[Rebecca] I remember Christmas
when I was a little girl.

I remember the lights,

the toys, the candy.



But, most of all,
I remember the snow. [sighs]

You know, Molly, that's what
I'd really like for Christmas.

To see it snow.

Well, Christmas isn't for two days.
Maybe we'll get some.

No, it never snows in Cape Suzette.

Off to shop till I drop.
You guys be good.

Remember, Santa's checking his list.

- Later, Becky.
- Bye.

Bye, Mom.

[electricity crackling]

Hey, Baloo! Check it out.

Oh-ho, now that's what I like to see.

A guy who gets into his work.

[chuckling]

Hi, pumpkin. Gonna help us decorate?

Nope. Gonna write Santa.

You already sent him a letter.
No fair writing two.

[Molly] Well, this is a special
delivery emergency letter.

[gasps]
My last candy cane!

Well, now. We might be able
to do something about this.

Hmm... Mm-hmm.

Yep. This is the one
to put under your pillow.

- What for?
- For the Peppermint Fairy.

- Oh, Baloo.
- You heard of the Tooth Fairy, right?

- Well, this is her cousin.
- Really? Wow!

Thanks, Baloo.

Better remember to slip a candy cane
under her pillow tonight.

[rooster crows]

[Rebecca] Wake up, Baloo!
It's an emergency!

[muttering] What? What?

The store gave me
the wrong present for Molly!

I asked for a nutcracker,
not a vegetable slicer.

Tell Wildcat to load that soap
on the plane and take care of Molly

- till I'm back, OK?
- All right.

Load Molly on the plane
until I'm back...

Molly!

- Candy cane! Candy cane! Candy cane!
- Don't tell me you forgot.

Peppermint Fairy to the rescue!

Did the Peppermint Fairy
forget something?

Oh, hi! I... See,
the Peppermint Fairy told me to...

There's no Peppermint Fairy.
You lied to a little kid!

- I was only trying to...
- I bet all that Santa Claus stuff

- you told me is bologna too.
- Oh, no, Molly cat.

- Santa Claus hates bologna.
- How can I send Santa a letter

- if there is no Santa?
- Now, wait a minute.

Of course there's a Santa Claus.

Yeah? Prove it.

OK, I will.
I'm flying you to the North Pole.

You can give your letter
to Santa in person.

- For really?
- For really. Get your coat on.

We gotta hurry...
before Rebecca gets back.

- Baloo, what are you doing?
- Don't worry, Kit.

Papa Bear's got a plan.

Louie's Place, it's your dime.
Why, deck the halls, it's Baloo.

Of course I know
it's Christmas, man. It...

Why, sure, I'll do you a favor.
What you got?

You want me to dress up as who?

OK, soap flakes.

You're all ready to go on a big trip.

[Baloo] Sorry about that, Wildcat.

No time to load the cargo.
We're taking off.

You mean you really are
going to the North Pole?

Yes. Don't worry. I'll put in
a good word for you with Santa.

That's great, but take me!
I won't say anything!

I'll sit quietly!
I'll be quiet in the back seat!

[birds calling]

- Can I look yet?
- Not yet.

You wanna spoil the surprise?

Santa's place. Who's there?

Letter for Mr. Claus.

Well, come right in.

[Molly] Wow!

[Baloo] What did I tell you?

Look, reindeer!

[Baloo] What'd you expect
at the North Pole?

- Well, gee, Molly. What's that?
- [bells jingling]

Man! You don't suppose...

Do you think it could be?

It is!

♪ Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee
hi-dee ho-ho-ho

♪ Doo-wah ♪

[whispers] Ix-nay on the ive-jay.

[clears throat]

Santa, I brought a very special friend
of mine to meet you.

Don't tell me. Molly, right?

And a cool yule to you too.

Hello, Santa. I brought you a...

Elf Waldo, my list!

Let me see. Dolly, Holly, Sally,
Polly, Molly!

Hey, this kid's grade-A,
triple gold-star, numero uno good!

Does that mean you'll give me
what I want for...?

Santa's gonna give you
everything you want.

Hang onto your sugar plums.

OK. Take a couple of these.
Some assembly required, don't worry.

- But...
- Those. Check this out. Go like this.

Wang-wang-wang. Ha ha.

You'll love that. Stick these
in here. Don't need a battery.

Make a face. [makes noise] There you go.
You'll do better than that.

I got some of this and that.
You're gonna love this.

- Thank you...
- [scats] You do your own soundtrack.

Anyway, have a couple of those and...
Did I forget this one? Here you go.

- Mr. Claus...
- Oh, now that's OK.

I promised I'd give you
what you wanted, didn't I?

- Mr. Santa...
- Remember, be real good.

On account of because Santa's watching.
Oh, yeah! Merry Christmas! Ho-ho.

- Stuff like that.
- Santa, please wait!

Thank you, but...

...all I really want
is to give you this letter.

Oh, a letter. For me?

Aw. Ain't she sweet.

Lay it on us, oh Waldo Elf.

"Dear Santa,
I only want one present this year.

It's not for me. It's for... my mom.

Could you make it snow for her?

That would be the biggest
and bestest present of all.

Love, Molly."

[gulps, chuckles]

Your wish is Santa's command,
that's for sure.

Excuse me just a minute there,
pumpkin. [chuckles]

You said I had to be Santa Claus,
not Jack Frost.

Oh, man. What are we gonna do now?

What you mean, keep her Santa-fied
for a couple of hours?

Easy, my man, I got a plan.

Kit and I'll zoom to Higher for Hire
and pick up that cargo

of soap flakes. We buzz back,
shake out the soap

and Molly'll see it snow! You see?

No way, man. You are looking
at one retired Santa.

Oh, come on, Louie. You wanna
ruin Christmas for a little kid?

Yeah, think what
the real Santa would say.

[groans]

Just keep her busy.
Sing Christmas carols or something.

- What if my customers show up?
- Have them sing too!

Crazy.

OK, Molly!

While we're waiting for the snow,
it'll be any minute, I bet.

Santa and the elves are gonna lay
a round of Jingle Bells on you.

- We are?
- We are.

A one and a two and a...

♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells

♪ Jingle all the way

♪ Oh, what fun it is to ride

♪ In a one-horse open sleigh

♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells

♪ Jingle all the way

♪ Oh, what fun it is to ride...

♪ Jingle bells
Jingle all the way

- ♪ Oh, what fun...
- Will you shut up

with the "jingle belling"?

Visions of plunder
were dancing through my head.

And you woke me up!
What is your problem?

We're getting nothing for Christmas.

Yeah, on account
of we've been really bad.

- Hey... [whispers]
- What do you mean next year

you're going to be good?

You hooligans, bad is good!

But let us not be
the hasty puddings.

You want Christmas presents?

[all] Yeah.

Is this not the season of giving?

[all] Yeah.

Then, my plundering pirates,
we shall make people

- give presents to us!
- [all] Yeah!

- To the planes!
- Yeah!

I am not usually so generous,
but Christmas comes only once a year.

Wildcat?

Why is the cargo still on the dock?
Where's the Sea Duck?

- Well...
- Where are Baloo and Kit?

[sniffling] Aw.

And where's Molly?

They took her to the North Pole
to see Santa Claus

- and left me here!
- [splashing]

How do you work this thing?

Hi, Becky. Bye, Becky.

[both] Oops.

What are you doing
with my Sudsy Wudsy soap flakes?

Well, we were gonna
sprinkle them out of a plane.

- What?
- Molly asked Santa

to make it snow for her mom.

You know, for a Christmas present.

Papa Bear was just trying
to make her wish come true.

Oh, Baloo.

"Oh, Baloo" is right.

A storm's moving in.
What else is gonna go wrong?

[clamoring]

Come on, Waldo. We always
spend Christmas Eve at Louie's.

How long you gonna keep us
out here in the rain?

We're not ready yet. We're...

We're getting the decorations ready.

- ♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells...
- You hear that?

The party started without us.
Come on, boys!

♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells

- What's the matter, sugar plum?
- Santa?

- Are you gonna make it snow soon?
- Oh, I... Yeah.

[chuckles] Ho-ho.

Any minute now. Of course, Santa's gotta
get in the right Jingle Bell mood first.

OK, one more time.

A one and a two and a...

[Baloo] Undercover elf
calling the North Pole.

Undercover elf calling the North Pole.
You read me, Santa?

The biggest and best
Christmas present of all

is on the way.

[Louie] Santa digs you
loud and clear, Rudolph.

Whew! Over easy and out.

Put on your mittens,
little Molly kittens.

Old Santa's got snow to go.

Yippee!

[laughs] Yes, Don Karnage.
There is a Santa Claus.

Did you hear that,
my merry marauders?

The biggest and best
Christmas present of all.

We have hit the jack in the pot!

[Kit] About ten miles out.

Coming into Louie's.
Stand by for Operation Snowstorm.

Ready!

- [gunfire]
- [both shout]

Pirates.

[Karnage] Merry Christmas,
Baloo type of person.

It is I, Santa Karnage.

You will fill our stockings with your
biggest and bestest present of all.

Or we will blast you to tinsel.

- [wind howling]
- [thunderclaps]

[gunfire]

Now you see here, Don Garbage.
It's Christmas Eve.

- This present is for my little girl.
- She has a point on her head.

I would practically be stealing
candy canes from a baby.

I love that!

Attack!

Oh, no! We can't outrun him
in this storm.

- What are we gonna do?
- Only thing we can do, Kit.

OK, Karny. You want a present,
you got it.

Good. They're trembling in fear.

[Baloo] Get ready, here it comes!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

[engines sputtering, backfiring]

That's enough! We got 'em!
Save the rest for Molly!

Yeow!

Wildcat, close the hatch!

[both] Whoa!

- Oh, boy!
- Yeah, snow!

[all laughing]

[bubbling]

- We've lost it all.
- No, I saved one.

Now what are we gonna tell Molly?

- ♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells
- [Louie chuckles]

Yeah, any minute now, kiddo,
you're gonna get your wish.

Snow so clean and white,
why you can wash your clothes in it.

[sniffs]

Oh, I can't wait!

- Santa. Santa...
- [pounding on door]

Come on, let us in!

Louie! What's the idea
of locking us out?

This is no Louie.
This is Santa Claus.

[all laughing]

- Hey, now, wait a minute...
- Where'd you get the crazy threads?

That's a good one!

Oh, now hold on here.
I can explain...

[crying]

Now, Molly, no! Wait...

Now what'd you guys
go and do that for?

[crying]

A lie. This was all a lie.

[Rebecca] Molly!

Molly!

Now what am I gonna
give Mom for Christmas?

[giggles]

[giggles]

Molly!

Molly? Honey, are you all right?

Now what are you doing all the way
out here without your coat on?

You don't wanna catch cold
on Christmas, do you?

Molly? What is it?

Mommy, I saw him.

Baloo, do you... see?

Uh-huh.

Hey, what you guys looking at?

Crazy.

Is that what I think it is?

Wow!

[giggling]

Hey! I finally made it work.

- How'd you do it, cuz?
- I didn't.

- Well, then who?
- Louie, my man,

you wouldn't believe me if I told you.

I would.

Merry Christmas, Mommy.
