1
00:00:38,455 --> 00:00:42,417
Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!
2
00:00:51,510 --> 00:00:52,928
When I was little girl,
3
00:00:53,011 --> 00:00:55,514
Christmas Eve was my favorite night
of the year.
4
00:01:07,276 --> 00:01:09,570
I'd wait up with my brother for Santa.
5
00:01:10,195 --> 00:01:14,032
Sometimes we would fall asleep,
but I'd be dreaming of presents.
6
00:01:14,908 --> 00:01:16,368
I really love presents.
7
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,711
- Nick, he's here.
- Stop.
8
00:01:25,794 --> 00:01:27,421
Come on.
Wake up.
9
00:01:27,504 --> 00:01:29,631
- No.
- Come on, come on, come on.
10
00:02:21,934 --> 00:02:24,603
What a jolly card.
11
00:02:24,686 --> 00:02:27,856
I wonder which child made this?
12
00:02:27,940 --> 00:02:30,484
Over here! Right here!
I caught you.
13
00:02:31,068 --> 00:02:32,194
You did.
14
00:02:32,277 --> 00:02:34,071
But let's keep it between us,
15
00:02:34,154 --> 00:02:37,241
because my job depends
on not getting caught.
16
00:02:37,324 --> 00:02:38,867
Totally get it.
17
00:02:38,951 --> 00:02:41,870
So, I see you have some presents...
18
00:02:41,954 --> 00:02:44,039
Oh, I do.
Um...
19
00:02:44,623 --> 00:02:47,584
Have you been naughty or nice this year?
20
00:02:47,668 --> 00:02:50,546
In my personal opinion, very nice.
21
00:02:50,629 --> 00:02:52,840
Well, let me check my list.
22
00:02:55,384 --> 00:02:56,760
Oh! Oh!
23
00:02:56,844 --> 00:02:58,887
Um, checking it twice.
24
00:03:01,056 --> 00:03:03,559
Dad!
25
00:03:03,642 --> 00:03:05,143
You know I'm nice.
26
00:03:05,602 --> 00:03:08,146
Give me a hug.
27
00:03:08,230 --> 00:03:10,190
Dad! You're home!
28
00:03:10,274 --> 00:03:11,567
Come here, my boy!
29
00:03:13,193 --> 00:03:16,154
Oh!
Welcome home, Santa.
30
00:03:17,197 --> 00:03:20,784
I see Mommy kissing Santa Claus.
31
00:03:21,368 --> 00:03:22,828
How was your night, dear?
32
00:03:22,911 --> 00:03:26,039
Jolly.
The presents were all delivered.
33
00:03:26,123 --> 00:03:27,666
Except for two.
34
00:03:38,427 --> 00:03:41,388
Oh, my garland.
This is amazing!
35
00:03:42,806 --> 00:03:44,057
What'd you get, Nick?
36
00:03:49,354 --> 00:03:50,397
Dad?
37
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:55,694
Congratulations, my boy.
It's time to start your Santa training.
38
00:03:56,820 --> 00:03:58,071
Try it on.
39
00:04:06,788 --> 00:04:08,248
I'm not sure this fits.
40
00:04:08,332 --> 00:04:11,043
It will fit you when you fit it.
41
00:04:17,049 --> 00:04:19,927
There you go.
That looks jolly, Nick.
42
00:04:20,010 --> 00:04:22,179
And red is totally your color.
43
00:04:22,721 --> 00:04:24,223
Oh!
44
00:04:24,306 --> 00:04:27,184
That must be the elves
to welcome you home!
45
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:29,895
No, no. Wait, wait, wait.
Jackets, everyone.
46
00:04:29,978 --> 00:04:33,482
Pole weather report,
snow and eight degrees.
47
00:04:34,024 --> 00:04:35,526
Forever.
48
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:37,819
That's cold.
Come on, honey.
49
00:04:39,571 --> 00:04:40,697
Thank you, Santa.
50
00:04:41,740 --> 00:04:44,535
- Merry Christmas, Polly.
- Dad?
51
00:04:44,618 --> 00:04:49,289
- Uh-huh?
- I was just wondering, Mom is Mrs. Claus,
52
00:04:49,373 --> 00:04:50,749
Polly is our nanny,
53
00:04:50,832 --> 00:04:53,210
someday Nick will be Santa.
54
00:04:53,794 --> 00:04:54,920
What do I do?
55
00:04:55,003 --> 00:04:57,506
Well, what do you want to do?
56
00:04:58,215 --> 00:04:59,925
I would like to do what you do.
57
00:05:00,634 --> 00:05:02,469
You mean, be Santa?
58
00:05:02,553 --> 00:05:04,388
No, Nick is Santa.
59
00:05:04,471 --> 00:05:06,974
But I would like to help decide
what toys to make,
60
00:05:07,057 --> 00:05:09,726
and fly the sleigh,
and do something really important.
61
00:05:11,144 --> 00:05:12,479
You do, Noelle.
62
00:05:12,563 --> 00:05:16,483
You make everyone jolly with your cards
and your Christmas cheer,
63
00:05:16,567 --> 00:05:19,903
and you know how much your brother
depends on you. So you can help him,
64
00:05:20,487 --> 00:05:23,574
and always keep his Christmas spirit up.
65
00:05:27,870 --> 00:05:30,873
Sure.
I can do that.
66
00:05:31,456 --> 00:05:32,666
I'm counting on you.
67
00:05:35,711 --> 00:05:38,255
Merry Christmas, Noelle.
68
00:05:38,338 --> 00:05:41,383
Merry Christmas, Dad.
69
00:05:43,093 --> 00:05:46,430
Now that I'm grown up, Christmas
is still my favorite time of the year.
70
00:05:47,139 --> 00:05:49,641
Although, this Christmas is a sad one.
71
00:05:50,517 --> 00:05:54,813
Dad passed away five months ago,
and I miss him every day.
72
00:05:57,232 --> 00:05:59,818
But Dad always told us
that Christmas must go on,
73
00:05:59,902 --> 00:06:01,528
especially for us Kringles,
74
00:06:01,612 --> 00:06:03,197
because for 2,000 years,
75
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:08,243
our ancestors have been the Santas that
bring joy to children all over the world.
76
00:06:08,327 --> 00:06:10,120
And now it's my big brother's turn,
77
00:06:10,204 --> 00:06:13,373
as Nick becomes the 23rd Kringle
to wear the red hat.
78
00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:21,131
He's been practicing
his sleigh flying here in the Pole.
79
00:06:21,215 --> 00:06:23,342
Am I supposed to land on the house?
80
00:06:25,594 --> 00:06:27,679
Slow down! Slow down!
No, no, no!
81
00:06:32,601 --> 00:06:34,061
We can work with that, right?
82
00:06:36,522 --> 00:06:39,650
Believe it or not,
that's actually an improvement.
83
00:06:42,402 --> 00:06:45,239
Everyone's been working super hard
to help him get ready,
84
00:06:46,615 --> 00:06:49,159
- including Mother.
- Well, dear, that was, um...
85
00:06:49,243 --> 00:06:50,619
Well, you know.
86
00:06:50,702 --> 00:06:52,955
And Santa's Helpers are singing...
87
00:06:53,038 --> 00:06:54,706
Crashing all the way
Ha, ha, ha!
88
00:06:54,790 --> 00:06:58,293
My geeky cousin, Gabe,
and his Tech Elves are doing something.
89
00:06:58,377 --> 00:06:59,378
I don't know.
90
00:06:59,461 --> 00:07:02,422
- They're really excited about it.
- Oh, my God! We did it!
91
00:07:03,131 --> 00:07:06,718
And as for me, I'm still making
my cards and spreading Christmas cheer,
92
00:07:06,802 --> 00:07:08,470
just like Dad told me to.
93
00:07:08,554 --> 00:07:11,849
I don't know what everyone
would do without me.
94
00:07:37,958 --> 00:07:41,003
Yo! Snowcone!
Ude!
95
00:07:44,673 --> 00:07:45,674
Oh!
96
00:07:45,757 --> 00:07:49,595
Yes, who's my hyperactive little reindeer?
You are! Oh! You got it.
97
00:07:49,678 --> 00:07:52,639
What do we think?
98
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,269
"Merry Christmas.
What are you getting this year?"
99
00:07:59,396 --> 00:08:03,775
I know, it totally captures the essence
of Christmas, getting the perfect present.
100
00:08:05,986 --> 00:08:07,654
- Noelle!
- Mmm.
101
00:08:09,907 --> 00:08:11,116
Morning, princess.
102
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,910
Thank you, but I don't want breakfast.
103
00:08:12,993 --> 00:08:14,411
- Yes, you do.
- I'm very busy.
104
00:08:14,494 --> 00:08:19,249
I have been out in the forest,
chopping firewood, carting it on my back,
105
00:08:19,333 --> 00:08:22,419
so that I could heat up the cottage
and make your breakfast waffles,
106
00:08:22,502 --> 00:08:26,089
while I picked up all the dirty clothes,
but none of that's really been a problem.
107
00:08:27,299 --> 00:08:29,885
I don't need you to do
any of that stuff. Honestly.
108
00:08:30,469 --> 00:08:32,930
You would starve and die
if it weren't for me.
109
00:08:33,013 --> 00:08:35,891
That's what you think.
Oh, my garland. This is delicious.
110
00:08:37,351 --> 00:08:39,551
Oh, my partridge-in-a-pear-tree underwear
needs washing.
111
00:08:39,603 --> 00:08:42,356
Oh, well, then my Christmas wish
has been granted.
112
00:08:50,531 --> 00:08:51,532
Hmm.
113
00:08:59,289 --> 00:09:01,041
Come on, Snowy. I'll race you.
114
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:02,501
Whoo!
115
00:09:19,434 --> 00:09:21,645
Puffins, scatter!
116
00:09:21,728 --> 00:09:22,855
Sorry, guys!
117
00:09:37,619 --> 00:09:40,247
Noelle! Elf Carol. Daily Carol.
118
00:09:40,330 --> 00:09:43,333
- Can I ask you a few questions?
- I'm all earmuffs. Fire away.
119
00:09:43,917 --> 00:09:46,753
We know it's been a whirlwind preparation
since your father,
120
00:09:46,837 --> 00:09:49,840
and our dearly beloved Santa Nicholas,
passed away.
121
00:09:49,923 --> 00:09:51,300
How is your brother doing?
122
00:09:51,383 --> 00:09:53,677
So jolly.
We're all very proud of him.
123
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,306
And the big question is:
Will he be ready by Christmas?
124
00:09:57,389 --> 00:09:59,516
Of course!
He's a Kringle.
125
00:10:00,142 --> 00:10:01,902
- Under. Under.
- Ah! Okay.
126
00:10:02,269 --> 00:10:05,189
Under your tongue.
All right. There you go. Ooh!
127
00:10:05,772 --> 00:10:08,734
Santa, I got you a new scarf.
128
00:10:08,817 --> 00:10:11,486
And check this out.
Three Weeks To A Jelly Belly...
129
00:10:11,570 --> 00:10:13,071
What happened?
Mother!
130
00:10:13,155 --> 00:10:14,156
Santa, I thought
131
00:10:14,239 --> 00:10:15,908
you were at sleigh practice.
132
00:10:16,325 --> 00:10:18,535
Santa tried to land again.
133
00:10:18,619 --> 00:10:20,829
Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
134
00:10:20,913 --> 00:10:23,582
He missed the roof and hit the den.
135
00:10:23,665 --> 00:10:25,959
Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
136
00:10:26,043 --> 00:10:28,212
Thank you, Santa's Helpers.
137
00:10:28,295 --> 00:10:31,507
It was a horrible example of what can
go wrong when you're using, well,
138
00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:33,050
outdated technology.
139
00:10:33,133 --> 00:10:35,385
- After Cousin Nick crashed, the...
- Oh!
140
00:10:35,469 --> 00:10:38,263
I'm sorry. Did you just refer to him
as Cousin Nick?
141
00:10:38,847 --> 00:10:41,141
Shouldn't you be
calling my big brother "Santa"?
142
00:10:41,225 --> 00:10:44,603
Oh, I'm sorry. I just thought
that since we were all family, that...
143
00:10:44,686 --> 00:10:47,481
Well, he's Santa to you,
he's Santa to everyone.
144
00:10:47,564 --> 00:10:49,066
He's even Santa to himself.
145
00:10:49,149 --> 00:10:51,652
Well, actually, I'm pretty informal
when I'm alone.
146
00:10:51,735 --> 00:10:53,070
I'm just Nick.
147
00:10:53,987 --> 00:10:56,698
Alone.
That's a jolly idea.
148
00:10:56,782 --> 00:11:00,786
Why don't we all just give Santa a moment.
149
00:11:03,455 --> 00:11:04,665
Okay.
150
00:11:05,332 --> 00:11:06,452
Excuse me, Gabe.
151
00:11:08,502 --> 00:11:12,005
This is not going well at all, dear.
152
00:11:13,090 --> 00:11:15,008
Dasher nearly broke an antler.
153
00:11:15,092 --> 00:11:19,513
And we're way, way behind schedule
at the workshop.
154
00:11:19,596 --> 00:11:22,975
You need to do your job and give
your brother some Christmas spirit,
155
00:11:23,058 --> 00:11:25,769
or else we're not gonna be ready
for Christmas.
156
00:11:31,233 --> 00:11:32,526
Oh, this is heavy.
157
00:11:33,151 --> 00:11:35,696
The Book of Santa.
I've read it. I've memorized it.
158
00:11:35,779 --> 00:11:38,240
I've listened to it on tape.
I just don't get it.
159
00:11:38,323 --> 00:11:41,994
Okay. Well, we are gonna read it together
and we're gonna figure this out.
160
00:11:42,536 --> 00:11:43,745
Let's start at the top.
161
00:11:43,829 --> 00:11:46,999
The top is chimney access,
that's funny.
162
00:11:47,082 --> 00:11:51,169
"The chimney will expand when you tap
three times with the magical candy cane"
163
00:11:51,253 --> 00:11:53,672
"and sing the first line
of We Wish You A Merry Christmas,"
164
00:11:53,755 --> 00:11:55,340
"assuming that you stay in key."
165
00:11:55,424 --> 00:11:56,800
- Hold your reindeer.
- Yeah.
166
00:11:56,884 --> 00:12:01,638
How am I supposed to know which is
the right present to give each child?
167
00:12:01,722 --> 00:12:04,016
If I haven't determined
who's naughty or nice,
168
00:12:04,099 --> 00:12:05,642
how can I pick their present?
169
00:12:06,476 --> 00:12:08,437
You see, it's kind of a vicious circle.
170
00:12:09,897 --> 00:12:10,898
Okay.
171
00:12:10,981 --> 00:12:14,526
This is the list. It's filled with names.
Some are nice and some are naughty.
172
00:12:14,610 --> 00:12:16,528
Some of the names
haven't been filled in yet,
173
00:12:16,612 --> 00:12:18,488
and that's gonna be your job, okay?
174
00:12:18,572 --> 00:12:21,116
Dad said, "It's not about
what the kid looks like."
175
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,993
"It's what's on the inside
that's important."
176
00:12:23,076 --> 00:12:24,828
"You need to connect with their heart."
177
00:12:25,412 --> 00:12:28,332
Oh, I love that.
How's that done?
178
00:12:28,415 --> 00:12:30,834
I have no idea.
Just focus really hard, I guess?
179
00:12:31,418 --> 00:12:32,794
Okay.
180
00:12:32,878 --> 00:12:35,297
Uh... Nice.
181
00:12:35,881 --> 00:12:38,383
She cheated on every math test
she ever took.
182
00:12:40,260 --> 00:12:43,180
That's a... stocking full of coal
if ever I've seen one.
183
00:12:43,263 --> 00:12:45,140
Yeah.
He saved a kitten from a tree,
184
00:12:45,224 --> 00:12:47,851
after visiting his grandmother
in the nursing home.
185
00:12:47,935 --> 00:12:49,228
So, nice?
186
00:12:49,811 --> 00:12:53,106
Okay, we need to figure out what people
want for Christmas. Here we go.
187
00:12:55,067 --> 00:12:57,236
- Football tickets.
- IPad.
188
00:12:57,903 --> 00:12:59,905
Really think about this next one.
Take your time.
189
00:13:01,573 --> 00:13:03,575
She looks like
she likes playing guitar,
190
00:13:04,159 --> 00:13:06,203
and that looks like,
uh, an old guitar.
191
00:13:06,286 --> 00:13:07,788
So, I'm gonna say, um...
192
00:13:11,166 --> 00:13:13,377
- New guitar?
- IPad.
193
00:13:15,045 --> 00:13:16,213
You can do this.
194
00:13:16,296 --> 00:13:18,006
- IPad?
- Polly!
195
00:13:18,090 --> 00:13:20,467
- Okay, let's say I'm in Germany.
- Yeah.
196
00:13:20,551 --> 00:13:23,554
A child wakes up, wants to talk to me,
I don't speak their language.
197
00:13:23,637 --> 00:13:26,598
Yeah, but, um,
Santa understands all languages.
198
00:13:26,682 --> 00:13:29,768
And so do you.
I saw you speaking Arabic to Elf Tippy.
199
00:13:29,852 --> 00:13:31,895
Yeah, but that's because Gabe showed me
200
00:13:31,979 --> 00:13:34,439
how to use this thing
called Google Translate.
201
00:13:37,109 --> 00:13:40,362
Okay, Nick, I know
you're scared of the reindeer,
202
00:13:40,445 --> 00:13:43,824
but you need to Santa up.
You've gotta show them who's boss.
203
00:13:43,907 --> 00:13:46,952
"Grip the reins with both hands
while firmly saying 'On Dasher!'"
204
00:13:51,540 --> 00:13:53,625
Grip, command.
205
00:13:53,709 --> 00:13:55,544
Can't treat them like your cuddly pets.
206
00:13:55,627 --> 00:13:57,462
You're almost in.
Look how good you're doing!
207
00:13:57,546 --> 00:13:58,714
I don't wanna do this.
No!
208
00:13:58,797 --> 00:14:00,716
- This is great! Let it happen!
- No!
209
00:14:00,799 --> 00:14:04,011
No!
210
00:14:04,094 --> 00:14:06,346
Great job, buddy.
That looked great.
211
00:14:06,430 --> 00:14:08,015
- You okay?
- No!
212
00:14:10,767 --> 00:14:12,978
Ugh.
213
00:14:16,231 --> 00:14:17,524
All right.
214
00:14:17,608 --> 00:14:21,153
- Two double hot chocolates.
- Great.
215
00:14:21,236 --> 00:14:23,739
One with extra whipped cream.
216
00:14:26,033 --> 00:14:28,410
And... peppermint.
217
00:14:29,912 --> 00:14:32,581
Thank garland for hot chocolate
and peppermint.
218
00:14:33,290 --> 00:14:34,750
Mmm.
219
00:14:35,584 --> 00:14:38,670
I feel like I've been shivering
my whole life, you know?
220
00:14:39,379 --> 00:14:43,133
Sometimes, I... I dream about getting out
and finding some place warm,
221
00:14:43,217 --> 00:14:46,470
where I can stretch and relax
and just breathe, you know?
222
00:14:46,553 --> 00:14:48,263
- Then you should.
- How?
223
00:14:48,847 --> 00:14:52,434
I'm Santa. I don't get a vacation.
I don't even get Christmas off.
224
00:14:52,518 --> 00:14:55,020
You can't be Santa
if you're having a nervous breakdown.
225
00:14:55,103 --> 00:14:57,940
Nobody wants you sliding into
their fireplace crying and weeping.
226
00:14:58,023 --> 00:14:59,191
Nothing merry about that.
227
00:14:59,274 --> 00:15:01,401
Can't go down chimneys.
I'm claustrophobic.
228
00:15:01,944 --> 00:15:04,530
You remember those magazines
Dad used to bring me on Christmas?
229
00:15:04,613 --> 00:15:07,407
Yeah, like People? That's how I found out
Jennifer Aniston's nice.
230
00:15:07,491 --> 00:15:10,661
Yeah.
Travel And Leisure had those sections
231
00:15:10,744 --> 00:15:12,371
about the perfect Christmas getaway.
232
00:15:12,454 --> 00:15:14,998
Warm weather, swimming pools,
sun-kissed mountains.
233
00:15:15,624 --> 00:15:20,045
You need to look in that magazine,
pick a place, get away for the weekend.
234
00:15:20,671 --> 00:15:22,756
Bring me back some issues
while you're down there.
235
00:15:31,515 --> 00:15:33,642
Ah! Cousin Gabe.
236
00:15:34,852 --> 00:15:35,853
Hello.
237
00:15:36,436 --> 00:15:39,523
I wanted to install GPS
and USB-C portals on the sleigh,
238
00:15:39,606 --> 00:15:43,610
and was wondering if you knew
where Cousin... Santa, you know, was.
239
00:15:43,694 --> 00:15:47,364
I think he probably took the sleigh
for a practice flight.
240
00:15:47,906 --> 00:15:51,201
Well, the sleigh came back,
and all the reindeer are here,
241
00:15:51,743 --> 00:15:53,078
but there's no Santa.
242
00:15:55,205 --> 00:15:59,209
Well, it's not like him to just leave.
243
00:15:59,293 --> 00:16:01,503
What's with all these magazines?
244
00:16:01,587 --> 00:16:06,258
"InStyle, Travel and Leisure,
Martha Stewart's Living."
245
00:16:08,635 --> 00:16:11,138
Um, I was helping Santa train,
246
00:16:11,221 --> 00:16:14,433
and he seemed a little overwhelmed.
So I mentioned, almost as a joke...
247
00:16:14,516 --> 00:16:16,101
Ho, ho, ho.
248
00:16:16,185 --> 00:16:18,604
That he should go somewhere
and relax for the weekend.
249
00:16:19,688 --> 00:16:23,025
And maybe bring back some new magazines.
That's probably what that's about.
250
00:16:23,108 --> 00:16:24,943
But they're for all of us to enjoy.
251
00:16:25,652 --> 00:16:26,737
It's not just for me.
252
00:16:29,198 --> 00:16:31,491
But you guys seem mad.
253
00:16:31,575 --> 00:16:34,369
I hope he's okay!
254
00:16:35,162 --> 00:16:36,163
Where is he?
255
00:16:38,874 --> 00:16:40,435
When was the last time you saw him?
256
00:16:40,459 --> 00:16:41,779
Seven days and counting.
257
00:16:43,462 --> 00:16:44,546
It's Noelle's fault.
258
00:16:44,630 --> 00:16:46,310
What's gonna happen with Christmas?
259
00:16:46,381 --> 00:16:48,568
- I hope it's okay.
- What happened to him?
260
00:16:48,592 --> 00:16:50,344
This never happened before.
261
00:16:50,427 --> 00:16:52,346
- Quiet.
- Where is he?
262
00:16:53,764 --> 00:16:56,225
Quiet!
263
00:16:57,518 --> 00:16:59,144
Silent night.
264
00:17:04,274 --> 00:17:07,027
For the first time in 2,000 years,
265
00:17:08,403 --> 00:17:10,239
a Santa has disappeared.
266
00:17:10,322 --> 00:17:12,157
At the urging of his sister, Noelle.
267
00:17:12,241 --> 00:17:13,992
I just said he should take
the weekend off.
268
00:17:14,076 --> 00:17:16,578
You put Christmas in jeopardy, young lady.
269
00:17:16,662 --> 00:17:18,830
- She did.
- That's so naughty.
270
00:17:19,414 --> 00:17:21,375
Rest ye, merry gentlemen.
271
00:17:21,458 --> 00:17:26,630
As Christmas is just six days away,
we must have a new Santa.
272
00:17:26,713 --> 00:17:29,466
Wait. What about a rescue mission?
273
00:17:29,550 --> 00:17:32,845
My brother could be hurt.
He might've fallen out of the sleigh.
274
00:17:32,928 --> 00:17:34,930
No one but Santa has ever left the Pole.
275
00:17:35,013 --> 00:17:37,140
And we have no idea where Santa is.
276
00:17:37,224 --> 00:17:40,394
We could lose the sleigh or the reindeer.
Then there'd be no Christmas.
277
00:17:40,477 --> 00:17:44,147
- No Christmas?
- A rescue attempt is far too dangerous.
278
00:17:45,232 --> 00:17:48,944
Leaving me no choice but to call upon...
279
00:17:50,070 --> 00:17:51,238
Gabriel Kringle.
280
00:17:51,321 --> 00:17:53,156
- Gabriel?
- Me?
281
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,992
Please, approach the council.
282
00:17:55,742 --> 00:17:59,079
But I'm in the Tech department.
And loving it.
283
00:17:59,162 --> 00:18:00,622
Nevertheless, you must approach
284
00:18:00,706 --> 00:18:03,417
because we must select
the next adult male Kringle
285
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:05,252
as specified by the Christmas covenant.
286
00:18:05,335 --> 00:18:07,880
That's not exactly what it says...
287
00:18:07,963 --> 00:18:09,214
They're elder elves.
288
00:18:09,298 --> 00:18:11,717
- They know what they're talking about.
- Please.
289
00:18:23,812 --> 00:18:24,813
Gabe.
290
00:18:25,939 --> 00:18:31,820
By order of the council,
the pom-pom now rests upon your head.
291
00:18:32,779 --> 00:18:34,448
- Really?
- Seriously?
292
00:18:34,531 --> 00:18:36,325
I don't know about this guy.
293
00:18:49,505 --> 00:18:51,882
Noelle, why did you
tell your brother to leave?
294
00:18:51,965 --> 00:18:53,592
I thought he would come back.
295
00:18:53,675 --> 00:18:56,261
You didn't think about
how he listens to you,
296
00:18:56,345 --> 00:19:01,308
and how your advice affected Christmas
and all of the children in the world.
297
00:19:01,391 --> 00:19:03,227
I just said, "Take the weekend."
298
00:19:03,310 --> 00:19:05,979
- She had one job.
- To look after her brother.
299
00:19:06,063 --> 00:19:09,066
What a princess.
300
00:19:11,318 --> 00:19:12,945
I just said, go for the weekend.
301
00:19:30,963 --> 00:19:33,966
Oh, Serge, hot chocolate,
double whip cream, and peppermint,
302
00:19:34,049 --> 00:19:35,217
in honor of my brother?
303
00:19:35,884 --> 00:19:40,097
We're all booked up.
Maybe try back in... July.
304
00:19:41,390 --> 00:19:43,267
Oh, okay.
305
00:19:47,312 --> 00:19:50,816
It can't possibly be that much.
What about my Kringle discount?
306
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,403
That's only for Santa's immediate family,
not cousins.
307
00:20:16,884 --> 00:20:18,427
I want it shut.
308
00:20:18,510 --> 00:20:22,973
It's been shut, which is why
this room smells like old stockings.
309
00:20:23,473 --> 00:20:24,725
Uh...
310
00:20:25,309 --> 00:20:30,439
Mother's furious, and everybody hates me
because I've ruined Christmas.
311
00:20:30,522 --> 00:20:32,566
And I don't know if my brother's okay.
312
00:20:33,358 --> 00:20:34,610
What do you want from me?
313
00:20:35,194 --> 00:20:37,821
Stockings, sheets,
and pillow cases.
314
00:20:37,905 --> 00:20:39,239
Ho, ho... Ow!
315
00:20:40,532 --> 00:20:43,035
Princess, for once in your life,
316
00:20:43,619 --> 00:20:45,412
try cleaning up your own mess.
317
00:20:45,495 --> 00:20:46,955
How do you suggest I do that?
318
00:20:49,791 --> 00:20:53,128
"Take a journey to a better you."
319
00:20:53,921 --> 00:20:56,465
Ugh.
Glitter all over the floor.
320
00:20:56,548 --> 00:20:58,842
And stop eating waffles in bed.
321
00:21:10,479 --> 00:21:12,189
Hot chocolate and peppermint.
322
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,650
Nick.
323
00:21:17,903 --> 00:21:21,114
Maui and San Juan.
What's between Maui and San Juan?
324
00:21:26,411 --> 00:21:27,663
"Phoenix."
325
00:21:29,498 --> 00:21:30,874
Phoenix, Arizona.
326
00:21:49,726 --> 00:21:52,938
Princess, do you mind telling me
what you're doing?
327
00:21:53,772 --> 00:21:56,483
I'm going to get my brother,
and you're coming with me.
328
00:21:57,860 --> 00:21:59,736
No, I'm not.
329
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,533
Your mother will not be jolly with this,
and it is my job to keep you safe.
330
00:22:04,616 --> 00:22:06,326
I left her a card explaining everything,
331
00:22:06,410 --> 00:22:09,329
and you can't keep me safe
if you're here and I'm in Phoenix.
332
00:22:09,413 --> 00:22:12,124
Phoenix?
That sounds horrible.
333
00:22:15,544 --> 00:22:17,045
Oh, hey, little guy.
334
00:22:17,129 --> 00:22:18,964
Uh, I've gotta go away.
335
00:22:21,466 --> 00:22:24,052
I know you wanna be on the team,
you're just not ready yet.
336
00:22:24,136 --> 00:22:25,637
So keep practicing, okay?
337
00:22:28,265 --> 00:22:30,100
Okay.
338
00:22:33,312 --> 00:22:35,647
Yes, I know.
I'm going to get him.
339
00:22:36,398 --> 00:22:38,859
- Princess, get out of here.
- No.
340
00:22:38,942 --> 00:22:41,570
Listen, you've never been
out of the North Pole.
341
00:22:41,653 --> 00:22:44,239
- Polly.
- You do not know how to fly this sleigh.
342
00:22:44,323 --> 00:22:46,158
Fine. Then it'll all be on Dasher.
343
00:23:12,976 --> 00:23:14,269
Turn this thing around.
344
00:23:14,353 --> 00:23:17,856
No. Not going back without my brother.
And it's your job to help me.
345
00:23:20,609 --> 00:23:22,486
Destination, Phoenix, Arizona.
346
00:24:31,972 --> 00:24:35,100
I guess this is their village.
Where is everybody?
347
00:24:37,352 --> 00:24:40,189
- What do you think you doin'?
- Hi. I'm Noelle.
348
00:24:40,272 --> 00:24:41,690
Stay right where you are.
349
00:24:42,274 --> 00:24:44,109
We are looking for Santa Claus.
350
00:24:45,485 --> 00:24:47,112
You've got presents.
351
00:24:47,654 --> 00:24:49,531
Merry Christmas.
352
00:24:49,615 --> 00:24:50,884
Feliz Navidad!
353
00:24:50,908 --> 00:24:56,121
How are you planning on having Christmas
without the reindeer and the sleigh?
354
00:24:56,205 --> 00:24:58,081
- Noelle took the reindeer?
- Mmm-hmm.
355
00:24:58,165 --> 00:24:59,917
- And the sleigh?
- Mmm-hmm.
356
00:25:00,834 --> 00:25:01,835
Huh...
357
00:25:02,419 --> 00:25:04,004
That's so interesting.
358
00:25:04,588 --> 00:25:08,550
What if not having the sleigh
or the reindeer is a blessing in disguise?
359
00:25:08,634 --> 00:25:09,718
I don't think so.
360
00:25:09,801 --> 00:25:13,931
This could be the perfect time
to start an online delivery platform.
361
00:25:14,014 --> 00:25:16,975
- I don't think so.
- What if the reindeer have Lyme disease?
362
00:25:17,059 --> 00:25:19,228
What if an asteroid
crashes into the sleigh?
363
00:25:19,311 --> 00:25:21,605
These are real concerns,
statistically speaking,
364
00:25:21,688 --> 00:25:23,440
and I think our customers deserve better.
365
00:25:23,524 --> 00:25:26,652
We don't have customers.
366
00:25:26,735 --> 00:25:33,158
We have children who need the magic
of a Santa coming down the chimney
367
00:25:33,242 --> 00:25:38,539
and arranging each present
with love and care under the tree.
368
00:25:39,122 --> 00:25:40,922
Okay, well, now you sound
like a crazy person.
369
00:25:41,416 --> 00:25:47,172
Gabe, aren't you even worried about
your cousins, Nick and Noelle, and Polly?
370
00:25:47,256 --> 00:25:50,342
Who knows what terrible things
have happened to them?
371
00:25:59,268 --> 00:26:03,188
Uh, hi, thank you, yes, I...
My name is Helen Rojas,
372
00:26:03,272 --> 00:26:05,232
I'm the manager
of the Desert Ridge Marketplace.
373
00:26:05,315 --> 00:26:06,900
- Oh, it's nice to meet you.
- Yes.
374
00:26:06,984 --> 00:26:10,779
Uh, you cannot perform or solicit here
on these grounds without a permit.
375
00:26:10,863 --> 00:26:13,365
Can you stop, please? Or I will have to
have you arrested.
376
00:26:13,448 --> 00:26:14,575
Can you... This is my desk.
377
00:26:14,658 --> 00:26:16,827
- Oh, I'm so sorry.
- Thank you, thank you.
378
00:26:16,910 --> 00:26:17,911
- Here, I have a...
- Oh!
379
00:26:17,995 --> 00:26:19,496
Yes, thank you.
Mmm-hmm.
380
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,624
Okay, now, uh...
381
00:26:22,708 --> 00:26:24,459
Where were we? Um, arrested.
382
00:26:24,543 --> 00:26:27,462
Okay, that sounds bad, but can you
just tell me, have you seen this man?
383
00:26:28,380 --> 00:26:29,423
- Santa?
- Yeah.
384
00:26:29,506 --> 00:26:31,592
He looks nice and polite,
so I haven't dated him.
385
00:26:31,675 --> 00:26:32,676
Listen, miss,
386
00:26:32,759 --> 00:26:36,430
this isn't the first time someone's tried
this kind of promotional stunt.
387
00:26:36,513 --> 00:26:39,391
About two months ago, we had a guy
with a sleigh and a reindeer
388
00:26:39,474 --> 00:26:42,019
- show up outside of Chase Field...
- That's him!
389
00:26:42,102 --> 00:26:44,021
That's who I'm looking for.
Where did he go?
390
00:26:44,104 --> 00:26:45,105
The North Pole.
391
00:26:45,189 --> 00:26:48,233
Now, vacate the premises
or I'll have to call the police...
392
00:26:48,317 --> 00:26:49,735
- Hey, Helen.
- Oh, yes.
393
00:26:49,818 --> 00:26:52,446
Was it your idea to bring that sleigh
and reindeer in here?
394
00:26:52,529 --> 00:26:54,531
Uh, yes, Dan.
I'm dealing with it...
395
00:26:54,615 --> 00:26:57,743
People are rushing into my Petco
trying to find reindeer food.
396
00:26:57,826 --> 00:27:00,037
We don't have any,
so I just relabeled the birdseed.
397
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:01,622
They love birdseed.
398
00:27:01,705 --> 00:27:03,790
This is going to be
our best Christmas yet.
399
00:27:03,874 --> 00:27:05,167
You'll probably get a raise.
400
00:27:05,250 --> 00:27:07,336
You might finally get to
take that trip to Hawaii.
401
00:27:08,086 --> 00:27:10,547
Gosh, I'd love to go myself one day.
402
00:27:15,802 --> 00:27:17,221
I've never tried this before,
403
00:27:17,304 --> 00:27:19,264
so I don't know
if I'm gonna do it right, but...
404
00:27:19,348 --> 00:27:21,225
Ooh.
405
00:27:21,308 --> 00:27:24,102
Can you not do that, please?
Thank you.
406
00:27:24,186 --> 00:27:25,604
Did I do it wrong?
407
00:27:25,687 --> 00:27:29,274
This release form protects
Desert Ridge Marketplace
408
00:27:29,358 --> 00:27:32,611
from any liabilities
as a result of your presence.
409
00:27:35,322 --> 00:27:36,698
Thank you.
410
00:27:36,782 --> 00:27:39,535
Oh, Helen, which way is Phoenix?
411
00:27:41,078 --> 00:27:43,455
Okay.
Let's go find my brother.
412
00:27:43,539 --> 00:27:44,665
Hold on.
413
00:27:45,290 --> 00:27:48,460
Someone has to stay
and keep an eye on Dasher and company.
414
00:27:48,544 --> 00:27:52,214
They're used to a strict regimen
of North Pole hay and training.
415
00:27:52,297 --> 00:27:55,759
So, who knows what will happen
when they're faced with temptation?
416
00:27:56,426 --> 00:27:59,054
So, you want me to go out there alone?
417
00:27:59,137 --> 00:28:02,850
Noelle, you go out there and you be merry,
418
00:28:03,517 --> 00:28:08,105
and you don't tell anybody who you are
or where you came from.
419
00:28:08,647 --> 00:28:11,567
And always be ready to run away.
420
00:28:33,630 --> 00:28:36,175
- I hate you.
- No! I am done talking with you about...
421
00:28:36,258 --> 00:28:40,429
Every frickin' time.
I'm gonna lose it.
422
00:28:41,513 --> 00:28:42,514
Oh!
423
00:28:43,348 --> 00:28:44,516
Thank you.
424
00:28:45,267 --> 00:28:47,102
Ah!
Mmm!
425
00:28:50,606 --> 00:28:52,357
There's something wrong with that.
426
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,861
Don't drink that.
That's awful.
427
00:29:12,461 --> 00:29:13,462
Nick?
428
00:29:14,755 --> 00:29:16,256
Nick.
429
00:29:21,178 --> 00:29:24,306
Fifty percent off everything.
More you buy, the merrier you are.
430
00:29:24,389 --> 00:29:27,309
Sir, it's a privilege to wear that suit.
431
00:29:27,893 --> 00:29:28,977
Put some pants on.
432
00:29:32,439 --> 00:29:33,857
So naughty.
433
00:29:38,862 --> 00:29:40,531
Have you seen this man?
434
00:29:40,614 --> 00:29:41,907
Mmm-mmm.
435
00:29:42,491 --> 00:29:43,867
Definitely not one of ours.
436
00:29:44,451 --> 00:29:46,453
Cheap suit,
no one's gonna believe that.
437
00:29:54,503 --> 00:29:56,421
Sorry I'm late, dude.
Forgot my pants.
438
00:30:11,645 --> 00:30:15,566
You know, Mr. Ortega, I think it's better
you know the truth about your brother
439
00:30:15,649 --> 00:30:18,277
stealing all of your money
than to live in a fantasy.
440
00:30:19,236 --> 00:30:20,654
I disagree.
441
00:30:25,951 --> 00:30:26,994
Um...
442
00:30:27,077 --> 00:30:30,205
Merry Christmas.
Noelle Kringle. Jake?
443
00:30:30,289 --> 00:30:31,874
Saw your name on the sign.
444
00:30:31,957 --> 00:30:33,959
Why are you so red?
445
00:30:34,543 --> 00:30:37,629
And why are you wearing a winter hat
and mittens in Phoenix?
446
00:30:37,713 --> 00:30:39,006
Because it's an ensemble.
447
00:30:39,756 --> 00:30:41,758
But I'm here
'cause I'm looking for my brother.
448
00:30:41,842 --> 00:30:43,969
I'm worried something
might have happened to him.
449
00:30:44,052 --> 00:30:45,137
Like what?
450
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,851
Well, my father ran a business,
451
00:30:50,934 --> 00:30:53,353
and after he passed,
my brother was supposed to take over,
452
00:30:53,437 --> 00:30:54,897
but he left and came to Phoenix,
453
00:30:54,980 --> 00:30:58,483
'cause he said he needed to breathe
and stretch and relax.
454
00:30:58,567 --> 00:31:00,527
But we have to find him because I know,
455
00:31:01,528 --> 00:31:03,655
in his heart, he wants to
run the family business.
456
00:31:03,739 --> 00:31:06,617
I find most people, they don't know
what's in their own hearts.
457
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:07,910
Let alone anyone else's.
458
00:31:07,993 --> 00:31:11,079
That's if they even have a heart
in the first place.
459
00:31:11,580 --> 00:31:12,581
Oh!
460
00:31:12,664 --> 00:31:14,625
That's pretty stocking half empty.
461
00:31:14,708 --> 00:31:16,543
Yeah, well,
I'm a private detective.
462
00:31:16,627 --> 00:31:18,420
You get "stocking half empty"
pretty quick.
463
00:31:18,504 --> 00:31:23,008
- Do you have a picture of this brother?
- Yes. His name is Nick Kringle.
464
00:31:23,091 --> 00:31:24,801
- Nick Kringle?
- Mmm-hmm.
465
00:31:25,719 --> 00:31:27,513
- You're Noelle Kringle?
- That's me.
466
00:31:28,096 --> 00:31:30,974
- You're pretty deep into Christmas.
- Best day of the year, right?
467
00:31:31,058 --> 00:31:33,727
Yeah, well, it's definitely
a day of the year.
468
00:31:33,810 --> 00:31:36,939
I'm on the way out, but I'll see
what I can do for $150 a day.
469
00:31:37,606 --> 00:31:40,817
Money, yes. You cannot put a price
on what this is worth to me.
470
00:31:42,319 --> 00:31:43,399
- Up front.
- Okay.
471
00:31:49,785 --> 00:31:51,119
"In Santa We Trust"?
472
00:31:51,203 --> 00:31:54,831
That's real gold on the outside.
And chocolate in the middle.
473
00:31:54,915 --> 00:31:58,335
Look, lady, um,
with all due respect...
474
00:31:59,378 --> 00:32:01,129
Get some sunblock fast.
475
00:32:04,716 --> 00:32:05,968
Uh...
476
00:32:06,051 --> 00:32:09,179
- Jake, you don't understand, see...
- My phone died. Can I borrow yours?
477
00:32:09,263 --> 00:32:10,639
I don't have a phone.
478
00:32:10,722 --> 00:32:13,517
Oh, of course, probably hard to dial
with mittens on.
479
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,436
Only get two days with him before
Christmas, and now I'm late.
480
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:17,938
- With who?
- My son, my boy,
481
00:32:18,021 --> 00:32:19,898
I'm supposed to take him
to a basketball game
482
00:32:19,982 --> 00:32:21,775
and now my ex-wife's...
483
00:32:21,859 --> 00:32:24,444
Let's find you a phone.
I'm sure somebody will let us...
484
00:32:24,528 --> 00:32:26,947
No, people don't just let people
borrow phones.
485
00:32:27,030 --> 00:32:28,824
- It doesn't work that way.
- It's Christmas.
486
00:32:28,907 --> 00:32:30,409
Oh, I forgot it's Christmas.
487
00:32:30,492 --> 00:32:33,662
Okay, excuse me, ma'am,
may I please borrow your phone?
488
00:32:33,745 --> 00:32:35,038
Like I want your germs.
489
00:32:35,956 --> 00:32:37,416
- Okay.
- See what I mean?
490
00:32:37,499 --> 00:32:39,918
Excuse me, sir,
may I please borrow your...
491
00:32:40,002 --> 00:32:41,003
Um...
492
00:32:41,420 --> 00:32:43,630
See what I mean?
Kringle?
493
00:32:45,340 --> 00:32:46,341
Kringle?
494
00:32:49,261 --> 00:32:50,262
Kringle?
495
00:32:54,558 --> 00:32:55,559
Ask him.
496
00:32:56,185 --> 00:32:58,312
- Who?
- That man, he's nice.
497
00:32:58,395 --> 00:32:59,855
- He's nice?
- Yeah.
498
00:32:59,938 --> 00:33:00,939
How do you know?
499
00:33:01,940 --> 00:33:03,567
I don't know,
I just know.
500
00:33:04,443 --> 00:33:05,444
Excuse me.
501
00:33:07,529 --> 00:33:09,239
- Sir, hi.
- Hi.
502
00:33:09,323 --> 00:33:11,742
My friend has an important call
to make, his phone died.
503
00:33:11,825 --> 00:33:13,619
Is there any way he could borrow yours?
504
00:33:14,203 --> 00:33:15,871
Sure, no problem.
505
00:33:16,872 --> 00:33:17,998
Oh.
506
00:33:19,124 --> 00:33:20,667
- Oh, thanks.
- It's okay.
507
00:33:20,751 --> 00:33:22,336
- Thanks a lot.
- No problem.
508
00:33:24,838 --> 00:33:27,466
Noelle Kringle. I hope you get
what you want for Christmas.
509
00:33:27,549 --> 00:33:30,385
- Matt Bautista. I'm actually a Buddhist.
- Oh, jolly!
510
00:33:30,469 --> 00:33:32,554
My dad always said,
"Christmas is like sushi,"
511
00:33:32,638 --> 00:33:34,890
"the Japanese invented it,
but now everybody loves it."
512
00:33:35,724 --> 00:33:37,059
Well, I do love sushi.
513
00:33:38,810 --> 00:33:40,395
Thank you,
I really appreciate that.
514
00:33:40,479 --> 00:33:42,689
My pleasure.
You guys have a great day.
515
00:33:42,773 --> 00:33:44,107
- Bye, Matt.
- Bye.
516
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,237
Thank you, Kringle.
Uh, I gotta run.
517
00:33:54,326 --> 00:33:56,203
Give me that picture of your brother.
518
00:33:57,538 --> 00:34:01,041
Come by the office tomorrow at 9:00.
Bring non-edible money.
519
00:34:01,124 --> 00:34:03,293
Do they make that?
I'm kidding. I know they do.
520
00:34:03,377 --> 00:34:05,796
And I'll find some.
I will bring some.
521
00:34:05,879 --> 00:34:08,298
Thank you for helping me,
you're being so nice.
522
00:34:08,924 --> 00:34:10,384
It's a big day for nice.
523
00:34:11,426 --> 00:34:13,720
Yeah.
Big day for nice.
524
00:34:16,682 --> 00:34:20,602
Merry Christmas,
Elf-folk, it's Santa. Santa Gabe.
525
00:34:21,311 --> 00:34:24,273
As you may know, my cousin Nick,
the ex-Santa,
526
00:34:24,356 --> 00:34:27,734
never completed the Nice or Naughty list,
but that's jolly.
527
00:34:27,818 --> 00:34:29,862
Because it allowed us to develop...
528
00:34:31,363 --> 00:34:35,617
Forensic Algorithm for Lateral Analysis
of Latent Altruism.
529
00:34:35,701 --> 00:34:37,119
It's a digitized metric
530
00:34:37,202 --> 00:34:40,372
which allows us to determine
a child's Nice or Naughty quotient.
531
00:34:40,455 --> 00:34:41,582
For instance...
532
00:34:41,665 --> 00:34:43,208
Holy night.
533
00:34:43,292 --> 00:34:45,460
This is Kali from Brooklyn.
534
00:34:45,544 --> 00:34:47,546
Using his internet activity,
school records,
535
00:34:47,629 --> 00:34:49,089
and satellite surveillance,
536
00:34:49,173 --> 00:34:53,260
FALALA was able to ascertain that
he is Nice. And he wants a PlayStation.
537
00:34:54,136 --> 00:34:57,681
We're now standardizing
all packages in green, red,
538
00:34:57,764 --> 00:35:00,517
or the best of both, swirl.
539
00:35:21,538 --> 00:35:24,583
- Oh, what's this?
- Uh, guacamole?
540
00:35:24,666 --> 00:35:27,461
- Guaca-what? Gua...
- Guacamole?
541
00:35:27,544 --> 00:35:29,463
Guacamole? What is it made from?
542
00:35:30,547 --> 00:35:31,757
Hi, Helen.
543
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,092
Can I have $150 a day, please?
544
00:35:34,676 --> 00:35:37,346
Hey, Helen.
We're all out of bird food.
545
00:35:37,429 --> 00:35:40,098
They seem to
really be enjoying the churros.
546
00:35:40,182 --> 00:35:42,893
Uh, you could buy some churros,
cut them into little pieces
547
00:35:42,976 --> 00:35:45,395
and sell them as reindeer treats,
like you said, Helen?
548
00:35:45,479 --> 00:35:48,941
- Um, yeah.
- Yeah. Yeah, well...
549
00:35:49,024 --> 00:35:51,818
Don't keep these little nuggets
of brilliance all to yourself.
550
00:35:51,902 --> 00:35:53,946
How many great ideas
have you been sitting on?
551
00:35:55,405 --> 00:35:56,615
Three.
552
00:35:56,698 --> 00:36:00,118
Let's get together. I'd love to hear
anything else you have to say.
553
00:36:00,702 --> 00:36:02,996
You're full of surprises.
Mmm.
554
00:36:04,831 --> 00:36:06,542
Oh.
555
00:36:06,625 --> 00:36:07,626
Mmm-hmm.
556
00:36:07,709 --> 00:36:09,002
- You're the best.
- Oh, yeah.
557
00:36:11,964 --> 00:36:13,882
- Helen.
- Yes.
558
00:36:15,342 --> 00:36:16,593
I wouldn't... Um...
559
00:36:16,677 --> 00:36:20,681
I can't give you $150 in cash.
560
00:36:20,764 --> 00:36:23,934
But I can give you $150
in retail merchandise.
561
00:36:24,017 --> 00:36:27,646
What would you like?
Bath Bar, Cinnabon, Chrysler Pacifica?
562
00:36:27,729 --> 00:36:30,732
I don't know what those things are,
but I will take all of them.
563
00:36:30,816 --> 00:36:32,401
Also, can we stay here tonight?
564
00:36:38,824 --> 00:36:41,159
Come on.
It's a Secret Santa party.
565
00:37:04,725 --> 00:37:05,726
Huh.
566
00:37:06,435 --> 00:37:08,061
Matt Bautista is nice.
567
00:37:10,814 --> 00:37:13,025
Santa, we're still not clear
568
00:37:13,108 --> 00:37:18,197
how you plan to deliver billions
of presents with no sleigh or reindeer.
569
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,326
First of all, there aren't actually
billions of presents, Elder Elf Abe.
570
00:37:22,409 --> 00:37:24,328
Our research indicates
571
00:37:24,411 --> 00:37:30,375
that there are only 2,837 nice children
in the world.
572
00:37:31,710 --> 00:37:32,878
What?
573
00:37:32,961 --> 00:37:35,547
Gabe, how is that possible?
574
00:37:35,631 --> 00:37:38,258
Nearly every child fibbed,
575
00:37:39,134 --> 00:37:41,053
refused to eat their vegetables,
576
00:37:41,136 --> 00:37:45,057
or failed to practice
proper dental hygiene.
577
00:37:45,140 --> 00:37:49,853
Joy to the world Except for you
578
00:37:49,937 --> 00:37:54,525
'Cause you forgot to floss.
579
00:37:54,608 --> 00:37:58,946
Oh, no, you can't measure
a child like that.
580
00:37:59,029 --> 00:38:01,448
Everyone makes mistakes.
581
00:38:01,532 --> 00:38:07,037
Which is why each naughty child
will be receiving an evaluation notice
582
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:08,705
explaining the decision
583
00:38:08,789 --> 00:38:11,291
and encouraging them
to do better next year.
584
00:38:11,375 --> 00:38:12,709
No!
585
00:38:16,171 --> 00:38:17,840
Kringle, come in.
586
00:38:17,923 --> 00:38:19,883
Was just lookin' at your case.
587
00:38:19,967 --> 00:38:20,968
Oh.
588
00:38:27,391 --> 00:38:29,226
Oh, hi!
Who are you?
589
00:38:29,309 --> 00:38:31,436
Oh, this is my son.
Alex, this is Noelle.
590
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:32,646
- Hi.
- Hi!
591
00:38:32,729 --> 00:38:34,565
Oh, I totally see the resemblance.
592
00:38:34,648 --> 00:38:37,901
I couldn't find any money,
but I did bring all this stuff.
593
00:38:39,069 --> 00:38:42,030
- Did you steal this stuff?
- Of course not. Stealing's naughty.
594
00:38:43,991 --> 00:38:46,910
- Is that the new Madden?
- I don't know, maybe.
595
00:38:46,994 --> 00:38:50,747
And also, I had all these
extra Christmas decorations
596
00:38:50,831 --> 00:38:54,793
in the sleeve... of my jacket.
597
00:38:54,877 --> 00:38:57,421
And I thought they might
brighten the place up a little.
598
00:38:57,504 --> 00:39:00,507
Oh, thanks, that's kind. I haven't
come up with much on your brother.
599
00:39:00,591 --> 00:39:04,678
I'm gonna need some more time, not today,
'cause Alex and I are going to laser tag.
600
00:39:04,761 --> 00:39:07,222
- I'd rather go to work with you, Dad.
- Me too!
601
00:39:07,306 --> 00:39:10,017
I never get to go to work.
Unless it's at the workshop.
602
00:39:10,100 --> 00:39:13,020
But we're not going to a workshop.
Are we?
603
00:39:13,103 --> 00:39:16,231
I never get to see what you do.
It'll be interesting.
604
00:39:16,315 --> 00:39:17,733
So interesting.
605
00:39:17,816 --> 00:39:18,817
Um...
606
00:39:19,359 --> 00:39:23,447
I don't know about that. But, uh...
Sure, if that's what you want to do.
607
00:39:23,530 --> 00:39:25,157
Let me get your other file, Kringle.
608
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:32,039
So, Alex, are you excited
about Christmas?
609
00:39:32,122 --> 00:39:34,458
I have mixed feelings, honestly.
610
00:39:34,541 --> 00:39:37,085
About Christmas?
How's that possible?
611
00:39:37,669 --> 00:39:38,921
It's complicated.
612
00:39:39,004 --> 00:39:40,839
Maybe you're just not eating enough.
613
00:39:41,381 --> 00:39:43,383
I can't.
It's terrible.
614
00:39:43,467 --> 00:39:44,843
The eggs are rubbery,
615
00:39:44,927 --> 00:39:47,596
the bacon is burnt on the outside,
and raw in the middle.
616
00:39:47,679 --> 00:39:51,350
Pancakes bounce, I don't even know
what that is, and there's no seasoning.
617
00:39:51,433 --> 00:39:52,768
Would you like a candy cane?
618
00:39:52,851 --> 00:39:55,229
No, I have to eat this.
619
00:39:55,312 --> 00:39:57,856
I don't wanna hurt my dad's feelings,
he worked hard on it.
620
00:39:57,940 --> 00:40:00,943
Oh, well, maybe I can help.
621
00:40:01,026 --> 00:40:03,195
Just get a couple pancake...
622
00:40:04,279 --> 00:40:05,656
- Oh!
- Kringle!
623
00:40:07,449 --> 00:40:10,035
Hey!
Good appetite.
624
00:40:10,118 --> 00:40:13,038
That is how you grow up
strong and healthy.
625
00:40:13,622 --> 00:40:15,999
So, Kringle, I called the police,
the hospitals,
626
00:40:16,083 --> 00:40:17,876
the morgue,
the bureau of records, nothing.
627
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:19,711
Only place left to check are the shelters.
628
00:40:20,295 --> 00:40:21,547
Shelters like igloos?
629
00:40:28,136 --> 00:40:30,055
Good morning,
welcome to Phoenix shelter.
630
00:40:30,138 --> 00:40:31,181
How can I help you?
631
00:40:31,265 --> 00:40:35,435
Morning, my name's Jake Hapman.
I'm a licensed private detective.
632
00:40:35,519 --> 00:40:37,229
We're looking for a Nick Kringle.
633
00:40:37,312 --> 00:40:38,438
A Nick Kringle?
634
00:40:38,522 --> 00:40:41,400
He's about 6'2",
he's dressed in a red suit,
635
00:40:41,483 --> 00:40:43,944
he's got a beard, pom-pom.
636
00:40:44,027 --> 00:40:45,028
I have a picture.
637
00:40:45,112 --> 00:40:47,656
And, yes. I know how strange that sounds.
638
00:40:49,616 --> 00:40:51,785
- That's so beautiful.
- She can't hear you.
639
00:40:51,869 --> 00:40:53,871
- Oh. That's...
- She's deaf.
640
00:40:54,872 --> 00:40:55,873
Sorry.
641
00:40:58,292 --> 00:41:00,168
It's really a lovely picture, though.
642
00:41:10,512 --> 00:41:14,016
My daughter says thank you,
and she wants to know what your name is.
643
00:41:14,099 --> 00:41:16,810
My name is Noelle.
644
00:41:19,438 --> 00:41:20,439
Do you know sign?
645
00:41:22,232 --> 00:41:25,319
No.
Not that I'm aware of, no.
646
00:41:30,616 --> 00:41:34,203
It's nice to meet you too, Michelle.
What do you want for Christmas?
647
00:41:45,839 --> 00:41:48,634
I need to go get her lunch,
but it was nice to meet you.
648
00:41:52,179 --> 00:41:54,431
An iPad.
You got it.
649
00:41:57,434 --> 00:41:59,019
How did you just do that?
650
00:41:59,895 --> 00:42:02,773
I don't know.
I don't.
651
00:42:02,856 --> 00:42:05,400
- Did you study it in school?
- No, I majored in calligraphy,
652
00:42:05,484 --> 00:42:07,486
I had a minor in popcorn stringing.
653
00:42:07,569 --> 00:42:09,571
And I...
None of this make sense.
654
00:42:09,655 --> 00:42:11,949
What kind of world is this? This is awful.
655
00:42:12,032 --> 00:42:15,953
You have people without homes
and food, and I'm so hot. God!
656
00:42:16,036 --> 00:42:18,413
Uh, do you have any ice in this town?
657
00:42:27,422 --> 00:42:29,883
Kringle, two minutes.
658
00:42:35,973 --> 00:42:37,850
Hello.
Merry Christmas.
659
00:42:38,851 --> 00:42:40,853
- Can I get some fruit pops?
- Sure.
660
00:42:40,936 --> 00:42:42,896
Ooh, fruit pops. There you go.
661
00:42:42,980 --> 00:42:45,148
Do you want anything else?
Any gelato or...
662
00:42:45,232 --> 00:42:47,276
No, I think I'm good.
Thanks.
663
00:42:47,359 --> 00:42:49,361
I like your pants,
they're jolly.
664
00:42:49,444 --> 00:42:52,906
Yeah. They're yoga pants.
Like yours.
665
00:42:53,657 --> 00:42:56,743
Yes. And these are my yogurt pants.
666
00:42:57,411 --> 00:43:01,582
No. Yoga... pants.
667
00:43:01,665 --> 00:43:05,294
Oh, yeah.
I love yogurt pants.
668
00:43:07,129 --> 00:43:10,215
- Never mind.
- Okay. Bye.
669
00:43:10,299 --> 00:43:11,717
She was weird, right?
670
00:43:12,509 --> 00:43:13,802
Where are you from?
671
00:43:13,886 --> 00:43:15,387
A little town up north.
672
00:43:16,013 --> 00:43:18,223
- You mean Canada?
- Canada wishes.
673
00:43:19,141 --> 00:43:21,935
Mmm, instant hot chocolate?
Is this for real?
674
00:43:22,019 --> 00:43:25,689
It's a powder. You pour hot water in it
and it becomes hot chocolate, instantly.
675
00:43:25,772 --> 00:43:27,482
Mmm, sounds naughty.
676
00:43:27,566 --> 00:43:30,277
It's way better when you make it
with real melted chocolate.
677
00:43:30,861 --> 00:43:32,070
Yeah, I agree.
678
00:43:32,154 --> 00:43:34,865
- That's how we used to make it.
- With your mom and dad?
679
00:43:34,948 --> 00:43:37,242
We tried to keep my dad
out of the kitchen,
680
00:43:37,326 --> 00:43:39,411
but he was in charge of
putting lights in the tree
681
00:43:39,494 --> 00:43:40,763
and we'd hang stockings together.
682
00:43:40,787 --> 00:43:42,539
This toy is messy.
683
00:43:42,623 --> 00:43:45,459
I don't think
we're gonna be doing that this year.
684
00:43:46,543 --> 00:43:47,753
'Cause it's complicated?
685
00:43:49,254 --> 00:43:51,924
Yeah. Well, it's still Christmas,
you know?
686
00:43:52,007 --> 00:43:53,675
And you still get a present from Santa.
687
00:43:54,301 --> 00:43:55,344
Oh...
688
00:43:55,427 --> 00:43:56,595
It's kind of offensive.
689
00:43:57,179 --> 00:44:00,098
- I don't think I still believe in Santa.
- Santa's real.
690
00:44:00,182 --> 00:44:02,726
He's under a lot of pressure right now,
but he's very real.
691
00:44:02,809 --> 00:44:06,146
In fact, if you tell me what you want,
put in a good word for ya. Hmm?
692
00:44:07,648 --> 00:44:09,316
Come on, give me a shot.
693
00:44:09,983 --> 00:44:11,235
Try me, come on.
694
00:44:12,569 --> 00:44:15,405
- Okay. I think I want...
- Hey, Kringle.
695
00:44:15,489 --> 00:44:17,366
- I found your brother.
- What?
696
00:44:17,449 --> 00:44:18,659
- Yep.
- How?
697
00:44:18,742 --> 00:44:19,868
The yoga pants.
698
00:44:19,952 --> 00:44:21,870
- Why do people keep saying that to me?
- Yoga.
699
00:44:21,954 --> 00:44:25,123
You said Nick wanted to breathe,
stretch and relax? I did some googling,
700
00:44:25,207 --> 00:44:29,002
and I found a Christmas Yoga Class
taught by a Nick K.
701
00:44:29,086 --> 00:44:31,547
Nick K? Nick K!
That's him! Ah!
702
00:44:31,630 --> 00:44:35,217
Let's go find him.
Ready, and one, two, three...
703
00:44:35,300 --> 00:44:37,511
- I'm gonna drop Alex at my sister's...
- Okay.
704
00:44:37,594 --> 00:44:39,471
- And I'll drive you up there.
- Um, sir...
705
00:44:40,180 --> 00:44:41,890
This says Santy Claus.
706
00:44:41,974 --> 00:44:44,518
You know it's Santa Claus. I...
707
00:44:44,601 --> 00:44:48,188
These'll just get sent back if you
don't fix that. Okay, thank you, bye.
708
00:44:50,941 --> 00:44:55,153
You know what you need to do? You need to
get Alex the perfect Christmas present.
709
00:44:55,237 --> 00:45:00,075
What about a cheese grater for Alex.
Or a George Foreman Grill?
710
00:45:00,158 --> 00:45:01,493
Alex doesn't cook.
711
00:45:02,035 --> 00:45:03,036
Oh.
712
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:04,746
Are you sure?
713
00:45:04,830 --> 00:45:08,208
He analyzed the breakfast you gave him
this morning in great detail.
714
00:45:08,292 --> 00:45:09,668
He really warmed up to you.
715
00:45:11,003 --> 00:45:13,839
- He's a great kid, isn't he?
- Yeah. Oh, steak knives.
716
00:45:13,922 --> 00:45:19,887
Sometimes, I feel like a hyped-up
camp counselor when he's around.
717
00:45:19,970 --> 00:45:22,514
I have to make sure
he's havin' a good time
718
00:45:22,598 --> 00:45:24,933
since we don't get to
see each other as much.
719
00:45:25,017 --> 00:45:27,102
And I feel guilty and...
720
00:45:27,186 --> 00:45:29,104
And then I overcompensate and...
721
00:45:30,898 --> 00:45:32,065
I don't know.
722
00:45:33,984 --> 00:45:35,068
That must be hard.
723
00:45:37,571 --> 00:45:40,824
Anyway, here we are.
724
00:45:47,206 --> 00:45:48,498
Oh, hey, there it is.
725
00:45:49,249 --> 00:45:50,751
Okay.
726
00:45:50,834 --> 00:45:54,755
You were so great with Alex,
I wanted to give you this.
727
00:45:55,923 --> 00:45:58,425
This, thank you.
728
00:45:58,509 --> 00:46:00,844
Wow.
Um, it's, uh...
729
00:46:01,386 --> 00:46:02,888
Oh, mmm...
730
00:46:02,971 --> 00:46:05,098
Yeah, it's... Oh, okay.
731
00:46:06,850 --> 00:46:09,686
Oh, my gosh, it's magical.
Look at that.
732
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:13,106
- Uh...
- Ugh.
733
00:46:14,525 --> 00:46:16,151
Stuffed chimneys!
734
00:46:16,235 --> 00:46:19,029
It smells like it should taste good,
but it doesn't.
735
00:46:19,112 --> 00:46:22,574
You're supposed to put in on your face.
Haven't you ever used sunblock before?
736
00:46:23,116 --> 00:46:25,285
Yeah, sunblock.
No, I love sunblock.
737
00:46:25,369 --> 00:46:28,789
It's for blocking the sun.
It's great. Is that good?
738
00:46:28,872 --> 00:46:30,666
You might wanna spread it around.
739
00:46:30,749 --> 00:46:33,752
Oh, no, yeah, I forgot to
spread it around. Just like that.
740
00:46:33,835 --> 00:46:35,546
It's burning.
Oh, my God, it's in my eye.
741
00:46:35,629 --> 00:46:37,130
- Well, you wanna...
- It's in my eye.
742
00:46:37,214 --> 00:46:39,758
- What do you like about this product?
- Stay still. Let me...
743
00:46:39,842 --> 00:46:41,802
- Stop. Just gotta rub it in.
- Okay, yep!
744
00:46:41,885 --> 00:46:45,430
- Just stay still.
- Worse than getting hit with a slush ball.
745
00:46:45,514 --> 00:46:49,101
Just gotta... You got a couple of
extra coats, but...
746
00:46:51,562 --> 00:46:54,648
Never know when you're gonna need
an extra coat. It is winter.
747
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,360
- Thanks!
- No problem.
748
00:46:58,443 --> 00:47:00,028
All right.
Good luck in there.
749
00:47:01,029 --> 00:47:02,573
Say hello to your brother for me.
750
00:47:02,656 --> 00:47:04,825
Will do.
Merry Christmas.
751
00:47:13,292 --> 00:47:17,296
Breathe in through your nose,
out your mouth.
752
00:47:18,338 --> 00:47:22,509
Now assume... downward facing reindeer.
753
00:47:26,263 --> 00:47:29,391
Very good, Cindy. Pete?
754
00:47:29,975 --> 00:47:32,102
Ow!
755
00:47:32,186 --> 00:47:35,355
Hey, hey!
756
00:47:35,439 --> 00:47:38,567
- What are you doing here?
- What are you doing here?
757
00:47:38,650 --> 00:47:41,612
- What are you doing here?
- What are you doing here? This is crazy.
758
00:47:41,695 --> 00:47:45,157
- What's on your face?
- Oh! Oh, it's sunblock.
759
00:47:45,240 --> 00:47:46,783
Yeah, the heat here, right?
760
00:47:46,867 --> 00:47:50,495
It's like being locked in the cookie
cottage during toll-house season, right?
761
00:47:50,579 --> 00:47:52,581
- Oh, by the way... You scared me so much.
- Shh!
762
00:47:52,664 --> 00:47:54,249
- Come on.
- Yoga voice.
763
00:47:54,333 --> 00:47:56,335
- You had me worried sick.
- Yoga voice.
764
00:47:56,418 --> 00:47:59,588
- Mom's been beside herself.
- Yoga voice. Stop. Wait. Ellie, I'm sorry.
765
00:47:59,671 --> 00:48:02,508
I'm sorry, okay. Just hold on.
Can't let anybody hear.
766
00:48:04,259 --> 00:48:07,429
Listen, I like it here.
Okay?
767
00:48:07,513 --> 00:48:11,934
I like the weather. I like yoga, I mean,
I donated all my thermals to charity.
768
00:48:12,017 --> 00:48:14,228
Weird, you can tell me about it
in the sleigh.
769
00:48:14,311 --> 00:48:15,896
No, listen.
I'm...
770
00:48:17,773 --> 00:48:18,857
I'm not going back.
771
00:48:19,525 --> 00:48:22,486
I'm sorry, I must have
cotton candy in my ears.
772
00:48:22,569 --> 00:48:27,616
I know. I can't pretend to be
someone I'm not anymore.
773
00:48:27,699 --> 00:48:31,078
I could, but I start to break out
in a rash, and my hair starts to...
774
00:48:31,161 --> 00:48:33,205
Okay, Nick, I understand.
775
00:48:33,288 --> 00:48:36,500
You're under a lot of pressure and I know
what it's like to be a Kringle,
776
00:48:36,583 --> 00:48:39,336
- this family legacy we have to live up to.
- Not the same thing.
777
00:48:39,419 --> 00:48:41,255
Well, I am Santa's daughter, so...
778
00:48:41,338 --> 00:48:44,007
Well, no one's ever expected anything
of you, Noelle.
779
00:48:45,926 --> 00:48:49,054
I mean, I've been training
to be Santa my whole life.
780
00:48:49,137 --> 00:48:51,515
While you've been... What?
Cutting ribbon,
781
00:48:51,598 --> 00:48:54,476
and making your silly cards?
782
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,937
- Thought you liked my cards.
- I do.
783
00:48:57,020 --> 00:48:58,856
I'm sorry I said that.
I do like your cards.
784
00:48:58,939 --> 00:49:01,149
They're very creative.
I admire your shakti.
785
00:49:01,233 --> 00:49:03,527
- My what?
- Your female energy.
786
00:49:03,610 --> 00:49:06,738
Besides, you're the one
that told me to go.
787
00:49:06,822 --> 00:49:09,783
You said, you, you said,
"Go! Take some time."
788
00:49:09,867 --> 00:49:12,995
I said take the weekend.
Nobody listens to me.
789
00:49:13,078 --> 00:49:14,538
You know how hard this has been?
790
00:49:14,621 --> 00:49:16,623
Everybody at home is blaming me,
yelling at me,
791
00:49:16,707 --> 00:49:18,959
and nobody's giving me
my Kringle discount anymore.
792
00:49:19,042 --> 00:49:21,169
So it doesn't matter
that I'm finally happy
793
00:49:21,253 --> 00:49:24,798
or that me leaving the Pole was the
best thing I could've done for Christmas.
794
00:49:24,882 --> 00:49:26,675
All that matters
is what's happening to you.
795
00:49:26,758 --> 00:49:29,469
Oh, you better not pout,
you better not cry.
796
00:49:29,553 --> 00:49:31,388
All I have ever done is try to help you.
797
00:49:31,471 --> 00:49:34,516
You're a coward who's too afraid
to be Santa Claus!
798
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:38,395
Exactly! Bingo! Partridge in a pear tree!
That's what I've been trying to tell you!
799
00:49:38,478 --> 00:49:42,065
- Then I guess, that's all there is to say.
- Wait, where are you going?
800
00:49:42,149 --> 00:49:45,235
I'm going to the North Pole
where nobody expects anything from me.
801
00:49:45,319 --> 00:49:47,279
Do you know what?
If I wasn't so enlightened,
802
00:49:47,362 --> 00:49:48,840
I'd be seething with anger right now.
803
00:49:48,864 --> 00:49:49,948
- Oh, ho, ho!
- Yeah!
804
00:49:50,032 --> 00:49:51,909
- So now you don't like my shakti?
- No!
805
00:49:51,992 --> 00:49:53,368
You don't like my female energy?
806
00:49:53,452 --> 00:49:54,995
- Is this too much for you?
- Relax.
807
00:49:55,078 --> 00:49:56,580
Oh, I'll give you female energy.
808
00:49:57,289 --> 00:49:58,373
Oh!
809
00:49:58,457 --> 00:50:00,125
Get ready, 'cause I...
810
00:50:01,043 --> 00:50:02,586
Don't do that.
Please.
811
00:50:04,338 --> 00:50:06,340
Wow!
That's a big deal in here.
812
00:50:08,717 --> 00:50:10,093
Merry Christmas!
813
00:50:13,472 --> 00:50:16,475
Come see
and play with Santa's reindeer,
814
00:50:16,558 --> 00:50:18,810
only at Desert Ridge Marketplace.
815
00:50:18,894 --> 00:50:19,978
Ooh!
816
00:50:20,062 --> 00:50:21,605
Look at the reindeer!
817
00:50:21,688 --> 00:50:24,191
Nick's happy here.
Yeah, he wants to stay.
818
00:50:24,274 --> 00:50:27,361
You know what? Maybe it'll be fine.
Maybe Gabe will be a great Santa.
819
00:50:27,444 --> 00:50:30,155
- Hey, Noelle.
- What are you guys doing here?
820
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,574
We heard about these amazing reindeer
at the mall.
821
00:50:32,658 --> 00:50:33,825
Are you a part of this?
822
00:50:33,909 --> 00:50:37,079
Well, yes, I know these reindeer.
823
00:50:40,165 --> 00:50:41,333
Who are these people?
824
00:50:41,416 --> 00:50:43,502
Oh, Jake, Alex.
This is Elf...
825
00:50:44,253 --> 00:50:47,714
This is my aunt, Polly.
She plays an elf in the show.
826
00:50:47,798 --> 00:50:49,508
A grumpy, bitter, miserable elf.
827
00:50:49,591 --> 00:50:51,677
I thought elves were
supposed to be like, uh...
828
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,013
Cute?
That's a common misconception.
829
00:50:56,223 --> 00:50:58,475
Now wait a minute.
I wanna show you something.
830
00:50:59,518 --> 00:51:02,062
See this?
What do you think it does?
831
00:51:02,855 --> 00:51:05,691
Nothing. It's just for show.
Try those.
832
00:51:05,774 --> 00:51:07,693
So, how'd it go with your brother?
833
00:51:07,776 --> 00:51:10,320
Oh, not great. Yeah, we got in
a big argument. So...
834
00:51:10,946 --> 00:51:12,865
- The holidays can be tough.
- Mmm.
835
00:51:12,948 --> 00:51:16,368
Alex is spending Christmas
with his step-dad and my ex, Jessie.
836
00:51:16,451 --> 00:51:18,453
This is the first holiday
since the divorce.
837
00:51:18,537 --> 00:51:20,330
So he's havin' a rough time.
838
00:51:20,414 --> 00:51:22,583
She's invited me over
for Christmas morning.
839
00:51:22,666 --> 00:51:25,085
That's amazing!
Oh, Alex would love that so much.
840
00:51:25,168 --> 00:51:27,921
- You're gonna go, right?
- I think she just feels obligated.
841
00:51:28,005 --> 00:51:30,924
It'll probably be awkward,
I don't wanna ruin Christmas for Alex.
842
00:51:31,008 --> 00:51:33,343
I'm gonna stay at home,
put a frozen pizza in the oven
843
00:51:33,427 --> 00:51:36,388
and watch some basketball.
Like a total loser.
844
00:51:36,471 --> 00:51:38,682
Dad! The sleigh is amazing.
845
00:51:38,765 --> 00:51:40,017
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
846
00:51:40,100 --> 00:51:43,270
I don't wanna be a party pooper,
but I think it's time we get goin'.
847
00:51:44,563 --> 00:51:46,398
When are we gonna see
Noelle and Polly again?
848
00:51:46,481 --> 00:51:48,984
- Probably never.
- Polly! That...
849
00:51:50,027 --> 00:51:53,322
Well, I do have somewhere
I need to be for Christmas.
850
00:51:53,405 --> 00:51:57,201
But you're gonna get your wish and spend
Christmas with your whole family.
851
00:51:57,284 --> 00:51:59,661
Because you're nice.
I mean, officially.
852
00:52:02,372 --> 00:52:05,042
Come on. Thanks, guys.
It was...
853
00:52:05,125 --> 00:52:06,210
It was jolly.
854
00:52:08,754 --> 00:52:11,131
Oh, I hope their Christmas works out.
855
00:52:11,715 --> 00:52:13,926
Oh, well, look at you.
856
00:52:14,009 --> 00:52:17,221
Worrying about someone else's Christmas
and not your own.
857
00:52:17,304 --> 00:52:19,223
Now that is very mature.
858
00:52:20,307 --> 00:52:21,725
Thank you, Polly.
859
00:52:22,893 --> 00:52:24,853
Oh! Snowcone!
860
00:52:26,980 --> 00:52:28,982
What are you doing here?
861
00:52:29,066 --> 00:52:30,859
How did you get here?
862
00:52:30,943 --> 00:52:32,819
Did you fly here all by yourself?
863
00:52:33,612 --> 00:52:35,614
Polly! Look who it is.
864
00:52:36,532 --> 00:52:40,327
You're so brave. You must have picked up
my scent from all the people in Phoenix.
865
00:52:40,410 --> 00:52:42,996
How many people
wear gingerbread deodorant?'
866
00:52:44,164 --> 00:52:47,209
Oh. What have you got? It's from Mother.
867
00:52:47,793 --> 00:52:51,255
"Noelle, I know I was angry,
but even though you acted selfishly"
868
00:52:51,338 --> 00:52:53,298
"and foolishly and immaturely, and..."
869
00:52:53,382 --> 00:52:55,968
Right, I'm gonna skip ahead.
870
00:52:56,552 --> 00:52:58,470
"Disrespectfully, childishly."
871
00:52:58,554 --> 00:53:01,265
"You must find your brother
and bring him home because..."
872
00:53:02,224 --> 00:53:06,812
"Gabe says there are
only 2,837 nice children,"
873
00:53:06,895 --> 00:53:11,358
"and wants to deliver their presents by
drone or something called Amazon Prime."
874
00:53:11,942 --> 00:53:13,777
"As Kringles, for 2,000 years,"
875
00:53:13,861 --> 00:53:17,322
"we've dedicated ourselves to bringing
the joy and happiness that is Christmas"
876
00:53:17,406 --> 00:53:19,825
"to the world and we must make sure
nothing changes that."
877
00:53:19,908 --> 00:53:24,121
"So I sent you the last flying reindeer in
the Pole to help you rescue your brother."
878
00:53:42,472 --> 00:53:43,724
Okay, Snowy,
879
00:53:43,807 --> 00:53:46,393
you found me, so I know
you can find Santa, okay?
880
00:53:46,476 --> 00:53:49,688
He smells like hot chocolate and
peppermint, now it's mixed with incense.
881
00:53:49,771 --> 00:53:51,315
He's on a whole journey.
882
00:53:51,398 --> 00:53:53,233
But I need you to track him. Okay?
883
00:53:53,317 --> 00:53:55,037
But we can't take you out
looking like this.
884
00:54:09,750 --> 00:54:12,461
Just walkin' my dog, you know.
885
00:54:12,544 --> 00:54:15,547
His name is Rover. Which is a dog's name.
886
00:54:15,631 --> 00:54:18,342
That's why I named him that.
It's a very rare breed.
887
00:54:18,425 --> 00:54:20,886
He's a white Polar Poodle.
888
00:54:20,969 --> 00:54:23,055
You smell something?
What do you smell?
889
00:54:23,138 --> 00:54:25,057
Whoa! Rover!
890
00:54:27,142 --> 00:54:29,204
- Merry Christmas, everybody.
- Rover!
891
00:54:29,228 --> 00:54:30,687
Please make a donation.
892
00:54:34,942 --> 00:54:37,069
What do you smell, boy?
Was Santa here?
893
00:54:38,028 --> 00:54:41,114
Yeah? What do you smell?
Where'd he go? Did he go this way?
894
00:54:41,657 --> 00:54:42,658
He go this way?
895
00:54:46,537 --> 00:54:48,288
I don't understand.
It's very professional,
896
00:54:48,372 --> 00:54:51,208
you look very Dasher junior.
We gotta find Santa.
897
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,675
Next stop, Desert Botanical Gardens.
Yoga retreat.
898
00:55:02,302 --> 00:55:03,303
Okay!
899
00:55:04,763 --> 00:55:06,139
After you.
900
00:55:38,380 --> 00:55:42,509
Oh, okay. Great job, little guy.
Wish me luck.
901
00:56:00,277 --> 00:56:01,278
Nick.
902
00:56:02,487 --> 00:56:04,072
Hi, I know you're mad at me.
903
00:56:04,531 --> 00:56:05,616
Um...
904
00:56:05,699 --> 00:56:11,288
There's things going on at home
that... only Santa can fix.
905
00:56:13,790 --> 00:56:15,792
Really.
See for yourself.
906
00:56:20,464 --> 00:56:25,928
Okay. I realize I wasn't seeing things
from your point of view.
907
00:56:26,011 --> 00:56:27,930
Nobody asked you
if you wanted to wear the hat.
908
00:56:28,013 --> 00:56:30,474
We all expected you to take the reins
and that's not fair.
909
00:56:30,557 --> 00:56:33,894
And... I'm sorry.
910
00:56:36,647 --> 00:56:38,023
But we really need you.
911
00:56:41,235 --> 00:56:42,819
Nick, won't you even speak to me?
912
00:56:46,782 --> 00:56:47,866
Silent for how long?
913
00:56:49,034 --> 00:56:51,161
When the flowers, yeah, when...
914
00:56:51,245 --> 00:56:53,121
It's the... Is this a...
915
00:56:53,205 --> 00:56:55,499
And a... A hand comes in.
916
00:56:55,582 --> 00:56:58,001
Is that a bird landing?
917
00:56:58,085 --> 00:57:00,587
You were always bad at charades.
This will take forever.
918
00:57:00,671 --> 00:57:02,172
Two words?
Two words.
919
00:57:02,256 --> 00:57:04,633
Two words.
First word, me.
920
00:57:04,716 --> 00:57:05,968
Until sunrise.
921
00:57:06,051 --> 00:57:07,427
Shh!
922
00:57:08,136 --> 00:57:10,722
Okay. Well,
I can wait till sunrise.
923
00:57:10,806 --> 00:57:12,850
- No!
- Talk at sunrise. Yeah.
924
00:57:12,933 --> 00:57:14,852
- I'll wait until sunrise.
- You gotta go.
925
00:57:14,935 --> 00:57:18,146
- I'll be quiet as a mouse.
- You've never been quiet. Get outta here.
926
00:57:18,230 --> 00:57:20,607
- I'm quiet all the time.
- One, two, three, be quiet.
927
00:57:21,859 --> 00:57:23,610
I was only...
928
00:57:23,694 --> 00:57:26,947
- I was talking 'cause you were talking.
- See! You can't do it.
929
00:57:27,030 --> 00:57:31,118
Noelle, I'm sorry,
you gotta go.
930
00:57:32,119 --> 00:57:33,161
Okay.
931
00:57:35,038 --> 00:57:38,125
I'm just gonna leave this.
You don't have to read it.
932
00:57:38,667 --> 00:57:39,918
Just, if you want to.
933
00:57:41,753 --> 00:57:42,838
I love you.
934
00:57:44,339 --> 00:57:45,465
Whatever you wanna do.
935
00:57:59,813 --> 00:58:00,981
Relax.
936
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:04,752
Team tracks for Texas.
937
00:58:04,776 --> 00:58:06,653
He drives down the court,
it's an easy lay-up.
938
00:58:06,737 --> 00:58:10,032
- It helps if you put salt on it.
- No one has that much salt, Dad.
939
00:58:11,366 --> 00:58:12,367
Oh.
940
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:14,494
What did I do wrong?
941
00:58:14,578 --> 00:58:16,914
You can make the pan hotter
before you put the meat in.
942
00:58:16,997 --> 00:58:18,624
Don't press the patties down so hard.
943
00:58:18,707 --> 00:58:21,627
It loses the juices and gets dried out.
And if you toast the bun,
944
00:58:21,710 --> 00:58:24,588
and put some butter on it, it gives it
this crunchy texture each bite.
945
00:58:24,671 --> 00:58:27,716
Oh, why didn't you tell me
you were into cooking?
946
00:58:28,300 --> 00:58:30,344
I thought maybe you wouldn't like it.
947
00:58:30,427 --> 00:58:33,597
Hey, man,
I like everything you do.
948
00:58:34,431 --> 00:58:36,558
Hey, maybe you could give me some lessons.
949
00:58:39,895 --> 00:58:42,731
Guess who's coming
to the marketplace. Santa!
950
00:58:42,814 --> 00:58:44,733
Hope you've been nice this year.
951
00:58:44,816 --> 00:58:46,318
Let's go over there.
952
00:58:54,576 --> 00:58:56,745
Supercuts.
How do I look?
953
00:58:57,371 --> 00:58:58,497
Like Prancer.
954
00:58:59,081 --> 00:59:02,000
More like Vixen,
with that tuft of hair up there.
955
00:59:04,211 --> 00:59:05,963
Santa!
956
00:59:06,046 --> 00:59:07,631
- Nick. Hey!
- Hey.
957
00:59:07,714 --> 00:59:09,758
I'm so sorry.
958
00:59:09,842 --> 00:59:13,929
Look. What's happening at the Pole
is very naughty.
959
00:59:14,763 --> 00:59:16,056
But I can't be Santa.
960
00:59:16,139 --> 00:59:18,183
The Santa that they hired isn't here yet.
961
00:59:18,267 --> 00:59:20,686
Sit with a couple of kids,
you'll feel The Twinkle.
962
00:59:20,769 --> 00:59:24,606
And if you don't, no more pressure.
I will leave you alone. I almost promise.
963
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:27,234
- I can't, Ellie.
- Nick Kringle,
964
00:59:27,317 --> 00:59:30,696
this is in your blood.
It's in your stars.
965
00:59:30,779 --> 00:59:32,197
It's in your destiny.
966
00:59:32,281 --> 00:59:34,700
I left the suit in the North Pole.
967
00:59:34,783 --> 00:59:36,785
That's a problem, Nick.
Come on.
968
00:59:37,411 --> 00:59:39,037
This costume is ridiculous.
969
00:59:39,121 --> 00:59:41,331
I don't see any difference
from what you usually wear.
970
00:59:41,415 --> 00:59:42,875
- Excuse me?
- Or...
971
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:44,710
You think I look like this all the time?
972
00:59:44,793 --> 00:59:47,462
Worst thing anyone's ever said to me.
You, gather the reindeer.
973
00:59:47,546 --> 00:59:50,674
- We're doing this and going home.
- Well, how is it different?
974
00:59:50,757 --> 00:59:52,968
Little lower and to the right, please.
975
00:59:54,469 --> 00:59:56,513
I just don't think
it's that great of an idea.
976
00:59:56,597 --> 00:59:57,598
Santa!
977
00:59:57,681 --> 00:59:59,492
- It'll be great.
- There's a lot of them.
978
00:59:59,516 --> 01:00:01,310
- I don't know...
- You're gonna be great.
979
01:00:01,393 --> 01:00:03,770
Santa is so excited to meet you guys.
980
01:00:06,982 --> 01:00:09,234
You got this.
Come on up.
981
01:00:09,318 --> 01:00:10,736
Go ahead.
Go on.
982
01:00:10,819 --> 01:00:13,363
Ho, ho, ho, ho,
ho, ho, ho! Hi!
983
01:00:14,823 --> 01:00:16,533
Merry Christmas.
What's your name?
984
01:00:21,997 --> 01:00:23,332
Right back at you.
985
01:00:32,007 --> 01:00:35,427
- His name's Ajeet. He's from India.
- Wait, how do you know that?
986
01:00:35,802 --> 01:00:37,429
I don't know.
You pick stuff up.
987
01:00:38,013 --> 01:00:40,432
For Christmas, he wants his cousin
to come live with him
988
01:00:40,516 --> 01:00:42,184
- in Phoenix, Arizona.
- Okay.
989
01:00:45,020 --> 01:00:46,730
- And an iPad.
- An iPad. I got that.
990
01:00:47,314 --> 01:00:49,525
That was fun, right?
Merry Christmas.
991
01:00:50,192 --> 01:00:52,694
- Do we break for lunch now or is that...
- No!
992
01:00:55,489 --> 01:00:58,992
- Hello!
- Let's not make a meal out of this.
993
01:00:59,076 --> 01:01:03,580
I'm only doing it so my parents
can practice using Snapchat.
994
01:01:05,374 --> 01:01:09,419
Got it. So, Merry Christmas.
What's your name?
995
01:01:09,503 --> 01:01:12,089
Tonya.
Tonya Cooperman.
996
01:01:12,506 --> 01:01:16,093
Tonya Cooperman.
And have you been a good girl?
997
01:01:16,176 --> 01:01:18,762
I really don't see
how that's your business.
998
01:01:18,846 --> 01:01:20,097
You're right.
I'm sorry.
999
01:01:20,180 --> 01:01:22,182
That was over the line, um...
1000
01:01:22,975 --> 01:01:25,477
Let's say you were a good girl,
1001
01:01:26,562 --> 01:01:28,146
what do you want for Christmas?
1002
01:01:28,230 --> 01:01:30,357
Why?
You're gonna get it for me?
1003
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,277
A pathetic mall Santa?
1004
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:36,071
You're right.
He's not gonna get it for you.
1005
01:01:36,154 --> 01:01:39,241
Because you were so mean to Jennie Stalts
just 'cause she has a lisp.
1006
01:01:39,324 --> 01:01:41,577
Tonya, Jennie is your best friend.
1007
01:01:41,660 --> 01:01:42,911
Get over here.
1008
01:01:43,954 --> 01:01:45,539
How'd you know about Jennie Stalts?
1009
01:01:45,622 --> 01:01:47,749
She had a Jennie Stalts vibe,
I don't know.
1010
01:01:48,083 --> 01:01:52,045
Usually, it takes people years of yoga
to get that kind of awareness.
1011
01:01:54,673 --> 01:01:56,133
Oh, I see my friend.
I'll be back.
1012
01:01:56,216 --> 01:01:57,885
- Wait, no!
- You're doing great!
1013
01:01:57,968 --> 01:02:01,263
No, I'm not. Please,
I don't know what I'm doing.
1014
01:02:02,723 --> 01:02:03,724
Next.
1015
01:02:05,851 --> 01:02:08,020
Hi, Merry Christmas.
What's your name?
1016
01:02:08,103 --> 01:02:10,314
Why did you write this to me, Santa?
1017
01:02:11,857 --> 01:02:15,027
"Dear Roberto, due to your
continuous failure to make your bed,"
1018
01:02:15,110 --> 01:02:17,654
"you will not be receiving
a present this year."
1019
01:02:17,738 --> 01:02:19,740
"We invite you
to correct this naughty flaw"
1020
01:02:19,823 --> 01:02:22,367
"and reapply for present status
next Christmas."
1021
01:02:22,451 --> 01:02:23,827
Yeah, I didn't write that.
1022
01:02:24,703 --> 01:02:27,706
"Best wishes, Santa."
Hmm. Right there.
1023
01:02:27,789 --> 01:02:29,517
- I got one too.
- I got one too.
1024
01:02:29,541 --> 01:02:31,627
- I got one.
- I got one too.
1025
01:02:32,252 --> 01:02:35,547
Hey! Oh, my God!
I'm so jolly you're here.
1026
01:02:36,507 --> 01:02:40,135
Did you tell Alex that I would spend
Christmas with him and my ex-wife?
1027
01:02:40,594 --> 01:02:43,972
Yeah. It's his Christmas wish
to go to that Chinese restaurant
1028
01:02:44,056 --> 01:02:46,683
you guys always go to
on Christmas day, Sun Ming,
1029
01:02:46,767 --> 01:02:48,977
and have the red and green egg rolls.
1030
01:02:49,061 --> 01:02:51,021
But I told you,
Jessie and I don't get along.
1031
01:02:51,104 --> 01:02:55,067
She has a new life with her husband
and Alex, and I can't go over there.
1032
01:02:55,150 --> 01:02:58,445
Yeah. But if you use Christmas
to open up and talk about it...
1033
01:02:58,529 --> 01:03:01,114
Me?
Open up?
1034
01:03:01,532 --> 01:03:03,325
Kringle, you're the one who omits things.
1035
01:03:03,408 --> 01:03:06,954
Like how you can speak sign language,
or chocolate money.
1036
01:03:08,455 --> 01:03:11,875
No. That's fair, um, yeah.
1037
01:03:17,714 --> 01:03:21,343
My dad was Santa Claus,
he was great.
1038
01:03:21,677 --> 01:03:23,887
Every Christmas Eve,
he would slide down the chimney.
1039
01:03:23,971 --> 01:03:27,349
Could've come in the front door, but he
wanted to give us the full treatment.
1040
01:03:27,432 --> 01:03:31,353
Nick and I would peek out from our rooms,
I'd say I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus.
1041
01:03:31,436 --> 01:03:33,188
And then Dad would sit with us
1042
01:03:33,272 --> 01:03:36,775
and tell us about his night,
and that was my favorite present.
1043
01:03:36,859 --> 01:03:41,071
And then, Elf Polly,
now Aunt Polly,
1044
01:03:41,154 --> 01:03:42,781
um, she would take us to bed.
1045
01:03:43,824 --> 01:03:46,243
Six months ago, Dad died,
1046
01:03:46,326 --> 01:03:48,829
so, Nick became Santa
and he was feeling overwhelmed,
1047
01:03:48,912 --> 01:03:51,665
so I told him that he should
take some time off,
1048
01:03:51,748 --> 01:03:53,709
get away for a while and he wound up here,
1049
01:03:53,792 --> 01:03:55,794
and now he wants to stay and do yoga,
1050
01:03:55,878 --> 01:03:58,547
and, um, everybody in the North Pole
is really mad at me.
1051
01:03:58,630 --> 01:04:02,176
So, I took the sleigh and the reindeer
to bring him back.
1052
01:04:07,973 --> 01:04:10,434
All right, thank you
for being so nice to Alex.
1053
01:04:11,185 --> 01:04:13,937
Good luck, Kringle.
Merry Christmas.
1054
01:04:18,317 --> 01:04:20,402
Look, there's another Santa!
1055
01:04:20,485 --> 01:04:23,113
What're you doing?
This is my gig. Time to move.
1056
01:04:23,197 --> 01:04:24,448
Can I just say one thing?
1057
01:04:24,531 --> 01:04:25,884
- I'm certified.
- Sorry.
1058
01:04:25,908 --> 01:04:28,410
I have a diploma
from the Phoenix Santa school.
1059
01:04:28,493 --> 01:04:30,621
Sit back down.
This is where you belong.
1060
01:04:30,704 --> 01:04:33,916
- I belong in that chair.
- Excuse me. You sit down.
1061
01:04:33,999 --> 01:04:36,793
You are not even a real Santa.
I need you to show some respect.
1062
01:04:36,877 --> 01:04:39,588
- He's the real Santa.
- Let's discuss this over here.
1063
01:04:39,671 --> 01:04:41,048
Hey! You...
1064
01:04:42,716 --> 01:04:44,319
- You're coming with me.
- Oh, sorry!
1065
01:04:44,343 --> 01:04:46,386
- Leave her alone.
- This is unnecessary.
1066
01:04:46,470 --> 01:04:48,597
- Noelle!
- Nick, stay where you are.
1067
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:50,867
- Sorry!
- These kids need to meet the real Santa.
1068
01:04:50,891 --> 01:04:52,893
- I'll give you a free yoga class.
- Uh...
1069
01:04:52,976 --> 01:04:56,647
Ho, ho, ho! Who is next?
You, come on.
1070
01:05:01,109 --> 01:05:03,820
Look, my sister didn't mean any harm,
okay? She just...
1071
01:05:03,904 --> 01:05:05,906
She used to beat me up
for fun all the time.
1072
01:05:05,989 --> 01:05:08,659
She's just having fun, okay?
She's fun-loving.
1073
01:05:08,742 --> 01:05:10,744
I guess that's why she assaulted a cop.
1074
01:05:10,827 --> 01:05:13,539
She's talkin' about crazy things
like the North Pole and elves.
1075
01:05:13,622 --> 01:05:15,040
What's so crazy about elves?
1076
01:05:15,123 --> 01:05:17,668
They're holding her
for psychiatric evaluation.
1077
01:05:17,751 --> 01:05:19,962
Wait, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, though.
1078
01:05:20,045 --> 01:05:22,089
Thanks for the reminder.
I still gotta shop.
1079
01:05:22,172 --> 01:05:26,635
You still need to shop? Well, you know,
I can get you whatever you want.
1080
01:05:27,636 --> 01:05:30,097
You know?
Straight from the workshop.
1081
01:05:31,056 --> 01:05:36,019
You want a My Little Pony Explore
Equestria Crystal Empire Castle playset?
1082
01:05:36,103 --> 01:05:37,312
Done.
1083
01:05:38,105 --> 01:05:40,691
I'll get it for you. With accessories.
1084
01:05:41,066 --> 01:05:42,484
I don't have any kids.
1085
01:05:42,568 --> 01:05:43,819
What a shock.
1086
01:05:47,739 --> 01:05:50,367
There's only two days
till Christmas.
1087
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,663
Why don't you just eat
the whole gavel, Elder Elf Abe?
1088
01:05:54,746 --> 01:05:59,293
Now, I say we take all 2,837 presents,
1089
01:05:59,376 --> 01:06:03,672
put them on a motorized ice floe
with GPS coordinates and...
1090
01:06:03,755 --> 01:06:05,674
He can't do it!
1091
01:06:05,757 --> 01:06:07,843
GPS coordinates!
1092
01:06:08,385 --> 01:06:11,513
Gabe, for the last time,
1093
01:06:11,597 --> 01:06:17,352
there're more than 2,837 nice children.
1094
01:06:17,436 --> 01:06:18,437
Yeah!
1095
01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:22,649
However many presents there are,
we have no way to deliver them.
1096
01:06:22,733 --> 01:06:25,027
No, listen to me.
I can do this.
1097
01:06:25,110 --> 01:06:28,864
We just need to do a reboot or maybe
get an appointment at the Genius bar.
1098
01:06:28,947 --> 01:06:31,158
Please, I can do it!
1099
01:06:34,244 --> 01:06:36,830
Reports are filing in
from all over Phoenix
1100
01:06:36,914 --> 01:06:41,960
of emails denying children presents
and signed by Santa Claus.
1101
01:06:42,044 --> 01:06:46,423
Young Evelyn Ramirez received one
because she bites her fingernails.
1102
01:06:46,507 --> 01:06:50,969
Another boy was rejected
because of his failure to floss.
1103
01:06:51,053 --> 01:06:54,431
It seems like there's a real shortage
of Christmas spirit this year.
1104
01:06:55,390 --> 01:06:58,685
Hopefully, we'll have some more
cheerful stories for you soon.
1105
01:06:59,603 --> 01:07:06,568
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho,
Merry Christmas!
1106
01:07:13,033 --> 01:07:14,868
There was a disturbing scene
1107
01:07:14,952 --> 01:07:17,621
at the Desert Ridge Marketplace today.
1108
01:07:17,704 --> 01:07:19,790
A hysterical woman...
1109
01:07:41,937 --> 01:07:45,232
Listen, I know we can't hang
this Christmas,
1110
01:07:45,315 --> 01:07:47,317
but I got you something.
1111
01:07:54,616 --> 01:07:57,119
Thanks, Dad.
This is great.
1112
01:07:57,619 --> 01:07:59,621
I know you told Noelle
you wanted me to come over
1113
01:07:59,705 --> 01:08:03,375
and do our traditional Sun Ming
red and green eggroll thing, but I just...
1114
01:08:03,458 --> 01:08:05,377
Dad, I never told Noelle that.
1115
01:08:05,878 --> 01:08:07,379
Well, then,
how did she know?
1116
01:08:07,462 --> 01:08:10,382
She said I'd get what I wanted
for Christmas, but I never told her.
1117
01:08:10,465 --> 01:08:13,468
- Come on, Alex. That's ridiculous.
- Dad, it's true!
1118
01:08:24,813 --> 01:08:27,399
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
1119
01:08:27,482 --> 01:08:28,942
Can I come in?
1120
01:08:29,026 --> 01:08:30,319
Sure, Aunt Polly.
1121
01:08:30,903 --> 01:08:31,904
Thank you.
1122
01:08:31,987 --> 01:08:34,448
Or should I say... Elf Polly?
1123
01:08:37,618 --> 01:08:38,827
Sit.
1124
01:08:49,129 --> 01:08:52,341
Now, I see she told you,
1125
01:08:52,424 --> 01:08:54,343
and I see that you don't believe her.
1126
01:08:54,426 --> 01:08:55,928
That she lives in the North Pole?
1127
01:08:57,262 --> 01:09:01,099
No. I tend to believe what I can see.
1128
01:09:02,142 --> 01:09:03,602
Well, if that's the only problem.
1129
01:09:04,478 --> 01:09:05,479
Oh!
1130
01:09:06,104 --> 01:09:07,648
You should get that looked at.
1131
01:09:09,816 --> 01:09:12,653
Let me ask you a question, Detective.
1132
01:09:12,736 --> 01:09:14,363
Can you see love?
1133
01:09:16,365 --> 01:09:18,075
Can you see sorrow?
1134
01:09:20,869 --> 01:09:22,579
Can you see joy?
1135
01:09:24,623 --> 01:09:27,084
Is there anything realer than that?
1136
01:09:28,085 --> 01:09:30,128
Like what you feel for your boy?
1137
01:09:50,816 --> 01:09:51,817
How can I help?
1138
01:09:52,693 --> 01:09:55,946
Get her out of that hospital,
and I will take care of the rest.
1139
01:09:58,407 --> 01:10:00,826
Why do you think
you're here today, Noelle?
1140
01:10:02,828 --> 01:10:04,913
Because I kicked a policeman,
1141
01:10:04,997 --> 01:10:08,500
which isn't illegal where I'm from.
Because we don't have policeman.
1142
01:10:09,042 --> 01:10:10,127
I see.
1143
01:10:11,044 --> 01:10:12,504
And where are you from?
1144
01:10:14,506 --> 01:10:17,843
The North Pole, and my dad is Santa Claus,
1145
01:10:17,926 --> 01:10:21,054
and now my brother is Santa Claus.
You can start laughing now.
1146
01:10:21,847 --> 01:10:24,308
I'm not gonna laugh, Noelle.
1147
01:10:24,391 --> 01:10:27,477
I've dealt with many patients
who have unusual identities.
1148
01:10:27,853 --> 01:10:30,397
I treat a man who believes
he's the tooth fairy.
1149
01:10:32,191 --> 01:10:33,567
Well, that's ridiculous.
1150
01:10:33,859 --> 01:10:36,403
And a woman who's certain
she's Mother Nature.
1151
01:10:37,237 --> 01:10:39,907
Wow.
Some real nuts out there.
1152
01:10:39,990 --> 01:10:43,744
And I have another patient who's convinced
he's Frosty the Snowman.
1153
01:10:43,952 --> 01:10:45,078
Frosty's here?
1154
01:10:46,246 --> 01:10:50,542
No, no. Come on. Nice try.
Frosty couldn't survive in Phoenix.
1155
01:10:50,626 --> 01:10:52,461
At home, he doesn't even go indoors.
1156
01:10:52,544 --> 01:10:54,546
He's terrified of fireplaces.
1157
01:10:55,088 --> 01:10:57,049
Drama queen.
Miss that guy.
1158
01:11:00,177 --> 01:11:01,678
You know, the thing is,
1159
01:11:02,471 --> 01:11:05,724
I just thought this was my chance
to do something right.
1160
01:11:05,807 --> 01:11:09,561
You know? I wanted to prove
I'm not some spoiled princess
1161
01:11:09,645 --> 01:11:13,148
who just thinks about herself and writes
her silly cards all day, you know?
1162
01:11:14,691 --> 01:11:19,279
I always thought, eventually,
I'd do something important.
1163
01:11:22,824 --> 01:11:25,202
- Yes?
- Sorry to interrupt, Dr. Sussman,
1164
01:11:25,285 --> 01:11:28,539
but I need Miss Kringle
on official police business for a second.
1165
01:11:29,831 --> 01:11:30,916
That's fine.
1166
01:11:36,964 --> 01:11:39,675
Right outside if you need me,
Jake. You got two minutes.
1167
01:11:47,766 --> 01:11:51,436
Look, I don't know how you knew
about me and Alex,
1168
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:54,606
- and our red and green eggroll tradition.
- I shouldn't have interfered.
1169
01:11:54,690 --> 01:11:57,609
You know, but you made him happy.
And you made me...
1170
01:11:57,693 --> 01:11:59,111
Deliriously joyful.
1171
01:12:00,404 --> 01:12:02,656
Laugh... mostly at you.
1172
01:12:03,407 --> 01:12:05,784
Which still makes it my best Christmas
in a long time.
1173
01:12:05,868 --> 01:12:08,912
So, when Polly came to see me
about getting you out of here...
1174
01:12:08,996 --> 01:12:10,914
Wait, so you believe what I told you?
1175
01:12:11,540 --> 01:12:14,418
I believe that you believe.
1176
01:12:15,127 --> 01:12:17,588
But to get out of here,
stop talking about the North Pole,
1177
01:12:17,671 --> 01:12:18,982
and Santa Claus.
1178
01:12:19,006 --> 01:12:20,507
- Yeah. And sleighs.
- And sleighs.
1179
01:12:20,591 --> 01:12:21,758
Oh!
1180
01:12:22,676 --> 01:12:23,969
What?
What?
1181
01:12:26,138 --> 01:12:29,433
Oh, the sleigh. You've seen it before.
You saw it at the mall.
1182
01:12:29,516 --> 01:12:33,020
You haven't seen it hovering
11 stories up, that's the only difference.
1183
01:12:35,647 --> 01:12:36,732
You okay?
1184
01:12:37,065 --> 01:12:40,652
Miss Kringle, I think that
we should resume and... Oh!
1185
01:12:40,736 --> 01:12:42,529
- Hi.
- Hi.
1186
01:12:42,613 --> 01:12:44,531
That's unusual.
1187
01:12:50,913 --> 01:12:54,041
Jake?
It's Clara. Open up.
1188
01:12:54,124 --> 01:12:55,375
Quick, get in your...
1189
01:12:55,459 --> 01:12:56,627
- Sleigh, yeah.
- Sleigh.
1190
01:12:58,045 --> 01:13:00,797
You're not a total loser.
You're a nice person.
1191
01:13:00,881 --> 01:13:02,382
And a wonderful dad.
1192
01:13:02,758 --> 01:13:04,468
And you're very generous with sunblock.
1193
01:13:04,885 --> 01:13:06,345
Jake? Open up.
1194
01:13:06,428 --> 01:13:07,763
- Just go!
- Yeah.
1195
01:13:09,389 --> 01:13:10,390
Come on.
1196
01:13:10,807 --> 01:13:11,975
Careful.
1197
01:13:12,059 --> 01:13:13,227
- Oh, boy.
- Okay.
1198
01:13:13,310 --> 01:13:15,479
- Bye.
- Okay, let's go.
1199
01:13:16,688 --> 01:13:19,942
- Whoa! I'm not good at this!
- Yes, yes you are.
1200
01:13:25,656 --> 01:13:32,621
I'll have a Blue Christmas without you.
1201
01:13:33,330 --> 01:13:34,540
We miss you, Santa.
1202
01:13:34,623 --> 01:13:41,380
I'll be so blue
just thinking about you.
1203
01:13:41,463 --> 01:13:43,841
Candy just doesn't taste the same
without you, Santa.
1204
01:13:43,924 --> 01:13:48,512
Decorations of red.
1205
01:13:48,595 --> 01:13:53,058
On a green Christmas tree.
1206
01:13:53,559 --> 01:13:57,229
Won't be the same, dear.
1207
01:13:57,312 --> 01:13:59,773
If you're not here with me.
1208
01:13:59,857 --> 01:14:02,609
Just come back, we got
the milk and cookies for you, Santa.
1209
01:14:02,693 --> 01:14:07,239
And when those blue memories start calling.
1210
01:14:07,322 --> 01:14:09,658
Snowball fights, the Coco.
All the fun.
1211
01:14:09,741 --> 01:14:11,326
You'll be...
1212
01:14:11,410 --> 01:14:13,245
Santa's back!
1213
01:14:14,705 --> 01:14:15,706
Ooh!
1214
01:14:16,957 --> 01:14:20,127
My children are home!
1215
01:14:21,670 --> 01:14:25,132
I missed you!
Oh, my goodness!
1216
01:14:25,215 --> 01:14:28,177
You did it, Noelle. Polly!
1217
01:14:28,719 --> 01:14:30,053
Uh...
1218
01:14:31,221 --> 01:14:36,476
I... I know I let you all down,
1219
01:14:37,853 --> 01:14:40,314
but while I was away, I...
1220
01:14:41,398 --> 01:14:43,567
I learned what it takes to be Santa.
1221
01:14:44,109 --> 01:14:46,695
It's about understanding people,
and, uh...
1222
01:14:48,030 --> 01:14:51,450
and really listening
to what they have to say.
1223
01:14:51,533 --> 01:14:52,534
And, um...
1224
01:14:54,786 --> 01:14:56,914
And just making everyone feel jolly.
1225
01:14:58,665 --> 01:15:03,212
Which is why I know that we have
a real Santa right here in the Pole.
1226
01:15:03,295 --> 01:15:04,296
Yes!
1227
01:15:07,674 --> 01:15:09,384
My sister, Noelle.
1228
01:15:09,468 --> 01:15:11,053
- What?
- What did he say?
1229
01:15:11,136 --> 01:15:12,304
Did he say "Noelle?"
1230
01:15:16,225 --> 01:15:18,977
Nick. I appreciate the gesture,
but what are you doing?
1231
01:15:19,061 --> 01:15:20,729
That's why I came home,
you know.
1232
01:15:20,812 --> 01:15:22,773
The minute I saw you with those kids,
I knew.
1233
01:15:22,856 --> 01:15:25,859
No. Okay. Maybe I inherited a couple
of Dad's powers,
1234
01:15:25,943 --> 01:15:28,028
- but what...
- You have The Twinkle, Ellie.
1235
01:15:28,111 --> 01:15:30,864
A girl?
Santa's not a girl!
1236
01:15:31,740 --> 01:15:32,741
Whoa!
1237
01:15:36,954 --> 01:15:40,582
Silent... night!
1238
01:15:46,922 --> 01:15:49,174
I rechecked the Christmas covenant.
1239
01:15:49,758 --> 01:15:54,054
And it turns out there's nothing there
that says a woman can't be Santa.
1240
01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:55,806
See?
1241
01:15:56,306 --> 01:16:00,686
It's just a tradition we've been
blindly following for thousands of years.
1242
01:16:01,019 --> 01:16:03,522
- These things happen.
- Oh, man!
1243
01:16:03,605 --> 01:16:08,026
The question is,
what really makes a Santa?
1244
01:16:08,110 --> 01:16:13,824
Ultimately, the one thing all Santas share
is the ability to inspire us
1245
01:16:13,907 --> 01:16:15,784
with the Christmas spirit.
1246
01:16:17,494 --> 01:16:20,539
Noelle, can you inspire us?
1247
01:16:20,998 --> 01:16:22,791
What does Christmas mean to you?
1248
01:16:41,435 --> 01:16:44,313
I used to think Christmas
was the best day of the year.
1249
01:16:44,396 --> 01:16:46,315
Presents and caroling.
1250
01:16:48,275 --> 01:16:51,028
But I met people for whom
it isn't the best day
1251
01:16:51,111 --> 01:16:56,533
because it reminds them they don't have
enough food to eat or a place to live.
1252
01:16:56,909 --> 01:16:58,869
Or maybe even someone
to share the day with.
1253
01:17:00,329 --> 01:17:02,247
And it got me thinking.
1254
01:17:03,290 --> 01:17:06,210
For thousands of years,
we've jingled bells and delivered toys,
1255
01:17:06,293 --> 01:17:10,422
and the world just gets more awful
and miserable. So what's the point?
1256
01:17:13,133 --> 01:17:18,180
But I also met a girl at a shelter
who drew these beautiful pictures,
1257
01:17:18,263 --> 01:17:21,141
and her Christmas wish wasn't for herself.
1258
01:17:21,225 --> 01:17:24,978
It was for her mother
to be able to find a job.
1259
01:17:25,771 --> 01:17:27,856
And I met a woman at a marketplace
1260
01:17:27,940 --> 01:17:31,318
who worked so hard to fill Christmas
with fun and music,
1261
01:17:31,401 --> 01:17:34,154
even though she knew she might not have
anyone to spend it with.
1262
01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:40,994
And I met this sweet, wonderful boy
who has this big heart.
1263
01:17:41,078 --> 01:17:42,496
And his father
1264
01:17:42,579 --> 01:17:45,958
who doesn't even believe in Christmas,
but made sure we could be home for it.
1265
01:17:49,169 --> 01:17:54,591
We have this list of nice people
from Hong Kong to Houston
1266
01:17:54,675 --> 01:17:56,635
doing wonderful, selfless things.
1267
01:17:59,513 --> 01:18:02,432
And I know Christmas
can't solve all our problems.
1268
01:18:04,601 --> 01:18:05,727
But it gives us hope.
1269
01:18:07,396 --> 01:18:09,314
It inspires us to be nice.
1270
01:18:09,940 --> 01:18:11,859
That might not seem like much, but...
1271
01:18:13,861 --> 01:18:16,572
when someone's sad or just lonely,
1272
01:18:17,322 --> 01:18:19,157
it can be the biggest thing in the world.
1273
01:18:20,701 --> 01:18:23,245
And presents are part of it.
1274
01:18:23,662 --> 01:18:25,789
I like presents as much as anybody.
1275
01:18:28,500 --> 01:18:29,501
Okay, more.
1276
01:18:31,128 --> 01:18:32,379
Oh, yeah, that's true.
1277
01:18:33,547 --> 01:18:37,134
But now, I think it's not just about
the presents we get.
1278
01:18:37,217 --> 01:18:39,261
It's about the presents we give.
1279
01:18:40,470 --> 01:18:42,598
The presents of love and understanding.
1280
01:18:51,982 --> 01:18:53,150
And also, iPads.
1281
01:18:58,238 --> 01:18:59,364
My little girl.
1282
01:19:01,116 --> 01:19:02,951
Looks like we got a Santa, guys!
1283
01:19:03,035 --> 01:19:05,037
Yeah, finally!
1284
01:19:13,921 --> 01:19:17,799
Ho, ho, ho.
1285
01:19:18,133 --> 01:19:22,179
If a child wakes up, try to coax them
gently back to sleep.
1286
01:19:41,448 --> 01:19:45,953
I want everyone
to double-check everything.
1287
01:19:46,495 --> 01:19:47,496
Mother.
1288
01:19:49,748 --> 01:19:50,749
Um...
1289
01:19:51,500 --> 01:19:53,460
I'm not sure about this.
1290
01:19:54,962 --> 01:19:58,632
You know how it works.
It fits you when you fit it.
1291
01:20:01,093 --> 01:20:03,679
Sweetie, you have nothing
to be nervous about.
1292
01:20:03,762 --> 01:20:06,515
Um, son,
why don't we go check the reindeer?
1293
01:20:06,598 --> 01:20:07,891
The reindeer?
They have ticks.
1294
01:20:07,975 --> 01:20:09,202
- That's... Come on.
- It's not...
1295
01:20:09,226 --> 01:20:10,227
- Let's just go.
- No.
1296
01:20:10,310 --> 01:20:11,311
Come on. Go.
1297
01:20:16,066 --> 01:20:19,903
What're you doing? You know
Santa has to fly solo on Christmas Eve.
1298
01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:23,699
Force of habit.
Once a nanny, always a nanny.
1299
01:20:23,782 --> 01:20:25,200
Elf Polly.
1300
01:20:25,742 --> 01:20:26,743
Yes?
1301
01:20:27,953 --> 01:20:29,621
I don't know if I'm ready, Polly.
1302
01:20:31,665 --> 01:20:34,960
You know what I'm really scared of?
Some kid's gonna wake up, look at me,
1303
01:20:35,043 --> 01:20:38,213
and say, "You're not Santa."
1304
01:20:40,215 --> 01:20:43,385
From the first moment
that I held you in my arms,
1305
01:20:44,219 --> 01:20:47,890
I could see something in your eyes,
and I said to myself,
1306
01:20:48,765 --> 01:20:50,893
"This girl has The Twinkle."
1307
01:20:54,563 --> 01:20:55,814
You're ready.
1308
01:20:57,649 --> 01:20:58,650
Oh!
1309
01:20:59,985 --> 01:21:01,570
Pull yourself together.
1310
01:21:19,254 --> 01:21:21,173
Wait. Someone's missing.
1311
01:21:32,100 --> 01:21:34,561
Dude, this is supposed to be our song,
come on!
1312
01:21:43,237 --> 01:21:45,572
Okay, Snowy.
I need all the help I can get.
1313
01:21:46,031 --> 01:21:47,366
You're my guy, right?
1314
01:21:49,159 --> 01:21:50,160
Fly straight?
1315
01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:03,382
You're facing the wrong way.
1316
01:22:05,592 --> 01:22:07,261
I'm really glad it's not me.
1317
01:22:19,356 --> 01:22:20,357
On Snowcone!
1318
01:22:49,803 --> 01:22:51,305
Puffins, scatter!
1319
01:23:14,661 --> 01:23:17,372
No! Snowy!
Snow...
1320
01:23:23,754 --> 01:23:24,922
All right.
1321
01:23:29,092 --> 01:23:31,178
We wish you a merry Christmas
We...
1322
01:24:13,887 --> 01:24:14,972
Did we miss Greece?
1323
01:24:48,422 --> 01:24:49,840
We're Jewish.
1324
01:25:10,777 --> 01:25:12,070
I'm sorry, Dad.
1325
01:26:17,845 --> 01:26:21,223
No, no, no, no.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. Go back to sleep.
1326
01:26:21,765 --> 01:26:23,284
- Seriously. Go back to... Oh!
- Ow!
1327
01:26:23,308 --> 01:26:25,435
Ma'am, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
1328
01:26:25,519 --> 01:26:28,647
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
No. Go back to sleep!
1329
01:26:35,779 --> 01:26:36,780
Hi.
1330
01:26:40,492 --> 01:26:44,246
She says, "Merry Christmas, Santa."
1331
01:26:46,123 --> 01:26:47,207
Santa?
1332
01:26:51,211 --> 01:26:52,629
Thank you, Michelle.
1333
01:26:53,881 --> 01:26:55,215
I needed that.
1334
01:26:56,133 --> 01:26:59,136
Now you go to sleep.
Okay?
1335
01:27:05,350 --> 01:27:07,936
- Merry Christmas, Santa.
- Merry Christmas.
1336
01:27:08,020 --> 01:27:09,605
Merry Christmas, Santa.
1337
01:27:10,147 --> 01:27:11,481
Merry Christmas.
1338
01:27:12,316 --> 01:27:14,026
Merry Christmas.
1339
01:27:14,109 --> 01:27:16,236
Go to sleep.
You go to sleep.
1340
01:27:46,642 --> 01:27:49,353
Sometimes, all you need
is a nice word from a friend
1341
01:27:49,436 --> 01:27:51,772
to make you feel comfortable
in your own boots.
1342
01:27:52,564 --> 01:27:55,442
But once that happened,
I was ready to go to work.
1343
01:27:56,693 --> 01:27:57,861
I went back to Greece,
1344
01:27:58,445 --> 01:28:01,198
and visited a few other places I'd missed,
1345
01:28:01,281 --> 01:28:04,952
and then I made sure to keep a promise
I'd made to Alex.
1346
01:28:10,123 --> 01:28:11,708
Oh, wow.
1347
01:28:12,793 --> 01:28:13,919
Your stop, I believe.
1348
01:28:14,002 --> 01:28:17,673
Yeah. Aren't you supposed to bring Alex
a Christmas present or something?
1349
01:28:18,340 --> 01:28:21,051
I did. He's sitting right next to me.
1350
01:28:21,969 --> 01:28:23,595
I don't know if this is a great idea.
1351
01:28:23,679 --> 01:28:25,848
I don't want my ex
and her husband to feel weird.
1352
01:28:26,765 --> 01:28:29,643
Traditions change. Right?
1353
01:28:32,104 --> 01:28:33,355
The new ones are scary.
1354
01:28:34,773 --> 01:28:35,983
But they might be great.
1355
01:28:36,692 --> 01:28:38,861
And if you know
what Christmas means to you,
1356
01:28:39,486 --> 01:28:41,280
the tradition's just the wrapping.
1357
01:28:43,031 --> 01:28:45,284
Christmas means spending time with Alex.
1358
01:28:47,119 --> 01:28:48,620
There you go.
1359
01:28:48,704 --> 01:28:50,956
That's jolly! Okay!
Now get in there.
1360
01:28:51,039 --> 01:28:52,833
I'm serious. You get one ride. Get out.
1361
01:28:52,916 --> 01:28:54,042
- Go.
- Okay.
1362
01:28:54,126 --> 01:28:56,461
- Very busy. Very busy woman.
- Pushy Santa.
1363
01:28:56,879 --> 01:28:58,463
So, will I see you again?
1364
01:29:00,048 --> 01:29:01,633
Every December 24th.
1365
01:29:04,261 --> 01:29:05,596
I don't know what that is.
1366
01:29:05,679 --> 01:29:07,931
It's what you do when you think
someone's awesome.
1367
01:29:08,223 --> 01:29:10,601
Aw.
Well...
1368
01:29:13,353 --> 01:29:14,855
- All right.
- Oh, right.
1369
01:29:15,355 --> 01:29:16,523
Got it.
1370
01:29:17,024 --> 01:29:18,066
Okay.
1371
01:29:18,567 --> 01:29:20,444
On Snowcone!
1372
01:29:22,696 --> 01:29:25,490
Merry Christmas!
1373
01:29:25,574 --> 01:29:27,201
Man, that's fun to say!
1374
01:29:27,659 --> 01:29:30,787
I was so happy that Jake
got to see Alex for Christmas.
1375
01:29:30,871 --> 01:29:32,289
- Merry Christmas!
- Dad!
1376
01:29:35,334 --> 01:29:36,335
I knew you'd come.
1377
01:29:37,961 --> 01:29:39,922
And Helen finally got her vacation.
1378
01:29:45,802 --> 01:29:47,282
And when Michelle and her mom
1379
01:29:47,346 --> 01:29:49,932
woke up the next morning,
they found a present under the tree
1380
01:29:50,015 --> 01:29:51,975
with a job listing
at a school for the deaf.
1381
01:29:52,059 --> 01:29:54,144
Oh, and an iPad. Obviously.
1382
01:29:57,231 --> 01:30:00,943
Dad always said you never forget
your first Christmas as Santa.
1383
01:30:01,026 --> 01:30:02,277
Okay, he said it to Nick,
1384
01:30:02,361 --> 01:30:05,030
but I overheard it,
and oh, my garland, was he right!
1385
01:30:05,656 --> 01:30:07,491
I hoped he'd be proud of me.
1386
01:30:07,574 --> 01:30:12,246
And I hoped everyone at home had
come around to the idea of a girl Santa.
1387
01:30:16,375 --> 01:30:18,085
Look, Santa's back!
1388
01:30:18,252 --> 01:30:20,420
Turns out, I didn't have to worry.
1389
01:30:20,504 --> 01:30:21,630
Santa Noelle!
1390
01:30:21,713 --> 01:30:24,091
Merry Christmas, Santa Noelle!
1391
01:30:28,470 --> 01:30:31,265
Well, guess who came to town!
1392
01:30:33,684 --> 01:30:36,311
- Namaste, sis.
- Um,Namaste.
1393
01:30:37,104 --> 01:30:38,605
Congratulations, Santa.
1394
01:30:39,022 --> 01:30:42,067
Now that I was the 24th Kringle
to wear the red hat,
1395
01:30:43,318 --> 01:30:46,029
I had a couple small changes
I wanted to make.
1396
01:30:47,573 --> 01:30:49,783
We opened the first yoga studio
in the Pole.
1397
01:30:49,867 --> 01:30:51,827
Sorry.
1398
01:30:51,910 --> 01:30:53,954
I made Polly the first female elder elf.
1399
01:30:54,037 --> 01:30:58,000
Hey! Get out of my garden,
now! Go!
1400
01:30:58,083 --> 01:30:59,459
Which I slightly regret.
1401
01:30:59,543 --> 01:31:02,171
These are high-intensity
infrared Santa goggles
1402
01:31:02,254 --> 01:31:04,840
which allow you to detect any lasers
between you and a tree.
1403
01:31:04,923 --> 01:31:08,343
Very impressive. Have we come up with
anything to deal with big, mean dogs?
1404
01:31:08,427 --> 01:31:09,678
Just this bone.
1405
01:31:09,761 --> 01:31:11,054
Okay.
Keep working.
1406
01:31:11,138 --> 01:31:15,142
And as for me,
I mean, I'm Santa. It's great!
1407
01:31:15,517 --> 01:31:17,186
- Keep it coming.
- Thanks, Santa.
1408
01:31:17,269 --> 01:31:18,770
Thank you very much.
1409
01:31:18,854 --> 01:31:20,981
Okay, a letter from
Jake and Alex, everybody.
1410
01:31:21,064 --> 01:31:23,066
Alex is into music now,
1411
01:31:23,150 --> 01:31:25,402
so a slow cooker is out
and drum kit is in.
1412
01:31:25,485 --> 01:31:28,405
And throw in a pair of noise-cancelling
headphones for dad. Great.
1413
01:31:32,576 --> 01:31:33,994
When I was a little girl,
1414
01:31:34,077 --> 01:31:36,288
Christmas Eve was always
the best night of the year.
1415
01:31:37,915 --> 01:31:40,292
But this time,
it was better than ever.
1416
01:31:41,627 --> 01:31:43,837
Because instead of getting the presents,
1417
01:31:44,421 --> 01:31:46,089
I was giving them.
