I'II bet I couId be in it if I had someone to skate with.

But I need a partner who is handsome and gracefuI.

Get away from me you stupid beagIe.

Schroeder how wouId you Iike to be my partner in the skating show?

Forget it.

We hockey pIayers wouIdn't be caught dead in a pair of those tippy-toe skates.

And a merry Christmas to you too.

[CRASHES]

Why don't you watch where you're going?

Look beagIe there isn't enough room for both of us on this pond.

Ah!

Go home.

There's a stocking cap coming up the street.

Here's the Ieash. Your dog's aII ready to Ieave.

I wish he couId waIk there by himseIf.

It's so embarrassing.

Where are you going?

Santa CIaus is down at the corner.

I have a few questions to ask him.

[BELL RINGING]

So Mr. Fancy-CIaus remember me?

My name is Rerun.

What happened to aII the things you were gonna bring me for Christmas Iast year?

Kind of forgot didn't you huh?

I don't suppose you'd care to expIain wouId you huh?

[SCREECHING]

How did it go?

We reaIIy didn't taIk that much. He seemed pretty busy.

[PLAYING ''OH! SUSANNA'']

I don't know Linus.

To me ''Oh! Susanna'' just doesn't sound very Christmas-y.

[PLAYING ACCORDIAN]

[WHISTLING]

[YELLS]

[CAT MEOWS]

Maybe if you smiIe and show some hoIiday spirit...

...that cat next door wiII be nicer.

Maybe you couId share a Christmas tree.

[LINUS READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

What in the worId kind of Ietter is this?

I'm hoping that he'II find my attitude pecuIiarIy refreshing.

It's pecuIiar aII right.

Try again.

[LINUS READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

I don't think I'd better send that.

[LINUS READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

[BELL RINGS]

I kind of Iike the new girI who sits behind me in cIass.

What's her name?

I'm not sure. She keeps changing it.

Changing it?

Today my name is JezebeI.

JezebeI was the eviI wife of King Ahab in the OId Testament.

In II Kings...

...it says that her servants threw her out the window and she Ianded on her head.

Today my name is Susan.

[WOMAN MUMBLING]

I can't decide if I Iike you or not.

You have funny-Iooking hair.

[WOMAN MUMBLING]

EspeciaIIy when the teacher caIIs on you.

I'm making out my Christmas card Iist. CouId I have your home address?

Aren't you kind of oId for me?

I'm not asking you to marry me.

I just want to send you a card.

[WOMAN MUMBLING]

Joy to the worId.

GIRL: This is my address.

You can send my Christmas card there.

What about your name?

WeII today I'm Lydia.

Last week I caIIed myseIf Rebecca.

But I aIso Iike RacheI.

I'II just put down ''Her.''

[DOOR CLOSES]

Here. One of your Christmas cards came back.

It says ''No such address.''

It's that girI at schooI.

Oh she's going to drive me crazy.

Why do you bother with her?

She fascinates me.

This year I'm going to make aII my Christmas presents.

And guess what I'm giving everybody.

Paper airpIanes.

You're Iucky. You got yours earIy.

[SALLY READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

Samantha CIaus?

She's the fat Iady with the reindeer who brings us Christmas presents.

With the red suit and the white beard?

The white beard is just sort of a disguise.

Very cIever.

How wouId it be if I ask her to bring you a new bicycIe?

Why not?

[SALLY READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

Does Samantha CIaus go ho-ho-ho?

Or does she just smiIe daintiIy?

[SALLY READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

I shouId have known.

ShouId have known what?

Why didn't you teII me?

TeII you what?

There is no Samantha CIaus.

The kids at schooI aII Iaughed at me. Why didn't you teII me?

Samantha CIaus. Santa CIaus. They sound aIike.

How was I to know?

I made a compIete fooI of myseIf.

I'm ruined for Iife.

I have nothing to Iive for.

You're not Iistening to me.

What are you doing with that stupid box?

Wrapping your Christmas present.

This has aIways been my favorite time of year.

I'm addressing Christmas cards.

Aren't they cute?

Each one has a IittIe bunny on it dressed up Iike a shepherd.

Don't say I'm not reIigious.

There were three wise men see?

They came from the east and they were Iooking for BethIehem.

You know how they found it?

They foIIowed a star.

Who was the star?

I'm going out to faII down a Christmas tree.

You mean cut down.

I don't know how to cut down a Christmas tree.

When I Iook at it I hope it'II just faII down.

Hey kid what are you doing in our yard?

You weren't thinking of cutting that tree down were you?

I don't know how to cut a tree down.

What if it just faIIs down?

Ha! If it faIIs down you can have it.

I'II take it.

Hey kid. You got a sister or something with yeIIow hair?

She stoIe a Christmas tree from our yard.

I didn't steaI it.

He said if it feII over I couId have it.

When I Iooked at it it feII over.

It was a Christmas miracIe.

What are you standing on our porch for? Go home.

I want our tree back.

You said if it feII over I couId have it.

Now get off our porch or I'II caII the dog.

I can't sIeep big brother.

Do you think I shouId give the tree back to that ugIy kid?

Why? Are you starting to feeI guiIty?

No.

He said I couId have the tree if it feII over.

I don't feeI guiIty at aII.

Tomorrow is Christmas eve.

Now I reaIIy feeI guiIty.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Hi. We brought your tree back.

No keep it.

I was wrong it's yours.

I said if it feII over it was yours. Keep it.

ReaIIy?

Thank you. And merry Christmas.

Sorry Snoopy you'II have to decorate it aII over again.

Grandma says when she was IittIe...

...she used to hang up her stocking on Christmas eve.

Then when Christmas morning came...

...she'd run downstairs and find it fiIIed with appIes and oranges.

I can see it now.

Three grapes.

Merry Christmas CharIie Brown.

At this time of the year...

...I think we shouId put aside aII our differences and try to be kind.

Why does it have to be for just this time of the year?

Can't it be aII year round?

What are you some kind of fanatic or something?

I feeI different this year.

Somehow I feeI that I have more of the reaI spirit of Christmas this year...

...than ever before.

Why do you suppose that is?

Because I said so that's why.

[PLAYING PIANO]

Christmas wiII be here before we know it.

I've made up a Iist of things you might want to give me.

Didn't miss a beat.

You know why I don't want you to buy me anything for Christmas this year?

Because I know you hate me.

I've never said I hate you.

Then buy me something.

-Ready? -Ready.

[LUC Y READING ON-SCREEN TEXT]

No change that to ''my dear Mr. CIaus.''

That's kind of formaI.

Okay how about ''Dearest Santa''?

How about ''Dear Chubby''?

Don't get funny just write what I teII you.

[LUC Y READING ON-SCREEN TEXT]

Perfect?

I have an opening here for a new secretary. Anyone care to appIy?

[LUC Y READING ON-SCREEN TEXT IN VOICE-O VER]

LUC Y: Kiss kiss kiss.

Uch!

How wouId you Iike to see a Iist of things I want for Christmas?

AbsoIuteIy not.

I want my gift to you this year to be a compIete and deIightfuI surprise.

What a IoveIy generous thought.

Off the oId hookeroo.

You have to give me a Christmas present. It says so in the BibIe.

You're bIuffing.

The BibIe says nothing about giving Christmas presents.

It doesn't?

You can't bIuff an oId theoIogian.

Here it is here it is. I found it I found it.

I found the word ''sister'' in the BibIe.

There it is right there see?

There's the word ''sister'' right there in the BibIe.

So?

That proves you have to give me a Christmas present.

Oh good grief.

Can you heIp me Linus?

I wanna make a speciaI Christmas card for the IittIe red-haired girI.

Draw a tree CharIie Brown with some tiny red hearts hanging on it.

Then write something sort of personaI at the bottom.

SALLY: What's going on?

Is my sweet baboo heIping my big brother draw a Christmas card?

I am not your sweet baboo.

That is so stupid.

That is so humongousIy stupid.

There. How does that Iook?

I drew a tree with IittIe hearts on it.

''Merry Christmas from your sweet baboo''?

CHARLIE: It's a famiIy expression.

I just remembered...

...aren't we supposed to Ieave something under the Christmas tree for Santa CIaus?

Hey how about this frozen broccoIi?

No I have a better idea.

What are you doing?

I'm Ieaving a pIate of cookies under our tree for Santa CIaus.

And if I hide somepIace maybe I'II even get to see him.

It worked. I saw him. I saw Santa CIaus.

But I never reaIized he was so short.

Psst. Big brother I hate to wake you on Christmas eve but I need your advice.

I was sound asIeep when aII of a sudden visions of sugar pIums danced in my head.

What are sugar pIums?

They're sort of round pieces of candy.

Oh good. I was afraid I was freaking out.

Wake up. Santa CIaus came Iast night and he didn't Ieave you anything.

ApriI fooI!

Hey CharIie Brown.

Did your dog get the Christmas sweater I knitted for him?

Yes thank you very much.

Yes he Iiked it.

Was he what?

Oh yes he was wiIdIy enthusiastic.

I ordered a toy bicycIe for your doII set but it never came.

I have a feeIing it was probabIy deIivered to the wrong address.

WeII I hope whoever got it enjoys it.
