jingle bells,

aaah!

Oh! Mr. Bonkers...

You boil me to death in my own shower,

there'll be no one here to feed you.

What time is it?

I'm late! Oh!

Bonkers, what happened to my dress?!

Close your eyes.

Year!

Come on!

Ah! I still got time! I can still make it.

Hark the herald

it's okay.

Thank you, annette!

Wow, that was, uh... That was beautiful.

yay.

Great job, girls.

There is a lot of talent in this... Town.

Ahem. As you know,

the snow belles have been the very definition

of christmas spirit in richfield

for over 40 years.

Becoming a belle is a big deal.

Now, we have a very difficult decision to make.

So, to all of you, we wish you good luck.

And, most importantly...

You can go now.

Wait! Wait!

I'm so sorry I'm late.

My cat, my car, and that stupid snowplow.

I'm sorry. Please tell me I didn't Miss the auditions.

Holly... Oh, sweetie,

I would love to let you try out,

but we only have the church till 8:30, so...

But it's only 8:20.

Ooh, yeah. You just missed it.

I'm sure that's really disappointing.

Please, marci, I've waited years

for a spot to open up in the snow belles.

Now that ingrid's gone...

May she rest in peace... I cannot Miss this chance.

Marci, her mom founded the snow belles.

You have to let her try out.

Look, marci, I have wanted this so bad.

It's all I ever think about. Look at this.

I designed new costumes.

I got new arrangements of classic carols.

I'm just asking for a chance, please.

I'm sorry. Maybe another spot will open up soon.

In fact, barb's vocal chords

are aging much faster than her face.

So fingers crossed.

Oh, I'm dying for a gingerbread latte.

Let's go, girls.

wow.

Thanks for making that decision more difficult.

Yeah. Okay.

Well, we're gonna go deliberate...

And caffeinate.

Let's go, girls.

heh.

Hi, mike.

Hi, holly.

Hi, guys. hi.

Hi, jessica. Hi, holly.

So, how'd it go?

You killed it. Come on, you killed it, right?

Oh, yeah! I told you you'd kill it!

And can I be the first one to say... Thank god!

Because if I had to hear you talk about making the snow belles one more time...

Ajay, I don't talk about it that much.

Really? Because every time you say "snow belle",

I add a paperclip... Ahem... To this.

Wow. That is a huge waste of office supplies.

Yes, it is. Here, you should have it.

I haven't exactly made the belles yet.

Ah. Ahem.

Hey, don't worry about it.

You'll get it... Because you have an amazing voice.

And because we're completely out of paperclips.

Ladies, I think we've found our girl.

Those in favor of staci.

Oh, seriously?

Staci?

I mean, she's good.

She's a solid choice, but holly was...

Late, for starters.

How hard is it to show up on time?

And that performance. Ha! I mean, hello?

Um, christina aguilera called, and she...

She, well...

She wants that whole christina aguilera thing you ripped off back.

We are not gonna have a diva in this group.

Ha ha!

I'm sorry. Did I say something funny, barb?

Well, I just think we should just consider holly.

Oh. We did. And we're picking staci.

Who's in favor?

Mm-hmm.

I'll call holly and tell her the bad news.

Unless any of you want to.

No? Great.

Listen, I know that it's the holidays,

and the temptation is to just slack off

and cruise into the new year.

But remember... We don't shut down until december 25,

so I want 100% from everybody.

Yes, larry. We're still having a holiday party, right?

I'm gonna let h.r. Handle this one.

Bernie. yes.

The holiday party.

The good news is that we... Are having one.

But the not-as-good-news is that it's going to be here

in the lobby of the office.

What?! ohh!

But corporate has assured me that this,

uh, change of venue

should result in, at most,

a 9% reduction in employee enjoyment.

So...

Happy holidays from headquarters!

Nick, back to you.

Guys, let's not worry about the holiday party right now.

We need to finish strong.

Because there is no better gift this christmas

than the pride you feel when you tell your loved ones

that richfield international resources

had the most productive fiscal year in company history!

Hallelujah!

Um... I'm just so inspired, you know?

Ready to get back to work. Let's go, team!

Hello? Hi, holly. It's marci.

Oh, hi, marci. Is this a bad time?

no, this isn't a bad time at all.

Oh, great.

So we made our decision.

Well, I have to admit...

I've been obsessing about this since this morning.

Then I won't keep you waiting a minute longer.

We all talked, and... Well, holly...

You're just not snow belle material.

But listen...

Your performance... It was...

Oh, just adorable.

Ha ha! You're just the cutest little thing!

So, you know, keep on singin', you.

Merry christmas.

Merry christmas.

I hope that's not a personal call.

What?

Oh, no. It was just, um...

Good.

Listen, holly...

I know you think I take office productivity very seriously.

But it kind of felt like you were mocking me.

I can't be humiliated in front of my team.

We understand each other?

Sure, nick.

Great.

That's... That's cute. Heh.

Let's get those paperclips back in the supply room

by the end of the day, huh?

Hey, whatcha doin'?

Come on, it's kind of funny.

This is all your fault.

Exactly. That is what makes it so funny.

Okay, I'm sorry.

Hey, you want some help? Nope, I'm almost done.

Good, because the girls from accounting are going out for drinks,

and I was gonna go join them.

They invited you no.

I'll see you.

Oh, holly. You got a second?

Sure. What's up?

Would you mind taking that down?

It's not really appropriate above the boss' door.

Oh, and, holly?

Yeah? Could you close the door, too, please?

Thanks.

Jerk.

aah! aah!

aah! aah!

aah! aah!

Boys, boys!

I don't understand this game.

What are the rules?

I don't know.

aah! aah!

aah! aah!

How can you think with all of this noise?

What noise?

Honestly, I don't even hear it anymore.

I just kind of tune it out.

Ed, restart the dvd!

Staying for dinner?

It's healthier than it looks.

Boys would puke if they knew they were eating veggies.

Well, this is my dinner.

Holly! Grace!

First of all, marci is a frigid biatch,

and second of all, if you want to go christmas caroling so bad,

we'll go with you.

Yeah. Me, dad, gary... I'll force the kids.

They'll hate it. It'll be great!

I don't want to go christmas caroling.

I want to be a snow belle.

I want to perform at the mall...

Christmas eve...

Just like mom did.

I know, it sounds stupid.

It's not stupid, sweetie.

Boys! Food!

You know what? Forget about the snow belles.

Why don't you start your own group?

You can't just start your own group.

Why not? Mom did.

Don't... Put your hand

anywhere near their mouths when they are eating.

You will lose a finger.

Uhh. Stupid snow belles.

I should start my own group.

Even if I did, it's not like they'd let us perform at the mall, anyway.

Excuse me. Who's in charge of the mall?

Merry christmas!

Santa? I need to ask you a question about christmas eve.

Ha ha ha! Uh...

What do you want for christmas, young lady?

I know you're not santa claus.

Ha! Good.

You kind of threw me there for a second.

I mean, I figured you were a little old.

But it's a mall, right?

The place is full of wackos.

What can I do you for?

I don't know.

I mean, every year it's the snow belles.

It's just the way it is.

Yeah, but theoretically, can't another group

audition for the christmas eve show?

Speaking strictly theoretically?

Beats me. But I already got the snow belles

on the sign out front, so...

You know? Yeah, I know.

Well, I mean it is just a sign out front.

I could have my guy carl change that thing in, like, five minutes.

Yeah! Sure! You know what we could do?

We could have tryouts like that american idol!

really? Why not?

I'm the manager. I can shake things up if I want.

We could make it this really big thing

a week from saturday...

Anybody who wants to gets a chance.

And the best group will perform christmas eve.

How's that sound?

Wait. I don't have a group yet.

We were just speaking theoretically.

Lady, we are way past that.

I already got carl out front, changing the sign.

This is gonna be awesome.

That tone-deaf skank!

Christmas eve is our night.

And what... Now we have to compete for it?

It's unjust is what it is.

The snow belles have always performed

at the deck the mall christmas spectacular.

We're the only spectacular thing about it!

I told you we should've picked holly.

Barb! Please!

Now, if holly thinks that she is gonna steal this from us,

well, she...

She...

She is peppermint-barking up the wrong tree.

Oh, that's good!

Peppermint-barking?

Ruff-ruff-ruff!

Thanks, staci. Uhh!

But don't worry, girls. Because, as usual,

I will fix this.

Because no one...

No one screws with my snow belles.

Wow. Remind me never to get on your bad side.

I didn't do this for revenge.

It was just... Kind of an accident.

Right. The belles don't pick you,

so you "accidentally" open up the christmas spectacular

to everyone fa-la-la-ing fruitcake in town.

Okay, so what do I do?

Hey, you started this.

You're gonna have to put a group together.

Okay, okay. I'll be in your group.

But you just called us "fa-la-la-la-ing fruitcakes".

Yeah. But the ladies totally dig musicians.

Can you even sing?

Do you even have a choice?

All right.

So we have you and me. Now what?

What?

So tell santa what you want for christmas, sweetheart.

Oh, crap!

What the hell, mike?! Marci!

Hey! What brings you out to the mall?

Oh, you know damn well what I'm doing here!

What? I thought it would be fun to try something new.

They say variety is the spice of life...

Shut up!

You are gonna call off these auditions

and put the snow belles back on that marquee!

Sorry, marci, but I couldn't do it even if I wanted to.

Word is out!

I had three groups sign up just this morning!

Wouldn't be fair to them.

Fair? You want to know what's fair?

You son of a...

...kill you!

I'm sorry you feel that way.

Yeah, you will be sorry.

boo!

Fine, we'll beat everyone anyway!

What do you think? Naughty list?

Psst!

Trust me. You gotta hear this girl.

Bernie from h.r.?

I don't know about this, guys. H.r. People weird me out.

It's always like they're trying to catch you doing something skeezy.

Then don't do anything skeezy.

Hey, bernie.

Hey, larry, holly.

I did not just look down your shirt.

Glad to hear it.

What can I do for you guys?

God, it is like a day spa in here.

As a representative of h.r.,

I have to say that this is highly inappropriate.

Yeah, this is a little weird.

Come on, bernie! Belt one out!

Show them what you can do!

You guys are making me nervous...

All staring at me like that.

Here.

Just go inside,

shut the door,

and let it rip.

This feels wrong!

Just go for it!

I tell you... She's got the voice of an angel.

Wait for it, wait for it.

Ha ha ha! wow!

Told ya. So...

Is somebody gonna tell me why I'm caroling in the crapper?

Good night, holly.

Good night, sir.

Hey, you know we don't pay overtime, right?

Yep. We're all very aware of that.

Yeah. Well, don't stay too late, okay?

Larry, did you get the keys?

Let's do this.

Trust me, this is the perfect place to rehearse.

Everyone knocks off at 5:00,

and it is totally soundproof.

You could murder someone in here

and no one would hear them scream.

Well, I've never murdered anyone in here.

I've never murdered anyone anywhere.

Oh, god. Can we just start already?

All right, let's start with something simple.

Again!

Yeah! Ha ha ha ha! aah!

That was better.

That was perfect...

If you were trying to sound like a dying moose... Barb.

Now do it again, from the top.

All right, bye. Bye, guys.

See you guys later. Have a good night.

Hey, so we were seriously on point tonight, right?

Are you kidding me?

What are you talking about? You said we're getting better.

The snow belles have been doing this for years.

They're like caroling robots.

They're gonna destroy us.

Man, you're a serious buzz-kill.

We're missing something. Like what?

I don't know. We need better moves or something.

It needs to be more like a...

Like a show.

We got a week to figure it out.

I'll see you, holly.

Okay, bye.

We are so screwed.

Winter storm warning. Icy roads still in effect.

And here's a word from our sponsor.

Hey, folks, it's mike

from the linden grove mall,

reminding you to sign up

for the deck the mall auditions.

Who knows? You could be caroling on our stage...

Christmas eve!

ugh. Please kill me now.

See you guys! aah!

I don't want to die! I don't want to die!

I don't want to die! Aah!

ohh.

Hi. Yeah. Um...

My car is stuck in the snow on main street,

just past overlook.

Okay, how long is that gonna be?

Yes, I know that there's a winter storm warning.

Fine. Just get here when you can.

Thanks.

Wow! That was really, really bad.

Can I have a glass of white wine?

Up next, it's the king of karaoke,

and he's here to rock the mic!

Give it up, dickens tavern!

Oh, my god.

Oh, my god!

Thank you!

Yeah! St. Nick is in the house!

I pity the fool that has to follow that.

Wow. That was impressive.

Ah, I was just having fun, you know? Doing my thing.

Glad you dug it.

I mean, I would not have believed that

if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes.

What are you doing here? Nick, you were amazing!

You cannot tell anyone at work about this.

Look, you should not be embarrassed, okay?

You were great. No one at work can know!

Do you realize what this would do for you around the office?

People would actually like you!

People like me.

You know what? I'm... I'm the boss, okay?

My job isn't to be liked.

It's to make sure that the work gets done.

Absolutely.

You're right.

So do you do this a lot?

Every friday night.

You had the crowd in the palm of your hands.

You were unbelievable!

Gotta give the people a show.

Right.

A lot of people think it's just about getting up there

and hitting the notes,

but there is so much more to it.

There's stagecraft, there's choreography.

Everybody in the audience has to feel like you are singing directly to them.

Exactly.

Holly... You okay?

We need your help.

We? Who's we?

Please, nick.

I can only take the group so far.

We just need a little bit of what you've got.

It's the only way we can beat the snow belles.

Forget it. I want no part of this.

If you could just teach us to do what you do...

Holly, this conversation is over.

As far as I'm concerned, I never saw you, you never saw me.

This never happened. And you know what?

I don't want you guys using the warehouse anymore.

You're slacking off as it is.

Oh, yeah. I noticed.

Oh, yeah? Then I guess I'll have to tell everybody

about st. Nick.

The king of karaoke.

Go ahead. Nobody would believe you.

Really?

Well, the internet was invented for this.

Come next friday, the entire office will be down here.

You wouldn't dare.

Warehouse, tomorrow, 2:30...

Or this goes viral at 3:00.

Oh, man! What is he doing here?

It's saturday. He can't fire us on saturday. Can he?

What's the company policy in a situation like this?

We're in a bit of a gray area here.

Guys, calm down. I invited him. You what?

If we're gonna have a chance at beating the snow belles,

we need help.

And nick has serious skills.

He does? You do? How do you know this?

I can't tell you that, but trust me... We need him.

I wasn't sure you were gonna come.

Well, I didn't really have a choice, did i?

No, I guess you didn't.

So... This is the group?

What do you call yourselves? You have a name?

Sir, I'm larry from purchasing.

I know your name, larry.

I'm talking about the group. What do you call the group?

Well, we're sort of still working on that.

You don't have a name? Mm-mm.

Okay, all right. We'll get to that later.

I am sensing some hostility. True that.

Guys, he's here to help us.

What do you think? How do we sound?

Well, at least you can sing. Yeah!

Not you so much, bu the rest of you aren't bad.

I mean, they're not good.

Okay.

Look, you're just not... Working as a team.

You need to think of your voices as keys on a piano.

Separately, you make sounds,

but together, you make music.

Damn! That's deep, son.

Now, you guys... You have potential.

But what you don't have is time.

So if I'm gonna help you,

you need to do exactly as I say.

Check.

Also, I am only helping you.

I am not part of your group.

Chiggity-check. Don't do that.

Sorry. No one can know about this.

No one. Clear?

Word. Got it. Crystal clear.

Okay.

Let's take it from the top.

Drop your jaw.

Nice.

Stand up straight!

Oh, sorry.

Come on, sell it, sell it.

Good.

Pick your feet.

Keep the energy up.

Good, nice.

Good, all right!

uhh!

Ohh! Perfect.

I'm just... Stretching.

Well, that wasn't totally excruciating.

But we still have a lot of work to do.

I think it's great. Heh heh.

All right, guys, that's enough for tonight. Who wants a drink?

I do. ooh.

Okay.

So are you coming?

I got work to do. It's 8:30.

You're going back to the office?

The time that I waste here in the warehouse

has to be made up somehow, doesn't it?

Unless, of course, you would like to delete that video.

Are you kidding me? Because of you,

i'm starting to believe we have a chance.

Come on, just have one drink with us.

No, thanks.

Man, you really need to get a life.

Oh, really? Mm-hmm.

Says the girl who blackmailed her boss

so that her caroling group can sing in a mall.

All right. Well, if you change your mind,

we'll be at deacon's tavern. Heh.

You do know where that is, right?

Ha ha. Very funny.

All right, bye.

Good night, holly.

ow!

I drive by this place every day,

but it never occurred to me to actually come inside.

I always though it was full of day drinkers

and people with mullets.

Whoo! Yee-haw!

And was not wrong.

Listen, guys, I want to thank you

for working so hard on this.

I couldn't have done it without you.

Are you kidding? I'm still riding high

from tonight's practice. I'm having the best time.

My wife can't wait to see us perform.

Wait, wait, wait! You have a wife?

Yeah... Theresa.

She married me for my body.

Not this body.

The one I had when we got married.

oh.

oh!

I'm glad you asked me, too, holly.

I haven't had a whole lot to do after work

since I beat red horizon 2.

Yeah. You beat red horizon 2.

Mm-hmm, twice.

Whoa. That is hot.

That isn't appropriate.

But I'm okay with it.

Well, I'm glad we're in this together.

So here's to... Whatever we're called.

Nick's right. We need a name.

I got it. Holidazed and confused.

ha! no.

Ooh, I got one! The snow tunes.

Sounds kind of like show tunes, but it's snow tunes.

Right. That's okay.

We need something cool, something that rocks. Yes, yes!

Sled zeppelin.

Clever. Hmm, not quite.

The backstreet goys.

Okay, that's just stupid.

And I'm jewish.

I did not know that.

Guys, the snow belles have been doing this forever.

We need a name that screams holiday tradition.

We have until friday to sign up,

so clearly, we can think of something by then.

Oh! Oh!

Oh, I got nothin'.

Hey, bonkers.

How hard is it to come up with a freaking name?

That's it.

Bye, bonkers.

Listen, baby, if you want to audition,

you gotta come down here and sign up in person,

just like everybody else.

Yeah. I got somebody else in my office. I gotta jump.

So... What can I do for you, babe?

Uh...

Hey. It's you!

Yeah, it's me.

Ha ha ha ha ha! Lady, I got to admit,

I thought you were nuts for taking on the snow belles,

but this is the best thing that's happened

since we put stuff on a stick in the food court.

Foot traffic's up 60%,

and we've still got two weeks till christmas!

And I owe it all to you.

I came here to sign up for the auditions.

Yeah. Sure. Here's the list.

Wow. That's a lot of groups.

No. that's a lot of groups.

Just sign at the bottom.

How awful are they?

Not awful enough.

Hmm? Please.

They're, like, a group of rejects.

And that holly girl... Yeah, she's not so great.

Oh, please. Don't be an idiot, staci.

Holly was easily the best singer to try out for the belles.

Well, then why did you...

Because the snow belles are my group,

and I'm not gonna let some diva come in here

and take this all away from me.

Besides, I didn't know that little door mouse

was gonna start a war over it.

But make no mistake, staci...

Holly has talent and a grudge.

She's dangerous.

So what are you gonna do?

Oh. Heh heh.

I'm gonna give her what she wants.

Ooh. Christmas cookies.

Ah! You know...

To wear a snow belles costume,

you actually have to fit...

Into a snow belles costume.

You called us the mistle-tones?

That's stupider than any of the ideas we came up with.

I like it. Me, too.

Works for me.

You know, it's kind of growing on me.

Nick, next time this year,

you'll be running an entire division.

Sounds good to me, jim.

You know what sounds good?

the engines on a corporate g-5

as you leave ridgeburg for good.

Ridgefield. Whatever.

If you deliver the quarterly numbers

you're on track to deliver, you're golden.

I'll catch you later.

So who said you could stop working?

Heh! Holly.

My car won't start.

I just came inside to call a cab.

That's fine. I can give you a ride.

Oh, no, no, you don't have to.

No, it's fine. I'm done for the night, anyway.

Okay. Well, if it's not too much trouble.

No, it's no trouble at all.

Let me just get my stuff.

You ready? Yeah. Sure, let's go.

So... Everybody was looking pretty good today.

Larry hit all his marks.

Bernie... Seems like she's having fun.

And ajay is... He's not singing through his nose.

I'd say the mistle-tones

have a decent shot on saturday.

You know, you could've told them that.

Yeah, that's not really my management style.

I've noticed.

Hey, I get results.

That's why you're forcing me to do this, right?

No, I'm forcing you to do this

because under that corporate robot exterior

beats the heart of a rock star.

Ha! Come on.

No, I'm serious.

That guy on stage is amazing.

You should try being him a little more often.

He's fun.

I was that guy, holly, for a long time.

And then I grew up.

boo. Oh, god.

I'm sorry, but not all of our lives can be made complete

by singing in a shopping mall christmas show.

Oh, yeah. And a wall full of corporate "way to go" plaques

is so much more meaningful.

Hey, I worked very hard for those "way to go" plaques.

Work isn't the same as passion.

When you find something that makes you happy,

you can't give up on it, no matter what.

Look, let's just agree that we both want different things.

Fine.

But your thing's stupider than mine.

Ah, that's me...

The one with all the lights.

Yeah, I figured.

So let's say you get your wish.

You beat the snow belles,

the mistle-tones perform on christmas eve.

What are you gonna open with?

I don't know.

But I do know what i'm gonna close with.

When my mom was a snow belle,

they closed with the same song every year.

It's perfect.

Well, thanks for the ride.

No problem.

Heh. Good night.

Holly.

Don't forget... The holiday party's tomorrow.

I don't know why I just told you that. Heh!

Well, I appreciate the reminder.

Good night... Again. Good night.

It's about time you got home.

Marci? So... Tell me everything.

Was that your boyfriend?

Uh, what are you doing here?

Holly, I think we got off on the wrong foot.

I just want you to know that, honestly,

I don't blame you for starting this whole mess.

So I've been thinking... Working against each other

doesn't do anyone any good.

But if we joined together,

then none of those groups

could even hold a candle to us.

What are you talking about?

In the spirit of christmas,

I have decided to make room for a sixth snow belle.

So, holly... Congratulations.

You're in. Aah!

Ohh! You're a belle!

Just like your mom.

Oh. I know. This is so overwhelming for you.

Yes, right, okay. You know what?

You take the night, let it sink in,

then meet us at the church first thing monday morning,

'cause we have a lot of work to do.

Let's bounce, vixen.

bye!

Wha...

Attention, everybody!

Happy holidays!

Please drink responsibly.

Whoa.

Guys, this is the lamest holiday party ever, isn't it?

No, it's just...

Yeah, it's pretty lame.

Don't worry. I can fix this.

Not that lame, though.

Like, only 9% lamer than last year.

Just like the report said.

Thank you.

Hey. You're missing a really pathetic holiday party out there.

Here you go. Thank you.

Oh, wow. Heh.

Merry christmas.

Do you think the mistle-tones have a chance

of winning this contest?

Well...

You've only had, like, a week and a half to practice.

I'll take that as a "no".

I didn't say no. But you didn't say yes.

Okay.

Holly, what's this really about?

All right. Marci came by the house last night,

and she asked me to join the snow belles.

Seriously? Yeah, it was weird.

She just showed up and said I was in.

Hmm. So are you gonna do it?

I don't know. I mean, if I join the snow belles,

i'm practically guaranteed a chance

to sing on christmas eve.

The tones are fun, but you said it yourself...

We don't have a chance.

Okay, then you have a choice to make.

Do you take a risk, or do you go with the sure thing?

What would you do?

You'd take the sure thing.

This is your decision, holly.

Why didn't she just let me in when I tried out?

Sometimes the opportunities that we want

don't always come exactly when we want them to.

Heh. What are you doing?

Thank you for your help.

I guess I'd better go tell the guys.

Mm. Wow.

That's awful.

Whoa, coming through.

Always keep this baby in the car...

In case of emergency.

Check one, two, one to the two.

All right, ridgefield international resources...

If you down for a little karaoke,

make some noise!

yay!

Richfield, if you down for a little karaoke,

make some noise!

Yay! Whoo! yay!

yay.

Okay, you know what? I'm just gonna leave this on.

Use it, don't use it... See if I care.

I tried. Thank you.

Hey, guys. I need to talk to you.

What's up? What's going on?

It's about the audition tomorrow.

Everybody, can I have your attention, please?

There's something I need to share with you.

He'll say,

no.

here to stay

yo, give it up for the boss-man!

Whoo! Yeah!

You can't leave the mistle-tones.

Screw the belles. The tones is your group.

Win or lose, you're in this together.

What?

What? Say something.

If the mistle-tones are gonna win,

we need you to help us.

I am helping.

No, I mean, we need you to sing with us.

Come on, you just outed yourself

in front of the entire office.

Singing at the ball would be a walk in the park.

I wouldn't Miss it for the world.

So I'll... See you tomorrow?

Absolutely.

Okay.

Nick. I'm going to need you and holly

to stop by my cube on monday

because there are some boss-employee make-out forms

I need you to fill out.

Shut up.

This is nick.

Hey, buddy, it's jim. Surprised you're still there.

What am I talking about? Of course you're still there.

You're a workaholic.

What's up? Got some great news, man.

Marty schuster... Our southeast asia guy...

Lost it... Like, total nervous breakdown.

That doesn't sound so great.

Not for marty, but it is for you.

Buddy, I'm giving you the keys to southeast asia.

What? That's right, pal.

Looks like you're getting your promotion a few weeks early.

Merry friggin' christmas. Just one more thing.

You need to get on a plane tonight.

We need boots on the ground, asap.

When the boys upstairs asked me who we could send

halfway around the world this close to christmas,

i was, like, "nick's our guy. He works 24/7, no family."

you were made for this moment, brother.

Congrats. Call me when you touch down in mumbai.

Hey, marci. It's holly.

Um, look, I thought about your offer,

and, well...

I'm not snow belle material.

But listen... Good luck tomorrow.

You guys are adorable! Merry christmas!

Staci? Assemble the snow belles right now.

We are having an emergency rehearsal.

Because I said so!

Okay?

Welcome to the fight before christmas!

The ultimate caroling battle royale!

20 groups facing off

to be the official musical act of...

Deck the mall christmas eve spectacular!

First up... It's the chest-notes!

Hey, sorry we're late.

Hey, guys. No worries.

We don't go on for a while.

Where's nick?

He'll be here.

All right, everybody.

This next fella's gonna put the hip-hop in your holiday.

It's ludakris kringle!

Hi, this is nick anderson. Leave a message,

and I'll get back to you.

Hey, nick, it's me... Holly.

We're at the mall, and I'm just wondering where you are.

Please call me back. Thanks. Bye.

Hey! You made it!

Of course we did. We wouldn't Miss this.

You don't have to be nervous.

You're gonna be just great.

Thanks for coming.

Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together

for the tinsel tweens!

Ladies and gentlemen, the tinsel tweens!

Let 'em hear it!

Great job, ladies. Yo, yo, that was awesome!

Those little monsters just threatened me.

Hey, guys, I guess nick's not coming.

So what? We don't need him.

Yeah, we can do this. I'll sing his part.

I guess so.

It's now or never.

All right, let's do this.

Mistle-toes.

Put your hands together for the mistle-toes!

Whoo! Whoo!

Oh, lar-bear, you did so good!

Mwah! Heh heh!

Well... It wasn't our best performance.

Don't worry, larry. We were great.

Yeah, who cares what happens.

Yo, that was awesome. Right?

The mistle-tones, everybody!

Let 'em hear it!

You were fantastic! I am so proud of you!

Oh, thank you. You were great.

Thank you. Really great.

Our last group needs no introduction.

They've been bringing the christmas spirit

for the last 30 years.

Ladies and gentlemen, the snow belles!

Thank you. Thank you so much.

We love you, too.

Well, I guess that's it.

Want to hit the arcade?

Sure.

Heh! We'll see you guys on monday.

Okay.

Bye, holly.

bye.

I'm gonna go check on the kids.

Whew.

Why don't you have a chat with the old man?

Come on.

You know, your mother would've been real proud of you today.

I doubt that. She would've been up there

with the snow belles, bringing the house down.

Do you know why your mom started the snow belles?

It was so that she and her friends

could have a good time singing christmas songs.

It wasn't about the applause

or winning contests.

It was about having fun.

But do you know what her favorite part was?

The last song of the christmas eve show...

She'd take you up in her arms,

walk out on stage,

and all of those people were watching,

but she was singing right to you.

That's all I remember of her.

And she'd be okay with that.

It's what mattered to her.

I love you, holly.

I love you, too.

It's a little late, nick. Heh heh.

See what he has to say.

Hello?

Holly, I am so sorry.

I have been on a plane since last night.

I... I don't know what to say.

You don't need to say anything, nick.

They gave me the promotion.

I've been working really hard for this.

Congratulations.

I really hope that you get everything you want.

Holly... Good-bye, nick.

Bonkers!

Coming!

I can't believe you're making me do this.

Oh, come on. This is a tradition.

I'll meet you guys in a second.

You okay?

You all right? Yeah.

You sure. Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Ooh. Poinsettias for christmas.

Looks like someone stopped at a supermarket.

Can I come in?

Sweetie! Oh...

I'm sorry. This dressing room

is for performers only.

Which you aren't.

I just wanted to say...

Say what? That you're for causing

this whole carol-off situation?

Or are you sorry that you didn't take my offer

to become a belle?

Or are you just plain sorry you lost?

I just wanted to say merry christmas.

What's that supposed to mean?

Have a great show.

You... You don't tell me what to do!

Welcome to the deck the mall christmas eve spectacular!

Featuring... The snow belles!

What is he doing?

Come and sing with me.

Forget it. Please.

Holly, go on and sing with the guy.

I'm not going up there.

Who wants to hear holly sing?

What are you doing here?

I turned the promotion down.

It was what I thought I always wanted.

But when I got there...

I realized I didn't want it anymore.

I wanted you.

Somebody once told me that when you find something

that makes you happy,

you can't give up on it, no matter what.

I'm gonna make you work for this.

Heh. That's fine. I'm a workaholic.

Please come and sing with me.

Christmas baby, please come home.

What is this?

This is not part of the christmas eve spectacular!

Maybe it is now.

Wait. Where are you going?

I am your leader, and we can't support this!

Marci, come on. It looks like fun.

Staci, if you go over there,

your off-key ass is out of the belles... Forever!

Marci, lighten up. It's christmas.

Wha... You...
