NARRATOR: One time a year there's a marvelous night,

when enchantment and wonder spark and take flight.

Each home fills with joy on this grand holiday,

with hearts growing warm in a magical way.

The rooms are all covered with garlands and wreaths.

The mantel is ready, with stockings beneath.

Lights twinkle and glow and bells brightly chime.

The moment's arrived! It's here! Christmas time.

Three precious gifts lie under this tree.

What secrets they hold? Let's look, and we'll see.

The first tells a story for us all to hear,

about laughter and family and those we hold dear.

We love Christmas so much we want it to stay,

but what if we wished it was here every day?

Oh, some Christmas this turned out to be.

Gee, I don't know about you guys, but I don't ever want to do that again.

Huh?

Look! We made you breakfast, Uncle Donald.

Aw! Isn't that nice?

Hey, you want to open presents?

No way, Uncle Donald. We gotta wait for the family to get here.

Merry Christmas, everybody!

Merry Christmas, indeed!

Don't forget our Christmas kisses, Aunt Gertie.

Hey, what are they up to?

You boys are so wonderful!

That looks heavy!

ALL: Let us help you!

Why, isn't that sweet? Thank you, boys.

Ooh! Ham!

Uncle Donald, would you like to carve?

Something's up for sure.

Nothing better than all of us gathering together...

-...for a wonderful meal. -It's our most favorite part.

My feelings exactly.

How about some carols, Uncle Scrooge?

Why, boys, it's like you could read my mind.

Oh, no!

Man overboard!

(YELLING)

(GRUNTS) (SHIVERS)

Whoa!

DONALD: Why does this always happen to me? I don't understand.

NARRATOR: So, Christmas was meant to last just one day,

and maybe it's simply better that way.

It's a time to be treasured. It can't always be here,

but the feeling it gives us can last the whole year.

Now, this gift holds a story both wondrous and rare,

about a father and a son and the love that they share.

This Christmas, they'll learn before the night's through,

if we care for each other, our dreams can come true.

GOOFY: (SINGING) Hark, the hairy angels sing

Come on, Maxie! At least hum a few bars.

MAX: Dad, hurry up!

Deck the walls with cows and collies

Fa la-la la la la-la la la

The mailman comes at noon, Dad!

Hmm, let's see now.

Uh... Oh! How about one of them snazzy electrical recliners?

Yeah, Dad. Whatever.

Naw, don't want to turn into some highfalutin fancy-pants.

Yeah, yeah. Great, Dad. But Santa won't get our letter if we don't leave

now!

-(GASPS) -Whoa!

(YELLING)

(CAR HONKING)

Hold on, Dad! We're taking a shortcut.

Maybe we ought to slow her down before we break the sound barrier!

-What? -We're headed straight for the mall!

Great idea!

Whoa!

(ALL CLAMORING)

-Low bridge! -Really? Where? Ow!

Go on ahead and stop the mailman, son!

I'll be right behind you! Don't worry! I won't let you down!

'Scuse me!

-(WOMAN SCREAMS) -Oops!

Oh!

(GASPING)

Oops. Sorry.

You have to mail our letter to Santa!

Hey, get out of the road, kid!

(CHILDREN LAUGHING)

(GASPS) Ow!

Whoa! Wow!

Whoa!

Do you have anything bigger? I have an empty space right here.

(GASPS)

Ooo! I'll take it!

Phew.

(YELLS)

(SCREAMING)

But my dad's gonna be here any minute! Honest!

Sorry, kid.

-(GOOFY YELLING) -Gotta go.

(PANTING)

(SLOBBERING)

Special delivery for the North Pole. (CHUCKLES)

Oh, man.

You really think Santa will get the letter in time?

Sure as I'm standing here.

Whoa! Ow.

Slippery.

I gotta get it. I just gotta.

My very own, one-of-a-kind, carbon-fiber, torque-rod, snappy-flex,

tip-to-tail, rail-to-rail, wooden core, twin-directional snowboard!

Phew, that's a mouthful.

With adjustable forward-lean, high-backed, skid plate,

scooper-toe, step-in bindings!

Look at this. All nice and neat and ready for ol' Santy.

(MACHINE HUMMING)

(GRUNTING)

Merry Christmas Eve, Pete!

Why, if it ain't the Goofmaster himself.

Say, we got us some more work to do, Max,

or Santy's never gonna find our chimney...

(YELLING)

(THUDS)

(LAUGHING) Ain't that quaint.

The Goofbrain thinks there's a Santy Claus.

There isn't?

(LAUGHING)

Like father, like Goof.

Kid's got the Goof gene coursing through his bloodstream.

There is too a Santa! Whoa!

(GRUNTS)

Aw, now, son. Come here.

See, it's an urbane myth,

like that, "Locked Mess Monstrosity."

And the fella that brings the sweepstakes checks, see?

Well, think of it. An old guy in a red suit,

cruising the whole, entire world in one night.

Using reindeer what fly?

Why, it's practically impossible!

Look, kid. I've been around, see?

Been to all the foreign lands, Brooklyn included.

And I never seen, nor met a soul who's seen,

this Santy Claus fella.

Look, Maxie! I found the front door!

So long, neighbors.

Have a very merry Christmas.

(LAUGHING)

Oh, and a happy New Year.

(SINGING) Doh, doh, doh, doh, cows and collies

Di, di, di, di, di, doo, doo

Hey! How about giving your old man a hand?

What is it, Maxie?

Why, you look like Santy Claus put a lump of coal in your stocking.

I heard there isn't any Santa Claus.

Oh, who went and told you a silly thing like that?

-Mr. Pete. -Oh, that figures.

Son, of course there's a Santy!

Otherwise we'd have a lot of out-of-work elves running around.

You think?

Think? Heck, I'm sure.

You take it from me, son. Have I ever been wrong?

-Well... -Why, even a broken clock

is right two or three times a day.

And this time, I'm right!

Believe me. Santa won't let you down.

Do you really think he'll come?

Why, as sure as pigs fly!

Hey, Dad. What'd you ask for from Santa?

Oh, you know, just the usual.

What's that?

(WHISPERING) It's a surprise.

Now, plug her in and let the joy of Christmas shine!

(BULBS SHATTERING)

-(ELECTRICITY CRACKLING) -Wow!

Phew. Now that'll put the spirit of Christmas in you.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

'Course there's a Santa.

GOOFY: Believe me, Santa won't let you down.

An old guy, in a red suit,

cruising the whole, entire world in one night?

Using reindeer what fly?

Why, it's practically impossible!

Impossible! Impossible!

Hiya, Maxie! Wanna help?

Did you know that there were over two billion children in the world?

Hmm, no wonder I keep tripping over roller skates.

That means Santa would have to make like 800 visits a second,

not including bathroom breaks.

Well, I guess ol' Santy's been at it so long,

he figured out all the shortcuts.

(STRUGGLING)

Oh!

(CHUCKLES) Looks like it's gonna be a white Christmas after all!

Dad! This is serious!

Oh, I know, son, but...

(SNIFFING)

Gosh, something sure smells mighty tasty!

(YELLING)

Ah...

But how can a reindeer fly?

Oh, that's easy. It's those antlers. They...

Well, you know, with the wind and all...

That there creates lift, and...

Hot, hot, hot, hot! Hot, hot!

Still, it's a lot of work for one guy.

And that's why we leave him these cookies

for a quick pick-me-up, up... Whoa!

But it just doesn't quite make sense, Dad.

Mmm, chestnuts.

(GOOFY HUMMING)

Where are we going, Dad?

Going to share the joy of Christmas with those

a little less fortunate.

Well, shouldn't Santa be doing this?

Oh, Santy's on a very tight schedule this time of year,

so we're giving him a helping hand.

Whoa!

(CHUCKLES) Looks like l might need one, too.

(LAUGHING)

(IMITATING CAR ENGINES)

Hey.

Wanna play toy "carses"?

I only gots two, but you can have one.

Santa gave me this one last year.

This year I hope he's gonna give me another one.

You know, kid, I ain't so sure there is such a thing as...

Christmas Eve dinner is served!

Whoa!

(GRUNTS)

(LAUGHING)

Oh!

-MAN: (CHUCKLES) Oh, my! -CHILDREN: Wow!

-Mr. Goofy, that's incredible! -That was like magic!

Gosh! (CHUCKLES)

Christmas magic.

-Thank you so much. -With things being so tight this year,

well, without you, we wouldn't have...

Aw, don't mention it. (CHUCKLES)

You'd do the same for me.

But have you ever really actually seen Santa?

He's got a big white beard.

But have you ever actually seen him in person?

-Where? -(RUSTLING)

Ho, ho, ho!

-Merry Christmas! -Santa!

(GASPS) Santa?

-Santa! -You made it!

MAX: Did you get my letter?

It's Santa!

Who wants to be the first to sit on Santy's lap?

-Me, me, me! Here! -Santa, me!

Santa, me! Pick me!

I'm so glad you came! Wow!

I almost didn't believe anymore.

But now...

Phew.

Everything's okay.

So, I want my very own one-of-a-kind, carbon-fiber,

torque-rod, snappy-flex, tip-to-tail, rail-to-rail, twin-directional snowboard.

Uh, please.

(LAUGHING)

Dad?

Oh...

You tricked me! How could you?

Uh... Ho, ho...

Santy's got a little problem with one of his elves,

but he'll be right back...

Gosh, Maxie, I'm real sorry.

I was just trying to make those kids happy.

Remember the old Goof tradition

of eating one of Santy's cookies before bedtime?

What's the point?

And remember how we always open just one present

on Christmas Eve?

(HIGH-PITCHED) Hiya, Maxie!

(NORMAL VOICE) Why, looky here. It's your ol' stuffed bear.

-Remember what you named him? -Old Stuffed Bear.

Remember who gave him to you?

Yeah. Santa.

But that's when I was little.

(SINGING) Oh, you better watch out You better not cry

You better not pout I'm a-telling you why

Santy Claus is coming to town

-No, he's not! -(HIGH-PITCHED) Trust me, Max.

You just gotta believe. Santy's real.

-No, he's not! -(NORMAL VOICE) Yes, he is!

No, he's not!

(CLATTERING)

I promise.

Then prove it!

When Santy shows up, we'll be right here to greet him.

And then I'll snap a picture of him

so you'll always have the photographic evidence.

(SCOFFS) Yeah. If you don't fall off the roof first.

Oh, I won't fall off the roof, Maxie.

You just watch.

(SLEIGH BELLS RINGING)

Santy Claus is coming to town!

Oh!

Bright!

(DOG BARKING)

Whoa!

Ooh!

Told you you'd fall off the roof.

I didn't fall off the roof. Whoa!

Where's Santy? I didn't miss him, did I?

-Nope. -Then where is he?

I don't know about you, but I'm cold and tired.

And Santa Claus is not coming.

(SNIFFLING)

(SNEEZES)

(CREAKING)

Why doesn't he just grow up and face the facts?

"Don't forget

"Max."

Aw, Dad.

GOOFY: Max! Wake up! Look, son!

Look! It's him! It really is!

Do you see him, Maxie? Do you? Huh? Huh? Do you?

Yoo-hoo! Santy! Over here!

Oh, I almost forgot.

Smile, Santy!

-Dad, the lens cap! -Oops!

I'll get it right this time for sure.

(POLICE SIRENS WAILING)

Come down from the roof with your hands up.

We have you surrounded.

What in the name of Pete is going on here, for Pete's sake?

Maybe he's running a little late?

Whoa!

Dad! Dad!

Are you okay?

You were right about everything.

I even fell off the roof.

Hey, Dad, it's okay.

So Santa didn't show. No biggie.

Well, since he's not coming, at least we can eat all his cookies.

I'm not hungry.

Hey, Dad.

Here's something from me! Open her up.

Maybe later.

(SINGING) Oh, you better watch out You better not cry

You better not pout I'm telling you why

'Cause Santa Claus is coming to town

(STUTTERING) Santy!

Ho, ho, (CLEARS THROAT) ho.

Merry Christmas!

Santy! I'm so happy you came!

Gosh. I thought you'd be taller.

And you look trimmer than you do in your pictures.

Oh, well, you know, a camera adds 50 pounds.

You have to meet my boy Maxie!

Oh, yeah. I'd love to, but I gotta get going.

TWo billion kids, 823 a second.

Very tight schedule.

Wait, Santy! He's around here somewheres.

Wait! Santy!

Santy!

(GASPS)

-Maxie? -Hi, Dad.

What are you doing dressed up like Santy Claus?

I just wanted to make you happy, like you did for our neighbors.

Oh, Maxie, I might have let you down,

but you sure didn't let me down.

(SLEIGH BELLS RINGING)

Could it be? Do you think?

Gosh, it sure looks like

-Santa Claus! -Santa Claus?

I believe it is.

Wow. My very own, one-of-a-kind, carbon-fiber, torque-rod, snappy-flex,

tip-to-tail, rail-to-rail, wood core, torsionally stiff,

twin-directional snowboard!

(SNIFFS)

Thanks, Santa.

What's all the commotion out here?

If it's another robber, I'm gonna get him...

Ooh! Santa?

Well, hey! Hey, Santa!

I believed in you all along!

For real and for true! So where are my presents?

SANTA CLAUS: Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!

But what about my squirty gun and my yo-yo?

I know you can hear me!

Santa didn't forget your gift, did he?

Every year I ask or the same gift, and every year, I get it.

-What's that? -Your happiness.

Uh-oh.

What is it, son?

(CHUCKLES) Got you the same thing.

Merry Christmas, Dad.

Merry Christmas, Max.

Where are you going?

l'm gonna go share my new present with little Jimmy next door.

That's my boy.

(LAUGHING)

NARRATOR: So, Christmas is found in the way that we live.

Not what we receive, but what we can give.

Now the last present here may seem rather small,

not fancy or flashy, or special at all.

But this gift can be given by the rich or the poor.

It's a gift of the heart, and it means so much more.

Thanks, Joe! Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, George. You working tonight?

Not tonight! It's Christmas Eve!

There it is, Pluto,

the perfect gift to go with Minnie's watch.

Well, I'm a little short right now,

but you and I are gonna make lots of tips today.

-Aren't we, fella? -Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! (PANTING)

We'll stop by right after work and pick it up.

Come on. Let's get this tree over to Minnie's.

MINNIE: Oh, Figaro, there's nothing but bills!

How am I ever going to afford to get Mickey a present?

(SHRIEKS)

You sure I'm not eating you out of house and home?

'Course not, silly. I have plenty.

Ta-da!

Aw, for me?

Uh-huh! (GIGGLES)

You wouldn't happen to have the time, would you, Minnie?

-Well, let's see. It's... -Gosh.

Sure is a beautiful watch!

MINNIE: (SIGHS) My one heirloom.

I'll bet it'd look real nice

with a gold chain around your pretty neck.

-MINNIE: Aw, Mickey. -(MICKEY CHUCKLES)

Oh, my goodness! I've gotta go to work!

Aw, merry-shmerry. I'll be merry when I've sold all those 10-footers!

Why are you standing there with your face hanging out?

Get to work!

Okay, fella. You know what to do.

Shake a leg!

PETE: Quit slacking over there! There's a customer waiting!

Oh, do be careful of the paint.

-Yes, ma'am! -Such a nice young man.

Here's a little something for you.

Gosh, I don't expect anything. I'm just glad to help.

Oh, boy! Thank you, ma'am.

Thank you!

Hot dog! Looks like I'll finally be able to get Minnie that chain for her watch.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Uh, we'd like to buy a tree...

Did I hear you folks are looking for a tree?

Boy, oh, boy! Is this your lucky day! (CHUCKLES)

This here's what you folks need. Ten feet of towering Nova Scotia pine.

Wow. It's bigger than our house.

Well, it's a little more than we need.

Well, missus, I gotta be honest with you.

This is all I got left on the lot!

The others have been "reservated" in advance.

You don't want these kids going without a tree, now, do you?

(COUGHING)

We are gonna get a tree, aren't we, Daddy?

Um, this is all we have.

Well, that'll be just fine (CHUCKLES) for a down payment.

I'll set you up with a nice installment plan.

All's you gotta do is sign here!

(SINGSONG) We're gonna get a tree

We're gonna get a tree

Get your foot off the brake, Pops. The kids are waiting.

MICKEY: Hey! How about this tree?

I found it out back.

It hasn't been "reservated." (GULPS)

Wow!

It's beautiful.

It's perfect!

We'll take it.

(GROWLS)

MAN: Merry Christmas! And thank you again.

-Thanks a lot! -Merry Christmas!

-(GROWLING) -So long! Merry...

Christmas.

I had them on the hook for a 10-foot tree!

(CHUCKLES MEEKLY)

I'm taking what I would have made off of that tree out of your pay!

(GROWLING)

But I...

(BARKING)

-Whoa! -Now get off of my lot!

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(SCOFFS) Chumps.

(SNIFFING)

Hmm, somebody's burning their ham.

(YELLING)

A little warm! It's hot!

(GRUNTING)

(SHRIEKING)

Incoming!

(GRUNTS)

-Not my 10-footers! (SOBBING) -(SIRENS WAILING)

ANNOUNCER: Attention, holiday shoppers!

Don't forget to bring all your last-minute purchases

to our gift-wrapping department.

Oh, I've never seen it so busy.

Wow, Minnie, who made you Santa's number-one helper?

Oh, I really want to get Mickey something special this year.

Without that Christmas bonus, I'm sunk!

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Hello? Okey-dokey. Bye.

Mr. Mortimer wants to see you in his office, right away.

(GASPS) Oh, my Christmas bonus!

-Ginnie! -Uh, that's Minnie.

Right. I've been making a list and checking it twice,

and I found that you have been Santa's best little helper this season!

Your hard work is about to be rewarded.

Close your eyes and hold out your hands.

Oh, Mr. Mortimer, I can't thank you enough.

Yes, I know. Now don't interrupt.

-Penny... -That's Minnie.

Whatever. On behalf of Mortimer's Department Store,

it gives me great pleasure to present you with your

Christmas bonus!

-(MINNIE GRUNTS) -(THUDS)

A fruitcake?

No need to thank me.

The expression on your face is thanks enough. (CHUCKLES)

And now, scoot along.

Back to the gift-wrapping department, where you belong.

Oh, and, Winnie. Merry Christmas!

Oh, Mickey.

How am I ever going to get your present now?

There's just gotta be a way to get Minnie's present by 5:00.

(PLAYING)

You got any ideas, fella?

(WHIMPERING)

Don't worry, boy. We'll come up with something.

We just gotta.

(PLAYING)

Do you think the band will ever show up?

I don't know.

They're putting out a fire at the Crazy Pete Tree Lot.

Just went up like a Roman candle.

FIREFIGHTER: Uh, Chief?

Looks like the toy drive's a big fat bust.

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Listen! That music!

(GASPS) Come on!

(GRUNTS)

Hmm?

MICKEY: Where we going, fellas? FIRE CHIEF: A concert in the park.

Oh, look, bub. We're desperate.

We need music for the toy drive, and you're our only hope!

I don't have time, Chief. I gotta get a gift for my girl.

Look, pally, don't do it for us.

-Do it for the kids. -But I...

Look, son. To these kids,

the only difference between a broken heart and a smile is you!

You're on! Break a leg, pal.

(INDISTINCT WHISPERING)

Look, I'm really sorry, but I can't stay.

I got some Christmas shopping to do, you know, and...

Gosh.

(PLAYING)

(TROMBONE PLAYING)

The band is back!

FIREFIGHTER: Must have been a hot one at Crazy Pete's.

(ALL CHEERING)

Well, guess I'll be showing up at Minnie's empty-handed.

That was terrific!

(CHUCKLES) Thanks to you, this was our best toy drive ever!

You and that harmonica sure make a great team.

Yup. She's worth her weight in gold, all right! (CHUCKLES)

Holy cow! That's it!

We've still got two minutes to get to the shop!

-Come on, Pluto! -(BARKING)

-Thanks, fellas! -Goodbye!

-FIREFIGHTER: Thanks again! -WOMAN: Merry Christmas!

(HORN HONKING)

(YAWNING)

Sorry!

MICKEY: Hey! What's going on?

(HORN HONKING)

Whoa!

(WHIMPERS)

This is our stop!

(BOTH GRUNT)

Oh, look! There's the shop.

(BELL TINKLING)

Oh, excuse me, sir.

I was just hoping to trade this for a gift for my girl.

Well, sorry, son. That harmonica isn't worth much.

Well, merry Christmas.

You're worth a lot to me, old friend.

(PLAYING)

(HOWLING)

(GROANS)

Say, maybe that harmonica is worth something after all.

Come on in. Come on in.

(PLUTO BARKING)

-(PANTING) -(MEOWS)

MICKEY: Can't wait to open your present, can you, boy?

(CHUCKLES) I know just how you feel.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Oh! I love Christmas so much!

Say, Mickey, why don't you play some music?

(LAUGHS)

Isn't it time we were opening our presents?

And, speaking of time, what time is it?

Well, I think it's time for you to open your gift.

Oh! A case for my harmonica.

Oh, my! A chain for my watch.

Oh, Mickey, it's beautiful.

But I traded my watch to get you that case.

And I traded my harmonica to get a chain for your watch.

Oh, Mickey! I can't believe you gave up what means the most to you for me.

Oh, Minnie. You're all the music I'll ever need.

(CHUCKLES)

(YAWNS)

(SIGHS)

Merry Christmas, Mickey.

Merry Christmas, Minnie.

MINNIE: Want some fruitcake? (GIGGLES)

NARRATOR: A gift from the heart is cherished and true.

A present is best when love's given, too.

So, in the end, it's love that's the reason

that Christmas is more than a gift-giving season.

It's a time with our loved ones to show that we care,

when families and neighbors come together to share.

So, this Christmas season, let us all do our parts,

to keep Christmas spirit alive in our hearts.

(SINGING) What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way

(HOWLS)

Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh

Hey Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way

Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh

-CHORUS: One-horse open sleigh -One-horse open sleigh

One-horse open
