Kelly!

Kelly!

Kelly!

Kelly, where are you?
We're late.

How do little sisters
know the exact worst time to disappear?

Hmm.

Tell me you haven't been
in my room this whole time.

Well, not forever.

Didn't you hear me calling
for you? We're late.

The Charity Christmas Ball
starts in, like, five minutes.

All our friends and family
are already there. Come on.

Small person not next to me.

Kelly?

Come on.

Wow. Looks like
someone's got the Christmas spirit.

This isn't Christmas.

Really? Because the calendar
says December 24th, Christmas Eve.

And pretty much everyone we know is at
the Charity Christmas Ball,

where we need to be.

I don't want to go to the Ball.

I want to do what we do
every Christmas Eve.

I want to stay home,
and make cookies, and drink cocoa,

and sing carols
and open a special present.

That's what we do,
and I'm staying here until we do it.

O.K. I know you miss what we usually do,
but look what we get instead.

We'll go to a big party,
spend time with our friends and family,

and support
a really good cause.

The Ball will raise money
for a hospital.

It's Christmas.

I hate Christmas!

I see. Hmm.

You know what?
I think it's O.K. if we run a little late.

I wanna show you something.

That's your snow globe.
You said I wasn't allowed to touch it.

Well,
this is a special occasion.

Go on.

There's a story
behind this snow globe.

There is?

A story about
the beauty of Christmas,

and how one girl discovered
it many, many years ago.

Eden Starling was the most famous singing star

in Victorian England.

She was beautiful,

talented...

Ugh!

And incredibly full of herself.

I hate Christmas!

Hey, that's what I said.

Really?

Hmm. Must be a coincidence.

Singing those insipid little
carols every year.

I am a classically trained songstress.

I perform opera, Chuzzlewit.

Opera.

Where's my tea and crumpets?

There's supposed to be a tray
of tea and crumpets right here.

And where's Catherine?

Catherine! Catherine!

- Catherine!
- Catherine!

- Freddy...
- So...

- When are you going...
- To ask her?

Whoa!

Ann, Nan, ask who?

Come now, Freddy.
We all know you want to ask Catherine out on a date.

Whoa!

Ah!

If you want to ask her out,

do it now, before we leave
for Christmas holidays.

Otherwise, out of sight...
Poof! Out of mind.

You think so?

I know so.

All right. I'm really
going to do it.

I'm really going to do it.

I'm going to ask...

Catherine!

Oh!

Hello, Eden.

Hello, Chuzzie.

It's Chuzzlewit.

You know he hates Chuzzie.

And have you seen these?

Oh, good, your crumpets.

I told the stagehands
to get them for you.

Well, they didn't.
I had to ask them.

I had to talk
to a stagehand.

And look, they put
on too much butter.

It's pooling, pooling, Catherine.

That's why it's your job
to be there with my crumpets,

so they get just enough
butter, and...

Excuse me?

My job is Gad's Hill Theater
costume designer,

not crumpet butterizer.

I do that for you
because you're my friend.

But still, have a look
at them, they're pooling.

Eden, I know you feel better when I'm
there to watch you perform,

but I couldn't tonight.

Don't worry. I know
you were brilliant as always.

I don't need you to tell me
I was brilliant, I know I was brilliant.

But as a costume designer,
I thought you might want to do your job,

and see the dress
you made on stage.

I understand.

So, what was so important

that you couldn't come upstairs?

Look around you, Eden.
Look at the tree, it's Christmas Eve.

We wanted to celebrate a
little before we all go off on holiday.

Holiday? Who said anything
about a holiday?

- Excuse me?
- What?

- No holiday?
- No!

No holiday?

But it's...

Christmas!

I'm aware it's Christmas,

which means there's only
two weeks before you will get

the privilege of being
in Eden Starling's new show.

You should be begging
to rehearse.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

This is an outrage!

Eden, we can't work
on Christmas.

We have people coming over.

There's a turkey to stuff.

And pies to bake.

Oh, we can't be here.

Eden, please reconsider,
I beg of you.

You don't want to work
on Christmas?

You're not dedicated
enough to this theater?

Fine, stay home.

But if you do, don't bother
coming back.

Ever.

What?

You need to talk to Eden.

Please, you've known her forever.

She listens to you.

Eden doesn't make a move
without talking to you.

You're the only one
who can change her mind

without getting us all fired, right?

Right.
Keep your Christmas plans.

O.K., seriously, Eden,
you can't...

"Eden doesn't make a move
without talking to you."

Eden...

What, they all think

I'm wrapped around
your little finger?

I'm the star.

You're asking them
to give up Christmas.

They have plans. I have plans.

Bigger plans than my next show?

Yes. I'm leaving town tomorrow
and going home.

My whole family will be there
for Christmas dinner this year.

That hasn't happened
since we were kids.

You of all people should know

how important that is to me.

You know what should be
important to you? Me.

When I was discovered,
I could have had

any costume designer
in London for my company,

but I insisted on you,
my oldest friend.

I did that.

I know you did, and...

And you don't care.

But I expect that when push
comes to shove,

I know only one person
who's truly there for me.

Me.

It's like Aunt Marie
always said,

"In a selfish world,
the selfish succeed."

It's not a selfish world.

And do you really
want to listen to what Aunt Marie said?

My Aunt Marie was brilliant.

If it weren't for her,
I wouldn't be here right now,

and neither would you.

But if you can't appreciate that,

maybe you shouldn't work here anymore.

Tell me you're not threatening
to fire me.

I've seen you backstage
sewing things

that aren't for the show.

I guess working
at the top theater in London

isn't enough for you.

You had to pick up something
on the side.

What? No, that's not what
you think.

Prove it, and show some dedication.

Take down the trees,
stop the carols,

and get ready to work tonight, tomorrow,
and all through the week.

Anyone complains,
anyone goes home,

anyone breathes one word
about Christmas, they're out!

Including you.

Does everyone understand?

- Yes.
- We...

- Understand.
- Oui, oui.

What?

You have no idea
how sad it makes me to see you like this.

Merry Christmas, Eden.

I said not to mention
that word.

That is the last
time I want to hear it!

Christmas? Bah, humbug!

Eden's mean.

Oh, you think so?

I guess she can come off
as kind of mean, but...

No, she is mean.

O.K., if that's how you see it.

So, that night...

Wait!

It's just you usually tell
me stories about nice girls,

girls who are good to everyone.

Well, that's true.
Eden's someone who's making a lot of mistakes.

But sometimes we can learn from people
who make mistakes, don't you think?

Like when you left your shoes out in the
kitchen and tripped over them,

I learned not to do that.

Exactly.

And you
were carrying spaghetti,

and it went everywhere!

All over the floor
and on the walls...

Uh-huh. I remember.

And in your hair, and, remember,

one piece hung
right down in your face.

And when you breathed in,

it almost went
up your nose, and...

O.K., I remember.
Can we get back to the story now?

I don't know.
Maybe I'm not all done learning yet.

Kelly...

O.K., we can get back
to the story.

Thank you.

So, they rehearsed
all that evening.

And that night,
while Eden was asleep...

Oh!

Who's there?

Eden...

Aunt Marie?

Yes, my darling.
It is I.

Whoa!

Don't just sit there
gaping, child.

Didn't I raise you
with any manners?

When your aunt's ghost
comes to visit

and gets tripped up
in her chains,

you help her.

Of course. I...
I must've forgotten.

Oh!

Much better.

Now, child, walk with me.

Mmm. Perhaps I'm
better served standing.

I think you'd have
an easier time

if you took off
some of your jewelry.

No, Eden, these chains
don't ever come off.

They're the chains
I formed in life.

Chains of selfishness.

But you always said
selfishness is good.

"In a selfish world,
the selfish succeed."

You still say that,
after all these years?

I suppose
I should be flattered.

You really did care for me.

Well, of course, Aunt Marie.
You raised me.

Like a true daughter.

And you've become
everything I dreamed.

Oh, thank you.

Which is terrible!

So tonight,
I want you to change.

You want me to what?

Change, child, change.

And not just your nightgown,

though with the money you make, you
really could do so much better.

I want you to change
your life, Eden.

Forget everything I told you.

It is not a selfish world.

That was my excuse
for not having the talent

to become a star myself.

But when I see
what it did to you,

when I see how wrong I was...

Oh, Eden, oh...

You're not my Aunt Marie.
You're not even a ghost at all.

Not a ghost?

I am floating two feet
off the ground.

How much ghostlier
do you want me to be?

Stop that!
What are you doing?

So, what's holding you up,
hmm? Wires?

Whoa!

Whatever it is,
it's a good trick.

This is the last time
I visit you from beyond,

I can promise you that.

The real Aunt Marie
would never say she was wrong.

She raised me perfectly
to be a star.

I raised you to be
a perfectly selfish ninny!

But now, I have the chance to
make it right.

I'm sending you
three spirits tonight.

Listen to them, Eden.

If you're lucky,
they'll help you change your life

before you end up like me.

Now!

And you can tell everyone
at the Gad's Hill who sent you here

that they're all fired.

Chuzzlewit?

But what happened to...

Strange.

Chuzzlewit. Chuzzlewit,
it's not morning.

Oh, that's it, Chuzzlewit,
you're going outside.

Oh, I had the strangest dream
last night.

Really? I'd love to hear
all about it.

Who are you?

Why, the Spirit of Christmas
Past, of course.

Didn't your Aunt Marie
tell you I was coming?

Ha-ha!

My Aunt Marie?

Oh, you have a kitty!

Ooh, you are just
the cutest thing.

Is this another nightmare?

No, silly.
I've come to take you to...

Where did I put that note?

No, no.

Ah! A-ha!

To your girlhood Christmas.

What fun!

My girlhood?

Oh, I don't think
that's such a good...

Toodle-oo and don't be slow.

It's off to your Christmas
past we go!

Off we go then.

Chuzzlewit?

Oh! The kitty-witty's afraid

we're not gonna take him.

Come on, kitty-witty,
it's O.K. Just hold on.

I don't think
that's what he is trying to...

O.K., so, I didn't want
to say anything at first,

but I have to tell you,

I'm a huge fan of yours!

Maybe the hugest.
And I just love your voice,

especially when you sing
Christmas carols.

Oh, I was like...
I mean... It was like...

Heavenly chimes, that's what it is.

Oh, and it's such
an honor to... Oh!

I'm sorry. Is it odd for you
that I'm such a huge fan?

That's not the part
that's odd for me.

- Hold on.
- What? Why?

Oh! I say,
something's not right.

We were supposed
to get here at Christmas.

Oh! I must've miscalibrated.

No. This is right.

It is? But it can't be.

There's no tree, no stockings,
no presents, no decorations...

Oh...

You poor thing.

Oh, poor little
kitty-witty boom!

Who's the kitty-witty?

Did you get a boo-boo?

You know, we can't eat
or even touch food

when we travel to other times,
kitty-witty bear.

And no one can see us
or hear us when we talk, O.K.?

Eden?

I'm all done, Aunt Marie.

Can I go over
to the Beadnells' house?

Of course not.
After dinner, we rehearse.

I know, but I thought we could
maybe make an exception today,

because it's Christmas.

They all said they'd really
love to see me there.

Catherine even said
it'd make her Christmas.

Make her Christmas?
Make her Christmas?

What about your Christmas?

More importantly,
what about your future?

You want to be a star,
don't you?

I do, but...

More than anything else
in the world?

Yes, but...

Then what Catherine

and the Beadnells want
doesn't matter.

What do I always tell you?

In a selfish world,
the selfish succeed.

That's right.

And if you want to succeed,

you must use every second
of your time selfishly.

Yes, Aunt Marie.

Good choice.
I'm proud of you.

Now go work your scales
until dinner's ready.

Wait.

Aunt Marie's making Eden
work on Christmas?

Well, every day.
But, yes, on Christmas, too.

- But that's not fair!
- It's not.

And there's nothing
Eden can do about it?

- Mmm.
- That's horrible!

Wait a minute.
I thought you said Eden was mean.

I did.

I mean, she was, but...

Maybe it's just tougher
to judge when you know the whole story.

Maybe.

Tell me what happened next.

O.K. So, Eden stayed
in her room

and practiced
her scales for an hour.

O.K., I know
it's devastatingly sad

that this is how
you're celebrating Christmas.

But I can't even tell you

what a thrill it is
to hear Eden Starling,

the early years.

I mean, am I lucky or what?

Wait, why did you stop?

You'll see.

Come on.

Woo!

Wee!

Oh, this is so much fun.

Did you do
this all the time?

As often as I could.

Eden!

I'm so glad you made it.

I can't believe I'm back here.

This was my favorite place
in the world.

I remember...

Oh, did I forget to mention
we float through walls?

Oopsy!

A party!

Ooh!

Gingerbread.
Ah, it's wonderful, isn't it?

Oh, look, there you are.

You put up my stocking.

They always did.

We always do.

And have you noticed
the pile of presents

under the tree?

I think there's more for you than for me

or Nell this year.

No, it's just
for Eden to taste.

Well?

Snickerdoodles.

Your favorite cookie.

Which makes you an expert.

What do you think?

Best I've ever tried.

Kiss-up.

Chuzzlewit.

I thought you said
they couldn't see us.

People can't.
Animals are more sensitive.

Boz, there's nothing there.

No more barking at shadows
or we'll put you outside.

Boz, no.

Here.

Catherine!

O Christmas Tree!

Because you sing
it so beautifully,

it made me think of you.

Catherine, thank you
so much. I love it.

But I couldn't bring
a gift for you or for your family.

Are you kidding?

You're here.
That's enough.

I really love it.

I'm really glad. Come on.

Boz!

That's it.
Out of the house with you.

O.K., everyone.
Gather round!

It's time for the show!

Ooh, a show! Come on!

Oh, it's not like
it's a real show.

It's just a little thing
we did every year.

Oh, those dresses
are stunning.

I know. She's been working
on them since June.

And Eden's been planning the arrangement
and choreography just as long.

"Just a little thing"?

Fine, so it was a big thing.

But it's still
just kids' stuff.

And now, presenting...

From Eden Starling
and Catherine Beadnell,

the future toast of London...

The greatest
Christmas pageant ever!

And you said
you didn't bring gifts for anyone.

What do you mean?
I didn't.

Your talent.

Look how happy
it made everyone.

Oh, I guess it did.

I never really thought
of it that way.

Performing has always
been about work and being a star.

Except then.

I'll get it.

Take me home. Now.

Why? We're having so much fun.

Now!

Where is Eden?

I didn't realize.

I should have left
when you told me to.

I had no idea.

She ruined the whole holiday.

Just stood there screaming
for what seemed like forever.

At me, at Catherine,
at the Beadnells... Oh, it was horrible.

That was my last
Christmas there.

Aunt Marie never left me alone
for a second after that.

I'm so sorry, Eden.

Don't be.
Aunt Marie was right.

I wasted time on those silly
Christmas pageants for the Beadnells.

After that,
I concentrated on myself.

And do you know what happened?

I made my Covent Garden
debut at thirteen.

Thirteen.

Don't you have someplace to go?

You're not even real, anyway.

I'm sure I'm just dreaming
all of this.

When I go back to bed,
you'll be gone.

Spirit?

See? It was a dream.

Chuzzlewit.

Chuzzlewit.

Why, hello.

Who are you,
and what are you doing in my room?

Why, I'm celebrating.
It's Christmas!

Was that a little loud?

Sorry about that.

Now, come on
and join the party.

Oh, but I'm being
terribly rude.

I am the Spirit of Christmas Present.

Some traveling music, please.

How dare you drag me
off like that?

Don't you have any idea
who I am?

Wait, but you said
we were going to Christmas present, right?

That's right.

And everyone's here to work.

And they're happy.
Look at them. See?

Working through Christmas
isn't such a hardship at all.

What is that, Eden?

You want us to work
for Christmas?

Oh, ho! That must have hurt.

No, it's fine. My kids love
that Papa isn't home today.

Whoops!

You're out. You're all
out of my theater.

That's priceless.

Priceless?

He's throwing tomatoes at me.

While juggling.

Oh, you could put
that in your act.

Oh, whose side are you on?

These people wouldn't be anywhere without
me. They owe me.

At least Freddy's happy.

What?
Working through Christmas?

Now he can ask...

Catherine out on a date.

As long as we clean up
before she gets back.

I don't think she'd like
us throwing tomatoes at her friend.

Hello, everyone. Did you...

We're sorry, Catherine.

See? Catherine understands gratitude.

She won't let you
get away with this.

What?

Shall we dance?

I'd love to.

That's it.
I want to leave.

Oh, what? Right now?

Now!

Oh... Oh, all right.

Oh!

This isn't my bedroom.
I told you to take me home.

Oh, I thought you said
you just wanted to leave.

You have to be more specific.

Oh, did I sit in something?

Feisty little thing,
aren't you?

Whoa!

She's a monster,
if you ask me.

To keep you away
from your family

after everything
we did for her.

She's not a monster.
She makes me crazy sometimes,

but then I remember
all the times she made me laugh,

and everything we did together.

My friend's still in there, Nell.

I can get mad at her,
but I can't hate her.

And look,
since I'm not racing home,

I don't have to drop off
my costumes and run.

I can stay
and see my other show.

Your other show?

I knew it! The ingratitude!

You are done
at the Gad's Hill. Done!

Can you believe that?

Oh, yes, she's very talented.

I'm sure she could do
a million shows.

I hope we can still
get a seat.

Oh, would you look at this?

I'd never expect
a Catherine Beadnell show

in a place like this.

Would you?

Of course not.
Don't you see?

She doesn't want me
to know about her little sideline,

so she made sure
they rehearsed here

where no one in the universe
would come.

Oh, you're devious,
Catherine Beadnell. Devious.

And what new actress is waiting for you
in here, Catherine? Hmm?

Anastasia Warbler,
Renata Trilby?

Cassandra...

Catherine! Catherine!

- Hello!
- Hi, Catherine!

Hello, everyone.

Catherine! Merry Christmas,
Catherine. Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Hello, Tammy.

Merry Christmas, Catherine.

Would you hug me, Catherine?

- I want a hug, too.
- All right.

Big group hug.

Thank you.

Ah, orphans.

Oh, you're right.
She is devious.

So, is everyone ready
for your Christmas chorale costumes?

Yay! Hurray!

I love mine.

Oh, don't worry.
I have one for everybody.

Catherine, did you get
to tell Eden Starling about us?

- Yes.
- Will she come see our show?

Will she, Catherine?
Will she?

I did tell Eden about you.

And she wanted me to tell you
that she's very sorry she can't come,

but she's so proud
of all of you.

And she personally wishes
each of you a Merry Christmas.

Hear that?
Eden Starling wishes me a Merry Christmas.

It must be so amazing
to hear her sing every day.

You're so lucky!

I am lucky.

But not because
I get to hear Eden sing.

Then why?

Because I get to hear you sing.

Now, come on, everyone.
People will be here soon.

Time to put on your costumes
and get ready for the show.

Yeah, let's go!

Eden was amazed by the way
those children came alive with Catherine.

And it wasn't just
that she brought them new clothes.

In fact, the clothes
were the least of it.

It was Catherine's attention.

The simple fact that she cared.

It got to Eden,
and she couldn't stop watching.

Thank you.
Thank you for this.

Oh, it's the least I can do.

Have you heard anymore
about the possible closing?

Only rumors.
But they don't sound good.

We can only wait and hope.

Closing? What is
she talking about?

Oh, the orphanage
doesn't have the funds to stay open.

Most likely
they'll close it before spring.

But if the orphanage
shuts down,

then what will happen
to the children?

Oh, they'll find their way,
I imagine.

Street urchins
have for centuries.

Of course, that's all a batch of humbug
to you, right?

Wonderful! Wonderful! Spot on!

That was amazing. Thank you.

I'm afraid I have to go.

Oh, no, you can't go.

But I'll see you all very soon.

- No...
- Don't go.

- Can't you just stay for a little while?
- Come on, Catherine.

- Please?
- You can stay, can't you?

I'd love to,
but I have to go back to work.

- No!
- No!

Oh, no!

Please don't go.

That's funny.

Almost sounds
like you changed your mind

about working
through Christmas.

Oh, not at all.

I'm just saying she could
take a slightly longer break

if she needed to.

Slightly.

I see.

Oh!

Would you look
at the time?

I'm dreadfully late
for another appointment.

So just take my sleeve.

Now?

Oh, I just thought

you'd need your beauty sleep

more than you'd need to watch
a bunch of singing children.

What was it
your aunt told me she said?

"In a selfish world,
the selfish succeed."

All right. Let's go.

Shh.

Hello, Eden.

Hello. You're the third spirit,
aren't you?

The Spirit
of Christmas Future.

Are you ready to come with me?

Mmm. I don't know. Will I like
what I'm going to see?

You might not.

But sometimes
we need to face things that frighten us.

It's how we grow.

No, I think
you should come, too.

Ready?

Mmm-hmm.

Why are there so many holes?

The future
isn't like the past.

Every choice you make
alters what will happen next.

But as of this moment, we'll find your
most likely future right here.

It's so cold.

None of the other ones
were cold like this.

This future
starts with a cold choice.

After making everyone
at the Gad's Hill work,

you found out they came
in a few minutes late on Christmas day.

So, you fired them all.

Of course I did.

That's not a cold choice,
it's simple consequence.

I warned them
that would happen.

Oh, you did, yes.

Unfortunately,
their replacements didn't quite work out

the way you'd hoped.

Like the hypnotist.

And when you hear
the word "Brava,"

you'll cluck like a chicken.

See?
I just can't be hypnotized.

Good luck tonight, though.

Brava! Brava! Brava!

And the trained dogs.

Enough!

Even if all that happened,
so what?

I have a public,
and they'd stand by me through anything.

Good. If that's true, you have nothing to
worry about from the future.

Oh, where's this?

Get him, Chuzzlewit. Get him.

That's not...

Is that me?

Go, Chuzzlewit! Go!

Oh, Chuzzlewit, I'm sorry.

That would have been
your Christmas dinner.

What is this?
A joke?

This can't be my future.

Too cold.

Ooh! Catherine Beadnell.

"Catherine Beadnell presents
a new fashion line for spring.

Come to her studio
in Grindstone Square

to see work from the premiere
designer in all of Europe."

Catherine.

Well, I haven't seen her in...

ages.

What? You haven't seen her
and she's a success?

Go! She can help you.

Catherine would never let
you live like this.

Grindstone Square... Mmm.

But she wouldn't be there
today, it's Christmas.

Still, what are the chances
of this flier sticking to my window?

It's almost like some kind
of sign.

It is a sign!

You sent her the flier,
didn't you?

Mmm.

Do it! Go to the studio
and see her.

Come on, Chuzzlewit.

Let's go visit an old friend.

Yes!

That's why you brought me
here, isn't it?

Oh! This is where
everything turns around.

I want to follow her.

Are you sure?

Yeah, of course I'm sure.

Let's not waste a second.

Very well, then.

Holiday? Who said anything
about a holiday?

But... But it's Christmas.

I'm aware it's Christmas.

Which means
there's only two weeks

before we show the new line
of the most popular label in London.

You should want
to work every day.

But if you're not dedicated enough...

Oh, I am. I promise.

I'm sorry I complained,
Miss Beadnell.

Good.

I don't understand.

She doesn't sound
like Catherine at all.

She sounds like...

Eden!

Catherine.

Looking good, Chuzzie.

I can't believe I found you
here at work on Christmas.

I thought you'd be home
with your family or...

Or celebrating somewhere.

I don't really celebrate
Christmas anymore.

I was a little soured
on the holiday when...

When was I soured on it again?

Oh! Yes!

When you fired me
because I came in late on Christmas day.

Uh-oh.

Oh, right... Um...

No, it's O.K.
You actually did me a favor.

You proved I'd been wrong
and you were right.

No. Oh, don't say it, Catherine.

Don't say it.

It is a selfish world.

And in a selfish world,
the selfish succeed.

I see.

Um, I'm not 100 percent sure
that's really true, actually.

Oh, I am.

I tried to be selfless.

I looked out for you.

I looked out for everyone
at the Gad's Hill.

I even tried to help out
one of the poorest orphanages in London.

Know what happened?

I fired you.

Which meant I had to scramble
for work.

I found something,
but it took me out of town for months.

Know what I found
when I got back?

No.

I found nothing.

That orphanage I was helping?

It closed down
while I was away.

I'd had no idea.

There was one little girl
I was ready to take in myself.

Tammy!

Tammy!

But she was gone.

They all were.

Scattered out in the world
to try and fend for themselves.

You can imagine.

No. Not the children.

Oh, Catherine.

My point is,
I learned my lesson.

Caring hurt. So I stopped.

Now I just concentrate
on myself, and look!

I'm a star.

Just like you used to be.

Catherine, listen. Don't make
the same mistakes I made.

You're better than that.

Don't be like me.

Do you hear me, Catherine?

Catherine!

So, you can't help me?

I'm done helping people, Eden.

It never works.

Oh, I see.

I'm... I'm sorry
I bothered you.

Merry Christmas, Catherine.

Eden.

Here, it's cold out there.

Oh, I've got it. I've got it.

Ah!

I've got it.

And it's completely useless.

I guess that's the way
with us, Chuzzlewit, isn't it?

Chuzzlewit?

Chuzzlewit.

That's it? That's all you have
to say?

How did we come to this, Chuzzlewit?

I wish...

Oh, it doesn't matter
what I wish.

Come on, Chuzzlewit.

No!

That can't be it!

This can't be your life.

This can't be my life!

There has to be some mistake,

there has to be a way
to change things.

That chance passed long ago.

As of now, this is the road
of your future.

But it can't be!

It's too horrible.

I don't want to live this life.

I want to change.

Oh, please.

Please just give me the chance.

I want to change.

I don't want this.
Please, please.

Just give me another chance.

Please!

It's morning!

Good day, sir.
Merry Christmas.

It's Christmas morning.

It's Christmas morning!

Oh! Oh!
It hasn't happened yet!

Oh! Oh, quick!
The portals! Chuzzlewit! Oh!

All those portals
to the future, we can choose a new one.

A new portal, yes.

We don't have to make
the same mistakes!

We can change everything!

Oh, yes!

Chuzzlewit, we can...

Help people.

Help people, yes.

We can make
this the best Christmas ever!

Wonderful, Chuzzlewit.

Oh! We have to go shopping!

Can't do shopping,
I'm not dressed.

Oh, it's Christmas.
The stores are all closed.

Chuzzlewit, what do we do?

Yes. We'll go shopping
right here.

Come on, Chuzzlewit,
let's do it.

Let's go Christmas shopping.

Stop! Stop the rehearsal,
stop everything.

Whoa!

Please, don't fire us.
We're all here.

O.K., yes, maybe we're a couple of
minutes late, but...

Please, let us...

Keep our jobs.

No, it's O.K.! It's O.K.

I'm not here to fire anyone.

It's Christmas.

I'm here to send you home
to your families!

But you said...

Well, forget what I said.
I was crazy, I was wrong!

Go! Go!

I mean, wait. Stop!

Come back. I have presents.

And look, a little elf, elf,
elf to help me deliver them.

I, of course, saved my shopping
for the last minute.

And, of course,
everything was closed today.

So I had to just grab
what I had, but...

Merry Christmas, Maurice.

Ann!

Nan. Careful!
Heavier than it looks.

Freddy.

What time is it? Cuckoo!

- Thank you, Eden.
- Merci.

Catherine,
I'm saving yours for later.

Oh, wait.
No, there's more, there's more. I forgot.

I found something else
in my house

that I really wanted
to give you.

Christmas bonuses!

Yes.
Because you're all so talented,

and it is truly an honor
and a pleasure to work with you.

Now, go have a holiday.

I'll see you in two weeks
when we open.

Merry Christmas!

Thank you.

Um, it was supposed
to be flowers.

I love them.

But I have one more thing
for you, a favor to ask.

Merry...

Christmas!

That was beautiful.
Thank you.

I was wrong about you, Eden.

You're one of the good ones.

Merci.

Merry Christmas.

Yes.

Yes!

What was that all about?

I guess he liked
his Christmas present.

Eden, I...

Catherine, I know for a fact

you've been working
on another show behind my back.

Please, let me explain.

And I think it's wonderful.

I want to go with you
to see the kids perform.

I understand I might
have a couple of fans at the orphanage.

You do!
But how do you know about the orphanage?

Maybe it came to me in a dream.

Come on. Let's hurry.

Wait.

Let's make our special guest
a surprise.

Yes!

That was amazing, everyone.

Thank you so much.

But we're not done quite yet.

I've brought you
a special Christmas present.

A special guest I thought
you might want to meet.

Special guest!

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Eden Starling!

Eden!

There you are!

Tammy.

You know my name.

I want a hug, too.

Of course, of course.

Catherine's told me
so much about you.

I feel like I know you all.

Oh, Elizabeth, Jacob, Edmund.

You were all incredible!

I'm so happy to be a part
of your Christmas.

Oh, and I have a special
present for you all.

I am going to personally
adopt this place.

Anything you need,
new furniture, toys, books...

Anything and everything.

I just want you to come
directly to me,

and I will make sure
you have it.

I want these children
to have the best.

Hurray!

I'm stunned.

There are no words.

This is the best Christmas ever!

God bless us, every one!

Yay!

You're incredible.

Where did all this come from?

You wouldn't believe me
if I told you.

Just trust that it had a lot
to do with you.

Thank you.

Thank you for giving me back
my friend.

Hurray!

Oh, your Christmas present.

Part one.

Eden!

They're the fastest horses
money can buy.

If we leave now,
I think we can make it

to your parent's house
in time for dinner.

That is, if it's O.K.
for me to tag along?

O.K.?

I'd love it if you came home
with me for Christmas.

Ladies.

Freddy! You're driving us?

It would be my greatest honor.

But first, sometime
when it's not Christmas

and we're not going off
to visit your family,

I was wondering if I might...

If I could have
the pleasure of...

That is... If I could have...

The honor of...

Freddy, are you asking me
on a date?

Yes?

I'd love it. Thank you.

Yes!

Thank you so much, Eden.

Wait, there's more.

Although, this is really
more my Christmas present.

I can't believe
you still have it.

I do. And from now on,

I'm keeping
it on my nightstand,

so I'll remember to hold
this feeling of Christmas in my heart

every day of the year.

And one day, I'll pass it down
to my children

and grandchildren
and my great grandchildren,

so they'll remember, too.

Thank you.

That's a perfect
Christmas present.

Oh! Chuzzlewit.

Chuzzlewit? Chuzzlewit?

Ahh.

Oh, Chuzzie.

This snow.

The carriage can't make it
through this weather.

Oh, no.

Do you see that?

I thought maybe it was one
of your magic tricks.

No, I've never seen anything
like that in my life.

I have.

It's amazing!

What?

But how?

Goodbye.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas.

- Goodbye!
- We'll see you soon.

Goodbye! Merry Christmas!

And did they get to the Beadnells' house
in time for dinner?

They did. And every year
after that,

they spent Christmas
the same way.

They helped others
in the morning,

then spent the evening
together with their families and friends.

- Barbie?
- Yes, Kelly.

That snow globe
that Catherine gave Eden,

the one that Eden
said she'd pass down to her children,

is that the same snow globe?

Are we related to Eden?

Did this story really happen?

Maybe.

But I do know one thing
for sure.

This is yours now.

Really?

For keeps?

For keeps,

so it can remind you
to keep the beauty

of Christmas in your heart

every day of the year.

Just like Eden.

Thanks, Barbie.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Kel.

O.K., so I'm at this crazy,
amazing charity Christmas Ball,

I'm looking everywhere
for my girls,

and you're still here?

Hey, Nikki. Sorry.
We're just running a little late.

But I think we're ready now.

Are we?

Yeah, we are.

Wait till you see the Ball,
it's so cool.

Everyone's dancing
and having so much fun,

and they're getting tons
of donations for the hospital.

You think maybe
I could give something?

I have some allowance saved up.

I think
that would be amazing, Kel.
