Vampirina: Teenage Vampire (2025) s01e10 Episode Script

1
Wow.
Human Christmas
is so different
from Transylvania's
winter solstice.
There are no toes
in your mistletoe.
Silly us.
Come on,
it's Secret Santa time.
Now, remember,
the most important rule
-is to keep--
-To keep your person a secret
until the big gift exchange.
Relax, Sophie.
I'm a grade-A secret keeper.
I found out you're a vampire
within two days of knowing you.
Okay. C-plus.
-Over here.
-Vee, Sophie.
-Who invited Britney to Secret Santa?
-I did.
This is my first
human Christmas, and I wanna do it right.
Isn't the holiday spirit
about including everyone?
Even your frenemies?
Yeah, I guess.
I'll try and have goodwill
toward men
and divas.
-Hey, guys. Ready for secret Santa?
-Mmm-hmm.
Do we have to draw a name?
I've already given you
the gift of my attendance.
[note playing]
[in sing-song voice]
My presence is the present ♪
[chuckles] Whoa, Britney, your pitch pipe
had a glow-up. Can I see?
[in normal voice] Careful.
That's my lucky Christmas pitch pipe.
I've landed the lead
in every holiday show, thanks to it.
I got it
from my third cousin, Mariah Carey.
Queen of Christmas.
Heard of her?
My third cousin
is Marie-Antoinette. Actual queen.
Heard of her?
Okay. If we're done
dropping names,
let's get to drawing them.
[electronic song playing]
It's a merry,
merry Christmas ♪
Got the money in the bank
and the gifts nice ♪
I take care

We're related

Season's greetings
from your favorite Spotlights.
Is that Dean Merriweather?
Yes, your dean
can still bust a move.
-[bones cracking]
-And a hip.
Well, Dean Merriweather
isn't just a Wilson Hall alum,
she was a Spotlight, too.
-Once a sister, always a sister.
-[chuckles] That's right.
[girls gasp]
[coughs]
They answered my question,
but now I have more.
Dean announcement.
Our annual holiday pageant
for the town is this Friday,
and, as usual,
due to so many
talented performers at Wilson Hall,
our first-years will perform
the iconic role of stagehands.
What? But what
about exceptional first-year Spotlights
like me?
Sorry, sis. Maybe next year.
Gatekeepers gotta gatekeep.
And remember, dear, there are no
small parts, only small actors.
And even smaller
extracurricular budgets.
-[song continues]
-Oh. Oh. Okay. Okay, we going now.
We going. Whoo!

Hey, Dems. You said you needed help
with your Secret Santa gift?
Yes. Uh, I know
I can't tell you who it is,
but, eh, she's a deejay.
She lives with Vee,
and her name rhymes
with Sophie.
[sarcastically] Wow. I think I might know
who you're talking about.
Whoa. What's the problem?
Well, we both picked
each other's names,
and I need to get her
a great gift
because three months ago
I mentioned that I wanted these
and she remembered.
[Elijah] Uh oh, okay.
Demi, I mean,
that's breaking the rules of Secret Santa,
and, like, common courtesy.
What is it?
Cargo pants.
Sorry, did you say
cargo pants?
Elijah, they're utility
and beauty woven together
in one garment.
Each pocket a possibility.
Cargo pants
aren't just a gift,
they're a way of life.
Uh, fine, I'll help you.
But first, we gotta get you out
of this attic and touch some grass.
Let's go.
[Megan] All right, reindeer.
-[pop music playing on stereo]
-Five, six, seven, eight.
-[thudding]
-[music stops]
You call that trotting?
Okay, you can't
pull Santa's sleigh
if you're not slay-ing.
Guys, listen, I'm Britney's
Secret Santa and--
Vee, Secret Santa.
It's in the name.
Right. And I secretly
have the best idea for Britney's gift.
Watch me work
some holiday magic.
Greetings of the darkest
season, Megan.
I have a request.
I got Britney
for Secret Santa--
Girl, it's supposed
to be a secret.
[sighs] And I'd be
forever grateful
if you would let her
join your pageant finale.
After all, she is a Spotlight.
And isn't this time of year
about doing nice things for others?
Ew.
Bah, humbug.
Okay. Then,
isn't this time of year
about cashing-in
brownie points
so you can get
nice gifts from Santa?
Hmm.
I have been
pretty naughty this year.
Britney, get over here.
Yes, Megan?
Prove you can pick up
the background choreo,
and you can be in the finale.
-Really?
-Yes.
Hurry up and get ready.
Oh. [chuckles] You don't
have to get ready when you are
[note playing]
[in sing-song voice]
born ready ♪
[in normal voice, kisses]
Thank you, lucky pitch pipe.
I knew you'd come through.
Thank you, Megan.
I didn't do it for you.
I did it for Santa.
[beeps]
Frosty to Rudolph.
My Secret Santa mission
is working. Over.
Rudolph to Frosty.
It's a Christmas miracle. Over.
You guys are, like,
two feet apart from each other.
-Five, six, seven, eight.
-[pop music playing on stereo]
[gasps] No Dasher, no Dancer,
no Prancer, no Vixen.
My pitch pipe.
It's ruined.
Britney, what's the matter
with you?
Nothing. I just, uh
[sighs]
I need a minute.
[sighs]
This Secret Santa stuff
is a lot of work.
Hey, Britney.
-So, should we get back on the sleigh?
-No.
I can't do the performance
without my lucky pitch pipe.
Once I lost it
before my third grade holiday concert,
and I threw up on stage.
Jingle Bells, Britney Smells!
[breathing heavily]
Well, at least you're not
being dramatic about it.
Why don't we just
do a little warm up
to prove you're ready
to get back out there?
[vocalizes]
Do ♪
[exhales]
[sings out of pitch] Do ♪
[breathing heavily]
[sobbing]
Rudolph, red nose alert.
Diva down.
I repeat, diva is down.
[breathing heavily]
There, there, little diva.
[Megan] Where's Britney?
Bats!
Come on.
Being in the performance
was supposed to be
your gift from me.
I'm your Secret Santa.
You're supposed
to keep that a secret.
Now that's been
taken from me too.
Where will it end?
[crying]
[Megan] Britney,
get back here!
-[sighs]
-[sniffling]
You've left me no choice.
Britney, look at me.
[spooky music playing]
You will get on stage
and perform
with the confidence
of the star you are.
Yes, I'm a star.
You got this, Britney!
[Megan] Five, six,
seven, eight.
[pop music
playing on stereo]
How did you fix her so fast?
You know, just a little
mind control.
Ah, yes, that always
works out well for you.
Uh, what is she doing?
Uh
being the star she is?
-[music stops]
-Give me my candy came back!
[creaking and crashing]
Oh, man.
I just decked those halls.
What in the jingle bell
is going on out here?
Britney went reindeer-rogue.
Whoa.
What just happened?
Dean, allow me to explain--
Oh, the pageant
is in 24 hours,
and now we're walking
in a winter wonder dump.
Britney, I need you
to stay off the stage
for the sake of the show
and the insurance policy
that I did not pay for.
Yes!
Santa, I tried.
[Spotlights] Thank you,
Sister Dean.
[girls gasp]
Y'all are at a ten,
and I need you at a two.
[gasps]
Maybe it's time to just get Britney
a gift card to Dunkin' Divas.
I can't give up.
Not on Britney
and not on Christmas.
I have to get her back
into that pageant.
But we may need to bring in
some professional help.
-Santa?
-No.
You want toys
or you want solutions?
I'm talking about Krampus.
Who's Krampus?
You have Santa.
We have a delightful monster
from the South Pole
who answers vampires'
solstice requests.
Cute.
Dearest Krampus,
I hope the solstice
has cursed you
with many earthworms
under your pillow.
I need your help.
You see, I'm Britney's
Secret Santa--
Is it secret, Vee? Is it?
I can't believe
Sophie wouldn't spill
one thing she wants
for Christmas
except world peace.
I know.
Like we have time for that.
I've no choice
but to go to the hereafter
and ask her grandma
what to get her.
Hold my hat.
Uh, Demi, Demi, Demi.
Sophie's grandma
is still alive.
We can just call her.
Oh, sure, let's do it
the boring way.
[electronic music playing]
Springfield Senior Living,
let me hear you
make some noise.
-[phone ringing]
-Go, go, go, go!
[phone dings]
Hi, boys.
DJ Blue Hair?
You look just like Sophie.
You mean she looks
just like me.
What can I do for you kids?
We need help coming up
with a Secret Santa gift for Sophie.
She's always so good
at giving gifts.
Because she listens.
I remember the Christmas
when she was eight.
Or was she nine? Anyhoo.
This is a really interesting
story, Ms. Blue Hair, but we're in a rush.
Do you want to get her
something special
or a meaningless
trash present?
Uh, the first one?
Then stop interrupting
and listen.
[both] Yes, DJ ma'am.
Enjoy the show.
[Vee] Britney, I'm really
sorry you got stuck here.
Let me help you.
My mother always says,
"A bloody burden halved
is a bloody burden shared."
Is your mother well?
SOS. SOS.
SOS. Have you seen
the performers?
Not since my stage career
got run over by a reindeer.
Oh. Well, everyone left
to do a pre-show warm up,
but no one has returned.
[groans]
Send the townfolk home.
Turn off the lights.
It's over.
Christmas is canceled.
Well, at least you're not
being dramatic about it.
You know, the first-years could stall
the crowd until the performers get back.
And if it comes to it,
Britney knows The Spotlights' big finale.
Oh, that's a wonderful idea.
You get those first-years
on that stage,
and Britney, you're getting
a second chance.
Christmas is saved!
Ho-ho-ho to everyone.
Hey, Britney, you okay?
No, I am not okay.
This is gonna be
Jingle Bells, Britney Smells Two,
the Final Chunks.
[sighs]
You don't need
your pitch pipe.
Look, you can do this.
The Britney I know
is confident enough
to challenge
Sabrina Carpenter to a sing off.
She did,
and she won.
I guess I can try.
But keep this handy.
[Merriweather] Places, people.
Places, everyone!
Uh, go dance or something.
Go! Go!
The show is starting.
Are you coming?
We have a visitor.
-[spooky music]
-[Krampus growling softly]
Krampus?
Bats! He must have
read my letter.
To get Britney in the show,
he got the other performers out.
I knew he wasn't delightful.
What's he gonna do to them?
Nothing if he had a big lunch.
I better go.
Here.
Take Britney's bucket.
Why do I need this?
Vee?
Why do I need this?
[ominous music playing]
Krampus?
Megan?
Any chance you're in there?
[gasps] You were in here.
Oh!
Rude. Krampus raided
my solstice Advent calendar.
Aw. But he did leave
some earthworms.

Someone locked us in here.

like nightmares
and rancid wagyu.
Hold on a second.
I'm gonna get you out.

Thanks again
for performing with me,
-not-so-Secret Santa.
-[giggles]
But you're right.
I don't need a lucky
Christmas pitch pipe
to bring
the gingerbread house down.
I'm enough.
Well, then I guess you don't need
the other gift I have for you.
You fixed my pitch pipe?
-[chuckles]
-Gimme!
I was nothing without you.
Cargos?
You shouldn't have.
You peeked, didn't you?
Yes, I did.
And I've already worn them.
Well
[giggles]
Voila!
[gasps] My favorite dessert.
Thank you, Demi.
How'd you know?
Elijah and I
called your grandma.
And after five hours
of listening to Sophie stories,
we kept hearing
about one thing you loved no matter what.
[both] Rainbow rice cake.
We also heard that you needed
extra absorbent diapers as a baby,
and that you pretended
to be a cat for an entire summer.
[giggles]
It was theater camp,
and I was in character.
Me next.
Oh, Brit,
you're my Secret Santa?
Uh, an autographed
headshot of yourself.
[laughs] Just what I wanted.
[note playing]
[in sing-song voice]
Don't sell it online yet ♪
Oh. Last but not least,
this is for you.
You were my Secret Santa?
Why didn't you tell me?
That's 'cause you're not
supposed to
Never mind.
-Aw.
-There's a bunch of pages left to fill,
since you and I are making
our own history now.
[Vee] Aw.
This is the best Secret Santa gift
I've ever gotten.
Well
it's the only Secret Santa gift
you've ever gotten,
but I'll take it.
[chuckles]
Thanks, everyone, for making
my Christmas perfect.
It was even better
than I ever imagined,
because I never imagined it
with all of you.
[chuckles]
Merry solstice, Krampus.
Guys, come on, look.
Oh, my goblins.
[all speaking indistinctly]
[Vee] Oh, my God!
Look at this
