>> ZACK: "The Pop-Up

Christmas Calendar."

[grunting]

Whoa!

Whoo! Oh, hi.

Happy almost Christmas.

It's only a short time away.

So I made something

really special for everyone.

>> [quacks]

>> Presents!

>> And it's not even

Christmas yet!

>> Cool!

>> Wow!

>> Would you look at that!

>> Can we open it, Zack?

Can we?

Can we? >> We sure can, Fluffy.

>> We sure can, Fluffy.

>> Amazing!

>> Uh, what is it?

>> It's a calendar, Fluffy.

>> See, we'll count down

the days until Christmas,

by opening up a pop-up flap

every day.

>> Wow!

>> But what's behind the flaps?

>> I filled them with all

the stuff we need for Christmas.

Each one's a different surprise.

>> [quacks]

>> And there's one

really special surprise

for everyone to open

on the last day.

A big star that I made

myself!

Quack.

>> [quacks]

>> Wanna open the first flap?

>> [quacks]

>> BELLY UP: Congratulations,

Quack!

>> Can I open a flap next?

>> [quacks]

>> Sorry, guys.

We only get to open

one flap each day

before Christmas.

>> Aw!

>> [quacks]

>> Don't worry.

Everyone gets a turn.

And tomorrow's yours, Fluffy.

>> Yippee!

>> Then me!

>> Then me!

>> Then me!

I mean, perhaps I might

open one after that.

>> Well, the sooner we go

to bed, the sooner we'll

wake up and find out.

>> [quacks]

>> Oh, boy, oh, boy!

I wonder what's going to be

behind my flap!

Maybe a candy cane

Maybe a candy cane or a snow globe...

or a snow globe...

>> [snoring]

>> I'm too excited to sleep.

Maybe I'll just take a teeny,

weeny peek behind the next flap.

weeny peek behind the next flap. >> [quacks]

>> [quacks]

>> [gasps]

>> [quacks]

>> Quack!

What are you doing here?

>> [quacks]

>> You aren't going to

open the next flap, are you?

>> [quacks]

>> So was I.

>> [rattling]

>> [quacks]

>> FLUFFY: Coming from

the calendar!

>> [quacks]

>> [gasps] Wait!

>> [quacks]

>> Think anyone would notice?

>> [quacks]

>> Yeah. Opening one little flap

couldn't hurt anything.

>> [chirping]

>> Wow!

Ooh, just one more.

Then we'll go right back to bed.

>> [marching drumbeat plays]

>> [quacks]

>> [music box music plays]

>> [drumbeat plays]

>> Beautiful!

>> [quacks]

>> Wait for me!

>> [quacks]

>> [Fluffy laughs]

>> [Quack laughs]

>> Ooh!

>> [quacks]

>> Just one more!

>> [quacks]

>> [gasps]

[yelling]

>> [quacks]

>> [music plays]

>> FLUFFY: Oh, no! Come back!

>> [birds chirping]

>> Did that just happen?

>> [quacks]

>> [springing sound]

>> [Fluffy yells]

Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!

Oh, no!

>> [quacks, sniffs]

>> Quack?

Ew! Dirty socks?

>> [quacks]

>> Good idea, Quack.

>> [quacks]

>> We'll just fill the flaps

with other stuff.

Like this!

>> [quacks]

>> Now let's go to bed,

and hope no one will notice!

and hope no one will notice! >> [quacks]

>> [quacks]

>> [yawning]

>> It's a new day.

That means...

>> A new flap on the calendar!

>> [quacks]

>> Is it my turn?

>> No, it's my turn.

>> No, it's Fluffy's turn.

Remember?

>> Go ahead, Fluffy.

>> Oh, um, me?

Well, OK.

>> Go for it, buddy!

>> Whoo-hoo!

>> Whoo-hoo! >> [gulps]

>> [gulps]

>> ALL: Huh?!

>> [flies buzzing]

>> Oh, socks!

Just what we need

to decorate for Christmas!

>> ALL: Ew!

>> I didn't put socks

into the Christmas calendar.

Rocks? [indistinct]

>> Where's all

the Christmas stuff?

>> Hey, look! Tracks!

Looks like our Christmas

stuff all went this way!

Come on!

>> [all shouting]

>> [all shouting] >> [quacks]

>> [quacks]

>> No more tracks.

>> KIRA: Now what?

>> Hm... I don't know.

>> [quacks]

>> Yeah, we better tell them.

Zack?

>> What is it, Fluffy?

>> Um, Quack and I were...

>> Zack! Look!

>> Hey!

It's one of our stockings!

Maybe we can still get

everything back in time

for Christmas!

for Christmas! >> [quacks]

>> [quacks]

>> [chickens clucking]

>> Huh? Chocolate egg farm?

We want Christmas, not Easter.

>> [quacks]

>> Oh...

>> [quacks]

>> Zack, Quack and I were...

>> Zack! I found a Christmas

candy cane!

>> I found it first!

>> Good job, guys. This way!

>> Good job, guys. This way! >> [quacks]

>> [quacks]

>> Huh?

>> Wrong holiday!

>> Again!

Happy Halloween!

>> Oh!

>> So this means...

>> None of us will get

a turn to open our pop-up flap.

>> And we won't have

all the things we need

for Christmas!

>> [quacks]

>> We can't hold it in anymore!

>> Hold what in?

>> [quacks]

>> Yeah! It was us!

>> ALL: Huh?

>> We opened up the flaps

on the Christmas calendar!

>> [quacks]

>> I'm sorry too.

We weren't thinking

when we opened all the flaps.

>> ALL: Aw!

>> [sighs]

Hey, don't worry, everybody.

We can figure this out.

>> Zack?

We're really sorry.

>> [quacks]

>> It'll be OK, guys.

We're really glad you told us.

Right?

See?

We'll find a way to fix this.

We're friends.

And that's what friends do.

>> Aw!

>> [quacks]

>> Now, let's find our

Christmas stuff!

>> Yay!

>> [quacks]

>> ZACK: Good job, Quack.

Let's go!

>> Yay! Whoo-hoo!

>> Hooray!

>> [quacks]

>> [Zack laughs] Snow!

We're getting close!

>> Look! A pop-up!

>> ALL: Wow!

>> ZACK: Poptastic!

>> KIRA: This is a Christmas

page.

>> [chirping]

>> We finally made it.

>> [marching drumbeat plays]

>> All our stuff! [laughs]

>> Everything's here!

>> [quacks]

>> Hooray!

>> Wait a second.

We're missing something.

Something important!

When you opened the flaps,

did you see a big paper star?

>> Uh...

>> It was a special present

I made, for everyone.

>> Oh!

>> Oh! >> [quacks]

>> [quacks]

[sniffing, quacks]

[grunting]

>> Yeah, that's it, Quack!

>> [quacks]

>> It's all crumpled!

>> And it won't light up

anymore!

>> [quacks]

>> Yeah, if we hadn't opened

all of those flaps, none of this

would have happened.

>> [whooshing sound]

>> Huh?

>> ZACK: Maybe there's another

way to light up the star.

With real stars!

>> Cool!

>> Yeah!

We can climb up

and get the stars down!

[grunting]

Yes!

>> Wow!

>> [quacks]

>> ZACK: Stairs to the stars!

>> KIRA: Whoa!

>> [grunting]

Paper play saves...

[grunts] I can't...

reach it!

>> [quacks]

>> Yes!

>> [quacks]

>> [grunting]

>> FLUFFY: Zack?

>> Huh?

>> We can help you reach

the stars.

>> Thanks, guys.

>> [straining]

>> Wow! Good job, guys!

>> [jingling]

>> [jingling] >> Poptastic!

>> Poptastic!

>> [quacks]

>> [chuckles]

>> Way to go!

>> Yes!

>> [quacks]

>> Paper play saves the day!

>> [cheering]

>> [cheering] >> Hooray!

>> Hooray!

>> We're all set for Christmas.

Well, everyone ready?

>> Ready!

>> Ready!

>> BOTH: Ready!

It's all here on our list.

Santa's going to know

Quack and I want to learn

That's an iceberg!

is frozen inside!

How's Santa going to know

what to bring us

if he doesn't get our list?

not coming, Belly Up?

what it means.

Christmas is...canceled.

If we can't mail the letter

to Santa, then we'll just

have to take it to the

It's the North Pole!

Maybe your new friend

What do you say?

Could you give us a lift

his Christmas deliveries.

>> Wrinkles!

>> If we don't give our list

to Santa, none of our

friends will have any presents.

We've gotta catch up with him.

Now, what's going on?

Santa, we...

Uh, well,

the mail--the mailbox.

Uh, it was frozen and, uh...

>> We want to give you

our Christmas list, Santa.

>> Oh.

You'd better hand it over.

Hold the reigns.

This looks bad!

How am I going to deliver

It's almost Christmas!

Crumples!

No one's going to get

>> Quack, that's it!

You're a genius!

>> [quacks]

>> We can still save Christmas.

>> There's no way

we'll get all these presents

delivered in time.

>> There is if we catapult

them all at once.

>> Catapult?

>> Come on, everyone.

Let's gather up all the presents

and put them in a big pile!
