Ho, ho, ho!
You're late!
Where is Fred?
And Natalie, Harry,
the whole board.
Cutbacks,
I'm Constance.
What couldn't wait until after
Christmas, Madame Chairperson?
Affairs?
Namely the selfish attitude
displayed by the world's children.
The board is of the opinion that
you share some responsibility
in this erosion of the
true spirit of Christmas.
The true spirit of Christmas
is the giving of oneself.
give me this and give me that.
I don't understand.
Children sit
on your knee.
Yes.
And tell you
what they want.
Yes.
And you give it
to them.
Yes.
Course sometimes you
choose not to.
Connie...
Is this
about the pony?
It's Constance...
And that has nothing to
do with my feelings today!
Changes need to
be made.
What kind
of changes?
It's time for you to
step down.
Ho, ho ho ho ho!
Who will replace me?
No one.
You're canceling
Christmas?
Just the Santa part.
Of course the board
your image for merchandising
purposes and so on.
But your actual services,
will no longer be needed.
Paragraph four of my
contract clearly states
that I cannot be
forcibly retired.
I'm well aware
of paragraph four.
The terms also state,
that you are to foster
an attitude of holiday
cheer year round.
Christmas in all the young.
Yes, well we'll
settle for three.
Farley Morgan, and his best and
only friend, Steven Rojack.
Two students at Riverbrook Academy,
Two uncontrolled
and uncontrollable hellions.
This one is
a little different.
Adam Claymore.
His mother is a teacher
at Riverbrook Academy;
he was put into a wheelchair
last year after a car accident
that also took
the life of his father.
His anger has shut him
off from Christmas,
and what's worse,
from his mother.
Provide verifiable proof that your
influence has inspired an attitude
in accordance with the
true meaning of Christmas
and you get to
keep your job.
And if I don't?
Christmas is cancelled.
You have thirty days.
Thirty days, that's right
up 'til Christmas Eve.
I'm well aware.
Oh and
one more thing...
You're prohibited from revealing
your true identity to them.
What's this?
It's a phone. Don't tell me
you're that far behind the times.
I know it's a phone. Why
are you giving it to me?
If you should succeed, at any of your
three tasks, this phone will ring.
Good luck.
Thank you. Merry
Christmas, Connie.
Merry Christmas,
Santa.
Three rings.
Randal. You were eavesdropping.
I thought you might
need backup.
This Constance woman
is a real, a real...
Bah Humbug?
Exactly!
Failure is not
an option.
Here.
What in tarnation
is this?
While she was speaking, I was doing
research on Farley and Steve.
I hope you find that
very useful.
What do I do
with this?
You plug it into
your laptop.
I have a laptop?
Okay, let's go.
Time is a wasting.
You're in charge.
Oooohhhh! Now that
wasn't so bad, was it?
by reindeer.
I miss the
old chin warmer.
You are going to
get used to it my friend.
I understand that we
have to be incognito.
I know the importance
of not being recognized.
But why the
ridiculous clothing?
Randal, you know how we look
on the outside doesn't matter.
It's what's inside
that counts.
What name are you gonna
use when we're here?
Kris Frost.
Ha ha ha ha
ha ha ha ha!
all by yourself?
