CASSIE:
Hmm?

182
00:06:03.450 --> 00:06:04.320
WALT:
Well, on your
phone just now.

183
00:06:04.451 --> 00:06:06.366
Gentleman caller, maybe?

184
00:06:06.496 --> 00:06:07.410
CASSIE:
Dad, please.

185
00:06:07.541 --> 00:06:08.890
No, it's someone from work.

186
00:06:09.020 --> 00:06:10.021
WALT:
Oh, oh.

187
00:06:10.152 --> 00:06:11.153
Well, I thought you
were done with New York.

188
00:06:11.283 --> 00:06:12.850
CASSIE:
You know what,
enough about me.

189
00:06:12.981 --> 00:06:15.287
What are these errands
you're supposed to be doing?

190
00:06:15.418 --> 00:06:17.202
WALT:
I'm getting
my morning mocha.

191
00:06:17.333 --> 00:06:18.595
CASSIE:
Mmhmm.

192
00:06:18.726 --> 00:06:19.640
WALT:
Which is the most
important meal of the day.

193
00:06:19.770 --> 00:06:21.381
CASSIE:
Oh boy.

194
00:06:21.511 --> 00:06:24.166
WALT:
And then I'm going to go and
meet Melinda at the library.

195
00:06:24.296 --> 00:06:25.602
CASSIE:
You're volunteering again?

196
00:06:25.733 --> 00:06:27.343
WALT:
I do it for
the free books.

197
00:06:27.474 --> 00:06:29.040
CASSIE:
You do know that
they're all free, right?

198
00:06:29.171 --> 00:06:29.824
MAN:
Of course I know.

199
00:06:29.954 --> 00:06:30.520
CASSIE:
It's a library.

200
00:06:30.651 --> 00:06:31.695
That's how this works.

201
00:06:31.826 --> 00:06:33.523
This is your most
important meal of the day?

202
00:06:33.654 --> 00:06:34.524
WALT:
Looks good,
thank you very much.

203
00:06:34.655 --> 00:06:35.351
WOMAN:
Of course.

204
00:06:35.482 --> 00:06:36.308
CASSIE:
Surprised.

205
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:37.571
Thank you.

206
00:06:39.094 --> 00:06:40.530
Dad, I want to talk to you
about the Winter Festival.

207
00:06:40.661 --> 00:06:41.618
WALT:
Oh, Cassie.

208
00:06:41.749 --> 00:06:42.837
CASSIE:
No no, I know.

209
00:06:42.967 --> 00:06:44.055
But it's almost Christmas,
and it just doesn't feel

210
00:06:44.186 --> 00:06:45.579
right without it.

211
00:06:45.709 --> 00:06:47.668
WALT:
I know honey, but it was
a lot of work, even before

212
00:06:47.798 --> 00:06:48.538
your mother passed.

213
00:06:48.669 --> 00:06:50.540
Times have changed.

214
00:06:50.671 --> 00:06:51.498
Things are different.

215
00:06:51.628 --> 00:06:53.543
Sometimes it's
better to move on.

216
00:06:53.674 --> 00:06:54.936
CASSIE:
I know, but it
wasn't just a festival.

217
00:06:55.066 --> 00:06:56.720
It was Christmas.

218
00:06:56.851 --> 00:06:57.895
I mean seeing the whole town
get together knowing that Mom

219
00:06:58.026 --> 00:06:59.506
was a huge part of it?

220
00:06:59.636 --> 00:07:01.595
Just, those are some
of my best memories.

221
00:07:01.725 --> 00:07:03.031
WALT:
Well, mine too, honey.

222
00:07:03.161 --> 00:07:05.599
But it just got harder and
harder to pull together.

223
00:07:05.729 --> 00:07:07.731
It took everything your
mother had just to give us

224
00:07:07.862 --> 00:07:09.646
that one last Christmas.

225
00:07:09.777 --> 00:07:11.300
And without her on the
Festival Committee

226
00:07:11.431 --> 00:07:12.344
I really don't...

227
00:07:12.475 --> 00:07:13.694
CASSIE:
No, Dad,
we can do it.

228
00:07:13.824 --> 00:07:15.043
We need to do it, because if
we don't do it, this'll be

229
00:07:15.173 --> 00:07:17.219
the first year that
it hasn't happened.

230
00:07:17.349 --> 00:07:18.612
How does that feel?

231
00:07:18.742 --> 00:07:20.831
WALT:
Well, things don't
always work out, kid.

232
00:07:20.962 --> 00:07:22.616
You know, life's
not a fairy tale.

233
00:07:22.746 --> 00:07:24.226
CASSIE:
But what if it was?

234
00:07:24.356 --> 00:07:25.270
WALT:
[laughing]

235
00:07:25.401 --> 00:07:26.358
What if it was?

236
00:07:26.489 --> 00:07:27.577

00:07:27.708 --> 00:07:35.585
[♪♪♪]

238
00:07:51.993 --> 00:07:54.648
MARY:
I will
not accept that.

239
00:07:54.778 --> 00:07:56.867
This is how it has always
been and how it will

240
00:07:56.998 --> 00:07:59.174
always be.

241
00:07:59.304 --> 00:08:01.089
REGINALD:
I just thought,
your Highness, that if you

242
00:08:01.219 --> 00:08:03.091
could postpone the Royal
Christmas Ball until after

243
00:08:03.221 --> 00:08:04.614
the prince returned
to the castle.

244
00:08:04.745 --> 00:08:06.790
MARY:
We can't postpone
the Royal Christmas Ball,

245
00:08:06.921 --> 00:08:07.704
Reginald.

246
00:08:07.835 --> 00:08:09.010
It must be on Christmas Day.

247
00:08:09.140 --> 00:08:10.620
It's tradition.

248
00:08:10.751 --> 00:08:13.188
The Varovian Royal Family has
observed this practice for

249
00:08:13.318 --> 00:08:16.017
centuries, and once more, it
is Nicholas' 35th year and

250
00:08:16.147 --> 00:08:18.715
you know the significance
that has on the proceedings.

251
00:08:18.846 --> 00:08:19.847
REGINALD:
Yes, Ma'am, of course.

252
00:08:19.977 --> 00:08:21.413
MARY:
And you!

253
00:08:21.544 --> 00:08:22.632
I don't understand.

254
00:08:22.763 --> 00:08:24.286
How could he just go missing?

255
00:08:24.416 --> 00:08:25.940
You're his attendant.

256
00:08:26.070 --> 00:08:27.419
How can you attend him when
you don't even know

257
00:08:27.550 --> 00:08:28.682
where he is?

258
00:08:28.812 --> 00:08:30.510
ARTHUR:
We've been
trying, your Highness.

259
00:08:30.640 --> 00:08:33.556
It appears his telephone
has been switched off, and a

260
00:08:33.687 --> 00:08:37.299
search of his quarters gives
no indication, exactly,

261
00:08:37.429 --> 00:08:39.475
of where he may be.

262
00:08:39.606 --> 00:08:40.345
MARY:
Try harder.

263
00:08:40.476 --> 00:08:42.217
ARTHUR:
Yes.

264
00:08:42.347 --> 00:08:44.175
MARY:
It's absolutely
crucial to Crown and Country

265
00:08:44.306 --> 00:08:48.049
that Nicholas is here for the
coronation on Christmas Day.

Oh, well,
have a look around.

Oh, well.

No, you couldn't even
see that I had a stack of

Dad, I know.

531
00:18:17.531 --> 00:18:18.053
I know.

532
00:18:18.184 --> 00:18:18.706
I know.

533
00:18:18.836 --> 00:18:19.881
Time is not on our side.

534
00:18:20.011 --> 00:18:21.100
But I mean come on, dad.

535
00:18:21.230 --> 00:18:22.144
It's Christmas.

536
00:18:22.275 --> 00:18:23.363
It's Christmas!

537
00:18:23.493 --> 00:18:25.626
That's what this entire
holiday is about.

538
00:18:25.756 --> 00:18:29.195
It's taking what's impossible
and making it possible.

539
00:18:29.325 --> 00:18:31.066
This is exactly
the right answer.

540
00:18:31.197 --> 00:18:33.503
I can feel it.

541
00:18:33.634 --> 00:18:36.680
WOMAN:
I hate to say it, but
this close to the holidays,

542
00:18:36.811 --> 00:18:38.726
I can't take time
away from my store.

543
00:18:38.856 --> 00:18:40.075
CASSIE:
Of course.

544
00:18:40.206 --> 00:18:41.729
SARAH:
I'll spread the
word all over town.

545
00:18:41.859 --> 00:18:43.252
CASSIE:
Thank you.

546
00:18:43.383 --> 00:18:44.601
MAN:
I can
contribute a little.

547
00:18:44.732 --> 00:18:46.255
Just, the timeline.

548
00:18:46.386 --> 00:18:48.127
WOMAN:
I could set up a
donation box, but I can't

549
00:18:48.257 --> 00:18:50.868
take on a project
of this size.

550
00:18:50.999 --> 00:18:53.088
Your mom worked months
to pull this off.

551
00:18:53.219 --> 00:18:54.959
DAVID:
We're leaving
in the morning.

552
00:18:55.090 --> 00:18:57.223
MADISON:
We'll do what we
can when we get back, but.

553
00:18:57.353 --> 00:19:00.443
[♪♪♪]

554
00:19:00.574 --> 00:19:01.923
CASSIE:
Anyone?

555
00:19:02.053 --> 00:19:02.706
Come on.

556
00:19:02.837 --> 00:19:04.012
There's got to be someone.

557
00:19:04.143 --> 00:19:05.666
WALT:
It was a
lovely idea, Cassie.

558
00:19:05.796 --> 00:19:07.929
NICHOLAS:
I'll do it.

559
00:19:08.059 --> 00:19:09.452
CASSIE:
Excuse me?

560
00:19:09.583 --> 00:19:13.717
NICHOLAS:
Uh, I volunteer
for the Winter Festival.

561
00:19:13.848 --> 00:19:15.850
CASSIE:
Uh, who are you?

562
00:19:15.980 --> 00:19:17.068
NICHOLAS:
I'm Nicholas.

563
00:19:17.199 --> 00:19:18.679
I'm visiting.

564
00:19:18.809 --> 00:19:20.420
Hey.

565
00:19:20.550 --> 00:19:22.335
CASSIE:
No no, this is a
meeting for residents

566
00:19:22.465 --> 00:19:24.424
of the town only.

567
00:19:24.554 --> 00:19:26.077
NICHOLAS:
I'd love
to get involved.

568
00:19:26.208 --> 00:19:29.168
CASSIE:
What does
that even mean?

569
00:19:29.298 --> 00:19:31.300
NICHOLAS:
You can't do this
yourself, and you know, based

570
00:19:31.431 --> 00:19:33.607
on the organizational skills
I saw earlier today,

571
00:19:33.737 --> 00:19:34.695
you're going to need all the
help you can get, right?

572
00:19:34.825 --> 00:19:35.957
[chuckles]

573
00:19:36.087 --> 00:19:37.088
CASSIE:
[chuckles]

574
00:19:37.219 --> 00:19:38.089
Are you being
serious right now?

575
00:19:38.220 --> 00:19:39.003
NICHOLAS:
More than
you'll ever know.

576
00:19:39.134 --> 00:19:40.135
CASSIE:
Okay.

577
00:19:40.266 --> 00:19:41.484
My mother built this
from the ground up.

578
00:19:41.615 --> 00:19:43.834
This Festival is about
kindness and community, and

579
00:19:43.965 --> 00:19:49.449
I would rather do it on my
own than work with you.

580
00:19:49.579 --> 00:19:50.841
NICHOLAS:
You don't even know me.

581
00:19:50.972 --> 00:19:53.017
CASSIE:
I'm pretty sure
you've made yourself known.

582
00:19:53.148 --> 00:19:55.019
I don't need your help.

583
00:19:55.150 --> 00:19:56.195
NICHOLAS:
Okay.

584
00:19:56.325 --> 00:19:57.587
CASSIE:
Mmhmm.

585
00:19:57.718 --> 00:19:59.546
NICHOLAS:
Suit yourself.

586
00:19:59.676 --> 00:20:00.851
CASSIE:
Great.

587
00:20:03.724 --> 00:20:05.900
WALT:
Cassie, what
was that about?

588
00:20:06.030 --> 00:20:07.206
CASSIE:
It's nothing.

589
00:20:07.336 --> 00:20:09.425
It's a long story.

590
00:20:09.556 --> 00:20:11.166
MELINDA:
Well so
much for that idea.

591
00:20:11.297 --> 00:20:12.559
What are we going to do?

592
00:20:12.689 --> 00:20:14.343
CASSIE:
Melinda.

593
00:20:14.474 --> 00:20:16.867
[♪♪♪]

594
00:20:16.998 --> 00:20:18.869
CASSIE:
I am going
to make this happen.

595
00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:20.958
I'm going to make it for
you, for the library.

596
00:20:21.089 --> 00:20:23.265
For my mom.

597
00:20:23.396 --> 00:20:28.096
You want a Christmas miracle,
I will figure this out.

598
00:20:29.967 --> 00:20:32.405
WALT:
Well, I think this
is the last of them.

599
00:20:32.535 --> 00:20:32.840
CASSIE:
Whoo!

600
00:20:32.970 --> 00:20:34.189
Good.

601
00:20:34.320 --> 00:20:35.669
I do not think my back could
handle another trip

602
00:20:35.799 --> 00:20:37.148
to the attic.

603
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:38.149
WALT:
Your back?

604
00:20:38.280 --> 00:20:39.455
CASSIE:
[giggles]

605
00:20:39.586 --> 00:20:41.892
WALT:
Well, she sure
kept meticulous records.

606
00:20:42.023 --> 00:20:43.590
CASSIE:
Mmhmm.

607
00:20:43.720 --> 00:20:46.593
WALT:
You know the Winter
Fest, that was her baby.

608
00:20:46.723 --> 00:20:48.682
Present company
excluded of course.

609
00:20:48.812 --> 00:20:51.337
But this is something
that she just loved to do.

610
00:20:51.467 --> 00:20:52.338
CASSIE:
Well, the Winter
Festival was special

611
00:20:52.468 --> 00:20:53.426
to you too.

612
00:20:53.556 --> 00:20:56.342
I mean you could
have kept it going.

613
00:20:56.472 --> 00:20:59.301
WALT:
I would have just
missed her too much.

614
00:20:59.432 --> 00:21:01.651
CASSIE:
Why didn't
you say that before?

615
00:21:01.782 --> 00:21:03.871
WALT:
Um, I don't know.

616
00:21:04.001 --> 00:21:05.742
Um...

617
00:21:05.873 --> 00:21:08.005
I guess because parents don't
always have it all figured

618
00:21:08.136 --> 00:21:10.138
out despite what their
kids might think.

619
00:21:10.269 --> 00:21:12.793
[laughing]

620
00:21:12.923 --> 00:21:14.273
CASSIE:
Okay.

621
00:21:14.403 --> 00:21:19.452
I actually figured that out
the first time that you made

622
00:21:19.582 --> 00:21:21.410
a gingerbread with me and you
couldn't get the smoke alarm

623
00:21:21.541 --> 00:21:23.847
to go off for the first hour.

624
00:21:23.978 --> 00:21:25.371
WALT:
[laughing]

625
00:21:25.501 --> 00:21:27.764
I still maintain that that
was because of

626
00:21:27.895 --> 00:21:28.765
a faulty battery.

627
00:21:28.896 --> 00:21:29.984
CASSIE:
Mmm.

628
00:21:30.114 --> 00:21:33.292
WALT:
I'm sorry I
resisted you on this.

629
00:21:33.422 --> 00:21:36.425
I avoided the Winter Festival
because I missed your mom.

630
00:21:36.556 --> 00:21:40.211
But I know that that's why
you were drawn to it,

631
00:21:40.342 --> 00:21:41.691
for the same reason.

632
00:21:41.822 --> 00:21:43.084
CASSIE:
I miss her too.

633
00:21:43.214 --> 00:21:44.781
I mean she always had a plan.

634
00:21:44.912 --> 00:21:47.610
Right now I don't have
anything figured out.

635
00:21:47.741 --> 00:21:51.005
WALT:
Well, your mom
didn't always have a plan.

636
00:21:51.135 --> 00:21:54.878
But she could
make things work.

637
00:21:55.009 --> 00:21:57.185
She did a lot of
traveling as a student.

638
00:21:57.316 --> 00:21:59.709
Actually it was
when she was abroad.

639
00:21:59.840 --> 00:22:00.623
That's when she first came
up with the

640
00:22:00.754 --> 00:22:01.929
Winter Festival idea.

641
00:22:02.059 --> 00:22:02.669
CASSIE:
Really?

642
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:04.018
WALT:
Oh yeah.

643
00:22:04.148 --> 00:22:05.933
She used to see all these
different people that would

644
00:22:06.063 --> 00:22:07.761
adhere to all these
traditions, but they somehow

645
00:22:07.891 --> 00:22:12.113
just didn't seem to have the
enthusiasm about it that she

646
00:22:12.243 --> 00:22:15.421
thought they should, and
so she wanted to create

647
00:22:15.551 --> 00:22:19.033
something that people would
just want to do and get

648
00:22:19.163 --> 00:22:21.383
involved with
year after year.

649
00:22:21.514 --> 00:22:22.515
CASSIE:
I know I did.

650
00:22:22.645 --> 00:22:24.386
WALT:
Me too.

651
00:22:24.517 --> 00:22:26.867
Your mom would be
honored to know that

652
00:22:26.997 --> 00:22:29.304
you're doing this.

653
00:22:29.435 --> 00:22:31.001
CASSIE:
Thank you.

654
00:22:31.132 --> 00:22:32.786
Hold that fanfare, because I
don't even know if I can

655
00:22:32.916 --> 00:22:34.091
pull this off.

656
00:22:34.222 --> 00:22:38.095
WALT:
We'll figure
it out together.

657
00:22:38.226 --> 00:22:39.358
CASSIE:
Cheers.

658
00:22:41.664 --> 00:22:46.234
[cart rattling]

659
00:22:46.800 --> 00:22:49.542
REGINALD:
The prince has
been contacted, my Lady.

660
00:22:49.672 --> 00:22:51.805
ARTHUR:
But he won't be
returning immediately.

661
00:22:51.935 --> 00:22:53.589
MARY:
You talked to him.

662
00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:54.590
ARTHUR:
Yes.

663
00:22:54.721 --> 00:22:55.896
MARY:
But he's
not coming home.

664
00:22:56.026 --> 00:22:58.159
ARTHUR:
Yes.

665
00:22:58.289 --> 00:23:00.640
MARY:
Well did you tell
him that I want him home?

666
00:23:00.770 --> 00:23:02.032
REGINALD:
That was communicated
to the prince,

667
00:23:02.163 --> 00:23:03.382
my Lady.

668
00:23:03.512 --> 00:23:05.819
MARY:
I see.

669
00:23:05.949 --> 00:23:08.648
Does he remember
that I am the Queen?

670
00:23:08.778 --> 00:23:10.476
REGINALD:
I'm certain he's aware.

671
00:23:10.606 --> 00:23:11.781
[chuckles]

672
00:23:11.912 --> 00:23:15.437
But with due respect, my
Lady, he is also a prince

673
00:23:15.568 --> 00:23:18.527
and it is a tendency of the
crown to do as it pleases.

674
00:23:18.658 --> 00:23:21.617
MARY:
True, true.

675
00:23:21.748 --> 00:23:24.403
Perhaps I've raised him
just a little bit too well.

676
00:23:24.533 --> 00:23:26.361
Be that as it may.

677
00:23:26.492 --> 00:23:27.188
You've talked to him.

678
00:23:27.318 --> 00:23:28.450
Which means you can find him.

679
00:23:28.581 --> 00:23:31.235
And you can bring him home.

680
00:23:31.366 --> 00:23:33.977
ARTHUR:
Might you have any
specific suggestions on how

681
00:23:34.108 --> 00:23:35.326
we do that?

682
00:23:35.457 --> 00:23:36.284
MARY:
Yes.

683
00:23:36.415 --> 00:23:39.113
You do it quickly.

684
00:23:39.548 --> 00:23:40.549
ARTHUR:
Thank you.

685
00:23:42.116 --> 00:23:43.160
REGINALD:
Do what
you have to do.

686
00:23:43.291 --> 00:23:45.249
ARTHUR:
Must I?

687
00:23:46.250 --> 00:23:47.251
Oh.

688
00:23:51.038 --> 00:23:52.039
CASSIE:
Hey, yeah.

689
00:23:52.169 --> 00:23:54.476
I need 15 full sized
Christmas trees.

690
00:23:54.607 --> 00:23:56.870
And is there any chance
you'd be willing to donate?

691
00:23:57.000 --> 00:24:01.701
[♪♪♪]

692
00:24:01.831 --> 00:24:03.442
CASSIE:
Hi, yeah.

693
00:24:03.572 --> 00:24:04.747
I was wondering how much
fruit cake is actually

694
00:24:04.878 --> 00:24:07.837
in a fruit cake unit?

695
00:24:07.968 --> 00:24:09.360
Oh.

696
00:24:09.491 --> 00:24:10.536
Wow.

697
00:24:10.666 --> 00:24:12.581
That is, that's a
lot of fruit cake.

698
00:24:12.712 --> 00:24:15.932
People actually buy that?

699
00:24:17.804 --> 00:24:18.805
No.

700
00:24:18.935 --> 00:24:20.415
The mistletoe is
not for eating.

701
00:24:20.546 --> 00:24:22.112
Hello?

702
00:24:23.984 --> 00:24:25.028
Oh, come on.

703
00:24:25.159 --> 00:24:25.986
Oh.

704
00:24:26.116 --> 00:24:26.813
Hey, I'm so sorry.

705
00:24:26.943 --> 00:24:28.728
I think we got cut off.

706
00:24:28.858 --> 00:24:31.687
But boughs of holly will be
no problem what so ever

707
00:24:31.818 --> 00:24:33.384

mistletoe in a pinch.

you talking about?

CASSIE:
Ethan?

710
00:24:37.214 --> 00:24:38.389
ETHAN:
What's with all
the Christmas talk?

711
00:24:38.520 --> 00:24:40.043
Boughs of holly?

712
00:24:40.174 --> 00:24:41.131
Are you serious?

713
00:24:41.262 --> 00:24:43.003
CASSIE:
Oh yeah.

714
00:24:43.133 --> 00:24:45.440
I'm just getting into
the Christmas spirit.

715
00:24:45.571 --> 00:24:46.267
ETHAN:
Why?

716
00:24:46.397 --> 00:24:47.311
We don't even like Christmas.

717
00:24:47.442 --> 00:24:47.964
CASSIE:
You don't
like Christmas.

718
00:24:48.095 --> 00:24:49.575
I love everything about it.

719
00:24:49.705 --> 00:24:51.751
ETHAN:
Oh my God,
you are so cute.

720
00:24:51.881 --> 00:24:53.143
Hey, listen.

721
00:24:53.274 --> 00:24:55.015
They want to move the
presentation up to the 24th.

722
00:24:55.145 --> 00:25:00.020
CASSIE:
But, that's,
um... That's Christmas Eve.

723

ETHAN:
I know.

724
00:25:01.412 --> 00:25:04.851
But we are one step closer
to that big promotion.

725
00:25:04.981 --> 00:25:08.202
And, even better, we get to
spend New Years together.

726
00:25:08.332 --> 00:25:09.029
CASSIE:
Yeah, you know what?

727
00:25:09.159 --> 00:25:09.986
Yes.

728
00:25:10.117 --> 00:25:11.553
Um, I gotta get going though.

729
00:25:11.684 --> 00:25:14.121
I just, I got a lot to do.

730
00:25:14.251 --> 00:25:15.252
ETHAN:
Yeah, right.

731
00:25:15.383 --> 00:25:17.646
Okay, I'll call you later.

732
00:25:17.777 --> 00:25:18.647

wondering how much for

twelve dozen?

739
00:25:38.101 --> 00:25:39.581
No, twelve...

is but I need 12 of those.

Yeah, I just was, if
I could just get 12 dozen.

745
00:25:54.901 --> 00:25:57.120

I don't think I

NICHOLAS:
No, you didn't.

00:26:19.142 --> 00:26:20.361
Did you?

759
00:26:20.491 --> 00:26:22.276
CASSIE:
Do you just kind
of do whatever you want?

760
00:26:22.406 --> 00:26:24.800
NICHOLAS:
I have been accused
of that a time or two, yeah.

761
00:26:24.931 --> 00:26:26.149
You want to talk about it?

762
00:26:26.280 --> 00:26:26.933

Talk about what?

763
00:26:27.063 --> 00:26:28.021
NICHOLAS:
Whatever that was?

764
00:26:28.151 --> 00:26:30.240
CASSIE:
That was a, um...

765
00:26:30.371 --> 00:26:33.592
Boutique bakery that normally
does large pastry orders for

766
00:26:33.722 --> 00:26:35.811
the Festival but because
they normally get months in

767
00:26:35.942 --> 00:26:38.031
advance and I've asked them
too close to Christmas...

768
00:26:38.161 --> 00:26:39.119
NICHOLAS:
They laughed in your face.

769
00:26:39.249 --> 00:26:39.902
CASSIE:
Thank you for
reminding me about

770
00:26:40.033 --> 00:26:41.208
what just happened.

771
00:26:41.338 --> 00:26:43.166

So, what
are we gonna do?

CASSIE:

773
00:26:44.037 --> 00:26:45.516
I don't know.

774
00:26:45.647 --> 00:26:46.996
The clock is running out
and the closer it gets to

775
00:26:47.127 --> 00:26:48.694
Christmas the harder
it's gonna get.

776
00:26:48.824 --> 00:26:51.522
I just think that maybe
Dad and Melinda were right.

777
00:26:51.653 --> 00:26:52.959
NICHOLAS:
Okay, so the
cookies can't be

778
00:26:53.089 --> 00:26:54.613

779
00:26:54.743 --> 00:26:56.484

could be made?

CASSIE:
Are you crazy?

781
00:26:58.181 --> 00:27:01.576
I cannot possibly make
extra cookies and, and do

782
00:27:01.707 --> 00:27:05.449
everything I need to do.

783
00:27:06.973 --> 00:27:08.844
NICHOLAS:
Maybe you can't,
but we can.

784
00:27:09.410 --> 00:27:10.106
CASSIE:
Absolutely not.

785
00:27:10.237 --> 00:27:11.455
I told you last night.

786
00:27:11.586 --> 00:27:13.327
NICHOLAS:
What is your
issue with me helping you?

787
00:27:13.457 --> 00:27:14.110
CASSIE:
Because you're rude.

788
00:27:14.241 --> 00:27:15.068
And you're arrogant.

789
00:27:15.198 --> 00:27:16.504
To start with.

790
00:27:16.635 --> 00:27:19.463
NICHOLAS:
And, I'm the only
chance that you've got.

791
00:27:20.116 --> 00:27:21.335
You can't do this alone.

792
00:27:21.465 --> 00:27:23.250
CASSIE:
I have my dad.

793
00:27:23.380 --> 00:27:25.426
I've got my dad.

794
00:27:25.556 --> 00:27:26.253
NICHOLAS:
Okay, you've
said it yourself.

795
00:27:26.383 --> 00:27:27.558
You're up against
the clock, right?

796
00:27:27.689 --> 00:27:29.996
And if you want to make this
festival happen, you need

797
00:27:30.126 --> 00:27:32.128
all the help you can get.

798
00:27:32.259 --> 00:27:33.303
We can do this!

799
00:27:33.434 --> 00:27:35.654

801
00:27:38.482 --> 00:27:39.962
Can I just ask you why?

802
00:27:40.093 --> 00:27:41.660
NICHOLAS:
Why what?

803
00:27:41.790 --> 00:27:42.617
CASSIE:
Why do you even care?

804
00:27:42.748 --> 00:27:43.836
You're not from here.

805
00:27:43.966 --> 00:27:46.839
I mean what is the
Winter Festival to you?

806
00:27:46.969 --> 00:27:48.057
NICHOLAS:
Okay.

807
00:27:48.188 --> 00:27:52.888
I come from a place where
tradition is strictly

808
00:27:53.019 --> 00:27:56.152
observed but often simply
because that's the way

809
00:27:56.283 --> 00:27:58.764
it's always been.

810
00:27:58.894 --> 00:28:00.243
This, this...

811
00:28:00.374 --> 00:28:03.072
feels like it has purpose.

812
00:28:03.203 --> 00:28:04.813
I like that.

813
00:28:06.206 --> 00:28:10.471

That was a
very insightful answer.

CASSIE:
Nicholas?

816
00:28:14.257 --> 00:28:17.173
Yeah, I guess we haven't
been formally introduced.

817
00:28:17.304 --> 00:28:18.914
NICHOLAS:
Not in the
traditional sense, no.

818
00:28:19.045 --> 00:28:21.743
But you have made
quite the impression.

CASSIE:
I don't know.

828
00:28:44.157 --> 00:28:45.680
I'm still not convinced
it wasn't a total lapse of

829

great that he's volunteering

It's a small town.

879
00:30:36.835 --> 00:30:37.139
NICHOLAS:
Yeah, yeah.

880
00:30:37.270 --> 00:30:38.706
I did.

881
00:30:38.837 --> 00:30:40.142
WALT:
Well of all the books
here, how come that one?

882
00:30:40.273 --> 00:30:42.101
I mean, not that I'm not
flattered on behalf

883
00:30:42.231 --> 00:30:44.233
of the town.

884
00:30:44.364 --> 00:30:45.452
NICHOLAS:
Honestly I was just
looking for more information

885
00:30:45.582 --> 00:30:46.627
on the Festival.

886
00:30:46.757 --> 00:30:48.237
WALT:
Oh?

887
00:30:48.368 --> 00:30:50.500
NICHOLAS:
Yeah, it's kind
of the reason I came here.

888
00:30:50.631 --> 00:30:54.026
WALT:
You travelled here
for the Winter Festival.

889
00:30:54.156 --> 00:30:56.506
I-I-I didn't know that
anybody knew about it

890
00:30:56.637 --> 00:30:58.204
outside the area.

891
00:30:58.334 --> 00:30:59.770
NICHOLAS:
Oh yeah, no,
don't be so modest.

892
00:30:59.901 --> 00:31:01.860
I mean, it got a nice
bit of attention.

893
00:31:01.990 --> 00:31:04.775
I think there was even a
magazine article that

894
00:31:04.906 --> 00:31:06.690
called it "one of the Eastern
seaboard's finest

895
00:31:06.821 --> 00:31:08.997
Christmas celebration"?

896
00:31:09.128 --> 00:31:09.476
WALT:
That's right.

897
00:31:09.606 --> 00:31:10.346
I recall.

898
00:31:10.477 --> 00:31:11.957
Yeah.

899
00:31:12.087 --> 00:31:13.480
But, but that was years ago.

900
00:31:13.610 --> 00:31:14.960
You must have
just been a child.

901
00:31:15.090 --> 00:31:17.484
And, I don't know of any
children that read

902
00:31:17.614 --> 00:31:19.616
travel periodicals.

903
00:31:19.747 --> 00:31:21.880
NICHOLAS:
No, I guess not.

904
00:31:22.010 --> 00:31:26.014
I mean, I guess I was just
captivated with the story

905
00:31:26.145 --> 00:31:27.276
of this place.

906
00:31:27.407 --> 00:31:29.713
I mean, it's so different
than where I grew up.

907
00:31:29.844 --> 00:31:32.194
And I kind of wanted
to see it, just once.

908
00:31:32.325 --> 00:31:36.285
WALT:
So you came all
that way for this?

909
00:31:36.416 --> 00:31:37.896
NICHOLAS:
My family's in business.

910
00:31:38.026 --> 00:31:43.075
And so much of our lives are
centered around the details

911
00:31:43.205 --> 00:31:45.555
and the protocol that
comes along with that.

912
00:31:45.686 --> 00:31:47.688
Moments that were purely
sentimental were few

913
00:31:47.818 --> 00:31:50.038
and far between.

914
00:31:50.169 --> 00:31:52.519
I mean, based on the
articles, the importance of

915
00:31:52.649 --> 00:31:55.304
sentiment and taking those
moments seemed to be what

916
00:31:55.435 --> 00:31:56.784
the Festival was all about.

917
00:31:56.915 --> 00:32:01.049
And so yeah, I guess I came
here to find that and just

918
00:32:01.180 --> 00:32:04.009
see a real Christmas.

919
00:32:04.139 --> 00:32:06.402
WALT:
Where did you say
you were from again?

920
00:32:06.533 --> 00:32:08.535
NICHOLAS:
There's a little
patch of land nestled between

921
00:32:08.665 --> 00:32:09.840
the Swiss Alps
and the North Sea.

922
00:32:09.971 --> 00:32:10.885
Oh.

923
00:32:11.016 --> 00:32:13.975
[♪♪♪]

924
00:32:14.106 --> 00:32:15.237
CASSIE:
Hi.

925
00:32:15.368 --> 00:32:16.064
Yeah.

926
00:32:16.195 --> 00:32:17.587
Yes, it's me again.

927
00:32:17.718 --> 00:32:19.546
I was just wondering if you
have any Christmas trees

928
00:32:19.676 --> 00:32:21.635
that...

929
00:32:21.765 --> 00:32:23.376
No, you're still sold out.

930
00:32:23.506 --> 00:32:24.812
Okay.

931
00:32:24.943 --> 00:32:25.726
Yes.

932
00:32:25.856 --> 00:32:27.206
'Kay.

933
00:32:28.337 --> 00:32:29.077
How can we have a Winter
Festival without

934
00:32:29.208 --> 00:32:30.774
Christmas trees?

935
00:32:30.905 --> 00:32:32.428
NICHOLAS:
Is there anything
I can do to help?

936
00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:34.387
CASSIE:
Unless you can grow
trees in the next 12 days,

937
00:32:34.517 --> 00:32:35.562
I don't think we're going to
have any Christmas trees

938
00:32:35.692 --> 00:32:37.694
for the Winter Festival.

939
00:32:37.825 --> 00:32:39.392
This is a disaster.

940
00:32:39.522 --> 00:32:41.089
We can't even find Christmas
trees at Christmas, and the

941
00:32:41.220 --> 00:32:44.005
one three that we do have
we can barely decorate.

942
00:32:44.136 --> 00:32:45.398
NICHOLAS:
Well frankly, I'm
just glad I'm not the only

943
00:32:45.528 --> 00:32:47.182
one having tree
related problems.

944
00:32:47.313 --> 00:32:48.531
CASSIE:
Woah woah woah.

945
00:32:48.662 --> 00:32:51.708
The reason that that tree
fell over is because you went

946
00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:55.234
and clumped tinsel into these
branches, and frankly,

947
00:32:55.364 --> 00:32:57.584
I don't even know
how that happened.

948
00:32:57.714 --> 00:33:00.021
NICHOLAS:
It seemed like
a practical approach.

949
00:33:00.152 --> 00:33:01.936
CASSIE:
Well, I'm
so... 'kay, woah.

950
00:33:02.067 --> 00:33:03.416
Christmas is not
about practicality.

951
00:33:03.546 --> 00:33:04.591
It's about feeling!

952
00:33:04.721 --> 00:33:06.767
NICHOLAS:
Let's not
knock practicality.

953
00:33:06.897 --> 00:33:09.770
Rules and structure all
the hallmarks of success.

954
00:33:09.900 --> 00:33:12.120
CASSIE:
And how did that
go for you with the tree?

955
00:33:12.251 --> 00:33:13.600
NICHOLAS:
Sometimes there's
trial and error.

956
00:33:13.730 --> 00:33:15.776
But I don't think charging
ahead without a plan is

957
00:33:15.906 --> 00:33:18.387
necessarily a recipe
for success either.

958
00:33:18.518 --> 00:33:21.477
WALT:
I know neither of you
want any advice from me,

959
00:33:21.608 --> 00:33:25.829
but how come it has to be
one way or another?

960
00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:28.006
CASSIE:
What are you saying?

961
00:33:28.136 --> 00:33:32.749
WALT:
Good planning is always
a mixture of practicality

962
00:33:32.880 --> 00:33:34.142
and feeling.

963
00:33:34.273 --> 00:33:36.057
CASSIE:
Of course.

964
00:33:36.188 --> 00:33:38.320
We've been going
about this all wrong.

965
00:33:38.451 --> 00:33:41.019
Rather than charging ahead
and tackling everything

966
00:33:41.149 --> 00:33:43.456
at once, we should be
dividing and conquering.

967
00:33:43.586 --> 00:33:45.632
Using our strengths.

968
00:33:45.762 --> 00:33:48.591
Like Nicholas has already
proven that he overthinks

969
00:33:48.722 --> 00:33:50.332
most tasks.

970
00:33:50.463 --> 00:33:53.379
NICHOLAS:
And Cassie's good
with leading with her heart,

971
00:33:53.509 --> 00:33:54.902
and not her mind.

972
00:33:55.033 --> 00:33:56.338
CASSIE:
And normally, I
would be offended by that.

973
00:33:56.469 --> 00:33:57.035
I think.

974
00:33:57.165 --> 00:33:58.514
But, you're right.

975
00:33:58.645 --> 00:33:59.385
Which means our differences
is what's actually going to

976
00:33:59.515 --> 00:34:00.516
make this happen.

977
00:34:00.647 --> 00:34:01.430
NICHOLAS:
How so?

978
00:34:01.561 --> 00:34:02.649
CASSIE:
I am formulating a plan.

979
00:34:02.779 --> 00:34:05.130
I just need to think.

980
00:34:05.260 --> 00:34:06.870
And maybe take the
tinsel out of my hair.

981
00:34:07.001 --> 00:34:07.697
Why don't we meet at
Dad's later on today?

982
00:34:07.828 --> 00:34:10.439
[door shutting]

983
00:34:10.570 --> 00:34:13.138
CASSIE:
I will stay and talk
to Melinda to make sure she

984
00:34:13.268 --> 00:34:15.575
is over the tree incident.

985
00:34:15.705 --> 00:34:17.185
NICHOLAS:
And I will duck out
for that exact same reason.

986
00:34:17.316 --> 00:34:17.881
CASSIE:
Thank you.

987
00:34:18.012 --> 00:34:19.318
I will apologize for you.

988
00:34:19.448 --> 00:34:20.101
NICHOLAS:
Thanks.

989
00:34:20.232 --> 00:34:20.710
CASSIE:
Yeah.

990
00:34:20.841 --> 00:34:21.755
Okay.

991
00:34:21.885 --> 00:34:22.582
WALT:
That's good, sweetie.

992
00:34:22.712 --> 00:34:22.973
CASSIE:
It is, it's great.

993
00:34:23.104 --> 00:34:23.626
It's great.

994
00:34:23.757 --> 00:34:24.323
I'm gonna grab this.

995
00:34:24.453 --> 00:34:25.541
I'm gonna grab this.

996
00:34:25.672 --> 00:34:26.673
WALT:
I think you're
on the right path.

997
00:34:26.803 --> 00:34:27.282
CASSIE:
Thank you.

998
00:34:27.413 --> 00:34:28.631

we spoke on the telephone?

Yes, well.

Since you answered, we used
the GPS on your phone

to find you.

1022
00:35:12.545 --> 00:35:13.894
Your mother insisted.

NICHOLAS:
She what?

1024
00:35:14.764 --> 00:35:15.896
She can't do that!

00:35:16.026 --> 00:35:18.116
ARTHUR:
With all due respect,
she's the Queen.

1026
00:35:18.246 --> 00:35:20.553
Which means she very
much can do that.

NICHOLAS:

1028
00:35:22.424 --> 00:35:24.122
I can't believe my own mother
hoodwinked me and then sent

1029
00:35:24.252 --> 00:35:25.819
someone to collect me
like the parcel post.

00:35:25.949 --> 00:35:26.646

Don't call me that.

ARTHUR:
I don't understand.

1035
00:35:30.954 --> 00:35:33.783
It's protocol to refer
to you by your title.

1036
00:35:35.263 --> 00:35:36.873
Do they not know that you're
the Royal Prince of...

Shh.

ARTHUR:
This is
highly unorthodox.

1040
00:35:43.271 --> 00:35:44.620
Do you mean to tell me that
the people of this town,

1041
00:35:44.751 --> 00:35:46.579
of this hamlet, have been
interacting with you as if

1042

you're a-a-a common citizen?

NICHOLAS:
Would you
keep it down, Arthur!

1044
00:35:50.496 --> 00:35:51.671
It's a little more
nuanced than that.

00:35:51.801 --> 00:35:52.759
ARTHUR:
Nuanced?

1046

I don't see how.

You come from a prestigious
lineage back from the pages

of history.

1049
00:35:58.156 --> 00:35:59.592
Your family name has input.

00:36:01.115 --> 00:36:02.160
NICHOLAS:
Cassie, hey.

1053
00:36:02.290 --> 00:36:02.986
CASSIE:
Hey.

1054
00:36:03.117 --> 00:36:03.422
NICHOLAS:
Hi.

1055
00:36:03.552 --> 00:36:05.163
[laughing]

1056
00:36:05.293 --> 00:36:06.164
Great to see you again.

1057
00:36:06.294 --> 00:36:07.600
CASSIE:
Good to see you too.

1058
00:36:07.730 --> 00:36:09.558
Is everything okay?

1059
00:36:09.689 --> 00:36:10.429
ARTHUR:
No.

1060
00:36:10.559 --> 00:36:11.908
NICHOLAS:
Yea... yeah, yeah.

1061
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:13.345
Just peachy.

1062
00:36:13.475 --> 00:36:17.262
I was just, just catching
up with my cousin, Arthur.

1063
00:36:17.392 --> 00:36:18.132
CASSIE:
Cousin?

1064
00:36:18.263 --> 00:36:19.177
You have family in town?

1065
00:36:19.307 --> 00:36:20.874
NICHOLAS:
Yeah, yeah.

1066
00:36:21.004 --> 00:36:22.615
No, he just decided to meet
me here for the holidays,

1067
00:36:22.745 --> 00:36:24.007
right?

1068
00:36:24.138 --> 00:36:25.661
It's good to be with
family for Christmas.

1069
00:36:25.792 --> 00:36:28.751
ARTHUR:
Yes, I love
a Christmas reunion.

1070
00:36:28.882 --> 00:36:30.188
NICHOLAS:
That's right.

1071
00:36:30.318 --> 00:36:31.363
CASSIE:
It's very
nice to meet you.

1072
00:36:31.493 --> 00:36:32.320
ARTHUR:
Yes, hello.

1073
00:36:32.451 --> 00:36:33.582
CASSIE:
Uh, okay.

1074
00:36:33.713 --> 00:36:35.105
Well, I will expect you
later at the meeting.

1075
00:36:35.236 --> 00:36:35.976
Are you going to be joining?

1076
00:36:36.106 --> 00:36:36.759
ARTHUR:
I shan't.

1077
00:36:36.890 --> 00:36:37.717
We're leaving.

1078
00:36:37.847 --> 00:36:38.413
NICHOLAS:
Oh, he'll be there.

1079
00:36:38.544 --> 00:36:39.762
CASSIE:
Oh, okay, great.

1080
00:36:39.893 --> 00:36:40.807
Well, it's nice meeting you.

1081
00:36:40.937 --> 00:36:44.376
[♪♪♪]

1082
00:36:44.506 --> 00:36:45.246
ARTHUR:
What's this meeting?

1083
00:36:45.377 --> 00:36:45.942
Why are you
speaking that way?

1084
00:36:46.073 --> 00:36:47.422
NICHOLAS:
[sighs]

1085
00:36:47.553 --> 00:36:48.815
My mother sent you here on
a mission to bring me back,

1086
00:36:48.945 --> 00:36:49.381
right?

1087
00:36:49.511 --> 00:36:50.643
ARTHUR:
Yes.

1088
00:36:50.773 --> 00:36:52.601
NICHOLAS:
Well in order to
complete that mission,

1089
00:36:52.732 --> 00:36:54.386
you must do one
for me, first.

1090
00:36:54.516 --> 00:36:56.039
ARTHUR:
No.

1091
00:36:56.170 --> 00:36:58.346
NICHOLAS:
Don't tell me 'no'.

1092
00:36:58.477 --> 00:36:59.869
Let's go.

1093
00:37:01.131 --> 00:37:05.701
[♪♪♪]

1094
00:37:05.832 --> 00:37:09.401
[phone chiming]

1095
00:37:09.531 --> 00:37:11.229
CASSIE:
Hey.

1096
00:37:11.359 --> 00:37:12.273
ETHAN:
Cassie, the execs are
starting to get really antsy

1097
00:37:12.404 --> 00:37:14.797
about getting
you here on time.

1098
00:37:14.928 --> 00:37:16.321
CASSIE:
Yeah, I know.

1099
00:37:16.451 --> 00:37:19.149
I'm just, I'm dealing
with some family stuff.

1100
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:21.456
If they could just give
me a couple more days.

1101
00:37:21.587 --> 00:37:22.588
ETHAN:
Look, I get it.

1102
00:37:22.718 --> 00:37:23.632
It's the holidays.

1103
00:37:23.763 --> 00:37:25.025
We all have family
stuff to deal with.

1104
00:37:25.155 --> 00:37:27.680
I mean I can put them off a
little bit longer, but we're

1105
00:37:27.810 --> 00:37:29.551
going to really need to
figure things out pronto.

1106
00:37:29.682 --> 00:37:30.944
They won't wait forever.

1107
00:37:31.074 --> 00:37:32.075
CASSIE:
Yeah, I know.

1108
00:37:32.206 --> 00:37:33.903
I know.

1109
00:37:34.034 --> 00:37:35.775
ETHAN:
How are those
new designs coming?

1110
00:37:35.905 --> 00:37:39.082
CASSIE:
Uh, they're perfect.

1111
00:37:39.213 --> 00:37:40.432
ETHAN:
You're the best.

1112
00:37:40.562 --> 00:37:41.868
Can't wait to see them.

1113
00:37:41.998 --> 00:37:44.610
CASSIE:
What is this?

1114
00:37:44.740 --> 00:37:49.049
ETHAN:
So if you can give me
an approximate idea of when

1115
00:37:49.179 --> 00:37:51.747
I'm gonna see them, I mean...

1116
00:37:51.878 --> 00:37:54.489
CASSIE:
Yeah, I'm gonna
have to call you back.

1117
00:37:55.055 --> 00:37:56.056
ETHAN:
Uh...

1118
00:37:56.186 --> 00:37:58.798
[♪♪♪]

1119
00:37:58.928 --> 00:38:00.016
CASSIE:
Eleanor.

1120
00:38:00.147 --> 00:38:05.848
[♪♪♪]

1121
00:38:05.979 --> 00:38:07.110
CASSIE:
"Dear Eleanore.

1122
00:38:07.241 --> 00:38:08.416
It's marvelous to see you
took your dream and

1123
00:38:08.547 --> 00:38:09.809
made it reality.

1124
00:38:09.939 --> 00:38:11.767
Your Winter Festival looks to
be everything you had

1125
00:38:11.898 --> 00:38:13.508
hoped and more.

1126
00:38:13.639 --> 00:38:16.294
Knowing you, I'm sure the
photos don't do it justice.

1127
00:38:16.424 --> 00:38:18.818
Perhaps one day I'll
get to see for myself.

1128
00:38:18.948 --> 00:38:21.908
I hope your husband and your
daughter are well and that

1129
00:38:22.038 --> 00:38:23.866
you all know how
truly lucky you are.

1130
00:38:23.997 --> 00:38:27.043
My regards at Christmas
and always, M".

1131
00:38:27.174 --> 00:38:28.567
Wow.

1132
00:38:28.697 --> 00:38:30.525
Mom got fan-mail for
the Winter Festival.

1133
00:38:30.656 --> 00:38:31.483
[chuckles]

1134
00:38:31.613 --> 00:38:32.788
I knew it was a big deal.

1135
00:38:32.919 --> 00:38:34.268
But who is 'M'?

1136
00:38:34.399 --> 00:38:39.447
[♪♪♪]

1137
00:38:39.578 --> 00:38:40.883
CASSIE:
Hey, mom!

1138
00:38:41.014 --> 00:38:42.102
[chuckles]

1139
00:38:42.232 --> 00:38:43.625
I remember that photo.

1140
00:38:43.756 --> 00:38:46.106
That was right in the middle
of planning the second

1141
00:38:46.236 --> 00:38:48.151
Winter Festival.

1142
00:38:48.282 --> 00:38:49.979
Oh, you could not
have been busier.

1143
00:38:50.110 --> 00:38:51.677
But you came downstairs and
said we were going to stay in

1144
00:38:51.807 --> 00:38:54.506
and have hot coco, and
finally decorate our

1145
00:38:54.636 --> 00:38:55.985
own tree.

1146
00:38:56.116 --> 00:38:57.900
Even though dad said
we did not have time.

1147
00:38:58.031 --> 00:39:00.120
But you were not having it.

1148
00:39:00.250 --> 00:39:02.209
You just said that if we
can't celebrate Christmas

1149
00:39:02.340 --> 00:39:05.778
at home, how can we help
everyone else celebrate?

1150
00:39:06.561 --> 00:39:07.649
After all, Christmas...

1151
00:39:07.780 --> 00:39:10.696
BOTH:
Christmas
starts with us.

1152
00:39:10.826 --> 00:39:12.567
CASSIE:
Hey.

1153
00:39:12.698 --> 00:39:15.004
I really just want
to get this right.

1154
00:39:15.135 --> 00:39:16.310
I want to make her proud.

1155
00:39:16.441 --> 00:39:17.877
WALT:
Oh, honey.

1156
00:39:18.007 --> 00:39:19.531
It doesn't matter
what happens.

1157
00:39:19.661 --> 00:39:21.489
She already is.

1158
00:39:21.620 --> 00:39:22.882
CASSIE:
Thank you.

1159
00:39:23.012 --> 00:39:24.100
[chuckles]

1160
00:39:24.884 --> 00:39:25.275
WALT:
You know what?

1161
00:39:25.406 --> 00:39:26.538
I remember that day.

1162
00:39:26.668 --> 00:39:27.103
CASSIE:
Yeah?

1163
00:39:27.234 --> 00:39:28.931
[laughing]

1164
00:39:29.062 --> 00:39:31.412
ARTHUR:
She could
not be more irate!

1165
00:39:31.543 --> 00:39:33.501
NICHOLAS:
My mother is
always upset about something.

1166
00:39:33.632 --> 00:39:34.676
ARTHUR:
No, no.

1167
00:39:34.807 --> 00:39:36.243
Not like this.

1168
00:39:36.374 --> 00:39:39.202
She wants, no, needs you home
for the Royal Christmas Ball.

1169
00:39:39.333 --> 00:39:41.422
NICHOLAS:
And I told you I'm
not going until I help these

1170
00:39:41.553 --> 00:39:42.989
people have their festival.

1171
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:44.556
ARTHUR:
How... are you
listening to yourself?

1172
00:39:44.686 --> 00:39:47.167
I don't think you
understand the urgency here.

1173
00:39:47.297 --> 00:39:49.822
NICHOLAS:
Urgency is a matter
of perspective, Arthur.

1174
00:39:49.952 --> 00:39:52.172
ARTHUR:
With all due respect,
your highness, but I believe

1175
00:39:52.302 --> 00:39:54.566
it is you who is
lacking perspective.

1176
00:39:54.696 --> 00:39:57.525
Some small-town gathering
pales in comparison to the

1177
00:39:57.656 --> 00:39:59.222
Royal Christmas Ball.

1178
00:39:59.353 --> 00:40:00.702
NICHOLAS:
I disagree.

1179
00:40:00.833 --> 00:40:02.530
ARTHUR: [shouting]
How could you possibly...

1180
00:40:03.313 --> 00:40:04.314
[collected]
How could
you possibly disagree?

1181
00:40:04.445 --> 00:40:07.405
NICHOLAS:
Because, it's significant to me.

1182
00:40:07.535 --> 00:40:08.188
ARTHUR:
Yes.

1183
00:40:08.318 --> 00:40:09.189
Right.

1184
00:40:09.319 --> 00:40:09.885
Well.

1185
00:40:10.016 --> 00:40:10.495
[clears throat]

1186
00:40:10.625 --> 00:40:11.713
Yes.

1187
00:40:11.844 --> 00:40:12.627
[sighs]

1188
00:40:12.758 --> 00:40:13.759
I did not want to
have to do this.

1189
00:40:13.889 --> 00:40:15.325
But.

1190
00:40:15.456 --> 00:40:17.023
There's something
you need to know.

1191
00:40:17.153 --> 00:40:18.807
NICHOLAS:
And what's that?

1192
00:40:18.938 --> 00:40:20.461
ARTHUR:
On the Christmas of
the 35th year of the Heir of

1193
00:40:20.592 --> 00:40:23.377
[indistinct], which for
you is this year, the Royal

1194
00:40:23.508 --> 00:40:26.075
Christmas Ball becomes a
lawful right of passage in

1195
00:40:26.206 --> 00:40:29.209
the form of a Christmas
Coronation, a legal event,

1196
00:40:29.339 --> 00:40:31.690
and official act which
secures your place

1197
00:40:31.820 --> 00:40:33.431
on the thrown.

1198
00:40:33.561 --> 00:40:35.868
Now, if you're not present on
Christmas Day to participate

1199
00:40:35.998 --> 00:40:38.436
in the Ceremony, then
Ancient Law dictates that

1200
00:40:38.566 --> 00:40:41.003
you abdicate the throne, and
the Royal Line will end,

1201
00:40:41.134 --> 00:40:43.049
dissolving the
monarchy forever.

1202
00:40:43.179 --> 00:40:44.616
NICHOLAS:
I know.

1203
00:40:44.746 --> 00:40:46.922
ARTHUR:
Right, which is why
it's precie... Wait, what?

1204
00:40:47.053 --> 00:40:47.662
What?

1205
00:40:47.793 --> 00:40:48.489
What do you mean?

1206
00:40:48.620 --> 00:40:49.534
What do you mean you know?

1207
00:40:49.664 --> 00:40:50.926
NICHOLAS:
I mean
I know, Arthur.

1208
00:40:51.057 --> 00:40:54.103
I'm the crown prince
of the entire country.

1209
00:40:54.234 --> 00:40:55.757
What makes you think
I wouldn't know that?

1210
00:40:55.888 --> 00:40:58.064
It's literally been part
of my family's history

1211
00:40:58.194 --> 00:40:59.631
for centuries.

1212
00:40:59.761 --> 00:41:02.460
ARTHUR:
But on the telephone,
you said it was, it was

1213
00:41:02.590 --> 00:41:05.898
another celebration,
for show.

1214
00:41:06.028 --> 00:41:07.377
NICHOLAS:
Isn't it?

1215
00:41:07.508 --> 00:41:08.422
ARTHUR:
This is not
a game, Nicholas.

1216
00:41:08.553 --> 00:41:09.423
NICHOLAS:
I know!

1217
00:41:09.554 --> 00:41:12.731
It's my life.

1218
00:41:12.861 --> 00:41:16.082
ARTHUR:
With all due respect,
your Highness, what is really

1219
00:41:16.212 --> 00:41:18.127
going on here?

1220
00:41:18.258 --> 00:41:19.694
Is this about that woman
that you mentioned?

1221
00:41:19.825 --> 00:41:20.826
The one you're working with?

1222
00:41:20.956 --> 00:41:21.391
NICHOLAS:
What?

1223
00:41:21.522 --> 00:41:22.001
No.

1225

If it is, your mother has
already selected several

1226

candidates from the royal
lines of neighboring nations.

1227

most amenable match

1228

I don't.

1234
00:41:44.197 --> 00:41:47.461

that that is not what

1235

this is about.

1236
00:41:48.767 --> 00:41:52.118
And yet, it is exactly
what this is about.

not following, sir.

Everything in my
life is decided for me,

1239

to the extent that you're
standing here telling me that

1240
00:42:00.518 --> 00:42:03.085
my mother is thinking about
who I should marry without

1241
00:42:03.216 --> 00:42:07.394
even consulting me.

1242
00:42:07.873 --> 00:42:10.702
My world is dictated by
centuries old rules

1243
00:42:10.832 --> 00:42:12.268
and traditions.

1244
00:42:12.399 --> 00:42:15.794
Every decision, every step
has been part of some grand

1245
00:42:15.924 --> 00:42:19.580
plan decided by
someone ages ago.

1246
00:42:19.711 --> 00:42:21.016
I live in a me-centric world
that I actually have no

1247

ARTHUR:
Sir...

1249
00:42:23.018 --> 00:42:27.588
NICHOLAS:
Let me finish, Arthur.

1250
00:42:28.850 --> 00:42:32.767
When I first heard about this
place and their small town

1251
00:42:32.898 --> 00:42:34.769
gathering, as you called it.

1252
00:42:34.900 --> 00:42:37.946
I saw a group of people
coming together to do

1253
00:42:38.077 --> 00:42:42.690
something good.

1254
00:42:42.821 --> 00:42:46.955
And I wanted to know if only
once, what it was like to be

1255
00:42:47.086 --> 00:42:49.044
part of something like that.

1256
00:42:49.175 --> 00:42:55.094
Rather than have everything
just be about me.

1257
00:42:56.008 --> 00:42:57.662
ARTHUR:
Well it's a
beautiful sentiment, sir.

1258
00:42:57.792 --> 00:43:01.143
The fact remains that
time is of the essence.

1259
00:43:01.274 --> 00:43:03.537
NICHOLAS:
Ah, now that is true.

1260
00:43:03.668 --> 00:43:04.886
And not just for me.

1261
00:43:05.017 --> 00:43:07.541
But for these people too.

1262
00:43:07.672 --> 00:43:09.238
When I got here and
discovered that the Festival

1263
00:43:09.369 --> 00:43:12.590
was no longer, I was crushed.

1264
00:43:12.720 --> 00:43:14.461
Until I found this one woman.

1265
00:43:14.592 --> 00:43:20.815
This one insufferable woman
who was trying to bring it

1266
00:43:20.946 --> 00:43:25.211
back for an even more
normal cause than before.

1267
00:43:25.341 --> 00:43:27.213
So I agreed to help her.

1268
00:43:27.343 --> 00:43:28.997
And the clock is
ticking for her too.

1269
00:43:29.128 --> 00:43:30.042
ARTHUR:
Your Highness...

1270
00:43:30.172 --> 00:43:31.565
NICHOLAS:
I'll make
you a deal, Arthur.

1271
00:43:31.696 --> 00:43:35.613
If, and only if you help me
help these people get their

1272
00:43:35.743 --> 00:43:39.442
festival into a workable
place before Christmas, then

1273
00:43:39.573 --> 00:43:44.317
and only then I will return
with you for the coronation.

NICHOLAS:
If it's not
for you, that's alright.

1276
00:43:46.188 --> 00:43:48.582
I understand.

1277
00:43:48.713 --> 00:43:50.584
You'll just have to go home
and explain to my mother

1278
00:43:50.715 --> 00:43:54.675
why it is you passed up a
chance to save the Crown.

this Winter Festival works.

everybody's attention.

Thank you.

1286
00:44:13.520 --> 00:44:15.783
As you know, I have gathered
you all here today to talk

1287
00:44:15.914 --> 00:44:18.351
about the revival of the
Winter Festival which will

1288
00:44:18.481 --> 00:44:19.961
then use the proceeds to
help keep the library

1289
00:44:20.092 --> 00:44:21.310
from closing.

1290
00:44:21.441 --> 00:44:24.487
Now, in past years, it has
taken months to plan this

1291
00:44:24.618 --> 00:44:27.316
festival dealing with food
vendors and other booth

1292
00:44:27.447 --> 00:44:29.275
vendors, and more!

1293
00:44:29.405 --> 00:44:30.755
From all over the state.

1294

But as we've discovered, it's
just not possible this

close to Christmas.

MELINDA:
I knew it.

1297
00:44:37.413 --> 00:44:39.938

But no, Nicholas came up
with the idea that maybe

1298
00:44:40.068 --> 00:44:42.549
we could tackle some of
these tasks ourselves.

1299

It's true, I did.

Shh.

were defeated by a tree.

1304
00:44:47.859 --> 00:44:49.034
CASSIE:
But then I
realized something.

1305
00:44:49.164 --> 00:44:51.776
I have been so worried about
what this festival used

1306
00:44:51.906 --> 00:44:55.301
to be, I am completely
missing what it could be.

What do you mean?

CASSIE:
Think about it, Dad.

1309
00:44:57.607 --> 00:44:59.566
The festival is not about
fancy booths or

1310
00:44:59.697 --> 00:45:01.481
five star vendors.

1311
00:45:01.611 --> 00:45:03.962
It's about community.

1312
00:45:04.092 --> 00:45:07.139
Which is kind of cool,
because that means everything

1313
00:45:07.269 --> 00:45:08.880
and everyone that we could
possibly need to put this

1314
00:45:09.010 --> 00:45:10.708

Well, it's like what you
told me at the coffee shop.

1321

We all bring different things
to the table, and if we work

1322

do this together.

You have access to pretty
much everybody in the town,

planning, and structure, and

going to get that?

ARTHUR:
I shan't.

1397
00:49:31.794 --> 00:49:33.579
It's Dr Humphries, returning
my call about the

1398
00:49:33.709 --> 00:49:35.755

Well that
sounds pressing.

No it's not.

1401
00:49:37.844 --> 00:49:40.281
It can wait.

1402
00:49:40.412 --> 00:49:42.414
It can't wait.

1403
00:49:42.544 --> 00:49:44.416
Dr Humphries, hello!

1404
00:49:44.546 --> 00:49:45.939
NICHOLAS:
In that case, will
you help me take a look at

1405
00:49:46.070 --> 00:49:47.288
these booth layouts?

1406
00:49:47.419 --> 00:49:49.116
I'm thinking it might be a
bit of a mistake to put a

Well, I don't know.

1418

I do think if we
put the candy canes next to

00:50:27.807 --> 00:50:29.765

You look exhausted.

00:50:40.515 --> 00:50:41.342
I think you need a break.

NICHOLAS:
No no no.

We just finished the
decoration layout,

00:50:48.436 --> 00:50:49.220

He tuckered himself out and I
think he definitely needs it.

I'll grab our coats.

What is this?

1451
00:51:16.551 --> 00:51:18.162
NICHOLAS:
You know how I told
you that I had heard about

1452
00:51:18.292 --> 00:51:19.946
the festival and that's
what brought me here?

1453
00:51:20.077 --> 00:51:21.730
CASSIE:
Yeah?

1454
00:51:21.861 --> 00:51:23.863
NICHOLAS:
This is how.

1455
00:51:23.993 --> 00:51:25.995
I found these letters in one
of my mother's old books at

1456
00:51:26.126 --> 00:51:28.694
our house and they had these
press clippings and these

1457
00:51:28.824 --> 00:51:30.826
photos, and I just, I fell
in love with the idea.

1458
00:51:30.957 --> 00:51:33.481
I had to see it for myself.

1459
00:51:33.612 --> 00:51:34.439
CASSIE:
These were
in your house?

1460
00:51:34.569 --> 00:51:35.788
NICHOLAS:
Yeah, yeah.

1461
00:51:35.918 --> 00:51:39.052
Long forgotten relics of
my mother's school days.

1462
00:51:39.183 --> 00:51:40.097
It's unusual, I know.

1463
00:51:40.227 --> 00:51:42.795
But not unlikely.

1464
00:51:42.925 --> 00:51:45.189
Things get lost in old books
at our house all the time.

1465
00:51:45.319 --> 00:51:47.582
CASSIE:
No, this
is very unlikely.

1466
00:51:47.713 --> 00:51:48.801
NICHOLAS:
How so?

1467
00:51:48.931 --> 00:51:50.759
CASSIE:
Well this writing.

1468
00:51:50.890 --> 00:51:55.242
It's my mother's handwriting.

1469
00:51:58.245 --> 00:51:59.638
CASSIE:
It's crazy.

1470
00:51:59.768 --> 00:52:01.509
NICHOLAS:
I know, but are you
sure that it's your mother's

1471
00:52:01.640 --> 00:52:03.120
handwriting?

1472
00:52:03.250 --> 00:52:04.469
CASSIE:
It's my mother, I
grew up with her handwriting,

1473
00:52:04.599 --> 00:52:06.210
I would know it anywhere.

1474
00:52:06.340 --> 00:52:09.735
The question is how did the
letters get in your house?

1475
00:52:09.865 --> 00:52:10.997
NICHOLAS:
Well they're
addressed to my mother but

1476
00:52:11.128 --> 00:52:12.694
she's not exactly the
"keep in touch" type.

Oh, so making
friends runs in the family.

CASSIE:
[laughing]

1480
00:52:18.265 --> 00:52:20.746
NICHOLAS:
No, and honestly,
she could have just put that

1481
00:52:20.876 --> 00:52:22.878
in some old book years ago
and forgotten about it.

1482
00:52:23.009 --> 00:52:25.272
She reads a lot.

1483
00:52:25.403 --> 00:52:26.882
CASSIE:
Does your mom
want to buy a library?

1484
00:52:27.013 --> 00:52:28.362
NICHOLAS:
Unfortunately
she already has one.

I just, I
think it's amazing.

1487
00:52:35.239 --> 00:52:36.196
To see what she wrote
about my dad and I

1488
00:52:36.327 --> 00:52:37.980
in those letters?

1489
00:52:38.111 --> 00:52:40.157
I mean, and what are the
chances that she could write

1490
00:52:40.287 --> 00:52:42.768
something that could
actually bring somebody here?

1491
00:52:42.898 --> 00:52:46.250
Let alone somebody who's
helping with the festival?

1492
00:52:46.380 --> 00:52:47.686
NICHOLAS:
Maybe it
was meant to be.

1493
00:52:49.035 --> 00:52:49.818

Maybe my mom did
pull off one final

You know, I really
wish I could have met her.

hours until you pretty much

couldn't feel
your toes anymore.

1513
00:53:19.239 --> 00:53:21.198
And then we would just go to
the library to warm up,

1514
00:53:21.328 --> 00:53:23.243
and have some of her
special hot chocolate.

I know,
don't tell Melinda.

far without breaking

read for hours, and I'm

and you know, as much to
follow a dream but also just

1535

saying about the blankets is

00:59:06.804 --> 00:59:09.197
if we give them a blanket at
the snow cone station, then

1631
00:59:09.328 --> 00:59:11.112
they can warm up and enjoy
hot cider before they move on

01:02:51.637 --> 01:02:52.594
Can I talk to
you for a second?

1739
01:02:52.725 --> 01:02:53.813
NICHOLAS:
Yeah, I
gotta talk to you too.

1740
01:02:53.944 --> 01:02:54.858
CASSIE:
No, really, I've
been meaning to tell you,

1741
01:02:54.988 --> 01:02:56.120
and now...

1742
01:02:56.250 --> 01:02:57.121
ARTHUR:
Hello.

1743
01:02:57.251 --> 01:02:58.470
May I talk to you?

1744
01:02:58.600 --> 01:02:59.471
CASSIE:
No, can we
just have one...

1745
01:02:59.601 --> 01:03:00.428
NICHOLAS:
Just one second...

1746
01:03:00.559 --> 01:03:01.255
CASSIE:
No, please.

1747
01:03:01.386 --> 01:03:02.779
ARTHUR:
Please.

1748
01:03:02.909 --> 01:03:04.084
[clears throat]

1749
01:03:04.215 --> 01:03:05.738
NICHOLAS:
Yeah, um.

1750
01:03:05.869 --> 01:03:06.478
Just give us a minute?

1751
01:03:06.608 --> 01:03:08.262
CASSIE:
Yeah.

1752
01:03:08.393 --> 01:03:09.786
ARTHUR:
So sorry.

1753
01:03:13.006 --> 01:03:14.486
CASSIE:
[sighs]

1754
01:03:18.533 --> 01:03:18.969
WALT:
Hey.

1755
01:03:19.099 --> 01:03:20.448
CASSIE:
Hey!

1756
01:03:20.579 --> 01:03:23.974
WALT:
So, you two set
aside your differences?

1757
01:03:24.104 --> 01:03:25.192
CASSIE:
Oh, dad.

1758
01:03:25.323 --> 01:03:26.498
Don't be foolish.

1759
01:03:26.628 --> 01:03:28.587
He is still stubborn and
completely frustrating.

1760
01:03:28.717 --> 01:03:32.504
But he's charming and
a little handsome.

1761
01:03:32.634 --> 01:03:36.116
WALT:
Well, I'm just glad
to see you smiling again.

1762
01:03:36.247 --> 01:03:37.901
CASSIE:
You know, I found
out something incredible

1763
01:03:38.031 --> 01:03:39.250
yesterday, and I cannot
believe I haven't

1764
01:03:39.380 --> 01:03:40.381
told you yet.

1765
01:03:40.512 --> 01:03:41.818
WALT:
Oh?

1766
01:03:41.948 --> 01:03:43.776
CASSIE:
Yeah, we were
working at Nicholas's

1767
01:03:43.907 --> 01:03:45.473
bed and breakfast, and he's
got these letters.

1768
01:03:45.604 --> 01:03:48.172
WALT:
Letters?

1769
01:03:49.086 --> 01:03:50.130
Well.

1770
01:03:51.131 --> 01:03:52.872
ARTHUR:
I told you
this would happen!

1771
01:03:53.003 --> 01:03:54.874
NICHOLAS:
You need to calm down.

1772
01:03:55.005 --> 01:03:56.702
I just need a few more days.

1773
01:03:56.833 --> 01:03:58.791
ARTHUR:
Yes, well we don't
have a few more days.

1774
01:03:58.922 --> 01:04:00.445
My job is on the line.

1775
01:04:00.575 --> 01:04:03.100
My family's honor
is on the line.

1776
01:04:03.230 --> 01:04:05.319
We have served the Crown
of Verovia for centuries.

1777
01:04:05.450 --> 01:04:07.800
I cannot have it end because
of someone who doesn't even

1778
01:04:07.931 --> 01:04:08.845
care about the throne!

1779
01:04:08.975 --> 01:04:11.673
NICHOLS:
I care about the throne.

1780
01:04:11.804 --> 01:04:14.285
It is my family's throne.

1781
01:04:14.415 --> 01:04:16.853
You're letting my
mother get to you.

1782
01:04:16.983 --> 01:04:19.986
ARTHUR:
Yes, yes, of course
I'm letting her get to me.

1783
01:04:20.117 --> 01:04:22.336
She could literally send
an army to retrieve us.

1784
01:04:22.467 --> 01:04:23.468
An army.

1785
01:04:23.598 --> 01:04:24.469
Is that worth it to you?

1786
01:04:24.599 --> 01:04:25.818
For a Christmas party?

1787
01:04:25.949 --> 01:04:28.429
An international
militaristic event?

1788
01:04:28.560 --> 01:04:30.301
NICHOLAS:
I will not
be bullied by you.

1789
01:04:30.431 --> 01:04:31.519
Nor my mother.

1790
01:04:31.650 --> 01:04:33.652
ARTHUR:
[scoffs]

1791
01:04:34.522 --> 01:04:34.827
WALT:
You don't give your
mother the credit she

1792
01:04:34.958 --> 01:04:36.829
deserves, Nicholas.

1793
01:04:36.960 --> 01:04:39.614
From what I understand,
she's not one to cross.

1794
01:04:39.745 --> 01:04:41.486
NICHOLAS:
Walt...

1795
01:04:41.616 --> 01:04:43.880
WALT:
Oh, I know who
you are, your Highness.

1796
01:04:44.010 --> 01:04:46.273
NICHOLAS:
What?

1797
01:04:46.404 --> 01:04:47.709
How?

1798
01:04:47.840 --> 01:04:49.581
WALT:
I had my suspicious
from the first time

1799
01:04:49.711 --> 01:04:51.539
you arrived here.

1800
01:04:51.670 --> 01:04:54.586
When Cassie told me about the
letters, that confirmed it.

1801
01:04:54.716 --> 01:04:56.196
NICHOLAS:
You know
about the letters?

1802
01:04:56.327 --> 01:04:58.068
WALT:
Of course I know
about the letters.

1803
01:04:58.198 --> 01:05:00.461
My wife sent them to
her friend from school.

1804
01:05:00.592 --> 01:05:02.159
Your mother.

1805
01:05:02.289 --> 01:05:06.337
Eleanore spent a lot of
her student days abroad.

1806
01:05:06.467 --> 01:05:09.601
NICHOLAS:
Why have I
never heard about this?

1807
01:05:09.731 --> 01:05:11.951
WALT:
They were quite
close for a while.

1808
01:05:12.082 --> 01:05:17.391
But your mother's commitment
to state and country soon

1809
01:05:17.522 --> 01:05:19.959
became all-encompassing.

1810
01:05:20.090 --> 01:05:22.875
Eventually, the
letters home stopped.

1811
01:05:23.006 --> 01:05:25.138
NICHOLAS:
I'm sorry.

1812
01:05:25.269 --> 01:05:27.227
WALT:
I just mentioned to
Cassie the other day that

1813
01:05:27.358 --> 01:05:30.839
life has a way of
marching forward.

1814
01:05:30.970 --> 01:05:32.363
[chuckles]

1815
01:05:32.493 --> 01:05:37.977
Why didn't you tell
us who you were?

1816
01:05:38.891 --> 01:05:41.415
NICHOLAS:
Everything in my
life is dictated by the title

1817
01:05:41.546 --> 01:05:43.504
in front of my name.

1818
01:05:43.635 --> 01:05:47.465
I wanted to do something once
that was not about me,

1819
01:05:47.595 --> 01:05:51.599
not Nicholas, Crown Prince and
Royal Regent of Verovia.

1820
01:05:51.730 --> 01:05:53.688
WALT:
But that's who
you are, Nicholas.

1821
01:05:53.819 --> 01:05:55.473
CASSIE:
Oh, there she is.

1822
01:05:55.603 --> 01:05:57.257
Hey, where is everyone?

1823
01:05:57.388 --> 01:05:59.129
MELINDA:
Oh, they
just went outside.

1824
01:05:59.259 --> 01:06:01.087
CASSIE:
Oh.

1825
01:06:03.307 --> 01:06:05.570
WALT:
When Mary disappeared
from Eleanor's life,

1826
01:06:05.700 --> 01:06:08.225
she was hurt.

1827
01:06:08.355 --> 01:06:11.924
The bond I see building
between you and Cassie is

1828
01:06:12.055 --> 01:06:14.666
more than friendship.

1829
01:06:14.796 --> 01:06:19.062
And I don't want you to hurt
her when you eventually

1830
01:06:19.192 --> 01:06:22.543
do the things that
you have to do.

1831
01:06:22.674 --> 01:06:23.588
NICHOLAS:
Do you
think me that shallow?

1832
01:06:23.718 --> 01:06:25.416
WALT:
Not at all.

1833
01:06:25.546 --> 01:06:29.550
But I also know that there's
things put upon you by

1834
01:06:29.681 --> 01:06:32.901
other people that are
beyond yourself.

1835
01:06:33.032 --> 01:06:36.166
NICHOLAS:
Yes, there are.

1836
01:06:36.296 --> 01:06:38.211
And perhaps it is the demands
of those people that should

1837
01:06:38.342 --> 01:06:40.518
be taken into consideration.

1838
01:06:40.648 --> 01:06:43.173
It sounds like my mother
sacrificed the solace of

1839
01:06:43.303 --> 01:06:45.349
perhaps the only real
friendship that she ever had

1840
01:06:45.479 --> 01:06:47.829
so that she could ensure
the solace of many.

1841
01:06:47.960 --> 01:06:52.399
Now I am sorry that
Cassie's mother was hurt.

1842
01:06:52.530 --> 01:06:55.576
But the responsibilities of
the crown are more than

1843
01:06:55.707 --> 01:06:57.839
mere feelings.

1844
01:06:57.970 --> 01:07:00.755
The details of my life
and my position are very

1845
01:07:00.886 --> 01:07:03.019
complicated.

1846
01:07:03.149 --> 01:07:07.327
I'm sorry that I wasn't
forthcoming with you

1847
01:07:07.458 --> 01:07:09.590
or your daughter, but...

1848
01:07:09.721 --> 01:07:14.117
Everything I do must be
given careful consideration.

1849
01:07:14.247 --> 01:07:16.423
I am a prince.

1850
01:07:16.554 --> 01:07:20.210
CASSIE:
You hid this from us?

1851
01:07:20.340 --> 01:07:22.690
NICHOLAS:
I didn't know how
to tell you who I really was.

1852
01:07:22.821 --> 01:07:24.344
CASSIE:
So you lied.

1853
01:07:24.475 --> 01:07:25.824
NICHOLAS:
Cassie.

1854
01:07:25.954 --> 01:07:27.739
CASSIE:
You knew what the
Winter Festival meant to me.

1855
01:07:27.869 --> 01:07:29.828
You knew what the letters
meant to me, you knew about

1856
01:07:29.958 --> 01:07:31.351
my job in New York.

1857
01:07:31.482 --> 01:07:34.485
You just watched me struggle.

1858
01:07:34.615 --> 01:07:36.313
No, you used me.

1859
01:07:36.443 --> 01:07:37.662
You used all of us.

1860
01:07:37.792 --> 01:07:39.185
For what?

1861
01:07:39.316 --> 01:07:41.187
Some weird experiment on what
it's like to be

1862
01:07:41.318 --> 01:07:43.189
some kind of commoner?

1863
01:07:43.320 --> 01:07:45.452
You are not the person
I thought you were.

1864
01:07:45.583 --> 01:07:46.975
NICHOLAS:
Cassie, wait.

Cassie!

1870
01:07:54.157 --> 01:07:55.375
Wait!

1871
01:07:55.506 --> 01:07:57.116
CASSIE:
Okay, look, your
Highness, I am not one of

1872
01:07:57.247 --> 01:08:00.206
your subjects that you
can just boss around!

1873
01:08:00.337 --> 01:08:03.470
Tradition has always
been so important to me.

1874
01:08:03.601 --> 01:08:05.429
Look at you.

1875
01:08:05.559 --> 01:08:07.431
You've got a family where
tradition is something that

1876
01:08:07.561 --> 01:08:09.911
most people could
only dream of.

1877
01:08:10.042 --> 01:08:13.176
You're just throwing it away.

1878
01:08:13.306 --> 01:08:15.134
NICHOLAS:
That's not fair.

1879
01:08:15.265 --> 01:08:17.267
CASSIE:
All I've been trying
to do is preserve the

1880
01:08:17.397 --> 01:08:20.400
history of my family,
and of this entire town.

1881
01:08:20.531 --> 01:08:23.186

no longer a part of.

Dear.

We have so much left to do
and I don't even know

if we're gonna
get it all done.

Why didn't you tell me
about that job in New York?

1898
01:09:19.024 --> 01:09:21.113
It's something you should
celebrate, not keep secret.

It doesn't matter,
Dad, because I'm not

I don't know.

01:09:27.728 --> 01:09:31.123
I just thought that if I did
then that means that entire

chapter of my life
and mom is gone.

1905
01:09:35.606 --> 01:09:39.044
You know how sometimes you
just need to leave to realize

that everything you could
have possibly wanted is right

ends, it doesn't mean

1909
01:09:46.878 --> 01:09:48.706
it has to leave your heart.

1910
01:09:48.836 --> 01:09:50.795
In fact, what you've done
here, what you and Nicholas

1911
01:09:50.925 --> 01:09:53.145
did, you've proved that you
can take a memory and

1912
01:09:53.276 --> 01:09:55.974
turn it into something
new and beautiful.

1913
01:09:56.104 --> 01:09:59.151
CASSIE:
Yeah, right.

1914
01:09:59.282 --> 01:10:00.544
WALT:
Have you tried
talking to him?

1915
01:10:00.674 --> 01:10:03.373
CASSIE:
He didn't do it
for the right reasons, dad.

1916
01:10:03.503 --> 01:10:09.335
WALT:
Maybe Nicholas
wasn't forthcoming.

1917
01:10:09.466 --> 01:10:10.945
But think of all the
reasons why he was here?

1918
01:10:11.076 --> 01:10:14.035
He spent time here.

1919
01:10:14.166 --> 01:10:16.647
He was excited to help you
get all this going when

1920
01:10:16.777 --> 01:10:18.518
no one else would step up.

1921
01:10:18.649 --> 01:10:20.694
That was real.

1922
01:10:20.825 --> 01:10:22.522
CASSIE:
Yeah well.

1923
01:10:22.653 --> 01:10:24.698
Gone now.

1924
01:10:24.829 --> 01:10:28.528
WALT:
Oh, honey.

1925

Your Majesty,
presenting his Royal Highness,

1928
01:10:45.153 --> 01:10:47.112
Prince Nicholas.

01:10:48.331 --> 01:10:49.854
You're finally home.

1932
01:10:59.429 --> 01:11:00.560
CASSIE:
Good morning!

1933
01:11:00.691 --> 01:11:02.606
WALT:
Hey!

1934
01:11:02.736 --> 01:11:04.825
I just talked to Melinda, and
the last of the booths

1935
01:11:04.956 --> 01:11:08.002
are getting set up in
the library area.

1936
01:11:08.133 --> 01:11:10.004
Would you like some coffee?

1937
01:11:10.135 --> 01:11:11.005
CASSIE:
Yes, thank you.

1938
01:11:11.136 --> 01:11:12.833
I'm so tired.

1939
01:11:12.964 --> 01:11:15.009
WALT:
Well, I bet
you are, honey.

1940
01:11:15.140 --> 01:11:17.185
You've been up for
two days straight.

1941
01:11:17.316 --> 01:11:19.187
[chuckles]

1942
01:11:19.318 --> 01:11:20.058
But!

1943
01:11:20.188 --> 01:11:21.146
Look what you have done.

1944
01:11:21.277 --> 01:11:22.452
CASSIE:
Oh.

1945
01:11:22.582 --> 01:11:24.410
Big shoes to fill.

1946
01:11:26.325 --> 01:11:28.980
Mmm.

1947
01:11:29.110 --> 01:11:32.940
WALT:
Every new tradition
starts with a good breakfast.

1948
01:11:33.071 --> 01:11:34.768
CASSIE:
I'm pretty sure
you just made that up.

1949
01:11:34.899 --> 01:11:36.292
WALT:
I did.

1950
01:11:36.422 --> 01:11:37.293
CASSIE:
Okay.

1951
01:11:37.423 --> 01:11:38.076
[giggles]

1952
01:11:38.206 --> 01:11:39.469
WALT:
You grab a seat.

1953
01:11:39.599 --> 01:11:42.472
I'm going to dish you up
some of Walt's Special here.

1954
01:11:42.602 --> 01:11:43.647
CASSIE:
Yes!

1955
01:11:43.777 --> 01:11:45.475
WALT:
Famous scrambled eggs.

1956
01:11:45.605 --> 01:11:46.432
CASSIE:
Okay.

1957
01:11:46.563 --> 01:11:48.260
[giggles]

1958
01:11:48.913 --> 01:11:50.044
MARY:
Nicholas.

1959
01:11:50.175 --> 01:11:51.263
I've picked a couple of
options for the ceremony

1960
01:11:51.394 --> 01:11:52.830
tomorrow.

1961
01:11:52.960 --> 01:11:56.573
I just, I can't decide,
because they're so different.

1962
01:11:56.703 --> 01:11:59.097
NICHOLAS:
Whatever you
think is best, mother.

1963
01:11:59.227 --> 01:12:01.012
MARY:
That'll be
all, Reginald.

1964
01:12:04.232 --> 01:12:05.756
Tell me.

1965
01:12:05.886 --> 01:12:09.890
Are you still thinking about
that town and those people?

1966
01:12:10.021 --> 01:12:11.501
NICHOLAS:
How could I not?

1967
01:12:11.631 --> 01:12:12.893
MARY:
I know you think I
don't understand why you went

1968
01:12:13.024 --> 01:12:15.809
on your escapade but I do.

1969
01:12:15.940 --> 01:12:17.158
Maybe even too well.

1970
01:12:17.681 --> 01:12:18.986
Sit.

1971
01:12:21.380 --> 01:12:22.163
NICHOLAS:
[sighs]

1972
01:12:22.294 --> 01:12:23.600
MARY:
You see.

1973
01:12:23.730 --> 01:12:25.950
When I was young, my
friends would come back from

1974
01:12:26.080 --> 01:12:27.517
Christmas Break and they
would tell me all these

1975
01:12:27.647 --> 01:12:32.435
marvelous stories
of family and food.

1976
01:12:32.565 --> 01:12:33.349
Fun.

1977
01:12:33.479 --> 01:12:34.654
And don't get me wrong.

1978
01:12:34.785 --> 01:12:35.829
It's not that your
grandfather didn't provide

1979
01:12:35.960 --> 01:12:37.788
all those things.

1980
01:12:37.918 --> 01:12:40.312
But it was understood, as
with everything we did,

1981
01:12:40.443 --> 01:12:43.620
that ceremony came first.

1982
01:12:43.750 --> 01:12:46.187
NICHOLAS:
Family
trait, I see.

1983
01:12:46.318 --> 01:12:48.015
MARY:
There was a part of me
that wanted to have one of

1984
01:12:48.146 --> 01:12:50.148
those Christmases.

1985
01:12:50.278 --> 01:12:53.804
Where I got to wear cosy
pajamas and eat too much.

1986
01:12:53.934 --> 01:12:59.244
Not have to worry about
galas and presentation.

1987
01:12:59.375 --> 01:13:01.855
I think that's why Eleanore
sent me all those letters.

1988
01:13:01.986 --> 01:13:06.164
It's like she knew deep down
that I needed those stories.

1989
01:13:06.294 --> 01:13:07.295
NICHOLAS:
So why didn't
you make that happen

1990
01:13:07.426 --> 01:13:08.688
for yourself?

1991
01:13:08.819 --> 01:13:10.516
MARY:
Mmm.

1992
01:13:10.647 --> 01:13:13.650
Traditions are very
hard to break, Nicholas.

1993
01:13:13.780 --> 01:13:16.870
And they also make
us who we are.

1994
01:13:17.001 --> 01:13:17.871
NICHOLAS:
But do you ever
regret not keeping in touch

1995
01:13:18.002 --> 01:13:19.003
with Cassie's mother?

1996
01:13:19.133 --> 01:13:20.439
MARY:
Oh.

1997
01:13:20.570 --> 01:13:23.094
Of course I do.

1998
01:13:23.529 --> 01:13:25.096
She was a very good friend.

1999
01:13:26.706 --> 01:13:30.841
Outside of your father, she
was the only one who saw me

2000
01:13:30.971 --> 01:13:34.410
for me instead of a
princess or a queen.

2001
01:13:36.847 --> 01:13:39.023
Very dear friend indeed.

2002
01:13:39.153 --> 01:13:40.938
But that was a
very long time ago.

2003
01:13:41.068 --> 01:13:43.027
We came from
different worlds.

2004
01:13:43.157 --> 01:13:47.074
And I understood and
respected what Eleanore did

2005
01:13:47.205 --> 01:13:49.337
for her family and her
friends and her town.

2006
01:13:49.468 --> 01:13:52.732
And she understood what
I needed to do for mine.

2007
01:13:54.212 --> 01:13:55.909
NICHOLAS:
But...

2008
01:13:56.780 --> 01:13:58.434
It's sad though,
don't you think?

2009
01:13:58.564 --> 01:14:03.482
Letting protocol and rules
dictate how things have to be?

2010
01:14:03.613 --> 01:14:04.352
MARY:
No, no darling.

2011
01:14:04.483 --> 01:14:05.832
You mustn't think
of it that way.

2012
01:14:05.963 --> 01:14:08.008
We still have
our celebrations.

2013
01:14:08.139 --> 01:14:10.620
I mean this is a
very joyous time.

2014
01:14:10.750 --> 01:14:11.795
It's just that they have
their Christmas,

2015
01:14:11.925 --> 01:14:15.276
and we have ours.

2016
01:14:16.669 --> 01:14:17.627
NICHOLAS:
Well, that's
where you're wrong, mother.

2017
01:14:17.757 --> 01:14:19.846
MARY:
Now so?

2018
01:14:19.977 --> 01:14:21.065
NICHOLAS:
Because if I've
learned anything from that

2019
01:14:21.195 --> 01:14:23.459
town and those people it's
that Christmas starts

2020
01:14:23.589 --> 01:14:24.590
with us.

2021
01:14:26.200 --> 01:14:28.768
And I think it's time we
both put that into effect.

No, it's happening
because of everyone.

2052
01:15:41.841 --> 01:15:43.669
I mean I had the initial
idea, but it's because

2053
01:15:43.800 --> 01:15:46.019
everybody's
chipping in, right?

2054
01:15:47.194 --> 01:15:48.065
Can I ask you a question?

Shoot.

01:15:51.155 --> 01:15:52.330
all this?

Oh, sweetie, Mom
would have been proud.

01:15:55.028 --> 01:15:58.423
You bet she'd
have been proud.

01:16:08.912 --> 01:16:09.608
It's been our best seller.

Ooh.

MELINDA:
Oh, it's Christmas.

2072
01:16:12.959 --> 01:16:14.091
Let's live a little.

2073
01:16:14.221 --> 01:16:16.659
I think it's far enough
away from the books.

2074
01:16:17.355 --> 01:16:18.617
CASSIE:
[chuckles]

2075
01:16:18.748 --> 01:16:20.010
How's it going?

MELINDA:
Oh, too
soon to tell.

2077
01:16:22.142 --> 01:16:24.928
But even if it's not enough
to save the library,

2078
01:16:25.058 --> 01:16:26.886
it is worth it.

2079
01:16:27.017 --> 01:16:29.236
CASSIE:
It has to.

2080
01:16:30.673 --> 01:16:33.980
MELINDA:
You tried,
and did this for us.

2081
01:16:34.111 --> 01:16:37.984
That in itself is a
Christmas miracle.

2082
01:16:38.115 --> 01:16:40.465
And the whole town
will never forget it.

2083
01:16:41.509 --> 01:16:43.294
CASSIE:
Thank you.

2084
01:16:43.424 --> 01:16:44.600
Thank you.

2085
01:16:44.730 --> 01:16:45.601
MELINDA:
Mmhmm.

2086
01:16:46.558 --> 01:16:47.298
CASSIE:
Okay.

2087
01:16:47.428 --> 01:16:49.126
WALT:
That's sweet, Melinda.

2088
01:16:49.256 --> 01:16:50.257
We'll talk to
you later, okay?

2089
01:16:50.388 --> 01:16:51.258
MELINDA:
Okay.

2090
01:16:51.389 --> 01:16:52.129

Okay, bye-bye.

01:16:53.609 --> 01:16:55.393

Oh, this is great.

[♪♪♪]

2094
01:17:11.583 --> 01:17:14.412
MARY:
I hate to interrupt,
but I do believe that letter

2095
01:17:14.542 --> 01:17:17.154
belongs to me.

2096
01:17:17.284 --> 01:17:18.329
CASSIE:
Who are you?

2097
01:17:18.459 --> 01:17:21.767
NICHOLAS:
This is Queen Mary.

2098
01:17:21.898 --> 01:17:24.857
Sovereign Ruler and
Royal Regent of Verovia.

2099
01:17:24.988 --> 01:17:26.424
My mother.

2100
01:17:26.554 --> 01:17:29.601
[♪♪♪]

2101
01:17:29.732 --> 01:17:30.863
CASSIE:
I'm sorry.

2102
01:17:30.994 --> 01:17:32.038
NICHOLAS:
I'm sorry too.

2103
01:17:32.169 --> 01:17:32.996
MARY:
Alright.

2104
01:17:33.126 --> 01:17:33.823
CASSIE:
Sorry.

2105
01:17:33.953 --> 01:17:36.042
[clears throat]

2106
01:17:36.173 --> 01:17:37.261
Do I curtsy?

2107
01:17:37.391 --> 01:17:38.654
NICHOLAS:
No no no.

2108
01:17:38.784 --> 01:17:40.656
CASSIE:
Okay well I've
never met a queen before.

2109
01:17:42.614 --> 01:17:43.920
Okay.

2110
01:17:44.050 --> 01:17:45.748
Are one of you going to
tell me what is going on?

2111
01:17:45.878 --> 01:17:47.488
NICHOLAS:
Walk with me?

2112
01:17:47.619 --> 01:17:48.664
CASSIE:
Um...

2113
01:17:49.490 --> 01:17:50.230
MARY:
Yes, thank you.

2114
01:17:50.361 --> 01:17:56.193
[♪♪♪]

2115
01:17:56.323 --> 01:17:58.630
NICHOLAS:
The way
we left things.

2116
01:17:58.761 --> 01:18:00.066
I simply couldn't bare it
if that's how things ended

2117
01:18:00.197 --> 01:18:00.893
between us.

2118
01:18:01.024 --> 01:18:02.155
CASSIE:
No, Nicholas.

2119
01:18:02.286 --> 01:18:04.157
The way I spoke to you was
completely out of line.

2120
01:18:04.288 --> 01:18:05.289
NICHOLAS:
I was out of line
for not being completely

2121
01:18:05.419 --> 01:18:07.030
honest with you.

2122
01:18:07.160 --> 01:18:08.466
CASSIE:
Well no.

2123
01:18:08.596 --> 01:18:10.163
You were a stranger and you
worked day and night to give

2124
01:18:10.294 --> 01:18:11.948
us a truly magical Christmas.

2125
01:18:12.078 --> 01:18:15.647
NICHOLAS:
Once I met you,
I realized what was

2126
01:18:15.778 --> 01:18:17.127
truly important.

2127
01:18:17.257 --> 01:18:18.389
CASSIE:
That's what Christmas is.

2128
01:18:18.519 --> 01:18:21.218
It's not about doing
what's always been done.

2129
01:18:21.348 --> 01:18:23.176
It's about people
coming together.

2130
01:18:23.307 --> 01:18:24.830
NICHOLAS:
Yes.

2131
01:18:24.961 --> 01:18:26.919
Yes, and being here with you,
with all of you, I've seen

2132
01:18:27.050 --> 01:18:29.922
the Christmas I've
always dreamed of.

2133
01:18:30.053 --> 01:18:31.968
CASSIE:
Thank you,
for coming back.

2134
01:18:32.098 --> 01:18:33.970
NICHOLAS:
I had to.

2135
01:18:34.100 --> 01:18:36.799
I had to be here with
you for Christmas.

2136
01:18:36.929 --> 01:18:39.105
Even if it was just this
once before I became king

2137
01:18:39.236 --> 01:18:43.544
and before you go back to
your life in New York.

2138
01:18:43.675 --> 01:18:45.721
CASSIE:
I'm not going
back to New York.

2139
01:18:45.851 --> 01:18:46.417
NICHOLAS:
You're not?

2140
01:18:46.547 --> 01:18:47.940
CASSIE:
No.

2141
01:18:48.071 --> 01:18:50.073
I'm going to stay here and
I'm going to build my mom's

2142
01:18:50.203 --> 01:18:52.466
legacy, and I'm gonna work on
traditions in the community

2143
01:18:52.597 --> 01:18:53.772
that I love.

2144
01:18:53.903 --> 01:18:55.252
NICHOLAS:
Cassie, that's...

2145
01:18:55.382 --> 01:18:56.514
CASSIE:
No, it's great,
because think about it.

2146
01:18:56.644 --> 01:18:59.604
The Festival's not
gonna run itself.

2147
01:18:59.735 --> 01:19:01.214
What about your coronation?

2148
01:19:01.867 --> 01:19:03.129
And your crown?

2149
01:19:03.260 --> 01:19:05.566
MARY:
That's where I come in.

2150
01:19:05.697 --> 01:19:09.135
You see, upon his return to
Verovia, my son reminded me

2151
01:19:09.266 --> 01:19:12.225
that sometimes we get so set
in our ways that we forget

2152
01:19:12.356 --> 01:19:14.662
what is truly important.

2153
01:19:14.793 --> 01:19:17.056
And then it made me think of
a very dear friend of mine

2154
01:19:17.187 --> 01:19:20.103
who once told me that
Christmas wasn't so much

2155
01:19:20.233 --> 01:19:23.367
about a place, but a feeling,
and those you share that

2156
01:19:23.497 --> 01:19:25.195
feeling with.

2157
01:19:25.325 --> 01:19:29.808
So as Ruler of Verovia, I am
exercising my powers and I'm

2158
01:19:29.939 --> 01:19:32.071
going to have the coronation
right here in this town

2159
01:19:32.202 --> 01:19:34.030
with all of you.

2160
01:19:34.160 --> 01:19:35.509
CASSIE:
You can do that?

2161
01:19:35.640 --> 01:19:38.295
MARY:
Yes I can.

2162
01:19:38.425 --> 01:19:39.600
Now.

2163
01:19:39.731 --> 01:19:41.907
Prince Nicholas,
kneel before me.

2164
01:19:42.038 --> 01:19:44.997
[♪♪♪]

2165
01:19:45.128 --> 01:19:47.695
NICHOLAS:
Wait, mother.

2166
01:19:47.826 --> 01:19:51.047
I came here to find
a special Christmas.

2167
01:19:51.177 --> 01:19:55.878
But what I found
was a special place.

2168
01:19:56.008 --> 01:19:58.924
And a special woman.

2169
01:19:59.055 --> 01:20:02.754
I grew up with a kingdom.

2170
01:20:02.885 --> 01:20:05.539
But it took coming here to
know what it was like to

2171
01:20:05.670 --> 01:20:07.019
build one.

2172
01:20:07.150 --> 01:20:08.891
This town.

2173
01:20:09.021 --> 01:20:11.110
This woman.

2174
01:20:11.241 --> 01:20:13.591
They have my heart.

2175
01:20:13.721 --> 01:20:15.549
And I know I have much to do
at home, but I have so much

2176
01:20:15.680 --> 01:20:17.464
to do here as well.

2177
01:20:17.595 --> 01:20:19.249
MARY:
Nicholas.

2178
01:20:19.379 --> 01:20:21.033
What are you saying?

2179
01:20:21.164 --> 01:20:25.124
NICHOLAS:
I would like...

2180
01:20:25.255 --> 01:20:28.345
I would like to stay.

2181
01:20:28.475 --> 01:20:31.130
If you'll have me.

2182
01:20:31.261 --> 01:20:33.785
CASSIE:
Of course.

2183
01:20:33.916 --> 01:20:35.787
Yeah.

2184
01:20:35.918 --> 01:20:38.094
MARY:
As your mother,
I understand.

2185
01:20:38.224 --> 01:20:40.096
I really do.

2186
01:20:40.226 --> 01:20:44.317
But as your Queen, I must
remind you of your duties and

2187
01:20:44.448 --> 01:20:47.712
commitment not just to the
Crown but to your people.

2188
01:20:47.843 --> 01:20:49.235
NICHOLAS:
But how can I
fulfill a commitment to an

2189
01:20:49.366 --> 01:20:51.063
entire nation if I can't
even fulfill a commitment

2190
01:20:51.194 --> 01:20:53.022
to myself?

2191
01:20:53.152 --> 01:20:55.676
MARY:
I see.

2192
01:20:55.807 --> 01:21:00.159
The Royal Law dictates that a
coronation must take place

2193
01:21:00.290 --> 01:21:02.901
in order to maintain
the monarchy.

2194
01:21:03.032 --> 01:21:04.381
NICHOLAS:
But, Mother...

2195
01:21:04.511 --> 01:21:06.209
MARY:
But there is nothing
that says you must begin your

2196
01:21:06.339 --> 01:21:09.865
reign immediately.

2197
01:21:09.995 --> 01:21:13.520
NICHOLAS:
I don't understand.

2198
01:21:13.651 --> 01:21:17.002
MARY:
Plenty of monarchs
have left the kingdoms in the

2199
01:21:17.133 --> 01:21:20.005
capable hands of others while
tending to matters abroad.

2200
01:21:20.136 --> 01:21:23.008
REGINALD:
I believe the
perfect candidate is standing

2201
01:21:23.139 --> 01:21:24.575
right before you, sir.

2202
01:21:26.794 --> 01:21:28.448
NICHOLAS:
Mother, you
would do that for me?

2203
01:21:28.579 --> 01:21:29.797
MARY:
[chuckles]

2204
01:21:29.928 --> 01:21:31.321
Oh, my son.

2205
01:21:31.887 --> 01:21:33.714
Kneel before me.

2206
01:21:36.761 --> 01:21:37.718
NICHOLAS:
[clears throat]

2207
01:21:41.722 --> 01:21:44.334
MARY:
On this day, when
celebration rings out across

2208
01:21:44.464 --> 01:21:48.729
all the lands, and the end
of the year makes way for the

2209
01:21:48.860 --> 01:21:53.909
dawn of another, I declare by
the powers invested in me by

2210
01:21:54.039 --> 01:21:59.436
Crown and State, that
you rise into a new era.

2211
01:22:01.612 --> 01:22:04.571
King of Verovia.

2212
01:22:05.833 --> 01:22:10.403
[♪♪♪]

2213
01:22:10.534 --> 01:22:14.973
NICHOLAS:
And my first order
of business, reinstating you

2214
01:22:15.104 --> 01:22:16.540
to the thrown in my stead.

2215
01:22:16.670 --> 01:22:18.237
MARY:
[laughing]

2216
01:22:19.021 --> 01:22:21.980
Already making such wise
decisions, King Nicholas.

2217
01:22:23.068 --> 01:22:25.288
Oh, but you are going to need
a Head of Affairs here to

2218
01:22:25.418 --> 01:22:27.551
advise and keep you abreast
of all important matters,

2219
01:22:27.681 --> 01:22:28.378
so I...

2220
01:22:28.508 --> 01:22:30.641
NICHOLAS:
If I may.

2221
01:22:30.771 --> 01:22:33.905
My Head of Affairs must be
someone who has given their

2222
01:22:34.036 --> 01:22:37.474
very heart to Verovia and
its crown, and someone who

2223
01:22:37.604 --> 01:22:41.043
travelled across the
world to save it.

2224
01:22:41.173 --> 01:22:46.396
Someone who has done his due
diligence for Her Majesty.

2225
01:22:47.049 --> 01:22:48.137
Someone who has
become a great friend.

2226
01:22:49.703 --> 01:22:50.966
Arthur.

2227
01:22:51.096 --> 01:22:52.880
ARTHUR:
Me?

2228
01:22:53.011 --> 01:22:56.797
MARY:
A bold... and
noble choice.

2229
01:22:56.928 --> 01:22:58.799
NICHOLAS:
What do
you say, Arthur?

2230
01:22:58.930 --> 01:23:02.238
Stay abroad with me and plan
another festival or two?

2231
01:23:02.803 --> 01:23:05.415
ARTHUR:
I... Thank you.

2232
01:23:06.546 --> 01:23:10.028
MELINDA:
I can't believe it,
oh I simply can't believe it!

2233
01:23:10.159 --> 01:23:11.290
Oh!

2234
01:23:11.421 --> 01:23:12.813
Oh, uh, your Majesty.

2235
01:23:12.944 --> 01:23:14.032
CASSIE:
Melinda.

2236
01:23:14.163 --> 01:23:16.817
MELINDA:
There are so many
people here,

2237
01:23:16.948 --> 01:23:19.385
they're coming in droves.

2238
01:23:19.516 --> 01:23:24.651
No, we have to finish the
final tally, but if the sales

2239
01:23:24.782 --> 01:23:27.741
keep going the way they are,
we should have more than

2240
01:23:27.872 --> 01:23:30.788
enough to save the library!

2241
01:23:30.918 --> 01:23:33.399
MARY:
Oh, well that's
absolutely wonderful.

2242
01:23:33.530 --> 01:23:35.793
I'm happy for all
of you, truly.

2243
01:23:35.923 --> 01:23:37.882
MELINDA:
Oh, yes, thank you.

2244
01:23:38.013 --> 01:23:38.926
Bye!

2246
01:23:42.582 --> 01:23:43.801
MARY:
Oh.

2247
01:23:43.931 --> 01:23:44.976
CASSIE:
I don't even
know what is happening.

2248
01:23:45.107 --> 01:23:45.368
MARY:
You know, I would love
to tell you all

2249
01:23:45.498 --> 01:23:46.717
about your mother.

2250
01:23:46.847 --> 01:23:48.110
When she and I were young
and, oh, full of adventure.

2251
01:23:48.240 --> 01:23:50.025
Just like you.

2252
01:23:50.155 --> 01:23:51.765
CASSIE:
I would love that.

2253
01:23:51.896 --> 01:23:54.507
I just wish she
was hear to see it.

2254
01:23:54.638 --> 01:23:55.856
WALT:
Cassie, dear, you bring
out the best in everybody

2255
01:23:55.987 --> 01:23:57.336
and everything.

2256
01:23:57.467 --> 01:23:59.034
Just like your mother.

2257
01:23:59.164 --> 01:24:00.557
MARY:
Well, you must be Walt.

2258
01:24:00.687 --> 01:24:03.821
WALT:
Elsie told me
so much about you.

2259
01:24:03.951 --> 01:24:06.606
It always felt
like a fairy tale.

2260
01:24:06.737 --> 01:24:10.436
MARY:
Well, clearly she found
her own fairy tale here with

2261
01:24:10.567 --> 01:24:13.439
you, and this charming town.

2262
01:24:13.570 --> 01:24:16.573
WALT:
Let me show you some
of Ellie that you

2263
01:24:16.703 --> 01:24:18.096
don't know about.

2264
01:24:18.227 --> 01:24:19.663
Some of her life that she
created here, and the world

2265
01:24:19.793 --> 01:24:21.926
that we built.

2266
01:24:22.057 --> 01:24:24.233
If you would do
me the honour?

2267
01:24:24.363 --> 01:24:26.844
MARY:
Oh, yes, I will.

2268
01:24:26.974 --> 01:24:29.238
[♪♪♪]

2269
01:24:29.368 --> 01:24:32.937
WALT:
Do you like popcorn?

2270
01:24:33.068 --> 01:24:33.894
MARY:
I've not tried it.

2271
01:24:34.025 --> 01:24:35.113
WALT:
Well.

2272
01:24:35.244 --> 01:24:35.853
[chuckles]

2273
01:24:35.983 --> 01:24:37.855
You're in for a treat.

2274
01:24:37.985 --> 01:24:41.337

[footsteps]

2276
01:24:46.255 --> 01:24:48.387
CASSIE:
I can't believe
that you're here.

2277
01:24:48.518 --> 01:24:50.868
Well, it just feels like a
fairy tale I used to read

2278
01:24:50.998 --> 01:24:54.698
about in my books, and I just
never thought that

2279
01:24:54.828 --> 01:24:56.221
it would come true.

2280
01:24:56.352 --> 01:24:59.398
Just...

2281
01:24:59.529 --> 01:25:02.749
You can't stay away
from Verovia forever.

2282
01:25:02.880 --> 01:25:07.014
NICHOLAS:
Well, we can stay
away as long as we like.

2283
01:25:07.145 --> 01:25:08.668
You heard my mother.

2284
01:25:08.799 --> 01:25:10.279
She's had some
practice at this.

2285
01:25:10.409 --> 01:25:13.412
Verovia is in
very good hands.

2286
01:25:13.543 --> 01:25:14.718
Besides.

2287
01:25:14.848 --> 01:25:16.720
You and I have future
festivals to plan.

2288
01:25:16.850 --> 01:25:18.548
CASSIE:
Really?

2289
01:25:18.678 --> 01:25:19.462
For someone who
overthinks things,

2290
01:25:19.592 --> 01:25:21.507
that a lot of planning.

2291
01:25:21.638 --> 01:25:22.595
NICHOLAS:
Well, we'll need
someone who leads with their

2292
01:25:22.726 --> 01:25:26.469
heart and not their mind
to be my future Queen.

2293
01:25:26.599 --> 01:25:28.035
CASSIE:
Queen?
