1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:15,000
this lucClass.

2
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,000
Mm hmm.

3
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:43,000
Of all the Christmas pre-orniments turned out that year, very long ago, only one handed

4
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:51,000
of happiness. His name was Noel, and at the very moment he was created, old hermany glassblower

5
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:59,000
received truly joyous news. Belize his only daughter had just given birth to a baby girl.

6
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:07,000
He was a grandpa at last. And being quite emotional and for a glassblower,

7
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:17,000
hermany cry for pure joy. It was Noel's good fortune that that one merry tear became part of it.

8
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:37,000
My name is Noel, and I am a happy day.

9
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:44,000
Yes, Herman's tear of joy had become Noel's happy.

10
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:52,000
I wonder what the world will hold for me. I couldn't care less. Gosh, you're pretty.

11
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:59,000
It's not proper to speak until we have been introduced. Oh, well, why are you?

12
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:10,000
You don't know. I am Miss Freezender, the ice-made me please. I am very unusual and precious

13
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:18,000
ornament. How do you know, Noel? But I have a happiness. How terribly middle-class.

14
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Finally, Noel and Miss Freezender were placed with another one and sent to a cardboard box.

15
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,000
All of them together were something called a dozen.

16
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Where are we? In the box thing, stupid. Each and our own little compartment. But we can't see each

17
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:54,000
other this way. I'd rather enjoy that. Not me. You're a pest. But what about the others?

18
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,000
I couldn't care less. Hi, my name is Noel and I have a happiness.

19
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Quiet, Herman! Are we trying to sleep? Go over your place.

20
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:11,000
You're wholesbaking our red rockets. Shoo, shoo!

21
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Then the box that held a dozen is delivered to a truly magical place.

22
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:31,000
The afternoon of Christmas Eve in a five and ten cents store. Back in those days,

23
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,000
that was the only place some folks could afford to be married.

24
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:47,000
Wow! Will somebody please shut that green horn up?

25
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,000
Hey, what are those big things walking around?

26
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Don't shout. They are called people things. Some of them are little there.

27
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:02,000
Oh, honestly. They are children things. I like the children things.

28
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:09,000
It figures. You would. Look respectable, Noel. We are a thing called for sale.

29
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,000
And we want to be a thing called bot.

30
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Finally, one of the people things. Noel signed up. She was a thing called a mother.

31
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,000
But the dozen brought them home.

32
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Look at this beauty. It cost 50 cents down at Smitty's coleard.

33
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Oh darling, it's worth every penny. And look at these.

34
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,000
Hey, they're swell. Ah, Merry Christmas, dear.

35
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:56,000
This rezender don't ask. We are in a thing called a home.

36
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,000
What's a home thing? A people things bots.

37
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Children things.

38
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,000
Hey, look at everything. It's Christmas.

39
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:19,000
Christmas. Not yet tomorrow. Tomorrow's my favorite. Let's play.

40
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,000
I love you. Do you want to go on the train?

41
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:37,000
That's not a good idea, honey. Now come on all of you. It's time for dinner.

42
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:43,000
Good. Watch your hat. Or really watch. Watch them again.

43
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Why? Hannah's watching. Yeah, everything counts with Santa.

44
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,000
She loves me.

45
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,000
Noel looked up at the stately evergreen. Might eat branches with like great strong arms.

46
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Hi, my name is Noel and I have a hat here. Wonderful. My name is Brutus. Glad to know you.

47
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Kindly Brutus became Noel's first friend. He was very patient. He didn't mind answering any

48
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Noel's thousand one questions. What's happening now, Brutus?

49
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:32,000
It's become a thing called Christmas Eve. The reason you were made and I was born.

50
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,000
It feels like magic.

51
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,000
When the children things were tucked into a thing called bed, the people things came back

52
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:52,000
downstairs and went to work. Here's a good spot for you, little fella.

53
00:06:53,000 --> 00:07:02,000
Hi, get it? Pulling neat idea. Hey, look at me. Oh, no, well. Please shut up.

54
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,000
After the dozen, along with several other dozens were hung under Brutus's strong arms.

55
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:15,000
All right, dear. Plug him in. Noel met their master sisters at the likely,

56
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,000
slightly world-wearing bunch.

57
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:26,000
My name's Noel and I have a happiness. I know well, sweetie. He winked at me.

58
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,000
Then, of course, there was the tinsel play. Flighty group, but very necessary.

59
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Then under Brutus's lower arms were placed many colorful boxes tied with bright and fancy ribbons.

60
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:50,000
And around all this, the father thing placed a toy electric train named McEyes, which he

61
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:55,000
knows since he's a child. He's a great, he's a great, he's a great, he's a great, he's a great.

62
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:01,000
Hi, McEyes. My name is Noel and I have a happiness.

63
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday. Why can't you talk?

64
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,000
Hey, hey.

65
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Brit, what's so much so busy about? He's trying to catch me, please.

66
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Why? Don't know, but it seems very important for toy electric trains to catch their kids.

67
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,000
Darling?

68
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:31,000
And then a special place was named for one final thing, lovingly placed under Brutus.

69
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:35,000
What's that down there, Brutus? I can't see inside.

70
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Just a little toy stable.

71
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,000
But why would they have a toy stable?

72
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:45,000
Well, Noel, somehow that little staple is the thing that tonight is all about.

73
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Then finally, with that weary wonder, there are only parent things to know on Christmas Eve.

74
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,000
They realize that the job was finished.

75
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:07,000
As they've done every year, and as their parents have done before them, they have taken holiday trinkets and made Christmas magic.

76
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,000
Oh?

77
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,000
What does I feel now?

78
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Oh.

79
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,000
It's so lovely.

80
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,000
It's a thing called peace and goodwill.

81
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,000
You're quite remarkable to be able to feel it.

82
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Usually it's reserved for the people things and animals and sometimes a street.

83
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,000
I guess, maybe.

84
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,000
It's because I have a happiness.

85
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,000
I guess maybe it is.

86
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,000
Our is past, but it seemed only an instant.

87
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,000
A sudden...

88
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,000
A sudden...

89
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,000
A sudden thing is a thing called Christmas morning.

90
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,000
A world of bright, bright and happy and happy.

91
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Yay!

92
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,000
Ha ha ha!

93
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,000
They're happy!

94
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,000
I don't like it!

95
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,000
They're happy!

96
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,000
I was a wonderful time.

97
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:15,000
There were toys and there was laughter and festivals for exchange.

98
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,000
There was laughter.

99
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,000
And loved ones visited, and there was laughter.

100
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,000
And even more presents were opened, and there was even more laughter.

101
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000
The guys ran around his attraction.

102
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,000
He's a treat, he's a treat, he's a treat, he's a treat, he's a treat, he's a treat.

103
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,000
There was laughter.

104
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,000
And good things were eaten, and there was laughter.

105
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
And good kisses were kissed.

106
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:51,000
And then, to top everything off, there was more laughter.

107
00:10:53,000 --> 00:11:00,000
It was a wonderful time, which went on for seven whole day and night things.

108
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:13,000
But then, it became a terrible thing called January 2nd.

109
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Back to normal.

110
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Huh?

111
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,000
They're gonna put us in that old dog box again, Brutus.

112
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,000
Why?

113
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,000
Because it's all over.

114
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,000
He's not gonna get me. I won't go.

115
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,000
Goodbye, little fellow. Goodbye.

116
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
Keep that happiness of yours.

117
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Never lose it.

118
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Noelle ever saw Brutus again.

119
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:01,000
Noelle ever saw Brutus again.

120
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Noelle and the rest of the dozen were put into a high, dusty, dark thing called an attic,

121
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,000
where they became a thing called forgotten.

122
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:24,000
But as it always does, the thing called time, old relentlessly from season to season,

123
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:30,000
and it became a thing called spring, and a thing called summer.

124
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Eventually, it was a thing called autumn, a time for pumpkins, turkeys.

125
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:43,000
Then came that truly glorious day when the first snow of the year fell.

126
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:48,000
And then finally.

127
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,000
Hey, it's back again.

128
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,000
The good thing, the wonderful, beautiful, Christmasful thing.

129
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:02,000
Time, like the little electric train, had chased its tail around the universe,

130
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,000
and arrived at Christmas once more.

131
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,000
Hey, hey, hey, hey, I filled the law with you again.

132
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,000
There was a new tree named Harrood.

133
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000
My dog, and everything else, was the same as the year before.

134
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:20,000
The family, the friends, the Mazda Sisters, the tinsel clan,

135
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,000
the brightly wrapped packages, the mysterious little stable.

136
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:30,000
And of course, there's a britain, there's a britain, there's a britain, there's a britain.

137
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,000
Hi, Macguys!

138
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Huh?

139
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,000
Careful, Noel.

140
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Ha ha ha!

141
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,000
Phew, thanks.

142
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Harrood, what's inside that little stable down there?

143
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,000
Chris said it's the thing that Christmas saw about.

144
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,000
Well, I guess Brutus was right.

145
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:06,000
But it seemed that almost before it started, Christmas was over again.

146
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Noel said goodbye to Harrood, and the attic thing was his Christmas once more.

147
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:19,000
And in this way, year followed year, a bittersweet blend, joy and antics.

148
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:25,000
After Harrood, there was Bernard, after Bernard, there was Anthony, and Gregory, an Irving, shock.

149
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:32,000
But as the years passed, Noel sensed that a subtle change seemed to come over everything.

150
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Hey!

151
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,000
The children things are getting bigger!

152
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:41,000
Oh, Noel, must you always be so dramatic!

153
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,000
They're getting to look almost like the people things!

154
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,000
I couldn't care less.

155
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,000
Indeed, the children things have become people things.

156
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:05,000
Then came the things that changed all things, things such as graduations and engagements,

157
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,000
and weddings, and war.

158
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Then one day, years later, Noel heard something terrible from down below.

159
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,000
Oh, what's the use?

160
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:24,000
Kids scattered all over the country with families of their own.

161
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,000
Let's not bother with a tree this year.

162
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,000
Alright, dear.

163
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,000
Oh, no!

164
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,000
No Christmas!

165
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:40,000
No more Christmas! Good! A vacation at last!

166
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:51,000
And as the long, lonely attic years continued to pass, Noel finally fell into a deep and seemingly endless sleep.

167
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:57,000
It was lucky that he slept, or he missed the things called heartbreak which visited the house.

168
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,000
He missed the things called wills and auctions.

169
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,000
He never heard the words.

170
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,000
Ah, just leave that junk in the attic. It's of no use.

171
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,000
Noel never heard the terrible, final sound.

172
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:17,000
The lock-made is a shut-off life and warmth and joy from the old empty house,

173
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:23,000
leaving it with the ghosts of long-agoed Christmases which everyone had forgotten.

174
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:28,000
And as the years crept slowly by, the dozens slapped on.

175
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,000
Like the house, their bright colors faded and chipped.

176
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,000
Indeed, everything seemed over.

177
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:43,000
I say, seemed over because when you have a happiness, nothing is ever completely gone.

178
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:49,000
And perhaps it was the happiness working its magic.

179
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,000
Who knows?

180
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,000
Who knows?

181
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,000
Who knows?

182
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,000
Who knows?

183
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,000
Who knows?

184
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Who knows?

185
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Who knows?

186
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,000
Who knows?

187
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:14,000
Who knows?

188
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,000
Twenty-two hours. Got it down at the mall.

189
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,000
It's worth every penny.

190
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,000
Look, I found these old ornaments in the attic.

191
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,000
Maybe they'll look pretty with all the new plastic ones.

192
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,000
Merry Christmas, honey.

193
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:39,000
Merry Christmas!

194
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,000
Merry Christmas!

195
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:47,000
What's merry about going back to work?

196
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,000
A new children's thing.

197
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,000
Hey, look, everything!

198
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,000
It's Christmas!

199
00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:14,000
Now get to model the must-a-

200
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,000
All of you, it's time for dinner.

201
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Nope, these are just too chipped and old to use.

202
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,000
Shift and old!

203
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,000
Shift and old!

204
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,000
What does he mean by that?

205
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Not pretty, I guess.

206
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,000
Not pretty?

207
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,000
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, put me on that tree.

208
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,000
It's no use.

209
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,000
They don't want us.

210
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,000
Here comes the wind.

211
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:57,000
Wait, we could use this little fellow to balance out that branch in the back.

212
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,000
Goodbye, Miss Fristerna.

213
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,000
Goodbye!

214
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,000
She didn't even say goodbye.

215
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,000
Seems she's the word of a child.

216
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,000
Oh, hi, my name is Noelle, and I have a happiness.

217
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Call me Abraham.

218
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Yes, there was a new tree, but all the old friends were back, including...

219
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Jesus, sweetens, Jesus, sweetens!

220
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000
High in the well!

221
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,000
Don't die, don't die, don't die, don't die, don't die!

222
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,000
No, see!

223
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000
High in the God!

224
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,000
Merry Christmas!

225
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,000
High in the God!

226
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Merry Fristerna!

227
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Oh, oh, oh, oh!

228
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,000
Oh!

229
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Oh, the little old red ornament.

230
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,000
It's broken.

231
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,000
But somehow, Noelle was still away.

232
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,000
He was on the floor, he knew that.

233
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:05,000
And for the first time, he could look into the tiny stable.

234
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:11,000
Why, there's little toy people think, and a little toy children think.

235
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,000
But think all about you.

236
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:20,000
Then there was the thing called a miracle.

237
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:27,000
But now that his old glass body was no more, the happiness that was really noelle was released.

238
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,000
Noelle was released.

239
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000
Noelle was released.

240
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,000
My name is Noelle, and I am a soul.

241
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,000
I am a happiness.

242
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:43,000
And being sure of the delterated happiness in your soul anywhere.

243
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,000
Hey, it's the world thing, the thing called the world.

244
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:52,000
And it's Christmas all over the place.

245
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
The finals have, there's a lot more Christmas for me to be.

246
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Oh, wait, the Christmas dawn around the world.

247
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,000
I'll be all the other people, all the other houses.

248
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:22,000
House of made wood, house of made of bricks, old houses, new houses, witch house, poor house, big house, more house.

249
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,000
House is so dark and hard to eat at all.

250
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,000
House of made is red, house of made of snow, castle and sun.

251
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,000
The sun was shut, cold and forgotten, and wig long.

252
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,000
And he told us all that people and children sang.

253
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:44,000
But some spoke different tongues, different days of life, some that never even heard of Christmas.

254
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Who do you care? I've got enough happiness for everybody!

255
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,000
Wait!

256
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:59,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

257
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,000
He wouldn't live on forever. Happy heart, simple man.

258
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:34,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

259
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:39,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

260
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:44,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

261
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:49,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

262
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

263
00:22:54,000 --> 00:23:09,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

264
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:14,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.

265
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:19,000
The wonder wonders little Noelle would become the pure joy of Christmas.
