[ Screams ]

[ Crank ]

[ Screech ]

Nobody moves, nobody dies.

Ah-ah-ah-choo!

Ah-h-h-h!

I don't think | Ernest is going to make it.

This is the 2nd job | I've lost tonight.

[ Screams ]

Slow down-n-n-n!

Air brakes! | Ha! Ha! Ha!

Ernest, well done!

Bravo, Ernest!

Whoa! Whoa!

Hiya, folks!

Ernest P. Worrell, | Aerial Taxi, at your service.

Ernest, you flew the sleigh?

We told him not to.

That's terrific!

But we thought | it was a great idea.

It's all yours,Joe.

You better get going.

Well, I'm going to go home,

so I guess I'm not | going to see you again.

[ As John Wayne ] | Keep your nose clean, little lady.

I'm going to miss you, | too, Ernest.

Well,Joe, | I guess these are yours now.

Watch it on the curves. | It veers a little to the left.

To the left.

Bye, fellas.

[ Together] | See ya.

[Joe ] | Is there anywhere in the book...

that says I can't have a driver | for 1 night?

Nowhere at all.

[ Santa ] | I think it's a fine idea.

[Joe ] | How 'bout it, Ernest?

You've had a lot more seat time | than I have.

I knew they'd come to their senses.

I am probably | the best man for the job.

After all, I am Ernest P. Worrell,

thrill driver!

Do you think we could use | an honorary elf?

Sure.

- [Joe ] Why not? | - All right!

Let's get these puppies pumping,

and start spreading | that Christmas cheer.

Now, Dasher; now, Dancer; | now, Prancer; now, Vixen;

on, Comet,;on, Cupid,;

on Donder; and--

[ Everyone ] | Blitzen!

Oh, yeah. | Blitzen.

Ah-h-h-h!

Oh, by the way, | we haven't been formally introduced.

My name is Mary Morrissey.

Well, once upon a time | I was called,

Seth Applegate.

I guess I am, again.

So, are you doing anything tonight?

Not a thing.

We'll think of something.

[ Chuckles ]

Ho, ho, ho! | Merry Christmas.

[ Harmony ] | All right.!

See that? I don't want | any trouble from you this time.

- That is a ''E.'' | - ''F.''

- ''E.'' | - ''F.''

- ''E.'' | - ''F.''

- ''E.'' | - ''F.''

Look, that is, ''E. Bunny.''

''F.''
