00:00:00Let's see, I'm Chris Parker, I'm 50, I spend most of my free time hiking and collecting
00:00:08climbing equipment.
00:00:09I have a son and a granddaughter on the way.
00:00:1450?
00:00:15Girl, are you that damn old?
00:00:17You said you're 52 on the dating app and you're definitely 60.
00:00:21Boys will be boys, even in their 60s.
00:00:26Start with London, then Paris, and then Rome, and then all the way to Beijing, the three
00:00:30of us.
00:00:31Three of us?
00:00:32You, me, and my wife of course.
00:00:34Your wife?
00:00:35This is a date.
00:00:36My, oh my, you are absolutely stunning.
00:00:37What do you say we get together and have a baby before we get too old, shall we?
00:00:43God, I'd like to see you try.
00:00:46Good, because I always like to record.
00:00:52Excuse me, boss.
00:00:54It's time for your date.
00:00:55Should I leave this here, or?
00:00:56Where is this from?
00:00:57Well, a department store, cheap as it gets.
00:00:58And the car?
00:00:59Once used.
00:01:00Excellent.
00:01:01Is there anything else you need?
00:01:02Just keep this quiet.
00:01:03Yes, boss.
00:01:04No one will ever find out that the chairman of Peak Climbers is going on a date as an
00:01:05ordinary Uber driver.
00:01:06Hi, I'm Jerry.
00:01:07What's with the glasses, four-eyes?
00:01:08Are you blind?
00:01:09Who the hell wants to be with a sick old man?
00:01:10I'm not blind.
00:01:11I'm not blind.
00:01:12I'm not blind.
00:01:13I'm not blind.
00:01:14I'm not blind.
00:01:15I'm not blind.
00:01:16I'm not blind.
00:01:17I'm not blind.
00:01:18I'm not blind.
00:01:19I'm not blind.
00:01:20I'm not blind.
00:01:21I'm not blind.
00:01:22Are you blind?
00:01:23Who the hell wants to be with a sick old man?
00:01:24I'll need 60% of your wages each month.
00:01:2530% will cover daily expenses.
00:01:2630% will go to the bank to cover my mortgage.
00:01:27Oh, how generous!
00:01:28You'll have me 40%!
00:01:29No.
00:01:30That 40% is going straight to my account.
00:01:31I'm down in an hour.
00:01:32We'll stand if you want overnight.
00:01:33Uh, I'm sorry.
00:01:34I'm actually looking for someone to match.
00:01:35I'm sorry.
00:01:36I'm actually looking for someone to match.
00:01:37I'm sorry.
00:01:38I'm sorry.
00:01:39I'm sorry.
00:01:40I'm sorry.
00:01:41I'm sorry.
00:01:42I'm sorry.
00:01:43I'm sorry.
00:01:44I'm sorry.
00:01:45I'm sorry.
00:01:46I'm sorry.
00:01:47I'm sorry.
00:01:48I'm sorry.
00:01:49I'm sorry.
00:01:50I'm sorry.
00:01:51I'm sorry.
00:01:52I'm sorry.
00:01:53I'm sorry.
00:01:54I'm actually looking for someone to match.
00:01:55Half a million a month.
00:01:56Can you get a soap bubble?
00:01:57I think it's a…
00:02:15Hi.
00:02:16I'm Jerry Smith.
00:02:18Chris.
00:02:19Chris Parker.
00:02:20Let's get married.
00:02:23That's your pitch?
00:02:24I'm a very straightforward man.
00:02:26Lucky you.
00:02:29That is exactly my type.
00:02:44Oh no, no, no. I've got it.
00:02:50Mom! What are you doing here?
00:02:53It's always so good to see you two.
00:02:56How's work?
00:02:58Same boss. Still great.
00:03:00Wish I had more time off, though.
00:03:03And have you decided on a name for the baby?
00:03:06Yeah, actually.
00:03:12It's Emma.
00:03:14You can't name her that.
00:03:16Emma's your sister's name.
00:03:18That's exactly why I like it.
00:03:20I know she's not around anymore,
00:03:23but I figured that she would appreciate that I named our baby daughter after her.
00:03:28No.
00:03:29That was your grandma's gift for her and her only.
00:03:33I mean, your father and sister have been gone for decades.
00:03:36Let's just let them stay in our memory and not try to replace...
00:03:40Mom!
00:03:41This is my house.
00:03:43I can't have you come in here and try to disrespect that.
00:03:47Sure, you'll get your respect when your daughter is old enough to talk, son.
00:03:53I can't imagine how Dad didn't get driven crazy by you.
00:03:59Don't you ever talk about me and your father like that.
00:04:03I'm a grown man.
00:04:05I have a family now.
00:04:07You can't just drop by and tell me what to do.
00:04:09You clearly need the help.
00:04:11Not from an overbearing, old, sad, crazy woman like you.
00:04:18Tom!
00:04:19That's too much.
00:04:23I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't mean to...
00:04:26So that's what you think of me?
00:04:29Chris, it's not like that.
00:04:32Take care of yourself, sweetheart.
00:04:34Mom, where are you going?
00:04:35Anywhere but here.
00:04:37It's raining outside. Please, just...
00:04:48Oh!
00:04:51God damn it! You've got to be kidding me!
00:04:56God, I'm going to freeze out here.
00:05:14What do you want?
00:05:16What do you want?
00:05:17Chris? It's me.
00:05:19What's wrong? Did someone upset you?
00:05:21Jerry! No, no, it's nothing.
00:05:25It's not a shout like nothing. What is that?
00:05:28Are you outside?
00:05:29My shitty car broke down in the middle of the woods.
00:05:33What? In this weather? In the middle of December?
00:05:36I'm going to pick you up.
00:05:37No, no, no, it's fine. It's no reason for you to freeze out here, too.
00:05:40Where are you?
00:05:41Somewhere off Lincoln Road, I think.
00:05:45I'll be right there. Don't move.
00:05:53Go to Lincoln Road, now.
00:05:55Yeah, but how are you going to explain your identity?
00:05:58What about me, an Uber driver's driver?
00:06:01Get out. I'll drive.
00:06:15Hey, baby. You need a ride?
00:06:21Oh, thank God.
00:06:23Hold on. Let me get the door for you.
00:06:45It takes it out of me
00:06:49That I have to watch as we break imperfectly
00:07:00Where to, milady?
00:07:01Driver makes the call.
00:07:03But somewhere warm and frozen.
00:07:08My cabin is just down the road.
00:07:12We could stay there tonight.
00:07:15Have a little honeymoon?
00:07:17Your wish is my command.
00:07:20All we need to do is take a warm shower, drink a shot of whiskey, and pray for a good night's sleep.
00:07:27Well, that's not all we need to do.
00:07:45Chris?
00:07:46You didn't have to.
00:07:48Oh, I could help.
00:07:50I'm almost done.
00:07:52Have a seat.
00:07:53I can...
00:07:54Uh-uh. Uh-uh.
00:07:55I'll see you.
00:07:56Okay. Okay.
00:08:04I'm sorry.
00:08:05It's okay.
00:08:06It's okay.
00:08:07It's okay.
00:08:08It's okay.
00:08:09It's okay.
00:08:10It's okay.
00:08:11It's okay.
00:08:12It's okay.
00:08:38What are you looking at?
00:08:42Nothing.
00:08:47Have a seat.
00:08:51You're incredible.
00:08:59This is the best breakfast I've had in years.
00:09:01Oh, I'm flattered.
00:09:04You mentioned us going to the auction today. Is that still happening?
00:09:08Yes.
00:09:09And actually, we should start getting ready soon.
00:09:14Do I look okay?
00:09:16Like a dream.
00:09:18But, I do have a small present for you.
00:09:26Jerry!
00:09:29This is beautiful.
00:09:35You're so sweet.
00:09:54Oh, no, honey.
00:09:55Oh, do you think I'm overdressed?
00:09:57Not at all.
00:09:58This is who you are.
00:09:59Don't be shy.
00:10:02Wow, wow, wow.
00:10:04Look at this old mummy.
00:10:06Somebody bought her new bandages.
00:10:11Wow, wow, wow.
00:10:13Look at this old mummy.
00:10:15Somebody bought her new bandages.
00:10:17Get lost, hag.
00:10:19Looks like someone forgot her dentures today.
00:10:21Don't be jealous, darling.
00:10:23They're new and permanent.
00:10:25Jealous?
00:10:26Don't make me laugh.
00:10:28You disgusting old bitch.
00:10:37What is this? Your new boy toy?
00:10:41Old and sick.
00:10:43Great taste.
00:10:45Come on, honey.
00:10:47What's her problem?
00:10:48Mia?
00:10:49She's been like that since high school.
00:10:51Always trying to be superior to everyone.
00:10:54But always falling short.
00:10:59Ladies and gentlemen,
00:11:00I would like to introduce to you
00:11:02Falling short.
00:11:05Ladies and gentlemen,
00:11:06thank you so much for joining us.
00:11:08Welcome to this year's annual Christmas charity auction.

00:11:57It's mine.

00:12:02Twice.
00:12:03No, you don't deserve it.
00:12:04$15.

00:12:14$20,000 from the lovely lady in the corner.
00:12:18$20,000 going once.
00:12:19What are you waiting for?
00:12:21Don't tell me you're waiting for your ex-husband to save you again.
00:12:24Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot.
00:12:27He's dead.
00:12:29Fine.
00:12:35It's over.
00:12:36Mia is going to be the next captain.

00:12:58Going twice.
00:12:59$30,000.
00:13:02$30,000.
00:13:04From the gentleman in the center of the room.
00:13:08This is none of your business.
00:13:10It is.
00:13:11She is not alone.
00:13:13Oh, gross.
00:13:1432.
00:13:15Thank you, 32.
00:13:16Do I hear 35?
00:13:1870,000.
00:13:19$70,000.
00:13:20Are you serious?
00:13:22You can't just say any random number.
00:13:24You actually have to be able to pay for it.
00:13:27I can do this all day.
00:13:28Doing one.
00:13:30Fair warning, last call.
00:13:32Wow.
00:13:36$70,000.
00:13:38Sold.
00:13:39$70,000 from the Alvin Fox to the lovely couple in the center of the room.
00:13:44Thank you very much.
00:13:45Everybody, please.
00:13:46A round of applause for the lovely couple.
00:13:49This means so much to me.
00:13:50It's so important.
00:13:51Oh, I'll pay you back later.
00:13:52It's my treat.
00:13:53I can't have my wife going home empty handed.
00:13:56I'm flattered.
00:13:57But this is different.
00:14:01What's the matter?
00:14:02Let's go take a closer look.
00:14:08Ma'am, I needed to deliver this to you in person.
00:14:12It is the most expensive item I've ever sold.
00:14:16You're very lucky.
00:14:20Merry Christmas.
00:14:21Thank you, sir.
00:14:27Is it the one you were looking for?
00:14:29Baby, are you all right?
00:14:35Breathe.
00:14:37Slowly.
00:14:42What happened?
00:14:43Is something wrong with it?
00:14:45Welcome back.
00:14:47This belonged to you?
00:14:49My late husband bought this for me many years ago.
00:14:53It's my most precious belonging.
00:14:57I thought I'd never see it again.
00:14:59Oh.
00:15:02I'm so sorry.
00:15:03Give me one minute.
00:15:05Yeah.
00:15:09Okay.
00:15:16Tom, look, look, look.
00:15:18This is the stuff and stock that your dad bought me 20 years ago.
00:15:20I thought I lost it.
00:15:21I got a call from my friend at the auction.
00:15:23$70,000 for this?
00:15:26Are you losing your mind?
00:15:27No, Tom.
00:15:31You promised me that you would never touch climbing gear again.
00:15:34Tom, this is different.
00:15:35I don't fucking care.
00:15:37Please don't say that.
00:15:38They're dead.
00:15:40Dad and Emma are fucking dead.
00:15:44Maybe if you wouldn't have fucking supported their stupid hobby,
00:15:49they'd still be around.
00:15:50It was an accident.
00:15:51You can't blame it all on me.
00:15:53Is that not enough?
00:15:55What, are you going to take a new family up there to that death hike?
00:15:58Or are you going to wait until my daughter's born and then do the same to her?
00:16:02It was never my intention.
00:16:03Please don't say that.
00:16:07Look at me.
00:16:08You are never welcome in my home again.
00:16:11If you want to go die, go die alone.
00:16:15No, Tom.
00:16:16Tom, wait!
00:16:25Chris!
00:16:26Chris!
00:16:29Chris!
00:16:30Chris!
00:16:33Chris!
00:16:34Chris!
00:16:35Chris, are you okay?
00:16:36What happened?
00:16:37What happened?
00:16:40It's fine.
00:16:41Just family quarrel.
00:16:44If this keeps happening, I'm going to need to have a little talk with your family.
00:16:48Let me see that.
00:16:49Here, come here.
00:16:51It stings.
00:16:54How old is your daughter?
00:16:56Twenty-two.
00:17:00Ever have any difficulties with her?
00:17:03I don't even know where to start.
00:17:10I'm so glad I have you.
00:17:13Me too.
00:17:15What do you say we forget about those damn kids and go have a drink?
00:17:21How about that?
00:17:23Yeah, okay.
00:17:25I know a place.
00:17:27But you got to have a good back.
00:17:33That is incredible.
00:17:42Everything alright?
00:17:44Yeah, just feels like this isn't the first time I've been bowling.
00:17:50Have I bowled before?
00:17:53I wouldn't know.
00:17:55Sometimes it's hard to recall.
00:17:58I wouldn't know.
00:17:59Sometimes it's hard to recall memories.
00:18:03Early ones, especially.
00:18:06They all just kind of fall apart.
00:18:09Have you gotten it checked out?
00:18:11Yeah, doctor says I'm fine.
00:18:13It's just...
00:18:15I guess the old gray matter just ain't what it used to be.
00:18:20Anyway.
00:18:28Yeah!
00:18:31Chris, did you find yourself a pro?
00:18:33Great question!
00:18:35Jerry, this is my buddy Antoine. He owns this place.
00:18:38Antoine, this is Jerry, my husband.
00:18:41Your husband? Wow, that's interesting.
00:18:44I beg your pardon?
00:18:47I don't mean to be rude, but I haven't heard Chris say the word husband in like, what, two decades?
00:18:54Antoine!
00:18:56He was also in my high school gang.
00:18:58And if you can believe it, his mouth was even bigger back then.
00:19:01Well, welcome to my place.
00:19:03And there's only one rule here. Chris makes all the rules.
00:19:07Shut up, Antoine.
00:19:09You only say that when you're in trouble.
00:19:11And those two drinks on the house? Something must be really wrong.
00:19:14Well, did you guys ever hear of this real estate conglomerate called G5?
00:19:20They want to buy this place.
00:19:21So, take the money, go to Florida, meet some babes.
00:19:25We get a new bowling alley. Win-win.
00:19:28I thought about it, but they're only offering half the going rate.
00:19:33Oh, hell with them then.
00:19:35Sorry, Antoine, you're stuck with us.
00:19:37Yeah, but unless they do something to force me...
00:19:46Who's the boss?
00:19:51Who's the boss?
00:19:53That would be me.
00:19:55Whoa, can I help you?
00:19:57I'm Griffin, boss of the Griffins.
00:20:00Open your register. We're taking your money.
00:20:04That's not gonna happen.
00:20:05Do or die, fat ass!
00:20:07Put that thing down.
00:20:09Shut your mouth, grandma. Mind your shit, or I'll blow him away.
00:20:13Robbery is one thing. Murder, you can't come back from that.
00:20:17We talking business, old bitch.
00:20:19And I'm Jesus Christ of this fucking neighborhood.
00:20:22When did Jesus pack a .45?
00:20:27I'll shoot you, piece of shit. Nobody tells me what to do.
00:20:30Young man.
00:20:31Don't talk to me like a fucking teenager.
00:20:33This isn't the first time somebody's tried to rob this guy.
00:20:36Look, he may look soft, but he's not a coward.
00:20:39No means no.
00:20:41Shut the fuck up.
00:20:42Wait, let's talk business, okay?
00:20:45Bullying an old man, that's not how a leader acts, is it?
00:20:49What are you talking about?
00:20:51Move on. Take your business elsewhere.
00:20:54Bullshit. What the fuck are you talking about?
00:20:56Griffin, the world doesn't work the way you think it does.
00:20:59It's much more complicated.
00:21:03I know a lot of people who don't.
00:21:05I know a lot of people who don't.
00:21:07I know a lot of people who don't.
00:21:10I know Vlad.
00:21:12Vladimir Markov?
00:21:14You know who he is?
00:21:15I doubt you know who he is.
00:21:17He runs the other side of town.
00:21:19Like I said, the world's a complicated place.
00:21:22Now what would happen if Vladimir found out you're messing with some of his friends?
00:21:28How would that turn out for you?
00:21:34But don't worry, I got a better idea.
00:21:37One that doesn't end with you at the bottom of a river.
00:21:40What is it?
00:21:41The block between Mulberry Street and Lincoln has a ton of trust fund babies, right?
00:21:47Deep pockets and lots of addictions.
00:21:50You know what to do.
00:21:52Thank you, sir. Maybe we have your name.
00:21:54Fuck off.
00:21:56Now!
00:22:03I think that'll keep busy for a while.
00:22:06Busy for a while?
00:22:07So that's your secret? You're one of them?
00:22:09One of those bastards? No.
00:22:12Well, you just told them to go sell drugs. Are you crazy?
00:22:16Hang on. Wait, wait, wait. Don't be such a judgment so quickly.
00:22:19Do you know who lives on that block?
00:22:21Devin Jones and Alec Shaw.
00:22:24The mayor and the chief of police.
00:22:28Two of the most conservative guys in town.
00:22:30They'll just love this dude slinging drugs outside his window.
00:22:33Wait, you just did that?
00:22:35Jesus Christ, you really are a bad boy.
00:22:39And Officer Alex happens to be one of my old friends, so...
00:22:43So you better tell them these crazies are heading towards their neighborhood.
00:22:53Chris, I like this guy. Where'd you find him?
00:22:57At a random coffee shop. It's a long story.
00:23:00I'll bet it's a good one.
00:23:01With me? Always.
00:23:04You know, I'm just... I'm just happy you found another good man.
00:23:08You know, um...
00:23:11He kind of reminds me of Jerry, your late husband.
00:23:25He doesn't look anything like you.
00:23:27No, not his looks. You know, his vibe. How he carries himself.
00:23:32But a Jerry never really died in that accident.
00:23:39But a Jerry never really died in that accident.
00:23:43No!
00:23:48Jerry.
00:23:51Jerry is dead.
00:23:53What?
00:23:55If he was alive, he would have come looking for me.
00:24:00Absolutely.
00:24:06Hey.
00:24:09You okay?
00:24:12I'm fine.
00:24:22You... you look different.
00:24:24I do?
00:24:26It must be all the excitement.
00:24:29Well, I am planning to have a Christmas dinner at my place.
00:24:34I want you to come meet all my family. Would you come?
00:24:37Of course.
00:24:39It would be my honor.
00:24:54Mom.
00:24:58Please, come in. Please.
00:25:01Tom, I just want to quickly say...
00:25:04Mom, I'm so sorry about the other night.
00:25:08It's just, Tom's been working on a heart case and, you know, we have a daughter on the way and it's just been a lot of pressure.
00:25:14I'm really sorry what I said.
00:25:16It's okay.
00:25:18I made a lot of mistakes.
00:25:20And some of them...
00:25:23Some of them I can't fix.
00:25:26But...
00:25:27I didn't come here to talk about the past.
00:25:30I came to tell you...
00:25:32I'm... I'm married.
00:25:34You're married?
00:25:36Ah, that's wonderful, Mom.
00:25:38He's the sweetest man. I know you're gonna love him.
00:25:40And I want you to meet him at Christmas dinner.
00:25:42We would love that.
00:25:43Dad would be so happy.
00:25:46I mean, he was always getting me out of trouble and...
00:25:48I'm sure he's out there looking down with a smile.
00:25:52Thinking someone has your back.
00:25:54Yeah, yeah.
00:25:56Of course.
00:25:58What is it? Something wrong?
00:26:00No, it's just...
00:26:02Tom, after all these years, if you ever saw your father again, do you think you'd recognize him?
00:26:10Yeah, of course I would.
00:26:13He's in that picture right there behind you. I mean, I look at him every day.
00:26:20I hope so.
00:26:22Anyway, it's getting late and I have to go.
00:26:25But I will see you guys at Christmas dinner?
00:26:28Yeah, of course.
00:26:33Looking forward to it.
00:26:34Yeah, me too.
00:26:42Wine for the lady?
00:26:44This place is cute.
00:26:46Is it new?
00:26:47Just opened. My daughter recommended it.
00:26:52Well, she has great taste.
00:26:54You must have raised her well.
00:26:56For the last 20 years, it's been her and I against the world.
00:27:01She's my angel.
00:27:03Can I tell you something?
00:27:04Of course.
00:27:06Sometimes I wish I had a girl instead of a boy.
00:27:09Boys don't think.
00:27:11At least not with their brains.
00:27:15Come on, John. Finish it.
00:27:21Speak of the devil.
00:27:24Emma?
00:27:28Dad?
00:27:33Emma.
00:27:35John.
00:27:36Dad, do not look at him like that.
00:27:38Look at me.
00:27:40Go.
00:27:43Emma, I told you, stay away from this alcoholic.
00:27:46Can you just leave us alone?
00:27:48Okay, because my life and what I do with it is none of your business.
00:27:54You're free to date whoever you want, but not him.
00:27:57Remember what happened last time?
00:27:58John nearly burned our house down.
00:28:00That's my life and my business.
00:28:02Not to mention that he nearly got you killed.
00:28:04You know, where do you get off?
00:28:05Okay, because maybe if you knew the first thing about love,
00:28:11Mom wouldn't have ditched us 20 years ago.
00:28:1420 years ago?
00:28:18You don't know what you're talking about.
00:28:19I don't know what I'm talking about?
00:28:22If Mom didn't ditch us, then why is the only thing she left this old photo?
00:28:32Did you teach her this shit?
00:28:34Get out!
00:28:35I don't ever want to fucking see you again!
00:28:37Get out!
00:28:42If he leaves, then I'm going with him.
00:28:47Hold on, honey.
00:28:48Let's talk.
00:28:53And who the hell are you?
00:28:55Boys, give us some space.
00:28:58You didn't mean to do that, did you?
00:29:00Of course not!
00:29:02But how can I?
00:29:04You know, he doesn't trust me.
00:29:06Be strong.
00:29:08When's that last time your father mentioned?
00:29:14So my dad invited John over for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:29:19And he said,
00:29:20So my dad invited John over for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:29:27And John's a shy boy.
00:29:29He didn't really know what to do.
00:29:32So his friends started giving him some advice.
00:29:37And that's when everything went wrong.
00:29:43Tell me everything.
00:29:44Well, John doesn't drink much.
00:29:51His friends suggested that maybe a little liquor might help him loosen up.
00:29:56But key word, a little.
00:29:58John got so drunk.
00:30:01And he drove me home.
00:30:04And he crashed the car straight into my dad's car.
00:30:09Oh dear, I can only imagine how Jerry reacted to that.
00:30:13Well, whatever you're imagining is way, way worse.
00:30:18I mean, my dad's actually a really respectful man.
00:30:23You know?
00:30:24I mean, he didn't even say anything about the car or the garden.
00:30:28He even invited John to come in and sober up.
00:30:33But John was wasted.
00:30:36I mean, blind drunk.
00:30:39So he stumbles in and knocks over a candle and sets the curtains on fire.
00:30:47Oh dear, that's...
00:30:48Yeah, it's a nightmare is what it is.
00:30:51But you know, like, John's not like that.
00:30:55You know, John is gentle and smart and caring and...
00:31:01Yeah, but he's not a drunk, okay?
00:31:03It was just one mistake, one time, and my dad won't let it go.
00:31:06Gotcha, girl.
00:31:07It was just a misunderstanding.
00:31:09Thanks.
00:31:11I still don't understand, you know.
00:31:13Who are you?
00:31:14How do you know my dad?
00:31:19Baby, you look a bit drunk.
00:31:21You want a ride home?
00:31:23Go away, this is none of your business.
00:31:27Who the fuck are you, granny?
00:31:29Go home and fuck yourself.
00:31:30Don't make me repeat myself.
00:31:33Oh my god, are you alright?
00:31:35You're coming with me, huh?
00:31:37No.
00:31:41I'm sorry, ma'am, I should have jumped in sooner.
00:31:43I like you, kid.
00:31:45Get her home safe.
00:31:46I'll take care of her old man.
00:31:47Thank you very much.
00:31:49Emma, can you hear me?
00:31:50You ready to go home?
00:31:51Yeah.
00:31:52Let's go.
00:31:53Oh, Jerry and I are hosting a Christmas dinner.
00:31:55I would love for you to come.
00:31:56Do not be late.
00:32:01Oh, what a cute boy.
00:32:05Now, where is my husband?
00:32:14Hey.
00:32:16There's the old bitch.
00:32:22Hey.
00:32:25There's the old bitch.
00:32:26Oh, you never learn.
00:32:27Go home, man.
00:32:28Your boy toy beat me at the bar.
00:32:30And now you're gonna pay.
00:32:32Put that thing down.
00:32:33Fuck you, bitch.
00:32:34Give me your money.
00:32:35Take off your coat.
00:32:43Where did you get that thing?
00:32:45I keep it in my trunk.
00:32:46You know, to fix the car.
00:32:47I almost forgot you're a driver.
00:32:50Oh, what a hunk.
00:32:57Alright, let's get out of here.
00:32:59Come on.
00:33:04Fuck.
00:33:11You really know how to get yourself into trouble, don't you?
00:33:13Maybe I should start carrying a gun in my trunk.
00:33:16Shut up.
00:33:20Are John and Emma gonna be okay?
00:33:25John said you agreed to let him take Emma home.
00:33:28He's really not a bad kid.
00:33:29I think you should give him a second chance.
00:33:31You know he almost got Emma killed?
00:33:33Like a monster.
00:33:34I think that's just an excuse.
00:33:37You would have a problem with John no matter what.
00:33:39He could be a doctor, a lawyer, a senator.
00:33:42You'd still hate him.
00:33:44Because what you really can't stand
00:33:46is somebody taking your daughter away.
00:33:49You're probably right.
00:33:50Probably.
00:33:54You are.
00:33:57If John deserves my daughter,
00:33:59then I'll dance at their wedding.
00:34:04Can you still dance, old man?
00:34:08Let me show you.
00:34:25Paul, cancel all my plans for Christmas.
00:34:28All of your appointments.
00:34:30That's right.
00:34:31Boss, you're invited to the White House
00:34:33for dinner on Christmas.
00:34:34Something more important's come up.
00:34:36Tell me.
00:34:37What's more important than the president?
00:34:42Tom!
00:34:43You're early.
00:34:44I mean, today's meeting's too important to be late to,
00:34:46but I am curious.
00:34:48What's more important than the president?
00:34:50My wife and I are hosting a Christmas party.
00:34:52You should come.
00:34:53Oh, thanks, Mr. Smith,
00:34:54but my mother would be furious
00:34:57if I missed her Christmas party.
00:34:59That's all right.
00:35:00Say hi to your mother for me, okay?
00:35:02And tell her,
00:35:03I wish I had a son like you.
00:35:05Really?
00:35:08I wish the melons were ripe.
00:35:10That would be nice on the table.
00:35:12Ooh!
00:35:13This one's ready, I think.
00:35:14Yeah.
00:35:25Ooh!
00:35:26This one's ready, I think.
00:35:27Yeah.
00:35:29Mmm.
00:35:30Do you think we have enough for Christmas now?
00:35:31Yeah.
00:35:32Thank you so much for coming with me, sweetheart.
00:35:33It's the least I could do after the other day.
00:35:35Tom really went overboard.
00:35:37If I let every silly thing that boy said bother me,
00:35:41I would have been dead a hundred years ago.
00:35:44Let's see what else.
00:35:47Ah!
00:35:50Fill the caps now!
00:35:51Do it!
00:35:52Everybody down!
00:35:53I went for your hands!
00:35:56What should we do?
00:35:58The title transfer from Party A shall not...
00:36:11Mr. Smith, are you all right?
00:36:12I'm fine, I'm fine.
00:36:15I just had a weird feeling about something.
00:36:18Like a bad feeling?
00:36:20Not sure.
00:36:24What should we do?
00:36:25We're pretty close to the entrance.
00:36:26Just follow me when he walks away.
00:36:32Chris, I can't run.
00:36:34Don't move.
00:36:43911, what's the emergency, please?
00:36:47Yeah, there's a robber.
00:36:48The grocery store on West Maple.
00:36:51There's one guy with a gun.
00:36:54We need an ambulance.
00:37:00Help is on the way.
00:37:02I'm fine.
00:37:06Boss, Mr. Ford is waiting for you in the conference room.
00:37:10Right.
00:37:24Come on, come on, come on.
00:37:25Pick up.
00:37:26Damn it!
00:37:32Please, pick up.
00:37:33Come on!
00:37:34Damn it!
00:37:41Pick up!
00:37:42Come on!
00:37:43Damn!
00:37:50Pick up!
00:37:51Come on!
00:37:52Pick up!
00:37:53God damn it, please!
00:37:55Who's there?
00:37:58Come out!
00:37:59Don't make me ask again.
00:38:01My team has done an appraisal for the property.
00:38:03It looks nice.
00:38:04And I think...
00:38:11Mr. Smith, are you okay?
00:38:14Just feels a little bit dry in here.
00:38:18Turn down the A.C. a little.
00:38:20Yeah, of course.
00:38:23Why don't we all just take a break?
00:38:25I could use the fresh air too.
00:38:35Oh my God.
00:38:37Everything alright, Tom?
00:38:39I think something's wrong.
00:38:40My mom just called and she never calls me this late.
00:38:43And let alone on a weekday.
00:38:45My wife's with her.
00:38:46And...
00:38:48Calm down.
00:38:49I'm sure everything's fine.
00:38:50Everything's fine.
00:38:51Paul, can you check the news?
00:38:53Sure.
00:38:55Now.
00:38:56Well, it seems like a shooting is happening on West Maple Street.
00:38:59CMM live streaming.
00:39:15Are you okay?
00:39:16I think my arm just broke.
00:39:19Okay.
00:39:23Get up.
00:39:25Don't shoot.
00:39:29That bastard.
00:39:31Oh my God.
00:39:32Mr. Smith, I need to get there as fast as I can.
00:39:35I'm going with you.
00:39:37Get the car ready.
00:39:38Yes, sir.
00:39:40This country needs gun control.
00:39:42Let me get my weapon.
00:39:46Put the gun down.
00:39:47Get on your knees.
00:39:48Now.
00:39:49Okay.
00:39:52What do you want?
00:39:53You want money?
00:39:54You can have it.
00:39:56Please.
00:39:57My daughter's about to give birth.
00:39:59Please just let us go.
00:40:00We won't do anything.
00:40:01I promise.
00:40:02Please, please, please.
00:40:03You can have whatever you want.
00:40:04Just don't hurt us.
00:40:06Give me your phone, wallet, and purse.
00:40:08And get out.
00:40:09Don't tell anybody what happened here.
00:40:10Yes.
00:40:11Thank you so much.
00:40:12Okay.
00:40:13Of course.
00:40:17Call the police.
00:40:22Did you call the cops?
00:40:25Did you call the cops?
00:40:27No, no, no, no.
00:40:28Of course not.
00:40:29I didn't.
00:40:30Why would I?
00:40:37Why are they here?
00:40:38How could they know?
00:40:39Um, I don't know.
00:40:41Maybe there's an alarm?
00:40:44Let me see your phone.
00:40:47Please.
00:40:48It's not too late to surrender.
00:40:49Okay?
00:40:50You haven't done anything bad yet.
00:40:52My son, he's a really good lawyer.
00:40:54He could defend you.
00:40:56Bitch, I should kill you!
00:40:59They're gonna lock me up because of you!
00:41:01Say goodbye to your daughter and the baby.
00:41:03No!
00:41:05Don't you fucking dare!
00:41:08If you shoot us,
00:41:10there will be an arrest.
00:41:11There won't be a trial.
00:41:12They will...
00:41:13Police will just kill you where you are!
00:41:15Well, if you didn't call the fucking cops,
00:41:16we'd be halfway out of town by now!
00:41:18It isn't too late to change your mind.
00:41:21Think of your family.
00:41:22Right?
00:41:24What would they do if they knew you were a murderer?
00:41:26They'd be heartbroken if they knew their son was a murderer.
00:41:29Keep my family out of your mouth!
00:41:31I won't let those fucking cops catch me!
00:41:33I won't be in jail for the next 20 years
00:41:34and end up alone like you!
00:41:36Do not compare your cursed life with mine.
00:41:39Okay?
00:41:41I'm not a...
00:41:43a failure.
00:41:44I'm not alone.
00:41:45And I'm not a...
00:41:46a certified talent like you are.
00:41:49Oh God, if my husband was alive,
00:41:52he would shoot you right on the spot!
00:42:15I love you.
00:42:37Oh, thank God.
00:42:39I thought I was gonna lose you.
00:42:46I won't miss.
00:42:54Oh, come on.
00:42:55It's not the first time I've been in danger.
00:43:00Jerry.
00:43:02Jerry Smith.
00:43:04Is that your name?
00:43:06Yes.
00:43:08Since I was born.
00:43:10Do you remember?
00:43:11Do you remember?
00:43:15Lisa!
00:43:17Oh God, Lisa!
00:43:19Please wake up, Lisa!
00:43:29This reminds me of the day I had you 30 years ago.
00:43:33God, that hurt.
00:43:35Mom, this isn't helping.
00:43:37But we made it, didn't we?
00:43:39And so will Lisa.
00:43:41Hey, everything's gonna be alright.
00:43:49Doctor.
00:43:51How's Lisa and my baby?
00:43:53Mother and daughter are both safe and healthy.
00:43:56And at 1205 December 25th,
00:44:00I'd say it's a Christmas miracle.
00:44:03However, Lisa did lose a lot of blood and she's very weak.
00:44:06So, one of you needs to come with me.
00:44:11You go first.
00:44:13Yeah, I'm gonna check on Jerry.
00:44:16Mom, there's something that I need to tell you about Mr. Smith.
00:44:21You know him?
00:44:22Yeah, actually.
00:44:24I know him.
00:44:25Are you coming or not?
00:44:26Oh, sorry.
00:44:27Go, we'll talk later.
00:44:37Jerry.
00:44:41Jerry.
00:44:43Why does he look so different?
00:44:46Like my old Jerry.
00:44:49Jerry.
00:44:51I'm awake.
00:44:54What time is it?
00:44:55Five past midnight.
00:44:57Gosh, that late?
00:45:00One second, I need to make a call.
00:45:03I kept somebody waiting all day.
00:45:05Go ahead.
00:45:11Merry Christmas, my hero.
00:45:14Don't be late for the party tomorrow.
00:45:17We have a lot to talk about.
00:45:24Hey, Negai.
00:45:26I'll be there on time.
00:45:39One more kiss.
00:45:41Slowly this time.
00:45:43You nut.
00:46:11Tom.
00:46:17Tom, Lisa, come in.
00:46:27I cannot believe you're here.
00:46:29Why didn't you stay in the hospital?
00:46:31I wasn't gonna miss your Christmas party.
00:46:33And neither was your new granddaughter.
00:46:39What's her name?
00:46:41Chris.
00:46:43We named her after you, Mom.
00:46:47I am honored.
00:46:50Dr. Ken, Lisa needs some rest, so can she take your room?
00:46:54Of course. We'll wake you up for dinner.
00:46:56That'd be great. Thanks.
00:47:05Mom.
00:47:07I need to tell you something.
00:47:09It's about Mr. Smith.
00:47:13What about him?
00:47:15Don't tell me you don't like him.
00:47:17No, I think he's great, really.
00:47:23Have a seat.
00:47:25Hey, Helen, how are you?
00:47:27Good, good.
00:47:29Are you coming?
00:47:35Merry Christmas, Dad.
00:47:36Helen is not coming.
00:47:38Her husband hurt his back last night.
00:47:40He won't even be able to move today.
00:47:42Well, I'm glad that Aunt Helen and Uncle Greg are still in love.
00:47:46Yeah, have you ever seen that couple not be together?
00:47:48Wait, back to the point.
00:47:50Mom.
00:47:52Oh, that thought.
00:48:07Ah.
00:48:13Merry Christmas.
00:48:15Merry Christmas, buddy.
00:48:17Ooh, look at all this. Thank you.
00:48:19Watch out. Be careful now. It's my special mac and cheese.
00:48:22Come on.
00:48:24Yeah, you look nice.
00:48:26Thanks. Coming through.
00:48:28Ah, Tom, my man.
00:48:31Haven't seen you around the bowling alley lately.
00:48:33I know. We really missed you.
00:48:36But me and Lisa have been busy.
00:48:39Ah, a little too busy for his uncle, Antoine.
00:48:42We just had a baby.
00:48:44What?
00:48:45Yeah.
00:48:46Oh, my God. Congratulations.
00:48:49Mom, Mom, can you hang on a second?
00:48:52Remember Antoine's mac and cheese? Amazing.
00:48:56I'm sure it's great, but Mom, please.
00:48:58There's something that I really need to talk to you.
00:49:00Can you just give me a moment to tell you?
00:49:01Mom is just a little busy right now.
00:49:03Why don't you go watch some football with Antoine?
00:49:06But Mom.
00:49:17Hi, Chris.
00:49:19Dad, I mean, Jerry dropped us off. He's parking.
00:49:23Oh, come in. Come in.
00:49:25Homemade lentils. I made them myself.
00:49:28I didn't know you were such a chef. It's my favorite.
00:49:32I really appreciate you standing up for us the other night at the bar.
00:49:36Well, you can't expect a father to like someone who stole his daughter's heart.
00:49:40And you're lucky he only yelled at you.
00:49:42Well, you can't expect a father to like someone who stole his daughter's heart.
00:49:46And you're lucky he only yelled at you.
00:50:12May I come in, darling?
00:50:14Is this Tom Cruise?
00:50:17Because I've been expecting Jerry.
00:50:27You're part of the family now.
00:50:29Don't let Emma down.
00:50:31Dad!
00:50:33Dad!
00:50:35Dad!
00:50:37Dad!
00:50:39Dad!
00:50:41Dad!
00:50:43I wouldn't dream of it.
00:50:45Follow me, boys and girls.
00:50:53I think your sweater really looks good, bud.
00:50:57Jerry! My old friend.
00:51:00How are you?
00:51:02Very well. Now that we're finally all together.
00:51:05This is Antoine, my best friend.
00:51:08Hello.
00:51:09And this is Tom, my son.
00:51:12I believe some of you already know him.
00:51:16Great to see you again.
00:51:18I'm so glad that we're truly a family now.
00:51:23Nice to meet you again, Mr. Smith.
00:51:26I'm afraid there's many things that you have not told my mother.
00:51:31Tom.
00:51:33Mom.
00:51:35Did you know that your new husband is the richest man in the state?
00:51:39Hang on.
00:51:41I didn't mean to...
00:51:43Tom, come with me.
00:52:03Could we just have one day of peace and quiet?
00:52:07One day.
00:52:09When you are trying to play some game.
00:52:12I just found out yesterday.
00:52:14I had to say something.
00:52:16Mom, I know you.
00:52:19You wouldn't be with him if you knew about his past.
00:52:22You would think he's way out of our league.
00:52:24Did you know?
00:52:26He's supposed to be having dinner with the President.
00:52:29The President of the United States.
00:52:32I mean, the press is already wondering why he's missing and where he is.
00:52:35If they find out that you two are married...
00:52:39You're going to have journalists sticking their noses in every aspect of your life.
00:52:44And they're going to take away your freedom.
00:52:46Wow, you really are a lawyer.
00:52:50Mom.
00:52:52Mom, this isn't a joke.
00:52:54Do you really want to be a fixture in the tabloids? Because you will.
00:52:58Tom.
00:53:00What? I mean, beyond everything I just said, have you thought about it?
00:53:03Have you thought about why he's keeping this from you?
00:53:06Why he's hiding it?
00:53:08That man doesn't trust you.
00:53:10I do trust your mom.
00:53:18I trust her with all my heart.
00:53:21It's just that everything happened too fast.
00:53:24I couldn't find the right time.
00:53:27Bullshit.
00:53:29Tell her, right now, everything.
00:53:30Everything, Mr. Overdriver?
00:53:33Mr. Smith, I've worked for you for many years and I trust you as a boss and a father,
00:53:38but I can't sit by and let you lie to my mother.
00:53:41I swear, I just...
00:53:43Tom.
00:53:45I appreciate you telling me.
00:53:48You should have waited one day, just one more day, so I could have my Christmas.
00:54:00What's the use of marriage if nothing's ever shared?
00:54:05You said that before, didn't you?
00:54:07Grace, I'm really sorry.
00:54:09I...
00:54:11I'm just...
00:54:13I never meant for any of this to happen.
00:54:15I was trying to find the best moment.
00:54:18I need some time.
00:54:21And some space.
00:54:23God.
00:54:25This is bad.
00:54:27Tom shouldn't have brought that up at Christmas.
00:54:30I mean, if someone was lying to my mom, I'd probably do the same thing.
00:54:34My mom, not this time.
00:54:40I'm sorry, guys. I ruined Christmas.
00:54:47I'm sorry.
00:54:49I'm sorry.
00:54:51I'm sorry.
00:54:57Dad, I'm sorry. I...
00:55:00I really screwed up.
00:55:07Where did that photo come from?
00:55:11It's a family photo.
00:55:13From when I was younger.
00:55:16That's...
00:55:18your family?
00:55:20That's...
00:55:22your father,
00:55:24your mother,
00:55:26your sister,
00:55:28and yourself?
00:55:30I don't understand. What's the big deal?
00:55:46Don't push me away.
00:55:48Jesus.
00:55:51I've searched for 20 years to find someone like you.
00:55:55You make me feel young,
00:55:57and alive.
00:56:02You have to understand,
00:56:04ever since the tragedy,
00:56:06I've only lived for my daughter.
00:56:09She's the only thing I have left.
00:56:13Now she has John.
00:56:15My job is done.
00:56:18She's safe.
00:56:20And loved.
00:56:22But I have no one.
00:56:25No one except you.
00:56:29Please.
00:56:31Chris.
00:56:33Please.
00:56:35I don't understand.
00:56:39Maybe it's time you tell me about the tragedy.
00:56:42What happened 20 years ago?
00:56:45Where did you get this?
00:56:48This is the last thing that my mother left me.
00:56:53She died in a landslide 20 years ago.
00:56:56A landslide where?
00:56:58Maple.
00:57:00The Barren Mountain?
00:57:0240 miles north of Anchorage, Alaska?
00:57:05Yeah.
00:57:07Yeah, that's exactly where Dad said that she...
00:57:09Dad?
00:57:11Mr. Smith?
00:57:14No, no, there's no way.
00:57:15He looks completely different.
00:57:17The landslide nearly crushed his skull.
00:57:21The doctors had to give him a whole new face.
00:57:27Jesus Christ.
00:57:30He's my dad?
00:57:32Yeah.
00:57:4320 years ago,
00:57:45my family went up to a barren mountain.
00:57:50God.
00:57:52Today's not crazy enough.
00:57:54Jesus.
00:57:56I'm gonna kill whoever is at the door.
00:57:58Mom.
00:57:59Mom, wait a second.
00:58:01Do you remember our family photo on the wall?
00:58:03Yeah, of course. What about it?
00:58:04Where am I?
00:58:05Oh my gosh, just look at this.
00:58:08Do you recognize that photo?
00:58:11Why is this photo water damaged?
00:58:15Wait.
00:58:17Is that...
00:58:23Oh, it can't be.
00:58:35What do you want?
00:58:39This is Christmas. What is your problem?
00:58:42This is your Christmas gift.
00:58:43What are you talking about?
00:58:50You?
00:58:52How did you get away?
00:58:57You ruined my entire life, and this is what you get?
00:59:00Jerry!
00:59:04Oh my God.
00:59:09Mom, are you okay?
00:59:10Mom, are you okay?
00:59:13The police are on their way, asshole.
00:59:15This is all her fault.
00:59:17I'm not going to try to rob a bowling alley.
00:59:19I'm gonna kill all y'all.
00:59:22Get some rope.
00:59:24I'm gonna fuck you all.
00:59:27Shut the fuck up.
00:59:31Oh my God, John, you're my hero.
00:59:36I think that was enough craziness for one day.
00:59:39Let's get this asshole out of here.
00:59:41Just wait here.
00:59:43John and I got this.
00:59:45Bigger things are at play.
00:59:47Let's go.
00:59:55Well, looks like someone made the naughty list this year.
01:00:06What happened to you?
01:00:08Why do you look so different?
01:00:11Why didn't you come back to me?
01:00:15What's this all about?
01:00:20Is she...
01:00:24Is she...
01:00:26Yes, Pa.
01:00:28That's Mom.
01:00:31And this is Tom.
01:00:32It's Tom.
01:00:35I'm sorry I didn't recognize you before.
01:00:41You're my son.
01:00:44Tell me this is real.
01:00:46Please.
01:00:50Are you my wife?
01:00:53The Chris that I married?
01:00:56Did you hike Anchorage 20 years ago?
01:01:00Mount Maple?
01:01:03I guess so.
01:01:06My memory...
01:01:08The accident...
01:01:10I can't remember who I was.
01:01:14My backpack, my ID...
01:01:17All gone.
01:01:21The only thing we have left is...
01:01:27And her.
01:01:28And her.
01:01:32My God, how did you survive?
01:01:36A hunter found us in the woods.
01:01:40Injured and cold, but alive.
01:01:45I thought...
01:01:47I thought you...
01:01:49And Tom...
01:01:52I thought you were dead.
01:01:54I thought you were dead too.
01:02:06Mom and Dad!
01:02:11Son, get in here.
01:02:13Group hug, come on.
01:02:20Get up.
01:02:23I dreamed of this day...
01:02:26A million times over, but...
01:02:29I never thought it would actually happen for real.
01:02:34It's a Christmas miracle.
01:02:40Good morning.
01:02:42Would you like some breakfast?
01:02:45Can't start.
01:02:48Here, I'll give you some.
01:02:53Man, that's bad.
01:02:57Darling...
01:02:59Are you staying tonight?
01:03:01Of course.
01:03:03I've waited over 20 years for this.
01:03:12Thank you all for...
01:03:15Joining our family here today.
01:03:18It's been a long road.
01:03:21A strange journey.
01:03:24But there is no place I'd rather be.
01:03:27After 20 years apart...
01:03:30Fate has given us the best Christmas gift of all.
01:03:34Each other.
01:03:36Merry Christmas!
01:03:38Merry Christmas!
