A Christmas Proposal Page #6

I just want to leave, and I don't

understand why they won't let us.

Babe, we're trying to.

He's fixing the car.

He's not trying.

He's not fixing the car.

You're so nice with him, and not

even aggressive or anything.

Oh, my God. Would you

stop being so dramatic?

I'm not being dramatic.

You're dramatic.

You're being dramatic.

I'm not being dramatic.

Sweetie. I just want to go home.

I have things to do.

I know. I'm sorry. We weren't

supposed to stay this long.

And you act

like it's no big deal.

We're gonna get out of here

really soon, okay?

Rick.

Rick.

What? Did you know something

about a conference call?

Oh, I forgot.

Yeah, well maybe if you weren't

busy getting all nostalgic.

Not now, not now.

Whatever. He's on the phone.

You better get it.

This is Kirkland. Rick.

This is Rick.

Oh, hey, Kirkwood.

You know we had

a conference call today.

The investors kind of wanted

to hear from you, son.

I know, sir. I'm sorry.

I forgot.

Yeah.

Is there a problem

over there?

Is it too much peppermint

schnapps at your grandma's house?

Or too much Kahla

in the egg nog?

What's up, buddy?

Uh, no, sir.

Everything's fine.

That's good.

I want a full report, then.

What's the status?

Is it signed?

Is it filed?

Where are we?

I'm processing it

in my laptop as we speak.

Good, because the financiers want

it on their desk by the 25th.

Don't worry, sir. It will be there.

Okay, that's good.

Now, Reagan says we can start

demolition in February.

Yes, sir. "Yes, sir"? Is

that the best you can get?

You should be

celebrating, son.

This is the greatest day

of your life.

It is.

Because of you,

we took that piece of crap

piece of real estate

and turned it

into a gold mine.

You did this.

You made this happen.

You changed everything

for your whole town.

It's all

because of you, son.

Right. Because of me.

That's right. Enjoy it.

Go ahead.

Listen, when people hear

the name Malone,

I want them to think progress.

Of course.

Of course. Well, you know

what I always say.

Actions

speak louder than words.

And that's why

I'm willing to consider

letting you hyphenate your name

when you marry my daughter.

Like the Kennedys, you know.

Slash Shriver, Kennedy, you know

how they always do that.

So that we don't forget,

you know. It's cool.

Uh, well, I'll be sure

and get you an update tomorrow.

Whatever your last name is,

hyphen Malone.

Okay. I will, uh,

talk to you soon.

Have a great game.

Putt well.

Bye.

Bye.

Reagan, have you seen

the paperwork?

Put it over by the barn, honey.

Okay.

Yeah, I got it.

Oh, you're so strong.

She never laughed

And she never smiled

she didn't have a friend

Wouldn't go

outside to play

She didn't even care

about a holiday

I need some egg nog.

Rick.

Rick?

Hi.

Hey, Ma.

Hey. we're getting ready

to go on the hayrides.

You remember how fun that was?

They have music and games,

and the whole town

gets together.

I haven't been to that thing

since high school, Mom.

Aw.

I think

we're gonna stay here.

Why? I don't understand.

You used to love it.

I'm not

that same guy anymore, Mom.

Oh, come on.

What about Lisa?

What about her?

And... and Cassidy and Andy.

I mean, all your old friends

are gonna be there.

They'll be so disappointed.

Come on.

Well, why not, Reagan?

You'll love it.

Oh, don't tell me you're

actually thinking about going.

Well, you know,

it could be fun. Right?

Yeah.

Whatever.

All right, look.

I think we should

probably go, okay?

Okay, yeah. Great. Say hi

to Arnold the pig for me.

Okay. Well,

I'll see you downstairs.

Okay. 'Bye, sweetie.

Have fun.

I will. You, too.

I wish you would come.

Let's put the lights

up on the tree

The white snowfall

from a windowsill

And let's make a snowman

You and me

And dress it up

just like an Eskimo

You know

my favorite gift is you

You know my favorite gift

is you

You know

my favorite gift is you

Hey, guys. Hey.

Hey.

Hey, I've been trying

to call you. What's the deal?

Yeah, well,

it's the funniest thing.

I got the part in,

but it's the wrong one.

So can you believe it?

The wrong part? Reagan's

gonna blow a fuse, dude.

Well, it's

the Bavarian model.

There's a Bavarian model?

Oh, yeah.

And, um, well, you see,

the intake on the piston

it is backwards,

so I've got to swap it out

for the German version.

Oh, but don't worry.

Don't worry.

It's all gonna be fine. I'm sure

we'll get the part tomorrow.

Yeah. Sure. Probably.

Hey, here's Rosemary.

Rosemary! Here we are.

Hi.

No, no, no. You guys...

You guys stay here, and we'll

catch up with you later, okay?

You guys have fun.

We'll see you in a bit.

Well, where you going?

Okay, that was weird.

Yeah, that was weird.

Um...

So...

Do you want to dance?

What?

Do you want to dance?

Polka?

Yeah.

I don't know how. Do you?

No.

Come on.

It'll be fun. Come on.

Everybody, everybody.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You know what I'm saying?

Some of you know me,

and some of you don't.

That doesn't really matter,

'cause this is

my buddy Rick. Yay!

Yay! Yes, yes!

Yes, yes. Okay.

So, uh, this goes out

to a certain special someone.

Aw.

That was pretty sappy,

but here we go!

All right.

Sing it, city boy.

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh

O'er the fields we go

Laughing all the way,

ha ha ha

Bells on bobtail ring

Making spirits bright

What fun it is

to laugh and sing

Our sleighing song tonight

Ho! Jingle bells,

jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride

in a one-horse

open sleigh, hey

Jingle bells, jingle bells,

jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh

Oh, thank you very much,

Fillmore.

Fillmore!

Fillmore!

Whoo!

Give it up

for my buddy Rick!

Yes! Thank you, everybody.

Thank you.

I am getting down now.

Okay.

Thank you.

All right! Mosh pit!

That was so funny.

That was so silly.

You know, I haven't

picked up a guitar in years.

Remember the last time

when we were out here,

after that hayride?

Oh, yeah, and that guy...

he saw us making out

and he was like,

"I'm gonna tell on you."

You were scared.

Oh.

Whatever happened to us?

What do you mean?

I don't know. I mean...

what do you think

would have happened

if we hadn't broken up?

Well, I don't know.

What do you think?

I think we'd probably

open a practice

right across the street

from the doughnut shop.

Doing what?

I don't know, a little bit

of this, a little bit of that.

Being absolutely broke

and miserable.

Hey.

It's not the same

as it used to be.

I know. You can still do it,

though. That's important.

Well, you could have talked to

me before you left, you know.

I know, but I just knew

in my heart

that you didn't want

to come with me.

Yeah, but we always talked

about coming back here

after we graduated.

Remember, we said we were gonna

open up a practice in town.

Yeah, I know.

Then I get this note

with this ultimatum.

I wouldn't exactly
