Twice Upon a Christmas (2001) Movie Script
ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS,
SANTA AND MRS. CLAUS
LIVED HAPPILY AT THE NORTH POLE
WITH THEIR TWO DAUGHTERS,
RUDOLFA, WHO WAS NAUGHTY,
AND KRISTIN, WHO WAS NICE...
BUT ALL WAS NOT WELL.
SANTA, FEARING THAT PEOPLE
HAD LOST THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT,
WAS MAKING PLANS TO RETIRE,
AND RUDOLFA, SEEING HER CHANCE,
HATCHED A PLAN
TO RUIN CHRISTMAS FOREVER,
AND SHE ALMOST DID,
UNTIL KRISTIN SAVED THE DAY,
RESURRECTING SANTA'S HOPE
BY GETTING A MORTAL FAMILY
TO EMBRACE
THE TRUE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS,
AND, ALONG THE WAY,
SHE FELL IN LOVE
WITH THIS FAMILY,
WIDOWED DAD, BILL,
AND HIS CHILDREN,
KYLE AND BRITTANY.
THUS, KRISTIN SACRIFICED
HER OWN IMMORTALITY
AND ALL MEMORY OF WHO SHE WAS
TO SAVE CHRISTMAS
AND FOIL
RUDOLFA'S SINISTER PLAN,
BUT THAT WAS LAST YEAR,
AND THIS
ISTWICE UPON A CHRISTMAS.
[ ]
AS USUAL...INCREDIBLE.
CONTROL YOURSELF.
I REMEMBER
WHEN YOU TAUGHT KRISTIN
TO DO THAT.
IT SEEMS SUCH A LONG TIME AGO
SINCE WE LAST SAW HER.
YES,
BUT SHE'S VERY HAPPY
WHERE SHE IS.
YES, I SUPPOSE SHE IS.
THAT'S VERY TRUE.
[ DEEJAY ]:
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, WILLOWBROOK.
IT'S CHRISTMASTIME IN OREGON
AGAIN,
42 DEGREES DOWNTOWN.
HERE'S ANOTHER SONG TO PUT YOU
IN THAT CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.
[ ]
CAN I PLEASE HAVE THE TAPE?
OKAY,
NOW, HOLD STILL, KYLE.
THANK YOU, BRITTANY.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
BRITTANY'S NEXT.
OH, DEFINITELY, KYLE.
THAT'S HOW THE GAME WORKS.
WE WRAP UP YOU,
AND THEN YOU GET TO WRAP UP
SOMEONE ELSE.
I SAW THAT.
[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]
TRUCE, TRUCE, TRUCE.
HELLO?
HEY, BRIT. IT'S DADDY.
HI, DADDY.
ASK HIM WHEN HE THINKS
HE'LL BE HOME.
WHEN WILL YOU BE HOME?
I'VE GOT TWO MORE MEETINGS,
SO...I GUESS ABOUT 7:00.
HONEY, CAN KRISTIN
HEAR YOU?
NO.
OKAY.
DO YOU THINK SHE KNOWS ANYTHING?
I DON'T THINK SO.
AND KYLE HASN'T SAID ANYTHING,
RIGHT?
FOR A CHANGE, NO.
YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAVE TO GO.
SEE YOU LATER. BYE.
WHAT WAS THAALL ABOUT?
NOTHING.
YOU KNOW, KRISTIN,
IT'S NOT THAT EASY
TO SURPRISE DAD.
BELIEVE ME. I'VE TRIED.
YOU KNOW,
HE'S BEEN SO BUSY WITH WORK.
I BET HE'S PROBABLY
FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT IT.
RACHEL'S DAD
DOESN'T CELEBRATE BIRTHDAYS
ANYMORE.
HIS LAST BIRTHDAY CAKE
HAD SO MANY CANDLES ON IT,
IT SET OFF
THE SMOKE ALARMS.
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS
CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY.
IT'S SUCH
AN IMPORTANT DAY.
IT REMINDS US OF THE MIRACLE
EACH ONE OF US IS,
ALL THE SPECIAL
THINGS
THAT COME TOGETHER AND MAKE YOU,
YOU.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH HOW OLD YOU ARE.
IT'S ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL
LIFE IS.
MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK
TO RACHEL'S DAD.
MAN, WHAT HAPPENED
IN HERE?
SMALL PAPER FIGHT,
UNCLE JOHNNY.
WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME?
OW.
HEY, NO PAPER FIGHTS
WITHOUT ME.
PAPER CUT!
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?
I HATE THIS!
AND YOU,
YOU HAD BETTER GIVE SANTA
A GOOD REPORON THE JOB I'VE BEEN DOING.
SANTA...
THAT OLD MAN
IS GOING TO KILL ME.
LOOK AT ME.
I'M A WRECK.
FIRST, I HAVE TO POLISH
ALL THE RIBBON
ON THE PRESENTS,
AND THEN I HAVE TO CLEAN UP
AFTER ALL OF THOSE BIRDS.
SEVEN SWANS A-SWIMMING,
SIX GEESE A-LAYING,
FOUR CALLING BIRDS,
THREE FRENCH HENS,
TWO STINKING TURTLE DOVES,
AND THAT PARTRIDGE
IN THAT ROTTEN PEAR TREE.
IT'S TOO MUCH...
IT'S DAD.
IT'S DAD. SHH.
I'M HERE.
HERE I AM, DAD.
I...WHOO, I'M WORKING AWAY,
JUST LIKE YOU TOLD ME TO.
YES, I CAN SEE.
WHEW.
ALMOST DONE, DON'T YOU THINK?
I HOPE YOU'VE LEARNED SOMETHING
FROM DOING ALL THESE CHORES.
OH, I HAVE.
I REALLY, REALLY HAVE.
AND WHAT IS ITHAT YOU'VE LEARNED,
RUDOLFA?
WELL, I'VE LEARNED
THAT RIBBON IS ONLY SHINY
IF YOU BUFF IT...A LOT.
YES. WHAT ELSE?
THOSE BIRDS EAT WAY TOO MUCH.
HAVE YOU LEARNED YOUR LESSON,
RUDOLFA?
LESSON?
YEAH, DON'T GET CAUGHT.
THAT'S THE LESSON.
I'M SORRY. WHAT WAS THAT?
OH, YES, I DID.
I LEARNED A LESSON.
DEFINITELY.
ARE YOU SORRY
FOR WHAT YOU DID
LAST YEAR?
I'M VERY, VERY, VERY SORRY.
VERY WELL, THEN.
I RELEASE YOU
FROM ALL FURTHER CHORES.
OH, THANK YOU, THANK YOU,
THANK YOU, DADDY.
OH, THANK YOU,
AND I'LL BE GOOD.
I REALLY WILL, DAD.
WELL, YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO BE.
I'M GOING TO NEED
YOUR HELP THIS YEAR
WITH KRISTIN GONE.
I'M HERE.
I'M THE ONE
THAT STAYED LOYAL
TO THE POLE,
AND TO YOU.
NO, NO, NO,
I DIDN'T GO ANYWHERE.
I WAS HAPPY
JUST BEING HERE
WITH YOU AND MOTHER.
YES, IT'S TRUE.
YOU DID STAY HERE.
YOU STAYED HERE,
EVEN THOUGH YOU WANTED
TO TURN CHRISTMAS DAY
INTO CHRISTMAS FOOLS' DAY!
WELL, YEAH,
BUT THAT'S ALL BEHIND US NOW,
RIGHT?
WELL, IT'S GOING
TO HAVE TO BE.
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
DO SOME OF THE DUTIES
THAT WERE KRISTIN'S.
WELL, OF COURSE.
I'LL HAVE TO
TAKE HER PLACE
IN SOME THINGS.
I'LL BE HAPPY TO.
FILLING KRISTIN'S SHOES
IS A DIFFICULT TASK.
THAT'S BECAUSE SHE'S GOSUCH BIG FEET.
I'M SORRY.
WHAT WAS THAT?
OH, I SAID, UM...
IT'S A CHALLENGE
I HOPE I CAN MEET.
WELL, YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.
WE'RE BEHIND AGAIN
THIS YEAR.
I JUST CAN'T SEEM
TO GET ORGANIZED.
WELL, WE'RE BEGINNING
RIGHT AWAY,
SO GET YOURSELF READY.
OH, DON'T WORRY.
I'LL BE READY.
YOU CAN BET I'LL BE READY.
GUYS...
WE WISH YOU
A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
WE WISH YOU
A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
WE WISH YOU A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
AND MANY MORE YEARS
WELL, THAT'S A NEW ONE.
COME ON, DAD.
BLOW OUT THE CANDLES.
OKAY.
WHOO!
WHOO!
I'LL GO GET THE PRESENTS.
THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC, KRISTIN.
I'LL SAY. WHERE'S
EVERYONE ELSE'S PIECE?
HERE YOU GO.
WHOA.
OKAY, OPEN THEM.
OKAY.
DO I SEE A GIFT HERE
FROM KRISTIN?
MINE IS THE ONE
WITH THE GREEN BOW.
YOU KNOW, I'M SURE
IT'S A WONDERFUL PRESENT,
BUT IT'S NOT THE ONE
I'M LOOKING FOR.
SCOOT YOUR CHAIR BACK A LITTLE
FROM THE TABLE.
OKAY.
LIKE THIS?
A LITTLE MORE, I THINK.
OKAY.
GREAT.
ARE YOU OKAY, BILL?
OH, YEAH, YEAH.
NOW, THE GIFTHAT I'M LOOKING FOR FROM YOU
IS...IS REALLY JUST ONE WORD,
JUST "YES."
I'M ASKING YOU TO MARRY ME,
AND BY "ME," I MEAN "WE,"
OBVIOUSLY.
OH, BILL.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
DID YOU TWO KNOW ABOUT THIS?
I HELPED PICK OUT THE RING.
IT'S WONDERFUL...
AND YOU TWO...
OH, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
I LOVE YOU, BILL.
AM I GOING TO GET THE GIFTHAT I'M LOOKING FOR?
I'M SORRY, BILL.
NO, I...I CAN'T.
EXCUSE ME.
WELL, WHO WANTS CAKE, HUH?
YOU DON'T WANTO BE OUR MOM?
OF COURSE I DO,
SWEETHEART.
I DON'T WANT ANYTHING
ELSE IN THE WORLD.
THEN TELL ME WHY,
KRISTIN,
BECAUSE
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
IT'S ME.
DON'T YOU KNOW
HOW MUCH I'VE WANTED
THIS MOMENT?
HOW CAN I BE YOUR WIFE
AND BE HERE FOR THE KIDS
IF I DON'T KNOW WHO I AM?
OKAY, SO MAYBE
I'LL TRY TO CALL
THE NANNY AGENCY AGAIN
AND SEE
WHAT HAPPENS.
I'VE CALLED THEM AGAIN,
AND THEY STILL HAVE NO RECORD
OF ME
EVER BEING REGISTERED THERE,
AND I DON'T KNOW
WHO ELSE TO CALL.
I HAVE NO INFORMATION
TO START WITH,
NO HOMETOWN, NO ANYTHING.
WE KNOW EVERYTHING
WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOU NOW.
YOU ARE A WARM, WONDERFUL,
LOVING WOMAN
WHO I LOVE,
WHO WE LOVE,
AND WHO WE NEED,
KRISTIN,
AND WANT IN OUR LIVES
FOREVER,
AND, YOU KNOW,
YOU DON'T HAVE A MEMORY
OF WHO YOU WERE
WHEN YOU CAME IN OUR FRONT DOOR,
AND I DON'T CARE,
AND WHATEVER YOU WERE
BEFORE THEN,
IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE
A DIFFERENCE
TO ME OR THE KIDS.
YEAH, WE DON'T CARE
WHO YOU ARE.
HE MEANS
THAT WE KNOW YOU
AND LOVE YOU
ALREADY.
BUT IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO ME.
I MEAN, TONIGHT,
YOU HAD A BIRTHDAY,
AND, KYLE, YOU HAVE ONE,
AUGUST 24th,
AND BRITTANY,
MARCH 11th.
CAN YOU TELL ME
WHEN MY BIRTHDAY IS?
I DON'T EVEN KNOW
HOW TO DRIVE A CAR.
I MEAN,
HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?
WHERE DID I LIVE
THAT I NEVER LEARNED
HOW TO DRIVE?
HEY, I'LL BE LEARNING
IN A COUPLE OF YEARS.
I'LL DRIVE YOU AROUND.
EVERYTHING HERE IS SO WONDERFUL,
BUT, LATELY,
FINDING OUHAS SEEMED
MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT.
I MEAN, FACE IT.
HAVE YOU EVER MEANYONE LIKE ME,
SOMEONE WHO KNOWS NOTHING
ABOUT HER PAST?
LET'S JUSMAKE A DEAL.
A DEAL?
A DEAL.
YOU GIVE ME
MY "YES,"
AND I PROMISE YOU
THAT BEFORE WE GET MARRIED,
WE'LL FIND OUT ALL ABOUT YOU.
WHAT IF WE DON'T LIKE
WHAT WE FIND?
I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT.
YOU KNOW,
I HAVEN'T TOLD YOU THIS BEFORE,
BUT, SOMEHOW, I FEEL
LIKE THERE'S
SOMETHING DIFFERENT,
BUT WHAT IF IT TURNS OUTHAT I HAVE A REALLY WEIRD PAST?
WHAT IF I DID
SOMETHING TERRIBLE,
AND THAT'S WHY
I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER WHO I AM?
KRISTIN,
I PROMISE YOU, WE WON'T.
THERE'S NO WAY THAT YOU COULD BE
THE PERSON YOU ARE NOW
AND THEN TO HAVE BEEN
SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENBEFORE,
AND NO MATTER WHAT,
NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE
THE WAY I FEEL ABOUT YOU.
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
IS THAT MY "YES"?
YES.
OH...
WE'RE GOING TO GET MARRIED,
AND WE'RE GOING TO LIVE
HAPPILY EVER AFTER.
JUST LIKE IN THE FAIRY TALES?
OH, YEAH,
JUST LIKE IN ALL THE STORIES
OF MAKE-BELIEVE.
OH.
IF YOU WANDRIVING LESSONS,
I'LL MAKE THEM
ONE OF YOUR
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
WOW.
WE'D BETTER GO FINISH DESSERBEFORE UNCLE JOHNNY DOES.
I HEARD THAT.
TOO LATE.
WE HAVE FIND OUT, KYLE.
WE HAVE TO HELP HER.
WAHOO, ARE YOU IN THERE?
NO. I'M NOT HERE.
WE HAVE WORK TO DO.
ALL THE ELVES
THAT HELPED YOU OUT LAST TIME
GOT INTO TOO MUCH TROUBLE.
NO COOKIES FOR THREE MONTHS!
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I'VE SUFFERED?
DO YOU KNOW
WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH?
MAKING REINDEER-POO PIES?
CLOSE ENOUGH,
AND NOW
I'M GOING TO GET MY REVENGE.
OOH, I DON'T THINK
REVENGE IS ALLOWED
AT THE NORTH POLE.
I'LL MAKE IWORTH YOUR WHILE.
GET A HAMMER AND A CHISEL
AND COME WITH ME.
ALL THOSE YEARS
OF TRYING TO GET RID OF HER,
AND SHE DID IT ON HER OWN.
SHE LEFT OF HER OWN FREE WILL,
WENT TO BE WITH THAT FAMILY,
THE MORGANS.
WELL, GOODBYE, MS. PERFECT.
YOU'RE NOW MS. MORTAL,
AND THAT IS GOING TO MAKE IT ALL
SO MUCH EASIER.
WELL, DO YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES IEVEN BETTER?
SOMEBODY IS FINALLY
GOING TO BUY US
SOME SNOWBLOWERS?
SHE DOESN'T EVEN REMEMBER
THAT SHE EVER LIVED HERE,
OR THAT SANTA'S HER FATHER,
I'M HER SISTER,
OR THAT SHE HAS ANY POWERS.
SHE'S NOT GOING TO SAVE
THE POLE.
NO, NOT THIS YEAR.
SANTA WANTS ME TO HELP HIM.
I'M GOING TO HELP HIM,
ALL RIGHT.
THE OLD MAN IS LOSING IT,
AND I'M GOING TO
HELP HIM LOSE IT FOR GOOD.
YES.
THIS WILL DO.
THIS IS WHERE WE'LL START.
HERE IT IS.
GOOD AS NEW...ALMOST.
IT'S EVEN BETTER THAN NEW.
YEAH.
KRISTIN...
YEAH?
WOULD YOU PUT IT ON?
OH, I'D BE HONORED.
IT'S OUR TREE NOW.
YEAH.
WE ALL HAVE SO MUCH
TO BE THANKFUL FOR,
AND CHRISTMAS GIVES US
A MOMENT TO REMEMBER THAT,
AND TO REMEMBER
HOW BEAUTIFUL IT IS
THAT WE HAVE EACH OTHER.
LAST CHRISTMAS WAS SO GREAT,
KRISTIN,
BECAUSE
WE GOT YOU AS OUR PRESENT.
WHICH IS NOT BAD,
AS FAR AS PRESENTS GO.
IT'S A SHAME KRISTIN'S
STUFF GOT DESTROYED.
THERE WAS PROBABLY SOME I.D.
THAT WOULD HELP US FIND OUWHERE TO START LOOKING
FOR HER PAST.
YOU KNOW, JOHNNY...
WHAT, WHAT, WHAT?
I KNOW, MY BIG MOUTH...
NO, ACTUALLY,
THIS TIME, I THINK
YOUR BIG MOUTH IS RIGHT.
WE ALL HAVE TO DO
WHATEVER WE CAN
TO HELP KRISTIN FIGURE OUWHERE SHE COMES FROM.
THAT INCLUDES YOU, RIGHT?
YEAH.
I HAPPEN TO HAVE
SOME SPARE TIME NOW.
I COULD LAUNCH
AN ALL-OUT ATTACK
ON THE CAUSE.
THEN GO FOR IT.
I'M ALL OVER IT.
THIS IS
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING NOW.
REMEMBER THIS?
KRISTIN'S.
YES.
SHE WAS SO YOUNG WHEN
YOU GAVE THAT TO HER.
IT SEEMS SO LONG AGO.
IT WAS
A LONG TIME AGO.
WHAT DO YOU THINK SHE'S DOING
RIGHT NOW?
PROBABLY THE SAME THING
WE'RE DOING,
DECORATING THE TREE.
HERE'S RUDOLFA'S DOLL.
I'M STILL NOT QUITE SURE
WHY SHE DID THAT TO IT.
YOU KNOW,
IT'S AMAZING HOW TWO CHILDREN
CAN BE SO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
YES, ISN'T IT?
CAN'T WE LET CHRISTMAS BE
THIS YEAR?
LET IT BE?
WHY SHOULD I LET IT BE?
GO.
I WAS NEVER ANY GOOD
AT CHRISTMAS, ANYWAY,
AND LOOK,
IT'S EVERYWHERE.
I'M DROWNING
IN IT.
GO.
WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO
AT THE NORTH POLE
IF YOU'RE NO GOOD
AT CHRISTMAS?
CAN'T YOU GO
ANY FASTER?
NOT BY MYSELF.
I'D BE HAPPY
TO HELP,
BUT MY HANDS
HAVE BEEN WORKED TO THE BONE
BY SANTA
AND ALL THE CHORES.
LOOK AT THAT NAIL.
GO.
SMALLER PIECES,
WAHOO.
THEY HAVE TO FIINTO THE MAIL.
GO.
KEEP GOING.
YOU'RE GETTING THERE.
WHERE IS "THERE"?
DID SHE LIVE THERE?
DID SHE LIVE--
YEAH. DID SHE EVER LIVE THERE?
YEAH, I CAN SEND YOU
A PICTURE.
YEAH, I'M LOOKING FOR A KRISTIN.
K-R-I-S...
NO, NO, NO, NOT KATHY, NOT KYLA,
NOT KARLA.
NO, KRISTIN CLAUS.
WELL...
NO, I'M NOT TRYING
TO SELL ANYTHING.
ARE YOU SURE?
THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
SHE'S GOING TO BE OUR MOM.
OKAY. THANKS.
WELL,
I'D BETTER CHECK MY LIST...
TWICE.
OH, I COULD HAVE SWORN
THERE WAS A PROFESSIONAL
VIDEO CAMERA HERE.
PERHAPS OVER HERE...
BUT I'M SURE
THERE WAS A CAMERA HERE
SOMEWHERE.
WELL, HE SAID HE WOULD BE HERE.
BEFORE OR AFTER
MY HERNIA?
WAHOO,
TURN THAT THING ON
AND SEE IF IT WORKS.
OH, MR. GLITCH,
I'M DELIGHTED YOU CAME.
YOU GOT ME HERE. WHAT?
WELL, YOU'RE THE ABSOLUTE BESAT ELECTRONICS,
AND WE NEED YOUR EXPERTISE.
NORMALLY, I FIX THEM
SO THEY DON'T WORK.
YES,
AND YOU DO THAT SO WONDERFULLY,
BUT DOESN'T THAT MEAN
THAT YOU KNOW
HOW TO MAKE THINGS WORK
AS WELL?
IF THERE WAS SOMETHING IN IFOR YOU...
LIKE WHAT?
OH, I KNOW--
A NO-MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.
OOH, OOH,
OR A NICE
NASTY LITTLE STATIC SHOCK.
YES, WELL,
SOMETHING LIKE THAT...
YES, YES, YES.
OUCH.
ARE WE READY?
YES, YES.
CUE RUDOLF.
RUDOLF!
OH, GO SEE WHAT HAPPENED
TO THAT STUPID REINDEER.
YES!
I LOVE WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.
RUDOLF WON'T COME OUOF THE BARN.
NEVER WORK WITH ANIMALS...
[ BANGING ]
OW, OW, OW!
NO, STOP, RUDOLPH.
PLEASE, STOP.
OW, OW, OW.
OR ELVES.
WAHOO, GET BACK IN HERE
SO WE CAN GET THIS
THING FINISHED.
HE WON'T COME OUT.
ALL RIGHT, EVERYBODY.

GOOD MORNING, GUYS.

THIS WAY.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE THERE'S A WAY
TO DO EVEN BETTER...
OR WORSE.
HOW?
WELL,
WHY STOP WITH THE BUILDINGS?
WHY NOT SELL
EVERYTHING ABOUT THE NORTH POLE?
SANTA'S OWN ARTIFACTS,
SANTA'S OWN POSSESSIONS,
HIS CLOTHES...
GET RID OF IT ALL.
THERE'LL BE NOTHING LEFT.
THERE'LL BE NO CHANCE
FOR A CHRISTMAS THEN.
SANTA'S GOING
TO NOTICE.
WELL, HE MIGHT.
I HAVE TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING
TO MAKE HIM BELIEVE
THAT IT'S ALL DISAPPEARING
FOR A REASON.
I HAVE IT.
BUT I'M GOING TO NEED
AT LEAST FIVE MILLION
TEDDY BEARS.
YES, FIVE,
AND COULD YOU PUT THEM
IN A BOTTOMLESS BAG, PLEASE?
BECAUSE THEY TAKE UP LESS SPACE.
NO, THAT'S NOT ALL.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE
IN THE PENGUIN LINE?
BECAUSE I THINK
THEY'RE GOING TO BE POPULAR
THIS YEAR.
WHY? BECAUSE I'M SANTA.
THAT'S WHY I KNOW.
WHY DO WE HAVE TO
GO THROUGH THIS EVERY YEAR?
DON'T YOU BELIEVE IN ME?
[ HONKING ]
HE MUST BE IN A HURRY.
THE LIGHHAS BEEN GREEN.
FOR QUITE
SOME TIME NOW.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO
PUT IT IN PARK
EVERY TIME YOU STOP.
A LITTLE PATIENCE, PLEASE.
I'M JUST LEARNING.
WELL, LEARN
HOW TO USE THE GAS PEDAL!
HURRY UP!
CHRISTMAS IS COMING!
ALL THE MORE REASON
FOR SOME UNDERSTANDING.
SHALL WE
TRY TO PARK?
OOH, WELL, THAT SHOULD BE FUN!
JUST PUT IN IN REVERSE
AND WE'LL BACK INTO THE SPACE.
JUST BACK IN.
GOOD!
YOU'RE DOING GOOD.
HEY...
NOT SO FAST!
NOT SO FAST!
THAT WASN'T RIGHT, WAS IT?
HAVE YOU EVER
DRIVEN ANYTHING
BEFORE?
A REINDEER SLEIGH.
OKAY...OKAY.
I LOST MY PEN.
OH, I'LL GET YOU ONE.
THANK YOU.
PARALLEL PARKING, FAIL.
BEAUTIFUL!
THESE WILL GO SO QUICKLY.
YOU'VE DONE WELL.
AND REMEMBER,
EVERY ELF THAT HELPS
GETS A VACATION
ANYWHERE
ON THE EQUATOR,
WHERE IT'S WARM.
SANTA NEVER DID
THAT FOR YOU,
DID HE?
MY, MY, MY.
WELL, LOOKEE HERE.
IT'S KRISTIN'S DOLL
FROM WHEN SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL.
IT'S A SHAME
SHE ISN'T HERE
TO SEE ME DISMANTLE
THE POLE.
IT WOULD MAKE IT ALL
SO MUCH MORE DELICIOUS
TO SEE THE LOOK OF HORROR
IN HER EYES
WHEN IT'S ALL GONE...
JUST LIKE SHE IS--GONE.
BYE-BYE.
BEFORE I BEGIN,
I'D LIKE
TO THANK BILL
FOR GIVING ME
THE OPPORTUNITY
TO REALLY RUN
WITH THIS THING.
THAT'S FINE, JOHNNY.
WHAT WE REALLY WANT TO KNOW NOW
IS WHAT YOU FOUND OUT.
I WENT THE USUAL AVENUES--
SOCIAL SECURITY APPLICATIONS,
HOSPITALS IN THE AREA
WHO MIGHT HAVE HAD A RECORD
OF AN ACCIDENT VICTIM
WHO HAD LOST HER MEMORY.
CLAUS AS A SURNAME HERE,
IN THE STATE,
AND, IN FACT,
ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
AND, OF COURSE,
WE KNOW IT'S CLAUS WITH A "C"
INSTEAD OF A "K,"
OR A FINAL "E."
THERE'S THE FINAL "E".
I CHECKED WITH MISSING PERSONS
AT THE LOCAL
AND FEDERAL LEVEL.
THERE WAS A CLAUS IN PORTLAND
THAT FIT THE PROFILE,
AND A CLAUS IN OHIO
THAT LOOKED PRETTY GOOD,
BUT THOSE DIDN'T PAN OUAS EVER HAVING
A KRISTIN CLAUS IN THE CLAN.
THEY DIDN'T?
NO.
SO YOU DIDN'T STOP THERE,
DID YOU, UNCLE JOHNNY?
OF COURSE NOT.
IT TURNS OUT THERE IS
A WHOLE GROUP OF CLAUS's
IN A SMALL TOWN IN ALASKA.
CLAUS AFTER CLAUS
AFTER CLAUS.
SO THAT'S WHERE
YOU FOUND ME?
WELL...
JOHNNY, PLEASE, PLEASE
WHAT DID YOU FIND OUT?
NOTHING.
I DIDN'T FIND ONE LEAD
FOR A KRISTIN CLAUS.
NO SCHOOL RECORDS,
NO SOCIAL SECURITY,
NO MEDICAL RECORDS.
IT'S LIKE THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE
FELL INTO A BLACK HOLE.
I MEAN,
IF SHE WASN'T SITTING HERE,
I'D TELL YOU
KRISTIN CLAUS DOESN'T EXIST.
IN FACT, I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT I'M GOING TO DO,
AND I KNOW IT SOUNDS CRAZY,
BUT I'M GOING
TO INVESTIGATE THIS
BECAUSE I THINK
KRISTIN IS A CLONE.
IT WOULD REALLY EXPLAIN SO MUCH.
NO PARENTS.
NO RECORDS.
I THINK SHE MAY BE
A GOVERNMENT EXPERIMENT....
OR MAYBE AN ALIEN.
IT'S ENOUGH.
THAT'S ENOUGH.
OH...OH, OH.
I DON'T KNOW WHY
EVERYONE CAN'T SEE IT.
IT'S SO PLAIN.
WHAT'S THAT, BRITTANY?
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
AH! YOU DO?
SURE.
IT'S OBVIOUS.
KRISTIN IS SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
KRISTIN CLAUS.
SANTA CLAUS'S DAUGHTER.
THAT'S WHY WE CAN'T FIND
ANY REFERENCE OF HER HERE.
THAT'S WHY HER FAVORITE COLORS
ARE RED AND GREEN.
SHE WASN'T EVEN BORN HERE.
SHE WAS BORN AT THE NORTH POLE.
SHE LIVED THERE
UNTIL SHE CAME TO LIVE WITH US.
SWEETHEART, THAT'S...
THAT'S GOING TO BE
PRETTY HARD TO PROVE.
IT'S JUST LIKE
UNCLE JOHNNY'S
CLONE THEORY.
YEAH, WELL,
AT LEAST CLONING IS REAL.
WHO'S EVER SEEN SANTA CLAUS,
LET ALONE
HIS DAUGHTER?
OOPS. SORRY.
BRITTANY?
IT IS SIMPLE, ISN'T IT?
CHRISTMAS IS ALMOSTHE ONLY THING I KNOW.
AND WHY WOULDN'T I BE
SANTA'S DAUGHTER?
SO YOU BELIEVE ME?
EVERYTHING YOU SAID MADE SENSE.
I KNEW YOU WOULD.
SOME THINGS YOU CAN'T PROVE.
YOU'VE JUST GOT TO BELIEVE.
IF YOU HAVE PROOF,
YOU DON'T NEED FAITH.
THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN, RIGHT?
BRITTANY,
I NEED TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.
I WANT TO BELIEVE YOU,
BUT I GUESS THE TRUTH IS
THAT WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING
AS IMPORTANT TO ME AS THIS IS,
EVEN FOR ME TO BELIEVE,
I NEED SOME PROOF.
SO YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME EITHER?
THE IMPORTANT THING IS
IS FOR YOU TO KEEP BELIEVING,
NO MATTER WHO ELSE
BELIEVES OR NOT.
IT'S THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE
WHO ARE ALWAYS
REWARDED WITH THE TRUTH.
SO YOU GO ON BELIEVING,
BRITTANY.
THERE ISN'T ANYTHING
MORE IMPORTANT IN THE WORLD.
KRISTIN?
YEAH?
YOU AREN'T GOING TO LEAVE US,
ARE YOU?
LEAVE?
WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IDEA?
BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN
IF WE DIDN'T FIND OUWHO YOU ARE.
YOU MIGHT LEAVE...
AND I DON'T WANT TO LOSE
MY MOM AGAIN.
OH, NO. THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
WHAT HAPPENED TO MY GLASSES?
OH, WELL.
DON'T TELL ME.
WHERE DID I PUT THE KEY?
I'M LOSING EVERYTHING
THESE DAYS.
HELLO, DAD.
OH, RUDOLFA.
DID YOU GET THE
LETTERS ORGANIZED?
OH, YES, DAD. I'M ON IT.
WORKING ALL THE TIME.
CONSTANTLY.
RELENTLESSLY.
WERE YOU GOING INTO
THE PRESENT ROOM?
I WOULD,
BUT I SEEM TO HAVE MISPLACED
THE KEY.
OH, THAT ISN'T LIKE YOU, DAD.
YES. I KNOW.
I SEEM TO
HAVE MISPLACED
A NUMBER
OF THINGS LATELY--
ALL KINDS
OF THINGS.
MM.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
OH, I DON'T KNOW.
LISTEN, POP,
FAR BE IFOR ME TO SAY.
SPIT IT OUT, RUDOLFA.
WELL, YOU KNOW,
I REMEMBER THAT I WAS TALKING
WITH FATHER TIME ONCE
AT THE SUMMER SOLSTICE
BARBECUE...
NOW, WHAT WAS IT HE SAID?
YES, WHAT DID HE SAY?
OH, YES!
THAT IF SANTA
STARTS TO LOSE THINGS
AND THE NORTH POLE AS WE KNOW IKIND OF BEGINS TO DISAPPEAR...
YES?
WELL, IT MEANS
THAT SANTA IS BEING REPLACED.
REPLACED?
WELL, I'M SANTA CLAUS.
I'VE BEEN
SANTA CLAUS FOREVER.
YES, WELL...
NOTHING GOES ON FOREVER.
WELL, IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME.
OH, IT COULDN'BE, DAD.
I MEAN,
THEY WOULDN'T REPLACE YOU.
WHY WOULD THEY?
I'VE DONE
NOTHING WRONG.
WELL, YOU'VE DONE
A GREAT JOB.
OF COURSE YOU HAVE.
OF COURSE, IT IS
DOWN TO THE WIRE
EVERY YEAR,
RUSHED,
HANGING BY A THREAD,
NO, IT COULDN'T BE.
IT'S JUSOUR IMAGINATION.
WELL, SORRY
TO INTERRUPT.
I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
I'VE BEEN WAITING 15 MINUTES.
YOU WERE 20 MINUTES EARLY.
I LIKE TO BE
ON TIME.
YOU WILL BE
IN FIVE MORE MINUTES.
HE SAID IT WON'T BE
MUCH LONGER NOW.
YOU THINK THIS IS
GOING TO WORK?
I KNOW THATHIS ALL SEEMS CRAZY.
I MEAN, IT SEEMS CRAZY,
BUT I DON'T KNOW
WHAT ELSE TO TRY...
I WILL TRY ANYTHING
THAT MIGHT HELP.
BUT YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT, TOO,
RIGHT?
YEAH. OH YEAH.
WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER.
LOOK, THE THING IS
JUST TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND.
I HEARD ABOUT THIS DOCTOR
FROM THIS FRIEND...
EX-FRIEND OF MINE...
AND IT KIND OF
WORKED FOR HER.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN KIND OF?
WELL, MY EX-FRIEND,
SHE WENT THROUGH IT,
AND FOUND OUMORE ABOUT HER REAL SELF,
AND NOW SHE HAS DEVOTED
THE REST OF HER LIFE TO SAVING
THE TWO-TOED
PYGMY NEWT OF BORNEO
FROM EXTINCTION.
BILL?
HARLEY?
IT'S BEEN
A LONG TIME.
I'VE BEEN
OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
BORNEO.
AND KRISTIN...HOW ARE YOU?
IT'S GOOD
TO SEE YOU, HARLEY.
THANK YOU.
YOU LOOK WONDERFUL.
YOU BOTH DO.
WELL, I'VE GOT TO GO.
OH, ARE YOU HERE TO SEE...
OH, EXCELLENT.
SHE CHANGED MY LIFE.
BYE.
THE DOCTOR WILL SEE YOU NOW.
WELL, THERE'S NOTHING
TO BE AFRAID OF.
WELL, ACTUALLY,
THERE'S LOTS TO BE AFRAID OF.
THAT'S WHY
I DON'T LEAVE THIS ROOM.
BUT THERE'S NOTHING
TO BE AFRAID OF
AS FAR AS HYPNOTISM
IS CONCERNED.
NOW, I BELIEVE
WE'RE DOING A DOUBLE?
YES.
EXCELLENT.
I MUST WARN YOU
THAT NO ONE CAN BE SURE
WHAT HE WILL FIND
UNDER PAST-LIFE HYPNOSIS,
BUT REST ASSURED
THAT WHAT YOU FIND
IS SURE TO BE ENLIGHTENING.
SHALL WE BEGIN?
SURE.
OKAY.
NOW, I'D LIKE YOU
TO JUST SIT BACK...
AND RELAX.
GAZE AT THE CRYSTAL,
AND LISTEN ONLY
TO THE SOUND OF MY VOICE.
HEAR ONLY THE SOUND OF MY VOICE.
HEAR JUST MY VOICE
AND NOTICE THAT YOUR FEEAND LEGS ARE FEELING HEAVY...
AND YOUR SHOULDERS
ARE HEAVY ALSO,
AND LET THEM JUST REST,
AND RELAX
AS YOU HEAR MY VOICE...
AND EVEN CLOSE YOUR EYES
AS YOU LISTEN.
YOUR EYELIDS FEEL HEAVY.
RELAX.
JUST RELAX...
AND NOW YOU ARE SLEEPING...
AND YOU FEEL FREE.
IT FEELS LIKE A DREAM.
AND YOU ARE FREE
TO LOOK WITHIN...
AND SEE...
WELL, THAT'S ENOUGH FOR TODAY.
WELCOME BACK.
WELL, WHO'D LIKE
TO BEGIN?
DO YOU WANT TO GO?
IT WAS...
IT WAS GREAT.
IT WAS REALLY INTERESTING.
I WAS...
I WAS A ROMAN.
THEN I WAS A...
I WAS A KNIGHT.
AND I WAS A FARMER.
I WAS A PIONEER.
AND I WAS THIS...
BUSINESSMAN--
OLD, OLD-FASHIONED BUSINESSMAN.
YOU DIDN'T WASTE ANY TIME,
DID YOU, YOU BUSY BOY?
KRISTIN,
DID YOU EXPERIENCE ANY INSIGHTS?
I SAW MYSELF IN THE SNOW.
YOU SAW YOURSELF IN THE SNOW?
YES.
AND WHAT ELSE?
NOTHING ELSE.
I WAS IN THE SNOW.
PLAYING IN THE SNOW.
IT WAS WHITE
ALL AROUND ME.
I PLAYED IN THE SNOW.
WELL, I MUST SAY,
I'VE NEVER HAD A READING
LIKE THIS BEFORE.
IN TERMS OF AN INTERPRETATION
OF WHAT THAT IS,
I THINK WE CAN SAY THAT SNOW
IS IMPORTANT TO YOUR IDENTITY.
MS. LILLY,
IF A PERSON HAS NO PAST,
NOT JUST CAN'T REMEMBER,
BUT HAS NONE...
IS THAT POSSIBLE?
WELL, IT WOULD BE VERY UNUSUAL.
CAN A PERSON
JUST APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE?
YOU HAVE TO COME
FROM SOMEWHERE.
WE JUST DON'T KNOW WHERE YET.
HERE YOU ARE.
YOU'RE A REAL PERSON,
AREN'T YOU?
YES.
YES, SHE IS.
SHE IS A REAL PERSON.
PERHAPS ANOTHER SESSION
MIGHT REVEAL MORE.
OR YOU MIGHT TRY PRAYING.
KEEP MOVING.
FASTER. FASTER.
[ CELLPHONE RINGING ]
WHAT?
WELL, HELLO, DONALD?
MAY I CALL YOU DONALD?
YOU JUST DID.
WHO IS THIS?
YOU'RE GOING TO LIKE
WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO HEAR.
WHAT? LIKE THE SOUND
OF ME HANGING UP?
NO, NO, NO. WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
YOU KNOW THE
"PIECE OF THE POLE" CAMPAIGN?
IT'S BEEN A HUGE SUCCESS...
YEAH, I'VE HEARD THAT.
WELL, THAT'S ME,
AND AT THE RATE
THINGS ARE SELLING,
BY CHRISTMAS EVE,
THE NORTH POLE WILL JUST BE
ONE BIG VACANT LOT...
WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNOF REAL ESTATE POTENTIAL.
I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE HEADING.
YOU DO?
WHY WOULD YOU CALL ME
IF YOU WEREN'INTERESTED IN...
HIGH-RISE,
TIME-SHARE CONDOS.
HIGH-RISE,
TIME-SHARE CONDOS.
EXACTLY!
TWO WEEKS OF CHRISTMAS
ANY TIME...YEAR ROUND.
I LIKE IT.
YOU DO?
I SAID THAT.
OH, OF COURSE YOU DO.
WE'LL CALL I"RUDOLFA'S NORTH POLE HOTEL
AND CASINO".
YOU MEAN
"TRUMP'S NORTH POLE TOWER".
SOMETHING DOESN'T FEEL
QUITE RIGHT THIS YEAR.
WHAT'S THAT?
CHRISTMAS.
YOU KNOW,
SOMETHING'S MISSING.
SOMETHING ABOUT IFEELS WRONG.
LIKE I FEEL
SOMETHING ABOUT ME
IS WRONG.
KRISTIN, I THINK--
I REALLY THINK--
IT'S JUST--
JUST THE SITUATION.
NO, I'VE BEEN THINKING, BILL.
I DON'T WANT TO HURT ANYONE...
BUT I DON'T KNOW
IF IT GOOD FOR ANY OF US
FOR ME TO BE HERE RIGHT NOW.
MAYBE THE BEST THING IS
FOR ME TO GET AWAY FOR A WHILE.
KRISTIN, WHAT FOR?
I DON'T KNOW.
I SEEM TO KNOW LESS ABOUT MYSELF
THAN EVER BEFORE.
I HAVE ABSOLUTELY
NO IDEA WHO I AM.
I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER
IF I EXIST AT ALL.
HEY, HEY, YOU EXIST.
YOU'RE HERE.
I CAN TOUCH YOU.
YOU'RE REAL.
WE HAVE TO FACE IT.
SOMETHING
IS WRONG, BILL.
SOMETHING IS WRONG
WHEN UNCLE JOHNNY
THINKS I'M A CLONE
OR AN ALIEN,
AND HE MIGHBE RIGHT.
MAYBE IF I GET AWAY,
I CAN FIND OUSOMETHING ABOUT MYSELF,
IF THAT'S ALL
I'M CONCENTRATING ON.
NO, KRISTIN.
THAT IS NOTHE ANSWER.
COME ON, LET'S NOT GIVE UP.
SOMETHING'S GOING TO BREAK.
I KNOW IT WILL.
LEAVING'S
NOT GOING TO SOLVE ANYTHING.
STAY, OKAY?
WE LOVE YOU.
AND WE WANT YOU HERE.
I WANT YOU HERE.
I PROMISE YOU.
WE'LL FIND OUEXACTLY WHO YOU ARE
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
I'M TRYING TO BELIEVE THAT.
SO BELIEVE IT.
WHERE IS ALL THIS FAITH
YOU ARE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT?
MAYBE IT'S TIME
YOU HAD A LITTLE FAITH YOURSELF.
WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THE PRICE.
ISN'T THAT NICE?
BUY A PIECE OF THE POLE
AND REMEMBER,
YOU CAN HAVE THE NORTH POLE
RIGHT IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND.
SO ORDER NOW
IT'S TIME TO BUY
WE ARE CARRYING A BIG SUPPLY
DON'T DELAY
THEY WON'T LAST
THEY'RE VERY POPULAR
AND GOING FAST
THESE PIECES THAT ARE GENUINE
REAL SANTA'S VILLAGE BRICKS
EACH GUARANTEED AND CERTIFIED
NO LIES, NO FAKES, NO TRICKS
PAY WHAT YOU CAN--
WELL,
I'VE LOOKED AND I'VE LOOKED,
BUT MY GLASSES AREN'T HERE,
NOR ARE
ANY OF THE WRITING UTENSILS
IN MY OFFICE.
AND THAT'S NOT ALL.
MANY OF THE GIFTS
FROM THE PRESENT ROOM ARE GONE,
AND SEVERAL OF MY BOOKS
ARE MISSING.
WELL, THAT IS STRANGE.
IT WOULD HELP TO EXPLAIN
SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS.
I'VE NOTICED
SOME OF THE THINGS
FROM KRISTIN'S ROOM
ARE MISSING ALSO.
KRISTIN'S ROOM?
YES.
AND WHOLE SIDES OF BUILDINGS
ARE MISSING.
SO THE POLE
IS DISAPPEARING.
LET'S NOT JUMP
TO ANY CONCLUSIONS.
BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY THEY DON'WANT ME
TO BE SANTA ANYMORE.
IT'S TRUE I'VE BEEN
TARDY ON OCCASION,
BUT I'VE ALWAYS
GOT THE JOB DONE.
THERE IS SOMETHING
ELSE AS WELL.
WHAT'S THAT?
MOST OF YOUR UNDERWEAR
SEEMS TO BE MISSING.
THEY WOULD DO THAT?
AND THAT'S REALLY HOW I WORK,
WHICH I GUESS IS A HOLD-OVER
FROM WHEN I WAS
A JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL.
WHICH I HAD TO STOP.
THIS JUST SEEMED LIKE
THE MOST LOGICAL TRANSITION.
SO, SHALL WE GET STARTED?
OF COURSE, YOU KNOW
THAT EVERYTHING
DEPENDS UPON YOUR COLORS.
WELL, WE'RE GETTING MARRIED
ON CHRISTMAS DAY,
SO I GUESS IT'S PRETTY MUCH
ALL ABOUT RED AND GREEN.
YES, THAT WOULD BE
THE "TRADITIONAL" WAY TO GO...
OF COURSE, THERE ARE
MANY DIFFERENT SHADES
OF THOSE COLORS.
OKAY.
HOW ABOUONE OF THE SHADES
THAT PEOPLE USUALLY
ASSOCIATE WITH CHRISTMAS?
YES...
YOU ARE THE CLIENT.
IT IS YOU TWO WHO ARE
GETTING MARRIED?
YEAH.
WE HOPE.
YOU HOPE?
THE RETAINER IS BINDING.
CAN WE JUSCONTINUE, PLEASE?
OF COURSE.
NOW, HOW MANY BRIDESMAIDS
ARE YOU PLANNING?
BRIDESMAIDS?
I REALLY DON'T KNOW
THAT MANY PEOPLE.
THERE'S BRITTANY,
NATURALLY.
AND NO OTHER
FAMILY OR FRIENDS?
WE ALWAYS PLANNED,
LIKE, A SMALL WEDDING.
MY SON, KYLE,
WILL BE THE BEST MAN.
MY MOM AND DAD,
MAYBE THE KIDS'
UNCLE JOHNNY.
NO ONE ELSE ON YOUR SIDE?
NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS?
NO.
WELL, WHY DON'T WE
GO INTO
THE SOCIAL HALL?
I'M SURE THERE IS SOMETHING
HAT COULD BE DONE IN THERE.
GREAT.
COME WITH ME.
JUST KIND OF
GO WITH ME HERE.
I'M SEEING
RED AND WHITE,
MAYBE A CHRISTMAS
TREE HERE.
KRISTIN?
BILL, IF YOU DON'T MIND
JUST GOING AHEAD,
I'LL BE RIGHT IN.
I JUST NEED A MOMENT.
BILL?
COMING.
YES?
LORD, I ASK FOR YOUR HELP.
I PRAY FOR YOUR GUIDANCE.
PLEASE SHOW ME.
HELP ME KNOW WHO I AM.
KRISTIN?
KRISTIN?
HEY.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GOING TO COME HELP ME
IN THE SOCIAL HALL.
I AM. I'M READY.
THAT'S GOOD.
DID SOMETHING HAPPEN?
DID YOU REMEMBER SOMETHING?
I REMEMBERED TO HAVE HOPE.
I REMEMBERED TO TRUST.
YOU KNOW, CHRISTMAS IS COMING,
AND I INTEND TO MARRY YOU.
I INTEND TO MARRY YOU VERY MUCH.
THEN WE'D BETTER HURRY.
UM...
DID I MENTION THAT MY PARENTS
ARE COMING IN A FEW DAYS?
NO, BUT I CAN'T WAITO MEET THEM.
OKAY.
VERY GOOD. VERY GOOD.
HERE'S THE CONTRACFROM DONALD.
OUTRAGEOUS!
THIS IS NOWHAT I AGREED TO.
OH...
OH, GLITCH.
WHAT A SURPRISE.
I WASN'T EXPECTING
TO SEE YOU.
GIVE ME A MOMENTO GO FIX MYSELF.
NO, NO, NO, NO.
DON'T BOTHER.
I JUST CAME BY
TO GIVE YOU MY BILL.
BILL?
I THOUGHT YOU AND I
MEANT SO MUCH MORE
TO EACH OTHER THAN THAT.
I MEAN, WE HAVE
SO MUCH IN COMMON.
DESTRUCTION.
MEGALOMANIA.
WE BOTH LOVE
TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE
MISERABLE.
IT'S TRUE,
YOU'RE A FUN DATE,
BUT I'M GLOBAL.
YOU CAN'T KEEP UP.
BUT CAN'T WE TRY?
HURRY UP.
WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
OH, GLITCH? GLITCH?
WHOA. LOOK AT THIS STUFF.
THIS IS REALLY COOL.
SHE'S GOING TO LOVE
THIS STUFF.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
"FROM DADDY TO KRISTIN,
"THOSE WHO BELIEVE
ARE ALWAYS REWARDED
WITH THE TRUTH."
THAT'S FUNNY.
WHAT?
WHAT'S ON THIS DOLL.
IT'S THE EXACT SAME THING
KRISTIN SAID TO ME
THE OTHER DAY,
AND IT'S INSCRIBED "TO KRISTIN."
YEAH, RIGHT.
"FROM DADDY
TO KRISTIN."
YOU KNOW
SOMETHING WEIRD?
YOU THINK I'M RIGHT,
DON'T YOU?
YOU KNOW IT.
YOU FEEL IT, TOO.
SANTA'S DAUGHTER
IS IN THE HOUSE.
I'M RIGHT, I'M RIGHT.
MY BROTHER BELIEVES ME.
IT'S A MIRACLE.
RIGHT.
OH, MY GOD,
I'M RIGHT!
CALM DOWN.
LET'S JUST SAY
FOR A SECOND THAT I DO.
HERE'S THE PROBLEM.
WHAT?
WE CAN'T TELL ANYBODY.
WHY NOT?
WHY NOT?
'CAUSE EVERYBODY
WILL THINK WE'RE CRAZY.
THAT'S WHY NOT.
YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT.
NO, I'M DEFINITELY RIGHT.
YOU SWEAR
YOU WON'T TELL ANYBODY?
OKAY.
IT'S FOR EVERYBODY'S
OWN GOOD.
I MEAN, I'M GOING
TO HIGH SCHOOL NEXT YEAR.
I'VE GOT TO START PLANNING
MY SURVIVAL,
AND TELLING PEOPLE
THAT I LIVE
WITH SANTA'S DAUGHTER
PROBABLY NOT GOING TO GET ME OFF
TO THE START I NEED.
BUT STILL...
IT'S THE COOLEST SECREIN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
YOU TWO
ARE UP EARLY.
WE HAVE AN EARLY
CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR YOU.
WELL,
I THINK IT'S BETTER TO WAIT.
WE THINK YOU'LL
WANT TO SEE THIS.
OKAY.
"TO THE KRISTIN
WE KNOW AND LOVE.
BRITTANY AND KYLE."
THAT IS SO SWEET,
YOU GUYS.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
I'M KRISTIN.
KRISTIN CLAUS.
I AM SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
I WAS BORN AND RAISED
AT THE NORTH POLE.
I'M IN CHARGE
OF THE MAIL DEPARTMENT.
ALL THE LETTERS
FROM CHILDREN ALL OVER THE WORLD
COME TO ME.
I HAVE...
I HAVE POWERS.
DON'T THINK TWICE
WE DON'T CARE
ABOUT THE PRICE...
I HAVE A SISTER NAMED "RUDOLFA".
BUY A PIECE OF THE POLE
IT'S NOT TOO LATE.
YOU CAN STILL GEYOUR PIECE OF THE POLE,
THOUGH AT THIS LATE DATE,
THERE ISN'T MUCH LEFT.
WHO KNOWS,
MAYBE SANTA
WILL HAVE TO DELIVER
YOUR PIECE OR ARTIFACHIMSELF.
AFTER ALL,
WHAT ELSE IS HE DOING?
DID THIS COME FROM HER?
YEAH.
IT CAME WITH
A FEW OTHER PIECES
OF THE POLE.
WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE
THE PERFECT GIFT FOR YOU.
EVERYBODY HAS THEM.
THEY'RE LIKE
THE HOTTEST THING.
THERE MUST BE THOUSANDS
OF PIECES OF THE POLE HERE...
ALL OVER THE WORLD.
MORE LIKE MILLIONS.
BUT WHAT ABOUTHE NORTH POLE...
IF ALL THIS STUFF IS HERE,
WHAT'S LEFT THERE?
WHAT ABOUT MY MOM AND DAD?
IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS EVE.
HOW CAN THERE BE A CHRISTMAS
IF THERE IS NO NORTH POLE?
I'VE GOT TO GET BACK
TO THE POLE.
WE HAVE TO GO NOW.
WE?
OF COURSE "WE".
WE'RE A FAMILY, RIGHT?
WE'RE GOING TOGETHER.
DON'T YOU WANT TO GO?
ARE YOU KIDDING?
GO TO THE NORTH POLE?
LET'S GO!
THIS IS GREAT.
HOW DO WE GET THERE?
I REMEMBER NOW.
I REMEMBER EVERYTHING.
I KNOW HOW TO GET US THERE.
BRITTANY, I AM SORRY
THAT I DOUBTED YOU.
YOU WERE RIGHT.
IT'S NOT PROOF,
IT'S FAITH.
I JUST NEEDED
MORE FAITH.
OH, BUT WE HAVE TO
TELL YOUR DAD.
I CAN'T WAIT TO TELL HIM.
I KNOW WHO I AM!
BILL!
HONEY? HONEY, WAKE UP.
DAD, WE HAVE
SOMETHING TO TELL YOU.
WHAT, WHAT, WHAT?
WHAT'S WRONG? WHAT IS IT?
HEY, DID YOU REMEMBER SOMETHING?
I KNOW, BILL.
I KNOW WHO I AM.
THAT'S GREAT.
WHO?
BRITTANY WAS RIGHALL ALONG.
I'M KRISTIN CLAUS.
I'M SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
I REALLY AM.
THAT'S GREAT.
IT ALL CAME BACK TO ME
WHEN THE KIDS GAVE ME THE DOLL
THEY GOT FROM THE NORTH POLE.
IT'S MY DOLL
FROM WHEN I WAS SMALL.
THAT'S SOMETHING.
I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT,
BUT WE HAVE TO GO.
OKAY.
AND WHERE ARE WE GOING?
THE NORTH POLE.
THE PLACE IS BEING SOLD OFF
BY KRISTIN'S SISTER, RUDOLFA.
AND WE HAVE TO
HELP KRISTIN
FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO
TO SAVE IT.
WITH MY SISTER
SELLING OFF MILLIONS
OF PIECES OF THE PLACE,
WHO KNOWS WHAT'S LEFT?
CAN YOU IMAGINE?
I'M TRYING.
EVERYBODY
HAS TO GET DRESSED.
WE'VE GOT TO GET GOING.
THERE'S NOA MOMENT TO LOSE.
YOU DON'T KNOW MY SISTER.
BILL, BRITTANY,
ARE YOU GUYS READY?
OKAY, OKAY, OKAY.
HERE I AM.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH, I'M FINE.
I'M BETTER
THAN ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE GETTING MARRIED
FOR SURE, RIGHT?
WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
I'M GREAT.
YOU DON'T BELIEVE
I'M SANTA'S DAUGHTER, DO YOU?
IF THAT IS WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE,
THEN THAT IS
WHO I BELIEVE YOU ARE.
OKAY. LET'S GO.
NOW WE'RE GOING
TO BE BACK
IN TIME FOR
THE WEDDING, RIGHT?
'CAUSE MY PARENTS
ARE IN TOWN.
WE'RE TRYING TO SAVE CHRISTMAS
RIGHT NOW, BILL.
I WANT TO BE MARRIED TO YOU
MORE THAN ANYTHING,
BUT AT THIS MOMENT,
THERE IS SOMETHING VERY SERIOUS
HAPPENING TO MY HOME,
AND BECAUSE MY HOME
IS THE NORTH POLE,
IT'S IMPORTANT TO EVERYBODY.
WE'RE GOING,
AND IF YOU BELIEVE
I AM WHO I KNOW I AM,
YOU'LL BE GOING WITH US.
OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
I BELIEVE YOU.
OKAY.
BRITTANY?
OKAY, EVERYBODY,
OW, CLOSE YOUR EYES,
AND BELIEVE.
BELIEVE.
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE.
OKAY, KRISTIN?
COME ON, GUYS.
THE GAME IS UP, ALL RIGHT?
GUYS?
SNOW.
"FROM DADDY TO KRISTIN,
"THOSE WHO BELIEVE
ARE ALWAYS
REWARDED WITH THE TRUTH."
THIS IS
THE NORTH POLE?
FORGET MERRY.
THIS IS
SCARY CHRISTMAS.
WHERE'S DAD?
MAYBE MY POWER
WASN'T STRONG ENOUGH
TO GET US ALL HERE.
WELL, I'M GOING
TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING
SO I CAN TELL HIM
ABOUT IWHEN WE GET BACK.
ME TOO,
ALTHOUGH I MAY LEAVE
THIS PART OUT.
YEAH.
IT'S WORSE THAN I THOUGHT.
DAD?
MOM?
COME WITH ME.
DAD!
NO, NO IT COULDN'T BE.
DAD, IT'S ME.
IT'S KRISTIN.
KRISTIN.
ARE YOU BACK?
HAVE YOU COME BACK?
YES, DAD. I'M HERE.
WHAT CAN I DO?
THERE'S NOTHING
THAT CAN BE DONE.
BUT WHERE'S MOTHER?
SHE'S PACKING WHAT LITTLE
THEY'VE LEFT US.
WE'RE LEAVING.
EVERYONE ELSE
HAS ALREADY GONE...
I GUESS I KNEW THIS
WOULD HAPPEN ONE DAY.
THE NEW SANTA IS
OUT THERE RIGHT NOW,
GETTING THE GIFTS READY,
MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY,
JUST LIKE I USED TO DO.
WHAT NEW SANTA?
WHEN THEY DON'T WANT YOU,
IT'S CRUEL,
EVEN FOR SANTA,
BUT I HAD A LONG RUN,
BUT YOU LOSE A STEP...
AND THEY PUSH YOU
DOWN THE STAIRS.
DAD, THAT'S NOT TRUE.
IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK
IS GOING ON?
IT ISN'T.
DAD, IT'S...
IT'S RUDOLFA...
I KNOW SHE'S DONE
HER FAIR SHARE OF MISCHIEF
IN THE PAST.
BUT, NO, THIS TIME, IT'S ME.
I'VE DONE SOMETHING
TO DESERVE THIS,
BUT I--
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
OOH!
DAD, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET--
KYLE AND BRITTANY.
BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN.
OH, DEAR.
I DON'T HAVE
THE LITTLEST THING
TO GIVE THEM
FOR CHRISTMAS.
IT'S SO EMBARRASSING.
DAD, NOW, DON'T YOU WORRY.
IT'S NOT EVEN
CHRISTMAS EVE YET.
I WANT YOU TO DO
WHAT YOU ALWAYS TAUGHT ME--
HAVE HOPE.
HAVE FAITH.
"THOSE WHO BELIEVE
ARE REWARDED WITH THE TRUTH."
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS
THAT EVEN I
DON'T BELIEVE IN SANTA
IF THIS IS MY REWARD.
DAD, YOU ARE SANTA CLAUS.
DON'T EVER FORGET WHO YOU ARE.
AND IT ISN'T BECAUSE
YOU HAVE A WHITE BEARD
AND WEAR A RED SUIT.
IT'S BECAUSE IN YOUR EYES
ARE THE HOPES
OF MILLIONS OF CHILDREN.
ON YOUR SHOULDERS
IS THE WEIGHOF MILLIONS OF DREAMS
WAITING TO BE DELIVERED.
YOU ARE SO IMPORTANTO THE WORLD, DAD,
NOT ONLY BECAUSE YOU GIVE,
BUT BECAUSE YOU SHOW OTHERS
WHAT IT IS TO GIVE.
THAT'S WHO SANTA CLAUS IS
AND THAT'S WHO YOU ARE,
AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO GETHE NORTH POLE BACK FOR YOU.
OH, KRISTIN.
DON'T WORRY, DAD.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.
I'M SO GLAD WE'VE BEEN ABLE
TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT, DONALD,
FINALLY.
I'VE GOT TO GO.
KRISTIN!
HOW SURPRISING
TO SEE YOU.
NEW YEAR. SAME YOU.
HAVE YOU TAKEN UP HAIKU
SINCE YOU ABANDONED US?
YOU WON'GET AWAY WITH THIS.
THAT OLD SONG.
TAKE A LOOK AROUND,
KRISTIN.
I'VE ALREADY GOTTEN
AWAY WITH IT.
DID YOU NOTICE?
THERE'S ALMOST NOTHING LEFOF YOUR PRECIOUS POLE.
I SAW IT.
SO PERFECT.
EVERYBODY WANTED
HIS OR HER OWN
PIECE OF THE POLE.
"BELIEVE THIS, BELIEVE THAT."
IT'S ALL TALK, REALLY.
WHAT THEY CARE ABOUIS HAVING SOMETHING
THEY CAN HOLD IN THEIR HANDS.
RIGHT, KIDS?
MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD?
THEN BRICK BY BRICK, BYE-BYE.
WE JUST THOUGHIT WOULD BE
A NICE GIFT.
SANTA CLAUS ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE
THIS YEAR.
THE SLEIGH
IS IN A HUNDRED PIECES
SPREAD OUIN THE GRUBBY LITTLE HANDS
OF HALF A DOZEN COUNTRIES.
AND THE REINDEER?
I SOLD THEM
TO A COLLECTOR IN OHIO.
BOUGHT THE WHOLE SET.
THE REINDEER ARE GONE?
FILTHY ANIMALS.
I SAY "GOOD RIDDANCE."
IT'S ALL BEEN SOLD.
WHY NOT?
PEOPLE GREEDY
FOR CHRISTMAS
BOUGHT IT ALL,
AND WHILE THEY WERE BUYING IT,
THEY DESTROYED IT.
SO NOW...
RUDOLFA AND DONALD'S
HOTEL AND CASINO IS GOING UP.
WE'RE PAVING PARADISE
AND PUTTING UP A PARKING LOT--
SEVERAL, IN FACT.
MY GUESS IS
THE SAME PEOPLE THAT BOUGHTHE PIECES OF THE POLE
WILL BE THE ONES
THAT WILL MAKE THE TREK HERE
TO STAY AT THE HOTEL.
BY THE WAY, DO YOU KNOW
WHO OWNS THE SOUTH POLE?
BECAUSE
AT THIS POINT IN MY CAREER,
I DON'T KNOW,
I FEEL THE NEED
TO GO...REALLY GLOBAL.
WELL, I CAN FIND OUT.
BECAUSE WHEN
YOU'RE HOT IN THIS BUSINESS,
YOU HAVE TO KEEP ON THE MOVE.
THEY'VE GOALL THOSE PENGUINS UP THERE.
I CAN PROBABLY
SELL THOSE OFF LIKE CHICKENS.
ONCE THE BIRDS ARE GONE,
THE BUILDING BEGINS.
WOW. THAT WAS
YOUR SISTER?
GOOD OL' SIS.
POOR CHRISTMAS.
GOD RESYE MERRY PRESENTS
UNDER THE TREE YOU GO
TONIGHT KRISTIN
IS MAKING FOOD
INTO MY MOUTH IT'LL GO
WE'LL EAT AND EAAND EAT SOME MORE
AND THEN WE'LL EAT SOME MORE
HEY, BILL.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
WHERE ARE THE KRISTIN
AND THE KIDS?
GONE.
"GONE" AS IN SHOPPING?
OR GONE AS IN..."GONE"?
GONE AS IN...
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT EVEN SURE
THAT "GONE" REALLY COVERS IT.
BOY, THAT'S BAD.
"GONE" COVERS A LOT.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW THIS COULD BE...
BUT I DON'T HAVE
ANOTHER EXPLANATION
FOR IT.
DO YOU MIND IF I SIT?
I HAVE A FEELING
THIS COULD TAKE A WHILE.
WHAT ARE WE
GOING TO DO, KRISTIN?
SO ORDER NOW
IT'S TIME TO BUY
WE ARE CARRYING
A BIG SUPPLY
DON'T DELAY
THEY WON'T LAST...
FOLLOW ME.
EACH GUARANTEED AND CERTIFIED
NO LIES, NO FAKES, NO TRICKS
PAY WHAT YOU CAN
DON'T THINK TWICE
WE DON'T CARE
ABOUT THE PRICE
ISN'T THAT NICE?
BUY A PIECE OF THE POLE
NOW YOU CAN OWN
YOUR OWN PIECE OF THE POLE...
HEY, THIS IS THE STUFF
FROM THE COMMERCIAL.
WE'RE GOING TO BROADCASONE LAST TIME.
STANDBY FOR TRANSMISSION.
THERE IS ONE THING
WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO.
OH, WAHOO?
KRISTIN?
WE HAVE TO FIGURE
THIS THING OUT,
AND FAST.
THAT'S RIGHT.
FOR A LIMITED TIME,
YOU TOO
CAN OWN A PIECE OF THE POLE.
I LOVE HER.
I KNOW THAT.
AND I WAS HERE WHEN THEY...
WHEN THEY DISAPPEARED IN THAT...
THAT SWIRL OF SNOW.
I SAW THAT.
SO...THAT MUST BE...
SOME KIND OF PROOF
THAT KRISTIN IS...
THAT KRISTIN
IS SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
WHAT?
THAT'S THE ONLY THING
THAT MAKES SENSE.
THAT MAKES SENSE
AND CLONING DOESN'T?
JOHNNY, SHE COMES
OUT OF NOWHERE, RIGHT?
SHE SHOWS UP HERE
WITH A BIG RED VELVET BAG
FOR HER LUGGAGE.
SHE'S AN EXPERON CHRISTMAS.
HER FAVORITE COLORS
ARE RED AND GREEN.
I MEAN, HER FAVORITE SONG
IS "SILENT NIGHT".
SHE'S THE MOST LOVING,
THE MOST FORGIVING PERSON
I'VE EVER MET...
AND HER NAME IS KRISTIN CLAUS.
YOU LUCKY...
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
NOW THAT I KNOW IT,
I KNOW I'VE KNOWN IALL ALONG.
I JUST--
I WAS AFRAID
TO ADMIT IT.
YOU'RE LOSING ME.
WELL, I LOVE HER.
BUT TO BE MARRIED
TO SANTA'S DAUGHTER?
THAT'S A LITTLE STRANGE,
DON'T YOU THINK?
YEAH, THAT IS STRANGE...
THINK OF THE STORY
IN THE TABLOIDS.
JOHNNY, IF YOU WANTO SPEND ANOTHER MINUTE
UNDER THIS ROOF,
DON'T EVEN
THINK THAT AGAIN.
OH, MY GOD, YOU'RE RIGHT.
IF WE GET MARRIED,
THEN KRISTIN
COULD NEVER EVEN
BREATHE A WORD
OF WHO SHE REALLY IS...
PLEASE STAND BY WHAT?
THE THING IS
THAT THE NORTH POLE
DOESN'T BELONG
TO ANY ONE PERSON.
IT CAN'T,
BECAUSE IT ALREADY BELONGS
TO EVERYONE--
TO EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES,
AND IT CAN ONLY EXISIF EVERYONE BELIEVES
IN THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES
THE NORTH POLE POWERFUL.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT IMPORTANT.
IT'S EVERYONE BELIEVING
TOGETHER.
BUT NOW WITH PEOPLE HAVING
THEIR OWN LITTLE
"PIECE OF THE POLE,"
WANTING IT FOR THEMSELVES,
IT'S BEEN LOST.
THERE IS ONLY ONE HOPE.
IT'S GOING TO TAKE EVERYONE
BELIEVING WITH ME.
EVERYONE WHO HAS
A PIECE OF THE NORTH POLE,
YOU HAVE TO GEYOUR PIECE OF THE NORTH POLE
AND PUT IT IN YOUR HAND,
AND YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
VERY HARD.
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
WITH EVERYTHING
YOU HAVE IN YOU.
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
IN THE NORTH POLE
AND SANTA CLAUS AND CHRISTMAS.
YOU HAVE TO CLOSE YOUR EYES
AND SEE WITH YOUR HEART,
AND MAYBE A MIRACLE
WILL HAPPEN.
BELIEVE.
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE VERY HARD.
BELIEVE WITH ME...
BELIEVE WITH ALL YOUR HEART...
THANK YOU.
SHE'S THE WORLD'S
MOST INCREDIBLE PERSON,
AND SHE LOVES ME,
AND I'M SITTING HERE
WONDERING ABOUT WHAT?
THIS DOESN'T MATTER.
'CAUSE WE'RE GOING TO GETHROUGH THIS,
NO MATTER WHAT,
BECAUSE WE'RE ALL
GOING TO HAVE EACH OTHER,
AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS.
THAT'S THE ONLY THING
THAT COUNTS.
OKAY...
I BELIEVE.
BILL!
DADDY!
DAD!
OH, GUYS!
I'M SORRY
I DIDN'T BELIEVE BEFORE,
BUT I DO NOW.
I BELIEVE IN YOU,
AND IN US, AND IN THIS,
MORE THAN I EVER
THOUGHT I POSSIBLY COULD.
I KNOW YOU DO.
YOU COULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN HERE
IF YOU DIDN'T.
WELL, NICE TRY, KRISTIN.
TOO BAD IT DIDN'T WORK.
BILL...
THIS IS MY SISTER, RUDOLFA.
ARE YOU KIDDING?
IT'S NICE
TO MEET YOU.
HEY, LOOK.
WHAT IS IT?
THE PIECES
OF THE POLE.
THEY'RE
COMING HOME.
NO, NO, NO, NO!
OH, NO, NO, NO, NO!
I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!
WHEN AM I EVER GOING TO
CATCH A BREAK?
KRISTIN!
WHAT HAPPENED?
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TIME
TO TELL YOU RIGHT NOW, DAD.
CHRISTMAS IS SAVED.
YOU HAVE TO
GET GOING.
WELL, THIS IS
WONDERFUL!
EVEN BETTER.
RUDOLFA!
THE REINDEER
AREN'T BACK YET.
I KNOW.
I'LL GO GET IN THE HARNESS.
I THOUGHT I BURNT THIS.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, DAD.
IT WILL BE NOW--
A MERRY CHRISTMAS FOR US ALL.
YOU'VE DONE IT, KRISTIN.
DAD, THIS IS BILL.
HELLO, BILL.
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY.
THANK YOU, SANTA.
I JUST SAID THAT,
DIDN'T I?
QUICKLY!
HELP ME FILL UP THE SLEIGH.
WE'VE GOT THE PRESENTS
IN THE PRESENT ROOM.
COME ON, LET'S GO.
[ SANTA ]: MERRY CHRISTMAS!
LEAD THE WAY, RUDOLFA.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
YOU HAVE COMMITTED
TO EACH OTHER
TO SHARE,
TO LISTEN,
TO LOVE.
I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU
HUSBAND AND WIFE.
DO YOU WANT TO MAKE
THESE INTRODUCTIONS
OR SHOULD I?
MAYBE BOTH OF US.
TOGETHER.
MOM, DAD?
COME HERE.
I WANT YOU
TO MEET SOMEONE.
THESE ARE
KRISTIN'S PARENTS.
HAMILTON AND JOAN,
THIS IS MY FATHER,
SANTA CLAUS,
AND MY MOM,
CLARA CLAUS.
HI.
HELLO.
VERY PLEASED TO MEET YOU, SANTA.
PLEASURE TO MEET YOU, HAMILTON.
THAT'S A VERY PRETTY DRESS
YOU'RE WEARING, CLARA.
THANK YOU.
I'VE HAD IT FOREVER.
OH.
SO...
WHY DON'T WE GO EAT?
SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA.
I HAVE A COMPLAINT.
I DIDN'T GEWHAT I WANTED
FOR CHRISTMAS
THIS YEAR, SANTA.
WELL, DON'T BE
TOO SURPRISED.
YOU WEREN'VERY NICE THIS YEAR...
NOT VERY NICE AT ALL,
I'M AFRAID.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?
NOW, DAD...
WELL, HE ASKED ME.
THE MAN COMES
TO HIS OWN DAUGHTER'S WEDDING
DRESSED IN A SANTA SUIT.
WHAT IS THAT?
SOME KIND
OF A JOKE?
I ASSURE YOU, SIR, IT IS NOT.
I DON'T THINK I LIKE YOUR TONE.
IT'S PEOPLE LIKE YOU
THAT MAKE MY JOB
SO DIFFICULT.
PEOPLE LIKE ME?
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
PEOPLE LIKE ME, I'M SURE.
DAD...
CAN TALK
ABOUT THIS LATER?
WELL, NOW,
ISN'T THIS GOING TO BE FUN?
WE COULD ALL
DO BETTER.
THAT'S WHAT I MEANT.
THANK YOU.
AHEM.
YES, WELL, I SUPPOSE WE COULD.
COME ON, DEAR.
HOW ABOUT A FINAL PHOTO
WITH YOUR FAVORITE UNCLE?
YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
THIS IS OUR BESCHRISTMAS EVER.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF US
AND FOR ALL THE CHRISTMAS's
TO COME.
SANTA AND MRS. CLAUS
LIVED HAPPILY AT THE NORTH POLE
WITH THEIR TWO DAUGHTERS,
RUDOLFA, WHO WAS NAUGHTY,
AND KRISTIN, WHO WAS NICE...
BUT ALL WAS NOT WELL.
SANTA, FEARING THAT PEOPLE
HAD LOST THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT,
WAS MAKING PLANS TO RETIRE,
AND RUDOLFA, SEEING HER CHANCE,
HATCHED A PLAN
TO RUIN CHRISTMAS FOREVER,
AND SHE ALMOST DID,
UNTIL KRISTIN SAVED THE DAY,
RESURRECTING SANTA'S HOPE
BY GETTING A MORTAL FAMILY
TO EMBRACE
THE TRUE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS,
AND, ALONG THE WAY,
SHE FELL IN LOVE
WITH THIS FAMILY,
WIDOWED DAD, BILL,
AND HIS CHILDREN,
KYLE AND BRITTANY.
THUS, KRISTIN SACRIFICED
HER OWN IMMORTALITY
AND ALL MEMORY OF WHO SHE WAS
TO SAVE CHRISTMAS
AND FOIL
RUDOLFA'S SINISTER PLAN,
BUT THAT WAS LAST YEAR,
AND THIS
ISTWICE UPON A CHRISTMAS.
[ ]
AS USUAL...INCREDIBLE.
CONTROL YOURSELF.
I REMEMBER
WHEN YOU TAUGHT KRISTIN
TO DO THAT.
IT SEEMS SUCH A LONG TIME AGO
SINCE WE LAST SAW HER.
YES,
BUT SHE'S VERY HAPPY
WHERE SHE IS.
YES, I SUPPOSE SHE IS.
THAT'S VERY TRUE.
[ DEEJAY ]:
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, WILLOWBROOK.
IT'S CHRISTMASTIME IN OREGON
AGAIN,
42 DEGREES DOWNTOWN.
HERE'S ANOTHER SONG TO PUT YOU
IN THAT CHRISTMAS SPIRIT.
[ ]
CAN I PLEASE HAVE THE TAPE?
OKAY,
NOW, HOLD STILL, KYLE.
THANK YOU, BRITTANY.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
BRITTANY'S NEXT.
OH, DEFINITELY, KYLE.
THAT'S HOW THE GAME WORKS.
WE WRAP UP YOU,
AND THEN YOU GET TO WRAP UP
SOMEONE ELSE.
I SAW THAT.
[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]
TRUCE, TRUCE, TRUCE.
HELLO?
HEY, BRIT. IT'S DADDY.
HI, DADDY.
ASK HIM WHEN HE THINKS
HE'LL BE HOME.
WHEN WILL YOU BE HOME?
I'VE GOT TWO MORE MEETINGS,
SO...I GUESS ABOUT 7:00.
HONEY, CAN KRISTIN
HEAR YOU?
NO.
OKAY.
DO YOU THINK SHE KNOWS ANYTHING?
I DON'T THINK SO.
AND KYLE HASN'T SAID ANYTHING,
RIGHT?
FOR A CHANGE, NO.
YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAVE TO GO.
SEE YOU LATER. BYE.
WHAT WAS THAALL ABOUT?
NOTHING.
YOU KNOW, KRISTIN,
IT'S NOT THAT EASY
TO SURPRISE DAD.
BELIEVE ME. I'VE TRIED.
YOU KNOW,
HE'S BEEN SO BUSY WITH WORK.
I BET HE'S PROBABLY
FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT IT.
RACHEL'S DAD
DOESN'T CELEBRATE BIRTHDAYS
ANYMORE.
HIS LAST BIRTHDAY CAKE
HAD SO MANY CANDLES ON IT,
IT SET OFF
THE SMOKE ALARMS.
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS
CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY.
IT'S SUCH
AN IMPORTANT DAY.
IT REMINDS US OF THE MIRACLE
EACH ONE OF US IS,
ALL THE SPECIAL
THINGS
THAT COME TOGETHER AND MAKE YOU,
YOU.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH HOW OLD YOU ARE.
IT'S ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL
LIFE IS.
MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK
TO RACHEL'S DAD.
MAN, WHAT HAPPENED
IN HERE?
SMALL PAPER FIGHT,
UNCLE JOHNNY.
WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME?
OW.
HEY, NO PAPER FIGHTS
WITHOUT ME.
PAPER CUT!
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?
I HATE THIS!
AND YOU,
YOU HAD BETTER GIVE SANTA
A GOOD REPORON THE JOB I'VE BEEN DOING.
SANTA...
THAT OLD MAN
IS GOING TO KILL ME.
LOOK AT ME.
I'M A WRECK.
FIRST, I HAVE TO POLISH
ALL THE RIBBON
ON THE PRESENTS,
AND THEN I HAVE TO CLEAN UP
AFTER ALL OF THOSE BIRDS.
SEVEN SWANS A-SWIMMING,
SIX GEESE A-LAYING,
FOUR CALLING BIRDS,
THREE FRENCH HENS,
TWO STINKING TURTLE DOVES,
AND THAT PARTRIDGE
IN THAT ROTTEN PEAR TREE.
IT'S TOO MUCH...
IT'S DAD.
IT'S DAD. SHH.
I'M HERE.
HERE I AM, DAD.
I...WHOO, I'M WORKING AWAY,
JUST LIKE YOU TOLD ME TO.
YES, I CAN SEE.
WHEW.
ALMOST DONE, DON'T YOU THINK?
I HOPE YOU'VE LEARNED SOMETHING
FROM DOING ALL THESE CHORES.
OH, I HAVE.
I REALLY, REALLY HAVE.
AND WHAT IS ITHAT YOU'VE LEARNED,
RUDOLFA?
WELL, I'VE LEARNED
THAT RIBBON IS ONLY SHINY
IF YOU BUFF IT...A LOT.
YES. WHAT ELSE?
THOSE BIRDS EAT WAY TOO MUCH.
HAVE YOU LEARNED YOUR LESSON,
RUDOLFA?
LESSON?
YEAH, DON'T GET CAUGHT.
THAT'S THE LESSON.
I'M SORRY. WHAT WAS THAT?
OH, YES, I DID.
I LEARNED A LESSON.
DEFINITELY.
ARE YOU SORRY
FOR WHAT YOU DID
LAST YEAR?
I'M VERY, VERY, VERY SORRY.
VERY WELL, THEN.
I RELEASE YOU
FROM ALL FURTHER CHORES.
OH, THANK YOU, THANK YOU,
THANK YOU, DADDY.
OH, THANK YOU,
AND I'LL BE GOOD.
I REALLY WILL, DAD.
WELL, YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO BE.
I'M GOING TO NEED
YOUR HELP THIS YEAR
WITH KRISTIN GONE.
I'M HERE.
I'M THE ONE
THAT STAYED LOYAL
TO THE POLE,
AND TO YOU.
NO, NO, NO,
I DIDN'T GO ANYWHERE.
I WAS HAPPY
JUST BEING HERE
WITH YOU AND MOTHER.
YES, IT'S TRUE.
YOU DID STAY HERE.
YOU STAYED HERE,
EVEN THOUGH YOU WANTED
TO TURN CHRISTMAS DAY
INTO CHRISTMAS FOOLS' DAY!
WELL, YEAH,
BUT THAT'S ALL BEHIND US NOW,
RIGHT?
WELL, IT'S GOING
TO HAVE TO BE.
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
DO SOME OF THE DUTIES
THAT WERE KRISTIN'S.
WELL, OF COURSE.
I'LL HAVE TO
TAKE HER PLACE
IN SOME THINGS.
I'LL BE HAPPY TO.
FILLING KRISTIN'S SHOES
IS A DIFFICULT TASK.
THAT'S BECAUSE SHE'S GOSUCH BIG FEET.
I'M SORRY.
WHAT WAS THAT?
OH, I SAID, UM...
IT'S A CHALLENGE
I HOPE I CAN MEET.
WELL, YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.
WE'RE BEHIND AGAIN
THIS YEAR.
I JUST CAN'T SEEM
TO GET ORGANIZED.
WELL, WE'RE BEGINNING
RIGHT AWAY,
SO GET YOURSELF READY.
OH, DON'T WORRY.
I'LL BE READY.
YOU CAN BET I'LL BE READY.
GUYS...
WE WISH YOU
A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
WE WISH YOU
A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
WE WISH YOU A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
AND MANY MORE YEARS
WELL, THAT'S A NEW ONE.
COME ON, DAD.
BLOW OUT THE CANDLES.
OKAY.
WHOO!
WHOO!
I'LL GO GET THE PRESENTS.
THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC, KRISTIN.
I'LL SAY. WHERE'S
EVERYONE ELSE'S PIECE?
HERE YOU GO.
WHOA.
OKAY, OPEN THEM.
OKAY.
DO I SEE A GIFT HERE
FROM KRISTIN?
MINE IS THE ONE
WITH THE GREEN BOW.
YOU KNOW, I'M SURE
IT'S A WONDERFUL PRESENT,
BUT IT'S NOT THE ONE
I'M LOOKING FOR.
SCOOT YOUR CHAIR BACK A LITTLE
FROM THE TABLE.
OKAY.
LIKE THIS?
A LITTLE MORE, I THINK.
OKAY.
GREAT.
ARE YOU OKAY, BILL?
OH, YEAH, YEAH.
NOW, THE GIFTHAT I'M LOOKING FOR FROM YOU
IS...IS REALLY JUST ONE WORD,
JUST "YES."
I'M ASKING YOU TO MARRY ME,
AND BY "ME," I MEAN "WE,"
OBVIOUSLY.
OH, BILL.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
DID YOU TWO KNOW ABOUT THIS?
I HELPED PICK OUT THE RING.
IT'S WONDERFUL...
AND YOU TWO...
OH, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
I LOVE YOU, BILL.
AM I GOING TO GET THE GIFTHAT I'M LOOKING FOR?
I'M SORRY, BILL.
NO, I...I CAN'T.
EXCUSE ME.
WELL, WHO WANTS CAKE, HUH?
YOU DON'T WANTO BE OUR MOM?
OF COURSE I DO,
SWEETHEART.
I DON'T WANT ANYTHING
ELSE IN THE WORLD.
THEN TELL ME WHY,
KRISTIN,
BECAUSE
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
IT'S ME.
DON'T YOU KNOW
HOW MUCH I'VE WANTED
THIS MOMENT?
HOW CAN I BE YOUR WIFE
AND BE HERE FOR THE KIDS
IF I DON'T KNOW WHO I AM?
OKAY, SO MAYBE
I'LL TRY TO CALL
THE NANNY AGENCY AGAIN
AND SEE
WHAT HAPPENS.
I'VE CALLED THEM AGAIN,
AND THEY STILL HAVE NO RECORD
OF ME
EVER BEING REGISTERED THERE,
AND I DON'T KNOW
WHO ELSE TO CALL.
I HAVE NO INFORMATION
TO START WITH,
NO HOMETOWN, NO ANYTHING.
WE KNOW EVERYTHING
WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOU NOW.
YOU ARE A WARM, WONDERFUL,
LOVING WOMAN
WHO I LOVE,
WHO WE LOVE,
AND WHO WE NEED,
KRISTIN,
AND WANT IN OUR LIVES
FOREVER,
AND, YOU KNOW,
YOU DON'T HAVE A MEMORY
OF WHO YOU WERE
WHEN YOU CAME IN OUR FRONT DOOR,
AND I DON'T CARE,
AND WHATEVER YOU WERE
BEFORE THEN,
IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE
A DIFFERENCE
TO ME OR THE KIDS.
YEAH, WE DON'T CARE
WHO YOU ARE.
HE MEANS
THAT WE KNOW YOU
AND LOVE YOU
ALREADY.
BUT IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO ME.
I MEAN, TONIGHT,
YOU HAD A BIRTHDAY,
AND, KYLE, YOU HAVE ONE,
AUGUST 24th,
AND BRITTANY,
MARCH 11th.
CAN YOU TELL ME
WHEN MY BIRTHDAY IS?
I DON'T EVEN KNOW
HOW TO DRIVE A CAR.
I MEAN,
HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?
WHERE DID I LIVE
THAT I NEVER LEARNED
HOW TO DRIVE?
HEY, I'LL BE LEARNING
IN A COUPLE OF YEARS.
I'LL DRIVE YOU AROUND.
EVERYTHING HERE IS SO WONDERFUL,
BUT, LATELY,
FINDING OUHAS SEEMED
MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT.
I MEAN, FACE IT.
HAVE YOU EVER MEANYONE LIKE ME,
SOMEONE WHO KNOWS NOTHING
ABOUT HER PAST?
LET'S JUSMAKE A DEAL.
A DEAL?
A DEAL.
YOU GIVE ME
MY "YES,"
AND I PROMISE YOU
THAT BEFORE WE GET MARRIED,
WE'LL FIND OUT ALL ABOUT YOU.
WHAT IF WE DON'T LIKE
WHAT WE FIND?
I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT.
YOU KNOW,
I HAVEN'T TOLD YOU THIS BEFORE,
BUT, SOMEHOW, I FEEL
LIKE THERE'S
SOMETHING DIFFERENT,
BUT WHAT IF IT TURNS OUTHAT I HAVE A REALLY WEIRD PAST?
WHAT IF I DID
SOMETHING TERRIBLE,
AND THAT'S WHY
I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER WHO I AM?
KRISTIN,
I PROMISE YOU, WE WON'T.
THERE'S NO WAY THAT YOU COULD BE
THE PERSON YOU ARE NOW
AND THEN TO HAVE BEEN
SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENBEFORE,
AND NO MATTER WHAT,
NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE
THE WAY I FEEL ABOUT YOU.
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
IS THAT MY "YES"?
YES.
OH...
WE'RE GOING TO GET MARRIED,
AND WE'RE GOING TO LIVE
HAPPILY EVER AFTER.
JUST LIKE IN THE FAIRY TALES?
OH, YEAH,
JUST LIKE IN ALL THE STORIES
OF MAKE-BELIEVE.
OH.
IF YOU WANDRIVING LESSONS,
I'LL MAKE THEM
ONE OF YOUR
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
WOW.
WE'D BETTER GO FINISH DESSERBEFORE UNCLE JOHNNY DOES.
I HEARD THAT.
TOO LATE.
WE HAVE FIND OUT, KYLE.
WE HAVE TO HELP HER.
WAHOO, ARE YOU IN THERE?
NO. I'M NOT HERE.
WE HAVE WORK TO DO.
ALL THE ELVES
THAT HELPED YOU OUT LAST TIME
GOT INTO TOO MUCH TROUBLE.
NO COOKIES FOR THREE MONTHS!
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I'VE SUFFERED?
DO YOU KNOW
WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH?
MAKING REINDEER-POO PIES?
CLOSE ENOUGH,
AND NOW
I'M GOING TO GET MY REVENGE.
OOH, I DON'T THINK
REVENGE IS ALLOWED
AT THE NORTH POLE.
I'LL MAKE IWORTH YOUR WHILE.
GET A HAMMER AND A CHISEL
AND COME WITH ME.
ALL THOSE YEARS
OF TRYING TO GET RID OF HER,
AND SHE DID IT ON HER OWN.
SHE LEFT OF HER OWN FREE WILL,
WENT TO BE WITH THAT FAMILY,
THE MORGANS.
WELL, GOODBYE, MS. PERFECT.
YOU'RE NOW MS. MORTAL,
AND THAT IS GOING TO MAKE IT ALL
SO MUCH EASIER.
WELL, DO YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES IEVEN BETTER?
SOMEBODY IS FINALLY
GOING TO BUY US
SOME SNOWBLOWERS?
SHE DOESN'T EVEN REMEMBER
THAT SHE EVER LIVED HERE,
OR THAT SANTA'S HER FATHER,
I'M HER SISTER,
OR THAT SHE HAS ANY POWERS.
SHE'S NOT GOING TO SAVE
THE POLE.
NO, NOT THIS YEAR.
SANTA WANTS ME TO HELP HIM.
I'M GOING TO HELP HIM,
ALL RIGHT.
THE OLD MAN IS LOSING IT,
AND I'M GOING TO
HELP HIM LOSE IT FOR GOOD.
YES.
THIS WILL DO.
THIS IS WHERE WE'LL START.
HERE IT IS.
GOOD AS NEW...ALMOST.
IT'S EVEN BETTER THAN NEW.
YEAH.
KRISTIN...
YEAH?
WOULD YOU PUT IT ON?
OH, I'D BE HONORED.
IT'S OUR TREE NOW.
YEAH.
WE ALL HAVE SO MUCH
TO BE THANKFUL FOR,
AND CHRISTMAS GIVES US
A MOMENT TO REMEMBER THAT,
AND TO REMEMBER
HOW BEAUTIFUL IT IS
THAT WE HAVE EACH OTHER.
LAST CHRISTMAS WAS SO GREAT,
KRISTIN,
BECAUSE
WE GOT YOU AS OUR PRESENT.
WHICH IS NOT BAD,
AS FAR AS PRESENTS GO.
IT'S A SHAME KRISTIN'S
STUFF GOT DESTROYED.
THERE WAS PROBABLY SOME I.D.
THAT WOULD HELP US FIND OUWHERE TO START LOOKING
FOR HER PAST.
YOU KNOW, JOHNNY...
WHAT, WHAT, WHAT?
I KNOW, MY BIG MOUTH...
NO, ACTUALLY,
THIS TIME, I THINK
YOUR BIG MOUTH IS RIGHT.
WE ALL HAVE TO DO
WHATEVER WE CAN
TO HELP KRISTIN FIGURE OUWHERE SHE COMES FROM.
THAT INCLUDES YOU, RIGHT?
YEAH.
I HAPPEN TO HAVE
SOME SPARE TIME NOW.
I COULD LAUNCH
AN ALL-OUT ATTACK
ON THE CAUSE.
THEN GO FOR IT.
I'M ALL OVER IT.
THIS IS
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING NOW.
REMEMBER THIS?
KRISTIN'S.
YES.
SHE WAS SO YOUNG WHEN
YOU GAVE THAT TO HER.
IT SEEMS SO LONG AGO.
IT WAS
A LONG TIME AGO.
WHAT DO YOU THINK SHE'S DOING
RIGHT NOW?
PROBABLY THE SAME THING
WE'RE DOING,
DECORATING THE TREE.
HERE'S RUDOLFA'S DOLL.
I'M STILL NOT QUITE SURE
WHY SHE DID THAT TO IT.
YOU KNOW,
IT'S AMAZING HOW TWO CHILDREN
CAN BE SO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
YES, ISN'T IT?
CAN'T WE LET CHRISTMAS BE
THIS YEAR?
LET IT BE?
WHY SHOULD I LET IT BE?
GO.
I WAS NEVER ANY GOOD
AT CHRISTMAS, ANYWAY,
AND LOOK,
IT'S EVERYWHERE.
I'M DROWNING
IN IT.
GO.
WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO
AT THE NORTH POLE
IF YOU'RE NO GOOD
AT CHRISTMAS?
CAN'T YOU GO
ANY FASTER?
NOT BY MYSELF.
I'D BE HAPPY
TO HELP,
BUT MY HANDS
HAVE BEEN WORKED TO THE BONE
BY SANTA
AND ALL THE CHORES.
LOOK AT THAT NAIL.
GO.
SMALLER PIECES,
WAHOO.
THEY HAVE TO FIINTO THE MAIL.
GO.
KEEP GOING.
YOU'RE GETTING THERE.
WHERE IS "THERE"?
DID SHE LIVE THERE?
DID SHE LIVE--
YEAH. DID SHE EVER LIVE THERE?
YEAH, I CAN SEND YOU
A PICTURE.
YEAH, I'M LOOKING FOR A KRISTIN.
K-R-I-S...
NO, NO, NO, NOT KATHY, NOT KYLA,
NOT KARLA.
NO, KRISTIN CLAUS.
WELL...
NO, I'M NOT TRYING
TO SELL ANYTHING.
ARE YOU SURE?
THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
SHE'S GOING TO BE OUR MOM.
OKAY. THANKS.
WELL,
I'D BETTER CHECK MY LIST...
TWICE.
OH, I COULD HAVE SWORN
THERE WAS A PROFESSIONAL
VIDEO CAMERA HERE.
PERHAPS OVER HERE...
BUT I'M SURE
THERE WAS A CAMERA HERE
SOMEWHERE.
WELL, HE SAID HE WOULD BE HERE.
BEFORE OR AFTER
MY HERNIA?
WAHOO,
TURN THAT THING ON
AND SEE IF IT WORKS.
OH, MR. GLITCH,
I'M DELIGHTED YOU CAME.
YOU GOT ME HERE. WHAT?
WELL, YOU'RE THE ABSOLUTE BESAT ELECTRONICS,
AND WE NEED YOUR EXPERTISE.
NORMALLY, I FIX THEM
SO THEY DON'T WORK.
YES,
AND YOU DO THAT SO WONDERFULLY,
BUT DOESN'T THAT MEAN
THAT YOU KNOW
HOW TO MAKE THINGS WORK
AS WELL?
IF THERE WAS SOMETHING IN IFOR YOU...
LIKE WHAT?
OH, I KNOW--
A NO-MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.
OOH, OOH,
OR A NICE
NASTY LITTLE STATIC SHOCK.
YES, WELL,
SOMETHING LIKE THAT...
YES, YES, YES.
OUCH.
ARE WE READY?
YES, YES.
CUE RUDOLF.
RUDOLF!
OH, GO SEE WHAT HAPPENED
TO THAT STUPID REINDEER.
YES!
I LOVE WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.

TEDDY BEARS.
YES, FIVE,
AND COULD YOU PUT THEM
IN A BOTTOMLESS BAG, PLEASE?
BECAUSE THEY TAKE UP LESS SPACE.
NO, THAT'S NOT ALL.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE
IN THE PENGUIN LINE?
BECAUSE I THINK
THEY'RE GOING TO BE POPULAR
THIS YEAR.
WHY? BECAUSE I'M SANTA.
THAT'S WHY I KNOW.
WHY DO WE HAVE TO
GO THROUGH THIS EVERY YEAR?
DON'T YOU BELIEVE IN ME?
[ HONKING ]
HE MUST BE IN A HURRY.
THE LIGHHAS BEEN GREEN.
FOR QUITE
SOME TIME NOW.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO
PUT IT IN PARK
EVERY TIME YOU STOP.
A LITTLE PATIENCE, PLEASE.
I'M JUST LEARNING.
WELL, LEARN
HOW TO USE THE GAS PEDAL!
HURRY UP!
CHRISTMAS IS COMING!
ALL THE MORE REASON
FOR SOME UNDERSTANDING.
SHALL WE
TRY TO PARK?
OOH, WELL, THAT SHOULD BE FUN!
JUST PUT IN IN REVERSE
AND WE'LL BACK INTO THE SPACE.
JUST BACK IN.
GOOD!
YOU'RE DOING GOOD.
HEY...
NOT SO FAST!
NOT SO FAST!
THAT WASN'T RIGHT, WAS IT?
HAVE YOU EVER
DRIVEN ANYTHING
BEFORE?
A REINDEER SLEIGH.
OKAY...OKAY.
I LOST MY PEN.
OH, I'LL GET YOU ONE.
THANK YOU.
PARALLEL PARKING, FAIL.
BEAUTIFUL!
THESE WILL GO SO QUICKLY.
YOU'VE DONE WELL.
AND REMEMBER,
EVERY ELF THAT HELPS
GETS A VACATION
ANYWHERE
ON THE EQUATOR,
WHERE IT'S WARM.
SANTA NEVER DID
THAT FOR YOU,
DID HE?
MY, MY, MY.
WELL, LOOKEE HERE.
IT'S KRISTIN'S DOLL
FROM WHEN SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL.
IT'S A SHAME
SHE ISN'T HERE
TO SEE ME DISMANTLE
THE POLE.
IT WOULD MAKE IT ALL
SO MUCH MORE DELICIOUS
TO SEE THE LOOK OF HORROR
IN HER EYES
WHEN IT'S ALL GONE...
JUST LIKE SHE IS--GONE.
BYE-BYE.
BEFORE I BEGIN,
I'D LIKE
TO THANK BILL
FOR GIVING ME
THE OPPORTUNITY
TO REALLY RUN
WITH THIS THING.
THAT'S FINE, JOHNNY.
WHAT WE REALLY WANT TO KNOW NOW
IS WHAT YOU FOUND OUT.
I WENT THE USUAL AVENUES--
SOCIAL SECURITY APPLICATIONS,
HOSPITALS IN THE AREA
WHO MIGHT HAVE HAD A RECORD
OF AN ACCIDENT VICTIM
WHO HAD LOST HER MEMORY.
CLAUS AS A SURNAME HERE,
IN THE STATE,
AND, IN FACT,
ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
AND, OF COURSE,
WE KNOW IT'S CLAUS WITH A "C"
INSTEAD OF A "K,"
OR A FINAL "E."
THERE'S THE FINAL "E".
I CHECKED WITH MISSING PERSONS
AT THE LOCAL
AND FEDERAL LEVEL.
THERE WAS A CLAUS IN PORTLAND
THAT FIT THE PROFILE,
AND A CLAUS IN OHIO
THAT LOOKED PRETTY GOOD,
BUT THOSE DIDN'T PAN OUAS EVER HAVING
A KRISTIN CLAUS IN THE CLAN.
THEY DIDN'T?
NO.
SO YOU DIDN'T STOP THERE,
DID YOU, UNCLE JOHNNY?
OF COURSE NOT.
IT TURNS OUT THERE IS
A WHOLE GROUP OF CLAUS's
IN A SMALL TOWN IN ALASKA.
CLAUS AFTER CLAUS
AFTER CLAUS.
SO THAT'S WHERE
YOU FOUND ME?
WELL...
JOHNNY, PLEASE, PLEASE
WHAT DID YOU FIND OUT?
NOTHING.
I DIDN'T FIND ONE LEAD
FOR A KRISTIN CLAUS.
NO SCHOOL RECORDS,
NO SOCIAL SECURITY,
NO MEDICAL RECORDS.
IT'S LIKE THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE
FELL INTO A BLACK HOLE.
I MEAN,
IF SHE WASN'T SITTING HERE,
I'D TELL YOU
KRISTIN CLAUS DOESN'T EXIST.
IN FACT, I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT I'M GOING TO DO,
AND I KNOW IT SOUNDS CRAZY,
BUT I'M GOING
TO INVESTIGATE THIS
BECAUSE I THINK
KRISTIN IS A CLONE.
IT WOULD REALLY EXPLAIN SO MUCH.
NO PARENTS.
NO RECORDS.
I THINK SHE MAY BE
A GOVERNMENT EXPERIMENT....
OR MAYBE AN ALIEN.
IT'S ENOUGH.
THAT'S ENOUGH.
OH...OH, OH.
I DON'T KNOW WHY
EVERYONE CAN'T SEE IT.
IT'S SO PLAIN.
WHAT'S THAT, BRITTANY?
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
AH! YOU DO?
SURE.
IT'S OBVIOUS.
KRISTIN IS SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
KRISTIN CLAUS.
SANTA CLAUS'S DAUGHTER.
THAT'S WHY WE CAN'T FIND
ANY REFERENCE OF HER HERE.
THAT'S WHY HER FAVORITE COLORS
ARE RED AND GREEN.
SHE WASN'T EVEN BORN HERE.
SHE WAS BORN AT THE NORTH POLE.
SHE LIVED THERE
UNTIL SHE CAME TO LIVE WITH US.
SWEETHEART, THAT'S...
THAT'S GOING TO BE
PRETTY HARD TO PROVE.
IT'S JUST LIKE
UNCLE JOHNNY'S
CLONE THEORY.
YEAH, WELL,
AT LEAST CLONING IS REAL.
WHO'S EVER SEEN SANTA CLAUS,
LET ALONE
HIS DAUGHTER?
OOPS. SORRY.
BRITTANY?
IT IS SIMPLE, ISN'T IT?
CHRISTMAS IS ALMOSTHE ONLY THING I KNOW.
AND WHY WOULDN'T I BE
SANTA'S DAUGHTER?
SO YOU BELIEVE ME?
EVERYTHING YOU SAID MADE SENSE.
I KNEW YOU WOULD.
SOME THINGS YOU CAN'T PROVE.
YOU'VE JUST GOT TO BELIEVE.
IF YOU HAVE PROOF,
YOU DON'T NEED FAITH.
THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN, RIGHT?
BRITTANY,
I NEED TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.
I WANT TO BELIEVE YOU,
BUT I GUESS THE TRUTH IS
THAT WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING
AS IMPORTANT TO ME AS THIS IS,
EVEN FOR ME TO BELIEVE,
I NEED SOME PROOF.
SO YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME EITHER?
THE IMPORTANT THING IS
IS FOR YOU TO KEEP BELIEVING,
NO MATTER WHO ELSE
BELIEVES OR NOT.
IT'S THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE
WHO ARE ALWAYS
REWARDED WITH THE TRUTH.
SO YOU GO ON BELIEVING,
BRITTANY.
THERE ISN'T ANYTHING
MORE IMPORTANT IN THE WORLD.
KRISTIN?
YEAH?
YOU AREN'T GOING TO LEAVE US,
ARE YOU?
LEAVE?
WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IDEA?
BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN
IF WE DIDN'T FIND OUWHO YOU ARE.
YOU MIGHT LEAVE...
AND I DON'T WANT TO LOSE
MY MOM AGAIN.
OH, NO. THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
WHAT HAPPENED TO MY GLASSES?
OH, WELL.
DON'T TELL ME.
WHERE DID I PUT THE KEY?
I'M LOSING EVERYTHING
THESE DAYS.
HELLO, DAD.
OH, RUDOLFA.
DID YOU GET THE
LETTERS ORGANIZED?
OH, YES, DAD. I'M ON IT.
WORKING ALL THE TIME.
CONSTANTLY.
RELENTLESSLY.
WERE YOU GOING INTO
THE PRESENT ROOM?
I WOULD,
BUT I SEEM TO HAVE MISPLACED
THE KEY.
OH, THAT ISN'T LIKE YOU, DAD.
YES. I KNOW.
I SEEM TO
HAVE MISPLACED
A NUMBER
OF THINGS LATELY--
ALL KINDS
OF THINGS.
MM.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
OH, I DON'T KNOW.
LISTEN, POP,
FAR BE IFOR ME TO SAY.
SPIT IT OUT, RUDOLFA.
WELL, YOU KNOW,
I REMEMBER THAT I WAS TALKING
WITH FATHER TIME ONCE
AT THE SUMMER SOLSTICE
BARBECUE...
NOW, WHAT WAS IT HE SAID?
YES, WHAT DID HE SAY?
OH, YES!
THAT IF SANTA
STARTS TO LOSE THINGS
AND THE NORTH POLE AS WE KNOW IKIND OF BEGINS TO DISAPPEAR...
YES?
WELL, IT MEANS
THAT SANTA IS BEING REPLACED.
REPLACED?
WELL, I'M SANTA CLAUS.
I'VE BEEN
SANTA CLAUS FOREVER.
YES, WELL...
NOTHING GOES ON FOREVER.
WELL, IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME.
OH, IT COULDN'BE, DAD.
I MEAN,
THEY WOULDN'T REPLACE YOU.
WHY WOULD THEY?
I'VE DONE
NOTHING WRONG.
WELL, YOU'VE DONE
A GREAT JOB.
OF COURSE YOU HAVE.
OF COURSE, IT IS
DOWN TO THE WIRE
EVERY YEAR,
RUSHED,
HANGING BY A THREAD,
NO, IT COULDN'T BE.
IT'S JUSOUR IMAGINATION.
WELL, SORRY
TO INTERRUPT.
I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
I'VE BEEN WAITING 15 MINUTES.
YOU WERE 20 MINUTES EARLY.
I LIKE TO BE
ON TIME.
YOU WILL BE
IN FIVE MORE MINUTES.
HE SAID IT WON'T BE
MUCH LONGER NOW.
YOU THINK THIS IS
GOING TO WORK?
I KNOW THATHIS ALL SEEMS CRAZY.
I MEAN, IT SEEMS CRAZY,
BUT I DON'T KNOW
WHAT ELSE TO TRY...
I WILL TRY ANYTHING
THAT MIGHT HELP.
BUT YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT, TOO,
RIGHT?
YEAH. OH YEAH.
WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER.
LOOK, THE THING IS
JUST TO KEEP AN OPEN MIND.
I HEARD ABOUT THIS DOCTOR
FROM THIS FRIEND...
EX-FRIEND OF MINE...
AND IT KIND OF
WORKED FOR HER.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN KIND OF?
WELL, MY EX-FRIEND,
SHE WENT THROUGH IT,
AND FOUND OUMORE ABOUT HER REAL SELF,
AND NOW SHE HAS DEVOTED
THE REST OF HER LIFE TO SAVING
THE TWO-TOED
PYGMY NEWT OF BORNEO
FROM EXTINCTION.
BILL?
HARLEY?
IT'S BEEN
A LONG TIME.
I'VE BEEN
OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
BORNEO.
AND KRISTIN...HOW ARE YOU?
IT'S GOOD
TO SEE YOU, HARLEY.
THANK YOU.
YOU LOOK WONDERFUL.
YOU BOTH DO.
WELL, I'VE GOT TO GO.
OH, ARE YOU HERE TO SEE...
OH, EXCELLENT.
SHE CHANGED MY LIFE.
BYE.
THE DOCTOR WILL SEE YOU NOW.
WELL, THERE'S NOTHING
TO BE AFRAID OF.
WELL, ACTUALLY,
THERE'S LOTS TO BE AFRAID OF.
THAT'S WHY
I DON'T LEAVE THIS ROOM.
BUT THERE'S NOTHING
TO BE AFRAID OF
AS FAR AS HYPNOTISM
IS CONCERNED.
NOW, I BELIEVE
WE'RE DOING A DOUBLE?
YES.
EXCELLENT.
I MUST WARN YOU
THAT NO ONE CAN BE SURE
WHAT HE WILL FIND
UNDER PAST-LIFE HYPNOSIS,
BUT REST ASSURED
THAT WHAT YOU FIND
IS SURE TO BE ENLIGHTENING.
SHALL WE BEGIN?
SURE.
OKAY.
NOW, I'D LIKE YOU
TO JUST SIT BACK...
AND RELAX.
GAZE AT THE CRYSTAL,
AND LISTEN ONLY
TO THE SOUND OF MY VOICE.
HEAR ONLY THE SOUND OF MY VOICE.
HEAR JUST MY VOICE
AND NOTICE THAT YOUR FEEAND LEGS ARE FEELING HEAVY...
AND YOUR SHOULDERS
ARE HEAVY ALSO,
AND LET THEM JUST REST,
AND RELAX
AS YOU HEAR MY VOICE...
AND EVEN CLOSE YOUR EYES
AS YOU LISTEN.
YOUR EYELIDS FEEL HEAVY.
RELAX.
JUST RELAX...
AND NOW YOU ARE SLEEPING...
AND YOU FEEL FREE.
IT FEELS LIKE A DREAM.
AND YOU ARE FREE
TO LOOK WITHIN...
AND SEE...
WELL, THAT'S ENOUGH FOR TODAY.
WELCOME BACK.
WELL, WHO'D LIKE
TO BEGIN?
DO YOU WANT TO GO?
IT WAS...
IT WAS GREAT.
IT WAS REALLY INTERESTING.
I WAS...
I WAS A ROMAN.
THEN I WAS A...
I WAS A KNIGHT.
AND I WAS A FARMER.
I WAS A PIONEER.
AND I WAS THIS...
BUSINESSMAN--
OLD, OLD-FASHIONED BUSINESSMAN.
YOU DIDN'T WASTE ANY TIME,
DID YOU, YOU BUSY BOY?
KRISTIN,
DID YOU EXPERIENCE ANY INSIGHTS?
I SAW MYSELF IN THE SNOW.
YOU SAW YOURSELF IN THE SNOW?
YES.
AND WHAT ELSE?
NOTHING ELSE.
I WAS IN THE SNOW.
PLAYING IN THE SNOW.
IT WAS WHITE
ALL AROUND ME.
I PLAYED IN THE SNOW.
WELL, I MUST SAY,
I'VE NEVER HAD A READING
LIKE THIS BEFORE.
IN TERMS OF AN INTERPRETATION
OF WHAT THAT IS,
I THINK WE CAN SAY THAT SNOW
IS IMPORTANT TO YOUR IDENTITY.
MS. LILLY,
IF A PERSON HAS NO PAST,
NOT JUST CAN'T REMEMBER,
BUT HAS NONE...
IS THAT POSSIBLE?
WELL, IT WOULD BE VERY UNUSUAL.
CAN A PERSON
JUST APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE?
YOU HAVE TO COME
FROM SOMEWHERE.
WE JUST DON'T KNOW WHERE YET.
HERE YOU ARE.
YOU'RE A REAL PERSON,
AREN'T YOU?
YES.
YES, SHE IS.
SHE IS A REAL PERSON.
PERHAPS ANOTHER SESSION
MIGHT REVEAL MORE.
OR YOU MIGHT TRY PRAYING.
KEEP MOVING.
FASTER. FASTER.
[ CELLPHONE RINGING ]
WHAT?
WELL, HELLO, DONALD?
MAY I CALL YOU DONALD?
YOU JUST DID.
WHO IS THIS?
YOU'RE GOING TO LIKE
WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO HEAR.
WHAT? LIKE THE SOUND
OF ME HANGING UP?
NO, NO, NO. WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
YOU KNOW THE
"PIECE OF THE POLE" CAMPAIGN?
IT'S BEEN A HUGE SUCCESS...
YEAH, I'VE HEARD THAT.
WELL, THAT'S ME,
AND AT THE RATE
THINGS ARE SELLING,
BY CHRISTMAS EVE,
THE NORTH POLE WILL JUST BE
ONE BIG VACANT LOT...
WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNOF REAL ESTATE POTENTIAL.
I KNOW WHERE YOU'RE HEADING.
YOU DO?
WHY WOULD YOU CALL ME
IF YOU WEREN'INTERESTED IN...
HIGH-RISE,
TIME-SHARE CONDOS.
HIGH-RISE,
TIME-SHARE CONDOS.
EXACTLY!
TWO WEEKS OF CHRISTMAS
ANY TIME...YEAR ROUND.
I LIKE IT.
YOU DO?
I SAID THAT.
OH, OF COURSE YOU DO.
WE'LL CALL I"RUDOLFA'S NORTH POLE HOTEL
AND CASINO".
YOU MEAN
"TRUMP'S NORTH POLE TOWER".
SOMETHING DOESN'T FEEL
QUITE RIGHT THIS YEAR.
WHAT'S THAT?
CHRISTMAS.
YOU KNOW,
SOMETHING'S MISSING.
SOMETHING ABOUT IFEELS WRONG.
LIKE I FEEL
SOMETHING ABOUT ME
IS WRONG.
KRISTIN, I THINK--
I REALLY THINK--
IT'S JUST--
JUST THE SITUATION.
NO, I'VE BEEN THINKING, BILL.
I DON'T WANT TO HURT ANYONE...
BUT I DON'T KNOW
IF IT GOOD FOR ANY OF US
FOR ME TO BE HERE RIGHT NOW.
MAYBE THE BEST THING IS
FOR ME TO GET AWAY FOR A WHILE.
KRISTIN, WHAT FOR?
I DON'T KNOW.
I SEEM TO KNOW LESS ABOUT MYSELF
THAN EVER BEFORE.
I HAVE ABSOLUTELY
NO IDEA WHO I AM.
I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER
IF I EXIST AT ALL.
HEY, HEY, YOU EXIST.
YOU'RE HERE.
I CAN TOUCH YOU.
YOU'RE REAL.
WE HAVE TO FACE IT.
SOMETHING
IS WRONG, BILL.
SOMETHING IS WRONG
WHEN UNCLE JOHNNY
THINKS I'M A CLONE
OR AN ALIEN,
AND HE MIGHBE RIGHT.
MAYBE IF I GET AWAY,
I CAN FIND OUSOMETHING ABOUT MYSELF,
IF THAT'S ALL
I'M CONCENTRATING ON.
NO, KRISTIN.
THAT IS NOTHE ANSWER.
COME ON, LET'S NOT GIVE UP.
SOMETHING'S GOING TO BREAK.
I KNOW IT WILL.
LEAVING'S
NOT GOING TO SOLVE ANYTHING.
STAY, OKAY?
WE LOVE YOU.
AND WE WANT YOU HERE.
I WANT YOU HERE.
I PROMISE YOU.
WE'LL FIND OUEXACTLY WHO YOU ARE
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
I'M TRYING TO BELIEVE THAT.
SO BELIEVE IT.
WHERE IS ALL THIS FAITH
YOU ARE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT?
MAYBE IT'S TIME
YOU HAD A LITTLE FAITH YOURSELF.
WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THE PRICE.
ISN'T THAT NICE?
BUY A PIECE OF THE POLE
AND REMEMBER,
YOU CAN HAVE THE NORTH POLE
RIGHT IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND.
SO ORDER NOW
IT'S TIME TO BUY
WE ARE CARRYING A BIG SUPPLY
DON'T DELAY
THEY WON'T LAST
THEY'RE VERY POPULAR
AND GOING FAST
THESE PIECES THAT ARE GENUINE
REAL SANTA'S VILLAGE BRICKS
EACH GUARANTEED AND CERTIFIED
NO LIES, NO FAKES, NO TRICKS
PAY WHAT YOU CAN--
WELL,
I'VE LOOKED AND I'VE LOOKED,
BUT MY GLASSES AREN'T HERE,
NOR ARE
ANY OF THE WRITING UTENSILS
IN MY OFFICE.
AND THAT'S NOT ALL.
MANY OF THE GIFTS
FROM THE PRESENT ROOM ARE GONE,
AND SEVERAL OF MY BOOKS
ARE MISSING.
WELL, THAT IS STRANGE.
IT WOULD HELP TO EXPLAIN
SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS.
I'VE NOTICED
SOME OF THE THINGS
FROM KRISTIN'S ROOM
ARE MISSING ALSO.
KRISTIN'S ROOM?
YES.
AND WHOLE SIDES OF BUILDINGS
ARE MISSING.
SO THE POLE
IS DISAPPEARING.
LET'S NOT JUMP
TO ANY CONCLUSIONS.
BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY THEY DON'WANT ME
TO BE SANTA ANYMORE.
IT'S TRUE I'VE BEEN
TARDY ON OCCASION,
BUT I'VE ALWAYS
GOT THE JOB DONE.
THERE IS SOMETHING
ELSE AS WELL.
WHAT'S THAT?
MOST OF YOUR UNDERWEAR
SEEMS TO BE MISSING.
THEY WOULD DO THAT?
AND THAT'S REALLY HOW I WORK,
WHICH I GUESS IS A HOLD-OVER
FROM WHEN I WAS
A JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL.
WHICH I HAD TO STOP.
THIS JUST SEEMED LIKE
THE MOST LOGICAL TRANSITION.
SO, SHALL WE GET STARTED?
OF COURSE, YOU KNOW
THAT EVERYTHING
DEPENDS UPON YOUR COLORS.
WELL, WE'RE GETTING MARRIED
ON CHRISTMAS DAY,
SO I GUESS IT'S PRETTY MUCH
ALL ABOUT RED AND GREEN.
YES, THAT WOULD BE
THE "TRADITIONAL" WAY TO GO...
OF COURSE, THERE ARE
MANY DIFFERENT SHADES
OF THOSE COLORS.
OKAY.
HOW ABOUONE OF THE SHADES
THAT PEOPLE USUALLY
ASSOCIATE WITH CHRISTMAS?
YES...
YOU ARE THE CLIENT.
IT IS YOU TWO WHO ARE
GETTING MARRIED?
YEAH.
WE HOPE.
YOU HOPE?
THE RETAINER IS BINDING.
CAN WE JUSCONTINUE, PLEASE?
OF COURSE.
NOW, HOW MANY BRIDESMAIDS
ARE YOU PLANNING?
BRIDESMAIDS?
I REALLY DON'T KNOW
THAT MANY PEOPLE.
THERE'S BRITTANY,
NATURALLY.
AND NO OTHER
FAMILY OR FRIENDS?
WE ALWAYS PLANNED,
LIKE, A SMALL WEDDING.
MY SON, KYLE,
WILL BE THE BEST MAN.
MY MOM AND DAD,
MAYBE THE KIDS'
UNCLE JOHNNY.
NO ONE ELSE ON YOUR SIDE?
NO FAMILY OR FRIENDS?
NO.
WELL, WHY DON'T WE
GO INTO
THE SOCIAL HALL?
I'M SURE THERE IS SOMETHING
HAT COULD BE DONE IN THERE.
GREAT.
COME WITH ME.
JUST KIND OF
GO WITH ME HERE.
I'M SEEING
RED AND WHITE,
MAYBE A CHRISTMAS
TREE HERE.
KRISTIN?
BILL, IF YOU DON'T MIND
JUST GOING AHEAD,
I'LL BE RIGHT IN.
I JUST NEED A MOMENT.
BILL?
COMING.
YES?
LORD, I ASK FOR YOUR HELP.
I PRAY FOR YOUR GUIDANCE.
PLEASE SHOW ME.
HELP ME KNOW WHO I AM.
KRISTIN?
KRISTIN?
HEY.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GOING TO COME HELP ME
IN THE SOCIAL HALL.
I AM. I'M READY.
THAT'S GOOD.
DID SOMETHING HAPPEN?
DID YOU REMEMBER SOMETHING?
I REMEMBERED TO HAVE HOPE.
I REMEMBERED TO TRUST.
YOU KNOW, CHRISTMAS IS COMING,
AND I INTEND TO MARRY YOU.
I INTEND TO MARRY YOU VERY MUCH.
THEN WE'D BETTER HURRY.
UM...
DID I MENTION THAT MY PARENTS
ARE COMING IN A FEW DAYS?
NO, BUT I CAN'T WAITO MEET THEM.
OKAY.
VERY GOOD. VERY GOOD.
HERE'S THE CONTRACFROM DONALD.
OUTRAGEOUS!
THIS IS NOWHAT I AGREED TO.
OH...
OH, GLITCH.
WHAT A SURPRISE.
I WASN'T EXPECTING
TO SEE YOU.
GIVE ME A MOMENTO GO FIX MYSELF.
NO, NO, NO, NO.
DON'T BOTHER.
I JUST CAME BY
TO GIVE YOU MY BILL.
BILL?
I THOUGHT YOU AND I
MEANT SO MUCH MORE
TO EACH OTHER THAN THAT.
I MEAN, WE HAVE
SO MUCH IN COMMON.
DESTRUCTION.
MEGALOMANIA.
WE BOTH LOVE
TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE
MISERABLE.
IT'S TRUE,
YOU'RE A FUN DATE,
BUT I'M GLOBAL.
YOU CAN'T KEEP UP.
BUT CAN'T WE TRY?
HURRY UP.
WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
OH, GLITCH? GLITCH?
WHOA. LOOK AT THIS STUFF.
THIS IS REALLY COOL.
SHE'S GOING TO LOVE
THIS STUFF.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
"FROM DADDY TO KRISTIN,
"THOSE WHO BELIEVE
ARE ALWAYS REWARDED
WITH THE TRUTH."
THAT'S FUNNY.
WHAT?
WHAT'S ON THIS DOLL.
IT'S THE EXACT SAME THING
KRISTIN SAID TO ME
THE OTHER DAY,
AND IT'S INSCRIBED "TO KRISTIN."
YEAH, RIGHT.
"FROM DADDY
TO KRISTIN."
YOU KNOW
SOMETHING WEIRD?
YOU THINK I'M RIGHT,
DON'T YOU?
YOU KNOW IT.
YOU FEEL IT, TOO.
SANTA'S DAUGHTER
IS IN THE HOUSE.
I'M RIGHT, I'M RIGHT.
MY BROTHER BELIEVES ME.
IT'S A MIRACLE.
RIGHT.
OH, MY GOD,
I'M RIGHT!
CALM DOWN.
LET'S JUST SAY
FOR A SECOND THAT I DO.
HERE'S THE PROBLEM.
WHAT?
WE CAN'T TELL ANYBODY.
WHY NOT?
WHY NOT?
'CAUSE EVERYBODY
WILL THINK WE'RE CRAZY.
THAT'S WHY NOT.
YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT.
NO, I'M DEFINITELY RIGHT.
YOU SWEAR
YOU WON'T TELL ANYBODY?
OKAY.
IT'S FOR EVERYBODY'S
OWN GOOD.
I MEAN, I'M GOING
TO HIGH SCHOOL NEXT YEAR.
I'VE GOT TO START PLANNING
MY SURVIVAL,
AND TELLING PEOPLE
THAT I LIVE
WITH SANTA'S DAUGHTER
PROBABLY NOT GOING TO GET ME OFF
TO THE START I NEED.
BUT STILL...
IT'S THE COOLEST SECREIN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
YOU TWO
ARE UP EARLY.
WE HAVE AN EARLY
CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR YOU.
WELL,
I THINK IT'S BETTER TO WAIT.
WE THINK YOU'LL
WANT TO SEE THIS.
OKAY.
"TO THE KRISTIN
WE KNOW AND LOVE.
BRITTANY AND KYLE."
THAT IS SO SWEET,
YOU GUYS.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
I'M KRISTIN.
KRISTIN CLAUS.
I AM SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
I WAS BORN AND RAISED
AT THE NORTH POLE.
I'M IN CHARGE
OF THE MAIL DEPARTMENT.
ALL THE LETTERS
FROM CHILDREN ALL OVER THE WORLD
COME TO ME.
I HAVE...
I HAVE POWERS.
DON'T THINK TWICE
WE DON'T CARE
ABOUT THE PRICE...
I HAVE A SISTER NAMED "RUDOLFA".
BUY A PIECE OF THE POLE
IT'S NOT TOO LATE.
YOU CAN STILL GEYOUR PIECE OF THE POLE,
THOUGH AT THIS LATE DATE,
THERE ISN'T MUCH LEFT.
WHO KNOWS,
MAYBE SANTA
WILL HAVE TO DELIVER
YOUR PIECE OR ARTIFACHIMSELF.
AFTER ALL,
WHAT ELSE IS HE DOING?
DID THIS COME FROM HER?
YEAH.
IT CAME WITH
A FEW OTHER PIECES
OF THE POLE.
WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE
THE PERFECT GIFT FOR YOU.
EVERYBODY HAS THEM.
THEY'RE LIKE
THE HOTTEST THING.
THERE MUST BE THOUSANDS
OF PIECES OF THE POLE HERE...
ALL OVER THE WORLD.
MORE LIKE MILLIONS.
BUT WHAT ABOUTHE NORTH POLE...
IF ALL THIS STUFF IS HERE,
WHAT'S LEFT THERE?
WHAT ABOUT MY MOM AND DAD?
IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS EVE.
HOW CAN THERE BE A CHRISTMAS
IF THERE IS NO NORTH POLE?
I'VE GOT TO GET BACK
TO THE POLE.
WE HAVE TO GO NOW.
WE?
OF COURSE "WE".
WE'RE A FAMILY, RIGHT?
WE'RE GOING TOGETHER.
DON'T YOU WANT TO GO?
ARE YOU KIDDING?
GO TO THE NORTH POLE?
LET'S GO!
THIS IS GREAT.
HOW DO WE GET THERE?
I REMEMBER NOW.
I REMEMBER EVERYTHING.
I KNOW HOW TO GET US THERE.
BRITTANY, I AM SORRY
THAT I DOUBTED YOU.
YOU WERE RIGHT.
IT'S NOT PROOF,
IT'S FAITH.
I JUST NEEDED
MORE FAITH.
OH, BUT WE HAVE TO
TELL YOUR DAD.
I CAN'T WAIT TO TELL HIM.
I KNOW WHO I AM!
BILL!
HONEY? HONEY, WAKE UP.
DAD, WE HAVE
SOMETHING TO TELL YOU.
WHAT, WHAT, WHAT?
WHAT'S WRONG? WHAT IS IT?
HEY, DID YOU REMEMBER SOMETHING?
I KNOW, BILL.
I KNOW WHO I AM.
THAT'S GREAT.
WHO?
BRITTANY WAS RIGHALL ALONG.
I'M KRISTIN CLAUS.
I'M SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
I REALLY AM.
THAT'S GREAT.
IT ALL CAME BACK TO ME
WHEN THE KIDS GAVE ME THE DOLL
THEY GOT FROM THE NORTH POLE.
IT'S MY DOLL
FROM WHEN I WAS SMALL.
THAT'S SOMETHING.
I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT,
BUT WE HAVE TO GO.
OKAY.
AND WHERE ARE WE GOING?
THE NORTH POLE.
THE PLACE IS BEING SOLD OFF
BY KRISTIN'S SISTER, RUDOLFA.
AND WE HAVE TO
HELP KRISTIN
FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO
TO SAVE IT.
WITH MY SISTER
SELLING OFF MILLIONS
OF PIECES OF THE PLACE,
WHO KNOWS WHAT'S LEFT?
CAN YOU IMAGINE?
I'M TRYING.
EVERYBODY
HAS TO GET DRESSED.
WE'VE GOT TO GET GOING.
THERE'S NOA MOMENT TO LOSE.
YOU DON'T KNOW MY SISTER.
BILL, BRITTANY,
ARE YOU GUYS READY?
OKAY, OKAY, OKAY.
HERE I AM.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH, I'M FINE.
I'M BETTER
THAN ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE GETTING MARRIED
FOR SURE, RIGHT?
WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
I'M GREAT.
YOU DON'T BELIEVE
I'M SANTA'S DAUGHTER, DO YOU?
IF THAT IS WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE,
THEN THAT IS
WHO I BELIEVE YOU ARE.
OKAY. LET'S GO.
NOW WE'RE GOING
TO BE BACK
IN TIME FOR
THE WEDDING, RIGHT?
'CAUSE MY PARENTS
ARE IN TOWN.
WE'RE TRYING TO SAVE CHRISTMAS
RIGHT NOW, BILL.
I WANT TO BE MARRIED TO YOU
MORE THAN ANYTHING,
BUT AT THIS MOMENT,
THERE IS SOMETHING VERY SERIOUS
HAPPENING TO MY HOME,
AND BECAUSE MY HOME
IS THE NORTH POLE,
IT'S IMPORTANT TO EVERYBODY.
WE'RE GOING,
AND IF YOU BELIEVE
I AM WHO I KNOW I AM,
YOU'LL BE GOING WITH US.
OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
I BELIEVE YOU.
OKAY.
BRITTANY?
OKAY, EVERYBODY,
OW, CLOSE YOUR EYES,
AND BELIEVE.
BELIEVE.
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE.
OKAY, KRISTIN?
COME ON, GUYS.
THE GAME IS UP, ALL RIGHT?
GUYS?
SNOW.
"FROM DADDY TO KRISTIN,
"THOSE WHO BELIEVE
ARE ALWAYS
REWARDED WITH THE TRUTH."
THIS IS
THE NORTH POLE?
FORGET MERRY.
THIS IS
SCARY CHRISTMAS.
WHERE'S DAD?
MAYBE MY POWER
WASN'T STRONG ENOUGH
TO GET US ALL HERE.
WELL, I'M GOING
TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING
SO I CAN TELL HIM
ABOUT IWHEN WE GET BACK.
ME TOO,
ALTHOUGH I MAY LEAVE
THIS PART OUT.
YEAH.
IT'S WORSE THAN I THOUGHT.
DAD?
MOM?
COME WITH ME.
DAD!
NO, NO IT COULDN'T BE.
DAD, IT'S ME.
IT'S KRISTIN.
KRISTIN.
ARE YOU BACK?
HAVE YOU COME BACK?
YES, DAD. I'M HERE.
WHAT CAN I DO?
THERE'S NOTHING
THAT CAN BE DONE.
BUT WHERE'S MOTHER?
SHE'S PACKING WHAT LITTLE
THEY'VE LEFT US.
WE'RE LEAVING.
EVERYONE ELSE
HAS ALREADY GONE...
I GUESS I KNEW THIS
WOULD HAPPEN ONE DAY.
THE NEW SANTA IS
OUT THERE RIGHT NOW,
GETTING THE GIFTS READY,
MAKING PEOPLE HAPPY,
JUST LIKE I USED TO DO.
WHAT NEW SANTA?
WHEN THEY DON'T WANT YOU,
IT'S CRUEL,
EVEN FOR SANTA,
BUT I HAD A LONG RUN,
BUT YOU LOSE A STEP...
AND THEY PUSH YOU
DOWN THE STAIRS.
DAD, THAT'S NOT TRUE.
IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK
IS GOING ON?
IT ISN'T.
DAD, IT'S...
IT'S RUDOLFA...
I KNOW SHE'S DONE
HER FAIR SHARE OF MISCHIEF
IN THE PAST.
BUT, NO, THIS TIME, IT'S ME.
I'VE DONE SOMETHING
TO DESERVE THIS,
BUT I--
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
OOH!
DAD, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET--
KYLE AND BRITTANY.
BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN.
OH, DEAR.
I DON'T HAVE
THE LITTLEST THING
TO GIVE THEM
FOR CHRISTMAS.
IT'S SO EMBARRASSING.
DAD, NOW, DON'T YOU WORRY.
IT'S NOT EVEN
CHRISTMAS EVE YET.
I WANT YOU TO DO
WHAT YOU ALWAYS TAUGHT ME--
HAVE HOPE.
HAVE FAITH.
"THOSE WHO BELIEVE
ARE REWARDED WITH THE TRUTH."
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS
THAT EVEN I
DON'T BELIEVE IN SANTA
IF THIS IS MY REWARD.
DAD, YOU ARE SANTA CLAUS.
DON'T EVER FORGET WHO YOU ARE.
AND IT ISN'T BECAUSE
YOU HAVE A WHITE BEARD
AND WEAR A RED SUIT.
IT'S BECAUSE IN YOUR EYES
ARE THE HOPES
OF MILLIONS OF CHILDREN.
ON YOUR SHOULDERS
IS THE WEIGHOF MILLIONS OF DREAMS
WAITING TO BE DELIVERED.
YOU ARE SO IMPORTANTO THE WORLD, DAD,
NOT ONLY BECAUSE YOU GIVE,
BUT BECAUSE YOU SHOW OTHERS
WHAT IT IS TO GIVE.
THAT'S WHO SANTA CLAUS IS
AND THAT'S WHO YOU ARE,
AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO GETHE NORTH POLE BACK FOR YOU.
OH, KRISTIN.
DON'T WORRY, DAD.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.
I'M SO GLAD WE'VE BEEN ABLE
TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT, DONALD,
FINALLY.
I'VE GOT TO GO.
KRISTIN!
HOW SURPRISING
TO SEE YOU.
NEW YEAR. SAME YOU.
HAVE YOU TAKEN UP HAIKU
SINCE YOU ABANDONED US?
YOU WON'GET AWAY WITH THIS.
THAT OLD SONG.
TAKE A LOOK AROUND,
KRISTIN.
I'VE ALREADY GOTTEN
AWAY WITH IT.
DID YOU NOTICE?
THERE'S ALMOST NOTHING LEFOF YOUR PRECIOUS POLE.
I SAW IT.
SO PERFECT.
EVERYBODY WANTED
HIS OR HER OWN
PIECE OF THE POLE.
"BELIEVE THIS, BELIEVE THAT."
IT'S ALL TALK, REALLY.
WHAT THEY CARE ABOUIS HAVING SOMETHING
THEY CAN HOLD IN THEIR HANDS.
RIGHT, KIDS?
MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD?
THEN BRICK BY BRICK, BYE-BYE.
WE JUST THOUGHIT WOULD BE
A NICE GIFT.
SANTA CLAUS ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE
THIS YEAR.
THE SLEIGH
IS IN A HUNDRED PIECES
SPREAD OUIN THE GRUBBY LITTLE HANDS
OF HALF A DOZEN COUNTRIES.
AND THE REINDEER?
I SOLD THEM
TO A COLLECTOR IN OHIO.
BOUGHT THE WHOLE SET.
THE REINDEER ARE GONE?
FILTHY ANIMALS.
I SAY "GOOD RIDDANCE."
IT'S ALL BEEN SOLD.
WHY NOT?
PEOPLE GREEDY
FOR CHRISTMAS
BOUGHT IT ALL,
AND WHILE THEY WERE BUYING IT,
THEY DESTROYED IT.
SO NOW...
RUDOLFA AND DONALD'S
HOTEL AND CASINO IS GOING UP.
WE'RE PAVING PARADISE
AND PUTTING UP A PARKING LOT--
SEVERAL, IN FACT.
MY GUESS IS
THE SAME PEOPLE THAT BOUGHTHE PIECES OF THE POLE
WILL BE THE ONES
THAT WILL MAKE THE TREK HERE
TO STAY AT THE HOTEL.
BY THE WAY, DO YOU KNOW
WHO OWNS THE SOUTH POLE?
BECAUSE
AT THIS POINT IN MY CAREER,
I DON'T KNOW,
I FEEL THE NEED
TO GO...REALLY GLOBAL.
WELL, I CAN FIND OUT.
BECAUSE WHEN
YOU'RE HOT IN THIS BUSINESS,
YOU HAVE TO KEEP ON THE MOVE.
THEY'VE GOALL THOSE PENGUINS UP THERE.
I CAN PROBABLY
SELL THOSE OFF LIKE CHICKENS.
ONCE THE BIRDS ARE GONE,
THE BUILDING BEGINS.
WOW. THAT WAS
YOUR SISTER?
GOOD OL' SIS.
POOR CHRISTMAS.
GOD RESYE MERRY PRESENTS
UNDER THE TREE YOU GO
TONIGHT KRISTIN
IS MAKING FOOD
INTO MY MOUTH IT'LL GO
WE'LL EAT AND EAAND EAT SOME MORE
AND THEN WE'LL EAT SOME MORE
HEY, BILL.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
WHERE ARE THE KRISTIN
AND THE KIDS?
GONE.
"GONE" AS IN SHOPPING?
OR GONE AS IN..."GONE"?
GONE AS IN...
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT EVEN SURE
THAT "GONE" REALLY COVERS IT.
BOY, THAT'S BAD.
"GONE" COVERS A LOT.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW THIS COULD BE...
BUT I DON'T HAVE
ANOTHER EXPLANATION
FOR IT.
DO YOU MIND IF I SIT?
I HAVE A FEELING
THIS COULD TAKE A WHILE.
WHAT ARE WE
GOING TO DO, KRISTIN?
SO ORDER NOW
IT'S TIME TO BUY
WE ARE CARRYING
A BIG SUPPLY
DON'T DELAY
THEY WON'T LAST...
FOLLOW ME.
EACH GUARANTEED AND CERTIFIED
NO LIES, NO FAKES, NO TRICKS
PAY WHAT YOU CAN
DON'T THINK TWICE
WE DON'T CARE
ABOUT THE PRICE
ISN'T THAT NICE?
BUY A PIECE OF THE POLE
NOW YOU CAN OWN
YOUR OWN PIECE OF THE POLE...
HEY, THIS IS THE STUFF
FROM THE COMMERCIAL.
WE'RE GOING TO BROADCASONE LAST TIME.
STANDBY FOR TRANSMISSION.
THERE IS ONE THING
WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO.
OH, WAHOO?
KRISTIN?
WE HAVE TO FIGURE
THIS THING OUT,
AND FAST.
THAT'S RIGHT.
FOR A LIMITED TIME,
YOU TOO
CAN OWN A PIECE OF THE POLE.
I LOVE HER.
I KNOW THAT.
AND I WAS HERE WHEN THEY...
WHEN THEY DISAPPEARED IN THAT...
THAT SWIRL OF SNOW.
I SAW THAT.
SO...THAT MUST BE...
SOME KIND OF PROOF
THAT KRISTIN IS...
THAT KRISTIN
IS SANTA'S DAUGHTER.
WHAT?
THAT'S THE ONLY THING
THAT MAKES SENSE.
THAT MAKES SENSE
AND CLONING DOESN'T?
JOHNNY, SHE COMES
OUT OF NOWHERE, RIGHT?
SHE SHOWS UP HERE
WITH A BIG RED VELVET BAG
FOR HER LUGGAGE.
SHE'S AN EXPERON CHRISTMAS.
HER FAVORITE COLORS
ARE RED AND GREEN.
I MEAN, HER FAVORITE SONG
IS "SILENT NIGHT".
SHE'S THE MOST LOVING,
THE MOST FORGIVING PERSON
I'VE EVER MET...
AND HER NAME IS KRISTIN CLAUS.
YOU LUCKY...
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
NOW THAT I KNOW IT,
I KNOW I'VE KNOWN IALL ALONG.
I JUST--
I WAS AFRAID
TO ADMIT IT.
YOU'RE LOSING ME.
WELL, I LOVE HER.
BUT TO BE MARRIED
TO SANTA'S DAUGHTER?
THAT'S A LITTLE STRANGE,
DON'T YOU THINK?
YEAH, THAT IS STRANGE...
THINK OF THE STORY
IN THE TABLOIDS.
JOHNNY, IF YOU WANTO SPEND ANOTHER MINUTE
UNDER THIS ROOF,
DON'T EVEN
THINK THAT AGAIN.
OH, MY GOD, YOU'RE RIGHT.
IF WE GET MARRIED,
THEN KRISTIN
COULD NEVER EVEN
BREATHE A WORD
OF WHO SHE REALLY IS...
PLEASE STAND BY WHAT?
THE THING IS
THAT THE NORTH POLE
DOESN'T BELONG
TO ANY ONE PERSON.
IT CAN'T,
BECAUSE IT ALREADY BELONGS
TO EVERYONE--
TO EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES,
AND IT CAN ONLY EXISIF EVERYONE BELIEVES
IN THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES
THE NORTH POLE POWERFUL.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT IMPORTANT.
IT'S EVERYONE BELIEVING
TOGETHER.
BUT NOW WITH PEOPLE HAVING
THEIR OWN LITTLE
"PIECE OF THE POLE,"
WANTING IT FOR THEMSELVES,
IT'S BEEN LOST.
THERE IS ONLY ONE HOPE.
IT'S GOING TO TAKE EVERYONE
BELIEVING WITH ME.
EVERYONE WHO HAS
A PIECE OF THE NORTH POLE,
YOU HAVE TO GEYOUR PIECE OF THE NORTH POLE
AND PUT IT IN YOUR HAND,
AND YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
VERY HARD.
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
WITH EVERYTHING
YOU HAVE IN YOU.
YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE
IN THE NORTH POLE
AND SANTA CLAUS AND CHRISTMAS.
YOU HAVE TO CLOSE YOUR EYES
AND SEE WITH YOUR HEART,
AND MAYBE A MIRACLE
WILL HAPPEN.
BELIEVE.
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE...
BELIEVE VERY HARD.
BELIEVE WITH ME...
BELIEVE WITH ALL YOUR HEART...
THANK YOU.
SHE'S THE WORLD'S
MOST INCREDIBLE PERSON,
AND SHE LOVES ME,
AND I'M SITTING HERE
WONDERING ABOUT WHAT?
THIS DOESN'T MATTER.
'CAUSE WE'RE GOING TO GETHROUGH THIS,
NO MATTER WHAT,
BECAUSE WE'RE ALL
GOING TO HAVE EACH OTHER,
AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS.
THAT'S THE ONLY THING
THAT COUNTS.
OKAY...
I BELIEVE.
BILL!
DADDY!
DAD!
OH, GUYS!
I'M SORRY
I DIDN'T BELIEVE BEFORE,
BUT I DO NOW.
I BELIEVE IN YOU,
AND IN US, AND IN THIS,
MORE THAN I EVER
THOUGHT I POSSIBLY COULD.
I KNOW YOU DO.
YOU COULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN HERE
IF YOU DIDN'T.
WELL, NICE TRY, KRISTIN.
TOO BAD IT DIDN'T WORK.
BILL...
THIS IS MY SISTER, RUDOLFA.
ARE YOU KIDDING?
IT'S NICE
TO MEET YOU.
HEY, LOOK.
WHAT IS IT?
THE PIECES
OF THE POLE.
THEY'RE
COMING HOME.
NO, NO, NO, NO!
OH, NO, NO, NO, NO!
I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!
WHEN AM I EVER GOING TO
CATCH A BREAK?
KRISTIN!
WHAT HAPPENED?
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TIME
TO TELL YOU RIGHT NOW, DAD.
CHRISTMAS IS SAVED.
YOU HAVE TO
GET GOING.
WELL, THIS IS
WONDERFUL!
EVEN BETTER.
RUDOLFA!
THE REINDEER
AREN'T BACK YET.
I KNOW.
I'LL GO GET IN THE HARNESS.
I THOUGHT I BURNT THIS.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, DAD.
IT WILL BE NOW--
A MERRY CHRISTMAS FOR US ALL.
YOU'VE DONE IT, KRISTIN.
DAD, THIS IS BILL.
HELLO, BILL.
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY.
THANK YOU, SANTA.
I JUST SAID THAT,
DIDN'T I?
QUICKLY!
HELP ME FILL UP THE SLEIGH.
WE'VE GOT THE PRESENTS
IN THE PRESENT ROOM.
COME ON, LET'S GO.
[ SANTA ]: MERRY CHRISTMAS!
LEAD THE WAY, RUDOLFA.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
YOU HAVE COMMITTED
TO EACH OTHER
TO SHARE,
TO LISTEN,
TO LOVE.
I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU
HUSBAND AND WIFE.
DO YOU WANT TO MAKE
THESE INTRODUCTIONS
OR SHOULD I?
MAYBE BOTH OF US.
TOGETHER.
MOM, DAD?
COME HERE.
I WANT YOU
TO MEET SOMEONE.
THESE ARE
KRISTIN'S PARENTS.

THAT'S A VERY PRETTY DRESS
YOU'RE WEARING, CLARA.
THANK YOU.
I'VE HAD IT FOREVER.
OH.
SO...
WHY DON'T WE GO EAT?
SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA.
I HAVE A COMPLAINT.
I DIDN'T GEWHAT I WANTED
FOR CHRISTMAS
THIS YEAR, SANTA.
WELL, DON'T BE
TOO SURPRISED.
YOU WEREN'VERY NICE THIS YEAR...
NOT VERY NICE AT ALL,
I'M AFRAID.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?
NOW, DAD...
WELL, HE ASKED ME.
THE MAN COMES
TO HIS OWN DAUGHTER'S WEDDING
DRESSED IN A SANTA SUIT.
WHAT IS THAT?
SOME KIND
OF A JOKE?
I ASSURE YOU, SIR, IT IS NOT.
I DON'T THINK I LIKE YOUR TONE.
IT'S PEOPLE LIKE YOU
THAT MAKE MY JOB
SO DIFFICULT.
PEOPLE LIKE ME?
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW
PEOPLE LIKE ME, I'M SURE.
DAD...
CAN TALK
ABOUT THIS LATER?
WELL, NOW,
ISN'T THIS GOING TO BE FUN?
WE COULD ALL
DO BETTER.
THAT'S WHAT I MEANT.
THANK YOU.
AHEM.
YES, WELL, I SUPPOSE WE COULD.
COME ON, DEAR.
HOW ABOUT A FINAL PHOTO
WITH YOUR FAVORITE UNCLE?
YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
THIS IS OUR BESCHRISTMAS EVER.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF US
AND FOR ALL THE CHRISTMAS's
TO COME.
