Ohhh...

A hole in the mountain

was once home to me.

You can guess

who I lived with.

Starts with a G.

We lived up in a cave

and Who's live below in a

village called Whoville.

Oh, there's some! Hello!

Hello!

Every Who down in Whoville

liked Christmas a lot!

Arf arf arf

I'm sorry, English.

Have you noticed?

The Who's they like

Christmas a lot?

But the Grinch who lived

northward of Whoville

did not.

(ominous music)

.

(suspicious music)

Oh, sorry, I'm just

looking for a snack.

So the Grinch lived up

there and the ice

in the fog and I lived

there with him.

I'm Max, his old dog

(howls)

(playful music)

There I am, way back when.

Young fur, soft brown eyes

if I looked any cuter,

I'd win a big prize.

Teenage Max,

the moody years

I'm not moving!

Leave me alone!

Truth to tell, I was sad.

Mangy coat, smelly feet,

slept alone in a ditch.

Missed my mom.

Dreamt of meat.

It wasn't that bad.

Oh...

And I found a new owner,

or rather he found me not

the best or the sweetest.

Well, you'll soon see.

It's beginning to feel

a lot like Christmas.

(ominous music)

[Grinch] What did you say?

It's a wonder I

didn't just run away.

Has my hearing gone weird

or my head may be broken,

but it seems to me, Max,

that you may have just

spoken.

I just meant

that I'm feeling a lot

less listless because

it's beginning to feel

like.

Like what, Max?

Ignore me, sir.

It's a sickness.

I hate Christmas,

the whole

frolic-some season.

And I'm sure you must

have a cast iron

good reason.

I despise Christmas Eve

and I loathe

Christmas Day.

I pooh-pooh them

in every possible way.

I abhor Christmas trees

and I scorn every wreath.

And I hate

all the who's down

in Whoville beneath.

Especially you.

At home,

Look at you.

Stop grinning.

We're not here

to enjoy ourselves.

I hate your couch.

Oh, oh, well.

We all have pet peeves,

yours seems to be yule.

I'm sorry, sir,

but you're wrong.

Yule is totally cool.

[Grinch] Heel.

I'm a dog, not a shrink,

but if it were my call,

I'd say his heart was

two sizes too small.

But whatever the reason,

his head, heart, or shoes

the Grinch hated Christmas

he hated to lose.

(ominous music)

.

(whimsical music)

Who-oo!

(all together) Who-oo!

Mama Who?

Cindy-Lou.

Can I meet the Grinch?

No, you can't.

But why not?

He's so mean

you would flinch?

But he lives all alone.

Could I make him a gift?

Don't you think that'll get

his glum spirit to lift?

I'm too busy to care.

He's a brute, Cindy-Lou.

Just forget him.

There's still so

much Who-ha to do.

You're a kind

little Who, Cindy.

Generous too.

You could give singing

lessons for your brother,

- Boo Who.

- Yeah!

(laughing)

Oh, just ignore him,

Boo Who.

Your grandpa is an old

flake, but we love him

still dearly

in spite of it.

Cake?

Have you met

the Grinch, Papa?

Yes, once or twice.

What's he like?

No, no, no, no.

He's not very nice.

All the noise, noise,

Oh, and the Who's young

down for a feast

and they'll feast

and they'll feast

then they'll sleep,

then they'll feast,

then they'll feast,

feast, feast!.

Oh, what a treat.

What did you say?

What do they eat?

The Who feast on Who

pudding and a rare

Who roast beast,

which is something

I cannot stand

in the least.

They'll say, Oh,

please pass the pancakes

and please pass the peas

and then have some

of those things.

Then have some of these!

Yummy, yummy. yummy. .

Oh, and then they'll do

something I like least

of all. Every Who down

in Whoville,

the tall and the small

will stand close together

as Christmas bells ring.

So the Grinch hurried on.

The Who's went their way,

The Who's never suspecting

their danger that day,

and he turned his fake

smile back into a frown,

When he stole those old

antlers on route

out of town.

What's his devilish plan?

Why the sewing machine?

Oh.

Whatever it was,

it was bound to be mean

All the way up mount

Crumpit, he laughed

in his throat

and back in the cave

made a hat and a coat.

And he called me

Young Max, and with yards

of red thread,

he secured those old

antlers on top of my head.

You're my people!

No flipping.

Try me in high

def, I'm worth it.

I hated to watch

The Grinch...

Oh, thank

you, thank you.

Oh, stop, please stop.

Ignore what I

said earlier.

Oh, I love your couch

Hey, hey!

This is my Emmy

nomination, Stop!

Is he done?

Yeah,

I so hated to watch the

Grinch swagger and strut.

What else could I do?

I'm just a young mutt.

So...

the Grinch hits me right

up and piled empty old

sacks in a ramshackle

sleigh for his reindeer

named Max.

And the Grinch said

to get at it!

And the sleigh

hurdled down for

the homes where the

Who's are a snooze

in their town.

Feel the force Maximillon!

Say goodbye

Christmas, children!

(dramatic music)

( whip cracking)

Whoa! Whoa!

Look below!

Santa Claus is coming

to town! Ho! Ho! Ho!

.

(whimsical music)

So it wasn't quite

Christmas,

but the night before.

When the Grinch

cackled down

from his cave with a roar,

my poor back

hurt like mad,

my young legs bellyaching

somewhere under my fur my

young heart was breaking.

The village was serene

all the lights turned

down low. Streets were all

empty, just

drifting with snow.

The children of Whoville

were dreaming of toys.

Other grown ups tried hard

not to make any noise.

I can hardly believe it!

Santy Clause!

Hello!

Why are you taking our

Christmas tree?

Ah, you know, uh....

Why are you taking our

fireplace logs?

And why does your

reindeer resemble a dog?

Oh, Prancer.

Yes, what a

funny old tyke.

You see, some reindeer's

are reindeery and some

quite dog like.

Well, my sweet little tot,

I have nothing to hide.

There's a light on this

tree that won't

light on one side.

So I'm I'm taking it home

to my workshop, my dear.

I'll repair it up there

and then I'll bring

it back here.

You're so kind.

I so am.

But return it by dawn.

But but of course.

Who are you,

my wee tiny frog spawn?

Cindy-Lou Who.

Well, get you.

Listen here,

why are you up when

the others are sleeping?

Are you spying Miss Who?

Could that be why

you're creeping?

Come on, girlie, now tell

me the minutes of flying.

I've got work to do, kid.

(sobbing)

She's actually crying, oh,

please, little Who can't

be as bad as all that?

This is me, Santa Claus.

You can tell by my hat

Max.

I mean, Prancer!

Come here on the double

this Who thing of ours is

in some sort

of trouble, I...

This is awkward.

I had such a bad dream

and it gave me a fright.

Do you think you could

stay here

just for the night?

I'm Santa Claus, my dear,

and it's Christmas Eve,

all the things I must do.

Well, you wouldn't believe.

Of course, silly me.

You'll be bushed when

the night ends and just

hurry back home to

your family and friends.

Well, in fact, Santa tends

to do Christmas solo.

Just my thing,

no big deal.

Moving on, let it go.

Was it something I said?

No, just an old injury

Oh, you're a darling.

Oh look.

What a strange

thing to see,

I appear to have fixed all

the lights on

this tree.

- Wooo!

- Shhh!

I'm fixed too, Santy.

No more fears,

no more fright, I'll be

thinking of you,

Mr. Claus.

Through the night.

But you never did tell

me, my Cindy-Lou Who

What's that spooky old

nightmare that

scarified you?

Well, I dreamt there was

someone with eyes

like a frog.

Yes.

And he hated

Christmas

And Whoville, and

children and dogs.

(Max barks)

Ah, shhh! Grrrr!

Sorry. (clears throat)

Hairball.

Go on.

And I dreamed he was

slinking along inch

by inch and then who did I

see but our neighbor,

old Grinch?

I see.

Well,

no doubt the old Grinch

thinks you're

pitiful, too.

Which is why he

prefers his seclusion

To you.

You know,

You run along now

and sleep

tiny ant sized

Who daughter.

Gah!!!

(giggles)

(yelling)

Aww, Santy.

Ok, ok

Now run along,

get that cup of cold bile.

I mean water.

Yeah.

Oh.

Woohoo!

Oh,

Max! Cease your blubbering

or I'll get shouty.

Heel!

We still have all the rest

of their Christmas

to steal.

(groans loudly)

.

(light music)

Ready!

(horn blowing)

And when Cindy Lou went up

to bed with her cup,

he snuck back

to the chimney and

stuff the tree up.

He tore through the town

while I trotted behind

and he smashed and he

grabbed every gift

he could find

He ransacked

the Who's homes,

He defooded their fridges.

He wrote Grinchy type

words on the sidewalks

and bridges,

Hashtag Grinch

On their walls,

He left nothing

but hooks and some wire.

And the last thing he took

was the log

for their fire.

And the one stuck a fool

that he left in the house

was a crumb that was even

too small for a mouse

Mouse!

Max!

And he did the same thing

to the other Who's houses,

leaving crumbs much too

small for the other

Who's mouses.

He would climb

to the window

and then very nimbly sort

of wiggle and jiggle

his way up the chimney.

It was a quarter

It was a quarter past dawn

and the Who's still in bed

The Who's still a snooze

as he packed

up his sled,

packed it up with their

presents, their ribbons,

their wrappings,

their tags, their tinsels,

all the trimmings,

the trappings,

The Who's finally woke

to a terrible site.

All the gifts and their

food had been

snatched in the night.

All the presents

have vanished

And so have the toys.

I slept like a hippo,

did you hear a noise?

No, I slept like

a mattress.

Oh, the food has left

the house.

There's not even a

crumb that would interest a

mouse.

Our dear home looks like

a tornado swept through it

So how did it happen

and just who would do it?

I think I may

know who.

And it's funny because...

Why, my dear Cindy Lou?

He looks like

Santy Claus.

Who?

And you must be so lonely.

No family, no friends,

not a present to open,

no presents to send.

Well, my sweetheart.

Our thanks.

You've been very mature.

Till I find him

and lose it.

And give him

what for!

The mad Grinch

all this time

was out pecking

his whip

his sleigh to the high

mountain tip.

Ever onward

beyond where he

roared to the night,

way up higher than I do,

a frightening height.

Up three thousand feet

to the crest

of Mount Crumpit.

He rode with his load to

the tip top to dump it.

(moans)

(wind blowing)

Pooh-pooh to the Who's.

That's the tune

I'll be humming

They're finding out now

that no Christmas

is coming.

They're just waking up.

Max, put a part of your

ear there's a noise

coming soon that we

simply must hear.

Oh, the lame Who's

will cry buckets.

That's just what

they'll do.

Ready, Max.

Get set.

Go for a Whovelle

Boo hoo

Come on

(faint carolers)

What's that?

Wait.

The sound isn't sad.

No, no. This sound

sounds merry.

Oh, it must be
