already and I haden't said anything anything yet you broke it off with Louis didn't you I know I didn't break it off oh good I just evolved right out of the relationship I grew and moved through it and broke up with him yeah I broke up with him but it was for the best we had nothing in common I had put together a spreadsheet and no you didn't yes of course I did and it was clear on paper that we were just headed in different directions okay well who are you going to spend Christmas with this year I don't know Mom and Dad are taking a cruise so spend it with me and my family oh my parents only live an hour away we'll make it fun we'll make a road trip out of it you can sleep on the floor of my childhood bedroom oh please say yes yes thank you you're the best no okay now keep working but I

martinel I love what you've done but do you have any spare gold tinsel um Tila I thought you left for Palm Springs already changed plans I've been on the phone with board talking them down off a cliff do you have a moment yes no no sorry uh Lucy went a little overboard I will move him so you were saying the board's in a panic to put it mildly sales are down 15% from last year oh well that is worrying although the landscape has changed we were the first direct to Consumer wellness and Lifestyle brand and now the Market's crowded it makes sense sales are down but the board wants a new strategy to increase sales not a postmortem did you tell them all the strategies we have in place all the strategies that aren't working of course not of course not but I did tell them about a new product drop coming before Christmas designed to drive traffic to the website and increase sales I don't know anything about that what is it that's up to you I don't follow there is there's no prod yet that's where you come in come in and do what exactly to develop a small product drop Before Christmas bab this Christmas like the Christmas that's in two weeks from now CU normally it takes months even years to develop of but products it's not a full product launch it's just a very small oneoff drop still a lot of work we need to create a scarcity mindset now they will probably find the products sold out but while they are on our site they will find something else that they need do you want to take notes because this is marketing gold I'm giving you yes um so a new highly sought after product by Christmas something that oozes luxury something people have not seen before okay this won't be easy but if you can pull it off the senior VP job will be yours wow okay you can you can count on me great yeah I will see you at 5 for your pitch 5:00 p.m. today that's right oh I like him there he looks [Music] happy Merry Christmas baby Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year okay Merry Christmas [Music] baby Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and when you tell me that you love how's the brainstorming oh what do you need tea green juice something very deep fried how am I supposed to come up with a pitch by 5:00 p.m. today I I I got to get out of here I can't think in here I'll be back at 5:00 wish me luck where are you going to get [Music] inspired [Music] [Music] this one was a long time in the making it took years to perfect the balance of sense wow I had no idea candle making was such a science oh yeah it really is here that's leather cardamom and Sandalwood that's beautiful it's our most iconic candle oh that smells like Le chat Flur in Paris it should it was made especially for that hotel unbelievable I recognized it that was 10 years ago not that hard to believe actually scent is an incredibly powerful trigger for memory and unlike our other sense it travels directly to the part of our brain that activates emotions oh easy easy there uh oh my goodness I am so sorry are you all right yes I I'm I'm fine I'm just a little embarrassed uh I will pay for any damage uh it doesn't look like anything's broken just a mess easily fixed can I help you with anything did you want to buy dreamy ice what did you call me not you the the candle it's um it's called dreamy eyes oh the candles called dream eyes when I thought I couldn't get more embarrassed um no I I I should go but thank you and I'm really sorry but thank you and uh I'm I'm very sorry but thank you and thank you uh thank [Music] you you're late you missed the staff Christmas treat sorry I I got lost in time that's all right I got you one smells just like Christmas which leads me to my pitch scented candles I'm not talking about ordinary candles I want to make memory candles I'm listening all right so today I was feeling really stressed out like a lot of our customers do every day and I wandered into this candle store and I found a candle that smells just like my grandma Minnie's house on Christmas morning took me straight back I I could feel my grandma's kiss on my cheek and and smell her perfume mingled with dinner cooking in the oven it was all the love and joy of that morning just came rushing back changed my whole day that sounds like quite a candle I want to make Chic beautifully packaged memory Scent candles giving our customers the gift of a joyful Christmas memory I like it original quirky but how will these candles be exclusive a must have item well I found this incredible Candle Maker and his brand with the Goodwell could be an amazing collaboration you have one week to put a sample pack together if I like what I see we'll start the marketing campaign and launch a small batch a week later if website traffic increases position is yours we'll increase traffic well that sounds perfect then oh one last thing what is this mysterious Artisan Candle Maker you'll have to wait and [Music] see hey Tom Daddy hey how was the Christmas Market we bought so much candy my uh why good I am the fun ant it is my job how's your day been slow any sales a couple when Catherine and I first open would be out of stock by mid December well maybe everyone's putting off their Christmas shopping I know I am as a matter of fact Olive and I are going to head out now oh before you do Olive do you want to pick a candle for Mom this year yeah okay off you go this one because when I smell it it makes me remember Mom it's perfect come on Geto okay see you later bye bye [Music] dad so tomorrow I'm going back to the candle store to make the candle guy a proposal is he hot Lucy what he's a candle guy so he's got to be hot like a Burning Flame with smoldering good luck see what I did there you stay on topic and it's Christmas anything's possible like Christmas great how about launching a brand new product to help Drive traffic to the website is that possible I don't know about that stop it I'm kidding you're the most organized efficient hardworking person I know so if anyone can do it you can thank you I just need to work around the clock and I need the candle guide say yes a big Corporation is taking his candles to the world of course he'll say yes no no yeah no I'm sorry I don't understand I mean it's an original idea I'm just not interested in a collaboration oh so you like the idea but you're not interested well two things can be true at the same time wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait hi again I don't mean to pry but most small business owners dream of an opportunity like this not me can I ask why you want me to be honest of course I don't think your idea is doable and I'm really not interested in cheap Mass produce gimmicks cheap gimmicks no no no no this would be a small exclusive drop I didn't mean to offend you and I appreciate your offer but I need to protect my Brand's Integrity right cuz creating candles with me would taint your brand and damage your integrity no that came out wrong I it's just not from I'm sorry all [Music] right Lucy said you met with candlemaker yes that is exactly what I was doing y did you give him the contract um no not quite yet I'm I'm working on it better get moving time is of the essence he's arrogant and pretentious and opinionated and self-absorbed he's also like really tall do you know how annoying that is so then kick him to the curb and find a new supplier Sol but I've done my research his candles can be seen in boutique hotels and style magazines his brand is just what we need but you know so many influencers why don't you just find a new sty ey cuz he's more than just a brand his candles are incredible I can't explain it all I know is an ordinary candlemaker can't recreate these complex nuan sense like he can so how are you going to change this new cool extraordinary candlemaker's mind I'm not he made it pretty clear he wants nothing to do with me just going to have to come up with a better idea and fast mhm before you do that can't you make this bow for me thank you I hear you mhm yeah yeah I'm totally listening are you yeah yeah yeah okay yeah where' the start disappear to uh it's at the end of the table oh who's Juliet Sweeney no idea oh uh she stopped by the store today and asked me to collaborate with her company the good well the good well are huge that's amazing congratulations yeah I'm not doing it what why not you said things were slow they are but business will pick up and if it doesn't look I'm not partnering with another company again not after last time what that was different no it's the same they offered me a bunch of money to collaborate ripped me off and left the business in tatters well that last part hasn't happened this time yet oh Mom's calling oh put it on speaker hi Mom I'm here with Maya hi hello my darlings how are the Christmas preparations coming well we're just decorating the tree right now it'll look like a winter wonderland in here by the time you arrive mom you still there I I'm I'm sorry I'm just a little overwhelmed I've got a lot of folks down there packing family charity boxes down 2,000 ago the truth is we lost our major donor things are very tight I can't hire more helpers without a donor and if I don't lend a hand we're not going to get the family boxes out in time for Christmas you didn't tell us you lost a donor well I was hoping to find one quickly but it it didn't work out that way which is is why I called I'm so sorry but I'm not going to be able to make it to see you at Christmas oh no Mom really I I don't know how I can leave I've got people working around the clock I mean this is my charity I I've run it for 20 years and I hope to run it for another 20 I need to be here of course you do we we'll miss you that's all well we can video conference all day long that way I won't miss a thing it'll be like I'm right there with you now can you please get my beautiful granddaughter so I can tell oh it's okay Mom she's at a friends for dinner but I'll tell her just um you get back to it okay love you love you bye let me put the star on you're [Music] taller I don't understand does she not want to see me oh of course she does and what is it well it's it's kind of hard to explain it's grownup stuff I hate grownup stuff but Grandma loves you and so do Maya and I and we're going to make sure you have the best Christmas ever okay okay Dad okay it's time for sleep now Kido night night Dad night seding [Music] bring Grandma here for [Music] Christmas how'd you take it uh she'll be okay you know kids are flexible are those my accounts they were just sitting on the table Maya you said things were a little slow they are a little slow it's worse than that and you know it you can't just put your head in the sand I'm not putting my head in the sand I am focusing on what I'm good at which is making beautiful candles okay the rest will just work itself out no it won't you need to work it out with the Goodwill [Music] I need an update on the candle project yes uh for sure of course um great news actually the project has evolved into something different better instead of candles uh I green L candles why are you moving in a different direction well the truth is the candle supplier is right here uh Hilda this is Tom trer Tom please to meet you Tom I'm Hilda Holstein I'm the CEO and founder of the Goodwill Juliet and I were just about to go over some preliminary numbers if you'd like to join us budget's already fer issue I got to go we'll talk tomorrow tom absolutely nice Santa thank you yeah he's a real [Music] asset do you have time to talk sure look the truth is it's hard for me to trust a company that got rich selling detoxes and crystals to vulnerable people you make us sound like a bunch of criminals no not at all I mean none of it's technically illegal just immoral and all right just stop did you just call me out of a meeting just to trash me and my company again no I came because I realize that my business needs Rejuvenation and I should take a risk with you so you want to work together well I don't know if want is the right word but I think I need to and what makes you think that I still want to invest in you when you think so little of me and my company I have a feeling you think me and my candles are worth it what do you say we got a deal I'll send you the contract [Music] see thank you and have a Merry Christmas so how did it go you're looking at the new Goodwill collaborator good for you I feel I'm going to be sick to my stomach oh come on it's not that bad the Goodwell has a great reputation mhm it's sustainable high-end or maybe just think about the money it's a great opportunity for the business we'll see is there a line of candle makers in your family uh bet your candles are woodsy yeah some of them how long does it take to make a candle oh Juliet Your Candle Maker here you can just call me Tom sure Candle Maker Tom okay thank you Lucy I'll let you know if we need anything else morning oh is it still morning I've been here for hours yeah it's 10:00 a.m. I like to start at 8:00 at the latest ah shall we get started sure great I'd like to begin by telling you a little bit about the goodwi just to dispel any misconceptions or preconceived ideas you might have is that really necessary I'm not sure I need to know all the ins and outs the Goodwell was founded in 1992 by our Visionary CEO Hill the Hallin it was the first direct to Consumer wellness and Lifestyle brand the good well was the first company of its kind to harness the power today we are the second largest wellness company in the marketplace any questions Tom H yep questions yeah can we get out of here I think this lighting is dulling my senses uh no not not yet I can call in some lunch or get some coffee tea activated water that I need some air I'll be back soon wait Tom where are you where are you going wait wait Tom wait Tom wait you can't just storm out of a meeting I didn't storm I strolled I was in the middle of a presentation look if we're going to work together that we need to communicate clearly and respect each other's time we also need to work in a space where we can be creative not in there in there meaning my office yeah how do you think in that place are you serious yeah I am look you want me to make something special and beautiful then we need to be in an inspirational space for it to come to life like where I out my shop no I need to be in the office look it's not just about creating Beauty it's about crunching numbers and understanding customers and those things are important okay what if we split our time we can finish today at your office and then tomorrow we're on my turf fine oh Christmas is a time for giving wow this is very generous don't sound so surprised come on well here are some some designs our team have come up with do you have any others you don't like these uh not really that's surprising our design team is award-winning I just see this kind of thing everywhere it's overdone you said you wanted to do something different and special I'll ask for more options oh um I put together a list of names for our candle range hit me remember C memory lights all right just try to keep an open mind memory flame memory Journey ooh hard pass do you have anything constructive to contribute because being a Critic is easy but actually coming up with the ideas is a little hard so what about Memories by pure because they're memories and they're pure you like it admit it I I don't I don't mind it come come up with a few more if you like no no no we don't have time so let's just go with Memories by pure okay and uh we'll move on sure cuz it's it's fine you know oh okay yep so good work for both of us okay how do you think it went today give us a five out of 10 ouch I was hoping to make a little more progress well the creative process takes as long as it takes no actually in this case it takes one week or less Roger that I'll see you tomorrow bright and early smells like romance stop [Music] okay morning H what is this green juice yes I can see that it's green why would you drink it it strengthens your immune system controls inflammation increases red blood cell production tastes like lawn clippings here are some spreadsheets I put together we need to quickly come up with a list of candle names scents colors ingredients we don't need that making candles is not about filling out a spreadsheet this is a tried and true product development method it helps streamline the process and makes things super efficient making candles is an exploration okay we need to take the long and winding road to get to where we need to go I can't tell if you're joking I mean I really hope you're are you joking never been more serious all right we don't have time to take the scenic route we are on a tight schedule and I'm looking for a shortcut there are no shortcuts come on I'll show you and you can leave the spreadsheets behind not what you were expecting not at all all I can see and smell is Christmas oh and taste this gingerbread's delicious now all of our senses are loaded with Christmas we can begin begin what exactly exploring all of the scents and seeing what combinations we want to work with you're probably not going to need those bread sheets so what I'm just Flying Blind then not exactly I know the [Music] way I can't believe how many ideas memories and emotions came flooding back about Christmas while we were brainstorming yeah I find stimulating all the senses really helps trigger ideas and creativity being able ble to smell taste and touch it was all pretty incredible and we didn't even need the spreadsheet although I will be going back to the office and putting this all down into a document okay but first some lunch okay where do you want to order from oh I made us some sandwiches oh let's [Music] go I've only known you a few days but you really love the outside yeah well outside is where I get my inspiration I mean smell that roasting chestnuts little Cedar and a little ballom I mean there are ideas everywhere all right let's get this out you've prepared it all y we have turkey and cranberry on sourdough H this bread is delicious I made it myself took a little while to perfect I got a sour starter from my neighbor uhhuh you know what it never mind I look my sister bend me from talking about breadmaking she said she had to listen to me drone on for 10 years about candle making so bread making is where she draws the line wow you must really love making things yeah I do you know the the art and the science the the what and the how of it you like making things um no no I'm universally terrible at making anything oh I'm sure that's not true well I I guess I'm good at making decisions and appointments well I'm terrible at making appointments so maybe together we'll make a great team maybe cheers that's better nice and toasty Daddy Daddy hey

sure so what do you think I'm going to a costume party with Felix tonight oh I think you make a perfect Mrs Claus I wanted to say I'm fun I'm easygoing I don't take life too seriously but also I'm looking for something very serious and you might be my soul meate I don't think a costume could say all that I feel like I could fall in love tonight it's your third date love can happen on the third date if you let it especially during Christmas which is why you need to keep an open mind about hot candle guy his name is Tom and we're working together nothing else is going on at all mhm you don't know how this could end yes I do and a successful project and promotion and that is all I care about right now right now fine be honest with me this is hot right yeah it's great I love the glasses very authentic thank you my granny gave them to me she's blind as a bat oh can you see not even a [Music] little did I do it right sure did looks perfect can I go play of course you can off you go so Juliet seems lovely well you met her for less than 90 seconds well I only needed that long to work out that she's friendly and gorgeous fishy I hadn't noticed when you knocked over my snow globe in second grade I knew straight away so don't even try okay she's a nice person she's attractive and nice and attractive people don't just fall into your lap every day she didn't fall in my lap she kind of did okay stop we're not having this conversation Juliet and I are just doing a project together that's it we'll see about that no we won't what do you think I asked you to put together a range of different candle samples for us to choose from yeah here they are but these are all identical ah but they're not each one is handcrafted and organically shaped no two are the same the magic is in the aroma okay um when I asked for samples I meant a range of different shapes and sizes like tall candles for the table or small ones for stocking stuffers stocking stuffers yeah well it's Christmas you know but that's not how I work my brand is the one shape and color oh that's another thing we're going to have to offer more than one color F though we'll never agree otherwise oh hold on on I thought you came to me because you wanted my candles and I do well it sounds like you're trying to make something completely new no no no not at all you are in charge of the candle making I'm just in charge of the marketing strategy like okay imagine you're scrolling through your social media I'm not on social media of course you're not but I am and my job is to sell via social media and the goodwi was built on social media so you're going to have to trust me okay fine explain what you want us to do all right so customers love the organic shape of your candles but I really want to catch their eye when they think of Christmas so why don't we try just a few subtle Christmas shapes and colors that really evoke gift giving and celebration huh okay I I guess we could give it a try that's the spirit we're just in the testing phase I will take [Music] it here are the bottles of dye and everything we need great let's try some Christmas colors ready GRE okay let's make some [Music] candles push like

1258 Davis way got it she's having a ball so am I marshmallow no oh no there no wa no wa no way the speaker are not allowed not allowed [Music] hey hey right on time right on time well thanks for agreeing to meet me here kidding I love this place oh good I thought we could just walk around and take in all the Christmas smells and sights and try to come up with a few Christmas Memories to face our candles on oh so you've decided that a sterile office isn't the best place to come up with ideas yes someone told me ideas flow when you fill your senses oh that someone sounds really wise not to mention incredibly cool and interesting he's all right oh come on let's go oh when I was a little girl I used to bake gingerbread with my grandma Minnie she was so softspoken and patient she didn't care if I took too long or if my gingerbread turned out to be terrible she just loves spending time with me and I love spending time with her my mom was a single mom and her mom died before I was born so I never got to know my grandmother I feel so lucky that Olive is so close with my mom I just I love watching them spend time again she'll remember it always I know I have that should be our first scent we can call it grandma's Christmas snuggles I like it yeah I think it's good yeah oh look over there oh you know I still have my stocking from when I was a kid do you no no we moved so much I don't know what happened to it my parents aren't really sentimental type I'm not sure they kept anything except for me of course my mom is the total opposite she saved everything and she loved making things by hand she actually made my stocking for me and it's covered in these intricate snowflakes it's a it's a real Masterpiece I don't remember her making mine I was too young but I remember watching her make my sister's and it was like magic I mean her furrowed brow her Focus so you've loved handmade things since you were a kid yeah I I guess I got that gift from my mom she put it in your stocking for you yeah well she also put in a lot of chocolate and candy canes well that should be our second memory then Christmas stalking goodies yeah mom will get a real kick out of that one great okay we we have five memories so far the first one is grandma's Christmas snuggles which smells like my grandma Minnie's perfume herbs and fabric softener Christmas talking goodies which smells like chocolate and candy cane my personal favorite under the Christmas tree which smells like Christmas tree hot cocoa and cookies making gingerbread which smells like cinnamon Ginger clove star Anison honey and then finally marshmallow and kisses which smells like marshmallow and shampoo remind me why shampoo again cuz whenever my mom would snuggle and kiss me I could always smell your shampoo are you going to be able to pull this off I can try ideally we need one more memory oh my brain is fried yeah me too could probably use some sustenance how do you feel about ordering in some takeout to eat inside this time let's do it [Music] okay Christmas seems much more fun when you have a kid around we do have some pretty special Christmas Memories there is one in particular it was oliv's first Christmas her mom and I were so excited Olive couldn't even roll over and I bought her a tricycle on Christmas day she laid down on a blanket beside us mesmerized by the lights on the tree just giggling and smiling sounds pretty perfect oliv and I lost Catherine so that memory becomes more and more precious to me every Christmas oh Tom I'm so sorry oh it was a long time ago now I just try to be present and live in each [Music] moment this building is such old wiring the power should come back on soon oh luckily we're in a candle store it all looks so beautiful yeah it does U what I meant was sometimes it takes a blackout to see things clearly I should get that in case it's all of of course hey Maya uh oh no okay I'll see you soon oh oh power's back on but um I got to go is everything okay Olive has a tummy ache it's probably just too many candy canes but Maya thinks that she should skip the Santa visit they had planned so it's not going over well I'm sorry she has to miss out yeah me [Music] too flashing across the sky like a shooting star who's that I don't know I'll go check you wait here Merry Christmas Tom this is Mrs Claus please to make your acquaintance sir but I'm not here to see you so move aside 12:58 Davis way was the address Santa gave me come on [Music] in I'm looking for a girl named Olive does she live here Mrs Claus sure am and you must be Olive what are you doing here a little Elfie told me you were supposed to see my husband today but didn't make it to your appointment I have a tummy ache well Santa stuck at the allall but I had an opening in my schedule so I thought I'd come instead you're even better than Santa thank you I know that's what I've been trying to say can I get you a drink of water or hot cocoa Mrs Claus no not for me now now leave us to it are you here to ask what I want for Christmas yes I am let me get ready okay Olive shoot it's pretty tricky oh no don't worry about that I've got incredible resources at my disposal and it's not the normal kind of thing it'ss asked for no such thing is normal one time a little boy asked me for a pet unicorn and then another wanted an invisibility potion and one time a little girl asked me to make her pet hamster smile this is definitely easier than that okay I really really [Music] really want my grandma to be here on Christmas day no toys or anything just my grandma okay Olive you know what I'm going to put a special word in with Santa for you thanks Mrs Claus oh okay now my reindeer have to have their dinner so I've got to go can Mrs Claus read me a story oh I'm sure Mrs Claus needs to get back to the North Pole oh no no no I'd love to read her a story why don't you show me to your room let's go so what do you think can you make her Christmas wish come true my mom runs a big charity called together and they just lost a major donor so things are a bit tight and she can't get away oh I'm sorry yeah I didn't realize that Olive was taking it this hard but now I do so thank you anytime I should probably go check on that sorry I was trying to get her to go to sleep but still Story Time with Mrs Claus it's okay uh she is such a great kid yeah yeah she really is look thanks so much for making tonight so special for her oh it's nothing no no it was it was definitely something you are daddy look at me story time's over um I should yeah yeah see you tomorrow yes come on off to [Music] bed it's just not coming together and we're running out of time let me smell that's supposed to be under the Christmas tree maybe too much Christmas tree I'll try it again with less Pine and frankincense hi he Hilda yeah right now okay I'll see you soon Hilda wants to discuss the preliminary budget right now I'll keep working at this okay good [Music] luck they are stunning and they really evoke Christmas we're just finalizing the sense and I would have thought you to finish the product by now it's only been a few days that is not our biggest problem these costs are simply too high well it's a high value item that may be so but at this point we're going to have to price them at $150 a unit and they will be worth it they are uniquely tailored a one-of-a-kind creation a meaningful gift with hours of burning life Juliet the purpose of this project is to create a small product drop that will drive a wide range of customers to our website the product has to have have a wide appeal I I know this well you also know a candle with $150 price tag has a limited market most people are going to look at that and they're just going to move on I see your point but but Tom and I really believe I am not interested in what Tom thinks well we're partners he is your supplier this is your project I'm beginning to think that you've become distracted with the creative process and your handsome collaborator so put your business hat on the numbers need to add up so bring the cost down and lock in the product because you were running out of time Jo why do we give presents to all our neighbors even the ones we don't know well it's a neighborhood tradition and because Christmas is a time of giving Grandma is helping families in need and we are doing our part by giving gifts yeah like working at the soup kitchen M and I do that every year we sure do I like that we help people but I still wish Grandma was here me too kid home I'm all done I'm going to go play now okay so how is the memory candle project going well really really well oh really really well stop it stop what I was talking about the candles I finally figured out all the scents today it was really complicated mhm what nothing it's just like so obvious that you really really like Juliet Maya you said you were going to stop trying to set me up with I am not trying to set you up I am just nudging you towards happiness feels more like a sh job I just want you to be happy I am happy really really happy hey get come [Music] on hey hey you made it what is all this so I finally worked out the Christmas tree s goodness what do you think smells just like a Christmas tree can't believe it you're you're a genius so why are we here oh so now that we have all the s we could get some customer feedback and then see if we need to do any final tweaking yeah it's a great idea and then once we get the feedback we're finally done well not exactly um I just spoke to Hilda and we need to get our unit pric down but the only way to do that is by using cheap artificial sense and you know that's not what I want but we need to explore all options this is how it starts how how what starts what exactly are you talking about you change one thing and then another until there's nothing left to the original idea that's not what's happening here are you sure yes look I care about this project as much as you do you're not the only one that has a lot writing on it what does that mean well this project is kind of like a test for me if I can pull it off I get had a huge promotion so you just brought me in as a pond so you can get a promotion no that that's not what I just said and here I was think that we were trying to make something special together we are two things can be true at the same time Tom I I don't understand why you're so upset about this I asked you to be totally transparent and I have been seems like a pretty big detail to leave out a personal detail about my career you and I have a business relationship a business relationship that that came out wrong no no you're right this is just business Tom I have been honest with you about everything look I I didn't keep this from you I just didn't think it mattered that's all I I never thought you would feel this way about it to be honest neither did I look my last collaboration did not go well there were a lot of lies I guess I'm just a little suspicious this time around what if I pitched to Hilda a two-tier line a premium line with more natural ingredients that you want and then a costeffective line that she needs I could be okay with that you can trust me I promise we are in this together good let's get back to the doll could we get you to spill a candle for a sec hi would you like to just I would like to try uh the candles would you like to smell the candles sure can I get you to smell I do you want to just all right hi do you have five minutes to answer some questions about a everyone's in such a rush I have an idea I'll be right back where are you going to get something that'll make people stop in their tracks could I get you to no okay where did you even get these from Lucy her wardrobe is like a costume store you don't even look like candles speak for yourself I look and feel like a Burning Flame can't believe I agreed to this yeah well it's working hi would you like to smell oh hi can you answer some questions after would you like [Music] it we good yeah did you like to smell yeah what if I went like this oh this to do like it oh wow no okay what Christmas tree you want to SM that one you like it oh [Laughter] [Music] yeah can't believe how fast the day went I feel really burnt out get it yeah I get it we were really wicked they were no match for us okay okay that's enough what you don't like my pun that makes no sense please stop oh hi Hilda um tomorrow but it's only been a okay sure I will see you then uh Hilda is getting a little nervous on our timeline and wants to hear our Presentation tomorrow doesn't she know that we're nowhere close to ready there's no such thing is not ready I'll just have to work through the night looks like we'll be burning the candle at both ends oh look who's having fun now but I'll uh work on the budgets and I'll get you some new numbers for tonight okay great and I'll make sure that our presentation is T lightful [Music] uhh hey where are you about that Maya can't open the store this morning and I think you can hand another presentation on on your own it's a little last minute but um yes yeah I can handle it I'll let you know how it goes okay thanks for understanding good luck great now priced at $75 per unit the Memories by pure range are organic candles made with 100% pure soy wax and natural oils designed for a broad customer base this all looks great no no no I still have a lot more to go through I haven't even told you about the premium line I have heard enough it ticks all the boxes I just have a few tweaks and then we have sign off a few tweaks oh nothing significant just an amendment clause or two I'll attach to the contract and send it to Tom there is no time to waste all right well I'll get started on the social media campaign congratulations Juliet you did it thank [Music] you have a Merry Christmas hey how'd it go Hilda loved it so it's happening just like that pretty much yeah she said she had a few tweaks but it's all systems go uh we have so much work to do before the launch next week I better get started how many candles do we need uh we are still working that out but um you should receive paperwork today with the order I feel like I've been half holding my breath since we started well now you can free easy cuz we did it together we did Catherine and I started this business together I forgot what it was like to be part of a team and share the wins we should get a drink we should celebrate do you have time for a drink uh not not really there's just so much to do of course um let me know if there's anything I can do [Music] Juliet something amazing is happened fantastic just tell me about it after the launch Juliet is that for best decorated office first place the candle launch and this and equally important achievement you should be celebrating I wish I I need to work you don't need to work you've been at it all day wow and I will continue to be at it all night this is a major moment can you please stop and smell the rose scented candles for once great things are happening you should try to enjoy it that's all I'm trying to say maybe you're right of course I'm right and speaking of being right I think you should open yourself up to Tom I know you and you've been walking on air for the last few days I've just been enjoying the creative process it's not just that and you know it so you can be your head and work and let it pass you by or you can take this and see what happens [Music] M the Goodwill sent the order this is incredible news what's the next step I'm not sure but it's all in here what's wrong these are new contract Pages they made some pretty big changes [Music] 20 different cents candles in every color customers get to choose their scent combinations I mean that's not a few minor tweaks that's total Destruction I'm not doing it this is so unclear I don't even understand how they can do this they're activating an option apparently If the product is deemed Successful by the Goodwill the Goodwell has the right to opt to increase production and extend the aforementioned product elction this is so unclear they don't Define successful or how much they can increase production maybe you should talk to a lawyer I don't have that kind of money you know that I need to figure out a way to make this work I never should have signed oh I love it I'll take this one thank you for the launch you have to make 300 candles but next year when they increase production you'd be required to make 5,000 a week that's impossible I I can't deliver that you going have to find a way or you might be in breach of your [Music] contract I decided you were right we should celebrate C and this is a little something I saw for Olive to put under the tree I couldn't help myself is everything okay we need to talk I took this process seriously and I was proud of what we came up with yeah I'm proud too what's going on I read the paperwork Memories by pure range isn't six beautiful well-crafted memory candles it's a cheap DIY mass-produced tented candle range where where customers mix and match sents online mixing sense is complex can't let customers do that themselves it's a terrible idea that won't work which is something I could have told you if you had just asked me I didn't know about any of this how can you say that with a straight face I didn't I've been working on the social media campaign I've spent all day talking to influencers I hadn't read over H this changes yet Tom you can trust me I I didn't know look hilta said she wanted a a small drop a boutique range she obviously changed her mind I'm sorry she made all these changes okay I didn't know about any of this okay okay so now that you do know will you change it back to the way it was I can't I can't of course you can't Hilda is my boss okay she does what she wants this is obviously what she wants what she wants is going to ruin my business how is that possible your business will be booming next year I am contracted to make 5,000 candles a week 5,000 a week weak I don't have the facilities for that and if I don't deliver the goodwi will sue that is easily solved because I I can help you expand your operation and and and open open another Workshop there's still time to make changes but that's not what I want I thought you understood I don't want to make junk and constantly push and grow I I I want to protect and enjoy the beauty I already [Music] have [Music] it's not a complete disaster kind of feels like it is right now but you're almost senior vice president of marketing I know it's amazing it's just a Tom and I worked so hard on this and he's so mad at me right now now I'll get over it you mean you'll get over him yeah I mean I'll get over all of it reload [Music] yep [Laughter] [Music] cheers daddy daddy do you want to make a g Bread House not right now why super busy kiddo but Dad please I'm I'm sorry sweet PE I just have a lot to do okay maybe [Music] tomorrow Hey Juliet it's Olive do you want to come over and make a gingerbread house pretty please my dad wants to talk to you hi yeah she's very [Music] persuasive this is going to be the best gingerbread house in the world I think so too uh um where would you put this one M maybe here because it kind of looks like Christmas lights on top of a roof yeah it it does hey Dad doesn't it look amazing uh yeah yeah it looks great [Music] honey uh so I think let's just let this dry it should take about 20 minutes thanks Juliet I'll see you then okay you don't have to do that it's fine um um Tom I'm really sorry about how things ended up when I came by the store um seeing you so angry this was the last thing I expected to happen why did you come by the store just to celebrate and um see where the night took us I I never thought it would take us here uh look if you need help with the launch I I can it's under control I'd rather work alone from now on okay um so I should I should probably go but just uh tell Olive goodbye for me okay happy to be around happy to say I'm here it's Christmas it's Christmas it's Christmas it's Christmas how's everything shaping up good good Tom is working around the clock on the small release of candles we sent samples to a range of Wellness influencers to start the marketing campaign countown to the website is on and traffic to the website has increased already what are you thinking for the launch oh just something small and online from the Goodwill offices oh no we need something in person and online how about we have a launch party at the candle store do a Q&A with Tom we'll stream it on social media and take questions from all over the Internet do I really need to have Tom there of course we do Tom's brand gives the whole range credibility and he's easy on the eyes H the well it's true it doesn't make sense not to have him front and center so you'll speak to him [Music] sure okay listen up we have just 1 hour before the Press arrives careful with those they're antiques hey uh thanks for hosting I'm not planning on staying I'm not needed so actually you are um Hilda wants you on the panel as the face of pure candles of course she [Music] does hey are you ready are are you okay I'm fine just stressed well public speaking used to give me anxiety too I'm not anxious I'm exhausted I've been up most nights worrying about what how to avoid a lawsuit make thousands of DIY memory candles and be a father to Olive next year it's what a joke um hey if you need help with any of it thanks but I got myself into this I need to work out a way to handle it on my own so I think we have time for one more question uh yes this is a question for Tom what does the future hold for Pure candles your own candle brand I mean this is a little different than your locally made products isn't it um uh well that I'm unsure of I well um that's all the time we have for questions but I do have a final announcement the Memories by pure candles next year will be mass-produced by another candle maker under a sister brand name to be announced [Music] soon we thank Tom for bringing his magic to the Goodwill and bringing Christmas memory candles to us all so thank you Tom we are very grateful for the gift of handmade products made with [Music] [Applause] love thank you again all right thank you thank you for today thank you you really are full of surprises felt like right thing to do well judging by the look on Hilda's face it was the first sheet heard of it yeah let's just call it a Spare of the moment decision Juliet can we talk yeah excuse me okay so what was that stunt you told we need pure need it past tense now that the Christmas drop is done another company would be a better fit I disagree the pure prand Association is very valuable look the truth is Tom was going to be a liability we want to go big ination just isn't up for it I was looking to risky I was protecting our business I guess that makes sense do you have another supplier I have options to choose from we can decide in the New Year all right smooth things over with Tom increases one-off payment and get it processed ASAP well it looks like website traffic is through the roof congratulations promotion is yours hey great news Hilda has instructed me to increase your oneoff payment it'll be in your account tomorrow thank you is there something wrong when you told me you'd use another supplier next year because it was the right thing to do I believed you good that's the truth but you just told Hilda that you did it because I'm a liability no I was just saying that so you say things behind my back that you don't mean no I I mean it's complicated I didn't not mean it another company would be a better fit but you said yourself pure wouldn't cope that you were stressed I I thought this was what you wanted it is and I'm grateful just I thought you and I could be be be what [Music] nothing I I'm not sure I know who you are and it feels like you just are who people want you to be wow all right um I'm going to go senior vice president resident has a nice ring to it sure does and well deserved I just got off the phone with the board traffic's up sales are up everyone's happy just in time for Christmas well since everyone's happy do you think I could ask you a favor of the new senior vice president okay I'm listening well every year the Goodwill makes a donation to a charity right we do it's the last bit of business before Christmas do you think the board would allow me to pick the charity this year how could they refuse good cuz I think I have a great idea I bet you do Merry Christmas Juliet Merry [Music] Christmas good morning things look back to normal around here yep the whole Goodwill mess is behind me and I couldn't be happier you don't look very happy what are you talking about I'm Overjoyed I have money in my account clav A's over everything is Peachy peachy yeah why you smiling like that I'm happy yeah you said that have you spoken to Juliet yet of course not Tom she deserves a simple thank you she did a pretty great thing for you it wasn't for me well she said that was a reason she said a lot of [Music] things [Music] I miss Grandma yeah me too sweetie YooHoo surprise my baby girl I I can't believe it what are you doing here did Mrs claw send you who knows she might have had something to do with it she works in mysterious way but how did you get away well we got a toner at the 11th hour and I got the last plane ticket it all worked out in the end oh it's good to see him miss you oh I missed you both so much [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Buton out of all our Christmas traditions I think Christmas Eve waffles might be my favorite I think my favorite is seeing the three of you in these ridiculous matching Christmas sweaters yes especially when you make me wear yours and mine is opening one present on Christmas Eve can we do that it's a little early yet Buton please Dad please can we do it okay which one this one who's it from Juliet Juliet huh Miss Claus I love it who is Juliet a friend of daddy she's gorgeous we love her oh tell me more it's not like that we collaborated together on a project she works for this uh wellness and lifestyle company oh it's a super cool company a lot of celebs buy their stuff they're only on social media online though you probably haven't heard of them I go online I'm hip what's it called the Goodwill I know the Goodwill but not online the Goodwill is our new donor no that that can't be right yes yes the good well a wellness and lifestyle company just made a very generous donation I don't believe it I do that was Juliet she did this for you no it's just a coincidence how could she have known that's mom's charity I didn't say you told her about together yeah when Mrs Claus was here I said that Mom couldn't make it because they lost a major donor well I want to meet this Juliet and thank her personally well you can Mom Tom the big doofus isn't talking to her don't call your brother a doofus no it's it's okay Mom I am am a doofus oh fair enough a complete and total fool I I got
