Christmas in the Ballroom (2025) Movie Script
1
Live from Los Angeles,
it's Dance Steps' judges
Bella Fox and Ben Sparks,
bringing you some vintage
Christmas cheer!
Hannah!
Nice lipstick shade!
Your glam is perfect.
Thanks, but I can't wait for
this Christmas show to be done.
Sounds like you need
a break from the spotlight.
Oh, I can't wait for you
to come home for Christmas
and we can hang out
like old times.
I forgot to tell you.
Ben can't come out
with me this year.
He's heading out early to
go skiing with Antonia
in Jackson Hole.
How could he not want to hang
out with not one but two
of his favorite
dance partners?
Honestly, he's been
acting really strange.
I don't know if the fame
has gone to his head,
but something is off.
I'm sure it's just the
pressure from the show.
Just, tell him to bring Antonia
when they're done skiing.
I did. He said maybe they'd
come on Christmas Eve.
Maybe he's buying you
an expensive Christmas gift.
I haven't been his
girlfriend for years.
You know that.
We're more like
brother and sister.
And you also know that he
just proposed to Antonia
over Labor Day weekend.
I do.
I guess they're cute together.
Plus, we're not buying
gifts this year.
We're donating to a good cause.
And if I remember
correctly, it was your idea.
It is a good idea, isn't it?
Oh Will! Come here.
Come say hi to my
best friend, Bella.
She's also the Lead
Judge on "Dance Steps".
Bella, this is Will.
Hi.
Hi Will. Are you one
of Hannah's dancers?
Oh, no not a chance.
Will's my landlord
at the studio.
Best one ever. Mr. Fix It here.
But great idea, Bella, maybe
we can get him to dance.
Oh, no.
I may be handy but I promise
you I have two left feet.
No one has
two left feet.
You just need the
right dance teacher.
You're probably right.
Hey!
Nice to meet you, Bella.
Nice to meet you, Will.
Oh that was my five minute call.
I'm going to have to go.
Oh, wait! I have news!
My studio got into
the National Snowball Dance
Competition this year!
That's amazing!
Congratulations!
Thanks.
Okay, break a leg.
Okay. Mwah! Bye.
All right, folks.
We will be going
live in one minute.
If everyone can remain
in their seats.
Antonia!
I love you, but
what did you do?
Ben, I know this is
going to hurt Bella
but this was supposed to be
announced four weeks ago.
We can't
wait until the finale.
My promotion is going to
take away from the big win.
Fine. Look, I agree.
We don't want to
take the spotlight
off the winning couple.
We've known this is the right
change for a long time now.
Ratings
are going down and
the show needs a refresh.
If we just wait
until the season is over,
then we can do all the talk
shows, release a statement,
talk about all
the changes then.
You promised that you were
going to talk to Bella
when you found
a good time.
But you haven't found one.
You two are always laughing
about some ridiculous
inside joke.
Do you think there's ever a
good time to tell my best friend
that you're taking
her job as Lead Judge.
And announcing it on air
is going to hurt her
more than anything.
And that's the last thing
I want to do to Bella,
especially at Christmas.
Look, let's just not do this
while the cameras are rolling.
Wait until the
season is over, please.
It has to be done, Ben.
The show needs someone
younger in the lead seat.
It's not personal.
Oh, come on.
Of course it's personal.
She has no idea.
Oh, she has an idea all right.
Bella!
I didn't want it
to be this way.
Oh, you didn't
want to be Lead Judge?
Or you didn't want
me to find out
unless the cameras
were rolling?
The drama is at
the judges' table!
This is a Christmas
ratings miracle!
Let's go live! Go live!
Bella look. We've been
friends since we were kids.
I should have told
you about this.
Why didn't you just talk to me?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
You have betrayed me so much.
Please, Bella, don't...
No, just no.
Don't worry.
You can still sit at the
judges' table with me.
Go break a leg. For real!
Bella, come on! Please!
All right, folks,
we're going live in one minute.
If everyone can
remain in their seats.
Hello?
What is the matter
with those two?
They couldn't have talked
with you privately?
I guess being
demoted is great live TV.
At least I wasn't
actually fired.
Well, they should have
at least talked with you.
Obviously, it would
have been awkward but
better than public
embarrassment.
A million times
better than being shocked
on prime time television.
With online replays
around the clock.
I just... Ohhhh!
Thanks, I was trying
not to think about that.
You know what you need?
A white Christmas!
The snow's been
falling for days here!
Special order from Santa.
Change your flight.
Come earlier!
I can't.
The finale is this week.
It would be unprofessional
of me to miss it.
"Dance Steps" just turned
your world upside down.
No one's expecting
you to put on a smile
and pretend you didn't
practically just get fired
in front of the
whole country!
Well, world, actually.
Thanks for the reminder.
You need your real best friend,
not some pretend LA friends.
And you can stay with
me as long as you like.
Well, I can't argue with that.
Okay.
Excellent! Upstate New York
here you come.
You can eat all the
Christmas cookies you want.
Just get on a plane pronto.
Oh, and, you can help get
my students get ready
for the Snowball Competition.
What?
It'll help take your
mind off all the drama.
Have a great flight!
Hi!
- Will?
- Bella. Hi.
Hi. My phone said this
shop was close by,
and I was hoping it was nice.
It's gorgeous in there, yeah.
If you're going for Hannah,
don't forget,
she loves sparkly.
Always sparkly.
Yeah.
I think Hannah
would like that one.
That one is gorgeous, yeah.
I'm going to go get that.
Nice seeing you.
Yeah. Nice to see you too.
Ahhhhhh!
I missed you so much, Bella!
I've missed you so much too!
And all the snow.
Here.
It's beautiful.
And sparkly!
Thank you! Come on in.
They should be ashamed
of themselves,
blindsiding you like that.
Yeah. I never want to go
outside in public ever again.
Don't say that.
Your big, beautiful life
can never be reduced to a
worst day at work ever meme.
You know what you need?
You need to dance!
It's been such a long day.
I really don't
feel like dancing.
Oh, come on.
Our favorite movie!
We can do the sisters scene.
It will cheer you up.
Okay.
Oh, if Miss Bernadette
could see us now.
She'd say fake it
until you make it.
Let your light shine!
True happiness is
not in the spotlight.
It's who you share
your dance with.
Oh! We need wine!
Yes, we do.
Augh!
Morning sleepyhead!
Well, I'm still
on west coast time.
It's still early for me.
String light emergency over.
I got to go back to the office.
Ah, Will, actually, maybe
you should stick around.
Bella's going to help
train the students
and get them ready
for the Snowball.
You might be able to
pick up a thing or two.
Hannah, no. I can't.
I can't do it.
Don't tell me it's too soon.
Oh come on. She's
probably still reeling.
The humiliating
public backstabbing
is all on Antonia
and the producers.
And Ben.
You did nothing wrong.
Well I still feel awful.
I've never lost a job before.
Please Bella.
My students have been working
so hard and the annual Snowball
is my studio's biggest
chance to get noticed.
You might even reconnect with
what you love most about dance.
Your spirit does comes
alive in competition.
Okay. But, it's
against my will.
I am your witness, Bella.
Ah, you're a life saver.
The dancers should be here soon
and the music is all cued up.
I just have to go pick up
some props for the Snowball
and some last minute
Christmas gifts!
Okay... Bye, Hannah!
You're welcome!
Good morning.
Morning.
It's nice of you
subbing in for Hannah.
I'm sure her students
will love having
a famous dancer
teaching them today.
I'm not sure about famous.
I love teaching and
helping people.
That's my favorite
thing to do.
Yeah?
Did you know that
Hannah and I
were going to open
up our own studio?
Oh?
Yeah, we were going to
have this huge space
and have big dance classes
and Saturday night dances.
That sounds like fun.
Yeah, it would have been fun.
Hey, how are you with
really old boom boxes?
Oh, I can give it a try but
I think the 90's called
and they want it back.
Do you know we use
to actually train
to a live piano in the 90's.
Wow. I think the 1890's
are calling now?
No?
Okay, funny guy.
You know what?
I think you should
take my lesson.
I want to see those
two left feet of yours.
Yeah, not a chance. Sorry.
What, you just come
here for the coffee?
Yeah, the coffee and
the Christmas
decoration emergencies.
Just don't tell the head
office that I'm pulling
some superintendent
duties, that's all.
Really? Why?
Oh no, it's a joke.
I'm actually the head
of the management group.
You know, selling
and buying buildings.
Okay, so why does Hannah make
you out to be the handyman?
Just like the same reason you
got roped into helping for
the Snowball Competition.
She is a very persuasive woman.
You know her.
She's your friend.
That's true. One minute
she was cheering me up
and the next minute I'm
stuck teaching her students
for the Snowball competition.
I have to say she's pretty good.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
But now I'm going
to need some coffee.
- Do you want some.
- Please. Thank you.
Thanks.
You know Bella, I wanted
to tell you something.
I'm very sorry, very sorry
about what happened
on your show.
And on top of everything during
the Christmas finals too.
This Antonia is something.
She stole your job.
She's... terrible.
Well, she didn't
exactly steal it.
Wait. You watch the show?
Yeah, every week.
With my grandma.
You're her favorite.
That is so sweet.
Ah, they really made a
huge mistake replacing you.
Well, that was
nice of you to say.
I'm not trying to
say that to be nice.
Your career...
Is full of
accomplishments.
See you in a bit.
Hey. Wait.
Do you think you
could stick around?
I might need some help with
this impossibly outdated tech.
Wow! How could I say no to that?
I'll be in my office
if you need me.
Okay. Bye.
Hi, everyone!
Hi, um, I'm Bella Fox.
And Hannah has
asked me to fill in for her
and get you ready for the
Snowball Competition.
Okay, everyone,
so let's warm up.
Bella!
Adam! You have made my day.
Are you okay?
I'm so sorry for what
they did to you on TV.
Yeah, I'm okay.
I'm much better now
I'm with my friends.
So Hannah talked
you into teaching?
Yeah. I didn't
feel like I was ready,
but with you as the assistant
teacher, I think I am.
I know you're ready. Shall we?
Okay. All right.
So let's get started
with the salsa.
I'll put some music on, if I
can get this thing to work.
There we go.
So we're going to come
forward with the left foot.
Six, seven and...
One, two, three.
And one, two three.
Very good.
We're looking great, guys.
Let's take it to the side.
To the side.
Excellent.
Looking good.
I know Reba and Alfredo
never have the rhythm
but they do have a spark.
I'm sure there was some
stepping on toes, though.
Literally.
There was but you've
taught them well.
Thanks.
I'm super stressing
about the competition.
I feel like they are ready but
some of them are really
lacking in confidence.
And I think we're
running out of time.
They been learning from the
one and only Hannah Kyle.
So, they can do it.
Yeah. You're right.
And with your help
and my persistence,
we'll be spectacular.
It'll be fun!
Except I can't stop
thinking about the show.
I know. You love that show.
Yeah...
Let me guess. Your producer.
Yeah.
Stick to your guns, Bella.
I'm sorry about all this, Bella.
We were going to talk
to you next week
about your position
at the judges' table.
Announce it on the finale.
Hook the audience
in for next season.
Some hook.
You practically fired me.
Listen, Bella.
You are a great judge.
And the love you have for dance
really shines through when
you talk to contestants.
Thank you. But?
But...
The people upstairs think
it's time for a rebrand.
Ah, you know, a refresh.
Someone younger, a pop
star who can barely dance?
That was made very
clear to me on live TV.
I'm a meme, Darla!
This is not how we wanted
to launch the news,
so here's the spin...
It's a new chapter in "Dance
Steps'" family scrapbook.
It's good you got away!
You've been working
too hard for too long.
You need time
out of the spotlight.
Your family here misses you!
Well, maybe the
ratings are missing me?
Okay, you're right.
The audience isn't
loving Antonia right now.
But we can capitalize on this.
Oh, God, that sounded
awful out loud.
Look, I've been trying
to talk to the network
to delay the finale
until after Christmas.
No guarantees.
But, the
show must go on,
and you know we still
have you under contract.
I'm sorry, but this is all
sounding so ridiculous.
Okay. It's the holidays.
Let me work this out.
You go enjoy yourself,
don't worry about this.
And have fun with
your friends!
Sorry. Insensitive.
Your friends stabbed you
in the back.
But okay, hey, have fun
with different friends.
Come back in the new year.
Sit at the table with us.
Hannah...
Let's crush this
Snowball Competition.
I'm in. I'm so in!
Yesssss!
Toe, heel, step...
Let's speed it up a little.
Toe, heel, step. Toe, heel,
step. Toe, heel, step...
All right, everyone.
Great work today.
The Snowball Dance
Competition is a week away.
So make sure you have your
costumes in sparkling shape.
That means you, Marcus!
Oh, and if anyone
wants private lessons,
talk to Bella.
She doesn't seem to have any
pressing work engagements.
Very funny.
All right.
We'll see you at next class.
Make sure you all come because
we have a lot of work to do.
Okay? Bye.
Okay, do we have any actually
trained dancers here?
I don't know yet.
Will swears his neighbor
Andre can dance,
so he's going
to talk to him.
Hey I'm Andre. Will sent me.
I know who you are, so
you must be Hannah Kyle.
I'm Hannah. Welcome!
I've never done the
Snowball Competition before,
but Will said I might be
able to go with your school
if I'm good enough.
Yeah, well, show
us what you've got.
Bella Fox just spoke to me!
I'll get right on it.
He might be our ringer.
He might be a Christmas miracle.
We might actually
win this thing.
That's great, Andre!
Keep it going.
First things first.
Who are you going
to dance with?
You want me to dance
at the Snowball?
Of course!
I can't dance.
I'm the studio owner.
Well, you and I both know I
might have to leave soon.
Let me talk to your agent.
Those people did you wrong.
You're all doing great.
And Andre,
welcome to the Snowball team.
Great work, everybody!
The Snowball Trophy is ours!
Oh! Great, you're here.
I need a new step
for the Snowball.
Can you help me out?
I just need a body
to figure it out on.
- Hold me.
- Holding.
Okay.
You're going to take a
step forward on this foot.
Forward... Good!
Back...
Now, let's grab my shoulder...
Come forward... Good!
Now you're going
to dip me, so...
Dip... Good!
And then spin around.
And then over...
And voila!
Well...
Maybe now you can
do something for me.
Will you come with me
to my office Christmas
party tomorrow?
It's a little last minute.
And, um, I don't have
anything to wear.
What? Hannah can lend
you something sparkly.
Yeah, she does love sparkly
and she loves to shop, so...
So it's a yes?
Yeah. So now do me a favor?
I was terrible at this.
Can you please show
me one more time.
Okay.
I'm still holding.
Will's a great guy.
You approve?
Pftt!
Okay, so I didn't approve of
Ben when you were dating him
but maybe I was a bit jealous
that you were in a relationship
and I wasn't.
Nice self awareness.
Will is everything you
want and you know it.
So just embrace the flirting
and forget about the public
humiliation double whammy!
Well, the internet
exists, Hannah.
You know what I mean.
Getting fired from a job is a
huge hit to the self esteem.
But you are a vibrant,
beautiful, graceful,
intelligent...
Okay, thanks for the pep talk
but Will's waiting
and I have to go.
Ahh...
What?
Just, ah...
Try this on.
Yeah.
Hi!
Wow.
You look amazing.
Thank you. You look great too.
Let's go.
I... I have to
tell you something.
Uh huh?
I loved dancing with you.
You're an incredible teacher.
You deserve to be the number
one judge on that show.
The expert voice.
Yeah, well I'm afraid
the online clips
would say a
different story.
Listen, I'm serious.
What they did to
you was horrible.
But all the way to the end,
you kept your grace
under the pressure.
You really think so?
Yeah!
I mean, as professional
as anyone can be
under the
circumstances, yeah.
Bella, you are all class.
Thank you.
That really means a lot.
Whoop!
Are they your colleagues?
Ah, yeah yeah.
It's always the one
you least expect that
let loose at a
Christmas party.
That is true.
So tell me something I would
least expect about you?
- Me?
- Yeah.
Oh wow...
Least expected...
I have one.
I sponsor a chimpanzee
named Isabel
at a refuge down
in Florida.
I have a picture of
her on the fridge.
I will bring it tomorrow.
Yeah, it's pretty
interesting.
I get a postcard
from time to time.
You know, it's a pretty low
maintenance relationship.
My high maintenance
relationship was racing.
Ah.
You know, Indy cars.
Do you still race?
Actually, no, I
stopped last year.
Were you good?
Kind of.
Okay, I bet you
were really good.
But why did you stop?
Well, some of the other drivers
got into very bad accidents, so
I stopped before it was me.
I saved some of my
winnings and, you know,
started to buy properties.
Well, I'm sure
your Grandma Grace
is really happy
about that.
Grace was thrilled, for sure.
Listen, now tell me
something random about you.
Once I was on a beach, I was
swimming in the ocean
and over a hundred
jelly fish stung me.
It made the news
and everything.
What! Where?
On my bum.
Where?
Oh. In Australia.
Where everything can kill you.
Right, in France, we only
have snails, so we good.
But here, only fresh lakes
so no jelly fish in sight.
Another reason I
love it here so much.
Hey, I saw an article today.
Well, you're not
going to be thrilled.
"The Ten Men Bella
Fox Should Date."
Oh my goodness.
Guess what? I never
made the cut!
Pretty disappointed,
but, hey, anyway...
Well I'd say that's just
really poor journalism!
Uh huh. I agree.
Who's ready for karaoke?
So you say
you don't dance.
But do you karaoke?
- Are you going to sing?
- Yes!
Deck the halls with
boughs of holly
La la la la la la la la la
Tis the season to be jolly
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la
la la la la!!!
I can't believe you didn't know
the words to "Deck the Halls".
I'm sorry, I'm French.
But by the way you were great.
You were following that
bouncing ball like a champ.
I tried.
I meant to ask you.
Are the dancers for the
Snowball Competition
working out?
They're working so hard.
They're so dedicated.
It's amazing.
Okay. But what I meant to ask
is do they have the moves?
Can they win?
You seem awfully invested
in this competition
for someone who
doesn't dance.
I'm an athlete. I
love to compete.
You know, athletes
make great dancers.
Thank you.
Well, I did dance once.
But at my own high school prom.
But that was it.
What about you?
Ah, my mom put me into
dance when I was four.
And I loved it.
And then Ben and I
got partnered up
when we were teenagers.
Ben. You used to date?
Well, we dated a long time ago.
We were just kids and
we moved to America
and got onto "Dance
Steps" and then Antonia,
she joined the show
about a year ago.
And, you know what?
I hate to admit it but they're
actually perfect together.
So hold on.
You were all friends until...
Until they stabbed
me in the back.
But, that's all behind me now.
And I just want
to say thank you
for bringing me here tonight.
Because I've actually
had a really good time.
I'm very happy that you came.
Do you want to raid
the dessert buffet?
Yes!
Let's go!
I hope we can do this again.
Bella, look, I know you're
going through a lot lately.
You don't have to...
What I mean is if you
need to talk, I'm here.
I really appreciate that.
- Au revoir.
- Au revoir.
Coming up, the
career triangle
that rocked the
"Dance Steps" world!
Ben Sparks and Antonia Baker
sit down here with me,
the one and only Simon Leman.
We'll be
back in a minute.
And I know you can't wait!
It is so inappropriate
to do this on television!
Like, how can you bare
your feelings to a camera!
Yeah, I thought they
were my friends.
Yeah, before the whole
"et tu Brute" betrayal.
Are you sure you want to go
back into that fishbowl?
Let me guess, your producer?
You have some weird sixth
sense, you know that, right?
But, yes.
It's Darla pretending to care.
For what it's worth,
I'm not pretending.
I really want you to be happy.
Audience, please welcome,
Ben Sparks and Antonia Baker.
Ben, we know these are
difficult times for you.
Do you still actually have
a friendship with Bella Fox?
Yes, Simon, thankfully,
I think I do.
Okay, because
you actually stabbed her
in the back professionally.
I truly am grateful to
have Bella as a friend.
We've been friends for
over thirty years.
We competed in
Ballroom together,
we were kids in the
same ballet class.
But, yes, I should have
communicated better,
and I'm doing my
best to fix that.
But Bella and I, we're really
important to each other.
Okay, because actually
my sources say
you're no longer
on speaking terms.
Is that correct?
No, no it's not.
Look, if you ask me, I think
the pressures of the show,
they started to take
a toll on Bella.
And I'd notice how her
inner spirit had changed.
And you're sure it wasn't you?
Again, I should have
communicated better,
but Bella and I, we'll
always be friends.
Our parents are friends.
Her aunt was our coach.
She really is like
a sister I never had.
Does this seem cold to you?
This seems cold.
Antonia, now
that you're the lead judge
on "Dance Steps",
tell us how does that feel?
Oh, I love the show.
Everyone is so wonderful.
The crew, the couples,
just everyone.
And I'm determined to be
the best lead judge
this show has ever had.
Even if that means your...
Friend Bella Fox is out?
I didn't want to hurt Bella.
It's just business.
I do miss her.
Well,
what would you say to Bella
if she were here today?
Look right in that camera.
I'd say come back to your
"Dance Steps" family, Bella.
I miss you at the table!
And what would
you say to her, Ben?
Bella, take the break you need.
Dance every day.
Find what it is that
truly makes you happy.
Then when you do,
come back to us.
We really care
about you, Bella.
And that's our
show today everybody.
Give it up for Ben and Antonia.
We will see you on Friday.
All right everyone,
you're doing great.
I'm so happy with
all your hard work.
Sorry. Sorry.
Work! Sorry.
Bella and I
have made our decisions
about the competition.
George and Liz,
you have the most beautiful
waltz I've seen this year.
Share that
with the world.
Marcus and Maureen,
you're a pair.
Hannah, I just found out
I might have to work the
day of the competition.
I'm going to try not to
but you know how it is.
I can't lose this job.
Yeah, me too.
I'm so busy at the
post office right now.
They might have me
work the night shift.
Okay, well, Bella might be
able to fill in for Maureen.
Andre, can you practice
with Maureen, as well,
just in case Marcus
can't make it.
Of course! I'll make
you proud Ms. Kyle.
You already do.
Everyone else, you can find
your names outside on the list.
You all have a place to
have fun at the Snowball.
Congratulations!
We're still covered.
We have strong dancers in
all the big three events.
A win would really help with
enrollment so we just need
to drill down on all
of those dances.
I've got you covered.
Thank you.
We'll be good.
Ready to decorate?
Definitely. But Hannah owes
us big time for this one.
Might get us on the nice list.
I like the way you're thinking.
Oh, I didn't know what
I was getting into.
No you didn't!
Christmas
It's Christmas
Christmas
It's Christmas
The world is
tired of waiting
It's time for celebrating
With all the people we love
All our friends
and all our family
Gathered round the tree
And feel the spirits above
Christmas [Christmas]
It's Christmas [Christmas]
It's Christmas
Dance baby
Ugh. This picture is more
annoying every time I see it.
Can I be corny for a
second and just say
how wonderful it is to have
you here for Christmas.
Bella?
It's really nice having
you here for Christmas.
Bella! Where'd you go?
Sorry! I love being here, too.
Saved by the bell!
Thanks for these.
Will brought us fancy coffees!
I came here to let her know
about all this decorating
she got us to do at the studio.
You're part of the
dance community, Will.
Community helps community.
Now sit
I will pay you in cookies.
I'm taking mine to go.
Here you go. Have a cookie.
Thank you.
This is so good.
C'est superbe!
Ah, oui!
I'm sorry. I hope
I'm not interrupting?
No. We're just relaxing.
I was trying to find something
to watch on TV, but...
Here. Find us something.
Okay.
There's racing
this late in the day?
It's an old replay.
A great race.
I love watching
my friends drive.
We text between
races, talk sometimes.
I'm not on the team anymore
but they're still my team,
you know?
Yeah, it's kind of like
that in dancing too.
- Yeah?
- Uh huh.
I can't believe how much fun
that was watching racing.
And, um, team captain here.
You must miss it.
Yeah.
These are dedicated
people, you know.
You don't go far in the field
if you're not passionate.
Driven, you mean?
Touche.
What about you?
Why did you stop competing?
You don't have to tell me.
It's just that you danced
all over the world.
It's must have been a lot fun.
It was so much fun.
Well, we got a
call from a lady,
kind of like a TV legend.
And to be honest, Ben and I
were just sick of traveling.
Makes sense. Why not TV.
I bet the camera loved you
right from your first audition.
No. I was so nervous.
Of course.
You were out of
your comfort zone.
You're not on the
dancing floor anymore.
I hope you never look back.
You're really good
at what you do.
Let's watch another race.
Okay.
You're up early!
I'm still half asleep.
Are you too excited
for Christmas to sleep?
Very funny.
I'm off to the studio
to do new choreography
for your Snowball Competition.
Oh yeah. Cheers to that!
Right behind you.
Just finishing my coffee.
Oh yeah, Hannah! I'll see
you at the 10 o'clock class!
Okay bye.
Oh Will! I didn't expect to
see you here so early.
Ah, my
breakfast meeting got canceled
so I thought I'd drop by.
I hope it's okay?
Yeah, of course it's okay.
We love having you here.
Yeah, I love to come here
and relax, decompress.
Oh. De - com - press.
Okay. Got it.
You saw me.
Saw you what?
I normally like it
when people cannot lie.
But today, I would not
mind if you didn't see
that humiliating display of,
I don't know what it was!
Humiliating?
More like pure joy.
I've seen a lot of dancing
and you are amazing.
- Really?
- Uh huh.
Okay. Question.
Answer honestly.
Sure.
Do you enjoy dancing?
I... guess so.
I saw you.
I know you love it.
Yes I do love dancing.
When I was twelve years old,
I gathered all the courage
in the world to ask a girl
to dance with me at school.
All the other boys were
shuffling their feet
from one to the other.
I couldn't help
but bust a move.
Even my best friend
made fun of me.
So for me, that was it.
Oh, well kids can be so mean.
Especially when my braces
were showing so much.
Do you know how
wonderful it was
to see you dancing without
a care in the world?
- All right, dancer boy.
- Whoa!
Dance with me.
I'll lead. Don't worry.
Thank you. I'm ready.
So we're going to go forward.
One, two, three...
Look at this. We're dancing!
Just that.
Yeah, just that.
One, two, three...
One, two, three...
Wow, look at you go.
You're a natural.
I have the best teacher.
You're looking so good.
Everyone's doing
such a great job.
Fantastic!
All right, that's it for today.
And remember to hydrate!
- So.
- So?
How's the search
for a partner going?
What?
You need a dance partner
for the Snowball.
Well, I may have found
myself a ringer.
Hmmm. You don't say?
Well, it's early days but
we seem to be in step.
Well, that's how all
the best dances start.
One foot in front of the other.
Your secret admirer?
No. Darla. My old life calling.
Simon Leman
wants your side of the story.
You know what?
I need to face this.
Right now.
Okay. All right.
Well that's almost it
for our show today.
But before we go, I have
a last minute surprise,
a surprise you've been
waiting for, Dance Watchers.
Just like I have.
Right now, Bella Fox is
joining us from the east coast.
And we'll see where she is
on the forgiveness spectrum.
Hello Bella!
Hi Simon.
I can hear from your
voice that you're in pain
from this career sabotage.
Well, I'm not going to lie.
It was a difficult night.
And you had no idea the
show wanted to make changes?
I had no idea.
And it hurt more than it needed
to because it was so public.
And I was embarrassed.
Well, with friends
like Antonia and Ben,
who needs enemies, right?
What would you like
to say to your
former friends and
current judges?
I'd have to say...
Thank you!
Excuse me?
I really mean it.
A sincere thank you.
I am in a good place.
I'm exploring connections
with people outside
of the spotlight.
And I'm happy.
Oh, any connections
in particular?
Well, it's too soon.
But if you love dance,
make sure you check out
this year's Snowball.
And keep on dancing! Bye.
Bye-ee!
Yes! You're amazing Bella.
You caught them all by surprise.
Me too.
It's so fun having you here!
I'm glad I'm here too.
I love being on holiday.
Maybe this gives you some time
to step back and really think
about if television is
what you want to be doing.
I need real.
A real Christmas,
with a real friend.
I got you, girlfriend.
Yeah.
Anyway, I should
take my own advice.
Let's say we get this
Christmas party going.
Yeah!
- Wrap Battle?
- Yeah.
It's Christmas
time and the snow is falling
It's Christmas time and
the shops are calling!
No!
Gift wrapping!
Bring it!
Please think seriously
about staying.
Well I'm not going
anywhere soon!
Plus, you haven't told
me what you want Santa
to bring you
for Christmas.
Will Santa convince you to stay?
How about we just go last
minute Christmas shopping?
Yes!
Hello?
Bella! Hey.
Ah, thanks for picking up.
Hi Benjamin.
Benjamin? Wow.
You never call me that.
Aren't you filming promos today?
Yeah, Darla scheduled
some blackout days.
Things are not going
good here, Bella.
It's really not the
same without you.
Yeah. Right.
Right. Okay, um, look.
I'm really sorry about the
way that things happened.
Then with Simon Leman,
you were so nice
to Antonia and I.
You put on a brave face just so
the audience wouldn't hate us.
Yeah, well, it's called
being gracious, Ben.
I just never expected
to be humiliated
in front of so many people.
But, I'm here with Hannah and
I'm actually really happy.
Life is good.
I'm really happy for you, Bella.
But you are coming back
to the show, right?
I don't know, Ben.
I don't know
Look, we need
you here, Bella.
We're having a
meeting tomorrow.
Good! All right.
Now, you're going to turn me.
Good one!
Hey, ah... Are you sure
you locked the door?
I don't want anybody to
see my moves. Please.
Yes. I locked the door.
Hannah has a key.
And she's at the movies.
So don't worry.
Thank you. I trust you.
By the way, I saw you
on "The Simon Leman Show".
I meant to ask you...
Sorry my phone just went off.
- Just give me a second.
- Sure.
I'm so sorry.
Can you give me a minute?
It's the show and I
should really take it.
- Sure.
- All right.
Okay, so how was the meeting?
Ah! Nobody can agree
on what to do.
Please tell me you're
coming back soon.
It's so snowy here.
It's like real Christmas.
You know that people
actually move to LA
so they don't have to
deal with winter, right?
I don't know if that's
right for me anymore.
And actually, I think I
may have met someone here.
I haven't felt this way
in such a long time.
Oh really?
I'm very happy for you.
What's the lucky fellow's name?
Will Jones.
Hey, can I ask you something?
Yeah, sure.
Did I seem happy on the show?
You know, like before
that night, I mean.
Yeah, I think so.
I've always loved being
a part of the show.
But I just, I don't really
know how I feel anymore.
For me, I just know the show
is where I'm meant to be.
Maybe I'm just
fighting for something
that I don't really want.
Remember when I was about ten
years old and I used to watch
all the Fred Astaire
and Gene Kelly movies?
Yes, I remember.
And I'd be there for hours
in front of my bedroom mirror
trying to copy all their moves.
Yeah, I'm sure your mom
still has video of that.
Of course she
still has the videos!
Well, even to this day, every
time I step out onto this set,
I get exactly the same
feeling I did then.
Like everything's just magic.
Wow. That's amazing.
You don't feel
the same way?
Not a lot of us tonight.
Okay, not to panic.
I'm sure it's just
the snowy weather.
Hey, I'm sure they'll
just shoveling out.
I hope so.
Okay, let's get started...
Thanks for the ride.
It was really nice to see a
movie in an actual theater.
Yeah. I may have overheard
you talking to Ben and...
Are you jealous?
No, umm...
I just love spending
time with you.
I love spending
time with you too.
Oh my goodness!
What is this place?
It's huge!
It's like a ballroom.
Wow!
Okay.
It may sound crazy, too soon,
or whatever people think.
But just hear me out.
If I've ever learned
anything in life,
it's to follow my instincts.
And...
Bella...
I'm head over heels for you.
You must know that.
My life makes sense
when I'm around you.
Don't go back to Los Angeles.
Please stay here.
I can buy this. You and Hannah
can expand the studio finally.
More kids can fall in
love with Ballroom.
And those Saturday night dances
that you both two dreamed
about, it's all here.
Will, I...
I don't know what to say.
Say that you'll stay!
I need time to think.
With the show. And Ben.
Ben?
After everything he did to you?
I don't understand.
It's complicated.
We grew up together.
You still have feelings for him.
No. He's like a brother.
And you don't just get rid
of old feelings for new ones.
You make room.
Like this
beautiful room.
Will, all I'm asking
for is some time.
Take all the time in the world.
I'm here.
What is going on?
Darla, why is Pierre B the
third judge in the new poster?
It's just an experiment.
The network bosses are throwing
spaghetti to the wall down here
and we have to appease them.
Was this Antonia's idea?
No! She tried to
talk them out of it.
They want to capitalize on
Simon Leman's interview.
Well I still have a contract.
Well, they
think you quit.
And you're all the way on the
other side of the country.
And it's actually your job.
You're playing with my life.
Just to increase
audience viewers.
I know, I know.
I don't mean to be insensitive,
it's just Pierre B,
he's way too green to be
siting in your chair.
Looks so young!
We did seven minutes of promo
and they're doing well
with the audience.
You said you'd wait
until after Christmas.
Nobody can replace you.
We're just going along
with the press wave
until the next episode.
Well, give me something.
What's going up there?
You got anything
for me to spin?
I'm spending time
with old friends.
I'm getting back into
competitive dancing...
Oh that's good, Bella.
I'll tell the press
that you're happy.
Am I happy?
Thank you everyone for coming.
I know it's been a crazy week.
Ah, just, everyone
keep warming up.
That's great.
I got to take this.
What?
Oh, okay. Okay.
Yes, thank you.
Ms. Kyle, what's wrong?
Are you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine. It's Andre.
What happened?
He hit some ice and
he's had an accident.
Is he going to be all right?
I don't know any details yet.
But he's in the hospital.
You know what?
Class is canceled.
Let's go see Andre.
I wish...
Bella. We need to talk.
Bad news?
The thing is, the marketing
with Pierre, Ben and Antonia
is hitting its stride.
Their social
numbers are climbing.
Well, that's good news, right?
Yeah, but we still want
you in the third chair.
And the more
Pierre's star rises,
then the more our fickle
fans forget about you.
I get it.
You need me to come back to LA.
Bottom line, it's
been more than a week.
You need to decide if
you want this job or not.
One marshmallow or two?
Not even three would be enough.
What happened?
I have to go back to the show.
Not before Christmas,
though, right?
I have to do the finale.
Darla thought she could
push it to next year
but then the executive producers
wanted to hire another judge.
I get it.
You have to go back
and fight for your job.
I don't like it.
But, I get it.
Well right now, I'm the
one that's not keeping up
the end of the deal.
Especially with the dancers.
But you need space.
A real holiday.
Not that showbiz cares
about any of those things.
But I do.
And I see how much
you need those things.
Will cares, too, you know.
Oh Hannah.
Will showed me the
most amazing space.
You could grow your studio.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Oh, you could be my business
partner like we talked about
all those years ago in
Ms. Bernadette's class.
I need time.
Will doesn't know how long the
studio will be for sale, and
Darla doesn't know how long she
can keep the executives at bay.
All you need for
Christmas is time.
No kidding.
This problem isn't
going to fix itself.
Hey!
I have to tell you something.
Oh, this is where I
hear, it's not you Will.
It's the show.
It's not that.
I can feel myself seriously
falling for you, but...
But, so, there is a but.
A very small word
that warns you
that a big negative
is coming.
But, you don't think I'm
such a great dancer, huh?
Or but, you're
breaking up with me?
I have to go home.
I have to salvage what's
left of my career.
Oh well, it's only on the
other side of the country.
I've worked so
hard for my career.
I just can't let it go.
But, you can let me go?
Hannah.
She's really gone, huh?
Yeah, she is.
She's not coming back?
Not for a long time.
Especially after what I said.
I just walked out.
What an idiot.
Oh great.
What's up?
Maureen is 75 percent
sure she has to work now
and Marcus is 50/50.
Andre is out.
Which means I don't have
enough strong dancers
for the big three events.
But you can still win in
two of the events, right?
Sure, but bragging
rights for the Snowball
is all about the big three.
Just fill in for Maureen.
I can't.
I'm not allowed to compete
because I'm the studio owner.
Too bad you hate
dancing so much.
Also, you're not a girl.
No worry. I'm sure
you'll find a way
to up the reputation
of your school.
Thanks. Plus we can still
go have fun, right.
All right.
Let's go see Andre.
Everyone needs some company
when they're in the hospital.
Yeah. I will go
and meet you there.
I got a very expensive
date with an electrician.
Another one?
Third date and counting.
He really likes you.
He adores me.
Live from Studio 5.
It's the "Dance Steps Showdown"!
Here to get us in the holiday
spirit is our own Bella Fox
and Ben Sparks.
Thank you.
Thank you all so much.
I'm so grateful for
your love and support.
It really means a lot.
I'm not going to lie, it
was a very difficult time.
I mean, you don't grow
up dreaming about
being humiliated on live TV!
I've realized in life
the most important thing
is to be honest with
yourself and others.
I'm so happy to be back
here at the finale
with all the performers, Ben,
and even Antonia.
Well, that was exhausting.
How was the first day back?
A big lovefest
with all the fans.
Congratulations.
I'm glad the show went well.
Do you want to know who won?
I'll just check it out
on the morning show tomorrow.
Listen, I got to run.
I just, I wanted to check in
and make sure you're okay.
Thanks, I'm okay.
Hannah, I'm sorry
I had to leave.
I hope you can still
compete in the Snowball.
Me too. I'm working on it.
I'd better go.
The Snowball waits
for no dancer.
It does not.
I'll talk to you later!
Yeah.
Hi, gorgeous!
Hi.
Hi, Bella!
It's so good to see you.
Well, that TV hug
was not our actual reunion.
Oh no. We need to talk.
Ah, no. We need to celebrate!
Like we used to on the
road during the holidays!
Yes!
Ah, excuse me.
Can we get some Champagne
over here please.
Just two glasses. Thanks.
It's so good to have
you back, Bella.
It's great to see you two.
Really.
It's so great to see you.
Pierre was so extra
with the promos.
I cannot imagine him
doing a full show.
Well if you're
saying he's extra,
then he must have been
really over the top!
What are you saying, Bella?
It's just a joke, sweetie.
Don't worry.
Yes! We're all over the top
when the cameras are rolling.
Let's talk about you then.
I hear you have a new guy.
Hannah showed me
some of the posts.
Who is the new mystery man?
Well, his name is Will.
And he's actually amazing.
He's smart, he's fun.
Here.
Oh, good looking!
Uh huh.
But can he dance?
Well, he's not a dancer.
But he does love to dance.
So when is he moving down?
He's not.
That's fine.
You're going to be way
too busy for any romance.
I don't know if the production
team told you yet but
it looks like the lead judge
position is yours after all.
You fought for me!
You actually had my back?
Ben? What is it?
Ah, Antonia honey.
Maybe, maybe this isn't the
right time to be doing this.
Just tell her.
Remember when Antonia and
I went away to that resort
over Labor Day weekend?
Yeah, you got engaged.
Actually, we eloped.
Okay.
And now, Antonia is expecting.
Oh! Congratulations.
The show only wants you back
because they don't want to
have to find somebody when she
goes away on maternity leave.
So... So it's mine by default?
You're back! That's all
that matters, right?
Look, I'm happy for you but how
am I just hearing about this
consolation prize right now?
Bella, we haven't released
this news to the public yet.
Just stop it, Antonia.
She has a right to vent.
Okay, I'm not going to make
a fool of myself again
over your orchestrated drama.
Okay. Congratulations
and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas.
I really am happy for you.
Thanks, Bella.
You know I always
wanted a family.
I know.
We wish the best for you too.
You have a funny
way of showing it.
I've spent the last week with
people who, who really care.
Real people.
What, this Will guy you just
met like a hot minute ago?
Yeah.
And why do you care so much
about her new boyfriend?
Okay, I'm going to leave you
two to play happy family.
I'm going to go and
be the person that I'm
actually meant to be. So...
I'm happy for you.
Merry Christmas. Bye.
All right, the Snowball
is almost here!
Stop! Everybody stop
right where you are!
Bella!
We're all here!
Wow! You all look so great!
I miss you so much.
We miss you too Bella.
Two more days until
the big night.
The Snowball Competition!
You feeling ready?
Ah, as ready
as we'll ever be.
How's Andre?
Much better.
He's out of the hospital.
Well, let's do this for Andre!
I love how you all
support each other
and really work
together as a team.
Ah, thank you Bella.
But for today we are
all here practicing
the rough patches in
each of our dances.
I have blisters.
But I also have bandages.
Thank you, Marcus.
Let's just work until
we get it right.
Yeah. That! Wooo!
Bye Bella.
I'll call you later.
Bye. Good luck.
Thanks for getting lunch, Will.
It smells great.
Better than hospital
food, right?
You're funny.
Sit down, sit down.
You okay? I could have
come to your place.
It's good to get
out of the house.
Seriously. Thanks for
helping me out at home.
That's what neighbors are for.
Hey man, what's wrong?
Nothing.
What happened with Bella?
Oh, she, she left.
She went back to Los Angeles.
I told her that she cared
more about her job than me.
Okay, so you were upset.
Ah, yeah.
What did she say
when you called her?
I, I haven't talked to her.
Let me get this straight.
You like her.
But you told her she had to
choose between her job or you.
And then you didn't
talked with her again?
Yeah. Kind of, yeah.
If you were still racing
and Bella told you to choose
between the track or
her, what would you do?
It's an impossible choice.
Both of them are
important to me.
Right. So...
Yeah, you compromise,
you try to make it work.
Ain't going to be easy,
but, yeah, we can do that.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Don't you think you
should talk with her?
I should.
You know you're a
pretty smart man.
I owe you.
Invite me to the wedding.
And, ah, set me up
with a hot bridesmaid.
I will.
To sum up, the producers and I
are thrilled to announce that
our "Dance Steps" international
formats will be launching in
Germany, Austria, Slovenia and
the U.K., all this coming fall!
It's Dance Steps Everywhere!
Thank you, everybody, for
coming to our launch today.
Please join us now in the
event room to celebrate,
Dance Steps International.
Thank you, everyone!
Antonia, anything to confirm?
I mean the rumor
mill is going crazy.
You are one classy lady.
Well, Ben and Antonia
deserve the spotlight.
They've put their heart
and soul into their career.
Hmmm.
What about your heart?
I'm okay.
Ooh, do you want me to read you
the latest list of bachelors
for 'Dance Steps', Bella?
Please do not.
All right. Well, where's
your east coast guy?
I haven't heard from him.
Really? I mean, can't
he just move here?
No, he's got a lot
of commitments and
he's got a great life there.
Oh booo. A man
with a great life.
We all hate that!
Well, you're going
to the party, right?
Absolutely!
I wouldn't want to
miss celebrating
my ex-dance partner
and his new fiance.
Okay. That is the
Christmas spirit!
Merry Christmas to me!
There she is.
Hi.
Can I get a word?
Sure.
We want to change up
the dance off scene
in promo three.
Okay, that's great.
But please don't make me ad lib.
No, no! Definitely not.
Ummm. We want you to dance.
On your own.
No, Darla, no. I'm not...
I know, I know. You always
dance with a partner.
But think about the
attention we'll get, Bella!
People want to see more of you.
That's the thing.
This show just keeps taking
more and more and more!
Okay.
Dancing for your supper?
Better ring to it?
No.
Just don't forget.
Your holiday sit down
with Simon. 9:45 sharp.
Well Merry Christmas
Eve everybody!
Boy, do I have a special
guest for you today.
She's become part of our
"Simon Leman Show" family,
a professional dancer sharing
her innermost feelings about
her personal relationships with
Ben Sparks and Antonia Baker.
At the "Dance Steps
Showdown" finale,
she was back in the
lead judge's chair.
Please welcome, Bella Fox!
Oh, you look gorgeous.
Oh, give us a twirl, yes!
Mwah, mwah.
Please have a seat.
Welcome, welcome.
Thank you.
Bella, Bella, Bella.
My goodness.
Now you were pushed into a very
small role on the show, right,
even though you've been
there from the very start.
Ten years, I think.
But, um, Antonia
stepped right over you
into a very nice promotion,
I might add.
And Ben Sparks did
not take you along
on his international
successes.
But, here's what I think.
If these baby
rumors are true,
you're going to win
the consolation prize
and be right back in that
lead judge's chair in no time.
Well, I can't really
comment on that.
But if Ben and Antonia
are expecting,
I'd be truly happy for them.
Hmmm.
Everyone deserves to be happy.
Well, that's true.
I think sometimes in
our line of work,
we put so much energy out
there into our public persona,
we forget to take care of our
inner selves, right here.
So I want you to remember,
this is a safe space, okay,
where you can really open up
and talk about how it felt
when Ben and Antonia
didn't have your back.
And now that they're expecting,
can you talk about that?
I'm not meant to
talk about that.
Oh, that's good, thank you.
There you have it!
Ben Sparks and Antonia
Baker are expecting.
Wow! That is fantastic!
All I can really say is that
Ben and Antonia are exactly
where they're supposed to be.
With each other.
Wait, what are you doing?
Los Angeles, you've
been so great to me.
But I've got a
Snowball Trophy to win!
Ah, thank you?
Ah, we're going to go to
commercial. We'll be right back.
What the...
What about
the new season?
I'm taking back my life.
I'm going home to Grand Bend!
Wait! Just give me a
minute to talk about this,
to talk you out of it.
There's nothing to talk about.
I'm celebrating Christmas
upstate New York
with people that I love!
If I make the twelve o'clock
flight I'll be there on time.
Bella! I know how to spin this!
We say you,
you snapped because of all
the emotions swirling around.
I'll get the crew working
on that promo now.
Did you hear what I said?
What do you think?
Fifteen second bits.
Twenty maybe?
Do you have a better spin?
I need a headline!
Bella Fox leaves "Dance Steps"
to pursue her true passion,
her true friends,
and her true love!
That is a terrible pitch!
We don't have it in the budget
to follow you to New York!
Darla...
We had a great run.
Bella!
Marcus, you made it!
Take
some deep breaths.
I've never seen you
this nervous before.
Have you seen Andre and Maureen?
They promised they'd be here.
Maybe the car broke down.
I'm sure they're fine.
It's Christmas Eve.
There's a ton of traffic.
I'm sure you're right.
It's just, I really want
them to see me dance.
To show them my hard work.
- Marcus, you got this.
- You got this, man.
Snow-ball!
Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Hannah? Are you still here?
Bella!
You came back!
Didn't you see me
on the morning show?
No. I was a little
bit in the dark.
Literally.
Did you miss me?
Of course I missed you!
Now what are you doing
here in the studio?
I came back to see if
Hannah was still here.
No, she went to the Snowball!
Oh! What are we
still doing here?
Come on! Let's go!
Let's go baby.
Just smile and have fun! Okay?
Just don't tell the judges
we don't have
enough participants.
Joy to the world
The Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing
And Heaven and Heaven
and nature sing
Joy to the world
The Savior rings
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding
the sounding joy
The wonder of His love
Thank you everybody.
And in first
place for the jive it's
Hannah Kyle School of Dance!
Congratulations.
Yes, well done.
You so deserved to win.
You came!
Oh, I should never have left.
This is home.
I see Will is here.
Uh huh.
Do you have anything
you want to share?
Let's unpack that later.
Wait. Are you going to stay and
be my partner for the studio?
Please say yes!
Oh, Santa, bring me a yes!
Yes!
I'm finally ready to
put down some roots.
Oh, salsa time!
Reba! Can you go
on with Marcus?
Maureen's not here.
You'll be great!
Santa Santa
I already feel so lucky
To be stuck in a
blizzard of snow
My baby and me all alone
It's the holidays
And you're here with me
Dancing circles
in our cozy home
Ugly sweater phase
And matching PJs
Drunk in love and
sleeping in all day
Being in love with you is
like a dream come true
Don't need no
presents to hold
Just you wrapped up in a bow
Santa, Santa
I already feel so lucky
Feeling so magical
Having you is all I want
And thank you dancers!
And the winner
of the Salsa is
Hannah Kyle School of Dance!
We're still kind
of a dancer short.
Kind of?
Fine. I'm two dancers short.
And we need to win the last
dance to win the big three!
Yeah, that would be amazing.
I know.
But I don't have a couple
that can place high enough
to win a trophy
in the waltz.
Well what happened to Andre?
He's recovering
from an accident.
- Oh oh.
- A bike accident.
No, he's fine, he's fine.
It looks like Bella and
I can be of assistance.
Ha ha. Very funny Will.
Hannah, give him a chance.
Do I have a choice?
Okay, Will. Suit up.
We got you!
Thank you, Bella.
Thank you so much.
We made it!
Sorry I'm late! Sorry!
Coming up next,
the Snowball Waltz!
Any last words?
Just, that I love that
we're doing this.
I love you too.
Silent night
Holy night
All is calm
All is bright
Round yon virgin
Mother and child
Holy infant so
tender and mild
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Ladies and gentlemen.
The judges have deliberated.
The results are in.
The winner is...
From Hannah Kyle
School of Dance.
Yes!
We did it!
I've wrapped my presents and
got my letters all sent
I like to think that I am
super damn well prepared
You're right here,
where you belong.
Right here with you.
Merry Christmas, Bella.
Merry Christmas, Will.
We can go to bed
before it snows
So I follow the
brightest star
Except my own two feet
don't walk that far
Right into your heart
I need a Christmas Spark
No I don't bare gifts
I'm not that wise
But I can ask Saint Nick
if he don't mind
Giving me your heart
Cos I need a Christmas Spark
So I follow the
brightest star
Except my own two feet
don't walk that far
Right into your heart
I need a Christmas Spark
No I don't bare gifts
I'm not that wise
But I can ask Saint
Nick if he don't mind
Giving me your heart
Cos I need a
Christmas Spark tonight
Live from Los Angeles,
it's Dance Steps' judges
Bella Fox and Ben Sparks,
bringing you some vintage
Christmas cheer!
Hannah!
Nice lipstick shade!
Your glam is perfect.
Thanks, but I can't wait for
this Christmas show to be done.
Sounds like you need
a break from the spotlight.
Oh, I can't wait for you
to come home for Christmas
and we can hang out
like old times.
I forgot to tell you.
Ben can't come out
with me this year.
He's heading out early to
go skiing with Antonia
in Jackson Hole.
How could he not want to hang
out with not one but two
of his favorite
dance partners?
Honestly, he's been
acting really strange.
I don't know if the fame
has gone to his head,
but something is off.
I'm sure it's just the
pressure from the show.
Just, tell him to bring Antonia
when they're done skiing.
I did. He said maybe they'd
come on Christmas Eve.
Maybe he's buying you
an expensive Christmas gift.
I haven't been his
girlfriend for years.
You know that.
We're more like
brother and sister.
And you also know that he
just proposed to Antonia
over Labor Day weekend.
I do.
I guess they're cute together.
Plus, we're not buying
gifts this year.
We're donating to a good cause.
And if I remember
correctly, it was your idea.
It is a good idea, isn't it?
Oh Will! Come here.
Come say hi to my
best friend, Bella.
She's also the Lead
Judge on "Dance Steps".
Bella, this is Will.
Hi.
Hi Will. Are you one
of Hannah's dancers?
Oh, no not a chance.
Will's my landlord
at the studio.
Best one ever. Mr. Fix It here.
But great idea, Bella, maybe
we can get him to dance.
Oh, no.
I may be handy but I promise
you I have two left feet.
No one has
two left feet.
You just need the
right dance teacher.
You're probably right.
Hey!
Nice to meet you, Bella.
Nice to meet you, Will.
Oh that was my five minute call.
I'm going to have to go.
Oh, wait! I have news!
My studio got into
the National Snowball Dance
Competition this year!
That's amazing!
Congratulations!
Thanks.
Okay, break a leg.
Okay. Mwah! Bye.
All right, folks.
We will be going
live in one minute.
If everyone can remain
in their seats.
Antonia!
I love you, but
what did you do?
Ben, I know this is
going to hurt Bella
but this was supposed to be
announced four weeks ago.
We can't
wait until the finale.
My promotion is going to
take away from the big win.
Fine. Look, I agree.
We don't want to
take the spotlight
off the winning couple.
We've known this is the right
change for a long time now.
Ratings
are going down and
the show needs a refresh.
If we just wait
until the season is over,
then we can do all the talk
shows, release a statement,
talk about all
the changes then.
You promised that you were
going to talk to Bella
when you found
a good time.
But you haven't found one.
You two are always laughing
about some ridiculous
inside joke.
Do you think there's ever a
good time to tell my best friend
that you're taking
her job as Lead Judge.
And announcing it on air
is going to hurt her
more than anything.
And that's the last thing
I want to do to Bella,
especially at Christmas.
Look, let's just not do this
while the cameras are rolling.
Wait until the
season is over, please.
It has to be done, Ben.
The show needs someone
younger in the lead seat.
It's not personal.
Oh, come on.
Of course it's personal.
She has no idea.
Oh, she has an idea all right.
Bella!
I didn't want it
to be this way.
Oh, you didn't
want to be Lead Judge?
Or you didn't want
me to find out
unless the cameras
were rolling?
The drama is at
the judges' table!
This is a Christmas
ratings miracle!
Let's go live! Go live!
Bella look. We've been
friends since we were kids.
I should have told
you about this.
Why didn't you just talk to me?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
You have betrayed me so much.
Please, Bella, don't...
No, just no.
Don't worry.
You can still sit at the
judges' table with me.
Go break a leg. For real!
Bella, come on! Please!
All right, folks,
we're going live in one minute.
If everyone can
remain in their seats.
Hello?
What is the matter
with those two?
They couldn't have talked
with you privately?
I guess being
demoted is great live TV.
At least I wasn't
actually fired.
Well, they should have
at least talked with you.
Obviously, it would
have been awkward but
better than public
embarrassment.
A million times
better than being shocked
on prime time television.
With online replays
around the clock.
I just... Ohhhh!
Thanks, I was trying
not to think about that.
You know what you need?
A white Christmas!
The snow's been
falling for days here!
Special order from Santa.
Change your flight.
Come earlier!
I can't.
The finale is this week.
It would be unprofessional
of me to miss it.
"Dance Steps" just turned
your world upside down.
No one's expecting
you to put on a smile
and pretend you didn't
practically just get fired
in front of the
whole country!
Well, world, actually.
Thanks for the reminder.
You need your real best friend,
not some pretend LA friends.
And you can stay with
me as long as you like.
Well, I can't argue with that.
Okay.
Excellent! Upstate New York
here you come.
You can eat all the
Christmas cookies you want.
Just get on a plane pronto.
Oh, and, you can help get
my students get ready
for the Snowball Competition.
What?
It'll help take your
mind off all the drama.
Have a great flight!
Hi!
- Will?
- Bella. Hi.
Hi. My phone said this
shop was close by,
and I was hoping it was nice.
It's gorgeous in there, yeah.
If you're going for Hannah,
don't forget,
she loves sparkly.
Always sparkly.
Yeah.
I think Hannah
would like that one.
That one is gorgeous, yeah.
I'm going to go get that.
Nice seeing you.
Yeah. Nice to see you too.
Ahhhhhh!
I missed you so much, Bella!
I've missed you so much too!
And all the snow.
Here.
It's beautiful.
And sparkly!
Thank you! Come on in.
They should be ashamed
of themselves,
blindsiding you like that.
Yeah. I never want to go
outside in public ever again.
Don't say that.
Your big, beautiful life
can never be reduced to a
worst day at work ever meme.
You know what you need?
You need to dance!
It's been such a long day.
I really don't
feel like dancing.
Oh, come on.
Our favorite movie!
We can do the sisters scene.
It will cheer you up.
Okay.
Oh, if Miss Bernadette
could see us now.
She'd say fake it
until you make it.
Let your light shine!
True happiness is
not in the spotlight.
It's who you share
your dance with.
Oh! We need wine!
Yes, we do.
Augh!
Morning sleepyhead!
Well, I'm still
on west coast time.
It's still early for me.
String light emergency over.
I got to go back to the office.
Ah, Will, actually, maybe
you should stick around.
Bella's going to help
train the students
and get them ready
for the Snowball.
You might be able to
pick up a thing or two.
Hannah, no. I can't.
I can't do it.
Don't tell me it's too soon.
Oh come on. She's
probably still reeling.
The humiliating
public backstabbing
is all on Antonia
and the producers.
And Ben.
You did nothing wrong.
Well I still feel awful.
I've never lost a job before.
Please Bella.
My students have been working
so hard and the annual Snowball
is my studio's biggest
chance to get noticed.
You might even reconnect with
what you love most about dance.
Your spirit does comes
alive in competition.
Okay. But, it's
against my will.
I am your witness, Bella.
Ah, you're a life saver.
The dancers should be here soon
and the music is all cued up.
I just have to go pick up
some props for the Snowball
and some last minute
Christmas gifts!
Okay... Bye, Hannah!
You're welcome!
Good morning.
Morning.
It's nice of you
subbing in for Hannah.
I'm sure her students
will love having
a famous dancer
teaching them today.
I'm not sure about famous.
I love teaching and
helping people.
That's my favorite
thing to do.
Yeah?
Did you know that
Hannah and I
were going to open
up our own studio?
Oh?
Yeah, we were going to
have this huge space
and have big dance classes
and Saturday night dances.
That sounds like fun.
Yeah, it would have been fun.
Hey, how are you with
really old boom boxes?
Oh, I can give it a try but
I think the 90's called
and they want it back.
Do you know we use
to actually train
to a live piano in the 90's.
Wow. I think the 1890's
are calling now?
No?
Okay, funny guy.
You know what?
I think you should
take my lesson.
I want to see those
two left feet of yours.
Yeah, not a chance. Sorry.
What, you just come
here for the coffee?
Yeah, the coffee and
the Christmas
decoration emergencies.
Just don't tell the head
office that I'm pulling
some superintendent
duties, that's all.
Really? Why?
Oh no, it's a joke.
I'm actually the head
of the management group.
You know, selling
and buying buildings.
Okay, so why does Hannah make
you out to be the handyman?
Just like the same reason you
got roped into helping for
the Snowball Competition.
She is a very persuasive woman.
You know her.
She's your friend.
That's true. One minute
she was cheering me up
and the next minute I'm
stuck teaching her students
for the Snowball competition.
I have to say she's pretty good.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
But now I'm going
to need some coffee.
- Do you want some.
- Please. Thank you.
Thanks.
You know Bella, I wanted
to tell you something.
I'm very sorry, very sorry
about what happened
on your show.
And on top of everything during
the Christmas finals too.
This Antonia is something.
She stole your job.
She's... terrible.
Well, she didn't
exactly steal it.
Wait. You watch the show?
Yeah, every week.
With my grandma.
You're her favorite.
That is so sweet.
Ah, they really made a
huge mistake replacing you.
Well, that was
nice of you to say.
I'm not trying to
say that to be nice.
Your career...
Is full of
accomplishments.
See you in a bit.
Hey. Wait.
Do you think you
could stick around?
I might need some help with
this impossibly outdated tech.
Wow! How could I say no to that?
I'll be in my office
if you need me.
Okay. Bye.
Hi, everyone!
Hi, um, I'm Bella Fox.
And Hannah has
asked me to fill in for her
and get you ready for the
Snowball Competition.
Okay, everyone,
so let's warm up.
Bella!
Adam! You have made my day.
Are you okay?
I'm so sorry for what
they did to you on TV.
Yeah, I'm okay.
I'm much better now
I'm with my friends.
So Hannah talked
you into teaching?
Yeah. I didn't
feel like I was ready,
but with you as the assistant
teacher, I think I am.
I know you're ready. Shall we?
Okay. All right.
So let's get started
with the salsa.
I'll put some music on, if I
can get this thing to work.
There we go.
So we're going to come
forward with the left foot.
Six, seven and...
One, two, three.
And one, two three.
Very good.
We're looking great, guys.
Let's take it to the side.
To the side.
Excellent.
Looking good.
I know Reba and Alfredo
never have the rhythm
but they do have a spark.
I'm sure there was some
stepping on toes, though.
Literally.
There was but you've
taught them well.
Thanks.
I'm super stressing
about the competition.
I feel like they are ready but
some of them are really
lacking in confidence.
And I think we're
running out of time.
They been learning from the
one and only Hannah Kyle.
So, they can do it.
Yeah. You're right.
And with your help
and my persistence,
we'll be spectacular.
It'll be fun!
Except I can't stop
thinking about the show.
I know. You love that show.
Yeah...
Let me guess. Your producer.
Yeah.
Stick to your guns, Bella.
I'm sorry about all this, Bella.
We were going to talk
to you next week
about your position
at the judges' table.
Announce it on the finale.
Hook the audience
in for next season.
Some hook.
You practically fired me.
Listen, Bella.
You are a great judge.
And the love you have for dance
really shines through when
you talk to contestants.
Thank you. But?
But...
The people upstairs think
it's time for a rebrand.
Ah, you know, a refresh.
Someone younger, a pop
star who can barely dance?
That was made very
clear to me on live TV.
I'm a meme, Darla!
This is not how we wanted
to launch the news,
so here's the spin...
It's a new chapter in "Dance
Steps'" family scrapbook.
It's good you got away!
You've been working
too hard for too long.
You need time
out of the spotlight.
Your family here misses you!
Well, maybe the
ratings are missing me?
Okay, you're right.
The audience isn't
loving Antonia right now.
But we can capitalize on this.
Oh, God, that sounded
awful out loud.
Look, I've been trying
to talk to the network
to delay the finale
until after Christmas.
No guarantees.
But, the
show must go on,
and you know we still
have you under contract.
I'm sorry, but this is all
sounding so ridiculous.
Okay. It's the holidays.
Let me work this out.
You go enjoy yourself,
don't worry about this.
And have fun with
your friends!
Sorry. Insensitive.
Your friends stabbed you
in the back.
But okay, hey, have fun
with different friends.
Come back in the new year.
Sit at the table with us.
Hannah...
Let's crush this
Snowball Competition.
I'm in. I'm so in!
Yesssss!
Toe, heel, step...
Let's speed it up a little.
Toe, heel, step. Toe, heel,
step. Toe, heel, step...
All right, everyone.
Great work today.
The Snowball Dance
Competition is a week away.
So make sure you have your
costumes in sparkling shape.
That means you, Marcus!
Oh, and if anyone
wants private lessons,
talk to Bella.
She doesn't seem to have any
pressing work engagements.
Very funny.
All right.
We'll see you at next class.
Make sure you all come because
we have a lot of work to do.
Okay? Bye.
Okay, do we have any actually
trained dancers here?
I don't know yet.
Will swears his neighbor
Andre can dance,
so he's going
to talk to him.
Hey I'm Andre. Will sent me.
I know who you are, so
you must be Hannah Kyle.
I'm Hannah. Welcome!
I've never done the
Snowball Competition before,
but Will said I might be
able to go with your school
if I'm good enough.
Yeah, well, show
us what you've got.
Bella Fox just spoke to me!
I'll get right on it.
He might be our ringer.
He might be a Christmas miracle.
We might actually
win this thing.
That's great, Andre!
Keep it going.
First things first.
Who are you going
to dance with?
You want me to dance
at the Snowball?
Of course!
I can't dance.
I'm the studio owner.
Well, you and I both know I
might have to leave soon.
Let me talk to your agent.
Those people did you wrong.
You're all doing great.
And Andre,
welcome to the Snowball team.
Great work, everybody!
The Snowball Trophy is ours!
Oh! Great, you're here.
I need a new step
for the Snowball.
Can you help me out?
I just need a body
to figure it out on.
- Hold me.
- Holding.
Okay.
You're going to take a
step forward on this foot.
Forward... Good!
Back...
Now, let's grab my shoulder...
Come forward... Good!
Now you're going
to dip me, so...
Dip... Good!
And then spin around.
And then over...
And voila!
Well...
Maybe now you can
do something for me.
Will you come with me
to my office Christmas
party tomorrow?
It's a little last minute.
And, um, I don't have
anything to wear.
What? Hannah can lend
you something sparkly.
Yeah, she does love sparkly
and she loves to shop, so...
So it's a yes?
Yeah. So now do me a favor?
I was terrible at this.
Can you please show
me one more time.
Okay.
I'm still holding.
Will's a great guy.
You approve?
Pftt!
Okay, so I didn't approve of
Ben when you were dating him
but maybe I was a bit jealous
that you were in a relationship
and I wasn't.
Nice self awareness.
Will is everything you
want and you know it.
So just embrace the flirting
and forget about the public
humiliation double whammy!
Well, the internet
exists, Hannah.
You know what I mean.
Getting fired from a job is a
huge hit to the self esteem.
But you are a vibrant,
beautiful, graceful,
intelligent...
Okay, thanks for the pep talk
but Will's waiting
and I have to go.
Ahh...
What?
Just, ah...
Try this on.
Yeah.
Hi!
Wow.
You look amazing.
Thank you. You look great too.
Let's go.
I... I have to
tell you something.
Uh huh?
I loved dancing with you.
You're an incredible teacher.
You deserve to be the number
one judge on that show.
The expert voice.
Yeah, well I'm afraid
the online clips
would say a
different story.
Listen, I'm serious.
What they did to
you was horrible.
But all the way to the end,
you kept your grace
under the pressure.
You really think so?
Yeah!
I mean, as professional
as anyone can be
under the
circumstances, yeah.
Bella, you are all class.
Thank you.
That really means a lot.
Whoop!
Are they your colleagues?
Ah, yeah yeah.
It's always the one
you least expect that
let loose at a
Christmas party.
That is true.
So tell me something I would
least expect about you?
- Me?
- Yeah.
Oh wow...
Least expected...
I have one.
I sponsor a chimpanzee
named Isabel
at a refuge down
in Florida.
I have a picture of
her on the fridge.
I will bring it tomorrow.
Yeah, it's pretty
interesting.
I get a postcard
from time to time.
You know, it's a pretty low
maintenance relationship.
My high maintenance
relationship was racing.
Ah.
You know, Indy cars.
Do you still race?
Actually, no, I
stopped last year.
Were you good?
Kind of.
Okay, I bet you
were really good.
But why did you stop?
Well, some of the other drivers
got into very bad accidents, so
I stopped before it was me.
I saved some of my
winnings and, you know,
started to buy properties.
Well, I'm sure
your Grandma Grace
is really happy
about that.
Grace was thrilled, for sure.
Listen, now tell me
something random about you.
Once I was on a beach, I was
swimming in the ocean
and over a hundred
jelly fish stung me.
It made the news
and everything.
What! Where?
On my bum.
Where?
Oh. In Australia.
Where everything can kill you.
Right, in France, we only
have snails, so we good.
But here, only fresh lakes
so no jelly fish in sight.
Another reason I
love it here so much.
Hey, I saw an article today.
Well, you're not
going to be thrilled.
"The Ten Men Bella
Fox Should Date."
Oh my goodness.
Guess what? I never
made the cut!
Pretty disappointed,
but, hey, anyway...
Well I'd say that's just
really poor journalism!
Uh huh. I agree.
Who's ready for karaoke?
So you say
you don't dance.
But do you karaoke?
- Are you going to sing?
- Yes!
Deck the halls with
boughs of holly
La la la la la la la la la
Tis the season to be jolly
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la
la la la la!!!
I can't believe you didn't know
the words to "Deck the Halls".
I'm sorry, I'm French.
But by the way you were great.
You were following that
bouncing ball like a champ.
I tried.
I meant to ask you.
Are the dancers for the
Snowball Competition
working out?
They're working so hard.
They're so dedicated.
It's amazing.
Okay. But what I meant to ask
is do they have the moves?
Can they win?
You seem awfully invested
in this competition
for someone who
doesn't dance.
I'm an athlete. I
love to compete.
You know, athletes
make great dancers.
Thank you.
Well, I did dance once.
But at my own high school prom.
But that was it.
What about you?
Ah, my mom put me into
dance when I was four.
And I loved it.
And then Ben and I
got partnered up
when we were teenagers.
Ben. You used to date?
Well, we dated a long time ago.
We were just kids and
we moved to America
and got onto "Dance
Steps" and then Antonia,
she joined the show
about a year ago.
And, you know what?
I hate to admit it but they're
actually perfect together.
So hold on.
You were all friends until...
Until they stabbed
me in the back.
But, that's all behind me now.
And I just want
to say thank you
for bringing me here tonight.
Because I've actually
had a really good time.
I'm very happy that you came.
Do you want to raid
the dessert buffet?
Yes!
Let's go!
I hope we can do this again.
Bella, look, I know you're
going through a lot lately.
You don't have to...
What I mean is if you
need to talk, I'm here.
I really appreciate that.
- Au revoir.
- Au revoir.
Coming up, the
career triangle
that rocked the
"Dance Steps" world!
Ben Sparks and Antonia Baker
sit down here with me,
the one and only Simon Leman.
We'll be
back in a minute.
And I know you can't wait!
It is so inappropriate
to do this on television!
Like, how can you bare
your feelings to a camera!
Yeah, I thought they
were my friends.
Yeah, before the whole
"et tu Brute" betrayal.
Are you sure you want to go
back into that fishbowl?
Let me guess, your producer?
You have some weird sixth
sense, you know that, right?
But, yes.
It's Darla pretending to care.
For what it's worth,
I'm not pretending.
I really want you to be happy.
Audience, please welcome,
Ben Sparks and Antonia Baker.
Ben, we know these are
difficult times for you.
Do you still actually have
a friendship with Bella Fox?
Yes, Simon, thankfully,
I think I do.
Okay, because
you actually stabbed her
in the back professionally.
I truly am grateful to
have Bella as a friend.
We've been friends for
over thirty years.
We competed in
Ballroom together,
we were kids in the
same ballet class.
But, yes, I should have
communicated better,
and I'm doing my
best to fix that.
But Bella and I, we're really
important to each other.
Okay, because actually
my sources say
you're no longer
on speaking terms.
Is that correct?
No, no it's not.
Look, if you ask me, I think
the pressures of the show,
they started to take
a toll on Bella.
And I'd notice how her
inner spirit had changed.
And you're sure it wasn't you?
Again, I should have
communicated better,
but Bella and I, we'll
always be friends.
Our parents are friends.
Her aunt was our coach.
She really is like
a sister I never had.
Does this seem cold to you?
This seems cold.
Antonia, now
that you're the lead judge
on "Dance Steps",
tell us how does that feel?
Oh, I love the show.
Everyone is so wonderful.
The crew, the couples,
just everyone.
And I'm determined to be
the best lead judge
this show has ever had.
Even if that means your...
Friend Bella Fox is out?
I didn't want to hurt Bella.
It's just business.
I do miss her.
Well,
what would you say to Bella
if she were here today?
Look right in that camera.
I'd say come back to your
"Dance Steps" family, Bella.
I miss you at the table!
And what would
you say to her, Ben?
Bella, take the break you need.
Dance every day.
Find what it is that
truly makes you happy.
Then when you do,
come back to us.
We really care
about you, Bella.
And that's our
show today everybody.
Give it up for Ben and Antonia.
We will see you on Friday.
All right everyone,
you're doing great.
I'm so happy with
all your hard work.
Sorry. Sorry.
Work! Sorry.
Bella and I
have made our decisions
about the competition.
George and Liz,
you have the most beautiful
waltz I've seen this year.
Share that
with the world.
Marcus and Maureen,
you're a pair.
Hannah, I just found out
I might have to work the
day of the competition.
I'm going to try not to
but you know how it is.
I can't lose this job.
Yeah, me too.
I'm so busy at the
post office right now.
They might have me
work the night shift.
Okay, well, Bella might be
able to fill in for Maureen.
Andre, can you practice
with Maureen, as well,
just in case Marcus
can't make it.
Of course! I'll make
you proud Ms. Kyle.
You already do.
Everyone else, you can find
your names outside on the list.
You all have a place to
have fun at the Snowball.
Congratulations!
We're still covered.
We have strong dancers in
all the big three events.
A win would really help with
enrollment so we just need
to drill down on all
of those dances.
I've got you covered.
Thank you.
We'll be good.
Ready to decorate?
Definitely. But Hannah owes
us big time for this one.
Might get us on the nice list.
I like the way you're thinking.
Oh, I didn't know what
I was getting into.
No you didn't!
Christmas
It's Christmas
Christmas
It's Christmas
The world is
tired of waiting
It's time for celebrating
With all the people we love
All our friends
and all our family
Gathered round the tree
And feel the spirits above
Christmas [Christmas]
It's Christmas [Christmas]
It's Christmas
Dance baby
Ugh. This picture is more
annoying every time I see it.
Can I be corny for a
second and just say
how wonderful it is to have
you here for Christmas.
Bella?
It's really nice having
you here for Christmas.
Bella! Where'd you go?
Sorry! I love being here, too.
Saved by the bell!
Thanks for these.
Will brought us fancy coffees!
I came here to let her know
about all this decorating
she got us to do at the studio.
You're part of the
dance community, Will.
Community helps community.
Now sit
I will pay you in cookies.
I'm taking mine to go.
Here you go. Have a cookie.
Thank you.
This is so good.
C'est superbe!
Ah, oui!
I'm sorry. I hope
I'm not interrupting?
No. We're just relaxing.
I was trying to find something
to watch on TV, but...
Here. Find us something.
Okay.
There's racing
this late in the day?
It's an old replay.
A great race.
I love watching
my friends drive.
We text between
races, talk sometimes.
I'm not on the team anymore
but they're still my team,
you know?
Yeah, it's kind of like
that in dancing too.
- Yeah?
- Uh huh.
I can't believe how much fun
that was watching racing.
And, um, team captain here.
You must miss it.
Yeah.
These are dedicated
people, you know.
You don't go far in the field
if you're not passionate.
Driven, you mean?
Touche.
What about you?
Why did you stop competing?
You don't have to tell me.
It's just that you danced
all over the world.
It's must have been a lot fun.
It was so much fun.
Well, we got a
call from a lady,
kind of like a TV legend.
And to be honest, Ben and I
were just sick of traveling.
Makes sense. Why not TV.
I bet the camera loved you
right from your first audition.
No. I was so nervous.
Of course.
You were out of
your comfort zone.
You're not on the
dancing floor anymore.
I hope you never look back.
You're really good
at what you do.
Let's watch another race.
Okay.
You're up early!
I'm still half asleep.
Are you too excited
for Christmas to sleep?
Very funny.
I'm off to the studio
to do new choreography
for your Snowball Competition.
Oh yeah. Cheers to that!
Right behind you.
Just finishing my coffee.
Oh yeah, Hannah! I'll see
you at the 10 o'clock class!
Okay bye.
Oh Will! I didn't expect to
see you here so early.
Ah, my
breakfast meeting got canceled
so I thought I'd drop by.
I hope it's okay?
Yeah, of course it's okay.
We love having you here.
Yeah, I love to come here
and relax, decompress.
Oh. De - com - press.
Okay. Got it.
You saw me.
Saw you what?
I normally like it
when people cannot lie.
But today, I would not
mind if you didn't see
that humiliating display of,
I don't know what it was!
Humiliating?
More like pure joy.
I've seen a lot of dancing
and you are amazing.
- Really?
- Uh huh.
Okay. Question.
Answer honestly.
Sure.
Do you enjoy dancing?
I... guess so.
I saw you.
I know you love it.
Yes I do love dancing.
When I was twelve years old,
I gathered all the courage
in the world to ask a girl
to dance with me at school.
All the other boys were
shuffling their feet
from one to the other.
I couldn't help
but bust a move.
Even my best friend
made fun of me.
So for me, that was it.
Oh, well kids can be so mean.
Especially when my braces
were showing so much.
Do you know how
wonderful it was
to see you dancing without
a care in the world?
- All right, dancer boy.
- Whoa!
Dance with me.
I'll lead. Don't worry.
Thank you. I'm ready.
So we're going to go forward.
One, two, three...
Look at this. We're dancing!
Just that.
Yeah, just that.
One, two, three...
One, two, three...
Wow, look at you go.
You're a natural.
I have the best teacher.
You're looking so good.
Everyone's doing
such a great job.
Fantastic!
All right, that's it for today.
And remember to hydrate!
- So.
- So?
How's the search
for a partner going?
What?
You need a dance partner
for the Snowball.
Well, I may have found
myself a ringer.
Hmmm. You don't say?
Well, it's early days but
we seem to be in step.
Well, that's how all
the best dances start.
One foot in front of the other.
Your secret admirer?
No. Darla. My old life calling.
Simon Leman
wants your side of the story.
You know what?
I need to face this.
Right now.
Okay. All right.
Well that's almost it
for our show today.
But before we go, I have
a last minute surprise,
a surprise you've been
waiting for, Dance Watchers.
Just like I have.
Right now, Bella Fox is
joining us from the east coast.
And we'll see where she is
on the forgiveness spectrum.
Hello Bella!
Hi Simon.
I can hear from your
voice that you're in pain
from this career sabotage.
Well, I'm not going to lie.
It was a difficult night.
And you had no idea the
show wanted to make changes?
I had no idea.
And it hurt more than it needed
to because it was so public.
And I was embarrassed.
Well, with friends
like Antonia and Ben,
who needs enemies, right?
What would you like
to say to your
former friends and
current judges?
I'd have to say...
Thank you!
Excuse me?
I really mean it.
A sincere thank you.
I am in a good place.
I'm exploring connections
with people outside
of the spotlight.
And I'm happy.
Oh, any connections
in particular?
Well, it's too soon.
But if you love dance,
make sure you check out
this year's Snowball.
And keep on dancing! Bye.
Bye-ee!
Yes! You're amazing Bella.
You caught them all by surprise.
Me too.
It's so fun having you here!
I'm glad I'm here too.
I love being on holiday.
Maybe this gives you some time
to step back and really think
about if television is
what you want to be doing.
I need real.
A real Christmas,
with a real friend.
I got you, girlfriend.
Yeah.
Anyway, I should
take my own advice.
Let's say we get this
Christmas party going.
Yeah!
- Wrap Battle?
- Yeah.
It's Christmas
time and the snow is falling
It's Christmas time and
the shops are calling!
No!
Gift wrapping!
Bring it!
Please think seriously
about staying.
Well I'm not going
anywhere soon!
Plus, you haven't told
me what you want Santa
to bring you
for Christmas.
Will Santa convince you to stay?
How about we just go last
minute Christmas shopping?
Yes!
Hello?
Bella! Hey.
Ah, thanks for picking up.
Hi Benjamin.
Benjamin? Wow.
You never call me that.
Aren't you filming promos today?
Yeah, Darla scheduled
some blackout days.
Things are not going
good here, Bella.
It's really not the
same without you.
Yeah. Right.
Right. Okay, um, look.
I'm really sorry about the
way that things happened.
Then with Simon Leman,
you were so nice
to Antonia and I.
You put on a brave face just so
the audience wouldn't hate us.
Yeah, well, it's called
being gracious, Ben.
I just never expected
to be humiliated
in front of so many people.
But, I'm here with Hannah and
I'm actually really happy.
Life is good.
I'm really happy for you, Bella.
But you are coming back
to the show, right?
I don't know, Ben.
I don't know
Look, we need
you here, Bella.
We're having a
meeting tomorrow.
Good! All right.
Now, you're going to turn me.
Good one!
Hey, ah... Are you sure
you locked the door?
I don't want anybody to
see my moves. Please.
Yes. I locked the door.
Hannah has a key.
And she's at the movies.
So don't worry.
Thank you. I trust you.
By the way, I saw you
on "The Simon Leman Show".
I meant to ask you...
Sorry my phone just went off.
- Just give me a second.
- Sure.
I'm so sorry.
Can you give me a minute?
It's the show and I
should really take it.
- Sure.
- All right.
Okay, so how was the meeting?
Ah! Nobody can agree
on what to do.
Please tell me you're
coming back soon.
It's so snowy here.
It's like real Christmas.
You know that people
actually move to LA
so they don't have to
deal with winter, right?
I don't know if that's
right for me anymore.
And actually, I think I
may have met someone here.
I haven't felt this way
in such a long time.
Oh really?
I'm very happy for you.
What's the lucky fellow's name?
Will Jones.
Hey, can I ask you something?
Yeah, sure.
Did I seem happy on the show?
You know, like before
that night, I mean.
Yeah, I think so.
I've always loved being
a part of the show.
But I just, I don't really
know how I feel anymore.
For me, I just know the show
is where I'm meant to be.
Maybe I'm just
fighting for something
that I don't really want.
Remember when I was about ten
years old and I used to watch
all the Fred Astaire
and Gene Kelly movies?
Yes, I remember.
And I'd be there for hours
in front of my bedroom mirror
trying to copy all their moves.
Yeah, I'm sure your mom
still has video of that.
Of course she
still has the videos!
Well, even to this day, every
time I step out onto this set,
I get exactly the same
feeling I did then.
Like everything's just magic.
Wow. That's amazing.
You don't feel
the same way?
Not a lot of us tonight.
Okay, not to panic.
I'm sure it's just
the snowy weather.
Hey, I'm sure they'll
just shoveling out.
I hope so.
Okay, let's get started...
Thanks for the ride.
It was really nice to see a
movie in an actual theater.
Yeah. I may have overheard
you talking to Ben and...
Are you jealous?
No, umm...
I just love spending
time with you.
I love spending
time with you too.
Oh my goodness!
What is this place?
It's huge!
It's like a ballroom.
Wow!
Okay.
It may sound crazy, too soon,
or whatever people think.
But just hear me out.
If I've ever learned
anything in life,
it's to follow my instincts.
And...
Bella...
I'm head over heels for you.
You must know that.
My life makes sense
when I'm around you.
Don't go back to Los Angeles.
Please stay here.
I can buy this. You and Hannah
can expand the studio finally.
More kids can fall in
love with Ballroom.
And those Saturday night dances
that you both two dreamed
about, it's all here.
Will, I...
I don't know what to say.
Say that you'll stay!
I need time to think.
With the show. And Ben.
Ben?
After everything he did to you?
I don't understand.
It's complicated.
We grew up together.
You still have feelings for him.
No. He's like a brother.
And you don't just get rid
of old feelings for new ones.
You make room.
Like this
beautiful room.
Will, all I'm asking
for is some time.
Take all the time in the world.
I'm here.
What is going on?
Darla, why is Pierre B the
third judge in the new poster?
It's just an experiment.
The network bosses are throwing
spaghetti to the wall down here
and we have to appease them.
Was this Antonia's idea?
No! She tried to
talk them out of it.
They want to capitalize on
Simon Leman's interview.
Well I still have a contract.
Well, they
think you quit.
And you're all the way on the
other side of the country.
And it's actually your job.
You're playing with my life.
Just to increase
audience viewers.
I know, I know.
I don't mean to be insensitive,
it's just Pierre B,
he's way too green to be
siting in your chair.
Looks so young!
We did seven minutes of promo
and they're doing well
with the audience.
You said you'd wait
until after Christmas.
Nobody can replace you.
We're just going along
with the press wave
until the next episode.
Well, give me something.
What's going up there?
You got anything
for me to spin?
I'm spending time
with old friends.
I'm getting back into
competitive dancing...
Oh that's good, Bella.
I'll tell the press
that you're happy.
Am I happy?
Thank you everyone for coming.
I know it's been a crazy week.
Ah, just, everyone
keep warming up.
That's great.
I got to take this.
What?
Oh, okay. Okay.
Yes, thank you.
Ms. Kyle, what's wrong?
Are you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine. It's Andre.
What happened?
He hit some ice and
he's had an accident.
Is he going to be all right?
I don't know any details yet.
But he's in the hospital.
You know what?
Class is canceled.
Let's go see Andre.
I wish...
Bella. We need to talk.
Bad news?
The thing is, the marketing
with Pierre, Ben and Antonia
is hitting its stride.
Their social
numbers are climbing.
Well, that's good news, right?
Yeah, but we still want
you in the third chair.
And the more
Pierre's star rises,
then the more our fickle
fans forget about you.
I get it.
You need me to come back to LA.
Bottom line, it's
been more than a week.
You need to decide if
you want this job or not.
One marshmallow or two?
Not even three would be enough.
What happened?
I have to go back to the show.
Not before Christmas,
though, right?
I have to do the finale.
Darla thought she could
push it to next year
but then the executive producers
wanted to hire another judge.
I get it.
You have to go back
and fight for your job.
I don't like it.
But, I get it.
Well right now, I'm the
one that's not keeping up
the end of the deal.
Especially with the dancers.
But you need space.
A real holiday.
Not that showbiz cares
about any of those things.
But I do.
And I see how much
you need those things.
Will cares, too, you know.
Oh Hannah.
Will showed me the
most amazing space.
You could grow your studio.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Oh, you could be my business
partner like we talked about
all those years ago in
Ms. Bernadette's class.
I need time.
Will doesn't know how long the
studio will be for sale, and
Darla doesn't know how long she
can keep the executives at bay.
All you need for
Christmas is time.
No kidding.
This problem isn't
going to fix itself.
Hey!
I have to tell you something.
Oh, this is where I
hear, it's not you Will.
It's the show.
It's not that.
I can feel myself seriously
falling for you, but...
But, so, there is a but.
A very small word
that warns you
that a big negative
is coming.
But, you don't think I'm
such a great dancer, huh?
Or but, you're
breaking up with me?
I have to go home.
I have to salvage what's
left of my career.
Oh well, it's only on the
other side of the country.
I've worked so
hard for my career.
I just can't let it go.
But, you can let me go?
Hannah.
She's really gone, huh?
Yeah, she is.
She's not coming back?
Not for a long time.
Especially after what I said.
I just walked out.
What an idiot.
Oh great.
What's up?
Maureen is 75 percent
sure she has to work now
and Marcus is 50/50.
Andre is out.
Which means I don't have
enough strong dancers
for the big three events.
But you can still win in
two of the events, right?
Sure, but bragging
rights for the Snowball
is all about the big three.
Just fill in for Maureen.
I can't.
I'm not allowed to compete
because I'm the studio owner.
Too bad you hate
dancing so much.
Also, you're not a girl.
No worry. I'm sure
you'll find a way
to up the reputation
of your school.
Thanks. Plus we can still
go have fun, right.
All right.
Let's go see Andre.
Everyone needs some company
when they're in the hospital.
Yeah. I will go
and meet you there.
I got a very expensive
date with an electrician.
Another one?
Third date and counting.
He really likes you.
He adores me.
Live from Studio 5.
It's the "Dance Steps Showdown"!
Here to get us in the holiday
spirit is our own Bella Fox
and Ben Sparks.
Thank you.
Thank you all so much.
I'm so grateful for
your love and support.
It really means a lot.
I'm not going to lie, it
was a very difficult time.
I mean, you don't grow
up dreaming about
being humiliated on live TV!
I've realized in life
the most important thing
is to be honest with
yourself and others.
I'm so happy to be back
here at the finale
with all the performers, Ben,
and even Antonia.
Well, that was exhausting.
How was the first day back?
A big lovefest
with all the fans.
Congratulations.
I'm glad the show went well.
Do you want to know who won?
I'll just check it out
on the morning show tomorrow.
Listen, I got to run.
I just, I wanted to check in
and make sure you're okay.
Thanks, I'm okay.
Hannah, I'm sorry
I had to leave.
I hope you can still
compete in the Snowball.
Me too. I'm working on it.
I'd better go.
The Snowball waits
for no dancer.
It does not.
I'll talk to you later!
Yeah.
Hi, gorgeous!
Hi.
Hi, Bella!
It's so good to see you.
Well, that TV hug
was not our actual reunion.
Oh no. We need to talk.
Ah, no. We need to celebrate!
Like we used to on the
road during the holidays!
Yes!
Ah, excuse me.
Can we get some Champagne
over here please.
Just two glasses. Thanks.
It's so good to have
you back, Bella.
It's great to see you two.
Really.
It's so great to see you.
Pierre was so extra
with the promos.
I cannot imagine him
doing a full show.
Well if you're
saying he's extra,
then he must have been
really over the top!
What are you saying, Bella?
It's just a joke, sweetie.
Don't worry.
Yes! We're all over the top
when the cameras are rolling.
Let's talk about you then.
I hear you have a new guy.
Hannah showed me
some of the posts.
Who is the new mystery man?
Well, his name is Will.
And he's actually amazing.
He's smart, he's fun.
Here.
Oh, good looking!
Uh huh.
But can he dance?
Well, he's not a dancer.
But he does love to dance.
So when is he moving down?
He's not.
That's fine.
You're going to be way
too busy for any romance.
I don't know if the production
team told you yet but
it looks like the lead judge
position is yours after all.
You fought for me!
You actually had my back?
Ben? What is it?
Ah, Antonia honey.
Maybe, maybe this isn't the
right time to be doing this.
Just tell her.
Remember when Antonia and
I went away to that resort
over Labor Day weekend?
Yeah, you got engaged.
Actually, we eloped.
Okay.
And now, Antonia is expecting.
Oh! Congratulations.
The show only wants you back
because they don't want to
have to find somebody when she
goes away on maternity leave.
So... So it's mine by default?
You're back! That's all
that matters, right?
Look, I'm happy for you but how
am I just hearing about this
consolation prize right now?
Bella, we haven't released
this news to the public yet.
Just stop it, Antonia.
She has a right to vent.
Okay, I'm not going to make
a fool of myself again
over your orchestrated drama.
Okay. Congratulations
and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas.
I really am happy for you.
Thanks, Bella.
You know I always
wanted a family.
I know.
We wish the best for you too.
You have a funny
way of showing it.
I've spent the last week with
people who, who really care.
Real people.
What, this Will guy you just
met like a hot minute ago?
Yeah.
And why do you care so much
about her new boyfriend?
Okay, I'm going to leave you
two to play happy family.
I'm going to go and
be the person that I'm
actually meant to be. So...
I'm happy for you.
Merry Christmas. Bye.
All right, the Snowball
is almost here!
Stop! Everybody stop
right where you are!
Bella!
We're all here!
Wow! You all look so great!
I miss you so much.
We miss you too Bella.
Two more days until
the big night.
The Snowball Competition!
You feeling ready?
Ah, as ready
as we'll ever be.
How's Andre?
Much better.
He's out of the hospital.
Well, let's do this for Andre!
I love how you all
support each other
and really work
together as a team.
Ah, thank you Bella.
But for today we are
all here practicing
the rough patches in
each of our dances.
I have blisters.
But I also have bandages.
Thank you, Marcus.
Let's just work until
we get it right.
Yeah. That! Wooo!
Bye Bella.
I'll call you later.
Bye. Good luck.
Thanks for getting lunch, Will.
It smells great.
Better than hospital
food, right?
You're funny.
Sit down, sit down.
You okay? I could have
come to your place.
It's good to get
out of the house.
Seriously. Thanks for
helping me out at home.
That's what neighbors are for.
Hey man, what's wrong?
Nothing.
What happened with Bella?
Oh, she, she left.
She went back to Los Angeles.
I told her that she cared
more about her job than me.
Okay, so you were upset.
Ah, yeah.
What did she say
when you called her?
I, I haven't talked to her.
Let me get this straight.
You like her.
But you told her she had to
choose between her job or you.
And then you didn't
talked with her again?
Yeah. Kind of, yeah.
If you were still racing
and Bella told you to choose
between the track or
her, what would you do?
It's an impossible choice.
Both of them are
important to me.
Right. So...
Yeah, you compromise,
you try to make it work.
Ain't going to be easy,
but, yeah, we can do that.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Don't you think you
should talk with her?
I should.
You know you're a
pretty smart man.
I owe you.
Invite me to the wedding.
And, ah, set me up
with a hot bridesmaid.
I will.
To sum up, the producers and I
are thrilled to announce that
our "Dance Steps" international
formats will be launching in
Germany, Austria, Slovenia and
the U.K., all this coming fall!
It's Dance Steps Everywhere!
Thank you, everybody, for
coming to our launch today.
Please join us now in the
event room to celebrate,
Dance Steps International.
Thank you, everyone!
Antonia, anything to confirm?
I mean the rumor
mill is going crazy.
You are one classy lady.
Well, Ben and Antonia
deserve the spotlight.
They've put their heart
and soul into their career.
Hmmm.
What about your heart?
I'm okay.
Ooh, do you want me to read you
the latest list of bachelors
for 'Dance Steps', Bella?
Please do not.
All right. Well, where's
your east coast guy?
I haven't heard from him.
Really? I mean, can't
he just move here?
No, he's got a lot
of commitments and
he's got a great life there.
Oh booo. A man
with a great life.
We all hate that!
Well, you're going
to the party, right?
Absolutely!
I wouldn't want to
miss celebrating
my ex-dance partner
and his new fiance.
Okay. That is the
Christmas spirit!
Merry Christmas to me!
There she is.
Hi.
Can I get a word?
Sure.
We want to change up
the dance off scene
in promo three.
Okay, that's great.
But please don't make me ad lib.
No, no! Definitely not.
Ummm. We want you to dance.
On your own.
No, Darla, no. I'm not...
I know, I know. You always
dance with a partner.
But think about the
attention we'll get, Bella!
People want to see more of you.
That's the thing.
This show just keeps taking
more and more and more!
Okay.
Dancing for your supper?
Better ring to it?
No.
Just don't forget.
Your holiday sit down
with Simon. 9:45 sharp.
Well Merry Christmas
Eve everybody!
Boy, do I have a special
guest for you today.
She's become part of our
"Simon Leman Show" family,
a professional dancer sharing
her innermost feelings about
her personal relationships with
Ben Sparks and Antonia Baker.
At the "Dance Steps
Showdown" finale,
she was back in the
lead judge's chair.
Please welcome, Bella Fox!
Oh, you look gorgeous.
Oh, give us a twirl, yes!
Mwah, mwah.
Please have a seat.
Welcome, welcome.
Thank you.
Bella, Bella, Bella.
My goodness.
Now you were pushed into a very
small role on the show, right,
even though you've been
there from the very start.
Ten years, I think.
But, um, Antonia
stepped right over you
into a very nice promotion,
I might add.
And Ben Sparks did
not take you along
on his international
successes.
But, here's what I think.
If these baby
rumors are true,
you're going to win
the consolation prize
and be right back in that
lead judge's chair in no time.
Well, I can't really
comment on that.
But if Ben and Antonia
are expecting,
I'd be truly happy for them.
Hmmm.
Everyone deserves to be happy.
Well, that's true.
I think sometimes in
our line of work,
we put so much energy out
there into our public persona,
we forget to take care of our
inner selves, right here.
So I want you to remember,
this is a safe space, okay,
where you can really open up
and talk about how it felt
when Ben and Antonia
didn't have your back.
And now that they're expecting,
can you talk about that?
I'm not meant to
talk about that.
Oh, that's good, thank you.
There you have it!
Ben Sparks and Antonia
Baker are expecting.
Wow! That is fantastic!
All I can really say is that
Ben and Antonia are exactly
where they're supposed to be.
With each other.
Wait, what are you doing?
Los Angeles, you've
been so great to me.
But I've got a
Snowball Trophy to win!
Ah, thank you?
Ah, we're going to go to
commercial. We'll be right back.
What the...
What about
the new season?
I'm taking back my life.
I'm going home to Grand Bend!
Wait! Just give me a
minute to talk about this,
to talk you out of it.
There's nothing to talk about.
I'm celebrating Christmas
upstate New York
with people that I love!
If I make the twelve o'clock
flight I'll be there on time.
Bella! I know how to spin this!
We say you,
you snapped because of all
the emotions swirling around.
I'll get the crew working
on that promo now.
Did you hear what I said?
What do you think?
Fifteen second bits.
Twenty maybe?
Do you have a better spin?
I need a headline!
Bella Fox leaves "Dance Steps"
to pursue her true passion,
her true friends,
and her true love!
That is a terrible pitch!
We don't have it in the budget
to follow you to New York!
Darla...
We had a great run.
Bella!
Marcus, you made it!
Take
some deep breaths.
I've never seen you
this nervous before.
Have you seen Andre and Maureen?
They promised they'd be here.
Maybe the car broke down.
I'm sure they're fine.
It's Christmas Eve.
There's a ton of traffic.
I'm sure you're right.
It's just, I really want
them to see me dance.
To show them my hard work.
- Marcus, you got this.
- You got this, man.
Snow-ball!
Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Snow-ball! Snow-ball! Snow-ball!
Hannah? Are you still here?
Bella!
You came back!
Didn't you see me
on the morning show?
No. I was a little
bit in the dark.
Literally.
Did you miss me?
Of course I missed you!
Now what are you doing
here in the studio?
I came back to see if
Hannah was still here.
No, she went to the Snowball!
Oh! What are we
still doing here?
Come on! Let's go!
Let's go baby.
Just smile and have fun! Okay?
Just don't tell the judges
we don't have
enough participants.
Joy to the world
The Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing
And Heaven and Heaven
and nature sing
Joy to the world
The Savior rings
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding
the sounding joy
The wonder of His love
Thank you everybody.
And in first
place for the jive it's
Hannah Kyle School of Dance!
Congratulations.
Yes, well done.
You so deserved to win.
You came!
Oh, I should never have left.
This is home.
I see Will is here.
Uh huh.
Do you have anything
you want to share?
Let's unpack that later.
Wait. Are you going to stay and
be my partner for the studio?
Please say yes!
Oh, Santa, bring me a yes!
Yes!
I'm finally ready to
put down some roots.
Oh, salsa time!
Reba! Can you go
on with Marcus?
Maureen's not here.
You'll be great!
Santa Santa
I already feel so lucky
To be stuck in a
blizzard of snow
My baby and me all alone
It's the holidays
And you're here with me
Dancing circles
in our cozy home
Ugly sweater phase
And matching PJs
Drunk in love and
sleeping in all day
Being in love with you is
like a dream come true
Don't need no
presents to hold
Just you wrapped up in a bow
Santa, Santa
I already feel so lucky
Feeling so magical
Having you is all I want
And thank you dancers!
And the winner
of the Salsa is
Hannah Kyle School of Dance!
We're still kind
of a dancer short.
Kind of?
Fine. I'm two dancers short.
And we need to win the last
dance to win the big three!
Yeah, that would be amazing.
I know.
But I don't have a couple
that can place high enough
to win a trophy
in the waltz.
Well what happened to Andre?
He's recovering
from an accident.
- Oh oh.
- A bike accident.
No, he's fine, he's fine.
It looks like Bella and
I can be of assistance.
Ha ha. Very funny Will.
Hannah, give him a chance.
Do I have a choice?
Okay, Will. Suit up.
We got you!
Thank you, Bella.
Thank you so much.
We made it!
Sorry I'm late! Sorry!
Coming up next,
the Snowball Waltz!
Any last words?
Just, that I love that
we're doing this.
I love you too.
Silent night
Holy night
All is calm
All is bright
Round yon virgin
Mother and child
Holy infant so
tender and mild
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Ladies and gentlemen.
The judges have deliberated.
The results are in.
The winner is...
From Hannah Kyle
School of Dance.
Yes!
We did it!
I've wrapped my presents and
got my letters all sent
I like to think that I am
super damn well prepared
You're right here,
where you belong.
Right here with you.
Merry Christmas, Bella.
Merry Christmas, Will.
We can go to bed
before it snows
So I follow the
brightest star
Except my own two feet
don't walk that far
Right into your heart
I need a Christmas Spark
No I don't bare gifts
I'm not that wise
But I can ask Saint Nick
if he don't mind
Giving me your heart
Cos I need a Christmas Spark
So I follow the
brightest star
Except my own two feet
don't walk that far
Right into your heart
I need a Christmas Spark
No I don't bare gifts
I'm not that wise
But I can ask Saint
Nick if he don't mind
Giving me your heart
Cos I need a
Christmas Spark tonight
