After dinner, the group gather in the living room to exchange gifts. The Powerpuffs give the puppies their gifts, two rubber squeaky balls, two chew bones, two tug-me rope toys, and two new dishes. Foxy and Roxi yip excitedly as they begin merrily scrambling around the floor, playing with their new toys, causing the girls to giggle happily.
The three couples seat themselves on the couch together. Rebecca gets her present for Mojo out and hands it to him saying, "Mojo, this is for you. Merry Christmas." Mojo smiled and looked at the present on his lap, "Thank you, my angel. You did well with the wrapping. I wonder what's in here." Tugging the ribbon end with a light pull and placing it beside him, Mojo tore the rest of the wrappings and looked at the set of books.
Mojo said, "Dostoyevsky and Pushkin's works! Rebecca, that's very thoughtful and sweet of you!"
Rebecca smiled, "I knew you'd like them, Mojo."
Mojo said, "Like them? I'd love to read these!"
Rebecca beams happily, then suddenly notices a sad look crossing Mojo's face. "Why, Mojo Sweetie," she says worriedly. "What's wrong?" Mojo gulps audibly, feeling ashamed to even say the words. Rebecca gently takes his hand. "Don't worry, Mojo, you can tell me, I promise."
Mojo felt tears form in his eyes and said, "I didn't get you your gift. I tried to get your present, but the jewelry store was closing. I had enough money, but with the said time for the store to close and begging, pleading, telling, asking, and demanding the store keeper to let me in to buy your gift was hopeless. I'm so sorry, Rebecca. You must hate me now for being a bad boyfriend in not buying a Christmas present for you when you have already given me something."
The group exchange concerned looks. Rebecca holds Mojo close and gently dabs his tears away. "Oh, but Mojo, that's certainly not so! You're very precious to me; all I've ever wanted or needed is to spend time together with you."
Mojo sniffles. "R...really?"
Rebecca says, "Of course. Ya know, the same thing happened to me when I was trying to get you a gift from a watch shop. I tried to get this really neat watch for you, but it was closing time, too. Anyways, I still love you no matter what. I always have and always will, Mojo."
Beginning to feel much better, Mojo smiles warmly as his heart skips a rapid beat. "Oh, Becca Darling, thank you so much! I will always love you, too!" The two then hold each other close and share a kiss; from nearby, the group all look on with starry eyes. "Aww!"
Reaching into a box nearby, Deanna takes out a large wrapped box and hands it to her boyfriend. "This is for you, Ace Honey. Merry Christmas." Ace smiles happily. "Thanks, Babycakes." He then reaches over and presents her with a small wrapped box. "This is fer you, Dee. Merry Christmas." Deanna blushes slightly. "Thank you, Puddin' Pop." Snake then presents April with a small box adorned with a large red ribbon. "Here'ssss my ssssspecial gift to you, April Dear. Merry Christmassss." April beams. "Thank you, Snake Sweetie." She then presents him with a small gift box. "Here is my special present to you, Sugarpie." Snake feels a blush warm his face. "Oh, thanksssss, Honeypie."
Ace Lays the large box across his lanky legs and gently tugs the wrapping paper off, revealing a large black leather case. "Aww, thanks, Dee, a...case for my guitar." His voice trails off a bit as his face slowly falls. Deanna carefully unwraps her gift, revealing a small black velvet box. Upon opening it, she discovers a beautiful gold tennis bracelet adorned with red rubies inside. "Oh, thank you, Ace Dear, a...ruby tennis bracelet."
Snake gently tugs the wrapping paper off of his present, revealing a small credit card-like object. "Gee, thankssssss, April, a...lifetime passss to the Townsville ssssssskate park." April carefully removes the ribbon from her present and opens it up to reveal a red velvet box; upon opening it, she finds a glimmering gold chain inside. "Oh, thank you, Snake Honey, a...chain for my watch."
Deanna breathes a small sigh. "Oh, Ace it's beautiful...but I sold my jewelry box to get you that case." Ace turns to her dolefully. "I sold my guitar ta get ya dat bracelet." April turns to Snake. "I sold my watch to get you that pass." Snake breathes a hearty sigh. "And I sssssssold my sssssskateboard to get a chain for your watchsssss." Deanna looks at Ace with a twinkle in her eyes. "Oh Ace, I can't believe you gave up your most treasured possession for me." Ace gently takes her hand. "Aw Dee, you're all da music I'll ever need." The two then embrace each other in a big hug and share a kiss.
"Oh, Snake," April says blissfully as she wraps her arms around his shoulders. "We sold our favorite things to make each other happy." Snake beams. "Being together with you makessssss me the happiesssssst of all." April's eyes sparkle as she and Snake hold each other close and share a happy kiss. The group watch this very touching scene with misty eyes.
Just then, the friends here a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" Bubbles says as she flies off. Upon answering the door, the blue Powerpuff sticks her head out. "Hello? Hello?" Hearing no response, Bubbles scratches her head in perplexity. At this moment, her gaze falls on a large series of wrapped presents of varying sizes sitting on the front step; she quickly picks them up and carries them inside. "Guys! Guys!" she says excitedly. "Someone left us presents!"
Professor Utonium asks, "Really? Who sent them over?"
Bubbles says, "I don't know. But these are for Snake, Ace, Mojo, and Rebecca."
As Bubbles hands the gifts to each of her friends, they curiously remove the wrapping paper. Upon opening hers, Rebecca notes with surprise, "Why, it's a sapphire necklace and a matching set of earrings!" Mojo gasps delightedly, "Why, that's the present I was hoping to buy you!" Turning to see what's inside his own gift, Mojo says, "Oh my, a gold watch and a bottle of cologne!" Rebecca exclaims, "It's my other present for you!"
As they open their presents, Ace, Deanna, April, and Snake exclaim at once, "Hey, it's my guitar!" "It's my jewelry box!" "It'sss my sssskateboard!" "My watch!" Elated, the couples hold each other close. "Someone must have known what had happened and wanted to help us." Rebecca notes blissfully.
Mojo sighs, "This truly is a Christmas miracle."
As the group watches this touching scene with starry eyes, a curious Blossom muses, "Hmm, I wonder who could have done this?" Bubbles scratches her head. "It must have been Santa Claus, but I wonder how he knew..."
From outside the door, a familiar red suited figure watches happily. "Oh, he has his ways."
Deanna smiles, "Ace, you now might be able to play for us."
April hugs Snake and says, "I'm glad that you can use that pass for the skate park." Snake kisses his girlfriend's cheek and says, "Yeah, and you having the chain to wear for your great-grandma'sss watch."
Mojo smiled as he dabbed a little bit of cologne on his wrist, "Antonio Banderas Blue Seduction, this is a good scent." Rebecca swaps her necklace and earrings for her new gift, then she holds up her sapphire necklace and asks, "Mojo, could you put this on for me?"
Gently taking the delicate chain on each end, Mojo said, "Of course."
Rebecca moved her hair over her shoulder when Mojo began to place the necklace on her and put the clasp together. Mojo gently kissed Rebecca's cheek and said, "The earrings and necklace do look beautiful on you, my angel."
Rebecca smiled, "Thanks, Mojo. I'll be right back to put my snowflake earrings and necklace in my room, then come back to hear Ace play his guitar."
"Certainly, my sweet." Mojo replies kindly.
Rebecca leaves for a bit, then returns momentarily wearing her sapphire earrings and necklace. She then rejoins Mojo, gently taking his hand; Ace begins to play a soft tune on his guitar as the friends all begin to sing:
Mojo: "Here we are, warm and cozy by the fire's glow,"
Rebecca: "Singing songs and stealing kisses
Under the mistletoe,"
Rebecca holds a small sprig of mistletoe over Mojo's head and plants a small kiss on his cheek, causing him to blush.
Billy: "We've finished our feast,"
Arturo: "And the tastiest treats,"
April: "But the spirit of Christmas just isn't complete,"
All: "With our true friends and family,
And the memories we recall,
It's the love we share that fills the air,
And makes this the best Christmas of all."
Snake: "Ssssomething ssspecial underneath the tree,"
Powerpuffs (flying up to Rebecca with a pretty new dress): "We hope it fits you perfectly,"
Ace: "I'm makin' a wish on a sparklin' light,"
Ace and Deanna(holding each other close): "But that's not what makes this a magical ni-i-i-ght,"
All: "With our true friends and family,
And the memories we recall,
It's the love we share that fills the air,
And makes this the best Christmas of all,
It's filled with friends and warm wishes
That makes this the beeeeeest Christmas of aaaaaaaall!"
As the song concludes, the group sigh happily. "This truly is the best Christmas of all." Mojo says contentedly as a happy smile spreads across his face. "Indeed," Rebecca breathes. "And moreso that we've spent it together."
Mojo blushes deeply. "Merry Christmas, Becca Dear."
Rebecca beams happily. "Merry Christmas, Mojo Sweetie."
