not a Christmas...

Tree?

[light music]

[]

- Are you okay?

- Yes! Someone get me a pot,

a shovel, and ornaments.

Quick!

- You heard the professor.

And while you're at it,

get rid of this ugly cactus.

[groans]

Oh...

- I don't know how you got here,

my little friend,

but thank Christmas

you made it.

[heroic music]

[]

- Daddy! That's him!

Grandma's tree!

I told you I saw him!

- Jiminy Christmas!

[intense music]

[cheers and applause]

[]

[laughs]

It's like my dream had a dream,

and that dream came true!

[]

[crowd commotion]

- You can do it...

- C'mon, little guy...

- Be strong.

- Be...the tree.

[groaning]

[crowd roars]

[epic, sweeping music]

[]

- Hooray! I'm a genius!

- Go, little tree!

[laughing]

[overlapping chatter, shouting]

[]

Ring those bells

and light those lights

I'm ready, so let's do this

If it's up to me,

this one will be

The Christmassy--

- Are you gonna sing that

all night?

- I might!

[Betty chuckles]

- I figured!

- Back home, my friends

can't get enough of it.

[soft music]

[]

[sighs]

Good-bye, Albert.

[]

[bang]

- Oh...

oh--uhh!

[groans]

[melancholy music]

Ah, you've gotta

be kidding me.

[groaning]

- Maisie!

Wait! I need a favor!

- Come on down

to Cactus Pete's

I'll show you a prickly

Good time...

- Pete!

[whimsical music]

[]

Thanks, guys!

- Ugh. You won, okay?

Just let me be.

Go spread joy to the world

or some reindeer-poop

like that.

- You don't really hate

Christmas, Pete.

- Oh, stop.

- What you hate

is being left out.

I know how it feels.

[exhales]

Yer talkin' nonsense.

- We're not so different,

you and me.

We both have needles,

but...

no one hangs ornaments on yours.

And that stinks.

- I...

I always wondered

what it would be like,

bein' all shiny and twinkly

and feeling the warmth of

those lights

and...making everyone

feel merry!

[]

Hmm.

[exhales]

Listen, I'm, uh...

I'm sorry.

For everything I did to you.

[sighs] I've been nothin'

but naughty this year.

- It's not too late to do nice.

- Whoo-hoo!

Hey, look at me!

I'm Mr. Shiny McTwinkly!

Ooh, sorry about

the buzz cut, ma'am.

- Don't mention it.

- Whoo-hoo!

Ha ha ha! I'm prickly!

I'm prickly,

and it's okay!

- How long are we

gonna give him?

- As long as he wants.

- Wait, what?

- After all you put me through?

You're just walking away?

- No. I'm going home.

I got some friends

who need a Christmas Tree.

[pensive music]

[]

- O, Christmas Pete

O, Christmas Pete

How heavenly are thine

Needles!

Yeah, that's the stuff!

["We Wish You A Merry Christmas" plays]

- Maisie looked that bunny

square in the eyes and said--

- You wanna piece of me?!

[laughter]

- Right, that's telling 'em!

What about

green Gene, here?

- Ah you wouldn't believe it.

Gene knew every weed

in Empire City!

- Every weed!

- Wow!

- Gene's a bad dude.

[chuckles]

What can I say?

I get around.

- I hate to alarm y'all again,

but Earth Mama's

on the move! Hurry!

- You wanna do what?

- But we've got presents

to open!

- Just one second.

- What is it with her

and that tree?

- I don't know how

you did it, little tree,

but I'm glad you're back.

Here, I made something for ya.

I'm sure I'll be

seeing you around.

I always do.

[giggles]

[light music]

- I love sappy endings.

- Yeah, me too!

- Weed!

- You can call me SCUZZ.

- Merry Christmas!

- Aah!

- How's it hanging,

fun stuff?

- Watch your mouth,

little weed boy.

[slurping]

Ohhh...

- Refill!

- I think I found my soilmate.

Mwah.

- Oh, no...

- Oh, yeah, we invited some

friends over for Christmas.

- Come on, guys!

Mingle, dance around.

This is a party!

Let's party!

[all whooping]

- Who's ready to get

their jingle on?

Ha ha ha!
