1
00:02:42,470 --> 00:02:47,104
- Ah. It was a fine meal.
- Yes, it was, wasn't it?

2
00:02:47,178 --> 00:02:48,770
Yes, what should we do now?

3
00:02:48,848 --> 00:02:52,618
- Let's have lunch.
- Oh, good idea.

4
00:02:52,689 --> 00:02:54,661
Quiet down, you villains.

5
00:02:54,727 --> 00:02:57,288
I'm being stolen.
Help me, help me!

6
00:02:57,365 --> 00:02:59,229
Put me down!

7
00:03:01,806 --> 00:03:03,033
Hello.

8
00:03:09,220 --> 00:03:11,018
What about my nose?

9
00:03:13,628 --> 00:03:16,225
Banana peels coming down!

10
00:03:18,569 --> 00:03:21,563
Come along, ladies.
Here's a nice Christmas turkey.

11
00:03:21,643 --> 00:03:24,410
Turkey.
Get your Christmas turkey.

12
00:03:24,482 --> 00:03:27,715
Hey, get back in the box, Martin!

13
00:03:27,786 --> 00:03:31,693
Get your boomerang fish.
Guaranteed fresh.

14
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,759
Throw the fish away
and it comes back to me.

15
00:03:35,836 --> 00:03:37,601
Get 'em while they're fresh.

16
00:03:37,673 --> 00:03:39,768
- Christmas apples.
- We got Macintosh.

17
00:03:39,844 --> 00:03:41,814
- Christmas apples.
- Red Delicious.

18
00:03:41,881 --> 00:03:43,784
Tuppence apiece, while they last.

19
00:03:43,852 --> 00:03:47,051
We... They won't last long
the way you're eating them.

20
00:03:47,122 --> 00:03:49,890
I'm creating scarcity.
Drives the prices up.

21
00:03:49,962 --> 00:03:51,898
Rizzo...

22
00:03:51,966 --> 00:03:55,872
Hello. Welcome to
the Muppet Christmas Carol.

23
00:03:55,940 --> 00:03:57,669
I am here to tell the story.

24
00:03:57,745 --> 00:03:59,507
And I am here for the food.

25
00:03:59,580 --> 00:04:01,378
My name is Charles Dickens.

26
00:04:01,450 --> 00:04:03,445
And my name is Rizzo the Rat.

27
00:04:03,523 --> 00:04:06,219
Wait a second,
you're not Charles Dickens.

28
00:04:06,291 --> 00:04:07,522
I am, too.

29
00:04:07,595 --> 00:04:10,588
A blue furry Charles Dickens
who hangs out with a rat?

30
00:04:10,667 --> 00:04:11,794
Absolutely.

31
00:04:11,868 --> 00:04:14,670
Charles Dickens
was a 19th century novelist.

32
00:04:14,743 --> 00:04:15,970
A genius.

33
00:04:16,043 --> 00:04:17,842
You are too kind.

34
00:04:17,914 --> 00:04:19,817
Why should I believe you?

35
00:04:19,885 --> 00:04:23,483
<i>Because I know the story of A Christmas
Carol like the back of my hand.</i>

36
00:04:23,558 --> 00:04:25,755
- Prove it.
- All right.

37
00:04:25,828 --> 00:04:28,197
There's a little mole on my thumb.

38
00:04:28,266 --> 00:04:31,762
And a scar on my wrist
from when I fell off my bicycle...

39
00:04:31,841 --> 00:04:34,778
No, don't tell us your hand,
tell us the story.

40
00:04:34,845 --> 00:04:36,941
Oh, thank you. Yes.

41
00:04:37,016 --> 00:04:40,146
The Marleys were dead,
to begin with.

42
00:04:40,223 --> 00:04:41,419
The... Pardon me?

43
00:04:41,493 --> 00:04:43,223
That's how the story begins,

44
00:04:43,295 --> 00:04:45,696
"The Marleys were dead,
to begin with."

45
00:04:45,765 --> 00:04:48,202
As dead as a doornail.

46
00:04:48,271 --> 00:04:51,675
It's a good beginning.
It's creepy and kind of... spooky.

47
00:04:51,745 --> 00:04:54,442
- Thank you, Rizzo.
- You're welcome, Mr. Dickens.

48
00:04:54,516 --> 00:04:57,284
In life, the Marleys had been
business partners

49
00:04:57,357 --> 00:05:01,763
with a shrewd moneylender
named Ebenezer Scrooge.

50
00:05:01,831 --> 00:05:04,926
You will meet him
as he comes around that corner.

51
00:05:05,001 --> 00:05:06,302
- Where?
- There.

52
00:05:06,373 --> 00:05:08,467
- When?
- Now.

53
00:05:10,411 --> 00:05:13,873
There he is,
Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge.

54
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,263
Say, is it getting cold around here?

55
00:05:26,743 --> 00:05:29,543
<i>When a cold wind blows,
it chills you</i>

56
00:05:29,615 --> 00:05:31,608
<i>Chills you to the bone</i>

57
00:05:31,685 --> 00:05:34,178
<i>But there's nothing in nature
that freezes your heart</i>

58
00:05:34,256 --> 00:05:36,251
<i>Like years of being alone</i>

59
00:05:36,328 --> 00:05:39,127
<i>It paints you with indifference</i>

60
00:05:39,199 --> 00:05:41,534
<i>Like a lady paints with rouge</i>

61
00:05:41,605 --> 00:05:44,041
<i>And the worst of the worst,
the most hated and cursed</i>

62
00:05:44,109 --> 00:05:46,444
<i>Is the one that we call Scrooge</i>

63
00:05:46,513 --> 00:05:48,949
<i>- Unkind as any
- And the wrath of many</i>

64
00:05:49,018 --> 00:05:51,045
<i>This is Ebenezer Scrooge</i>

65
00:05:51,121 --> 00:05:56,065
<i>There goes Mr. Humbug
There goes Mr. Grim</i>

66
00:05:56,132 --> 00:05:58,760
<i>If they gave a prize for being mean</i>

67
00:05:58,835 --> 00:06:00,931
<i>The winner would be him</i>

68
00:06:01,008 --> 00:06:03,034
<i>Old Scrooge, he loves his money</i>

69
00:06:03,112 --> 00:06:05,878
<i>'Cause he thinks it gives him power</i>

70
00:06:05,949 --> 00:06:11,984
<i>If he became a flavor
You can bet he would be sour</i>

71
00:06:12,061 --> 00:06:14,328
Even the vegetables don't like him.

72
00:06:16,069 --> 00:06:20,532
<i>There goes Mr. Skinflint
There goes Mr. Greed</i>

73
00:06:21,011 --> 00:06:25,679
<i>The undisputed master
of the underhanded deed</i>

74
00:06:25,754 --> 00:06:27,813
<i>He charges folks a fortune</i>

75
00:06:27,890 --> 00:06:30,589
<i>For his dark and drafty houses</i>

76
00:06:30,662 --> 00:06:32,997
<i>Us poor folk live in misery</i>

77
00:06:33,069 --> 00:06:36,561
<i>It's even worse for mouses</i>

78
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,170
Please, sir, I want some cheese.

79
00:06:40,246 --> 00:06:42,811
<i>He must be so lonely</i>

80
00:06:42,887 --> 00:06:45,186
<i>He must be so sad</i>

81
00:06:45,256 --> 00:06:50,027
<i>He goes to extremes
to convince us he's bad</i>

82
00:06:50,100 --> 00:06:52,594
<i>He's really a victim</i>

83
00:06:52,673 --> 00:06:55,071
<i>Of fear and of pride</i>

84
00:06:55,140 --> 00:07:00,778
<i>Look close and there must be
a sweet man inside</i>

85
00:07:01,586 --> 00:07:03,079
- Nah.
- Uh-uh.

86
00:07:03,157 --> 00:07:05,592
<i>There goes Mr. Outrage</i>

87
00:07:05,660 --> 00:07:08,130
<i>There goes Mr. Sneer</i>

88
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:10,430
<i>He has no time for friends or fun</i>

89
00:07:10,503 --> 00:07:12,633
<i>His anger makes that clear</i>

90
00:07:12,708 --> 00:07:17,478
<i>Don't ask him for a favor
'cause his nastiness increases</i>

91
00:07:17,550 --> 00:07:20,113
<i>No crust of bread for those in need</i>

92
00:07:20,188 --> 00:07:23,058
<i>No cheeses for us "meeces"</i>

93
00:07:23,127 --> 00:07:24,856
Scrooge liked the cold.

94
00:07:24,930 --> 00:07:27,197
He was hard and sharp as a flint.

95
00:07:27,269 --> 00:07:29,101
Secret and self-contained.

96
00:07:29,172 --> 00:07:31,335
As solitary as an oyster.

97
00:07:31,410 --> 00:07:33,709
<i>There goes Mr. Heartless</i>

98
00:07:33,780 --> 00:07:35,975
<i>There goes Mr. Cruel</i>

99
00:07:36,052 --> 00:07:38,614
<i>He never gives
He only takes</i>

100
00:07:38,689 --> 00:07:40,887
<i>He lets his hunger rule</i>

101
00:07:40,962 --> 00:07:45,766
<i>If being mean's a way of life
you practice and rehearse</i>

102
00:07:45,838 --> 00:07:48,307
<i>Then all that work is paying off</i>

103
00:07:48,374 --> 00:07:51,039
<i>'Cause Scrooge is getting worse</i>

104
00:07:51,114 --> 00:07:55,781
<i>Every day, in every way
Scrooge is getting worse</i>

105
00:07:56,623 --> 00:07:58,649
- [male] Oh, boy.
- How the time flies.

106
00:07:58,726 --> 00:08:00,664
Look at this, I've got to move...

107
00:08:04,570 --> 00:08:05,903
Humbug.

108
00:08:12,119 --> 00:08:15,888
Phew! What an unpleasant fellow.

109
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:21,367
He was a tightfisted hand
at the grindstone, Scroo...

110
00:08:21,436 --> 00:08:23,905
Boy, this really is a dirty city.

111
00:08:23,972 --> 00:08:26,343
Ha. You tellin' me.

112
00:08:30,119 --> 00:08:32,749
Thank you for making me
a part of this.

113
00:08:32,822 --> 00:08:36,763
He was a tightfisted hand
at the grindstone, Scrooge.

114
00:08:36,832 --> 00:08:40,930
A squeezing, wrenching,
grasping, clutching...

115
00:08:41,005 --> 00:08:43,304
covetous old sinner.

116
00:08:45,315 --> 00:08:46,977
Bob Cratchit?

117
00:08:47,051 --> 00:08:48,245
Yes, Mr. Scrooge?

118
00:08:48,319 --> 00:08:50,051
Who is this?

119
00:08:50,123 --> 00:08:51,750
Mr. Applegate, sir.

120
00:08:51,825 --> 00:08:54,457
He's here to speak to you
about his... mortgage.

121
00:08:54,532 --> 00:08:56,866
Mr. Scrooge,
I know you're very angry about this,

122
00:08:56,936 --> 00:08:59,463
and I didn't mean to
fall behind in the payment.

123
00:08:59,542 --> 00:09:01,909
Lord knows,
it being Christmas and all.

124
00:09:01,978 --> 00:09:04,075
Please don't shout at me, sir.

125
00:09:04,150 --> 00:09:07,177
That and, of course, little Gwen.
Her lungs aren't right.

126
00:09:07,253 --> 00:09:09,521
The doctor takes his share, don't he?

127
00:09:09,593 --> 00:09:11,687
You can yell and scream,
and you're right,

128
00:09:11,763 --> 00:09:13,530
but it won't do no good...

129
00:09:13,601 --> 00:09:16,264
because I'm the stone
you can't squeeze blood from.

130
00:09:16,338 --> 00:09:18,604
And that's the truth!

131
00:09:18,676 --> 00:09:20,975
Thank you for not shouting at me.

132
00:09:21,047 --> 00:09:23,917
[Workers] 17... 42...

133
00:09:23,986 --> 00:09:27,447
Let us deal with the eviction notices
for tomorrow, Mr. Cratchit.

134
00:09:27,526 --> 00:09:29,359
Uh...

135
00:09:29,431 --> 00:09:30,898
Tomorrow's Christmas, sir.

136
00:09:30,966 --> 00:09:34,771
Very well, you may gift wrap them.

137
00:09:34,839 --> 00:09:37,334
Let us help you with that,
Mr. Cratchit.

138
00:09:37,412 --> 00:09:39,677
My, there are certainly a lot today.

139
00:09:39,748 --> 00:09:40,738
We'll get it.

140
00:09:40,817 --> 00:09:43,050
I'm okay, okay.

141
00:09:43,122 --> 00:09:45,056
- Here you go.
- Look out on that end...

142
00:09:47,229 --> 00:09:49,163
- Uh...
- [workers] Whoa!

143
00:09:50,568 --> 00:09:53,699
Christmas is a very busy time for us,
Mr. Cratchit.

144
00:09:53,774 --> 00:09:57,008
People preparing feasts, giving parties.

145
00:09:57,081 --> 00:10:00,612
Spending the mortgage money
on frivolities.

146
00:10:00,686 --> 00:10:04,388
One might say that December
is the foreclosure season.

147
00:10:04,462 --> 00:10:08,869
Harvest time for the moneylenders.

148
00:10:08,937 --> 00:10:10,461
- Boss, ask him.
- Tell him.

149
00:10:10,539 --> 00:10:13,773
- Come on. Come on.
- Do it now. Do it.

150
00:10:13,846 --> 00:10:16,716
If you please, Mr. Scrooge,
it's gotten colder.

151
00:10:16,786 --> 00:10:20,518
The bookkeeping staff would like to have
an extra shovel of coal for the fire.

152
00:10:20,591 --> 00:10:23,620
- We can't do the bookkeeping.
- Our pens are like ink-cicles.

153
00:10:23,698 --> 00:10:25,529
Our assets are frozen.

154
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,404
How would the bookkeepers
like to be suddenly unemployed?

155
00:10:29,474 --> 00:10:31,308
Heat wave!

156
00:10:31,379 --> 00:10:34,837
This is my island in the sun!

157
00:10:34,918 --> 00:10:38,255
I, I believe you've convinced them
once again, Mr. Scrooge.

158
00:10:41,464 --> 00:10:44,264
At that moment,
who should arrive at the door

159
00:10:44,334 --> 00:10:48,434
but Scrooge's nephew, Fred.
His only living relative.

160
00:10:48,510 --> 00:10:51,004
- Nephew Fred? I don't see him.
- Trust me.

161
00:10:52,516 --> 00:10:54,646
Hello? Uncle?

162
00:10:56,860 --> 00:10:57,850
Rizzo?

163
00:10:57,928 --> 00:11:00,365
You're very good at that, Mr. Dickens.

164
00:11:00,434 --> 00:11:03,700
A merry Christmas, Uncle Scrooge.
God save you.

165
00:11:03,771 --> 00:11:05,367
Merry Christmas?

166
00:11:05,443 --> 00:11:07,708
Bah. Humbug!

167
00:11:07,780 --> 00:11:09,773
Quick, it'll be warmer in there.

168
00:11:13,957 --> 00:11:17,624
Christmas a humbug, Uncle?
You don't mean that, surely.

169
00:11:17,699 --> 00:11:19,727
Actually, I think it's colder in here.

170
00:11:19,803 --> 00:11:22,706
Merry Christmas, you say?
What right have you to be merry?

171
00:11:22,773 --> 00:11:24,267
You're poor enough.

172
00:11:24,346 --> 00:11:26,508
And you to be dismal?
You're rich enough.

173
00:11:26,582 --> 00:11:28,743
He's got him.
The old boy's speechless.

174
00:11:28,818 --> 00:11:30,880
If I could work my will,

175
00:11:30,956 --> 00:11:34,123
every idiot who goes about with
"Merry Christmas" on his lips

176
00:11:34,198 --> 00:11:36,028
would be cooked with his own turkey

177
00:11:36,100 --> 00:11:39,163
and buried with a stake of holly
through his heart.

178
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,071
Well, not quite speechless.

179
00:11:41,142 --> 00:11:42,633
- Uncle...
- Nephew.

180
00:11:42,712 --> 00:11:46,583
You keep Christmas in your own way,
and let me keep it in mine.

181
00:11:46,652 --> 00:11:50,593
Christmas is a loving,
honest and charitable time.

182
00:11:50,661 --> 00:11:54,191
And though it's never put
a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket,

183
00:11:54,268 --> 00:11:56,999
I believe Christmas has done me good
and will do me good,

184
00:11:57,072 --> 00:11:58,734
and I say, God bless it.

185
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,517
And how does one celebrate Christmas
on the unemployment line?

186
00:12:06,791 --> 00:12:09,763
Now, in these times,
it was customary on Christmas Eve

187
00:12:09,830 --> 00:12:12,527
for well-meaning gentlemen
to call upon businesses,

188
00:12:12,602 --> 00:12:16,301
collecting donations
for the poor and homeless.

189
00:12:16,975 --> 00:12:19,002
Mr. Scrooge, I presume?

190
00:12:21,517 --> 00:12:22,714
Who are you?

191
00:12:22,787 --> 00:12:26,485
We're from the Order of Victoria
Charity Foundation.

192
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,360
We'd like to speak to you
about a donation.

193
00:12:29,431 --> 00:12:31,366
Ah! Welcome!

194
00:12:31,435 --> 00:12:34,031
This jolly old gentleman here
is Mr. Scrooge.

195
00:12:34,108 --> 00:12:36,475
He's very generous to charities.

196
00:12:36,543 --> 00:12:38,071
My dear nephew!

197
00:12:38,147 --> 00:12:41,211
At this festive season of the year,
Mr. Scrooge,

198
00:12:41,286 --> 00:12:45,590
many of us feel we must
take care of our poor and homeless.

199
00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:48,224
Are there no prisons?
No poor houses?

200
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:50,565
Oh, plenty of those, sir.

201
00:12:50,637 --> 00:12:52,301
Oh. Excellent.

202
00:12:52,375 --> 00:12:54,173
For a moment, I was worried.

203
00:12:54,245 --> 00:12:58,516
Some of us are endeavoring to raise
a fund for the poor and homeless.

204
00:12:58,588 --> 00:13:00,987
What might I put you down for?

205
00:13:01,057 --> 00:13:02,082
Nothing.

206
00:13:02,161 --> 00:13:06,226
- You wish to remain anonymous?
- I wish to be left alone.

207
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:08,362
I do not make merry myself
for Christmas.

208
00:13:08,439 --> 00:13:09,531
That certainly is true.

209
00:13:09,673 --> 00:13:11,644
I cannot afford
to make idle people merry.

210
00:13:11,711 --> 00:13:13,269
That is certainly not true.

211
00:13:13,346 --> 00:13:15,977
Don't you have other things to do
this afternoon?

212
00:13:16,053 --> 00:13:19,512
Sadly, I do, Uncle.
So I shall make my donation.

213
00:13:19,592 --> 00:13:22,222
And leave you to make yours.

214
00:13:22,299 --> 00:13:24,028
Thank you so very much.

215
00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:28,268
Oh, Uncle, come and have Christmas
dinner with me and Clara tomorrow.

216
00:13:28,342 --> 00:13:30,174
Why ever did you get married?

217
00:13:30,246 --> 00:13:32,271
Why? Because I fell in love.

218
00:13:34,452 --> 00:13:37,721
That's the only thing in the world
sillier than a merry Christmas.

219
00:13:37,793 --> 00:13:40,664
It's no use, I shall keep
my Christmas humor to the last.

220
00:13:40,732 --> 00:13:44,170
A merry Christmas to you.
And a happy New Year.

221
00:13:44,237 --> 00:13:46,642
- Merry Christmas, Fred.
- Merry Christmas, Bob.

222
00:13:46,710 --> 00:13:48,042
Humbug!

223
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,046
Ahem.

224
00:13:59,536 --> 00:14:02,300
Now, then, sir, about the...

225
00:14:02,373 --> 00:14:04,068
donation.

226
00:14:04,778 --> 00:14:06,644
Well, now.

227
00:14:06,714 --> 00:14:08,443
Let's see.

228
00:14:09,687 --> 00:14:12,679
I know how to treat the poor.

229
00:14:12,757 --> 00:14:16,198
My taxes go to pay for the prisons
and the poorhouses.

230
00:14:16,266 --> 00:14:19,032
- The homeless must go there.
- But some would rather die.

231
00:14:19,105 --> 00:14:21,699
If they'd rather die,
then they'd better do it,

232
00:14:21,774 --> 00:14:23,770
and decrease the surplus population.

233
00:14:23,846 --> 00:14:26,509
Oh, dear. Oh, dear.

234
00:14:26,585 --> 00:14:30,490
This is the door, you may use it.

235
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:32,424
All right, Beaker, come along.

236
00:14:32,495 --> 00:14:36,434
I think we've taken enough
of Mr. Scrooge's time.

237
00:14:36,503 --> 00:14:39,407
Oh, dear. Dear, dear.

238
00:14:39,475 --> 00:14:43,142
[Workers] 17... 24... 58.

239
00:14:43,217 --> 00:14:46,277
<i>Good King Wencelas looked out
on the Feast of Stephen</i>

240
00:14:46,355 --> 00:14:49,556
<i>Though the snow lay round about,
deep and crisp and even</i>

241
00:14:49,628 --> 00:14:52,428
<i>Brightly shone the moon
that... night,</i>

242
00:14:52,499 --> 00:14:54,094
<i>Though... the...</i>

243
00:14:56,306 --> 00:15:00,577
- What do you want?
- Uh... Penny for the song, guvnor?

244
00:15:06,892 --> 00:15:08,419
Wh... Ow!

245
00:15:11,502 --> 00:15:13,199
17... 24...

246
00:15:26,831 --> 00:15:32,034
Excuse me, Mr. Scrooge,
but it appears to be closing time.

247
00:15:33,209 --> 00:15:37,376
Very well. I'll see you
at eight tomorrow morning.

248
00:15:38,654 --> 00:15:39,984
Ask him, ask him.

249
00:15:40,055 --> 00:15:41,854
Um... Tomorrow's Christmas.

250
00:15:41,926 --> 00:15:44,225
8:30, then.

251
00:15:44,296 --> 00:15:45,695
If you please, sir,

252
00:15:45,764 --> 00:15:48,669
half an hour off hardly seems customary
for Christmas Day.

253
00:15:48,738 --> 00:15:51,676
- [Worker] No.
- [Worker 2] Hardly customary.

254
00:15:51,744 --> 00:15:54,510
How much time off is customary,
Mr. Cratchit?

255
00:15:54,582 --> 00:15:58,180
Um... Why, um, the, er, whole day.

256
00:15:58,255 --> 00:16:00,121
- Yeah, that's right.
- The whole day.

257
00:16:00,191 --> 00:16:01,559
The entire day?

258
00:16:01,628 --> 00:16:03,654
- No.
- That's the frog's idea.

259
00:16:03,732 --> 00:16:06,830
If you please,
why open the office tomorrow?

260
00:16:06,906 --> 00:16:10,401
Other businesses will be closed.
You'll have no one to do business with.

261
00:16:10,479 --> 00:16:13,939
It'll waste a lot of expensive coal
for the fire.

262
00:16:14,018 --> 00:16:17,184
- That's definitely a point.
- That's a point.

263
00:16:17,257 --> 00:16:20,993
It's a poor excuse for picking
a man's pocket every December the 25th.

264
00:16:23,835 --> 00:16:27,071
But as I seem to be
the only person around who knows that...

265
00:16:28,378 --> 00:16:31,077
...take the day off.

266
00:16:35,592 --> 00:16:37,824
Will you stop that?

267
00:16:39,232 --> 00:16:41,225
Thank you, Mr. Scrooge.

268
00:16:42,937 --> 00:16:44,910
Be here all the earlier
the next morning.

269
00:16:44,977 --> 00:16:47,607
- [Worker] Okay.
- [Worker 2] You bet. First thing.

270
00:16:50,921 --> 00:16:53,082
With their employer gone at last,

271
00:16:53,157 --> 00:16:55,789
Bob Cratchit and the bookkeepers
immediately began

272
00:16:55,864 --> 00:17:00,703
that most pleasant of activities,
the celebration of Christmas.

273
00:17:00,772 --> 00:17:03,744
He's gone!

274
00:17:03,813 --> 00:17:06,145
Gentlemen, let's close up for Christmas.

275
00:17:07,985 --> 00:17:10,956
<i>There's magic in the air this evening</i>

276
00:17:11,024 --> 00:17:13,152
<i>Magic in the air</i>

277
00:17:13,228 --> 00:17:15,995
<i>The world is at her best, you know</i>

278
00:17:16,067 --> 00:17:18,505
<i>When people love and care</i>

279
00:17:18,573 --> 00:17:23,035
<i>The promise of excitement
is one the night will keep</i>

280
00:17:23,116 --> 00:17:28,057
<i>After all, there's only
one more sleep till Christmas</i>

281
00:17:38,944 --> 00:17:40,845
<i>The world has got a smile</i>

282
00:17:40,914 --> 00:17:43,909
<i>Today, the world has got a glow</i>

283
00:17:43,987 --> 00:17:46,787
<i>There's no such thing as strangers</i>

284
00:17:46,857 --> 00:17:48,884
<i>When a stranger says hello</i>

285
00:17:48,963 --> 00:17:51,489
<i>And everyone is family</i>

286
00:17:51,568 --> 00:17:53,868
<i>We're having so much fun</i>

287
00:17:53,939 --> 00:17:58,880
<i>After all, there's only one
more sleep till Christmas</i>

288
00:18:00,985 --> 00:18:03,182
Okay, ready. Here we go.

289
00:18:18,083 --> 00:18:19,607
That's it. Ha! Ha!

290
00:18:19,687 --> 00:18:21,679
Mm-hm.

291
00:18:23,725 --> 00:18:25,888
Very good, gentlemen.

292
00:18:27,768 --> 00:18:32,266
<i>'Tis the season to be jolly and joyous</i>

293
00:18:33,244 --> 00:18:36,685
<i>With a burst of pleasure,
we feel it arrive</i>

294
00:18:38,220 --> 00:18:42,752
<i>It's a season
when the saints can employ us</i>

295
00:18:42,829 --> 00:18:47,704
<i>To spread the news about peace
and to keep love alive</i>

296
00:18:47,771 --> 00:18:49,001
What's that?

297
00:18:49,075 --> 00:18:52,047
Look, it's the penguins'
Christmas skating party.

298
00:19:08,644 --> 00:19:10,841
- Hmm. Ah.
- Look at that!

299
00:19:17,329 --> 00:19:19,455
You did good, boss.

300
00:19:19,531 --> 00:19:22,559
Oh, thank you.
Thank you very much.

301
00:19:27,078 --> 00:19:29,048
Wow!

302
00:19:29,115 --> 00:19:31,348
- No way.
- Come on, Rizzo.

303
00:19:36,363 --> 00:19:37,353
Boy.

304
00:19:40,906 --> 00:19:42,202
Fun, huh?

305
00:19:42,274 --> 00:19:44,575
Merry Christmas, penguins.

306
00:19:46,849 --> 00:19:49,252
<i>There's something in the wind today</i>

307
00:19:49,322 --> 00:19:51,916
<i>That's good for everyone</i>

308
00:19:51,991 --> 00:19:54,520
<i>Yes, faith is in our hearts today</i>

309
00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:56,829
<i>We're shining like the sun</i>

310
00:19:56,901 --> 00:19:59,566
<i>And everyone can feel it</i>

311
00:19:59,641 --> 00:20:01,733
<i>The feeling's running deep</i>

312
00:20:01,810 --> 00:20:06,808
<i>After all, there's only
one more sleep till Christmas</i>

313
00:20:06,886 --> 00:20:10,986
<i>After all, there's only one more sleep</i>

314
00:20:11,061 --> 00:20:15,628
<i>Till Christmas Day</i>

315
00:20:15,704 --> 00:20:17,694
Merry Christmas!

316
00:20:36,708 --> 00:20:39,441
Scrooge lived in chambers
which had once belonged

317
00:20:39,514 --> 00:20:42,613
to his old business partners,
Jacob and Robert Marley.

318
00:20:42,688 --> 00:20:44,713
- Have some bread?
- Not while I'm working.

319
00:20:44,791 --> 00:20:46,760
Suit yourself.

320
00:20:46,827 --> 00:20:50,789
The building was a dismal heap of brick
on a dark street.

321
00:20:50,868 --> 00:20:54,135
Once again, you must remember
that the Marleys were dead

322
00:20:54,207 --> 00:20:56,974
- and decaying in their graves.
- Yeuch!

323
00:20:57,047 --> 00:20:59,277
That one thing
you must remember,

324
00:20:59,350 --> 00:21:01,788
or nothing that follows
will seem wondrous.

325
00:21:01,856 --> 00:21:03,380
Why are you whispering?

326
00:21:03,458 --> 00:21:05,654
- It's for dramatic emphasis.
- Oh.

327
00:21:05,728 --> 00:21:07,164
Shh.

328
00:21:31,078 --> 00:21:32,409
Jacob Marley?

329
00:21:38,023 --> 00:21:39,547
You okay?

330
00:21:50,614 --> 00:21:51,945
Humbug.

331
00:21:54,955 --> 00:21:57,424
Oh. Gonzo, speak to me.

332
00:21:57,492 --> 00:22:01,331
I mean, Mr. Dickens.
Charlie! Are you hurt?

333
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,566
To say that Scrooge
was not startled would be untrue.

334
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,078
Still, the moment had passed,
and the world was as it should be.

335
00:22:08,146 --> 00:22:10,708
He ain't hurt.
Didn't even break his concentration.

336
00:22:10,784 --> 00:22:12,515
- Hmm?
- Nothing.

337
00:22:17,263 --> 00:22:19,996
Come on, Rizzo.
We'll follow him in.

338
00:22:20,068 --> 00:22:23,665
In a minute.
I had a bag of jelly beans over here.

339
00:22:23,740 --> 00:22:25,473
Will you just get over here?

340
00:22:25,545 --> 00:22:27,708
- All right.
- Sheesh.

341
00:22:29,153 --> 00:22:31,281
Oh-oh.

342
00:22:33,025 --> 00:22:34,154
Steady, steady.

343
00:22:34,230 --> 00:22:36,699
Scrooge made his way up the stairs,

344
00:22:36,766 --> 00:22:38,759
caring not a button for the darkness.

345
00:22:38,838 --> 00:22:41,399
Darkness was cheap,
and Scrooge liked it.

346
00:22:43,580 --> 00:22:47,313
<i>But the incident at the door
had made Scrooge wary.</i>

347
00:22:47,385 --> 00:22:51,722
<i>Before he shut himself in for the night,
he searched his rooms.</i>

348
00:22:51,793 --> 00:22:54,230
<i>- [Rizzo] Okay, that does it.
- [Dickens] Pardon?</i>

349
00:22:54,300 --> 00:22:56,565
How do you know
what Scrooge is doing?

350
00:22:56,637 --> 00:22:58,834
We're down here and he's up there.

351
00:22:58,909 --> 00:23:02,678
I keep telling you, storytellers
are omniscient. I know everything.

352
00:23:02,750 --> 00:23:05,651
Hoity-toity, Mr. Godlike Smarty-Pants.

353
00:23:08,026 --> 00:23:11,987
To conduct a proper search,
Scrooge was forced to light the lamps.

354
00:23:13,736 --> 00:23:15,466
How does he do that?

355
00:23:48,767 --> 00:23:50,325
Agh!

356
00:23:58,351 --> 00:23:59,649
Oh.

357
00:24:00,789 --> 00:24:03,123
It's my best dressing gown.

358
00:24:06,501 --> 00:24:08,596
No harm done.

359
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,740
Look, it's Ebenezer Scrooge.

360
00:25:24,815 --> 00:25:27,546
Looking older and more wicked
than ever.

361
00:25:27,617 --> 00:25:29,679
I knew he wouldn't disappoint us.

362
00:25:34,532 --> 00:25:35,625
Who are you?

363
00:25:35,701 --> 00:25:37,669
In life, we were your partners,

364
00:25:37,737 --> 00:25:41,005
- Jacob...
- And Robert Marley.

365
00:25:41,076 --> 00:25:43,207
It looks like you.

366
00:25:43,283 --> 00:25:47,220
- But I don't believe it.
- Why do you doubt your senses?

367
00:25:47,288 --> 00:25:50,418
Because a little thing
can affect them.

368
00:25:50,494 --> 00:25:53,990
A slight disorder of the stomach
can make them cheat.

369
00:25:54,070 --> 00:25:57,940
You may be a bit of undigested beef.
A blob of mustard.

370
00:25:58,009 --> 00:25:59,806
A crumb of cheese.

371
00:25:59,879 --> 00:26:03,512
Yes, there's more of gravy
than of grave about you.

372
00:26:06,191 --> 00:26:08,321
More of gravy than of grave?

373
00:26:08,395 --> 00:26:11,424
What a terrible pun.
Where do you get those jokes?

374
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:13,664
Leave comedy to the bears, Ebenezer.

375
00:26:15,708 --> 00:26:19,671
Please, Jacob, Robert,
don't criticize me.

376
00:26:19,750 --> 00:26:21,515
You always criticized me.

377
00:26:21,586 --> 00:26:23,420
We were always heckling you.

378
00:26:23,490 --> 00:26:25,423
It's good to be heckling again.

379
00:26:25,492 --> 00:26:27,656
It's good to be doing anything again.

380
00:26:29,702 --> 00:26:31,399
Why do you come to me?

381
00:26:31,472 --> 00:26:36,379
<i>We're Marley and Marley
Avarice and greed</i>

382
00:26:36,448 --> 00:26:41,185
<i>We took advantage of the poor,
just ignored the need-y</i>

383
00:26:41,258 --> 00:26:45,662
<i>We specialized in causing pain,
spreading fear and doubt</i>

384
00:26:45,730 --> 00:26:50,034
<i>And if you could not pay the rent,
we simply threw you out</i>

385
00:26:51,442 --> 00:26:54,470
There was the year
we evicted the entire orphanage.

386
00:26:54,547 --> 00:26:58,750
I remember the little tykes
all standing in the snowbank.

387
00:26:58,822 --> 00:27:01,658
With their little
frostbitten teddy bears.

388
00:27:05,368 --> 00:27:09,776
<i>We're Marley and Marley
Our hearts were painted black</i>

389
00:27:09,841 --> 00:27:12,439
<i>We should have known our evil deeds</i>

390
00:27:12,514 --> 00:27:15,111
<i>Would put us both in shack-les</i>

391
00:27:15,186 --> 00:27:19,454
<i>Captive, bound, we're double-ironed,
exhausted by the weight</i>

392
00:27:19,526 --> 00:27:22,020
<i>As freedom comes from giving love</i>

393
00:27:22,099 --> 00:27:24,431
<i>So prison comes with hate</i>

394
00:27:24,502 --> 00:27:26,633
<i>We're Marley and Marley</i>

395
00:27:29,614 --> 00:27:31,606
<i>We're Marley and Marley</i>

396
00:27:33,453 --> 00:27:36,858
But my friends, you were not unfeeling
towards your fellow men.

397
00:27:36,927 --> 00:27:40,196
True, there was something
about mankind we loved.

398
00:27:40,268 --> 00:27:42,032
I think it was their money.

399
00:27:44,274 --> 00:27:48,577
<i>Doomed, Scrooge
You're doomed for all time</i>

400
00:27:48,648 --> 00:27:53,385
<i>Your future is a horror story
Written by your crime</i>

401
00:27:53,457 --> 00:27:58,228
<i>Your chains are forged
by what you say and do</i>

402
00:27:58,299 --> 00:28:00,897
<i>So have your fun
When life is done</i>

403
00:28:00,972 --> 00:28:02,804
<i>A nightmare waits for you</i>

404
00:28:04,212 --> 00:28:06,147
Why these terrible chains?

405
00:28:06,215 --> 00:28:08,914
The chains.

406
00:28:08,987 --> 00:28:13,016
We forged these chains in life
by our acts of greed.

407
00:28:13,093 --> 00:28:15,224
You wear such a chain yourself.

408
00:28:15,299 --> 00:28:18,063
Humbug. Speak comfort to me, friends.

409
00:28:18,138 --> 00:28:19,607
Comfort!

410
00:28:21,543 --> 00:28:24,345
You will be haunted by three spirits.

411
00:28:24,416 --> 00:28:26,680
Haunted?
I've already had enough of that.

412
00:28:26,753 --> 00:28:30,955
Without these visits, you cannot hope
to avoid the path we tread.

413
00:28:31,027 --> 00:28:34,523
Expect the first ghost tonight,
when the bell tolls one.

414
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,968
Can't I meet them all at once
and get it over with?

415
00:28:37,037 --> 00:28:40,169
When the bell tolls one!

416
00:28:40,244 --> 00:28:42,238
<i>We're Marley and Marley</i>

417
00:28:44,854 --> 00:28:47,119
<i>We're Marley and Marley</i>

418
00:28:49,528 --> 00:28:52,056
<i>We're Marley and Marley</i>

419
00:28:55,441 --> 00:28:56,967
Change!

420
00:29:08,331 --> 00:29:12,499
And with that, the spirits of Scrooge's
partners vanished into the darkness,

421
00:29:12,572 --> 00:29:17,377
leaving him once again
alone in his room.

422
00:29:17,447 --> 00:29:21,548
That's scary stuff. Should we be worried
about the kids in the audience?

423
00:29:21,623 --> 00:29:24,057
No, it's all right. This is culture.

424
00:29:24,126 --> 00:29:27,064
Jelly bean? I had them
in my pocket all along.

425
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:29,592
What?

426
00:29:41,994 --> 00:29:43,326
Humbug.

427
00:29:44,464 --> 00:29:46,263
Come on.

428
00:29:46,335 --> 00:29:47,963
But I really hate this.

429
00:29:48,038 --> 00:29:50,007
You wanted to know
what was happening.

430
00:29:50,074 --> 00:29:53,514
Scrooge's bedchamber
is on this side of the house. Jump.

431
00:29:53,581 --> 00:29:56,211
There's only two things
in this life I hate.

432
00:29:56,287 --> 00:29:58,518
Heights, and jumping from them.

433
00:29:58,590 --> 00:30:00,823
Too late now.
Come on, I'll catch you.

434
00:30:02,731 --> 00:30:05,067
God save my little broken body.

435
00:30:11,616 --> 00:30:13,480
Missed.

436
00:30:13,552 --> 00:30:16,251
Wait a second.
I forgot my jelly beans.

437
00:30:16,325 --> 00:30:17,384
Um...

438
00:30:25,241 --> 00:30:26,335
What?

439
00:30:26,411 --> 00:30:28,242
You can fit through those bars?

440
00:30:28,314 --> 00:30:29,839
Yeah.

441
00:30:29,916 --> 00:30:31,317
You are such an idiot.

442
00:30:31,386 --> 00:30:33,321
What, what? Hey, what?

443
00:30:33,890 --> 00:30:35,121
What?

444
00:30:35,193 --> 00:30:36,718
What?

445
00:30:50,588 --> 00:30:52,181
Oh, dear.

446
00:30:52,258 --> 00:30:56,632
Scrooge slipped into the empty silence
of a dreamless sleep.

447
00:30:56,699 --> 00:31:00,160
You know, a guy could break his tail
falling out of this tree.

448
00:31:00,239 --> 00:31:02,232
Want to see what's going on, don't you?

449
00:31:02,310 --> 00:31:04,440
- Yes.
- There's Scrooge's window.

450
00:31:04,515 --> 00:31:06,313
Oh, yeah.

451
00:31:25,488 --> 00:31:30,555
Expect the first ghost
when the bell tolls one!

452
00:31:33,369 --> 00:31:35,100
Wow! Ouch.

453
00:31:56,579 --> 00:31:59,879
Are you the spirit
whose coming was foretold to me?

454
00:31:59,950 --> 00:32:01,179
I am.

455
00:32:01,252 --> 00:32:05,751
But... you're just a child.

456
00:32:05,828 --> 00:32:08,993
I can remember nearly 1,900 years.

457
00:32:09,066 --> 00:32:12,235
I am the Ghost of Christmas Past.

458
00:32:12,309 --> 00:32:14,071
What business has brought you here?

459
00:32:14,144 --> 00:32:16,843
- Your welfare.
- Huh.

460
00:32:16,916 --> 00:32:19,581
A night's unbroken rest
might aid my welfare.

461
00:32:19,654 --> 00:32:21,851
Your salvation, then.

462
00:32:21,927 --> 00:32:24,623
Take heed. Come.

463
00:32:29,505 --> 00:32:33,410
I beg you, spirit, I am mortal.
I'm liable to fall.

464
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,815
A touch of my hand, and you shall fly.

465
00:32:44,734 --> 00:32:46,727
- What are we doing?
- Nothing.

466
00:32:46,804 --> 00:32:48,433
- What?
- Just hold on.

467
00:32:53,116 --> 00:32:55,679
- Watch out, Rizzo.
- What? Oh!

468
00:32:55,755 --> 00:32:58,784
Whee!

469
00:32:59,461 --> 00:33:01,260
Hello, London!

470
00:33:01,333 --> 00:33:03,359
Goodbye, lunch!

471
00:33:04,506 --> 00:33:07,067
Spirit?

472
00:33:07,845 --> 00:33:08,971
Yes?

473
00:33:09,047 --> 00:33:10,745
Nothing.

474
00:33:12,552 --> 00:33:14,853
- Look, Rizzo.
- I don't want to look.

475
00:33:14,924 --> 00:33:17,724
Spirit? What is that light?

476
00:33:19,300 --> 00:33:21,166
It cannot be dawn.

477
00:33:21,235 --> 00:33:23,534
It is the past.

478
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,311
Look, it's beautiful, Rizzo.

479
00:33:29,386 --> 00:33:31,685
Mommy!

480
00:33:38,838 --> 00:33:40,829
Hey, we're going down.

481
00:33:41,441 --> 00:33:43,878
Hang on, Rizzo.

482
00:33:43,947 --> 00:33:46,644
[Dickens] Sorry, madam.

483
00:33:46,717 --> 00:33:48,654
[Rizzo] Pardon me, sir.

484
00:33:48,722 --> 00:33:50,553
Look out, Rizzo.

485
00:33:53,665 --> 00:33:55,759
Rizzo, this is Louise.

486
00:33:55,834 --> 00:33:57,828
Yeah, we've met.

487
00:34:07,022 --> 00:34:11,621
And so they arrived
in Ebenezer Scrooge's childhood.

488
00:34:11,696 --> 00:34:14,100
That was the worst trip of my life.

489
00:34:14,169 --> 00:34:15,534
It's over now.

490
00:34:15,604 --> 00:34:18,667
Yeah, safe at last.

491
00:34:19,513 --> 00:34:20,501
No.

492
00:34:21,214 --> 00:34:23,686
No. No! Oh, no!

493
00:34:23,755 --> 00:34:25,153
Nice kitty, nice kitty.

494
00:34:25,223 --> 00:34:27,251
Ow! I'm from New Jersey.

495
00:34:30,064 --> 00:34:32,560
It was the afternoon of Christmas Eve,

496
00:34:32,637 --> 00:34:35,937
and Scrooge was conscious
of a thousand odors.

497
00:34:36,009 --> 00:34:41,109
Each one connected with a thousand
thoughts, hopes, joys and cares,

498
00:34:41,185 --> 00:34:43,349
long, long forgotten.

499
00:34:45,528 --> 00:34:47,520
It's my old school.

500
00:34:48,466 --> 00:34:50,094
I was a boy here.

501
00:34:51,105 --> 00:34:53,734
That's Henry.

502
00:34:53,809 --> 00:34:56,076
And Edmund, my best friend.

503
00:34:56,147 --> 00:34:58,775
Hello, boys. Hello.

504
00:34:58,851 --> 00:35:01,619
These are but shadows
of your past, Ebenezer.

505
00:35:01,691 --> 00:35:04,320
They can neither see nor hear you.

506
00:35:04,395 --> 00:35:06,730
Come, let us go inside.

507
00:35:09,103 --> 00:35:11,098
Rizzo, stop playing with the cat.

508
00:35:11,175 --> 00:35:13,871
Save me, save me!

509
00:35:32,481 --> 00:35:35,920
And what a flood of memories
came back to him,

510
00:35:35,988 --> 00:35:39,118
as Scrooge beheld his old classroom.

511
00:35:40,163 --> 00:35:42,290
I know it all so well, spirit.

512
00:35:43,267 --> 00:35:44,999
The desks.

513
00:35:46,207 --> 00:35:48,267
The smell of the chalk.

514
00:35:50,683 --> 00:35:52,877
I chose my profession in this room.

515
00:35:52,953 --> 00:35:55,686
And is he, too, familiar?

516
00:35:58,663 --> 00:36:02,329
Scrooge beheld a small boy,
a boy he knew,

517
00:36:02,403 --> 00:36:04,874
oh, very well indeed.

518
00:36:07,814 --> 00:36:10,410
Good heavens.

519
00:36:10,486 --> 00:36:12,045
It's me.

520
00:36:12,123 --> 00:36:14,559
Come Ebenezer,
the last coach is leaving.

521
00:36:14,627 --> 00:36:16,926
Come on,
he never goes home for Christmas.

522
00:36:16,998 --> 00:36:19,333
Who cares about stupid old Christmas?

523
00:36:21,305 --> 00:36:23,469
I was often alone.

524
00:36:24,679 --> 00:36:28,312
More time for reading... and study.

525
00:36:28,386 --> 00:36:32,324
The Christmas holiday was a chance
to get some extra work done.

526
00:36:33,463 --> 00:36:36,228
A time for... solitude.

527
00:36:39,373 --> 00:36:41,739
Rats don't understand these things.

528
00:36:41,810 --> 00:36:43,941
You were never a lonely child?

529
00:36:44,015 --> 00:36:47,453
I had 1,274 brothers and sisters.

530
00:36:47,521 --> 00:36:51,517
Sheesh.
Rats don't understand these things.

531
00:36:51,595 --> 00:36:55,126
Let us see another Christmas
in this place.

532
00:36:55,202 --> 00:36:57,366
They were all very much the same.

533
00:36:59,811 --> 00:37:01,574
Nothing ever changed.

534
00:37:01,647 --> 00:37:03,743
You changed.

535
00:37:24,558 --> 00:37:27,256
The years performed
their terrible dance.

536
00:37:27,331 --> 00:37:31,498
And in a moment, Scrooge had seen
his entire childhood pass.

537
00:37:31,573 --> 00:37:35,737
He saw his old school room
age and decay.

538
00:37:35,809 --> 00:37:37,644
What the... Hey!

539
00:37:37,714 --> 00:37:38,704
Agh!

540
00:37:38,783 --> 00:37:42,655
So, Master Scrooge, graduation day!

541
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,926
That's my old headmaster.

542
00:37:46,998 --> 00:37:49,194
This man taught me my greatest lesson.

543
00:37:49,270 --> 00:37:52,730
Stand up. Build your life
as this school was built.

544
00:37:52,809 --> 00:37:53,868
Push!

545
00:37:53,944 --> 00:37:55,938
My ear, my ear, my ear.

546
00:37:57,953 --> 00:38:03,054
Yes, work hard, work long,
and be constructive.

547
00:38:03,128 --> 00:38:06,066
Ebenezer, life is a golden opportunity.

548
00:38:06,134 --> 00:38:09,072
Today you go forth into the real world.

549
00:38:09,140 --> 00:38:12,043
You must keep your nose
to the grindstone.

550
00:38:12,113 --> 00:38:14,378
Work hard, lad. And one day,

551
00:38:14,450 --> 00:38:17,445
your life will be as solid
as this very building.

552
00:38:19,393 --> 00:38:21,954
Hmm. I've been meaning
to fix that shelf.

553
00:38:22,031 --> 00:38:23,260
Yes, headmaster.

554
00:38:23,333 --> 00:38:28,401
Young man, you have been apprenticed
to a fine company in London.

555
00:38:28,476 --> 00:38:32,439
Today, you become a man of business.

556
00:38:32,517 --> 00:38:34,511
I'm looking forward to it, headmaster.

557
00:38:34,588 --> 00:38:37,024
You will love business.

558
00:38:37,093 --> 00:38:39,359
It is the American way.

559
00:38:39,432 --> 00:38:40,421
Sam?

560
00:38:40,500 --> 00:38:42,969
Mmm?

561
00:38:43,937 --> 00:38:46,604
Oh. It is the British way.

562
00:38:46,678 --> 00:38:47,666
Good.

563
00:38:47,745 --> 00:38:49,613
Yes, headmaster.

564
00:38:53,556 --> 00:38:55,892
Oh, here is your coach, Ebenezer.

565
00:38:55,961 --> 00:38:59,298
Come, Scrooge, there is much to see.

566
00:39:01,004 --> 00:39:02,996
Remember, don't tip the driver.

567
00:39:11,589 --> 00:39:15,691
A moment later, Scrooge found himself
standing on a city street,

568
00:39:15,766 --> 00:39:19,865
looking at a building
he had not seen in years.

569
00:39:19,941 --> 00:39:23,106
Tell me, Ebenezer Scrooge,
do you know this place?

570
00:39:23,179 --> 00:39:26,673
Know it? My first job was here.

571
00:39:26,752 --> 00:39:29,417
This is Fozziwig's
old rubber chicken factory.

572
00:39:29,492 --> 00:39:31,289
Once again, it was Christmas Eve,

573
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:36,428
night was falling, and the lamplighters
were plying their trade.

574
00:39:36,505 --> 00:39:39,965
Hey, light the lamp, not the rat.
Light the lamp, not the rat!

575
00:39:40,043 --> 00:39:41,807
- My apologies.
- What are you doing?

576
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,114
Put me out, put me out!

577
00:39:44,185 --> 00:39:46,620
- Rizzo!
- What?

578
00:39:50,061 --> 00:39:53,263
Oh, oh, Th-th-th-thank you.

579
00:39:53,336 --> 00:39:55,066
You're welcome.

580
00:39:57,445 --> 00:40:00,176
There he is, old Fozziwig himself.

581
00:40:00,247 --> 00:40:03,914
Look my lads, dusk has fallen,
and the lamplighters are at work.

582
00:40:03,989 --> 00:40:06,219
It's Christmas Eve for certain.

583
00:40:06,293 --> 00:40:08,263
What an employer he was.

584
00:40:08,330 --> 00:40:11,701
As hard and as ruthless
as a rose petal.

585
00:40:11,772 --> 00:40:14,036
It's time for the party to begin.

586
00:40:14,107 --> 00:40:16,738
It's the Fozziwig Christmas party.

587
00:40:16,813 --> 00:40:18,508
Rizzo, come on.

588
00:40:19,484 --> 00:40:21,750
Rizzo, just grab hold of the stick.

589
00:40:21,822 --> 00:40:24,085
Merry Christmas.

590
00:40:24,158 --> 00:40:26,154
Thank you, thank you.

591
00:40:27,633 --> 00:40:30,432
Excuse me, everyone.
Can we have some quiet, please?

592
00:40:33,376 --> 00:40:34,638
Whoa!

593
00:40:40,857 --> 00:40:43,555
I suppose I should be grateful for that.

594
00:40:43,628 --> 00:40:45,496
You're welcome.

595
00:40:45,566 --> 00:40:48,766
Everyone, please,
can I have your attention for a moment?

596
00:40:49,907 --> 00:40:53,141
Look, it's the Marley brothers.

597
00:40:53,214 --> 00:40:55,343
My old partners, as they were as lads.

598
00:40:55,418 --> 00:40:57,785
Can I have your attention, please?

599
00:41:01,497 --> 00:41:03,362
Quiet!

600
00:41:05,437 --> 00:41:06,803
Thank you.

601
00:41:06,871 --> 00:41:08,501
That's better.

602
00:41:08,577 --> 00:41:11,878
Welcome to Fozziwig and Mom's
annual Christmas party.

603
00:41:11,949 --> 00:41:13,814
At this time in the proceedings,

604
00:41:13,885 --> 00:41:16,720
it is a tradition
for me to make a little speech.

605
00:41:16,792 --> 00:41:19,524
And it's a tradition for us
to take a little nap.

606
00:41:21,934 --> 00:41:24,061
Uh, pay no attention to them.

607
00:41:24,138 --> 00:41:27,167
My speech,
here is my Christmas speech.

608
00:41:27,244 --> 00:41:30,808
"Thank you all
and merry Christmas."

609
00:41:30,884 --> 00:41:32,977
- That was the speech?
- That was dumb.

610
00:41:33,054 --> 00:41:34,784
- It was obvious.
- It was pointless.

611
00:41:34,858 --> 00:41:37,020
It was short.

612
00:41:39,700 --> 00:41:43,970
I'm bored with speeches.
Let's dance, Son!

613
00:41:44,042 --> 00:41:46,512
Here's Mrs. Fozziwig to start the party.

614
00:41:46,580 --> 00:41:49,109
- Way to go, Ma!
- Hit it, boys!

615
00:41:53,091 --> 00:41:54,218
Hello.

616
00:41:55,831 --> 00:41:58,597
Look, there's a buffet over here.
I'm kind of hungry.

617
00:42:02,241 --> 00:42:06,809
<i>Fa-la la-la la
La-la la la</i>

618
00:42:06,884 --> 00:42:10,823
Forget it. Mother always taught me,
never eat singing food.

619
00:42:13,197 --> 00:42:15,633
A pleasure having you here.

620
00:42:15,702 --> 00:42:18,298
I'm very pleased,
and please enjoy yourself.

621
00:42:18,374 --> 00:42:20,899
Excuse me, Mr. Fozziwig?

622
00:42:20,976 --> 00:42:23,040
Sir, I've been going over the accounts.

623
00:42:23,117 --> 00:42:26,143
Do you know how much the firm
is spending for this party?

624
00:42:26,221 --> 00:42:29,522
Master Scrooge, this is Christmas.

625
00:42:29,593 --> 00:42:31,687
It's a time for generosity.

626
00:42:31,763 --> 00:42:37,266
Stop working, enjoy yourself.
Go meet some people, go ahead.

627
00:42:37,342 --> 00:42:38,468
Hello.

628
00:42:52,605 --> 00:42:54,539
You dancing fool!

629
00:43:01,821 --> 00:43:04,223
I love these annual Christmas parties.

630
00:43:04,292 --> 00:43:06,728
I love them so much,
I think we'll do it twice a year.

631
00:43:06,797 --> 00:43:08,095
Excuse me.

632
00:43:08,166 --> 00:43:10,968
- [Fozziwig] Master Scrooge.
- Excuse me.

633
00:43:11,037 --> 00:43:14,099
Belle, I'd like to introduce you
to Ebenezer Scrooge,

634
00:43:14,177 --> 00:43:16,579
the finest young financial mind
in the city.

635
00:43:16,648 --> 00:43:19,049
Ebenezer, this is Belle,

636
00:43:19,119 --> 00:43:21,112
a friend of the Fozziwig family.

637
00:43:21,191 --> 00:43:23,182
I'm pleased to meet you.

638
00:43:24,729 --> 00:43:27,963
Well, I'm glad you two finally met.

639
00:43:28,035 --> 00:43:30,406
Do you remember this meeting?

640
00:43:31,743 --> 00:43:33,472
Remember?

641
00:43:35,584 --> 00:43:36,574
Yes.

642
00:43:37,386 --> 00:43:39,412
I remember.

643
00:43:39,489 --> 00:43:43,554
There was, of course, another
Christmas Eve with this young woman,

644
00:43:43,632 --> 00:43:45,966
some years later.

645
00:43:46,035 --> 00:43:50,239
Oh, please,
do not show me that Christmas.

646
00:44:11,217 --> 00:44:13,880
Another year
before our wedding, Ebenezer.

647
00:44:13,957 --> 00:44:16,016
It can't be helped, Belle.

648
00:44:17,194 --> 00:44:21,327
How could we marry now? There's
not even enough for a decent home.

649
00:44:21,402 --> 00:44:23,669
The investments haven't grown
as they should.

650
00:44:23,740 --> 00:44:25,733
So you said last year.

651
00:44:26,312 --> 00:44:28,510
Business continues to be poor.

652
00:44:30,218 --> 00:44:32,882
You're a partner in your own firm now.

653
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,358
Barely clearing expenses.

654
00:44:36,431 --> 00:44:39,835
- You said the partnership was the goal.
- This is for you.

655
00:44:41,206 --> 00:44:43,699
I love you, Belle.

656
00:44:45,348 --> 00:44:47,647
You did, once.

657
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:57,529
Oh, Rizzo.

658
00:45:02,176 --> 00:45:04,148
Spirit, show me no more.

659
00:45:05,118 --> 00:45:07,487
Why do you delight in torturing me?

660
00:45:07,556 --> 00:45:12,085
I told you, these are the shadows
of the things that have been.

661
00:45:12,165 --> 00:45:15,864
That they are what they are,
do not blame me.

662
00:45:15,937 --> 00:45:17,930
Leave me.

663
00:45:39,247 --> 00:45:43,517
Scrooge was left alone and exhausted
in his bedchamber.

664
00:45:43,590 --> 00:45:48,553
And thus he remained, until the
nearby clock began to strike the hour.

665
00:45:49,233 --> 00:45:50,667
Oh.

666
00:45:50,734 --> 00:45:53,765
- Oh. Oh, what was that?
- Two o'clock.

667
00:45:53,842 --> 00:45:56,278
- Is it too early for breakfast?
- Yes.

668
00:45:56,347 --> 00:45:58,782
Oh, good, supper time.

669
00:46:03,793 --> 00:46:07,756
Scrooge knew
the second of the ghosts was due.

670
00:46:07,833 --> 00:46:11,069
Yet now,
as the clock finished striking...

671
00:46:12,644 --> 00:46:14,168
Nothing.

672
00:46:17,085 --> 00:46:20,022
Come in, and know me better, man.

673
00:46:34,652 --> 00:46:37,383
Come in, and know me better, man.

674
00:46:37,456 --> 00:46:40,257
- Did I already say that?
- You did.

675
00:46:40,329 --> 00:46:43,128
I am the Ghost of Christmas Present.

676
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:47,608
This is the night before the dawn
before the day of Christmas.

677
00:46:47,675 --> 00:46:51,616
Did I tell you that I am
the Ghost of Christmas Present?

678
00:46:51,683 --> 00:46:56,454
- You did.
- Come in, know me better, man.

679
00:46:56,525 --> 00:46:58,687
You're a little absent-minded, spirit.

680
00:46:58,761 --> 00:47:03,202
No, I'm a large
absent-minded spirit. [chuckles]

681
00:47:04,541 --> 00:47:07,479
My mind is filled
with the here and now.

682
00:47:07,545 --> 00:47:11,383
And the now is Christmas. [laughs]

683
00:47:11,453 --> 00:47:15,187
I don't believe I've
ever met anybody like you before, sir.

684
00:47:15,260 --> 00:47:19,600
Really? Over 1,800 of my brothers
have come before me.

685
00:47:19,669 --> 00:47:23,003
1,800? Lmagine the grocery bills.

686
00:47:28,486 --> 00:47:32,788
Have you ever noticed that everything
seems wonderful at Christmas?

687
00:47:34,363 --> 00:47:39,168
Uh, in all honesty, spirit, no.

688
00:47:40,641 --> 00:47:43,578
Perhaps I've never understood
about Christmas.

689
00:47:43,648 --> 00:47:47,678
Before this day is done,
you will understand.

690
00:47:47,756 --> 00:47:49,724
Oh. [laughs]

691
00:47:49,792 --> 00:47:51,623
Oh, no! Oh, no!

692
00:47:54,001 --> 00:47:57,269
We shall go out into the world.

693
00:48:00,143 --> 00:48:02,548
I suppose you enjoyed that?

694
00:48:02,616 --> 00:48:04,140
Of course.

695
00:48:09,227 --> 00:48:13,795
May I welcome you
to Christmas morning?

696
00:48:23,389 --> 00:48:26,328
<i>It's in the singing
of a street corner choir</i>

697
00:48:26,394 --> 00:48:28,990
<i>It's going home
and getting warm by the fire</i>

698
00:48:29,065 --> 00:48:32,162
<i>It's true wherever you find love</i>

699
00:48:32,240 --> 00:48:34,731
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

700
00:48:34,809 --> 00:48:37,508
<i>A cup of kindness
that we share with another</i>

701
00:48:37,580 --> 00:48:40,312
<i>A sweet reunion
with a friend or a brother</i>

702
00:48:40,386 --> 00:48:43,414
<i>In all the places you find love</i>

703
00:48:43,491 --> 00:48:46,362
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

704
00:48:46,431 --> 00:48:50,872
<i>It is the season of the heart</i>

705
00:48:50,940 --> 00:48:53,807
<i>A special time of caring</i>

706
00:48:53,876 --> 00:48:57,611
<i>The ways of love made clear</i>

707
00:48:57,684 --> 00:49:02,490
<i>And it is the season of the spirit</i>

708
00:49:02,561 --> 00:49:05,192
<i>The message if we hear it</i>

709
00:49:05,266 --> 00:49:09,102
<i>Is make it last all year</i>

710
00:49:14,415 --> 00:49:17,182
<i>It's in the giving of a gift
to another</i>

711
00:49:17,254 --> 00:49:20,056
<i>A pair of mittens
that were made by your mother</i>

712
00:49:20,127 --> 00:49:23,222
<i>It's all the ways that we show love</i>

713
00:49:23,298 --> 00:49:25,734
<i>That feel like Christmas</i>

714
00:49:25,804 --> 00:49:28,434
<i>A part of childhood
we'll always remember</i>

715
00:49:28,509 --> 00:49:31,209
<i>It is the summer
of the soul in December</i>

716
00:49:31,281 --> 00:49:34,481
<i>Yes, when you do your best for love</i>

717
00:49:34,554 --> 00:49:37,754
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

718
00:49:37,827 --> 00:49:41,857
<i>It is the season of the heart</i>

719
00:49:41,933 --> 00:49:44,839
<i>A special time of caring</i>

720
00:49:44,907 --> 00:49:49,008
<i>The ways of love made clear</i>

721
00:49:49,081 --> 00:49:53,042
<i>It is the season of the spirit</i>

722
00:49:53,121 --> 00:49:55,958
<i>The message, if we hear it</i>

723
00:49:56,027 --> 00:49:59,899
<i>Is make it last all year</i>

724
00:50:05,177 --> 00:50:08,080
<i>It's in the singing
of a street corner choir</i>

725
00:50:08,151 --> 00:50:10,882
<i>It's going home
and getting warm by the fire</i>

726
00:50:10,955 --> 00:50:14,155
<i>It's true wherever you find love</i>

727
00:50:14,227 --> 00:50:16,560
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

728
00:50:16,632 --> 00:50:23,373
<i>It's true wherever you find love</i>

729
00:50:23,445 --> 00:50:27,475
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

730
00:50:30,890 --> 00:50:36,199
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

731
00:50:36,268 --> 00:50:40,674
It feels like Christmas!

732
00:50:42,347 --> 00:50:49,122
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

733
00:50:52,232 --> 00:50:53,929
Spirit, I had no idea.

734
00:50:54,002 --> 00:50:58,034
I wish to see friends, kin.
Show me family.

735
00:51:00,213 --> 00:51:04,176
It's Fred. My dear nephew Fred
and his wife, Clara.

736
00:51:04,256 --> 00:51:06,189
Having Christmas with friends.

737
00:51:07,228 --> 00:51:08,718
Hey, look. Fruit.

738
00:51:08,796 --> 00:51:11,895
Well, now, we've had the plum pudding
and sung the carols.

739
00:51:11,971 --> 00:51:13,961
- What now, my lovelies?
- A game, Fred.

740
00:51:14,041 --> 00:51:16,204
Yeah, we must have a game at Christmas.

741
00:51:16,278 --> 00:51:19,771
- Do people play games at Christmas?
- I love games.

742
00:51:19,850 --> 00:51:22,516
Say, do you know that fruit is wax?

743
00:51:22,590 --> 00:51:26,030
Oh, yeah,
I wondered about the texture. Yeuch!

744
00:51:26,097 --> 00:51:29,225
- Let's play "Yes and No."
- Oh, wonderful game.

745
00:51:29,300 --> 00:51:32,364
Yah! That's a great game. I'll be it.

746
00:51:32,441 --> 00:51:35,205
Yes, let Fred be it.
He always thinks of good things.

747
00:51:35,277 --> 00:51:37,680
I do have a good one, Clara. Guess.

748
00:51:37,750 --> 00:51:39,743
Is it vegetable?

749
00:51:39,820 --> 00:51:41,347
- [Fred] No.
- [Clara] Mineral?

750
00:51:41,424 --> 00:51:42,824
- No.
- Animal, then?

751
00:51:42,893 --> 00:51:44,794
- What else?
- What else, indeed.

752
00:51:44,863 --> 00:51:47,096
- Is it found on a farm?
- Never.

753
00:51:47,167 --> 00:51:48,863
- In the city?
- Usually.

754
00:51:48,936 --> 00:51:51,170
Does it pull a hansom cab?

755
00:51:51,242 --> 00:51:52,768
Certainly not.

756
00:51:52,844 --> 00:51:54,575
How about a dog?

757
00:51:54,648 --> 00:51:55,639
No.

758
00:51:55,717 --> 00:51:56,844
- A cat?
- A cat?

759
00:51:56,919 --> 00:52:00,257
- I said it first.
- No.

760
00:52:00,326 --> 00:52:02,887
Wait, is this an unwanted creature?

761
00:52:02,964 --> 00:52:05,161
- Often.
- A mouse?

762
00:52:05,235 --> 00:52:06,463
- No.
- A rat?

763
00:52:06,537 --> 00:52:08,632
- You called?
- A cockroach.

764
00:52:08,708 --> 00:52:09,699
No.

765
00:52:09,778 --> 00:52:11,302
- A leech?
- It's too wonderful.

766
00:52:11,379 --> 00:52:14,375
Wait, I know.
An unwanted creature,

767
00:52:14,452 --> 00:52:16,920
but not a rat, a leech,
or a cockroach?

768
00:52:16,989 --> 00:52:18,049
Then what?

769
00:52:18,126 --> 00:52:20,460
- What?
- It's Ebenezer Scrooge.

770
00:52:20,531 --> 00:52:21,520
Yes.

771
00:52:21,599 --> 00:52:23,864
Wonderful.

772
00:52:24,939 --> 00:52:27,636
That's a killer.

773
00:52:34,889 --> 00:52:37,862
Come, there is much to see.

774
00:52:37,929 --> 00:52:40,902
No more. I wish to see no more.

775
00:52:45,745 --> 00:52:47,713
Here.

776
00:52:47,780 --> 00:52:50,081
Why have we come
to this odd corner of the town?

777
00:52:50,152 --> 00:52:52,815
It's Christmas here, too, you know.

778
00:52:52,891 --> 00:52:55,590
That's Bob Cratchit's house.

779
00:52:55,663 --> 00:52:58,396
Perhaps it was the spirit's
own generous nature,

780
00:52:58,469 --> 00:53:00,596
and his sympathy for all poor men,

781
00:53:00,672 --> 00:53:04,942
that led them straight to the home
of Scrooge's faithful clerk.

782
00:53:06,883 --> 00:53:09,582
Goose. They're cooking goose down there.

783
00:53:11,158 --> 00:53:13,788
Rizzo, get out of the way.

784
00:53:13,864 --> 00:53:16,060
Hey, don't be sweeping
the chimney now.

785
00:53:16,135 --> 00:53:18,162
You're blocking the smell. [sniffs]

786
00:53:19,372 --> 00:53:22,778
- This is Bob Cratchit's house?
- How do you know that?

787
00:53:22,846 --> 00:53:24,941
You just told me.

788
00:53:25,017 --> 00:53:27,990
Hmm. Well, I'm usually trustworthy.

789
00:53:32,265 --> 00:53:35,236
- Who's that?
- Mrs. Cratchit, of course.

790
00:53:38,443 --> 00:53:40,002
Ahh!

791
00:53:42,519 --> 00:53:45,578
Peter, do not stop turning that spit.

792
00:53:45,656 --> 00:53:48,855
That is the whole secret
of a properly roasted goose.

793
00:53:48,929 --> 00:53:53,337
- It smells so good, Mother.
- It does, doesn't it?

794
00:53:53,404 --> 00:53:56,673
Oh. That smells wonderful.

795
00:53:57,779 --> 00:53:59,213
Oh, good grief.

796
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,412
Hey, I'm stuck, get me out of here.

797
00:54:01,488 --> 00:54:03,616
I knew you weren't suited
for literature.

798
00:54:07,898 --> 00:54:10,333
Oh, at least I landed
on something soft.

799
00:54:10,402 --> 00:54:12,465
And hot! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

800
00:54:12,540 --> 00:54:14,839
Hot, hot, hot!

801
00:54:15,679 --> 00:54:17,841
Mother, Mother, Mother!

802
00:54:17,916 --> 00:54:23,016
You said we couldn't eat the chestnuts
until Father and Tiny Tim get home.

803
00:54:23,092 --> 00:54:25,185
I wasn't eating them,

804
00:54:25,264 --> 00:54:28,860
I was merely checking them
to see if they were not burnt.

805
00:54:28,935 --> 00:54:31,909
It's a chef's thing, dear.
And do not shout, Betina.

806
00:54:31,975 --> 00:54:35,005
- I'm Belinda.
- I'm Betina.

807
00:54:35,082 --> 00:54:37,449
Of course you are, Betina.

808
00:54:37,518 --> 00:54:39,044
Belinda.

809
00:54:40,193 --> 00:54:41,921
Whatever.

810
00:54:43,230 --> 00:54:45,667
Huh?

811
00:54:51,245 --> 00:54:55,708
<i>'Tis the season
to be jolly and joyous, fa la la</i>

812
00:54:55,787 --> 00:55:00,889
<i>With a burst of pleasure
we feel it arrive, fa la la</i>

813
00:55:00,963 --> 00:55:05,769
<i>It's a season when the saints
can employ us, fa la la</i>

814
00:55:05,838 --> 00:55:09,472
<i>To spread the news about
peace and to keep love alive</i>

815
00:55:13,922 --> 00:55:15,219
Come on, son.

816
00:55:15,290 --> 00:55:17,725
Let's go see if Christmas dinner
is ready yet.

817
00:55:17,793 --> 00:55:19,890
- Oh, yeah.
- Yes.

818
00:55:23,939 --> 00:55:26,239
Merry Christmas, everyone.

819
00:55:26,310 --> 00:55:27,437
Daddy!

820
00:55:30,718 --> 00:55:32,050
Merry Christmas, girls.

821
00:55:32,121 --> 00:55:34,319
- Merry Christmas, Peter.
- Merry Christmas.

822
00:55:34,392 --> 00:55:37,057
Children, children,
it's time to set the table.

823
00:55:37,130 --> 00:55:39,967
- Go ahead.
- Wait for me.

824
00:55:40,038 --> 00:55:43,475
- Merry Christmas, Emily.
- Merry Christmas...

825
00:55:43,543 --> 00:55:44,875
Crachy.

826
00:55:45,646 --> 00:55:46,636
Emmy.

827
00:55:51,023 --> 00:55:55,327
I fell down the chimney
and landed on a flaming hot goose.

828
00:55:55,399 --> 00:55:58,234
You have all the fun.

829
00:55:58,304 --> 00:56:00,330
What?

830
00:56:00,407 --> 00:56:03,038
Peter, the Christmas dinner.

831
00:56:03,113 --> 00:56:05,049
The goose, the goose.

832
00:56:08,522 --> 00:56:12,395
Oh, no, now, son,
you've gotten too excited.

833
00:56:12,464 --> 00:56:16,698
You go sit in your chair a moment.
Rest a moment.

834
00:56:16,771 --> 00:56:20,607
- How was he at church?
- As good as gold and better.

835
00:56:20,678 --> 00:56:22,843
He said he hoped the people
saw him in church

836
00:56:22,917 --> 00:56:26,445
because it might be pleasant for them
to remember upon Christmas Day

837
00:56:26,522 --> 00:56:30,622
who made lame beggars walk
and blind men see.

838
00:56:30,696 --> 00:56:32,691
A remarkable child.

839
00:56:34,172 --> 00:56:37,074
With that,
the Cratchits came to what was surely

840
00:56:37,144 --> 00:56:41,244
the happiest single moment
in all the livelong year.

841
00:56:41,319 --> 00:56:45,121
- Such a meager feast.
- But very much appreciated.

842
00:56:46,995 --> 00:56:49,261
I pay Bob such a small amount.

843
00:56:49,332 --> 00:56:51,828
- Mr. Scrooge.
- Bob.

844
00:56:51,905 --> 00:56:54,000
Bob Cratchit?

845
00:56:54,075 --> 00:56:57,047
It only seems right that
I should lift a glass to my employer.

846
00:56:57,115 --> 00:56:59,914
I give you Mr. Scrooge,
the founder of the feast.

847
00:56:59,985 --> 00:57:03,253
The founder of the feast, indeed. Huh!

848
00:57:03,325 --> 00:57:07,196
If I had him here, I would give him
a piece of my mind to feast upon.

849
00:57:07,264 --> 00:57:09,199
And I bet he would choke on it.

850
00:57:09,268 --> 00:57:11,740
- Choke!
- My dear, the children.

851
00:57:11,808 --> 00:57:13,036
Christmas Day.

852
00:57:13,109 --> 00:57:17,573
Well, I suppose that
on the blessed day of Christmas,

853
00:57:17,651 --> 00:57:21,284
one must drink to the health
of Mr. Scrooge,

854
00:57:21,358 --> 00:57:24,625
even though he is odious,
stingy, wicked,

855
00:57:24,697 --> 00:57:28,500
and unfeeling, and badly dressed...

856
00:57:28,571 --> 00:57:32,032
To the founder of the feast,
Mr. Scrooge.

857
00:57:32,111 --> 00:57:38,386
To Mr. Scrooge, he'll be very merry
and happy this day, I have no doubt.

858
00:57:38,457 --> 00:57:39,449
No doubt.

859
00:57:39,527 --> 00:57:40,825
Mm. Cheers.

860
00:57:42,365 --> 00:57:46,236
God bless us, every one.

861
00:57:48,443 --> 00:57:51,415
<i>Life is full of sweet surprises</i>

862
00:57:51,482 --> 00:57:53,780
<i>Every day's a gift</i>

863
00:57:53,852 --> 00:57:56,721
<i>The sun comes up
And I can feel it</i>

864
00:57:56,790 --> 00:57:59,423
<i>Lift my spirit</i>

865
00:57:59,497 --> 00:58:04,838
<i>Fills me up with laughter
Fills me up with song</i>

866
00:58:04,906 --> 00:58:07,776
<i>I look into the eyes of love</i>

867
00:58:07,846 --> 00:58:11,079
<i>And know that I belong</i>

868
00:58:11,151 --> 00:58:13,816
<i>Bless us all</i>

869
00:58:13,890 --> 00:58:16,656
<i>Who gather here</i>

870
00:58:16,729 --> 00:58:22,228
<i>The loving family I hold dear</i>

871
00:58:22,305 --> 00:58:25,003
<i>No place on Earth</i>

872
00:58:25,077 --> 00:58:27,844
<i>Compares with home</i>

873
00:58:27,918 --> 00:58:33,223
<i>And every path will bring me
back from where I roam</i>

874
00:58:33,996 --> 00:58:36,227
<i>Bless us all</i>

875
00:58:36,299 --> 00:58:38,826
<i>That as we live</i>

876
00:58:38,904 --> 00:58:44,746
<i>We always comfort and forgive</i>

877
00:58:44,814 --> 00:58:47,079
<i>We have so much</i>

878
00:58:47,151 --> 00:58:50,056
<i>That we can share</i>

879
00:58:50,126 --> 00:58:55,362
<i>With those in need
we see around us everywhere</i>

880
00:58:55,435 --> 00:58:59,772
<i>Let us always love each other</i>

881
00:59:01,077 --> 00:59:04,347
<i>Lead us to the light</i>

882
00:59:06,924 --> 00:59:12,263
<i>Let us hear the voice of reason</i>

883
00:59:12,334 --> 00:59:15,361
<i>Singing in the night</i>

884
00:59:17,776 --> 00:59:21,213
<i>Let us run from anger</i>

885
00:59:23,188 --> 00:59:27,218
<i>And catch us when we fall</i>

886
00:59:29,063 --> 00:59:34,233
<i>Teach us in our dreams
And please, yes, please,</i>

887
00:59:34,307 --> 00:59:37,642
<i>Bless us, one and all</i>

888
00:59:41,087 --> 00:59:43,283
<i>Bless us all</i>

889
00:59:43,357 --> 00:59:45,829
<i>With playful years</i>

890
00:59:45,896 --> 00:59:51,431
<i>With noisy games and joyful tears</i>

891
00:59:51,508 --> 00:59:54,408
<i>We reach for you</i>

892
00:59:54,476 --> 00:59:57,449
<i>And we stand tall</i>

893
00:59:57,516 --> 01:00:03,085
<i>And in our prayers and dreams
We ask you, bless us all</i>

894
01:00:03,161 --> 01:00:05,825
<i>We reach for you</i>

895
01:00:05,899 --> 01:00:09,702
<i>And we stand tall</i>

896
01:00:09,774 --> 01:00:14,213
<i>And in our prayers and dreams,
we ask you</i>

897
01:00:14,281 --> 01:00:18,311
<i>Bless us all</i>

898
01:00:24,601 --> 01:00:28,062
Let's all take our seats now.
Let's have dinner.

899
01:00:28,140 --> 01:00:32,308
Spirit, tell me if Tiny Tim will live.

900
01:00:32,380 --> 01:00:34,443
That is the future.

901
01:00:34,519 --> 01:00:36,511
My realm is the present.

902
01:00:36,589 --> 01:00:41,965
However, I see a vacant seat
by the chimney corner.

903
01:00:42,031 --> 01:00:44,368
And a crutch without an owner.

904
01:00:44,438 --> 01:00:49,939
If these shadows remain unaltered,
I believe the child will die.

905
01:00:50,015 --> 01:00:53,477
But then, if he's going to die,
he'd better do it,

906
01:00:53,555 --> 01:00:56,823
and decrease the surplus population.

907
01:00:56,896 --> 01:00:58,296
Oh, spirit.

908
01:00:58,366 --> 01:01:01,495
As the Cratchit family
vanished into the darkness,

909
01:01:01,570 --> 01:01:05,839
Scrooge kept his eyes upon Tiny Tim,
until the last.

910
01:01:05,912 --> 01:01:09,475
Come. My time grows short.

911
01:01:16,363 --> 01:01:18,301
Spirit, do you grow old?

912
01:01:18,369 --> 01:01:20,929
I do. [chuckles]

913
01:01:23,178 --> 01:01:25,444
Are spirits' lives so short?

914
01:01:25,516 --> 01:01:28,510
My time upon this globe is very brief.

915
01:01:28,588 --> 01:01:34,829
I believe it will end
upon the stroke of 12.

916
01:01:34,900 --> 01:01:36,766
[Rizzo] One.

917
01:01:36,835 --> 01:01:41,605
Now? But spirit,
I have learned so much from you.

918
01:01:41,710 --> 01:01:44,513
Nothing Scrooge could do or say
could stop

919
01:01:44,582 --> 01:01:47,784
the relentless march
of those terrible bells.

920
01:01:47,856 --> 01:01:49,849
Five!

921
01:01:49,927 --> 01:01:52,261
Oh, spirit, do not leave me.

922
01:01:52,331 --> 01:01:55,131
I think I must, in fact.

923
01:01:55,237 --> 01:01:58,300
You have meant so much to me.
You have changed me.

924
01:01:58,410 --> 01:02:03,749
And now I leave you with
the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come.

925
01:02:03,819 --> 01:02:07,225
- You mean, the future?
- Mm.

926
01:02:07,294 --> 01:02:08,352
Must I?

927
01:02:08,428 --> 01:02:14,201
Go forth, and know him better, man.

928
01:02:56,685 --> 01:03:00,716
Am I in the presence of the
Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come?

929
01:03:04,566 --> 01:03:11,000
Spirit, I fear you more
than any specter I have yet met.

930
01:03:12,414 --> 01:03:15,581
This is too scary.
I don't think I want to see any more.

931
01:03:15,653 --> 01:03:18,920
When you're right, you're right.
You're on your own, folks.

932
01:03:18,995 --> 01:03:22,830
- We'll meet you at the finale.
- Yeah.

933
01:03:23,700 --> 01:03:28,438
I am prepared to follow and to learn,
with a thankful heart.

934
01:03:31,783 --> 01:03:34,255
Will you not speak to me?

935
01:03:38,565 --> 01:03:42,627
Oh, yes, the night is waning fast.

936
01:03:42,703 --> 01:03:44,697
Lead on, spirit.

937
01:04:08,051 --> 01:04:10,782
No, I don't know much about it,
either way.

938
01:04:10,855 --> 01:04:13,555
I only know he's dead.

939
01:04:13,628 --> 01:04:16,795
- When?
- Last night, I believe.

940
01:04:16,868 --> 01:04:20,169
Wonder what he died of.
I thought he'd never go.

941
01:04:21,677 --> 01:04:23,874
I don't know or care why he's gone.

942
01:04:23,947 --> 01:04:26,383
I'd just like to know
what he's done with his money.

943
01:04:26,452 --> 01:04:27,978
Wouldn't we all?

944
01:04:28,056 --> 01:04:29,819
He didn't give it to me.

945
01:04:31,195 --> 01:04:33,792
It's likely to be a cheap funeral.

946
01:04:33,867 --> 01:04:36,702
I don't know a single soul
who would go to it.

947
01:04:36,773 --> 01:04:39,106
- I wouldn't mind going.
- Eh?

948
01:04:39,176 --> 01:04:41,407
If lunch is provided.

949
01:04:43,685 --> 01:04:46,019
- Speaking of lunch...
- Oh, yes.

950
01:04:49,361 --> 01:04:52,164
I know some of those gentlemen, spirit.

951
01:04:52,235 --> 01:04:55,263
Of what poor wretch do they speak?

952
01:05:10,737 --> 01:05:14,766
So, back from the house of sadness,
I see.

953
01:05:14,842 --> 01:05:18,372
Sad that he didn't die years ago,
the old skinflint.

954
01:05:18,449 --> 01:05:20,580
- Hear, hear.
- Let me see.

955
01:05:20,655 --> 01:05:22,955
What have you got for old Joe?

956
01:05:23,025 --> 01:05:26,829
What have you got for me
to remember him by?

957
01:05:26,898 --> 01:05:28,695
Joe, get off.

958
01:05:28,767 --> 01:05:32,764
Well, I got these collar buttons
from his dresser.

959
01:05:33,843 --> 01:05:36,077
Mother of pearl.

960
01:05:36,149 --> 01:05:38,915
No, I got his bed curtains.

961
01:05:38,986 --> 01:05:42,050
Very fine damask. [laughs]

962
01:05:42,126 --> 01:05:45,930
Very cheap damask.
But worth a few coins.

963
01:05:46,002 --> 01:05:48,232
I've got his blankets.

964
01:05:48,305 --> 01:05:53,837
His blankets?
Why, Mrs. Dilber, they're still warm.

965
01:05:53,914 --> 01:05:57,513
I don't pay extra for the warmth,
you know.

966
01:05:57,589 --> 01:06:00,617
You should.
It's the only warmth he ever had.

967
01:06:08,007 --> 01:06:09,637
I understand, spirit.

968
01:06:09,712 --> 01:06:13,080
The case of this unhappy man
might be my own.

969
01:06:13,150 --> 01:06:15,815
My life turns that way now.

970
01:06:15,890 --> 01:06:17,882
Merciful heavens.

971
01:06:18,864 --> 01:06:22,391
Let me see some tenderness
connected with this world,

972
01:06:22,468 --> 01:06:25,838
or I'll be haunted
by that terrible conversation forever.

973
01:06:33,458 --> 01:06:36,291
It's Bob Cratchit's house.

974
01:06:36,362 --> 01:06:38,799
Oh, yes, spirit.

975
01:06:38,866 --> 01:06:40,858
A place of joy and laughter.

976
01:06:41,805 --> 01:06:44,333
Thank you for bringing me here.

977
01:06:49,886 --> 01:06:52,185
It's so quiet.

978
01:06:54,563 --> 01:06:56,931
Why is it so quiet, spirit?

979
01:07:13,999 --> 01:07:15,831
Mother, you're crying again.

980
01:07:15,902 --> 01:07:19,341
It's just the lamplight,
that hurts my eyes.

981
01:07:23,884 --> 01:07:25,876
Not Tiny Tim?

982
01:07:27,358 --> 01:07:31,764
There, now.
My eyes get weak in the dim light.

983
01:07:31,833 --> 01:07:35,202
I would not want to show
weak eyes to your father,

984
01:07:35,272 --> 01:07:37,539
when he gets home,
for anything in the world.

985
01:07:37,610 --> 01:07:40,443
He should be back now.

986
01:07:40,514 --> 01:07:45,353
I think he's walked a little slower
these past two evenings.

987
01:07:46,426 --> 01:07:48,555
Hello, my dears.

988
01:07:48,630 --> 01:07:49,756
Daddy.

989
01:07:52,205 --> 01:07:53,967
Hello, girls.

990
01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,100
Hello, Peter.

991
01:07:55,175 --> 01:07:58,511
Children, please go set the table.

992
01:07:58,582 --> 01:08:00,449
Thank you.

993
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:02,113
How was the churchyard?

994
01:08:02,190 --> 01:08:03,783
It will be lovely, Emily.

995
01:08:03,858 --> 01:08:07,957
It would have done you good
to see how green the place is.

996
01:08:08,032 --> 01:08:12,872
I picked a spot for Tim
where he can see...

997
01:08:12,942 --> 01:08:15,778
It's, it's a spot on the hill.

998
01:08:15,847 --> 01:08:18,317
You can see the ducks on the river.

999
01:08:18,384 --> 01:08:19,612
Tiny Tim...

1000
01:08:19,686 --> 01:08:23,491
Tiny Tim always loved
watching the ducks on the river.

1001
01:08:26,735 --> 01:08:32,075
Spirit, must there be a Christmas
that brings this awful scene?

1002
01:08:34,046 --> 01:08:36,041
How can we endure it?

1003
01:08:38,890 --> 01:08:41,156
It's all right, children.

1004
01:08:42,363 --> 01:08:44,732
Life is made up
of meetings and partings.

1005
01:08:44,802 --> 01:08:46,633
That is the way of it.

1006
01:08:47,805 --> 01:08:50,938
I am sure we shall never forget
Tiny Tim.

1007
01:08:51,013 --> 01:08:53,814
Or this first parting
that there was among us.

1008
01:09:30,420 --> 01:09:32,584
Must we return to this place?

1009
01:09:36,132 --> 01:09:38,295
There is something else
that I must know?

1010
01:09:38,368 --> 01:09:40,895
Is that not true?

1011
01:09:42,476 --> 01:09:45,846
Spirit, I know what I must ask.

1012
01:09:45,916 --> 01:09:48,354
I fear to, but I must.

1013
01:09:49,656 --> 01:09:51,318
Who was the wretched man

1014
01:09:51,392 --> 01:09:54,263
whose death brought
so much glee and happiness to others?

1015
01:10:07,322 --> 01:10:09,258
Answer me one more question.

1016
01:10:09,326 --> 01:10:11,797
Are these the shadows
of things that will be?

1017
01:10:11,865 --> 01:10:14,529
Or are they the shadows
of things that may be, only?

1018
01:10:24,020 --> 01:10:26,355
These events can be changed.

1019
01:10:38,714 --> 01:10:41,049
A life can be made right.

1020
01:11:01,958 --> 01:11:04,086
Ebenezer Scrooge.

1021
01:11:04,160 --> 01:11:06,996
Oh, please, spirit, no.

1022
01:11:07,067 --> 01:11:09,593
Hear me, I'm not the man I was.

1023
01:11:11,374 --> 01:11:14,712
Why would you show me this
if I was past all hope?

1024
01:11:16,383 --> 01:11:20,324
I will honor Christmas,
and try to keep it all the year.

1025
01:11:22,896 --> 01:11:27,302
I will live my life in the past,
the present, and the future.

1026
01:11:27,371 --> 01:11:31,142
I will not shut out the lessons
the spirits have taught me.

1027
01:11:31,212 --> 01:11:34,549
Tell me that I may sponge out
the writing on this stone.

1028
01:11:37,256 --> 01:11:39,990
Spirit, please speak to me.

1029
01:11:59,065 --> 01:12:00,727
I'm home.

1030
01:12:04,307 --> 01:12:06,333
Yes, the bedposts were his own.

1031
01:12:06,412 --> 01:12:09,713
The bed was his own.
The room was his own.

1032
01:12:09,785 --> 01:12:12,015
Hi, guys, we're back.

1033
01:12:12,087 --> 01:12:14,059
We promised we would be.

1034
01:12:14,127 --> 01:12:16,618
But the thing that made Scrooge
happiest of all

1035
01:12:16,696 --> 01:12:18,690
was that his life lay before him.

1036
01:12:18,769 --> 01:12:20,862
And it could be changed.

1037
01:12:20,938 --> 01:12:24,377
I will live my life in the past,
the present, and the future.

1038
01:12:24,446 --> 01:12:26,971
Oh, Jacob and Robert Marley.

1039
01:12:27,050 --> 01:12:29,646
Heaven in the Christmas time
be praised for this day.

1040
01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:31,883
I say it on my knees,
Jacob and Robert.

1041
01:12:31,958 --> 01:12:33,222
On my knees.

1042
01:12:33,296 --> 01:12:36,825
Oh, they're not torn down.
They're here.

1043
01:12:36,900 --> 01:12:39,531
And I'm here. It's a miracle.

1044
01:12:44,650 --> 01:12:47,279
I don't know what to do.
I'm as light as a feather.

1045
01:12:47,355 --> 01:12:50,689
I'm as happy as an angel,
I'm as merry as a schoolboy.

1046
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:53,493
Do you think it's safe
for us to be up here?

1047
01:12:53,567 --> 01:12:55,593
Scrooge is saved,
what can happen now?

1048
01:12:55,670 --> 01:12:56,831
Yeah.

1049
01:13:00,578 --> 01:13:02,480
You there, boy.

1050
01:13:02,550 --> 01:13:04,075
What, me?

1051
01:13:05,121 --> 01:13:07,456
Uh, that is, "What, me, sir?"

1052
01:13:07,526 --> 01:13:09,859
- What's today?
- Pardon?

1053
01:13:09,930 --> 01:13:11,991
What's today, my fine fellow?

1054
01:13:12,068 --> 01:13:14,766
Today? Today is Christmas Day.

1055
01:13:14,839 --> 01:13:16,366
It's Christmas Day?

1056
01:13:16,443 --> 01:13:19,676
I haven't missed it.
The spirits did it all in one night.

1057
01:13:19,748 --> 01:13:22,812
They can do anything they like.
Of course they can.

1058
01:13:22,887 --> 01:13:25,356
- Of course they can.
- Of course they can.

1059
01:13:25,425 --> 01:13:27,258
Know the poultry shop nearby?

1060
01:13:27,329 --> 01:13:29,696
- Yes, sir, I do.
- An intelligent lad.

1061
01:13:29,767 --> 01:13:32,261
A remarkable lad.

1062
01:13:32,339 --> 01:13:35,437
Do you know whether the prize turkey
has been sold in the window?

1063
01:13:35,513 --> 01:13:38,608
The one twice as big as me?
It's still there.

1064
01:13:38,683 --> 01:13:40,748
It's a pleasure talking with you, lad.

1065
01:13:40,823 --> 01:13:43,257
- Go and buy it.
- Be serious.

1066
01:13:43,327 --> 01:13:46,423
I am serious. Buy it for me
and I'll give you a shilling.

1067
01:13:46,498 --> 01:13:48,830
No, I'll give you five shillings.

1068
01:13:50,807 --> 01:13:52,036
Wow!

1069
01:13:52,108 --> 01:13:54,910
And so the boy was off like a shot.
So even...

1070
01:13:56,550 --> 01:13:58,347
Um... Sorry.

1071
01:13:59,523 --> 01:14:01,651
I'll bring it to Bob Cratchit's house.

1072
01:14:01,727 --> 01:14:05,598
What a surprise it'll be.
It's twice the size of Tiny Tim.

1073
01:14:05,667 --> 01:14:09,071
And a few moments later,
dressed in his finest,

1074
01:14:09,141 --> 01:14:11,701
Scrooge appeared
on the streets of the city

1075
01:14:11,778 --> 01:14:15,582
to wish Merry Christmas
to all the world.

1076
01:14:15,652 --> 01:14:17,747
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

1077
01:14:17,821 --> 01:14:19,759
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

1078
01:14:19,828 --> 01:14:22,126
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.

1079
01:14:24,002 --> 01:14:25,799
Gee, thanks.

1080
01:14:25,870 --> 01:14:29,471
Everyone was out and about
this fine morning.

1081
01:14:29,546 --> 01:14:32,914
And soon he encountered
two familiar faces.

1082
01:14:34,554 --> 01:14:36,113
Mr. Scrooge.

1083
01:14:36,190 --> 01:14:38,788
Pardon me, gentlemen,
but about the charity donation

1084
01:14:38,863 --> 01:14:40,660
you asked me for yesterday?

1085
01:14:40,733 --> 01:14:42,291
Put me down for...

1086
01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:45,767
That much?

1087
01:14:45,841 --> 01:14:47,675
Not a penny less.

1088
01:14:47,744 --> 01:14:50,741
A great many back payments
are included in it, I assure you.

1089
01:14:50,819 --> 01:14:53,655
My goodness,
I don't know what to say.

1090
01:14:53,724 --> 01:14:56,717
I just wish there was something
we could give you.

1091
01:15:02,038 --> 01:15:04,237
A gift?

1092
01:15:04,310 --> 01:15:06,404
A gift for me?

1093
01:15:14,028 --> 01:15:15,554
Thank you.

1094
01:15:16,265 --> 01:15:17,461
Thank you.

1095
01:15:17,535 --> 01:15:21,736
- 50 times! And a Merry Christmas.
- Here's your turkey, Mr. Scrooge.

1096
01:15:21,809 --> 01:15:23,802
Follow me, lad.

1097
01:15:25,449 --> 01:15:27,943
<i>With a thankful heart,
with an endless joy</i>

1098
01:15:28,022 --> 01:15:30,491
<i>With a growing family
Every girl and boy</i>

1099
01:15:30,559 --> 01:15:33,029
<i>Will be nephew and niece to me</i>

1100
01:15:33,098 --> 01:15:35,295
<i>Nephew and niece to me</i>

1101
01:15:35,368 --> 01:15:38,239
<i>Will bring love, hope,
and peace to me</i>

1102
01:15:38,307 --> 01:15:40,435
<i>Love, hope, and peace to me</i>

1103
01:15:40,511 --> 01:15:42,707
<i>Yes, and every night will end</i>

1104
01:15:42,782 --> 01:15:45,083
<i>And every day will start</i>

1105
01:15:45,153 --> 01:15:50,094
<i>With a grateful prayer
and a thankful heart</i>

1106
01:15:50,162 --> 01:15:52,656
<i>With an open smile
and with open doors</i>

1107
01:15:52,732 --> 01:15:55,169
<i>I will bid you welcome
What is mine is yours</i>

1108
01:15:55,238 --> 01:15:57,674
<i>With a glass raised
to toast your health</i>

1109
01:15:57,743 --> 01:16:00,269
<i>With a glass raised
to toast your health</i>

1110
01:16:00,347 --> 01:16:02,784
<i>And a promise to share the wealth</i>

1111
01:16:02,854 --> 01:16:05,118
<i>A promise to share the wealth</i>

1112
01:16:05,190 --> 01:16:07,353
<i>I will sail a friendly course</i>

1113
01:16:07,428 --> 01:16:09,728
<i>Follow a friendly chart</i>

1114
01:16:09,799 --> 01:16:14,137
<i>On a sea of love
and a thankful heart</i>

1115
01:16:14,207 --> 01:16:16,610
<i>Life is like a journey</i>

1116
01:16:18,782 --> 01:16:21,150
<i>Who knows when it ends?</i>

1117
01:16:24,559 --> 01:16:27,054
<i>Yes, and if you need to know</i>

1118
01:16:27,132 --> 01:16:29,567
<i>The measure of a man</i>

1119
01:16:29,636 --> 01:16:33,770
<i>You simply count his friends</i>

1120
01:16:33,843 --> 01:16:37,213
<i>Stop and look around you</i>

1121
01:16:38,385 --> 01:16:42,051
<i>The glory that you see</i>

1122
01:16:44,530 --> 01:16:49,267
<i>Is born again each day
Don't let it slip away</i>

1123
01:16:49,339 --> 01:16:53,176
<i>How precious life can be</i>

1124
01:17:39,265 --> 01:17:41,759
<i>With a thankful heart
that is wide awake</i>

1125
01:17:41,836 --> 01:17:44,239
<i>I do make this promise,
every breath I take</i>

1126
01:17:44,309 --> 01:17:47,040
<i>Will be used now to sing your praise</i>

1127
01:17:47,113 --> 01:17:49,311
<i>Used now to sing your praise</i>

1128
01:17:49,385 --> 01:17:51,946
<i>And to beg you to share my days</i>

1129
01:17:52,022 --> 01:17:54,323
<i>Beg you to share my days</i>

1130
01:17:54,395 --> 01:17:56,590
<i>With a loving guarantee</i>

1131
01:17:56,665 --> 01:17:59,034
<i>That even if we part</i>

1132
01:17:59,103 --> 01:18:02,633
<i>I will hold you close
in a thankful heart</i>

1133
01:18:04,013 --> 01:18:09,353
<i>I will hold you close
in a thankful heart</i>

1134
01:18:32,199 --> 01:18:34,293
Bob Cratchit?

1135
01:18:37,009 --> 01:18:38,374
So, here you are.

1136
01:18:38,444 --> 01:18:40,469
M-M-M-Mr. Scrooge.

1137
01:18:40,848 --> 01:18:44,048
You, sir, were not at work this morning
as we had discussed.

1138
01:18:44,121 --> 01:18:46,921
But, Mr. Scrooge, sir,
we did discuss it.

1139
01:18:46,994 --> 01:18:49,257
It's Christmas Day.
You gave me the day off.

1140
01:18:49,329 --> 01:18:50,422
I?

1141
01:18:50,497 --> 01:18:52,970
I, Ebenezer Scrooge?

1142
01:18:53,038 --> 01:18:54,903
- Would I do a thing like that?
- No.

1143
01:18:54,973 --> 01:18:56,739
I mean, yes, but you did.

1144
01:18:56,812 --> 01:18:58,780
Bob Cratchit, I've had my fill of this.

1145
01:18:58,848 --> 01:19:01,616
And I have had my fill of you,
Mr. Scrooge.

1146
01:19:01,688 --> 01:19:03,246
And therefore, Bob Cratchit...

1147
01:19:03,323 --> 01:19:05,726
And therefore,
you can leave this house at once.

1148
01:19:05,796 --> 01:19:08,161
And therefore,
I'm about to raise your salary.

1149
01:19:08,232 --> 01:19:12,071
And I am about to raise you
right off the pavement...

1150
01:19:12,141 --> 01:19:13,232
- Pardon?
- Pardon?

1151
01:19:13,309 --> 01:19:14,776
Yes, Bob.

1152
01:19:14,846 --> 01:19:16,509
Raise your salary.

1153
01:19:16,582 --> 01:19:19,518
And pay your mortgage
on this house.

1154
01:19:21,358 --> 01:19:23,258
Please, sir, come inside.

1155
01:19:23,328 --> 01:19:24,591
Yes, yes.

1156
01:19:24,663 --> 01:19:27,997
Bob Cratchit, would you and your family
care to join us

1157
01:19:28,068 --> 01:19:31,701
for a little turkey dinner
on this fine Christmas Day?

1158
01:19:31,775 --> 01:19:33,767
Merry Christmas.

1159
01:19:43,900 --> 01:19:46,335
And Scrooge
was better than his word.

1160
01:19:46,403 --> 01:19:49,137
He did it all, and infinitely more.

1161
01:19:49,210 --> 01:19:51,110
And, er, Tiny Tim?

1162
01:19:51,178 --> 01:19:52,736
And Tiny Tim,

1163
01:19:52,815 --> 01:19:54,445
who did not die...

1164
01:19:54,519 --> 01:19:56,044
Isn't that swell?

1165
01:19:56,122 --> 01:19:59,390
To Tiny Tim,
Scrooge became a second father.

1166
01:19:59,460 --> 01:20:02,124
He became as good a friend,
as good a master,

1167
01:20:02,199 --> 01:20:05,968
and as good a man
as the good old city ever had.

1168
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:09,103
It was always said of him that
he knew how to keep Christmas well,

1169
01:20:09,179 --> 01:20:11,546
if any man alive
possessed the knowledge.

1170
01:20:11,616 --> 01:20:15,852
May that truly be said of us
and all of us.

1171
01:20:15,923 --> 01:20:18,453
And so, as Tiny Tim observed...

1172
01:20:18,531 --> 01:20:21,500
- God bless us.
- God bless us.

1173
01:20:21,568 --> 01:20:23,300
Every one.

1174
01:20:24,910 --> 01:20:28,178
<i>The love we found</i>

1175
01:20:28,248 --> 01:20:31,811
<i>The love we found</i>

1176
01:20:31,887 --> 01:20:34,415
<i>We carry with us</i>

1177
01:20:34,493 --> 01:20:38,594
<i>So we're never quite alone</i>

1178
01:20:39,603 --> 01:20:43,201
<i>The love we found</i>

1179
01:20:43,276 --> 01:20:46,180
<i>The love we found</i>

1180
01:20:47,184 --> 01:20:49,881
<i>The sweetest dream</i>

1181
01:20:49,956 --> 01:20:54,258
<i>That we have ever known</i>

1182
01:20:54,330 --> 01:20:57,235
Hey, say goodbye!

1183
01:20:58,438 --> 01:21:01,340
<i>The love we found</i>

1184
01:21:02,813 --> 01:21:04,806
Goodbye, goodbye.

1185
01:21:04,883 --> 01:21:09,325
<i>So we're never quite alone</i>

1186
01:21:10,259 --> 01:21:12,094
Nice story, Mr. Dickens.

1187
01:21:12,165 --> 01:21:15,431
Thanks. If you like this,
you should read the book.

1188
01:21:15,503 --> 01:21:18,441
<i>It's in the singing
of a street corner choir</i>

1189
01:21:18,509 --> 01:21:21,106
<i>It's going home
and getting warm by the fire</i>

1190
01:21:21,181 --> 01:21:24,277
<i>It's true wherever you find love</i>

1191
01:21:24,353 --> 01:21:26,846
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

1192
01:21:26,926 --> 01:21:29,622
<i>A cup of kindness
that we share with another</i>

1193
01:21:29,695 --> 01:21:32,428
<i>A sweet reunion
with a friend or a brother</i>

1194
01:21:32,503 --> 01:21:35,532
<i>In all the places you find love</i>

1195
01:21:35,608 --> 01:21:38,909
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

1196
01:21:38,979 --> 01:21:42,977
<i>It is the season of the heart</i>

1197
01:21:43,055 --> 01:21:45,926
<i>A special time of caring</i>

1198
01:21:45,994 --> 01:21:49,727
<i>The ways of love made clear</i>

1199
01:21:49,801 --> 01:21:54,605
<i>And it is the season
of the spirit</i>

1200
01:21:54,675 --> 01:21:57,306
<i>The message if we hear it</i>

1201
01:21:57,381 --> 01:22:01,618
<i>Is make it last all year</i>

1202
01:22:01,689 --> 01:22:07,257
Oh, Yes! Make it last all year.

1203
01:22:07,333 --> 01:22:09,301
<i>It's in the giving of a gift
to another</i>

1204
01:22:09,370 --> 01:22:12,170
<i>A pair of mittens
that were made by your mother</i>

1205
01:22:12,242 --> 01:22:15,340
<i>It's all the ways that we show love</i>

1206
01:22:15,415 --> 01:22:17,851
<i>That feel like Christmas</i>

1207
01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:20,551
<i>A part of childhood
we'll always remember</i>

1208
01:22:20,624 --> 01:22:23,321
<i>It is the summer of the soul
in December</i>

1209
01:22:23,396 --> 01:22:26,596
<i>Yes, when you do your best
for love</i>

1210
01:22:26,669 --> 01:22:28,970
<i>It feels like Christmas</i>

1211
01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:33,983
<i>And remember,
it is the season of the heart</i>

1212
01:22:34,051 --> 01:22:36,952
<i>A special time of caring</i>

1213
