Cut to the following Christmas: they’re hosting both of their families in the new house. But it quickly becomes clear that things in Loveland are not as perfect as they seem. Liv is extremely stressed, while Daniel’s solution is basically, “You should just put all that stress in a box somewhere.” Shockingly, this does not help.The tension boils over into an argument, and they decide to take a break. The problem? Neither of them can bring themselves to tell their parents. So they agree to pretend everything is fine for the holidays.Once the families arrive, chaos ensues. Liv’s dad is aggressively committed to traditions she hates — including an absolutely unhinged candy game. Daniel’s sister immediately clocks that something is wrong and confronts him.

Their families don’t help. Everyone has opinions about everything, and it’s exhausting.Things finally come to a head when Liv finds the engagement ring Daniel had planned to use.At last, they come clean to the entire family. Realizing they haven’t been giving each other what they actually need, Liv and Daniel choose to recommit to one another. They make up, kiss, and Daniel officially proposes.And, in the true spirit of Christmas miracles, a Gobler Farms turkey is delivered on Christmas morning.

He says, “Let me do it, I have a record.” She says, “Let me do it, I can break into the safe.” They both go for it.Cut back two weeks. We see the same gal, Sophia, pickpocket a guy who is being mean to some buskers. We then see that guy from the beginning, Nick, trying to find a new flat, but everything is too expensive. Sophia goes to work at a fancy store called Sterlings — the same store she was planning to rob at the beginning. She hates it when people are mean, so when a customer mistreats an employee, she steals the woman’s dog’s diamond collar.Nick, who works at a cell phone repair shop, watches the Sterlings security cameras and sees her do this — and also notices her stealing some petty cash. But there’s a good reason: her mom is very sick and needs expensive treatment.Nick visits her the next day, asks if she knows where he could find a diamond collar, and hands her a USB before scurrying off. That night, Sophia watches the video — it’s footage of her stealing, along with a message to meet him the next day.She meets him, and he blackmails her into helping him rob the Sterlings security locker. She says no while pickpocketing his locker. Needing the money, she reluctantly agrees to help him in exchange for a cut, since she knows his identity as the guy who installed the security footage and was previously arrested for theft.They successfully break in, only to find that the locker is already empty. They decide to call a truce.The next day at work, Sophia finds out that someone really did steal all the items (she suspects it’s Nick). She also overhears that Sterling keeps $500,000 in cash in his office’s personal safe. She goes to talk to Nick and overhears him having a conversation with his ex about her and their child moving away. He promises Sophia he didn’t rob the store without her. They agree to work together again.Sophia figures out what kind of safe it is and assures Nick she can crack it. But they need a key fob that generates a new code every sixty seconds, which Sterling keeps in his bedroom. Sophia tells Nick they need to find a way to get into Sterling’s bedroom to steal the fob.Nick admits to Sophia that he never actually stole from Sterlings. The owner did it himself for the insurance money. He framed Nick, who took a plea deal to avoid missing his daughter’s life.They consider giving up until they learn that Sterling’s wife — who hates him — will be at a fancy gala. They hatch a plan: get him in, seduce her, and have her bring him back to her place so they can steal the fob. They get all dressed up for the gala, and it works. But back at her place, Sterling’s wife recognizes Nick. They’ve been found out. She offers to give them the fob if they cut her into the deal.They plan a new break-in after the store closes on Christmas Eve. The fob works, but when the door opens, they discover another door requiring Sterling’s DNA. All seems lost — until Sophia uses her own DNA. It turns out Sterling is her father. Her mom worked there, Sterling got her pregnant, then fired her and cut her off completely.They get inside, grab the money, and on their way out, a security guard comes.
