- Hello!
- Welcome.
Have you seen Miss Langford?
No?
No.
I'm looking for Miss Langford.
Have you seen her?
No. No. Sorry.
- (laughter)
- Hi! Uh, Miss Langford?
- No.
- Sorry.
Sorry.
Mr. Pittman!
Excuse me. Mr. Pittman?
- Yeah, just give me one second?
- Uh, uh...
I'm Mrs. Worthington.
Chair of the Toys for Tots
committee?
- Yeah, just... just... let me just finish this up here.
- Uh, uh...
Miss Langford is representing
the Home & Hearth Gifts company
at this event, is she not?
She certainly is.
Almost done here.
Well, she was supposed to do
her presentation 20 minutes ago!
I-I-I can't find her anywhere.
Yes!
Now that's how we close it!
I'm sorry. Hi.
What was it you wanted?
Mr. Pittman,
where is your fiance?
(cheering)
(man):
Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!
(lively music)
(cheering)
Alright! Ten out of ten
from the Russian judge.
Thank you. Thank you.
Years of gymnastics.
Not easily forgotten.
Oh, thank you.
For my favourite charity. (shutters
clicking) (gasping softly)
Toys For Tots thanks you
for your generosity.
(bells jingling)
(shutter clicking)
I'll double it
if you can vault that.
- Oh, forget it.
- Chicken?
I'll quadruple it.
That's a lotta toys
for a lotta tots.
(girl):
Come on, Ellen!
(man):
She's gonna do it!
(all cheering)
Fine. But I want that check
immediately.
I'll write it now.
Ooh!
Uh!
- Miss Langford!
- Oh! Ah! Ah!!
- (murmurings)
- What...?
(groaning)
(shutters clicking)
(chuckling)
(man sighing):
"Party Heiress..."

..."where socialite
Ellen Langford,
heiress to the Home & Hearth
Gifts retail fortune,
was up to the very same hijinks
that gained her the "Party
Heiress" nickname to begin with...
Alice, is my daughter in yet?
No, she's in the boardroom.
Sir, shall I get her...
No, I will get her.
Hey.
Now, I have been thinking.
I think it's time
for a snappier tag line.
"The Home of Heartfelt Gifts"?
It's a little old-school.
Right now,
this is the only tag line
I'm interested in.
- Oh.
- Yeah.
Oh. I just spent an hour
on the phone
with Mrs. Worthington...
talking her off a ledge!
It was for charity.
Someone dared me.
Someone "dared" you?!
How old are you, 12?!
Ellen,
when you are out in public,
you are an ambassador
for this company.
And once you are CEO,
you will be the face
of this company.
So...
you've made up your mind...
about retiring?
I thought that I had.
Now I'm not certain that I dare!
I need to leave this place
in the hands
of someone I can trust.
I'm sorry.
You can do better than this.
Please. For all of our sakes.
(horns honking)
(Jim):
I don't know, Alice.
Maybe it's my fault.
(sighing)
You know, after Nora died, I...
let Ellie get away
with too much.
You know, to make up for it.
You think
I... spoiled her a bit?
No. Doesn't every kid
get a Ferrari for Christmas?
(laughter)
Funny.
I almost forgot...
...the most important thing.
It's your turn
to write the Christmas letter.
Oh.
(chuckling)
Have you given any thought to what you're
going to write in your letter this year?
Hey, Dad.
Sorry, Alice. I was wondering
if you wanted to grab lunch.
