Dear Santa, how are you? I'm not doing so well.

There's this really, really bad man named Ebner Frost who lives up on the

He's got these weird people working for him, and I think they're going to do

something really bad this Christmas.

Ho, ho, ho.

Ho, ho, ho.

I don't want anything for me this Christmas, Santa.

But things have been kind of hard for my friends and the people in my town.

Mr. Frost and his men have been real bullies to everyone in Lakeville.

That's where I live.

We used to be a happy town. But now people are moving away because Mr. Frost

been so mean to them.

And now he's trying to take our orphanage away from us and nobody can

It might not be much, but it's the only whom we know.

I know you're really busy this time of year, but I just thought that since

you're going to be in the neighborhood anyway, maybe you could stop by a little

earlier this year and help us.

If Rudolph or your other reindeer aren't ready, you could take a car or a bike

or... Hey, you come back here!

P .S. I hope you're really out there, Santa.

Never stop to smell the roses.

Great armor.

Very nice.

Four minutes, 23 seconds.

Rope.

How'd I do?

You're the best.

Weasels. If you guys are bucking for a Christmas bonus, forget it.

423? You call that exercise?

Better cut down on my cholesterol, Pierre. Yes, sir.

Make a note, Chaz.

My picture on the can isn't big enough.

And have him make me more tan.

Yes?

Of course. Straight away.

Your guests have arrived.

Figures.

Business always calls when you're having fun.

Hmm. That should be another one of Blake's rules.

Make a note, Chaz.

Make it rule number... What number are we up to now?

385. Right. Make it 386.

Never mix business with pleasure.

Ooh, I'm hot today.

Better write that one down, Chaz.

The rules are important, guys. What would we have without Blake's rules

Fun. Chaos, Mr. Thorne.

We would have chaos.

Pierre, rule number 105.

Yes, sir. Never give an itch, especially when you can take one.

Franco 91.

Never lend a hand.

You might need it later.

Which reminds me, sir.

One of those non -profit organizations called and hiring about a Christmas

fundraiser they want to hold here at the mansion.

After all, it is Christmas.

Haven't you learned anything?

If you give them a taste, they want more.

If you want to do them a favor, send them some of those carbohydrate bars

aren't selling anyway. And Chaz, don't forget to write it off, sir.

Good man, Sam.

Okay, guys, let's go kick some paintball butts.

Let's roll.

Of course, before the timing runs out. But you still have to get the other

team's flag.

That about covers it.

Ready? Ready.

Never trust the enemy, Captain.

Hey, that's not fair!

Get him!

Listen, too quick.

Besides, this is fun. Give me your pay gun.

Really?

Sorry.

Idiot.

in Lakeville. There's a million places to hide.

I grew up there.

Number 21.

When in doubt, get out.

Later.

Pretty bad? Uh -huh.

Yeah. No problem.

It's no problem. I just ran into a streak of bad luck. That's all. I'll

money for you today. I promise.

Listen up.

I bought 50 bucks for the first elf that brings me Santa Claus.

It appears my luck may have just changed.

Receive payment from Lenny today or cause mass hemorrhaging.

Hi, I'm Dr. Blight, Mr. Frost's personal physician.

And Mr. Frost will be with you in just a moment.

Comfortable?

Anything I can get you?

Coffee? Tea?

Aspirin?

Good. Enjoy.

Hey, where are you going?

Let me down!

Mr. Ruffini, I'm Ebner Frost. I'm so glad you could make it.

I do hope we can reach an agreement on the sale of your shoe store.

I'm not selling my shoe store!

How unfortunate.

Well, since you're going to be hanging around a while, let me introduce you to

my staff of scientists.

Don't be disturbed by the fact they've been kicked out of some of the finest

universities in the world.

They've always just been a little ahead of their time.

And the law.

Allow me to introduce you to the world -renowned geologist, Mr. Flint.

Believe me.

You are going to make such an interesting fossil.

Canadian chemist, Mr. Vile.

Some find the scent of methane gas offensive.

I like to think of it as nature's perfume.

electrifyingly beautiful, Ms. Watt.

Oh, brain.

I'll give you all a chance to get acquainted.

We look that way? I don't know very well. I can't believe it. Come on. Let's

over here.

Oh, excuse me, Santa.

You haven't seen some crazy guy in army fatigues come through here, have you?

Well, no, officer. Nothing like that.

Well, uh...

Keep your eyes peeled.

And Merry Christmas.

Ho, ho, ho.

Now we know this Joker is around here. Idiots. So how do we find this guy? Now

we gotta just throw a cover over this thing and smoke him out.

Shane, I thought I missed you.

Yeah, if you hurry, you still can.

Do you have a minute?

Fax me, you little brat.

That's weird.

That's him.

Freeze!

All right, where'd he go? Up the chimney?

I think he's up in the air conditioning ducts. The ducts? Did you see the size

of that guy? I think he went underneath the floors.

The floor?

This is a cement floor.

Oh,

and your idea was best.

Hey, hey.

See if we lost Santa.

I'm not going to let this guy get away with Santa fraud.

Come on.

Another drunk mall sinner.

Well, you'll do.

You're a big one, aren't you?

Merry Christmas. Merry, Merry Christmas, average.

And Mr. Frost won't pulverize me.

I'm a snappy dresser, too.

Why? Don't mind if I do.

Oh, answer to my prayers.

Thank you. Thank you, Mr., uh... Blake Thorne?

Richest man?

I work here, doing the old thing, you know.

You okay?

I think so.

I was going to... To the North Pole, am I right?

You know, the kids are waiting for you. I'll take you there. We better hurry,

otherwise you're going to be really late, Mr. Uh... Mr.

Uh... You know, I didn't catch your name. You okay?

I really don't remember.

It's on the tip of my tongue.

Santa!

What? You're Santa Claus.

Santa! No.

Yes. No.

Yes. No.

Yes. Hello.

Look at you. Come here. Come here. Look. Who else would you be, huh? You get a

little hat.

You get the beard. You get the gloves.

Hey, see. It's Christmas time. Come here to spread a little of that holiday

cheer. Come on, man. I mean, sir.

We have a lot of work to do.

Santa?

Are you sure?

Hey, who's the one who got hit on the head, huh?

Sorry about that, Chief.

Let's go. I'll explain to you on the way.

Work with me. Here we go. Nice and easy.

Oh, oh, oh.

All right, I got you.

Losers, Santa.

Santa, losers.

Okay,

big guy.

Now, you're on. Now, remember to smash it. Ho, ho, ho a lot. And most

importantly, promise them anything.

It's showtime.

Watch your head. Low ceiling coming up.

You been good this year?

Yeah, sort of.

And, uh, what's your name, little girl?

What can Santa get you for Christmas?

Um, you know one of those.

Oh, golf ball.

No.

Pocket knife.

No.

Electric razor.

No.

Smile.

We're Santa's little helpers, and we're going to take this money to the

orphanage for him. Beat it, kid.

You are not.

We are, too.

Get lost before we tell Santa you're a bad little girl.

Santa!

You be good. Santa will be right back.

Give me a lump of coal.

How about two lumps?

But I, you know.

Anyway, hey, if you could just come over here for just a minute, there's

something I'd like to show you.

Mission.

They need help, Lenny. We should go.

Yeah, yeah. We should go there someday.

But first, we should go there.

We should go right now.

office. Let's get out of here.

I'm Santa.

Where's my sleigh? It's getting new brakes and Rudolph's got this stomach

I got something better.

Rapini sales, sir.

Did you get these disinfected?

Do you have any idea how many germs confessed around a piece of paper?

I have a feeling this Rapini fellow is not going to sell.

I'll sell!

I'll sell!

I'll sell!

I'll sell!

I'll sell!

I knew we could work things out in an amicable manner.

Oh, and remember to be out by Christmas.

Thank you.

Blight? Now our plans are almost complete.

I still have one last headache. The orphanage. Round up the troops and see

can convince our little friends to adopt a new attitude.

Adopt. That's a good one, sir.

I'll just get the spring.

Are you sure the scooter's going to make it?

What do you want?

Oh, we just dropped by to see how your relocation plans are going.

Any way we can be of help?

You're so full of it.

Just leave us alone.

Why don't you just disappear forever?

We'll be around if you need us.

Please, don't hesitate to call me.

In your dreams.

Come inside, children.

Wow.

you can call me Santa.

Well, the least we can do is offer you dinner. Do you have time?

Sure. They can't start Christmas without me.

Can they?

Santa, you saved my life, man.

to get a lot of letters.

I think so.

Wait, right there. I'll be right there.

You have to cut Elizabeth some slack.

She still believes in that stuff.

She also believes in the tooth fairy and the Easter bunny.

My name is Sarah, and that's Taylor.

Hey, kid, how's it going?

Lenny's my name.

Hello, Santa.

I'm Ledley Morgan. I run...

Or at least I try to anyway.

Thank you for what you did.

That was a very stupid thing you did out there, Sam. But I'm glad you did.

Hey, if I'd been 20 years younger, I'd have done the same myself.

Hey, look here. Leslie, she may run this place, but I'm the one who keeps it in

one piece.

Clayton is the name.

Well, thanks, everybody.

I'm really glad to be here.

I'm really not sure why.

But I saw the sign at the mall.

For some reason, I thought I might be needed here.

Who are those guys, anyway?

The scientists?

Oh, they work for Mr. Frost.

He's been clearing out the whole neighborhood, and no one knows why.

Now he wants the orphanage. And he'll get it, too.

Shut up. He will not.

Sounds like a very naughty boy.

Oh, thank you.

Chocolate chip?

I don't think so.

I mean, are these good for you with all the fat?

Santa, don't you remember? You love cookies.

Oh, yeah.

Mrs. Claus has to hide them from him. Otherwise, he blows up like a blimp.

Here,

have some milk.

Is this low fat?

This guy's got a nosey mouth the size of a donut. You know what I'm saying?

Hey, hey, hey, I'm talking jelly -filled here.

It's how Santa decides to give a boat an aerial tour of the North Pole.

Hey, uh, Santa, uh, do you have a place to

stay tonight?

Elizabeth, can we keep him, please?

Elizabeth, he's not a dog.

What about me?

All right, all right.

But they're not going to be able to stay for long, Elizabeth.

Christmas is only three days away, and Santa's going to be very busy.

Yay! Thank you, Leslie!

Yeah, well, we're pretty much closed down anyway. See, we found homes for all

the kids that we could.

We're the leftovers.

Santa,

you take any one of those empty rooms, okay?

I think it's time that I put the kids to bed.

Good night.

Good night. Thanks for dinner.

See you later.

Good night, Santa.

Come on, Elizabeth.

Good night.

Nice jammies.

I'm sorry about the pajamas, Santa, but that's all we have.

They're going to patch up your Santa outfit and they're going to have them

ready by tomorrow.

Good night. Don't let the bed bug you. You look great.

You look like a leftover from last year's Christmas break.

Look at you.

You look ridiculous.

This man doesn't have a tail.

Am I a sheep? Am I a bunny? Which one of these two things?

Don't worry.

You're Santa.

Now give it a rest, will you?

Thank you.

Nighty -night.

You know.

Good morning, Santa.

I saved you a seat over...

Santa!

You forgot your, uh... Uh... Uh... You know, this is a very funny

story.

Santa?

Uh, Mrs. Claus says it tickles.

So I just wear it for deliveries.

There it is.

Yeah,

you're quite a hero, Santa.

You know, Santa, I can't help thinking I know you from somewhere. I mean, the

mall.

Delicious this way.

Oh, you'll have to try it.

That's the end of it.

Sorry. Try the crunch berries.

They're even better.

Fantastic.

Guess I'll just recycle this.

Recycling, kids.

It's just the right thing to do.

He's right.

to the United Banking System's print secure teller. For $100 gazillion,

place your stolen thumbprint on the scanner.

Thank you for doing business with us and have a nice life in South America.

Give me a hand.

I always try and help people out as much as I can.

Well, thank you.

Hey, I'll wash, you dry.

So, what are you going to do now?

Well, what do you think Santa would do?

Well, I think Santa would do nice things.

Like helping people, spreading Christmas spirit.

You know, following all the Santa rules.

Santa rules?

Of course, you know.

Oh, I get it. It's a test.

Okay, it's like this.

There are things you always do and things you never do.

But it's just that some people only follow those rules around Christmas

You always help someone less fortunate than you. You never turn your back on

someone in need. When in doubt, help out. And act the way you do at Christmas

all year round.

Santa rules. I like that.

Bye, Santa.

I fixed up your suit, Mr. Claus.

It's pretty ripped up. I even made a few improvements.

Improvements? Yeah.

I gave it a more...

Continental look.

Wow.

I shorten the sleeves to feed him a movement. I give it a v -neck and a

belt for Super Santa.

Wow. Do you like that? This is great, Sarah.

Thanks. Where'd you learn to do this?

Mega Man, number 96.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

Cool duds, huh?

Oh, wait a minute. Where am I dredged?

Keep your pants on, Keats. If I'm getting there.

Jeez. Excuse me.

I'll get it.

Good morning.

I'm Helen Shue of News 8. We heard that the Santa with muscles lives here and we

wanted to do a big feature on him. Is he available?

We'll meet you in the courtyard in just a moment.

By the way, how much do we get paid for this?

Good morning, Lakeville. We've all heard the song Santa Claus is Coming to Town.

Well, Santa isn't coming.

He's already here.

Lakeville Church of the Light Orphanage. This Santa with muscles not only filed

a robbery at the Lakeville Mall yesterday, but he also thwarted vandals

the mission.

Santa Claus, may we have a word, please? We're live on Channel 8.

Welcome to Lakeville, Santa. So, tell us, how did you get here?

Uh... Uh... Um... Well... Uh...

Rooster.

Slay? Reindeer.

The reindeer brought me here.

Of course.

But, Santa, you look so much more healthy than you did last year. Tell us,

what's your secret?

I love to eat a lot of reindeer meat.

Dope.

Just kidding, Helen.

I just, I try to laugh a lot every day.

There's a new Santa in town, and I know if you've been naughty or nice, so be

nice.

Santa, thank you very much, but we got scheduled to keep him. Yes, you know how

busy we are.

Back to you, Helen.

Ho, ho, ho! I'm Helen. She's reporting from Lakeville Orphanage. Now back to

in the studio.

Yes.

Thank you, Santa, for putting the orphanage on the map.

Let me ask you something, Dr. Blight.

Does he remind you of anyone?

Something about him seems familiar. Of course.

I saw him last year at this time.

And a year before that. You know what I'm talking about.

I just can't put my finger on it yet.

But I will.

Welcome,

Mr. Thorne, to the United Banking System's print -secure teller.

Place your thumb on the scanner for... Fingerprint identification.

You betcha.

Oh, Leonard, you are a genius.

I'm sorry. That is your right thumb. Please place your left thumb on the

scanner.

Hey, wait a minute a sec. How you doing?

Mr. Frost requests your presence.

No problemo. I'll just, uh... Now?

That was good.

Into the van, elf boy.

What do you think you're doing?

Fist of Frost, pleasure to see you. I was just working on repairs. Staying

alone. You're making trouble for me, you little worm.

The last thing I need is anyone drumming up support for that orphanage.

I want that Santa with muscles out of there.

Am I coming in clearly?

We have a very good connection, sir. I understand every word. No! More!

Talk! There are a lot of us in the North Pole.

I just want to go home.

Come here.

Well, Mr. C, time for a push -on.

What about your scooter?

Oh, it's better now. Isn't that the darndest thing? Besides, can't have you

spending all your Christmas cheer in one place. Have to spread it around, you

know?

Yeah, how about it? Good Santa.

Attaboy.

I'm not leaving.

What? You still need me here.

I'm dead.

and Mom sang it to me.

If I sing it just right, I might be able to wake up the fairies in the window.

Fairies?

Leslie says the church has magic windows.

People used to come from all over to see them work.

Nobody comes anymore, though.

I used to think that when they lit up, it meant my mom was a snake.

I must, but I don't remember.

I don't remember my parents either.

Itchy?

Why not take it off?

You don't mind?

Even if you don't have a beard, you'd still be Santa, right?

Let's try that song again.

Do you know it?

Start me off.

Always remember the time I spent with you.

November, December, April, May, and June. You are my angel baby.

They're not after you. Never turn your back on someone in need.

A friend of mine once told me that.

Keep the milk and cookies warm.

I thought

it

was Christmas, not Halloween.

Why don't you go trick -or -treat somewhere else, Doctor?

Certainly.

Santa, after you.

Shouldn't you be back in the North Pole around now?

I strongly suggest that you return to your next of kin.

This is my family.

Very well.

Oh, what the heck, I'll wait.

Patient. Santa Claus.

Complaint?

Blurry vision.

suffers from bad tummy aches.

Maybe it's time you did head back home.

Oh, yeah.

Tomorrow's Christmas.

Don't you have to go back to the North Pole?

I'm not going anywhere.

And I'm not going to let anyone steal our Christmas.

Hey, you guys, where's Taylor?

Oh, yeah.

Uh, yeah, Taylor.

Oh, no.

Calculation.

Take number.

Well, Mr.

C, how are we supposed to get over this?

Fly on one of your reindeer?

Oh,

boy.

I hope you appreciate the risk I'm taking here.

Just remember, when Christmas Day rolls around, I expect a little something

extra, Mike.

Yes, I do.

Where are the denominators?

Doctor, my confidence is in balance.

If you'll hunt a gold group for you, compared to both of us, it wasn't

If you quantify that data, you'll see. It's wrong. It'll never work.

But I found the formula for pain.

What are you trying to do, smother me?

I have a very delicate metabolism, you know.

Okay.

You couldn't leave the mansion in time. It would make things a lot easier.

What about the germs?

The germs have been hovering around me my whole life.

This is naughty.

He's even worse.

That doesn't make it right.

I was only trying to be like you.

Protecting all of us.

I did what I had to in self -defense, Taylor.

I'm only tough when I have to be.

Is that a Santa rule?

It's my rule.

Come on.

We're here already, so let's at least check it out.

Lenny, go with Taylor back to the bikes.

I'll take a look.

Oh, come on.

That's the most sense I heard anybody make all night.

Come on, kid. Did I ever tell you about the night Shannon and I fought those two

guys at the mall? Forget about it, my little friend. I can't. Stop.

We'll then take it. A little thing we call a phobia. You presume?

Go ahead.

Are you listening to me?

Now that I own all of it, I can begin excavation immediately.

I've been waiting a long time for this. I want what has doomed me, and I want it

now. But, sir, aren't you forgetting one minor detail?

I want that orphanage cleared before the last Christmas turkey is sliced.

Do you understand me, Doctor?

Slur your blood pressure.

What's under the orphanage?

Uh, water and power lines.

Telephone cables?

Sure.

Rats. Big, ugly rats.

The clubhouse.

Clubhouse? Oh, the old catacombs underneath the church.

Yeah, the kids use it as a clubhouse.

And there's a big vault door down there.

vault kids we're gonna find out what's in that

vault down there i don't know i don't think it's been opening all the years

been here we know the combination well some of it

Be careful what you sell.

So how far did you get with the combination?

Three numbers.

I'll show you.

And the

third one is...

16.

That's as far as we've gotten.

8, 24, 16.

Go, go, go, go, go, go.

Let me go.

Oh, my God.

Watch your eyes.

It's okay. I'll be...

This has been underneath us the whole time.

These are what must make the church windows glow.

These are the parents?

Unbelievable.

It's Warren.

Oh, put that down, honey. You don't know where it's been.

Okay. I told you so. Everybody out.

And watch your feet. You don't want to step on one of those. Watch your feet.

Come on.

In a minute.

I just want to figure out how I open the vault.

Hey, you're Santa Claus.

Come on.

Then Dr. Blight was right.

Why am I not at the North Pole then?

And how do all the kids in the world get their presents tomorrow?

I don't think you want to ask too many questions.

It only makes trouble.

You're not buying the Santa thing.

All right.

You want the truth?

The truth it is.

See this?

We're wearing this when I found you.

How'd you get blood on you?

I don't know.

I don't ask. You ask too many questions.

Maybe you find out you're a wanted criminal or something.

I don't have all the answers.

But those kids, they need Santa Claus right now.

Just be Santa.

We'll figure out the rest later, all right?

Thanks.

Hey, that's what I'm here for.

Just give me a couple more minutes.

They're all yours.

See you upstairs?

Thank you.

You got it.

Yo, this is Lenny.

Hello, Lenny.

I'll pay you the money somehow, Mr. Frost, but please, I don't think it's

I just can't.

When I watch your opinion, I'll have it surgically removed.

Mr. Frost, they're keeping pretty close tabs on me. Then you'll have to be

sneaky. You're very good at that.

So listen to me, you pollutant.

Okay.

Hey! The lights are out!

What is it? What happened?

I believe she's trying to say it's me.

What are you looking at?

I think you're funny, don't you?

I can cure that.

Santa,

you slay me.

What a dream.

Santa Claus.

What a bonehead.

Happy Christmas, Mr. Thorne.

Did we have a good sleep?

What happened?

I was hoping you could tell me, sir.

A gentleman.

Waste disposal engineer, in fact.

He caught sight of you in his dumpster.

And recognizing you from your products, he fetched you back here.

Wearing that.

I was... Santa Claus.

Leslie. The kid.

Operator. Connecting with Lakeville Orphanage.

Hello? Leslie, it's me.

Oh, Santa.

What do you want?

Huh?

What do you mean?

Are you and the kids okay?

I remember Dr.

Blight was there. And Elizabeth screamed.

And I think I fell off the roof.

I'm sorry I left you and the kids.

assemble the team.

We're taking the orphanage now.

And the question everyone is asking is, where is Santa?

Lakefield's own Santa with muscles has not been spotted since he fell to purse

matching yesterday.

It's been widely speculated that he's returned to the North Pole.

Back to you in the studio, and Merry Christmas.

I'm not surprised.

There's no such thing as Santa.

Hey, little one.

Maybe he did go back to the North Pole.

Hello, Twinkle Toos. I could use some help in the kitchen.

Merry Christmas to all.

Gentlemen, bring the children.

What do you want with us?

With you?

Nothing.

I want what's in your vault, what's under this whole neighborhood.

You just happen to be in the way.

Then let us go.

Who's going to do my mining?

Why, you... There are children present.

Children.

Hello, children.

I'd like you to do a favor for your Uncle Ebner.

I'd like you to open that vault.

We can't. We don't know anything.

We're just kids.

You help out your Uncle Ebner, and I'll give you some Christmas cookies, candy

canes, and plum pudding.

Plum pudding?

I tried.

Prepare them for mining!

No!

By the way, Lenny, I want to thank you for letting us in.

I'm sure it was quite a sacrifice for you. Lenny, I can't believe you. Take

away.

You can't open it,

can you?

Oh, yeah.

Thanks, Pierre.

Mon Dieu.

I never seen a bus like this.

He loves to hit me.

Yeah. Santa, it's Lenny.

Lenny! How are you?

I tried to call about... Forget it, big guy. There's no time.

this gold squad.

He's got his pet scientist everywhere.

He's trying to get in the vault, and when he does, he's going to use the kids

mine the crystals. I don't know how long it's going to be before... How, how,

how?

How's my favorite patient?

Remind me to prescribe something for that pounding headache you must have

that nasty fall.

Remind me to introduce you to my two little friends, Lefty and Righty.

Name it, Santa.

These long -distance phone calls from the North Pole must be getting pretty

expensive, so I'll be brief.

Step one foot onto this property and I'll use your friend in my next

Until next year, Santa.

Gentlemen, we have a mission.

Tuck in that trowel.

Here, put a shot on that garlic press.

And clean up that lug wrench.

Okay.

Mount up.

All

right,

men.

Let's go spread a little Christmas cheer.

To Mr. Frost, five minutes.

Do you realize how fast

you were going?

No, no, no.

Hey.

Turkey breath.

Do you realize how fast you were going?

We have company, sir.

Just one? No problem.

an unexpected gift.

We'll just have to handle it. Blake's Way.

Pierre, the first course, please.

Let him try some of Blake's Way salad oil. No cholesterol, only three calories

per serving.

And it goes down smooth.

What the?

How about some Blake's Way protein powder for our

little friend?

That was a desert storm.

I'll teach you to mess with Thomas P. Hinckley.

He's surrendering options, sir. What do you think, Chaz?

Blitz rule 20, sir, is never surrender.

Jumpstart.

Chaz, guard the back entrance.

I'm going to find the children and get the adults upstairs.

Santa Claus, are you?

No, I'm not. I just thought I was for a while.

My name's Blake Thorne.

You're not Santa.

You're better.

We have an operation to carry out. You guys with me?

Yeah! Where are the others?

Okay,

let's try to find them and let's stay together.

You're welcome, monsieur.

Thanks.

In case you haven't noticed, the odds are cheating.

Mr. Thorne, it's all there, except for a couple of bucks.

Money.

You're not going to hug me or nothing, are you?

Let's go find Leslie and Clayton. Come on.

All right.

Well, all you had to do was knock.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

I am now.

I'm Blake Thorne. Good to meet you.

Let's go.

I've got to find the children.

Uh, Blake, Blake.

I'd like to talk to you a minute.

Have a seat.

Here.

Have a seat.

You lied to her.

Blake Thorne.

What's the matter?

Blake Tarachewski.

Doesn't fit on the bottle.

How did you... Isn't it coming back to you yet, son?

You grew up here.

Look.

Is that me?

There's more.

You see the boy sitting right next to you? He was your best friend.

Edna Frost.

Do I have to do everything myself?

Do I?

Yes, you do, Patsy. Why?

Because you surround yourself with nincompoops like me.

Quick.

Mother said to be not.

Hi.

Couldn't stay away from me, huh?

It's okay. I have got effects on women.

So much has gone on. I'm so confused.

Well, don't fret.

It just so happens I'm a specialist in matters of the heart.

Oh,

are you really, Doctor?

Well, maybe you can give me some advice.

Why, Leslie, you certainly are a different person when you're away from

homeless little losers, aren't you?

Listen, you pig!

Nobody talks about my kids that way!

Hey, that's not funny! Great job!

Now we'd better get out of here.

I can't let you do this, Abby.

Abby.

What's wrong?

I haven't heard that since we were kids.

Flake.

Flake tore a chest.

So you're the one who's been causing all my pain.

Maybe I have.

But I'm going to put a stop to all of this.

Oh, you're going to stop me.

You got it.

These are good folks, Debbie.

Leave them alone.

You got a problem with me? Let's take it outside.

You shut up already!

Don't flatter yourself.

This is about money!

Lots of money!

What happened, Abby?

You used to be a good kid.

Stay, I need a lecture.

While you're off spending Mommy and Daddy's millions, I was running away in

place.

Well,

you know what?

Being sent opened my eyes.

I didn't like what I saw.

and adopted a mountain.

Well, now it's my turn to set you straight.

Too late.

We're not kids anymore.

And his gang.

Well, it wasn't easy, Helen.

Did I call you Helen? Not one more here. It took exhaustive investigative

reporting. Excuse me, Helen, she was, he was eight. Go away.

Go away.

Go away.

I guess he'll have a chance to defrost himself.

I'm going to get you, Santa.

I'm going to get you.

I'm coming. Go away.

I'm just kidding.

Merry Christmas, Abner!

Well, you did an amazing job cleaning all that up, but where are we going to

now?

all the placements available.

Thank you.
