00:00:30Scout. Homework.
00:00:31After this chapter.
00:00:33Hi.
00:00:34Hi.
00:00:35Will a fair trial?
00:00:36Yes.
00:00:36Registered mail.
00:00:37Oh, thank you.
00:00:41Buddy, I'm serious.
00:00:43Every day Sam's best friend's dog was kidnapped.
00:00:46And it's not the first one in the neighborhood.
00:00:50What in the world?
00:00:53What's a notice to...
00:00:57Beneficiaries and claimants.
00:01:00What does that mean?
00:01:02Mr. Conrad left me something in his will.
00:01:05After he died?
00:01:07What did he leave?
00:01:09A hundred thousand dollars.
00:01:11Who is this person?
00:01:13Her name is Willa Fairchild.
00:01:15She was dad's nurse during these last few months.
00:01:18And he left her a hundred grand and left us?
00:01:21Something much more valuable than money.
00:01:24Finn.
00:01:28Finn.
00:01:30Dear Willa, I can't thank you enough for everything you did for me.
00:01:35You and Scout are very lucky to have each other.
00:01:39You made the right decision to put your family first.
00:01:42You gave your son a second chance.
00:01:44Now it's your turn.
00:01:46This has to be a mistake.
00:01:51Finn!
00:01:52Leaving us when we were kids wasn't enough, huh?
00:01:54Never calling, never reaching out.
00:01:56And now this?
00:01:57Look, I get it.
00:01:58Okay?
00:01:59He didn't call when he was sick.
00:02:00He didn't reach out.
00:02:01He didn't want us to know.
00:02:02Or maybe she kept him from reaching out.
00:02:06The nurse.
00:02:07He drew up a brand new Will.
00:02:09Days before he died and he left the entire estate to her.
00:02:13Come on, you hear about these caregivers taking advantage of their patients all the time.
00:02:17Finn, I...
00:02:18What other explanation could there be?
00:02:20That we were never in the Will.
00:02:23And we were never going to be.
00:02:25Look, Finn, there's something else you need to know.
00:02:27It appears that our father arranged for this nurse to have an all-expense-paid vacation to a bed-and-breakfast called Bramble House in Oregon.
00:02:34Two weeks over Christmas.
00:02:36No.
00:02:38No.
00:02:39No.
00:02:44Don't wait till it's too late like I did to figure out what you want in life.
00:02:49Be Scout's example.
00:02:50Promise me.
00:02:51What does that mean?
00:02:54It means that he's an incredibly thoughtful man.
00:02:57What if...
00:02:59What if I'm not all the way better yet?
00:03:02Okay.
00:03:03So the doctor said you can do anything you want now, right?
00:03:06So we will just take it at your speed.
00:03:09Look.
00:03:11Maybe Mr. Conrad is right.
00:03:14We both got a second chance and we shouldn't waste it.
00:03:19Maybe this can be the Christmas we deserve after everything we've been through the last two years.
00:03:24What do you say?
00:03:27Yeah?
00:03:28Yeah.
00:03:37Yeah, so I talked to the lawyer and she said that if we want to contest the will,
00:03:43that we need to prove that the nurse used undue influence or deception
00:03:48to get the money and we need to do it before the end of the year, December 31st.
00:03:54How would we do that?
00:03:56Well, I'm having her drop an injunction to stop the will from getting paid out
00:04:01and I'm going to go confront this nurse and tell her to back off
00:04:04or we will take her to court and we will win.
00:04:07Do you really want to do that?
00:04:09He's still our father.
00:04:11I mean, don't we have to find out if this woman was taking advantage of him?
00:04:15I can't rest unless I look her in the eye and find out the truth.
00:04:19Every day, Sam found out who kidnapped the neighborhood dogs.
00:04:31But now, the kidnapper has him.
00:04:33How exciting.
00:04:34Hey, buddy, I don't think that you have looked up since we left the airport.
00:04:40Why don't you check out your window?
00:04:42Look at the sky.
00:04:45Look how clear the air is.
00:04:50How much time did you take the angle?
00:04:53Half hour.
00:04:53Half hour.
00:04:53Half hour.
00:04:53Half hour.
00:04:55Half hour.
00:04:57Half hour.
00:04:59Half hour.
00:05:01Half hour.
00:05:03Half hour.
00:05:05It's pretty different than the city, huh?
00:05:07Mm-hmm.
00:05:11Scout, isn't this beautiful?
00:05:13No.
00:05:14Look at all those lights.
00:05:16The lights.
00:05:18Hello.
00:05:19Oh, um, can we help you with that?
00:05:21I'm fine, thank you.
00:05:23Please, we have four hands.
00:05:25Oh, are you Willa and Scout?
00:05:28Oh, hi.
00:05:29I'm Mabel.
00:05:30Mabel Bramble, your host.
00:05:33Welcome.
00:05:37Please, come in.
00:05:39Come in.
00:05:41Oh, this is just the worst time of year to be on the injured list.
00:05:48How did you do it?
00:05:49Horseback riding.
00:05:51It's just not Christmas until the tree is trimmed.
00:05:53Really?
00:05:54I think it looks beautiful, and, you know, we can help.
00:05:58You can just put us to work.
00:05:59My mom loves to decorate.
00:06:02Absolutely not.
00:06:03You're my guests.
00:06:06All right.
00:06:07Let's find this register, and then I'll give you the tour.
00:06:10My family's lived here for 130 years.
00:06:14It'll be you, our town, Santa, and then just one other guest.
00:06:19Those pictures are of my relatives who founded Bramble after Oregon was settled.
00:06:28Did they all live in this house?
00:06:30They sure did.
00:06:31All right.
00:06:32Let's continue.
00:06:33We have games for those extra snowy days.
00:06:37We have skates in lots of sizes for the rink that's just down the road.
00:06:42In the afternoons, I leave treats, hot chocolate, cookies.
00:06:45If you're pleased, welcome to Bramble House.
00:06:53This is magic.
00:06:56Definitely.
00:06:59I read that there's a hike that starts right out in back of Bramble House.
00:07:04What do you think?
00:07:06Hey, buddy.
00:07:08I love how much you read, but we came somewhere entirely new.
00:07:13So let's get outside and have some adventures, okay?
00:07:15What do you think if we go get some marshmallows and roast them in an outdoor fire pit?
00:07:20Marshmallows?
00:07:21Mm-hmm.
00:07:33It's so good.
00:07:34Mm-hmm.
00:07:36Hey, Mom.
00:07:37Mm-hmm.
00:07:38Will Santa know we're here?
00:07:40Yes, I wrote him a letter.
00:07:41You know, I'm fine with just his presence this year.
00:07:47You don't have to get me extra.
00:07:49Why do you say that?
00:07:50Well, you don't have a job right now.
00:07:53So, you don't need to worry about that, okay?
00:07:57Everything is going to be fine.
00:07:59Mm-hmm.
00:08:12Mm-hmm.
00:08:14Mm-hmm.
00:08:14Mm-hmm.
00:08:19Mm-hmm.
00:09:20Sorry, I'm so late. I couldn't find a gas station and then I lost my GPS signal out on those back roads.
00:09:58You probably wouldn't want me just handing it to a stranger. Let me make sure that she has your name in the book.
00:10:06Uh, what is your name?
00:10:09Uh, it's Finn. Finn...
00:10:11Finn Knightley. You're right here.
00:10:13Then you are who you say you are.
00:10:17I'll show you up.
00:10:18Actually, I need to...
00:10:19I need to ask you a question.
00:10:23Okay, I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to answer it.
00:10:26No, I think you can.
00:10:27I think...
00:10:28Miss Fairchild?
00:10:32You...
00:10:32Mom?
00:10:34Oh.
00:10:36Sweetheart.
00:10:37I woke up and I couldn't find you.
00:10:39I'm so sorry. You were in a strange place all by yourself. I'm sorry.
00:10:44Can I take you back to bed?
00:10:46Okay.
00:10:47This is Finn.
00:10:49He's a new guest at Bramble House.
00:10:50Can you say hi?
00:10:51Okay, let's go.
00:10:55Grab your stuff. I'll show you your room.
00:11:13Scout?
00:11:18Scout?
00:11:18Scout?
00:11:21I didn't want to turn on the light and wake you up.
00:11:30But, Mom...
00:11:31Mm-hmm.
00:11:33Was that guy from last night...
00:11:35Was his full name Finn Knightley?
00:11:38Yeah.
00:11:39He's the illustrator of Everyday Sam.
00:11:41He's staying here.
00:11:43Can we ask him about his next book?
00:11:44Maybe he'll be at breakfast. Come on.
00:11:47Scout.
00:11:49Pajamas.
00:11:51Mom, look.
00:12:01Well, hi there.
00:12:02Mabel said the town Santa was staying here. Hi.
00:12:05Hi.
00:12:05I'm Willa, and this is my son, Scout.
00:12:08Well, hiya, Scout. Nice to meet you.
00:12:11You know, my real name is Ken.
00:12:12Did you know that Santa had helpers all over the world collecting Christmas wishes from kids?
00:12:18Oh.
00:12:19Well, my favorite thing in the whole world to do is hear those wishes.
00:12:24Not yours yet?
00:12:25My Christmas wish already came true.
00:12:28Really?
00:12:29But...
00:12:30Maybe there's a few toys I could add in?
00:12:35Sure thing, and I'll get them to the big guy.
00:12:37But here's my question.
00:12:39Does anyone else smell bacon?
00:12:42You're a favorite.
00:12:44Let's go get some.
00:12:46Mabel, let me help you with that.
00:12:47No, no, no, no. I'm fine.
00:12:49Thank you for asking.
00:12:50Well, this is amazing. Everything looks delicious.
00:12:55Can I get anybody coffee, tea, marshmallows?
00:13:01We roasted some last night, and...
00:13:04Did you put the garland on the steps, too?
00:13:06I couldn't sleep. Fixing things up relaxes me.
00:13:10I do the decorations. And the dessert.
00:13:13What you did was very thoughtful.
00:13:15Don't do it again.
00:13:17Yes, ma'am.
00:13:20She is tough.
00:13:24I gotta use it.
00:13:26Not too tough.
00:13:28We grew up together.
00:13:30Oh.
00:13:31I've been living in Portland for the last 20 years,
00:13:33but I always come back to Bramble to be Santa.
00:13:36She's just mad that she hurt herself ice skating.
00:13:39Ice skating? She told me horseback riding.
00:13:42Oh, she's always been a slippery one.
00:13:45Hi.
00:13:46Good morning, I'm Kent.
00:13:47Hey, Finn. Morning.
00:13:49Good morning.
00:13:50My son has discovered that you are the illustrator of one of his favorite books.
00:13:55He's a huge Everyday Sam fan.
00:13:59Is that so?
00:14:00I read the first ten books twice, and I'm on the 11th.
00:14:04Are you here working on the next one?
00:14:06I am.
00:14:08Actually, the one that comes out next Christmas.
00:14:11Yeah.
00:14:12Um, I'm doing some sketching later today in the park, um, if you'd like to check it out.
00:14:20Um, oh, thank you, but no, we're, um, planning a mellow day, and...
00:14:26You guys don't want to miss the Christmas stroll.
00:14:28The Christmas stroll?
00:14:30Mr. Conrad said it was awesome.
00:14:32Yes, and it starts today.
00:14:34And I can always use help with a stand-in for Sam.
00:14:38When I'm drawing, you'd actually be doing me a huge favor.
00:14:42I get to be Sam?
00:14:45Well, I guess we'll be joining you.
00:14:48Right.
00:14:49This place will be great for your book, right?
00:15:00Yeah, it's beautiful.
00:15:02What should I do?
00:15:04Um, why don't you go stand with those carolers over there?
00:15:07Pretend you're singing.
00:15:08Is it all right?
00:15:09As long as you stay where I can see you.
00:15:12No, no, no, no.
00:15:14Don't be down again.
00:15:17Hurt.
00:15:17I'm sorry, I don't mean to disturb you.
00:15:35Oh, no, no, no, not at all.
00:15:36Please, have a seat.
00:15:37I'm just roughing it out.
00:15:38Really?
00:15:38Yeah, yeah, come, chat.
00:15:46You have a great job.
00:15:47Getting to go to beautiful places and always having a way to record them.
00:15:52Yeah, it is.
00:15:55What about you?
00:15:56What do you do?
00:15:57It's nothing as glamorous as that.
00:15:58I've been working as a health aide.
00:16:01A nurse?
00:16:02Not quite.
00:16:04I did all the coursework, but, um, just...
00:16:08But you didn't want to finish?
00:16:09It's...
00:16:10It's...
00:16:12It's complicated.
00:16:14Yeah.
00:16:15I'm sorry.
00:16:16I don't know your situation, so it must be...
00:16:19You must meet some pretty interesting characters along the way, huh?
00:16:24Mm-hmm.
00:16:25Any that stick out?
00:16:28I'm sorry.
00:16:31I can't really talk about my patients.
00:16:33Oh, yeah, no, of course.
00:16:34I was just thinking that, uh, you know, they must really depend on you.
00:16:39And, uh, open up.
00:16:42It's kind of like that.
00:16:44Mr. Knightley, I...
00:16:46Uh, Finn, please.
00:16:46And, uh, yeah, I know.
00:16:48I'm being nosy.
00:16:49But it's just kind of part of my job description to kind of hear people's stories so I can portray them in my work.
00:16:55And you do something I don't know anything about, so...
00:17:00It is sort of like that.
00:17:04Um, everyone has a story, and when people are laid up or they're hurting and you get them one-on-one, they do tend to open up.
00:17:16Um, what kind of stuff do they say?
00:17:22I know.
00:17:23Okay.
00:17:23I heard it.
00:17:24Um, well, I just think that you seem like the kind of person that, uh, a lot of people would like to talk to.
00:17:38There's a chocolate shop over there.
00:17:40And Mr. Conrad says they have the best hot chocolate here.
00:17:44They do?
00:17:44Well, then let's go get some.
00:17:48Um, it was really nice talking with you.
00:17:51And you?
00:17:52Mr. Knightley's not coming?
00:17:54Oh, no.
00:17:55Call me Finn, please.
00:17:56Um, well, I would love a hot chocolate if it's, uh, okay with...
00:18:02Yeah, please, come with us.
00:18:04Okay.
00:18:04Just let me...
00:18:05Okay.
00:18:07I'll be right there.
00:18:07So, who's Mr. Conrad?
00:18:19He's one of my mom's patients.
00:18:21Scout.
00:18:22What?
00:18:23He was really nice.
00:18:24There were a few days when my childcare fell through and he was very understanding.
00:18:28We played cards and he taught me how to bet in poker.
00:18:32We also watched skating on TV.
00:18:34He loves speed skating.
00:18:36He loves skating.
00:18:38He did, huh?
00:18:39He wanted to teach me.
00:18:41He taught his son when he was my age.
00:18:43And, uh, he's the one that recommended this place.
00:18:49He spent his first five Christmases here and he had very fond memories.
00:18:54He's the one who gave us this trip.
00:18:56Hmm.
00:18:57It was a surprise for me, too.
00:18:59Scout has always wanted to learn how to skate.
00:19:02I could teach him.
00:19:04Oh, I'm sorry.
00:19:05That wasn't what I was saying.
00:19:06I just, um...
00:19:07No, no.
00:19:08Both of you.
00:19:09Yeah, I mean, I think I saw a rink by Bramble House and I'm pretty sure...
00:19:13Mabel loans out skates, so...
00:19:16Could we?
00:19:18Well, if, um, Mr...
00:19:20If Finn has the time, then...
00:19:23Yes, I'd be happy to.
00:19:25Yeah.
00:19:29Hey, I'm Sage.
00:19:30I'm the owner.
00:19:31Nice to meet you.
00:19:32You do amazing work.
00:19:33This is delicious.
00:19:34Oh, thank you.
00:19:35Well, we just love it when families come into town.
00:19:38Oh, we're not, um...
00:19:40No, he belongs to me.
00:19:41Oh.
00:19:41Yeah, I'm just tagging along for the sugar rush, so...
00:19:44Well, hey, while you're here, you've got to try a sample of our famous chocolate truffles
00:19:50they are to die for.
00:19:51Can I?
00:19:52Yes.
00:19:54Come with me.
00:19:58You know, Scout has really loved your everyday Sam books.
00:20:02A hero in everyday life.
00:20:05That's a great gift to some kids.
00:20:07Wow, thank you.
00:20:11It's nothing like the hard work you do.
00:20:14Patients must be very grateful.
00:20:16Do all of them give you gifts like this?
00:20:19Like this?
00:20:20No.
00:20:21No, never.
00:20:23Why do you think Mr. Conrad did?
00:20:25Well, because we connected.
00:20:27We shared things about our life.
00:20:32We were close.
00:20:34Um...
00:20:35I don't know.
00:20:37Maybe I should have turned it down.
00:20:40Why did you take it?
00:20:41Honestly, because it's been a very difficult couple of years.
00:20:49And because I promised him I would take every chance I was given.
00:20:52What did the family think?
00:20:54You know, they never reached out.
00:20:56I really wish they had.
00:20:58I could tell them quite a lot, but I'm not sure they cared.
00:21:02Well, you don't really know them.
00:21:08Do you?
00:21:10No.
00:21:11You're right.
00:21:12I don't.
00:21:14I'm sorry.
00:21:15I really shouldn't have opened that door, and that's on me.
00:21:18No, no.
00:21:20I get it.
00:21:21I've been...
00:21:22Yeah.
00:21:23Sorry.
00:21:25Um...
00:21:25I, uh...
00:21:27Yeah.
00:21:27I should go finish up some work.
00:21:29I will see you back at Bramble House.
00:21:32Finn.
00:21:33Did I say something to offend you?
00:21:35No, no, no, no, no.
00:21:35It's all good.
00:21:36I just...
00:21:37I should finish up these drawings, and, uh, I will see you later.
00:21:46So you didn't tell her about the injunction?
00:21:48You didn't confront her?
00:21:50Well, her son stumbled out of bed last night when I was about to.
00:21:53And he's been with her ever since.
00:21:55She's a mom.
00:21:56A single mom, by the looks of it.
00:21:58You know, her kids met dad, too.
00:22:01I mean, they watched skating together.
00:22:02Played cards.
00:22:03It was so hard for me to hear.
00:22:05So when are you gonna tell her about the injunction?
00:22:07We're less than two weeks out.
00:22:09If we confront her with the papers too soon, she's gonna shut down, and then we won't get
00:22:14the answers we need.
00:22:15We need a confession.
00:22:16I will talk to the owner and see if I can get a, an extra day or two, and then start down
00:22:22this road.
00:22:23Malz, don't worry.
00:22:25I got this.
00:22:26Hi.
00:22:27Could I buy a small box of those chocolate truffles?
00:22:33Oh, of course.
00:22:34I want to get a gift as a thank you for the owner of Bramble House.
00:22:37Oh, you two are staying at Bramble House.
00:22:39That's my aunt's place.
00:22:41Mabel is your aunt?
00:22:43Well, I was thinking of getting her some ornaments.
00:22:46Oh, oh.
00:22:47She won't like that at all.
00:22:48She's a little controlling.
00:22:51Well, I'll say.
00:22:52She likes everything just the way she likes it.
00:22:55Is she still mad she hurt herself sledding?
00:22:57Sledding.
00:22:57Now, you know, I think I like your aunt more and more every day.
00:23:03You know, my daughter and I were headed out to do some errands.
00:23:05She's about your son's age.
00:23:07You want some company?
00:23:08That'd be nice.
00:23:09Cool.
00:23:12Oh, hey, Finn.
00:23:14Hey.
00:23:15Uh, did I hear that you're a children's book illustrator?
00:23:19Yeah, that's right.
00:23:20Because, uh, every Christmas Eve I do a reading for the kids in town the night before Christmas.
00:23:25And we try to get a special guest for them.
00:23:28Interested in that?
00:23:29Oh, thanks.
00:23:30But I'm not going to be here through Christmas Eve.
00:23:32Home for the holidays.
00:23:33Family.
00:23:33Right, of course.
00:23:34Well, uh, maybe another time.
00:23:35All right, sure.
00:23:38What about Bramble House?
00:23:40Has it always been a B&B?
00:23:42Actually, it was a family home for generations.
00:23:45Mabel was living there until the recession hit.
00:23:47Uh, they almost put it up for sale.
00:23:50She single-handedly saved it by turning it into a B&B.
00:23:53Uh, honestly, don't know how she does it all alone.
00:23:55Mom, look, it's Finn's book.
00:23:58Can I go in and show Savannah?
00:24:00Of course.
00:24:00Sure.
00:24:00There they are.
00:24:10He likes that thing.
00:24:13And you, you guys seem pretty friendly.
00:24:17Uh.
00:24:17Oh, sorry.
00:24:19Just kick me.
00:24:19I blurt things out.
00:24:21Look, that's my friend.
00:24:23Really?
00:24:24Yeah.
00:24:24And he's here writing a new book.
00:24:26You're the author of it.
00:24:28Are they?
00:24:28Um, I used to be.
00:24:31I'm trying not to anymore.
00:24:33I just don't want to miss the world.
00:24:39These are so beautiful.
00:24:42You know what?
00:24:49I think we're going to try a little homemade magic.
00:24:54Hey, Scout.
00:24:55Come here.
00:24:56Let's go.
00:25:01Look at all those presents.
00:25:03Yeah.
00:25:03I bet Mabel is going to try to get all of them in herself, too.
00:25:07He should help.
00:25:09Good idea.
00:25:09What are you doing?
00:25:15Nothing.
00:25:16We saw these sitting in your trunk and thought we would help out by bringing them in.
00:25:20I just dropped off a batch and then was going to head back out.
00:25:24Oh, okay.
00:25:25Well, I'm so sorry.
00:25:27I should have asked first.
00:25:28Um, that was my mistake.
00:25:30But since they're all inside now...
00:25:34Yep.
00:25:35Right there under the tree.
00:25:39If you ever need anything else or want anything else, just feel free to ask us.
00:25:51Yeah, never mind.
00:25:53We'll, uh...
00:25:54Thank you.
00:25:55You're welcome.
00:26:00Can we make gingerbread houses now?
00:26:03Uh, as long as Mabel doesn't see.
00:26:07Hey, Ben.
00:26:08You want to make gingerbread houses with us?
00:26:11Oh, no, that's okay.
00:26:12We don't want to disturb you.
00:26:14No.
00:26:15Actually, I would love to.
00:26:16Uh, but I gotta warn you.
00:26:18I'm a gingerbread house champion.
00:26:20Are you really?
00:26:21Yep.
00:26:22Uh, well, we will see about that because I think...
00:26:25Is that so?
00:26:28Well, game on, good sir.
00:26:32Mom, isn't this one great?
00:26:34You guys are amazing.
00:26:37You see, this is what happens when you put two gingerbread experts together.
00:26:41Yeah, it is.
00:26:42Mine, on the other hand, is, um, having some trouble.
00:26:46Can I give you a hand?
00:26:47I think I see the problem.
00:26:49Yes, please.
00:26:50Okay.
00:26:50Oh, just keep sliding.
00:26:51Extra icing.
00:26:53Up there.
00:26:55There you go.
00:26:56And then...
00:26:57That's what I did.
00:27:00No, I know, but you want to hold it up at the top.
00:27:02And hold it until it dries.
00:27:03Okay, thank you.
00:27:07Yeah, um...
00:27:10Sorry I left so abruptly earlier.
00:27:13I'm the one who invited you into town, and it was...
00:27:16No, it's...
00:27:17It was nice.
00:27:19I'm glad we came.
00:27:19Good.
00:27:20Uh, and so you two are staying through Christmas?
00:27:23New Year's, and then it's back to reality.
00:27:26What's reality?
00:27:27Scout goes back to school, and hopefully I have a new job by then, because money has been tight.
00:27:35I thought you just finished a job.
00:27:38Well, we've had some extra expenses this year.
00:27:41What kind?
00:27:44I know.
00:27:45I'm sorry.
00:27:47I'll tell you what.
00:27:48Why don't you ask me anything, and I will answer.
00:27:50When's the new plot of the Everyday Sandbook?
00:27:52Except that.
00:27:53Uh, I have sworn to secrecy.
00:27:56But, I'll tell you what.
00:27:57The town carriage ride starts in an hour, and I actually need to draw Sam near horses,
00:28:03because he rides a horse in the next book.
00:28:05So I was wondering if you would want another modeling gig?
00:28:09Are you?
00:28:10Mom, we're going on a carriage ride right now.
00:28:13If it's all right.
00:28:14I guess we're going on a carriage ride.
00:28:18Excellent.
00:28:21Finish this up.
00:28:22Okay.
00:28:22We're next.
00:28:36I can't wait.
00:28:38This is going to be so much fun.
00:28:39Can I go say hi?
00:28:40Yes, just stay with Savannah and stay right where I can see you, okay?
00:28:46Don't worry, Mom.
00:28:47I got this.
00:28:49He's a great kid.
00:28:51He's really over the moon that you've taken an interest.
00:28:55Well, I like him.
00:28:58Have you ever seen anything like this town?
00:29:01Next up!
00:29:02You're up, bud.
00:29:13Hey, Scout.
00:29:14Look around you and then close your eyes.
00:29:17Okay, put everything you just saw into your brain like a picture.
00:29:21That way you can keep it even after we've gone.
00:29:25Okay, now open them.
00:29:27It belongs to you now.
00:29:32It's been so long since I've seen Scout having such a wonderful time,
00:29:41and now you're drawing a custom portrait of him with Santa.
00:29:45Ho, ho, ho.
00:29:47Merry Christmas.
00:29:49Scout would lose his mind if some version of that ended up in everyday things.
00:29:54Can I tell you my wish?
00:29:55No, because then it won't come true.
00:29:57That's only birthdays.
00:29:59I wish...
00:30:00No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:30:01Can I tell you then?
00:30:03Yeah, sure, why not?
00:30:05I want to stay around.
00:30:07Oh.
00:30:09Okay, well, now I want to know.
00:30:11Too late.
00:30:12Now tell me yours.
00:30:14Oh, well, I haven't made a Christmas wish for quite some time.
00:30:19Well, you are going to have to get started on that soon.
00:30:22That's what Christmas is for.
00:30:24To remind us that wishes can come true.
00:30:26So, skating tomorrow?
00:30:33And maybe make a snowman, and...
00:30:35What?
00:30:36You want to do all of that in one day?
00:30:37I want to do everything now.
00:30:39The doctor said go up my speed.
00:30:41Maybe my speed is changing.
00:30:43It's really cool that Finn Knightley wants to teach me how to skate.
00:30:47He's really, really nice, isn't he?
00:30:49He really, really is.
00:30:53Okay, get some sleep.
00:30:56When am I supposed to sleep now?
00:30:58I'm going to be right across the hall in the library, okay?
00:31:02Hey, buddy.
00:31:03Are you sure you don't want to tell me what your Christmas wish was?
00:31:07I want to stay here longer.
00:31:09For as long as we can.
00:31:11It is pretty great, right?
00:31:13It's the best place I ever came to.
00:31:15I love you, Scout.
00:31:17Good night.
00:31:18Good night.
00:31:37You look cozy.
00:31:40Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.
00:31:41I was just going to, uh...
00:31:43Do you mind?
00:31:45Of course.
00:31:52Job market.
00:31:54Slim pickings.
00:31:55Do you ever think about going back and finishing your degree?
00:31:59Yeah, I just don't think that'd be right for me.
00:32:02Right, yeah.
00:32:03I guess managing school and work would be pretty hard, huh?
00:32:08And I guess Scout's dad isn't in the picture.
00:32:11Well, we divorced a few years ago, and now he's a birthday and Christmas card kind of dad.
00:32:20You said that you and your dad weren't close.
00:32:24Was he in your life?
00:32:28Uh, he was until I was ten.
00:32:30And then, uh, he disappeared two days after Christmas one year.
00:32:34And you never saw him again?
00:32:43That's so sad.
00:32:46Is that kind of what happened with Scout's dad?
00:32:49He...
00:32:49Um, it was more gradual.
00:32:52I'm just still trying to figure out how to help Scout through it.
00:32:57And...
00:32:58If you don't mind, what helped you?
00:33:02Oh, uh, my mom.
00:33:05My sister, yeah.
00:33:07Um, a decent stepdad.
00:33:09And, uh...
00:33:11Oh, my art.
00:33:12Yeah.
00:33:13You do what you love.
00:33:15Hmm.
00:33:16You don't love your job?
00:33:18I love the people I've met.
00:33:20But really, it was Mr. Conrad who affected me the most, because he showed me that it's okay to want a rewarding life for myself.
00:33:29He said that.
00:33:31He said so many things.
00:33:33I think the thing that stuck with me the most is that I'm Scout's example of how to live.
00:33:41And he encouraged me to do a better job of it than he did with his own children.
00:33:44Oh, look at that.
00:33:53Oh, it's snowing.
00:33:57It's beautiful.
00:33:58Hmm.
00:33:59Let's go grab our coats.
00:34:04Can I ask, why do you keep asking about Mr. Conrad and my work?
00:34:11Am I?
00:34:11I just feel like you want to hear something bad about it or about me.
00:34:18Oh, no, no.
00:34:19I...
00:34:20I think I'm just all out of sorts with what's going on in my own life.
00:34:26I really wanted to say some things to my dad, and I just really wish...
00:34:34Yeah, it's...
00:34:36Now it's too late.
00:34:37I could listen to what you wanted to say.
00:34:42That can be very healing.
00:34:44And I'm here.
00:34:46Wow, that's...
00:34:50No wonder people are up to you.
00:34:53Tell you their secrets.
00:34:55I mean, being there for people, that's what you love.
00:35:00I don't know if it's that simple.
00:35:02What if it is?
00:35:04It's yours to choose.
00:35:05What's holding you back?
00:35:07Scout might wake up and wonder where I am, and you need to work.
00:35:19I'm sorry if I said the wrong thing.
00:35:21Oh, you didn't.
00:35:22You didn't.
00:35:22You said incredibly nice things.
00:35:24Look, if you meant it about teaching Scout how to skate, and me, I'd like that.
00:35:39I would be happy to.
00:35:42Tomorrow morning, and you.
00:35:46Okay.
00:35:46Okay.
00:35:48Night, then.
00:35:51Night.
00:35:51Night.
00:35:51Night.
00:35:54Good night.
00:36:01Night.
00:36:01Night.
00:36:02Gotcha, darling.
00:36:02Night.
00:36:09Night.
00:36:11Night.
00:36:17Night.
00:36:22Night.
00:36:24Night.
00:36:24Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
00:36:54Okay, if you tell me your sizes, then I can find them for you
00:36:59I can take it from here
00:37:00There she is
00:37:02So maybe we're still on for that catch-up over coffee?
00:37:06Oh, I'm so... I can't
00:37:09I have the dishes, I have recycling, and I have a handyman coming at 11
00:37:13Actually, Scout can handle the recycling
00:37:15And we will be done skating by 11 so I can wait for the handyman
00:37:19Look, I know you like to do everything yourself
00:37:22But you have to admit that when I have helped, it's been useful
00:37:26So why not let me do it?
00:37:28I'm fine, really
00:37:29Miss Bramble, I have had half a dozen patients who won't admit they need time to recover
00:37:34They sound just like you
00:37:36Now, I think that you should go and have coffee with the man who has been coming here for 22 years
00:37:43And I'm paid through the end of the week, so you can't throw me out for saying all that
00:37:46Fine
00:37:49Fine? That's it?
00:37:51Yeah
00:37:52Okay, okay then, well, go get ready
00:37:53No more ordering around
00:37:56Yeah
00:37:58Quick, go before she changes her mind
00:38:00Well, thank you
00:38:02What are Christmas wishes for?
00:38:08Hey!

00:40:16No, I'd like to
00:40:17Yeah, we'll skate around for a bit and then I'll take them through town

00:41:14Thank you
00:41:16Where's that Mabel?
00:41:19She's in town, what are you doing here?
00:41:21She forgot about the cookie bake?
00:41:26Well, it's our annual tradition
00:41:28To make cookies for the book reading on Christmas Eve
00:41:32It's also our tradition to eat several dozen while we make them
00:41:36But no Mabel
00:41:38That's on me
00:41:39I sent her off to have her annual coffee with Ken
00:41:42Santa Ken, huh?
00:41:46Okay, wait
00:41:47You see it too?
00:41:49He's had a crush on my aunt for 20 years
00:41:51She has no idea?
00:41:52I don't think Ken's ever worked the nerve up to tell her
00:41:55Or maybe your aunt's too scary
00:41:56Savannah's coming over later
00:41:59Where's Scout?
00:42:00Uh, with Finn
00:42:01In fact, they are probably at your chocolate shop right now
00:42:04With Finn, huh?
00:42:13How do you draw all those things in the books?
00:42:16How do I draw all those things in the books?
00:42:18Well, I learned a few secrets a long time ago from a very special teacher
00:42:22Basically, all it is is modified shapes
00:42:26Okay, so if I'm doing a face
00:42:27We start off with like a nice
00:42:29Just rough and then oval like that
00:42:32Two little ovals for the eyes
00:42:33And then an open triangle for the nose
00:42:35And then a little line for the mouth
00:42:38And then you kind of just go all crazy for the hair like that
00:42:42And then there it is
00:42:43Give it a title
00:42:45Every piece of art has a title or a caption
00:42:49So what do you think it should be called?
00:42:52Hmm, Scout Loves Chocolate?
00:42:55Scout Loves Chocolate
00:42:57Truth in Art
00:42:58Sounds perfect
00:43:00There you go, all done
00:43:01There you go
00:43:06For me?
00:43:07You bet
00:43:08Can you do another one?
00:43:10Sure
00:43:10What would you like to see?
00:43:12How about me skating?
00:43:14Me skating, sounds good
00:43:15Why did you want to learn about skating?
00:43:18Was it because of talking to Mr. Conrad?
00:43:22Well, I've always wanted to learn
00:43:24But he told me a lot about it
00:43:26And he was really smart
00:43:28And he told me funny stories
00:43:30Yeah?
00:43:31What kind of stories?
00:43:33About places he went
00:43:35People he met
00:43:36And funny things his kids did when they were my age
00:43:39Yeah? Like what?
00:43:41What kind of things?
00:43:42He showed me some ornaments they made
00:43:44But I think Christmas made him sad
00:43:47Yeah?
00:43:50What do you think that is?
00:43:52Do you know?
00:43:53Because even though they were growing up
00:43:55I think he wanted to have another Christmas with them
00:43:58Okay, I think one very last piece
00:44:11Okay, get in there
00:44:12I've just been so focused on Scout
00:44:24These last few years
00:44:25I barely even remember what it's like
00:44:27To have a conversation with a man
00:44:29Let alone date one
00:44:31Then it's time
00:44:32Why are we even talking about this?
00:44:37Nothing's happened
00:44:38Except you're thinking about it
00:44:40I had a patient who gave me an extraordinary gift
00:44:45He challenged me to live the life I dream of
00:44:49So?
00:44:51The problem is I don't remember what my dreams are
00:44:54And I don't want to just get by
00:44:58But what do you do when you've been given a second chance at life
00:45:03And you don't know what to do with it
00:45:05What if you just took one step?
00:45:09And then another
00:45:10And then another
00:45:12All you have to do is ask yourself
00:45:14What's step one?
00:45:22Okay
00:45:22Scout
00:45:26Scout loves skating
00:45:28Scout loves skating
00:45:30Okay
00:45:30The Scout loves series we'll call it
00:45:33You
00:45:34I'm our new copywriter
00:45:35Done
00:45:37Maybe I could put these together
00:45:39Like a present for my mom
00:45:41Your drawings
00:45:42And my captions
00:45:44I could also write a story around her
00:45:46Or
00:45:49We don't have to
00:45:51I could do something else
00:45:53No, no
00:45:53I'm sure she would love it
00:45:55And
00:45:56Maybe someday you'll even write your own book
00:45:59Me?
00:46:00Write a book?
00:46:01Why not?
00:46:02You've read so many
00:46:02I bet you'd make a great writer
00:46:04Is that what you want to be when you grow up?
00:46:09I
00:46:10I didn't
00:46:11I was really sick the last few years
00:46:16I thought I might die
00:46:17Scout
00:46:21So
00:46:22Everyone stopped asking what I wanted to be when I grew up
00:46:26I had this operation on my heart last May
00:46:29It was a new kind of operation
00:46:31That they didn't have before
00:46:33So
00:46:33I was real lucky
00:46:35Yeah
00:46:38That's
00:46:39Wow
00:46:42I had
00:46:43That's amazing
00:46:46My mom says we both got a second chance
00:46:50So
00:46:50Maybe I could be a writer
00:46:52All right
00:46:56One sec
00:46:56Maybe that's your
00:46:58Yep
00:46:59What is it?
00:47:00Oh
00:47:00Your mom says
00:47:01That she and Sage
00:47:03Are making a lot of cookies
00:47:05Really?
00:47:06Yeah
00:47:06Let's go
00:47:07Let's go
00:47:08I agree
00:47:09You know
00:47:12We have a lot in common
00:47:13We both like skating
00:47:15And everyday Sam
00:47:16And
00:47:17Our fathers weren't here for Christmas
00:47:19Thanks Ben?
00:47:35Yeah
00:47:35Cookies
00:47:47Just in time
00:47:49Want to help decorate?
00:47:51Here
00:47:51Let me get these off
00:47:52Welcome back
00:47:58Hey
00:47:59Um
00:48:01Willa
00:48:02Can I talk to you for a second?
00:48:03Of course
00:48:04Be right back
00:48:06Let's decorate
00:48:10Secure
00:48:12Hey
00:48:13Is everything okay?
00:48:15Scott wasn't a problem was he?
00:48:17No
00:48:17No
00:48:17No
00:48:17He's amazing
00:48:18He's uh
00:48:20He's an incredible kid
00:48:21Thanks
00:48:23So is there anything wrong?
00:48:27He almost died
00:48:29What did he tell you?
00:48:32He told me he had a heart operation
00:48:35And that
00:48:35For two years
00:48:37For two years
00:48:39We weren't sure he was going to make it
00:48:42But now he's just a regular kid
00:48:45That's what you've been doing for the last two years
00:48:50And his dad
00:48:54Well he doesn't really pitch in
00:48:56So as the medical bills mounted
00:49:00Scout and I've had to live week to week
00:49:04And so this holiday is
00:49:06This holiday
00:49:07This is a dream
00:49:10Given what we've been through
00:49:12And your
00:49:13Mr. Conrad
00:49:16He knew that
00:49:18And it's more than that
00:49:21He
00:49:23Left us enough money to pay all of Scout's medical bills
00:49:27A hundred thousand dollars
00:49:29For the operation
00:49:34And I don't know
00:49:36How I can ever repay that
00:49:38Except to make sure that Scout has the best life
00:49:41He possibly can
00:49:42And to take this chance to find what I'm meant to be doing too
00:49:47That's uh
00:49:49That's an incredible gift
00:49:53I just wish I could tell his children
00:49:56What he's done
00:49:58You know
00:49:59How much he changed at the end of his life
00:50:01When he was younger he worked hard
00:50:04But he felt it was a constant source of disappointment to his family
00:50:07And
00:50:08For some reason thought they would be better off without him
00:50:11That if he left
00:50:13His wife could find someone else to love her
00:50:15And
00:50:16Raise his kids the way he thought they deserved
00:50:19But then in the end
00:50:22Well at the end of his life
00:50:23He felt it was the biggest mistake he'd ever made
00:50:25But it was too late to change it
00:50:27Leaving his children was the biggest regret of his life
00:50:31Mr. Conrad
00:50:41His family
00:50:44They are so lucky
00:50:49That you were there for him
00:50:51Anybody would be lucky
00:50:53To have you in their life
00:50:55I mean it's no wonder
00:50:56It's no wonder he wanted you to thrive
00:51:00To have a second chance
00:51:01Will I
00:51:01I need to tell you something
00:51:08And I should have told you
00:51:09When we first met
00:51:11What is happening in my house
00:51:17What is happening
00:51:19Can you
00:51:20Here we should
00:51:21Okay
00:51:21Yeah
00:51:22Okay
00:51:25I know this looks bad
00:51:27You're cooking in my kitchen
00:51:29Sage you're my own niece
00:51:32How could you
00:51:33How to heck with all that Mabel
00:51:35Did you have an accident
00:51:37Did you hurt your foot
00:51:38Yes
00:51:38Right
00:51:39So can you do all of this by yourself
00:51:41No
00:51:43Then either you have to let people help you
00:51:45Or nothing's going to get done
00:51:47Your choice
00:51:48Are you really that stubborn
00:51:52That you'd rather not have a full Christmas around here
00:51:54Yes
00:51:54These people care for you
00:51:58If you're incapable of seeing that
00:52:01I
00:52:01I'm sorry
00:52:03Excuse me
00:52:10Wait
00:52:16I'm going for a drive
00:52:18Oh
00:52:19You're angry
00:52:20No
00:52:21I'm not
00:52:22I just don't understand people
00:52:24Who can't see what's right in front of them
00:52:26So I was being a tyrant
00:52:42And I'm sorry
00:52:44It's just this place should be so much Christmas here by now
00:52:48And I just didn't know how to accomplish that on my own
00:52:50So
00:52:51If you amazing people would like to help me with that
00:52:54I would welcome that
00:52:56What can we do
00:53:00Oh thank you
00:53:01Have yourself a merry little Christmas
00:53:10I see this one
00:53:12Let your heart be light
00:53:15It's nice
00:53:16Hey
00:53:17Yeah
00:53:17See you
00:53:18From now on
00:53:21Our troubles
00:53:22We'll be out of sight
00:53:26Should we show Maple now?
00:53:35Yeah
00:53:36I think she said she went shopping
00:53:38Let's show it to her when it's perfect
00:53:40The yuletide game
00:53:43How about on the earth?
00:53:47From now on
00:53:49Our troubles
00:53:50Will be far away
00:53:54Here we are
00:54:04Oh it's beautiful
00:54:17Um I brought you something
00:54:20You did?
00:54:23Oh my goodness
00:54:24What is this?
00:54:26Early Christmas present
00:54:27You remembered
00:54:32Oh it's incredible
00:54:34Thank you
00:54:36Thank you
00:54:39Look at what you did
00:54:42Oh this is what we did
00:54:44And hats off to your aunt for letting us
00:54:47Hats off to you
00:54:48She's been different since you came
00:54:49And someone else has changed too
00:54:52He's wonderful with Ska
00:54:56You two seem pretty cozy
00:54:59You still thinking about all that?
00:55:03My head knows it's crazy
00:55:04But I'm trying to do what I promised
00:55:07You know
00:55:08Follow my heart
00:55:10Embrace my life
00:55:11Take a chance
00:55:13And go
00:55:14I went a little crazy
00:55:18And bought all sorts of treats
00:55:20For all of you
00:55:20Just look at that
00:55:30Now it looks like Christmas
00:55:33Thank you
00:55:39So the $100,000 was to pay for medical bills?
00:55:47Seriously?
00:55:48She's a healthcare aide with a kid
00:55:50And a mountain of bills
00:55:50Just struggling to get by
00:55:52Dad gave her way out
00:55:53Well she's lying to you
00:55:54It was the son that told me
00:55:56Wait sorry
00:55:57So now you're bonding with her son?
00:56:00Mom
00:56:00Just listen
00:56:02Look I don't know what's going on there
00:56:04But it's out for me
00:56:05Like she's got you turned around
00:56:06Like she did dad
00:56:07It's not what you think
00:56:09Dad opened up to her
00:56:11He told her that he regretted so much
00:56:14What he had done to us
00:56:15And in his own mind
00:56:17He thought at the time
00:56:18That he was helping mom
00:56:19So she could get married
00:56:20So that there would be someone there for her
00:56:23For us
00:56:23Or she's on to you
00:56:26And she knows exactly what to say
00:56:28To push your buttons
00:56:29She's not like that
00:56:32Alright
00:56:32And this was never about the money
00:56:34Money which we don't need
00:56:36By the way
00:56:37No
00:56:39It's time
00:56:40To let all of this go
00:56:42I'm not sure under the injunction
00:56:46I'm not going to pursue it
00:56:49And neither should you
00:56:50So what
00:56:51That's it?
00:56:51You're just going to come back to Seattle
00:56:53For Christmas and forget about it?
00:56:57I'm going to stay here for Christmas
00:56:58I'll see you at New Year's in Seattle
00:57:00We'll raise a glass for dad
00:57:03And think of the good times
00:57:06We did have with him
00:57:06Alright?
00:57:08You have a good Christmas
00:57:10I'll call you
00:57:12Then you
00:57:23Okay, you can stop
00:57:28You've done enough
00:57:29Tomorrow's Christmas Eve
00:57:31I want it all to be perfect for you
00:57:33You know you act like you like doing this?
00:57:37I do
00:57:38Is that completely crazy?
00:57:39Yes
00:57:39Now
00:57:41Come on
00:57:43Come have some of this
00:57:45No
00:57:46I really shouldn't
00:57:47Three different kinds of chocolate
00:57:49Okay
00:57:50If you insist
00:57:51Oh
00:57:57Well uh
00:57:58It's a sickness
00:57:59I know
00:58:00Yeah
00:58:00Thank you
00:58:04I don't know how you do this
00:58:07Oh it's just an old family recipe
00:58:09I mean running this place single-handedly
00:58:11Even before you broke your ankle
00:58:13How do you do it alone?
00:58:16Can I tell you a secret?
00:58:17Mm-hmm
00:58:17I didn't break my ankle horseback riding
00:58:21No
00:58:22That's just what I've been saying
00:58:24I did it walking down the stairs
00:58:28Holding laundry
00:58:29While on the phone
00:58:31With a prospective guest
00:58:32So you know it's too much
00:58:35Yeah
00:58:35I just didn't know what to do about it
00:58:38Or
00:58:38How to ask for help
00:58:41Ken was right
00:58:44Okay
00:58:47Can I be completely inappropriate?
00:58:49Mm-hmm
00:58:49Ken likes you
00:58:51Oh
00:58:51I know
00:58:52I've known since high school
00:58:54Well do you like him back?
00:58:56I do
00:58:57Then what's the problem?
00:59:00What if he uproots his life
00:59:02And then it doesn't work out?
00:59:04No
00:59:05I'd rather just bury myself
00:59:07In so much work
00:59:07That I couldn't possibly
00:59:08Be open to a relationship
00:59:10And
00:59:10That way it won't happen
00:59:12And no one gets hurt
00:59:13Or
00:59:16Bury yourself
00:59:17In caring for your child
00:59:19Scout's been very sick
00:59:23The last two years
00:59:24He's better now
00:59:25I
00:59:26Think I've used it as an excuse
00:59:29To not
00:59:29Join the world
00:59:31And the truth is
00:59:31I'm starting to feel
00:59:33That there is a bigger picture for me
00:59:35And I
00:59:36I just don't know
00:59:38How to get at it
00:59:39You know
00:59:39Maybe you're just looking at this
00:59:41The wrong way
00:59:42You're not a nurse
00:59:44You're a caretaker
00:59:46I mean just look what you've done around here
00:59:49It's
00:59:49It's not a job to you
00:59:51It's who you are
00:59:52You
00:59:54You're a caretaker
00:59:56Okay
00:59:57Okay
00:59:59You wanna have a cup of tea?
01:00:01Sure
01:00:02Good
01:00:02Hey buddy
01:00:21Let me talk to you for a minute
01:00:23What do you think
01:00:25If maybe I didn't look for another healthcare job?
01:00:30What kind of job would you get?
01:00:31Maybe something completely different
01:00:34Maybe something not in Minneapolis
01:00:38Do you think you would miss the city if that happened?
01:00:41Can we move here?
01:00:43Is that what you want?
01:00:44If I could live at a place like this
01:00:46I wouldn't miss Minneapolis at all
01:00:48Okay
01:00:50Oh hey
01:00:57Ken
01:00:58Yeah

01:01:45Will make you happy
01:01:47Alright so you wanted to put all these drawings together for your mom
01:02:02Right?
01:02:03So I did a few more
01:02:05But um
01:02:06You know what they need
01:02:07Captions?
01:02:08You wouldn't happen to know any good writers would you?
01:02:25Scout loves his mom
01:02:27Sure does
01:02:28Perfect
01:02:29I was thinking about doing a back page
01:02:32That says Merry Christmas
01:02:34What do you think?
01:02:36I think
01:02:37Eh
01:02:40What?

01:03:03If this is gonna be our rink
01:03:05Your rink?
01:03:06Mom's taking a job here at Bramble House
01:03:08No I never said that
01:03:11Well what about all those questions?
01:03:13Moving out of Minneapolis?

01:03:19Well
01:03:19What if this is where I'm supposed to be?

01:03:54Because otherwise I'll never keep up with that kid
01:03:57Well then I guess I'll just have to stay
01:04:00I'll keep up with it

01:04:27What are you doing here?
01:04:32Me?
01:04:33You're the one who's off on some sort of family adventure with the woman who stole from our father
01:04:37She didn't steal from us, I told you
01:04:39Mom
01:04:41I got here just in the nick of time, didn't I?
01:04:45What?
01:04:45Okay
01:04:45Would you stop?
01:04:47What are you gonna do?
01:04:49I'm going to do what you couldn't do
01:04:51Confront her
01:04:52Okay
01:04:52Please
01:04:53Just
01:04:54Stop
01:04:55Listen
01:04:55I have feelings for this person
01:05:00No
01:05:00Okay
01:05:01I know
01:05:01But please
01:05:02Really
01:05:02I think
01:05:03That I could
01:05:04Okay
01:05:07What if you're wrong?
01:05:08Huh?
01:05:09Well then why don't we just tell her the truth?
01:05:11And see what she says
01:05:13What?
01:05:13That I came here to find out if she stole from us
01:05:15That I've been lying to her
01:05:16She trusts me now
01:05:19She's opened up to me
01:05:21I've
01:05:21I've opened up to her
01:05:24And
01:05:24Except for the fact, Finn
01:05:28That you've been lying about who you are this whole time
01:05:32Look
01:05:34We have a week
01:05:36And then we will never be able to contest this again
01:05:39If you let this go
01:05:41You will regret it
01:05:43Okay, fine
01:05:48But
01:05:48But
01:05:49Just let me do it
01:05:50In my own way
01:05:52On my own time
01:05:52Alright?
01:05:53And then we will both get our answers
01:05:55What are we buying?
01:05:58Well, we made so many new friends this week
01:06:00I didn't even think to pack gifts
01:06:02So
01:06:02Something for
01:06:03Mabel
01:06:04And
01:06:05Sage
01:06:06And Savannah
01:06:06And Finn
01:06:07And Ken
01:06:08What?
01:06:10We're gonna get something for Santa?
01:06:12I bet no one else thinks of that
01:06:13I think you're right
01:06:14So which one should we work on first?
01:06:17Finn's
01:06:17Okay
01:06:18Then let's do Mabel's
01:06:20And then Ken's and Sage's
01:06:21And then Ken's and Sage's
01:06:22Hey there
01:06:23Hi
01:06:23I need to see you back at Rambo House
01:06:25Well, I figured you would be busy with your sister
01:06:28Oh yeah, she's just resting back in her room
01:06:30I thought you were going to Seattle to see her for Christmas
01:06:33Well, I was
01:06:35And then there's just a little change in plans
01:06:37Because you wanted to stay here with us longer?
01:06:42Um
01:06:42There is a display I wanted to go look at in the store
01:06:45Can I see it?
01:06:47Uh, sure
01:06:48Okay
01:06:49Hey, is everything okay?
01:06:54Oh yeah, I just, um
01:06:55I just really enjoyed our time together, Willa
01:06:59Yeah, me too
01:07:01And I don't want it to end
01:07:02I mean
01:07:04If you felt the same way too
01:07:07I do
01:07:07And I don't really know what that would look like
01:07:12Or how that would work
01:07:14But if you would want to, if we could
01:07:17Make, you know, I can work from anywhere
01:07:19Not that I'm
01:07:20Um
01:07:21Uh
01:07:22Later, can we, uh
01:07:23Meet up in the library?
01:07:25Sure
01:07:25Yeah
01:07:26Yeah
01:07:26There's a poster with Ken on it
01:07:28In the store window
01:07:29No
01:07:29Really?
01:07:30What are you two?
01:07:33We should get back and get ready
01:07:35Ready for what?
01:07:37I don't know
01:07:37Oh
01:07:37All right, I won't ask you any questions
01:07:40Move along
01:07:40Come in
01:07:46Well?
01:07:51I started the ball rolling
01:07:53What does that mean?
01:07:57Wow, you didn't say anything
01:07:59Finn
01:08:00I'm gonna tell her
01:08:01Just
01:08:02After this thing tonight
01:08:03Okay?
01:08:05Just
01:08:05Let me get through this
01:08:07Before
01:08:08Before she hates me
01:08:10And never wants to speak to me again
01:08:12Why don't you come with me?
01:08:16Meet Willa
01:08:16Talk to her
01:08:17Talk to Scout
01:08:17I think you'll see what I see
01:08:19I
01:08:21You threw the papers out?
01:08:31You better tell her
01:08:32Tonight
01:08:33Because if you don't
01:08:35I will
01:08:37Did you know
01:08:48That this book
01:08:48The Night Before Christmas
01:08:50Was a gift from the writer
01:08:51To his daughter?
01:08:52After we read the poem
01:08:54We'll celebrate the holiday
01:08:55With homemade Christmas cooking
01:08:58And there's one more
01:09:02Extra special treat
01:09:04We have with us tonight
01:09:05The illustrator
01:09:06From the Everyday Sam books
01:09:08Mr. Finn Knightley
01:09:11How do we get started?
01:09:16It was the night before Christmas
01:09:17When all through the house
01:09:19Not a creature was stern
01:09:20Not even
01:09:21A mouse
01:09:23So I think what Everyday Sam shows us
01:09:27Is that
01:09:28Any kid
01:09:29Can be a hero
01:09:31In their own life
01:09:32And right here in Bramble
01:09:33I met
01:09:35A hero
01:09:36Of my own
01:09:37And his name is
01:09:38Scout Fairchild
01:09:39Scout
01:09:40Can you stand up please?
01:09:46Scout here
01:09:47Has a very special gift
01:09:49That he would like to share
01:09:50With us tonight
01:09:51And
01:09:52It is his very
01:09:54First
01:09:55Book
01:09:57I had a great time
01:09:58In Bramble this week
01:09:59Because my mom
01:10:00Brought me here
01:10:01So
01:10:02Merry Christmas mom
01:10:03You're the best
01:10:04What is this?
01:10:14Oh
01:10:14Best Christmas ever
01:10:31Sure
01:10:36Thank you
01:10:37There you go
01:10:48Get your milk
01:10:49There you are
01:10:54You make a good team
01:10:57We do
01:10:58Maybe I could
01:11:02Help you clean up
01:11:03Maybe I'd be okay with that
01:11:06Really
01:11:08Maybe I should have said that
01:11:11A long time ago
01:11:12Well better late than never
01:11:15And afterwards
01:11:17All these kids came up to me
01:11:19To see Finn's drawings
01:11:20Can you believe it?
01:11:21I saw that
01:11:22It was an incredible gift
01:11:24And now it is time
01:11:25To go straight to bed
01:11:26It's Christmas Eve
01:11:28Can I open one present?
01:11:30No
01:11:30Because you had a big night
01:11:32And because Santa still has to come
01:11:33Real Santa?
01:11:34Real Santa
01:11:35Excuse me
01:11:40Go ahead
01:11:41Go get your seat brushed
01:11:42Okay
01:11:42Okay
01:11:43Hello
01:11:44We didn't get to officially meet earlier
01:11:47And your brother has been so kind to me and my son
01:11:49I'm Willa Fairchild
01:11:51I know who you are
01:11:53My full name is Molly Conrad
01:11:55And Finn's full name
01:11:57Is Gregory Finnegan Conrad Jr
01:12:00Nightly's just his professional name
01:12:04We're both great Conrad's children
01:12:07So you're Molly
01:12:15And Finn is Greg Jr
01:12:17Well
01:12:19Why wouldn't you tell me that?
01:12:21Because he wanted to find out the truth
01:12:23About what you did to our father
01:12:24What I did to him?
01:12:27Conning him
01:12:27Into leaving you $100,000
01:12:29You think I conned him?
01:12:35Finn thinks I conned him?
01:12:37He had a lawyer draw up an injunction to file against you
01:12:40No
01:12:43Finn wouldn't
01:12:44Molly
01:12:45Stop
01:12:46Willa
01:12:48Did you do this?
01:12:51No
01:12:51Molly
01:12:52You thought I stole from you?
01:12:53So you came here to
01:12:54To
01:12:55To what?
01:12:56To get close to me?
01:12:57And then
01:12:58No
01:12:58I told Molly
01:13:00That you didn't do anything wrong
01:13:01I understand that now
01:13:03Now?
01:13:06So it's true
01:13:07You came here to expose me
01:13:10As a
01:13:10As a fraud
01:13:12As a fake
01:13:12No
01:13:13Okay
01:13:15It started like that
01:13:16But after
01:13:17It started like that
01:13:18What about Scout?
01:13:24You would do this to a nine-year-old?
01:13:26Of course not
01:13:27Look
01:13:27Let me explain
01:13:28You know what?
01:13:29I am sorry
01:13:30To disappoint you both
01:13:33But I am not interested in your money
01:13:35Okay?
01:13:37You can keep it
01:13:38What?
01:13:38If you want to know what I did
01:13:40I listened to him
01:13:41Everything
01:13:44That he did
01:13:45From
01:13:46Staying away after he left your mother
01:13:48To
01:13:48Keeping the ornaments
01:13:50That you made for him
01:13:51He did because he loved you
01:13:53And
01:13:53Maybe he made a mistake
01:13:55But he loved you both
01:13:56So much
01:13:58And that's the truth
01:14:00Excuse me
01:14:03Wait
01:14:03Goodbye Finn
01:14:04So congratulations
01:14:10You got what you wanted
01:14:12Finn
01:14:15I
01:14:15There she is
01:14:32Willa
01:14:34Mabel
01:14:34Me first
01:14:35I just want to be clear
01:14:38I really do want you to come and work with me here
01:14:42I admit that I
01:14:44I just can't do this by myself
01:14:46And you're exactly the
01:14:47Oh no
01:14:49I take it all back
01:14:51If it's going to make you cry
01:14:52No that's not what's making me cry
01:14:54Well then what is?
01:14:57It's how badly I want to say yes to your offer
01:15:00And how sad I am to tell you
01:15:04That Scout and I are leaving
01:15:05Right now
01:15:07Tonight
01:15:08I'm so sorry
01:15:10What happened?
01:15:13Christmas snow falls on our co-toes
01:15:23And our love grows
01:15:25And this is how business snow falls on our co-toes
01:15:38And our love grows
01:15:41Oh hi there
01:15:45What can I do for you?
01:15:49My father lived here for a short while
01:15:51Your father?
01:15:53Greg Conrad
01:15:54We used to play together
01:15:56We used to play together
01:15:56We used to play together
01:15:56We spent Christmas's here
01:15:58In fact
01:15:59Don't
01:16:00Don't go away
01:16:01One minute
01:16:01There he is
01:16:08There he is
01:16:09Greg Conrad
01:16:13That is just unbelievable
01:16:15Whatever happened to him
01:16:16Any chance he's going to be coming here to meet with you and Finn?
01:16:19Uh
01:16:21No
01:16:23He passed away
01:16:26A few weeks ago
01:16:28Oh I am so sorry
01:16:29Thank you
01:16:32You just never picture your parent being a kid at Christmas
01:16:39Is that why you came here?
01:16:42I came
01:16:43I think Finn and I came
01:16:46I'm sorry
01:16:51Can I borrow this please?
01:16:53Yes
01:16:53Thank you
01:16:55Is there anything else I can do?
01:16:59I need to find Willa
01:17:01Yeah
01:17:05I can't believe that's Dan
01:17:12He looks so happy
01:17:13Yeah
01:17:13That's why he wanted Willa to come here
01:17:15He wanted to give her and her son
01:17:18A Christmas memory like he had
01:17:20And that's why he saved those ornaments
01:17:25Because that was his last Christmas with us too
01:17:28I was just so mad at everything I thought I had lost
01:17:33Willa and Scout
01:17:35They brought dad back to me
01:17:39After you left I got so angry
01:17:43But it is not their fault
01:17:46No it's no one's fault
01:17:47Finn
01:17:51Willa and Scout left for the airport
01:17:53I don't understand
01:17:55I don't understand
01:17:55Why did we have to leave?
01:17:57I told you already
01:17:59Scout
01:17:59It just
01:18:00It didn't work out at Bramble House
01:18:03But it's Christmas
01:18:04We didn't even get to say goodbye

01:18:08I'm sorry baby
01:18:08I'm really sorry
01:18:09Mom please stop

01:18:17Okay

01:18:22So what's your plan?
01:18:30I'm going to stop her playing

01:18:54Please
01:18:57Just hear me out
01:18:58I'm begging you
01:19:00Look
01:19:04Willa
01:19:04I made a terrible mistake
01:19:06So please
01:19:07Don't blame him
01:19:09For what I did
01:19:10You hear him out
01:19:11Hi
01:19:17My name is Molly
01:19:18I'm Finn's older sister
01:19:19Will you show me the Christmas tree?
01:19:21Mmhmm
01:19:21Go ahead
01:19:24I did everything wrong
01:19:32I should have told you the truth
01:19:36From the beginning
01:19:37But you have to believe me
01:19:38The only lie I really told you
01:19:40Was why I came to Bramble
01:19:41Everything else
01:19:42This
01:19:42Was real
01:19:44I trusted you
01:19:47I know
01:19:47I hadn't done that with it anymore
01:19:50I was just so blinded
01:19:53By what had happened
01:19:54And I couldn't see through it
01:19:55But you opened my eyes
01:19:57And
01:19:57If nothing
01:19:59Comes
01:20:00From this
01:20:01I will always be grateful
01:20:03To you for that
01:20:04Wait
01:20:05But Willa
01:20:07Let me make it up to you
01:20:10Let me make this
01:20:12The best Christmas for you ever
01:20:13For you and Scout
