[announcer reading]

[grunting]

Best tree ever!

Best Pseudotsuga menziesiiever!

[stammering] What?

That's the tree's scientific name.

It's also called a Douglas fir.

I'll just call him Douglas. Or Mr. Fir.

Hey, Movers.

I finished packing up our box of toys for Nina's Holiday Toy Drive.

-Wow! -Giving feels great!

Hey, Mitty. [chattering]

Oh, Warehouse Mouse has some toys for the drive, too.

-Thanks, Warehouse Mouse. -[Warehouse Mouse] Mm-hmm.

Hey, guys, look at these!

Ooh! Our old toys.

[Scott barking]

Hey, guys, it's my old finger puppet, Ruggles.

[Smitty] Oh, man!

You don't look so good.

Oh, wow!

These are from my first inventor set.

My Uncle Morrie gave it to me. [chuckles]

My very first xylophone.

I love this thing. Hey, hey.

-[quacking] -It's Ducky. [laughs]

[quacking] I played with him a lot!

So, what should we do with these?

I don't know, uh...

We can't take them to Nina. The kids aren't going to want them.

That's right, because they're broken.

Then I guess, uh, maybe we should throw these out.

Yeah, I guess we should.

-Since we're not using them. -Old toys.

Yeah, no use keeping them around. I'll take them to the trash.

And I'll go ahead and take these other toys over to Nina.

Yeah, OK.

[exhales]

Come on, Carol, you can do it!

There's Dasher, Dancer, Prancer...

Prancer... Prancer...

Oh, no! What's that next reindeer's name?

Vickie? Vacuum?

Vixen!

-[exclaims] -[Rich chuckles]

On Dasher, on Dancer, on Prancer and Vixen!

On Comet! On Cupid! On Donner and Blitzen!

-To the top of the porch. -To the top of the wall.

[both] Now dash away, dash away, dash away all.

Jingle bells you guys are good!

Carol, this is Rich. Rich this is Carol.

She's been studying here for hours.

Ooh! What are you studying?

I'm an elf-in-training.

But my final exam is tonight,

and unless I pass, I won't earn my elf bells.

-Elf bells? -Yes.

If I earn them, I get to deliver presents Christmas Eve with Santa!

-What? -Whoa!

But there's some stuff that keeps messing me up. Oh.

Like reindeer names.

Vixen. Vixen. Vixen. Vixen.

Oh, no!

I'll never learn all of it in time!

Carol, I think I might know some people who can help you.

-Really? -Nina is right as a reindeer.

Hey, Smitty, aren't these our old toys?

Oh, uh...

Yeah, you know, I guess I forgot to throw them out.

[chuckles] Oh, yeah.

This little duck and I spent a lot of time down at the pond.

-[quacking] -Ruggles! [barking]

Hey!

Maybe you can take these things out to the trash.

-No problem, I'll do that. -All right.

I don't know if I want to throw these out just yet.

Ooh! Maybe I'll put them over here for a while.

Hey, guys.

[all] Hey!

There's someone we want you to meet.

This is Carol and she is an elf-in-training.

[exclaims] I always wanted to be an elf!

-Really? -Oh, yeah.

I mean, you get the summers off and I'm a sucker for those curly shoes.

[all exclaiming]

Oh, look, let's do some introductions.

Uh, Carol, these are the Imagination Movers.

As the tags will tell you, you've got Smitty, and Scott and Dave.

How do you do? And this is Warehouse Mouse.

[giggles] Merry Christmas.

[all] Merry Christmas.

Deck the halls! This place looks amazing.

So Christmas-y!

Oh! Christmas-y was just the look we were going for!

Great job! I know Santa would be very impressed!

Santa? Here! Here! Here! Here! Here!

Give this to Santa.

And tell him I really, really, really, really want...

[chattering]

[laughs]

Warehouse Mouse would like you to tell Santa

that he really wants a Mega Mondo SuperMouse action figure

with the Cheesy Grip!

Well, I haven't earned my elf bells, so I haven't exactly met Santa yet.

I have to pass the test first.

And that's going to be really hard.

I don't think I'm ready.

But, Movers, you know, if she passes the test guess what?

-[all] What? -She gets to help Santa deliver presents.

And getting to fly with Santa is...

Well, I just have to pass my test. I just have to.

-This is a problem. -Yeah.

It's not just a problem.

[all] It's an Idea Emergency!

[alarm blaring]

We need to help Carol...

Pass her test.

So she can get her elf bells.

And that means we need a ho-ho-whole lot of ideas!

[all] Let's brainstorm!

[upbeat music playing]

Reach high!

Think big!

Work hard!

Have fun!

-[all exclaiming] -OK, who's got an idea?

Well, first we should find out what Carol still needs to learn.

Right.

This is my elf manual.

Everything I need to know is in here.

OK, may I take a look?

[exclaiming]

You are deceptively strong.

OK.

Stocking stuffing.

Let's see, how to jingle all the way.

Oh, yeah.

And rules for reindeer games.

-Yeah! -Oh! And candy cane bending!

That looks hard.

It was.

Now, I just need to know

these last three things

to earn my elf bells.

Well, we can help.

What's that?

I have to know all the names of Santa's reindeer.

Oh, that's not so hard.

Well, I have a good memory for lots of things,

but I'm really, really bad at remembering names.

Well, we just told you our names, can you remember those?

I know you're Tina

and you're Mitch.

You're Gabe.

You're Skippy?

[clearing throat]

That's Factory Gerbil.

Gerbil? What?

And you're the tall guy with the long hair.

I am the tall guy with long hair. Scott.

No, not Scott.

Uh, Scott!

Oh, you see!

I am terrible at remembering names.

But not all names.

Like I'll never forget Rudolph.

Wait a minute! I know why you remember Rudolph.

Because he has his own song.

You're right. Singing a song is a great way to learn things.

Hey, so that's it.

Maybe if we sing a song about the reindeer's names,

you'll be able to remember them for your test.

That's a great idea.

-OK, let's try it. -[all] Yeah!

Check, one, two, three.

Carol, you ready to give it a try?

Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen,

Comet, Cupid, Donner, Rudolph and Blitzen!

[all cheering]

Uh, what are you doing?

Oh! I'm giving myself a gold star, because now I know the reindeers' names.

Thanks, guys.

Hey, now you're one step closer to getting those elf bells.

Hey, Scott.

I thought you were gonna throw our old toys away.

Oh, right! Uh...

It must have slipped my mind.

If you want, I could throw them away.

OK. All right.

Our old toys. Ha!

[sighs]

I can't throw these out.

[chattering] Old toys.

-Oh, Mouse, they're so special. -Yeah.

One of the best things elves do is make presents that touch people's hearts.

If I ever earn my bells, that's the first thing I'll do!

Hmm.

Carol, what's the next thing you need to learn?

Well, it's kind of embarrassing.

Don't worry, ma'am. We're professionals. There's nothing we haven't heard.

Well, my name is Carol...

[all] Hi, Carol.

But I can't carol.

You mean Christmas carol?

Like Jingle Bells or Deck the Halls.

Yeah, I'm the worst.

Well, we can help with that.

You can?

Oh, sure. We've never met a bell we couldn't deck.

Or a hall we couldn't jingle.

Or a bingle, jingle... It's gonna be great.

Yeah, it'll be easy. All you gotta do is practice.

Practice makes perfect.

That's right. Movers? Nina?

OK.

And you are one step closer to delivering presents with Santa!

Santa! Santa! And then I'll get my Mega Mondo SuperMouse!

I hope so, Factory Gerbil. Huh?

I mean, I hope so, Warehouse Gerbil.

Hmm?

I mean, I hope so, Factory Mouse.

I mean...

You know what I mean.

Hey, Movers? Yeah?

Hey, look, our box of old toys is still here.

Yeah, I know. I was supposed to throw those out, but

I guess I forgot.

Hey, look at these. Huh?

You know, I built my first jet-powered sippy cup with these.

Hey, Dave, don't worry about it. I will throw this stuff out.

-Thanks. -No, problem.

Huh.

Still in tune.

I don't know if I can throw you out just yet.

Carol? What's wrong?

[sighs] Guys, it's getting late.

And there's still one more thing I need to learn.

-And it's a toughie. -What is it?

I still have to learn how to wrap presents,

and being an elf, that's a whole lot of presents.

Well, how much is a whole lot?

Think of all the presents under all the Christmas trees in all the world!

Wow! That's a whole lot of a whole lot.

Well, there's only one place in the warehouse

that would be perfect for you to learn how to wrap gifts.

-Absolutely! -No doubt!

Just one!

-[all] The gift wrapping room. -[Rich] Let's do it!

-Guys, this room is great! -Yes!

But how am I going to learn to do a job so big so fast?

I think I better just move back into my parents' tree.

-[all disagreeing] -[Nina] Don't give up.

Rudolph's nose!

I don't think even you guys can help me pass this test.

Well, I think we can!

Thanks to my latest greatest invention!

Come on!

[imitating fanfare]

The Wrap-A-Tron-O-Matic!

-Plum pudding! It's great! -Yes.

-I've never seen a better one! -No.

Um, what does it do?

Oh, what does it do, well,

the Wrap-A-Tron-O-Matic is a gift wrapping machine

that will train you to wrap presents

-very, very fast. -[Movers] Boom!

Great!

Here we go.

the finest present wrapper I've ever seen.

Indeed!

[cheering]

Holly jolly! I think I'm finally ready to take my test.

You deserve a round of applause.

Oh, uh...

[all] Good job!

You worked real hard, Carol. And we're all rooting for you.

Fingers crossed.

I really hope you get your elf bells.

Ooh! And now you get to deliver presents with Santa!

Santa! Santa! Santa!

Yes, Warehouse Mouse.

Hey! I remembered his name.

-[all exclaiming] -You did! You did!

Don't worry. If I meet Santa,

I'll be sure to tell him about your Mega Mondo SuperMouse action figure.

...Cheesy Grip!

[all] With the Cheesy Grip!

-[chuckles] -[gasps] There's not much time.

I better go.

Wish me luck.

[all] Good luck!

Hi, everybody! Merry Christmas!

[all] Merry Christmas!

Notice anything different?

[all] You earned your bells!

You passed your test!

Does this mean you got to deliver presents with Santa last night?

I did! And it was amazing.

Uh, great! What is this?

It's a surprise for all you guys.

I hope you like it. I made it myself.

-[Scott exclaiming] -[Dave] Present!

[all exclaiming]

Jingle bells! Just wind it up.

Oh, OK.

-[quacking] -[chiming]

Hey, guys, it's Ruggles.

Hey, guys. Look, it's Ducky.

[quacking]

That is definitely my xylophone. I'd recognize that sound anywhere.

You used our box of old broken toys.

One of the reasons I wanted to be an elf

is because they get to make toys that touch people's hearts.

I'm so glad I got to make this for you.

-We're glad, too. -Yeah.

I know how much your old toys mean to you.

I hope you don't mind that I used them to make this.

[all] Oh, no!

-That's what makes it so great! -Yeah!

[tearfully] It's just so beautiful.

-There you go, buddy. -Thank you.

[blows nose]

-There you go. -Oh, no. You keep that.

-Merry Christmas! -Oh, thank you!

This is the best Christmas ever!

Yeah!

[grunting]

Bah Humbug!

What's wrong, little buddy?

No SuperMouse. No Cheesy Grip!

Warehouse Mouse, Santa would never forget about you.

[exclaims]

Mitty! Mitty! Mitty! Open!

OK. OK, I'll take a peek.

-[exclaiming] -Is it? Is it?

A Mega Mondo SuperMouse! With the Cheesy Grip.

-Hey, hey, hey. -Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

[laughing]

Merry Christmas!

[all] Merry Christmas, Carol!

Hey, look! Carol gave me a gold star!

Me, too! Me, too!

Hey, I got one, too.

Guys, you know what this is?

A merry Christmas.
