They’re about to say goodnight after having an amazing night together in the hotel lobby. They’re talking like they’ll be on the same plane in the morning, so they’ll see each other again in just four hours. The next morning, he’s nowhere to be found. She really has to leave for the airport. She knows his last name but not his room number, so she leaves her number on a sticky note with the lady at the front desk. Cut to Dave — his alarm was set for PM. He rushes to the airport without stopping by the front desk. Womp womp. They both start searching online for each other, but it’s just impossible. We learn how they met in the first place: a bad storm delayed both of their flights, so they went to a nearby hotel. She bumped into Dave on the way in, the doors instantly flew open, and they spent the whole night talking. They know Chicago is home for both of them. Through conversations with their loved ones in the present day, we get flashbacks of the night before. We find out she’s in fashion, and he’s in finance and wants the perfect Christmas to honor his late father. They’re different, but it works. She remembers some of the things he told her he was going to do on Christmas, including visiting his childhood home. She’s explaining it to her friend, and her friend’s like, “Oh, I know that house.” When they pull up, it’s a new construction still being built. Dead end. He remembers her talking about this coffee shop, so he goes there. Another dead end — but he leaves his number. She posts her story on a missed-connections app and gets a hit — a guy named David asks to meet at that same coffee shop. A woman shows up saying she works for a guy named Dave. Unfortunately, wrong Dave. Hate to see it. They have another close encounter at a Christmas concert — she went to the early show, he went to the late show. He remembers that she invited him to a Christmas Eve service. He just has to find that church. But first — the Christmas tree lot. They both happen to be there at the same time but don’t bump into each other. We get to see the goodnight scene again, but this time we see that he stopped the elevator from closing completely and came back to kiss her real good. They also bump into each other again at another Christmas pageant — he even sees her through the crowd but assumes he’s hallucinating. She makes one last-ditch effort by asking a radio DJ to read a message on-air asking him to meet her in front of a Christmas tree — but he never shows. He discovers that his sister bought one of Annie’s handmade dresses at the market. He runs down there, but it’s closed. Still, he decides to give the church a shot — and wouldn’t you know it? They find each other. They both say they’ve been looking for each other! He immediately gets her number and asks her out on a proper date. They celebrate finding each other with a kiss as the snow falls around them. Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtube Interested in advertising on the show?
