00:00:30Once upon a time seems to be the perfect way to begin a story like this.
00:00:35Once it's been told, you'll probably ask yourself, was it possible?
00:00:40Could this have actually happened?
00:00:43Well, that, my dear friends, is entirely up to you.
00:00:47So why don't we start our story at the very best place possible?
00:00:51The beginning.
00:00:53And this beginning, oddly enough, starts in the past.
00:00:56Over 3,000 years ago, in ancient Greece.
00:01:04Her name was Daphne, Princess of Athens,
00:01:09and rumored to be one of the most beautiful of all the king's daughters.
00:01:12Daphne had been sent to study with Pericles,
00:01:17a hard-working and kind philosopher who was the son of Theodora,
00:01:21high priestess of Poseidon.
00:01:24Well, this all sounds very dramatic, doesn't it?
00:01:27Well, trust me when I tell you, that's exactly how things were back then.
00:01:31And like most famous Greek stories, it involved a terrible tragedy.
00:01:35You see, while Daphne wasn't de-beautiful, she was also cold and cruel.
00:01:43Pericles had looked past those qualities and fallen deeply in love with her.
00:01:48Being a lowly commoner, however, Daphne wanted nothing to do with him.
00:01:52She tormented him and broke his heart in the process.
00:01:55Accepting that his unchanging feelings would never be reciprocated,
00:02:00Pericles decided to join the great battle at Troy.
00:02:04Daphne had, however, foolishly underestimated the love of a mother.
00:02:10Oh, and magic.
00:02:12I completely forgot to mention, there's magic.
00:02:16Theodora, who was a great sorceress in her own right,
00:02:20had foreseen that her son would never return from Troy,
00:02:22being lost at sea during the journey.
00:02:25Although she had warned Pericles about this,
00:02:27his heart was so shattered that she was unable to convince him to remain.
00:02:33Theodora was so enraged at the loss of her son
00:02:35that she placed a curse on Daphne,
00:02:38transforming her into a being that was half-human
00:02:41and half-sea creature.
00:02:44A mermaid.
00:02:46She would spend an eternity at sea as punishment
00:02:49for driving Pericles away.
00:02:51Before disappearing, however,
00:02:56Theodora offered Daphne one single chance of redemption.
00:02:59Every hundred years, she would be permitted to return to land for ten days
00:03:03to find a reborn version of her son.
00:03:06In the event that Daphne was able to find him
00:03:08and perform a truly selfless act to right her wrong,
00:03:11she would transform back into a human permanently.
00:03:14If she found him and failed,
00:03:16the curse would be rendered permanent
00:03:18and she would spend the rest of her days
00:03:20wandering the depths of the ocean.
00:03:22Thankfully for Daphne,
00:03:24she's arrived at a time of year
00:03:25that creates the perfect storm
00:03:27for both miracles
00:03:28and second chances.
00:03:30Second chances.
00:06:31Mr. Hunter?
00:06:33Mr. Hunter?
00:06:36Mr. Hunter, I was wondering if I could have a word with you for a moment?
00:06:40Mr. Hunter, I was wondering if I could have a word with you for a moment.
00:06:46What an unpleasant surprise.
00:06:48Is there a way to speak to the mayor of this charming little slice of heaven?
00:06:55Oh, you're looking rather than a woman who's about to turn this little slice of heaven into
00:07:0310 hotels and a golf course.
00:07:04It's a good attempt at being nice, though.
00:07:07It's very Christmassy of you.
00:07:09Christmassy?
00:07:09Christmassy isn't a word.
00:07:10Well, look, as much as I'd love to stick around and get an English lesson from you, I'd have
00:07:17to finish getting this tree ready for the fundraiser.
00:07:19Oh, have you, um...
00:07:21Have you thought about my offer?
00:07:23About as much as the last time I said no.
00:07:24Oh, Travis.
00:07:26You are as stubborn as ever.
00:07:32Paraclase.
00:07:33We're talking about the kind of money that could take care of you, your mother, and your
00:07:39brother for the rest of your lives.
00:07:41And I...
00:07:43And then you can buy any old rotten bar you like.
00:07:46Kind of like the old rotten bar that I have.
00:07:50After all this time.
00:08:00Pardon me, common townsperson.
00:08:03Do you know that man over there?
00:08:05Standing on that ship, talking to that angry-looking mortal woman.
00:08:09Uh, that's Travis Hunter, and the woman he's talking to is my boss.
00:08:13She's the mayor of Coco Bay.
00:08:16And I'm lucky enough to be her assistant.
00:08:18And by lucky, I mean cursed.
00:08:21I understand.
00:08:23I too am cursed.
00:08:25Oh, she seems terrible.
00:08:27The Coral Cantina is standing in the way of my real estate deal.
00:08:31Oh!
00:08:33I almost forgot.
00:08:34I brought you an early Christmas gift.
00:08:38Just make sure you look at the date on the paperwork.
00:08:40You have until the 24th to pay the loan.
00:08:43Otherwise...
00:08:45I'm gonna get what I want anyway.
00:08:48Travis, I'm offering you an opportunity to walk away with some real money.
00:08:53Vanessa would want you to do it.
00:08:56Don't.
00:08:57Don't go there with me.
00:08:58Whoa-ho-ho, check that out. Extra tacky, just the way you like it.
00:09:12Tacky?
00:09:14Listen, Travis Hunter has many things, but tacky is not one of them.
00:09:18Oh, no? Well, does cheesy work?
00:09:20Wow.
00:09:21You're corny. Oh, my gosh.
00:09:22My corndog.
00:09:23Okay, you're beating a dead reindeer.
00:09:25I will settle for cheesy, and we'll call it even.
00:09:30Fair enough.
00:09:32Are you sure that you want to do this?
00:09:34Do what?
00:09:35You know what I'm talking about.
00:09:37Of course I do. I'm your wife. I know everything.
00:09:39Vanessa, honey, I'm being serious.
00:09:41Yeah, and I'm being serious too. I just need everything to be normal right now.
00:09:44And our normal just happens to involve buckets of holiday cheese.
00:09:49But the doctor said that we-
00:09:50No.
00:09:51The doctor does not get to tell me how to spend my Christmas.
00:09:54Or take away the extreme pleasure that I get from forcing you to walk around wearing that ridiculous hat.
00:10:01You did create a Christmas monster, I'll give you that.
00:10:04Now, see, you were driving just fine in the cheesy lane. You swerved right over into Corny.
00:10:09What?
00:10:10Look, we have plenty of time to be serious later.
00:10:15But for now, can we just do what people have been doing for hundreds of years during the holidays?
00:10:19Pretend that everything's fine while our lives implode?
00:10:22Exactly.
00:10:25I love you, corndog.
00:10:27I love you.
00:10:30Everything's gonna be okay.
00:10:35Come on, let's go find some more lights. That's not gonna cut it.
00:10:38Oh, it's just Christmasy delicious.
00:10:51Merry Christmas, Tiffany.
00:10:53Oh, I'll show you Merry Christmas.
00:10:57Santa Claus is giving me exactly what I want this year.
00:11:01A bulldozer!
00:11:03And your bar is gonna be the first place it's used.
00:11:05Oh!
00:11:09Someone get me on this boat!
00:11:11Why do you look like you just fell off a dump truck?
00:11:14I do not understand what this dump truck is.
00:11:17But if you don't mind helping me, can you please tell me if Pericle-
00:11:21Travis.
00:11:23Does he live on this ship? Or does he have a homestead somewhere?
00:11:26He lives in town, but he spends most of his time at this awful bar he owns called the Coral Cantina.
00:11:30Just go straight up Main Street. You can't miss it.
00:11:34Excellent.
00:11:36I shall meet him there, and I shall correct what I have done.
00:11:40Thank you again, agitated servant girl. I wish you the best in ending your curse.
00:11:46For your information, I'm an executive assistant.
00:11:49I can't believe I'm walking up this hill on the heels. Come here.
00:11:54I don't know what you think you saw happening down by the boat just now, but believe me when I tell you I am in complete control of the situation.
00:12:04Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:05Travis was rambling about Christmas decorations, so I can only assume he's having that ridiculous fundraiser to save that dump.
00:12:10Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:12And it's still happening this afternoon?
00:12:14Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:16Are you capable of saying anything about that?
00:12:18Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:19Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:20Travis was rambling about Christmas decorations, so I can only assume he's having that ridiculous fundraiser to save that dump.
00:12:27Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:28And it's still happening this afternoon?
00:12:30Yes, Miss Devereaux.
00:12:32Are you capable of saying anything other than yes, Miss Devereaux?
00:12:36Yes, Miss. I mean, what would you like me to say?
00:12:39Well, that is a great question. Actually, it's what I would like you to do. When we get back to City Hall, I want you to call each and every business owner and tell them that if a single one of them attends that party or someone just donates a nickel to that man, I will shut them down and run them out of town faster than they can stuff a Christmas stocky.
00:13:05Wait.
00:13:07Caboche?
00:13:09I don't understand Spanish, Miss Devereaux.
00:13:12I can't even with you. Just get me back to the office, say to it you make those calls, or you won't have to worry about being on Santa's naughty list, because you're going to be on mine!
00:13:22Wait a minute. Actually, there is one place I want to stop. Maybe she will listen to reason.
00:13:31Let's go!
00:13:35Caboche?
00:13:36I probably won't.
00:13:37Let's go!
00:13:38I don't have to wait until this time with the people at a time.
00:13:39I won't let you just take a moment to stop—
00:13:48How shall I get to the place on?
00:13:53loo, all yeah
00:13:56How shall I take that place on top quartet nih,
00:14:01How shall we stay?
00:14:02Bo Hunter, I don't care if you're Travis' brother.
00:14:29I run this bar for him, and that means while you're here, you're mine.
00:14:32Have you found that box of ornaments yet?
00:14:35Your brother just called, and he finally got the tree unstuck, and he's on his way back
00:14:38here with it.
00:14:39I've got one here, Roxy!
00:14:44Oh dear.
00:14:45Seriously, Bo?
00:14:50Didn't you used to play soccer in high school?
00:14:53Aren't you guys supposed to be coordinated?
00:14:55Is Travis gonna kill me?
00:14:58Yes!
00:14:59Unless you clean this mess up and find something to put on the tree before he gets
00:15:02back here with it.
00:15:03Oh, and don't forget, the ice maker is broken again, so you're gonna have to pick up some
00:15:07of that for the party, and the shrimp, and your mom said to swing by the house and pick
00:15:10up the cakes.
00:15:11Okay?
00:15:12Are you listening to me?
00:15:15Hello?
00:15:16Oh, I'm sorry, miss.
00:15:21We're closed for a private fundraiser.
00:15:23But if you have some money you'd like to donate so we don't go out of business, then you're
00:15:27more than welcome to come.
00:15:29Unless of course you don't have any money, then please, just leave.
00:15:33And not to be rude, but why are you dressed like you just fell off a dump truck?
00:15:39You look just like a great warrior I met once.
00:15:43His name was Achilles.
00:15:44You mean the guy named after the heel?
00:15:48Bow hunter, so help me ice, shrimp, cakes, now!
00:15:52Yes, yes, okay, okay!
00:15:53Move!
00:15:54Now!
00:15:55Go!
00:15:56Swear I'm not gonna hop on this thing and fly off.
00:16:02He's a good guy.
00:16:03He means well.
00:16:04And he's cute.
00:16:05But I swear that man is like a bull in a china shop.
00:16:09My father took us to a place once where the performers danced on bulls.
00:16:13Oh, where'd you go?
00:16:15Texas?
00:16:16Crete.
00:16:17Would you mind please telling me what is this dump truck everyone keeps talking about?
00:16:22Girl, you are all types of strange.
00:16:25But I like strange.
00:16:27Sit down.
00:16:28I'm gonna make us a couple drinks while you tell me all about yourself.
00:16:32I clean up this mess.
00:16:34Will Travis be arriving soon?
00:16:35You know Travis?
00:16:36Sort of.
00:16:37It is kind of a complicated explanation.
00:16:40Honey, I'm a bartender.
00:16:43I eat complicated for breakfast.
00:16:45Sit down.
00:16:55What's wrong?
00:16:56vagat покуп John,
00:16:58For what?
00:16:59I'm afraid of.
00:17:00How do you need a dog walk to you?
00:17:08I'll try to down for the home in a while.
00:17:12All right,كم enjoy.
00:17:13Hi, Connie.
00:17:22You have a lot of nerve showing up at this house.
00:17:25Oh, I didn't come here to cause trouble.
00:17:26I just want to talk to you.
00:17:28Trouble is the only way you know how to communicate with people.
00:17:32I just came from Travis' boat.
00:17:36Wonderful.
00:17:37Oh, Connie, please listen to reason.
00:17:39I didn't come here to fight.
00:17:40Then what did you come here for?
00:17:41I need you to convince Travis to sell me the Coral Cantina.
00:17:48Well, that's going to happen as soon as I finish flying to the moon and back on my bicycle.
00:17:52Why does everyone in your family have to be so stubborn?
00:17:56I don't want to be your enemy.
00:18:00You don't want to be anyone's enemy as long as they give you what you want.
00:18:04Look around you. It's Christmas.
00:18:06It's a painful time for him.
00:18:09He knows he's in trouble.
00:18:11I know he's in trouble.
00:18:13Every time Travis looks at a Christmas tree, he thinks of Vanessa.
00:18:16The same season that meant everything to her is the same season that took her from us.
00:18:20But no matter what he's been through, he hasn't given up on Christmas because he feels it's the best way to honor her.
00:18:26Travis isn't fighting for the cantina out of pride.
00:18:28He's fighting because it was something that they built together and he loses that.
00:18:32And it means she's really gone and he's just not ready to accept that yet.
00:18:39It's been five years.
00:18:41Travis, you're really going to look me in the eyes and try to put an expiration date on grief?
00:18:46As if I don't know what it feels like to lose someone special, I know all too well.
00:18:51I didn't mean to have said...
00:18:52You didn't mean because you never think before words start pouring out of your mouth.
00:18:54Travis has ten days left.
00:18:59Ten days.
00:19:00And then the bank is going to call in his loan.
00:19:03I can make sure that your family has more money than they know what to do with in a lifetime.
00:19:07I know you have two mortgages on this house.
00:19:09Before you started driving this town into the ground, the Coral Cantina was a successful business.
00:19:17When Vanessa got sick, Travis sunk every last penny he had towards her treatment.
00:19:23And I was more than happy to help, which is why this house has two mortgages on it.
00:19:30Connie, I won't be in a position to help you much longer.
00:19:34However, Travis owes the bank $50,000.
00:19:42Thank you. I'm fully aware of how much he owes.
00:19:47Okay.
00:19:48I think it's best that I leave and let you think about all this.
00:19:55I do know that you're selling these cakes and cookies tonight for Travis's fundraiser.
00:20:00So, to prove to you that I am not completely heartless, I would like to buy this cute little Santa cookie right here.
00:20:08How much?
00:20:10$50,000.
00:20:13You must be a really good baker.
00:20:16You have no idea.
00:20:21Now get out of my house!
00:20:22Fine.
00:20:28Merry Christmas, Connie.
00:20:29Merry Christmas, Connie.
00:20:52Ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:21:08I can explain.
00:21:09Ah!
00:21:11Explain to me why in just a few short hours we're supposed to be throwing a party.
00:21:14Which, by the way, is going to determine whether or not we're all sleeping on a beach Christmas morning.
00:21:18because the bank's taken everything from us
00:21:20and nothing is ready?
00:21:22Or explain to me why there are broken Christmas ornaments
00:21:24all over the floor.
00:21:25Or explain to me why you're standing at a bar
00:21:28drinking with a woman who looks like
00:21:29she just fell off a dump truck
00:21:30and there's still work to be done.
00:21:32By all means, Roxy, please explain this to me.
00:21:36Okay.
00:21:37Normally, I don't swim in a big old pool of crazy,
00:21:41but you're gonna love this.
00:21:43Daphne here is an ancient Greek princess
00:21:46who apparently knew you in a former life.
00:21:48But you were someone different.
00:21:50You were in love with her, but she wasn't having it.
00:21:52And then you, and by you I mean
00:21:54past life you, went off to fight in the Trojan War.
00:21:58And then your mother was a witch.
00:22:00A sorceress.
00:22:01Sorceress.
00:22:02Your mother was a sorceress.
00:22:03And she was angry because on your way back
00:22:05from the Trojan War, past life you
00:22:07took the permanent slam.
00:22:09Then Mama cursed Blondie here
00:22:11and turned her into a...
00:22:13Hold for it.
00:22:14Wait.
00:22:17A mermaid.
00:22:18Now, the mermaid has been looking for you
00:22:22and by you I mean reincarnated version of you
00:22:24for 3,000 years.
00:22:26And even though she's an ancient Greek princess
00:22:28slash mermaid,
00:22:30she doesn't look great
00:22:31and she speaks perfect English
00:22:32and her hair doesn't smell like sushi.
00:22:34So I think we should put her to work
00:22:36because I need someone to help me serve the shrimp
00:22:38and you can't afford to hire anyone else.
00:22:40And your brother was supposed to be back here
00:22:41with that shrimp 30 minutes ago.
00:22:43I got the shrimp!
00:22:47Ah, Christmas cookies!
00:22:53Well, nothing says,
00:22:54please donate money to help save our bar
00:22:56like picking little pieces of glass
00:22:58out of the shrimp that we're serving on the floor.
00:23:01Five-second rule.
00:23:02Give me two seconds.
00:23:03That gives me three seconds.
00:23:05At least you got the basic math right.
00:23:08I'll help.
00:23:08That's a great idea.
00:23:09He's your brother.
00:23:10Well, you're the one who's in love with him, not me.
00:23:13Psst.
00:23:13I am deeply sorry for causing such a distraction.
00:23:19Your potion maker explained to me what a dump truck is
00:23:22while making me what she called a Mark or Rudy.
00:23:25And although I did not fall from one,
00:23:27forgive me because I do not normally dress like this.
00:23:29When I come to land,
00:23:30I have to clothe myself in whatever I can find.
00:23:33Oh!
00:23:34That's right!
00:23:35Because mermaids don't wear clothes underwater.
00:23:37I was raised in California
00:23:39and I've seen like a million mermaid movies
00:23:42and this, oldest gimmick in the book.
00:23:44What is a movie?
00:23:45Okay.
00:23:46That's it.
00:23:53Listen, this has been an extremely long day for me
00:23:56and I'm under an insane amount of pressure
00:23:58to make sure this day goes right.
00:24:00So let's just cut through all of the bedtime story fluff
00:24:03and tell me who you really are.
00:24:05Did Tiffany put you up to this?
00:24:06Is this some kind of a stunt to make me look insane?
00:24:09You are not insane.
00:24:10You were once one of the wisest men I had ever met.
00:24:14You were on your way to being a great philosopher
00:24:16until I hurt you.
00:24:18Okay.
00:24:19So I'm going to go with this for a second.
00:24:22How did you hurt me again?
00:24:23You were in love with me.
00:24:25Oh.
00:24:25But because you were a commoner,
00:24:27I did not allow myself to get to know you,
00:24:28which is why I never felt the same way.
00:24:31And past life me didn't like that?
00:24:34You were devastated,
00:24:36which is why you went off to the war.
00:24:37Trojan War?
00:24:38Yes.
00:24:38So let's just say that I'm willing to overlook the fact
00:24:42that old me was slightly overdramatic
00:24:45and suffered from unrealistic relationship goals.
00:24:47Now let's get back to the mermaid thing.
00:24:49Do you honestly believe that you're half-fish?
00:24:52My curse is enduring and permanent
00:24:57until I write the wrong I did to you.
00:24:59And I only have ten days to do it.
00:25:03So is that a yes?
00:25:04I'm sorry.
00:25:05Everything you're saying is so confusing.
00:25:07It's like I'm watching Hamlet right now.
00:25:08Yes, Travis.
00:25:09I am a mermaid.
00:25:10Can you have a seat?
00:25:13Please, sit for me.
00:25:15Can I take your boots off?
00:25:17Because I want to prove to you once and for all
00:25:19that you're the crazy one, not me.
00:25:21Make sure you get every last piece of shrimp.
00:25:23So I'm going to get some water.
00:25:25I'll rinse them off.
00:25:26Nobody will be able to tell the difference.
00:25:27And throw it on your feet.
00:25:28I don't care if the dirt sticks.
00:25:29Let's just get most of the glitter off.
00:25:31So that's it?
00:25:40No mermaid?
00:25:41No mermaid.
00:25:43No flopping around with the tail.
00:25:46See, I knew that Tiffany put you up to this.
00:25:47Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:25:49You actually thought that she might be a mermaid?
00:25:52Look, I know you've been stressed, but...
00:25:54I got the shrimp.
00:25:55I put them in salt water to keep them fresh.
00:25:58What is the man with you?
00:25:59You cannot be serving that shrimp to people.
00:26:02Well, then why can't you just walk like a normal human being?
00:26:06You're always running around like you're trying to score a goal.
00:26:09Uh, guys?
00:26:18Salt water.
00:26:19I was trying to tell you that only salt water
00:26:21turns me back into a mermaid.
00:26:24I think I should go get the ice.
00:26:25I think I finally snapped.
00:26:27I still don't think she looks Greek.
00:26:29You guys, I totally forgot that Chuck is coming by to take measurements.
00:26:34Who's Chuck?
00:26:35The bankrupt!
00:26:36Why don't we just tell him the truth?
00:26:38Oh, that's a great idea, little brother.
00:26:40What am I going to say?
00:26:41Hey, Chuck, I realize the bank is currently trying to dismember my life.
00:26:44In the meantime, why don't you meet the mermaid
00:26:45who's been stalking me for 3,000 years?
00:26:48Good point.
00:26:50What are we going to do with her?
00:26:50We can't just leave her here.
00:26:52He's supposed to do a whole property inspection.
00:26:54All right, let me think.
00:26:54Bo, is your car still on the side?
00:26:57Yeah, I got to swing by Mom's and pick up the cakes for later.
00:26:59Great.
00:26:59You're going to drop something off while you're at it.
00:27:12Chuck!
00:27:13Travis!
00:27:14What are you doing here, man?
00:27:18Oh, wait.
00:27:19Oh, careful.
00:27:20Okay.
00:27:20Okay.
00:27:21I wish it were under better circumstances.
00:27:23No, no, no.
00:27:24It's totally cool.
00:27:25You need to take some measurements just in case,
00:27:27and I need to clean up this mess.
00:27:31Push.
00:27:31Push.
00:27:31Push.
00:27:33Travis, I did not come here to take measurements.
00:27:36Oh, God.
00:27:38You got my mouth.
00:27:39Oh, God.
00:27:40There's been a change.
00:27:41Can you take it from here?
00:28:01I got it.
00:28:02Please do not forget the cakes.
00:28:04Don't forget about the Christmas tree.
00:28:05I am so sorry I broke all the ornaments.
00:28:07It's fine.
00:28:08I'll figure something out.
00:28:09Hey, Roxy?
00:28:11Yeah?
00:28:12I know it's early, but the way things are going,
00:28:14I just didn't want to forget to give this to you.
00:28:19Go!
00:28:20You're fast when you're supposed to be slow,
00:28:21and slow when you're supposed to be fast.
00:28:23Thank you for the margaruti potion maker.
00:28:25You're welcome, and it's a margarita.
00:28:27And you, Miss Mermaid, are all types of strange.
00:28:30But I still like strange.
00:28:31The board of directors held an emergency meeting today.
00:28:43Okay.
00:28:44They're calling in the loan early.
00:28:45What?
00:28:46You can't be serious.
00:28:47They can't do that.
00:28:49They can.
00:28:50And they are.
00:28:51Hi, Roxy.
00:28:52Hey, Chuck.
00:28:53What's with a sudden change of heart?
00:28:54Ah, wait.
00:28:56Let me guess.
00:28:57Our lovely mayor is the one who lit the Yule log.
00:28:59I don't know what to say, Travis.
00:29:01Sorry, man.
00:29:02You said enough.
00:29:03How much time do I have?
00:29:0411 a.m. tomorrow.
00:29:06I know these are probably for the party tonight,
00:29:08but I had to skip lunch today, and I am starving.
00:29:11Do you mind if I grab a few?
00:29:12Anything for you, Chuck.
00:29:15Now, listen.
00:29:16I do not want you kids to worry about anything.
00:29:20You've been through this kind of thing before.
00:29:22You always end up landing on your feet.
00:29:25I want you to just relax and have a terrific party.
00:29:35Merry Christmas.
00:30:02Hey, honey.
00:30:03How's it going over there?
00:30:04Getting everything done?
00:30:06It was nice meeting you.
00:30:07Enjoy our pool.
00:30:10Oh, and if you aren't too busy,
00:30:12would you mind explaining to me
00:30:13why your brother is putting a mermaid in my swimming pool?
00:30:16Mom, I promise I will explain everything.
00:30:21You're darn right you are.
00:30:23Your father was alive.
00:30:24I'm going to hurry up and get this place done,
00:30:26and I will swing by as soon as it's over.
00:30:29She's fine.
00:30:30She's not going to give you any trouble.
00:30:31She's actually pretty nice.
00:30:34Travis, honey, hold on for one second.
00:30:38Hold this.
00:30:43Go bring this to your friend.
00:30:44She looks hungry.
00:30:45Mom, she's a mermaid, not a cat.
00:30:47I'm sorry.
00:30:48I didn't realize the Atlantic Ocean was famous for its ribeye steaks.
00:30:51Don't sass me!
00:30:52Go feed the mermaid!
00:30:53Yes, ma'am.
00:30:55I sound like a crazy person.
00:30:59I really want to be there for you tonight, honey,
00:31:01but I don't think we should leave your fish lady alone at the pool.
00:31:04She's awfully pretty, Travis.
00:31:11Goodbye, Mom.
00:31:12Love you.
00:31:16So, how's she handling it?
00:31:19Surprisingly well.
00:31:21Considering a magically cursed princess is swimming in her backyard right now.
00:31:25You know, it's a really good thing she had that saltwater pool put in a couple years ago,
00:31:29because now at least one of us has a place to live.
00:31:34Come on!
00:31:35We can't give up now.
00:31:37Everyone in this town loves you.
00:31:39I'm pretty sure there's not $50,000 worth of shrimp in that pan over there.
00:31:42I get it.
00:31:43I get it.
00:31:44But we can't give up now.
00:31:45If Santa can deliver all of those presents in one night,
00:31:48then we can find a way to raise this money.
00:31:51You never give up, do you?
00:31:52No.
00:31:53And neither do you.
00:31:54And that's why we've been friends since we were kids.
00:31:56Because no matter what,
00:31:58we always find a way to cover each other's backs.
00:32:01Now go on,
00:32:02and let's make this bar sparkle.
00:34:12I am glad you finally came outside.
00:34:29I feel like you have been avoiding me ever since bro brought me here.
00:34:32I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:34:34It isn't every day your son brings home a mermaid.
00:34:38To be fair,
00:34:39I am not a mermaid.
00:34:41I'm a princess.
00:34:44You might want to tell that to your tale.
00:34:46That thing has a mind of its own.
00:34:48I know this must be overwhelming for you.
00:34:53Do you mind if I ask you a question?
00:34:57Of course.
00:34:58Christmas is one of those times of year when things get especially magical and mysterious.
00:35:10And it doesn't get more magical and mysterious than you.
00:35:14Everyone keeps talking about this Christmas.
00:35:20Well, it's hard to explain.
00:35:24It's more than just a time of year.
00:35:27It runs deeper than decorations and sweets.
00:35:29It's a feeling.
00:35:31It surrounds us with warmth and joy.
00:35:35It helps us to forgive the past and look towards the future.
00:35:40Christmas is a way of believing in the unbelievable.
00:35:43So it is also about forgiveness?
00:35:47I guess you just answered my question.
00:35:50That's why you're here, isn't it?
00:35:53You've done something that you need to be forgiven for?
00:36:03Thousands of years ago,
00:36:04I knew your son.
00:36:07Not like you know him, but
00:36:09the essence of him.
00:36:13I was a very different person then.
00:36:17I was someone that I would never wish to be around now.
00:36:22In life,
00:36:24forgiving ourselves is as important
00:36:26as forgiving others.
00:36:29We have to accept the past,
00:36:32appreciate it for the gifts it has given us,
00:36:34and look toward the future.
00:36:36Ever since Travis lost his wife,
00:36:39I've tried to encourage him to keep his chin up
00:36:41because life,
00:36:42life always has a way of working itself out.
00:36:46Where did he lose her?
00:36:48Do you have guards that could go in search of her?
00:36:51You really are 3,000 years old, aren't you?
00:36:56What I mean by lost
00:36:57is that she died.
00:37:00Travis' wife had cancer.
00:37:03What is cancer?
00:37:04It's an ugly kind of sickness
00:37:07that can take people away from the ones they love.
00:37:11Not always.
00:37:15Many people can beat it,
00:37:17and Lord knows Vanessa tried her hardest,
00:37:20but her body just gave out.
00:37:23It was the only time I've ever seen my son cry.
00:37:27Travis has always had a deep capacity to love,
00:37:29at least when I knew when he did.
00:37:33I just never understood
00:37:34how powerful that love could be until now.
00:37:38It's easy to get confused
00:37:39by all the things in life
00:37:40that don't really matter.
00:37:44At the end of the day,
00:37:45all we have is each other.
00:37:46So I say when it comes to
00:37:49making up for his screw-ups,
00:37:52better late than ever.
00:37:56You are trouble.
00:38:01You're very perceptive.
00:38:03I have not been in this modern world for long,
00:38:06but from what I have seen,
00:38:08I know the look of despair.
00:38:14Travis took out a loan
00:38:15while Vanessa was sick
00:38:16to pay for her treatment.
00:38:18When that wasn't enough,
00:38:20I took out two mortgages
00:38:21on this house to help them.
00:38:25Now the bank is calling in the loan.
00:38:30They want their money back
00:38:31now.
00:38:39We're about to lose everything.
00:38:42That's why Travis isn't here.
00:38:43He's at the bar trying to raise money
00:38:45to pay back the loans.
00:38:49An act of selflessness.
00:38:55In your world,
00:38:57does gold still count as money?
00:39:00Of course.
00:39:00Can you take me to the ocean?
00:39:05I think I have a way to help Travis.
00:39:08Really?
00:39:08Really.
00:39:11Yes.
00:39:13I'll get you down some clothes, okay?
00:39:16Okay.
00:39:16Okay.
00:39:16Okay.
00:39:17I'm going to do it.
00:39:18I'm going to do it.
00:39:18I'm going to do it.
00:39:22I'm going to do it.
00:39:22I'm going to do it.
00:39:22I'm going to do it.
00:39:23I'm going to do it.
00:39:23I'm going to do it.
00:39:23I'm going to do it.
00:39:23I'm going to do it.
00:39:24I'm going to do it.
00:39:24I'm going to do it.
00:39:25I'm going to do it.
00:39:25I'm going to do it.
00:39:26I'm going to do it.
00:39:26I'm going to do it.
00:39:26I'm going to do it.
00:39:27I'm going to do it.
00:39:59Of course Beau gets a flat tire tonight.
00:40:17Tonight of all nights.
00:40:20It's not his fault he got a flat tire.
00:40:22And besides, there's not enough cake in the world to be that alone.
00:40:26It's not about the cake, and you know it.
00:40:28Roxy, where are friends?
00:40:30Something must have happened.
00:40:32Hey Chuck.
00:40:32Mayor Devereaux is what happened.
00:40:35I heard from about ten different people in town that she had her assistant phone them,
00:40:39threatening to call in their loans if they helped you.
00:40:41Then why are you here?
00:40:43Because you're a good guy.
00:40:45And it's Christmas.
00:40:46And I wanted to let you know, I think there might be something wrong with your shrimp.
00:41:02Merry Christmas, everyone!
00:41:03And by everyone, I of course mean you, Travis, Roxy, and Glitter Lips here from the bank.
00:41:20How dare you!
00:41:22And of course, our favorite local celebrity, the only surviving Belch brother.
00:41:31Someone get that man a candy cane.
00:41:34What are you doing here, Tiffany?
00:41:35Well, I was thinking that in the spirit of Christmas, although it goes against my better judgment after the way you treated me earlier,
00:41:44I would come here one last time and offer you the money to sell me this place so that you could have a chance at a future.
00:41:52I have $25,000.
00:41:54Wait, how is that possible?
00:41:57I sold the boat.
00:41:59Still not enough money.
00:42:01You love that boat.
00:42:04I love my family more.
00:42:08Why is it when I look at this tree, I suddenly crave a baked potato?
00:42:13It's because of the tinfoil ornaments, Miss Devereaux.
00:42:15I know, Maya.
00:42:18It's called kicking people when they're down by asking a rhetorical question.
00:42:23No disrespect, Miss Devereaux, but that doesn't seem very Christmassy.
00:42:29Would everyone please stop saying that word?
00:42:33Christmassy is not a word!
00:42:35Come here!
00:42:36I got the prize!
00:42:37I got the cake!
00:42:45Oh, Travis, the look on your face is worth its weight in gold.
00:43:02Did someone say gold?
00:43:11Moneylender, whose lips sparkle like rays of the sun,
00:43:14is this what you need so the angry-looking mortal woman
00:43:16and the agitated servant girl will leave Travis alone?
00:43:21I'm an executive assistant.
00:43:24I quit!
00:43:25I quit!
00:43:44This can't possibly be real.
00:43:49Not only is it real,
00:43:52it's worth a fortune!
00:43:54Enough to pay off the loan?
00:43:56The loan, both mortgages,
00:43:59and the debt of the entire town!
00:44:04Do it.
00:44:05I want to bring Coco Bay back to where it used to be,
00:44:08where no one will ever have to worry about losing their business again.
00:44:10Okay, Travis,
00:44:15you won this battle,
00:44:17but I promise you,
00:44:18I'm gonna win the war.
00:44:21You know normal people in real life
00:44:22don't really talk like that, right?
00:44:24Sound like a crazy character in a soap opera.
00:44:27You've all just made yourselves a very powerful enemy.
00:44:35I'm taking this to the bank tomorrow.
00:44:36What are you doing here?
00:44:57Bye.
00:44:58Bye.
00:45:00Bye.
00:45:01Bye.
00:45:02Bye.
00:45:06Bye.
00:45:06Wait, Daph, wait, wait, you're just going to leave without saying goodbye?
00:45:15You seem so happy, I did not wish to interrupt your joy.
00:45:18Wait, no, no, what are you talking about? None of this would be happening without you.
00:45:22Look, I love my mother, but I'm pretty sure she did not have that sunken treasure under her bed.
00:45:27It is just gold, Travis. The ocean is filled with it.
00:45:30No, it's not just gold. You saved my business, and you helped my family. You helped me.
00:45:35You did not have to do that.
00:45:37I most certainly did. That is the entire reason I'm here.
00:45:41I don't understand.
00:45:44Come with me, and I'll show you.
00:45:50Wait, wait, Daphne, wait. I've only known you for a day.
00:45:53Like, less than a day.
00:45:55And you've already turned my whole world upside down in the best way possible.
00:45:59But I don't know what you came here to do. You've got to tell me.
00:46:03Like I said before, I hurt you, and I had to make things right.
00:46:09Okay, so you say that you hurt me, or the me of the past.
00:46:14But I don't know that guy.
00:46:15I know this guy, the one standing right here in front of you.
00:46:18And whoever or whatever you were back then, I can't judge you for that because I wasn't there.
00:46:26So am I, the me now, allowed to forgive you on behalf of the me of the past,
00:46:34because technically we're the same person, and I'm totally willing to do that.
00:46:38I'm sorry, this is so confusing. I'm getting a migraine.
00:46:40Goodbye, Travis.
00:46:42I wish you all the happiness in the world.
00:46:45Why? Why? What is this?
00:47:02You promised! You promised me!
00:47:07I did what you asked me to do!
00:47:09I learned my lesson!
00:47:11Why? Why am I still like this?
00:47:16Hey, hey.
00:47:18I don't, I don't know what was supposed to happen just now,
00:47:23but I'm sure it can wait for another day, okay?
00:47:26It's been a long one, and I'm sure you're exhausted,
00:47:29so come back to the house.
00:47:31Stay as long as you want, or at least until we figure this out, okay?
00:47:34All right, it's the least I can do.
00:47:37You ready? All right, here we go.
00:47:53Crazy day, huh?
00:47:55I guess so.
00:47:57You okay?
00:47:59I'm fine.
00:47:59Look, I know today was a hectic day,
00:48:07and you tried your best, and I guess I...
00:48:08Aren't you going to say anything about the card I gave you earlier?
00:48:11The card? What card?
00:48:13Oh, the card.
00:48:15Um, I kind of haven't had a chance yet,
00:48:18but, I mean, I'm sure it's around here somewhere.
00:48:20I'll read it when I find it.
00:48:22Don't worry about it.
00:48:23It's nothing special.
00:48:26Good night, Roxy.
00:48:27Good night.
00:48:28Good night, Bo.
00:48:35Promise I'll read it when I find it.
00:48:36Good night.
00:48:58Knock, knock.
00:49:25Good morning.
00:49:28Good morning.
00:49:29How did you sleep?
00:49:30Fine, I suppose.
00:49:32I'm so used to living in the ocean that I always forget when I return.
00:49:37Things aren't constantly moving like they are underwater.
00:49:40I bet.
00:49:41So I just got back from the bank,
00:49:43and you should have seen the look on people's faces
00:49:45when I dropped that treasure chest on the counter.
00:49:48You've made me the richest man in Cocoa Bay.
00:49:50And that, my flippered friend, you deserve a nice hot cup of Cocoa.
00:49:56Cocoa?
00:49:57Cocoa!
00:49:58Hot chocolate?
00:49:59Come on, sit down.
00:50:01I mean, you've been on land before, right?
00:50:03You must have had Cocoa.
00:50:05I even put marshmallows in them.
00:50:06A lot of marshmallows.
00:50:07Well, I've never been on land in this region during this time,
00:50:11so your annual rituals are somewhat confusing to me.
00:50:15I do enjoy the colors, however,
00:50:17and you were all so excited about this Christmas event
00:50:19that I am more than happy to try a marshmallow.
00:50:22Well, here.
00:50:23It's actually called a marshmallow.
00:50:25Not a fan?
00:50:35Not really.
00:50:37Sorry.
00:50:40The texture of a jellyfish?
00:50:42But not as salty.
00:50:45Um, I have an idea.
00:50:47I would love to take you to town today.
00:50:51I'd really rather not.
00:50:52Oh, no, come on.
00:50:53It'll be fun.
00:50:54We could go Christmas shopping,
00:50:56uh, get you some more clothes for while you're here.
00:50:59I suppose there's no harm in exploring for a short while.
00:51:03Yes!
00:51:04I truly thought my act of selflessness last night
00:51:06would have changed things,
00:51:07but apparently I was wrong.
00:51:09Selflessness?
00:51:11How is that selfless?
00:51:14I don't know.
00:51:15I just thought that...
00:51:16Look, what you did for me last night,
00:51:19it's made me the happiest I've been in years.
00:51:22But it's more...
00:51:24More kindness or generosity rather than selfless.
00:51:30Both very fine Christmas qualities, by the way.
00:51:34You were right.
00:51:36That wasn't selfless at all.
00:51:38I will put on the robes your mother provided for me
00:51:40and I shall be ready momentarily.
00:51:41Okay.
00:51:41There's no time and much to be done.
00:51:43Uh, can we not have a weird date today?
00:51:45Day!
00:51:46Absolutely.
00:51:47And when I am ready,
00:51:48you may explain to me what weird is.
00:51:54Really, Travis?
00:51:55You had to say date?
00:51:57Date, huh?
00:51:58No, Mom, do not start with me.
00:52:00Travis Hunter,
00:52:01do you honestly think I can't hear what goes on
00:52:03in every square inch of my own house?
00:52:05It just slipped out.
00:52:06I didn't mean it.
00:52:07So what if it did?
00:52:08I just don't want to be...
00:52:10Insensitive,
00:52:11disrespectful,
00:52:13tarnished the memory of the love you once had.
00:52:15Son, I love you.
00:52:17But having feelings for someone else
00:52:18doesn't mean you've forgotten about Vanessa.
00:52:21She would have wanted you to be happy.
00:52:27Mom, I've only known this woman
00:52:29for a little bit more than a day.
00:52:31And I don't know how I feel about her,
00:52:33but there's something that draws me to her.
00:52:35Well, then take her out and see what happens.
00:52:39Nothing fishy about falling in love.
00:52:41Oh, you're a laugh riot, aren't you?
00:52:43With the puns.
00:52:44By the way, what's up with the dress?
00:52:46She's a princess.
00:52:47Someone has to make this family look good.
00:52:55Daphne!
00:52:56You look as pretty as a picture.
00:52:59Isn't she, Travis?
00:53:00Absolutely.
00:53:01You look beautiful.
00:53:05I hope you like the dress I got you.
00:53:08It is truly a lovely garnet.
00:53:10Thank you, Connie.
00:53:10I can't thank you enough for your hospitality.
00:53:13You ready to go?
00:53:14Yes.
00:53:17I'll find you two.
00:53:19And don't forget to come home early enough
00:53:20so you can help with the finishing touches on the tree.
00:53:27All right, Christmas magic.
00:53:28Get down here and smack my boy upside his head.
00:53:33He needs this.
00:53:35It's time.
00:53:53Yeah.
00:55:24I knew it.
00:55:54Okay, Bo, I finally found you a little letter.
00:56:06Roxy, you're loud, you're bossy, and you kind of scare me, I know.
00:56:17But I also think you're smart, hardworking, beautiful, aw.
00:56:24And I knew you were someone special since the first moment you threw a dirty dishrag at my face.
00:56:32I was going to wait until Valentine's Day, but February is too long to wait to tell someone you love them.
00:56:42When you figure it out in December, what do you think?
00:56:49Merry Christmas, Bo.
00:56:51Oh, yeah.
00:56:59Oh, yeah.
00:57:01Oh, yeah.
00:57:02Oh, yeah.
00:57:03Oh, yeah.
00:57:05You're back.
00:57:23You two have fun?
00:57:24We could really use some help with this tree.
00:57:26Oh, it was wonderful.
00:57:28We rode bicycles and ate ice cream and even met Satan.
00:57:32Santa.
00:57:33Ah.
00:57:33Wow, Travis.
00:57:35If you two were in the second grade, that would have been the best date ever.
00:57:39Why are you breaking candy, Kim?
00:57:40I don't want to talk about it.
00:57:42I do.
00:57:43Roxy, what are you doing here?
00:57:46Do you want to tell me what this is?
00:57:48I wasn't trying to make you mad.
00:57:50I swear.
00:57:51I just thought if I wrote it down, it would mean more.
00:57:55I'm not good with my words the way you are, and I just didn't want to say the wrong thing, and I...
00:58:01It's about time.
00:58:07I'll see.
00:58:10Good call on the plastic ornaments.
00:58:13Every year.
00:58:14That reminds me.
00:58:21This is for you.
00:58:33Merry Christmas, Daphne.
00:58:41May I hang it on the tree?
00:58:42I hope so.
00:58:43They don't decorate themselves, you know.
00:58:45It's too pretty for a hook.
00:58:46Let me get you some ribbon.
00:58:51I could have sworn I had some ribbon left over in this box.
00:58:55I didn't see anything when I was going through the boxes earlier.
00:58:59There was a shop that had ribbon in town earlier.
00:59:01May I go get it for the tree?
00:59:04I will be fine.
00:59:05I promise.
00:59:06I really want to help, and I want to try doing something on my own on land.
00:59:11You know what?
00:59:11That's fair.
00:59:12No problem.
00:59:13Let me get you some money.
00:59:14Okay.
00:59:21Do you know where you're going?
00:59:29Travis, I promise you, I have spent centuries in the ocean.
00:59:32I probably have a better sense of direction than you do.
00:59:34Oh, okay.
00:59:34Okay.
00:59:35Here.
00:59:35Take this.
00:59:36Please be safe, and come home quickly.
00:59:39Home?
00:59:40I'm so sorry, didn't that sound bad.
00:59:43Not at all.
00:59:43I'm so sorry, didn't that sound bad.
01:00:13Need a ride?
01:00:22That's you.
01:00:24Up in.
01:00:32Listen, I know I got heated the other night and said some things I shouldn't have.
01:00:40But I'm over that now.
01:00:41So let's go see my office.
01:00:58Has he told you about his wife?
01:01:02I know he does not like to talk about it much.
01:01:04But she's no longer in this realm.
01:01:06Did he tell you that before he married Vanessa, he was in love with me?
01:01:10With you?
01:01:12Was that so hard to believe?
01:01:14Very hard to believe.
01:01:17We were much younger.
01:01:20Travis was a handsome believer, and I came from a powerful family who had higher expectations
01:01:26of who I should be with.
01:01:30I can relate to that more than you might imagine.
01:01:41I was cruel to him.
01:01:42I said some things I probably shouldn't have, but I was trying to drive him away.
01:01:48And it worked.
01:01:54And that is when he met his wife.
01:01:59The sainted Vanessa who could do no wrong.
01:02:03But they were happy together.
01:02:04Oh, probably the happiest couple Coco Bay has ever seen.
01:02:08And then they saved the monies, buy the coral cantina, and they lived happily ever after.
01:02:12Until she got sick.
01:02:22Travis asked to borrow the money to help pay for her treatment.
01:02:27And I turned him down.
01:02:31So you did not want him?
01:02:33You could not stand the thought of him with another?
01:02:38When Vanessa passed, I felt the guilt crash over me like a wave.
01:02:42And that's when I found out from the bank how much debt he was in.
01:02:48And I offered four times the value to buy him out.
01:02:52I was cruel like you once.
01:02:55It took me centuries to understand that our actions affect the lives of others.
01:03:00At least you tried to make amends.
01:03:03Oh, honey, please.
01:03:04I still want to tear that place down to its foundation, but that is not the point.
01:03:08Then what is the point?
01:03:09The point is, Travis is still a dreamer.
01:03:14He still believes in miracles.
01:03:15He still believes in love.
01:03:18I don't know who you are.
01:03:21Or where you came from.
01:03:23But yesterday on the street, I saw the way he looked at you.
01:03:26Exactly the same way he looked at Vanessa.
01:03:29I am not trying to replace his wife.
01:03:34You could have fooled me.
01:03:36You think I don't know love when I see it?
01:03:38My feelings are none of your concern.
01:03:49But this town is.
01:03:51And I'll fill you in on a little secret.
01:03:53Your cutesy treasure trick might have saved the coral cantina,
01:03:56but everyone was so busy dripping with Christmas miracles of the present,
01:04:00no one bothered to think about the ghost of Christmas future.
01:04:02There's a spirit of the dead that possesses your seasonal ritual?
01:04:08You are so strange.
01:04:12I've heard that many times since arriving.
01:04:15I think it started when I became a mermaid.
01:04:16Right.
01:04:22And I'm secretly married to Santa Claus.
01:04:25Okay, let's get back to the point.
01:04:28I literally own every building surrounding the coral cantina,
01:04:31and nothing is going to stop me from tearing them down.
01:04:35In fact, I'm going to make that street a war zone.
01:04:38Travis thought his business was bad before he ain't seen nothing yet,
01:04:41and all you did was buy him some time.
01:04:43Why are you doing this to him?
01:04:46Isn't it obvious?
01:04:48Because I'm the bad guy.
01:04:50Whoop!
01:04:52You're a girl, are you not?
01:04:55It's a figure of speech.
01:04:57Okay.
01:05:00I am willing to cut you a deal.
01:05:02Leave town now, go back to wherever it is you came from,
01:05:06walk away from Travis, and I won't obliterate his world.
01:05:10But I still have time left.
01:05:12No, you're wrong. You don't have any time.
01:05:13It's either you or Travis.
01:05:16It will never be you and Travis.
01:05:21I have my team standing by to demo those buildings starting tomorrow.
01:05:26Once I am gone,
01:05:33my request is that you will be good to Travis.
01:05:38Your love for him is quite strong.
01:05:42I don't love Travis.
01:05:45Now it is you who are trying to fool me.
01:05:47She just went to the store for some ribbons.
01:06:02She should be back by now.
01:06:04That's why Roxy and Bo are out looking for her.
01:06:05Well, I should be the one looking for her.
01:06:08You really care for this girl, don't you?
01:06:10I know you must think I'm probably crazy.
01:06:12Who said anything about crazy?
01:06:13The first time I met your father, I knew I loved him before he said hello.
01:06:18The heart is a funny thing.
01:06:21I don't think any of this was an accident.
01:06:24Daphne was meant to come to Cocoa Bay because something somewhere out there
01:06:28knew exactly what you needed for Christmas.
01:06:31Thanks, Mom.
01:06:37So what are you waiting for?
01:06:38What am I waiting for?
01:06:40You can wait for Roxy and Bo.
01:06:42Get out there and bring home that pretty fish lady.
01:06:44Yeah, I got it.
01:06:44My pool feels empty without her swimming in it.
01:06:46I'm out of here.
01:06:47Shoo!
01:06:49We saw her!
01:06:50If anyone's looking for a last-minute Christmas present for me,
01:07:00I sure could use a better vacuum cleaner.
01:07:03Wait, you saw her?
01:07:05Daphne, where is she?
01:07:07Why isn't she with you?
01:07:08She was walking into Tiffany's office building with Tiffany.
01:07:12With Tiffany?
01:07:13She looked really upset.
01:07:14That's why we got back here as quickly as we could to get you.
01:07:16She's up to something, Travis.
01:07:18I swear that woman's got enough coal in her stocking
01:07:20to power half of California for a month.
01:07:22Wait.
01:07:24Do we still use coal for power?
01:07:26What are you waiting for, Travis?
01:07:28You go get the girl.
01:07:28I'm going to stay here and explain to Bo how sarcasm works.
01:07:32Okay, thank you.
01:07:33I love you all.
01:07:36You, go pick up the cookies.
01:07:38Yes, ma'am.
01:07:48Where is she?
01:08:11Nice to see you, too.
01:08:12What did you do?
01:08:13This attitude isn't very Christmassy of you.
01:08:17I thought Christmassy wasn't a word.
01:08:20You're up to something.
01:08:22What?
01:08:24Well, maybe I've had a change of heart.
01:08:27Maybe I've been thinking about things
01:08:29and I decided to make some changes.
01:08:33You know, to get in the spirit of things.
01:08:35Tiffany, just answer the question.
01:08:36Seriously?
01:08:46Answer the question.
01:08:47What did you say to Daphne?
01:08:49Oh.
01:08:50I simply explained that Coco Bay...
01:08:53What?
01:08:53Wait, wait, wait.
01:08:56I meant to do that.
01:08:59That Coco Bay would be better off
01:09:02if she just went away.
01:09:04Why would you do that?
01:09:07Because I've known you longer
01:09:08and I know what's best for you.
01:09:09You know what's best for me?
01:09:12What, did three ghosts visit you
01:09:13in the middle of the night?
01:09:14You've done the exact opposite
01:09:16of what is best for me
01:09:17since the day we met.
01:09:25Well, I want to use this Christmas
01:09:28as an opportunity to start over.
01:09:32So do I.
01:09:34With Daphne.
01:09:36Tiffany, look.
01:09:37I don't know why you are the way you are.
01:09:40Or why you do the things that you do.
01:09:43So I don't expect you to understand.
01:09:46But I have not felt this alive
01:09:48since before I lost Vanessa.
01:09:52And if it's true what they say
01:09:53that miracles come at Christmas time,
01:09:56well then Daphne is my miracle.
01:09:57But you barely know her.
01:10:00Travis, I think something's wrong with her.
01:10:02She told me she's a mermaid.
01:10:03I'll give you the coral capsida.
01:10:04What?
01:10:05You heard me.
01:10:06Just draw up the papers.
01:10:08Just tell me where Daphne is
01:10:09and I will give you the bar.
01:10:10You're serious, aren't you?
01:10:21I've never been more serious about anything.
01:10:23Well, what about Vanessa?
01:10:30Vanessa would want me to be happy.
01:10:34She was the love of my life.
01:10:35And I get to take those memories with me
01:10:37for as long as I live.
01:10:40But I'm so sick and tired
01:10:42of every day being a fight and a struggle.
01:10:45I just, I want to be happy again.
01:10:47And there's a part of me that believes
01:10:49that Vanessa somewhere sent Daphne to me.
01:10:52And I just want a small part of you to appreciate that.
01:11:01You'd really give up the bar for this girl?
01:11:04Yes, I would.
01:11:06It's time.
01:11:06Well, I told her
01:11:11that if she stayed,
01:11:15I would demo all the buildings
01:11:18surrounding your bar
01:11:19and put you out of business.
01:11:22And then she commented about how I loved you.
01:11:26Right, she said that you loved me?
01:11:27Uh, don't worry about it.
01:11:28Let's, let's, uh, it's not important.
01:11:30It's not important.
01:11:31What is important
01:11:37is that I should have
01:11:41helped you when Vanessa got sick.
01:11:44I should have been kinder.
01:11:47Should have done a lot of things differently.
01:11:50Just tell me where she is.
01:11:53And the bar is yours.
01:11:57She didn't tell me where she was going.
01:11:59I just saw her walking
01:12:00towards that stretch of the beach
01:12:02near the cantina.
01:12:04I don't have a lot of time.
01:12:06Just get the paperwork
01:12:07and I'll sign it in the morning.
01:12:09Travis!
01:12:09Wait.
01:12:12You can keep your bar.
01:12:16Really?
01:12:18Really.
01:12:19Merry Christmas.
01:12:23She really is a mermaid, by the way.
01:12:25Merry Christmas!
01:12:27Crazy.
01:12:30Come on, baby!
01:12:46Come on, baby!
01:12:52Hey, corndog.
01:13:00I'm losing my mind.
01:13:04Two days I've gone from mermaids to ghosts.
01:13:06You're not losing your mind.
01:13:09Is this a sign?
01:13:11The car's not starting
01:13:13because you're not okay with this?
01:13:16Sweetheart.
01:13:16Always so dramatic.
01:13:18The car not starting
01:13:19is a sign that you need to get a new car.
01:13:21I miss you.
01:13:25That's why I'm here.
01:13:26You've always been stubborn as a mule.
01:13:29I just never want you to think that I...
01:13:31Stop thinking and start living.
01:13:34You've got this, baby.
01:13:36The kind of love we had never dies.
01:13:38And I want you to be happy.
01:13:42Do you really mean that?
01:13:44Travis, I'm dead.
01:13:46What would be the point of me lying?
01:13:47But the car won't start.
01:13:50Then run.
01:13:51She's on the beach.
01:13:52If you start now, you'll catch up to her.
01:13:55I love you, Travis Hunter.
01:13:57Now, move it.
01:13:58Well, I'll be the 되지.
