Unfortunately, their replacements
didn't quite work out
the way you'd hoped...
(LAUGHING)
Like the hypnotist.
And when you hear the word "Brava,"
you'll cluck like a chicken.
See? I just can't be hypnotised.
Good luck tonight, though.
AUDIENCE:
Brava! Brava! Brava!(CLUCKING)
(LAUGHING)
And the trained dogs.
(SINGING) O Christmas tree
O Christmas tree
How lovely are...
(EXCLAIMS)
(DOGS YELPING)
(LAUGHING)
Enough!
Even if all that happened, so what?
I have a public,
and they'd stand by me through anything.
Good. If that's true, you have
nothing to worry about from the future.
Oh, where's this?
(RAT SQUEAKING)
(GASPS)
Get him, Chuzzlewit. Get him.
(CHUZZLEWIT MEOWS)
(GLASS SHATTERING)
(GROANS)
That's not... Is that me?
Go, Chuzzlewit! Go!
Oh, Chuzzlewit, I'm sorry.
That would have been your Christmas dinner.
(EXCLAIMS IN DISGUST)
What is this? A joke?
This can't be my future.
(SHIVERS)
Too cold.
Ooh! Catherine Beadnell.
"Catherine Beadnell presents
a new fashion line for spring.
"Come to her studio in Grindstone Square
"to see work from the premiere designer
in all of Europe."
(SIGHS) Catherine.
Well, I haven't seen her in...
Ages.
What? You haven't seen her
and she's a success?
Go! She can help you.
Catherine would never let you live like this.
Grindstone Square... Mmm.
But she wouldn't
be there today, it's Christmas.
Still, what are the chances
of this flyer sticking to my window?
It's almost like some kind of sign.
It is a sign!
You sent her the flyer, didn't you?
Mmm.
Do it! Go to the studio and see her.
Come on, Chuzzlewit.
(MEOWS)
Let's go visit an old friend.
Yes!
That's why you brought me here, isn't it?
Oh! This is where everything turns around.
- I want to follow her.
- Are you sure?
Yeah, of course I'm sure.
Let's not waste a second.
Very well, then.
Holiday?
Who said anything about a holiday?
- But... But it's Christmas.
- I'm aware it's Christmas.
Which means there's only two weeks
before we show the new line
of the most popular label in London.
You should want to work every day.
- But if you're not dedicated enough...
- Oh, I am. I promise.
- I'm sorry I complained, Miss Beadnell.
- Good.
I don't understand.
She doesn't sound like Catherine at all.
She sounds like...
- Eden!
- Catherine.
Looking good, Chuzzie.
(MEOWS)
I can't believe I found you here at work
on Christmas.
I thought you'd be home
with your family or...
Or celebrating somewhere.
I don't really celebrate Christmas any more.
I was a little soured on the holiday when...
When was I soured on it again?
Oh! Yes!
When you fired me
because I came in late on Christmas day.
Uh-oh.
Oh, right... Um...
No, it's okay. You actually did me a favour.
You proved I'd been wrong
and you were right.
No. No, don't say it, Catherine. Don't say it.
It is a selfish world.
And in a selfish world, the selfish succeed.
I see.
I'm not 100 percent sure
that's really true, actually.
Oh, I am.
I tried to be selfless. I looked out for you.
I looked out for everyone at the Gad's Hill.
I even tried to help out
one of the poorest orphanages in London.
- Know what happened?
- I fired you.
Which meant I had to scramble for work.
I found something,
but it took me out of town for months.
Know what I found when I got back?
No.
I found nothing.
That orphanage I was helping?
It closed down while I was away.
I'd had no idea.
There was one little girl
I was ready to take in myself.
Tammy!
Tammy!
But she was gone.
They all were.
Scattered out in the world
to try and fend for themselves.
You can imagine.
No. Not the children.
Oh, Catherine.
My point is, I learned my lesson.
Caring hurt. So I stopped.
Now I just concentrate on myself, and look!
I'm a star. Just like you used to be.
Catherine, listen.
Don't make the same mistakes I made.
You're better than that. Don't be like me.
Do you hear me, Catherine? Catherine!
So, you can't help me?
I'm done helping people, Eden.
It never works.
Oh, I see.
I'm... I'm sorry I bothered you.
Merry Christmas, Catherine.
CATHERINE:
Eden.Here, it's cold out there.
Oh, I've got it. I've got it.
(EXCLAIMS)
I've got it.
And it's completely useless.
I guess that's the way with us, Chuzzlewit,
isn't it?
Chuzzlewit?
(PURRING)
Chuzzlewit.
(SCREAMS)
(DOOR CLOSES)
(MEOWING)
(PURRS)
That's it? That's all you have to say?
How did we come to this, Chuzzlewit?
I wish...
Oh, it doesn't matter what I wish.
Come on, Chuzzlewit.
No! That can't be it! This can't be your life.
This can't be my life!
There has to be some mistake,
there has to be a way to change things.
As of now, this is the road of your future.
But it can't be! It's too horrible.
I don't want to live this life. I want to change.
Oh, please. Please just give me the chance.
I want to change. I don't want this.
Please, please.
Just give me another chance.
(GASPS) Please!
(GASPS)
(MEOWS)
- It's morning!
- MAN:
Good day, sir. Merry Christmas.(GASPS) It's Christmas morning.
It's Christmas morning!
Oh! Oh! It hasn't happened yet!
Oh! Oh, quick! The portals! Chuzzlewit! Oh!
All those portals of the future,
we can choose a new one.
A new portal, yes.
We don't have to make the same mistakes!
We can change everything!
Oh, yes! Chuzzlewit, we can...
(STAMMERING) Help people.
Help people, yes.
(CHUCKLING) We can make this
the best Christmas ever!
Wonderful, Chuzzlewit.
(EXCLAIMS)
We have to go shopping!
Can't do shopping, I'm not dressed.
Oh, it's Christmas. The stores are all closed.
Chuzzlewit, what do we do?
(MOANS)
Yes. We'll go shopping right here.
Come on, Chuzzlewit, let's do it.
Let's go Christmas shopping.
(EXCLAIMS)
(CHRISTMAS CAROL PLAYING)
(DOOR CLOSING)
Stop! Stop the rehearsal, stop everything.
(GROANS)
Whoa!
Please, don't fire us. We're all here.
Okay, yes,
maybe we're a couple of minutes late, but...
- Please, let us...
- Keep our jobs.
No, it's okay. It's okay.
I'm not here to fire anyone.
It's Christmas.
I'm here to send you home to your families!
But you said...
Well, forget what I said.
I was crazy, I was wrong!
Go! Go!
I mean, wait. Stop!
Come back. I have presents.
And look, a little elf, elf,
elf to help me deliver them.
for the last minute.
And, of course, everything was closed today.
So I had to just grab what I had, but...
Merry Christmas, Maurice.
Ann!
Nan. Careful! Heavier than it looks.
