not a date.

It's business.

Meet me at Nighthawk Restaurant

in an hour.

So, uh, what's up?
Are you being sued

by a disgruntled listener or...

If only it were as simple
as that.

My producer...

Oh, uh, I'll have the, uh,
chilli and a tea, please.

I'm good.

Not staying long.

Look, I am not here
on my own accord.

My producer, Piper,
loved your story

and she wants to make it
a regular segment on my show.

Uh, what?

A Ghost of Christmas Past.

Your great love that never
happened but could have.

Do you want a radio job?
Heh.

Uh, sorry. Uh, I think I just
hallucinated.

Did you just invite me
back on your show?

No, I'm, I'm asking you
to co-host a new segment.

The producer wants to call it,

Jingle Bell Luck.

Okay, here's the thing.
- Um...

The show will help you
track down

the Ghost of Christmas Past.

We'll rebuild the chain.

Find other people that
had the sleigh bell,

and maybe find your guy
by Christmas.

But I'm, I'm engaged.

No, really?

I must have forgotten since
the other eight times

you mentioned that today.

You're funny.

- Uh, thank you.
- Put it on my tab.

Thanks.
Uh, look, I already have a job,

and a have a fiancé.

- Mm-hmm.
- Because I'm engaged, remember?

Mm-hmm, right,
you mentioned that.

Yeah, it just wouldn't be
appropriate.

Right. Uh, can I ask
you a question?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, um,

how long have you and...

Ned.

Okay, how long have
you and Ned been engaged?

Two years.

Long engagement, don't ya think?

No. He's a doctor.

- Hmm.
- He's busy.

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah, and I'm a lawyer,

I'm also busy, so.
- Oh yeah, of course, of course.

Um, here's the thing, doctors
and lawyers get married.

Lots of times, to each other.

Hmm. What are you implying?

Ha, look I am no expert
but I get the impression

from your story that you have
some unfinished business.

Maybe you wanna ring the old
sleigh bell one more time.

Well, no. Um...

Think about it.

Was Jake Emettson as hot in
person as he is on billboards?

Hotter, actually.

- You have to take the offer.

Well, I can't just take
a second job as a,

as a radio host, Franny.

I have enough on my plate
with my actual job.

Why not? It's in the morning.

Just tell the station you have
to be out by a certain time

so you can make it to
the office.

It's Christmas time.
You deserve some fun.

- And what about Ned?
- What about Ned?

Whether you're ready to admit
it or not,

you do have a hanging chad

for the Ghost of Christmas Past.

It's okay to want answers.

Talk to Ned.
He'll understand.

Hey.
Hey.

I made Bolognese.

Oh. Two burst appendices,
a ruptured spleen,

and three inguinal hernias.

It's like everyone in Boston
colluded to bust a gut today.

Oof.

How was your day?

Different. Different.

I, uh, I won a radio contest.

Oh yeah.

- Yeah.
- What kinda contest?

Just um, just holiday stories
about luck.

You know, I never told you
this but the New Years

before Harvard, I met this guy
who gave me a lucky sleigh bell.

Like, an elf?

Thank you. Um, no, not an elf,
just a guy.

Just a guy, yeah.

- Hmm.
- But, but the bell had rules.

Couldn't be kept, you had to
pass it along.

You know. Hmm.

Why have you never
told me about this?

- Uh...
- Oh, shoot, shoot,

shoot, shoot, shoot.
- Oh.

Um... you know,
there's, there's more.

Um, you know Jake Emettson,
the...

- Jake at 8?
- Yeah, exactly.

Um, he wants me to co-host
a new segment with him

where we try to track down
the guy who gave me the bell.

Okay. What? Why?

He... um, he was saying like,

he was trying to explain
it to me.

- Oh.
- Um, so it's just...

Is, is... is this like, um...

like a missed connection
kinda situation?

Yes, but I'm gonna tell them
no because it's silly, so.

No. Hey, no, no.
You should do it.

I mean, are you still curious
about this guy?

K-kinda, yeah.

Should I be worried?

No. No, no, I promise it's...

it's just a way to get
some answers.

Right. Well, then,
you should 100 percent do it.

I mean, get the,
get the answers you need.

Look, Andi...

Uh.

Oh. Shoot, another
ruptured spleen.

Sorry.

Jake, hi, it's Andi.

Um, I'm in but I have some
stipulations.

0

You must be Andi.
I'm Piper.

- Oh, hi. Nice to meet you.
- Hey. First time in a studio?

Yeah. Yeah. Uh, listen,
I spoke to Jake on the phone.

I just wanna make sure that
I'm out by...

8:30? He told me.
Don't worry,

we are front-loading the segment

so you will be out in time
every day.

Okay, great.

And this is where
the magic happens.

Wow.

Yeah. This is you,
just right over here.

- Okay.
- And you don't have to worry

about any of the controls.
All you need to know

is that when that red light
is on, you are on the air.

- All right.
- Okay.

- Great.
- Have fun.

Thanks.

- We ready?
- 30 second warning.

Hi.

Ahem, so, what do, uh,

all those do?
- Don't touch.

- Ah.

Okay. Ahem.

Uh, should I introduce myself?

No, no, no, listen, I got it.

Okay? Just follow my lead.

- Okay. Yeah.
- Okay? I got this.

Okay, ten, nine...

Do I press a button
before I speak or...

Stop. I got this.

- ...Five, four, three.
- I don't know what I'm doing.

Back away from the mic.

- Is, is...
- Back away from the mic.

Ahem.

Station with the best m-m-music.

Boston Boost, Boston Boost 92.2.

With the hottest DJ, Jake at 8.

Good morning, Beantown.

Wake up, wake up, wake up.

It's your boy, Jake at 8.

Uh, listen guys,
we're gonna be doing something

a little bit different
with today's show.

Because it's Christmas
and Christmas is about romance,

you know, we wanna take some
time to review a story

that we thought was
so popular yesterday.

Hmm. Now, unfortunately
for Andi,

she didn't get that
New Year's kiss.

So, here at Boston 92.2,

we're gonna help make that
Christmas wish come true.

I'm sorry, Beantown, I
threw up in my mouth

a little bit when I said that.

That's okay, Jake,

I know you're not used to
romance on this show.

And there is my new co-host.
Go ahead, introduce yourself.

Hello, I'm Andi. Ahem.

Well, uh, so we're gonna have
a new segment called,

Jingle Bell Luck.

And on this segment,
we're gonna help this

lovesick lady, heh,
find her way back

under the mistletoe
before Christmas.

I'm not lovesick.
I'm just curious.

- Oh, is that so?
- Yeah.

So, what would happen
if the Ghost of Christmas Past

were to walk in here right
this second and say,

"Andi, I've been thinking
about you for all these years.

Run away with me."

What would you say?

Uh-oh, trouble in paradise.
Watch out, fiancé.

Just because you don't have
the emotional capacity

to understand real love
doesn't mean that...

Oh, now, no, no wait a minute.
Everybody in Beantown knows

that Jake at 8 understands love.
Am I right, Beantown?

You roast people's dating app
profiles for fun on this show.

- I'm helping them.
- Really?

Do, do you know how many
shirtless gym selfies

are running amok online without
my guidance?

Oh yeah, you're really saving
the world,

one profile at a time.

- Commercial.

All right, folks, we're gonna
take a quick break.

Don't go anywhere.

Seriously?
I invite you on my show

and you criticise it?

Listen, Profile Takedown

is one of my best segments.

You know, you criticised
me first.

I'm not lovesick!

Okay, hey there, guys.

I'm just lovin' the back
and forth here.

Can't get enough.
But how about we try one

where we're not tearing each
other's throats out

on the first show. Yeah?

Why don't we just stick
to that bell.

- Yeah.
- And don't pop your P's,

and watch your S's.

Okay, yes, I'll get right
on that.

I have no idea what that means.
What does that mean?

You're new.
It just means don't pop...

...Okay, just bring a random
person off the streets.

- Random person?

And make 'em a radio
host. Fantastic.

I'm so sorry, you're not random,

you're Andi, and we all know
that. You're being...

Should I work on my resume
now, or, or after the show?

How do you deal with him?

It's very difficult
and I have a hard life.

- I heard that, Pipe.
- Okay, five, four, three...

And we're back with Jake
at 8 and Lovesick Andi.

- I'm not.

Uh, Andi, why don't you

tell the listeners why...

why you wanna find the Ghost
of Christmas Past?

Um, ahem, I, I, I think that...

most people have trouble
with stories

that don't have an ending,
myself included,

and um...

well, it was a turning
point for me

and I wanna know
what happened to him.

Boo-hoo.

It sounds like we've
got a caller on line one.

Caller, go ahead, you're on
with Jake at 8.

What do you got for me?

Okay, so?

She's gonna be the death
of my show, isn't she?

Would you relax?
We just got our first lead.

I mean, I'd hardly qualify
a firefighter

who got the sleigh bell
on a yoga retreat in Costa Rica,

two years after Andi had it,
as a lead.

Well, it's something.
It's means the rest of the chain

is still out there.
- Please, can we just forget

this Jingle Bell Luck thing?

No. People are excited
about this.

Andi just needs to get
comfortable.

It takes time. Remember your
first time on the air?

- Yes, exactly, you were like,

my throat.

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, wait a minute.

I choke on one peanut,
one time on air

and you won't let me forget it.

This feels like punishment.
Are you punishing me?

Okay, will you just trust me?

This is gonna be great.
I just know it.

I don't know.

Nothin' but net.

Whatever.

Did, uh, my ears deceive me

or were you on the radio again
this morning?

I... I was. I have
a guest spot now.

- Andi!
- I know. I know.

I, I promise, I won't let
it interfere with the case.

And the segment is over
on Christmas.

And I will be here
and fully focused.

Well, you'd better be.

MovAgn needs our help,
and quickly.

They want this handled
before the holiday break. Hmm?

- I'm on it.
- Okay.

Yes. Yep, yep.

- Ha.

Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite.

It's a masterpiece!
It's so soothing!

Good.

That's my dad. See ya.

Hey, Livy. How was school?

Fine. Jingle Bell Luck
was great.

Andi got you good.

No, she didn't.

And she's just a temporary
guest.

You mean co-host?

- It's still my show.

Breathe, Dad. No one said
it wasn't.

Remember last soccer season

when I wasn't passing
the ball as much?

Mm-hmm. I remember your ball
hog era very well.

Remember what you told me?

Yeah.

A good team is about
more than just one player.

Now you're part of a team, Dad.

Hmm.

Piper's idea.

It's a timeline to help us
organise all the tips we'll get.

Why do I suddenly feel like

we've bitten off more than
we can chew?

Hmm.

What's that?

The Christmas equivalent
to an olive branch.

What? I'm serious.

Look, I just wanna make
good radio.

And we can't do that if we're
arguing all the time.

We have to be a team.

Agreed. Maybe it'll help

if we get to know each
other better.

Like, who are you?

Do you listen to my show?
You know who I am.

No, I mean, who are you really?

What do you mean?

I mean, your radio personality's

not your real personality.

Right?

What's that supposed to mean?

Oh, come on! No one
is that enrobed in sarcasm

and humour defence mechanisms.

There must be more to you
than Jake at 8.

You know, if you don't make
it as a lawyer,

you can make a killing as
a psychotherapist.

See that, that is
what I'm talking about.

That is what brings
the audience in.

I admit, I am being a bit
of a guard dog with the show.

But there's a lot at stake
for me.

But I'll do a better job
of being a good team player.

Thank you.

And I'm sorry for giving you
a hard time.

Ten second warning.

Ahem.

Shall we?

Five, four, three...

The station with the best
m-m-music.

Boston Boost, Boston Boost,
92.2.

With the hottest DJ, Jake at 8.

Good morning, Boston.
It's time for Jake at 8.

I'm your host, Jake Emettson,
along with...

Lucky Andi.

Lucky Andi. I like it.

I figured I needed a moniker.

Huh.

Well, listen up, folks,

Lucky Andi and I are looking
at a timeline

that is very long
and very empty.

And I'm pretty sure that
this sleigh bell

has been to way more places
than Santa's sleigh.

Boston, we need your help.

- We definitely do.

Oh, look at that,
we've got our first caller.

Caller, go ahead, you're on
with Jake at 8 and Lucky Andi.

What's goin' on, Beantown,

it's your boy Jake at 8

and I'm here with...

And oops, Lucky Andi.

She's still, she's still
learning the ropes, folks.

Listen, Beantown,

we're still looking for those
stories, right, Andi?

Yeah, keep those stories coming.

You won the lottery after
losing your job? Huh.

Montana, that's crazy.

Do you know who your brother
gave the bell to?

That bell got my family
through Christmas.

Your mom was on a waiting
list for four years?

Well, we love to hear you,
Beantown.

- Look out!

Keep it comin', keep it comin'.

Wow, ordering that latte
really changed your life.

We've had some really good
stories so far.

Let's see who else we got
on the line.

Two towns over
and the dog was fine?

That's amazing.

All right, that's all we got
time for today, folks.

It's Jake at 8.

And Lucky Andi.

- Signing off.
- Signing off.

Hey, Ned.

Hey, I was just about
to call you.

Can we raincheck dinner tonight?

I've got this patient here
who swallowed a pencil.

Uh, yeah. No, I was just
calling to raincheck as well.

I have to go to a holiday party
for the station.

Sounds fun. How about we go
ice skating this weekend

and make up for it? We keep
saying we're gonna do that.

Yeah, that would be great.

Um, good luck extracting
the pencil.

So, we're really excited about
all the new changes

we're making at the station.

Jake's been doing an absolutely
incredible job.

But what we were thinking
is maybe the...

there you are. Jim, Adam, Bobbi,
this is Andi.

She is the newest addition
to our morning talk radio team.

Hi. Nice to meet you all.

We were just talking about
the show.

You know, they're very
avid listeners.

Oh. Oh, that's great to hear.
Thanks for tuning in.

Yeah, we're just trying to
revive an old connection,

you know. Right?

Yes. Mm-hmm. Yep.

Yep. Uh, did you all hear
the latest episode

where the sleigh bell helped
that man alert search and rescue

during the blizzard?

Isn't that unbelievable?
Can you imagine?

During a blizzard. My goodness.

What's with you?

Can I talk to you for a second?

- Mm-hm.
- Uh, excuse us.

Yeah. They can't get enough
of each other.

Those are the three execs
that wanna cut the show.

Oh. I, I had no idea.

No, it's okay. Forgive me
if I'm not very festive.

So, I gotta know,
why is a happily engaged woman

trying to track down a guy
she only met once?

Well, Ned is great.

Like, he's the best,
he's brilliant.

He's, he's always rushing to go
save a life.

So, why aren't you racing
down the aisle to marry him?

Well, lately, we've been, uh...

Stuck in a rut?

Yeah, kinda yeah.

Look, I, I know this is
my own stuff to figure out

but I put the Ghost of Christmas
Past on a pedestal

and maybe I just need to be more
realistic about it.

So, you're trying to knock him
off the pedestal by doing this?

Maybe. Maybe I just need
to meet him

to see that he has flaws.

Like, maybe he's rude,

or shallow, or maybe he has bad
taste in music.

Maybe if I could just meet him,

I could see that the perfection

I built up in my head
isn't real.

Hmm.

What? What's hmm? What?

When you know, you know, right?

Or at least you need
to acknowledge that

you kind of already know.

How would you know?

I thought you didn't buy into
all the love stuff?

I never said that.

Have you ever known?

Yeah.

I have.

Sorry, I, I didn't mean to pry.

Suffice it to say,
the saying is true.

Um, I should get going.

Wait, I just, I wanted to run
something by you

for the show. Um...

Could we do it another day?

I, I really gotta get going.

- Yeah, sure, please.
- All right. Let's.

Okay.

Hi. Wait, let me guess,

your patient got mauled
by a tiger.

Nope, skiing accident.

Oh. Um...

Would you hate me
if we rescheduled?

Yeah, no. No, no, no,
it's... it's totally fine.

Uh, g-good, good luck
with the skiing accident.

Okay? I'll see you later.
- Sorry.

Bye.

Huh...

Hello?

Hey, about the other night,

what did you wanna talk about?

Uh... do you like ice skating?

All right, you just gotta
loosen up, all right?

Don't be afraid to fall.

No, no, it's not the falling
I fear,

it's the weeks in the cast
that would follow.

Don't be dramatic.

Okay, I got you,
I'm here to help.

- Oh, look.
- Oh, look it, I'm skating.

- There you go.
- I'm skating, this is skating.

Lucky Andi, you're skating.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- I got you. I got you.

- Okay.
- You're good.

- Um...
- You okay?

Can we hold hands?

It was easier that way.

All right, no problem.
There you go.

- Okay.
- Nice and easy.

Woo!

Oh, geez.

You know, uh, I was thinking,
when I was a listener,

my favourite segments were
the contests.

It was something about
competitive edge

it brought to your show that
really kept me engaged.

Yeah. I do miss the contests.

Yeah. Well, what if we brought
them back

but with a revamp
for the sleigh bell?

All right. Yeah.

Yeah? Like, right now we're
only asking

for personal stories, people who
have had the bell themselves.

- Right.
- So, if you weren't personally

impacted by the bell,
then you're just a listener.

You can't ever participate.

So, what if we incentivise
people

who don't have direct experience

to go sniff out sleigh
bell stories?

That's good.

- Yeah?
- That's really good.

And that way we have more people

out there looking for leads.

Yeah, exactly.

We can cast a much wider net.

We can all it um,
Sleigh Bell Searchers.

- I like it.
- Yeah?

Yeah, I like that.

- What do you say

we get back on the ice?

- Okay.
- Come on. Come on.

- Eek.
- Let's do it.

I got you, don't worry.
- Okay, okay.

- Here we go.
- Ah!

- You good?
- Yeah, I think so.

Ooh!
- Oh!

- I got you.

I do music and yoga, okay?
Skating is not my forte.

- Music?
- Yeah.

That's interesting.

Yeah, I've been playing piano

since, since I was a kid. Stop!

What do you say
we get off the ice?

- Yes!
- Yeah?

- Mm-hmm, I'm good.
- Let's get outta here.

- Okay. Are you good?
- Yeah, I'm good.

Yeah? Alex Ovechkin?

Ha, ha.

Oh. Ooh!

So, piano?

Yeah. My mom is a singer, actually.

- Oh.
- Yeah, she's on tour right now.

Makes it kinda tough to see each
other during the holidays.

That must be hard.

Uh, sometimes.

But you know, she always
said that we could fill the gaps

by doing good.

Like, Christmas was always about
giving growing up.

You know, um...

lately, I feel like
I haven't been doing

my fair share of good.

Hmm.

Why do you say that?

Well um, I, I've been trying
to get my firm

to take on more pro bono cases,

and it's just so tough in a
corporate setting

to get people to think about
anything other than

the bottom line.

I went into law because...

well, I just, I wanted
to help people.

Well, this show is helping
people.

It's not like you're not giving
back at all this holiday season.

Yeah. Uh...

maybe you're right.

Livy, you're gonna be late.

Livy!

Why aren't you dressed?

If it's not the plague, or
something equally catastrophic,

you need to be dressed.

It's a snow day!

- Geez, okay.

I'll call Aunt Margaret.
See if she could watch you.

Hold on a sec.

Hey. I'm running a little bit
late today.

School's cancelled.

A pipe burst? Where? When?

All right, don't worry about
it. I'll be fine.

I'll just broadcast
from the home studio today.

Okay, thanks.

All right, looks like I have
to do the show from home today.

Pipe burst and flooded
the studio.

Which means you have to stay
in your room

and be quiet while I'm on air.

No piano 'til after the show.

Is Andi coming over?

We haven't had a lady in
the house before.

Yes, we have. Come on.

Aunt Margaret doesn't count.

Come on, let's go. Back
to your room.

Now, please.

And no coming up.

Who, me?

Ahem.

Oh.

Oh.

- Hey, you made it.
- Hey. Yeah.

- Come in. Let me get your coat.
- Oh, thanks.

Wow, your place is amazing.

Thanks. It is a bit messy.

Uh... is, is that your uh...

Daughter, Livy.

I didn't know you had kids.

Yeah, just the one.

Uh, studio's upstairs.

- Yeah.
- Shall we?

- Mm-hmm.
- All right.

Five, four, three, two...

The station with the best
m-m-music,

Boston Boost, Boston Boost 92.2.

With the hottest DJ, Jake at 8.

Monday morning,
it's snowing outside.

Schools are closed.
Welcome to Jake at 8.

I'm Jake along with...

Lucky Andi. And we have
a huge announcement.

Yeah, it's a big one.
Make sure you're listening.

And it's all Andi's idea,
by the way.

Contests are back.

If you've been tuning in
to Jingle Bell Luck

and want to participate,

well we have a way for you
to do that.

We're looking for listeners

to be in our sleigh bell
search party.

Bring us a good tip
and we'll check something off

your Christmas wish list.

Listen, guys, get out there
and find those

sleigh bell stories.

And if you think you got
a story,

please give us a call.
The lines are open.

- Oh, looks like we've got

our first caller.
Go ahead,

you're on with Jake at 8.
Introduce yourself.

My name's Veronica.

I actually know someone who
had the sleigh bell

about six months before Andi.

Oh, wow, that's really close.

Yeah, a friend of mine
named Greta.

She moved to Australia
a few years ago.

Otherwise, I'm sure she would
have called in herself.

Andi, what you're doing, looking
for love, it's so romantic.

I hope you find the Ghost
of Christmas Past.

Thank you, Veronica.
We really appreciate that tip.

You know, Andi, before we do
anything else,

I gotta say, you've come a long
way since our first episode.

Do you remember your intro?
"Hello, I'm Andi."

No, I don't remember
that actually. Did that happen?

I think I have a playback.
Hold on a second.

- I think we're good.
- No?

- I, I think we're good.
- We're good? Okay.

- Yeah, yeah.
- Let's keep it cool.

Let's keep it cool.
All right, folks...

Uh, we are going to take
a quick commercial break.

We'll be right back, folks.

- Livy.

- Nope, wasn't me.
- Come up here.

- Hi, I'm Livy.
- Hi, I'm Andi.

All right, all right.

You are supposed to be
in your room.

- Can't I just sit and watch?
- No, here's the thing...

Hey, I don't mind if she does.

Okay, just make sure
you're quiet, okay?

Or you're getting coal
in your stocking.

All right, five seconds.

Five, four three, two...

Welcome back to Jake at 8.

We're still trying to find
some clues

to help us get that lucky
sleigh bell.

Hey, that's the closest
we've gotten.

Might just find your ghost.

I mean, with only a week and
a half left until the big day.

Uh, yeah.
No, it's, it's amazing.

It's, it's the low G
that comes after C.

- Do you play?
- Mm-hmm.

Do you give lessons?

No, wait a minute there, Livy.

Andi has a job she has
to get to.

Actually, my boss is snowed in

so I can stay a little longer.

Okay, show me again.

Do you think you could give me
a few more lessons

before the Christmas talent
show at school?

- Sure
- That's enough for today, Livy.

You've got assignments
to finish.

- Do I have to?
- Mm-hmm.

Two more days until
the Christmas break.

Now, scoot.
- Nice to meet you, Andi.

Nice to meet you too.

She's, she's great.

Yeah. She's pretty amazing.

Why didn't you tell
me you were a dad?

Honestly, it's easier to be
Jake at 8

than a widower with a preteen.

Uh, I'm sorry about your wife.
I... um, when did she...

Six years ago. Car accident.

Oh.

This time of year
is especially tough

because my wife loved
the holidays.

She played this piano all
the time.

And we would get
together and sing and...

that was my favourite part
of Christmas.

You know, my, my mom
and I would do the same.

And yeah, it was my favourite
part of Christmas, too.

You know, it's really nice
to hear Livy sing again.

Appreciate that.

Of course.

Do you play?

- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

Um, I never thought you'd ask.

- Oh, okay.
- Prepare to be dazzled.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

Okay. Um, wow, it's no,
it's really good.

You're amazing.
Do you practice this?

Oh yeah, all the time.

Just a little something
that I'm working on.

- Oh yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

- What do you call it?
- Um, Chow Mein.

Andi?

Uh, Tom? Is this...

Sonata for Two Pianos
in D Major.

Yes. It is.

But the last time you listened
to this,

you fired Carol in accounting.

Am I being fired?

No, Andi. Now, I play this
piece now

because it went through a crisis
of ownership.

This music is attributed
to Amadeus Mozart

but many scholars believe
it was actually written by

a contemporary of his.

So, why do you think
I feel called

to listen to this particular
piece today?

Um, because the new
accounting hire

isn't actually as good
as Carol was? I don't know.

- No.
- No.

Although, that is an issue.

Yeah.

It's because even today,
we are still arguing

about who this was written by.
Who it belongs to.

History is long and winding,

and it steals what people
do not protect.

You're the best IP lawyer
on my team

and I don't want MovAgn

and their incredible inventions
to be a victim of history.

You follow me?
- A hundred percent,

I will not let that happen.

The MovAgn team will be in
Boston next week. Be sharp.

For sure. Will do.

They're coming Friday morning.
Early.

This radio show of yours
won't be a problem, will it?

No, no, it won't
be a problem. Mm-mm.

Good. Go.

Actually, I'll join you.
Daniel bought donuts.

If they haven't left me a Boston
cream, there will be blood.

I still can't believe Jake
at 8 is a suburban dad.

Yeah. Um, thanks for agreeing
to come today.

Oh, it's been ages since
I gave a vocal lesson.

Well, Livy is great.

And Jake is so good with her.

Yeah, they make such an amazing
father-daughter duo.

Have you thought about what
you'll say

when you find the Ghost
of Christmas Past?

No.

Christmas is only a week away.

Yeah, I haven't really
thought about it.

What about Ned?

What happens with him once
you find the ghost

and the radio show ends?

Well, we just, we go back
to real life

and set a date.

Is that what you want?

Yeah. Mm-hmm.

I, I think so.

Look, I don't know.

You know, Ned and I have
barely seen each other.

And my boss is playing
funeral dirges

and staring forlornly
out windows.

And the only place I feel like
I'm actually doing a good job

is the radio station.

So, I have no idea what
I'm doing with my life anymore.

Andi, you've been my bestie
since we were kids.

The radio thing seems
like something

you're having fun doing.

It's okay to just let go
and enjoy.

Hmm.

Good, now open up
those vowels a bit more.

- Too open.

Come on Dad, sing with us.

Oh, no. No, no, no, just
'cause I'm on the radio

does not mean that I'm musical.

Oh, come on.

Hmm, no.

Ha, ha. Okay, can she do it?
Four more seconds left.

Can she successfully wrap this
present while blindfolded?

- Almost there.
- Folks, it's intense in here

right now.
Here we go.

I'm almost there.
Almost there.

Oh, can she do it?
Almost there. Oh!

Uh, it's a disaster.

Yeah. You might not have many
career prospects

at the North Pole.

All right, folks, that's
all the time we have for today.

What a great show.

Thank you for the wonderful
stories.

And I'll be honest,

I never thought I would
say this but, uh,

this little bell has really
shown me

how amazing people can be.

Yeah, me too. And, uh,

it really says a lot about love
too, doesn't it?

How so?

Well, love should feel like,

like Christmas.

Like um, magic.
I get that now.

And, and sometimes lucky charms
come in the form of a person.

Someone new who enters your life

and makes you re-evaluate
your perspective.

And you can plan and replan

but there's always that
element of luck.

And you can't account
for how big and unpredictable

the world is.
And just...

who you might cross paths with.

Well, we've um, run over
time again.

That's all we have for today.

I'm Jake at 8 with...

Um, Lucky Andi.

Signing off.

The station with the best
m-m-music,

Boston Boost, Boston Boost,
92.2.

With the hottest DJ, Jake at 8.

Geez.

It's not that bad.

Great show today.

Hey, listen, thank you for
all your help with Livy.

And tell Fran I said
thanks, too.

Yeah, of course. I will.

Ahem. Oh, you are
dangerously late.

- Oh, am I?
- Mm-hmm.

Uh, yes, I am. Okay.

I'll see you later.

All right, I'll see you.

Um...

Boston Boost, 92.2.

Yeah, no, we've wrapped
the show already.

Oh, really?
And you're positive it's you?

Huh. Yeah well, that timeline
checks out.

Wow. I never thought
we'd find you.

This is, this is crazy.

Um, let me, let me get
your info, man. Um, yeah.

Mm-hmm. Okay.

Listen, I will be in touch

when we figure out how we wanna
proceed with this.

All right.

Yo. You okay?

You look like you've seen
a ghost.

Uh... actually,
I just spoke with one.

What?

Ghost of Christmas Past.

He just called.
His name's Bobby.

What?! We found him?

- Yeah.
- Wait, does Andi know?

No.

Okay, wait a minute.
I know that face.

What are you plotting?

Radi-00, the CEO is a bit
of a scrooge,

and apparently he wants to add
more edge into the show.

No, that's impossible.

The show has never been
more popular.

Well, I actually kinda thought
you'd be happy.

This'll be your chance to be
a lone wolf again.

What do you mean?

Okay, how about we bring back

some of the old Jake at 8
persona, huh?

We could surprise Andi
with the Ghost of Christmas Past

live on air, you know?

Ambush her with the reveal.

You can resurrect your old,
ruthless self.

It's good, right?

- I don't know. I, I don't know.

I mean, this is a big deal
for Andi, you know?

Don't you think we should,
uh, prepare for it?

Well, I wanna do whatever
it takes to keep our show alive.

So, if the CEO wants ruthless,
we have to give it to him.

But...

But there's gotta be
another way to,

to do this, don't ya think?

I don't know. But if you think
of one, you let me know.

I see that that's a very
attractive offer,

but I wanna remind you
that if BioKlept

is the owner of this technology,

they will price it out
of the market.

Out of the market for
the average consumer.

I forgot they were coming today.

Andi, my office. Now.

Was I somehow not clear

that the MovAgn team would be
here today?

You're right.
I, I lost track of time.

Um, we had a lot of callers.

I don't wanna hear
about your radio show.

I have a tech company that
is facing extinction.

All of those employees,
their families,

they're depending on us to come
through for them.

You're right.
I'm so sorry. Uh...

I don't need an apology.

You want to apologise?

Do it to the millions
of patients

who will not have affordable
access to this technology,

because Andi, it will be
branded and it will be sold only

to the wealthiest of patients,
at an insane markup.

Look, you... you are right.

I have been distracted
and neglectful,

and it's unacceptable.

I have tried to be understanding

of this radio thing.

But I'm sorry, Andi,

if you wanna continue
working here,

you're gonna have
to make a choice.

It's either this
or the radio show.

Because you clearly
cannot do both.

Go.

So, what are you gonna do?

I'm gonna have to leave
the show.

Law's my life. Jake is gonna
be so let down.

I thought you said
he never wanted a co-host?

Well, he didn't, but
the show is successful now.

Yeah. And now you'll
never find jingle bell guy.

Yeah. But it's, it's back
to real life, I guess.

Hmm.

And maybe it'll, it'll free up

some time and we'll be able
to plan the wedding.

Right. Well, you know,

whatever you choose,
I support you.

You're happy, I'm happy.

Yeah.

Um, I better get going.

- Sure.
- Okay.

Excuse me, do you know
where I can find Andi Kelton?

Hey. You're looking for Andi?

Uh yeah. I'm her fiancé.
She forgot her purse.

I was just dropping it off.

Oh, Ned in the flesh.
How ya doin', man?

- You're Jake?
- At 8.

Wow, you look just like
your poster.

You know, I thought
that was Photoshopped.

Ah, geez. Listen, man,
congrats on Andi.

She's the best.

Yeah. Yeah, she is.

And I know she feels really bad
about having to leave the show.

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah, it's her boss.

He's old school, you know,
and she's worked so hard

to establish this career.

She's gotta focus on
that right now.

Right. Heh.

Anyway, uh, thanks for this.

And have a great last
show today.

Thanks.

Jake, this has become untenable.

No. Okay. Um.

Jake, uh, I...

this has to be my last day b...

Come on, Andi.

Hey uh... oh. Where did
you find this?

I thought I left
it at work the other day.

Ned dropped it off.

Oh.

I um...

look... Jake, um,

there's something I have
to tell you.

Today's your last day?

Yeah. How did you...

Ned.

Oh. Look, I um...

So, that's it.

You're quitting.

Well, no. I have another
job, Jake.

Oh, the job where you
don't feel like

you're giving back?

No. No, the job I worked
my butt off

in law school to get.
- Oh.

The job I'm good at.

Oh. I know you're good
at it, Andi.

You're good at anything
that you put effort into.

But seriously, are you happy?

What?

Oh, but that doesn't matter, right?

I mean, what happened to
all that stuff about

you know, pro bono
and giving back?

Are you truly being honest with
yourself right now?

You're one to talk, Jake.

What, you go through life
wearing a mask,

hiding everything
about yourself.

You built a whole career
pretending to be Jake at 8,

the single who doesn't care
about anyone or anything guy.

Oh, well, I'll take that
over a woman

who is so incapable
of making up her mind

that she would rather track down
a literal stranger

from nearly a decade ago,
a decade,

than to pick out a wedding venue
with her actual fiancé.

Oh, wow.

Yeah, wow.

- Have a good show.
- Oh, I will.

Good.

Where is she going?

I don't
know. I'm hosting alone.

And forget what I said.

We'll find a way to implement
your plan

for the Ghost
of Christmas Past reveal.

If they want the old Jake back,
let's give it to 'em.

Okay.

I didn't even need the sheet
music

because of what Andi taught me.

- You were great.

I'm proud of you.

We should make lasagna tonight.

Maybe invite Andi over?

I don't think
that's a good idea.

I figured something was off
when she wasn't on the radio.

- Yeah.

Went back to her regular job.

Why?

Because she wanted to.

I like Andi.
And you like her, too.

If you guys like each other then
why can't you just be honest?

Some people aren't
who they seem, Liv.

Obviously.

What's that supposed to mean?

You're not at all like
you pretend to be on the radio.

I know you're sad about
Mom but it made me happy

to see you and Andi at the piano
singing Christmas music.

That version of you is way
better than the one

that makes listeners describe
their worst dates.

Hey, why don't you um,

why don't you go play your song
for me?

I want an encore.

All right, folks,
it's contest time.

I wanna hear your stories about
being humiliated. Go.

All right, thank you, Kevin,
for that riveting story

about how you almost burnt
your house down.

And another reminder folks, Andi

is not here today.

Okay, you're on with Jake at 8.

This is Evan. Where is Andi?
Is she ever coming back?

Okay, okay. Remember,
it's contest time.

Stories about being embarrassed,
all right?

Sans magic sleigh bell, please.

All right, guess we don't have
any more callers.

That's it for today, Beantown.

Thanks for tuning in.
This is Jake at 8 signing off.

Um, so we could,
we could have the ceremony here.

Mm-hmm.

And um, we could have
the reception over there,

like in the spring,
when it's warmer.

Yeah.

Yeah. Um, do you,
do you like it or...

Uh, yeah. No, yeah,
it's uh, it's fine.

You're not giving me
much to work with, Ned.

Yeah, well you know, I'm good
with internal organs,

and not so much with flower
arrangements and gazebos.

Yep. Uh, could, could you at
least look through these?

I spent like, four hours
on the internet last night

looking up inspirational photos.

Why is everything teal?

Well, because you're obsessed
and you love teal.

Like, you know.
- What makes you think that?

'Cause you're always in teal.
I don't know.

Those are scrubs, Andi.

Teal is hospital colours.

Why would anyone in their right
mind want surgery colours

on their wedding day?

You're not helping, Ned!

I'm planning this whole thing
by myself.

I feel, I, I just, we've been
avoiding this for too long.

You're right.

You're right. I'm sorry.

What are we doing, Ned?

Okay, confession.

I was listening to your show.

And I heard you talk about love
feeling like Christmas

and people being lucky charms
and all that.

And I just knew that you weren't
talking about us.

I... I think that you are
the best.

But I just, I think I need more.

I know. I know.

And I think part of me just was
hoping that you were gonna find

this Ghost of Christmas Past guy
and then I wouldn't have to be

the one to say it.
'Cause I don't wanna hurt you

and I really do just want
you to be happy. But...

my heart hasn't been in this
for a while.

And I don't think yours
has either.

Someone, um, like recently
just told me, uh,

when you, when you know,
you know.

Mm-hmm.

Ned, I, I just wanna know.

Yeah, me too.

Well, I hope you find it.

'Cause you, you really
deserve it.

Yeah. You too.

Hey, I hope, um, if, if
my spleen ever bursts that...

...that you're my doctor.

Yeah. Yeah, I think we can
arrange that.

Yeah? You think so?

- Oh. Oh, speaking of spleens.

Wow.

Have a good shift.
And um...

merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Pack it up, Andi.

MovAgn is signing the deal
in the morning.

Tomorrow's Christmas Eve.
Just take the holidays off.

Just a couple more hours.

They won't be billable.

Good. I wanna
do this pro bono.

Oh, come on. There has
to be something.

Oh! Oh.

Polio. Polio!

Yes! That's it! It's...

Polio!

Andi.

Did you sleep here?

- Polio.
- What? What are you on about?

It's Christmas Eve.
You shouldn't even be here.

You're here too.

My house is full of family.

I pretended I forgot a file.

Polio. Tom, that,
that is our precedent.

Excuse me?

Oh, we've been thinking about
this all wrong.

There is no polio anymore, right?

- I should hope not.
- And why is that?

- Vaccines.
- Exactly.

Jonas Salk didn't patent it.

That way everyone would be able
to have access to it

and they could eradicate
the disease quickly.

Are you suggesting we don't
patent MovAgn's technology?

No. No, I'm suggesting
that we beat BioKlept

at their own game.

Look, I, I found a carve-out,

a way to expedite the patent,

if we can prove that MovAgn
is for the public good.

How do we prove that a private
company's invention

is for the public good?

We draw up a charter
that promises to make

the license available and cheap.

We go the polio route,
instead of BioKlept.

We offer up the tech to anyone
willing to spend a small fee,

under the condition that
they stick to price caps.

If BioKlept wants to corner
the market,

we beat them by saturating it.

That's not bad.
I'll run it by them.

You might wanna...

Yes, of course. Yeah.

Hey, Piper.
What do you got for me?

Well, Ghost of Christmas Past
is available today,

not tomorrow,
because it's Christmas.

And, uh, the CEO of Radi-00 is
still upset about the show, so.

Seriously?

Yeah, well he wanted
your ruthless side back

but now he feels like we're
leaving the audience hanging

by not giving Andi's
story a conclusion.

What a mercurial overlord.

How do we get her in here?
- Oh, I'll handle it.

All right. Bombs away.

You did it. They rejected
the sale.

They're going with your public
good expedited patent plan.

Really? Oh, that,
that's great.

Um, I, I'll file everything
right now.

No, no, no, no. Go home.
Enjoy the holidays.

Get some actual sleep.
I got this.

Uh, T-Tom, look, I've been
thinking about

what I want and um...
well I just...

I think I know
where this is going.

You do?

Pro bono? I read your report.

I know you want us to take
on more cases

that serve the larger good,
and I guess after today,

I understand why.

Which is why I told MovAgn

that we're not charging them
a single fee.

Really?

I guess your insidious
Christmas charitable will

has rubbed off on me.

Do you think that we'll be
able to take on more pro bono

cases in the future?

I'll do you one better.

Anytime you have a case

that you think it's important
to do pro bono,

you have carte blanche.
It'll be your call.

Wow, thank you. Really?

- No.
- Oh, yes.

This is a law firm.
We have to make money.

- Right.
- Run any of the pro bono cases

by me first.
- Of course.

But I do promise
I won't always say no.

Okay. Thank you, Tom.

Merry Christmas, Andi.

Merry Christmas.

You're a heck of a lawyer.

Hmm.

Hi, Piper.

Andi, any chance you could
swing by the studio

this morning? Just, uh,
a few loose ends to go over.

Uh, yeah. Yeah, I can, um,
swing by right now.

Great.

Andi, thank you so
much for coming in.

Oh, what, what did
you wanna go over?

Oh, it's just, it's just
in the studio. Follow me.

Folks, we have a special guest
in the studio today.

You are not gonna believe
how we got this thing together

but we're glad he's...

Oh, there she is.

Folks, let's welcome back Andi
to the show.

Andi, come on in here.

I wanna introduce you to Bobby,

or as you like to call him,
the Ghost of Christmas Past.

What?

Hi, Andi. I'm Bobby.

Hi.

Andi, why don't you have
a seat? Let's catch up.

Uh...

Sorry, I wasn't um...

Oh, um, I wasn't expecting this.

Oh, that's all right.
We thought it would be a nice

Christmas Eve surprise.

Oh, did you?

So, this is crazy, right?

- Huh, yeah.
- Um, sorry.

Uh, you must be really
overwhelmed.

No, um, my friend recommended
your program.

And at first I thought,
wow, what a coincidence.

And after a few episodes,

I realised you were
looking for me.

Yeah. Mm-hmm.

My wife and I love the show.

Oh. Um, that's...

no, that's, that's great.

Uh, look, I, I just, I wanted
to find you and,

and thank you for the bell.

It really helped me.

It helped me too.

You know, I was about to open
my first restaurant.

I was terrified it
was gonna flop.

And this food critic came in

and gave me the sleigh
bell for luck.

Somehow I managed to drop it in
a customer's soup,

and now I'm married
to that customer.

I hope I didn't give
you the wrong idea

at the new year's party.
You seemed great.

It's just by the time we had
crossed paths,

I was already in the soup.

So, the, the bell was
the love story after all.

Just not our love story.

Yeah.

You know, when I called last
week and didn't hear back,

I thought nothing had
come of it.

Sorry, wait, um,
you called last week?

- Uh, ahem.
- Yeah, and I spoke with Jake.

- Yeah.
- Oh, really?

Yeah, but...
- He spoke with you?

Yeah. But you know,
I'm glad we met and I'm,

I'm really glad you're helping
people tell their stories.

Yeah, I'm really
glad we met, too.

Okay, we are gonna take
a quick break.

We'll be right back.

Well, thanks again.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.
Yeah, merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

- I can explain. I uh...
- Don't bother.

Hold on a second. Andi,
just don't, don't do this. Andi.

Andi. Andi, wait.
I was going to tell you

he called all right, but, but
you blindsided me and quit.

Oh, so you thought ambushing
me on air

was the perfect way to get even?

All right, that's not
it, all right?

They wanted more edge,
and I am sorry.

You know, you are Jake at 8.

It is not a brand,
it is exactly who you are.

Andi, just wait a second.

All right? Just one second,
please!

- Merry Christmas!
- Andi, just listen to me.

- Merry Christmas!
- Merry Christmas.

Can I come with you to
the studio today?

Aunt Margaret is gonna watch
you while I'm at work today.

When I come back, then we can
open these presents.

Why didn't you tell Andi about
the Ghost of Christmas Past?

Why spring it on here like that?
- Livy, come on.

Andi has only ever been nice
to you, and to me.

She's the reason I learned piano
so quickly.

She deserved better.
- I know.

You're right.

But you're still not coming to
the studio with me.

Please! You never,
ever mention me on the show.

And it's kinda like you don't
want anyone to know

that I exist.

Livy, I...

I want everyone to know
about you.

You're the best thing I've got.

Look, I do need to be living
more authentically.

So, why don't you go and get
ready

and we'll go to the station
together.

Really? Yes!

- Geez.

You're making me dizzy.

Morning.
Merry Christmas, kiddo.

- Hey.
- Jake, uh,

this is a listener letter

and I really think you
should read it.

- Is it about the sleigh bell?
- Yeah.

- No, thanks.
- Oh, just read it.

What? Look, we've already
given Radi-00 their edgy ending.

The show is not being axed.
So, why are we gonna continue

with this bell nonsense?

30 minute warning.
Read the letter.

I can't stand her sometimes.

I think it's time for a refill.

Don't touch anything
while I'm gone.

Dad, you've got to read this.

Didn't I tell you not to touch
anything while I was gone?

- Just read it!
- She's right, Jake, read it.

Why should I read it?

Because it's important.

It could help you fix things
with Andi.

That ship has sailed.

No, it hasn't. Just read it.

- Read it!
- Okay, geez, guys!

So bossy. I'll read
the letter.

Ahem.

"Hi, long time listener
and big fan." Oh.

"About a month ago, I was about
to perform for a big crowd.

I'm in a band.
I was a nervous wreck.

Backstage, a gal gave me this
sleigh bell.

And guess what? My band just
signed a record deal.

I don't know what exactly
happened between Andi and you

but I do know a bit of luck
might help fix whatever did.

Bell made me brave.

Maybe it could do the same
for you.

Sincerely, a lucky guitarist
who wants to let luck ring."

Cool!

But how exactly is this
supposed to help me with Andi?

I have a plan. Franny gave me
her number for vocal lessons.

Of course she did.

Franny, I need a favour.

This girl.
I can't.

You know she gets it from me.

You know what, Franny?
On second thought,

this is a terrible idea.

I think you should
hear Jake out.

Why would I do that?

Because it was obvious
in the last show that

the Ghost of Christmas Past
wasn't what this all was about.

It's you and Jake.

Ahem.

Hi.
- Hi.

Okay um...

uh, Andi, I'm, I'm sorry
about everything.

Okay.

Okay, uh, okay, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.

Honestly, I was jealous.

What?

I was worried that if you had
found the Ghost

of Christmas Past,
that you wouldn't be in my life.

Because either you would have
found your dream guy

or you'd marry Ned.

Either way, I lose you.

Well, look, um,

yeah, I'm, I'm not marrying Ned.

What?

Yeah, we called it off.

Just wasn't the right fit.

Shh, nobody say anything.
Just be quiet.

I hope the show
wasn't the reason.

No.

Look, you, you weren't the only
one not living authentically.

My mom always said Christmas
is a time for giving,

and I am finally doing
that again.

I'm remembering why I went into
law in the first place.

If I'm being honest,

you were right.

Come on. Little bit closer.

I was hiding behind this
persona to not let anyone in.

Ever since my wife died,
I've just been terrified.

And you have just been so great
with Livy.

You've made our holidays feel
warm again.

I'm realising now that
I don't wanna be Jake at 8.

I wanna be Jake the dad.

The guy who can't sing.

The phenomenal skater.
- Hmm. Mm-mm.

I'm sorry, Andi.

- Nice.

You know, um, I stopped caring

about finding the Ghost
of Christmas Past a while ago.

This whole time,

I think I've just been looking
for you.

- High-five.

No way!

How... how did you...

Hey there, Jake and Andi,
don't be mad, you're on air.

- Uh...
- Um...

Well, I guess you've heard
it all.

Welcome to Jake at 8.
Merry Christmas, Boston.

And why don't we give a warm
welcome back to...

Lucky Andi.

It's great to be back.

I also have another very
special guest

here with us today.

My daughter, Livy, is here.

Livy, why don't you come out
here and join us?

Oh.

Get 'em, girl.

Merry Christmas, Boston.

Yeah. Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, please hold.

Merry Christmas, please hold.

Merry, oh my gosh, yes, uh
merry Christmas, caller...

Let me see that.
It's all you.

Merry Christmas.
Please hold.

Merry Christmas. Please hold one second.
Merry Christmas.
