It's a little bit like putting up 94 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: the Christmas tree. But still, you know, I've already had 95 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: one of your cupcakes that you're delivering.

Now you can probably tell which 100 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 3: ones I was more creating. This is the one that 101 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 3: Lara was kind of more creative. 102 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 4: Oh really, what are you the reindeer? 103 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 3: That's the more the collapsed Christmas tree. 104 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that looks like the. 105 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: Can you run through the plot line for a Christmas crisis? 106 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: Of course we can. 107 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 2: Well, so we sort of weave together four tales of 108 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 2: Christmas woe. We've got a Hallmark thread, which is sort 109 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 2: of my character, the baker running a cupcake maker cupcake 110 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: shop that's sort of crumbling in this economy. We've got 111 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 2: climate change, we've got the clause, we've got the clauses 112 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 2: going through a tricky breakup. And we've got the elves 113 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 2: who are sort of crumbling under consumerism team who's kind 114 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 2: of taken over. They used to be artists and now 115 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: they're sort of packing warehouses. 116 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 3: So there's a punk element to it. But I'll just 117 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 3: say with so Lara pays Ashley the cupcake maker, but 118 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 3: a prince comes in to make a big order of cupcakes, 119 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 3: but she doesn't realize. She thinks he's the courier. So 120 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 3: it's the old classic and he's like the prince after him, 121 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 3: but she used to go and deliver the cupcakes. It's 122 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 3: all very inspired by Oh, Shakespearean. We were thinking more 123 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 3: kind of like cheesy kind of hallmark for returning home 124 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: to your hometown and falling in love with the turkey farmer, 125 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 3: that kind of. 126 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: And then we sort of culminate the whole thing and 127 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 2: this sort of mash up of movie references. Die Hard 128 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: of course, Speed too, Cruise Control is. 129 00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: Their home alone reference. 130 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 3: Oh these flashes of us? 131 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, Love actually, yes, I put one in last night.
