I'm late Kevin everyone's trying to get out of the office early for Thanksgiving I've been in out of meetings all morning so no problem glad you're here yeah so how's Jenny she's good considering when is she due uh February but the doctor says it's going to be more like January twin boys wow tell me about it so what are you ready well is anybody ever really ready but I think we've been waiting for this for some time so uh we'll be just fine let's talk over here we've known each other a long time Kevin and nobody appreciates your company's work more than I do we appreciate your business you're always on time you're on budget and your designs have a unique quality we cannot find anywhere else why do I feel like this is all eading to a but but you are also expensive with the economy the way it is right now we can't afford to renew Precision designs contract for next year oh let's put our heads together figure this out and I wish I could Dan you're our biggest client without this retainer look I know this couldn't come at a worst time maybe in in 6 or 8 months if things turn around given [Music] that I'm sorry how could they all of a sudden just cancel our contract I'm sure they didn't make their decision lightly they've been very happy with our work I don't understand I'm guessing but it seems obvious it's the the economy cutbacks Kevin that's like over a third of our operating budget which is why I wanted to talk to you about it right away I know this is obviously something that affects all of us what happens now well first of all let's nobody panic we have other projects we have more money coming in before the end of the year and just this morning I put out some feelers trying to drum up some more business and I know with Christmas coming uh this is pretty much the worst news I could be telling you but I also want you to know I plan to do everything I can to keep this company [Music] going [Music] get it while it's hot homemade vegetable soup perfect thing for a Autumn evening when did you learn how to make soup well there's this new thing called the Internet it's amazing what you can find on there oh well I'm very impressed thank you but I'm pregnant I'm not an invalid hey doctor says you have to stay off your feet I can still make dinner yeah but I figured I need to practice because once the twins get here I'll be cooking plenty good point Thank you Lord for this meal thank you all right it's good hey you hear that boys it's good she said it's good oh my gosh seriously I think they heard you no you kicked but which one is it I don't know if this is Mark kick once if it's Benjamin kick [Music] [Laughter] twice you never told me how that meeting went oh fine how much did they ask you to cut back on the contract they decided not to renew our contract they can't afford me what we'll be okay are you sure are you kidding I started Precision design 10 years ago and I intend to keep it running until our sons are old enough to support us you should have told me look well the only thing that matters right now is that you take care of yourself I got this okay okay so go back in there put your feet up I'll finish up in here okay okay [Music] Sarah Happy Thanksgiving uh we got uh turkey stuffing cranberry sauce sweet potato pie and green beans you got to be kidding wait till you see what we have for dessert I don't like green beans then no

to be a great father if I can keep up oh we'll take your Tylenol Grandpa and warm up next time you really think I'm going to be a great father a great father it's not automatic though I was looking at some of those guys today I kept wondering how do they get so angry I mean they didn't start that way how do you even know if you're doing the right thing our sons are going to have a safe home a strong faith and they're going to have something that nobody else has they're going to have us there they are our boy Benjamin and Mark look at the hands oh look at the they look like you oh yeah yeah there are [Music] boys I don't understand we talked about how sometimes with twins one of the babies can be a late bloomer he just doesn't grow as fast as his sibling last time you said that was normal and we'd hoped that the weight discrepancy between baby a and baby B would correct itself with time but he's just not growing Benjamin what does that mean well on one hand there is a very good chance that both babies are normal and healthy and this little gu just smaller or or with this kind of discrepancy we're concerned that it could be something more serious no we decided not to we've waited this long I understand but it could give you some peace of mind is there anything else we can do about it can help you're already doing everything humanly possible we'll have you come in every week now so we can monitor both babies and in the meantime just keep taking care of yourself get plenty of rest we'll see you through this thank you okay okay [Music] don't get any big Ideas slick what are you talking about Cassie she's way out of your league she was just helping me out cuz she feels sorry for you just like everyone else at the school I got to get to class oh sure I just didn't want you getting your hopes up about Cassie see she's always been a real sucker when it comes to lost dogs baby birds charity [Music] [Music] cases sorry no it's okay Court's open where's that other guy passor Graham you had to run out he asked me to lock up we still got another head you pass it here too no grahe ran some camps last summer so I I helped out now I'm just messing around but back in school I used to uh play ball to help me clear my head help me think you know I figured I'd give it another shot think about what there's always something yeah I come out here so I don't have to think just makes things worse well not thinking about your problems doesn't make him go away so what do you do I wish I knew maybe we just got to try our best and have faith things will turn out the way they're meant to I know one thing what we're not leaving here until you miss might be here a [Music] while uh here what's this uh my list on one condition you can't read it Thomas it's nothing crazy well then why can't I read it just okay please okay if someone shows up at our house with a jet ski and you better give me milk and cookies because it's going to be [Music] Santa hey you get L nice are you um how you doing today I'm good good I think I'm going to go get some ketchup though now yeah oh yeah you guys can take my Spath what's [Music] up [Music] for for that hi Jenny they told me you were up here are you okay yeah I'm I'm fine are you okay what's wrong no I'm fine I just wanted to see you well why didn't you call me I would have come home doctor said you had to take it easy that's what I've been doing all week if I didn't get out of the house I was going to go crazy oh I've been so busy here it's okay really you know I had the strangest dream I dreamed that you were watching me while I was sleeping and you looked so worried all I wanted to do was just hold you and tell you everything's okay just a dream you had the same look on your face just a second ago I have a lot on my mind that's all we both do so much so that it's like we put everything else on hold that's not true really you love Christmas the lights the music you look forward to it every year and now it's like you don't even want to talk about it come here every day when I wake up in the morning I want to think about our future and what we'll be like together you and I and our sons and I want to look forward to what's coming I don't want to be afraid of what might happen yeah so do I we'll find a way to do that together you know someone told me recently maybe all we can do is try our best and have faith that everything will turn out the way it's meant to that sounds like good [Music] advice how you feeling I feel good I well I might need to sit down a little bit hey are you hungry because if you are I could go back to the food court and buy probably nothing you could eat I'm fine honey all these people and they're still weeks to go oh speaking of which what do you want for Christmas Kevin yeah it's a giant angel tree the Salvation Army runs a program and the kids make a list of what they want for Christmas and people pick the names and buy whatever they asked for yeah I've heard about this it's a great idea let's do it what let's pick two names off the tree and buy them whatever they ask for H well uh Jenny I don't think we can really afford to okay you just asked me what I want for Christmas this is it this is my gift from you to make two children very happy on Christmas morning Ser is it'll be good practice we're next year with the boys okay your [Music] [Applause] [Music] pick check my new [Music] back I got it [Music] too you in class [Music] Che [Music] see you see [Music] you I take it you haven't seen it seen what give me your phone I must have lost it I thought you should know what's this Vic put it up last night he's a [Music] jerk and what does that make you what be sure to tell your buddy Vic about the funny look on my face when you showed me I'm sure you two will get a good laugh out of that what are you talking [Music] [Music] [Music] Tom Brandt is a new kid at school as you can see by these pictures he is in dire need of food clothing and a life if we get 1,000 followers to this page we will buy Tom a whole new wardrobe and maybe [Music] lunch he's not my buddy told you he's a jerk just another insecure jock that makes himself feel important by bullying other people around fine whatever and just so we're clear I didn't have anything to do with putting that Facebook page up either I hate the way those guys were laughing at you and just so we're clear I'm not some little lost dog I don't need anybody to feel sorry for me what so go find another good cause and leave me alone it's all I want for everybody just to leave me alone the only reason I told you about what Vic was doing is because I wanted you to know that not everyone in the school is like him some of us care about each other but that's okay because you just want to be left alone so hey no problem the next time you think someone's feeling sorry for you take a good look in the [Music] mirror Jenny hey hi he is everything all right you do realize that every time I call now it sounds like you're at the starting line of a 100 yard dash well no come on I was just uh really it's a bad sign when your wife who's expecting twins has to remind you to breathe point taken but I'm fine thank you for asking uh I just wanted to tell you that I did all my shopping for Stephanie who Stephanie the little girl I picked from the angel tree right now from the mall don't tell me you forgot No No I um I had the I have it right here at a paper Angel yeah Kevin you can't leave this to the last minute like you always do the Salvation Army needs the presence in plenty of time before Christmas absolutely besides this might be a good way to get your mind off things yeah I love you I love you too [Music] excuse me hi uh can I get this in a 10 and a half please [Music] and you can just put it on this [Music] card Kevin Amanda my gosh I don't believe it wow it's all great to see you I thought you were in Nashville visiting the folks for Christmas shopping that's great how's the new job oh my gosh I love it and the agency is really starting to take off well I'm sure you had a lot to do with that if I have it's because I learned from my best yeah we were pretty pretty good team maybe we can be again tell me more come what I was going to call you it's not official but we may have a client here in town signing with the agency I told everyone in Nashville about you and well they want to hear your pitch on the account seriously seriously still some hoops to jump through but with my recommendation call me right after the holidays it's great to see you again Kevin great to see you Merry Christmas you too Merry [Music] Christmas hey you'll never guess who I ran into who Amanda when was the last time you saw her I don't know like a couple years it came like a bolt out of the blue she wants you to call huh yeah after the holidays I mean the clock's still ticking maybe this is like an early Christmas present yeah maybe it is hey dinner's on thanks help you you're such a gentleman oh yeah that's me [Music] there he [Music] is [Music] [Music] make me an offer oh no I was just I designed this way back when you don't say my first big contract at least it seemed pretty big at the time they liked it they had it everywhere yeah I remember I'll never forget the first time I walked into a store and saw this took everything I had to keep from doing cartwells down the middle of the aisle well you should have think so how often in life do we honestly appreciate a moment pure and simple under the circumstances uh a cartwheel sounds like just the thing probably right you still in the business yeah though I don't feel very much like doing cartwheels these days yeah just when you think you got it all figured out life comes along throws you a curve uh just because you get the message doesn't mean you should give up what do you mean what message young fell I worked my tail off for 40 years trying to get where I thought I wanted to be big house summer home season tickets to the Titans one day I went home kids were grown my wife was a stranger and that big house just seemed empty my life was like an old puzzle with the pieces scattered all around I didn't know how to put it back together not by myself what'd you do I got the message and here we are hi Honey hi I'll see you at home okay oh don't forget Frank and Janet are bringing the kids over for dinner and then we're having Rachel's recital yes ma'am I'll be there Nancy love you I love you [Music] too you didn't come here to listen to me what can I do for you actually I'm here to get a basketball jersey all right which player ah the paper angel tree oh you've heard of it here let's have a look all right yeah right over here [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] w [Music] I mean I'm no expert but isn't that what they call cyber bullying I don't know maybe try it again I mean shouldn't you be talking to somebody about it like a maybe a teacher what are they going to do about it the moment they ask Vic will delete the page and I'll look like a bigger loser okay what does your family have to say about it all right what did your friend say we're talking about high school remember nobody wants to hang out with the new kid especially when some jock puts a Target on his back you need to tell me in that entire High School no one's reached out to you a kid is sharp as you maybe I'm not as sharp as you think no maybe you need to to reach out to them let them know that there's more to you than just being the new kid how am I supposed to do that did you ever think that maybe there's something guiding Us in everything we do and I mean when when things go wrong and I mean really really wrong there's still a way to get through you just have to trust that feeling guidance from inside [Music] yeah hey Mom mhm when can we get our Christmas tree um I'm not sure hun my my friends already have theirs they've got lights outside and everything like Dad used to put up sometimes yeah I remember we have to get new ornaments and decorations too we left the bars at home or we could go back to get them Sarah you know that we wouldn't have to stay or anything we could just get the ones Tommy and I made for you to hang on the tree and maybe maybe dad's better now maybe every everything would be okay honey I miss him sometimes too but we can't go back what if he forgets me come here no listen listen your father could never ever forget you and every day I pray that he'll get better he can come show you himself how much you mean to him but no

more space before you take the stuff to the Salvation Army like where there's a storage closet down in the basement Leonard's always up for a good cause I'll bet he'll let you keep it there for a few

few days what well they just want to make sure you get plenty of rest and uh they can monitor the twins at the same time but you just said they were fine they are Dr Chan just feels like it'd be a good idea to to um keep an eye on Benjamin just to be [Music] safe safe yeah he's showing signs of stress Kevin he's a fighter Jenny just like his mom and I'll be right here we're going to get through

you're going to lose the business aren't you I'm so sorry me too we have a lot more important things to think about right now why don't you try and get some rest [Music] okay hey it's the kid from the center I told you [Music] about I just started here I didn't really know anybody but uh somebody told me they said there were a lot of nice people at this school and if I just gave them a chance well isn't it true that this whole thing started because you were a victim of cyber bullying from another student it doesn't matter how it started as long as things turned out okay and you've made sure of that you've raised hundreds of donations it wasn't me though what do you mean the way I see it there's something guiding in everything we do and even when things go wrong and I mean really wrong we just got to trust that guidance it's like a hand showing us the way sounds like a great kid Salvation Army I heard about their angel two program it's all about people helping each other without expecting anything back what is it I just fig paper Angel I forgot to deliver the presents Kevin I was on my way with I found out you were here and I I rushed over tomorrow's Christmas Eve I know you
