Life returns to normal for Landon. His father is back in Washington, D.C.; Landon and his friends sneak out to spend late nights at the graveyard; and Landon doesn't see Jamie very much. Eventually Jamie calls Landon, although he first thinks the voice is Angela's. Jamie asks Landon whether they can talk, an idea that repels Landon, but he agrees to see her that day. As when Landon asked her on their date, the two sit outside because Reverend Sullivan does not allow Jamie to be alone in the house with a young man. Jamie asks Landon whether he'd be willing to audition to play the part of Tom Thornton in this year's The Christmas Angel, taking over for Eddie Jones, who stammers. Jamie insists that she is asking not because Eddie's stammering embarrasses her but because she wants the production to be perfect this year for her father, whom she loves. Landon reluctantly agrees, wondering if he really even had an option the saying no to her request.
