1
00:00:22,122 --> 00:00:25,535
This is Christmastown in the North Pole.
2
00:00:25,692 --> 00:00:28,430
One of the things you need to know
is that everyone who lives here...
3
00:00:28,570 --> 00:00:32,406
is happy all the time. Really happy.
4
00:00:32,565 --> 00:00:35,808
I mean, really, really happy.
5
00:00:35,969 --> 00:00:38,609
Honestly, sometimes it's a bit much.
6
00:00:38,772 --> 00:00:40,979
But happiest of all was Buddy the Elf.
7
00:00:42,108 --> 00:00:46,284
Well, he wasn't really an elf,
but we'll get to that later.
8
00:00:46,446 --> 00:00:50,023
Christmas elves enjoy themselves
By donning gay apparel
9
00:00:50,183 --> 00:00:52,322
Or by singing songs in Santa's shop
10
00:00:52,485 --> 00:00:53,759
Fa-la-la, la-la, la-la-la
11
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,477
Of course, I always like it
When they sing a Christmas carol
12
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,671
I like it even better when they stop
13
00:01:01,494 --> 00:01:05,374
Night and day, they dance and play
They never sleep much either
14
00:01:05,532 --> 00:01:07,307
Would some peace and quiet be a crime?
15
00:01:07,467 --> 00:01:08,810
Fa-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
16
00:01:08,968 --> 00:01:12,438
Of course, I love each one of them
But Santa needs a breather
17
00:01:12,605 --> 00:01:15,711
Because they're just so happy
all the time
18
00:01:15,875 --> 00:01:17,548
- They're oddly
- Happy all the time
19
00:01:17,710 --> 00:01:19,781
- Ungodly
- Happy all the time
20
00:01:19,946 --> 00:01:23,519
When they sing until they're bluish
Santa wishes he were Jewish
21
00:01:23,683 --> 00:01:25,219
- 'Cause they're
- Happy all the time
22
00:01:25,385 --> 00:01:27,387
- I swear they're
- Happy all the time
23
00:01:27,554 --> 00:01:31,525
- Bizarrely happy
- All the time
24
00:01:31,691 --> 00:01:35,138
But there's an elf called Buddy
Who makes them look apathetic
25
00:01:35,295 --> 00:01:39,004
If he were any sweeter
We might end up diabetic
26
00:01:39,165 --> 00:01:42,476
He's everybody's buddy
But he'll leave your eardrums ringing
27
00:01:42,635 --> 00:01:46,014
'Cause everywhere he goes
He has to tell the world he's singing
28
00:01:46,172 --> 00:01:48,675
I'm singing
29
00:01:48,842 --> 00:01:52,221
It's almost Christmas and I'm singing
30
00:01:52,378 --> 00:01:56,224
And I love Santa, so I'm singing
31
00:01:56,382 --> 00:01:58,362
Buddy, you're standing on an elf again.
32
00:01:58,518 --> 00:02:00,395
I thought the floor felt squishy.
33
00:02:00,553 --> 00:02:02,191
Sorry, Ming Ming.
34
00:02:02,355 --> 00:02:03,390
That's okay, Buddy.
35
00:02:03,556 --> 00:02:07,168
My spine will heal
Because I'm happy all the time
36
00:02:08,394 --> 00:02:10,567
Okay, elves, you've got toys to make.
37
00:02:10,730 --> 00:02:12,641
Yay! Time to go to work.
38
00:02:12,799 --> 00:02:14,506
Happy all the time
39
00:02:14,667 --> 00:02:16,078
Happy all the time
40
00:02:16,236 --> 00:02:19,877
Making toys is so appealing
That I spend each morning squealing
41
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:21,518
True, he's happy all the time
42
00:02:21,674 --> 00:02:24,052
- Who knew? I'm happy all the time
- Happy all the time
43
00:02:24,210 --> 00:02:26,850
He's unnaturally happy
44
00:02:27,013 --> 00:02:32,395
All the time
45
00:02:32,552 --> 00:02:35,091
Happy all the time
46
00:02:37,223 --> 00:02:40,397
Oh, no. I made a big mess again.
47
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,372
It's okay, Buddy.
48
00:02:44,097 --> 00:02:48,170
Why don't you just say it?
I'm a cotton-headed ninny-muggins.
49
00:02:56,809 --> 00:02:59,085
I break everything I touch...
50
00:02:59,245 --> 00:03:00,918
I keep stepping on Ming Ming.
51
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,493
And yesterday,
I only made 400 rocking horses.
52
00:03:04,651 --> 00:03:07,461
Sometimes I don't feel
like I'm an elf at all.
53
00:03:08,821 --> 00:03:13,201
Well, Buddy, let me tell you a story
I should have told years ago.
54
00:03:13,359 --> 00:03:14,394
A story.
55
00:03:14,561 --> 00:03:16,563
Whoo-hoo! I love story time.
56
00:03:16,729 --> 00:03:19,676
Holy moly! My legs! My legs!
57
00:03:19,832 --> 00:03:21,812
- Aah!
- A story about your legs?
58
00:03:21,968 --> 00:03:23,311
I love it already.
59
00:03:23,469 --> 00:03:26,279
No, Buddy. Just listen.
60
00:03:26,506 --> 00:03:31,717
Once upon a time, on a Christmas night,
I slid down the chimney of an orphanage.
61
00:03:31,878 --> 00:03:34,620
While I was putting presents
under the tree...
62
00:03:34,781 --> 00:03:38,126
a baby crawled, unseen,
into my toy sack...
63
00:03:38,284 --> 00:03:40,730
and I brought him back here by mistake.
64
00:03:40,887 --> 00:03:45,029
Never having stolen a baby before,
I didn't know what to do.
65
00:03:45,191 --> 00:03:48,536
So the elves took him in
and raised him as one of their own.
66
00:03:48,695 --> 00:03:54,737
And as the years went on,
he grew bigger and bigger and bigger.
67
00:03:55,134 --> 00:03:58,775
Oh. So I'm a giant elf.
68
00:03:58,938 --> 00:04:01,179
- No. Buddy, you're...
- Wait.
69
00:04:01,341 --> 00:04:03,787
I thought this was a story
about your legs.
70
00:04:03,943 --> 00:04:06,617
No, this is your story.
71
00:04:06,779 --> 00:04:08,816
The story of Buddy the Elf.
72
00:04:08,982 --> 00:04:12,555
- Well, actually, Buddy the Human.
- Human?
73
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:15,359
Your mother's name was Susan Wells.
74
00:04:15,521 --> 00:04:20,527
Now all you have left is your father,
who never knew you were born.
75
00:04:20,693 --> 00:04:22,832
His name is Walter Hobbs...
76
00:04:22,996 --> 00:04:26,739
and he lives in a strange land
called New York City.
77
00:04:26,899 --> 00:04:30,972
And he works right here
in the Empire State Building.
78
00:04:31,137 --> 00:04:32,616
In there? Ha-ha.
79
00:04:32,772 --> 00:04:34,979
Why, he must be teeny-tiny.
80
00:04:35,141 --> 00:04:37,621
Hello, Dad. Dad!
81
00:04:37,777 --> 00:04:41,020
No, don't be scared. I mean you no harm.
82
00:04:41,180 --> 00:04:43,091
This is just a snow globe, Buddy.
83
00:04:43,249 --> 00:04:45,160
Well, of course.
84
00:04:45,318 --> 00:04:48,162
I bet he's the world's greatest dad.
85
00:04:48,321 --> 00:04:49,823
Yeah, about that...
86
00:04:49,989 --> 00:04:51,900
So, what's the world's
greatest dad like?
87
00:04:52,058 --> 00:04:55,164
I mean, does he prefer candy canes
or peppermint sticks?
88
00:04:55,328 --> 00:04:57,569
Uh, he doesn't like either.
89
00:04:57,730 --> 00:05:02,338
Well, the world's greatest dad must have
a top-of-the-line, one-horse open sleigh.
90
00:05:03,903 --> 00:05:06,383
Well, then how does he dash
through the snow?
91
00:05:06,539 --> 00:05:12,182
You see, like a lot of people these days,
he's just lost the Christmas spirit.
92
00:05:12,345 --> 00:05:16,020
But Christmas spirit
is what makes your sleigh fly.
93
00:05:16,182 --> 00:05:20,130
And every year, it's tougher
to get this old girl off the ground.
94
00:05:20,286 --> 00:05:21,492
I guess it could be worse.
95
00:05:21,654 --> 00:05:24,965
- At least he's not on the Naughty List.
- Well...
96
00:05:25,124 --> 00:05:30,005
Can you imagine the world's greatest dad
a Naughty Lister?
97
00:05:30,163 --> 00:05:34,737
I mean, with their beady little eyes
and their naughty little hands...
98
00:05:34,901 --> 00:05:37,541
always grasping for presents
they don't deserve.
99
00:05:37,704 --> 00:05:39,239
Buddy.
100
00:05:39,906 --> 00:05:42,052
Let's just cut to the chase.
101
00:05:42,208 --> 00:05:46,179
Your father's been on the Naughty List
for over 50 years.
102
00:05:51,050 --> 00:05:53,894
Well, this is it. I'm all set to go.
103
00:05:54,053 --> 00:05:57,159
Now, Buddy, are you sure you wanna
go through with this?
104
00:05:57,323 --> 00:05:59,997
New York City can get a little rough.
105
00:06:00,159 --> 00:06:04,198
I've made my mind up, Santa.
I've got to get my dad off the Naughty List.
106
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:06,844
Well then, good luck, Buddy.
107
00:06:06,999 --> 00:06:09,172
- Farewell, one and all.
- Bye.
108
00:06:09,335 --> 00:06:12,373
Now, do you remember the way
to New York City?
109
00:06:12,538 --> 00:06:13,642
Sure do.
110
00:06:13,806 --> 00:06:17,185
I go through the Cotton Candy Caverns,
brave the Gumdrop Ocean...
111
00:06:17,343 --> 00:06:20,916
trek through the Candy forest,
then straight on to New York.
112
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,323
- Bye-bye.
- Good luck.
113
00:06:27,653 --> 00:06:29,291
See you later, Buddy.
114
00:06:29,455 --> 00:06:31,264
Good luck finding your dad.
115
00:06:31,424 --> 00:06:33,267
Thanks, Mr. Sea Serpent.
116
00:06:34,093 --> 00:06:36,130
I'm coming, Papa.
117
00:06:37,296 --> 00:06:39,242
We'll make angels in the snow
118
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:40,969
Till the snow begins to blow
119
00:06:41,134 --> 00:06:43,808
Then we'll run inside
and start a tickle fight
120
00:06:45,004 --> 00:06:48,110
And if it's too cold to sled
We'll eat gingerbread instead
121
00:06:48,274 --> 00:06:51,687
And then cuddle
till he tucks me in at night
122
00:06:51,844 --> 00:06:55,792
And we'll have our pictures taken
For the Christmas cards we're making
123
00:06:55,948 --> 00:06:58,656
Him and me in suits of matching plaid
124
00:06:58,818 --> 00:07:02,493
And when people see us walking
They'll be Google-eyed and gawking
125
00:07:02,655 --> 00:07:08,731
At Buddy and the world's greatest dad
126
00:07:09,395 --> 00:07:13,241
So I'm gonna try my best to be
127
00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:16,505
Everything you'd expect of me
128
00:07:16,669 --> 00:07:23,416
And I promise that I won't stop
until I'm done
129
00:07:23,576 --> 00:07:32,428
So someday you can say
I'm the world's greatest son
130
00:07:32,585 --> 00:07:34,258
Ooh! Sorry.
131
00:07:39,158 --> 00:07:40,967
Wow!
132
00:07:41,127 --> 00:07:42,697
It sure is a big city.
133
00:07:42,862 --> 00:07:45,843
How am I going to find Walter Hobbs?
134
00:07:45,998 --> 00:07:47,739
Walter Hobbs!
135
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:51,344
Excuse me, have you seen Walter Hobbs?
136
00:07:53,473 --> 00:07:56,352
- Walter?
- My name is Walter.
137
00:07:56,509 --> 00:08:00,184
Dad, it's me, Buddy. I love you so much.
138
00:08:00,346 --> 00:08:03,418
The Hobbs family
is finally back together again.
139
00:08:03,583 --> 00:08:06,393
- My last name is Franklin.
- Oh.
140
00:08:06,552 --> 00:08:08,031
My name is Hobbs.
141
00:08:08,187 --> 00:08:11,566
Then you must be my father.
You're everything I imagined.
142
00:08:11,724 --> 00:08:15,365
I can't believe I found my dad,
Walter Hobbs.
143
00:08:15,528 --> 00:08:17,269
It's Jerry Hobbs.
144
00:08:17,530 --> 00:08:19,840
This is gonna be harder than I thought.
145
00:08:19,999 --> 00:08:21,808
Are you Walter Hobbs?
146
00:08:21,968 --> 00:08:24,710
Are you Walter Hobbs?
147
00:08:26,572 --> 00:08:27,812
Ooh! Sorry.
148
00:08:27,974 --> 00:08:30,318
Excuse me. Are you Walter Hobbs?
149
00:08:30,643 --> 00:08:32,714
Is that man shouting your name, Walter?
150
00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:35,359
Of course not, Emily.
He's obviously delusional.
151
00:08:35,515 --> 00:08:37,660
Is your name Walter?
152
00:08:39,552 --> 00:08:42,055
Why is that guy dressed up
like a giant elf?
153
00:08:42,221 --> 00:08:44,929
Christmas always brings out the weirdos.
154
00:08:45,091 --> 00:08:49,562
Son of a nutcracker! My leg feels
like a shattered candy cane.
155
00:08:49,729 --> 00:08:53,108
You know what would be fun?
Let's pick out a Christmas tree tonight.
156
00:08:53,266 --> 00:08:56,736
Brilliant idea. Let's put a dead tree
in the living room.
157
00:08:56,903 --> 00:08:59,577
Come on, Dad.
Where's your Christmas spirit?
158
00:08:59,739 --> 00:09:01,946
He's right. You're turning into a grump.
159
00:09:02,108 --> 00:09:04,918
Besides, we never do anything
as a family anymore.
160
00:09:05,344 --> 00:09:07,756
You know I'm too busy
for all that nonsense.
161
00:09:07,914 --> 00:09:11,225
Hey, why don't you get
your Christmas gift early?
162
00:09:11,384 --> 00:09:13,796
Uh, look, I gotta get back to work.
163
00:09:13,953 --> 00:09:16,229
I'll see you two later.
164
00:09:16,889 --> 00:09:20,029
Michael, you know
your dad's a very busy man.
165
00:09:20,192 --> 00:09:24,197
Hey, I have an idea. Why don't we write Santa
and tell him what we want for Christmas?
166
00:09:24,597 --> 00:09:27,942
I don't believe in Santa.
All I know is what I don't want.
167
00:09:29,936 --> 00:09:31,779
I don't want a check
168
00:09:32,071 --> 00:09:34,278
That's made out to cash
169
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,320
Or a corporate regift
from some secret stash
170
00:09:38,477 --> 00:09:40,150
I'd like a day with my dad
171
00:09:40,313 --> 00:09:42,657
- Just a day?
- Make that two
172
00:09:42,815 --> 00:09:45,352
If you can do that, Santa
173
00:09:45,518 --> 00:09:48,556
I'll believe in you
174
00:09:50,423 --> 00:09:52,630
Even though it's been years
175
00:09:52,792 --> 00:09:54,863
- Since you heard from me
- Since you heard from me
176
00:09:55,027 --> 00:09:58,497
- I thought it was worth a shot
- I thought it was worth a shot
177
00:09:59,198 --> 00:10:03,340
If it's true that you're magic,
I guarantee
178
00:10:03,502 --> 00:10:06,813
- We could use all the magic you got
- We could use all the magic you got
179
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:11,249
I can get you some cookies
If that's what it takes
180
00:10:11,410 --> 00:10:15,324
I've heard stories and I know the deal
181
00:10:15,481 --> 00:10:17,518
- You just slide down the chimney
- You just slide down the chimney
182
00:10:17,683 --> 00:10:19,754
- And fix our mistakes
- And fix our mistakes
183
00:10:19,919 --> 00:10:24,891
- Now, if only I thought you were real
- Now, if only I thought you were real
184
00:10:25,057 --> 00:10:28,129
If you were real
185
00:10:29,895 --> 00:10:33,604
I guess that's our list
Our letter is done
186
00:10:33,766 --> 00:10:38,112
Is it really a list
If it adds up to one?
187
00:10:38,270 --> 00:10:40,045
Make him part of our lives
188
00:10:40,206 --> 00:10:41,981
- Not just passing through
- Not just passing through
189
00:10:42,141 --> 00:10:44,815
- If you can do that, Santa
- If you can do that, Santa
190
00:10:44,977 --> 00:10:48,584
- I'll believe in you
- I'll believe in you
191
00:10:49,682 --> 00:10:53,960
- Yes, if you do that, Santa
- Yes, if you do that, Santa
192
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,262
- I'll believe in you
- I'll believe in you
193
00:10:58,424 --> 00:11:01,234
- So good luck, Santa
- So good luck, Santa
194
00:11:01,394 --> 00:11:05,934
- Here's hoping you come through
- Here's hoping you come through
195
00:11:07,033 --> 00:11:09,946
Signed, Emily
196
00:11:10,236 --> 00:11:16,187
And Michael too
197
00:11:21,814 --> 00:11:23,054
Ooh.
198
00:11:26,952 --> 00:11:28,590
Hot dog.
199
00:11:30,489 --> 00:11:32,400
Mr. Hobbs, you're gonna love this idea.
200
00:11:32,558 --> 00:11:36,563
It's about an outcast reindeer whose glowing
antlers help Santa through a bad storm.
201
00:11:36,729 --> 00:11:40,370
Yeah. We call it
Tony the Lite-Up Antlered Reindeer.
202
00:11:41,967 --> 00:11:43,844
That sounds awfully familiar.
203
00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:45,940
Uh, then what about this?
204
00:11:46,105 --> 00:11:49,814
It's the story of a grouchy green grouch
who hates Christmas, and then he...
205
00:11:49,975 --> 00:11:52,251
Let me stop you right there,
my brilliant writers.
206
00:11:52,411 --> 00:11:56,217
Greenway Press needs an original story,
and we need it now.
207
00:11:56,382 --> 00:11:57,417
- What?
- Mr. Hobbs...
208
00:11:57,583 --> 00:12:00,496
I think someone sent you
a Christmas-gram.
209
00:12:00,653 --> 00:12:02,423
Oh, I love the holidays.
210
00:12:03,522 --> 00:12:04,660
It's him.
211
00:12:04,824 --> 00:12:08,101
Oh, all right, let's get it over with.
Go ahead.
212
00:12:08,260 --> 00:12:09,432
Get what over with?
213
00:12:09,595 --> 00:12:11,802
Aren't you gonna sing
some dumb song for me?
214
00:12:11,964 --> 00:12:15,673
Sing? Yeah, anything for you.
215
00:12:15,835 --> 00:12:18,577
I'm here with my dad
216
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:20,445
And we never met
217
00:12:20,606 --> 00:12:22,483
And he wants me to sing him a song
218
00:12:22,641 --> 00:12:26,555
And, um, I love you
I love you, I love you
219
00:12:28,447 --> 00:12:29,687
Huh.
220
00:12:30,583 --> 00:12:31,789
Security.
221
00:12:31,951 --> 00:12:35,296
Oh, hello. Does everyone
in New York hug this tight?
222
00:12:35,654 --> 00:12:36,997
Merry Christmas, weirdo.
223
00:12:46,265 --> 00:12:49,439
Buddy's first meeting
with his father didn't go so well...
224
00:12:49,602 --> 00:12:52,636
but his luck is about to change.
225
00:12:58,711 --> 00:12:59,746
Huh?
226
00:13:08,621 --> 00:13:09,691
Unh!
227
00:13:09,855 --> 00:13:12,165
- Sorry.
- Are you okay?
228
00:13:12,324 --> 00:13:13,564
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
229
00:13:13,726 --> 00:13:16,206
That car wasn't as big
as the last one. Heh-heh.
230
00:13:17,863 --> 00:13:21,504
It's so nice to meet another human
who appreciates elf culture.
231
00:13:21,667 --> 00:13:23,772
Who doesn't love itchy tights, right?
232
00:13:23,936 --> 00:13:26,416
I'm Jovie. You must be the new guy.
233
00:13:26,572 --> 00:13:29,280
First of all, you don't need to try
so hard on the costume.
234
00:13:29,441 --> 00:13:31,284
I sewed it myself.
235
00:13:31,443 --> 00:13:33,980
Uh, cool. Also,
they'll want you to sing...
236
00:13:34,146 --> 00:13:36,820
but no one checks in on you,
so you don't have to.
237
00:13:36,982 --> 00:13:39,360
But singing's the greatest.
Santa always says:
238
00:13:39,518 --> 00:13:43,261
"The best way to spread Christmas cheer
is singing loud for all to hear."
239
00:13:43,422 --> 00:13:46,266
Deck the halls with... Come on.
Boughs of holly
240
00:13:46,425 --> 00:13:48,063
Where's your Christmas spirit?
241
00:13:48,227 --> 00:13:50,639
Nope. Sorry. I don't sing.
242
00:13:50,796 --> 00:13:56,041
You should. I bet your voice is prettier
than the call of an Arctic Warbler seal.
243
00:13:56,202 --> 00:13:57,806
- Oh. Um...
- Ooh, ooh.
244
00:13:57,970 --> 00:14:00,883
It's Santa Claus. I know him.
Do you wanna meet him?
245
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,815
- Uh...
- Come on.
246
00:14:02,975 --> 00:14:05,353
- Aah!
- Here you go.
247
00:14:05,511 --> 00:14:07,422
Santa. Santa.
248
00:14:07,580 --> 00:14:10,390
- You mind? I'm on a break.
- But it's me.
249
00:14:10,549 --> 00:14:13,894
Santa Claus, Santa Claus. Hi.
250
00:14:14,453 --> 00:14:15,727
Ah, great.
251
00:14:16,288 --> 00:14:18,029
Well, hello there.
252
00:14:18,190 --> 00:14:19,863
Ho, ho, ho.
253
00:14:20,025 --> 00:14:22,505
Wait a second.
His stomach didn't shake...
254
00:14:22,661 --> 00:14:25,403
- Oh, boy.
- ...like a bowl full of jelly. Who are you?
255
00:14:25,564 --> 00:14:28,238
What are you talking about?
I'm Santa Claus.
256
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,744
No, you're not.
257
00:14:30,903 --> 00:14:33,543
- You're a fake.
- I'm fake? Ha-ha.
258
00:14:33,706 --> 00:14:35,982
Hey, buddy, how'd you like
to be dead, huh?
259
00:14:36,141 --> 00:14:40,351
I don't know how you know my name,
but you're not really Santa.
260
00:14:40,512 --> 00:14:42,219
- Look, everybody.
- Aah!
261
00:14:45,217 --> 00:14:47,094
- Fake.
- Argh!
262
00:14:47,253 --> 00:14:51,326
Everybody, listen. He's a fake.
Fake, fake, fake. This guy's a fake.
263
00:14:51,490 --> 00:14:53,265
Fake-o.
264
00:14:55,261 --> 00:14:56,763
This guy's a fake.
265
00:14:57,096 --> 00:14:58,200
Fake Santa.
266
00:14:58,364 --> 00:15:00,537
Fake, fake, fake.
267
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:08,875
Fake.
268
00:15:09,041 --> 00:15:11,214
Come on, Buddy, the cops are coming.
269
00:15:13,178 --> 00:15:15,715
Are they like the guys
who hug you out of the building?
270
00:15:15,881 --> 00:15:17,622
What? Just go.
271
00:15:17,783 --> 00:15:19,057
When can I see you again?
272
00:15:19,485 --> 00:15:23,661
Uh, after work, I hang out at the ice rink
at Rockefeller Center.
273
00:15:23,822 --> 00:15:26,234
Uh-huh. I have no idea where that is.
274
00:15:26,392 --> 00:15:29,305
Just look for the giant
Christmas tree. Go.
275
00:15:29,461 --> 00:15:31,706
I love Christmas trees.
276
00:15:38,404 --> 00:15:41,942
Oh. Uh-huh. Stocks and bonds.
Five percent interest...
277
00:15:45,144 --> 00:15:47,852
Becky said what? Oh, my gosh.
278
00:15:58,490 --> 00:15:59,901
- What?
- Oh, uh...
279
00:16:00,059 --> 00:16:02,300
I didn't see you there, Dad. I love you.
280
00:16:02,461 --> 00:16:04,338
Would you stop with that dad stuff?
281
00:16:04,596 --> 00:16:05,870
What do you want?
282
00:16:06,231 --> 00:16:09,269
There's no easy way to say this.
283
00:16:09,435 --> 00:16:11,745
You are on the Naughty List.
284
00:16:15,207 --> 00:16:19,121
Look, I don't believe in Santa Claus
and I don't believe you're my son.
285
00:16:19,278 --> 00:16:21,781
Now, leave me alone! You got that?
286
00:16:22,514 --> 00:16:25,085
But Susan Wells was my mother.
287
00:16:25,250 --> 00:16:27,924
Susan Wells?
288
00:16:29,388 --> 00:16:32,267
Wha...? Uh, you have
another son, Walter?
289
00:16:32,424 --> 00:16:34,768
He may or may not be my son.
290
00:16:36,128 --> 00:16:39,541
Unfortunately,
the facts are pointing towards "may."
291
00:16:39,698 --> 00:16:43,077
Then, until we get this sorted out,
he needs to stay with us.
292
00:16:43,235 --> 00:16:44,407
Yay!
293
00:16:44,570 --> 00:16:47,050
But he thinks he's an elf.
294
00:16:47,206 --> 00:16:49,379
No, I was just raised by them.
295
00:16:50,909 --> 00:16:54,015
It's almost Christmas
and there's no decorations in this house.
296
00:16:54,179 --> 00:16:56,284
Oh, do you wanna decorate the apartment?
297
00:16:56,448 --> 00:16:58,826
No way. No decorations.
298
00:16:58,984 --> 00:17:01,624
All that Christmas-spirit stuff
is a scam.
299
00:17:01,887 --> 00:17:06,961
Dad says, "The holidays are a time for us
to make money, not spend it."
300
00:17:07,126 --> 00:17:09,128
No wonder he's on the Naughty List.
301
00:17:09,294 --> 00:17:10,637
Yes, that's right, Michael.
302
00:17:10,796 --> 00:17:14,903
And if I don't come up with a new book idea,
I'm not gonna be making any money.
303
00:17:15,234 --> 00:17:19,478
Come on, Dad. For once, can you
please let us put up some decorations?
304
00:17:19,638 --> 00:17:22,744
- Yeah, please. Please, please, please.
- Please, please, please.
305
00:17:22,908 --> 00:17:25,320
Fine. Just don't go overboard.
306
00:17:25,477 --> 00:17:28,583
- Oh, thank you! Yes!
- Yes! All right!
307
00:17:30,649 --> 00:17:32,720
There's a saying we have up north
308
00:17:32,885 --> 00:17:35,126
That helps us put our best foot forth
309
00:17:35,287 --> 00:17:37,767
If you wanna deck the halls for Mr. C
310
00:17:37,923 --> 00:17:42,235
Make sure
they're sparkle-jolly-twinkle-jingley
311
00:17:42,394 --> 00:17:44,203
What's that supposed to mean?
312
00:17:44,563 --> 00:17:48,841
When a room is gloomy
And its atmosphere has called it quits
313
00:17:49,001 --> 00:17:53,609
Then you must remember
That December is a time for glitz
314
00:17:53,772 --> 00:17:57,219
Never stop until each limb
On your Christmas tree
315
00:17:57,376 --> 00:18:01,290
Is sparkle-jolly-twinkle-jingley
316
00:18:02,381 --> 00:18:06,625
Pick up every ornament
That's sitting, waiting on a shelf
317
00:18:06,785 --> 00:18:11,029
While you're busy decorating
Why not decorate yourself?
318
00:18:11,190 --> 00:18:14,535
Soon you'll bring a smile
To every person you see
319
00:18:15,094 --> 00:18:19,008
- I'm sparkle-twinkle-jolly... What?
- Close enough.
320
00:18:19,164 --> 00:18:21,405
And if you're at a loss
321
00:18:21,567 --> 00:18:26,641
Remember the phrase that says
To thine own elf be true
322
00:18:26,805 --> 00:18:28,307
To thine own elf be true
323
00:18:28,474 --> 00:18:32,980
For when it comes to Christmas displays
324
00:18:33,145 --> 00:18:35,557
Look inside and you'll know what to do
325
00:18:35,714 --> 00:18:37,990
You'll know just what to do
326
00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:42,030
Put some cheery folderol
On every wall and every nook
327
00:18:42,187 --> 00:18:46,533
Tinsel up each corner
Till it's Christmas everywhere you look
328
00:18:46,692 --> 00:18:50,504
Give the world a holiday
That's bright as can be
329
00:18:53,499 --> 00:18:58,312
Make it sparkle-jolly-twinkle-jingle
Shiny-showy-cheery-Kringle
330
00:18:58,470 --> 00:19:00,711
Razzle-dazzle, ring-a-lingle
331
00:19:00,873 --> 00:19:02,910
I can't lie, it makes me tingle
332
00:19:03,075 --> 00:19:08,460
Sparkle-jolly-twinkle-jingley
333
00:19:12,417 --> 00:19:14,556
- Wow.
- Cool.
334
00:19:16,421 --> 00:19:19,527
So Buddy did his best
to spread Christmas cheer.
335
00:19:19,691 --> 00:19:24,970
But it would take more than some tinsel and
lights to get Walter off the Naughty List.
336
00:19:25,130 --> 00:19:26,871
Can you please pass the maple syrup?
337
00:19:27,032 --> 00:19:29,808
I'm sorry. I didn't set out any syrup.
338
00:19:29,968 --> 00:19:31,538
It's spaghetti.
339
00:19:31,703 --> 00:19:34,877
That's okay. I think I have some.
340
00:19:35,140 --> 00:19:37,051
Cool. Hey, me next.
341
00:19:37,209 --> 00:19:39,553
Ugh. I think I'm gonna
stick with coffee.
342
00:19:40,546 --> 00:19:43,049
- I knew it.
- Knew what, Buddy?
343
00:19:43,215 --> 00:19:46,128
I have the world's greatest dad.
344
00:19:46,418 --> 00:19:49,922
Aw, look up, honey. Mistletoe.
345
00:19:51,123 --> 00:19:52,431
Oh.
346
00:19:53,158 --> 00:19:56,970
We've been tinkering with the story
of a snowman that comes to life...
347
00:19:57,129 --> 00:19:59,200
named Freezy the Snowman.
348
00:19:59,364 --> 00:20:01,139
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We even have a song.
349
00:20:01,300 --> 00:20:02,506
Freezy the Snowman
350
00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:04,944
He was made from balls
of snow, and then...
351
00:20:05,103 --> 00:20:07,600
Okay, okay. I've heard enough.
352
00:20:07,973 --> 00:20:11,318
Psst. Dad, Dad,
do you wanna hear me play the kazoo?
353
00:20:13,011 --> 00:20:15,013
Buddy, enough with the kazoo!
354
00:20:17,249 --> 00:20:21,197
I'm sorry. But my boss, Mr. Greenway,
gets really cranky when he's upset.
355
00:20:21,353 --> 00:20:22,957
What kind of an office is this?
356
00:20:23,121 --> 00:20:25,226
Doesn't anyone do any work around here?
357
00:20:25,390 --> 00:20:27,996
- I ought to fire the whole lot of you.
- Shh.
358
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,505
I've never seen an office
as poorly run as this one.
359
00:20:31,663 --> 00:20:35,178
- Good morning, Mr. Greenway.
- Good morning, Mr. Greenway.
360
00:20:35,334 --> 00:20:37,143
Zip it. You're fired!
361
00:20:37,302 --> 00:20:40,181
- Buy some cookies?
- You're fired!
362
00:20:41,540 --> 00:20:42,644
You're fired!
363
00:20:43,141 --> 00:20:45,519
Fired! Fired! Fired!
364
00:20:45,677 --> 00:20:47,281
Fired!
365
00:20:47,546 --> 00:20:51,460
What am I paying you for?
Get back to work!
366
00:20:51,650 --> 00:20:55,860
Oh. When my boss is having a tough day,
we bring him milk and cookies...
367
00:20:56,021 --> 00:20:58,592
and sing Christmas carols
so he forgets his troubles.
368
00:20:58,757 --> 00:21:00,896
Buddy, you're a genius.
369
00:21:01,159 --> 00:21:05,107
We distract Greenway with tinsel and eggnog,
and all that other holiday nonsense...
370
00:21:05,264 --> 00:21:07,437
make him feel that Christmas spirit...
371
00:21:07,599 --> 00:21:10,136
and he won't notice
how lame our ideas are.
372
00:21:10,902 --> 00:21:15,749
Oh. I can help decorate. And we can all
dress up like gingerbread men and sing.
373
00:21:15,907 --> 00:21:18,615
Uh, that's okay, Buddy.
We can handle it from here.
374
00:21:18,777 --> 00:21:20,779
Why don't you take
the rest of the day off?
375
00:21:20,946 --> 00:21:23,260
Thanks, Pop. You're the greatest.
376
00:21:25,350 --> 00:21:28,695
Uh, where's Rockefeller Center?
377
00:21:32,791 --> 00:21:34,828
- Hey, Jovie!
- Huh?
378
00:21:38,397 --> 00:21:42,004
You weren't kidding. That is a big tree.
379
00:21:42,167 --> 00:21:45,410
Yeah, my mom used to take me here
over the holidays as a kid.
380
00:21:45,570 --> 00:21:48,915
It's kind of fun watching skaters
fall on their butts.
381
00:21:50,609 --> 00:21:52,850
- Let's go skating.
- Mm...
382
00:21:53,545 --> 00:21:54,785
I'm not very good.
383
00:21:54,946 --> 00:21:58,086
Well, neither am I.
I was the worst skater in the North Pole.
384
00:21:58,250 --> 00:21:59,957
They called me the triple klutz.
385
00:22:00,118 --> 00:22:02,120
Now, please, don't laugh.
386
00:22:02,287 --> 00:22:04,767
Okay. Do you need to hold onto me?
387
00:22:04,923 --> 00:22:06,163
Huh?
388
00:22:24,209 --> 00:22:27,884
- Uh, oh, yeah, Buddy. You're terrible.
- I know.
389
00:22:28,046 --> 00:22:31,892
The final rotation of my octuple salchow
wasn't very clean. Oh.
390
00:22:32,050 --> 00:22:33,927
Anyway, so who's your favorite reindeer?
391
00:22:34,086 --> 00:22:37,295
Mine's Dasher, followed by Comet,
but he can be a little messy.
392
00:22:37,456 --> 00:22:40,596
I wish I could still get as excited
about the holidays as you.
393
00:22:40,759 --> 00:22:43,865
I always say the best way
to spread Christmas cheer...
394
00:22:44,029 --> 00:22:46,566
is singing loud for all to hear.
395
00:22:46,732 --> 00:22:48,905
I don't sing, remember?
396
00:22:49,067 --> 00:22:52,947
Come on, Jovie, singing can be easy
397
00:22:53,105 --> 00:22:54,140
Please, stop.
398
00:22:54,306 --> 00:22:57,310
It's fun, it's free,
and best of all it's...
399
00:22:57,476 --> 00:22:59,820
- Totally cheesy?
- Come on.
400
00:22:59,978 --> 00:23:04,620
All you have to do
Is move your voice much higher
401
00:23:04,783 --> 00:23:07,821
High, low, high, low
402
00:23:07,986 --> 00:23:09,021
High
403
00:23:09,187 --> 00:23:12,794
It's just like talking only you sustain it
And make it sound pretty
404
00:23:13,859 --> 00:23:14,894
No.
405
00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:18,803
Just sing a Christmas song
406
00:23:18,964 --> 00:23:22,810
It's like magic if things go wrong
407
00:23:22,968 --> 00:23:26,541
Just spread some Christmas cheer
408
00:23:26,705 --> 00:23:32,053
By singing loud for all to hear
409
00:23:32,210 --> 00:23:35,123
- But when I sing, people stare.
- That's the point.
410
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,626
And if you're short on cheer
Think about that year
411
00:23:39,785 --> 00:23:43,961
You woke up to find
A brand-new snow had fallen
412
00:23:44,122 --> 00:23:48,628
The ornaments you made
Way back in second grade
413
00:23:48,794 --> 00:23:52,799
Untangling the Christmas lights
Took your father several nights
414
00:23:52,964 --> 00:23:57,071
Your mother claimed that she had proof
There were reindeer on the roof
415
00:23:57,235 --> 00:24:02,514
Remember who you were back then
Let those moments live again
416
00:24:02,674 --> 00:24:05,450
Come on, Jovie. Try it for me.
417
00:24:05,610 --> 00:24:08,819
Just sing a Christmas song
418
00:24:08,980 --> 00:24:10,015
That's it.
419
00:24:10,182 --> 00:24:12,924
It's like magic if things go wrong
420
00:24:13,084 --> 00:24:14,154
Keep going.
421
00:24:14,319 --> 00:24:17,732
Think of the joy you'll bring
422
00:24:17,889 --> 00:24:21,928
- If you just close your eyes
- If you just close your eyes
423
00:24:22,093 --> 00:24:25,802
- If you just close your eyes
- If you just close your eyes
424
00:24:25,964 --> 00:24:29,070
- If you just close your eyes
- If you just close your eyes
425
00:24:29,234 --> 00:24:34,707
- And sing
- And sing
426
00:24:42,380 --> 00:24:44,360
Aw, shucks.
427
00:24:46,218 --> 00:24:49,859
- And so...
- Freezy, the green grouchy snowman...
428
00:24:50,021 --> 00:24:52,968
with the light-up antlers
flew through the terrible storm...
429
00:24:53,124 --> 00:24:56,401
and delivered the presents
to the Whys of Whyville.
430
00:24:56,561 --> 00:24:59,007
Merry Christmas, everyone.
431
00:24:59,164 --> 00:25:01,346
You know, maybe it's the eggnog talking,
432
00:25:01,496 --> 00:25:04,429
but this is the best idea
I've heard all year.
433
00:25:04,579 --> 00:25:07,583
Thank you, Mr. Greenway.
We put a lot of work into it.
434
00:25:07,739 --> 00:25:09,912
Dad, Dad, Dad.
435
00:25:10,075 --> 00:25:12,885
I'm in love! I'm in love! Love!
436
00:25:13,044 --> 00:25:16,678
Just sing a Christmas song...
437
00:25:17,048 --> 00:25:19,961
You didn't tell me
you had elves working here.
438
00:25:20,118 --> 00:25:23,190
Is, uh, this part of the presentation?
Heh-heh.
439
00:25:23,355 --> 00:25:24,390
Very funny.
440
00:25:24,556 --> 00:25:25,660
No, this is...
441
00:25:25,824 --> 00:25:28,828
Oh, no. Did you leave your uniform
at Santa's workshop?
442
00:25:28,994 --> 00:25:30,974
That's okay, I have a spare.
443
00:25:31,129 --> 00:25:34,338
If this is supposed to be putting me
in the Christmas spirit...
444
00:25:34,499 --> 00:25:36,103
it's not working.
445
00:25:36,268 --> 00:25:39,806
Okay, arm through here.
Stop squirming, stop squirming.
446
00:25:39,971 --> 00:25:41,917
Ouch. You got me in the eye. Ha-ha.
447
00:25:42,674 --> 00:25:44,244
These are too big.
448
00:25:44,409 --> 00:25:48,050
You must have the smallest feet
in the whole North Pole.
449
00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:51,456
Tiny feet.
Look at your little tiny fee...
450
00:25:52,717 --> 00:25:57,097
Aah! I have never been so humiliated
in my life, Hobbs!
451
00:25:57,255 --> 00:26:00,793
And I can't believe I almost fell
for your song and dance!
452
00:26:00,959 --> 00:26:02,597
Your story was terrible!
453
00:26:02,761 --> 00:26:05,367
Sir, have a little more eggnog? Please?
454
00:26:05,530 --> 00:26:09,478
Tomorrow night,
you'd better bring me an original idea!
455
00:26:09,634 --> 00:26:12,012
Tomorrow night?
But that's Christmas Eve.
456
00:26:12,170 --> 00:26:15,982
I don't care! You're gonna give me
the best Christmas story ever...
457
00:26:16,141 --> 00:26:17,449
or you're fired!
458
00:26:17,609 --> 00:26:19,384
- But...
- Fired!
459
00:26:19,544 --> 00:26:23,583
Get out of my way, you pencil-necks!
460
00:26:23,748 --> 00:26:24,783
Wow.
461
00:26:25,116 --> 00:26:28,290
- He's an angry elf.
- Buddy!
462
00:26:28,453 --> 00:26:30,763
- Do you realize what you've just done?
- No.
463
00:26:30,922 --> 00:26:32,458
Get out!
464
00:26:32,624 --> 00:26:36,504
- Out where?
- I don't care. I don't care! Just go!
465
00:26:36,661 --> 00:26:39,141
You're not an elf! You're not my son!
466
00:26:53,311 --> 00:26:54,551
It was Christmas Eve...
467
00:26:54,713 --> 00:26:58,820
and Buddy had never been more unhappy
in his entire life.
468
00:26:58,984 --> 00:27:02,454
Because of those terrible things
Walter said to him...
469
00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:08,026
he left their home and wandered alone
through the streets of the city.
470
00:27:24,376 --> 00:27:25,855
Give me another.
471
00:27:26,011 --> 00:27:28,048
I think you've had enough, buddy.
472
00:27:28,213 --> 00:27:30,159
I'll tell you when I've had enough.
473
00:27:30,315 --> 00:27:33,194
Just keep the syrup coming.
474
00:27:38,857 --> 00:27:43,363
How can a city so big
have so little Christmas spirit?
475
00:27:43,528 --> 00:27:45,405
It's getting worse and worse every year.
476
00:27:45,563 --> 00:27:49,170
At least you're an elf. You don't have
to listen to kids telling you you're a fake.
477
00:27:49,334 --> 00:27:51,007
Well, you are fake.
478
00:27:51,169 --> 00:27:52,807
You're all fakes.
479
00:27:52,971 --> 00:27:54,814
Fakes.
480
00:27:54,973 --> 00:27:57,146
We're just trying to spread
a little Christmas cheer.
481
00:27:57,308 --> 00:27:58,912
And what do we get in return?
482
00:27:59,077 --> 00:28:02,058
Bruises on our thighs
in the shape of kids' butts.
483
00:28:02,213 --> 00:28:04,659
Years ago, kids would light up
when they saw you.
484
00:28:04,816 --> 00:28:07,387
Now they just sit on your lap
and text each other.
485
00:28:07,552 --> 00:28:09,964
No respect at all.
486
00:28:12,624 --> 00:28:15,104
Used to be
487
00:28:15,260 --> 00:28:18,673
I'd stand on the busiest corner
488
00:28:18,863 --> 00:28:25,439
Ring my bell
And make the people smile
489
00:28:25,603 --> 00:28:31,781
Nowadays, they pass me by
And who knows why?
490
00:28:31,943 --> 00:28:38,258
Could it be that old St. Nick's
Gone out of style?
491
00:28:38,416 --> 00:28:41,954
Well, nobody cares
Nobody cares
492
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,726
Nobody cares about Santa
493
00:28:45,457 --> 00:28:48,199
They read their list
Then you get dismissed
494
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:52,273
'Cause nobody cares about Santa Claus
495
00:28:52,430 --> 00:28:55,775
Is this all a sign?
496
00:28:55,934 --> 00:28:58,938
Is this all an awful sign?
497
00:28:59,104 --> 00:29:02,449
Of a sad decline?
498
00:29:02,607 --> 00:29:05,213
A miserable, sad decline
499
00:29:05,376 --> 00:29:08,255
I never knew such disrespect
500
00:29:08,413 --> 00:29:11,622
Could ever have existed
501
00:29:11,783 --> 00:29:18,723
No wonder this whole city
Has been naughty-listed
502
00:29:18,890 --> 00:29:22,895
I kind of get that feeling too
503
00:29:23,061 --> 00:29:25,564
Well, nobody cares
504
00:29:25,730 --> 00:29:28,006
Nobody cares
505
00:29:28,166 --> 00:29:31,045
Nobody cares about Santa
506
00:29:31,870 --> 00:29:33,372
The bringer of bliss
507
00:29:33,538 --> 00:29:37,884
What kind of world is this?
508
00:29:38,042 --> 00:29:41,615
Where nobody cares about weary
509
00:29:41,780 --> 00:29:43,225
Fed up
510
00:29:43,381 --> 00:29:45,691
Ready-to-hang-the-sled-up
511
00:29:45,850 --> 00:29:50,026
Santa Claus?
512
00:29:50,188 --> 00:29:51,565
Ho, ho, ho?
513
00:29:51,723 --> 00:29:53,725
No, no, no
514
00:30:00,832 --> 00:30:03,335
- Buddy, we're home.
- Buddy.
515
00:30:03,501 --> 00:30:04,741
Where is he?
516
00:30:07,205 --> 00:30:09,344
We have to find him, Mom.
517
00:30:10,842 --> 00:30:14,551
Okay, Mr. Greenway, we've come up
with a couple quite original ideas.
518
00:30:14,712 --> 00:30:16,555
- Dad. We need your help.
- Wha...?
519
00:30:16,714 --> 00:30:18,785
Michael, Emily, what are you doing here?
520
00:30:18,950 --> 00:30:22,022
- I told you I have to work tonight.
- Buddy ran away, Walter.
521
00:30:22,187 --> 00:30:24,360
What's going on here, Hobbs?
522
00:30:24,522 --> 00:30:26,695
Sorry, Mr. Greenway.
It'll just be a second.
523
00:30:26,858 --> 00:30:29,862
Please. This is a very
important meeting.
524
00:30:30,028 --> 00:30:32,269
What's more important than your family?
525
00:30:32,430 --> 00:30:36,572
I'll tell you, snotnose.
Money is what's more important.
526
00:30:36,835 --> 00:30:39,281
Please, don't speak to my son that way,
Mr. Greenway.
527
00:30:39,437 --> 00:30:43,647
Well, someone has to,
or else he'll turn out like your other kid.
528
00:30:43,808 --> 00:30:47,221
I hope I turn out like him.
Buddy cares about everybody.
529
00:30:47,512 --> 00:30:49,423
You just care about yourself.
530
00:30:51,049 --> 00:30:53,256
Come on, Mom. Dad needs to work.
531
00:30:53,418 --> 00:30:56,592
Yes, thank you.
You've wasted enough of our time.
532
00:30:56,754 --> 00:30:58,927
Now, go ahead, Hobbs.
533
00:30:59,324 --> 00:31:01,770
Uh, yeah.
534
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,835
Emily? Michael? Wait.
You'll wanna hear this too.
535
00:31:06,231 --> 00:31:07,938
Here's the story.
536
00:31:08,099 --> 00:31:09,169
It's called:
537
00:31:09,701 --> 00:31:11,738
I Quit.
538
00:31:13,104 --> 00:31:14,515
Excuse me?
539
00:31:14,672 --> 00:31:17,243
That's right, Greenway. I quit.
540
00:31:17,408 --> 00:31:20,617
You wanna spend Christmas
on the unemployment line?
541
00:31:20,778 --> 00:31:23,850
No, I wanna spend Christmas
with my family.
542
00:31:24,015 --> 00:31:26,495
Singing, drinking eggnog,
and opening presents.
543
00:31:26,651 --> 00:31:27,789
All right, Dad.
544
00:31:27,952 --> 00:31:30,432
Oh, Walter, it's about time.
545
00:31:30,588 --> 00:31:32,693
Let's go find your brother.
546
00:31:41,566 --> 00:31:44,979
Oh, look, another fake Santa.
547
00:31:45,136 --> 00:31:48,015
You're not fooling anyone
with your flying sleigh.
548
00:31:48,172 --> 00:31:53,178
I can see the strings.
You're a big fat fakety-fake fake.
549
00:31:55,113 --> 00:31:57,650
Whoa. That's the real Santa.
550
00:31:57,815 --> 00:32:00,193
His sleigh doesn't have enough
Christmas spirit.
551
00:32:00,351 --> 00:32:01,625
He's gonna crash.
552
00:32:01,786 --> 00:32:04,164
I'm coming, Santa.
553
00:32:05,523 --> 00:32:06,695
Sorry.
554
00:32:09,861 --> 00:32:12,341
Buddy? Buddy?
555
00:32:12,497 --> 00:32:13,737
Where could he have gone?
556
00:32:13,898 --> 00:32:17,004
We really need a Christmas miracle
right now.
557
00:32:19,837 --> 00:32:22,340
Did you see what I just saw?
558
00:32:22,507 --> 00:32:23,952
I saw a tiny sleigh
559
00:32:24,108 --> 00:32:28,682
Make its tiny way
Right across the sky
560
00:32:28,846 --> 00:32:31,850
There wasn't time to think
There wasn't time to blink
561
00:32:32,016 --> 00:32:34,792
Before it zoomed right by
562
00:32:34,953 --> 00:32:36,626
And everything I knew, I knew
563
00:32:36,788 --> 00:32:41,259
And everything that you knew too
Is absolutely now untrue because
564
00:32:41,426 --> 00:32:45,670
Without a doubt there is a Santa Claus
565
00:32:45,830 --> 00:32:47,434
I didn't see Santa Claus, Michael.
566
00:32:47,598 --> 00:32:50,511
It's hard to be sedate
Or keep your head on straight
567
00:32:50,668 --> 00:32:54,115
When fairy tales come true
568
00:32:54,272 --> 00:32:56,809
Though I can't complain
'Cause if I'm insane
569
00:32:56,975 --> 00:33:00,388
That means you are too
570
00:33:00,545 --> 00:33:03,116
So why don't we make a pact
A solemn pledge to be exact
571
00:33:03,281 --> 00:33:06,091
That Santa's real?
In fact he always was
572
00:33:06,384 --> 00:33:09,524
I know I've had my doubts before
573
00:33:09,687 --> 00:33:12,930
But now there's proof I can't ignore
574
00:33:13,091 --> 00:33:15,867
So why deny it anymore?
575
00:33:16,027 --> 00:33:22,741
- There is a Santa Claus
- There is a Santa Claus
576
00:33:25,970 --> 00:33:30,112
Come on. If that's Santa,
Buddy can't be far behind.
577
00:33:31,109 --> 00:33:34,955
Now, we all know Santa's sleigh
is powered by Christmas spirit...
578
00:33:35,113 --> 00:33:38,219
but there aren't so many believers
these days.
579
00:33:38,383 --> 00:33:39,828
So guess who's about to have...
580
00:33:39,984 --> 00:33:41,463
- an emergency landing.
- Aah!
581
00:33:41,619 --> 00:33:43,257
Buddy?
582
00:33:43,421 --> 00:33:45,560
- Buddy?
- Buddy?
583
00:33:45,723 --> 00:33:47,760
There's no way Buddy's out here.
584
00:33:47,925 --> 00:33:48,995
Buddy.
585
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,231
- Hi, Buddy.
- Hi.
586
00:33:51,396 --> 00:33:54,639
- Buddy. Oh, we were so worried.
- I knew we'd find you.
587
00:33:54,799 --> 00:33:56,870
Buddy, I'm glad you're okay.
588
00:33:57,035 --> 00:33:58,946
I have something I need to say to you.
589
00:33:59,103 --> 00:34:00,741
And I have something to say to you.
590
00:34:01,039 --> 00:34:03,576
It can wait. This is important.
591
00:34:03,741 --> 00:34:06,130
But mine's really, really,
really important.
592
00:34:06,270 --> 00:34:09,550
- Then go ahead.
- Santa's sleigh is about to crash...
593
00:34:09,714 --> 00:34:12,820
- because there's not enough Christmas spirit.
- Okay, that can wait. Listen.
594
00:34:12,984 --> 00:34:14,327
Ever since you showed up...
595
00:34:14,485 --> 00:34:17,329
you've brought this family closer
than it's ever been.
596
00:34:17,722 --> 00:34:20,100
You've filled my heart
with Christmas spirit.
597
00:34:20,258 --> 00:34:23,705
This whole elf thing is a little weird,
but I know you're my son, Buddy...
598
00:34:23,861 --> 00:34:24,931
and I love you.
599
00:34:25,396 --> 00:34:27,000
I love you too, Dad.
600
00:34:27,165 --> 00:34:29,805
Okay, that's enough.
601
00:34:32,770 --> 00:34:34,613
Whoa, cool.
602
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:37,918
Ho, ho. That was a close one.
603
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:40,556
Hello, Buddy.
604
00:34:40,711 --> 00:34:41,746
Who's this?
605
00:34:41,913 --> 00:34:46,259
Everyone, I'd like you to meet
my really good friend, Santa Claus.
606
00:34:46,417 --> 00:34:48,795
Walter, I'm very proud of you.
607
00:34:48,953 --> 00:34:52,127
You've rediscovered
the true meaning of Christmas:
608
00:34:52,290 --> 00:34:53,792
Your family.
609
00:34:53,958 --> 00:34:55,232
Congratulations.
610
00:34:55,393 --> 00:34:59,341
You, sir, are officially
off the Naughty List.
611
00:34:59,497 --> 00:35:00,976
Yes!
612
00:35:01,132 --> 00:35:02,236
Santa Claus!
613
00:35:02,667 --> 00:35:04,874
Nice to meet you, Michael.
614
00:35:05,036 --> 00:35:06,572
I can't believe this.
615
00:35:06,737 --> 00:35:10,184
Now that you're off the Naughty List,
Walter...
616
00:35:10,775 --> 00:35:13,449
But this is crazy. How is this possible?
617
00:35:13,611 --> 00:35:14,988
Just open it, Dad.
618
00:35:15,146 --> 00:35:17,126
Is this what I think it is?
619
00:35:17,281 --> 00:35:20,592
The skateboard I asked for
when I was 5 years old?
620
00:35:20,751 --> 00:35:24,062
Of course not. What are you going to do
with a skateboard?
621
00:35:24,222 --> 00:35:25,326
It's a shirt.
622
00:35:27,825 --> 00:35:30,203
Ha-ha-ha. It's a skateboard.
623
00:35:30,595 --> 00:35:32,199
You're real.
624
00:35:32,363 --> 00:35:34,843
Santa Claus is real.
625
00:35:34,999 --> 00:35:36,514
Wow!
626
00:35:38,269 --> 00:35:39,942
Whoa, what just happened?
627
00:35:40,104 --> 00:35:43,517
Your dad's Christmas spirit
just made my sleigh fly.
628
00:35:43,674 --> 00:35:47,512
But we're gonna need a whole lot more
to get it back in the air.
629
00:35:52,183 --> 00:35:54,424
Oh, no. I was worried about this.
630
00:35:54,585 --> 00:35:57,725
- What is it?
- Is it who I think it is?
631
00:35:57,955 --> 00:36:01,698
Yep. Naughty Listers.
632
00:36:01,859 --> 00:36:05,432
Yeah, and we're here
for the presents, jerk.
633
00:36:06,364 --> 00:36:07,968
Mr. Greenway?
634
00:36:08,132 --> 00:36:10,112
Don't be so surprised, Hobbs.
635
00:36:10,268 --> 00:36:12,441
Of course, I'm on the Naughty List.
636
00:36:12,603 --> 00:36:16,210
Time to give up those presents, fatso!
637
00:36:16,374 --> 00:36:18,376
No way, José.
638
00:36:18,543 --> 00:36:22,719
Go spread as much Christmas cheer as you can
and we'll get that sleigh off the ground.
639
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,382
Go, go, go.
640
00:36:26,884 --> 00:36:29,330
Get those presents!
641
00:36:29,487 --> 00:36:31,228
All right, Buddy.
642
00:36:31,389 --> 00:36:32,732
Lock and load.
643
00:36:33,024 --> 00:36:34,560
Let's do this.
644
00:36:37,795 --> 00:36:40,105
There's too many, Buddy. Hang on.
645
00:36:40,565 --> 00:36:42,636
Hyah! Hyah!
646
00:36:45,570 --> 00:36:47,982
Okay, let's spread some Christmas cheer.
647
00:36:48,139 --> 00:36:50,176
We can't let Buddy down.
648
00:36:50,341 --> 00:36:52,287
Buddy? Buddy the Elf?
649
00:36:52,577 --> 00:36:53,851
How do you know Buddy?
650
00:36:54,011 --> 00:36:55,422
He's the one who told me...
651
00:36:55,580 --> 00:37:00,359
the best way to spread Christmas cheer
is singing loud for all to hear.
652
00:37:00,518 --> 00:37:02,623
A song. That's a great idea.
653
00:37:02,787 --> 00:37:04,289
We should go out there and sing.
654
00:37:04,455 --> 00:37:07,163
Uh, I don't like singing
in front of people.
655
00:37:07,325 --> 00:37:10,306
Oh, where's your Christmas spirit?
Buddy needs us to do this.
656
00:37:10,461 --> 00:37:11,906
Walter, if she doesn't wanna sing...
657
00:37:12,063 --> 00:37:15,272
If Buddy's in trouble,
then I wanna help. Let's go.
658
00:37:23,574 --> 00:37:26,555
Come on, Jovie, you can do this.
659
00:37:26,711 --> 00:37:28,452
It's for Buddy.
660
00:37:28,913 --> 00:37:30,586
All you have to do
661
00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:34,628
Is move your voice much higher
662
00:37:34,785 --> 00:37:38,494
High, low, high, low
663
00:37:38,656 --> 00:37:41,535
High
664
00:37:42,893 --> 00:37:47,501
Just sing a Christmas song
665
00:37:47,665 --> 00:37:52,478
It's like magic if things go wrong
666
00:37:52,637 --> 00:37:56,744
Just spread some Christmas cheer
667
00:37:56,907 --> 00:38:01,083
By singing loud for all to hear
668
00:38:01,912 --> 00:38:06,122
Just sing a Christmas song
669
00:38:06,284 --> 00:38:10,994
And keep on singing all season long
670
00:38:11,155 --> 00:38:15,365
Think of the joy you'll bring
671
00:38:15,526 --> 00:38:19,599
If you just close your eyes and sing
672
00:38:21,966 --> 00:38:23,604
Give me those presents!
673
00:38:23,768 --> 00:38:26,009
Buddy, I don't think we can outrun them.
674
00:38:26,537 --> 00:38:29,279
We just need
a little more Christmas spirit.
675
00:38:30,441 --> 00:38:33,581
Come on, Dad. Sing.
Show some Christmas spirit.
676
00:38:35,646 --> 00:38:39,526
Just sing a Christmas song
677
00:38:39,684 --> 00:38:43,894
And keep on singing all season long
678
00:38:44,055 --> 00:38:47,730
Just sing a Christmas song
679
00:38:47,892 --> 00:38:52,398
And keep on singing all season long
680
00:38:52,930 --> 00:38:55,376
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
681
00:38:56,701 --> 00:39:00,877
And if you're short on cheer
Think about that year
682
00:39:01,038 --> 00:39:05,043
You woke up to find
A brand-new snow had fallen
683
00:39:05,209 --> 00:39:08,816
The ornaments you made
Way back in second grade
684
00:39:08,979 --> 00:39:13,485
Untangling the Christmas lights
Took your father several nights
685
00:39:13,651 --> 00:39:17,565
Your mother claimed that she had proof
There were reindeer on the roof
686
00:39:17,722 --> 00:39:23,638
Remember who you were back then
Let those moments live again
687
00:39:23,794 --> 00:39:26,434
Live again
688
00:39:28,699 --> 00:39:29,734
Whoa!
689
00:39:32,636 --> 00:39:33,842
I'm okay.
690
00:39:34,004 --> 00:39:35,642
Good job, everybody.
691
00:39:35,806 --> 00:39:40,221
Santa's got his mojo back.
Ho, ho, ho, ho.
692
00:39:40,478 --> 00:39:43,891
You want a ride back to the North Pole,
Buddy?
693
00:39:44,048 --> 00:39:47,154
No, thanks, Santa. I'm happy here.
694
00:39:47,318 --> 00:39:48,922
This is Jovie.
695
00:39:49,086 --> 00:39:51,066
I think she's my girlfriend.
696
00:39:51,222 --> 00:39:53,793
Heh, heh, heh. Hi, Santa.
697
00:39:56,994 --> 00:39:58,996
Oh, no.
698
00:39:59,997 --> 00:40:01,772
I don't have any presents.
699
00:40:03,934 --> 00:40:07,643
Just sing a Christmas song
700
00:40:07,805 --> 00:40:12,311
It's like magic if things go wrong
701
00:40:12,476 --> 00:40:17,289
Think of the joy you'll bring
If you just close your eyes
702
00:40:17,448 --> 00:40:18,859
If you just close your eyes
703
00:40:19,016 --> 00:40:21,121
Now, that's the spirit.
704
00:40:21,285 --> 00:40:26,997
Merry Christmas to all,
and to all, a good night!
705
00:40:28,692 --> 00:40:33,664
And sing
706
00:40:34,532 --> 00:40:37,741
This is the most amazing
Christmas Eve ever!
707
00:40:37,902 --> 00:40:40,644
Yeah. I don't even care
that I quit my job.
708
00:40:40,805 --> 00:40:42,375
I quit my job.
709
00:40:42,540 --> 00:40:43,712
What are we gonna do?
710
00:40:43,874 --> 00:40:45,979
We'll just cut back on some things.
711
00:40:46,143 --> 00:40:49,989
- You still got each other.
- And one heck of a story, Mr. Hobbs.
712
00:40:50,715 --> 00:40:53,852
A story. That's it.
713
00:40:59,890 --> 00:41:01,369
Page one
714
00:41:01,525 --> 00:41:05,940
Fresh out of toys
Santa makes his way back
715
00:41:06,664 --> 00:41:12,876
When he hears a small noise
From inside of his pack
716
00:41:13,571 --> 00:41:16,643
A sound that's not unlike a baby's cry
717
00:41:16,807 --> 00:41:20,846
It's enough to leave
the jolly guy perplexed
718
00:41:21,011 --> 00:41:22,046
And?
719
00:41:22,213 --> 00:41:24,625
Come on, Buddy, what comes next?
720
00:41:24,782 --> 00:41:25,954
Page two
721
00:41:26,116 --> 00:41:29,757
Back from his ride
Santa gathers his elves
722
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,365
He gathers his elves
723
00:41:31,522 --> 00:41:37,632
And they quickly decide
They'll raise the baby themselves
724
00:41:37,795 --> 00:41:41,038
The North Pole
Isn't made for humans, though
725
00:41:41,198 --> 00:41:45,442
And soon the phony elf
Begins to grow so tall
726
00:41:45,603 --> 00:41:49,141
- He
- Learns he's human after all
727
00:41:50,074 --> 00:41:53,453
It's the story of Buddy the Elf
728
00:41:53,611 --> 00:41:56,820
It's the story of Buddy the Elf
729
00:41:56,981 --> 00:41:58,392
It's the story of
730
00:41:58,549 --> 00:42:01,689
And the books
will fly right off the shelf
731
00:42:01,852 --> 00:42:05,231
It's the story of Buddy the Elf
732
00:42:06,524 --> 00:42:09,994
And maybe Buddy helps his dad
733
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,862
In a setting much like this
734
00:42:13,030 --> 00:42:19,811
And maybe his father learns
A son is something he can't dismiss
735
00:42:19,970 --> 00:42:26,785
They might learn that they need each other
Much more than they know
736
00:42:26,944 --> 00:42:33,418
Maybe the point of the story
Is it's never too late to grow
737
00:42:33,584 --> 00:42:35,791
It's never too late to grow
738
00:42:35,953 --> 00:42:39,093
It's the story of Buddy the Elf
739
00:42:39,256 --> 00:42:42,465
It's the story of Buddy the Elf
740
00:42:42,626 --> 00:42:44,003
It's the story of
741
00:42:44,161 --> 00:42:47,370
And the books will fly
right off the shelf
742
00:42:47,531 --> 00:42:52,844
It's the story of Buddy the Elf
743
00:42:53,003 --> 00:42:56,246
- I love it, I love it, I do
- The elf
744
00:42:56,407 --> 00:42:59,149
- I love it, I love it, I do
- The elf
745
00:42:59,310 --> 00:43:02,780
I love the story
Love the story, love the story
746
00:43:02,947 --> 00:43:09,922
It's the story of Buddy
747
00:43:10,454 --> 00:43:11,626
And that's it.
748
00:43:11,789 --> 00:43:13,769
That's the story of Buddy the Elf...
749
00:43:13,924 --> 00:43:17,872
which has gone on to become the
best-selling children's book in the world.
750
00:43:18,028 --> 00:43:20,304
And it probably
won't come as a surprise to you...
751
00:43:20,464 --> 00:43:23,843
that they all lived happily ever after.
752
00:43:24,001 --> 00:43:26,242
Read it again. Read it again.
753
00:43:26,403 --> 00:43:28,713
Baby Buddy loves this story.
754
00:43:32,176 --> 00:43:33,587
One more time.
755
00:43:33,744 --> 00:43:37,590
"This is Christmastown
in the North Pole..."
