Original subtitles

'Twas the night before Christmas,

and all through the land,

not a creature was stirring.

Just a tiny... elf band.

Christmas Eve! It's finally here!

The best and the busiest night of the year.

Presents for everyone, that is the goal.

It's time to get ready to rock and roll!

Hey, can we go more upbeat?

It's the opening song!

That's more like it! I can dance along!

An oat milk latte! With extra cream.

That's us all set, then.

Hold on. Where's the team?

So, what are the bets?

What will happen this year?

- He'll get stuck in a chimney. - Or lose a reindeer.

I say a breakdown.

He'll lose his way.

The presents could fall out of the sleigh.

I'll go with a hat loss.

A rooftop fall.

Or Christmas might not happen at all.

It's the SOS Alarm!

Save old St. Nick!

One push does the trick.

Cup of tea, please, reindeer.

The alarm's for emergencies.

Not summoning us here.

Well, we haven't had a problem since... ages ago.

It was last year, St. Nick.

Come on. Let's go.

Poor Robin.

I'm sorry I can't come on the trip.

Well, you know you can't fly with that dreadful nose drip.

We're ready!

Keep warm, stay home and try to get better.

He gets the cold every year.

It's a last-minute letter.

Well, this has come late.

Now, let's see.

I better read it.

"Dear St. Nick."

Yep, that's me.

"I'm writing this letter to ask for a present."

Not a big frilly dress or a gold-gilded pheasant.

I'd so like a pet, I cannot deny.

A Mock Turtle, a Borogrove,

a Rocking-Horse Fly.

But my absolute favorite, which would be a catch,

is the frumiously fun and fast Bandersnatch!

I think I've been kind and good this year.

So, please, can you hurry and bring it here?

My home, Wonderland, is a long way to go.

But you're my very last hope. My mum said no.

"Love, The Princess of Hearts.

Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss."

A Bandersnatch? What an interesting wish.

I've heard about Bandersnatches.

They're really scary.

They're huge and they're fierce.

And incredibly hairy.

"Turn over the page for a Wonderland map."

Well... we'll need the Sat Nav for that.

Well, we've no time to go.

No way.

We're too big for a rabbit hole.

And it takes ages by sleigh.

What are you doing?

We're making a plan.

To take a detour to Wonderland.

But we don't have the time. It's too far away.

Every child needs a gift on Christmas Day.

That's not in my contract.

I'm not going there.

I've heard Wonderland's mad.

This isn't fair.

And there's a bad queen! I've read the book.

We could all lose our heads!

Let's have a look.

Wonderland.

"Wonder," that's with an "O."

No sign of an address.

But it can't be too far to go.

Ooh! Thank you so much.

Now, then, let's see.

"Detour to Wonderland.

Success probability:

Zero point zero, zero, zero... one."

Doesn't seem too bad. Might even be fun!

To the Princess's castle we'll fly first tonight.

Set course to Wonderland, reindeer, take flight!

Don't be silly, St. Nick.

St. Nick, are you mad?

Have you not heard of Alice?

The whole place is bad.

This Princess of Hearts deserves a gift.

We'll be there in a jiffy. It'll be swift.

We've so many chimneys to visit tonight.

To be risking it all for one girl is not right.

Reindeer, you're being overdramatic!

What could go wrong?

It will be... traumatic!

♪ Hang on, St. Nick

♪ The thought of goin' just makes us sick♪

♪ It's terribly scary and a little nightmary

♪ With a queen who says

♪ Off with their heads!

♪ It's an awful idea

♪ Not a place for us eight reindeer

♪ Dasher, Prancer, Dancer, Blitzen, Cupid, Comet

♪ Donder, Vixen

♪ It would feel so much safer

♪ Do us a favor

♪ And don't make us go

♪ Down that dark rabbit hole

♪ Don't you know that everything

♪ Won't go as planned?

♪ 'Cause they're all mad in Wonderland

♪ If you ever get there then you'll understand

♪ It's a topsy turvy world in Wonderland

♪ A rocking horse that can fly

♪ A Cheshire Cat who just grins

♪ A Bandersnatch who can bite

♪ You would be surprised

♪ Who'd want to go there?

♪ We don't want to know there

♪ We don't mean to strop

♪ But can we just miss that stop?

♪ The way they talk there is silly

♪ Chortle, frabjous and slithy

♪ Boojum, gimble and mimsy

♪ Makes us feel dizzy

♪ Don't you know that everything

♪ Won't go as planned?

♪ 'Cause they're all mad in Wonderland

♪ If you ever get there then you'll understand

♪ It's a topsy turvy world in Wonderland

♪ I got a letter from the Princess asking

♪ Is there something on my sleigh for her tonight?

♪ So we're going, reindeer Let's stop chatting

♪ And hold on tight

♪ We're in the business

♪ The business of Christmas

♪ Wherever you are we'll go the distance

♪ 'Cause it pays to be kind so please keep in mind

♪ Everybody's welcome and no one's left behind

♪ Deck the halls with tinsel and love

♪ Let the magic do what it does

♪ Tell someone you care just because

♪ I make the laws 'cause I'm Santa Claus

♪ Everybody needs a little Christmas cheer

♪ There's something in the atmosphere

♪ Everybody needs a little helping hand

♪ Let's bring the jingle bells to Wonderland♪

We won't leave her giftless at Christmas.

Let's go.

There's no changing his mind.

Let me hear you!

Ho, ho.

Back soon, Robin.

Cue sleigh sound!

Giddy-up, reindeer.

Up, up, off the ground.

Go, Dasher! Go, Dancer!

On, Prancer and Vixen.

Leap, Cupid! Soar, Donder!

Fly, Comet and Blitzen!

Wonderland, here we come!

The SOS Alarm! Dropped in the snow!

I'd better catch up.

Go, Robin! Go!

Well, it looks like today it's just you and me.

We've got tea for 200.

But just two for tea.

A forward roll, Mad Hatter?

Or some sumptuous jelly?

Looks delightful, March Hare.

And so wonderfully smelly.

What ingredients did you put in that nibble?

Just a sprinkle of wobble and a handful of wibble!

Ho, ho, ho, everyone.

I've brought a Christmas surprise!

Some fun festive crackers, and delicious mince pies!

Dodo, don't be silly!

You can't bring those here.

Hide them under the table, in case the Queen's...

near.

Horrible! Horrible!

It's the worst time of year.

Halt!

I smell something festive round here.

Your Royal Scariness! Come for some tea?

A dash of sugar? Lump of milk? One, two or three?

Be quiet, you oik, or I'll chop off your head.

My head. My head comes in handy.

So of course, enough said.

March Hare, what's going on?

What's hidden down there?

March who? Not a clue.

Jam sandwich? Candied pear?

Tinsel!

All sparkly and bright!

So cheerful and garish!

It's just not right.

And don't get me started on that terrible hat.

So unimaginative.

We just can't have that.

How many times do I have to say

there's to be no celebrating Christmas Day?

Agh!

Ho, ho, ho.

♪ Don't you know that everything

♪ Won't go as planned?

♪ 'Cause they're all mad in Wonderland

♪ If you ever get there then you'll understand

♪ It's a topsy turvy world in Wonderland♪

Sleigh entering Wonderland airspace.

Beware.

That was quicker than I thought. We're nearly there.

There's some strange-looking cumulus dead on the nose.

It looks fine, just a cloud.

If you say so.

Here goes.

And just as I thought, there was nothing to fear.

Reindeer, where are you?

St. Nick, we're back here!

Emergency! We're going down fast!

Just some light turbulence. I'm sure it won't last.

Didn't we tell you? Wonderland's mad!

That's more like it. That wasn't so bad.

Well, that was a ride.

It's left my head spinning.

I've got a horrible feeling this is just the beginning.

A busy day for Queenie.

Lopping off heads.

And imprisoning peasants.

It's time for my bed.

No more horrible glimpses of baubles and pies,

and everything festive that I despise.

I'll sleep straight through tomorrow.

Miss the whole day.

All that Christmas cheer, it's just so passé.

Right, first stop on the trip, task number one.

Pick out the right pressie.

This could be fun.

Well, that's definitely not it.

And this isn't right.

Come on, St. Nick. We don't have all night!

Thank you, Boots.

Boots? What a pleasant surprise!

A stowaway elf along for the ride?

Reindeer, it's just Boots, come to help old St. Nick.

That's just what we need. An elf keeping things slick.

We'll get this delivered and be on our way.

We have plenty more time before Christmas Day.

Whoa!

Haha! Don't worry. I've got this.

I'm not going. No way.

I chaperoned last year.

I'll do it. Okay.

I'm fine! I'm fine!

Whatever happens, don't make a sound.

Tell that to the orchestra!

That's just background.

Great.

Cheer up, Prancer. It could be much worse.

But, of course, reindeer first.

There's no stocking hung by the chimney with care.

No tree draped with tinsel. No treats by the stair.

No cookies, or milk.

Not one candy-cane stick.

Not even a carrot. This must be a trick.

How clumsy of me.

Boots, any good at repairs?

That crash may have caused a commotion upstairs.

What cheek. What nerve!

Who in wonder is that?

How dare he stand there in that red bobble hat?

I can't believe it. St. Nick?

Ta-da!

It's you!

Oops. Caught us.

I just popped down your flue.

Let's keep this between us. There's a reason I've come.

I'm here for the Princess.

You must be...

Her mum?

That didn't go down well.

Was it something I said?

Just back away slowly.

Off with their heads!

Just a tick. We can't leave.

We must find the Princess.

- Hahaha! - Trust us to get into a mess.

- You know who that is? - Someone who's very cross?

It's the bad Queen of Wonderland.

The head-chopping boss.

This can't be her bedroom.

It must be somewhere round here.

That bearded buffoon and his mimsy reindeer.

All red rosy cheeks and happy and jolly.

"Merry Christmas to you." What an absolute wally.

Hmph!

What's that little thing?

Shoo! Get away!

- Don't mind us! - Coming through!

I think we're okay.

Haha!

Do you think she's all right?

Well, she's out of the way.

She'll be fine.

Let's deliver the present and get back to the sleigh.

The Princess's stocking.

Where could it be?

That looks about right.

Let's go and see.

Where on earth are we now?

I think...

it's a maze.

Ooh!

But we can walk out the door.

Whoa!

Let's try other ways.

Definitely not.

No maze rave for you.

Aww!

Babies love me.

Coochy, coochy, coo!

Agh!

Hurry up, Alice! Make haste, make haste!

We've a tea party to get to.

There's no time to waste!

What was that noise? I heard a sound!

Probably these hedgehogs all over the ground.

"Eat me."

How curious. White Rabbit!

Wait!

The Mad Hatter will be waiting. We're late! We're late!

Whoa!

What fun!

I've never been so tall.

And everything else has never looked so small.

Guards!

Look inside the chimney and under the bed.

When I find St. Nick, it's off with his head!

Behind every door there's always a trick.

We must find the Princess's bedroom

and quick!

Is it my imagination or is this space getting smaller?

The hedges are moving and growing taller.

Stuck in a maze! It's like a bad dream.

Prancer! So dramatic. I'll just call in the team.

Um...

The alarm was here.

Right in my pocket.

But it seems that I might have...

Don't tell me.

...accidentally forgot it.

The next station is Farringdon.

Change for the Elizabeth Line

and national rail services.

That bobble-hatted oaf! He can't outwit me!

What a clever little kitty cat.

Guards. This way.

Hmph!

Just climb to the top, Boots.

Go get some help.

Your foot's on my nose.

Who let out that yelp?

Santa!

What are you doing here?

Delivering a gift.

Who are you, my dear?

My name is Alice.

I've been here a while.

I crawled down a rabbit hole.

A rabbit hole? Ooh.

Not really my style.

What would you like for Christmas?

Something exciting, no doubt?

Sorry to butt in, but we need to get out.

Reindeer. A bit touchy.

Hello. I'm still here.

I'll help you out.

Thank you, my dear.

You're Alice from the book. And you've still got your head!

We're saved, St. Nick!

She's the best help we could get!

Well, my dear, the Princess's bedroom,

where might it be?

I haven't seen a princess, but let me see.

I've met some friends. They might know more.

They're having a tea party.

It's just through this door.

There we go, Mad Hatter. Just how you like it.

How frabjous, March Hare. I can't wait to try it.

Weak and insipid.

The most perfect of teas!

Thank you, Mad Hatter.

I used extra cheese.

By the way, why did the Jabberwocky not eat the pie?

I've no idea, Mad Hatter.

Neither have I!

Hello, Mad Hatter. Hello, March Hare.

I hope I'm not late.

Oops. Sorry down there.

Splendiferous! More guests!

So glad you could come.

- What is this? - Where are we?

What's going on?

Dear. Alice has been eating the appleshrooms, I think.

March Hare, sort it out.

Help her to shrink.

- Bottoms up. - Thank you.

Well, now, I think it's finally time for tea.

Come join us, old beans!

It'll be fun. You'll see.

Whoa!

Well, thank you for the tea. But we really can't stay.

We've a gift to deliver, before Christmas Day.

Fried tea leaves?

- You're joking? - You're as mad as Aunt Fred.

You can't say that word here.

We'll all lose our heads.

Our queen really hates Christmas.

It's her least favorite date.

So you'd better go quickly,

before it's too late.

That foolish old man.

Falling into my maze.

You know, what with this nightshift,

we should ask for a raise.

Agh!

How dare he show up with that smelly livestock

and that ghastly elf and start running amok!

St. Nicky! I'll find you.

Now, where could he be?

Haha!

I bet you that bumbling clown enjoys tea.

Haha!

Well, you're overreacting. It'll all be okay.

Even Scrooge can't resist my reindeer and sleigh.

Everyone loves Christmas.

That's just a fact.

The Queen!

The guards!

The Cheshire Cat. Hoo!

Tell me, Mad Hatter,

or I'll give you a clout.

Where are your guests?

Come on. Spit it out.

She's such a bully! I'll give her a nip.

No, Prancer, relax. This is just a small blip.

I'll make sure that no one comes to grave harm.

I just need to turn on the old St. Nick charm.

Your Majesty. How lovely to see you again.

Off with his head!

Guards, surround them.

Ooh!

The St. Nick charm?

Well, I don't understand.

I don't think the Queen's your number one fan.

You really can't do that.

That is St. Nick.

And who are you? I suggest you leave, quick.

My name is Alice, and you're being mean.

You've seen nothing yet, sweetie.

I am the Queen.

Put them on trial. Take everyone away.

Sharpen the guillotine.

This just isn't our day.

Is it a film?

Or a book?

Does it start with an "A"?

Is it three words or...

Crikey. Time's ticking away!

Something must have gone wrong.

He'd have pressed the alarm.

What if he's lost it or come to some harm?

Right, come on then, team. Let's go to their aid.

I was enjoying that game.

One final charade?

Follow me, gang, and don't make a sound!

I hope there's no Bandersnatches lurking around!

I'm considering a career change.

Give accounting a go.

Accounting? What's that?

It's less traveling and more dough.

Where is everyone?

Look, a broken light.

Let's try upstairs.

Something's not right.

So many doors!

I think Prancer's been here.

I recognize her bite mark.

They must be quite near.

Remind me next week to hand in me notice.

This tea's still warm. They were here! Keep your focus.

I'm deadly focused. I'm going to resign.

That alarm we got him was a waste of time.

Well, this isn't good.

You shouldn't have come.

And you shouldn't have called the Queen

the Princess's mum.

Princess? What princess?

I'm not sure he's sane.

St. Nick, tell us more. Please, do explain.

Well, it's not for the Queen I've come all this way.

It's for the Princess. I got her letter today.

The Princess?

This just got better!

It's all my fault. The letter, the letter!

It happened at Christmas a long time ago.

I remember it well. It had started to snow.

I was in a terrible hurry. I was running late.

When the Princess appeared and said...

White Rabbit, wait!

Here's a letter to St. Nick for a present I want.

Can you post it for me before the walruses grunt?

Please?

It was the Christmas letter.

Thank you!

Merry Christmas!

I had to pick up the pace.

But I ran straight into a Caucus-race.

Well, there were no rules at all,

no loser or winner.

You just ran around madly until it's time for dinner.

I got stuck in the middle but eventually got out.

But the letter was gone.

I'd dropped it, no doubt.

The envelope was ruined.

All it said was St. Nick.

Agh!

And now I was late.

Quick, quick, quick!

I posted it anyway, thinking you'd come.

Because when it comes to St. Nick, there is only one.

It's true. There is only one of me.

But the postal service...

Not what it used to be.

Only one delivery a day now.

The system's falling apart.

And the price of postage, don't even start!

Well, from that day on, things were never the same.

Because year after year, you never came.

With each passing year, she got sadder and sadder.

And the things that she did

got badder and badder.

She melted the snowmen,

batted mince pies away.

Chopped down all the trees...

♪ Deck the halls With boughs of holly

♪ Tra-la-la-la-la...♪

...and kept singers at bay.

She's banned presents and tinsel, mistletoe and good cheer.

If you mention the "C" word, you just disappear.

It's me that's to blame.

Never mind! Have some tarts!

So the sweet little princess is now...

- The Queen of Hearts! - The Queen of Hearts?

Give it some oomph. I'm supposed to be mean.

Watch out, everyone. Here comes the Queen.

Right. Let's not dilly dally. It's time for my bed.

Let's get to the verdict. Off with his head!

We haven't had the trial yet.

That comes first.

Do we really have to?

Okay.

But do your worst.

Thank you, Your Majesty. I'll try to be quick.

Citizens of Wonderland.

The court calls St. Nick.

Okay, okay, we're coming! You don't need to push.

Would you like some refreshments?

Yes, please.

Everyone, shush!

St. Nick?

That's me, and...

I'd like to convey a heartfelt apology for the dreadful...

Silence!

You are charged with the following crimes.

Get on with it. We don't have much time.

Number one: trespassing.

On my grounds, no less.

Breaking and entering.

He made a huge mess.

Damage to property.

A lamp and roof tile.

And reindeer poop.

A steaming great pile!

Well, I apologize for that, Your Majesty.

I do normally pick up.

What? Don't look at me.

But the very worst crimes, that the jury must hear...

Are the 12 Crimes of Christmas you commit every year!

The 12 Crimes of Christmas?

There's not such a thing!

Here we go, everybody. The Queen's going to sing.

♪ These are the 12 Crimes of Christmas

♪ Something we don't often talk about

♪ For it really is a rather awful business

♪ And it might be something we can do without

♪ All together now

♪ One: Those awful jumpers Auntie made you♪

That's quite tasteful.

♪ Two: Don't get me started on the sprouts♪

I like Brussels sprouts.

♪ Three: The joke in crackers that won't make you laugh

♪ Four: The constant carols wear me out

♪ Five: The dreadful pressure of finding the right gift

♪ That someone will return on Boxing Day

♪ Six: And then there's mistletoe

♪ And someone you must kiss

♪ When you'd really rather they would go away

♪ Seven: There's the relatives that you can't stand

♪ So you drink and eat so much that you don't care

♪ Eight: The mess they leave

♪ That only you will have to clean

♪ All the chaos has you pulling out your hair

♪ Nine: The children that will never go to bed

♪ 'Cause they're far too stimulated

♪ They won't sleep!

♪ Ten: The wrapping up of every present you have bought

♪ It takes forever and it's never really neat!

♪ Eleven: There's the tree that drops its needles everywhere

♪ It's like a nightmare that is never going to end

♪ Twelve: Then there's knowing that however bad it gets

♪ This time next year we will do it all again

♪ Those were the 12 Crimes of Christmas

♪ Everything about them makes me heave

♪ Yes, those were the 12 Crimes of Christmas

♪ And there's plenty more that I've got up my sleeve!♪

No need for a jury.

It's my choice instead. And I've decided...

- Guilty! - Result!

Off with his head!

Come along, then.

But, Your Majesty, please, those aren't Christmas crimes.

The crime I committed was to not reach you in time!

Your Majesty, stop!

This really isn't fair.

- Not you again, Annie. - Alice.

Whatever. I don't really care.

But this is the letter you wrote long ago.

St. Nick only just got it. That's why he's been slow.

Well done, Alice.

It was actually me. I delivered it late.

So it didn't get there on the right date.

I know you've been sad 'cause St. Nick never came.

But it's not really his fault. He's not to blame.

Let him go free to save Christmas Day.

Off with all their heads!

Take them away!

You tried your best, Alice. You've done all you can.

I'm sure the team are hatching a mastermind plan.

Any sign of him?

Nope.

I'm at a loss.

There's someone coming. Maybe they've seen the boss.

Have you seen a man in a red suit around?

White beard, slightly dazed look.

Makes a "ho, ho, ho" sound?

We apologize for the delay

of Flight 762...

...and flights to Wonderland, Botswana, Sydney and Peru.

Well, that's it, all over.

Finished, gone.

Christmas is canceled for everyone.

No bright-colored boxes to wake up and see.

No opening presents sat round the tree.

There'll be sadness and tears and tantrums, I fear.

There's nothing we can do. Dear. Dear.

I can't believe that horrible St. Nick.

And that young upstart Annes.

Just like me as a girl. Ever so gallus.

That means a bit bold and cheeky, just so you know.

I wrote this letter so long ago.

That's the end, little princess.

Just close your eyes tight.

And St. Nick will come and visit you tonight.

I've left a carrot for the reindeer

and St. Nick a nice treat.

You'll be first on his list. You're always so sweet.

See you tomorrow. Night night and sleep tight.

Night night, Papa. Don't let the Jubjub birds bite.

A Bandersnatch!

St. Nick might be late,

but he's finally here!

He must have my present after all these years!

I want to go home. I miss the grotto.

The Christmas sweepstake seems like ages ago.

I'm sorry, reindeer. You were right all along.

We should never have come here.

It's all gone really, terribly, badly...

That didn't rhyme, St. Nick. Is everything okay?

That poor little girl.

No visit from our...

big sliding thing full of presents.

- Sleigh? - Yes, that's it, I think.

But those weren't crimes back there.

You said it yourself.

It's not your fault the Queen's mad as an elf.

I blew it. That poor princess.

Alone every year.

Abandoned! Betrayed!

No Christmas fun.

St. Nick's lost the plot. He can't rhyme, he can't scan.

Reindeer, he needs us. And we need a new plan.

Boots, this is no time for messing around.

Hang on there, Comet. Boots, what have you found?

Look, there's a hole. We could crawl right through.

But we'd never fit in.

That's very true.

There must be a way. We just have to think.

Hey!

I know. We just need to shrink.

Yes we're free!

- Woo-hoo! - Hooray!

We've presents to deliver for Christmas Day.

This is not going to work.

I'm stuck in first gear.

Change of plan, everyone. We'll use Auto Reindeer.

What's the quickest route out of Wonderland?

- The Rabbit Hole. - Of course!

I'll lend you a hand.

I've been wanting to give Auto Reindeer a try.

- Destination: Rabbit Hole. - All set, let's fly.

Boots, there are spare presents back there in the sack.

Go share them out, in case we never come back.

I'm so excited! A shiny new pet.

One I've always dreamed of, always wanted to get.

I'm going to make sure that it's royally fed.

I'll give it big cuddles. It can sleep by my bed.

I could call it Britney or Bimbam or Lady Butterspot.

Ooh! Ooh!

What about Bunnybooboo?

Maybe not.

We're here!

Now, remember, don't be a meanie.

Yoo-hoo, St. Nick. I'm back!

It's Queenie!

They've gone.

I could crush a small elf!

Luckily, St. Nick just can't help himself!

Ouch! My neck!

That wasn't quite what I planned.

There it is! The Rabbit Hole, our way out of Wonderland.

You go first.

Thank you. That's very kind.

That poor princess.

Let's unload the presents. Can't leave them behind.

Help, reindeer!

I think I'm stuck.

Oops!

Those potions wear off. Did we forget to say? Ooh!

And now here's the Queen.

- You're joking? - No way!

Maybe we could sit on him.

- Sorry, St. Nick! - A tad uncomfortable.

Grab a leg each. That might do the trick.

There's only one thing for it.

Form a line behind.

Excuse me, St. Nick. I hope you don't mind.

Agh!

Ooh!

St. Nick! How nice to see you so soon.

It is?

What was that?

She's changed her tune.

I believe you have something for me in that cloaky.

- I do? - The present!

Yes, okey-dokey.

This is very strange. It was definitely here.

In this bottomless cape, things just disappear.

Here we go.

It's got a little bow, see?

A pressie, pour moi? Goody, goody.

Ooh.

Wha... Wha...

Typical! Everything's coming unstuck.

I think it's time to duck.

What is this? I don't like it!

The Queen's getting mad.

I'm afraid that's what happens if you've been... bad.

When you pick up a present, if you haven't been nice,

it turns into coal.

Smokeless, though, twice the price.

Well, change it back!

I don't want it!

She's out of her mind!

Um...

Only you can do that, by being kind.

K-kind? What a horrible word!

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

It's the first rule of Christmas. It's easy to do.

I've been doing it for years.

Not Queenie, though.

Spread happiness and joy to all that you see.

Don't worry. Let's help her.

Just come with me.

- Are you sure, Alice? - She can be mean.

Everyone should enjoy Christmas.

Even the Queen.

If Alice is going, I'm going with her.

I'll stay in the background. You won't know I'm there.

And we're definitely coming, aren't we, March Hare?

Yes.

What's going on?

We'll all come and help you. That's what kind people do.

Well, okay, then... Amy.

- Alice. - Well done. Good for you.

But till I get my present,

- you have to stay. - Ooh!

Guards, surround them!

And ticket the sleigh.

- See you soon. - We'll be back in time for tea.

Lovely.

I don't suppose anyone has a Plan B?

So, I couldn't go last year. I had a sore knee.

And the year before that, um... I fell out of a tree.

Trust me, I've never been kind at all.

You must have been once, when you were small.

No, don't tell me it's another song!

It'll be fun!

It won't. I won't sing along.

This is our chance to get away.

If we wait on the boss, well, what can I say?

All right, Boots, your big moment is here.

Well done, Boots! Good for you!

What on earth's going on? Whoa!

We're staging a coup.

Come on!

Reindeer!

There'll be no Christmas here. The Queen just won't have it.

But we can still save the day for the rest of the planet!

Help, reindeer!

Well, it looks like everyone

is having a ball.

So I've just one thing to say.

Merry Christmas to all!

From now on, I'm going to be kind and good.

Be as nice as a Wonderland queen ever could!

Fantastic news!

An extraordinary affair.

Christmas in Wonderland is back, I declare.

- A likely story! - That was too fast.

- She must be bluffing. - It won't last.

And finally, St. Nick, what can I say?

I'm sorry I nearly ruined Christmas Day.

Don't mention it. It's all in the past.

I'm sure you'd agree, team, that we've had a blast.

You can head off.

You're free to go.

To spread Christmas cheer.

Ho, ho, ho.

Well, that was quite good. I'm very impressed.

Just a tiny bit louder.

Ho, ho... Ooh!

My dress.

This is your chance to see how you've done.

If you've really been kind, the coal will be gone.

In its place will be something much better.

The Christmas wish you wrote in your letter.

Thank you, St. Nick, but it won't change, I know.

I've made a little progress, but there's still far to go.

I promise I'll be thoughtful, as kind as can be.

But keep that gift for one more deserving than me.

Great!

A Bandersnatch!

Well, I never! She has changed!

I better eat my hat.

A Christmas miracle is how I'd describe that.

He is so furry and fun!

And just look at that grin!

Come on, St. Nick. Do you fancy a spin?

No!

So that's a Bandersnatch? Aren't they meant to be savage?

Perhaps he's the friendly sort.

Less emotional baggage.

Baggage claim is now open for Flight 834.

For any lost luggage, go to the third floor.

Ho ho!

- Ho, ho, ho, everyone. - Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Merry Christmas.

Do you know what, St. Nick? I'm glad we came here.

Let's add Wonderland to the route for next year.

Prancer, it was quite an ordeal that I put you through.

Where on earth would I be without you in the crew?

Did I tell you, St. Nick? You really suit red.

Ooh. Really? Well, thank you. It has been said.

Right, come on, team. We must hit the road.

We've a long night ahead and all the gifts to unload.

I'd better go too.

Well, I'll give you a lift.

We're stopping at your house tonight with a gift!

Do you have to leave, Alice? I'd love you to stay.

I have to get home for Christmas Day.

This is too sad. I'll not see you again.

You will.

New Year's Eve at half past ten.

Ooh! I'm having a tea party.

You're welcome to come.

Really? A party?

Thank you. What fun!

Galloping baubles!

Robin?

St. Nick?

Robin!

What are you doing here?

I made a find.

I brought the alarm you left behind.

The alarm! Thank you! That's just what we need!

Well done, Robin. You're a trusty steed.

Nice one, Robin! We're going to need that.

- So glad you made it. - You deserve a big pat!

Well, Robin, now you've come all this way,

how would you like to lead the sleigh?

Yes!

Christmas is saved!

- Hooray! - Merry Christmas!

It's Boots!
