Four Christmases Page #3

Is there another airline...

...that you're affiliated with?

Like a sister airline?

-No, I'm sorry.

-Do you have a cousin airline?

How about one your

airline's filled out before?

The FAA has ruled that bay

area fog is simply too thick.

No flights are coming in

and no flights are going out...

...until at least

tomorrow morning.

Let's see how travelers

are coping in all of this task.

We have a couple over here.

Excuse me, sir?

Where are you headed

for this Christmas?

We're live on the air.

You look

dressed for vacation.

We're taking...

And we take the trips.

We'll take a different trip.

What he's trying to say is

that we plan a trip every year.

This is actually

ruining our Christmas.

You must be pretty upset.

Are you visiting family?

This is Kate.

Hi, Mom.

I know, Mom. All the flights

were cancelled.

-They're not...

-It's Dad.

They're not sure

if it'll be today.

You want me to answer it?

Do I answer or no?

Do I pick it up or not?

Yes, I know. I understand

you have feelings.

What? What do you want me to do?

I don't know what this means.

He's gonna

give you a big hug.

-I'm not hugging anybody.

-He's excited.

-We'll see you at noon.

-Noon?

Kate, are you crazy?

Did you commit us to go?

What did you want me to say?

They saw us on the news.

We're not

inoculating babies in Burma.

-No...

-We're stuck here.

What did you say to your dad?

I told my dad that we'll

be going over there.

Don't compare

your situation.

-You kidding?

-There's new stuff...

...that you're missing.

My Dad's a unique

animal. Your mother's not.

My dad, your mom.

My mom, your dad.

Great.

We'll see

Know what this means?

What you committed us to?

I know exactly

what this means.

Brad.

Baby.

I don't want to fight.

I don't wanna fight either.

-I hate this.

-We never fight. I'm sorry.

I love you.

This is what our families do

and what happens.

Mother makes me crazy

when I talk to her.

You're right.

Here's all we got to do.

Get through this

Four Christmases...

...as quickly and as painlessly

as possible.

Exactly. Promise me that no

matter what happens today...

...we'll still

have each other.

-Honey, of course we will.

-Okay.

If one of these

houses gets too intense...

-...we'll need a strategy.

-Yes.

We'll need a word that

means it's time to leave.

A safe word,

what it should be?

It's a good idea.

Mistletoe.

-Mistletoe is really good.

-Okay.

By the way, my father's house

can get uncomfortable.

Please do not feel embarrassed

if you feel the need...

...to pull the cord early,

say Mistletoe...

...if this house

gets too uncomfortable.

-Okay.

-Even if we're there for 10 min.
