Snowed-Inn Christmas Page #4

---

This is unbelievable.

We're not going to get to Aspen,

we're going to lose our jobs.

I'm not losing anything.

Let me tell you.

That lady was right.

We need a Christmas miracle.

There's no such thing

as miracles!

It's nice to be

positive during the holidays.

There's no such thing!

Okay?

Well.

I haven't seen such big frowns

since the Christmas

with no snow.

Here.

Thanks.

So, what seems to be

the problem here?

Oh, you don't have to

worry about it.

Our plane was grounded

and we don't have anywhere

to go or stay.

But, you know,

we'll figure it out.

Well, that's quite

a frosty pickle.

That's one way of putting it.

Do you happen to know of

any hotels in the area

that would have vacancy

this close to Christmas?

Funny you should ask, my husband

and I own a small inn in town.

If you need a place to sleep

and a warm meal,

I assure you we are

the coziest place around.

Oh, that just sounds

Miraculous.

Oh, there's Chris now.

Oh, what have we here, my petal?

These kids need a place

to stay for the night.

And I don't think

I know your names.

How rude of me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm Jenna Hudson,

I'm a writer from New York.

Well, I'm not from New York but

I went to NYU for journalism

She asked for your name.

Not your resume.

Columbia.

Hi, guys. I'm Kevin.

Hi, Kevin.

Well, I'm Carol Winters

and this my husband Chris.

Wonderful to meet you both.

We'd be delighted

to have you stay with us.

Absolutely.

No excuses.

We should be going though,

it's going to be dark soon.

I'll go fetch Rudolph.

Like the reindeer?

Oh, don't be silly.

It's what we call our car.

Ah.

Welcome to the Winters Inn.

Oh, wow.

How old is this place?

It's been standing tall

since 1832.

Look at the detail

in that mahogany.

That stained glass window.

My goodness, this could be

the work of Louis David.

Who?

I've always admired

Georgian homes, you know,

they're so symmetrical

and balanced.

Well, somebody knows

their architecture.

You're such a suck up.

I have a subscription to

Architecture Digest, sue me.

You kids must be tired,

we'll get your room ready.

Lucky for you, the Mistletoe

Suite is available for tonight.

What?

Oh, no, no, no.

No, we can't.

We're not together.

I would never ever.

Oh, my god.

Oh, uh, well then,

why are you travelling together

for the holidays?

We're on assignment.

We're both writers for

Epiphany Magazine.

Yeah, I'm supposed to be

in Aspen right now

in a luxury chalet writing

a heartfelt Christmas piece.

I'm supposed to be boarding knee

deep in powder

at a legendary mountain.

And then I was going to have

a holiday cooking cuisine class

with a triple Michelin-star
