Original subtitles

Oh, Jenny, you've been naughty. The spirit of Christmas demands a sacrifice.

Somebody! Somebody save me!

Better watch out. Better not die.

Stop right there, Santa.

Casey!

You gonna shoot me like a naughty little boy?

Or fight me like a man?

No sugar cookies for you.

You're gonna eat your words.

very good night to you.

See you in Jingle Hell.

Now you're the only one I have in the world.

Casey.

Casey!

Casey!

Casey?

Casey!

Cody?

Cody.

Hey, Cody.

Cody! What?

Are you done yet?

I don't know. I just... I don't think we should end up like that.

Do I detect trouble in paradise?

What are you girls talking about?

Having a little lover's spat?

Cody's laid his brainchild. He wants to end it with ruby slippers instead of

going dark.

Look, man, I just think we could use a little more redemption is all.

Maybe you can check it out?

I'll see if I can squeeze this into my schedule.

Now!

Who here is good with knots?

I'm certainly not.

Oh, come on. Aren't you guys excited? Tomorrow's the first ever Big Easy

Christmas Eve party.

Yeah, of course I am. It's just, you know, my mom always has me help at the

Christmas Eve community dinner at her restaurant.

You're still making it to the party, though, right?

I mean, if I can escape my parents, sure. You have to escape your parents.

Houdini, then. It's going to be the biggest party of the century.

Right.

This is funny.

Yeah, it's because I wrote it. Next Frank Miller over here.

Thanks, man.

Whoa.

This elf kill, it's savage.

Sometimes you just gotta jump the shark.

Right. Not funny.

You know, your cartoon about school uniform got more likes than the winter

dance. Yeah, it's my 9 -to -mobile. All right, I'm out of here, guys.

Later, man. Live long.

JFK to MSY is nothing. Try flying to Hong Kong and back six times a quarter.

It's humid here.

This is going to be terrible for my hair.

No, we are not giving them the A -series. Have you seen their projected

earnings?

That is a terrible idea. You've got to be kidding me with that.

No, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not listening.

Somebody's at the door.

Can you just do what I tell you to do? Put the phone down, Mikey. Come on.

I got it. Mikey, Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Bob. How you doing?

I'm good. Good, good, good.

And you must be Georgia.

I'm Chante.

Mademoiselle.

Joshy. Uncle Mike, how are you? I'm good. You still pitching? I'll be

this season.

You know, before I went to Cornell, I used to throw the ball around a bit.

Had a mean slider.

Cornell talk already.

I heard that.

So, Georgia, what do you do?

I'm a model.

Oh, a model. For whom?

Snaps to Graham.

Snaps to Ham? I don't think I know them.

LOL.

Gesundheit.

Right flying to Hong Kong six times a quarter.

How have you guys been?

Like chickens running around with their heads cut off. The Christmas Eve dinner

tomorrow.

Big brother? Who you calling big?

You know, we really missed you guys at the wedding.

Well, it was in Monaco.

You gave us a week's notice.

Cody!

How you doing, kiddo?

Good, Uncle Mike.

Still drawing those cartoons of yours?

Comic.

Yeah.

Comic book sign.

Stand corrected.

What photo? On the wedding.

Yes, that's right.

You follow each other. Yeah.

One out of her, like, 120 ,000 followers. Yeah? What's that?

That's fully appropriate.

Are you sure?

Yes. Send it to me. Thanks so much, John.

And have a Merry Christmas.

I just got a call from Principal Matusi.

He said you drew an offensive cartoon that's all over social media.

I have no idea what he's talking about.

Really?

Oh. Well, it looks like your artwork to me.

The institution of uniforms at a public school is unjust, okay? Clothes are an

expression of our individuality. Cody. And if we start to suppress free speech

now, we're headed towards totalitarianism. Take it down now.

Oh, great.

Merry Christmas.

What about the First Amendment? How can you be so selfish? Your father teaches

at that school.

You're embarrassing this family. Okay, come on. It's not that serious.

Yes, it is.

You're grounded.

For a week.

What? But tomorrow is the Christmas Eve comic book party.

Oh, you should have thought of that before.

Go to your room.

With pleasure.

We've got to take off and shut down the restaurant for the night.

You guys will be fine peddling in.

Yeah, I'll get them set up.

We'll be back before you know it.

It was really nice meeting you.

Don't be long.

We will.

Who wants eggnog?

Homemade? Made it myself.

Hey, Uncle Mike.

Cody.

I didn't see you over there.

Don't worry.

Go, Nark.

Thanks.

Papa still hates me smoking.

You know, I have a lot of friends in the art world, if you ever wanted to visit

New York.

Yeah, no, I'd love to, but...

My mom would never allow that.

You know, you should take it easy on your mom.

She was quite the rebel back in her day.

Mom. Oh, yeah.

You should ask her about her punk rock phase sometime.

You got it.

Yeah. Oh, hey, you forgot.

Whoa. What?

You better be in bed.

I can't stand her.

They don't care about me.

No one has my back.

I'm better off alone.

What? Rise and shine, little man.

Grandpa, what time is it?

It's time to go fishing.

Are you serious?

Did you forget about our annual Christmas Eve fishing trip?

I am very tired and very grounded.

I know.

And I know it's your comic book store Christmas party today.

Maybe we can stop by on the way back. What do you think?

Secret.

Fine, just looking for that gopher mom was on about.

What are we doing that?

Gopher, mm -hmm. Let me help you out. Oh, okay, thanks.

Just like your grandfather.

Not a creature was staring, except for me, looking like an idiot.

Come on, let's fly.

Just the two of us, out on the water, Christmas tomorrow.

This is it.

This is the good stuff.

I guess.

I guess.

Usually you love fishing.

Something wrong?

There's nothing wrong.

Something's wrong.

Have anything to do with that girl?

What's there to talk about?

She just moved here. She's some track and field star. I mean... Sounds cool to

me.

Last time I tried to talk to her, I spilled milk all over myself in the

cafeteria, so that kind of sucked, too.

It was bad.

Cody.

I understand feeling embarrassed.

Lord knows I've had my moments.

But you gotta face your fears now.

Or you just get better and better at avoiding them.

Maybe it's worth another try.

Huh?

Thanks, Papa.

Of course.

All right.

Now, how about passing me my thermos?

Get a little of that eggnog I make every year.

I've been bragging about it myself.

Here you go.

Oh, yeah.

Want a little snort?

Sure.

Oh, sorry, Grandpa.

That's all right.

I got another one right over there. Great, okay. I'll grab it.

Uncle Mike, you coming with?

Ready when you are, sir. Something terrible happened.

Cody, what are you doing? You're supposed to be in your room.

Me and Papa were at the fishing hall and something attacked him.

What are you talking about?

A shark. A shark attacked Papa.

Cody, don't make things up.

I'm not.

Do I need to go inside and wake him up?

Yes, go.

Don't be ridiculous.

Cody, we won't engage in these fancies. I'm not lying.

You're grounded for another week.

Now go to your room.

You know how important honesty is to the family?

And dragging your grandfather into this, who loves you so much.

Are there really sharks here? Give me your phone. Look, we have to do

Hand it over now.

I can't believe you would do this on Christmas Eve.

Do you even think about going out again?

I'm going to take away all your art supplies.

Fine. Let's go.

I'm very disappointed in you, son.

Wait, bro.

I can't just stay here and do nothing.

If you sit here, you've got a thing out there.

But what am I going to do?

No one's going to believe there's a great white shark attack in Port City.

hasn't been a shark in these parts in a thousand years.

It got Papa.

And if it got Papa, it could get others.

There will be others.

I have to do something.

Mama's furious, man. She was mad furious. I mean,

if I leave, oh, God.

No.

Nobody's going to kill us.

You'll have to do something. There are real eyes at stake there.

Mom.

Dad.

I know that you don't believe me.

But you're in danger.

I'm talking about writing a comic that is so original that it defies all comic

tropes.

Like a genius scientist who creates a super formula, but then, when he tests

it on himself, things go terribly wrong.

Seriously?

It's something that makes you think about the structure of a graphic novel,

airy page.

You know, that, to me, that sounds dull.

Shut it! Something happened!

What up to you?

Look, something attacked Papa at the bay this morning.

A great white shark attacked Papa. We were at the fishing hole, and something

grabbed him and pulled him into the water.

Sure, Mr. Dreyfuss. How big was the beast?

20 feet, maybe bigger.

Oh, and let me guess, it has glowing red eyes like Rudolph's nose?

Exactly, exactly, exactly. It's savage, and it almost got me.

I see, I see what he's doing.

Yeah. Well, since you're a monster, you should probably get the pronoun right.

Santa Jaws is a she.

Born a runt, she was attacked by the other sharks in a frenzy. She only

by becoming the fastest and the smartest of them all. After eating evil with

Santa, she gained his power. She doubled in size.

She grew so powerful that no other sharks would even get near her.

Ever since, she roamed the oceans alone.

Cut off by her own savage nature.

Can you stop?

What's making it better?

Yeah.

Yeah, I know that because they illustrated every panel. And I just saw

thing out there.

It's alive.

And we're supposed to believe that she ate your grandfather? I know it sounds

unbelievable, but it's true.

No, no. It doesn't sound unbelievable.

It sounds absolutely insane.

Yeah. Kind of like that time that you...

Saw the demonic clown who lived in that abandoned building at the end of

Congress Street.

Or the time that you swore that a car set dug itself out of its own grave and

was hiding in your backyard.

Okay, that was four years ago. Okay.

The evil shed, that's it.

Evil shed.

Where's the comic book clerk? Where's Santa Jaws?

Oh, I really dug that. It was awesome.

I mean, it was no, uh, eviscerator.

You guys have read my latest, right?

Yeah, we all have.

Of course you have.

Yeah, no, Santa Jaws, absolutely solid.

I gave it to a regular. You what?

What? Okay, she's not a regular yet, but she will be.

Guaranteed. She just moved here. She knows her comics, too.

I mean, she looked at your artwork and was, like, drawn in.

Smart.

Are you kidding?

No, I'm not kidding.

You guys need an ending, right?

Isn't that what you were bickering about the other day, like two little girls?

Huh? Couldn't decide on how to end the thing?

I gave it to a regular, Cody.

You know why?

Because regulars?

Are the people.

You gotta listen to the people. Who did you give it to?

Bad touch, bad touch, bad touch.

I gave it to a girl named Jenna.

The plot thickens.

You know her?

That's the girl from English class, right? Shut up.

Your neighbor, right? Shut up.

Your dream girl. Can you not be an ass for one second?

Yeah, no, he...

Can't not be that.

Look, there was a shark in Port City Waters.

Whether you believe me or not, it's out there.

Right.

You know what? You want to come with me? I'll show you.

You know what? This port's a bust, isn't it? Let's go.

Clark, are you coming with us?

Who's going to watch the store? Okay, whatever.

Hey, man, don't break a nail.

You know that sexist, right, that comment?

Almost done.

And look.

Ooh, very nice.

This is going to make such a VQ post.

Feeling flaky.

Yours looks weird.

It's a Mobius strip flake.

What's a Mobius strip?

It's a one -sided, non -orientable surface embedded in Euclidean space.

What do you do again?

I'm a high school physics teacher.

That makes sense.

You two looking gross.

Yes.

How are things coming in the kitchen?

We just put in the turkeys, Josh and Mike are peeling potatoes, and I'm about

start the pie crust.

Your famous apple.

That's right.

Pecan pitted cheese and my homemade whipped cream.

My not -so -secret recipe.

How long have you guys been doing this Christmas Eve dinner?

Almost, uh, decades.

It's our way of giving back to the community.

It's like your own personal ice bucket challenge.

Starting to smell pretty damn good in there.

We should get going before we can't. We're not ready?

Yeah. We rented a yacht for the annual Christmas Day boat parade.

Couldn't possibly visit Port City without showing Georgia my seafaring

My followers are going to love it. It's been months since they've seen me in a

bikini.

Do you remember when we were kids? We used to watch the parade together.

Man, you couldn't get enough of those lights.

Yeah, Ben, you couldn't get enough of those yachts.

Well, what's the point of having a boat if it's not the biggest?

We love watching the parade from the restaurant deck.

We'll wait for you tomorrow.

Deal.

Hashtag Christmas spirit.

I don't see a thing.

No, she was out here.

Disappearing into the depths.

Stalking the ocean deep into her next attack.

This is where she was. This is where it happened.

Tricky fists.

Sharks are going to jerk these.

Holy moler.

What are teeth that size?

Only a great white shark.

A big one.

You think it's Santa Jaws? I know it's Santa Jaws.

We need to get that comic book back.

Well, at least you and Jenna have something to talk about now.

Santa Jaws is coming to town.

How do I look?

Did you go shopping again?

Why do you expect me to come unprepared?

Take a picture.

It's the only way to know for sure.

You look spectacular.

Anyway, it's just going to be you and me out there, hon.

One, two, three.

Beautiful.

You, me, and 120 ,000 of my followers.

They can only take so many cardigans and pumpkin spice lattes.

Oh, cute.

You're getting good at this.

You have been listening.

Well, yeah, after the dog -walking leotard incident.

All right, let's get this baby cranked

up.

Hmm.

What was that?

Uh, the motor?

Is it supposed to sound like that?

I don't think so I'll check it out You stay here looking hot

Oh, my God.

My pores look terrible.

Christmas lights in the propeller.

It's a new one.

Okay, just hang here.

Let me handle this.

Say anything.

I got this.

Oh, hell no. I've got this.

Hi, Mary.

Happy holiday. Um, this is Steve. I'm Cody. We all go to school together.

Yeah, I thought you'd eat it this morning.

I like her already.

So why were you jogging at five in the morning?

I need to get my $1 ,500 and $2 ,000 down before the beginning of the season.

Keep a very strict schedule.

Oh, yeah, you're that track and field girl that my sister keeps talking about.

The whole varsity team can't keep up with her.

I'm aiming for a scholarship to USC, which means I should be getting back to

role. Wait, um, Clark, the owner of Big Easy Comics, said that he gave you a

comic book. Can I draw it?

He did.

That guy kind of has a creepy vibe.

Do you still have it with you? The comic?

Yeah. The illustrations are cool, and I like the callback threat playing.

I wrote it, actually.

Do you want it back?

Yes, please. That would be great. Thank you. Thank you.

Bro, nice move. Bro.

Yeah, my parents have been asking me to do that for years. Now they're on a

Christmas trip into Bahamas without me.

So, yeah, I'm considering it.

It's gone.

It's what?

The comic's gone. I must have left it at my dad's boat this morning when we were

decorating it.

Um, we kind of need it back. I can take you.

That would be great. That'd be awesome. It's only like a 12 -minute jog.

Are you okay?

Something pulled Mike into the water. He's gone.

Mike is gone.

Whoa, whoa. What do you mean, Mike is gone?

Josh, get her something to cover up.

There was a thin, big, red fin.

I don't know.

It looked like Santa, like Santa's camera.

Wait, why didn't you see?

There was a splash, and then...

He was telling the truth. No, she's in shock.

We need to call the police. No.

You take her home, son. You get her whatever she wants, okay? We'll meet you

there. Go with Josh. Where are you going?

We're going to find Mike.

I just need to walk out. Grab the key. Just go home, okay? Be safe. Just go

home. We'll be... I can't remember the last time I did this

much exercise.

Definitely never worked out this much in privacy before.

I should have skipped breakfast.

Guess it's good that we biked.

We haven't actually been thinking about doing a triathlon.

She really does have a one -track mind.

Bunny!

Wait here, I got this.

Christmas Eve, and this is what we're doing.

Following your crush around, searching for a comic, getting ready to fight a

giant shark.

This is not how I was hoping to spend my holidays.

Well, you heard her say she liked my illustration.

Yeah, man, you're the next Pablo Picasso of aquatic monster comics.

Got it. Oh, hey.

Thank you.

Were you doing squats in there?

That took you forever.

Thought I'd give you a minute to catch your breath. I know you have trouble

your pacing.

Whoa. Shot fired.

You hear that?

Reminds me of the line in the comic, bells on shark tails ring.

Come on.

Let's go.

They said we'd only last six months.

We need to make a date.

What?

Where?

If I know anything about Cody, the comic book shop.

A comic book shop?

Can we not?

and forget this whole thing. Are you crazy?

Am I crazy? You're the one who sent the child into life and killed your grandpa.

What?

That wasn't... Santa, Josh.

I don't think there was actually a shark in the bay.

Of course not.

But Cody this morning... Mike's been playing pranks since he was a kid,

Remember in high school he convinced everybody there was a serial killer on

loose?

He's a prankster, all right?

He's just a prankster.

Even if you don't like comics, it's a must -read.

It's about these two extraterrestrials from different worlds that are at war,

but they fall in love.

Hashtag soulmate.

Right.

Where's Cody?

Be here any minute.

Would you care for some more eggnog?

What?

Josh! Cody!

The shark! It's real. I know.

We just saw an elf turn into a Christmas dinner.

Uncle Mike is missing. He's sanitized.

We need to call the police.

Good luck with that.

They're all out there busy setting up for the big parade tomorrow.

Why do his eyes look like that?

They glow like Rudolph's nose.

So we just need to stay away from the water and we'll be fine.

Yeah, you guys can just stay here.

No. What?

Santa Jaws is out there, putting more and more people in danger.

The boat parade.

Mom and Dad.

Look, this thing is threatening our town, and we need to step up and defend

Who would believe us, though?

Papa always told me that I need to stand up to my fears.

And he's right. If we don't stand up to our fears now, we'll never stop running.

Uncle Mike was the same way.

He wasn't afraid of anything.

He's a clown.

Look, if we stand up right now, together, we can't lose.

And I know we're young, but that doesn't mean that we can't do this.

Who's with me?

We're gonna need a plan of attack.

She's right. Are you serious?

That shark might be from a comic, but we're not superheroes.

We don't even have anything to fight it with.

Any more excuses?

This is it.

This isn't really a yacht.

No, it's not a yacht.

You didn't finish decorating.

You're really bad at decorating.

There's something right there. Can you reach it?

Is that Mike's hat?

was telling the truth papa mike we don't know that's not

possible it it can't be it's gonna be all right it's gonna be all right we

gotta uh the boys the boys the boys boys go go wait

we're not coming i gotta watch this door man i mean party people are gonna be

rolling through that door any second yeah because this party's really gonna

bumping yeah

What's this?

Some pen my grandpa gave me for Christmas.

That's Elvin.

It's German.

He who holds this pen holds great power.

With generosity and heart, it can only do good.

Beware of he who uses it for selfish gains.

Let's roll.

Come on. Let's go, Cody.

Hey, guys.

Do you want to stop somewhere for a booze? No!

Now, how are we going to get the shark over here?

Well, if you had read the comic, you would know that Santa Jaws is attracted

anything Christmas.

So all we need is something a little Christmas.

Josh, your phone.

Quick.

Turn the lights out on this shark.

Over there.

Set your dominant foot at the lead, line up the sight, and squeeze as you

breathe out.

Yes! He hit her.

Sucks my heart out.

I got this.

Dasher! And Lancer!

I thought you were a... Yeah, baseball's not harpoons.

Hey! Guys, cool it!

She's gone.

If some of you had it, she might still be here.

I didn't see you doing anything but playing with your sword. All right, back

Back up! Back up!

Fighting isn't going to change what happened.

I landed a direct hit and the arrow just bounced off.

She's too strong.

Did you see what happened when Georgia stabbed Santa Giles with a candy cane?

It actually hurt her.

You're right.

What if she isn't only attracted to things Christmas, but she can only be

by Christmas things? Things from her world.

No.

No, no, no, no, no. I know what you're thinking, but the answer is no.

What if Jenna's right?

Who's gonna believe us?

A shark came out of a comic book and can only be killed with Christmas weapons.

Think about it. That shark is way too strong and way too smart. We can't fight

her. One of us is next. We made her together, Steve.

I may have been the one who drew her, but you're the one who gave her super

intelligence. You gave her an insatiable appetite for human flesh.

So we will take her out.

Together.

All right.

We need some Christmas flair.

Well, there's... Decorations all around for the boat parade. Maybe we can make

some candy cane errands or something.

I've found to be something around here that's sharper goes bang.

Steve, Josh, scour the marina from her firepower. Jenna and I will dread what

we've got.

Let's go.

Cody, Josh!

Oi! Hey, call Josh when it's done.

Papa's not here either.

A note.

What? A note. A note.

Hey!

Let's put this fish on ice.

You're going to be throwing a pitcher for next season, huh?

I paid my dues.

How does it feel to go to the finals against Montclair Park and lose by one

Dude, what is your problem?

My problem? Yeah, you have some sort of chip on your shoulder. Oh, I wonder why

that would be.

You and your friends treat me and Cody like we don't exist.

When you're bored, we're chum. When have I ever gone on you, man? You and all

your jock friends treat us like nerds, like second -class citizens.

Mocking us?

Making our lives hell.

Treating us like rejects.

You're just a stereotype.

And you're not doing the same thing by reducing us to jocks.

Everyone is part stereotype.

Anyway, you're going to use your smarts to go off to some great college.

Become successful.

Half the dudes on my team aren't going to get scholarships.

Then this is as good as it gets.

All I know is what matters most is what happens at the bottom of the ninth.

The score is tied and the bases are loaded, and that's now.

What we do now is what counts.

I think we may have just bought ourselves another inning.

Where did you move here from originally?

Tucson, but before that, Houston.

The climate's actually better for training here.

I mean, how did you even start?

I guess I've always been fast.

My dad's been training me since I was little.

He pushes me, keeps me focused.

When I spray my ankle, he reads me track and field magazines every day for two

weeks while I was in physical therapy.

Sounds like he really believes in you.

He does.

But sometimes it feels like it's more his dream than it is mine.

Not that I'm ungrateful, it's just sometimes I just want to read comics all

afternoon. I read a pint of double chocolate fudge ice cream.

Drowned in chocolate syrup.

Exactly.

What's your favorite comic?

Mostly the ones that don't come to life.

I like The Human Fly the best.

I get a new issue every Tuesday if you'd want to borrow them.

Guys, look what we found.

Explosives. The kind that Papa used to kill boars at the camp.

Yeah, enough to level an elephant.

And for delivery, a little taste of cream.

Looks good.

Let's blow this fish out of the water.

This is where they go fishing, right?

Yeah.

I'm sure he would have come back here if he was looking for the shark.

Hey,

what are you doing?

Come on, Peter. We're going to hunt down that shark.

Are you crazy?

No. I love my children.

Yeah, I love them, too. Okay? But you're going to get yourself killed. That

shark attacked my family.

Caroline, we need to think about this logically.

All right? Cody wouldn't have gone at this alone.

So we need to think, where would he have gone to get help?

Do it again, Peter.

No, we've got to get out of here.

Honey, we can't help our boys if we don't stay safe.

This ain't safe.

You're right.

If we're going to find Cody, we need to stay alive.

Correct, Miss Chum?

Correct.

You have more cooking?

What? I have been all day.

Is that all you think about?

Food.

Guilty as charged.

She's coming in hot. Get into position.

Okay. We can do this, guys.

Ready?

Nice shot.

Dang it!

Wait, another before... No, no, no.

This is where Cody hangs out. This guy should know something.

Are you Clark?

Who wants to know?

We're Cody's parents.

Okay. Well, there is a shark attacking Port City. Where's Cody?

That is classified information.

Access granted.

Cody's at the marina with his friends. They think the shark from his comic book

came to life, and they're going to go try and fight it. You let a bunch of

fight a shark?

Well, I mean, they're with your oldest son.

What is wrong with you?

At least Josh is with me.

In Georgia, there's some sort of adult presence.

Let's get to that, Marina.

I'm so sorry.

I know that he was like family to you.

He was.

Is it a nightmare?

It's all my fault.

All because of some stupid wish.

This is not your fault. You didn't know.

That pin, it brought her to life.

What if we use it against her?

Josh, bring me my bag.

Ken, it's not here.

When was the last time you had it?

He didn't answer.

There could be too many people at the party. I highly doubt that's the case.

Well, if you know it's there and it can hurt the shark.

Let's go.

Wait, wait, wait, guys.

Who owned this car?

Someone's here.

Eggnog for the lady.

Oh, hi, guys.

Hey,

Clark.

Do you know my girlfriend Svetlana, who you haven't met?

I thought you said this guy was getting captive. Yeah, I thought you said your

girlfriend was from Russia.

She is. Svetlana. She flew in today.

Surprise. It's a Christmas miracle, huh?

Yeah. Hey, what part of Russia are you from?

Well, she doesn't speak English, right?

Well, you don't speak Russian.

Don't need to speak Russian.

Yep, online translation's kind of amazing.

I think I left my pen here.

Oh,

there's nothing back here. I mean, I just tied it up, so there's nothing.

Whose car is that out front?

That car?

It's Svetlana.

Her. Because she has amazing taste.

Flew in and bought a car and came and surprised me.

I need the pen, Clark.

What pen?

The pen in the box with the inscription.

Yeah, the one that kind of brought Santa Jaws to life? Yeah, that one.

Oh, the pen. That pen.

Papa's pen.

From earlier, yeah. You know, I put that in a safe place for you, and I will get

that. I'll be right back. I'll get that for you, and just stay here, stay put.

Right back.

They're not here.

Looks like some wild goose chase.

Is this a crossbow?

Yeah.

Is that a mace?

It's got to have a thing for medieval times or something.

It is a dangerous business walking out your door.

Where could they be?

You know, the whole town's a long water.

I just hope they had enough sense to get away from it.

What do you think the chances of that are?

Approaching zero.

Do you guys see that?

Yeah, he's not coming back.

Nope.

No, he's not.

He's making a run for it. Come on. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

No.

Drive.

She took the keys. What?

We drive along the highway, we check every dock, one by one, process of

elimination.

You took Papa!

And Mike.

You're a mess. Come on.

You got it?

Come on.

Give me the pen.

Really? Clark, we're not idiots.

The car, the girl, the cash.

Give it to me.

Just give it back.

You left the pen in my store.

Christmas is about giving, isn't it? It's called stealing.

Give us the pen, Clark.

Think of the possibilities.

Endless money.

Girls.

Yachts.

Clark. Clark, look at me.

This isn't you.

It's the pen. It's messing with your head or something.

Just give me the pen, please.

Get it to me.

You're just a kid.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Life is hard.

This is so easy.

I could have drawn Svetlana so she spoke English.

But then I'd have to talk to her.

What's that kind of pressure?

Haven't you ever heard the end? Justify the means!

Stay back!

Stay back!

Clark? I will drop this right in the water! Don't! It'll go down in the lake!

Clark! There are people's lives at stake. People are gonna die if you do

give me the... I don't care!

All right. All right. All right. We're back.

Stay!

Back! Oh, he's going to get away with it.

No, he's not.

Jenna. Jenna, stop. Jenna!

Jenna! Stop her!

Ryan Great White Shark is attacking this town. I got my father and brother -in

-law, and I can't find my children anywhere.

What? My son thinks I came alive from a comic book, but... Ma 'am, calm down.

What's he saying?

This line is for emergency... What's he saying?

I think he hung up.

Well, that ain't good.

So, kill her.

How am I supposed to do that, Gina?

You want me to drop X's over her eyes?

Slice her in half or something.

Why can't you draw her again? It might create another shark.

Crying.

Getting rid of her teeth.

No pen?

I don't know.

Try, uh, impaling her.

I like that idea.

Do you think it worked?

I think so.

She has a horn now.

Maybe Jenna was right. We should just stay away from the water.

Are you kidding me?

This thing is going after our family.

We need to get to Mom and Dad before she does.

Don't worry, honey.

We're going to find him. The last time I saw Cody, we were fighting. What if I

never see him again?

Don't talk like that, okay?

Don't think it. It's not going to be the last time. I promise.

I promise.

Mom! Dad!

I'm glad I lost you.

I'm worried about you too.

I'm so sorry I didn't believe you. That thing is a monster.

No.

I'm sorry.

This is all my fault.

I wish that thing into existence.

I don't know. I guess I was just angry.

What are you talking about, son?

I drew her and she came to life.

And now she's hunting everyone in our family down.

No. This is not your fault. All right?

Hey, this is classic global warming.

Non -indigenous species roaming into unfamiliar territories. It happens

You are not listening to me!

That is not a shark! That is Santa John!

It's Santa John!

John? Listen to him. What we need to do is we need to get inland and contact the

authorities. What does this look like to you?

Look a little familiar?

I know her! I made her!

That is her!

Now you can either help me, or I can do this myself!

You okay?

No.

Mike, Papa, all my friends, they're all gone.

I know, son. This thing is a force of nature.

Sometimes you just gotta let the police handle things. It's not our place.

Dad!

I know I can go off the handle sometimes, but I am the only one that

her.

But I need your help.

For Mike.

For Papa.

Help.

For Mike.

We fought too hard today to lose you boys again.

I've been with Cody all day.

He knows what we're up against.

We can't let him bite this thing by himself.

He needs our help.

I know.

Now, this thing is powerful, but it is not invincible.

You've always said you hurt it with some exploding ornament.

That's right. Yeah.

Well, if it can be hurt, it can be killed.

I'm thinking we build something like that.

And this could cause a massive amount of potential energy.

Pitching a baseball.

Zach, let's give the shark something real that you want.

Like a Christmas turkey?

For it to explode?

Don't even think about touching those turkeys.

The only thing we have left of Christmas.

Mom, we don't have a choice.

On the birthday of Christmas, my true love gave to me... Three French hens, a

little dove, and a partridge in a pear tree.

All we gotta do is get her coming this way.

Let these turkeys loose.

One gets in her mouth, aim and fire.

And... Bam.

Well, how do we get her over here?

I don't want your fire, Wayne.

Not just a matter of time.

Look!

Over there.

Santa Jaws is coming to town.

All right, lock it down.

I got eyes on her.

Come on, guys, hurry.

All right, we're in.

All right, grab the turkey. Come on. Yep.

All right, we're ready.

Now!

To the left!

To the left, guys. To the left.

One, two, three. Okay, good.

Now, lock it in.

Got it? Got it. All right, good.

Grab the turkey. Hurry up. I got it. I got it.

Wait for it. Wait for it!

It brought Santa Joss to life. It can kill her and bring them back.

It's not going to bring them back. Why don't you block me?

Just the pen, Cody.

Give me the pen.

This pen isn't going to do anything, Cody.

Papa gave that to me.

Christmas wish.

Give them back!

How, how, how you suffer, fish?

I got hit in the head with a snowball.

You guys are here?

Hey, Merry Christmas, Cody.

Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas.

Where you been, kiddo? We've been waiting on you to open presents.

Uh, yesterday was... The dinner went well. A ton of people showed up, but

Mike and Georgia saved the day. Yeah, we did. Fun.

It was like Christmas in the movies.

Yeah, well, you were geeking out on comics, little bro.

Yeah.

If you could say that.

Well, who wants my famous cinnamon roll?

I'll take three. Right here. Right here. I got them. I'll get them.

Well, thank you, Cody.

They're in the oven.

Don't burn yourself.

Cool.

Matching pajamas.

Cute, babe.

I think this is for you. Oh, here you go.

You're going to like that. Oh, yeah?

Oh, I almost forgot.

Forgot.

That's this.

You got it. Oh,

thank you.

A cranky D.

Yep, yep, yep. You broke the last one, son. Oh, man, you're so cool.

Huh?

Cody. From English.

Yeah, I never had a chance to welcome you to the neighborhood, so Merry

Christmas.

Thanks.

I actually think I have something of yours.

I'll trade you.

Well, I should... I should probably get back to my dad. I've got a new pair of

sneakers to unwrap.

Hey, there's a new ice cream spot that just opened up. Maybe we could check it

out together.

That would be fun, as long as they have double chocolate punch.

Cool.

That comic.

It was pretty killer.

You have no idea.

Thank you.
