Short filmTranscript
00:00:00You
00:00:30Do those trees look crooked to you? No, everything looks beautiful, Al. You always do such an amazing job.
00:00:43This is the last winter formal of our high school career.
00:00:46Everything needs to be perfect. Hey, I heard you got early acceptance at Stanford. That's incredible.
00:00:53It was it was a long shot, but it worked out.
00:00:57Have you heard back from any school, Sam?
00:01:01Yo, Principal Holt just busted the lovebirds.
00:01:06I think me and Katie got put on the naughty list. I couldn't help myself.
00:01:10Look what Jay just gave me. He said the Christmas tree is to remember tonight and the rest is for our future.
00:01:18Hey, is this dress too short? I think it's too short.
00:01:21No, I think your dress looks great, Sam. You sure? I promise. I need to find a mirror.
00:01:35Just ask him to dance already.
00:01:41He's smart and he's driven. Sounds like someone I know.
00:01:47We would be perfect together.
00:01:50But he just thinks of me as a friend and I wouldn't want to mess that up.
00:01:54Whatever. Don't tell me the winner of every academic award and president of every extracurricular activity lacks the confidence to ask someone to dance?
00:02:05Come on, babe.
00:02:12Abby Ferguson just waved at me. I'm gonna ask her to dance.
00:02:19Cool.
00:02:26All right, everyone, gather around, gather around. It's a very exciting time, I know. Come on.
00:02:33It's the announcement you've all been waiting for.
00:02:38The crowding of your 2007 Winter Royale!
00:02:45Go Bobcats!
00:02:48Sorry. Really, Devin? Sorry, sorry.
00:02:53Your shoes are really slippery. What are you wearing? It's festive, like me.
00:03:00Just please try and take this seriously. And without further ado, your class president, Al Camberland!
00:03:08And your inexplicable choice for class vice president, Devin Ryan.
00:03:16Thank you, Principal Holt. Class of 2007, you voted and the results are in.
00:03:22I just want to compliment Al and the decorating committee.
00:03:26I never made it to any of the meetings, but look how well that worked out for me.
00:03:31Let's not keep everybody hanging. And your first Winter Royale is Bryce McGuire!
00:03:39Am I right? Yeah! Let's not keep everybody hanging. And your first Winter Royale is...
00:03:50Bryce McGuire!
00:03:55What? Oh, my turn. Okay.
00:04:13Let's...
00:04:19This is really good glue.
00:04:21May I?
00:04:25Your next Winter Royale is...
00:04:31Al Camberland!
00:04:41Yeah, Al!
00:04:43What the hell?
00:04:51Congratulations. Thanks.
00:04:59Is it snowing?
00:05:01And you didn't think I helped with the decor.
00:05:13It's magical, right?
00:05:15I am so sorry.
00:05:43I'd say one of my greatest strengths is that I'm calm under pressure.
00:05:51Managing the data cloud storage division can be demanding,
00:05:55but I like to think I bring a sense of balance to the day-to-day operations.
00:05:59And I'm proud of the high standards we've been able to achieve in my 10 years here at ZIG.
00:06:07So, how does it feel to be on Wired Magazine's 35 Under 35 list?
00:06:11Is it cheesy to say it's a dream come true? Because it is.
00:06:15Just in time to show off at your 15-year high school reunion.
00:06:17So far, we have a 61% RSVP rate.
00:06:19That's insane.
00:06:21I know. It's good turnout.
00:06:23No, it's insane that you did the math on the RSVPs.
00:06:25The location is locked. The caterers just confirmed.
00:06:29And you triple-checked timing with the party vendor, yes?
00:06:31We're delivering everything Wednesday.
00:06:33Perfect.
00:06:35This must be the most well-planned reunion in the history of reunions.
00:06:37It better be.
00:06:39It's the worst reunion our class has ever had.
00:06:41Every event since our senior year winter formal was such a catastrophe,
00:06:45they nicknamed us the Cursed Class.
00:06:47Prom was ruined when the septic tank ruptured.
00:06:49Graduation was cut short by a bout of food poisoning.
00:06:53Wow.
00:06:55Our five-year reunion was a bust thanks to Hurricane Sandy.
00:06:57And our 10-year reunion was in the summer and literally three people RSVP'd.
00:07:01Which is why I moved this one to Christmas when everybody would be home for the holidays.
00:07:05This year, no excuses, no disasters.
00:07:09I'm gonna get it right.
00:07:11Another RSVP.
00:07:15Everything okay?
00:07:17It's just, there's this one person from my class who hasn't responded to the invite.
00:07:23And you hoped he would?
00:07:25Oh, I love unrequited high school love.
00:07:27I wouldn't go quite that far.
00:07:31I was valedictorian.
00:07:33He was salutatorian.
00:07:35It just would've made sense.
00:07:37Not the steamy romance I had in mind, but each their own.
00:07:41And according to his social media, he's newly single.
00:07:43You always do your research, don't you?
00:07:45Oh, your car will be here in 15 minutes.
00:07:49I charged all your devices, updated your calendar, and packed your food for your flight.
00:07:53Thank you. You are the best.
00:07:59Um, is there something else, Alma?
00:08:01It's just, some of the assistants have been talking.
00:08:03Is Zig in some kind of legal trouble?
00:08:07Those are just rumors.
00:08:09If there was something going on, Tom would tell me.
00:08:11Especially when we're this close to going public.
00:08:13Don't worry about it.
00:08:15Have a wonderful holiday break, and I'll see you in the new year.
00:08:17Okay. Thank you.
00:08:19This is Devin.
00:08:21Oh, absolutely.
00:08:23My team is loading the truck as we speak.
00:08:25I'll see you soon.
00:08:27Bye-bye.
00:08:33Dad?
00:08:35Dad?
00:08:37Dad?
00:08:39Dad?
00:08:41Dad?
00:08:43Dad?
00:08:45Dad?
00:08:47Dad?
00:08:49Daughter.
00:08:57Can I have your credit card for some in-app purchases?
00:08:59Nope.
00:09:01Uh, but you could tackle this pile of paperwork I asked you to file.
00:09:05Paper's so old school.
00:09:07Why don't you let me build you a digital database,
00:09:09and you can get rid of all these file cabinets.
00:09:11You can put it in the treadmill desk.
00:09:13First off, have you seen this warehouse?
00:09:15I get my steps in every single day.
00:09:17Thank you very much.
00:09:19Secondly, how did my daughter get to be such a tech genius?
00:09:21Digital native.
00:09:23Evolve or perish.
00:09:25Hey, so I have a walkthrough at the Hotel Grand,
00:09:27but then I was thinking pizza.
00:09:29Sound good?
00:09:31Pizza always sounds good.
00:09:33What's the event?
00:09:35It's my high school class reunion.
00:09:37Fifteen years.
00:09:39So it's an old people party.
00:09:41Excuse me. Fifteen years was not that long ago,
00:09:43and I was fun back then.
00:09:45Still am.
00:09:47If you say so.
00:09:49Plus, I'm not actually going to the reunion.
00:09:51I'm just going to be there for load in and load out.
00:09:53That is it.
00:09:55Why?
00:09:57Because the only reason people go to a reunion
00:09:59is to either show off
00:10:01or relive the past,
00:10:03and I'm not interested in either one of those things.
00:10:05Anyone I really want to catch up with,
00:10:07I can just look up online.
00:10:09Do you know how to do that?
00:10:11Hey!
00:10:17Don't forget,
00:10:19offers are due in by seven on Thursday.
00:10:21Thanks for coming. Merry Christmas.
00:10:27I think we need to work on
00:10:29the talking points for the kitchen.
00:10:31Did you mention the induction oven?
00:10:33After selling houses for ten years,
00:10:35I think I know how to talk up a kitchen.
00:10:37Fine. I know we're getting at least four offers anyway.
00:10:39We have to review the new housing development contracts.
00:10:41Just put it in my calendar.
00:10:43Our primary way
00:10:45of communicating these days.
00:10:47Don't start.
00:10:49And about tonight...
00:10:51Yeah, we should just
00:10:53pretend like everything's normal.
00:10:55Easier than answering questions, right?
00:10:57Okay.
00:10:59See you there.
00:11:09I love that they included
00:11:11everyone's yearbook pictures
00:11:13in the reunion invite email.
00:11:17Like you don't have any unfortunate photos
00:11:19of your high school self.
00:11:21I burned every single one.
00:11:23I have news.
00:11:25News or gossip.
00:11:27What's the difference?
00:11:29So, Stan heard from someone that the New York office
00:11:31is filling their field reporter position
00:11:33by Christmas,
00:11:35which means that by Friday,
00:11:37you'll know if you're a weird
00:11:39moving to New York.
00:11:41Indianapples, I love you, but Big Apple,
00:11:43I am ready.
00:11:45It's a long shot, though.
00:11:47So is winning a Tony,
00:11:49but Audra McDonald has six.
00:11:53Samantha.
00:11:55Sam.
00:11:57As your friend and forever hype person,
00:11:59I can't believe that after everything you've accomplished,
00:12:01you still doubt yourself.
00:12:03Because I'm not usually the one
00:12:05who gets the thing.
00:12:07I get close, or I'm in the running,
00:12:09but I don't take the gold.
00:12:11And you know sports metaphors don't work on me.
00:12:13I just
00:12:15want to feel seen.
00:12:17Didn't happen much in high school.
00:12:19Well,
00:12:23they can't miss you now.
00:12:35So we'll bake the cookies tomorrow for Winterfest,
00:12:37and then let's drive up to the Christmas Ranch
00:12:39to look at the lights.
00:12:41Oh, and Tommy and Michelle
00:12:43are hosting a night of caroling in their neighborhood.
00:12:45I know they'd love to see you
00:12:47and hear about all your success,
00:12:49even though I tell them about it all the time.
00:12:51Okay.
00:12:53I just love having my Noel home for a whole week.
00:12:55It's a perfect holiday.
00:12:57Mom.
00:12:59I know, I know. You go by Elle.
00:13:01I'll just never understand
00:13:03why you choose your given name.
00:13:05Everyone loves this time of year.
00:13:07Some more than others.
00:13:09Welcome home, sweetheart.
00:13:11Thanks, Dad.
00:13:13Going up, going up.
00:13:15Honey, look.
00:13:17I made space on our wall of achievement
00:13:19for the Wired article when it comes out.
00:13:21Oh, you didn't have to do that.
00:13:23Nonsense.
00:13:25We love to see you succeed,
00:13:27and when people come over, they can see everything.
00:13:29Oh, your father's stalking.
00:13:31He's stalking out some things.
00:13:33Actually, I have to swing by the hotel
00:13:35to do a walkthrough,
00:13:37and then I'm meeting up with the old gang
00:13:39at Bobby's bar tonight.
00:13:41Well, we'll find a time.
00:13:51Hi. You must be Fritz.
00:13:53And you must be 15 minutes late.
00:13:55I apologize.
00:13:57I had to borrow my dad's car, and he lost the keys.
00:13:59No problem at all.
00:14:01Waiting on clients is what we at the Hotel Grand do.
00:14:03Hey, so we also brought six ivory columns
00:14:05and then some just really nice
00:14:07holiday foliage that'll fit perfectly in the layout.
00:14:09Just in time to meet
00:14:11the meticulous mastermind behind this
00:14:13soiree.
00:14:15If you ever want a job in event planning,
00:14:17let me know. I'm looking for my replacement.
00:14:23Devin Ryan.
00:14:25Elle Chamberlain.
00:14:29I forgot.
00:14:31Live It Up is your parents' company.
00:14:33Yeah, it was.
00:14:35They retired. It's my company now.
00:14:37But I've been emailing with someone named Alma.
00:14:39My assistant.
00:14:41Ah. Wow.
00:14:43I haven't seen you since, um...
00:14:45Graduation?
00:14:47Uh, it wasn't graduation.
00:14:49I was surfing in Baja. I didn't see the point
00:14:51in wearing a robe and walking across the stage.
00:14:53Right.
00:14:55Ceremony was never your thing.
00:14:57Small world to bump into you like this.
00:14:59Not really.
00:15:01It's the job of the
00:15:03class president to plan the reunions.
00:15:05Wait, the job of
00:15:07high school class president lasts
00:15:09outside of high school?
00:15:11Is it like a
00:15:13lifelong position?
00:15:15You have to admit, that's kind of crazy.
00:15:17It's not crazy.
00:15:19It's how reunions work.
00:15:23Saved by the bell.
00:15:25It's about those
00:15:27custom blue silk tablecloths
00:15:29you specially requested to match your exact
00:15:31high school colors.
00:15:33Be back in a jiff.
00:15:39I noticed that you didn't RSVP.
00:15:41Yeah, reunions
00:15:43really aren't my thing either.
00:15:45Well, one less name tag you need to make.
00:15:47Um,
00:15:49but I appreciate the business.
00:15:51Is there
00:15:53somebody else I should be
00:15:55dealing with at the company?
00:15:57Why?
00:15:59It's just
00:16:01not to be rude,
00:16:03but I need this reunion to go smoothly.
00:16:05And the fact that the
00:16:07high school king of goofing off
00:16:09is in charge of setting up,
00:16:11it just makes me kind of nervous.
00:16:13How could I
00:16:15possibly consider that rude?
00:16:17Look, high school
00:16:19was a long time ago.
00:16:21This is Northern Connecticut's
00:16:23premier events company.
00:16:25You're in good hands.
00:16:27Sorry about that.
00:16:29I'm going to go tape off the stage
00:16:31so my guys know where to put everything.
00:16:37You two make a wonderful team.
00:16:47Katie!
00:16:49Oh, I missed you!
00:16:51I missed you!
00:16:53Let's immediately get you a drink
00:16:55and you can catch me up on your amazing life.
00:16:57My amazing life?
00:16:59You two have billboards all over town.
00:17:01I must have seen your face
00:17:03five times on the way home
00:17:05from the airport.
00:17:07You and Jay are killing it.
00:17:09So, where is he?
00:17:11Oh, finishing up some work, I'm sure.
00:17:13He'll be here in a minute.
00:17:15Ow!
00:17:19Hi!
00:17:21Well,
00:17:23the reunion fun can start finally.
00:17:25Fifteen years.
00:17:27And still our class president.
00:17:29And you guys are still
00:17:31the most epic love story
00:17:33to ever come out of Brookswood High.
00:17:37Married ten years.
00:17:39That is amazing.
00:17:41So, what are you guys doing to celebrate?
00:17:43We just signed a contract
00:17:45with a new developer,
00:17:47and we're working on it right now.
00:17:49But what about you?
00:17:51Are you running Silicon Valley yet?
00:17:53Not yet, but it's going well.
00:17:55I love my job,
00:17:57and Zig is a great place to work.
00:17:59Most likely to succeed out there succeeding.
00:18:01Right?
00:18:03I'm going to go see about getting us some drinks.
00:18:09So, how's the reunion coming together?
00:18:11Everything's coming together perfectly.
00:18:13Except today,
00:18:15we found out that our main vendor
00:18:17is none other than Devin Ryan.
00:18:19If you remember him,
00:18:21I mean, still as infuriating as ever.
00:18:23But the numbers are looking good.
00:18:25Cam still has an RSVP.
00:18:27Don't tell me you're still crushing on him
00:18:29after all these years.
00:18:31Of course, of course not.
00:18:33No, no, I mean, it would just be nice to,
00:18:35you know, see him and catch up.
00:18:37And maybe show off your big, cool job in tech?
00:18:39I mean, no.
00:18:41Maybe a little.
00:18:45Uh,
00:18:47I gotta grab this.
00:18:49But I'll be right back.
00:18:55Hey, Alma, what's up?
00:18:57Those rumors about Zig having legal issues?
00:18:59Well, those aren't rumors anymore.
00:19:01It's really bad, Elle.
00:19:03How bad are we talking?
00:19:05They're saying it's a federal investigation.
00:19:07As in the FBI.
00:19:09Have you heard from Tom yet?
00:19:11I cannot afford to lose this job.
00:19:13Elle?
00:19:17Cam?
00:19:23I thought that was you.
00:19:25Oh, wait, is that him?
00:19:27The guy that you were talking about?
00:19:29I'll call you back.
00:19:31Hi!
00:19:33Hi, did I interrupt a work call?
00:19:35I just work drama.
00:19:37It's probably nothing.
00:19:39How are you?
00:19:41I thought you were coming.
00:19:43I didn't think I was either, but then my schedule changed,
00:19:45so I thought, why not?
00:19:47Well, I'm glad you did.
00:19:49Should we go inside?
00:19:51Yeah.
00:19:53Okay.
00:19:57You know,
00:19:59they have machines that actually print your signature,
00:20:01so you don't have to do it by hand.
00:20:03Yeah, but all our customers and our friends
00:20:05appreciate a handwritten message.
00:20:07Besides, if I didn't make you do this,
00:20:09you might forget how to use a pen.
00:20:15I want to add something
00:20:17to my Christmas list.
00:20:19Skye, Christmas is only a few days away.
00:20:21It's a little late for that, honey.
00:20:23That's okay, because all you have to do
00:20:25is say yes.
00:20:27Yes to what?
00:20:29There's this coding and robotics camp this summer.
00:20:31It's really hard to get into,
00:20:33but I want to try.
00:20:35Okay.
00:20:37Carnegie Mellon.
00:20:39Pittsburgh?
00:20:41Pittsburgh's not that far.
00:20:43Tell you what, I'll send you all the info.
00:20:45The application is due before the end of the year.
00:20:47Four weeks is a long time.
00:20:49Aren't you a little young for that?
00:20:51No.
00:20:53Besides, four weeks without me
00:20:55means you're free to go do fun stuff, too.
00:20:57Jam with your band, break the yard,
00:20:59play poker.
00:21:01Break the yard?
00:21:03I'm 13.
00:21:05Please, Dad?
00:21:09Please, Dad and me.
00:21:11Send me the link.
00:21:13I'll consider it.
00:21:15Yes!
00:21:25Let's do this.
00:21:27High school, eat your heart out.
00:21:31Sam!
00:21:33You made it.
00:21:35I cannot believe how fabulous you look.
00:21:39Thanks.
00:21:41Comes with the job.
00:21:43And a brilliant stylist?
00:21:45This is James.
00:21:47I don't know what I would do without him.
00:21:49You'd still be wearing frosted lip gloss and culottes.
00:21:51Oh, I miss you guys.
00:21:53Ladies,
00:21:55it's lovely to meet you,
00:21:57but now I need some drinks.
00:21:59This round's on me.
00:22:02There she is.
00:22:04Our fearless leader.
00:22:06Are you having fun?
00:22:08Oh, yeah, it's great seeing everyone.
00:22:10In fact, it feels like serendipity
00:22:12reconnecting with you right now
00:22:14because I'm actually moving to the Bay Area
00:22:16after the holidays.
00:22:18Um, really?
00:22:24Wow, I mean,
00:22:26talk about timing.
00:22:28I'll be managing a senatorial campaign up there.
00:22:31It's the big leagues.
00:22:33I mean, that sounds incredible, Cam,
00:22:35but also challenging
00:22:37and stressful.
00:22:39I thrive on it.
00:22:41Bet we have that in common.
00:22:43You're the CTO of one of the hottest tech companies on the market.
00:22:45You're dynamo.
00:22:47Just like in high school.
00:22:49It'll be fun getting to know each other again.
00:22:53And my clients will be so impressed
00:22:55that I know you.
00:23:01Uh, hi, Tom.
00:23:03I know this is my third voicemail.
00:23:05I'm just starting to worry
00:23:07that I haven't heard back from you.
00:23:09If you could let me know
00:23:11that everything's okay,
00:23:13that would be great.
00:23:23May I just buy coffee, please?
00:23:25May I just buy coffee, please?
00:23:39I think this is yours.
00:23:43I wonder if M and N
00:23:45are around here somewhere.
00:23:47Huh?
00:23:49If you're L,
00:23:51I'm looking for M and N.
00:23:53If...
00:23:55That's a bad joke.
00:23:57Uh, I haven't had my coffee yet, obviously.
00:23:59Since you're here,
00:24:01can we talk Santa hats?
00:24:03What about them?
00:24:05I wanted to add Santa hats so we could take a class photo
00:24:07with everyone wearing one.
00:24:09That wasn't part of the original order.
00:24:11I know. I had the idea this morning.
00:24:13But if you can't make that work, you can say so.
00:24:15You're boring black coffee.
00:24:17Oh, thank you.
00:24:20Oh, my gosh!
00:24:22You're L. Chamberlain.
00:24:24Dad, I didn't know you knew anyone famous.
00:24:26Dad?
00:24:28Famous?
00:24:30L gave a TED Talk about coding from the female perspective.
00:24:32It was awesome.
00:24:34Uh...
00:24:36Well, thank you.
00:24:38Can we rewind to the part
00:24:40about you having a daughter?
00:24:42This is Skyler,
00:24:44my 13-going-on-50-year-old
00:24:46who apparently watches TED Talks.
00:24:49L and I went to high school together.
00:24:51I'm a coder, too.
00:24:53App design.
00:24:55Nice. What software do you use?
00:24:57Appory. But I also build my own.
00:24:59That is very impressive.
00:25:01I'm applying for the summer coding program
00:25:03at Carnegie Mellon.
00:25:05Could I use you as a reference?
00:25:07Skyler.
00:25:09I'd be happy to be a reference.
00:25:11It's a great program.
00:25:13I was actually a speaker there last summer.
00:25:15Of course you were.
00:25:17Yes. Thank you.
00:25:19I'll wait in the car.
00:25:23I gotta admit,
00:25:25I never pictured you
00:25:27as a parent to a teenager.
00:25:29A single parent to a teenager,
00:25:31and trust me, I am aware.
00:25:33She seems so cool
00:25:35and smart,
00:25:37and she likes to build software.
00:25:39Well, the cool part she clearly gets from me.
00:25:41But the tech part,
00:25:43not so much.
00:25:45I think she should be out
00:25:47having fun, being a kid.
00:25:49Well,
00:25:51if she's anything like me,
00:25:53then programming is fun.
00:25:55And she'll meet a lot of other kids
00:25:57with similar interests.
00:26:03Um,
00:26:05I'll have a Santa hat.
00:26:07I'd appreciate that.
00:26:15You're welcome.
00:26:25We haven't done this together in years.
00:26:27I didn't realize how much I missed it.
00:26:29It wouldn't be our
00:26:31Winterfest charity fundraiser without
00:26:33my signature snowflake and snowman cookies.
00:26:35They always sell out.
00:26:37Wow, Mom, look at you.
00:26:39So,
00:26:41tell me everything about last night.
00:26:43Who you saw,
00:26:45what everyone is up to,
00:26:47how impressed they all are with your job.
00:26:49Not everybody cares about stuff like that.
00:26:51Everyone seemed really good.
00:26:53I mean, Katie and Jay
00:26:55are as in love as ever
00:26:57and killing it in the real estate world.
00:26:59Samantha has really
00:27:01come into her own.
00:27:03Cam was there.
00:27:05Oh, really?
00:27:07He's, um,
00:27:09actually moving to the Bay Area
00:27:11with Dad in the new year.
00:27:13Isn't that something?
00:27:15Sounds like fate to me.
00:27:17Does he have a good job?
00:27:19A master's degree?
00:27:21Mom, what?
00:27:23Just asking.
00:27:37Thank you, Holiday Ham,
00:27:39from Bill Wilson.
00:27:41Same gift.
00:27:45Oh, right.
00:27:47You keep it.
00:27:49It'll save you from ordering it.
00:27:53So, um,
00:27:55what are you doing for Christmas?
00:27:57I'll go to my Mom's.
00:27:59I'll just tell her you have to work.
00:28:01Well,
00:28:03that's definitely not
00:28:05how I saw this year going.
00:28:07Hey, look.
00:28:09I understood when you told me
00:28:11you needed space.
00:28:13It's a lot.
00:28:15Working together, being married.
00:28:17I guess I just
00:28:19don't see where we go from here.
00:28:21It feels like our life's
00:28:23running us instead of the other way around.
00:28:25I know we make a great team,
00:28:27but it's not enough.
00:28:29We both know that.
00:28:31It's funny. It used to be this
00:28:33couple that everybody wanted to be.
00:28:36Look at us now.
00:28:38If only they knew.
00:28:40They'd be disappointed.
00:28:42Just like we are.
00:28:49This place is so
00:28:51freaking festive, I can't
00:28:53handle it. Sam?
00:28:55Hi.
00:28:57I thought that was you.
00:28:59It's Bryce.
00:29:01Hi, I'm James.
00:29:03Samantha's platonic. That's fun.
00:29:05Nice to meet you, James.
00:29:07Sam, you look fantastic.
00:29:09Thanks.
00:29:11So do you.
00:29:13I assume you guys are here for the reunion, too.
00:29:15Yeah, wouldn't miss it.
00:29:17Bryce was captain of the swim team.
00:29:19And winter royal.
00:29:21And voted best-looking in the yearbook.
00:29:23And now I'm in grad school for urban planning in New York.
00:29:25Oh, how about that?
00:29:27Sam and I might be
00:29:29there soon, too, for work.
00:29:31Or a certain well-known morning show.
00:29:33What are you doing?
00:29:35I'm starting rumors. It's one of my many skills.
00:29:37Well, you'll have to
00:29:39hit me up sometime.
00:29:41Both of you.
00:29:45I gotta go, but
00:29:47see you guys around.
00:29:49Looking forward
00:29:51to it.
00:30:01Come on, Tom.
00:30:03Pick up, pick up, pick up.
00:30:05Where are you, Tom?
00:30:31Yeah!
00:30:35Thank you, guys.
00:30:37Have a good set, guys.
00:30:45You guys were
00:30:47great up there.
00:30:49Thanks. A couple of the guys from the band
00:30:51are still around.
00:30:53The band?
00:30:55Like the high school senior year
00:30:57talent show band?
00:30:59What's your piece of, like,
00:31:01a terrible name?
00:31:03The Harmony Wizards.
00:31:05What can I say? We were raised on American Idol
00:31:07and Harry Potter.
00:31:09Then you're playing
00:31:11one of Jay's parties
00:31:13and your amps blew like a fuse?
00:31:15The entire neighborhood lost power.
00:31:17Yeah, that was us.
00:31:19But I only play the acoustic guitar now,
00:31:21so you don't have to worry.
00:31:23Well, that's a huge relief.
00:31:25Yeah, I switched over
00:31:27to the baby she loved listening to me play,
00:31:29but now, you know, she'd rather run around
00:31:31with her friends than listen to me.
00:31:33Well,
00:31:35did you want to hang out with your parents when you were her age?
00:31:37I know you're making a valid point,
00:31:39but it doesn't mean I like it.
00:31:41I was kind of hoping
00:31:43if I won her a couple prizes
00:31:45from the fun and games area,
00:31:47maybe she'd be impressed with her old man.
00:31:49Okay.
00:31:51One, do not use old man.
00:31:53We are barely in our thirties.
00:31:55And two,
00:31:57I could stand to blow off some steam
00:31:59at the snowball throw.
00:32:01Everything okay?
00:32:03Yeah, just some work stress.
00:32:05Okay.
00:32:07Okay, you promise not to be a sore loser?
00:32:09No, of course,
00:32:11because I'm not going to lose.
00:32:15Now, I still would have respected you
00:32:17if you would have thrown the game or two my way.
00:32:19You wish.
00:32:21Hey,
00:32:23it's your mom's cookie booth.
00:32:25Oh, wow, these look amazing.
00:32:27Skylar's going to love these.
00:32:29And it matches
00:32:31the keychain I won.
00:32:33Hey, Elle.
00:32:35Wow, those look delicious.
00:32:37Hey, Cam.
00:32:39Put me down for a box, too.
00:32:41Devin Ryan.
00:32:43It's been a long time.
00:32:45Yeah, it has.
00:32:47Devin's company is doing the setup for the reunion.
00:32:49Nice.
00:32:51So you're still living around here?
00:32:53Yeah.
00:32:55That must be a trip.
00:32:57I can't imagine.
00:32:59What do you mean?
00:33:01Just, you know, living in your hometown still.
00:33:03Anyway,
00:33:05a bunch of people are gathering at Page Park tomorrow.
00:33:07Want to go, Elle?
00:33:09Go sledding together?
00:33:11Yeah, you too.
00:33:13Sure, that'd be great.
00:33:15Devin, you in?
00:33:19Why not?
00:33:29Look what I found.
00:33:31Don't mind me.
00:33:33What are you wearing
00:33:35and why?
00:33:37Please tell me you didn't dig this up
00:33:39just to make fun of my teenage style choices.
00:33:41I wanted to see if you and Elle
00:33:43were friends back then.
00:33:45We didn't really run
00:33:47in the same circles, Skye.
00:33:49She was more of a
00:33:51color-inside-the-lines kind of person
00:33:53and I was fun.
00:33:55Can I have my laptop back, please?
00:33:57She's super smart, Dad.
00:33:59I'm aware of that.
00:34:01Hey,
00:34:03I was thinking,
00:34:05this coding camp.
00:34:07I looked at the website,
00:34:09I read some reviews,
00:34:11and it looks pretty fantastic.
00:34:13And I hear
00:34:15you'll meet a lot of kids with the same interests.
00:34:17Does that mean I can go?
00:34:19You promise to FaceTime me twice a day?
00:34:21Yes, yes, yes!
00:34:23Thank you, Dad!
00:34:27And this
00:34:29digital database you mentioned,
00:34:31is that something you could
00:34:33really build?
00:34:35Totally! You would have one section for inventory
00:34:37and another for accounts.
00:34:39I can use that as my project for the coding camp application.
00:34:41I can start right now.
00:34:45Sorry.
00:34:47Oh, he's mine.
00:34:49There it is.
00:34:55I used to love
00:34:57coming here as a kid,
00:34:59even in high school.
00:35:01On snow days, we used to all show up
00:35:03and we would compete to see how many people we could fit on a sled.
00:35:05I never really understood
00:35:07the fun of sledding.
00:35:09I mean, all the way up a hill, just for a few seconds of sliding down,
00:35:11during which you could break your arm
00:35:13and blow out.
00:35:15Where's your sense of adventure?
00:35:17Oh, he's here.
00:35:19Who?
00:35:21Bryce.
00:35:23Oh, um, Samantha.
00:35:25Hey there.
00:35:27Hey, guys. So you decided on staying warm and dry.
00:35:29We don't have sleds.
00:35:31Well, I'm happy to share.
00:35:33Sam, you can go first,
00:35:35and then you and I can go down together.
00:35:37Um,
00:35:39I would love to.
00:35:41Yeah, sledding is totally my thing.
00:35:43Can you just give us a sec?
00:35:45Great.
00:35:47I'll meet you up top.
00:35:51I thought you knew.
00:35:53It's like I invent new ways to embarrass myself.
00:35:55Just say the word,
00:35:57and I won't even so much as look at him again.
00:35:59Oh, no.
00:36:01Don't be silly. He likes you.
00:36:03Go. Have some adventure.
00:36:05I'll sit here
00:36:07and enjoy my hot chocolate.
00:36:27Hey.
00:36:29Where's James?
00:36:31Sledding. With Bryce.
00:36:33He's getting noticed.
00:36:35What do you mean?
00:36:37This reunion is bringing up
00:36:39all sorts of high school feelings
00:36:41for me.
00:36:43Isn't it strange how you can go
00:36:45make a whole life for yourself
00:36:47and then you're still trying to impress people
00:36:49you don't even know anymore?
00:36:51Actually,
00:36:53not as strange as you might think.
00:36:55And
00:36:57everybody loved you in high school.
00:36:59No, everyone loved you
00:37:01in high school.
00:37:03I was in the background.
00:37:05Invisible.
00:37:07Not to me, you weren't.
00:37:11I called you
00:37:13when I was out in San Francisco last year.
00:37:15I know.
00:37:17I'm sorry. I should have called you back.
00:37:19I just get so
00:37:21tunnel-visioned with my job sometimes
00:37:23that I forget to have a personal life.
00:37:27You work so
00:37:29hard, do everything you're
00:37:31supposed to.
00:37:33Does it even matter?
00:37:35You know?
00:37:37What's it all for?
00:37:39Ella, is everything okay?
00:37:43Yeah.
00:37:45I'm just having a moment.
00:37:47Hey.
00:37:49Can I
00:37:51talk to you for a second?
00:37:53Yeah.
00:37:55Let me just say.
00:37:57I'm going to warn you.
00:37:59My middle name is Speed.
00:38:01The hotel called.
00:38:03We have a problem.
00:38:05I'm sure it's nothing we can't handle.
00:38:15The fire in the kitchen
00:38:17was containable.
00:38:19But the smoke and water damage to the ballroom
00:38:21is significant.
00:38:23As much as I've so enjoyed working with you both,
00:38:25there is no way
00:38:27we can host your reunion.
00:38:33We can fix this.
00:38:35We just need to find another location.
00:38:37At least your props and equipment weren't loaded in yet.
00:38:39Uh, Elle?
00:38:41We loaded it all in last night.
00:38:43I wanted the crew to get an early start
00:38:45to make sure everything would be ready for tomorrow.
00:38:49Including the Santa hats.
00:38:51Insurance will cover
00:38:53what we lost, but even if you do find
00:38:55another place, all my holiday stuff
00:38:57is already spoken for for other events.
00:38:59Is it the worst thing
00:39:01if there's no reunion?
00:39:03People have been
00:39:05looking forward to this for months
00:39:07and I for one am not going to let them down.
00:39:09Has our class
00:39:11had an extraordinarily long list
00:39:13of calamities? Yes.
00:39:15Is it strange that it
00:39:17keeps happening? Yes.
00:39:19But does that really mean that
00:39:21our class is cursed?
00:39:25Yes? No!
00:39:27This is just a small roadblock.
00:39:29It's a speed bump.
00:39:31If it seems like things are going wrong, well that's when you need
00:39:33to roll up your sleeves and get to work.
00:39:35We have a little over
00:39:3724 hours to pull it together.
00:39:39This Christmas class reunion
00:39:41will happen.
00:39:43All right team,
00:39:45ideas. Shout them out.
00:39:47My brother-in-law wants the bakery down on Main.
00:39:49I'll see if he can get us some free desserts.
00:39:51We have a bunch of small tchotchkes we use to stage houses.
00:39:53Christmas trees, lights, bows.
00:39:55I can contact the local news station
00:39:57and see if they're willing to help out with some sound equipment.
00:39:59Perfect. We'll take everything we can get.
00:40:01Thanks everybody.
00:40:03Okay.
00:40:05I'm going to research some new locations,
00:40:07make some calls.
00:40:09And I'll look around the warehouse to see if there's any
00:40:11that even resembles holiday inventory
00:40:13that I can scrounge up.
00:40:15That's great.
00:40:17Okay.
00:40:19Good luck.
00:40:21All right.
00:40:25Hi.
00:40:27Hey.
00:40:29What are you doing here?
00:40:31Just more reunion planning.
00:40:33Your dad went to go locate some inventory.
00:40:35See, that's exactly what I'm trying to help him with.
00:40:37If he had a digital database,
00:40:39everything would be at his fingertips.
00:40:41That's a really good idea.
00:40:45You want to see?
00:40:47Absolutely.
00:40:51Ever since my grandparents retired,
00:40:53Dad has really expanded some things around here.
00:40:55Except for the technology.
00:40:57So I thought I'd help him join the 21st century.
00:41:01These are all of your dad's clients?
00:41:05He has some pretty big accounts.
00:41:07Everybody loves my dad.
00:41:09He's always dependable,
00:41:11so his customers are super loyal.
00:41:13Anyway, I've got some more back-end work to do,
00:41:15but this is pretty much it.
00:41:17Well, I would say that you are off to a really great start.
00:41:21You are light years ahead of where I was at your age.
00:41:25Getting feedback from you is, like, really awesome.
00:41:27Well, I mean, you're, like, really awesome.
00:41:33I'm sure you're realizing
00:41:35how little brains behind this operation is.
00:41:37Honey, can you give us a second?
00:41:39Bye, y'all.
00:41:41Bye, Skylar.
00:41:45So, there might be one possible
00:41:47last resort option for some decorations.
00:41:49But it won't be pretty.
00:41:51Welcome to the land of lost decorations.
00:41:53Otherwise known as the storage room
00:41:55where I keep the older stuff no one wants to rent.
00:42:01Hmm.
00:42:05My mother was a really great artist.
00:42:07I've never met her.
00:42:09She's a really great person.
00:42:11She's a really great person.
00:42:13She's a really great person.
00:42:15She's a really great person.
00:42:17She's a really great person.
00:42:19Oh!
00:42:21My mother would love this.
00:42:23I think she would honestly faint.
00:42:25There is no one who loves Christmas more than her.
00:42:27Uh, I'll take that bet.
00:42:29You should see my parents' place.
00:42:31They have an inflatable nativity scene
00:42:33on the front lawn.
00:42:35Year-round.
00:42:37That's pretty good, but, uh,
00:42:39I'll do you one better.
00:42:41L is my nickname.
00:42:43My given name is
00:42:45Noelle.
00:42:47You're joking.
00:42:49No, I'm not.
00:42:51Game over. You win.
00:42:55Okay, so I'm guessing
00:42:57this isn't up to the usual
00:42:59L. Chamberlain standards, but, I mean,
00:43:01it's better than nothing.
00:43:03Well, it'll definitely need some
00:43:05TLC, but, you know,
00:43:07we can make this work.
00:43:09Where do we even start?
00:43:11Well, anything that doesn't disintegrate when you touch it
00:43:13is up for grabs.
00:43:15I mean,
00:43:17this is like a dream playground
00:43:19for a kid.
00:43:21Skyler must love it.
00:43:23Well, she did.
00:43:25She's a little old for it now,
00:43:27which she constantly reminds me about.
00:43:29She likes you, though.
00:43:33She's a great kid, Devin,
00:43:35and you're doing a wonderful job.
00:43:37What about Skyler's mom?
00:43:39Uh, yeah,
00:43:41they FaceTime twice a week.
00:43:43She's deployed overseas,
00:43:45Air Force.
00:43:47We were just a couple of college kids,
00:43:49and it didn't work out.
00:43:51Never would have planned
00:43:53my life to go this way,
00:43:55but sometimes the best
00:43:57things are the ones you didn't plan.
00:44:01Devin Ryan,
00:44:03you are full of surprises.
00:44:05Fifteen years ago,
00:44:07I couldn't get you to attend
00:44:09a single student government meeting,
00:44:11and now you're helping
00:44:13save the reunion.
00:44:17I really appreciate all this.
00:44:19Well, if you want some assistance
00:44:21with finding some other venues,
00:44:23I could help make some calls.
00:44:25Sure, that would be great.
00:44:27Do you want to swing by tomorrow morning?
00:44:29Sure.
00:44:35Hey.
00:44:37Uh,
00:44:39Bobby said that he could lend us
00:44:41some of the shaping dishes,
00:44:43so I figured I'd just swing by and pick them up.
00:44:45I just came to pick up
00:44:47some of the decor we lent him
00:44:49for his holiday karaoke.
00:44:51Right.
00:44:53Hey, my brother asked
00:44:55about Christmas Eve dinner.
00:44:57I said you'd be at your mother's.
00:44:59This'll be the first Christmas
00:45:01we've spent apart since we were teenagers.
00:45:03I know.
00:45:05It's kind of hard for me
00:45:07to imagine Christmas morning
00:45:09without your freshly baked monkey bread.
00:45:11It makes it all feel very...
00:45:13real.
00:45:17Well, I should...
00:45:19Yeah.
00:45:27Tom, I am trying
00:45:29really, really hard
00:45:31not to freak out over here.
00:45:33If you could just give me a call back in the morning,
00:45:35I would greatly appreciate it.
00:45:39Hell, honey,
00:45:41you have a visitor.
00:45:45Hey.
00:45:47Hey, so how's Operation Save the Reunion going?
00:45:49Uh, great.
00:45:51It's, um, it's gonna be great.
00:45:53We're gonna figure it out
00:45:55and find a new venue.
00:45:57It'll be great.
00:45:59Very convincing.
00:46:01People who don't work as hard as you
00:46:03have probably already gone home for the day.
00:46:05Right.
00:46:07There's this really cool thing called dinner.
00:46:09Maybe you've heard of it?
00:46:11I think it kind of rings a bell.
00:46:13So...
00:46:15why don't we go grab a bite?
00:46:17I have still so much to do.
00:46:19Come on.
00:46:21You deserve a break.
00:46:23Plus, I already made reservations.
00:46:25One of our old favorites?
00:46:27I guess I could go for a nice meal.
00:46:33I used to think
00:46:35this was the epitome of fine dining
00:46:37when we were kids.
00:46:39I did, too.
00:46:41I am so sorry.
00:46:43This is not what I was picturing for our first dinner.
00:46:45We should go somewhere else.
00:46:47No. Sometimes the best things
00:46:49are the ones that you didn't plan.
00:46:51Right?
00:46:53And...
00:46:55this is definitely
00:46:57the only restaurant in town
00:46:59with moussaka a la Christmas.
00:47:01Bread and green sauce.
00:47:03Brilliant.
00:47:05Hey, we're all in town for the nostalgia,
00:47:07so let's go for it.
00:47:09Here's to being old enough to drink
00:47:11at the classiest Greek restaurant
00:47:13in the tri-state area.
00:47:15Cheers.
00:47:23Oh, sorry.
00:47:25I couldn't make the emergency meeting today.
00:47:27But I had a couple big conference calls.
00:47:29But this
00:47:31is what
00:47:33reunions are all about.
00:47:35Connecting.
00:47:37True.
00:47:39I have to be honest with you.
00:47:41I googled you a few days ago.
00:47:43You're a really intriguing person.
00:47:45I mean, you always were.
00:47:47Um, I
00:47:49actually looked you up online, too.
00:47:51You did?
00:47:53I was also
00:47:55curious.
00:47:57I, um...
00:47:59I had a huge
00:48:01crush on you senior year.
00:48:03Really?
00:48:05Okay, don't laugh.
00:48:07But I had
00:48:09the perfect fantasy
00:48:11planned in my head for winter formal.
00:48:13You would surprise me
00:48:15at my house, all dressed to the nines,
00:48:17holding a corsage,
00:48:19and you would ask me
00:48:21if you could escort me to the ball,
00:48:23and then we would dance
00:48:25the night away with all of our friends.
00:48:29Why didn't you say something?
00:48:31I... I don't know.
00:48:33I... I was
00:48:35working up the nerve, and then
00:48:37you asked Abby Ferguson
00:48:39to dance.
00:48:41And obviously, the rest of the night
00:48:43went a bit sideways.
00:48:45Yes, it did.
00:48:49Why didn't you ever ask me up?
00:48:51To be honest with you, Al,
00:48:53you were way out of my league.
00:48:55What?
00:48:57Valedictorian,
00:48:59class president, president
00:49:01of a lot of things, actually.
00:49:07Speaking of being president of things,
00:49:09I'm putting together
00:49:11an advisory panel of tech industry professionals
00:49:13for one of my clients.
00:49:15I'd love to get your feedback on it.
00:49:17Oh.
00:49:19Uh, sure.
00:49:21Mm-hmm.
00:49:23Great.
00:49:31All right, what do we got?
00:49:33So I put together a spreadsheet
00:49:35of 23 potential venues
00:49:37within a 40-mile radius.
00:49:39I should have ordered doubles.
00:49:43They're booked through Easter.
00:49:45You definitely need heat in bathrooms, right?
00:49:49Yes, having a broken elevator
00:49:51for a restaurant on the 36th floor
00:49:53is a deal-breaker.
00:49:55Your auditorium
00:49:57is still an active crime scene
00:49:59for a double murder?
00:50:05Exotic dancers?
00:50:07Your name,
00:50:09the North Pole, is very misleading.
00:50:15Well,
00:50:17that was the last one on the list.
00:50:19We're toast.
00:50:21We just need to think
00:50:23outside the box.
00:50:25We're resourceful people.
00:50:27We could turn any space into
00:50:29a winter wonderland.
00:50:31I mean, you even made magic
00:50:33out of our high school gym at winter formal.
00:50:35Wasn't all magic that night.
00:50:45Let's do that again.
00:50:47Flood a gym?
00:50:49Yes.
00:50:51No, I mean not the flooding part,
00:50:53the gymnasium.
00:50:55It's big, it's nostalgic,
00:50:57and it has heat in bathrooms.
00:50:59That's either the greatest
00:51:01idea of all time or the worst.
00:51:03But we really don't have any other options, do we?
00:51:05Who would we even call?
00:51:07Believe it or not,
00:51:09Principal Holt is still running
00:51:11the show at Brookswood.
00:51:13And
00:51:15I know exactly where to find him.
00:51:17Ho, ho, ho!
00:51:19Merry Christmas!
00:51:21Ho, ho, ho!
00:51:23Best time of the year.
00:51:25It's a shock. I know.
00:51:27I mean,
00:51:29he looks great.
00:51:31Smile for Santa.
00:51:33And
00:51:35have you been good this year?
00:51:37Aren't you guys a little, not eight years old
00:51:39to be visiting Santa Claus?
00:51:41We're just...
00:51:43Shh. It's okay.
00:51:45This is a safe space
00:51:47for true believers like us.
00:51:49What?
00:51:55Hi.
00:51:57Principal Holt,
00:51:59it's Elle Chamberlain.
00:52:01Principal Holt? My dear,
00:52:03my name is Santa Claus.
00:52:05Of course,
00:52:07Santa.
00:52:09Do you remember me?
00:52:11Santa Claus never forgets a name.
00:52:13Especially from the nice list.
00:52:17Hello, Santa.
00:52:19Devin Ryan.
00:52:21Pretty sure your name's still
00:52:23at the top of the naughty list.
00:52:25We have a
00:52:27really big favor to ask.
00:52:29Can we use the high school's gym
00:52:31for the reunion tonight?
00:52:33That doesn't sound as much like
00:52:35a favor as a Christmas wish.
00:52:37That's really
00:52:39Santa's specialty.
00:52:43Take a seat.
00:52:51However,
00:52:53the school is closed for the
00:52:55remainder of the year, so...
00:52:57I know, and we wouldn't be asking unless
00:52:59it was our truly last
00:53:01and only hope.
00:53:03We literally have hours before the reunion
00:53:05hours to begin, and we're desperate.
00:53:07And you know the class of
00:53:092007 has faced its
00:53:11challenges over the years?
00:53:13Some of them were your
00:53:15holly jolly doing, if I do
00:53:17recall, my dear boy.
00:53:19Smile!
00:53:23Please, Santa,
00:53:25we just want to get the class together.
00:53:27It would be our
00:53:29Christmas wish.
00:53:31Peppermint!
00:53:35If you promise me there will
00:53:37be no mischief, Devin,
00:53:39I will
00:53:41grant you your Christmas
00:53:43wish. Thank you, Santa.
00:53:47Got me.
00:53:53Magic of Christmas.
00:53:55Perfect.
00:53:57Elle,
00:53:59come check this out.
00:54:01This is looking great.
00:54:03Great!
00:54:07Your brother-in-law
00:54:09really came through for us.
00:54:11Thanks.
00:54:13Have you seen Cam?
00:54:15He said that he'd set up the check-in table,
00:54:17but I haven't seen him yet.
00:54:19I'm sure he'll be here soon.
00:54:21Have you seen Cam?
00:54:23He said that he'd set up the check-in table,
00:54:25but I haven't heard from him.
00:54:27Oh, sorry.
00:54:35Not bad for an emergency backup plan.
00:54:41You did it.
00:54:43We did it.
00:54:45Tonight, the curse class
00:54:47breaks the curse.
00:54:49I could have done it without you.
00:54:51Something tells me
00:54:53you would have found a way.
00:54:59What a difference 15 years makes.
00:55:03Yeah, I should make sure
00:55:05the speakers are plugged in.
00:55:07And I'm going to go check on the name tags.
00:55:09Okay.
00:55:19You know,
00:55:21this place brings back so many memories.
00:55:23We should recreate our yearbook
00:55:25photo with the group,
00:55:27except without the embarrassing hairstyles this time.
00:55:31Katie, is everything okay?
00:55:33Jay moved out
00:55:35a month ago.
00:55:37What?
00:55:39Please don't say anything.
00:55:41I don't know what we're doing.
00:55:43All this on top of that, and it's Christmas.
00:55:45My head is swimming.
00:55:47Hey.
00:55:51I'm so sorry
00:55:53you guys are going through this.
00:55:57I guess I always just imagined the two of you
00:55:59as the perfect couple.
00:56:01I know, everyone thinks that.
00:56:03I thought that.
00:56:05But there's no such thing as perfect.
00:56:09We used to have fun together, make each other laugh,
00:56:11and now...
00:56:13I guess I was kind of hoping
00:56:15the reunion would bring something back for us.
00:56:17Maybe it will.
00:56:19You'll find your way through this.
00:56:43Oh!
00:57:03You look amazing.
00:57:07Okay, um...
00:57:09This isn't working with...
00:57:11With this. What's wrong?
00:57:15I was hoping to have some good news
00:57:17about New York for tonight.
00:57:19Samantha,
00:57:21please remember
00:57:23that you are bravely pursuing
00:57:25your dreams, and it is
00:57:27working.
00:57:29All that matters is what
00:57:31you think of you.
00:57:33Well, and what I think of you.
00:57:37Let's go get them.
00:57:41Hey, which...
00:57:43Which one?
00:57:49The green one, obviously.
00:57:51Ah, yeah.
00:57:53Thank you for your action advice.
00:57:55I can't believe you're going to a school dance
00:57:57at your age.
00:57:59It's a reunion.
00:58:01And you just went to a middle school Christmas dance
00:58:03like two weeks ago.
00:58:05Yeah, but...
00:58:07I'm 13, and you're old.
00:58:09Besides, isn't this
00:58:11the same reunion you said you had no interest in
00:58:13like three days ago?
00:58:15You're going because of Elle, aren't you?
00:58:17I am going
00:58:19because I am helping a friend,
00:58:21and I am a man of my word.
00:58:23It's okay, Dad. I like her.
00:58:25You haven't gone out with anyone in a long time.
00:58:27I think you should.
00:58:29You do?
00:58:31Of course.
00:58:33And if it's Elle,
00:58:35maybe we can visit her in California,
00:58:37and I can get an internship at Zig.
00:58:39Ah, your diabolical master plan
00:58:41has been revealed.
00:58:43Come on.
00:58:45She's incredibly cool.
00:58:47Yeah.
00:58:49And I like the way you look at her.
00:58:51I think she makes you happy.
00:58:55She's not the only one.
00:58:57Come here.
00:58:59Oh, Dad!
00:59:01Come here.
00:59:03I love you, too.
00:59:05I love you, too.
00:59:13Come in.
00:59:21Are you going to wear these tonight?
00:59:23No.
00:59:25But
00:59:27I do kind of feel like I'm back in high school
00:59:29getting ready for a dance.
00:59:31You'll have fun.
00:59:33We used to talk about
00:59:35living in the city, your big job.
00:59:37What if all of that went away?
00:59:39What do you mean?
00:59:45I've always felt
00:59:47pressure to achieve
00:59:49and succeed in school
00:59:51and then in work.
00:59:53Striving towards perfection.
00:59:55I've built my whole world
00:59:57around it, my identity.
00:59:59So
01:00:01what if it goes away?
01:00:03What's left?
01:00:17You know, as a parent,
01:00:19you can get caught up in your child's successes
01:00:21as a way to prove to the world that you did a good job.
01:00:25I may be guilty of that.
01:00:28But, Noelle,
01:00:30all your father and I ever wanted
01:00:32was for you to know that
01:00:34whatever you set your mind to, you could do.
01:00:36We just wanted you to know
01:00:38how capable you are
01:00:40so you could pursue every opportunity.
01:00:42I'm sorry if I pushed you too hard,
01:00:44but
01:00:46I never wanted you to be
01:00:48so caught up in achieving
01:00:50that you miss what's important in life.
01:00:54I just
01:00:56don't know what my path forward looks like.
01:01:00I don't know what will make me happy.
01:01:03That's okay.
01:01:05It might be a bumpy road
01:01:07to get there, but you will.
01:01:11Thanks, Mom.
01:01:20Were you expecting anyone?
01:01:22No.
01:01:27Wow.
01:01:37Wow. You look beautiful.
01:01:39Oh.
01:01:41What are you doing here?
01:01:47I was wondering if you'd like to join me
01:01:49at our school dance.
01:01:51Fifteen years late?
01:01:53Thought I'd go all in on the high school feels
01:01:55if I had to.
01:02:02You two have to pose by the tree.
01:02:04Mom!
01:02:06I would be happy to.
01:02:20I feel terrible I couldn't help with the setup today.
01:02:22I had yet another major situation
01:02:24with a client.
01:02:26Never ends.
01:02:28But you know how that goes.
01:02:40Talk about a blast
01:02:42from the past.
01:02:44I am so glad we did this.
01:02:46I have to admit,
01:02:48I'm a bit nervous.
01:02:50I hope this all goes smoothly.
01:02:52Don't worry, I will be right here with you.
01:02:58I'm so sorry.
01:03:00I really have to take this.
01:03:02Can you hold that thought?
01:03:04I'll see you inside.
01:03:12Okay.
01:03:22Oh my god!
01:03:24You look amazing.
01:03:26You guys look stunning.
01:03:28Elle Chamberlain for the win.
01:03:30Everyone's having a blast.
01:03:32It really did come together, didn't it?
01:03:34Speaking of coming together,
01:03:36are you here on a date?
01:03:38Oh, um,
01:03:40yes, so, uh,
01:03:42Cam and I have actually
01:03:44hung out a bit this week,
01:03:46and then, um,
01:03:48we're going on a date.
01:03:50Cam and I have hung out a bit this week,
01:03:52and then, um, he asked me to dance.
01:03:54Oh, it's so romantic.
01:03:56Look at you, finally getting everything you wanted.
01:03:58Yeah, I guess so.
01:04:06Um,
01:04:08I gotta take this.
01:04:10I'll be right back. Just save me a dance.
01:04:12Okay, great.
01:04:20Oh.
01:04:30Hey.
01:04:32Elle.
01:04:36What's wrong?
01:04:38Um,
01:04:40nothing. Everything, everything is fine.
01:04:50Hey.
01:04:56If nothing's wrong,
01:04:58then why were you standing outside staring at your phone
01:05:00like you just found out Christmas was cancelled?
01:05:06Zig is officially over.
01:05:10Everything that I have been working
01:05:12so hard for is
01:05:14gone.
01:05:16No more 3,535
01:05:18months.
01:05:20It's all over.
01:05:24Oh, Elle, I am
01:05:26I am so sorry.
01:05:30But this isn't a reflection of you.
01:05:34It will be.
01:05:36Trust me, in the Valley,
01:05:38Zig will be the butt of every joke,
01:05:40and so will I.
01:05:42And the timing,
01:05:44when I'm back here in my old high school,
01:05:46everybody who thinks
01:05:48I've become this big success,
01:05:52my resume is how I know
01:05:54who I am.
01:06:02When I
01:06:04first found out I was going to be a father,
01:06:06I was in total
01:06:08denial. I mean,
01:06:10I was supposed to be out traveling with
01:06:12my band, and...
01:06:14The Bloody Magicians?
01:06:16The Harmony Wizards?
01:06:20And, um,
01:06:22I had to give that all up.
01:06:24I had to recalibrate.
01:06:28I did not see myself
01:06:30as a parent,
01:06:32but I was.
01:06:34It was in there,
01:06:36I just didn't know it yet.
01:06:38Because when I held Skylar
01:06:40for the first time,
01:06:42and watched her take her first steps,
01:06:44and then she called me Dad,
01:06:48it just felt like
01:06:50the most right thing in the world.
01:06:54So, having Skylar
01:06:56helped you find yourself.
01:07:00I've never felt more lost in my life.
01:07:02You're not lost.
01:07:04You're just
01:07:06changing directions.
01:07:09I mean, Steve Jobs
01:07:11lost his company twice
01:07:13before he had major success.
01:07:15What?
01:07:17What? I read!
01:07:21Devin Ryan,
01:07:23you're continually full of surprises.
01:07:27Wait, what are you even doing here?
01:07:29I thought that you weren't interested
01:07:31in reunions.
01:07:33I got a truckload of dusty,
01:07:35never-used decorations in there.
01:07:37I'm just here to keep an eye on them,
01:07:39make sure nothing goes wrong.
01:07:41Yeah.
01:07:43Can't trust these high school kids.
01:07:48I'm glad you came.
01:07:50I wouldn't want to miss your big night.
01:07:57Shall we?
01:08:07Hey.
01:08:09Let tonight be magical.
01:08:11Tomorrow's a new day.
01:08:17There you are!
01:08:19I've been looking all over for you.
01:08:21Can I grab you for a minute?
01:08:23There is something very important
01:08:25I need to talk to you about.
01:08:27Um...
01:08:29Devin,
01:08:31can I find you later?
01:08:33Devin, can I find you later?
01:08:37Oh.
01:08:39Come on.
01:08:51I just heard the news about Zig.
01:08:53Man, what a terrible thing to happen
01:08:55so close to Christmas,
01:08:57but I can help you fix this.
01:08:59What are you talking about?
01:09:01He's the best in the business,
01:09:03and he's willing to help you out as a favor to me.
01:09:05The most important thing
01:09:07is to jump on this right away,
01:09:09protect your reputation.
01:09:11You don't want something like this to derail your career.
01:09:13I can call him right now.
01:09:21No.
01:09:23Thanks, Cam.
01:09:25I'll handle this my own way.
01:09:27But not tonight.
01:09:29Tonight.
01:09:31Tonight is about celebrating
01:09:33and being with friends.
01:09:35Are you sure?
01:09:37More than ever.
01:09:39Okay.
01:09:41Call.
01:09:43So, do you want to dance?
01:09:47If high school me
01:09:49could see this moment right now,
01:09:51she would be
01:09:53so happy.
01:09:55Great. Let's go.
01:09:57You seem like
01:09:59a decent guy, Cam.
01:10:01The kind of guy that
01:10:03anyone looking for
01:10:05someone who cares about
01:10:07perfection and success
01:10:09would be thrilled to find.
01:10:11But I'm not that person anymore.
01:10:17I don't understand.
01:10:19I want to be the kind of person who
01:10:21takes a chance.
01:10:23A chance on what?
01:10:25On
01:10:27telling someone else
01:10:29that I feel something
01:10:31for them.
01:10:33And for once in my life,
01:10:35not doing something
01:10:37that's planned.
01:10:55So,
01:10:57do you think
01:10:59that you might be able to find
01:11:01another dance partner?
01:11:03Oh, I'm good.
01:11:05I'm pretty sure I saw her at the Ferguson Bo Bar.
01:11:19Hey.
01:11:21It's speech time.
01:11:23Uh, can't it wait?
01:11:25No, we've got to be out of here soon.
01:11:29Okay.
01:11:37Hello?
01:11:39Hi, can I please have your attention?
01:11:41Welcome back, Brookswood
01:11:43class of 2007.
01:11:45I can't believe I am back
01:11:47on this stage.
01:11:53Devin, I'm watching you.
01:11:55I just want to thank you
01:11:57all so much for working
01:11:59so hard to make this finally happen.
01:12:05We did it.
01:12:07The curse class is no more.
01:12:19Hey.
01:12:21How's the generators? Hopefully they'll be up soon.
01:12:23It's really coming down outside. The parking lot
01:12:25is covered. This city should be salting and
01:12:27plowing soon though. So the safest thing
01:12:29for everyone is to hunker down here
01:12:31and wait until it's over? Yeah, we should look
01:12:33for supplies in case it's a long night or the pipes
01:12:35freeze. I have some flashlights
01:12:37in my truck we could grab.
01:12:39So, yeah.
01:12:41Okay. Looks like
01:12:43the curse wasn't done with us quite yet.
01:12:45And we were so close.
01:12:47There's
01:12:49something I need to tell you.
01:12:51We don't have to
01:12:53do this right now.
01:12:55You have a lot on your mind already.
01:12:57Yeah,
01:12:59it can wait.
01:13:09This is crazy.
01:13:11There's got to be some blankets
01:13:13or supplies in one of these rooms.
01:13:15At this point, I'd be fine with a breaker switch.
01:13:35I know we're not students anymore.
01:13:37I mean, we're full-on adults.
01:13:39But it still kind of feels like
01:13:41we're not supposed to be in here.
01:13:43Yeah. And I always
01:13:45pictured this room to be
01:13:47way less pathetic.
01:13:49Right?
01:13:51Speaking of
01:13:53pathetic, I
01:13:55lost my job tonight.
01:13:57Maybe my whole career.
01:13:59What?
01:14:01Oh, Al.
01:14:03I'm so sorry.
01:14:13Katie?
01:14:17What are you doing?
01:14:19This spot.
01:14:21Recognize it?
01:14:25Yeah.
01:14:27It's our spot.
01:14:29We used to come here
01:14:31every day between 4th and 5th period.
01:14:33Until Principal Holt
01:14:35blessed us.
01:14:37Wow.
01:14:41I used to look forward
01:14:43to that moment all day.
01:14:45Me too.
01:14:47I found this tonight
01:14:49when I was getting ready.
01:14:51I haven't worn it in years.
01:14:57What are we doing?
01:14:59I don't know.
01:15:01I remember
01:15:03when we were kids.
01:15:05I remember
01:15:07the old us.
01:15:09But who are we now?
01:15:11I think we need to be careful, Jay,
01:15:13or we're going to lose what we had.
01:15:15What we have.
01:15:17It's like we became
01:15:19work partners
01:15:21and forgot how to be life partners.
01:15:23How do we fix that?
01:15:27We go to Paris.
01:15:29Jay, I'm serious.
01:15:31I am too.
01:15:33We spend the first two weeks
01:15:35of the new year doing something we should have done
01:15:37a long time ago.
01:15:39We focus on us.
01:15:41On our future outside the office.
01:15:45I love you.
01:15:47Then, now,
01:15:49and always.
01:15:51I love you too.
01:15:57You know, that night
01:15:59at Winter Formal,
01:16:01I was so jealous of you.
01:16:05You were?
01:16:07You got the crown.
01:16:09You were popular
01:16:11and pretty and...
01:16:15I just felt like
01:16:17nothing.
01:16:21Sam, I...
01:16:23You know, I have spent so much of my life
01:16:25looking for validation
01:16:27from other people.
01:16:29It's exhausting.
01:16:31And I don't want to do that anymore.
01:16:33And neither should you.
01:16:37There you are.
01:16:39Sam, you got it.
01:16:41Got what?
01:16:43Sam's assistant heard from one of the legal associates
01:16:45who saw an email from corporate.
01:16:47You got the job.
01:16:49We're moving to New York!
01:16:51Really?
01:16:53I can't believe it!
01:16:55Yay!
01:16:59Oh!
01:17:05No fraternizing on school property!
01:17:09I brought my engineering elves
01:17:11to get the power back on
01:17:13just in the Saint Nick
01:17:15of time, it seems.
01:17:17Yeah, we're just gonna...
01:17:23Crazy kids.
01:17:25Look at you two.
01:17:27Still Brookswood's most epic love story.
01:17:29Like I said,
01:17:31what a difference 15 years makes.
01:17:33No corsage?
01:17:37I need to find Devin.
01:17:39Devin?
01:17:41I don't think I've seen him
01:17:43since he got us the flashlights.
01:17:45I think he might have left.
01:17:55Hi, Dad.
01:17:57Hey, Sky.
01:17:59Uh, just checking in.
01:18:01You doing okay?
01:18:03I'm doing fine, but the school power outage
01:18:05is all over social media.
01:18:07What did you do now, Dad?
01:18:09Ha ha ha.
01:18:11It's back on now.
01:18:13I'm gonna head home.
01:18:15You're coming home already?
01:18:17That's lame, even for you.
01:18:19Oh, thank you for that.
01:18:21Turns out I was right.
01:18:23Oh, no, honey, I just...
01:18:25Sometimes things don't turn out
01:18:27the way you hoped they would.
01:18:29I'll see you soon.
01:18:33Well, folks,
01:18:35the storm is finally letting up,
01:18:37the snow plows are out and about,
01:18:39and it's time for us to shut things down,
01:18:41so get home safe, everybody,
01:18:43and Merry Christmas.
01:18:45Wait, wait, wait.
01:18:49Uh, hi.
01:18:51Please, please don't leave quite yet.
01:18:53You know, reunions
01:18:55are supposed to give us a chance
01:18:57to reminisce and
01:18:59relive the good old days.
01:19:01This week,
01:19:03I found myself reflecting more
01:19:05on how I spent the last 15 years.
01:19:07And I realized
01:19:09that no matter
01:19:11how many plans you make
01:19:13or goals you set,
01:19:15you can never fully prepare yourself
01:19:17for what's gonna happen.
01:19:19You can't control it.
01:19:21There will be things that change you,
01:19:23inside and out,
01:19:25hopefully for the better.
01:19:27I'm not the same person
01:19:29I was 15 years ago.
01:19:31None of us are.
01:19:33And that is a beautiful thing,
01:19:35because
01:19:37I can't wait to see what's next
01:19:39for all of us.
01:19:41So, I think
01:19:43this reunion could use one more
01:19:45song, right?
01:19:47Before we all go home
01:19:49to celebrate the holidays with our families.
01:19:51Before we all go off
01:19:53into what's next.
01:19:55And,
01:19:57because there is someone
01:19:59special I haven't danced
01:20:01with yet.
01:20:05Devin Ryan.
01:20:07Devin Ryan, please
01:20:09report to the gym.
01:20:17...
01:20:19...
01:20:21...
01:20:23...
01:20:25...
01:20:27...
01:20:29...
01:20:31...
01:20:33...
01:20:35...
01:20:37I thought you left.
01:20:39I almost did.
01:20:41Well, I'm
01:20:43glad you didn't because
01:20:45I'm gonna need a ride
01:20:47home tonight.
01:20:59For what?
01:21:01About a million things.
01:21:05This reunion
01:21:07didn't go as planned.
01:21:09At all.
01:21:11But,
01:21:13in the end,

01:21:42It wouldn't be
01:21:44Winter Formal without a little

01:21:53Don't worry.

01:22:20My interview with the Governor ran long
01:22:22and my train was delayed.
01:22:24Did I miss anything?
01:22:26No. No worries.
