Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:43,210 --> 00:00:47,113
- Clementine? What are
you doing up here?
2
00:00:48,630 --> 00:00:51,489
- I wanted to get a better
look at the Northern Lights,
3
00:00:51,491 --> 00:00:53,172
to see how bad
things really are.
4
00:00:53,174 --> 00:00:55,698
- Worse than you can imagine.
5
00:00:55,700 --> 00:00:58,088
(Electricity crackling)
6
00:01:00,276 --> 00:01:03,709
I'm afraid Christmas
is in serious trouble.
7
00:01:03,711 --> 00:01:05,930
- So, what can we do?
8
00:01:05,932 --> 00:01:10,308
- When you figure that out,
be sure and let me know.
9
00:01:26,969 --> 00:01:29,729
- Kevin, you're the man
of the house.
10
00:01:29,731 --> 00:01:32,556
Are these for the Christmas
lights or the router?
11
00:01:32,558 --> 00:01:35,721
- Actually, they're what's
left of your old hairdryer.
12
00:01:35,724 --> 00:01:39,055
I saw a video on Edison.
I got inspired.
13
00:01:39,057 --> 00:01:41,242
- OK, that's the last time
I skimp on movers.
14
00:01:41,244 --> 00:01:42,791
Everything is mislabelled!
15
00:01:42,793 --> 00:01:44,912
Oh! Nice T-rex!
16
00:01:44,914 --> 00:01:48,682
- It's a reindeer, but if
you
see a T-rex, let's go with
that.
17
00:01:48,684 --> 00:01:50,029
- Oh, pragmatic artist.
18
00:01:50,030 --> 00:01:52,351
Guess you got the best
of both parents.
19
00:01:52,353 --> 00:01:54,504
Oh, honey!
We gotta leave in 10
minutes!
20
00:01:54,506 --> 00:01:56,289
You're gonna be late for school.
21
00:01:56,291 --> 00:01:58,241
- I'm not sure
anybody would notice.
22
00:01:58,243 --> 00:01:59,588
- Oh, Kev, come on!
23
00:01:59,590 --> 00:02:01,843
Look, I know one of
the hardest things to do
24
00:02:01,845 --> 00:02:03,728
is to fit into a new school,
25
00:02:03,730 --> 00:02:05,580
but it just takes
time, you'll see.
26
00:02:05,582 --> 00:02:07,262
(Cell chiming)
27
00:02:07,264 --> 00:02:08,778
Oh, that's my editor.
28
00:02:08,780 --> 00:02:11,538
He wants to see me
in the office. Come on!
29
00:02:11,540 --> 00:02:14,905
- Probably just to tell you
you're his awesomest
reporter.
30
00:02:14,907 --> 00:02:15,947
(Chuckling)
31
00:02:15,950 --> 00:02:17,294
- You're awesome!
32
00:02:17,297 --> 00:02:19,684
You've always been
my biggest fan. Thank you.
33
00:02:19,686 --> 00:02:22,546
- Mom, what if Santa looks
for us at the old house
34
00:02:22,548 --> 00:02:25,373
and all he sees are empty rooms?
35
00:02:25,375 --> 00:02:27,527
- Honey, if he can
deliver a billion presents
36
00:02:27,529 --> 00:02:28,672
in a single night,
37
00:02:28,674 --> 00:02:30,187
he's gotta have
some sort of system
38
00:02:30,189 --> 00:02:32,207
that can track all
of us, don't you think?
39
00:02:32,209 --> 00:02:33,924
(Chuckling)
40
00:02:33,926 --> 00:02:37,491
Come on, let's go.
41
00:02:37,493 --> 00:02:39,848
How is it in the making-
friends department, huh?
42
00:02:39,850 --> 00:02:41,026
- Tommy Chan said sorry
43
00:02:41,028 --> 00:02:43,181
when he tripped
on my backpack yesterday.
44
00:02:43,183 --> 00:02:44,831
- See? That's
something, right?
45
00:02:44,833 --> 00:02:46,546
- Seriously?
46
00:02:46,548 --> 00:02:51,697
- OK, maybe not, but you've
got to keep trying, OK?
47
00:02:51,699 --> 00:02:53,650
Oh, I have an idea!
48
00:02:53,652 --> 00:02:56,949
Why don't you think about
maybe joining a team or a
club
49
00:02:56,951 --> 00:02:58,328
or something like that?
50
00:02:58,330 --> 00:03:00,313
- Well, I was thinking
of starting, like,
51
00:03:00,315 --> 00:03:01,459
a Christmas committee
52
00:03:01,461 --> 00:03:03,545
to put up more lights
and stuff at school.
53
00:03:03,547 --> 00:03:05,533
- That's a great idea!
54
00:03:05,535 --> 00:03:07,214
Come on!
55
00:03:11,559 --> 00:03:13,173
(Child squealing)
56
00:03:13,175 --> 00:03:16,068
- (Kevin): Lights and
decorations tonight!
Promise?
57
00:03:16,070 --> 00:03:19,771
- Promise, if we have to
tear
through every box in the
house.
58
00:03:19,773 --> 00:03:22,833
- Great, 'cause the only
time
you see green and red
59
00:03:22,835 --> 00:03:23,911
around this place
60
00:03:23,913 --> 00:03:26,201
is when the 6th graders
dissect frogs.
61
00:03:26,203 --> 00:03:29,062
- Eww! Gross!
But I get the point.
62
00:03:32,396 --> 00:03:33,774
(Bell ringing)
63
00:03:38,152 --> 00:03:40,001
- Top of the mornin', Kev!
64
00:03:40,003 --> 00:03:41,315
- Hey!
65
00:03:43,976 --> 00:03:45,793
- Who rides a bike
in the winter?
66
00:03:45,795 --> 00:03:47,643
- Mom, this is
my teacher, Mr. Wilson.
67
00:03:47,645 --> 00:03:49,966
- Hi, I'm Ryan.
68
00:03:49,968 --> 00:03:54,106
- Chelsea! I didn't realize
Kevin's teacher was Irish.
69
00:03:54,108 --> 00:03:55,217
- Oh, I'm not, actually.
70
00:03:55,219 --> 00:03:57,809
I just like to keep
the kids on their toes!
71
00:03:57,811 --> 00:03:58,516
(Both chuckling)
72
00:03:58,518 --> 00:04:00,165
Nice to meet you.
73
00:04:00,167 --> 00:04:01,310
- Yeah!
74
00:04:01,312 --> 00:04:04,643
Your teacher is unique.
75
00:04:04,645 --> 00:04:06,055
- Yeah! I like him.
76
00:04:06,057 --> 00:04:08,783
He gets you to
see things differently.
77
00:04:08,785 --> 00:04:11,206
- Kiss for Mom?
78
00:04:11,208 --> 00:04:13,900
No? I love you!
79
00:04:16,392 --> 00:04:20,127
Come on, buddy.
Talk to somebody.
80
00:04:30,294 --> 00:04:31,673
(Telephone ringing)
81
00:04:31,675 --> 00:04:33,559
- Uh, better make room
by the crossword.
82
00:04:33,561 --> 00:04:36,722
There's something strange
going
on with the Northern Lights.
83
00:04:36,724 --> 00:04:38,002
- Morning, Trevor!
84
00:04:38,004 --> 00:04:39,011
- Morning.
85
00:04:39,013 --> 00:04:40,291
- Hey, Chuck!
86
00:04:40,293 --> 00:04:42,209
Nice piece on the bus strike!
87
00:04:42,211 --> 00:04:43,488
- Thanks, Chelsea!
88
00:04:43,490 --> 00:04:44,498
- Yeah!
89
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:46,047
- Hey, you want some eggnog?
90
00:04:46,049 --> 00:04:48,875
- No, actually, eggnog and I
are not friends, so you
enjoy!
91
00:04:48,877 --> 00:04:49,985
- Right choice!
92
00:04:49,988 --> 00:04:51,837
Avoiding Chuck
in Christmas-party mode
93
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,665
is the best advice this
advice
columnist could give you.
94
00:04:54,667 --> 00:04:57,323
- Listen, maybe you
and I could have lunch
today?
95
00:04:57,325 --> 00:05:00,050
- If that means joining you
at your desk for a sandwich
96
00:05:00,052 --> 00:05:02,037
from the vending
machine, no thanks!
97
00:05:02,039 --> 00:05:04,056
- I'm sorry.
New-kid syndrome!
98
00:05:04,058 --> 00:05:06,682
I feel like I have to prove
myself to the higher-ups.
99
00:05:06,684 --> 00:05:08,331
- Well, here's your chance!
- Oh!
100
00:05:08,334 --> 00:05:09,611
- Morning, Chelsea!
101
00:05:09,613 --> 00:05:11,091
- I was just coming to see you!
102
00:05:11,093 --> 00:05:12,674
- Good, good! Walk with me.
- OK.
103
00:05:12,676 --> 00:05:14,391
- I've decided to
shake things up
104
00:05:14,393 --> 00:05:16,512
and try you out on
the "City Beat" column.
105
00:05:16,514 --> 00:05:18,195
- Really? Oh,
I won't let you down!
106
00:05:18,197 --> 00:05:20,315
- I know! Back in Wisconsin,
you were the one
107
00:05:20,317 --> 00:05:22,099
who broke the story
on the wholesaler
108
00:05:22,101 --> 00:05:24,792
who was selling cheap
cheddar
as gourmet gouda, right?
109
00:05:24,794 --> 00:05:27,013
- Yeah, well, I have
a nose for news,
110
00:05:27,015 --> 00:05:29,067
and that didn't smell right.
111
00:05:29,069 --> 00:05:32,030
- Put that wit and tenacity
in
your column, and you'll do
fine.
112
00:05:32,032 --> 00:05:33,274
Your first assignment.
113
00:05:33,276 --> 00:05:35,463
The town canceled the
Christmas-tree lighting
114
00:05:35,465 --> 00:05:36,439
in Greenwood Park
115
00:05:36,441 --> 00:05:37,583
to save a few bucks.
116
00:05:37,585 --> 00:05:38,964
Think you can you handle
117
00:05:38,966 --> 00:05:41,454
a "politician
turned Scrooge" story?
118
00:05:41,456 --> 00:05:43,407
- Yeah, of course!
Um, should I...
119
00:05:44,451 --> 00:05:46,067
OK!
120
00:05:46,069 --> 00:05:47,648
(Scoffing)
121
00:05:47,650 --> 00:05:49,669
(School bell ringing)
122
00:06:08,183 --> 00:06:09,327
- Mr. Finster?
- Yes!
123
00:06:09,329 --> 00:06:11,010
- Chelsea Hastings
from The Examiner.
124
00:06:11,012 --> 00:06:13,231
I called you about the
tree-lighting ceremony.
125
00:06:13,233 --> 00:06:15,285
- I'm sorry, we're
closed for the holidays.
126
00:06:15,287 --> 00:06:18,146
- Doesn't the public deserve
to know why it was
canceled?
127
00:06:18,148 --> 00:06:19,594
- Ms. Hastings, right?
- Yeah.
128
00:06:19,596 --> 00:06:22,219
- The ceremony's expensive.
Power, labour, liability.
129
00:06:22,221 --> 00:06:23,465
The mayor made a decision.
130
00:06:23,467 --> 00:06:24,980
- It's a tradition around here!
131
00:06:24,982 --> 00:06:27,371
- A tradition that seems
to have been forgotten.
132
00:06:27,373 --> 00:06:28,648
If you have any questions,
133
00:06:28,650 --> 00:06:30,063
talk to the mayor's office...
134
00:06:30,065 --> 00:06:31,511
or the planning commission!
135
00:06:31,513 --> 00:06:33,899
- What do they have to do
with the tree lighting?
136
00:06:33,901 --> 00:06:35,314
- More than you might think,
137
00:06:35,316 --> 00:06:37,031
but you didn't hear it from me!
138
00:06:39,321 --> 00:06:40,632
(Bird chirping)
139
00:06:40,634 --> 00:06:43,965
- Yes, he said
the planning commission,
140
00:06:43,967 --> 00:06:46,153
which, of course,
is conveniently closed
141
00:06:46,155 --> 00:06:47,197
for the holidays.
142
00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:48,628
I'm telling you, Jasmine,
143
00:06:48,630 --> 00:06:51,391
there's more to this story
than meets the eye.
144
00:06:51,393 --> 00:06:54,452
Mm-hmm! Listen, I gotta go.
I gotta pick up my kid.
145
00:06:54,454 --> 00:06:55,751
I'll call you later.
146
00:06:57,017 --> 00:07:00,510
- (Ryan): So, to sum up
from the textbook,
147
00:07:00,512 --> 00:07:03,439
"fractions are
numerical quantities,
148
00:07:03,441 --> 00:07:06,768
"when added together,
comprise the whole."
149
00:07:06,770 --> 00:07:08,965
Confused?
150
00:07:08,967 --> 00:07:09,964
I know I am.
151
00:07:09,965 --> 00:07:10,962
(All chuckling)
152
00:07:10,964 --> 00:07:12,261
All right, let's see
153
00:07:12,263 --> 00:07:14,291
if we can make this
a little clearer.
154
00:07:14,293 --> 00:07:15,556
(Sighing)
155
00:07:15,558 --> 00:07:20,581
Suppose we took these
scissors to this tie
156
00:07:20,583 --> 00:07:24,710
and made the tie
a fraction of its length.
157
00:07:24,712 --> 00:07:28,104
(Children laughing)
158
00:07:28,106 --> 00:07:30,213
I'd say that's
about half, right?
159
00:07:30,215 --> 00:07:33,995
So, if I took it and cut
right here, it would be...
160
00:07:33,997 --> 00:07:35,635
All together now!
161
00:07:35,637 --> 00:07:37,208
- (Children):
One fourth!
162
00:07:37,210 --> 00:07:39,584
- By George,
I think they've got it!
163
00:07:39,586 --> 00:07:42,496
(School bell ringing
and children laughing)
164
00:07:42,498 --> 00:07:44,136
All right, so, remember,
165
00:07:44,138 --> 00:07:46,647
Christmas vacation
starts next week,
166
00:07:46,649 --> 00:07:50,697
so you have exactly 2 days
to pick your holiday
project.
167
00:07:50,699 --> 00:07:53,206
It can be an experiment
or a paper
168
00:07:53,208 --> 00:07:55,282
or a plan to change the world!
169
00:07:55,284 --> 00:07:57,859
Think bold!
Think big, people!
170
00:07:58,931 --> 00:08:00,871
Hey! Nice to see you again.
171
00:08:00,873 --> 00:08:04,888
- Thanks! That was an
interesting demonstration.
172
00:08:04,890 --> 00:08:07,264
- Yeah, well, anything
to get the point across.
173
00:08:07,266 --> 00:08:09,540
- What is the point of
the holiday project?
174
00:08:09,542 --> 00:08:12,519
- My mom's a reporter.
She was born to ask
questions.
175
00:08:12,521 --> 00:08:14,896
- It's OK. The point
of the project
176
00:08:14,898 --> 00:08:16,737
is to teach the kids
creative thinking.
177
00:08:16,739 --> 00:08:19,213
- Well, I think your
creative approach to math
178
00:08:19,215 --> 00:08:22,025
has turned your $20 tie into
a penny worth of scraps.
179
00:08:22,027 --> 00:08:25,740
- Well, you obviously don't
write for the style section,
180
00:08:25,742 --> 00:08:26,978
'cause it was a $6 tie!
181
00:08:26,980 --> 00:08:29,120
- Oh!
182
00:08:36,819 --> 00:08:38,894
Tell me it went better today.
183
00:08:38,896 --> 00:08:41,236
- Today was better.
- Really?
184
00:08:41,238 --> 00:08:43,579
- No! But you told
me what to say.
185
00:08:43,581 --> 00:08:44,952
- Spill it.
186
00:08:44,954 --> 00:08:46,190
- OK.
187
00:08:46,192 --> 00:08:48,165
This reindeer sweater, bad idea.
188
00:08:48,167 --> 00:08:50,273
(♪ Choir singing
The First Noel on radio ♪
189
00:08:50,275 --> 00:08:53,018
I also heard a nasty rumour
from the lunch lady
190
00:08:53,020 --> 00:08:55,829
that the town's
tree-lighting
ceremony was canceled!
191
00:08:55,831 --> 00:08:58,641
- Yeah, I'm actually writing
an article about it.
192
00:08:58,643 --> 00:09:00,147
I was gonna tell you today.
193
00:09:00,149 --> 00:09:02,390
- So it's true?
194
00:09:02,392 --> 00:09:04,800
Remember back home,
195
00:09:04,802 --> 00:09:07,210
the tree-lighting ceremony
in Nelson Square?
196
00:09:07,212 --> 00:09:10,021
Practically the whole
town got together!
197
00:09:10,023 --> 00:09:11,259
- Yeah.
198
00:09:11,261 --> 00:09:13,937
- I really miss all that.
199
00:09:13,939 --> 00:09:15,476
- Yeah, I know, buddy.
200
00:09:15,478 --> 00:09:16,448
Me too.
201
00:09:16,450 --> 00:09:17,652
But listen,
202
00:09:17,654 --> 00:09:20,463
uh, you know, this place
is into Christmas.
203
00:09:20,465 --> 00:09:21,870
I mean, hey, look!
204
00:09:21,872 --> 00:09:24,615
Look at that inflatable
reindeer right there, right?
205
00:09:24,617 --> 00:09:27,393
He's giving 20% off
for the holidays, huh?
206
00:09:27,395 --> 00:09:29,333
- Nice try.
207
00:09:34,288 --> 00:09:37,769
- Honey, I'm sorry we
couldn't
find the box of decorations,
208
00:09:37,771 --> 00:09:39,943
but we'll keep
looking tomorrow, OK?
209
00:09:39,945 --> 00:09:42,587
- It's OK.
Good night, Mom!
210
00:09:42,589 --> 00:09:43,859
- Good night, honey.
211
00:09:43,861 --> 00:09:51,796
Sleep tight!
212
00:10:16,260 --> 00:10:20,075
- Now, that was Christmas!
213
00:10:27,406 --> 00:10:29,847
- Clementine!
There you are!
214
00:10:29,849 --> 00:10:32,325
I've been looking
all over for you!
215
00:10:32,327 --> 00:10:33,864
- I'm really worried, Mom.
216
00:10:33,866 --> 00:10:36,810
Things are way worse
than people realize.
217
00:10:36,812 --> 00:10:38,484
Just look at the ornaments!
218
00:10:38,486 --> 00:10:41,261
There's one for every kid
in the world, right?
219
00:10:41,263 --> 00:10:44,441
So we should easily be able
to read by their glow!
220
00:10:44,443 --> 00:10:46,149
But they're totally dim!
221
00:10:46,151 --> 00:10:49,495
- I have to admit,
I've never seen it so dark.
222
00:10:49,497 --> 00:10:52,742
- So someone has
to do something now,
223
00:10:52,744 --> 00:10:54,115
before it's too late!
224
00:10:54,117 --> 00:10:56,926
- I hope by "someone,"
you don't mean you!
225
00:10:56,928 --> 00:10:58,567
- If not me, then who?
226
00:10:58,569 --> 00:11:00,373
- Clementine,
that's what you said
227
00:11:00,375 --> 00:11:03,219
before the glacier fiasco
and the snowplow incident.
228
00:11:03,221 --> 00:11:06,699
- Hey! I'm a problem solver,
and
those roads were very
slushy.
229
00:11:06,701 --> 00:11:09,043
- Everyone appreciates
your contentions,
230
00:11:09,045 --> 00:11:10,246
but you have to admit
231
00:11:10,248 --> 00:11:13,226
you do have a tendency
to leap before you look.
232
00:11:13,228 --> 00:11:15,937
Hey, focus on your studies.
233
00:11:15,939 --> 00:11:18,413
When you grow up, you can
join the rest of the family
234
00:11:18,415 --> 00:11:19,852
in the Guild of Brain Stretch.
235
00:11:19,854 --> 00:11:21,593
- But, Mom, it's just
236
00:11:21,595 --> 00:11:25,811
I feel like I'm meant for
something else, you know?
237
00:11:25,813 --> 00:11:28,287
Something...
something bigger!
238
00:11:30,464 --> 00:11:34,044
Wait... wait a minute!
239
00:11:34,046 --> 00:11:35,986
What's that?
240
00:11:35,988 --> 00:11:39,199
Now, this kid really
gets what it takes
241
00:11:39,201 --> 00:11:41,307
to make Christmas dazzy!
242
00:11:44,153 --> 00:11:47,130
Kevin Hastings.
243
00:11:47,132 --> 00:11:50,478
Why isn't Christmas
like it used to be?
244
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,525
- That's exactly what
I've been wondering!
245
00:11:53,527 --> 00:11:56,101
- Honey, he can't hear you.
246
00:11:56,103 --> 00:11:57,240
(Sighing)
247
00:11:57,242 --> 00:12:00,150
- Doesn't matter.
I heard him.
248
00:12:02,696 --> 00:12:04,702
SNO-M-G!
249
00:12:05,809 --> 00:12:07,851
I've got a great idea!
250
00:12:07,853 --> 00:12:10,270
(Doorbell ringing)
251
00:12:10,272 --> 00:12:11,907
- Mom!
252
00:12:14,667 --> 00:12:16,029
Mom!
253
00:12:16,031 --> 00:12:18,685
(Doorbell ringing)
254
00:12:48,295 --> 00:12:50,881
Whoa! Cool!
255
00:12:56,778 --> 00:12:58,207
(Beeping)
256
00:12:58,209 --> 00:13:00,900
Flight 7-Niner-Niner!
257
00:13:00,902 --> 00:13:03,659
You're clear to land
on runway Alpha-Charlie.
258
00:13:03,661 --> 00:13:06,010
Make sure your flaps
and landing gear are down.
259
00:13:06,012 --> 00:13:08,463
(Cartoon characters
talking, indistinct)
260
00:13:08,465 --> 00:13:12,210
- Whatever you say, Tower,
although, I don't use a
runway.
261
00:13:13,404 --> 00:13:15,243
- Uh, who is this?
262
00:13:15,245 --> 00:13:17,525
- If you don't know
who you're talking to,
263
00:13:17,528 --> 00:13:20,081
then why are you giving
flight instructions?
264
00:13:20,083 --> 00:13:21,307
(Beeping)
265
00:13:21,309 --> 00:13:24,988
- I was just fooling around.
266
00:13:24,990 --> 00:13:28,019
- I know! I'm just
messing with you.
267
00:13:28,021 --> 00:13:30,575
So, you like the present?
268
00:13:30,577 --> 00:13:32,579
- Yeah, it's awesome.
269
00:13:32,581 --> 00:13:35,945
It totally turned around
my otherwise crummy month.
270
00:13:35,947 --> 00:13:38,289
- If it makes you
feel any better,
271
00:13:38,292 --> 00:13:40,296
you're not the
only one with problems.
272
00:13:40,298 --> 00:13:42,912
Do you wanna talk about it?
273
00:13:42,914 --> 00:13:45,290
- Yeah, except my mom will freak
274
00:13:45,292 --> 00:13:49,335
if she catches me talking
to a stranger on the radio.
275
00:13:49,337 --> 00:13:51,579
- Well, technically,
it's not a radio.
276
00:13:51,581 --> 00:13:53,482
It's a Northpole communicator.
277
00:13:53,484 --> 00:13:55,283
- North Pole?
278
00:13:55,286 --> 00:13:58,002
- Yeah! It's where I live
with my 9 brothers and
sisters.
279
00:13:58,005 --> 00:14:00,551
- You live at the North Pole?
280
00:14:00,553 --> 00:14:02,557
- Oh, not the North Pole.
281
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,479
I actually live in
a city called Northpole.
282
00:14:05,481 --> 00:14:06,873
Name's Clementine.
283
00:14:06,875 --> 00:14:09,761
See? Now we're not
strangers anymore.
284
00:14:09,763 --> 00:14:11,156
Right, Kevin?
285
00:14:11,158 --> 00:14:13,161
- How could you...
286
00:14:13,163 --> 00:14:16,084
- Now, you tell me about
your lousy month,
287
00:14:16,087 --> 00:14:18,769
and I'll tell you about mine.
288
00:14:18,771 --> 00:14:21,964
- No one around here gets me.
289
00:14:25,193 --> 00:14:29,508
(Kevin talking, indistinct)
290
00:14:29,510 --> 00:14:32,228
- We are two of a kind, Kevin.
291
00:14:32,230 --> 00:14:33,960
I mean, where is it written
292
00:14:33,962 --> 00:14:36,509
a small elf can't make
a big difference?
293
00:14:36,511 --> 00:14:38,379
(Electricity crackling)
294
00:14:38,381 --> 00:14:41,948
- Excuse me? Elf?
Wait a minute.
295
00:14:41,950 --> 00:14:43,342
(Static, beeping)
296
00:14:43,344 --> 00:14:45,891
Hello? Clementine!
297
00:14:45,893 --> 00:14:47,760
Hello!
298
00:14:47,762 --> 00:14:49,594
- Kevin!
299
00:14:49,596 --> 00:14:52,689
Hey! Who are
you talking to?
300
00:14:52,691 --> 00:14:55,373
- Would you believe an elf?
301
00:14:55,375 --> 00:14:56,460
- An elf?
302
00:14:56,462 --> 00:14:58,772
OK, Mister, time for bed.
303
00:14:58,774 --> 00:14:59,894
(Chuckling)
304
00:14:59,896 --> 00:15:01,695
An elf!
305
00:15:04,857 --> 00:15:06,793
(Woman coughing)
306
00:15:08,696 --> 00:15:10,939
- Who needs a gym when
the library's open?
307
00:15:10,941 --> 00:15:12,197
(Chuckling)
308
00:15:12,199 --> 00:15:15,188
- Yeah! Uh, Ryan, right?
309
00:15:15,190 --> 00:15:16,343
- Yeah.
310
00:15:16,345 --> 00:15:18,450
- Shouldn't you be in school?
311
00:15:18,452 --> 00:15:20,115
- The kids have music
class on Tuesday mornings.
312
00:15:20,117 --> 00:15:22,258
It gives me a chance
to do my own homework.
313
00:15:22,260 --> 00:15:23,922
- I see. New tie?
314
00:15:23,924 --> 00:15:25,418
- Oh yeah!
315
00:15:25,420 --> 00:15:26,777
- Yes!
316
00:15:26,779 --> 00:15:28,714
- I buy them in bulk
on the Internet.
317
00:15:28,716 --> 00:15:30,652
What brings you down here?
318
00:15:30,654 --> 00:15:33,711
- Just doing a little
background
work on Greenwood Park
319
00:15:33,713 --> 00:15:35,173
for an article I'm writing.
320
00:15:35,175 --> 00:15:38,196
Of course, the research is
up there, and I'm down here.
321
00:15:38,198 --> 00:15:41,255
- You wanna see some
world-class mountaineering?
322
00:15:41,257 --> 00:15:44,008
- Think you should
be doing that?
323
00:15:44,010 --> 00:15:45,266
- Don't worry!
324
00:15:45,268 --> 00:15:48,733
I spent a summer as
a ranger in Yosemite.
325
00:15:48,735 --> 00:15:49,855
- (Whispering): Yeah!
326
00:15:49,857 --> 00:15:51,248
- Well, maybe not a ranger,
327
00:15:51,250 --> 00:15:53,831
but I did manage
a concession stand.
328
00:15:53,833 --> 00:15:56,896
- Ah! Thank you.
329
00:15:59,690 --> 00:16:01,597
- A parenting book, huh?
330
00:16:01,599 --> 00:16:02,891
Everything OK with Kevin?
331
00:16:02,893 --> 00:16:04,935
- Oh! Yeah, um...
332
00:16:04,937 --> 00:16:06,195
(Chuckling)
333
00:16:06,197 --> 00:16:08,375
Well, to tell you the truth,
334
00:16:08,377 --> 00:16:10,316
Kevin hasn't made
any friends here,
335
00:16:10,318 --> 00:16:12,427
and he's been inventing
a lot of stories,
336
00:16:12,429 --> 00:16:14,403
and last night,
he was talking to an elf.
337
00:16:14,405 --> 00:16:16,004
(Chuckling)
338
00:16:16,006 --> 00:16:18,865
- Well, the imagination can
be a great coping mechanism.
339
00:16:18,867 --> 00:16:22,134
- Or a way to avoid
facing reality.
340
00:16:23,635 --> 00:16:25,983
- Well, look,
I'm sure he will be fine,
341
00:16:25,985 --> 00:16:28,912
but I'm happy to keep
an eye on him at school.
342
00:16:28,914 --> 00:16:30,377
- Thanks!
343
00:16:32,761 --> 00:16:34,464
Happy reading!
344
00:16:34,466 --> 00:16:35,588
- Hmm!
345
00:16:45,433 --> 00:16:48,394
(Wind blowing)
346
00:16:53,164 --> 00:16:55,511
(Electricity crackling)
347
00:17:00,622 --> 00:17:02,664
(Reindeer snorting)
348
00:17:03,789 --> 00:17:05,933
- Hey, Randy!
349
00:17:05,935 --> 00:17:08,760
We've got a big problem
that needs solving.
350
00:17:08,762 --> 00:17:11,860
How about a trip down south?
351
00:17:14,688 --> 00:17:19,557
Wow! Look at you all
ribboned
and bowed and ready to fly!
352
00:17:19,559 --> 00:17:21,635
All right!
353
00:17:21,637 --> 00:17:24,973
It's time to get
into the snow zone.
354
00:17:36,282 --> 00:17:37,234
- Hey!
355
00:17:37,236 --> 00:17:38,528
- Hey!
356
00:17:38,530 --> 00:17:40,400
- Well, we might
as well get started.
357
00:17:40,402 --> 00:17:44,353
At least we have 2 people
on the Christmas committee!
358
00:17:44,355 --> 00:17:46,552
- Christmas committee?
359
00:17:46,554 --> 00:17:49,124
I thought this was
the gamers group.
360
00:17:51,865 --> 00:17:53,354
(Sighing)
361
00:17:54,335 --> 00:17:56,534
- Nice Christmas committee!
362
00:17:56,536 --> 00:17:58,057
(Both laughing)
363
00:18:02,456 --> 00:18:03,707
- Hey, honey.
364
00:18:03,709 --> 00:18:05,366
Don't stay up too late, OK?
365
00:18:05,368 --> 00:18:07,024
- I won't!
366
00:18:07,026 --> 00:18:08,445
- And listen,
367
00:18:08,447 --> 00:18:11,051
I'm sorry your committee
didn't take off,
368
00:18:11,053 --> 00:18:13,621
but I promise we'll have
our own terrific Christmas.
369
00:18:13,623 --> 00:18:15,550
- All right.
Good night, Mom!
370
00:18:15,552 --> 00:18:16,869
- Good night.
371
00:18:19,139 --> 00:18:20,389
(Static)
372
00:18:20,391 --> 00:18:22,996
- (On radio):
Hey! Kevin!
373
00:18:27,869 --> 00:18:29,120
(Beeping)
374
00:18:29,122 --> 00:18:30,372
- Clementine?
375
00:18:30,374 --> 00:18:32,098
- Sorry I lost
contact last night.
376
00:18:32,100 --> 00:18:33,823
The Northern Lights
are freaking.
377
00:18:33,825 --> 00:18:35,718
We've gotta talk right away.
378
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,628
- I don't think
I'm supposed to talk to you.
379
00:18:38,630 --> 00:18:41,911
My mom says you're the
product
of an overactive
imagination.
380
00:18:41,913 --> 00:18:44,212
- Your imagination's fine.
381
00:18:44,214 --> 00:18:45,767
It's your mom's
382
00:18:45,769 --> 00:18:47,934
and a lot of other people's
underactive imaginations
383
00:18:47,936 --> 00:18:49,354
that are the problem.
384
00:18:49,356 --> 00:18:52,062
I mean, where's the joy?
Where's the happiness?
385
00:18:52,064 --> 00:18:53,415
- Good question.
386
00:18:53,417 --> 00:18:54,939
- Glad you think so,
387
00:18:54,941 --> 00:18:58,119
'cause I need you
to find an answer to it
388
00:18:58,121 --> 00:18:59,472
before Northpole's a goner!
389
00:18:59,474 --> 00:19:01,806
- Goner? What are
you talking about?
390
00:19:01,808 --> 00:19:04,176
- Best way to explain
is to show you.
391
00:19:04,178 --> 00:19:07,559
Put down the communicator,
and look out your window.
392
00:19:13,990 --> 00:19:15,443
- No way!
393
00:19:20,689 --> 00:19:22,583
This is so sick!
394
00:19:22,585 --> 00:19:25,358
- Yeah, well, I wanted
the one with racing stripes,
395
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:27,050
but beggars can't be choosers.
396
00:19:27,052 --> 00:19:30,568
Now jump in and buckle up,
'cause we gotta fly!
397
00:19:30,570 --> 00:19:32,700
- Uh, fly?
398
00:19:32,702 --> 00:19:36,355
- Oh, do you know
a faster way to Northpole?
399
00:19:38,962 --> 00:19:41,161
- If my mom finds
out about this,
400
00:19:41,163 --> 00:19:44,409
I'll be in my room until
I'm old enough to vote.
401
00:19:44,411 --> 00:19:46,303
(Giggling)
402
00:19:46,305 --> 00:19:48,874
- Go like snow, Randy!
403
00:19:57,979 --> 00:20:00,920
- OK, I've had
some weird dreams,
404
00:20:00,923 --> 00:20:03,154
but this is the weirdest!
405
00:20:03,156 --> 00:20:04,474
- It's not a dream!
406
00:20:04,476 --> 00:20:06,741
This is what I'm
trying to prove to you!
407
00:20:06,743 --> 00:20:08,805
Northpole is for real!
408
00:20:09,958 --> 00:20:12,460
OK, look down there!
409
00:20:12,462 --> 00:20:15,268
Those are some of the
guilds where toys are made.
410
00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:16,994
That's the Guild of Yummy!
411
00:20:16,997 --> 00:20:19,093
And that's the Guild
of Spin and Fly.
412
00:20:19,095 --> 00:20:20,378
(Kevin chuckling)
413
00:20:20,380 --> 00:20:24,503
Oh, and my favourite,
Reindeer Games Stadium!
414
00:20:24,505 --> 00:20:27,041
- This is so cool!
415
00:20:27,043 --> 00:20:31,740
- And over there, that's the
Guild of Bounce and Spring.
416
00:20:31,742 --> 00:20:34,580
There's Snow Row.
That's where I live.
417
00:20:34,582 --> 00:20:37,523
And those are Northpole canals.
418
00:20:37,525 --> 00:20:39,146
- It's totally awesome!
419
00:20:39,148 --> 00:20:41,749
- Yeah, well, we say "dazzy,"
420
00:20:41,751 --> 00:20:43,744
but "awesome" works too.
421
00:20:43,746 --> 00:20:46,484
Oh! You're gonna
have to put these on.
422
00:20:46,486 --> 00:20:48,209
You're not allowed up here,
423
00:20:48,211 --> 00:20:50,136
and I'm in enough
trouble already.
424
00:20:50,138 --> 00:20:52,740
- Candy-cane tights?
425
00:20:52,742 --> 00:20:54,398
- Yeah!
426
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:55,544
- Green shoes?
427
00:20:55,546 --> 00:20:56,858
- Cute, right?
428
00:20:56,860 --> 00:20:59,287
- If anybody at school
finds out about this,
429
00:20:59,289 --> 00:21:02,388
I'll be a piñata in,
like, 3 seconds flat!
430
00:21:02,390 --> 00:21:05,423
- My town, my rules.
431
00:21:07,953 --> 00:21:10,009
Bring 'er home, Randy!
432
00:21:16,047 --> 00:21:19,519
- Whee!
433
00:21:19,521 --> 00:21:23,026
- (Male elf): Oh!
That's wonderful!
434
00:21:23,028 --> 00:21:26,026
- All right! Come on!
Come on, come on!
435
00:21:26,028 --> 00:21:29,534
Remember, act like an elf.
436
00:21:29,536 --> 00:21:33,311
- Ugh! They don't call these
things "tights" for a
nothing.
437
00:21:33,313 --> 00:21:34,356
- Whee!
438
00:21:34,358 --> 00:21:35,367
- Whoo!
439
00:21:35,369 --> 00:21:37,491
- This is amazing.
440
00:21:37,493 --> 00:21:39,886
How come they don't
just use the bridge?
441
00:21:39,888 --> 00:21:42,920
- Duh! Because
bouncing's more fun!
442
00:21:42,922 --> 00:21:45,213
- Makes sense.
443
00:21:45,215 --> 00:21:47,810
Oh! What's up with
the light show?
444
00:21:50,475 --> 00:21:52,092
- That's what we need to fix.
445
00:21:52,094 --> 00:21:54,723
If Northpole's gonna
survive,
we need somebody
446
00:21:54,725 --> 00:21:58,195
to do something to keep
the cycle of happiness
going.
447
00:21:58,197 --> 00:22:01,568
- What's the cycle of happiness?
448
00:22:01,570 --> 00:22:05,479
- When children down south
feel
the joy of holiday
togetherness,
449
00:22:05,481 --> 00:22:09,020
sparks of happiness flow up
and become the Northern
Lights.
450
00:22:09,022 --> 00:22:11,280
Then they float
back down on Northpole
451
00:22:11,282 --> 00:22:13,066
as magic snowflakes.
452
00:22:13,068 --> 00:22:15,191
And magic snow
powers everything.
453
00:22:15,193 --> 00:22:17,247
It's what the elf
guilds use to make toys,
454
00:22:17,249 --> 00:22:18,596
toys that make kids happy,
455
00:22:18,598 --> 00:22:20,586
and so then the cycle continues
456
00:22:20,588 --> 00:22:23,182
just like it has
for generations.
457
00:22:24,599 --> 00:22:26,555
Until now.
458
00:22:28,511 --> 00:22:30,803
(Elves talking, indistinct)
459
00:22:44,765 --> 00:22:50,259
And so less togetherness
down
south means less magic snow.
460
00:22:50,261 --> 00:22:52,350
Without some kind of miracle,
461
00:22:52,352 --> 00:22:54,880
the Northern Lights
could go out,
462
00:22:54,882 --> 00:22:57,746
which would be the
end of Northpole.
463
00:22:57,748 --> 00:23:00,274
- And the end of all
the toys from Santa!
464
00:23:00,276 --> 00:23:02,736
- Oh! Well, now you're
getting the picture!
465
00:23:02,738 --> 00:23:06,344
Man! No toys?
466
00:23:09,144 --> 00:23:11,233
(Both laughing)
467
00:23:12,381 --> 00:23:14,201
Why am I laughing?
468
00:23:14,203 --> 00:23:17,539
- Because getting smacked
with
a snowball made of happy
moments
469
00:23:17,541 --> 00:23:18,888
makes everybody giggle!
470
00:23:18,890 --> 00:23:21,012
(Both laughing)
471
00:23:21,014 --> 00:23:24,182
Anyway, now that
you've seen the problem,
472
00:23:24,184 --> 00:23:25,665
we need to get busy.
473
00:23:25,667 --> 00:23:28,498
- Uh, we?
474
00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:31,368
- Yeah, you and me!
475
00:23:31,370 --> 00:23:33,663
It's up to us to make
the miracle happen.
476
00:23:33,665 --> 00:23:35,723
- I don't know about
that, Clementine.
477
00:23:35,725 --> 00:23:38,019
It sounds a little
out of my league.
478
00:23:38,021 --> 00:23:39,504
- (Santa):
Clementine!
479
00:23:39,506 --> 00:23:40,989
- Oh boy!
480
00:23:40,991 --> 00:23:42,408
My ice is totally cracked.
481
00:23:44,569 --> 00:23:47,337
- Santa and
Mrs. Claus?
482
00:23:47,339 --> 00:23:48,956
- Kevin Hastings!
483
00:23:50,140 --> 00:23:52,030
You almost had me fooled!
484
00:23:52,032 --> 00:23:54,494
- Uh, well, you see,
Clementine...
485
00:23:54,496 --> 00:23:58,647
- Does this have anything to
do with my missing reindeer?
486
00:23:58,649 --> 00:24:01,516
- Uh-huh! But I've got
a very good excuse.
487
00:24:01,518 --> 00:24:04,285
You see, Kevin and I
are working together
488
00:24:04,287 --> 00:24:05,938
on the happiness problem.
489
00:24:05,940 --> 00:24:08,032
- You volunteered, Kevin?
490
00:24:08,034 --> 00:24:09,652
That's nice!
491
00:24:09,654 --> 00:24:13,131
- Well, I haven't
exactly volunteered.
492
00:24:13,133 --> 00:24:16,809
I mean, Clementine's
talking miracles here!
493
00:24:16,811 --> 00:24:20,050
I have trouble opening
a jar of pickles!
494
00:24:20,052 --> 00:24:21,906
- Well, even
the smallest snowflake
495
00:24:21,908 --> 00:24:24,508
can turn into
the biggest snowball!
496
00:24:24,510 --> 00:24:26,364
- If it gets a push.
497
00:24:26,366 --> 00:24:30,517
I know you're worried about
me
finding you in your new
home,
498
00:24:30,519 --> 00:24:32,340
but if it'll make
you feel better,
499
00:24:32,342 --> 00:24:34,534
you take this magic snowflake,
500
00:24:34,536 --> 00:24:37,235
and we'll find you
no matter where you are.
501
00:24:37,237 --> 00:24:40,274
- Wow! Thanks!
502
00:24:41,692 --> 00:24:43,413
- (Mrs. Claus):
Good luck!
503
00:24:43,415 --> 00:24:46,012
- Thanks, Mrs. Claus.
504
00:24:46,014 --> 00:24:47,666
(Sighing)
505
00:24:47,668 --> 00:24:49,962
So, what do you say?
506
00:24:49,964 --> 00:24:51,684
(Sighing)
507
00:24:51,686 --> 00:24:53,574
- What else can I say?
508
00:24:53,576 --> 00:24:55,330
I'm in!
509
00:24:55,332 --> 00:24:58,841
- Oh, Kevin! You're
the deer's ears!
510
00:24:58,843 --> 00:25:00,294
(Chuckling)
511
00:25:00,296 --> 00:25:01,983
Now let's get you home.
512
00:25:01,985 --> 00:25:03,806
Come on!
513
00:25:03,808 --> 00:25:06,203
(Birds chirping)
514
00:25:06,205 --> 00:25:09,783
- Mom, you're not gonna
believe what happened!
515
00:25:09,785 --> 00:25:12,046
- Morning, Bed Head! Whoa!
516
00:25:12,048 --> 00:25:13,936
- It was amazing!
517
00:25:13,938 --> 00:25:15,525
First I talked to Clementine!
518
00:25:15,527 --> 00:25:17,652
- You made a friend
named Clementine?
519
00:25:17,654 --> 00:25:18,799
- Yeah! She's an elf!
520
00:25:18,801 --> 00:25:20,758
- You were talking
to an elf again.
521
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,176
- Not just talked!
522
00:25:22,178 --> 00:25:26,093
She took me on a flying-
sleigh ride to Northpole!
523
00:25:26,095 --> 00:25:27,512
And I met Santa,
524
00:25:27,514 --> 00:25:32,138
and saw all the guilds where
they make all the toys!
525
00:25:32,140 --> 00:25:34,907
And I was drafted
on a special mission
526
00:25:34,909 --> 00:25:38,216
to help save Northpole
and protect Christmas!
527
00:25:38,218 --> 00:25:40,445
- Wow! That was some dream!
528
00:25:40,447 --> 00:25:43,855
- That's what I thought at
first, but it wasn't a
dream!
529
00:25:43,857 --> 00:25:45,780
Look, I got proof.
530
00:25:45,782 --> 00:25:49,663
- Oh, you got the rest of
the
Christmas decorations!
Great!
531
00:25:49,665 --> 00:25:51,623
- No, Santa gave me this himself
532
00:25:51,625 --> 00:25:54,154
so he can find me
no matter where we live!
533
00:25:54,156 --> 00:25:56,180
It's a magic snowflake!
534
00:25:56,182 --> 00:26:00,132
- OK, honey, I want you
to listen to me.
535
00:26:00,134 --> 00:26:02,800
I know that this move
hasn't been easy,
536
00:26:02,802 --> 00:26:04,960
but we're gonna get through it,
537
00:26:04,962 --> 00:26:06,548
like we always do,
538
00:26:06,550 --> 00:26:07,898
together.
539
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:09,485
- But, Mom, I...
540
00:26:09,487 --> 00:26:11,173
- Honey, go get ready
for school, OK?
541
00:26:11,175 --> 00:26:12,186
Come on!
542
00:26:12,188 --> 00:26:14,314
(Sighing)
543
00:26:14,316 --> 00:26:17,421
- At least I know what
my class project's gonna be.
544
00:26:17,423 --> 00:26:19,008
(Chuckling)
545
00:26:19,010 --> 00:26:21,507
- Magic snowflake!
546
00:26:35,723 --> 00:26:37,175
- Hi!
547
00:26:37,177 --> 00:26:38,696
- For the mayor?
548
00:26:38,698 --> 00:26:40,924
- Yes, but I have
strict instructions
549
00:26:40,926 --> 00:26:42,510
to deliver it personally.
550
00:26:42,512 --> 00:26:44,638
- Oh! Uh, OK.
Just one moment, please.
551
00:26:46,225 --> 00:26:48,758
(Sighing)
552
00:26:56,391 --> 00:26:58,549
- So, as you guys well know,
553
00:26:58,551 --> 00:27:01,927
we are T-minus 2 days
till Christmas vacation,
554
00:27:01,929 --> 00:27:05,237
which means it's time
to pick your projects.
555
00:27:05,239 --> 00:27:07,431
All right? Now, dazzle me.
556
00:27:07,433 --> 00:27:08,715
Enrique!
557
00:27:08,717 --> 00:27:10,606
- My project is
to measure snowfall.
558
00:27:10,608 --> 00:27:12,159
- OK, how you gonna do that?
559
00:27:12,161 --> 00:27:13,813
- Using my cat's water dish.
560
00:27:13,815 --> 00:27:16,582
- Wouldn't you rather
use a beaker?
561
00:27:16,584 --> 00:27:18,676
- Pico de Gato won't drink
from a beaker!
562
00:27:18,678 --> 00:27:20,939
- OK, moving on!
Andrea, what's yours?
563
00:27:20,941 --> 00:27:23,505
- I was inspired by
the Jane Goodall video
564
00:27:23,507 --> 00:27:25,058
we watched last week.
565
00:27:25,060 --> 00:27:27,625
- To do a field study
on learned behaviour?
566
00:27:27,627 --> 00:27:28,976
- No, a field study
567
00:27:28,978 --> 00:27:31,542
on which of my Christmas
presents cost the most.
568
00:27:31,544 --> 00:27:33,163
(All chuckling)
569
00:27:33,165 --> 00:27:36,169
- OK! Kevin, what's
yours gonna be?
570
00:27:36,171 --> 00:27:40,084
- Uh, well, there's been
some really great ideas
571
00:27:40,086 --> 00:27:41,876
floated around here,
572
00:27:41,878 --> 00:27:45,015
and I don't wanna
upstage anybody,
573
00:27:45,017 --> 00:27:46,569
so I'll tell you later.
574
00:27:46,571 --> 00:27:47,853
- No, sir. Out with it!
575
00:27:47,855 --> 00:27:49,608
Now, I know you
got something great.
576
00:27:49,610 --> 00:27:51,634
What's your vacation
project gonna be?
577
00:27:51,636 --> 00:27:53,626
- (Muttering):
I'm gonna save Northpole.
578
00:27:53,628 --> 00:27:55,686
- What's that Kevin?
I couldn't hear you.
579
00:27:55,688 --> 00:27:59,232
- Um, I'm gonna save
a place called Northpole,
580
00:27:59,234 --> 00:28:03,115
make sure Santa can still
bring presents and stuff.
581
00:28:03,117 --> 00:28:04,871
(Children laughing)
582
00:28:04,873 --> 00:28:08,281
- Hey, hey, hey! It is
an unconventional idea,
583
00:28:08,283 --> 00:28:10,206
but as Einstein said,
584
00:28:10,208 --> 00:28:12,976
imagination is even more
important than knowledge.
585
00:28:12,978 --> 00:28:16,790
All right, look, Kevin,
we'll talk after class.
586
00:28:16,793 --> 00:28:18,378
Now, moving on...
587
00:28:20,743 --> 00:28:22,532
(Telephone ringing in distance)
588
00:28:22,534 --> 00:28:24,760
- Thank you.
589
00:28:24,762 --> 00:28:27,090
- Please come in.
Sit down.
590
00:28:27,092 --> 00:28:31,886
Oh, and which happy
constituent
do I have to thank for this?
591
00:28:31,888 --> 00:28:33,776
- Chelsea Hastings
with The Examiner.
592
00:28:33,778 --> 00:28:36,376
You haven't returned
my phone calls!
593
00:28:37,627 --> 00:28:38,876
(Chuckling)
594
00:28:38,878 --> 00:28:40,733
- You're very tricky,
Miss Hastings.
595
00:28:40,735 --> 00:28:42,016
I applaud your tenacity.
596
00:28:42,018 --> 00:28:43,468
- Well, it seemed better
597
00:28:43,470 --> 00:28:45,528
than interrupting
your speech at the Kiwanis.
598
00:28:45,530 --> 00:28:46,980
Tell me, how do you feel
599
00:28:46,982 --> 00:28:49,411
about cancelling
a century-old tradition?
600
00:28:49,413 --> 00:28:52,923
- Ah, this is about
the tree lighting.
601
00:28:52,925 --> 00:28:56,704
Look, I was elected on
an austerity platform.
602
00:28:56,706 --> 00:28:59,711
Now, I'm not gonna
spend money on some ceremony
603
00:28:59,713 --> 00:29:02,548
that, well, hardly
anybody goes to anymore.
604
00:29:02,550 --> 00:29:04,101
- I'm sure it's not that bad.
605
00:29:04,103 --> 00:29:05,958
- Have you been there?
- No, not yet.
606
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,206
- It's an eyesore.
607
00:29:07,208 --> 00:29:09,301
The warming chalet
is all boarded up.
608
00:29:09,303 --> 00:29:11,427
The skating rink
needs maintenance.
609
00:29:11,429 --> 00:29:13,858
I'm sure you can
understand my position.
610
00:29:13,860 --> 00:29:16,831
- What I can't understand
is why the planning
commission,
611
00:29:16,833 --> 00:29:19,397
who usually overseas
construction projects,
612
00:29:19,399 --> 00:29:21,795
is suddenly involved with
a Christmas-tree lighting.
613
00:29:21,797 --> 00:29:23,584
- And who told you that?
614
00:29:23,586 --> 00:29:26,219
- Sorry, I can't
reveal my source.
615
00:29:26,221 --> 00:29:27,772
- I can't comment any further.
616
00:29:27,774 --> 00:29:31,385
- I see. Well, at least
I'm starting to.
617
00:29:34,728 --> 00:29:36,890
- OK, let me make sure
I got this right.
618
00:29:36,892 --> 00:29:41,279
Sparks of happiness rise
and form the Northern
Lights...
619
00:29:41,281 --> 00:29:42,258
- Right.
620
00:29:42,260 --> 00:29:43,913
- Which then float down
621
00:29:43,915 --> 00:29:45,804
in the middle of
magic snowflakes
622
00:29:45,806 --> 00:29:48,708
that elves use to make toys,
which make kids happy,
623
00:29:48,710 --> 00:29:51,341
and the whole cycle
just repeats itself?
624
00:29:51,343 --> 00:29:52,345
- Exactly!
625
00:29:55,564 --> 00:29:57,859
Means more Christmas
happiness overall!
626
00:29:57,861 --> 00:29:59,851
And maybe that can snowball.
627
00:29:59,853 --> 00:30:01,911
- Wow, you've really
thought this through.
628
00:30:01,913 --> 00:30:03,666
- So you'll let me do it?
629
00:30:03,668 --> 00:30:05,322
- Of course I will, OK?
630
00:30:05,324 --> 00:30:08,868
But supposing that your
hypothesis here is correct,
631
00:30:08,870 --> 00:30:11,840
what are some of
the things you can do
632
00:30:11,842 --> 00:30:13,865
to help spread
holiday happiness here?
633
00:30:13,867 --> 00:30:15,553
- That's where
I'm kind of stuck.
634
00:30:15,555 --> 00:30:18,086
- Well, what are some
of the things
635
00:30:18,088 --> 00:30:20,652
that make you happy
at Christmas?
636
00:30:20,654 --> 00:30:22,374
- Well, in my old town,
637
00:30:22,376 --> 00:30:25,380
Christmas is all about
carolling and baking
cookies,
638
00:30:25,382 --> 00:30:29,331
and the best thing of all
was
the big Christmas-tree
lighting.
639
00:30:29,333 --> 00:30:32,439
It was so cool how the
whole town got together.
640
00:30:32,441 --> 00:30:33,957
But my mom said, here,
641
00:30:33,959 --> 00:30:36,861
they're not even gonna
have a tree lighting.
642
00:30:36,863 --> 00:30:38,583
I mean, really?
643
00:30:38,585 --> 00:30:40,879
- I know, it's funny.
It used to be huge.
644
00:30:40,881 --> 00:30:44,595
I guess, over the years,
people
just sort of forgot about
it.
645
00:30:44,597 --> 00:30:47,025
- Maybe they need
to be reminded.
646
00:30:48,445 --> 00:30:50,605
That's what we gotta do!
647
00:30:50,607 --> 00:30:52,867
We gotta save the tree lighting!
648
00:30:52,869 --> 00:30:54,083
- Save the...
649
00:30:54,085 --> 00:30:55,367
(Chuckling)
650
00:30:55,369 --> 00:30:58,135
OK, that's a, uh,
that is a tall order, Kev,
651
00:30:58,137 --> 00:31:00,667
but I did ask you
to dream big, didn't I?
652
00:31:00,669 --> 00:31:03,335
All right,
let's break this down.
653
00:31:03,337 --> 00:31:05,429
- Hi, is this the
public works department?
654
00:31:05,431 --> 00:31:07,184
- (Man on telephone): Yes.
655
00:31:07,186 --> 00:31:09,110
- I wanted to see if...
- Can you hold, pleasCan you hold, please?
656
00:31:09,113 --> 00:31:10,629
- Yes, of course, I'll hold.
657
00:31:10,631 --> 00:31:12,385
Oh!
658
00:31:12,387 --> 00:31:14,716
(Panting)
659
00:31:16,776 --> 00:31:19,747
(Crow cawing)
660
00:31:23,698 --> 00:31:26,433
- (Female voice):
Please continue to hold.
661
00:31:26,435 --> 00:31:28,426
(Scoffing)
662
00:31:31,229 --> 00:31:33,456
(Birds chirping)
663
00:31:43,554 --> 00:31:45,782
- Used to be one great park!
664
00:31:45,784 --> 00:31:48,078
When the ice was groomed
665
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,834
and that tree was lit up,
666
00:31:49,836 --> 00:31:51,658
it was magical!
667
00:31:51,660 --> 00:31:55,169
What you're holding in your
hand
means the end of all that.
668
00:31:55,171 --> 00:31:57,264
- I don't think I'm following.
669
00:31:57,266 --> 00:31:59,357
- Those numbers are coordinates.
670
00:31:59,359 --> 00:32:03,882
A few days ago, a couple of
surveyors drove up here.
671
00:32:03,884 --> 00:32:07,359
"Peterson," I think, was
written
on the side of their truck.
672
00:32:07,361 --> 00:32:09,960
- "Peterson"?
Or did it say "Pendleton?"
673
00:32:09,962 --> 00:32:11,683
- That's it, "Pendleton."
674
00:32:11,685 --> 00:32:15,835
Whoever he is has something
in mind for this place
675
00:32:15,837 --> 00:32:18,098
other than ice skating.
676
00:32:24,819 --> 00:32:26,540
- So, how's the
investigation going?
677
00:32:26,542 --> 00:32:29,681
- Well, it's an enigma
wrapped in a riddle
678
00:32:29,683 --> 00:32:31,504
inside 3 layers of mystery.
679
00:32:31,506 --> 00:32:33,024
Or is that a turducken?
680
00:32:33,026 --> 00:32:34,510
(Chelsea chuckling)
681
00:32:34,512 --> 00:32:36,164
- Did you talk to the mayor yet?
682
00:32:36,166 --> 00:32:38,291
- Yeah, I can see
why people like him.
683
00:32:38,293 --> 00:32:41,161
I still don't think
he's being straight with me.
684
00:32:41,163 --> 00:32:43,255
- You always see
the half-empty glass.
685
00:32:43,257 --> 00:32:46,463
- Honey, somebody has to,
or we'd run out of milk.
686
00:32:49,166 --> 00:32:50,482
- Who's Ernie Pendleton?
687
00:32:50,484 --> 00:32:53,386
- Hmm! That's what
I'd like to know.
688
00:32:53,388 --> 00:32:54,770
(Doorbell ringing)
689
00:32:54,772 --> 00:32:56,255
Oh! That's Mrs. Tucker.
690
00:32:56,257 --> 00:32:59,396
Now, listen, make sure
you do your homework, OK?
691
00:32:59,398 --> 00:33:01,726
I love you.
692
00:33:05,644 --> 00:33:06,858
Hi, Mrs. Tucker!
693
00:33:06,860 --> 00:33:08,548
- Hello!
How are you?
694
00:33:08,550 --> 00:33:10,607
- (Chelsea): Good!
Thanks for coming over.
695
00:33:10,609 --> 00:33:12,532
- (Mrs. Tucker):
It's always a pleasure.
696
00:33:12,534 --> 00:33:14,255
He's a good boy!
No trouble at all!
697
00:33:14,257 --> 00:33:15,672
- I'll be back before dinner.
698
00:33:15,674 --> 00:33:18,036
- OK!
699
00:33:18,038 --> 00:33:19,692
Hello, Kevin!
700
00:33:19,694 --> 00:33:20,940
- Hey, Mrs. Tucker!
701
00:33:20,942 --> 00:33:22,425
- Doing your schoolwork?
702
00:33:22,427 --> 00:33:23,775
- Mm-hmm!
703
00:33:23,777 --> 00:33:26,814
- All right, dear!
I'll be watching my soaps!
704
00:33:26,816 --> 00:33:28,400
Let me know
if you need any help!
705
00:33:31,170 --> 00:33:33,262
(Inaudible)
706
00:33:45,181 --> 00:33:48,489
- So, how did you know
I'd be at home?
707
00:33:48,491 --> 00:33:50,785
- Magic snowflake, back pack.
708
00:33:50,787 --> 00:33:53,316
Hello!
709
00:33:53,318 --> 00:33:56,592
- Oh, yeah, right.
710
00:33:56,594 --> 00:33:58,448
(Grunting)
711
00:33:58,450 --> 00:34:00,845
If we're gonna do
something, we gotta hurry.
712
00:34:00,847 --> 00:34:03,782
My babysitter's soap is
over in exactly one hour.
713
00:34:03,784 --> 00:34:07,057
- OK, so what do
you have in mind?
714
00:34:07,059 --> 00:34:09,116
- I was thinking
about what Santa said,
715
00:34:09,118 --> 00:34:12,019
with, you know, snowflakes
turning into snowballs.
716
00:34:12,021 --> 00:34:14,112
- And?
717
00:34:14,114 --> 00:34:16,746
- And what if we get
a lot of people together
718
00:34:16,748 --> 00:34:18,907
to do something
really Christmassy.
719
00:34:18,909 --> 00:34:20,528
- Like?
720
00:34:20,530 --> 00:34:23,802
- Like saving the town's
tree-lighting ceremony!
721
00:34:23,804 --> 00:34:26,064
That could create a ton
of happiness sparks.
722
00:34:26,066 --> 00:34:28,326
So, what do you think?
723
00:34:28,328 --> 00:34:30,047
- I think it's pure genius!
724
00:34:30,049 --> 00:34:31,871
Let's go!
725
00:34:31,873 --> 00:34:35,349
- Whoa, there! Not dressed
like that, you can't.
726
00:34:35,351 --> 00:34:38,388
Throw on my old coat
and switch hats.
727
00:34:38,390 --> 00:34:40,378
Be sure to pull it
over your ears.
728
00:34:40,380 --> 00:34:42,405
- What... what's wrong
with my ears?
729
00:34:42,407 --> 00:34:46,051
- Nothing, except
mine are round,
730
00:34:46,053 --> 00:34:48,009
and yours aren't,
731
00:34:48,011 --> 00:34:51,249
if you get my, uh, "point".
732
00:34:51,251 --> 00:34:55,469
- OK, but these clothes,
they
don't reflect my personal
flair.
733
00:34:55,471 --> 00:34:58,508
- My town, my rules.
734
00:35:01,042 --> 00:35:03,336
- OK!
735
00:35:03,338 --> 00:35:06,273
- Slow down! You're
gonna melt those keys.
736
00:35:06,275 --> 00:35:09,311
- How come everybody at
City Hall runs for the hills
737
00:35:09,313 --> 00:35:10,628
when I ask them
738
00:35:10,630 --> 00:35:12,857
about the canceled
tree-lighting ceremony
739
00:35:12,859 --> 00:35:14,713
and that survey flag
at Greenwood Park?
740
00:35:14,715 --> 00:35:16,976
- Good questions!
Here's another:
741
00:35:16,978 --> 00:35:19,913
Jake in ad sales is a great
guy,
and I was wondering if...
742
00:35:19,915 --> 00:35:23,727
- You mean the guy who talks
too much about monster
trucks?
743
00:35:23,729 --> 00:35:25,449
Yeah, no, I don't think so.
744
00:35:25,451 --> 00:35:27,205
Thanks, though!
745
00:35:27,207 --> 00:35:28,521
- All right!
I tried!
746
00:35:28,523 --> 00:35:29,805
- Hmm!
747
00:35:31,324 --> 00:35:33,618
- Help us save the
Christmas-tree lighting!
748
00:35:33,620 --> 00:35:34,902
- Make a donation here!
749
00:35:34,904 --> 00:35:36,725
Help save the
tree-lighting ceremony!
750
00:35:36,727 --> 00:35:38,412
- Help save the tree lighting!
751
00:35:38,414 --> 00:35:39,832
- Hey, you two!
752
00:35:39,834 --> 00:35:42,668
You're driving off my
business with this racket.
753
00:35:42,670 --> 00:35:44,490
There's no panhandling
here! Now, shoo!
754
00:35:44,492 --> 00:35:46,043
- We weren't panhandling.
755
00:35:46,045 --> 00:35:48,879
I'm pretty sure we would
know
if we were handling pans!
756
00:35:48,881 --> 00:35:50,703
- Move along before
I call the cops.
757
00:35:50,705 --> 00:35:52,728
- I think he needs
a dose of happiness.
758
00:35:52,730 --> 00:35:53,875
- No!
759
00:35:55,599 --> 00:35:58,669
They don't have
magic snow here, remember?
760
00:35:58,671 --> 00:35:59,918
Run!
- Uh-oh!
761
00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:05,862
Sorry! Merry Christmas!
762
00:36:05,864 --> 00:36:08,899
- I can't believe
you snuck out on Mrs.
Tucker!
763
00:36:08,901 --> 00:36:11,194
You almost gave her
a heart attack!
764
00:36:11,196 --> 00:36:13,254
What has gotten into you lately?
765
00:36:13,256 --> 00:36:14,942
- Uh, Christmas?
766
00:36:14,944 --> 00:36:17,980
- OK, we need to move beyond
the obsession with
Christmas.
767
00:36:17,982 --> 00:36:19,534
Broaden your horizons.
768
00:36:19,536 --> 00:36:22,708
- I don't have time to have
my horizons broadened.
769
00:36:22,710 --> 00:36:26,118
- Kevin, you're 10 years of
age.
You have nothing but time!
770
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:27,906
- I don't know
if you've noticed,
771
00:36:27,908 --> 00:36:29,965
but I've only got a few days
772
00:36:29,967 --> 00:36:32,734
to work on my class project
to
save the town's tree
lighting.
773
00:36:32,736 --> 00:36:34,219
- That's your class project?
774
00:36:34,222 --> 00:36:37,156
I don't mean to sound like
my usual negative self,
775
00:36:37,158 --> 00:36:40,262
but I think that's gonna be
a tough one to pull off.
776
00:36:40,264 --> 00:36:42,154
- Mr. Wilson says
I'll learn more
777
00:36:42,156 --> 00:36:44,786
by doing something
difficult and failing
778
00:36:44,788 --> 00:36:47,015
than doing something
easy and succeeding.
779
00:36:47,017 --> 00:36:49,277
- That's what
Mr. Wilson says, huh?
780
00:36:49,279 --> 00:36:50,694
- Yep!
781
00:36:50,696 --> 00:36:52,957
- Well, I guess
that's pretty good advice.
782
00:36:52,959 --> 00:36:56,198
Listen, no more skipping out
on Mrs. Tucker. I mean it.
783
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,662
- OK.
784
00:36:58,664 --> 00:37:02,545
Wait! We still have to get
our own Christmas tree.
785
00:37:02,547 --> 00:37:05,752
- You're right! How about
you and I go get one?
786
00:37:05,754 --> 00:37:07,608
- And not just any tree.
787
00:37:07,610 --> 00:37:10,782
The absolute best, most
amazing
Christmas tree we can find.
788
00:37:10,784 --> 00:37:12,470
- You got it!
789
00:37:12,472 --> 00:37:13,787
(Chuckling)
790
00:37:13,789 --> 00:37:15,069
(Birds chirping)
791
00:37:15,072 --> 00:37:17,771
Is that a Christmas tree
or a giant sequoia?
792
00:37:17,773 --> 00:37:19,898
- But I like this one!
793
00:37:19,900 --> 00:37:23,071
- Can I do a bait-and-switch
and
offer mini-golfing instead?
794
00:37:23,073 --> 00:37:24,725
- Sorry, too late.
795
00:37:24,727 --> 00:37:25,806
- Hmm!
796
00:37:25,808 --> 00:37:27,055
- Hey!
797
00:37:27,057 --> 00:37:29,789
That's quite a
conifer you got there!
798
00:37:29,791 --> 00:37:32,592
Kind of makes this one
look a little...
799
00:37:32,594 --> 00:37:35,091
- Puny?
800
00:37:35,093 --> 00:37:37,318
But accurate.
801
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:38,465
Guess I'll keep looking!
802
00:37:38,467 --> 00:37:40,458
- I think we should
keep looking too.
803
00:37:40,460 --> 00:37:41,673
- All right!
804
00:37:41,675 --> 00:37:44,071
Hard to beat perfect,
but I'll try.
805
00:37:44,073 --> 00:37:45,759
Bye, Mr. Wilson!
806
00:37:45,761 --> 00:37:47,210
- See ya!
807
00:37:47,212 --> 00:37:48,492
(Chuckling)
808
00:37:48,494 --> 00:37:50,249
- Funny to see you here.
809
00:37:50,251 --> 00:37:55,921
- 50/50 chance. Only 2 tree
lots in the whole town.
810
00:37:55,923 --> 00:37:59,600
- (Women on radio):
♪ There's a place not toofar ♪
811
00:37:59,602 --> 00:38:01,154
♪ With tree and a star ♪
812
00:38:01,156 --> 00:38:02,943
♪ There might be mistletoe ♪
813
00:38:02,945 --> 00:38:05,171
♪ You won't knowunless you go... ♪
814
00:38:05,173 --> 00:38:07,230
- Oh, that's a beauty!
815
00:38:07,232 --> 00:38:08,951
- Clementine?
816
00:38:08,953 --> 00:38:12,598
- In Northpole, we light up
a tree every day of the
year.
817
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,299
- What are you doing here,
and where's your hat?
818
00:38:17,292 --> 00:38:19,079
- Oh! Gosh, I am
such a snowflake!
819
00:38:19,082 --> 00:38:22,794
- Hurry and get back to
my house before anyone sees
you!
820
00:38:22,796 --> 00:38:24,954
- OK!
- Go!
821
00:38:24,956 --> 00:38:27,858
- (Chelsea): Kevin told me
about the Christmas project.
822
00:38:27,860 --> 00:38:30,288
- Yeah, I asked them
to think big,
823
00:38:30,290 --> 00:38:31,571
and boy, did he ever!
824
00:38:31,573 --> 00:38:33,834
- Fostering imagination is fine,
825
00:38:33,836 --> 00:38:37,007
but your assignment is
enabling
his whole Northpole fantasy.
826
00:38:37,009 --> 00:38:39,201
- Just because you
can't see something
827
00:38:39,203 --> 00:38:40,923
doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
828
00:38:40,925 --> 00:38:42,746
- Like elves, right?
- No, but...
829
00:38:42,748 --> 00:38:44,198
- Look, it's fine being the one
830
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,920
filling his head
with sugarplums,
831
00:38:45,922 --> 00:38:48,823
but I'll be dealing with
the sugar crash when it
comes,
832
00:38:48,825 --> 00:38:52,470
and believe me, it will!
833
00:38:52,472 --> 00:38:56,723
- You ever notice how
Christmas
trees are kind of like
people?
834
00:38:56,725 --> 00:38:58,850
- What do you mean?
835
00:38:58,852 --> 00:39:00,976
- Well, some trees
are too sappy.
836
00:39:00,978 --> 00:39:02,699
- That's for sure.
837
00:39:02,701 --> 00:39:05,805
- The other trees,
they're just, like,
838
00:39:05,807 --> 00:39:08,000
well, they're just
way too prickly.
839
00:39:08,002 --> 00:39:09,349
You can't get near 'em.
840
00:39:09,351 --> 00:39:11,511
- Hmm! Yeah, I get it.
841
00:39:11,513 --> 00:39:13,874
- Look, Kevin is just
looking at things
842
00:39:13,876 --> 00:39:15,899
a little differently, you know?
843
00:39:15,901 --> 00:39:19,241
Something I think everyone
should do once in a while.
844
00:39:23,260 --> 00:39:24,509
You OK?
845
00:39:24,511 --> 00:39:25,690
- Yeah, I thought I...
846
00:39:27,243 --> 00:39:29,404
Nothing.
847
00:39:32,342 --> 00:39:33,826
(Talking indistinctly)
848
00:39:33,828 --> 00:39:34,873
(Grunting)
849
00:39:34,875 --> 00:39:36,695
- Ah!
850
00:39:36,697 --> 00:39:39,971
- Perfect! Now, if someone
would
just call me an ambulance...
851
00:39:39,973 --> 00:39:42,233
- I thought you were
a mountain man, huh?
852
00:39:42,235 --> 00:39:44,055
- Only in my mind, not my back.
853
00:39:44,057 --> 00:39:46,588
- Thank you. We never
would've
gotten this monster in here
854
00:39:46,590 --> 00:39:48,512
if you didn't offer to help.
855
00:39:48,514 --> 00:39:49,896
- My pleasure!
856
00:39:49,898 --> 00:39:52,023
- Maybe some hot chocolate
857
00:39:52,025 --> 00:39:53,778
will make your back feel better?
858
00:39:53,780 --> 00:39:54,758
- Terrific!
859
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,052
- Two marshmallows
in mine, please!
860
00:39:57,054 --> 00:39:58,673
- I know, I know!
861
00:40:02,895 --> 00:40:08,026
(Clementine talking, indistinct)
862
00:40:08,028 --> 00:40:11,874
- (Clementine's mother):
I don't know what to say,honey.
863
00:40:11,876 --> 00:40:13,663
- I know, Mom.
I worry too.
864
00:40:13,665 --> 00:40:15,453
So things are getting worse?
865
00:40:15,455 --> 00:40:17,985
- I'm afraid so.
866
00:40:17,987 --> 00:40:20,145
Assembly lines have slowed,
867
00:40:20,147 --> 00:40:22,542
and elves are starting to talk
868
00:40:22,544 --> 00:40:27,133
about not being able to
supply
enough toys for Christmas.
869
00:40:27,135 --> 00:40:30,037
- Don't let your candy cane
lose its stripes, Mom.
870
00:40:30,039 --> 00:40:32,063
We're working on it.
871
00:40:32,065 --> 00:40:35,776
- I know you are, honey,
but don't get your hopes up.
872
00:40:35,778 --> 00:40:38,172
It looks like this problem
may be even bigger
873
00:40:38,174 --> 00:40:39,523
than your determination.
874
00:40:43,575 --> 00:40:48,232
- Tomorrow, we kick
things up a notch.
875
00:40:48,234 --> 00:40:50,729
- Kevin's talking
to his imaginary elf.
876
00:40:50,732 --> 00:40:53,566
I wish he would
just make one real friend.
877
00:40:53,568 --> 00:40:56,673
- Well, I was 12 when our
family moved us to Colorado.
878
00:40:56,675 --> 00:40:59,711
I became a little withdrawn,
but, hey, look at me now!
879
00:40:59,713 --> 00:41:01,127
(Groaning)
880
00:41:01,129 --> 00:41:02,344
(Chuckling)
881
00:41:02,346 --> 00:41:04,403
Wow, nice Christmas display!
882
00:41:04,405 --> 00:41:06,259
All you need now
is a nativity scene
883
00:41:06,261 --> 00:41:07,779
made out of office supplies.
884
00:41:07,781 --> 00:41:10,074
- Yeah, I tend to
bring my work home.
885
00:41:11,627 --> 00:41:14,497
- Oh, that isn't
Greenwood Park, is it?
886
00:41:14,499 --> 00:41:17,704
- Yeah! Did you know it used
to
be called Christmas Tree
Park?
887
00:41:17,706 --> 00:41:20,844
It's been having tree
lightings
for almost a century.
888
00:41:20,846 --> 00:41:23,004
- Hmm, it was so
cared for back then.
889
00:41:23,006 --> 00:41:24,456
Look at these two!
890
00:41:24,458 --> 00:41:25,805
(Chelsea chuckling)
891
00:41:26,987 --> 00:41:29,823
(Cell phone ringing)
892
00:41:29,825 --> 00:41:32,252
Go ahead and take it.
I gotta get going.
893
00:41:32,254 --> 00:41:33,874
- OK. Thanks, though,
894
00:41:33,876 --> 00:41:35,832
for helping us with
the Christmas tree.
895
00:41:35,834 --> 00:41:37,250
(Chuckling)
896
00:41:38,736 --> 00:41:40,625
(Door opening and closing)
897
00:41:40,627 --> 00:41:41,801
Hello?
898
00:41:41,803 --> 00:41:43,886
- This is Watson Elementary.
899
00:41:43,888 --> 00:41:46,979
We're having an after-school
assembly tomorrow,
900
00:41:46,981 --> 00:41:50,005
so pickup will be
at 5:00 p.m.
901
00:41:50,007 --> 00:41:52,122
Merry Christmas! Beep!
902
00:41:54,005 --> 00:41:56,290
- You're not supposed
to say the beep.
903
00:41:56,292 --> 00:41:59,282
- Oh, sorry! I was
just so in the moment.
904
00:42:00,896 --> 00:42:02,441
- (Chelsea):
Mr. Pendleton?
905
00:42:02,443 --> 00:42:03,752
- Yes?
906
00:42:03,754 --> 00:42:06,004
- Chelsea Hastings
with The Examiner. Hi!
907
00:42:06,006 --> 00:42:08,659
- I have a publicist that
deals with press inquiries.
908
00:42:08,661 --> 00:42:10,711
If you'd like to
make an appointment...
909
00:42:10,713 --> 00:42:13,063
- I just wanted to ask
you a couple questions
910
00:42:13,065 --> 00:42:15,148
about your plans
for Greenwood Park.
911
00:42:15,150 --> 00:42:18,206
Look, I understand that you
had
a crew surveying the
property.
912
00:42:18,208 --> 00:42:21,165
Do you and the mayor have
plans that I don't know
about?
913
00:42:21,167 --> 00:42:23,383
- Please, just take
my word for it:
914
00:42:23,385 --> 00:42:26,409
After the holidays,
it'll all sort itself out.
915
00:42:26,411 --> 00:42:28,727
- I would be a lousy reporter
916
00:42:28,729 --> 00:42:31,484
if I took everybody's
word at face value.
917
00:42:31,486 --> 00:42:34,644
- I'm sorry, I really
can't comment any further.
918
00:42:34,646 --> 00:42:36,964
(Cell ringing)
919
00:42:38,410 --> 00:42:39,417
- Mr. Jenkins!
920
00:42:39,419 --> 00:42:40,965
- Drop whatever you're doing.
921
00:42:40,967 --> 00:42:43,115
There's a protest going
on at Greenwood Park.
922
00:42:43,117 --> 00:42:44,325
I need you there.
923
00:42:44,327 --> 00:42:45,973
- Greenwood Park?
924
00:42:45,975 --> 00:42:48,695
- Why are we still
talking, Hastings?
925
00:42:48,697 --> 00:42:51,048
- I'm on it, sir.
926
00:42:51,050 --> 00:42:53,838
- (Man): We need you all to
stand back. Just stand back.
927
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,686
- Excuse me.
Oh, sorry!
928
00:42:55,688 --> 00:42:57,469
- (Man on walkie-talkie):
10-4.
929
00:42:57,471 --> 00:42:59,922
- Copy desk?
Hey, this is Chelsea.
930
00:42:59,924 --> 00:43:03,317
I'm here at the protest.
Can I dictate a story?
931
00:43:03,319 --> 00:43:06,342
Jenkins will want this
on the website ASAP.
932
00:43:06,344 --> 00:43:08,359
Yeah.
933
00:43:08,362 --> 00:43:09,839
(Panting)
934
00:43:09,841 --> 00:43:11,419
A lone protester
in Greenwood Park
935
00:43:11,421 --> 00:43:14,175
caused emergency vehicles
to come out this afternoon.
936
00:43:14,177 --> 00:43:16,359
- He's really wedged
in up there, Captain.
937
00:43:16,361 --> 00:43:17,704
Bucket's going up now.
938
00:43:17,706 --> 00:43:19,285
- Fire officials have gathered
939
00:43:19,287 --> 00:43:22,847
to try to coax down
the reluctant figure
940
00:43:22,849 --> 00:43:24,931
suspended 50 feet
above the ice rink.
941
00:43:24,933 --> 00:43:27,386
As far as a statement
from the protester...
942
00:43:27,388 --> 00:43:28,965
- Hey, Mom!
943
00:43:30,243 --> 00:43:31,923
- Kevin?
944
00:43:31,925 --> 00:43:34,075
What are you doing up there?
945
00:43:34,077 --> 00:43:35,486
- Stringing up decorations!
946
00:43:35,488 --> 00:43:38,142
Figured if nobody else
would do it, we would.
947
00:43:38,144 --> 00:43:39,990
- Sir, that... that's
my son up there!
948
00:43:39,992 --> 00:43:42,579
- So I gathered. Ma'am,
why don't you step aside?
949
00:43:42,581 --> 00:43:44,159
We'll handle this.
950
00:43:44,161 --> 00:43:47,016
- As long as he's up there,
I'm staying right here.
951
00:43:47,018 --> 00:43:49,638
- I see the ornament doesn't
fall far from the tree.
952
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,562
(Captain chuckling)
953
00:43:52,564 --> 00:43:54,244
- (Man):
You got him?
954
00:43:54,246 --> 00:43:57,168
(Crane beeping)
955
00:44:02,614 --> 00:44:05,740
- I can almost see
our house from up there!
956
00:44:05,742 --> 00:44:09,235
- Yeah? Did you also see me
lose 10 years off my life?
957
00:44:09,237 --> 00:44:10,916
Oh gosh! Oh!
Thank you!
958
00:44:10,918 --> 00:44:12,966
Honey, I thought
you were supposed to be
959
00:44:12,968 --> 00:44:14,950
at a school assembly
meeting friends!
960
00:44:14,952 --> 00:44:17,235
- I was actually here
with a friend.
961
00:44:17,237 --> 00:44:21,975
Clementine? Clementine!
962
00:44:21,977 --> 00:44:25,203
Huh! She was just
here a second ago.
963
00:44:25,205 --> 00:44:27,119
- Clementine? The elf?
964
00:44:27,121 --> 00:44:28,395
- Exactly!
965
00:44:28,397 --> 00:44:30,581
- We're going home right now.
966
00:44:33,808 --> 00:44:36,027
- I heard what happened.
Is Kevin all right?
967
00:44:36,029 --> 00:44:38,378
- If you consider grounded
for life all right.
968
00:44:38,380 --> 00:44:40,295
I knew this was gonna happen.
969
00:44:40,297 --> 00:44:42,615
- (Woman on TV): Firemenwerecalled to Greenwood Park,
970
00:44:42,617 --> 00:44:44,967
where a child was pulled
from a 60-foot tree...
971
00:44:44,969 --> 00:44:47,959
- Get your facts straight!
It was a 50-foot tree!
972
00:44:47,961 --> 00:44:50,515
- More strange activity
with the Northern Lights.
973
00:44:50,517 --> 00:44:52,464
- Well, at least he wasn't hurt.
974
00:44:52,466 --> 00:44:54,010
- Yeah, but he could've been,
975
00:44:54,012 --> 00:44:56,631
all because of the ceremony
that nobody cares about
976
00:44:56,633 --> 00:44:58,952
and a park that's not
gonna exist in a month.
977
00:44:58,954 --> 00:45:01,775
- What do you mean,
isn't gonna exist in a
month?
978
00:45:01,777 --> 00:45:04,632
- Mr. Pendleton, the
developer,
he's building condos on it.
979
00:45:04,634 --> 00:45:06,985
- What? How could that guy
be such a Scrooge?
980
00:45:06,987 --> 00:45:09,808
- I don't know. If I knew,
maybe I could change his
mind.
981
00:45:09,810 --> 00:45:12,027
But right now, what
I'm worried about is Kevin.
982
00:45:12,029 --> 00:45:14,851
This whole thing has
gotten out of hand!
983
00:45:14,853 --> 00:45:16,936
- OK, OK!
Look, let's just take it
easy.
984
00:45:16,938 --> 00:45:18,582
- OK, this is what I'm gonna do:
985
00:45:18,584 --> 00:45:19,960
I'm gonna pack our bags,
986
00:45:19,962 --> 00:45:22,516
book us tickets to someplace
warm for the holidays,
987
00:45:22,518 --> 00:45:24,935
away from this town
and your little assignment
988
00:45:24,937 --> 00:45:27,322
that turned into
Kevin's mission!
989
00:45:27,324 --> 00:45:29,406
- No! I can't leave now!
990
00:45:29,408 --> 00:45:31,020
It's too important!
991
00:45:31,022 --> 00:45:32,499
You gotta believe me!
992
00:45:32,501 --> 00:45:35,255
- Honey, it's a fantasy.
It's not real!
993
00:45:35,257 --> 00:45:36,700
- Yes, it is!
994
00:45:36,702 --> 00:45:39,255
- You listen to me, Mister!
- No, you're wrong!
995
00:45:39,257 --> 00:45:42,752
Just 'cause you don't think
it's
real, doesn't mean it isn't!
996
00:45:42,754 --> 00:45:46,313
- Kevin! Honey!
997
00:45:46,315 --> 00:45:47,828
Kevin!
998
00:45:47,830 --> 00:45:49,912
- He's just a little
boy, Chelsea,
999
00:45:49,914 --> 00:45:52,230
who isn't quite ready
to grow up.
1000
00:45:52,232 --> 00:45:56,332
- Yeah, I know 2 people
who are stuck in that phase.
1001
00:45:56,334 --> 00:45:59,659
- Which is probably why
it's so hard for you to
decide
1002
00:45:59,662 --> 00:46:02,684
whether to let Kevin stay
in his own little world
1003
00:46:02,686 --> 00:46:05,407
or drag him kicking and
screaming into yours.
1004
00:46:05,409 --> 00:46:08,164
- Good night, Mr. Wilson.
1005
00:46:11,728 --> 00:46:14,819
(Door opening and closing)
1006
00:46:14,821 --> 00:46:16,836
(Sighing)
1007
00:46:16,838 --> 00:46:20,399
- This Pendleton guy
wants to demolish the park!
- Kevin!
1008
00:46:20,401 --> 00:46:22,987
- So there will never be
a tree lighting ever again!
1009
00:46:22,989 --> 00:46:26,685
- I know! I heard
everything,
including what your mom said
1010
00:46:26,687 --> 00:46:29,945
about wishing she knew why
Mr. Pendleton is such a
Scrooge!
1011
00:46:29,948 --> 00:46:31,324
Which gave me an idea.
1012
00:46:31,326 --> 00:46:34,585
OK, grab your coat,
and let's go.
1013
00:46:43,661 --> 00:46:45,812
(Sighing)
1014
00:46:47,796 --> 00:46:49,778
(Knocking)
1015
00:46:49,780 --> 00:46:51,190
- Kevin?
1016
00:46:51,192 --> 00:46:52,535
(Knocking)
1017
00:46:52,537 --> 00:46:54,047
Kevin?
1018
00:46:59,695 --> 00:47:01,611
Kevin?
1019
00:47:03,293 --> 00:47:05,476
- So, tell me why
we're here again?
1020
00:47:05,478 --> 00:47:07,628
- To find out why
Mr. Pendleton is so mean,
1021
00:47:07,630 --> 00:47:09,847
he would cut down
the city's Christmas tree.
1022
00:47:09,849 --> 00:47:11,628
I mean, who would
do such a thing?
1023
00:47:11,630 --> 00:47:13,778
And maybe whatever we find,
your mom can use
1024
00:47:13,780 --> 00:47:16,670
to help bring the
tree-lighting
ceremony back on track.
1025
00:47:16,672 --> 00:47:19,426
- Sounds like kind
of a long shot.
1026
00:47:19,428 --> 00:47:20,972
(Sighing)
1027
00:47:20,974 --> 00:47:24,469
- Right now, my friend,
it's the only shot we got.
1028
00:47:25,847 --> 00:47:27,763
(Giggling)
1029
00:47:27,765 --> 00:47:32,335
- I checked State Street and
the park on my way back
over.
1030
00:47:32,337 --> 00:47:33,746
- I shouldn't have
been so hard on him.
1031
00:47:33,748 --> 00:47:36,602
- I shouldn't have
encouraged
him in the first place.
1032
00:47:36,604 --> 00:47:39,192
- I'm gonna call the police.
1033
00:47:40,638 --> 00:47:43,460
(Electricity crackling)
1034
00:47:44,639 --> 00:47:46,485
- What do you think
Santa will do
1035
00:47:46,487 --> 00:47:49,142
if he catches us sneaking
into the archives?
1036
00:47:49,144 --> 00:47:51,158
- Don't know and
don't wanna find out,
1037
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:52,974
so pipe down!
1038
00:47:56,268 --> 00:47:57,915
(Whispering):
Right here.
1039
00:47:57,917 --> 00:47:59,455
- Hurry!
1040
00:47:59,457 --> 00:48:02,736
If my mom checks out my room
and sees that I'm not there,
1041
00:48:02,738 --> 00:48:05,346
she'll have bloodhounds
looking for me!
1042
00:48:05,348 --> 00:48:09,163
- We're getting
warmer and warmer
1043
00:48:09,165 --> 00:48:10,904
and warmer and...
1044
00:48:10,906 --> 00:48:12,176
(Gasping)
1045
00:48:12,178 --> 00:48:13,784
Bingo!
1046
00:48:13,786 --> 00:48:16,528
We've narrowed it down
to the past 50 years!
1047
00:48:17,868 --> 00:48:19,174
- Another power dip.
1048
00:48:19,176 --> 00:48:21,383
- Because we're running
out of magic snow.
1049
00:48:21,384 --> 00:48:23,994
- How many Ernie Q.
Pendletons can there be?
1050
00:48:23,996 --> 00:48:25,901
- Apparently a lot.
1051
00:48:25,903 --> 00:48:28,076
- What were those
mothers thinking?
1052
00:48:28,078 --> 00:48:29,918
- Oh!
1053
00:48:31,025 --> 00:48:32,429
Got it!
1054
00:48:32,431 --> 00:48:33,734
Wow!
1055
00:48:33,736 --> 00:48:35,676
Age 7, 8 and 9,
1056
00:48:35,678 --> 00:48:38,755
all he asked for
was a gift for a penny.
1057
00:48:38,757 --> 00:48:41,201
Money must've gone a lot
further in those days!
1058
00:48:41,203 --> 00:48:44,247
- They weren't gifts
for a penny.
1059
00:48:44,249 --> 00:48:46,791
They were gifts for
a person named Penny.
1060
00:48:46,793 --> 00:48:49,234
"Dear Santa,
can you please bring
1061
00:48:49,236 --> 00:48:51,545
"some white ice skates, size 4,
1062
00:48:51,547 --> 00:48:53,152
"to my friend, Penny,
1063
00:48:53,154 --> 00:48:55,026
"so we can skate together.
1064
00:48:55,028 --> 00:48:57,169
"Her mom is sick,
1065
00:48:57,171 --> 00:49:00,015
"and her dad says they don't
have any money for skates.
1066
00:49:00,017 --> 00:49:01,622
"Thank you. Ernie."
1067
00:49:01,624 --> 00:49:04,265
- All he asked for
was gifts for her!
1068
00:49:04,267 --> 00:49:06,140
- But nothing for himself!
1069
00:49:06,142 --> 00:49:10,794
- Which means maybe
he's not all bad.
1070
00:49:10,796 --> 00:49:12,568
- We gotta show mom!
1071
00:49:12,570 --> 00:49:13,907
- Yeah!
1072
00:49:13,909 --> 00:49:15,614
OK, help me!
1073
00:49:17,389 --> 00:49:18,928
Come!
1074
00:49:20,737 --> 00:49:22,980
- I need to file a missing
person's report.
1075
00:49:22,982 --> 00:49:24,150
- (Kevin): Mom!
1076
00:49:24,152 --> 00:49:25,154
- Never mind.
1077
00:49:25,156 --> 00:49:26,394
Kevin?
1078
00:49:26,396 --> 00:49:28,167
Honey!
1079
00:49:28,169 --> 00:49:31,215
I have been so
worried about you!
1080
00:49:31,217 --> 00:49:32,654
Where have you been?
1081
00:49:32,656 --> 00:49:35,800
- Collecting information
for you about Mr. Pendleton.
1082
00:49:35,802 --> 00:49:37,106
- What? Information?
1083
00:49:37,108 --> 00:49:39,850
- Yeah, about why he's so mean,
1084
00:49:39,852 --> 00:49:42,932
and it turns out maybe
you were wrong about him.
1085
00:49:42,934 --> 00:49:44,806
Maybe he is a good guy.
1086
00:49:44,808 --> 00:49:47,149
Look! When he was a kid,
1087
00:49:47,151 --> 00:49:50,464
he never asked for
any presents for himself,
1088
00:49:50,466 --> 00:49:53,845
only for somebody named Penny.
1089
00:49:53,847 --> 00:49:55,451
(Sighing)
1090
00:49:55,453 --> 00:49:57,460
- Where did you get this?
1091
00:49:57,462 --> 00:49:58,699
- Uh...
1092
00:49:58,701 --> 00:49:59,836
- Kevin!
1093
00:49:59,838 --> 00:50:01,576
- Northpole.
1094
00:50:01,578 --> 00:50:03,218
We found it in Santa's files.
1095
00:50:03,220 --> 00:50:04,490
- (Chelsea): "We"?
1096
00:50:04,492 --> 00:50:07,135
As in you and
Clementine, the elf?
1097
00:50:08,375 --> 00:50:09,712
(Sighing)
1098
00:50:09,714 --> 00:50:11,151
Honey, listen to me.
1099
00:50:11,153 --> 00:50:13,195
You know you're the
most precious thing
1100
00:50:13,197 --> 00:50:14,433
in the world to me, right?
1101
00:50:14,435 --> 00:50:15,973
- Of course.
1102
00:50:15,975 --> 00:50:17,848
I didn't mean to scare you, Mom,
1103
00:50:17,850 --> 00:50:21,496
but I thought it was
important,
'cause it might help
protect...
1104
00:50:21,498 --> 00:50:23,404
- (Both): Northpole.
1105
00:50:23,406 --> 00:50:26,116
- And Christmas?
- Right.
1106
00:50:26,118 --> 00:50:29,597
'Cause even though
you don't believe it,
1107
00:50:29,599 --> 00:50:31,204
I know it's real.
1108
00:50:36,662 --> 00:50:38,871
(Sighing)
1109
00:50:38,873 --> 00:50:40,880
- I, um...
1110
00:50:40,882 --> 00:50:43,357
I believe that you believe.
1111
00:50:44,864 --> 00:50:46,537
And that's good enough for me.
1112
00:50:46,539 --> 00:50:49,651
- Really?
- Yeah.
1113
00:50:49,653 --> 00:50:51,826
And if you say
spreading holiday cheer
1114
00:50:51,828 --> 00:50:53,667
is the only way
to save Northpole,
1115
00:50:53,669 --> 00:50:55,743
then we better find
a way to do it.
1116
00:50:55,745 --> 00:50:57,383
(Doorbell ringing)
1117
00:50:57,385 --> 00:51:00,229
- Oh, that'll be Clementine!
1118
00:51:01,568 --> 00:51:03,442
- This should be interesting.
1119
00:51:03,444 --> 00:51:06,355
(Door opening and closing)
1120
00:51:06,357 --> 00:51:09,368
- Hey, Ms. Hastings!
I'm Clementine!
1121
00:51:09,370 --> 00:51:11,142
- She's the one I've been
telling you guys about.
1122
00:51:11,144 --> 00:51:13,853
- Right! You're the, um...
1123
00:51:13,855 --> 00:51:16,131
- Only member of Kevin's
Christmas Committee!
1124
00:51:23,998 --> 00:51:27,880
- Listen, um, thanks
for being here for me.
1125
00:51:27,882 --> 00:51:31,228
I think maybe I was a little
over the top, and I'm sorry.
1126
00:51:31,230 --> 00:51:32,433
(Chuckling)
1127
00:51:32,435 --> 00:51:34,709
- Well, I might not
have any kids of my own,
1128
00:51:34,711 --> 00:51:37,589
but from 8:00 to 3:00,
I have 30, so I can
empathize.
1129
00:51:37,591 --> 00:51:39,597
For what it's worth,
1130
00:51:39,599 --> 00:51:42,510
I think it was a wise choice
to play along with the
fantasy.
1131
00:51:42,512 --> 00:51:44,183
At least for now.
- Yeah.
1132
00:51:44,185 --> 00:51:46,226
He's not gonna be
innocent for much longer,
1133
00:51:46,228 --> 00:51:49,037
and I guess it's better to
embrace it than to cut it
short.
1134
00:51:49,039 --> 00:51:50,678
You helped me see that.
1135
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:51,950
- Does that mean the mission
1136
00:51:51,952 --> 00:51:53,422
to save Northpole's back on?
1137
00:51:53,424 --> 00:51:55,097
- Well, we've met Clementine!
1138
00:51:55,099 --> 00:51:56,804
We can't let her
be homeless, right?
1139
00:51:56,806 --> 00:51:58,411
- We?
1140
00:51:58,412 --> 00:52:00,185
You still want me
along for the ride?
1141
00:52:00,187 --> 00:52:03,400
- Well, are you willing?
- Why would you think
otherwise?
1142
00:52:03,402 --> 00:52:05,072
- Ask me when we have more time.
1143
00:52:05,074 --> 00:52:07,852
Right now, we have a tree
lighting to save, right?
1144
00:52:09,191 --> 00:52:11,065
- All right, I'll see you.
1145
00:52:11,067 --> 00:52:13,676
- OK. Good night!
- Good night!
1146
00:52:15,953 --> 00:52:17,660
- Mmm!
1147
00:52:19,870 --> 00:52:21,745
- OK, so, how's
this gonna work, Mom?
1148
00:52:21,747 --> 00:52:23,552
- Yeah, how's this gonna work?
1149
00:52:23,554 --> 00:52:26,832
- I suggest a 2-prong
attack.
You guys spread the word.
1150
00:52:26,834 --> 00:52:28,507
- Sounds good to me!
- Cool!
1151
00:52:28,509 --> 00:52:30,682
- We're gonna need food,
funds and a permit.
1152
00:52:30,684 --> 00:52:31,887
- We're on it!
1153
00:52:31,889 --> 00:52:33,327
- And I'll get something
1154
00:52:33,329 --> 00:52:34,331
even more important.
1155
00:52:34,333 --> 00:52:35,402
- And what's that?
1156
00:52:35,404 --> 00:52:41,495
- Leverage.
1157
00:52:41,497 --> 00:52:44,374
- I got the list of the
mayor's
biggest campaign donors.
1158
00:52:44,377 --> 00:52:46,985
Guess who's at the top:
Mr. & Mrs. Ernie Pendleton.
1159
00:52:46,987 --> 00:52:48,526
Uh-huh. Oh!
1160
00:52:48,528 --> 00:52:51,438
Yeah, I gotta go. I'll see
you back at the office.
1161
00:53:07,641 --> 00:53:10,319
- Excuse me, sir,
I think you dropped this.
1162
00:53:10,321 --> 00:53:12,160
- (Man): No.
1163
00:53:12,162 --> 00:53:13,767
- Get some food, OK?
1164
00:53:19,894 --> 00:53:22,739
- Hey, Chelsea!
- Ah...
1165
00:53:22,741 --> 00:53:25,752
- Don't worry! I'm not gonna
try
and set you up with anyone.
1166
00:53:25,754 --> 00:53:27,693
I just wanna see how
your story's going.
1167
00:53:27,695 --> 00:53:30,071
- Well, you know, a couple
things aren't adding up.
1168
00:53:30,072 --> 00:53:32,547
I could clear up one thing
if the planning commission
1169
00:53:32,549 --> 00:53:34,523
wasn't closed for Christmas.
1170
00:53:34,525 --> 00:53:36,531
- A woman I sing
with at church works
1171
00:53:36,533 --> 00:53:38,071
for the planning commission.
1172
00:53:38,073 --> 00:53:40,849
- Seriously?
- She'll be at practice
tonight.
1173
00:53:40,851 --> 00:53:42,357
Maybe she can help.
1174
00:53:42,358 --> 00:53:44,063
- You are a lifesaver!
1175
00:53:44,065 --> 00:53:47,076
- I just hope you
can carry a tune.
1176
00:53:47,078 --> 00:53:48,482
- (Laughing): Yeah!
1177
00:53:48,484 --> 00:53:50,993
(♪ Jingle Bells ♪)
1178
00:53:50,995 --> 00:53:53,370
- Donate to the town
tree lighting!
1179
00:53:54,810 --> 00:53:56,718
Save a Christmas tradition!
1180
00:53:56,720 --> 00:53:59,295
- Here's a buck for
some trumpet lessons.
1181
00:54:01,205 --> 00:54:03,380
- Normally, I would
be offended by that,
1182
00:54:03,382 --> 00:54:05,722
but it's for a good
cause, so thank you, sir!
1183
00:54:05,724 --> 00:54:07,129
- Merry Christmas!
1184
00:54:07,131 --> 00:54:08,534
- How's our website doing?
1185
00:54:08,536 --> 00:54:09,806
Any better than we are?
1186
00:54:09,808 --> 00:54:11,380
- Well, we've only got 5 hits,
1187
00:54:11,382 --> 00:54:13,322
and four of them are me!
1188
00:54:13,324 --> 00:54:15,631
- Which means
we've already had one hit!
1189
00:54:15,633 --> 00:54:17,172
- (Ryan and Kevin):
Yeah!
1190
00:54:17,174 --> 00:54:18,979
- Hey, guys!
1191
00:54:18,981 --> 00:54:22,595
- Hey, Mom! How's your side
of the attack going?
1192
00:54:22,597 --> 00:54:24,804
- It's coming along.
How about you guys?
1193
00:54:24,806 --> 00:54:26,278
- So far, we've raised $4,
1194
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,554
including 2 Canadian
quarters and a bus token!
1195
00:54:28,556 --> 00:54:31,734
- So, that puts us at about
98% short of our goal. Hmm!
1196
00:54:31,736 --> 00:54:34,513
- (Ryan):
Or 2% closer to victory!
1197
00:54:34,515 --> 00:54:37,659
- I think we need to find a
better way to get the word
out.
1198
00:54:37,661 --> 00:54:39,835
- You know, I think
I just might have one.
1199
00:54:41,879 --> 00:54:43,551
- (Chelsea): Seriously?
1200
00:54:43,553 --> 00:54:46,363
We're supposed to change
minds
with tree scraps?
1201
00:54:46,365 --> 00:54:50,246
- Well, you call them
scraps.
I call them festive pine
art.
1202
00:54:50,248 --> 00:54:52,591
- (Chuckling): Well,
either way, it'll be fun,
1203
00:54:52,593 --> 00:54:54,131
which, as they say back home,
1204
00:54:54,133 --> 00:54:56,039
is the best reason
to do anything.
1205
00:55:01,094 --> 00:55:02,834
- Hi there!
I'm Ryan Wilson.
1206
00:55:02,836 --> 00:55:04,942
This is Chelsea Hastings.
- (Chelsea): Hi!
1207
00:55:04,944 --> 00:55:06,416
- Any chance you remember
1208
00:55:06,418 --> 00:55:08,056
the tree lighting
in Greenwood Park?
1209
00:55:08,058 --> 00:55:10,400
- Oh, I do!
1210
00:55:10,402 --> 00:55:12,677
Haven't thought
about it in years.
1211
00:55:12,679 --> 00:55:15,756
But it was beautiful,
and so much fun!
1212
00:55:15,758 --> 00:55:19,103
- Well, it can be again,
with your help.
1213
00:55:20,041 --> 00:55:21,447
Hope to see you there!
1214
00:55:21,449 --> 00:55:23,489
(Woman chuckling)
1215
00:55:25,398 --> 00:55:27,874
- Can any woman
resist your charm?
1216
00:55:27,876 --> 00:55:30,988
- I'm hoping one woman can't.
1217
00:55:30,990 --> 00:55:33,297
(Chuckling)
1218
00:55:33,299 --> 00:55:36,745
- So, how'd you get
into teaching, huh?
1219
00:55:36,747 --> 00:55:40,562
- Uh, well, after college,
I did a lot of jobs,
1220
00:55:40,564 --> 00:55:42,838
but teaching is the best by far.
1221
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:44,484
- Really? Why?
1222
00:55:44,486 --> 00:55:46,733
- Light bulbs.
- Light bulbs?
1223
00:55:46,735 --> 00:55:48,747
- Yeah, turning on
over kids' heads
1224
00:55:48,749 --> 00:55:50,863
when a concept they've
been struggling with
1225
00:55:50,865 --> 00:55:52,070
finally sinks in.
1226
00:55:52,072 --> 00:55:53,212
- Hmm...
- I love that.
1227
00:55:53,214 --> 00:55:55,529
Oh, hey!
- (Man): Hi there!
1228
00:55:55,531 --> 00:55:57,979
- Hope to see you there.
- Thanks!
1229
00:55:57,981 --> 00:56:01,371
- Merry Christmas!
- (Man): You too!
1230
00:56:01,373 --> 00:56:02,612
(Clearing throat)
1231
00:56:02,614 --> 00:56:05,567
- Must be a challenge,
being a single mom.
1232
00:56:05,569 --> 00:56:07,883
- It was definitely
hard the first year
1233
00:56:07,885 --> 00:56:09,326
after Kevin's father left.
1234
00:56:09,328 --> 00:56:11,007
But I never had any illusions
1235
00:56:11,009 --> 00:56:13,725
that the world would
make it easy for me, so...
1236
00:56:13,727 --> 00:56:16,210
- Is that why you're
such a skeptic?
1237
00:56:16,212 --> 00:56:17,519
(Chuckling)
1238
00:56:17,522 --> 00:56:19,902
- Well, partially by
nature, partially my job,
1239
00:56:19,904 --> 00:56:22,924
and partially the result of
living with Kevin's father.
1240
00:56:22,926 --> 00:56:25,509
- Hmm... Feel like
telling me about him?
1241
00:56:25,511 --> 00:56:26,886
Oh, hey!
- (Woman): Hi!
1242
00:56:26,888 --> 00:56:29,437
- Here you go!
Hope to see you there!
1243
00:56:29,439 --> 00:56:30,983
- Thanks!
1244
00:56:31,822 --> 00:56:34,373
- Yeah, sure! Um...
1245
00:56:34,375 --> 00:56:37,663
We met in college,
both English majors.
1246
00:56:37,665 --> 00:56:40,617
I wanted to be a journalist,
he wanted to be a novelist.
1247
00:56:40,619 --> 00:56:43,269
Only difference is
I worked towards my goal,
1248
00:56:43,271 --> 00:56:44,679
and he only dreamed of his.
1249
00:56:44,681 --> 00:56:46,325
- Where is he now?
1250
00:56:46,327 --> 00:56:47,534
- Oh! I don't know.
1251
00:56:47,536 --> 00:56:49,480
Probably some place
with coconuts,
1252
00:56:49,482 --> 00:56:51,294
dreaming of his first draft.
1253
00:56:51,296 --> 00:56:54,281
- (Clementine, giggling):
Oh, look! Here's more
people.
1254
00:56:54,283 --> 00:56:56,026
- (Kevin):
Special delivery!
1255
00:56:56,028 --> 00:56:57,940
Tree lighting on Christmas Eve!
1256
00:56:57,942 --> 00:57:00,190
- Ah! That fella
could pull a sleigh!
1257
00:57:00,192 --> 00:57:02,641
Hope to see you
at the tree lighting.
1258
00:57:03,482 --> 00:57:05,192
Whoo!
1259
00:57:05,194 --> 00:57:07,779
- (Ryan): Once you make
learning fun, my job's easy.
1260
00:57:07,781 --> 00:57:09,288
- Fun? Yeah...
1261
00:57:09,290 --> 00:57:11,101
Come to the tree lighting.
- Thanks!
1262
00:57:11,103 --> 00:57:13,653
- I used to have some of
that
before the responsibility
1263
00:57:13,655 --> 00:57:15,969
of a pesky thing
called paying the bills.
1264
00:57:15,971 --> 00:57:19,864
You know, I used to
pack a mean snowball.
1265
00:57:19,866 --> 00:57:21,542
- Oh, really?
1266
00:57:21,544 --> 00:57:23,155
I bet you talk a big game.
1267
00:57:23,157 --> 00:57:25,907
- So, you don't think
I'd do this, huh?
1268
00:57:25,909 --> 00:57:28,190
(Both laughing)
1269
00:57:28,192 --> 00:57:30,540
- Oh, really?
It's on!
1270
00:57:30,542 --> 00:57:32,319
- (Laughing): No!
1271
00:57:32,321 --> 00:57:35,039
- (Kevin and Clementine):
Snowball fight!
1272
00:57:35,041 --> 00:57:36,381
(Laughing)
1273
00:57:36,383 --> 00:57:38,061
(Screaming)
1274
00:57:38,063 --> 00:57:39,840
- (Ryan):
Oh, what do you want?
1275
00:57:39,842 --> 00:57:43,096
You guys want
a piece of this? Oh!
1276
00:57:43,098 --> 00:57:46,353
(All screaming and laughing)
1277
00:57:51,624 --> 00:57:54,712
(Panting)
1278
00:57:54,714 --> 00:57:56,761
(Clementine and Kevin laughing)
1279
00:58:08,343 --> 00:58:11,464
- (Josephine):
♪ Gloria
1280
00:58:11,466 --> 00:58:14,587
(♪ Choir vocalizing )
1281
00:58:18,852 --> 00:58:23,820
♪ In excelsis deo
1282
00:58:29,260 --> 00:58:31,608
- Nice job!
Nice job, everybody!
1283
00:58:31,610 --> 00:58:33,187
Let's take five!
1284
00:58:36,848 --> 00:58:38,155
- Hi!
- Hi!
1285
00:58:38,157 --> 00:58:40,102
- Josephine, this is
my friend Chelsea,
1286
00:58:40,104 --> 00:58:41,647
the one I told you about.
1287
00:58:41,649 --> 00:58:44,132
- Thank you so much
for talking with me.
1288
00:58:44,134 --> 00:58:46,616
- Well, to be honest, I'm
not
really sure if I should.
1289
00:58:46,618 --> 00:58:49,234
- Look, all I need to know
is January's agenda.
1290
00:58:49,236 --> 00:58:52,928
If it wasn't the holidays,
it'd be public, right?
1291
00:58:52,930 --> 00:58:55,378
- Right.
I guess it's OK.
1292
00:58:55,380 --> 00:58:57,225
There are 2 items:
1293
00:58:57,227 --> 00:59:00,280
a proposal to widen
a crosswalk on State Street,
1294
00:59:00,282 --> 00:59:03,705
and an offer from a company
called Pendleton Development
1295
00:59:03,707 --> 00:59:05,450
to purchase Greenwood Park.
1296
00:59:05,452 --> 00:59:07,398
- That's all I needed to know.
1297
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:09,546
- Merry Christmas!
- You too!
1298
00:59:11,158 --> 00:59:13,475
Yes!
1299
00:59:16,026 --> 00:59:18,443
- (Jenkins): Hastings!
When do I get the park
story?
1300
00:59:18,445 --> 00:59:21,497
- I'm just putting the final
touches on it right now.
1301
00:59:21,499 --> 00:59:24,720
- Good! I wanna go big with
this
in tomorrow's edition,
1302
00:59:24,722 --> 00:59:26,601
and we go to press in 2 hours.
1303
00:59:26,603 --> 00:59:29,321
Chelsea!
- Yes, I understand.
1304
00:59:29,323 --> 00:59:31,335
- OK.
1305
00:59:32,209 --> 00:59:34,257
(Keyboard clicking)
1306
00:59:49,197 --> 00:59:50,841
- OK...
1307
00:59:58,698 --> 01:00:00,409
(Sighing)
1308
01:00:00,411 --> 01:00:02,759
- (Kevin):
OK, what's next?
1309
01:00:02,761 --> 01:00:05,646
- OK, so now we need
2 mittenfuls of sugar.
1310
01:00:05,648 --> 01:00:07,762
- All right.
1311
01:00:07,764 --> 01:00:08,803
- One... Nice!
1312
01:00:09,945 --> 01:00:11,153
- One...
1313
01:00:11,155 --> 01:00:12,965
- Two!
- And two!
1314
01:00:12,967 --> 01:00:14,510
- Perfect!
1315
01:00:14,512 --> 01:00:18,135
OK, and now, one
bellful of sprinkles.
1316
01:00:18,137 --> 01:00:20,587
- A whole bellful?
- And no skimping!
1317
01:00:20,589 --> 01:00:23,239
There's no such thing
as too many sprinkles.
1318
01:00:23,241 --> 01:00:24,716
- (Chelsea): Hey, guys!
1319
01:00:24,718 --> 01:00:27,033
Sorry I'm late! Hi!
- Guess what, Mom!
1320
01:00:27,035 --> 01:00:29,584
We just got an anonymous
donation from the website!
1321
01:00:29,586 --> 01:00:31,766
- Ah!
- A ginormous one!
1322
01:00:31,768 --> 01:00:35,963
- Yeah! Ginormous enough to
afford a generator and
lights.
1323
01:00:35,965 --> 01:00:38,782
- We might actually be able
to pull this off, hmm?
1324
01:00:38,784 --> 01:00:43,550
- To our secret, but very
generous, benefactor.
1325
01:00:43,552 --> 01:00:45,599
- Thank you!
All right, cheers!
1326
01:00:45,601 --> 01:00:47,277
- (Ryan): Cheers!
- (Clementine): Jingles!
1327
01:00:47,279 --> 01:00:49,559
- Jingles!
1328
01:00:56,074 --> 01:00:58,456
- Excuse me...
1329
01:00:58,458 --> 01:01:01,042
Be careful, it's hot.
First batch out of the oven!
1330
01:01:01,044 --> 01:01:03,358
- Thank you!
1331
01:01:04,735 --> 01:01:07,220
Wow! That is amazing!
1332
01:01:07,222 --> 01:01:10,005
- For every cup of
flour, 2 cups of happy.
1333
01:01:10,007 --> 01:01:11,348
Got the recipe
from Grandma Lolli,
1334
01:01:11,350 --> 01:01:13,094
who created it
with Grandma Dolli,
1335
01:01:13,096 --> 01:01:14,638
with help from Grandma Lacybell.
1336
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:16,049
- You have a lot of grandmas.
1337
01:01:16,051 --> 01:01:17,661
- Tell me about it!
1338
01:01:17,663 --> 01:01:20,380
Last year, I got 204 pairs
of socks for Christmas.
1339
01:01:20,382 --> 01:01:22,830
(Chuckling)
1340
01:01:22,832 --> 01:01:25,582
- Can I ask you something?
- Sure.
1341
01:01:25,584 --> 01:01:29,008
- You and Kev, you're
just pretending, right?
1342
01:01:29,010 --> 01:01:32,633
I mean, you don't really
think
you're from Northpole?
1343
01:01:33,541 --> 01:01:35,689
(Chuckling)
1344
01:01:35,691 --> 01:01:39,583
- You know, sometimes, it's
harder for people to believe
1345
01:01:39,585 --> 01:01:43,209
in things they've never seen
than it is for others.
1346
01:01:44,117 --> 01:01:45,794
- Yeah...
1347
01:01:45,796 --> 01:01:48,413
That basically describes me.
1348
01:01:49,354 --> 01:01:51,266
- But, Ms. Hastings,
1349
01:01:51,268 --> 01:01:55,328
for Kevin, you ignored what
your head was telling you
1350
01:01:55,330 --> 01:01:58,485
and chose to listen
to your heart instead.
1351
01:01:58,487 --> 01:02:00,096
And just so you know,
1352
01:02:00,098 --> 01:02:02,110
that meant so much to him.
1353
01:02:03,119 --> 01:02:05,501
And what you're
trying to do here,
1354
01:02:05,503 --> 01:02:07,415
to bring the town together,
1355
01:02:07,417 --> 01:02:10,471
to light the tree
and make people happy...
1356
01:02:10,473 --> 01:02:13,862
Well, that means
so much to me too.
1357
01:02:16,312 --> 01:02:18,964
- Clementine?
- Yeah?
1358
01:02:18,966 --> 01:02:22,321
- How old are you?
- 13... decades!
1359
01:02:23,699 --> 01:02:25,074
I'm kidding!
1360
01:02:25,076 --> 01:02:26,652
(Giggling)
1361
01:02:26,654 --> 01:02:29,439
I'll get you another cookie.
1362
01:02:34,544 --> 01:02:36,019
- Hey!
1363
01:02:36,021 --> 01:02:38,906
Oh, it looks like you've
been working all night!
1364
01:02:38,908 --> 01:02:42,465
- Well, I promise posters,
I deliver posters.
1365
01:02:42,467 --> 01:02:45,655
- A man who finishes
what he starts.
1366
01:02:45,657 --> 01:02:47,770
I'm not used to that.
1367
01:02:47,772 --> 01:02:49,818
- Maybe it's time
for that to change.
1368
01:02:51,463 --> 01:02:54,719
- I need some more
coffee. You want some?
1369
01:02:54,721 --> 01:02:56,835
- Sure!
1370
01:02:56,837 --> 01:02:58,949
(Birds chirping)
1371
01:02:58,951 --> 01:03:02,575
- OK, so I have
the food all set,
1372
01:03:02,577 --> 01:03:04,723
um, you've got the posters.
1373
01:03:04,725 --> 01:03:07,946
I just need to get the
permit,
then we're ready for
tomorrow!
1374
01:03:07,948 --> 01:03:09,659
- Whoa!
- What?
1375
01:03:09,661 --> 01:03:13,117
- Well, isn't this the story
you've been working on?
1376
01:03:13,119 --> 01:03:14,192
- Let me see!
1377
01:03:14,194 --> 01:03:15,736
Jenkins wasn't kidding
1378
01:03:15,738 --> 01:03:17,415
when he said he
was gonna go big.
1379
01:03:17,417 --> 01:03:19,932
Huh! Wow!
1380
01:03:19,934 --> 01:03:23,122
I wonder who's gonna
call first, huh?
1381
01:03:23,124 --> 01:03:24,566
The mayor apologizing
1382
01:03:24,568 --> 01:03:28,090
or Pendleton's lawyer,
threatening to sue.
1383
01:03:28,092 --> 01:03:31,045
I guess I don't
need these anymore.
1384
01:03:45,582 --> 01:03:47,631
Wait a minute!
I don't believe it.
1385
01:03:47,633 --> 01:03:48,972
- Believe what?
1386
01:03:48,974 --> 01:03:51,928
- 1964 junior skating
pair champions,
1387
01:03:51,930 --> 01:03:53,405
Ernie and Penelope.
1388
01:03:53,407 --> 01:03:55,643
"Penny" is short for Penelope.
1389
01:03:55,645 --> 01:03:57,316
- I don't get it.
1390
01:03:57,318 --> 01:03:59,554
- It has to be him!
- Who?
1391
01:04:00,725 --> 01:04:02,396
- Pendleton!
1392
01:04:02,398 --> 01:04:04,634
- Yeah, I mean...
It could be, I guess.
1393
01:04:04,636 --> 01:04:06,171
But, so what?
1394
01:04:06,173 --> 01:04:09,113
- I think I made a huge mistake.
1395
01:04:09,115 --> 01:04:11,585
Can you hold down
the fort for me?
1396
01:04:13,492 --> 01:04:15,363
There's something I gotta do.
1397
01:04:15,365 --> 01:04:17,535
- Yeah...
1398
01:04:17,537 --> 01:04:20,142
(Car door slamming,
birds chirping)
1399
01:04:23,686 --> 01:04:26,292
(Doorbell ringing)
1400
01:04:29,469 --> 01:04:32,408
- Ms. Hastings! I'm
surprised to see you here.
1401
01:04:32,410 --> 01:04:34,582
- I wouldn't have
bothered you, but...
1402
01:04:34,584 --> 01:04:37,489
- Apparently, your article's
caused quite a stir.
1403
01:04:37,491 --> 01:04:40,865
The city council's decided
to launch an investigation.
1404
01:04:40,867 --> 01:04:42,400
- What a mess!
1405
01:04:42,402 --> 01:04:45,543
Look, I know I'm the last
person you wanna talk to,
1406
01:04:45,545 --> 01:04:47,849
but if you could...
1407
01:04:47,851 --> 01:04:51,959
If you wouldn't mind
answering a
couple more questions for
me...
1408
01:04:51,961 --> 01:04:54,065
- Why bother?
1409
01:04:54,067 --> 01:04:55,703
You got your headline.
1410
01:04:55,705 --> 01:04:59,480
- I did. But, just...
1411
01:04:59,482 --> 01:05:01,685
I think I got it wrong.
1412
01:05:05,597 --> 01:05:07,735
(Sighing)
1413
01:05:12,749 --> 01:05:15,088
rday.
1414
01:05:15,090 --> 01:05:17,026
For nearly 50 years,
1415
01:05:17,028 --> 01:05:19,398
Penny was the light of my life.
1416
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:21,338
- Was?
1417
01:05:22,876 --> 01:05:25,482
- I lost her 6 months ago.
1418
01:05:25,484 --> 01:05:28,122
- I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
1419
01:05:29,393 --> 01:05:32,100
- W-we grew up next
door to each other.
1420
01:05:32,102 --> 01:05:34,005
Walked to school together,
1421
01:05:34,007 --> 01:05:37,381
played, skated...
1422
01:05:37,383 --> 01:05:41,825
We had our first
kiss on this rink.
1423
01:05:41,827 --> 01:05:45,635
She... she loved
Greenwood Park.
1424
01:05:45,637 --> 01:05:47,508
- So, why build condos on it?
1425
01:05:47,510 --> 01:05:49,680
- Condos?
1426
01:05:49,682 --> 01:05:53,289
No, Pendleton Towers is
going
up by the old brickyard.
1427
01:05:53,291 --> 01:05:56,129
- But I know you were
planning on buying the park!
1428
01:05:56,131 --> 01:06:00,341
- To fix it up, and then
donate
back to the city in trust,
1429
01:06:00,343 --> 01:06:03,283
so it could always be a place
1430
01:06:03,285 --> 01:06:07,360
where people come
together and have fun.
1431
01:06:07,362 --> 01:06:10,836
- Why didn't the mayor
tell me? Why didn't you?
1432
01:06:10,838 --> 01:06:13,810
- That's not what
Penny would've wanted.
1433
01:06:13,812 --> 01:06:17,855
No, no plaques, no publicity,
1434
01:06:17,857 --> 01:06:21,196
no names over the door.
1435
01:06:21,198 --> 01:06:25,641
"The joy is in the
giving," she'd say,
1436
01:06:25,643 --> 01:06:28,784
"not in the credit."
1437
01:06:31,625 --> 01:06:34,732
- Well, now that your gift
is no longer anonymous,
1438
01:06:34,734 --> 01:06:37,740
are you still gonna go
through with the project?
1439
01:06:37,742 --> 01:06:40,749
- Even if I decided to go ahead,
1440
01:06:40,751 --> 01:06:44,792
the city's reconsidering my
offer based on what you
wrote.
1441
01:06:47,166 --> 01:06:49,572
- I'll make sure the
paper prints a retraction.
1442
01:06:51,311 --> 01:06:52,880
Maybe that'll help.
1443
01:07:00,769 --> 01:07:02,606
Mr. Pendleton,
1444
01:07:02,608 --> 01:07:04,311
did you happen
to give a donation
1445
01:07:04,313 --> 01:07:07,888
to the Christmas-tree
lighting campaign?
1446
01:07:07,890 --> 01:07:13,001
- Well, if I did, you
know I couldn't tell you.
1447
01:07:14,706 --> 01:07:22,705
Ms. Hastings, what made
you bring me that picture?
1448
01:07:33,857 --> 01:07:35,761
(Sighing)
1449
01:07:45,387 --> 01:07:48,694
- I wanna begin by saying
how
truly sorry I am, Mr.
Jenkins.
1450
01:07:48,696 --> 01:07:52,740
And I assured Mr. Pendleton
that
a retraction will go to
print.
1451
01:07:52,742 --> 01:07:55,178
- A retraction is
not how I intend
1452
01:07:55,180 --> 01:07:57,118
to kick off our holiday issue.
1453
01:07:57,120 --> 01:07:59,657
I wanna be serving turkey,
not eating crow.
1454
01:07:59,659 --> 01:08:01,232
- But...
1455
01:08:01,234 --> 01:08:03,475
- Look, we can deal with
this in the new year,
1456
01:08:03,477 --> 01:08:05,351
if anyone still cares
about it by then.
1457
01:08:05,353 --> 01:08:07,629
- This is a man's reputation!
1458
01:08:07,631 --> 01:08:10,206
- And I'm sure you feel
appropriately contrite
1459
01:08:10,208 --> 01:08:11,581
about what you did to it.
1460
01:08:11,583 --> 01:08:14,125
- Of course I do!
- Look, we'll wait.
1461
01:08:14,127 --> 01:08:16,202
We'll see how many
letters we get.
1462
01:08:17,274 --> 01:08:19,550
Anything else?
1463
01:08:21,091 --> 01:08:23,603
- You can expect
one letter for sure...
1464
01:08:23,605 --> 01:08:25,712
my letter of resignation.
1465
01:08:31,507 --> 01:08:34,253
(♪ Rock on radio )
1466
01:08:34,255 --> 01:08:36,496
- Yuck!
- (Ryan): How's it going?
1467
01:08:36,498 --> 01:08:38,908
- Not my best one!
It's a mountain of frosting.
1468
01:08:38,910 --> 01:08:40,883
- That's more of a
toupee right there.
1469
01:08:40,885 --> 01:08:42,324
- OK.
1470
01:08:42,326 --> 01:08:45,404
- Looks good!
- Yes, it does.
1471
01:08:45,406 --> 01:08:48,018
- (Kevin):
OK... Wow, it smells good!
1472
01:08:48,020 --> 01:08:52,069
- (Clementine): A little
more
happy sprinkles!
1473
01:08:52,071 --> 01:08:53,542
How's it going?
- (Kevin): Good!
1474
01:08:53,544 --> 01:08:57,159
- (Ryan): Let's see!
- It's going out of control!
1475
01:08:57,161 --> 01:08:58,700
(Ryan laughing)
1476
01:08:58,702 --> 01:09:00,341
- Hey...
1477
01:09:00,343 --> 01:09:03,555
- Mom! What's going on?
1478
01:09:03,557 --> 01:09:06,034
- I didn't take you
seriously
about Mr. Pendleton,
1479
01:09:06,036 --> 01:09:08,982
and if I had, I wouldn't
have made the mistake
1480
01:09:08,984 --> 01:09:11,157
that cost him his good name.
1481
01:09:12,365 --> 01:09:13,870
We didn't get the permit.
1482
01:09:13,872 --> 01:09:16,348
The mayor rejected it
himself, and he's having
1483
01:09:16,350 --> 01:09:18,492
maintenance crews
take down the posters.
1484
01:09:18,494 --> 01:09:20,335
- What?
1485
01:09:20,337 --> 01:09:22,511
- I'm really sorry.
1486
01:09:22,513 --> 01:09:23,884
- How could they do that?
1487
01:09:23,886 --> 01:09:26,061
You're just doing your
job as a journalist.
1488
01:09:26,063 --> 01:09:29,510
- Ex-journalist.
I just resigned.
1489
01:09:35,339 --> 01:09:37,715
I've become such a skeptic.
1490
01:09:39,625 --> 01:09:42,438
I nearly missed one of the
best parts of parenting:
1491
01:09:42,440 --> 01:09:46,055
being reminded of what
I was like when I was a kid,
1492
01:09:46,057 --> 01:09:49,335
before I became so jaded.
1493
01:09:49,337 --> 01:09:51,782
You know, I couldn't
make myself believe
1494
01:09:51,784 --> 01:09:54,126
that Kevin's friend was an elf,
1495
01:09:54,128 --> 01:09:57,441
but I had no problem
believing
that Mr. Pendleton was a
crook.
1496
01:09:58,882 --> 01:10:02,465
That's just not
the person I wanna be.
1497
01:10:02,467 --> 01:10:05,110
And thanks to my
kid and Clementine
1498
01:10:05,112 --> 01:10:08,425
and, well, you...
1499
01:10:09,766 --> 01:10:11,875
it's gonna change,
1500
01:10:11,877 --> 01:10:13,852
starting now.
1501
01:10:19,913 --> 01:10:23,631
- I think I just got
my first Christmas present.
1502
01:10:23,633 --> 01:10:25,605
(Keyboard clicking)
1503
01:10:25,607 --> 01:10:27,347
- What you doing?
1504
01:10:27,349 --> 01:10:29,725
- Oh, just writing
about what I've learned
1505
01:10:29,727 --> 01:10:31,299
in the last couple of days.
1506
01:10:33,343 --> 01:10:37,059
- It did get kind of crazy
around here, didn't it?
1507
01:10:37,061 --> 01:10:38,801
- Yeah.
Crazy fun!
1508
01:10:38,803 --> 01:10:40,777
I love you.
1509
01:10:40,779 --> 01:10:42,116
- Ditto!
1510
01:10:45,935 --> 01:10:48,078
(Sighing)
1511
01:11:07,167 --> 01:11:08,607
- Hey, stranger!
1512
01:11:08,609 --> 01:11:10,449
- I saw you'd cleaned
out your desk
1513
01:11:10,451 --> 01:11:12,927
and thought you'd left
without saying goodbye.
1514
01:11:12,929 --> 01:11:15,606
- Well, that's one of the
reasons why I came back...
1515
01:11:15,608 --> 01:11:17,080
and to ask you for a favour.
1516
01:11:17,082 --> 01:11:18,519
- What's on it?
1517
01:11:18,521 --> 01:11:20,329
- An unauthorized final column.
1518
01:11:20,331 --> 01:11:22,036
I was hoping you could sneak it
1519
01:11:22,038 --> 01:11:23,979
onto the online edition for me.
1520
01:11:23,981 --> 01:11:26,792
- Is it a rant about the
callous nature of the news
biz?
1521
01:11:26,794 --> 01:11:29,236
- Uh, no!
- Too bad!
1522
01:11:29,238 --> 01:11:32,050
- Yeah. You'll still sneak
it
in for me though, right?
1523
01:11:32,052 --> 01:11:34,561
- Of course I will.
- You're the best!
1524
01:11:34,563 --> 01:11:38,948
Thank you!
1525
01:11:38,950 --> 01:11:41,226
(Sighing)
1526
01:11:44,912 --> 01:11:47,020
- I've been looking
around for you!
1527
01:11:47,022 --> 01:11:48,626
What are you doing?
1528
01:11:50,772 --> 01:11:53,953
- I was writing a
note to thank you...
1529
01:11:54,890 --> 01:11:56,598
and to say goodbye.
1530
01:11:57,504 --> 01:11:58,941
- What?
1531
01:11:58,943 --> 01:12:01,455
You promised to spend
Christmas Eve with me!
1532
01:12:01,457 --> 01:12:04,334
Remember?
You can't bail!
1533
01:12:04,336 --> 01:12:06,746
- I don't know what
made me think that
1534
01:12:06,748 --> 01:12:08,923
I could actually
make a difference.
1535
01:12:08,925 --> 01:12:11,234
- You did make a difference!
1536
01:12:11,236 --> 01:12:12,840
To me!
1537
01:12:13,980 --> 01:12:16,793
This is the most
dazzy Christmas ever!
1538
01:12:16,795 --> 01:12:20,141
You made me believe
in you, Clementine.
1539
01:12:20,143 --> 01:12:23,758
It's not fair to stop
believing in yourself.
1540
01:12:32,433 --> 01:12:34,809
- Mom...
- Hi, honey!
1541
01:12:35,915 --> 01:12:37,556
Is everything OK?
1542
01:12:37,558 --> 01:12:39,431
- Not so much.
1543
01:12:39,433 --> 01:12:42,412
Clementine's pretty
worried about Northpole.
1544
01:12:42,414 --> 01:12:46,364
I mean, I'd be freaking out
too if our home was in
trouble.
1545
01:12:46,366 --> 01:12:50,751
- Hey... Did you just
call this place home?
1546
01:12:50,753 --> 01:12:53,230
- Oh... I guess I did!
1547
01:12:53,232 --> 01:12:54,803
(Chuckling)
1548
01:12:54,805 --> 01:12:59,023
- Let's go talk to Clementine.
1549
01:12:59,025 --> 01:13:01,669
(Chelsea): I'm glad you guys
decided to spend part of
1550
01:13:01,671 --> 01:13:03,009
your Christmas Eve with us.
1551
01:13:03,011 --> 01:13:05,386
- So's my dog, otherwise,
he'd be wearing
1552
01:13:05,388 --> 01:13:06,724
reindeer antlers again.
1553
01:13:06,726 --> 01:13:08,602
(Chelsea laughing)
1554
01:13:08,604 --> 01:13:10,007
- How are you, Clementine?
1555
01:13:12,419 --> 01:13:15,198
Look, I know things didn't
turn out how you'd hoped,
1556
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,743
but, if nothing else,
you and Kev became friends.
1557
01:13:17,745 --> 01:13:19,753
- And we had a good
time working together.
1558
01:13:19,755 --> 01:13:22,967
- Yeah! So, I'm sure that
sent
some happiness to Northpole.
1559
01:13:22,969 --> 01:13:25,380
- Yeah, but not nearly enough.
1560
01:13:25,382 --> 01:13:28,427
- Then there's only
one thing to do.
1561
01:13:28,429 --> 01:13:30,436
We need to make more sparks.
1562
01:13:30,438 --> 01:13:32,546
Hmm!
1563
01:13:37,638 --> 01:13:39,579
- (Chelsea):
Oh, permit-schmermit!
1564
01:13:39,581 --> 01:13:40,551
That's what I say.
1565
01:13:40,553 --> 01:13:41,923
(Laughing)
1566
01:13:41,925 --> 01:13:44,300
- There's no law against
a few citizens enjoying
1567
01:13:44,302 --> 01:13:46,277
a public park on Christmas Eve.
1568
01:13:46,279 --> 01:13:49,224
- And having our own,
personal tree ceremony!
1569
01:13:49,226 --> 01:13:50,799
- (All): Yeah!
1570
01:13:50,801 --> 01:13:56,023
- (Clementine):
I love the smell...
1571
01:13:56,025 --> 01:13:58,232
- All right, here you go.
1572
01:13:58,234 --> 01:14:00,913
One for you!
Clementine, for you.
1573
01:14:00,915 --> 01:14:03,423
- Oh! Thank you!
- You're welcome!
1574
01:14:03,425 --> 01:14:06,003
- Hey, I'll race you up there!
1575
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:14,643
You know, I feel better
already!
- Me too!
1576
01:14:16,184 --> 01:14:17,992
- They look like they could use
1577
01:14:17,994 --> 01:14:20,067
a little company though,
don't you think?
1578
01:14:20,069 --> 01:14:22,547
And, ta-da!
1579
01:14:22,549 --> 01:14:24,857
(Chelsea, Kevin
and Clementine laughing)
1580
01:14:30,718 --> 01:14:33,028
- Awesome!
- Dazzy!
1581
01:14:33,030 --> 01:14:34,469
- (Ryan): Huh?
1582
01:14:34,471 --> 01:14:35,574
(All laughing)
1583
01:14:35,576 --> 01:14:37,182

until I read your column.
1610
01:15:51,028 --> 01:15:52,601
It was wonderful!
1611
01:15:52,603 --> 01:15:54,342

- The wire services? Really?
1616
01:16:01,310 --> 01:16:03,485
- Almost a million hits
and not slowing down.
1617
01:16:03,487 --> 01:16:05,495
Your story's flying
around the world
1618

went viral, then...

(Clementine laughing)
1629
01:16:31,351 --> 01:16:34,262
- (Kevin): Clementine!
Where are you going?
1630
01:16:34,264 --> 01:16:36,237
- Home!
1631
01:16:36,239 --> 01:16:39,620
- What about the
tree-lighting ceremony?
1632
01:16:39,622 --> 01:16:43,773
- Don't worry!
I'll know when it happens!
1633
01:16:44,678 --> 01:16:47,289
Merry Christmas!
1634
01:16:50,472 --> 01:16:52,682
- Why, that is one special...
1635
01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:56,398
elf!
1636
01:16:56,400 --> 01:16:59,648
- You're gonna see
exactly how special
1637
01:16:59,650 --> 01:17:03,097
in 3, 2, 1!
1638
01:17:09,428 --> 01:17:12,205
- Did I just...
- Was that...
1639
01:17:12,207 --> 01:17:16,693
- Guess this is one
Christmas
you'll never forget!
1640
01:17:16,695 --> 01:17:20,210
Merry Christmas, Mom.
- Merry Christmas,
sweetheart.
1641
01:17:22,388 --> 01:17:23,786
I love you!
1642
01:17:23,788 --> 01:17:26,485
- Let me go put on my
skates.
- OK.
1643
01:17:31,751 --> 01:17:36,148
Well, this is actually...
- Uh-huh! Yeah...
1644
01:17:38,215 --> 01:17:41,113
Where's the mistletoe
when you need it?
1645
01:17:43,313 --> 01:17:45,545
- You could use
your imagination.
1646
01:17:45,547 --> 01:17:47,676
How about right here?
1647
01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:02,704
(Chuckling)
1648
01:18:06,105 --> 01:18:07,836
(Chelsea):
It's easy to forget
1649
01:18:07,838 --> 01:18:10,235
what connecting with
one another feels like.
1650
01:18:10,237 --> 01:18:13,634
With a few keystrokes
on a computer,
1651
01:18:13,636 --> 01:18:16,133
we convince ourselves
that we've communicated.
1652
01:18:16,135 --> 01:18:17,632
(People talking and laughing)
1653
01:18:17,634 --> 01:18:19,664
By believing that's enough,
1654
01:18:19,666 --> 01:18:24,063
we lose sight ofthe importance of humancontact
1655
01:18:24,065 --> 01:18:27,562
and the joy of gathering
together as a community.
1656
01:18:27,564 --> 01:18:28,761
- How are you?
1657
01:18:28,763 --> 01:18:30,194
- That's what's so wonderful
1658
01:18:30,196 --> 01:18:32,593
about this special holiday.
1659
01:18:32,595 --> 01:18:34,826
It provides an opportunity
for fellowship,
1660
01:18:34,828 --> 01:18:37,991
a chance to truly touch
our neighbours,
1661
01:18:37,993 --> 01:18:42,389
friends and families withgenerosity of heart andspirit.
1662
01:18:42,391 --> 01:18:45,188
And if you ask this reporter,
1663
01:18:45,190 --> 01:18:48,554
it's nothing short of
miraculous.
1664
01:18:48,556 --> 01:18:50,553
You weren't kidding
when you said
1665
01:18:50,555 --> 01:18:53,218
you skated worse than
you played the trumpet!
1666
01:18:53,220 --> 01:18:56,017
- Well, as long as I can
hold
onto you, I'll be fine.
1667
01:18:56,019 --> 01:18:57,984
- (Jenkins): Chelsea!
- Whoa!
1668
01:18:57,986 --> 01:18:59,617
Mr. Jenkins?
1669
01:18:59,619 --> 01:19:02,582
- The phone's been
ringing all day.
1670
01:19:02,584 --> 01:19:06,480
The newspaper's never
had better, well, press.
1671
01:19:06,482 --> 01:19:10,678
- Um, Ryan, I'm sorry.
Kevin,
this is Mr. Jenkins, my
boss.
1672
01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:13,177
Well, former boss.
- Not so fast.
1673
01:19:13,179 --> 01:19:16,110
Listen, Chelsea, I was wrong.
1674
01:19:16,112 --> 01:19:18,209
We printed the retraction.
1675
01:19:18,211 --> 01:19:21,774
And here's some confetti
for New Year's Eve.
1676
01:19:21,776 --> 01:19:23,574
Your letter of resignation,
1677
01:19:23,576 --> 01:19:25,572
rejected!
1678
01:19:25,574 --> 01:19:26,905
(Chuckling)
1679
01:19:26,907 --> 01:19:28,972
Come and see me on Monday.
1680
01:19:28,974 --> 01:19:30,604
I'm giving you a bonus!
1681
01:19:30,606 --> 01:19:33,869
- Christmas miracles
do happen, huh?
1682
01:19:36,502 --> 01:19:38,501
I'll be right back!
1683
01:19:40,867 --> 01:19:42,565
Mr. Pendleton!
1684
01:19:42,567 --> 01:19:44,265
I'm really glad you came.
1685
01:19:44,267 --> 01:19:45,831
- So am I.
1686
01:19:45,833 --> 01:19:47,030
(Chuckling)
1687
01:19:47,032 --> 01:19:49,064
Penny would've loved this.
1688
01:19:49,066 --> 01:19:50,663
Friends, neighbours,
1689
01:19:50,665 --> 01:19:54,562
reconnecting for at least
one special night.
1690
01:19:54,564 --> 01:19:56,194
- Evening, Ernie!
1691
01:19:56,196 --> 01:19:58,594
- Oh, Mr. Mayor.
1692
01:19:58,596 --> 01:20:01,592
- Sir, I owe you an apology.
I got it all wrong.
1693
01:20:01,594 --> 01:20:03,524
- Except for this.
1694
01:20:03,526 --> 01:20:05,391
No, as far as I'm concerned,
1695
01:20:05,393 --> 01:20:08,555
the no-longer-secret
project is still on.
1696
01:20:08,557 --> 01:20:11,888
- Well, most of the city
council
is here skating,
1697
01:20:11,890 --> 01:20:13,487
so I'm sure that after tonight,
1698
01:20:13,489 --> 01:20:16,020
there'll be no problem
accepting your gift.
1699
01:20:16,022 --> 01:20:17,386
- Good.
1700
01:20:18,686 --> 01:20:20,851
- Mom, tree's ready to light!
1701
01:20:20,853 --> 01:20:24,016
- Hey, you must be Kevin!
- Yes, sir.
1702
01:20:24,018 --> 01:20:26,715
- Well, word is, getting
our community together
1703
01:20:26,717 --> 01:20:29,214
to celebrate Christmas
was all your doing.
1704
01:20:29,216 --> 01:20:32,480
- Actually, I had
quite a bit of help.
1705
01:20:32,482 --> 01:20:35,913
- Well, still, I think you
should do the honours.
1706
01:20:40,178 --> 01:20:43,976
(Mayor): Gather around,
everybody! Gather around!
1707
01:20:43,978 --> 01:20:47,541
- (Boy): You rock, Kevin!
- (Girl): Whoo! Awesome!
1708
01:20:47,543 --> 01:20:50,340
- Merry Christmas to all,
1709
01:20:50,342 --> 01:20:54,605
and to all, a good... light!
1710
01:20:54,607 --> 01:20:56,371

1713

- Yes!
1714
