Ashley:
Growing up,
this was our Christmas -
me, my mom and
her red convertible,
driving through town,
delivering gifts to those
who needed them the most.
It was our tradition.
You ready, Ashley?
And it made it the most
special time of the year.
Okay, angel bell,
where are you?
Item 7685.
I'm so sorry. I was just
looking for something.
Looks to be in
pretty good condition.
It does.
Except that I think
that I maybe see a dent.
A dent? Where do you see that?
Well, it's hard to see, unless
you're at the right angle.
But, um, you know, that does
depreciate the value, so...
Well, it says right here
in the description...
"mint condition".
Well, I mean, all it takes
is one clumsy hand,
setting it down
on the table and...
Right.
Auctioneer:
Ladies and gentlemen...
please take your seats,
so the bidding can commence.
Good luck.
Auctioneer:
Do I hear $600?
$600. How about $650?
$650. $650 going once.
$650 going twice.
Sold for $650.
All right, our next
item up for bid is an 1875
vintage Christmas angel bell,
and I'm gonna start
the bidding at $100.
$100.
$120.
$150.
Auctioneer: $150.
$150...
$160.
$200.
$250.
Okay, $250 going once.
Going...
$500.
$500.
Do I hear $510?
$510?
$510, anyone?
Okay, going once, twice...
[slamming]
Sold for $500.
[chuckling]
Congratulations.
Oh, thank you.
I assume you're, uh--
you've got some sort of
sentimental connection
to the bell or...
Oh, gosh no. No, no.
It-- it'll double in
value in a couple of years,
so it was worth the price.
So, you're a collector.
No. Estate law. Here.
You should, uh,
give me a call if you ever
need anything appraised.
Well, anyway,
I gotta run.
Enjoy your day.
Oh...
Just about forgot.
So, was that bell for you
or for a client?
Well, does it even matter?
It's clearly gone to
someone who doesn't know
that there's so much more to it
than just its dollar value.
That bell has such
a great story behind it,
which I'm willing to bet he
knows nothing about.
Come on, Ashley.
We've been working together
in this industry for what?
Five years?
I know what a hard time you have
letting go
of some of the Christmas
antiques you find.
Well, I'm just collecting them,
you know, for my shop,
which may be happening soon
because there's a perfect space
that might be opening up
for lease soon.
Oh, that's great.
You let me know
when you're ready to make the
move and I'll have my crew
pack and transport all your
pieces for you.
Thanks so much, Gabby.
Of course.

[phone ringing]
Hey, Charlotte.
How are you?
Is everything okay?
Um, it is, except your
uncle broke his foot.
What? What happened?
Oh, he tripped over
a violin case.
He'll be fine, but, um, I'm just
so busy this time of year,
I can't be home
to help him out.
Say no more. Tell him
I'll drive out tomorrow.
Actually, um...
could you surprise him?
Maybe just show up
and say you came
home for Christmas.
Oh, uh, you need me to
come home for all of Christmas?
Oh, that would
be great, Ashley.
Thank you.
It'll be so good to see you.
And it'll be great
to see you both, too.
All right,
I'll see you guys tomorrow.
Great. Bye.

[knocking]
Coming!
Coming.
Uncle Tony! Surprise!
I'd say it is!
Come in! Come in!
[chuckling]
So, what brings you
back to Robinsville?
Well, I figured,
since I'm always away
at these Christmas auctions,
I thought maybe it was time.
And it had nothing to do
with my little accident?
Oh, wow. No.
I-I just noticed that.
What happened?
Oh, just, uh, a little
music lesson mishap.
Hmm. Well, then,
you should probably
open up my Christmas
present a little early.
Your presence is the greatest
present I could ask for,
but I do love presents.
[chuckling]
Now, this...
is a walking stick.
[both chuckling]
Yeah, it was,
uh-- it was used
by a distinguished
British general
after he returned
from the First World War.
And clearly, now,
you could probably use it
to help you get around.
Not that you should
be getting around too much.
Well, how about--[door opening]
No, he should not.
Aha! Uh-huh.
And there she is.
[chuckling]
Should I be asking how
Ashley might have known
that I would possibly
need a walking stick?
Don't be so suspicious.
It is so good to see you.
You too.
Let me just, uh, put the
casserole in the oven to warm up
and then you can tell
us all your news.
Sounds good.
Mmm.
[chuckling]
Look at this.
[chuckling]
Very nice. Very nice.
Yes. It's growing on me.
See? I can do dancing.
Okay, well,
take it easy.
Singing ...ke it easy.
Coming around--Oh! Oh...
[chuckling]
I'm all right.
[chuckling]
I am all right.
Okay, good.
Mmm!
Charlotte, I wish you had
a shop in Seattle.
Oh, I haven't expanded yet.
Speaking of which,
aren't you two celebrating
ten years together?
Yes, we are.
December 23rd marks
the anniversary
of when we first met.
So, why haven't you made it an
official anniversary yet?
Because it's been a perfect
ten years,
so why change a good thing?
[knocking]
Oh! No, no, no.
Don't you go anywhere.
That's what I'm here for.
Ahh. I knew it.
Hey...
You?
What are you doing here?
Well, it's nice to see
you again, too.
Is that Duncan?
Yes, it is!
Get on in here.
Hey.
Duncan, this is
my lovely niece Ashley.
Your niece?
-Mm-hmm.
-Oh.
Ashley, this is Duncan Morris.
He is my estate lawyer.
