Holiday Proposal Plan, The (2023)

Post by bunniefuu »

Morning.

Sonny, my star writer-editor.

Here, a triple-sh*t espresso

with a splash of peppermint

for my world traveler.

Morning, Genevieve.

What is it you want

that I'm going to say no to?

Aw! What makes you say

it's a no?

Because you never bring me

coffee unless you're gonna ask

me to do something

I really don't want to do.

That's not true.

Costa Rica

during hurricane season.

You promised me no tropical

storms and I got stuck in one.

Or how about the Alaskan cruise

you made me go on

when I told you

I get seasick easily

and you claimed Alaskan cruises

are so much smoother?

They usually are.

Listen, I just want to reward

you, all you've done this year

with your bestie's

Gals Gone Global Travel show

has tripled female subscribers.

And the Christmas in Cabo trip

you two took

last year, it's still a hit.

Sonny, they're all in a rush

to offer

all the ladies activities

that you inspired.

Wow! That's amazing!

You know, I honestly,

I never thought so many women

would wanna be traveling

together over the holidays.

A-are you kidding? Daughters

and moms are booking like crazy.

Oh, and we're even

helping sponsor

a widows' group retreat.

Plus, they're all

using the hashtag

that you used on that trip, ha!

Really? I mean,

that was such a silly hashtag.

Who cares? It stuck!

And now the resorts are calling,

asking how they can partner

for other

seasonal-themed stays, too.

Not to mention, the Gals Gone

Global network exec called

and they wanna know

how they can team up again ASAP.

Between our magazine

and their network,

we have something here.

And we wanna keep it going.

So here's a little something

to aid in that.

- A bonus?

- An incentive to stay.

Partially paid for

by our new subscribers.

This is so amazing. Thank you.

- I know. You're welcome.

- But wait.

Is there an ulterior need here?

Look, I know that you said

you wanted to go home

for the holidays this year.

And you said I wouldn't

have to work. You swore.

You have

all these new subscribers,

and they are your new fans,

and I'm sure

they would love to know what

you're doing over the holidays.

I'm playing Gin Rummy

Over Spiced Rum with my dad,

and I'm watching Christmas

movies with my stepmom.

Nobody wants to read about that.

Look, I'm just saying we have

to give them something.

But wouldn't that defeat

the entire purpose

of you promising me

that I wouldn't have to work

over the holidays

this year again?

Well, maybe just consider that

check a no-strings-attached

thank-you bribe for keeping

your fan following then.

A no-strings-attached bribe?

You are literally

contradicting yourself.

See? I knew you'd understand.

And I know

that whatever you come up with,

it's gonna be spectacular.

Looking forward to it!

- Merry Christmas indeed!

- Merry Christmas, Genevieve!

- Sonny, you home yet?

- Yup! In here!

Open this, immediately.

To celebrate our spot

being a huge hit?

Oh, yes! Our travel spot.

Isn't it amazing?

Our ratings are through the roof

and because of you!

And I even got a promotion.

Bree, that's amazing! Oh.

They're giving me the show. They

are actually giving it to me.

As in, no other hosts, just me.

Gals Gone Global

With Bree Ferris.

Eeh!

Congrats. Congrats.

Cheers to you,

and to my big fat bonus.

What? Ah! Ah...

Why have we never teamed up

before now?

I mean, seriously.

I had no idea how much people

would love how silly we are.

Oh, wait. No.

This is not a celebration.

No, I brought this wine

because I'm losing my mind.

I think Jarod wants to break up

with me. I'm freaking out.

Okay, break up with you? Why?

He cancelled

our entire overseas trip.

My boss wants the proposal

on her desk by New Year's Eve.

- Why can't you work overseas?

- You know Jarod.

He wants to tour all day,

every day.

I won't get anything done,

so then I had to try to cut

the trip in half

and come home Christmas Day.

And instead,

he canceled the entire trip

and said he needed time

to think about us.

Oh, time for what?

I thought you said

you thought he got a...

A ring. I know he did because

I saw it on the statement.

By accident.

Okay, fine, I looked.

But because he said

he was going to Chicago,

he was gonna go home

and think about us

and he has too much time,

he may end it all!

Bree...

Jarod loves you.

You're gonna be fine.

He's not gonna dump you.

Sonny!

Help me! What are you saying?

What am I gonna do?

I don't know. Um,

maybe you show some compromise.

All right? Maybe you could

propose to him.

How am I gonna do that?

He has the ring.

Or maybe you could

present an environment

where he wants

to propose to you.

Have you thought about

what you're gonna propose?

- For your travel show?

- Yes, actually.

SoCal Ladies' Excursions.

Spas, retreats and SoCal hikes,

so I could be close to home

to plan a wedding.

Well, that's great!

Travel closer to home.

That's a good idea.

Hey, wait.

That's it.

Travel from home.

That's my story.

Hello, you're supposed

to be helping me.

Maybe we can help each other,

I think I have the perfect idea

for you to get back

in Jarod's good graces

in time for

the perfect holiday engagement.

A World-Class

Christmas from home?

Look, before I was born, my

parents took a trip to Ireland

for their honeymoon,

right after Christmas.

And my mom always used to talk

about how magical that trip was.

That's where she first learned

about their "Women's Christmas."

Women's Christmas?

A day in Ireland,

right after the holidays,

where the men

take over all the chores,

all of the cooking,

and they fulfill

all of the woman's needs.

All right,

you have my attention.

Why don't we feature an article

with a bunch of

different Christmas traditions

from all over the world,

and bring them

to homes across America?

It's a fun-filled way

to feel like you're traveling

without traveling.

Okay. I'm starting to feel

something here.

But how do we sell this

without coming across as cheap?

What if this was all a lead-up

to a beautiful holiday proposal

in a sweet, snowy chalet?

Wait, is this

part of your article?

Maybe. I'm doing all of this

in part for Bree.

We're hoping to set the stage

for her boyfriend

to propose to her

on Christmas Eve.

Travel show hostess

with the mostest,

Bree Ferris, getting engaged?

I mean, I don't know

if it's going to happen.

- So I can't promise that part.

- Okay, fine.

But I still like this

world-class Christmas from home.

We can make it as part

of our traveling-on-a-budget

holiday special or something.

It's gonna be fantastic,

I promise.

I'm excited.

Well, go, get to it.

- Yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.

- Sonny!

- Paulette, hi.

Hi, sweetheart. It's Sonny.

Hey, sweetie!

When are you coming home?

Hi, dad, I am going to be

heading out sometime tomorrow.

But also, how would you guys

feel about me bringing

some of the old g*ng home?

- For the holidays?

- Sure, sweetie!

What better place

for you kids to reunite

than where you first met?

I don't suppose Mr. Bravo will

be making an appearance, too?

No, dad. Kip's not coming.

It's just us.

So strange, there's a car

parked right outside of my house

that looks just like Kip's car.

Kip?

It's so great

to see you, too, Sonny.

I'm sorry, Sonny, I should have

told you that I invited Kip.

To my house.

- And on our trip.

- On our trip?

Oh, I haven't agreed

to anything yet,

but I'm here and I'm present,

and I'm willing

to hear y'all out.

Come here, please,

and talk to me.

I am sorry, Sonny.

We need all hands on deck!

Jarod refused the invite

to your parents'

and Kip may be the only chance

we have to get him there.

So you invited my ex

to my parents' house

for Christmas? Seriously?

You met him there

at your parents'

bed and breakfast two years ago.

It's not like

it's some novel idea.

Spending Christmas with my ex

is most certainly a novel idea.

Not if it's a cute little

Christmas movie.

Wouldn't it be?

Why would you let

your relationship issues

get in between my relationship?

Fine.

But I'm going to need

an exclusive on your engagement

for the magazine.

Co-exclusive.

Magazine and my travel show.

- Deal?

- Deal.

Don't sit on my pillows.

I bought you

these holiday pillows.

Then stop flattening them

already.

See, there it is,

this is exactly

what I do not wanna be doing

during the holiday season.

I have a very busy farm to get

back to, and I should really...

Kip, you promised

to hear us out.

I think we can assist Jarod

in doing

what he originally planned to do

this Christmas.

- Which is?

- Propose to Bree.

How did you know that?

Because he asked me

her ring size.

- He did? Ah!

- Shh!

I am willing to play nice

and get along

to get them back together, okay?

Okay, all right, I'm listening.

- Okay.

- Go for it.

Okay, I have an idea to create

a Christmas-traditions

around-the-globe

since they're not going

on their trip.

Fun traditions

we can participate in together

to get them back together

come Christmas.

Hm. Not bad. Not bad at all.

What are you getting

out of this?

And do not tell me

that this is another one

of your writing schemes,

because I am not aiding

and abetting the self-delusion

that everything in your life

does not revolve around work.

The only thing I care about

right now

is getting them

back together, okay?

Fine.

I will try and convince

Jarod to come, but only

if your stepmom

makes holiday beignets.

- When do we leave?

- Gosh, yes!

Huh! Look who's here!

There's my little girl.

Looking as young as she did

the day she flew the coop.

Please just tell me you don't

still have my old retainer

in a shadow box in my bedroom.

You know,

when we used to run the B&B,

we had some guests who really

thought retaining your retainer

was a great memory

to hold on to.

Bree, look at you.

We just love watching your show.

I mean, you are the Katie Couric

of women's travel.

Aw, Paulette. That's

a huge compliment, thank you.

I will gladly accept it

alongside

my Outstanding Travel Host

Daytime Emmy.

Oh, okay! What's on the agenda,

then? Oh, wait, wait!

I mean, I thought you said

that Jarod was coming with.

Yeah, uh, yeah, it's a long

story and we'll share more

over dinner, but, yes, yes,

he is coming,

supposedly tomorrow,

and with Kip.

- With...

- Oh, but, no.

We are not getting back

together, he's still the same

pain in the rear he was

a year ago when we broke up.

- Okay.

- But we needed his help.

And we promised him

your beignets, so...

All right, then, an assortment

of holiday beignets

for the old g*ng.

And I can definitely do that.

All right, let's grab your bags,

'cause it's cold out here.

You sound flustered. What's up?

It's just

this new season-one proposal.

I keep coming up with names,

but nothing sticks.

I got it.

Ladies

of the Wild Wild West Coast.

Ooh.

It's perfect.

- They're here!

- He actually came.

- Ha-ha! This is very slippery.

- Yup!

- But you can handle.

- All right.

Where are we headed?

- And land.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, okay!

- Where are we, bro?

- Um...

Really? You blindfolded him?

Is, is-is that Sonny?

Hey!

I thought you said we were gonna

kick it, eat junk food

and sit in a hot tub

surrounded by snow, huh?

Yup, and that's exactly

why we're here.

Kip, you weren't supposed

to blindfold him.

- Babe, I'm so sorry.

- Well...

He wouldn't have come up

any other way.

It is really good

to see you, though.

Actually,

good to see you, too, babe.

Here we go. Ah. What's all this?

"Welcome to Christmas

Around the World?"

Well, since we couldn't take our

trip, we brought our vacay here.

I'm sorry, you did what?

Apparently,

it was all Sonny's idea.

At least it is good to see

one of you.

And look,

my parents are super stoked

to have us back again for the

holidays. We hope you'll stay.

Well, I still don't know

what all this is about.

Twelve Christmas traditions

from around the globe.

- Oh? My, God, a whole week?

- We have a whole week planned.

Yeah, it'll be just like when

we first met here two years ago.

We met right here

on this very spot

when it was still open

for business.

Well, it was a good

ski weekend, admittedly.

But it's gonna be impossible

to recreate,

especially under the current

circumstances, you know?

I-I'm really just asking for

a chance to make it up to you.

I know you really wanted to take

that trip, and I promise you,

we will, and soon, okay?

All right.

But, hey, for now, at least

give this one a chance?

All right.

Last time I let you

blindfold me.

Get in there.

Hey. We got this in the bag.

You think? We'll see.

We'll see.

This is just as

delicious as I remember it.

Yeah?

I'm glad you still like it.

Thank you.

You know what?

I think we were literally

sitting in these chairs

when we first had dinner

two years ago.

I think you're right.

The only thing we're missing

is that crazy couple

from Seattle

who came to snowboard.

- You remember them? Yes.

- Jeff and Gina.

I actually keep in touch

with them on social.

They love to go to the places

I write about.

They call them

their Sonny Escapes.

Oh, wow!

- What an idea, a Sonny Escape.

- What's that supposed to mean?

What it means is we're gonna

have a lot of little

Sonny Escapes from home

all week long,

starting tomorrow morning

in the kitchen at 10 a.m.,

where we'll be making holiday

rice pudding from Sweden.

Sweden? That was supposed to be

our first stop.

And when we go for real, it'll

be even better rice pudding.

That is a cute idea,

but you, miss,

you're not

off the hook just yet.

Morning! Who's ready to take

Stockholm by storm?

And put the puddin'

in the rice pudding?

This will be cuter after coffee.

Did Kip get up already or what?

Um, yeah,

he, uh, got up earlier.

He, I think, he went

for a dip in the Jacuzzi.

- Morning.

- Excuse me, sir.

Everybody's waiting inside.

It's Rice Pudding day, remember?

Oh, right, right, yeah. You, uh,

could've started without me.

Start without you? Hello, Kip.

You agreed to help

with Bree and Jarod.

And I will,

but I am also on vacation.

So conversely, you're gonna

have to work around

my morning meditations

in the old hot tub here.

Is this gonna be a thing

every day?

Morning meditations usually are.

Okay, fine. Enjoy your vacation.

Look, look. I'm-I'm out.

I'm getting ready.

I'll be inside.

Kip, can we at least agree

on working together

to keep Bree and Jarod together?

Of course. All right?

I'm all about that.

Right. Thank you.

As Swedish tradition

would have it,

whomever receives this lucky

almond in their pudding

is next to marry.

So now what?

We wait for it to cool.

- Hey, man.

- So nice you decided to join us.

That coffee was yours,

but it's cold now.

Great. You know

I love cold brew.

Ooh! These look ready to eat.

Okay.

Did you take out

all the toothpicks?

Yes, I did.

It's rice pudding. Not pie.

Ah, mm... Um...

Could I talk with you

for a moment?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Why are you pulling me?

I put a red toothpick

where the lucky almond was

in the pudding.

Why?

Because we are trying to

make an engagement happen.

What good is the lucky almond if

the couple we wanna get engaged

doesn't get the almond?

You would have known if

you'd been here on time

for the intel like I asked you.

You saw me take the rice pudding

out of the fridge

and you didn't stop me.

What was it

that you were so busy doing?

Was it work?

You said no work,

no schemes, remember?

Okay, fine.

If you'll be on time, I promise

I will refrain from working.

- Do we have a deal?

- Fine.

Can we go

have some rice pudding now?

Time to see

who gets that almond!

- I cannot wait for that almond!

- Oh, great!

Now there's two.

Smaklig maltid!

I-it means bon appetit

in Swedish.

Oh. Cute! Smaklig maltid!

Okay.

There you go.

Wait. Did you just get the...

Mm, just, um, undercooked rice.

Yay, babe! You got it!

That's really good luck for us.

So, what's next on our

globetrotting holiday agenda?

Well, tonight

we're doing Wigilia,

which is a traditional

Polish dinner.

I do love Polish sausages.

In another fun Polish tradition,

we are going to put fruit

on the tree.

As fun as that sounds, I've

to go into town to get some

last-minute gifts before that

next dump of snow comes in.

Why don't you come with me?

You.

I don't remember all

the good places, and it might be

a good time to give these two

a chance to be alone.

- Right?

- Yeah, right, right, right.

- Right. Okay.

- Great.

Oh, wow, my mom will love this.

- Nope.

- What?

She likes, uh, rustic,

earthy scents.

You know, like pine needles and

log cabins and sage splendor.

Pumpkin cheesecake,

that's too sweet.

Good memory. I thought

she liked pumpkin spice.

Well, pumpkin cheesecake

and spice are different scents.

Oh, try this one.

Holiday sage.

She will love that.

Okay.

Thank you.

How are your parents, anyway?

They're good. They're skiing

in Mammoth until the 26th.

So they'll come visit the farm

after that.

- And you didn't wanna go skiing?

- Oh, no.

My parents are

way too competitive. No way.

Oh, please,

you are so competitive,

you literally race your dogs.

Yeah, exactly, because

sometimes I actually win.

So my parents are much better

skiers. Why even compete?

Touche.

How are Duke and Hazzard?

I miss their furry little faces.

They're in need

of a winter grooming,

so if you need

any more gifting ideas...

Noted.

I have no idea

what to get my parents.

I mean, uh, they have

everything, including candles.

What about a trip to the winery

down in Temecula

that they're always talking

about, where they first met?

That's a really good idea.

Well, how's life

on the farm lately?

Oh, it's going great.

Just built those beehives.

We're pretty excited about that.

Oh. I remember how much

you wanted to do that.

- Yeah.

- How fun.

That must keep you quite busy.

Well, not as busy as you,

traveling and gallivanting

the entire planet.

- Here we go again.

- What?

Well, how my travel job was

the reason for our break-up.

Well, it wasn't

the traveling, Sonny.

It was the fact that you and

Bree stayed in Cabo last year

longer than you promised and we

missed Christmas with my family.

It was one extra day!

Which resulted in you getting

stuck in that tropical storm.

If you left

when you should have...

I have said

I am sorry a 1000 times!

I mean, how was I supposed to

know that the trip would go

viral and that it would be huge

for Bree's show

and-and my column?

Yeah, I'm very sorry

if you were threatened by it.

I-I wasn't threatened, Sonny.

I was just competing

with your job

to spend time with you is all.

That is rich.

You own your own business.

I mean, you make your own hours.

You work around the clock.

You literally never stop.

Yes, and I get to walk home

every night

and sleep in my own bed.

A freezing one, because your,

your fiery insides

can't handle warm blankets.

Oh, well, you never

seemed to complain.

And as I recall,

you used to take, no, no,

steal the bedspread and double

it over so that you can give

that icy-cold-winter heart of

yours an extra layer of warmth.

Yeah, uh-huh.

Oh, you, you're the worst! Hm!

But that was good.

I've been working on that one

for a while.

Why the apples and oranges?

Oh, the Polish used to only use

apples to decorate their tree

because it reminded them

of the Garden of Eden.

But now they use all sorts of

stuff, like candies and nuts.

So after this, we're gonna make

some string ornaments

out of all that.

- Garden of Eden, huh?

- Yup.

You know, Eve really made a mess

of things with the apple.

She deserved

a bit of redemption, no?

You know,

I am glad you did this,

but I'm still upset, you know?

Like, I know it was impossible

for you to take

a three-week vacation with your

boss' demands for the proposal,

but... we were planning that

for a long time.

I know.

What was I supposed to do? Quit?

No, no, no, no, no.

Of course not.

I mean, I know

how much you love your job,

and-and you're great at it.

I just, like...

I just wanna make sure

we're on the same page if we're

considering the next chapter.

You and me both.

Okay. All right.

So you're telling me

whichever single lady

pulls the green straw

from underneath the tablecloth

will be the next to get married?

What if it's different

than who got the almond earlier?

Well, then we'll have

a double wedding.

- Hoo!

- That's good.

- Whoa! And they're off!

- Ho-ho!

Wait, let-let me take a photo

real quick.

So cute!

Ha...

- Hold that thought.

- Oh, he's not convinced.

- Oh, come on!

- Oh, my goodness!

What do you think

is still there, Jarod?

- Hey, I'm innocent, okay?

- He thinks we cheated.

- All right, I can see it.

- About time.

Well, cheers!

Hey.

Is it just me

or is there still a little

something-something brewing

between you and Kip?

- It's definitely just you, dad.

- Ooh.

Definitely not just dad.

- You two are terrible together.

- What?

I mean, you're great,

but you are

terrible together

when it comes to me.

Okay, so now I'm the bad guy,

of course.

Not the bad guy.

Just the nosy one.

What do you expect?

Uh, you never told us

what happened between you two.

- Yeah.

- I mean, you guys were great.

And then, after last Christmas,

it was suddenly over.

I told you

I was going to Santa Barbara

to see his family last

Christmas, and I missed it.

Well, he was very upset,

and he said he needed

a little break from us.

And I had just come back

from that three-day storm.

You know, I-I was

very emotional and upset.

And so I told him

to take forever, and he did.

It's my fault.

I don't blame him.

Honey, you know I love you.

But you kinda screwed

that one up.

- Yeah.

- No, i-it's for the best.

He was always giving me grief

about how much I had to travel.

You didn't ever

try to travel less?

Why should I change

my whole life

and travel less

just to appease him?

I'm just saying.

All relationships

are a compromise.

And maybe you could have

traveled a bit less.

And maybe he could have

gone with her a bit more.

Exactly. Thank you, Paulette.

Okay.

But did you ever ask?

Is this really a Czech

Republic Christmas tradition,

or are you just playing with us

at this point?

Of course it is!

Come on, let's take a selfie

with our lucky boots.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

So we took our boot off,

and the idea is now,

we turn our backs to the door,

we throw it over one shoulder

and whichever one

lands closest to and

pointing towards the door...

And lemme guess,

whichever one lands best

is next in line to get married.

- Exactly!

- Wow.

You're really knocking us

on our heads

with that whole marriage thing,

aren't ya?

Would you rather us

choose a different target?

- For the boot to land?

- No! The door, please!

Um, by all means, go ahead.

Okay, okay. Ready?

One, two...

- You guys want your eggs scra...

- Three!

I'm sorry, dad.

Uh, I'll take mine

scrambled, Cliff. Thanks.

Sorry, Cliff.

Should we do

the cherry twigs now?

- Yeah, yeah. Great idea.

- Cool.

This is another tradition

from the Czech Republic.

But it's just a bunch of twigs.

They're not just twigs.

These are cherry blossom twigs.

The idea is that you pick one,

you put it in a mason jar

with some water, and if it

blooms by Christmas Eve...

You're next to get married.

Well, within a year, but, yes.

Go on. You guys go ahead

and pick one.

So...

Let me..

What?

What? Aren't we

pulling one, too?

Individually, of course.

Okay.

All yours.

Okay. What's next?

Well, our next stop

was Thessaly,

and in their grand tradition,

we must burn cedar branches

to see which one burns fastest.

Only, I couldn't find

cedar branches in the city,

so it looks like

we're gonna have to scour out

and try to find some out here.

Kinda like

our first time up here.

We ran out of firewood.

We had to go foraging for some.

It was guys versus gals.

And we will b*at you

this time, too.

Is that so, Bravo?

Fine. You're on.

Y'all are going down.

Whoa, hey, slow down.

And where are we going?

We already passed

two cedar trees already.

I know

where the perfect cedar sits.

This time we are gonna chop

those boys down to size.

Hey, keep your eye

on the prize here.

I am trying to get a proposal

from Jarod,

and you have a story to write,

about all this.

I know, I just...

He bugs me.

Does he, though?

Because it seems like you two

still have a little something.

We do not.

My dad said the same thing.

I don't know why everybody

keeps saying that.

I don't know, maybe because

it's obvious that you do.

And how do you know what it is

if you don't try?

We did try, and it didn't work.

I'm just saying, he's here now,

why not just take the time

to talk?

It's not too late.

That's it. Come on!

- Oh, yeah.

- Right?

These dry hidden ones

are gonna fizzle down nice.

You just can't stand

to lose, can you?

This is a challenge we get

to actually play, is it not?

Seems like

everything between you and her

is a little challenge.

What, me and Sonny?

- W-What do you mean?

- Oh, come on.

You didn't just come up here

for me and Bree and you know it.

You came up here to find out if

she still has feelings for you.

Now that you know she does,

you're back to playing

the same games that got you

broken up in the first place.

What are you talking about here?

You're still making her pay

for what she did.

But wasn't

you walking away enough?

Me, walking away?

Coming from the guy

who's considering

not proposing

to the girl he loves.

Hey, but I came, didn't I?

I stayed.

And I'm giving this a sh*t.

Now, Sonny may have messed up,

but you're the one

that keeps running away.

Duly noted, by the way,

on the off chance

that you do decide to pop

the big question...

Snuck this with me

outta your house the other day

when I picked you up.

Where did you even find this?

It was literally on your desk.

You are terrible at hiding.

You taking a fireside boomerang?

Look, it's not work if I mantle

a phone and hit a button.

I'm still enjoying myself,

am I not?

Okay. But is it work?

Fine. No phone. And what's with

the inquisition, anyway?

May I remind you, I was very

present when we were together.

I never worked

when you and I traveled.

But you did everywhere else.

Plus, I only felt like

you did that for me.

You ever think about

doing that for you?

You have a point, I admit.

It was nice to just,

just travel for once,

and not make it work.

And I'll admit, traveling with

a travel editor had its perks.

You always knew the best places,

best sites, greatest food.

Plus, I really did enjoy

knowing that you knew

just enough

of a foreign language to get by.

I really did love those accents.

Merci beaucoup.

I just wanted

to thank you for all this.

It's been so much fun

being back here.

And I think Jarod is really

having a wonderful time.

You're welcome.

I honestly wish

this story wasn't even a thing

and I could just enjoy

all of us being together again

with no pressures.

I have barely had a second

to work on this, and Kip,

he's starting to think I'm doing

something sus back out here.

Um, because you are.

I understand Kip's issues

with me working too much, okay?

A-a-and I want to be

more present.

I just wish that I could

find a way to write

and to organize all of this

and enjoy myself, too.

Oh. Well, honey,

that looks great!

- Mm! Something smells amazing.

- Well, it should.

Cliff has been in the kitchen

since sun-up

preparing the perfect

holiday breakfast feast

for Women's Christmas.

We're at the mercy of the ladies

today, fellas.

Anything they want, we must do.

So one of you can go right over

here and start chopping

that fruit and the other

can make a fresh pot of coffee

because I need another.

In Ireland, Women's Christmas

is traditionally

on January 6th,

but today, it's here.

Yay!

That'll be more holiday helpers!

Well, well,

speaking of holiday helpers,

here you are, sir.

- Oh, great!

- And for you.

Of course.

Jonathan, Victor?

Oh, my gosh! Hi!

What's the saying?

"The more the merrier?"

Or is it

"The mostest the merriest?"

I can never remember. Hi.

- It's so good to see you.

- I know.

I miss our Sunday brunches ever

since you guys moved to Venice.

And you know I see you way too

much on FaceTime and TV, but hi.

I-I can't believe you're here!

Well, my sister called

late last night and said

you were in some dire need

of professional help, so...

And we couldn't find anyone

like that on such short notice.

- So instead you get us.

- Well, thank you.

But I-I don't know how much

there is to help with.

Well, you said it last night.

You need some help

with your top secret story.

Jonathan, you are

the best party-thrower I know,

so you're gonna help

with the festivities.

And, Victor, you're gonna start

documenting everything right now

starting with this

beautiful collection of berries

that's going

right in this wreath,

just like they do in Ireland.

- All right.

- Pictures, please.

- Oh, oh, right.

- Oh, we're really doing this.

Say, Hashtag Cabo's

Lit Ladies Christmas!

Ooh. Uh, no. Even it out

a little on the left.

It's, uh, clumpy,

like your baking.

- All right, got it.

- Okay, let's get a pic.

Adorable.

Uh, so why the Irish tradition

today?

Oh, it's Women's Christmas,

and we call all the sh*ts.

We have lots to do, boys. So get

your stuff and let's come in.

- Oh, boy.

- Oh, my gosh.

What did you get us into?

Would you rather be going

to bingo night

in Pomona with your parents?

Oh, I am so happy to be here.

That's the spirit.

- Hello!

- Hi!

You're just in time.

- Whoo-hoo!

- Whoo!

- Okay.

- God bless Ireland.

I love Women's Christmas!

Who wants a mimosa?

- Oh. Yes, please.

- I do.

Hey, I found the candles.

Oh, perfect.

Do you think there's enough?

I think we can get by

with these.

Okay, so let's see

what we have left here.

I see you have a list of... 12.

- Five down, seven to go.

- Okay.

And the rest need to be supreme,

which is why you two are here.

Tonight we're

gonna do a Down Under tradition

of caroling by the candlelight

downtown.

Tomorrow we're gonna transform

the backyard

into the Philippines.

Uh, says we're also doing

Italy's tradition

of wearing colorful underwear.

Bellissimo! I've got tons and I

know exactly which ones to wear.

And I come bearing hot cocoa for

the ladies and our new arrivals.

Why, thank you, Kip.

I'm good, thanks.

Mm! These are yummy.

Is that Irish cream in there?

Okay, I'll have some.

I put a little peppermint in

yours, just the way you like it.

Thanks, Kip. That's very sweet.

You guys enjoy.

Mm, it is good.

Wow!

It's cute.

Oh, wow, they've got you guys

making ornaments now, huh?

Mm-hmm. And mine's gonna be

the best one on the tree.

That's right, babe.

You're k*lling it.

Yeah, like,

you're literally k*lling it.

All right,

I'll be back in a while.

Wait. Where are you going?

Uh, into town, to find

some place for caroling.

- I should drive you then.

- Why?

Well, you had a mimosa

for breakfast

and an Irish cream cocoa,

what, an hour ago.

Responsibility first, sweetie.

Fine.

- Let's go.

- Great. I'll get my coat.

Um, I need to take this.

Yeah, no problem.

I'll just pop up ahead.

Okay.

Uh, Genevieve. Hi.

- Merry, merry! How's our story?

- I'm, uh, working on it.

I haven't had a lot of time

to write much yet.

If you can write a four-page

column about an African safari

while on safari,

I don't see the problem.

Well, um, Kip is up here

and he doesn't know I'm working.

And, uh, to be honest,

the whole thing is just

starting to feel icky now.

Uh, Kip, your ex,

is up there with you?

Um, now I'm confused.

Bree's soon-to-be-fiance

is Kip's best friend,

and we met when

they were skiing up here.

Oh, I get it, so you're up there

romancing instead of writing.

That's what I hear?

Look, Kip agreed to come if

I promised not to work up here.

Then just tell him you finished

it after he left, if he

ever asks. No harm, no foul.

You want me to just lie to him?

I think you've

already been lying to him.

And if you don't have

any feelings, then

what does it really matter,

anyway?

You okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm-I'm fine.

This is the place, right?

Yeah. Yeah, this is perfect.

Hey, let's turn that frown

upside down.

I'll get you a lemon scone,

all warmed up,

just the way you like it.

Together. Say alcohol.

Cute. Okay. Love.

You know,

I thought we were gonna

sing the carols

in an Aussie accent.

Oh you did, did you? Well, they

don't sing it that way, either.

You have

a strangely good accent, Bravo.

Were you an Aussie

in a former life?

Would that make me sexier, mate?

Ooh. Say crikey!

Absolutely not. No.

Crikey, it's almost Christmas.

- Hi.

- Oh, hi.

What's up?

Where are we going now?

Into town to help

Cliff and Paulette shop

for the feast tomorrow.

Oh, thanks for the great idea.

Why does it feel like you guys

tryna get me out of the house?

- No.

- Trust me.

It's better not to ask.

- Come on.

- Wow.

- Are they gone now?

- They're gone.

And the stage is ours.

Oh! Yeah, and check this out.

I took some amazing photos

of the caroling by candlelight

from last night.

- Oh, let's see.

- Look at that.

- Oh, that's so sweet.

- These are really nice.

Oh, that is cute. Wait.

Favorite this one for sure.

- Oh, that's so cute.

- Oh, those are, uh, super nice.

- Yeah.

- What's, uh...

What's all these in the boxes?

We are creating the perfect date

night for Bree and Jarod.

So if he is gonna ask her

to marry him,

tonight would be the night.

- Okay.

- Hear that, Kip?

Feel free to put the bug

in your bestie's ear.

Now, now, Jarod is a big boy.

Let's not force anything.

All we have to do is

set the tone, create some magic

and give them the vacation

they never got.

The rest, it's up to them.

- All right.

- Fair enough.

This is gonna be nice,

I think, and much more

ecofriendly than most

flying lanterns turn out to be.

Speaking of, I started using

those, um, dissolvable

laundry detergent sheets

you recommended. They're great.

They work just the same.

Wait, wait, wait.

That was recent.

You saw that where? In my post.

You stopped following me. Spill.

Fine. I may have looked

at your stories once or twice.

- From Bree's phone.

- Oh, Bree's phone.

That's only because,

you know, I had wine

and went against

my better judgment.

All right. No harm, no foul.

I'm flattered you think of me

when you have wine, though.

And, admittedly,

I still read your column.

It's turned out to be

quite a hit.

Thank you. I'd hope so.

I definitely put in the time

and I travel more than I'd like.

You have invited me

on several work trips

that I could've tried to go on.

I didn't have to go

on all of them, I...

I could've gone to some.

I appreciate that.

Um, I must admit

that I could, uh,

learn to say no a little more.

But didn't you say you wanted

to take some time off

once you checked off Europe,

write

a travel-companion guidebook?

Yeah, you're right.

I guess I did check that off

my list this summer.

Yeah, yeah, not that I knew.

Counting or anything.

Oh, I think we're done here,

you know?

Yeah, the only thing we need

is a little music.

Right this way.

- Mabuhay!

- Hey.

How did you guys like

our traditional lantern festival

from the Philippines?

This is beautiful, babe.

Thank you.

Oh, don't thank me.

Thank the dream team.

Thank you, guys. Thank you.

Got you, man.

Well, tonight was a success.

If we don't get a proposal

after this,

Jarod doesn't even deserve her.

We both know how perfect

they are for each other.

Yeah.

What do you think went wrong

between us?

Why is it so difficult for us

to communicate?

Honestly...

I think we both have

big personalities.

But we also wanted to please

each other so badly

that we often left

a lot of feelings unsaid.

You know, when we first met,

I wasn't even looking

for a relationship.

And I didn't expect

to fall so crazy for you.

I think I was tough on you

than you needed.

But maybe I did need it,

you know?

But I just didn't wanna hear it

until it was too late.

I wasn't ready to meet you,

either. I...

I mean, not when my career

was finally taking off and...

I just,

I didn't wanna jeopardize that.

Well, maybe that's what

you needed at the time.

Everything happens

for a reason, right?

Yeah.

I never apologized

for missing Christmas

with your parents last year.

I, I used every excuse

in the book.

I lied to myself that it wasn't

my fault. And it was.

I'm really sorry, Kip.

Thanks for that.

You know,

if it's any consolation,

my parents

still really love you.

Oh. You don't need one of these.

I was just coming

to look for you.

I need to talk to you,

but not here.

I'll meet you downstairs

in five.

Okay.

I think I'm just gonna propose

to Jarod first.

What do you think?

- You bought him a ring, too?

- Shh!

Of course I got him a ring.

I got it ages ago

when I found out he got me one.

The accident. Right.

Focus, please. What should I do?

Do you want to ask him?

Or are you just being

impatient now

because you want him to ask you?

I'm ready. And I don't care

who asks who first.

Bree, that's sweet.

Look, if last night

is any indication,

the candy is in the stocking.

You can't go wrong.

- Follow your heart.

- Okay. Right.

Uh, I don't wanna

steal the moment

if he already

has something planned.

So maybe I'll just wait

till tomorrow night then.

That's a wonderful idea.

Okay, right.

Well, how is the story coming?

Did you make any headway

yesterday?

No. No.

And honestly, I-I don't think

it's gonna happen.

- What?

- I cannot keep lying to Kip.

There's just this...

Something between you.

Finally she admits it.

Well, I mean, it's not like

everybody didn't notice anyways.

Well, so what are you

gonna do then?

I don't know.

I hope that my boss

doesn't fire me

for not delivering.

Hey, you'll figure it out.

I mean, look, maybe since

you're making such sacrifices,

you guys will really have

a sh*t at it this time. Right?

Let me see.

- It's cute.

- Bree...

Okay, so I spoke to Jarod

this morning, and between us,

I think an eagle is gonna be

landing tomorrow night.

A shiny gold eagle?

- Oh, yeah.

- Okay, then.

Well, I hope he beats

our snow bunny to the punch.

Is that like a thing?

I'm way ahead of you.

I believe she's waiting

for the gold eagle

to fly down and swoop her up.

Where did you come from?

You hear all that?

I heard it all.

Understood none.

Your secret language

is safe with me.

Is it just me or does he

kind of remind you of...

Elf On A Shelf?

I heard and understood that.

- Smells good.

- Like? Good?

Do I really look like

an Elf On A Shelf?

- You're my elf on the shelf.

- Oh, look!

Ooh!

Thank you, everyone,

for helping us celebrate

colorful under-attire in honor

of Italy's holiday traditions.

And to further underscore

the tradition,

I have made sweet, sugar-glazed

Italian Christmas cookies.

Oh, Paulette,

these look delicious.

Let's not get too full, guys.

We have a French holiday feast

later today.

Oh, yeah, and did I hear that

a King's Cake is also involved

in this feast?

That's right.

In one of our final

worldly traditions,

we will finish our feast

with a King's cake,

normally served six days

after the New Year,

but which we will celebrate

early this year, and in which

this tiny charm will hide.

Oh! Ooh!

Whomever finds

this tiny lucky charm,

also called a feve in French,

will be able to choose

his or her holiday prince.

Oh! Oh.

We're so gonna get it.

Or princess?

Your choice.

I'm gonna get that, baby.

Hey, I have an idea.

Why don't we take turns

going around the table

and sharing

our favorite Christmas memory?

Aw... Well,

that's an easy one for us.

- Christmas in Colorado.

- Christmas in Costa Rica!

Wait, what?

Breckenridge was way better.

We skied, had hot toddies,

fell asleep by the fireplace

every night.

- No. You skied, I fell.

- Wow.

You had toddies,

but I don't like whiskey.

Costa Rica

was the perfect holiday.

- We swam, we hiked.

- Oh, yeah.

Where I woke up with a spider

the size of my face on my face.

- Thanks a lot, Santa.

- Oh, that's called karma.

Jonathan, for leaving me

with mom and grams

two years in a row.

What? We were honeymooning.

Okay, then, Bree, your turn.

Well, I think my fave Christmas

would be two years ago, right

here, when we met these two.

Aw...

You know what? I concur.

- How about you, dear?

- Um...

Um, my favorite Christmas

was the last one

I spent with my mom,

'cause we knew, you know,

it was gonna be the last

and so we really

made the most of it.

How about you, honey?

For me it would

have to have been

the first Christmas I spent

with this one here.

Sonn was born in early February,

so she must have been

about ten months or so,

and we could not get her to look

away from the Christmas tree.

O-or any lights for that matter.

She just wanted to grab 'em

so bad.

And once, when your mom

was taking you down the stairs,

she got a hold of a strand

and ripped the entire strand,

garland and all,

right off of the banister.

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, wow.

I mean, that was the best.

Watching you

waddle around that house,

chasing after

those little lights...

You know, it's funny,

my, uh, my parents said

I love the lights, too.

Except, I would try to eat them.

Well, what was

your favorite holiday?

Oh, there were, uh,

so many growing up,

um, it's kind of a blur really.

Maybe the best

is still yet to come.

Hm.

But I will say,

two years ago when we came here,

it's a hard one to b*at.

I agree.

Although, this one

it's giving it

stiff competition.

I will cheer to that

and to Jonathan's hit

holiday Sangria.

- Salut!

- Salut!

Hear, hear.

What do we do if we

chew the charm by accident?

- Chew carefully, dear.

- Yeah.

It's not exactly an almond.

Ooh-ooh!

Girl!

This is rigged. I want a redo.

There is no rigging.

I placed the charm.

- No one knew where it was.

- Well...

Looks like someone needs to pick

her Prince Charming.

Who will it be?

Merry Christmas,

Prince Charming.

Ay maldito, bravo.

You cursed, homeboy.

Right?

I'm so sorry, Nutcracker Prince.

This Charming Prince

stole my cold little heart

quite some time ago.

Ooh!

This is awesome. Thanks, guys.

Excuse me,

I-I need to take this.

- I got it.

- Yeah? Thanks.

Hm, you wanna ring my bell?

Merry almost Christmas. I think

you know why I'm calling.

Yeah, and unfortunately,

I cannot in good conscience do

this story you're asking for.

Why? What happened?

You know how important

my career is to me

and how hard I worked to keep

you and our subscribers happy.

Well, you know, at some point

I have to think about

my happiness as well.

I just hope you forgive me

and, uh, not fire me.

Fire you? Sonny...

You are the best

writer I have on the staff.

I'm so proud of the work

that we've done.

I would, I would never fire you

for putting your needs first.

Just maybe give me something

great for New Year's, then?

- Okay?

- Okay.

Now, that I can promise.

And you might even have

a travel-book proposition

on your desk by New Year's.

A book proposal?

All right, now I'm listening.

Thank you for understanding,

really.

Of course.

All right, all right, um,

get back to that spiked cider

and have a very Merry Christmas,

all right?

Bye, Genevieve. Merry Christmas.

You must be freezing.

Thank you.

Everything all right?

- Everything's perfect.

- Okay.

We, uh, gonna stay out here

all night?

- Inside.

- Get warm.

Guys, what are we wrapping?

Oh, these are gifts

for mom and grams.

Jonathan is gonna

stop by there tomorrow

after they go by

Victor's parents'.

Jonathan and Victor,

it is sad to see you go,

but thank you so much

for being here

for some

of our worldly traditions.

Yeah, this has been

a total treat.

So thanks for having us, guys.

Yes. Oh, uh...

Let me airdrop you the photos

from this week before I forget,

for your little article.

- Little article?

- Um...

- I need to use the bathroom.

- Me, too.

- Wow!

- Kip, look.

I was going to tell you.

But, um, I thought about it

and I decided it was better

to not do the article at all.

So I'm not doing it. That's what

I was talking to my boss about.

She said fine,

and so all I have to do

is a piece for New Year's Eve,

instead.

Oh, isn't that wonderful,

though?

Not really.

And you decided this now?

Two weeks after you told me that

you wouldn't be working up here?

- You promised.

- Things are different now.

When I said that...

I didn't think you needed

to know about the article.

We were broken up, I...

Honestly, it wasn't even

any of your business,

and I-I would have done anything

to have you bring Jarod up here.

Bree is my best friend.

And I'm assuming

you knew about this?

I didn't know it was

a touchy subject. I mean..

- Is it that big of a deal?

- Actually, it is.

Because she promised me.

And this is exactly the type

of stuff that you used to pull

that broke us up

in the first place, Sonny.

Kip, I'm sorry.

But I just put my column

and my job on the line for you

because I still love you!

I mean,

what do you want from me?

I-I cannot change this now.

But that's just it.

You haven't changed, Sonny.

And it's not the fact that

you lied to me two weeks ago.

It's that you brought me

up here, pulled me in

and made me fall for you

all over again.

All the while,

you were doing what you do best,

prioritizing your work

over the person you love.

And it feels

just like last Christmas.

And I feel like a fool, again.

Oh, God.

Merry Christmas.

We'll see you New Year's.

Party at your place, I can't

wait. We will be there.

And you'll be early

to help set up.

Yes.

Hey, everything will work

itself out, all right?

And if not,

we'll have plenty of champs

waiting for you at Bree's.

Thank you, Jonathan,

for everything.

And you, too, Victor.

Hey, I'm sorry about

being that guy

that spilled the beans

about your article.

That kind of behavior is usually

reserved for Jonathan.

Okay, come on. Let's go already.

- Bye, guys. Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas!

We're gonna head into downtown,

get a couple of things

for tomorrow.

Well, didn't my dad say

he got everything?

Butter.

We are almost out of butter.

And most of the recipes

require it, so...

- Yeah.

- All right. No.

I don't need anything. Thanks.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- Hey.

- Hey.

You forgot something

at the house.

You guys.

It's your cherry twigs

in a mason jar.

Oh, and a gift from us.

It's actually

a grooming gift card

for your dogs,

'cause they need it badly.

Much appreciated. Thanks, guys.

Well, it's a bummer

you're not sticking around

for the rest of the traditions,

'cause tonight

we're lighting up the Yule log.

Apparently,

it's a British tradition

and I was very much looking

forward to having you

come in hot with your accent.

Yeah, um, I-I don't think

it's a good idea.

Maybe we shouldn't meddle

in your business with Sonny,

but, but I know she's had a hard

time finishing that article

this week, and I know

it's because of you.

I don't see

how that changes anything.

Oh, but it does.

You remember that time

she got stuck in Cabo?

That was my idea

to stay an extra day.

I pushed her to do it,

just like her boss pushed her

to make this article happen.

You can't blame her

for being a good friend.

Yeah, you see,

that's the problem, though.

She always put

work and friendship

ahead of the relationship.

Oh, but you're not together now.

She doesn't owe you anything.

Okay, maybe she lied. But what

choice did you give her?

I know you think

Sonny hasn't changed,

but you came between her

and her job again.

All I'm saying is that maybe

there's more than one person

responsible.

If all you wanna do

is punish her

and make her pay

for what she did,

wasn't giving up last time

enough for you?

Hey, how you doing?

Good. Just soaking in

this mountain morning sun.

- It's afternoon.

- Is it?

It kind of feels nice not to

have some deadline for once.

Yeah. I'd imagine so.

We didn't need butter, did we?

Nope.

Did you talk to him?

We did. And I don't think

it did any good.

And he's already headed down

the road, I think, but I tried.

Thank you, Bree.

You're a good friend,

when we're not

getting in trouble.

Yeah. Thank you.

Jarod and I are a lot better

because of you.

I don't know why your parents

still have this swing set.

I mean, since they retired, it's

not like families and guests

are coming by all the time.

Yeah, you know, I asked them

about it a couple of years ago

when they retired.

My dad said he's keeping it up

just in case

grandchildren pop up.

Oh, that sounds

just like your dad.

You still think about

having kids?

Not much lately.

I mean, of course,

I've thought about it.

I thought about it a lot more

when I met Kip.

But you-you can't have kids

traveling.

As we know,

there's a lot we can't do.

But we figure it out.

We're women.

We endure childbirth.

There's not a lot we can't do.

Plus, you'd be home a lot more

if you started working

on that book you've been

talking about doing.

You know, I talked to Genevieve

about it. She was into it.

Yeah, it's something

to start thinking about.

But we just struck gold

with all of these new fans.

How are Girls Gone Global

if I'm stuck at home?

Yeah, but the fans are into us,

not so much the places we go to.

Why don't we travel together?

I can propose this

to the network.

Gals Gone Global,

The Wild Wild West Coast

Edition.

- Ah. Oh, that's not bad.

- Mn-mn.

Genevieve said that the network

wanted to partner with us again.

Oh, and we could do a podcast.

And then you could work

on your book from the road.

Oh... That sounds so perfect.

They used to start

with an entire tree

and then the remains

of the previous year's tree

they would save to burn

during the 12 days of Christmas.

Bit by bit.

So maybe we need to make sure

we save some for next year.

Maybe I'm gonna get us

a whole tree now.

- And start doing it right.

- I like that. Now...

Speaking of doing it

right, I must confess that

I did not enhance, my Yule log

sponge cake is really

more of a Yule log

sponge pudding at this moment,

but it's delicious.

So, you know, there is that.

I just wanna say,

no complaints, whatsoever.

To Cliff and Paulette.

Thank you so very much

for hosting us again.

I concur. Cheers.

Any time.

Every year if you like.

- Absolutely.

- We're always here.

This is tradition

number ten, right?

So what are

other two traditions?

- Should we then...

- Yeah.

Let's, uh, open up

our stockings.

- Okay, you go first.

- No.

I think you should go first.

You know, Sonny told me

about this Germanic legend,

that on Christmas Eve,

the pure of heart

will see the rivers

flow with wine

and the trees

will bear down fruit.

The animals will speak

and the mountains would open up

to show their gems.

And bells can be heard ringing

underneath the sea.

Bree Ferris,

no matter where we are,

at home or over the ocean,

that is how I feel

every time I'm with you.

Every day is like Christmas Eve.

And all I know

is that I never wanna spend

another one without you.

So

will you please... marry me?

Yes, of course.

All right.

- You did it.

- Okay, you open yours.

- Now get it.

- Well...

Since you already know

the Germanic legends,

you probably also know the one

about the gold ring

in a stocking.

- Yay! Oh, yay!

- All right.

Yoo-hoo-hoo!

Congratulations, you two.

Oh. Thanks, man.

Thanks, Kip.

You came back.

Of course.

What kind of a best man

misses best friend's engagement?

Now, could he?

So...

So.

You telling Jarod

to put the ring in the stocking

as part of the event,

smooth move, Kravitz.

Well, I must admit

I had a little help.

Thank you for being

a great informant, bravo.

You know, you and I, we make

not such a bad team

when we're on the same side.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

You know, I, uh,

I didn't come back

just to witness the engagement.

You didn't?

Nope.

I came back because

I think you should turn in that

piece about the 12 traditions.

- Why is that?

- Well...

I can't have you skipping that

and then doing a New Year's

piece when we're really supposed

to be enjoying

Bree and Jarod's crazy party.

Wait, are you now telling me

that you and I

are going to Bree's

New Year's party together?

If

you'll have me.

Sonny, I am so, so, sorry.

You made a tiny mistake again

and I reacted poorly again.

It was the same silly

action-reaction as before.

And all I really want

is for you and I to start over.

The new me and the new you

who are honest and open and...

Prioritize each other's needs.

- Yeah.

- I 100 percent agree.

So... what now?

Well, um, I hope

you spend the rest

of Christmas Eve with us.

Um, apparently, there is some

really yummy

Yuletide sponge pudding.

- I hear.

- Can't wait.

Plus, I really don't wanna miss

another Christmas with you, Kip.

Yeah.

That makes two of us, then.

Wait.

Did I miss the last tradition?

There were 12. Right?

Uh, no, you didn't.

Actually,

the, the last tradition

is actually an American one

and it is right above our head

right now as we speak.

Wow!

You are so good.

You totally knew that was there.
