The Christmas Toy Page #3

Synopsis: When no people are around, the toys still play in the playroom. But since a toy will be frozen forever if a person catches it out of position, they have to be very careful. It's Christmas Eve, and Rugby the Tiger remembers how he was the Christmas Toy last year, and thinks he's going to be unwrapped again. And it's up to Apple the Doll, whom Rugby supplanted as favorite toy, to tell him what's in store. But Rugby won't believe her, and tries to get into the Christmas package and lets Meteora, Queen of the Asteroids loose. Unfortunately, she doesn't know she's a toy, and thinks she's landed among aliens. And it's up to Apple, Mew (the Cat's toy mouse), and the other toys to get Rugby out of the box and Meteora back in it before they're found and frozen.

Did the kids remember to put out

some milk and cookies for Santa?

You've got to be kidding.

Can you imagine them forgetting?

Not really,

but it's worth checking.

Eva, what kind of cookies

did you buy?

Never you mind.

Now I'll just use

my incredible speed

and courage to get downstairs

before they

ah-ah-ah-choo! Mew!

- Hi.

- Shh!

Mew, what are you doing here?!

I thought you might need

some help.

Well, I don't,

especially from a cat toy!

What I need is to get

to that Christmas tree.

Someone took an enormous bite

our of one of the cookies.

Sure it wasn't you?

Of course I'm sure.

But I did finish it

and put another one out.

- Are they gone?

- Ah-choo!

You're all heart.

This isn't how it's supposed

to be at Christmas.

Guess I wouldn't really know.

'Course not.

You're just a...

Just a cat toy.

How would you know

what it's like

to have a special day

just about you?

Guess I couldn't.

What's it like?

# You know a big band

was playing #

# With trumpets a-blare. #

# Spotlights were shining. #

# You shoulda been there. #

# Streamers were flyin'

and banners unfurled, #

# And guess who was feeling

on top of the world. #

# No Christmas tree

ever felt so tall, #

# I was the greatest

Christmas toy of all. #

Gee, Rugby.

You really are the most

special toy in the world!

Thank you.

All that's gonna happen

tomorrow morning?

Well, sure.

It will be just like I told you.

But that's why I've got to get

out of here into that box!

But we're locked in.

Fear not!

- Where there's a cat toy...

- Ah-choo!

...there's a way!

Okay, now, just pull.

Yep, pull.

That's it. That's it.

That's it.

That was great!

Well, that always works

for the cat.

Maybe being a cat toy

isn't so bad after all.

No, no.

It really isn't.

Except for the smell.

He could be a lot nicer,

but he's the closest thing

to a friend I've got.

We've just got to do something

about Rugby.

- Oh, I agree.

- Yeah.

If it was possible to go out

and rescue him,

well, that's exactly

what I would do.

Yeah, right...

If it was possible,

which it most definitely is not.

Who says it's not?!

Hey! Hey, everybody!

Belmont has a great idea!

We're gonna go rescue Rugby!

But... but it's...

it's not possible!

# When there's a big job

to be done, #

# Or a race that must be won, #

# No matter how impossible

it seems. #

# If there's a feeling

in your heart #

# On your mark,

get set to start #

# And head on out

to try to reach your dreams. #

# You've got to #

# Try the impossible. #

# Dare the incredible, #

# Climb aboard

and take a ride. #

# Hope that luck

is on your side, #

# Try the impossible. #

# 'Cause if you do #
