Christmas Is Here Again (2007) Page #2

MISS DOWDY'S RIGHT.

NO ONE WOULD EVER PICK ME

TO BE PART:

OF THEIR FAMILY.

( sighs )

WHAT IS IT,

MR. CATERPILLAR?

OOH, HUCKLEBERRIES.

THEY DO LOOK:

DELICIOUS.

I DON'T KNOW.

MISS DOWDY SAID:

NOT TO LEAVE MY ROOM.

WELL, I AM

AWFULLY HUNGRY.

I GUESS:

IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT

AS LONG AS WE:

COME RIGHT BACK.

OH, MY.

MR. CATERPILLAR,

ARE YOU OKAY?

I GOT YOU.

- ( cooing )

- ( giggling )

YOU'RE TICKLING ME.

THANKS, MITCHELL.

HE'S JUST LOOKING

FOR FOOD.

HE'S REALLY HUNGRY.

I'M GOING TO GET HIM

SOME HUCKLEBERRIES.

MM, HUCKLEBERRIES!

LET'S GO.

( grunts )

OH.

DON'T MIND ME, DEAR.

I'M JUST PICKING BERRIES

TO BAKE A NICE FRESH

HUCKLEBERRY PIE.

MM, ARE YOU

GOING TO MAKE IT WITH

A SWEET POTATO CRUST?

HMM, I'VE NEVER

HEARD OF THAT.

WELL, I READ SOMEWHERE

THAT THE SWEETNESS

OF THE POTATO:

IS A PERFECT:

COMPLEMENT:

TO THE TARTNESS:

OF THE HUCKLEBERRY.

OOH, SOUNDS LIKE

YOU KNOW A THING OR TWO

ABOUT COOKING.

OH, YES.

I LOVE TO COOK.

I'VE READ EVERY

COOKBOOK IN OUR LIBRARY

AT LEAST TWICE.

SOMETHING TELLS ME

YOU'RE GOING TO GROW UP

TO BE A MAGNIFICENT

WORLD-FAMOUS CHEF,

MY DEAR.

ME?

OH, NO.

I DOUBT I'LL EVER

BE SO LUCKY.

NONSENSE, DEAR.

YOU CAN BE WHATEVER

YOU WANT TO BE.

IT MAY NOT SEEM:

POSSIBLE NOW,

BUT YOUR DREAMS:

CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN.

IT'S EASY TO DREAM.

JUST TRY IT AND SEE.

I WANT TO BE A PRINCE.

THAT'S IT.

I WANT TO BE:

A DOCTOR.

I WANT:

TO BE A DANCER.

I WANT TO BE:

A PRINCESS.

I WANT:

TO BE A MOMMY.

NOW LISTEN TO ME,

CHILDREN,

AND LISTEN:

TO ME GOOD.

OH, NO.

WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED

TO BE OUT HERE.

WE'D BETTER HIDE.

FILLING THE CHILDREN'S

HEADS WITH YOUR FOOLISH

NOTIONS, I SEE.

MISS DOWDY,

DREAMS ARE THE THINGS

HOPE IS MADE OF.

THOSE FOOLISH NOTIONS,

AS YOU CALL THEM,

ARE WHAT:

KEEP HOPE ALIVE.

YOU OF ALL PEOPLE

SHOULD KNOW THERE IS

NO HOPE IN THIS TOWN.

ARE THERE CHILDREN

IN THIS TOWN?

WHAT KIND:

OF SILLY QUESTION--?

OF COURSE THERE ARE.

THEN YOU OF ALL PEOPLE

SHOULD KNOW THERE IS HOPE.

YES, WELL...

UH, ENOUGH OF THIS

FOOLISHNESS.

GOOD DAY, VICTORIA.

YES, IT IS,

A VERY FINE DAY INDEED.

( owl hooting )

OH, MR. CATERPILLAR,

IT'S NO USE.

WE'VE GONE TOO FAR.

WE'LL NEVER FIND

OUR WAY HOME.

( crying )

( owl hooting )

OH.

EXCUSE ME!

( screams )

NO NO NO NO.

DON'T HIDE.

NEED HELP.

HIDING-- BAD.

HELPING-- GOOD.

HELLO?

( chuckles )

HI.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING

IN THERE?

OH, NOTHING,

JUST MAKING SHOW CONES.

WHAT DOES IT LOOK

LIKE I'M DOING?

HI. MY NAME IS

SOPHIANA.

AND THIS IS MY FRIEND

MR. CATERPILLAR.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

NOT TO BE RUDE,

BUT DO YOU MIND:

IF WE SAVE:

THE INTRODUCTIONS

UNTIL I'M FREED

FROM THIS FROZEN

BLOCK OF DEATH?!

OH, YES.

OF COURSE.

HMM.

THE TEARS WERE:

WORKING MIRACLES.

BUT I'M ALL

OUT OF TEARS.

WELL, COME A LITTLE

CLOSER:

AND I'LL PINCH YOU

REAL HARD.

WAIT, I KNOW.

HERE, THIS

SHOULD WORK.

ARE YOU LOST TOO?

ME? LOST

IN THE WOODS?

OH, NO NO NO.

THAT'S CRAZY.

NO, I GOT STUCK

IN A SNOWSTORM:

WHILE I WAS OUT:

SEARCHING FOR THE SACK.

IT'S NOT WORKING.

WAIT A MINUTE,

WAIT A MINUTE!

WHAT DOES HE KNOW?

HE'S JUST A CATERP--

YOU DID IT,

MR. CATERPILLAR!

OH, THANK YOU, THANK YOU,

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

( laughing )

THAT IS:

SO MUCH BETTER.

( sighs )

OH. OW. OW. OW.

MAKE IT STOP.

SOMEBODY MAKE IT STOP.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

BRAIN FREEZE!

OH. OW.

( laughs )

YOU'RE FUNNY.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

PAUL ROCCO:

AT YOUR SERVICE:

AND FOREVER:

IN YOUR DEBT.

( discordant

"Joy to the World" chimes )

CAN'T YOU READ

THE SIGN?

"NO TRESPASSING"--

THAT MEANS YOU.

NOW GO AWAY.

SANTA,

IT'S ME, PAUL ROCCO.

PAULY!

I THOUGHT YOU--

OH!

Narrator:

EVERYONE WAS OVERJOYED

TO HAVE PAUL ROCCO

BACK HOME SAFELY.

BUT EVEN THE ELF'S

UNEXPECTED RETURN

WAS NOT ENOUGH TO EASE

SANTA'S HEAVY HEART.

( door opens )

THAT'S RIGHT.

MRS. CLAUS WAS

THE VERY SAME WOMAN

WHO SANG TO THE CHILDREN

AT THE ORPHANAGE.

SOPHIANA WAS HAPPY

TO SEE A FAMILIAR FACE

AND EVEN HAPPIER TO SEE

THAT MRS. CLAUS

USED A SWEET POTATO CRUST

FOR HER HUCKLEBERRY PIE.

SO YOU SEE,

IT WAS KRAD:

WHO TOOK THE SACK

FROM THE SLEIGH:

THAT AWFUL NIGHT.

KRAD?

OF COURSE!

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.

WHY WOULD ANYONE DO

SUCH AN AWFUL THING?

GREED.

KRAD SUPPLIED ME

WITH THE COAL:

TO PUT IN THE STOCKINGS

OF NAUGHTY BOYS AND GIRLS.

WHEN I DECIDED:

TO STOP PUNISHING

THE NAUGHTY CHILDREN,
