00:00:00Let's see, uh, I'm Chris Parker. I'm 50. I, uh, spend most of my free time hiking and collecting climbing equipment.
00:00:12Um, I have a son and a granddaughter on the way.
00:00:1750? Girl, do you have that damn old?
00:00:19You said you're 52 on the dating app and you're definitely 60.
00:00:23Boys will be boys, even in their 60s.
00:00:25We'll start with London, and then Paris, and then Rome, and then all the way to Beijing. The three of us.
00:00:34Three of us?
00:00:35You, me, and my wife, of course.
00:00:37Your wife. But this is a date.
00:00:40My, oh my, you are absolutely stunning.
00:00:43What do you say we get together and have a baby before we get too old, shall we?
00:00:48God, I'd like to see you try.
00:00:49Good, because I always like to record.
00:00:51Excuse me, boss. It's time for your date. Should I leave this here, or...?
00:01:00Where is this from?
00:01:00Well, department store. Cheap as it gets.
00:01:02On the car?
00:01:03Once used.
00:01:04Excellent.
00:01:06Is there anything else you need?
00:01:07Just keep this quiet.
00:01:09Yes, boss. No one will ever find out that the chairman of Peak Climbers is going as a date as an ordinary urban driver.
00:01:15Hi, I'm Jerry.
00:01:23What's with the glasses, four eyes? Are you blind? Who the hell wants to be with a sick old man?
00:01:30Only 60% of your wages each month.
00:01:3430%.
00:01:34We'll cover daily expenses.
00:01:3630%.
00:01:37We'll go to the bank to cover my mortgage.
00:01:40Oh, how generous.
00:01:42You left me 40%.
00:01:43No, that 40% is going straight to my account.
00:01:49I'm tired of an hour.
00:01:50Plus 10 if you want overnight.
00:01:52Uh, I'm sorry.
00:01:54I'm actually looking for someone to come out.
00:01:56Half a million a month.
00:01:57Can you get yourself more?
00:02:02I think it's...
00:02:03Hi, I'm Jerry Smith.
00:02:21Chris, Chris Parker.
00:02:23Let's get married.
00:02:25That's your pitch?
00:02:26I'm a very straightforward man.
00:02:28Lucky you.
00:02:31That is exactly my time.
00:02:33Time of year when Christmas falls.
00:02:37Songs by the fire and stories in bed.
00:02:40Help on the shelf as the notes be said.
00:02:43No, no, no, no.
00:02:47I've got it.
00:02:53Mom, what are you doing here?
00:02:55It's always so good to see you two.
00:02:58How's work?
00:03:00Same boss.
00:03:01Still great.
00:03:02Wish I had more time off, though.
00:03:04And have you decided on a name for the baby?
00:03:08Yeah, actually.
00:03:09Um...
00:03:10It's Emma.
00:03:16You can't name her that.
00:03:19Emma's your sister's name.
00:03:20That's exactly why I like it.
00:03:22I know she's not around anymore,
00:03:25but I figured that she would appreciate
00:03:27that I named our baby daughter after her.
00:03:30No.
00:03:31That was your grandma's gift for her and her only.
00:03:35I mean, your father and sister have been gone for decades.
00:03:38Let's just let them stay in our memory
00:03:40and not try to replace...
00:03:42Mom!
00:03:43This is my house.
00:03:45I can't have you come in here
00:03:47and try to disrespect that.
00:03:49Sure.
00:03:50You'll get your respect
00:03:52when your daughter is old enough to talk, son.
00:03:55I can't imagine
00:03:56how Dad didn't get driven crazy by you.
00:04:01Don't you ever talk about me and your father like that.
00:04:05I'm a grown man.
00:04:06I have a family now.
00:04:09You can't just drop by and tell me what to do.
00:04:11You clearly need the help.
00:04:13Not from an overbearing,
00:04:15old, sad, crazy woman like you.
00:04:19Tom!
00:04:20That's too much.
00:04:23I'm sorry, Mom.
00:04:24I didn't mean to...
00:04:26So that's...
00:04:29what you think of me, Chris?
00:04:30It's not like that.
00:04:32Take care of yourself, sweetheart.
00:04:34Mom.
00:04:35Mom, where are you going?
00:04:36Anywhere but here.
00:04:37It's raining outside.
00:04:39Please, just...
00:04:39Oh, God damn it!
00:04:54You've got to be kidding me!
00:04:55Oh, God.
00:04:59I'm going to freeze out here.
00:05:07What do you want?
00:05:18Chris?
00:05:19It's me.
00:05:20What's wrong?
00:05:21Did someone upset you?
00:05:22Jerry!
00:05:24No, no, it's nothing.
00:05:26Doesn't sound like nothing.
00:05:28What if better?
00:05:29Are you outside?
00:05:30My shitty car broke down in the middle of the woods.
00:05:34What?
00:05:35In this weather?
00:05:35In the middle of December?
00:05:37I'm going to pick you up.
00:05:38No, no, no.
00:05:38It's fine.
00:05:39It's no reason for you to freeze out here, too.
00:05:41Where are you?
00:05:42It's more of Lincoln Road, I think.
00:05:46I'll be right there.
00:05:47Don't move.
00:05:47Go to Lincoln Road, now.
00:05:55Yeah, but how are you going to explain your identity?
00:05:58You know, what about me?
00:06:00An Uber driver's driver?
00:06:01Get out.
00:06:02I'll drive.
00:06:03Hey, baby.
00:06:17You need a ride?
00:06:21Oh, thank God.

00:07:17Your wish is my command.

00:13:46It's my treat.

00:13:50I'm flattered.
00:13:51But...
00:13:53This is different.
00:13:55What's the matter?
00:13:57Let's go take a closer look.
00:14:01Ma'am.
00:14:02I needed to deliver this to you in person.
00:14:05It is the most expensive item I've ever sold.
00:14:10You're very lucky.
00:14:13Merry Christmas.
00:14:14Thank you, sir.
00:14:15Is it the one you were looking for?
00:14:21Maybe.
00:14:22Are you alright?
00:14:27Breathe.
00:14:29Slowly.
00:14:34What happened?
00:14:35Is something wrong with it?
00:14:36Welcome back.
00:14:38This belonged to you?
00:14:39My late husband bought this for me many years ago.
00:14:45It's my most precious belonging.
00:14:49I thought I'd never see it again.
00:14:51Oh.
00:14:54I'm so sorry.
00:14:55Give me one minute.
00:14:57Yeah.
00:15:01Okay.
00:15:02Tom.
00:15:08Oh, Tom.
00:15:09Look, look, look.
00:15:10The album stock that your dad bought me 20 years ago.
00:15:12I thought I lost it.
00:15:13I got a call from my friend at the auction.
00:15:16$70,000 for this?
00:15:18Are you losing your mind?
00:15:19No, Tom.
00:15:23You promised me that you would never touch climbing gear again.
00:15:26Tom, this is different.
00:15:27I don't fucking care!
00:15:29Please don't say that.
00:15:30They're dead!
00:15:32Dad and Emma are fucking dead!
00:15:36Maybe if you wouldn't have fucking supported their stupid hobby,
00:15:41they'd still be around.
00:15:42It was an accident.
00:15:43You can't blame it all on me.
00:15:45Is that not enough?
00:15:47What, are you going to take a new family up there to that death hike?
00:15:50Or are you going to wait until my daughter's born and then do the same to her?
00:15:54That was never my intention.
00:15:55Please don't say that!
00:15:59Look at me.
00:16:00You are never welcome in my home again.
00:16:03And if you want to go die...
00:16:06Go die alone.
00:16:07No, Tom. Tom, wait!
00:16:08Wait!
00:16:17Chris!
00:16:18Chris!
00:16:20Chris!
00:16:21Chris!
00:16:23Chris!
00:16:25Chris!
00:16:26Chris, are you okay?
00:16:27What happened?
00:16:31It's fine.
00:16:32Just family quarrel.
00:16:34If this keeps happening, I'm going to need to have a little talk with your family.
00:16:39Let me see that here. Come here.
00:16:42It stings.
00:16:44How old's your daughter?
00:16:4622.
00:16:47Me too?
00:16:50Do you have any difficulties with her?
00:16:55I...
00:16:56I don't even know where to start.
00:17:01I'm so glad I have you.
00:17:04Me too.
00:17:06What do you say we forget about those damn kids?
00:17:10And go have a drink.
00:17:12How about that?
00:17:14Yeah, okay.
00:17:16I know a place.
00:17:18But you gotta have a good back.
00:17:20That is incredible!
00:17:37Everything alright?
00:17:39Yeah.
00:17:40Just...
00:17:41It feels like this isn't the first time I've been bowling.
00:17:44Have I bowled before?
00:17:46Um...
00:17:48I wouldn't know.
00:17:49Sometimes it's hard to recall memories.
00:17:53Early ones, especially.
00:17:56They'll just kind of fall apart.
00:17:59Have you gotten that checked out?
00:18:01Yeah.
00:18:02Doctor says I'm fine.
00:18:03It's just...
00:18:05I guess the old green matter is just seeing what it used to be.
00:18:08Yeah.
00:18:09Yeah.
00:18:10Yeah.
00:18:11Chris, did you find yourself a pro?
00:18:12Great question.
00:18:13Jerry, this is my buddy Antoine.
00:18:14He owns this place.
00:18:16Antoine, this is Jerry.
00:18:17My husband.
00:18:18Your husband.
00:18:19Your husband.
00:18:20Wow.
00:18:21That's interesting.
00:18:22I beg your pardon?
00:18:23I beg your pardon?
00:18:24I don't mean to be rude, but I haven't heard Chris say the word husband in like, what, two decades?
00:18:28Antoine?
00:18:29He was also in my high school gang.
00:18:30And if you can believe it, his mouth was even bigger back then.
00:18:31Well, welcome to my place.
00:18:32And there's only one rule here.
00:18:33Chris makes all the rules.
00:18:34Shut up, Antoine.
00:18:35You only say that when you're in trouble.
00:18:36And those two drinks on the house?
00:18:37No.
00:18:38No.
00:18:39No.
00:18:40No.
00:18:41No.
00:18:42No.
00:18:43No.

00:29:20tell me everything
00:29:29well john doesn't drink much his friends suggested that maybe a little liquor might help him loosen up
00:29:35but keyword a little john got so drunk and he drove me home
00:29:43and crashed the car straight into my dad's garden oh dear i can only imagine how jerry reacted to that
00:29:52well whatever you're imagining it's way way worse i mean like my dad's actually a really like respectful
00:30:02man you know he i mean he didn't even say anything about the car or the garden he just he even invited john to come in and sober up
00:30:12but john was like
00:30:14wasted i mean like blind drunk so he stumbles in and knocks over a candle and sets the curtains on fire
00:30:25fire oh dear that is yeah it's a nightmare it's what it is but you know like john's not like that
00:30:35you know john is gentle and and smart and caring and yeah he's not a drunk okay it was just one mistake
00:30:43one time and my dad won't let it go gotcha girl it was just a misunderstanding thanks

00:38:26It seems like a shooting is happening on West Maple Street.
00:38:29C&M live stream.
00:38:31These are on the scene, working to secure the area,
00:38:33and ensure public...

00:39:25Please.
00:39:26My daughter's about to give birth,
00:39:27and please just let us go.
00:39:28We won't do anything.

00:39:30Please, please, please.
00:39:31You can have whatever you want.
00:39:32Just don't hurt us.
00:39:35Leave your phone, wallet, and purse.
00:39:37And get out.
00:39:38Don't tell anybody what happened here.
00:39:39Yes.
00:39:40Thank you so much.
00:39:41Okay.
00:39:42Of course.
00:39:51Did you call the cops?
00:39:53Did you call the cops?
00:39:54What?
00:39:55No, no, no, no.
00:39:56Of course not.
00:39:57I didn't.
00:39:58Why would I?
00:40:05Why are they here?
00:40:06How could they know?
00:40:07Um, I don't know.
00:40:08Maybe there's an alarm?
00:40:11Let me see your phone.
00:40:12Please.
00:40:13Please.
00:40:14It's not too late to surrender.
00:40:15Okay?
00:40:16You haven't done anything bad yet.
00:40:18My son, he's a really good lawyer.
00:40:21He could defend you.
00:40:23Bitch, I should kill you!
00:40:25They're gonna lock me up because of you!
00:40:28Say goodbye to your daughter and the baby.
00:40:30No!
00:40:31Don't you fucking dare!
00:40:33If you shoot us, there will be an arrest.
00:40:37There won't be a trial.
00:40:39The police will just kill you where you are!
00:40:41Well, if you didn't call the fucking cops, they'd be halfway out of town by now!
00:40:44It isn't too late to change your mind.
00:40:48Think of your family, right?
00:40:50What would they do if they knew you were a murderer?
00:40:52They'd be heartbroken if they knew their son was a murderer!
00:40:55Keep my family out of your mouth!
00:40:57I won't let those fucking cops catch me!
00:40:59I won't be in jail for the next 20 years and end up alone like you!
00:41:02Do not compare your cursed life with mine, okay?
00:41:07I'm not a... a failure.
00:41:10I'm not alone and I'm not a certified felon like you are!
00:41:16Oh God, if my husband was alive, he would shoot you right on the spot!
00:41:40Oh, thank God! I thought I was gonna lose you!
00:42:08The world goes on.
00:42:11I sang my song.
00:42:14I won't miss.
00:42:15To get my own true love for you to see.
00:42:21Oh, come on.
00:42:22It's not the first time I've been in danger.
00:42:27Jerry.
00:42:29Jerry Smith.
00:42:31Is that your name?
00:42:33Yes.
00:42:35Since I was born.
00:42:36Do you remember?
00:42:41Lisa!
00:42:43Oh God, Lisa!
00:42:45Please wake up, Lisa!
00:42:55This reminds me of the day I had you 30 years ago.
00:42:58God, that hurt.
00:42:59Mom, this isn't helping.
00:43:01But we made it, didn't we?
00:43:03And so will Lisa.
00:43:04Hey, everything's gonna be alright.
00:43:08Doctor, is that Lisa and my baby?
00:43:10Mother and daughter are both safe and healthy.
00:43:11And at 12.05 December 25th, I'd say it's a Christmas miracle.
00:43:26However, Lisa did lose a lot of blood and she's very weak. So one of you needs to come with me.
00:43:32You go first.
00:43:33Yeah, I'm gonna check on Jerry.
00:43:34Mom, there's something that I need to tell you about Mr. Smith.
00:43:35You know him?
00:43:36Yeah, actually.
00:43:37I know.
00:43:38Are you coming or not?
00:43:39Oh, sorry.
00:43:40Go.
00:43:41We'll talk later.
00:43:42Okay.
00:43:43Jerry.
00:43:44Jerry.
00:43:45Why does he look so different?
00:43:48Like my old Jerry?
00:43:49What?
00:43:50I don't know.
00:43:51Okay.
00:43:52I don't know.
00:43:53I don't know.
00:43:54There's something that I need to tell you about Mr. Smith.
00:43:56You know him?
00:43:57Yeah, actually.
00:43:58I know.
00:43:59Are you coming or not?
00:44:00Oh, sorry.
00:44:01Go.
00:44:02We'll talk later.
00:44:03Okay.
00:44:04Jerry.
00:44:05Jerry.
00:44:06Why does he look so different?
00:44:09different. Like my old Jerry. Jerry. I'm awake. What time is it? Five past midnight. Gosh,
00:44:23that late? One second, I need to make a call. I kept somebody waiting all day. Go ahead.
00:44:31Merry Christmas, my hero. Don't be late for the party tomorrow. We have a lot to talk
00:44:43about. Hand to God. I'll be there on time.
00:45:01One more kiss. Slowly this time. You nut.
00:45:31Oh, Lisa, come in.
00:45:50I cannot believe you're here. Why did you stay in the hospital? I wasn't going to miss your
00:45:55Christmas party and neither was your new granddaughter.
00:46:01What's her name? Chris. We named her after you, Mom.
00:46:10I am honored. Dr. Ken, Lisa needs some rest, so can she take your room?
00:46:17Of course. We'll wake you up for dinner. That'd be great. Thanks.
00:46:28Mom.
00:46:31I need to tell you something. It's about Mr. Smith.
00:46:37What about him? Don't tell me you don't like him.
00:46:41No, I think he's great, really.
00:46:44Have a seat.
00:46:48Hey, Helen. How are you? Good, good. Are you coming?
00:46:52Merry Christmas, Dad.
00:47:02Helen is not coming. Her husband heard his back last night. He won't even be able to move today.
00:47:07Well, I'm glad that Aunt Helen and Uncle Greg are still in love.
00:47:11Yeah, have you ever seen that couple not be together?
00:47:13Back to the point, Mom.
00:47:15Oh, that thought.
00:47:34Merry Christmas.
00:47:35Merry Christmas, buddy. Ooh, look at all this. Thank you.
00:47:39Watch out. Be careful now. It's my special mac and cheese.
00:47:42Come on. All right. Yeah, you look nice.
00:47:45Thanks. Coming through.
00:47:48Ah, Tom. My man.
00:47:52Haven't seen you around the bowling alley lately.
00:47:54I know. We really missed you. But me and Lisa have been a little busy.
00:48:00Ah, a little too busy for his uncle, Antoine.
00:48:03We just had a baby.
00:48:05What?
00:48:06Yeah.
00:48:06Oh, my God. Congratulations.
00:48:11Mom? Mom, can you hang on a second?
00:48:13Um, remember Antoine's mac and cheese? Amazing.
00:48:17I'm sure it's great, but Mom, please. There's something that I really need to talk to.
00:48:22If you could just give me a moment to tell you.
00:48:24Mom is just a little busy right now. Why don't you, um, go watch the football with Antoine?
00:48:28But Mom...
00:48:29Hi, Chris.
00:48:39Hey, Chris. Dad, I... I mean, Jerry, uh, dropped us off. He's parking.
00:48:44Oh, come in. Come in.
00:48:51Uh, homemade lame chops. I made them myself.
00:48:54I didn't know you're such a chef. It's my favorite.
00:48:57Uh, Dad. I really appreciate you standing up for us the other night at the bar.
00:49:01Well, you can't expect a father to like someone who stole his daughter's heart.
00:49:06And you're lucky he only yelled at you.
00:49:07Ha, ha, ha.
00:49:09Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:49:39May I come in, darling?
00:49:43Is this... Tom Cruise?
00:49:46Because, uh, I could expect Jerry.
00:49:48Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:49:55Part of the family now.
00:49:58Don't let Emma down.
00:49:59Dad!
00:50:01I wouldn't dream of it.
00:50:03Follow me, boys and girls.
00:50:09After your sweater, I like it, bud.
00:50:16Jerry, my old friend.
00:50:19How are you?
00:50:20Very well.
00:50:21Now that we're finally all together.
00:50:24This is Antoine, my best friend.
00:50:26Hello.
00:50:28And this is Tom, my son.
00:50:30Uh, I believe some of you already know him.
00:50:35Great to see you again.
00:50:37I'm so glad that we're truly a family now.
00:50:42Nice to meet you again, Mr. Smith.
00:50:44I'm afraid there's many things that you have not told my mother.
00:50:50Tom.
00:50:51Mom.
00:50:53Did you know that your new husband is the richest man in the state?
00:50:57Hang on.
00:50:59I didn't mean to...
00:51:00Tom.
00:51:02Come with me.
00:51:20Could we just have one day of peace and quiet?
00:51:25One day when you are trying to play some game?
00:51:30I just found out yesterday.
00:51:32I had to say something.
00:51:33Mom, I...
00:51:34I know you.
00:51:36Okay?
00:51:37You wouldn't be with him if you knew about his past.
00:51:39You would think he's way out of our league.
00:51:41Did you know...
00:51:43He's supposed to be having dinner with the president.
00:51:47The president of the United States.
00:51:49I mean, the press is already wondering why he's missing and where he is.
00:51:54If they find out that you two are married...
00:51:57You're going to have journalists sticking their noses in every aspect of your life.
00:52:02And they're going to take away your freedom.
00:52:05Wow, you really are a lawyer.
00:52:09Mom.
00:52:11Mom, this isn't a joke.
00:52:13Do you really want to be a fixture in the tabloids?
00:52:15Because you will.
00:52:16Tom.
00:52:18What?
00:52:18I mean, beyond everything I just said, have you thought about it?
00:52:22Have you thought about why he's keeping this from you?
00:52:25Why he's hiding it?
00:52:27That man doesn't trust you.
00:52:29I do trust your mom.
00:52:30I trust her with all my heart.
00:52:39It's just that everything happened too fast.
00:52:41I couldn't find the right time.
00:52:44Bullshit.
00:52:45Tell her, right now, everything.
00:52:48Mr. Overdriver.
00:52:49Mr. Smith, I've looked for you for many years and I trust you as a boss and a father.
00:52:54But I can't sit by and let you lie to my mother.
00:52:58I swear.
00:52:59I just...
00:53:00Tom.
00:53:00I appreciate you telling me you should have waited one day, just one more day so I can have my Christmas.
00:53:09What's the use of marriage if nothing's ever shared?
00:53:21You said that before, didn't you?
00:53:23Chris, I'm really sorry.
00:53:25I...
00:53:26I...
00:53:26I'm just...
00:53:28I never meant for any of this to happen.
00:53:31I was trying to find the best moment.
00:53:33I need some time.
00:53:37And some space.
00:53:43God.
00:53:45This is bad.
00:53:47Tom shouldn't have brought that up at Christmas.
00:53:50I mean, if someone was lying to my mom, I'd probably do the same thing.
00:53:54Mom, not the time.
00:54:00I'm sorry, guys.
00:54:01I ruined Christmas.
00:54:12Dad, I'm sorry.
00:54:13I...
00:54:15I really screwed up.
00:54:16Where did that photo come from?
00:54:26It's a family photo.
00:54:28From when I was younger.
00:54:32That's...
00:54:32Your family?
00:54:36That's...
00:54:37Your father...
00:54:38Your mother...
00:54:39Your...
00:54:40Sister...
00:54:42And yourself?
00:54:43I don't understand.
00:54:44What's the big deal?
00:54:47I...
00:54:47Don't push me away.
00:55:00Don't push me away.
00:55:02Jesus.
00:55:02I've searched for 20 years to find someone like you.
00:55:09You make me feel young.
00:55:11And alive.
00:55:15You have to understand.
00:55:18Ever since the tragedy, I've only lived for my daughter.
00:55:22She's the only thing I have left.
00:55:24And now she has John.
00:55:28My job is done.
00:55:31She's safe.
00:55:33And loved.
00:55:35But I have no one.
00:55:38No one except you.
00:55:43Please.
00:55:44Chris.
00:55:46Please.
00:55:47I don't understand.
00:55:52Maybe it's time you tell me about the tragedy.
00:55:55What happened 20 years ago?
00:55:58Where did you get this?
00:56:01This is the last thing that my mother left me.
00:56:07She died in a landslide 20 years ago.
00:56:10A landslide where?
00:56:11A maple.
00:56:12The...
00:56:13The barren mountain.
00:56:15Forty miles north of...
00:56:16Anchorage, Alaska?
00:56:19Yeah.
00:56:20Yeah, that's exactly where Dad said that she...
00:56:22Dad?
00:56:24Mr. Smith?
00:56:27No, no.
00:56:28There's...
00:56:28There's no way.
00:56:29He looks completely different.
00:56:30The...
00:56:30The landslide nearly crushed his skull.
00:56:35The doctors had to give him a whole new face.
00:56:41Jesus Christ.
00:56:44He's my dad?
00:56:4620 years ago, my family went up to a barren mountain.
00:57:02God.
00:57:04Like today's not crazy enough.
00:57:06Jesus.
00:57:08I'm gonna kill whoever is at the door.
00:57:10Mom.
00:57:11Mom, wait a second.
00:57:12Do you remember our family photo on the wall?
00:57:15Yeah, of course.
00:57:16What about it?
00:57:16What am I?
00:57:17Oh my gosh, just look at this.
00:57:20Do you recognize that photo?
00:57:23Why is this photo water damaged?
00:57:28Wait.
00:57:29Is that...
00:57:30It can't be.
00:57:36What do you want?
00:57:50This is Christmas.
00:57:51What is your problem?
00:57:53This is your Christmas gift.
00:57:55What are you talking about?
00:57:56You?
00:58:04How did you get away?
00:58:09You ruined my entire life.
00:58:11And this is what you get.
00:58:12Jerry!
00:58:16Oh my God.
00:58:20Mom, are you okay?
00:58:22The police are on their way, asshole.
00:58:26This is all her fault.
00:58:27I'm not the one who tried to rob a bowling alley.
00:58:29I'm gonna kill all y'all.
00:58:32Get some rope.
00:58:33I'm gonna fuck you all.
00:58:37Shut the fuck up.
00:58:41Oh my God, John.
00:58:42You're wrecking me all.
00:58:43I think that was enough craziness for one day.
00:58:49Let's get this asshole out of here.
00:58:51Just wait here.
00:58:52John and I got this.
00:58:54We got bigger things on play.
00:58:55It's okay.
00:58:56Let's go.
00:59:05Well, looks like someone made the naughty list this year.
00:59:16What happened to you?
00:59:19Why do you look so different?
00:59:21Why didn't you come back to me?
00:59:25What's this all about?
00:59:30Is she?
00:59:33Is she?
00:59:34Yes, ma?
00:59:36Yes, ma?
00:59:38That's mom.
00:59:40And this is Tom.
00:59:44That's why I didn't recognize you before.
00:59:47Tom.
00:59:50And my son.
00:59:54Tell me this is real.
00:59:56Please.
00:59:57God.
00:59:57Are you my wife?
00:59:58Are you my wife?
01:00:02The Chris that I married?
01:00:05Did you hike in Anchorage 20 years ago?
01:00:09Mount Maple?
01:00:10I guess so.
01:00:11I guess so.
01:00:16My memory.
01:00:18The accident.
01:00:19I can't remember who I was.
01:00:24My backpack.
01:00:25My ID.
01:00:27All gone.
01:00:30The only thing we have left.
01:00:32And her.
01:00:40My God.
01:00:42How did you survive?
01:00:45A hunter.
01:00:47Found us in the woods.
01:00:49Injured and cold, but alive.
01:00:51I thought.
01:00:55I thought you.
01:00:58And Tom.
01:01:00I thought you were dead.
01:01:04I thought you were dead too.
01:01:16Mom and Dad.
01:01:17Mom and Dad.
01:01:21Tom.
01:01:22Get in here.
01:01:23Group hug.
01:01:23Come on.
01:01:30You know.
01:01:32I dreamed of this day.
01:01:35A million times over.
01:01:37But.
01:01:38I never thought it would actually happen for real.
01:01:43It's a Christmas miracle.
01:01:49I could be more than I need.
01:01:50Would you like some wine?
01:01:52Yeah.
01:01:54Can't start.
01:01:55Can you give me some?
01:02:03Darling.
01:02:07Are you staying tonight?
01:02:09Of course.
01:02:11I've waited over 20 years for this.
01:02:13Thank you all for joining our family here today.
01:02:27It's been a long road.
01:02:30Strange journey.
01:02:33But there is no place I'd rather be.
01:02:35After 20 years apart.
01:02:39Fate has given us the best Christmas gift of all.
01:02:43Each other.
01:02:45Merry Christmas.
01:02:46Merry Christmas.
01:02:48Yes.
