02x06 - Twas the Fight Before Christmas - Part 2

[bunniefuu]

There's a new

fine dining restaurant.

I'll introduce you to the owner.

Looks like Danny got in a fight.

I had nothing to do

with Danny's death.

I just hope you didn't put

your trust in the wrong guy.

If all else fails,

I have programmed a k*ll switch.

Aaron,

what else haven't you told me?

This is Detective Wilner.

Anyone there?

Pick up, pick up,

pick up, pick

You've reached

Detective Sam Wilner.

Please leave me a message.

Just be patient, Emily.

Sam asked you to wait here.

So wait.

Yeah.

Not happening.

Sam?

Sam?

Sam?

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Hey, come on.

Sam, you okay?

What?

Hey!

Let us out!

The safety release is jammed.

We're trapped in here.

Oh, oh, oh, stop!

Easy, come on!

You're concussed.

My g*n is gone.

And my phone.

Okay, hang on.

I've got mine.

Ah

I don't

No signal.

I think the walls are too thick.

And what happened to the door?

The steel is dented.

Do you think

maybe this is why

Danny's knuckles

were all bruised?

'Cause if he got stuck in here

and tried to punch his way out?

It's possible.

And if he froze to death

in here,

that means someone

moved the body.

Nothing in the city

compares to Sue's apple pie.

I know, right?

Mmm.

How was skating?

Hmm?

Oh yeah.

Sorry I had

to rush off like that.

Well, you're here now.

You don't have any other

plans tonight, do you?

Nope.

Totally free.

Good.

'Cause I have an idea.

I propose a girls' night.

Just the two of us.

I'm booked into a suite

and you could stay over.

Can we order room service?

Of course.

And give each other manicures

and watch

old Christmas movies

I'm so down.

Great.

Just be sure

you let your dad know.

Good call.

The last time I came home

ten minutes late,

he'd already started

organizing a search party.

Sam!

Hey!

Hey, stop.

Stop. It's no use.

The door's jammed.

Well, on the bright side,

at least we have our coats.

Didn't help Danny.

Look, uh our best bet

is just to conserve our energy

and combine our body heat

to try to stay warm.

And, uh, you know, we just need

to survive till

someone finds us.

That could be a few hours.

At this temperature

We may not have

that kind of time.

What are you thinking about?

Violet.

And what an amazing person

she's grown into.

And how I would like to be there

to see her graduate.

You will be.

I hope so.

If not, she'll be okay.

She has her mom.

How did you two meet?

-Monica?

-Mm-hm.

She used to come here

with her family for the summers

when we were teenagers.

Once we got more serious,

I somehow convinced her to stay.

But she never stopped

being a city girl.

You never considered

moving to New York with her?

I've been here my whole life.

I don't know

if you've noticed about me,

but I'm not real big on change.

You hide it so well.

I think that's why I freaked out

when I found out

you weren't

who I thought you were.

I regret that.

If we're gonna start

comparing regrets,

I hope you have

nowhere to be tonight.

I also regret

not asking you on a date.

It's not too late.

Let's hope you're right.

It's a shame, isn't it?

Hm?

It took a life and death

situation

to bring us closer together.

So, what are my regrets?

If I had found the strength

to confide in Sam

instead of shutting him out,

how different would

this past year have been?

But trust is a delicate thing,

and I still haven't picked up

all the pieces

since the first time

I had it shattered.

Hi.

Hi?

Anything you want to tell me?

What do you mean?

Well, I was scanning

the computer logs,

and somebody

logged into my system

in the middle of the night.

Only you could have

cracked my password.

So what if I did?

We don't have any secrets,

right?

We tell each other everything.

-Absolutely.

-Yeah.

I, uh

I just wanted to make sure

that it was you.

Oh.

Is there something

you're looking for?

I guess I just wanted to prove

to myself that the doubts

in my mind were unfounded.

That you'd never do anything

to betray my faith in you.

Grace

Chimera is supposed to be

about exposing corruption

and redistributing wealth to

the victims of that corruption,

but you've been diverting

some of the money

to private offshore accounts.

You said it yourself

the walls, they're already

starting to close in.

We are criminals.

It doesn't matter how rosy

a picture you want to paint.

If we need to disappear,

we need a safety net.

That is all this is.

I love you.

I am trying

to protect our future.

And there's

there's nothing else

you've been keeping from me?

No, no.

Nothing.

I also found some communications

between you and other groups.

Some with ties to terrorism.

You've been helping

fund their activities.

They hurt people, Aaron.

Is that who you are?

You are not seeing

the whole picture.

-I'm not?!

-I need you to

Don't

What was that?

We're compromised.

Initiating k*ll switch.

Come on, come on, come on

Come on!

It's been disabled.

How is that even?

What did you do?

Police, freeze!

Everyone down on the floor!

-I didn't do anything!

-Now!

Down,

face down on the floor, now!

Nobody move!

Nobody move!

-Get off of me!

-Hands where I can see 'em!

We're missing one.

Got one in here!

Clear!

Alright.

Let's go.

Lock down the building!

We got a runner!

Grace.

What was that?

That's who I was before.

Grace.

Grace.

It suits you.

Is that all you have to say?

Well said.

Oh, I'm so tired.

Me too.

We have to stay awake.

No.

Hello?

I'm sorry,

should I come back later?

Violet's having a girls' night

with her mom.

She left me a message.

Oh, that's good.

She won't be worried

about where you are.

-You doin' okay?

-Hm.

Better now that

I can feel my toes again.

You?

I'll live.

Hey.

I, uh, made some tea.

Oh, thanks, Jason.

Not to sound ungrateful,

but what were you

doing here so late?

Well, I got a text

from an anonymous number

telling me to come.

When I got here,

I saw the broken bottle

and the wine trail

leading to the freezer.

You have no idea

who sent that text?

No, but I assume it was

whoever stole my equipment.

I thought maybe they felt bad

and left it here for me.

-Turns out I was half right.

-What do you mean?

Well, it's best

if I just show you.

Okay.

Whatever was in there

is gone now.

Don't look at me.

I didn't do it.

Sam, I think

we walked in on a robbery.

The door was unlocked

when we got here.

No sign of a break-in.

So, someone with a key?

Again, not me.

What why?

Hello?

Who is here?

Jean-Marc

I suggest you drop the act.

Excusez-moi?

We know you lied

about living in France.

In fact,

I'd bet my weight in shortbread

you've never even

been to France.

I drove through Montreal once.

Does that count?

Jean-Marc

or, as your

birth certificate reads,

John Marchetti.

I had it legally changed.

And so what if I never

worked in France?

What, you never lied

on a resume before?

The accent?

Well,

my great-grandmother was French.

I figured I was entitled.

I may have

faked my way in the door,

but I backed it up

with my skill.

And no one knew the truth?

I told Lauren.

I had to, once it got clear

that we were getting serious.

But Lauren made me promise

not to reveal the truth to Danny

until the restaurant

was up and running.

Ah, but he must have

suspected something.

That's why he called

the place in Paris

and discovered you were lying.

So that's why you

locked him in the freezer.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I left early that night.

And this is the first

that I'm hearing

that he even knew the truth.

Okay.

So maybe it was

Lauren, then.

After all, with Danny dead,

you two were free

to take your relationship

public.

No, no, no way.

No, Lauren wouldn't hurt Danny.

Look, if you're looking

to blame someone,

blame that contractor, Jason.

Why would you say that?

Those freezers, they have

a fail-safe handle built in,

specifically to make sure

no one gets trapped inside.

Now, the release handle

on our freezer is faulty.

So Jason kept promising

that he would send his guys

to fix it,

and it never got done.

It's pretty convenient

that he just happened to show up

to save you, don't you think?

He does have a point.

Jason was desperate to be paid.

Plus he also had

a bone to pick with Danny.

Yeah, but who didn't?

We have no shortage

of suspects with motive.

But still, to move

a frozen body from the freezer

all the way

out to the parking lot

would take a fair amount

of strength.

And Jason does have

the physicality for it.

Yeah.

So

where does this leave Ray?

He's not officially

off the hook,

but I see no reason

to detain him.

He's free to go home.

That is great news.

Although my cats

are really gonna miss him.

Plus my apartment's

never been so tidy.

Hey, listen, uh

about when we were,

uh, in the

freezer?

I said some things

Yeah.

I mean, we both did.

Not every day you share

a near-death experience.

No, but now that

we're alive and well

I, um

I had mentioned

one of my regrets

was not asking you

on a date and

Oh, oh!

Sam, no.

Um, it's okay.

I, uh you don't

have to explain. I get it.

We can just pretend

it didn't happen.

Yeah uh, yeah.

Yeah, I can do that.

Great.

It's settled, then.

Good, okay.

Glad we're in agreement.

Is this some kind of a joke?

I was asked

to drop off the invitation.

Nobody's forcing you to come.

What's goin' on?

I just received this invite

for the Christmas feast

at Coniferous tomorrow night.

You should go!

They're showing you respect

as a fellow restaurateur.

Or rubbing it in my face

that their place

is fancier than mine.

That's not what this is.

Emily, I'm happy

that I bumped into you

because we have

one for you, too.

-Thank you.

-Mm-hm.

Hope to see you there.

Gimme all the coffee, Sue.

It's been a long, cold night.

You got it.

Hey, Em.

Hey!

How was, uh

how was girls' night?

It started off pretty great,

and then the conversation

turned to college,

as it often does with my mom.

Wait, how did you

know about that?

Where's your mom?

She got a call from a client

and had to leave.

Not a moment too soon.

I needed a break.

That bad, huh?

I love her so much,

but I think being a lawyer

was something I wanted

to do for her, not for me.

I have other interests.

Maybe you should tell her that.

I just don't wanna

break her heart.

I thought he died outside,

and now you're telling me

he died in the freezer?

The medical examiner

confirmed it.

His blood was crystallized

to a degree that would require

temperatures much colder

than we experienced that night.

How did he get outside?

That's what

I'm trying to figure out.

What is it, Sam?

I just wasn't expecting

to see you here.

This isn't an interrogation.

And I'm here to make sure

it doesn't become one.

It's okay.

I want to help.

Someone went to a lot of trouble

to break into your safe

last night.

-I'm aware. I saw the damage.

-Was anything taken?

-You don't have to answer that.

-It's fine.

As a matter of fact,

the safe is empty

because I removed the contents

earlier in the day

after Monica

found the combination

amongst Danny's paperwork.

He hadn't given you

the combination?

I never asked for it.

And what'd you find

inside the safe?

$30,000 in cash.

Where'd it come from?

Your guess is as good as mine.

Danny was always making side

deals with would-be investors.

It's why I insisted

that I was the sole name

on all of the paperwork,

to protect us from Danny's

bad money management.

And do you have the money now?

No.

I paid Jason, our contractor,

to get the work done

in time for the Christmas feast.

Uh,

the freezer is a crime scene.

Under the circumstances,

I'm afraid you're gonna

have to postpone.

What's this?

I spoke to a judge.

He agreed there's no need

for a prolonged closure.

You have the rest of the day

for your forensic team

to finish their work,

but the restaurant will continue

with the feast as planned.

And that's why

I brought my lawyer.

Every Christmas ♪

We feel the love

from everyone ♪

Merry Christmas!

Ah! I can't believe the big day

is almost here!

You mean trivia night?

Yes.

Yes, I mean trivia night.

Yeah, I can almost taste

that prize money.

You might need to close up

a little early tomorrow, though.

-Oh, it's tomorrow?

-Yeah.

Why?

What's going on?

No, um, just something

unexpected came up.

But it's totally fine.

I won't go.

A Victorian Christmas feast?

This is your dream dinner.

You have to go.

What? No, no, no.

We are putting on our elf ears

and we are winning

that prize money, okay?

It's settled.

Hey, ladies!

You ready to get your elf on?

What can we do for you, Brooke?

Oh, I just came

to get your team name.

Oh, uh,

how about Team Mistletoe?

Wait, no, Emily.

When it comes to Christmas,

you truly know it all.

So how about

-The "Noel-it-alls."

-I love it!

It's a little on the nose,

but okay.

Quick question, if one of us

can't make it for some reason,

can the other person

still participate?

Vy, no, I'm gonna be there.

Come on.

Well, it's not a big deal.

We would just pair you up

with another single.

No elf left behind.

That's our motto.

Well,

I have to continue my rounds,

so I will see you both

at the diner.

-Bye.

-Hi, Sam.

Brooke.

He's doing that

hovering thing he does

when he wants

to talk to you privately.

Yeah, I noticed that.

Hey.

Everything okay?

Yeah, I was just at the diner.

Sue mentioned

you received an invitation

to the Christmas feast.

Yeah, the invite's for me

plus a guest,

but I have a previous

engagement, so

Any chance I could convince

you to change your mind?

Why?

What do you have in mind?

I looked into Jason.

Traffic cameras show him

arriving at the restaurant

after we were already

in the freezer.

So, he wasn't the one

who locked us in?

Doesn't mean he wasn't

working with a partner.

I had Monica

forward me the guest list.

Jason will be there, Ray too,

Lauren and Jean-Marc.

Hang on, are you proposing

a classic drawing-room mystery?

Not how I would frame it,

but yeah.

We can keep an eye on everyone,

see who interacts with who,

and maybe something will emerge.

I mean, you're right,

we do have to

we have to be there.

But I think I'm about to break

a little elf's heart.

I hate that

I had to cancel on Violet,

but I can't deny I'm looking

forward to this dinner.

It's like a Christmas-themed

m*rder mystery party.

Of course, there's a good

chance an actual k*ller

will be in attendance,

but you can't have everything.

I'm just glad I was able

to save Ray's bacon.

Helping people

is all I've ever wanted to do.

It was brave

tipping us off like that.

You have the agency's gratitude.

Did you find him?

No.

There was a system

of old tunnels

that ran under the building.

By the time we got down there,

he was long gone.

He didn't tell you

about his exit strategy?

No.

He's still out there, Grace,

and our intelligence suggests

that he's rebuilding Chimera.

No.

No, no,

he can't be allowed to do that.

That's why I need your help.

You know him better than anyone.

I'd like to make you

a one-time offer.

So, what do you say?

I've come a long way since then,

but I still miss

that naive little girl

with a computer and a dream.

Cheers.

Oh, thank you.

Ah.

-It's so beautiful.

-Yeah.

Kinda wish I was

bringing you here

under different circumstances.

What?

Like a date?

Sorry, I know you said

you wanted to forget

I brought it up.

What?

No.

No, I thought you were the one

who regretted bringing it up.

No, not at all.

I

I-I just couldn't

find the words.

Okay.

I'm listening.

All right, then.

Uh

In that case, let me ask you

if you would consider

Emily, Detective Wilner.

Welcome.

This is all so lovely.

Oh, your contribution to

the evening is so appreciated.

Enjoy yourselves.

So you were saying?

I was about to ask

if you would consider

Hello, there.

Oh, Ray!

Hi!

Good to see you.

If it weren't for you two,

I would be in a cell or worse

instead of drinking

champagne amongst friends.

Well, that could still change.

-I mean, Merry Christmas.

-Yeah.

Emily!

Ah! Sue!

I'm so glad you decided to come.

I wasn't sure I would,

but then I found out

it's an open bar.

Oh!

-Okay

-So, okay

-I wanted to as you

-Emily!

This is a surprise!

I thought you were doing

trivia night with Violet.

I was supposed to, but she

insisted I come here instead.

She wouldn't take no

for an answer.

So, she found another partner?

No, but Brooke will

make sure she finds one.

I'm sure she's gonna do great.

I'm sure.

Just gonna grab a drink.

-Okay.

-Mm-hm.

Emily, will you go

Welcome, everyone,

to Coniferous.

Let's all move into

the dining room.

Our first course

will be commencing shortly.

Welcome, elves!

Now, prick up

those pointy little ears

'cause we are going to start

in five minutes.

Brooke, I don't have a partner.

Where's Emily?

She couldn't make it.

No problem, we'll just

This is perfect!

You can pair up

with Betty Wasserman.

Now, don't let

her little nap fool you.

She is as sharp as a tack.

Violet doesn't need a partner.

She's already got one.

Mom?

That is,

if you'll still have me.

Of course.

Why didn't you ask me

to cover for Emily?

Honestly?

Because every time

we get together,

you only want to talk about

college and my future,

and I'm still

figuring things out.

Welcome, everyone,

to the first elf trivia night.

Now, let's get started

with an easy one, shall we?

Your first question is

What year was the first

Christmas tree put up

at Rockefeller Center

in New York City?

Oh, wow.

That was an easy one?

Everyone,

allow me to introduce you

to our head chef, Jean-Marc.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We hope you'll enjoy tonight's

traditional Victorian

Christmas feast,

which was at Danny's request.

A toast to Danny.

To Danny.

Please enjoy

your first course

A pot age à la reine

or white soup with truffle

and seared scallops.

Enjoy.

I swear the chef

used to be French.

What is the original

title of the poem

commonly known as "'Twas

the Night Before Christmas"?

Oh hey, oh hey ♪

Uh-huh, okay ♪

I can do this all day ♪

Sleigh my way ♪

Which US state is home

Sleigh my way ♪

Yes!

-I think that's crazy, but I

-Oh.

-Oh!

-I am so sorry.

No, no, it's totally fine.

Not a big deal.

Carrie, a word?

What?

Poor thing.

I hope she doesn't get fired.

That wouldn't make

for a very merry Christmas.

Notice any

suspicious activity yet?

Not really,

unless you count the fact

that Sue is somehow

still sitting upright.

May I have your attention,

please?

Tonight's main course

is a roast leg of reindeer

on a bed of snow peas

with garlic and ginger.

Did you say reindeer?

It's just a little Christmas

spin on roast venison.

Where's Carrie?

Unfortunately, she had

to call it a night early.

More wine, Detective?

Oh, I'm good, thank you.

The venison is locally sourced

from our very own woods.

Then you gotta

watch out for buckshot.

Assuming you can tell

the lead from the meat.

Should we compare it

to the meat that you serve

at the diner, which I have

to assume comes from a can?

I'll have you know

that Danny was a big fan

of my all-day pot roast.

Well,

I'm sure it took him all day

to eat that

overcooked meat brick.

Now I know how

he chipped his tooth.

How do you know about that?

-Excuse me?

-The tooth.

We never made

that information public.

And you said you didn't see

Danny the night

he got in the fight with Ray.

I should, um

should go check

on the dessert course.

Excuse me.

I got this.

Aah!

Hey, Jean-Marc!

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

There's nowhere to go.

I just wanna talk.

I got nothing to say to you!

What are you doing back here?

You asked for proof,

so I brought it.

Just hear me out.

You have two minutes,

in my office.

Sam's not back yet?

Uh, maybe I'll just

go check on him.

It's over.

I didn't k*ll Danny!

Then tell me what happened.

He confronted me

about my lie.

Oh!

What happened to your tooth?

Never mind that.

I just got off the phone with

the owner of Auberge Antoinette.

You never set foot

in that kitchen.

You're a fraud!

I'm gonna get some ice

for my face,

and then you and I

are gonna have a little chat.

Lauren had already

left for the night

and I didn't want

to talk to Danny

without her to back me up,

so I left.

And you didn't see him again?

Not until the next morning.

I showed up with Lauren,

prepared to face Danny's wrath,

and instead, we found him

dead in the freezer.

You moved the body.

Why?

Our restaurant wouldn't have

survived if word got out

that a man was found dead

in our kitchen.

So you took him to the edge

of the property line,

implicating Ray in the process.

I just thought that it would

look like Danny passed out

and died of exposure.

I was just trying to help

Lauren succeed.

I would be more inclined

to believe you

without that knife in your hand.

I shouldn't have run.

I just panicked.

All right, elves,

the results are in.

We have a two-way tie

for first place.

"Sleigh My Name,

Sleigh My Name"

and "The Noel-it-Alls"!

Yes! We're still in this!

The first team

to shout out the correct answer

to the following question

wins it all.

On December 16th, 1965,

astronauts Tom Stafford

and Wally Schirra

snuck a harmonica and bells

on board the Gemini 6 shuttle

to play what

Christmas carol in space?

I know this one.

What was it?

Come on, brain.

Oh, "Jingle Bells."

That's it!

The Noel-it-Alls

are your winner!

You did it!

We did it!

And I'll never complain about

Emily's taste in music again.

Let's get some snacks.

Yes, please.

I should wait

for Sam to get back,

but whatever is going on

between Lauren and Carrie

appears to have

reached its boiling point.

Carrie left her backpack.

Oh, Danny, what did you do?

No, I-I

I won't do it!

Sorry to bother you, Lauren.

The crowd's getting

Nice g*n.

I think it belongs

to a friend of mine.

You and your cop friend

showed up

at the worst possible time.

So you tried to k*ll us.

I just needed you both

out of the way

while I cut into the safe.

You were too late.

Lauren had already used

that money to pay Jason back.

That was my nest egg!

Hey, hey! I saw the contract

Danny gave you.

You have every right

to be angry.

You thought he was making you

part-owner in the restaurant.

$100,000!

Danny promised that my buy-in

would be paid back over time.

If you were gonna be part-owner,

then why take the role

of sommelier?

Danny said that he couldn't

tell Lauren the truth

until after the place opened,

and I wanted to be here.

That that contract

is not legally binding.

Danny has no ownership stakes.

It's it's all in my name.

Well, not for long!

Sign the papers, now!

Hey, hey, hey!

So, that's

that's what this is?

I just want what I was promised.

When I found out

what Danny had done,

I gave him a chance to fix it.

So you locked him

in the freezer.

You k*lled Danny?

I didn't plan to!

But I was angry!

Hey

Hello?

You stole my life savings!

-Come on.

-How could you do that?

Look, I know I made a mistake,

but I'm making it right,

I swear.

No more lies!

Carrie, let me out!

Carrie!

Let me out!

Let me out!

I think he was

telling the truth.

What are you talking about?

Danny asked Ray for a loan.

That's what

they were fighting about.

The money Ray wired him,

along with the money

that was in that safe,

it is everything he owed you.

You're lying.

How how would you

even know that?

I know enough to make sure

that you go down

for Danny's death.

I guess you're right.

Come on.

Unless you're not there

to share it.

Are you sure

you're prepared to use that?

You think I don't know

my way around a firearm?

I've worked in restaurants

my whole life,

from the mess hall

to fine dining.

You're military.

Former reserves.

But I picked up a few things.

Lauren, no!

-Big mistake.

-Not my first.

Augh!

Well, that doesn't seem fair.

Aww.

-Augh!

-Aah!

Emily?

She k*lled Danny.

I never liked her.

I guess this means

we're not getting dessert?

So what should

we do with the prize money?

I was hoping to add my share

to my travel fund,

along with the rest

of my Mistletoe earnings.

Travel fund?

Is someone planning a trip?

It's not for sure yet,

but I thought I might backpack

through Europe this summer.

Spend a few months

going through

A few months?

I mean, that's cutting it close,

isn't it?

College starts in the fall,

and

I don't want to go to college.

What?

At least

not until I figure out

what I want to do with my life.

Oh

I don't understand.

We always talked

about law school.

'Cause I wanted

to make you proud.

But

I don't want that.

Congratulations, ladies.

Grand prize.

Who wants it?

Thank you.

Betty!

Hon, this isn't a hotel.

Let's get you home to bed, okay?

Sorry.

I know you're disappointed.

No, sweetie, I am proud of you.

Really?

You're right.

I made this about me.

I'm just sorry

that I made you feel like

you couldn't be honest with me.

For the travel fund.

College will be there

when you get back.

Thank you, Mom.

Come here.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Oh, Dad, Emily!

We won!

-Yeah!

-What?

See, you didn't

need me after all!

You couldn't be more wrong.

Uh, I need to pack.

Mom and I are leaving

in the morning.

-I'll give her a ride.

-Oh, thank you.

I'll be home soon. I want to

give you your Christmas present

-before you go.

-There's no hurry.

-Merry Christmas, Emily.

-Merry Christmas, Violet.

Merry Christmas, you two.

That was an eventful evening,

huh?

Yeah.

We didn't even get to enjoy

the main course.

Um

Maybe when things settle down,

we can revisit that question

you kept trying to ask me?

I have a better idea.

Yeah, I know it's not

the most memorable first date,

but I'm glad you said yes.

I'm glad you finally asked.

It's perfect.

You impress me.

Oh?

How so?

I told you my real name,

and you didn't ask

a single follow-up question.

-Oh, I wanted to so bad.

-Okay.

Go ahead.

You sure?

I think I finally am.

Okay.

Uh, I'll give you an easy one.

Okay, please.

You were a cop, right?

Oh, so close.

Intelligence.

Oh.

That actually explains a lot.

How did you end up here?

There was a person that I'd

been hunting for a long time.

And some intel

came into my possession

that I was sure was solid

but it was a trap,

and I walked my team

right into it.

As far as the world

is concerned,

Grace died that day.

I'm sorry.

I was given the chance

at a quiet, unassuming life

with a new name

and a fresh start,

and I took it.

Well, I'm glad you did.

But you are really bad at

the quiet and unassuming part.

Yeah, I know.

It's so much harder

than I thought it would be.

Thank you.

For letting me in.

I can't wait

I'm still nervous about

sharing parts of my past

that I'd rather

bury away in a dark hole

and never think about again.

But for some reason

I can't stop smiling.

Come on up.

What took you so long?

Merry Christmas, Grace.

You look pretty good

for a dead woman.
