Best character
I feel so bad for Lily when she’s telling Dash about her worst Christmas. Kids are so mean! This is exactly how I felt as child and actually right up to university. I’ve never really fit in so I really resonate with Lily.

Best quotes and one liners
LILY: What do I want for Christmas? I want to get to know you, Notebook Boy. Take me somewhere special, some place in the city that feels like you.
DASH: The most me isn’t a place, Lily. It’s a time. Be inside Grand Central Terminal
before the first train arrives. I know it’s early, but I promise’ It is worth it. There are few moments when you can find stillness in the middle of the city, when you can enjoy the heart of New York without the crush of people. Tell me what you see.
LILY: I see the arch over the windows. It’s still dark outside. But in here, the sky is lit up with constellations. The world feels big and small and all mine.
BOOMER: It’s so cute how protective you are over your paper girlfriend.
Final thoughts and fun facts
Sadly, this episode isn’t the most festive, but you do get a lot of character and relationship/friendship development. Lily’s self doubt and lack of confidence is all too relatable, but she does grow a lot during the episode.
