Challenge Accepted! Disney Channel's Epic Holiday Showdown (2020) - full transcript

No. No.

Please. What is that?

What is that?

No, go away! Ooh.

Bah humbug! Shoo! Shoo, I say!

What's up, guys?

My holiday hateriners.

It's your girl Scrooge here,

back for another Scrooge Tube vent sesh.

I have to tell you
what just happened to me.

There I was, minding my own business



when a group of loud carolers
completely ruined my vibe.

What is it with everyone
this time of year,

always in a good mood?

Kissing under the mistletoe?
It's disgusting!

I can't stand the holidays.

I wish they would just disappear.

You know, I-I can't suffer
through another cheerful year

of endless singing.

It's disgusting.

Gorgeous decorations? Ew?

Children's laughter?

No, thanks!

Santa, this is going
to be the best holiday ever,

I just know it.



Wait a minute. Something's wrong here.

Put in your password.

What's my password?

Milkandcookie$, one word,
the "S" is a dollar sign.

Oh, yes.

Enough is enough!

It's time to end the holidays!

I put a curse on it all!

Humbug to holidays.

Let them be gone.

With a wave of my hands,
it'll all go wrong.

Every element vanishes
from this festive season

And let it be known
that Scrooge is the reason!

Oh, Santa, there she goes again
with the online rant.

But this one's the worst ever.
We've got to do something.

Oh, Mrs. Claus, we can fix this.

Let me put on my thinking cap.

On.

All right, I know who to ask.

We'll go to the most reliable
place for information.

-What's that?
-The internet.

Mrs. Claus, I found it,
the curse-breaking hack.

Come on. Okay.

-Follow along with me, okay?
-Okay.

"If a curse befalls for any reason,

here's how to save the holiday season."

"A series
of challenges must be completed

for Scrooge's spell
to be wholly depleted."

"Get Disney Channel stars
to help you along

with the zaniest challenges
and a few awesome songs."

"After each task,
the star nominates

the next brave contender
whose challenge awaits."

"There is but one rule
for the stars they've selected,

before thoust begin, utter..."

"Challenge accepted!"

"Each mission completed
will raise holiday cheer,

reversing the curse and saving the year!"

-Yes!
-There you have it, Mrs. C.

Now all we have to do
is get our Disney Channel fam,

we'll get them all together
and we'll get them

to do a series of challenges
and save the day.

-Yes.
-And we'll do it in style.

-Yes, we will.
-All right, give me

one of those snowflake handshakes.

You know it, Mr. C.

Well, this is hilarious.

Truly!

Santa and Mrs. Claus only have 24 hours

to break my curse.

Let's see if they can get
their Disney Channel fam

together in time.

My curse versus the stars
of Disney Channel,

an absolutely epic holiday showdown.

Ruth, Raphael, hello!

Your eyes aren't deceiving you.

It's Santa and Mrs. Claus in the flesh.

Mrs. Claus, I can't believe this is real.

It's real, and just call me Chris.

Okay, Chris.

Wow, Santa and I
are on a first-name basis.

Wow, guys. It's so great to meet you both.

You know, I've putting cookies
for you guys out

every year since I was little.

Oh, your gingerbread
is bomb, Raphael. Bomb.

You remember my cookies?

Oh, of course!
Santa is a little jolly old elf

with a sweet tooth like none other,
and he always brings me the leftovers.

Now, we are calling
because Mr. Claus and I need your help.

Ebenezer Scrooge has cursed the holidays.

The only way to save them
is for you and your Disney Channel friends

to perform a series of challenges

and raise the holiday spirit.

So much is at stake. Can you help?

Yes!

Great! Your mission will take hard work.

My number-one elf needs your help

on the assembly line
getting holiday goodies

ready for the kids.

Assembly line?

You know what that means, Raphael.

Crazy conveyer belt!

Exactly!

If you can help say those two sweet words

I love to hear.

Challenge accepted!

Oh, great! You will be meeting Santa's elf

over here in the workshop
and he'll show you what to do.

How do we get there?

With a little magic!

Welcome, children.

Are you ready to get to work?

Scrooge, what are you doing here?

Where's Santa's elf?

Well, let's just say
he got a little tied up.

Now, I will be challenging you
to a series of tasks.

Your first round is Christmas themed,

and you'll be bagging candy canes.

Now, listen, they are very fragile,
so you must be careful.

You know, you break it...

...you buy it.

Are you ready to try
your hardest to defeat me?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Let's see how you do.

Start the machine.

All right.

I see.
This is pretty slow, actually.

Okay, I think we got this.
I'll give you the first two...

-Okay.
-...I'll start at three,

and then we'll just go every other.

All right, got it.

So we can go as fast as possible.

-This is rather easy.
-All right. Yeah, not too hard.

She made it seem as if it was gonna be
the hardest thing we ever did.

It's getting a little faster.

Oh, you got two coming your way.

-That's my bad.
-Oh, shoot.

You-- oh, you got a lot--
actually a lot coming your way.

Raphael, don't-- don't let any drop.

We can't let Scrooge see that.

Just don't-- don't let them
fall on the floor.

Okay.

I'm putting more than one in a bag.

Hmm.

You're actually kind of good at this.

Next up, round two,

which is Hanukkah themed.

Now, you'll be bagging
toy dreidels, three to a bag.

Two white, one blue.

Now, this is no piece of Challah.

All right, let's speed it up.

Start the machine.

Okay.

All right, you've got two white.

-There's an uneven amount.
-One blue, is that what it is?

You know, I'll take these.

Yeah, I think-- okay.

All right, let's just.

Oh, yeah, this one seems to be--

seems to be coming a lot-- a lot faster.

Yeah, this is a lot faster.

Um, we gotta do white--
two white and one blue.

Oh, no, they're falling.

-Oh, gosh, oh, gosh.
-She won't notice if it's

-two blue, right?
-Oh, no, no, no.

Okay, I'm gonna do something drastic here.

Okay, please-- good job.
Bring me some, Raphael.

-Okay, got it.
-Hurry.

Okay, um, if we just kind of push 'em,

we can stall them.

Oh, no, I hear Scrooge.

Oh, that was so hard, wasn't it?

Boo-hoo.

Maybe we should cancel this challenge

just like I canceled the holidays,

and we can all go home.

No, no, no. We'll try again.

Yeah, um, we'll work harder.

Oh, you will?
Well, you better work faster, too.

This is your last round.

Now, I'm going to have you
decorate Kwanzaa cupcakes,

and they better look fabulous.

Absolutely fabulous, just like this.

And only 50 can go by undecorated

or else you lose this challenge.

-Well...
-We can do it.

-We can do it.
-Let's see if you can.

Make it even faster this time.

Start the machine!

Raphael, this has to be perfect,
so none goes by untouched.

Okay, go. Um...

-Oh, this is-- yes, okay.
-Oh, gosh! Ah, this is hard.

You know what? Let me just--
Let me just--

Here, I’ be just one second.

I'll take this side. Oh, oh, oh.

Raphael, catch, catch.

Oh, yeah. Oh!

-I gotta-- I gotta hide this.
-Gotta...

-Okay.
-Hold on, hold on!

We gotta switch, switch.

Okay, yes.

Don't forget the Kwanzaa toppers.

-I'm trying.
-I see some already.

Oh, oh! Oh, my gosh.

My shoes are getting so dirty.

I think we're doing okay.

- Ahem!
- Oh, Scrooge!

Stop the machine!

Well, let's just say that wasn't perfect.

But I've got to give it to you.

You both worked hard and got through it.

So I guess you won this challenge.

Yay! Whoo!

But I'm not happy about it.

Good job!

Whoo! I'll take one of those.

That's a great idea.

That first challenge
was everything, Mrs. Claus.

I'm fa-la-la-loving it.

Oh, okay, Santa. listen, no matter what

Ebenezer does to Scrooge things up,

I know that we will work even harder

and snow her who's boss.

You know,
this holiday challenge

might end up epic after all,

with the wrapping
and the singing and dancing

and dreams coming true.

I wonder who's coming next.
We'll have to see.

So, one challenge down,

way more to go to save the holidays

and reverse Scrooge's curse.

Right, Mrs. Claus?

And, ladies, that is how you mix up

Mrs. Claus's famous cookie dough.

Uh, Mrs. Claus, what are you doing?

Wh-- it's my weekly video chat
with Kylee, Meg, and Chandler.

We do it every Tuesday, Santa.

First I've heard of it,

but what about the magical challenge?

Oh, right, the magical challenge.

Hi, Chandler. Hi, Kylee, Meg.

I'm sorry to interrupt,
but we need your help.

You all have a friend, Milo Manheim.

-Oh, yeah.
-Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, right. You know, Milo says

that he's un-prankable,
so getting him good

would really raise holiday spirits

like we've never seen before.

So you're gonna surprise him
and transform his car.

That's right. We need you to decorate

Milo's car, turning it
into my number-one reindeer.

You know, the guy
with the red nose, Rudolph.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, make it look fly.

Like it could fly Santa's sleigh.

Yeah, we'll totally do that.

Then say the magic words.

Challenge accepted.

That's Milo's car. He's here.

-We got him.
-The coast is clear. Let's go.

-You got it?
-I got it, I can do this.

Let's go, let's go.

Can you get the mesh ready?

Yeah, perfect.

Whoo! Oh, yes, this is amazing.

Yo, that was amazing.

Air high five.

Whoo!

-All right, what's next?
-Decoration.

-Do you want to do the smile?
-Yes, I do.

-Okay, and I have the antlers.
-Okay.

This looks fun.

Ah!

Milo's always pranking us.
It's payback time.

How do I put the smile on?

I don't know.
Do you know where the nose is?

I don't know where the nose is.

-Where's the nose?
-I don't "nose."

-Oh, I found the nose!
-Yay! Whoo-hoo!

-Okay.
-Oh, no.

He's gonna freak out.

This is amazing.

- Do you have some tape?
- Here, ready?

-Yep.
-Catch.

Sports!

We have to put the finishing touches on.

Time for the eyes.

-Okay.
-Oh, they're so cute.

-I got the nose.
-Yay!

Okay, let's get the tail ready.

How much time do we have?

He should be coming out any minute.

I think he's coming. We should be quick.

How does it look? How does it look?

-Cute.
-It's cute? Yay, we did it!

Okay!

My car!

Surprise!

Oh!

We really got you.

I'm a big prankster,
you guys know that.

But it kinda feels good to get
the prank once in a while.

-I like it.
-We have to save the holiday.

I can't even be mad at you guys.
It looks awesome.

-Yay.
-What's her name?

-Penelope?
-Penelope!

- I love it!
- Penelope!

- Ooh! This is awesome. This is awesome.
- Check the tail.

Hey, what? There's a tail?

Hey! It's like a unicorn tail.
Very clever.

Yeah, it's a reindeer unicorn.

-We know.
-You guys are perfect.

Happy holidays.

Wow, ladies, you did it.
You pranked the unprankable.

And, oh, those antlers? Genius?

Now, who do you have in mind
for our next challenge?

It's gotta be Now United.

Everybody needs music right now,

and if they sing a fun song,

we know that'll help us keep the holidays.

Oh, yeah, they'll "Jingle Bell Rock" it.

- Thank you, ladies.
- Thanks, Santa!

For this next challenge,
we've got the magic

of Now United
to help us save the holidays.

We need you guys to sing your hearts out,

bringing the awesomeness
of all your voices together.

It will help raise the holiday spirit,

and we need it now more than ever.

Are you all in?

What do you guys think?

Challenge accepted!

Just hear those sleigh bells

We're snuggled up together

Ring-a-ling-a-ling-a ding, dong, ding

Let's take the road before us

That was amazing.

We need our next challengers. Who's next?

Um, let's see. Now United
actually just DM'd me

and they nominated

Ava Kolker, Ramon Reed, and Will Buie.

-Oh, those are good choices.
-Great.

These stars are good,

and who knows who they'll nominate next?

It could be Ava Kolker
with her holiday cheer

or Mallory Mahoney
with her boundless talent.

Oh, that's a lot of names.
I don't trust it one bit.

What's up, guys?
It's your girl Scrooge again.

Can you believe
these Disney Channel stars?

I mean, really.

They will stop at nothing
to save the holidays.

Actually, though, they are
kind of good, aren't they?

But it's like, why can't
they just leave me alone?

You know, leave me alone
and let me have this one thing,

just this one year.

But actually we know
that nothing is good enough

or great enough to stop my curse.

Anyway, thanks for all the thumbs down.

Haters gonna hate.

Ava, Ramon, Will, hello-ho-ho-ho-ho.

OMG, Santa, Mrs. Claus?
Is that really you?

Ramon? Ramon! We can't hear you!

Turn your mic on.

Sorry! Hi, guys!

Oh, man, this is such an honor.

Ramon, now we can hear you
but we can't see you.

Turn on your video.

Wow, you all look amazing.

Do you have a second?
Because we need a little favor.

-Wanna help?
-Yes!

We're asking you
to complete an epic wrap battle.

And since Mrs. Claus and I
are busy in the North Pole,

you'll be guided through the challenge

the only way to communicate
with teens these days, right?

- Through text messages.
- Yeah.

All right, are you up for the challenge?

Challenge accepted!

Yes!

Whoa!

Santa hooked it up.

Wow.

Wow.

Hey, I just got a text.

Okay, it says,
"For the first part of the challenge,

you have to wrap
an unusually shaped object

and make it look good enough
to fit under Santa's tree.

You'd better get wrapping
'cause you'll only have ten minutes."

Ten minutes?

Okay, ready? On your marks, get set, go!

Oh, wow!

Where's the end?

- This is wrap-tastic right here.
- Exactly.

Okay, I got it.

Okay!

What!

-Okay.
-Tape!

I think I-- that's tape down.

Don't worry, guys.
We won't let Santa down.

We got this, we got this.

Yeah.

OMG, it's so hard to wrap

when you don't have, like,
clean, straight edges.

Hopefully they won't be able to notice

the giant inside out part.

You guys, five minutes!

Oh, this is actually looking pretty good.

Oh, wow. Okay, only two minutes left.

Two minutes? Oh, man.

- Precision.
- Like what I did.

Okay, I think that--

I think Scrooge is trying to sabotage us

with these unusually shaped objects.

- Me, too.
- Maybe.

Only one minute left.
You guys, we better hurry up!

- One minute?
- Yep!

Oh, maybe we should
add some sound to this,

put some bells on it.

Oh, just tape it right there.

Ten, nine, eight...

Seven, six, five,

four, three, two,

- one--
- Hands up!

We did it, you guys! Air high five!

Ramon, yours is so good!

Really? I-- I love your snow method.

-I think it looks really good.
-I know. I think mine

-ended up pretty well.
-I think I'm sweating. Whoo!

Oh, man. I got a text!

"You wrapped weird shapes

and they turned out a little weird.

Now you’ need to step it up.

In this challenge,
you'll be wrapping a box

with a holiday theme.

Make it look fantastic,
fierce, and festive.

Grab your gift boxes,
shout out your holiday theme,

and get started
'cause you only have ten minutes."

Ten minutes?

Uh, I celebrate Kwanzaa
so I'll take Kwanzaa.

I celebrate Hanukkah,
so I'll take Hanukkah.

I'll take Christmas.

All right, let's go
a little faster on this one.

- Got it.
- Let's do it!

- Go!
- All right.

Oh, man, this is so exciting.

I know, it's so cool.

Blue is like my fave-- wow,
this is a lot of wrapping paper.

Oh, my goodness. I'm gonna need to scoot

some of my stuff over.

Remember, Santa said
to make them beautiful.

I think we can do that.

Gotta make sure it's perfect.

I'm gonna put some candy on mine

so my gift's gonna be sweet.

So, Hanukkah is a really, really
important and awesome holiday

because it is the story
of when there were eight nights,

but they only had oil for one night

to light this candle,
and it ended up lasting

for eight entire nights, so every night,

you get the menorah
and you light a different candle

for eight nights,
and I think it's really cool,

and I love how it kinda like
stands for something

that happened in the past.
It makes me feel

a lot more connected
to, like, my heritage and ancestry.

One super cool thing that my family does

around Christmastime
is we have this special elf.

- Ooh, that's smart.
- Hey.

And every single night,
it hides in a new spot,

and every morning before school,

I'd wake up and I'd try to find it.

He always hides in different spots,

and we can't touch him.
And if we touch him,

he tells Santa and we'll get in trouble.

We might get coal in our stockings,

so we wouldn't want that to happen.

I'm gonna be using Kwanza colors
on my gift box,

red, green, and black.

When me and my family
celebrate Kwanzaa at home,

it's really just a celebration
of our culture

and also of just life in general.

So we just love to sit around, play games,

uh, eat together--
that's my favorite part, the food.

We only have five minutes left.

Five minutes?
Okay, we gotta pick up the pace.

This fabric's so pretty.

It's gonna look so good with the dreidels.

- Come on, guys.
- Oh, no.

This tape is sticking to me.

One minute left! One minute left!

- Are you serious?
- Yes.

Okay, I think I'm close.

I only have one dreidle to go.

Where can I put it?

-Ooh, right here.
-Just a few more candies left.

Thirty seconds, guys, thirty seconds!

We need to add more tape.
Oh, shoot! Oh, shoot! No!

Ten, nine...

Eight, seven, six,

five, four, three,

two, one!

Whoo! We did it!

-Oh, my God.
-Great job, guys!

It's so good! We did it!

Guys! Santa's calling!

Ho! Ho! Ho! Amazing job, kids!

You had a slow start, but you wrapped

really beautiful presents that
represented all the holidays,

and that means so much to us all.

Yes, it does! Now, who do you
want to continue this journey

to Scrooge's inevitable defeat?

We think our Raven's homies!
Issac Ryan Brown,

Navia Robinson, Sky Katz,
and Jason Maybaum are the ones!

They have mad skills and love
the holidays as much as us.

That's what I'm talkin' about!
Great choices!

Thank you, guys, for all your help!

Later, Mr. and Mrs. Claus!

Is everybody on?

Ho! Ho! Ho! It's my friends,

Issac, Navia, Sky, and Jason!

Thanks for yule-logging on!

For your challenge, we need you to bring

your spirit of the season to someone
who needs it most.

Your friend, Anneliese van der Pol.

No, no, no, no, no.
She's not into carols, all right?

She goes to bed early.
She's not into "drop-bys."

She's a tough nut to crack.

Even a nutcracker couldn't do it.

Oh, but the holidays are at stake!

And we need you! Please!

Go to her house and sing your hearts out.

She needs to get all the holiday
feels when you sing to her.

All night long. Come on.

Come on. Can you do it?

Wait. We get to stay up late?

Like, past bedtime?

Well... yeah.

I mean,
I-I guess that is part of the deal.

Well, in that case...

Challenge accepted!

Hey, guys! What you doing here?

On the first day of Christmas
my true love sent to me

A partridge in a pear tree

That's great, guys!

On the second day of Christmas

My true love sent to me
two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

Great, really great.
I've got an early call tomorrow.

On the third day of Christmas
my true love sent to me

Three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

Thank you. Goodnight!

On the fourth day of Christmas
my true love--

- Aww, man.
- That's a shame.

On the fifth day of Christmas

What is happening?

My true love sent to me
five ugly sweaters

You don't even know the lyrics?
What are you doing here?

Four calling birds

Three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

Ugh! Get out of here!

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa la la la la la la la la

What the heck the halls?

'Tis the season to be jolly

Fa la la la la la la la la

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas

And a Happy New Year

Good tidings we bring

Stop singing!

And I'll have some out here

I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay

And when it's dry and ready
then dreidel I shall play

Oh! Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made it out of clay

Oh, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
now dreidel I shall play

It has a lovely body
with legs so short and thin

And when it gets all tired
it drops and then I win

Bells on bobtails ring

Making spirits bright

What fun it is to laugh
and sing a sleighing song tonight

Oh! Jingle bells, jingle bells
jingle all the way

Stop! Stop! Stop!

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh

Hey! Jingle bells, jingle bells,
jingle all the way

Stop! Stop!

Oh, what fun it is to ride
in a one-horse open sleigh

Hey!

-Yeah!
-Whoo!

I wish that Santa
and Mrs. Claus heard that.

We "sleighed" it all night long.

We did hear. Let me just say,
there were good moments.

There were a few pitch-y moments.

Mm... yeah, but we are so proud.
We are so proud

you kids were
all-through-the-night awesome,

but we still need more holiday spirit,

so, who's up next?

Uh... let's see.

I'm thinking Trevor Tordjman?

Aww... he's a great dancer!

We need some smooth moves like that

-to save the holidays.
-Whoo.

-Bye!
-Bye!

Hey, Mrs. Claus, hey!

Even more's coming their way.

The hardest challenges ever.

With Trevor's dancing,

Mallory and Christian's
decked-out trees,

and Megan's dream-come-true duet.

Who knows what might come next
in this Epic Holiday Showdown?

Here we are, five challenges down.

And this next one's gonna put a little

-festive funk in the holidays.
-Ooh, I know! I can't wait!

Let's get to it! Let's get Trevor here
right now.

-Okay, ready?
-Ready?

-Hah!
-Oh! Where am I?

The North Pole? Awesome! Mr. Santa!

-Mrs. Santa! What up!
-Hi! Hi!

Okay, I know you're both
star struck, but no selfies.

-Oh. Oh. Okay.
-Okay?

But for reals, been to long!

Man, I haven't seen you
since I sat on you lap last year.

Yeah, yeah.

Let me guess...
I'm here because of this curse.

Yes, you are.

To help break Scrooge's curse, we need you

to teach some old-timers how to get down.

Oh!

I am 1,749 years old!

Besides, Santa just doesn't boogie!
I don't do this!

My idea of "getting down"
is going down a chimney!

This is crazy! How about if I just...

eat some gingerbread cookies
and watch you two cut a rug?

Now, listen here, Santa.

For this challenge to work,

I'm gonna need a little
bit of boogie, okay?

How about if I give you, like,

twenty-seven percent boogie?

Twenty-seven percent Well, I guess
that's better than nothing, right?

Okay. All right, guys!
We gonna do this thing or what?

Challenge accepted!

-All right. Are you both ready...
-Okay.

...to pick up some skills
from yours truly,

in the name of saving the holidays?

Yes!

Here we go. Ready? We're gonna start

with a little thing I like to call

"The Gingerbread Slide." Let's get it.

He's double-fisting gingerbread.

All right, Santa, focus!

"Gingerbread Slide." I'm with ya.

Come on, walk in, Santa. I need you here.

Ready? We're gonna lean back, celebrate.

-Boom, boom. Big celebration.
-Lean it. Celebrate.

Then we're gonna slide forward. "Hey!"

-Hey!
-Show 'em that belly, Santa.

-Boom. Yes?
-Oh, right there.

Then we're gonna swing
these hips. One. Two.

-Three. Four.
-Oh, Santa knows this.

Let me see that, Santa. Yeah!

Ready? We're gonna lean forward. Boom.

Side. Back. We say "nope." Boom, boom.

Then we bring in those presents.
Bring 'em in, bring 'em in.

All the presents. All the presents.

We say, "Yes, I got presents!"
We say, "That's wassup."

All right, we're swinging Santa's Bag.

Full of presents. It's heavy.
It's heavy. Right?

Every year it's heavy.
Ready? Swing this thing.

Swing it! Then throw it over the shoulder.

-Boom! And it's heavy.
-Boom! Heavy!

-One. Two. Three. Four.
-Yeah.

Then we're gonna step out.
We go right, left.

-Back up. Jack it up. Boom.
-Jack it up!

Transition, wave it in.
And bring it back. All right.

Now we're ready for the Gingerbread Slide.
Y'all ready?

Oh, my gosh. I've never been
so ready for anything in my life.

-Let's go, Trevor! Come on!
-All right.

Show me that Gingerbread Slide,
Mrs. Santa. Ready?

We slide to the right. One. Two.

-Feel the groove.
-I feel it!

-And left. Hey, two, three.
-Do you feel it, Kris?

Four. You feel it, Kris?

Let me see that nay, nay.
Back it up. Grab the belly.

-Unh! Two, three, four.
-Mmmmm.

Now, my personal favorite move,
the Menorah Move.

-I love this!
-Yes.

We got eight candles. We need our ninth.

-It's all in the head, right?
-Oh! It's the head.

Now we're gonna go one, two, three, four.

-That's a menorah. Be a Menorah. Stay lit.
-I love it.

-I love it.
-I know we can't go out. Right?

Now we're gonna repeat
the Gingerbread Slide.

To the right, one, two, three, four.

Back to the left. Hey, two, three, four.

We repeat this, right left, right left.

Pull it up. Boom. Hit.
We transition it in.

And we pose. We're out.

Yo, y'all killed it. You looked good.

I mean...

I wouldn't believe you're 1,700 years old.

-Well...
-1,749, brah.

-Oh, wow.
-Santa can speak for himself.

-I'm only 1,650.
-Yeah, okay.

There we go. That makes sense. All right.

-We ready for some music?
-Yes.

Let's hit it!

Whoo! Slide it out!

Left, side, back!

-Say no! Bring it in.
-Come on, Santa!

-Come on, Santa!
-Swing that bag! Whoo!

-Let's go!
-Come on, come on, come on!

Bring it up. Transition.

Santa, you gotta slide with me.

-Slide with me! Come on!
-Hey, hey!

-To the left.
-Slide with me! Come on!

Nay, nay! Hit the Menorah!

-Hey!
-Hey, I like that move!

-To the right.
-Slide! Come on, Santa, give me one.

-Yeah! All right!
-That's what's up!

Whoo! Yeah!

Wow! You both were amazing!

Yeah, I think we all helped.
Especially you, Mr. Claus.

Thanks.

You made that Gingerbread Slide
ginger snappy.

Ha, ha! I love it!
And you tried your best.

-That's really what matters.
-Yeah.

So, Trevor, listen.
I know you said "no selfies,"

but, could we get a photo?

Of course, we're close now.

-Aww, yes!
-Oh, that's great.

-Come on, bring it in... Oh!
-Okay, okay, now, now...

If you could just take pictures, please?

Oh, okay, no, totally.
No problem. No problem.

- All right. Say "egg nog."
- Egg nog!

Are you getting my angles?
Right here?

Hold it up.

-All right. Let me get in here.
-Oh.

-Hey!
-Happy Holidays!

Hey!

-Ha, ha! That is great!
-Thank you, Trevor!

Now our next challenge
is pretty important.

So we need some peeps, Trevor,
who can really handle things.

Who are you thinking?

How about my buds, Mallory Mahoney
and Christian J. Simon?

They're perfect for this. For real.

They know that holiday hard work.

Those are great picks, Trevor.

Really amazing picks.

Thank you so much for all your help.

-Of course.
-We will see you very soon.

All right.
Let me Gingerbread Slide up outta here.

Slide!

Mallory! Christian! Happy holidays!

Wait! Is that Santa and Mrs. Claus?

Of course it is!
Haven't you seen the news?

They've been busy.

I've been camping off the grid.
What's going on?

Oh! So you don't know
about the holiday curse thing.

How Scrooge took the holidays
and Santa and Mrs. Claus

are trying to help save them
through a series of challenges

to raise the holiday spirit.
Phew! That was a lot.

Wow. That is exactly what's going on.

I'm so glad we don't
have to explain that again

because we've been saying it
over and over and over again.

-I got you, Mr. and Mrs. C.
-Okay, so for your challenge,

we need you each
to decorate a holiday tree.

- Mm-hmm.
- Oh! We can totally do that!

I'm a pro at stringing lights

and Christian is amazing with garland.

That's great because each
of your trees must include

the blingiest lights.
The sickest ornaments.

And amazing garland
and the prettiest tree topper.

Yes, plus, something super personal

that is so you.
Make it magical. Make it beautiful.

And make it your own.

We got this!

Challenge accepted!

All right, you better get to it.
You need to finish before...

-mmm... the sun goes down.
-Yep, yep.

So that's only ten minutes!

So you better hurry and deck
your trees ready... set...

Decorate!

Okay! We only have ten minutes!

-Let's go! Uh, garland.
-Okay!

Okay, I'm gonna start off
with this beautiful garland.

You guys see this? It's falling,

but that's okay. We gotta keep going.

I'm from Texas,
so I go for the big things first.

-You gotta fill this tree--
-Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no!

Family ornament fell. That's okay.

I'll leave it right here.

All right, I'm gonna pick up this garland.

And it's this way.

I'm really spinning around right now.

Ooh. Okay. All right.

How you doing over there, Mallory?

Starting with some sparkles now.

Okay, you know what?
I'm gonna put these right here.

I "donut" even know what
I'm what I'm doing right now.

I see what you did there.
I see what you did there.

I have these beautiful, like,
icicle, white paint brushes--

ornaments that I will be using.

Ice cream cones!

Mallory, I love art.
Look at this paint palette ornament.

-Isn't it nice?
-That is so cool!

I know, right?
Okay, so I'm hanging that up right now.

I got the yellow.
I got the blue. You know what?

I'm gonna move the yellow.

-We only have two minutes left! Okay!
-What? Oh, no!

O. M. G. Okay.

-This is not enough time!
-I know! It's not enough!

We got this! We got this!

Now I am putting some pictures of me
and my new little puppy, Lord Stanley, up.

Ah! Lord Stanley. I love that name.

'Cause we can't have Christmas
without puppies.

Right?

I love making my tree personal, Mallory.

I got pictures of my family.

And I got some art
because I love doing art on my off-time.

So I'm doing that.

Oh, look! We got a little disco ball!

Ooh! Hey, I got some of those, too!

Oh, really?

-Look! Disco party!
-Oh! It's a party! Okay.

We got 30 seconds left!

-We have to get to our toppers!
-Oh, wow! Oh, wow!

-We gotta get to the toppers.
-Uh...

-Whoo!
-Go, go, go!

Go, go!

Hey! You know what I just realized?

My tree topper matches my outfit.

I didn't even notice!

Wow! Super nice! Okay!

-Okay!
-Are you ready?

Five, four, three,

two, one!

Happy holidays!

Whoa ho, whoa ho!
Those trees are incredible!

They're so lit!

Mallory and Christian, you did it!

Look at those donut
and ice cream ornaments.

They look delicious.

Um, we need that on our tree, Mrs. Claus.

There will only be carrot
and celery ornaments for you, sir.

But I'm carb-loading for the big day!

Now, guys, who do you think
can handle the next challenge?

It will not be easy.

Mallory and I want Meg Donnelly
to sing a song.

-Great idea. Thanks, guys!
-Yeah.

-Bye, Santa Claus!
-Bye, Mrs. Claus!

It looks like I'll have to
bring out my special sauce,

if these Disney Channel kids
have any more tricks up their sleeves.

And I heard they'll be
making duet dreams

come true with Meg Donnelly.

We can't have that kind
of magic in the mix!

It's just too strong!

What's up, guys?

I've got a few more chances
to try and win this thing.

And my curse is holding strong,

but, I might need to add a little more

magic to the mix!

Hah! That's it!

Another layer of my curse to break.

I have to say,

my curses are some of the best out there.

You know, people have been talking about
my curses for years.

Years!

That spell's
really taken it out of me.

I'm going to have to take an "angry nap."

Later hateriners.

Now Scrooge's curse is even stronger.

It's gonna take something
pretty incredible

to put a dent in this one.

-Meg!
-I'm here, you guys!

There you are! It is so good to see you!

Meg, you were nominated
to complete another challenge

to save the holidays
from Scrooge's evil plan.

She just strengthened her curse
so we desperately need you.

This... is your moment.

I can do this, Santa.

Here's the thing.
A super special Zombies fan

sent me a letter saying how much
she loves you and your voice.

That's so sweet.
I-I can't wait to see who it is!

All right. You know what?

We have something even better in mind.

For this challenge,
we want you to spread holiday cheer

by singing a duet with her.

That's amazing! Challenge accepted!

Take a look at your
amazing duet partner Kia.

Hey!

I've been singing ever since
I was a little girl.

Basically, ever since I had my voice,
to be honest.

Music is so incredibly special

because it allows people to really
express their feelings

through beautiful songs
and beautiful words.

Music is just incredibly powerful.

I really love "Zombies"

and all the Disney Channel movies

because of all the music and dancing.

It's absolutely spectacular.

If I had one holiday wish
to duet with one Disney star,

it would definitely be Meg Donnelly.

-Kia, are you ready?
-Let's do this.

Joy to the world

The Lord has come

Let earth receive her King

Let every heart

Prepare Him room

And Heaven and nature sing

And Heaven and nature sing

And Heaven, and Heaven

And nature sing

Joy to the world

The Savior reigns

Let men

Their songs employ

While fields and floods

Rocks, hills, and plains

Repeat the sounding joy

Repeat the sounding joy

Repeat the sounding joy

Repeat the sounding joy

Repeat, repeat

The sounding joy

Joy to the world

Joy to the world

Joy to the world

Joy to the world

Joy to the world
and every boy and girl

It's time for us to celebrate

Do it now don't hesitate

Sing it out loud
'cause you should be proud

Of the person that you are
bright as a shining star

That's the difference we can make

Make the world a better place

Use the joy in your heart
and the smile on your face

Fill the holidays with love,
happiness, and cheer

This is Issac wishing you

A safe and happy new year what's up

He rules the earth

With truth and grace

And makes the nations prove

The glories of

His righteousness

And wonders of His love

And wonders of His love

And wonders

And wonders of His love

And wonders

And wonders of His love

Joy to the world!

We did it! Thank you, Issac!

That was so great, ladies.

You both sounded awesome.

Yeah. All that holiday spirit

just warmed my holiday heart.

-Thank you.
-It felt really good.

Let's take a look at how we're doing

in taking out Scrooge's curse.

Hmm. Scrooge seems to be
holding strong with that curse.

I'm afraid we're gonna lose the holidays.

That can't be right. There has to be a way

to push a little harder
with one more challenge.

Listen, Mrs. Claus and I
will figure this out.

You've done enough. Thank you so much
for your beautiful voices.

Meg and Kia, even if we don't
get the holidays back,

you still made this year so special.

Oh, Santa, what are we gonna do?

There's only one challenge left,

and I can't imagine
they can draw up something in time.

These holidays are peanut
butter and jelly toast.

Mrs. Claus, I know we haven't
broken Scrooge's curse,

but all these challenges,
all the hard work, well,

this is exactly
what the holidays are about.

-Coming together for good.
-Yeah, you know, you're right.

Even if this curse is unbreakable,

I am just so proud of everyone.

You better believe we will
figure out a way

to defeat Scrooge.

We just need something
real unconventional.

Something that'll knock her off her toes.

Hello? Hello, hello, hello?

-Do you hear that?
-I think it's coming from your butt.

What? No. It's coming from my satchel.

Uh, season's greetings. This is Santa.

Santa, is that really you?

It's me, your best friend Cricket.

Wait a second,
did you just butt dial me?

Of course not!

I-- I was calling you. Right, Mrs. Claus?

Hello, Cricket.
Um, uh, we're trying to break

this evil curse and, and, oh, oh--
we need you to do a challenge.

Good save.

So you two are breaking an evil curse,
huh? Well, what's in it for me?

Hmm, let's see. Um...

we currently have you
on the "so so" list.

But, if you help us out--

we could move you over
to the "nice" list.

Cool. What's the challenge, my dudes?

Prank call Ebenezer Scrooge

and make her say she loves the holidays.

Ha! Challenge accepted.

This'll be easier than stealing
my dad's tractor.

Okay, transferring you to Scrooge.

Scrooge speaking.

-What do you want?
-Howdy, Scrooge.

May I please speak with, uh,
Olive D. Holidays?

I'm sorry, Olive who?

Olive D. Holidays. Can you say
that name back for me?

Olive D--
I know what you're trying to do.

Nice try, you little imp! Ha!

Who is that? Give me that!

How dare you call my grandson an imp?

Only I get to do that!

Well, your mischievous child
was trying to trick me

into saying I love the hol--
I'm not going to say it!

Gramma, we need to make Scrooge say
she loves the holidays

to break an evil curse.

Mm, that sounds weird, but sure.

Now you listen here, you devil woman!

You're gonna tell my grandson
you love the holidays

or I'm gonna jam my five pound
fruitcake in your craw!

No, please!

I got it as a gift in 1978!

Not the fruitcake!
Anything but the fruitcake!

It has candied prunes.

I love the holidays, okay?

Great work, Cricket!

Bingo, bango.

So does this mean I'm on the "nice" list?

Well, Cricket, I mean,
you're good, but, um,

let's see, um, not so sure about Gramma.

Yeah, it checks out.

Bye, Cricket.

Bye. Remember that Christmas
is December 25th!

Uh, Cricket,
we're well aware of that. Thank you.

We just got an important update.

-Let's get everyone on a video call.
-Okay. Yeah.

Hey, everyone, Mrs. Claus and I
just received this candygram

from our elves here at the North Pole.

They've been keeping track
of our challenges.

They've checked it twice
and the verdict is in.

-Oh, boy.
-Oh!

Challenges completed.

The holidays are saved! We did it!

Scrooge lost the battle.

The holidays are yours once again.

We did it! We did it!
We did it! We did it!

No! No! No! Bah hum--

Oh, who am I kidding? I love the holidays!

Oh, we know you do, we know you do.

Thank you so much to all
our Disney Channel friends

who helped us. You know, Santa,
I said at the start of this

this was going to be the best
holiday ever, and it is.

Mm-hmm. You are right, Mrs. Claus.

-Yes, yes, yes.
-And to all of you at home,

remember this holiday season,
the best gift of all

is spending time
with the people you love most.

-Right, Scrooge?
-Absolutely.

So, before we go,
we have one final challenge

-for all of you guys at home.
-Yes.

We want to see you do
the Gingerbread Slide

that Trevor taught me and Santa,

and Scrooge is gonna do it, too.

-Yes.
-And do us a favor.

-Share it with all your friends.
-Yes.
