[Cadence] All right. Let's
see what's on tap for today.

Oh! Ah! Lucky girl.

Turkey and cheese, cucumbers,
pretzels and grapes.

Mom? Can I have
a cream cheese

and strawberry jelly
sandwich instead?

Ummm...

You mean, Saturday's
'weekend celebration'

cream cheese and
jelly sandwich?

That's the one.

Sure. Yeah.

I can just switch the
two, so you'll just have

Saturday's lunch today and
today's lunch on Saturday.

And I really don't need
to re‐label the bag

because that
would be crazy.

Thank you Mommy!
You're the bestest.

EVENT: CHRISTMAS PLAY
PARENT VOLUNTEER MEETING

Oh! We got to
get a move on.

I need to get to the school
for the first meeting for

the Christmas play,
before I head to work.

Time to organize
and prioritize.

Mom, I think
you'll do great.

You look like the most
beautiful elf mommy ever.

A beautiful
elf mommy?

I'll take it!

This year our theme
is the Elf Express:

The North Pole
Gift Train.

And we're focusing on
the magic of community

during this
holiday season.

On behalf of Redbird
Falls Elementary

we are so grateful to you
parents for volunteering.

[Henry]
Excuse me, sorry.

Sorry. So sorry I'm late.

It's okay.

We've divided you up into
pairs according to skill sets

in order to achieve the
best results possible

on this short timeline.

Oh, she means business.

I'm trying to...

All right. Sorry.

Bonnie and Eric,
you're doing costumes.

Bailey and Jeff, you're on
ticket sales and refreshments.

And Cadence...

You're doing backdrops and set
design with Henry Harrison.

[Ms Lynda]
Let's get to it!

All right.
Cadence, huh?

Yeah.

Well, nice to
meet you, partner!

Hey. Henry, right?

‐Yeah.
‐Great.

So. Elf Village.

I already have
some ideas brewing.

Great! Me too.

[Henry]
Oh boy.

Your brew is farther
along than mine.

Okay. So if you
look at Section A

on the diagram right here,
the entrance to the elf train

will be stage left.

Ah...

So...

Center stage will be
where all the elves

are packaging the toys.

So we'll need approximately
five feet of scaffolding

just to set up
all of the props.

Then over here above
where the train is

we will have
the Elf Village.

As you can see
here on Section C.

Now access will be pretty
tight for the kids,

but I think with rehearsal
and proper blocking

it should just
work perfectly.

What do you think?

I, umm...

Oh and this is my
checklist, right here.

Did you want me to
print a copy for you?

Did I miss a meeting?

No.

Did I miss like
ten meetings?

When did you do
this blueprint?

I mean it's even
color‐coded.

Well, I, ah, I helped out
with the play last year,

and I got a little
sneak peak at the theme

from Ms Lynda last week.
So I just dove right in.

I see that.

‐Good job.
‐Thank you!

Is there anything better
than a good checklist?

You know, actually, what's
better than a good checklist

is checking things off.

I mean, right?

Hey, I got an idea.

How about we just feel
out the space. Huh?

Feel it out?

Yeah. Just, kind of,
listen to the space.

See what it wants
us to do with it.

Okay.

This space seems shy.

[laughs]

I don't know.

Okay.

I'm just saying that maybe we
should brainstorm some ideas.

Together.

Ah. Yeah, yeah okay.

I mean, we could
definitely like...

Add that to the list.

Brainstorming.

I, I am flexible. So...

Yeah, I see that.

Hey, what's your kid's name?

Mary. She's seven.

Yours?

Ruthie. She's six.

Very excited to be an elf.

Yeah, so is Mary.

Looks like we both
have elves for kids.

Yeah. Yeah, so,
you know what?

This is the space
that our elves

are going to help
out the big guy.

Yes. Yes.

And an Elf Village is
built on community.

And so is an elf
train, for that matter.

A community that's filled with
the Christmas spirit and magic.

Yeah. Yeah.

Joy!

Joy.

The foundation is joy!

A railway built on the
joy of Christmas. Huh?

You know.

Joy. Joy sounds great.

We just need to make
sure that the joy isn't

too expensive for our budget
and fits within our timeline.

[Cadence's cell phone rings]

Oh, you know, I
have to take this.

Sorry, just give me one sec.

Avery. Hi.

Hi, Cadence.

I just wanted to see if we
could move up our meeting to

eleven o'clock today,
instead of next week.

Umm, yeah. Absolutely.

Yeah, that works.

Oh, and my mom is
going to be joining us.

Millie? That's great.

I haven't seen
her in a while.

Is everything okay?

Oh, absolutely!

We just wanted to talk about
all the wedding plans and

make sure we're all
on the same page.

It's getting really close!

Yes, it is.

The wedding countdown
has officially started.

All right. I'm just
going to wrap up here

and I will see
you at eleven.

Okay.

Okay. I'm sorry about that.

No worries.
Congratulations.

Huh?

Your wedding.

My...? Oh.

No, I plan weddings.

I love weddings.

I even had a wedding but he
was less into the idea of

"forever" than I was.

But I love creating
the wedding experience

for other people.

You get all the joy without
any of the possible conflict

or potential heartache.

Well, not all marriages
have conflict.

Heartache's a
different story.

Did you want me to leave my
notes for you to review?

No, I'm, I'm good, I'm good.

All right. Great.

You know what would
go great for the play?

A sleigh.

A sleigh?

Yeah. What better to
bring joy and magic

at Christmas than a sleigh.

We can put it
right over here.

Um. I, I wish we could,

but we're not really budgeted
for a "magical" sleigh.

Oh come on.
It'll be great!

Do you happen to have any
extra sleighs lying around?

As a matter of fact, I do.

I have a few at
the warehouse.

And I have no problem
letting Redbird Falls

Elementary Theater
department borrow one.

Sorry, warehouse?

What do you do, if you
don't mind my asking?

I work in Christmas.

I'm sure you have plans this
weekend, but if you wanna

stop by the warehouse
tomorrow morning, you could

look at the sleighs, see
if there's one you like.

Hey. Bring Mary, your elf.

I bet she loves Christmas.

I'm pretty sure all little
kids love Christmas.

It's the most
special, hope‐filled,

magical time of year.

Um, yeah. Okay.

I can come by early.
I'll bring Mary.

And some coffee for
you and your wife.

No wife.
Just me and Ruthie.

Oh, I'm sorry I didn't...

Don't worry about it.
Coffee sounds great.

Great. Great.

I will see you tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

After the vows are
exchanged overlooking

the majestic and
serene waterfront,

your guests will be escorted
to the champagne fountain

on their way to the
reception ballroom,

where you will be introduced
for the first time

as Mr. And Mrs. Laurel.

The Lakeview
Lodge is elegant.

It is majestic.
It's perfect.

Just like your
wedding will be.

Amazing!
I love it!

Cadence, how did you
get so good at this?

I mean, you were always
great at planning

our college events, but this
is a whole different level!

I just, I love it.

Seriously, when we got
engaged, I didn't even tell

them we were friends, and
every vendor I talked to

said you were the best
wedding planner in the state.

Really?

Give me their names
and addresses.

I'm going to be sending them

flowers and chocolates
immediately.

She's right, Cadence.

You have really
found your calling.

And I love that the two
of you are reconnecting

through this wedding.

Yes, I know.

I always want to come
through for my clients,

but this one is special.

You two deserve it.

You've always been
the real deal.

Cadence, this is
all unbelievable.

If you can pull
this off...

"If, if..."
isn't a problem.

But "when" might be.
Right, Avery?

I know this is already a really
quick turn around with us

wanting our wedding date the
Saturday after Christmas.

But it's a good thing
that we already booked

the Lakeview Lodge
for that weekend.

Because everything else is
going to fall into place.

Don't worry.

Well, Sam and I talked more,
and we both knew if we

didn't get married
on Christmas Eve,

we'd regret it for the
rest of our lives together.

We know that's
highly improbable,

but we just needed to see
if it might be possible.

If anyone could
do it, it's you.

Cadence, my husband and I
just want Avery and Sam's

dream wedding to
become a reality.

You're up for it.
Right Cadence?

Absolutely!

Consider your Christmas
Eve wedding taken care of.

[Lex]
Come on. They're here.

[Lex and Henry]
Let's go.

[Kim]
How did you do this?

It's even more beautiful
than we discussed!

Ah. Thanks, Kim.

[Twinkle laughs]

Wait til you see
when we power it up.

[Kids]
Twinkle!

Hey. Now, this is where
I need you guys.

Do you think
you can help us?

[Kids together]
Yes!

So we're going to countdown...


And you're going
to plug it in

and your yard is going to
come to life. All right?

[Lex] Do you guys think
you can do that for us.

[Kids together]
Yes!

[Lex]
All right. Let's go.

[Henry]
You take that. You take that.

[Lex]
Here we go.

[All together]
Three, two, one...

Magic!

[bells ringing]

[electricity crackling]

[laughter]

[creaking]

[train bell ringing]

It's amazing!

Hey kids, I want you to
check out your tree house.

Because a little elf may or
may not have turned it into

a Christmas gift factory.

And there might be some
hidden candy canes in there.

Go! Run!

[everyone laughs]

Ah, thank you.

[Cadence] Don't run off, Mary.
Wait for me.

I can't mom!
This is too exciting!

The North Pole is next door!

Hi Mrs Donaldson!

Where are Toby and Adelaide?

They're in the tree
house out back.

Thanks! Love what you've
done with the place.

[Cadence]
Kim!

Hey Cadence!

Hi! This is amazing!
How did you...

Cadence!

Henry!

Did you do all this?

Yeah. Me and my family, yeah.

[Cadence]
Wow!

I'm going to go
check on the kids.

‐Okay.
‐I'll be right back.

This is my mother.

Hello. I'm Twinkle.

Oh, that's... I love that name.
Twinkle.

Well my father, my dad, thought
I had a twinkle in my eye

from the day
that I was born.

And this is my brother, Lex.

Hi. It's nice to meet you.

Hi.

Cadence and I,
we're, we're working

on the school
play together.

Oh, oh. That's,
that's wonderful.

Yeah, so far so good.

I mean, it's
nothing like this.

What do I need to do to make
this happen for the play?

To make this happen?

Well you need somebody
who is a genius

with electricity, a
consummate professional,

who lives and
breathes organization.

But I'm booked.

Henry's not bad with
a paintbrush, though.

I'm organized.
Don't worry, I'm organized.

It's all about balance, Lex.

It is.

It's been so nice to
meet you, Cadence,

but I have to
finish packing up.

I'll go with you.
I'll help you.

Great.

I'm excited to see the
warehouse tomorrow.

Oh!

Henry invited you
to the warehouse?

Yeah for the...

To check out the props for
the Christmas play that...

‐That we're doing.
‐That we're doing.

‐Uh huh.
‐Yeah.

Oh.

‐We should go.
‐Okay.

‐Let's go Mom.
‐All right.

Bye.

They're amazing.

Yeah, they are.

A little nosy, but
they're amazing.

If you want to check out the
North Pole, it's this way.

Ah, you know what.

I would really love to but I
have to get Mary to bed,

so I should probably go.

Yeah. And I have to pick
up Ruthie from the sitter.

But, I'll see you at the
warehouse bright and early.

You know...

It's pretty cool.

What is?

The whole time that
I was working here,

you were right
next door.

It's like a sign.

A sign?

We're going to
make a great team.

Like, it was meant to be.

Okay.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Looking forward to it.

[Cadence]
Mary! Come on. We got to go.

All right.

I got the mouse, I got the
fox, and I got the green guy

who wants to
steal Christmas.

Green guy, please.

Of course.

All right.
Scooch over.

Mom, what's your favorite
part of Christmas?

You are.

Mom! I'm serious.

So am I!

Mom. What gives you
Christmasbumps?

Christmasbumps?

I think you mean
goose bumps?

[Mary giggles]

Goose bumps, hey.

‐No?
‐No.

No, goose bumps are regular.

Christmasbumps are goose
bumps you get from something

Christmas‐sy and magical.

Ruthie told me about them.

Well, I can't wait to see
you up on that stage as an elf.

I get Christmasbumps
just thinking about it.

[Mary giggles]

All right. Let's read,
little lady.

Green guy stealing
Christmas.

Let's go.

No Christmasbumps tonight.

Ruthie, are we in
a ponytail mood

or a pigtail mood?

Side pony, please.

Okay for you, anything.

This batch is a
little less b*rned,

but who doesn't like a little
char on their flapjacks, huh?

Me!

I don't.

Hey! Just put a little
extra syrup on it.

You won't know
the difference.

Hey Ruthie, guess who's
coming by the warehouse today?

Your friend Mary from
school and her mommy.

Wow! Mary is
such a good elf.

I should prepare!

Dad, can you make
two p b and j's?

One for me and one for Mary.

And put on grape
jelly please.

And spread it to the edges.
You know, like mom used to.

You bet, Ruthie Ruthie
Snaggletoothie.

[door opens and closes]

[Ruthie]
Hi Uncle Lex!

[Lex]
Well good morning family!

Who let this Christmas
elf in here? Mowah!

Hello, relief pitcher!

‐Good morning.
‐Good morning.

[Henry]
Are you hungry?

No.

Hey!

Well we've got a big
week ahead of us, boys.

Okay. Pancakes and
business and...

a sandwich to
stress over now.

[giggles]

The Donaldson family
loves our North Pole.

And, what's up next,

the Bryan family wants
the Candyland theme.

‐Hmm.
‐Awesome!

‐We're on it.
‐Yeah.

And?

Yeah, and?

No.

I'm sorry guys, nothing
yet on the Sutton House.

But she's having a
Garden Club later today.

And she's having
it at her house.

So I'm going to send
in some feelers.

I'm going to
try to find out

if she wants to go
ahead with this.

Yeah, we just really
need this Sutton gig.

I mean that would make
Twinkle All The Way

the go‐to decorating company
for the whole tri‐state area.

[Henry] I just want to get
my hands on that yard.

Can you imagine what we
could do with that space?

It would be the most amazing
Christmas spectacle ever.

Daddy, are you excited for
doing the play with me?

I am so excited
to make you

the most authentic
elf village ever.

♪

[knocking at door]

Oh. Hello!

We brought coffee because
it's the nice thing to do.

Oh Mary!

Oh well, thank you.

No, it is a nice
thing to do.

Mary! Hi!
We made p b and j snacks!

Yay!

[Mary]
I love p b and j's.

Peppermint mocha?

Yay!

Mary, why don't you let
your parents check out

the sleighs and we can
go to candy cane forest,

through tinsel
tunnel, up the stairs

and have some more p b & j's.
What do you think?

[together]
Yeah!

Okay, let's go!

All right.

Let's go find a sleigh.

Okay, which one
do you like best?

Let's see.

Got the tape measure, huh?

Yeah.

[Henry]
All right.

Okay. That's good.

Okay, let's see. This one.

Uh huh.

That one's
probably the same.

Yeah. Just need
to check on here.

Yeah. I think they're all
going to fit in that alcove.

The question is which
is the right one.

This one is very elegant,
conveying an understated yet

classic theme to
our Christmas.

Rockwell, if you will.

I will.

And this one is more
sleek and vibrant,

a bit more modern,
if you will.

I will.

And this one is just
like a child's dream,

it's colorful
and playful.

It's...

More fun.

Okay! This is the one.

Oh no.
No no no no no.

I haven't made
a decision yet.

Tell you what.

How about you see...

If it feels right?

Feels right?

Okay.

Where did you
get this sleigh?

Where did you get all of
this stuff, actually?

My brother and I, we've been
collecting Christmas items

since we were little.

And it's all
because of our mom.

Lex, Twinkle and I, we've
been decorating houses

for Christmas since
I can remember.

She made it into an official
business a few years ago.

Wait. So you do Christmas
all year round?

No. No I wish.

I'm a painter.

I actually paint
houses by day,

but I've been creating
art my whole life.

It helps out with the props.

Yeah, I bet.

How do Lex and Twinkle
fit into the whole thing?

Lex is an electrician, Twinkle
she does the accounting.

But when our forces combine...!

[they both laugh]

You sound like a great team.

I'm pretty lucky to
have the family I do.

You know, when my wife
passed away, Lex and Twinkle,

they just put everything
aside and made sure that

Ruthie and I got
back on our feet.

I'm so sorry.

Yeah, my wife, she was
the one who had the whole

parenting thing down.

I had no idea how
hard it was until...

Well until she was gone.

I just want to make sure
that Ruthie doesn't feel

like she's missing anything.

[choir of sleigh bells]

Is that the doorbell?

No.

That's, that's the
business phone.

[laughing]
Of course it is.

Hey, sorry about all that.

What, no.
Are you kidding?

I know all about
being a single parent.

It's no joke.

Well, I think this
is the sleigh.

Are you sure you don't mind?

I'll drop it off in
a couple of days.

Great. The alcove
is accounted for.

So, that was Sue
Sutton on the phone.

Yeah. I heard the
tolling of the bells.

I guess I'm not going to
have to follow up with her

at the Garden Club.

Oh no.

She's in!

‐What?
‐Yes!

Yeah!

All right!

Wow! Congratulations.
Who is Sue Sutton?

Oh, she is an icon,
a huge socialite.

Her family owns Redbird
Falls Chronicle.

This is the biggest
get of our company.

Okay. She wants you and
Lex to go over there today

after the Garden Club
so that you can,

you know, discuss
everything.

So, I'm going to call Lex
so guys can prepare. Okay.

Okay, miss ma'am, I think
it's time for us to go

finish our errands
for the day.

We'll walk you out.

Great.

[Henry]
Okay.

[Lex]
Ready?

[Henry]
All right.

Yeah.

[knocking at door]

[indistinct talking
in background]

Hi!

You must be Twinkle's boys
I've heard so much about!

Come in and warm up.

Thank you.

Millie is just wrapping up.
Take off your coats.

[indistinct talking
in background]

But an angel inspired her to
gather some weeds from the

roadside and bring them and
put them in front of the

church's altar.

And that is the story on
how poinsettias became

associated with Christmas.

[polite clapping]

Thank you so much
for having us.

Your home is stunning.

[Sue] Oh, thank you.
Please have a seat.

It's such a pleasure
to meet you.

And you.

Listen, your mother talks
about you two all the time,

I really feel like
I already know you.

All good things I hope.

Great things.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have
handed over my party to you.

[Lex laughs nervously]

I've overseen and planned
every last detail of every

Christmas Eve Party we've ever
had for the last 30 years.

Last year our theme was
Twelve Days of Christmas and

although it was fabulous there
was just something missing.

No shortage of poinsettias,
I'm sure. Ha ha.

Because all
the poinsettias...

Go on.

I decided that it would
be smart to outsource

the decorations
and spectacle.

I want my guests to
experience something

completely unexpected.

Hmm. Well, we are definitely the
company to help you with that.

Yeah.

I feel like you are also.

And we are going to find
out sooner than later.

[nervous laughter]

You know, my husband
and I invite nearly

all of Redbird Falls.

And we usually have quite
the guest list, so if you

two play your cards right,
this could be a great

opportunity for a
company such as yours.

Well. We will not
let you down.

No.

So we'll do 20 rounds
of 10, crystal stemware,

overflowing floral
centerpieces,

delicate little tea
lights on every table.

Have you chosen the color
for your linens yet?

Oh, I think Cadence
said they were cream.

Right, Cadence?

Well, the lodge
offers white or cream.

So it's up to you.

Thank you.

I just want to make sure all the
details are perfect for Avery.

Mom, it will be beautiful.

We both know Cadence
has it all figured out.

Plus, I keep telling you,
Sam and I don't care about

all that little stuff.

This room will
be breathtaking,

and most importantly, it
will be filled with love.

Let me show you
what I have planned

for the cake‐cutting.
Come on.

So, after we pass the champagne
fountain, and the stage.

This will be the center
piece of the room.

[Cadence]
Now just imagine.

Your gorgeous
four‐tiered wedding cake

framed by this perfect view
while the snow falls gently

behind you on
the lake.

[Cadence] Now that is something
your guests won't forget.

I love the idea of me and
Sam cutting our wedding cake

with this background.

It really
sounds like you

put it all together
perfectly, Cadence.

How do you do it?

I just organize
and prioritize.

[cell phone rings]

[Cadence chuckles]

You miss me already?

[Avery] This wedding is
going to be amazing.

We're only six miles out
of town and it feels like

we are on another continent.

I love this lodge
and I love you.

I love you too.

Okay, look. We got to
decorate this bridge.

It is the only way in
and out of the lodge,

so let's make it sparkle.

I am picturing a horse‐mounted
greeter. What do you think?

[Avery]
Ahhh! You think of everything.

Good morning, Cadence.

Hey, where do you
want this thing?

Yeah. Yes.

We just need to make sure that
the caterers are there by three.

No later.

Hey Cadence, this
thing weighs a ton.

Great.

Yeah, great because it's
sturdy, but really,

it's super heavy.

Here. You know what?

Just put it down up here.

To the right.

Here here here.

I'll go find out.

Yes that's exactly
what we talked about.

I just wanted to
make sure that...

[Cadence]
Uh huh. That should be fine.

Hey Cadence.

Woo!

Sorry! I'm...

Yeah, it, it's just paint.

No no. That sorry was
for somebody else.

Actually...

Thank you. Yes.
Thank you so much.

I'm looking forward to
seeing your revised proposal.

Thank you. Thank you.

Hi!

I'm sorry guys. I didn't
see you or hear you come in.

[Lex]
No worries.

It was worth it to
watch you paint Henry.

Listen. I will you now
with our creative genius

for a couple of hours, but
Henry, we really need

to get to work on those crystal
reindeer for the Sutton House.

Do they have to be crystal?

Henry!

Got it.
Crystal it is.

I'll see you soon.

Have fun.

Should we get started?

Painting? You bet.

I took the liberty of
picking out some paint colors

I thought would work really
well for the Elf Village.

And I also sharpened a bunch
of pencils so you could

sketch it out before
you start painting.

Before we start painting.

Ha. No. No no no.

I'm good with priming,
I'm good with designing.

I am not an artist.

I don't believe you.

So what did you have in
mind for the corner,

right over there?

I had that designated
as a forest area.

So I was thinking
trees and some snow...

[Henry]
That's perfect.

Go ahead. Get started.

No, I told you I can't.

I told you you can.

It's just paint.

If you screw it up,
we'll do it over.

No I really can't.

We don't have time or the
budget to just do it over.

Okay. Hold this.

Okay.

Whaaaat are you...

You are going to
practice on this.

You want me to paint
on your shirt again?

It's just an old flannel.

Plus, you put a perfect
swipe of snow on there.

Just build off of that.

I don't even...

Well here.
Let me help you.

Hold this like that.

Well, hello there,
perfect little evergreen.

You're a natural.

Try on your own.

Well watch out
Henry Harrison.

There's a new
artist in town.

Yeah, there is.

I should start painting
before every wedding I plan.

Pretty stressed out?

I don't know what
possessed me

to agree to a wedding
on Christmas Eve.

A wedding on Christmas Eve?

Yeah. Of all nights.

Love and Christmas
on the same night?

Does it get more
magical than that?

I guess that's one
way to look at it.

Okay Picasso.

Come here. Time for the
real deal. Come here.

[Cadence]
Ah, okay.

Do like some
little branches.

Okay.

[Twinkle]
I love Danny's cooking.

It's delish.

I am stuffed, Danny.
What's your secret?

He's married to me.

[everyone chuckles]

I'm cooking next time.
Pasghetti and jelly beans.

Are you kidding me?

That is my
absolute favorite.

[Lex] I will bring
the jelly beans.

[Twinkle]
All right.

I'm going to help
Ruthie with her books.

Come on. Let's go.

Give me a kiss.

Mowah!

I love you daddy.

I love you too honey.
Go get ready for bed.

I'll be up to
read in a minute.

Okay.

[Twinkle]
Let's go little girl.

So Henry, how's the
school play going?

It's great.

But they paired
me with this mom

who has these charts and
blueprints and graphs.

Lex tells me her
name is Cadence.

And apparently she
is quite stunning.

You have to agree, Henry?

Yeah.

She's great, but she's just
so, umm...

Polar opposite of you.

Yes. She is polar
opposite of me, Danny.

But we've been
having fun with it.

Listen, Henry.

You're such a great dad.

And I know for a fact that
Melissa would be just so,

so proud of you.

Thank you, Lex.

[Lex] Listen losing her
was a blow to all of us.

But since then, you've
just been running around,

taking care of everybody
else except yourself.

So if you are starting to feel a
spark again for somebody new.

Which is
totally normal.

[Lex] Which is why I want you
to know that that's okay.

Come on, Henry, you,
more than anybody,

deserve to feel that
kind of love again.

Listen, I won the
lottery with Melissa.

How many people get to
win the lottery once,

let alone twice
in their life?

Besides, I got my
hands full anyway.

I've got the Sutton gig,
I got the Christmas show...

As your business partner,
I am telling you

it's okay to play
the lottery again.

Isn't it worth
taking a risk?

Yeah, you can't win
if you don't play.

And Cadence is just so
organized. And sweet.

She's sweet.

So I guess I'm saying, as
your brother, go for it.

Be brave, Henry.

And as your
business partner?

The Sutton House better
be the talk of the town.

[chuckles]

[Ms Lynda]
Okay, big smiles everyone.

I want all my elves to
bring Mr and Mrs Claus

over to the sleigh.

And whoever has a present,
drop it off here.

And then for the choir finale,
I want us to go upstage.

Perfect.

Everyone except for Mary and
Ruthie who will be downstage.

And this is when the
music will begin.

And the cue for the music
is Mary's line to Ruthie.

Tomorrow is the big night
and it's all coming together!

[Ms Lynda]
Okay.

Ruthie?

All of the elves know now...

Umm...

The true meaning of...

Christmas. Uh...

[Ms Lynda]
Thanks to...

Oh right. You.

Okay, now Mary's line.

Don't thank me! We're all part
of the same elf team!

What if I forget all my elf
lines tomorrow at the real play?

I might freeze when all those
people are in their seats.

You won't!

It could be a
Christmas disaster.

You know what, Ruthie, as
someone whose entire job it is

to prevent little
disasters, I am telling you,

you are going to be great.

I will?

Yeah. Have you been
practicing your lines?

Every single night!

And have you been
practicing your moves?

Yeah. In front of my mirror!

We'll see. You're
going to be great.

And honey, if you ever
forget your lines,

you can always look for Ms Lynda
or find me in the audience,

and we'll help you
find your way.

Yeah. I can always
ask for help.

That's right.

Hey Ruthie.

You want to have a hot
chocolate playdate tonight?

Do I? Yes!

Daddy, please can I have a hot
chocolate playdate? Please!

Well, I'm okay with it but
we'll have to ask Mary's mom.

[Mary]
Mom, please.

I really need to have a hot
chocolate playdate with Ruthie!

Please!

Maybe we think
about another night?

[both girls together]
Tonight!

I guess we're
doing it tonight.

Tonight.

Yay!

Yay!

[Cadence] Well, welcome

Mom, can I go show
Ruthie my room?

Yeah. Go ahead.

[Mary]
Come on Ruthie.

Bye daddy.

We'll let you know when
the hot chocolate's ready.

Come on in.

All right.

Wow, I love the place.

Thank you.

What is that?

Oh. Um...

It's nothing, really.
It's just, ah...

It's nothing. Nothing.

You know, why don't
you just open it.

That's for me?

Yeah it's for you.

I know you said you
didn't really paint,

so I thought your first
landscape should be

acknowledged and preserved.

Henry, this is, this
is so thoughtful.

I love it.

Really?

Yeah.

Good.

I ummm...

I also ran by the store and
grabbed some hot chocolate

just in case you
didn't have any.

Great. Is this
your favorite kind?

Well, it's okay
for store bought,

but it's not
homemade or anything.

The last time my parents
came to visit, my mom

brought me her old recipe
book, which has this

incredible recipe for
homemade hot chocolate.

I haven't made it
since I was a kid,

but I do remember
it being this like...

Creamy, dreamy,
Christmas delicacy.

Let's do the creamy
dreamy one. [laughs]

Okay.

Yes, here it is.

Did I just hear
that box jingle?

Yeah, yeah.

My mom gave me this whole
box of Christmas stuff

from when I was little.

[bells jingle]

My mom and I used to go to
these antique shops and

collect these little bells.

Cadence, you have been
holding out on me.

These are awesome.

I forgot about them
until right now.

We can use them for
the play if you want.

I don't know how, but...

Leave it to me.
I'll figure it out.

[bells jingle]

Okay, hot chocolate.

Yeah, hot chocolate.

Whoa! Sorry.

I got a little
chocolate on your list.

I know how you
love those things.

I really do.
I can't help it.

When my ex left I just felt so
overwhelmed with everything.

I started scheduling
every detail of my life

just to stay
on top of it.

My mantra has become
"organize and prioritize".

Organize and prioritize.

Being a single mom,
running my own company,

just juggling all these
balls, it's exhausting.

But I find that these
schedules and lists just

help me be the best
I can be for Mary.

I totally get it.

One of the most important
things that I've learned is that

sometimes asking for
help isn't a weakness.

Sometimes it's the
strongest thing you can do.

Maybe I'll have
to work on that.

You have given me a lot to
think about, Henry Harrison.

Henry.

Yeah?

I think, ah, I think the hot
chocolate is ready. So...

We should call
the elves down.

Yeah, we should go get them.

Hey girls, hot
chocolate's ready.

[Mary]
We need seven more minutes!

Why?

[Ruthie] We're making a surprise
for you and daddy!

Okay.

Seven minutes it is.

Seven minutes.

Do you think we could
make it to the North Pole

and back in seven minutes?

What?

You know, the tree
house toy factory thing

that I didn't get to
see the other day.

Ken basically invited the
whole neighborhood over.

Whenever. So is
that enough time?

Clock's ticking.

[Cadence] This really is
incredible.

And look at all your detail.

The look on your face
is why I do this.

To bring people back to when
they were a kid at Christmas

when anything is possible.

You know, I'm kind of like
that with my weddings too.

I want all of my
clients to truly feel

like anything is possible.

And I do love it when they
see it all come together,

knowing that I've helped
make their dream a reality.

‐Right?
‐Yeah.

This is incredible.

You designed this?

Yeah. Well, me and
a couple of elves.

Okay. This is how it works.

Okay.

You are going to pull
the candy cane lever.

And then a box is
going to just drop

right into that
Santa bag.

Uh huh.

It's going to down
through my toy factory

and out is going to pop a
perfectly wrapped present.

[Cadence] Do you want
me to try right now?

‐Yeah.
‐Okay. All right.

What?

Ha!

Okay the kids
must love this.

I love this.

See.

At no matter what age you
are it makes you feel

that magic deep inside.

It gives that feeling...

Oh, how do I explain it?

Like Christmasbumps.

Yeah.

Christmasbumps.

You know they're contagious?

Are they now?

[both girls together]
We're ready!

[Ruthie]
Come on you two!

We should probably
get back in there.

We've got a surprise
waiting for us.

Yeah.

It's very quiet.

I'm a little nervous.

[knocking]

Girls?

We're outside the door.
We got the goods.

We're ready to come in!

[Cadence]
Oh hi.

Hi.

Daddy, we're going to do
our reveal thing, okay?

Cadence, I want you to say
three, two, one, Magic!

And then you can open
the door. Got it?

Got it.

‐Ready?
‐Yes.

[all together]
Three, two, one, Magic!

Oh my gosh!
I can't believe it.

Girls! This is amazing.
I love it!

Oh wow.

When do I get to move into
this magical Christmas fort?

Right now! Quick, get
inside the Christmas igloo.

A snowstorm is about
to start. Quick!

Oh no!

Mom, bring the
hot chocolate!

Okay.

Let's go.

‐Quick everyone!
‐Scoot over.

Take a sip of your
magical hot cocoa

to protect you from the
cold. And the storm.

Ah...

This is the best hot
chocolate I've ever, ever...

Ever!

[Henry] Ever...
‐Ever.

Ever tasted!

It's just how I
remembered it.

It's like a creamy, dreamy,
Christmas delicacy. [laughs]

It is. I told you.

[Ruthie]
I made that.

[Mary]
I helped Ruthie do it.

[Cadence]
You did?

[Ruthie] I didn't
know how to do it,

because I can't
use scissors.

Man, that yard is a lot
bigger than I remember.

Really? I thought
it was smaller.

Okay. So.

Wait a sec.
Henry...

I think you put the
light tunnel where

the ice skating rink
is supposed to go.

No I didn't.

Did I?

We've already ordered the
materials for the light tunnel.

If we measured
the wrong area,

we might not have
enough to complete it.

Wait, we're just going
to have to order more.

The light tunnel is supposed to
go from here to the fountain.

Yeah but what about
the snowflake forest?

That's supposed to go right
next to the fountain too.

Okay.
Totally my screw up.

Okay, we're just going to have
to figure out what to move...

Oh hi Mrs Sutton!

Hey boys.

I figured I would
come by and share

two of the newest RSVP's
we just received.

‐Oh good.
‐Okay.

Who's that?

The Mayor and his wife.

And our Redbird Falls
Chronicle has just

said that they are
considering this party for

the cover of their Annual
Christmas Day social edition.

Wooo, wooo, woo.

Ah man.

Right! What if we
make the cover?

What if?

Wow. I can't wait
to tell Twinkle.

She's going to be so
thrilled that so many people

are going to see Twinkle
All the Way's work.

Absolutely. And keep
up the great work.

I can't wait to see
how this all looks!

We can't either.
[both fake laughs]

We have to figure this out.

Grab the blueprints.

I'll get the tape measure
and we will make this right.

Okay. Okay.

[knocking]

Come in.

Good morning, Twinkle.

Good morning, Cadence!

To what do I owe the
pleasure of this visit?

Henry left his scarf
at my house last night.

I figured I'd just
drop it off for him.

Or, ah...

Oh that's so sweet.

Come sit down.

Well, I...

Oh, come on,
come on, come on.

Just for a minute.

Okay.

[bells jingle]

I'm hearing a jingling
following you.

Just tell me you're
hearing that too?

Yes, I am.

I also brought these
bells that Henry thought

he could use
for the show.

Oh...

So...

How was last night?

It was amazing, actually.

I found my mom's old recipe
for homemade hot chocolate,

which was...

How was the playdate?

That was amazing too.

The girls get along so well.

And it was just nice to have
some adult conversation

that didn't revolve
around wedding planning.

I'm glad to hear that.

Henry rarely connects
with other parents.

Really?

Yeah. Some people find his
exuberance overwhelming.

That's my favorite
part about him.

I mean, I don't know him
that well but I just,

I find his joy to be
pretty contagious.

So do I.

Oh!

I didn't offer you anything.

How about a glass of water,
or how about a cup of coffee?

From one single
mother to another,

I know the value of
a good cup of coffee.

Sure. I'd love a cup.

Okay. Okay. Great.

Whoo!

Woo!
[glasses smash]

Oh Twinkle!
Are you okay?

Yes, I'm okay.

Oh!

Okay, all right.
Let's take a seat.

I don't feel well.

I'm going to get you
some help here, okay?

I feel very dizzy...

Here Twinkle. This will
make you feel better.

No. No no no no no.
No!

I'll do it. Thanks.

Really?

Henry. Please.

There are twenty‐something's
that get dehydrated too.

It's not a thing.

I can go back to work.

No. Not so fast.
You have to rest.

Mom... No more
warehouse for a while,

no more stressing out
about anything. Okay?

You must really
mean business

if you're
calling me Mom.

Well, I'm serious.

I'm telling you. I love
you both, but I'm fine.

Really.

I'm just glad
you were there.

Are you kidding me?
So am I.

It'll take a lot more than
this to slow her down.

[everyone chuckles]

Hello, Twinkle.

‐Oh!
‐Hello doc.

Hi.

I'm happy to say, I'm
sending you home.

Ah! See!

So she's okay?

She'll be just fine.

Plenty of fluids
and plenty of rest

for the next
couple of days.

Doc, I think I
know the answer,

but any chance that she
can go to a play tonight?

I wouldn't push
it for tonight.

But she's fine to rest
at home by herself

for a few hours.

Oh guys.
I'm sorry.

This is terrible timing.

No, nonsense.

Hey, they can
make a recording

and you can
watch it later.

I'm not just talking
about Ruthie's show.

Oh, the Sutton house.

Lex and I, we have
that under control.

We were over there today,
measuring and prepping.

It's going to be great.
It's perfect.

Yeah. Totally.
You can rest easy Twinkle.

Well, I'm going
to get going.

I'll walk you out.
Just let me talk to the doc.

Come here.
My hero in heels.

Please, stop.

No really Cadence.
Thank you. Thank you.

It's really funny how a cup
of coffee can turn into this.

It was unexpected.
That's for sure

Yeah.
Sometimes it's bad.

Sometimes it's good.

It's the unexpected
that makes life great.

I will see you soon.

And raincheck on that
coffee date? Please.

Yes, absolutely.

‐Rest well.
‐I will.

[Lex]
But Henry, come on.

We just need to
focus right now.

Especially with
Twinkle healing,

you and I, we
have to step up.

We haven't given
the Sutton House

the attention that it needs.

And there is just so
much riding on this,

we have to get
our act together.

Today was my fault.

We can't afford a
mistake like that again.

[Lex] Look, I went into the
office to get Twinkle's things,

and the accounting
book was open, and...

We just need to make sure
that this party is perfect

so we can get the word out.

I know. I know. We will.

I just need to, um...

I just need to
organize and prioritize.

I promise. No more hot
chocolate playdates.

That is not what I
mean, Henry. Come on.

Sorry to interrupt.

Ah, Henry this is yours.

Oh, thanks.

I got to go.

Maybe I'll see you tonight.

Maybe?

Hold on. Wait up.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

I'm not getting the
"everything's okay" vibe.

Henry, I've been
having a great time

getting to know
you and Ruthie.

Same.

But I just got so much
going on right now.

But so do I, but I want
to make room for this.

I know. I wish we could.

I wish we had time.

We'll make time.

Look, I know you think
there's something magical

about love and
Christmas together.

But I don't know if I'm
even the kind of person

who gets Christmasbumps!

For me, love has just
always been more work,

more things for me to
check off my list.

Your list?

My plate.

I'm just used to doing
things on my own.

Okay?

But you don't have to
do things on your own.

I can help you
with your list.

[Cadence's phone rings]
Sorry. I have to take this.

I'll see you tonight.

Hey Avery! Hi.

[applause]

There she is.

All the elves know now

the true meaning of
Christmas, thanks to you.

Don't thank me! We're all part
of the same elf team!

You've got to see this.

It's snowing!

Big, fluffy snowflakes are
pouring out of the sky.

Like... a lot!

Oh no. This is awful.

Call Lakeview Lodge!

[phone keeps ringing]

Mom?

Why is snow bad?

Huh?

[phone keeps ringing]

No! No. It's not bad.

It's not bad not when it's
not a blizzard and not the

same day as the most important
wedding of my career!

[answering machine] Lakeview
Lodge. We're not here...

This is bad.

[phone rings]

Avery! Hi!

Cadence, I'm freaking out.

Don't worry! Don't worry.
It's going to be fine.

Hey, remember that time in
college when we thought

the English building was locked
and we weren't going to be able

to turn in our
final exams on time?

Yes. Why?

Well, we did.
And it was fine.

And we were just
worrying over nothing.

This is probably
the same thing.

But there's already four
feet of snow on the ground.

And they're saying
it's gonna snow

nonstop all day
and all night.

Avery, Avery.

You are getting married
today. I promise you.

I'm still at home.

My wedding dress and
makeup are in the car.

Sam is waiting on my word.

I mean, we're
literally ready to go.

What if they close the
bridge to Lakeview Lodge?

I am going to make sure
that they don't do that!

I'm heading there right now.
Okay, just stay put.

I'm on it!

How about we head over to
Kim's and see if she could

start watching you a little
earlier than we thought.

I get to go to
the North Pole?

‐Count me in!
‐Let's go!

[truck door opens and closes]

[Cadence]
Excuse me!

Excuse me sir.

This bridge, it can't close!

I'm sorry, miss.

The bridge isn't safe, and the
weather isn't getting better.

But I'm hosting a wedding
at the lodge tonight.

Please. So much is
riding on this wedding.

I made a promise.

Please don't make me
break that promise.

The city is closing
the lodge as well.

What?

I'm sorry but the storm is just
too much and it's not safe.

Merry Christmas.

[truck door opens and closes]

[tires spinning]

No!

[tires spinning]

Ah! You've got to
be kidding me!

[phone rings]

Avery. Hi.

[Avery]
Well?

It's closed. Both the
bridge and the lodge.

And for the literal
icing on the cake,

I am stuck on the
side of the road.

[Avery]
What are we going to do?

Okay. Give me just a couple
of minutes for me to get

unstuck and I will
call you back. Okay?

[Lex]
Phew! Okay!

We are on schedule
and great for tonight!

Neither sleet, nor snow nor
blizzard will keep us from

making this the most
memorable Christmas Eve ever.

Sue's guests will not
believe their eyes.

If she has any guests.

I mean, this
weather is nasty,

and it's heading right for
the center of our town.

[Henry's phone rings]

Hi Cadence.

Hey. Um...

I was just wondering how
the Sutton house was going?

It's good. We're about
to head over now.

Great.

Yeah, we got some weather
but we're dealing with it.

I bet you're knee‐deep in your
wedding checklist about now?

Four feet deep actually.

Listen, I know
today is a huge day

for you and Twinkle
All The Way.

It is. I actually have to go
because we have to head out.

[Cadence]
Wait!

Life is full of so
many big moments,

and it might be nice to share
them with someone again.

[Cadence] And, um, I am stuck
on the side of the road

by the Lakeview
Lodge, so I just...

I thought that I would
share that with you.

Someone told me I should
ask for help more often.

So... here I am.

Lakeview Lodge.
I'll be right there.

Hey, I need the truck.

Are you kidding me?
We got to go set up.

It's Cadence.
She's in trouble.

I'll meet you at
the Sutton House.

Okay. All right.
You be careful.

Yeah.

Hey Ruthie!

I'll see you soon okay?

Go get her, dad!

I heard.

Well, what are we going
to do about the event?

Hang on.

Kim?

Yes, I will meet you and Mary
there. Thank you so much.

Well we can't cancel
and we can't reschedule.

What does
Twinkle think?

Avery?

Okay. Hey Lex,
Ruthie and Twinkle,

they're going to meet
us at the school.

Hang on a sec.

Sue Sutton and half
her guest list

are going to
be there too.

‐What?
‐I don't know.

You know what?

Just bring everything and
I'll meet you at the school.

I'll meet you
at the school.

I guess we're going
to the school.

I guess we're going
to the school.

[indistinct chattering]

[indistinct chattering]

[Cadence]
Avery.

I'm so sorry.

I don't know what to say.

We planned
for everything.

Just not a snow blizzard?

Yeah. Not a snow blizzard.

It's okay, Cadence.

I know. You're so
disappointed honey.

So am I.

You really did
plan a beautiful

Christmas Eve
wedding, Cadence.

Thank you.

[Avery] When this all clears
up, I'm going to marry you.

We waited this long, what's
a more few days, right?

The last time we were in
this gym, I was wearing a tux.

Sixth grade dance.

You were the only
boy in a tuxedo.

How could I not
fall for you.

[Cadence]
Wait, wait. Hang on.

I knew you guys met
in elementary school,

but I didn't know it was
this elementary school.

Yeah. We were
both in the band.

He asked me out by the
lockers in Red Hall.

Down that hallway to the
left, third row of lockers.

In those days, locker notes
were considered romantic.

[Cadence]
Sorry. Excuse me.

Can I talk to
you for a second?

Yeah.

[Cadence]
Okay.

So, you may have opened the
floodgates with the whole

"help" card because I'm about to
ask you for a whole lot more.

Okay. You really need
to get snow tires.

[Cadence chuckles]
Okay.

So. This might
sound crazy, but...

I really want to fulfill
my promise to Avery and Sam.

And if you help me, I think
we can still give them

an incredible
Christmas Eve wedding...

Right here.

Here?

Yeah. Well, in the
auditorium, to be exact.

The Christmas
sets are still up.

I think you got
to let this one go.

No. No no no no no no.

I can organize and prioritize
this wedding into existence.

I know I can.

But I cannot do
it without you.

I need your help
to make it special.

Okay, okay. I'm in.

Oh! Thank you!

Avery.

Do you have your dress?
And your make up?

In the car, why?

Hey guys.

I think we can make a
little Christmas magic

happen here tonight.

What do you mean?

Well, Cadence wants to
have the wedding here.

How?

With our help.

Sue, I know this
is a special night

for you and
your family.

But I think we can give you
a little taste of the event

that we had planned, and at the
same time, given this bride,

and all the people here,
especially your guests,

a Christmas event they
will never forget.

Well, I've certainly
never had a wedding

at one of my
Christmas events.

Henry, look at you.

Really elevating
a Sutton party.

[Cadence]
Avery's in.

So are we.

[Cadence]
Awesome, okay.

So the first thing we
need is an officiant.

Oh, not a problem.

I'm ordained.

[laughter]

Twinkle, what don't you do?

I would like to help.

My trunk is full
of poinsettias.

So is mine!

Amazing.

The Garden Club
is the real deal.

Yes it is.

Let's bring it in.
Let's bring it all in.

Let's see what Twinkle
All The Way can do.

What's better than love
and Christmas, right?

Okay, so where is
this happening?

[together]
The auditorium.

[Twinkle]
What about the power outage?

Well, the school is running
on generator power,

but I think I can try to
re‐route the power to there.

Where did you
park the truck?

I love you, mom.

I love you too.

Henry asked me to
hand these out.

He made sure everybody
knew to follow your cue.

My cue?

Yes.

You're the mother

You'll know when it's time.

Okay Avery.

This is your moment.
Are you ready?

‐Yeah.
‐Yeah.

Oh my goodness.

Tonight, we have all

To witness the love of

Life is never what

Can we all attest to that?

[Twinkle] Whether it's a
day of sunshine...

Where's Henry?

[whispering] Last I
saw he was backstage.

[Twinkle] Or you're waking
up to a snowstorm.

But you two can
weather everything

life brings your way,

There is something so
beautiful about the unexpected.

It's my view.

It's her view.

That was a nice touch.

That wasn't me.

Henry really outdid

Now, let's get
you two married.

[Twinkle] All right.
This is for you.

Thank you.

And this is for you.

Thank you.

Sam, do you take Avery as
your lawfully‐wedded wife,

in sickness and in health,
for richer or poorer,

in sunshine
or snowstorms.

[everyone chuckles]

As long as you
both shall live?

I do.

And do you, Avery...

I do.

Always.

Well, with the
power vested in me,

I now pronounce you
husband and wife.

You may kiss the bride.

Magic.
