The citizens of Halloween Town looked all tired after trying to find Jaycee. "Did anyone think to dredge the lake?" Mia asked.

"This morning." One of The Vampire Younglings yawned. Suddenly a familiar ghostly bark was heard.

"Do you hear that?" One of The Witch Teens asked.

"Hear what?" asked The Other Witch Teen.

"Shh!" They continued to listen. It was none other than Zero! Jaycee is back!

"At last. she has returned!" Mia exclaimed as she grabs her megaphone. "Attention, citizens of Halloween! Our Pumpkin Princess has returned home! I repeat: Our Pumpkin Princess has returned!"


Back at Finkelstein's house, Jack and Sally heard the announcement and are worried about Jaycee's decision

"What's it going to be, Pumpkin King?" Judy asked.

"We'll have to find out." Jack replied.


Jaycee was riding in a machine filled with all the stuff she took from Christmas Town.

"Where have you been?" Mia asked.

"Call a town meeting and I'll tell everyone all about it." Jaycee replied.

"When?!"

"RIGHT NOW!"

"Town meeting! Town meeting tonight!" Mia spoke in her van.


Back at Finkelstein's House.

"Deja vu all over again" Sally said.


7:00 pm

All the citizens of Halloween Town arrived at Town Hall. Jack, Sally and Judy arrived, with Jack and Sally kind of worried about Jaycee.

"Listen everyone!" Jaycee said as she appeared onstage. "I wanna tell you all about Christmas Town."

"Oh no!" Jack and Sally exclaimed as the meeting started...


TOWN MEETING SONG

JAYCEE

There are objects so peculiar

They were not to be believed

All around, things to tantalize my brain

It's a world unlike anything I've ever seen

And as hard as I try

I can't seem to describe

Like a most improbable dream

But you must believe when I tell you this

It's as real as my skull and it does exist

Here, let me show you

This is a thing called a present

The whole thing starts with a box

DEVIL JR.

A box?

is it steel?

WOLFBOY

Are there locks?

HARLEOUIN JR.

Is it filled with a pox?

DEVIL JR., WOLFBOY, HARLEQUIN JR.

A pox

How delightful, a pox

JAYCEE

If you please

Just a box with bright-colored paper

And the whole thing's topped with a bow

WITCH TEENS

A bow?

But why?

How ugly

What's in it?

What's in it?

JAYCEE

That's the point of the thing, not to know

CLOWN JR.

It's a bat

Will it bend?

CREATURE UNDER THE STAIRS

It's a rat

Will it break?

UNDERSEA GAL

Perhaps it s the head that I found in the lake

JAYCEE

Listen now, you don't understand

That's not the point of Christmas land

Now, pay attention

We pick up an oversized sock

And hang it like this on the wall

LIL' HYDE

Oh, yes! Does it still have a foot?

MEDIUM HYDE

Let me see, let me look

SMALL LIL' HYDE

Is it rotted and covered with gook?

JAYCEE

Um, let me explain

There's no foot inside, but there's candy

Or sometimes it's filled with small toys

MUMMY JR. AND WINGED DEMON

Small toys

WINGED DEMON

Do they bite?

MUMMY JR

Do they snap?

WINGED DEMON

Or explode in a sack?

CORPSE KID

Or perhaps they just spring out

And scare girls and boys

MIA

What a splendid idea

This Christmas sounds fun

I fully endorse it

Let's try it at once

JAYCEE

Everyone, please now, not so fast

There's something here that you don't quite grasp

Well, I may as well give them what they want

And the best, I must confess, I have saved for the last

For the ruler of this Christmas land

Is the son of a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice

Least that's what I've come to understand

And I've also heard it told

That his father's something to behold

Like a lobster, huge and red

When he sets out to slay with his rain gear on

Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms

That is, so I've heard it said

And on a dark, cold night

Under full moonlight

He flies into a fog

Like a vulture in the sky

And they call him Standy Claws

Well, at least they're excited

But they don't understand

That special kind of feeling in Christmas land

Oh, well...
