00:24all to the tinsel and the lights.
00:27Oh, Christmastime, it's Christmas Eve.
00:31Merry Christmas to you and to you a good night.
00:35Hi, Dad.
00:36Hi, honey.
00:37I'm almost finished.
00:38We're finally going to go buy our Christmas tree.
00:41Hey, guys, look at this.
00:43Ooh.
00:45Well, I wonder what I'm going to get for Christmas.
00:49Every light that shines reminds me of a toy.
00:53Got a new gold penny and want to spend it.
00:57Every click and clock and knickerbocker
00:59makes me want one more.
01:02On to the store.
01:10Well, I wonder what I'll get to give at Christmas.
01:14Every bell that rings sings give my love away.
01:18Oh, my heart is warming with my friends before me.
01:22I'm the nicest, kindest, Christmas-like,
01:24shiniest, givingest of days.
01:27Give love away.
01:31I already gave.
01:36A smile on every face, a slower, simpler pace,
01:40a spirit we embrace with tidings full of cheer.
01:44We give a helping hand to every fellow man.
01:48Just try, you'll see you can make every difference here.
01:51In Excelsis Deo.
01:57Looking good, guys.
01:58Thanks, Jimmy.
01:59How's the collection coming?
02:00We're getting plenty of food to share with the less fortunate.
02:07Hey, Jimmy.
02:08Hey, Junior. What's up?
02:09It's only the most exciting night
02:11before the most exciting day of the whole year.
02:14Santa? Gifts? Reindeer?
02:16I'm so excited, I can hardly stand it.
02:19Me, too.
02:20What are you guys doing?
02:21Every Christmas Eve, my grandpa's giving me one gold coin,
02:25and I'm allowed to spend it on whatever I want.
02:28There's too much to choose from,
02:30and I don't even know what Santa's bringing me.
02:33Well, I hope it's gonna be a happy Christmas.
02:37I hope I feel the way I feel tonight.
02:41With my gifts all around me, will I be astounded?
02:45We'll be the neatest, merriest, greatest, best of Christmas Day!
02:52Oh, we hope it's gonna be a happy Christmas.
02:59We hope we feel the way we feel tonight.
03:03With our friends all around us, will we be astounded?
03:07We'll be the neatest, merriest, greatest, best of Christmas Day!
03:12I can hardly wait!
03:16We can hardly wait!
03:18We can hardly wait!
03:21We can hardly wait!
03:27I'm gonna get some more sheep.
03:28I can hardly wait.
03:35Merry Christmas to me. You broke your truck again.
03:39This is going to cost you.
03:40Do you have a loaner I could borrow?
03:42I have to deliver those packages tonight or else.
03:44Oh, sure. I have a sleigh with a reindeer out back.
03:47What do I look like, a Santa Claus?
03:50Can you fix it tonight?
03:51You want me to work on a Christmas Eve?
03:53Cost you double. Cash only.
03:56But I won't get paid until I finish the deliveries. I'll lose my job.
03:59Dad, what's happening?
04:00How is this my problem?
04:03If you can't pay, then go away. We're closed.
04:06My truck!
04:07Come back after Christmas.
04:09With cash.
04:12What about our tree?
04:14We have to find your mother.
04:25I have an idea. Laura's dad should ask Santa for a new truck.
04:29Uh, Junior, I'm not sure you realize how this works.
04:33No, he's got it right. We have to be good. Santa brings us stuff.
04:37It's the circle of Christmas, Bob.
04:41Let me ask you this first. What's Christmas about?
04:44Santa!
04:45Family!
04:46Presents!
04:47Big turkeys, juicy hams, and sweet potatoes with those little marshmallows on top.
04:53I haven't had dinner yet.
04:59Oh, Baby Jesus!
05:02Wait a minute. What does Santa have to do with Baby Jesus?
05:06Now that's a great question. Let's find out.
05:09Do you know what Santa's real name is?
05:12Santa's real name?
05:14I'll give you a hint.
05:16Up on the housetop, click, click, click.
05:19Down through the chimney comes...
05:21Old Saint Nick!
05:23Or try this one.
05:24The stockings were hung by the chimney with care in hopes that...
05:29Saint Nicholas soon would be there!
05:31Right again!
05:32So, who's this Saint Nicholas?
05:34That's Santa's real name.
05:37Bob, a little heads up. Santa's real name is Santa.
05:41It's fairly self-explanatory.
05:43It looks like I need to tell you all the story of Saint Nicholas.
06:04Here you go. Take it. It's a gift.
06:07Oh, really? Thank you, lady.
06:10Back before the days of Constantine, when the emperors of Rome were nasty mean.
06:14In a grimy-sounding country that was fairly clean.
06:16Greece! Greece! Greece!
06:18In the land of Saganaki and Serachese.
06:20Of Plato, Aristotle, and Socrates.
06:22Where you could have a toga party if you pleased.
06:25Nice toga.
06:27Faristo! That's thank you in...
06:29Greece! Greece! Greece!
06:31Greece is the home of Nicholas! Nicholas! Nicholas!
06:35Now learn the song before you're sick of us!
06:37Greece! Greece! Greece!
06:44Caught a lot of fish, Captain?
06:46Your father will be pleased.
06:48He and I are going to catch even more when we go fishing today.
06:51I bet you will.
06:53Who's that?
06:54That's young Saint Nicholas.
06:56Wait. That's Santa Claus?
06:58It can't be. We're nowhere near the North Pole.
07:01Oh, does he go on an adventure?
07:03Does he get swept out to sea while trying to save an elf?
07:06Hold on, little elf. I'll save you.
07:08Grab hold of my sleigh.
07:10Are you done?
07:12Just trying to move the plot along, Bob.
07:14Nicholas grew up here with two parents who loved him very much.
07:18He had no need that went unmet, and he was happy.
07:22Nicholas, it's time for church.
07:24Dad and I are going to go fishing as soon as church is over.
07:28Oh, all right.
07:30Does he live in a church?
07:32In the third century, most people worshipped in homes.
07:35Did they also have Christmas in the summer?
07:37Because it doesn't feel very festive around here.
07:39Well, it's not Christmas time yet.
07:41I mean a wreath or something.
07:44Huh? I'm telling you. I said it, and it was there.
07:47Of course it was. It's our story, and we're telling it.
07:51Oh, now quiet. They're praying.
07:54Please comfort him in this trying time and heal him from his sickness.
07:59Amen. And now let us sing.
08:05Hey, Nicky Boy, sneaking out before the party?
08:08This could go on for hours.
08:10Don't call me Nicky Boy.
08:12I think it's nice, Nickel Stick.
08:14Your parents are always thinking of others, always giving.
08:18I guess. I'll be outside.
08:20Or you could help me give away all this fish.
08:36Friends, may God's blessing be with you all.
08:39And also with you.
08:41And now, who's hungry?
08:46I made a baklava. Who needs a honey rose?
08:49So, how about those olympics, eh?
08:51You're wasting away. Here, more fish.
08:58Octavius, next time, hold the anchovies.
09:08Let's see. Shovel, rake, hoe, hoe, hoe.
09:13Oh, fishing poles. There they are.
09:16Blessings be with you all.
09:20Blessings be with you all.
09:22Time for fishing?
09:24Time for fishing.
09:36Not very Christmassy, Bob.
09:38Shh. This conversation is important.
09:41Needs lights. Twinkling lights.
09:46You know, Jesus said we are fishers of men.
09:49I told your captain we'd catch more fish than he did today.
09:53Nicholas, are you listening to me?
09:55What? Sure. You said something about fishing.
09:58Nicholas, this is important.
10:00We are called to be God's hands and feet on this earth.
10:05See that widow cleaning laundry years ago?
10:08She fell quite ill.
10:10Had no coin to give the doctor.
10:12Someone secret paid her bill.
10:14See that merchant selling jewelry?
10:16He once trod a treacherous road.
10:19Someone came beside the man and helped to bear his heavy load.
10:23I can love because God loves...
10:26Nicholas, are you listening to me?
10:28Whoa! Get a load of that!
10:31Looks like Gustav got himself a fresh batch of workers.
10:35I feel sorry for him.
10:37Why?
10:38Gustav loves nothing but money.
10:40He finds folks who run out of money and out of hope.
10:43Then he works them to the bone.
10:46You there! Pick up those oars! Clean this place up!
10:49Yes, Mr. Gustav, sir.
10:51Daddy!
10:58Oh, no.
11:00You're fired.
11:02But how will I feed my family?
11:05Get off my ship, you fool!
11:08Daddy!
11:11Daddy, are you okay?
11:13Oh, no, it's all right, girls. It's okay.
11:16Good man.
11:18If it's food you need, just knock on my door and ask for Octavius.
11:22He'll see that you don't leave hungry.
11:24Oh, thank you, kind sir.
11:26My family is in your debt.
11:28Debt is a charity while you can give it, little man.
11:32What are you looking at?
11:35Dad, if we keep giving away our fish,
11:38will I end up working for Gustav?
11:41God has blessed our family with much,
11:43but everything we have belongs to him.
11:46He wants us to use what we have to help others,
11:50not to keep it for ourselves.
11:52Are you listening to me?
11:54And realizing that all the young children of the world deserved a better life,
11:58St. Nick resolved to gain weight, grow a beard, and teach reindeer to fly.
12:02Not quite.
12:04Just testing you. You can't teach reindeer to fly.
12:07They gotta eat magic corn.
12:10As unfair as it seems,
12:12this is the world where young Nicholas found himself.
12:25Where are they going?
12:27Oh, great piles of codfish. You scared me, Nick-Nack.
12:30Don't call me Nick-Nack.
12:32The woman's husband is sick. They're going to help.
12:35It seems everyone's getting sick these days.
12:38They should stay at home. What if they get sick?
12:41You know your parents. Wherever there's a need, they'll be there.
12:45Now get to sleep, you little halibut.
12:47Don't call me halibut.
12:49Nickerdoodle?
12:50No.
12:51Nick Jr.?
12:52Please don't.
12:53Nickybopper?
12:54Make it stop.
12:55Okay, Nicholas. Back to bed.
12:59So, anybody up for some hot cocoa?
13:02Is that the end?
13:04It's kind of a European ending.
13:06We're left with more questions than answers.
13:08That's not the end of the story.
13:10We're just coming up to the, uh...
13:13the sad part.
13:15The sad part? What happens?
13:17Is this the part where they don't let Rudolph play in their reindeer games?
13:20That's so insensitive.
13:22No. It's about Nick's parents.
13:24Why would Nick's parents want to play reindeer games?
13:27Not that, Larry. Something happened to Nick's parents.
13:31What?
13:32Well, they did get sick.
13:34And they...
13:35They what, Bob?
13:36Well...
13:37What happened to Nick's parents, Bob?
13:39Well, a great sickness came through their town.
13:42They...
13:43Bob?
13:44They died.
13:47While Nicholas was still a boy, both of his parents died.
13:51He still had plenty of food and a nice house to live in.
13:54But he was an orphan.
13:56A boy with no parents.
13:58Oh, Nicholas. I am so sorry.
14:01What am I gonna do now?
14:04You could answer the door.
14:08Hello, Nicholas.
14:10What do you want?
14:12There's no need to be rude, Nicholas.
14:14I'm here to help you.
14:16Won't you excuse us?
14:18I have some business with a boy.
14:20Fine. Don't mind me.
14:22I'll just be sitting at the dock of the bay.
14:26Wasting time.
14:28I suppose you know you have to run your father's fishing business now, Nicholas.
14:33That's a big job.
14:35What do you mean?
14:37I was just thinking about all those poor, sick, hungry people your parents were always helping.
14:43What about them?
14:44Well, with your parents gone, who will help them?
14:47It's going to take a lot of money.
14:50And a lot of fish.
14:53Sure. I guess I could give you some.
14:58Many blessings.
15:02How can you help anyone if you give everything you have away?
15:07Your parents were always helping.
15:09You better find any spokes some fish.
15:11I don't have any more.
15:15I have to get out of here.
15:23Hey, Nicholas. Where are you going?
15:26I can't stay here, Octavius. I'm leaving Greece.
15:29But Greece is the word.
15:31Way anger, Captain. We're leaving.
15:34You can't do this. Is it because of the nicknames?
15:37Don't call me nicknames.
15:38No. Nicknames is not a nickname.
15:41I'm leaving. I have to go.
15:43I'll come with you.
15:44No, Octavius. You'll only remind me of my parents.
15:49So where are we going?
15:51I don't know. Anywhere but here.
15:54All right, fellas. You heard the man.
15:57Goodbye, Nicholas.
15:59I sure hope you'll find what you're looking for.
16:03This story isn't very Christmassy.
16:05That's because the ship hasn't landed on Peppermint Island yet,
16:08inhabited by Herbie the Yodeling Elf.
16:10There's no such thing, Larry.
16:12They're sailing to the North Pole. Right, Bob?
16:15They don't meet elves and they don't sail to the North Pole.
16:18South Pole?
16:19No.
16:20Winter Wonderland?
16:21Nope.
16:22Please arrest.
16:23The happy young boy who had needed nothing
16:26now found himself with a great big hole in his heart.
16:31Nick and the crew spent several years sailing the Mediterranean,
16:35looking for something that would make him feel happy again.
16:39Until finally, right around the end of the year,
16:42they came to a place called the Holy Land,
16:44the place where Jesus was born.
16:47Nicholas remembered his father always talking about Jesus,
16:50so he decided to go check it out for himself.
16:56All right. Now we're talking.
16:58It's finally feeling Christmassy.
17:01Deck the halls with sacred knick-knacks.
17:04Line our robes with righteous kickbacks.
17:06On we holler day of carols.
17:08Stroll the holy crates and barrels.
17:11Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:13Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:15Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:18Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:20You see, Bob, this is what Christmas is about.
17:22Uh, no, Larry, I don't think...
17:25Seat in the golden grills before us.
17:27Swipe your card and join the chorus.
17:29Follow us in merry measure.
17:32Fill your bags with holy treasure.
17:34Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:36Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:39Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:41Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:48Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:53Thank you very much for coming.
17:55Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
17:58Twist the key, enjoy the drumming.
18:01I have a festive plastic toy
18:04To give to Girl or Boy.
18:06I'll bring them peace and joy.
18:09Oh boy.
18:10Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
18:13Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
18:15Buh-la-la, buh-la-la, buh-la-la, buh-la-la, buh-la-la-la, buh-la-la-la-la buh-la-la.
18:20Buh-la-la, buh-la-la, buh-la-la-la, buh-la-la-la-la.
18:26This stuff doesn't make me feel any happier.
18:29I wonder if anything will make me feel happy again.
18:33Huh?
18:40Where's he going, Bob?
18:42Let's see...
18:45This is a church built on the exact spot in Bethlehem where Jesus was born.
18:50Nativity Chapel? Wow! I wonder if the shepherds stood right here.
18:54Blurry.
18:55I can practically see the wise men.
18:58God loves you. Go in peace.
19:02Oh, God loves you. Go in peace.
19:06Excuse me, ma'am, what are you doing?
19:09I'm feeding the poor.
19:11Excuse me, ma'am, what are you doing?
19:14I'm feeding the poor. What are you doing?
19:17I'm, um, just standing here.
19:19God loves you. Go in peace.
19:21Do you do that to feel happy?
19:23Oh, no. I do it because I am happy.
19:27My love is a gift to them because God's love was a gift to me.
19:32What do you mean?
19:34I can love because God loves me.
19:38I can give because God gave.
19:41Jesus' love is why I'm smiling, why I'm giving every day.
19:49When the clouds are dark above me, when the world is cold and gray,
19:56I remember how He loves me, and again you'll hear me say,
20:04I can love because God loves me. I can give because God gave.
20:11Jesus' love is why I'm smiling, why I'm giving every day.
20:20Sister Claire explained to Nick how Christmas is the time when Jesus came near to us
20:26so that He could show everyone how much He loved them.
20:29So that's why I give to the poor, Nicholas.
20:33I'm so happy about the gift God gave me.
20:36And that's why my parents gave, too.
20:39Nicholas realized he wasn't alone, and he didn't feel like an orphan anymore.
20:44He believed that God sent Jesus for him because God loved him so much,
20:49and he wanted to share that love by helping others in need.
20:53Suddenly, Nicholas knew what he needed to do. It was time to go home.
20:59God loves you. Go in peace.
21:03Okay, I'm ready, too. Check out this Sea of Galilee muffin pan.
21:07You don't bake.
21:08Yet. I don't bake. Yet.
21:14And now it's time for Helpful Humanitarian Songs with Mr. Lunt,
21:18the part of the show where Mr. Lunt comes out and sings a helpful humanitarian song.
21:25Well, he's a mangy old pet.
21:27If you saw him, I bet, you'd walk the other way.
21:34So sad and alone, with his hair overgrown, like a stinky old toupee.
21:43But doggies have feelings, and doggies need love.
21:52And doggies like those deep-fried treats that come from up above.
22:01Oh, donuts for Benny, please give a glaze to make him smile.
22:09Thank you, ma'am, poor troubled beast.
22:12Won't you at least comfort him a while?
22:17Sir, can you spare a donut for Benny?
22:22Please help my doggie friend.
22:25Thank you, kite, sir.
22:27A honey dip would really help his broken heart, oh man.
22:35His broken heart, oh man.
22:41Well, just look at this pup.
22:44He's brightening up.
22:46He's looking not so weak, oh Benny.
22:50His outlook was grim, till you gave pastries to him.
22:54Oh look, he wants to speak.
22:58Oh, doggies have feelings, and doggies need love.
23:07And doggies like sweet doughy treats that come from up above.
23:15Walk me around again, baby.
23:17Around, around, around.
23:18These donuts are dreamy, they're filling.
23:20Baby, no, don't let my feet touch the ground.
23:22I feel like a ship on an ocean of joy.
23:24Ship ahoy! Walk me around again, baby.
23:26Around, around, around.
23:28Maybe you shouldn't have any more donuts.
23:33No, no, no, no, no, don't give him any more.
23:37They make him crazy.
23:39Like Mary Lewis.
23:41No, no more donuts for the dog.
23:44Oh man, this is a terrible life.
23:46Walk me around again, baby.
23:48Walk me around again, baby.
23:50Walk me around again, baby.
23:51Walk me around again, baby.
23:52Walk me around again, baby.
23:53Walk me around again, baby.
23:54Walk me around again, baby.
23:55Walk me around again, baby.
23:56Walk me around again, baby.
23:57Walk me around again, baby.
23:58Walk me around again, baby.
23:59Walk me around again, baby.
24:00Walk me around again, baby.
24:01Around, around, around, around.
24:03This has been Helpful Humanitarian Songs with Mr. Lunt.
24:07Tune in next time to hear Mr. Lunt say...
24:10Don't give donuts to dogs!
24:19Thank you for your devoted service, Captain.
24:21It's good to be home.
24:22You're welcome, young Nicholas.
24:24It's good to be home.
24:28Gustavs?
24:30Gustavs?
24:32Gustavs?
24:34Gustavs!
24:40Don't tell anyone I gave this to you.
24:42Oh no, ma'am, I won't.
24:44Thank you.
24:45You're welcome.
24:51I'll tremble before the great and mighty Mayor Gustav.
24:55Mayor Gustav?
24:57Now, therefore I, Mayor Gustav, do hereby decree
25:02no citizen shall give from one to another a gift of any kind or any value.
25:09Anyone caught in a violation of this decree
25:12shall be subject to a fine of one gold coin.
25:17And if they cannot pay, they will be put in jail.
25:20Forever!
25:26Do gift certificates count?
25:28This is going to make it hard for me to help others.
25:32Octavius, I'm home!
25:34That's great!
25:36Who are you?
25:38That's a good one.
25:39Get back! I know how to use this.
25:42It's good to see you, my old friend.
25:44This would be a lot more tender if I knew who you were.
25:48It's me, Nicholas!
25:51That's for not writing!
25:53Octavius, there's so much to tell you, but that can wait.
25:56That's for not calling!
25:58I came home to continue my parents' work.
26:01You see, we don't give to others because it makes us happy.
26:04We give to others because we are happy.
26:07Because Jesus first loved us.
26:09That rings a bell.
26:11That's what I learned when I was away.
26:13Well, good luck helping people now.
26:15Mayor Gustav is making it hard to do all sorts of good things.
26:19I heard.
26:20I believe God will show me how I can help others, even when it's not easy.
26:24I think I have something that could help.
26:27I've saved it for you.
26:29It belonged to your father.
26:31It's a quote from Jesus, from the sixth chapter of Matthew.
26:35But when you give to the needy,
26:37do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
26:41so that your giving may be in secret.
26:44You know, Nicholas,
26:46what most people saw from your father was only the tip of the iceberg.
26:51What's an iceberg?
26:52I have no idea.
26:53The point is, he helped people in so many ways,
26:57most of which no one knew about.
26:59This is the answer to all our problems, Octavius.
27:02From now on, we help people in secret.
27:05Right-o.
27:06Thanks for not bringing me back a souvenir.
27:12Here's a muffin pan.
27:13Oh, the sea of Galilee.
27:15Delicious.
27:21Ah, you didn't tell me fish had teeth.
27:26I know those girls, always giving things away.
27:30How are people like me supposed to make an honest living
27:33when people are always giving things away?
27:36But no more.
27:38We just have to be patient.
27:43Wait a minute.
27:44What's this?
27:54Ah-ha!
27:55This business is in violation of decree 823602-11.20,
28:00no giving gifts.
28:02Each one of you has three days to pay the fine,
28:05or all three of you will go to jail.
28:08But we don't have any money to pay.
28:10Maybe if you spent more time working and less giving things away,
28:14you wouldn't have that problem.
28:16Three days!
28:23Nicholas?
28:24Is that you?
28:26Put on some weight during your travels?
28:28Maybe a little.
28:29How's business?
28:30Fine, as long as you're not back into giving fish away for free business.
28:36I'm the mayor now, you know.
28:38Uh-huh.
28:41What's this?
28:43That's the third mackerel I've found out here today.
28:46Who's got the slippy fishy fingers?
28:49Who is dropping my fish on the floor?
28:51You drop my fish, you drop my...
28:53That was way too close.
28:55Did you see how Gustav looked at me?
28:57There's got to be some better way of giving things in secret.
29:00I have to help those girls.
29:02You can hide your real identity.
29:04There's got to be something I can wear to hide my real identity.
29:08Maybe make some sort of a disguise.
29:10Maybe some sort of disguise?
29:12Like this, or this, or maybe this.
29:15Larry!
29:16Just moving the plot along, Bob.
29:18I've got it!
29:19Octavius, we have work to do.
29:21Oh!
29:36Look at there!
29:37It's... it's...
29:39Definitely not Santa.
29:46I feel ridiculous.
29:47Come, sidekick.
29:48We're off to give in secret.
29:50Time to blend in with the night.
29:53You'll call this blending?
30:02Dashing through the street, to do a noble deed.
30:05Determined in advance, to help the girls in need.
30:08Gladden's friend excites, your sidekick's by your side.
30:12If you see a soldier, you better run and hide.
30:15Nicholas, Nicholas, you are quite a sight.
30:18Sneaking round the streets of Greece, to help the girls tonight.
30:21Nicholas, Nicholas, you know how to live.
30:24You see one who has a need, and just like Christ, you give.
30:31Quick, throw me another piece of gold.
30:33Uh-uh.
30:35Oh, no!
30:41Father, look!
30:43See what I found in my stocking?
30:45This is wonderful.
30:46Who did this?
30:47Who did this?
30:48I gotta find a new costume.
30:50Nicholas, did you hear?
30:52Someone saved my daughter.
30:54Now she won't have to go to jail.
30:56That's wonderful news.
30:57I need to find and thank the person responsible.
31:00What? Why?
31:02He saved my daughter.
31:03I have to thank him.
31:05Be careful with that tuna.
31:07They don't grow on trees, because if they did, that would be one stinky tree.
31:11Well, good luck finding him.
31:14Could have been anybody.
31:15Oh, Gustav, there you are.
31:17One gold coin for my daughter.
31:21You may have saved one, but you still need coins for the other two,
31:25and they won't be so lucky.
31:27What makes you so sure?
31:29I'm posting guards around the old man's house tonight,
31:33to catch this secret giver.
31:36I will not be made a fool.
31:45Oh, for goodness sake.
31:49Don't say a thing.
32:04We need to cause a distraction.
32:07Like this outfit isn't distracting enough?
32:09That's it. Show yourself, then run for it.
32:12We'll meet back at the house.
32:14What if I get caught?
32:15Know that it will be for a good cause.
32:17Why does that not make me feel better?
32:22Oh no, the place is surrounded.
32:25I had better run for it.
32:32I said I had better run for it.
32:36Gustav wants to catch you to end your helpful ways.
32:39So you wear disguises to keep his guards at bay.
32:43One got a piece of bling, the others need one too.
32:46Don't fail us, young Nicholas, we all depend on you.
32:52Don't fail us, young Nicholas, we all depend on you.
32:55Father, come quickly.
32:58Where are you? Who are you? I must thank you.
33:05Opa!
33:06Nicholas, there you are. Did you hear? A miracle has happened.
33:09Despite my house being surrounded, we've been blessed again.
33:12My second daughter is safe.
33:14That's fantastic. Do you know who did it?
33:18No, but I'm determined to find out.
33:21A one, a two, a three, a four. You didn't do your job no more.
33:26Here you go, Gustav. Another gold coin.
33:31Who is this mystery man?
33:33No matter. Tonight the house will be surrounded by the whole Roman army.
33:38If he wants to succeed, he had better fall from the sky.
33:47Hey, I kind of like that outfit.
33:49Yeah, me too. It fits.
33:51The others were so constricting.
33:54The little guy looks like an elf.
33:56Is this how it all started? Is there going to be snow?
33:58I'd love for there to be snow.
34:00No, Larry, there's not going to be any...
34:04Imagination.
34:05Love it.
34:07Snow or no snow, no one here is moving until we catch this mysterious giver.
34:19Don't worry, my sweet. Whatever angel God has sent to help us will not fail.
34:26Hey, Bob, can the youngest girl's stocking be red? Huh? Can it?
34:29No, Larry, her stocking can't be...
34:32Why do I even bother?
34:36What are you doing?
34:37Wait for it.
34:40Now it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
34:42Men, be on the alert. We're dealing with a professional.
34:47Oh, no. Now what are we going to do?
34:49There's got to be a way.
34:53The chimney.
34:54You have got to be kidding me.
35:06Up on the housetop in jolly dress.
35:08Out jumps good old Nicholas.
35:10Down through the chimney a bag of gold.
35:13Now these girls can be poor...
35:15Father, look!
35:18Saved! All my girls are saved!
35:21Impossible! Right under our noses! Spread out! Find him! He can't have gotten far.
35:27Yes!
35:28Down through the chimney...
35:29Yes, we are! Come here, girls.
35:31Look at this.
35:40Over here! They went this way.
35:53He seems to know our every move.
35:55You don't think this snow has anything to do with it, do you?
35:59Oops.
36:00Your imagination is not helping.
36:02But it's so festive.
36:05Split up!
36:19I think I lost them.
36:20There you are!
36:23There, girl!
36:26Oh, my bad.
36:31To the rooftops!
36:36And that is how Santa got his laugh.
36:38Uh, Larry?
36:39Hold on, Bob. Just moving the story forward.
36:41I think the story is about to move us forward.
36:51They're getting away!
37:00Whoa!
37:07Would this be a bad time to talk about my Christmas list?
37:23Whoa!
37:24Watch out!
37:31Watch out!
37:33Giving sure is dangerous!
37:35And thrilling!
37:39Aim for the shrubbery!
37:45And lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.
37:48Larry, this is no time for...
37:52Whoa!
38:01Whoa!
38:07What do my wandering eyes...
38:11A fly on a sleigh with six-a-tonne of rain here?
38:15I gotta go lay down.
38:21Thank goodness for snow.
38:23You hear that, Bob?
38:24Thank goodness for snow.
38:25You roll your dice, you move your mice.
38:28Nobody gets hurt.
38:29I beg of you.
38:30Let me thank you for the brave kindness you have shown to my family.
38:34Ho, ho, ho!
38:35Don't give it a second thought, my good man.
38:38The pleasure was all ours.
38:40How can I ever repay you?
38:42There's no need.
38:43We're just showing you the love God showed us.
38:46If you want to repay me, go and do the same thing.
38:49That I will, sir.
38:51That I will!
38:54You know, I think your father would be proud of you, Nicholas.
38:58Thanks a lot, Octopus.
39:01Hey, watch it, Nickelback.
39:03Oh, yeah?
39:04What are you going to do about it, October?
39:06Nick, Nick, Betty, what?
39:07Octagon.
39:08Nickel, nickel, eat a pickle.
39:10And that, kids, is the story of St. Nicholas.
39:14Wow!
39:15I had no idea.
39:16Not many people do.
39:17Tell us about Reindeer, Bob.
39:19Another time, Larry.
39:21We need to head to the Christmas Eve service.
39:23Thanks, Bob.
39:24I sure learned an awful lot about St. Nicholas tonight.
39:26I'm glad, Annie.
39:28Hey, Jimmy.
39:33What are you guys doing?
39:35Seriously?
39:36That's a great idea.
39:37I'm in.
39:44Thank you, Mrs. Hubert, for that great idea.
39:47Thank you, Mrs. Hubert, for that lovely rendition of Wild by My Sheep.
39:52You may have noticed that we're not using candles this year due to the unfortunate incident last year.
40:07What do you want?
40:08Is this enough to fix the truck?
40:10What kind of a joke is this?
40:12Take your penny someplace else.
40:14We're closed.
40:15Will this help?
40:18No.
40:25We have to help out others in need, Dad.
40:28And that's what we do ever since I was a little boy in Cebu, Ohio, at the Baptist church.
40:36A few songs, of course.
40:38The appearance of angels.
40:40The tidings of gladness.
40:43And of evil.
40:45Where'd everybody go?
40:52Tell me, what do you do with this?
40:54Giving you money to fix a crummy old truck that's not even yours.
40:58Jesus gave everything.
41:00When we know how much Jesus loves us, it makes us want to share his love with others, just like St. Nicholas did.
41:06I was going to use this to buy a new pair of Christmas socks.
41:10For my collection.
41:13Well, you're still a dollar short.
41:18Hey, everybody, looky here.
41:25Hmm.
41:31Ah!
41:33Gah!
41:35Huh?
41:36Ah!
41:38Souls that beheld him.
41:46Hmm.
41:47Huh?
41:55Ho, ho, ho.
41:57Merry Christmas.
42:00Uh-oh.
42:01Everybody, hide!
42:04What?
42:05My truck!
42:06And somebody delivered all my packages!
42:08Wow, I can't believe it!
42:10This is amazing!
42:12Mom, Dad, look in the house!
42:19It's beautiful.
42:21Thank you, Daddy.
42:23Merry Christmas, family.
42:25Merry Christmas.
42:54What if I told you
42:57You had the power
43:00To give someone hope
43:03Beyond their wildest dreams
43:06What if I told you
43:09It's right there in your hands
43:12In your hands
43:16It's hard to imagine
43:19How something so small
43:22Can make all the difference
43:25Tear down the tallest wall
43:28What if December
43:31Looked different this year
43:35What if we all just
43:38Give this Christmas away
43:42If there's love in your heart
43:46Don't let it stay there
43:50Give this Christmas away
43:54And your life will be changed
43:57By the gifts you'll receive
44:00When you give this Christmas away
44:19It's feeding me hungry
44:22It's serving me poor
44:24It's telling me you're a friend
44:27You're not forgotten anymore
44:30It's doing what love does
44:33Even when no one's watching you
44:40Give this Christmas away
44:44If there's love in your heart
44:48Don't let it stay there
44:51Give this Christmas away
44:55And your life will be changed
44:58By the gifts you'll receive
45:01When you give this Christmas away
45:12For God so loved the world
45:17He gave us all his soul
45:23So we could be his hands
45:27His feet, his love
45:31It is enough
45:36What if I told you
45:39You have the power
45:41To give someone hope
45:44Far beyond their wildest dreams
45:47What if December
45:50Looked different this year
45:54Yeah, what if we all just
45:57Give this Christmas away
46:01If there's love in your heart
46:14If there's love in your heart
