00:08:59.708 --> 00:09:01.375
May I borrow my tenants for a moment?

180
00:09:01.458 --> 00:09:03.166
Oh, sure. Yeah.

181
00:09:03.250 --> 00:09:05.291
- We'll be right back, honey.
- Okay, Mom.

182
00:09:08.291 --> 00:09:09.333
[sighs]

183
00:09:23.708 --> 00:09:24.750
Hmm.

184
00:09:46.291 --> 00:09:48.541
- Whoa! Oh! Hold on. Let me…
- [gasps]

185
00:09:48.625 --> 00:09:49.833
Whoa! Whoa!

186
00:09:49.916 --> 00:09:51.708
- Hold on. I got it.
- [Dad] Everything okay?

187
00:09:51.791 --> 00:09:53.375
Uh, I think you need a plumber.

188
00:09:53.458 --> 00:09:55.583
Oh, you know, it-- it does that.

189
00:09:55.666 --> 00:09:57.708
The one in the kitchen,
that's the real problem.

190
00:09:57.791 --> 00:09:59.750
- There's one in the kitchen?
- And the men's room.

191
00:10:00.250 --> 00:10:01.125
Okay.

192
00:10:04.458 --> 00:10:05.583
What are you waiting for?

193
00:10:06.208 --> 00:10:09.625
Uh, we've been
prioritizing our funds a bit.

194
00:10:09.708 --> 00:10:13.333
[chuckles] Look, the thing is,
Denise keeps raising the rent,

195
00:10:13.416 --> 00:10:15.791
so there's never
any extra money to fix the place up.

196
00:10:16.416 --> 00:10:19.083
So the acts aren't
bringing them in like they used to?

197
00:10:19.166 --> 00:10:21.625
- What acts?
- [chuckles] Oh.

198
00:10:21.708 --> 00:10:24.333
What he means to say is
times have changed.

199
00:10:24.416 --> 00:10:27.583
Most bands prefer the…
the bigger clubs these days.

200
00:10:27.666 --> 00:10:29.458
But there is a very nice young man

201
00:10:29.541 --> 00:10:32.875
who stops by to help us
with the repairs from time to time.

202
00:10:33.500 --> 00:10:35.583
[chuckles] Don't worry, huh?

203
00:10:35.666 --> 00:10:38.458
The Rhythm Room has always been
a place for people to come together,

204
00:10:38.541 --> 00:10:40.416
in good times and bad.

205
00:10:41.458 --> 00:10:45.166
I'd say that's way more important
than a leaky faucet, wouldn't you?

206
00:10:45.250 --> 00:10:46.083
I guess.

207
00:10:46.166 --> 00:10:47.250
[Dad laughs] Okay.

208
00:10:48.458 --> 00:10:49.666
Hey, everyone.

209
00:10:49.750 --> 00:10:50.583
[grunts]

210
00:10:50.666 --> 00:10:51.916
[gasps]

211
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:55.916
So that pipe's
still giving you a problem, huh?

212
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:56.833
[Dad] Mm.

213
00:10:58.041 --> 00:10:59.125
Let me guess.

214
00:10:59.208 --> 00:11:02.375
This is the nice young man
who helps with the repairs?

215
00:11:02.875 --> 00:11:04.708
Also known as Luke.

216
00:11:04.791 --> 00:11:06.958
Well, this is my youngest daughter Ashley.

217
00:11:07.041 --> 00:11:08.875
- Ashley.
- She's visiting from New York.

218
00:11:08.958 --> 00:11:11.583
Oh, New York.

219
00:11:11.666 --> 00:11:12.500
Yeah.

220
00:11:13.083 --> 00:11:14.000
That explains it.

221
00:11:14.083 --> 00:11:16.833
Okay, well, I would love
to stay and chat. I would.

222
00:11:16.916 --> 00:11:19.291
But I got a valve to find.

223
00:11:20.291 --> 00:11:22.041
Nice to meet you, city girl.

224
00:11:23.250 --> 00:11:24.791
- [Mom exclaims]
- [Ashley sighs]

225
00:11:24.875 --> 00:11:26.125
He's cute.

226
00:11:26.625 --> 00:11:27.625
He's annoying.

227
00:11:28.125 --> 00:11:29.583
He's available.

228
00:11:30.208 --> 00:11:31.208
Okay.

229
00:11:31.291 --> 00:11:33.916
Since you two children
clearly have things under control,

230
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:37.166
I think I'm gonna head
to the café and pay Marie a visit.

231
00:11:37.250 --> 00:11:39.208
Did I mention that he's handy?

232
00:11:39.291 --> 00:11:40.750
I'm not listening.

233
00:11:40.833 --> 00:11:42.958
♪ <i>Fa-la-la, la-la-la-- </i>♪ Oh!

234
00:11:43.041 --> 00:11:44.750
- Oh, be careful.
- [Mom] Oh!

235
00:11:44.833 --> 00:11:46.333
The leak. Oh.

236
00:11:55.375 --> 00:11:56.208
[Ashley] Hmm.

237
00:11:59.833 --> 00:12:02.000
Is that my baby sister I see?

238
00:12:02.625 --> 00:12:03.458
Oh!

239
00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:05.416
Aww.

240
00:12:05.500 --> 00:12:06.333
[Marie laughs]

241
00:12:06.416 --> 00:12:09.208
It feels so good to hug you
and squeeze you in person.

242
00:12:09.291 --> 00:12:12.208
I cannot believe
you bought the Little Spoon.

243
00:12:12.291 --> 00:12:15.166
Well, Beth was retiring,
and I just could not let this place

244
00:12:15.250 --> 00:12:18.166
turn into one of those coffee shops
that sell $8 lattes.

245
00:12:18.250 --> 00:12:19.291
[Ashley] Mm.

246
00:12:19.375 --> 00:12:22.291
And now I can, you know,
try out my cookie recipes,

247
00:12:22.375 --> 00:12:24.041
chat with the customers.

248
00:12:24.125 --> 00:12:25.791
Two of your favorite things, babe.

249
00:12:25.875 --> 00:12:28.083
- Rodger!
- Hey. [chuckles]

250
00:12:28.166 --> 00:12:29.250
You're working here?

251
00:12:29.333 --> 00:12:32.833
Yeah. Helping out when I can.
Lending a little celebrity cachet.

252
00:12:32.916 --> 00:12:36.500
Oh, remind me. What's the statute
of limitations on high school athletics?

253
00:12:36.583 --> 00:12:40.333
[laughs] Okay. Okay, I admit
the old tight end isn't so tight anymore.

254
00:12:40.416 --> 00:12:41.250
[chuckles]

255
00:12:41.333 --> 00:12:42.791
- Good to see you.
- You too.

256
00:12:43.916 --> 00:12:45.375
Mom told me about the Belles.

257
00:12:45.458 --> 00:12:46.291
Oh.

258
00:12:47.291 --> 00:12:48.833
- I am so sorry.
- Well…

259
00:12:48.916 --> 00:12:49.875
[Marie sighs]

260
00:12:51.250 --> 00:12:54.333
Well, my whole life just got demolished

261
00:12:54.416 --> 00:12:56.833
by a younger dancer with perkier boobs.

262
00:12:56.916 --> 00:12:59.875
Well, I, for one, am so glad you're back.

263
00:12:59.958 --> 00:13:02.166
And you're welcome to stay with us
as long as you need.

264
00:13:02.250 --> 00:13:05.000
No, no, no. Don't get too excited.
It's only temporary.

265
00:13:05.083 --> 00:13:06.750
What can I get you?

266
00:13:07.333 --> 00:13:10.333
The lady will have
a double cheeseburger with extra bacon.

267
00:13:10.416 --> 00:13:12.458
- Okay.
- Actually, the lady will have a salad.

268
00:13:12.541 --> 00:13:13.541
Okay.

269
00:13:13.625 --> 00:13:15.625
And an order
of my chocolate candy cane cookies.

270
00:13:18.166 --> 00:13:22.458
So, what's this about the Rhythm Room
having trouble booking acts?

271
00:13:22.541 --> 00:13:25.333
Look, a band can get more attention
with a 30-second TikTok

272
00:13:25.416 --> 00:13:27.000
than they can playing the Rhythm Room.

273
00:13:27.083 --> 00:13:27.916
Ugh.

274
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:30.875
It's gonna be fine.
Mom and Dad are gonna figure it out.

275
00:13:31.708 --> 00:13:32.541
Probably.

276
00:13:33.250 --> 00:13:34.125
[Ashley] Ah!

277
00:13:34.208 --> 00:13:36.833
- Okay, be honest.
- Okay.

278
00:13:36.916 --> 00:13:38.291
[door chimes]

279
00:13:38.375 --> 00:13:39.833
- [Luke] City girl!
- [gasps]

280
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:41.833
[muffled] Oh, my God.

281
00:13:43.458 --> 00:13:44.833
Uh, hey, Rog.

282
00:13:44.916 --> 00:13:47.041
- I'm, uh, here to get my order, and, uh…
- Yeah.

283
00:13:47.625 --> 00:13:49.041
I'll have what she's having.

284
00:13:49.125 --> 00:13:50.291
[chuckles]

285
00:13:51.333 --> 00:13:54.416
Uh, Luke, you live
pretty close to South Peak, yeah?

286
00:13:54.500 --> 00:13:56.125
- No!
- Yeah.

287
00:13:56.208 --> 00:13:59.125
Would you mind
just giving my sister a ride home?

288
00:13:59.208 --> 00:14:00.875
- Rodger and I need to close.
- [Ashley] No.

289
00:14:01.666 --> 00:14:04.166
I can just use a, um, rideshare app.

290
00:14:04.250 --> 00:14:06.791
You do know this is Sycamore Creek, right?

291
00:14:07.666 --> 00:14:09.250
Okay, but I haven't even eaten yet.

292
00:14:12.250 --> 00:14:14.291
Okay. Here we go.

293
00:14:15.208 --> 00:14:17.375
Wow. Such good cookies. Okay.

294
00:14:17.458 --> 00:14:18.625
Thanks, buddy.

295
00:14:18.708 --> 00:14:20.500
Watch out for the guard dog.

296
00:14:20.583 --> 00:14:21.500
How could I forget?

297
00:14:21.583 --> 00:14:24.208
Come on, city girl. Your chariot awaits.

298
00:14:24.291 --> 00:14:25.875
You know, you got a little, uh…

299
00:14:28.750 --> 00:14:29.750
[door chimes]

300
00:14:29.833 --> 00:14:32.666
[country music playing on radio]

301
00:14:33.916 --> 00:14:36.083
[sighs] Thanks. So

302
00:14:37.333 --> 00:14:40.250
how long have you been, um, carpentering?

303
00:14:42.291 --> 00:14:44.416
Don't think I've ever
heard that term before.

304
00:14:44.500 --> 00:14:45.541
No.

305
00:14:45.625 --> 00:14:46.500
I like it.

306
00:14:47.250 --> 00:14:49.791
My father was a general contractor,

307
00:14:49.875 --> 00:14:52.166
so I practically grew up in a toolbox.

308
00:14:52.250 --> 00:14:53.500
- Hmm.
- What about you?

309
00:14:53.583 --> 00:14:56.666
Oh, no, I'm more of
a call-the-building-super kind of gal.

310
00:14:57.833 --> 00:14:59.208
I mean, for work.

311
00:14:59.291 --> 00:15:01.958
Oh. Um, I'm a dancer.

312
00:15:03.791 --> 00:15:04.791
Oh.

313
00:15:05.666 --> 00:15:06.500
Okay.

314
00:15:06.583 --> 00:15:08.833
No, not that kind of dancer.

315
00:15:08.916 --> 00:15:10.875
Uh, Broadway. [chuckles]

316
00:15:10.958 --> 00:15:12.041
Oh.

317
00:15:12.125 --> 00:15:14.125
So you're a diva.

318
00:15:14.208 --> 00:15:16.125
What? No, I am a Jingle Belle.

319
00:15:16.208 --> 00:15:18.083
So you're an impressive diva.

320
00:15:18.166 --> 00:15:19.750
[scoffs, chuckles]

321
00:15:19.833 --> 00:15:24.416
To be honest,
I am currently on an indefinite hiatus.

322
00:15:25.541 --> 00:15:26.708
I'm sorry to hear that.

323
00:15:26.791 --> 00:15:27.708
Yeah.

324
00:15:28.208 --> 00:15:31.916
But enough about me.
What about you, Mr. Toolbox?

325
00:15:32.500 --> 00:15:35.375
I wanna know.
Why have you been helping my parents?

326
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:37.041
That's easy.

327
00:15:37.708 --> 00:15:40.166
When I first moved here,
I didn't know very many people.

328
00:15:40.250 --> 00:15:42.375
But I loved going to the Rhythm Room.

329
00:15:42.458 --> 00:15:43.666
So much fun.

330
00:15:44.166 --> 00:15:46.375
And your folks,
they always went out of their way

331
00:15:46.458 --> 00:15:47.833
to make me feel at home.

332
00:15:48.750 --> 00:15:50.541
Yeah. Sounds like them.

333
00:15:59.125 --> 00:16:00.583
All right, just-- oh.

334
00:16:00.666 --> 00:16:01.625
Hey.

335
00:16:02.208 --> 00:16:05.125
- All right, don't forget this.
- Yep. Thank you. I got it.

336
00:16:05.208 --> 00:16:06.250
[Luke] Okay.

337
00:16:06.833 --> 00:16:07.666
And this.

338
00:16:08.250 --> 00:16:09.083
[laughs]

339
00:16:10.541 --> 00:16:11.875
And your salad.

340
00:16:12.375 --> 00:16:13.375
All right. [exhales]

341
00:16:14.375 --> 00:16:16.333
Um, thanks for the ride.

342
00:16:16.916 --> 00:16:17.875
No problem.

343
00:16:18.541 --> 00:16:20.375
[sighs] Guess I'll see you around.

344
00:16:20.958 --> 00:16:22.083
For sure.

345
00:16:23.541 --> 00:16:24.375
Good night.

346
00:16:24.958 --> 00:16:25.791
Night.

347
00:16:29.291 --> 00:16:30.833
[whispers] What was that?

348
00:16:30.916 --> 00:16:32.083
[engine turns over]

349
00:16:32.750 --> 00:16:33.666
[chuckles]

350
00:16:39.583 --> 00:16:41.375
- [dog barks]
- Gizmo!

351
00:16:41.458 --> 00:16:43.125
My scary little guard dog.

352
00:16:43.208 --> 00:16:44.583
Oh, yes.

353
00:16:44.666 --> 00:16:46.750
- You are so fierce, aren't you?
- [Gizmo whimpers]

354
00:16:46.833 --> 00:16:49.458
Okay. Let's go find Auntie Ashley's room.

355
00:16:57.333 --> 00:16:58.500
You kept all these?

356
00:16:58.583 --> 00:17:00.208
Of course I did.

357
00:17:00.291 --> 00:17:01.541
You're my sister.

358
00:17:02.041 --> 00:17:03.208
I'm so proud of you.

359
00:17:04.958 --> 00:17:07.875
Sometimes I think
Mom and Dad would have preferred if I just

360
00:17:07.958 --> 00:17:09.416
performed at the Rhythm Room.

361
00:17:09.500 --> 00:17:10.333
[Gizmo whimpers]

362
00:17:10.416 --> 00:17:15.041
I think they would have preferred if
you came to visit every once in a while.

363
00:17:15.125 --> 00:17:16.666
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [chuckles]

364
00:17:16.750 --> 00:17:19.083
But you gotta do what you gotta do, right?

365
00:17:19.166 --> 00:17:20.541
- [Gizmo whimpers]
- Yeah.

366
00:17:20.625 --> 00:17:24.083
Speaking of, um… how's Luke?

367
00:17:24.958 --> 00:17:26.375
News flash.

368
00:17:26.458 --> 00:17:30.166
Women no longer need a male companion
to solidify their happiness.

369
00:17:30.250 --> 00:17:32.416
- We can also vote now.
- Oh, congrats.

370
00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:33.333
Mm-hmm.

371
00:17:33.416 --> 00:17:36.833
I'm so sorry that I just
want my baby sister to be happy.

372
00:17:36.916 --> 00:17:38.625
I <i>was </i>happy.

373
00:17:39.208 --> 00:17:41.166
You know, the show
was more than just a job.

374
00:17:41.250 --> 00:17:45.416
It was, you know,
strength training, flexibility training,

375
00:17:45.500 --> 00:17:48.416
blocking, choreography,
not to mention performing every night,

376
00:17:48.500 --> 00:17:49.375
twice on weekends.

377
00:17:49.458 --> 00:17:52.125
I… I didn't even have time
to think about dating.

378
00:17:52.208 --> 00:17:53.458
Well, now you do.

379
00:17:54.625 --> 00:17:57.541
Yes, yes. That was my first thought
when they canned me.

380
00:17:57.625 --> 00:18:01.083
[chuckles] Well, what about in the show?

381
00:18:01.583 --> 00:18:02.833
Are there any cute guys?

382
00:18:02.916 --> 00:18:05.250
No. No showbiz guys.

383
00:18:06.708 --> 00:18:09.083
I want, like, a professional, you know?

384
00:18:09.166 --> 00:18:12.041
Like, remember the surgeon
you dated before Rodger?

385
00:18:12.125 --> 00:18:13.791
[laughing]

386
00:18:13.875 --> 00:18:15.500
What's so funny?

387
00:18:15.583 --> 00:18:16.583
Okay.

388
00:18:19.875 --> 00:18:23.625
I'm gonna tell you something, but you
gotta promise to never tell anybody.

389
00:18:23.708 --> 00:18:25.000
Okay, what?

390
00:18:27.791 --> 00:18:31.500
Max wasn't exactly a real doctor.

391
00:18:32.208 --> 00:18:35.208
He just played one
at bachelorette parties.

392
00:18:37.958 --> 00:18:39.583
- [Ashley gasps]
- [snickers]

393
00:18:39.666 --> 00:18:42.791
Marie Rose Davis, did you date a stripper?

394
00:18:42.875 --> 00:18:44.250
Shh! Shh.

395
00:18:44.333 --> 00:18:45.541
You dated a stripper?

396
00:18:45.625 --> 00:18:49.041
Well, not-- you know,
he was a doctor stripper.

397
00:18:49.125 --> 00:18:51.541
- It's different.
- Sure. Yeah, I mean…

398
00:18:51.625 --> 00:18:54.041
I know, it was
very, very off-brand for me.

399
00:18:54.125 --> 00:18:55.208
I am impressed.

400
00:18:55.291 --> 00:18:56.750
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.

401
00:18:56.833 --> 00:18:59.291
Okay, but you gotta promise
this stays in the vault.

402
00:18:59.375 --> 00:19:00.791
Oh, yes. Vaulted for life.

403
00:19:00.875 --> 00:19:01.791
Okay.

404
00:19:01.875 --> 00:19:03.500
- What's vaulted for life?
- [Marie] Uh…

405
00:19:04.375 --> 00:19:05.958
Oh, um, I don't…

406
00:19:06.041 --> 00:19:08.250
I think… [splutters]

407
00:19:08.333 --> 00:19:10.000
Ash, what was-- what are we talking about?

408
00:19:10.083 --> 00:19:12.791
You know, I-- I-- I do know,

409
00:19:12.875 --> 00:19:16.208
and I can't tell you because it's--
it's medical, and that's confidential.

410
00:19:16.291 --> 00:19:17.541
Mm. Yeah. [chuckles]

411
00:19:17.625 --> 00:19:18.458
Um…

412
00:19:19.291 --> 00:19:20.125
Right.

413
00:19:20.208 --> 00:19:21.166
[chuckles]

414
00:19:21.958 --> 00:19:22.833
Okay.

415
00:19:29.916 --> 00:19:30.958
Mom?

416
00:19:31.500 --> 00:19:32.500
Dad?

417
00:19:35.625 --> 00:19:36.625
What's…

418
00:19:41.250 --> 00:19:42.875
Ugh. Mom?

419
00:19:42.958 --> 00:19:43.833
- Dad?
- [Luke] Ow!

420
00:19:43.916 --> 00:19:45.500
- Oh, my God. Luke?
- [metal clangs]

421
00:19:45.583 --> 00:19:48.000
What are you doing under there?
You scared me.

422
00:19:48.083 --> 00:19:49.125
I scared you?

423
00:19:49.208 --> 00:19:50.875
Oh, my God. You're naked.

424
00:19:50.958 --> 00:19:51.875
What?

425
00:19:52.791 --> 00:19:55.416
- Okay, first of all, I'm not naked.
- Oh, right.

426
00:19:55.500 --> 00:19:56.708
My shirt was drying.

427
00:19:57.208 --> 00:20:00.916
And second of all, I'm only down there
because someone broke the faucet.

428
00:20:01.625 --> 00:20:04.208
Allegedly. And it was broken already.

429
00:20:05.250 --> 00:20:06.250
Fair.

430
00:20:06.875 --> 00:20:08.125
You mind giving me a hand?

431
00:20:09.041 --> 00:20:10.291
Only if I can get it back.

432
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:12.041
Witty.

433
00:20:14.458 --> 00:20:18.041
All I need you to do is hold the faucet
steady while I tighten the connector.

434
00:20:18.125 --> 00:20:18.958
Got it?

435
00:20:19.041 --> 00:20:20.333
Easy-peasy.

436
00:20:20.916 --> 00:20:22.041
All right. Here, right here.

437
00:20:22.125 --> 00:20:24.041
Oh, okay. Yeah, got it.

438
00:20:24.791 --> 00:20:26.041
[grunts] You got it?

439
00:20:26.125 --> 00:20:27.875
Yeah. [sighs]

440
00:20:28.541 --> 00:20:30.000
[wrench clicking]

441
00:20:30.083 --> 00:20:32.916
[Luke grunts] Okay. All right.

442
00:20:33.708 --> 00:20:35.250
Here, oh, I--

443
00:20:35.333 --> 00:20:36.875
- Sorry. I was just gonna…
- Turn it.

444
00:20:39.791 --> 00:20:40.791
And voilà.

445
00:20:42.416 --> 00:20:44.458
Teamwork makes the dream work. Hmm.

446
00:20:45.208 --> 00:20:47.500
Wow, that's very impressive.

447
00:20:47.583 --> 00:20:48.750
[chuckles]

448
00:20:48.833 --> 00:20:50.000
Yoo-hoo!

449
00:20:50.083 --> 00:20:52.041
- Is anybody here?
- I, uh, um…

450
00:20:52.125 --> 00:20:53.666
Yep. I'll get that. [exhales]

451
00:20:54.666 --> 00:20:55.833
[Luke] I'll be in the back.

452
00:20:56.708 --> 00:20:59.458
- Denise. Hi.
- Hi. Are your parents around?

453
00:20:59.541 --> 00:21:01.291
Ah, no. Not yet.

454
00:21:01.375 --> 00:21:03.250
Is there something I can help you with?

455
00:21:03.333 --> 00:21:05.416
Well, I'd prefer
to speak with them privately.

456
00:21:05.500 --> 00:21:08.083
Oh, I'm sure anything
you have to say, I can handle it.

457
00:21:08.666 --> 00:21:11.041
I realize what a stressful time
it's been for your parents,

458
00:21:11.125 --> 00:21:14.625
and that's why I'm thrilled to let them
know that I have some good news.

459
00:21:14.708 --> 00:21:15.875
Oh, yeah? What is it?

460
00:21:16.458 --> 00:21:17.375
Squeeze Me.

461
00:21:17.875 --> 00:21:19.625
- No, thank you.
- [Denise chuckles]

462
00:21:19.708 --> 00:21:22.250
No, Squeeze Me, the juice bar.

463
00:21:22.833 --> 00:21:24.208
Oh, okay. What about it?

464
00:21:24.291 --> 00:21:26.250
I spoke to their
regional manager last night,

465
00:21:26.333 --> 00:21:29.666
and he's willing to take over
your parents' lease as of January 1st.

466
00:21:30.250 --> 00:21:33.083
Best of all,
he'll pay their entire backlog.

467
00:21:33.166 --> 00:21:34.583
[Ashley gasps]

468
00:21:34.666 --> 00:21:36.583
So your good news is that my parents

469
00:21:36.666 --> 00:21:40.083
are going to lose
the Rhythm Room to a-- a juice bar?

470
00:21:40.166 --> 00:21:43.500
- And be made whole in the process.
- Okay, how much could they owe?

471
00:21:44.958 --> 00:21:46.416
Six months' rent.

472
00:21:46.500 --> 00:21:49.500
- Plus maintenance, repairs.
- Uh…

473
00:21:49.583 --> 00:21:50.625
Interest.

474
00:21:51.375 --> 00:21:52.750
$30,000.

475
00:21:54.958 --> 00:21:56.125
[clears throat] Denise.

476
00:21:56.791 --> 00:21:59.166
The Rhythm Room,
it's-- it's a town staple.

477
00:21:59.250 --> 00:22:01.083
You cannot shut it down.

478
00:22:01.583 --> 00:22:06.000
Ashley, the Rhythm Room <i>was </i>a town staple.

479
00:22:06.625 --> 00:22:08.083
But now it's…

480
00:22:09.208 --> 00:22:11.125
It's just another… [sighs]

481
00:22:12.083 --> 00:22:15.041
…hole-in-the-wall
with too many holes in the walls

482
00:22:15.125 --> 00:22:16.875
and no customers.

483
00:22:18.125 --> 00:22:21.958
Well, then we will bring in some new acts.

484
00:22:22.041 --> 00:22:24.458
Oh, sweetie, you don't need new acts.

485
00:22:24.541 --> 00:22:27.916
You need a doctor,
because this place is on life support.

486
00:22:29.041 --> 00:22:32.166
[Marie] <i>Max wasn't exactly a real doctor.</i>

487
00:22:32.250 --> 00:22:33.208
Wait.

488
00:22:33.958 --> 00:22:35.000
That's it.

489
00:22:35.750 --> 00:22:36.625
A doctor?

490
00:22:37.208 --> 00:22:39.625
Yes. Uh, no, no. Um…

491
00:22:40.208 --> 00:22:43.083
A… A male dance revue.

492
00:22:43.625 --> 00:22:47.291
And it's, uh…
It's gonna be a Christmas spectacular

493
00:22:47.375 --> 00:22:49.500
full of hot up-and-coming…

494
00:22:49.583 --> 00:22:51.291
- [door opens]
- …men.

495
00:22:51.916 --> 00:22:52.750
[sighs]

496
00:22:52.833 --> 00:22:55.333
Oh. And here's one now. Luke.

497
00:22:57.250 --> 00:22:58.250
Here's who?

498
00:22:58.333 --> 00:23:00.958
It-- one of the men, yeah. [chuckles]

499
00:23:03.166 --> 00:23:04.958
Ashley was just telling me about

500
00:23:05.041 --> 00:23:08.291
the Christmas spectacular
that you're starring in?

501
00:23:08.375 --> 00:23:09.583
The what now?

502
00:23:09.666 --> 00:23:10.791
Remember?

503
00:23:10.875 --> 00:23:12.125
Oh. Oh!

504
00:23:12.208 --> 00:23:15.791
- [Ashley chuckles]
<i>- That </i>Christmas spectacular.

505
00:23:16.416 --> 00:23:18.791
Yeah. No, I'm really
looking forward to it.

506
00:23:18.875 --> 00:23:20.625
Yeah. Lots of singing.

507
00:23:20.708 --> 00:23:23.541
- Dancing.
- Dancing. Lots of dancing.

508
00:23:23.625 --> 00:23:27.791
- Yeah.
- Yeah, it's just gonna be so… spectacular.

509
00:23:27.875 --> 00:23:30.333
And actually, we would
love for you to be here

510
00:23:30.416 --> 00:23:32.125
for our grand premiere.

511
00:23:32.958 --> 00:23:35.291
- We would?
- That is if you're not too busy.

512
00:23:35.375 --> 00:23:36.916
Are you kidding me?

513
00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:38.208
This I have to see.

514
00:23:38.291 --> 00:23:39.625
[all chuckle]

515
00:23:39.708 --> 00:23:40.708
Great.

516
00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:45.250
This, uh, male dance revue of yours,

517
00:23:45.875 --> 00:23:47.125
does it have a name?

518
00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:49.500
- Uh-huh. Yeah.
- Hmm?

519
00:23:49.583 --> 00:23:50.916
It's called the…

520
00:23:51.750 --> 00:23:54.041
Merry Gentlemen.

521
00:23:54.125 --> 00:23:55.541
- Cute.
- [Ashley] Yeah.

522
00:23:55.625 --> 00:23:56.833
[Denise] See you soon.

523
00:23:58.208 --> 00:24:00.000
- Oof!
- What was that about?

524
00:24:00.083 --> 00:24:03.250
Well, she was coming in here
and talking about evicting us,

525
00:24:03.333 --> 00:24:04.291
so I just panicked.

526
00:24:04.875 --> 00:24:06.083
Panicked or perjured?

527
00:24:06.166 --> 00:24:07.583
- Oh, very funny.
- [Luke] Mm.

528
00:24:07.666 --> 00:24:10.250
Let's think this through,
'cause I think this is a good idea.

529
00:24:10.333 --> 00:24:13.291
Think what through?
We're not actually gonna do it.

530
00:24:13.375 --> 00:24:15.208

Fifteen minutes to showtime.

710
00:32:16.291 --> 00:32:17.708
[Ashley] Ooh! Oh.

711
00:32:17.791 --> 00:32:19.708
- Oh, God.
- No, no, no. Hey. Hey.

712
00:32:20.458 --> 00:32:21.583
You are gonna be great.

713
00:32:22.958 --> 00:32:24.125
I promise.

714
00:32:26.708 --> 00:32:28.625
All right, let's get ready.

715
00:32:28.708 --> 00:32:30.625
- [whoops]
- [exhales]

716
00:32:30.708 --> 00:32:32.708
[inhales, exhales]

717
00:32:39.625 --> 00:32:43.166
[upbeat Christmas music playing]

718
00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:47.833
[audience cheering]

719
00:32:49.375 --> 00:32:51.083
[woman] Yeah, baby. Whoo!

720
00:32:51.166 --> 00:32:54.416
Whoo!

721
00:32:54.500 --> 00:32:56.250
[audience screams]

722
00:33:02.500 --> 00:33:04.625
[shouting]

723
00:33:08.250 --> 00:33:09.500
[cheering continues]

724
00:33:15.583 --> 00:33:17.583
[audience screams]

725
00:33:17.666 --> 00:33:19.541
Whoo! [shouts]

726
00:33:20.791 --> 00:33:22.083
Whoo!

727
00:33:23.166 --> 00:33:25.583
[audience cheering]

728
00:33:30.583 --> 00:33:32.458
[woman] Whoo-hoo!

729
00:33:32.541 --> 00:33:34.083
Shut your eyes.

730
00:33:34.166 --> 00:33:36.791
[audience screaming]

731
00:33:38.875 --> 00:33:40.291
[music continues]

732
00:33:46.125 --> 00:33:47.500
One, two, three.

733
00:33:56.000 --> 00:33:57.958
[audience shouting]

734
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:02.458
[cheering]

735
00:34:03.041 --> 00:34:04.791
- Whoo!
- Whoo!

736
00:34:04.875 --> 00:34:07.041
Whoo-hoo-hoo!

737
00:34:10.541 --> 00:34:11.541
[man] Yeah!

738
00:34:11.625 --> 00:34:14.041
- [Rodger] I almost lost my belt.
- [Troy] Yeah, I pulled it off.

739
00:34:14.125 --> 00:34:15.500
- Great job, fellas.
- [Troy] Thanks.

740
00:34:15.583 --> 00:34:17.500
- Yeah, I just stopped--
- Ashley?

741
00:34:17.583 --> 00:34:18.916
Hmm? Oh, hi.

742
00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:22.666
I must admit, when you
first mentioned your little "spectacular,"

743
00:34:22.750 --> 00:34:24.583
I thought it sounded a little…

744
00:34:24.666 --> 00:34:26.416
Mm… ridiculous?

745
00:34:26.958 --> 00:34:27.833
Optimistic.

746
00:34:27.916 --> 00:34:30.625
But I was wrong. It was great.

747
00:34:30.708 --> 00:34:32.416
Did you see
all those ladies that showed up?

748
00:34:32.500 --> 00:34:34.833
- Oh, they were loving it.
- [Denise] And you!

749
00:34:34.916 --> 00:34:37.750
- I…
- Congratulations on a great show.

750
00:34:37.833 --> 00:34:38.833
Oh, thank you.

751
00:34:39.458 --> 00:34:40.375
My number.

752
00:34:42.500 --> 00:34:43.875
- Oh, hey.
- Here you go.

753
00:34:45.250 --> 00:34:48.583
Everyone was clapping
and cheering and dancing.

754
00:34:48.666 --> 00:34:50.458
- It was like the old days.
- [Ashley chuckles]

755
00:34:50.541 --> 00:34:51.500
Sort of.

756
00:34:51.583 --> 00:34:52.958
- [all chuckle]
- [Ashley] Yeah.

757
00:34:53.041 --> 00:34:56.375
We haven't made that much
in one night in years. [chuckles]

758
00:34:57.583 --> 00:34:59.666
I'm just glad everyone had a nice time.

759
00:35:00.791 --> 00:35:04.333
Uh, excuse me, everyone.
I'd-- I'd like to make a toast.

760
00:35:04.416 --> 00:35:06.416
To… Ashley.

761
00:35:06.500 --> 00:35:08.333
[Ashley gulps, exhales]

762
00:35:08.416 --> 00:35:12.416
For taking a chance on a guy
who… didn't even want one.

763
00:35:12.500 --> 00:35:13.750
- [Marie chuckles]
- [Danny] Ha.

764
00:35:13.833 --> 00:35:15.333
Look, but seriously, uh,

765
00:35:16.333 --> 00:35:19.708
the fact that you were able
to put this whole thing together

766
00:35:19.791 --> 00:35:23.208
in such a short amount of time
is absolutely incredible.

767
00:35:23.291 --> 00:35:24.541
Thank you.

768
00:35:24.625 --> 00:35:28.291
Not to mention teach
a couple of goofy guys this choreography.

769
00:35:28.375 --> 00:35:29.958
- Good on you.
- [Dad laughs]

770
00:35:30.041 --> 00:35:31.958
You know, I had a really good partner.

771
00:35:32.041 --> 00:35:33.125
[sniffs]

772
00:35:34.958 --> 00:35:35.916
To Ashley.

773
00:35:36.791 --> 00:35:37.708
Oh, stop.

774
00:35:37.791 --> 00:35:39.250
- To Ashley.
- Yep.

775
00:35:39.333 --> 00:35:40.708
I can't take all the credit.

776
00:35:40.791 --> 00:35:43.791
I think I gotta give a shout-out
to the Merry Gentlemen.

777
00:35:43.875 --> 00:35:46.833
- Yes.
- With tidings of comfort and joy!

778
00:35:46.916 --> 00:35:50.208
Well, speaking of comfort and joy,
let's get you home.

779
00:35:50.291 --> 00:35:51.125
- Ooh.
- [Ashley] Oh.

780
00:35:51.208 --> 00:35:52.791
- [Rodger] All right.
- We're right here.

781
00:35:53.583 --> 00:35:56.541
Well… you pulled it off.

782
00:35:56.625 --> 00:35:57.958
- Congrats.
- Thank you.

783
00:35:58.833 --> 00:36:00.041
[Danny] Looking good, Slick.

784
00:36:00.916 --> 00:36:02.750
You did look good, Slick.

785
00:36:03.458 --> 00:36:04.291
Funny.

786
00:36:04.375 --> 00:36:05.375
Oh, uh,

787
00:36:06.541 --> 00:36:07.583
I almost forgot.

788
00:36:08.541 --> 00:36:11.833
I got you a little something.
Just a little something to remember me by.

789
00:36:11.916 --> 00:36:13.083
- Mm.
- Luke.

790
00:36:13.166 --> 00:36:14.250
It's nothing, just…

791
00:36:15.416 --> 00:36:16.500
[Ashley] That's so sweet.

792
00:36:17.166 --> 00:36:18.041
Okay.

793
00:36:20.583 --> 00:36:23.333
I will forever be grateful to that wreath

794
00:36:23.416 --> 00:36:26.208
for pulling you into my life.

795
00:36:28.375 --> 00:36:29.375
This is…

796
00:36:30.916 --> 00:36:31.791
[sighs]

797
00:36:31.875 --> 00:36:33.333
- May I?
- Yeah. Uh…

798
00:36:37.708 --> 00:36:38.666
Yeah.

799
00:36:40.208 --> 00:36:41.291
[Luke] And…

800
00:36:42.833 --> 00:36:43.958
there we go.

801
00:36:45.958 --> 00:36:48.041
[inhales, sighs]

802
00:36:49.750 --> 00:36:50.833
Stunning.

803
00:36:51.541 --> 00:36:52.583
Thank you.

804
00:36:53.708 --> 00:36:55.958
You know, it's a nice night.

805
00:36:56.583 --> 00:36:57.833
May I walk you home?

806
00:36:59.375 --> 00:37:01.500
Only if we can get something to eat.

807
00:37:01.583 --> 00:37:02.416
I'm starving.

808
00:37:02.500 --> 00:37:03.416
[chuckles]

809
00:37:07.750 --> 00:37:09.208
- You know…
- Hmm?

810
00:37:09.291 --> 00:37:10.541
I have to admit,

811
00:37:11.500 --> 00:37:15.916
that pizza was a close second
to a New York slice.

812
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:16.833
[chuckles]

813
00:37:17.458 --> 00:37:19.791
You know, they import
the water from the East Coast

814
00:37:19.875 --> 00:37:22.125
just to give it that authentic flavor.

815
00:37:22.208 --> 00:37:23.083
Is that true?

816
00:37:23.166 --> 00:37:24.791
I'm just kidding. I have no idea.

817
00:37:24.875 --> 00:37:25.958
[both laugh]

818
00:37:27.708 --> 00:37:29.750
So, tell me something about yourself.

819
00:37:29.833 --> 00:37:31.458
- Me?
- Yeah.

820
00:37:32.041 --> 00:37:33.875
You know, married, boyfriend?

821
00:37:35.500 --> 00:37:36.333
Uh…

822
00:37:36.416 --> 00:37:37.666
I don't mean to pry.

823
00:37:37.750 --> 00:37:39.291
I'm just making friendly conversation.

824
00:37:39.375 --> 00:37:41.041
No. None of the above.

825
00:37:42.166 --> 00:37:43.166
How about you?

826
00:37:44.250 --> 00:37:46.666
Uh, I <i>was </i>married.

827
00:37:46.750 --> 00:37:47.958
For a while.

828
00:37:48.041 --> 00:37:51.416
But that was a complete disaster.

829
00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:54.166
Sorry.

830
00:37:54.250 --> 00:37:57.583
Oh, thank you. But you know,
one good thing came out of it.

831
00:37:57.666 --> 00:37:58.750
What is that?

832
00:37:58.833 --> 00:38:00.125
Sycamore Creek.

833
00:38:01.333 --> 00:38:03.833
It's funny. I moved here for her.

834
00:38:03.916 --> 00:38:06.250
Ironically, I'm the one
who ended up staying.

835
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:07.833
[Ashley] Hmm.

836
00:38:07.916 --> 00:38:09.000
I mean, this is…

837
00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:12.416
I don't know. It's the best place
I could have asked for.

838
00:38:12.958 --> 00:38:15.000
I wish I knew what to ask for.

839
00:38:15.875 --> 00:38:17.250
Or who to ask.

840
00:38:19.500 --> 00:38:20.750
You know, hold that thought.

841
00:38:22.416 --> 00:38:23.833
You focus on the what.

842
00:38:25.125 --> 00:38:26.625
I think I know the who.

843
00:38:26.708 --> 00:38:27.708
Come on.

844
00:38:32.458 --> 00:38:34.458
Uh, excuse me, Santa.

845
00:38:34.541 --> 00:38:36.666
Hi. Time for one more?

846
00:38:36.750 --> 00:38:40.333
Well, that depends.
Have you been naughty or nice?

847
00:38:40.416 --> 00:38:43.333
Are you serious? I haven't
done this since elementary school.

848
00:38:43.416 --> 00:38:46.250
Oh, well, then you are long overdue.

849
00:38:46.333 --> 00:38:47.916
Merry Christmas, you two.

850
00:38:48.000 --> 00:38:49.375
- Thank you.
- Merry Christmas, Santa.

851
00:38:49.458 --> 00:38:51.875
- [Santa chuckles]
- All right. Oh.

852
00:38:51.958 --> 00:38:54.166
- Sit. The whole experience.
- [Ashley clears throat]

853
00:38:54.250 --> 00:38:55.291
- [elf] There we go.
- Yes.

854
00:38:56.166 --> 00:38:57.125
Yep.

855
00:38:59.625 --> 00:39:01.458
- Hmm.
- Don't mind if I do.

856
00:39:01.541 --> 00:39:02.708
- [Ashley] Okay.
- [Luke] Oh.

857
00:39:04.041 --> 00:39:05.791
[Santa] All right, now.
On the count of three,

858
00:39:05.875 --> 00:39:08.791
I want you
to give me your best "ho, ho, ho!"

859
00:39:08.875 --> 00:39:09.916
- Ready?
- Yep.

860
00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:12.708
One, two, three.

861
00:39:12.791 --> 00:39:14.875
[all] Ho, ho, ho!

862
00:39:15.375 --> 00:39:16.541
[camera shutter clicks]

863
00:39:18.000 --> 00:39:20.166
What? What is it?

864
00:39:20.250 --> 00:39:21.291
Nothing.

865
00:39:21.375 --> 00:39:22.916
No, no. You don't get to do that.

866
00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:25.666
I just took my shirt off
for half the town.

867
00:39:25.750 --> 00:39:27.375
- [chuckles]
- You owe me.

868
00:39:29.791 --> 00:39:31.333
I don't know. I was just…

869
00:39:31.958 --> 00:39:34.125
[clears throat] Well…

870
00:39:35.375 --> 00:39:36.750
I was just thinking…

871
00:39:38.833 --> 00:39:40.666
it's always been me on stage,

872
00:39:41.708 --> 00:39:43.750
and I was always in the spotlight.

873
00:39:44.583 --> 00:39:46.958
It's all I ever wanted to do, was perform.

874
00:39:47.791 --> 00:39:48.666
But?

875
00:39:49.750 --> 00:39:50.708
But

876
00:39:51.916 --> 00:39:53.500
watching you guys tonight

877
00:39:54.375 --> 00:39:56.666
and seeing how far you've come,

878
00:39:56.750 --> 00:39:59.791
I mean, it was unexpectedly…

879
00:40:02.375 --> 00:40:03.375
enjoyable.

880
00:40:06.750 --> 00:40:08.125
Do you miss performing?

881
00:40:08.833 --> 00:40:09.833
I did.

882
00:40:10.916 --> 00:40:11.833
[Luke] Hmm.

883
00:40:12.625 --> 00:40:13.833
You know what they say.

884
00:40:15.083 --> 00:40:17.250
When one door closes, another one opens.

885
00:40:18.791 --> 00:40:20.083
Okay. So then…

886
00:40:22.458 --> 00:40:23.916
what's behind this door?

887
00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:29.333
Just a carpenter.

888
00:40:39.958 --> 00:40:41.166
[Ashley] All right.

889
00:40:47.583 --> 00:40:50.458
[exhales] I think we might

1235
00:58:32.416 --> 00:58:33.625
Jodie, hi.

1236
00:58:34.250 --> 00:58:38.250
Ashley, I know this call
must come as a bit of a surprise.

1237
00:58:38.333 --> 00:58:41.083
[scoffs] To say the least.
What-- what's up?

1238
00:58:41.166 --> 00:58:42.833
I'll cut right to it. Uh…

1239
00:58:43.500 --> 00:58:45.750
We have a 9-1-1 situation on our hands.

1240

<i>I need you to come back immediately.</i>

1241
00:58:47.875 --> 00:58:48.708

1242
00:58:49.791 --> 00:58:50.750

1243
00:58:50.833 --> 00:58:54.625
Burned out. Some people just
can't handle the pressure of showbiz.

1244
00:58:54.708 --> 00:58:57.375
[chuckles] And-- and-- and her understudy?

[Jodie] <i>She's down with the flurona.</i>

1246

You're not afraid the audience
will be distracted by my gray hair?

1249
00:59:11.000 --> 00:59:15.458
I've convinced the producers that
they made a big mistake in letting you go.

1250
00:59:15.541 --> 00:59:19.666
And to make it up to you,
they're prepared to offer you a 25% raise.

1251
00:59:20.791 --> 00:59:22.041
Twenty-five percent?

1252
00:59:22.666 --> 00:59:24.333
Along with a three-year contract.

1253
00:59:25.291 --> 00:59:28.083

1257
00:59:37.708 --> 00:59:41.541
Great. Uh, I'll have Marilyn
book you a first-class ticket,

Wait, tomorrow night?
No, that's Christmas Eve.

1260
00:59:48.000 --> 00:59:51.375
I need you back in time
for the big Christmas Day show.

1261
00:59:51.458 --> 00:59:52.958
That's not a problem, is it?

1262
00:59:54.041 --> 00:59:55.125
I…

1263
00:59:55.208 --> 00:59:57.166
I just didn't think it would be so soon.

1264
00:59:57.250 --> 00:59:59.750
I pulled a lot of strings for this,

1265
00:59:59.833 --> 01:00:02.416
so don't take too long to decide, okay?

1266
01:00:03.958 --> 01:00:04.791
I won't.

1267
01:00:05.791 --> 01:00:06.666
Thank you.

1268
01:00:20.541 --> 01:00:21.708
[Ashley] Hey, Dad.

1269
01:00:21.791 --> 01:00:23.541
Ah, I didn't realize you were here.

1270
01:00:25.000 --> 01:00:26.875
- Yeah.
- You okay?

1271

Oh, uh… [sighs]

1272

the Jingle Belles just called.

1273
01:00:33.458 --> 01:00:34.333
And?

1274
01:00:35.041 --> 01:00:36.625
She offered me my old job back.

1275
01:00:37.208 --> 01:00:39.208
So they finally came to their senses.

1276

- [chuckles]
- Who came to their senses?

1277

The Jingle Belles.

1278
01:00:42.916 --> 01:00:45.458
They're offering me a three-year contract.

1279
01:00:45.541 --> 01:00:47.083
Of course they are.

1280
01:00:47.583 --> 01:00:49.583
Now that you've got something
even better here,

1281
01:00:49.666 --> 01:00:51.083
they realize they made a mistake.

1282
01:00:51.166 --> 01:00:53.416
Well, obviously, they made a mistake.

1283
01:00:53.500 --> 01:00:55.583
You are a wonderful talent, honey.

1284
01:00:56.083 --> 01:00:57.875
And a raise.

1285
01:00:57.958 --> 01:01:00.125
I hope you told them
where they could stick it.

1286
01:01:00.833 --> 01:01:03.375
[hesitates] I told them I wasn't sure.

1287
01:01:06.416 --> 01:01:08.416
It's all I've ever wanted to do.

1288
01:01:09.291 --> 01:01:10.208
You know that.

1289
01:01:11.333 --> 01:01:15.416
It's like my whole life has been
building up to being in that show.

1291
01:01:18.541 --> 01:01:20.000
When would you have to leave?

1292
01:01:21.875 --> 01:01:23.125
Tomorrow night.

1293
01:01:24.250 --> 01:01:25.125
Oh.

1294
01:01:26.208 --> 01:01:29.166
Well, you don't seem
that excited about it.

01:01:31.875 --> 01:01:35.458

to spending Christmas with you guys.

And we're so close to reaching our goal.

What is gonna happen
to this place if I go?

1299
01:01:40.916 --> 01:01:43.708
Thanks to you,
this place has some life again.

can't keep the show alive?

01:01:47.416 --> 01:01:49.208
Ever since you were a little girl,

1303
01:01:49.291 --> 01:01:51.666
all you ever talked about
was being a Jingle Belle.

1304
01:01:51.750 --> 01:01:52.750
Yeah.

let alone twice.

[Lily] And you should know

1309
01:02:03.041 --> 01:02:06.833
that the last thing we want is
for you to worry about this place.

1310
01:02:08.166 --> 01:02:10.333
- Your father and I will manage.

important years of your life.

You have to live them for you.

Okay?

What are you talking about?

1334
01:03:36.833 --> 01:03:39.291
Well, the Jingle Belles
offered me my old job back,

1335
01:03:39.375 --> 01:03:41.833
and I said… yes.

1336
01:03:43.416 --> 01:03:45.041
Yeah, I'm confused. Uh…

1337
01:03:46.333 --> 01:03:47.958
I thought they hired someone else.

1338
01:03:48.041 --> 01:03:49.083
Yeah, well, they did.

1339
01:03:49.166 --> 01:03:51.166
But then something happened, and

1340
01:03:52.791 --> 01:03:53.916
they changed their mind.

1341
01:03:56.625 --> 01:03:57.541
Um…

1342
01:04:00.250 --> 01:04:01.291
What about…

1343
01:04:01.375 --> 01:04:02.208
[Ashley sighs]

1344
01:04:07.791 --> 01:04:09.125
What about what?

1345
01:04:13.666 --> 01:04:14.791
Ashley, uh,

1346
01:04:15.625 --> 01:04:16.666
she's leaving us.

1347
01:04:18.083 --> 01:04:19.208
Wait, what?

1348
01:04:19.833 --> 01:04:22.583
Yeah, I'm-- I'm going back
to the Jingle Belles.

1349
01:04:24.208 --> 01:04:25.291
Well, what about our show?

1350
01:04:25.875 --> 01:04:29.041
Look, you guys should be
so proud of yourselves.

1351
01:04:29.125 --> 01:04:32.958
I mean, you've worked
your butts off night after night.

1352
01:04:33.041 --> 01:04:34.875
What you've done is incredible.

1353
01:04:37.083 --> 01:04:38.791
And I have all the faith in the world

1354
01:04:38.875 --> 01:04:40.375
that the show will go on

1355
01:04:41.291 --> 01:04:44.666
with or… without me.

1356
01:04:47.000 --> 01:04:49.458
But if I don't go now,

1357
01:04:49.541 --> 01:04:52.000
then I'm gonna lose
everything that I worked for.

1358
01:04:53.375 --> 01:04:55.166
What about everything we worked for?

1359
01:04:58.041 --> 01:04:58.958
Fine.

Luke. Luke, wait. Let me explain, please.

1365
01:05:11.416 --> 01:05:15.041
You know, for the first time
since Amy left,

1366
01:05:15.125 --> 01:05:17.458
I thought I found
something worthwhile in my life.

1367
01:05:17.541 --> 01:05:20.541
I didn't even wanna be
in this ridiculous show.

1368
01:05:20.625 --> 01:05:21.458
But I did it.

1369
01:05:22.250 --> 01:05:23.666
I did. I did it for you.

1370
01:05:24.375 --> 01:05:25.375
And for your family.

1371
01:05:26.458 --> 01:05:30.666
Because you had a passion
and a drive that was so inspiring.

1372
01:05:31.375 --> 01:05:34.166
It was almost impossible
for me not to wanna help you out.

1373
01:05:34.250 --> 01:05:35.375
Yeah?

1374
01:05:35.958 --> 01:05:37.541
And now you're just gonna leave

1375
01:05:39.083 --> 01:05:41.083
without even giving me a heads-up.

1376
01:05:41.166 --> 01:05:42.958
Well… [sighs]

1377
01:05:43.041 --> 01:05:45.291
You're supposed to be
my friendly face, remember?

1378
01:05:45.375 --> 01:05:47.375
Yes. That-- that is what I want.

1379
01:05:47.458 --> 01:05:52.000
I just… I don't know. I got scared,
and then it all happened so fast.

1380
01:05:53.166 --> 01:05:54.791
I was starting to fall for you, Ashley.

1381
01:05:56.375 --> 01:05:57.250
What?

1382
01:05:57.750 --> 01:06:00.000
Thank you for showing me
who you really are before I did.

You've got me all wrong.

your best performance yet.

01:07:19.125 --> 01:07:21.416
Thank you for everything.

1403
01:07:22.041 --> 01:07:23.583
So lucky to have the best big sister.

1404
01:07:25.291 --> 01:07:27.583
Don't let them push you around out there.

1405
01:07:27.666 --> 01:07:29.208
- Promise me?
- Promise.

1406
01:07:30.583 --> 01:07:32.958
So, were you able to connect with Luke?

1407
01:07:34.291 --> 01:07:35.583
[sighs]

1408
01:07:35.666 --> 01:07:36.875
He won't talk to me.

1409
01:07:37.541 --> 01:07:39.125
I can't say that I blame him.

1410
01:07:39.750 --> 01:07:41.791
Well, have you tried reaching out to him?

1411
01:07:41.875 --> 01:07:45.041
Maybe he just, you know,
needed some time to process everything.

1412
01:07:45.125 --> 01:07:47.875
I tried calling him. He didn't answer.

1413
01:07:49.250 --> 01:07:51.958
- You wanna try a little harder?
- Okay, and do what?

1414
01:07:52.041 --> 01:07:55.250
Show up to his house
holding up a boombox on his lawn?

1415
01:07:56.166 --> 01:07:57.833
Wouldn't be the worst idea.

1416
01:07:58.458 --> 01:08:02.125
I just feel like
I'm the last person he wants to talk to.

1417
01:08:02.625 --> 01:08:04.125
You don't know that.

1418
01:08:06.375 --> 01:08:07.708
I know you have feelings for him.

1419
01:08:09.333 --> 01:08:12.291
Yeah, like, the biggest feelings I've had…

1420
01:08:12.375 --> 01:08:14.083
[exhales] …in a long time.

1421
01:08:14.166 --> 01:08:15.916
Then you have to tell him.

1422
01:08:16.000 --> 01:08:17.875
Come on, you're gonna regret it
if you don't.

1423
01:08:18.833 --> 01:08:20.416
He needs to know how you feel.

1425
01:08:22.333 --> 01:08:25.416
I mean, what do you even
have to lose at this point?

1426
01:08:26.041 --> 01:08:27.250
I don't know.

1427
01:08:27.333 --> 01:08:28.541
Just think about it.

1428
01:08:29.500 --> 01:08:31.708
He's a really, really good guy, Ashley.

1429
01:08:32.333 --> 01:08:33.291
[Ashley] I know.

1430
01:08:49.458 --> 01:08:51.666

- [Ashley] Good. How are you?

1431

Rog, you keep coming in late on
the first hip thrust. Let's clean it up.

1436
01:09:09.458 --> 01:09:12.041
Maybe you should talk to Troy.
If he's late, that makes me late.

1437
01:09:12.125 --> 01:09:14.333
Did he say Troy?
I'm pretty sure he said Rodger.

1438
01:09:14.416 --> 01:09:16.916
No, I'm late because
I'm taking my cue from you, slowpoke.

1439
01:09:17.000 --> 01:09:18.041
Uh, yeah, don't look at me.

1440

My timing's always impeccable,
unlike some fools back here.

Hey, hey, hey! I've been shaking my booty
longer than you've been alive, kid.

What are we doing?

1449
01:09:38.166 --> 01:09:40.916
Let's just focus on
the choreography we've learned

1450
01:09:41.000 --> 01:09:42.791
and tighten up the cues, okay?

1451
01:09:43.541 --> 01:09:44.416
Good.

1452

Well, the expert isn't here, is she?

1454
01:09:50.041 --> 01:09:52.833
So… for now, I'm in charge.

1455

Stan, Lily, they're depending on us.

1460

It is Christmas Eve.
Do you know what that means?

1461
01:10:11.291 --> 01:10:13.500
That means if tonight doesn't work out,

1462

to the Rhythm Room forever.

- Why don't we all just take a five?

Ashley… I owe you an apology.

1614
01:19:09.083 --> 01:19:10.583
I underestimated you.

1615
01:19:11.291 --> 01:19:15.333
What you have done with this place
in such a short amount of time is just…

I did it all for them.

1620
01:19:27.083 --> 01:19:30.166
But that is not
the only reason I invited you today.

1621

- Oh.
- Yes.

1622
01:19:32.166 --> 01:19:35.750
Christmas dinner at the Rhythm Room
is a bit of a tradition around here.

1623
01:19:35.833 --> 01:19:37.041
Yes.

1624

that won't go away any time soon.

1626
01:19:40.708 --> 01:19:43.000
Yes. We would love for you to join us.

1627

[Luke] So

1632
01:19:58.541 --> 01:20:01.625
what's next for the famous Ashley Davis?

1633
01:20:02.666 --> 01:20:05.875
You know, for the first time
in my whole life, I have no idea.

it's not performing that's important.

1642
01:20:33.833 --> 01:20:35.541
It's who you perform for.
